The weather was nice on the day of the cruise, and it was a fun experience. The contrast between the buildings of Waikiki and the natural beauty of Diamond Head was very beautiful and moving.
However, it was a bit disappointing for my wife, who had been looking forward to the whale watching cruise since before our trip.
当日は天気も良く楽しいクルージングでした。
ワイキキのビル群とダイヤモンドヘッドの自然の対比が大変きれいで感動しました。
ただ旅行前からホエールウォッチングクルーズを期待していた奥さんにとってはちょっと残念な結果となりました。

I had heard that it was hard to get seasick, but when we went out into the open ocean, it was anything but fireworks. The foreigners around me were also terribly seasick. I'm done with this.
あまり酔いにくいと聞いていたのですが、外洋に出たときには花火どころではありませんでした。周りの外国人もひどく酔っていました。こりごりです。

I participated in the whale watching tour, but as others have mentioned, it didn't feel like that at all; cruising was the main focus. However, I originally signed up knowing that and thought it would be lucky if I got to see any whales, so I enjoyed it normally. Of course, I didn't see any whales, but I was satisfied...
ホエールウォッチングということで参加しましたが、他の書き込み通りそんな感じはさらさら無い、クルージングがメインです。でも元々それを承知で見れたらラッキーくらいで申し込んだので普通に楽しめました。もちろん?クジラは見られませんでしたけど満足でした。。。
Thank you for participating in the whale watching cruise. We are in contact with other captains to search for whales, but it seems that this information was not communicated to our guests, and we apologize for that. Please understand that due to the nature of wild animals, there may be times during the cruise when we are unable to confirm their presence. We look forward to serving you again.

At the end of February, it's still quite cold. Buying a fleece at Ross Dress for Less was the right choice. If the weather had been better, it might have been different!

The goal is not to see whales. It's better to think of it as enjoying the feeling of going out into the open sea, with the chance of seeing dolphins by chance. The campaign offers a deal where two people can go for the price of one, which felt like a good value. There were also two free drinks and some snacks, so it might be worth participating instead of aimlessly wandering around the city.
クジラを見ることが目的ではないです。
偶然イルカが見えただけで、外洋に出る気持ちよさを味わうと考えたほうがいいです。
キャンペーンで2人で1人分だからお得感はありました。
アルコールも2杯は無料でしたし、ちょっとしたお菓子もあるので、意味なく街をブラブラするぐらいなら参加してもいいのでは。

We participated with six people ranging from my daughter in her 20s, to those in their 30s and 50s, and my mother who is 88 years old.
At the beginning, those who wanted to hear the explanation in Japanese gathered on the deck (which is netted and allows you to see the ocean below), while the explanations inside the ship were in English, so naturally, we chose the deck. Out of the six of us, four were honestly a bit nervous sitting on the net while listening to the explanation. The Japanese explanation was enjoyable and started the time well.
Everyone took motion sickness pills just in case, but I thought being on the deck would definitely be more fun, and if you stay on the deck, you probably won't get seasick.
We caught a glimpse of a whale shortly after the cruise started, but it was hard to see more after that. However, even without seeing whales, the lively staff made it very enjoyable. We saw another whale on the return trip.
Although it wasn't extremely close, we were able to see it spouting water. We also enjoyed the view of the Waikiki hotels from the sea.
It was mentioned that two drinks were included in the ticket price, but since it was a one-hour cruise, most people probably only had one drink! I enjoyed the champagne.
I thought the cruise duration could have been a bit longer. My 88-year-old mother also had a great time, and everyone was very satisfied.
We were lucky to participate at a discounted rate due to a campaign!
一番下は20代の娘から、30代、50代、最高は母88歳までの6人で参加。
はじめに、日本語の説明を聞きたい人はデッキ(ネットになっていて下は海面が見えるところ)で、船内は英語で説明ということでしたので当然デッキで。それも6人のうち4人は正直にネットの上におっかなびっくり座って説明を聞きました。日本語堪能そして楽しい説明で時間がスタート。
一応全員酔い止めも飲んでいましたが、デッキの方が絶対楽しいし、デッキにいれば酔うこともまずないかなと思います。
クジラはクルーズスタートから間もなくちらっと見えてあとはなかなか。でもクジラが見えなくてもノリノリのスタッフでとても楽しんでいました。復路でもう一度クジラが見えました。
ものすごく近い距離ではなかったのですが、潮を吹くところも見ることが出来ました。
海から見えるワイキキのホテル群の景色も楽しめました。
2杯までアルコールはチケット代に入っているということでしたが、1時間のクルーズなのでほとんどの人は1杯かな!?シャンパンを美味しく頂きました。
もう少し長くてもいいかなと思うくらいのクルーズ時間でした。
88歳の母もとても楽しかったと全員大満足です。
今回はキャンペーン中ということでお安く参加出来てラッキー!

