Oahu
From the bus ride (Bow was a great and informative guide) to the food to the great show that was put on, it was an awesome time. Never a dull moment. The staff went about and beyond to make sure we had a great time. I would definitely recommend this luau.
Our tour was fantastic! Weather was gorgeous. We were picked up right on time. Patrick our tour guide/bus driver was very informative and fun. Included a tour of Honolulu with one stop off the bus because we were running ahead of schedule. This was a welcome plus to the trip. Would definitely recommend!!!
Finally... I was taken to a souvenir shop for black coral???
The worst!!
Everyone who participated came out empty-handed.
What was that???
You must be getting a rebate from the souvenir shop, right??
Is it the company??? Or the individual who took us there!!
As a business owner, I understand everything. (This is my advice)
I always use your company.
Next time, if there are no issues like this, I will use you again!!
最後に・・・黒サンゴ???のお土産屋さんに連れていかれた!!
最悪!!
参加した人が全員手ぶらで出て来ました。
あれは???
お土産さんからリベート頂いてますよね!!
会社か???連れてった個人がね!!
私は経営者だからすべてわかります。(私からのアドバイスです)
いつも貴社を使わして頂いてます。
次回は???こんな事がなければ使いますけどね!!
Thank you very much for participating in the tour.
However, we sincerely apologize for not being able to provide a satisfactory service.
Upon confirming with the local operating company, we received a report that we made a stop for a restroom break at a location called Tropical Farms, which sells macadamia nuts and is situated between Turtle Bay Resort and the hotel. We appreciate your understanding that this was used as a restroom break.
Thank you for your valuable feedback during your busy schedule.

In mid-March, there were hardly any whales. I wonder if you might see them depending on luck. It might be nice to think of the cruise as a way to see Diamond Head from the sea! If you can spot a whale, it feels like a bonus!
3月中旬と言う時期的な問題なのか、クジラはほとんどいませんでした。
運次第では観れるのかなとも思います。
クルージングで、ワイキキからダイアモンドヘッドを海から見えると思えば良いのかな!
クジラが見えればお得と思います!
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are very sorry that you were unable to fully enjoy whale watching this time.
We hope you will have the opportunity to enjoy it next time.
All of our staff look forward to welcoming you again.

We really enjoyed ourselves on this dinner cruise! The entertainment was great as well as the food! The view of the city from the cruise ship was beautiful. We would definitely do it again!
We just wanted to get out of Waikiki for half a day and this was the perfect tour. Jarod our tour guide was 100% local and had so much interesting local knowledge to impart. Took us to some great locations. Only thing I would say was a slight negative was that the jeep is probably not that comfortable for 4 adults. Initially it was just my partner and myself and we were so excited but then picked up another 2 males - so was fairly crammed in back seat. Would have liked it to be topless as well.
I felt like I waited quite a while before we set sail. Since it was a large ship, the view from the deck was wonderful. However, whales didn't appear for a long time, and when they finally did, it was from quite a distance. During my last trip in January, I was able to see mother and baby whales up close, so I was a bit disappointed and thought it was just bad luck this time. The cruise, with the whales not showing up, felt a bit slow, and some people were resting because they were tired. I experienced a bit of seasickness from the slow-moving ship, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take medication beforehand.
出港までに随分と待たされた印象でした。
大型船でしたので、デッキからの眺めは素晴らしいものでした。ただ、なかなか鯨が現れず、現れてもかなり遠いところからの見学となりました。前回、1月に参加した際には近い距離で親子鯨を見ることができましたので、期待外れとその時の運だと思いました。鯨がなかなか現れない中でのクルーズは、やや中弛みし疲れて休んでいる人もいらっしゃいました。ゆっくりと進む船に少々船酔いしましたので、酔い安い方は事前に薬を飲むことをオススメします。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very sorry that you were unable to fully enjoy the whale watching this time. We hope you will have the opportunity to enjoy it on your next visit. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you again.

I participated with my daughter. Both my daughter and I tend to get motion sickness, so we took some medication before joining. We usually do fine with regular boat rides, but we had to stop the boat and wait on the water for the whales to arrive. This is what made us feel nauseous.
All the announcements on the boat were in English.
The food seemed to be worth the price.
We were able to see a whale briefly, but I expected to see more, which is why I gave this rating.
娘と一緒に参加しました。私も娘も乗物酔いをする方なので、酔い止めを飲んで参加しました。通常の船の走行では大丈夫なのですが、クジラが来るのを待つために船を止め海上の上で待機するのです。これが、酔います。
船内の案内は全て英語です。
お料理は値段相応かしらという感じでした。
クジラは少しだけ見ることができましたが、もっと見れるんだと思っていたので、この評価となりました。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. Depending on the day, you may be able to observe active whales showcasing spectacular jumps, so please come back and challenge yourself again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

