シュノーケリングクルーズ イルカやウミガメに出会えるチャンスも!?選べる8時/12時出港プラン<ハワイアンプレートランチ&アルコール4杯付き/ワイキキ送迎あり>

Dolphins, sea turtles, whales イルカ・ウミガメ・クジラ

Reviewed by: ヤギ

I was able to encounter dolphins, sea turtles, and whales. I think I was quite lucky. The boat was clean and offered a lot of exotic charm during the cruise. Since it was a group snorkeling tour, I felt safe. We stopped at various points, and I felt secure leaving it to the captain. The boat rocked a bit, but I was able to enjoy meals and drinks without any issues. It was very interesting. I definitely want to participate in this tour again next time.

イルカ・ウミガメ・クジラすべてに遭遇できました。
かなりラッキーだったと思います。
船も清潔感ある、異国情緒たっぷりのクルージング。
団体でのシュノーケリングなので安心です。
ポイントポイントで停泊し、船長さんに任せておけば安心でした。
船の揺れもそこそこですが、普通に食事やドリンクを楽しめました。
とてもおもしろかったです。
次回も是非参加したいツアーでした。

シュノーケリングクルーズ イルカやウミガメに出会えるチャンスも!?選べる8時/12時出港プラン<ハワイアンプレートランチ&アルコール4杯付き/ワイキキ送迎あり>

I participated at the beginning of November. 11月始めに参加しました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I decided on this tour after reading various experiences. We gathered early in the morning and traveled to the site by bus. The boat was beautiful, and there were drinks and light snacks like cupcakes and yogurt available for us to enjoy at any time. For lunch, there was a light buffet with hamburgers, rice, meat, and potatoes, but I couldn't eat much due to fatigue, seasickness, and drowsiness. I had lunch again separately after returning.

Most of the participants were foreigners, with only a few Japanese. The tour guide was American, but there was one person who spoke fluent Japanese, providing explanations in Japanese after the English ones.

The weather was nice that day, but we had a hard time spotting dolphins and turtles. We stopped for about an hour to enjoy snorkeling. The water was crystal clear and beautiful. It was fun to throw food and have many fish come right up to me. I was considering diving the next day, but snorkeling was enjoyable enough.

After that, we returned to the boat and finally encountered dolphins. About ten dolphins swam near the boat, seemingly playing with us, and they were really cute.

It was early November, and the sea wasn't too cold, but it did get chilly after being in the water for a long time. You can rent a wetsuit for about ten dollars at the port's reception, not through the tour company. They sell snacks, drinks, and port T-shirts and goods, resembling a souvenir corner, but I didn't see anyone buying anything in particular.

As for wallets, you can leave your belongings or towels on the tables or chairs inside the boat, so it's better not to carry cards or large amounts of cash just in case. It was mentioned that you should bring your passport if you plan to drink alcohol, but I wasn't asked to show it. So, it would be good to have about twenty dollars in a pouch just in case, but I ended up not using any cash at all.

Also, after swimming, it gets cold, so a bath towel and a hoodie or T-shirt to wear on top are essential.

Even if you don't usually get seasick, it's a good idea to bring motion sickness medication. The boat isn't that small or shaky, but since we left early in the morning and I hadn't eaten much for breakfast, I did feel a bit nauseous.

After about an hour of snorkeling and sunbathing for a long time, the early morning conditions were surprisingly tiring, and most people were fast asleep on the bus ride back in the afternoon.

体験談を色々読んでこちらに決めました。朝早く集合してバスで現地まで移動。船は綺麗で、室内にはいつでも自由に飲食できる飲み物、カップケーキやヨーグルトなど軽食がありました。昼食も軽いビュッフェ形式のハンバーガー、ご飯、お肉、ポテト、など出ましたが、疲れや酔いと眠気が手伝ってあまり食べれず。帰って別でまた昼食をとりました。

ほとんどの参加者が外国人で、日本人は少しだけ。ツアー催行者の方もアメリカ人ですが、一人日本語がペラペラな方がいて、日本人にも英語の説明の後に日本語で説明してくれます。

