while I enjoyed the trip, we were unable to go out to the memorial by boat because of the wind. That was the main reason for the tour, so I feel that my once in a lifetime vacation was incomplete.
Be warned that the Military can shut down the shuttles as they see fit.

The ship we boarded wasn't very large and was quite maneuverable, which I thought was very good. However, as I expected, we could only see the whales from a distance, which was a bit disappointing.
乗船した船はあまり大きくなく小回りも利きましたので非常に良かったと思います。しかし、予想はしてましたが、遠くでしかクジラが見えす、少し残念でした。

While there weren't any instances of whales breaching, I was able to recognize whales three times, which was enjoyable. Additionally, shortly after departing, a pod of dolphins swam alongside us, adding to the excitement. It seems to be a time when there are many young whales with their mothers.
さすがにクジラが飛び上がるところはありませんが、クジラだと認識できる機会が3回もあり、楽しめました。
また、出港早々にイルカの群れが並走してくれて盛り上げてくれました。
子供のクジラを連れている時期が頻度が高そうです。

Our first luau was enjoyable for all seven family members!
Before participating, I thought it might be too expensive considering the cost performance, but overall, I was satisfied with the experience.
This is just my personal opinion, but I’ll provide some detailed information for future participants since there isn’t much written about it.
We drove to the Hilton venue with a rental car, and both self-parking and valet parking are available. I arrived late at 5:15 PM, so I opted for valet parking to save time. I was prepared to pay a relatively high parking fee even with validation (discount or free parking). However, when I picked up my car after the event, valet parking was free! Just remember to tip the valet. I recommend valet parking for those using rental cars. When you drop off your car, they will ask if you are a guest or a visitor, so just say "Visitor, luau show," and you’ll be fine even if your English isn’t great! Don’t forget to get the validation sticker from the staff after the show. You can shop in the Hilton without worrying about parking fees after the show.
Since I arrived late, there was no waiting time to enter! If you’re late, you’ll go directly to the venue, so first-timers who aren’t hotel guests might get lost. You need to take the escalator from the "Rainbow Bazaar," a shopping area next to the self-parking building, to reach the venue, so be careful if you’re running late.
I was seated at a table at the far end, but the tables are arranged in a U-shape around the stage, so even from the standard seats, the view was impressive. Some might feel that their seats are "a bit far," but unless it’s a special occasion, I don’t think premium seats are necessary. The order for getting food is called starting from the premium seats, but since there were few people in the premium seats and there are two food serving areas, I only waited about five minutes. You might wait 20 to 30 minutes before being called, but since it’s a trip, I think chatting and having fun will make the time fly by. Once you get your food, you won’t have to wait in long lines for refills.
初ルアウ、家族7人みんな楽しめました!
参加前はコストパフォーマンスを考えると高くて余り期待できないかなと思いましたが総合的に結果満足です。
あくまで個人的な意見ですが、次の参加者の参考の為にあまり書込みが無い内容を多めに、少しだけ細かく記載します。
会場のヒルトンへはレンタカーで行きましたが、パーキングはセルフパーキングとバレーパーキングが利用できます。
私は17時15分の開場に遅刻した為、バレーパーキングで車を預け時間短縮の最後の悪あがき(笑)
バレーパーキングだからヴァリデーション(駐車料金割引もしくは無料)を受けても、ある程度高い駐車料金を払う覚悟をしました。
しかし、終了後に車を引き取るとバレーパーキングでも無料でした!! でも、チップは忘れずに渡しましょう。
レンタカーで行かれる方はバレーパーキングをお奨めします。
車を預ける際に宿泊ゲストかビジターか聞かれますので「ビジター、ルアウショー」と言えば英語が苦手でも大丈夫!!
ショーの終了後に会場スタッフからヴァリデーションのシールを忘れずに貰ってください。
ショーの終了後もヒルトン内で駐車料金を気にする事無く買い物も出来ちゃいます。
会場入りは遅刻しているので当然待ち時間なし(笑)
遅刻すると直接会場まで行く為、ホテル宿泊者意外で初めての方は必ず迷います(笑)
セルフパーキングビルの横にある「レインボーバザール」というショッピング街の中からエスカレーターで会場まであがって行きますので集合時間に遅刻した方は注意してください。
案内された席は一番端のテーブルでしたが、テーブルはステージをコの字に囲むようになってるのでスタンダード席でも迫力満点で観賞できました。
席によっては「ちょっと遠い」と感じる人もいると思いますが、特別な場合で無い限りプレミアムシートの必要性は無いと思います。
料理を取りに行く順番もプレミアムシートから案内されますが、プレミアムシートの参加人数が少なかった事と、料理の配膳箇所が2箇所ある事で、5分程度の待ち時間で済みました。
案内されるまでに20~30分待つこともあると思いますが、せっかくの旅行ですので楽しくおしゃべりをしていれば苦になる時間ではないと思いますよ。
一度料理を取ってしまえばお替りの際に長い列に並ぶ事はありません。

