I'm glad I could see it! ^_^ みれてよかった^_^

Reviewed by: ミミちゃん

I was worried about the bad weather until the day before, but we set sail safely.
When I strained my eyes on the fourth floor, I spotted some splashes of water.
It was far away, but I was moved to see the jumps!
After that, I was able to see them many more times, which made me very satisfied!
Aside from the initial briefing area being a bit cramped and crowded, and the fact that only the first floor restroom was available, I was very satisfied.
There were some people who seemed to be seasick, possibly due to the slightly high waves. I chose this option because I felt reassured that I could try again if I didn't see anything, and I think it was a good choice.

前日までの悪天候で心配しましたが無事出航
4階で目を凝らしていると水しぶき発見　
遠かったけどジャンプもみれて感動^_^
そのあとも何度も見られて満足満足！
最初の説明会場が手狭で密集してたのとトイレが一階しか利用できなかったのを除けば大満足です
波が少し高かったのか船酔いしてる人が見受けられました　もし見られなければもう一度チャレンジできる安心感で選びましたが良い選択だったと思います

I encountered whales several times on a large boat, and the view of Oahu from the sea was amazing. 大きな船で何度かクジラに遭遇、海の上からのオアフ島の眺めも最高

Reviewed by: 水戸黄門

I was worried about seasickness, so I chose the largest sightseeing boat on Oahu. The view as we left the harbor and passed through Waikiki towards Diamond Head was simply amazing. As we got closer to Diamond Head, we encountered a family of whales three times. A group of about three, possibly a mother and her calves, surfaced for air, and every time they spouted water, cheers erupted. Onboard, there was a briefing about where to look when whales were spotted, which made the experience enjoyable. It seems this boat is also used for Sunset Dinner Cruises at night, and it had a restaurant onboard. Next time, I definitely want to experience the Sunset Cruise.

船酔いが心配だったのでオアフ島で一番大きいという観光船を選択。港をでてワイキキ沖を通ってダイヤモンドヘッドに向かう景色は、それだけで素晴らしいものです。ダイヤモンドヘッドに近くなったころに、クジラの家族？に三度遭遇。親子なのか三頭くらいの群れが呼吸のために海面に出てきて汐を吹くたびに歓声があがりました。船内では、クジラが見えたときのアナウンスと見る方向などが事前にレクチャーされており、楽しめました。この船は夜はSunset Dinnerクルーズなどに使われているようで、レストランも完備されていました。次回は是非、Sunsetクルーズを体験してみたいと思います。

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: たまちゃん

I participated in a whale watching tour with my middle school son. The pickup was near our hotel, but there were other tours, and when the bus arrived, it turned out to be for a different tour. After that, our tour bus arrived, but the pickup was a bit delayed. The bus was clean, and there was no typical bus smell, making it comfortable.

Once on board, we listened to explanations in a large dining area on the first floor, where those who wanted could pay for meals. All the staff were locals, so the explanations were in solid English. After the briefing, we could go up to the deck.

We waited at a spot where whales were expected to appear. The boat rocked quite a bit while moving and even while waiting. I took motion sickness medication, but those who are prone to seasickness might get nauseous. I got seasick quickly and rested on a chair on the deck.

We saw a few dolphins. I heard that when a whale appears, they announce it by saying "○ o'clock," so I was lying down and seemed to have missed it when it showed up. My son noticed it because someone next to him murmured about the spout, and he saw it when they said "3 o'clock," so he apparently saw it twice. The whales were quite far away, as shown in the photos, while the dolphins were relatively close.

中学生の息子とホエールウォッチングに参加しました。
ピッキングは宿泊ホテルの近くでしたが、他のツアーの方もいて時間に来たバスが来たので聞いてみると違うツアーでした。その後当ツアーのバスが来ましたが、お迎えは少し時間が遅れていました。バス内は清潔でバス特有の匂いもなく快適でした。
乗船し、1階の食事が出来る大部屋で説明を聞きながら希望者は有料で食事が出来ます。スタッフは全員現地の方なので、説明もガチ英語。
説明が終わったらデッキへ上がれます。
出没スポットと思われるところで待機。船は走っているときも待機中も結構揺れます。酔い止めを飲んでいましたが、乗り物酔いしやすい方は酔ってしまうでしょう。私はすぐに酔ってしまい、デッキの横になれるチェアで休んでいました。
イルカが数匹見れました。
「○oclck」とクジラがでたらアナウンスされると聞いたので、横になっていましたが気づかないうちに現れていたようです。
息子は隣の人が呟いたため気づいて見えた潮吹きと、「3o'clock」と言われてみたので計2回見えたようです。クジラは写真の通り遠巻きで、イルカは割と近くで見えます。