この日は天気は良かったのですがなかなかイルカもカメも見つからず、とりあえず停舶して1時間ほどスノーケリングを楽しみました。海の中は透き通ってすごく綺麗。エサを放り投げてたくさんの魚が目の前まで来て楽しかったです。ダイビングを次の日に考えてましたが、スノーケリングで十分楽しめます。

その後、船に戻ってようやくイルカに出会えました。本当にわざとやってるのかと思うほど10頭ほどのイルカが船の近くで一緒に「遊ぼう!遊ぼう!」と泳いで、とてもかわいかったです。

11月始めですが、さほど海は冷たくなかったですが、長いこと入っていると寒くなってきます。ウェットスーツは10ドルかな?でツアー会社ではなく港の受付で借りれます。ここではお菓子、飲み物や港のTシャツやらグッズ等が売っていて、お土産コーナーのようですが、特に何か買ってる人はいなかったです、、。

お財布などは船内のテーブルや椅子の上に荷物やタオルを置いておくかんじなので、カードや大金は念のため持ち歩かないようにしたほうがいいです。お酒を飲む場合のパスポート持参と書かれていましたが特に提示を聞かれませんでした。なので、ポーチに万が一のために20ドルくらい入れていけばいい感じですが、結局一銭も現金は使っていません。

あとは、泳いだ後が寒いのでバスタオルと上に着るパーカーもしくはTシャツは必須です。

あまり乗り物に酔わない人でも酔い止めは持参したほうがいいです。そこまで小型で揺れる船ではないですが、朝早いので朝食をあまりとってなかったりすると酔います。

1時間ほどのスノーケリング、日差しの下で長い間日焼け、朝早いというコンディションは意外に疲れ、昼の帰りのバスはほとんどの人が爆睡してました。午後からアク

Aloha~♪ アロハ~♪

Reviewed by: ery

On the last day of our trip, we decided to book a dinner cruise. I thought about wrapping up our time in Hawaii with this, and it turned out to be the perfect choice! The Royal Hawaiian, which I've always admired, was right in front of us, and we had the best location in the front row.

By the time we arrived at the hotel, there was already a line forming, and I was really glad we splurged on the premium seats. The show and the food were amazing, and the all-you-can-drink alcohol made us feel so happy! I definitely want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii!

旅行最終日に申し込みました。
ハワイの締めくくりにディナークルーズにしようかと思いましたが、こちらにして大正解でした♡
憧れのロイヤルハワイアン♡
海を目の前に最前列で最高のロケーション♡
・・私たちがホテルに着いた頃にはすでに行列ができていて、ちょっと奮発してプレミアム席にして本当によかったーと思いました。

Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

Wonderful night

Reviewed by: John and Sheila

We had a wonderful evening at the Royal Hawaiian Luau!!! Beautiful hotel and grounds (took my breath away when we pulled up in the taxi) and beautiful evening. We were the very last ones to arrive (someone stole our taxi!) and I was very upset fearing that we would be seated in the rear. I had paid for the premium seats (forgot I did that, and recommend doing so), however, and they walked us right up to our front row table. It was fabulous. The food was wonderful and authentic, not too much to make us feel stuffed, and not too little that we were hungry after dinner. The entertainment was fantastic, we especially enjoyed the woman doing the emceeing (I'm sorry, I forget her name), the fire dancer and the woman playing Wipe Out on the yukelele. What a terrific night. The entertainment was first rate, the night beautiful, and the drinks were lovely and yummy! We highly recommend. Photos are from my phone, so not the best quality.

伝統ルアウ&ハワイアンショー「アハアイナ」ワイキキ中心!ダイアモンドヘッドを望む絶景オーシャン・フロントでのディナーショー<ロイヤル・ハワイアン内>

Recommended Luau 一押しルアウ

Reviewed by: マーちゃんパパ

We attended the family gathering the night before my second son's wedding. The meal was a proper course dinner, and the luau was of quite high quality, leaving everyone very satisfied. When I told the host of the show that I was getting married the next day, he introduced me to everyone, and I received applause and blessings from them. It seems to have become an unforgettable memory for the couple.

I was thinking of leaving feeling very satisfied, but when I went to pick up the photos taken by the photographer, I was charged $20. Since it was free two years ago, I felt quite disappointed.

