All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

I didn't see as many beautiful fish as I was expecting. I did catch a glimpse of a turtle, which made me a bit satisfied. Given that experience, I felt the price was a bit high.

期待してた様な綺麗なお魚さんはそんなに見れませんでした。
亀は一瞬見えたんで、それで少し満足できました。
あの感じであの料金は少し高いと感じました。

I arrived just in time for the show. My seat was at the back, directly facing the stage. At the entrance, I was given a lei, which really boosted my excitement.

The show featured a variety of costumes, music, and dance, and even though it was the same performer, the quick costume changes kept the waiting time short, allowing us to enjoy the performance continuously. The final fire dance was breathtaking!

There were also interactive segments where guests could participate, such as blowing conch shells and learning dances. It was a bit disappointing not to be chosen (laughs). There was a time for couples and families to dance along to the music, but my husband was too shy to join in, which was a shame.

Additionally, the buffet food was delicious. Since I had been eating American dishes like hamburgers in the city, it was great to enjoy Hawaiian cuisine. The welcome drink, Mai Tai, was fantastic!

However, I wasn't sure how to order alcohol afterward.

Also, I got lost trying to find the venue and ended up being late, so I recommend allowing extra time to get there.

Hilton Hawaiian Village had many spots to explore, so we were able to check out the shops after the show.

Sarah was a great guide. Patient with us and friendly!! Scenery is spectacular. Highly recommend.

There was a Japanese guide, and we were able to tour the facilities smoothly. However, there is something disappointing. We were made to have lunch at 1 PM, and dinner was at 4 PM. We were not informed about this in advance...

日本人の案内人がいて、スムーズに施設を見学することができました。
しかし、残念な事があります。13時に昼食を取らされて、夕食は16時にされてしまいました。そんなことは、事前に知らせていませんでしたが…

I participated in a 2-hour mountain bike course. I was very worried about the weather after arriving in Hawaii, but I was able to join the tour without getting rained on☆

There were three cheerful foreign tour conductors, a foreign couple, a solo foreign participant, a Japanese couple, and our group, making a total of about 15 people biking around the island. Since I wasn't used to riding at first, it was great that they provided ample practice time.

It felt like we were touring movie locations, as there were famous spots used in movies like Jurassic Park and Jumanji, which would definitely excite those familiar with the films! ^ ^

Once we went to a slightly elevated area, we were greeted with stunning views, and the surroundings were filled with nature, allowing us to feel the negative ions!

The tour conductors were very nice, possibly because our group was showing such great enthusiasm! Even if you don't understand English, communication is totally possible! They took a lot of photos for us and were very kind.

The hotel pickup started around 10 AM, and we returned to Waikiki before 4 PM, so we had a lot of fun! The kids in our group also praised it as the most enjoyable part of this trip☆

It's definitely best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty and that are easy to move in! You might want to think that you will get dirty regardless of whether it rains or not. ^ ^

マウンテンバイクの2時間コースに参加しました。
ハワイに到着してからお天気がとても心配でしたが、雨に振られることなくツアーに参加できました☆

陽気な外人ツアーコンダクターが3人、外国人夫婦？とお一人様参加の外国人と、日本人夫婦と私たちグループで計15名ほどで島をマウンテンバイクで走るというものでした。
最初は乗りなれてないものなので、しっかり練習時間も設けてくれていたので良かったです。

映画のロケ地を巡る感じだったので、要所要所にジュラシックパークやジュマンジなどといった有名映画で使われた跡などもあり、映画をご存知の方であれば興奮度も増すのではないでしょうか？^ ^

少し小高い場所へ行ったらとても素晴らしい景色が溢れていたり、周りが本当に自然だらけでマイナスイオンを感じられます！

ツアーコンダクターの方も私たちのグループがとびきりいい反応を見せていたからか良くしてくれました！
英語が分からなくてもコミュニケーションは全然とれます！
写真もたくさん撮っていただいて優しかったです笑

朝10時ごろにホテルのピックアップが始まり、ワイキキに帰ってきたのも16時前とかだったので、だいぶ楽しめました！
一緒にいたグループの子たちも今回の旅で1番楽しかったと絶賛しています☆

服装は確かに汚れてもいい服、動きやすい服で行くのが1番です！
雨が降る降らないに関係なく汚れると思ったほうがいいかもですね^ ^

This is my second time participating. The weather was great, and I was able to see many fish and turtles. The Japanese guide was also available, which made it enjoyable.

