Oahu
It's a popular tour. You arrive at the port, which is about an hour away by bus from Waikiki. Everyone was Japanese... especially the older ladies, who were quite noisy and sat in other people's seats without asking, and used beach towels without permission, which was the worst.
Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, so we couldn't see the beautiful ocean. The sandbar was shallow, about knee-deep, and there were no fish swimming around. While you can indeed see sea turtles, it's only from the boat.
At the snorkeling point, there are fish, but not many. It felt like there were few beautiful fish as well...
Overall, it was neither good nor bad, but considering the cost, it was a bit disappointing.
人気のツアーです。ワイキキからバスで一時間くらいで出港する港に到着します。全員が日本人でした・・・特におばさん達が五月蝿くて勝ってに人の席などに座ったり、バスタオルをかってに使ったり最悪でした。
それにあいにくの曇り空でキレイな海は見られませんでした。サンドバーは膝下くらいの浅瀬で何の魚も泳いでいません。確かにウミガメに会えますが船の上から眺めるだけです。
シュノーケリングポイントには、魚はいますが少ないですね。キレイな魚も少ない気がしました・・・
全体的にみると可も不可もありませんが、コストの割にはいまいちでした。
Very smooth ride, we had a blast! Would do it again
The hotel pick-up was at 6:00, so I rubbed my sleepy eyes and headed to the meeting point. They asked about the hotel location in advance, so they came close to the hotel.
The staff were very kind and high-energy! I was worried about feeling lonely since I was participating alone, but they made an effort to include me, so I didn't feel lonely at all. By the way, there were two other solo participants besides me.
As soon as we set sail, we saw a whale. However, it took a while for the dolphins to appear. Finally, we spotted them and were able to see them up close three times. Since it’s the birthing season, there were baby dolphins too.
During snorkeling, I was able to see turtles, various beautiful fish, and even rays.
On the way back, we saw two whales very close to us again.
It was full of experiences that you can't have in Japan, and I can't wait to brag about it to my family and friends when I get back.
This is definitely a tour you should join!!
Thank you so much to the crew!
ホテルには6:00のピックアップだったので、眠たい目をこすって集合場所へ。事前にホテルの場所を聞いてくれるのでホテルの近くまで来てくださいました。
スタッフのみなさんがとても親切でハイテンション!!私は一人参加だったのでさみしいかなって心配だったんですけど、輪に入れてくれようと気遣ってくださったので全然寂しくありませんでした。ちなみに一人参加の方は私以外に2人いらっしゃいました。
いざ出航してすぐにクジラがいました。だけどなかなかイルカは現れてくれません。やっと見つけて飛び込むこと3回とても近くにイルカを見ることができました。今は出産シーズンということで赤ちゃんのイルカもいました。
シュノーケリングではカメをみることができたし、いろんなきれいなさかな、そしてエイもみました。
帰りにはまたクジラがすごく近くに2頭も。
日本では経験できないことばっかりで、帰ったら家族や友達に自慢しちゃいます。
絶対参加してほしいツアーです!!
クルーのみなさん本当にありがとう
Unfortunately, I was not satisfied with this tour. Even though they said we would see sea turtles, we only saw a turtle briefly poke its head out from the boat, so we couldn't take any photos. The cruise was just a short trip around the bay. The meals were simple. The staff also left an impression of being rough around the edges. I thought $60 was too expensive for this experience.
残念ながら今回のツアーは満足できませんでした。
ウミガメに会えると言っても、船の上からちょこっと顔を出した亀をみるだけなので、写真にもとれず。
クルーズと言っても、湾の周りをちょろっとまわる程度。
食事も簡素。
スタッフもガラの悪い人たちとの印象。
これで60ドルは高すぎると思いました。
This was my first time going to Hawaii with my husband, and this time we booked activities online. The weather was nice on the day, but it was a bit chilly, and I wondered how it would go. However, the enthusiasm of the staff and the other participants made me forget the cold! The staff were very warm and friendly, and I was able to spend the whole time with a smile.
We got to see dolphins swimming, and we even encountered a whale! I had given up hope since it was still early in the season, so it was a surprise. I was so excited! It must be due to everyone's good deeds. The hamburgers for lunch were also really delicious, and the dance time was fun!
