I went for the first time, and it was so much fun with an intensity that you don't find in Japan!
The wave pool had incredible waves, and I couldn't move forward at all.
It was on a completely different level compared to the wave pools in Japan.

If I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate!

Next time, I want to go when it's hot!
(The weather was bad and cold~!!)

初めて行きましたが、日本にはない激しさで、とても楽しかったです♪
波のプールが半端ない波で、全然前に進めませんでした。
日本の波のプールと桁違いでした。

またハワイに行くことがあったら、是非参加したいです。

今度は暑いときに！
（お天気が悪くて寒かった~！！）

We participated as a family of four (two children, a middle schooler and a high schooler). It was a one-day course, but since it was only about four hours in total from 10 AM to around 2 PM, we felt like we could have used more time. In the morning, we arrived at the meeting point on time, and a large bus came to pick us up. We chose a plan to do bodyboarding at the location, which seemed to be especially fun for the kids.

夫婦と子供2人（中学生・高校生）で参加。1日のコースでしたが、10時から2時ごろまでの実質4時間だったので、もっと時間があればと感じました。朝は集合場所に時間通り、大型バスが迎えにきました。現地ではボディーボードをするプランにしたので、それが子供たちには特に楽しかったようです。

I participated with my child. The staff were very accommodating, and we had a great time. During snorkeling, we were able to see many beautiful fish, which was an amazing experience. However, it was unfortunate that the cloudy sky made the sea not shine as brightly as it does in pictures. Lastly, the BBQ we had on the boat was delicious, and we made wonderful memories. I highly recommend this for couples to join.

親子で参加しました。
スタッフの方の対応も良く、とても楽しかったです。
シュノーケリングでは、綺麗な魚をたくさん見ることができすごくいい体験ができました。
しかし、あいにくの曇り空で、海が本に載っているように白く輝いて見えなかったのが残念でした。
最後に船で食べたBBQもおいしく、いい思い出ができました。
カップルの方にぜひ参加してもらいたいです。

Swimming while holding onto a dolphin was amazing, and my wife was thrilled! If I could wish for anything, it would be to play with the dolphins a bit more! Since most of the explanations are in English, I think those who don't understand English might miss out on some of the fun.

If you're looking for a guaranteed chance to see dolphins and swim with them, you should definitely give it a try!

イルカにつかまっての泳ぎは最高、嫁さんは大喜び！
欲を言えばもう少しイルカと戯れることができたらいいなー！
英語での説明がほとんどの為、英語が分からない方は楽しさ半減するのでは？

確実にイルカに会えて、一緒に泳げるポイントとしては、一度は参加してみては！！

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Capt. Jon and crew. As a sailor, my enjoyment was enhanced by Capt. Jon's tales of building the vessel and sailing itr from the Caribbean to Hawaii. He is justly proud having built a beautiful and very comfortable boat. As hoped, we were able to watch whales within sight of the beautiful Hawaiian coast and also enjoyed some great sailing. Great trip, great boat and great crew and great value!

We had a great time on this cruise/snorkel activity. The staff on the boat were friendly and knowledgeable. The snorkeling on the reef was awesome with lots of colorful corals and many different fish. We saw a turtle in the water while we were snorkeling and followed it for awhile. We played water volleyball on the sandbar and it was lots of fun. The boat stopped at a spot where there are green turtles and we saw lots of them. The guitar serenade during lunch was a nice touch. I would recommend this cruise to others.

I was able to see wild dolphins, sea turtles, and even whales! The staff were all very nice, and I felt safe and enjoyed myself. I would like to participate again.

野生のイルカ、ウミガメ、そしてクジラさんまで見ることが出来ました！スタッフの皆さんもとてもいい人達ばかりで
安心して楽しむことができました。
また参加したいです。

I took my 11 and 15 year old on the cruise. We paid for the top deck with the lobster and steak and with a window seat. We all had a great time. Food was very good, view was excellent, and the ride was smooth. We couldn't have asked for a better way to spend our last night in wonderful Hawaii!!

I was hesitant whether or not to go to the USS Missouri while visiting Pearl Harbor because we did not have a full day to spend there. I am glad I did. We did the tour on our own, which I would recommend if you are on a time restraint as we were. We were able to stop and listen to some of the guides as they were communicating with their groups and overall had a great experience for the cost.

