Oahu
We participated as a couple in our 50s. Everyone else was either a young couple or a young group, and I was a bit anxious since I'm not great with heights, but I had a lot of fun. We flew for quite a long time, took many photos, and enjoyed taking pictures and videos with each other's smartphones, spending a great time together. I highly recommend it.
私たちは50代の夫婦で参加しました。
一緒になった人は皆若いカップルだったり若いグループで、私は少し高い所が苦手なのでちょっと不安でしたが、とても楽しかったです。
結構長い時間飛んでいて、写真も沢山撮っていただいたし、一緒になった人たちとは順番にお互いのスマホで写真や動画を取り合い楽しい時間を過ごせました。
おすすめです。
Well organised and friendly tour - plenty of time at both the sandbar and the snorkel location. Lunch was great, snorkel equipment provided, highly recommend doing this activity.
From the hostess at the Blue Tent to the boat crew - everyone made the experience enjoyable. Plenty of fish and turtles. Quality snorkeling gear. And finished with a nice relaxing sail around Diamond Head. A definite do again on our next trip. Since we stayed at the Hall Koa, access was a quick walk down the beach. No hassles of finding parking on the busy Waikiki strip.
There were few fish. More than half of the scenery was empty. I felt seasick. Since they don't shine white light on the fish, it was almost a black-and-white world. It was a wedding, so despite having paid a lot of money, my mother whispered, "This is one of the three major disappointments in Hawaii."
魚が少ない。何も無い景色が半分以上。船酔い。魚に白色光を当てないので、ほぼ白黒の世界。結婚式だったので、折角高いお金を払ったのに、母親が「これはハワイ三大ガッカリの1つ」と呟いていました。
The sea has a very shallow coral reef, which may vary depending on the time of day and season. In shallow areas, the coral can be about 50 centimeters deep, and if you're unlucky, you might get injured.
While explanations are available in Japanese, the level of danger is such that it doesn't help much. I was fine, but someone in my group did get hurt.
Additionally, the waves are weak, and beginners who are not used to paddling will find themselves unable to do anything without the instructor pushing their board, leading to a lot of waiting time.
These issues are not the fault of the instructors or the tour office; they are problems with Waikiki Beach itself. If you participate in activities at Waikiki Beach, you might find it difficult to enjoy anything. However, if you go snorkeling, you might be able to see the coral and have some fun.
時間帯や季節によるかもしれませんがかなり遠浅な珊瑚礁のある海です。浅いところは珊瑚が50センチ位な所もあり運悪いと怪我します
その辺は日本語で説明を受けられますが説明を受けてもどうにもならないレベルで危険
私は大丈夫でしたがグループ内で怪我をした方がいました
また波も弱くパドリングになれていない初心者ではインストラクターに板を押してもらわないと何も出来なくて待ち時間ばかりになります
これらはインストラクターやツアー営業所の問題ではなくワイキキビーチの問題です。ワイキキビーチでのアクティビティに参加すると何をやってもダメでしょう
シュノーケリングならばもしかすると珊瑚が見れて楽しいかもしれない
I went with a group of friends and we had a blast! The staff was amazing and explained everything to us. They also reminded everyone of the importance of treating the animals with respect which made us very happy!
Aloha Victoria,
Mahalo for your 5-star review! We're so happy you had a good time and appreciated our respect of the marine wildlife we encounter!
Since we decided to meet on-site, I will head to the venue by 6:30 PM. If you show your reservation screen at the reception, they will guide you. First, we will toast with a welcome drink, then enjoy a buffet while listening to music and watching hula performances. The dining area is right next to the reception, not inside the venue.
I thought it might be fine not to include a meal, but since there will be hula performances during the meal and the people who bring drinks are also part of the show, I think it would be nice to remember their faces for a different kind of enjoyment during the show.
After the meal, we will enter the venue and freely look at the exhibits before heading to the second-floor seating. The seating arrangement is determined by the order of entry. When we went, we were able to sit in the very front of the second floor. It seems that on the first floor, you can watch the show while dining.
The show starts with visuals, upbeat music, and hula dancing. The impersonation show is entirely in English, so if you don't understand English, you might miss some of the fun. However, the Elvis impersonator came to the second floor and even shook hands, making it a vibrant show that I would recommend for those who love glamorous performances and rock music.
Both during the meal and the show, the vibe is very American, so I had the impression that, including us, the Japanese audience might not be fully in sync. However, the dynamic stage with quick changes in costumes and stage impressions kept us entertained throughout the slightly over one-hour show, making for a wonderful and enjoyable night.
