All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

We participated in a honeymoon trip in early April. There was a note that we needed to check in 30 minutes before the 13:30 start time, so we arrived as planned at 13:00. However, we were told to wait on the beach until 14:00, possibly because the previous group was late. There were about 8 participants in total, and we were the only Japanese. Everyone wore swimsuits with light clothing over them.

The boat ride to the site was quite fast and bumpy, which felt like an attraction in itself! I tend to get motion sickness easily, so I took motion sickness medication (Aneron) and tried to manage my hunger, but I still got seasick. We jumped in pairs, and since we were the last to go, I thought it might be better for those who get motion sickness to jump first.

The height was 150 meters, and the view while flying was breathtaking, but with the seasickness and the swaying, I felt even more nauseous while trying to enjoy the scenery. While we were returning, other participants were getting sick and vomiting into the sea. After the experience, those who wanted could purchase the photos taken during the jump.

I think I could have enjoyed it more if I hadn't gotten sick, but it was a valuable experience! If you are prone to motion sickness, please make sure to take motion sickness medication!

4月上旬にハネムーン、夫婦で参加しました。
13:30〜で30分前に受付との注意事項があったので、13:00に予定通り到着しましたが、前の組が遅れていたのか分かりませんが45分までビーチで時間潰してきてと言われ、ツアー開始は14:00頃だったと思います。
参加者は、全員で8名程。日本人は私たちだけでした。皆さん、水着を着用して上から薄手の服を着て参加していました。
沖までの船がスピードがそこそこありかなり揺れもありそれが既にアトラクションのようでした笑
私は車でもすぐに酔うので、酔い止め（アネロン）を飲んでいき、空腹にも満腹にもしないようにも気をつけていきましたが船酔いしました…笑
2人1組で順番に飛びましたが、1番最後だったので酔いやすい方は最初に飛ぶ方がいいのかなと思いました。
高さは150mで飛んでいる時の景色は圧巻なのですが、船酔いしてる上でまたフワフワ揺れるのでまたさらに酔ってなんとか吐かないように景色を見てた感じです笑
全員終わって帰る間に、他の参加者の方は酔って海に吐いてました。終わった後に、撮ってもらった写真も希望する人は購入できます。
酔わなければもっと楽しめたかなと思いますし、貴重な経験になりました！
酔いやすい人は必ず酔い止め飲んで下さい！！！

Great staff. They made us feel safe and welcome. Provided a fun environment with information, jokes and help with photos.
Will come back and do it again.

We chose this Luau experience because it was in Wakiki area. First you arrive to a mall and go to floor 4 for dinner. Dinner was outdoor under a covered area. The food quality was great and the entertainment during the meal was fantastic. Hula dancers and music. Thye even invited guests up to try hula. For us the dinner was the best part. Now on to the show.
If you are looking for a traditional Hula show at a Luau, go elsewhere. This show is in a theatre, so you are indoor. The show is Hawaiian dance thru the ages. It begins with a traditional hula dance and ends with one, but the majority of the show is Elvis and Micheal Jackson performances. Now, the quality of the performance by the performers was first class. All the singers and dancers were excellent performers, so for a show, it was well worth the money we paid. It just isn't what you think of for a traditional Luau. It is better to take a shuttle and to somewhere like Gerards if you want a traditional Luau experience including making Laies and seeing the pig pulled from the ground.

I had a reservation for the last event of the season on April 15, 2024, but due to rain, the boat could not go out. I was contacted and given the option to reschedule for another day or receive a refund. Since I had some flexibility in my itinerary, I requested to reschedule for April 16 if possible, and they agreed to operate the boat on that day as well!

I wanted my 2-year-old son, who loves whales and dolphins, to see these natural creatures, so I rescheduled. On the day of the trip, it was sunny and we were able to set sail, and we saw both whales and dolphins, which was wonderful! The English guide provided thorough information, and it was an interesting experience!

However, be careful as the address for the meeting point provided in the voucher and on the website was incorrect. If you rely on the address, you will end up at the far end of the harbor. The correct meeting point is at Pink Sails Waikiki, which you can find by searching; it’s located just before the harbor, where you turn right at the first road (with hotels on your right and continuing straight past the boats on your left). If you are traveling with small children, it can be quite a hassle, so please be cautious!

