All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

I visited the dream sandbar that is often featured on TV. The weather was absolutely perfect, to the point where the locals said it felt like summer, not winter in Hawaii. My daughters, aged 6 and 12, had a great time. My eldest was especially excited to participate in snorkeling and encountered over ten sea turtles. The shallow area in the middle of the ocean was truly magical and wonderful. The guide warned us about seasickness, but the sea was calm, and we were totally fine. I would love to go again.

TVでもよく紹介される憧れのサンドバーへ行きました。現地の方も冬のハワイとは思えない夏のような天気ですと言われるくらい最高の天気でした。
6歳と12歳の娘も一緒でしたがすごく楽しんでいました。特に長女はシュノーケリングにも参加し10匹以上の海亀も遭遇したと興奮していました。海の真ん中にこのそうな浅瀬があるのが本当に幻想的で素晴らしかったです。
ガイドさんが船酔い注意ですと言ったおられましたが海も穏やかで全然大丈夫でした。また行きたいと思います。

I participated with my sixth grader, high school senior, and my 78-year-old mother, who joined us as an observer. The early morning pickup was a bit sleepy, but the excitement blew away that drowsiness. I thought it would be a matter of luck to meet dolphins, but we were able to see them early on, and two turtles even approached us! We took a lot of photos, and the data arrived via email for $60.

It was cold while the boat was moving due to the wind, but it was more bearable in the sun. I think having a hoodie and a large beach towel would be helpful. The crew members were all fun, and we had a great time. Lunch was a cheeseburger, which was very delicious. Motion sickness medication is a must. Although it was a day with little rocking, about four people had mini buckets.

We also went snorkeling, and the kids said the slide at that time was a lot of fun. All three of us are not great swimmers, but we managed to stay together with everyone. I think such an experience is quite rare. I'm glad I participated.

小6と高3と78歳の母と参加しました
母は見学で参加。
朝早くのピックアップは少し眠いですがその眠さを吹き飛ばしてくれる程の感動でした。
イルカと逢えるのも運もあるだろうな思っていましたが私たちは早い段階で会うことができしかも亀も2匹亀の方から近づいて来てくれました。
写真もとても沢山撮っていただきデータで(60ドル)でメールに届きました。
船が動いてる間は風があるので寒いですが日向に出ればマシでしたがパーカーと大きめのバスタオルがあればいいと思います。
クルーの皆さんも楽しい方ばかりで楽しく過ごすことができました。昼食はチーズバーガーでしたがとても美味しかったです。船酔いの薬は必須です。揺れが少ない日でしたが4人ほどミニバケツを持っていました。
シュノーケルもしましたがその時の滑り台がとても楽しかったと子供達は言っていました。
私達三人共泳ぎは苦手な方でしたがなんとか皆さんと離れることなく行動できました。
こんな体験は中々無いと思います。
参加して良かったです。

I had an absolutely wonderful time! A pod of dolphins came close to us. The yacht staff were very lively, took photos for us, and engaged with us Japanese guests, making it a fun experience! Thank you for the lovely time!

最高に楽しい時間でした！イルカの群れも寄ってきてくれました。ヨットのお姉さん達もとっても元気で写真を撮ってくれたり、私達日本人にも声をかけてくれて楽しませてくれました！ステキな時間をありがとうございました！

I took a leisurely walk along the beach and through the fields for about an hour and a half. The weather was nice, and the staff took a lot of photos, making it a wonderful memory.

1時間半ほどゆっくり海岸や野原を歩きました。天気も良くてスタッフの方も写真をたくさん撮ってくれてとても良い思い出になりました。

Our group consisted of a couple (with zipline experience), an elderly couple, a family of four, a solo traveler, two friends of mine, and the instructor, starting at 10 AM. (Everyone except us was foreign; from their perspective, we were the only Asians.) We began with a short zipline to warm up and then gradually tried longer lines and even went backward.

The elderly couple (around 70 years old?) and the children tried without hesitation. The most challenging part was climbing up to the zipline location (like a climbing pole), which was really tough, but the instructor helped us reach the top. There were places along the way to enjoy macadamia nuts, cherry tomatoes, and mini bananas, as well as hydration stations.

I usually use an iPad mini, so it was too large for me to carry, but the foreigners were taking pictures of the scenery and themselves with their smartphones. I would like to participate again and have a photo taken with my arms and legs spread out. Finally, we were able to purchase photos for $45 plus tax.

