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。

The pick-up and equipment rental were completely problem-free. The driver assisted us while translating into Japanese using an app.
Thank you, Fernando!
The water clarity was quite high and beautiful, so it was worth seeing.

送迎と装備レンタルは全く問題なしです。ドライバーがアプリで日本語翻訳しながら対応してくださいます。
Fernandoありがとう！
水の透明度はかなり高く美しかったので見る価値ありです。

First of all, the rich experience is amazing! Since it's a hotel in Waikiki, it's easy to walk back after your stay. When we arrived, we were greeted in Japanese and given flower leis before the buffet started. During the meal, there was a hula dance show, which was a lot of fun. The buffet was delicious, and the desserts were also tasty, so I was very satisfied. Additionally, towards the end of the buffet, they offered a short hula dance lesson, which everyone enjoyed, and it was really great.

The main show was very luxurious, and I was entertained from start to finish without getting bored. In particular, the fire performance was breathtaking. I want to see it again the next time I come. At the end of the show, there was a photo opportunity with the performers, allowing us to take a two-shot, which became a wonderful memory! I definitely want to go again.

まず、リッチが最高です！ワイキキのホテルだと徒歩で行けるので帰りも楽です。
着いたら日本語で受付をしていただき、お花の首飾りをかけてもらってからビュッフェが始まります。ご飯中もフラダンスのショーがあり、楽しかったです。ビュッフェは味も美味しく、デザートも美味しかったので満足でした。また、ビュッフェの終盤には短時間でフラダンスレッスンをしてくださり、参加者みんなで楽しめてとてもよかったです。
本番のショーはとても贅沢で、最初から最後まで飽きることなく楽しめました。
特に、火を使うパフォーマンスは圧巻でした。次に来た時も見に行きたいと思いました。ショーの終わりには、パフォーマーの方との写真撮影タイムがあり、ツーショットを撮れるので思い出になりました！
また行きたいです。

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

I love the experience and the food is very good, the show was amazing

The venue is located on the 4th floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center, conveniently situated in the heart of Honolulu. Upon checking in, I was greeted with a lei service. First, there was a meal time, which included a Mai Tai cocktail and one drink of your choice. The meal was served buffet-style in order after being guided to our seats. During the meal, there was hula dancing, but I could only see the dancers from behind. I wanted to have dessert, but before I knew it, a ukulele performance started nearby (though it wasn't very good), and there was a request for a $10 tip. It was unfortunate that the meal time ended so hurriedly.

However, after moving to the second half of the showtime venue, the VIP treatment made me feel fantastic! I had a central seat right in front of the stage. The beautiful dancers performed hula, and the host and singer resembled Rumiko Koyanagi. The performances of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson were so convincing that it felt like I was watching the real stars. I had a great time right in front of the stage. After leaving the venue, I even took photos with Michael and Elvis, creating wonderful memories.

The collaboration of rock and hula dancing was the best! This is a show I highly recommend if you come to Hawaii!

会場はロイヤルハワイアンセンターの4階にあり、ホノルル街の中央で便利な場所。受付をすると早速、レイのサービス。最初に食事の時間があり、マイタイカクテル＆好きなドリンク1杯がついていました。食事は案内されてから順番にバイキング形式。食事中はフラダンスをしていたが席からは後ろ姿しか見えなかった。デザートも食べたかったが、いつのまにか脇でウクレレ演奏が始まり(余り上手ではなかったのに）チップ10💲の催促。最後は食時間があわただしく終わってしまったのが残念。
が、食事タイム移動後、後半のショータイム会場のVIP 対応に気分は最高！ステージ目の前中央の席。美しいダンサー達のフラダンスや小柳ルミ子似の司会＆歌手。エルビスプレスリーやマイケルジャクソンもまるで本人達のショーかと思うほど演技と迫力。また目の前でとても楽しませてもらいました。会場を出てからマイケルやエルビスと写真も撮ったりと思い出になりました。
ロックとフラダンスのコラボレーション。最高でした！ハワイに来たらお勧めのショーです♪

Pearl Harbor and USS Missouri were a bucket list trip.
Great historical information

They took us quite far out, and we were able to see whales. It was a wonderful experience. I've also been on a sunset cruise, but the morning cruise was better.

