Waikiki
Since it had been a while since my last visit to Honolulu, I decided to relax and not rent a car, so I used the shuttle bus for the first time. It's convenient as it takes you right to the hotel!
久々のホノルルだったので
レンタカーは借りずのんびりステイと思い
初めてのシャトルバスを利用
ホテル前まで着くので便利❗
I used the airport and hotel transfer service for the first time, and it was punctual. I didn't have any particular concerns, so I would like to use it again.
空港とホテルの送迎で、初めて利用しましたが、時間に正確でした。特に不安もなかったので、また利用したいと思います。
I participated in a three-generation family trip! My father had been hoping to see a submarine! I was so moved when I saw it emerge from the sea before diving!! However, once we dove, there were not many fish to see. I was expecting to see a variety of fish, but there was a lot of time spent just looking at the endless seabed, with only occasional fish…
3世代家族旅行で参加しました!
父が希望していた、潜水艦!潜る前に海から現れる姿を見て見たときは、感動しましたー!!
が、いざ潜ると、魚少ないのですね〜
もう少し色々な魚が見られるのかな?と期待していましたが、果てしなく続く海底を眺める時間も多く、たまに魚…という感じでした、汗
The weather on the day was unfortunately cloudy with occasional rain. I headed out to the sea feeling a bit anxious, but we weren't blessed with clear skies, as it drizzled lightly along the way. However, the scenery was beautiful, and it felt really nice.
I wanted to capture the moment as a keepsake, so I requested a photo shoot for an additional $30 (I gave the tip at this time). They took pictures with the plane flying by, and when it was cloudy, they adjusted the location to catch any breaks in the clouds!
Basically, the staff members do not speak Japanese, but they were all bright and friendly! By the way, the boat can sway quite a bit, so if you're worried about motion sickness, it's a good idea to take some medication.
You can bring simple items as your carry-on: a bath towel, sunglasses, a tip, and $30 for the photo request. It can get chilly on the boat, so it's better to bring a rash guard. If you put your smartphone in a waterproof case that you can hang around your neck, you'll be able to take pictures when you go up.
当日の天気が、あいにくの曇り時々雨。
ハラハラしながら海上へ向かったんですが、途中軽く雨が降ったりで快晴には恵まれませんでした。でも、景色も良くてとても気持ち良かったです。
記念として残したかったので、+30ドルで写真撮影もお願いしました。(チップはこの時に渡しました)飛行機が飛んだりしてると一緒に撮ってくれたり、曇りの時は晴れ間があると場所を調整してくれたりして撮ってくれますよ!
基本的にスタッフの方々は日本語は喋れませんが、みんな明るくて親切な方々ばかりでした!
ちなみに、結構船が揺れるので心配な方は酔い止め薬は飲んだ方がいいです!
手荷物は簡単なものでOK。バスタオル1枚、サングラス、チップと、写真をお願いする時は30ドル。船上は寒かったりする事もあるので、ラッシュガードは持って行った方がいいです。
スマホは首から提げる防水タイプのケースに入れておくと、上に上がった時に撮影出来ると思いますよ。
I have used this service several times before, but this time was particularly good. The bus arrived a little before the meeting time, and the guidance was polite. What stood out the most was that the driver was committed to safe driving. I had thought that it was normal for shuttle bus drivers in Hawaii to drive roughly, but this driver was a model of safe driving.
今までにも何回か利用させていただいてますが、今回は特に良かったです。
バスは集合時間より少し前に到着し、案内も丁寧でした。なにより良かったのは、ドライバーが安全運転に徹していたことです。ハワイの送迎バスドライバーは運転が荒っぽくて当たり前と思っていましたが、今回のドライバーさんは、安全運転の見本のような方でした。
I highly recommend this show. It is one of a kind show. It is a luau with Las Vegas flare. I particularly loved Elvis. I wish he could have sang some more songs but it was still a great show. All the performances were outstanding. The band was good too. Also the fire dance was great. My kids enjoyed it. Do not hesitate to watch the show. When I come back to Honolulu I want to watch it again. We had the dinner buffet before the show and the food was great too. It included a free maitai. I also like that it was in an enclosed theatre. Rock a hula, you rock. I would not hesitate to watch it again.
