All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

When we boarded, there happened to be no one else, so it was just our group. Because of that, we had a sense of privacy, and we really enjoyed ourselves; it was a wonderful experience.

乗った時はたまたま他の方がいなかったので私たち１組だけでした
その為プライベート感もあり、楽しませてもらい素晴らしい体験になりました。

I went for the 150m one. Everyone else on the same boat chose the 120m. Honestly, I think I should have gone with the 120m, haha! It was incredibly high and way too scary, I screamed a lot!! The staff were super enthusiastic and it was really fun! Even when others were jumping, the boat was flying around, so it was enjoyable the whole time, even when I wasn't jumping!

150mのやつにしました。一緒の船に乗ってた人たちはみんな120mにしてました。正直120mにするべきだと想います笑
めちゃくちゃ高くて怖すぎて叫びまくりました！！スタッフのひとはノリノリで本当に楽しいです！他の人が飛んでる時は船がぶっ飛ばしてるので自分が飛んでない時もずっと楽しいです！

It's overwhelmingly compact and close compared to other Cirque du Soleil stages. I was moved as I could even hear the performers' breathing and the intensity of the performance.

他のシルク・ド・ソレイユのステージよりも圧倒的にコンパクトで近いです
迫力と演者さんの息遣いまできこえてくるようで感動しました

I was excited from the beginning to the end. I highly recommend this to anyone who hasn't experienced it yet. I plan to visit Hawaii with my son's family next autumn, and I definitely want to show this to them.

始まりから終わりまで大変ワクワクさせていただきました。
これを体験されてない方は是非お勧めしたいです。
次回秋には息子家族と渡ハ予定ですが、必ず見せたいと思います。

The staff was so energetic and fun. The trip was smooth despite the waves. Our drinks never went empty.

On the day, the weather was such that it rained intermittently, causing rain to drip through the gaps in the table's umbrella, leaving the table and our shoulders somewhat wet during the meal.

The service itself was excellent, and the main dishes were delicious, so I highly recommend it!

When I mentioned that it was a wedding, they surprised us with a celebratory cake and kind words.

However, since it rains a lot in Hawaii, I would have preferred if there were no gaps in the umbrella…

当日は雨が降ったり止んだりといった天気だったためテーブルのパラソルの隙間から雨が落ちてきてテーブルや肩がそれなりに濡れる中での食事でした。

サービス自体はとても良く、メインの料理も美味しかったためオススメです！

ウェディングであることを伝えたらお祝いのケーキや言葉をかけていただきました。

ただ、ハワイは雨も多いのでできればパラソルの隙間は無くして欲しかった…

I felt nostalgic listening to songs by Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. Especially, the impersonator of Michael Jackson was quite similar (a bit taller).

エルビス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンの歌が懐かしかった。
特にマイケル・ジャクソンはそっくりさん(背が少し高い)でした。

On the morning of the day, we arrived at the location while listening to our driver Matthew's enjoyable stories (I only understood about half of it, though) in the pleasant weather. We had a sufficient two hours, and we took our time climbing while taking lots of photos. When we reached the top, we saw a rainbow in the distance. I was moved and truly felt that it was worth coming. As we slowly descended and bought souvenirs, I was happy to receive some water. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

当日朝、心地よい天気の中、ドライバーのマシューさんの楽しいお話を聞きながら(半分くらいしか理解力ありませんでしたが)現地に着きました。2時間という十分な時間があり、写真をたくさん撮りながらゆっくり登っていきました。登り切ったとき、遠くに虹が出ているのが見えました。感動して本当に来て良かったと思いました。ゆっくり降りてお土産買って戻るとお水をいただいて嬉しかったです。素敵な経験をありがとうございました！

The guide who came to pick us up was so cheerful that the trip there and back was never boring!

Diamond Head was not as tough as I expected, and I was able to enjoy the scenery while climbing. The view from the top was amazing, and when we came down, the guide was there to pick us up again, making the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable!

Thank you very much.

お迎えに来てくれたガイドさんが陽気すぎて行き帰りが全然退屈では無かったです！

ダイアモンドヘッドは思ったより過酷では無く景色を楽しめながら登れたし頂上の景色は最高でしたし降りたらまたガイドさんがちゃんと迎えに来てくれて全然ストレスなく楽しめました！

ありがとうございました。

During my last trip to Hawaii, I wanted to try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), but I didn't have the courage to challenge myself, and I regret that... So when the topic of a trip to Hawaii came up this time, I decided I would definitely try SUP.

