【冬季限定!1/3~3/21】ホエールウォッチ スターオブホノルル号 1500名乗船可能なハワイ最大のクルーズ船!軽食&ドリンク付き<ワイキキ送迎可>

It was fun. 結果楽しかった

Reviewed by: ずきん

We participated as a couple.
It was the rainy season, but we were blessed with clear skies, making it a great day for a cruise!

About 80% of the participants were Japanese, and 20% were from Western countries.

We took a bus to the boat, and after getting off, we were guided by the staff to our seats, so being towards the front allowed us to sit by the window.

The air conditioning on the boat was the strongest I experienced during my time in Hawaii, so it would have been nice to have something to wrap around me. However, you can help yourself to warm drinks.

Seeing whales depends on luck, but we were able to see them from a distance. Having seen them up close before, I wished we could have seen them a bit closer this time. But it was still exciting!

The meal was a buffet, and everything was delicious. However, the desserts were quite sweet, so I left some behind.

After the meal, we experienced making a lei. I had never done it before, so it was fun! You can take it home with you. The cost is included in the tour.

This was more than just whale watching; it was a really great cruise experience!

夫婦で参加しました。
雨季の時期でしたが快晴に恵まれ、クルーズをするにはとてもいい日でした!

参加者は日本人8割、欧米人2割といった感じです。

バスで船まで向かうのですが、バスを降りてからスタッフに連れられ船に向かうとそのまま順番に席に案内されるので、前のほうにいたおかげで窓側に座ることができました。

船内はハワイで過ごした中で1番冷房が効いていたので、はおるものがあればいいかなと。でも温かい飲み物をセルフで飲めます。

クジラはその日の運ですが、遠くで見ることができました。以前に近くで見たことがあるだけに、もう少し近くで見たかったです。でもやっぱり興奮します!

食事はバイキングで、どれもおいしかったです。ただスイーツはかなり甘いので、残してしまいました。

食事の後にレイの花輪づくりを体験しました。経験したことがなかったので、楽しかったです♪そのまま持ち帰れます。金額はツアーに入ってます。

今回はホエールウォッチングとしてより、クルーズとしてはすごくよかったです!

Thank you very much for participating in our whale watching lunch cruise.

We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the whale watching, lunch, and lei-making activities.

Whether or not you see whales, and how close they are, really depends on the luck of the day, so we hope you will come again next time and have a closer encounter!

ノースショア(ハレイワ)観光 ハレイワタウンで3時間の自由散策+ドールプランテーション!海辺の絶景を楽しめる乗馬付き(70分)プランあり<1日/送迎付き>

North Shore Horseback Riding Experience ノースショア乗馬体験

Reviewed by: rockey

The usual choice for horseback riding was Kualoa Ranch, but since the reviews for their horseback riding weren't very good, I searched online and found this ranch that offers a tour with transportation included. I had been using Alan for optional activities in Hawaii, so I made a reservation.
The horses here are very smart, and even beginners can enjoy horseback riding with peace of mind. They walk at a very leisurely pace, which might be a bit unsatisfying for experienced riders, but I was able to take photos with one hand while enjoying the scenery in the mountains.
The trail goes through some very enchanting trees, and the view of the North Shore from the top of the mountain was absolutely beautiful.
I think it's definitely an experience worth having when you visit Hawaii.

乗馬の出来る牧場はクアロア牧場とお決まりでしたが、乗馬の評判はあまりよくないので、ネットで検索していたらこちらの牧場で送迎つきのツアーを見つけました。以前からハワイのオプショナル利用はアランを使っていたので予約しました。
ここにいる馬達はとても賢くて初心者でも安心して乗馬が楽しめます。とてもゆつくりしたペースで歩くので経験者には物足りないかもしれませんが山の中の景色を楽しみながら片手で写真を撮ることもできました。
山道ではとても幻想的な木々の中を通っていき山の上から見るノースショアの海は最高に綺麗でした。
ハワイに行ったら是非とも経験した方がいいと思います。

Within five minutes of departing, a whale appeared, and we were all so excited! At first, we could only see it from a distance, but eventually, the whale came closer, and cheers erupted all around the boat. It's also reasonably priced, so I highly recommend it!

