Oahu
A wonderful trip with great views and the sandbar is spectacular. The crew were great, and Jenner was especially great and super friendly and entertaining. Our captain was also friendly and took some great pictures of us on the boat. Highly recommended and will do again when in Honolulu.
A really great evening with a wonderful sunset and great views of Waikiki and Diamond Head. Crew were excellent and fun. Would definitely recommend and will be doing again when in Honolulu
Due to the traffic from the parade, my name wasn't called at the meeting time, which made me a bit anxious. However, everything turned out fine. Since this is also a meeting point for various tours, I think the guides should be more mindful when calling names. The cruise guide was cheerful and had interesting stories. The hamburger was surprisingly delicious! There are also restrooms, so no worries there. We visited several spots where we could see sea turtles, and I was able to see them about twice, but it was just for a moment, so I had to really focus. The sea is beautiful and shallow. When moving from the boat to the sandbar, it gets a bit deep, but you can borrow life jackets, so there’s no need to worry, even for children. They also take you to deeper spots for snorkeling. On the way back, you'll be getting on the bus while still wet, so it's better to prepare a simple change of clothes or bring extra towels. I'm glad I participated.
パレードによる渋滞のためか、集合時間になってもなかなか名前が呼ばれず、ドキドキしました。が、大丈夫でした。ただ、各種ツアーの集合場所でもあるので、ガイドの方が名前を呼ぶのは意識された方がよいかと思います。クルーズガイドの方は明るく話が面白かったです。ハンバーガーもビックリおいしかった!トイレもあり、心配ありません。ウミガメが見えるスポットを複数回ってくれるので、2回ほど見ることができました、が一瞬だったりするので、目を凝らして見ました。海はきれいで遠浅です。船からサンドバーに移動する際、少し深いですが、ライフジャケットを借りられるので、子供でも心配ありませんでした。シュノーケリングに深い場所にも連れて行ってくれます。帰りは濡れたままバスに乗るので、簡単な着替えかタオル多めに用意した方がベターです。参加してよかったです。
Don't miss the helicopter tour, its something you will never forget
I was able to see a lot of dolphins! The staff were all friendly and nice. I could see turtles while snorkeling, but not many fish.
たくさんのイルカが見れました!
スタッフの方もみんな気さくで良い方ばかりでした
シュノーケリングは亀は見れるのですが、あまり魚は見れなかったです
Took 5 members of family from 10-74 years old living in Hawaii, Australia and Oregon. Everyone had a nice time. We saw some flying fish, great views of Diamond Head and Waikiki, the staff was easy going and fun. We all wished the boat was closer to the water like some sailboats and under full sail and not motoring. All in all a good value.
This is my second time participating. There were few Japanese participants, and the explanations in English were a bit hard to understand, but it was a sailing experience that I could enjoy without any problems. This time, I didn't see any sea turtles, but we had time to anchor off Diamond Head and dive from the yacht, which was enjoyable.
2度目の参加です。
日本人の参加は少なく、英語での説明でよくわからないけれど問題無く楽しめるセーリングでした。
今回はウミガメは見られませんでしたが、ダイヤモンドヘット沖に停泊してヨットからダイビングする時間も有って楽しめました。
I had a very enjoyable day! First of all, the guide was incredibly fun! She was bright and attentive to her surroundings. On the day of the tour, instead of boarding a boat with only Japanese people, we took an international boat. As a result, it was a smaller group, which I think was great. The BBQ for lunch was also very delicious, and we were able to see many sea turtles.
とても楽しい1日を過ごせました!
まずガイドのお姉さんが最高に楽しい!明るくて周りをしっかり見てくれている方でした。
当日、日本人だけの船には乗らず、インターナショナルな船に乗船。結果、少人数になり良かったと思います。お昼のBBQもとても美味しかったし、ウミガメもたくさん見ることができました。
I was a bit anxious because the pickup time was delayed, but the bus was easy to understand. The plan also included all-you-can-drink options, so I was able to enjoy myself freely! The pool was not crowded, and I was able to ride a lot without any hassle, which was fun! At first glance, I thought it looked scary, but once I got on, it was really enjoyable!
少しピックアップの到着時間が遅れて不安になりましたが、
わかりやすいバスで
プランも飲み放題が付いていたので
自由に楽しむことが出来ました!
プールも混むことなくすんなりたくさん乗れて楽しかったです!
