All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

The tour is not good at all and I did not see fish and other sea animals

A friend who experienced it with me was not good with heights, but they said they were completely fine and glad they participated. I wanted to stay longer because the views were beyond my expectations. The staff doesn't speak Japanese, but it wasn't a problem.

一緒に体験した友人が高いところが苦手でしたが全く大丈夫で参加して良かったと言ってました。私は予想以上の景色でもっといたいと思うほど。スタッフは日本語は通じませんが問題なしです。

The poolside terrace has a relaxed open space feel, with a pleasant breeze, making it a great place to enjoy a meal. After the salad, the main dish is served, and you can choose from three options. One friend and I chose the loco moco, while another friend opted for the seafood tacos, and both were quite filling! The loco moco had two hamburger patties stacked, and the tacos were packed with plenty of vegetables and fish fillets, making them very satisfying. The dessert ice cream was also delicious. For drinks, you can choose between iced or hot coffee and tea, as well as draft beer, which is great for those who enjoy alcohol. We had a delicious and enjoyable meal.

オープンスペースでラフな感じのプールサイドのテラスなので、風も心地よく、寛いで食事が出来ます。サラダの後にメインデッシュが出ますが、3つの中から選べるので、私と友人一人はロコモコを、もう一人の友人はシーフードタコスを選びましたが、どちらもボリュームたっぷり！ロコモコはハンバーグが2枚重なっており、タコスは野菜たっぷりに魚の切り身が挟んであり、いずれも食べ応えがありました。デザートのアイスクリームも美味しかったです。ドリンクもコーヒー、紅茶はアイスかホット、またドラフトビールも選べるので、アルコール好きには嬉しい限りです。
美味しく楽しく頂きました。

The venue is located on the 4th floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center, conveniently situated in the heart of Honolulu. Upon checking in, I was greeted with a lei service. First, there was a meal time, which included a Mai Tai cocktail and one drink of your choice. The meal was served buffet-style in order after being guided to our seats. During the meal, there was hula dancing, but I could only see the dancers from behind. I wanted to have dessert, but before I knew it, a ukulele performance started nearby (though it wasn't very good), and there was a request for a $10 tip. It was unfortunate that the meal time ended so hurriedly.

However, after moving to the second half of the showtime venue, the VIP treatment made me feel fantastic! I had a central seat right in front of the stage. The beautiful dancers performed hula, and the host and singer resembled Rumiko Koyanagi. The performances of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson were so convincing that it felt like I was watching the real stars. I had a great time right in front of the stage. After leaving the venue, I even took photos with Michael and Elvis, creating wonderful memories.

The collaboration of rock and hula dancing was the best! This is a show I highly recommend if you come to Hawaii!

会場はロイヤルハワイアンセンターの4階にあり、ホノルル街の中央で便利な場所。受付をすると早速、レイのサービス。最初に食事の時間があり、マイタイカクテル＆好きなドリンク1杯がついていました。食事は案内されてから順番にバイキング形式。食事中はフラダンスをしていたが席からは後ろ姿しか見えなかった。デザートも食べたかったが、いつのまにか脇でウクレレ演奏が始まり(余り上手ではなかったのに）チップ10💲の催促。最後は食時間があわただしく終わってしまったのが残念。
が、食事タイム移動後、後半のショータイム会場のVIP 対応に気分は最高！ステージ目の前中央の席。美しいダンサー達のフラダンスや小柳ルミ子似の司会＆歌手。エルビスプレスリーやマイケルジャクソンもまるで本人達のショーかと思うほど演技と迫力。また目の前でとても楽しませてもらいました。会場を出てからマイケルやエルビスと写真も撮ったりと思い出になりました。
ロックとフラダンスのコラボレーション。最高でした！ハワイに来たらお勧めのショーです♪

The shuttle service had foreign staff, and everyone else on board besides us was also foreign. Therefore, the guide spoke entirely in English, and we were just along for the ride. Water is provided both on the way there and back. Since it was hot, light clothing seemed appropriate... but it depends on the weather.

送迎の方が外国の方で同乗された方はわたしたち以外は全て外国の方でした。
なのでガイドも全て英語でわたしたちはただ乗ってるだけでした。
お水は行きと帰りにもらえます。
暑かったので軽装で良いかと…
天候にもよりますが…

Sunset sailing was my first experience, but thanks to the lively and very friendly crew, I had a wonderful time. The person at the front can get splashed with water due to the waves, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication.

サンセットセーリングは初めての体験でしたが、ノリがよくとても親切なクルーの方のお陰で素晴らしい時間が過ごせました。
先頭の人は水しぶきがかかるくらい揺れたりするので、酔いやすい人は酔い止めの服用をお勧めします。

They have different level and am the total beginner.

Can park at zoo entrance - walking distance if have a car.

