There was also a Hawaiian dinner, but I opted for the affordable all-you-can-eat appetizers. It included four items like Thai-style grilled chicken and meatballs, along with a dessert cake. While it didn't feel luxurious, considering the $30 difference, the sunset, night view, and hula dance were wonderful, and I thoroughly enjoyed them.
ハワイアンディナーもあったのですが、金額の安いアペタイザー食べ放題にしました。タイ風の焼き鳥、肉団子など４品とデザートのケーキで、豪華感はなかったですが３０ドルの違いがあるとかと言えば、サンセットや夜景、フラダンスなどの主役は素晴らしく、充分堪能できました。

On the day of the tour, we were blessed with beautiful weather and visited the heavenly sea for the first time. I checked the low tide times in Japan and chose the lowest tide of that week to book the tour, but unfortunately, the water was up to my knees. However, during snorkeling, I encountered a sea turtle, and the tour was a fun experience.
当日は天恋にも恵まれて天国の海に初めて行ってきました。
日本で干潮時間を調べて、その週の一番干潮の時を選んで
ツアーを申し込みましたが、あいにくひざ下まで海水がありました。
でもシュノーケリングではウミガメに対面しツアーは楽しい時間でした。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. I'm glad you got to see 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。亀さんに会えたんですね！！良かったです！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。

We had a wonderful time on the Star of Honolulu dinner cruise. Met really nice people. The Crew was a lot of fun teaching us the hula. The sunset was beautiful. The food was great. Very organized.
Before the show started, I enjoyed a welcome drink, a Mai Tai, and was treated to cut fruits and macadamia nuts before entering. We had dinner at a VIP table in front of the stage. The lobster was half, but the steak was decent. My wife and I attended together, and she wore a dress she got the day before at a shop in Waikiki, while I dressed up a bit too, filled with excitement for the dinner. The dessert and the final Kona coffee were also very delicious.
Soon, everyone who was only attending the show entered, and the show was about to begin. Elvis Presley had a great atmosphere, and Michael Jackson's dancing was wonderful, receiving applause for his moonwalk. Katy Perry was a bit unfamiliar to us in our 50s, but it was fun and lively. The Hawaiian show and fire dance were packed with entertainment, making it a fantastic show. Above all, the performers' dedication was remarkable, which I believe was a major factor in our enjoyment. After the show, everyone was waiting at the exit, casually taking photos and signing autographs, which allowed us to capture great pictures.
My wife was also at her maximum excitement, and we truly felt we had a wonderful experience. It was a luxurious and enjoyable night in Waikiki to see an entertainment show that combined the essence of Las Vegas with Hawaiian flair, all from a VIP perspective.
ショーの始まる前にウィルカムドリンクのマイタイを頂き、カットフルーツやマカダミアナッツ等でおもてなし後入場しました
。ステージの前のVIP席でのディナーを頂きました。ロブスターはハーフですが、ステーキもまずまずでした。夫婦で参加しましたが、家内は前日ワイキキのショップで入手したドレスを着て、私も少しおしゃれしてテンションを上げ期待感満載のディナ
ーでした。デザートも最後のコナコーヒーも大変美味しかったです。
その内会場には、ショーのみ参加の皆さんも入場していよいよショーの始まりです。
エルビスプレスリーも雰囲気は上々、マイケルジャクソンは踊りが素晴らしくムーンウォークに拍手喝采でした。ケイティペリ
ーは、私達50代はよく分からないのですが
、ノリノリで楽しかったです。ハワイアンシヨーやファイアーダンスなど盛りだくさんで素晴らしいエンターティメントショーでした。何より皆さんのなりきり様が半端ではなく、楽しめた大きな要因だと思います。ショーが終わっても出口で皆さん待ってくれていて、記念写真やサインに気軽に応じてくださり、いい写真が撮れました。
家内もテンションMAXで本当にいい体験が出来たと感じました。本場ラスベガスのエンターティメントショーに、ハワイアンが加味された素晴らしくも楽しいディショーをVIPで見れるなんて贅沢で楽しいワイキキの夜でした。
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 next visit Hawaii.
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。

