The ATV ride was awesome full of adrenaline. The excitement of going thru the mountain and valleys and still look at the ocean was great. The guys guiding us were cool and friendly. Going through dirt, water and mud rushing thru curves and very cool.

I participated in the luau in November 2023. The fire dance performance was truly spectacular! The powerful dance and unique techniques, along with a large number of male dancers handling fire, made for a very impressive luau!
The location is in the Kapolei area, a bit away from Waikiki, and the luau is held on the grounds of the theme park "Wet 'n' Wild." I visited using a rental car, but there are also paid shuttles available from Waikiki, so if you're feeling uncertain, using the shuttle might be a good option.
The luau starts around the time Wet 'n' Wild closes. Staff dressed in Hawaiian attire greet you at the entrance and place a lei around your neck. Along the way to the venue, you can take commemorative photos before entering the open-air venue. The seating consists of plastic chairs, but they are neatly arranged, and a staff member guides you to your assigned seat.
During the bright hours before all the guests arrive, you can experience Hawaiian culture. I tried making a crown using coconut leaves. It might be fun for families with elementary school children or groups to participate in. There was also a traditional fire-starting demonstration on stage. You can enjoy a friendly atmosphere while waiting for the show to start.
Once all the guests have arrived, the show begins. First, there is a welcome performance by strong male dancers, followed by the meal time. The meal is served buffet-style, and you take food in the order you are seated. Since there were many large guests from the mainland, some menu items were gone by the time I went for seconds... It might be a good idea to take enough food during the first serving.
The staff also provides drinks with the meal. I refrained from alcohol since I was driving, but there are menu items like Mai Tai cocktails that you can only enjoy in Hawaii! If you're coming with a shuttle or with family, I recommend enjoying the exclusive drinks.
After enjoying a hearty meal, it’s finally time for the dance show. By the time the show starts, the sun has set, and the torches on stage create an atmospheric setting. The audience also starts to get excited. The dance show features about eight performers, showcasing not only hula but also Tahitian dance and moody performances, all of which are very engaging.
The highlight of this luau is undoubtedly the fire dance! The number of performers, the intensity, and the main dancer's skills combined to create an overwhelming performance. It ended with a standing ovation and loud applause. If you want to enjoy a show full of excitement, this is definitely a luau you should participate in!
It was incredibly impressive, and I'm glad I participated! Thank you to all the staff!
2023年11月に参加させていただきました。1にも2にもファイヤーダンスが圧巻のパフォーマンス!大迫力のダンスと他に類を見ないような技術の数々、火を扱う男性ダンサーの数も多く、非常に見応えたっぷりのルアウでした!
場所は少々ワイキキから離れたカポレイ地区、テーマパーク「ウェット&ワイルド」の敷地内で実施されているルアウです。私はレンタカーを使って訪問しましたが、ワイキキから有料送迎も出ているので不安な方は送迎利用も良いかもしれません。
ルアウの開始時間はウェット&ワイルドの閉園と近い時間。入口でハワイアンの装いをしたスタッフさんたちが出迎え、1人ずつレイを首にかけててくれます。会場までの道中で記念写真を撮っていただき、オープンエアの会場へ。座席はプラスチックのイスですが、きれいに整頓されており、自分の指定席にスタッフさんが案内してくれました。
お客さんが全員揃うまでの明るい時間帯はハワイアン文化の体験ができます。私はココナッツの葉っぱを使った冠作りに挑戦。小学生連れのご家族やグループで楽しんでみても良いかもしれません。ステージの上では昔ながらの火起こし体験も実施されていました。ショー開始までの時間、和気あいあいとした雰囲気を満喫することができます。
会場にお客さんが揃った頃からショーの開始です。まずは屈強な男性陣によるウェルカムパフォーマンスがあり、そこからお食事タイムへ。食事はブッフェ形式で席に座っている順番に取り分けていく流れです。大柄なアメリカ本土のお客さんが多かったせいか、おかわりを取りに行った頃にはなくなっているメニューもいくつか…1回目のとりわけでしっかりと食べる分は取っておくと良いかもしれませんね。
お食事と共にスタッフさんがドリンクを提供してくれます。私は運転があったのでアルコールは控えましたが、マイタイカクテル等、ハワイでしか飲めないメニューも!送迎つきで来られている方やご家族で来ている場合は、限定ドリンクを楽しむのもお勧めです。
お腹いっぱいまでお食事を楽しんだ後は、いよいよダンスショータイムになります。ショー開始の頃には日も沈んで夜も更けており、ステージ上の松明が世界感を演出。会場に合わせて、客席も盛り上がってきます。ダンスショーは男女8名程度の構成で、フラダンスはもちろん、タヒチアンダンスやムーディーなダンス等、見応えたっぷりの演目が続きます。
このルアウの見どころはなんといってもファイヤーダンス!人数、迫力、メインダンサーの技術など、総合して圧倒的なパフォーマンスでした。最後はスタンディングオベーションで大拍手喝采。とにかく迫力満点のショーを楽しみたい方には、是非参加いただきたいルアウショーでした!
非常に見応えたっぷり、参加して良かったです!
スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました!

