All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

We saw wales. Nough said..........................

I participated in a Japanese language guided tour starting at 10 AM, and not only was I able to enjoy the beautiful underwater scenery, but I also learned about the types of fish, the history of the reefs, and how colors appear underwater. It was a lot of fun!

10時からの日本語解説ツアーに参加したため、美しい海底の景色を眺めるだけでなく、魚の種類や漁礁の歴史や海底での色の見え方等の話が聞けて、とても楽しめました。

Awesome experience! I will definitely book through them again the next time I’m there!

I had a great time. Honestly, one of the highlights of my trip. I met some awesome people on the cruise. The only suggestion I would make is to have it be like a real bar in which people can drink what they want. There wasn’t a good variety of drinks for $60 per person but it was still an awesome experience. However the staff had great customer service skills and I’m all about that. Austin the bartender was dope! The most I’ve ever tipped a bartender in my life.

I was able to see dolphins!!! They were so close, I was surprised!! The staff was also really enthusiastic, and it became the best memory of our honeymoon. Thank you!

イルカ見れました〜！！！すごい近くてびっくりです！！スタッフの方もノリノリでハネムーンの最高の思い出になりました。ありがとうござます！

Clean boat, good crew and great drinks!!! Win win for sure! Alex and Clarry were amazing! I would definitely do it again!

I was worried about whether I would be able to see any animals since they are wild, but I was surprised to encounter so many dolphins. I was hoping to be lucky and see whales as well, given the season, but unfortunately, I didn't see any.
At this time of year, it can be cold while moving on the boat, so it's better to have something to wear over your clothes.
Next time, I want to challenge myself to see whales.

自然の生き物なので観れるかどうか不安でしたがびっくりするほどたくさんのイルカと出会えました。季節柄クジラも見られるとラッキーだと期待してましたが残念ながら観られませんでした。
いまの時期は船上での移動中は寒いので羽織ものがあった方が良いです。
次はクジラにチャレンジしたいと思ってます。

I read the reviews on Veltra thoroughly and participated in the 150m experience. I'm not good with amusement park roller coasters and try to avoid them as much as possible, so I was a bit worried, but looking at the distant scenery made it less scary and quite enjoyable. The weather was nice, and Diamond Head and the town of Waikiki were very beautiful. My children, who are in 6th grade and 1st year of middle school, also seemed to have a great time. The boat was rocking, and the kids got seasick, so I think it's better to take motion sickness medication. The captain was cheerful, but due to language barriers, I couldn't understand much of what he was saying in English. Still, he entertained us with gestures, and I appreciated his consideration for the seasick kids. We tipped $20 for our family of four.

ベルトラの体験談をしっかり読んで150mに参加しました。遊園地のジェットコースターとかも得意ではなく、極力乗らないようにしているので心配もありましたが、遠くの景色を見ていると怖さもそれほどなく楽しめました。天気も良かったのでダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの町がとても綺麗でした。
小学校6年と中学1年の子供達も楽しかったようです。
船が揺れて子供達は船酔いしていたので、酔い止めは飲んだほうが良いと思います。
キャプテンも陽気でしたが、学力の問題で英語は何言ってるかよくわかりませんでした。それでも、ジェスチャーなどで楽しませてくれてましたし、船酔いした子供達への気配りはありがたかったです。
チップは家族4人で20ドルにしました。

My reservation in Japan was canceled due to bad weather, but I changed my mood and rebooked. The weather is improving, and I'm fully enjoying it and grateful to God.

日本での予約が天候不良でキャンセルになったもの、気分を変えて予約入れ直して再度出来ました。天気も回復するし、充分に満喫し神に感謝です( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

First, we were able to have a close conversation with the performers while enjoying champagne and snacks. We were guided backstage, where we received instructions in English and had photos taken at each step. Although we struggled to understand English, we managed to grasp the general idea and had a valuable experience. The meal was served as a course right after we were seated. Since the course included one cocktail per person, we enjoyed our meal while drinking Chi Chi and Hawaiian beer. And finally, it was showtime! Since it was a special occasion, we were thrilled to shake hands and high-five with the performers. The show was incredibly fun from start to finish, creating unforgettable memories! If you're unsure about which show to attend, I highly recommend this one!!! You will have a great time! Thank you for the wonderful dinner show. When I mentioned it was our honeymoon, we received a surprise bottle of champagne, and I was very touched by that thoughtful gesture. The waitress was also very attentive, and I left a generous tip.

