Unfortunately...!! 残念ながら、、、！！

Reviewed by: アイボ

I participated in a spiritual tour.

After about an hour's drive from Waikiki, we arrived at the dock where we were each given a snorkeling set and a life jacket.

From there, we transferred to a boat that could hold about a dozen people, but when I went, it was full, and my husband was instructed to sit on the edge of the boat (laughs).

And off we went! The Hawaiian breeze felt wonderful, and I was in the mood of "Hawaii is the best~☆".

We sped to the spot where dolphins had appeared the day before, but there were no dolphins there... After moving around for a while without seeing any dolphins, we decided to look for sea turtles first and went snorkeling.

There were so many sea turtles! We were able to see about three at once, and it was amazing.

After that, we searched for dolphins again, but no matter where we went, we couldn't find any (tears).

Since we didn't see any dolphins today, we unfortunately had to return to the dock...

I was really disappointed. I wanted to swim with the dolphins.

When we were leaving, a staff member said, "I'm sorry you couldn't see any dolphins," but since they are living creatures, it can't be helped.

This became the theme for my next trip to Hawaii.

As everyone says, it gets quite cold after being in the water and then getting back on the boat, so I think it would be good to bring something like a windbreaker.

That concludes my experience of not seeing the dolphins.

スピリチュアルツアーに参加しました。

ワイキキから車で1時間ほどしたところから船着場に到着すると、それぞれにシュノーケリングセットとライフジャケットを配られます。

そこから１０数名程度乗れるボートに乗り換えますが、
私が行ったときは満員で、旦那はボートのヘリに座るように指示されていました（笑

そこから出発です！ハワイの風が心地よくて、「ハワイ最高~☆」ってな気分です。

昨日イルカが現れたというポイントまで船を走らせますが、そこにはイルカおらず。。
しばらくあっちへこっちへ移動してもイルカがいなかったので、先に海がめを見ようということになり、シュノーケリングをしました。

海がめいっぱいいました。３匹くらいいっぺんに見ることができて、感激でした。

そこからまたイルカを探すのですが、行けど行けどイルカが見つからず（涙

今日はイルカは見られなかったとのことで、残念ながら船着場に戻ることになりました。。

本当に残念です。私もイルカと泳ぎたかったー。

帰るときにスタッフの人に「イルカに会えなくてごめんね」と言われましたが、生き物なので致し方ないですね。

次のハワイのテーマになりました。


皆さんが言うように、水につかった後に船に乗るとかなり寒いので、ウィンドブレーカーみたいなのを持っていくとよいなと思いました。


以上、見れなかった場合の体験談でした。

I had a great time.
There were large groups of dolphins swimming so close that I felt I could touch them.
The ocean was incredibly beautiful, unlike anything I've ever seen before, and I was amazed.
There were also many colorful fish, which was mystical.
I felt very relaxed.
At first, I was quite anxious since it was my first time doing something like this, but the staff were all friendly and answered any questions I had, which made me feel at ease.
It was a very enjoyable day, and I would love to go again whenever I have the time!

Lots of fun!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I had never been snorkeling before and didn't know what to expect, but everything was easy and fun! To my great relief they had prescription masks so I could actually see the gorgeous fish and coral underwater. It was wonderful, with plenty of time to enjoy it. The motor raft ride to the dive site was very exciting and very fast--bring a hat but make sure it ties onto your head--with stops along the way to look at caves, lava tubes, etc. Lots of playful dolphins surrounded the raft at one point. Highly recommended!

Just one word: wonderful! すばらしいの一言☆

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Recently, my wife and I participated in a dolphin watching tour. We've been on several tours before, but this one was exceptional. First of all, it was a small group (only nine people), and the staff were very kind.

We were lucky that day; within about 3 to 4 minutes of boarding the boat, we encountered dolphins! There were no other tour groups around, and we got to enjoy the sight of 30 to 40 dolphins all to ourselves! The dolphins were swimming in circles in the same area, allowing us to get close multiple times. It was truly moving.

