We had an amazing time. It was a really easy process from boarding and check in to the snorkeling to getting back to the dock. We got to see lots of fish and turtles. Anna and Zane were super helpful in making us feel comfortable especially since this was our first time snorkeling, I would recommend this especially if you are a first timer, we had a great time and really enjoyed every second of it

We had an amazing time on this fireworks tour. It was a great experience and we even got to see some whales unexpectedly which made the whole thing even better. The crew members Annie and Mark were really nice and made it a memorable time for everyone. They were engaging with the guests on the boat and checked in on us throughout the trip. Definitely worth it if you’re in Hawaii and want something fun to do.

The wind was cold, but the sunshine was warm, and the seawater wasn't too cold, so I was able to enjoy the ocean until the end. At the snorkeling and kayaking spots, the staff provided support, so I could enjoy myself with peace of mind. Onboard, there was live music, and we had unlimited donuts and drinks, making it enjoyable even while on the boat.

風は冷たかったですが、日差しは暖かく、海水も冷た過ぎず、最後まで海の中で楽しめました。
シュノーケルの所やカヤックの所には、スタッフがサポートしてくれましたので安心して楽しむことがでしました。
船内では、生演奏の中、ドーナツ・飲み物が飲み放題で、船内にいても楽しめました。

My husband is 65 and I’m almost 60…never even driven an ATV before, and this was SO much fun! I would do it again!! Our guides were great. The UTVs rode crazy well over the rough terrain. It was dusty and dry the day we went-wear the face covering they provide and goggles. The vehicles are easy to drive and the path you follow behind the guide are bumpy and fun. The only thing I was bummed about is that we didn’t get to stop at the yard of bones for a picture. I think we ran a little behind. We needed about 10-15 more mins in our tour. All in all it was great fun, and we’d do it again if we come back to Oahu!

There were staff members who understood Japanese, so it was smooth, and the other staff were also very accommodating, making for a great memory.

日本語がわかるスタッフがいたので、スムーズでしたし、他のスタッフも対応がとても良く、良い思い出になりました。

Kualoa Ranch Movie Location Tour
It was worth going; visiting six movie and drama filming locations was fun. I opted for a tour with transportation included. The price was quite high, but it included a Kaneohe Bay cruise.
The tour took plenty of time, and the lunch buffet was excellent.
The tour of the filming locations for Jurassic Park and the Ocean Voyage tour were all guided in English, and I’m really glad I participated.

クアロア牧場映画ロケ地巡りツアー
行った甲斐があった映画やドラマロケ地6ヶ所めぐり楽しかった。送迎付きツアーにしました。お値段はかなり高かったですが
カネオヘ湾クルーズ付き
たっぷり時間をかけたツアーランチビュッフェも最高でした
ジェラシックパークの撮影地ツアー
＆オーシャンボヤージュのツアー
全て英語でのガイドでしたが
参加して本当に良かったです

Since I had to leave my luggage in a locker for horseback riding, it seems better to have not too much luggage, about the size of two carry-on bags. Renting one locker for a day was $5.

The bus ride to and from can be cold, so it's good to have something like a cardigan to wear for warmth. If you're sensitive to the cold, it might be better to have something thicker like a hoodie.

The horseback riding experience was very pleasant, and the horses were very smart, making it a valuable experience!

There aren't many places to kill time at Kualoa Ranch, so it would be wise to minimize your stay time to match the bus reservation times, allowing you to make the most of your time after returning!

乗馬するのに荷物をロッカーに預けなければならなかったので荷物は手荷物2つ分くらいであまり多くない方が良さそうです。ロッカー1つ1日借りるのに5ドルでした。
行き帰りのバスが寒いので防寒用にカーディガンなど羽織れるものがあると良いです。寒がりの方はパーカーなど厚手のものがあった方が良さそうです。
乗馬体験はとても気持ちよく、お馬さんもとてもお利口で貴重な体験が出来ました！
クアロアランチ内で時間を潰す場所があまりないので行き帰りのバスは予約時間に合わせて最小の滞在時間にした方が帰ってきてからの時間を有効に活用できそうです！

Nice environment and friendly staff. Show was brief and nothing like it has been advertised for. Food in multiple varieties but so crowded and needs to be more organized

Since it was an English driver plan, there were more foreigners than Japanese participants, and all explanations were in English both on the bus and after arriving at Hanauma Bay. Although I barely understood English, I was able to confirm the final pickup location and time, so there were no issues. The driver was different for the outbound and return trips.

