Oahu
I loved the entire experience. Will go back again. Should have booked the entire day.
楽しかったです、素晴らしい体験でした。スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございます。
It was fun, was an impressive experience
Your staff, thank you
I thought it would be an amazing place, so I participated, but it was just okay. However, I had fun!
凄いとこかなーと思い参加しましたが、まあまあでした。
でも楽しかったです!
I happened to sign up for the tour during the season when whales can be seen. Also, I thought that even if I couldn't see any whales, just being able to see Waikiki from the sea would be good enough, so I signed up with a light heart.
As a result, it was really great.
1. I was able to see the blue whales multiple times.
2. The food was much more delicious than what I had during the magic show, and even when the whales appeared, I was watching from the dining area while eating.
3. My wife usually gets seasick within an hour, but she didn't feel the engine's vibrations and was surprised by how little the boat rocked.
4. While Diamond Head is a great way to get a view of Waikiki, from the sea, we could see all the way to downtown.
5. I experienced my first ukulele class with Americans, Spaniards, and Hawaiians, which was an unexpected experience. It was also fun to see a white girl enjoying hula dance with sparkling eyes.
たまたま鯨が見れるシーズンだったのでツワーに申込ました。また、鯨が見れなくても海上からワイキキが見れれば、それだけでも良いと軽い気持ちで申込ました。
結果として、すごく良かったです。
1.シロナガス鯨を何度も見ることが出来ました。
2.マジックショー等で食べた食事より数段美味しい料理 で、鯨が現れても食事をしながら食堂から見てました。
3.1時間もすれば船酔いする妻ですが、エンジンの振動も 感じられず、揺れの少なさにもびっくりです。
4.ワイキキを一望する方法としてダイヤモンドヘッドもい いですが、海上からだとダウンタウンまで一望できまし た。
5.アメリカ人、スペイン人、ハワイアンの人達と初めての ウクレレ教室を体験し、予定外の体験をすることができま した。白人の女の子が目を輝かせながらフラダンスに興じ ているのを見るのも楽しかったです。
Thank you very much for your many comments. We are very pleased to hear that you had a wonderful time. The humpback whale visits the waters around Hawaii, but it's amazing that the blue whale also appeared. You must have had great weather and an enjoyable cruising experience. Thank you for boarding with us this time.

たくさんのコメント有難うございました。楽しいひと時を過ごしていただいたようで
私どもも大変嬉しく思います。ハワイ近海におとずれるのはザトウクジラですが、
シロナガスクジラも現れたとはすごいですね。きっとお天気にも恵まれて楽しいクルージングになったのでしょう。
この度はご乗船有難うございました。

I traveled with my 82-year-old mother, and she was able to walk without any issues, which made us very happy. It was a tour that everyone in the family enjoyed. It was a very beautiful place, and it became a lifelong memory for both my mother and me. Thank you very much.
82歳母との同行でしたが、全く問題なく歩けてとても喜んでおりました。参加した家族全員が喜んで遊べたツアーでした。とても綺麗な場所で母にも私にも一生の思い出になりました。有難うございました。
My Boyfriend and I had an incredible time on the Navatek. The employee who greeted us at the hotel was our server on the boat. She was the nicest most attentive women ever. The sunset was beautiful. This trip was a sheer pleasure.
I had to go to the sandbar on my first trip to Hawaii! Although I was alone, the staff were young and friendly, and the ocean was incredibly beautiful. Of course, I also got to see sea turtles. It seemed difficult to take pictures, though. I’m good at snorkeling, so I easily cleared it and swam at the front of the tour, enjoying the fish in the clear waters.
初めてのハワイでサンドバー行くっきゃない!だけどぉ、独りは一人だったけどぉ。スタッフは若くて気さくな感じだし、海はとってもきれいなのだぁ。もちろんウミガメも見れたよぉ。写真に撮るのは難しそうだったけれどぉ。初種のーケリングも潜るの得意だから難なくクリアーでツアーの先頭を泳げば澄み切った海で魚たちを楽しめます。
It wasn't my first time, so there wasn't anything particularly new, but it was a bit cold in March. However, the pool in Waikiki is similarly (or even more) chilly, so it's not an issue with the facilities.
