Amazing time. Everything was explained right!! Would definitely recommend

I have to admit that this being my first time snorkeling, I had never been so scared and nervous in my WHOLE life!!

Zola, our instructor, was extremely patient and caring throughout the entire experience. Even through I had to concentrate extremely hard with breathing and using my flippers, I was SO proud of myself and I couldn't have done it without him.

Ask for Zola for the snorkeling tour, you wont' be sorry. You will be in terrific hands!

It was our first scuba dive experience and we could not have had a better time!
All thanks to our instructor, Zola, he was super helpful from diving safety to the techniques and made us enjoy every second of the dive.
We want to point out and send a special thanks to Zola on how patient he was. He made sure I was comfortable in the water, since I was a bit scared at first, still getting used to the equipment and picking up the new breathing pattern.
We'll definitely do it again!

Super fun experience! Very romantic even with a baby. I live on the island and want to do that again!

My wife and I loved the experience. The crew was fun and friendly, making you feel safe and comfortable from the moment you meet.

I really enjoyed the buffet before the show! The hula dance during the buffet was entertaining and got me excited before the show even started. I was also allowed to take photos during the show, and I was able to take pictures with the performers at the end, which made for great memories. It was amazing!

ショーの前のビュッフェもとても楽しめました！
ビュッフェ中にフラダンスで楽しませて下さって、ショーが始まる前からワクワクできました。
ショー中も写真を撮っていいとのことと、最後に出演されていた方と写真も撮れていい思い出になりました。最高でした！

I used the hotel to the airport on my return day. There was a parade in Waikiki that day, and I had to wait for over 30 minutes, which made me anxious about whether I would make it in time.

帰国日ホテルから空港まで利用しました。
当日はワイキキでパレードがあったこともありますが30分以上待ち、間に合うかハラハラしました。

My now fiancé loves mermaids. So I knew she would love to do this. She absolutely loved swimming with the tail on and the photo shoot we did was absolutely hilarious. If you’re a guy, you will probably have to swallow some ego here but it’s worth it. Ricki the instructor is amazing. We swam and then I popped the question overlooking diamond head. Great for all ages.

After arriving in Honolulu, we had some time before the afternoon check-in at the condominium, so we chose to stop by Ala Moana Center for some shopping reconnaissance. The lounge was very convenient as they stored our family's four suitcases. It was just before the COVID-19 outbreak, so there were fewer tourists, allowing us to relax comfortably. We had lunch at the food court in the center and coincidentally got to see a hula dance performance, which really got us into the Honolulu spirit from day one. The friendly lounge staff and the cheerful shuttle bus driver were also highlights. I highly recommend it!

ホノルル到着後、コンドミニアムの午後のチェックインタイムまで時間が空くので、ショッピングの下見も兼ねて、アラモアナ・センターへ立ち寄るコースを選択しました。ラウンジでは家族4名のスーツケースを預かって頂け、とても便利。ちょうどコロナ感染拡大前で旅行客が減少してきたころだったので、ゆったり過ごさせて頂きました。センターのフードコートで昼食を取り、偶然センター内のフラダンスステージも見学できたので、初日からホノルル気分が盛り上がりました。フレンドリーなラウンジ係員の方、シャトルバスの陽気なドライバーさんもポイントが高かったです。お薦めです！

After arriving at the airport, I was able to go through immigration smoothly, so I arrived at the meeting point early. Since there was some waiting time until the bus arrived, it would have been even better if that waiting time had been a little shorter. It was good for the price.

空港到着後スムーズに入国ができたため
早めに出迎え場所に到着　
そこでバスが到着するまで待ち時間があったため
その待ち時間がもう少しであれば
より一層よい。価格の割にはＧＯＯＤでした。

Since check-in at the hotel was after 3 PM, I stopped by the lounge at Ala Moana Center, where I was able to leave my luggage and wander around for about three hours without any bags, which made me feel like I gained an extra day. The KCC Farmers Market on Saturday was suddenly canceled due to the COVID-19 situation, but aside from that, I had a fun eight days shopping and exploring. I've been here about seven times since my honeymoon 40 years ago, but this time I spent my time using TheBus and walking instead of renting a car. On the way back, I also used the shuttle service to the airport.