かなり沖まで行ってくれて、クジラを見ることが出来ました
素晴らしい体験でした
サンセットで乗船したこともありますが、午前のクルーズの方が、良かったです

It was a slightly chilly time (February) at the sandbar where I was waist-deep in water, but during about 30 minutes of snorkeling, I encountered 8 to 9 sea turtles. They were right in front of me! It was amazing.

腰まで浸かるサンドバーで少し肌寒い時期(2月)でしたが、30分くらいのシュノーケリングで海カメ8〜9匹に遭遇。ホント目の前に！最高でした。

We participated with our small child, and we had a wonderful experience on the boat without any significant rocking. The interior of the boat was clean and spacious, providing a calm atmosphere along with light snacks and drinks.

At the beginning, we had a presentation about whales on the first floor while enjoying some snacks, and afterward, we were free to move around the floors up to the fourth level to look for whales and enjoy the view from the boat.

Although we weren't able to see any whales this time, we received a ticket to board again during this season. All the crew members were very kind, making for a delightful boat trip.

小さな子供も一緒に参加させていただきましたが船も大きく揺れることもなく楽しい船の体験をさせていただきました
船内は清潔で広く落ち着いた中で軽食と飲み物の提供があります
初めに一階部分で鯨の説明や軽食をとりその後自由に四階までのフロアーを移動してクジラの確認や船からの景色を楽しみました
今回は鯨を見ることができませんでしたが今シーズン中の再度乗船券をいただきました
乗員の方みなさん親切にしていただき楽しい船旅ができました

We didn't see any whales, but we had a great time. The naturalist on board was very knowledgeable and we learned a great deal about whales.
The weather was pretty good. We had clear views of Honolulu -- Waikiki and Diamond Head.
The process to check in and check out was smooth and fast.

I had a seat quite far forward in the Golden Circle, and it was much closer to the stage than I had imagined, which was fantastic. Because I was so close to the stage, I was able to focus on the show, and there were many entertaining performances that made me laugh out loud several times. Additionally, in the relaxed atmosphere unique to Hawaii, I felt a sense of unity in the venue. It truly became a wonderful experience! Thank you very much!

ゴールデンサークルシートの結構前の方の席だったのですが、想像していたより舞台と近くて、すごく良かったです。
舞台との距離が近かった分、集中してショーを観ることができましたし、お客様を楽しませる演出などもたくさん盛り込まれていて、声をあげて笑ってしまったシーンがいくつもありました。
また、ハワイならではのリラックスした雰囲気の中で、会場の一体感を感じました。
本当に素敵な経験になりました！ありがとうございました！

The weather that day was a surprising storm even for the locals, with the narrow streets of Waikiki flowing like rivers and fallen branches scattered about. At the Royal Hawaiian Center, escalators were stopping everywhere, and people were lining up for the elevators. There was even leaking rain inside the elevator, and we were worried about whether the buffet and show would take place, but as the time approached, the rain and wind calmed down, and the event was held. We were greeted with fresh flower leis and guided to a table waiting with pineapples, where we were asked if we wanted alcohol in our first drink, the Mai Tai. Since we would receive another drink later, we took a look at the menu. My husband and I chose the slightly sweet "Chichi" (white) with coconut and the "Polynesian Punch" (red) with multiple fruits like pineapple and orange, both with alcohol. Every dish was delicious, and the whole roasted pig was carved into cubes right in front of us; the skin was tasty, and we had some extra. The roast beef was very delicious with a rare texture. The show progressed with local singer Presley (impersonation), Michael (impersonation), and a Polynesian show, and even though we didn't understand the English, we had a great time. We weren't sure when to move to the show venue since we didn't understand English, so we looked around and moved. Although we moved around separately, the seating areas were determined by the plan, and within those areas, it was open seating, so if you want a better seat, I recommend moving early. After the show, we took photos with Michael and the performers and happily headed home.

