Waikiki
I was looking forward to Michael and reserved a VIP seat, but he didn't perform. I wonder if the actor playing Presley filled in for him, as it seemed like he had a tough time juggling both roles. I was really disappointed since I was there for Michael.
The dancing and singing by Presley and the other actors were wonderful. The performance that involved moving around the audience was also enjoyable.
The Western audience was lively and helped create a great atmosphere, but since there were many Japanese people, it might have felt flat without them.
The food portions were sufficient, but I wouldn't expect too much in terms of taste. It's not bad, but it's not great either.
マイケルを楽しみにVIP席を取りましたが、出演なしでした。プレスリー役がその穴埋めをしていたのか、プレスリーではない役とプレスリー役と兼任で大変そうだったかな。マイケル目当てだったのでとてもがっかりしてしまいました。
プレスリーやその他のアクターのダンスや歌は素晴らしかったです。客席を回ってくれる演出も楽しかったです。
欧米の方がノリがよくて盛り上げてくれていましたが、日本人が多いので彼らがいなかったら盛り上がらなくてしらけてしまったかもしれません。
料理は量は十分ですが味はあまり期待しない方がいいです。まずいという程ではありません。
Thank you very much for visiting us this time, and for your valuable feedback. We would like to work on improvements as a team based on the challenges ahead. We sincerely look forward to your visit again when you come to Hawaii.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。また貴重なご意見、有難うございます。今後の課題として、スタッフ全員で改善に取り組みたいと思います。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 used the service on September 18, 2019. The flight was delayed by over 30 minutes, and it took about another hour to complete the procedures before leaving the airport, but I wasn't informed of any issues and was guided promptly. The staff member was Japanese and seemed busy handling the reservations of the incoming guests. The driver spoke English. When I was asked where I was going, I replied, "Are you going to Ala Moana? Then get on this way—your hotel is XX!" They were very efficient.
We arrived at Ala Moana Center quickly, and the Roberts Hawaii lounge was very nice, with pleasant service in both Japanese and English. There was a large rabbit stuffed toy that was adorable. Here, I received an eco bag, which was very helpful since eco bags are essential in Hawaii! I planned to request the 3 PM bus for check-in at the hotel, but I was told it was full from the previous guests, so I took the 4 PM bus instead.
I was able to enjoy a meal and shopping, making good use of my time from the first day, which I was very satisfied with! I couldn't take pictures because there were too many people on the shuttle bus, but it seems the back seats accommodate five people, while the other seats can fit about eight, so it fills up quickly! I definitely recommend it! ✨
2019/09/18に利用。飛行機が30分以上遅れているうえに空港を出るまでにさらに1時間くらい手続きにかかりましたが何も言われず、すぐに案内してくれましたスタッフの方は日本人で次々にくる予約の人たちの対応に忙しくて手が回らないような感じ、ドライバーさんは英語でした。どこなホテルか聞かれ「アラモアナに行く?じゃあこっち乗って〜、ホテルは〇〇ね!」とテキパキしていました。
アラモアナセンターはすぐに着きロバーツハワイのラウンジはとっても綺麗で日本語、英語共に感じのいい接客、大きなウサギの人形が可愛かったです。
こちらではエコバックをもらえました。ハワイはエコバック必需品なのでとても助かりました!15時にホテルがチェックインなので3時のバスをお願いしようとしたら前の人でもぉないといわれ16時のバスに。
ご飯を食べたり買い物を楽しめたので初日から時間を有効に使え満足です!写真はたくさん人が乗ってたので載せられませんでしたがシャトルバスは後ろの席が5人、後は2人の席が8ぐらいなのですぐにいっぱいになるみたいです!是非オススメします✨
My clients said they saw about 60 bottlenose dolphins. They said it was the most incredible experience!
As soon as I got off the airport, someone in a yellow outfit came to greet me, so I recognized them right away.
I was grateful that the departure time was early, and I could head straight to the hotel.
空港を降りるとすぐに黄色い洋服の方が迎えにきてくれたので、
すぐにわかりました。
出発時間も早く、すぐにホテルへ直行できたのでありがたかったです。
As soon as we exited the group exit, we immediately recognized the receptionist. We were guided by the staff to the bus. Those who hadn't made a reservation were waiting in line, but we only waited a few minutes and were able to board for sure. We didn't understand any English at all. The driver, who seemed to be explaining the scenery and telling jokes, was cheerful the whole time. We were definitely taken to the hotel.