I participated in whale watching during my mother and aunt's first trip to Hawaii, as it was the season for it. If you're expecting the spectacular jumps often seen in whale photos, you might be disappointed. However, if you approach it with the mindset of leisurely enjoying a cruise in Hawaii, you might feel lucky and satisfied to see some whales as a bonus.

They made sure we could see the whales well by moving around to chase them, and with lunch included, I think the price is reasonable.

I chose this tour because it was offered in Japanese, and while there were Japanese announcements during the cruise, it was disappointing that the staff's explanations about the whales right after departure were only in English.

母と叔母の初めてのハワイ旅行でホエールウォッチングのシーズンだったので参加しました
よくクジラの写真であるような　豪快なジャンプを期待していたらだめです。
ハワイのクルーズをのんびり楽しむくらいの気持ちで参加すれば、おまけにクジラが見られてラッキーと満足できるかも

ちゃんとクジラが良く見られるように、クジラを追いかけ移動もしてくれたし、ランチもついてこの値段だったらＯＫなのではないでしょうか

ただ、日本語対応コースだったので参加したのですが、航行中のテープアナウンスは日本語もありましたが、出航直後のスタッフのクジラの説明など英語のみだったのが残念でした

I saw the tail fin while the water was splashing and the back was moving. Considering that there are times when you can't see anything at all, I think I was lucky, but it still feels unsatisfying if you can't see the whole jump. Even though the time is long, around 2 to 3 hours, it can get sleepy since there isn't much movement. It might be nice for enjoying a leisurely time on the sea.

潮吹きと背中が動いているところ、尾びれが見えました。全く見えないこともあることを考えるとラッキーだったのだと思いますが、やはりジャンプなど全体が見れないと物足りないです。時間が２~３時間と長い割に、特に移動をしないので眠くなります。のんびり海の上の時間を楽しむにはいいかも。

The tour and the tour bus were excellent. We got tickets to the Arizona shuttle/tour as advertised and the driver was fun and informative. Worth the price for the "front of the line" tickets at the Arizona. Family of 6 really enjoyed the experience and it was the right duration for the youngest (5).

The instructions for pickup at 635am were vague enough to cause a little confusion for us because the hotel where we were picked up is closed and under renovation. And the point of contact number on the voucher was not answered at that time of the morning to make sure we were at the correct location. A little "personal attention to detail" giving more information would have gone a long way to make the pickup less stressful. This is our only complaint... minor.

This was my second time participating. Last year, I joined with three friends and was so impressed by the beauty of the ocean that I wanted my boyfriend, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, to see it too, so I participated with him this time.

Since it was February, which is winter, I felt that the ocean wasn't as beautiful as it was during the summer when I participated last time. I thought the season might not be the best for me, but my boyfriend, who was participating for the first time, was amazed by the beautiful sea.

Especially since I'm not very good at swimming, I was moved by the snorkeling experience where, even if you can't swim well, you can still see the beautiful corals and the colorful fish swimming around.

The staff on this tour had such high energy and kept us entertained throughout. So, if you're looking to have a fun time with a group or just want to enjoy some lively company, this is definitely the right choice. Even if you go alone, I think you'll have a great time!

２度目の参加です。
去年、友人３人と参加し、海の綺麗さに感動したので、初めてのハワイの彼にも是非、その美しさを見てほしかったので彼と一緒に参加しました。
今回は2月という冬場だったので、前回夏場に参加したときより海の綺麗さがなく、私にとってはちょっぴりイマイチ季節が悪かったかなって思っていましたが、初参加の彼は美しい海に感動していました。
特に、あまり泳ぎは得意なほうではないのですが、シュノーケリングで泳げなくても美しい珊瑚と群がる綺麗なお魚が見れるので感動です。
こちらのツアーは、スタッフの方々のテンションがとても高く、始終楽しませてくれます。なので、わいわいしたい人やグループでの参加なら盛り上がることは間違いないでしょうし、一人での参加でも楽しめそうです。

The tour guide was a wonderful Japanese lady who was very kind.

