All Reviews for For 2 Year Olds

I participated in a deluxe cruise on April 20, 2008.

There were about 40 passengers in total, and we were the only three Japanese people. The explanations were primarily in English, but there was a staff member who was fluent in Japanese, so I didn't feel any particular inconvenience.

The cabin has about 30 seats, but many people were enjoying the view from the deck. There are two restrooms available.

The boat swayed quite a bit, and two of my companions got seasick. It seems that standing and looking at the distant scenery is less likely to cause nausea than sitting down. I was completely fine, though.

We mostly saw dolphins swimming in the distance, but some dolphins came close to the boat, which was very exciting when we saw them up close. However, it seemed to be a sleepy time for them, so it was disappointing that we didn't get to see any jumps or spins. For dolphin watching, an early morning cruise might be better.

Regarding snorkeling, I have experienced clearer waters before, so I wasn't particularly impressed, but I did see a turtle, and I enjoyed it to some extent. Depending on the season, it might feel a bit cold, so I recommend wearing a rash guard. It also helps prevent sunburn.

The lunch was delicious, but the boat was rocking, so I was focused on eating without dropping anything from my plate.

I think the encounter rate with dolphins and turtles and the degree of the boat's sway depend on timing. All the staff were kind, fun, and very good. However, since it's an activity with many foreigners, I wouldn't recommend it for those who are not comfortable in that kind of atmosphere.

2008年4月20日のデラックスクルーズに参加。

総勢40名程度の乗客で、日本人は我々三名のみ。基本的に説明は英語ですが、日本語の堪能なスタッフがケアしてくださるので、特に不都合は感じませんでした。

キャビンは30席程度の座席がありますが、デッキで外を眺めている人が多かったです。トイレは2箇所あります。

ボートはかなり揺れるので、同行者二名は船酔いになってしまいました。座っているよりも、立って遠くの景色を眺めている方が酔いにくいようです。私は全く平気でしたが。

お目当てのイルカは遠方を泳ぐ姿を見るという感じだったのですが、中には船の近くまで寄って来るイルカもいて、間近で見たときはとても興奮しました。しかしながら、眠い時間帯だったようで、ジャンプやスピンが見られなかったのは残念です。イルカウォッチングに関しては早起きクルーズの方が良いかもしれません。

シュノーケリングに関しては、もっと透明度の高い海での経験があるので、さほどの感激はありませんでしたが、ウミガメも一匹見られましたし、それなりに楽しめました。季節によっては若干寒く感じることもあるかと思いますので、ラッシュガードの着用をおすすめします。日焼け防止にもなりますし。

ランチは美味しかったのですが、なにせ船が揺れるので、皿から落ちないように食べることに必死でした。

イルカやウミガメとの遭遇率や船の揺れ具合はタイミングによると思います。スタッフは全員親切で楽しくて非常に良かったです。ただし外国人の多いアクティビティなので、そういう雰囲気が苦手な人にはおすすめしません。

The tour can't be called fun, but i can say "don't miss it". It's very informative, quite solemn (the Arizona portion) and something i think every visitor should take in. It was well organized, good timing, and did everything we hoped it would.

we absolutely had a great time on the cruise we saw whale activity just as promised. The only two things that I would suggest in the future is that you may want to utilize more of the boats space with the activities you provided, people were too crowded. the buffet needed to be held open longer and have food available in supple amounts those of us who were told we could watch the whales longer and that the buffet would be there came back to limited food and a quick clean up.

My bother and I went on the Oahu Day Cruise on April 10th 2008 just for an activity for the day. The cruise was an amazing experience with great staff and good people. The whales were amazing that day, so there was no lack of seeing one. I would highly recommend this activity during april or wnever there are whales to watch. It was quite an experience. Thanks to Hawaii Activities, and the Star of Honolulu crew.

