Oahu
I signed up because it wasn't too early in the morning.
I was disappointed that I could only see the sea turtles for a moment.
Playing beach volleyball at the sandbar was fun.
The hamburger was delicious.
Since it was my first time snorkeling, I would have appreciated a more detailed explanation.
I wanted to know that it's easier to swim using fins rather than treading water in deeper areas, and that you should get back on the boat facing backward.
The water was about thigh-deep, but I was satisfied to have gone to the sandbar.
朝が早すぎないので申込しました。
海ガメが一瞬しか見れなかったのが残念でした。
サンドバーでのビーチバレーが楽しかったです。
ハンバーガーも美味しかったです。
シュノーケルをしたのが初めてだったので、説明は丁寧にしてもらいたかったです。
深い所では立泳ぎより足ヒレを使って泳いでた方が楽とか船に上がる時は後ろ向きからとか説明して欲しかったです。
太股くらいまで水がありましたが、サンドバーに行けて満足でした。
The explanation was very clear, and I was able to participate enjoyably. It's essential to have wet gear when the weather isn't good, so I was glad that it was provided. I was also moved by the sea turtles, pufferfish, and rays.
とてもわかりやすい説明で楽しく参加できました。天気が良くないときはウェット必須ですね、準備されていたのでよかったです。ウミガメやフグ、エイなど感動もありました。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour the other day. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed encountering various marine life in Paradise Ocean. Please come back and visit us again! We look forward to seeing you!
アロハ!先日は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。
天国の海で様々な生物との出会いを楽しんで頂けたようで良かったです。また是非遊びに来て下さいね。お待ちしてます!
The pickup was on time, the bus driving was problem-free, and the guide was very entertaining and likable. However, the weather was not great; it was overcast, and the sea water was cold, which was completely different from the blue sky I had imagined, so I was very disappointed. I wonder if it depends on the season? I think it would be helpful if you could include that information as well.
ピックアップは時間通り、バスの運転も問題なく、ガイドさんはとても面白く、好感が持て良かった。
ただ、お天気が今一で、ドンヨリしていて、海の水は冷たくて、想像していた青い空晴れ渡る空のもととは全然違うものだったので、とても残念だった。時期にもよるのかなぁ?と思いますが、その辺も書いて頂けると参考に出来ると思いました。
Two people in their 60s, two in their 30s, an 18-year-old, a 7-year-old, and a 2-year-old participated. The crew and the hamburgers on board were very delicious, which was great, but they mentioned that the sandbar area is close to the mountains and there aren't many sunny days. It was very cold. When getting off the boat to the sandbar, you have to go into the water up to about your waist. My 18-year-old eldest son and my husband had fun participating in the sandbar activities, but they did not join the snorkeling. About half of the participants did not join. Those who did were shivering. If you bring plenty of warm clothing and think about staying warm, you can enjoy it. I thought it would be the same as the sandbars in Okinawa, so I only prepared for heatstroke. It was the complete opposite.
60代2人30代2人18歳7歳2歳で参加。乗務員さんや、船上のハンバーガーはとっても美味しくて良かったですが、サンドバー付近は、山間の近くにあって、なかなか晴れる日がないとの事。とっても寒いです。船からサンドバーに降りるときは、へそ下ぐらいまで海に入らないとだめです。18歳の長男と旦那は楽しく、サンドバーバレーに参加してましたが、シュノーケリングは,不参加。半分ぐらいの方不参加でした。入った人は、がくがく震えてました。着替えなどたくさん持って防寒を考えていくと入れます。私は、沖縄のサンドバーと同じだと思っていたので、熱中症対策ばかりで。真逆でした。
This is my second time participating.
The contrast between the sky, the sea, and the surrounding scenery is beautiful.
I was able to see many sea turtles as well.
2回目の参加です。
とにかく、空と海と周囲の景色とのコントラストが綺麗です。
ウミガメとも沢山会えました。
of all my snorkelling experiences in Hawaii over the past 5 years,
I would say this was the best to date. Turtles are surrounding you
And actually come up from underneath you so you have to kick
Away so as not to invade their space. Crew was very informative and friendly.