We were picked up at the hotel at 7 AM and traveled by large bus to the pier. I was worried about the heavy rain in the mountains along the way, but fortunately, by the time we boarded the boat, the rain had stopped. It was cloudy, but the sun started to shine, which was great. As I had researched beforehand, the water was about knee-deep, and we couldn't see the sandbar. The snorkeling experience was serious, and the staff provided thorough instructions while we wore life jackets. The corals and fish were beautiful, but if the weather had been a bit better, they might have looked even more stunning. The experience is quite dependent on the weather. We opted for a morning-only tour, and that was sufficient.
朝の７時にホテルピックアップで大型バスで船着き場まで移動。途中山中では大雨でどうなることかと心配しましたが幸い船に乗る頃には雨が止んでいて曇ってはいたものの日が射してきたので良かったです。事前に調べていた通り膝下くらいまで水が浸かりサンドバーは見れなかったです。シュノーケリングは本格的でライフジャケット着用でスタッフがきっちり教えてくれます。珊瑚や魚もキレイに見えましたがもう少し天気が良かったらもっとキレイに見えたのかも。天気にかなり左右されます。午前中だけのツアーにしましたがそれで十分でした。

Nice relaxing trip on the sailboat. You can walk around the boat, or even lay down on the mat. Sunset is nice if you are in to taking pictures.
Don't go for the appetizers: meatballs, chicken wings, and mix of crackers, just okay.
Lots of alcohol if you like to drink.
loved it. a little windy and cold. would be great if there was an outdoor shower to rinse off after for non-hotel guests
Aloha,
Thank you for choosing Dolphin Quest! We are glad you had a fun time despite the windiness! We hope to have you back again, I would recommend a morning time as it is typically less windy than in the afternoon.
Mahalo from Dolphin Quest Oahu!
kids totally loved it. couldn't stop talking about it after.
Aloha,
Thank you for choosing Dolphin Quest! We are so glad to hear your children had an inspiring and fun time with us! We hope to have your family back again soon!
Mahalo from Dolphin Quest Oahu!
pilot was friendly. scenery was great. be aware some passengers might get nauseous!
Great trip, we were very lucky and saw 6 turtles up close in clear water. The crew were great and the sail was a delight! Definitely worth it!
Actually, I'm weak on boats and afraid of water, but this time I participated because of my family's wishes. However, thanks to the staff and the life vests, I was able to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind, and the boat didn't rock, so I could enjoy my cocktails deliciously. Above all, I was very satisfied to see so many sea turtles up close! They came so close that I almost bumped into one. I thought I would like to participate again on my next trip to Hawaii. Thank you for the wonderful memories!
じつは船に弱く水も怖いのですが、今回は家族の希望で参加しました。
ところが、スタッフやライフベストのおかげでシュノーケリングも安心して楽しめ、船も揺れないのでカクテルを美味しく飲めました。
何より間近で海ガメをたくさん見られたことに大満足！危うくぶつかりそうになるほどでしたよ。
次のハワイ旅行の時もまた参加したいなと思いました。最高の思い出をありがとうございました！

Perhaps because it was a set with a meal voucher and a reservation, the portion size was just right for Japanese people. It was a bit salty, but I enjoyed it deliciously. The outdoor seating was pleasant.
食事券&事前予約のセットだったからか、日本人にあったちょうど良い量で、少し味が濃かったけど美味しく頂きました。
アウトサイドの席で気持ち良かったです。

It was fully booked since I made a reservation for Friday night. I was worried if it would be too crowded. The sunset was hidden due to the clouds, but I was able to see the fireworks from the Hilton clearly.
The deck railing side was filled with people who boarded earlier, so I had to view from between them while sitting. The buffet tables are first-come, first-served, so if you board late, you won't get a good seat with a nice view. Since there is time until the fireworks, it might be a good idea to think about how to spend your time. The welcome drink was too sweet, and the alcoholic cocktails were just okay. Each person gets one lobster, so be careful not to overeat. It's a pretty standard buffet.
金曜日の夜に予約したので満席でした。こんなに乗れるのかな？と心配に。曇りでサンセットは隠れていて見られませんでしたが、ヒルトンの花火はしっかり見られました。
デッキの手すり側は先に乗船出来た人達で埋まっており、座ってだと人の隙間から見る感じ。
ビュッフェのテーブルは自由席で、遅く乗船になると眺めのいい席は座れないです。花火までは時間があるので、過ごし方を検討してみるといいかもしれません。ウェルカムドリンクは甘過ぎ、アルコールカクテルもちょっと・・・。ロブスターも一人ひとつ出るので食べ過ぎ注意。無難なビュッフェかと。

