Oahu
Even when we got close to Diamond Head, we couldn't see any whales, and I started to give up a little, but then I spotted a spout in the distance. At that moment, the boat sped towards the whale, and we got close enough to see it!
After that, the boat kept pace without disturbing the whale, allowing us to see it with Diamond Head in the background. It was such an emotional moment!
As the boat started heading back to the harbor, the other passengers returned inside, but while watching the whale, I was able to see a huge leap from quite a distance!
On the way back, we also spotted two groups of whales, so I think it's a good idea to look out for spouts. The pineapple banana bread provided after boarding was also very delicious, and we could enjoy it with tea or coffee inside the boat!
There were also announcements in Japanese explaining about the whales, so it's fine even if you don't understand English. Since they are living creatures, you can't always see them, but even if they are a bit far away, the boat gets close, so I’m glad I participated!
ダイヤモンドヘッドの辺りに来てもなかなかクジラの姿が見えないので、今日は見ることができないかもと少し諦めた時に、すっごく遠くに潮吹きが見えました。その瞬間、船がクジラの方に向かってすごいスピードで進んでいき、クジラが見える所まで近づいてくれました!
その後も、クジラの泳ぎを遮らないように、並走してくれて、ダイヤモンドヘッドをバックにクジラを見る方ができました。とても感動した瞬間でした!
船が港へ戻り出した為、他の乗客は船内に戻って行きましたが、ずっとクジラを見ていると、かなり離れていましたが、クジラの大ジャンプを見ることができました!!
帰り途中にも2グループのクジラを見る方ができたので、潮吹きを探してみると良いと思います。
乗船後に提供された軽食のパイナップルバナナブレッドもとても美味しく、紅茶やコーヒーと一緒に船内で食べることができました!
クジラの説明など日本語でのアナウンスもきちんとありますので、英語がわからなくても大丈夫です。生き物ですので毎回見られるとは限りませんが、多少遠くても船が近づいていってくれるので、参加して良かったと思います!
I went up to the top deck, making sure I could see from either side of the ship. Also, when the ship starts to head back, everyone tends to go back inside, but I think it's better to stay and watch be
最上階に上り、船の左右のどちらからでも見えるようにしていました。また、船が帰り出すと皆んな船内に戻りがちですが、そのまま見ているよと大ジャンプをしていたので見続けた方が良いと思います。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you were able to observe the whales jumping. It's great that you enjoyed the snacks on board and the views of Waikiki. We also appreciate your very positive review. We hope to see you again soon. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.
この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
クジラのジャンプをご観測頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。そして、船内での軽食やワイキキの景色など楽しんで頂き良かったですね。大変ポジティブな口コミも有難う御座います。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
I was able to enjoy many thrilling attractions. The transportation was accompanied by a Japanese attendant, which made me feel at ease.
たくさんの絶叫アトラクションを楽しむことができました。送迎は日本人のアテンドがついていたので、安心できました。
It's recommended to plan your schedule in advance so you can enjoy many attractions within the time limit. The security checks are strict, so it's best to purchase food and drinks on-site, except for
時間内に多くのアトラクションを楽しめるように事前にスケジュールを考えておくのがおすすめです。持ち物検査は厳しいので、お水以外の飲食物は現地で購入するといいと思います。
I was worried that my daughter, who easily gets seasick because it's a large ship, might have a hard time, but despite taking motion sickness medication, she ended up feeling sick. 😭 She couldn't even go out on deck and just sat in a chair, waiting for the return to port. I don't know why the medication didn't work, but it was unfortunate, especially since she was looking forward to it more than anyone. 😒
We were able to see whales a few times, although from a distance. 😊👌
大型船なので船酔いし易い娘でも大丈夫かなと思っていたのですが、酔い止めを飲んで行ったにもかかわらず酔ってしまいました😭
デッキにも出られず椅子に座りきりで、ひたすら帰港を待っていました。
なぜ酔い止めが効かなかったのかわかりませんが、気の毒でした。
娘の方が楽しみにしていたので😒
鯨は遠目ですが、何回か見ることができました😊👌
I think it's better to firmly imprint the sight of the whale in your memory. If you try to capture it on camera or video, you might miss the precious opportunity to witness it.