This tour, starting with a kind morning call at 5 AM from the hotel, is truly fulfilling and highly recommended! You can see a pod of dolphins within a meter, and afterwards, encounter giant sea turtles and tropical fish! The cheeseburgers made by the captain on the boat are exquisite, and you can even enjoy kayak surfing. Finally, you can experience hula at a park near the harbor. It's a parade of activities that can only be done in Hawaii! Additionally, there is a photographer accompanying the tour, and if you request, they will edit the photos taken during the tour into a DVD and deliver it the next day! This way, the wonderful experiences of the day can be kept as souvenirs! Not only is the tour itself interesting, but the magnificent views of Hawaii's emerald green sea from the catamaran yacht are also remarkable! I absolutely recommend this tour! It may seem a bit pricey, but given the content, it's worth it! I truly had a great time! Thank you, staff!!!

朝5時の宿泊ホテルへの親切なモーニングコールからはじまるこのツアー、ほんとに充実していて、お勧め度満点です！！
イルカの群れを１ｍ以内で見ることができ、そのあとは巨大海亀や熱帯魚と遭遇！　船の上で船長さんが作ってくれるチーズバーガーも絶品だし、カヤックサーフィンまで楽しめ、最後は港の近くの公園でフラの体験までできます。まさにハワイでしかできないことのオンパレード！　また、このツアーにはカメラマンさんも同行していて、自分たちのツアーの様子を撮った写真を申し込むとＤＶＤで編集して翌日には渡してくれます！　これでこの日のすばらしい経験が、お土産品として残ります！　ツアー自体の面白さもさることながら、カタマランヨットから見るハワイのエメラルドグリーンの海をはじめとする雄大な景色も乙なものです！　絶対お勧めのツアーです！　少し代金が高い気もするかもしれませんが、この内容なら納得です！！
本当に楽しかったです！スタッフの皆さん、マハロ！！！

My family had a wonderful time on this cruise. We would do this again if we go back to Hawaii. Everyone should try it, the food was great, the entertainment was great. Evrything was wonderful.

The meal, the activities alongside the watching, and the prices were all satisfactory. We saw whales several times!! However, they didn't jump as much as in the photos. It felt more like their fins were rolling with the waves. Still, being able to experience whales up close like this is truly unique to Hawaii.

食事内容、ウォッチングと平行しているアクティビティー、料金とも納得できるものでした。クジラも何度か出てくれましたしね！！でもあの写真程はジャンプしませんでした。波とともに背びれがうねる~と言う感じです。それにしても　こんなに近くでクジラを感じられるのはやはりハワイならではですよね。　

This is my fifth time in Hawaii, and it's a family tradition to come here. Since handling money can be a hassle, we choose the full package course. After experiencing bodyboarding here, my kids have become huge fans of it. This time, we revisited the sensations here before later having the real experience at Kailua Beach, where we usually go. Both adults and kids can have a lot of fun here. You might not be able to laugh and have such a good time at a pool in Japan? The international vibe really helps to open up the spirit. The barbecue lunch this time was well-received by the kids. To be honest, it wasn't good in the past, but it was delicious this time. If the budget allows, I think the full package course is really convenient. This pool is definitely an activity we can't miss next summer.

ハワイはもう五回目ですが、必ず行くのが家族の決まりです。お金持つのが面倒なので、フルセットのコースを選択します。子供は、ここでボディーボード体験してから、ボディーボード大好きっ子になりました。今回も、やっぱりここでまず感覚を思い出し、後日、いつも行っているカイルアビーチで本番体験してました。大人も子供も、ここでいっぱい楽しめます。日本のプールじゃここまで笑ってワイワイ騒げないかも？インターナショナルな感じがやっぱり気持ちを開放的にさせるんですね。今回のバーベキューランチは子供たち
に好評でした。ハッキリ言って今まではＮＯ ＧＯＯＤでしたけど、おいしかったですよ。もしも予算が許すならば、全部セットのコースの方が、本当に楽ちんだと思います。来年の夏もこのプールは絶対に外せないアクティビティです。

My client called wanting a dinner cruise at sunset so he could ask the woman of his dreams to marry him!

