Oahu
It was breathtaking to see the landscapes I had seen in Jurassic Park and LOST up close. The tour guide's American jokes were very funny.
ジュラシックパークやLOSTで観た風景を間近で観れるのは圧巻でした。
ツアーガイドさんのアメリカンジョークはとても面白かったです。
Even with standard seating our seats were close to the stage and our view was very good. Venue doesn’t offer the tropical and natural setting and backdrop (high rise in background of all our photos), but it was close to our hotel and didn’t consume several hours of our day/night going/returning on a bus.
Entertainment was very good and the food was good. All luaus are expensive, so no real bargains.
Overall, we are glad we went and had the experience.
It was my first experience, and I was able to feel Hawaii. There were various events, and it became a lifelong memory. It was fun!
初めての体験で、ハワイを感じる事ができました。
色々なイベント事があり、一生の思い出になりました。
楽しかったデス
It was a wonderful show where I could enjoy various genres of music and dance. The quality of the singing and dancing was also high.
いろいろなジャンルの音楽やダンスを楽しめて素晴らしいショーでした。歌やダンスのクオリティも高かったです。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella Rockin' Show. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the various genres of music, Hawaiian shows, and dances. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラ ロッキンショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。いろいろなジャンルの音楽やハワイアンショー & ダンスを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。
Liked being first to beach, life vest was missing straps that go between legs front to back, this caused jacket to float up around neck, the overall experience is good and I recommend, but life vests need addressed
My 7-year-old son got hooked on the Tornado and went down six times with breaks in between! Climbing back up after each slide wore us parents out, but we had so much fun since we didn't have to wait long.
My 10-year-old daughter mostly enjoyed the wave pool, and there were attractions for everyone to enjoy, which was great. I wasn't sure how crowded it would be, but we only had a day pass, and the food court wasn't crowded at all, so we didn't have any issues. The guide helped us with how to use the locker machines and pointed out the hidden free chair spots, which was really helpful. I thought we might run out of time, but I think the duration was just right for our energy levels.
The kids said they want to come back when we visit Hawaii again, so I definitely want to return!
7才の男の子はトルネードにはまり休憩はさんで6回も滑りました!滑っては登りを繰り返して親はへとへとになりましたが…あまり待たずにいけたので、親子共々とっても楽しかったです!
10才の女の子はほとんど波のプール、それぞれ楽しめるアトラクションがあり助かりました。
混み具合がわからなかったけど、私達は1日券のみでしたがフードコートも混んでなく特に困りませんでした。ガイドさんがロッカーの機械の使い方や穴場の無料チェアーの場所など教えてくれて助かりました。時間も足りないかな?と思ったけど、体力的にはちょうどいい時間だったと思います。
またハワイに来た時に子供達が行きたいと言ってるので来たいと思います!
Last time, I participated in the evening course to watch the fireworks, but this time I joined the morning course because I wanted to see dolphins. I was truly moved that they changed the course to where the dolphins were, just as I had hoped.
前回は花火を見る夜のコースでしたが、今回は午前のコース、イルカをみたくて参加しましたが、期待通りいる方にコースを変えてくれて本当感動しました。
お帰りなさい!私たちはあなたが私たちとの体験を楽しんでいただけたと聞いてとても嬉しいです。またすぐにお越しいただけることを楽しみにしています!
Welcome back! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience with us, and we would love to have you back soon!
Definitely recommend this activity!
I went with my mom, she does not know how to swim or is comfortable with the ocean, but somehow she managed to experience the sandbar and actually got in the water. This was a huge deal for her and it helped tide was low so she felt more comfortable.
Crew was amazing and engaged with all of us on tour! They helped those in need and made us all feel welcomed.
We would definitely book this tour again and bring our family with us next time!
Thank you guys! My mom wouldn’t stop talking about how much fun she had and how you guys made her feel safe despite her fear of water.
Even though it was sunny in Waikiki, as we made our way to the sandbar, the clouds started to gather and it rained lightly at the end. However, we were able to encounter sea turtles, and the snorkeling allowed us to see the fish beautifully, so I was satisfied. It was also fun to be surrounded by movie filming locations, and the explanations were well done.
