This cruise was amazing and my partners highlight of our trip. The captain was very informative and went through all the possible creatures we were likely to see. At the reef we saw a number of turtles being cleaned by the fish which was very interesting to see. As a bonus we even saw a humpback whale as we headed back to the dock. Would definitely recommend this cruise.
We are happy to see you had an amazing time.
We love being able to entertain you and show you the beauty of the ocean.
There's nothing better than memories that'll last a lifetime!!

The day I participated, the water was murky and hard to see.
It's different from the scenery you can see while diving.
I think it would be appreciated by older people who want to see the sunken battleships and fighter planes.
The view from the boat on the way to the submarine was fantastic!
僕が参加した日は水が濁ってて見にくかったです。
ダイビングで見れる景色とは違います。

I couldn't relax because I was constantly going in and out of the sea. I was hoping to go snorkeling in the shallow waters, but it was a wrong choice. The atmosphere on the boat was very nice.
海に入ったり、出たりが激しく、ゆっくり出来なかった。浅瀬でシュノーケリングを期待していた。セレクト間違いだった。
船での雰囲気は大変良かった。
Thank you for participating.
Wild dolphins may be found in different locations depending on the day, so it is possible to encounter them in shallow waters, but usually, snorkeling takes place a certain distance offshore.
When there are several opportunities to snorkel with dolphins, you can drop into the water each time, but it is also perfectly fine to stay on the boat according to your condition.
I apologize for any lack of guidance.

ご参加ありがとうございます。
野生のイルカはその日によりいる場所が違うため浅瀬で出会ううこともありますが、通常はある程度は沖でシュノーケルとなります。
イルカとのシュノーケルのチャンスが何度かあるときはその度に海にドロップしていただけますが、ご体調に合わせてそのまま船に残っていただいても大丈夫です。
ご案内が行き届かず申し訳ございませんでした。

I'm glad I was able to participate the next day, but I couldn't see the whales as well as I wanted from the photos. However, I felt good about the cruise! I thought it might be better if the duration was a little shorter.

Well, we were very excited to go on this tour. We have gone out in Alaska on whale tours and had a blast. First of all we noticed that the "safety" protocols were not very obvious. There were 12 guests on board and we noticed ONE life jacket. You basically scream across the water for over an hour, sitting on the edge of the raft and got bounced to kingdom come. We did see a mama and baby whale, which was nice. But, we both got sick on the boat. The staff was nice, but not overly accommodating with our throwing up and getting sick.
Aloha, I'm sorry you get seasick, when on a whale watch the raft does sit and bob around for a good hour while looking at whales. Upon boarding there is a short briefing on where to put your foot and where the life vests are, the one up front is just out for demonstration and looks. Each boat has 18 adult and 4 child life jackets and the area is labeled above the hatch. The raft is an adventure that can be bumpy but since 10 other guest were on board for a three hour tour our hands are tied with cutting the trip short to accommodate seasick passengers. There is not much in our control except hoping people take seasick precautions before our boarding a boat. We do have ginger ale on board to help those tummies rumbles. Hope we can see you again and change your mind about our rafting adventure.

In February 2015, I participated in a tour and completely forgot to leave a review.
I heard that the day before and the day before that, there were strong wind warnings, and the tours were canceled, but on the day I booked, it was held. Fortunately, I was able to encounter a pod of dolphins, which was amazing. However, February in Hawaii is really cold. I tend to get cold easily, and even with a wetsuit rental, the water was too cold. I didn't even have the courage to get in the water except for swimming with the dolphins.
In addition to the cruise, I enjoyed the hula dancing (even though I couldn't do it at all because it was too difficult), and the conversations with the crew were fun, but there was one thing. The pickup time was quite early, which I knew from the beginning, but I was surprised when I received a call to confirm the pickup time while it was still dark outside. While I appreciate the confirmation call, the timing was really too much. Plus, it's rare for the phone in my room to ring while traveling abroad, so it startled me. I wish they had mentioned it in advance if it was absolutely necessary. That's the only thing I still clearly remember even after five years.

