Sunset Cruise サンセットクルーズ

Reviewed by: Asa Eri

There were two changes to the meeting location after making the reservation. I couldn't check my email for the second change, so I received a call in English from the hotel. I only caught the part about the sunset cruise, but since I didn't intend to book a sunset cruise, I said I didn't understand and hung up. After that, I received a message in Japanese and was able to confirm the change in the meeting location, which was good.

I joined the tour because I wanted to see wild dolphins, so I asked the staff if we would see dolphins soon. They told me that it would be lucky to see dolphins on the evening cruise, which was disappointing. The morning tour is brighter, making it easier to spot dorsal fins, and since many other boats are out, the chances of seeing dolphins are about 95%. If we don't see any, we can participate again.

On the day of the tour, it was very cold, but the water at the snorkeling point was warm, and the beautiful blue gradient of the sea with white sand was stunning. I saw a lot of fish, so I was satisfied with the snorkeling. Although the temperature was cold, the boat had hot water showers, which was very nice.

In the end, I didn't see any dolphins, but I was able to catch a glimpse of a whale's dorsal fin for a moment. There were also Japanese staff members, and I think I would have been very satisfied if I had participated in the sunset cruise.

予約をしてから2回の集合場所の変更がありました。2回目の変更はメールの確認が出来る状況でなかったので、ホテルに英語で連絡がきました。
サンセットクルーズだけ聞き取れたのですが、サンセットクルーズを予約したつもりがなかったので分らないと言って電話を切りました。その後、日本語で連絡をもらって集合場所の変更を確認できたのでよかったです。
野生のイルカを見たくて参加のツアーでしたので、早々にイルカを見れるのかをスタッフの方に聞いてみると夕方のクルーズはイルカが見れたらラッキーだといわれてガッカリ。
午前中のツアーは明るいので背びれを見つけやすく、他の船が沢山出ているのでイルカにあえる確立は95％くらいで見られなかったらもう一回参加できるそうです。
当日は、すごく寒かったのですがシュノーケルポイントの海水は暖かく白い砂とブルーのグラデーションの海の中はとてもキレイでした。魚も沢山見れたのでシュノーケルは満足です。
気温が寒かったですが、船には温水シャワーが付いていたのでとても良かったです。
結局、イルカは見れなかったのですがクジラの背びれを一瞬だけ見ることができました。
日本人のスタッフの方もいて、サンセットクルーズとして参加していれば大満足だったと思います。

Wild Dolphin Watching & Snorkeling Cruise / ☆Members Only Monitor Tour☆ / Evening Cruise 野生のイルカウォッチング＆シュノーケルクルーズ / ☆会員様限定モニターツアー☆／夕方クルーズ

Reviewed by: ハワイ初心者

This was my first time in Hawaii, and I wanted to see dolphins and sea turtles, so I signed up for an optional tour. The email correspondence and responses leading up to the day were quick, which made us, as first-time participants, feel very reassured and excited.

The meeting place on-site was easy to find, and the bus guide called out our names, so there were no issues until we gathered.

Regarding the tour, we were unable to see any dolphins. We had high expectations of seeing dolphins based on the tour name, but it was just a cruising experience. When I asked the locals, they mentioned that dolphins are rarely seen in the evening because it gets dark, making it difficult to spot them. While this is part of the wild experience, it was a bit disappointing.

The snorkeling was great, as there was a Japanese guide who taught us very thoroughly. We were able to see a lot of fish, which was nice.

As for the food, the variety was limited, and it felt more like a light snack than dinner. I think there are some areas for improvement in the tour content, but the staff from the tour company and the locals were very kind, so I would like to rely on them again when I visit Hawaii next time.