ぱっと見、怖いと思いましたが乗ってしまえばとても楽しかったです!
Had so much fun. My first time snorkeling. Michelle was great. Gave Great advice made me feel comfortable in the water right away. Lots of turtles.
My family enjoyed the dinner cruise. The Staff were so accommodating to change the menu to their guests preference. I learned a lot which side I should wear my flower. The entertainment is awesome, complete with the proper attire to educate the guests about the Hawaiian tradition, I will highly recommend this dinner cruise to anyone visiting Hawaii .Thanks to Emily of Veltra for helping me book the Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise.
I visited Sandbar for the first time! The weather was great, and the sea was incredibly clear and beautiful! I was also able to see turtles, which made me very satisfied! The staff were very accommodating, and I highly recommend it!
初めてサンドバーに行きました!天候にも恵まれたこともあり、海がとにかく透き通っていてとても綺麗でした!さらにカメを見ることもでき、大満足でした!スタッフの方々の対応も非常によく、かなりおすすめです!
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We are delighted to hear that you were satisfied with the tour. We all look forward to welcoming you 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。ツアーを満足していただけたようで、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。
My boyfriend and I attended a morning cruise and it was an absolutely gorgeous day to set sail. Aside from the great weather and beautiful views, Captain Clifton (and his first mate) made the cruise even more enjoyable, with tons of informative facts and joke thrown into the mix. The boat was clean, the supply of drinks varied for adults and children and the day couldn't have been spent any better.
Thanks for the ride!
You offer few options for lunch -- and then all of a sudden you are paying an extra $20 for lunch after paying a high price already for park tickets. Luau food was mediocre -- and they ran out of food and shut down food lines. Night show was great
The weather was great, and the view of Diamond Head from the boat was amazing!! I was a bit anxious about participating alone, but the staff offered drinks and I was able to chat with other Japanese tourists... I had a really enjoyable time. Also, I was very lucky to see a turtle towards the end! I would like to use this service again.
とても天気が良く、船から見るダイヤモンドヘッドは最高でした!!一人参加ということで少し不安もありましたが、スタッフさんは飲み物とか勧めてくれるし、日本人観光客とお話しすることもできたし…とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
あと終盤に亀を見ることができたのもとてもラッキーでした!
また利用したいと思います。
Great experience. Bus driver very knowledgeable of Arizona memorial. Standing on the memorial floor was very humbling. Recommend this experience to my friends and family.
I would use this company again.
We went as a family of four with our 2-year-old and 5-year-old children. We played in the kids' pool, wave pool, and lazy river, and the kids were thrilled. The time until 3 PM was just right. We rented a cabana, but there were regular chairs with umbrellas available, so I think it wasn't necessary on a weekday during the off-season. There is a service where a Japanese staff member can bring food, but it was a bit inconvenient since there were no call buttons. In our case, they arrived around 1 PM, but we had already purchased our food. It might be a good idea to arrange to meet at noon during the initial greeting. Additionally, ① There are no towels, so make sure to bring your own. ② You probably won't need the free drinks. You can bring one unopened bottle of water, which should be sufficient. ③ Small floaties for kids and arm floaties are allowed.
2歳、5歳の子と家族4人で行きました。子供用プール、波のプール、流れるプールで遊びましたが、子供たちは大喜び、時間も15時までで丁度よかったです。カバナレンタルをしましたが、パラソル付きチェアーが普通に空いていてseason offの平日は必要ないかと思いました。一応食事を日本人スタッフが買ってきてくれるサービスがありますが、呼ぶボタンなどもないので使いづらかったです。うちの場合は13時頃にきましたがもう購入済みでした。最初の挨拶の時に12時に待ち合わせなどするといいかもしれません。その他、①タオルはないので持っていきましょう ②フリードリンクはたぶんいらない。未開封の水1本持ち込み可なのでそれで充分だと思います。 ③子供用の小さい浮輪、腕に付ける浮輪は持ち込み可 でした。
We went to Hawaii for our honeymoon, and at my wife's request, we participated in a sandbar tour. Due to the weather, there was no sandy beach, and we were constantly submerged up to our waists in water, but the clear sea and the impressive view of Kualoa made us feel like we were part of nature. The staff were Japanese, and all the announcements were in Japanese. Because of that, all about 20 guests were also Japanese. In that sense, the feeling of being in Hawaii might be slightly diminished.