The instructor is very patient and it's family friendly.

They took us quite far out, and we were able to see whales. It was a wonderful experience. I've also been on a sunset cruise, but the morning cruise was better.

かなり沖まで行ってくれて、クジラを見ることが出来ました
素晴らしい体験でした
サンセットで乗船したこともありますが、午前のクルーズの方が、良かったです

Due to the high waves that started midway, there was no snack distribution. I had planned to go get a drink when the snacks were handed out, so I couldn't go. When I stopped by the bar counter upon disembarking, there were no staff present, and there were only a few snacks in a basket that people who noticed helped themselves to. The drinks were just a display of cans... If the distribution was canceled due to the high waves, I would have appreciated it if someone had been at the bar counter during disembarkation to hand them out. In the end, I wasn't able to receive the limited-time drink benefit. I noticed that some people didn't tip at all, so I wondered if that might have affected the service. Although I didn't see any whales, I had a great time seeing a lot of dolphins, which made the lack of service feel like a missed opportunity.

途中から波が高くなったせいかスナックの配布がなかった。スナック配布されたらドリンクを取りに行くつもりにしていたので行けず。下船時にバーカウンターに寄りましたが、スタッフ不在、スナックが少しだけカゴに入って置いていたので気づいた人が自ら取っていました。
ドリンクは缶の見本が並べてあっただけ…。高波で配布を見送ったのなら、下船時にバーカウンターにいて頂いて、お渡しして欲しかったです。結局期間限定特典のドリンクは受け取れずじまいでした。
チップを全く入れてない人もいたので、こういうことも影響しているのではないかと思いました。
クジラは見れませんでしたがイルカがたくさん見れて楽しかっただけに、サービスがもったいなく感じました。

I had a seat quite far forward in the Golden Circle, and it was much closer to the stage than I had imagined, which was fantastic. Because I was so close to the stage, I was able to focus on the show, and there were many entertaining performances that made me laugh out loud several times. Additionally, in the relaxed atmosphere unique to Hawaii, I felt a sense of unity in the venue. It truly became a wonderful experience! Thank you very much!

ゴールデンサークルシートの結構前の方の席だったのですが、想像していたより舞台と近くて、すごく良かったです。
舞台との距離が近かった分、集中してショーを観ることができましたし、お客様を楽しませる演出などもたくさん盛り込まれていて、声をあげて笑ってしまったシーンがいくつもありました。
また、ハワイならではのリラックスした雰囲気の中で、会場の一体感を感じました。
本当に素敵な経験になりました！ありがとうございました！

There were about 50 people in the audience for the second stage we attended. Many were couples and families with small children, and there were six of us from Japan in our group. Basically, the show proceeded in English until the explanation before the performance, but during the magic acts, explanations were also provided in Japanese, so even with our middle school-level English vocabulary, we were able to enjoy it thoroughly.

The magician, Shoot (Japanese), said that as a child, he admired Captain Tsubasa and practiced soccer by the river, but before he knew it, he was looking for stones to practice magic.

The show was wonderful and has become one of our cherished memories of Hawaii!

私たちが参加したセカンドステージの観客は50人くらい。カップルや小さなお子さんを連れた家族連れが多く、日本人は私達のグループの6名でした。基本的にショーの前説明までは英語で進みますが、マジック中は日本語で説明も付け加えてもらえるので、中学生レベルの英単語力しか無い私達でも十分に楽しめました。

マジシャンのシュートさん(日本人)は、子供の頃はキャプテン翼に憧れて河原でサッカーの練習していたけど、気づけばマジックの練習に使う石ころを探していたそうです。

ショーも素晴らしく、ハワイの思い出の一つに残りました！

The weather that day was a surprising storm even for the locals, with the narrow streets of Waikiki flowing like rivers and fallen branches scattered about. At the Royal Hawaiian Center, escalators were stopping everywhere, and people were lining up for the elevators. There was even leaking rain inside the elevator, and we were worried about whether the buffet and show would take place, but as the time approached, the rain and wind calmed down, and the event was held. We were greeted with fresh flower leis and guided to a table waiting with pineapples, where we were asked if we wanted alcohol in our first drink, the Mai Tai. Since we would receive another drink later, we took a look at the menu. My husband and I chose the slightly sweet "Chichi" (white) with coconut and the "Polynesian Punch" (red) with multiple fruits like pineapple and orange, both with alcohol. Every dish was delicious, and the whole roasted pig was carved into cubes right in front of us; the skin was tasty, and we had some extra. The roast beef was very delicious with a rare texture. The show progressed with local singer Presley (impersonation), Michael (impersonation), and a Polynesian show, and even though we didn't understand the English, we had a great time. We weren't sure when to move to the show venue since we didn't understand English, so we looked around and moved. Although we moved around separately, the seating areas were determined by the plan, and within those areas, it was open seating, so if you want a better seat, I recommend moving early. After the show, we took photos with Michael and the performers and happily headed home.

