All Reviews for Waikiki Things to Do

Despite my fear of heights, I took on the challenge! The view from 150 meters above was breathtaking. The meeting point was a bit hard to find, though (laughs). The hut was smaller than I expected!

高所恐怖症ながらチャレンジ！上空150メートルの眺めは絶景でした。ちょっと集合場所がわかりずらかったなあ(笑)小屋が思ったより小さい！

One of the joys of going to Hawaii is being able to see Presley. I have been a big fan since he was alive. I got to see him again this time. From a distance, this Presley looked quite similar to him. His physique, voice, and singing were nearly perfect. The venue was at the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, which is close to the hotel, and even better, there is a food court on the second floor of this building where we had dinner. He sang six songs, including "Blue Hawaii" and "My Way." His show can't be seen without going to Las Vegas, but this one is not inferior; at the end, you can take a photo together. I highly recommend it.

ハワイに行く一つの楽しみは、プレスリーに会えることです。彼が生きている頃から、大のファンでした。今回も会えました。今回のプレスリーは遠目には顔もよく似ていました。体形、声、歌も満点に近い存在でした。会場は　ロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターにあり、ホテルから近くであり、さらにいいことはこの建屋の2階にはフードコートがあります、ここで夕食を済ませて行きました。ブルーハワイ、そして最後にマイウェーなど6曲も歌ってくれました。彼のショーはラスベガスに行かないと見れませんが、ここはそれに引け劣りません、最後には一緒に写真も撮ってくれます。おすすめです。

Beautiful relaxing evening. Free-flowing drinks. Thoroughly enjoyable sail.

It was so much fun, a great adventure, beautiful views! The crew was great!

A while ago when I participated, I was seated front and back, but this time it was side by side for parasailing, so I was able to enjoy it while chatting! We went quite high up, and I was able to enjoy the wonderful views of Waikiki and Diamond Head!

ずいぶん前に参加したときは、前後で乗ったのですが、今回は横並びのパラセーリングだったので、会話しながら楽しむことができました！
大分高いところまで上がるので、ワイキキの町並みやダイアモンドヘッドの素晴らしい景色を楽しめました！

I arrived a little early, and the staff greeted me, allowing me to take photos with the hula dancers, enjoy the ukulele, and have some drinks. The food was delicious as well. I think it would be nice to have a bit more Hawaiian cuisine. The show was wonderful, and I had a great time. I was seated in the second row, center, so I could see the performers' expressions clearly. I was also able to take a photo with Michael and Elvis at the end. It was a different kind of enjoyment compared to the hula show at the Hilton.

少し早めに到着しましたが、受付の方に声掛けいただき、フラダンサーとの写真撮影・ウクレレ・飲み物などの対応を受けました。
食事も美味しかったです。もう少しハワイらしい料理が多いと良いかなとは思います。
ショーもすばらしく楽しく過ごせました。場所も２列目真ん中で表情まではっきりと見えました。
マイケル･エルビスとも最後に写真を一緒にとれました。
ヒルトンのフラショーとは違う楽しみ方ができ楽しめました。

I used a one-day pass and took two lines. I was worried, but I was able to enjoy sightseeing without any issues. I'm glad I could go to the places I wanted to visit. I would like to use it again.

一日券で、2路線を利用しました。
心配だったが無事観光でき堪能してしました。
行きたい所へ行けて良かったです。
また利用したい。

I chose this because it has good access from hotels around Waikiki and the travel time by boat is short. Since it's a boat ride, I think some people might get seasick, but it's only about a 10-minute boat ride from Waikiki Beach, so it might be bearable?? There is some rocking, so if you're worried, it's definitely a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand.

You can opt to have photos taken, and payment is made afterward. You need to communicate in English with the captains to request photos (if you don't ask, they won't take any). I thought they would just take a few casual shots, but they actually took quite a number of photos and even considered the composition carefully. They managed to capture beautiful shots with passing boats and planes, and I was very satisfied.

The woman at the reception was kind and greeted us with a smile, and she helped me when I was looking for the restroom (there was a restroom about a 2-minute walk away).

I gave a $20 tip to the captains when we disembarked. Thank you to all the staff for an amazing experience!