I had been wanting to go to Hawaii for a long time, so I applied without hesitation. Since the plan was dependent on the weather, I was aware of the risks, but luckily it was sunny and the weather was very pleasant. However, the wind was strong, and my hairstyle was a mess. As a result, to reach the water level up to my knees, I had to walk while getting soaked up to my waist, so a swimsuit is definitely a must. My friend and I enjoyed walking in our pants, completely drenched, up to the knee-deep water. Although we couldn't see the "land," it was a unique experience that brought me great satisfaction.
ハワイに行ったら絶対に行きたいと思い迷わず申込みをしました。天気に左右されるプランの為、
リスク承知でしたが・・・運良く晴れてとても気持ちの良い天気でした~ただ風が強くヘアスタイルは散々。
結果、膝下の水位に行くまでに腰まで浸かって歩く為やはり
水着は必須ですね☆私と友達は、パンツのままずぶ濡れで膝下の水位まで歩き堪能しました。
「陸」は見えず残念ではありますがここならではの体験でしたので非常に自己満足です。

It was a whale watching experience blessed by good weather, but I only saw a baby whale spouting in the distance at first, and after that, I couldn't see anything else. Well, it's a living creature, so there's nothing we can do about it.
However, the staff with the Japanese guide were wonderful, and it’s not often you get to enjoy the view of the horizon from the boat, as well as Waikiki and Diamond Head, so I had a great time!
Since it's a trip abroad, it might also be nice to hear local recommendations from the Japanese guide.
天候にも恵まれたホエールウォッチングでしたが、
最初に子どもクジラの潮吹きが遠くに見えたっきり、それ以降は見る事ができませんでした。まぁ、生き物なので仕方ないですね。
しかしながら、日本語ガイドのスタッフの対応も素晴らしく、また船上から水平線を眺めたり、ワイキキ&ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺める事が出来る機械はなかなかないので、十分楽しめました!

I participated in the morning tour on January 3rd. Unfortunately, I didn't see any whales at all. The breakfast included eggs, sausages, and bread, and it was quite substantial for the price.
During the New Year period, the weather in Honolulu was consistently bad with rain coming and going, but thanks to that, I was able to see a big rainbow from the boat.
I have been on the Star of Honolulu dinner cruise several times, and during those times, it makes a U-turn just before Diamond Head. However, this tour goes even further. It was interesting to view Oahu from the sea, as well as the backside of Diamond Head.
But I really wanted to see whales...

残念ながらクジラは全く見ることが出来ませんでした。
朝食は卵やソーセージ、パンなどがあり、お値段の割にはしっかりと取れました。
お正月の期間ホノルルはずっと天候が悪く雨が降ったり止んだりでしたが、お蔭で船から大きな虹を見ることが出来ました。

The weather was perfect, and I had a wonderful time. It felt amazing. I had read in the reviews that I might get wet, so I brought a change of clothes, but perhaps because the waves were calm, I didn't get wet at all. It turned out we were the only Japanese people there, which was actually nice. I couldn't communicate in Japanese at all... The meeting place was completely different from what was written. I was glad I had allowed plenty of time, but if I had been cutting it close... The actual yacht was located near the Sheraton. The cocktails were delicious. Everyone I went with was very satisfied. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to go on this again.

I was worried about the rain until departure, but after we set sail, the rain stopped, and I was able to see the whales I had longed to see (I think it was probably three different whales). The food was just okay. I thought the prices were a bit high, but considering it was a cruise and whale watching, I guess it's understandable. There were other tours available, but it seemed like the Navatek was the one with the highest chance of seeing whales, and I am satisfied.
出港までは雨で心配しましたが、出港後はなんとか雨も止み、念願のくじらを見ることができました(たぶん3頭違うくじらと思います)。食事はまぁ普通。値段も少し高いかなとも思いますが、クルーズかつホエールウォッチングとしてはやむなしかと思います。他のツアーもありましたが、ナバテック号が一番クジラを見られる確率が高そうでしたし、満足しています。

