Oahu
This was my second time on a catamaran to see the fireworks on Friday. The luxurious experience of watching fireworks from the sea will remain a cherished memory of my trip to Hawaii. I participated with my parents in their 70s, and they enjoyed it as well. The daytime catamaran is nice, but the night experience is also great as you can see the starry sky. However, it's unfortunate that since alcohol is a free drink, there are many people who get drunk, and some use the restroom with the door wide open, so it might be better to sit far from the restroom.
金曜日の花火を見るカタマランは二度目です。
海から花火を見る贅沢な時間が、ハワイ旅行の思い出として残ります。
70代の両親を連れての参加でしたが、両親も楽しんでいました。
日中のカタマランも良いですが、夜の参加も星空が見れて、とてもよいです。
ただ残念なのは、アルコールがフリードリンクになるので、酔っ払ってる方が多く、トイレも扉を開けっぱなしで使ったり、かなりタチの悪い人もいるので、トイレから遠い席に座った方が良いかもしれません。
I attended with my 1 year and 4 month old son, and I was happy that the crew members were so affectionate towards him. Since he doesn't understand things like whales yet, I thought it might be nice to participate again when he does. I didn't sign up for breakfast, but from what I saw at the buffet, I think it was a good decision not to sign up.
1歳4ヶ月の息子を連れて参加しましたがクルーの皆さんが息子を可愛がってくれて嬉しかったです。
まだ今はクジラなど分からないのでまた分かるようになったら参加してもいいかなっと思いました。
私は朝食を申し込みませんでしたがブッフェ台を見た感じ申し込まないでよかったと思いました^^;
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
I hope your children enjoyed it as well.
Please come again.
All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.

Amazing tour!! Captain Brad, Adam, and Chris did a great job pointing out whales. We saw 6 including a baby. Beautiful sunset made the trip even more special. The boat was spotless and comfortable. The food was good and they had a good selection of trips. The boat trip on the catermaran was fun and it wasn’t too crowded. Highly recommend this tour!
I participated in an all-Hawaii cruise tour. I joined because I was longing to see the beautiful sandbars like in the pictures, but unfortunately, the water was deeper than knee-high... And above all, it was very cold since it was March. The snorkeling was quite chilly due to the low seawater temperature. However, the delicious BBQ lunch made up for those downsides! The tour guide was also very nice. When I go to Hawaii again, I will definitely try to get my sandbar revenge with this company.
オールハワイ・クルーズのツアーに参加しました。写真で見るようなキレイなサンドバーに憧れての参加でしたが残念ながら膝丈以上の深さ、、、。そして何より3月ということもあり非常に寒かった。シュノーケリングも海水温が非常に低く凍える寒さ。しかしそのマイナス面を補ってくれるBBQランチの美味さ!!そして添乗員さんも非常に良い方でした。またハワイに行く際はこちらの会社でサンバーリベンジします。
Second time I have used this tour to get to and from Hanauma Bay. Especially a great value if you already have your own snorkeling equipment as you can take the price down a few dollars without equipment rental.
Go first thing in the morning and be ready to get into the water by 8am or earlier. That way you can snorkel without the crowds until the circus arrives around 10am. By then I had already gotten 2 full hours of relatively unspoiled pics of all that I wanted to take and enjoyed lounging on the beach until the pickup time.
It was an experience like no other, and I had so much fun! The captain and crew were kind and made it enjoyable, so I felt at ease taking on the challenge. I want to ride again!
今まで体験したことのない感覚ですごく楽しめました!
船長さんたちも優しく、楽しませてくれたので安心して挑めました。
もう一度乗りたいです!
This was an amazing experience and exceeded our expectations
Highly recommend this to everyone
Views are fantastic
Staff are amazing
Will be back
VELTRA - is a great company to book through
I appreciated that the shuttle service to the hotel was included, and it was great that it was okay to be wet as long as I had a bath towel laid out. I chose the 150-meter option, and even as someone with a fear of heights, I was able to enjoy it. The local crew took beautiful photos with a single-lens camera, which made for even more memorable moments.
ホテルまでの送迎付きで、バスタオルさえ敷いていれば濡れていてもOKなのが有り難かったです。150メートルを選択しましたが、高所恐怖症でも楽しめました。現地クルーの方が一眼で綺麗に写真を撮ってくれたので、更に思い出になりました。
I was scared before it started, but it seems like I had fun when it was over. Now I want to try the 150m ride!