まずシャンパンとおつまみを食べながら出演者と身近にお話出来ました。バックステージに案内され、英語で案内をされ都度写真を撮ってもらえました。英語がなかなか聞き取れない私たちでしたが、なんとなく理解はできて貴重な体験が出来ました。食事はコースで着席後すぐに頂けます。カクテルが1人1杯ついているコースでしたので、チチとハワイアンビールを飲みながら食事を堪能しました。そしていよいよショータイム！前例でしたので、出演者の方との握手やハイタッチがたくさん出来て嬉しかったです。ショーも初めから終わりまで、言葉に表せないほど楽しくむちゃくちゃいい思い出作りになりました！もしどのショーに行こうか迷われている方は、絶対こちらのショーはオススメです！！！すごく楽しめます！素敵なディナーショーをありがとうございました。ハネムーンのことをお伝えすると、サプライズでシャンパンを頂けてそのお心遣いも大変嬉しかったです。ウェイトレスさんのご対応もすごく良く、多めのチップを残させて頂きました。

It was raining from the start, but my excitement grew as I felt the tropical rainforest and the waterfall's water volume was amazing. Thank you, Jodi, our guide! I want to make this a tradition in Hawaii! It's definitely worth participating in.

スタートから雨でしたがテンションが上がり熱帯雨林を肌で感じ滝の水量も最高でした
ガイドのジョディさんありがとうHawaiiでの恒例にしたいほどで❗絶対参加する価値ありです

I participated with some skepticism, but the thrill of skydiving has become addictive! It was quite crazy.

The local Japanese or Japanese-descendant coordinator explained the tour details during the trip to and from the location, and that was also crazy, which made it fun!

Especially the coordinator's craziness might be a problem if it were in Japan, but I think it's part of the joy of traveling, and the fun feeling outweighs any concerns, so I don't mind at all! (laughs)

If you have a mindset ready to take on challenges and stay excited, I definitely want to do it again!!

Lastly, for those who get car sick, it's best to take motion sickness medication beforehand!!! (laughs)

Everyone around me was throwing up! It was the best!!!

半信半疑で参加しましたが
スカイダイビングの楽しさは
やみつきになりました！
なかなかクレイジーです。

行き帰りとツアー内容を
現地日本人？日系コーディネーター
の方に説明していただきましたが
これまたクレイジーなので
それも含め楽しかったです！

特にコーディネーターの方の
クレイジー感は日本でしていたら
なかなか問題ありかもしれませんが
旅の醍醐味と思うのと
楽しい気持ちが勝っているなので
なんとも思いません！笑

是非ともチャレンジする気持ちを
持って常にワクワクしていたら
またやりたいと思います！！

最後に車酔いなどする方は
酔い止めは全体に飲んで
おいた方がいいです！！！笑

僕の周りは皆んな吐いてました！
最高です！！！

We participated as a couple, and there was a test drive at the beginning. My husband had no issues with the buggy, but I dropped out! I ended up in the staff's Jeep, which turned out to be great. I was able to enjoy the magnificent scenery. During the two-hour drive, we got to see various filming locations from movies and TV dramas, and the staff were cheerful, creating a very enjoyable atmosphere.

The scenery is just amazing. Many of the staff were very kind. There are other activities as well, so it's definitely a place I want to visit again.

夫婦で参加、はじめにテスト走行あり、主人は問題なくバギーで、私は脱落！先導スタッフのジープへ。でもスタッフのジープで良かったです。壮大な景色を堪能することができました。2時間の走行で映画やTVドラマの撮影場所などところどころを見学、スタッフも陽気な方でとても楽しい雰囲気でした。
とにかく景色が最高です。スタッフも優しい方が多かったです。
他にもアクティビティがあるのでぜひまた訪れたい場所です。

It was January, but the weather was nice and we had a great time. We saw a lot of sea turtles, and the hamburgers we ate on the beautiful ocean were the best! The sandbar was an experience like no other and was truly moving. The kids enjoyed playing beach volleyball. Our Japanese guide was very fun and showed us various scenic photo spots. The staff was lively, and we had a wonderful time. Even with small children, we were able to enjoy ourselves very much.