I couldn't see it, but it was a good boat trip in a short amount of time, I suppose? Unfortunately, I couldn't see it, but it was nice to relax on the boat while feeling the wind and enjoy the view from offshore rather than from the beach. The cost performance was good since it was two people for the price of one. It might be better to go in with the mindset that if you can see it, you'll be super lucky...
見れませんでしたが、短時間で、良い船旅ってとこでしょうか?
残念ながら見れませんでしたが、風を感じながら船上で寛いだり、ビーチからではなく、沖からの眺めを楽しむことも出来るのでよかったです。二人で一人分というコストパフォーマンスがよかった。見れれば、超ラッキー位でいったほうが良いかも・・・

This time, we used the trolley bus for my parents during our family trip. It was their second time in Hawaii, and they were very happy to finally ride the bus and enjoy it! Both of them got the senior discount, which was a good deal, but since they didn't ride it much over the four days, I thought it might have been better for me to pay the fare each time instead.
今回は、家族旅行にて父母の為にトロリーバスを利用しました。2回目のハワイで、ようやくバスにのり満喫できた!と大変喜んでいました。2人ともシニア料金でお得でしたが、1日でもあまり回数をならなく、4日間も乗らなかったので、私はその都度乗車料金を払うほうが…よかったかなと思いました。

Although it can't be helped that we didn't see any whales, I felt that the tour itself was different from what whale watching should be.
The staff also seemed to respond with, "Huh? Whale watching? I hope you see some," which didn't give me much confidence.
I think for the other guests, it was advertised as a yacht cruise. We were completely misled.

When I rode on a larger ship in the past, although I could see whales, the experience was not very moving because the ship was too big. From that experience, I chose a smaller boat this time. It was nice that there were about 10 participants, mostly older couples, creating a relaxed atmosphere. Since it was a smaller boat, we could get within a few dozen meters of the whales, which was truly moving! It was also reassuring that there was someone on the crew who could speak Japanese.
昔大きめな船に乗った時は、船が多き過ぎて一応クジラは見えたものの、あんまり感動が少なかった。その経験から今回は小さい船を選びました。参加者が10名程度でほとんどが年配のご夫婦でゆったりした雰囲気なのも良かったし、小さい船なのでクジラに数10メートルと近寄れたので感動でした!!クルーに日本語が話せる人が居たのも安心できました。

