All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

Great staff who made the trip lots of fun. Saw tons of turtles, though not a great variety of other fish - but I was there to see turtles, and so I was happy as can be!
Got a little woozy after being out on the ocean, and they immediately recognized it (without me having to say anything!) and offered me a dab of lavendar oil behind my ears/under my nose that cleared it right up.

Overall a great trip, highly recommend!

We participated as a couple.
The weather on the day was cloudy with occasional rain, which made the scenery disappointing.
The snorkeling visibility was not great due to the lack of sunlight. It was cold for late April with this weather.

The lunch was delicious, and the staff's service was very good.
A sea turtle came right up close, and we were able to observe it closely.

夫婦で参加しました。
当日は曇り～時々雨といったところで、景色は残念なものに。
シュノーケリングも太陽光が無いため視界がイマイチでした。
4月下旬で、この天気だと寒かったです。

ランチは美味しく、スタッフの対応はとても良かったです。
ウミガメがすぐそばまで来て、じっくり見れました。

We participated as a couple. We arrived at the venue a little after 6, handed our voucher to the reception, and received stickers to wear on our chests. We enjoyed a buffet while listening to Hawaiian music. All the dishes were delicious, and the chicken was especially recommended. After finishing our meal, we took a short break, met Elvis, took photos, and then entered the venue to view the costumes and other displays. The show we watched from the front row on the second floor was very enjoyable. Even though we've been to Hawaii many times, it was our first time participating, which felt like a missed opportunity. My wife loves hula, and I love Michael, so I thought we should have come earlier. After the show, we bought a commemorative photo with Elvis and later got autographs from Elvis and Michael on our pictures. If we come to Hawaii again, we will definitely participate. When we return, I will recommend it to my friends who love Hawaii.

夫婦で参加させていただきました。6時過ぎに会場に行ってバウチャーを受け付けに渡して胸に貼るシールを貰ってからハワイアンを聴きながらのブッフェを頂きました。どの料理も美味しく特にチキンはおススメです。食事を済ませて少し休憩を挟んでエルビスのお迎えと写真撮影を終えて会場に入って衣装などを観覧しました。2階の最前列で観たショーは大変楽しく何十回とハワイに来ているのに初参加とは惜しい事をしました。妻はフラ好き私はマイケル好きなのでもっと早くに来るべきだったと思いました。ショーが終わって帰りにエルビスとの記念写真を買ってその後にエルビスとマイケルから写真にサインして頂きました。又ハワイに来ましたら参加させていただきます。帰りましたらハワイ好きの友人達にもお勧めさせて貰います。

It was a very good experience tour.

I thought a regular pickup would come, but a really cool, big, and beautiful bus arrived, and everyone got excited.

There were plenty of monitors inside the bus, and the explanations were easy to understand. The female guide not only spoke Japanese but also created a great atmosphere, making it fun.

The tour was enjoyable for all the members. We got to see and swim with dolphins.

The snorkeling afterward was also very good. Since it can be cold, it's definitely better to borrow a wetsuit at the beginning.

とても良い体験ツアーでした。

普通のお迎えが来ると思っていたらとてもカッコいいデカイ、キレイなバスがきてみんなでテンション上がりました。

モニターもバス内にたくさんあり、説明がわかり易かったです。
ガイドの女性も日本語が話せるだけではなくとても空気を作れる方で楽しかったです。

ツアーは、メンバーが全て楽しかったです。
イルカも見れて泳げて

その後のシュノーケルもとてもよかった。
寒いので
最初の段階で必ずウェットは借りたほうがいいです。

On the day of the tour, it unfortunately rained, but I was able to see both sea turtles and manta rays up close! The staff were all friendly, making it a fun tour.

ツアー当日は生憎の雨模様でしたが、ウミガメ・マンタ両方を間近で見ることができました！
スタッフも気さくな方々ばかりで楽しいツアーでした。

Great snorkelling amongst turtles and gorgeous tropical fish. Terrific sailing experience also, with excellent crew onboard. Drinks and snacks available, bring small amount of cash

I participated in the tour on the morning of April 12. The tide was high, and the minimum line was at waist level, so we couldn't see the sandbar. Moreover, the weather was bad and the water temperature was low, causing those who participated in snorkeling to shiver so much that they could hardly eat. It was disappointing that we couldn't fully enjoy the sea, but it was nice that a turtle came close to the boat. The staff also entertained us, and the food was delicious.

