Atlantis Kona Submarine Tour & Undersea Adventure - Descend up to 100 feet

Awesome! Our favorite adventure from this vacation.

Reviewed by: Maren

This submarine cruise was amazing!! The crew was so friendly and our guide was funny. It was obvious everyone loved their job. Our guide was obviously an experienced diver because he knew so much about all the various fish we saw and had lots of great stories involving the different fish/coral.

The visibility was amazing the day we went. I think I took almost 200 pictures. We were so surprised when we saw 2 shipwrecks on the cruise. Such a fun bonus!

My husband is very outdoorsy and was a little whiny about doing the submarine over an actual snorkel day cruise. He loved the submarine and thought it was so much fun. We will definitely do it again when we're back.

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show & Dinner Buffet with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Very fun experience!

Reviewed by: Wendy

After swimming with the dolphins at Sea Life Park, we simply walked back through the park to the Luau (very convenient). We were greeted warmly with a shell necklace and photo op with the Chief, and then got to enjoy some games (spear tossing, a Polynesian version of musical chairs (except with sticks), braiding palm leaves to make head-bands, and hula dancing). There were also some tables with native-made goods for sale. Then the Chief led the unveiling ceremony of the roasted pig (he is very entertaining and funny), got our non-alcoholic drinks and food (which was very tasty, especially the pineapple cake!), and then enjoyed the show. The hula dancers were very talented, the fire dancers where great, and it was neat to see all the different dance styles of the islands that were represented. It was our 2nd wedding anniversary, so we got to go up on stage with some other couples and they honored us with some pretty flowers! The only down-side was that the location is a little small, but other than that, we had a great time!

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ（キングカメハメハホテル内）＜ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題／シェルレイ付＞

It was a relaxed show. ゆったりとしたショーでした

Reviewed by: catslove

We were seated at 5 PM, and the actual show started around 7 PM. Until then, we enjoyed drinks, hula experiences, and traditional Hawaiian cuisine. The show featured not only hula but also dances from other islands like Samoa. Between the dances, there were talks and songs from the host, and I thought it might have been more enjoyable if I understood a bit more English. The time flowed leisurely, and depending on the seats, you might not be very close to the stage, so small children might get bored.

17時に着席し、実際にショーが始まるのは19時ごろからでした。それまでは、ドリンクやフラ体験、ハワイの伝統料理などを楽しみました。ショーでは、フラだけでなく、サモアなど、他の島のダンスもありました。ダンスの合間に司会者のトークや歌があり、もう少し英語が分かればもっと楽しかったかなと思います。時間もゆったりと流れますし、席によってはそれほどステージに近くないため、小さなお子様は飽きてしまうかもしれません。

A whale is jumping! 鯨が跳ねる！

Reviewed by: noriko

The ship was large, and I was worried about the swaying, but it wasn't too bad. They announced the direction where the whales were, so I was able to see them well. However, it seems that due to wildlife protection, we couldn't get too close, so I couldn't really grasp the size of the whales. At first, I even thought they might be dolphins.

船も大きく心配していた揺れもあまりありませんでした。
鯨がいる方向をアナウンスしてもらえるのでよく見ることが出来ました。ただ、野生生物の保護上あまり近くに寄ることは出来ないようで実際のところ鯨の大きさを実感することは出来ませんでした。イルカかなと最初は思ったほどです。

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

It's always a wonderful experience with Star of Honolulu!

Reviewed by: Ms. Ems

It's my 3rd time with Star of Honolulu and they never fail to amaze me!
I was greeted with a beautiful smile by Kathleen at the ticket office. She was very nice, friendly, and it seems like she was enjoying her job. Before we boarded, the dancers are always very entertaining, a unique way to welcome their guests (yes, I've been to other dinner cruises and only Star of Honolulu has this great idea).
At the boat, here comes the cheerful and very energetic Freddie, who took us to our table. He didn't realize there were eight (8) of us but he was able to accommodate us right away having our own table by the window! He is the Assistant Floor Manager and I was really impressed with his friendliness and bright personality, he is funny too! The couples that we were with are visitors from Canada, celebrating their Silver Wedding Anniversary. I forgot to mention this special occasion when I made the booking so I told Freddie if there’s a way he can announce it after dinner. Knowing how busy they were, I never expected it to happen but I was extremely happy and grateful that he didn't forget. After the Polynesian entertainment, he immediately pulled my couple family towards the stage to make their dance. All the other couples, honeymooners, anniversary celebrants, followed. It was an honor!! Thank you so much Freddie for that, it was a memory of a lifetime for my family.
I would also like to give credit to Jay, who was our server that night, in fact all the crew members because they know how to take care of their guests, they're fast and attentive! The One Star package is not bad at all, I actually like this better than the Three Star believe it or not and IT'S ALL YOU CAN EAT CRAB LEGS!! Yummy! The steak was delicious also, so tender and juicy!
Will definitely cruise with Star of Honolu again and again! True "Aloha" spirit..good impression for those visiting the islands for the first time...greatly satisfied with the services they offer. Thumbs up SOH!!

