Oahu
The pickup was on time, and I arrived at the airport without any issues. I will continue to use your services. It would be great if you could offer round-trip discounts! (^^;;
時間通りにピックアップいただき問題なく空港に着きました。
これからも料金させていただきます。往復割引とかできたらうれしいですね。(^^;;
This time, I used the shuttle bus between Honolulu Airport and Waikiki again, and both pickups were on time, allowing me to make effective use of my time.
今回もホノルル空港・ワイキキ間送迎バスを利用しましたが、往復ともに時間通りにピックアップしてもらい、時間の有効活用ができました。
I was picked up a little before the scheduled pickup time, and there were no issues during the journey. I was delivered to the terminal at my destination without any problems.
ピックアップ時間の少し前にピックアップしていただき、特に道中も何も問題もなく、目的地のターミナルまで送り届けていただけました。
The shuttle from the airport to my Waikiki hotel was on time and comfortable. Everyone involved was friendly and efficient. The return trip was just as pleasant. The price was quite reasonable . Without a doubt, I would use them again on my next trip.
I had always wanted to experience a helicopter tour, and I finally had the opportunity to board one this time.
The meeting point was at Blue Hawaiian Helicopters in the Honolulu Airport area. I took an Uber from Waikiki, and since the address is registered, I arrived smoothly. The Uber fare fluctuates, but it was about $30-35.
After arriving, I checked in at the counter. Large luggage is not allowed inside, so I stored my bags in lockers or the office and waited with just my smartphone and sunglasses until departure.
Once all the guests in the same time slot gathered, we watched a safety video for about 10 minutes before departure. The safety video not only covered important safety points but also included exciting visuals that captivated my attention. It was entirely in English, but there were Japanese subtitles, so I could grasp the important points clearly.
Fortunately, my flight was piloted by a Japanese pilot named KOJI. Before departure, he asked in Japanese, "Do you have any questions?" which made me feel more at ease.
After watching the video, once we fastened our seatbelts, it was finally time to board the helicopter. Stepping out of the office, we were on the runway of Honolulu Airport! It was thrilling to walk on a runway that is usually off-limits. I could view international flights from a different perspective.
Once on the helicopter, we did a microphone test, and off we went. KOJI mixed English and Japanese in his explanations, so I felt zero anxiety and was able to enjoy the flight. The sensation of floating was incredible, unlike anything I experienced on a plane. We took off from Honolulu Airport with movie music playing in the background.
The first thing visible from the sky was the Ala Moana and Waikiki area. It was a strange experience to look down at the area where I had just stayed and my favorite Ala Moana Beach Park. The ocean around Waikiki was breathtaking! I was constantly amazed by the varying shades of blue in the water.
The helicopter flew over Waikiki and passed above Diamond Head. After that, we reached the popular sandbar, which truly looked stunning, appearing as a bright blue patch in the ocean, just like in the photos.
Before I knew it, the background music had changed to Hawaiian music, and we continued to enjoy the view over Kualoa Ranch and the lush Ko'olau Mountains. I was thrilled when we approached "Saycrad Fall," which can only be seen from a helicopter.
The helicopter kept moving, and we arrived near the North Shore. As I enjoyed the peaceful scenery of sprawling farms and windmills, I spotted the Dole Plantation below. The popular maze is hard to see from above, but viewing it from the sky gave me a better understanding of its layout.
The final part of the course was Pearl Harbor. I could see ships docked, the serious atmosphere, and the battleship Missouri from above. It was striking to realize how Pearl Harbor served as a military base. I was reminded that Hawaii was the starting point of the Pacific War, and I imagined the views seen by Japanese and American pilots. I experienced an unexpected "learning" during the helicopter tour over Pearl Harbor.
KOJI's explanations were clear and lively, and the 50-minute course flew by. While it’s not a budget-friendly tour, I can confidently say it offers an unforgettable experience! I highly recommend the helicopter tour as a once-in-a-lifetime emotional experience!
