Fortunately, I was able to encounter a whale. However, I had my video camera ready the whole time but couldn't capture any footage. It's difficult to film with a camera or video. You can enjoy a pleasant cruise while looking at Waikiki from the sea with the beautiful blue ocean. The boat does sway a bit. There were smaller boats around, but for those who are prone to seasickness, a larger boat might be a better option.
幸運にも、クジラに遭遇できました。
ただし、ビデオカメラでずっと構えていましたが映像におさめることはできませんでした。カメラやビデオで撮影するのは難しいですね。ワイキキを青い海とともに洋上から眺めるながら気持ちのよいクルーズを楽しめます。
船はやや揺れます。小型船も周囲に来ていましたが、船酔いの心配がある人は大型船の方がいいのかもしれません。

On March 15th, 2024, I went to PCC and participated in the Gateway Buffet package. This experience included admission to the park, buffet, and show. Each village was unique, and educational. The canoe ride was my favorite part of the park, a must do!
The buffet dinner was INCREDIBLE, they had everything you could imagine. From salad, sides, pork, chicken, beef, seafood, and dessert. The presentation of the food, and dinning hall felt like something out of a movie! They really set the scene for local cuisine.
'HA: Breath of Life,' show was spectacular a must see! The dancers were truly amazing! I would definitely go see it again and again. Everything about PCC was so professional, engaging, fun, and educational. There is something for the whole family.
I would recommend PCC to anyone who enjoys learning about different cultures, and has a full day to spend away from Waikiki.
thank you for your feedback!

The evening started with a welcome Hawaiian dance, and the tables were decorated with rose flowers, setting the stage for a wonderful dinner to come. As we began, live piano music played swing jazz in the background. We had booked this dinner cruise to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. The ship's dedicated photographer created memorable photos for us, and before we left, we received them in an album. It was truly a memorable experience. The food was delicious, and we were able to enjoy a lovely time. Thank you very much.
ウエルカムハワイアンダンスから始まり、席もバラの花が飾ってあり、これからの素晴らしいディナーを予測できる演出でした。ピアノの生演奏でスイングジャズが流れる中、スタートでした。私たちは、結婚50周年の記念にと申し込んだディナークルーズでした。船の専属のカメラマンが、2人の記念に残るような写真を作成してくれ、退出する前には、アルバムにしていただきました。とても記念になりました。食事もおいしく、素敵な時間を過ごすことができました。ありがとうございました。

I made a reservation for Friday to catch the fireworks launched from Waikiki Beach every Friday. The fireworks viewed from the cruise ship were amazing. The shows and singing on board were also fantastic.
However, with that many people, the restrooms felt insufficient. It seemed like there was always a line for the women's restroom...
I highly recommend making a reservation for Friday!!
毎週金曜日にワイキキビーチから打ち上げされる、花火を狙って、金曜日に予約しました。
クルーズ船から見る花火は最高でした。
船内でのショーや歌も最高でした。
ただあの人数では、トイレが少なく感じました。

The pickup time was accurate, and the stickers on the chest with the numbers 1 and 2 indicate the bus numbers, making it easy to understand. There are explanations in Japanese on the bus. For the onboard explanations, using a smartphone translation app works well. On the way there, I couldn't see any whales, so I thought, "I'm glad I chose this tour because it's enjoyable even if it's just a cruise," but on the way back, I was thrilled to see whales multiple times! I highly recommend this tour for an extraordinary experience! It can be cold if it's windy, so it's a good idea to bring a jacket. I definitely want my acquaintances going to Hawaii to participate!
ピックアップの時間も正確で、胸に貼るシールに1や2とバスの番号がついているので、わかりやすいです。

行きはクジラが会えなかったので、「クルーズと考えても気持ちが良いから、このツァーにしてよかった」とおもっていましたが、帰りには何度もクジラに会えたので感激しました!