After the dolphin snorkeling, I thought that was the end, but we changed locations for snorkeling with turtles. This was also an incredible experience. Even if you don't get to see dolphins, I believe it's still worth it. Since it's a nature-based tour, there's no guarantee of seeing dolphins, but I recommend trusting your luck and giving it a try.

The sea might be a bit cold, so I suggest wearing a rash guard and bringing a jacket that you don't mind getting wet for the boat ride.

先日、嫁と二人で参加。今までいくつかイルカウォッチングツアーに参加して来ましたが、別格でした。まず少人数制で（今回は９名）スタッフがとても親切。
この日は運が良かったのか、日頃の行いがいいからか、船に乗って約３~４分ですぐにイルカと遭遇！まわりに他のツアーの人もいなくて、３０~４０頭のイルカを９名で独占！イルカ達は同じ当りをぐるぐる回って泳いでいて、何度も接近することが出来ました。感動です。
また、イルカとのシュノーケンリングが終わり、おしまいかなと思ったら、ポイントを変えて亀とのシュノーケリング。
こちらでも又感動。もしイルカにあえなくても十分価値があると思います。自然相手のツアーなのでイルカと合えるかどうかは、100％ではないと思うけど、日頃の行いを信じ是非参加してみては･･･お薦めです。
若干海が冷たいかもしれないので、ラッシュなど着て、船で羽織れるパーカーなど濡れても良いものを持っていくことをお薦めします。

So many memories! So many dolphins!! 思い出いっぱい！イルカさんいっぱい！！

Reviewed by: ALOHAのOHANA

The dolphin tour with Dolphin Hawaii is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend it!!

I have participated in dolphin tours with other companies multiple times, but this was the first time I was able to swim so leisurely with the dolphins. Since it’s a small group, we were able to take our time. Thanks to that, I could swim among the pod of dolphins and felt like I was included with them. It was truly moving—an unforgettable memory for a lifetime. Moreover, I was so happy to hear the dolphins' chatter with my own ears.

Also, the staff member, Yuriko, is wonderful and can communicate with the dolphins, which might be why we encountered so many of them.

The captain and staff are attentive, providing an excellent sense of privacy and safety. Everyone is kind, and their Japanese is great, making our conversations very enjoyable.

Oh, and the snorkeling gear and the boat were clean and well-maintained.

By the way, I usually get seasick, but I didn’t feel sick at all! The boat rides like it's jumping over the waves, making it feel like an attraction, which was so much fun.

They also provided a bag with snacks like donuts, treats, and water at the beginning, so it was nice to eat whenever I wanted without worrying.

Of course, the tour is not just about swimming with dolphins; you also get to experience honu (turtles), tropical fish, crystal-clear waters, majestic mountains, and the warmth of the locals. I truly recommend it!

I definitely want to participate again.

Thank you so much, Yuriko!!!

もう、イルカハワイさんのツアーは最高です！
絶対オススメです！！

他社のイルカツアーに何度も参加しておりますが、こんなにもイルカさんとゆっくり泳げたのは初めてでした。
少人数制なので、時間をゆっくりとって頂けました。
おかげさまで、イルカさんの群れの中で一緒に泳ぐことができ、仲間に入れてもらえた感じを味わうことができました。
もう感動の一言です。一生の思い出です。
しかも、イルカさんのおしゃべりを自分の耳で聞くことができ、とても幸せでした。
また、スタッフのYURIKOさんはイルカさんとコミュニケーションがとれる素敵な方なので、たくさんのイルカさんに出逢うことができたのかもしれません。

船長さんやスタッフさんの目が行き届いていて、プライベート感・安心感は抜群です。
みなさん親切だし、日本語も上手で会話もとっても楽しませて頂きました。

あっ、シュノーケリングの道具やボートなども綺麗で、清潔感がありましたよ。

そうそう、船酔いする私ですが、全然酔いませんでした！
ボートが波の上をジャンプするように走るので、アトラクションのようでとっても楽しかったです。

軽食はドーナッツやお菓子、お水などセットされたバッグを最初に渡して下さるので、気にせず好きなときに食べられるのもよかったです。

もちろん、イルカさんと泳ぐ以外にもホヌ（亀さん）やトロピカルなお魚さん、透明度の高い海、雄大な山々、ロコの温かさに触れることができるツアーで、本当にオススメです！