I couldn't see the sandbar on the beach, but I had a great time playing in the beautiful sea!!! I was very satisfied to see sea turtles. However, I thought I would be able to snorkel with the sea turtles, but it was just from the boat.
砂浜のサンドバーは見れなかったけど、キレイな海で遊べて最高でした！！！
海亀にも会えて大満足です。ただ海亀と一緒にシュノーケルできると思っていましたが、船の上から眺めるというものでした。

The crew was super nice and very informative. I felt very safe while sailing and snorkling. A crew member snorkles with you and helps you spot the turtles. There were lots of turtles to be seen! We were fortunate to go on a day that there were only about 10 of us, so we basically had the boat to ourselves! It was great! I mean you are snorkling with green sea turtles and sailing in Hawaii "what's not to love"?! I highly recommend Holokai Catamaran Turtle Canyon Snorkel Sail (from Waikiki Beach) / Snorkel Cruise!
Excellent bus driver he was very personable. Enjoyed the visit to the Arizona memorial very much do much history should not be forgotten
I was worried about how it would go since I had a 2-year-old with me, but we were captivated by the changing stages one after another. The service to guests was attentive, and we were able to enjoy a wonderful time.
2歳児連れだったので、どうなる事かと心配していましたが、次々と変わるステージに見入っていました。ゲストへのサービスも行き届き、楽しいひと時を過ごす事が出来ました。

We spent full day at Polynesian Cultural Center, it was great to learn different type of Polynesian islands. Our guide was Jargel, she was good, she took us to all the best shows on PCC.
Luau dinner was good, A lot of food selections to choose for.
We got 2 leis . One is made from Kui nuts and other one made from orchids.
They picked up and sent us back to Waikiki, all staffs are very friendly and helpful. This is one of very good attractions you should do when you visit the island. We had a good time there.
First of all, the staff were very kind and accommodating, but we went far away from the area where the dolphins were spinning, and there were no dolphins there. That was unexpected, so I was very disappointed. I would like to try again next time.
まず、スタッフの皆さんは親切に対応して下さいましたが、イルカがスピンしているグループの場所から遠くへ行き、そこにはイルカはいませんでした。それは予想外でしたので、非常にがっかりしました。また次回トライしたいです。

After the bus arrived, there was some time until it opened, and even after entering, the attractions gradually opened one by one, so the wait times for each were long, and it felt like the closing time came quickly.
バスが着いてからopenまで時間があり、中に入っても徐々にアトラクションがオープンしていくので、１つ１つの待ち時間も長く、閉園時間まであっというまでした。

Two years ago, I participated in a tour that included lunch. This time, I joined a morning tour, but the time spent at the sandbar was short, and I felt a bit unsatisfied. However, I was able to return to the hotel for lunch, so I could make good use of my time.
２年前にはランチ付きのツアーに参加しました。
今回は午前中のツアーに参加したのですが、サンドバーの滞在時間も短く、ちょっと物足りない感じがしてしまいました。
しかし、お昼にはホテルに戻って来られたので時間を有効に使うことができました。

We enjoyed cruising from Kailua to the area near the sandbar on a catamaran. Although we didn't land on the sandbar, we had fun snorkeling and enjoyed free drinks and a barbecue (hamburgers) on board, which I liked. The boat was chartered for the number of reservations, and this time we set off with two boats. There happened to be many Japanese people, so one boat was filled to capacity with Japanese passengers. The languages spoken were English and Japanese. I wasn't sure if there were other languages, but the tourists were definitely from various countries. Everyone became friendly, taking photos together. The contrast between the steep mountains unique to Hawaii and the emerald-colored sea of the sandbar was beautiful, and I almost forgot to look for sea turtles, but the crew was quick to point them out. It was beautiful, pleasant, and fun. The leisurely afternoon course included only the cruise and snorkeling, with no exploration of Kailua town, but I was satisfied. I participated with my mother and child, wearing a tunic and hoodie over our swimsuits, and brought a beach towel, float, and sunscreen. They provided snorkeling sets and life jackets.
カイルアからカタマランクルーザーでサンドバー付近までクルージングを楽しみます。サンドバーへは上陸しませんが、スノーケリングを楽しみ船上ではフリードリンク、バーベキュー(ハンバーガー)を食べます、私は好き。予約者が乗れる分の船がチャーターされていて、今回は2挺で出発。たまたま日本人が多かったので、1挺は日本人で満タンになりました。言語は、英語と日本語の二言語です。他言語があったかどうかはわかりませんでしたが、ツーリストはとにかく多国籍でした。写真を撮りあったりしてみんな仲良しになります。ハワイ特有の切り立つ山の景色とサンドバーのエメラルド色の海のコントラストが美しく、ウミガメ探しを忘れてしまいそうですが、クルーが目敏く教えてくれます。美しく、気持ちよく、楽しかった。午後から出発するのんびりコースはクルーズとスノーケリングのみで、カイルア街の散策はナシですが、満足しました。母と子供で参加し、水着の上にチュニックとパーカーを羽織り、バスタオルと浮き輪とサンブロックを持って出掛けました。スノーケルセットとライフジャケットは貸してくれます。

