Very satisfied. 大満足

Reviewed by: Okada

I was able to try multiple times to swim with the dolphins up close. Thanks to that, I was able to swim among a pod of dolphins. As a bonus, I even got to see a whale, which made me very satisfied. Daisuke truly conveyed his love for dolphins, and it felt like he understood their feelings as well. I'm a repeat visitor to the Big Island, and I will definitely be a repeat customer for this tour too!

本当に近くで一緒にイルカと泳げるまでなんどもトライして頂きました。お陰でイルカの群れの中で一緒に泳ぐことができました。
おまけで、クジラまで見させて頂いて大満足でした。
ダイスケさん、心からイルカを愛している方が伝わり、イルカの気持ちまで分かってるようでした。
ハワイ島リピーターですが、このツアーもリピーターになります!

You should take motion sickness medication! 酔い止め飲んでおくべき!

Reviewed by: ゆみもん

I had a very precious experience being able to see a baby whale up close. My one-and-a-half-year-old daughter was with me, but she fell asleep during the boat's rocking. After she woke up, she was happy walking around the boat. I was satisfied that we also got to see dolphins at the end, but the boat was rocking a lot... A few people ended up getting sick, and my husband was fighting to hold it together. My daughter and I managed to be okay. I think it's a good idea to take motion sickness medication!

赤ちゃんクジラも近くで観れてとても貴重な経験出来ました。
1歳半の娘も一緒でしたが、船の揺れで途中はお寝んね。
起きてからは船の中で歩いたりご機嫌でした。
最後にいるかも見れたので満足でしたが、
船が揺れて揺れて、、、
何人かリバースしてしまったり、主人もギリギリの戦いをしてました。
私と娘はなんとかセーフ。
酔い止め薬は飲んでおくべきだと思います!

Whale Watch Ocean Rafting Tour from Lahaina - Temporarily Unavailable [Dec-Mar]

Highlight of our trip.

Reviewed by: jp&el

Amazing experience with whale that circled us many times and went under the boat. He stayed with us for about 30 minutes - circling, and coming up to look at us - so close we could have reached out and touched him. Finale was when he finally left and gave us a huge breech. Simply incredible - no whale watching tour could ever beat this one. Crew wonderful too. Best day ever.

I was able to see wild dolphins and whales! 野生のイルカ、そしてクジラも見れました!

Reviewed by: きのぴー

The wild dolphins were truly adorable, and I had the best time!! I was also able to see wild whales!! They were swimming side by side and showed us their faces, which was so moving. I would recommend this tour to any friends or acquaintances going to the Big Island!! Captain Daisuke was very friendly, and his love for the dolphins really came through!! For those who are a bit worried about seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication!! I usually don’t get motion sickness, but the rocking of the boat, the waves while swimming, and the tension and excitement completely got to me (laughs). If I get to go to the Big Island again, I will take motion sickness medication and join this tour again!! It was truly the best time!!

野生のイルカ達が本当に可愛くて、最高の時間を過ごせました!!そして野生のクジラも見ることができました!!二頭並んで泳いでてお顔も見せてくれて感動感動感動でした。ハワイ島へ行く友人や知人がいたらこちらのツアーをオススメしたいです!!船長のダイスケさん、すごく気さくでイルカちゃん達への愛がすごく伝わってきました!!少しでも船酔いに心配な方は酔い止めを飲むことをお勧めします!!普段あまり乗り物酔いをしないのですが船の揺れ&泳いでる時の波の揺れ&緊張と興奮で見事にやられました(笑)もしまたハワイ島に行けたら酔い止めを飲んでこちらのツアーに参加します!!本当に最高の時間でしたー!!

Dolphin tour イルカツアー

Reviewed by: maki

At first, I wasn't used to snorkeling, and when I jumped into the sea, I accidentally swallowed some seawater and almost drowned. When I saw dolphins underwater, I panicked trying to capture that moment in a photo and ended up swallowing seawater again...

After a few failures, I finally got the hang of it and was able to film the dolphins' graceful swimming. It was a lot of fun.