This was my second time participating, and I enjoyed it again.
Although the weather was bad, the movie location tour was enjoyable.
The beach is recommended when the weather is nice.
2度目の参加で、今回も楽しめました。
天気が悪かったですが、映画ロケ地めぐりは楽しめます。
ビーチは天気が良い時がおススメです。
Unfortunately, we were unable to encounter any whales during this cruise. However, the view of Hawaii from the sea was exceptional. I would definitely like to try again on a nice weather day.
残念ながら、今回のクルージングではクジラと遭遇する事は出来ませんでした。
でも、海から見るハワイの景色もまた格別でした。
またお天気のいい日に、ぜひチャレンジしてみたいと思います。

It was amazing, encourage others to go. We saw a tail slap, fins, and a whale clear the water! Enjoyed it immensely. The captain even stayed out a little longer because we saw so many.
Seeing Honolulu from the sea was amazing, but I didn't see any whales at all. Instead, I just kept seeing airplanes.
海から見るホノルルはすごく良かったんだけど、クジラが全く見れなかったぁ。代わりに飛行機ばっかり見てた。
Thank you very much for boarding with us this time. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you aboard again when you visit Hawaii.

I really wanted to see it live, so I decided to try whale watching for the first time. Since this is the only season to see them, I thought it would be a great opportunity.
In the morning, we headed to the port on a large bus, where a somewhat older but impressive cruise ship was docked. Other guests from different buses boarded, and we received explanations about the whales' behavior, how to respond when we spot them, and the best locations to find them.
As we set sail, we enjoyed a leisurely cruise while gazing at Waikiki Beach and heading out to sea just past Diamond Head. It seemed like the whales appeared somewhere, but I missed them. However, I was able to see a few blows and breaches from a distance afterward.
When everyone turned in unison toward the direction of the sighting, it created a strange sense of unity, and I really enjoyed it. Whether or not you see them is a matter of luck, but even just the cruising experience was highly satisfying, and I was able to spend the morning in a pleasant and meaningful way.
どうしても生で是非見てみたいというということで、初めてホエールウォッチングに申し込んでみました。この季節しか見れないということもあり、折角ならという思いもありました。
朝、大型バスで港に向かうと少し古めですが立派なクルーズ船が停泊していました。他のバスからのお客さんも乗り込み、生態や見つけた時の対応、出没スポットなどを説明いただきました。
出航すると、横目にワイキキビーチを眺めつつダイヤモンドヘッドの少し先の沖合までゆったりクルーズが続きました。
と、どこかで出現したようでしたが、見逃してしまいました。ただその後に何度かブローとブリーチングを遠目からですが、見ることができました。
出現した時に全員が一斉にその方向に向かうのは妙な一体感があり、とても楽しめました。見れるかどうかは運次第ですが、クルージングだけでも満足度は高く、午前中の時間を心地よく有意義に過ごすことができました。
Thank you very much for boarding with us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your experience. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you aboard again when you visit Hawaii.

We had such a good time. There was 7 of us in our group. Some of us had been to Oahu before and some had not. We wanted to take a smaller, more personal tour. So we could all be TOGETHER and learn some of the history of the islands while seeing all the sights.
Our driver was insightful, and fun. He answered all of our inquiries with so much knowledge.
Everyone of us enjoyed the whole tour. It was nice to be able to talk, visit, take pictures and not have to worry about driving and finding the way ourselves.
We didn't feel rushed... got to see everything at each stop.
Mahalo for a wonderful day...
Aloha Jill,
Thank you for choosing E Noa Tours! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time with us and we hope to see you again soon!

Tori enhanced the tour with her energy and knowledge! The stop at Fumi’s was my favorite. There just happened to be several hula dancers and a musician that sang for a couple that got engaged. The shrimp was ono! The ube popsicle, too! Waimea Falls was also a treat. There was even a Farmers Market with local fruit and food. Gotta try the ice cream bananas. So good!
At least 25 sightings some even swam under the boat. Food was also very good, and the staff were all customer focused and friendly.
I went in mid-February. I was worried because the weather was bad when we set sail, but we were able to see whales! The weather improved along the way, so we also got to see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head beautifully, which was amazing!
2月の中旬に行きました。出港した時は天気が悪く心配していたのですがちゃんとクジラを見ることが出来ました!天気も途中から良くなってきたのでワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドも綺麗に見れて最高でした!