鯨は目にしっかり焼き付けたほうが良いと思います。
カメラやビデオに撮ろうとすると、せっかくの目撃チャンスを逃してしまうかも❓
Thank you very much for bringing your family on our cruise. We are very sorry to hear that your daughter, who was looking forward to this cruise, was not feeling well, but we are glad that you were able to observe whales. We hope you will visit us again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
この度は私共のクルーズにご家族でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
今回のクルーズを楽しみにされていた娘様のご気分が大変残念でしたが、クジラの観測ができた事を嬉しく思います。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
It was my first time snorkelling, and the experience was fantastic! The equipment was clean, well-maintained, and easy to use. If you're not comfortable swimming in the ocean like me, I highly recommend renting a life vest for extra confidence.
From the start, everything was well-organized. The shuttle bus driver was friendly and informative, sharing insights about Oahu’s geography, and pointing out tourist attractions and great restaurants along the way. He even handed out pictures of ocean creatures we might spot, which made the ride even more exciting!
Overall, a great experience, I’d definitely recommend it!
renting a life vest for extra confidence if you don't swim well in the ocean
I participated in February. At first, I was really wondering if I would be able to see them, but I was able to see four of them! When we went out to sea, they stopped the boat's engine and drove slowly and quietly, which allowed us to see two of them up close. I was moved by their size. They seemed to be playing together, possibly a mother and her child or siblings.
Before heading out to sea, we listened to explanations about safety and the characteristics and ecology of humpback whales inside the boat. I read in reviews that there would be staff who spoke Japanese, but it seemed there weren't any when we participated. I was with a friend who spoke English, so she briefly explained the content to me, but I thought it would be nicer if there were written explanations in various languages available (though I could generally understand without them).
The pineapple cake served as a snack was delicious, and I ended up asking for a second helping!
2月に参加しました。初めは本当に見ることができるのかなあと思っていましたが、4頭、本当に見ることができました! 沖に出ると船のエンジン?を止めてゆっくり静かに運転してくれて、それによってそのうち2頭はすぐ間近で見ることができ、大きさを目の当たりにして感動しました。親子なのか兄弟なのか、2頭で遊んでいるようでした。
出航後沖に出るまでは、船内で、安全についての説明やザトウクジラの特徴や生態についての説明を聞きます。日本語が話せるスタッフがいると口コミに書かれていましたが、私たちが参加した際はいないようでした。英語が話せる友人と一緒だったので、彼女に内容を簡単に教えてもらいましたが、各言語の説明書きなどが置いてあるとより親切かなと思いました。(なくても大体分かりますが)
サービスのパイナップルケーキが美味しくて、おかわりしてしまいました!
The air conditioning inside the ship is effective, but on the deck, the direct sunlight and reflection from the sea are strong, so I think it's good to have something to wear over your clothes and sun
船内は冷房が効いているのと、デッキの上は直射日光と海上からの照り返しが強いので、羽織るものとサングラスがあるといいと思います。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise with your friends. We're glad you were able to see four whales. We're also pleased to hear that you enjoyed the snacks on board. Please do visit us again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.
この度は私共のクルーズにお友達とお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
クジラの観測それも4頭も見れて良かったですね。船内での軽食も楽しんで頂き嬉しく思っております。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
We participated as a family.
The crew members were all kind, and there were Japanese-speaking staff, which eased my worries since I had an elementary school child with me. They seemed to have a lot of fun seeing the sea turtles.
Thank you very much.
家族で参加させていただきました。
クルーの方、皆さん親切で日本語スタッフの方もいて、小学生の子供がいて心配でしたが、海亀見れてとても楽しそうでした。
ありがとうございました。
We went all the way to Diamond Head and anchored for a long time near Waikiki Beach. They said there were whales, but even after anchoring for almost an hour, we couldn't see any. It's said that whale breathing lasts 20 to 40 minutes, so if they were nearby, we should have been able to see them... I felt the same while looking from the hotel at Waikiki Beach. From this point, it seems like you could see them with a telescope from places like the Hyatt & Beach or Sheraton.
ダイアモンドの先まで行き、ワイキキビーチ行きで長く停泊。クジラがいるということでしたが、1時間近く停泊したが見えなかった。
クジラの呼吸は20〜40分と言われているため、近くにいるなら見えるはずだが…。
ワイキキビーチ沖ではホテルから眺めても同じと感じた。 このポイントならHYATT&Beachやシェラトンなどからなら望遠鏡で見えそうです。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise with your spouse. While it was unfortunate that you didn't see any whales on this trip, I am confident that you enjoyed the views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the boat during the morning cruise. Thank you for your feedback, and we look forward to welcoming you again.
