Oahu
The scenery at Sandbar was exceptionally beautiful. The barbecue featured authentic hamburgers made with charcoal-grilled patties, which were delicious. During snorkeling, I was fortunate to see a sea turtle up close, which is a rare encounter.
サンドバーの風景、綺麗さは格別でした。
バーベキューは炭火焼きで本格的なハンバーグを使用したハンバーガーだったので、美味しかったです。
シュノーケリングでは、出会うことが稀なウミガメを間近に見ることができて幸運です。
I have been to Hawaii several times, but I could only take long vacations in May and August, and it wasn't whale watching season, so I couldn't even join a tour. This time, I will be going to Hawaii in January for my honeymoon, and I first booked a whale watching tour!
I was worried because I read that there are days when you can't see them, but luckily, I was able to see a little bit!!! Since it was a mother and calf, I could see the big back and the small back alternately.
If we had seen the tail fin, I might have felt more like we actually saw a whale, but it can't be helped. I can't help but feel greedy, but it's quite rare to see wild whales, so it was a very good experience! I was also glad to see the rare view of Diamond Head and the Waikiki coastline from the sea!
The boat swayed enough to make you feel unsteady, so even if you don't usually get seasick, I think it's better to take motion sickness medication.
何度かハワイに来たことがあるのですが、5月、8月しか長期休暇が取れず、ホエールウォッチングシーズンではなかったのでツアーに参加することすら出来ませんでした。。
今回ハネムーンで1月にハワイに行くことになり、最初にホエールウォッチングツアーを予約しました!
見れない日もあると口コミにあり心配でしたが、、運良くちょっとだけ見ることが出来ました!!!
親子だったので、大きい背中と小さい背中が交互に見れました。
尾ビレが見えればクジラを見れた感をもっと感じられたのかもしれませんが、、しょうがないですね。
どうしても欲が出てしまいますが、そもそも野生の?クジラを見れることはなかなかないのでとても良い経験になりました!
海から見るダイヤモンドヘッドや、ワイキキの海岸もレアな景色も見ることが出来て良かったです!
船はヨタヨタ歩きになるぐらい揺れるので、乗り物酔いをしない方も酔い止めは飲んで行った方が良いと思います。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching and the views from the ship. We hope to see you again soon. All of our staff are looking forward to your visit.
この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。クジラの観測や船からの景色をお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
My wife and I took this tour while staying at Waikiki in January. It was an ideal day for whale spotting conditions. The naturalist was very knowledgeable, and the boat had plenty of room for all the passengers to see the surroundings. We watched one whale surface nearer to the shore, then went out deeper by Diamondhead. Just as we were approaching a possible sighting, we saw a humpback breach and jump out of the water. It was spectacular! Highly recommend this tour! Guaranteed sightings!
I participated in whale watching with the mindset that it would be nice to see a whale since it's nature. Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any whales, but it was very enjoyable as a cruising experience. The pickup was very clear, and the staff was super cute. The performances on the boat were all in English, so I didn't understand anything, but it was strangely uplifting. The weather was cloudy, so it was a bit chilly in short sleeves.
ホエールウオッチングだけど、自然相手ですから、クジラは見れたら良いなぁ、くらいの気持ちで参加しました。
結果、残念ながらクジラには遭遇しませんでしたが、クルージングとして、とても楽しかったです(^_^)v
ピックアップの時も、とってもわかりやすく、とってもキュートなお姉さんでした。
船内のパフォーマンスは全て英語のため、全然意味が解らないのに、テンションが上がってしまうのは不思議ですねwww
天候が曇りだったため、半袖ではちょっと肌寒かったです。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are sorry that you were unable to enjoy whale watching, but we are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the morning cruise. We hope you will visit us again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。

This time, my family and I participated in the dinner show "Rock-a-Hula" for the first time. After having dinner, we watched the show. First, regarding the dinner, there were a decent number of dishes, so I think you'll feel full. However, the meat was a bit tough and didn't taste very good. As for the show, the seats we had were excellent, so we had a great view. There was hula dancing, and impersonators of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, which made it quite lively and enjoyable. It seems that there are options to just attend the show, so I think it would be nice to have a meal in Waikiki and then enjoy the performance.