Aside from this, it was a wonderful luau, so I recommend it. However, please note that it only takes place on Mondays.

次男の結婚式前夜に家族で参加してきました。
食事はちゃんとしたコース料理、ルアウはかなり質が高く、それぞれ満足度は高いものがあります。
ショーの司会者に「翌日結婚する」と伝えたら、皆さんに紹介してくれて、皆さんから祝福の拍手をいただきました。次男夫婦には忘れられない思い出となったようです。
満足感いっぱいで帰ろうと思い、帰りにカメラマンが撮った写真を受け取りにいったら20ドル払わされてしまいました。2年前は無料だったので、とっても損した気分になりました。 
このことを除くと、とても素晴らしいルアウですので、お勧めします。ただし、月曜日だけしかやっていませんのでご注意を。

シュノーケリングクルーズ イルカやウミガメに出会えるチャンスも!?選べる8時/12時出港プラン<ハワイアンプレートランチ&アルコール4杯付き/ワイキキ送迎あり>

The dolphins were cute. But... イルカは可愛かった。でも・・・

Reviewed by: どるふぃん

I had high expectations after reading other people's comments, but Jin was not there (>_<) Well, that's fine, but...
There was another young man, but he probably struggles with Japanese and Japanese people. He completely avoided eye contact with the Japanese group and ignored us when we tried to hand him fins and goggles.
A woman explained things in English and then in broken Japanese, but it was just a few words, about 10% of the time spent on English. So I felt a bit uneasy.
- I did see dolphins. They were cute.
- The food was delicious.

I had some communication issues with the tour office this time and had to make phone calls, but I couldn't understand much because they spoke too fast. I asked them to speak slowly, but... I was somewhat confident in my English conversation skills, but I'm particularly bad on the phone...

I dislike being around only Japanese people and have often participated in tours that are mainly in English, but if you want to swim and dive, which involves some risks, and want to receive sufficient explanations,
and if you think you might have trouble negotiating in English in case of issues or inconveniences,
then perhaps it would have been better to apply for a tour that is mainly for Japanese people or run by Japanese or Japanese-owned companies, even among Alan1's tours.

ほかの方のコメントを見ていて、期待していたんですが、ジン君はいませんでした(>_<)まぁそれはいいんですが・・・。
べつの青年がいましたが、彼は多分、日本語&日本人が苦手なのでしょう、日本人グループには、絶対目を合わさなくてスルー、フィンやゴーグルも渡すときスルーされるんです。
女性の方が英語に続き、かたことの日本語で説明してくれましたが、ほんの一言、英語の10%くらいの時間です。だから少し不安でした。
・イルカは見れました。かわいかったです。
・食事は美味しかったです。

今回このツアーのオフィスと連絡の行き違いなどで電話したりしましたが、早口でほとんど聞きとれませんでした。ゆっくりお願いしますと言いましたが・・・。そこそこ英会話には自信あったんですが、電話だと特にダメですね・・・

日本人ばかりは嫌、色んな国の人と触れ合いたい、と英語メインのツアーによく参加してきましたが、
・泳いだり潜ったり、多少の危険が伴い、また充分な説明を受けたい
・トラブルや不都合なことがあった場合、英語で交渉できない
・・・と思われる場合は、alan1さんのツアーの中でも、
日本人&日本語メインの、または日系や日本人が経営、主催のツアーに申し込んだほうが良かったのかな、
と思いました。

Makani Independence Day Fireworks Dinner Cruise (from Kewalo Basin)

Amazing experience for great price!

Reviewed by: Newlyweds

My husband and I were recently married in Oahu and stayed for our honeymoon for 2 weeks. We wanted something really unique to do for the 4th of July and while I was online booking another activity, this fireworks, catamaran sail popped up. I never in a million years thought we would get tickets in time, considering it was the saturday before the 4th, but I placed my order and recieved a confirmation within 24 hours confirming our date for the 4th. It was such a low price, that we really didn't have extremely high expectations. When we arrived on the catamaran the staff were so friendly and educated everyone on the boat. They also went around and took pictures for those who wanted them. We sailed arounf the bay in Wakiki for a a few hours and then when dark hit we sat in the bay and watched the fireworks. It was so romantic and such a breathtaking view. We had the best seats in the house! They offer two free drinks (Alcoholic/Non-Alcoholic) plus appetizers, there are bathrooms, a nice s

The deck was amazing. デッキは最高でした。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The cruise was filled with Japanese people, so it didn't feel like I was in Hawaii. When I watched the countdown fireworks from the deck, there were a lot of people, and everyone counted down together, which was very exciting. The food wasn't particularly delicious, but the atmosphere on the deck was nice. The fireworks viewed from the deck were better than those seen from the beach in Honolulu.