I researched various options to figure out when and where would be best! Considering our travel plans, the time for SUP, and our physical condition, we chose the SUP tour with Veltra. It was a day with high waves, but in the beautiful sea, I was able to do it surprisingly well by following the instructions given, and I was very happy. It became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much! 😊

前回のハワイ旅行の時も､サップしたかったのですが、勇気が無く挑戦しなかったのが、悔いが残ってて…今回ハワイ旅行の話が出た時､サップしようと決めてました。
それで､いつ､どこでしたら良いのか⁉️色々調べて移動やサップの時間など自分たちの体調なども考慮してベルトラのサップにしました。波の高い日でしたが、綺麗な海で教えられた通りすると､意外と出来るもので、とても嬉しかったです。良い思い出になりました。ありがとうございました😊

I booked this for a trip to Hawaii with my father.

It was conveniently located in the Royal Hawaiian Center in the heart of Waikiki.

Before the show, there was a buffet with desserts and welcome drinks. The show featured hula, Tahitian dance, fire knife performances, and even tributes to Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, all with an intensity that exceeded my expectations! It was a fantastic blend of Hawaiian culture and rock 'n' roll, and I enjoyed it from start to finish.

I was especially surprised when I received a ring during the Elvis Presley performance! It became the best memory of my trip with my father.

The staff were cheerful, the venue was clean, and the sound and lighting were professional. I highly recommend this for anyone looking to have a fun night in Hawaii. I would love to go again when I return to Waikiki!

父と二人のハワイ旅行で、こちらを予約して行きました。

ワイキキ中心部のロイヤル・ハワイアン・センター内でアクセスが良かったです。

ショーの前にはビュッフェがあり
デザートやウェルカムドリンクもありました。
ショーはフラ、タヒチアンダンス、ファイヤーナイフ、エルビス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンのステージまであり、想像以上の迫力！
ハワイらしさとロックンロールが融合したショーで最初から最後まで楽しめました。

特にエルビス・プレスリーのパフォーマンスでは、なんと指輪をいただけてびっくり！父との旅の最高の思い出になりました。

スタッフの方も明るく、会場もきれいで、音響や照明も本格的。ハワイで楽しい夜を過ごしたい方には本当におすすめです。またワイキキに来たら行きたいです！

There were only the two of us Japanese, and we were overwhelmed by the lively energy of the Westerners in the music. However, we had a great time. When disembarking, the staff helped us with the timing of the waves to keep us as dry as possible.

日本人は私達2人だけで、ミュージックに欧米の人達のノリノリで圧倒されてしまう。
だけど、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
下船時には波のタイミングをスタッフがなるべく濡れないようにサポートしてくれた。

A trip to Hawaii with my 86-year-old mother and three couples in their 50s. We planned to spend a relaxing seven nights at the Hilton Grand Islander time share. However, I remembered that my mother had expressed interest in parasailing, so I checked out Veltra later in the trip. There were discounts for early morning sessions, and the meeting point was about a 10-minute walk from the hotel. I wasn't sure if all three of us could fly together, so I called to inquire (in English). They informed me that depending on the weather, if the captain deemed it possible, all three could go together; if not, one person would fly twice, so we wouldn't have to fly with strangers. I quickly made an online reservation for the next morning! In the end, all three of us flew together, and we were all very satisfied with the tour.

On the day of the activity, I thought it best to bring as little as possible, so I only took towels, water, and cash for tips for the number of people. However, I didn't have enough cash to purchase the paid photos, so I had to return to the hotel to get my credit card. Since you generally don't get wet, I think one towel per group is sufficient.

86歳の母と50代夫婦3人のハワイ旅行。ヒルトングランドアイランダーのタイムシェアで7泊の基本のんびりと過ごすだけの予定でした。ただ母が以前からパラセーリングに興味があると言ってたのが気になり、旅も後半に入ってからベルトラをチェック。朝早くなら割引もあり、集合場所もホテルから歩いて10分ほどの場所。ただ、3人一緒に飛べるのかがはっきりしなかったので、電話（英語）で問い合わせると、天候によりキャプテンの判断で3人が可能なら3人、難しい場合は1人が2回飛ぶ形で2人づつということで、知らない人と飛ぶことはないとの回答だったので、早速翌朝の回をネット予約し決行することに！結果3人一緒に飛べて3人とも大満足のツアーでした。

当日はなるべく少ない荷物と思い、人数分のタオルと水とチップ用の現金だけを持って行きましたが、有料の写真を購入するお金の持ち合わせがなく、ホテルにクレジットカードをとりに戻りました。基本濡れないので、タオルもグループで一枚あれば十分と思います。

This was before the pandemic, but when I used it before, they guided us around places like Izumo Taisha. The conversation was enjoyable! I was expecting that again, but none of the drivers understood Japanese. It was better when they at least said they were studying. Ah… there was no guide, and the level has dropped. It was disappointing even though they took us to various places.