I participated with my 18-year-old daughter. We had a blast together!
Since I have a fear of heights, we chose the lowest option, but when we actually jumped, it didn't feel that high because the ocean was below us. However, the boats looked small, so it must have been quite a height.
The beautiful blue ocean surrounded us in a 360-degree panorama, and beyond that, we could see the streets of Waikiki. It was amazing!
Out of six groups, only two were Japanese, and we were able to take pictures together, which was great. We met a couple, Mr. O and his wife, for the first time on this tour, but later we coincidentally ran into them twice in Waikiki. The second time was at the hotel laundry. It was exciting to experience such coincidences because we participated in this tour.
There were various encounters, and it was a lot of fun!
18歳の娘とい一緒に参加しました。ふたりで大はしゃぎ♪
高所恐怖症なので、一番低いのにしましたが、実際飛んでみると、下が海なのでそれほど高いとも感じず、でも、ボートが小さく見えるので、かなりの高さだったんでしょうね。
きれいな青い海が一面、360度パノラマ状態で、その向こうにワイキキの街並みが見えて、最高☆
6組のうち2組だけが日本人で、写真を取り合いでき、良かったです。そのOさんご夫婦とは、このツアーではじめてお会いしたのですが、その後、ワイキキで二回も偶然お会いしました。二回目は、ホテルのランドリー。そんな偶然に興奮することができたのも、このツアーに参加したから。
いろんな出会いがあり、楽しいですよ♪

The trolley bus drivers were friendly and entertaining, and they prioritized safety, especially for children.

Before the experience, I read the reviews thoroughly and took motion sickness medication, so I didn't get seasick.
Regarding the tips, I had read that they should be paid on-site, so when I saw a paper in a visible spot on the boat saying "Please tip" in Japanese, I thought, "Ah, just like the reviews mentioned!" and was able to enjoy the experience comfortably.
However, the costs were higher than I expected, which made me a bit nervous when I saw others going up, but once it was my turn, all fear disappeared, and I genuinely had a great time. The staff offers to take photos for $30 for those who want them, but we decided to take turns with a nearby group of Japanese tourists. It was truly moving, so I highly recommend you try it!
体験にあたり、こちらのクチコミをよく読んでからのぞんだこともあり、酔い止め薬も飲んで行ったので船酔いはしませんでした。
チップについても、実は現地で払うようだということも読んでから行ったので、船のよく見えるところに「チップをお願いします」ということが日本語で書かれた紙が貼られているのをみても「あっクチコミに書いてあったとおりだ!」と思うくらいで、気持ちよく楽しんでくることができました。
ただ、思っていた以上に本当に高くあがるので、他の方があがっているのを見て少し緊張しましたが、自分の番になれば全然恐怖心も吹き飛び、心の底から楽しかったです。カメラは、スタッフの方が希望者に30ドルで撮影してくれるのですが、私達は隣の日本人のグループとお互いに取り合うことにしました。本当に感動できるので、ぜひ体験してみてください!

I participated with a friend. The view from the air was great, and we could see Diamond Head in its entirety. The wind felt nice, and it didn't feel too bumpy. Since we took off from the boat, I thought I wouldn't get wet today, but just then, we slowed down and I got splashed into the sea (laughs).
However, since we went out on a small boat that holds about a dozen people, it was quite rocky, and because we went in groups of 2-3, I think you would get really seasick if you don't take motion sickness medication while waiting.
Photos were $30, but not many people ordered them; instead, we took turns taking pictures with the others on board.
The staff were cheerful and fun, and I think this is a great activity for families. I want to do it again!
友達と2人で参加してきました。
空中では見晴らしがよく、ダイアモンドヘッドを一望出来ました。風が気持ちよく、あまり揺れている感じはしませんでした。ボートから飛び立つので、今日は濡れないな~と思った矢先、スピードを落として海に落っことされました(笑)
ただ、10数人乗りの小さな船で沖に出るので揺れが激しく、2~3人ずつ順番に行うので、酔い止めを飲んでおかないと待っている間にめちゃくちゃ酔うと思います。
写真は30ドルでしたがみんなあまり頼まずに、同乗している方達と写真を交代で取り合っていました。

My daughter (21 years old) was thrilled and said she could ride it over and over again. It's safe and incredibly fun!! If I had to mention one thing, be cautious of seasickness. While waiting for all the passengers to finish their experience, you might feel unwell on the swaying boat like a leaf...

I apologize for the distress caused. Since you participated five years ago, we are unable to confirm the weather conditions on that day with the operating company, but it can be inferred that the winds were stronger than usual, and even the catamaran boat, which typically doesn't sway much, experienced significant rocking.