2回目の参加です。
天候にも恵まれたくさんの魚や亀も見れました。
日本語ガイドもあり楽しめました。

This was my first time ziplining and I had a blast! Ka'a'awa Valley (Jurassic Valley) is one of my favorite places on Oahu and the ziplining tour is the best way to see it! Soaring over the trees with breathtaking views of the lush green valley was quite a thrill. All 7 of the lines had amazing views in every direction.

The guides were fun and helped to ease the minds of anyone who was nervous. You can tell they really enjoy their job and are passionate about Hawaii.

On the ride to and from the ziplining base camp at the back of the valley we passed by numerous filming locations. We saw Hurley's golf course from Lost, Godzilla's footprint, the Jurassic Park log, and many others. It was so cool getting to see where so many great movies and tv shows were filmed.

Nice budget friendly trip. Great to enjoy the skyline. Getting in and out of boat was in the water.

Skydiving itself was very enjoyable, and it provided a sense of freedom and accomplishment beyond my expectations.

I believe it was a partner company of Veltra, but the driver who picked us up at the Hyatt in the morning was Japanese and spoke English. He was very arrogant and had a commanding tone that didn't quite match the vibe of Hawaii.

When we arrived at the airport, I realized he was the only one at that company who could speak Japanese. It seemed like he was relied upon by many people, and since Japanese people tend to be quite reserved overseas, he seemed to be getting a bit carried away. I have studied abroad in America, so I can speak English, but others were in a situation where they could understand but not speak, so they seemed to listen to him unconditionally. He kept insisting that a tip was necessary for the return ride, which felt somewhat unpleasant.

Other than that, I had a lot of fun and think it was an interesting experience in my life. Thank you.

スカイダイビング自体はとても楽しく思った以上に開放感があり達成感がありました。

ベルトラの提携会社だと思いますが、朝ハイアットに迎えに来てくれた車の運転手さんは日本人で英語が話せる方でした。すごく横柄で命令的な口調がとてもハワイと合っていませんでした。
飛行場について分りました。その会社で日本語が話せる方は彼だけだったみたいです。多分たくさんの方に頼られてそして、日本の方はとても海外ではおとなしいので、いい気になっているような感じでした。自分はアメリカで留学したことがあるので、英語が話せますが他の方は聞けるけど話せないような状態なので、彼の言うことを無条件に聞く感じでした。しきりに帰りの送りの車ではチップが必要だと言うことを、ずっと言っていたのが、何となく嫌な感じです。
それ以外はとても楽しく、人生で面白い経験をしたと思っています。ありがとうございます

I came to Hawaii with my children to create memories, and I participated to see dolphins and honu (sea turtles). We were blessed with great weather and had a wonderful time. We were lucky enough to see a whale as well!

We also went snorkeling, played in the ocean, and enjoyed the slide! One of my kids got seasick and couldn't play, but it all became great memories. The staff were cheerful and kind, and I would love to participate again!

子供連れてハワイに来て思い出を作りたくて
イルカやホヌを見る為に参加しました。
お天気にも恵まれて、とても気持ちよく過ごせました。
たまたまくじらも見れてラッキーでした！！

シュノーケルもして、海で遊んで
滑り台もして！
子供1人船酔いで遊べなかったけど
どれも良い思い出となりました。
スタッフさんも明るくて、親切で
また参加したいです！

The low tide at the sandbar was in the early afternoon, so the tour was scheduled for later in the day. The staff's humorous commentary as we headed to the scenic points really lifted my spirits. The staff were highly skilled and very attentive to safety. The sandbar was breathtaking, we saw four sea turtles, and the barbecue was delicious, making for a very satisfying experience.

