冬季限定！ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ＜12～4月／英語ガイド／ラハイナ港発＞

Early morning watching 早朝ウオッチング

Reviewed by: umehara kanichi

I stayed at a guesthouse in Kaanapali next to Lahaina. We departed at 6:50 AM, took 5 minutes to reach the public parking lot, and then walked for another 5 minutes to the meeting point. There were already a lot of tourists gathered.

We boarded at 7:30 AM for a 2-hour whale watching tour. I was hoping to see whales like in the pictures, but all we saw that day was just a glimpse of a tail. It felt like the end of the season. I want to try again next year.

Lahaina隣のKaanapaliの民宿に宿泊、6時50分出発、パブリック駐車場迄5分、その後5分歩いて集合場所に行った。すでに大勢の観光客が集まっていた。
7時半に乗船し2時間のウオッチング。写真で見るようなクジラを期待していたが、この日は少し尾ひれが見えただけ。シーズン終わりの感がした。来年再チャレンジしたい。

Whale watching was amazing! ホェールウォッチング　最高でした！

Reviewed by: Funky Oyaji

On the third day of our family's first 3-night, 5-day trip to Maui, we joined an early morning tour that was a good deal, even though it wasn't the time for the Japanese guide. We thought we might see whales while looking at the ocean. It seemed like we went out far enough where other tour boats didn't go. We even encountered whales crossing right in front of our boat. ...And the guide exclaimed "Incredible!" because we took the best photos. And it was all with an iPhone. It was the best whale watching experience on our first trip to Maui. I would love to participate again.

家族4人の3泊5日初マウイ弾丸旅行の3日目、日本語ガイドが乗る時間帯ではないが海を見ていればクジラが観れるだろうと早朝のツアーが割安だったので参加しました。ほかのツアーの船がいかない沖まで行っていたように思えます。船のすぐ前を横切るクジラにも会えました。・・・そしてなんとガイドさんもIncredible!と叫ぶほど最高の写真が撮れました。しかもiPhoneでです。初マウイで最高ホェールウォッチングでした。また参加したいと思います。

This was a wonderful trip for our honeymoon. Lunch was provided and tasted great. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable of the sea and all the species we encountered. Our guide stopped the boat at one point so we could watch as a large pod of dolphins that surrounded our boat. We were also able to swim with a Monk Seal!

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.

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ ＜朝・昼食付／現地集合＞

It wasn't great for snorkeling. シュノーケリングとしてはイマイチかな

Reviewed by: 上海蟹

I participated on March 9th. The day before, I went whale watching from Lahaina, and we were able to see whales on the way to the snorkeling point. The captain slows down the boat when he spots a whale, which makes everyone very happy.

On the day of the event, there were about 40 participants, and among them, only five were Japanese, including us. Our guide, Takako (who shares the same name as my wife), took great care of us.

As for snorkeling, the visibility and the number/types of fish were somewhat lacking... But since we could see whales during this season, it was still worthwhile. We also spotted three turtles. If you're just looking for turtles, the rocky area behind the power plant at Kahului Harbor is a sea turtle point. There are about 20 floating around. However, unlike Laniakea in Oahu, there are no sandy beaches here, so you won't see them basking on the shore.

３/９に参加しました。前日はラハイナからのホエールウォッチングに行ったのですが、シュノーケリングポイントへの道中クジラを見ることができます。
キャプテンもクジラを見つけるとボートのスピードを落としてくれるのでみんな大喜び。
当日は４０人ほどの参加者で日本人は我々含め５名、ガイドのタカコさん（女房と同名）がいろいろ世話を焼いてくれます。
純然にシュノーケルとしては透明度・魚の数/種類などイマイチの感が・・・
でもこの時期はクジラを見ることが出来るので良しでしょう。
カメもチラチラっと３匹見ることが出来ました。
カメだけでしたら、カフルイ港の発電所裏岩場がシータートルポイントです。
２０匹位浮かんでます。ただオアフのラニアケアと違って砂浜ではないので甲羅干しは見ることが出来ませんが。

Humpback whales are swimming around. ザトウクジラがうようよ

Reviewed by: 上海蟹

I participated on March 8th. This was my third time joining. This time, there were about 20 Japanese participants along with us. Of course, there was also a Japanese guide on board. To put it simply, there were a lot of us.