４月１２日朝のツアーに参加しました。
潮位が高く、最低ラインは腰の位置で、サンドバーは見れませんでした。
しかも、天候が悪くて水温が低く、シュノーケリングに参加した人たちは、寒さで食事を取る手もガタガタ震えていたほどです。
十分に海を楽しむことができなくて残念でしたが、亀が船の近くまでよってきてくれたので、よかった。
スタッフも楽しませてくれたし、食事も美味しかった。

I was torn between the VIP dinner and the buffet dinner, but since there were cocktails available, I opted for this one.

The food was delicious, but I was concerned that the meal was taking a long time to arrive for the table next to me, which made it difficult to enjoy my own meal. By the time the coffee was served, the main course finally arrived, and even though it was about the people next to me, I felt relieved. I think there are many tables, and perhaps the staff didn't notice, but when waiting too long, it's better to check in early.

During the meal, guests from the general seating area entered from the back, above the VIP seats. I was a bit uncomfortable being watched by a large number of people while eating from above. (They might not have been looking, but it was a little unsettling.) I think it would be nice if there were some dividers like shades until the meal is finished. Alternatively, starting the VIP meal earlier could help...

Also, since the seats below the stage are VIP seats, it feels like you're looking up at the show. I found it hard to see certain highlights, like Michael Jackson's feet, because they were blocked by amplifiers and speakers, making it seem easier for those in general seating to see from above.

The food was tasty, and the show itself was enjoyable, but I had concerns about other aspects, so I would rate it three stars.

VIPディナーとブユッフェのディナーと悩みましたが、カクテルもあるし、、、とこちらに申し込みました。

食事は美味しかったですが、お隣の席になかなか食事が運ばれず気になって、食べにくかったです。
最後のコーヒーが出てくるころにやっとメインがきてお隣のこととはいえ、やれやれと安心しました。
多くのテーブルがあり、スタッフが気付かなかったのかなと思いますが、
あまり待たされるときは、早めに確認したほうが良いと思います。

食事の途中で、一般の席の方々がVIP席より後方の上部に入ってきます。
大勢の人たちに、上から食べているのを見られているのが私は気になりました。（見ていないかもしれませんが、ちょっと落ち着きません。）
食事が終わるまで、シェード等で区切ってもらえるといいなと思います。
もしくは、VIPの食事開始を早めるとか。。。

また、ステージから下がった席がVIP席なので、ショーも見上げる感じです。
マイケルジャクソンの足元等、見どころがアンプやスピーカーに遮られて
見えずらかったので、一般席の方が上からで見やすいように思います。

食事もおいしく、ショーそのものも楽しかったですが、そのほかの点が気になりましたので、☆☆☆です。

On the day of the event, it was cloudy with a north wind blowing, so I rented a free wetsuit. Since it was high tide, the water level in the sandbar area was up to my stomach, which was different from what I had seen in the guidebook, so I was a bit disappointed. Just as we were leaving, the weather finally improved, and at the very end, I was able to see the beautiful emerald green sea and encounter a sea turtle, so I rated it three stars.

参加当日は曇りで北風が吹いており寒かったため、無料のウェットスーツをレンタルしました。ちょうど満潮だったため、サンドバーのエリアも潮位はお腹の辺りまであり、ガイドブックで見たサンドバーとは異なっていたため、少しガッカリしました。帰り際にようやく天気が回復してきて、最後の最後でエメラルドグリーンに輝く綺麗な海が見られたのと、ウミガメに出会えたため、評価は星3つとしました。

My long-awaited first trip to Hawaii! I went in mid-April. The day before was unfortunately rainy, so I was worried about rain on the day of my trip, but fortunately, the weather held up until the end. I was able to see a pod of dolphins, sea turtles swimming along the ocean floor, and schools of small fish, which made for an incredibly moving experience in the crystal-clear waters.

As for advice for those who will be participating, I tend to handle the cold well, but if you are sensitive to cold, be sure to bring a larger towel and a jacket, as it can get chilly, especially with the wind while moving on the boat! Also, since mid-April is the end of the rainy season, I was able to take time off work when things were relatively calm to go to Hawaii. If I have the chance again, I would definitely like to go during the dry season next time.