クルーズのフロアーは日本人だらけで、ハワイにいる感じがしなかったです。デッキからカウントダウンの花火を見た時は、人が大勢いて、みんなでカウントダウンをし、とても盛り上がりました。料理は特に美味しいわけでもありませんが、デッキでの雰囲気は良かったです。ホノルルのビーチから見る花火より、デッキから見た花火の方が最高でした。

伝統ルアウ&ハワイアンショー「アハアイナ」ワイキキ中心!ダイアモンドヘッドを望む絶景オーシャン・フロントでのディナーショー<ロイヤル・ハワイアン内>

The best location. 最高のロケーション

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

We splurged and reserved premium seats, and on April 30th, we attended with my wife and our nephew. When we arrived at the meeting time, there was already a long line, but we were prioritized and guided to the front row table. It seemed that those with general seating were being directed to the front row seats in order of arrival, so I recommend arriving early.

The table we were shown to was a round one right in front of the stage. The backdrop of the oceanfront stage featured Diamond Head, making for a fantastic location. Even though we had premium seats, those who arrived after us were seated with their backs to the stage and Diamond Head, which made the benefits of the premium seating feel a bit diminished.

The meal was served as a course rather than a buffet, and the staff frequently came to take drink orders, so we didn't feel any frustration. Since we were in Waikiki, it felt like there were overwhelmingly more Japanese guests. At our table for nine, aside from the two Americans at the neighboring table, everyone else was Japanese.

I have experienced several luau shows, including those on the outer islands, but this one was not the type where the audience participates with a lot of chatter; it was a well-structured entertainment show to watch. The fire dance, in particular, was the most impressive I have ever seen.

I was glad that the show coincided with my stay in Waikiki, as I was able to enjoy a very luxurious time. Thank you very much.

 奮発してプレミア席を予約し、我々夫婦と甥っ子と3人で4月30日に参加しました。
 集合時間に行くとすでに長蛇の列が出来ていましたが、優先して最前列のテーブルに案内していただきました。一般席を予約している方は到着順に舞台の前列の席から誘導されているようでしたので、早めに到着することをお勧めします。

 私たちが案内されたのは舞台の目の前にある丸テーブルの席でした。オーシャンフロントの舞台の背景にはダイアモンドヘッドがあり、最高のロケーションでした。同じプレミア席でも私たちの後から来た方は舞台とダイアモンドヘッドを背にする席でしたのでプレミア席の<メリット感>が少ないようにも感じました。

 食事はビュッフェスタイルではなく、コースのお料理が順番に席に運ばれてきました。飲み物は席の係の方が頻繁にオーダーを聞きに来てくれていましたのでフラストレーションは感じませんでした。
 ワイキキですので、印象としては私たち日本人が圧倒的に多く感じました。私たち9人席のテーブルも隣の席の米国人おふたり以外は日本の方でした。

 離島も含めてルアウショーの経験はいくつかありますが、観客が<ワイワイガヤガヤ>と参加するタイプのものではなく、全編がしっかりと構成されたエンターテイメントを<観る>というものでした。取り分けファイアーダンスは今まで観た中でも圧巻でした。

 今回、週に一回のショーの開催日と私のワイキキ滞在日が合って良かったと思います。とても贅沢な時間を過ごすことが出来ましたから。ありがとうございました。

I was able to see both, although just a little. Well, since it's a tour in nature, I suppose this is to be expected.
The snorkeling was cold, and I was shivering. The weather was bad from early morning, so I should have brought a rash guard. By the way, it was disappointing that I could only see fish and rocks!

