Whale Watching Cruise by Star of Honolulu ホエールウォッチングクルーズ by スターオブホノルル号

Reviewed by: こうとも

On December 30, 2013, I participated with my family of six. Whether or not we encounter whales is purely a matter of luck, so there's nothing we can do about that. What we saw were the distant spouts and the tail of a whale. Unfortunately, we couldn't have an experience that we could truly say was "seeing a whale." The weather was nice, so I comforted myself by thinking of it as a cruise. Since it was early in the morning, we opted for a breakfast plan, but given the price, I didn't have high expectations, and it turned out as expected. There was quite a bit of time before we reached the whale watching point, so it might be nice to have a light snack and drink some coffee while passing the time. There weren't too many people, so we didn't have issues seeing the whales, but it would have been great if we had encountered them. What a shame.

2013/12/30に家族6名で参加しました。くじらに巡り合えるかどうか、こればかりは運ですので仕方ありませんが、見えたのは遠~くのくじらの潮吹きとくじらの尾びれでした。
残念ながら”くじらを見た”と言える体験はできませんでした。お天気はよかったので、クルーズをしたと思って自分をなぐさめました。朝早かったので、朝食つきプランにしましたが、まあこの値段ですし期待はしていませんでしたが予想どおり。くじらのポイントまではけっこう時間があったので、軽く食べてコーヒーでも飲みながら時間をつぶすにはいいのではないでしょうか。人が多すぎてクジラがみえないとかそういうことはなかったので、くじらにさえ出会えていればよかったですね。残念。

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>

If you're unsure, definitely go for this! 迷っているなら、絶対これ!

Reviewed by: yoriko

For our honeymoon, we wanted to do some stargazing, so we decided to go to Maui. I was torn between whether to do sunset or sunrise stargazing... I struggled with that decision. I also debated whether to choose an option from the travel agency or look for another tour. I kept worrying about it until the last minute.

In the end, choosing the tour from Maui All Stars was definitely the right decision! It became the best memory of our trip, and it’s a goal for us to come back again! Since the tour is affected by the weather, I honestly can’t say what it would be like on a less fortunate day, but I can say for sure that with our guide, Yamapi, we were in good hands no matter the situation. You’ll understand once you participate (laughs).

From the moment we started moving, it was fun, and because it was a small group, it felt very homey. Yamapi naturally facilitated communication with thoughtful care to create that atmosphere. Since there was interaction among participants, we were able to share the wonderful scenery with new friends, which doubled the excitement. We also made some lovely connections.

As for the tour, I usually get car sick even with medication, and my husband is prone to altitude sickness, but we had no issues at all! We were constantly excited by the changing scenery from the car. At each stop, the guide provided insights that made us go "I see!" and we had memorable photo sessions filled with laughter. The sunset was breathtaking. It was something you can't fully capture in photos; you have to experience it with all your senses.

And then for stargazing. Just watching the stars was satisfying, but this tour offered so much more, and we learned a lot. It’s enjoyable for everyone, including children and elderly people, so we’d love to bring our family along next time. The price is slightly higher than others, but once you participate, the difference in value is clear. I highly recommend it for first-timers.

I can see why there are so many repeat customers. Both Alan and Maui All Stars provided quick and courteous service. It’s a reliable tour, and once you experience it, you’ll definitely understand its value.

新婚旅行で星空観測がしたくて、行き先をマウイへ。星空観察はサンセット、サンライズのどちらと一緒にしようか、、、で悩み。
サンセットにするも、旅行会社のオプションか他のツアーから探すかで悩み。
ぎりぎりまでとにかく悩む悩む。
でも、結果はマウイオールスターズさんのツアーで大正解!!
旅行中で一番の思い出となり、また絶対にこようね!って目標にも。
ツアー内容的に天候に左右されてしまうので、正直、天候に恵まれた私達は恵まれない日がどんなものかはわかりません。
ただ、確実に言えるのはどんな状況でもガイドをしてくださる"ヤマピーさんなら大丈夫"ということ。とにかく参加したらわかります(笑)
移動中から楽しくて、少人数だからアットホーム。そんな雰囲気になるようにコミュニケーションの橋渡しを細やかな気遣いで自然にヤマピーさんしてくれます。
参加者同士の交流があるから、素晴らしい景色を共有できる仲間が増えて感動は倍増ですよ。素敵なご縁もできました。