現地集合にしたので18時30分までに会場へ向かいます。
受付で予約画面を見せると案内してもらえます。
まずはウエルカムドリンクで乾杯したあとに音楽を聞きながら、フラを見ながらのバイキングです。
食事場所は会場の中ではなく受付のすぐとなりになります。
食事の内容的には付けなくてもいいかなーと思いましたが、食事中にフラを披露したりドリンクを持ってきてくれた人がショーにも出ているので、顔を覚えているとショー中も別な楽しみ方があると思います。
食事のあとは会場内に入り展示品などを自由に見てから2階席へ。入った順番で座る場所が決まります。
私たちの時は2階席の一番前に座ることができました。1階では食事をしながらショーが見れるようです。
ショーは映像と軽快な音楽とフラダンスではじまります。
ものまねショーはすべて英語なので英語がわからないと面白さは若干劣るような気がしますが、2階席までエルビスのそっくりさんが来てくれたり握手をしてくれたりするので華やかなショーやロックが好きな方にはおすすめです。
食事中もショー中もノリがアメリカンなので私たちも含め、日本人はノリ切れてないかなー?という印象でしたが、1時間ちょっとのショーの中で衣装もステージの印象も短時間で変化をさせながら迫力あるステージで最後まで飽きさせない演出はとても素晴らしく楽しい夜を過ごせました。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。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。
I checked the low tide times and made a morning reservation, so the beach was perfectly exposed, and I had a wonderful experience.
During snorkeling, I saw about three sea turtles! They were mostly hiding behind the coral, but when I was playing near the boat, a turtle swam right up to me! It was so close that I was surprised.
The guide was very kind and made an effort to ensure everyone had a good time.
It was a bit chilly before we set off because it was raining. I was really freezing during snorkeling...
Also, I was able to borrow a SUP during my free time, and that was really fun!
干潮時間を調べて午前の予約をしたので
バッチリ砂浜が出てきていてとてもいい経験ができました。
そしてシュノーケル中海亀も3匹ほどいました!!
サンゴに隠れてお尻ばっかり見ていたのですが
船の近くで遊んでいると、
スイスイ近くまで泳いでくる海亀にも出会えました!
あまりにも近すぎてびっくり。
ガイドさんもとても親切な方でみんなが楽しめるように工夫してくださってたと思います^ ^
出発前は雨が降っていたので
少し寒かったです。
シュノーケル中は本当に凍えました、、
あと、自由な時間にSUPを貸してもらえて
これが本当に楽しかったです!
Aloha! Mr./Ms. Tonto. I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed the Heavenly Sea Tour. We also provide wetsuits for the tour. For those who wish to try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), it's available for free. Please feel free to ask our staff on the day of the tour.
アロハ!とんと様。天国の海ツアー満喫して頂けて本当によかったです。
ツアーではウェットスーツもご用意してます。SUPもご希望の方に無料で楽しんで頂いてます。当日は遠慮なくスタッフに声をかけてくださいね。
The staff were interesting and it was fun. Also, the view was amazing. If the weather is good, I think it will be a really great experience. However, I get seasick, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you are prone to it.
スタッフの方が面白い方で楽しかった。また、眺めも最高でした。天気が良ければ、ほんとにいい体験になると思います。ただ船酔いするので、乗り物酔いする方は必ず酔い止めを飲まれた方がいいと思います。
The transportation and guide were in English, but it was at a level that was manageable even for those who are not good at English. They suggested taking photos for a fee and providing the SD card, but if you decline, there’s no pressure to buy, and they explain everything in advance, which is reassuring! You can also choose whether or not to land in the water!
I participated with my parents, who are over 60, and they seemed to enjoy it without fear even at 130 meters. The tip is separate; we gave $40 for the four of us when we got off the boat! Additionally, the pickup for the outbound trip was at a designated location near our accommodation, but for the return, they dropped us off right in front of the hotel. The vehicle for transportation had a case for tips, and I put in some change and about $2.
I am very satisfied.
送迎もガイドも英語でしたが、英語が苦手でも平気なレベルでした。有料で写真を撮ってSDカードごと渡すことができると進められますが、断れば押し売りされることもないし、ちゃんと事前に説明してくれるので安心!着水するかしないかも選べます!
