I took a special By One Get One ticket deal for the early bird whale watching tour and it was phenomenal. We had the pleasure of standing by the naturalist, Alyssa for most of the trip and she was very informative and a joy to be around. We saw a momma and her calf breach, and several fluke tail breach’s. The star itself had a ton of space to allow families to spread out and was clean. What a great experience!

My family and I had a great time during the tour and enjoyed all the places we visited, except the Dole plantation which we think they should take out of the tour and visit Haleiwa town instead.
Our guide, Kainoa, was fantastic. He knows a lot about the history of Hawaii.

I made a reservation because it was stated that there would be a Japanese-speaking crew, but there was no Japanese-speaking crew. However, the crew members did their best to entertain us, and even though I'm not good at swimming, I was able to swim with the sea turtles and had a great time. It was nice to swim with the sea turtles and the crew (who only spoke English) were kind, but it was a bit disappointing that the information was incorrect.

日本語クルー確約と記載があったため予約しましたが、日本語クルーはいませんでした。
しかし、クルーの方が一生懸命楽しませてくれたので、泳ぐのが苦手な私でもウミガメと泳ぐことができ、無事に楽しむことができました。
ウミガメと泳げたこと、クルー(英語のみ)が親切だったので、良かったですが、情報が違うのはちょっと、、、

The boat quickly became smaller, and while feeling the wind, we were able to enjoy ourselves. We also became friends with other people from different countries who were on board, and by chance, we reunited at Kailua Beach. It became a wonderful memory.

みるみるうちに船は小さくなり、風を感じながら、舞い上がり、私たちは楽しむ事ができました。
同乗した他の国の方とも仲良くなり偶然にもカイルアビーチで再会しました。
とても良い思い出になりました。

We had an amazing time on Three Tiki Boat Cruise! The boat boys were very nice and provided a safe and fun experience for us! We would definitely go again and recommend to friends!

I was not good at entering the sea, or rather, I was scared, so I had never gone underwater. However, I decided to participate while I am still healthy and celebrating my 70th birthday. We encountered a pod of dolphins offshore. I forgot their name, but they were small dolphins, and there were some with their young. After that, I had my first snorkeling experience near the shore. I was taught how to use the equipment and jumped in. Once I got used to my breathing, I felt more relaxed. Unfortunately, I ended up taking out my contact lenses. I was worried about seawater getting into my goggles, but the inside of the goggles didn't fill with seawater. I could see the fish clearly when they came close, but the ones farther away were blurry. Thanks to our guide Ken, I was able to enjoy myself without drowning. I also enjoyed a turkey sandwich and corn chips. Next time, I am thinking of trying snorkeling a little closer to the shore. The boat, the new Poseidon, had a warm shower and the view from the upper deck was fantastic.

海に入るのが苦手というか、怖いのもあり海中に入ることがなかったのですが、古稀を迎えて元気なうちに体験しておこうと参加しました。沖合でイルカの群れに遭遇。名前は忘れましたが小型のイルカで親子連れもいました。そのあと岸の近くで初シュノーケル。使い方を教えてもらい、飛び込みました。息使いになれると余裕も生まれました。残念だったのはコンタクトレンズを外してしまったこと。水中眼鏡に海水が入ることを心配したのですが、眼鏡の中が海水だらけにはなりませんでした。魚が近づいてくるとよく見えるのですが、遠いところの魚はボンヤリ。ガイドのケンさんのおかげで溺れることなく楽しめました。ターキーのサンドイッチ、コーンチップスもおいしくいただきました。今度はもう少し岸に近いところでシュノーケリング体験を考えています。船は新しいポセイドン号で温水シャワーや上部のデッキからの景色が最高でした。

Just friendly crew who delivered what they said they would.

Quick but fun experience. Staff was very skilled. Don't worry if you only have 2, they just add another staff to help paddle.