最初はシュノーケリングに慣れなくて、海に飛び込んだ時は少し海水を飲んで溺れそうになりました。海中にイルカが見えると、その光景を写真に収めようと慌ててしまい、また海水を飲んでしまうはめに・・・。
何度か失敗しながら、ようやく慣れてきて、イルカの華麗な泳ぎを撮影することが出来ました。楽しかったです。

ナ・パリ・コースト サンセットディナークルーズ 運がよければイルカに会えるかも!<夕食・飲み放題付き/英語ガイド/エレエレ地区>

The Napali Coast, whales, dolphins, sea turtles, sunsets, and so much more—everything was amazing! ナパリコースト、鯨、イルカ、ウミガメ、夕陽などなど、全て最高!

Reviewed by: Taro

We participated as a three-generation family, including parents and children. The cruise was conducted in English only, but thanks to the staff's attentive care, we didn't have much trouble understanding before or during the trip, even though we didn't speak the language.

The cruise lasted about four hours, and right after we set off, we encountered a sea turtle. After that, whales and dolphins kept appearing, and of course, the Na Pali Coast and the sunset were stunning, leaving us no time to get bored.

The service for drinks and food was also quite satisfactory. If you have the opportunity to visit Kauai, I highly recommend considering this experience.

両親・子供を含め三世代で参加しました。
クルーズは英語オンリー、でも、スタッフの手厚い気遣いで、言葉が分からなくても、乗船前も乗船中もあまり困りませんでした。
4時間ほどのクルーズでしたが、出発直後にウミガメに遭遇、その後もひっきりなしに鯨やイルカが現れ、もちろんナパリコーストも夕陽も素晴らしく、退屈する暇がありませんでした。
飲み物や食べ物のサービスもそれなりに充実しています。
カウアイ島に来る機会があれば、ぜひ参加をご検討ください。

A tour that changes your perspective on life. 人生観の変わるツアー

Reviewed by: あんでぃ

It had been since elementary school since I last entered the sea. Not even sure if I could swim, I bought a swimsuit and participated anyway. Before getting on the boat, I took motion sickness medication, applied sunscreen, and set sail with some anxiety.

However, the beautiful sea and sky that unfolded before me quickly blew away my worries.

Fortunately, I encountered dolphins at a reef where they only play when they're in a good mood. It was a wonderful experience. It was truly a playful interaction with the dolphins. They didn't just swim past me; I was surrounded by dozens of dolphins from all sides, even at my feet—it felt like a dream.

I dove three times. Even in the deep sea, I felt no fear when jumping in. I was surprisingly filled with excitement and anticipation.

I was also drawn to the personality of our guide, realizing that there are people who can live such wonderful lives. It made me reflect on the importance of being mindful of everything I choose to engage with. I expressed to my husband, who joined me, that I want to avoid things that harm nature or animals as much as possible. I decided to study nature more and see it up close.

Ah, if only I could swim better…! I definitely want to come back someday.

海に入るのは小学生ぶり。自分が泳げるかどうかも分からない状態で、取り敢えず水着だけ買って参加しました。
ボートに乗る前に、酔い止めを飲み、日焼け止めを塗り、不安を抱えながらも出港。
目の前に広がった美しい海と空に、不安は一気に吹き飛びました。

運良く、イルカさんがご機嫌な時しか遊ばないというリーフでイルカさんに遭遇。
素晴らしい体験をしてきました。
言葉通りイルカさんとの戯れ。群れが自分の周りを通り過ぎるなんてものではなかったです。
前後左右、足元にも数十頭のイルカさんに囲まれて、夢のようでした。
ダイブは3回。深い海でも、飛び込む際の怖さは一切なかったです。自分でもびっくりするくらいワクワクドキドキしかなかった。

ガイドさんの人間性にも惹かれ、こんなにステキな生き方ができる人もいるのだなぁと。
もっと、自分の手に取るもの一つ一つに意思を持たなくてはならないと考えさせられました。
自然を侵すものや、どうぶつへ痛みを与えるもの、なるべく避けて暮らしていきたいなと、まずは自然のことをもっと勉強してみよう、もっと間近に見に行ってみよう、と一緒に参加した主人と話をしました。