When I visited before, not all the slides were operating at the same time, and there were periods when some were closed. This time, I felt there were a bit more closures. According to the staff, it was due to water usage restrictions. I'm not sure if this will be resolved in the summer, but even on a Sunday, it wasn't inconvenient enough to be a problem; it would just be better if everything was available.
It seems that people who booked through other travel agencies were on the same pickup bus. I recommend booking through Alan 1.
はじめてではなかったので、特段目新しいことはなかったのですが、3月でちょっと寒かったです。もっともワイキキのプールでも同様(あるいはそれ以上)ですので、施設の問題ではありません。
以前に行った時も全てのスライダーが同時に稼働しているわけではなく一部が休止状態になる時間があったのですが、今回はそれがちょっと多いと感じました。係員によると水の利用制限が理由とのことでした。夏になると解消するのか否かわかりませんが、日曜の参加でも不便を感じるほどではありませんが、全部使えるとなお良いです。
他の旅行社で申し込んだと思われる人たちも同じピックアップバスです。Alan1での申し込みはお薦めします。
Thank you for enjoying Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii. As you pointed out, similar sliders operate at slightly different times, but there may be instances where the operating rate is lower depending on the season. We will take your valuable feedback into consideration and strive to improve our services to provide a higher level of satisfaction. We look forward to your next visit.
ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイをお楽しみいただき有難うございます。ご指摘いただきました通り、同じようなスライダーは多少時間をずらして稼働しておりますが、シーズンにより稼働率が低くなっている場合もございます。お客様からの貴重なご意見を参考に、より満足度の高いサービスが提供できるように改善に努めさせていただきます。
またのご利用お待ちしております。
Waited 40+ years to go, way too long, something that every American should see. But needed more time, than 1 day. If opportunity came, would go back and spend more time.
The main benefit in this tour was to have someone else stand in line and get the tickets and drive around. The Arizona memorial and Missouri tours are handled basically self tours. My favorite portion was the oral history as told by our guide, Cousin Jerry. This was too short. I wish I had heard more from him.
It was my first experience with snorkeling!
Even though I wore a life jacket, it was quite challenging for me, who can't swim, to get used to using the fins ^^;
However, they assessed how well each participant could swim at the beginning and provided support, so I was able to swim with peace of mind ;)
The water wasn't as clear as in photos or stories, so I couldn't see the dolphins clearly underwater or swim with them, but I could hear their voices! ((@0@) From the boat, I was able to see several mother-dolphin pairs and groups☆
The captain and crew were incredibly kind, and the hamburgers were delicious ♥ When I was on the kayak, I got to see a sea turtle up close, which was truly moving (:_; )
And above all...
The ocean was so beautiful!!!!
I forgot everything and felt so relaxed ´ω`
The final hula experience was also a lot of fun *^'*b
I think anyone, whether friends, couples, or families, will definitely enjoy it!!
I highly recommend it for those who want to experience Hawaii in just one day\^0^/
シュノーケリング初体験でした!
ライフジャケットを着用していたものの、
泳げない私はフィンの使い方に
慣れるまでなかなか大変でした^^;
でも最初にどのくらい泳げるか
参加者の状態を把握して
フォローしてくれたので
安心して泳げました;)
海はそれほど透き通ってなかったので、
写真や体験談のように
水中でイルカをハッキリ見たり、
一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでしたが、
声が聞こえましたよっ((@0@
船上からは何頭もの親子や群れを
見ることができました☆
キャプテンやクルーの皆さんは
とーっても優しいし、
ハンバーガーはおいしいし♥
カヤックに乗った時には
ウミガメを間近で見られて
本当に感動しました(:__;)
そして何より…
海がキレ~~~イ!!!!
何もかも忘れて
癒してもらいました´ω`
最後のフラ体験も
とっても楽しかったです*^'*b
友達、カップル、家族、
誰と参加しても必ず
楽しめると思います!!