私たちのグループはご夫婦（ジップライン経験あり）、老夫婦、ファミリー4人、お1人様、私たち友達2人とインストラクターのグループで10時からでした。（私たち以外は全員外人さん→向こうからみればアジア人が私たちだけ）最初に短いジップラインで肩慣らし？してどんどん長かったり後ろ向きにトライしたりとしていきました。
老夫婦（70歳位？）と子供の躊躇なくトライしていっていました。
一番大変だったのはジップラインの場所までロープをあがっていくのがあり（登り棒風に）それが本当に大変でしたが、インストラクターが助けてくれて登り切りました。途中にマカダミアナッツ、ミニトマト、ミニバナナが食べれるところと水分補給は各所にありました。
私は通常はiPadminiと使用しているので大きすぎて持ち歩けなかったですが
外人さんたちはスマホで景色やら自分たちを撮ってました。
また参加して今度は手と足を広げて写真撮ってもらいたいです。
最後に45＄プラス税金で写真も購入できました。

The parasailing time is about 10 minutes. Gradually, you rise higher. The view from above was amazing. When descending, there is no feeling like a roller coaster; you come down slowly, so it's not scary at all.

ゆっくりと降りていくので怖くないです。

I have to admit, even though I knew I would be swimming safely in a cage, I was still a little nervous. But the crew did a good job of putting my mind at ease. These guys really know their stuff! They've been swimming with sharks and surfing in Hawaii their whole lives. They are like walking encyclopedias!

The tour was fun from start to finish. We got to see whales on the way to and from the dive site (and we could hear them when we were in the water!), we saw the Lost beach where the TV show was filmed, and the view of the North Shore coastline was breathtaking.

Last but not least, the sharks. There were at least five in sight when I got in the cage. It was a dream come true getting to be so close to them and watch them swim around us. And the best part is that this tour only takes out a maximum of 6 people so we got to stay in the cage the whole time!

Our tour consisted of five people: a couple from Canada, a woman from England, and my husband and I from Japan. This time, we visited a different waterfall due to construction at Manoa Falls, but we enjoyed walking through the forest and experiencing nature. It was great that our guide, Susumu, who is a bit stern-looking, provided fun explanations about the forest's nature. He also interpreted for us during conversations with people from different countries, which made communication with everyone enjoyable. We also had a lovely meal in the park. Thank you, Susumu!

カナダからのご夫婦と、イングランドから来られた女性に私たち夫婦（日本）の5人でのツアーでした。
今回はマノアの滝が工事のため違う滝になりましたが、森の自然を味わえて気持ちよく歩けました。
ちょっと強面のガイドのMichaelじゃなくてススム（Susumu）さんが森の自然について楽しく解説してくれてよかったです。各国の人との会話もこちらに通訳してくれるので皆さんとのコミニュケーションも取れてよかったです。
公園での食事も楽しくいただきました。
ススムさんありがとうございました。

For the first time, I went paragliding at 150 meters! ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و
The staff's upbeat energy got me super excited, and off we went! The sensation of rising higher and higher was pure fun. Once we reached the top, it felt amazing to just float without being buffeted by the wind. The view of Waikiki was breathtaking! ( *¯ ³¯*)
If I had to mention one thing, the photos turned out dark due to backlighting, so next time I’ll definitely try in the afternoon!
*They advise not to bring valuables, but if you want to get images on an SD card, it costs $30, so you'll need to tip plus the $30.* (o^▽^o)

150mで初のﾊﾟﾗｾｲﾘﾝｸﾞ‎‎‎٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و
StaffのノリノリなﾃﾝｼｮﾝにわくわくがMaxになりいざ出発！！ぐんぐん上がる感覚は楽しいそのもの。上がりきると風にあおられることもなく、ただふわふわと浮いてる感じで最高でした！！ﾜｲｷｷを一望出来るさまは圧巻‎( *¯ ³¯*)
しいていえば、逆光で出来上がりの写真が暗かったので、次回は是非午後に挑戦します！！
※貴重品は持たないようにとありますが、SDｶｰﾄﾞで画像をもらう場合は＄30かかりますので、ﾁｯﾌﾟ+＄30が必要になります‎(o^▽^o)

The crew was awesome. The drinks were flowing and the views were spectacular! If you get sea sick I would recommend some medication!