ああ、それにしてももっと、泳げたらなぁ…!
いつかまた、かならず戻ってきたいです。

Deluxe Na Pali Experience Snorkel Tour, Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters

Tour good, but long for us

Reviewed by: Kathy

The tour, boat, crew, food, and scenery were great. For us, water was too cold to snorkel and 5 hours was too long. Probably would have done better on a 2-3 hour cruise. We did see porpoise, turtles, a monk seal and whale spouts, so the company delivered- it was more our issues that made it too long for us. Also, it is a 1 hr, 45 min drive from princeville to marina, so should have signed up for afternoon tour, not morning.

I couldn't see the second try either. 二回トライも見れませんでした

Reviewed by: 裕ママ

I tried on January 2nd in the morning and January 3rd in the afternoon, but I couldn't see anything at all; it was just a cruise. It would have been nice if they could have taken us to spots where we could see dolphins or turtles when we couldn't see whales, but there was nothing at all.

It was tough as a parent to see my 7-year-old's disappointment. I think it would be good to have announcements about the likelihood of sightings and explanations of the spots, but they spoke optimistically, saying that it’s unpredictable, which was very disappointing.

1/2午前、1/3午後にトライしましたが、全く見れずに、ただのクルージングでした。クジラが見れないときは、イルカや亀など見れるスポットに連れていってくれるとかあれば良いのですが、全くなく。
GPSで探してるわけでもなく、7歳の子のガッカリを見ることになり、大変、親として辛かったです。
見える可能性の公表や、スポットの説明などがあると良いと思いますが、予測できないんだよ〜〜と楽観的に話されてて、とても、残念でした。

【冬季限定】ホエールウオッチングクルーズ <2時間/ラハイナ港発/英語ガイド> byエクスプローラー 1号、2号

I saw it!! 見えました!!

Reviewed by: sato

It was right at the beginning of the December season, so I was worried about whether I would be able to see anything, but that morning, while looking at the ocean from my hotel room, I spotted a spout in the distance. I thought I might be lucky today and boarded the boat with that expectation. At first, I could only see the spouts from afar, but I was able to see whales on both the starboard and port sides.

There was one breach, but it happened so suddenly that I couldn't capture it in a photo; it was truly moving. In the latter half, we moved the boat to show us a baby whale. The passengers were all Westerners, with only two of us being Asian. My English is not great, but I chose this small boat because I wanted to experience it. It was a nimble boat, which made it interesting, though it might be dangerous for small children.

However, during check-in, the attitude of the woman at the reception was not great. Even though the voucher clearly stated the time, name, and the number of the reception hut, she returned the voucher saying, "This is not the place. Go to the hut three over." When I showed the voucher to the man at that hut three over, he kindly told me that this was not the right place and even accompanied me back to the first hut.

Even when that man said this was the right place, the woman's attitude was arrogant; she didn't smile and just handed me the boarding number. It was disappointing to see such an attitude, possibly because we were not English-speaking customers.

Additionally, when disembarking, a female crew member was smiling and shaking hands with other passengers, but when my husband extended his hand to express his gratitude, she pulled back.

I didn't feel this way on the Big Island, but on Maui, I had the impression that there was a certain strictness towards Japanese people, aside from this incident.