ツアーは、いつもなら薬飲んでも車酔いが酷い私も、高山病に掛かりやすい旦那も問題なし!
車から変わっていく景色にテンションあがりっぱなし。各地点のガイドでは"なるほど"と唸ったり、ぎゃははと爆笑する思い出の写真撮影をしてくれます。
サンセットは圧巻。写真では伝えられないものを五感で感じます。
そして星空観察。観るだけでも満足ですが、それ以上のものをこのツアーは体験し、多くを学びます。お子様でも、ご高齢の方でも安心して楽しめるので、私達も家族を連れて次回は参加したいですね。
料金が他よりはわずかに高いですが、参加すればその価値の違いは一目瞭然。初めて行く方、おすすめです。
リピーターさんが多いのもよくわかります。
そして、このAlanさんも、マウイオールスターズさんも、どちらも対応が迅速、かつ丁寧です。
信頼できるツアー、体験したら絶対に意味がわかるはずです。

Thank you for participating in the tour. Ultimately, the most important thing is that our customers enjoy themselves. In fact, I might be the one having the most fun.

ツァーに参加して頂き有難うございました。やはりツァーはお客様が喜んでいただくのが第一です。実は自分が一番楽しんでいるのかもしれません。笑
のんびり、楽しく、想い出に残るツァーが出来たら嬉しいです。またマウイに一周年記念で遊びに来てくださいね!

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>

The hospitality I received on Maui. マウイ島で受けた、お・も・て・な・し

Reviewed by: 善光寺の鍵

Initially, we planned to go to Haleakalā on our own, but joining this tour was definitely the right choice. Our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, had an amazing spirit of hospitality. At the stop at Kula Lodge, he said, "I'm not a salesperson," yet he kindly explained the recommended products, which contributed quite a bit to their sales (laughs).

The sunset over the sea of clouds was incredibly beautiful. It felt like being in heaven. While it seems that the sunrise tour is more popular, it was emphasized that the sunset offers a more beautiful sky due to the fine dust in the air. There were many thoughtful touches for participants, such as providing chairs for stargazing. It truly felt like "the joy of the customer is the joy of oneself," which must mean this is his calling. While watching the stars, we realized how small we are. The trivial annoyances of daily life were forgotten.

This time, the light from the half-moon prevented us from seeing shooting stars, so I would like to join again during the new moon.

当初は自分たちでハレアカラに行く予定でいましたが、こちらのツアーに参加して大正解でした。ガイドの山内さんのおもてなし精神が素晴らしいです。途中立ち寄ったクラロッジでは「お店の回し者ではないけど」と言いつつ、丁寧におすすめ商品の説明をして下さり、かなり売り上げに貢献してしまいました(笑)
雲海に沈むサンセット、とても美しかったです。まるで天国にいるみたいでした。ツアーとしてはサンライズの方が人気があるようですが、サンセットだと空気中に微細な塵があるために空の染まりがより美しいと力説されてました。星空観察もチェアーを用意するなど、参加者への心遣いがたくさん感じられました。まさに「お客様の喜びは自身の喜び」といった感じで、天職なのでしょうね。星を見ながら我々がいかに小さな存在であることを実感しました。日常のささいな嫌なことが忘れられました。
今回は半月の光が邪魔をして降るような星は見られなかったので、次回は新月の時に合わせて参加したいです。

The shop at Claridge offers rare dressings and coffee that you can't find at major stores, making it perfect for souvenirs. Since Sunrise is not yet open, taking a break here at 1,000 meters is an ideal resting spot for climbing to 3,000 meters. It's indeed safer to climb the mountain slowly. Please come visit Maui again! We look forward to seeing you.

クラロッジの売店には大手のお店では買えないレアーなドレッシングやコーヒーなどがあって、お土産には最適です。サンライズではまだオープンしていないのと
ここ1000メートルで一息つくのも、3000メートル登るのには最適な休憩場所なのです。やはり山はゆっくり登るのが安全ですね。また是非マウイに遊びに来てくださいね!お待ちしています。

First of all, the inside of the ship is too cold. It's better to bring a jacket.
Also, everything on the ship is in English only.
I was able to see a whale in the distance, but it was much farther away than I had imagined, so I could only see it briefly and it looked small.
After that, there was nothing to do but wait to return, so I spent quite a bit of time just passing the time. There was too much free time, and I wish there had been some kind of event.
I wouldn't really recommend it.

