Reviewed by: Erin

This was a fun way to spend my birthday. The captain and crew were super relaxed and funny, and the small size of the boat allowed for a sense of camaraderie and fun, as we zoomed through the water at high speeds (make sure to hold on!). Loved this intimate experience rather than some big show boat with a ton of people onboard.

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾　シュノーケリングツアー ＜軽食付き／英語ガイド＞

The Path of the Gods! 神々の道！

Reviewed by: Erica

I visited Kealakekua Bay, known as the Path of the Gods. The hotel I stayed at was the Sheraton, which was conveniently located just a short walk from the meeting point. Since it's the end point for the trolley, I think it's easy to get there even if you don't rent a car or stay at the Sheraton.

The guide spoke English and was very knowledgeable about history, answering any questions we had. Additionally, to protect the coral, we were allowed to use environmentally friendly sunscreen for free. The water was truly beautiful, and I was able to see many cute fish! It was February, but I enjoyed myself without a rash guard. It was a bit chilly, so I couldn't stay in the water the whole time... haha. After snorkeling, they provided fresh fruit, snacks, and drinks on the boat! It was really great!

神々の道と言われるケアラケクア湾に行きました。止まっていたホテルがシェラトンだったので歩いてすぐの集合場所で便利が良かったです。トロリーの終点なのでレンタカーしてない&シェラトン宿泊者じゃなくても行きやすいと思います。
ガイドは英語ですが、歴史の知識も豊富で聞けばなんでも答えてくれます。また珊瑚保護のため、環境に優しい日焼け止めも無料で使用させてもらえます。本当に水がキレイな場所なのでたくさんのかわいい魚たちを見ることができました！2月でしたが、ラッシュガードなしで楽しめました。少し寒くてフルタイムで水の中に入っていられなかったですが…笑　シュノーケルの後、船の上でフレッシュフルーツとスナック、飲み物を用意してくれますよ！とても良かったです！

Super lucky! 超ラッキー！

Reviewed by: まりん

The boat sways quite a bit, so at first, it's hard to walk, but during meal times, we anchor offshore, so you can relax. Moreover, at that time, a manta ray and many dolphins gathered around. I think they must have liked the singing. I can't remember the name, but there was a singer with the most beautiful voice singing live the whole time, and songs that felt very Hawaiian, which was truly soothing.
There was also a vegan menu, and the buffet was satisfying.

Most of the participants were from the mainland United States, and they were drinking and making a lot of noise, so even when I was trying to talk about history and the land, I couldn't hear it next to me. But overall, it was the best cruising experience. If you can't speak English, it might feel long and confusing as you won't know what's happening.

It was a bit disappointing that the sunset was partially hidden by clouds, but it was still a beautiful view. People who participated in the previous trip said they didn't encounter anything, so we were really lucky on our trip.

船はかなり揺れるので、最初は歩くのもやっとだけど、食事のときは沖で停泊するので落ち着いていただけます。しかも、この時、マンタが1匹と、イルカもたくさん集まってきました。きっと、歌声が好きだったんじゃないかと思いますお名前は覚えていないけど、最高に美しい声の歌手がずっと生歌を歌っていて、ハワイっぽい曲とか、本当に癒されました。
Veganメニューもあって、ビュッフェも満足でした。

参加者がほぼアメリカ本土から来た人たちばかりで、お酒飲んで大騒ぎするので、せっかく歴史や土地の話をしているのが隣に行っても聞こえないくらいだったけど、とにかく最高のcruisingでした。英語ができないと、何が起こってるか分らなく長く感じるかもしれないけど。

あとは、夕日が少し雲に隠れてしまったのが残念だけど、それでも美しい景色でした。前の便に参加した人たちは、何も出会えなかったそうで、私たちの便は本当に幸運に恵まれました。

Reviewed by: ハワイいいね

Snorkeling in the crystal-clear, calm waters of Kealakekua Bay was enjoyable for the kids as well. We were lucky enough to encounter a pod of dolphins, and they were playing chase with our boat. It was adorable!