この度は私共のクルーズにご夫婦でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
今回のクルーズでクジラが見られなかったのは残念でしたが、朝のクルーズでのワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドの船上からの眺めは楽しめて頂いたかと確信しております。今回のお声を有難うございます。又のお越しをお待ちしております。
The way this show was organized and put together was amazing. We enjoyed every aspect of the show. They made it feel like you were a part of the performance the entire time. The only reason I gave the good rating was because the photographer didn't take enough time arranging our family of 17 so you could see everyone in the photo. Also she quickly snapped the two pictures before we were ready so eyes were closed in both pictures. We also wanted individual family photos and she wouldn't do it for us. She would have made more money by all of us buying a photo package. The food was OK, it was a little cold and the pork was dried out.
Plan extra time to get there from Waikiki. Traffic is terrible.
It included transportation, but since it didn't stop at our hotel, we walked to the hotel across the street. The large bus arrived on time and took us to the boarding area!
As soon as we got off the bus, we boarded the boat and took some commemorative photos! Later, a staff member came around to show us the pictures they took! We decided to purchase one as a keepsake (laughs). Then, we enjoyed the breakfast we had been looking forward to. The morning coffee was really great!
Inside the boat, the air conditioning was on, so I think short sleeves might feel a bit cold.
We received an explanation about the whales from the captain and headed to the deck! The blue of the ocean was something you can't feel in Japan, and the view of Waikiki getting farther away! Plus, Diamond Head was clearly visible! I was already satisfied with just that.
And on that day, we were able to see whales! In fact, multiple times!!! We even encountered a mother and baby whale! There is a limit to how close you can get, so they were a bit far, but we could still see them!
The captain announced the direction of the whales, so everyone moved in unison to follow the report. Even if you don't understand English, you'll be fine just following everyone!
Before we knew it, it was time to disembark, and we took the bus back to the hotel.
Personally, I thought it was really great! It was nice to relax on the boat in the Hawaiian sea, and seeing the whales was truly moving! Since it was a large boat, I don't think you would get seasick (but it's better to take motion sickness medication just in case).
There were plenty of restrooms! They weren't super clean, but it was totally fine! I want to go again!
送迎付きでしたが、自分たちのホテルには止まらなかったので向かい側にあるホテルまで歩きました🌴時間通りに大型バスが迎えに来てくれて、乗り場まで連れてってくれました!
バスに降りてすぐに船に乗り、まずは記念撮影!後ほど、係の人が回ってきて撮った写真を見せてくれます!私たちは記念に購入しました(笑)そして、楽しみにしてた朝食をいただきました🍍朝のコーヒーがめちゃくちゃよかったです☕️
船の中はクーラーがかかっていたので半袖は少し寒いと思います。
船長からクジラの説明を受け、デッキへ!
日本では感じられない海の青さ、遠くなっていくワイキキの街並み!そしてダイヤモンドヘッドがよく見える!これだけで満足でした😆
そしてこの日はクジラを見ることができました!しかも何回も!!!🐳親子のクジラにも遭遇しました!近づける範囲が決まってるので若干遠くはありますが見える!!!
船長が◯時の方向だよとアナウンスしてくれるので、みんなその報告を受けて一斉に移動📢英語がわからなくてもみんなについていけば大丈夫です!!!
あっという間に下船になり、バスに乗ってホテルへ戻りました。
個人的にはめちゃくちゃよかったです!とにかくハワイの海で船に乗りながらのんびりできたのもよかったし、クジラも見れて感動しました!大きな船なので船酔いもしないかなと思います!(一応酔い止めは飲んでおいた方が🙆♀️)
トイレもたくさんありました!すごく綺麗なわけではないですが、全然大丈夫です!また行きたいです🌴🤙
Surprisingly, it's cold inside the ship! You'll need something to wear over your clothes!
意外と船内は寒い!羽織るもの必要!
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed observing the mother and baby whales and the views from the boat. The photos you purchased will surely be a cherished memory of your trip to Hawaii. We hope to see you again soon. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.
この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
親子のクジラの観測や船からの景色をお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。購入されたお写真もハワイ旅行の大切な記念となり良かったですね。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
I was a bit worried because it rained the day before, but on the day itself, it was sunny and I was able to enjoy the beautiful sea. Thank you very much.
前日が雨だったので少し心配してましたが、当日は晴れていてとってもきれいな海を楽しむことができました。
ありがとうございました。
Upon entering, I simply presented the voucher at the reception, and I was guided without any issues. The dishes were just the right amount—not too many, and certainly not too few—and I enjoyed the familiar flavors as always.
入店時にバウチャーを受け付けで提示するだけで、問題なくご案内いただけました。
お料理も多すぎることなく、もちろん少なすぎるわけでもなく、いつもながらのお味で楽しめました。
If you print the voucher and have it ready to hand over, everything will be handled smoothly.