コロナ前にはなりますが、前に利用した際は出雲大社方面などはガイドしてくれていました。お話が楽しかった！それを期待して乗ったら、どの運転手も、日本語わかりません。勉強中ですって言ってくれたらマシな方。
あー…ガイドさんも居ないしレベル落ちたなと。色々連れて行ってくれても残念でした。

It wasn't too long, and I was able to see it from a very close seat, so it felt like it went by in a flash. The performers used their well-trained bodies, and their performances were amazing, often leaving me breathless. Additionally, the scene where they drew pictures in the sand was captivating and entertaining. I didn't feel much of a storyline, but the frequent transitions kept the production engaging. It was refreshing to see the audience being involved in the performance. This might be a new form of entertainment.

長すぎもなく、とても近い席で見れたのであっというまでした。鍛え抜かれた身体を使い、演技者のパフォーマンスが素晴らしく，息を呑む事もしばしばでした。また、砂の絵を描くシーンでは、面白くて見入ってしまいました。ストーリー性はあまり感じなかったのですが、切り替えが多くて飽きない演出でした。会場のお客さんを取り込み、パフォーマンスをさせたのは新鮮な印象でした。新しいエンターティメントかもしれないですね。

I participated with my daughter, who said she wanted to fly in the sky. I thought she might be a little scared, but she was flying higher than the birds and was having an amazing time! The staff were very kind to the children, which helped ease their nerves. She said she wants to fly again, so I hope we can experience it once more. Thank you very much!

空を飛びたいと言ってた娘と参加。実際は少し怖がるかと思っていましたが、鳥よりも高い所を飛んでいて、すごーい！最高と楽しんでいました。スタッフの方も子どもに良くしていただいて、緊張がほぐれたと思います。また空飛びたいと言っていたので、また体験できたらと思っています。ありがとうございました。

This cruise was a blast. Bartenders are heavy handed and super friendly. Everyone aboard is just looking for a good time and we were glad to be a part of it. Would go every night if we could.

On the day of the reservation, I received an SMS saying, "Please call." I'm not very good at English, but I tried calling anyway. It didn't connect. I sent a message explaining that and also mentioned my difficulty with English. I received an immediate reply saying, "The departure from Waikiki Beach has been canceled due to high waves," but "we can depart as scheduled from Kewalo Harbor."

When I looked up the location, I found it was within walking distance from Ala Moana Center, which actually worked out better for my schedule. The smooth communication made me feel at ease. I arrived at Kewalo Harbor at the revised time, and a bright and friendly crew welcomed us. They kept the atmosphere lively with various activities throughout the trip.

The boat was very clean, and the restrooms were also well-maintained.

Overall, it became the best memory. With unlimited drinks, including alcohol, in Waikiki, I think this price offers great value. This time, I participated with a group of 15 for a company trip.

とにかく最高の思い出となりました
ワイキキでアルコール含む飲み放題も付いて、このお値段はコスパ最高だと思います
今回は社員旅行の15名で参加しました

Everything was perfect and beautiful, and I was moved. It was about an hour and a half that went by in the blink of an eye! I was in the front row of the back seats, but I was happy when the cast waved at me as they passed by in the aisle right in front of me.

なにもかも完璧で美しく、感動しました。
あっという間の約１時間半でした！
後方席の最前列でしたが、目の前の通路をキャストが通られる際に、手を振ってくれたりして嬉しかったです。

It was truly amazing. A valuable experience. Especially the wonderful female guide who showed us around and even took photos for us. It became the best memory of this trip to Hawaii!

ほんとに最高でした。
貴重な体験。
特に素敵な女性ガイドさんが、色々と案内してくれて、さらに写真も撮って頂ける。
今回のハワイで一番の思い出となりました！

I chose "Rock-a-Hula" because I wanted to experience a Hawaiian show, referencing many reviews from others.