Perhaps because of the early pickup, we were likely the first to enter Hanauma Bay. Our return pickup was at 12:30 PM, so we had about five hours of free time at the beach after entering. It was nice that the weather was clear on the day we participated, but I think it would be quite cold if the weather were bad, especially after snorkeling.

I brought snacks with me, but there was a snack corner at the entrance, and when I went to buy more, I found out they only accepted card payments, so I ended up not being able to buy souvenirs or additional snacks. I brought cash for the entrance fee, but I was surprised to find that other places only accepted cards, so it would have been helpful to have that information listed in the items to bring.

Also, the snorkeling goggles that came with the rental kept coming off easily, so that was a downside, which is why I give it four stars. Hanauma Bay was wonderful, with plenty of colorful fish, and I had a lovely half-day there.

英語ドライバーのプランでしたので、参加の方も日本人より外国人の方が多くバスの中で説明も、ハナウマベイに着いてからも英語のみです
英語ほぼわからない私でしたが、最後のピックアップ場所と時間さえ確認できたので問題はありませんでした。運転手さんが行きと帰りで違います
早い時間のお迎えだったからか多分1番にハナウマベイに入れました
帰りのピックアップが12時30分でしたので入場してからしっかり５時間くらいビーチでのフリータイムがありました
私たちが参加した日は晴れていたのでよかったですが、もしも天気が悪い場合はシュノーケルしたあとなどはとても寒いと思います
食べ物などはお菓子など持参していったのですが入場口にスナックコーナーがあったので追加で買いに行ったら、カード決済のみだったため結局お土産も追加のスナックも買えませんでした
入場料は現金でもっていったのですが、まさかの他がカードのみとは知らなかったのでそのあたり持ち物に記載があるとありがたかったです
あとレンタルでついていたシュノーケルのゴーグルがすぐ取れてしまうものだったのでそこだけマイナスの☆4です
ハナウマベイやっぱり色とりどりの魚がたくさんいて素敵な半日が過ごせました

I had previously ridden horses at Kualoa Ranch, and this time I decided to drive a buggy.

It was a nearly two-hour drive. I took turns driving with my child (who is a beginner driver). Only two drivers are allowed to operate the buggy, while the others just ride along. There were guides at various locations where filming took place, and we could take photos.

I found the buggy's accelerator to be far away, making it difficult to press down firmly. Because of this, I ended up leaving too much space between us and was scolded by the guide...

It might be challenging for shorter individuals to drive.

It was quite a thrilling experience. I had fun.

However, you will get covered in sand, so changing clothes is essential. Your face will also get quite sandy, so it might be a good idea to bring body wipes or something similar. After our time at Kualoa Ranch, we first returned to the hotel to take a shower.

以前クアロアランチで馬に乗ったことがあり、今回はバギーを運転する事にしました。

2時間近くのドライブ。子供（ペーパードライバー）と交代で運転しました。
ドライバーは2人までしか運転できなく、後の人は乗っているだけです。
所々でロケ地で使われた場所のガイドがあり、写真もとれます。

私にはバギーのアクセルが遠く、しっかり踏み込むことが困難でした。そのせいで車間距離を開け過ぎてしまいガイドさんに叱られました…

背の低い方はドライバーとしては難しいかもしれません。

中々スリルのある体験ができました。楽しかったです。

ただ体中、砂だらけになりますので着替えは必須です。顔もかなり砂まみれになりますのでボディシートなども用意して行かれた方がいいかもしれません。私達はクアロアランチの後、まずホテルに帰りシャワーを浴びました。

I participated in parasailing starting at 11 o'clock. The guide was a local, but when giving instructions, they spoke simple Japanese like "sit" and "stand," so I think even those who don't understand English can participate in the activity with peace of mind. I chose a height of 120 meters, which was sufficiently high and thrilling. The sky was clear, and the view was amazing. I asked someone who was on the boat with me to take photos from the boat. I also put my phone in a waterproof case with a transparent string and took photos and videos from the sky.

11時からのパラセーリングに参加しました。ガイドさんは現地の方でしたが、指示を出す際は簡単な日本語で「座って」や「立って」と話しかけてくれたので英語が分からない方でも安心してアクティビティに参加できると思います。
高さは120mを選びましたが十分な高さがありスリル満点でした。空は晴れており眺めは最高でした。写真は同乗していた方に頼んで船の上から撮ってもらいました。また自分でも透明の紐付き防水ケースに携帯を入れ空から写真や動画を撮りました。

I think the small number of passengers, just six, contributed to the experience, but we were able to enjoy a long sailing time. The crew was also very friendly. I've also sailed in Ala Moana, but the Hawaiian sailing from Hilton is better.

