ポリネシア カルチャー センター ハワイ最大の伝統ルアウショー!ショーのみまたはビュッフェ・ディナー付きから選べるプラン<送迎付きプランあり>

Experience Hawaii ハワイを体感

Reviewed by: こうめ

It was great to have a bus transfer to the hotel. The location felt quite far (over an hour). Upon arrival, we picked up our tickets and had dinner right away (the restaurant opens at 5 PM). However, there was a long line, and we waited over 30 minutes to get in. The deluxe section didn't seem to have such a long wait. The food was diverse and satisfying.

We had free time until the show started, and since we didn't have much time, we took a few photos around the area before it was time to go. Our seats were upgraded on the bus, and we ended up sitting quite close to the front. Since it was our arrival day in Hawaii, I was feeling sleepy... I hardly remember the first half of the show.

During the break, I noticed some people getting up and rushing down the stairs, and it turned out they were going for ice cream. When I asked the person next to me how much it was, they told me that deluxe guests received a voucher with their ticket. However, since we only had our seats upgraded on the bus, we didn’t have one. Just as I was giving up, the person next to me offered to share their ice cream with us.

Since we had eaten a lot for dinner, one ice cream was just the right size for the two of us (if anything, it was a bit too much), but since it was a kind offer, we enjoyed it. Thanks to the ice cream, I woke up and was able to pay attention during the second half. The show was in English, so I couldn't grasp everything, but I understood the gist of it.

The venue was large, so I felt it would have been more impactful to see it up close. I fell asleep on the bus ride back, and before I knew it, we had arrived at the hotel. There seem to be many areas to explore, so I think it would be better to come during the day (we had too many other activities planned, so we only had the arrival day available, but we still wanted to do this plan).

滞在ホテルまでバス送迎があってよかった。
現地まで結構遠く感じた(1時間越え)
到着したらチケットを受け取り、すぐに夕食。(レストランが17時からOPEN)
しかし長蛇の列。入るのに30分以上待った。デラックスの方はそうでもなさそうだった。
料理は、種類も豊富で満足できた。
ショー開始までは自由時間、そんなに時間が余っているわけでもなかったので、周辺で写真を何枚か撮っていたら、すぐに時間がきた。
席はバスの中でグレードアップし、結構前の方に座れた。
ハワイ到着日ということもあり、睡魔が…。前半の内容はほとんど覚えていない。
休憩時間、何人かが立ち上がり階段を駆け下りていくので、何事かと思ったら、アイスが食べれるみたい。
隣の人に、いくらなんですか?と聞いたら、デラックスの人は、チケットに引換券が付いていると言われた。
けど、バスの中で席だけグレードアップした私たちには、ついておらず、あきらめてたら、隣の人が、私たち半分こするから、一枚どうぞと。
夕食をたくさん食べたので、2人で1つでちょうどよい大きさ(むしろ多すぎなぐらい)けど、せっかく頂いたので、しっかり食べた。
アイスのおかげで目が覚め、後半はしっかり見れた。
言葉が英語なので、しっかり内容はつかめなかったけど、なんとなく分かる感じ。
会場が広いので、やはり近くで見た方が、迫力あると思った。
帰りバスの中で寝てしまったので、あっという間にホテル到着。
エリアがたくさんありそうなので、やはり昼間から来た方がいいと思った(私たちは他のOPを入れすぎて到着日しか空いておらず、それでも行きたかったので、このプランにした)

Oahu North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience - Daytime Tours

Great Location & Great Staff

Reviewed by: Allen & Melissa J.

My wife & I were first timers visiting during a conference. We located this tour on-line and took a gamble sight unseen. This was one of the best parts of our vacation. Our guide, Chris, was very personable and provided tons of information about the North Shore and the agriculture. He took several pictures for us and was very accommodating. Five stars for Chris. We would recommend this for anyone. The scenery is breathtaking. We recommend the sunset ride and request Chris for your guide!

乗馬体験(0.5~2時間) 2歳から参加OKの子供向けコースやサンセット、貸切ランチ付きなど選べるコースで広大な牧場を満喫!<ガンストック牧場/現地集合>

There were some accidents, but アクシデントもありましたが

Reviewed by: 雷太

I experienced horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch twice before, but this time I wanted to see a different view, so I tried the sunset horseback riding at this ranch. It was a small, privately-owned place, which made it easy to talk to the staff. The female guide spoke only English, but she was very kind, and the horses were well-trained, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. There were also privately owned horses at the ranch, and one of the horses we encountered while riding was quite mischievous and fell right in front of us, leaving us in shock. Our guide, who also had a nursing qualification, provided emergency assistance and called an ambulance, while we waited anxiously. I realized that dealing with wild animals comes with such risks.

