I participated with my daughter. It was both of our first time snorkeling, but our guide, Kamio, kindly taught us how to put on the equipment, breathing techniques, and how to use the fins. He even held my hand as I was nervous about swimming, which allowed us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. We saw many beautiful fish; it felt like a dream, as if we were in an aquarium. We also got to see a honu (sea turtle). I am truly grateful to Kamio for his thoughtful care that eased our worries. I have visited Hawaii many times, but this experience was unlike any other. I highly recommend it.
娘と二人で参加。二人ともシュノーケルは初めてでしたが、ガイドのカミオさんが丁寧に器具の装着から呼吸法、ひれの使い方など教えてくださり、泳ぎも不安だった私の手をひいて下さったので安心して楽しむことができました。きれいな魚の数々、水族館の中にいるような夢のような時間でした。ホヌにも会えました。不安のないよう気配りしてくださりカミオさんには心から感謝しています。ハワイは何度も訪れていますが、今までにない感動をおぼえました。おすすめです。

The children had their first experience with snorkeling, and thanks to Chieko and Mr. Dan's guidance, they were able to relax and swim with the beautiful fish in the sea. In the end, as expected from expert guides, we were able to encounter a sea turtle, which left us very satisfied. I forgot my mobile phone on the tour bus, but thank you for kindly delivering it to the hotel. I would like to participate again next time to experience more wonderful moments.
子供たちはシュノーケリング初体験でしたが、チエコさんとダン先生の言うとりにリラックスして綺麗な海で魚たちと泳ぐことが出来ました。最後にはさすが達人ガイド、海カメに出会うことができて大満足できました。ツアーバスの中に携帯電話を忘れてしまいましたが、親切にホテルまで届けて頂きありがとうございました。次回もまた感動を頂きに参加したいです。

The weather was nice, but as I researched beforehand, the sandbar had water up to my waist. If you don't like what you find in your research, it's better not to participate. The snorkeling at the coral reef was great. You can't get there without a boat. On the day, there were currents, and the guide said, "Think of it as training and do your best," which was funny. I went into the sea with a water camera and holding my child. Although I was wearing a life jacket, I felt like I was going to be overwhelmed by my child clinging to me. It became a great memory. The guide was also very nice and I recommend it. I will repeat this experience.
天気は良かったですがサンドバーは事前に調べた通りで腰まで水がありました。
事前に調べて気に入らない方は参加しない方が良いですね。
サンゴ礁でのスノーケリングが良かったです。船でなければこれません。
当日は海流がありガイドさんが”特訓だと思ってがんばってください”とw。
水中カメラと子供を抱えて海へ。救命胴衣を着けていますが、
私にしがみつき登り上がる子供に殺されると思いましたw。いい思い出になりました。
ガイドさんも感じが良くおすすめです。リピートします。

At first, I thought I wouldn't be able to see them, but the guide worked really hard to find them, and I was finally able to see a sea turtle up close! Other tour guides said there were no sea turtles today, so I was half resigned to that, but we were able to see one, and both my mother and I were thrilled! Thank you very much! The guide teaches you how to snorkel properly, so I recommend this tour for beginners as well!
最初は見られないかと思いましたが、ガイドの方が一生懸命探してくださって、念願のウミガメを間近で見ることができました!他のツアーのガイドの方は今日はウミガメはいないねと言っていたので、半分諦めていましたが、見ることができて、母も私も大興奮でした!ありがとうございました!しっかりシュノーケルの方法を教えてくださるので、初心者の方にもオススメのツアーです!

It was my first time at the sandbar! Depending on the season, I think, but I couldn't stand in the middle of the ocean as I had imagined... I was submerged up to my waist, and it was quite cold. However, the sea was very beautiful, and I was able to see turtles up close, and the snacks were delicious and satisfying! I would like to try again next time! (*^ω^*)
初めてのサンドバーでした!時季にもよると思うんですが、想像していたような海の真ん中に立てることはなかったです…。腰くらいまで浸る状態で、結構寒かったです。でも、海はとっても綺麗でしたし、カメも近くで見ることができましたし、軽食も美味しく満足できました!次回再チャレンジしたいと思います(*^ω^*)