The pickup did not come. お迎えが来ませんでした

Reviewed by: 匿名

I was supposed to participate with a pickup from the Lacroix Hotel. Even after 15 minutes had passed, no one arrived, and when I called the contact number that said, "Please contact us if you haven't been picked up after 5 minutes," I received a message saying it was outside of business hours, leaving me at a loss. When I consulted with the front desk at the Lacroix Hotel, they kindly made a call and connected me with a Japanese woman from the tour company. After explaining the situation, I was told, "Your pickup is at Sheraton Waikiki. The pickup time for today has already passed. You can take a taxi at your own expense." I mentioned that I had requested the pickup from the Lacroix Hotel from the beginning, that I had already paid for the service including the pickup, and that it didn't have to be today, and only then was I finally offered a reschedule. It was very disappointing that they spoke as if it was my mistake from the start without trying to find the cause of the misunderstanding, and their response reflected that. Since it was a family trip, I rescheduled for the next day, but honestly, I felt like canceling due to their handling of the situation. If a customer cancels on the day of, they incur a cancellation fee, so I thought it would be reasonable for them to provide compensation for this incident. The next day, the pickup was also more than 15 minutes late, and when I called, I couldn't get through, just like the day before. Fortunately, there was another family scheduled to participate, and they received a call about a 20-minute delay on their mobile phone, and I felt relieved when I saw the bus arrive shortly after. However, I was truly disappointed with these experiences over two consecutive days.

Managing time to avoid being late with young children and planning this trip with excitement for months, it is regrettable to have to go through such anxiety and discomfort. I also emailed Veltra about the lack of pickup, and they promptly and very kindly intervened with the tour company. It was through Veltra's contact that I learned for the first time that the pickup location had mistakenly been set to Sheraton Waikiki. The tour company did not provide any explanation or apology regarding this mistake and spoke as if it was a communication error between Veltra and the tour company. While I understand that mistakes can happen, I believe it is very rude not to offer a sincere explanation or apology. I recommend Veltra, but I do not recommend this tour company.

ラクロワホテルお迎えで参加予定でした。15分過ぎても来ず、「当日5分過ぎたら連絡ください」という連絡先に電話しても営業時間外というアナウンスが流れ、途方に暮れていました。ラクロワホテルのフロントの方に相談すると電話をかけてくださり催行会社の日本人女性の方と繋げてくれました。経緯をお話すると「シェラトンワイキキお迎えになっています。今日のお迎え時間はもう過ぎています。自費になりますがタクシーで来ていただいてもいいです。」と言われました。申込時からラクロワホテルでお願いしていること、送迎込みの金額をすでにお支払いしていること、今日でなくてもよいことを伝えるとようやく振替を提案されました。行き違いの原因を探そうともせず最初からこちらのミスであるような言い方をされ、それを踏まえた対応をされたのは大変遺憾でした。せっかくの家族旅行なので翌日に振り替ましたが正直キャンセルしてもいいと思うくらいの対応でした。お客側が当日キャンセルしたらキャンセル料が発生するのですから、今回はこちらにもそれに見合った弁償があってもいいのではないかと思いました。翌日もお迎えは15分以上遅れ、電話をかけても昨日と同じく繋がりませんでした。幸い参加予定のご家族がもう一組おり、そちらの携帯に20分ほど過ぎたころ遅延している旨電話が来て、すぐにバスが見えたので安心しました。しかし2日連続のこれらの対応には本当にがっかりしました。
幼いこどもを連れて時間に遅れないよう時間管理をし、何ヶ月も前からスケジュールを立てて楽しみに旅行に来ているのに、こんな不安な思いや不快な思いをしなければならないのは残念です。
ベルトラさんにもメールでお迎えが来ない旨ご相談したのですが、催行会社との間に入り、迅速に大変親身にご対応いただきました。ベルトラさんからのご連絡で初めて催行会社側のミスで送迎先がシェラトンワイキキになっていたことを知りました。催行会社の方はその旨の説明も謝罪もなく、ベルトラさんと催行会社の間での伝達ミスのような言い方をされました。ミスをするのは人間なのでしょうがないと思います。しかし誠実な説明や謝罪ないのはこちらに対して大変失礼だと思います。
ベルトラさんはおすすめしますが、こちらの催行会社はおすすめしません。

At first, I saw a small whale, about 5 meters long, showing its dorsal fin and tail fin about three times. After that, I spotted a mother whale, which seemed to be just under 10 meters long, showing its dorsal fin and spouting water about three times. The waves were about 3 meters high, and the boat rocked a bit, but it was very enjoyable.

I participated in a honeymoon trip at the end of January. I checked in at 8:00 and we departed right on time at 8:45! It seems like checking in just 15 minutes before departure would still be fine.

