Oahu
The catamaran is so clean and has a bar onboard. The staff is amazing and everyone made us feel comfortable and ready for snorkling.
We participated in the VIP+ Backstage Tour. There were only the two of us on this course! It was a fun and unique experience that gave us a sense of superiority. The delicious cocktails and lobster were amazing! The main dishes—steak, salmon, and truffle potatoes—were all delicious! Unfortunately, since we are not from the Elvis generation, there were many photos of Michael Jackson instead. We enjoyed it from the front row, center seats. The Hawaiian female singer, female dancers, and male dancers were impressive! The dining staff also engaged with us. It felt great. The first photo taken with Elvis was included (which costs 2500 yen if you don't participate in the backstage tour), so it was definitely worth the price.
VIP+バックステージツアーに参加。このコース参加は我々夫婦二人だけ!未体験の初体験で優越感もあって楽しかったです。美味しいカクテル、ロブスター美味しい!メインのステーキ、サーモン、トリュフポテト、全部美味しい!残念ながら、エルビス世代ではないので、やっぱり、マイケル・ジャクソンの写真撮影多数。一番前の中央かぶりつきシートで堪能しました。ハワイアンも女性シンガー、女性ダンサー、男性ダンサー、迫力有り!食事のスタッフも声をかけてくれます。いい感じです。最初にエルビスと撮った写真が含まれていて(バックツアー参加してないと2500円)、価格的には充分な価値有ります。
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。
It seemed that 90% of the passengers were American. I think it would be better to display the drink menu as well. I was worried about seasickness, but I didn't experience any at all, and it was great to go quite far offshore and see a different side of Hawaii.
乗船者の9割がアメリカ人と思われた。ドリンクもメニューを掲示するとかした方が良いと思う。心配していた船酔いは全くなく、結構沖合いまで行けて違った面のハワイを見れて良かった。
We went to the sandbar on a clear day. During this season, the water level was up to our waists, so we couldn't walk on the sand like you see on TV. However, we had a great time snorkeling with colorful fish and sea turtles.
Lunch was a buffet with surprisingly delicious meat, salads, and fruits. The staff were very friendly, encouraging us to have seconds and even taking photos for us, making it a really enjoyable tour. The group photo turned out great and will be a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.
I would love to join again during low tide.
快晴の中サンドバーへ。この時期は水位が腰位まであり、テレビで見るような砂の上を歩くことはできませんでした。その分シュノーケルではカラフルな魚やウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことが出来、大いに盛り上がりました。
ランチはビュッフェでお肉やサラダ、フルーツなど思いの外美味しく、スタッフもお代わりを勧めてくれたり、写真を撮ってくれたりととてもフレンドリーで楽しいツアーでした。集合写真もとても良く撮れていて良い記念になります、有難うございました。
干潮の時にまた参加したいです。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. The sandbar is a beautiful phenomenon created by various natural conditions coming together. We hope you encounter an even more wonderful sandbar next time!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーご参加ありがとうございました。
ツアー楽しんでいただけてとっても嬉しいです。サンドバーは様々な自然条件が重なり合って織り成す美しい現象です。
今度はもっと素敵な表情のサンドバーと出会って頂けますように!!
It was a very enjoyable tour!
The sandbar was a bit different from what I imagined, with the water coming up to my waist, but it was incredibly beautiful and moving. The staff suggested practicing snorkeling, so I practiced diving with goggles. I had never swum in the ocean before and wasn't confident, so I was glad I practiced.
I was worried about snorkeling since I couldn't touch the bottom, but they provided life jackets and fins, so it was fine! I was thrilled to see colorful fish and coral reefs.
The day I participated was cloudy and sunny, so when I got out of the water, it was surprisingly cold on the boat, and it actually rained a bit, making me shiver for real. The air conditioning on the bus was also strong, so those who are sensitive to the cold should be careful!
The hamburger for lunch was delicious too! The staff were very kind and lively, making it a fun and safe experience. I'm really glad I participated! I would love to go again on a sunny day.
とても楽しいツアーでした!