バウチャーを印刷してすぐに渡せるようにしておくと、全てスムースに対応していただけます。
I participated with excitement, knowing that whales come to the waters off Hawaii only during the winter months for calving and raising their young. I was able to see the baby whales a few times! However, they were far away and small, and it was just for a moment, so if I could wish for more, I would have loved to see them even more. Nevertheless, the weather was great, and the cruise itself was very comfortable, allowing me to have the best time. Thank you to all the staff!
鯨が出産、子育てにハワイ沖に来る冬の時期だけということで、ワクワクしながら参加しました。
赤ちゃんを何度か見ることができました!でも遠くて小さい、しかも一瞬なので、欲を言えばもっともっと見たかったです。
ですがお天気もよく、クルーズ自体がとても快適で、最高の時間を過ごすことができました。スタッフのみなさん、ありがとう!
Since I tend to get seasick, I took some motion sickness medication before boarding, but the boat was large and stable, so I had no issues at all. I might not have needed the medication after all.
船酔いするタイプのため酔い止めを飲んで挑みましたが、船が大きく安定していて全く問題ありませんでした。酔い止めはいらなかったかもしれません。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise with your spouse. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the observation of the baby whale (we hope you can see them even closer and more frequently next time). Please do come again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
この度は私共のクルーズにご夫婦でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
赤ちゃんクジラの観測 ( 次回はもっと近くで何度も見れたら良いですね。)そして、朝のクルーズをお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
This was my third trip to Hawaii, and for the first time, I participated in a solo trip. The large bus arrived right on time at the Sheraton hotel 🚌. This time, the tour was made up entirely of international guests.
When we boarded the Star of Honolulu, the captain welcomed us. There was a photo opportunity with the crew as we entered the ship. Later, the crew developed the photos and offered them for sale. I think it was around $26. Many people chose not to buy them, but I purchased one as a keepsake. By the way, they only accept credit cards.
Once on board, I quickly enjoyed some drinks and light snacks. There was a booklet with explanations about whales in Japanese, which I skimmed through, followed by an explanation from the captain about the whales. As the ship set sail, the view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea was absolutely wonderful.
After a while, the captain announced over the intercom, "There are whales at the direction of ◯ o'clock (in English)," and everyone hurriedly pointed their cameras to look. Fortunately, we encountered a mother and calf whale. It was a bit disappointing that we only saw them spouting water and didn’t get to see any larger movements, but just being able to encounter them was great. I made sure to capture it on video.
We were blessed with beautiful weather, making it the best cruising experience!
ハワイ渡航歴3回目にして、初めてひとり旅で参加。シェラトンのホテルまで大型バスが時間きっちり到着🚌
今回は海外の方ばかりのツアーでした。
スターオブホノルル号乗船の時に船長が出迎え。
船内に入る際にクルーから記念撮影があります。
後でクルーが現像してくれて販売してくれます。たしか26$だったかな。
買わない人が多かったですが、私は記念に購入。
ちなみにクレジットカードのみです。
船内に入って早速飲み物と軽食をいただきました。日本語のクジラの説明などが書いた冊子がありさらっと読んだ後、船長からクジラに関する説明。
船が出航し、海から見るワイキキの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドがとてもよかったです。
しばらくすると、船長が船内放送で「◯時の方向にクジラがいます(英語)」と放送されるとみんな慌ててカメラを向けて探します。
運良く親子のクジラに遭遇できました。
今回は潮吹きだけで、大きい仕草を見れなかったのは残念でしたが、遭遇できただけでもよかったです。
しっかり動画に収めました。
お天気にも恵まれ最高のクルージングになりました。

We booked the Captain Bobs experience and it was 10/10. We played volleyball, went snorkeling and had a BBQ lunch. The crew was super sweet and professional!!!
We didn’t see much through the glass bottom areas but were able to see lots of fish and even turtles swimming next to the boat! My daughter was too young to snorkel and this was the perfect option for us.
I was anxious about whether we would be able to see anything, but the captain explained everything in detail, and we were all moved to be able to go see it together. The banana coconut cake was delicious, and the kids were satisfied after eating it and seeing the whales. I thought it might be expensive, but we were satisfied with the boat, the cake, and the coffee, and we made wonderful memories in Hawaii.
見れるかわからないと不安だったけど、キャプテンが、細かく教えてくれて、みんなで見に行けて感動した。
バナナココナッツケーキが美味しくて、子供達は食べてクジラも見れて満足していた。高いかなと思ったけど、船もケーキとコーヒーも満足でハワイのいい思い出ができた
When we boarded, the Japanese were desperately trying to get window seats, but in the end, everyone moves around when going to see the whales, so there's no need to secure a seat desperately.