The welcome ceremony upon boarding had already ended, and we were just standing at the entrance of the ship.
The space between the seats was narrow, creating a feeling of pressure.
The welcome champagne was only filled halfway, and the glasses were dirty.
I ordered a Mai Tai for my second drink, but it was filled with a lot of ice and very diluted. If you order a drink, I recommend choosing one without ice.
The lobster was delicious, but everything else was not good. The steak, in particular, was rare and seemed like it hadn't been cooked on board. Moreover, even though it was served rare, the menu stated that consuming raw or undercooked meats increases the risk of foodborne illness, which made me question why they would serve it rare.
I made a reservation for Friday to see the Hilton fireworks, but during the fireworks, most passengers rushed to the land side, and despite reserving a window seat, we couldn't see anything. Additionally, people crowded to one side of the ship, causing it to tilt significantly, which was quite scary.
The only positive aspect was the performance of "65 Years of Aloha," where the performers were very energetic and entertaining.
If your goal is to see the fireworks, I think it's more reliable to watch them from land.
Unfortunately, the cost-effectiveness was low.
乗船する際のウエルカムフラは既に終わっており船の入口に立っているだけでした。
席と席の間隔が狭く圧迫感がありました。
ウェルカムシャンパンもグラスの半分も入れてくれません。グラスも汚れていました。
二杯目にマイタイを頼んだのですが氷がたくさん入っておりとても薄かったです。飲み物を頼むなら氷を使わない飲み物がおすすめです。
食事はロブスターは美味しかったのですが、それ以外は良くなかったです。
特にステーキはレアで、船内では調理していないような出来でした。しかもレアで出してきたのにメニューには生や半生の肉類を食べることは食中毒のリスクが高まることをご了承くださいと記載があり、ではなぜレアで提供するのか意味がわからなかったです。
ヒルトンの花火を見るため金曜に予約をしたのですが、花火の時間に乗客のほとんどが陸側に殺到して窓際席を予約したのに全く見られず、しかも船の片方に人が殺到し船がかなり傾き怖かったです。
唯一よかったのは65イヤーズ・オブ・アロハの演出でめちゃくちゃテンションの高い演者がいて楽しめました。
花火目的でしたら陸地から見る方が確実だと思います。
費用対効果は残念ながら低かったです。