ワイキキの方は晴れていてもいざサンドバーの方まで行くとだんだん雲行きが怪しくなって雨は最後にぱらつく程度降りましたがウミガメも遭遇できましたし、シュノーケルでは魚が綺麗に見えたので満足です。周りが映画のロケ地で説明も上手で楽しかったです。
My child is 6 years old, and I think we had a great experience with the various slides and children's pools that were available for the admission fee. I believe I went on a Tuesday, and while the regular hours are supposed to be until 5 PM, for some reason that day it ended at 3 PM. We went by rental car, and the highway was also congested on the way back, so I wondered if Tuesdays in Hawaii generally have shorter working hours. Outside food and drinks are completely prohibited, and you have to purchase everything inside, but we had to wait quite a bit in both the ordering and pickup lines. As is often the case, the tables were left dirty with sauce from the previous guests.
子供は6才ですが利用できるスライダーや子供用のプールも充実しており入場料に見合った体験が出来たと思います。私が行ったのは火曜日だったと思いますが通常の営業時間は17時までだったはずですが何故かその日は15時で終了となってしまいました。レンタカーで行っていたのですが帰りの高速道路も渋滞していたのでハワイの火曜日は全般的に仕事の勤務時間が短い日なのかなと思いました。飲食物の持ち込みは一切禁止で場内で購入ですがオーダーの列と受け取りどちらもけっこう並びました。有りがちですがテーブルは前の人達が汚したソースとか付いたままになっていました。
I was worried because there were no Japanese speakers available, but there was no problem enjoying the activities themselves (I think it would have been even more fun if I could understand the English explanations). My family had a great time, especially the kids who were very satisfied! One of the other groups on board looked quite miserable from seasickness, so I recommend bringing motion sickness medication.
日本語を話す方がいない時間帯だったので心配でしたが、アクティビティを楽しむこと自体に問題はなく(たぶん英語の説明が分かればもっと楽しかったと思いますが)、家族で楽しんできました。とくに子どもが大満足でした!同乗していた別グループの方は、船に酔ってずっと辛そうだったので、酔い止め持参がオススメです。
Thank you for your review. I'm very happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed your time. As you mentioned here, I recommend taking motion sickness medication for customers who are concerned about seasickness.
書き込み、ありがとうございます。家族で楽しんでいただけてとても嬉しいです。ありがとうございます。ここにも書いていただいている通りですが、船酔いがご心配なお客様には、酔い止めの服用をお勧めします。
Great tour and delicious treat, perfect way to combine a tour!
Yummy food and beautiful Hawaii views out your boat window! Can't go wrong
Be prepared to take a lot of knowledge in! Everyone in our family had plenty of fun!
This was awesome way to have all the museums as my husband really wanted a tour with everything!
This was the highlight of our trip! Esp seeing the dolphins spalshing around!!
Thank you for your review! We’re so glad to hear that seeing the dolphins on our tours was the highlight of your trip! We hope to welcome you back for more amazing experiences!
it was very educational and all the staff were informative and very nice. I highly recommend it.
Not only Japanese people, but also foreigners participated, and there were staff members who could speak Japanese, so I was able to enjoy the snorkeling experience with peace of mind.
日本人だけでなく、外国の方も参加されていましたが、日本語を話せるスタッフもいたので、安心してシュノーケリングの体験をすることができました。
I had ordered and paid for a life jacket in advance, but I couldn't rent it on the day of my visit... I couldn't understand the English, and when I arrived and tried to communicate, the bus had already left (crying). The sea was very clear, and I could see the fish.
ライフジャケットを事前に注文、支払いしていましたが、当日レンタルできませんでした…。英語の理解が及ばず、到着して伝えようとしたらもうバスが行ってしまっていました(泣)海はとても透明で魚も見れました。
Super fun. Lovely ship. Friendly crew. Yummy food. Beautiful dance show. Just do it!
This is my 3rd time coming here over the years, and it never disappoints it just gets better and better. I highly recommend this experience to everyone. Visiting the different islands was both informative and entertaining. Our buffet dinner was suburb with vast food choices. The show HA was spectacular. We thoroughly enjoyed ourself their performance was flawless. Keep up the magnificent work !!
There were three staff members who were fluent in Japanese, so I had no trouble at all, and they were even able to engage in playful banter! I was very satisfied to see sea turtles while snorkeling both last year and this year from the boat! It's better to take two pool towels from the hotel so you won't be cold on the bus ride back. When planning in Japan, it's best to prioritize booking for low tide at the sandbar. I will keep going until I can experience low tide someday!! Book at the heavenly sea! Be careful, as you can't get too close if the names are similar.
日本語の上手なスタッフが3名もいたので何も困らない上に、ノリツッコミまでできる強者スタッフ!
