All Reviews for For 2 Year Olds

The ocean was incredibly beautiful and amazing. I was surprised to be able to swim so close to sea turtles!!

But be careful! The waters in Hawaii in February are still quite cold! You'll be shivering on the boat, so it's a good idea to bring a change of clothes and something like a Gore-Tex windbreaker.

海がとにかくキレイでサイコーでした。
ウミガメとこんなに近くで泳げるなんてビックリ!!

でも気を付けて！2月のハワイの海はまだまだつめたい！船の上では寒さに震えるので、着替えと風よけのゴアテックス的なモノを持って行くと良いよ。

At first, I was worried about whether the staff could really speak Japanese, but they spoke it very well, and the sandbar was absolutely stunning. The hamburgers had a wild vibe that was different from Japan, and they were great! You can also get refills. Lastly, there is a tip, but for this price, the experience was definitely worth it.

初めスタッフさんが本当に日本語話せるのか不安でしたが、めっちゃ話せるしサンドバーも絶景でした。
ハンバーガーもワイルドな感じで日本とはまた違いよかったです！おかわりもできます
最後にチップなどありますがこの金額なら全然良い内容でした。

At the end of February, it was a bit chilly, but I was able to see sea turtles, go snorkeling, enjoy delicious lunches, and even had fun singing! However, the snorkeling spot wasn't as beautiful as I had imagined; I did see some fish, but I was expecting a clearer sea, so that was a bit disappointing. Still, I had a great time!

2月末で肌寒かったですが、ウミガメが見れたりシュノーケリングしたりお昼も美味しく、歌を歌ってくれたりして楽しく過ごせました！
ただシュノーケリングの海が思っていたよりキレイではなく魚は見れましたが、もっと透き通った海を想像していたので、そこは残念でした。でも、楽しく過ごせたので良かったです！

I was able to see the whales' spouts and backs! It was more fun than I expected to be so close to the whales. We also saw a turtle right after we set sail. Although we didn't see any jumps, the view of Waikiki from the ocean was very beautiful!

クジラの潮吹きと背中を見ることができました！思っていたよりも近くにクジラがいて楽しかったです。出航してすぐに亀も見れました。
ジャンプは見れませんでしたが、海側から見るワイキキの風景はとても綺麗でした！！

Shuttle pick up and drop off were seamless. The perfect amount of time at the Bay to get through admissions, snorkel, float, sun and snack! The gear worked well and fit like a glove.

The pasta and meat are delicious❣️ The portions might be a bit on the smaller side. I think the dessert could be even better with a bit more creativity.

パスタとお肉は美味しい❣️量は若干少なめかもしれません。デザートはもう少し工夫があるとさらに良いと思います。

We participated as a family of three. The meeting time was early in the morning, but surprisingly, we received a wake-up call in our hotel room! The crew was incredibly energetic and worked hard to keep the atmosphere lively. We had a great time.

Whenever we spotted dolphins, we jumped in to see them. We repeated this a few times, going back and forth to where the dolphins were. (For those who are snorkeling for the first time, it might be a bit scary.) While there’s no worry of drowning since you wear a life jacket, the water is quite deep. The dolphins swam quite below us, and they were fast, so we couldn't see them up close, but we did get to see them jumping and swimming in groups.

A sea turtle swam slowly close to us, and my daughter was able to capture some photos of it up close. We also encountered whales from the boat.

The cheeseburger for lunch was quite substantial, and the pineapple was sweet and delicious! However, I think it might be tough for those who get motion sickness. If you don’t take precautions, it could be quite challenging. Floating and swimming in the deep sea is the most likely to cause seasickness.

At the end, we took a group photo, and they later sent the pictures via email. I think the service was attentive in every aspect.

We returned to Waikiki in the early afternoon, which allowed us to schedule other plans for the afternoon, so it was good to do it in the morning. Thank you for a fun day!