今回初めてのハワイでイルカと海ガメはみたいと思い、オプションツアーに申し込みをしました。
当日までのメールのやり取りや対応は素早く、初めて申し込む私たちは大変安心をして心待ちにしておりました。
現地での集合場所も分かりやすく、バスガイドの方も名前を呼んでくれたため、集合までは特に申し分ありませんでした。
ツアーに関してですが、イルカは見ることはできませんでした。ツアー名からイルカを見れる期待がありましたが、ただクルージングしてるだけでした。現地の方に聞くと夕方はイルカはほとんど見れないみたいです。夕方だと暗くなるので探すのが難しいみたいです。野生ならではでありますが、ちょっと残念でした。
シュノーケリングは、日本人のガイドさんもいて大変丁寧に教えていたたぎました。魚がたくさん見れたので良かったです。
ご飯に関しては種類は少なく、ディナーと言うより軽食でした。
ツアー内容に関しては多少改善していただけるともっといいのになと思うことはありますが、ツアー企画会社の方や現地の方は大変親切でしたので、またハワイに行くときはお世話になりたいなと思います。

Unable to encounter... 遭遇出来ず…

Reviewed by: hwii

I participated in this tour. Unfortunately, I was unable to encounter the main attractions, which were dolphins and turtles; it turned out to be just a cruising and snorkeling tour. Since nature is unpredictable, I understand, but it was disappointing that the experience fell far short of my expectations.

I joined the evening plan, but according to the staff, there is a higher chance of encountering dolphins and turtles during the daytime.

The snorkeling was quite cold, but the sea was beautiful, which made me satisfied. However, since they were attracting fish with bait, if there is no bait, you wouldn't see any fish at all, just some coral, so I didn't feel much of a connection to nature.

As for the cruising, there was some rocking, but it wasn't rough, and I didn't feel seasick. However, it was very disappointing not to encounter the dolphins, which were the main attraction. The weather was nice, and I was moved by the sunset! The colors of the sky on the way back were very beautiful, and I was satisfied.

Overall, this tour felt like an à la carte experience without a main dish, but the side dishes were delicious.

Aside from the tour overview, I thought the catering was sufficient in terms of drinks and food. As someone who doesn't particularly seek alcohol, I was quite satisfied with the variety offered.

Regarding the service, there were Japanese staff members who were attentive and provided thorough explanations, so I didn't have any trouble even though I couldn't speak English. I had a meaningful time! Thank you very much.

I hope to have a chance to try again next time.

今回のツアーに参加させて頂きました。表題のメインであるイルカ、亀に遭遇は出来ず、ただのクルージング&シュノーケリングツアーでした。自然が相手なので仕方ないですが想像は大きく下回る結果だったのは残念です。

参加した時間帯が夕方プランだったのですがスタッフさん曰く日中の方がイルカ、亀には遭遇出来る可能性は高いらしいです。

シュノーケリングに関してはかなり寒かったのですが海は綺麗で満足する事が出来ました。しかし餌で魚を引き寄せていたので餌がない場合は全く魚も見れず珊瑚のみが見えたレベルなので自然感は感じられずでした。

クルージングに関しては揺れはあるものの粗くなく酔う事はありませんでした。しかし、メインであるイルカに遭遇出来なかった事は非常に残念でした。天気が良かった事もありSUNSETが見れたのは感動しました！帰りの空の色は非常に綺麗で満足する事が出来ました。

今回のツアーに関してはメインディシュのないアラカルトが美味しいツアーみたいな感じでした。

ツアー概要は別としてケータリングに関しては呑み物、食べ物は充分だったと思います。特にアルコールを求めない自分としてはかなり満足いくバリエーションでした。

対応に関しては日本人スタッフが居てくれ、気に掛けて頂いたり、丁寧な説明もあり、英語が喋れなくても困る事もなく有意義な時間を過ごせました！本当にありがとうございました。

次回、再チャレンジ出来たらと思います。

I couldn't participate. 参加できなかった

Reviewed by: hiraoka

I gathered at the Hyatt Regency Hotel on ○○ Street at 6:15 AM, woke up at 5:30, and was at the meeting place 10 minutes early, but the bus didn't arrive. When I asked the hotel staff, I realized it was on the opposite street. I ran to ○○ Street and arrived at the meeting place by 6:17, but there was no one there. Thinking the pickup hadn't arrived yet, I asked other tour company staff present, and they said, "They usually wait for about 10 minutes, so if they haven't come by 30 minutes, you should contact them." So I waited. When they still didn't come, I called the number listed, but it was too early to connect since it was outside of business hours, and the voicemail was in English and quite fast, so I couldn't understand it. I had no choice but to wait until the business hours started at 7:00 to call again, but there was only English-speaking staff, and we couldn't communicate. I explained the situation at the Japanese counter of the Hyatt Regency Hotel, and when they spoke on my behalf, they said, "We waited for about 5 minutes, but since no one came, we left. You can either change the date or try to catch a taxi right now, but it might be too late." Since I had booked optional tours online for other days, I couldn't change it, and I didn't even know the tour location, so I had no choice but to cancel.