Thank you so much, Captain Ken, Avi, Kaina, and Kekoa! I would love to participate again next time with my whole family. It's snowing in Kobe. I miss the days spent in Hawaii! Staff, please take care of yourselves and give us another wonderful experience next time!
主人とハワイに行くのは初めてで 今回はネットを利用してアクてィビティーを予約させていただきました。
当日は天気はよいものの肌寒くて どうなる事かと思いましたが、スタッフの皆さんや 参加されてる皆さんの熱気で 寒さも忘れるほどでした!!
スタッフの皆さんとても暖かくてフレンドリーで 本当に四六時中 笑顔で過ごせました☆☆
イルカが泳いでいるのも見れて、なんとクジラにも遭遇!!!!
まだ時期的に早いとあきらめていたのに ビックリ。
すごく興奮しました!!
皆さんの日頃の行いが良いせいですね♪♪
お昼のハンバーガーもすごく美味しくて ダンスタイムも楽しかったです!!
キャプテン、ケンさん、アヴィちゃん、カイナさん、ケコアさん 本当にありがとうございました☆☆
また次回は家族沢山で 参加させていただきたいです。
神戸は雪です。
ハワイで過ごした日々が懐かしい!!
スタッフの皆さん、お体に気をつけて また私たちに素晴らしい体験をさせて下さいね☆☆
My first trip to Hawaii! After doing some research, I decided to go to Wet 'n' Wild.
Since I wasn't familiar with the area and it seemed difficult to drive a rental car, I joined a plan with transportation included.
I read in reviews that it can be cold on the bus, so I made sure to wear a hoodie. On the morning of the trip, there were various tour buses parked in front of the hotel, which made me a bit anxious about boarding, but it was easy to identify our bus as it was wrapped with Wet 'n' Wild branding.
When we arrived, there weren't many people aside from the passengers on our bus. It might have been because it was a weekday on November 16.
After arriving, we waited for a while until the park opened and then entered. There was a Japanese staff member at the entrance, which made it easy to understand the process. It seemed that bringing in food and drinks was not allowed at all.
First, we lined up to use the lockers. There are small and large lockers, but since we combined our bags for two people, we rented a large one. (Initially, I rented a small one, but it was too small, so I paid the difference and switched to a large one.)
Then, after changing, we headed straight to the slide we were looking forward to! The first one we tried was the Island Racer, but when we slid down and got wet... it was cold!!! The weather that day was cloudy. Without sunlight, the wind felt chilly, and getting wet made it especially cold.
However, since we had come all this way, we decided to enjoy all the slides and took a break for a meal. Since we were just a bit hungry, we ordered garlic fries instead of something like a hamburger. But... they were huge. The portion sizes were unlike anything in Japan, and we ended up feeling full just from that. (In the end, it was quite economical.)
After our meal, the weather still hadn't improved, so we changed about an hour before the bus departure time and focused on taking commemorative photos (laughs).
I thought that if it had been a warmer day, we might have enjoyed it even more. However, I believe every slide was thrilling and worth experiencing at least once. The facilities were clean, and it felt nice to walk barefoot without any unpleasantness. Occasionally, we could see beautiful colored flowers scattered around, which added to the Hawaiian vibe, so overall, it was a great experience.
初ハワイ!ということで、いろいろ調べて、ウエット&ワイルドへ。
土地勘もなく、レンタカーでは難しそうだったので、送迎付きのプランで参加しました。
こちらのレビューを見てバスの中は寒いとのことだったのでしっかりパーカーを着ていきました。
また、当日の朝は、いろんなツアーのバスがホテル前に止まっていたのでちゃんと乗り込めるか不安でしたが、バスはウエットアンドワイルドのラッピングバスだったのでわかりやすかったです。
到着してみると私たちの乗ったバスの乗客以外にはあまり人はいませんでした。11/16で平日だったからかもしれません。
到着後は開園時間までしばらく待ち、入場。
入場の際も、日本人スタッフの方がいてわかりやすかったです。※飲食類は一切持ち込み不可のようでした。
まず、ロッカーを使用するために並びます。
ロッカーは小と大がありますが、私たちは二人の荷物をまとめてきたので大を借りました。(実は初めに小を借りたのですが、小さすぎたため差額を払い、大に変えてもらいました)
そして、着替えていざ、お目当てのスライダーへ!