サンドバーは想像していたのとちょっと違って腰のあたりまで水がきていましたが、とっても綺麗で感動しました。シュノーケリングの練習をしとくといいよ、とスタッフの方が言ってたのでゴーグルをつけてもぐる練習をしました。海で泳いだことがなくて自信がなかったので、練習しておいてよかったです。
シュノーケリングをする時は足もつかないので心配でしたが、ライフジャケットもフィンも貸してもらえるので大丈夫でした!カラフルな魚やサンゴ礁が見れて感激でした。
参加した日は曇ったり晴れたりだったので、海から上がると船の上は意外と寒く、途中ザッと雨も降って冗談ではなく本当に震えました。。バスの中も冷房がきいているので、冷え性の方は要注意です!
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです!
スタッフの皆さんもとっても優しくノリノリで、楽しく安心に過ごせました。参加して本当によかったです!また晴れた日に行ってみたいです。
On October 7th, my wife and I participated during our honeymoon. The location is inside the Royal Hawaiian Center, right in the heart of Waikiki, which allowed us to enjoy it leisurely after shopping. After checking in, we entered through the VIP entrance and enjoyed a welcome drink and dinner! The food was very good, and there were Japanese staff members, which made us feel at ease! The show featured traditional Hawaiian hula dancing and even an appearance by MJ, which captivated the audience. It was a very exciting and enjoyable time! If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would definitely like to participate!
10月7日、新婚旅行中に妻と参加させてもらいました。
場所はロイヤルハワイアンセンター内にあり、ワイキキの中心部ということで買い物終わりにゆっくりと楽しむことができました。
受付を済ませてVIP専用入口から入り、ウエルカムドリンク、夕食を楽しみました!味もとてもよかったうえ、日本人のスタッフもいますので、安心できました!!
ショーは、ハワイの伝統のフラダンスあり、MJ?笑の登場もあり、観客を魅了するショーとなっており、とても盛り上がり、楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました!!
またハワイに行く機会があれば是非参加したいと思います!
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 visit 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。
Due to the unfortunate bad weather and temperature, we couldn't see the beautiful sandbar. There's nothing we can do about that. The staff's response was good, so I can recommend it. I was able to swim close to a large sea turtle while snorkeling.
あいにくの悪天候と気温のため、キレイなサンドバーは見れませんでした。
こればかりは、仕方がありません。
スタッフのかたの対応はよかったので、オススメはできます。
シュノーケルでは大きな海がめの近くで泳げました。
What a fabulous way to begin a vacation in Oahu! The Captain and Tour Director we’re knowledgeable, generous and entertaining. They made the first day of our vacation even more special than my husband and I imagined! Thank you!!
❤️たくさんのイルカがみれました!一緒に行った子供達も大興奮です
ガイドさん達もとても優しく、楽しい方達でした!╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
船の上でのフラダンスショーもあり、ステキな旅の1ページになりました
嬉しいご感想ありがとうございます。
This tour was completely satisfying. The hotel pickup, guidance at the harbor, explanations on the boat, and guidance at the sandbar were all excellent, including the explanation about the filming locations of Jurassic World during our return! Everything was satisfying. The weather, with rain and sunshine, allowed us to see a beautiful rainbow clearly from start to finish!
The date of the visit was October 11, 2018.
I took photos of a newlywed couple, but since I don't have their address, I couldn't send them, so I'm uploading the photos here.
If you're seeing this, I hope it's helpful!
このツアーは全てが満足でした。ホテルのピックアップ、ハーバーでの誘導、船上での説明、サンドバーでの誘導などなど、帰港中にジュラシックワールドのロケ地だった説明!全てが満足でした。天候も雨が降ったり晴れたりしたお陰でスタートからエンドまではっきり見える綺麗な虹を見ることができました!
現地月日は2018年10月11日です。
新婚さんの写真を撮ってあげたのですが、アドレスもわからないので送ってあげる事が出来なかったのでここに写真をアップします。
見ておられたらご参考に❗️
when we arrived there was a traditional Hawaiian dance to greet us. we then went into the venue for appetizers, which were well presented and very tasty. when we went into the main stage area we could not believe the position of our seat. right in front of the stage. the meal was exquisite and all 4 courses were cooked to perfection. when the show started the production was amazing. it was choreographed like a Broadway show. the Elvis impersonator sounded great and really looked the part. When he went through the crowd during "Suspicious Minds" he kept laughing between lyrics, just like Elvis did in his live performances. a simple touch but excellent attention to detail. We also had a Michael Jackson performer who was also very good and entertaining. His 'Moon Walk' routine was spot on.