I participated with my wife and our son who just turned four. My wife was worried because there were reviews mentioning that the boat sways, and she tends to get seasick, but we had no problems and enjoyed ourselves completely. However, I think it really depends on the weather and wave conditions, so it might be good to plan while checking the weather forecast. The weather was nice, so we were able to fully enjoy the sunset. There were also some older participants who approached us and spoke to us in simple English, which made for very good memories.
妻と4歳になったばかりの息子と参加。
揺れるという口コミがあり、船酔いしやすい妻は心配していましたが、私達は全く問題なく楽しめました。ただしやはり天候や波の状況によると思うので、天気予報を見ながら計画されるのが良いかと思います。
天気も良かったのでサンセットも十分に満喫できました。年配の参加者も散見され、簡単な英語で話しかけて頂けたりととても良い思い出となりました。
I was a bit anxious because the pickup didn't arrive on time. The parasailing staff spoke Japanese, and the views were amazing; it was so much fun overall. They took a lot of photos, which became great memories. In the end, we splashed into the sea, but it was so well done that there was nothing but enjoyment! I'm planning to go to Hawaii again, and I want to experience this once more!
時間通りにお迎えが来なかったので、ヒヤヒヤしました。パラセールのスタッフは日本語を話してくれるし、景色は最高でとにかく楽しかったです。写真もたくさん撮影してくれていて、いい思い出になりました。最後、海にポチャンしますが、丁寧なので楽しさしかありませんでした!またハワイに行く予定ですが、もう一度体験したいです!
It was different from the image of the impersonation rock show that was on TV about seven years ago. Neither Elvis nor Michael looked alike at all, and their singing and voices were not similar, which was disappointing! However, the surrounding band and dancing were very good!
7年位前にコマーでやっていたモノマネロックショウのイメージとは違いました。エルビスもマイケルも全く顔も似ていないし歌も声も似て居なくてガッカリ!しかし周りのバンド、踊りはとても良かった!
Thank you very much for visiting us. We appreciate your valuable feedback. We would like to work on improvements as a team for future challenges. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you again when you visit Hawaii.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。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。
The car arrived just in time. All four groups of customers were Japanese. The price was affordable and the service was comfortable. I will use it again. Thank you.
ジャストタイムで車が来ました。4組のお客さんは全員日本人でした。お値段も安く快適です。また利用します。ありがとうございました
On the way back, we had a driver who spoke Japanese. It seemed that he originally lived in Japan, so we were able to talk a lot about Japan and Hawaii. It was a very relaxing time at the end. The driving was very careful, and he arrived right on time for the pick-up. It was a great help.
帰りは日本語話せるドライバーさんでした。
もともと日本にお住まいだったようで日本のことやハワイの事たくさんお話ができました。
最後にほっとできる時間でした。
運転もとても丁寧で、時間きっかりにお迎えに来てくださいました。
とても助かりました。
We all loved the time spent with Hawaii Parasail, was such an awesome addition to our time here in Oahu! Thank you all so very much!!!
The welcoming guide was polite and great. They discussed the schedule in advance, explaining how much time it would take and which hotels we would be visiting.
迎えのガイドさんが丁寧で良かったです。
スケジュールも先に話してくれて、このくらい時間掛かりますとか、こことここのホテルによりますとか,確りしていました。
The driver was safe and it was good. Since we took a different route from the airport to Waikiki, we were able to see some nice scenery.
ドライバーさん安全運転で、良かったです、空港からワイキキに来る時と、
違うルートを、通ったのでそれなりに、景色が見られました。
From the pick-up to the experience, everything including the talks was enjoyable. It was the best! I work in customer service, and I really learned a lot. It was amazing!
送迎から体験までトークなどすべてを含め楽しませてくれ最高でした僕は接客業ですが本当に勉強させられました最高でした‼
Memorable experience! The crew provided a fun relaxed environment. They were attentive to our needs but allowed you freedom to explore the boat. Excellent snorkeling near the reef. My family had the opportunity to view a variety of sea creatures. Free snacks while sailing was an added bonus. Great overall experience at an economical price.
This was a great show. We have been to luaus before and we promise not to do it again because we feel that they are way overpriced but we decided to gamble on this one since it had great reviews and it sounded different with the rock and roll and boy it did not disappoint. Our whole party of 6 really enjoyed the show from beginning to end. I highly recommend this show to everyone. My favorite was Elvis. Its like watching Vegas in Hawaii. The buffet dinner was good too. The roast pork was great. They also had tofu and other vegetables for my vegan daughter. Very well organized and everybody was great.