すごく前に参加してすっかりレビューもせずにおりました。
前日・前々日が強風警報が出てて、ツアーも中止になったとのことでしたが
自分が予約した日は開催されました。
そして運よくイルカの群れにも遭遇出来てすごくよかったです。
ただ、2月のハワイってめっちゃ寒い。
元々寒がりなのもあるけれど、ウェットレンタルしても水が冷たすぎて。
イルカと泳いだ以外、水に入る勇気さえなかったです。
クルーズの他、フラダンスや(難しくてちっともできなかったけど)
クルーたちの会話も楽しかったですが一つだけ。
ピックアップの時間がかなり早かったのですが
それは最初から分かっていたのでいいのですが、それよりも前の暗いうちに
ピックアップ時間の確認TELなどが来たこと。
確認の連絡はありがたいけれど、時間がヤバすぎ。
しかも海外で旅行中に部屋の電話が鳴るってほとんどないのでまずびっくりするし。
必ず必要なら前もって言っててほしかったですね。
それだけが5年経った今もはっきり覚えてます。

Meeting a large mother and baby whale was truly moving. At the same time, I thought about how the approaching boats must be a nuisance for the mother whale caring for her newborn, which left me with somewhat mixed feelings. What is the ideal way for modern humans to connect with the natural world? While we understand this in our daily lives, we often don’t think deeply about it. I realized that we need to reconsider the power of humans and civilization that has even pushed the largest mammals in Earth's history, the whales, to the brink of extinction.
A beautiful world should remain beautiful.
A wonderful nature should remain as it is.
This tour taught me the preciousness of simply connecting lives.
大きなクジラの親子に会えたのはやはり感動がありました
と同時に生まれたばかりの子供の世話をしているお母さんクジラにとってはボートで近づいてくる人間は迷惑なんだろうなと思い、少々複雑な感情にもなりました。
自然界と現代人の繋がりかたの理想とはどんなものなのか。普段の生活では理解していても深くは考えないものですが、地球史上最大の哺乳類と言われるクジラさえも絶滅の危機に追いやってしまった人間の力、文明の威力を改めて考える必要があると実感しました。
綺麗な世界が綺麗なままで。
素晴らしい自然がありのままで。
命をただ繋ぐ尊さを教えてもらったツアーでした。

I had very little experience with boarding a ship, but there were staff members who spoke Japanese, and the other staff were also kind, which made me feel very at ease. There was a wide variety of alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, which was enjoyable. Although the chances of seeing a whale were low, they searched diligently, and I was able to see its tail. I also got to see dolphins up close for a long time, which I didn't think would be possible. It was a very enjoyable plan.
船に乗る経験もほとんどありませんでしたが、日本語を話せるスタッフがいたり、他のスタッフも親切でとても安心して過ごせました。
アルコール類やソフトドリンクも豊富で楽しかったです。
鯨も確率は低いそうですか、熱心に探してくれ、尻尾を見ることができました。また、見れないと思っていたイルカを近くで長時間見れました。

I participated with my 3-year-old child. The dolphins' eyes were adorable, and it was my first time touching them, which felt quite strange. They let us hear their sounds and splashed us with their fins, which was fun. It was my child's first time in a big pool, and it turned out to be a great experience. Wearing life jackets made us feel safe.
There were many foreign guests, so it felt like we were abroad. The staff only spoke English, but they communicated well with gestures, so it was fine! There was also a dolphin show, areas where we could touch starfish, and a play area for kids, making it a fun place to visit!

What an experience! This tour is definitely worth it. The boat only takes out a max of 6 people which allows for more cage time and less crowds. The cage was plenty big for everyone to see and not feel cramped. We had sharks around us the entire time we were in the water and the water was so clear it was quite the experience. The crew was awesome and very knowledgeable about not only sharks but whales as well. We were able to stop on our way back into harbor and watch the whales for a little bit. Overall such a great experience, highly recommend!

Although we were a bit far from them, we could definitely feel their presence, which was very fulfilling. It seems that the encounter rate is high, so I think it's worth going during whale season.

We boarded a large ship and headed offshore from Honolulu. We could see the Honolulu skyline and Diamond Head, and we searched for whales at a distance quite close to the land.
When a whale is spotted, there’s an announcement on the ship saying, “There it is at the direction of ◯ o'clock,” so we can move smoothly. (laugh)
In the first half, the whales were so far away that we couldn’t see them at all without binoculars, and I wasn’t excited at all. However, in the second half, suddenly two whales came close to the ship! I was thrilled to see them spouting water and their fins with the naked eye! I felt the grandeur of nature. I highly recommend it! 😊