始まる前は怖がっていましたが
終わると楽しかったみたく
今度は150mに乗りたい言ってました^o^
When I arrived at the luggage pickup area, a person in an aloha shirt called my name, and I recognized them right away. It took about 30 minutes to get my luggage, but they waited for me. After confirming the name of the hotel I was staying at, we departed with about ten people on board. There was traffic, and it took about an hour from the airport to the hotel in Waikiki, so I was glad I chose the shuttle bus.
荷物受け取り所に着くとアロハシャツの方が
私の名前を呼んでくれ、すぐにわかりました。荷物をとるまで30分位かかりましたが待っていてくれました。宿泊のホテル名を確認したあと10人位を乗せて出発しました。渋滞しており、空港からワイキキのホテルまでは1時間位かかったのでシャトルバスにして良かったと思いました。
This was a wonderful experience! Whale watching was great. Brad, Adam, and Chris were very friendly. They were helpful pointing out where the whales were. We saw 5 or more whales. Even a baby. The boat is clean and comfortable. Food was good and they had a good selection of drinks. Highly recommend this tour!
This time, I only requested transportation from Hyatt Waikiki to the airport. The Hyatt has a tour-specific exit facing Koam Street, and there were guests who seemed confused and wandering around, but your company provided a well-written voucher, and after waiting for a few minutes at the valet parking side, a friendly driver came to pick me up. On the shared bus, the driver introduced himself and explained in English the order of drop-offs for each airline at the airport. As always, I felt secure with your company once I got on the bus. There is another company, but without a doubt, Roberts is a reliable company. I will continue to use your services. Thank you very much.
今回はHyatt Waikikiから空港までの送りだけをお願いしました。Hyattにはコア通りに面したツアー専用の出口があり、戸惑って右往左往している宿泊者がいましたが御社からは丁寧に書かれたバウチャーでvalet parking 側で待つこと数分で愛想のいいドライバーが迎えに来てくれました。混載バスで最後のピックアップ場所で自己紹介とこれからの空港までの各エアラインの降車順を英語で説明してくれました。毎回のことですが乗れば安心の御社。もう一社ありますが断然、ロバーツは安心できる会社。これからも使わせていただきます。ありがとうございました。
This was a great cruise. It was very relaxing. The catamaran was well-maintained and clean...even the bathroom!
The crew, Captain Brad, Chris, and Adam were very friendly. They offered to take pictures, informed us about the area and Were very quick to spot Whales.
The food was good, particularly the spring rolls.
The sunset was beautiful!
The captain did a good job making sure that we were able to have the best view of the sunset. We saw several Whales, including a juvenile.
The drinks were delicious.
Be sure to bring a sweatshirt or light jacket if going in February.
I participated on February 13. At first, I couldn't see anything at all, but after heading offshore, I saw it a couple of times, albeit small. Just like when I went dolphin watching before, it's really up to luck on the day. However, the weather was nice, and I was satisfied because I could see Diamond Head beautifully. The food was as expected, with limited variety and average taste. When I had dinner on the same boat before, the all-you-can-eat crab was really delicious, and there was a show, so I thought the evening experience might be more worthwhile.
2月13日に参加しました。
初めは全く見えませんでしたが沖合いに出てから二回ほど小さく見えました。
以前にイルカウォッチングに行った時と同じくこればかりは当日の運次第です。
でも天気が良くてダイヤモンドヘッドも綺麗に見えたので満足です。
食事は予想通り種類も少なくてお味も普通です。
以前同じ船にディナーで乗った時のカニ食べ放題は本当に美味しくショーもあったのでやっぱり夜の方がお得かなと思いました。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We were glad to have good weather!
Please come again.
All of our staff are looking forward to your visit.