乗り込んだ時日本人は窓側の席を必死で取ろうとしてたけど、結局クジラを見に行く時はみんな移動するので、席を必死に確保しなくて大丈夫
Thank you very much for joining our cruise for the first time. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching and the light snacks.

クジラの観測と軽食をお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。小さなお子様と共にハワイでの良い思い出になったことが本当に良かったですね。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
It was soo fun the crew members where so nice and kind to everyone and at the end they told us where some things were made in the island that was cool.
The large ship was stable with little rocking, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. The pineapple banana bread at breakfast was very delicious.
We were able to see whales swimming several times, and the scenery was wonderful.
The ship's staff were very kind, and although it was a two-hour cruise, we were able to spend it comfortably.
It was a spacious ship, and those in wheelchairs were able to board without any issues, and there were also many families with small children.
大きな船で揺れも少なく、安心して楽しむことができました。
朝食のパイナップルバナナブレッドがとてもおいしかったです。
クジラが泳いでいるのが何度か見れて、景色も素晴らしかったです。
船のスタッフさんたちはとても親切で、2時間ほどのクルーズでしたが、快適に過ごすことができました。
ゆったりした船で、車いすの方もそのままで乗船できていましたし、小さなお子様連れの方もたくさんいました。
If you are unable to see whales, you can reboard on another day. When you go out on the deck, the wind and sunlight can be strong, so it's a good idea to take precautions, like using clips, to prevent
クジラが見れなかった場合は、別の日に再乗船できるとのことです。
デッキに出ると風と日差しが強いため、帽子が飛ばされないようにクリップなどで対策しておくと、動画や写真撮影の時に邪魔にならないと思います。

The reception started at 8:00, boarding was from 8:45, and the schedule for departure was set, but the reception was quite relaxed, so arriving around 8:30 is safe. Just showing the reservation confirmation email was enough.
The cabin was quite spacious. Seats near the windows are popular, so if you prefer a window seat, it's best to line up early for boarding. The pineapple banana bread that came with the service was really delicious, and I had a second helping. Coffee, tea, and water were also available for free.
As for the whales, I was able to see them more times than I expected! However, they appeared small and far away (due to a Hawaiian treaty that prohibits getting too close to marine life. It's okay if the whales come close to you, and if you're lucky, you might see them up close). So, it's important to listen carefully to the captain's announcements like "You can see a whale in the direction of 〇〇 o'clock."
The captain also announced when sea turtles were swimming by, but I couldn't spot them.
The ocean was incredibly beautiful. I was able to make good use of the morning time, which was very nice.
8:00受付開始、8:45〜乗船、出航のスケジュールでしたが、受付はかなりゆるいので、8:30くらいに間に合うように行けば安心です。予約完了メールを見せるだけでOKでした。
客室内はかなり広いです。窓付近の席は人気なので、窓側がいい方は早めに並んで乗船した方が◎。サービスでついてくるパイナップルバナナブレッドがかなりおいしく、おかわりしました。コーヒー、紅茶、お水もフリーで飲むことができました。
肝心のホエールですが、思っていたより何度か見れました!ただ、船から遠いところで小さめに見えた(ハワイの条約で海の生物に近寄ってはいけないそうです。クジラなどから近寄ってくれるのはOKで、運が良ければすごく近くでみれるかも?)ので、「◯時の方向にクジラが見えます」など、キャプテンのアナウンスをしっかり聞いて見る必要があります。
ウミガメも泳いでいると度々キャプテンがアナウンスしていましたが、私はどこにいるか確認できず見れませんでした。
海がとにかく綺麗でした。朝の時間が有効活用できたのでとてもよかったです。
The plan with transportation costs $21 per person, so depending on the number of people, it might be cheaper to take an Uber. The ship has air conditioning, so it would be good to wear adjustable clot
送迎付きプランは1人につき21ドル〜かかるため、人数によってはUberした方が安いかもしれません。
船内はクーラーが効いているので、調節できる服装で行くとよさそうです。

We applied as a family of six. My grandparents had some concerns about their legs, but we were able to observe the whales beautifully from the third floor of the four-story building!
家族6人で申し込みました。
祖父母は足に不安がありましたが、4階建ての3階でも十分綺麗に鯨を観察することができました!
The upper floor shook more than I expected, but I thought it would be fine if I took some motion sickness medication.
