All Reviews for Trolley & Shuttle to Attractions

This was well worth the money, amazing place, beautiful rainforest, you will get a little wet, and muddy, bring water, our driver Mathew K was great, got us there safe, had water for us at the end, would definitely do it again.

Although I go to the gym, climbing the mountain was quite tough for someone in their 60s. I thought to myself, "This might be my last experience in life?" as I climbed. At the summit, I was able to see the hotel district and the distant sea, making all the sweat and effort worthwhile. It really made me realize that the Earth is round!

They handled the application process for climbing, which you can't do without prior approval, and the entrance fee was included! They also provided water, so all I had to do was show up in sneakers and light workout clothes! There was also a shuttle service to the hotel.

Considering that I would have to check the bus schedule, take the bus, and handle the application myself, I think this was quite a good deal.

ジムに通っているとはいえ、60代のこの身には結構厳しい山登りでした。人生でこれが最後の体験かも？と思いながら登りました。頂上ではホテル街や遠い海原までも一望でき、汗水流して登った甲斐がありました。地球って丸いんだな！って認識できます。
事前申請しないと登れないところを代行してもらえるし、入山料？も込み！　そしてお水も用意してくださり、こちらはスニーカーと軽い運動できる服装で行くだけ！ホテルへの送迎もついていました。
これをバス時間を調べてバスに乗って、事前の申請もして、と考えるとお安いのではないかと思います。

The driver was very kind. Climbing the mountain might be tough, but the beautiful scenery made it very satisfying.

ドライバーの方は、とても親切な方でした。山を登るのは、大変かもしれませんが、綺麗な景色が見られて大満足です。

My wife wanted to visit Diamond Head❣️ Since I was still feeling the fatigue in my legs from the previous day's tour of Pearl Harbor and bowling, I took my time climbing to the top. Even so, I had two hours until the pick-up car arrived, so I was in no rush.

The view was absolutely amazing❣️ It felt great❣️

カミさん所望のダイヤモンドヘッド❣️
前日のパールハーバー見学とボウリングの疲労が脚に残っていたので、休憩しながら登頂しました。それでも、迎えの車まで2時間あったので、余裕でした。
ぐるっとチョーゼッケェー❣️
気持ち良かったぁ❣️

I tried to return to downtown Honolulu around 10 AM from the farmers market, but I couldn't get on due to the crowd. The Green Line has limited service, and since I had plans afterward, I had no choice but to walk back. I wish they would increase the frequency of service or use larger vehicles during the farmers market. I also felt like I wasted my ticket fare.

ファーマーズマーケットから10時頃の便でホノルル市内に戻ろうとしたが、混雑のため乗ることができなかった。グリーンラインは本数が少なく、この後にも予定があったため、やむを得ず歩いて帰ることになった。ファーマーズマーケット開催時は、もう少し運行本数を増やすか、車両を大きいものにしてくれたらいいのになと思った。また、チケット代を損した気分になった。

I participated in the sunset drive for the first time, and it was truly wonderful and moving. I definitely want to go again next time, and I recommend it to everyone.

サンセットのドライブ　初めて参加しましたが　本当に素敵すぎて　感動しました。次回もまた、絶対に行きたいし　みんなにオススメしたちです。

I purchased a four-day ticket and used it. I was able to fully utilize the four days and easily go to the places I wanted to visit. If you prepare your time and destinations well, you can truly appreciate the convenience. I think I will use it again.

4日間のチケットを購入し、利用しました。４日間フルに使って、行きたいところに楽に行くことができました。時間と行先さえしっかり準備しておけば便利さを実感できます。
また利用すると思います。

The driver was very cheerful and it was fun. Thank you very much.
I heard they can communicate in English, but that was not a problem.

とても明るいドライバーさんで楽しかったです。ありがとうございました
英語対応との事でしたが問題ありません。

The day before, I was forced to change the time without any explanation. I had already organized my schedule for that day, so it was very troublesome to have it changed without notice. I at least wanted an explanation. The driver was cheerful and a very nice person.