The second deck of the boat offers fantastic views, but it sways quite a bit more up there. During the one-hour ride to the snorkeling spot, even passengers who usually don’t get seasick were feeling pretty worn out.

Lunch was a simple barbecue on board. It had an American-style flavor, but if you embrace that, it can be enjoyable. However, I was surprised that the soft drinks were only carbonated and that what was labeled as tropical fruit juice was actually a tropical cocktail (an alcoholic drink).

This tour has a predominantly English-speaking, mostly white crowd, so if you're feeling a bit weary of tours filled with only Japanese people and want to experience being abroad, I recommend it. Additionally, the snorkeling spot has calm waves, making it a good option for first-time snorkelers and families with children aged preschool and up.

透明度抜群の穏やかなケアラケクア湾でシュノーケリングは子供も楽しめました。我々は運良くイルカの群れに遭遇し、我々が乗っている船とイルカの集団が追いかけっこしていました。可愛かった！
船の2階デッキは見晴らし抜群ですが、船は2階の方が相当揺れます。シュノーケリング場所までの片道１時間で、普段は全く船酔いしない同乗者さえグッタリする程でした。
昼食は船内で行われた簡単なバーベキュー。アメリカンな大味ですが、それも含め楽しんでしまえばこっちのもの。ただ、表記されていた事から想像していたのと実際には違ったのはソフトドリンクは炭酸だけである事、トロピカルフルーツジュースではなくトロピカルカクテル(アルコールドリンク)だった事です。
英語オンリーの白人多めのツアーですから日本人ばかりのツアーにちょっと辟易して、海外に来たぞという気分を味わいたい方にはオススメです。
あと、シュノーケル場所は波が穏やかなのでシュノーケリング初体験者や幼稚園児以上の年齢のお子様がいらっしゃるご家族にもいいかもしれません。

When it comes to Hawaii, I've seen so many dolphin tours on TV that I thought I wouldn't be too surprised, but it was completely different. It was incredibly fun and is definitely something you should experience! The guides, Daisuke, Rei, and Koichiro, not only gently pointed out the direction of the dolphins but also ensured that the person who stayed on the boat kept an eye on everyone in the water, allowing us to safely and comfortably swim close to the dolphins.

You can't say you've been to Hawaii if you don't do this!

Even small children who can't put their faces in the water can enjoy it. 水に顔をつけられない小さい子も楽しめます

Reviewed by: おこりんぼママ

I participated with my 3-year-old and 6-year-old children. They provided a sheet with translations of the instructions in Japanese.

The ride to Kealakekua Bay was somewhat bumpy, and the kids sitting in the front seats on the first floor seemed a bit scared. However, once we arrived and saw a lot of fish in the calm sea, their fear seemed to disappear, and they actually enjoyed the return trip.

My 3-year-old usually dislikes getting water on his face, but when we borrowed a board to look underwater and showed him the fish points, he quietly enjoyed it. At first, he was scared to get on, but afterward, he wanted to ride again and had fun.

Breakfast and lunch were included (they served Costco muffins, which tasted just like the ones in Japan), and considering the prices in Hawaii, I think this is quite a good deal!

We visited various beaches on this trip, but my kids said this one was the most fun. Thank you to all the staff!

3歳と6歳の子供を連れて参加しました。注意事項などは日本語訳のシートを渡してくれます。
ケアラアクア湾に着くまではそれなりに揺れ、1階の前のシートに陣取った子供達は少し怖かった様ですが、現地について穏やかな海で沢山のお魚を見るとその恐怖も吹き飛んだのか帰りは寧ろ楽しんでいました。
3歳の子は水が顔にかかるのも嫌なくらいなのですが、水中が覗けるボードを借り、お魚ポイントを見せてあげると、黙って楽しんでいました。
最初乗るときは怖がってましたが、その後は自ら乗りたい！と楽しんでました。
朝食も昼食もついて(コストコのマフィンとかですが、日本のそれと変わらずの無難な味)ハワイの物価を考えるとこの値段はかなりお得だと思います！

Activities on Hawaii Island that even young children can enjoy! 幼児も楽しめるハワイ島のアクティビティ！

Reviewed by: Mgirl

I searched for activities that I could do with my 1 year and 11-month-old child on the Big Island of Hawaii and participated in one. Since we came all the way to the Big Island, I wanted to join activities that allow us to enjoy nature, but I thought there would be quite limited options for toddlers.