60歳を越えている両親と参加しましたが、130mでも怖くなく楽しかったようです。チップは別で、船を降りる時に4人で$40渡しました!また、送迎は行きの集合は宿泊先近隣の指定された場所でしたが、帰りはホテル前まで送ってくれました。送迎の車にはチップを入れるケースがついてて、小銭と$2ぐらい入れておりました。
大満足です。
It was a nice outing. You can bring your own liquor. The crew was nice. They only offer beer and water, but I think wine would be a nice addition. It was good, especially for the price. Nothing exceptional though.
Being in the middle of the beautiful sea feels amazing! Swimming with sea turtles and fish has become the best memory! Thank you very much.
綺麗な海の真ん中にいる気分は、最高です。!
海亀や魚達と一緒に泳げたのは、最高の思い出になりました!ありがとうございました。
Aloha! We're so happy to hear that you had the best memories! Thank you very much from all of us staff.
アロハ!最高の思い出っおっしゃっていただいて私たちスタッフもとってもHappy!です。
こちらこそありがとうございました。
What I love about this show is its variety performance. It has hula dances, Michael Jackson, Elvis and fire eater. All the performances were very good. I love Elvis. I would have loved to see more hula dances but overall it was good. Also, I wish it was a little longer. We opted for the pre-performance buffet dinner and it was good too. The band was good as well. I highly recommend this show to everyone. It is worth it. It is not the usual luau but it had a las vegas impersonators. My family enjoyed it including my teenage kids. It is for all ages. Very well choreographed. Love that it is inside an indoor theatre.
The difference in cost compared to a taxi was about $10, and I had to wait for over 30 minutes in the heat, so I didn't think it was very cost-effective.
タクシーとの差額も10ドル程でしたし、暑い中30分以上待たされたので、あまりコスパが良いとは思えませんでした。
We were lucky to enjoy the sandbar at low tide (^ - ^). The weather was initially predicted to be rainy, but we were able to see some sunshine and fully enjoy the beautiful sea. The snorkeling was reassuring with thorough explanations, and the barbecue on the boat was delicious. It was great that a turtle came to visit us too! ☆
ちょうど運良く干潮でサンドバー楽しめました(^-^)
天気も始めは雨と言われていましたが晴れ間も見られてとてもきれいな海を満喫できました。
シュノーケリングも丁寧な説明で安心して参加できました。船上バーベキューも美味しかったです。
亀も来てくれて、良かったです☆
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. I'm really glad you enjoyed the sandbar, snorkeling, meals, and the honu! Mahalo! Miwa.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーご参加ありがとうございました。
サンドバー、シュノーケリング、お食事そしてホヌと楽しんで頂けて本当によかったです! Mahalo! Miwa様。
The tour was exciting, and the progress was smooth, making it enjoyable without getting bored! It was a bit cloudy due to the volcanic eruption, but I was satisfied. However, the hamburger for lunch was cold, so I would have preferred to eat it while it was warm.
ツアーの盛り上げ方、進行がスムーズで飽きずに楽しめました!噴火の影響で少し曇ってましたが、満足できました。
ただ、お昼のハンバーガーは冷めていたので
あったかいうちに食べたかったです
It was a sunset tour, but we couldn't see the sunset at all, so it was just a tour to enjoy drinks, which was a bit disappointing... The people who were lively and entertaining were truly wonderful.
サンセットツアーなのに夕日が全く見えなくて、お酒を飲んで楽しむだけのツアーで、少しガッカリしました。。。
盛り上げていた方は、本当に素敵な人達でした。
I thought it would be quite hard, but the guide helped us along the way and talked to us a lot, so it was really fun!! Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, but I definitely think you should have a guide. It became a wonderful memory! Thank you very much!
けっこうハードかなと思ってましたが、途中からガイドさんが助けてくれたり、たくさんんお話してくれたので、すごく楽しかったです!!
あいにく天気は曇り空でしたが、絶対ガイドさんはつけるべきだと思います❀✿すごくいい思い出になりました!ありがとうございました!
Dear Youchin,

My encounter with Presley happened when the café run by my relatives was closing down. I was told I could take as many records as I wanted from the store, and among them was a flashy record featuring Presley in a red aloha shirt, which was from Blue Hawaii. From that point on, I became completely hooked on Presley instead of the Beatles. Even though I traveled to Hawaii every year, I avoided impersonations, but on my family's recommendation, I saw a show for the first time. Presley was, of course, amazing, and some of the dancers reminded me of the times I danced when I was young, creating wonderful memories.