前日の昼過ぎに、何の説明もなく時間変更を余儀なくされた。その日1日のスケジュールを組み立てていたのに、勝手に変更されて大変困った。せめて説明をしてほしかった。
ドライバーの方は陽気な方でとてもいい人でした。

You can board with a QR code, and there are multiple pick-up points. Most importantly, the female driver was fantastic and really energized the atmosphere inside the vehicle. We also had about a 10-minute stop at a photo spot, which was a lot of fun. If you go to Honolulu, I definitely recommend taking the Blue Line to explore the East Coast!

QRコードで乗車できるし、乗り場もあちこちから乗れるし、なにより女性ドライバーでしたがとても車内を盛り上げてくれるドライバーさんでした、途中の写真スポットも10分程の停車時間もありとても楽しめました。ホノルル行ったらぜひ東海岸周遊するブルーライン乗って欲しいです。

The staff at the ticket counter were smooth in their service and very pleasant. The trolley itself was comfortable, and it was a great time.

チケットカウンターの方の対応がスムーズで
非常に感じのいい方々でした。
トロリー自体も乗り心地が良く、いい時間になりました。

It was great that I could go at my own pace. Since I don't usually exercise, there were times when it was tough to reach the summit. However, when I got to the top, I was filled with a sense of accomplishment. The view of Waikiki from there was breathtaking. I would love to join this tour again someday. Next time, I think I'll choose a time when I can see the sunrise.

マイペースで行けるというのが非常に良かった。自分は普段から運動してないので、頂上まで苦しいこともありましたが、。頂上に着いた時は達成感でいっぱいでした。そして、そこからのワイキキは絶景でした。またいつかこのツアーに参加したいです。次は日の出が見られる時間のにしようと思います。

On the day I used the trolley bus, there was a festival on Kalakaua Avenue, and it was a pedestrian paradise. Because of that, we had to detour via Kuhio Avenue towards the Ala Moana Shopping Center. The roads were crowded, but the driver was cheerful and chatted a lot, which made it enjoyable.

トロリーバスを利用した日は、カラカウア通りでお祭りをやっていて、歩行者天国でした。
そのために、クヒオ通りを迂回してアラモアナショッピングセンター方面へ行きました。
道路は混んでいたけど、運転手さんが陽気な方で、色々喋ってたから楽しかったです。

I previously used a HIS package tour and found it very convenient, so for this individual arrangement, I applied here. This time, I utilized three routes. The local drivers often provided explanations in Japanese and were very enjoyable to be around. Additionally, the drivers were quite humorous and mentioned that the stopping times were carefully scheduled, which can be quite demanding. However, I believe this is due to the fact that it is managed by a Japanese company, ensuring strict oversight. While there may be delays due to road conditions, I think it’s reassuring that they won’t leave early, which is appreciated by Japanese people who are used to punctual transportation.

以前HISのパックツアーで利用した事があり使い勝手が良いので、個人手配の今回はこちらで申し込みしました。
今回は３ルートを利用しました。
現地の運転手の方は日本語で説明をしてくれたり楽しい方が多いです。あと運転手の方が面白おかしく、停車する時間がきちんと細かく設定されていて大変だよーと話していましたが、これはやはり日本の企業が運行している事できっちり管理されているという事だと思います。道路の事情で遅れることはあるかもしれなくても、時間前にさっさと出発してしまう事はないという事だと思うので、時間通りにきっちりした交通機関に慣れている日本人にとってはありがたいと思います。

In recent years, I have often used a bike for transportation, but since my range of movement was limited, I decided to book a trolley for the first time in a while. I found it convenient because it allows access to various places, but unfortunately, there are few lines available except for the pink trolley.

The photo is from when I used the Malama Line and got off to do some sightseeing. After visiting the main tourist spots, I tried to catch the next trolley, but I ended up waiting for a while at the trolley bus stop because I had some extra time. I also wanted to hike Makapu'u on the East Oahu Scenic Line, but since there was quite a long wait for the next trolley, I decided against getting off and just enjoyed the view from the bus window.

Additionally, some drivers speak broken Japanese and do their best to explain the tourist spots, but since everything is in English, I couldn't understand much. Due to the weak yen, prices are high, but it is relatively empty, which makes it comfortable. I would like to see the revival of coupon services like free one-day passes with the purchase of the Lealea Magazine or discounts on multi-day passes, as we had before.