This snorkeling tour was enjoyable for both adults and toddlers! They provided rental snorkeling gear in adult sizes, as well as baby-sized safety vests and floaties, which you could choose between those with and without a seat.

By adjusting the playtime according to the water temperature and the baby's condition, we were able to have a great time. When we visited, the water temperature was a bit chilly, so we opted for the afternoon course with an hour and a half of snorkeling time, but we wrapped it up after about 30 minutes to accommodate the baby's condition. (The first 10 minutes of snorkeling time included a briefing on safety and a tutorial on how to use the snorkeling gear.)

During the remaining time, we relaxed in the sun while enjoying an all-you-can-eat snack and giving the baby some treats while admiring the beautiful scenery. My husband enjoyed snorkeling a bit longer and had fun on the diving slide.

We were able to fully enjoy snorkeling unique to the Big Island, seeing the clear water and many colorful fish! If you bring an underwater camera, the clear water allows you to capture adorable fish swarming around the coral reefs, which is a lot of fun.

The slide was quite high for someone like me who can't swim (you slide down from the second floor of the boat into the sea), but my husband seemed to enjoy it. It was hard to get bored, but if you do get tired of snorkeling, you can also enjoy the thrilling slide or diving, making the hour and a half fly by!

On the way back, in addition to snacks, there were all-you-can-eat cut oranges and pineapples, allowing us to recover the calories we burned swimming while enjoying the beautiful sea, making the cruise itself enjoyable. The baby was happy because he could eat oranges! They mentioned that you might see dolphins during the cruise, but unfortunately, we didn't see any during our time, though it was still plenty of fun.

Also, please note that Japanese is not spoken on-site, and communication is only in English. Moreover, there were no other Japanese people besides our family. However, even with our limited English, the staff responded with smiles and didn't show any displeasure, so I think even with middle school-level English, you can manage just fine. There are Japanese instruction sheets on board for safety briefings, so if you're worried about your English skills, you can feel comfortable participating. The safety instructions included areas where swimming is allowed, prohibitions against diving under the boat, touching the coral reefs, standing on the seabed including the coral reefs, and warnings about not touching sea urchins as they are very dangerous.

One service I appreciated was that there was sunscreen available on the boat for free. Since environmentally friendly sunscreen is necessary to protect the coral reefs, I was wondering if my own sunscreen would be okay, but they had proper sunscreen available that could be used for babies as well! It was mentioned in the instructions to apply it 30 minutes before entering the water.

The boat was a catamaran, which might have less sway, but it still rocked quite a bit, so I think it's better for those who are prone to seasickness to take motion sickness medication. It’s also wise to have bags and wipes for the baby. Since the cruise takes about an hour each way, it might be good to have a change of clothes for the baby, as they might get cold if they stay in wet swimsuits on the way back. We didn't bring any, and I wrapped the baby in a bath towel to keep him warm in the sun on the way back, so it was fine, but it might be better to have a change of clothes. By the way, the only place to change is the restro

1歳11ヶ月の幼児とハワイ島で参加出来るアクティビティを探して参加しました。
せっかくハワイ島に来たからには自然を満喫出来るアクティビティに参加したいですが、
幼児もとなるとなかなか少ないと思います。

こちらのシュノーケリングツアーは幼児も問題無く楽しめました！
大人サイズのシュノーケリング道具のレンタルはもちろん、ベビーサイズの安全ベスト(名前が分からない)や、浮き輪も股付き、股無しで選べて貸してくれます。

