Oahu
It seems that a sandy beach forms in the middle of the sea due to the tides, but when I participated, the water was already up to my waist, so I couldn't walk on the beach.
I went snorkeling to see turtles and fish in deeper areas, but I gave up halfway. I was thinking, "Oh, I wanted to see them..." when the staff called a turtle over (was it their pet? lol), and I was able to swim with the turtle in shallower water! So, don't worry if you can't snorkel... it's not a big deal!
After that, we played on stand-up paddleboards and had a BBQ lunch on the boat! The food was really delicious!! The staff were bright and funny people! I wish I had given them a tip (;^_^A.
満ち引きによって海の真ん中に砂浜ができるみたいなのですが、私が参加したときはもう腰くらいまで海水があって砂浜を歩くことはできませんでした。
シュノーケルで深いところまで行ってカメや魚を見るのですが、私は途中までいって断念。あーあ、見たかったなー・・・と思っていたらスタッフさんがカメを呼んでくれて(スタッフさんのペット?笑)浅いところでもカメと泳ぐことができました!
ですからシュノーケルできないし・・・と残念に思わなくて大丈夫です!
そのあとはスタンドアップボードで遊んだり、船の上でBBQランチ!
料理がとてもおいしかったです!!
スタッフさんも明るくて面白い方でした!チップ渡せばよかった(;^_^A
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for joining us. The turtles are such important companions that they almost feel like they work for our company, entertaining our guests! They are 100% wild, though. I’m really glad you were able to swim with the turtles! We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。カメさんは、ペットと言いますか、むしろ弊社で働いているんじゃないか!!と思うくらい、お客様を楽しませてくれる大事な仲間です。100%野生なんですけどね。カメさんと泳ぐことが出来て本当によかったです! またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
My family had a great time. Thanks Riley and your team for an outstanding customer service, very well organized and awesome hospitality.
From the first day I arrived, I went to the catamaran.
The "blue sky" of Waikiki and the elegant moments on the catamaran.
"It's the best."
For some reason, I was the only Japanese person there.
Even so, I made friends with a diverse group of participants (not just Americans).
"It's the best."
Everyone, please join in!
着いた初日から 行きましたよ。カタマラン号へ
ワイキキの ’青い空’ そして カタマラン号の 優雅なひととき。
”最高ですね”。
なぜか、ジャパニーズは私一人です。
それでも、国際色豊かな(アメリカ人だけじゃありませんよ。) 参加者と お友達になって
”最高ですよ。”
皆さん、参加して下さいよ。
We participated as a family of three because we wanted to see the sandbar. Since two of us can't swim, we were looking for a tour that would be easy for non-swimmers to join, and we found this one.
The Angel Sea was very beautiful! Perhaps due to the timing, the sandbar wasn't visible, but the water's clarity was incredible! We learned how to use the snorkeling gear and had a fun experience in a safe area. We also got to see sea turtles from the boat and throw bread to the fish, which was a unique experience. The hamburger we had on the boat was delicious!
サンドバーが見たくて家族3人で参加しました。3人のうち2人が泳げないので、そういう人も気軽に参加できるツアーを探してたところこちらのツアーを見つけ、今回参加してみました。
天使の海はとても綺麗でした!時間帯のせいか中洲は現れてなかったのですが、海の透明度が半端なかったです!そこでシュノーケリングの使い方を習い、安全な場所で楽しく体験出来ました。また、船から海ガメを見ることができたり、魚にパンを投げたり今までにない体験が出来ました。船の中で食べたハンバーガーは美味しかった!
Loved the volleyball game- perfect fun for my teenage boys! We saw lots of turtles and a Ray! Enjoyed the excursion!!! Thanks to you- a happy crew
This tour was wonderful. I’d been to Pearl Harbor years ago with family. The tour added an xtra touch - our tour guide, Marlon, was an added bonus. He spoke with reverence and compassion and gave us a lot of local information and history. Definitely recommend!
I signed up for the buffet course, but the live performance was only held on the second floor, and we were seated on the first floor, so we couldn't enjoy the performance. After finishing our meal, we were on the deck on the third floor, but I felt that the all-you-can-eat appetizers and drinks course might have been better. However, the fireworks on Friday were wonderful. It was truly a luxurious time.
ブッフェコースを申し込みましたが、生演奏は二階席のみで行われていて、自分達は一階席だったので、演奏は楽しめませんでした。食事を済ませ、三階のデッキに居ましたが、アペタイザー&ドリンク飲み放題のコースの方が良かったような気もしました。でも金曜日の花火は素晴らしかったです。それはもう贅沢な時間でした。
I had always wanted to go after seeing it on TV and in magazines, but it was incredibly small, and I was able to go around it in no time. The slides were all quite similar, and I wished there were more regular pools. Moreover, the wave pool requires an additional fee, and the lockers are expensive, so they really charge you for everything.