The muffin for the light snack was delicious. I couldn't eat lunch because I got seasick. The staff kindly suggested that I could take it back and eat it at the center.

シュノーケリングは寒くて震えてました。当日は朝一から天候が悪かったのでラッシュを用意して行くべきでした。ちなみに魚と岩場しか見えなくて残念!!

I wanted to ride the Star of Honolulu again after my last trip to Hawaii, and while searching, I discovered a fireworks viewing and countdown course on December 31. Since it was a special countdown, I decided to sign up for a more extravagant and memorable experience.

The Star of Honolulu is not just a simple dinner cruise where you enjoy a meal and the night view; it’s a meaningful experience where you sing and dance with the staff. We welcomed the countdown on the deck, and we were able to see fireworks from both the Ala Moana area and the Kahala area, as well as fireworks from various other districts, making for a truly luxurious time.

I also ordered champagne, but when I requested to change it to a non-alcoholic option (Shanmeri) on-site, they handled it without any complaints, and the staff was very kind and helpful. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

前回の渡ハの時に乗船したスターオブホノルルに再度乗りたく思い、探していると12月31日の花火観賞&カウントダウンってコースがあるのを発見。
折角のカウントダウンなので、ちょっと豪勢に、そして記憶に残るカウントダウンにしたくて申し込みました。
このスターオブホノルル、ただ食事をして夜景を見て楽しむ単純なディナークルーズではなく、スタッフと一緒に歌って踊ってこそ意味のあるコースです。
カウントダウンは、デッキで迎えた訳ですが、アラモアナ地区であがる花火とカハラ地区?であがる花火を両方(その他色々な地区の花火も見える)見ることができ、とても贅沢な時間を迎えることが出来ました。

Waikiki New Year's Eve Champagne Cruise & Fireworks Show - Makani Catamaran

Best way to bring in the New Year

Reviewed by: Luna R.

My husband and I went on this sail last year in Hawaii, and it was by far the best time I had while I was there. The catamaran is really beautiful and I loved just chilling out on the nets at the front of the boat. The hubby and I just snuggled and sipped our drinks while watching the fireworks and the skyline. All of Waikiki was sparkling and being on the water was the BEST way to see the fireworks. I know that back at home, it can get really crowded on the shoreline so not having to deal with the mess of people was a fantastic perk. A great big thank you to the captain and crew and we will see you again soon!

I had a great time. Perhaps because it was crowded during the summer season, I thought I would have a seat a bit closer... I think the show would have been even more enjoyable if I understood English. I wonder if it's easier to get seats if you arrive early? The food was delicious and served as a course. I enjoyed chatting with an elderly couple at the same table, and the time flew by. It was a fun experience since shows like this are quite rare in Japan.

いい時間を過ごしました。夏のシーズンで混んでるためなのか、もう少し前の席かと思ったのですが、、、英語がわかるともっと楽しいショーだったと思います。なるべく早く行った方が席は取りやすいのかな?料理もコースで美味しく頂きました。同じテーブルの年配夫婦とお話しながらで時間もあっという間でしたね。日本ではなかなか無いショーなので楽しかったです。

Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

Wonderful Show

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

The show and dinner were all great, although the difference between booking premiere and regular show seems only to make sure that you have a front table. I was very lucky to sit with a family from Canada who were very friendly and welcoming. This show has seating at large round tables, and so as an individual realize that you are going to be sitting with someone else.

The show itself was first rate and the singers and dancers put their all to it. There is a small part of the show at the beginning that really didn't make sense where they played like to the were doing work in a village....they should let the dancers and singers rest and abandon this part.

This is an expensive but on Waikiki event, no bus to ride on, but let me share with you if you are in the restaurant right next to the show, or are on the public beach behind the show you could see the whole thing for free!