今回、初めてディナーショーの「ロック・ア・フラ」に家族で参加しました。
ディナーを頂いてから、ショーの観戦という流れでした。まず、ディナーですが品数もそこそこありお腹いっぱいにはなると思います。ただし、お肉は固めであまり美味しいと感じませんでした。ショーの方は、観戦した席が大変良かったので、よく見えました。フラダンスあり、エルビスプレスリー・マイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんのショーがあったり結構盛り上がり、楽しめました。ショーだけもあるようなので、ワイキキあたりで好きな食事をし、観賞するのもありだと思います。
Thank you very much for bringing your family to the Rockaflava Original Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your experience. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラオリジナルワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーに御家族でご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
Beautiful boat ride along Honolulu, Waikiki and the crater Volcano. The crew made sure everyone on the boat saw each whale sighting and what direction they were sited in. We saw them 5 times on our excursion.
I thought we would head out to the open sea, but we actually progressed to a distance where we could see land from Waikiki Beach to just past Diamond Head. I was half in doubt, wondering if we would really see whales this close. I thought the chances of seeing them were even lower than seeing the aurora, so I didn't have high expectations, but we did see them. Two whales? showed us their spouts multiple times, and the boat followed them closely. Although we didn't see their tails or large bodies, I was satisfied. I couldn't believe we could see them so close to shore; it felt like they were either trained or robotic. Since it was a large boat, there was little rocking, so I didn't have to worry about seasickness.
沖の方に出るのかと思ったらワイキキビーチからダイヤモンドヘッドの先あたりまで、陸が見える距離を進み、こんな近くに鯨が出るの??と半信半疑でした。出現確率もオーロラより低いんじゃないの?とあまり期待していませんでしたが、見れました。2頭?が何度も潮吹きを見せてくれて、船も追いかけるように進んでくれました。尾びれや大きな姿は見れませんでしたが満足しました。こんなに近海で見れるなんて、飼いならしているかロボットか?と思うほどでした。大きな船なので、揺れも少なくて船酔いの心配なし。

It's a show that delights tourists. You can enjoy it with dinner included. The shows featuring Presley and Michael Jackson were a hit even with Americans, and the audience was singing along.
観光客に喜ばれるショーです。ディナー付きで楽しめます。プレスリーとマイケルジャクソンのショーはアメリカ人にとってもウケて、客席の方々歌ってました。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafura Rockin' Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the performances of Elvis, Michael, and the Hawaiian show. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.

Food and service was good. Views were outstanding. Nice entertainment.
This was the best luau! I would highly recommend this experience! The family and I really enjoyed this celebration and would definitely come back next time we are on island!
The activities were great but the whole staff is awemazing!
Purchasing on line was a breeze. Check in was quick and easy. The all-female crew was professional, knowledgeable, and FUN. Cruising along the Waikiki shore was exhilarating and relaxing at the same time, and we had no problem seeing whales. We even got to see the illusive tail flip! Cannot recommend this enough. It was the highlight of our vacation. (We were first-time Waikiki visitors)
Our quide, Dexter was excellent. He was very thoughtful and professional. He made an otherwise rainy, gloomy day a fun day. The tour gave us a great overview.
Glad we were able to put some sunshine in your day! Mahalo for joining us!
I recommend this tour and asking for Travis! He was the best thing about the tour! He made our family feel welcome and took time to show us all the local stuff and really explain life there. Mahalo Travis, thanks again!
After the bus arrived, there was an explanation by a Japanese person before entry, which was very good. I was also satisfied with the pool itself. The all-you-can-drink option was great as well.
バス到着後、入場までの間に日本人による説明があり、非常によかったです。プール自体も満足しました。飲み放題もよかったです
It was disappointing that the first bus was not on time, but other than that, I was satisfied. I had a great time and enjoyed it thoroughly.
始めのバスが時間通りでなかったことが残念ですが、それ以外は、満足です楽しかったです、十分に楽しめました
I participated in whale watching with Star of Honolulu. The large vessel provided excellent stability. The whales did not breach as much as shown in the promotional videos, and I regret having set my expectations too high. It's difficult to meet expectations when dealing with nature.
スターオブホノルルでのホエールウォッチングに参加しました。
大きい船体で安定感抜群でした。
クジラの姿は資料映像ほど跳ね上がることがなく、期待しすぎていたと反省です。自然相手ではなかなか期待通りにはいかないものです。

Perfectly organised day, from communication prior to the day to everyone involved in sny part of the tour.
The guide was great, hugely knowledgeable and interesting.
The helicopter trip was perhaps the most incredible thing I have ever done. The ground crew were superb and the pilot made it the best trip ever. After waiting 30 years to do this tour it didn't disappoint.
Could not recommend it highly enough.
This is a very special Adventure and glad we were able to show you the beauty of Kauai. Now you know why they call it the Garden Isle
I could clearly see the back of a whale. The weather was nice, and the largest boat in Hawaii was comfortable with little rocking. I recommend bringing a jacket as the air conditioning is quite strong.