ホテルのチェエクインが15時以降だったので、途中のアラモアナ・センターのラウンジに立ち寄り荷物を預けて手ぶらで３時間位ブラブラ出来たので１日得したような気がしました。土曜日のKCCファーマーズマーケットは新型コロナウイルス騒ぎで突如中止でしたが、それ以外は買い物などで楽しい８日間を過ごせました。４０年前の新婚旅行以来７回ほど来ていますが、今回はレンタカーを借りずにTheBusと歩きで過ごしました。帰りもシャトルサービスで空港までお世話になりました。

The airport was very crowded the year before last, and I was kept waiting until the last minute for my flight, which was quite nerve-wracking. Last year, I was picked up right in front of the hotel, and the road to the airport was smooth, which was great. I had requested the same service this year, but due to the impact of the coronavirus, it was canceled, and I am very sorry about that. I look forward to your assistance next year as well.

一昨年は　空港がとても混雑して　待たされ　飛行機の搭乗時間　ぎりぎりになり　とても　ハラハラしました　昨年は　ホテルの前まで　迎えに来て下さり　空港までの道も　スムーズで　とても良かったです　また今年も　お願いしていたのですが　コロナウイルスの影響で　キャンセルに　なり　とても申し訳ありませんでした　来年もよろしくお願いします。

There are one-way streets, and I had to go down the same road multiple times, which was inefficient and took a long time to get to the hotel. Please improve the directions a bit more.

一方通行も　ありますが　同じ道を何度も　通ったりで　要領が悪く　ホテルまで　凄く　時間が　かかりました
もう少し　順次よくお願いします

It's just a shuttle service, so there's no conversation, just shared transportation. There's nothing particularly special about it, but I think it's cheaper than taking a taxi.

送迎だけなので何も会話もなく乗合で移動だけです。特に特徴はないけどタクシー代よりは安く行けると思います。

This was my first trip to Hawaii. Since I was there, I thought it would be nice to see a show, so I booked this place based on good reviews.

First, the food. The buffet-style dinner had a wide variety of options, including meat, fish, and cakes, and everything was very delicious. During the meal, they shared stories about history and we were able to watch a simple show.

After dinner, we moved to a room with a stage. Our seats were in the middle of the front row on the second floor, so we had a great view. The show included impersonations, a fire show, and hula dancing.

After the show, we were able to take commemorative photos.

Both the food and the show were amazing!

初めてのハワイ旅行。せっかくなので、ショーを見たいなぁと思い、口コミが良かったこちらを予約しました。

まずは、ご飯。
ビュッフェスタイルの夜ご飯は、肉、魚、ケーキなど種類が多く、どれもとても美味しかったです。
食事中は歴史の話をしてくれたり、簡単なショーを見ることが出来ました。

食事が終わると、ステージがある部屋に移動。
ショーは２階席の１番前の真ん中くらいでしたので、凄く良く見えました。
ショーは、モノマネやファイヤーショー、フラダンスがありました。

ショーが終わると記念写真を撮ることが出来ました。

ご飯もショーも最高でした‼

The staff were so cheerful and wonderful, and the view after parasailing was just amazing! I really shouldn't have been scared! It was too beautiful. I also found something wonderful!

I forgot the name of the staff member, but the charming guy took so many photos for me, so it became a really great memory! It might have been tourist prices, but it was such a fun experience that I bought an SD card!

I really recommend parasailing.

スタッフさん陽気すぎて素敵だし、
パラセイルで上がったあとの景色！ほんと怖がってる場合じゃない！！！！素敵すぎて。にも見つけられました！すてきすぎ！！
あとスタッフのお名前忘れちゃったけど
プレイボーイな彼がめっちゃ写真とってくれたからとてもいい思い出になりました！
観光地価格かもだけど楽しい思い出なのでＳＤカード買いましたよ！
ほんとにパラセイルおすすめです。

We participated as a family of four. My husband, who has a fear of heights, watched and took photos from the boat, while I flew with our 5-year-old and 9-year-old children. It was my first experience as well, but the kids were constantly excited. It was a bit cold up in the air, but there was a rainbow, and the scenery was amazing. The staff on the boat were also very entertaining. Even the next day and the day after that, and after we returned home, the kids keep saying they want to do it again!