去年も今年も船の中からもシュノーケルしてても海亀が見れて大満足!ホテルのプールタオルは2枚持って行った方が帰りのバスで寒くなくて良い。日本で予定を立てる時にサンドバーの干潮を優先して予約した方が良い。いつか干潮に出会えるまで行き続ける!!天国の海で予約!似てる名前だと近くまで行けないから注意してね。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We greatly appreciate your wonderful review and the fun photos. We look forward to the day we can meet again, from all of us including Karen. A hui hou!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂きましてありがとうございました。
大変嬉しいレビューと楽しいお写真ありがとうございます。ぜひまたお会いできる日をカレンをはじめスタッフ一同お待ちしております。A hui hou!
I was able to see many sea turtles. And, fortunately, I also saw dolphins, so it was the best day ever. The waves were calm, and it was a fortunate tour.
海亀がたくさん見れました。
そして、運良くイルカも見れたので、最高な1日でした。波も穏やかで運に恵まれたツアーでした。
The food and the show were amazing. Above all, the intensity of the fire dance and the power of Michael Jackson's performance left a lasting impression on me.
食事からショーまでさいこーでした。
なんといっても、ファイヤーダンスの迫力、マイケルジャクソンの迫力、全てが記憶に残りました。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the fire knife performance and Michael Jackson tribute. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラVIPワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。ファイヤーナイフそして、マイケルジャクソンも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。
17:10 Arrived at the meeting place (the meeting time was noted as 17:15)
~ Waiting while standing for about 40 minutes ~
17:50 Entered the venue
~ Waiting at the seats for about 40 minutes ~
18:30 Guided to go get the buffet
~ Waiting in line for food ~
18:45 Served the first dish on the plate
~ Picking various dishes ~
18:55 Finished getting food and took a seat. Started eating.
19:00 The performance begins
Around 20:00, fireworks go off
◆ Overall, there was a lot of waiting. I brought my elderly parents, and the waiting times really tired them out.
◆ If you're just listening to the performance and singing, I think it's sufficient to stay in the guest room.
◆ For the luau show, there were people staying at the Hilton who watched from the beach outside the venue over a low fence. Honestly, it was easier to see up close than sitting in the golden seats.
◆ As mentioned in other experiences, there are times when it rains, which can be stressful. I found myself wishing, "Please don't let it rain!" Also, the wind was quite strong.
◆ Because of the strong wind, the food got quite cold while I was getting it. Still, the meat dishes were delicious. The menu was limited, and the breakfast buffet at Japanese hotels has more variety. I don't remember everything, but there were about two small cakes for dessert and one type of something like fruit punch.
◆ The golden seats made it quite difficult to see the show. If you're aiming for the show, I think the higher-class Diamond Premier is better.
Choosing this show for my trip to Hawaii was a mistake. I should have skipped this show and opted for a restaurant or TOGO, spending more time on sightseeing in Waikiki or ocean leisure activities. I cannot recommend it to those who find waiting times unbearable or a waste.
The day before, I went on the "Dinner Cruise Star of Honolulu 3 Star," and that was very good.
17:10 集合場所到着(集合時間は17:15と記載あり)
〜立って待機 約40分〜
17:50 会場に入る
〜座席で待機 約40分〜
18:30 ブッフェ取りに行っていいよと案内される
〜料理の順番待ち〜
18:45 最初の料理を皿に盛る
〜色々料理とっていく〜
18:55 料理取り終わり着席。食事開始。
19:00 演奏が始まる
20:00ごろ 花火が上がる
◆とにかくひたすら待つことが多かったです。高齢の親を連れて行ったのですが、待ち時間でとても疲れさせてしまいました。
◆演奏や歌を聴くだけなら、客室にいても十分だと思います。
◆ルアウショーは、ヒルトン宿泊の人なら会場外のビーチから低い柵越しに鑑賞してる人もいました。正直ゴールデンシートに座ってるより近くで良く見えました。
◆他の体験談でもありましたが、雨が降る時があるので落ち着かないです。「お願いだから降らないで〜」と願うストレス、、、あと風が結構強い。
◆風が強いので、料理をとってる間に料理がかなり冷めてしまいます。それでも肉系の料理は美味しかったです。メニューは少なく、日本のホテルの朝食ブッフェの方が種類があります。全部は覚えてないけど、デザートは小さいケーキ?2種とフルーツポンチ?みたいなもの1種くらいでした。
◆ゴールデンシートはショーがかなり見えづらかったです。ショー目当てなら上位クラスのダイヤモンドプレミアがいいと思います。
今回のハワイ旅行で、このショーを選んだことは失敗でした。このショーに行かず、レストランかTOGOにして、もっとワイキキ観光や海レジャーに時間を使った方が良かったです。待ち時間が耐えられない・もったいないと思う人にはとてもお勧めできません。
前日に「ディナークルーズ スターオブホノルル 3スター」も行きましたがこれはとても良かった。
Hanauma Bay can be accessed by rental car or trolley, but there is a limit on the number of people allowed in the bay (reservations are required), so for those who prefer convenience, booking through Veltra is a good option. While there were fewer corals compared to the islands of Okinawa, since I went in the morning, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of fish and the number of larger fish. Although it was an early morning tour, there were initially few people (the seawater was a bit cold at first), and the morning-only tour was more than enough to enjoy.
I stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, and the meeting point was at the valet area (hotel entrance) of the neighboring Ilikai Hotel, which was accommodating in English, and there were no issues at all (there was hardly any conversation). By the way, the people I went with were from Germany, Brazil, and Asia. An English speaker among us handled the communication. Inside Hanauma Bay, we had free time. There were lockers available for valuables, but we didn't use them (we took turns going into the water as a family). You might want to bring drinks (and maybe some light snacks). Be aware that there are restrictions on the types of sunscreen you can use. They provided snorkeling gear, including fins, but given the current situation, we only brought our own snorkels. We thoroughly enjoyed our time until the return meeting time, and they drove us back to the morning meeting point. After a short break in the afternoon, we went shopping. I'm glad I visited Hanauma Bay for the first time!
ハナウマ湾はレンタカーやトローリーでも行けますが、湾に入るには人数制限(予約)があるので、色々と面倒な人はベルトラ予約が気楽です。沖縄の島々よりはサンゴは少なかったですが、AMにいったこともあり色々な魚の群衆や大きい魚が思ったより沢山いました。朝早いツアーでしたが、逆に人も最初は少なく(少々海水が最初冷たかった)、AMのみのツアーで十分楽しめました。
ヒルトンビーチリゾートに宿泊していましたが、集合場所はとなりのホテルのイリカイホテルのバレットエリア(ホテルの入口)で、英語対応でしたが全く問題ありませんでした(ほぼ会話する事がない)。因みに一緒に行った人たちはドイツ、ブラジル、アジアの人。逆に英語のわかる人が代表で対応してくれました。ハナウマ湾の中は自由行動。貴重品用のロッカーありとのことでしたが使用しませんでした(家族の順番で海に入って対応)。飲み物は必要かも(軽食程度も)。日焼け止めは種類に規制があるのでご注意を。シュノーケルは足ひれ含めて貸してくれましたが、このご時世我々はシュノーケルのみ持参しました。帰りの集合時間まで十分に堪能して、朝の集合場所まで車で送ってくれました。午後は少し休憩後にショッピングなどに。初めてだったのでハナウマ湾行ってよかったです!
Not only was there hula dancing, but there were also concerts featuring musicians from past generations, which was very enjoyable. Additionally, the fire dance was incredibly impressive! It's definitely worth going!
フラダンスだけでなく歴代のミュージシャンのコンサートも付いていてとても楽しめました。更にはファイヤーダンスも迫力満点!行く価値あります!
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella Rockin' Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed performances by Elvis, Michael, and the fire knife dancers. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラ ロッキンショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。エルビスやマイケルそして、ファイヤーナイフなど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。
Our server, Danny brought great energy and had exceptional hospitality service. Good experience and perfect to enjoy with family.
It was my first cruise, and I had a great time. The only regret was that a hurricane was approaching, so I couldn't see the sunset. Also, the lobster was not as impressive as I expected (laughs). Overall, I think it was good.
初めてのクルーズでしたがとても楽しかったです。
残念だったのがハリケーンが近づいててサンセットが見られなかったのが心残りでした。
それとロブスターがおもってたよりショボかったですね(笑)
まぁ、総合的には良かったと思います。
Thank you very much for joining our Star of Honolulu dinner cruise for the first time. It's unfortunate that the weather wasn't very good, but we are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the overall cruise with Nova Five Star. We hope that next time you will be able to enjoy the beautiful Hawaiian sunset. All of our staff look forward to welcoming you again.
この度は私共のスターオブホノルル号デイナークルーズに初めてお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。お天気があまり良くなかったのは残念ですが、全体的にノバファイブスターでのクルーズをお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。次回は是非ハワイの素敵なサンセットを楽しんでいただきたいです。またのお越しをスタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
There are some slides that look really scary, but once you ride them, it's over in no time. So, I recommend experiencing them all at least once.
見るからに怖いだろなっていうスライダーもありますが乗ったらあっという間なのでとりあえず一通り体験することをお勧めします。