Other tour participants were waiting for their people to arrive, and if the phone had connected, I might have made it in time. Above all, the fact that there wasn't a single staff member who could speak Japanese was the most frustrating part.

I reserved a rotating restaurant with a night view on this site, but there were no Japanese-speaking staff there either, and the transportation to Tantalus was not scheduled properly, so it ended up being the same time as the meal. I wanted to go to Tantalus more than have dinner, but I couldn't go, and I really thought I shouldn't have made a reservation on this site!

朝6:15にハイアット・リージェンシーホテルの○○通り集合で、5:30に起きて10分前には集合場所にいたが、バスが来なくてホテルの人に聞くと反対の通りだったことに気がついた。走って○○通りまで行って6:17には集合場所にいたが、姿はなく、まだお迎え来てないのだと思い、そこにいた他のツアー会社の人などにきくと、『大体10分くらいしかは待ってくれるから30分まで待っても来なかったら連絡してみればいいよ』と言われたので待っていた。それでも来なかったので書かれていたところに電話すると、時間が早いため営業時間外で繋がらず留守電も英語でかなり早いためききとれなかった。仕方なく営業開始時間の7:00まで待ってから電話すると、英語スタッフしか居なくて私たちでの会話は無理だった。ハイアット・リージェンシーホテルの日本語カウンターで経緯を説明し、会話してもらうと、『5分くらい待ったが来なかったので出発した。日にちを変えるか、今からすぐにタクシーを拾ってきてもギリギリ間に合うか分からないくらい』とのことだった。他の日もネットでオプショナルツアーを入れていたため変更はきかず、ツアー開催場所も分からないくらいのでやむを得ず断然した。
他のツアーの人は人が来るまで待っていてくれていたし、電話が繋がればすぐに行って間に合ったかもしれないし、なにしろ、日本語が話せるスタッフが一人もいない事が一番嫌だった。

このサイトで夜景の見える回転式レストランを予約したが、そこにも日本語が話せるスタッフはいなくて付いてくるはずのタンタラスの丘送迎も時間設定ができず、勝手に食事開始時間と同じになってしまうため食事よりもタンタラスの丘に行きたかったのに行けず、本当にこのサイトで予約しちゃだめだ！と思った。

Nice afternoon out on the catamaran

Reviewed by: Mary Butler

We took the afternoon dolphin watch cruise that set sail at 1pm. Saw some sea turtles and a dolphin pod from afar. The snorkelling was nothing great...lots of reef fishes and mostly dead coral. Being prone to motion sickness, I was elated at how wonderfully stable the catamaran was, and for once I actually enjoyed sailing instead of spending half my time being sick over the rails. In spite of my disappointment at not seeing dolphins up close, the afternoon turned out to be a really pleasant cruise along the beautiful Ko Olina coastline. The staff were attentive and friendly. My 3 year son threw a fit when I got him out of the choppy waters during the snorkelling session. Kudos to the staff who successfully quietened him down by giving him bread to feed the fishes from the back of the ship. Food was great. Pulled pork sandwiches, chips and fruit salad were delicious. All in all, a lovely afternoon.

It was fun :)

Reviewed by: shell

We had such a great time both on the boat and in the water.
The food was great and staff members were all super nice and sweet.
I really appreciate it!

The only one bad thing for me was that I didn't remember/they didn't know how much it cost. I reserved this tour through the internet in advance like 10 days ago and payed with my credit card. Since my friends(there were 5 of us) tried to pay me by cash at the day of the tour but the voucher didn't mention about the price, I asked at the front how much they charged on my credit card. And the lady checked my name on the list and PC and said it's $485. I thought it's a little more inexpensive than I thought, so I asked her to double check and she said it's correct. So we just split the bill. But I found that they charged $695, which was the correct amount, after I left hawaii and got back home...Unfortunately all other friends are form other countries, so I gave up getting the difference in the bill from them. :(
I think the total amount should be on the voucher or at least they should have gave me correct info!