家族３人で参加しました。集合時間が早朝だったのですが、なんとホテルの部屋にモーニングコール(^^♪びっくりしました！
クルーの皆さんはめっちゃテンション高く、一生懸命盛り上げてくれ(^^)/
とても楽しく過ごせました。
イルカを見つけると、そこへ飛び込んでイルカを見る。また船でイルカのいる場所に行きイルカを見る・・・を何度か繰り返しました。
(シュノーケリング初めての方は怖いかもしれません）ライフジャケットを着ているので溺れる心配はありませんが、かなり深いので（汗）
イルカは私たちのかなり下を泳いでいて、スピードも早くてあまり近くでは見られませんでしたが、群れで海上をはねて泳ぐ姿も見れました。
ウミガメはゆっくり私たちの近くに泳いできてくれて、娘は至近距離で泳ぐ姿を撮影できました。船の上からは鯨にも会えました。
お昼のチーズバーガーはお肉がかなりボリュ－ムあり。パイナップルも甘くておいしかったです！
ただ、乗り物酔いする方にはかなりきついかと思います。対策していかないと、大変だと思います。船よりも、深い海で浮いて泳ぐことが一番酔います。

最後に全員で写真を撮り、後にメールで写真を送ってくださいました。
何から何まで行き届いたサービスだと思います。

ワイキキに戻るのはお昼過ぎ。午後からは違う予定を入れられるので午前にしてよかったです。
楽しい一日をありがとうございました！

I was very satisfied because I could ride the slides multiple times with almost no waiting time. There are a variety of slides, so I think you'll be able to find your favorite. The lockers have a PIN code, so you don't have to carry a key like at pools in Japan, and it was very convenient since you could open and close them multiple times. It was a bit disappointing that it rained occasionally and the wind was strong. Also, the shower water was a little cold. For those planning to go by bus, I recommend a plan with transportation included, as the road can be a bit dangerous.

待ち時間ほぼ無しで何度もスライダーに乗ることができ、とても満足することができました。スライダーの種類も豊富で、お気に入りのスライダーを見つけることができると思います。ロッカーは暗証番号付きで、日本のプールの様に鍵を持たなくて済むし、何度も開け閉めができたのでとても便利でした。時々雨が降ったり、風が強かったのが残念でした。あと、シャワーの水が少し冷たかったです。Theバスで行く予定の方は、少し道が危険なので送迎付きのプランをお勧めします。

I was surprised to see whales so close to the coast. I was also happy to see them spouting several times. The ship was large and impressive, and I didn't get seasick.

海岸からあれほど近くに鯨がいるなんて驚きでした。潮吹きも何度も見られて嬉しかったです。
船は大きくて立派で、船酔いもしませんでした。

We saw dolphins, turtles, and even a whale, and there was a rainbow too—it was amazing! Since it's cold in February, it's better to spend $10 to rent a wetsuit!

いるか、亀、くじら、虹まで出て最高でした！
2月は寒いのでウェットスーツは10ドル出してでも借りた方が良いです！

We went in late February. Since we went as a family, we all wore matching aloha shirts, and the women wore aloha dresses. However, everything from meals to shows was outdoors, so even in Hawaii, it was cold in February. We needed jackets, like hoodies or jumpers.

But from the moment we got on the bus, we practiced clapping and learned about the origins of the words, which made the trip enjoyable. Of course, everything was in English, but the guide worked hard to speak in Japanese and used gestures, so even if we didn't understand much English, we were able to have fun!

私達は2月の下旬に行きました。
家族で行ったので、全員でアロハシャツを揃えて、女性はアロハのワンピースで行きました。が、食事からショーからすべて外だったので、いくらハワイでも2月は寒かったです。上着、普通にパーカーやジャンパーが必要なぐらいでした。

でも行く時からバスの中で手拍子の練習や、言葉の由来などを教えてくれて、楽しみながら行けました。
もちろん全部英語でしたが、ガイドさんが頑張って日本語で話してくれたり、身振り手振りを入れてくれるので、あまり英語が分からなくても楽しめました！

I participated in early February. Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales and just ended up cruising. I was really hoping to see whales, so it was disappointing. They did issue a free boarding ticket for the next time, but it only covers the boarding, and you have to pay for the trip to the location yourself. Due to scheduling conflicts, I had to give up on it. I think those who are planning to participate should consider their schedule in case they don't see any whales.