12月シーズン始まってすぐでしたので見れるか不安でしたが、当日の朝ホテルの部屋から海を見ていると。遠くに潮吹きが見えました。
これは今日はラッキーかもと期待しての乗船。最初は遠くで潮を吹いている様子でしたが、右舷、左舷どちら側でもクジラを見ることができました。
 ブリーチは一度だけ、突然だったので写真におさめることはできませんでしたが、感動ものです・
後半は、船を移動して子どもくじらを見せてくれました。
乗客は、欧米人のみ。東洋人は、当方2人でした。英語はさっぱりですが、なん小さい船にのりたかったので選びました。
小回りがきく船ですので、おもしろかったです。小さなお子さんは危ないかも。
ただ、チェックインの際、受付の女性の態度がいまいちでした。
バウチャーには、しっかり時間、名前、そして受付小屋の番号も記載されているのに、「ここと違う。三つむこうの小屋へ」とバウチャーを返され、その三つむこうの小屋の受付のおじさんに、バウチャーを見せると、ここではないよと親切に言ってくれ、しかもいっしょに最初の小屋についてきてくれました。
 その人にこれはここと言われても、女性の態度は横柄で、にこりともせず、乗船番号札をわたしてくれました。
 英語圏の客でないのが気にくわないのか、残念な態度でした。

そして、もうひとつ、下船の際、クルーの女性が、他の乗客に笑顔で握手していたので、主人が感謝の言葉を言いながら手をさしだすとひっこめられました。

ハワイ島では感じなかったのですが、マウイ島では、この時以外にも日本人に対してきびしいかな

I will never participate again. もう二度と参加はしない

Reviewed by: たらむ

First, the pickup was 15 minutes late. Just as I was about to call because I couldn't wait any longer, they finally arrived, and of course, there was no apology. Next, when boarding the boat, it was so crowded that there were no seats at all. Our group of six had to stand both going and coming back. The staff completely ignored the fact that we were standing without seats. It was difficult to stand with the boat swaying, and when I tried to go towards the deck to grab the handrail, I was told I couldn't. I had no choice but to keep standing. A minute later, when a foreigner tried to go to the deck, the staff said nothing. So, we also moved to the deck. My wife's parents, who are elderly and have weak legs, were with us, and I think it's terrible to accept reservations when there are no seats available. Even though we were visible to the staff, they did nothing and even prevented us from going to the deck. Moreover, when we were sent back, there was no explanation, and we had no idea which car we were supposed to get into. At one point, they changed the route to drop off other customers, and for some reason, they started picking up new customers, leaving us anxious about when they would finally send us. They stopped for a long time near the Sheraton without any explanation, and since it seemed like we wouldn't be departing anytime soon, we had no choice but to get off and go shopping. It was truly the worst experience. I will never use this company's tour again.

まずピックアップは15分遅れ。待ちきれず電話しようとしたところでやっと到着、もちろん謝罪はない。つぎに船に乗る際人がいっぱいで、座るところが全くない。私たち6人のグループだけが行きも帰りも立ったまま。スタッフは我々が座れず立っているのに全く無視。ゆれて立っているのが大変なため船の手すりに捕まろうとデッキの方へ行こうとしたらダメと言われ、仕方なく立っていた。その1分後に外人がデッキへ行こうとしたらスタッフは何も言わず。なので我々もデッキへ移動。妻の親が参加しており老人で足腰弱いんだから、座る場所もないのに予約を受けるなんて最悪と思います。我々がスタッフに見えているにもかかわらず、なんの対応もせずデッキにすら行かせるのを邪魔して一体なんなんだと思います。しかも帰りの送りの際もなんの説明もなく、いったいどの車に乗ればいいのかさっぱりわからなかった。途中他の客の求めでコースを変えて降ろしていたし、何故か新たに客を乗せ出しているしいつになったら我々を送ってくれるんだとやきもきしました。途中シャラトンのそばでなんの説明もなくずっと停車しいつまで待っても出発しそうにない為、仕方なく我々は降車し買い物にでかけました。本当に最悪でした。二度とこの会社のツアーは利用しません。

A highly satisfying tour. 大満足のツアー

Reviewed by: 家族連れ

This was my second time on a dolphin swimming tour in Hawaii, but the experience on the Big Island far surpassed my previous one. Following the guide's instructions, a pod of about 50 dolphins came close to us repeatedly. The location of the dolphins changes daily, and on the day we participated, the guide had confirmed in advance that they were near the harbor. Therefore, we didn't have to search for them by boat.

We encountered the dolphins shortly after departing from the harbor, allowing us to swim with them for a long time, even after other boats had left. I could clearly hear the dolphins' calls underwater.