一つ目は、アイランド・レーサーというスライダーへ行ったのですが、滑り落ちて水に濡れると、、、寒い!!!
この日の天候は曇り。太陽の光がないと風が冷たく水に濡れると特に寒かったのです。
しかし、せっかく来たのでスライダーは一通り楽しみ、食事休憩をとることにしました。
食事といっても小腹がすいていた程度なので、ハンバーガーなどではなくガーリックポテトを頼みました。ですが・・・これもまた大きい。日本にはない規格外のサイズでわたしたちはこれだけでおなかいっぱいになりました。(結果すごく安上がり)
結局食事の後も天気は回復せず寒かったのでバスの集合時間1時間ほど前には着替えて、記念写真を撮ることに専念しました(笑)
きっともっと暖かい日だったらもっと楽しめたのかな?と思いましたが、どのスライダーもとてもスリリングで一度体験する価値はあると思います。
施設もきれいで裸足で歩いていても嫌な感じはなく、時々落ちているきれいな色の花にもハワイを感じれて総合的にはよかったです。
I participated with my mother and sister. Since it was their first time in Hawaii, I thought my sister would want to go snorkeling and my mother would enjoy the beautiful scenery, so we joined this tour. We were picked up at the Ambassador Hotel and transferred to a large bus at the Sheraton Hotel to set off! The bus was freezing cold, and my sister, who was wearing short sleeves, was feeling chilly. We arrived at the port on time. The waves were calm, and thankfully, there was no seasickness, thanks to the fun staff, and we quickly reached the turtle watching point! We saw sea turtles, but just for a moment! Their heads popped up briefly. We saw a few, but I think it would be difficult to take pictures. My mother, who expected to see the turtles up close, was a bit disappointed. Next, we went to the sandbar! We had 40 minutes there. First, we took photos! It felt very free, as everyone could do their own thing. The staff took pictures, so couples and groups could get photos together. I thought about wearing clothes, but since the water was up to my waist, I went in my swimsuit. Standing in the middle of the ocean was truly magical! Next was snorkeling. We swam along a rope to avoid disturbing the current. I think beginners should wear life jackets. They only explained how to breathe, and there was no actual practice. My sister, feeling confident since it was her second time, struggled to breathe and almost drowned, which made my mother and me burst out laughing! Snorkeling was really enjoyable, and we saw lots of small fish. I had so much fun that I wanted to do it more. On the way back, we filled our stomachs with sandwiches and warm tea, laughed at Yukiko's stories, and arrived at the port. On the bus, I fell into a deep sleep, probably from waking up early and swimming. It was a great tour that ended on time in the morning, allowing us to use our time meaningfully. However, there were really a lot of newlywed couples! If you want to snorkel a lot, a full-day tour might be better. The bus driver on the way back was a native speaker with excellent pronunciation and was somehow very high-energy! We laughed again! On the return bus, we had to raise our hands to indicate where to get off. I think the Sheraton will stop properly, but we almost missed the Ambassador stop because of the excellent pronunciation! Since we got back on the bus wet, I recommend bringing a long-sleeve cover-up and a bath towel. This tour was well-organized, and we had a meaningful time; it was truly enjoyable. It became a wonderful memory.