OK, there was a pod of 200 dolphins swimming all around our boat - which was a trip, sunset views were awesome - you won't see a sunset like this one in Waikiki, believe me I went one TWO sailing trips in Waikiki last week, which were great too ... but on this trip we actually saw the sun slip away behind the ocean horizon. The crew was so friendly and chill and accommodating ... no pressure ... no trying to shamelessly sell you stuff, actually, Captain Patrick shared all the free stuff to do along the coast, we saw the Black Pearl from Pirates of the Caribbean and the new Disney hotel too. The snorkeling was great! The food was simple and healthy and tasty! Yum! I understand that this is a newer tour so we only had about 18 people on a 49 capacity boat .... so lots of room to stretch out and get some tanning done. Thank you all at the Ocean Joy for such an amazing experience! We will be back the Kai oli oli again!!

Thanks!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Thanks for making my life a bit easier Hawaii Activities! I am quite possibly the WORST gift giver in the universe! I never seem to quite "get it right!" when picking presents....and so when my daughter's college graduation came up, and I knew she was celebrating with a trip to Oahu....I asked for HELP...and my husband found this gift certificate option on the site.

Well...my daughter LOVES anytime she gets to call the shots! And so this gift was a WINNER! thanks Hawaii Activities!

Makani Independence Day Fireworks Dinner Cruise (from Kewalo Basin)

Hawaii vacation finale

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Made arrangements for the early 4th of July celebration which was last night there. Kids ages 12 thru 18 enjoyed the ride and the fireworks. So that made me happy. I believe that it would be a good activity for families, couple or business clients. Something unique. It made a perfect ending to the time spent in Hawaii.

Makani Independence Day Fireworks Dinner Cruise (from Kewalo Basin)

Fireworks with family

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We took our family on this cruise, and are happy we did. Every year we never seem to know what to do about going to Fireworks shows. We have two kids, and I am always a little worried to have them around a huge crowd of people. I don't want them to get scared and also, just safety concerns and feeling so hectic and in the middle of the Waikiki hub bub...we had to find an alternative.

This cruise was the perfect solution. We just showed up, and were greeted by hula dancers which my kids thought was so great! And then we were served a great meal, that even the kids ate. The fireworks started and we were able to enjoy all the thrill of the Magic Island show, without being stuck in the middle of that crazy crowd of people. We would do this again next year for sure.

【2025年7月4日独立記念日限定!】ディナークルーズ スターオブホノルル号 船上から眺める花火とワイキキの夜景!ディナーはビュッフェやコース料理から選べる

What a BLAST!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My wife and I took this cruise and had a great time!

Being new to the area, we asked for some suggestions and several people mentioned the Star of Honolulu to us. So we gave it a shot, and we are so glad we did.

It was easy to get to the pickup point right from our hotel, we actually walked! And then the dinner was great. I am a big eater, and a self-professed food snob, but that lobster and five-course meal was truly amazing. Fireworks capped off the night with a bang, and it was just wonderful.

Premium Ko Olina Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watching, Lunch Buffet & Drinks - Ocean Joy Cruises

GREAT DOLPHIN WATCH CRUISE!!!

Reviewed by: Ms Rosie

We seen so many dolphins and we were even fortunate enough to see Bottlenose Dolphins which are much much bigger than the frequent spinner dolphins. Bottlenose Dolphins do not come around the islands very often so this was a real treat, maybe even a once in a lifetime opportunity!!

The crew was very friendly and they held my sister's hand in the water because she is afraid of sea animals. But ONCE she put her mask on and placed her head under the water, it was a whole different world for her filled with beautiful colored fish and a huge reef system that surrounded her.

Wonderful crew, Tasty food, everyone on-board was really friendly and after a nice dip out in the deep blue ocean, you are treated to an open bar. Great Stuff! Thank you Hawaiiactivities.com and Ocean Joy Cruises for a wonderful dolphin watch and cruise!

HawaiiActivities.com Gift Certificate - Give the Gift of Aloha with Hawaii Tours

Great Gift Idea!!!!

Reviewed by: Kari Schultz

My son and his wife went to Hawaii for their honeymoon and rather than giving them another gravy boat, I wanted to give them something that they would really enjoy. This Gift Certificate was PERFECT! They were able to choose the tours that they wanted to do, when they wanted to do it.

I was a bit confused at first about choosing the dates, but the nice staff at Hawaiiactivities let me know that I could just choose any date. They sent me an email and I just printed it up and handed it off to them. PERFECT! Thank you for a great idea!