出港して5分もしないうちにクジラが現れ、大興奮!

We participated with 10 family members and friends.
We were able to see whales, of course!
The staff promptly informed us when the whales appeared.

There were also staff members who spoke Japanese, so they provided interesting and easy-to-understand explanations in Japanese.

In addition to the whales, our family participated in a hula dance lesson, which was a lot of fun.
I also joined a ukulele lesson with my friends.

Additionally, they provided live music, which kept things engaging.

The food was better than I expected.

Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor Tour & Circle Island Sightseeing

Excellent!

Reviewed by: Linda

Having lived on Oahu for 5.5 years in the 50s, my sister and I were anxious to visit old haunts, outside the Waikiki area and this tour certainy accomplished that for us. Our guide, Greg, went above and beyond the list of attractions/sights we were scheduled to see and had such a breadth of knowledge about the islands' history, culture and general Hawaiian topics that we came away from the tour much more informed than when we started it. He was witty, caring and very dedicated to his job, making all his passengers feel very special for a day.

From giving us hints about how to get the best seats on the boat for the Arizona Memorial in the morning until the time he dropped us off - exhausted - at the end of the day, touring with Greg was like being part of an extended family.

If there were more than 5 stars, this tour and the guide would get them. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves - on the first day of our 10-day trip - and set the standard by which we judged the others we took

Star of Honolulu Whale Watching Cruise with Banana Bread & Coffee | 2-Hour Morning Tour [Jan-Mar]

Great Time!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We went with a group of friends this past Saturday on the Early Bird cruise and it was fabulous! We saw whales pretty much the moment we left the harbor and we got lots of pictures. It wasn't too crowded at all. The ship is very nice, very well maintained and clean. The crew was very friendly and helpful.

I recommend motion sickness medication if you're prone to it. I am, and even though I took it beforehand I still got seasick.

We saw a pod of three whales, dolphins, and albatross. A very neat experience for us and the kids.

Pearl Harbor Battleship Missouri General Admission Tickets & Guided Tours

USS Missouri

Reviewed by: Rhonda

I was hesitant whether or not to go to the USS Missouri while visiting Pearl Harbor because we did not have a full day to spend there. I am glad I did. We did the tour on our own, which I would recommend if you are on a time restraint as we were. We were able to stop and listen to some of the guides as they were communicating with their groups and overall had a great experience for the cost.

I guess this is about it. こんなもんでしょう

Reviewed by: ゴマッタ

I participated in whale watching during my mother and aunt's first trip to Hawaii, as it was the season for it. If you're expecting the spectacular jumps often seen in whale photos, you might be disappointed. However, if you approach it with the mindset of leisurely enjoying a cruise in Hawaii, you might feel lucky and satisfied to see some whales as a bonus.

They made sure we could see the whales well by moving around to chase them, and with lunch included, I think the price is reasonable.

I chose this tour because it was offered in Japanese, and while there were Japanese announcements during the cruise, it was disappointing that the staff's explanations about the whales right after departure were only in English.

母と叔母の初めてのハワイ旅行でホエールウォッチングのシーズンだったので参加しました
よくクジラの写真であるような 豪快なジャンプを期待していたらだめです。
ハワイのクルーズをのんびり楽しむくらいの気持ちで参加すれば、おまけにクジラが見られてラッキーと満足できるかも

ちゃんとクジラが良く見られるように、クジラを追いかけ移動もしてくれたし、ランチもついてこの値段だったらOKなのではないでしょうか

ただ、日本語対応コースだったので参加したのですが、航行中のテープアナウンスは日本語もありましたが、出航直後のスタッフのクジラの説明など英語のみだったのが残念でした

I saw it, but... 見えましたが・・・

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I saw the tail fin while the water was splashing and the back was moving. Considering that there are times when you can't see anything at all, I think I was lucky, but it still feels unsatisfying if you can't see the whole jump. Even though the time is long, around 2 to 3 hours, it can get sleepy since there isn't much movement. It might be nice for enjoying a leisurely time on the sea.