We toasted with a Mai Tai welcome drink during the time from check-in to dinner. A local lady played the ukulele and came to our table to chat with us in broken Japanese. The buffet dinner was organized by table, so the last person in line had to wait a bit.

The pineapple displayed on the table was cut to be eaten from the inside, serving as a bowl. I realized it was meant to be shared with the people at the table, but I couldn't eat it right away.

As we enjoyed our meal, the hula lesson got everyone excited, and then we were informed about dessert. The dessert line was free-flowing, so when I finally chose my dessert and sat down, it was already time to move to the theater, and I couldn't even finish half of it. What a shame.

The show I had been looking forward to was lively, with many enthusiastic participants, which made the whole venue come alive. The performers even came down from the stage to interact with us. The visuals were enjoyable as well.

It's definitely worth experiencing at least once!

多くの方の口コミを参考に、一度はハワイアンショーを観たくて「ロック・ア・フラ」を選びました。

受付から食事までの間にウエルカムドリンクのマイタイで乾杯。ウクレレ演奏のローカルマダムがテーブルに来て片言の日本語でお話してくれました。食事のビュッフェは席の列で案内なので、最後の人は少し待ち時間があります。
テーブルにディスプレイの様に置かれているパイナップルは、器として中に食べる用にカットされてました。テーブルの人達とシェアだったの気づいてもなかなか食べれなかった。
食事も進み、フラレッスンをしてくれ会場全体が盛り上がった後に、デザートの案内があります。
デザートの列は自由なので私はやっと選んで席に着いたら、シアター移動時間になっていて半分も食べれなかった。残念です。
楽しみしていたショーはノリノリの方のが多かったので、会場全体が盛り上がるし、ステージから下りてきて演者の方と触れ合えます。映像も楽しめました。
一回は体験すると良いですよ。

The food was very good. And variety was excellent. The show was GREAT! I would definitely recommend it. Had a great time. Elvis and Michael were great.

I was expecting something like a glass-bottom boat, but it turned out to be more like a submarine than I thought. The underwater experience is exciting and piques your intellectual curiosity. There weren't any turtles underwater, but there were plenty on the surface. Dive in, why don't you?

That said, it was an interesting experience. I won't spoil anything, so it's something to enjoy after you experience it yourself!

グラスボートに毛が生えたようなものを想定していたら、思った以上に潜水艦でした。
水中体験はワクワクしますし、知的好奇心をくすぐります。
亀は水中にはいませんでしたが、水上にたくさんいました。潜りやがれよ。

とはいえ、面白い体験でした。
ネタバレはしないので、体験してからのお楽しみですかね？

The seat was in Category 1, and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Since it was a seat in the front row, I could see the performers' expressions, which added a lot of impact. There were also interactive elements that engaged the audience, making it very exciting!

座席はカテゴリー1席でしたが十分楽しめました。
前の方の席でしたので、演者の表情なども見ることができ、とても迫力がありました。
観客を巻き込んでの演出もあり、とても盛り上がりました！

Before boarding, we were informed that the sea conditions were poor, and it would likely not be possible to see fish or the reef through the glass bottom. The boat would also be very rocky. They assured us that those who wished to cancel would receive a refund, which was a sincere response. Additionally, although it was originally supposed to be in English only, we were fortunate that the staff included Japanese speakers, so there were no inconveniences, and we had a comfortable time.

By the way, on the day of the trip, not a single person chose to cancel; everyone, including babies and the elderly, opted to board.

乗船前の説明で、本日は海のコンディションが悪く グラスボトムで魚を見たり魚礁を見ることがおそらくできません。船もすごく揺れます。ですので キャンセルされる方は返金致します、と誠実な対応がありました。それと、もとは英語のみのはずでしたが、運がいい事に日本人含むスタッフだったので 不便なことは全くなく快適な時間を過ごせました。
ちなみに当日はキャンセルする方は一人もおらず、赤ちゃんや高齢者含め 全員乗船を選択しました。

I was worried because the venue is smaller compared to Las Vegas and Tokyo DisneySea, but I was amazed by the incredible impact. The size didn't matter; the production was also wonderful. I had so much fun that I want to see it again.