まず、船内が寒すぎ。羽織物を持参した方がよい。
また、船内は全て英語オンリーです。
遠くの方で鯨がみれましたが、想像していたのよりだいぶ離れているので小さくしかみえず一瞬でした。
後は帰るのみなので時間をかなり弄びました。フリー時間がありすぎるので何かイベント的なものがあればよいのに。。
あまりおすすめしません。

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

To be an Ali'i, you Must Drink Kawa With an Ali'i

Reviewed by: ----------RHO----

My girlfriend and I decided to attend this luau because we were told that it is more privatized, less populated, and more personal. Indeed it was. Chiefs Luau has got be one of the most entertaining luau I have been to so far. Chief Sielu is a natural entertainer, with a real good sense of humor. The best part was Chief Sielu hand selected Ali'is to be used for demonstrations and entertainment. I believe the ali'is that he has chosen for the evening will never forget how to hold their wives, and throw them away. Overall this was the most funniest luau and great food.

I signed up for this experience because my companion, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, wanted to go on a boat, see whales, and dance the hula—all in one package. Although the wind was strong, the boat was large enough that I felt comfortable. We saw the whales' tails twice. The activities were divided into three parts: hula, ukulele, and lei-making. My friend was thrilled to finally dance as she had always wanted. The staff was also very friendly. Next time, I want to go when the whales are more active.

ハワイが初めての同行者が希望した、船に乗りたい・クジラを見たい・フラダンスを踊りたいがまとめて叶うので、申し込みました。風が強かったですが、船が大きいので、弱い私も大丈夫でした。クジラは尾だけ2回見られました。フラとウクレレとレイ作りの3つに分かれて教えてくれました。友人は念願かなって楽しそうに踊っていました。スタッフも親切でした。今度はクジラが活発な時期に行ってみたいです。

Thank you for participating in the tour! Since it's a battle with nature, there are times when the summit is exposed to strong winds and the stars may not be visible, but we will try to move to a lower altitude where we can see them.

If the clouds are thick or it's raining and visibility is poor, we can add your name to the Maui All Stars' revenge list. If you have flexibility in your schedule, you can join for free either tomorrow or next year!

Please note that the cost of the lunch and the entrance fee for Haleakalā National Park will be separate, but this is a reassuring plan that allows for multiple attempts, so everyone can participate with peace of mind. Of course, I will also share insider information about delicious restaurants in Maui! Thank you for always joining us.

ツァー参加有難うございました!自然界との戦いなので山頂が強風にさらせれて、星が見れない時がありますが、高度を下げて場所を移動して見れる場所までトライします。
それでも雲が張ったり雨で見えない場合は、マウイオールスターズはリベンジリストにお名前を載せさせて頂けます。日程の余裕があれば明日でも来年でもフリーで参加できます!
お弁当代とハレアカラ国立公園の入園料は別途負担になりますが、何回でもリベンジできる安心プランなので皆様に安心して参加して頂いています。勿論マウイの美味しいレストラン裏情報もお教え致しますね!いつも参加して頂き感謝しています。

Flying Whale 空飛ぶクジラ

Reviewed by: T.Yasuda

From March 24, 2014, for one week, my family took our first trip to Hawaii (Maui). Since we weren't interested in package tours, I researched and chose one of the option tours myself. I was skeptical about whether we could really see whales so close to the port, but... it seemed like three whales were swimming together, possibly a mother and her calf? To my great fortune, one of the whales jumped out of the water! I couldn't help but let out a joyful shout. The boat searched around for spots where the whales might surface. Nearby, small boats seemed to gather, perhaps aware of the sonar capabilities of the Star of Honolulu. At the end of the enjoyable cruise, we were also able to see a pod of about ten dolphins, making it a truly satisfying whale watching experience.