家族４人で参加させて頂きました。
高所恐怖症の主人はボートで見学&写真撮影、5歳と9歳の子供と私の３人で飛びました。私も初体験でしたが、子供たちはずーっと興奮しっぱなしでした。上空は少し寒かったですが、丁度虹もかかっていたり景色も最高でした。ボートにのってくれたスタッフの方もとても面白かったです^ ^
次の日もその次の日も、そして帰ってきてからも子供たちは、またやりたーい！と言っています。

Airport transfer from the hotel
I dislike waiting, so when I called, I was told they would arrive in 5 minutes, and they arrived exactly in 5 minutes.
It was quite good.

ホテルから空港送り
待ち時間が嫌なため、電話をいれたら、後5分で到着する！と言われたらきっちり５分で到着しました。
なかなか良いです。

Since I arranged everything personally from the hotel without using a tour company, it felt like being left to my own devices the moment I got off the plane. If you want to get to the hotel and Ala Moana Shopping Center smoothly, I recommend using a service without pushing yourself too hard. Once you're familiar with Hawaii, I think it's good to take the bus or a taxi by yourself. Also, please compare your arrival time at the airport with the operating hours of Ala Moana Shopping Center and consider that. I recommend using a service after arriving in Hawaii.

ツアー会社を利用せず、個人でホテルから手配したので飛行機降りた瞬間放置プレイとなります。
スムーズにホテルやアラモアナショッピングセンターに行きたいなら、無理せず利用をおすすめします。ハワイに慣れたら、ご自分でバスやタクシーに乗るのが良いと思います。
また空港到着時間とアラモアナショッピングセンターの営業時間を比較し検討して見て下さい。
ハワイ到着後の利用をおすすめします。

Although I had experience in Japan, parasailing in Hawaii was the best. The view of Diamond Head from above was exceptional. Communicating with the young couple I shared the ride with was an added bonus and was fun as well.

日本で経験はあったものの、ハワイでのパラセーリングは最高でした。特に上空からのダイヤモンドヘッドは格別でした。
同乗した若いカップルとのコミュニケーションも、おまけで楽しかったです。

We went with a group of ten, and the staff were very friendly and engaging, which made for a great atmosphere. It was a fun time that flew by in no time.

10人で行ったのですが、スタッフ皆さん気さくに話してくださり、とても盛り上がりました。あっという間の楽しい時間でした。

It was my first experience, and it was very interesting. I have a slight fear of heights, but since it was a special trip to Hawaii, I mustered up the courage to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. I decided to challenge myself to 150 meters, and surprisingly, it wasn't as scary as I thought; rather, I was able to enjoy the view from a height that I usually can't see. However, while waiting for other guests, the boat rocked more than I expected, and I felt quite seasick. Normally, I don't get that nauseous in cars or buses, but even for me, it was pretty tough towards the end. I didn't actually throw up, but it was quite challenging. I think motion sickness medication is essential. In any case, I had a great experience this time. There was a Japanese newlywed couple among the other guests, so we asked each other to take photos and videos, and we didn't purchase the paid photos.