Overall it was an exceptional evening out that beat all our expectations
Even the regular seating had great views so it doesn't matter which meal plan you book, just book it you will not be disappointed !!!
I participated with a team of five from work. On this day, the tide was low, and there were some sandbars exposed, but the sandbar where the tour landed was underwater. Although we couldn't relax under the parasol, the water level was just below our knees, so our guide and everyone else joined in and enjoyed playing beach volleyball like kids again. The BBQ burger for lunch was delicious, and we had fun snorkeling and watching sea turtles, so overall it was great. I think it's a good tour!
By the way, the boats are divided for Japanese and foreign participants, but we intentionally chose the foreigner boat to enjoy a more local experience. There was also a Japanese guide on the same boat, so I think it made the experience even better!
職場のチーム5人で参加しました。
この日は潮が引いていてサンドバーが出ているところもありましたが、ツアーが上陸するサンドバーは水の中(^^ゞ
パラソルの下でのんびりとはいかなかったけど、ひざ下の水位だったのでガイドさんや参加の皆さんで童心にかえってビーチバレーを楽しみました。
ランチのBBQバーガーは美味しかったし、シュノーケルもウミガメウォッチングも楽しめてトータルは〇。良いツアーだと思います!
ちなみに船は日本人用と外国人用に分かれていますが、私達は敢えて外国人用の船に乗って、より現地感を楽しみました。日本人ガイドの方も同じ船にいるので、その方が楽しめると思います(^^)
This was my very first experience using Veltra, so I was a bit worried. However, I felt reassured knowing that several major Japanese travel agencies were shareholders.
I enjoyed playing volleyball on the sandbar and the light snacks/BBQ lunch were quite delicious.
全く最初のベルトラさんの利用でしたので少し心配でした。日本の大手旅行代理店の数社が株主でしたので安心でした。
サンドバー(砂洲)でバレーボールをしたり、軽食/BBQランチも結構美味しく食べられました。
The location is the central spot in Waikiki, the Royal Hawaiian. When I arrived, there was a hotel staff strike demonstration nearby. I worried about how much inconvenience it would cause for the guests staying there, and feeling down due to the noise, I headed to the venue. When the time came, I was welcomed with fresh hula and Mai Tai drinks. My gloomy mood was instantly lifted, and my excitement for the event reached its peak. I was escorted to the VIP seats by the stage, enjoyed the main dish, and was fully satisfied as the showtime began. The motivation was at its highest during the hula and Elvis shows. Sweet memories of my adolescence resurfaced, and for some reason, tears started flowing uncontrollably! At the exit, I took commemorative photos with the hula girls and Elvis. It was a very satisfying show.
場所はワイキキの中心スポット、ロイヤルハワイアン。ヘーゴッパで向かったところ、周辺ではホテルスタッフのストライキデモ。宿泊のゲストにどれ程の迷惑何だろうか心配し、余りの喧騒に憂鬱になりながら会場へ。時間になると、生フラとマイタイのウエルカムドリンクがお出迎え。憂鬱な気分は即座に払拭され、イベントへの期待感は最高潮へ、ステージサイドのVIP席へエスコートされ、メインディッシュに舌鼓を打ち、腹は満腹で迎えたショータイム。フラやエルビスのショーにモチベーションは最高潮に。思春期の甘い思い出が蘇り、何故か大粒の涙が堰を切って大洪水に! 出口ではフラガールやエルビスと記念写真。大満足のショーでした。
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 staff all seemed to get along well, and the atmosphere of the tour was very nice. It was a bit cloudy, which was disappointing, but I still had a great time. It got really cold along the way, and I lost the motivation to go into the sea, so I recommend going during a warmer time of year.
スタッフの皆さんが仲よさそうで、ツアーの雰囲気はとても良かったです。
少々曇りぎみだったのが残念でしたが、それでも楽しい時間を過ごせました。途中ですごく寒くなってしまい、海に入る気にならなくなってしまったので、海が暖かい時期に行くのをおすすめします。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Please come back and visit us again! I hope the weather will be wonderful that day.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーご参加頂きましてありがとうごいます。
ぜひ!また遊びにいらしてください!!その日はう〜んと良いお天気になりますように。
What an amazing experience, we spent all day at the PCC saw so many different cultures. We saw the church and did all sorts of activities, the only let down was the night show. It dragged for about an hour until it got fun and we saw the fireshow.