乗組の客数が、６人と少なかったこともあると思いますが、長い時間セーリングさせてもらえました。
クルーの方も親切でした。
アラモアナの方でもセーリングしたことありますが、ヒルトンの方のハワイアンセーリングが、良いですね

Sightseeing
I was using Uber to get around, but I decided to join a tour for sightseeing in Haleiwa and horseback riding. It turned out to be a great decision. Our guide was Japanese, providing attentive guidance and care that really hit the mark. Thank you, Arai! I wanted to try garlic shrimp in Haleiwa, and I was introduced to a restaurant. It was quite crowded, but thanks to the advance reservation and efficient service, we had plenty of time for sightseeing in Haleiwa. I got a cute Snoopy T-shirt for my grandchild. I do wish I had done a bit more research on Haleiwa beforehand.

Horseback Riding
The horses were very smart. I felt completely at ease; they were so intelligent that I think even kindergarteners could ride them. One downside was the explanation of how to handle the horses for those having lunch. Since the horses are smart, you just need to ride them, but the explanation wasn’t tailored for an elderly lady who didn’t understand English. It was a bit fast-paced! Thanks to our guide Arai, even though I didn’t understand English, I was able to grasp the meaning. It was a local approach of "just get on and get used to it." It wasn’t unpleasant at all, but it did have an American feel to it.

I had a wonderful day. Thank you!

観光
Uberを使いながらの移動をしていましたが、さすがに
ハレイワ観光と乗馬はツアーにしようと考えました。
結果、大正解。
日本人のガイドさんなので、痒いところに手が届くようなガイドと心遣い。
さすがです。アライさん、ありがとう！
ハレイワでガーリックシュリンプを食べたくて、お店を紹介してもらいました。
さすがに大混雑なのですが、前もっての予約と手際良さで、ハレイワの観光時間が十分に取れました。
可愛いスヌーピーのTシャツを孫にゲット。
もう少し、自分でハレイワの下調べをしておけば良かったとは思います。

乗馬
賢い馬さん。なんの心配も入りません。幼稚園児でも乗馬できるのではないかと思うくらいの賢い馬でした。
一つ残念なのは、ランチの方々の馬の扱い方の説明。馬が賢いので、ただ、乗馬してれば、いいのですが、英語がわからないおばさんに対する説明ではありませんでした。早口でした！
そこもガイドのアライさんのおかげで、英語わからずですが、意味が理解できました。「乗って慣れろ」方式の現地の方でした。
決して不快ではないのですが、アメリカン的な感じです。

楽しい1日を過ごせました。
ありがとうございました！

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.

It was heartfelt and awesome....so much history that we need to appreciate

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！

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

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 own tickets and were free to explore on our own. I thought the price was high considering it was just a shuttle service. I felt a bit reluctant 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 best tour to go on in Oahu. Amazing vibes! Amazing live music! Great service! The food was ehhh, 3/10, but you can BYOB and eat before or after! Amazing time. Would highly recommend.

The experience was amazing.
The captain and his helper was polite patient and very fun .
Just make sure to arrive on time

This is our second time with Captain Bob's, and we will definitely return.... We recommend this group because they are very knowledgeable, you get to play on the sandbar, enjoy a great lunch, snorkel around a small reef and they take you to a spot to see many turtles!!!!
Our captains were so helpful with our family members that needed extra help, they were so attentive to their needs and were watching our for them all the time...... They were so friendly and pleasant to be around..... Awesome, fantastic, wonderful, excellent were the words my family of 6 kept saying over and over...... We highly recommend Captain Bob's and will definitely return when we come back to Oahu....

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。
現地に行くまで、レンタカーでも1時間前後かかったので、1日がかり。

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 whole crew was amazing, kind and funny! Spending the day at the sandbar was such an incredible experience and I highly suggest it for anyone looking to spend a fun day in the ocean. Would definitely book this trip again, the live music was also just amazing!

Easy to book and stress free service. We had a good time visiting. Staff were super friendly from front desk, tour to souvenir store.

We enjoyed all aspects of this luau and highly recommend it. The host was phenomenal, as were the dancers. And the food was incredibly tasty.