この日の天候が、ロコも驚くような大嵐で、ワイキキの細い道は川のように水が流れ、折れた枝が道に落ちているような中、ロイヤル・ハワイアンセンターではエスカレーターがあちこちでストップし、エレベーターに人が並んでました。そのエレベーター内も雨漏りしておりビュッフェ＆ショーが開催されるか心配でしたが、時間が近づくと雨風が弱まり開催されました。生花のレイを首にかけていただき、パイナップルが待つテーブルに案内され、最初のドリンク「マイタイ」のアルコールありか無しかを聞かれます。後でもう１杯ドリンクがもらえるのでメニューをいただき、私たち夫婦は、ココナッツが少し甘い「チチ」（白）とパイナップルやオレンジなど、複数のフルーツが入った「ポリネシアンパンチ」（赤）を、アルコール入りでいただきました。食事はどれも美味しく、子豚の丸焼きは目の前でサイコロ状にさばき、皮が美味しく、追加でいただきました。ローストビーフは生な感じがとても美味しかったです。ショーはロコシンガー・プレスリー（ものまね）・マイケル（ものまね）・ポリネシアンショーとテンポよく進み、私たち夫婦は、英語は理解できませんが楽しかったです。ショーの会場に移るタイミングは、英語のわからない私たちにはわからないので、周りを見て移動しました。バラバラと移動しますが、プランによって会場内のエリアが決まっており、その中では自由席なので、より良い席に座りたい場合は、早めの移動をお勧めします。終了後、マイケルとショーの出演者たちと写真を撮っていただき楽しく帰りました。

I often participated in sunset cruises, but this was my first time joining a cruise while watching fireworks! The departure after dark created a wonderful atmosphere, and the fireworks were beautifully visible, making it a truly lovely experience!

サンセットのクルージングはよく参加していましたが、花火を見ながらのクルージングは初めての参加でした！
暗くなってからの出航でとても雰囲気も良く、花火も綺麗に見れてとても素敵な時間でした！！

The staff is friendly and it's just so much fun!! You can enjoy it without any problems even if you don't understand English! The buffet has desserts in addition to the meals, and I was completely full. It was the best!

スタッフさんがフレンドリーでとにかく楽しい！！英語がわからなくても問題なく楽しめます！バイキングは食事以外にデザートもあって満腹になりました。フラ最高！

I participated in a sunset cruise. It departs from the yacht harbor in Waikiki and returns in about an hour and a half, making it easy to join. On the day I went, I could see the whales' spouts and tails far off in the distance, but the crew did their best to keep things lively and entertaining. Since it's nature, whether you get to see the whales up close is a matter of luck.

サンセットクルーズに参加しました。ワイキキのヨットハーバーから出発して1時間半程度で帰ってこられるので気軽に参加できます。
私が参加した日は遥か遠くにクジラの潮吹きや尻尾が見える程度でしたが、クルーの皆さんは何とか盛り上げようと楽しませてくれました。自然相手のことなので、クジラが近くで見られるかは運次第です。

This tour is amazing.

What’s not to love? Sailing is so cool, isn’t it?

Every time I come to Hawaii, I participate in this sailing trip.

Feeling the sea breeze and the waves is just the best.

You can also see Diamond Head from a different angle.

You should definitely try it!

このツアーは最高です。
何がー。セーリングってかっこいいじゃないですか。

毎回、ハワイに来るとこのセーリングに参加します。

潮風を受け、波を受け最高ですよ。

ダイヤモンドヘッドを違った角度からも見ることができますよ。

あなたも是非。

We came for the show only and were pleasantly pleased with the performance! I especially enjoyed the “Is” section of showcasing his rise and what he means to the Hawaiian people as a whole. Still singing his recorded hit “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” in my head. It was all very good. Elvis and Michael Jackson impersonators, the dancers…Hawaiian culture. Just great!! Don’t miss out!!

A wonderful word: the sea. You can overlook the entire town, and it feels great. I definitely recommend it. Experiencing it firsthand is much more amazing than just seeing it from land.

素敵の一言　海　街を全て見渡し　気持ちの良さ　是非おすすめします。　陸から見るより実際に経験すると素晴らしい経験が出来ます。

The fireworks from the sea were simply wonderful, as if I could have them all to myself. The drinks were free, but there were no snacks, so I might need to bring some, haha. I would love to participate again.

花火を独り占め出来る程　海からの花火は素敵の一言　お酒もフリーです。おつまみは無いので持参かも笑笑　また参加したいです。

The previous day's bad weather may have caused rough waves, and although I was able to see a few turtles, there were not many fish. It's unfortunate, but it's nature, so there's nothing we can do about it.