We stayed in Maui for 7 nights on our honeymoon, and decided to visit Haleakalā, so my husband, my sister, and I participated together. As we gradually acclimated, we drove up and kept putting on more layers. It was quite cold, so I wore a borrowed down jacket over my own. The sunset and the starry sky were amazing. We even saw shooting stars, which was fantastic. For newlyweds, there’s the spirit Shakamanda that comes around a lot. It was incredible! The explanations were impressive as well. I highly recommend it! We were well taken care of by everyone.

I could faintly see a tail in the distance. 遠くに微かに尻尾が見えました。

Reviewed by: リボ子

We participated as a family. I think more than half of the guests were Japanese. After we set sail for a while, the captain stopped in an area where whales might be and made announcements in English about which direction they were located. Everyone then rushed over to that side, straining their eyes and holding their breath, staring at the sea. (That silent moment felt strange.)

In my case, there were about 5 or 6 instances like that, but I hardly saw anything. (The photo was taken with a super telephoto lens.) Even if a whale spouted water occasionally, it was hard to tell where it would appear in the vast ocean, and most of the time it was either very far away or a fleeting moment that I missed. No matter how brief or distant it was, if a whale appeared, it would count as an "encounter," so it seems we wouldn't receive a free ticket for the next time.

However, it really seems to be a matter of luck. A lady I met on the boat said that the last time she went, a whale came very close, and it was an impressive sight!

家族で参加しました。お客さんの半分以上は日本の方だったと思います。出港してしばらくすると、船長さんが鯨のいそうなあたりを探して泊まり、英語でどこの方角に居ますとかアナウンスが入ります。すると皆一斉にそっちへ行って目を凝らして海をジッと固唾をのんで目つめます。（そのシーンとした時間が変な感じでした）
私の場合はそういうのが5～6回あって、ほとんどが見れなかった。（写真はカメラの超望遠です）たまに潮ふいたとしても、広い海のどこに出るかわからないし、すんごい遠くにだったり、一瞬の出来事で見逃してしまうのがほとんどかも。どんなに一瞬でも、どんなに遠くでよく見えなくても、現れれば「遭遇した」となるので、次回の無料券はもらえないみたい。
でも、ほんとに運みたいで、船上であったご婦人は、前に乗ったときはすぐ近くに鯨がきて迫力だったわ！なんて仰っておりました。

Reviewed by: めんちゃん４２

It was the right choice to select the largest boat in Hawaii since our family is prone to seasickness. There was absolutely no rocking, so we had no worries about seasickness and thoroughly enjoyed the lunch buffet. While eating lunch, we were able to see many humpback whales spouting, dorsal fins, and tail fins, which got the kids really excited. Onboard, we made leis using orchids that were sized to be worn on our heads, and my daughter had the opportunity to present in front of everyone after taking a hula dance lesson, which made her very happy. The men who took the ukulele lesson also had a performance, and the host sang famous songs from the area where the American guests were from, playing the ukulele and really engaging the guests onboard. It was truly entertaining. For the Japanese guests, they played and sang "Ue o Muite Arukou" on the ukulele, and it was really fun.

船酔いし易い親子なので、ハワイで一番大きな船を選んで正解でした。
全く揺れず船酔いの心配は皆無で、ランチバイキングも存分に満喫できました。
ランチを食べながら沢山の親子のザトウクジラの潮吹き、背びれ、尾びれ等が見られ、子供達も大興奮。
船上では蘭を使って頭に乗せるサイズのレイを作り、フラダンスの講習を受けた娘の頭に乗せて、皆の前で発表もする機会があり、娘も大満足。
ウクレレ講習を受けた男性陣の発表もあり、司会進行役の方はアメリカのお客さんが来た地区に合わせて、その地区の有名な歌をウクレレで唄い、凄く上手に船内のお客さんを盛り上げてくれていて、本当にエンターテイナーでした。
日本人に対しては、ウクレレで「上を向いて歩こう」をウクレレで弾きながら唄い、本当に楽しかったです。

I was able to see a whale, but... クジラ見れましたが・・・

Reviewed by: カメハメハ

I participated in the tour on April 11. I opted for the shuttle service, but there was only one other group besides my child and me. The bus driver was very pleasant and made sure to check if the air conditioning was too cold for us. The tour guide was also very nice.