念願の初ハワイ！
4月中旬に行きました。前日があいにく雨模様だったので、当日雨が降るのが心配でしたが、幸い天気も最後まで崩れる事なく、予定通り？イルカの群れにも海底を泳ぐウミガメにも小さい魚の群れにも会う事ができて透き通るようなきれいな海中もともなって感動の体験でした。
これから参加される方へのアドバイス？ですが、私は寒さには強い方なのですが、寒さに弱い方は、船で移動中は特に風が吹くと寒いので、大きめのタオルとジャケットなど寒さ対策は忘れないように！
あと4月中旬は雨季の終わりという事で、今回も仕事が比較的落ち着いた時にお休みをもらってハワイに行く事ができましたが、もし又機会があれば、今度は是非、乾季に行きたいと思っています。

I signed up with a light-hearted feeling, hoping that the meal would be a bit more enjoyable, and from the moment I arrived, it started with a warm welcome from the dancers, followed by the buffet time. The roast beef wasn't very good, but the other dishes were delicious in terms of flavor and everything else. After that, we moved to the show area and waited for it to start, but once it began, it was over in no time. The energy of the dancers running non-stop, along with the singers, made it a truly American show. I want to go again.

食事が少し楽しくなればいいなぐらいの軽い気持ちで、申し込んだのですが、着いた時からダンサーの歓迎から始まりブッフェタイムが始まりました。
ローストビーフはあまりよくありませんでしたが、その他のご飯は味付けからなにまでとても美味しくいただけました。
そのあとはショーのエリアに移動して、スタートを待ちましたが、始まってからはあっという間でした。
ノンストップで走り続けるダンサーの迫力から、シンガーまでアメリカらしいショーでした。
また行きたいです。

I had a reservation for the Star of Honolulu, but due to hull repairs, I was forced to cancel and quickly switched to the Majestic. However, even though it was just two docks away, I had quite a bit of trouble finding the boarding area. Because of that, I thought it might not compare well to the original cruise, but I believe the cost performance was actually better here. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, so I couldn't see the sunset, and I thought I might miss the fireworks too, but I was able to see them clearly, and they were not disappointing at all; I enjoyed them quite a bit. I thought the cocktail and light snacks were decent as well. More importantly, since I had planned to go directly to the boarding area, the outbound trip from the Kahala area would have been wasted, but thanks to VELTRA's negotiation, I was able to get a refund for one-way fare, which I was very grateful for. Because of that, my first ride back in a limousine was a fantastic experience.

スターオブホノルルを予約していたが船体補修とかでキャンセルを強いられ、急遽マジェスティックに切り換えた。処が、ふたつ先の桟橋なのに乗船場が分からず見つけるのにかなり苦労する。そんな事もあり当初のクルーズと比べてイマイチかなと思って乗船したが、コストパフォーマンスはこちらの方がよかったのではと思う。生憎曇っていてサンセットは見られず、花火もダメかなと思っていたらこれはしっかり見られて、その内容もそれ程ショボイものではなく、それなりに楽しめた。カクテル一杯と軽食もまあまあだったと思う。それより直接乗船場に行く事にしていた為、カハラ地区からの往路は無駄になるところだったのに、ベルトラさんのネゴで片道分をバックして貰えたのは大変有り難かった。お陰で、初めてのリムジンでの帰りは非常に気分が盛り上がったものであった。

Overall, the sunset cocktail cruise was excellent. The service staff was very attentive and would frequently go around the catamaran, refilling drinks and asking if you needed anything. The cruise itself did not take you very far from the pier, and stayed off the Waikiki coast, but still had an excellent view of diamond head and sunset. The appetizers were good, though not very substantial, consisting of chips, salsa, guacamole, salad, pasta salad, veggies, and rolls. Wouldn’t expect to get full from the food. The drinks were great, and basically free-flowing. Overall an excellent cocktail cruise

You will be guided to your meal right after gathering. Fresh pineapple and Mai Tai are served, and for a while, you can enjoy hula songs and dances. You go to the buffet in order at the table, but honestly, including the whole roasted pig, it wasn't very tasty. However, I think the hospitality service was very good.

After that, you enter the facility, and the show from there was more entertaining than I expected. The wonderful singing ability and high level of performance kept me completely satisfied until the end without getting bored.

集合してからすぐに食事へ案内されます。
生のパイナップルとマイタイが出てしばらくはフラの歌と踊りを楽しめます。テーブルの順番にブュッフェを取りに行くのですが、豚の丸焼きを含めこれは正直、あまり美味しくありませんでした。でも、おもてなしのサービスはとても良いと思います。
そのあと、施設に入るのですが、そこからのショーは期待していたより面白かったです。歌唱力の素晴らしさとパフォーマンスの高さでまったく飽きることなく最後まで満足しました。

It felt like experiencing a movie on the same boat as foreigners! I even got to see dolphins! However, the waves were really strong, and the boat rocked a lot, so while I enjoyed it, those who are prone to motion sickness might find it tough!

外国の方とおんなじ船で映画の気分を味わってるようでした！イルカにも会えました！
ただ波がすごく船が大きく揺れるので私は楽しかったですが酔いやすい方はきついかもしれないです！

I did some research beforehand, and I decided to go because Captain Bruce can get you close to where the turtles are.