前日が悪天候だったためか、波が荒くて魚も少し亀が何とか見れたけど、自然相手だから仕方がないけど、残念でした。

Aidan Justin & Alec were great hosts. Thanks for a fun trip!

I have also watched it in Japan (Maihama), but this time the stage was closer, so I was able to enjoy a different level of excitement compared to last time.

日本（舞浜）でも鑑賞したことが有りますが、今回はステージが近いので前回と違う迫力があり楽しむことが出来ました。

The instructor was cheerful and really got everyone excited, which made it a lot of fun. I thought the wind before taking off might be scary, but once I was in the air, it was completely not scary and very enjoyable. I wished I could have flown for a longer time!

インストラクターの方が陽気な方で盛り上げてくれて、とても楽しめました。
飛ぶ前の風が強く感じて怖いかなと思いましたが、飛び上がってしまえば全く怖くなく、楽しかったです。
もっと長時間飛んでいたかったです！

Since it was a tour involving nature, I thought I wouldn't know if I would see anything until it was over, but in the end, I had a wonderful experience. I understood that we couldn't get too close to the whales and would only be able to see them from a distance, but the whales came close to us, and I was able to see them up very close.

I participated in early February, and there were many whales. I was moved by how many there were. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone whose timing aligns.

自然が相手のツアーなので、見れるかどうか終わってみないとわからないなぁ、と思っていましたが、結果、素晴らしい経験ができました。くじらにはあまり近づけないとのことで、遠くからしか見られないのは仕方ないと思っていましたが、クジラが近づいてきてくれて、ものすごく近くで見ることが出来ました。
参加時期は2月上旬でしたが、クジラはたくさんいました。こんなにたくさんいるんだと感動しました。
是非、タイミングが合う方は参加をお勧めします。

We went out to sea in a boat with a few groups and had a little boat riding experience, followed by parasailing in turns. We set up the parachute from the boat and took off from the moving boat. Gradually, the rope is extended, and we float up. The price varies depending on the length of the rope, and I chose the longest one at 150m. However, since we were moving in the boat, I couldn't tell if we actually reached 150m in height, but as you can see in the photos, it was really high. Of course, there’s no sound while flying. The flight lasts a few minutes, but it feels much longer.

As we ascended, my excitement grew, and I felt it was definitely worth it. Since I was holding my smartphone, I had to connect it to my arm with a strap; if I dropped it, I wouldn't be able to retrieve it from the sea. Be careful!

何組か一緒にボートで沖まで行き、ちょっとしたボートの乗船体験もでき、順番にパラセーリングです。船の上からパラシュートをセットして、走るボートの上から飛び立ちます。徐々にロープを伸ばして行きフワッと飛び立ちます。ロープの長さで金額が違いますが、私は1番長い150mを選択。でもボートで走りながらの為高さが150mなのか、斜めに上がる為分かりませんが、、、写真でもわかる様にすごく高いです。勿論飛んでる時は音がしません。数分のフライトですが、すごく長く感じます^_^
上がるとテンションも上がり、やって良かったなと、実感します。スマホを持ちながらなので腕にひもを繋いでないと、落としたら海なので探せません。ご注意を！

We had a great experience and wonderful time. Thank you for helping with all aspects

It was thrilling, and I definitely want to participate again on my next trip to Hawaii. The instructors and the boat operators were fun people, and I was able to enjoy it without feeling scared!

スリル満点、次回のハワイでも必ず参加したいです、インストラクターの方、船の操縦の方も楽しい方達で恐怖を感じる事なく楽しめました〜

The show itself was impressive and satisfying, but I was concerned about the cold indoors. It's better to bring a light long-sleeve shirt, even if you tend to get warm.

ショー自体は迫力満点で満足だったが、室内の寒さが気になった。
熱がりでも薄手の長そでを持って行った方が良い。

Do yourself a favor— book it. I had such a phenomenal experience & really am looking forward to come back! The staff go above & beyond to make sure you’re safe, enjoying your time, and that you feel welcomed. It was one of the highlights of my trip— you won’t regret it :)

Watching fireworks from the sea. I was worried about the weather due to the heavy rain the day before, but I'm glad it went ahead. From my seat, I couldn't take good photos because people's heads and sails were in the way. They changed the direction of the boat towards the end, but I wish they had done it a bit earlier so that everyone could see equally well. I think that's enough... It's better to watch fireworks from the beach.

海上からの花火鑑賞。
前日の大雨で天候が心配だったけど、決行出来て良かったです。
座ってる席からは人の頭や帆が邪魔をして上手く写真を撮れなかった。
船の向きをほぼ終わり頃に変えてくれたけど、もう少し早く、どの席の人も平等に見えるように変えてほしかったです。
これはもういいかな…
花火は浜辺から見た方がいいです。