今季最後の開催日である2024/4/15に予約をしていましたが、雨天で船が出せないことに。別日に振替か返金かを選べると連絡がありました。
旅程に余裕があったため、可能なら4/16に振り替えたいと連絡すると、予定になかった4/16も船を出してくれることに！
クジラとイルカが好きな2歳の息子に自然の生き物を見せたかったので、振り替えました。当日は無事に晴れて出航できたし、クジラもイルカも見られてとてもよかったです！
英語ガイドも丁寧な内容で、興味深い体験が出来ました！

ただ、バウチャーやべるとら上で事前に連絡されていた集合場所の住所が違っていたので要注意です。
住所を頼りに行くと、ハーバーの一番奥に到着してしまいます。正しい集合場所はピンクセイルズワイキキで検索して出てくる、ハーバーの1番手前の道を右に曲がったところ（右手にホテル郡、左に船を見て真っ直ぐ進んだ先）です。
小さいお子さん連れの場合、かなりの労力を浪費することになるのでご注意ください！

It was my first time parasailing, and I had a great time! The height was sufficient, and it felt wonderful!

The communication was mostly in English, but it was very easy to understand, so I was able to communicate smoothly. Just before flying, they asked if I wanted photos, and I answered YES. They took pictures for $40! Payment was made after disembarking, so I could decide to purchase after seeing the photos, which was great! They took nearly 80 pictures, and they were all beautiful, so I decided to buy them!

One thing to note is that the boat rocked quite a bit to keep everyone entertained while on board. If you're prone to motion sickness, it's essential to take motion sickness medication.

初めてのパラセーリングでしたが、とても楽しめました！高さも十分でとても気持ちよかったです！
基本的には英語でしたが、とてもわかりやすい英語だったので、スムーズにコミュニケーションが取れました。
また飛ぶ直前に写真必要？って聞かれたため、YESと答えて$40で写真を撮ってくれました！支払いは下船後で、写真を見た上で購入を決められるのでとてもよかったです！80枚近く撮ってくれており、とても素敵な写真ばかりだったので、購入しました！

注意点としては、船に乗っている間も楽しんでもらうためか、とても揺らしてくれました。
船酔いはするので、弱い方は酔い止め必須です。

Loved the hole experience and the captain made it even better he went above and beyond to make this day great! He was very helpful the hole time very funny and explained everything very well.

The weather was great, and we were able to enjoy ourselves! The staff was cheerful and really got everyone excited. However, there was one area that we couldn't do, and since there were first-timers, it was a bit disappointing that there wasn't the latest explanation provided.

天気にも恵まれて楽しむことが出来ました！
スタッフも明るく盛り上げてくれました。
1箇所出来ないところがあったこと、初めてやる人がいたのですが最新の説明が無かったのが少し残念でした。

Loved the tour guides. The water was abnormally choppy on my trip, I wish I had taken Dramamine. The snacks were well suited for the tour. The boat is great and overall really cool. I brought a 4 and 1 year old. We saw at least 4 sea turtles and they showed us star fish. I will go again.

I enjoyed an exhilarating buggy ride while taking in the magnificent scenery and feeling the pleasant breeze! We stopped several times at photo spots, so I was able to take plenty of pictures. The staff were very kind; I got stung by a bee during the ride, but they brought me first aid and ointment, which was a huge help.

They provide bandanas to cover your face, but since the dust is intense while driving, it's definitely a good idea to have sunglasses! Your face will get really dirty, so I recommend bringing a towel or handkerchief. As for clothing, in addition to sun protection, it's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty from the dust (it gets really dirty). I had so much fun that I want to book this again when I come back to Hawaii!

壮大な景色と心地よい風にあたりながら、スリル満点のバギーを楽しめました！
途中で何度かフォトスポットで停車するので写真もたくさん撮れます。
スタッフの方は大変親切で、途中で蜂に刺されてしまったのですが、応急処置と塗り薬を持ってきてくださり大変助かりました。

顔を覆うバンダナが配布されますが、運転中砂埃がすごいのでサングラスは絶対あったほうがいいです！顔もすごい汚れるのでタオルやハンカチは持っていくと良いと思います。
洋服についても日焼け対策はもちろん、砂埃で上下汚れてもいい服装がおすすめです（めっちゃ汚れます）
とっても楽しかったのでまたハワイに来たら予約したいです！！

It was a young male guide named Kai. Despite the fact that we could hardly speak any English, he kindly guided us using his smartphone and simple words. I could feel his spirit of wanting us to enjoy ourselves to the fullest, and it was a lot of fun.

カイさんという若い男性ガイドさんでした。
こちらが英語をほとんど話せないにもかかわらずスマホや簡単な単語で、丁寧にガイドしてくれました。精一杯楽しんでもらおうという精神が感じられてとても楽しかったです。

Although it rained and we had to stay indoors, the fire show and both the hula and Tahitian performances were really wonderful! It might be a good idea to line up early to secure good seats. The food was delicious as well. It was unfortunate that the drink pickup location was hard to find, and in the end, we ran out of time to get them.