When we arrived at the port, it seemed that the other tour guests had come on their own, and I thought we could have taken The Bus as well. Once on board, we were given a file with explanations about the ship and whales in English, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, and we were instructed to wait in the cabin until the captain's speech was over.

Until we reached the viewing point, announcements about whales and viewpoints on Oahu were made in Japanese as well. When we stopped at the point, we were able to see some whales after a while, but only a little bit of spouting, backs, and tails were visible from the waves. If you’re not carefully watching the surface of the water, you might miss them, so if you're expecting to see big jumps like in photos, you might be disappointed. However, it was great to see the large cruise ships, Waikiki, and Diamond Head from the sea.

Once we were out at sea, the wind was strong, and there were moments when the boat rocked quite a bit, so if you tend to get motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication beforehand. On the way back, I asked the driver to drop us off at the Ward Shopping Center near the port instead of our hotel in Waikiki, which helped shorten our travel time, and that was great.

4月11日にツアー参加。
送迎有りにしましたが、利用したのは私達親子の他、もう一組のみでした。バスのドライバーさんは感じがよく、エアコンが寒くないか等気遣って頂きました。
添乗員さんもすごく感じが良かったです。
港まで行くと他のツアー客は自力で来た様で、ザ・バスでも行けたなと思いました。
乗船すると、船やクジラの説明が記載された（英語、日本語、中国語、韓国語）ファイルを渡され、船長のスピーチが終わるまで船室で待つようにとのことでした。
ポイントに着くまで、クジラやオアフ島でのビューポイント等の説明が日本語でもアナウンスされていました。
ポイントで停泊し、しばらくするとクジラは見れましたが、波間からほんの少し潮吹きや背中や尾ビレが見えるくらいでした。
注意深く海面を見ていないと見逃してしまいそうな程でしたので、写真で見る大ジャンプ等を期待して行くとがっかりします。
でも海上から大型クルーズ船やワイキキ、ダイアモンドヘッドを見れたのは良かったです。
沖に出ると風が強く、大きく揺れる場面もあったので、乗り物酔いする方はあらかじめ薬を飲んでおいた方がよいかもしれません。
帰りはドライバーさんにお願いして、ワイキキのホテルではなく、港近くのワードショッピングセンターで降ろしてもらいましたので、移動時間を短縮する事ができ、良かったです。

I think you can still have fun even if you don't see any whales. クジラに会えなくても楽しめると思います。

Reviewed by: 思い出は心に

Since it's nature, I prepared myself for the possibility that I might not see any whales (but deep down, I really wanted to). The weather was nice, so I thought just seeing the hotels in Waikiki from the ocean would be a good experience. However, I did get to see the whales! (I’m not sure how low my expectations were, but it felt like I encountered more than I had anticipated. Once they started appearing, they were quite visible almost continuously.) I didn’t get to see the dynamic jumps like in the tour's promotional photos, but I did see them spouting water, and I enjoyed watching what seemed to be a mother and calf taking breaths in succession multiple times.

I think taking photos is quite challenging. By the time you think, "There it is," they dive back down, so with a smartphone camera, by the time you press the shutter, it’s almost guaranteed that you’ll only capture waves (laughs). My mother was using a compact camera, but when I looked at the photos later, it was like, "Hmm?? Where??" Unless you have the right skills and a camera (with zoom and continuous shooting), I recommend just imprinting the experience in your memory.

I didn’t fully understand what "English guide" meant, and I was actually a bit anxious, but I think it probably means that the guide who assists during pickup will only speak English. It seems that as long as you can say your name (the applicant's name) at the reception, there won’t be any issues. After confirming the name, I was given a sticker as a boarding pass. I boarded a large shared bus (like a tour bus) at the Sheraton, and after getting on, a video with announcements in Japanese played inside the bus. Once on board, the captain and guide greeted us and provided information, all in English. They explained how long we would be traveling, when lunch would start, and which direction to look for whales. After the explanations, a recorded announcement in Japanese was played.

The announcements regarding the whales were also in English, but since everyone else on board looked in the same direction, it was okay even if you couldn’t catch everything in English.

I brought my grandmother, who has difficulty walking, but even without going out to the third-floor observation deck, we could see the whales (spouting water) well from inside the cabin.

My 11-year-old son was so excited that he forgot to eat. I even thought it might have been fine without a meal.