団体出口を出ると、すぐに受付の人が分かりました。係りの人に連れられてバスのところに移動。予約していない人たちは、列をつっくて待っていましたが、私たちは数分待って確実に乗車できました。英語が全く分からない私たち。車窓からの風景の説明やジョークを言っているような始終にこやかな運転手さんでした。確実にホテルまで送ってもらいました。
The pickup time to the hotel was quite delayed, but the company called the hotel, so I was able to wait without worrying. I was dropped off right in front of the airline counter.
ホテルへの迎えの時間が随分遅れましたが、会社からホテルへ電話連絡が入り、心配することなく待てました。航空会社のカウンター前まできっちり送ってもらえました。
I was relieved by the timely pick-up. During the ride to the airport, we chatted in English about various things like "Thank you for coming to Hawaii," "Don't forget anything, like your wife or husband," "Did you remember your shopping at Ala Moana Center?" and "Come back again." It was enjoyable!
時間通りのお迎えで、安心しました。
空港までの間に英語ですが「ハワイに来てくれてありがとう」「忘れ物はしないでね。例えば奥さんとか旦那さんとか」「アラモアナセンターでのお買い物忘れはない?」「また来てね」など、色々おしゃべりしてくれて楽しかったです。
Even if you can't speak English, it was easy to understand with the use of gestures. There is an instructor present, so women can participate with peace of mind. I recommend it for beginners as well.
英語が話せなくてもジェスチャーを交えてくれてわかりやすかったです。
インストラクターの方がいらっしゃるので女性でも安心して参加できます。
初心者の方にもオススメです。
I was worried about whether they would arrive on time, but they were only about 5 minutes late, which I consider excellent. Perhaps due to traffic conditions, instead of getting on the highway right away, we took a fun little city tour route.
時間通りに来てくれるか心配でしたが、5分程度の遅れでした。私的には優秀です。道の渋滞状況の関係なのか、すぐにハイウェイに乗らずに、プチ市内散策風ルートで楽しかったです。
Since I was traveling alone, I used this shuttle bus instead of a taxi. They arrived about 10 minutes early since I was the first pickup. There were other passengers on board, almost to full capacity, but they efficiently made stops at other hotels, so I didn't feel much time was lost.
1人での乗車でしたので、タクシーではなくこちらのシャトルバスを利用しました。
ピックアップが一番最初だったこともあり10分前には来てくれていました。
その後乗車定員ギリギリまで同乗者がいましたが、効率良く他のホテルを回ってくれていたので時間のロスはあまり感じられませんでした。
They arrived on time to pick me up, and I was able to arrive at the airport with peace of mind. The airport itself is compact and easy to navigate, so I was able to go to the check-in counter without any issues. The driver seemed like a kind person, and I believe the driving was safe. The interior of the car was spacious and comfortable.
時間通りに迎えにきてくださり、安心して空港へ到着することができました。
そもそも空港がコンパクトでわかりやすい、というのもありますが、
問題なくすぐにチェックインカウンターへ行くことができました。
運転手さんも、やさしそうな方でした。
運転も、安全運転だと思います。
車内は広く快適でした。
I participate every time I come to Hawaii. This time, the sunset cruise was fully booked, so I went with the daytime course. Cruising with a Mai Tai in hand while looking at the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head is just too luxurious. Recently, there have been many international participants, and there was only one Japanese group left. I would give it six stars if I could.
ハワイに来るたびに参加しています。今回はサンセットが満員でしたので、昼のコースに。マイタイ片手にワイキキのホテル群、ダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながらクルーズなんて贅沢すぎ。最近は、海外の方の参加率が多く、日本人グループは、あと一組だけ。星6つ付けたいくらいです。
They arrived on time. The driver was also very pleasant. They handled the trunk carefully, which made me feel at ease.