近年はビキを利用して移動することが多かったのですが、行動範囲が限られてしまうため、久しぶりに今回トロリー を申し込みました。
色々な場所に行けるので便利だと感じましたがいかんせん、ピンクトロリー を除くラインの本数が少ないです。
写真はマラマラインを利用して途中下車し、観光した時の写真ですが、観光スポットを一通り回って次の便に乗ろうとしましたが、時間が余ってしまい、トロリー のバス停でしばらく待ちました。
東オアフの絶景ラインもマカプウトレッキングしたいと思っていたのですが、次の便が来るまでかなり時間が開いていたため、下車を断念し、バスの車窓から眺めるだけにしました。
また、運転手さんによっては日本語がカタコトの方がいらして一生懸命観光スポットの説明をしてくださるのですが、全て英語のため、あまり理解できませんでした。
円安で価格が高い事もあり、比較的空いているのでその点は快適です。
以前の様にレアレアマガジン購入で一日券無料や、数日券割引などのクーポンサービスを復活させていただきたいです。

Super easy hiking path and a gorgeous hike all around!

I was drawn to the East Oahu Scenic Line and decided to book it. During my trip to Hawaii two months ago, I enjoyed the Waikiki Trolley service, so this time I took the same East Oahu Scenic Line with the Lealea Trolley. Both drivers were great at keeping the atmosphere lively, but I found Lealea to be just a bit better; it might just be a matter of luck. I booked a plan for 3 nights and 5 days, but on the day of the Aloha Street Jam, even though I waited at Ala Moana, no buses came due to the crowd, and I was able to get back quickly by taking The Bus right in front of me... I only used the trolley 5 times over the 4 days. I thought maybe I should have gotten a one-day pass. For the less frequent services, I lined up about 40 minutes early at the Royal Hawaiian Center for the first bus. I expected it to be a bit easier to hop on, so I hope they increase the frequency for the popular ones. Also, considering the price of The Bus, I felt that the one-day pass was a bit expensive compared to other trolley buses.

東オアフ絶景・ラインに魅力を感じて申し込みました。今回の2ヶ月前のハワイではワイキキトロリーのサービスを申し込み楽しかったので、今回はレアレアトロリーで同じく東オアフ絶景・ラインに乗車しました。どちらも運転手さんが盛り上げ上手で楽しかったですが、レアレアのほうが少しだけ良かったです、これは当たり外れなのかもですね。3泊5日で４日間のプランを申し込みましたが、アロハストリートジャムがあったひは、アラモアナで待っていても混雑からまったくバスがこず、目の前のザバスに乗るとサクサク帰れました…4日間でトロリー使ったのは5回まで。1日券にすれば良かったかな、と思いました。便数が少ないものは、始発のロイヤルハワイアンセンターで40分前ぐらいから並びました。もう少し気軽に乗れると思っていたので、人気のものは動向をみて便数も増やしてほしいです。あと、ザバスの値段を考えると、一日券が少し高いかなぁ、と他のトロリーバスと比べて感じました。

There were a lot of buses, so I was able to board smoothly without much waiting time. It's convenient for going to Farmers and Ala Moana!

本数も多かったのでそんなに待ち時間なくスムーズに乗ることができました。
ファーマーズやアラモアナに行くのに便利です！

The Hilton Islander had a change in its bus stop, so it might be confusing since other buses also stop on the main street. A few people were waiting, and although the bus slowed down a bit, it did not stop. Some people were confused and ran a little, but the bus just went on. It was disappointing. The sunset timing didn't match well depending on the month, so those who wanted to see it returned to the hotel on the Pink Line. The other lines were good.

ヒルトンアイランダーは、停車が、変更になってましたので、メイン通りの他のバスも停車するので、わかりにくいと思いますが、
数人まってましたが、少し低速にはなりましたが、停車しませんでした。
数人が、戸惑って少し走りましたが、そのまま行ってしましました。残念でした。
サンセットは、月によって、うまくタイミングが、合わず、見たい人は、ピンクラインでホテルへ戻りました。
他ラインは、良かったです。

I only rode it once because I was on another trolley tour, but the Pink Line was a comfortable double-decker bus. As a means of transportation, it felt similar to taking a train.

他のトロリー付きのツアーにしていたため、1回しか乗っていませんが、ピンクラインは二階建ての気持ちいいバスでした。
移動手段としては電車的な乗り方です。

The driver was friendly, and although it was mentioned that he couldn't speak Japanese, it seemed his wife was Japanese, so he could speak a little. It was cool in the early morning, and I was able to climb at my own pace. On the way back, he kindly provided bottled water, which tasted very good. When I arrived at the hotel, I made it in time for breakfast, so that was great. I did well at 56 years old!