On January 8, my spouse and I participated. We go to Oahu every year, but we rarely visit during this time, so we joined a whale watching tour for the first time, which can only be seen during this season.
After boarding, the captain provided explanations about the direction of the whales in English, but there was immediately a Japanese interpreter, so it wasn't a problem if you didn't understand English.
The meal was served buffet-style with a wide variety of drinks (alcoholic beverages were cash only) and desserts. When a whale appeared, the captain announced it, and the whale would show up in that direction, but it was a fleeting moment, making it challenging to capture. However, we were lucky to see the whale raise its tail about three times up close.
I had used the Star of Honolulu for dinner cruises a couple of times, and it was enjoyable to experience a different view of Waikiki at night. We participated in a course without transportation, but after disembarking, many shops inside Aloha Tower were closed and it was quite deserted. We took a 10-minute walk to explore downtown and Chinatown.

This is an amazing place to spend a day if you are interested in learning more about the history and culture of Polynesia in a enjoyable and entertaining way. I strongly recommend that you spend the extra money and take advantage of the full day Ambassador Package. It is certainly well worth the extra cost! With it you will spend the entire day on a small group tour given by a knowledgeable guide who will take you to all the different villages where you will learn the history and culture of that particular Island from individuals who actually grew up on those Islands. Following a full day of touring the villages, you will eat a large meal. Here, with the Ambassadors Package, you have the choice of eating at the Luau or the Prime Rib/Seafood dinner.

I participated at the end of the year. According to the guide, today’s guests were lucky to have such rare good weather for winter compared to last week, which was cold. Last week was so cold that it felt like a test of endurance, and about half of the people didn’t even go snorkeling.
Indeed, the gradient of the sea was beautiful and amazing. I had researched the site beforehand, so I knew that the sandbar wouldn’t be dry on the day of the tour, but there were some guests who were unaware and complained. The guide mentioned, “There are only about 60 days a year when the land is properly exposed during tour times, so please do your research next time.”
The hamburger was delicious. The guide pointed out where the sea turtles were, but as soon as I shifted my gaze, they seemed to dive and disappear. Even though the weather was nice, the water was still quite cold, and the hot chocolate served after snorkeling was very tasty.
Even with such luck, it seems that to be truly satisfied, it’s better to go in winter when the tides and good weather align perfectly.
年末に参加した。ガイドの話では、寒かった先週に比べて冬には珍しい良い天気で今日のお客さんたちはラッキーだと。先週は寒くて我慢大会のようでシュノーケリングしない人も半数くらいいたと。
確かに、海のグラデーションは綺麗で素晴らしかった。
事前に案内されたサイトで調べていたので、当日サンドバーが干上がっていないことは知っていたが、知らなくて不満を言ってるお客もいて、ガイド曰く「ツアー時間にちゃんと陸が出ているのは年間60日位しかないので、次回はよく調べてきてください」と。
ハンバーガーは美味しかった。ウミガメはガイドがあそこにいるよと教えてくれるのだけど目線を移動すると、もうもぐって消えているみたいな感じであった。天気が良くても水はそれなりに冷たく、シュノーケリングの後にふるまわれたホットチョコレートがとても美味しかった。

I used this service during my honeymoon trip to Hawaii in January 2013. I was able to encounter whales several times. When the whales were visible, the staff would announce it and let us know. Until then, we could enjoy lunch and relax comfortably on the boat.
However, there are a few tips to keep in mind for whale watching:
- Whales tend to surface for only a few seconds to a few tens of seconds before returning to the water.
- Even if the staff informs you and you look in that direction, the whales may already be back underwater and not visible.
- Once you've finished your meal, if you go out on deck and leisurely gaze at the sea, you might spot whales even before the staff does, which seems to be a more efficient way to see them.
The onboard announcements were also in Japanese, which made the experience very enjoyable.
2013年1月に新婚旅行ではじめてハワイに行った際に利用しました。
くじらに何度か遭遇することができました。くじらが見える位置にきた際にはスタッフがアナウンスして教えてくれます。それまでは、ランチを楽しんで船内でゆったりくつろぐことができます。
ただし、くじらを見るためのこつとしては、次のポイントは押させていた方がいいかもしれません。
?くじらは、浮かんできても数秒~数十秒くらいでまた海の中に戻ってしまいます。
?スタッフが教えてくれて、その方角を見に行ってももう海の中にいてみれないこともあります。
?ある程度食事がすんだら、自らデッキにでてのんびり海を眺めていると、スタッフよりも早くくじらを発見できるので、こちらのほうが効率にくじらに会えるように思います。