We enjoyed the time we had on this cruise. The staff, food and boat were great. The only issue we had was with another passenger who would push, shove and step on everyone around him. There were also tons of pictures of him on the available USB for sale and only handfuls of all the other passengers.

We randomly picked this cruise based on the activities and meal provided and couldn't have chosen better! The bus ride from Waikiki was on time and relaxing, and once we arrived at the pier, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and fun! The dolphins were the highlight, in my opinion, but my friends loved the snorkeling and BBQ lunch and open bar.

Beautiful Day in Ko Olina

Reviewed by: Marisa

Get ready for a fun time on this catamaran! The dolphins are a plenty and are in their hibernating season so they stay close to the coast. While you don't get in the water surrounded by dolphins, it keeps them safe, so it's good for everyone. There were so many kinds of fish and it was fun to swim through them. It was a nice cool day, and the dolphins were definitely out there. They got nice and close to the boat! The snorkel was amazing. By lunchtime, I was looking forward to food. The Captain is a fine cook and knows his way around a boat so it's double bonus for us. We had the tasty teriyaki chicken sandwich, which I can proudly give 5 stars! Try the Naked Pirate drink. It's awesome! The crew on the boat was friendly and managed to keep it fun for everyone even with a bunch of little kids running around. It's family-friendly and they made sure those kids stayed safe. This catamaran sail is worth every penny and then some. I highly recommend!

Snorkeling for the Family

Reviewed by: Petals4Zuzu

The crew was great, the ship was great, the meal was very good, the cruise was exciting and the snorkel equipment was excellent. The water was particularly choppy due to high winds and that made snorkeling for only the fittest among us difficult. The two youngest (12 and 17) had no problem and were in fact the last ones out of the water. We saw a couple sea turtles, a bottle-nose dolphin, and a couple pods of humpbacks (in the distance). Overall, circumstances beyond the crew's control being what they were, we really enjoyed this excursion.

Ko Olina Snuba Sail

Reviewed by: Reena

Our group of 17 took the afternoon sail. The crew wants to have as much fun as their guests so they do their best to create a memorable experience. One meal, snacks, non-alcoholic drinks and complete snorkel gear is included in the cost.

There are two locations where swimming among sea turtles is likely. For $5 you can get a quart size of fish food and it is suggested to feed the fish at the last location. Divers don't mind diving to the bottom and up close to the marine life with your waterproof camera to get some amazing shots - just ask them. A photographer comes along to capture all the beautiful moments both on board and underwater. A dvd of 500+ photos of your trip for $65 is worth it.

Served during the last snorkling location, our family style lunch of kalua pork and teriyaki chicken sliders with all the trimmings was plentiful and satisfying. Alocholic drinks are $4.

Great first-time deep sea snorkling experience. Would definitely go again with these guys! Mahalo!

Good experience, but not amazing snorkeling

Reviewed by: User038575

I gave an ok/average rating because this was an expensive excursion and the snorkeling was not up to par. The staff was incredible---- friendly, fun and courteous, but this seemed to be a boat ride geared toward hanging out and drinking on the boat rather than seeing awesome fish, coral reefs, etc. We had 2 snorkel stops and fish/turtles were average. But the crew made sure we saw dolphins from the boat, which was cool.

As far as snorkeling, it was nothing too interesting especially because my husband and I have done amazing snorkeling in Maui and Bora Bora. If you want to drink and relax for an afternoon, this is a top choice. But, a little too expensive for what you get if you are really into snorkeling and seeing different kinds of underwater life.

My husband, 7 month old son, and I had a great experience with this activity during snorkeling and snuba. We got lucky, and one of the guest/crew members watched our son (who mostly slept) so we had the opportunity to both go together for the snorkeling and snuba. The catamaran we took was a great ship. The crew was very accommodating, nice, funny, and took care of everyone, including a woman who lost her camera in the water, and when my hubby got a little overwhelmed in the beginning during snuba. The food was okay, but definitely helped after a good amount of time time in the water. I would defintely do it again. The great crew actually made a huge difference too!