As his travel agent I opted to use Hawaii Activities. We booked the Sunset Dinner Cruise and Tom added the private dinning options with the complimentary professional picture.

I received a picture text at 2:30am from Tom indicating that Conni had said yes, taken by a cruise line staff!

My clients had an absolutely wonderful time with memories that will carry them through their life together.

The Travel DRS will in the future recommend this cruise to any/all my clients as an option for their Hawaii vacation.

The Travel DRS give a 5**** to Hawaii Activities.
I will let other Travel Agents know about this site!

The thrilling slides and the excitement of the wave pool had the kids overjoyed. There are also pools that smaller children can enjoy. The bead ice was incredibly delicious. When the sun went down, it got a bit chilly, and while you could warm up in the jacuzzi, it was for ages 21 and over, so the kids were shivering.

スリル満点のスライダーの数々、波のプールの迫力に子供達は大喜びでした。小さい子供も十分楽しめるプールもあります。ビーズアイス（？）がめっちゃおいしかった。日がかげると肌寒くジャグジーであったまれるが、21歳以上利用のため子供は入れずふるえていた。

This was a great tour. I am planning on doing it again in 2009. Our tour guide/driver, Art, was great. Great deal and very informative.

It was an early morning departure from a still chilly start, but when we reached the point, we were able to see an unexpected pod of dolphins even from the boat. There were mother and baby dolphins, and dolphins jumping out of the water.

Due to the sea conditions that day, we ended up sitting on the ladder of the boat and peering into the water for dolphin watching, but we were able to see the dolphins swimming alongside the boat up close, which was truly moving.

After moving to a calm spot, we enjoyed plenty of snorkeling and encountered colorful fish and sea turtles. We also had fun playing with the kayak we brought on board, and the hamburgers and pineapples we ate on the boat were delicious!

The staff were all fun and considerate, keeping the participants engaged! I entrusted the camera to a local staff member for underwater dolphin photos, and we got a lot of great shots (laughs).

Finally, we even had a hula lesson, making it a wonderful experience. Despite being such a packed tour, it ended in half a day, allowing us to spend a meaningful day.

まだ肌寒い早朝からのの出航でしたが、ポイントに着くと、思いがけないほどのイルカの群れが船の上からでも確認できました。親子イルカや、海上にジャンプするイルカ・・。
この日は海のコンディションにより、船にかけたハシゴに腰掛け、水のなかに顔をつっこんでのドルフィンウォッチングとなりましたが、船と併走して泳ぐイルカ達の様子を、本当に間近で見ることができ、感動です。　
また、穏やかな場所に移動してから、たっぷりシュノーケリングもして、色とりどりの魚や海がめにも出会えました。他にも、船に積んできたカヤックで遊んだり、船上で食べたハンバーガーやパイナップルも美味しかったです☆　
スタッフが全員楽しく、気遣いのある方ばかりで、参加者を飽きさせません！
イルカの水中写真は、現地のスタッフの人にカメラを託して撮ってもらったら、いい写真が沢山撮れました（笑）。
最後にフラレッスンまでついて、いい経験になりましたよ。
こんな盛り沢山のツアーなのに半日で終わるので、１日有意義に過ごせました。

Thank you for your help.
My family booked a trip to Big Splash. We were looking forward to this tour even before we went, and it was incredibly fun, living up to our expectations, and our whole family was very satisfied. The park was not as large as we thought, so we were able to see everything within the time we had, and there were thrilling attractions that you wouldn't find in Japan, making it an exciting day. However, it was a bit cold since it was March, which was a bit disappointing.

お世話になりました。
家族でビッグスプラッシュを申し込みました。行く前から楽しみにしていたツアーだったのですが、期待を裏切らないとてもおもしろいもので、家族全員大満足しました。園内は思ったより広くなかったので、時間内にすべて回ることができましたし、日本では考えられないスリル満点のアトラクションもあり、大興奮した一日でした。ただ、3月ということで、ちょっと寒かったのが残念です。

IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE WATCHING WHALES WHILE HAVING LUNCH. HAD A GREAT TIME!

