All Reviews for Family & Accessible Travel

I took a taxi near the Hilton, but it took some time to find the small ticket booth at the designated location. However, the receptionist was very kind. I arrived earlier than the scheduled time but had to wait. There were ten people at a time, and it was just the four of us along with three foreign couples. We went out to sea by boat, and once the ropes were set, we were able to go parasailing one after another. They helped us with the belt setup inside the boat, and when we flew, we could either land in the water up to our bottoms and be brought back to the boat or just get our toes wet and be lowered into the boat, so my upper body didn’t get wet at all. I didn’t have a change of clothes, so I changed at Ala Moana. You can bring a change bag onto the boat. Since there were four of us in the family and the child is in elementary school, we did it in groups of three. It was special because the child was able to go twice in a row, and they were very satisfied.

ヒルトン近くでタクシーで行きましたが、指定先の小さなチケットブースを

指定時間より前に行きましたが待たされました。

家族４人でこどもが小学生のため、３人づつでやりました。特別なのか子供は２回連続で出来、大満足でした。

The pickup time was three and a half hours before the flight, but the hotel pickup was over 15 minutes late, and I had to call twice to inquire about it. The response was poor. Furthermore, we went to four other hotels in Waikiki, which took an additional 30 minutes. Despite having informed them of the airline, we were all dropped off at Terminal 1 instead of Terminal 2. We ended up walking unnecessarily to change terminals. I think taking a taxi would be cheaper and faster.

ピックアップ時間は、フライトの3時間半前でしたが、ホテルへの迎えは15分以上遅れ、2度も電話で問い合わせをしました。対応も悪い。
さらに、ワイキキ内の他のホテルを4カ所まわりさらに30分経過。
航空会社を伝えていたにも関わらず2タミでなく、1タミで全員降ろされ。。無駄に歩いてターミナルを移動しました。タクシーの方が割安で早いかと思います。

I caught a lot of fish and had a great time! They even grilled the fish for us right there. The fishing technique is a bit challenging, but once you get the hang of it, you can catch a lot!

沢山釣れて遊べました!魚もその場で焼いて食べさせてくれました釣り方は難しいですなパターンを掴めば良く釣れますよ！

After arriving at Honolulu Airport, the shuttle bus arrives at the bus terminal without much waiting. It takes about an hour to get to hotels in Waikiki by either bus or taxi. Taxis are expensive and have been getting pricier each year. I recommend this shuttle bus.

ホノルル空港到着後　それほど待つこともなくバスターミナルにシャトルバスが到着します　バスでもタクシーでもワイキキのホテルまで約1時間はかかります　タクシーは高いです　年々高くなってます　このシャトルバスはおすすめです

Hawaii has a high cost of living, and taxi fares have been rising year by year. While the shuttle bus fare has also increased, it is not significant compared to taxi fares. I definitely recommend making a reservation, as it will get you to the airport at just the right time, allowing you enough time for souvenir shopping and rest.

ハワイは物価が高いです　タクシー代も年々上がってます　当シャトルバス代も値上がりはしていますが　タクシー代に比べればたいしたことはありません
ぜひ　予約することをおすすめします　ちょうど良い時間に空港に着きますのでお土産の購入や休息に十分な時間が確保されます

I boarded the ship after a long time. The always courteous service makes sightseeing enjoyable. This time, I was able to observe sharks, sea turtles, rays, and many other fish, which left me very satisfied. It's rare to encounter a situation as perfect as this, but I think a leisurely stroll underwater is enjoyable, so if you have the time, I definitely think it's worth participating.

久しぶりに乗船しました。いつも丁寧な対応で楽しく観光出来ます、今回はシャーク、ウミガメ、エイ、他多くの魚を観察することが出来非常に満足でした。今回の様な完璧と言える場面にはなかなか遭遇しませんが、ゆっくりと海中散歩は楽しいと思いますので時間合えば是非参加してみる価値はあると思います。

You can bring a small bag, like a backpack, onto the boat and keep it under the seat. I took motion sickness medication, but the boat rocked quite a bit, and I ended up feeling sick. My husband and child seemed to be fine. After parasailing, I felt seasick for about half a day, but even considering that, it was a wonderful opportunity that you don't get to experience often.

リュック程度の小さなカバンは船に持ち込むことができ、椅子の下に置いておけます。酔い止めを飲みましたが、船はかなり揺れるので、酔ってしまいました。主人と子供は大丈夫そうでした。パラセイリング後、船酔いで半日くらい辛かったですが、それを差し引いても、なかなか体験できない素晴らしい機会でした。

Before getting on the boat, I started to feel scared and thought about backing out for a moment, but once I got on and the staff explained everything in a fun and entertaining way, my tension eased! I wasn't scared at all during takeoff or landing! It was amazing!!!