The shuttle bus took about 45 minutes to the boat dock, and the boat ride was around 10 minutes. There were some waves, but I didn't feel seasick at all. More than that, the scenery around was amazing!

It was early February, but the weather was nice, and while the sun was out, it felt like midsummer. It was great for taking photos! When the sun went behind the clouds, it felt a bit chilly. The sea was somewhat cold (laughs), and I shivered a bit after snorkeling, but as long as I was in the sun, it was totally fine! They also provided warm drinks.

I was able to enjoy everything: the sandbar, snorkeling, SUP, and lunch. I saw five turtles, which felt like five times the happiness! The Japanese guide joked that the validity period is one year, so come back again. It was really fun (^ ^).

I truly think it was an activity worth experiencing (^ ^).

送迎バスで船乗り場まで約45分程移動し、船は10分程度。波は多少ありましたが船酔いは全く気になりませんでした。それより周りの景色が最高！
2月頭でしたが天気が良く、太陽が出る間は真夏のようでした。写真映えもします(^ ^)太陽が隠れると肌寒い感じはしました。海はやや冷たいです（笑）シュノーケルの後は震えましたが太陽に当たれば全然平気！温かいドリンクも出してもらえました。
サンドバー、シュノーケル、SUP、ランチ全て楽しむことができました。亀は5匹見れたので5回分の幸せ、有効期限は1年なのでまた来てねとジョークを交えた日本人ガイドの方、面白かったです(^ ^)
本当に体験して良かったと思えるアクティビティーです(^ ^)

This was by far the best tour we have ever been on! Anthony was so knowledgeable and entertaining we learned so much about the culture and the flora and fauna of the big island.

The staff are all locals, but they first showed us a Japanese video, so it was okay even if you’re not good at English! The horses are very smart and respond well to simple signals. We were able to enjoy a leisurely horseback ride on a beautiful, pleasant beach! Since it’s a bit of a long time, it might be good to bring a drink. They do sell some drinks locally, so if you ask the staff, you can buy them, but they might not have change, so you may need some small bills.

スタッフは現地の方ばかりなのですが
初めに日本語ビデオを見せて頂くので英語が苦手でも大丈夫でした！
お馬さんはとてもお利口さんで 簡単な合図でちゃんと言う事を聞いてくれ
とても気持ちよくキレイなビーチをのんびり乗馬できました！
少し長い時間なので飲み物を持って行くと良いかもしれません。
現地のにも少しですが売っているのでスタッフに声をかければ売って貰えますが
お釣りが無さそうなので細かいお金が必要かもです。

The vibe of the young women from the American tourist group was fantastic, and everyone on the yacht was having a great time. The crew also joined in with music and a DJ, making it entertaining. The sunset viewed from the boat was amazing. I highly recommend it.

若い女性のアメリカンツーリストグループのノリが最高でヨット全員が盛り上がっていて楽しめた。
クルーも音楽やＤＪで一緒にエンジョイして盛り上げてくれ面白かった。
船上からみる夕日が最高でした。おすすめします。

First, the buffet.
While listening to the ukulele performance and singing, I enjoyed about 17 types of delicious meats, salads, and desserts.
I was very satisfied to be able to eat three types of meat: chicken, pork, and beef.
After that, we went to the second-floor seating for the rock and hula show.
Being close to the stage, I was very satisfied to experience various performances all at once, including hula dancing, Elvis, Michael Jackson, and fire dancing.
Since the show venue is cool in the evening, I think it's a good idea to have a long-sleeved cover-up.

まずは、ビュッフェ。
ウクレレの演奏と歌を聞きながら、美味しいお肉やサラダ、デザートを17種類ほど頂きました。
鳥、豚、牛と3種類のお肉を食べれてすごく満足です。
その後、2階席でロックアフラショー。
舞台からも近くフラダンス、プレスリー、マイケルジャクソン、ファイアダンスと様々なショーを一度に体験でき非常に満足でした。
夕方くらいからの外食でショーの室内も涼しいので長袖の羽織るものがあると良いと思います。

The bus driver and the boat staff were all kind and it was really great. I enjoyed both the sandbar and snorkeling. I was really happy to see two turtles. We split into two groups for snorkeling, and while waiting for one group, we not only had lunch but also enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding. During our exploration of Kailua, I had pancakes and enjoyed shopping. The bus was comfortable too, so it was very good!