時間通りに来てくれました。
ドライバーの方の感じも良かったです。
トランクも丁寧に扱ってくれたので、安心でした。
The weather was very nice, and the scenery was great! The crew was cheerful and kind, constantly providing drinks and taking photos for us. We were able to see sea turtles and seals from a distance! Going further out to sea and looking at the beach and the view of Diamond Head was exceptional! Riding the waves felt like a roller coaster and was thrilling. However, one of the kids (a middle schooler) got a bit seasick. Thank you to the staff for their support. While I and the other family members were fine, I recommend that those who are concerned take motion sickness medication before boarding. It was a wonderful experience sailing, something that doesn't come by often!
とてもよいお天気で景色もよく見えました!クルーの皆さんも明るく親切で飲み物をどんどん用意してくれたり、写真をとってくれたりしました。海亀とアザラシを遠くから見ることができました!どんどん沖にでて海からビーチをみたり、ダイヤモンドヘッドを見る景色はまた格別でした!波にぐんぐん乗り、まるでジェットコースターのようでスリルもありました。ただ子供(中学生)か一人酔ってしまいました。スタッフの方のフォローありがとうございました。私や他の家族は大丈夫でしたが心配な方は乗る前に酔い止めをのんでおくことをオススメします。なかなかできないセーリングでとても楽しめました!
Although you can't see the grand ocean scenery like in a painting, you can enjoy a surreal underwater world at the "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" attraction in Tokyo DisneySea! It's especially recommended for those who are not good at swimming and don't want to dive! However, if you're prone to seasickness, it's a good idea to take some motion sickness medication beforehand. I also tend to get seasick, but I prepared in advance based on prior information, so I was able to enjoy the underwater scenery until the end!
絵に描いたような壮大な海の中の様子は見れませんが、非日常の世界をリアルな海の中をディズニーシーにある海底二万マイルというアトラクションにのように楽しめました!
泳ぎが苦手でダイビングはやりたくないなぁって方は特にオススメです!
ただ船酔いしやすい方は酔い止め飲んでおくと安心です!私も船酔いしやすいですが、前情報から酔い対策してたので最後まで楽しく海底を鑑賞できました!
Aloha! We're glad you enjoyed the cruise at such a unique and beautiful location in Waikiki. Thank you for sharing your experience and recommendations. We hope to see you again in the future. Mahalo!
アロハ!ワイキキの非常にユニークで美しい場所でのクルーズを楽しんでいただけたことを嬉しく思います。あなたの経験と推奨事項を共有していただきありがとうございます。将来またご参加ください。マハロ!
After the video lesson, we practiced on the sandy beach. Since it was a longboard suitable for beginners, almost all the women, including myself, were able to ride it right away! The guide was also cheerful! I was a bit disappointed that we couldn't get any photos taken.
ビデオ講習のあとにビーチの砂浜で練習しました。初心者向けのロングボードということもあり、私を含めほとんどの女性がすぐ乗れてました!
ガイドさんも陽気な感じでした!
写真撮影して貰えなかったのが少し残念でした。
I went on my first day in Hawaii. Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I decided to get a Diamond Seat and participate. Thanks to arriving early, I was guided to the central front row seat, and it was great to see the show up close. I was especially excited about the fire dance! I was also given priority for the buffet, and I was very satisfied!
初めてのハワイで初日に行きました。折角の初ハワイだからとダイヤモンドシートを取って参加しました。早めに行ったおかげか中央の一番前の席に案内していただき、ショーを間近で見ることができて良かったです。特にファイヤーダンスに興奮しました!ビュッフェも優先で案内いただき、とても満足でした!
■Positive Points
The sea is beautiful.
It's not as scary as I thought.
■Negative Points
It shakes a lot.
When there are many participants, the waiting time on the shaking boat is long, and you can get seasick.
Since it goes quite far offshore, you can get seasick during that time.
■Overall Evaluation
Most of the negative points are related to seasickness, but even people who usually don't get seasick will likely get sick, so motion sickness medication is essential.
I think this is the most important point to be aware of, but there isn't much warning about it, so please be careful, everyone.
We were the last ones, but while others were participating, we got seasick, and by the time it was our turn, we were just trying not to throw up and hardly enjoyed it (laughs).