According to our guide, if the horse's personality doesn't match the rider's skill level, accidents can happen more easily. However, the horses at this ranch were well-behaved and properly trained, so we were able to enjoy the ride without worry until the end. We took in the magnificent scenery and sunset, treating the incident as a lesson, and it turned out to be a fun hour and a half of horseback riding.

乗馬はクアロア牧場で2度程体験しましたが、別の景色を見たいと今回こちらの牧場のサンセット乗馬を体験しました。
個人経営でこじんまりしていたので、話やすかったです。ガイドしてくれた女性は英語しかできませんが、とても優しく、馬もよく慣れていて安心して楽しめました。そこの牧場には個人所有の馬もおり、私たちが乗馬中に出会った馬がやんちゃで、目の前で落馬してしまい、唖然としました。私たちのガイドさんは看護師の資格ももっているとのことで、緊急対応し、救急車を呼んだのですが、その間私たちは緊張の面持ちで待機していました。自然の動物を相手にするのはこういったリスクも伴うものだというのを痛感しました。
ガイドさん曰く、馬の性格と乗り手の技量があっていないと、事故も起きやすいとのこと。しかしここの牧場の馬は、性格もよく、きちんと調教されているとのことで、最後まで安心して楽しめました。雄大な景色とサンセットを見て、アクシデントのことは教訓とし、楽しい1時間半の乗馬でした。

Blissful time 至福の時間

Reviewed by: sugarman

On the left side, just past the Polynesian Cultural Center, there is a sprawling ranch. It feels more like Arizona than Hawaii, with mostly white people around. There happened to be families with small children gathered there since school was out, but most were just doing short horseback riding experiences. We set off under the guidance of Amanda, who moved here from New York about a year and a half ago. The exhilaration of galloping through the hills and forests is something hard to experience in Japan. I quit the Crane Riding Club out of frustration and have been riding at the Aso Dream Land Club for about three years, but that place has a lot of hills. Here, the flat terrain makes for the best galloping. Our 30-minute private lunch included a gigantic sandwich, juice, water, a mountain of fruit, and a box of macadamia chocolates, which was way too much to finish. I took the chocolates as a souvenir. I was a bit worried about not speaking English. If you're a beginner, they won't let you ride on a course that includes galloping. It's self-reported, but you'll need to sign a waiver, so you're responsible in case of an accident.

ポリネシアンカルチャーセンターを過ぎてまもなくの左側に牧場の敷地が広がっている。白人ばかりで、ハワイというよりアリゾナあたりの感じ。たまたま学校が休みで小さな子供連れの家族が群れていたが、ほとんどは短い体験乗馬。NYから1.5年前にやってきたAmandaの案内でいざ出発。丘陵を林を思いっきり駆け抜ける爽快さは日本では味わいにくい。クレイン乗馬クラブを欲求不満でやめ、阿蘇夢大地のクラブで3年ほど乗っているが、あそこは坂が多い。当地は敷地が平坦ゆえ駈足が最高。30分の僕らだけのランチには、特大のサンドイッチ、ジュース、水、山盛りフルーツ、マカデミアチョコ1箱がついていて、到底食べきれない。チョコはおみやげにもらいました。英語ができないとちょっと心配。乗馬未経験者なら駈足なしのコースじゃないと受けてくれません。自己申告だけど免責書類にサインしますから、事故があっても自己責任ね。

絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

Definitely worth a visit! 一度は是非!!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I've always wanted to experience this at least once! Even though I'm over 50 years old... This time, the opportunity came, and I took on the challenge. I'm truly overwhelmed with emotion!

Here's my experience. First, when I arrived at the center, I had to sign multiple "waivers." The content stated, "There will be no compensation for any accidents." In short, it's all on you, no matter what happens. It took some courage to sign this.

Finally, it was my turn to board the Cessna. The experienced instructor helped ease my nerves. The Cessna took off and climbed higher and higher. We were truly above the clouds.

Once we reached the altitude for the drop, the atmosphere in the cabin became tense. I tightened my harness and waited for "that moment." The cabin door opened, and it was finally time to drop!!!