上のフロアは思ったより揺れました、
ただ、酔い止めを飲めば問題ないかなと思いました。

When I went up to the rooftop, there was a slight sway, but I didn't feel nauseous at all! There were quite a few whales out, and it was amazing! I definitely want to go see them again!
屋上まで行くと少し揺れがありましたが、特に酔いなどはありませんでした!
クジラも結構多く出てきてくれて、最高でした!
ぜひまた見に行きたいです!

I saw whales!
The weather was great, it was the best!!
I was worried I might get seasick, but I was fine.
I definitely want to go see them again!
ホエール見れた〜
天候にも恵まれ、最高でした!!
船酔いするかもと心配したけど、大丈夫でしたー
また、是非見に行きたいです
For those who get seasick, I recommend the 1,500-passenger boat. My 80-year-old parents also enjoyed whale watching without getting sick!
船酔いする方は1500人乗りがおすすめです。
80歳の両親も酔わないでホエールウォッチングを楽しめましたー
Thank you very much for joining our cruise with your parents. We are truly delighted that you were able to see whales this time. I am confident that you enjoyed a wonderful cruise in beautiful Hawaii with great weather. Please do come again. All of our staff look forward to welcoming you back.
この度は私共のクルーズにご両親とお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
今回クジラが見れて本当に嬉しく思っております。そして、お天気も良くて素敵なハワイのクルーズを楽しんで頂いたと確信しております。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
I participated with my children. When we boarded the boat, they gave the kids a realistic whale coloring book, which kept them entertained until we arrived at the point (colored pencils were provided). As for the whale watching, we were able to see whales multiple times, and it was an exciting experience for the kids.
子連れで参加しました。船に乗ると子供にリアルなクジラの塗り絵をプレゼントしてくれてポイントまで飽きずに到着(色鉛筆は貸し出し)。そして、肝心のホエールウォッチは何度も何度も鯨を見ることができて子供達も大興奮の体験でした。
One note to keep in mind is that while the experience details mentioned to bring some cash, I was told that drinks could only be purchased with a card. So if you plan to buy drinks on board, a credit
一点注意事項としては、体験詳細の持ち物には多少のお金とありましたが、実際には飲み物を買うときカードオンリーと言われたので、船内で飲み物を買う予定ならクレジットカード必須です。
The Angel Sea was very beautiful. Thanks to the thorough explanation and practice time for snorkeling, I was able to swim to my heart's content during the actual event. Fortunately, a sea turtle that had been resting in a coral cave came out, and I was able to swim with it.
天使の海とても綺麗でした
シュノーケルの丁寧な説明や練習時間のおかげで本番思う存分泳げました
ラッキーなことに珊瑚の洞穴で寝ていた海亀が出てきてくれて一緒に泳ぐこともできました
It's recommended to carefully peek into the coral holes to look for sea turtles.
海亀は珊瑚の穴の中にいるようなので注意深く覗いて探すのがおすすめです
I had given up on making a reservation through the official booking site, but then I found this tour and signed up. Since I didn't have a rental car, it was really helpful that they provided transportation to the hotel. The rental equipment was properly arranged, and the driver was a fun person, which was great.
公式予約サイトで予約が取れなかったので諦めていたところ、こちらのツアーを見つけて申し込みました。
レンタカーしていなかったので、ホテルに送迎してもらえて本当に助かりました。
レンタル道具もキチンとあり、ドライバーさんも楽しい方で良かったです。
First, before departure, we enjoyed drinks and delicious cake, followed by an explanation from the captain, and soon after, we set sail. As soon as we departed, I went up to the deck and was greeted by the stunning views of Waikiki that are usually not visible. With explanations from the captain in Japanese, we were able to see whales about five times from various angles: the front of the boat, the port side, and the starboard side. It was a quick two hours that flew by.
まず、出航前にドリンクと美味しいケーキ、そして船長からの説明があり、程なくすると出航です。
出航してからすぐにデッキにあがり、普段見ることができないワイキキの景色が目に入ります。船長からの説明および日本語で説明を受け、船の前方、左舷、右舷様々な角度からクジラを5回ほどみることができました。
アッとゆう間の2時間でした。
On the ship, there is wind, so a windbreaker would be best.
船上は風があり風よけの上着があればベスト
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching (about five times, which was great!) and the views from the ship. We hope to see you again soon. All of our staff are looking forward to your visit.

The wind felt nice, and the sea was incredibly beautiful, but the main dolphin watching only allowed us to see them small and far away. The canoe group from another tour got much closer to them. I was really looking forward to it, so it was a bit disappointing. The time spent watching dolphins was short, and most of the time was spent snorkeling, but since we were swimming in deep water, there were hardly any fish, so it felt like there was no need to go on the tour just to swim.