Chose the 9 am option so as to have lunch buffet after a morning of snorkelling.
Had a great time! Really fun people and a really funny and exciting show. Had a great time and delicious food and so many exciting activities and souvenirs. Everyone there is pleasant and it's worth the deals they have online!!
I have been to a number of Luau's on Oahu and this one is by far the best, mostly due to the brilliant 'Chief' who will keep you laughing throughout the evening. The food is excellent, the Hawaiian dancing is magical, the fire dance is spectacular, the whole evening is just total enjoyment from beginning to end. A show not to be missed.
We had a bit of anxiety as adults, but we were able to enjoy ourselves without any issues! With the day pass and shuttle plan, I was worried about lunch, but for just under $10, there were hamburgers, hot dogs, and pizza. We ordered the hamburger combo, and it was delicious! I'm glad we didn't choose a plan that included lunch. We'll definitely come back when we visit Hawaii again!
大人二人にちょっと不安がありましたが全く問題なく遊べました☆
1日パスと送迎のプランでお昼が心配でしたが10$弱でハンバーガーやホットドッグ、ピザがあり私達はハンバーガーのコンボを注文。美味しい~♪昼食が付くプランにしなくて良かったと思いました(^^)
ハワイに来たらまた来ます♪
This was the most organized event I have ever been to. The staff was amazing and didn't miss a step. Honestly, with as many people they take care of and coming from all over the world, the staff was exceptional. Even the language barrier wasn't a problem. The food was excellent and the presentation was over the top. I would recommend this to anyone and will probably do this again.
We went on our honeymoon, and it became a very enjoyable memory. The captain kept the atmosphere lively throughout the shuttle bus ride, and we had a great time playing volleyball in the shallow waters and enjoying handmade hamburgers from the crew.
Snorkeling at the coral reef allowed us to swim closely with sea turtles and interact with colorful fish.
However, the weather was bad that day, and the strong winds made it quite cold, which was disappointing as we couldn't see many sea turtles.
If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to go back!
新婚旅行で行ったのですが、とても楽しい思い出になりました。
送迎バスよりキャプテンが終始盛り上げてくれ、浅瀬でのバレーボールやクルーの方の手作りハンバーガーなど、楽しいひとときを過ごさせていただきました。
珊瑚礁でのシュノーケリングは、ウミガメと間近で泳げたり、色とりどりの魚達と触れ合うことができました。
ただ、当日の天気が悪く風も強かったため、ウミガメがあまり見れず、何よりも寒かったのが残念でした…。
またハワイに行く機会があったら、是非もう一度行きたいです!
I was a bit worried because there were reviews saying the meeting place was hard to find, but it was right there as soon as I went down the east corridor of Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort towards the beach. Once we reached the point in the ocean, we put on life jackets and snorkels and went underwater. We saw many black fish, and occasionally some white and colorful fish, and I was even able to see a sea turtle come up for air. Although there were no fins, I had a great time.
After everyone caught their breath, we went sailing. The weather was nice, the wind felt good, and the view was great. Snacks and drinks were provided. My wife had a bit of a tough time with seasickness, so it might be a good idea for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some medication beforehand.
集合場所がわかりにくいという口コミがあったので少し不安でしたが、Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resortの東側の通路を海に向かっていってビーチに出たところにすぐありました。沖に出てポイントに着いたらライフジャケットとシュノーケルをつけて海中へ。たくさんの黒い魚と、ときどき白やカラフルな魚が見え、また一度ウミガメが息継ぎに上がってきたのを見ることができました。フィンはありませんでしたが、十分楽しめました。
みんなが一息ついたらセーリング。天気もよく風も気持ちよく、眺めもよかったです。スナックやドリンクが出ました。妻は船酔いで少し大変でしたので、酔いやすい人は酔い止めを飲むなどの対策をした方がよいかもしれません。
I was excited to see the morning whales and set out. It was drizzling a bit, but I boarded the ship. First, we had a morning brunch (buffet), which felt a little lacking. When we arrived along the coast of Diamond Head, I got my camera ready and waited. However, unfortunately, the boat returned. They said they would give us a free ticket to try again during the period, but I can't stay in Hawaii that long. I'll try again next year!