Onboard, you can purchase drinks and light snacks like bagels. The ship has four floors, and the restrooms were clean and plentiful, which was reassuring.

It was a whale watching tour, and we were lucky to see a pod of dolphins right after we set sail! We also caught a few glimpses of the whales, which was incredibly exciting, especially when we saw their tails! (Due to conservation regulations, we couldn't get too close.) It was a tour that satisfied my desire to experience the grandeur of the ocean and see wild whales.

ハネムーン旅行で、1月末に参加しました。
8:00に受付でチェックインして、8:45に定刻通り出航しました！チェックインは出航時間の15分前とかでも全然間に合いそうな感じです。
船内ではドリンクやベーグルなどの軽食が購入出来ます。4階建ての船で、トイレも綺麗で数も多かったので安心できました。

ホエールウォッチングツアーでしたが、出航してすぐにイルカの群れも見れてラッキーでした！
本命のクジラは、ぴょこっと出てくれたのが数回あり、尻尾も見れて大感動です！！

Also, depending on the day, it can be quite windy outside, which might feel chilly. I hope to join again next time and see some whales.

I could see a little. 少し見えました

Reviewed by: あっこ

In early January, I was able to see whales spouting and their tails. However, I didn't see the whales in the way shown in the reference photo. Still, the cruising experience itself was enjoyable! Viewing Waikiki from the sea, the airplanes flying in the sky, and the gentle sunlight felt very pleasant.

Unfortunately, I got seasick on the return trip and had to rush to the restroom several times... It wasn't particularly rough, and I usually don't get motion sickness. There were many other passengers, including children, but it seemed I was the only one who got seasick.

I chose a plan without transportation and took a taxi from my hotel in Waikiki. I thought the driver might have taken a longer route, but it cost about $40 including the tip.

After getting out of the taxi, I was unsure where to go, but when I headed towards the docked boat, I found a desk and people there, which helped me realize that was the check-in area, so I showed my voucher.

Once on board, there was an immediate photo service from the boat staff, and later, a staff member came around to see if we wanted to buy the developed photos. We purchased them for about $35. It seems many people chose not to buy.

There is a Japanese information board at the waiting area tables inside the boat, so it's good to read that beforehand.

Since I boarded early, the staff asked if I wanted to order snacks. I don't think it's necessary to order, but I requested a bagel and coffee, and I paid in cash including a tip for the staff who brought it. Other early boarders, including some foreigners, also placed orders.

The restrooms were bright, spacious, and clean.

The crew and staff were all cheerful and friendly. All announcements and conversations from the staff were in English, but there were recorded announcements in Japanese explaining about the whales.

Most of the customers were from Western countries, and there were fewer Japanese. The crowd ranged from families with children to seniors.

It was a sunny day, but with the sea breeze and sunlight, I think it's best to wear clothing that allows for temperature regulation. I wore a long-sleeved cover-up and jeans, and I didn't feel hot.

Since this is a winter-only activity, I think it's a great idea for those who can participate during this season!

1月上旬でクジラは潮吹きと尾ビレが見えました。
参考例の写真のようなクジラの姿は見られなかったです。
でも、クルージング自体も楽しかったです！海から見るワイキキ 、空を飛ぶ飛行機、穏やかな日差しなど、とても気持ち良かったです。

ただ、私は復路で船酔いしてしまい、何度もトイレに駆け込みました…。特別揺れがひどいわけではなかったですし、乗り物酔いしない方ではあったのですが。
同船者は子供も含めて他にも沢山いましたが、船酔いしたのは私だけだったようです。

送迎はなしのプランで、ワイキキのホテルからタクシーで行きました。少し遠回りされたかもと思いましたが、チップ含めて40ドルくらいでした。

タクシーを降りた後、どこに行けば良いか迷いましたが、停泊していた船の方に行ってみると、デスクと人がいてそこが受付だなと分かってバウチャーを見せました。

乗船後は、すぐに船側から記念撮影のサービスがあり、後程現像された写真を買わないかとスタッフが回ってきます。うちは買いました。確か35ドルくらいでした。買わない方も多いようです。

船内の待合スペースのテーブルには日本語での案内ボードがありますので、それを読んでおくと良いです。

早くに乗っていたので、船内スタッフから軽食のオーダーを聞かれました。頼まなくても良いと思いますが、うちはベーグルとコーヒーをお願いし、運んでくれたスタッフへのチップも含めて現金で支払いました。早くに乗っていた方は他の外国人さんも含めて頼んでいました。

トイレも明るく広くて綺麗でした。

クルー、スタッフは皆さんにこやかでフレンドリーです。
スタッフのお話や放送はすべて英語ですが、録音放送で日本語によるクジラの説明などがあります。

お客様は欧米の方が多く、日本人は少なめでした。お子様連れからシニア層まで幅広い客層でした。

よく晴れていましたが、海風や日差しもあるので、体温調節できる服装がいいと思います。私は長袖の羽織にとジーンズで行きました。暑いとは思わなかったです。

冬限定のアクティビティなので、時期が合う方は参加されるといいと思います！

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。

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。

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.