バスの運転手さん、船のスタッフさん、みんな親切でとてもよかったです。
サンドバーもシュノーケリングも楽しめました。亀を2匹見れたので、ほんとうによかったです。二つのグループに別れてシュノーケリングを行うのですが、片方のグループを待ってる間昼ご飯を食べるだけではなく、サップも楽しむことができました。
カイルア散策は、ホットケーキ食べ、ショッピングを楽しみました。
バスの中も快適だったので、とても良かったです！

This event provided insight into a variety of cultural dancing all in one sitting. It was incredible to hear the stories and rich history of the people today and in the past. The MC engaged the audience. The buffet was a great spread for people with food preferences and allergies. It provided great value for the money spent. Only wish was having the opportunity to experience this outdoors. It would have been much more of an experience.

I participated with my 7-year-old child. At the movie filming locations, the Japanese-speaking driver provided fun explanations while we toured the sites. The scenery was wonderful. Since I had only been around Waikiki before, I realized once again that this is also Hawaii.

It started to rain, and we wore raincoats. The jungle exploration was entirely in English. Unfortunately, my English isn't great, so I couldn't understand the explanations, but my child said this was the most fun part. It seemed like they enjoyed the bumpy ride.

The other activity also had explanations in Japanese after the English ones, which made me feel at ease participating. My child seemed to tire out and was a bit less energetic. Overall, everywhere you looked, there were magnificent and wild views, and it was a lot of fun.

7歳の子どもと参加しました。
映画ロケ地では日本語のドライバーさんが楽しく説明しながらロケ地めぐり。そしてその風景は素晴らしかったです。これまでワイキキ周辺しか行ったことがなかったので、これもハワイなんだなと改めて認識しました。
途中雨が降ってきてカッパ？を着ながら。
ジャングル探検はオール英語でした。残念ながら英語がダメなので説明がわかりませんでしたが、子どもはここが一番楽しかったと言ってました。車が揺れるのが良かったようです。
もう一つのアクティビティも英語の後に日本語で説明があり、安心して参加しました。子どもは疲れたのかトーンダウンしていましたが。
全体的にどこを切り取っても雄大な景色でワイルドで、楽しかったです。

There are plenty of events on the ship, and the staff really knows how to entertain! You can tell they are putting in their all to make it enjoyable. I definitely want to go on this tour again!

船の中ではイベントが盛り沢山で、スタッフの方々がとにかく楽しませてくれる！
全力で楽しませてくれてるのがわかります。
また絶対に行きたいツアーです！

I was nervous during my first parasailing experience, but it was fun! There were no other Japanese people among the guests I rode with, but everyone was nice and talked to me a lot. I chose the 150-meter option, and the parasailing itself was refreshing and great, but it took quite a long time to get to the spot on the boat, and the boat was rocking a lot, which was scarier.

初めてのパラセイリングで緊張しましたが、楽しかったです！一緒に乗ったお客さんの中に日本人は誰もいなかったですが、いい人ばかりでみんなたくさん話かけてくれました。150メートルを選んで、パラセイリング自体は爽快でよかったのですが、そのスポットに行くまでけっこう長い時間ボートに乗って、そのボートがめちゃくちゃ揺れてそっちの方が怖かったです。

I participated with my 6-year-old and 3-year-old children.
We joined the 2nd-floor buffet dinner plan. Check-in was on the 4th floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center, and we were guided to the buffet seats in order of arrival. To avoid crowding, we were seated at tables in sequence. While waiting for the buffet, we were entertained with hula shows and ukulele performances, which was a nice touch.
The buffet included not only salads and fruits but also hearty dishes like whole roasted pig and roast beef. In the latter part of the meal, there were small cakes, sorbet, coffee, and tea, so we could enjoy a complete dining experience. The Mai Tai cocktail that came with the buffet could be substituted with fruit juice for children or those who prefer non-alcoholic options, and it was delicious.

After finishing the meal, we moved to the show in order. Although we were seated near the back, the venue was large and elevated, making it easy to see. The show featured a variety of performances, from basic hula dancing to Elvis, Michael Jackson, and fire dancing, providing an enjoyable experience. The children had fun, even if they didn’t fully understand everything.
During the show, it was dark and the sound was loud, which caused some little babies to cry, but it was entertainment that everyone, from adults to children, could enjoy. At the end of the show, they were happy to let us take photos with our smartphones and cameras, allowing us to enjoy the experience until the very end.

