Waikiki
I chose the direct hotel transfer and made a reservation, but there were multiple announcements at the airport counter and on the bus. I communicated that I didn't need to stop at Ala Moana, but in the end, we stopped at Ala Moana for a while. It seems that stopping at Ala Moana is mandatory.
Since I was traveling with children and there was a large group, it was a bit frustrating. Other than that, there were no particular issues.
ホテル直行を選択して申し込みしましたが、
空港のカウンターでも乗車したバスの中でも何度もアナウンス。
アラモアナ立ち寄りはいらないと伝えたが、
結局アラモアナに寄ってしばらく停車。
アラモアナは立ち寄りを必ずするようです。
子連れ、団体の大人数だったので、
少しうんざりしました。
その他は特に問題ありませんでした
I saw that it was written they would arrive on time, so even though it was early in the morning, I checked out early and waited about 15 minutes before the scheduled time. When the time came and they still hadn't arrived, the hotel porter also seemed worried and asked if my reservation was confirmed. They arrived about 15 minutes late. There were a few other people getting on, and once I got in the car, I felt relieved that we were heading to the airport. However, after 10 minutes without any communication, I became quite anxious. They don't always arrive on time.
時間通りに来ると書いてあったのを見ていたので、朝早い時間ですが、早めにチェックアウトを済ませて、予定時間の15分くらい前から待っていました。時間になっても中々来ず、ホテルのポーターさんも予約出来てるの?と心配しましたが、15分くらい遅れて到着しました。他にも何人か乗っていて車に乗ると空港に行けると安心しましたが、10分を超えると連絡ないのでかなり心配になります。時間通りに着くとは限らないです。
Since the pickup was from the Big Island, I thought we would go to the international terminal, but Hawaiian Airlines came to get us, so the transfer was smooth.
ハワイ島からの送迎なので国際の方に回るかと思っていましたが、ハワイアン航空にきていただけたので、スムーズな移動ができました。
I experienced this with my fifth-grade son. At first, he was really scared, but once we got up there, he saw a view he had never experienced before and had a great time! I'm really glad we participated in this tour!
小学5年生の息子と体験しました。
初めは、物凄く怖がっていましたが、いざ上に上がってみると今まで経験した事がない景色が見れて、凄く楽しんでました!
このツアーに参加して凄く良かったと思います!
We participated as a family. I was nervous, but my child said it was the most fun they had during the trip, so I'm glad we took part!
家族で参加しました
緊張していましたが子供も旅行の中で1番楽しかったそうで参加してよかったなと思いました!
I participated with five friends! One of my friends was trying parasailing for the first time and was really nervous before doing it, but afterwards, they looked very satisfied and it was great that we joined.
友人たちと5人で参加しました!
友人の中には初めてのパラセイリングの子もいてやるまでとてもどきどきしていましたが終わった後はとても満足そうで参加してよかったです
As soon as you exit the airport, there is a noticeable desk, and they smoothly handled my suitcase just by showing my name without needing to present a voucher. The driver only spoke English, so he provided some sightseeing information, but I didn't catch all the details.
空港出口出てすぐ目立デスクがあり、バウチャー見せずに名前だけでスーツケースを運んでくれスムーズでした。
運転手さんは、英語オンリーなので観光案内もしてくれるんですが、細かくはわからなかったです。
Since I was alone, I was able to get to the airport more affordably than by taxi. The timing was also accurate. The driver helped carry my luggage as well.
一人だったので、タクシーよりお得に空港まで行くことができました。
時間も正確でした。荷物もドライバーの方が運んで下さいました。
It was an amazing experience to see so many turtles at once. I have been to Oahu about 20 times but never seen so many turtles! Some of them came to the surface and I was able to see them very close, I could even see their nostrils. After snorkeling, we went sailing to the Diamond Head and the boat jumped up and down the wave and my children were so excited! I would surely want to come again in the near future.
We took our family of 4 (including twin 7 year olds) to this experience. We all got in the water and couldn't believe how many turtles we got to experience up close! The excursion was well managed and very fun! The ride after the snorkel encountered some big waves, which my kids freaked out about a tiny bit, but overall we had an excellent time. It was, hands down, our family's favorite experience in our 10 days in Hawaii.