I had been curious about the "Waikiki Starlight Luau" for a while, and this time I enjoyed it luxuriously from the Diamond Premium seats.
The venue is located within the Hilton Hawaiian Village, in a building adjacent to the Grand Waikikian. It's very close to the main entrance of the Hawaiian Village, so if you're feeling unsure, just head towards the entrance, and you should see the Starlight Luau sign nearby. I was a bit nervous about finding the venue since it was my first time attending, but there were plenty of signs, so I was able to arrive without getting lost.
The event was set to start at 4:45 PM, so I took my time, but by the time I arrived around 4:35 PM, there was already a long line! The seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, so I recommend arriving a bit early if you're in the Golden Seats. With the Diamond Premium seats, you can enter before the Golden Seats and are guaranteed seats close to the stage, so you don't have to rush too much to secure a good spot.
The weather was beautifully sunny, typical of Hawaii! When the venue first opened, I could enjoy the pleasant blue sky, the Hilton buildings, and a view of Waikiki beach. Being able to enjoy the time from daylight to night is one of the unique pleasures of this luau.
Once inside, I received a lei greeting and took a commemorative photo, then headed to my seat with a Mai Tai in hand! All the seating is communal, so I chatted with guests from the mainland who were sitting nearby while enjoying the welcome music and hula dance on stage.
After a while, when all the guests in the Golden Seats had entered, the showmaster made the opening announcement. First, it was time for dinner, served buffet-style with music. Guests from the Diamond Premium seats lined up first to serve themselves. The quality of the food was exceptional. Everything, from the meat to the bread and salad, was delicious, and I found myself going back for seconds of the mini malasadas and roast beef. It's great to be able to get plenty of vegetables through the salad, especially since they can be lacking during a stay in Hawaii.
You can also order alcoholic drinks with drink tickets, but be prepared to show an ID. Many Japanese people often look younger than those from the mainland, so it's a good idea to keep a copy of your passport handy. Additionally, many staff members circulate around the tables, so if you need help, they are quick to assist. It was nice when they approached me with friendly questions like, "Are you having fun?" which made me feel at ease.
After finishing the meal and as dusk approached, the dance show began. In my session, six dancers performed various tropical dances. The beauty of the women's hula dance was breathtaking. The Tahitian dance, which is not something I usually see, was also powerful and very interesting. During the show, there was a scene celebrating an anniversary, and the atmosphere of everyone enjoying the luau was delightful. Many children from the mainland were participating, and it was adorable to see them dancing with their mothers!
The finale of the dance show featured a fire dance by strong male dancers! The atmosphere became intense as preparations began, and men with torches appeared on the dark stage. Having seen several fire dances in my line of work, I can say that the dancers at the Starlight Luau had impressive techniques! Their performances, including fire manipulation and combinations with each other, created a captivating show that kept my eyes glued to the stage. It was a fantastic performance that was fitting for the grand finale. I was applauding enthusiastically alongside the American guest next to me.
Another great point is the easy access from the center of Waikiki compared to other luaus. If you have time, it might be nice to stroll around the Hilton Waikiki Village before the show. There are plenty of shopping, dining, and café options within the Hilton Waikiki Village to enjoy for a while.
The entire event is c
以前から気になっていた「ワイキキ・スターライト・ルアウ」。今回は贅沢にダイヤモンドプレミアシートで楽しませていただきました。
会場はヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ内、グランドワイキキアンに併設した建物です。ハワイアンビレッジのメインエントランスからすぐ近くですので、不安な方はひとまずハワイアンビレッジのエントランスに向かえば、近くにスターライトルアウの看板が見えるはずです。初めての参加で、会場探しからドキドキしましたが、看板の数も多いので迷うことなく会場まで到着することができました。
16:45から会場とのことでゆっくりしていましたが、私が到着した16:35頃には既に長い列が…!並んだ順に好きな席に座っていくスタイルなので、特にゴールデンシートでご参加の方は少し早めに到着しておくことがお勧めです。ダイヤモンドプレミアムシートの場合は、ゴールデンシートより先に入場ができる他、ステージ間近の席が確約されているので、急ぎすぎなくても良い席を確保できそうでした。
当日はハワイらしい快晴!開場したばかりの頃は気持ちの良い青空とヒルトンの建物群、ワイキキの海も見渡すことができました。明るい時間帯から夜までの時間を楽しめるのは、このルアウならではの醍醐味ですね。
会場に入ってレイグレイーティングと記念撮影をいただき、その後はマイタイを手に持って自席へ!全ての席が相席ですので、近くに座ったアメリカ本土からのお客さんとも会話をしながら、ステージでのウェルカム演奏やフラダンスを楽しみました。
しばらくたってゴールデンシートのお客様も全員が入場した頃から、いよいよショーマスターより開会のアナウンス。まずは音楽とともにお食事タイム、ビュッフェスタイルです。ダイヤモンドプレミアムシートのゲストから順番に並んで取り分けていきます。お食事のクオリティはさすがの一言。お肉もパンもサラダも全て美味しく、ついついミニマラサダやローストビーフをおかわりしてしまう程でした。ハワイ滞在中に不足しがちなお野菜もサラダでたっぷり摂れるのは嬉しいポイントですね。
食事に合わせドリンクチケットでアルコールも頼むことができますが、IDカードの提示を求められることも。。日本人は米国本土の方より若く見える人も多いので、パスポートのコピー等はすぐ出せる場所に持っていると安心です。
また、たくさんのスタッフがテーブルを回ってくれていますので、困ったことはすぐにサポートしてくれます。「楽しんでる?」という風に、向こうから親しげに話しかけてくれることも、気持ちが和らぎ、ありがたいとこでした。
一通りお食事が終わり、夕暮れも進んだころから、ダンスショーが開幕です。私の回では、男女合計6名のダンサーさんにて、様々な南国のダンスを披露してくださいました。特に女性のフラダンスは息を飲む美しさ。普段馴染の少ないタヒチアンダンスも迫力がありとても興味深かったです。
ショーの途中には、アニバーサリーを祝うシーンもあり、会場全体でルアウの時間を満喫している空気が心地よかったです。米国本土から参加しているゲストの子供たちも多く、お母さんたちと一緒にダンスを頑張っている姿は可愛かった~!
ダンスショーのフィナーレは屈強な男性ダンサー陣によるファイヤーダンス!!
直前からものものしい雰囲気で準備が始まり、暗いステージに松明を持った男性たちが登場します。仕事柄これまでもファイヤーダンスはいくつか見てきましたが、スターライトルアウのダンサーさんたちはテクニックが見事!火を舐めるようなパフォーマンス、ダンサー同士のコンビネーション技など、目を離せないショーが繰り広げられ、見入ってしまいました。
ショーの締めくくりにふさわしい素晴らしい演目です。私も隣の米国人と一緒に拍手喝さいでした。
他のルアウに比べて、ワイキキ中心地からアクセスが良いことも嬉しいポイントですね。
時間のある方は、ショーの前にヒルトンワイキキビレッジ内を散策してみるのも良いかもしれません。ショッピングやレストラン、カフェ巡りなどヒルトンワイキキビレッジだけでもしばらく楽しめる施設があります。
なお、全行程が英語で案内されていきますが、丁寧なスタッフたちが親身にサポートしてくれます。またダンスショー自体は言葉を超えたパフォーマンスですので、英語が苦手な方でも十分楽しめるはず!
(一部ショーマスターの話す冗談など、英語ネイティブでないと難しい内容もありましたが、ほとんど不自由は感じませんでした。)
ハワイの風を感じながら参加できること、ヒルトンさんならではのクオリティ、ホスピタリティにも溢れたショーケースでした。
スタッフの皆様、本当にありがとうございました!