The good points were that it was very empty and the hamburgers were fairly tasty. The Shaka was interesting.
テレビや雑誌で見ててずっと行きたいと思っていたのですが、めちゃくちゃ狭くてすぐに一周周れてしまいました。
スライダーも、同じようなものばかりで、普通のプールがもっとあればいいなと思いました。
しかも、波乗りするプールは別料金だしロッカーも高いし、何かとぼったくります。
良かった点は、めちゃくちゃ空いてたことと、ハンバーガーがまあまあ美味しかったことくらい、、、。
シャカは面白かったです。
Everyone in my family really enjoyed the Polynesian culture center! The guide was amazing, Ian And everyone was so kind. They made a special effort to entertain my eight-year-old which was really nice.
Yuki, the Japanese staff member, accompanied us and provided various explanations. It was clear that the other staff members were also attentive to safety. The hamburgers we had for lunch were delicious. Since we went out on a sunny day, it seemed that members who used sun visors also got sunburned on their heads. Don't forget hats and sunscreen!
We had a valuable experience encountering sea turtles and swimming around the coral reefs while snorkeling. It's understandable that there are repeat visitors.
日本人スタッフユキさんが同乗、色々説明していただき、また他のスタッフも安全に配慮している様子がうかがえました。お昼のハンバーガーが美味しかったです。晴天日に出かけたので、サンバイザー使用のメンバーは頭も日焼けしたようです。帽子、日焼け止めなど忘れずに!
うみがめとの遭遇、シュノーケルでサンゴ礁の周りを泳いだり、と貴重な体験をしました。リピーターの方がいらっしゃるのも納得です
Great people and entertainment. Definitely recommend this show to anyone

There was no BBQ, and the buffet was quite terrible. I would recommend not ordering it. Everything else was satisfactory, but you should definitely avoid the BBQ plan.
BBQ は無く、かなり酷いバイキングでした。
頼まない方がいいかと。
他は満足ですが絶対にBBQプラン頼まない方がいいです。
The sunset dinner was truly a great experience. Everything was very well organized. We were served champagne to begin with and helped ourselves to fresh cheese, crackers and fruit trays. And those were left out for everyone the entire trip, which is beneficial when you have kids who might not like the whole dinner but still want to eat something. The entire dinner was fresh and tasty, and plentiful. Beverages were refilled as necessary but there weren't a lot of soda options. The sunset was beautiful. You just have to keep watch for the ideal time to take pictures of your experience. The entertainment was great, with music and dancers. Great experience overall!!
Initially, I considered taking the city bus without a pickup service, but as of May 2019, there was no bus stop nearby, so I opted for this tour with a pickup service. Since I went on a weekday, the waiting time was relatively short, and I had a great time! It was a bit disappointing that the jacuzzi was closed and that the lazy river wasn't operating that day, possibly due to a shortage of staff.
最初は送迎なしで市バスで行こうか考えましたが、2019年5月時点、近くにバス停がなかったため、送迎付きのこのツアーを利用しました。
平日に行ったので、待ち時間も比較的少なく、楽しめました!
ジャグジーが閉鎖されていたこと、スタッフ数が足りないためか、流れるプール?は、その日実施していなかったのは少し残念でした。
It was my first time watching fireworks. It was a wonderful time and I had fun. The fireworks were beautiful, and the food was good.
花火観賞は初めてでした。
素敵な時間になり楽しかったです
花火も綺麗だったし、食事もgood
The staff members were very good! It was reassuring because everything was easy to understand in Japanese. The malasadas and lunch we had on the boat were even more delicious than we expected.
スタッフの方々がとても良い!日本語でわかりやすいので安心でした。船の上で食べるマラサダとランチが期待以上に美味しかったです。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. We appreciate your warm words to our staff. We all look forward to welcoming you back again.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。スタッフへの暖かいお言葉、ありがとうございます。 またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
It was a viewing experience combined with dining in the VIP seats. It was quite a show! You can enjoy it fully even from seats that are not in the VIP section, so I also recommend watching the show from the general seating. You can enjoy it from any chair.
VIP席での食事を兼ねた観覧でした。いや、なかなかのショーですよ!!
舞台前のVIP席でなくとも充分楽しめますので、観覧席からのショーだけの観覧もお薦めです。どの椅子からも楽しめます。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you come to Hawaii again.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
Meal was so wonderful! Even the veggie hamburger provided us was wonderful!
The dancers were so amazing! And entertaining! Entertained to well past docking!
If I had a suggestion it would be for the website to further explain, or make it easier to order the veggie burger.