Great choice for a whale watch especially if you have children or people in your group who are more sensitive to motion sickness. The thing that sets this whale watch apart from all the others is size and stability of the boat and all of the activities available on board while heading out to look for whales. This could almost be described as a fun Hawaiian tropical lunch cruise with whales. In addition to a delicious lunch buffet and frequent whale sightings there is also hula lessons, lei making and ukulele lessons. The captain and crew are always on the look out for whales, so while you are doing the activities the captain will announce which side of the boat the whales are on so you do not miss any of the whale action while eating or participating in the activities. With whales being wild animals and not always predictable in where they will be, having activities to keep the kids occupied makes this a great option for families
Worth it! I was always skeptical about going on dinner cruises and did not know what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. To start off, the crew really does go above and beyond to ensure a perfect experience. You start the evening off with a Bellini toast and some delicious appetizers on the top, back deck where there is a ukulele player and a hula dancer. From there they take your party to your table on the inside top deck of the ship. Throughout the course of 7 course dinner, which was amazing, there are musicians playing. The music was perfect for dinner. Not too loud but made for a very enjoyable, entertaining evening. I would recommend the 5-star dinner for couples more than families with children. While it is enjoyable for the whole family, the ambiance make for an exceptionally romantic and memorable evening in Hawaii with that special someone.
Exploring Oahu can be so much fun and Germaine's Luau is one of them! Mind you, I have been to mostly all the Luaus on the island but not for Germaine's. I was only convinced to try when many of my "social media" friends were posting and saying good things about it.
I'm a local resident here, and three of my friends from the mainland came to visit so we decided to join the Luau. They took the bus transportation from Waikiki provided by Germaine's and I drove to meet them there. I checked-in half hour early which gave me ample time to explore around the area and take photos. It’s actually a very nice place! Beautiful private beachfront setting with a view of the spectacular sunset!
We ordered the Hibiscus Package which included 3 drink tickets that I was given immediately at the time of check-in. We had a nice center seating section, which provided a better viewing of the Polynesian entertainment. On our way to the bar and to the buffet line, my friends and I decided to leave our sandals under our bench table and went barefoot through the sand because it was difficult to walk in. It was still a fun night, your feet touching the sand makes it a unique Luau experience.
Their drinks..I think their cups are small but since I got 3, it was just good enough for me! The food was delicious, and lots of Polynesian entertainment! All of my expectations were met. Definitely recommended.
Aloha Ms Ems,
Thank you so much for your comments about your evening with us. As a local resident we really appreciate you coming with your friends to enjoy a night out. Most locals are pleasantly surprised how relaxed & comfortable they feel. So sorry you weren't aware of the special with the Drink Glasses, but the Escorts on the Buses mention it to the guests on the way to the luau. The Gate person doesn't always have time with so many people checking in at the gate. It's a great deal with the glasses, no matter which package you choose. So happy you enjoyed the food, and our entertainment. You chose the most popular package, the Hibiscus Luau Package, and I'm so glad you were happy with your choice. I hope you will tell your family and friends about your experience, and bring more friends out to our luau again sometime in the future, we really love to have our Kama'ainas out there!!
Sincerely,
Paulette

I was able to play on a beautiful course and had a great time. The driving range was spacious, and I got to hit from the grass, which made me feel like I was preparing for a pro tour. I am very satisfied.
I signed up to play alone. It's often difficult to make reservations for one person, and I was only able to confirm my reservation a week in advance. I went directly to the location (by rental car) instead of using a shuttle. It takes about 50 minutes from Waikiki, so considering golf in Japan, it wasn't stressful at all.
When playing alone, you usually get placed in a group of two or three, but the downside is that the other players need to agree for the reservation to be confirmed. In my case, I joined a couple from Ibaraki, and we played as a threesome.
綺麗なコースで楽しくプレイすることが出来ました。ドライビングレンジも広くまた芝の上から打てて、プロツアーの練習前の気分を味わえました。大変満足してます。
私は一人での申し込みでプレイしました。一人だと中々予約が取れず、ギリギリ一週間前の予約確定で、また送迎付きではなく現地へ直接行って(レンタカー)エントリーしました。ワイキキから余裕で50分位なので、日本でのゴルフを考えるとストレスはなかったです。
一人の場合は、二人とか、三人の組みに入れてもらうことになるのですが、同伴者がokしてくれないと予約確定しないのが、難点ですかね。私の場合は、茨城から参加のご夫婦の組みに入れてもらい、3サムでのプレイでした。
I was worried about what I would do if I couldn't see them, but I was able to see the baby whales multiple times!
見ることができなかったらどうしようと思っていましたが、子供のクジラを何度も見ることができました!
アロハ、レビューとVELTRAを通じてアトランティスクルーズのホエールウォッチツアーをご予約いただきありがとうございます。マジェスティック号でのクルーズを楽しんでいただけたと聞いて嬉しいです。

Aloha, thank you for your review and for booking an Atlantis Cruises Whale Watch tour through VELTRA. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your cruise aboard the Majestic.