この日の天候が、ロコも驚くような大嵐で、ワイキキの細い道は川のように水が流れ、折れた枝が道に落ちているような中、ロイヤル・ハワイアンセンターではエスカレーターがあちこちでストップし、エレベーターに人が並んでました。そのエレベーター内も雨漏りしておりビュッフェ＆ショーが開催されるか心配でしたが、時間が近づくと雨風が弱まり開催されました。生花のレイを首にかけていただき、パイナップルが待つテーブルに案内され、最初のドリンク「マイタイ」のアルコールありか無しかを聞かれます。後でもう１杯ドリンクがもらえるのでメニューをいただき、私たち夫婦は、ココナッツが少し甘い「チチ」（白）とパイナップルやオレンジなど、複数のフルーツが入った「ポリネシアンパンチ」（赤）を、アルコール入りでいただきました。食事はどれも美味しく、子豚の丸焼きは目の前でサイコロ状にさばき、皮が美味しく、追加でいただきました。ローストビーフは生な感じがとても美味しかったです。ショーはロコシンガー・プレスリー（ものまね）・マイケル（ものまね）・ポリネシアンショーとテンポよく進み、私たち夫婦は、英語は理解できませんが楽しかったです。ショーの会場に移るタイミングは、英語のわからない私たちにはわからないので、周りを見て移動しました。バラバラと移動しますが、プランによって会場内のエリアが決まっており、その中では自由席なので、より良い席に座りたい場合は、早めの移動をお勧めします。終了後、マイケルとショーの出演者たちと写真を撮っていただき楽しく帰りました。

This venue Is jam packed with things to do and see! Each village area representing an island of Polynesian was so informative and filled with fun activities. The students that perform are absolutely wonderful.
We were so impressed by the grand buffet, so much incredibly wonderful food.
The HA Breath of life performance was amazing! The driver of our bus that we went on told us that this show was one of the most authentic depictions of Polynesian culture on the whole island! I concur 100%

I participated in whale watching for the first time!
While cruising, I was able to enjoy some drinks and the scenery was amazing! ✨✨
I saw the whales spouting water and their tails from a bit of a distance!!
I thought I would be able to see them a little closer, but since they are wild animals, I understand that it's unpredictable. Still, the atmosphere was great and I had a lot of fun!!

The restrooms on the boat aren't usually very clean and can be hard to access, but this boat had clean restrooms, so I felt comfortable even while drinking!
I would love to participate again someday!!

初めてホエールウォッチングに参加しました！
クルージングしながらお酒も飲めて景色も最高でした✨✨
クジラは少し遠くで潮を吹くところやテールを見ることができました！！
もう少し近くで観れると思っていましたが、自然の生き物の事なので、予想がつかないのも仕方がないな〜と思いつつ、雰囲気はとても良く楽しむことができました！！

船でのおトイレは綺麗なところがあまりなく、なかなか行きにくいですが、こちらの船は綺麗なトイレでお酒を飲んでも安心でした！
またいつか参加してみたいです！！

The staff is friendly and it's just so much fun!! You can enjoy it without any problems even if you don't understand English! The buffet has desserts in addition to the meals, and I was completely full. It was the best!

スタッフさんがフレンドリーでとにかく楽しい！！英語がわからなくても問題なく楽しめます！バイキングは食事以外にデザートもあって満腹になりました。フラ最高！

The performance was outstanding , they were engaging from the moment you walked in and out. The food taste good however was cold with exception to the pork and chicken thighs were hot, but sweet potatoes, noodles and rice were cold and we had Royal package and first in line to eat so I was surprised to have those few items cold, the rolls were so delicious so grab 2

This tour is amazing.

What’s not to love? Sailing is so cool, isn’t it?

Every time I come to Hawaii, I participate in this sailing trip.

Feeling the sea breeze and the waves is just the best.

You can also see Diamond Head from a different angle.

You should definitely try it!

このツアーは最高です。
何がー。セーリングってかっこいいじゃないですか。

毎回、ハワイに来るとこのセーリングに参加します。

潮風を受け、波を受け最高ですよ。

ダイヤモンドヘッドを違った角度からも見ることができますよ。

あなたも是非。

I could tell there were whales, but I couldn't see them very well. The staff provided warm hospitality, making my experience enjoyable. The banana cake for a light snack had a homemade feel and was delicious. You can choose between tea and coffee.

鯨がいるのは分かりますが、あまりよく見えませんでした。スタッフの方々はあたたかいおもてなしで気分良く過ごすことができました。軽食のバナナケーキも手作りの感じがあって美味しかったです。紅茶がコーヒーが選べます。

We came for the show only and were pleasantly pleased with the performance! I especially enjoyed the “Is” section of showcasing his rise and what he means to the Hawaiian people as a whole. Still singing his recorded hit “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” in my head. It was all very good. Elvis and Michael Jackson impersonators, the dancers…Hawaiian culture. Just great!! Don’t miss out!!