母と姉と3人で参加しました。母と姉は初のハワイだったのでシュノーケルがしたい姉、母には綺麗な景色を見てもらいたいと思いこちらに参加しました。アンバサダーホテルでピックアップしてもらい、シェラトンホテルで大型バスに乗り換えて出発!バスは冷房ガンガンで半袖の姉は寒がってました(^^;時間通りに港に到着。波も穏やかで心配していた船酔いもなく、楽しいスタッフのおかげであっという間にタートルウォチングポイントへ!!ウミガメは見れたけど…一瞬!顔がピョコっと出る程度。何匹かみれたけど写真に撮るのは難しいと思います(-_-;)ウミガメがガッツリ見れると思っていた母はちょっと残念がってました(^-^;次にサンドバーへ!!滞在時間は40分。まず写真撮影~♪おのおので自由にという感じです。スタッフが撮ってくれるのでカップルやグループでもみんなで写った写真が撮れます。洋服を着ていこうと思いましたが、水が腰ぐらいまであったので水着で行きました。海のど真ん中に立てるっていうのはとにかく神秘的!次にシュノーケル。海流を乱さないためにロープに沿って泳ぎます。初めての方は救命着を着た方がいいと思います。呼吸の仕方などは説明のみで実際に練習はなしです。姉は「二度目だから~♪」と調子に乗って上手く呼吸ができず溺れかけていました。これに母と私は爆笑!シュノーケルは本当に気持ちよくて、小さな魚がいっぱい見れました。楽しかったのでもっとしたかったです。帰りの船でサンドウィッチと暖かい紅茶でお腹を満たし、ユキコさんの話で爆笑し、港に到着。バスでは早起き&泳いだ疲れか爆睡でした。時間通り午前中のうちに終わるツアーで時間を有意義に使えるツアーで本当に良かったです。ただ、ほんっっとに新婚カップルばっかりでした(^_^;)シュノーケルをたくさんしたい方は1日ツアーの方がいいかもしれません。帰りのバスの運転手はまぢのネイティブで発音がめっちゃ良い英語&なぜかハイテンション!これにまた爆笑!帰りのバスは降りる所が挙手制で、シェラトンはちゃんと停まると思いますが、アンバサダーは危うく乗り過ごすところでした。なにせ発音がめっちゃ良いので(笑)帰りは濡れたままバスに乗るので、長袖の羽織りとバスタオルは持参した方がいいと思います。こちらのツアーは段取りもよく有意義な時間を過ごせ、本当に楽しかったです。いい思い出になりました。ワイ
Sandbar is a place I always wanted to visit. I was aware that the height of the water varies depending on the season and time. When I actually went, the water was about knee to waist deep. Even so, it was incredibly beautiful and felt great.
The staff were kind, and I had a lot of fun. The burgers were delicious too.
Playing beach volleyball while being submerged up to my waist was quite tough, but I was able to enjoy playing with other guests I met for the first time.
Also, if you're going during this season (winter), it can get cold when the wind blows over the water, so it's definitely a good idea to bring clothes to wear over your swimsuit and a large beach towel.
サンドバーは、一度は行ってみたかった場所。
時期や時間によって、海面の高さが違うのは承知の上。
実際に行った時は、膝上から腰ぐらいの深さだった。
それでも、実に美しくって、気持ちよかった。
スタッフの皆さんは、親切で、とっても楽しめました。
バーガーも美味しかったなぁ。
腰ぐらいまで浸かってのビーチバレーはさすがにキツかったけど、初対面の他のお客さんとも、楽しく遊べました。
あと、この時期(冬)に行くのなら、海上で風が吹くと寒いので、水着の上から着る服や、大きめのビーチ・タオルは必ず、持って行った方が良いですよ。
I signed up for the luau. At first, I made a reservation without a meal, but I reconsidered and it turned out to be a great decision. The buffet was plentiful and delicious, but the welcome drink seemed to be a Blue Hawaii style with zero alcohol. During the meal, a young couple played the ukulele and performed hula, and I felt their sincerity and dedication. They were not overly pushy, which was very refreshing.
As for the impersonation show members, there were two Elvis impersonators (one for the first half and one for the second half), as well as Lady Gaga, Elton John, and Michael Jackson. I was impressed by how well they researched and practiced their performances, showing a strong professional spirit and dedication to their work.
At the end of the show, we were able to take commemorative photos together and get autographs. Some people missed out on getting autographs, but a manager-like person in a black suit and glasses quickly went to the dressing room and brought back autographs for everyone, which made me very happy. I didn’t catch their name, but I am grateful. It was so much fun!
