What is a Japanese-speaking crew guarantee? 日本語クルー確約とは？

Reviewed by: sr

I made a reservation because it was stated that there would be a Japanese-speaking crew, but there was no Japanese-speaking crew. However, the crew members did their best to entertain us, and even though I'm not good at swimming, I was able to swim with the sea turtles and had a great time. It was nice to swim with the sea turtles and the crew (who only spoke English) were kind, but it was a bit disappointing that the information was incorrect.

日本語クルー確約と記載があったため予約しましたが、日本語クルーはいませんでした。
しかし、クルーの方が一生懸命楽しませてくれたので、泳ぐのが苦手な私でもウミガメと泳ぐことができ、無事に楽しむことができました。
ウミガメと泳げたこと、クルー(英語のみ)が親切だったので、良かったですが、情報が違うのはちょっと、、、

The crew for Hawea deserved an extra round of applause. They are the epitome of friendly professionals. The day we did our snorkel trip, it was a bit choppy due to a storm that had passed the previous night. Unfortunately, it left several passengers pretty sick. The crew did an excellent job taking care of everyone, and making sure everyone stayed safe!

The Star of Honolulu crew knows exactly what they are doing. The night before our trip they called to ensure that we knew exactly where to begin our adventire. At 200 feet, the Star is steady in the morning sea. The crew is knowledgeable and helpful. We were given a brief lesson in whale anatomy, diet, and behavior before we set out. We understood the challenges and likely outcomes of our trip. We did see whales. We would have liked to have seen more, but we were well prepared for the visit we received. This was a a grest start to our vacation

ウミガメシュノーケリング　アリアⅡ号　フラやタトゥーシールなどのハワイ文化体験も！ソフトドリンク付き　ワイキキ送迎可＜3時間／日本語または英語／ケワロ湾発＞

It was packed with content, and I really enjoyed it! 内容が盛りだくさんで、楽しめました！

Reviewed by: みみ

There was singing, services like spam rice balls, hula dancing, and a lot of other activities besides sea turtle snorkeling, which made it enjoyable! Having a Japanese guide eased my worries. The sea was also very beautiful.

However, reflecting on my experience, I had never gotten seasick before, so I didn't take any motion sickness medication, but the boat rocked quite a bit and I started to feel unwell. I think it would have been better to take the medication. Perhaps reading the lyrics while singing contributed to my nausea as well. My husband and son went up to the second floor of the boat and said they really enjoyed feeling like they were driving the boat, so I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I could have done that too...

歌あり、スパムおにぎりなどのサービスあり、フラダンスもありで、ウミガメシュノーケリング以外のものも盛りだくさんで、楽しめました！！日本人ガイドさんがいてくれたので不安もありませんでした。海もとてもキレイ。
ただ自分への反省として、今まで酔ったことがなかったので酔い止めは飲まなかったのですが、結構船が揺れて気分が悪くなってしまいました。酔い止めは飲んだ方がよかったかなと思いました。もしかしたら、歌を歌う時に文字を読んだのも、酔いに繋がったのかも。夫と息子は船の2階に上がって、自分が船を運転している気分になってとても楽しめたと言っていたので、それも出来たらもっと楽しめたな…と思いました。

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

Very Nice and Relaxing Voyage

Reviewed by: Mark

All of the staff on the boat, from the Captain to the servers were all very nice, accommodating and service minded. Joshua did a great job answering questions and adding nuggets of knowledge about the trip. The ship was in great condition and prepared for the cruise, and it made for a very relaxing and comfortable voyage.

Unfortunately, we didn’t see any whales on this tour, but as a fisherman, I understand the difference between fishing and catching, and sometimes the fish just aren’t cooperating and ya just need to relax and enjoy the beauty. But, the most important thing is, as Larry Fleet says in the song “Where I Find God”, “you can’t find Peace Like this in a bottle or a pill”.

I would do this trip again in a heartbeat, and if we see a whale, that would just be lagniappe!

I had previously used the Star of Honolulu for the sunset dinner cruise, but this was my first time participating in another activity. I was able to see whales from a distance. Even if you don't understand English, they provide simple explanations like "at 3 o'clock," so there's not much to worry about.

From the boat, I could enjoy the urban skyline of Waikiki alongside the natural beauty of Diamond Head, which truly felt like a Hawaiian landscape. The light snacks, like pineapple banana bread and Kona coffee, were delicious, making this activity enjoyable both as a whale watching experience and simply as a cruise.