初めての経験でしたがとても面白かったです。
若干高所恐怖症なのですがせっかくのハワイ旅行だしと思って勇気を出して挑戦してみて良かったです。
せっかくの機会と思い150mに挑戦しましたが意外と怖さはなく、むしろ普段見ることのできない高いところからの景色を堪能することができました。
ただ、他の客がやっているのを待っている時の船が予想以上に揺れて船酔いがきつかったです。
普段車やバスではそこまで酔うことはないのですがそんな私でも最後の方かなりきつくて、吐くまではいきませんでしたが相当しんどかったです。
酔い止めは必須なのではないかと思います。
いずれにせよ今回は良い経験をさせて頂くことができました。
他のお客さんで日本人の新婚旅行夫婦がいたのでお互いに写真や動画の撮影をお願いして、有料の写真は購入しませんでした。

I had some anxiety since it was my first time using the service, but the smiles of the welcoming staff completely eased my worries. There was almost no waiting time at the airport. Since the hotel check-in was at 3 PM, I used the lounge at Ala Moana Center. The staff at the lounge were very pleasant, and I didn't feel any language barrier at all. I definitely want to use this service again next time. I highly recommend it.

初めての利用で多少不安も有りましたが出迎えてくれた方々の笑顔で不安もすべて吹き飛びました。空港での待ち時間も殆どなし。ホテルのチェックインが１５時と言うことも有ってアラモアナセンターのラウンジを利用させて頂きました。ラウンジ担当の方も大変感じよく言葉の不自由も全く感じさせられませんでした。次回も是非利用したいですね。オススメです。

I participated with three friends! The approach was very polite and friendly, and we were able to get on right away! I definitely want to participate again!

友人３人と参加しました‼️
とにかく丁寧なアプローチしてもらい、とてもフレンドリーな感じで、すぐに乗ることができました！また、参加したいとおもいます‼️

I challenged myself to 150 meters. The climb was fun, but it got a little scary after reaching the top. There were four groups of Japanese participants, including us. We had someone waiting below take a video of us. I took motion sickness medicine, but I still felt nauseous.

150mに挑戦しました。上がって行く途中は楽しかったけど、上がりきってからが少し怖かったです。私たち含め、日本人4組での参加でした。下で待機している人に動画を撮ってもらいました。酔い止め飲んだけど気持ち悪くなってしまいました。

I attended the show on March 19. My stay lasted 20 minutes. It was not held on the rooftop of the Hilton, but in a large hall inside the hotel. Given the impact of COVID-19, the governor of Hawaii has announced that gatherings should not be crowded, so I was shocked to see around 150 to 200 people packed together. I don't know if it was the organizer's decision or the hotel's, but I think it was a wrong judgment. Honestly, since it wasn't on the rooftop, I would like a refund, but I have given up on that possibility.

3／19日のショーにいかしてもらいました。
滞在時間は20分でした。
場所がヒルトンの屋上では無く。ホテル内の大きなホールでしました。
コロナの影響で密集したらダメとハワイの州知事も発表してるのにまさか150人〜200人ぐらいが密集してるのを見てゾッとしました。
主催側の判断なのかホテル側の判断かわかりませんが、間違った判断をしたなと思いました。
正直屋上じゃなかったのでお金を返してほしいですが、無理だろうなとあきらめています。

The quality of the show was incredible. I thought it would mainly feature hula dancing, but there were also opera-like performances and fire dances, all of which exceeded my expectations and were so much fun that I felt emotional and almost cried at the end.

The hula dance depicted the evolution from the 1940s to modern hula, which was great. I saw a fire dance live for the first time, and it was amazing; I definitely want everyone to see it live.

There were also many beautiful men and women, and the women, in particular, were sexy and their dancing was sharp, which kept my eyes glued to the stage. The food was delicious as well. This is definitely one of the places I want to visit again the next time I go to Hawaii. Lastly, you can also take photos and get autographs.

ショーのクオリティーが物凄く、フラダンスがメインなのかと思っていたのですが、歌劇のようなショーや、ファイヤーダンスなど、どれも創造以上に最高で楽しく、終わった時は感動して涙が出そうでした。
フラダンスは1940年代くらいから現代のフラダンスまでの過程をショーで描いていたのでよかったです。
ファイヤーダンスは初めて生で見ましたが、凄い、是非生で見てもらいたい。
また美男美女が多く、特に女性はセクシーでダンスもキレキレなので目が釘付けになってしまいました。
料理も美味しかったです。次もハワイに行ったときは必ず行きたい場所の一つです。最後に写真撮影やサインももらえます。

The view from the boat on the way to the submarine was beautiful. There weren't many fish near the submarine, but I was able to see a lot of small fish and sea turtles. Before getting on the submarine, there was someone who interpreted in Japanese, but the explanations from the crew inside the submarine were in English, so I couldn't understand what they were saying.