一度は体験してみたかったヘリ遊覧飛行。機会をいただき、この度、搭乗させていただきました。
集合場所はホノルル空港エリアのBlue Hawaiian Helicopter社です。私はワイキキからUberで向かいましたが、住所登録もされているのでスムーズに到着できました。
Uberの料金はときにより変動していますが、およそ30-35ドル程度でした。
到着後はチェックインカウンターで手続きです。大きな手荷物は持って入れないので、ロッカーや事務所に預かってもらい、スマホやサングラスだけを手元に出発まで待機します。
同時間帯のお客さんが全員揃ったら出発前に10分ほどの安全ビデオを見ます。安全ビデオは、安全に関する点だけでなくワクワクするような映像も散りばめられていて、つい見入ってしまうものでした。
全編英語ですが、日本語の字幕もついているので、大事なポイントはしっかり把握することが可能です。
ラッキーなことに、私のフライトは日本人パイロットのKOJIさんが担当くださいました。
出発前にも日本語で「わからないことはありますか?」など聞いていただけ、より安心感が強まります。
ビデオ視聴後、安全ベルトを装着したら、いよいよヘリコプターへ搭乗です。
事務所を出るとそこはホノルル空港の滑走路!普段は歩けない滑走路の上を歩く機会、テンションが上がります。
国際線の飛行機もいつもと違う視点で眺めることができました。
ヘリコプターに乗ったら機内用のマイクテストをし、いざ出発です。
KOJIさんが英語、日本語を混ぜて説明してくれるので、フライト開始前も不安ゼロで楽しめました。飛行機とは違う浮遊感がたまらないですね。映画音楽をBGMに聞きながら、ホノルル空港を颯爽と飛び立ちます。
上空から1番に見えてくるのはアラモアナ・ワイキキエリア。
さっきまで私が滞在していた地域や、大好きなアラモアナ・ビーチパークを上から眺めるのは不思議な体験でした。
ワイキキの海は絶景ですね!
海の青色がところどころ違っていることもわかり、感動しっぱなしでした。
ヘリコプターはワイキキを超え、ダイヤモンドヘッド上空を通過します。
その先はツアーでも大人気のサンドバー。本当に海のその部分だけ青白く浮かび上がっている情景は、写真の通りで見事でした。
気づけばBGMはハワイアンミュージックに変わっており、続いてクアロア・ランチの上空、コオラウ山脈の緑を眺めていきます。
ヘリコプターでしか見ることができない「Saycrad Fall」に近づいたときは嬉しかったです。
ヘリコプターはどんどん進み、ノースショア付近にたどり着きます。
のどかな農場が広がる光景、風車が並ぶ景色を気持ちよく眺めていると、眼下にドール・プランテーションが。
人気の迷路は、上空から見ないと全貌が見えづらいですね。上から見ることでよく様子がわかりました。
コースの最後は真珠湾です。実際に船が停泊している様子や、ものものしい雰囲気、戦艦ミズーリ等も上から見ることができました。
いかに真珠湾が軍用拠点だったか。自然にできた入り組んだ港湾の特異さにも納得させられました。
ハワイが太平洋戦争の発端だったことを改めて思い出し、日本軍、米軍のパイロットが見た景色を想像します。
思いがけないヘリツアーでの「学び」を、真珠湾上空で感じることができました。
KOJIさんの解説はわかりやすく軽快で、50分コースはあっという間でした。
決してお手頃なツアーではないですが、絶対に外さない感動体験ができる!と確信できるツアーです。
一生に一度の感動体験として、ヘリコプターツアーお勧めです!
Our driver Ruben was great, super friendly and knowledgeable about the island.I would highly recommend the circle Island tour even if you have already done it, you will learn something new every time.
Thanks Ruben!!