I was picked up at a nearby hotel just after 8 AM, and it took about 30 minutes from Honolulu to the harbor. The cruiser was larger than I expected, with around 30 participants and about 10 staff members, but there was still plenty of space.
First, we received various explanations from a staff member who spoke Japanese, and as the cruiser set off, we enjoyed live ukulele music and singing until we arrived at the sandbar. We had three hours of free time, and since we had signed up for the banana boat and bumper tube, we were guided there first. After that, we went snorkeling, but the water was deeper than I thought, reaching up to my waist at 163 cm. However, there were many fish around the coral, and the kids were thrilled. There were also people playing water volleyball, floating on inflatable rings, and others relaxing on the cruiser.
It might have been just that day, but the wind was strong, and the temperature didn't rise, making it quite cold! It was mentioned to bring a bath towel, but we only brought three for five people, thinking we would just dry off quickly. After drying off, we were cold, and the kids were covering their heads with the towels, leaving us parents shivering. Thankfully, they provided warm herbal tea, which helped us get through it. So, for those participating, I recommend bringing something to wear after getting out of the water, even though it might be a bit of a hassle.
All the staff members were friendly and made an effort to understand our limited English, for which we were grateful.
There were ropes marking safe areas in the water, and staff members were stationed around to ensure we could play in a monitored area. The light snacks included several types of donuts, orange juice, water, and herbal tea, and my child loved the donuts so much that they kept asking for more. Additionally, there were two clean restrooms for each gender.
I would love to participate again if I go to Hawaii!
朝8時過ぎに近くのホテルでピックアップして貰い、ホノルルから船乗り場まで30分くらいの感じでした。
思っていたより大きなクルーザーでツアーに参加される人が30人くらいと10人くらいスタッフが居ましたが、それでも随分余裕がありました。
初めに日本語が話せるスタッフに色々な説明を受け、クルーザーが動き出し、ウクレレの生演奏や歌を聴いている間にサンドバーに到着しました。
3時間の自由時間があり、ウチはバナナボートやバンパーチューブを申し込んでいたので先にそちらに案内されました。
それが終わるとシュノーケリングをしたのですが、思っていたより深く163cmの私の股上あたりまで水がありました。でも珊瑚周辺は沢山の魚がおり子供が大喜びしていました。あとは水上バレーや浮き輪で浮いてる人、クルーザー中でゆっくり過ごす人様々でした。
その日はたまたまかと思いますが、風が強く気温も上がらずとにかく寒い!バスタオルは持参と書いてあったのですが、さらっと体を拭くだけかと5人で3枚しか持っていかなかったので体を吹いたあとは寒くて子供たちがバスタオルを頭から被っていたので親の私たち寒くて震えていましたが、暖かいハーブティーを用意してくれ何とかしのげました。
なので、参加される方は荷物になりますが、海から出たあと羽織れるものを持参される方がよいかと思います。
スタッフの方は皆フレンドリーで英語の拙い私たちの英語も理解しようとしてくださり感謝でした。
海の中でも行っても良い場所までロープが張られ、あちこちにスタッフの方が立って下さっており目が行き届く所で遊ぶ感じになっていました。
軽食はドーナツ数種類、オレンジジュース、水、ハーブティーでしたが、子供がこのドーナツを気に入り何度もお代わりしていたくらいでした。
あと、トイレも男女別で2つずつ用意されており綺麗でした。
またハワイに行ったらまた参加したいです
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. Since the weather can change and it can feel chilly after coming out of the sea, we recommend bringing something to wear, as you mentioned, Mikan. We look forward to your participation when you visit Hawaii again. Best regards, the KBOS staff.
この度はツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。天気が崩れたり風が吹いていると海から上がられた後に肌寒さを感じられることが多いため、Mikan様がおっしゃったように羽織れるものをご持参頂くとよろしいかと思います。またハワイへお越しの際には是非、ご参加お待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同