潜水艦に行くまでの船からの景色が綺麗でした。潜水艦の近くには魚があまり来なかったですが、たくさんの小さい魚とウミガメも見られました。潜水艦に乗る前までは日本語で通訳してくれる人がいましたが、潜水艦の中でクルーが説明している内容が英語だったので何を言っているのか分からなかったです。

About three years ago, I participated in this tour, and at that time, there were evening departures that felt like a sunset cruise, even if we didn't catch anything. The dock was close to Waikiki, and the captain and staff (his wife?) were efficient, so we didn't have to wait long before setting off. Our group was the only one with Japanese participants. Even though I hardly understood any English, I managed just fine.

We participated as a group of four, and three of us caught a fish called Kawahagi. It seemed like most others didn't catch anything. They provide fishing rods, but it looks like bringing your own is okay; an American boy brought his own rod. My son and I became good rivals, which added to the fun. My 10-year-old son caught three fish and was very pleased when the captain called him the "BEST FISHER." It seemed like his rival caught a bigger fish that wasn't a Kawahagi and was smiling happily.

If the fish were small, they were released. The larger ones were seasoned with flavored salt and grilled for us, but it seemed like those who didn't catch anything were hesitant to eat. Recently, it seems like the number of operating days has decreased, and I hope they don't stop. Although quite some time has passed, I decided to share my experience. This time, if it weren't for COVID-19, I was planning to join this optional tour again, so I feel very disappointed that I have to give up. Next time I go to Hawaii, I will participate again.

３年くらい前に参加したので、そのころは夕方出発があり、釣れなくてもサンセットクルーズみたいでした。船着き場がワイキキに近く、キャプテンやスタッフ（奥さん？）の手際よくて出航まであまり待たずに出発。日本人は私たちのグループだけでした。ほとんど英語がわからなくても何とかなりました。

４人で参加して３人はカワハギがつれました。ほかの方はほとんど釣れてないようでした。
釣り竿は貸してくれますが持ち込みOKのようで、アメリカ人の男の子はMY竿持参でした。息子とは好敵手となりそれもまた楽しめました。
１０歳の息子が３匹釣ってキャプテンから「BEST　FISHER」と言われご満悦でした。息子のライバル君はカワハギではない大きい魚を釣ったようでにこにこしていました。

釣った魚はサイズが小さいとリリース。大きいものはフレーバーソルトで味付けして焼いてくれましたが釣れなかった方たちは遠慮して食べてなかったみたいでした。
最近、催行日が減ったようで、やめないでほしいなと思い、かなり日が経ちましたが体験談を投稿しました。
今回、新型コロナがなければ、またこのオプショナルツアーに参加しようと思っていたのであきらめざる負えず残念な気持ちでいっぱいです。
次回、ハワイに行ったらまた参加します。

When we arrived at the hotel we were staying at, there were a couple of groups already on board. After that, we stopped by two places before heading to the airport. It didn't take much time and everything went smoothly. The place we got off was the check-in counter for flights to the mainland United States, so I unknowingly stood in line for a while. I thought it was strange that only foreigners were in line, and when I asked, I was told that the flights to Japan were on a different floor further ahead. I almost ended up waiting in line for a long time. I wish someone had told me that when I got off the bus.

我々の宿泊してるホテルに来たとき、２，３組の方が乗ってました。あと、２件寄って空港へ。特に時間がかかることがなく、スムーズでした。降りたところがアメリカ本土行きのチェックインカウンタだったので、知らずに、しばらく並びました。途中で外国人ばかりが並んでいて、おかしいと思い聞いてみたら、日本行きはもっと先のフロアだと言われました。危うく、ずっと並んでしまうところでした。バスを降りたときに、一言教えてくれたら良かったのにな、と思いました。