The previous times I went were at the end of March, but this time was the best. We were able to see breaching multiple times, and the sound of the tail slapping the water was amazing.

I had a hard time getting good photos; the shutter opportunities were... I think the best approach is to use the continuous shooting mode on my compact camera to snap a bunch of photos and then crop them later.

According to the guide, the peak is around Valentine's Day, so I plan to go in February next year.

３月８日に参加しました。３度目の参加です。

Ron was out tour leader. Excellent commentary as we drove from 3 am to 10 am. It was rainy and foggy as we drove up to the volcano in the dark but Ron kept up the banter of telling us information while driving carefully and well. Driving excellent! That was a plus for me. Our group of 22 got acquainted over the trip. Great site to see sunrise at 10,000 feet! It was cold but I wore layers with warm polar fleece liner under my jacket, polar fleece hat and warm gloves and I was comfortable. I felt badly for those who came wrapped in blankets. Excellent staff at the National Park. Nan was especially helpful and informative. As we were driven down the hill, we could see the sites (and the curves) we'd missed due to darkness on the way up. The tour ended with a nice breakfast at a Golf Club. Memorable excursion! Thank you Ron and my fellow participants!

It was my first time seeing a whale up close.

So much so, we never really knew where to look. It was, by far, one of the best activities we partook in while in Hawaii.

The boat was late coming into the dock mainly because a cruise ship had shuttles in the dock space for our ship. We didn't board the boat until at least 15-20 minutes after it was supposed to have left. I felt the harbor was overly accomadating to the cruise ship.

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＞

Third time's the charm! 三度目の正直！

Reviewed by: スカイツリー区民

This was my third participation in two consecutive years. I joined last March and, due to bad weather, I only paid for the lunch box to try again, and this time is my third.

Last time, the sunset was very beautiful, but there were few stars because it was close to a full moon. This time, although I couldn't see the sunset due to bad weather, the starry sky was magnificent near the new moon! I was moved by how many stars there are.

While sitting outside, Mr. Yamauchi explains the stars and shares various stories, but he tends to speak quickly during the star explanations, which is quite disappointing for participants who are not familiar with stars. Since the stars are so beautifully visible, I think it would be a better experience if we could listen to the star stories more slowly and remember them to take home.

二年連続、三度目の参加でした。
昨年の３月に参加し、悪天候のため滞在中にお弁当代のみで再挑戦、そして今回が三度目。
前回はサンセットがとても美しく見えましたが満月近くで星の数が少なく、今回は悪天候でサンセットは見られなかったものの、新月近くで満天の星空！
星ってこんなにあるんだなぁ…と感動しました。

屋外でイスに座って山内さんが星の説明や色々なお話しを聞かせてくれますが、星の説明の時に早口になってしまうのは星に詳しくない参加者にはとても残念です。
せっかく綺麗に星が見えているので、星のお話をもっとゆっくり聞いて覚えて帰れたら、よりよい体験になると思います。

Not just the stars, but other fun too!☆ 星だけじゃない楽しみも☆

Reviewed by: YHY

This was my first time in Hawaii.
I only participated in this optional tour.
The sunset went by in an instant, but the 360° view of the horizon during sunset was breathtaking!
The starry sky in Maui was filled with so many stars, so close that it was dazzlingly beautiful.
However, what made this tour great was not just the sunset and the starry sky.
It was the guidance of our friendly guide and the drive to the summit of Haleakalā!
I learned a lot about Maui, and the guide helped me when I was struggling with English at the hotel.
Honestly, without this person, my enjoyment of Maui might have been halved (laughs).
And the drive to the summit, which I never even thought about... was so much fun!
We drove above the clouds! I never imagined that (laughs).
The wonderful scenery and the guide's stories made for an enjoyable drive!

However, one thing I thought I should be careful about next time is to take it easy on the day I arrive in Hawaii and rest my body.
I couldn't sleep much on the flight there and was sleep-deprived.
If you want to enjoy Hawaii 100%, I think it's best to have a relaxed schedule on the first day.
Mahalo!