The total activity time was short. Additionally, the snorkeling felt less free, and because there were many participants, we had to swim in a line in a designated area. We received annoying comments like "keep your distance from the person in front" and "swim faster," which made it frustrating. The sandbar itself was a valuable experience, but overall, it didn't leave a lasting impression. I won't be doing this again.
トータルのアクティビティ時間は短い。また、シュノーケリングは、自由な感じか少なく、参加者も多いせいか、決まったエリアを列で泳がなければならず、前の人と距離を開けろだの、早く泳げだの、どうにもならない煽りをうける。サンドバー自体は貴重な体験だったが、総じて印象には残っていない。2度目はない。

I was initially hesitant to join this tour because I can't swim at all and I'm nearsighted, so I can't see anything without my glasses. However, I participated at the request of my companion. When I asked in advance if it would be okay, I received a response from a Japanese guide named Takako, who assured me that floatation devices and nearsighted snorkeling gear would be provided, so it would be fine. On the day of the tour, she kindly instructed us on how to use the floatation devices on the water, and I was able to enjoy snorkeling somehow. Although we only snorkeled at Molokini due to high waves that day and didn't see many fish or turtles, the beautiful, clear blue sea was stunning. Thank you very much.
私は全く泳げない上に、近視でメガネなしでは何も見えないので、このツアーの参加に前向きではありませんでしたが、連れの希望で参加しました。事前に大丈夫か聞いたところ、タカコさんという日本人ガイドの方が、浮き具や近視のスノーケルが用意されているので大丈夫とご返答いただき、当日も、浮き具の使い方などを海上で丁寧に指導していただき、何とかスノーケリングを楽しむことができました。当日は波が高いとのことでモロキニ一箇所だけのスノーケリングでしたが、魚や亀などはあまり見れませんでしたが、美しい、透明度の高い青い海でした。ありがとうございました。

This is not just about the tour content; it's a bigger issue. I used your service in August, and although I made a proper reservation for four people from Japan, only two reservations were actually confirmed, and the remaining two ended up being walk-ins on the day of the tour. Due to the pricing situation, I emailed Veltra after returning home, but I have been ignored regarding this matter. I will not be using this company in the future.
ツアー内容どうこうの話ではなく、それ以前の問題です。8月にお世話になったのですが、日本からきちんと4名の予約をしていったのに、実際予約が2名分しかとれていなく残りの2名は当日予約になってしまいました。料金の兼ね合いもありveltraさんに帰国後メールを入れましたがそれに関しては無視されています。今後この会社を使うことはありません。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour.
However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused during your trip.
As mentioned in a separate email, your reservation was made for four people in our system, but it seems that the operating company mistakenly secured seats for only two people. Our staff noticed on the day of the tour that your reservation was for four people and that you had paid for it, and they canceled the additional two seats on the spot.
It is truly regrettable that what should have been a wonderful memory from the snorkeling cruise turned into a bitter experience due to our reservation management error. We also apologize for the delayed response to your review. We have taken strict measures to ensure that the operating company does not cause any inconvenience to customers due to such reservation errors in the future.
We take your feedback seriously and, together with the operating company, will strive to improve our services further. Thank you very much for your valuable feedback amidst your busy schedule.

This was my fifth time in Hawaii, but my first experience snorkeling in West Oahu. I really felt lucky to be able to join this tour, as I wanted to visit Yokohama Bay. It had been a while since I swam, so I was a bit worried and hesitantly signed up for snorkeling, but after listening to the thorough explanations, we swam from the beach, which made it completely enjoyable without any anxiety. While listening to various explanations from the knowledgeable Akima, we toured power spots, and the wonderful scenery of the natural and quiet West Oahu, different from Waikiki and North Shore, was truly moving. We took an astonishing number of photos, and I feel like my husband and I will have a lot to talk about when we return home. I highly recommend this tour!
今回は5回目のハワイでしたが、始めての西オワフでシュノーケリングも初体験。ヨコハマベイに行ってみたいと思い、このツアーに参加できたことは本当にラッキーでした。泳ぎが久しぶりで心配でもあり恐る恐る申し込みしたシュノーケリングでしたが、しっかりと説明を聞いてから海岸から泳いでいくものでしたので、全く不安なく楽しめました。知識豊富なあきまさんから色々な説明を聞きながらパワースポットを巡ったり、ワイキキやノースショア、東オワフとはまた違った、自然のままの静かな西オワフの素晴らしい景色は感動ものです。写真もびっくりするくらいの枚数を撮っていただいて、帰国してからも主人と思い出話しに花が咲きそうです。本当にお勧めのツアーです!
Thank you for your review.
Yes, it is often said that West Oahu doesn't feel like "Oahu." There is an image of Oahu being synonymous with Waikiki and tourists. Since it is the least developed town, I believe you were able to enjoy the true Hawaii and its nature.
If you have the opportunity, please join us again.
Aloha,
Akima
レビューありがとうございます。
そうですね、西オアフは”オアフ島”だと思えないとよく言われます。オアフ=ワイキキ、観光客というイメージがあるのでしょう。一番開発されていない町ですので、本当のハワイと自然をお楽しみいただけたかと思います。
また機会がありましたら、ご参加ください。