We appreciate your feedback and hope you can join us again soon. Mahalo!
Out to sea by boat! At a distance of 150 meters, we went up and up, but without any fear, and we even saw whales. It was the best eight minutes. I participated in a one-piece swimsuit, but I didn't get wet and landed safely on the boat! The staff were cheerful and it was a lot of fun! Thank you very much.
ボートで沖に!150m選択で、上がる、上がる、
でも怖さ無く、鯨も見えて、最高の8分間でした。
ワンピースで参加しましたが、濡れず、
ボートに無事着地!スタッフさんも陽気で楽しかった!
ありがとうございました。
As soon as we left the port, without even having time to prepare, we encountered a pod of dolphins! After diving in and enjoying that, we also saw sea turtles and stingrays. I never expected to see a whale before heading back after playing on the SUP. When it was really time to go back, I realized that my digital camera, which the captain had around his neck, was missing... Even though I said, "It's okay," everyone helped look for it in the water. Within five minutes, Maiko found it, and everything was a surprise! Thank you, everyone.
港を出てすぐ、準備をする暇もなくイルカの群れがーっ!急いで飛び込み堪能したところでウミガメ、エイも登場。
SUPで遊んで帰港する前にクジラまで見られるなんて思いもしませんでした。
で、ホントに帰るとなった時にキャプテンが首からかけていた私のデジカメが無いことに気付いて…
「もういいよー」と言っているのに皆で海の中を探してくれました。
5分もしないうちにマイコーが見つけてくれて、何もかもがサプライズ!
みなさんありがとうございました。
Thank you for participating in the tour. It seems like it was a lucky tour where you could see rays as well. We look forward to having you join us again next time!

I also requested this for my return.
It takes about 30 minutes from Honolulu to the airport, but the driver took about an hour as he drove around various places that aren't typically included in the sightseeing route.
I would like to request this again.
帰りもこちらにお願いしました。
ホノルルから、空港までは約30分位なのですが、ドライバーさんが観光では回らないところを結構いろいろ回りながら走ってくれたので1時間位かけてくれました。
またお願いしたいですね。
It was the kids' first surfing experience. My son was able to stand up on the board from the first day, and my daughter quickly learned to do the same. By the end, both kids were even riding while holding hands! If you want to start surfing, I recommend signing up here.
子供達の初サーフィンでした。
息子は、1本日から立てるようになり、娘もすぐに立てるようになりました。最後の方は、子供達二人で手を繋ぎながらのライディングまで出来るように!サーフィンを始めたいならこちらに申し込みをお勧めします。
I initially booked the Lealea trolley bus with a travel agency, but this option was definitely cheaper and allowed for a more comfortable journey. I will likely use this service again next time.
始めに旅行会社の送迎付きレアレアトロリーバスを申し込みましたが、断然こちらの方が格安でゆったり移動出来ました。次回もたのむことでしょう。
We went on our honeymoon. Swimming with dolphins requires a lot of stamina... I was able to see one dolphin swimming from a distance.
When viewing dolphins from the boat, it was so much fun to see them mating and to be able to watch many dolphins chasing the boat up close! Just this experience made it worth participating in the tour. I was also moved to see three sea turtles!! It was my first time snorkeling, and there were so many fish, plus we were able to take a lot of photos, which was great! I wish we could buy the photo data just for ourselves, even if it was a bit pricey. I don't need the ones with everyone in them... But it became the best memory!
新婚旅行で行きました。イルカと泳ぐのは体力が必要です・・・。泳いでいるイルカを遠目で1匹見れました。
船からイルカを見るときは、交尾とかみれたり、船おっかけてくるたくさんのイルカが凄く至近距離で見れたりとっても楽しかったです!!これだけでツアー参加して良かったです。ウミガメも3匹いて感動しました!!初のシュノーケリングでしたが魚もたくさんいて、写真も沢山撮ってもらえてよかったです!!写真データが、自分たちだけのでも、多少割高でいいので買えたらいいのになーって思いました。みんながうつってるやつはいらないです・・・。でも最高な思い出になりました。
Thank you for participating in the tour.
We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed it.
We look forward to your participation next time!