また、ぜひ参加したいと思います。

YURIKOさん、本当にありがとうーーーーーーーーー！！！

In particular, the staff's hospitality made me feel comfortable and doubled the fun. I was truly moved to encounter so many dolphins and swim right next to them. I was also able to swim close to a sea turtle, which was cuter than I expected, and I completely fell in love with sea turtles. It was so adorable when it popped its head out of the water to breathe. I definitely want to participate again!

今回は一人での参加でしたが、スタッフを始めツアー参加者皆さん、とてもフレンドリーで本当に楽しかったです。
特にスタッフのホスピタリティあふれる対応は居心地がよく、楽しさも倍増でした。たくさんのイルカと出会え、すぐ横を泳ぐことができて本当に感動しました。ウミガメも至近距離で泳ぐことができ、思ったよりもかわいく、すっかりウミガメが好きになりました。海面に息継ぎのためにプハッと顔を出すのがとってもかわいかったです。また是非参加したいと思います！

It was a dream-like experience! 夢の様な時間でした！

Reviewed by: aloalo

If you want to swim slowly with dolphins, this is definitely the place to go!! I have participated in many other companies' wild dolphin swimming tours, but this is the first time I was able to swim leisurely with dolphins to my heart's content☆ When I was among the pod of dolphins, it truly felt like a dream. Even when the dolphins swam away, we didn’t chase them; instead, we waited for them to come back♪ The dolphins came back to us multiple times. That was probably thanks to our guide, Yuriko. Yuriko is such a fascinating person. She swims with the dolphins as if she is having a conversation with them, and it seems the dolphins enjoy swimming with her too. The other staff members were marine biologists, so they were very knowledgeable about marine life. And their Japanese was excellent! They made our conversations enjoyable.

And of course, it’s not just about the dolphins. They also take you to the Dragon Palace. Initially, we went to the waters of Makaha, but the day we went, the waves were high and the visibility wasn’t great. So, they changed the destination. They said there weren’t many waves near the power plant, so we headed there instead. As promised, it was a beautiful spot where we could see plenty of fish and even swim with turtles. It was nice that they adjusted to the situation like that.

On the way back, we encountered another pod of dolphins. This time, we leisurely watched the dolphins from the boat. The dolphins showcased their signature jumps.

It was truly a fulfilling experience.

Lastly, I usually get seasick, but I was fine on this boat! It was very fast and felt like gliding over the waves. It was so much fun, like being on an amusement ride!

イルカとゆっくり泳ぎたいのなら、断然ココです！！
今まで何度も他社の野生のイルカと泳ぐツアーに参加しましたが、あんなにもゆっくり思う存分イルカと一緒に泳いだのはココがはじめてです☆
イルカの群れの中にいるときは、本当に夢の様な時間でした。
イルカが行ってしまっても無理に追いかけたりせず、またイルカが帰ってくるのを待っています♪イルカ達は何度も私達の元に来てくれました。
それはきっとガイドのＹｕｒｉｋｏさんがいたからじゃないかな。Ｙｕｒｉｋｏさんはとっても不思議な人。
まるでイルカと会話しているように楽しそうにイルカ達と一緒に泳ぎます。イルカ達もＹｕｒｉｋｏさんと一緒に泳ぐのが楽しいのでしょうね。
他のスタッフさんも海洋学者ということで、とっても海の生物に詳しかったです。そして日本語がとってもお上手！会話でも楽しませてくれました。
そして、もちろんイルカだけではありません。竜宮城へも連れて行ってくれます。はじめはマカハの海へ行ったのですが、私達が行った日は波が高く、透明度があまり良くありませんでした。そしたら、行き先変更。発電所近くは波があまりないということで、そちらの方へ行きました。話の通り、とっても綺麗な場所で、お魚もたくさん見れましたし、カメさんとも一緒に泳ぐことができました。
こんな風に状況に合わせて対応してくれるところも嬉しいですね。
帰りには、またイルカの群れに遭遇。今度はボートの上からのんびりイルカを眺めました。お得意のジャンプをたくさん披露してくれたイルカ。