I went without much expectation because I had read reviews saying they couldn't see anything, but I was able to see whales spouting and diving about 5 or 6 times! Their tails were huge, and it was truly moving! I tend to get motion sickness easily, but I didn't feel sick at all without taking any medication. However, since the wind can be strong, it's better to bring a jacket. Inside the boat, you go barefoot, and some people spill drinks due to the wind, so wearing something that can get wet is recommended! Also, the shuttle bus for pick-up only stops on the street and doesn't come to call you. Since there's no company name written on it, it doesn't stand out, and it might depend on the driver, but they don't call out names either, so I think it's best to check when a larger van stops. Additionally, those with a pick-up plan arrive in front of the boat 30 minutes early, so you might have some time to kill. (There's an ice cream shop nearby, so you can pass the time there!)
見れなかったという口コミもあったのであまり期待しないで行きましたが、5,6回くらい潮を吹いて潜っていくクジラを見ることができました!
尾鰭だけですがとっても大きくて感動しました!
自分は乗り物酔いしやすいですが、酔い止めなしでも全く酔いませんでした。
ただ風が強いので上着は持って行ったほうがいいです。
船内は裸足ですし、風でドリンクをこぼしたりする方もいるので濡れてもいい格好がおすすめです!
あと、送迎のシャトルバスは通りに止まるだけで呼びにきてはくれません。
会社名が書いてあるわけでもないので目立ちませんし、ドライバーさんによるかもですが名前を呼ばれたりもしないので大きめのバンが止まったら確認しに行くのが良いと思います。
あと送迎付きのプランの方は30分前に船の前に着くので、少々暇です。
(近くにアイス屋さんがあるので時間は潰せると思います!)

We participated as a family of four. The dinner is served buffet-style, allowing you to enjoy your meal while taking in the beautiful scenery. There are about ten different types of dishes, and some include coconut milk, so those who are not fond of it might have limited options. At the end of the tour, you can watch a show featuring hula dancing and other performances. The quality seems to vary, but it looked like the area next door (the more expensive course?) was really lively with a haka performance. To wrap things up, all the guests stood up and danced to the YMCA. My parents, who are approaching their sixties, were shy but had a great time dancing, which made for a wonderful memory (laughs).
家族4人で参加しました。ディナーはビュッフェ形式で美しい景色を見ながらご飯を食べることができます。種類は10種類くらいで、ココナッツミルクとかが使われている料理もあるので苦手な人は食べられるものが限られるかもしれません。ツアーの最後にはフラダンスなどのショーが見れます。クオリティはピンキリな印象ですが、隣のエリア(高いコース?)はハカみたいなのもやっていたようですごく盛り上がってました。最後の締めはゲスト全員が立ってYMCAを踊りました。還暦手前の両親が恥ずかしそうにしながら楽しく踊っていたので、それもまたいい思い出です(笑)

Thanks to the other passengers on board who kept pointing out, "It's over there!" I was able to see it several times. The announcements made by the captain when something is spotted are, of course, only in English, so those who don't understand English will have to rely on the reactions of the surrounding passengers. I imagined it would be as luxurious as a show like "Itte Q," but it was surprisingly underwhelming.
一緒に乗船しているお客さんが見つける度にあっちにいるよ!と声をかけてくれたおかげで何度か見ることができました。船長が見つけた時にかけるアナウンスは当たり前に英語のみなので、英語がわからない人は周りのお客さんの反応を頼りにすることになります。イッテQのような豪華な感じを想像していましたが、案外しょぼかったです。

There is a pickup service from the center of Waikiki, and it takes about 30 minutes to board. Many foreigners participated, and the explanations after departure were primarily in English, but it wasn't a problem at all. About 20 to 30 minutes after departure, we were able to see whales around the area with Diamond Head in front of us. They were small, but we could see them spouting water multiple times and jumping, making the time fly by.
Since it’s a large boat, I think you don’t have to worry too much about it rocking, but it was cold inside the boat, so I recommend bringing a jacket!
ワイキキの中心部からの送迎ありで30分ほどで乗船。外国の方も多く参加されており、出発後の説明などは基本英語でしたが、困ることはなかったです。出発後20分から30分ほどでダイアモンドヘッドを正面に見渡すあたりでクジラを見ることができました。小さめでしたが、何度も潮を吹く様子やジャンプする姿など見ることができ、あっという間の時間でした。
大きな船なので揺れなどはそこまで心配しなくて良いかと思いますが、船内は寒かったので上着を持っていかれる事をお勧めします!