一日でHawaiiを体験したい方には
本当にオススメです\^0^/
I participated for the first time in late March, as I visit the Hawaiian Islands every year between December and April for child-rearing. We had the option to choose between two sizes of cruising boats, and after some hesitation, I decided to go with the smaller boat that seemed more maneuverable.
"Bingo!" On that day, we were able to see a mother humpback whale and her calf up close, which was truly moving. It seemed we were very lucky.
The breakfast included was disappointing, but since the whales were the main attraction, I guess it was acceptable?
毎年12月~4月の間に 子育てのためハワイ諸島近海を訪れるという事で初めて(3月下旬)参加しました。クルージング船が大小2種類のうちの選択でしたが、迷ったあげく、小回りの利きそうな双同船を選ぶことにしました。
「ビンゴ!」私たちは当日、ザトウクジラの親子を目の当たりに見ることができ、感動致しました。とてもラッキーだったようです。
朝食付きの「朝食」は期待外れでしたが、でもクジラがメインでしたのでよしとするかな?
The day after arriving in Hawaii, three women in their 50s escaped Waikiki and, without knowing what to expect, the first challenge we took on was the Tornado at the world's largest and best water park. It was incredibly thrilling, and we lost ourselves in excitement, screaming together. We eagerly tried one attraction after another. Although we participated without much thought, we ended up having an absolutely wonderful day. When I shared this with others, they expressed a strong desire to try it at least once.
ハワイ到着の次の日50過ぎの熟女3名でワイキキを抜けだし、世界最大最高のウォータパークで訳も分からず、一番最初にチャレンジしたのが、トルネード。最高にスリル満点で、我を忘れて皆でキャーキャーと絶叫し、次から次へと他のアトラクションにチャレンジ。考えもせずに参加しましたが、最高に楽しい一日を過ごすことができました。
他の人に話をしたところ、ぜひ一度参加してみたいと、言っていただけました。
This was my second time in Hawaii, and while I went into the ocean last time, I thought just soaking in the water was boring. Since I was in Hawaii, I decided to fully enjoy some water activities and participated in this one. I'm not good with thrilling rides, but I found it wasn't too scary while holding onto the tube, or big float. I think I will participate in this activity again the next time I come to Hawaii, as I felt it was just right for "getting used to the water."
今回で2回目のハワイでしたが、前回は海に入ったけど
ただ海に浸かっているだけじゃつまらないと思っていたので
せっかくのハワイだし思いっきり水遊びしようと今回の
アクティビティーに参加させていただきました
私は絶叫系はニガテなんですが、チューブ?大きな浮き輪?
につかまって柔らかかったのかそんなに怖いと感じませんでした。
次回またハワイに来たらこのアクティビティーは前半で参加しようと思っています
何ていうか「水に慣れる」のには丁度良いアクティビティーだと感じました
On the day of our visit, we drove there with a rental car. It’s easy to spot right after you exit the freeway.
There were three of us in the family, including a 4-year-old boy (105 cm tall). However, the height restrictions were quite strict, and although he was close to being able to ride, he wasn’t allowed (which is understandable for safety reasons). He seemed to find the slides in the kids' pool a bit lacking.
It was early March, and while there was quite a bit of sunshine, the water temperature was low, making it chilly even for adults.
I think kids in upper elementary school would really enjoy it. You can experience slides on a scale that you can't find in Japan.
The wave pool was also quite impressive and exciting. Young children can participate if they are with an adult, but since each inflatable ring can only hold one person, it can be dangerous if they can’t hold on (even for toddlers).
Personally, I found the restrooms and changing rooms to be old and dirty, which was a downside. It felt like more locals were visiting than tourists.
I recommend it for groups looking to have fun or families with older children.