Both the guide and the boat captain were very proficient in Japanese, so there was no language barrier. They provided wetsuits, fins, and masks, making it enjoyable even for those who are not confident swimmers. Our third grader had a great time as well.

I highly recommend this experience if you visit the Big Island.

ハワイでのイルカと泳ぐツアーは2回目でしたが、ここハワイ島での体験は前回の経験をはるかに凌駕する素晴らしいものでした。
ガイドさんの教えの通りにしていると、約50頭の群れが何度も何度も近くへ寄って来てくれました。毎日イルカのいる場所は変わるそうで、私たちが参加した日は、ハーバーから近いところにイルカがいることをガイドさんが事前に確認してくれていました。そのため、ボートでイルカを捜しまわることもありませんでした。
ハーバーを出港してあっという間にイルカに遭遇出来たため、そこから時間一杯まで、他のボートがいなくなってもたっぷりイルカと泳がせていただけました。イルカの鳴き声も水中でしっかり聞こえました。
ガイドさん、ボートのキャプテン共に日本語が大変お上手なため、言葉の心配はありませんし、ウェットスーツとフィン、マスクなど一式貸してもらえるので、泳ぎが苦手な方でも十分楽しめると思います。わが家の小学3年生も十分enjoyしていました。
ハワイ島を訪れた際には、ぜひ、経験されることをおすすめします。

A man who loves dolphins and is loved by dolphins! Yes, he is—! イルカを愛し、イルカに愛された男!そう、彼こそはー!

Reviewed by: mas myk

Daisuke, our guide, was wonderful with his attentiveness.

The weather was drizzly and chilly, not typical for Hawaii, but we were able to see plenty of dolphins! We even got to see them jump, which was very satisfying.

I brought my iPhone in a waterproof case, but it didn't respond to swipes underwater. I was advised to start recording video on the boat, and when I tried that, it worked well.

While I was playing with the dolphins, I got a bit seasick (it's better to take motion sickness medication), but everyone was kind and helped me calm down.

According to Daisuke, "I am confident that we can get you closer to the dolphins than anyone else. If we couldn't see them, I believe other companies' boats wouldn't be able to either." His love for dolphins and constant attentiveness seem to help him know the best spots and share information with others.

If there’s a next time, I would definitely love to join again.

ガイド(インストラクター?)のダイスケさんの気配りが素晴らしかったです。

天候は小雨で肌寒くハワイらしくない日でしたが、イルカちゃん(ダイスケさん風)は沢山見れました!ジャンプ姿も見れて、大満足でした。

iPhoneを防水カバーに入れて持って行きましたが、海の中ではスワイプが反応しません。"船の上で動画を始めた状態にすると良いですよ"と言われたので実践したところ、上手くいきました^ ^

イルカたちと戯れている間、私は途中で波酔いしてしまいました(酔い止めは飲んでおいた方が良いです)が、皆さんが優しく対応して下さり気分を落ち着かせる事が出来ました。

ダイスケさん曰く、"どこよりも、イルカちゃんに会わせてあげる自信があります。僕たちがイルカちゃん達に会えなかったら、他の会社さんの船も絶対会えてないと思います。"との事。イルカを愛し、いつも気遣いをしているからこそ、遭遇ポイントも分かるし、他社の方々とも情報共有出来ているようです。

次回があれば、是非またご厄介になりたいと思います。

A precious experience swimming with wild dolphins! 自然のイルカと泳げる貴重な体験!

Reviewed by: MASA&GRIM

I participated with my wife. The reason we chose this activity, as mentioned in the reviews, is that the guides (Daisuke and Ryo) genuinely care for and love the dolphins.

After actually participating, I felt even more that they truly love dolphins from the bottom of their hearts. We encountered dolphins multiple times and were able to swim with them. It was moving to see them swimming comfortably in the natural sea, including family dolphins and baby dolphins. We could also hear their voices.

On our way back to the port, we encountered a manta ray, and although it wasn't included in the tour, we were given the opportunity to swim with it. Thank you so much!!

