Hawaii
This tour is安心できる with no rocking of the boat. The best seats are on the right side facing the direction of travel. Although it is stated that the meal is a light snack, it turned out to be a buffet, so you can eat as much as you want. One drink is included, and if it's a soft drink, you can enjoy unlimited refills.
船は揺れもなく安心できるツアーです。
座る席は進行方向に向いて右側が最高です。食事も軽食とは書いてありますが
バイキングになっているので食べ放題でした。
1ドリンクは付いていますがソフトドリンクであれば飲み放題です。
The catamaran sunset cruise was amazing! Unlimited Mai Tais! The sunset was also fantastic! I want to go again!
カタマランのサンセットクルーズ最高でした!マイタイ飲み放題!サンセットも最高でした!また行きたいです!
Last time, it was a wonderful sailing experience, so this time I brought my elderly mother and aunt along. It seems like they both really enjoyed it, which is great!!! I plan to repeat it again...
前回、とても素敵なセーリングだったので 今回、年配の母と叔母を連れて
行きました。2人とも大変楽しんでくれたみたいで良かったです!!!
又 リピート予定です。。。
Best cruise!! So much fun, great lads creating such a great atmosphere, definitely one of our highlights of Waikiki! We were lucky enough to see whales also! I highly recommend this sunset cruise to anyone who wants to party and meet like minded fun seeking folks!!
It was amazing.
I even saw whales.
With a little help from alcohol, I made friends with foreigners.
The sunset was the best.
The scenery and sense of openness were completely better than the cruise.
I will definitely use it again.
最高でした。
クジラもみえました。
お酒の力も借りて外国の方とも仲良くなりました。
サンセット最高でした。
クルーズよりも景色と開放感は完全に上でした。
また必ず利用します。
Nice ride, kind staff. No whales. There was a promise to have a free new cruise if whales were not spotted, but I did not see the lady, who had to organise that. So, bit disappointing all in all
Not only was it pleasant to be on the boat, but the warm guidance and welcome from the staff made me feel at ease, making it the most enjoyable experience of my trip.
船に乗ることが気持ちいいだけでなく、スタッフの皆さんの暖かい案内とお迎えが安心できて、旅の中で一番楽しい体験となりました。
Unfortunately, we couldn't see any whales, but since it's nature, that's understandable. I think it would be amazing if we could see them. Even without seeing whales, you can still enjoy the cruising experience. I definitely recommend bringing binoculars!
残念ながらクジラは見れませんでしたが、自然相手なのでそこは仕方ありません。見れたら最高だと思いますよ。クジラが見れなくてもクルージング気分は味わえます。是非、双眼鏡を持参する事をお奨めします!
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise. We are sorry that you were unable to enjoy whale watching this time. Please do come back and try again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

The weather wasn't very good, and we couldn't see the sunset. The boat was rocking, and many people got seasick.
天気があまり良くなく、サンセットは見れませんでした。船が揺れてしまって、船酔いする人が多かったです。
I was disappointed. The waves were high, and many people on the boat got seasick. We didn't see any whales either. I don't recommend this for those who are prone to seasickness.
ガッカリでした。波が高くて船に乗って居られた沢山の方か船酔いをされてました。
鯨も見れませんでした。船酔いの弱い方にはオススメしません。

We had a great time on the sunset cruise, we got some awesome photos, met really cool people and did something we wouldn't normally do!
Only tips I would give is to go to the toilet first (the one on board is cramped and it can get bumpy, so more room for unlimited drinks) and make sure you check the meeting location carefully first because there's 2 Outrigger hotels and that confused us alot.
I was struggling to find a birthday gift for my husband which coincidentally falls on Valentine’s Day. As we were traveling to Oahu the next week form Australia I purchased 2 tickets for the Sunset Cocktail Cruise online, printed them and put them in his birthday card. WOW! What a great success that was, we had a wonderful time.
Weather was perfect, service and cocktail supply was 4 star and I would recommend this Cruise to all. The captain and his mate were attentive and entertaining, we were lucky enough to see whales in their natural habitat along with the magical sunset we were promised.
This was my 8th trip to Waikiki but I had never been on this Catamaran Cruise previously. We would definitely go again.
It was so easy to purchase online, prepay and print the receipt it made the perfect gift from the other side of the Pacific. Mahalo.
There was absolutely no Japanese guide, and I could only understand a little of what was being said, but that doesn't really matter. Even without words, it's okay. When everyone sang the birthday song for the cute girl, it was the best.
日本語ガイドなんて一切なく、なーにいってるのか、ちょっとしかわからなかったけど、そんなこの、どうでもいい。言葉なくても、大丈夫。かわいい女の子のお誕生日のお歌を全員で歌ったときは、最高でした。
We were very fortunate, we had a lovely sunny day and we saw 3 or 4 whales. The crew were very helpful.The buffet meal was of good variety, tasty food and people were able to return as many times as they wanted. With regard to the whales, as stated in the tour blurbs there are rules about how close the boat can get to the whales because of this and how fast they breach and disappear I would suggest putting the camera aside and fully enjoying the experience with your own eyes, which is quite a thrill.
I was surprised to see a bus accident on the way, but I'm glad it was a minor one. I enjoyed the cruise!
行く途中でバス同士の事故があったりでびっくりしましたが、小さい事故で良かった。
クルーズは楽しめました!
Thank you very much for participating in the tour.
However, I believe you were surprised by the contact between the buses at the meeting point. We sincerely apologize for this.
The pickup location is very crowded, and each driver is driving with the utmost care, but we will make further efforts to be more aware of other companies' buses in the future.
Thank you for your valuable feedback despite your busy schedule.