はじめてのハワイでした。
オプショナルツアーは、こちらだけ利用させていただきました。
サンセットはあっという間でしたが、360°ほぼ地平線のサンセットは、圧巻でした！
マウイの星空も、すごくたくさんで、すごく近くて、目がおかしくなるほどの美しいキラメキでした。
ですが、このツアーの良かったところは、サンセットや星空だけでありません。
それは、親切なガイドさんの案内や、ハレアカラ山頂までのドライブです！
マウイのことを、いろいろ教えていただきましたし、ホテルでも英語がわからなくて困っているところを助けていただきました。
ほんとうに、この方がいなければ、マウイの楽しさは半減していたかもしれません（笑）
そして、考えてもいなかった、山頂までのドライブ。。。楽しすぎでした☆
車で、雲の上にいくのですから！そんなこと、思ってもいませんでした（笑）
素晴らしい景色と、ガイドさんのお話で、楽しいドライブになりました！

ただ、次回は気をつけようと思ったのが、
ハワイに着いた日は一日ゆっくりして、体を休めることです。
行きの飛行機では、あまり寝ることができず、寝不足でした。
ハワイを100％楽しむなら、一日目はゆとりのあるスケジュールがいいと思います。

Whale watching 鯨ウォッチング

Reviewed by: Shoko

A late lunch at Buzz's Wharf restaurant located at Maalaea Harbor. I parked my car behind the restaurant (free). The shrimp fry sandwich was delicious. Since our boarding was delayed, both the captain and the whale expert were very generous, and we thoroughly enjoyed the watching experience. The whales approached the boat that had its engine off, which was quite exciting! The captain remembered my first name and was very pleasant. The Trilogy boat is smaller, so it was much better than the boat I rode on before. On larger boats, it can be hard to see because of the crowd. Since the sun is strong, a hat and sunscreen are essential. Inside the boat, you take off your shoes, so I recommend wearing socks that are easy to remove or sandals without a sole. On the way back, I bought a whale T-shirt at the shop inside the Ocean Center. I definitely want to come back next year!

集合場所のMaalaeaハーバーにあるBuzz's wharf レストランでちょっと遅いランチ。車はレストランの裏に停めました(無料) 。エビフライサンドイッチ美味しかったです。乗船が予定の時間より遅れたので、船長も鯨の専門家のお兄さんも大サービスでウォッチングを堪能しました。鯨もエンジンを停めた船に近づいて来て結構エキサイトしました！船長はファーストネームを憶えてくれていて、とても感じの良い対応でした。トリロジーの船は小さめなので、以前乗った船より、ずっと良かったです。大きな船は人が邪魔で良く見えない事もあります。日差しが強いので、帽子と日焼け止めは必携です。船内は靴を脱いで裸足になるので、すぐに脱げる靴下を履くか、素足にサンダルが良いと思います。帰りにはオーシャンセンター内のショップで鯨のTシャツを買いました。来年も絶対来たいです！！

Reviewed by: うみがめ

Since it was close to the hotel, I chose the tour departing from Kaanapali, but on the day of the tour, due to strong winds, I confirmed whether the tour would be canceled and found out it had been changed to depart from Lahaina. On the boat, I sat in the empty front seats without thinking, and ended up getting splashed by big waves several times. Looking back, it seems the English-speaking guide had warned us about that... On the boat, the staff distributed juice and water, and the guide continuously explained about the whales (of course, in English). When the whales actually appeared, everyone got excited and it was a lot of fun. I think it's highly recommended to go to Maui during this season.

ホテルから近いのでカアナパリ発にしたのですが、当日強風だったためツアーが中止にならないかを確認したら、ラハイナ発へ変更となっていました。船では、何も考えずに空いている先頭の席に座ったところ、何度か大波をかぶってしまう羽目に。考えてみれば、英語のガイドさんが注意していたような。。。船では、スタッフがジュースやお水を配ってくれて、ガイドさんがずっとクジラの解説をしてくれます（当然英語ですが）。実際クジラが現れると、みんなであっちだこっちだと大騒ぎとなり、とっても楽しかったです。この時期マウイに行くならおすすめだと思います。
