【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 it! 見れた!

Reviewed by: ゆかべりん

I didn't have high expectations since many people couldn't see them, but I was able to see them multiple times. The weather was nice, and even if you can't see the whales, you can enjoy the view of Waikiki from the sea. I watched from the third floor, but if you want to feel more of the impact, I think it's better to watch from the first floor.

It was a large boat, and the weather was good with calm seas, but it still rocked a bit. If you're not confident with rides, it might be a good idea to bring some medication.

見れない方も多かったので期待はしていませんでしたが何度も見れました。
お天気もよくたとえクジラが見れなくても海からのワイキキの景色を楽しめますよ。
3階から見ていましたがより迫力を感じたいなら1階から見る方がいいと思います。

大きな船だし天気もよく穏やかな海でしたがやはり揺れました。
乗り物に自信のない方は薬をもっていった方がいいかな。

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: そらそら

I was surprised that I could see that. The next day, when I went to Hanauma Bay, I encountered a whale! It was really impressive as it jumped multiple times!! If you go to Hanauma Bay early in the morning, you might get to see one too (laughs).

あれで見れたの??って感じでした。次の日ハナウマ湾に行ってきたら普通にクジラに遭遇しました。そっちの方が何回も飛んだりしていたのですごい迫力でした!!
ハナウマ湾を朝早くから行ったら会えるかも(笑)

【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 excitement is off the charts! 盛り上がりが半端ない!

Reviewed by: ltarumi501

Dinner was late, but it was delicious and I finished it all. Around 11:50 PM, everyone started moving upstairs for the countdown. It was an amazing atmosphere, different from the countdowns in Japan. The fireworks were beautiful and I could see them well as they went off right in front of me. I'm glad I participated since it was a New Year's Eve special event!

ディナーの時間は遅いですが美味しく完食しました。23時50分ころからカウントダウンのため、みんな上階へ移動し始めます。日本でのカウントダウンとは違ったすごい盛り上がりでした。花火はとてもきれいで目の前で上がるのでよく見れました。大晦日限定なので参加して良かったと思います!

I was able to see it, at least! 一応見れた!

Reviewed by: ちゃお

It's not a full view, but I was able to see it to some extent. The captain makes an announcement saying, "You can see it in the direction of [specific time]," so if you go to that side, you can catch a glimpse, but it was difficult to take a photo. It would have been nice to see it from the intended side, but it's all up to luck.

ガッツリという訳ではないが、一応見ることが出来ました。キャプテンが「何時の方向に見えます」というアナウンスをしてくれるので、そちらの側に見に行くとちらっと見えるのですが、写真を撮るのは難しかったです。
狙った側で見れるとよかったのですが運次第ですね。

The best New Year's Eve. 最高の年越し

Reviewed by: Peanuts Club

It was by chance that I had a window seat at the bow of the ship, so I could see outside very well. However, it was a windy day, so the rocking was quite intense. The food was also very delicious, especially the thick beef, which was particularly tasty.

たまたまなのか、船首の窓際席だったので、外が良く見えた。ただ、風が強い日だったので揺れも最高だった。料理もとても美味しく、特に厚めのビーフは特に美味しかった。

If I can't see the whales, I want a refund. クジラを見ることが出来ないなら、返金を。

Reviewed by: ひびき

Initially, it was promised that if whales were not seen, re-boarding tickets would be distributed, but most people did not receive the re-boarding tickets. I think it's almost impossible to ride again given the length of stay. From the beginning, they should have suggested a half-price refund if whales were not seen.

最初の約束では、クジラが見れない時は、再乗車券を配布とありましたが、ほとんどの人は再乗車券は受け取りませんでした。だって滞在日数から再度乗車する事は、ほとんど不可能だと思います。最初から、クジラを見れない時は、半額返金などを提案すべきです。

It was good my friends and I really enjoyed it. The view was breathtaking & the crew on board were so friendly and helpful. I am a picky eater so the food was alright to me however my friends really enjoyed it. If prone to seasickness, I recommend you take medication before getting onto the boat.

Sunset Dinner Cruise Christmas

Reviewed by: Megan

Our family enjoyed the sunset dinner cruise. Unfortunately it was cloudy so we didn’t have much of a sunset, but like others mentioned you just had to get up and go out on the deck as they don’t make any announcement. The food was okay. Service was great. The entertainment was good as well. But i’m not sure It was worth the money so I probably wouldn’t do it again.

Good tour around the city and the hawaii 5 o locations. But often we only drove by with no stop in front of the spots. Interesting background information about the show and making of.
Unfortunately our guide amy had obviously not a good day. We had the feeling, that she was not really "with us".
She was pretty uninterested to tell more than asked and seemed uninvolved.

Step Inside McGarrett’s House on Oahu - Exclusive Access Hawaii Five-0 Tour & Meet Cousin Flippa

so much fun and loved the sights as a major fan

Reviewed by: Anne Veghel

As a major fan, accompanied by a moderate fan indulging me, we both had a great time. Amy made sure all had fun. We had a lot of laughs, she shared some fun stories and we got to see all the sights. All of O'ahu seems to be a Hawaii Five-O set, but the key spots and how those get adjusted for better TV are all in the tour. High light of course is the time we got to spent at the mcgarrett house. The owners of the bayer estate are so lovely and welcoming, a hugh Mahalo to them. We were extra lucky, because as soon as we got into the car we were invited to a preview of the 200th episode 3 days later at the mcgarrett house. that was the highlight of our trip. We had such a good time and got to talk to Dennis Chun and his lovely wife Laura. Both were so friendly. The Episode was amazing and at our tour we already saw the house which was used in filming that episode. We were just in time to also see the restaurant before the plot line ended. Even if you only know about the show and are not a fan the tour is highly recommended because you're guaranteed to have fun and see lots of O'ahu As a fan you're guaranteed to have the best time of your life, because apart from an actual meet and greet this is the best way to connect to your favourite show. what other show has real life sets you can actually visit?!? Amy, you rock! Next barefoot bottle is on us :-)

I couldn't see it... 見れなかった・・。

Reviewed by: u3sk

In the end, I couldn't see anything at all, neither shadow nor figure. It seems like they tried their best, but... I received a ticket for the next boat ride, but since it was the last day of my trip, I couldn't use it. The boat was fairly large and not crowded, so I could go out on the deck or sit comfortably in a chair. It felt like a drive on the water in pleasant weather.

結局、何も影も姿も、見ることはできませんでした。
頑張ってくれたみたいですが・・。
次回乗船チケットをもらいましたが、旅行最終日だったので、使えませんでした。
船はそこそこ大きくて、満員でもないので、甲板に出たり、ゆったり椅子に座ったり。
気持ちのよい天気の中、船でドライブ、といった感じでした。

Only for the die hard fans

Reviewed by: Jarieka

While the tour was quite good, I would only reccomend it for the die hard fans. We got to see a lot of areas where they filmed, but it was predominantly from the van we were driven around in.
The hosts, while very knowledgable, seemed to be more interested in how they have been involved in the show and sharing stories of there time working with the actors.

The only real highlight of the whole trip was going to the location of Steve McGarrett's home, and we were only there for a maximum of maybe 10 minutes.