船に乗る前に怖くなってきて少しだけやめようかと思いましたが、船に乗ってスタッフがおもしろおかしく説明してくれたので、緊張感がほぐれました！飛ぶ時も降りる時も怖くなかったです！最高でした！！！

This was such a fun family activity! A first for us, but something we’ll definitely do again when visiting Oahu. The staff was very friendly and clear on what we needed to do. The captain knows what he’s doing. He caught three awesome waves! A must do, especially if you have you get children!

I participated with my elementary school child. There is a reception at the Hilton Hawaiian Village beach, so when we went there, we were told to head to the boat dock at the end of the pier. It was close, and since that was the only option, it was easy to find our way.

There were about 30 participants in the tour at the same time. First, we took a boat out to sea and then transferred to a submarine. We were blessed with good weather, and the scenery during the boat ride was very beautiful and enjoyable.

The submarine experience was relatively monotonous, but I was satisfied because we were able to see sharks and rays.

小学生の子供と二人で参加しました。
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジのビーチに受付があるのでそこへ行くと、桟橋の先の船乗り場に行くように言われました。近いし、それしかないので、迷いようもなく簡単でした。
ツアーは、同じ時間帯に、30人ぐらいかなと思いますが、参加者がいました。まず船で沖合に行き、潜水艦に乗り換えました。お天気に恵まれて、船での移動も景色がとても良くて楽しかったです。
潜水艦の方は割と単調で、でもサメやエイも見れたので満足です。

I used this service to reduce stress during the peak Obon season. It's convenient, but the price is still high, so I give it 4 stars.
- After exiting the personal exit, the staff is hard to understand.
- Use the staff in the yellow aloha shirts as a landmark; when you go to the designated area, there is a small desk for check-in.
- Since other flights arrive together, the waiting time is long. Given the price, I wish they would operate more consistently.

今回はお盆ピーク時期のためストレス軽減のため利用しました。便利だが、やはり値段は高いので星4つ。
⚫︎個人出口を出たあと、係員がわかりづらい。
⚫︎黄色いアロハシャツの誘導係を目印に、
言われた場所へ行くと小さいデスクあり受付。
⚫︎他便到着もまとめて同乗するため、待ち時間が長い。この値段であればもう少しコンスタントに運行してほしい。

We participated as a three-generation family. My mother is elderly, and my child has no surfing experience, so this time we tried surfing as an activity. Both of them were thrilled to ride the waves for the first time. I highly recommend it!

家族3世代で参加しました。母は高齢だし、子はサーフィン経験なしなので、今回はこのアクティビティで波乗り体験をしました。二人とも初めて波に乗って大喜びしてました。オススメです！

Until last year, I participated in sailing with other companies. During my stay at Hilton Grand Waikikian, the schedule was good, so I chose the Aloha sailing departing from in front of the Hilton. The weather was clear, and the crew was cheerful and friendly, making for a fun time. I would like to participate again next year.

昨年までは他社のセーリングに参加していました。ヒルトングランドワイキキアンでの滞在で日程も良く、ヒルトン前の出航のアロハ号のセーリングを選びました。
天気も快晴でクルーも明るくにこやかで楽しい一時を過ごせました。
来年も参加したいと思います。

It was helpful that the cost was lower compared to taking a taxi. Since it was a partner hotel, I was taken right in front of the hotel. Additionally, my flight was changed at the last minute, but they were able to accommodate the time change as well.

タクシーに比べると費用が抑えられたので助かりました。
提携ホテルだったのでホテルの前まで連れもらえました。
また搭乗便が直前で変更になったのですが時間の変更の対応もしてもらえました。

The reception staff and the activity coordinator couldn't speak Japanese, but they were very polite and provided clear instructions, which made me feel very reassured!

The activity itself was also very interesting, and the coordinator was very engaging, which made me extremely satisfied!

　受付の方もアクティビティ担当の方も、日本語は話せませんでしたが、凄く丁寧に教えて下さりとても安心できました！

　またアクティビティ自体もとても面白く、担当の方も盛り上げて下さり大変満足です！

We participated as a couple, and although we don't speak much English, it wasn't a problem at all. The reservation confirmation emails were all in English, but with Google Translate, we were able to understand the meeting location perfectly. We took the bus from our hotel in Waikiki to the nearest stop and walked about five minutes to the port. (By the way, a local Japanese person informed us that Google Maps provides the most accurate bus schedules and stop locations, and they were right—it was very convenient.)