朝鯨がみれるとワクワクでかけました
小雨ぱらついていましたがいざ乗船
最初にモーニングランチ(バイキング)少し物足りない感じ
ダイアモンドヘッド沿岸に到着いざカメラを構え待機
でもあられず(; ;)ホロホロ船は戻りました
期間中の再挑戦無料チケットをくばりますといわれましたが
そんなにハワイにいれない
来年再度挑戦(*^o^*)
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise.
We are very sorry that you were unable to observe any whales this time.
We look forward to seeing you again next season!
Regarding your comments about the meal, I will translate them into English and forward them to the manager in charge to help improve future cruises.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.

It's a very enjoyable plan if you're with someone. However, I've heard that the sand mountain only appears 2-3 days a year. But the freshly grilled hamburgers were delicious, and it became a great memory.
連れと一緒ならとても楽しいプランです。
ただ、ほんとに砂山が出現は年に2-3日とのこと。
でもハンバーガー焼きたてでおいしいし良い思い出になりました。
In Hawaii, you might wonder about the pool, but there are attractions like slides that you can't find in Japan, and they were so much fun! I tried them about twice each, haha! I think it's great for those who love attractions!
Also, I took a 30-minute nap on a lounge chair in front of the wave pool, which felt wonderful and made me feel like I was relaxing on the beach. I believe everyone—friends, couples, and families—can enjoy it!
Additionally, the atmosphere and the color of the pool felt different from Japan, giving me a sense of being in a resort, which was very pleasant! Even though it was Golden Week, it wasn't crowded like in Japan, and the wait time was only about five minutes, so everything went smoothly.
Above all, the lifeguards were kind and greeted us with lovely smiles, making it a very comfortable experience. The warmth and smiles of the people in Hawaii are truly wonderful!
The only downside was that some attractions were not operational. I heard there are similar pools in other countries, so if I get the chance, I would definitely like to visit them!
ハワイで、プール?と思うかも知れませんが、日本にはないアトラクションのようなスライダーがあり、とても楽しかったです!だいたい、2回ずつほどチャレンジしました笑!アトラクションが好きな方にはすごくよいと思います!
また、波のプールの前にあるシートで30分ほど、お昼寝をしたのも大変気持ちよく、ビーチでゆっくりしている気分でした。
友達、カップル、家族みんな楽しめると思います!
また、雰囲気やプールの色でしょうか、日本とは違い、リゾートに来たかのような感じでとても気持ちが良かったです!
また、ゴールデンウィークでしたが、日本のように混み合っているわけではなく、並ぶ時間も5分程度と長い待ち時間がないので、スムーズで良かったです。
なにより、監視のお兄さんお姉さんも優しくとても素敵な笑顔であいさつしてくれたりととても心地よく、楽しむことができました!やっぱりハワイの方はあったかくて、笑顔が素敵ですね!
残念だったのは、いくつか動いていないアトラクションがいくつかありました。
他の国にも同じ系列?のプールがあるようでしたので、機会があれば、ぜひ行ってみたいです!
Aloha Nayumi,
Thank you for your valuable feedback. We will include it in our internal report.
Currently, on days with no congestion, we are rotating attractions and only have English signs, so we will place Japanese signs as well.
We look forward to your next visit.
アロハ Nayumi様、
貴重なご意見ありがとうございました。社内の報告看板にださせて頂きます。
只今、混雑がない日はアトラクションをローテイションさせて頂き英語のサインしかございませんので、日本語のサインをおかせて頂きます。
又のお越しをお待ち申し上げます。
Me & my mom had a blast on this dinner cruise. The staff, entertainment & food was superior. We would recommend this delightful activity to anyone coming to Waikiki. We would definitely do this again ourselves! This was a highlight & great memory of our Hawaiian vacation!
thank u so much. captain & staff. so nice & fun.
everything was good except bad weather (windy rain).
