Food was ok but experience was great! Happy we chose to spend our day with this crew

Tour Guide was amazing, so knowledgable about everything relating to the Missouri and WW2 and the history.

My family was overjoyed, but I was a bit disappointed because the whales were far away. The food was completely different from what I had expected... My cousin had a hard time helping out. The only good thing was that there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, which was a unique experience.

家族は大喜び、私は鯨が遠かったので少し残念でした涙ご飯も期待していたのとは全然違った、、、従姉妹は寄って介抱も大変だった。唯一良かったのはなかなか経験できない経験に、日本語の話せるスタッフがいたことでした。

It's perfect for movie lovers. The scenery from the films is right in front of you! It's a valuable experience! The botanical garden was also enjoyable with the guide's humor. Lunch can get crowded, but there were enough chairs for us to sit. At one point, we ran out of hot water for milk, and since the next tour time and dining area weren't in a restaurant, I was concerned about hygiene for the baby and didn't order. Also, there are no changing tables, but if you're well-prepared, it's fine for those with babies! You can sit for a long time without getting tired and enjoy it all the way to the end.

映画好きには最高です。映画でみた景色がまさに目の前に！貴重な体験ができます！また植物園もガイドさんのユーモアがある案内で楽しめました！ランチは混んでますが、椅子の数が十分あったので座れました。途中、ミルク用のお湯が足りなくなり、頼むにも次の見学の時間や、食事場所もレストラン？ではないので赤ちゃんにとっての衛生面が心配で頼みませんでした。またおむつ交換台もないですが、赤ちゃん連れの方はしっかり準備して行けば大丈夫です！座ってる時間が長いので疲れず、ゆったり最後まで楽しめます

We did the EarlyBird Breakfast Cruise on Jan. 22, 2020. It was wonderful. Easy to arrive and enjoy some breakfast before leaving. Food and drinks were well worth the price.
Shortly after leaving we saw the whale breaching amd we were all amazed.
Capt. Mike and crew did an amazing job.
Highly recommend!!!

What can I say. Any time I can surprise my wife and make her smile , especially after a long flight, is a great way to start a vacation. Met outside the gate as we got off the plane, put the Lai over my wife's head with a warm aloha , she then offered to guide us to baggage claim, which we passed on. She followed us from a distance and when I did come to a not sure point she guided us. For me great experience.

At first, there were no whales, so we enjoyed a leisurely cruise. The weather was nice, and it felt great to relax while taking in the views of the sea and mountains.

In the end, there was a rush of whale sightings! We all reacted to the captain's announcements of "Look in the direction of 3 o'clock!" and moved around the boat together. We were thrilled to see about three whales spouting water and showing their tails as they dove!

初めはクジラが現れなかったのでゆったりクルージング。お天気も良く海や山等、景色を眺めながらゆっくり過ごして気持ちよかったです。

最後にクジラさん出現ラッシュ！
５回くらい船長の「何時の方向に見えました！」と言うアナウンスに反応し乗客みんなで船上を移動。３頭くらいのクジラが塩を吹いたり、潜るのに尾ビレを見せたりする姿が見え感動しました！

It was a very enjoyable tour, but I think it depends on the weather! Since the weather wasn't very good, the sea looked beautiful and white whenever the sun peeked out. I was very satisfied to see three sea turtles while snorkeling!

とても楽しいツアーでしたが、お天気次第だと思います！
あまり天気が良くなかったので、たまにお日様が見えると海は白く綺麗です♪
シュノーケリングではウミガメに3匹も会えて大満足でした♪♪

This was my second time participating, and I had a great time. A friend who was joining for the first time also seemed to really enjoy it. The sandbar is beautiful no matter how many times you visit. I would like to participate again if the opportunity arises. Since it was my second time, I was also able to receive a small gift, which was nice.

2回目の参加でしたが、とても楽しく過ごせました。
初めての友人も一緒に参加しており、とても満喫した様子でした。
何度来ても綺麗なサンドバー。また機会があれば参加したいと思います。
私は2回目の参加ということもあり、粗品も頂けたので良かったです。

Although the guide mentioned that there would be no explanations in Japanese, the presenters at each attraction provided explanations in Japanese, which was helpful.
We chose the movie location tour, jungle exploration, and the Taste of Kualoa tour (a tour to see and taste Hawaii's agricultural products). Since it was our first time, I was wondering what it would be like, but these turned out to be quite enjoyable attractions.
There seem to be many other activities available as well, such as ATV rides, horseback riding, and zip-lining. I thought I would try different attractions next time I come.

