Oahu
During my last trip to Hawaii, I was so moved by the show before the Hilton fireworks that this time I wanted to see it up close, and I also wanted to entertain my friend who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, so I made a reservation.
The reviews beforehand weren't great, but we were very satisfied with the show.
The table we were assigned to had few Asians, but the foreigners sitting next to us were very friendly. The conch shell contest was also fun, as we formed teams at each table, which created a great sense of unity. By the way, we watched from the general seating, and it was more than enough.
The stage show was thrilling, and the female MC's storytelling was easy for Japanese people to understand.
Once the show starts, you become glued to the stage, so you won't have time to go for seconds at the buffet or even focus on eating. I recommend eating well before the show begins.
前回のハワイ旅行でヒルトンの花火の前にやっていたショーを見て
感動したので、今回はすぐそばで見たいと思ったのと初ハワイの友人を楽しませたくて
予約しました。
事前の口コミはあんまりでしたが、私たちには大満足のショーでした。
私たちの案内されたテーブルは、アジアの人が少なかったのですが
隣になった外国人の皆さんがとてもフレンドリーに接してくれて
ほら貝のコンテストも、テーブル毎にチームになって
その一体感も良かったです。
ちなみに、一般席での観賞でしたが十分でした。
迫力満点のステージショーやMCの女性の話術も
日本人にもわかりやすくかったです。
一度、ショーが始まるとステージにクギ付けになってしまうので
バイキング料理をお替わりに行ったり、食事なんてしてられなく
なるので、ショーが始まる前に、しっかり食べておくことを
お勧めします。
Despite the unfortunate rain, I had a genuine horseback riding experience on the mountain trails, which became a wonderful memory. It's suitable for beginners as well.
あいにくの雨の中での乗馬でしたが、山道を本格的に乗馬体験ができ、とても良い思い出になりました。初心者でも大丈夫です。
Was fun!! Hope to visit again Honolulu with other friends so they can try this Xtreme parasailing!and the 2 handsome guys was cool! 1 Keep up the good work!!
Last time, I signed up for the seaside tour, but this time I wanted to ride horses for a longer period, so I participated in the canyon tour. I was very satisfied with the long horseback riding. This canyon tour does not require helmets. There were exciting moments as the horses would eat grass, which was a bit nerve-wracking but fun. It mentions that the tour is in English only, but the guide provided simultaneous interpretation, so there were no issues at all. Besides horseback riding, they also took us to Mackey's Shrimp and Aoki Shave Ice. The tour guide, Nakama, has excellent service spirit. I plan to participate again in November, and I hope to have Nakama as my guide again!☆
前回はこちらの海辺ツアーを申し込んだのですが、もう少し乗馬を長時間したいと思い、今回の渓谷ツアーに参加しました。
長時間馬に乗れて大満足。こちらの渓谷ツアーは、ヘルメットなしです。
馬が草を食べたりしてしまうのでハラハラ楽しいハプニング。
英語のみと記載がありますが、ガイドさん?が同時通訳してくれるのでまったく問題ないです。乗馬以外にもマッキーズのシュリンプや、青木シェイブアイスのお店にも連れて行ってくださいました。添乗員のナカマさん、サービス精神が素晴らしいです。
11月もまた参加しようと思っているので、その際はまたナカマさんがいいです☆
This activity is quite easy and can be completed in one hour. I participated in the 9 o'clock course and was back at the harbor by 10. The meeting point at the harbor is just a short distance from the Hilton Hotel. It's a bit hard to find, so I recommend arriving early. Overall, it was a smooth and enjoyable activity.
1時間で完了するアクティビティでかなりお手軽です。私は9時からのコースに参加しましたが、10時にはハーバーに戻ってこられていました。集合先のハーバーはヒルトンホテルからすぐのところです。すこしわかりにくいので早めの集合をおすすめします。総じてスムーズ、楽しいアクティビティでした。
We went snorkeling and saw a lot of turtles above the water. Water wasnt clear enough to see anything with snorkeling gear so they offered free open bar, free sandwiches and cookie.