When we returned to the port, I strongly felt the desire to protect the natural dolphins. I definitely want to participate again next year!

妻と参加させて頂きました。今回このアクティビティを選んだ理由はリビューにも記載されている通り、ガイドの方(ダイスケさんリョウさん)が心からイルカのことを大切に思い愛されているからでした。

実際参加してみたところ、リビューの内容以上に心身からイルカのことが好きなんだな、と感じました。
何回もイルカとも遭遇し一緒に泳ぐことができました。家族のイルカ、
子供のイルカ等、自然の海を心地よく泳いでいる姿に感動です。
イルカの声も聞くことができました。
港に戻る際はマンタに遭遇し、ツアーの内容には含まれていませんでしたが一緒に泳ぐ機会を与えて頂きました。
本当にありがとうございました!!

港に戻った際は自然のイルカを大切に守っていきたいと強く感じました。
来年も是非参加させて頂きます!

ホエールウォッチ 最大80名乗りのカタマラン船!ソフトドリンク飲み放題付き<ワイキキ送迎可/12/1~3/31>

I was able to see whales, and the male staff who spoke Japanese were really friendly, which was great. クジラも観れたし、日本語を話せるメンズスタッフもすごくフレンドリーでよかった。

The pickup time slightly exceeded the regulation stating, "If more than 10 minutes have passed since the meeting time, call the office," so I was wondering what to do when a cheerful guy and a colorful van appeared. We arrived at the harbor in about 15 minutes.

After signing a document stating that I understood, "Even if you don't see whales, if the boat sinks or if you flirt and die, we won't provide compensation, and it's at your own risk," I boarded the ship.

The boat was clean and spacious. Additionally, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese well, which eased my concerns about the upcoming experience. They were very friendly. Alcohol and soft drinks were all-you-can-drink, and there were two restrooms available, so no worries there.

However, even though the waves were calm, the boat rocked quite a bit, so for those who get motion sickness, I think it would be a 200% chance of getting sick, and even taking motion sickness medication might not help, so it might be better to give up.

On the way out to the open sea, we couldn't spot any whale spouts, so I was somewhat resigned, but while cruising with a beer in hand, watching passenger planes flying overhead in the open waters of Waikiki, I thought it was a nice vacation vibe and good content. Then, on the way back, we discovered a whale spout.

The deck erupted in excitement. After that, we were lucky enough to see multiple whales performing dives and spouting, which was thrilling.

I would say it was a very enjoyable tour experience.

I would recommend it to those who don't get seasick and can enjoy the cruise even if they don't see whales.

If you see a whale, consider yourself lucky.

ピックアップの時間が若干、レギュレーションにある「待ち合わせ時間に10分以上経過した場合は事務所に電話をしろ」という時間を超えていたので、どうしたもんかと思ったところ、陽気なにーちゃんとカラフルなバンが登場。15分程度でハーバーに到着。

「クジラが見えなくても、船が沈没したり、ナンパして、死んでも、おれんところは補償しないし、免責だぜ、」ということを理解しました、という内容にサインしてから乗船。

船は清潔で、広々としてる。さらに日本語を上手に操るスタッフのメンズがいて、今後の流れへの不安は払拭。とてもフレンドリー。
お酒やソフトドリンクも飲み放題。トイレも二つ備え付けなので、心配なし。

ただ、波は穏やかでも、船はそれなりに揺れるので、乗り物酔いする人は200%酔うので、酔い止めを飲んでも効かないレベルだと思うので、諦めた方がいいかもしれない。

外洋まで行く、往路ではクジラの潮吹きを見つけられなかったので、半ば諦めつつも、ビール片手に、ワイキキの外洋を、上空をかすめる、旅客機を見ながらのクルージングは、それはそれで、バカンス感もあり、コンテンツとしても良いかなと思っていた、往路で、クジラの潮吹きを発見。

甲板が一斉に盛り上がる。その後、運良く、複数のクジラが営業ダイビングや、営業潮吹きをしてくれて、盛り上がる。

大変楽しいツアーコンテンツだったと評せる。

船酔いをしない、クジラが見れなくてもクルージングだと思って楽しめる人にはオススメしたい。

クジラが観れたら、それは、ツイてた、ということで。

Maitai Catamaran Waikiki Private Boat Charter

Best Office Holiday Party Ever!