当日はレンタカーで向かいました。フリーウェイを降りるとすぐ見えてきます。
家族3人、子供は4歳男の子(身長105センチ)でしたが、身長制限がけっこうシビアであと少しで乗れそうなのですが、やらせてもらえず、(安全上仕方ないですけど)子供専用プールのスライダー類ではあまりもの足り無かったようです。
3月の上旬で、日差しはけっこうありましたが、水温が低くて、大人でも冷たかったです。
小学校高学年くらいになれば、かなり楽しめると思います。
日本には無いスケールのスライダーを、楽しめます。
波のプールもけっこう迫力あって、もりあがります。幼児でも大人と一緒なら参加できますが、浮輪ひとつに一人ずつなので、(幼児でも1人)つかまっていられないと危ないです。
個人的には、トイレや更衣室が古くて汚かったのがマイナス要素でした。
観光客より、ロコが来ているという印象です。
グループでワイワイ、もしくは家族でもある程度の年齢の子供がいるファミリーにおススメです。
This was my first time participating.
The slides had a thrilling design that you can't find in Japan, and I was able to enjoy sliding on all of them. Even though it was a holiday, the wait times were only about 5 to 15 minutes, so I was able to slide a lot. However, since you have to climb the stairs to slide each time, it can be quite tiring on your legs. The Tornado and Shaka slides were particularly good.
I also took a bodyboard lesson, and we had the entire large wave pool to ourselves with just five people for 30 minutes. During the lesson, no other guests were allowed in, so it was just the five of us who participated that day. Even for those who had never tried bodyboarding before, the staff provided support, making it easy and fun to ride the waves.
今回、初めて参加させて頂きました。
スライダーは日本にはない絶叫設計?でどれも楽しくすべることができました。休日でしたが、待ち時間も5分~15分程度で、たくさんすべることができました。ただ、どれも自分で階段を上ってすべるので、足に結構きます。
特にトルネードとシャカがGOODでした。
ボディーボードレッスンも受けましたが、あの広い波プールをたった5人で30分も貸切状態。レッスンタイム中は一般のお客さんは入れないので、この日参加した5名だけでした。
ボディボード未経験者もスタッフさんがサポートしてくれるので、どんどん乗れて楽しいです。
We just went for the late arrival and only got to visit a couple of the islands before dinner and the "HA" show. We would have enjoyed the whole day.
I previously experienced dolphin watching in Guam, but this time it was whale watching. I was told that the chances of seeing them were fifty-fifty, but I was able to see them multiple times. The boat didn't rock much, and I didn't get seasick. It was comfortable!!
いるかウォッチングは以前、グアムで経験しましたが、今回はクジラ。会えるかどうかは五分五分といわれましたが、何回も見ることができました。
船もあまり揺れず、船酔いもなし。快適でした!!
This is the Star of Honolulu.
We are very pleased to hear that you were able to see whales, which are wild animals, multiple times. You were lucky!
We also appreciate your comments about having a comfortable experience during the cruise.
Thank you for boarding with us this time!

I participated in the most popular tour, the afternoon BBQ lunch tour, which is known for its delicious food. The weather was great, and the sea was beautiful! I realized I had forgotten my video camera on the shuttle bus. What a shock! I had bought a compact video camera to capture this sea... In the early morning, I joined the Diamond Head sunrise tour. I guess I was a bit relaxed, and while searching for a shop near the boat departure point, I found none.
When I asked the staff, they mentioned that waterproof cameras called "Utsurun desu" are sold on the boat... When I tried to buy one, I learned about a service that turns photos taken at the sand bar into a DVD. The sand bar is a famous spot for commercial filming. Hmm. The "Utsurun desu" camera costs $20, while the DVD shooting is $45... I thought about having a photo DVD made of me, my son, and my mother.
However, we had to pose properly... arms wide open, all three of us overlapping, and so on. Plus, I was bare-faced with messy hair... I thought the woman in a bikini taking our photos looked much more suited to the beautiful sea... but we went ahead with it. My son had a stiff expression the whole time. My mother looked great in the photos, and the photo spots were indeed well-chosen.
The finished photos turned out beautifully. However, having to pick them up at the office near DFS after 7 PM that day was a bit inconvenient. I wished there was a delivery service to the hotel.