Our two families (4 adults and 3 kids under 10) would definitely recommend Captain Bobs sandbar cruise and it was a highlight of our holiday.
The team looked after us the entire time, from pick up to drop off. The entertainment, the scenic journey, the sandbar, volleyball, the turtles, the snorkelling, the bbq - gosh it was all amazing.
Thanks crew for the great time we had!
Mahalo!!!
My parents in their 60s wanted to join for the first time! There were two other groups of Japanese people as well. Once we headed out to sea, we raised the sail and picked up speed, and we got splashed by the waves a few times (when standing at the edge of the boat), but that was fun. Even if you can't speak English, you can manage just fine! The staff came over several times to check if we were enjoying ourselves and if everything was okay. My parents were the happiest, so we would like to participate again.
60代の両親が乗りたい!と初めて参加しました。ほかに二組日本人がいました。
沖に出ると帆をあげてグングンスピードをあげ波が何度かかかりました(ボートのへりに立っていると)がそれが楽しかったです。
英語が話せなくてもノリで乗り切れます!
スタッフの人も何度も楽しんでるか大丈夫か声をかけにきてくれました。
両親が一番喜んでいたのでまた参加したいと思います。
I never thought I would be able to see not only the sandbar but also sea turtles up so close! There were a few clouds on the day, but the sun came out quickly, and I was able to take some really beautiful photos! I also got my long-awaited two-shot with a sea turtle!
サンドバーだけでなくウミガメまであんな近くで見られると思いませんでした!当日は少し雲が多かったですがすぐに日差しもさしてとても綺麗な写真もとれました!念願のウミガメとの2ショットもとれました!
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. It was great to have a photo with the honu! Please come back to play in the Heavenly Ocean again for another reunion with the honu.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加ありがとうございました。
ホヌとの2ショット!!よかったですねー。ホヌとの再会にまた天国の海に遊びにいらしてくださいね。
FUN-TASTIC DAY! We would do it again. My grandson wanted to stay longer. He also wanted to go again the next day.
The weather was nice, and I was very satisfied to see sea turtles! I would like to participate again! However, the snacks were really light, so I wished there was a bit more volume.
天候も良く、ウミガメも見ることができとても満足でした!また参加したいと思います!でも、軽食は本当に軽食だったのでもう少しボリュームが欲しかったと思います。
It wasn't a sunny day, and the water level was a bit high, but the staff were cheerful and very kind, which made it enjoyable. I was able to see a lot of fish while snorkeling! Meeting a sea turtle also made for a great memory.
この日は快晴ではなく、水位も少し高かったのですが、スタッフの方が明るくてとても優しくて、楽しかったです。シュノーケリングで魚もたくさんみれました!ウミガメにも会えて良い思い出になりました。
Aloha! Encountering sea turtles. You can really feel the excitement of the chameleon. Please come and visit again. Mahalo!
アロハ!ウミガメの遭遇。カメレオン様のワクワクが伝わってきますねー。
またぜひ遊びにいらしてください。マハロ!
The shuttle service was convenient.
There are paid options, so it might be necessary to check in advance.
It was not crowded.
It can get chilly when the sun goes down, so you might need something to wear over.
送迎つきだったので、便利でした。
有料のものもあるので、事前のチェックが必要かも。
空いてました。
日が陰ると肌寒いので、羽織るものが 必要かも。
It may depend on the season, but on the day we participated, the water was very cold and there was a bit of wind, so we couldn't go snorkeling. Even while playing at the sandbar, it was just too cold (laughs), and we quickly got back on the boat. Still, the magnificent view of Hawaii from the sandbar was really wonderful. As for lunch, don't have too high expectations (laughs).
時期にもよるのでしょうが、私たちが参加した日は水がとても冷たく、風も少しあったためシュノーケルはできませんでした。
サンドバーで遊んでいてもとにかく寒くて(笑)すぐにボートにあがってきました。
それでもサンドバーから眺める壮大なハワイの景色はとても素敵でした。
ランチはあまりご期待なさらぬように。(笑)
Aloha! It was cloudy on the day you participated, wasn't it? Even then, the heavenly ocean has a very majestic atmosphere... but we definitely want to see blue skies too. Next time, I hope you can enjoy it under a blue sky!