Viewing from a vantage point overlooking from a large ship. 大きな船から見下ろす感じで鑑賞

Reviewed by: yayuyo

We participated with four adults and a 0-year-old and a 3-year-old, bringing a foldable stroller. The elevator was available, so moving to the deck was not an issue, but we couldn't change diapers (we used the stroller to do so). The stroller was necessary for our subsequent plans, but we could leave our belongings at the table we were initially guided to, so it was great that it didn't get in the way while watching the whales.

I believe seeing the whales was purely luck, but in February, we were able to see them well! Fortunately, two whales swam back and forth quite close to the surface multiple times, allowing us to capture them with our eyes, not just on video or in photos. The captain announced in English, "They're at 10 o'clock!" or "9 o'clock!" and we moved based on that and hints from those around us. There was one person who could speak a little Japanese, so for those who are not confident in English, it might be a good idea to stick with that person. By the way, my family also saw dolphins and turtles... I'm envious!

On the way there and back, we had English-speaking guides. Both were cheerful individuals. Especially on the way back, they were flexible, changing our drop-off location and accepting requests for unscheduled stops. The tour ended before noon, and I was thinking about going to Ala Moana Shopping Center afterward, but I was unsure how to get there. However, since it was possible to get off the bus along the way, I wanted to make good use of that... but due to various circumstances, we ended up getting off at our hotel.

I want to come back again when the kids are older!

0歳3歳大人4人、折り畳めるベビーカー持参で参加しました。エレベーター完備なので、デッキへの移動は問題ないのですが、おむつ替えは出来ませんでした(ベビーカーを使って換えました)。その後の予定のために必要だったベビーカーですが、最初に案内されるテーブルに荷物を置いて行けるので、鯨を観る時には邪魔にならず良かったです。

鯨は完全に運だとは思いましたが、流石に2月！しっかり会えました。たまたま2頭が結構近くの海面を何度も行ったり来たりしてくれたお陰で、ビデオや写真だけに追われず肉眼でも捉える事ができて、ラッキーでした！船長さんが、10時にいるよ！とか9時方向だ！とか英語でアナウンスしてくれるのと、周りの人をヒントに移動しました。お一人、日本語が少し話せる方もいたので、英語苦手な方はその方にくっついていくのもありかもです。
ちなみに、私の家族はイルカとカメも見たとの事…羨ましい

行き帰りは英語のガイドさん。行きも帰りも、陽気な方達でした。特に帰りは、降りる場所を変更してくれたり、予定外の停車場所もリクエスト受け付けてくれたりと、臨機応変に対応していました。ツアーが昼前に終わるので、その後はアラモアナショッピングセンターでと考えていましたが、どうやって行くか悩んでいました。でも、バスの途中下車が可能との事でこちらを上手く活用…したかったのですが、色々あって結局自分達のホテルで降りました。

子供が大きくなったらまた来てあげたいです！

There is a regulation that prohibits approaching whales, so the boat does not get close to them. Therefore, it is not possible to take photos from a close distance like those on the explanation page. All announcements regarding whales are in English, so I do not recommend this for those who are not proficient in the language. Snacks and drinks are explained in English, so I couldn't figure out where they were located. Even with sunglasses and a hat, please be careful as the sunlight is very intense.

ホエールウォッチ　遭遇率の高い西オアフで鑑賞！アウラニやコオリナリゾートから車で20分　ソフトドリンク飲み放題付き＜西オアフ発／12/1～3/31＞

I saw a whale up close! クジラが間近に見えた！

Reviewed by: ハワイユーホエール

On the cruise departing from West Oahu at 1:30 PM, our family was the only Japanese participants. The crew only spoke English.

What was great was that we saw whales quite close right after departure, which was lucky. Of course, it wasn't as spectacular as the photos in the advertisements. The crew was friendly and even spoke to us, taking family photos for us. The views from the boat were also fantastic.

A bit disappointing was that we only saw whales three times in the first 30 minutes of the two-hour cruise, and the rest of the time was spent staring at the ocean surface. Considering that there are times when you might not see any whales, I might be being a bit greedy.

With the mindset that seeing whales is just a bonus, I think it would be perfect to enjoy a leisurely cruise off the coast of West Oahu as long as the weather is good.