I was worried because I have a fear of heights, but when I saw the blue ocean, I felt completely fine! It was a wonderful experience, and I made the best memories!
高所恐怖症で心配でしたが、青い海を見たら全然平気でした!
とっても良い経験ができて、最高の思い出が出来ました!
The sea was beautiful, anyway!
I saw a sea turtle from a distance.
It was my first time snorkeling, and I enjoyed seeing the coral too!
It was great that I could first challenge myself in the shallow waters!
The staff were so cheerful! It was reassuring that the Japanese staff provided clear explanations.
The handmade hamburger we had on the boat was delicious!
The freshly grilled patty was juicy!
とにかく海が綺麗でした!
遠目でしたが、海ガメも見れました。
初めてのシュノーケルでしたが、珊瑚も見れて楽しめました(*^^*)
浅瀬でまずチャレンジできたのがよかった!
スタッフの方がとにかく陽気!日本人のスタッフがきちんと説明してくれて安心でした。
船で食べた手作りハンバーガーが美味しかったです!
焼きたてのパテがジューシーでした!
Nice bay and nice service for a fair preis. Thank you
We went out to sea on a boat that can hold about 20 people, crossing rough waves. We were the only Japanese there. We were divided into three groups and entered the cage in turn. The sharks gathered due to the sound of the boat's engine, so we were able to see many of them! They are not carnivorous and are said to be a type that does not attack humans, so we could enjoy it with peace of mind. While waiting on the boat and inside the cage, it rocked quite a bit, so almost everyone got seasick. Everyone who was lively and energetic on the way out was silent and exhausted on the way back... it was a good memory (laughs). As noted in the precautions, it's definitely better to take motion sickness medication. Also, it can get cold if the wind is strong, so I think it's a good idea to bring something to wear and a bath towel to dry off quickly.
20人乗りくらいのボートで荒波をこえ沖まで出ました。
日本人は私たちだけでした。
3グループに分けられ、順番に檻に入ります。
サメはボートのエンジン音で集まってくるのでたくさん見れました!
肉食ではないので人は襲わない種類らしく、安心して楽しめました。
待っている間のボートも、檻の中も、かなり揺れるのでほぼ全員船酔いしてました。
行きはノリノリで元気だったみんなが帰りは無言でぐったり。。。いい思い出です(笑)
注意事項にもあるとおり、酔い止めは絶対飲んだ方がいいですね。
あと、風が強いと寒いので羽織るものとすぐ体をふけるようにバスタオルは持って行った方がいいと思います。
Amazing time on 6/30/14! My first time being in the middle of the ocean and snorkeling...funny and entertaining crew and still made me feel safe...thank you!
We did the 600 ft for 6 minutes and wish we would've purchased to get higher! VERY beautiful view, definitely worth it. The take pictures of you for a fee of 30.00 with a SD card to take home with!
We participated as a family of three, and we were given a thorough tour of various attractions in Hawaii. It was a packed tour! We had a great time!!
親子三人で参加しました、ハワイの様々な観光地を丁寧に案内していただき、盛り沢山なツアーでした!とっても楽しかったです!!
The plan to play with dolphins was fantastic. I was worried about the water being cold after reading some comments, but it wasn't cold at all for the 11 AM plan! Plus, we got to touch the dolphins multiple times, and they seemed to enjoy it; they really like humans. After getting out of the water, we took a quick shower and then watched the show, so our swimsuits dried quickly. There was even a child around 2 years old who participated while being held. There are explanations in Japanese as well.
We wandered around the park from around 9 AM, participated in the event at 11 AM, watched the show at noon, and then took a break with some ice cream... before we knew it, it was time to head home. Of course, you get dirty from being in the pool, but a quick shower is all you need. There are changing rooms, but I think it's best to come dressed as if you're at the beach.