プレスリーとの出会いは、親族の経営する喫茶店が閉店することになり、店で使用していたレコード、好きなだけ持って帰っていいと言われその中に、赤いアロハシャツを着た派手なレコードがあり、それがブルーハワイのプレスリーでした、それからはビートルズではなくプレスリーに完全にはまり込みました、それだけに、毎年ハワイに旅行に行っても、物まねは嫌と避けていましたが、家族のすすめで初めてショウーを見てプレスリーは勿論素晴らしかったし、ダンサー達の何人かは幼い時に踊っていたときを思い出させてくれて、すばらしい思い出になりました。
Thank you very much for attending. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time with us. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。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。
Since it had been a while since my last visit to Honolulu, I decided to relax and not rent a car, so I used the shuttle bus for the first time. It's convenient as it takes you right to the hotel!
久々のホノルルだったので
レンタカーは借りずのんびりステイと思い
初めてのシャトルバスを利用
ホテル前まで着くので便利❗
I used the airport and hotel transfer service for the first time, and it was punctual. I didn't have any particular concerns, so I would like to use it again.
空港とホテルの送迎で、初めて利用しましたが、時間に正確でした。特に不安もなかったので、また利用したいと思います。
I participated in a three-generation family trip! My father had been hoping to see a submarine! I was so moved when I saw it emerge from the sea before diving!! However, once we dove, there were not many fish to see. I was expecting to see a variety of fish, but there was a lot of time spent just looking at the endless seabed, with only occasional fish…
3世代家族旅行で参加しました!
父が希望していた、潜水艦!潜る前に海から現れる姿を見て見たときは、感動しましたー!!
が、いざ潜ると、魚少ないのですね〜
もう少し色々な魚が見られるのかな?と期待していましたが、果てしなく続く海底を眺める時間も多く、たまに魚…という感じでした、汗
It was a cloudy day, but the food was delicious, and I got to encounter sandbars and sea turtles. I was able to take some wonderful photos! I think it's a good idea to check the tide times for that day before going!
雲の多い天気でしたが
ご飯は美味しいかったし
サンドバーやウミガメにも出逢えて
素敵な写真が撮れました!
その日の
潮の時間をしっかり調べて行くのが良いと思います!
Aloha! Thank you for participating in the Heavenly Ocean Tour. It's a shame we couldn't see the wonderful photos of the Big Island! Please come back and visit us again.
アロハ!天国の海ツアーご参加ありとうございました。
ハワイ島様の素敵な写真見れなくて残念! また遊びにきてくださいね。
I went in mid-March, and it was a bit chilly, so there were fewer customers. Thanks to that, I was able to ride the slides, which you can't find in Japan, multiple times! It was just my friend and me, but there were plenty of slides we could ride together, which was great. However, the lockers were quite cramped, even for two people's belongings, so I recommend bringing less luggage!
3月の中旬に行ったのですが、少し肌寒かったこともありお客さんは少なかったです。そのおかげで、日本にはないようなスライダーに何度も乗ることができました!
友達と2人だったのですが、2人で一緒に乗ることができるスライダーもたくさんあったので、良かったと思います。
ただ、ロッカーが大でも2人分の荷物を入れてぎゅうぎゅうだったので、荷物は少なめで行かれることをおすすめします!
The weather on the day was unfortunately cloudy with occasional rain. I headed out to the sea feeling a bit anxious, but we weren't blessed with clear skies, as it drizzled lightly along the way. However, the scenery was beautiful, and it felt really nice.
I wanted to capture the moment as a keepsake, so I requested a photo shoot for an additional $30 (I gave the tip at this time). They took pictures with the plane flying by, and when it was cloudy, they adjusted the location to catch any breaks in the clouds!
Basically, the staff members do not speak Japanese, but they were all bright and friendly! By the way, the boat can sway quite a bit, so if you're worried about motion sickness, it's a good idea to take some medication.
You can bring simple items as your carry-on: a bath towel, sunglasses, a tip, and $30 for the photo request. It can get chilly on the boat, so it's better to bring a rash guard. If you put your smartphone in a waterproof case that you can hang around your neck, you'll be able to take pictures when you go up.
当日の天気が、あいにくの曇り時々雨。
ハラハラしながら海上へ向かったんですが、途中軽く雨が降ったりで快晴には恵まれませんでした。でも、景色も良くてとても気持ち良かったです。
記念として残したかったので、+30ドルで写真撮影もお願いしました。(チップはこの時に渡しました)飛行機が飛んだりしてると一緒に撮ってくれたり、曇りの時は晴れ間があると場所を調整してくれたりして撮ってくれますよ!