Since this is my second time participating, I chose the buffet dinner option. The entertainment starts with the meal, as the servers are actually dancers who will perform in the show later. They kept the atmosphere lively while we waited for our food, and the hula dance performance was enjoyable.
As for the main show, it features not only hula and fire dancing but also impersonators of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, complete with must-have songs and the moonwalk. Both performers interact with the audience, going beyond just the VIP seats on the first floor to visit the second floor as well, showing great enthusiasm for customer service. After the show, you can take photos and shake hands with them.
Overall, I was very satisfied and highly recommend it.
今回2回目の参加なのでビュッフェディナー付きを選択。この食事からエンターテイメントは始まっていて、給仕されてる方がこの後のショーに出演するダンサーさんで食事が出るまでの時間を盛り上げたりフラダンスの披露等楽しかったです。
本番のショーですがフラダンスにファイアーダンスは元よりエルビスプレスリーやマイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんショーでも外せない曲やムーンウォークもしっかり押さえてます。
また二人とも歌いながら客席内に入って握手やプレゼントを配ったりしますがいわゆる1階のvip席だけでなく2階席にまで足を運んでくれる等サービス精神が旺盛で、ショー終了後には一緒に並んで写真撮影や握手も出来ます。
総じて満足度は高いのでお勧めです。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you come to Hawaii again.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
The sandbar was more beautiful than I expected, and I was moved. Kailua Beach was also breathtaking. The Lanikai Pillbox was steeper than I anticipated and quite challenging.
サンドバーが予想以上に綺麗で感動しました。
カイルアビーチも絶景でした。
ラニカイピルボックスが予想以上に急斜面で
大変でした。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We appreciate you sharing your photos enjoying the sandbar and Kailua. The pictures from the Pillbox are also very beautiful! We all look forward to welcoming you back again.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。サンドバー、カイルアを満喫した写真のシェアありがとうございます。ピルボックスからの写真もとても綺麗ですね!! またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I went snorkeling for the first time. To be honest, I'm not a good swimmer and I was scared of not being able to touch the ground, but since I came all the way to Hawaii, I thought I should give it a try at least once. The ocean was so beautiful, and it was a lot of fun swimming while looking at the underwater scenery. I didn't see any dolphins on the first try, and on the second try, I was too tired and just watched from the boat.
For lunch, they give you a hamburger, and you can add tomatoes, lettuce, ketchup, and mustard while sitting down, so you don't have to worry. The hamburgers and snacks were delicious, and the view was stunning—it was the best! Many people got seasick, so I strongly recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance if you're worried about that.
初めてシュノーケリングをしました。
実は泳ぐのが苦手で地に足が着かないのも怖くて嫌だったのですが、せっかくハワイに来たので1回くらい…と思って参加しました。
海がとても綺麗で、海の中を見ながら泳げてとても楽しかったです。
1回目ではイルカが見れず、2回目は体力がなくて船の上から見ました(^^;
お昼のハンバーガーは貰ってからトマトやレタス、ケチャップやマスタードをつけてくれるので座ってて大丈夫です。
ハンバーガーもスナックも美味しいし景色も綺麗で最高でした!
船酔いする方が多かったので、心配な方は事前に酔い止めを飲むのを強くオススメします。
The staff and guides were all kind, and they took wonderful photos for us. I was a bit anxious about when to give a tip, but they helped by indicating the right timing. I'm glad I went snorkeling.
スタッフ、ガイドさんたちがみなさん親切でステキな写真も撮っていただけました。どのタイミングでチップを渡すのかわからずソワソワしていたのですが、むこうからタイミングを示していただけたので助かりました。シュノーケリングやってよかったです。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We appreciate your thoughtful tip. We are glad to hear that you were satisfied with our staff's service. All of our staff sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。チップのお心遣いありがとうございました。スタッフのサービスに満足して頂けたようで、嬉しく思います。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I wanted to ride the Star of Honolulu, but after seeing reviews about the buffet being overcrowded, I chose this one instead. It was a good decision as we were shown to our reserved seats and it wasn't cramped at all!
The Atlantis is three stories tall. There was a photo opportunity before the cruise, and you can purchase the photos later. (You can choose between just photos or photos & data, and I recommend the photos & data option. You can check the data via email right away.)
I made a reservation for the dinner buffet instead of just appetizers. We were seated on the second floor, which is recommended because there are hula shows and live performances. Plus, our seats were close to the show! I was able to dance with the dancers, which made for a great memory.
Although the selection of the buffet was limited, I still ended up quite full. Additionally, each table has a designated server, so you can order drinks from them, but the drinks do take a little while to arrive. When ordering drinks, you have to leave your credit card with them until the check is settled, which was a bit nerve-wracking... I think there might have been other options, but I can't remember. Fortunately, nothing went wrong.
Before the fireworks, we went out to the deck to watch, and after the fireworks, we returned to the second floor for a finale interactive dance show with the staff.