会場がラスベガスや東京ディズニーシーに比べ規模が小さいから心配してましたが
迫力が凄くて驚きました。
広さは関係無く
演出も素晴らしかった。また見に行きたいと思うほど楽しかった。

It was amazing to feel the ocean of Hawaii from a different perspective while on the sunset sailing! Watching the sunset and enjoying the pleasant breeze while sipping champagne and cocktails made for a wonderful experience.

サンセットセーリングに乗ってビーチから見る景色とは違うハワイの海を感じることができて凄く良かった！サンセットを見ながら気持ち良い風にあたりシャンパンやカクテルを飲みながら素敵な時間を過ごせて良い体験だった

I had always wanted to try this, so I experienced it, and it was even more fun than I imagined! At first, I was scared, but I gradually got used to it, and before I knew it, it was over.

On the same boat, there were two pairs of Japanese honeymooners, one pair of Korean honeymooners, and one Japanese parent-child duo, including us. We took videos with each other and shared them via AirDrop.

I brought my smartphone in a waterproof case, but when we were flying, I left it with my belongings. I think it's a good idea to take motion sickness medicine beforehand. I usually don't get seasick, but I took it just in case.

I found that the trick to not getting seasick is to face the direction of travel and not look down. You can store your belongings under the seat, so they won't get wet, but I recommend going with minimal luggage. If you frequently look down while taking things in and out, you will definitely get seasick…

The captain teaches you how to wear the life jacket in simple Japanese, so I don't think it will be a problem even if you don't understand English. They will also take plenty of photos if you request them. However, you will need to tip for that, haha. We gave them $20.

When we landed in the water, we got soaked up to our knees. Some people were soaked up to their waists, so be prepared to get wet.

Overall, it was so much fun, and I highly recommend it!

一度やってみたかったので、体験しましたが想像以上に楽しかった！
最初は怖かったですが、段々と慣れてきてあっという間に終わってしまいました。
同じボートに私たちを含む日本人ハネムーナーが2組、韓国人ハネムーナーが1組、日本人の親子が1組いました。同じボートに乗っていた人同士で動画を撮って、エアドロで送りあったりしました。
自分のスマホは防水ケースに入れて行きましたが、飛んでいる時は荷物と一緒に置いておきました。
酔い止めは飲んでおいた方がいいと思います。普段船酔いはしないですが、念の為飲んでおきました。
船酔いしないコツは進行方向をむく、下を向いたりしないことだなと思いました。
荷物は座るところの下に入れられるので、ぬれたりはしましませんが、最小限の荷物で行くのがオススメです。
荷物の出し入れで下を頻繁に向いたら確実に船酔いすると思います…
船長さんはライフジャケットの着方など簡単な日本語で教えてくれるので、英語が分からなくても問題ないと思います。
写真も希望すればたくさん撮ってくれます。
その分チップは必要ですが笑
私たちは20ドル渡しました。
着水の時は膝ぐらいまで浸かりました。
人によっては腰ぐらいまで浸かっていたので、ぬれる覚悟はしたほうがいいと思います。
とにかく楽しかったので、オススメです！

It was a high-quality performance that did not disappoint the usual expectations of Cirque du Soleil! It incorporated Hawaii's unique culture, music, and dance, creating a distinctive world. Compared to other Cirque shows in Las Vegas, I felt that the individual performances shone more than the group acts.

いつものシルクドソレイユの期待を裏切らないハイクオリティなパフォーマンスでした！ハワイ独自のカルチャー、音楽、舞踊が盛り込まれていて、独自の世界観が実現できていました。ラスベガスの他のシルクに比べると、グループよりも個人のパフォーマンスが光っていたと思います。

I was very satisfied with both the food and the show. I took my mother, who is learning hula dancing, with me. Since it was a show specifically focused on hula, there were elegant movements as well as intense ones, and there was even male hula, which really impressed her.

The hotel buffet was also very luxurious and delicious; I enjoyed a lot of crab and fresh oysters. The meat dishes, including the prime rib steak carving, were also plentiful. Drinks are not included, but the prices are comparable to nearby bars.

料理もショーも大満足です。フラダンスを習っている母を連れていきました。フラに特化したショーなので優雅な動きから激しい動きまで、また男性のフラもありたいそう感激していました。
ホテルのビュッフェも大変豪華で美味しく、カニと生ガキをたくさんいただきましたが。プライムリブステーキのカッティングなど肉料理も充実です。ドリンクは有料ですが、近隣のバーと比較しても同じくらいの価格帯です。