2月上旬に参加しました。クジラは見れずただクルーズして終わりました。
クジラを見たい！との思いで参加したので残念でした。
一応、次回乗船無料券の発行がありましたが、これ乗船のみで、現地迄は自腹との事。スケジュールの都合もあるので断念しました。
これから参加の方は見れない時の為の考慮して日程を組んだ方が良いと思います。

I read in the reviews that it could be far away or hard to see, so I planned the next day as a backup just in case I couldn't see anything. At first, the blowhole was far away, and I couldn't really understand what I was supposed to be looking at, but while I was eating, I saw a whale very close by. When I hurried outside, a mother and calf showed themselves to us. On the way back, I also saw a turtle, which was very lucky. I chose not to use the shuttle service and got off at Kakaako on the high bus and walked, but the breeze felt nice, and I was able to make good use of my time, so it was great.

口コミに遠かったり見られない事も多いと書いてあったので、見られなかった時の為に次の日を予備日として、計画をたてました。
はじめは潮吹きも遠く、言われたところを見てもよくわからなかったのですが、ご飯を食べていたら、すぐ近くにくじらが見えて、急いで外へ出たら親子で姿を見せてくれました。帰りにはカメも見られて、とてもラッキーでした。
送迎なしを選んで、ハイバスのカカアコで降りて歩いていきましたが、風が気持ち良くて時間も有効利用出来たので良かったです。

Tour is exactly as described. Our tour guide Larry was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and funny. He went out of his way for us. We chose this tour because it’s convenience of time, where most tours went all day.

It was a bus pickup at Hilton Grand Vacations. The woman who confirmed the reservation didn't understand any Japanese at all. We managed to grasp the meaning through some words, but those who only understand Japanese seemed confused. For tours with many Japanese reservations, it might be reassuring to have someone who can speak even a little.

Since the pickup time for the tour was a bit late, by the time we arrived at the boarding area, all the spots with a good view outside were taken. However, since it was a bit cold this season, we took seats indoors on the second floor and had lunch before going outside to take a look.

They also make announcements in English when a whale approaches, so you can stick to the glass window and watch (laughs). This time, it was a smaller whale, so we couldn't see it clearly, but we were able to see it nonetheless.

ヒルトングランドバケーションのバス駐車場ピックアップでした。
予約確認の女性は、全く日本語わかりません。
私たちは、単語などでなんとなく意味わかりましたが日本語しかわからない方は、戸惑ってました。日本人の予約が多いツアーは、少しでいいから話せる方だと安心できるかもと思いました。
ツアーの方は、迎えの時間が遅めのため
乗り場に着いた時は、外の眺めのよさそうなとこは全部埋まってました。
でも、この季節は、寒めなので二階の室内で席を取って昼食も食べてから
外に出て見に行っても大丈夫です。
ホエールが近づいたら放送もしてくれるので(英語)
ガラス窓にピタッてくっついて見ても見れます(笑)
今回は、小さめなのではっきり見えませんでしてが一応見ることできました

Since I went to Hawaii in February, I decided to go whale watching, which is something you can only do during this time of year.

I read many reviews saying that people didn't see any whales, so I boarded the boat with a mindset of "Well, it would be nice to see a whale if we do." However, my skeptical expectations were wonderfully betrayed, and I was able to encounter a mother and calf whale multiple times!! Their synchronized swimming was truly moving, and I absolutely recommend it! Thank you for a truly wonderful experience!

It was a valuable tour. Thank you!

ちょうど2月にハワイに行ったので、この時期しか見ることの出来ないホエールウォッチングに行く事にしました。

クジラに会えなかったという口コミもたくさん読みましたので、「まぁクジラが見れたらいいか」みたいな気持ちで船に乗り込みましたが…。
私の半信半疑の期待は見事に裏切られ、何度もクジラの親子に遭遇する事ができました！！
並んで泳ぐ姿は心から感動しましたし、絶対オススメします！
本当に素晴らしい経験をありがとうございました！

価値のあったツアーでした。ありがとうございました！

I was wondering if I wouldn't be able to see it until halfway through, but I was able to watch it towards the end. I'm glad I could see it because they searched for it until the very last minute. I can hardly speak any English, but the staff were kind, and I had a great time.

途中まで見れないかな？と思ったのですが、最後の方に見ることができました。時間ギリギリまで、探してくれたため、見ることができてよかったです。英語がほとんど話せないのですが、スタッフは優しく、楽しめました。

I signed up for my two sons who love sea creatures! We were able to see a whale right after we set off. I think we were very lucky to see it as a family. The kids were also thrilled, so I'm glad we participated!