ワイキキ周辺のホテルからアクセスがよく、船での移動時間も短いという理由から申し込みしました。
船での移動ということもあり、船酔いする方もいらっしゃると思いますがワイキキビーチから10分ほど船を走らせるくらいなのでギリギリ耐えられるかも？？揺れはあるので心配な方は酔い止めを飲んでおくのが間違いないです。
オプションで写真をとってもらうことができますが支払いは後払いです。船の上で、キャプテンたちに写真をとってほしいと英語で伝える必要がありました(伝えないと写真は撮ってもらえません)。適当に何枚か撮ってくれるだけかなと思っていましたが、結構な枚数を撮影してくれており、構図までしっかり考えてくれていました。たまたま通りかかった船や飛行機と綺麗に撮ってくれていて大満足でした。
受付の女性も、優しく笑顔で対応してくれて、トイレを探して困っていたところを助けてくれました(徒歩2分くらいのとこにトイレありました)。
チップは20ドルをキャプテンたちに渡して下船しました。
スタッフのみなさま最高な体験をありがとうございました。

We gathered 30 minutes before the parasailing started. It was a bit far from our hotel, but we were able to get there without any issues using thebas. We boarded the boat with other participants and headed out to sea. The boat rocked quite a bit, so I think it's essential to take motion sickness medication if you're prone to seasickness. The view during parasailing was breathtaking!!! It was the best!!! You can get the data from your parasailing experience later for $40. Payment of $40 can also be made by credit card.

パラセーリング開始30半前に集合します。当方の宿泊ホテルから少し離れていましたが、thebasを使い問題なく向かうことができました。他の参加者と共に船に乗り込み、沖に向かいます。結構揺れるので、船酔いする方は酔い止め必須だと思います。パラセーリング中の景色は絶景です！！！最高でした！！！パラセーリング中のデータを後で40ドルでもらうことが出来ます。40ドルはクレカでも支払い可能でした。

Once gathered, we will split into groups and head to the sea by boat. Two people will take turns paragliding. You can enjoy the wonderful scenery for about five minutes! The equipment is not particularly difficult to use, so I think it will be fine.

集合したら各グループに別れボートで海へ向かいます。
2人ずつ順番にパラセイリングを行います。
5分ほど飛び、素晴らしい絶景をたのしむことができます！
装備品も特に難しいものはないので大丈夫だと思います。

Crew was great, water was great, drinks were great. Pick up location is perfect right on the beach

A couple in their 70s has experienced Hawaii several times in the past and is well aware of its charm. However, they have recently become more aware of their declining physical strength and decided to enjoy one last trip to Hawaii while they are still able to move around.

In previous trips, they prioritized visiting various tourist spots, and the only show they had seen was over a decade ago at the Polynesian Cultural Center. This time, they considered revisiting the center for its grand show, but due to the distance, they learned that there was a show very close to their hotel in Waikiki and decided to sign up for it on a whim.

To their surprise, the show turned out to be quite professional, featuring not only beautiful hula and intense Polynesian dances but also performances by impersonators of the late popular stars, Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. They realized that if this were the real deal, it would be incredibly difficult to obtain tickets even for a hefty sum, and they both agreed on that.

After the show, there was a meet-and-greet with the artists and a photo opportunity, which added to their experience. On the way back to the hotel, they felt that just being able to see such a show made the trip to Hawaii worthwhile, and they were very satisfied, especially when his wife showed off a photo of herself with the beloved "Presley."

70歳代の夫婦、ハワイ旅行は過去にも何度か体験してハワイの魅力を十分認識しておりますが、最近とみに体力の衰えを自覚するようになり、身体が動くうちにもう1度、と今回が最後のつもりでハワイ旅行を楽しんで来ました。
数年前までは、ハワイの色んな観光スポットを巡ることを優先していた関係で、ショーを鑑賞したのは10数年前の「ポリネシアカルチャーセンター」でのショーが1度きり。
今回の旅行でも、久し振りにそこを訪れて豪華ショーを鑑賞しようかとも思ったのですが、距離的にちょっときつかったので、ワイキキの宿泊ホテルからすぐ近くでもショーがあるのを知り、ちょっと覗いてみようかと軽い気持ちで申し込みました。
ところが、これがなかなか本格的なショーで、華麗なフラや激しいポリネシアンダンスだけでなく、今は亡き人気スター、エルビス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンのそっくりさんの歌やパフォーマンスまであって、しかもそれを中央前方のVIP席で鑑賞できるなんて、これが本物だったらン十万払ってもチケット入手は困難だろうなと家内とも納得し合ったりもして。
またショーが終わっての帰りには、出場アーティストたちとの握手会や記念撮影サービスなどもあって至れり尽くせり。
こんなショーを観れただけでも、ハワイに来た甲斐があったよね、とホテルへの帰り道、あこがれの"プレスリー"との２ショット写真を私に見せながら大満足の家内でした。

My three grandchildren and daughter participated. I was worried that the grandchildren might say they were scared and wouldn't go, but they came down saying they had an amazing time. The receptionist was also very polite and explained everything well, making it a wonderful memory.