At the 5-star level, we were able to enjoy a leisurely meal while listening to piano performances and jazz on the upper floor.
The 3-star level (on the lower floor) had lively and fun music, so I might sign up for that next time!
The food was good.

The most memorable part of this dinner cruise was being able to enjoy the sunset in Honolulu without any obstruction from buildings, all in a wonderfully fun environment on the water.
The delicious course dinner, the recommended cocktails, and listening to a professional singer accompanied by a piano performance while watching the sunset was just fantastic!
Additionally, it seemed that there were many Japanese guests, and the local staff were accustomed to serving Japanese customers, which made our dinner cruise enjoyable and hassle-free.
However, there was one concern. That was seasickness. The ship didn't sway much, and I was fine, but my wife got seasick and seemed to have little appetite during the first half and middle of dinner. After stepping outside to get some fresh sea air, she started to feel better, and from there, we were able to enjoy dinner.
For those who want to experience a dinner cruise and are aware that they are prone to motion sickness, I strongly recommend taking anti-nausea medication beforehand. A special memory of your Hawaii trip could turn into an unpleasant one...
In conclusion, we took this dinner cruise on the last night of our Hawaii trip and were able to create the best memories of our time there. If you're on the fence about it, I definitely recommend participating in this tour!
今回のディナークルーズに参加して、一番思い出に残ったことは、ホノルルの夕焼けを他の建物の邪魔なく、すごい楽しい環境で海の上から見れたことです。
美味しいコースディナーを食べ、オススメのカクテルを頂き、プロのピアノ演奏に合わせてプロの歌手の歌を聞きながらの夕焼けは最高でした!
また、日本人のお客も多いのか、現地の従業員の方も日本人対応に慣れており、特に不便なく楽しくクルーズディナーを終えることができました。
しかし、1つ気がかりだった点があります。それは、船酔いです。
船内は大した揺れもなく、私は何事もなかったのですが、妻が船酔いしてしまい、ディナーの前半、中盤は食欲がなさそうでした。
船外にでて海風に当たってから調子が良くなり、そこからディナーを楽しむことができました。
これから、ディナークルーズを体験したいと思う方で、車酔いや船酔いしやすいと自覚がある方は、事前に酔い止めを飲んでおく事を強くオススメします。せっかくの特別なハワイ旅行の思い出が嫌な思い出になるかもしれないので...
最後になりますが、
私達はこのクルーズディナーをハワイ旅行の最後の夜に行き、ハワイでの最高の思い出を作ることができました。
迷っている方は、ぜひこのツアーに参加することをオススメします!