It was a lucky day; I was able to swim with dolphins (although they were a bit far away), see whales, and swim very close to turtles.

On the way back, I was thrilled to see a larger dolphin that rarely appears!

The lunch burger was really delicious, and those who wanted to could also enjoy kayaking, making for a very fun experience.

The local guides and hula dance instructors were also very warm and wonderful people, creating great memories.

There were couples, solo travelers, and groups of two girls, among others.

The boat swayed a bit, so it's better to take motion sickness medication!

I highly recommend this tour!!

ツアーのガイドさんも日本人の素敵なお姉さんで、とても親切でよかった。

その日はラッキーデーで、イルカとも泳げたし（ちょっと遠かったけど）クジラも見れて、カメともとても近くで一緒に泳ぐことができました。

帰りがけにたまにしか現れない大きめのイルカも見ることができて感動！！

途中のランチのハンバーガーがとってもおいしかったり、カヤックも希望者は乗せてもらえてとても楽しく過ごすことができました。

現地のガイドサンやフラダンスの先生たちもとても温かく素敵な人で、いい思い出ができました。

カップル、一人旅、女の子二人組みいろいろな方がいました。

船は少し揺れるので酔い止め飲んでおいたほうがBETTER！

おススメのツアーです！！

The dolphins were incredibly cute, and it was so much fun to hold onto their dorsal fins and give them kisses! Although the time was short, it was truly a valuable experience that moved me. I also bought photos separately, which became a wonderful keepsake. It was so healing.

Sea Life Park has various shows, and the dolphin show was creatively arranged and very impressive. It was amazing to see the instructor riding on top of a dolphin like a surfboard! When I come to Oahu again, I want to visit Sea Life Park and touch the dolphins again.

イルカがすごくかわいくて、背びれにつかまったりキスをしたりすごく楽しかったです！！
時間は短いですが、本当に貴重な体験で感動しました。
写真も別売りで買ったのですが、すごく良い記念になりました。癒されます。
シーライフパークにはいろんなショーがやってて、
イルカショーは工夫をこらしてあって見ごたえがありました☆
イルカの上にインストラクターがサーフボードのように乗っているのがすごかったです！
オアフにきたらまたシーライフパークに来てイルカに触りたいです。

This was a very pleasant surprise for the rest of our group who did not expect this welcome in Hawaii. The person greeting us at the airport welcomed each one of us individually and was then prepared to take numerous photos in a suitable location outside the airport arrival area. She then also made sure that we get to our prebooked bus on time. Definitiely worth it especially for 1st timers and for special events. If you want to make your hliday in Hawaii something to remember, start with a lei welcome right at the airport, it puts everyone in the right mood no matter how long the flight.

While it was a very successful trip, viewing is still somewhat limited. I love your having a professional photographer on board who got us great pictures of the whales. I would like to be able to get a flashdrive or have the pictures emailed to me for printing on higher quality paper. But overall a very good experience.

Everyone was extremely helpful. My husband and I were directed to our table right away. When we decided to go up deck for the view we went back to our table and had our salads waiting for us. The lobster was delicious and they even helped crack it open. The entertainment was fun and engaging and when it came to disembark the ship, it was fast and painless...no line! My favorite part was the view of Honolulu and Waikiki at sunset.

I went on Captain Bob's Snorkeling Adventure with 4 friends last week and we all agreed that it was the BEST day we spent in Hawaii. The crew was FANTASTIC; fun, entertaining, knowledgeable, laid back... perfect!

The ocean volleyball and snorkeling at our own reef was a welcome change from the crowds in Waikiki.

I highly recommend this trip to everyone visiting Oahu! We have all decided to bring our kids and do this trip again on our next visit to the island.

Thanks to Daniel-son, Jenner, Macho Taco, Kelly and the rest of the crew for a perfect day!

Love,
The Colorado Girls

The last time I used this service, I only saw a breach at the very end, but this time it was amazing!! After departing and finishing breakfast at the buffet, when I went out on deck, one of the crew members told me, "There’s a whale over there." I hurriedly called my family out to the deck, and there were three pairs of mother and baby whales surrounding our boat.