サンドバーの干潮時間が昼過ぎだったので、午後からのツアーでした。スタッフのユーモアたっぷりのトークで絶景ポイントに向かい、とても気分が上がりました。スタッフのレベルが高く、安全にもとても気遣ってくれました。サンドバーは絶景だし、ウミガメは4匹も見れて、バーベキューも美味しくて大満足でした

It was absolutely amazing! The exhilaration of cycling while enjoying the magnificent scenery was unbeatable! Our guide led the way and was always attentive, which made us feel safe. We stopped along the way to take lots of fun photos! Our guide spoke a little Japanese, which was great. This became the best memory of our trip to Hawaii. Thank you!

最高に良かったです！壮大な景色を見ながら自転車で駆け抜ける爽快感がたまりません！
ガイドさんを先頭に進んでいくのですが、常に気にかけてくれるので安心でした。途中で止まって楽しい写真もたくさん撮ってくれました！
私達のガイドさんは少し日本語が話せる方でよかったです(^^)
今回のハワイ旅行で一番の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！

The instructor kindly taught me. Once we took the chartered plane up, the flight was just a moment. We flew together at the instructor's timing!

インストラクターの方に優しく教えていただきました。
チャーター機に乗って上まで上がると、飛ぶのは一瞬。インストラクターの方のタイミングで一緒に飛びました！

The hour flew by.
I felt at ease because there was someone to guide us both before and after.
It was a bit harder than I expected, but I had a great time.

1時間あっという間でした。
前と後ろに案内してくれる方がいたので安心でした。
少し思ったよりハードでしたが楽しかったです。

The weather was great, and it was the best! Thanks to the Japanese staff, I was able to receive thorough explanations, and the foreign staff also played along with us and were very kind, so I was extremely satisfied!!!

天気もよく、最高でした！
また日本人スタッフのおかげで、丁寧な説明も聞くことができ、外国人スタッフの方も一緒に遊んでくださったり、大変優しかったので大満足でした！！！

It was my first time parasailing, and I was nervous since it was overseas, but the pickup was smooth! The captain and the guide were cheerful and communicated well, and the scenery was absolutely amazing!

初めてのパラセーリングで、かつ海外で不安だったのですがピックアップもスムーズでした！
船長さん、ガイドさんも明るくコミュニケーションとってくれて、景色もとても最高！

I was healed by the great nature of Hawaii.
It felt wonderful to ride a horse in such magnificent surroundings.
One hour feels a bit short, so I recommend two hours.
The names of the horses I rode were Dr. Pepper and Wilama, and they were very good.

ハワイの大自然に癒されました。
壮大な自然の中を馬に乗って気持ちよかったです。
一時間だと物足りないので二時間がおすすめです。
乗った馬の名前はドクターペッパーとウイラマで、とてもいい子でした。

It was amazing. I had a great time even though I couldn't speak English! However, I think it would have been better if there had been some information about the optional costs. I never expected to have to pay nearly 30,000 yen extra on-site...

最高です。英語が話せなくても楽しくできました！
が、オプションの記載が全くなかったのでそういう記載があれば良かったかなと思います。まさか現地で3万円近く追加で払うことになるとは…。

I participated in a 1-hour mountain bike tour! There were 8 of us in total, including 4 others from our group. Before the departure time, we had practice time, and even as someone who rode an electric bike for the first time, I got used to it quickly. The initial uphill was tiring, but after that, I enjoyed riding in the gentle nature. There was a participant whose chain came off, but they quickly fixed it. Since it was a 1-hour course, we had about 2 hours of waiting time until the return bus, which felt a bit long. The 1-hour course felt a bit short, so if I participate again, I would like to join the 2-hour course! 😊