1月でしたが、天気も良くすっごく楽しかったです。
ウミガメもたくさん見れたし、天気のいい大海原の上で食べるハンバーガーも最高でした！
サンドバーには今までに体験したことがなく感動しました。子供はビーチバレーをして楽しんでました^_^
日本語のガイドさんもとても楽しい方で、色々な写真の絶景ポイントを教えてもらいました。
スタッフさんもノリノリでとてもいい時間を過ごせました。
小さな子供がいてもとても楽しめました。

It was unfortunately rainy on the day, but during the parasailing, the sun came out and a round rainbow appeared below! I felt like I had the rainbow in Hawaii all to myself. I'm glad I decided to try it. It was so much fun.

当日はあいにくの雨でしたがパラセーリングの途中で陽が射し、眼下に円い虹が！
ハワイの虹を独り占めしたような気分になりました。
思い切って体験して良かったです。とても楽しかったです。

Last year, I participated in a tour swimming with dolphins from another company, but this time I joined Dolphin University.

On this day, it was quite difficult to find a spot where the dolphin pod was gathering, but once the snorkeling point was confirmed, I enjoyed watching the dolphins swim right by my feet.

During snorkeling, the staff guides you to where the dolphins are, but those who swim slowly might not make it in time. My fourth-grade son was able to keep up easily.

The slide set up from the boat after snorkeling was also fun, and we got to play on it multiple times.

It's a good idea to bring an action cam for underwater filming.

去年は他社のイルカと一緒に泳ぐツアーに参加しましたが、今回はイルカ大学に参加しました。

この日はイルカの群れが集まっている場所がなかなか見つかりませんでしたが、シュノーケリングポイントが確定してからはイルカの群れが足元を泳いでいくのが楽しめました。

シュノーケリング中にイルカのいる場所までスタッフのみなさんが誘導してくれますが、泳ぎの遅い方は間に合わないかもしれません。
小学４年生の息子は余裕で間に合っていました。

シュノーケリング後にボートから設営されるスライダーも楽しく何度も遊ばせてもらいました。

水中で撮影できるアクションカムを持っていくと良いですよ。

I boarded the ship, listened to lively music, enjoyed delicious drinks, and watched the sunset. The location was absolutely perfect! It's no problem at all if you don't understand English. I was thrilled when I spotted a whale in the distance. I went in January, and it was a bit chilly, so I think those participating in the winter should bring a thicker jacket, like a hoodie, instead of just a cardigan to enjoy without worrying about the cold. I want to ride again and again!

船にのり、ノリの良い音楽を聴きながら美味しいお酒を飲んで、サンセットを見ました。
もうロケーションが最高です！
英語が分からなくても全然問題ないです。
遠くにクジラが見えた時は興奮しました。1月に利用しましたが少し肌寒かったので、冬の時期に参加される方はカーディガンよりパーカー等少し厚めの上着があった方が、寒さを気にせず楽しめると思います。
また何度でも乗りたいです！

I experienced stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) for the first time during a personal trip to celebrate my retirement. Thanks to the instructor, I was able to stand up early on, and I am grateful for the guidance. After returning home, I received the photos and videos taken by the photographer, so I can relive the excitement of my first SUP experience anytime.

定年退職を記念した個人旅行で初めて体験しました。インストラクターのおかげで早い段階で立ち上がる事が出来、指導に感謝です。帰国後カメラマン撮影の写真と動画を送ってもらったのでいつでも感動の初SUP体験を見る事が出来るようになりました。

The local guide was unique and made the sightseeing enjoyable.

Thanks to them, even though I was sleepy from jet lag, I was able to enjoy the tour without sleeping.

I was very satisfied.

名物ガイドさんがユニークで楽しく観光できました。

おかげで、時差ボケで眠かったけど、寝ないで観光できました。

大変満足でした。

I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first visit to Manoa Falls!!! Our guide, Shanti, was very kind and attentive, making the tour enjoyable. They also prepared bug spray and water, which made me feel at ease. There were some tricky spots to walk on, but my 70-year-old father, who doesn't usually exercise, managed to walk through. I was able to fully experience the nature of Hawaii, which I don't usually get to enjoy, and it was a great way to recharge!