For little kids would only do it once in a lifetime. Luau was really good though
Mahalo for your feedback, Aloha oe!
The transportation was smooth, and despite the strong winds, the boat didn't sway much, which was great. However, unfortunately, we weren't able to see any whales.
送迎もスムーズで船も風が強かったにも関わらずあまり揺れることなく良かったです。ただ、残念ながらクジラを見ることが出来きませんでした。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are very sorry to hear that you were unable to see any whales this time.
Please come back to search for whales again.
All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

I was able to see dolphins up close. I had my photo taken, but there were people who had many photos for the same price and others who did not, so it would be nice if that could be improved. I thought the staff were cheerful and kind, which made it enjoyable.
イルカを近くで見ることができました。
写真を撮って頂きましたが、同じ金額で沢山写ってる人と、そうでない人といるし、他の人の写真ばかりのUSBを買っても、ちょっと困りますのでその辺は改善していただきたいと思います。
スタッフの皆さんも陽気で親切で楽しめたと思います。
I went in April, and it was cold. It feels even colder with the wind, so wearing a wetsuit makes it more enjoyable. Be careful with rash guards, as they can make you feel even colder when the wind blows. The water is clear, and there are fish and turtles, so I think girls and children would like it. If you have a waterproof camera, you can take pictures. Non-waterproof cameras are not allowed because they could get damaged.
4月に行きましたが寒いです。風があると尚更寒いのでウェット来たほうが楽しめます。ラッシュガードは風が吹くと余計寒いので注意が必要です。水が綺麗で魚や亀がいますので女の子や子供は好きと思います。
カメラは防水なら撮って貰えます。非防水は壊す危険があるとかで撮ってもらえません。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. I hope your wife had a great time, and it must have boosted your reputation as a husband! Please come back and visit us again. Mahalo!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂いてありがとうございました。
奥様がHappyになって頂けてご主人様の株も一段と上がったのでは?またぜひ遊びにいらして下さいね。マハロ!
It was my first experience in my life, and I was very impressed. The staff's explanations were also very interesting and easy to understand. I thought the beach would be exposed due to the tide, but on May 5th, it was only up to my knees, which was a bit disappointing.
生まれて初めての体験、感激しました。スタッフの説明も大変面白く、解りやすい感じでした。
潮の引き具合で、砂浜が出ていると思ってましたので、5月5日はひざ下ぐらいまでだったので少し残念でした。
Viewing Waikiki and Diamond Head from a different angle, the ever-changing colors of the ocean—everything was just the best scenery! The ride was quite bumpy, and while it was fun at first, I started to feel a bit nauseous… I think a shorter duration would be better, but I enjoyed it at a reasonable price, so it was worth it.
いつもと違う角度から見るワイキキ、ダイアモンドヘッド、どんどん変わっていく海の色、とにかく最高の景色でした!途中揺れが凄くて、初めはそれも楽しかったのですが…少し気持ちが悪くなりました…。もう少し短い時間でもいいかなと思いますが、お手頃な値段で楽しめたのでよかったです。
It was a very fulfilling tour that lasted only in the morning. The sandbar was incredibly beautiful and felt like a different world. Since we could return to Waikiki by lunchtime, we were able to make good use of our time. It's okay to get on the bus in wet clothes, but it was still cold. I wish I had changed in the restroom before getting on.
午前中のみで、とても中身の濃いツアーでした。
サンドバーはとてもキレイで別世界。
お昼にはワイキキに帰れるので時間も有効に使えます。
帰りのバスは濡れた服のままでもオッケーですがやはり寒い。乗る前にトイレで着替えたら良かったなと、思いました。
Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach are both stunning beaches.
Hotel → Shuttle bus → Shop for beach guidance and snorkeling rental → About a 5-minute walk to the beach.
The staff provides thorough explanations.
