【冬季限定!1/3~3/21】ホエールウォッチ スターオブホノルル号 1500名乗船可能なハワイ最大のクルーズ船!軽食&ドリンク付き<ワイキキ送迎可>

I'm satisfied because I was able to see whales. なにしろクジラが見られたから満足

Reviewed by: 初のカウアイ

I've been to Hawaii nearly 20 times, but it was my first time coming in January, so it was my first whale watching experience! Although it said "pickup available," adding the pickup increased the price, so I took The Bus. Ideally, I should have gotten off at the corner of Nimitz Highway on routes 19 or 20, but since those buses were taking a while to arrive, I ended up taking an E bus and got off at the corner of Alakahi Road. At that point, I was about 10 minutes late for the 8:00 AM meeting time, and in a panic, I walked another 10 minutes to arrive, only to find that many people were still checking in (the boat's departure time was 8:45 AM).

Once the boat departed, I had breakfast, and as soon as I went out on deck, we spotted a whale! It showed its belly and splashed down dramatically! After that, we saw two more whales that stayed close to us, and on our way back, we spotted another whale on the Waikiki Beach side. The weather was nice, the sea was calm, and most importantly, I was very satisfied to see the whales.

20回近く来たハワイだが、1月に来たのは初めてだったので、初のホエールウォッチング!
「<送迎あり>」と書いてあるけれども送迎をつけると料金が増すので、The Busで行き、本当は19番20番でニミッツハイウェイの角で降りればよいのだが、19番20番がなかなか来ないので、来たEかなんかに乗ってしまい、アラカイロードの角で下車。その時点で集合時刻とされた8時を10分ぐらい過ぎていたが、大焦りでさらに10分ほど歩いて到着してみると、まだたくさんの人が受付をしているところだった。(船の出航時刻は8時45分。)
船が出発し、朝ごはんを食べ、甲板に出るとすぐにクジラ発見!おなかを見せてダイナミックにバッサーン!その後も別な2頭のクジラがつかず離れずいて、折り返して戻る途中にもワイキキビーチ側にまた別なクジラを発見。天気も良く海は凪いで、なによりクジラが見られたので大満足。

Haleakala National Park Sunset Tour with Dinner - Polynesian Adventure

Amazing Sunset!!

Reviewed by: mblock

I enjoyed every moment of the tour, Haleakala is definitely a must-do in Maui!
I'm glad that Polynesian Adventure Tours offers the Sunset tour, I would not be able to do the sunrise tour because of my tight schedule.

The local tour guide Kama was was excellent, very entertaining and knowledgeable about the Island of Maui. He gave us a map and shared interesting facts about Hawaiian history, geology, geography, ecology and legends.

After the pick up we stared our journey to the top of the Haleakala. We made a quick stop at the small, but beautiful Lavender Farm for a bathroom break and to get the coffee and pastries.
We arrived at the visitor center, approximately one hour prior to Sunset, and we had enough time to explore around and take nice pictures of the landscape. I absolutely love sunsets and being able to watch it above the clouds was amazing!
The last stop was at Cafe O Lei, we had a delicious family-style dinner and it was a great way to end the night.

The Sunset tour is great because it is not as crowed as the sunrise. I had a great experience visiting Haleakala with Polynesian Adventure Tours!

Explore the Scenic West Maui Coast on a Private Tour with Iao Valley, Waterfalls & Cultural Gardens

Best Tour in Maui!!!

Reviewed by: mblock

I have done many different tours in Hawaii, and no doubt Jasmine was the best tour guide I have ever had. The tour was perfect from the pick up until the drop-off.

I wasn't sure what to expect since this was my first time on the island but I'm glad I did it. I would never have been able to see this much in one day by myself. She safely drove us through windy and narrow roads and took us to places where large tour buses cannot go.

What a difference Jasmine makes. She is a local Maui girl who deeply loves what she does, she is very knowledgeable and shared interesting facts about Maui's history, culture, geology, ecology, industry etc.