ハワイへは何度も行ってますが、マノアの滝はじめて行くことができました！！！
ガイドのシャンティはとても親切丁寧で、楽しくガイドしてくれました。
虫除けやお水なども準備してくれており、安心でした。
足元が悪いところもありますが、普段あまり運動しない70歳の父もなんとか歩けてました
普段、味わうことのできないハワイの自然を全身で感じることが出来、パワーチャージできました！

Horseback riding was fun, but I didn't have much time to enjoy anything else.

I wish there were a tour focused solely on horseback riding.

Above all, the guide was quite disappointing.
(The reviews posted are not reliable.)

I don't think I will sign up for this tour again.

乗馬は楽しかったですが、その他は時間が少ししかないのであまり楽しめませんでした。

乗馬のみのツアーもあればいいのにと思いました。

何よりガイドさんが微妙すぎました。
(投稿されているレビューは当てにならないです)

このツアーにはもう申し込むことは無いと思います。

My little family of 3 took a much-needed, very rare vacation for six days on Oahu, and on the final day scheduled an afternoon sailing cruise. Unfortunately our 22yo daughter was ill and unable to go along with the two of us on the Catamaran, and we were unable to get a refund for her ticket. However, I did not regret a penny we spent on the ride. The captain and crew were entertaining, and kept the beverages flowing along with the banter. They were non-intrusive when we just wanted to enjoy the view and ride, and wonderfully instructive when there were sights to see and safety precautions to take. We loved every minute, and wanted it to last much longer than it did, even though we are not boat-out-on-open-water people at all. Thank you for a wonderful end to our vacation!

It was my first time skydiving. I participated alone and was a bit anxious since I don't speak English, but there were no problems at all. It was the best experience. It's a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand.

人生初めてのスカイダイビング。一人での参加で英語もできないので少し不安でしたが、まったく問題なし。最高の体験ができました。
酔い止めは飲んでおいた方がいいです。

I participated with two friends! When we arrived at Keana Farm, the receptionist first asked for our names and confirmed if we had a reservation. After that, we checked in on an iPad. We stored our valuables in lockers, and any larger bags or hoodies that wouldn’t fit in the lockers were left with the receptionist.

On the second or third zip line, I was told to grab the reddish rope at the landing point, but I couldn't grip it well and ended up reversing, so the instructor had to rescue me. I felt really sorry and apologized, but the instructor was very kind and said it was okay in English. More than anything, it was cool to see them helping me (laughs). Although I couldn't communicate in Japanese, they taught me with gestures. I love thrill rides, so I really enjoyed the zip line!! I want to do it again. The four instructors who accompanied us were all friendly, which was great.

友達2人で参加しました！ケアナファームに着いたらまず受付の人に名前を聞かれ、予約の名前があるかを確認された後、iPadでチェックインをします。その後は貴重品はロッカーに預け、ロッカーに入らない大きめのバックやパーカーは受付の人に預けました。

2個目か3個目のジップラインでゴール地点に赤っぽいロープがあるからそれを握るようにって言われてたのにうまく握れずそのままリバースしてしまいインストラクターの方に救出してもらいました。かなり申し訳なくて謝ったらインストラクターさんすごく優しくて、英語で大丈夫ですよって言ってくれました。それと何より助けてくれてる姿がかっこよかったです（笑）日本語は通じないですが、身振り手振りで教えてくれます。私は絶叫系大好きなのでジップラインすごく楽しめました！！またしたいです。私達についてくれた4人のインストラクターさんも気さくな方ばかりで良かったです。

I had a reservation for 11:15, but we had to gather at 7:15! When we arrived, we ended up waiting for two and a half hours. The course was supposed to be two hours through the mountains and the sea, but we just walked slowly in a single line on horseback. The people in front seemed to be beginners, so we hardly moved, and they suddenly stopped, which made it difficult for those of us behind. I didn't enjoy the horseback riding much, but the scenery was amazing.