2014年3月24日から1週間、家族で初めてのハワイ(マウイ島)旅行でした。パッケージツアーに興味がないので、自分であれこれ調べてオプションツアーの一つとしてチョイスしました。港からそんなに遠くない範囲で本当にクジラを見ることができるのか半信半疑だったのですが・・・3頭が一緒に回遊していたようですが、親子でしょうか?なんと幸運にもそのうちの1頭のクジラが海中からジャンプしたのです。歓喜の叫び声が思わず漏れてしまいました。船はクジラ達が海面に出てきそうな場所を探して探し回ります。近くにはスターオブホノルル号のおそらくソナーの性能を知ってか小さなボートも群がってきますね。楽しいクルーズの最後には10数頭の群れをなすイルカも見ることができて本当に満足のいくホエールウォッチングになりました。

I participated because I wanted to see whales that are unique to this season. I didn't have high expectations since I heard mixed reviews about whether people saw them or not, but luckily, the weather was clear and hot that day, and I was able to see 5 to 6 breaches! I think I was very lucky. Since photos capture moments, it might be better to use video instead. Also, I opted for the breakfast option, but if you take your time eating, you might miss the moments, so it might not have been necessary. Sorry to the tour staff.

この時期ならではのホエールを見たくて参加。クチコミはあまり見れなかったとか見れたとか色々で運不運もあるかと期待しなかったのですが、この日は晴天で暑かったことも幸いしてか、5~6回の背うちが見れました!とてもラッキーだったと思います。写真は瞬間なので難しいのでムービーかビデオがいいかもしれません。それと朝食付きにしたのですが、ゆっくり食べていると瞬間見逃す場合もあるので無くてもよかったかもしれません。ツアーの方すみません。

Waikiki Independence Day Fourth of July Dinner Cruise - Star of Honolulu

Excellent Night.

Reviewed by: kevin gaines

I had such a wonderful time on the Star of Honolulu Independence Day Fireworks Cruise on the 4th. Everyone on the ship was very professional, nice, friendly and did everything to make sure your night and experience was a good one! The food was very good also, you never know until you try it, but it was great. The entertainment was great and I was on the first floor and staff entertained us very well with good food. The fireworks was the highlight of the evening and the 15 minutes of fireworks was sooooo nice and great to see with other ship mates. I definitely recommend the Star of Honolulu for any night or occasion while visiting the city. Lots of good memories from my last night in town while on the Star of Honolulu!

I was able to see whales! クジラ見れましたよ!

Reviewed by: ユチマル

I signed up because I wanted to take pictures of whales. Since it was the end of the season on April 13, and someone who went in January said they "didn't see any," I participated without much expectation... But, wonderfully, the whales showed up! In fact, they appeared 4 to 5 times (their heads?). I couldn't hear the captain's (or guide's?) announcements about whale sightings well in English, but I followed the dash of the foreign children, and somehow managed to take some pictures. It would have been perfect if I could have taken photos a bit closer, but seeing this much is enough, right!? I signed up without lunch this time, and it was the right choice because if I wanted to keep taking pictures, there wouldn't have been time to eat.

クジラの写真を撮りたくて申し込みました。
4/13ということでシーズン終わりで、1月に行った人が「見れなかった」と言っていたので、期待せず参加しましたが・・・。
見事、クジラさん出てくれました!それも4~5回(頭?)も!
船長(?)によるクジラ発見案内は英語でよく聞き取れなかったのですが、外国の子供たちの歓声とともにダッシュする後をついて行って、写真を何とか撮ることが出来ました。
もう少し近くで撮影することができれば最高ですが、これだけ見れれば十分でしょう!?
今回ランチなしで申し込みましたが、常に写真を撮りたかったら食事している暇はなかったので正解でした。

伝統ルアウ&ハワイアンショー「チーフズルアウ」豪華ビュッフェディナーと元世界チャンピオンのファイヤーダンスが圧巻のショー<ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイ内>

It was a wonderful show that will be remembered. 思い出に残る素晴らしいショーでした

Reviewed by: マリン

I had a wonderful experience.

The chief host was truly entertaining, and I was laughing from start to finish. I laughed so much that my stomach hurt. I even forgot to eat at the buffet and could only manage one plate.

I enjoyed the Polynesian dance and music, but I think the highlight of the show was the chief's comedic talk. It was filled with warm and witty comments, fun jokes, and stories that resonated with the heart amidst all the laughter.

However, most of the chief's jokes are geared towards adults. There were many small children present, and there were moments when they could participate in the show, but overall, I believe it is primarily an adult-oriented show.

I went with my daughter, but I highly recommend it for couples celebrating anniversaries. The chief will celebrate with you.