アロハ!ご参加いただいた日は曇り空だったんですね。そんな時の天国の海はとっても荘厳な雰囲気は醸し出しますが。。。やっぱり青空もみたいですよね。
次回はぜひ!青い空のもと楽しんで頂けますように。
This was a great experience the food, view and dancing. So well worth it would do it again.
Beautiful swimming with the turtles and fish. The staff was awesome. Funny and just wanting to help with any need we had. Beautiful view of the island and Waikiki. Thank for a Great Afternoon Guys. Aloha
The staff were very kind, and it was so much fun. I was able to see turtles up close, and snorkeling allowed me to feel close to the fish. I would like to participate again. Thank you, staff!
スタッフさんたちがとても親切でとにかく楽しかったです。
亀も間近で見ることができたしシュノーケリングも魚を身近に感じられたし、また参加してみたいと思います。
スタッフさん!ありがとうございました。
Aloha!
I am truly happy to hear your words, "I had so much fun!" We look forward to the day we can meet again, along with the sea turtles. Mahalo!
アロハ!
yuu様の”楽しかった〜〜”ってお言葉本当に嬉しいです!! またお会いできる日をウミガメとともにお待ちしております。マハロ!
There is no better way to experience Hawaii, than out on its beautiful, indescribable blue waters. After doing a bit of research, I knew I wanted to go snorkeling on the west side of the island. I also snorkeled at Hanauma Bay, but there is zero comparison. Two completely different experiences. Sailing out of the harbor, on the beautiful catamaran, with the wind in your hair, onto the sparkling water, a stunning, panoramic view of the majestic mountains behind you, with three fabulous hours of yet unknown adventures ahead of you---well, what more can you ask for? Our time on this tour was great. It went by entirely too fast. But every minute was wonderful. We saw more dolphins than we could count. Had great visibility while snorkeling. Saw many different types of fish and marine life. All under the skillful supervision of the awesome crew. Also, the boat was not overly crowded, which was terrific. Plenty of room to move about and to have a good seat. The food and drinks were perfect. I just wish it was twice as long. And honestly, next time we go back, I will probably go more than once. It's simply the best way to experience the magic of Hawaii. PS. I booked through Hawaii Activities.com and I believe the company name is also Hawaii Nautical. No matter which you book it, it's completely worth it!
Every time I visit Hawaii, I always love to go Snorkeling and normally go to Hanauma Bay. This time we decided to try something different and was so glad we all went on Captain Bob's Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Snorkel Adventure & BBQ Lunch Boat Tour. I enjoyed it so much that I will schedule it again next year. "Great job!" Captain Bob and crew, see you next year.
I booked this snorkeling activity for a short duration since a full-day activity seemed tiring. We checked in at Outrigger Beach and set sail! There was only one other Japanese couple with us; the rest were from overseas. The captain gave explanations in English, so I didn't understand much (laughs), but I could get the gist through gestures, so it was okay.
We received a full set of gear, including goggles, and headed into the sea! It seems wearing a life jacket is mandatory, but those who were experienced took them off. I was able to let some air out and dive a bit, so I thoroughly enjoyed the ocean.
Along the way, a sea turtle appeared, and I was able to see it up close! It was exciting to watch it come up for air and be so close. After swimming to my heart's content, we went sailing. Some people were drinking, and it turned into a bit of a party. They even took pictures for us, and we had a great time☆
I recommend this for anyone looking to do an activity without spending too much time!
1日がかりのアクティビティは疲れてしまいそうなので、短時間でシュノーケリングができるこちらを予約しました。
アウトリガーのビーチで受付して出航です!日本人は私達と1組の夫婦のみで、あとは海外の方ばかりでした。船長が説明をしてくれますが、英語なのでほぼ分かりませんでした(笑)ジャスチャーでなんとなく分かるのでオッケーです。
ゴーグル等セットを一式もらって海へ!救命胴衣は必須のようですが、慣れている方は外していました。少し空気を抜いて潜ったりできたので、思いっきり海を満喫しました。
途中、ウミガメが現れてしっかり見ることができました!空気を吸いに上がってきたり、かなり近くで見れたのは嬉しかったです。思う存分泳いで、その後はセーリング。お酒を飲んでる方もいて、ちょっとしたパーティーになってました。写真を撮ってくれたり、楽しく過ごせました☆
時間をかけずアクティビティをしたい方はオススメです!