Kailua Beach
It's a beach where just lying on the sand feels great.
Coral is only found in some areas.
Since there are waves, boogie boarding is recommended.
I saw some people kite surfing.
Lanikai Beach
It's about a 10-minute walk from Kailua Beach, with a slight uphill.
You access the beach through a residential alley from the road where cars drive.
The two islands are impressive, making it a beach with a fantastic view.
The pizza for lunch is huge.
Fins can be rented for an additional fee.
カイルアビーチとラニカイビーチ、ともに絶景のビーチです。
ホテル→バスで送迎→ショップでビーチの案内・シュノーケルレンタル→ビーチまで5分くらい徒歩
スタッフの方が丁寧に説明してくれます。
カイルアビーチ
砂浜に寝転がっているだけで気持ちがいいビーチです。
珊瑚があるのは一部の場所のみです。
波があるので、ブギーボードがおすすめです。
カイトサーフィンをしている方がいました。
ラニカイビーチ
カイルアビーチから10分くらいで歩いて行けます。少し坂道あります。
車が走る道路から、住宅の路地を抜けてビーチへ。
2つの島が印象的で、眺めて最高のビーチです。
昼食のピザは巨大です。
フィンは別料金で借りられます。
I saw 3 and one came up to the surface beside me! Very cool. Unfortunately there wasn't much else to see, some fish. Stay near the guides in the water as they know where turtles hang out. Crew was outstanding! Catamaran ride was fun!
Great day on the secret beach. Although there are only a few kayaks & SUP's, the 8 of us had plenty of time on them. Beach chairs provided and we took picnic. The area to use equipment is blocked off and is a tad smaller than we would have liked. Also the area is over a reef so if you fall in the water be careful. Enjoy
All i can say is that me and my husband was thoroughly entertained. The food the service was second to none awesome show. I wouldn't hesitate to see it again.
We participated in this tour because we really wanted to see wild dolphins on our honeymoon.
The meeting time was at 5:55 AM, but around 5:20 AM, a Japanese female staff member called our hotel room for a morning call. During that call, she informed us that we needed to wear swimsuits and that if we wanted to rent a wetsuit, it would cost $5 per person, so we needed to have cash on hand.
The participants on the bus were mostly Japanese, with about 20 people in total. Inside the bus, the Japanese staff explained the precautions and how to use the snorkel, which made us feel at ease. They also recommended that those who are prone to motion sickness take medication on the bus. Motion sickness wristbands were available for sale on the bus for $20, but I didn’t buy one. By the way, I got quite seasick during the parasailing the day before, but I didn’t feel sick at all during this dolphin tour.
Finally, we boarded the boat and cruised to the point where the dolphins were located. There were four staff members on board, and they were all very enthusiastic, chatting with us in English, which created a fun atmosphere throughout. Then we finally spotted the dolphins and dove into the sea with our snorkels! We swam close to the dolphins, and there were so many swimming just below me!! Both my husband and I were thrilled to see them up close. Please make sure to bring an underwater camera. I highly recommend participating in this tour.
ハネムーンで、野生のイルカをどうしても見たくて主人と二人で参加しました。
朝5時55分の集合でしたが、5時20分頃に、ホテルの部屋まで日本人の女性のスタッフの方からモーニングコールがありました。その際に水着着用のことと、水中は寒い為、ウエットスーツをレンタルする場合には、一人$5必要な為、現金が必要な旨連絡がありました。
到着したバスの参加者はほぼ日本人で、20名くらいがいたと思います。
バスの中で、日本人スタッフの方から注意事項やシュノーケルの使い方など説明があり安心できました。また酔いやすい方は、バスの中で薬を飲むことをお勧めします。バスでは酔い止めのリストバンドも売られていましたが、$20のため、私は買いませんでした。ちなみに前日参加したパラセイリングではかなり酔ってしまったのですが、このイルカツアーは全く酔わなかったです。
いよいよ船に乗り、イルカがいるポイントまでクルーズをします。スタッフの方4名いたのですが、皆さんテンションが高く英語で色々と話しかけてくれる為、終始楽しい雰囲気でした。そしていよいよイルカを発見し、シュノーケルをつけて海にダイブします!そしてイルカの近くまでみんなで泳いでいきました。するとそこにはたくさんのイルカたちが私のすぐ下を泳いでいました!!