雨で室内になりましたが、ファイヤーしょーもあり、フラもタヒチアンもとてもステキでした！
早めに並んでいいお席を確保するのがいいかもです
お料理もおいしくいただきました
ドリンクの受け取り場所がわかりづらく、結局もらう時間がなくなったのが残念でした

Delicious food and drinks!
The hula dance lesson was unique to the location and very memorable!
The Blue Hawaii cocktail was sweeter than I expected.
The show itself was exciting and amazing!!

美味しい料理、ドリンク！
フラダンスのレッスンも現地ならではでとても思い出に残りました！
カクテルのブルーハワイ思ったより甘かったです。
ショー自体も盛り上がって最高です！！

AMAZING experience!!!! AMAZING crews!!! THANK YOU!!!

Had a great time the crew was so friendly and helped to take pictures and even played volleyball with the group. The boat was very nice as well lots of seating and a restroom on it. Lunch was good burgers were tasty overall the only down fall was no cold water after the first like 15 min. So I would suggest bringing and insulated bottle thats filled. Would for sure recommend and do it again!

The best way to end our Mother Daughter vacation is with a sunset & fireworks on the water!
Three Tiki did a great job reassuring our experience even though the weather was not great. Captain Mark? did a great job sailing and keeping us safe and mostly dry! LOL
The crew was great from start to finish. Friendly and accommodating they provided a cooler and ice for our BYOB.
The location was easy to find and had a great staging area with food trucks and firepits that were great after our cruise.
Overall, very happy with our experience and will definitely refer others to enjoy a memorable evening with Three Tikis

We had a great time at sandbar. We went with three small children and they had a great time despite not being interested in snorkeling/kayaking. One of the staff had a speed boat and took our family out for a cruise to look for sea turtles. We got to see a huge turtle swimming out in the ocean and it was definitely a highlight for our trip.

We participated as a couple in March, and the weather was great!

However, the seawater was a bit cold, so I wish we had a jacket to wear when we got out!

３月に夫婦で参加しましたが、天候もよく最高でした！

ただ、海水はやや冷たかったので、上がった際に着れるような上着が1枚あればと思います！

No one speaks Japanese.
I felt a bit left out.

The price is high, but the show was great!!
The food was mediocre.
I get the feeling that it's like this everywhere.

日本語できる人はいません。
おいてけぼりな感じではありたした。

値段はしますが
ショーはよかったです！！
料理は微妙でした。
どこもこんな感じかな、という感じがします。

The weather was nice, and the scenery was amazing. The staff spoke English and were very kind and friendly. I had made a reservation without a photo shoot, but I paid in cash and requested a photo shoot on the spot. They took a lot of pictures, and I think having a photo shoot makes for better memories. It was a great experience.

天気も良く、景色も最高でした。
スタッフも英語ですが、とても親切でフレンドリーでした。
写真撮影なしで予約していましたが、現金を払ってその場で写真撮影を頼みました。
たくさん撮ってくれて撮影はあったほうが思い出に残ると思います。
とてもいい経験ができました。

There was so much to see and do. We thoroughly enjoyed the demonstrations and musical presentations. We learned how to make poi, husk coconuts, and weave palm fronds, among other things. The dinner buffet was the best ever, with so much variety in the wide range of menu items. The theater presentation “The Breath of Life” was outstanding! Kudos to all the young university students who work so hard to provide such a unique cultural experience. Everyone was warm and welcoming. This was our second visit (previous one was in 1986) and we were not disappointed. We would return again in a heartbeat!

The buggy experience at Kualoa Ranch on Oahu Island is truly a wild adventure! Breathtaking scenery, adrenaline-pumping rides, and unforgettable memories await you. It's an experience you absolutely must have!

オアフ島のクアロアランチでのバギー体験は、まさにワイルドな冒険！息をのむほどの景色、アドレナリン全開の走行、そして心に残る思い出が待っています。絶対に体験すべきです！

I experienced Hawaii for the first time. It was better than I expected. (Although we were grouped with other Japanese guests at the buffet, we had a nice interaction with young honeymooners, and the show was lively with American guests.) There’s no need to worry about rain.