It took about 30 minutes by rubber boat to reach the point. Two manta rays gracefully appeared. They came very close and danced around, which was a bit surprising. This manta ray tour seemed to be a side tour organized by a main operator. The day before the tour, I received a request to change to a later time because the original tour was canceled for boat inspection and repairs. Initially, I considered canceling my participation in the tour, but it went ahead as scheduled. Upon reflection, I think it wasn't due to the boat inspection and repairs, but rather that they hadn't reached the minimum number of participants. Additionally, even after the meeting time had passed, the tour operator did not arrive, making it feel like a disorganized company.
ゴムボートで片道約30分でポイントに到着。2枚のマンタが優雅に現れてくれました。もうすれすれまで来て舞ってくれてちょっとびびりました。このマンタのツアーも元締めみたいのがいてそのおこぼれツアーのようでした。ツアーの前日に、船の点検修理のためその時間のがキャンセルになり遅い時間のに変更依頼を受けました。当初は、ツアー参加のキャンセルを考えましたが、ツアーは予定どおりに催行されました。よくよく考えると、船の点検修理のためではなく、最少催行人数に達していなかったのだと思いました。また集合時間を過ぎても催行社は来ず、でたらめな会社のように感じました。

Thank you very much, Yumi, for taking the time to write a review. August is a peak season for many tour companies, and the date you participated, August 15, was also during this busy period. There are only two boat ramps in Keauhou Bay, and we share these ramps with other companies. Everyone usually returns to the boat ramp around noon, so sometimes there can be a wait of about 30 minutes. To avoid keeping you and the other guests waiting, I believe the boat captain who was in charge of your tour returned to Keauhou Bay a bit earlier. I apologize if this caused any disappointment. I'm glad to hear that you were able to swim with the dolphins. It is an honor to hear you say, "I'm glad I participated."
ゆみーさん わざわざお時間を割いてレビューを書いていただき、誠にありがとうございます。8月はどこのツアー会社さんにとてもハイシーズンで、ゆみーさんが参加してくださいました8/15もそのハイシーズンの季節でありました。ケアウホウ湾にはボートランプが二つのみで、そのランプを他社と弊社が共有しております。皆さん12時頃にボートランプに戻ってきますので、時には30分ほど待つこともあります。そこでゆみーさんたちお客様を待たせてしまっては申し訳ないので、ゆみーさんのツアーを担当させていただきましたボートキャプテンが少し早めにケアウホウ湾に戻ってきたのだと思います。残念な思いをさせてしまったとしたら、申し訳ありませんでした。イルカと一緒に泳げたとのこと。それは良かったです。「参加してよかったです」と言っていただき、光栄です。

It felt like a manta ray! However, my wife was very anxious, saying, "Entering the night sea and having a manta ray approach with its mouth wide open..." After talking with her about various things, she gathered her courage and finally participated!
Once we actually joined, her impression changed completely, and she was overjoyed, saying, "The manta ray is so cute, I'm so glad!" Our guide, Tori-chan, was wonderful! She was so energetic and taught us various things about manta rays, including their ecology, habits, and names, in a storytelling format. Most importantly, she explained, "Manta rays are very friendly and cute!" which eased our preconceived notions. The manta rays really came close to us repeatedly. My wife even got touched by one coming from the other side—how lucky! Thank you, Tori-chan! I definitely want to participate again.

What a wonderful guided tour. Staff so helpful and fun to hang with. Perfect spot to just snorkel and watch fish and coral reef below. Enough time for snorkeling allowed. Would recommend to anyone.

Aloha!! Turuturu,
Thank you for participating in the Dolphin Middle School program. We are all very happy that you were able to experience something that is not easily found in Japan. When you come to the Big Island, we also have tours like Manta University, so we look forward to your next visit.
Mahalo!!