海の生き物が大好きな息子二人のために申込みました！出発後すぐにくじらに会えました。
親子で見れたので、とてもラッキーだったと思います。子供たちも大喜びだったので参加してよかったです！

I was able to see a mother and baby whale together, with continuous spouting and jumping! The boat was also large, so it was comfortable to spend time on!

クジラが親子でいたのか、連続して潮吹きとジャンプが見れました！船も大きい為快適に過ごせよかったでふ！

I waited for the bus on the first day, but I was left behind. I left a voicemail, but I didn't get a response... I'm glad I was able to participate the next day, but I couldn't see the whales as well as I wanted from the photos. However, I felt good about the cruise! I thought it might be better if the duration was a little shorter.

バスに1日目待ってたのに、おいてかれてしまいました。
留守電いれたけど、連絡なく。。
翌日参加できたから良かったけど、、
クジラは写真見たいにはみれません。
クルーズするのは気分が良かったです！
時間もう少し短くても良いかなと思いました。

We participated as a family!
It was everyone's first time whale watching, and we had a wonderful experience encountering humpback whales jumping up close!
Thank you very much! ^_^

家族で参加しました！
みんな初めてのホエールウォッチングでしたが、間近でジャンプするザトウ鯨に出会う事ができ、素敵な経験になりました！
ありがとうございました^_^

In February 2015, I participated in a tour and completely forgot to leave a review.

I heard that the day before and the day before that, there were strong wind warnings, and the tours were canceled, but on the day I booked, it was held. Fortunately, I was able to encounter a pod of dolphins, which was amazing. However, February in Hawaii is really cold. I tend to get cold easily, and even with a wetsuit rental, the water was too cold. I didn't even have the courage to get in the water except for swimming with the dolphins.

In addition to the cruise, I enjoyed the hula dancing (even though I couldn't do it at all because it was too difficult), and the conversations with the crew were fun, but there was one thing. The pickup time was quite early, which I knew from the beginning, but I was surprised when I received a call to confirm the pickup time while it was still dark outside. While I appreciate the confirmation call, the timing was really too much. Plus, it's rare for the phone in my room to ring while traveling abroad, so it startled me. I wish they had mentioned it in advance if it was absolutely necessary. That's the only thing I still clearly remember even after five years.

2015年2月・・
すごく前に参加してすっかりレビューもせずにおりました。

前日・前々日が強風警報が出てて、ツアーも中止になったとのことでしたが
自分が予約した日は開催されました。
そして運よくイルカの群れにも遭遇出来てすごくよかったです。
ただ、2月のハワイってめっちゃ寒い。
元々寒がりなのもあるけれど、ウェットレンタルしても水が冷たすぎて。
イルカと泳いだ以外、水に入る勇気さえなかったです。

クルーズの他、フラダンスや(難しくてちっともできなかったけど)
クルーたちの会話も楽しかったですが一つだけ。
ピックアップの時間がかなり早かったのですが
それは最初から分かっていたのでいいのですが、それよりも前の暗いうちに
ピックアップ時間の確認TELなどが来たこと。
確認の連絡はありがたいけれど、時間がヤバすぎ。
しかも海外で旅行中に部屋の電話が鳴るってほとんどないのでまずびっくりするし。
必ず必要なら前もって言っててほしかったですね。
それだけが5年経った今もはっきり覚えてます。

The crew couldn’t have been more accommodating and fun! Lunch was delicious. Turtle spotting was fabulous. And the reef snorkel was an adventure to be remembered. Thanks for the memories!

I learned about the history of Hawaii, and the plants were explained in detail. In the long-awaited hula lesson, I was taught by the kumu hula, Brad Cooper, and it felt like a dream. I was also very satisfied with the beautiful lei making.

ハワイの歴史が学べ、植物も丁寧に説明していただきました。
念願のフラレッスンではクムフラのブラッド　クーパー先生に教えていただき夢のようでした。
レイメイクも素敵にできて大満足です。

This was just such a great experience. We got incredibly lucky with active whales during our trip. We saw two set of mothers with their calves. The calves breached multiple times and we even got to see one of the mothers breach! Even just the scenery during the sail up the coast was amazing. The crew was incredibly fun and nice, everyone was very accommodating. I would definitely recommend using this company for your whale tour.