In the end, everyone got excited, and it was a lot of fun! It became a wonderful memory!
スターオブホノルルに乗りたかったのですが、ビュッフェ形式のランクものは、ギュウギュウに詰め込まれるという口コミを見て、こちらにしました。
予約席に通してもらえ、ギュウギュウ詰めにもならず、正解でした!
アトランティスは3階建て。
クルーズ前に写真撮影があり、後から購入できます。
(写真のみと写真&データ購入が選べるので、写真&データがオススメ。メールでデータがすぐに確認できます。)
アペタイザーではなく、ディナービュッフェで予約。
通されたのは2階席でした。
2階席は、フラショーや生演奏があるのでオススメです。しかも、ショーに近い席でした!
ダンサーさんと一緒に踊ることができ、いい思い出となりました。
ビュッフェの数は少ないですが、けっこうお腹いっぱいになります。
また、テーブルごとに担当者がつくので、ドリンクはその方に頼めばいいのですが、ドリンクが出てくるのは若干遅いです。
ドリンクを注文する時は、クレジットカードを最初からチェックするまでずっと預けるのですが、これが少し怖かったです…他にも方法があったと思うのですが、覚えておりません。
一応、何事もなかったです。
花火の前にはデッキへ出て鑑賞し、花火鑑賞後に、また2階席に戻ると、スタッフの方々とフィナーレの参加型ダンスショーがありました。
最後はみんなで盛り上がって、とても楽しかったです!いい思い出になりました!
The weather was great! The hamburgers were delicious! It's just a shame that I couldn't see many sea turtles.
天気も良くて最高でした!
ハンバーガーも美味しかったです!
ただウミガメがあまりみれなかったのが残念でした
It was truly American entertainment. Absolutely professional!! I enjoyed it thoroughly even from the second floor. I will come again next year. Mahalo!
アメリカンエンターテーメントそのものでした。まさにプロフェッショナル!!
二階席でもじゅうにぶんに楽しめました。また来年も来ます。マハロ!
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you come to Hawaii again.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
I had a great time with my close friends at the beautiful sea, playing with sea turtles and enjoying snorkeling! The barbecue was incredibly delicious, and the staff were so much fun; it was the best! I was so happy to laugh so much on a magical carpet floating on the sea. I want to go again! Hawaii is amazing. This tour was awesome!
仲の良い仲間と綺麗な海、ウミガメと戯れ、シュノーケリングも楽しみました!!
バーベキューもめちゃくちゃ美味しくて、スタッフの皆さんが楽しくて最高でした!!海に浮かぶ魔法のじゅうたん一枚であんなに笑えるとはすごく笑って幸せでした。
また行きたいです!!
ハワイサイコー
このツアーサイコー
でした。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. The magic carpet may seem plain at first glance, but it's really fun!! We're glad you understood that joy!! We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。一見地味に見える魔法のじゅうたんですが、面白いんですよね!!あの楽しさを分かって頂けて嬉しいです!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
My clients had nothing but good things to say about this experience!
I went with my 8-year-old daughter. We slid down multiple slides from the beginning and conquered everything except for those that were restricted by height. Even though some were a bit scary for adults, she enjoyed it so much that she kept asking to go again, which was a relief. Carrying the float by myself was a bit tough with the stairs, but the fun outweighed that challenge. We didn't add lunch or all-you-can-drink options, and that was the right choice. We played continuously and ended up taking a break just an hour before the meeting time. The portion sizes were large, so a set of chicken and fries along with one drink was enough for both of us. My child was so excited and said she definitely wants to come back when we visit Hawaii again!
8歳の娘と2人で。初めからスライダーを何本も滑り、身長制限でダメだった物以外は制覇しました。大人でもちょっと怖い感じで、嫌がるかと思ったらもう1回もう1回とかなり楽しんでいて安心。私1人で浮輪を運ぶのは階段もあるので少しキツかったですが楽しさの方が勝りました。ランチや飲み放題は付けなかったですが正解です。遊び続けて結局集合の1時間前に休憩し
量も多いのでチキンとポテトのセットとドリンク1つで2人で十分でした。
またハワイに来たら絶対また来たい!と子供も大興奮でした。
The Sandbar was breathtaking. We took so many beautiful pics to remember our tour. I would definitely go back with people that haven’t been there just to take more pics. You can play volleyball at the Sandbar and practice snorkeling before the deep sea snorkeling afterwards. Staff was the friendliest and made it a memorable experience. Go, you won’t regret going.
Beautiful and a lot of fun!! The staff was knowledgeable and very friendly. I loved seeing the sea turtles and feeding the fish on the snorkeling part of the excursion. Sandbar volleyball was fun! I LOVED this excursion!!