Reviewed by: Wrob

We chartered a catamaran for our office holiday party, and it was the perfect relaxing, fun, and unusual activity for a wonderful time! The two men who captained the boat and tended the bar did a wonderful job! We enjoyed the beauty of being out on the water with excellent beverage service (great maitais!) and nice waves splashing the kids who sat on the net. We would recommend it highly not just for office parties, but for any group. It's a wonderful icebreaker or memory maker activity! We have a lot of diversity of personalities in our office, but everyone had a great time!

  • Sunset sail with a maitai in hand for me, and a soda for the kids!

  • Looking back to shore after sunset with a beautiful Honolulu city skyline to enjoy.

6名限定!ハワイ島 野生のイルカウォッチング+ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー<午前/英語ガイド/軽食付>

Captain, do your best! 船長、もっと頑張れ!

Reviewed by: 家族3人

The weather was clear, the sea was very beautiful, and I had the rare experience of seeing many wild dolphins. However, the boat captain was doing multiple roles alone, which made things difficult. It seemed like he thought we didn't understand English, as there was hardly any conversation or explanation. For example, we were suddenly handed snorkels and told to jump in, which was confusing. We had to watch the movements of other tours to figure out where the dolphins were and decide when to move. It was disappointing that the service spirit was lacking, but overall, I was satisfied with the tour.

天気は快晴、とてもきれいな海、野生のイルカにもたくさん会え、貴重な経験だった。ただ、ボート操縦の船長は、一人で何役もやるので大変なこともあり、我々が英語がわからないと思ったのか会話も説明もほとんどなく、例えばいきなりシュノーケルを渡され飛び込めと言われて困った。他のツアーの動きを見て、イルカはあの辺にいるんだと参加者が判断して動かないといけなかった。サービス精神に欠ける人だったのが残念だが、ツアー自体は満足した。

As mentioned in a separate email, I have conveyed your feedback directly to the operating company.

We started our tour from Wailea by rental car, visiting places like the Tree Tunnel, Hanapepe Valley, and Old Koloa Town, with a lunch break along the way, and reached Port Allen in about four hours.

In front of the meeting point at the Holoholo Charters office, there’s a Kauai Chocolate shop! I was really impressed by the samples (laughs). When we arrived at 1:00 PM, newlywed couples and others began to gather.

The captain of the cruiser and the female crew were friendly and kind. Of course, the views of the Na Pali Coast were stunning. Although it was the rainy season in November and it rained a bit, it stopped quickly, allowing us to see a beautiful full-size rainbow. We even encountered dolphins welcoming us! The sunset provided an incredible photo opportunity.

It can be quite bumpy. Most people are fine, but if you're worried about seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication.

I highly recommend this experience. Be aware that drinks like beer and wine are unlimited!

集合場所のホロホロチャーターズの事務所前にカウアイチョコレートのショップあり!試食で大感激(笑)。1:00PMについて待ってると新婚のカップルなどなど集合してきました。
クルーザーのキャプテンや女性クルーも気さくで親切。もちろんナパリコーストの景観は素晴らしく。11月雨季とのことで雨が降ったがすぐ止みおかげできれいな虹がホールサイズで見ることができました。イルカの歓迎にも遭遇!もちろんサンセットはまたとない写真が撮れました。
かなり揺れます。ほとんどの人は平気ですが船酔い心配なかたは酔い止め薬を。
絶対オススメです。飲み物はビール、ワイン、など飲み放題なのでご注意を。

ナ・パリ・コースト セーリング シュノーケリング付き<朝食・ビュッフェ昼食付き/英語ガイド>

Full of impact! 迫力満点!