Great tour and guide

I took my girl on this 3 star dinner cruise and we had a really great time. She thought watching the sunset out by diamond head was really romantic - bonus points for me! I never ate a whole lobster before and it was awesome. The show was pretty sweet too because it is a small stage and they are really close to you and they have cool costumes. Thanks for a great night!

Since I went in March, the water was cold! Even with a wetsuit on, I shivered after being in for a long time. It was great to see a group of nearly 20 dolphins. However, I think it would have been even better if I had brought my own underwater camera.

3月に行ったので水は冷たかったです！ウェットｽｰﾂを着ても長い間入ってると身体がふるえました。
ｲﾙｶにも20匹近くの団体に会えたりしてよかったです。ただ自分で水中カメラを用意していくともっともっとよかったのではと思いました。

I felt that there were a few fewer attractions, but it was nice to spend a relaxing time with my family. There are some thrilling rides, but there were also things that young people could enjoy. 😊

アトラクション的には少し少なかったように思いますが、家族でゆっくりした時間が過ごせたのでよかったです。
絶叫系は多少ありますが、若いヒトでもたのしめるものがありましたよ＾＾

We briefly saw some whales, but did not really get close enough to get any good pictures. Food was okay. The air conditioning was on high and everyone, even the mem on board were complaining about how cold it was. It was cool and windy out on deck, but people were going out to try to warm up. It really distracted from the enjoyment of the cruise.

The Whale watch cruise aboard the Star of Honolulu was enjoyable. We did see whales from a distance and near the boat. We also saw spinner dolphins at the beginning of the cruise.
The other activities on board besides the whale watching was entertaining. My daughter enjoyed making leis for us and herself.
The lunch that was served was delicious and my boyfriend enjoyed returning to the buffet for a second helping of the salads. My daughter enjoyed the fruits and cookies that were served. The price of drinks were a bit pricey.

I want to thank the staff who helped me cleanup after my daughter when she became seasick on the cruise. They also stopped by our table afterwards and inquired about how she was doing. Thanks for your concern. Thanks also to the passengers who helped me as well with their kleenex and kindness.

I would recommend this cruise to anyone who wants an off island excursion. It shows the island's beauty from a different viewpoint.

I participated with three women on February 27.

The weather was nice, warm, and perfect for the beach.

The guides, Kayoko, Papa, Peter, Olli, Bobby, and Justin, were all unique and wonderful people! I especially appreciated Kayoko's help.

Fortunately, we were able to see whales and turtles. We also got a great view of dolphins, and even for someone like me who is scared of the ocean, it was so cute that I forgot all about my fears!

Kayaking was also fun♪

I would love to participate again!

２月２７日に女３人で参加しました。

I took a few of my friends to this Captain Bob's Snorkel and oh boy did we ALL had a BLAST! The crew was friendly, and the food was great. We played volleyball and wonder around the sand bar and it was the coolest thing ever! The snorkeling spot was filled with all kinds of different fishes and unique creatures of the ocean! Overall, I had the time of my life, and I highly recommend this snorkeling tour to everybody and anybody, even first timer! Thank you Captain Bob's Crew & Hawaii Activities Agents!

The cruise was nice and we DID see whales! Not a lot of them, but a few spouts and breaches. Too far to really get any type of photo. The lunch is well worth it - better food than what we had at the Polynesian Center Luau!!! I'd recommend to friends who are on first time visits.

We really enjoyed this dinner cruise and would highly recommend it to any couple. We had a lovely Valentine evening.

It was my first time going whale watching. After doing some research, I found that booking through Alan was the cheapest option. We participated in the no-lunch course, and it was the right choice! Although they say it doesn't sway much, it still rocked a bit... If you're prone to seasickness, it's best to take some motion sickness medication in advance. Oh, they also provide motion sickness medication on board. Coffee, tea, and water are free!