マウンテンバイクツアー1時間コースに参加しました！私たちグループの他4人、合計8人でした。出発時間の前に練習時間があり、電動バイクに初めて乗る私でもすぐに慣れました。序盤の坂道は疲れましたが、その後は緩やかな大自然の中気持ち良く走りました。途中、チェーンが外れてしまった参加者がいましたが、すぐに対応し直していました。今回は1時間コースだったため、帰りのバスまでに待ち時間が2時間ほどあり時間を持て余してしまいました。1時間コースだと物足りないため、次回参加するなら2時間コースで参加したいです(^^)

I was reading reviews, so I was able to listen to the explanations from the famous old man, which were hard to understand, while laughing. When he kept saying "massage," he was referring to the pressure from the dive that makes your body shake. If you only rely on the explanation given on the day without understanding anything, it might lead to a lot of anxiety. However, the organization was quite poor. I had requested a cameraman instead of the instructor for the photo shoot, but it ended up being the instructor's wrist instead, so we couldn't get photos from the cameraman. There were some good real photos, but I wished we had more overall. They say that diving is something you should do at least once in your life, and I agree. It was apparently -16°C when we took off, which was really cold. I couldn't breathe! They teach you how to breathe. The free fall was amazing, but I felt extremely nauseous after the parachute opened. The instructor, perhaps thinking it was part of the service, spun around in circles and picked up speed while laughing, but for me, it was the worst. Those who are not good with roller coasters should be cautious. I lay down for about an hour. However, it seems to depend on the instructor, as there were people who descended quietly while enjoying the scenery. I thought if I was going to do this experience, it should be in Hawaii... and it was indeed beautiful.

口コミ見ていたんで名物おじさんの日本語わかりにくい説明も笑いながら聞けました。マッサージマッサージ言ってるのはダイブ中の風圧で肉がプルプルする事を言ってます…。もし何もわからず当日の説明だけだとすごく不安な事になるかもしれません。ただ段取りはだいぶ悪いです。カメラ撮影でインストラクターの手首じゃなくカメラマンを希望したのが逆になっててカメラマン撮影はできませんでした。リアルな写真でよかったとこもありますが全体のもほしかった。ダイブ自体は一生に一度やった方がいいといいますがその通りだと思います。飛び立つ時だけ−16℃らしく寒いです。呼吸できません！呼吸法教えてくれます。落ちてる時は最高でしたがパラシュート開いた後 めちゃくちゃ酔いました。サービスのつもりかインストラクターが笑いながら8の字で回ったりスピード出したりしましたが自分には最悪でした。ジェットコースター苦手な人は注意必要です。1時間くらい横になってました。ただインストラクターによるみたいで静かに景色みながら降りてきた人もいました。体験はどうせやるならと思ってたハワイ…やっぱりキレイでした。

All crew are nice and friendly!!
It was a bit cold but lots of fun!!

The atmosphere on the tour bus was not very good... The guy who picked us up was nice, but I couldn't hear any of his explanations at all; it was really hard to hear him. Yet, his attitude was quite big.

As a result, my first skydiving experience was nerve-wracking, but it was really amazing! The staff who jumped with us were so encouraging that I felt completely at ease! This feeling is something only those who have experienced skydiving can understand, so I hope everyone gets to see that view and try skydiving at least once! By the way, I already want to do it again!

行きのツアーバス内の雰囲気はあまり…、
おじさんが送迎してくれたが説明とかの
声が全く届かず、本当に聞こえませんでした。
そのくせ態度は大きい方ですね。
結果、初めてのスカイダイビング
ドキドキでしたが
すごく良かったです！
一緒に飛んでくれるスタッフが
盛り上げて下さるので全然大丈夫でした！
この気持ちはスカイダイビング体験した人にしか分からないので1度でいいからあの景色みて
スカイダイビングやって頂きたいです！
ちなみに、あたしはもう1度やりたいと
思いました！

This luau displayed music, dancing, and chants from cultures all over Polynesia, not just Hawaii. This luau was very engaging and was a great time with friends. One welcome mai tai was included in our package and additional drinks were available for purchase. The food was great, my favorites was the kalua pig and malasada dessert.