I participated at the beginning of November. １１月始めに参加しました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I decided on this tour after reading various experiences. We gathered early in the morning and traveled to the site by bus. The boat was beautiful, and there were drinks and light snacks like cupcakes and yogurt available for us to enjoy at any time. For lunch, there was a light buffet with hamburgers, rice, meat, and potatoes, but I couldn't eat much due to fatigue, seasickness, and drowsiness. I had lunch again separately after returning.

Most of the participants were foreigners, with only a few Japanese. The tour guide was American, but there was one person who spoke fluent Japanese, providing explanations in Japanese after the English ones.

The weather was nice that day, but we had a hard time spotting dolphins and turtles. We stopped for about an hour to enjoy snorkeling. The water was crystal clear and beautiful. It was fun to throw food and have many fish come right up to me. I was considering diving the next day, but snorkeling was enjoyable enough.

After that, we returned to the boat and finally encountered dolphins. About ten dolphins swam near the boat, seemingly playing with us, and they were really cute.

It was early November, and the sea wasn't too cold, but it did get chilly after being in the water for a long time. You can rent a wetsuit for about ten dollars at the port's reception, not through the tour company. They sell snacks, drinks, and port T-shirts and goods, resembling a souvenir corner, but I didn't see anyone buying anything in particular.

As for wallets, you can leave your belongings or towels on the tables or chairs inside the boat, so it's better not to carry cards or large amounts of cash just in case. It was mentioned that you should bring your passport if you plan to drink alcohol, but I wasn't asked to show it. So, it would be good to have about twenty dollars in a pouch just in case, but I ended up not using any cash at all.

Also, after swimming, it gets cold, so a bath towel and a hoodie or T-shirt to wear on top are essential.

Even if you don't usually get seasick, it's a good idea to bring motion sickness medication. The boat isn't that small or shaky, but since we left early in the morning and I hadn't eaten much for breakfast, I did feel a bit nauseous.

After about an hour of snorkeling and sunbathing for a long time, the early morning conditions were surprisingly tiring, and most people were fast asleep on the bus ride back in the afternoon.

体験談を色々読んでこちらに決めました。朝早く集合してバスで現地まで移動。船は綺麗で、室内にはいつでも自由に飲食できる飲み物、カップケーキやヨーグルトなど軽食がありました。昼食も軽いビュッフェ形式のハンバーガー、ご飯、お肉、ポテト、など出ましたが、疲れや酔いと眠気が手伝ってあまり食べれず。帰って別でまた昼食をとりました。

ほとんどの参加者が外国人で、日本人は少しだけ。ツアー催行者の方もアメリカ人ですが、一人日本語がペラペラな方がいて、日本人にも英語の説明の後に日本語で説明してくれます。

この日は天気は良かったのですがなかなかイルカもカメも見つからず、とりあえず停舶して1時間ほどスノーケリングを楽しみました。海の中は透き通ってすごく綺麗。エサを放り投げてたくさんの魚が目の前まで来て楽しかったです。ダイビングを次の日に考えてましたが、スノーケリングで十分楽しめます。

その後、船に戻ってようやくイルカに出会えました。本当にわざとやってるのかと思うほど１０頭ほどのイルカが船の近くで一緒に「遊ぼう！遊ぼう！」と泳いで、とてもかわいかったです。

１１月始めですが、さほど海は冷たくなかったですが、長いこと入っていると寒くなってきます。ウェットスーツは１０ドルかな？でツアー会社ではなく港の受付で借りれます。ここではお菓子、飲み物や港のTシャツやらグッズ等が売っていて、お土産コーナーのようですが、特に何か買ってる人はいなかったです、、。

お財布などは船内のテーブルや椅子の上に荷物やタオルを置いておくかんじなので、カードや大金は念のため持ち歩かないようにしたほうがいいです。お酒を飲む場合のパスポート持参と書かれていましたが特に提示を聞かれませんでした。なので、ポーチに万が一のために２０ドルくらい入れていけばいい感じですが、結局一銭も現金は使っていません。