Reviewed by: sue

I participated with my husband. There were about 40 participants, but we were the only Japanese. The staff doesn't understand Japanese, but it's not a matter of life and death. It would be even better if you can speak English at a conversational level.

On the way to Na Pali Coast, there are points where you can go snorkeling. If you're lucky, you might swim with turtles and dolphins. It's a valuable experience!

The breathtaking views of Na Pali Coast will be etched in your memory! The boat goes at a decent speed, so be careful of seasickness. By the way, I personally got seasick due to fatigue from work the day before and lack of sleep.

プライベートチャーター ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー!GoProレンタルあり<午前/日本語ガイド>

I was able to meet a lot of dolphins. たくさんのイルカに会えました

Reviewed by: ミカコ

When we gathered, the guide mentioned that on the same tour a few days prior, they hadn't encountered any dolphins, which made me a bit worried. However, we were lucky to see many dolphins!

After heading out to sea, I learned that usually, they swim slowly towards where the dolphins are, but that day, there were unusually many dolphins coming towards us.

While we were fortunate, I believe it was also thanks to the guide who chose that location. The guide decides where to wait for the dolphins.

The boat ride took about 30 to 40 minutes, but the guide shared various stories about the Big Island, dolphins, and whales, making the journey enjoyable. It was also nice that it wasn't a large group tour, but rather a small one. Thank you very much.

集合したときガイドさんに、私が参加した数日前の同じツアーでは全くイルカに出会えなかったと聞いて心配になりましたが、運よくたくさんのイルカに会えました。
沖にでてからも、いつもはイルカのいるほうへ少しずつ泳いで移動するそうですが、その日はいつになくたくさんのイルカが来てくれてたそうで、イルカのほうから寄ってきてくれる感じでした。

運もよかったですが、その場所を選んでくれたガイドさんのおかげでもあると思います。どのあたりでイルカを待つかはガイドさんの判断だそうです。

船での移動は30~40分ほどありましたが、ガイドさんもハワイ島やイルカやクジラのいろんな話をしてくれたので、移動中も楽しく過ごせました。一度に大勢参加するツアーではなく少人数でのツアーだったのもよかったです。
ありがとうございました。

A wonderful experience. A memory for a lifetime. 素晴らしい体験。一生の思い出

Reviewed by: りんごジュース

I encountered a large number of dolphins—countless, really. On this day, I was lucky to spot dolphins right after getting on the boat. We swam with them for about an hour without moving. The dolphins jumped and were very playful.

In the water, some were sleeping while others were active; the active ones would come up to the surface and then swim close to us repeatedly. The sleeping ones floated in deeper waters. The sound of the dolphins chirping could be heard all around, making it a truly precious experience.

This tour might be canceled soon, but I’m really glad I was able to participate. By the way, even if you can't swim, they provide flotation devices, so you can still join. If you go to Hawaii, you definitely should do this! Lastly, thank you so much to the captain who took us back and shared various things about Kona.

大量のイルカちゃんと遭遇。数え切れないくらい。。
この日はラッキーで船で移動してすぐにイルカと遭遇しました。そしてそのまま移動することなく1時間程泳いでました。
イルカもジャンプしてくれたり、サービス精神旺盛です。
水中は寝てる子と活動してる子がいて、活動してる子は気ままに水面に上がっては近づいての繰り返し。寝てる子は深いところでプカプカ。
イルカのキュイキュイという声があちらこちらで聞こえていて、とても貴重な体験となりました。
もしかしたらもうすぐ中止になってしまうかもしれないツアーですが、参加できて本当に良かった。
ちなみに泳げなくても浮具を貸してくれるので参加できます。ハワイにいったら絶対やったほうがいいです!
最後に、帰り送っていただいた船長さん、コナのことも色々教えて頂いて、本当にありがとうございました(*^^*)

The day before and the day before that, I heard that no dolphins were seen at all. However, contrary to my worries, many dolphins appeared! The baby dolphins were tiny and adorable! There were many honeymooners, including us. Since the sun is strong while moving on the boat, it's better to have a rash guard or something similar.