There were eight participants, including us (two people). The others were foreigners. The crew consisted of two young Western men. During the cruise, the crew provided explanations, but only in English. I read in reviews that there were hammocks on the boat where you could lie down, but we couldn't use them due to a lack of explanation. What a shame! On the day of the cruise, there was wind, and we moved without using the engine. Because of that, it was very quiet and nice. Just before getting off the boat, the crew mentioned to give tips, and everyone put them in a container. It might be worth trying at least once.

The upper deck was great for taking pictures. We started off with a charcuterie board that had tasty cheeses and fruit. The second course included lobster over a beet salad with a nice puree. My only reservation was the meat which was overcooked in my opinion, but to be fair, I'm sure many people prefer a medium-well filet. Taking pictures in between courses was a huge plus and didn't make us feel confined to the table. Overall, I would recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a good time.

I participated in a five-star dinner cruise this time. Perhaps because it was a weekday (excluding Friday), the exclusive fifth-floor area was quite empty, but the interior of the ship was very luxurious, and having fewer people allowed for a more relaxed experience. The weather was nice, and the views of Diamond Head and the sunset from the ship were beautiful. Fortunately, the crew spotted a whale, which became a wonderful memory. With the five-star experience, there is a private deck, so it might be great for those who want to take photos leisurely from the ship.
I felt that the number of courses was a bit on the lower side, but the portions were generous and the taste was delicious, so I was very satisfied. The cocktails I ordered were all tasty and visually appealing as well. The staff were friendly, making it a very memorable trip.
今回5スターでディナークルーズに参加させて頂きました。平日だった為か(金曜を除く)4Fの5スター専用フロアはかなり空いていましたが、船内はとても豪華な作りで人が少なかった分かなりゆったりと過ごすことが出来ました。天候もよく、船内から見るダイヤモンドヘッドやサンセットはとても綺麗でした。運よくクジラを船員さんが見つけてくれて見れたのもとても良い思い出となりました。5スターだと専用デッキがあるので、船上から写真をゆったり撮りたい方には良いかもしれません。
コース料理の品数は少なめに感じましたが、ボリュームがあって味も美味しかったのでとても満足できました。また注文したカクテルもどれも美味しく見た目も良かったです。

This was my fifth sunset dinner cruise on the Star of Honolulu, and no matter how many times I go, I always want to take it when I visit Honolulu. This time, I went with my grandchild, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time.
We were picked up before the scheduled time, which allowed us to smoothly get to the port and board the ship early, so we were able to sit at a very nice window-side seat.
Onboard, we first enjoyed a buffet of fruits and cheese. After that, we savored the course lobster and beef steak while watching the show. In between, we went out on the deck to enjoy the sunset and the views of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach, taking plenty of photos.
The show continued right up until just before disembarking, and we had a wonderful time. The singer was very talented, and I was captivated by their performance.

The captain did delay our return 15 minutes to see the whale that we did see which was very nice!

Check-in is easy to find next to the anchored Star Honolulu. A large ship welcomes you with the captain as you board. After boarding, everyone waits in seats on the first floor and listens to an explanation from a whale expert for about 15 minutes after departure. If you are seated before departure, you can purchase drinks, snacks, and bagels for a fee. There are important explanations about the size of the whales and how to identify their location by relating it to the positions of the clock hands. Once the explanation is finished, everyone moves to their preferred floor. Whales can be seen very well from any deck. I was able to see the whales' spouts and tails up close, and most importantly, the captain takes the time to show the whales to the children when they are spotted. Thanks to this, we were able to see the whales multiple times, and the kids were very satisfied. It became a wonderful memory.
チェックインは停船しているスターホノルル号の隣でわかりやすい場所でできます。大きな船にキャプテンが出迎えてくれて乗り込みます。乗船後全員一階の席で待機し、出航後15分くらいはくじら専門家の方の説明を聞きます。出航前から着席すると、ドリンクやスナック、ベーグル等有料購入できます。鯨の大きさなどの説明や、鯨がいる場所を時計の針に見立てて何時方向に見えると乗客に伝えること等の重要な説明があります。説明が終わると一斉に好きなfloorへ移動します。どの階でもとても良く鯨が見えました。思っていたよりも近くで鯨の潮吹きや尻尾をはっきり見ることができ、何よりも、しっかり子供も見れるように鯨を発見するとキャプテンは時間をかけて見せてくれます。そのおかげで何度も鯨を見る事ができて子供も大満足でした。とても良い思い出になりました。

The buffet was absolutely the best I've ever been to! So much food to choose from. Plus there was live entertainment. We also stayed for the breath of life show, which was spectacular. Goosebumps for sure.
Thank you for your feedback!