As we approached the time to return to land, an experience program started on the boat. I participated in a lei-making experience, which was a great experience. In the hula class, the little hula girls were dancing with all their might. The ukulele class seemed popular with the fathers, and at the end, there was a collaboration with the little hula girls that turned into a mini showtime, allowing even the other passengers who weren’t participating to enjoy it together.

This tour, where you might get to see humpback whales that you can't see at an aquarium, is definitely worth participating in. I didn’t need it, but for those who might be anxious, I think it would be good to bring motion sickness medication.

対、自然のことなので、クジラには会えないかもという心づもりで（でも本心は会いたい）臨みました。
天気がよかったので、滞在しているワイキキのホテル群を沖から見るだけでもいい経験だと思います。
ですが、ちゃんとクジラたちには会えました！
（どんだけ期待値低かったのかはわかりませんが）思っていたよりたくさん遭遇できたように感じます。見えだしたらけっこう絶え間なく見えます。
ツアーの商品紹介の写真のようなダイナミックなジャンプを見ることはかないませんでしたが、潮を吹くところも見れましたし、親子でしょうか立て続けに息継ぎをする様を何度も楽しむことができました。
写真を撮るのは至難の業だと思います。
「出た」と思ったらすぐに潜ってしまうので、スマホのカメラですとシャッターを押すころにはほぼ間違いなく波しか写っていません（笑）
母はコンデジで撮っていましたが、後から見ましたら「う～ん？？どこ？？」な感じでした。
それ相応のテクとカメラ（望遠・連写）をお持ちの方でないならば自分の目に焼き付けることをお勧めします。

＜英語ガイド＞というのがよく理解できていなくて、実は内心不安でしたがおそらく送迎時に対応してくれるガイドの方が英語しか話せませんよという意味でしょうか。
受付の時に自分の（申込者）名前さえ言えれば問題ないようです。
名前のチェックが済むと乗車券がわりのシールを渡されました。
シェラトンで乗合の大型バス（観光バスのようなもの）に乗ったのですが、乗車後に車内のビデオで日本語の案内が流れます。
乗船してから船長やガイドの方があいさつや案内があります。これはすべて英語です。
今からどれくらい移動するとか、何時ごろランチが始まるとか、クジラが見える方向はガイドが教えますとか、そういったことを説明しているようです。
一通り説明が終わると日本語で録音されたアナウンスが流れます。

肝心のクジラが見えだしてからのアナウンスも英語ですが、一緒に乗船している他の方が一斉にその方向を見ますので、英語が聞き取れなくても大丈夫でした。

足の悪い祖母を連れて行きましたが、３階の展望デッキに出なくとも、室内からでも十分クジラの姿（潮を吹く様）を見ることができました。

１１歳の息子は興奮しっぱなしで、食事をするのも忘れるほどでした。
食事なしでもよかったかもと思うくらい。

陸に戻る時間になると、船内で体験プログラムが始まります。
レイ作り体験を体験しましたが、とてもいい経験になりました。
フラ教室ではチビッコフラガールたちが一生懸命踊っていました。
ウクレレ教室はお父様方に人気のようで、最後にチビフラガールたちとコラボでミニーショータイム状態になって盛り上がり参加していない他の乗客たちも一緒に楽しめました。

水族館では見ることができないザトウクジラに会える（かもしれない）ツアー、
是非参加されると良いでしょう。
私は必要ありませんでしたが、不安な方は酔い止めを持参されるとよいと思います。

This tour was the last thing I did in Hawaii, but certainly the most beautiful and the most intense.

I met at dawn my personal guide, Jasmine Kilborn, a magnificent Hawaiian girl who transmitted to me all her love for the island of Maui, for the history of Hawaii, for their traditions. We visited amazing places and we breathed the magic of nature in its more authentic splendor: old Lahaina, Nakalele Blowhole, Makamakaole Stream and Waterfalls.... The road itself was worth the travel and during the trip Jasmine told me about religion, Hawaiian language, Hawaiian habits and she put traditional music and songs to accompany the emotions that we lived. I felt a real sense of accomplishment! MAHALO NUI LOA!

I was worried about seasickness, but since it was a large boat, I was completely fine, and the view of the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea was wonderful.

In the reviews, it mentioned that whales could only be seen from a distance, so I didn't have high expectations, but when we went out to sea and stopped the boat, a mother and baby whale swam right next to us, and we were able to see them up close. I was so moved when I saw them spouting water and their backs and tails that I couldn't help but cheer.

Since there was a campaign where one child could join for free with each adult, I was able to have this valuable experience at a great price, and I'm glad I participated in this tour.