ルアウつきで申し込みました。最初、食事なしで予約し、考え直して当たりでした。BUFFET式で、種類も多く、おいしかったですが、ウエルカムドリンクが、ブルーハワイ風でアルコール分はゼロだったような... 食事中、ウクレレで曲をかなで、フラを披露してくれた、若いふたりが一生懸命で、誠実さを感じました。客ずれしてなくてとても好感を持てました。 ものまねショーのメンバーでは、プレスリー(二人いて、前半、後半)、ガガ、エルトン・ジョン、マイケル・ジャクソン、全員よく本人達を研究し、練習を重ねプロ意識を持ち仕事してるな、頑張ってるな、と感心しました。 ショー終了時、記念写真を一緒にとれましたし、サインももらえ、もらいそこねた人もいたのですが、黒いスーツで、眼鏡をかけた、マネージャーらしき人が機転をきかせて楽屋まで行き、貰ってきてくれ、全員分のサインがそろい、とても嬉しかったです。名まえはわかりませんでしたが、感謝してます。 すごく楽しかったです!
Thank you very much for visiting the Legends in Concert Waikiki. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the show and the meal. We also appreciate your valuable feedback. Our Legends show is designed to allow you to enjoy the atmosphere of Hawaii as well.
The tribute artist show staff are dedicated professionals who practice daily to ensure that our guests have a great time. We hope you also enjoyed the hula and Polynesian dances.
Please come again! Next time, you might enjoy a different artist, and there will be more signatures available.
We look forward to welcoming you back.

予約課
The staff were all very cheerful, and I had a great time on the boat!
I saw a lot of dolphins, and there was even a sea turtle right next to me (laughs). The taro burger after swimming was also really delicious!!
I'm very satisfied!
とにかくスタッフの方がみんなノリが良くて、船の上がすごく楽しかったです♪
イルカもたくさん見れて、ウミガメなんてすぐ隣にいました(笑)泳ぎ終わった後の、タロイモバーガーもすごく美味しかったです!!
満足です(^O^)
Did not like the Luau food at all! Very thankful that they had great ice cream at the concession before the show
I participated because I wanted to see the sandbar with my own eyes. What I had imagined was being able to walk on the sandbar. However, there was water up to my knees, which was a bit disappointing. (The sandbars you often see are really only visible on limited days, right...?) However, the staff were very enjoyable, and the content was fulfilling, so I was very satisfied.
サンドバーをこの目で見たくて、参加しました。
私が想像してたのは、サンドバーの上を歩けることでした。
でも、ひざ下ぐらいまでの水がありちょっと残念でした。(よく見るサンドバーは、本当に見れる日が限られてるから感・・・?)
しかし、スタッフの方もとても楽しい方々で、内容も充実していてとても満足です。
After seeing the dolphins, while moving to a point where we could see sea turtles, we were stopped in the water due to engine trouble. We returned to port safely on the one boat that was functioning. The hula dance lesson, the staff's planned dance on the boat, and the BBQ lunch (which had been cooked on the boat but was cold) were held at a park instead.
It seemed to be an unexpected trouble, but the staff were smiling, kind, and fun, which made me forget that we hardly got to do any snorkeling or experiences like kayak surfing or paddle surfing.
However, what was disappointing was the company's response. Despite the schedule changes due to the boat trouble, the apology was simply a discount on the DVD (which could be purchased by those who wanted it) from 8,000 yen to 3,000 yen. At that moment, everyone was tired from seasickness and agreed to it, but considering that some might not want to purchase it, I found it strange.
It was truly disappointing, especially since all the staff were great. Among the group, I was the only one participating for the second time, and knowing how much fun I had the first time made me feel sorry for my friends who joined me this time. Even though it was an unexpected trouble, I believe such situations could happen again in the future, and I hope they will consider a proper response.
I appreciate the participants and the staff for their efforts. Thank you very much.
イルカを見たあとに、ウミガメのみれるポイントに移動中、
エンジンのトラブルで、海の上で足止め、
二つのうち一つ無事なほうで、帰港しました。
フラダンスレッスン、船上で予定していたスタッフのダンス、BBQランチ(船で焼かれたものを持ってきてあり、冷えてました)は公園で行われました。
予想外のトラブルだったようですが、スタッフの方たちは、笑顔で優しく楽しく、結局シュノーケリングがほとんどできなかったこと、カヤックサーフィンやパドルサーフィンなどの体験もできなかったことを忘れさせてくれる気がしました。
ただ、残念なのが、会社の対応です。船のトラブルで、スケジュールに変更があったにもかかわらず、お詫びが『(希望者のみ購入する)DVD8000円を3000円に割引します』といったものでした。その場では、皆船酔いなどの疲れもあり、了承しましたが、購入しない場合もあることを考えるとおかしいと思います。
スタッフの方たちが、全員よい方だっただけに本当に残念です。グループで参加の中、私だけ二回目参加で、一回目とても楽しかったことを知っていただけに一緒に参加した友人にも申し訳ない気持ちになりました。
予想外のトラブルとはいっても、今後もあり得ることだと思いますし、キチンとした対応を考えていただきたいと思います。
参加者のかたたち、スタッフのみなさんの対応には感謝いたします。ありがとうございました。
This is my second time at Sandbar, and I felt comfortable participating thanks to the fun staff.