事前に調べての参加でしたが、キャプテンブルースが一番カメがいるあたりまで近くに行けるということで決めました。

Due to a sudden change in the hull inspection, we used this option. Since it was our wedding anniversary, I was worried about how it would turn out, but this was also very lovely. The view was great as well.

船体検査で急遽変更し、こちらを利用させていただきました。結婚記念日でしたのでどうなることかと思いましたが、こちらもとても素敵でした。景色もよく見えました。

Loved the cruise.Loved the entertaintment.The food was very good.Love the beautiful sunset.

The arrangements were smooth. The pick-up and drop-off after arrival were also seamless, making it a great value and very convenient. I will definitely use this service again next time.

手配までもスムーズです。到着後もスムーズに送迎してもらえるので料金もお得で大変便利でした。次回もまた利用させて頂きます。

I wish the weather had been a bit better...
But snorkeling and sea turtle watching were both fun!

もう少しいいお天気だと良かったのですが。。。
でもシュノーケルも海ガメウォッチとも楽しかったです！

Our evening started with a Buffet Dinner that has a very good selection of meat- that includes chicken, pork, beef & catch of the day, veggies, salad, fruits, dessert & drinks. It was a satisfying dinner with fun entertainment from the greeters who also danced before the guests. The staff are so attentive to our needs.
They gave everyone enough time to enjoy the meal before heading indoor to the theater where the show is at. The seating & capacity is a good enough size for everyone to see the entire show without being left out. Plus, the performers engage the audience in their performance which impressed me and my husband a lot & made the whole show extremely fun!
The choice of music, the performers talent (singers & dancers), colorful costumes & all the cast are awesome. Truly a night to remember! We especially enjoyed the Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson impersonators & the Fire dance are the highlight of our evening.
Everyone is just so friendly. We ended the night with good pictures taken with the casts for the meet & greet. Great job to you all & keep it up! We will do it again for sure when we go back.

It was disappointing that the weather was cloudy, but the beach was emerald green and very beautiful. The optional bike rental allows you to visit Lanikai Beach and Kailua Town, providing a lot of freedom to enjoy the day without getting bored!

天気が曇りだったのは残念だけど、ビーチはエメラルドグリーンでとてもきれいでした。オプションのレンタサイクルでラニカイビーチやカイルアタウンにも行くことができるため自由度が高く1日飽きることなく楽しめます！

I was surprised to see sea turtles come right up to my feet! I was so hungry after swimming that I ended up going back for seconds because it was so delicious.

足元にまで、海亀が来てビックリ‼、ランチも泳いだ後でお腹すいていたので、おかわりしてしまうほど美味しかったです。

Overall, this trip was quite good. The staff were very nice, and they provided delicious free American-style hamburgers and hot and cold drinks. The only downside was the bad weather.

這次行程整體來說都還不錯，staff 人都很nice ,且還提供美味的免費美式漢堡及冷熱飲品。唯一美中不足的是天氣不好。

The staff warmly welcomed us and took commemorative photos. After boarding, the 3rd floor has a dinner class, while the 2nd floor offers appetizers. We were able to enjoy a buffet of light snacks (like meatballs) on the 2nd floor, where there were few passengers and the spacious interior of the ship allowed us to relax. There was live music on board that we could enjoy until we docked. The staff's service was also good. We went around the back of Diamond Head and returned, but since it was a new ship, we didn't experience any seasickness and were able to dock smoothly. The price was reasonable, and I highly recommend it.

出迎えではスタッフが丁寧に出迎え記念写真を撮ってくださいました。
乗船後３Fはディナーがあるクラスですが２Fはアペタイトです。私達は２Fで乗船客も少なくゆったりと広々とした船内で食べ放題の軽食（ミートボールなど）をたくさん食べることができました。船内では生演奏があり入港まで聞くことができました。スタッフの対応も良かったです。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏側まで行き引き返しますが、新しい船なので船酔いすることもなく寄港することができました。
値段も安くておすすめです。

Had a blast on the catamaran ride. Crew was fun ! Second time we have done it!

The day I participated was surprisingly rainy. It was also cold, but since it's nature, there's nothing you can do about it. Because of that, there were almost only Japanese tourists who had signed up for the tour. The slides were available to use as much as we wanted, but many of them were closed in the afternoon, which was disappointing. The bodyboard lesson was not really a lesson; it was more about having the wave pool to ourselves to use the bodyboards. The Shaka slide was the scariest, and I hit my backside hard. Kids ended up scraping their bottoms, so please be careful. I wasn't expecting much from the BBQ, but it was tastier than I thought. The beef was tender as well. Next time, I want to go on a sunny day.