西オアフから13時30分発の出航のクルーズで参加者の日本人は私たち家族だけでした。クルーも英語しかしゃべりません。
良かったのは、出発してすぐにかなり近くでクジラが見えたこと、これはラッキーでした。もちろん、広告の写真のようにはいきませんが。また、クルーもフレンドリーで日本人の私たちに声をかけてくれて、家族の写真を撮ってくれました。船上からの景色も最高でした。
少し残念だったのは、クジラが見えたのは2時間のクルーズのうち最初の30分くらいに3回だけで、残りは海面と睨めっこで終わったことでしょうか。クジラが見えないこともあるということを思えば、欲張りかもしれませんが。
クジラは見えればラッキーくらいの気持ちで、のんびり西オアフ島沖のクルーズを楽しむには、天候さえ良ければ最高だと思います。

ウミガメシュノーケリング　ホロカイ・カタマラン号　高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ！ソフトドリンク&スナック付き＜3時間／英語／ワイキキホテル発＞

Overall, I am satisfied! 総合的に満足！

Reviewed by: ひなまま

This time, my 9-year-old son, my husband, my mother-in-law in her 70s, and I participated together. The reception was a bit hard to find as it was located inside the Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort, across from the ABC Store. However, when I showed the voucher to the hotel staff, they kindly directed me to the reception area. When the time came, the staff gave a brief explanation (in all English), and then we all walked to the dock to board the boat. We were the only Japanese participants, which made us a bit anxious, but there were people from various countries joining us.

Once on the boat, the friendly staff explained snorkeling and talked to us in English. They patiently taught us how to inflate the life jackets, put on the fins, and wear the masks. As we listened to the explanations, we quickly arrived at the snorkeling spot and jumped into the sea! The beautiful ocean and numerous fish were amazing, and we even saw about five sea turtles up close! It was so close that it was surprising!

Additionally, soft drinks (like cola and Hawaiian drinks) and snacks were available for free, so we could eat whenever we felt a bit hungry.

After finishing snorkeling, we didn’t head back immediately but went sailing further out. We enjoyed many scenic views, even reaching the backside of Diamond Head. Sitting on the netting part of the boat while sailing was fantastic. We even spotted a whale, albeit briefly!

We had a very fulfilling time with snorkeling followed by sailing.

Here are some tips for those who will experience this:
1. If you are prone to motion sickness, be cautious as the boat can sway, and the waves during snorkeling can be intense. (I actually took motion sickness medication, but I still felt quite sick and had to return to the boat early. My son and husband, however, did not get sick and enjoyed the entire time.)
2. There are many other tours at the snorkeling spots, so there is a risk of getting separated if you get too absorbed in snorkeling. I made sure to stay close to our boat's staff.
3. Beginners in snorkeling may need to have some stamina. Fortunately, we were okay since we had some experience, but for first-timers, the wave height and moving to different spots might be challenging. However, it was nice that we could choose to return to the boat whenever we wanted.

I’ve mentioned three points, but overall, I am very satisfied!

今回、9歳の息子と私たち夫婦、70代ばあばの4人で参加しました。
受付はアウトリガーリーフワイキキビーチリゾートのホテル入って奥の方のABCストアの向かい側で初めてだと分かりずらいかもですが、ホテルのスタッフの方にバウチャー見せたら受付の場所を教えてもらえました。時間になるとスタッフの方が軽く説明をして（オール英語）、その後みんなで船着場まで歩き船に乗りました。日本人は私たちだけで不安でしたが、みなさん色々な国から参加されていました。
船に乗ると気さくなスタッフの方がシュノーケリングの説明や、色々英語で話してくれました。
ライフジャケットの空気の入れ方や、フィンの付け方、マスクの付け方など丁寧に教えてくれました。
説明を聞いているとすぐにシュノーケリングスポットにつき、いざ海へ！
綺麗な海とたくさんの魚、お目当ての海亀も五匹ほど間近で見れました！近すぎてびっくりするくらい！！
また、ソフトドリンク（コーラやハワイアンドリンク）や、スナックはフリーで食べれるので小腹が空いた時自由に食べれました。

最後シュノーケリングが終わった後はすぐに戻らず、さらに沖の方はセイリング。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏側の方までいきたくさんの景色を楽しめました。やっとの網の部分に座ってのセーリングも最高でした。
最後に少しでしたがクジラも見えました！
シュノーケリングの、後のセーリングでとても充実した時間が過ごせました。

以下体験する方へのアドバイス
1、乗り物酔いする方は中々船の揺れや、シュノーケリングの、波も激しいので気おつけてください。（実際私は酔い止め飲みましたが途中で酔いがひどくなり先に船に戻りました。※息子や夫は酔わないので終始楽しんでいました。）
2、他のツアーがスポットにたくさんいるのでシュノーケリングに、没頭するとはぐれる危険性があります。こまめに自分の船のスタッフさんを連れての近くにいるようにしました。
3、シュノーケリング初心者は体力が必要かも。幸い私たちはシュノーケリングをしていたので大丈夫でしたが、初めての方だと波の高さや、スポットに毎回移動するのが困難かも
でも、船に戻りたくなったら先に戻っていいのでそこは自由で自身の判断でよかったです

3点書きましたが総合的には大満足です！

During the ride to the meeting point, the guide talked a lot about the area and sightseeing, making the trip enjoyable.