本当に心満たされた時間でした。

最後に、私はいつも船酔いしてしまうのですが、こちらのボートは大丈夫でしたよ！とっても早くて波の上を滑る感じ。アトラクションに乗っているみたいでとっても楽しかったです！

Amazing!! I participated in the first tour!! 最高！！第一号ツアー参加しちゃいました！！

Reviewed by: NAIA

Last year during my trip to Hawaii, I did a dolphin swim with a different tour. That experience was so wonderful that I wanted to do it again this year, so I searched for a tour and found this incredibly affordable one, which I decided to join. Honestly, I was worried about the quality compared to the previous tour since it was much cheaper, but... those worries were completely unnecessary (laughs). On the contrary, it was so much better than the previous tour!! Anyway, the time spent swimming with the dolphins was long!! As a huge dolphin lover, this was the most delightful aspect for me.

Waianae, located at the western tip of Oahu, is about an hour's drive from Waikiki and is a truly quiet and beautiful place with untouched nature and few tourists. Along the way, we were shown some small sightseeing spots, so it wasn't boring at all. Moreover, the hotel pickup time was about an hour later than the previous tour, making the morning much easier. But the content of the tour was more fulfilling than the previous one. The warm hospitality from the local staff, including our tour guide Yuriko, who speaks Japanese well, was truly healing. There was also a professional photographer who took pictures during the tour, and we could buy those photos later, making it perfect for creating memories.

Maybe it was a lucky day, but we encountered a pod of over 100 dolphins, and there were dolphins everywhere we looked!! I was so excited, it was overwhelming!! Dolphins were jumping all around!! There were also many baby dolphins swimming closely with their mothers, which was incredibly cute!! I couldn't get enough!! They also took us to a sea turtle spot, and I was able to touch a turtle for the first time. And it happened twice!! Furthermore, on the way back to the harbor, we encountered a whale that should have already returned to Alaska!! It was truly an exciting tour. According to the staff, they are planning one-day and one-week tours, so I'm really looking forward to participating again next time. For a first tour, it was unbelievably wonderful. I have no intention of trying other tours in the future!! I want to join this tour again next year. I'm really grateful to all the staff who warmly welcomed me, a solo participant who was feeling anxious!! Thank you very much!! Since it's a special occasion, I'll attach a photo of the mother and baby dolphins from that time. They're just too cute!

　去年のハワイ旅行の時に、別のツアーですがドルフィンスイムをしました。その体験が素晴らしかったので、今年もやりたくてツアーを探したところ、とってもお値打ちなこのツアーを見つけて参加を決めました。正直、以前のツアーに比べてかなりお値打ちのため、どんな内容なのかを心配をしていましたが・・・その心配はまったく無駄なものでした（笑）。それどころか、以前参加したツアーとは比べ物にならないくらい素晴らしいものでした！！とにかく、イルカと一緒に泳げる時間が長い！！大のイルカ好きの私にとっては何よりも嬉しいことです。ワイキキから車で一時間、手付かずの大自然が広がるオアフ島の西の果てのワイアナエという場所は、観光客も少なく本当に静かで美しい場所です。道中もちょっとした観光スポットを教えてもらえたりするので、退屈しません。しかもホテルのピックアップの時間が以前のツアーと比べて一時間ほど遅いのですごく朝が楽です。でも内容は以前のツアーよりも充実していました。ツアーガイドのゆりこさん始め、日本語の上手な地元のスタッフの暖かい対応にも本当に癒されます。ツアーの様子を撮影してくれるプロのカメラマンさんもいて、後からその写真を買うこともできて、思い出作りにはもってこいですね。その日はラッキーデーだったのか、１００頭を超えるイルカの群れに遭遇し、どこを見てもイルカだらけ！！感無量とはこのことだ！！なんて興奮していました（笑）。イルカジャンプもいたるところで炸裂してました！！ベビーイルカもたくさんいて、お母さんイルカと寄り添って泳いでいる姿は本当にキュート！！たまりません！！海亀スポットにも連れて行ってくれて、初めて亀に触ることができました。しかも２回も！！さらに、港への帰り道には、今はもうアラスカに帰ってしまっているはずの鯨と遭遇！！本当にエキサイティングなツアーでした。スタッフの方の話では１日ツアーや１週間ツアーも企画中とのことで、次回の参加が本当に楽しみです。第一号ツアーにしてはできすぎなくらいに本当に素晴らしいものでした。今後は他のツアーには浮気するつもりはありません！！来年もこのツアーに参加したいと思っています。一人参加で不安がっていた私を暖かく迎えてくれたスタッフのみなさんに本当に感謝です！！ありがとうございました！！せっかくなので、そのときの親子イルカの写真を添付します。かわいすぎます