This tour took me to many out of the beaten path places in Maui, giving me memory that will last a lifetime! If you are visiting Maui I highly recommend booking the West Maui Sightseeing Tour!

You can climb a mountain higher than Mount Fuji in one go. 富士山より高い山を一気に登れる

Reviewed by: SATOKOKU

Climbing Mount Fuji on your own feet is... but this tour allows you to ascend quickly in a four-wheel drive vehicle. The scenery is like another world. The stargazing lecture while watching the stars is also an experience you can't easily have.

富士山を自分の足で登るのは、、、でも、このツアーは4輪駆動車で一気に登れます。

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

It was moving!! 感動!!

Reviewed by: こんこん

I participated in the long-awaited sunset tour to celebrate my birthday on my honeymoon. The view was absolutely stunning!

First of all, the guide was incredibly kind. During the pick-up, they eased my nerves with small talk, and even though I was a bit anxious about my first trip to Hawaii, I felt the warmth of Japanese hospitality and was able to enjoy myself with peace of mind.

There were also five other people in our group, along with another couple, and thanks to the cheerful group, the ride was lively! At the summit, we took pictures together and exchanged travel tips, and it was great to be with such wonderful people.

We experienced some mild altitude sickness symptoms like headaches and tingling, but the breathtaking view at the summit overwhelmed us and made us forget all about it! The vast sea of clouds, the red volcanic land, and the bright red sunset were all sights that I believe cannot be experienced in Japan.

During the stargazing, I saw shooting stars three times! The guide's explanations with the laser pointer were easy to understand, and the stars that can’t be seen in Japan, along with the craters of the moon viewed through the telescope, were truly beautiful.

They even took photos for us for free, and I think it's a great deal that this is included in the tour price! Since it was my birthday, having everyone sing Happy Birthday under the starry sky is a memory I will cherish for a lifetime! Thank you so much!

新婚旅行で、自分の誕生日記念に念願のサンセットツアーに参加しました。もう、最高の景色でした!
まずガイドの方がとっても優しかったです。迎えの時も世間話で和ませてくださり、初めてのハワイにドキドキしていましたが日本のホスピタリティーを感じ安心して楽しめました(^-^)
他に5人のグループの方とカップルさんが一緒で、陽気なグループの方々のお陰で賑やかな車中となりました!山頂では一緒に写真を撮ったり旅の情報交換をしたりととてもいい方々と一緒で良かったです。
私達は頭痛やしびれなど軽い高山病のような症状がありましたが、山頂の壮大な景色に圧倒されそんなのを吹き飛ばすほどの絶景に感動しました!!広がる雲海、赤い火山大地、真っ赤な夕焼け。どれも日本では味わうことの出来ない景色だと思います。
星空観察では流れ星を3回見れました!レーザーポインターでのガイドさんの説明も分かりやすく、日本では見ることの出来ない星や、望遠鏡で見た月のクレーターは本当に美しかったです。
無料で写真も撮って下さり、これがツアー代金に含まれているなんてとってもお得だと思います!
誕生日ということもあり、星空の下、皆さんからハッピーバースデーを歌ってもらったことは一生の思い出です!ありがとうございました!

Circle Island Sightseeing Tour & Full-Day Polynesian Cultural Center Tickets

Some things good, some things not so much

Reviewed by: Brian

For starters, the show Ha! Breath of Life is AMAZING! If nothing else, that is worth a visit.

Ok, so the Circle Island Tour - yeah, you circle (most of) the island and see some cool things (briefly), but you can get circle island tours from pretty much everyone and ended up with about 3 total after all of our activities there over our week. The biggest problem with this Circle Island Tour is that it takes TOO LONG! You're going to want ample time to do the tour, but not when that time cuts into your time at the cultural center.