The boat is named Moana, and there is a tour sign in front of the boat, making it easy to find. However, as others have mentioned, we had to wait about 20 minutes from the meeting time, which made us a bit anxious. (Most participants arrived more than 15 minutes late. Is it just Japanese people who are punctual? Haha.)

Once the tour started, the explanations were only in English, but I understood that we shouldn't go to the back of the boat, we should keep a certain distance if turtles approach, and when the staff called out "Moana," we should board the boat. I could only understand these points, but it wasn't a problem at all.

We were able to see many turtles up close! There were also five or six other tour boats in the same area, with dozens of people entering the water, so it was a bit challenging to swim without bumping into others. However, there were plenty of turtles to see, and it was adorable to watch them come up to the surface for air. We also saw several types of fish.

Just keep in mind that it wasn't the colorful small fish swarming around the coral that you might typically imagine with snorkeling; it was primarily a turtle-focused tour, so it's best to go with that understanding.

Similar tours with Japanese-speaking staff seem to cost around $120, but if the content is not significantly different, I think this tour is a great deal.

Overall, we were very satisfied!

夫婦で参加し、英語はほぼできませんがほとんど問題ありませんでした。
予約連絡メールもすべて英語ですが、Google翻訳でしっかり集合場所も分かるので、ワイキキのホテルからザバスで最寄りまで行き、港を5分ほど歩いて到着しました。（ちなみに、ザバスの時刻表やバス停の場所はGoogleの経路検索が一番正確だと現地の日本人に教えていただき、その通りですごく便利でした。）
モアナという名前の船で、船の前にツアーの看板も出てるのでわかりやすいです。
ただ、他の方も書いているように集合時間から20分ほど待たされたので少々不安にはなりました。（そもそも参加者もほとんど15分以上遅れてきました。時間守るのは日本人ぐらいなんでしょうか？笑）

ツアーが始まってからも英語のみの説明ですが、船の後ろには行かないこと、亀が近づいてきても一定の距離を取ること、スタッフが「モアナー」と呼び込みかけたら船に上がること、ぐらいしか理解できなかったですが何ら問題なかったです。

実際に亀を間近でたくさん見れました！
他のツアーの船も5，6隻同じ同じ場所でそれぞれ数十人が海に入るので人にぶつからないように泳ぐのが少し大変ですが、何匹も亀がいるのでしっかり見ることができました。海面に息継ぎに上がってくるのが可愛かったです。
他にも数種類のお魚も見ることができました。

ただ、よくシュノーケルでイメージする色とりどりの小魚が珊瑚に群がるような感じではないので、あくまで亀主体のツアーという理解で行かれた方が良いです。

日本語スタッフがいる類似ツアーは120ドルするようですが、もしも内容にあまり差がないようならとてもお得だと思いました。

全体的には満足です！

Me and my wife did this for the first time ever… it was a great experience… Hawaiian Parasail is the one to choose when doing this … everyone was great… easy place to find and very helpful and smooth check in… right next to the Hilton Hawaiian Village… just amazing views on the 1000 ft option… the guys on the boat knew what they were doing and did a great job… we would choose them again in a second…!!!!!!

Cons: Location wasn’t too clear, better signage in the future would be great.

Buoyant donut was too small for the amount or people, so lots of bumping and kicking, including from the trainer. A bigger float donut would be perfect.

Water was murky, but not much can be done about that. Maybe a heads up from the diver if they have an indication of the water condition before hand would help.

Pros: Diver was great in making sure that we got to see a few fish. He also dove down to grab some of the water life and we got a chance to hold them in our hands.

We brought our own snorkel and mouth piece, and diver was very helpful in making sure it was secure to their masks.

Diver was very knowledgeable and got us checked out with our photos and videos in hand very quickly.

Definitely recommend this for super beginners!

The delay was inconvenient, but I appreciated your patience. It's very reassuring to know that I've already paid and there are no worries about being overcharged.

便が遅延しましたが待っていてくださり、助かりました。
支払い済みでぼったくりの心配がないのはとても安心です。

We participated at the request of our 8-year-old child. When we actually got on the boat, they seemed a bit anxious, but once we were on together, they were squealing with joy. After getting off, they happily told the crew "ONE MORE." The whole family had a great time. Thank you!