The round-trip bus from Honolulu to the ranch was quite uncomfortable on the way there.
The air conditioning was too strong, making it cold, the seats were hard, and the background music was too loud. Since the pickup was at 7 AM, I couldn't even sleep on the bus in that situation.
However, the return bus was comfortable.

案内では日本語での説明はないとのことであったが、各アトラクションでの説明者は日本語で説明してくれて助かった。
私たちは映画ロケ地めぐり・ジャングル探検・テイストオブクアロアツアー（ハワイの農産物見学試食ツアー）をチョイス。初めてなのでどんなものかと思っていたら、これら結構楽しいアトラクションばかりであった。
他には四輪バギー・乗馬・ジップラインなど多くのアクティビティも体験できるようだ。
次回来たときは違うアトラクションも体験しようと思った。

ホノルルから牧場までの行き帰りバスによるものであったが、行きのバスの環境は最悪であった。
冷房効かせすぎで寒かったし、座席も硬くBGMもうるさすぎ、朝７時ピックアップなのでバスの中で寝ていきたくてもそんな状況になれず。
ただ、帰りのバスは快適であった。

超好玩的

大家ㄧ定要來參加

I think this is all about luck. Just when we had given up on seeing whales today and were on our way back to the port, an American woman we had been talking with found a whale spouting in the distance! When we shouted, the boat went closer to the whale...

It's strange that even with more than ten crew members on deck standing by to look for whales, the crew couldn't find any. I hope the whale spotting crew will try a little harder next time!

こればかりは運だと思います。
もう今日はクジラは無理だとあきらめて港へ帰る途中に、私たちファミリーと
一緒にお話ししていたアメリカ人女性が遠くで潮を吹くクジラを見つけました！　私たちが声を上げたので、それから船がクジラの近くに行ってくれたりしましたが。。。

デッキ上にボートクルーも10人以上もクジラ探しでスタンバイしているのに
クルーがクジラを見つけられなかったのが不思議です。
次回はクジラ発見隊クルーにもうちょっと頑張ってほしいです！

This is a must-visit place when you go to Hawaii! The slides didn't have long lines, and I was able to ride all of them! They were thrilling slides that you won't find in pool facilities in Japan. The staff's response was really good as well. When I lost something, they helped me look for it until it was found. Since it's located in a vast area quite far from the airport, I recommend using a shuttle bus for those going there! It was really convenient to be dropped off right in front of the hotel!

ハワイに行ったら必ず行くべき場所です！スライダーも長時間並ぶことがなく、全てのスライダーを乗ることができました！日本のプール施設にはないようなスリル満点のスライダーばかりでした。またスタッフの方の対応が本当に良かったです。落とし物をした際に見つかるまで一緒に探してくださりました。空港近くのかなり郊外の広大な土地にあったので、行く方はバスの送迎をつけるのをオススメします！ホテルの前まで送迎してくれるのは、かなり楽でした！

Last year, a friend made a reservation with Beltora for me, and this time I booked it myself!

The sandbar had high water levels, so we couldn't walk on it, but the weather was perfect and we had a great time! Last year, I encountered a sea turtle swimming on the surface, and while I didn't see one this year, I was happy to spot two turtles stuck among the corals while snorkeling! Captain Bruce's staff are always polite and fun, and they clearly let you know when someone spots a sea turtle while snorkeling.

Regarding what to bring, most items available for rent on-site, except for wetsuits and snorkeling masks, are paid rentals, so I recommend bringing seasickness medication and anything else you're used to from Japan. I participated in February, which is the rainy season, but the day I went was sunny! However, the day before it rained heavily, so it's best to check the weather for your participation day. If there's a forecast for heavy rain, it can be too cold to enter the water, and of course, snorkeling wouldn't be possible, which would make spending time on the boat a waste of money. If you have a date with free cancellation and there's a clear heavy rain forecast, I recommend canceling.

The shuttle bus to the meeting place was over 10 minutes late for two consecutive years. This is common in Hawaii, so it's best to arrive early and wait for at least 15 minutes before the meeting time!

This time the weather was sunny, but there were occasional clouds, and the sea was constantly cold and shivering. When playing at the sandbar or snorkeling, it's recommended to leave valuables on the boat and minimize your belongings, bringing only a small amount of cash and your smartphone in a waterproof case.