The variety of food was limited for the price. Since it gets cold at night, I think it would be nice to have warm dishes as well. The show lacked excitement, and some people left midway.
値段のわりに食事の種類が少なかった。夜は寒いので温かい料理もあれば良いと思う、ショーも盛り上がりにかける。途中で帰る人もいた、

- I found it worthwhile to participate, thinking I could experience the feeling of cruising.
- We encountered two whales and were able to see them spouting for a while.
- We frequently spotted dolphins, although they weren't very close.
- The Japanese-speaking guide made frequent announcements, which were easy to understand. Even during times when there were no whales, it was enjoyable to hear explanations about the scenery visible from the boat.
- I participated while carrying a small child in a baby carrier, and it wasn't too bumpy, so there were no issues.
- The restroom was spacious and well-maintained.
- The guide mentioned, "Today the whales are close," but I was surprised, thinking, "Is this really close?!" The visibility was such that I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't been told it was a whale. When pointed out, I could see the spouting between the waves.
- I was interested in the shopping mall around the pier, so I intentionally chose not to have a shuttle. However, many stores were closed, making it a rather lonely mall. I regretted not taking the shuttle plan to return right away, as there was no value in spending time there after the event. Instead, I visited the palace and Chinatown. It took just over ten minutes on foot through the office district to reach the palace. I returned by bus.
- I chose the breakfast plan. The coffee was decent, but the scrambled eggs were so bad that they made me feel sick just thinking about them. Since there were no whales, I went for a refill, but there was hardly anything left. If you want to eat a lot, be sure to take plenty during the initial serving, as there are very few options, so it's best not to have high expectations.
・クルージング気分を味わえると思えば参加する価値がありました。
・鯨は2頭遭遇でき、潮吹きがしばらく見れました。
・いるかはたびたび見かけました。いるかまでの距離はそれほど近くないです。
・日本語担当のガイドさんが、頻繁にアナウンスしてくれて分かりやすかったです。鯨がいない時間帯も、船から見える景色を説明してくれて楽しかったです。
・小さい子供をおんぶ紐で縛って参加しましたが、それほど揺れないし、問題ありませんでした。
・トイレも広くてきれいにしてありました。
・「今日は鯨が近いよ」とガイドさんが言ってましたが「この遠さで近いのか?!」と逆にびっくりしました。鯨だ!と言われなければ気が付かない程度の見え方です。言われてみれば、波の合間に潮吹きが、というレベル。
・船着き場周りのショッピングモールに興味があり、敢えて送迎なしにしました。しかしながら閉店しているお店も多く、とても淋しいモールでした。イベント後に寄る時間を用意する価値は全くなく、送迎プランですぐ帰った方が良かったと後悔しました。そこで宮殿とチャイナタウンへ寄りました。オフィス街と通って徒歩10分強で宮殿に着きました。帰りはバスで帰りました。
・朝食プランを選択しました。コーヒーは普通においしく、スクランブルエッグが思い出しても気持ち悪くなる程、まずかったです。鯨が出ないのでヒマでおかわりに行きましたが、ほとんど残っていませんでした。沢山食べたい方は、最初の盛り付けでたくさんよそってください。種類はとても少ないので期待しない方が良いです。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
While we cannot approach the whales within 100 yards, there are days when the whales come closer to the boat. On days when we encounter active whales, you may even see them jumping. If you have the chance, please come back to look for such whales again.
Aloha Tower Marketplace used to be a bustling place with many shops until a few years ago, but unfortunately, most of the shops are now closed, and as you mentioned, it has become a rather lonely place. I believe that guests like you who extend their visit to Chinatown will have a more enjoyable experience.
Regarding your comments about the meal, I will translate them into English and forward them to the manager in charge to help improve our services in the future.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.
All of us at Star of Honolulu are looking forward to welcoming you again.
この度は私共のクルーズにご参加頂き、誠に有難うございました。
鯨には100ヤード以上近付け無い様になっておりますが、日によっては鯨の方から船に寄って来る事もございます。アクティブな鯨に遭遇出来た日はジャンプをする鯨を見られる時もございます。チャンスがありましたら、またそんな鯨を探しにいらしてください。
アロハタワーマーケットプレイスは数年前までは沢山のお店で賑わった場所でしたが、残念ながら今は殆どのお店は閉まってしまい、お客様のおっしゃる通り寂しい感じのする場所となってしまいました。お客様の様にチャイナタウンまで足を伸ばしていただいた方がお楽しみいただけると思います。
お食事に付きましては頂きましたコメントを英語訳の上担当のマネージャーに転送させて頂き、今後のサービス改善に役立たせて頂きます。
貴重なご意見有難うございました。
皆様のまたのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