They picked me up at the hotel on time and dropped me off near the airline counter, which was very helpful. I would like to use this service again when I go to Honolulu.
時間通りにホテルへ迎えにきていただき、航空会社のカウンター近くにおろしていただき、助かりました。またホノルルへいくときには利用したいと思いました。
I got seasick while transferring from the boat to the submarine. If you're prone to motion sickness, be sure to prepare some medication. It can ruin a wonderful experience.
船から潜水艦への乗り換えで、私は酔いました。必ず乗り物に弱い人は酔い止めを準備して下さい。せっかくの体験が台無しです。
On the day, I was told that the waves were high and that stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) would be difficult, so I switched to surfing. There were seven students, and my friend and I ended up with Mr. M, who hardly speaks any Japanese. This Mr. M was the worst! He had no smile from the beginning and looked scary. I was nervous as a beginner...
Even when we were in the water, he never came over to the students. Even when he told us to come over, we couldn't move towards him... It was not fun at all. He assumed we didn't understand English and kept complaining, saying things like, "I'm just doing this for work," and "You can't even swim."
If you get this teacher, it's the worst. He should be let go! What should have been a fun memory turned into a terrible one that I don't want to remember. The woman at the counter (a Japanese person) also said that this teacher has a bad reputation. I can't understand why he is still employed. I want my money back. Of course, there are things that need to be said for safety, but that attitude is unacceptable!
当日、波が高いとのことでSUP難しいと言われサーフィンに。生徒が7人いたため、私と友人は日本語のほとんどできないM先生となった。このM先生が最悪です!最初から笑顔なし、怖い顔のまま。初心者で緊張しているのに・・・
海で出ても、先生から生徒に寄ってくることなし。こっちにこいと言われてもなかなか先生のところまですすむこともできず・・・
全く楽しくない。そして、こちらが英語がわからないと思って、「俺は仕事だからやってんだ」とか、「泳げないくせに」とか、文句ばかり。
この先生にあたったら、最悪です。やめさせるべき!
楽しいはずの思い出が思い出したくない最悪の思い出になりました。
カウンターの女性(日本人)もこの先生は評判が悪いと言っていました。なぜ、雇っているのか理解に苦しみます。
お金を返してもらいたい。もちろん、危険もあるでしょうから、言わなければいけないこともあるでしょうが、あの態度はない!

はなはな様:

I used the shuttle service from the Big Island back to Honolulu to get to my hotel. Since the hotel only stops at five locations, it didn't take much time. The other limousine buses I used before stopped at about ten places, which took a lot of time, but I found Roberts to be comfortable. The price was reasonable, and the driver was polite. I would like to use it again.
ハワイ島からホノルルに帰ってきてホテルまでの送迎に利用しました。ホテルは5ヵ所しか回らないので、それほど時間は掛かりません。以前利用した他のリムジンバスは10ヵ所位回って行くので非常に時間が掛かりましたが、ロバーツは快適だと思いました。料金もリーズナブルだし運転手さんも丁寧でした。また利用したいですね。
The cheerful instructor was a lot of fun. They taught us carefully, so I was able to ride relatively smoothly. I recommend it for those who are trying surfing for the first time.
陽気なインストラクターさんがとても楽しかったです。丁寧に教えてくれたので割とスムーズに乗れるようになりました。サーフィン初めてという方にはオススメです。
This was my third consecutive year participating, and the exhilarating feeling of riding the waves was as amazing as ever! It's one of the must-do activities in Hawaii, so I'll definitely be back next year!
今年で3年連続の参加でしたが、相変わらず波に乗る爽快感は最高でした!ハワイで外せないアクティビティーのひとつなので、また来年も来ま~す!!
This was my first time in Hawaii, and it was also my first time surfing. I had a bit of anxiety, but the instructors were very friendly, and the lessons were enjoyable from start to finish! I'm not particularly good at sports, but I was able to stand up on the board!! The way they taught was also very good. When I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to surf here again!