6歳と3歳子供を連れて参加しました。
2階ブッフェディナープラン
ロイヤルハワイアンセンターの４階にて受付、受付順にブッフェ席へ。ブッフェは混みあわないようテーブル順に案内されます。ブッフェ待ちの間はフラショーやウクレレで歌や踊りでおもてなしされ配慮されていました。
ブッフェにはサラダやフルーツのほかにも豚の丸焼きやローストビーフなど、ボリュームのある食事もあります。後半には小さなケーキとソルベ、コーヒー、紅茶もあるのでひととおりの食事をいただくことができます。
ブッフェのセットについてくるマイタイカクテルも子供やノンアルコールの方はフルーツジュースにしてもらえるので、こちらもおいしかった。

食事が終わった方から順にショーへ移動。案内されたのはほぼ最後列でしたが、会場は大きくても高さがあるので見やすかったです。ベーシックなフラダンスから、プレスリー、マイケルジャクソン、ファイアーダンス等、バラエティーに富んで楽しめる構成でした。子供たちもわからないなりに楽しんでいました。
ショーの間は暗いし、音も大きいので小さな赤ちゃんは泣いていましたが笑、大人から子供まで楽しめるエンターテインメントでした。ショー終わりで自分のスマホやカメラで写真も快く撮影してくれるので最後まで楽しめます。

I participated in the morning.
The weather was a bit bad at first, but it gradually cleared up.
The sandbar wasn't out, and the water came up to my waist, but I was able to see sea turtles up close while snorkeling.
I had fun playing with stand-up paddleboarding and canoeing, and the staff really got everyone excited.
It's nice that we could return to the hotel in the early afternoon.

午前に参加
少し天気が悪かったですが、だんだん晴れてきました
サンドバーは出ておらず腰まで水がきましたが、
シュノーケリングでは間近にホヌを見ることができました
サップやカヌーで遊んだり、スタッフさんが色々盛り上げてくれて楽しかったです
昼過ぎにはホテルに帰れるのがいいですね

I made a reservation after arriving due to concerns about the weather. They responded quickly to my reservation email, and the shuttle service to the hotel was great. The driver was fluent in Japanese and talked to me until I boarded the plane, which was reassuring. They followed up until the very end.

It was my first time skydiving, and the instructor was very kind. They carefully checked the equipment and taught me how to jump in detail. I'm glad I had such a fun experience.

*Points to note:*
- Since it was late January, it was very cold, so I recommend wearing long sleeves and long pants if you're jumping during this time.
*Recommendations:*
- Photos and videos are available as an additional option, but if you're unsure, I definitely think it's worth purchasing. As mentioned in other reviews, it may seem expensive, but it became a wonderful memory. I can laugh every time I look back at them!
- The support from the shuttle driver was excellent! It made me feel safe!

天気の心配もあり、到着後予約をしました。
予約のメールも素早く対応して下さり、ホテルまでの送迎、そして送迎の方が日本語堪能で飛行機に搭乗するまで話し掛けてくれて、心強かったです。最後までフォローしてくれました。

初めてのスカイダイビングでしたが、一緒に飛ぶ担当の方もとても優しく、器具の装着を念入りにチェックし、飛び方も丁寧に教えてくれました。
とても楽しい経験ができて良かったです。

※注意点※
・1月下旬だったので、とても寒くこの時期に飛ぶ方は長袖長ズボンがおすすめです。
※おすすめ点※
・写真、動画は別途オプションになりますが、迷いがあれば是非購入した方が良いと思います。他の方の口コミにもありましたが、高い気がしますが、とても良い思い出になりました。いつ見返しても爆笑出来ます！！
・送迎の方のフォローが素晴らしい！！安心出来ます！

I participated with two female friends. I had never been to Kualoa Ranch before, and initially thought about trying the popular zipline, but since there were only seven ziplines, I thought it might be boring if it ended too quickly, so I put that on hold. Next, I considered the popular buggy ride, but since there were no single seats available, and there would be a problem deciding who would drive if we took a five-person buggy, I also put that on hold. Ultimately, we chose the e-bike tour (2 hours, no kayaking, with a shuttle option). It turned out to be amazing! Here are the details.

The tour started at 12:30, and we gathered in front of the designated hotel at 10:20. Although we arrived early, the bus came just in time, which made me a little anxious. There were quite a few people going to Kualoa, so we were transported by a large bus (about a 50-minute ride), and I slept the whole way there and back. After arriving, we checked in at the ticket office, which was all in English. As others have mentioned in their reviews, there is over an hour of waiting time from check-in to the start of the tour, which can be a bit boring, but there were horses around, and the views were stunning, so we spent the time taking photos. There are rental lockers available, but they were full, so I recommend going with light luggage, just water, a card for emergencies, and a towel.