イルカと戯れるプラン。腰までの入水、コメントを見て水が冷たそうだと心配していたのですが…11時からのプランだったら全然寒くない!!しかもイルカに何度も何度も触ることもできて、イルカもそれを楽しんでいる、人間が好きみたい^^水から上がると、シャワー浴びてすぐにショーを見れば水着もすぐに乾くw2歳くらいの子供も抱っこされて参加してましたよ。日本語の説明もあります。
9時ごろからパーク内をうろうろ→11時イベントに参加→12時ショーを見て→アイスでも食べて休憩…としているうちに帰る時間になりました。
もちろんプールに入るので汚れます、シャワーをササッと浴びるだけです。更衣室はありますが、海辺にいるくらいのつもりの恰好で来るのがいいかと思います。
Walking along the shaded area by the sea is comfortable, with a pleasant breeze and stunning views! I even saw a turtle.
Getting a helmet at the hut and being able to start riding just five minutes after a brief explanation is great; there's no waste of time. The two women accompanying the horseback riding were also very nice.
The restroom is dirty, so it's better not to use it.
As for plans other than horseback riding, they are the same as other places on the North Shore, so there are no significant pros or cons. The driver and guide kept explaining things so we wouldn't get bored, which made it enjoyable. No complaints at all!
海沿いの木陰を進むので、暑くない、風が気持ちよく景色も最高!!カメもいたよ。
小屋でヘルメットもらって、説明5分ですぐ乗馬できるのもいい、無駄がないです。乗馬に付き添ってくれる女性2名も感じがいいw
トイレは汚いので使用しない方がいいです。
乗馬以外のプランは、ほかのノースショアと同じですから、良し悪しはないです。運転手 兼 案内人さんがず~~~っと退屈しないように説明をしてくれていて楽しかったです。文句なしです!
Parasailing was my first experience, but the staff's instructions were easy to understand and they were very friendly, so I had a great time! There was a service (for an additional fee) that took pictures of me while I was on the ride, which made for wonderful memories!
パラセーリングは初めての体験でしたが、スタッフの指示はわかりやすくノリが良い方々だったのでとても楽しかったです!
自分が乗ってるところを写真に撮ってくれるサービス(別途料金有)があって良い思い出になりました!
My boyfriend and i really had fun snorkeling thou it's our first time doing it don't even know how to swim still we loved it..Staffs did a well done execellent job..We got to see lovely sea turtles & snorkel in d' ocean by d' reef (seen a lot of fishes) & a panoramic amazingly beautiful view of d' island..will definitely recommend this activities for everyone whose visiting Oahu..Enjoy!
we opted for convenient pickup from our hotel which arrived on time however if you choose to drive - the parking lot seemed empty at the marina. The crew was super friendly and it was a short ride out to open water. Plenty of photo opportunities for Waikiki Beach, surfers and Diamond Head as you had in and out. It wasn't long until the parachute was out and we're up in the air. We did 800 foot line. It's exhilarating yet peaceful up there with great views of the entire island. We were only up there for a few minutes. The crew does take 15-30 pictures while you're up there and will sell it to you for $30 on 4GB SD, which I recommend against it if you already have a GoPro or waterproof camera. Overall I'll say it was a great experience and I do recommend it during your stay.
We'll definitely do this again but with the 1000/1200 foot line.
It was bloody amazing. So worth the money. Do it, you won't regret it.
It was unfortunately rainy from the morning, but the sun came out just during the sandbar and snorkeling time. We checked the tides and were able to see the best views. The round trip from the port was cold due to the rain, and some people were standing in covered areas. There's nothing we can do about the weather, but it would have been even better if it had been sunny.
