I was looking forward to Sandbar, but at the time close to high tide, the sand wasn't exposed, and it was just a shallow area with splashing. Since it was shallow, there were no fish at all. Well, I did choose to depart a bit later in the morning.
In the afternoon snorkeling, we swam around the coral reef, but the fish were just average to sparse. The water clarity was low, but the coral was magnificent.
The cruise guide, Yumiko, was very enjoyable and considerate, and the hamburger for lunch was delicious, creating a very nice atmosphere.
サンドバー、楽しみにしていましたが、満潮に近い時刻で砂は浮き出ておらず、単なる浅瀬のぱちゃぱちゃでした。浅瀬なので魚も全くおらず。まぁ、午前中ゆっくりめの出発を選んだのは私ですが。
午後のシュノーケリングでは、サンゴ礁の回りを泳ぎますが、魚影はごくふつうから少なめ。水の透明度は低め。サンゴはみごとでしたが。
クルーズのガイド、ゆみこさんはとても楽しく、気を遣ってくれて、ランチのハンバーガーはおいしくて、雰囲気はとてもよかった。

The Toa Luau was a great first luau for our family (30 to 60 year olds). Waimea Valley itself is beautiful; definitely come at least 2 hours early to be able to walk to the waterfall and enjoy the scenery. The pre-luau activities like weaving grass head bands, husking coconuts etc were fun. The show itself was fantastic too - they performed authentic ceremonies and dances from different Polynesian islands. The host was hilarious! Only slight downside was the food was only mediocre. We are all vegetarian and our main entree was bland quinoa; but we were happy there was even a vegetarian option (you have to request ahead of time though). Overall this luau is definitely worth it and we will recommend it to all of our family and friends!!

I was given motion sickness medication, and there was a restroom on the boat. It was great to see dolphins swimming right below us and schools of them passing in front of us. However, it was confusing to be dropped off at a snorkeling spot where there was nothing to see, and the photographer was unnaturally energetic, which was a bit annoying. I think a more assertive approach might create good memories for couples. Overall, it was nice to see the dolphins.
酔い止めを渡され、船内にトイレもありました。イルカが真下を泳いでいたり、目の前を通る群れを見れてよかったです。ただ、シュノーケルのスポットは何もいないのに降ろされて意味不明だったのと、カメラマンが常に不自然な程テンションが高くめんどくさかったです。多少強引な方が、カップルさんとかは良い思い出になると思います。内容的にはイルカが見れてよかったです。

Everything was amazing! First of all, Mr. Gaito's guidance was very thorough, which made me feel secure participating in the tour. The BBQ hamburger was also juicy and incredibly delicious! Above all, I was able to fully enjoy the ocean in Hawaii! At the sandbar, I took photos right in the middle of the sea and admired the beautiful water. During the sea turtle watching, although they were a bit far away, I encountered two sea turtles. While snorkeling, I was able to swim alongside a sea turtle! If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would definitely love to participate once more!
全てが最高でした!
まず、ガイトさんの案内が非常に丁寧で安心してツアーに参加することが出来ました。BBQハンバーガーも肉汁が溢れてとても美味しかったです!
そして何よりハワイの海を満喫出来ました!サンドバーでは海のど真ん中で写真を撮ったり、綺麗な海を眺めたり。ウミガメウォッチングでは少し遠目ではありましたが、ウミガメ2匹と遭遇。シュノーケリングでは何とウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました!
またハワイに行く機会があれば是非もう一度参加したいです!

This was an amazing experience! I went with a group of friends and we all loved the environment of the cruise ship. The food was pretty amazing and the live jazz performance was very enjoyable. My favorite was definitely the Polynesian live dance performance. This 30-minute performance was the highlight of the night. The dancers wouldn't just perform, they would interact with the audience by giving high fives, springing peace signs at unexpected times and made our corner of the ship laugh the entire time. If you get seasick easily, I would recommend taking some kind of precaution/medication (the servers were able to provide some medication, too) since a few of my friends did start feeling queasy for a little bit and had to spend some time on the lower deck. However, don't let motion sickness keep you from the cruise! It was still altogether wonderful time.