孫3人と娘が参加しました
孫達が怖いと飛ばないと言い出すのでないかと
思ってたらめちゃくちゃ楽しかったと
降りて来ました
受付のお姉さんも丁寧に説明してくださって
楽しい思いでになりました

I was impressed by the packed program. I enjoyed a delicious buffet and had a great time at the show. The appearances of Elvis and Michael allowed me to take a trip down memory lane to my younger days.

盛りだくさんのプログラムに感動。美味しいビュッフェもたっぷり頂き、ショーも大いに楽しめました。エルビスやマイケルの登場で、若い頃にタイムスリップできました。

First, we had a meal and then enjoyed a hula dance. The food was delicious. My 7-year-old son was having a great time experiencing the hula dance. After that, there was a show. At first, it was entertaining, but while I know Michael from the impersonation contest, I didn't recognize the other person, so I couldn't find it funny, just noting that he had a lot of chest hair. It felt like an unknown guy was singing while showing off his chest hair. My son was fast asleep.

We ended up here because the boat got lost, but my son said he preferred the boat. For people in their 20s and 30s, the characters might feel too outdated. It just becomes a situation where you keep listening to old music you don't know.

It felt like tracing the history of Hawaiian music. Both my son and husband said the fire show was amazing.

最初お食事してフラダンスをします。
料理は美味しいです。
7歳の息子が楽しそうにフラダンス体験をしていました。
あとはショー。最初は面白かったのですが、
モノマネ大会マイケルは知ってますが、もう1人は知らないので、胸毛が凄いくらいで面白いと思えませんでした。
知らないおじさんが汗を書いて胸毛を出した歌ってるってなります。
息子は爆睡していました。

船が迷ってこちらにしましたが、
息子は船が良かったと言っていました。
20代30代の人は人物が古すぎて微妙かと。
まず誰やねんって知らない昔の音楽をただただ聞き続ける事になります。

ハワイの歴史音楽を辿っていくみたいな感じです。
ファイヤーショーは息子も夫もすごいといっていました。

I made a reservation to experience sailing in Hawaii for the first time. The meeting point was easy to find on the first floor of the Outrigger Reef, and we boarded from the beach about a 10-minute walk away. I don't understand English at all, but the translation app worked just fine! The crew members were very considerate, asking if I wanted a drink and if I wanted to take photos. I even saw a rainbow next to Diamond Head! It truly became a wonderful memory!

初めてのハワイで、セーリング体験したいなと思い予約して行きました
集合もわかりやすくアウトリガーリーフの1階で、歩いて10分くらいの浜辺から乗船。まったく英語がわかりませんが、翻訳アプリで大丈夫でした！クルーのお兄さんも、飲み物はいかが？や、写真撮ろうか？と気を使ってくれました！
ダイヤモンドヘッド横に虹もみえました！
ほんとに素敵な思い出になりました！

There were five groups including us.
There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but they explained things using gestures and simple words, so it wasn't a problem.

The hardest part was seasickness...
I definitely recommend taking motion sickness medication for those who are worried!!
Once we took off, the scenery was amazing and it felt like a reset.
It was so much fun! I was very satisfied!!
I gave a tip of $40.

私たち含め5組でした️
日本語を話せるスタッフさんはいなかったのですが、ジェスチャーや簡単な単語で説明してくれたので問題なかったです

1番きつかったのは船酔いです、、
心配な方は絶対に酔い止め飲むことおすすめします！！
飛んだらめちゃめちゃ景色もよくリセットされました️
とってもたのしかったです！大満足！！
チップは40ドルお渡ししました

It was a fish similar to a flatfish, so I wished we could have changed spots more often with the fish finder. I really think Japanese fishing boats are the best. It's perfect for sightseeing.

カワハギ的な魚だから魚探で見れてもっとポイント変えてほしかったです。やっぱ日本の釣り船が最強と思いました。観光には最高です。

I had always wanted to try parasailing, and I thought it would be amazing to experience it in Hawaii, so I decided to go for it and signed up. The breathtaking views from Waikiki to Diamond Head, along with the refreshing feeling and thrill, were incredible. I was a bit worried that the guide only spoke English, but they lightened the mood on the boat with jokes in Japanese, which made me feel at ease and I had a lot of fun. I'm really glad I participated. I splashed into the sea multiple times up to my chest!

Captain & Crew, thank you!!