I always enjoyed horseback riding in the canyon, but this time I participated in beach horseback riding. The seaside views were amazing, and I was very satisfied with this experience.
Along the way, I was able to shop in the town of Haleiwa and was introduced to a different delicious garlic shrimp place, allowing for a leisurely exploration that left me very satisfied. I would love to participate again.
いつも渓谷の乗馬を楽しんでいましたが、今回は海辺乗馬に参加させて頂きました。海辺の景色は最高で、こちらも大満足でした。
途中にハレイワの街で買い物したり、ガーリックシュリンプの今までとは違う別の美味しいお店を紹介して頂いたりと自由に散策出来て大満足でした。また参加させて頂きたいと思います。
Thank you for participating. Riding along the shoreline with the ocean breeze is our recommended plan to experience Hawaii 100%. I'm glad you enjoyed it. We look forward to seeing you again next time.
ご参加ありがとうございました。
潮風に吹かれてショアラインで進む乗馬は、ハワイを100%体感で当社のお勧めプランです。楽しんで頂けてよかったです。次回又お目にかかれるようお待ちしてます。
show was awesome
meal was not the best
we included transportation from Waikiki..ambassador did no entertainment on the bus
The weather was great, and we were able to see a lot of whales in a perfect location! There were many mother and calf whales, and we were captivated by the gentle commentary in English. We also got to see spouts and jumps, which had everyone applauding! It might depend on the weather and luck, but this day was filled with both, making it one of my best memories! ✨
天気も良く、絶好のロケーションで沢山のクジラを見る事ができました!
母子クジラが多く、優しい解説のアナウンス(英語)と共に見入りました。
潮吹きやジャンプも見る事が出来て、その時は皆が拍手喝采でした(^^)
天気と運による所もあるかも知れませんが(^^;)
この日は天気も運も良く、最高の思い出の1つになりました✨

This is a great tour for anyone who wants to learn how to use their camera better (even smartphone cameras!). I didn't feel rushed and because of our slower pace, our guide was able to delve deeper into explaining about the history and culture of each spot. Each shot became an opportunity to learn, which I really appreciated.
I'd recommend this tour for anyone who loves beautiful views and exploration at a slower pace. A camera is not necessary to enjoy yourself!
What a great shot Amy! Thank you for joining one of our tours. We hope to take you to more amazing locations around the island next time you are in the islands. Aloha
My wife and I went on the Sunset Dinner Cruise on the Star of Honolulu to celebrate our thirty-fifth wedding anniversary. This was one of the things we had scheduled in advance of our trip to Oahu, because we had heard nothing but good things about the cruise. They did not disappoint. From our meet and great with the captain to the final departure from the ship, everything was first class. The entire crew was extremely friendly and very accommodating. Our server, Germese, could not have been any nicer and very attentive. The food was delicious and the drinks were amazing. We also enjoyed the live entertainment during and after dinner. It did start to rain as we were heading back to the dock, but the crew took very good care of us and walked us out to our transportation with umbrellas. Would definitely cruise again if we get back to Waikiki. We would certainly recommend the Star of Honolulu to anyone who wants to be treated perfectly. Aloha!
This was my first trip to Hawaii with my mother, and I wanted to see various places, so I joined this tour. I found it very interesting that even in different countries within the same area, the cultures vary slightly. We had a great time with experiences like crafting, hula dancing, and meals included.
今回は母親と初めてのハワイだったこともあって、色々なところを見て見たかったので、このツアーに参加しました。
同じエリアの違う国によっても、少しずつ文化が違うことがすごく興味深かったです。物作り体験や、フラダンス、食事までついて来てとても楽しむことができました。
I had my first horseback riding experience in Hawaii, and it was a wonderful memory, especially being by the beach. The guide was kind and shared various information about Hawaii. I appreciated that we stopped at places not included in the plan. The guide also taught us the rules of horseback riding, so even as a beginner, I could enjoy it without any worries. If I have the chance again, I would love to participate.
ハワイで初めての乗馬でしかも海辺での体験でとてもよい思い出が出来ました。ガイドさんも親切で、ハワイのいろんな情報も教えて頂きました。プランにない場所も寄ってくれてよかったです。乗馬のルールやなんかもガイドさんからも教えてくれるし、初心者でも心配することなく楽しめました。また、機会があれば、参加したいです。
Thank you very much.
We look forward to your next participation. We also have the canyon course available.
ありがとうございました。
次回のご参加、お待ちしております。溪谷コースもご用意してますよ。
I was able to see the filming locations of the movie, which was a valuable experience. I had a fun day and would like to come back again.
映画の撮影場所を見ることができで、貴重な体験ができました。
1日楽しく過ごせて、また来たいと思いました。
Nice ride, kind staff. No whales. There was a promise to have a free new cruise if whales were not spotted, but I did not see the lady, who had to organise that. So, bit disappointing all in all
AC was our guide for this tour and he was funny and full of information. The lunch at the waterfall was not the best and very limited. We heard from other people that the lunch at the burger place was very good. It started to rain right after lunch which cut short afternoon activities. AC took us to the Dole plantation to try to make up for the rain. AC really tried to make the day better for us.
Joe was our tour guide for the Missouri tour and he was awesome. He took us below deck to see the heart and soul of the ship. We learned so much from Joe any history buff would love this tour.
Our tour guide was very informative. She talked about the Hawaiin lifestyle and how things have changed for them over the years. She was also very good about teaching us some of the Hawaiin language. A very important part of the culture. One thing would have made this better would have been a better lunch menu. The buffet at Kualoa ranch was limited.