We participated as a family of three, including my 5-year-old daughter who is 105 cm tall and weighs 15 kg. We chose the highest ride available.
My daughter tends to be a bit afraid of heights; she wanted to ride the Ferris wheel but was nervous and needed to be carried. She also gets scared when she sees the ground while going down the stairs, so I was worried she might cry during the ride, but she was fine.
She had a serious expression the whole time we were flying, but after we got off, she said, "Let's go again!" so it seems she enjoyed it. The boat ride felt like a roller coaster, and she had fun with that too. Normally, she doesn't get car sick, but she did feel nauseous on the plane, so we quickly bought some motion sickness medicine at ABC Store before going.
Overall, it felt like an extremely scenic swing. I think anyone who can handle the swinging rides at amusement parks will be fine!
5歳105cm15kgの娘を含む親子3人で参加しました。高度は一番高いものを選びました。
娘は高所恐怖症気味で、観覧車は乗りたがるけどダッコちゃんだったり、階段も降りるときに階下が見えると怖がったりと、そろそも泣かずに乗ってくれるか不安でしたが大丈夫でした。
飛んでいる最中は終始真顔でしたが、降りたあと「もう一回!」と言ってたので楽しかったようです。
ボートでの移動もジェットコースターみたいで楽しんでいました。普段、車酔いなどはしませんが飛行機で酔ってしまったので、急遽ABCストアで購入した酔い止め飲んでいきました。
感覚としては、超・景色のよいブランコという感じでした。遊園地の吊り下げブランコ風のアトラクションが乗れる方は大丈夫だと思います!

It was our first experience with snorkeling, and we were a bit anxious, but thanks to the guidance from the staff and their encouragement to look down, we were able to see dolphins multiple times. After that, we moved to a turtle spot, and the boat was two stories high, offering an amazing view from above. My child was thrilled to slide into the sea, and we were able to see turtles as well. There was also canoeing, making it a packed experience. I feel like we were both spiritually and physically rejuvenated. This became a lifelong memory for us. I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises.

There is a zipline base about a 20-minute drive from the reception area, and the views of the mountains and ocean during the journey were already magnificent and amazing. After watching a Japanese explanation video and receiving instructions in English from the staff, we put on our gear and started. The staff were very friendly and accustomed to Japanese tourists, and they occasionally made us laugh with their broken Japanese. Each of the seven ziplines has its own unique length and slope; one even has you sliding backward, and another features a game where you put nuts into a bucket, making it all the more enjoyable. As we got used to it, we were able to let go of our hands while sliding, which felt like flying through the sky and was very pleasant.
受付場所から車で20分ほどのところにジップラインの拠点があり、移動中に見える山々や海の景色がすでに雄大で最高でした。日本語の説明ビデオをみて、スタッフさんから英語で説明を受け装備をつけてスタートします。スタッフさんたちも日本人観光客に慣れていてとても気さくで時々片言の日本語で笑わせてくれました。7本のジップラインそれぞれに長さや傾斜に特徴があり、1本は後ろ向きに滑走したり、1本はナッツをバケツに入れるゲームをしたりと楽しめるように工夫してくれていました。慣れてくると手を離して滑走できるようになり、空を飛んでいるようで気持ちよかったです。

I couldn't get a reservation for the Star of Honolulu, so I booked this one instead. It felt a bit smaller than the Star of Honolulu (the Star of Honolulu has four decks, while the Majestic has three).
I had a meal in the first-floor seating, and while the buffet menu was generally good, I couldn't eat the mushrooms or drink the water. The mushrooms tasted like they were rehydrated from powder and weren't good, and the water had a chlorine smell (the American elderly couple at my table complained about it as well). There was live music on the second floor, which was played over the ship's speakers. It seemed to feature quite a bit of older country music. Songs like "Stand By Me" had everyone on board singing along, creating a nice atmosphere. The third floor was the only open deck.
The fireworks lasted about five minutes, which was a nice way to wrap up the cruise. It seemed like the Star of Honolulu was anchored off Diamond Head the whole time, but this one was cruising around, which was a plus.
スターオブホノルル号の予約が取れず、こちらを予約。スターオブホノルル号より一回り小さい感じでした(スターオブホノルル号は4階、マジェスティック号は3階)。
1階席で食事を取りましたが、ビュッフェのメニューは概ね良かったものの、マッシュルームと水はいただけない。マッシュルームは、粉末を水で戻した感じで美味しくないし、水はカルキ臭い(同席していた米国人老夫婦も文句たらたら)。2階席で生演奏が行われていて、それが艦内放送でずっと流されていました。割と古めのカントリーが多かった感じ。スタンド・バイ・ミーとか、艦内の皆でサビを斉唱するなど、良い雰囲気。3階のみがオープンデッキ。
花火は5分程度でしたが、クルーズの最後の〆として良い感じでした。