ドライバーさんも気さくな方で日本語は出来ないと書いてあったけど奥様が日本人だったようで片言ですが良かったです。
早朝で涼しく、自分のペースで登る事が出来ました。帰りにはペットボトルをサービスして下さりとても美味しく感じました。
ホテルに着いたら朝食の時間に間に合い食べる事もできたので良かったです。56才よく頑張りました

It was a bus that went to the Ala Moana Shopping Center from various hotels, and it turned out to be a bit of a sightseeing tour as well. Since it was a bus that you could ride if you had a JCB card, I would have preferred a different bus.

いろんなホテルによってアラモアナショッピングセンターに行くバスでしたが、ちょっとした観光にもなりました♪。ＪＣＢカードを持っていれば乗れたバスでしたので違うバスが良かったです。

The Pink Line one-day pass allows you to ride on the specified date plus the day before or the day after when you exchange it. (You also receive two tickets.) For long distances, I think it's better to use a taxi for a better balance of time and cost, but if you're just going to Ala Moana Shopping Center, the Pink Line is sufficient.

ピンクライン一日券は、引き換えの時に指定日＋指定日の前日か翌日に乗れます。
（乗車券も２枚くれます）遠距離はタクシー使った方が時間とコストのバランスが良いと思うしアラモアナショッピングセンターいく位ならピンクラインで十分かと

The view from the top of Diamond Head early in the morning was amazing. The pickup time was almost accurate, so I was able to participate without any worries.

朝早くから見るダイヤモンドヘッド頂上からの景色は最高でした。迎え時間もほぼ正確で､不安なく参加できました。

It was a pretty easy, well maintained. Interesting factoids.

If you don't participate in the tour and adjust your schedule to the bus times, you can also visit the Diamond Bed, and at the photo spots, the staff will assist you with taking pictures.

ツアーに参加せず、バスの時刻に合わせて行動すればダイアモンドベッドにも行けるし、写真スポットの場所では、スタッフさんによって写真撮影を手伝ってくださります。

The Xplore ride was really fun and brought out the kid in me! If you know a little about VR and Mixed Reality, this experience starts off with Mixed Reality with nice fish and marine life around you and some light educational sections on Waikiki and the beaches. The ride does transition into full VR at times with underwater volcanic vents, above ground volcanic eruption, a 360 visual aerial view above the islands (nice!), and an underwater route with all sorts of aquatic creatures around you, known to be local to the islands and some nice coral (this was my favorite part). There is more light educational pieces dispersed in these full on VR parts as well. The movement of the bus really gives you the sense of “traveling” through the VR worlds and even the fish “swimming” through the bus in Mixed Reality was enhanced by the movement. Our host was wonderful and really explained everything well! The driver was very friendly too. The experience can be heard in Japanese or English. Too me, the only negative, though the headsets are of very high quality, was the pass through video of the outside was a bit unfocused when it was too far in the distance (like the ocean views near Diamond Head). Final thoughts are that it is definitely worth it and please consider supporting this business and others that bring the beauty of nature and the immersion of technology and imagination together!

Taxis are quite expensive, so having this pass is cheap and convenient. I received advice from Mr. Tamura at Bon Voyage Kobe and decided to purchase it. I see, it's highly recommended.

タクシーは結構割高なので　このパスがあれば安くて便利ですと　ボン・ヴォヤージュ神戸の田村さんにアドバイスをいただいて　購入を決定。なるほどお勧めです。

VR has advanced. It felt like I was traveling between the surface and the deep sea, which was a strange sensation. I was also glad to see Diamond Head up close.

VRが進歩していました
地上と深海を行き来しているようで、不思議な感覚でした
ダイヤモンドヘッドも間近で見られて良かったです

I thought it was for kids, but adults can enjoy it too.
VR often makes me feel nauseous, and I'm not good with it, but this time I was fine.
I felt the progress of VR.

子供向けかと思いきや、大人でも楽しめました
VRは気持ちが悪くなりやすく、苦手でしたが、今回は大丈夫でした
VRの進歩を感じました