My child was 2 years old last time and is now 5, but even at 2, they were able to enjoy swimming in the shallow water.
The staff were also kind to the children, and it seemed like they were having a great time.
I hope to join with my friends' family next time!
Thank you very much!!
サンドバーは2回目ですが、楽しいスタッフさんで安心して参加でしました。
子供が前回は2歳で今回は5歳ですが、2歳のときから遠浅で楽しく泳ぐことができました。
スタッフさんも、子供に優しくしていただいて、楽しそうでした。
次回はお友達ファミリーと一緒に参加できたらいいなぁとおもいます♪
ありがとうございました!!
It was cold, perhaps because of the season in November or the cloudy weather. I didn't expect it since we were walking on sand, but there were broken corals scattered around, which hurt my feet. I think it would be better to have water sandals. The sea had poor visibility, and there were no fish, which was disappointing! However, it was nice that the honu came close to us. I was surprised by how luxurious the light meal was, despite it being labeled as a snack.
11月という季節のせいか、曇りのせいかとにかく寒かったです。
砂の上を歩くというので、考えていませんでしたが、
割れたサンゴがゴロゴロしてて、足が痛く水中用のサンダルがあったほうが良いと思います。
海は透明度が悪く、魚もいなくてガッカリ!
ただ、ホヌが近くまで来てくれてよかったです。
軽食付きとありましたが、とても豪華でびっくりしました。
I participated in the Heaven's Sea tour! I actually wanted to join in the morning, but the afternoon tour was perfectly fine, and I thoroughly enjoyed Heaven's Sea! A sea turtle came really close to me, and it was my first time experiencing something like that; it was so much fun! The afternoon tour included lunch, and the lunch menu was incredibly delicious. I was worried about getting seasick, but I didn't feel it at all and had a great time! I would love to join this tour again if I have the chance!
天国の海ツアー参加してきました!
本当は朝から参加にしたかったんですが、昼からツアーでもまったく問題なく天国の海を満喫できました!
ウミガメが本当に近くによってきてくれて、あんな体験初めてで本当にたのしかったです!昼ツアーはランチつきだったんですが、ランチメニューもものすごくおいしかったです。船酔いも心配してましたが、全然なく思いっきり楽しめました!
機会があればまた参加したいツアーです!
had a great time on the cruise. food was great. the view was awsome. the staff was great. loved the entertainment. you are treated very well.
I had seen a hula dance show in Guam before. I wondered if it would be similar, but since I was in Hawaii, I decided to watch it there as well. Even though the type of dance was the same, it was truly amazing no matter how many times I saw it!!! I got to see a lot of different types of dances, and the fire dance was absolutely captivating!!! It was so incredible that I still can't forget it and I want to see it again☆ The women were beautiful, and the men were strong♪ It was a lot of fun!!!
以前グアムでもフラダンスショーは見たことがありました。
似た感じなのかなぁと思いましたが、せっかくなのでハワイ
でも見る事に♪
ダンスの種類は同じでもやっぱり何度見てもすばらしい!!!
いろんな種類のダンスがいっぱい見れたし、何と言っても
ファイヤーダンスがくぎ付け!!!
すごくて今でも忘れられないしまた見たいって思いました☆
女性は綺麗だったし男性はたくましかったし♪
とても楽しかったです!!!
This is my fourth time in Hawaii. Each time, I sign up for a sunset cruise, and this May I experienced a 5-star cruise, so I wanted to experience the daytime ocean as well and signed up this time. The daytime ocean was even better than I imagined, and I thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful sea. If I had to be picky, it would have been nice to have a bit more time sailing through the wind during the same time frame. Therefore, I give it 4 stars... I recommend it for both beginners and repeat visitors to Hawaii.