潮吹きと背中が動いているところ、尾びれが見えました。全く見えないこともあることを考えるとラッキーだったのだと思いますが、やはりジャンプなど全体が見れないと物足りないです。時間が2~3時間と長い割に、特に移動をしないので眠くなります。のんびり海の上の時間を楽しむにはいいかも。

Royal Star Pearl Harbor Experience with Tickets to Arizona Memorial & City Tour

Well worth it! Recommend.

Reviewed by: Sunbrn

The tour and the tour bus were excellent. We got tickets to the Arizona shuttle/tour as advertised and the driver was fun and informative. Worth the price for the "front of the line" tickets at the Arizona. Family of 6 really enjoyed the experience and it was the right duration for the youngest (5).

The instructions for pickup at 635am were vague enough to cause a little confusion for us because the hotel where we were picked up is closed and under renovation. And the point of contact number on the voucher was not answered at that time of the morning to make sure we were at the correct location. A little "personal attention to detail" giving more information would have gone a long way to make the pickup less stressful. This is our only complaint... minor.

I encountered whales and dolphins! クジラ&イルカに出会えました!

Reviewed by: YUKO

On February 4, 2011, I participated in a whale watching tour with a friend and my friend's mother, making it three of us.

I had joined a dinner cruise on the Star of Honolulu last summer, so this was my second time on this ship.

Since the season and time of day were different from my last visit, I was deeply moved by the view of Waikiki and the lush Diamond Head from the sea.

Even when I thought I could enjoy this scenery without seeing any whales, a whale appeared, and I was further touched to see dolphins swimming alongside the whale, playing together.

I would love to book a tour with Alan1 again.

Thank you for the wonderful memories!

Interesting Day

Reviewed by: Gary

I have booked all my Pearl Harbor Tours over the years with Hawaii Activities and have always had a great day. This was a new tour being offered and I thought that it would be the perfect tour that would allow me to visit four major WWII sites in one full comprehensive day. It met all of my expectations and then some. The actual tour was very informative and moving. Our driver/guide, Francis, did a fantastic job during a day filled with problems. First, the bus was running late with all the different pick-ups and it didn’t reach my hotel until a half-hour after my scheduled pick-up time. Then we had to meet another bus and transfer all those people to our bus. This made us later yet and put us right in the middle of the slow moving rush hour morning traffic. When we finally got to the Arizona Memorial we were running behind. Then when it was our turn to finally enter the movie room, the electricity went out in the entire Visitor Center. We had to skip the movie and head right

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in a whale watching cruise on the large cruise ship Star of Honolulu, with about 200 people on board, including around 20 Japanese passengers.

I thought it would be a group activity with Japanese staff, but there were no Japanese staff on board. The staff explanation about the activities in the cabin before departure was only in English. After departure, we went out on deck to wait for the humpback whales while enjoying the view of the sea and Waikiki. During this time, a recorded explanation about whale ecology was played over the speakers, alternating between English and Japanese. It was mentioned that there were staff who understood Japanese on board, but they advised to ask questions individually.

The whale sighting rate is said to be over 90%, but if you happen to be in a direction where whales are not appearing or if the timing doesn't work out, you can self-report if you didn't see any whales, and they will issue a certificate allowing you to board again for free during the season.

I heard that whales appeared about twice during the trip, but I thought they were too far away to see, so I got the certificate. The staff were friendly and accommodating, always smiling.

鯨出現率は90%以上、とのことですが、出現方角でないところにいたり、タイミングが合わなかったりと、個人的に見られなかった場合は、自己申告で、シーズン中に無料で再度乗船できる証明書を発行してもらえます。

【冬季限定!1/3~3/21】ホエールウォッチ スターオブホノルル号 1500名乗船可能なハワイ最大のクルーズ船!軽食&ドリンク付き<ワイキキ送迎可>

A whale! I saw it! I'm so moved! クジラ!見えた! 感激!

Reviewed by: bobby

It was a large ship, so there was no rocking, and it was a comfortable cruise. At the point where we could see whales, I was nervously staring at the surface of the water when one of the crew shouted, "Whale!" When I looked in the direction he pointed, I saw two whales jumping and showing their tails as they dove. I was thrilled to see "real whales" for the first time.