We did the circle island tour and the ambassador package. By the time we finished the tour and go to the center, did all the ambassador check in crap, and got to start seeing the center, we had already lost at least 1.5 hours of the already short time available to visit the various cultures. The group tour and the guide does help you learn some cool things, but it also makes everything take longer. In the end, we went back a second day so that we could see all the things we missed the first day (maybe that's the point - more $$ from the visitors??).

I don't want to lead you to believe the center is poor. On the contrary, we very much enjoyed the center. The luau was meh. The show was GREAT! We just wouldn't recommend the circle island tour (as it was for us) or the ambassador package (unless you want to buy it for the good seats but ditch the tour guide in the park).

Definitely visit the park, definitely see the show. Consider ditching the tour guide in the park, consider doing the circle island tour with another company or on a different day, and if you see a luau anywhere else, consider skipping it here (it wasn't the best luau we attended).

Note, the 3 stars if for the package, not for the center on the whole. The center was great, we just weren't keen on the package we purchased.

3-Hour Hana Rainforest Tour with Waterfall Swim & Easy Nature Walk - Hike Maui

Not a great experience

Reviewed by: Unhappy

First, once Veltra sells you something, they're done with you until they start pestering you for a review. The actual excursion was by Hike Hawaii. On the day of our trip, they called me at 6:30 AM to tell me that the kayak portion of our trip was cancelled due to high winds. We hadn't scheduled a kayak portion. So they called me at 6:30 AM because they don't have their crap together enough to know what their customers have signed up for. The excursion was basically a brief stroll through the woods, with a little fruit, a bottle of water, and a cookie provided. After paying hundreds of dollars for two of us, they actually cut the trip short and we got back 15 minutes ahead of schedule.

After that, Veltra has the nerve to send you email saying that they're expecting you're review. Not asking for one, just telling you how much they're looking forward to seeing it. There's no opt-out link for this, which I think actually violates certain standards. You have to jump through hoops to have your account removed, even though you never asked for an account to be set up in the first place.

They're pushy, presumptuous, and overpriced.

This review will never be seen because Veltra basically reserves the right to remove anything negative in their terms of use.

Warm Aloha,

Thank you very much for taking the time to write your valuable feedback on your recent experience with us. We work very closely with our activity partners to make sure that our clients are well cared for.

Unfortunately, your original requested date was not available for the short waterfall walk but in an effort to accommodate your request, Hike Maui offered to upgrade you to include optional kayaking and a complimentary lunch. Due to weather, the kayak portion was cancelled and although your lunch was packed, it did not make it to you on the trail. We accept complete responsibility for this mishap and would like to make it up to you with a full refund.

Your Hawaii experience is very important to us and we are sorry that the tour and process of booking did not meet your expectations, please accept our sincerest apologies.

It was supposed to be whale watching... ホエールウォッチングのはずが、、、

Reviewed by: オニ子

When it comes to Hawaii, whale watching is a must! I was really looking forward to it and signed up! The boat was large and had many Japanese and foreign tourists, which was great! Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales. There are certainly whale watching tours every day, and when I think about it, it's not guaranteed that you can see them every day. I had somehow convinced myself that whale watching meant you would definitely see whales, but it seems there are many days when you don't. I received a ticket for the next trip, but I wonder when I will be able to visit Hawaii again... It turned out to be just a cruise instead of whale watching. Well, the scenery was nice, but it got a bit boring after a while. I think I would have preferred to go snorkeling instead, even though there’s a chance of seeing whales, and it would be amazing if we did!

We had a lot of fun on this cruise. Entertainment was excellent. The service was excellent. We went on the fireworks cruise which was very nice. The crab legs were very good. The food was good, but could have been warmer. It may be hard on such a big boat. The only other thing that could have done better is we took the transportation from hotel to the boat and when we got there and started walking the girl leading us never talked to us just talked to another person and we just tried to keep up her so we knew where to go. When we got to boat we followed her on and went on wrong way and were corrected and told to go on another way. We were just following her on. She never turned around and said go on this way or have a good time. It was a little odd. Other than that it was a good time.