It felt just like the other reviews said.
It was more of a shuttle service to the hotel rather than a tour. Since it was completely in English, I think only those who can speak English would enjoy it. When we arrived at the entrance of Hanauma Bay, the guide left, and we had to buy our tickets ourselves and were free to explore on our own. I thought the price was high for just a shuttle service. I felt a bit hesitant to pay a tip on top of that.
There was also a place to rent snorkeling gear inside Hanauma Bay, so honestly, I think it would be best to rent a car and go there on your own.
Hanauma Bay itself was amazing, and I would love to go again if I have the chance! I highly recommend it!
他の口コミ通りという感じでした。
ツアーというよりはホテルまでの送迎のみでした。完全英語対応だったので英語ができる方しか楽しめないと思います。
ハナウマ湾入口に着くとガイドは帰ってしまい自分でチケット購入し、自由行動という感じでした。
送迎のみの割には値段が高いと思いました。そこにチップを払うのは少し抵抗がありました。
ハナウマ湾の中にシュノーケルセットをレンタルできる場所もあったので正直自分でレンタカーして行くのが1番かと思いました。
ハナウマ湾自体は最高でまた機会があれば行きたいと思いました!!おすすめです!

We participated in ziplining and ATV riding for the first time, with two adults.
We checked in at the Coral Crater reception 15 minutes early. There are lockers available for our belongings, which we used. The operation is via a touch panel, and since there is a Japanese language option, it was easy to use. The locker fees vary depending on the size, and payment can be made by credit card.
First, we did the zipline. The instructions for putting on the equipment were all in English, but they showed us a video in Japanese, so we were able to manage. Additionally, the instructors were there to help, so there were no issues. The first line was nerve-wracking, but the next two were a lot of fun. I felt like three lines weren't enough.
Next was the ATV riding. The operation instructions were also all in English, but since you only use the accelerator and brake, it was simple.
They provide goggles for your eyes, and I wore a face cover that I brought for my mouth and nose. It was a lot of fun driving on paths that you can't experience on regular roads, with ups and downs and puddles. You can also switch drivers during the ride. Of course, my clothes got covered in sand and mud, but there are free shower booths available, so I was able to quickly take a shower and change before our pickup. There were no shampoos or anything like that; it was a simple outdoor shower with a door.
Since you will get dirty, I recommend wearing clothes that you don't mind getting stained.
There is also a gift shop where you can buy some souvenirs.
I would love to enjoy ziplining and ATV riding again if I have the chance.
初めてのジップラインと四輪バギー、大人2名で参加しました。
コーラルクレーターの受付に15分前にチェックインしました。荷物はロッカーがあるので利用しました。操作はタッチパネルで、日本語選択があるので簡単にできました。ロッカー料金は大きさによって違います。支払いはクレジットカードも利用できます。
まずはジップラインをします。装備品の装着の説明はすべて英語でしたが、日本語の動画を見せてくれるので対応できました。また、インストラクターも手伝ってくれるので問題ありません。
最初がドキドキでしたが、あとの2本は楽しくできました。3本じゃ物足りないような気もしました。
次に四輪バギーです。
こちらも操作方法はすべて英語でしたが、アクセルとブレーキしか使わないので簡単です。
目はゴーグルの貸し出しがあるので、それを装着し口と鼻は持参したフェイスカバーを装着しました。
登り下り、水たまりなどなど、普通の道路では体験できない道でとても楽しかったです。
途中で運転手も交代できます。
もちろん服は砂だらけ、泥が跳ねたりと汚れだらけになりましたが、無料のシャワーブースがあるので、お迎えがくるまでの間にさっとシャワーを浴びて着替えることができました。シャンプーとかはないです。屋外シャワーに扉がついている簡易的なものでした。
とにかく汚れるので服は汚れてもいいものをおすすめします。
ギフトショップもあるので、ちょっとしたお土産も買えます。
また機会があればジップラインと四輪バギー楽しみたいです。