There wasn't much explanation when we boarded, and it was a bit confusing, so I ended up sitting in a different area on another floor. After we set off for a while, we succeeded in seeing whales! We were able to see spouts and tails several times! There was an announcement about the direction, so I could quickly follow the whales with my eyes. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see any jumps, and I wished we could have seen them a bit closer, but since they are wild animals, things don't always go as we hope. Still, I'm glad we got to see the whales!
乗船した時の説明があまりなかったのと分かりづらかったので違う階のスペースに座ってしまってました。出発してしばらく経つとクジラを見ることに成功!潮吹きや尾びれなど何回か見ることができました!何時の方向ってアナウンスがあるので、すぐにクジラを目で追うことが出来ました。残念ながらジャンプは見れませんでしたし、もう少し近くでも見れたらなぁと思いましたが自然や生き物ですから思う通りにはならないですよね。でもちゃんとクジラが見れて良かったです!
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We apologize for the lack of clear explanations at the beginning.
We will share your comments internally and use them to improve in the future.
We hope to see you again. It would be great if you could see the whales jumping next time!

I didn't have high expectations for the massage at the resort, but it was quite skilled compared to those I've received in Japan. (It also suited me well.) There was no unnecessary chatter during the treatment, allowing me to relax completely.
The 60-minute course included acupressure (back) → oil massage (back) → oil massage (feet) → oil massage (decollete & neck/head), and the balance was great, leaving me feeling refreshed. If it was this good, I wish I had opted for a longer course!
If time and money allow, I think it would be perfect to have a short course after arriving in Hawaii and a longer course on the evening of the last day.
One thing to note is that there are no paper underwear provided, so you'll be treated in your own underwear. There is that lingering feeling from the oil massage on your skin and some dishevelment of your hair, so it's a good idea to plan this for the end of your outing or bring a hat for reassurance.
I believe getting two treatments here is more worthwhile than one at a luxury hotel!
リゾート地のマッサージには期待をしてませんでしたが、日本で今まで受けてきたのと比べてもかなり上手いマッサージでした。(相性もあるので、上手い&私に合っていた)
施術中の無駄話も一切なくリラックス出来ました。
指圧(背面)→オイルマッサージ(背面)→オイルマッサージ(足)→オイルマッサージ(デコルテ&首・頭)で60分のコースでしたがバランスも良くスッキリしました。こんなに上手なら、もう少し長いコースにすれば良かったー!
お金と時間が許すならハワイ到着後に短いコース、ハワイ最終日の夕方に長いコースをやると最高だと思います。
注意点として、紙パンツなどはないので自前の下着での施術になります。
オイルマッサージ特有の肌に残る感じ&髪の毛の乱れはありますので、お出かけの最後にするか帽子の準備などがあると安心です。
高級ホテルのマッサージ1回やるより、こちらで2回受ける方がお得だと思いますよ〜!

It was my first time surfing, and there was a staff member who was friendly and spoke Japanese well, which helped me manage to stand up! Since I had a one-year-old child, my husband and I took turns participating, but we managed to ride the waves about 5 or 6 times in total. The two hours flew by, and it was a wonderful experience! I was so into it that I didn't even notice they were taking photos. This time was beginner-friendly, so next time I’d like to challenge myself with slightly bigger waves!
初サーフィンでしたが、日本語が上手で気さくなスタッフさんが1人いらっしゃり、なんとか立ち上がれました!
一歳の子供がいたので主人と2人で交替しながらの参加でしたが、合計5,6回は波に乗れました。あっという間の2時間でしたが、とても良い経験ができました!
写真は撮られていることにも全く気付かないくらいでした。
今回は初心者向けだったので、次回はもう少し高い波にも挑戦してみたいです♪
The longest zip line on Oahu was truly exhilarating and amazing! The instructors were all friendly and really helped to create a lively atmosphere.
オアフ島最長のzip lineは本当に気持ち良くて最高でした‼️インストラクターの方々も気さくな人ばかりで場を盛り上げてくれます
It was exciting to go parasailing after a long time. The moment we went up, there was a bit of speed, but before I knew it, we were quite high up, and it felt amazing. The pickup and the entire process were smooth without any long waits. Since it was the first tour of the day, it was great for planning the rest of the day's activities.
久しぶりのパラセイリングでドキドキでした。
上に上がる瞬間は少しスピードがありましたが、あっという間にかなり高い所まであがり、すごく気持ちよかったです。
お迎えから終了まで特に待たされる事もなくスムーズな案内でした。
朝一のツアーなので、そのあとの予定も組みやすくて良かったです。