For over 30 minutes, we could see whales in every direction. The crew was excitedly saying, "It's rare to see this many. Plus, the baby whale is breaching multiple times." There was a Japanese staff member among the Navatek crew, so after the English explanation, they translated it into Japanese, which helped us understand a lot.

Relatives who went on another tour the next day said they only saw a tail once. Whether you encounter whales or not is a matter of luck, but the view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from Navatek is very beautiful. I definitely recommend it as a cruising experience.

　以前利用した際は最後の最後にブリーチングが見えただけでしたが、今回は最高！！
出発して朝食のバイキングを食べ終わり、デッキに出たらクルーの一人が「あっちにクジラがいるよ。」と教えてくれました。急いで家族を呼んでデッキに出たら、三組もの親子クジラが私たちの船を囲んでいました。
それから３０分以上どの方向にいても、クジラが見える状態。
クルーも「こんなに見れるのは珍しいよ。しかも赤ちゃんクジラがブリーチングを何度もしているなんて。」と興奮気味に語っていました。
ナバテックのクルーの中に日本人スタッフがいたので、英語の説明のあと日本語に翻訳してくれたので色んなことがわかりました。
次の日に他のツアーで行った親戚は尻尾が一度だけしか見れなかったと言っていました。
クジラと出会えるかどうかは運次第ですが、ナバッテックから見るワイキキやダイアモンドヘッドはとてもきれいです。
クルージングも兼ねて是非おすすめします。

The staff were very entertaining, and my family had a great time. The sea was beautiful and felt amazing. I was very satisfied with the delicious lunch. However, I got too carried away and forgot that I had my phone in my pocket, which ended up getting submerged in water. I advise anyone participating to be very careful.

スタッフの皆さんがとても面白く家族で楽しめました。海はキレイでめちゃくちゃ気持ちよかったです。昼食がとてもおいしく満足しました。しかし浮かれすぎてポケットの中に携帯を入れているのを忘れていて水没させてしまいました。参加する方はくれぐれもご注意ください。

We participated as a family.
The sea was rough, so it was very rocky.
Many people were feeling unwell.
I recommend bringing motion sickness medication.
There was a Japanese staff member, but their service was not very attentive, which was disappointing.
It was great to see a lot of whales.

家族で参加しました。
海が荒れていたので、とても揺れました。
気分が悪くなっている人が多かったです。
酔い止めを持参する事をすすめます。
日本人のスタッフの方がいましたが、あまり丁寧な対応ができていませんでした。それが残念でした。
鯨は、たくさん見れて良かったです。

The weather wasn't that great, so snorkeling was honestly chilling to the bone! But seeing the sea turtles was amazing! The sandwiches served on the boat were really delicious♪ The sandbar was also impressive~! It's definitely worth a visit.

天気がたいして良くなかったので、シュノーケルは正直鳥肌たつほど寒い！
でも海がめみれて感動！
船上でだされるサンドイッチとかとっても美味しい♪
サンドバーも感動~！一見の価値ありです。

At a depth of 30 meters, I was able to see four turtles. I had some difficulty taking photos from inside the submarine, but since opportunities to ride a submarine are rare, I definitely think you should experience it! Even on the boat to the point where you transfer to the submarine, the deck on the second floor is refreshing, and if you're lucky, you might see a whale!

水深３０ｍで、カメに４匹も会えました。やや艦内からの撮影がうまくできませんでしたが、なかなか潜水艦に乗れる機会はないので、是非、体験したら良いと思います！潜水艦に乗り移る地点までの船上でも、２階でデッキが爽快で、運が良ければ、クジラに会えます！

The satisfaction may be significantly influenced by the weather and the tides (which is natural since it's the sea), but viewing the island from the sea was very refreshing! The captain and everyone else were such fun and wonderful people! The food we had on the boat was delicious!

天候や海の満ち引きで満足度がかなり左右されるかもしれません（海なので当然ですが）でも、海側から島を見るのもとても新鮮！キャプテンをはじめ皆さんとても楽しく素敵な人たちでよかったです！船の上で頂いたご飯もおいしかったーー！

The greeter was friendly, informative and extremely helpful. She was able to answer all our questions and helped us through the airport and to our transportation. We felt very special getting the leis while the other people on the plane just walked by with no one there to greet them.