初めてのハワイで体験しました。想像よりも期待以上に良かったです。（ビュッフェ席は日本人の席にグルーピングされましたがハネムーンの若い方々と適度に交流、ショーは米国の観客がかなりはしゃいでいた事も相乗交換）
雨の心配は不要です。

This is the second time that we Visit the range every time we do a different tour and they always exceeded our expectation. Our tour guy was awesome and every time we learn more history about the island. I definitely recommend

Staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village made it convenient to get to the boarding area. Being pulled up suddenly was thrilling! It felt like I could see Diamond Head below. I enjoyed the aerial views for a while. The round trip on the boat, along with the enjoyable assistance, made for a wonderful time. I'm looking forward to having fun again on my next trip to Hawaii.

宿泊がヒルトンハワイアンビレッジだったので乗り場に行くのも便利でした。
引っ張ってもらって、いきなり上がって、感激！
ダイヤモンドヘッドが下に見えるかのようでした。
しばらく空の遊覧を楽しみました。
船の往復も、楽しいアテンドもあり、素敵な時間でした。
また、次のハワイの時も楽しもうと思っています。

From start to finish the staff was all engaging and professional. They worked through any language barriers and got everyone set up for the cruise. The size of the boat and number of people on board was just right, intimate but still lively and fun. There was plenty of room onboard to move around and never felt crowded. The views were gorgeous throughout. When the water got a little choppy, the back of the boat was still calm. Just a great time made better by the crew, would definitely go again.

I participated with my six-year-old daughter. The guide was entirely in English, but before the tour, a Japanese coordinator explained everything thoroughly, so I had no worries about joining. The bus arrived right on time, which was reassuring.
During the tour, I felt like I enjoyed it more than my daughter, but there were some light hiking activities along the way, which made it an active and enjoyable experience. I thought that once my daughter is a bit older, I would like to participate in horseback riding and movie tours as well.
Both the outbound and return buses were clean and spacious, which was a great help. My child did not get motion sickness at all. There are no restrooms on the bus, so make sure to take care of that beforehand.

六歳の娘と参加しました。全て英語のガイドでしたが、ツアーに参加する前に日本人のコーディネーターさんが丁寧に説明してくれて、参加に不安はありませんでした。バスも時間丁度に来てくれ、安心しました。
ツアー自体は、娘より私のほうが楽しんでいる感はありましたが、途中で軽い山登りなどもあり、アクティブに楽しめました。もう少し娘が大きくなったら、乗馬や映画ツアーなどにも参加したいなぁと思いました。
行きも帰りもバスがきれいでゆったりしていたのが助かりました。子供も特に酔うことはありませんでした。トイレは車内にないので、しっかり済ませておきましょう。

The dock was easy to find. There was lively live music on board, making the journey enjoyable.
Since it wasn't low tide, we didn't get to see the magical sandbar, but we had plenty of fun with stand-up paddleboarding, boating, and snorkeling.
On the return trip, I felt a bit cold, but I had brought extra beach towels, which helped me stay warm.

船付き場は分かりやすい場所でした。船内では盛り上がるライブミュージックがあり、到着するまでも楽しめました。
引き潮ではなかったので、幻想的なサンドバーではありませんでしたが、supやボート、シュノーケリングで十分楽しめました。
帰りの船では寒さを感じたのですが、バスタオルを多めに持参してたので凌げました。

This was by far the best cruise excursion I have ever participated in, and I’ve done quite a few on Oahu.

Pickup was well organized and on time. The ride out to the boat was pleasant.
The crew in itself felt like family. They were the nicest people, very welcoming and knowledgeable.
Captain even jumped in the water with the kids and everyone went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Bbq lunch was great.
We saw manta rays and turtles that came right up to the boat,it was a really wonderful day and I can’t tell them thank you enough.
I will absolutely book this again next time we visit.

This is the second time I come here on this adventure. Great music, captain on boat is a super nice lady. My family loved the experience, the juice and donuts are a great add on to your experience.

Before COVID, whenever I came to Hawaii, I always made sure to have dinner with live music at the Kanikapila Grill. The food is delicious, and the staff is friendly and fun. You get to enjoy a wonderful live performance, and there's nothing more to ask for. Even though they are very famous musicians, they stopped me on my way out, even from a distance, and gave me an aloha sign, which made me very happy. It turned out to be the best night in Hawaii. I will definitely go again!

コロナ前から、ハワイへ来た時は、必ずカニカピラグリルのライブ付のディナーへ来ます
ご飯も美味しいし、スタッフも気さくで楽しい
素敵なライブもみれて、言う事なし、です
とても、有名なミュージシャンの方たちなのに、帰り際に遠くだったのに、呼び止めてくれて、アロハサインとてもうれしかったです
最高のハワイの夜になりました
また、必ず行きますね