On the boat, we were served delicious original cake and coffee before departure, which served as a nice breakfast. The original pineapple banana cake was moist and tasty.

During the whale watching, the guide indicated where the whales were based on the direction of the clock, so there was a high probability of seeing whales multiple times.

Not only did we see whales, but we were also lucky enough to see sea turtles up close!

The view from the boat was also amazing, and I was moved by the beauty of Diamond Head and the horizon.

It became a wonderful memory, and I am very satisfied.

How much of the whale was visible? クジラがどの程度見えたか

Reviewed by: ローズくん

I took TheBus to the meeting point. A round trip costs $7 (you can ride all day for $7). It's necessary to check how to ride TheBus and the routes in advance (you can find bus stop information on Google). Upon arriving at the meeting point, you will present your voucher (sent via email after booking) for check-in.

Once on board, there was an all-you-can-eat and drink option for fruit cake and coffee (though I couldn't eat that much). As for finding whales, the spouting is a key indicator. I witnessed spouting several times, but they rarely appeared on the surface. I participated with the last attached photo in mind, but this time, we only managed to see the tail fin during the watching experience.

集合場所にはTheBusで行きました。往復＄7でOKです（一日＄7で乗り放題なので）。TheBusの乗り方や経路（Googleでバス停が案内可能です）の調べ方は事前に確認が必要です。集合場所に到着するとバウチャー（予約完了後にメールで送られる）を提示して受付となります。
乗船後はフルーツケーキやコーヒーなどは食べ放題、飲み放題でした（そんなに食べられませんが）。クジラの探し方としては、潮吹きが目印となります。何回か潮吹きを目撃しましたが、海上に現れることは少なかったです。添付の最後の写真をイメージして参加しましたが、今回は尾びれを確認できる程度のウォッチング結果でした。

アトランティス潜水艦ツアー　ハワイの海底30mを進む海中アドベンチャー ＜ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ発／日本語ナレーション（要事前ダウンロード）＞

First submarine experience with small children. 初めての潜水艦、小さい子連れ

Reviewed by: ぴーちゃん

I was looking for activities to do in Hawaii with my 3-year-old, and I thought this would be a good option, so I made a reservation.

First, we took a larger boat to the diving point. During the ride, they pointed out things like, "Look, they're doing whale watching over there!" which made the journey enjoyable! We were also lucky to catch a glimpse of a sea turtle. My child had a great time.

Once we were in the submarine, we spent about 45 minutes underwater. While the adults enjoyed it, my active 3-year-old got a bit bored halfway through, and we ended up showing him a video for the last 10 minutes... (laughs)

However, for the first 15 minutes, he was excitedly saying things like, "The fish are waving at me!" I think it was a memorable experience for him since he even reenacted it during bath time when we got home!

Our family is an international marriage family living abroad, so English wasn't an issue for us. The guide was cheerful and shared jokes and interesting facts, which made it enjoyable, but those who are not confident in English might feel a bit left out. I heard that Japanese audio can be downloaded, but it might not always match what the guide is saying.

Overall, I think it was an activity that families with children can enjoy!

今回3歳連れで、ハワイでできるアクティビティを探していて、これはいいんじゃないかなと思って予約しました。

まず潜水ポイントまで、大きめの船で行きます。その時にも、結構「あそこでクジラウォッチングやってるよ、ほらあの方向」とか結構教えてくれて、その道のりも楽しみました！海亀もチラッと見えてとてもラッキーでした。子供もとても楽しんでいました。

潜水艦に潜ってからは45分ほど。大人は楽しめるのですが、うちの3歳動きたい坊やは途中でちょっと飽きてしまって、残り10半のところでビデオを見せることになってしまいました、、笑

でも初めの15分は「お魚さんが手振ってるー」とか言って楽しんでいる様子でした。
家に帰ってからもそれをお風呂で再現したりしているので、きっと心に残った経験だったんだろうなと思っています！

我が家は国際結婚ファミリーで、海外在住なので英語は問題なかったのですが、ガイドが陽気な方で、ジョークをとばしたりうんちくを言ってくれるので、楽しめましたが英語が苦手な方は置いてけぼり感があるかもしれません。日本語オーディオがダウンロードできるとのことでしたが、ガイドが話していることとは必ずしも一致しないと思います。

総じて、子連れで楽しめるアクティビティだったと思います！

It was amazing to have a drink included, and we could freely take and eat snacks. Above all, we saw so many whales and dolphins! We were the only Japanese people on board, but on the contrary, all the other passengers were really lively, and it was a lot of fun.