When it was my turn, looking down, I saw the clouds below... Here we go! Falling!!! It's an experience that words can't express. Without a doubt, I was flying through the air.

As the large parachute opened, the speed dropped suddenly, allowing me to take in the view below. The endless blue sea spread out beneath me. It was also breathtaking!

When I safely returned, I felt a great sense of accomplishment. For those who are hesitant, I highly recommend it!

Lastly, I recommend getting the photos and DVD. They are a bit pricey, but they are definitely worth it. When you sign up at the center, each person gets their own dedicated cameraman.

That's my experience!

前から、一度は!経験したいと思っていました。年も50才を過ぎているのですが。。。
そのチャンスが今回来て、初挑戦しました。もう感激の一言です!

私の体験記です。
?まず、センターに着くと、「誓約書」に何枚もサインします。「いかなる事故も一切損害賠償はありません。」と言った内容です。 要は何があっても自己責任です。これにサインするのも根性が必要でした。

?いよいよ順番が回って来てセスナに乗り込みます。でも慣れているインストラクターが緊張を解してくれました。セスナは離陸し、どんどん高度を上げます。本当に雲の上でした。

?落下する高度に達すると機内が一気に緊張感に包まれます。命綱をしっかり締めて ”その時”を待ちます。
機内のスライドが明きいよいよ落下です!!!

?ついに私の番になり、下を見ると雲の上です。。いざ!
 落下!!!
 もう言葉に表せない経験です。間違いなく生身で空を飛んでいます。

?途中、大きなパラシュートが開くと、一気にスピードが落ちる代わりに、眼下の景色を見る余裕が生まれます。
果てしなく青い海が眼下に広がります。これも感動!です。

無事に生還!?した時には大きな達成感もあります。
迷っている方!是非ともお薦めですよ。

最後に、写真とDVDはお薦めです。少し金額は高いのですがその価値は十分あります。センターで申し込むと一人一人に専用のカメラマンが付いてくれます。

以上が私の体験記です。

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

North Shore Shark Dive

Reviewed by: Tok2me64

Considering this is my 2nd submission I will repeat it because it was so fun! I talked my brother into doing this activity with me so when he agreed I was excited. First of all the capt and crew were super cool!! I am a straight out Claustrophobe and was nervous about the snorkel and mask having never used them but after I gained my bearings it was awesome to see we were surrounded by one of earth's most feared predators. There really was nothing to fear but I had been secretly hoping for a Great White drive by but accepted the sharks we were surrounded by. It was phenomonal to be in their domain as spectators. Overall it was a very cool activity that I would definitely recommend to all, minus the fact that after being the first cage down the remaining time was left with me hanging my head over the railing and counting the minutes until our return to shore. What good is dramamine I ask?
Thanks again for the ride.

I recommend experiencing it at least once in a lifetime. 一生に一度は体験することをお勧め

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I had the opportunity to experience skydiving with my wife during our trip to Hawaii, which is something we wouldn't normally do. After about an hour's bus ride from our hotel in Waikiki, we arrived at the center next to the airport.

We were shown a video with poorly spoken Japanese and had to sign a waiver. The waiver was even harder to understand than the video. I understand it was a direct translation, but it was stressful to read and made me a bit anxious.

There was a weight requirement, and since I had been indulging a lot in the past few days, I went to the reception to get weighed. However, none of the staff spoke Japanese. I was surprised that they couldn't understand me, so I had to explain in broken English and was taken to the scale. The scale displayed pounds, which I had never seen before. I was then charged an additional $20 to accommodate my weight, which made me resolve to lose some weight.

After waiting for an hour, I was finally called, fitted with the gear, and received a brief training before boarding the plane. The foreign instructor looked intimidating but kept repeating "exciting" in Japanese, which helped ease the tension.

Before I knew it, we reached an altitude of 14,000 feet. Everyone jumped out one after another, and before I could gather my courage, I was in the air! The wind was intense, but it felt like I was floating rather than falling. Since the ground wasn't getting closer, I couldn't really tell what was happening.

We fell for quite a while before the parachute opened. It felt like it happened so quickly that I finally had time to look around and take in the view. The gear was a bit uncomfortable, but I felt exhilarated. I appreciated the instructor's enthusiasm as he swung us around until we landed.

It was quite a hot day, but it gets pretty cold during the dive, so I recommend wearing long sleeves. It was even chilly during the fall. Finally, I dropped a $20 tip into the box before heading back to Honolulu.