We participated as a family of three (with a 6-year-old son). There are many reviews mentioning a high percentage of Westerners, but due to the timing, there were also a lot of Asians participating. The Mai Tais they served were very delicious. When our cups were empty, they would ask if we wanted a refill, and the staff's response was great. Each person also received a bag of snacks. We were blessed with good weather, and the sunset was beautiful. If we go to Hawaii again, I would like to participate again.
家族3人(息子6歳)で参加しました。欧米人率が高いという口コミが多いですが、時期もあってアジア人もたくさん参加していました。配られるマイタイがとても美味しかったです。コップが空になっているとお代わりを聞いてくれたり、スタッフの方の対応もいいです。スナックも一人一袋もらえます。天気に恵まれサンセットも綺麗でした。またハワイに行くことがあれば参加したいです。
the food was normal, but lots of activity on board that you can participate. quite a great experience.
The sunset was really beautiful.
However, when getting on and off, your clothes get wet! You have to be prepared to get into the water up to your knees, or it can be quite a hassle... My 5-year-old son fell into the sea when getting off and got completely soaked! He was rescued by a staff member! There are no restrooms, so be careful not to drink too much! They make sure to leave only after sunset, so you can definitely enjoy the sunset.
とっても夕日はきれいでした
ただ、乗り降りするとき、服がぬれる!
膝ぐらいまでは海に入るのを覚悟でいかないと大変…
5歳の息子は降りる時、海にはまり、びしょびしょ!お兄さんに救助されてました!
トイレはないので飲み過ぎ注意!
ちゃんと、日の入後しか帰らないのでバッチリサンセットは見れます
I was disappointed to only see a glimpse of the whale's back. I participated with breakfast included, but there was a limited variety of ingredients.
鯨の背中が少し見えただけで残念でした。
朝食付きで参加しましたが食材のレパートリーが少なかったです。
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise.
We are very sorry that you were unable to fully enjoy the whale watching this time.
There are times when active whales show off impressive jumps, so we hope you will come back to try again.
We will share your comments internally and use them to help improve in the future.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

Unfortunately, we encountered a day of heavy rain. Many people got off the shuttle bus from the hotel without umbrellas and boarded the boat. The air conditioning was strong, and we were shivering in our wet clothes. They temporarily turned off the air conditioning after seeing us, but it was soon turned back on. The sea outside was also rough, making it quite challenging.
As for the whales, there was an announcement about their direction, but unfortunately, we couldn't see any and received replacement tickets. My friend who got seasick probably won't go again! (laughs) However, I think the tour itself isn't bad, as weather and whale sightings are a matter of luck.
あいにくの大雨の日に当たってしまいました。ホテルから送迎バスを降りて、傘を持ってなかった人も多くて船に乗り込みました。
冷房が強くて、濡れた服を着た私達は震えてました。その様子を見て一旦冷房を止めてくれたのですが、すぐに再開。外の海も荒れていたので、なかなか辛かったです。
肝心の鯨は、何時の方向にいるとアナウンスが入るのですが、残念ながら見られずに振替チケットをもらいました。
船酔いした友達はもう行く事はないかな?(笑)
でも、天気も鯨も運なので、ツアー自体は悪くないと思います。

Since I participated during the rainy season, it couldn't be helped, but it was cold and difficult due to the rain. A raincoat or parka is absolutely necessary.
However, the captain and staff were very considerate, and the Mai Tai we had on board was delicious. They also generously served champagne. It was tasty.
On the way back, we were lucky to see the sunset from the western horizon. It was moving. I definitely want to participate again when the weather is nice.
雨季の時期に参加をしたので仕方がないですが雨で寒く大変でした。
カッパやパーカーは絶対に必要です。
ただ、船長は始めスタッフに皆さんの気遣いや船上で飲むマイタイは旨いです。シャンパンも大判振る舞いで出してくれました。
美味しかったですよ。
帰りがけに西の水平線からサンセットがラッキーに見えました。
感動しました。
また天気の良い時に是非参加したいですね。
Considering the winter activities, how was it? I participated knowing that visibility might be limited, but I was really disappointed because I could only see a small glimpse of the whales far away, and it wasn't clear enough to capture a photo. Although the whales were hard to see, I thought it might not be a bad tour if I considered it as a walk on the boat.
冬ならではのアクティビティのわりには、いかがなものでしょうか。
見えない場合もあるのは承知の上、参加しましたが、
本当に遠くに小さく、一瞬見えただけで、とても写真におさめることもできず、肉眼ではっきりみえたわけでもないので、がっかりですね。
ホエールは見えにくかったけれど、船の船上散歩と考えれば、悪くないツアーかな???と思いました。
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise.