When I go to Hawaii again, I would love to attend this show once more.

素晴らしい思い出ができました。

司会のチーフの方が、本当におもしろくて最初から最後まで笑いっぱなしでした。
笑いすぎてお腹が痛くなりました。ビュッフェなのに食べるのを忘れて一皿しか食べられないほどでした。

ポリネシアンダンスや音楽も楽しめましたが、このショーの一番の売りはコメディアンでもあるチーフのトークだと思います。暖かく機転のきいたコメント、楽しい冗談、笑いの中にも心に響くお話と盛りだくさんでした。

ただ、チーフのジョークの内容はほとんどが大人向きです。小さいお子様たちも多くいらしていて、ショーに参加できる場面もありましたが、基本は大人のためのショーだと思います。

私は娘と行きましたが、カップルで記念日の参加はおすすめです。チーフにお祝いしてもらえます。

ハワイに行った時は、また行きたいと思います。

Whale クジラ

Reviewed by: arisa

I had heard that it was the season to see a lot of whales, so I was a bit anxious about whether we would see any... but I was very satisfied because we saw plenty. The boat was also large, so I was glad I didn't get seasick. It was great that it was a morning tour, allowing us to return to the hotel around noon, so we could enjoy plenty of activities in the afternoon.

クジラが多く見れる時期と聞いていたので、見れるのかなぁ...と不安でしたが、いっぱい見れて満足でした。
船も大きかったので、船酔いしなくて良かったです。
朝からのツアーで、お昼頃にはホテルに帰ってこれるので、午後にたっぷり遊べるのも良かったです。

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

Amazing adventure

Reviewed by: Clash56

The submarine tour is really amazing. How often can you say that you were in an actual submarine. The sub is air conditioned and really very spacious and comfortable. There is never a dull moment. Fish, coral eels and ship wrecks. Plenty to see and experience.

First time in Maui 初めてのマウイ

Reviewed by: kiyomiママ

I am truly grateful to nature.
I am thankful to Mr. Yamauchi.
No matter how many times I tried, I participated with a flutter of excitement in the face of bad weather posts.
It seems that Haleakalā accepted us, as the sunset sky transformed into a beautiful gradient.
Under the new moon, the stars scattered across the night sky looked like unspoken diamonds.
It’s a perspective on life that makes me feel like I need nothing! I proudly shared that I received a treasure with everyone.
Thank you very much.
In the end, it’s all about the fresh sashimi with lemon salt flavor.

本当に心から自然界に感謝
山内さんに感謝
なんかいトライしても、なかなか悪天候の投稿に、ドキドキしながらの参加、
ハレアカラが受け入れてくれたのか、グラデーションに変わっていくサンセットの空模様
新月の中、ことばにならないダイヤモンドを、夜空にちらばしたような満点の星

ありがとうございました。
やっぱ、最後は生げそのにぎりで、レモン塩味ですね。

Thank you for participating in the tour! While eating your bento, I have the usual question for everyone: If it was decided that tomorrow would be the last day on Earth, what would you eat? Kiyomi Mama had sushi, right? The answer is... a surprise for those who joined the tour!

ツァーに参加して頂き有難うございました!お弁当を食べている時に、皆様にいつもの質問があるのですが、地球最後が明日に決まったら何を食べますかと?
きよみママさんはにぎりでしたね、、答えは、、、ツァーに参加してのお楽しみです!!

I saw a whale. クジラ、見ました

Reviewed by: まるまる

I'm glad I got to see wild whales for the first time, but they didn't jump or anything, so I didn't feel much excitement. But I guess that's just how whales are (laughs). They seemed to swim alongside us for a long time, occasionally blowing air and showing their backs. The staff were all very nice, and you could tell they wanted to make it enjoyable for everyone. It's a big boat, so it's less likely to make you seasick, but it's still a good idea to take some motion sickness medication just in case.

野生のクジラを初めて見れてよかったですが、ジャンプなどしてくれるわけでなかったので迫力は感じられませんでした。でもこれはクジラの気分なのでしょうがないです(笑)
ずっと横には泳いでいたようなのですが、時々潮を吹いて背中が見えるくらい。
スタッフはみなさん感じがよく、楽しませようという感じが伝わってきました。
大きい船なので酔いにくいですが、酔い止め薬を飲んでおいた方が安心です。