11:15の予約ですが、7時15分に集合！着いたら2時間半待ちになっていました。
そして、2時間山と海のコースですけど、ただ馬に乗ってゆっくりゆっくり1列で進むだけでした。前の方は初心者みたいで、全然進まなかったし、急に止まりし、後ろについてのは大変でした。
乗馬にかんしてはあまりに楽しめなかったでしたが、景色は最高でした。

We experienced this as a couple. As soon as we arrived, we were able to board the boat without waiting. There were a total of four groups on the boat. Right after boarding, we were given life jackets and headed out to sea! It was cloudy, so it was cold until we got out to the open water—I regretted not bringing a long-sleeve rash guard, but once we were up in the air, I forgot all about the cold and had so much fun! The 150-meter height and the duration of the flight were longer compared to others, and I didn't feel much fear at all. I had confirmed the photo service for $30 from previous experiences, and I was glad I ordered it because I received photos that I couldn't take myself! The tip and photo service payment are separate, so it's a good idea to bring some small change. You can return within two hours, making it a great way to use your morning or afternoon—highly recommended!

夫婦二人で体験しました。
到着してすぐ、待たずに船に乗れました。合計4組で船に乗りました。
乗ってすぐにライフジャケットを着せてもらって沖へ！
曇っていたので沖に出るまでが寒かったですー長袖のラッシュガードを持って行けばよかったと後悔しましたが、上空は寒さも忘れるくらい楽しかったですー！150メートル、滞空時間もほかに比べて長いですし恐怖感はそこまで感じませんでした。
事前に体験談で確認していた写真サービス30ドル、自分では撮ることができない写真がもらえたので頼んで良かったです！
チップと写真サービスの支払いは別なので細かいお金を少し用意していくといいです。２時間以内で戻って来られるので朝も、午後も有意義に使えるしおススメです！

Our driver was amazing! He kept up a running commentary on all the best places to eat, names of plants, celebrity houses, the works. He was always willing to answer questions no matter how stupid they sounded. He gave up plenty of info on the area we would be snorkeling in and the best parts of the reef to visit. He unfortunately did not have a pair of prescription goggles that I could use (I forgot to mention when booking) but he let me know I could rent a pair at the bay to ensure that I could see all the wonders below the ocean. He also had underwater cameras for purchase which was a bonus!!!

10/10 I would totally book transportation to go snorkeling with this company again.

I participated with my 7-year-old son.
While experiencing the nature and culture of Hawaii from the boat, we encountered three teachers: the dolphin, the whale, and the sea turtle.
My son was super excited by the whale teacher's splash.
We also met many of our favorite green sea turtle teachers.
We had a hard time finding the dolphin teacher, but we finally met just before returning to the harbor and swam with it, even though it was a bit far away.
Thanks to the staff, my son was able to experience all the activities.
I lack physical strength, but thanks to the staff, my son had an unforgettable experience.
I don't know when the next time will be, but I want to build my stamina for a re-enrollment at Dolphin University.

7歳の息子と二人で参加。
船上からのハワイの自然、文化に触れながら先生たちの元へ、
イルカ。クジラ。ウミガメ。三先生に出会えました。
クジラ先生のスプラッシュに息子大興奮。
大好きなアオウミガメ先生にもたくさんであいました。
イルカ先生にはなかなか会えず帰港間際に出会え、少々遠いながらも一緒にドルフィンスイム。
息子、アクティビティーもスタッフの皆様のおかげですべて体験できました。
私は体力がなくスタッフ皆様のおかげで息子が一生の思い出となる経験ができました。
次回はいつになるかわかりませんがイルカ大学再入学のために母は体力をつけたいと思います。

First time paragliding

I participated with my mother and daughter.
It was scary but fun‼️
I got to see Honolulu from the sea.
I was lucky to see whales up close as well.

A tip of $10 is appreciated.
I definitely encourage everyone to give it a try!

ぜひ皆さんもチャレンジして下さいね。

There is a Japanese grandfather, so it's basically okay even if you don't understand English. All the instructors are very kind, so you can feel at ease.

You can add options like video recording for an additional fee, but there are about three types, and the details are all in English, which can be difficult to understand, so just be careful about that.

I recommend it because the scenery is overwhelmingly beautiful compared to skydiving in Japan.

日本人のおじいさんがいるので英語がわからなくても基本的には大丈夫です。
インストラクターのみんなも非常に優しい人ばかりなので安心です。

別料金で映像撮影などのオプションを付けることも出来ますが、３種類ほどありその詳細が全部英文で分かりづらいのでそこだけは注意です。

日本でスカイダイビングするよりも圧倒的に景色が綺麗なのでオススメです。