We enjoyed Toa Luau so much! Our children, 2 & 4, had a wonderful time as well. The cast/crew are the same people running the activities before the meal, and serving the meal, then putting on a great show - their hard work and enthusiasm is inspiring <3 I noticed their attention to detail in how smoothly the check-in, meal, and all the transitions went. Highly recommend!
awesome experience. wish would have made this top of list after arrival in honolulu. would have found so many more places visit and see at ground level!
We had a great day, our driver Humu was very knowledgeable and kept us entertained getting there and coming back to our pick up place he was right on time overall it was a great experience, didn’t care for the food that was available at pearl harbor , we went to the Arizona memorial I think we should have done both tours the Missouri as well maybe next time.
Quick and easy morning, hotel pick up is easy and going through the park is a lot easier than it seemed before i got hoere
great day of history and reliving the past when walking through the PH grounds.
convenient pick up, easy day around the park, includes arizona tix
It seems to be a lesser-known facility for Japanese tourists, and while it's a bit away from Waikiki Beach, it was a very fulfilling museum. It compactly summarized not only the history of Hawaii but also the history of the volcanoes in the state, making it very educational for museum lovers. I wanted to see the planetarium show "The Hawaiian Sky Tonight," but it was only screened in the morning, so I couldn't catch it. I would like to go again.
日本人観光客にはマイナーな施設のようであり、ワイキキビーチから少し離れていますが、とても充実したミュージアムでした。ハワイの歴史だけでなくハワイ州の火山の歴史についてもコンパクトにまとめられており、ミュージアム好きには大変勉強になりました。プラネタリウムの「The Hawaiian Sky Tonight」も観たかったのですが、午前中のみの上映で観れませんでした。また行きたいです。
Thank you for visiting the Bishop Museum! We also appreciate your warm comments. We apologize for not being able to provide the program you hoped to see at the planetarium. However, we are delighted to hear that you enjoyed both the main exhibit hall and the Science Adventure Center. Please do stop by again when you visit Hawaii! We look forward to seeing you! ALOHA!
ビショップミュージアムへのご来館、ありがとうございました!またこちらへの温かいコメントも頂きましたこと、御礼申し上げます。プラネタリウムはご希望のプログラムをご覧頂けず、申し訳ございませんでした。しかしメインの展示館とサイエンス館、両方の展示をお楽しみ頂けたようで私共も嬉しい限りです。またハワイにお越しの際は是非お立ち寄り下さい!お待ちしております!ALOHA!
They casually approached us, and we were able to start our first overseas trip as a couple in a fun way. The local driver was friendly, and I was very happy that he made an effort to speak in Japanese. Thank you very much.
気軽に声をかけてくださり、初めての夫婦での海外旅行を楽しくスタートすることができました。
現地のドライバーの方はフレンドリーで、頑張って日本語で話してくれたのもとても嬉しかったです。ありがとうございました。
Wow should I start off with the most delicious authentic hawaiian food I have ever tried..My whole family cleaned their plate..Including the dessert was delicious..The show was amazing so worth the cost..The host keep us laughing
I don't want to waste time, so I always use Roberts for airport transfers. Unlike H○S, the waiting time at the airport is really short. This time, the shuttle departed just 15 minutes after I arrived at the pickup point. Sometimes it's a large bus, but this time it was a minivan. Regardless of the size of the vehicle, the number of passengers is usually around 10, which is relatively few. That might be why it's quicker. I will use it again when I'm traveling alone.
時間を無駄にしたくないので、
空港からの送迎はいつもロバーツを利用しています。
H○Sと違い空港での待ち時間が本当に少ないです。
今回もシャトル乗り場に着いてから15分後には発車していました。
大型バスの時もありますが今回はミニバンでした。
車体の大小に関わらず、乗車人数はいつも10名程度で少なめです。だから早いのかもしれません。
一人の時はまた利用します。
I completed the hotel check-out early and, while waiting, they came to pick me up five minutes before the scheduled time, so I arrived at the airport ahead of time. It was very good, and I would like to use it again next time.
The limousine was full with other passengers. A man sitting in the front kept lifting himself off the seat to let people boarding later pass through to the back. I hope the driver, who knows it will be full, can instruct people to fill in from the back to make it easier for those boarding later.