クジラの背中かハッキリ見えました。
天気もよく、ハワイで一番大きな船てゆれもすくなく快適でした。
冷房が大変きいているので上着を持って行くことをお勧めします。

I only saw the whales twice, and they were quite far away. I was hoping to see them up closer, so I was a bit disappointed. But since it's a natural occurrence, it can't be helped. However, the view of Waikiki from the sea was quite impressive, and I was satisfied.
くじらは、2回、遠くに見えた程度でした。もっと、近くで見えるかと思っていたので、すこし残念でした。自然のものなので、しょうがないですね。でも、海からのワイキキの景観は、なかなかのもので、満足しました。

There were staff members who could speak Japanese, which made me feel at ease to participate. It was the rainy season, so it rained on and off, but I had a great time. I didn't see any honu while snorkeling, but since we had some free time left, they took us by boat to a place where we could see honu, and I was able to see them! It was so much fun.
日本語が話せるスタッフさんがいらっしゃり、安心して参加をすることが出来ました。
雨季だったので雨が降ったり止んだりでしたがとても楽しめました。
シュノーケリングではホヌが見られなかったのですが、自由時間が余ったため、船でホヌが見られる場所に連れて行っていただき見ることが出来ました!
とても楽しかったです。
Aloha! Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. I sincerely apologize that the weather was not perfect. However, I am truly glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour despite that. I am very pleased to hear that you encountered a rainbow, which is a symbol of Hawaii, and the honu, which is said to bring good luck. Please come back to the Paradise of the Sea to experience the beautiful nature again. We look forward to that day with all our hearts. Mahalo nui loa!
アロハ! キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。 この度はツアーにご参加頂きましてありがとうございました。
天候はパーフェクトではなかったようで大変申し訳ございません。でもそんな中ツアーを楽しんで頂けて本当に良かったです。
ハワイのシンボルでもある虹と、幸運を運んでくると呼ばれるホヌにも遭遇出来たとお聞きして大変嬉しく思います。
ぜひまた美しい自然に会いに天国の海にお越しください。その日を心よりお待ちしております。Mahalo nui loa!
I was set on a tour that stopped at just the Sandbar, my mom insisted we do a tour that went to 2 locations... She was right! The sandbar is awesome and I encourage people to get out and walk around while you're there, play volleyball (if you want) or just enjoy being on land while under about 2 feet of water! Its wild! A Puffer Fish greeted us! She was much bigger than what I thought puffer fish were. We had burgers and drinks and were off to our second location ... the reef!! On our way we saw a bunch of sea turtles! They were HUGE! Some swam right up close to the boat! It was incredible. It was after a mild storm so the water wasn't 100% clear but still fairly clear. There were tons of colorful fish swimming all around us. I took a few mins to swim around the whole reef! Which every time I popped my head up and saw I was further away from the boat was a little scary and exciting! It was such a fantastic adventure day! My mom loved it, my kids were a little afraid at first at the reef but came to love it too! The crew... let me not forget about the crew! They are absolutely amazing! Knowledgeable, friendly,... when my daughter started to cry (9 years old) they knew her name and kept encouraging her! It was the sweetest! My son thought the main guide/lifeguard was the coolest and just wanted to swim where ever he swam (7 years old). The captain on our boat that day was a lady and also super friendly! Highly recommend to all ages and all skill levels! (I had my cell phone with a water protected case - i highly recommend. I purchased mine before the trip from REI, they sold similar ones in the ABC stores in Hawaii.)
The morning whale watching cruise was excellent! The weather was perfect and the crew were friendly and informative. Before taking off we learned a few facts about whales and were able to purchase a snack from the snack bar. The cruise itself was magnificent and we saw several whales. It was such a a delight! I'd also like to mention that the restrooms on board the boat were extremely clean (When on a tour this isn't something you always encounter). My friend and I had a splendid time. We would not hesitate to take this cruise again. The one thing everyone should be aware of though is the parking fee. The boat does not valid and parking in the adjacent lot was a bit pricey.
I wasn't able to see dolphins, but I did get to see whales and turtles. Since they are wild animals, there's no guarantee you'll see them, so I actually feel grateful for the experience of seeing the less common animals. Oh, but maybe that's because I was able to see dolphins twice in the past, in Hawaii and Guam.
イルカを観る事ができませんでしたが、クジラや亀を観る事ができました。
野生動物である限り絶対はないので、イルカを見られないという事も
あるんだなあと、逆に確率の少ない方の経験ができて良かったという感想です。
あ、でも、それは、私は過去にハワイとグアムで2回、イルカを観る事が
できたからかも知れません。
From the easy pick up from our hotel, drive to ship, on the whale watching adventure to return trip, we had a great time.