8歳の子供の希望で参加しました
実際船に乗ると不安そうでしたがいざ父親の私と2人で乗るとキャーキャー騒いで楽しんで降りてからクルーにONE MOREと言って喜んでました。家族皆が楽しめました。ありがとうございます。

The shuttle did not arrive at the meeting point even after five minutes, so I called to inquire. I was informed that there was a parade that day, causing a major traffic jam, and that it would be delayed by ten minutes. In the end, the shuttle arrived about 30 minutes late, but while waiting, various people were talking about the heavy traffic, so I didn't feel particularly anxious. They picked me up with plenty of time to spare for my flight, so I felt reassured about that. It might have been difficult due to the parade, but it would have been better if they could have come right in front of the hotel where I was staying. It was tough to move around with large luggage and a child.

集合場所に5分経ってもシャトルが来なかったので電話で問い合わせてみたら、その日はパレードがあり大渋滞をしていて10分遅れるとのことでした。
結局、シャトルは30分くらい遅れて来ましたが、待っている間にも、道が大渋滞しているといろんな人達が話していたので特に不安になることもなく待てました。
フライトにもじゅうぶん間に合う時間でピックアップして頂けるので、その点に関しては安心です。
パレードの日で難しかったのかもしれませんが、できれば宿泊しているホテル前まで来て頂けたら良かったです。大きな荷物を持って子供を連れて歩いて移動するのは大変でした。

It says in English, but it's okay if you speak broken Japanese.
They will teach you how to use the equipment step by step.
Taking commemorative photos is optional, but it's worth the cost.
They take over 100 shots and give you an SD card with the photos.
Also, say "Japan okay!" and they'll drop you into the sea.
It's refreshing!
I want to challenge myself again next year.

英語と書いてありますが、カタコト日本語大丈夫です。
装備も手取り足取り教えてくれます。
記念の写真はオプションですが、払う価値あります。
１００枚以上のショットを撮影、SDカードで渡してくれます。
あとジャッポーンオッケーと言いましょう！
そうすると海へと落としてくれます。
爽快ですよ！
来年もチャレンジしたいと思います。

Awesome experience highly recommend they were on time. Prompt efficient, friendly so much fun great music great staff again. Don’t miss it if you’re in Hawaii!!!

In the first 20 minutes, there was a training session for all participants, and they provided one-on-one instruction. After that, they carefully guided us around Magic Island and its surroundings, with staff positioned at the front and back of the line, allowing us to enjoy the experience without any worries. Additionally, they took photos and videos at each spot, which was great, and I wanted to recommend it to my acquaintances.

While I have no complaints about the experience itself, when we returned to the starting point and were about to leave, they asked for a tip. Of course, I was aware of this in advance and had prepared for it, but I found it questionable that we couldn't leave until we paid. Moreover, we were seated next to another group, which forced us to tip the same amount, leaving me with a disappointing feeling as I left that place.

最初の20分ぐらいで、参加者全員に講習があり、付きっきりで教えてくれた。その後、マジックアイランドやその周辺を、列の前後をスタッフで挟みながら丁寧に付いて回ってくれて、何一つ不安なく楽しめた。また、スポット毎に、写真やビデオ撮影をしてくれて、とても良く、知人にも紹介したいと思った。
これ自体は文句のつけようがないが、出発地点に戻ってきて、さあ、帰ろうとしたら、チップをくれ、と言う。もちろん、それは事前に知っていたし、準備もしていたが、支払うまで出れないようにするのはいかがなものか。しかも、他のグループと隣同士に座らされたので、同額にせざるを得ず、残念な気持ちで、その場所を後にした。

I used the Rock-a-Flush Show Luau for the first time!

It was our honeymoon in Hawaii, filled with first-time experiences! I was a bit anxious about fully enjoying Hawaii, so I booked this show to feel that Hawaiian vibe. To sum it up, I truly believe it was a great decision to make the reservation.

First, we received a beautiful lei made of fresh flowers! It was a bit exciting to receive that coveted lei from a hula girl, just like I had seen on TV! After that, we were kindly shown to our seats, and while enjoying a Mai Tai welcome drink and welcome pineapple, we were entertained by live ukulele performances for each guest, creating a welcoming atmosphere during the wait!

Then the luau began! We enjoyed beautiful hula dances by the hula girls and took part in an authentic hula lesson, making my heart feel Hawaiian. After the hula dance show, we indulged in a delightful buffet. The local dishes, fresh fruits, and grilled foods were all amazing, and by this point, both my eyes and stomach were completely satisfied!

But this is just the beginning! We moved to the show venue, where the hula dance evolved with the times, and the dynamic dances and songs kept raising our excitement! The final fire show was mesmerizing, and I couldn't take my eyes off it for a second! I never expected to be so moved, and both my husband and I truly felt that making the reservation was the right choice.