The view from the luau was beautiful, we were able to see the sunset from the rooftop at Hilton Hawaiian Village. Parking was validated so even if you are not within walking distance of the hotel it is not a problem to park there.

An activity I was determined to participate in while in Hawaii.

I truly recommend it!! The view of Waikiki from 150 meters is amazing, and the wind and light felt wonderful. Although I was a bit nervous before flying, the staff and fellow passengers on the boat were all great people, which turned my nerves into excitement.

☆ You will touch the water briefly at the end before landing on the boat. It often seems like you only get your feet wet, so if you want to get more wet, it might be good to communicate your wishes in simple English (Japanese was hardly understood).

☆ Photos are $30. You can receive them on an SD card.

☆ I read the reviews and was prepared, but the boat sways more than I expected! You'll be waiting on a constantly swaying boat except when it's your turn to fly, so even if you're usually good with motion sickness, I think it's better to take some medication. That way, you can enjoy it until the end.

☆ You will need to tip when getting off the boat and during transportation.

If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to experience this again!

ハワイで絶対参加しようと決めていたアクティビティ。
高さはもちろん150mで。

本っ当におススメです！！
150mから見るワイキキの景色は素晴らしく、風も光も全てが気持ち良かったです。
飛ぶ前は多少緊張するものの、スタッフやボートの同乗者皆さんがノリのいい良い人達で緊張がいい興奮に変わりました。

☆最後少しだけ着水します。その後ボートに着地。着水は見た感じ結構足先だけのことも多いので、もし結構水に入りたいなら簡単な英語ででも(日本語はほとんど通じませんでした)希望を伝えると良いかも。

☆写真は30$。SDカードで貰えます。

☆レヴュー読んで覚悟してましたが、思った以上にボート揺れます！自分が飛ぶ時以外はずっと揺れるボートの上で待機なので、酔いに強い人でも酔い止め薬は飲んだ方が良いと思います。その方が最後まで楽しめます。

☆ボートから降りるときと送迎時はチップ必要です。


もしもう一度ハワイに行く機会があれば、また体験したいくらい楽しかったです！！

I was anxious, but I'm glad I went for the 150m. The parasailing was of course fun, but I also enjoyed being on the boat that was going pretty fast while others were flying.

不安だったけど150mにしてよかったです。
パラセイリングはもちろん楽しかったけど、他の人が飛んでいる時、結構スピードを出して走行するボートに乗っているのも楽しかったです。

We participated with a total of 14 family members after the family ceremony. Since we had a 3-year-old child with us, we only joined the activities involving rides, but the Jurassic Park movie location and the jungle tour in the Kualoa mountains were quite bumpy, and the child enjoyed it like a roller coaster. The lunch time was a bit short, about 40 minutes, so we hurriedly ate, and afterwards, we had a farm tour with tastings. Since my aunt and parents are in their 60s, we moved around by rides, which seemed manageable for them physically. Everyone had a great time, and we took a lot of photos, so we were very satisfied!

家族挙式後の両家総勢14人で参加。3歳の子供もいたので、乗り物のアクティビティだけの参加でしたが、ジュラシックパーク映画ロケ地や、クアロアの山のジャングルツアーは結構車が揺れて子供はジェットコースターみたいで楽しんでました。ランチの時間が少し短く40分くらいだったのでバタバタご飯食べて、その後は農園ツアーで試食付き。叔母や両親も60代なので、全て乗り物に乗って移動だったので体力的にも大丈夫なようでした。みんなで楽しめたし写真もたくさん撮ってもらって満足です！

I went in mid-February. I tried to make a reservation with Captain Cruise since they can get you close, but it was fully booked, so I made a reservation here instead. It didn't matter at all; we arrived right at the sandbar and were able to play on it!