On February 4, 2011, I participated in a whale watching tour with a friend and my friend's mother, making it three of us.

I had joined a dinner cruise on the Star of Honolulu last summer, so this was my second time on this ship.

Since the season and time of day were different from my last visit, I was deeply moved by the view of Waikiki and the lush Diamond Head from the sea.

Even when I thought I could enjoy this scenery without seeing any whales, a whale appeared, and I was further touched to see dolphins swimming alongside the whale, playing together.

I would love to book a tour with Alan1 again.

Thank you for the wonderful memories!

2011年2月4日に友人と友人のお母さまと私という３人でホエールウォッチングに参加しました。

私は昨年の夏、スターオブ・ホノルル号でディナークルーズに参加したので、この船は２回目の乗船でした。

前回とは季節も時間帯が違うので、海からのワイキキや緑の多いダイヤモドヘッドの眺めに大変感動しました。

クジラが見えなくてもこの景色で十分楽しめたなぁと思っていたら、クジラが現れ、さらにイルカもクジラと遊ぶように一緒に泳ぐ姿が見られて心から感動し、癒されました。

またalan1でツアーを予約したいなぁと思いました。

良い思い出をありがとうございました！

Our travel agent suggested this tour as a great way to see Pearl Harbor and downtown Honolulu, and she was right on the money! Our guides were friendly and very informative sharing lots of detail, Pearl Harbor was moving and very special, and the USS Missouri was impressive. This is a great tour, though you spend a lot of time on the shuttle while going through Honolulu

I participated in the morning cruise, but I didn't see any whales. I immediately used the re-participation ticket I received and joined the afternoon cruise, where I was thrilled to see whales. I think that in terms of season, March to April might be better for seeing young whales as they are growing and easier to spot.

午前のクルーズに参加しましたが、クジラは見えず。
頂いた再参加の券を直ちに利用して、昼のクルーズに参加したところ、クジラを見る事ができ感激しました。
季節的には、３-４月の方が、子供のクジラが成長していて見やすいのではないでしょうか～

I participated in the afternoon session on January 15 (Saturday). The weather was not just sunny, but perfectly clear. The sunlight was so strong that it was quite hot, so even when I got into the water, it wasn't too cold. There were many participants, over 40? It was fully booked. We saw a lot of green sea turtles, and the sandbar was just exposed due to the low tide. The tour staff mentioned it was the first time they had seen such a low tide. The staff's service was good, and I was particularly impressed by a lively woman in her thirties. She had a nice figure and even wore a belly button ring. Although she was married... They also took commemorative photos for us, and the snorkeling allowed us to see plenty of fish. The BBQ lunch afterward was very delicious, especially the chicken. My wife was also very pleased. The commemorative photos were $10, but I don't think that's expensive. Some participants even had video recordings. Even in January, if the weather is good, it’s not cold. I would like to participate again. Newlyweds, mature couples, families, and groups can all enjoy this experience. I think there are many repeat visitors as well.

1月15日（土）PMの部に参加させてもらいました。
天気は晴れじゃなく快晴。とても日差しが強く暑いぐらいでしたので、水の中に入ってもそう寒くはなかったです。
参加者は多く、40人以上？満席状態でした。
アオウミガメもたくさん見れましたし、サンドバーは、丁度引き潮の時間帯だったので砂が海面から出てきたところでした。ツアースタッフ5名もこんなに引いたのは初めて見たと言ってました。スタッフの対応も良く、三十路のお姉さん？がとても元気だったのが印象に残りました。へそピーなんか付けちゃって、なかなかスタイルも良かったです。既婚ですが・・。記念撮影もしてくれましたし、シュノーケリングも魚が良く見れたし、その後のBBQランチもとても美味しかったです。チキンが良かった。うちのかみさんも大変喜んでくれました。記念写真は＄10ですが高いとは思いません。中には、ビデオ撮影の方もいらっしゃいました。
1月でも天候に恵まれれば寒くないです。
また参加したいと思っています。
新婚さんから熟年カップル、ファミリー、グループ、皆さん楽しめます。リピーターも多いのではないでしょうか？