Meeting a large mother and baby whale was truly moving. At the same time, I thought about how the approaching boats must be a nuisance for the mother whale caring for her newborn, which left me with somewhat mixed feelings. What is the ideal way for modern humans to connect with the natural world? While we understand this in our daily lives, we often don’t think deeply about it. I realized that we need to reconsider the power of humans and civilization that has even pushed the largest mammals in Earth's history, the whales, to the brink of extinction.

A beautiful world should remain beautiful.
A wonderful nature should remain as it is.
This tour taught me the preciousness of simply connecting lives.

大きなクジラの親子に会えたのはやはり感動がありました
と同時に生まれたばかりの子供の世話をしているお母さんクジラにとってはボートで近づいてくる人間は迷惑なんだろうなと思い、少々複雑な感情にもなりました。
自然界と現代人の繋がりかたの理想とはどんなものなのか。普段の生活では理解していても深くは考えないものですが、地球史上最大の哺乳類と言われるクジラさえも絶滅の危機に追いやってしまった人間の力、文明の威力を改めて考える必要があると実感しました。
綺麗な世界が綺麗なままで。
素晴らしい自然がありのままで。
命をただ繋ぐ尊さを教えてもらったツアーでした。

In late February, my husband and I visited Hawaii and wanted to do something Hawaiian, so we participated in this activity!

Most of the participants were Japanese, with a few foreigners mixed in. The boats going to the sandbar were separated into one for Japanese people only and another that included foreigners. Both boats had Japanese guides who were very good at speaking, and the locals were cheerful, making the experience enjoyable from the boat!

When I asked the guide to take photos at the sandbar, they even directed us on how to pose, capturing many wonderful pictures from various angles♡

The guide also helped us look for sea turtles, and we were able to see a lot of them!

During snorkeling, we could see the sea turtles up close! The weather was great, but the water was very cold once we got in.

When we returned to the boat, they had warm drinks prepared, so we could relax and enjoy sunbathing on board!

The hamburgers for lunch were huge, and since we could add our own toppings, it was amazing to customize them to our liking! I'm so glad we could do something truly Hawaiian♪♪

2月下旬に夫婦でハワイ旅行に訪れて
ハワイっぽいことをしたくて参加しました！

参加者は日本人の方が多く、その他の外国の方も
ちらほらいらっしゃって、サンドバーまで行く船は
日本人だけの船と外国人の方も混ざった船と分かれていました。
二つとも日本人のガイドさんがいらっしゃって、
そのガイドさんがすごく喋りがうまくて、
現地の方も明るくて船の中から楽しかったです！

サンドバーでガイドさんに写真を
お願いするとポージングまで指示してくださって
いろいろな角度から何枚も素敵な写真を
撮っていただきました♡


海亀もガイドさんも一緒に探してくださって
たくさんみることができました！

シュノーケリングでは海亀を間近で見れます！
ただ天気はすごく良かったのですが、
水に浸かるととても寒かったです。

船に戻ると暖かい飲み物なども用意
してくださってるので、船の上でも
のんびり日光浴を楽しめました！


お昼のハンバーガーも大きくて
セルフで具材を足して行くので
自分の好きなアレンジで食べる事ができて
最高でしたっっ！！
ハワイらしいことができてよかったです♪♪

I had very little experience with boarding a ship, but there were staff members who spoke Japanese, and the other staff were also kind, which made me feel very at ease. There was a wide variety of alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, which was enjoyable. Although the chances of seeing a whale were low, they searched diligently, and I was able to see its tail. I also got to see dolphins up close for a long time, which I didn't think would be possible. It was a very enjoyable plan.

船に乗る経験もほとんどありませんでしたが、日本語を話せるスタッフがいたり、他のスタッフも親切でとても安心して過ごせました。
アルコール類やソフトドリンクも豊富で楽しかったです。
鯨も確率は低いそうですか、熱心に探してくれ、尻尾を見ることができました。また、見れないと思っていたイルカを近くで長時間見れました。
とても楽しいプランでした。

I was satisfied to see them jumping and swimming with their families up close! It would be nice if we could choose items like a ballpoint pen or a T-shirt instead of a revenge ticket. The revenge is quite difficult.

かなり近くでジャンプや親子連れで泳ぐ姿も見れて満足！リベンジ券ではなく、ボールペンやTシャツかを選べると良い。リベンジはかなり難しい。

Great time would do it again. The only thing I would change is some of the items on the menu.