I had to wait to board the boat, but during that time, I was able to go to the restroom. It was cloudy at departure, but once we got out to sea, the weather turned nice, which was great. When we arrived at the sandbar, the water was up to my waist, but we had fun playing beach volleyball, and afterwards, we enjoyed delicious hamburgers! It was the best! Everything except alcohol was free, and there were many options, so it might be good for kids as well. After that, we moved on to look for turtles, and luckily, we even saw a manta ray by chance. Then we went snorkeling around the coral, and I got a bit exhausted, but I managed to swim. I got so caught up in the fun that I ended up with a sunburn. Make sure to apply sunscreen regularly (laughs). Yuki, who guided us, explained everything clearly, and the other members were nice too! Thank you very much.

◆ Movie Location Tour
I joined a group led by a Japanese guide named Tastin. The explanations in easy-to-understand Japanese, mixed with jokes, made the tour very enjoyable. Of course, the dynamic scenery is the main attraction, but Tastin's guidance made the tour even more fun.
In front of the Jurassic Park sign, all the guides had dinosaur figures, and they offered two versions of photos: one standing normally in front of the sign and another posing as if being attacked with the figure in the foreground. I had the chance to see other groups taking photos, and it seemed that the quality varied depending on the guide.
Although there was no mention of tips, I had such a great time that I gave a little extra when getting off the bus. I felt it was the most pleasant experience of my stay, and I genuinely wanted to give a tip. This was to express my gratitude for the fun I had and my hope that future participants in the same tour would receive the same quality of guidance. I was the first to get off, so I noticed some people in the back preparing tips as an afterthought. I think it was a good approach to receive service that made me want to tip. I wish there were a way to choose the guide for the tour.
◆ Jungle Tour
There was a Japanese guide, but their voice was too quiet to hear well. When we got off at the location from Jumanji, the guide spoke only in English, and for other languages, there was a laminated A4-sized explanation sheet with photos available on-site. However, there was no explanation that it would be English only at that location, so I thought the Japanese guide would explain again, but there was no explanation at all. If they had at least said it was only in English, I would have gone closer to the English guide to listen. However, the main focus of this tour wasn't the destinations but the dynamic drive on rough roads. The uphill was quite enjoyable, but the thrill of the downhill wild drive had us screaming in excitement. It seems the quality of the experience depended on the driver's skill. The guide was a miss, but the driver was a hit. I tipped each of them, giving the driver a normal amount and the guide a little less.
◆ Lunch Buffet
There was a short 30-minute time before the next tour, so it was a bit rushed. The taste was average, but the meat was delicious. The fruit was also tasty, so I would love to eat a lot of just meat and fruit.
◆ Secret Garden Tour
This tour involved visiting an area where plants are grown, with a slow-driving driver and a Japanese guide. The Japanese guide was Tastin, but the energy was more subdued compared to the movie location tour. There were calm explanations, and we had a review of the explanations from the movie location tour, which I enjoyed.
I rarely get to see fruits in their natural state on trees, so it was educational. I got to taste a little fruit and macadamia nuts, as well as a dip made from taro paste that ancient Hawaiians used to eat with tuna jerky. I noticed that the guide was considerate, engaging with small children to ensure they enjoyed the experience.
Since this is more of a bonus tour, I wouldn't recommend participating in just this one alone. I think it would be enjoyable as part of a package tour.
Thank you very much!
◆映画ロケ地巡り
日本語ガイドのタスティンさんのグループになりました。
わかりやすい日本語の説明で、ジョークも交えつつのガイドはとても楽しかったです。
もちろんダイナミックな風景が一番の売りなのでしょうが、よりタスティンさんのガイドで一層楽しいツアーとなっていました。
ジュラシックパークの看板前ではどのガイドさんも恐竜人形を持っていて、看板前に普通に立って撮るバージョンと、人形を前景にして襲われているようなポーズの2バージョンを撮ってくれます。
他のグループの撮影風景も見る機会がありましたが、ガイドさんによって様々で、当たり外れがあるように感じました。
チップの事は一言も言われませんでしたが、すごく楽しかったのでバスを降りる時ちょっと多めに渡しました。
今回の滞在で一番気持ち良く、しかも払いたいと心から思って渡したと思います。
楽しめたお礼と、今後同じツアーに参加する人にもまた同じクオリティでガイドして欲しいな、という期待も込みです。
一番先に降車したので、後ろで思い出したようにチップの用意をしてる方も居ました。
払いたいと思えるサービスを受けたので、良い方法だったかなと。
ガイドさんを選べるツアーになれば良いのにな、と思います。
◆ジャングルツアー
一応日本語のガイドさんが居ましたが、声が小さく聞こえにくい。
ジュマンジのロケ地で降りた時のガイドは英語のみ、他の言語は写真つきのA4サイズのラミネートした説明書?をその場で見れます。
ただし、ロケ地で降りた時は英語のみとの説明も無かったので、日本語ガイドさんが再度説明してくれるかと思いきや何の説明もない。
せめて英語の説明しかないって言ってくれればもっと英語ガイドさんのそばに行って聞いたのに…。
でも、このツアーのメインはそういった目的地などではなく、荒れた道でのダイナミックなドライブです。
上りも割りと楽しかったですが、下りのスリル満点、ワイルドなドライブはきゃあきゃあと声を上げて楽しみました。
これはドライバーさんの腕で当たり外れがありそうです。
ガイドさんは外れ、ドライバーさんは当たりのツアーでした。
チップはそれぞれに、ドライバーさんへは普通に、ガイドさんへは少なめに渡しました。
◆昼食ブッフェ
次のツアーまで30分という短い時間でバタバタでした。
味は普通かな、お肉はおいしかった。
フルーツもおいしかったので、お肉とフルーツだけをいっぱい食べたいです。
◆シークレットガーデンツアー
植物を育てているエリアを、ゆっくりとした運転のドライバーさんと、日本語のガイドさんとでまわるツアー。
日本語ガイドはタスティンさんでしたが、映画ロケ地ツアーよりテンションは抑え目。落ち着いた解説と、映画ロケ地ツアーでの解説覚えてますか?と復習があり、楽しく聞きました。
木になってる状態の果物はあまり見る機会が無いので勉強になりました。
ちょっとだけ果物やマカダミアナッツを食べたり、昔のハワイ人が食べていたというタロイモのペーストをマグロのジャーキーにディップしたものを頂いたりしました。
小さい子供が楽しめるように話し掛けていたり、気遣いがあったな、と思います。
オマケ的なツアーなので、これだけへの参加はあまりオススメしません。抱き合わせなら楽しめるかな、と思いました。
マハロございます!