Everyone was really kind and knowledgeable! The group wasn't too big so everyone got 6-7 waves in, and the instructor was really good. He was very encouraging, and he had great timing on which waves to catch.

My husband and I had a great time snorkeling, kayaking, and SUP. It was the first time we experienced these kind of activities. The staff were very helpful and kind. Loved the live music! I think everyone should experience this at least once in their life time. This was definitely the highlight of our one week long trip to Oahu!!

The Star of Honolulu crew knows exactly what they are doing. The night before our trip they called to ensure that we knew exactly where to begin our adventire. At 200 feet, the Star is steady in the morning sea. The crew is knowledgeable and helpful. We were given a brief lesson in whale anatomy, diet, and behavior before we set out. We understood the challenges and likely outcomes of our trip. We did see whales. We would have liked to have seen more, but we were well prepared for the visit we received. This was a a grest start to our vacation

We participated as a family and everyone, regardless of age or gender, had a great time. There were first-timers for kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and snorkeling, but we were able to try them with confidence. I believe this was thanks to the staff's smiles and kind support.

ファミリーでの参加でしたが老若男女を問わず楽しめました
カヤック、サップ、シュノーケルの初めての者もいましたが、安心してトライ出来ました
これはスタッフの笑顔と親切な対応のおかげだと思います

Cultural experiences are a fun time, and the traditional cuisine buffet dinner with the best views is very satisfying. The Hawaiian show is impressive... the luau "feast" is the best!

文化体験は楽しいひとときで、最高景色での伝統料理ビュッフェディナーも満足のいく内容です。
ハワイアンショーは迫力があって．．．ルアウ「宴」は最高ですね！

The weather was nice, and I had a great time, but the experience was a bit short for the price. I would expect at least one hour for the amount I paid.

お天気にも恵まれ、楽しかったけど、料金の割に体験時間が短めだった。
支払った料金だと最低限1時間は行って欲しいです。

Captain Bob's was great and the crew was fantastic. Volleyball on the sand bar was so much fun!

The live performance during the trip was amazing! The ability to switch between stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and snorkeling at my own pace and do as much as I wanted was also a great attraction.

行き帰りでしてくださった生演奏が最高でした！サップにカヤック、シュノーケリングと、全て自分の好きなタイミングで切り替えられて、好きなだけできるのも魅力です。

Wonderful day with my Daughter playing volleyball and paddle boarding.

The pick-up and drop-off to the hotel were handled by a reliable driver, which gave me peace of mind. The goggles, snorkel, and float wetsuit I borrowed were also easy to use. I am very satisfied.

お迎えも返りのホテルまでの送りも、あんしんしまかせられる良いドライバーでした。
お借りしゴーグル、シュノーケル、フロートウエットスーツも、使いやすかったです。
大満足です。

It was the best time we have had. Learned a lot about how they grow pineapple 🍍

There was singing, services like spam rice balls, hula dancing, and a lot of other activities besides sea turtle snorkeling, which made it enjoyable! Having a Japanese guide eased my worries. The sea was also very beautiful.

However, reflecting on my experience, I had never gotten seasick before, so I didn't take any motion sickness medication, but the boat rocked quite a bit and I started to feel unwell. I think it would have been better to take the medication. Perhaps reading the lyrics while singing contributed to my nausea as well. My husband and son went up to the second floor of the boat and said they really enjoyed feeling like they were driving the boat, so I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I could have done that too...

歌あり、スパムおにぎりなどのサービスあり、フラダンスもありで、ウミガメシュノーケリング以外のものも盛りだくさんで、楽しめました！！日本人ガイドさんがいてくれたので不安もありませんでした。海もとてもキレイ。
ただ自分への反省として、今まで酔ったことがなかったので酔い止めは飲まなかったのですが、結構船が揺れて気分が悪くなってしまいました。酔い止めは飲んだ方がよかったかなと思いました。もしかしたら、歌を歌う時に文字を読んだのも、酔いに繋がったのかも。夫と息子は船の2階に上がって、自分が船を運転している気分になってとても楽しめたと言っていたので、それも出来たらもっと楽しめたな…と思いました。

I visited during the off-season. Overall, it was not crowded, and there were plenty of beach beds available. My child was too scared to go on the slides, so it ended up being a bit pricey in terms of cost performance, but I would recommend it if you can enjoy the various types of slides.

