Oahu
The transportation from the hotel and Pearl Harbor went smooth and did the job as expected.
Meeting points and time schedules were all explained clearly and everything went as planned.
I took my mother to Hawaii for the first time, and we participated in this activity where we could experience a museum, hula lessons, and lei making all at once. I've visited Hawaii many times before, but this place is an amazing hidden gem!!! The historical buildings are impressive, and the exhibits are wonderfully rich and engaging, making it easy to spend an entire day without getting bored. The hula lesson lasted a full hour, and the teacher was very easy to understand. Lei making was also fun, and my mother was very satisfied. I recommend this for both repeat visitors to Hawaii and first-timers!
母を初めてのハワイに連れて行くという事で、博物館・フラレッスン・レイメイキングと一度に体験できるこちらのアクティビティーに参加してみました。
これまで何度も訪れたハワイですが、ここは驚きの穴場!!!
歴史的建造物はすごいですし、陳列も素晴らしく充実していて一日居ても飽きない感じです。
フラレッスンもたっぷり1時間、とても分かりやすく教えてくださる先生で、レイメイキングも楽しく、母も大満足でした。ハワイのリピーターさんにも、初めてさんにもお勧めです!
I took this tour with my 18 year old daughter and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Our pickup was punctual and the tour from beginning to end was informative and entertaining. Although not enough time was spent at any of the sites due to the fact we only had half day tour, our guide made us feel like we learnt a great deal about each place we visited. It is possible to visit Pearl Harbor without a tour and also organise your own entrance to the Arizona memorial on line for a small charge but we felt as if the money we paid for a tour experience was very well spent simply because our guide was so lovely, welcoming and full of wonderful insight and information about Hawaii and the sites we visited.
We stopped at the Royal palace and were able to walk around to take photos. We drove through Punchbowl cemetery with little stories and anecdotes shared by Brayden our lovely guide and then onto Arizona Memorial where we were left to wander around for approximately 1& 1/2 hours.
Overall a great experience!
This was the best way to see Pearl Harbor! Our Driver, Larry, was wonderful... Funny, very knowledgeable, and helpful. I recommend that you purchase the Battleship Missouri ticket with your tour, it was excellent.
Spectacular scenery, blue sky, eighty degrees. What more could you ask? Even a 1 hour hold-up in Waimanolo couldn,t spoil my day.
I previously visited Honolulu from the UK almost 18 years ago. The improvements made at the Visitor Centre have been money well spent. Although I enjoyed the City tour I did think it was a little rushed.
I applied for the deluxe course on behalf of my parents, who are over 60.
As for the meals, while they were considered deluxe from a Japanese palate perspective, they were a bit lacking. However, they had a lot of fun riding canoes, and the bus guide shared various stories along the way. They were very active during the day, so they thought they might be too tired to stay awake for the show, but the fire dance was so impressive that it woke them up! They mentioned it with a laugh.
還暦過ぎの両親の代わりにデラックスコースを申し込みました。
食事は、日本人の味覚からするとデラックスでも、うーん?…だったそうですが、カヌーに乗ったり、バスのガイドさん?も行き掛けに色々な話をしてくれたそうで、とても楽しかったようです。
日中、目一杯活動するのでショーの時間にはもう疲れて眠っちゃうかも、と思ったそうですが、ファイヤーダンスなどがあまりにも迫力があったそうで、目が覚めた!と話しておりました。笑
Driver was fantastic. Got us in early which worked out as the tours were shut due to wind after ours. Had a lot to show us around town as well.
This truly was the best tour ever. Had a little bit of confusion as to where the bus was going to pick us up, but a quick call to customer service cleared everything up.
Can't say enough about Ernal, our tour guide. Super friendly, knowledgeable and over all great guy. During our tour he was teaching us Hawaiian words and very interesting facts about Hawaii. His stories were funny and kept us to schedule.
You really should do this tour!
On time pick up and drop off, great friendly driver(Patrick) well done, very organised trip great value. Recommended.
Enjoyed experience, but don't leave anything on the bus.