Five star tour!!

Photography is one of my favorite hobbies, but my skills are still limited. After participating on this tour I can say that I have finally learned how to operate my camera. Marie is an excellent guide and a very passionate photographer. She was teaching us not only about photography techniques, but also about the history and culture of Hawaii along the way.

This tour is designed for all levels of equipment and expertise, it does not matter if you are a beginner or a pro, if you have DSL camera or a phone, she has tips for everyone. She spends one on one time with each person on the tour so you can get the help that you need.
We explored beautiful beaches, hidden waterfall, lava formations and many other breathtaking locations. The van was clean, comfortable, they also provide water, umbrellas and camera tripod.

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for!

Reviewed by: Lani S.

I wanted to head out to the North Shore, but did not want to sit on a stodgy bus all day and listen to someone drone on and on. The Surf Bus was the PERFECT choice since I not only got to experience the highlights of the area, but got to do some fun activities as well.

I decided to do Snorkeling, the Waimea Falls nature walk and SUP. Harry was very accommodating about squeezing in two activities for the morning section, and I am so happy that he did. The snorkeling was AMAZING! It was literally like swimming in an aquarium. I got to be in the water for a little over an hour and then I was picked up to go to Waimea Falls Park. The walk was quite easy, and if you have a hard time walking, shuttles are available for $10 round-trip at the park. I didn't go into the water since I just wanted to sit and relax, but the walk to and from the waterfall was about 45 minutes total. REALLY beautiful.

For my afternoon, I chose SUP and even though I had never done it before, I figured it out pretty quickly after the briefing from the guys at the surf store. I never quite made it to the "stand up" part of "stand up paddling", but my "sit up" paddle was just as fun and I made it all the way down the river.

With about an hour left before I had to meet the bus, I had a delicious burger and fries at Teddy's Bigger Burger and washed that all down with some shave ice from Matsumotos (lychee and strawberry YUM!). All in all, a great experience and wonderful way to see the best of the North Shore in a day :)

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Amazing Experience

Reviewed by: Nunia T.

I attended the Three Star Lobster and Steak Dinner Cruise and I must say I was amazed at the customer service provided. Being on board with 1,000 passengers, the waiters and staffs did an amazing job with serving each guest on time. Our waitress was a doll, I believe Larissa is her name. The view of the sunset, and Diamond Head was breath taking. This tour is a must if you want to experience Paradise away from the city.

  • Steak was just the way I like, rare.

Be careful when selecting which type of meal you like because family members don't get to sit together if you eat something different. Otherwise, it was a wonderful time!

Star of Honolulu Sunset Buffet Dinner Cruise & Polynesian Show

一番安いクラスでしたが

Reviewed by: Takeshi

十分楽しかった。元々食事を期待しての参加では無く、ロブスターやヒレ肉は当然無しのバフェでしたが十分食事を楽しめた。5人家族、子供達も全員成人の構成です。
スタッフは一生懸命楽しませてくれたし、男性歌手はまずまずのエンタテイナーです。
たまたまですが、雲の全くない日で海に落ちる夕日は最高。狙ったとおり金曜の晩のヒルトンの花火も盛り上がりました。
毎年訪れるハワイでの10年ぶりのサンセットディナークルーズでしたが、なかなかバカにしたものではありません。おすすめします。

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

"Moved by the beautiful sunset and starry sky!" 「素敵な夕日と星空に感動!」

Reviewed by: risa

I participated in this during my honeymoon.
About five years ago, I fell in love with stargazing after seeing countless starry skies in Japan. I learned that the summit of Mauna Kea is known as "the closest place to space," and I had always wanted to go to the Big Island for my honeymoon.

During the drive to the Onizuka Visitor Center, the guide's stories were so interesting that I didn't sleep at all and kept laughing the whole time. I also learned a lot about the history of the Big Island and the animals that inhabit the mountain. Before I knew it, we arrived at the Onizuka Visitor Center and had an early dinner. The bento came with miso soup, and it was very delicious. I could feel the love in the guide's homemade miso soup.