We saw whales jumping with their calves and slapping their tails on the water's surface many times, and the guide even said, "This is the best whale watching ever," so we were very satisfied. Additionally, they delayed our return to the harbor so we could see the sunset without any obstructions, which was perfect.

If you're going to Hawaii during whale season, I definitely recommend this!

I also saw reviews about feeling seasick, but we were fine. Some people might need motion sickness medication, but it seems that those who are relatively strong don't have any issues.

ワンドリンク付き、スナック菓子も自由に取って食べられて、何よりクジラとイルカがたくさん見られて最高でした！
日本人は私達だけでしたが、逆に乗客がみんなノリが良くとっても楽しかったです。
クジラは親子でジャンプしているところや尻尾を水面に打ち付けているところが何度も沢山見られて、ガイドの人も「今までで最高のホエールウォッチングだ」と言っているほどで、非常に満足しました。
また、夕陽が沈むのを最後まで見られるように予定時間よりも遅めに帰港してくれたので、サンセットも遮るものなくバッチリ見られました。
クジラのシーズンにハワイに行くならぜひおすすめします！

酔うという口コミも見ましたが、私達は大丈夫でした。人によっては酔い止めがあるのかもしれませんが、割と強い人は無くて大丈夫そうです。

【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＞

I saw whales multiple times! クジラが何回も見られました！

Reviewed by: がやがや

The weather was clear on the day of the trip, and I was a bit worried about whether we would be able to see whales, but there was no need for concern as we were able to see whales multiple times!

Onboard, we enjoyed cake for our meal, along with drinks like coffee and tea, making for a thoroughly satisfying two hours.

Not only did we see whales that day, but we also spotted dolphins, and we were able to enjoy the view of Waikiki from the sea, making it a valuable experience that went beyond just whale watching.

The energetic staff shared their knowledge about whales after we set sail and provided many interesting facts during the whale watching, which deepened my understanding of these magnificent creatures.

I definitely want to participate again the next time I visit Honolulu!

当日は快晴で、鯨もちゃんと見られるか少し心配していましたが、心配の必要が無かったくらいに何回もクジラを見ることができました！
船内ではケーキの食事や、コーヒーやお茶などの飲み物も飲むことができて、2時間たっぷりと満足することができました。
当日はクジラだけでなく、イルカも見ることができましたし、海からのワイキキの景色も堪能することができ、ホエールウォッチングにとどまらない貴重な体験をすることができました。
元気なスタッフさんたちが出航してからクジラについての知識や、ホエールウォッチング中もたくさんのクジラに対する豆知識を教えてくださり、とてもクジラに対する造詣を深めることができました。
またホノルルに行く時はぜひ参加したいです！

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: ロコモコ

The ship provided light snacks (coffee, tea, pineapple cake). The pineapple cake was delicious. The actual sailing time was about 2 hours. On this day, we were able to see two humpback whales. The whales came to the surface and spouted water at intervals of about 10 to 15 minutes, so I enjoyed chatting with the foreign people next to me (although I only understood about one-third of the conversation).

I didn't feel much movement while the ship was moving, but when the ship was stopped during whale watching, there was some rocking, so I think those who are prone to seasickness might need motion sickness medication. When the ship returned to the port, there were a few people on board celebrating their birthdays, and everyone sang "Happy Birthday," which felt very international and was really nice.

船内は軽食付き（コーヒー、紅茶、パイナップルケーキ）です。パイナップルケーキが美味しかったです。実際の乗船時間は2時間ほど。この日はザトウクジラを2頭見ることができました。クジラは約10〜15分間隔で水面上に来て潮吹きをしていたので、横の海外の人と談笑しながら楽しみました。（言葉は1/3程度しか理解できなかったですが、）
船が動いているときはそこまで感じなかったですが、ホエールウォッチング中の船が止まっているときは船揺れがあったりするので酔いに弱い人は酔い止めが必要かと思います。船が港へ戻る時に船内で誕生日だった人が数名いて、みんなでハッピーバースデーの歌を歌ってお祝いしていたのが海外らしくてとてもよかったです。

I saw a whale. クジラが見えました

Reviewed by: ヒロ

I could see it well from a distance. The weather was nice, and I appreciated that they were considerate even though I couldn't speak much English.

遠くからだったけど、よく見えました。天気も良く、色々英語が話せないことでも、気を使ってくれて良かったです

90-Min Morning Whale Watching Cruise with Transportation from Waikiki [Dec-Apr]

Fun trip.

Reviewed by: Mulemama

We had a fun time and would book with this group again. Only thing that would make it better is if we would have gotten to see some whales.