I forgot my smartphone on the plane at the airport, which caused a delay. I was worried I wouldn't make it to the bus and considered taking a taxi. However, since several buses were departing regularly, I was able to catch one. There were staff members who spoke Japanese, which made everything very smooth.
The bus from the hotel to the airport was over 10 minutes late, which made me anxious, but it eventually arrived, so I felt relieved.
However, there was one issue. When loading the suitcases, I was asked about the airline. The way they asked was by saying, "Japan? Korea? China?" I misunderstood and thought they were asking about my home country, so I replied "Japan." However, it seemed they were actually referring to Japanese airlines like ANA or JAL. I didn't connect "Japan" with the airline, but my husband realized they were asking about the airline and was able to say "United," so it was fine.
Other passengers who were with us made the same misunderstanding, and their luggage ended up being dropped off at the Japanese airline's area, leading to a situation where they found their luggage missing later. I believe there is an issue with how the driver asked the question.
空港について機内にスマホを忘れてしまい、時間のロスがありました。バスに間に合わないと思いタクシーでいこうかと思っていました。が、バスは何本も随時でていたため、乗ることかできました。日本語が話せるスタッフの方もおられとてもスムーズでした。
ホテルから空港のバスは10分以上遅れてきたので不安になりましたが、遅れてではありますが来たので安心しました。
ただ問題が一つ。スーツケースを積む際、航空会社を聞かれます。その聞き方が『ジャパン?コリア?チャイナ?』と国の名前を言われました。
私は、航空会社を聞かれているとわからず帰る国を聞かれると思い勘違いをして『ジャパン』と言いました。
しかし、彼の言っているジャパンはANAやJALの日本の航空会社かということだったようです。
ジャパン=日本の航空会社とピンときませんでしたが、夫が航空会社を聞いているとわかり『ユナイテッド』と伝えることができたので大丈夫でした。
私たちと乗っていた他のお客さんは、同じ勘違いをしてしまい、荷物が日本の航空会社のところでおろされてしまい、その後降りた所で荷物がないという事態になっていました。
ドライバーさんの聞き方に問題があると思います。
I had a great time.
It became a wonderful memory.
I bought some photos.
Buying with cash is cheaper than using a card.
Since I also gave a tip, I recommend participating with cash.
とても楽しかったです
素敵な思い出になりました。
写真買いました。
現金で買う方がカードより安いです
チップも渡したので、現金をもって参加されることをおすすめします。
The concert features high-level singers and dancers, making it a rich experience. The appeal lies in being able to enjoy hula and fire dancing simultaneously, but the number of dancers left a slightly small impression.
歌手やダンサーのレベルは高く内容が濃いコンサートです。フラやファイヤーダンスも同時に楽しめる点が魅力ですが、ダンサー数の規模感が若干こじんまりの印象は残りました。
Thank you very much for visiting us this time. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you 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。
We didn't apply for VIP, so we first had a meal on the terrace while listening to music and watching hula. The food was delicious! We moved indoors and got to see a lot of songs and hula in the show. The hula was really cute!
私たちはVIPを申し込まなかったので、まずはテラスで音楽を聴きながらとフラを見ながら食事しました。ご飯も美味しかったです!室内に移動してショーも沢山の歌やフラを見れました。フラがすごく可愛かったです!
Thank you very much for visiting Rock Aflah.
We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the hula, food, and the show!
We look forward to your next visit with all our staff!

WE CAN'T WAIT TO DO IT AGAIN. THE STAFF WAS AMAZING, EASY TO WORK WITH, PATIENT, FUN, EXCITING, AND EXPERIENCED. I HAVE 2 11YR OLDS AND IT WAS THEIR FIRST TIME. THEY DID A GREAT JOB WITH THE HELP OF THE CREW. WE WILL DEFINITELY DO IT AGAIN.
There was a staff member who spoke Japanese, but the driver who guided us afterward spoke English. It seems there was a misunderstanding about the hotel we were going to, and it took quite a while before we could get on the bus...