In the end, I spent a decent amount of money, but I think it was much cheaper than doing it in Japan. If you're going to Hawaii, I definitely recommend giving it a try!

スカイダイビングを体験するというか、しようと思う機会はなかなかないので、ハワイ旅行をきっかけに妻と二人で体験してみました。
ワイキキのホテルよりバスで約1時間で、空港隣のセンターに到着。
お世辞にも上手いとは言えない日本語もどきのビデオを見せられ、誓約書にサイン。誓約書はビデオ以上に解読不能。直訳なので仕方ないとは思いますが、読みながらストレスがたまり、ちょっと不安に。
体重の記載があったが、ここ数日の暴飲暴食が気になっていたので、計測しようと受付に行き、日本語で話しかける。
スタッフは誰一人、日本語話せない。えっ?日本語通じないのか?仕方ないので片言の英語で説明し、体重計に連れて行かれる。体重計はポンド表示らしく、見たことない値に。
さらにふくよかな体重を支えるために20$の追加料金を請求される。このとき減量を決意。

そこから待つこと1時間。やっとこ呼ばれて器具を付けられ2~3の講習を受けたのちに飛行機に搭乗。外人インストラクターは見かけは怖いが「ドキドキ」と唯一知っている日本語を連呼して和ませてくれる。
あっと言う間に高度14,000フィートに到着。
あれよあれよと皆が飛び立っていく。覚悟を決めるまもなく私も空中に!
風はとにかくすごいが、落ちているの?という感じ。とにかく地上が近づいてこないため、自分がどうなっているのか良く分らない。
結構長い時間落下し、パラシュートが開く。
飛び立ってからあっという間だったためか、やっと落ち着いて周りを見れるように。
器具が股に挟まってやや痛いが気分は爽快。地上に降り立つまでスイングしてくれたりとサービス精神旺盛のインストラクターに感謝です。

この日は結構暑い日だったんですが、ダイビング中は結構冷えるため、長袖がお勧め。特に落下中は寒いくらいでした。
最後にチップ箱に$20を投函してホノルルへ。

何だかんだでそこそこお金は払いましたが、日本でやるよりはだいぶ安いと思います。ハワイ行くなら是非挑戦を!

Highly recommended! You should definitely participate at least once! オススメ!一度は参加してみるべきです!

Reviewed by: もこっち

Actually, I didn't have high expectations at first, but I'm really glad I went!!

The purpose is to protect the culture, so they primarily have shows featuring students from various regions. I was really surprised, but it was quite authentic.

Rather than going to see glamorous shows like hula, it has a stronger focus on feeling and understanding the culture, so some people might find it boring, but I think it's something everyone should see at least once.

Experiencing unique foods, feeling the traditions of the various Polynesian islands, being moved by the shows, and being overwhelmed by the energy of the students... I truly felt it was worth participating.

If you have the time, I definitely recommend checking it out!

実は、はじめはそんなに期待していなかったのですが、実際行って良かったです!!

文化の保護が目的ということで、基本的に各地域出身の学生さんショーなどをやっています。
すごく驚きましたが、ちゃんと本格的です。

フラとかの華やかなショーなどを見に行くというよりは、もっと文化を感じる・文化を理解するという性格が強いので、人によってはつまらないと感じる人もいるかもしれませんが、一度は見るべきだと思いました。

未体験の食べ物を体験したり、ポリネシアの各島々の伝統を感じたり、ショーに感動したり、学生さんたちのパワーに圧倒されたり…と、本当に参加して良かったと思います。

時間に余裕があればぜひ行ってみてください!

I went tandem skydiving for the first time this time. After some hesitation, I decided to challenge myself from 14,000 feet!

The divers, photographers, and all the staff were cheerful and funny! After a brief lecture, we set off immediately. Before I could even feel scared (in about 15 minutes), we arrived at the drop zone and dove into the beautiful sky of the North Shore without any time to hesitate!!

I experienced a view and excitement like I had never seen before all at once☆ It really gets your adrenaline pumping!

If you are prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must. (It shakes a lot during the parachute descent.)