■良かった点
海が綺麗
思ったほど怖くない。
■悪かった点
とにかく揺れる
参加人数が多いと、船に揺られて待つ時間が長く、酔う。
かなり沖合まで行くので、その間に酔う。
■総評
悪かった点はほとんど船酔い関係ですが、
普段船酔いしない人でもまず間違いなく酔いますので、酔い止めは必須です。
最も注意すべきポイントだと思いますがあまり注意喚起がされていないので、皆さん気をつけて下さい。
私達は最後だったのですが、他の方がされている間に酔ってしまい、自分達の番の時はとにかく吐かないように我慢していて、ほとんど楽しめませんでした(笑)
We participated with three adults. There was no transportation provided, and we made a reservation for 3 PM. We had to wait in the blazing sun for an hour from the designated check-in time, and the departure was around 3:30 PM. The boat was quite rocky, but I was fine since I took motion sickness medication. I have a fear of heights, but after reading everyone’s experiences, I decided to go for the 150 meters. While the stunning views distracted me, it was still scary. Especially after the Japon, we went up at quite a speed, and I ended up screaming so much that my voice went hoarse. The other two said they wanted to do it again.
I requested a photo shoot for $30, and there were a total of 85 pictures taken. The other group had the same number of photos. I had high hopes since there was a telephoto lens, but most of the pictures were blurry due to continuous shooting, and in some, my face was completely dark because of backlighting. Only a few decent photos turned out. It might have been better to exchange cameras with the other group or use AirDrop to share photos with smartphones.
大人3人で参加しました。送迎なし、15時で予約しました。
指定されたチェックインから1時間炎天下で待たされ、出発は15時30分位でした。
ボートはかなり揺れましたが、酔い止めを飲んでいたので大丈夫でした。
高所恐怖症ですが、みなさんの体験談を読んで思い切って150mにしてみました。素晴らしい景色を見ていると気がまぎれるのですが、やっぱり怖かったです。特にジャポンの後はかなりのスピードで上がって行くので、声が枯れるほど叫んでしまいました。他の二人はまたやりたいと言っていました。
30ドルで写真撮影をお願いしましたが、全部で85枚写っていました。
他のグループの方も同じ枚数でした。
望遠レンズが付いていたので期待していたのですが、連写されたピンボケ、逆光で顔が真っ黒、景色もイマイチで まともな写真は数枚でした。
他のグループの方とカメラを交換して撮りあったり、スマホのAirDropで交換
したほうがよかったかもしれません。
I tried parasailing for the first time in my 50s. I'm not good with rocking boats or heights, but I took motion sickness medication and decided to go for it, and it was truly amazing! The time spent flying in the air was longer than I expected.
50代にして初めてパラセーリングに挑戦しました。揺れるボートも高いところも苦手だけど酔い止めを飲んで思い切って参加しましたが本当最高でした!
思った以上に空中を飛ぶ時間は長かったです。
I had a reservation for stand-up paddleboarding, but due to the high waves, I quickly switched to surfing. I was anxious, but the instructor was funny and taught us kindly, and somehow both of us were able to stand up and ride the waves! Mr. Aiza's broken Japanese is the best!
サップで予約していましたが、波が高かったため、急遽サーフィンに変更しました。
不安でしたが、先生が面白く、優しく教えてくれて、なんとか2人とも立って、波に乗ることが出来ました!
アイザ先生のカタコトの日本語が最高です!
Whenever I go to Hawaii, I always request a shuttle service. It includes tips, so I can travel without any language barriers and feel at ease. I highly recommend everyone to use this service. I will be going again in November, so please arrange the shuttle for me.
いつもハワイに行くときは必ず送迎を頼んでいます。
チップも込みで安心して言葉の不自由もなく行けますので
是非皆様も利用されたらいいと思います。
また11月も行きますので送迎をお願いします。
I was seated at the back, but it wasn't too difficult to see the stage, and I had a great time. The food was also delicious.
後方の席でしたが、ステージが酷く見にくい
ということもなく、とても楽しめました。
料理も美味しかったです。
Upon arriving in Hawaii, I booked a shuttle locally after my arrival. However, it required some waiting time. If you make a reservation in advance, it’s very convenient as you won’t have to wait and everything will be on time.