ハワイは4度目
行くたびにサンセットクルーズに申し込みして今年の5月には★5スターも体験したので昼間の海も体験したいと思い今回申し込みました。
想像以上に昼間の海は気持ちが良く素晴らしい海を満喫しました。
欲を言えば同じ時間内で風を切って走る時間がもう少し長いと良かったです。
なので☆4個・・・・ハワイ初心者からリピーターにもお薦めですね。
I arrived at the reception 10 minutes before the scheduled time according to the voucher. There were white wooden chairs at the reception, but it didn't start until 20 minutes past the scheduled time.
There were about 20 people in total, and we were the only Japanese group. I was told there would be staff who spoke Japanese, but the explanations were only in English. Everyone was laughing, but I couldn't understand anything.
Perhaps because I'm always in a hurry, I'm not used to relaxing, and just sitting in the chair made me feel bored.
バウチャーとおり10分前に受付を探して行きました。
白い木製の椅子が受付、しかし受付時刻20分過ぎてやっとはじまりました。
総勢20名ぐらい、日本人は私たちの組のみ、日本語を話すスタッフがいるとのことでしたが、説明は英語のみ、みなさん笑っていましたがさっぱりわからなかった。
いつもせかせかしているせいか、のんびりすることに不慣れで椅子にすわっているだけで、退屈してしまいました。
I thought there would be more attractions and that it would be larger, but surprisingly, I managed to cover most of it quickly. The water is really cold.
けど、もっと広くてたくさんアトラクションあるかと思ったら
以外とすぐだいたい制覇してしまった。
水がすげー冷たいです。
It was a participation of two women. Our goal was to float in the sea and relax all day while getting a tan, so this plan with transportation and lunch was just perfect. The pizza for lunch was also delicious. The sea was incredibly beautiful.
女子2人での参加でした。
海に浮かんでゆっくりのんびりして一日中、日焼けするのが目的でしたので送迎&ランチ付きのこのプランはちょうど良かったです。
ランチのピザも美味しかったです。
海は最高に綺麗でした。
We had a very good time at the polynisian cultural center. Had an opportunity to understand about the different cultures in the polynesian islands.
I participated in a company trip with my colleagues. We also attended a cruising show, but unlike the audience participation shows, this one had a much more relaxed pace, and there were moments when I felt a bit sleepy just watching. Since we had premium seats, we were the first to eat, but the food was quite bland, so I didn't enjoy it much. I was left with the impression that the fruit was the most delicious part, which was disappointing. The climax of the fire dance was very impressive, but considering the food and the price, I can't say I was completely satisfied.
会社の旅行で同僚達と参加しました。
クルージングのショーにも参加しましたが客席参加のものとは異なり、かなりゆったりした進行で、ほとんどがショーを見だけで若干眠くなる場面もありました。
プレミアムシートだったので、食事は一番乗りで食べられたのですが、内容が大味すぎて今ひとつ食はすすみませんでした。フルーツが一番美味しかったような印象なのが残念に感じました。
クライマックスのファイアーダンスは見応え満点でしたが、食事、値段なども合わせると大満足とはいきませんでした。
Capt Mike and his deckhand Travis were awesome. We saw plenty of sea turtles and a baby dolphin even did a flip for us! The sailing after the snorkeling was so relaxing as we cruised by diamond head. It's like an adventure that comes from a movie. The catamaran was big and comfortable. I miss Hawaii just reminiscing on this adventure. This is a must go cruise and snorkel trip.
You can experience the strange situation of walking in the sea surrounded by water. The sea, reflecting the sunlight, looked even more beautiful. You can also meet sea turtles!!
まわりが海のなかを歩くという不思議な状況が体験できます。海が太陽の光を受けてきれいな海がさらにきれいに見えました。ウミガメにも会えます!!
It was great to see the sea turtles up close.
ウミガメがとても近くで見れてとてもよかったです。
The timing is very important as it greatly relates to the tides. I wanted to walk on a sandbar like in the photo, but when I went, the shallowest part was only about ankle-deep.