The e-bike is an electric bicycle, so once you start pedaling, it moves quite fast. It was easy to go up hills without needing to stand up. We rode on unpaved roads, gravel paths, and grass, which added a bit of thrill. We stopped at various points to take photos and rest, so the time flew by.

We were in a group of four with a Japanese couple. The guide spoke only English, but since we were all a young group, they played music loudly through the speakers, gave us snacks, and directed us on taking photos, making it a really fun experience. We passed by the buggy tour we had initially considered, but at the photo spots, the buggies were large and couldn't stop on the road with big groups, so they quickly drove off. Considering we could navigate through paths that felt like animal trails, I was glad we chose the e-bike.

The weather was great, and it felt wonderful to ride through the stunning scenery without getting our clothes dirty. Although the price is high, it's definitely an activity I would want to do again.

友人と女子2人で参加しました。
クアロア牧場にいったことがなく、当初は人気のジップラインにしようかと思っていましたがジップラインの数が7本のみとあったので、あっという間に終わったらつまらないと思い保留。
次にこれまた人気のバギーにしようかと思いましたが、1人乗りの空きが無いとあったので、5人乗りに2人で乗るとどっちが運転するか問題があるのでこれも保留。
最終的にｅ-bikeのツアー（2時間、カヤック無し、送迎オプションつき）にしました。結果、最高でした！以下詳細書いていきます。
12：30スタートのツアーで、朝は指定のホテル前にて10：20集合。時間前に行ったもののバスが来たのがぎりぎりだったのでちょっとだけ不安でした。クアロアに行く人がかなりいるので大型バスでの送迎です（およそ50分くらい）、行きも帰りもひたすら寝てました。到着してからチケットオフィスでの受付があります。ここでもすべて英語。他の方も口コミに書いてますが、受付からツアースタートまで待ち時間が1時間以上ありますのでちょっと退屈ですが、そこらへんに馬がいたり、とにかく絶景なので写真をとって過ごしていました。レンタルロッカーはありますが、埋まってるので、水と念のためのカード、タオル位の身軽な荷物でいくことをお勧めします。
ｅ-bikeはいわゆる電動自転車なので踏み出すとかなりぐんぐん進みます。坂も立ちこぎもしなくても楽々すすめました。舗装されていない道、砂利道、草の上を進むので、結構スリルがあります。要所要所では、自転車を止めて撮影したり休憩もしつつだったのであっという間でした。
私たちは、日本人のカップルと4人でのグループでした。ガイドさんは英語のみですが、私たちが皆若いグループだったので、スピーカーで音楽をがんがんかけたり、お菓子くれたり、写真の撮影も色々指示してきたりと、とにかくノリノリで楽しかったです。
当初迷っていたバギーツアーと途中道ですれ違いましたが、写真スポットでもバギー自体が大きく大人数のグループで道に止めることができないからか、すぐ走って去っていたし、獣道みたいなところを進めるところも含め、やっぱりｅbikeにしてよかったなと。
天気も良く、服が汚れず、素晴らしい絶景の中を風をきって進むのはとにかく気持ちがよかったです。
値段が高いですが、またやりたいアクティビティです。

I think it's a good idea to check the tide levels in the morning and afternoon of the available days and book at the best timing. The weather is hard to predict, but on the day I participated, it was cloudy at first, but gradually cleared up, and it felt really nice. The water was shallow enough to reach my ankles. I was also able to see sea turtles. It was a lot of fun!

潮位は、参加可能な日の午前、午後、で調べてベストのタイミングで申し込まれると良いと思います。
天気はなんとも予想できませんが、私が参加した日は雲っていましたがだんだんと晴れ間が出てきまして、とても気持ちが良かったです。
一番浅いところでくるぶしくらいまで下がりました。
海ガメも見ることができました。
とても楽しかったです！

"I want to swim if I go to Hawaii!" After receiving this request, I was looking for a tour that my mother (66 years old) could join. I was about to give up due to the age restriction (only up to 65 years old) when I found this tour.