We participated as a couple in our 50s. There were few Japanese people, and the explanations were in English, so our understanding was about 10-20%. But we had fun.
However, even though there were dolphins swimming, the explanations were long, so by the time we got into the water, the dolphins were gone, and we only got to snorkel for about 30-40 minutes.
The lunch was delicious. It included round-trip transportation to the point and free drinks (including alcohol).
Since we couldn't swim with the dolphins, the cost performance was not great.
50代夫婦で参加しました。
日本人が少なく、説明は英語だったので
理解度は10～20%くらい？
でも楽しかったです。
ただ、イルカが泳いでいても説明が長かった
ので、海に入った時には、イルカもいなくなって
いて、30～40分シュノーケリングしていただけ
でした。
ランチは美味しかったです。
ポイントまでの往復、フリードリンク(アルコ
ール含む)でした。
イルカと泳げなかったので、コスパは、いまいち

For those who want to experience the sandbar, which is often featured on television, I recommend it because the time is only in the morning and the price is reasonable. There were many participants, with two buses and two boats operating.
Before heading to the sandbar, we looked for sea turtles. We were able to see about five or six, but they only come up for air briefly, making it difficult to take photos. After seeing the turtles, we went to the sandbar.
On the day we went, the water was up to our knees, and there were some complaints. It seems that the relaxing setup with chairs, as seen on TV, is quite rare. After the photo session at the sandbar (the staff takes the pictures), we went snorkeling.
We walked to the point where the sandbar suddenly gets deep, which took about 5 to 10 minutes. I got stung by a jellyfish during that time. The staff had warned us to be careful. The jellyfish were small, so it was quite difficult to spot them if you weren't paying attention.
A tip to avoid getting stung by jellyfish: don't walk at the front! I was at the front and got stung. It hurts quite a bit; it's a prickly pain, and since jellyfish tentacles are long, the pain can be quite widespread. After being stung, it turns into a small bump, and the mark lasts for a few days. For children, it might be a bit challenging as they might scratch it. Please be careful.
Since many people participate in snorkeling, the water can be murky and visibility is poor. The staff was feeding the fish with bread to attract them. After the activity, they ask for tips, but it’s not mandatory, so quite a few people didn’t give any. The staff were cheerful and had a good vibe.
テレビでもよく取り上げられるサンドバーに一度は行ってみたい人には、時間も午前中だけだし、値段も手頃なのでオススメです。
多数の参加者で、バス２台、舟２隻の運行でした。
サンドバーに行く前に海がめを探します。５～６匹は見れましたが、息継ぎする瞬間だけ頭を上げるので、写真に残すのは難しいです。カメを見た後にサンドバーに行きます。
私たちが行った日は、海水は膝上ぐらいで、クレームを言っている人も居ました。テレビで見たような、椅子を出してくつろげるような状態は、めったに無いそうです。
サンドバーで写真撮影タイム（スタッフの人が撮ってくれます）が終わったら、シュノーケリングです。
シュノーケリングはサンドバーの急に深くなるポイントまで歩きます。５～10分程度です。
私はその時にくらげに刺されました。スタッフの人も注意を促してましたが。小さいクラゲですので、よほど注意していないと見つけるのは困難です。
クラゲに刺されないコツ！ 先頭を歩かない！先頭を泳がない！私は先頭を歩いていて刺されました。
さされると、結構痛いですね。チクチクした痛みですが、クラゲの足が長いので、結構広範囲に痛いです。さされた後は小さいイボになり、数日は後が残ります。子供だと掻いてしまったり、少し大変かも知れません。お気をつけ下さい。
シュノーケリングはたくさんの人が参加するので。濁っていてよく見えません。スタッフの人がパン？を与えて魚を寄せていました。
終わったらチップをお願いされます。強要はされないので、入れない人も結構いました。
スタッフの方は明るくてよい感じでした。