The zipline experience with breathtaking views from various directions in Hawaii is unforgettable. It took about an hour by rental car to get there, making it a full-day activity.
Since rain can ruin the fun, I feel it's safer to make a reservation about a week in advance after checking the weather forecast.
The instructor was lively and kept us entertained throughout the experience.
ハワイのいろんな方角の絶景を見ながらのジップラインは、記憶に残ります。

雨が降ると楽しめないので、予約は、1週間前くらいに天気予報が出てからが安心な気がします。
インストラクターのノリがよく、随所で楽しませてくれます。

The wind felt a bit cold, but the weather was nice and the sea was crystal clear—it was the best! Although we only spoke Japanese, the staff were very kind and made us feel at ease!
風が少し寒く感じましたが天気も良く海も透き通ってて最高でした!
日本語しか話せない私達でしたがスタッフのみなさんも凄く親切で安心できました!

I experienced a package that included parasailing, banana boating, and bumper tubing. Since there were staff members who spoke Japanese, I felt comfortable enjoying the activities.
It costs about $50 by taxi from Waikiki. You can also get there by The BUS.
If you check in online beforehand, the reception process is easier (you will receive an email). You can also do it on the day of.
My belongings were always close to me, so there were no issues. A waterproof phone case is essential.
During the banana boat and bumper tubing, a lot of seawater gets in your eyes and mouth, so it's better to have water and goggles on hand. Goggles can be rented on-site for $10, and they accept both card and cash. I endured falling off, so my arms were sore the next day, haha.
If you are prone to motion sickness while parasailing, it's advisable to take motion sickness medication. The waiting boat was quite rocky. I chose the 150m option, and the views and exhilaration were fantastic.
After the activities, changing facilities are in the reception building's restrooms (two unisex stalls).
I tipped while on the boat and also gave a direct tip to the staff who made the experience enjoyable.
All activities come with a GoPro, so don't forget to strike a pose and capture some action shots! You can check the photos and videos later, and having good camera angles might increase your desire to purchase them.
I've summarized the information I wanted to know, so I hope it helps you.
パラセーリング、 バナナボート、バンパーチューブが楽しめるパッケージを今回体験しました。
日本語を話せるスタッフでしたので安心して楽しめました。
ワイキキからタクシーで50ドルくらいです。
The BUSでも行けます。
先にOn-line check in をしておくと受付が楽です。(メールがきます)
しなくても当日出来ます。
荷物は常に自分の近くにあるので問題なかったです。
防水の携帯ケースは必須ですね。
バナナボートとバンパーチューブは目と口に海水が結構はいるので、水などは手持ちでゴーグルもあった方がいいです。
ゴーグルは現地で10ドルでレンタル出来ます。カードでも現金でも対応してました。
落ちるのを我慢するので翌日から腕が筋肉痛に 笑
パラセーリングする方で酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだ方がいいです。
沖で待機するボートも結構揺れました。
オプションの150mにしましたが景色も爽快感も最高でした。
終わった後の着替えは受付の建物の中のトイレ(男女兼用2室)になります。
チップは船の上で払いつつ、楽しましてくれたスタッフには直接渡す事もしました。
全てのアクティビティにGo Proが付いてるのでみんなでカメラ目線やアクションも忘れずに!!
後で写真と動画を確認するのでカメラ目線があれば購入意欲も湧くかと思います。
自分が知りたかった事を纏めましたので参考にしてもらえればと思います。