The dance and singing were of high quality and enjoyable. You can also enjoy meals and entertainment before the show. The impersonators of Elvis and Michael were so dedicated to their roles that it didn't feel cheap at all. I recommend going at least once.
ダンスも歌もクオリティが高く楽しめました。ショウの前の食事やエンターテイメントも楽しめます。エルビスとマイケルのそっくりさんもなりきり方が徹底しているので安っぽさありませんでした。一度は行ってみることをお勧めします。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the performances of Elvis, Michael, and the Hawaiian show. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.

The food was just average. Since it's a buffet, you can eat as much as you want. A person came around playing the ukulele at each table, but it seemed like they were looking for tips, so feel free to decline if you don't want to give one. Dining outdoors had its challenges due to the season and weather, and it was a bit cold. We got VIP seats for the show, but I think you can enjoy it from the regular seats as well. The impersonations of Elvis and Michael Jackson seemed to be of high quality.
食事の味はまぁ普通です。ビュッフェなので満足するまで食べられます。
各席を回ってウクレレを弾いてくれる方が回って来ましたがチップ狙いのようなので不要であれば断ってください。
野外での食事で季節、天候の問題もあり多少寒かったです。
ショーはVIP席をとりましたが、通常の席でも楽しめると思います。
エルビスやマイケル・ジャクソンのモノマネですがレベルは高いようです。

A disclaimer agreement is sent via email in English beforehand, so all participants need to check it and return it. I used Google Lens to roughly translate it, checked it, and replied, but since it was a boat activity, it was a long document.
Although it was more expensive than other tours, it was nice that we could embark without moving. However, the reception location was hard to find, and the meeting place was also unclear. Although it was supposed to start at 1 PM, we were told it would be from 1 to 8 PM on the day, which made it feel like we were starting off late. (The port call was around 3:30 PM.)
Unfortunately, on the day I participated, we didn’t see any whales or dolphins, just a turtle floating by, and it turned out to be more of a cruise around Diamond and other scenic spots. It seemed like they really tried hard to find something since they are in the business. In such cases, you will receive a reboarding ticket when you disembark. If you wish, you can also make a reservation for the next day on your way back.
I couldn’t ask in detail since I’m not fluent in English, but I was told that the ticket can be used the following year or anytime after. Just let them know over the phone that you have the reboarding ticket to make a reservation. (I believe they also mentioned that you could transfer to other sunset cruises. It seems that if it’s a more expensive tour, there might be a difference in cost.)
The reboarding ticket has the number of participants written on it, and I was told that it cannot be split into individual tickets for two people to use separately. So, it might be better not to set the reboarding for the last day of your trip!
The explanation on the boat right after boarding was, of course, in native-speed English, and the safety instructions were quite long. Since I’m not fluent in English, I didn’t understand it well, which made me a bit cautious about safety.
As for moving around the boat, there are open spaces at the front and back without a roof, seating inside, and some tables. There is a restroom in the starboard lower deck. There’s also a bar counter inside the boat. Free chips and snacks are available on the tables inside. If you sit outside, the staff will come to take your drink orders. Free soft drinks include pineapple, guava, Sprite, Coca-Cola, and water. You can have as many as you want for free, but tips are appreciated.
In the end, we didn’t see any whales, but since you can board again if you don’t see any, it might be nice for those with time to enjoy multiple cruises. By the way, when I asked if there were whales yesterday, they said there were. Personally, I think the afternoon departure, unlike other tours, might increase the chances of seeing them.
The boat rocked quite a bit. It’s dangerous to move around while it’s moving, so it’s best to hold onto the handrails and go slowly. Those who are sensitive might get seasick. The sun was shining brightly, so be careful of sunburn. Since it rocked a lot and I didn’t move around, I couldn’t take many pictures of the boat.
I hope this information is helpful.
(事前に免責事項の同意書が英語のメールで送られてくるので、参加人全員がチェックを入れて戻す必要がありました。グーグルレンズ利用でざっと訳してチェックを入れて返信しましたが、船のアクティビティなので、長い文章でした)
他のツアーより割高だが、移動せずに出航できてよかった。ただし、受付の場所がわかりにくく、集合場所もよくわからず、13時からであるが当日で13-20と言われ、はいはい遅れるのね・・・というスタートでした。(寄港は15:30くらい)
また、仕方ないですが、参加した日は鯨はみられませんでして、イルカもみられず、ちらっと亀が浮いているだけで、ダイヤモンドやその他景色をクルージングしたような形になりました。向こうも商売なので、かなり粘って探してくれたように感じました。
そういう場合は、降りる際に、再乗船できるチケットをいただけます。希望すれば帰りにそのまま翌日の予約もできます。
英語が堪能でないので詳しくは聞けませんでしたが、翌年でもそのあとでも、ずっと使えるよ。電話でその再乗船券を持っていることを伝えて予約してね。とのことでした。(他のサンセットクルーズなどにも振り替えができると説明していたと思われます。より高いツアーであれば差額が必要っぽい)
再乗船のための券が、人数がかかれているものであり、二人別々に使うように一名ずつのチケットに分割することはできないと言われましたので、再利用はその旅行内にできるように、最終日に設定しない方がいいのかもしれません!
乗船した後すぐの船の上での説明は、当然ネイティブスピードの英語での注意事項説明などが、結構長くありまして、英語が堪能でないのでよくわかっておりませんでしたので、安全上ちょっと怪しげだったので気をつけました。
船上の動き方としては、屋根がない前と後ろのスペースと、船内に座れるところ、一部テーブルがあり、船内右舷地下にトイレがあります。船内にバーカウンターもあります。船内のテーブルには無料のチップスなどが置いてあります。外に座っていると、係の方がドリンクのオーダーを取りに来てくれます。無料のソフトドリンクは、パイナップル、グアバ、スプライト、コカコーラ、水などがあります。何杯でも無料ですがチップをちょうだいね。のシステムのようでした。
結果、鯨はみられませんでしたが、みられないとまた船に乗れるので、時間がある方にとっては、何度もクルージングできていいかもしれません。ちなみに昨日は鯨はいたか?と聞いてみたら、いたよー。ということでした。個人的には他のツアーと違っての午後出発なので、時間帯的にみられる可能性が高い低いあるかもなと思ったりしています。
船、結構揺れました。動いている途中の移動は危険なので手すり捕まってゆっくりがよさそうです。弱い人は酔うかもです。日光さんさんとしていて、日焼け危険です。揺れが大きくて移動しなかったので、船の写真はあまりとれませんでした。
以上、参考になれば。