The staff were very cheerful and wonderful, and the final "Harasho" was fun. However, I ordered some products from a Japanese staff member on the bus, but when I realized I hadn’t received them after getting on the boat, I informed them. They told me to wait a bit because it was shooting time, and when it seemed like they weren't in a hurry to get it, they later asked how I would like to pay. I was like, "Well, I already bought it..." The impression I got was that the Japanese staff were kind to those who ordered commemorative photos, but not so much otherwise.
風は気持ち良かったし、海ももっても綺麗でしたが、メインのイルカウォッチングは遠くに小さく見えるだけ、別のツアーのカヌーの方達はとっても近くまで行っていました。
楽しみにして行ったので、少し残念でした。
イルカを見る時間も短く、ほとんどの時間がシュノーケリングでしたが、深いところで泳ぐので、魚もほとんどいなくて、わざわざツアーで泳ぐ必要はなかったなといった感じでした。
スタッフの皆さんはとっても明るくて素敵で、最後のハラショーも楽しかったです。
ただ、バスで日本人スタッフの方に商品を注文したのですが、船にのってから受け取るはずがもらっていないことに途中で気づいて伝えると、撮影時間だということもありちょっと待ってくださいといわれ、急いで撮りに行く気配がないとおもったら、ひと段落ついてからお支払いはどうしますか?と、
いやもう買ってますけど、、となりました。
日本人スタッフの方は、記念撮影を注文した方には親切だけど、、という印象でした
Thank you very much for participating in our Dolphin & You tour. We sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations, despite your anticipation.
We deeply regret any inconvenience regarding the receipt of the product and any shortcomings in our staff's response. We strive to ensure that everyone can enjoy their experience safely and comfortably, and we take your feedback seriously. We will share it with our manager and team to improve our services in the future.
Regarding dolphin watching, we adhere to the regulations concerning wildlife protection in the state of Hawaii, and we always maintain an appropriate distance to ensure the safety and health of the dolphins. Since we are dealing with nature, there may be days when the dolphins are seen from a distance or in smaller numbers. Upon reviewing the photos from the tour day, it appears that some participants on the canoe approached the dolphins without adhering to the protection regulations for spinner dolphins set by the state of Hawaii. Additionally, the conditions of the sea can affect the snorkeling environment and the types of creatures that can be seen. We always follow the regulations to minimize the impact on the dolphins and ensure safe observation, so we kindly ask for your understanding.
Once again, thank you for participating and for your valuable feedback. We will continue to strive to provide everyone with better experiences, and we would be delighted to have the opportunity to see you again in the future.
この度は弊社のドルフィン&ユーツアーにご参加いただき、誠にありがとうございました。
楽しみにしていただいていたにもかかわらず、ご期待に添えず、申し訳ございません。
商品の受け取りに関するご不便や、スタッフの対応に至らない点があったこと、心よりお詫び申し上げます。皆様に安心して快適に楽しんでいただけるよう努めておりますが、今回のご意見を真摯に受け止め、マネージャーとチーム内で共有し、今後のサービス向上に活かしてまいります。
イルカウォッチングについてですが、弊社はハワイ州の野生動物保護に関する規制に従い、イルカの安全と健康を守るため、常に適切な距離を保って観察を行っております。自然を相手にするため、その日の状況によってイルカが遠くに見えたり、数が少なかったりすることもございます。ツアーの日の写真を確認したところ、カヌーに乗っていた方々はハワイ州が定めるスピナードルフィンの保護規定を守らずにイルカに近づいております。また、海のコンディションによってシュノーケリングの環境や見られる生き物の種類にも違いが出ることがございます。弊社はイルカへの影響を最小限に抑えるため、常に規定を守り、安全な観察を行っておりますので、何卒ご理解賜りますようお願い申し上げます。
改めまして、この度はご参加いただき、また貴重なご意見をお寄せいただきありがとうございました。今後も皆様により良い体験をお届けできるよう努めてまいりますので、またお目にかかれる機会がございましたら嬉しく思います。
I participated with my 4 and 6-year-old children. I was worried they might not enjoy it since they are so young, but they seemed to have a great time seeing lots of dolphins and riding on a boat that we usually don't get to ride on! They were especially excited about the tattoo stickers they got at the end, which they had been looking forward to even before we went! They lasted for three days even after taking a bath, so it was a bit challenging to remove them (laughs).