The tour boat was surrounded by sea turtles and fish that resembled porcupinefish, allowing us to take plenty of photos up close! We also enjoyed snorkeling and paddleboarding, which was a lot of fun.
新婚旅行でハワイに行きましたが、妻の希望でサンドバーツアーに参加しました。
天候の関係か、砂浜はなく常に腰くらいまで水に浸かっている感じでしたが
澄んだ海や遠くに見えるクアロアが迫力満点で大自然の一部になっているような感覚でした。
スタッフさんは日本人の方で常に案内は日本語。それもあってか20名ほどのお客さんは
すべて日本人でした。そういう意味ではハワイに来た感覚は少し薄れるかもしれません。
ツアーの船に懐いているウミガメとハリセンボン?のような魚が周回してくれるので
近くで写真もたくさん撮れました!
シュノーケリングやパドルボートも遊べるのでとても楽しかったです。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We are very happy to have been able to help create wonderful memories for your honeymoon. We 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。新婚旅行の素敵な思い出作りをお手伝いできたこと、とても嬉しく思います。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 made a reservation because I wanted to see an American show in Hawaii for the first time. First, I received a welcome drink and relaxed for a while before moving to the front row on the first floor to enjoy dinner. For dinner, I savored delicious American food, including steak. After dinner, I watched the show from the VIP seats, which allowed me to see the powerful hula and fire dances up close. The fire dance, in particular, was more impressive than I had imagined and created an exciting atmosphere. I had a great experience on my first trip to Hawaii.
初ハワイでアメリカンなショーを見たいと思い予約しました。
まずはじめにウェルカムドリンクを受け取りゆっくり過ごした後に、ステージ正面の1階席に移動して夕食をいただきました。夕食ではステーキなどを美味しくいただきアメリカンな食事を堪能しました。
夕食後はショーを見ましたが、VIP席でしたので間近で迫力あるフラダンスやファイヤーダンスを見ることができました。
特にファイヤーダンスは想像以上に迫力のあるものでとても盛り上がりました。
初めてのハワイで良い経験ができました。
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 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。
There are various types of water slides, and since we went on a weekday, we were able to ride them multiple times! I thought the time might be short, but by the end, I was a little bored, and it was just the right time for the bus. I recommend eating lunch early as it gets crowded.
ウォータースライダーは様々な種類があり、また私たちが行った日は平日だったので何回も乗ることができました!時間が短いかなと思いましたが、最後の方は少し飽きが出てきたぐらいでバスの時間だったので、ちょうど良かったかなと思います。昼ご飯は混むので早めに食べるのをお勧めします。
Love the crew! They made it so much fun! Thank you so much for this memorable experience! We cannot wait to come back next year!!!
The guide also took photos and really made it fun! The only disappointing thing was that since it was advertised as a barbecue, I was expecting a lot of meat and vegetables, but what came out were hamburgers. >_<
ガイドさんも写真を撮ってくれたら盛り上げてくれたりとっても楽しかったです!!
ただ1つ残念だったのは、バーベキューと書いていたので沢山のお肉や野菜を期待していたのですが出て来たのはハンバーガーでした>_<
On the day of the tour, the water level was up to my thighs even in shallow areas. However, the staff's hospitality and the luxurious meals showed various considerations for Japanese guests. After boarding, we were served drinks and donuts, and there was an all-you-can-eat lunch during the tour, which was satisfying.
It seems there are many similar tours to the same location, but I'm glad I chose this one even though it was a bit more expensive.
The bus driver for the round trip didn't seem to speak Japanese. On the way there, he explained the overall flow and the consent form in English, but I couldn't catch it well. There was consideration to ensure the air conditioning in the vehicle wasn't too cold, which made it feel a bit hot instead.
It's a pity that I couldn't see any turtles. There's nothing that can be done about that. I would like to participate again.
当日は浅い場所でも太ももくらいまで水位がありました。
しかしスタッフのホスピタリティや、食事の豪華さなど、日本人向けに色々な配慮がありました。
乗船後にドリンクとドーナツ。ツアー途中にも食べ放題のランチと満足です。
同じ場所に行く似たツアーは、他にも沢山あるようですが、多少高くてもこちらを選んで良かったなと思ってます。
往復のバスの運転手さんは日本語が出来ない方のようでした。往路で英語で全体の流れと承諾書記入の説明をされましたが、よく聞き取れませんでした。車内の冷房が冷えすぎないようにという配慮があり、逆に暑いくらいでした。
亀が見られなかったのが残念です。こればかりは仕方ないですね。また参加してみたいです。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Our company places great emphasis on hospitality and dining, so we are honored that you felt that during your experience. We sincerely 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。ツアーを楽しんでいただけたようで嬉しく思います。弊社は、ホスピタリティーと食事に力を入れておりますので、それを感じ取っていただけたこと、光栄に思いました。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 read reviews and was prepared to wait in long lines for the slides, but perhaps because it was a weekday, it was not crowded at all. There were only a few groups in line, and we enjoyed the slides from morning until closing. Even at lunchtime, there were only a few people in line, so we were able to buy our food smoothly. I am very satisfied.