As I headed to the meeting point, feeling anxious about whether I would be able to enjoy surfing for the first time, the warm and friendly staff greeted me kindly. The lesson content was detailed and explained clearly, which made me feel at ease. However, since everything was conducted in English, it might be tough for those who don't understand any English... I think it would be fine as long as you can catch a few simple words!
初めてのサーフィンでちゃんとサーフィンが楽しめるか不安に思いながら集合場所へ向かうと、温かみのある雰囲気のスタッフがフレンドリーで親切に対応してくださいました。
レッスン内容も細かく、分かりやすく説明してもらえるので安心でした。
ただ、全て英語での対応なので英語が全くわからない方は辛いかも…簡単な単語を使ってくれるので少しでも聞き取れれば大丈夫だと思います!

It might have been because of the rain, but I felt like, "Where's the sandbar???" There was no white sandy beach anywhere, the sea was murky, and the scenery was the worst.
However, the crew members were very cheerful and kind, which made for a fun time!
雨だったせいもあるけど、サンドバーどこ????って感じで、白い砂浜なんてどこにもなく、海はにごり、景色は最悪でした。
でもクルーのみなさんはとても陽気で優しくておかげで楽しい時間になりました!

Our guide Keola was the best. He provided us with valuable information about the eco system, history about the North Shore and Hawai’i and safety information during the hike.
The area is absolutely stunning. If you want to do something away from the commercial and touristy stuff in Waikiki this is a great way to see Hawai’i in all its beauty.
I would ensure you wear good hiking shoes or trail running shoes. Also this hike is not a leisure walk. You will earn your lunch.
Mahalo Larry for taking the time to leave a testimonial. It is wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Keola - he is one of the best! Yes, our hikes are definitely not leisure nature walks so weʻre glad that you folks were down for an adventure. Take care, safe travels, and we hope to see you again in the islands.