This time, I added a photo session for an extra $80 because we struggled to take good pictures ourselves last year. The Japanese staff from Captain Bruce always provide fun explanations and host the event, and this time it was a male staff member who took photos in between activities. There were plenty of opportunities and timing for photos, but the technical skills were completely amateur, and I don't think it's worth the $80, so I would recommend skipping it. While I was very satisfied with Captain Bruce's tour itself, the photo session was just one staff member (an amateur) taking pictures with a good camera. Many photos were shadowy or unclear, which was disappointing.

I plan to go to Hawaii next year and the year after, and I intend to participate in Captain Bruce's tour each time, so I recommend booking with Beltora, who has great customer service! The photos I uploaded were taken with our own smartphones!

去年は友人がベルトラさんから予約してくれ、２回目の今回は自分でベルトラさんから予約しました！

サンドバーは水位が高く歩けませんでしたが、最高の天気で楽しかったです♪去年参加した際は水面を泳ぐ海ガメに出会えて、今年はいなかったですが、シュノーケリング中にサンゴに挟まってる海ガメを２匹見られて幸せでした♪キャプテンブルースはいつもスタッフが丁寧で楽しく、シュノーケリング中も誰かが海ガメを発見したら、分かりやすく教えてくれます♪

持ってきた方が良い物の記載で、現地貸し出し有りの物はウエットスーツとシュノーケリングマスク以外はほぼ有料レンタルなので、船酔いの為の酔い止めとか、日本で飲み慣れている物を持参する事をおススメします⭐︎私が参加した２月は雨季ですが、私の参加日は晴天でした♪でも前日はドシャ降りの大雨で催行だったので、参加日の天気は気にした方が良いです⭐︎大雨だと、海に寒過ぎて入れず、もちろんシュノーケリングも出来ないので、船の上で過ごすだけなのはお金が無駄過ぎます。無料キャンセル出来る日程であきらかに大雨予報であれば、キャンセルをおススメします。

集合場所へのお迎えのバスは２年連続10分以上遅れて来ました。ハワイあるあるなので、集合時間前に集合して、15分は待ちましょう！

今回は晴天でしたが、時々雲がかかり、海は常に冷たく震えてました。サンドバーで遊んだり、シュノーケリング中は荷物は船に置くので貴重品や荷物は少なくし、少しの＄とスマホ等を防水ケースに入れて身に付ける事をおススメします！

今回、プラス$80も付けてフォトセッション付きを申し込みました。去年自分達だけではうまく写真が撮れなかったからです。毎回キャプテンブルースの日本人スタッフが楽しい説明、司会進行してくれて、今回は男性で楽しかったのですが、その人が合間に撮影をするというものでした。写真を撮る時間やタイミングは沢山あったのですが、技術面が完全に素人で$80の価値は絶対にないので、申し込まない方が良いと思います。キャプテンブルースのツアー自体は本当に満足していますが、フォトセッションはいちスタッフ(素人)が良いカメラで撮るだけです。影だらけや誰か分からない写真が多く、残念でした。

来年も再来年もハワイに行く予定で、毎回キャプテンブルースのこのツアーに参加するつもりで、申し込みは対応が良いベルトラさんをおススメします♪アップした写真は自分達のスマホで撮影したぶんです！

I was really looking forward to it, as the brochures and TV commercials promised that we would see whales right in front of us... But when I strained my eyes, it was just barely visible from a distance. It didn't show up in the photos. Even when we spotted them far away, we didn't get any closer... and that was the end of it.

The staff were kind, but... while there may have been whales, considering the price, I was a bit disappointed.

パンフレットもテレビのコマーシャルも鯨が目の前で見られる様なものばかりですごーく楽しみにしていましたが…
目を凝らしてやっと…くらいの遠さ。
写真にはうつりませんでした。
遠くに見つけても近づいて行く事は無く…終了。

スタッフの方は親切でしたが…
確かに鯨は居たかもしれませんが…
お値段を考えるとちょっとガッカリでした。

I went on a weekday, and there were no wait times for attractions like the water slides at all. The water slides are located at a high position, so climbing the stairs was quite challenging. On the day I visited, it was less crowded than I expected, allowing me to relax and enjoy my time. I purchased a standard ticket, which included unlimited drinks, so I could go for drinks whenever I wanted, which was great. There was free time from 10:30 to 15:00, and it was enough time to have a fulfilling experience!