一度体験してみたかったパラセーリング、ハワイで体験出来れば最高だと、思い切って申し込みました。
ワイキキの町並みからダイヤモンドヘッドまでの絶景と爽快感、スリルが楽しめます。
英語ガイドのみという点が少し不安でしたが、日本語を交えてのジョークで船の上を盛り上げてくれ安心でとても楽しく、参加して本当に良かったです。
胸元まで何回も海ポチャします！

Captain&Crew
thank you！！

I think it's a great plan to easily enjoy B-class gourmet food in Hawaii. The guide's stories were interesting, and time flew by. Since we had some extra time, we also stopped by the Hawaii Izumo Taisha and Dole Plantation, which was very satisfying!

ハワイのB級グルメを簡単に堪能できるいい企画だと思います
ガイドさんの話も面白くあっという間に時間が過ぎます。時間に余裕があったとのことでプラン外のハワイ出雲大社やドールプランテーションにも立ち寄って頂き大満足！

I was thinking of participating in the Sunset Drive on September 30, but the departure time was already past sunset... After receiving an explanation, I decided not to participate and quickly headed to Waikiki Beach, where I was just in time to see the moment of sunset.

The roads were under construction, so it probably would have taken a while, and it was the right decision to cancel my participation.

Since the departure time is determined by HIS, there's nothing that can be done, but I wish they would consider this a bit more.

9月30日の参加でサンセットドライブに参加しようと思いましたが、
出発時間が既にサンセットを過ぎていて…
説明を受けて参加を取りやめ、
急遽ワイキキビーチに向かい、ギリギリセーフで
サンセットの瞬間を見ることができました。

道路も工事中できっと時間もかかっただろうし、
参加をやめたのは正解でした。

出発時間を決めるのはHISなので
仕方ないですが、ちょっと考えて欲しいですね。

I enjoyed the hula dance, Elvis Presley, and Michael Jackson very much. It was great, and I would like to use it again when I visit Hawaii next time.

フラダンス、エルビスプレスリー、マイケルジャクソン楽しく拝見しました、とても良かったです、次にハワイを訪れた際はまた利用したいと思います。

We did 2 turtle snorkel's while in Hawaii, this one was not really the crews fault that it was not my favorite as the seas were pretty rough that day.
This would be a much better experience if there wasn't as many people on board.
Surprisingly, there were a lot of tourists with little to no experience with swimming or the ocean. Please if you are not experienced with swimming stay on the boat.
We were able to see a couple of tours and because of the non-experienced children on board, the fish were well "fed".
Bumpy ride and fun wave time on the trampoline! My sister and I loved that part of it!
Overall, pretty good experience, never enough time in the water!
Be prepared, especially on a smaller boat.

We had the best time on the Na Hoku!
The team was friendly and fun and the drinks were off the nautical charts!
The only thing that would have made it better if it was adults only!
It was awkward to have small children on a Happy Hour Sail, otherwise
it was great!
We had smooth sailing on a very comfortably outfitted catamaran.
The beauty of Oahu was enhanced by the beautiful boat and crew!
Thank you Na Hoku!

This is my second time! It has to be 150m. I could say I came to Hawaii just for this (laughs). Unfortunately this time, I missed the bus and tried to get there with Biki, but got caught up in the Hilton strike line, which made me quite late. Even so, I was able to join, and it was a huge help. By the way, I called on the way to let you know I was late, but I couldn't get through to voicemail... that was a disappointing point.

Everyone was already on the boat, so I jumped right in and we set off! Same crew as last time! I love them ♡ I knew the drill, so even though it was a bit hectic, I just enjoyed it!

This time, the wind picked up quite a bit while we were out, which added an unexpected thrill (laughs). Based on last time's lesson, I had my Insta360 GO 3s ready at my chest and captured everything perfectly! Of course, the crew also takes photos from the boat (for a fee, and you need to confirm in advance). Diamond Head, Waikiki, Ala Moana... the blue sea and sky are just as beautiful as ever! The view is amazing!! According to the crew, there was a lady who was on her fifth time. I plan to beat that record (laughs).

However, there were some who got seasick, so if you're sensitive, it might be a good idea to take some medicine. It doesn't rock that much, though. It's a short time, and it's so much fun that you don't really have time to feel the rocking, if that's the right way to put it? (laughs)

I definitely recommend it!

Dear Crew,
I told you that I remember the Captain, but that was not correct. Last time, the Captain was a younger and shorter guy. Of course, it was true that I remember you and I joined the tour to see you! Thank you again and see you soon!