We participated in a plan with transportation for a total of four people, including a 3-year-old and a 0-year-old. The hotel we stayed at was not the designated pickup location, but a nearby hotel was specified for the pickup based on our application. We brought a stroller of the buggy type, and it was transported and used without any issues.
We were lucky to see whales multiple times. On the deck, we enjoyed the breeze, and even from the indoor area with tables and chairs, we could sit and watch the whales, allowing us to see them from either environment. The 3-year-old was entertained throughout the experience.
The explanations and announcements (such as the direction of the whales) were in English. Although the kids did not get seasick, I thought it would have been nice to have the option for my husband to take motion sickness medication since he experienced seasickness.
3歳、0歳を連れた計4人で送迎付きのプランで参加をしました。
私たちの宿泊したホテルは送迎ピックアップの場所ではなかったのですが、申し込み内容と合わせてピックアップ場所(最寄りのホテル)が指定されました。バギータイプのベビーカーを持参しましたが、問題なく運搬し利用できました。
私たちは運が良くクジラを何度も見ることができました。デッキ上は風を感じながら楽しめ、テーブル椅子がある室内からでも座りながらクジラが見れたりと、環境に合わせてどちらからでもクジラが見れます。3歳の子も最後まで飽きずに楽しんでいました。
説明やアナウンス(クジラのいる方向など)は英語です。
子供達は船酔いしなかったものの、旦那が船酔いをしていたため、酔い止めを飲む選択もあったら良かったかなと思いました。
Thank you very much for bringing your family on our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching and the views from the ship. We have ginger pills available on board to help with seasickness. Please do let us know next time. All of our staff look forward to welcoming you again.
この度は私共のクルーズに御家族でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。クジラの観測や船からの景色をお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。船上では船酔い止めのジョンジャーピルをご用意しております。次回は是非お声をおかけください。またのお越しをスタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
I participated in whale watching. I was able to spot a whale from a distance. I wanted to see it a bit closer, but the wind was pleasant, and I enjoyed the cruise. It was quite cold, so a long-sleeved jacket is essential. I hesitated about the pickup service being more expensive than meeting on-site, but I think if I had gone to the meeting point, there would have been so many boats that I wouldn't have known where to go. I'm glad I chose the pickup service, as it allowed me to participate with peace of mind.
ホエールウォッチングに参加しました。遠目にですが、クジラの姿も確認できました。もう少し近くで見たかったですが、風も気持ちよくてクルーズとして楽しめました。寒いくらいなので、長袖の上着は必須です。お迎えつきは現地集合よりも高くて迷いましたが、現地集合では、船が沢山あって、どこに行ったらいいか分からなかったと思います。安心して参加できたので、お迎えつきで良かったです。
The hula show lesson was lively, with participants enjoying themselves. The buffet had an overwhelming volume, and the roast beef was delicious.
The entertainment show that followed was very realistic, and even if you're not a fan of Elvis or Michael, you'll have a great time.
フラショーのレッスンがあり、楽しく参加されてる方々が盛り上がってました。食事は、ビュッフェで食べきれないボリュームでローストビーフがおいしかったです。
移動してのエンターテイメントショーも、リアリティーがあり
エルビスやマイケルのファンでなくてもすごく楽しめますよ。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the luau buffet, as well as the performances by Elvis, Michael, and the Hawaiian show. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラVIPワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。ルアウブッフェのお食事、エルビスやマイケルそして、ハワイアンショーなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
We really enjoyed this trip! It was my husband birthday’
Thank you so much for choosing our Kaneohe sandbar tour for your husband birthday. We are so happy to know that we could be a part of it. We hope that we can welcome you both on board again.
Happy belated birthday to your husband, and warmest wishes from all of us at Captain Bruce. Mahalo and A hui hou!
We had a family of eight on this tour and all enjoyed themselves.
The bus arrived at our pickup point on time. The driver/host was very knowledgeable about Pearl Harbor as well as other local sites. The only slight drawback was the sound system on the bus was acting up and occasionally produced feedback (no the fault of the driver/host). She dealt with it as best she could.
We arrived at all the tour points of interest on time and had plenty of time to view each. Given the clear instructions from the driver/host, we knew exactly when to be where.
The lunch was good and the location in the aviation museum was enjoyable.
We finally were returned to the pickup point, also on time.
All-in-all a very enjoyable and interesting day. I highly recommend it.