It was a bit cold since it was February, but it was possible to go into the sea. When the sun was shining, it felt warm, but when it was hidden by clouds, it felt a bit chilly. After that, we had lunch on the boat and went to a coral reef spot to snorkel. It was also cold there, and we joked that if we didn't dive in, there was no point in coming. However, we gave up after about 10 minutes. Everyone looked cold. After that, we were able to get warm drinks on the boat, which was nice.

2月中旬に行きました。キャプテンクルーズだと近くまで行けるとのことで予約しようとしたら予約埋まって、こちらで予約しました。全然そんなの関係なくて、普通にサンドバーの岸に着いて、サンドバーの上で遊べました！

2月なのでやや寒かったけど海に入ることは可能でした。太陽に照らされていると暖かいですが、雲に隠れるとちょっと肌寒いって感じ。そのあと船上でランチして、サンゴ礁スポットに行きシュノーケルしました。これまた同じく寒くて、潜らないと来た意味ないねって話ながら入りましたけど10ぷんくらいでギブアップ。みんな寒そうでした。そのあとは船上で暖かい飲み物もらえてよかった。

I participated alone this time. It was my first time joining, but the crew was very kind, attentive, and warm, which made me feel safe participating alone! The weather didn't clear up much, but the sandbar was still very beautiful. Since it was a morning plan, the brunch was delicious too! The crew's stories were also very interesting. I had some anxiety about swimming, so I decided to skip snorkeling this time, but I definitely want to participate next time! I had a great time spending my free time just enjoying the sea! I fell even more in love with the ocean! I was also able to see a turtle, which made me very satisfied! I was truly healed by the magnificent nature and the crew. I definitely want to join again when I go to Hawaii. Thank you very much!

今回、一人で参加しました。
初めて参加いたしましたが、クルーの皆様がとても親切丁寧で温かく、一人でも安心して参加できました！お天気がかなかなか晴れになりませんでしたが、それでもサンドバーはとても綺麗でした。朝発のプランでしたので、ブランチも美味しかったです♪
クルーの方のお話もとても面白かったです。
シュノーケリングは、泳ぎに不安があり今回は断念しましたが、次回は絶対参加したいと思います!
自由時間もずっと海で自由に過ごせ、本当に楽しかったです‼︎海がもっと大好きになりました!
かめさんにも会えて、大満足です‼︎
雄大な自然と、クルーの皆様にとても癒されました。
またHawaiiに行く際には是非また参加したいと思います。ありがとうございました！

I participated from 130m! First, I was picked up, checked in, and then boarded the boat. The reception counter, the boat driver, and the guide were all local people, so there were some parts of the instructions and explanations that were difficult in English, but I could kind of understand through gestures.

There was no time to be scared since it was my turn to jump right away! (laughs) Once I got up, the view was incredibly beautiful and moving. I got a bit nauseous while waiting for others to jump, so I think it would be good for those who are worried to bring motion sickness medication!

I'm glad I participated! It was so much fun.

130mでの参加でした！
まず、送迎してもらい受付を済ませ乗船という流れです。
受付カウンターと船の運転手、ガイドさんはすべて現地の方なので注意事項や説明は英語で難しい部分もありましたが、ジェスチャーなどでなんとなく分かる感じです。

暇なく回ってくる順番で飛ぶので、怖いと言ってる暇が無かったです！笑
実際に上に上がるとすごく景色が綺麗で感動でした。
他の人が飛んでいる待ち時間で少し酔ってしまったので、心配な方は酔い止めを持参したら良いと思います！

参加して良かったです！
すごく楽しかった。

Wow, this team is amazing! All of the staff members are so nice and friendly and they made everyone on the boat feel so comfortable.  We did the 1000 ft line and I am so glad that we did! The views were amazing and it felt like just the right amount of time in the air. The check in was very easy to find and they even offer to take photos for you if you want to purchase them afterwards. Definitely something fun to do and they are located in such a convenient area for anyone in Waikiki.