大きな船だったので揺れもなく、快適なクルーズでした。
クジラの見えるポイントで、ドキドキしながら海面を凝視していたら、クルーの一人が、”ホエール!”と叫んで指差した方向をみると、2頭のクジラが、ジャンプし、潜る際に尾びれも見せてくれました。初めての”リアルクジラ”に感激しました。

Thank you very much for participating in our cruise. It seems that on the day you joined us, you were able to see whales jumping, and the whales you saw that day were quite active. Watching wild whales up close is always an emotional experience, isn't it? We, the staff, look forward to your next visit.

お客様がご参加された日は、鯨のジャンプが見られた様で、その日見られた鯨はアクティブな鯨だった様ですね。
間の前で見る野生の鯨はいつ見ても感動的ですよね。

Whale Watching Cruise ホエールウォッチング クルーズ 

Reviewed by: MM1221

I participated in a cruise that departed at 8:45 AM just a few days ago.

On our boat, there were relatively few Japanese people, and most of the participants were foreign families and groups of friends, but I felt very comfortable joining.

There were friendly foreign staff who spoke Japanese, and they helped with anything that was difficult to understand. The whale watching guide was provided in both English and Japanese.

Since it was a plan without meals, coffee and sandwiches were available for an additional charge of $3. Water and hot water were free.

The announcements for whale sightings indicated the direction in terms of clock positions, saying things like "There is a whale at 3 o'clock." When the announcement was made, everyone rushed to the deck to see.

We were only able to see whales twice, but we went quite far out, so the scenery was great and I was very satisfied.

I went to Aloha Tower on my own. While waiting for the bus at the Saratoga bus stop in Waikiki, the bus didn't come as expected. Just as I started to feel anxious, a female taxi driver passed by, and I was able to go from Waikiki for about $16 plus tip.

There is also a hotel pickup option, and after this tour ends, it returns to a hotel in Waikiki, so if you want to go somewhere else from Aloha Tower, I recommend going on your own.

I also easily found Pier 8.

Best Way to Start Off Vacation

This was the best tour to start out a trip to Oahu. It let you see what all the island has to offer so you can decide what you want to go back and see more of.

【2025年12月31日限定】スペシャル・ディナークルーズ スターオブホノルル号 年越しカウントダウンと花火観賞で盛大にお祝い!選べるディナープラン

The best countdown. 最高のカウントダウン

Reviewed by: arissa

This time, we added a window-side seat with a bottle of champagne as an option. Since the surrounding guests were mostly couples, it seemed unusual to have two women, but I recommend a couple's seat since you will be seated at a round table. The meal was luxurious, featuring a whole lobster! We were able to enjoy a wonderful countdown while watching fireworks rising towards Waikiki. Additionally, the hula dance show was impressive, and I wished I could have watched more. Alan.1 offers tours at lower prices compared to other tour companies. They accommodated us at a lower price this time as well due to such circumstances. I have posted an article about the cruise on my blog. I hope it conveys some of the fun we had. Please take a look if you're interested! ♪

今回はボトルシャンパン付の窓際席をオプションとして追加しました。
周りはカップルばかりだったので女性2人は珍しいようでしたが、円卓では相席になってしまうのでカップル席をオススメします♪
お料理はロブスター1尾付で豪華です!
ワイキキ方面に上がる花火を見ながら素晴らしいカウントダウンが出来ました。
また、フラダンスショーは見応えがあって、もっと見ていたかったです。
alan.1では他のツアー会社より高いツアーは安くして下さいます。
今回もそのような事情でお安く対応して下さいました。
クルージングの記事をブログに載せています。
少しでも楽しさが伝わるといいです。
良かったら見てみてくださいね♪

Pearl Harbor Battleship Missouri & Arizona Memorial Tour - Roberts Hawaii

Need more time on MO

Reviewed by: Bruce

Arizona part was incredible. Missouri tour a little disappointing since my dad served on the ship & I wanted to know more. Tour kind of rushed us thru. Need more time on the MO & less time in Punchbowl.