水温やベビーの体調を鑑みて、遊ぶ時間を調整すれば楽しく過ごせます。
我が家が遊びに行った時期は水温が少し冷たかったので午後のコースで1時間半のシュノーケリングタイムでしたが、ベビーの体調に合わせて30分位で切り上げました。
(シュノーケリングタイムの最初の10分位は注意事項の説明とシュノーケリングの使い方講座です)

残りの時間は素晴らしい景色を眺めながら、食べ放題のスナックを頂いたり、ベビーにおやつをあげたりしながらのんびり日向ぼっこ。
主人はもう少しシュノーケリングをしたり、飛び込みのすべり台をして楽しんでいました。


水の透明度も、カラフルなお魚達もたくさん見れてハワイ島ならではのシュノーケリングを満喫出来ました！
水中カメラを持って行くと水が綺麗なので、珊瑚礁に群がる可愛い魚たちを撮ることが出来て楽しいです。


すべり台は泳げない私には結構な高さで(船の二階から海に滑り降りる)出来ませんでしたが、主人は楽しかったようです。
なかなか飽きませんが、もしシュノーケリングに飽きたらスリリングなすべり台や飛び込みも出来て1時間半はあっという間です！

帰りの船内ではスナックの他にカットオレンジやパイナップルが食べ放題で、
泳いで消費したカロリーを回復しながら素敵な海を眺め、クルージング自体も楽しかったです。
ベビーもオレンジは食べれるのでご機嫌でした！
クルージング中にいるかに会えるかも？と書いていましたが、私達の時は見れず残念でしたがそれでも十分楽しかったです。


それと現地では日本語は通じず、英語のみで会話します。
しかも私達家族以外の日本人も居ませんでした。
それでもチェックインからつたない単語メインの英語でも、スタッフの方は嫌な顔せずニコニコと対応してくれるので中学生レベルの英語でもなんとかなります。
船内では注意事項の説明は日本語の説明書があるので英語力に不安がある場合も安心して遊べると思います。
注意事項は泳いで良い範囲、
海洋保護地区の為に船の下に潜る事、珊瑚礁に触ること、珊瑚礁を含め海底に立つことを禁止、ウニはとても危険だから触らない事等が書いていました。

サービスで嬉しかったのは、日焼け止めも船にあり無料で使えた事です。
珊瑚礁を白化から守るため環境配慮の日焼け止めが必要で自分が持っている日焼け止めでも大丈夫かな？と思っていたら、ちゃんと日焼け止めが用意してあり、ベビーにも使えました！
水に入る30分前には塗ること、と注意事項に書いていました。

船は双胴船で揺れも少ないのかも知れませんが、それでもだいぶ揺れるので酔いやすい方は酔い止め薬を飲んだ方が良いと思います。
ベビー用には袋と拭くものがあると無難です。
クルージングも片道1時間弱あるので、帰りに濡れた水着のままだとベビーが寒がるかも知れないので着替えもあった方が良いと思います。
我が家は持って行かず、ベビーをバスタオルでぐるぐる巻きにして日向ぼっこさせながら帰ったので大丈夫でしたが、着替えた方が良いかも知れませんね。
ちなみに着替える場所は船内にトイレしかありません。

ハワイ島で幼児も参加出来るアクティビティを探しているならオススメです。

Reviewed by: あみるった

I thought I would only be able to see the dolphins from a distance, but I was able to see them quite closely! I appreciated that the guide positioned himself in places where the dolphins were likely to come. He was also a friendly person.

The dolphins swam quite fast, and I felt like I was swimming more than just leisurely snorkeling. (laughs) My husband and I were used to snorkeling and good swimmers, so we could keep up, but others who participated seemed quite exhausted. Well, it's to be expected since they are wild.

I was satisfied because meeting the dolphins was the main goal, but considering the price, I felt the time was a bit short, so I would rate it minus one star. We probably spent about 45 minutes in the water, and we wrapped up shortly after 10 AM.

