All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

I felt the desire to experience a different culture at least once during my trip, so I made a reservation. The venue was located inside the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, which was easily accessible, and I was able to find it without getting lost! Before the show, we enjoyed a buffet with a wide variety of dishes, including some very large pieces of meat, which left us extremely satisfied! During the meal, we could also watch the dance performances, and those who wanted to join in could dance along, which was a lot of fun!

We were able to sit in the front row in the center for the show, and I was moved by the powerful performances. It was a memorable show that I highly recommend!

旅行中に１回は異文化に触れたいと感じ予約をしました。会場はロイヤル・ハワイアン・ショッピングセンター内でアクセスしやすく、迷うことなくたどり着くことができました！ショーの前にビュッフェをいただきましたがお料理も種類豊富で非常に大きなお肉もあり大満足でした！食事中もダンスをみることができ、希望者は一緒に踊ることもできたので楽しかったです！
ショーも真ん中１列目でみることができ迫力ある演目に感動しました。
思い出になるショーでおすすめです！

The venue was compact, so the stage was close and had a powerful impact. I was captivated by the Hawaiian-themed performance, and it became a wonderful memory of my trip.

会場がコンパクトなので舞台が近く迫力がありました。ハワイらしい演出に魅了され、旅の良い思い出になりました。

It was so much fun! 😀 The captain and the crew were very cheerful, and the people who participated in the tower with us were all so much fun, which made it even more enjoyable. 😃 We took a lot of pictures and were able to create wonderful memories.

最高に楽しかったです😀船長さん達がとても陽気で、一緒にタワー参加した人達もとっても楽しい人ばかりで何倍も楽しめました😃写真もいっぱい撮ってもらって、思い出を残す事ができました。

This was AWESOME! I was terrified of going in the water but Ro and Lucas made the experience so much more comfortable with all their knowledge and experience. These people are so fun and made this experience better than I could have imagined! Definitely recommend the photo package!

The check-in location was mixed with other tours from the same company, so if you arrive early, there will be staff to guide you. Those who arrived just in time seemed to check with others around them and lined up.

I was prepared for seasickness, but the rocking was mild enough that I didn't need any motion sickness medication. The whales were quite far away even when we reached the point. In fact, the whale that appeared unexpectedly was the closest one we saw. The view from the sea was also fantastic.

It's all in English, but as long as you understand some words, there won't be any issues.

チェックイン場所は、同じ会社の他のツアーが混在していたので、早めに到着していればスタッフの誘導がありました。
ギリギリの方は周りの方に確認して並んでいた様です。(全て英語です)
船酔い覚悟していましたが、酔い止め薬が無くても問題無い程の揺れでした。
クジラは、ポイントに到着してもだいぶ遠かったです。寧ろふいに現れたクジラが1番近くで見れました。海からの景色も最高でした。
英語のみですが、単語が分かれば全く問題無いです。

I participated in a meeting that started in the afternoon around December 20th. There were two groups of Japanese people, including us, and the rest were other Asian individuals. The person who spoke Japanese was wonderful, so it wasn't a problem that we couldn't speak English. The weather was perfect for December, with no wind, and we could see the clear sea! After playing with the SUP and ball for about an hour, we all went snorkeling together. We saw about five sea turtles, and it was difficult not to get too close because we saw so many! The guides were fantastic!

12月20日ごろの午後スタートの会に参加しました。
日本人は私たち含め、2組であとは他のアジア系の方でした。
日本語が話せる方が素敵な方なので、英語が喋れなくても問題ないです。
天候は12月では最高のタイミングで、風もなく、透明に海が見えました！
1時間くらいはSUPやボールで遊んだらしたりしたあと、みんなでシュノーケルをしました。
ウミガメも5匹くらい見て、接近しないようにするのが難しかったくらい、たくさん見れました！
ガイドさんたちが素敵です！

Waking up early was tough, but it was definitely worth it! At Diamond Head, they lend you hand lights, so you don't need to bring anything. The view from the top was amazing! I also got to see many beautiful sights at the beach and in nature. Jonah shared the scenery, delicious restaurants, and information about Hawaii while driving, making the journey very enjoyable. Haleiwa Town on the North Shore was a great place for shopping at famous stores like Patagonia and enjoying acai bowls, which left me very satisfied! The nuts from the macadamia nut farm were delicious, and before I knew it, I had bought a lot of souvenirs (laughs). At the coffee farm I was aiming for, there were so many coffee beans to choose from that time flew by!