After that, we went snorkeling. My son, who had been taking swimming lessons, of course participated. I also joined since I had gotten somewhat used to it at Hanauma Bay on the first day. However, the water was 20 meters deep. The distance was about 100 meters round trip, I think. It suddenly got deep from knee-deep water. Some women decided not to participate, fearing they might panic at that depth, but I can only swim about 25 meters. There were small children participating with their fathers, so it was okay. However, the visibility wasn't that great, and I could only see a few fish far below.
We saw several sea turtles from the boat on the way to the sand bar.
The BBQ lunch after snorkeling was delicious, just as I had expected. The kalbi meat was easy to eat, and we all commented on how tasty the salad was.
ツアーで一番人気の、このツアーBBQランチが美味しいという評判の午後ツアーに参加してきました。
天気も良く、海も綺麗!送迎のバスの中でビデオカメラを忘れてきたことに気がつきました。ショック。この海を撮りたくて小型ビデオカメラを購入したのに・・・早朝、ダイアモンドヘッド日の出ツアーに参加。きっと、気が緩んでいたんでしょうねと思いつつ、ボートの発着所付近にショップはないか、捜しましたがありません。
スタッフの方に聞くと、「写るんです」の防水カメラはボート内で販売しているとか・・・購入しようとすると、このサンド・バーで写真をDVDにしてくれるというサービスがあることを知りました。サンド・バーはCM撮影で有名なスポット。う~ん。「写るんです」は20ドル。DVD撮影は45ドル・・・いっそ、私と息子、母の3人を撮ってもらおうかと写真DVDをお願いしました。
しかし、ポーズをしっかりつけること・・・両手を広げて、三人重なって・・などなど。しかも、私はノーメイクで、髪はボサボサ・・・写真を撮ってくださるビキニの女性の方がよほど、この海の景色に似合いそうだ・・・などと思いつつ撮ってもらいました。息子は終始、かたい表情。母は、良い表情に撮れていましたし、写真を撮るスポットはさすがに、慣れているだけあって良かったです。
出来上がったものは、綺麗に撮れていました。
その日の19時以降にDFSの近くの事務所まで受け取りに行くのが、ちょっと。ホテルまで届けてくれるサービスなどあればと思いました。
その後はシュノーケリング。息子はスイミングを習っていたので、もちろん参加。私も初日のハナウマ湾で、やや慣れたので参加。けれど、水深20メートル。距離は往復で100メートル~だと思います。膝ほどの水深からいきなり、深くなります。
水深が20メートルだと、途中でパニックになるかもしれないなどど参加をやめた女性もいましたが、私も25メートルほどしか泳げません。小さな子供もお父さんと参加していたので、大丈夫です。ただし、透明度はそれほどではなく、魚もずっと下の方に少し見えるくらいでした。
海ガメは、サンド・バーに行く途上で何匹も船上から見えました。
シュノーケリングの後のBBQランチは期待通り、美味しかったです。カルビ肉は食べやすく、サラダも味付けが美味しいねと皆で話していま
On March 21, 2011, I participated in this tour with my parents and my son (8 years old). It was cloudy in Waikiki, and there was a bit of rain on the mountain roads, so I was worried about the weather. However, when we arrived at the location, it wasn't perfectly sunny, but the weather was decent with some sunshine. Even in late March, the water temperature was still low. During this tour, we snorkeled twice at different points, but during the first snorkeling session, my son and the other children turned blue in the lips and were shivering. The adults, including myself, didn't feel as cold, but if children are going snorkeling at this time of year, a rash guard might not be warm enough. The snorkeling left a stronger impression than walking on the sandbar. Most of the staff were Japanese, so they kindly explained how to wear and use the snorkeling gear in Japanese, which made me feel at ease. During the first snorkeling session, we encountered a sea turtle. The colorful tropical fish and the sea turtle were truly moving. We boarded the cruiser, which took us to the snorkeling points, and even though the meals on board were light snacks, they were quite delicious. For the second snorkeling session, I was told that the current was a bit stronger than at the first point, but even as a beginner, I was able to snorkel without being swept away. This point had clearer water and a more beautiful sea. We didn't see any sea turtles here, but afterward, we returned to the boat for turtle watching. We discovered many sea turtles, and my parents, who didn't snorkel, also enjoyed it. All the staff were kind, and I would definitely recommend this tour.