船酔いが心配でしたが、大きな船だったのてぜんぜん大丈夫で、海側からのワイキキのホテル群やダイヤモンドヘッドの景色も素晴らしかったです。

口コミでは、遠くでしかクジラがみれなかったとあったのであまり期待はしてなかったのですが、沖にでて船を停めてると親子のクジラが船のすぐそばを泳いで行き間近でみれました。
潮を吹いて、背中、尾びれが見えた時は思わず歓声をあげてしまうほど感動しました。

ハレアカラ山頂 夕日鑑賞＋星空観測ツアー　1名～参加OK！グループや家族連れにおすすめの貸切プランあり＜午後／日本語ガイド＞

Thank you, Rick. リックさん、ありがとう。

Reviewed by: よしゆき

There were 10 participants in the tour. Our guide was Rick, who had previously worked as a wedding planner in Honolulu. He was lively and attentive. I had expected the representative to guide us, but he was on a business trip to Japan, so Rick took over.

The participants joined us at a Krispy Kreme Doughnuts along the way, where we received one doughnut and a drink. There were two types of doughnuts: the original and a flavor not available in Japan. I thought it would have been better if the guide had asked for our preferences since the original can be found in Japan.

We made stops at souvenir shops and for restroom breaks to prevent altitude sickness before reaching the summit. We were able to see a beautiful sunset, and Rick took many photos for us. The scenery was breathtaking, changing my perspective on life. I felt the grandeur of the earth and the universe, and in that vastness, I felt small. It gave me courage to keep going.

We had a Japanese bento box in the car, which was fairly good. The warm tea was a nice touch. Next, we moved to a point where we could see the stars clearly. Once the chairs and telescopes were set up, we prepared for the cold and headed outside. I was amazed at how many stars there were. I realized that the North Star was lower in the sky, and being close to the equator in Maui was a new experience for me. We could clearly see the Big Dipper as well. I thought it would have been great to have the star chart I used in elementary school to better understand the explanations. Rick provided thorough explanations, and we got a good view of Venus, which was also impressive.

However, it was very cold outside. They provided some warm clothing, but it might be better to bring your own, especially a warm hat and gloves. Having Heattech would be even better.

I found the discussions about the silver sword plant and the nene bird to be very interesting.

Thank you, Rick, for a wonderful tour!

ドーナッツはオリジナルと日本にはないフレーバーの２種類。ガイドさんが適当において行く。オリジナルは日本でも食べられるから好みを聞いて注文してくれればよいのにと思いました。

途中、高山病を防ぐ為にお土産屋さんやトイレ休憩をはさみ、山頂へ。
きれいなサンセットを観れました。写真もたくさん撮ってくれました。人生観変わるようなそんな景色に感動。大地・宇宙の雄大さを感じ、その中にいる小さな自分。がんばろう、と勇気をもらいました。

車中で日本食のお弁当。まぁまぁおいしい。温かいお茶もうれしいサービス。
次は星がよく見えるポイントへ移動。椅子や望遠鏡の準備が整ったら防寒の準備をしていざ、外へ。
こんなにも星ってあったんですね、と感動。北極星が下の方にあり、北半球でも赤道に近くマウイに来ているんだと改めて実感。北斗七星もきれいに柄杓が観れました。小学校で使った星図版を持って説明と聞けば良く理解出来ただろうな〜と。リックさんもきちんと説明してくれました。金星もよ〜く観れてまたまた感動。
でも外は寒い寒い・・・。防寒は貸してくれるけど自分でも持って行った方がよいかも。特に温かい帽子と手袋。ヒートテックもあればなおさらいいかも。

その他、銀剣草やネーネーの話は興味深く聞かせてもらいました。

リックさん、すてきなツアーをありがとうございました。

The pickup was smooth without any waiting, and the boat was average. Since it was a no-meal course, my main goal was to see whales, but in the end, I could only see the whales' backs. The locals mentioned that there have been fewer sightings this year, and I didn't see any jumping. It's partly luck, and it's understandable since they are wild animals.

On the way back, I wanted to walk to downtown instead of taking the bus, so I communicated that to the driver, who kindly agreed and even guided me along the way.

ピックアップも待つことなくスムーズで船も普通で食事なしコースだったので鯨を見るだけが狙いでしたが…結局鯨の背中しか見ることができませんでした。今年は少なくジャンプしてる姿は見ていないと地元の方もおっしゃっていました。半分は運ですね。自然の生き物だから仕方ないですね。
帰りもバスに乗らず歩いてダウンタウンに行きたかったからドライバーさんに伝えると気持ちよくOKして道案内までしていただきました。

We didn't get up to Diamond Head as announced as we had to head back to port for a health emergency with one of the crew.
Otherwise food was great and atmosphere fantastic!