I was lucky to see a lot of whales. 運がよくクジラをたくさん見れました。

Reviewed by: ma

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。

The scenery is amazing! 景色が最高！

Reviewed by: おし

The day before the experience, it was raining heavily, so I was worried about the weather, but those worries were unnecessary as it turned out to be a clear day. The waves were not high, and I was able to participate with a calm mind. However, on the day we participated, no whales appeared... I was disappointed since we joined to see whales, but it was my first time cruising on a boat in Hawaii, and as I was taking in the scenery, I realized that we were approaching the goal before I knew it! After the experience, tickets for a return trip on the boat were distributed! I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises.

体験前日、大雨が降っていたため、天候の心配をしておりましたが、そんな心配は無用で快晴でした。波も高くなく、落ち着いた気持ちで参加することができました。ですが、私たちが参加した日は、クジラが現れず…
クジラを見に参加したので残念でしたが、ハワイで船に乗ってクルーズする経験が初めてで、景色をじっくりと見ていたら、いつのまにかゴールが近づいていました！
体験後、後日船に再乗船できるチケットを配布しておりました！
また機会があればぜひ参加したいと思っています。

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

Whale Bad Luck

Reviewed by: Natalie

We did not see any whales after going twice on the trip but nonetheless the staff was very helpful, encouraging, and fun! Just a bit of bad luck with the whales! The cruise was easy and there was plenty of space on the ship. At the end of the day, it was a lovely whaleless cruise along the coast which was relaxing and enjoyable.

ノバファイブスター サンセットディナークルーズ スターオブホノルル号 最上階の専用フロア＆プライベートテーブルでいただくプライムテンダーロイン付き5コース

Fireworks on Friday from the boat. 金曜日の花火を船上から

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The food and atmosphere were great. I chose the 5-star option to watch the Hilton fireworks from the deck on Friday, but people from the lower floor started removing the chain from the stairs and crowded onto the deck before the fireworks started. After quite some time, the staff began to check if people were 5-star guests, but I thought it was too late.

お料理も雰囲気も良かったです。金曜日でデッキからヒルトンの花火を見るために5スターにしたのですが、花火の時間前から下のフロアーの人が、階段のチェーンを外しデッキに入ってくて混雑。
だいぶ経ってからスタッフが５スターかどうか確認を始めましたが遅いかと思います。

I was able to see whales perfectly!! ばっちりクジラが見れました！！

Reviewed by: koo

We participated in whale watching for the first time as a parent and child. We were very moved to see two whales! We were able to witness breaching, which we had only seen on TV, right in front of us multiple times! I think there must be some timing involved, but it felt like we were quite lucky on the day we participated. My 6-year-old was captivated by the whales they saw for the first time. We created wonderful memories in Hawaii.

初めてのホエールウォッチングに親子で参加しました。
2頭のくじらに会えてとても感動しました^_^
テレビでしか見たことのないブリーチングも目の前で何度も見れました！
きっとタイミングなどあると思いますが私達が参加した日はかなりラッキーだったような気がします^_^
6歳の子供も初めて見るくじらに釘付けでした。
ハワイのとてもいい思い出ができました。

Whale behind Diamond Head! ❣️ ダイヤモンドヘッドバックにホエール❣️

Reviewed by: なべさんさん

I was looking forward to participating since they were confident about whale watching. They mentioned that if we didn't see any whales, we would receive a free pass for the next time. The explanations were easy to understand, and they said that humpback whales come up to breathe every 45 minutes. We saw over 30 whales swimming around, but they were hard to spot. Just when I was about to give up, suddenly they appeared! The first one was a baby, and the second was an adult whale, posing beautifully with Diamond Head in the background! It was an incredibly satisfying tour. It might be a good idea to have some motion sickness medication on hand.

ホエールウォッチングに自信ありとのことでしたので、楽しみにして参加しました。万一見られなかった場合でも次回無料パスを頂けるとのこと。説明もわかりやすく、ザトウクジラは45分に1回海上に呼吸をしにくるとのことで、30以上回遊してましたが、中々現れず。今日はもう駄目かと諦めかけた瞬間、その時は突然やってきました。1頭目はベイビー、2頭目は大人のクジラで、ダイヤモンドモンドヘッドをバックにハイポーズ❣️
大大満足のツアーでした。船酔いの薬があった方が良いかも知れませんねー