朝からあいにくの雨でしたが、サンドバーとシュノーケルの時だけ太陽が現れてくれました(^^)v
海の満ち引きを調べて行き、最高の景色を見ることができました。
港からの往復は、雨で寒く屋根のあるところで立っている方もいました。
天気ばかりはどうしようもないですが、晴れていたらもっと良かったでしょう(^-^)
I love Hawaii and go there 1 to 2 times every year. This was my second time participating in the activity of swimming with wild dolphins. Last time (with a different company), I was able to swim with a pod of dolphins, which was incredibly moving, and this time I enrolled in Dolphin University.
Not only can you swim with dolphins, but you can also enjoy malasadas, see sea turtles, and if you wish, you can do kayaking as well (they prioritize your preferences without any pressure). I was truly satisfied.
On the boat, they played the ukulele and sang songs, and performed hula dance; it was the best experience I've had so far. I think everyone, from first-timers to repeat visitors, can enjoy this.
At the end, the pod of dolphins escorted us back to the harbor and showed us some jumps. Above all, the staff were all very warm, and I definitely want to participate again next year.
ハワイ大好きで、毎年1~2回は行っています。
野生のイルカと泳ぐアクティビティも今回で2回目でした。
前回も(違う会社でしたが)イルカの群れと泳ぐことができ、すごく感動し今回はイルカ大学に入学しました。
イルカと泳ぐだけでなく、マラサダが食べられたり、海ガメがみれたり希望すればカヤック等も出来て(無理強いすることなく希望を優先にしてくれます)本当に大満足でした。
船上でウクレレを演奏して歌を歌ってくれたり、フラダンスを踊ってくれたり、今まで参加した中でも1番でした。
ハワイ初めての方から、リピーターの方まで皆さんが楽しめると思います。
最後はイルカの群れが港まで送ってくれ、ジャンプも見せてくれました。
何より、スタッフの方が皆さんあたたかくて来年も是非参加させて頂きたいと思います。
We had family visiting from the mainland, so we went for a ride along the beach and had an absolutely fabulous time!
We had so much fun and were glad that we can all 3 go at the same time. Would recomend this to all our friends that go and visit.
The sandbar feels like an ordinary beach in the ocean, so I wasn't as impressed as I thought I would be, haha. However, I think it's nice to spend the day relaxing, eating burgers grilled on the boat, watching sea turtles from the boat, and snorkeling.
サンドバーは海の中にある普通の砂浜という感じなので思ったほど感動でもなかったです笑でも、船で焼いてくれたハンバーガーを食べたり、船上からウミガメを見たり、シュノーケリングをしたりと1日のんびり過ごせてよいかと思います。
This was my first time participating! Although I have a fear of heights, I wanted to feel the wind and sky of Hawaii, and thought I might be able to do it if I was with my husband, so I decided to join!
My husband was okay with going higher, but since it was our first time, we signed up for 90 meters!
There were a total of five groups: two foreign couples and families, a Japanese couple and family, and us.
We were quite anxious since we don't speak any English, but the staff, including the drivers, could speak a little Japanese, so there were no problems at all.
The staff helped us with putting on the equipment, so without any explanation, we were ready to go up into the sky!
During the parasailing, I was a bit scared thinking it might sway or feel floaty, but it was hardly like that, and it was incredibly fun!! I was very satisfied to feel the beautiful sea, blue sky, and the wind of Hawaii!
I highly recommend it to everyone!
We also requested photos! We had some fun expressions during the water splash moments that we had never seen before. They took a lot of great shots, which became wonderful memories.
I was worried about seasickness, but I took motion sickness medicine and tried to look as far away as possible, and it was totally fine.
The staff's service was great, so I definitely encourage everyone to participate! Next time, I will challenge myself to go a little higher!
初めて参加しました!
高所恐怖症の私ですが、ハワイの風と空を感じたくて
主人と一緒なら飛べるかも?!と参加を決意!
主人はもっと高くてもよかったのですが、初めてということもあり
90メートルに申込みました!
