This was my first luau and I really didn't know what to expect. I was greatly impressed with the quality of the program, the enthusiasm of the performers and the outstanding cuisine we enjoyed for the meal. The evening with the Toa Luau group was an unforgettable highlight to our visit to Hawaii. In addition to the luau, we had the opportunity to hike to the waterfall while enjoying the beauty of the botanical garden. As I said, the whole experience was unforgettable.

The two shuttle buses departed on time for the cruise terminal. After boarding, we enjoyed a casual buffet dinner and a Polynesian dance performance, where everyone danced together, making the cruising experience fly by. The entertainment was engaging and kept us captivated. I'm glad I participated.
バス二台の送迎車は時間通りに出発してクルーズターミナルへ。
乗船後カジュアルスタイルのバッフェの夕食そしてポリネシアンダンスのパフォーマンスが有り皆んなで踊ったりしてあっという間のクルージングでした。

Our driver was wonderful and funny. I appreciate that he called us to tell us he had arrived at the pick-up spot. We didn’t see the van pull up and he was parked behind us. The hike is demanding especially in the rain. It was quite slippery on the way down. We had already purchased ponchos, but our driver had some for sale. We were able to complete the hike easily within the timeframe, and had time to stop in the gift shop. Just be aware of the weather and plan accordingly. Good shoes are a must!

I participated because I wanted to see whales. I was able to enjoy watching the whales swimming alongside the boat. Although I didn't see any jumping whales, I could feel the presence of these large animals as they spouted water and showed their tails, making it a tour filled with the dynamism of nature.
The view from the boat was also very nice, allowing me to enjoy a panoramic view of Waikiki, the mountains, and Diamond Head from the sea side. The pineapple banana cake on board was also very delicious.

I participated using the hotel shuttle service. A large bus came, and it was very comfortable.
Breakfast was very delicious.
I was able to see a mother and baby whale!
Since it was a four-story boat, it was interesting to see the whales from the top and from below, as the view was different.
The top deck swayed quite a bit, so I think those who are prone to motion sickness might need some medication.
There were no staff members on board who spoke Japanese, but the necessary announcements were made in Japanese, so it wasn't much of a problem.
The view of the streets of Hawaii from the boat was also very beautiful.

I participated in the sunset dinner cruise on the Star of Honolulu for my honeymoon, marking my first cruise in 42 years (laughs). As I boarded, I reminisced about the good old days when we took photos on the deck. After listening to the whale watching explanation and enjoying some tea and cake, we headed to the deck. We first admired the stunning views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea, and soon the crew spotted a whale and informed us. We could only see its back, but it was spouting water. After that, we were able to see it several more times. The crew was very friendly, the weather was great, and it turned out to be a comfortable and enjoyable cruise, creating wonderful memories of Hawaii. Next time, I hope to bring my grandchildren along as well.

クルーの方はとてもフレンドリーで天気もよく快適なクルーズで楽しいハワイの思い出になりました。次回は孫たちも一緒に乗船したいと思っています。

This was my first time in Hawaii during this season, and I wanted to see whales at least once, so I participated in the tour. Boarding started at 8:15, and first, we took a commemorative photo by group. During the tour, the staff will ask if you'd like to purchase a photo ($26).
Before departure, we helped ourselves to pineapple banana bread and drinks (coffee, tea, water, and other beverages are available for a fee). While we were eating, the naturalist provided explanations about the whales (no explanations in Japanese).
Since it was a large boat, the rocking wasn't too bad, but if you're worried, it's advisable to take motion sickness medication. Shortly after departure, whales appeared, and there was a great cheer from everyone on board! The boat slowly approached the direction of the whales and stayed there for a while. It seems we couldn't get closer than 100 yards.
Although we couldn't see them jumping, we were able to see them spouting water and their pectoral fins and tails multiple times. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea was also lovely. We returned to Aloha Tower around 11:00.
The women's restroom had about 30 stalls, and there was also a wheelchair-accessible restroom. It seems there are no public restrooms at Aloha Tower, so it's better to take care of that on the boat.
I signed up without transportation and took THE BUS to the location. It took about 30 minutes on bus number 2 from Kuhio Avenue to downtown, and then about a 15-minute walk to Aloha Tower. On the way back, the bus to Ala Moana Center passes by Aloha Tower, so I enjoyed shopping and lunch right after the tour.
この時期のハワイは初めてで、行くなら一度は鯨を見てみたいと思い、参加しました。
8:15に乗船開始し、まずは、グループ毎に記念撮影をし、ツアーの途中で、スタッフの方が購入するか否かを声かけしてくれます。($26)
軽食は、出港前にセルフ形式でパイナップルバナナブレッドと飲み物(コーヒー・紅茶・水・その他の飲み物は有料)を取りに行き、食べている最中にナチュラリストから鯨に関する説明があります。(日本語の説明はなし。)
大型船なので、揺れはそれ程でもありませんが、心配な方は、酔い止めを。
出港後、すぐに鯨が現れ、船内は大歓声!船は、ゆっくり鯨がいる方向へ近づき、しばらく留まってくれます。100ヤード以内には近づくことはできないようです。
ジャンプする姿を見ることはできませんでしたが、潮を吹いたり、胸びれや尾ひれは何度も見ることができました。
海から眺めるワイキキの町並みとダイヤモンドヘッドも良かったです。
11時位にアロハタワーに帰港しました。
トイレは、女性用は、個室が約30弱程あり、車椅子対応のトイレもありました。
アロハタワーには、公衆トイレは無いようなので、船で済ませた方が良いと思います。
今回、送迎なしで申込み、現地まではTHE BUSで行きました。クヒオ通りから2番のバスでダウンタウンまで約30分、そこからアロハタワーまで徒歩で約15分程です。
帰りは、アラモアナセンター行きのバスがアロハタワーを通るため、ツアー参加後にそのままショッピングとランチも楽しみました。
Whales appear suddenly, so be sure to keep your eyes on the sea until you return to port. Even in winter in Hawaii, the sun is strong, so I think it's a good idea to apply sunscreen.
鯨は、突然現れるので、帰港するまで海から目をそらさないようにしましょう。
冬のハワイでも陽射しは強いので、日焼け止めは塗っておいた方が良いと思います。