日本語が出来るスタッフさんは居ましたが、その後案内してくれたドライバーさんが英語でした。どうやら行くホテルを聞き間違えられていたようで、バスに乗るまでに結構時間がかかりました…
The boat staff was absolutely fantastic! They spoke primarily in English and had a fun vibe, but their tone was easy to understand. The highlight was definitely the parasailing. It was incredibly beautiful and felt amazing. There were even a few little surprises... Above all, I was happy that my wife enjoyed it. There was an elderly mother in our group, and she had a great time. My daughter was a bit nervous at first, but it seems she enjoyed it. The newlyweds also looked like they were having a lot of fun.
ボートのスタッフがまず最高!英語主体でノリがいいけど、でも解かりやすい感じの口調で喋ってくれる。又、一番は、パラセイル。すごく綺麗で、気持ち良かった。ちょっとしたサプライズもあったり・・・。何より、妻が喜んでくれたのが嬉しかった。同行の中に年配のお母さんがいたけど、楽しんでいた。娘は、初めてちょっとビビってた。でも、楽しかったみたいだ。新婚さんも楽しそうだった。
I used it for a round trip. Although I waited a bit from the airport, on the way back, the car arrived earlier than the pickup time, and I was able to get to the airport smoothly. It was very convenient.
往復利用しました。
空港からは少し待ったものの
帰りはピックアップタイムより早めに車が来てスイスイ空港まで行く事ができました。
とても便利でした。
I was unsure whether to choose the 90m or 120m roller coaster since I'm not great with heights, but I went with the 120m option. Surprisingly, because the sea was below, I didn't feel that high up and had a lot of fun. When we dropped close to the water, my feet touched it, but other than that, I didn't get wet at all.
I had a hard time communicating in Japanese; the receptionist could only speak a little. Also, I wasn't sure about the tipping amount or when to give it, so we ended up giving $10 for the two of us when we disembarked.
ジェットコースターがまるでダメな私なので90mにするか120mにするかで迷いましたが120mにしました。そんな私でも下が海だからなのか、そんなに高さも感じず、とても楽しめました。
海すれすれまで高度が下がった時は足がつきましたが、それ以外は全く濡れませんでした。
日本語は殆ど通じませんでした。受付のお姉さんが少し話せる程度でした。
あと、チップの金額と渡すタイミングがわからなかったので下船事に2人で10ドル渡してきました。
The shuttle arrived on time, and although the staff were not Japanese, they explained things in broken Japanese, which was fine!
It was refreshing to head out to sea by boat.
We flew with three people, and although I thought it might be scary because it was higher than I imagined, it was quiet up there with hardly any turbulence, allowing us to enjoy the scenery. My 7-year-old daughter was also excited!
We were able to take photos ourselves and took many pictures.
It was a great experience!
時間通りに送迎車が来ましたし、スタッフは日本人ではありませんが、カタコトながらに日本語でも説明してくれて問題なし!
ボートで沖に向かうのも爽快でした♪
3人で飛びましたが、想像よりも高くて怖いかなと思いきや、上空は静かでほとんど揺れもなく、景色を楽しめました★7歳の娘も興奮でした♪
自分たちで撮影もでき、沢山写真撮りました。
とても良い体験ができました!
The event was held even in light rain. The April rain was a bit chilly. I experienced the 120m, and it felt great. If it had been sunny, it might have been an even more spectacular view! Maybe I should have gone for the 150m!
小雨でも開催。4月の雨はちょっと寒かったです。120mを体験しました。気持ちよかった。晴れていたら、さらに絶景だったのかな♡150mにしてもよかったかも!
Since it was just before Golden Week, there were only four groups boarding, and there was almost no waiting time. Aside from the fact that the reception area was a bit hard to find, I was quite satisfied.
ゴールデンウィーク前でしたので、乗車も4組と空いていて待ち時間もほとんどありませんでした。受付場所が分かりにくかったところを除けば、十分満足できました。
This was my first time at the hotel, so I confirmed the meeting place. However, since there were many people waiting, I was wondering what would happen. But they called out names loudly, so I raised my hand and responded. It was very helpful.
今回初めてのホテルでしたので集合場所の確認はしました。
しかし、たくさんの人が待っていたのでどうなるか?と思っていましたが、
ちゃんと大きな声で名前を呼んでくれたので、こちらも手を上げて答えました。助かります。