参加者は外国のカップルと親子の2組と
日本人カップルと家族、私たちの合計5組でした。
私たちは英語が全くダメなので不安でしたが、
スタッフの方は送迎の方も含めて日本語が少しできるので
何も問題なかったです。
装具をつけたりするのも全部スタッフの方がしてくださるので
何も説明がなくてもすぐに空へGO!でした。
パラセイル中、揺れたりふわっとしたりするのかなと少し恐怖感がありましたが
ほとんどそんなことはなく、めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです!!
きれいな海と青い空、ハワイの風を感じることができ大満足!
みんなにもおすすめしています!
写真も頼みました!
水ポチャの瞬間とか見たことのない楽しそうな表情の私たちでした。
本当にたくさん連写でとって頂き、いい記念になりましたよ。
船酔いも心配しましたが、酔い止めをしっかり飲み
なるべく遠くをみていたりしたら全然大丈夫でした。
スタッフの方の対応も良いので、ぜひ皆さんも参加してみてくださいね!
つぎはもう少し高いのを挑戦します!
We had a very good time. The weather was beautiful, the water and snorkeling was great. Captain Bob and his crew did an excellent job. Everything was great. Will recommend to any one going to Honolulu.
Great experience, Chris and Steve were wonderful, very entertaining and knowledgeable. Saw lots of turtles and fish!!! Highly recommend!!!
I participated alone, and at the time I joined, there was no one else participating alone. However, the guide really took care of me, which made me happy. I was able to swim with dolphins just as the title promised, and I also encountered sea turtles.
On the boat during the transfers, the staff really got everyone excited, and I didn't have a moment of boredom; it truly became a wonderful memory. Although there were only Japanese participants, I felt very embarrassed as no one gave a tip despite how well we were treated.
There are cultural differences, but since I was in America, experiencing the local culture is part of the joy of traveling. I hope people can understand that it's not about thinking "tips are a waste," but rather experiencing a culture where showing appreciation with money is valued. If you enjoyed your experience, please be sure to give a tip!
私は一人で参加したんですが、私が参加した時は、他に一人で参加した人はいませんでした。ですが、ガイドさんはとっても私のことをケアしてくれて、うれしかったです。
まさしくイルカと一緒に泳ぐ事ができたし、タイトルどおりウミガメとも出会えました。
移動中の船上では、スタッフの方が思いっきり盛り上げてくれましたし、暇することも無く本当にいい思い出になりました。
日本人ばかりの参加だったのですが、こんなに良くしてくれたのに、誰一人チップをあげている人がいなくて、いち日本人としてとても恥ずかしくなりました。
文化の違いもありますが、アメリカに行ったんだから現地の文化を堪能する事も旅の醍醐味ですので「チップ代もったいない」と思わず、気持ちをお金で見せる文化だという事を体感してほしいです。
参加した方は、良かったと思ったら是非チップをあげてください!!!
It was a pleasant experience to ride horses slowly along the beach. I was a bit nervous since it was my first time riding, but the two female instructors were kind and guided me well. In the end, I felt a sense of unity with the horse! It became a valuable experience.
浜辺をゆっくり乗馬する気持ちの良い体験でした。初めての乗馬で緊張気味だったけど、女性二人のインストラクターが優しく指導してくれ、最後は馬との一体感も感じられたような!?貴重な体験になりました。
Get ready for a fun time on this catamaran! The dolphins are a plenty and are in their hibernating season so they stay close to the coast. While you don't get in the water surrounded by dolphins, it keeps them safe, so it's good for everyone. There were so many kinds of fish and it was fun to swim through them. It was a nice cool day, and the dolphins were definitely out there. They got nice and close to the boat! The snorkel was amazing. By lunchtime, I was looking forward to food. The Captain is a fine cook and knows his way around a boat so it's double bonus for us. We had the tasty teriyaki chicken sandwich, which I can proudly give 5 stars! Try the Naked Pirate drink. It's awesome! The crew on the boat was friendly and managed to keep it fun for everyone even with a bunch of little kids running around. It's family-friendly and they made sure those kids stayed safe. This catamaran sail is worth every penny and then some. I highly recommend!