基本的にスタッフの方々は日本語は喋れませんが、みんな明るくて親切な方々ばかりでした!
ちなみに、結構船が揺れるので心配な方は酔い止め薬は飲んだ方がいいです!
手荷物は簡単なものでOK。バスタオル1枚、サングラス、チップと、写真をお願いする時は30ドル。船上は寒かったりする事もあるので、ラッシュガードは持って行った方がいいです。
スマホは首から提げる防水タイプのケースに入れておくと、上に上がった時に撮影出来ると思いますよ。
I have used this service several times before, but this time was particularly good. The bus arrived a little before the meeting time, and the guidance was polite. What stood out the most was that the driver was committed to safe driving. I had thought that it was normal for shuttle bus drivers in Hawaii to drive roughly, but this driver was a model of safe driving.
今までにも何回か利用させていただいてますが、今回は特に良かったです。
バスは集合時間より少し前に到着し、案内も丁寧でした。なにより良かったのは、ドライバーが安全運転に徹していたことです。ハワイの送迎バスドライバーは運転が荒っぽくて当たり前と思っていましたが、今回のドライバーさんは、安全運転の見本のような方でした。
I highly recommend this show. It is one of a kind show. It is a luau with Las Vegas flare. I particularly loved Elvis. I wish he could have sang some more songs but it was still a great show. All the performances were outstanding. The band was good too. Also the fire dance was great. My kids enjoyed it. Do not hesitate to watch the show. When I come back to Honolulu I want to watch it again. We had the dinner buffet before the show and the food was great too. It included a free maitai. I also like that it was in an enclosed theatre. Rock a hula, you rock. I would not hesitate to watch it again.
I participated with my wife and our son who just turned four. My wife was worried because there were reviews mentioning that the boat sways, and she tends to get seasick, but we had no problems and enjoyed ourselves completely. However, I think it really depends on the weather and wave conditions, so it might be good to plan while checking the weather forecast. The weather was nice, so we were able to fully enjoy the sunset. There were also some older participants who approached us and spoke to us in simple English, which made for very good memories.
妻と4歳になったばかりの息子と参加。
揺れるという口コミがあり、船酔いしやすい妻は心配していましたが、私達は全く問題なく楽しめました。ただしやはり天候や波の状況によると思うので、天気予報を見ながら計画されるのが良いかと思います。
天気も良かったのでサンセットも十分に満喫できました。年配の参加者も散見され、簡単な英語で話しかけて頂けたりととても良い思い出となりました。
You can see the sea turtles clearly. When you arrive at the sandbar, the sea turtles come close and stay with you the whole time. You can see the sea turtles up close. The BBQ lunch is also very delicious. I highly recommend it.
うみがめがしっかり見えます。サンドバーに到着すると、うみがめがよってきて、滞在している間ずっといてくれます。まじかでウミガメを見れますよ。BBQランチもとてもおいしいです。おすすめです。
Aloha! It seems the sea turtle staff was really enthusiastic that day. Please come back to see the sea turtles again!
アロハ!この日もうみがめスタッフ張り切ったみたいですね〜。
また、うみがめに会いにきてくださいね!!
It was beautifully clear, and the sea was very transparent, with the shallowest area being about calf-deep. The staff member was Japanese and kindly explained the precautions. There was snorkeling equipment available, but I didn't use it because the water was cold. However, I was able to enjoy paddleboarding and other equipment that was available for rent. I was surprised when a friendly turtle came very close to the boat.
きれいに晴れて、海がとても透き通っており、1番浅いところでふくらはぎほど水位がありました。
スタッフさんが日本の方で、親切に注意事項を説明してくれました。
シュノーケルもありましたが、水が冷たくてやりませんでしたが、パドルボートなどの遊具を貸し出して貰えたので楽しむことができました。
仲良しだというカメが船のすぐ近くまで寄ってきてくれたのには驚きました。
Aloha! It seems that the clever turtles really know the staff who come almost every day very well. Moreover, they are very service-oriented. Please come back to see the sea turtles again!
アロハ!賢いカメ達はほぼ毎日やってくるスタッフのことよ〜くわかっているようです。しかもと〜ってもサービス旺盛。
またウミガメに会いにきてくださいね。