I fully understand that we shouldn't have long interactions with wild dolphins, but if there are areas nearby with coral and fish, I think it would be appropriate to include snorkeling there for the price.

もっと遠くからしか見えないと思っていましたが、なかなかの距離でイルカちゃんが見えました！
ガイドさんがイルカちゃんが来そうなところに先回りしてくれるのが有り難かったです。ガイドさんも気さくな方でした。

イルカちゃんは泳ぐのが結構早く、ゆっくりシュノーケリングというよりは随分水泳させられた気はします。笑
私達夫婦はシュノーケリングに慣れていたのと、泳ぐのも得意だったのでついていけましたが、一緒に参加されていた方は相当疲労困憊していました。。
野生なので、仕方ないですけどね。。

イルカちゃんに会うのが目的だったので満足していますが、お値段を考えると時間が短かったかな〜と思いマイナス1です。たぶん潜ったのは45分くらいかな？午前10時すぎには解散となりました。

野生イルカに長い時間接触すべきではないというのは重々理解していますが、近隣にサンゴやお魚がいるようなところがあれば、そこでのシュノーケリングもできると、お値段に相応かなと思いました。

We moved to the meeting point by rental car. There was no parking, so we had to park on the street. We were the only Japanese people there, and there seemed to be many elderly white people. I had heard there were two snorkeling points, but there was only one at Captain Cook, which was a bit disappointing. The staff were energetic and cheerful, and since the explanations were only in English, I couldn't understand anything, but they were very kind and friendly, which made me feel completely at ease. I didn't have high expectations for the meal since it was on the boat (sorry), but it turned out to be very delicious. The hamburgers had unlimited toppings, so I piled on as much as I wanted without hesitation. There were drinks available, but they were just okay. On the way back, we encountered a family of whales, and they kindly stopped the boat so we could observe them closely.

レンタカーで集合場所まで移動。駐車場がないので路駐になりました。日本人は私達だけ。白人のお年寄りが多い印象でした。２か所と聞いていたシュノーケルポイントはキャプテンクック１か所だけで、少し物足りなかったです。スタッフさんは元気で明るく、説明は英語だけでしたから全く理解はできませんでしたがとても優しくフレンドリーで感じが良くて、不安になることは一つもありませんでした。食事は船上ということもあり期待をしていなかったのですが(ごめんなさい)、これがとても美味しかった。ハンバーガーは自分で好きなだけトッピングできたので遠慮なくたくさん乗せました。飲み物はありますがいまいち。帰りにクジラの家族に遭遇し、わざわざ船を止めてくれたのでゆっくり見学できました。

I was so excited for my first tour swimming with dolphins! However, I’m not a great swimmer and hadn’t swum in about ten years, so I was a bit nervous wondering if I would be okay. But there was absolutely no problem at all.

Lucky for us, a large pod of dolphins came by multiple times, and I lost count of how many dives we did. Interestingly, no other boats were out that day, so it felt like we had Aloha Tours all to ourselves.

When we got really close to the dolphins, they didn’t seem to avoid us at all and showed such curious expressions; they were so cute! I was moved by the sight of dolphins playing with each other, a mother and her baby swimming together, their adorable sounds, and the beautiful bubbles created by their breathing sparkling through the curtain of light. It was a wonderful experience to be in such a beautiful, mysterious world, and the time spent with them became a cherished memory.

Also, Daisuke's bubble ring diving performance was amazing; he looked just like a dolphin! Lei was always cracking jokes, which kept the atmosphere lively and made it so much fun! Thank you so much for allowing us to meet the dolphins!!