During our second trip to Hawaii, my husband and I participated in the "GO! Native Luau," which was recommended on alan1.net. It's great that you can easily and enjoyably experience the real Hawaii (Polynesia). Many people, including myself, might think that hula dancing is all the same, but hula varies from island to island in Polynesia, and they guide you to understand these differences well. Some people prefer hula shows held at hotels, but by coming here, you can immerse yourself in Hawaiian culture and lifestyle, try various local dishes, and even paddle a canoe. It's wonderful that the course fee includes meals and offers a variety of free experiences. Although we didn't know much about Hawaii, visiting this place allowed us to feel a deeper connection to Hawaiian culture than we expected. In particular, the "HA: Breath of Life Show" that we saw at the end captivated both of us with its story (be sure to read the simple program written in the pamphlet before the show). I definitely think this is a course you should visit first.

ハワイ2度目の私達夫婦は、alan1.netでお勧めコースになっていた「GO!ネイティブ ルアウ」に参加しました。簡単に楽しく本当のハワイ(ポリネシア)に触れられるところがイイですね。私を含め多くの人はフラダンスは全部一緒だと思っているのではないのでしょうか。ポリネシアの島ごとにフラダンスは違い、またその違いが良く解るように案内しています。ホテル等で行われているフラショーのほうがいいという人もいますが、ここに行けばハワイの文化や生活に触れられる上にロコの食事も数種類は試食できますし、カヌーを漕いだりもできます。とにかくコース料金に食事が付いているうえに無料でいろいろな体験できるのは良いですね。ハワイについてよく解っていない私達でしたが、ここを訪れた事によってハワイ文化を思っていたよりも深く感ずる事が出来ました。特に最後に見た「HA:ブレス・オブ・ライフショー」は、二人とも思わずストーリーにのめり込んでしまいました(ショーの前にパンフレットの中に書かれている簡単なプログラムを読んでみるべし)。是非、最初に行っておきたいコースだと思います。

Once in a lifetime!! 一生に一度は!!

Reviewed by: 20年振りのハワイ

It truly became the best memory!

I thought I should try skydiving at least once in my life, and it really turned out to be an unforgettable experience. As many experienced jumpers say, I never felt that floating sensation like on a roller coaster; until the parachute opened, I was just lying flat in strong winds (but the view was absolutely amazing, unlike anything in my daily life!). Once the parachute opened, even though I was at a considerable altitude, I felt no resistance at all—it was truly a walk in the sky!

This first dive was so wonderful that it made me want to go skydiving again somewhere.

By the way, since I signed up with three friends, we went without a shuttle and drove there with a rental car. Rental cars in Hawaii are very affordable, so if you're comfortable with left-hand driving, it might be better to go on your own to save time.

本当に最高の思い出となりました!

人生一度は、、と思い今回念願のスカイダイビングとなりましたが本当に忘れられない思い出となりました。
経験者はみなさんおっしゃってますが、所謂ジェットコースターのようなふわっと感は一度も感じることなく、パラシュートが開くまではただ強風の上で大の字になっているだけ(でも景色は自分の日常生活から考えられない素晴らしさ!)、パラシュートが開いてからはかなりの高度があるものの何の抵抗も感じることが無く、まさに空中散歩!

絶対にまたスカイダイビングをどこかでやろうと思わせてくれた素敵な1st diveとなりました。

ちなみに友人3名との申込みだった為送迎無しで申込み、レンタカーで行きました。
ハワイはレンタカーが非常に安いので左ハンドル問題無い方はご自身で行かれた方が時間の無駄はないかもしれません。

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

Great Experience - Must Do!!!!

Reviewed by: Shawn Driscoll

Swimming with the sharks was awesome with Hawaii Shark Encounter..... I liked how the boat was smaller so it was our family and 1 other group. We saw at least 15-20 sharks and they swam very close to us. The cage was a good size and you were able to move around freely. It was surreal being under water with the sharks. I would recommend if you have an Iphone to get the case so you can take the iphone under water. We had an old school underwater camera and it was difficult taking pictures with it and holding onto the cage. We will see if any of our pics turned out. In summary highly recommend this activity and Hawaii Shark Encounter was great!!!!

絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

It was amazing! 最高でした!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The refreshing feeling is unbeatable! The instructors were all lively and it was a lot of fun. The foreigner who jumped next to me held up a message written on his palm towards the camera while flying. It looked cool when I watched the recorded video! It was a nice performance! I definitely think you should give it a try.