ハワイ到着時は、到着後に現地でシャトルを予約しましたが、待ち時間などが必要で、予約しておくと時間通りで、待ち時間もなく大変便利でした。
We participated as a family of four. Out of the ten participants, everyone except our family was foreign, and they were lively, cheering and clapping, making the time enjoyable even outside of our own experience. Each pair had about ten minutes of experience, and we returned to the port after 1 hour and 10 minutes from departure.
It was our first time parasailing, and the view from above was magnificent and refreshing. When we reached the highest point, it felt like we were at the same height as Diamond Head. The sky and sea were both a brilliant blue, and Waikiki, with its lined-up hotels, looked beautiful, making us feel like we had stepped into a postcard.
Our daughters participated while filming with a GoPro, and that video became a nice souvenir. Just for reference, I tend to be a bit anxious and brought various items with me, but I hardly got wet (just a little on my feet), and I didn't need to use a towel or change clothes. Haha.
家族4人で参加しました。
10名の参加者のうち、うちの家族以外は外国人でノリが良く、歓声があがったり、拍手がおきたりと、自分たちの体験以外の時間も楽しかったです。
各ペア10分ほどの体験で出発から1時間10分で港に戻って来ました。
初めてのパラセーリングでしたが、空からの景色は壮大で清々しく、一番高く上がった時はダイヤモンドヘッドと同じくらいに感じました。
空も海も一面青く、ホテルが連なるワイキキは綺麗で絵はがきの中に入り込んだ気分になりました。
娘たちはゴープロを撮影しながら参加。その動画もお土産になりました。
参考までに、、心配性で荷物をあれこれ持参しましたが、ほとんど濡れることもなく(足が少し濡れる程度)タオルも着替えも使いませんでした。笑
Parasailing was my first experience, and it was exhilarating. I had the precious opportunity to see the beautiful scenery of Hawaii from the ocean. The operation was smooth, allowing us to go up and down and even dip a little into the water, which was a lot of fun. One downside was that while others were participating, we had to stay on the boat, which made some people feel seasick. I felt like most people were a bit nauseous. I think it would be more comfortable if there were fewer groups on the boat at the same time.
パラセーリングは初めてでしたが、爽快感があって、ハワイの景色を海から見られるという貴重な体験が出来ました。
操縦もうまく、上げたり下げたり、少しだけ水の中に入れたりと、楽しませてくれました。
ひとつ難点は、他の方がやっている間も船に乗っているため、酔うことです。ほとんどの方が酔っていた気がします。もう少し同乗する組が少なければ快適なのかなと思いました。
This time, I participated with my two grandchildren. They were thrilled to gradually dive underwater. We enjoyed the rarely seen seabed. One disappointment was the condition of the headphones...
今回二人の孫と参加しました。徐々に潜水していく様子に孫たちは大喜びでした。滅多に見れない海底を堪能しました。
一つ残念なのは、ヘッドフォンの調子が…
This time I traveled alone, so I didn't rent a car. Therefore, I took a taxi to the hotel upon arrival, which cost about $40 including the tip... I thought that was expensive, so I made a reservation for the duration of my stay. They pick you up from various hotels and take you to the airport. They drop you off in order according to the airline, so I was able to check in without getting lost. I would like to make a reservation for my arrival next time in Hawaii!
今回はひとり旅なのでレンタカーを借りませんでした。なので、到着の時はホテルまでタクシーで。チップを含め40ドル程...。高いと思ったので滞在中に予約しました。いろいろなホテルでピックアップして空港へ向かいます。空港会社別に順番に下ろしてくれるので、迷う事なくチェックイン出来ました。次回のハワイは到着も予約したいと思います!
OMG!! What an experience! Soaring above beautiful blue waters with sunny skies! The captain and his mate were entertaining and engaging. They gave a mini lesson, took pics and were understanding with our autistic son whom went first with his dad! The location was super convenient since it was right in the back of our hotel! Our time was suppose to be later but they were able to move us up which apllowed us to get to our next activity on time. If you are fearful suck it up and jump right in! It's a decision you would not regret!
Pickup was on time, and we got on the boat on the almost immediately.
The 2 guides were great!
The parasailing experience was great with fantastic views all around. The only downside was that since the wind was towards the direction of the sun, all the photos were just silhouettes and our faces couldn't be seen. This is nothing against the company, who were great :)
Would recommend!