初めてイルカと一緒に泳ぐツアーにワクワク！しかし泳ぎは得意じゃないし、もう１０年位は泳いでいなかったので（いきなり大丈夫か？）とドキドキでしたが全く問題なかったです。
ラッキーなことに何度もイルカの大群がやって来て何度ダイブしたか分からなくなる程でした。またこの日は何故か他の船が一隻も出港しておらず、アロハツアーズ貸切状態でした。

イルカ達と大接近した時も私達を避ける様子もなく、興味ありげな表情を見せてとても可愛かったです。イルカ同士がじゃれ合っている様子や親子で泳ぐ姿、可愛い鳴き声、そしてイルカの呼吸でできた美しい泡が、光のカーテンの中をキラキラと流れていく光景に感動しました。美しい神秘の世界にお邪魔させて頂き、共に過ごせた一時が幸せでとても良い思い出になりました。

It takes about 50 minutes by car from the hotel to the office, and then another 5 minutes by car to the harbor, so it was a bit nerve-wracking for us as it was our first time driving a rental car on the Big Island. The staff were all friendly, but there was no explanation after renting the GoPro, and we almost missed receiving our cards before disembarking. However, we enjoyed the two snorkeling sessions and the encounter with dolphins during sailing.

ホテルから車で50分程かかる事務所からハーバーまで更に車で5分かかるので、初めてハワイ島でレンタカーを運転する私達にはちょっと時間的にハラハラな集合でした。
スタッフの皆さんは気さくな方たちばかりでしたが、GoProをレンタルした後の説明がなく危うくカードを受け取れず下船するところでした。
でも2回のシュノーケルやセーリング中のイルカとの出会いは楽しめました。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー　滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く！＜午前・午後／英語ガイド／食事付＞by フェアウィンド号

Family-friendly snorkeling 子連れシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: やまっこ

I participated with my 4.5-year-old child, and they provided us with kids' masks and boards with viewing windows, which allowed my daughter to enjoy herself.

There was a decent variety and number of fish, and although the visibility was okay, I appreciated that we weren't trying to catch fish with sausages. The slide and diving board required just the right amount of courage, which was great. The restrooms on the boat were also clean.

The speed of speaking in English was fast, but they provided important information on a paper written in Japanese, so I felt there were no issues at all. (My language skills are at a level where I can manage basic conversations in English.)

We received plenty of snacks and fruits, the timing was just right, and dolphins swam alongside us on the way back, so I think the affordable afternoon plan was a good choice.

4歳半の子どもと参加しましたが、キッズ用マスクや、覗き窓つきボードを貸していただき、娘も楽しむことができました。

そこそこの種類と数の魚、透明度でしたが、ソーセージで魚集めるようなこともしていなかったので、好感がもてました。
滑り台や飛び込み台は、ほどよい勇気が必要なレベルで良かったです。
船内のトイレも清潔でした。

英語を喋るスピードは早いですが、重要事項は日本語で書いた紙を渡してくれますので、全く問題ないと感じました。(私の語学力は、軽く英会話ができる程度です)

スナックやフルーツも沢山頂け、時間も適当、イルカも帰りに並走してくれたので、値段が安い午後プランで良かったかなと思います。

Swimming alongside dolphins!! An emotional experience. イルカと並泳!!感動体験

Reviewed by: ポニョ

In the morning, a handsome guide took us to a spot where dolphins gather. From the boat, we could see the dolphins jumping, and the excitement was high. Once we entered the water, guided by the handsome guide, we were able to swim right next to the dolphins, which was an incredible experience! The dolphins came back multiple times, so we swam until we were exhausted. Advanced swimmers were diving down to take photos.

There were many boats on the water, but once you’re in the sea, the crowd isn’t too bothersome. There are no shower facilities, but if you go to the boat's washing area, you can rinse off the seawater along with the boat (laughs). There’s a spacious restroom, so you wear your swimsuit on the way there and change back in the restroom on the way back. If you’re prone to motion sickness, it’s best to take some medication in advance, as the boat can be quite rocky, and some people seemed to struggle with it.