This tour alleviated all my concerns (transportation, managing valuables, where to swim to avoid fatigue, snorkeling instructions, etc.). The transportation to the hotel eased my worries about meeting up on the way there, and it was appreciated on the way back since we were tired.

Swimming was made easier with life jackets, allowing us to float even in deep water. By swimming with the current, we could conserve our energy. Even if you don't know how to use the equipment, our guide Dan explained everything in simple Japanese.

Depending on the weather and climate, it might be better to rent a wetsuit. I swam on January 31, 2020. The weather was cloudy, and the seawater was cold (not freezing, but it felt "cold... If the weather was nice, it would feel good"). I wore a rash guard over my swimsuit and shorts. Towards the end of the swim, I felt cold. I bought the rash guard locally for about $50. My mother wore a full rash guard as well, but she still said, "It feels a bit chilly towards the end." It was a good decision to bring a bath towel borrowed from the hotel.

Things I was glad I brought from Japan included candy and powdered Pocari Sweat, which I mixed with water. I wished I had brought hot water on the day.

Seeing the photos and comments in the reviews here helped me know what to prepare in advance, so I wrote this as a way to give back! I hope it helps someone!

「ハワイに行くなら泳ぎたい！」のリクエストを受け、母（66歳）でも参加できるツアーを探していました。年齢制限（65歳まで参加可）に引っかかり、諦めかけていたところに、このツアーを見つけました。
このツアーは、持っていた不安（送迎、貴重品管理、どこから泳ぐと疲れにくい、シュノーケリングのレクチャー等）をすべて解消してくれました。
ホテルまでの送迎は、行きは合流ができるか不安だったのを払拭し、帰りは疲れてるのでありがたかったです。
泳ぐのも、ライフジャケットがあるので、足のつかないところでも浮かんでいられるので、助かりました。
海の流れに逆らわないで泳ぐので体力が続きます。
使い方が分からなくても、ガイドのDanさんが日本語で簡単に説明してくれました。

天候や気候によっては、ウェットスーツを借りた方がいいかも知れないです。
私が泳いだのは、2020年1月31日。
天候は曇りでした。
海水は、冷たかったです。（水風呂まではいかないけど、「冷たい…。…お天気なら、気持ちよさそう」な体感でした。）
服装は、水着の上からラッシュガードを着て、下は短パンを履いていました。
泳いでいる最後の方は、寒く感じました。
ラッシュガードは、現地で$50くらいで買いました。
母は上下ラッシュガード着てました。
それでも、「最後の方は肌寒いなぁ」って言ってました。
ホテルで借りたバスタオルを持って行って正解でした。

日本から持って行って良かったものは、飴、ポカリスエットの粉。水に溶かして持って行きました。
当日持って行ったら良かったと思ったものは、白湯でした。

ここの口コミの写真や文章を見て、事前に準備するものが知れたので、恩返しで書きました！
誰かの役に立つといいなぁ〜

Kayaking doesn't take long to get used to, and there's no worry about falling! I didn't understand more than half of what was said in English during the guidance, but it was fun.

The mountain biking also allows for practice until you get used to it, which is reassuring. Since it has assistance, I didn't get tired at all. I was very satisfied to feel the great outdoors up close.

There's also a bus service to the ranch, so that's comforting.

カヤックは慣れるまで時間は
かかりません、落ちる心配も無いです！
案内は英語で何を言ってるかは
半分以上わかりませんでしたが
楽しかったです。

マウンテンバイクも慣れるまで
練習をさせてくれるので安心です。
アシスト付きなので全く疲れません。
大自然を肌で感じることができ大満足です。

牧場までもバスで送迎があるので安心です。

Our guide Lani was very fun and knowledgeable. She has worked there food 28yrs. We were able to see a lot of areas where films as TV shows were shot. We highly recommend it.

My husband and I really enjoyed our trip. we were able to move around at our leisure and spend and much or as little time on each exhibit. Everyone in your family should experience Pearl Harbor. it truly does give you a new perspective and appreciation for those that serve our country protecting us!!

It was a very pleasant sunset cruise. Enjoying drinks while taking in the beautiful scenery and music made for a wonderful memory on my last day in Waikiki. I definitely want to use this service again when I visit Waikiki. Highly recommended!

サンセットとても気持ちのいいクルーズでした。
お酒を飲みながら　素敵な景色に音楽　ワイキキ最終日に予約してとてもよい思い出になりました。また、ワイキキを訪れた時にはぜひ利用したいです。
とてもおすすめです。