早めにホテルのチェックアウトを済ませ待っていたら5分前に迎えに来てくれたので空港へ早めに着きました とても良かったです 次回も利用したい
相乗りする人でリムジンが満員でした。手前に座った男性がその都度腰を浮かしてシートに立つようにしてあとから乗る人を奥に行かせようとしていた。満員になることを知っているドライバーが奥から詰めて着席するよう指示しないと、あとからの人は乗りにくいので改善してほしい。
Quick easy pick up and drop off, the tour guide does not go in the park with you however!
Lots of new things learned at my stop to the Pearl Harbor grounds! The tour guide as well detailed a lot of useful information to and from the grounds
I arrived a little early at the pickup location, and the driver from Roberts Hawaii greeted me, making for a smooth boarding experience; we were the first passengers. After boarding, we stopped at three or four hotels before heading to the airport, and all the other passengers were foreigners. By the way, on the way from the airport to the hotel, all the passengers were Japanese. The ride to the airport was smooth, and the fare was reasonable, so I definitely want to use this service again.
It mentioned that the fare included a tip, so I didn't give a tip for the ride from the airport to the hotel, but on the return trip, I saw the foreigners giving tips to the driver when they got off at their respective airlines. Seeing this made me think that I didn't need to give a tip when I got off, but I still ended up giving one. It's just a gesture of appreciation for the driver's service.
予約の時間より少し前にピックアップ場所に行くとロバーツハワイのドライバーから声を掛けていただきスムーズ乗車、私たちが最初の客でした。
乗車後3~4ヶ所のホテルを回り空港に向かったのですが他の乗客は全員外人さんでした。ちなみに空港からホテル利用の際は全員日本人でした。
空港到着までスムーズで料金もリーズナブルで是非また利用したいと思います。
料金にチップ込みとありましたので空港からホテルまでの利用ではチップを渡していませんが、帰りは外人さんがそれぞれ利用の航空会社で降りたときドライバーにチップを渡していました。これを見てしまったので自分が下りるときチップを渡たさなくていいと思いながらチップを渡しましたが。これも気持ちです、運転手さんのサービスに感謝です。
I printed the voucher and headed to the reception desk, where the check-in process went smoothly without any issues. At the desk, I installed the QR code for the Japanese guide, and I was informed about the start time of the Japanese guided tour and where to wait. Although all the information was provided in English, it was explained in a way that was easy to understand, even for someone like me who struggles with English.
The Japanese guide was supposed to last 30 minutes, but it ended up being 45 minutes, allowing me to learn about Hawaii's history in an easy-to-understand manner. The exhibits were wonderful and very impressive. In particular, the decorations on the capes and hats used bird feathers, and it was interesting to learn that these birds are already extinct.
I believe the prices from Veltra were probably discounted advance purchase rates, which were much cheaper than the regular prices, and that was a great help. If you're interested in Hawaii's history, I definitely recommend visiting.
バウチャーを印字しいざ受付窓口へ、何の問題もなくスムーズに受付終了、窓口で日本語案内のQRコードをインストール更に日本語ガイドツアーの開始時間や待つ場所を案内されました。すべて英語での案内でしたが英語が苦手の自分でも分かりやすいように説明され助かりました。
日本語での案内は30分間とありましたが、45分間案内されハワイの歴史などわかりやすく勉強することができました。
展示品の素晴らしく見ごたえがありました。特にマントや帽子の飾りに鳥の羽が使われているのですが、この鳥はすでに絶滅してをその理由も興味深かったです。
ベルトラさんの料金は多分前売り料金で正規料金よりだいぶ安かったと思います、助かりました。
ハワイの歴史に興味のある方是非訪れてください。
Thank you for your visit! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the museum. We also appreciate your comments! Please feel free to stop by again if you have the opportunity. Aloha!