午前中にイルカが集まるスポットに、イケメンガイド君が連れて行ってくれます。
ボートの上からもジャンプするイルカたちが見えて、盛り上がりは上々です。
海に入ると、イケメンガイド君の誘導で、こんなに近くにというくらい真横をキープ。水面近くを一緒に泳ぎ、感動!!! しかもイルカは何度もやってくるので、こちらも体力限界まで泳ぎました。上級者の方々は潜って写真を撮っていました。
海上には多くのボートが集まっていましたが、海に入ってしまえば人の多さはさほど気になりません。
シャワー設備はありませんが、ボートの洗い場へ同行すれば、ボートと一緒に海水を落とすことはできます(笑)　広いトイレがあるので、往きは水着着用、帰りはトイレで着替えます。
車酔いする方は、予め酔い止めを飲んだほうがよいです。ボートが結構揺れるので、かなり辛そうな方がいました。

I am very satisfied. The sea turtles and dolphins were perfect! 大満足です。ウミガメもイルカもバッチリ！

Reviewed by: Tera

Before departing the port, we had a great start by seeing a large sea turtle up close. As we left the port and the guide began explaining the points where we could see dolphins, we encountered a pod of dolphins in less than a minute. After that, we continued to watch them in the water. The guide's explanations were clear and helpful. It was said that we were quite lucky this time. I took motion sickness medication to avoid getting seasick, and I was fully prepared, but there was no time to feel sick. However, I was quite exhausted afterward. Since they mentioned that seeing wild dolphins can depend on luck, it’s not guaranteed that every trip will be as enjoyable as this one, but I was very satisfied.

出港して港を出る前に大きなウミガメを間近で見れて幸先の良いスタート。港を出て、これからイルカのみれるポイントに・・と説明が始まった途端にイルカの群れに遭遇、１分もかかってなかったです。それから、ずっと海の中でみ続けてました。ガイドさんの説明もわかりやすくて良かったです。今回はかなり運が良かったとの事です。船酔いしない様に酔い止めの薬も飲んでバッチリ準備したのに、酔う暇もありませんでした。ただ、終わってからどっと疲れが。野生のイルカなので、運、不運があるとの事でしたので、いつも今回の様に楽しめるとは限らないそうですが、大変満足しました。

素晴らしい！！ Amazing !!

Reviewed by: ちぃ〜

I wanted to swim with dolphins, so I participated with my husband. Since my husband, who is Canadian, doesn't speak much Japanese, I signed up for a tour with a Japanese guide. Daisuke-san was very helpful as he also provided explanations in English. Rei-kun and Daisuke-san worked perfectly together, and we were able to encounter dolphins right away in a location close to the marina, seeing many dolphins, which made us very satisfied. I regret not being able to capture the experience on my smartphone, and I wish I had booked a GoPro instead. It was a tour I would love to join again. Thank you very much!

イルカと泳ぎたいねぇという事で主人と一緒に参加させて頂きました。
日本語があまり話せないカナダ人の主人に日本語ガイドで申し込んだのですが、ダイスケさんが英語での説明もしてくださり非常に助かりました。
レイくん、ダイスケさんの連携がバッチリで、マリーナから近い場所で、イルカと直ぐに遭遇できたうえに沢山のイルカを見れて大満足です。
せっかくベストな状態を提供して頂いてイルカが見れたのにスマホに残せてない為、Goプロを予約しておけば良かったとかなり後悔してます。また、参加したいと思ったツアーでした。ありがとうございました。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾　シュノーケリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

Snorkeling is... シュノーケリングが…

Reviewed by: たぬき

The staff, both at the reception and on the boat, were very friendly to us, even though we didn't understand much English. Unfortunately, at both important snorkeling points, there were only a few fish, which was disappointing. I wonder if it was due to the season or some timing issue? It was quite disappointing.

スタッフの皆さんは、受付の方も船の方も英語があまりわからない私達にとてもフレンドリーに対応してくれました。
重要なシュノーケルポイントの二ヶ所とも、チラホラと魚がいるぐらいで残念な感じでした。
時期的なものなのか？何かのタイミング的なものなのか？ガッカリでした。