I highly recommend joining the tour for anyone who is considering it!

朝早くから大変ですが早起きしたかいがありました！
ダイヤモンドヘッドではハンドライトも貸してもらえるため必要なものは何もありません。
頂上からの景色は最高でした！
そのほかにもビーチや自然のなかで素敵な景色をたくさん見られました。
ジョナさんが運転中にも見える景色や美味しいお店、ハワイのことを紹介してくれる為、移動中もとても楽しめました。
ノースショアのハレイワタウンはpatagoniaなどの有名店でのショッピングやアサイーボウルも食べられ、大満足でした！
マカダミアナッツ農園のナッツもおいしく、気づけばお土産をたくさん買っていました(笑)
お目当てのコーヒー農園では、たくさんのコーヒー豆があり、よりどりみどりで時間が過ぎるのがあっという間でした！

ツアーに参加するか迷っている人はぜひ参加をオススメします！

Since there were only two groups, we were able to return to the departure point in about 40 minutes. The guide was friendly and engaging, which made the experience enjoyable, and I'm glad I participated! I had read in reviews that the boat could be very rocky, so I brought motion sickness medication from Japan. Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy the ride without feeling seasick, even with the intense rocking of the boat!

２組だけだったので、４０分くらいで出発場所に戻ってくることができました。ガイドさんもフレンドリーに話しかけてくれて楽しませてくれて、参加してよかったです！ボートがすごく揺れると口コミで見たので酔い止めを日本から持っていきました。そのおかげで、ものすごい船の揺れにも全く酔わず楽しむことができました！

Cirque du Soleil Hawaii put on a masterful show of graceful acrobatics and other tricks accompanied by beautiful island music. Well done.

Cruise was about average. Some music was stuff I have never heard of, other songs were very nice. The bar ran out of some of the alcohol about 45 minutes into sailing.

On the day of the reservation, there were quite a few passengers, even standing room only. As we set sail, the waves grew higher, which was exciting! I had a great time laughing with other customers. We were supposed to see Diamond Head, but before we knew it, we made a U-turn?? I thought the swaying of the boat was part of the captain's technique to entertain us, but... due to bad weather, it ended abruptly after about an hour. All the announcements were in English, so it would be nice if announcements in other languages could be provided as well. I think it's great that if you miss out, you can either reboard or get a refund.

予約当日は立ち見する方もいる位の乗船者がいらっしゃいました。
出航するにつれて波が高く期待大！他のお客様と大笑いしながら楽しかったです。
ダイヤモンドヘッド方面で見る予定になっていましたが気が付けばUターン？？
船の揺れも船長さんのテクニックで楽しませてくれていると思いきや・・・
悪天候の為約１時間程度であっという間に終了しました。
アナウンスは全て英語なので、他言語用のアナウンスも用意して頂けると嬉しいかもです。
見れなかった場合は再乗船もしくは返金対応して頂けるのは良いと思います。

There were thrilling action-packed shows and entertaining performances that made me laugh, and I had an amazing time.

手に汗握るアクション的なショーもあり、笑ってしまうようなエンターテイメントもあって、最高な時を過ごせました。

It was surprisingly uncrowded, with few Japanese people, giving it a foreign theme park feel. There's quite a lot to see, and if you take your time, one day won't be enough.

意外と空いてました、日本人は少なく外国テーマパークという感じです。かなりのボリュームでゆっくり見たら1日で足りません。

We booked the Captain Bobs experience and it was 10/10. We played volleyball, went snorkeling and had a BBQ lunch. The crew was super sweet and professional!!!

Although it was a small space, I was captivated by the dynamic performances and composition, losing track of time while enjoying it. I'm looking forward to the next performance in Japan!

こじんまりした空間ながら躍動感ある演技と構成に魅了され時間を忘れて楽しめました。次回日本での公演楽しみにしています！

We didn’t see much through the glass bottom areas but were able to see lots of fish and even turtles swimming next to the boat! My daughter was too young to snorkel and this was the perfect option for us.

I could only see them from a distance, but the staff worked hard to help us spot the whales, and we all had a great time! The weather was nice, and it was enjoyable as a cruise too!