One of our favorite events of the week. Crew was funny and professional. Beach volleyball was super fun. We saw two turtles while snorkeling! Also wonderful that they have a free shuttle for dropoff and pickup

The friendly service from the staff was impressive. The food was also wonderful and delicious. Recently, due to age, there are times when I can't finish a course meal, but both my husband and I finished everything. We will definitely go again on our trip to Hawaii!

気持ちの良いスタッフの接客が印象的です。料理も素晴らしく美味しかったです。最近年齢とともにコース料理を食べきれない事があるのですが夫婦揃って完食しました。ハワイ旅行の際は必ず行きます！

This was my second experience. I encountered wonderful seas and sea turtles, making it the best experience. I will definitely participate in the next trip to Hawaii.

今回で2回目の体験でした。
素晴らしい海と海亀にも出会い最高の体験が出来ました。
次のハワイ旅行も必ず参加します。

The previous day's bad weather may have caused rough waves, and although I was able to see a few turtles, there were not many fish. It's unfortunate, but it's nature, so there's nothing we can do about it.

前日が悪天候だったためか、波が荒くて魚も少し亀が何とか見れたけど、自然相手だから仕方がないけど、残念でした。

It was cold since we left early in the morning. The bus had the air conditioning on, so it was a good decision to bring a long-sleeved shirt. The cruise was comfortable, and we were able to see sea turtles and whales. It was a pity we didn't see any dolphins, but it was great to see the whales since they are only available in winter!

朝早く出発だったので、寒かったです。
バスも冷房が効いていたので、長袖持っていって正解でした。
クルーズは快適、ウミガメと、クジラが見れました。
イルカは残念でしたが、クジラの方が冬限定なので、見れて良かったです！

On this day, the sky was completely covered with clouds and there was a strong wind. It started to rain midway, and by the time we disembarked, there was a full-blown storm. Perhaps due to the strong winds, the waves were high and there were whitecaps, making it difficult to spot whales. However, there were several announcements on the ship about whale sightings, and my husband and I were able to see a spout once each. A few Japanese passengers who were on board with us also mentioned they saw a spout just once. Does seeing a spout mean you've seen a whale? I wonder if it was the right decision to set sail in that weather. If asked whether I would like to go again, I would say I do not want to. Even if the weather were good, it seems there is a set distance from which you can approach the whales, so I think it would be difficult to actually see the whales themselves. The coffee and light snacks were delicious (although the boat rocked so much that the coffee spilled...).

この日は空一面の雲に強い風、途中から雨が降り始め、下船するころには大嵐になっていました。強い風のためか波が高く白波が立ち、クジラ発見には難しい条件だったと思いますが、船内に何回かクジラ発見の放送が流れ、私たち夫婦は潮吹きを１度づつ見ることができました。一緒に乗っていた日本の方たち数人も潮吹きを１度だけ見たと言っていました。潮吹きを見たらクジラを見たことになるのか？あの天候で船を出すことは正解なのか？疑問です。また乗ってみたいかと言われれば、もう乗りたくありません。天候が良かったとしても、クジラに近寄れる距離が決まっているらしく、クジラ本体を見ることは難しいのではないかと思いました。コーヒーと軽食は美味しかったです（コーヒーがこぼれるほど揺れましたが・・・）

Husband was a US Navy vet and wanted to make sure he paid his respects at the Memorial. Had just enough time and we're not rushed.

I have also watched it in Japan (Maihama), but this time the stage was closer, so I was able to enjoy a different level of excitement compared to last time.

日本（舞浜）でも鑑賞したことが有りますが、今回はステージが近いので前回と違う迫力があり楽しむことが出来ました。

My husband and I participated in this trip for our honeymoon.

Thanks to the favorable weather, the boat didn't sway, and we were able to enjoy the beautiful sea and the views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the water.

As for the whales, we were able to see them multiple times during the trip. However, they were all quite far away, and we could only see their spouts and a bit of their black backs and tails. I think it was great just to see them, but if I had to say something, I wish we could have seen them a little closer.

新婚旅行で夫と2人で参加しました。

天気に恵まれたため船が揺れることもなく、綺麗な海や海からのワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めることができました。

肝心のクジラですが、乗船中何度も見ることができました。しかしいずれも遠いところで、潮吹きと黒い背中と尾鰭が少し見える程度。姿を見ることができただけでも良かったのだと思いますが、強いて言えば、もう少し近くで見れると良かったなと思います。