シュノーケリングクルーズ イルカやウミガメに出会えるチャンスも!?選べる8時/12時出港プラン<ハワイアンプレートランチ&アルコール4杯付き/ワイキキ送迎あり>

Winter sea 冬の海

Reviewed by: 小春

I participated in an early morning cruise. When it comes to the winter sea, it's all about whales. I was torn between a whale tour and this one, but I decided to take a chance on the winter sea and chose this tour.

Although it was a dolphin tour, we stopped at a point where we could see whales at the beginning of the cruise, and I was able to see my long-awaited whales. I was also satisfied to see a mother and baby whale!

Then, we encountered many dolphins, and just when I thought we found one, a group of a dozen dolphins appeared, which was so exciting! The snorkeling afterward was also great, as I saw a lot of fish.

I'm not a strong swimmer, but thanks to the life jacket, I was able to snorkel with peace of mind. This time, there were three generations participating, from 0 to 71 years old, and my 3-year-old son enjoyed snorkeling, while my in-laws also had a great time on the cruise and snorkeling.

There was a staff member who was fluent in Japanese, which was reassuring. I couldn't eat lunch on the boat due to a bit of seasickness, but the staff kindly packaged it for me to take home. I ate it at the hotel after returning, and it was light and delicious.

早起きクルーズに参加しました。
冬の海といえばクジラ。クジラツアーと悩んだのですが、
冬の海に賭けて、こちらのツアーを選択しました。
イルカツアーでしたが、クルーズのはじめはクジラが見えるポイントへも寄ってくれて、念願のクジラを見ることができました。親子クジラにもあえて満足!
そして、本題のイルカにもたくさんあえました。1頭見つけたと思ったら十数頭のイルカの群が現れて大興奮!
その後のシュノーケリングもお魚がたくさんみえました。
私はカナヅチなのですが、ライフジャケットのお陰で安心してシュノーケリングできました。
今回三世代で0歳~71歳の参加でしたが、3歳の息子もシュノーケリングを楽しみ、義両親もクルーズ&シュノーケリングを楽しんでいました。
スタッフは日本語の堪能な方がいて安心できました。
昼食はちょっと船酔いのため船内で食べられなかったのですが、スタッフのかたが配慮くださり、お持ち帰り用にまとめてくださいました。帰宅後にホテルで食べたのですがあっさりしていて美味しかったです。

Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

simply AWESOME!!

Reviewed by: Ms. Emz

I definitely had a great time, by far the BEST! Nice location with a spectacular view of the sunset, the nice green color of the famous Diamond Head, great dinner, and the entertainment was just awesome! You can’t ask for more.
Typical luau is on a buffet style dinner and sometimes you have to wait in a long line before you get your food but with Aha Aina, everything is conveniently served to your table, delicious appetizers, filling main entr&eacute;e, and multiple choices of beverages. Their servers are fast too, very friendly and accommodating. I can only say good things as I totally enjoyed it! I'll be sure to go again.

Gotta love the open bar! Had a great time and the food was very good. The fire dance was cool as well and the MC was very friendly and you knew all the stories he was telling were true. A true Hawaiian experience! Oh, for only another 20 bucks i'd recommend the premium seating so you are right up in the show!

Aha Aina Royal Hawaiian Luau - Waikiki Oceanfront Luau Dinner Show

Loved this luau!!!

Reviewed by: Andrew Valentine

This is far from any traditional luau experience where the typical and expected food and Polynesian show has been conceptualized to provide a very unique Hawaiian culinary and entertainment experience. The narrative is centered around history rather than mythology, unusual for a luau. They moved us indoors because they thought it was going to rain. The food was tasty and filling, service was good, show excellent and informative and the ambiance of this pink hotel was magic ... oh and it's open bar too!!!

Hands down the best EVER!

Reviewed by: Liana S.

I try to come to Hawaii as often as I can, and I have been to a lot of different luaus, and the Royal Hawaiian is without a doubt the best I have ever attended.

The food is utterly mouthwatering and they have the perfect combination of traditional and modern cuisine. I must say that the MC was great and had a fantastic way of intertwining stories about the food and the entertainment together. The dancing, singing and of course the fire knife dance just blew me away. So glad that I decided to do this!