As for snorkeling, it seemed difficult for them to breathe through the snorkel, so they quickly came back up from the water. I think I would like to try that again when they are older! They ended up going down the slide by themselves, and they had so much fun that they went down three times! (laughs) Also, they loved the lemonade they could drink on the boat, and since returning home, they've started drinking lemonade regularly!
The crew members were very kind, and we had a truly wonderful experience. Thank you!
4歳6歳の子どもと一緒に参加させていただきました。
子どもたちが小さかったので楽しめるか心配でしたがたくさんのイルカがみれたり、普段乗ることのない船に乗ったりととても楽しかったようです!
特に最後に貼ってもらえるタトゥーシールは行く前から楽しみにしてたのもありすごく喜んでました!!
お風呂に入っても3日は余裕でもってたので剥がすとき少し大変でした(笑)
肝心のシュノーケリングはシュノーケルをつけて口呼吸するということが難しかったようで一瞬で海からあがりました。
これはまた大きくなったら再チャレンジしたいなと思います!
なのでスライダーは自分ひとりで滑ることになりましたがとっても楽しく3回も滑りました!笑
あと子どもたちが船で飲めるレモネードを気に入って帰国してからもレモネード飲むようになりました!
クルーのみなさんもとても優しく本当にいい体験をさせていただきました。
ありがとうございました!
Thank you very much for participating in our Dolphin & You tour with your child. We also greatly appreciate you sharing such a wonderful review.
We are very pleased to hear that your children enjoyed seeing the dolphins and liked the tattoo stickers and lemonade. While snorkeling seemed a bit challenging, we are glad to know that you had a great time on the water slide! We hope your wonderful moments in Hawaii became cherished memories.
We look forward to your next trip and hope you will give snorkeling another try. When you come back to Hawaii, please join our tours again. Our staff is sincerely looking forward to welcoming you. Mahalo!
この度は、弊社のドルフィン&ユーツアーに親子でご参加いただき、誠にありがとうございます。また、素敵なレビューをシェアしていただき、重ねて感謝申し上げます。
お子様たちがイルカを見て楽しんでいただけたこと、そしてタトゥーシールやレモネードを気に入っていただけたことを非常に嬉しく思います。シュノーケリングは少し難しかったようですが、ウォータースライダーでは存分に楽しんでいただけて何よりです!ハワイでの素晴らしいひとときが、思い出深いものとなったことを願っております。
次回のご旅行では、ぜひシュノーケリングにも再チャレンジしていただけることを楽しみにしています。 またハワイにお越しの際には、ぜひ弊社のツアーにも参加してください。スタッフ一同、心よりお待ちしております。マハロ!
The first time I couldn't see any whales, but I received a return ticket and went back later for a second chance. That day, I spotted a whale as soon as I boarded, which was great!
初めての時はクジラが見られなく、再上船券を頂き後日リベンジ、その日は乗船してすぐにクジラ発見よかったです。
The probability of not seeing whales is said to be low, but when you go for a revenge trip, there is no shuttle service, so using a bus or similar means will be cheaper.
クジラが見られない確率は低いそうですが、リベンジする時は送迎がないのでバスなど利用して行くと安くあがります。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise as a form of revenge. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching this time. Please come again. All of our staff are looking forward to your visit.
この度は私共のクルーズにリベンジとしてお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
今回はクジラの観測をお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
I arranged for a pickup to the port, making the travel easy.
After the ship set sail, I enjoyed the view from the boat and thought, "I wonder if they'll come out today? When will they come out?" I had seen something like a spout once, so I was hopeful, but they didn't show up for a while. Just when I thought it was over, they jumped out in succession.
I'm really glad I got to see them. I appreciate the captain for extending the trip a bit since they came out towards the end!
港まで送迎付きにして楽に移動。
船が出航してしばらくは船からの景色を楽しみ、「今日は出てきてくれるかな? いつ出てきてくれるのかな?」なんて思っていました。
一度潮吹き、のようなものを見たので期待しつつも、その後もなかなか出てきてくれず、最後ダメかなと思ったら、連続でジャンプしてくれました。
とにかく見られて良かったです。
最後の方に連続だったので、少し運行を伸ばしてくれた船長さんに感謝!
It is said that they can be seen from January to March, but February is a good month as many babies are born and families spend time together.
1月から3月まで見られるそうですが、2月は赤ちゃんが生まれて親子、家族でいることが多いらしく、良い月とのことです。
Thank you very much for bringing your family on our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching and the views from the boat. It was truly lucky to see a series of jumps at the very end. We also appreciate your very positive review. Please do come again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
この度は私共のクルーズに御家族でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