The weather was nice on the day of the trip, and the interpreter mentioned, "It's the season, so we see whales every day," so I was hopeful... but no whales appeared, no matter how long we waited. Other guests seemed to be getting restless too. There were hula, ukulele, and lei-making classes offered, but I couldn't bring myself to participate since we hadn't seen any whales yet... (Other guests joined in and seemed to be enjoying it!) Just as we were nearing the return time, we finally saw a mother and calf whale breaching! However... they were far away... We only caught a glimpse of them a few times. I thought, "Is this really it?" But, since they are wild animals and there are regulations against getting within 100 meters, it can't be helped. My expectations were too high. Still, even from a distance, watching the mother and calf whales swimming leisurely made me feel quite happy!

I recommend bringing a light long-sleeve shirt when boarding. It can get quite cold on the water due to the strong wind.

初ホールウォッチングでした。いろいろ調べた結果、アランちゃんから申し込むのが一番安かったです。私達は昼なしコースで参加しました。そして正解でした！揺れにくい、とは言ってもやっぱり揺れました･･･。船に弱い方は、あらかじめ酔い止めを飲んでおいたほうが良いでしょう。あ、船内でも酔い止めをくれますよ。コーヒー、紅茶、水は無料です♪

当日は天気もよく、通訳の方が「今はシーズンなので毎日鯨を見れてます」と仰っていたので期待していたのですが。。。待てど暮らせど鯨現れず。。。ほかのお客さん達も時間を持て余しているようでした。フラ、ウクレレ、レイ教室も催されていましたが、まだ鯨を見れてないのに･･･と私は参加する気持ちになれませんでした。（ほかのお客さん達は参加していました。楽しんでいましたよ！）そして、もう帰港時間間際･･･というところでやっと親子鯨のブリーチングを見れました！ただ・・・遠い・・・。ぷしゅーっていうのと、背中チラリが何回か見れただけ。あれ？これで終わりなの？と思ってしまいました。でも、野生ですし、100Ｍ以内近づいたらいけない規制があるようで、仕方がないですね。期待が大きすぎました。でも、遠くでしたが、ゆったり泳いでいる親子くじらを見て、なんだか幸せ気分になれました♪

乗船するときは、薄手の長袖を持っていかれたほうがいいと思います。海の上って風が強く結構寒いです。

Great whale watching tour. We seen 14 whales. It was awesome.

highly reccomend this dinner cruise to anyone who wants to have a great romantic night with the one you love. the staff is amazing and the food was just so delicious. i have been on many dinner cruises and the 5star was by far the best one i have ever been on. you can tell that the staff and the chefs take a lot of time and care to make sure that you have a great evening. worth every penny!

The whale watching was GREAT! The whales were active and acting as if they knew we were there to see them. From reading other comments, we thought we were not going to see any whales or they would not be as active as the pictures show. But, they were definately right on time! Plus, the lunch they served on the boat was good. For the price you pay, you will get your moneys worth and certainly enjoy yourself. I would recommend this activity to anyone that enjoy whale watching, especially on a nice boat.

I participated with my child. The child was overjoyed and loved the dolphin boom. The cheeseburger we had on the boat was also the best. ☆

子供と一緒の参加でした。子供は大喜びでドロフィンブームです。船で食べたチーズバーガーも最高でした。☆

This is my second time on the Star of Honolulu.
Last time, the dinner cruise was amazing.
This time, I participated in the seasonal whale watching.
The lunch was delicious! Making leis and experiencing ukulele and hula was so much fun! The crew members were also wonderful people, as expected!
Star of Honolulu is the best!!
And luckily, we were able to see whales.
We witnessed a lively baby whale breaching multiple times, followed by the mother whale occasionally spouting water and showing her large back as she followed along. It was breathtaking!
I highly recommend this tour to everyone.
Finally, Star of Honolulu is the best!!!!