Our driver Patrick said it would be OK to leave items on bus during tour, because he would lock up the bus, but failed to tell us that he would go back to the city to return other guests on the shorter tour and return for us later, hence my wife's pink shawl went missing
Not happy wife

This was my third time in Hawaii, but I hadn't been able to go to the Bishop Museum's hula lesson due to scheduling conflicts, so I finally participated for the first time! A famous teacher is currently giving lessons in Japan, so his daughter stepped in as a substitute, and it was a lot of fun. It was a moment where I could truly clear my mind after a long time. There were also plenty of other activities like a Japanese-language tour and lei-making. The staff in charge of Japanese were all wonderful, and I had a great time. However, the location of the bus stop to Waikiki is quite difficult to find, so be careful. Even though I received a map, I made mistakes twice. Make sure to find School Street and take Route 2!
ハワイは3回目だけど、なかなか日程が合わず行けなかったビショップミュージアムのフラレッスンに初参加!有名な先生がいま日本でレッスン中ということで娘さんがピンチヒッターで教えてくださったけど、楽しかった。ひさびさに無心になれたひと時でした。そのほかにも日本語の館内ツアー、レイ作りなど盛りだくさん。日本語担当のかたもみんな素敵で、非常に楽しかったです。ただし、ワイキキへのバス停の位置はかなりわかりにくいので注意。地図をもらったのに2回も間違えました。スクールストリートをうまく見つけて、2番ルートに乗ってください!
This is a great way to learn the history Of what happen in the war! Can't miss going here you learn so much and appreciate all the soldiers who have fought for us and protect our country.
Pearl Harbor was wonderful.
They have added a lot since we were there 35 years ago. Enjoyed it as much today as we did then. Highly recommended for anyone going to Hawaii ,
On the half-day tour of Oahu, we had a fun guide who felt like a friendly neighbor. The staff in the center greeted us with smiles and friendliness. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening Polynesian show. Changing from standard to a petite deluxe package was a success too! 😊
オアフ島半日観光では、近所のおばちゃん感覚の楽しいガイドさん。
センタ内ではフレンドリーに接していただくスタッフの皆さんの笑顔。
夜のポリネシアショーと満喫しました。
スタンダードよりプチ・デラックスに変更したのも成功でした(^^v
We particularly found our guide Ernal Smith to be informative, entertaining and caring with enthusiasm and excellent and expansive knowledge. It was definitely a highlight of our Hawaiian visit.
We both thoroughly enjoyed our helicopter flight. The pilot was very informative and also friendly. We would defiantly recommend your company to our friends and family
Aloha Pauline! Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us. We are so happy you had a great time. Please come back to see us. Mahalo, The Blue Crew!
We toured Pearl harbor and USS Missouri and Patrick was so informative and helpful. He made the experience the best on the island. I would suggest Patrick and Uss Missouri again and again. Thanks Patrick for amazing time!
well organised helpful and informative driver an excursion that should not be missed suitable for all ages
Our tour of the Arizona and other memorials was totally worth the tour. Larry our driver was very informative, thorough and went out of his way to make his guests comfortable. We enjoyed learning about the memorials and surrounding areas. Had we driven ourselves, we would not have known many important aspects of the Island. Highly recommend the tour especially if it's the first time on the Island which it was our first. Kudos to Larry!!
The tour was fantastic! Our driver, Ben, was awesome and so informative. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and learned so much about the Island that we would not have had we driven ourselves. Especially because it was our first tour of the Island, it was totally worth it! Relaxing, beautiful and fun. Kudos to Ben!! Highly recommend it!!
It was a nicely planned trip. Our driver cousin pekelo was very informative. Highly recommendable headstart into ur hawaii trip.
Great tour from our tour guide Ed. You get a good overall view of most of the island. Some of the stops were a little short, but overall an enjoyable day.
Very interesting, loved both the memorial and the Missouri, think it could have been done in less time though
The tour was amazing! Learned a lot of amazing facts from WW2. Also, the bus driver "Marvin" was amazing! Very happy customer.
Awesome experiemce! The food is no that good! Interesting history
The tour began with a punctual pick-up at the pre-specified location. Our driver, Marlon, was very professional, friendly and very knowledgeable! Upon our arrival at the Pearl Harbor, he gave us detailed instructions about the timeline of our visit. He advised on how we could make best use of our time there with visiting the different sites. All went very smoothly!
The tour exceeded my expectations. Would recommend to anyone. The driver was very helpful and arrived on time.
Enjoyed it very much. Wellicht organized, frienly and capable driver/guide.
We stayed in Oahu for a week and it wasn't enough time visit all the placed that I had panned. The helicopter tour was a great way to see the entire island within an hour. The pilot talked about all the major points of the island. Especially looking down the Pearl Harbor was an experience that I never forget.