遠くにしか見れませんでしたが、スタッフの方々も一生懸命にクジラを探してくれて、皆で楽しめました！天気も良く、クルーズ🚢としても楽しめました！

I was able to see sea turtles from the boat, but it was difficult to swim with them as I had imagined. Since all the explanations were in English, I could enjoy the exotic atmosphere, but there were parts I didn't fully understand, which made me a bit anxious. The weather was nice, but perhaps because it was the rainy season, the sea was murky, and I couldn't see down to the bottom. Still, I think it was a valuable experience.

船の上からウミガメを見ることができたのですが、想像していた一緒に泳ぐことは難しかったです。説明は全て英語のため、異国気分を味わうことは出来ましたが、全て理解できないので不安な部分はありました。天気はよかったのですが、雨季だからか海が濁っていて、下まで見ることが出来ませんでした。それでも貴重な経験ができたと思います。

I initially thought I would have too much free time with five hours, but instead, I was able to explore the town of Haleiwa at my own pace without feeling rushed. I visited various shops that caught my interest and took plenty of photos, allowing me to leisurely stroll around. In the past, I participated in a tour with only three hours of free time, which felt rushed and left me unable to fully enjoy the beach. This time, however, I had enough time to visit the beach as well, which greatly increased my satisfaction. Overall, the timing was just right. I believe this tour is perfect for those who want to take their time exploring the town of Haleiwa.

自由時間が５時間なので最初は時間が余ってしまうかと思っていましたが逆に時間に追われることなく、ハレイワの街を端から端まで気になるお店があれば立ち寄ったり、写真に納めたりと、とにかくゆっくりと散策することができました。以前は３時間の自由時間に参加したこともありますが慌ただしくビーチの方まで行く時間がなく消化不良気味でしたが今回はビーチにも行く余裕があり満足度が高かったです。結果、時間的にも丁度でした。ゆっくりハレイワの街を散策したい方にはピッタリのツアーだと思います。

Everyone was very friendly, and we easily overcame the language barrier! The transportation with pick-up service was reassuring. The scenery was incredibly beautiful and it was the best!

とてもフレンドリーで言語の壁もなんなく乗り越えられました！
送迎付きで交通手段は安心。
景色もすごく綺麗で最高でした！

I was surprised that we went quite far by boat, but it was really fun!
150 meters was pretty high and a bit scary, but it was a valuable experience and I'm really glad I did it!
The staff were kind, and there were some Japanese tourists, so we took pictures of each other and sent them via AirDrop! (laughs)

船で結構遠くまで行くのでびっくりしましたが本当に楽しかったです！
150mはかなり高くて怖さもありましたが、貴重な経験で本当にやってよかったです！
スタッフの方々も優しく、観光客で日本人の方がいたのでお互いに写真を撮ってAirDropで送り合いました！笑

It was an overwhelming feeling of nature's greatness, even higher than skyscrapers! The staff also made it fun for us to play!

自然の凄さがわかる感じと高層ビルよりも高い圧倒的な感じでした！
スタッフの方も楽しく遊ばしてくれました！

I encountered a rock and hula show during a peaceful Hawaiian sunset. The passionate melodies of the guitar and the powerful beats of the drums awakened a deep passion within me, creating a moment where the entire audience felt like one, experiencing a miraculous dream. Wrapped in the magic of music, it became the best experience that never got boring, and that moment became a lifelong treasure.

I felt a refreshing fusion of hula dance and rock.

At the buffet before the show, exquisite dishes made from local ingredients were lined up, creating a flavorful experience.

After the show, the expressions of the audience soaking in the afterglow were filled with satisfaction and happiness, making it the best experience etched in my heart.

It's one of the activities I want to participate in again when I come back to Hawaii!

ハワイの穏やかな夕暮れで、ロックアフラのショーに出会いました。ギターの熱い旋律とドラムの力強いビートが、心の奥底に眠る情熱を呼び覚まして、観客全員が一体となる瞬間に、夢のような奇跡を感じました。音楽の魔法に包まれ、飽きのこない最高の体験となり、その瞬間が一生の宝物となりました。
フラダンスとロックの融合を感じることが出来、とても新鮮さを感じました。
ショーの前のビュッフェでは、地元の食材を生かした絶品料理が次々と並び、味わい深い一時を演出していました。
ショーが終わった後、余韻に浸る観客の表情は満足感と幸福で溢れており、心に刻まれる最高の体験になりました。
またハワイに来た際には、参加したいアクティビティの1つです！

I previously used another tour, but this one was definitely better! Kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, snorkeling, and above all, it felt like we were playing with turtles on the banana boat!