参加した日は、びっくりするくらいの大雨の日でした。
気温も低く寒かったですが、自然のことなので仕方ない。
その為、ツアーで申し込んでいた日本人の観光客しかほぼいませんでした。
スライダー等は滑りたい放題でしたが、午後からはクローズするスライダーも多く残念。
ボディーボードレッスンは レッスンではなく、波のプールを貸切でボディーボードが出来るっていうことでした。
シャカというスライダーが一番怖かったですが、お尻をしたたか打ちました。子供はお尻がすりむけましたので、注意してください。
BBQは期待していなかったからか、思ったより美味しかった。牛肉も柔らかかったです。
今度は晴れている日に行きたい。

I participated with my elementary school child. We joined from the Marriott Hotel, and perhaps because there were only a few people on this route's bus, the temperature inside was comfortable, not too cold.

There were some hiccups, like forgetting to bring mineral water on the boat, but it was a small boat, close to the sea, and the atmosphere on board was friendly and cheerful.

I checked the low tide times in Japan before participating, so the sandbar was at a nice level, just below the knees to the ankles. It was my first time snorkeling, but I felt reassured because the staff was there to support us if we were anxious.

Since I joined the morning course, we were able to return to Waikiki in the afternoon, making good use of our time. The staff's guidance was clear and enjoyable. I think I might get hooked on snorkeling!

小学生の子供と参加しました。
マリオットホテルからの参加でしたが、こちらのルートのバスは少人数だったからなのか、バスの中の温度も寒すぎず、快適でした。
船も ミネラルウォーターの積み忘れなどのハプニングはありましたが、小さな船で、海も近くて船の中も和気あいあいな感じでした。
引き潮の時間も日本で調べてから参加したので、サンドバーはひざ下から足首の感じのいい時期でした。
初シュノーケルでしたが、不安だったらスタッフの方たちがついていてくれたので、安心できました。
午前中のコースに参加したので、午後にはワイキキに戻ってこれたので、時間も有効に使えました。
スタッフの方のガイドもわかりやすく、楽しかった。
ちょっとシュノーケルにはまりそうです。

This is my second time, and I really think it's a wonderful tour! The hamburgers eaten on the boat are the best! I want to participate again next time!

2回目ですが、本当に素晴らしいツアーだと思います！
船上で食べるハンバーガーが最高です！
次回も参加したいと思います！

I participated because it was a filming location for the movie Pirates of the Caribbean. It took about 15 minutes from the port to the mooring point. During the ride, I enjoyed some drinks and brownies. When getting off the boat, I waded in the water to walk to the point. The shallowest water level at the point was about ankle-deep. The weather wasn't perfectly clear, but it was pleasantly sunny, and I had a great time.

After that, it was snack time. It was a buffet-style meal where you could eat as much as you liked. The food was good, especially the sausages, which were delicious. After finishing the meal, it was time for snorkeling. Unfortunately, it started to rain, so I couldn't see the beautiful underwater scenery with sunlight, but I did see a sea turtle.

When we returned, we had some free time to play with standing paddles and balls. My family cut their feet on the sandbar, but they received treatment from the first aid kit. The staff were very kind, and I had a fulfilling time. I would love to participate again!

If you're looking forward to enjoying the sandbar, I think it would be better to check the tide levels in Kaneohe in advance to have a more enjoyable experience.

映画パイレーツオブカリビアンのロケ地だった事もあり参加しました。
港から15分程で係留ポイントへ。
着くまでの間に飲み物とブラウニーをいただきました。
船から降りる時は腰浸かり、歩いてポイントへ。
ポイントの1番浅い水位は足首くらい。
天候は快晴…とはいかなかったものの、程よく晴れて楽しめました。
その後は軽食タイム。
バイキング形式で好きなものを好きなだけ食べられました。
味もGOOD。特にソーセージが美味しかったです。
食事を終えるとシュノーケリングタイム。
ここで雨が降ってきてしまい、太陽が差し込む綺麗な海中は見られなかったですが、ウミガメも見られました。
戻ってきてから時間があったので、スタンディングパドルやボールで遊ぶ時間がありました。
サンドバーで家族が足を切ってしまいましたが、ファーストエイドキットで処置してもらいました。
その他にもスタッフの方に親切にしていただき、充実した時間を過ごせました。
また参加したい！

サンドバーを楽しみに行かれるなら、事前にカネオヘの潮位を調べて参加された方が楽しめるのではないかと思います。