初めてのハワイで、しかもサーフィンも初めて。不安も少しありましたが、教えてくださった方々がとてもフレンドリーで終始楽しいレッスンでした!運動は、どちらかといえば苦手だったのですが、立てました!!教え方がとても上手なところもよかったです♩またハワイに行った際は、是非またここでサーフィンをしたいと思います!
Paddling is such an amazing Hawaiian tradition; these guys made it a blast. My family hasn't paddled before and it had been 20 years for me. They took us out in Waikiki and we caught some swells and rode the waves in. The photographers associated with canoeing took great shots and captured everyone smiling. I absolutely recommend this excursion for anyone traveling to Oahu.
On windy days, those who are prone to seasickness may want to take motion sickness medication, as it could be helpful. It's close to Waikiki, so I recommend it for those who are short on time.
風が強い日は、船酔いしやすい人は酔い止めを飲んで、望むとよいかも。ワイキキから近いので時間の無い人にもオススメです。
It was very expensive, but since it was over the sea, I wasn't scared. The view of Waikiki was very beautiful. The boat rocked quite a bit, so it's better to take motion sickness medication. In the end, you get dropped into the sea, but I had fun.
とても高かったけど、下は海なので怖くなかったです。ワイキキの景色がとてもきれいでした。かなりボートが揺れて船酔いしやすいので酔い止め飲んだ方がいいです。
最後に海にドボンされますが、楽しめました。
I referred to the experiences beforehand. Following the advice, I gave motion sickness medication to my children who are prone to getting seasick before boarding, but only my eldest daughter ended up feeling seasick among the three kids. The boarding position might also be a factor. It may be better for those who are prone to seasickness to board towards the back of the boat.
The parasailing experience itself was wonderful. I let my 5-year-old try it at 150 meters. Thanks to the cheerful and friendly staff, we had a great time.
体験談を事前に参照しました。
アドバイス通り、乗り物酔いしやすい子供たちに酔い止めを内服させて乗船させましたが、3人の子供のうち長女のみが船酔いしてしまいました。乗船位置も関係しているかもしれません。船酔いしやすい人はなるべく後部の方に乗船した方がよいかもしれません。
パラセイリング自体は素晴らしい体験でした。
5歳児も150mで体験させました。陽気でフレンドリーな添乗員のおかげでとても楽しめました。
On the way there, I used a different company and was dropped off at a nearby hotel. For the optional tour, I was told that parking was not allowed in front of that hotel, so we went to another hotel instead, but they came to pick me up right in front of the hotel! The cheerful driver made the trip to the airport feel like no time at all. I would like to use them again!
行きは別の会社に頼むと近くのホテルでおろされ、オプショナルツアーでも、そのホテル前は駐車できないのでと、別のホテル前まで行きましたが、ちゃんとホテル前まで迎えに来てくれました!陽気な運転手さんで空港まであっという間に感じるほどでした。また、お願いします!
I stayed at a different Hilton, but the location was a bit hard to find. I chose the middle course, and I was able to get priority for the buffet, so I recommend it. I was seated to the side, but there were dancers in every direction, so it was totally fine!
I recommend going at least once!
別のヒルトンに泊まってたのですが、場所が少し分かりづらかったです。
真ん中のコースにしたのですが、優先的にビュッフェを取れたのでおススメです。横の席だったのですが、全方向にダンサーさんがいるので、全然大丈夫でした!
一度は行ってみることをオススメします!
I signed up for a 90m experience with my wife and our two elementary school children. The whole family was super excited about this extraordinary experience! We had a great time.
There was a middle school boy and a woman from another couple on the same boat who got seasick, so it's better for those who are prone to motion sickness to take anti-nausea medication beforehand.
小学生2人と妻と私の4人で90mに申し込みました。非日常の体験に家族みんな大興奮!すっごく楽しめました。
同じボートに中学生の男の子と、別のカップルの女性が船酔いで死んでましたので、酔いやすい人は酔い止め薬を先に飲んでおいた方がいいです。
The yellow shirt was a good marker and easy to spot. It was said that Japanese support was available, but it didn't feel like they understood Japanese; however, I managed somehow.