今回のご来館、ありがとうございました!ミュージアムをお楽しみ頂けたようでしたらこちらも嬉しい限りです。こちらへのコメントもありがとうございました!また機会がありましたらお立ち寄りください。Aloha!
As soon as I exited the building after clearing immigration in Hawaii, I saw an employee holding a sign for Roberts Hawaii. When I approached them, they guided me to the shuttle pick-up area, and I waited for about 10 minutes without any worries before smoothly boarding the shuttle. I was dropped off very close to the hotel, and the driver kindly informed me that this was the pick-up location for my return shuttle, which made me feel very reassured. I have used Roberts Hawaii's shuttle service several times, and their service is always friendly, so I would like to use them again.
ハワイ入国審査を終え建物を出ると直ぐにロバーツハワイの看板を手にした社員がいたので声をかけると、乗り場に案内してくれ何の不安もなく10分位待っただけでスムーズにシャトルに乗車、ホテル直近で下車しましたが、ドライバーから(帰国する際のシャトル乗車位置はこの場所)と丁寧に案内され、とても安心しました。何回かロバーツハワイの送迎シャトルを利用していますが、対応が親切でまた利用したいと思います。
I was a little worried that they might not come to pick me up since I was running a bit late, but they arrived right on time! They also helped with my luggage and took me right to the front of my airline!
少し時間より遅れていたのでほんとに迎えに来るのか少し心配になりましたがちゃんと来ました!
荷物も入れてくれて、自分の乗る航空会社の前まで送ってくれます!
As soon as I exited the airport, there was a staff member, and when I spoke to them, they told me to go to a specific number. I went there and spoke to another staff member, and I was able to get on the bus right away!
空港を出て直ぐに案内の方がいるので話しかけたら、何番の所へ行ってくださいと言われるのでそこまで行き係の方に話しかけるとすぐにバスに乗れました!
I searched for the meeting place, but there was a person in a yellow shirt, so it wasn't a confusing location. It's a hotel just before Waikiki, so I arrived quickly. I will use it again next time.
待ち合わせ場所を探しましたが黄色いシャツの人がいて迷うような場所ではないです。ワイキキの手前のホテルなのですぐに到着しました。次も使います。
I was flustered because I arrived late, but when I got to the hotel, the driver looked apologetic for being delayed due to traffic. He took me close to the airline counter. Considering the price, I will use this service again.
遅れてきたので焦りましたが、ホテル前に来て、渋滞で遅れたとドライバーはすまなそうにしていました。航空会社のカウンター近くまで運んでくれました。値段を考えると次も利用します。
A fabulous way to travel the whole island and learn about the history and culture. Our guide was local and so knowledgeable and friendly! The views were spectacular!! Communication from the company was easy to follow and navigate. I would highly recommend this company and tour :-)
This was a great tour full of information and great experiences. I would highly recommend this tour to others.
Although it was a less busy time, there were fewer people and hotel visits, allowing me to leave for home feeling relaxed. However, it's obvious that the drivers mostly only speak English, so it's advisable to have at least a basic understanding of English for handling minimal trouble in case of accidents or delays.
空いてる時期だったとは言え、人数もホテル巡回数も少なめで、ゆったりとした気分で帰国の途に着けました。ただ、当たり前なんですが、ドライバーはほぼ英語しか不可なので、事故とか遅れたとかの時の最低限のトラブル対策の英語は出来た方がいいです。
This is my fourth time using the service. Usually, the driver asks which airline we are using, but this time, they just took us to the lobby of our airline without asking anything. It made for a very pleasant experience.
Actually, the hotel pickup was about 10 minutes late, so I was a bit anxious, but in the end, it was all forgotten. Thank you very much.
今回が4回目です。
いつもはドライバーが、どこの航空会社かたずねてましたが
今回は何も聞きもせず我々の利用航空会社のロビーの前に
着けてくれ とても気分よく利用できました。
実はホテルのお迎え時間が10分ほど遅れたので多少不安でしたが
結果帳消しです。
ありがとうございます。