爽快感がたまらん!
インストラクターの方もノリのいい人ばかりで楽しかったです。

ナイスなパフォーマンスでした!
ぜひやってみてはどうかと思います。

Understood. 納得

Reviewed by: こみちゃーん

The prices were reasonable, and I was impressed by the guide staff's response and thoughtfulness. I was surprised by the bus driver's driving on the way back, but I am grateful for the show that met my expectations. While there were aspects of the strong faith that felt somewhat resistant, the performance did not convey any of that at all, and I was simply overwhelmed. Thank you very much. I appreciate being able to use your services repeatedly and for meeting my expectations.

価格も手頃 ガイドスタッフの対応や心遣いに敬服致しました。
帰りのバスの運転には、びっくりしましたが、期待に答えてくれたショーに感謝です。信仰の強さには何か抵抗を感じさせる面も有りましたが、その様な事を微塵も感じさせないパフォーマンスに,只只圧倒させられました。有難うございました。再三利用させて頂き期待に応えて頂けることにも感謝致します。

Great activity

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My wife and I visited the Polynesian Cultural Center for the first time and enjoyed it immensely. The "Ha, Breath of Life" show was as spectacular as we were told and read about. Our kudo's to our escort Summer. She did a very commendable job.

First experience 初めての体験

Reviewed by: マサト

I was very excited! To be honest, I was a bit scared before doing it, but the instructor was easy to talk to, which helped me relax a little. Since it's a sport that requires personal responsibility, I think it's good to challenge yourself once you've made up your mind! Once you jump, you'll experience wind pressure, scenery, and thrills like you've never felt before. I think running shoes that can be tightened with laces are best. You can't bring a camera, but you can request paid photography. It's an amazing sport overall.

非常に興奮しました!やる前は正直怖かったですが、インストラクターは気軽に話してくれ多少リラックスできます。
あくまで自己責任のスポーツなので覚悟を決めたらチャレンジするのもいいと思います!
飛んだら、今までに感じたことのない風圧・景色・スリルが味わえます。
靴は紐のきつくできるランニングシューズ的なものがいいと思います。カメラは持っていけません。撮影は有料で頼めます。とにかくすごいスポーツです。

It is evolving rapidly. どんどん進化しています

This is my fourth time participating in the deluxe dinner and show at the Polynesian Cultural Center. I have always been taken care of by Alan. I couldn't come to Hawaii for a year due to circumstances, so I was surprised to see that the Polynesian Cultural Center has become even more beautiful, delicious, and kind after about a year.

The support from the Japanese staff has improved compared to before, and the quality of the Polynesian show has significantly increased, allowing me to experience delightful surprises multiple times. I have seen luau shows in various places and islands, but I always find myself returning here.

It's a place that moves me every time I visit. Thank you very much.

ポリネシア文化センターのデラックスディナーとショーの参加はこれで4度目です。いずれもアラン1さんにお世話になっております。昨年1年間は都合でハワイに来れなかったので約1年ぶりのポリネシア文化センターはより美しく、美味しく、親切に様変わりしててびっくりしました。
日本語スタップの対応が以前よりランクアップしておりましたし、ポリネシアショーの内容も質も格段に上がっていて何度もうれしい驚きを体験しました。いろんなところや島でルアウショーを見ていますが、やはりここに帰ってきてしまいます。
何度訪れても感動する場所です。ありがとうございました。

Perfect for beginners to get an overview of Hawaii! 初心者にハワイの概要を知るのに最適!

Reviewed by: sute

We participated with a couple of friends who are beginners, making it a group of four. This is our third time joining, and each time we get to experience a new curriculum. We were able to experience things that are completely different from two years ago. There are so many programs that it's impossible to participate in all of them within this time, but we had a great time.

I'm glad our friends enjoyed it too, and I'm happy we organized this.

初心者の友人夫婦と4人で参加しました。
自分たち夫婦は、今度で3回目の参加ですが、毎回新しいカリキュラムに参加できます。2年前と全く違うことを体験できました。確かにこの時間で全部を参加するのは無理なくらい、多くのカリキュラムがあり、楽しめました。

友人夫婦も喜んでもらえて、企画して良かったです。

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

It was great fun

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Great adventure...We could see many sharks may be 40-50 or even more...
Just be careful and try NOT to eat anything before coming to this activity as there are high chances of you puking after u are done and also u might feel like relaxing the rest of the day ...so donot plan something very important on the same day...

Though very exciting...I personally felt it is little dangerous too...
Staff did assure us the safety and told us they have been doin this since 11 years and not even a single person was hurt by a shark so far....which is gud