黄色いシャツが目印で分かりやすかった。
日本語対応可能となってたが、日本語が通じる感じはしなかったが、なんとかなりました。
When I was asked for the airline while boarding, I said Hawaiian, and I was dropped off at the domestic terminal for Hawaiian Airlines, which made me walk quite a bit to check in.
乗車するときに航空会社をきかれたので、ハワイアンと伝えたらハワイアン航空の国内線乗り場で降ろされてしまい、随分歩いてチェックインすることになってしまいました。
We used the shuttle from our hotel in Waikiki to the airport for three people. With a taxi, our large suitcases wouldn't fit, but there was plenty of room with the shuttle. The driver wasn't Japanese, but I clearly understood the call and he handled our luggage carefully. It's cheaper than a taxi, and the price is reassuringly low, including the tip. I will definitely use it again next time.
ワイキキのホテルから空港まで、親子3人で利用しました。
タクシーだとスーツケースも大きくて乗り切れないですが、
シャトルだと余裕です。運転手さんは日本人の方ではないですが、
呼び出しもはっきりわかりましたし、荷物も丁寧に積み込んでいた
だきました。タクシーよりも安くて、チップ込みで安心低価格です。
次回も必ず利用します。
Japanese companies have group exits, but here you will be transported smoothly to the hotel. I think it's the best for first-timers as well.
日本の会社は団体出口またされますが、
こちらはスムーズにホテルまで運ばれます。
初めての方もベストだとおもいます。
I was a little disappointed that we didn't land in the water for some reason, but my first parasailing experience was very enjoyable. I recommend going for 150 meters! I usually get motion sickness, but thanks to taking motion sickness medicine, I was totally fine with the boat's rocking!
なぜか着水してくれなかったのが少しだけ残念でしたが、初めてのパラセイリング体験はとても楽しかったです。150mがオススメです!普段乗り物酔いする私ですが、酔い止めを飲んでいたおかげか、船の揺れは全然平気でした!
We participated with two elementary school students and two adults, a total of four people. Our reservation was for 1 PM, but we had to wait about 40 minutes for the previous canoe to return. However, the staff member who spoke Japanese at the reception said, "You can wait in the pool at the Royal Hawaiian," so we were lucky to wait while playing in the pool, keeping the kids entertained.
We experienced the canoe with three families from the West and our group of four. In addition to a friendly captain, one of the staff members who spoke Japanese joined us, which made us feel safe and allowed us to enjoy the experience. The kids just sat in the canoe without paddles. When I asked, "Can we take pictures while on the canoe?" they replied, "You can take pictures without paddles," so I also took pictures without a paddle and enjoyed canoe surfing to my heart's content. Although we were told we could ride the waves twice, we were lucky enough to ride three times, which left us very satisfied.
We had a fantastic time at a reasonable price, and the whole family enjoyed it. I highly recommend it!
小学生2人と大人2人の4人で参加しました。
13時~の予約でしたが、前の回のカヌーが戻ってくるのを待っていて40分ほど待ち時間があったとおもいます。
しかし受付の日本語のできるスタッフの方が「(ロイヤルハワイアンの)プールに入って待ってていいよ」とのことでしたので、プールで遊びながら待っていたので子供達も飽きずに待ててラッキーでした。
カヌーは、欧米のファミリー三人と私たち四人が一緒に体験しました。感じの良いキャプテンの他に、先程の日本語のできるスタッフの一人も入ってくれて安心して楽しめました。
子供はオールは持たずに乗るだけ。 「カヌーに乗って写真を撮っても良いか?」と聞いたら、「オールなしなら写真撮れるよ」とのことだったので、私もオールはなしで 思う存分写真を撮りながらカヌーサーフィンを体験させていただきました。
波に乗れるのは2回とのことでしたが、またまたラッキーな事に3回も乗らせて頂き大満足です。
手頃な値段で、家族みんなが楽しめて最高の時間が過ごせました。
おすすめです!