Was a little disappointing to have helicopter tour cancelled but that was due to bad weather.
I wouldn't have booked this tour without the helicopter part.
The first part of morning was spent going from Macadamia shop and orchid shop which really didn't interest me.
However the second part of the day was very enjoyable - going through national park.
Overall it was an enjoyable day though it was a very long day and probably could have been an hour or two shorter
The weather was nice, but as I researched beforehand, the sandbar had water up to my waist. If you don't like what you find in your research, it's better not to participate. The snorkeling at the coral reef was great. You can't get there without a boat. On the day, there were currents, and the guide said, "Think of it as training and do your best," which was funny. I went into the sea with a water camera and holding my child. Although I was wearing a life jacket, I felt like I was going to be overwhelmed by my child clinging to me. It became a great memory. The guide was also very nice and I recommend it. I will repeat this experience.
天気は良かったですがサンドバーは事前に調べた通りで腰まで水がありました。
事前に調べて気に入らない方は参加しない方が良いですね。
サンゴ礁でのスノーケリングが良かったです。船でなければこれません。
当日は海流がありガイドさんが”特訓だと思ってがんばってください”とｗ。
水中カメラと子供を抱えて海へ。救命胴衣を着けていますが、
私にしがみつき登り上がる子供に殺されると思いましたｗ。いい思い出になりました。
ガイドさんも感じが良くおすすめです。リピートします。

I wanted to see an Elvis impersonation stage, so I attended this show. I was hoping to hear more of Elvis's well-known songs, but there were also a few Hawaiian songs, which was a bit of a letdown. However, I thought the singer who impersonated Michael Jackson had a very similar vocal quality. I believe it's quite difficult to mimic a voice with such clarity. Overall, the show was lively and enjoyable, and I lost track of time.
エルビスのものまねステージを見たくて、このショーを見てきました。エルビスの持ち歌でもっとよく知られている歌を聴きたかったのですが、ハワイアンの歌も何曲かあって、やや拍子抜けでした。しかし、マイケル・ジャクソンを真似た歌手の声質がとても似ていたように思います。透明感のある声を似せるのはとても難しいと思うからです。ショー全体としては賑やかで楽しく、時間が経つのも忘れるほどでした。

Our family took this cruise and enjoyed it immensely. The crew was very personable and friendly. The ride was just long enough - 90 mins was perfect. Only disappointing thing was they took pics of each group when we boarded but we couldn't find the person when we returned. No big thing tho we had many chances to take photos during the cruise. This is a great cruise and very well worthy the price.
I'm not sure if it was due to the timing at the end of August or the cloudy and rainy weather, but it wasn't very crowded. There were slides that we could enjoy without waiting in line, and we had a lot of fun. The soft drinks were all-you-can-drink, and I had about three cups. We didn't opt for the all-you-can-eat option, but it seemed like there were time restrictions, so I think it's better to be able to eat what you want at your own convenience. It's quite far from Waikiki, so you should definitely include transportation.
8月末という時期的なものなのか、曇りのち雨という天候のせいなのかわかりませんがそれほど混んでおりませんでした。
並ばずに滑れるスライダーもあり、けっこう楽しめました。
ソフトドリンク飲み放題で3杯くらい飲みました。
食べ放題はつけませんでしたが、時間の指定があるようだったので、自分たちの都合に合わせて好きなものを食べられる方がいいと思いました。
ワイキキからは結構遠いので送迎はつけるべきです。

It was my first time at the sandbar! Depending on the season, I think, but I couldn't stand in the middle of the ocean as I had imagined... I was submerged up to my waist, and it was quite cold. However, the sea was very beautiful, and I was able to see turtles up close, and the snacks were delicious and satisfying! I would like to try again next time! (*^ω^*)
初めてのサンドバーでした！時季にもよると思うんですが、想像していたような海の真ん中に立てることはなかったです…。腰くらいまで浸る状態で、結構寒かったです。でも、海はとっても綺麗でしたし、カメも近くで見ることができましたし、軽食も美味しく満足できました！次回再チャレンジしたいと思います(*^ω^*)