2度目です！150m一択でしょ。
これをするためにハワイに来たと言っても過言では無いです（笑）
今回大変申し訳無いことに、バスに間に合わず、Bikiで迷いながら行こうとして、ヒルトンのストライキ行列に巻き込まれて、かなり遅刻
それでも乗せてもらえて、めちゃくちゃ助かりました。因みに行く途中で遅刻を知らせるために電話しましたが、留守電で繋がりませんでした…それは残念ポイント。

既に皆さんボートに乗り込んでいたので、すぐに飛び乗り出発！
前回と同じCrew！大好き♡
要領はわかっていたので、バタバタしても、楽しむのみ！

今回は、上がっている時にかなり風が強くなって、ある意味想定以上のスリルが楽しめました（笑）
前回の教訓を元に、insta360 GO 3sを胸元に仕込んで、バッチリ撮影しました！勿論、ボートからCrewも撮影してくれます（有料。事前に要否確認あり）
ダイアモンドヘッド、ワイキキ、アラモアナ…言わずもがな青い海と空！眺めも最高です！！
Crewによると５回目という猛者のマダムもいたそう。私もその記録を越えようと思います（笑）

ただ、船酔いされた方もいたので、弱い方はお薬を飲んでおいた方がいいのかも。そんなに揺れませんけどね。短時間ですし、楽しすぎて揺れを感じる暇が無い、が正しいかな？（笑）

間違いなくオススメです！

Dear Crew,
I told you that I remember the Captain, but it was not correct. Last time, Captain was a younger and shorter guy. Of course it was true that I remember you and I joined the tour to see you! Thank you again and see you soon!

It's quite interesting, but once is enough for me.

They gave us a lei at the entry. I was very happy because it's something you don't see often. The ukulele-playing aunt went around to entertain us, and the hula girls performed a couple of times to liven things up. The food was sufficient in variety and quantity, but the taste was... just okay? The main performance is more enjoyable as you get older. If you get tired from walking, being able to sit and enjoy is a big plus, especially for the ladies!

中々、興味深いけど、一回で十分かな。

エントリーでレイをくれました。
意外とありそうで無かったので、とても嬉しい☺️
ウクレレの叔母様が席を回って楽しませてくれたり、フラガールズ（２名）が2回ほどパフォーマンスで盛り上げてくれます。
食事は種類、量ともに十分ですが、味は…そこそこ？
本編パフォーマンスは、年齢が上がるほど楽しめます。
歩き疲れたら、座って楽しめるのはポイント高いかもしれません。マダムには特に！

The meeting place was within a hotel in Waikiki, which was very accessible. I joined thinking it would be nice to meet them, but I was incredibly moved to see multiple honu (sea turtles) right in front of me! After snorkeling, during the cruising, I was a bit worried because my family got seasick, but it felt really nice to sail while enjoying the view of the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head with the wind in our faces. Also, the captain, crew, and instructor were really cool.

集合場所がワイキキのホテルの中でアクセスがよかったです。
本当に会えたらいいなーぐらいに思って参加したのですが、何匹も、しかも目の前でホヌさん（ウミガメ）に会えて、大感動でした！
シュノーケリング後のクルージングでは、ちょっと家族が船酔いしちゃって心配でしたが、ワイキキのホテル群やダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながら、風を切って航行するのは本当に気持ちよかったです。
あと、キャプテンとクルー、インストラクターがめっちゃかっこよかったです。

It departs from in front of Waikiki Beach, so the atmosphere is very nice. Unlike large vessels, you can feel the refreshing breeze and the sense of openness is fantastic. The music is great, and the vibe was the best.
When getting on and off the yacht, there are times when you might get wet up to your pants. Be careful.

ワイキキビーチの前から出発するので、とても雰囲気が良いです、大きい船舶と違い、風を受けながら開放感満点です、音楽もいいし、雰囲気最高でした
ヨットに乗り降りする時、ズボンのあたりまで濡れる時があります。注意しましょう。

I made a last-minute reservation around 3:30 PM for the final flight at 5 PM. Despite the short notice, the staff were very kind and accommodating. There were four groups participating, and each group had about a 10-minute flight. Since it was in the evening, the view of the sunset and Waikiki was absolutely amazing!

当日の15時半ぐらいに急遽でしたが、最終17時に申し込みました。
急にも関わらずスタッフのみなさんは親切に対応してくれました。
4組での参加でしたが、1組だいたい10分ぐらいの飛行です。
夕方ということもあり、夕日とワイキキが一望でき最高でした!

It felt like Presley and Michael Jackson took it easy. For those in their 30s and 40s, it might not be that great. The show lasted about 1 hour and 20 minutes, and it went by in a flash. I think even the seats in the back are sufficient.

プレスリー＆マイケルジャクソンは楽したという感じです
３０代４０代の方には、いまいちかな～
場所はショーは約１時間２０分、あっという間でした
後ろの席でも充分だと思います