This was an awesome cruise. The captain gave us a great narrative of Na-Pali as we cruised and enjoyed the beautiful sights. The crew was very friendly and the service was excellent. As an added bonus we were able to spot quite a few whales which was an unexpected treat since it was the middle of April when most whales are on their way back to Alaska.
We had a perfect evening with minimal clouds which ended the cruise with a beauitful sunset. We also saw a dolphin as we were making our way back to the dock.

In February, I participated with my family. According to our guide, this tour is the closest you can get to the sandbar. The scenery on the way to the sandbar by boat was very beautiful. My 4-year-old daughter tried snorkeling for the first time, but she couldn't do it, so our family played around the boat. Along the way, a boy around 6 or 7 years old also seemed to have trouble and returned to the boat. In the end, we were able to see a lucky turtle from the boat.

Reviewed by: 小２と４歳の母

Since my family is prone to seasickness, we usually avoid this type of tour, but we experienced absolutely no seasickness! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The lunch was a simple buffet on the boat, but it was very delicious. There was also snorkeling time at a spot where we could see sea turtles, and my second-grade son had a great time swimming among the adults with his father.

He excitedly reported, "I swam over a sea turtle, and it suddenly turned and bumped into me! It was rough, and I was surprised! But since it bumped into me, I won't get in trouble, right?" (We are not supposed to touch the sea turtles.)

There is no shade except on the boat, so sunscreen and rash guards are essential. A waterproof camera is also a must (they offer a waterproof instant camera for $20 for those who forget, but it's definitely cheaper to buy one in Japan).

After getting wet in our swimsuits, it can be surprisingly cold on the boat with the wind, so in addition to a bath towel, I think having something like a windbreaker would be helpful.

船酔いしやすいので、なかなかこの手のツアーには手が出ない我が家なのですが、まったく船酔いなし！すっかり楽しんでまいりました。ランチも、船の上での簡単なブッフェなのに、とてもおいしかったです。ウミガメに遭えるスポットでのシュノーケリングタイムもあり、小２の息子は父親を従え、オトナたちにまざって楽しんできました。
「ウミガメの上を泳ぎ、ウミガメが急に方向転換してぶつかってきたんだ！ざらざらしててびっくりした！でも、あっちがぶつかってきたんだから、タイホされないよね！」と大興奮で報告してくれました（＝ウミガメは触ってはいけないのです）。
船の上以外、日かげはないので、日焼け止めやラッシュガードは必須。防水カメラも必須（忘れた人用に防水インスタントカメラを$20であっせんしてくれますが、日本で買って行った方が断然安いです）。
水着が濡れた後、船の上で風にあたると意外と寒いので、バスタオルはもちろんですが、ウインドブレーカーのようなものがあるといいかと思います。

I saw lava flows! 溶岩流見られました！

Reviewed by: tobo

I was really looking forward to this helicopter tour since it was my first time, and it did not disappoint; it was incredibly fun.

This trip to Hawaii was specifically for this experience, so I made sure to splurge on a helicopter tour that allowed us to peek into the crater from above. It was truly amazing to see.

The two-hour course included views of Waipi'o Valley, and I thoroughly enjoyed the unique perspective that only a helicopter can provide. Later, we also drove to see it from the ground, and that offered a different kind of emotional experience compared to the aerial view.