平日に行きましたが、ウォータースライダーなどのアトラクションの待ち時間は全くありませんでした。
ウォータースライダーは基本位置が高い場所にあるので、階段で登るのが結構大変でした。
私が行った日は、思っていた以上に閑散としていたので、ゆったりと過ごすことができました。スタンダードのチケットを購入しましたが、飲み物の飲み放題がついており好きな時間に飲み物を飲みに行けたのがよかったです。
10:30〜15:00まで自由時間でしたが、十分な時間で、充実した時間を過ごせました！

All the young men took very good care of my friend in a wheelchair. they made her feel welcomed. The dancers were grate and the food was fun (they could have done better on the desert). the food line went fast.
The bathrooms could have been a little better.

Cocktail cruise while enjoying the sunset.
You can enjoy comfortable sailing while experiencing the sunset and breeze in Honolulu.
It's very photogenic, so don't forget your camera.
Since it departs from Kewalo Basin, you can park your car right in front, and you won't get wet like you might when boarding from the beach.

One of my biggest fears is a shark. The idea of this excursion terrified me but When in Rome, right? Hawaii is the perfect place to face your fears and do something you’d never normally do. The guys on the boat helped ease my fears and made the experience so incredible. I would recommend this excursion to anyone. We saw 6 sharks at one time and being that close to a shark was one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. We spent about 40 min in the water and it was the perfect amount of time. The fact that only a small number of people can go on the excursion means more time in the water. This is a must do on the North Shore! Bring your GoPro!

It was a high-energy and fun tour from start to finish. We were able to see many dolphins swimming, and although it was just a little, we also got to see sea turtles and whales! My mother, who is in her 70s, didn't push herself from the beginning and signaled for help right after jumping in, so the crew stayed with her, which made us feel reassured. The elementary school children also had a great time playing with the crew, jumping in and splashing around. Since it requires a lot of energy and starts early in the morning, I think it's better to sign up with some extra time to spare. I recommend that those who are anxious take motion sickness medication beforehand. A few years ago, I participated in a dolphin program as well, but the university program is a bit more challenging and has more content. I later went to the office to receive a souvenir bag. It was a wonderful memory to fully enjoy the great nature of Hawaii.

最初から最後までテンション高く楽しいツアーになりました。
イルカもたくさん泳いでいる様子が見れましたし、ウミガメもちょっとだけどクジラも見ることができました！
70代の母は最初から無理をせず、飛び込んだ直後にヘルプ合図したので、クルーの方がずっと付き添ってくれて安心しました。
小学生の子供たちもクルーの方たちと一緒に飛び込んだり氷かけしたりとたくさん遊んでもらって満足していました。
朝も早くかなり体力も使うので、余裕を持って申し込んだ方がいいと思います。不安な人は酔い止めを飲んでおくのをお勧めします。
数年前にイルカ中学にも参加しましたが、大学の方がちょっと難易度が上がり内容も充実しています。
後日オフィスに行って記念品のバックを受け取りました。
ハワイの大自然を満喫できてとてもいい思い出になりました。

I'm grateful that the captain tells us which direction to look for the whales. In fact, there were several whales in that direction, but we could only see their dorsal fins, which was disappointing.

A small boat was quite close to the whales, so even though it was a bit rocky, being in a smaller boat might allow you to feel the size and power of the whales more.

Breakfast was delicious, but I felt it was a bit pricey for what you get...

クジラがいると船長さんが何時の方向に見えますと言ってくれるのでありがたいです。
実際その方向にクジラが何頭かいましたが背鰭しか見えず残念でした｡。

小さなボートがかなりクジラに接近していたので、揺れがキツくても小さなボートの方がクジラの大きさや迫力は感じられるかもしれません。

朝食は美味しかったですが、お値段の割にはお高く感じました…

This was a great tour! Our driver/guide had lots of fun stories about history and culture of everything we saw. It was a good amount of time at each place.

The USS Missouri is great. Take the guided tour! Our guide had some great stories. I also enjoyed having time to explore on my own.

The USS Arizona Memorial and other memorials were very humbling. So grateful for the men and women who sacrificed their lives that day so I can enjoy the freedom I now have. It was quite humbling to stand over the tomb of those men in the USS Arizona. I also enjoyed the Walk of Honour. My only regret was not having enough time to explore the other things in and around that site.

This was a great starter tour to show me what I might like to do next time. The company from booking to resort pick-up and drop off to not having to navigate the traffic made it well worth the investment. I highly recommend this for everyone. I learned a lot!

I also greatly appreciated the poncho to use as we had rain off and on all day. Unexpected but awesome bonus!

This time it was rainy, so we couldn't see any whales. It's a natural occurrence, so there's nothing we can do about it, but it's disappointing.

I'll try again next time.