以前他のツアーを利用しましたが、断然今回が良かった！　カヤック　サップ　シュノーケリング　何よりバナナボートで亀のと一緒に遊んだ感じでした！

It was an emotional experience.
The seat was in the middle of the fourth row on the right side from the stage. I think it was just the right distance from the stage, not too close and not too far.
Every performance was wonderful, and there were also productions happening in the aisles, so I enjoyed it very much even though I wasn't sitting directly in front. In fact, if you sit directly in front, you might not be able to see the productions in the back aisle very well?

感動的な体験でした。
席は舞台から見て右側の4列目の真ん中です。近すぎず、遠すぎず、舞台に丁度いい距離感だと思います。
どの演出も素晴らしくて、舞台だけではなくて、通路にも演出を行なってたので、真正面の席じゃなくてもとても楽しめました。むしろ、真正面ですと、後ろの通路の演出あまり見れないかもしれません？

I had heard it was 150 meters high, so I was worried about being scared, but it was so much fun! The color of the ocean from the sky was beautiful, and the view of Honolulu while paragliding was magnificent and moving. If you're hesitating, I definitely think you should participate. I would love to join again if I have the chance.

高さ150メートルと聞いていたので怖かったらどうしようと心配でしたが、とても楽しかったです！
空から見る海の色はとてもきれいなのに加え、パラセーリング中に見るホノルルの景色は壮大で感動的でした。
悩んでいるならぜひ参加したほうがいいと思います。
また機会があったらぜひ参加したいです。

2hour Raptor tour, great experience for our group

I enjoyed the speed of the buggy, felt the Hawaiian breeze, and fully experienced the mountains, ocean, and nature. It was also fun to see the filming locations. The instructor was great at boosting the mood. The shuttle bus was comfortable, too, as it was a Mercedes-Benz.

バギーのスピード感、ハワイの風を感じて、山、海と大自然を満喫できました。
ロケ地を見るのも楽しかったです。
インストラクターも盛り上げてくれて気分が上がります。
送迎バスもベンツで快適でした。

The participation day was very few, and it was almost like a private charter. The weather was nice, and the sea was so clear that I could see the bottom. I could even see fish resting on the seabed! There were also a few turtles swimming, which was amazing!

The boat has a restroom, but I didn't use it, so I can't say if it's clean. However, I saw a few others using it. You can buy drinks on board (soft drinks and alcohol), and they also mentioned that snacks are available for free. I tried the recommended snacks, and they were truly free.

After the experience, there aren't many places to change out of your swimsuit, but the restroom on the first floor of the hotel where the reception is located was not locked, so I could change there. No one seemed to get seasick during the sailing. Depending on the time, you might see dolphins jumping in the distance, and in February and March, you can also see whales. On the day of the experience, I spotted dolphins and whales a bit far away while sailing!

参加日はとても少なくほぼ貸し切り状態でした。天気ぐ良く海も底が見えるまで透き通っていました。海底で休んでいる魚も見えました！亀も数匹泳いでおり最高でした！
船にはお手洗いもありますが使用していないので綺麗かは分かりません…。他の方は何人か使用されていました。後払いですが飲み物も船上で買えます。(ソフトドリンクやお酒など)またスナック菓子を無料で食べてねと言われます。おすすめを食べましたが本当に無料でした。
体験後、水着を着替えるところはあまりありませんが受付のあるホテルの一階のお手洗いはロックがかかっておらず使用できたのでそこで着替えることも出来ます。セーリングで酔っている方も居ませんでした。時間によってはイルカが跳ねているところが遠くに見えたり、2~3月はクジラも見れたりします。体験日はセーリング中にイルカやクジラが少し遠くに見えました！

Driving the buggy was easy, and we were able to explore all areas! During the tour, all explanations were in English, but there was no problem since we were shown a Japanese video with precautions for riding the buggy beforehand! The staff were friendly and engaged with us a lot, which made it enjoyable!

バギーの運転も簡単で、全てのエリアを周ることができました！
ツアー中は全て英語での説明ですが、事前にあったバギーを乗る際の注意事項は日本語のビデオを見せていただけたので問題なかったです！
スタッフの方も気さくで、楽しめるようにたくさん話しかけてくださってよかったです！