After a break, we finally headed to the summit of Mauna Kea. From the car on the way up, I could already see the sea of clouds, and my excitement was building. I love starry skies, but I also love sunsets just as much, so it was thrilling for me to see the sea of clouds for the first time.

Upon arriving at the summit, I was greeted by a breathtaking view of the sea of clouds. The sun was setting, and the colors of the clouds were gradually changing; it was truly beautiful. The guide took many photos with our camera, so we ended up with lots of wonderful shots. Thank you!

After the sun set, we moved to the stargazing area. Unfortunately, the day of our visit was the day after the full moon, so the countless stars I had imagined were not as visible, and the sky wasn't as clear as I had hoped. I knew the moon would have an effect, but since this is the closest place to space, I had gotten my hopes up a bit too much. However, thanks to the moon, I was able to see a beautiful moon through the guide's telescope, and I was very happy to have captured it with my camera.
I was very satisfied to see the wonderful sea of clouds, sunset, moon, and starry sky. I would love to participate in a sunset or sunrise tour again someday to see the new moon's starry sky! Thank you!!!!!!!!

新婚旅行で参加しました。
5年程前に日本で無数の星空を見てから、天体観測にはまりました。
マウナケア山頂が「宇宙に最も近い場所」だと知り、新婚旅行でハワイ島へ行きたいとずっと思っていました。

オニヅカビジターセンターまでの行きの車内では、ガイドさんの話が面白くて、一睡もする事なく、ずっと笑っていました。
また、ハワイ島の歴史や山に生息する動物の説明など色々と勉強になりました。
気づいたら、オニヅカビジターセンターに着き、早めの夕食。お弁当はお味噌汁も付いていて、とても美味しかったです。
ガイドさんの手作りお味噌汁の愛情を感じました。

休憩後、いよいよマウナケア山頂へ。山頂へ行く車内から既に雲海が見え、テンションが上がっていました。
星空も好きですが、同じくらい夕日も好きなので、実際に雲海を見た事がなかった私にとって、とても興奮しました。

山頂到着後、見渡す限りの雲海。夕日が沈んでおり、雲海の色が徐々に変化していき、本当に綺麗でした。
ガイドさんが私達持参のカメラで何枚も写真を取ってくれたので、素敵なショットがいっぱい取れてました。ありがとうございます!

夕日も沈み、星空観賞エリアへ移動。ちょうど参加日が満月の次の日だったので、イメージしていた無数の星が散りばめられ、澄んだ星空ではなかったのが少し残念でした。月の影響があるのはわかってて参加したのですが、宇宙に最も近い場所なので、もう少し見えるかなぁと期待を膨らませ過ぎてしまいました。
ただ、月のお陰でガイドさんの天体望遠鏡から、とても綺麗な月を見る事ができ、月をレンズ越しに持参のカメラで撮って頂けた事がとても嬉しかったです。
素敵な雲海と夕日・月と星空を見れて、とても満足でした。
いつか新月の星空を見に、サンセットかサンライズツアーにまた参加したいです!
ありがとうございました!!!!!

Complete Pearl Harbor Tour with Lunch - Visit Main Exhibits, Memorials & Museums

History Brought to Life

Reviewed by: A. Byrne

The Pearl Harbor Heroes Adventure Tour brings a key pages from the 20th Century history to life. It is a excellent tour for people who have deep interest in history and those whose only brush with history is at the movies. The tour covers all the key points of interest at Pearl Harbor including the USS Arizona, USS Missouri, Pacific Aviation Museum and the USS Bowfin. Although it is a full day you will not have time to view all the sites in detail. One recommendation, tour the USS Bowfin before you venture in to the museum as you will not have time to do both. Overall this was money well spent and will probably do it again next time I visit Hawaii.