Friendly, friendly, friendly. Very knowledgeable and what a view!!!!
Thank you so much for joining us and for your excellent review! Until we meet again... Mahalo and Aloha
Great crew, lots of drinks, awesome photo opportunities of the sunset and Waikiki. We even saw a whale.
You can see a different view of the Waikiki hotels and Diamond Head from the sea. Enjoying a toast while watching the sunset can be an amazing experience, especially if the weather is nice. The staff varies each time, and their service can depend on their personality, so it can be hit or miss. It's a bit disappointing that the background music isn't Hawaiian, but rather upbeat rock that the staff prefers.
海からワイキキのホテル群やダイヤモンドヘッドのいつもとは違った風景が見られる
サンセットを見ながら乾杯が出来、お天気に恵まれると最高の体験になる
スタッフは毎回違い、対応ぶりはその人柄に左右されるので当たり外れがある
BGMがハワイアンでなく、スタッフの好みのノリノリロックだったりするのが残念
This was a very enjoyable evening. The crew did a great job serving everyone and the food was excellent. The captain did a wonderful job steering around the thunderstorm that was in the area. We also had a whale entertain us slapping its tail to the beat of the music.
There were about 40 people on the tour, including two groups of us (four people). The yacht hardly swayed, so I don't think there's any worry about seasickness. Cocktails were poured from a large bottle, and with the excitement, I ended up having three refills. We even spotted whales offshore, and the sunset was amazing. I also made friends with a family of four from Australia. The two hours flew by. I definitely want to participate again next time.
日本人は私たち含め2組(4人)計40人ぐらいのツアーでした。ヨットの揺れはほとんどなく、船酔いの心配はいらないと思います。大きなボトルからカクテルがそそがれ、盛り上がりとともに3杯もお替りしてしまいました。クジラも沖に見えサンセットも最高でした。オーストラリアの4人家族とも仲良くなりました。あっという間の2時間でした。次回もぜひ参加したい。
I participated thinking it would be a Valentine's gift. As others mentioned, there were many foreign participants (mostly from Europe and America), and there were fewer Asians, but I actually enjoyed the overseas atmosphere even more because of that.
All the explanations were in English, but I had no trouble at all. The captain and staff were very friendly, making jokes to entertain the guests and engaging in conversation, creating a very welcoming atmosphere!
On the day of the tour, it was unusually rainy in Hawaii, and with strong winds, we could hardly see the sunset, which is the highlight of the tour. The waves were a bit high, so some guests who were not good on boats felt unwell. (The staff's response at that time was quick and left a good impression.) I’m not very good on boats either, but I managed to be okay. In the end, just as the sun was setting, the clouds parted slightly, allowing us to see a beautiful sunset, which was very moving. It was a memorable moment.
You can take wonderful photos on the boat and enjoy the scenery, so I recommend this for those looking for a gift or a memorable experience like I was!
バレンタインのプレゼントに…と思って参加しました。他の方が言っていた通り、外国の方の参加率が多く(しかも欧米の方が多い)、アジア人は少なめではありますが、逆にその方が私は海外気分をより味わえて良かったです。
説明も全て英語でしたが、困ることはありませんでした。キャプテン、スタッフの方がとても気さくな方なので、お客さんをジョークで笑わせたり、一緒に話をしたりして、とてもフレンドリーな雰囲気でした!
当日はハワイ では珍しく一日中雨で、風も強かったため、ツアーの醍醐味であるサンセットがほとんど見られず、波も少し高かったので、船に弱い方が体調を崩されてました。(その時のスタッフの対応は迅速で好印象でした。)私もあまり船は得意ではないのですが、何とか大丈夫でした。最後、本当に陽が落ちる時、わずかに雲が切れてくれて、とても綺麗な夕日を見ることが出来、とても感動しました。思い出に残るワンシーンでした。
船上でステキな写真も撮れるし、景色も見られるし、私のようにプレゼントや何かの記念になるオプションを探している方にオススメです!
The boat and crew were perfect. Not overcrowded. The food was top notch. The drinks were top shelf and the crew was at the top of their game. Sunsets are a crap shoot in Hawaii. This night it was perfect. Just the right mix of clouds and sea. A mother Humpback whale and her new calf graced us with their presence. This was a perfect storm or wonderful. Thank you Ali'i Nui and mother nature for a once in a lifetime experience.
Honestly, I wasn't expecting much, but I enjoyed it more than I anticipated. The customer service was also polite, and the staff were cheerful. Plus, I was able to see the whales up close. It was the best trip ever.
正直、あんまり期待してなかったが、予想以上に楽しめた。接客対応も丁寧で、スタッフさんが明るい。そして、クジラもとっても近くで見ることができた。
最高の旅でした。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you were able to observe whales up close. Please do come again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