The lazy river has a gentler current compared to Japan, so it might feel a bit lacking. The wave pool had so many floaties that they ran out.

A Japanese staff member assisted with entry, which was very helpful and easy to understand.

オフシーズンに利用しました。
全体的に空いていて、ビーチベッドも十分使えました。子どもが怖がってスライダーに行けなかったので、コスパとしては高くつきましたが、いろんな種類のスライダーを楽しめるのならおすすめです。

流れるプールは流れが日本よりもゆったりしているので物足りないかもしれません。波の出るプールは浮き輪が足りなくなるくらいでした。

日本人のスタッフの方が入場のお手伝いをしてくださり、わかりやすかったです。

The transportation and instructors were all local people, but I was able to communicate through gestures and simple English words, which made it enjoyable to participate.

This time, we were the only Japanese people, so I was a bit nervous, but everyone in the same group and the instructors were very friendly, making it a fantastic experience until the end!

送迎もインストラクターも現地の方たちばかりでしたが、ジェスチャーや簡単な英単語でコミュニケーションを取っていただけたので楽しく参加出来ました。

今回、日本人は私たちだけで緊張しましたが、同じグループの方もインストラクターの方もみんなノリが良く最後まで最高でした！

As soon as we boarded, we had banana bread and coffee. It was really delicious! We were able to see whales about four times. They were a bit far away, though!

乗船してすぐにバナナブレッド、コーヒーをいただきました。すごくおいしかったです！
クジラは4回ほど見ることができました。遠目ではありましたが、、！

The view of Hawaii from a height of 150 meters with no obstructions was amazing! It was a very enjoyable time with breathtaking scenery and a refreshing feeling that far exceeded my expectations. The staff communicated in broken Japanese, which was reassuring, and they were very service-oriented. They took great photos that captured the moment perfectly, making it easy to remember that time. I absolutely recommend it!

遮るもののない高さ150mからのハワイの景色は最高でした！期待をはるかに超える絶景と爽快感でとても楽しい時間でした。
スタッフの方はカタコトですが日本語で説明してくれて安心ですし、サービス精神たっぷりです。写真はとても上手に撮ってくれて、どれもあの時あの瞬間を思い出せる臨場感のあるものばかりです。絶対オススメです！

What a great night the staff and cast were so kind. It was very entertaining. My nine-year-old said it was the best night she had in Hawaii highly recommend.

I had a great time! I was a bit nervous at 150 meters because I have a fear of heights, but seeing is believing, right? It turned out to be a wonderful memory. The staff were fun and provided solid support, so I felt at ease.

いやー楽しかったです！
高所恐怖症なので150ｍにどぎまぎしていましたが、百聞は一見？に如かずやるべきです。すごく良い思い出になりました。
スタッフの方も楽しくそしてしっかりサポートして頂いたので安心してください。

The staff spoke entirely in English, but I could understand it to some extent! I was satisfied with the many photos they took of me (there was an additional charge). I got splashed in the sea multiple times, haha!

スタッフさんは全て英語ですが、何となく分かるかなというくらいでした！
たくさん写真を撮ってもらい、満足です。(追加料金あり)
何度も海ポチャされました笑

The crew was awesome, music awesome, had so much fun with my family tubing and playing volleyball. Highly recommend

Have our own private table and food was good. Have freedom to go topside and had our dinner for the fire works. Second time doing this and would do it again.

This was a very enjoyable experience from beginning to end. Getting to see whales was the icing on the top of a scenic and informative trip.