2011年3月21日にこのツアーに私の両親と私と息子(8歳)で参加しました。ワイキキでは曇りで途中山道でも雨がちらつき、天候が心配でしたが、現地に到着するとピーカンではありませんでしたが、日差しもぼちぼちの天候となりました。3月下旬でもやはり水温は低く、このツアーではポイントを変えて2回シュノーケルしたのですが、1度目のシュノーケルで、息子も含め他の子供達も唇が真っ青でぶるぶる震えるような感じになりました。私や他の大人の方々は、それほど寒さを感じませんでしたが、この時期のシュノーケルは、お子さんが行かれるのであれば、ラッシュガードでは寒いかもしれません。サンドバーのウォーキングよりは、シュノーケルが印象に残りました。スタッフは日本の方がほとんどでしたので、日本語で丁寧にシュノーケルの装着や使い方について説明してくださり、安心してシュノーケルができました。1度目のシュノーケル時にウミガメに遭遇しました。色とりどりの熱帯魚とウミガメ、それはもう感動的でした。クルーザーに乗り込み、ポイントまで連れていっていただいたのですが、船内での食事も軽食とはいえ、なかなかおいしかったです。2度目のシュノーケルは、最初のポイントよりやや潮の流れがあるとのことでしたが、初心者の私でも流されることなく安心してシュノーケルできました。こちらのポイントの方が透明度が高く美しい海でした。ここではウミガメには会えませんでしたが、その後船に戻りウミガメウォッチングをしました。
たくさんのウミガメを発見して、こちらはシュノーケルはしなかった私の両親も楽しんでいました。
スタッフのみなさんもどなたも親切ですし、是非お勧めしたいツアーです。
Travelled on a budget with my son to Oahu. Captain Bob's provided a great water adventure, including turtles, snorkeling and lunch. The excursion got us to the windward side of the island, allowing us to see more of Oahu. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
This was a great experience we got to see the USS Missouri, The Pacific Aviation Museum, The USS Arizona Memorial, and the USS Bowfin. Our driver Francis was very nice and took very good care of us. This would be a long day for children under the age of about ten, other than that it would be a great experience for anyone who is interested in Pearl Harbor as well as other interesting aspects of the US military.
I participated in the summer of 10 years ago. It was really early in the morning, but I was moved by the sunrise at the sandbar and enjoyed the sandbar walk. On top of that, I went snorkeling in a place with sea turtles and tropical fish. It was a tour filled with the best of Hawaii. Above all, the hospitality of the staff was outstanding.
10年の夏に参加しました。朝メチャ早かったのですが、サンドバーでのサンライズに感動し、サンドバーウォークを楽しみました。おまけにウミガメや熱帯魚がいるところでシュノーケル。ハワイのいいところが詰まったツアーです。なによりスタッフのおもてなしが最高でした。
This was my second time participating. The last time I went, it was called Hawaiian Waters Adventure Park. I thought maybe only the name had changed, but the facilities had also changed slightly.
This time, I attended with my 12-year-old son, and we had a great time. Previously, he was scared of the thrill rides, but at this age, he was able to enjoy all the attractions. There are also facilities for younger children, so even little kids can have plenty of fun.
I participated in a monitor tour, and I think the price with transportation included is unbelievably low! I don't think you would find this with other tour companies.
It was a bit chilly, and it was unfortunate that the Da Flowrider, which my child was most looking forward to, was closed. However, for this price, both of us were able to play a lot, and we were extremely satisfied.
Next time I go to Hawaii, I will definitely book not only Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii but also other optional tours through Alan1.net. I highly recommend it!