This combo offers an immersive and entertaining experience that captures the spirit of Hawaiian culture. The evening begins with a warm welcome and traditional lei greeting, setting the tone for an authentic Hawaiian experience.
The dinner itself features a delicious buffet spread showcasing a variety of local dishes, including traditional Hawaiian favorites such as kalua pig, lomi lomi salmon, and poi. The food is fresh, flavorful, and provides a wonderful introduction to Hawaiian cuisine.
The performance showcases the rich cultural heritage of Hawaii and other Pacific Islands, with vibrant costumes, energetic dances, and soulful music that transport audiences to another time and place. One of the highlights of the evening is the fire knife dance, a mesmerizing display of skill and daring that never fails to impress. Watching the performers twirl, spin, and juggle flaming knives against the backdrop of the night sky is truly awe-inspiring and adds an exhilarating finale to the show.

On the day we arrived in Hawaii, we checked into the hotel at 3 PM and had a tour pickup at 4:30 PM. We were able to enjoy ourselves without getting too tired, had meals, and watched a show. There was no jet lag either. On the way back, we were also taken back to the hotel, which was convenient. The salad was a bit bitter, which was a problem... But the sunset was beautiful, and we even got to see whales swimming, which felt like a bonus.
ハワイの到着日、15時ホテルチェックイン、16時半ツアーのお迎えでした。
体力も消耗せず、ご飯も食べれて、ショーも見れて楽しく過ごせました。時差ボケも無かったです。
帰りも、ホテルまで送っていただけて、楽でした。
サラダが、苦くて困りましたが…
夕日もきれいで、おまけに、クジラが泳いでいるのも、見えて得した気分でした。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise on the day you arrived in Hawaii. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful sunset in Hawaii along with whale watching. We look forward to welcoming you again.