ロック・ア・フラショー ルアウを初めて利用しました！

初めてのハワイで初めて尽くしのハネムーン！ハワイを満喫できるか不安もあり、ハワイっぽさを感じたくこのショーを予約！
結論から言って、予約して本当に良かったと心から思います。

先ずは生花で作られたレイのプレゼント！テレビで見てたあの憧れのレイをフラガールから貰えるなんて、ちょっと嬉しい！
その後丁寧に席に案内され、マイタイのウェルカムドリンクとウェルカムパイナップルを楽しみワクワクしながら待っていると、ウクレレ演奏をゲスト毎に生演奏で披露してくれ、待ち時間も楽しませてくれるウェルカム感！
そこからルアウのスタート！美しいフラガールによるフラダンスを楽しみ、本格的なフラレッスンを受けて、私の心もハワイアン。
フラダンスショーが終わってからはお楽しみのブュッフェ。地元料理や新鮮なフルーツ、グリル料理はどれも最高で、ここまでで既に目も胃袋も満足感間違いなし！

でもここからが本番です！ショーの会場へ移動し、時代と共に進化を遂げいくフラダンス、躍動感溢れるダンスに歌でどんどんテンションが上がっていきます！ラストのファイヤーショーは一瞬たりとも目が離せませんでした！こんなに感動するとは思っておらず、夫婦揃って本当に予約して良かったと心から思いました。

As soon as I picked up my luggage, I found the yellow Roberts Hawaii kiosk counter, which was the meeting point. It stood out with its bright yellow color, so I recognized it immediately. When I spoke to the staff at the counter, they walked with me to the boarding area and guided me. I would like to use this service again.

手荷物を受け取ってすぐにある黄色いロバーツハワイのKIOSKカウンターが集合場所で、写真の通り黄色が目立っていたのですぐに分かりました。
カウンターのスタッフに声をかけると、乗り場まで一緒に歩いて案内してくれました。
また利用したいと思います。

This activity was great for beginners. The instructor was amazing and made sure everyone had a good time.
The only drawback that day was water was very murky and made it difficult to see as many see fish and other sea creatures.
I would highly recommend this activity and instrutor.

I got lost and arrived late for the meeting time, but the staff kindly guided me. The moving boat was going quite fast, and I was filled with fear thinking about being pulled at that speed, but once I took off, I didn't feel the speed in the sky and was able to enjoy the scenery gracefully. Since the boat sways a lot, I think it's better to take motion sickness medication.

道に迷ってしまい集合時間に遅れて到着したのですが、スタッフさんが優しく案内してくださいました。移動の船はかなりのスピードが出ていて、この速さで引っ張られるのかとかなり恐怖心を煽られましたが、飛んでみると空の上ではスピードは感じず優雅に景色を楽しむことができました。
船の揺れがすごいので酔い止めは飲んだ方が良いと思います。

This is my second experience, following last year. At first, I feel nervous, but it's very pleasant and a fun activity.

去年に続き、2回目の体験です。
初めはドキドキしますが、とても気持ちがよく、楽しいアクティビティです。

Start from the beach at the Royal Hawaiian.
When you show the VELTRA voucher (on your smartphone screen) at the poolside reception of the Royal Hawaiian, your check-in is complete. You can take off your shoes and have your bag stored. There may be someone who speaks Japanese among the staff.

We participated as two adults and three children (a high schooler, a middle schooler, and an elementary schooler), and we all got on one canoe, along with the captain and the paddler, totaling seven people. Everyone except for the small children basically needs to paddle. It requires quite a bit of strength. It can be tiring.

However, the refreshing feeling of gliding smoothly over Waikiki Beach is wonderful. You typically make about three round trips. (There isn't much time to take photos, but I think it's possible to take selfies if you waterproof your device perfectly.)

Additionally, they take photos for you, and if you pay, they have a system to send them to you online. I think it was around $60.

ロイヤルハワイアンの砂浜からスタート。
ロイヤルハワイアンのプールサイドの受付にベルトラバウチャー（スマホ画面）を見せると受付完了。靴を脱いで、バッグも預かってもらえます。女性の日本語がわかる方がいらっしゃる場合があります。

大人2人子供3人（高校生、中学生、小学生）で参加しましたが、1台のカヌーにのり、船長と漕ぎ手が乗り合計7人でのります。小さな子供以外は、基本的に漕ぐ必要があります。結構な力で漕ぎます。疲れます。

ただ、ワイキキビーチを颯爽と滑る爽快さは素晴らしい。大体３往復くらいしてくれます。（写真を撮る余裕はあまりないですが、防水完ぺきにして自撮りすることは可能と思います）

なお、写真は先方で撮ってくれていますが、お金を払えばネットで送ってくれるシステムです。60ドルくらいだった気がします。