今回は二回目の参加です。以前行った時は、ハワイアン・ウォーターズ・アドベンチャーパークという名前でした。名前だけが変わったのかなと思ってましたが、施設も若干変わっていました。
今回は上の12才の息子と二人での参加でしたが、かなり楽しめました。以前は絶叫系を怖がっていたので、やはりこのぐらいの年齢になるとすべてのアトラクションが楽しめるなと思いました。小さい子用の施設もあるので、もちろん小さい子供でも十分に楽しめます。
モニターツアーでの参加でしたが、送迎つきでこの値段はありえない安さだと思います!他のツアー会社ではまずないと思います。
肌寒むかった事と、子供が一番楽しみにしていたダ・フローライダーというサーフィンのシュミレーション施設がお休みだったのが残念でしたが、この値段で親子二人がたっぷり遊べ、大大満足です。
次回ハワイへ行くときも、ウエットアンドワイルドハワイはもちろんですが、他のオプショナルツアーも絶対にAlan1.netで申し込もうと思います。
お勧めです!!
After taking the bus to switch to the boat, we headed to the point where we could see sea turtles. After seeing the sea turtles, we were on the boat for about another 5 minutes to the sandbar. Unfortunately, due to the tide, we ended up walking in knee-deep water. It was said that if the tide was just right, we could walk on the sandbank. Well, I didn't mind being in knee-deep water, but many people were disappointed.
After that, we changed locations for snorkeling. This was amazing! You can encounter all sorts of fish! Since the snorkeling was in a coral reef at a depth where you can't touch the bottom, it might be a bit challenging for beginners...
After that, we had a hearty lunch. This was also excellent.
Overall, it was a packed tour.
Don't forget to bring tissue paper to the restroom at the dock where the boat returns.
迎えのバスから船に乗り換えてウミガメの見えるポイントへ
ウミガメを見たらまた5分ぐらい船に揺られてサンドバーへ。
あいにく潮の加減でひざまで水につかってのウオーキングでした。
潮の具合でうまくいけば砂洲を歩けるとのこと。
まあ、ひざまで水につかってても私は気にならなかったけど、残念に思っていた人たちは多かった。
その後、また少し場所を替えてシュノーケリング。
これがすばらしい!
とにかくいろんな魚に逢える!
足のつかない深さのさんご礁のシュノーケリングなので、シュノーケリング初心者はちょっとハードかも・・・
それが終わるとボリュームたっぷりのランチ。
これも申し分なかったです。
とにかく盛りだくさんのツアーでした。
船が戻った桟橋のトイレにはティッシュをお忘れなく。
The long-awaited whale appeared right away (laughs), and after enjoying a leisurely view, I had a nice nap on the boat☆
念願のクジラはすぐ現れて(笑)ゆっくり眺めた後は、船上でゆっくりお昼寝をたのしませていただきました☆
It's the Star of Honolulu.
It seems you enjoyed a relaxing vacation in Hawaii (laughs).
I'm glad that the whales appeared right away.
We look forward to welcoming you aboard again.

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!
All of our staff sincerely look forward to your next visit.

My wife and I went on this snorkeling cruise in late February, and it was the funnest part of our vacation on Oahu. Allthough there are many choices for snorkeling you could take while in Hawaii, and on Oahu, I really think this was good for the price. The crew, the lunch, and especially the place where we snorkled - Kaneohe Bay. Fantastic! The sandbar was fun, I think they should spend more time there, or incorporate another tour that would be just for those wanting to lounge around on the sandbar and have some drinks and food. We are glad that we went on this activity, and would do it again!
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!
最初は遠くでしか見ることが出来ませんでしたが、最終的にはクジラから近づいて来てくれて、船のいたるところで歓声が上がっていました。
金額的にも手頃ですし、本当におすすめです!

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.
家族、友人と10名参加しました。
クジラはもちろん見れました!!
スタッフの方がクジラが出てきたら、すぐに教えてくださいます。
日本語が話せるスタッフもいらっしゃったので、日本語で面白くわかりやすく説明してくれました。
また、クジラ以外でも、フラダンスのレッスンに家族で参加し、とても盛り上がりました。
ウクレレレッスンにも友人と参加しました。
あと、生演奏もしてくれ、飽きさせないところが良いです。
食事も思ったより美味しかったです。