口コミを見ると、スライダーが行列でたくさん待つと覚悟していましたが、平日だからか空いていて、数組しか並んでいなく、朝から終わりまでひたすらスライダーで楽しみました。お昼も数名しか並んでおらず、スムーズに買えました。大満足です。
The event was well organized starting with proof of ticket, to complimentary drink, I can not comment on the appetizers, because we were a little late arriving so we missed them. The meal, which consisted of salmon, steak and potato, was disappointing because it was served cold, but the taste was lovely. Also, we were not impressed with the uniform table arrangements, it would have been better in groups.
Actual show was very good, Elvis looked like a young Elvis Presley, he had a good voice, and stage presence, good with the audience participation. My personal favourite was Michael Jackson, who reminded us of a younger Michael Jackson before all his cosmetic surgery. He had all the right dance moves, especially Billie Jean and the moon walk. Katy Perry was believable, strong vocals, she appeals to a younger audience, and the props she used had a great effect. Costumes for all three artists were very good. The fire knife dancer was amazing, I held my breath in parts he made a dangerous act look easy. All the background dancers,proved themselves worthy with an excellent display of hula dancing.... amazing! The band worked well with each individual artist and the drummer was amazing. Back up singers went through many costume changes with speed and professionalism and set changes ie: bubble and surfboard sections added to the overall enjoyment of the show. The inclusion of Don Ho and the ukulele was a nice salute to the Hawaiian culture,
The waiters and waitresses worked diligently throughout, and cleared the tables efficiently, and were attentive to diners needs. Another nice touch was the fact that there was two celebrations, a Birthday and honeymoon was announced, and we all got to share in the celebration. The screens at either side of the stage was a novel idea and added to the enjoyment of the show. All the artists were very accommodating after the show and graciously took time with people from the audience that wanted photographs taken with them or chat.
We took our 10-month-old baby along for the adventure. They provided life jackets for babies, which made us feel safe while boarding. I thought we could sit the baby on the sand, but unfortunately, the water depth at the sandbar was about 120 cm, so we ended up putting the baby in a float. I guess that's just luck at that moment...
The sea turtle watching was great; we were able to see many sea turtles, which was satisfying. The guide was energetic and very kind in taking care of the baby, which we really appreciated.
0歳10ヶ月の赤ちゃん連れで挑みました。赤ちゃん用のライフジャケットも用意されており、安心して乗船できました。ベビーを砂に座らせることができるのではないかと思っていたのですが、残念ながら、サンドバーの水深が120cmくらいあり、浮き輪に入れて浮かべる感じになりました。こればかりはその時の運ですね・・。
ウミガメウォッチングはたくさんのウミガメを見ることができて、満足です。ガイドのお姉さんが元気でベビーに対するケアも親切にしてくださって、ありがたかったです。
The sand at Blue was very beautiful, and it was a great experience. I was able to see sea turtles as well. Although it was advertised as a BBQ, they actually served hamburgers. However, they were delicious, so it was fine.
サンドブルーがとてもきれいでいい体験になりました。ウミガメもしっかり見れました。BBQとあるけど実際はハンバーガーの提供。でも美味しかったのでよいです。
You haven't seen Hawaii until you visit the Polynesian Cultural Center. This place is so rich in history, culture, great food and entertainment that it will blow your mind.
If you want a fantastic time with a great crew, Captain Ryan, Kevin and Zak, and swimming with sea turtles, go with Holokai! A great bargain for a GREAT experience! We'll be back!!
It was a beautiful trip! Captain Bob's group is phenomenal! Kanehone bay sandbar is spectacular: it is a sandy "language" in the middle of the sea, and although it is true that there is only sand, it is amazing the excitement of swimming, playing volleyball and snorkeling! Great BBQ. Thanks for everything.