The helicopter seats were spacious and clean, and I didn't feel much vibration at all; I had no fear whatsoever. Even those who dislike roller coasters should be fine. I even thought it could have been a bit more thrilling.

As a note, if you're planning to take photos, you should wear dark clothing. In my case, the bright clothes of the person sitting in front of me reflected on the windshield, which was a bit of a hassle. I think it's considerate to wear dark clothes for the sake of others as well.

初めてヘリコプターに乗るツアーということで、とても楽しみにしていましたが、期待は裏切られることなくとても楽しいものでした。

今回は、これが目的で父親を連れてきたハワイでしたので、なんとしても赤いものを見せようと思い、上から火口を覗けるヘリツアーを奮発しました。凄いものを見たなとの思いがしました。

２時間コースなのでワイピオ渓谷も見られ、ヘリならではの舐めるような眺め方を堪能出来ました。
この後地上からも車で見に行ったんですが、これはまたこれで高空からと違いを感じる感動がありましたよ。

ヘリのシートは広くて奇麗で、振動も思ったより感じられず、全く恐怖心も起きませんでした。ジェットコースター嫌いな人もまず大丈夫でしょう。もっとスリルがあっても良いと思った位です。

注意点にもありますが、写真を撮る人は暗い服を着て行くべきです。私の場合、前に座っていた人の明るい服が風防ガラスに写り込んでしまい困りました。
他の人のことも考えて暗い服にするべきだと思います。

ハワイ島　シュノーケルクルーズ　SUP体験もできる充実ツアー！貸し切りプランあり＜午前／朝食・昼食付き＞ by フラカイ号

Fraka'i Cruise フラカイ号クルーズ

Reviewed by: kie

I participated in this cruise with my parents, making it a family of three. We were the only Japanese people there, but everyone was friendly and it was a lot of fun.

The weather was nice that day, but since it was February, it was quite cold when we entered the water. However, once we got used to it, it was no problem at all! We were able to see beautiful tropical fish swimming around.

We snorkeled at two locations, and in between, we enjoyed breakfast and lunch. The large hamburger for lunch was very filling and delicious.

I think this is a great activity for those who want to spend a relaxing time on the sea.

Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any dolphins during the cruise, but we did see whales!

今回このクルーズには両親と3人で参加させていただきました。日本人は私たち家族だけでしたが、皆さん気さくで楽しかったです。

この日はお天気も良かったのですが、やはり2月なので海に入る時は結構寒かったですが、慣れてしまえばもうへっちゃら☆きれいな熱帯魚たちが泳ぐのを見ることができました。

シュノーケルは2箇所で行い、その合間に朝食や昼食をいただきました。昼食のおっきなハンバーガーはボリュウム満点でとってもおいしかったですよ。

のんびりした時間を海の上で過ごしたい方にはいいアクティビティだと思います。

クルーズの途中では残念ながらいるかに会うことはできませんでしたが、鯨には会えましたよ♪

Kealakekua Bay Guided Kayak & Captain Cook Snorkel Tour - Adventures In Paradise

highlight of our trip

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This tour was by far the highlight of our Kona vacation - guide Karen was knowledgeable and friendly and put us at ease even though my sister was a first time snorkeler. She also gave a fantastic history of the island and everything we saw on the way. The best part was seeing a school of dolphins as we were kayaking to the first snorkel sight! I look forward to doing this activity again on my next trip!

It's very beautiful. とってもキレイです

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The sea, sky, and fish were beautiful and full of emotion. Walking in the shallow waters was a relaxing and enjoyable time. There were so many fish while snorkeling that it was surprising, and we even saw turtles. The buffet lunch afterward was also very delicious. It was a wonderful tour overall.

海も空も魚もキレイで感動だらけです。浅瀬のお散歩はのんびりしたいい時間をすごせました。シュノーケルは魚がびっくりするくらいたくさんいて、亀もみられました。その後のバイキングランチもとってもおいしいです。なにもかも素敵なツアーでした。