あとは、泳いだ後が寒いのでバスタオルと上に着るパーカーもしくはTシャツは必須です。

あまり乗り物に酔わない人でも酔い止めは持参したほうがいいです。そこまで小型で揺れる船ではないですが、朝早いので朝食をあまりとってなかったりすると酔います。

1時間ほどのスノーケリング、日差しの下で長い間日焼け、朝早いというコンディションは意外に疲れ、昼の帰りのバスはほとんどの人が爆睡してました。午後からアク

3-Hour Ko Olina Snorkel Cruise & Dolphin Watching Tour with Deli Lunch & Drinks

Had a great time...

Reviewed by: MrsL

Ko Olina is a gorgeous area, very picturesque with manicured grounds and on the early morning tour it's just lovely to drive through here with the sun shining. First thing I was really impressed with was the Catamaran, it's very large and luxurious, I couldn't wait to get aboard! They make you take your shoes off before boarding and they store them for you until you return, you can tell this keeps the vessel from wear and tear... it was lovely inside.
Seeing the Dolphins was amazing - they do get close, the boat wasn't moving and they would come quite close to us, we didn't have to follow them. A few were jumping out of the water less than 100 yards away, such a great experience.
The staff were polite, knowledgeable and helpful - they would offer to grab you a drink - you didn't have to ask, which was really nice for a change. On the first snorkeling outing, we all had to wear life vests. I'm a pretty confident swimmer but this was nice, I could actually really relax and enjoy the

シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカやウミガメに出会えるチャンスも！？選べる8時／12時出港プラン＜ハワイアンプレートランチ＆アルコール4杯付き／ワイキキ送迎あり＞

The dolphins were cute. But... イルカは可愛かった。でも・・・

Reviewed by: どるふぃん

I had high expectations after reading other people's comments, but Jin was not there (>_<) Well, that's fine, but...
There was another young man, but he probably struggles with Japanese and Japanese people. He completely avoided eye contact with the Japanese group and ignored us when we tried to hand him fins and goggles.
A woman explained things in English and then in broken Japanese, but it was just a few words, about 10% of the time spent on English. So I felt a bit uneasy.
- I did see dolphins. They were cute.
- The food was delicious.

I had some communication issues with the tour office this time and had to make phone calls, but I couldn't understand much because they spoke too fast. I asked them to speak slowly, but... I was somewhat confident in my English conversation skills, but I'm particularly bad on the phone...

I dislike being around only Japanese people and have often participated in tours that are mainly in English, but if you want to swim and dive, which involves some risks, and want to receive sufficient explanations,
and if you think you might have trouble negotiating in English in case of issues or inconveniences,
then perhaps it would have been better to apply for a tour that is mainly for Japanese people or run by Japanese or Japanese-owned companies, even among Alan1's tours.

ほかの方のコメントを見ていて、期待していたんですが、ジン君はいませんでした(>_<)まぁそれはいいんですが・・・。
べつの青年がいましたが、彼は多分、日本語＆日本人が苦手なのでしょう、日本人グループには、絶対目を合わさなくてスルー、フィンやゴーグルも渡すときスルーされるんです。
女性の方が英語に続き、かたことの日本語で説明してくれましたが、ほんの一言、英語の10％くらいの時間です。だから少し不安でした。
・イルカは見れました。かわいかったです。
・食事は美味しかったです。

今回このツアーのオフィスと連絡の行き違いなどで電話したりしましたが、早口でほとんど聞きとれませんでした。ゆっくりお願いしますと言いましたが・・・。そこそこ英会話には自信あったんですが、電話だと特にダメですね・・・

日本人ばかりは嫌、色んな国の人と触れ合いたい、と英語メインのツアーによく参加してきましたが、
・泳いだり潜ったり、多少の危険が伴い、また充分な説明を受けたい
・トラブルや不都合なことがあった場合、英語で交渉できない
・・・と思われる場合は、alan1さんのツアーの中でも、
日本人＆日本語メインの、または日系や日本人が経営、主催のツアーに申し込んだほうが良かったのかな、
と思いました。