今回は雨で、ホエールも観れませんでした。
自然なものなので仕方ありませんが、残念でした。

次回再チャレンジします。

I had a great time with the thrilling roller coaster-class attractions. However, it was disappointing and confusing that I couldn't buy a ticket for standing surfing without showing my passport, even though bodyboarding was okay. Who brings their passport to the pool?

ジェットコースタークラスのスリリングなアトラクションで、とても楽しめました。しかしボディーボードは、OK なのにスタンディングサーフィンするのにパスポートを提示しないとチケットが買えなかったので、残念だし意味がわからん。プールにパスポート持って行くやついるか？

According to the reviews, it seemed that only about 30% of people were able to see them, so I didn't have high expectations, and it turned out to be true. After that, I received advice that if I wanted to see whales, Maui or the Big Island would be better, and I thought it was rare to see them off the coast of Waikiki Beach on Oahu.

口コミ情報では約3割程度の人しかが観ることができたようでしたので、あまり期待はしていませんでしたが、その通りになってしまいました。その後クジラを観るなら、マウイ島かハワイ島が良いとアドバイスを受け、オアフ島のワイキキビーチの沖合で観えること自体が稀ではないかと思いました。

Kualoa Ranch is beautiful and probably my favorite place on Oahu. There is so much to do there! This is a bus tour that offers an awesome experience driving through the heart of the ranch and listening to the guides commentary about the different movies that were filmed there. The bus makes multiple stops along the way so you can get out, walk around, and take pictures as you please. Overall good tour. The guide was very knowledgable and made it fun. Looking for something to do on Oahu, check out Kualoa!

This shark cage tour was awesome. Started off the morning with a nice north shore cruise to the cage drop spot. The crew is very laid back and give you all the information you need along the way. Very friendly and knowledgeable and answered all and any questions we had. Spent a good chunk of time in the cage and saw a few different sharks able to collect some pretty sweet GoPro footage. Even saw some whales along the way and you are able to hear them singing underwater which is pretty cool. The boat is spacious and comfortable and they provide bottled water. They also have a fresh water hose so you can rinse off when you are done in the cage. This tour was 100% safe and professionally ran. I would recommend it for anyone looking to have a good time for a few hours on the island.

We have a 5-year-old, so we couldn't go diving, which is why we had to take a submarine to see the underwater world. The boat that takes you to the submarine was cool, and my son, who loves vehicles, was very satisfied to see the moment the submarine surfaced and when the boat docked next to it! After that, we boarded the submarine and began our dive. The visibility wasn't as clear as advertised, but we saw four sea turtles around a sunken ship, which was amazing! The captain was kind enough to go back and forth a few times to help us see the turtles. For the Japanese commentary, you need to set the headphone channel to 1. I was a bit flustered at first because it was in Chinese. Also, as mentioned in reviews, it was cold, so a light windbreaker is necessary. The crew was very friendly. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

うちは５歳がいてダイビングなどできないので潜水艦に乗らないと海の中は見れませんでした。潜水艦まで行く船もかっこいいし、潜水艦が浮上する瞬間やボートが横付けする瞬間など見れて乗り物大好き息子は大満足！その後潜水艦に乗りいざ潜水開始。なかなか透明度は広告くらいありませんでしたが沈没船にホヌが4匹もいて最高でした！ホヌを見るためにキャプテンが何回か行き来してくれて優しかったです。日本語解説は、ヘッドホンのチャンネルを1に設定が必要です。最初中国語であせりました。また、寒いという口コミ通り寒かったので薄いシャカシャカなど必要です。クルーの対応も親切でした。素敵な体験ありがとうございました。

I parked at Pier 5.6 an hour ago, thinking there was a whale watching booth there, but it turned out that the Star of Honolulu was a five-minute walk from there, so I was cutting it close on time. The whale watching at Pier 5.6 is operated by a different company called Atlantis, so be careful about that. The parking fee is a maximum of $30, and I paid $27, so it wasn't much different. Once on board, we listened to the explanation and then went outside to look for whales, but in the end, we couldn't find any. The scenery was amazing.

1時間前からピア5.6の駐車場に停めてそこにもホエールウォッチングのブースがありそこかと思っていたらスターオブホノルルはそこから徒歩5分のところだったので時間ギリギリでした。
ピア5.6のホエールウォッチングはアトランティスという別会社なので注意が必要です。
駐車場はMAX 30ドルで、私は27ドルだったので対して変わりませんでした。いざ乗船して説明聞いてから外に出てクジラを探しましたが結局クジラはみつかりませんでした。景色は最高でした。