It was my first whale watching cruise. Since you can't guarantee a sighting, I was nervous, but I'm glad we were able to see them safely.
We didn't see the spectacular jumps like in the photos, but a baby whale popped its head up several times, and it was very cute. I wonder if it was practicing its jumps?
The cruise was longer than I expected, and even if we hadn't seen any whales, I think I would have been fully satisfied just enjoying the beautiful sea and scenery of Hawaii.
By the way, we took the bus from our hotel in Honolulu to the meeting point, and even as a first-time bus rider in Hawaii, I arrived safely. However, the bus frequency is low, so be careful with the timing.
Next time, I hope to see some impressive jumps!
初めてのホエールウォッチングクルーズでした。必ず見れるわけではないので、ドキドキでしたが、無事に見れて良かったです。
写真で見るような豪快なジャンプは見れませんでしたが、赤ちゃんクジラが何度も顔を出してくれて、とても可愛かったです。ジャンプの練習してたのかな?
思ったよりクルージングも長く、もしクジラが見れなかったとしても、ハワイの綺麗な海と景色が見れて充分満足だったと思います。
ちなみに、集合場所までは自分たちでホノルルのホテルからバスで行きましたが、ハワイのバス初体験の私でも無事に到着できました。ただし、バスの本数は少ないので、時間には要注意です。
次回は、豪快な迫力あるジャンプが見れれば良いなと思います。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are glad you were able to encounter the adorable baby whale!
We are also very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time with us.
We hope to see you next time for some spectacular jumps!
All of our staff look forward to welcoming you again.

I would give it 0 points.
We weren't even able to set sail, and there was no communication.
I had booked a hotel transfer plan, but when the time came, the bus didn't arrive. When I called, I was told, "We found a defect in the boat, and we can no longer set sail." If it were due to weather or something similar, that would be one thing, but a defect in the boat?
Moreover, there was no communication at all, and I only found out it was canceled after I reached out.
We were on our honeymoon, and it was truly disappointing. I was told I could reschedule for another day, but there's no guarantee that the same issue won't happen again, and I can't trust this company, so I canceled.
I urge the tour company to establish a system that allows for immediate communication in case of cancellations, so that no one else has to go through this kind of experience. In this day and age, there are countless ways to communicate, including email, chat, and apps, not just phone calls.
I hope no one else has to suffer the same fate.

そもそも出航すらできておらず、連絡も無し。
ホテル送迎プランで予約してましたが、時間になってもバスが来ず、こちらから電話してみると「ボートに不備が見つかり出航が出来なくなりました」とのこと。
天候などの理由ならまだしも、ボート不備って。
しかもなんの連絡も無く、こちらから連絡して初めて「キャンセルになりました」って。
新婚旅行で来ていたのですが、本当に残念です。
別日に変更可能と言われましたが、次回同じことが起きない保証もないし、この会社自体信用できないのでキャンセルしました。
ツアー会社さんは、二度とこのような被害者を出さないよう、キャンセル時はすぐに連絡が出来る仕組みを整えてください。
このご時世、電話だけでなくメール、チャット、アプリなど方法はいくらでもあると思うので。
同じ被害に遭う人が出ないことを祈ります。
Thank you for your reservation at Manta University.
I sincerely apologize for the sudden tour cancellation and for the difficulties in communication that caused significant inconvenience to you.
We tried our best to reach out, but unfortunately, we were unable to establish contact this time.
We will strive to improve so that incidents like this do not happen again in the future.
If you have the opportunity, we would be grateful if you could join us again.

この度はマンタ大学にご予約を頂きありがとうございました。
また、突然のツアーキャンセルなった上、ご連絡が上手く取れず
お客様に大変なご迷惑をおかけしてしまった事、心よりお詫び申し上げます。
こちらも出来る限りの方法でご連絡を取ろうとしたのですが、
今回はうまく連絡を取る事が出来なかった次第です。
今後、今回のようなことがまた起きないように、改善に努めてまいります。
もし機会がございましたら、再度ご参加頂ければ幸いでございます。

When we went out to sea on a large double-hulled boat, we saw many whales spouting, and shortly after, we encountered one swimming leisurely nearby, which was thrilling. I had heard that a lot of whales come during this season, but I was truly surprised. I would love to go see them again when I visit Maui.
大型双頭船で沖合いまで出ると、たくさんのクジラの潮吹きが見えて、そのあとすぐ近くを悠々と泳いでいるのに遭遇し、感激しました。この時期はクジラがかなりやって来るとは聞いていたのですが、本当にビックリしました。また、マウイにいくときはもう一度見に行きたいです。