The pickup time for the hotel was about 10 minutes late, and at the meeting point, there was only a Korean couple besides us. They confirmed in broken English whether we were users of the Hanauma Bay shuttle service, which eased our anxiety a bit. After that, we were able to communicate with the Korean couple and had a valuable experience.
This was my fourth time at Hanauma Bay, and the restrictions are becoming stricter. The first time, the entrance fee was the only cost, but starting from the second visit, there was one day a week when the bay was closed, and from the third visit, it became two days a week. This time, I was surprised to find that it was completely reservation-only.
ホテルへのピックアップ時間が10分位遅れ、集合場所には私たち以外は韓国人夫婦でしたが、拙い英語でハナウマ湾シャトルサービスの利用者であるかの確認をし、少し不安が和らぎました。その後韓国人夫婦とコミュニケーションがはかれて貴重な体験が出来ました。
ハナウマ湾は、今回が4回目でだんだん制限が厳しくなりました。
最初の時は、入場料だけで2回目からは週1日休場日ができ3回目からは週2日休場になり、今回からは完全予約制でびっくりしました。

I was able to fully immerse myself in the world of Jurassic Park. If you have a Japanese driver's license, anyone can drive! There are a couple of water spots in the first half and three in the second half, and if you step on the gas, you'll get as wet as if you were on a rapid slide, which is fantastic (laughs). If you're alternating driving with someone, you can switch every time you stop at a viewpoint, so both of you can experience it. Your face, hair, and clothes will definitely get dirty from the dust (and water), so if you're concerned, it might be a good idea to bring wet wipes or a change of clothes. The restrooms were clean! The instructor spoke English, and there was also one Japanese staff member, so it's reassuring! This time we used a buggy, but next time I want to try horseback riding and zip-lining as well.
ジュラシックパークの世界観にどっぷりハマることができました日本の免許を持っていけば誰でも運転できます️前半に一箇所、後半に三箇所ほどウォータースポット(水たまり?)があって、全力でアクセルを踏み込めば、急流滑りくらい濡れますが最高です(笑)ふたりで交互に運転するなら、ビュースポットで降りるたびに交代すればどちらも体験できます顔や髪、服は砂埃(と、水)でちゃんと汚れるので、気になる方はウェットティッシュや着替えを持っていくのがいいかもです。トイレは綺麗でした!インストラクターの方は英語話者の方ですが、お一人日本人の職員さんもおられるので安心です!今回はバギーでしたが、次回は乗馬やジップラインも体験してみたいです

It was truly like Jurassic Park.
There were various facilities in the ranch that I believe were used for filming the movie, and it brought back memories of Jurassic Park.
I had a valuable experience riding a four-wheeler through the ranch for almost an hour. I would like to visit again on another occasion.
ほんとうにジュラシックパークでした。
牧場内にはいろいろ映画の撮影に使われたと思う施設があり、ジュラシックパークの映画がよみがえってきました。
約1時間弱四輪バギーで牧場内を駆け抜けて貴重な体験をさせていただきました。またの機会にもう一度訪れたいと思います。

I participated at my husband's suggestion, and I truly think it was worth going! However, you will definitely get your face and clothes covered in dirt, so it's best to bring clothes you don't mind throwing away and some wet wipes.

Meet at the location with a rental car. The parking lot is quite full and tight. After check-in, you have free time until the meeting time. After gathering, a summary of precautions is provided in a Japanese video.
Get on the Kawasaki off-road buggy and off we go. We proceed along a relatively well-maintained road, park at the first detour spot, and receive an explanation (in English). After this, we navigate up and down the road, stopping at about three points while squealing with excitement on our way to the final destination. Your face and clothes will get covered in sand, so it's advisable to cover your mouth with a bandana.

This was my second time on the sunset dinner cruise. It was truly a wonderful show, no matter how many times I see it.
However, I had requested a surprise cake for my family's birthday, and unfortunately, the staff forgot to bring it out... (I understand they were busy).
In the end, they brought it out just as the cruise was ending, but we couldn't eat it and had to take it home. Given the high temperature, the cream melted, and it ended up being ruined. It became a memorable experience, but not in a good way.

何度見ても本当に素晴らしいショーでした。
ただ、家族のバースデーのためにサプライズで頼んでおいたケーキをスタッフの方がまさかの出し忘れ・・・(忙しいのは分かりますが)
結局終わり掛けに出してくれたのですが、食べれず持ち帰ることになり、気温も高いことからクリームは解けるはで結局台無しになってしまいました。
悪い意味で思い出になりました。