こんなに間近で見ることができ、主人も私も感激しています。水中カメラは絶対に持参してください。
ぜひ参加をお勧めします。
I participated with my mother during this year's Golden Week! We stayed at Hilton Hawaiian Village, and the pickup location for the shuttle was easy to find within the hotel.
The park opened at 10:30, but the bus arrived quite early, around 9:30. The air conditioning on the bus was too cold, so it might be a good idea to dress warmly even in Hawaii.
After waiting for about 40 minutes, we started going through the gates around 10:15 and headed to the lockers to store our belongings. There was a monitor with instructions in Japanese nearby, and when you made a payment, your locker number was displayed. You can open and close the locker as many times as you want, so it's a good idea to store towels and money that you won't be using.
Half of the park features thrilling slides for adults, while the other half is geared towards children's pools. We were seeking thrills and enjoyed the Island Racer and Tornado rides repeatedly. Because of this, we had plenty of time and didn't feel rushed at all.
However, I was really disappointed that the Shaka ride was closed, as it was something I was looking forward to. There seems to be a hot spa as well, but it was closed at first, and when we passed by on our way out, it was open, which was unfortunate.
As for the pizza we had for lunch, to be honest, it wasn't good... it was cold, and there was no dressing for the salad. When I asked the staff, they pointed to a spot where the only options were ketchup, mustard, and barbecue sauce. None of those went well with the lettuce or olives, and I couldn't believe it cost $9.49. I wouldn't recommend the pizza.
The weather that day was cloudy with strong winds and occasional rain, but we still managed to enjoy ourselves since we saw some sunny moments!
今年のGWの休みを利用して母と参加しました!
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに滞在し、送迎のピックアップ場所もそのホテル内とわかりやすかったです。
開園時間は10:30だったのですが大分早い9:30ころにバスが到着。バスが冷房ききすぎで寒かったのでハワイだからと言って薄着だと困るかも。
40分ほど待って、10時15分頃から順次ゲートをくぐり荷物を預けにロッカーへ向かいました。近くに日本語での案内モニターがあり、そこで入金するとロッカー番号が表示されるというシステムです。何度でも開閉可能なので使わないタオルやお金も預けるといいです◎
パーク内の半分は大人も楽しめる絶叫系スライダー、もう半分は子供向けプールというようにわかれており、スリルを求めていた私たちはひたすら半分のアイランド・レーサーやトルネードを楽しんでいました。(笑)そのため時間はたっぷり余り、ゆっくりと回ることもできたので時間も短いとは感じませんでした。
ただ、一番楽しみにしていたシャカがクローズとなっておりとっても残念でした。
ホットスパもあるみたいですが、最初のほうは閉まっており入れないと思ったら帰り際に通ったら開いており残念でした…。
昼食に食べたピザですが、はっきり言っておいしくない…冷めてるし、サラダにはドレッシングがなし。定員さんに聞くと、「あっち」と言われ見てみるとあったのはケチャップ、マスタード、バーベキューソース。レタスやオリーブにはどれも合わず、これに$9.49もかかるのか、、という感じでした。ピザはおすすめできないです。
当日の天気は曇り空で、風も強くたまに雨も降る微妙なコンディションでしたが晴れ間も見えたので十分楽しめました~
Dear Shiitan,
Thank you for your valuable feedback. I will promptly convey your comments regarding lunch to the person in charge of meals and we will consider how to improve it moving forward.
Also, please do visit us again when you come to Hawaii. We look forward to welcoming you.
しいたん様、
貴重なご意見ありがとうございました。 昼食に関してのご意見早速食事を担当しているものに伝えこれからどのように改善していくのかを検討させて頂きます。