When I went snorkeling, a turtle suddenly appeared right at our feet, and my excitement shot up!
After snorkeling, the boat took us around to where the turtles were. I was really happy when I saw multiple turtle heads popping up from the waves. While we were doing that, the sun came out, and we enjoyed a very pleasant cruise.
I would like to participate again at the right time.
潮の満ち引きが大いに関係するので、タイミングがとっても重要です。写真のようなサンドバーを歩いてみたかったけど、私がいったときは一番浅いところでくるぶしくらいの深さでした。
シュノ-ケリングをしたとき、いつの間にかカメが私たちの足元にいるという感じで出現。テンションが一気に上がりました!
シュノ-ケリングのあと船でカメがいるところを回ってくれました。カメの頭が波間から複数みえたときはとてもうれしかったです。そうこうしているうちに、晴れ間がでてきてとても気持ちの良いクルーズを楽しめました。
また時期を見計らって参加したいです。
It is often featured in guidebooks, and I had always wanted to visit it when I went to Hawaii. There were some waves, but I was able to see the clear ocean. There were also several sea turtles popping their heads out of the water, which was adorable. Walking in the ocean felt really nice. There was nothing but the sea around, and the scenery was wonderful. The food was delicious, and I felt safe snorkeling for the first time with the guides watching over us. I'm really glad I participated. It was so much fun!
ガイドブックによく掲載されていて、ハワイに行ったら絶対行きたいと思っていました。
少し波がありましたが、透き通った海を見ることができました。ウミガメも何匹も海から顔を出していたのでかわいかったです。
海の中を歩く感じですごく気持ちよかったです。周りには海しかなく、景色もすばらしかったです☆
料理もおいしかったし、初めてのシュノーケリングはガイドさんたちにしっかり見守られながらだったので安心してできました。
参加して本当によかったです。すごく楽しかったです♪
Initially, I was scheduled to board on the second day of my stay, but unfortunately, the second and third days were booked for a private group, so I boarded two days before my return. I had checked the weather forecast for the latter half of my stay and found that the weather was not looking good, so it wasn't a cloudless sunset as predicted, but with some clouds, I was able to enjoy the changing colors of the clouds.
Most of the passengers were foreigners (I was also a foreigner in Hawaii!), primarily Americans, with only one other Japanese couple on board. Although Japanese was not spoken, I didn't feel inconvenienced during the approximately one-and-a-half-hour cruise while listening to Hawaiian music.
Since it was a catamaran, I expected less rocking, but unfortunately, the wind was strong and the waves were high, so it rocked quite a bit. My wife is not fond of boats, but she took motion sickness medication, so she was fine. The kids were thrilled.
I have also been on the Hilton's submarine, so there wasn't anything new for me to see from the boat looking at Waikiki, but those who are boarding for the first time will likely enjoy it.
Two drink tickets were distributed for alcohol, allowing for beer or champagne. Junk food and teriyaki chicken were served, but since this is a cocktail cruise, don't expect much in terms of food. If you get a good sunset, it will be fantastic!
当初は、滞在2日目に乗船予定でしたが、あいにく団体貸切に2日目、3日目がとられてしまい帰国2日前に乗船しました。天気予報で滞在後半、天気が芳しくないことを調べていたので、予報通り雲の無いサンセットではありませんでしたが、そこそこ雲があると雲の色の変化も楽しめます。
ほとんどが外人(私もHAWAIIでは外人!!)アメリカ人で日本人はもう1カップルのみでした。
日本語は通じませんが、Hawaiiannを聞きながら約1時間半のクルーズには不便を感じませんでした。
双胴船なので揺れが少ないはずでしたが、あいにく風が強く波も高かったので、結構揺れました。妻は船が苦手でしたが酔い止めb薬を飲んでいたので大丈夫でした。
子供は大喜びでした。
小生は、ヒルトンのサブマリンも乗船しているので、船から見るWAIKIKIに目新しさはありませんでしたが、初めて乗られる方はには喜ばれるでしょう。
アルコールは2杯までただのチケットが配られ、ビールやシャンパンが飲めます。ジャンクフードとチキンの照り焼き風が出ましたが、カクテルクルーズなので料理は期待しないでください。
良いサンセットにあたるとサイコーでしょう!!
