Awesome awesome awesome. We had a volcano tour on 3/8/20 with Mike. He was the best. He was especially good with our very inquisitive grandson. He was knowledgeable also!!!! He was great great great!!!!

When you arrive at the park, a staff member who speaks Japanese will guide you around the park. When it's time, you'll change into your swimsuit in a restroom-like area! Life vests are distributed, and then it's off to the dolphin pool! The dolphin instructor speaks entirely in English. They explain various things about the dolphin's body, but even if you don't understand English, there's no need to worry as they use body language to show you when it's okay to touch the dolphin!

During the tour, each person receives a photo with the dolphin as a gift! It was a wonderful keepsake!

The dolphin show afterward was also enjoyable, and I participated in the feeding experience, which required an additional fee.

This park is highly recommended if you visit Hawaii! Along the way, you can also see Sunday Beach, and the scenery is fantastic!

パークに到着すると、日本語担当の方がパークの案内をしてくれます
時間になるとお手洗いのようなところで水着にチェンジ！
ライフベストを配られいざイルカさんのプールへ！
イルカインストラクターの方はオールイングリッシュ。
イルカの体の作りなど色々説明してくれます。
英語がわからなくても、ボディランゲージで今イルカにさわっていいよ！など教えてくれてるので心配無用です！！

ツアーでは一人一枚イルカさんとのお写真プレゼント！とっても記念に残りました！

そのあとのイルカショーも楽しく、フィーディング体験もできたので追加料金がかかりますが参加しました！

ハワイに行ったらぜひぜひオススメのパークです！
途中、サンデイビーチなどもみえ、景色も最高です！

They picked us up by car in Waikiki and on the way to Haleiwa, we stopped by Dole, where we had the recommended garlic shrimp for lunch. After that, it was finally time for horseback riding! We experienced riding through the forest and along the coast from the golf course. I think it lasted about an hour, which was just right. On the way back, we also stopped at a coffee shop for a restroom break, and I was very satisfied. I would like to participate again.

ワイキキまで車で迎えに来てくれて、ハレイワまで行く途中に、ドールへ立ち寄り、ランチはお勧めのガーリックシュリンプを食べ、そのあと
いよいよ乗馬！ゴルフ場から森林を通り、海沿いを乗馬体験しました。1時間ぐらいだと思いますがちょうど良かったです。帰りも途中でコーヒーショップへ立ち寄りトイレ休憩があり、とても満足出来ました。また参加したいと思います。

My husband and I participated with our 5-year-old child. It takes about 30 to 40 minutes to reach the snorkeling spot, but the waves are quite high, so I think it's essential for those who are prone to motion sickness to take anti-nausea medication. On the way to our destination, we even saw whales, which got our child very excited.

At first, our 5-year-old was scared of snorkeling, but there was a bodyboard-like device with a transparent section, and they enjoyed peeking through it. The sea was also very beautiful, and our family was extremely satisfied. This is definitely a tour we would like to participate in again.

夫、5歳の子どもと参加しました。
30〜40分かけてシュノーケリングスポットに行きますが、波がかなり高く乗り物酔いしやすい方は酔い止め薬必須だと思います。
目的地まで行く間も鯨が見えたりと子ども大興奮でした。
シュノーケリングは5歳の子どもは最初は怖がっていましたが、ボディーボードのようなものに乗って一部が透明になっているのでそこを覗きながら楽しんでいました。海もとても綺麗で家族で大変満足しています。
是非また参加したいツアーでした。

First of all, if you are thinking about swimming with dolphins, it's better to refrain from participating. You will only be able to see the dolphins swimming on the ocean floor from above, and that lasts just a moment.

To catch that brief glimpse, you will be waiting on the boat for a long time. However, the excitement and sense of achievement when you finally see them is incredible. I was thrilled.

You will be swimming tirelessly to reach the dolphins' location, so it can be tiring. But it's fun. You must have the determination to see the dolphins. Once everyone has seen them, there will be free time with activities like a slide, which is very enjoyable.

By the way, I heard that on the previous day's tour, they weren't able to see any dolphins, so it can depend on luck. Also, it gets cold on the way back, so don't forget to bring a jacket. I think it's a good idea to change out of your swimsuit in the restroom as well.

まずはじめにらイルカと一緒に泳げるとかと思ってる方は、参加をご遠慮したほうが良いです。　
イルカが海底で泳いでいる姿を上から眺める程度です。それも一瞬です。
この一瞬を見るためひたすら船の上で待機です。その分、見れたときの感動や達成感はすごかったです。興奮してました。
ただイルカがいる位置までひたすら泳ぐので、疲れます。でも楽しいです。絶対イルカ見てやるという気持ちでひたすら泳がなければなりません。全員が見れたら、スベり台など自由時間となります。とても楽しいです。
ちなみに、前日のツアーではイルカを見ることができなかったと言ってましたので、運にも左右されます。
こちらのツアーも帰りは寒いので上着などは忘れずに。トイレで水着から着替えるのも良いかと思います。

I used this service for my first tour after arriving in Hawaii. It was amazing, just as I expected. Since it was only Japanese tourists, I felt safe and enjoyed myself. However, I went during the COVID period, so I brought my own snorkel and goggles.

I heard that you need to be able to swim to some extent for turtle watching. Hearing that made me nervous and I almost gave up, but watching the turtle watching group made me think it would be okay. I definitely recommend going even if you can't swim. I believe it will work out. I brought my snorkel and goggles but ended up not participating, which was a mistake.

While waiting for the turtle watching group, there are inflatable rings and other toys available, so don't worry. You can have plenty of fun. Also, it gets cold on the way back, so if you don't have something to wear, you might catch a cold. It's better to prepare a jacket and pants that you can wear over your swimsuit, as the bus ride back can be chilly.

ハワイに着いて最初のツアーで利用しました。
期待通り最高でした。日本人ツアー客のみなので、安心して楽しめました。
しかしながら、ちょうどコロナの時期に行ったので、個人でシュノーケルとゴーグルを持参し行きました。
ウミガメウォッチングはある程度、泳げる人と言われます。その言葉を聞いてびびって諦めましたが、ウミガメウォッチング組の様子を見てるとなんとかなると思いました。是非、泳げなくても見に行ってください。なんとかなると思います。小生はシュノーケルとゴーグルを持参したのに参加せず失敗しました。
ウミガメウォッチング組を待ってる間は、浮き輪など遊び道具はありますので安心してください。十分に楽しめます。
あと帰りは寒いので、羽織るものが無いと風邪引きます。
濡れても良い水着の上から着れる、上着とズボンを用意したほうが良いです。帰りのバスは寒いです。

Since I arranged everything personally from the hotel without using a tour company, it felt like being left to my own devices the moment I got off the plane. If you want to get to the hotel and Ala Moana Shopping Center smoothly, I recommend using a service without pushing yourself too hard. Once you're familiar with Hawaii, I think it's good to take the bus or a taxi by yourself. Also, please compare your arrival time at the airport with the operating hours of Ala Moana Shopping Center and consider that. I recommend using a service after arriving in Hawaii.

ツアー会社を利用せず、個人でホテルから手配したので飛行機降りた瞬間放置プレイとなります。
スムーズにホテルやアラモアナショッピングセンターに行きたいなら、無理せず利用をおすすめします。ハワイに慣れたら、ご自分でバスやタクシーに乗るのが良いと思います。
また空港到着時間とアラモアナショッピングセンターの営業時間を比較し検討して見て下さい。
ハワイ到着後の利用をおすすめします。

We were overly impressed with the dinner cruise and had so much fun!!
It was nice to experience the dancing and music of several Polynesian islands. The sunset was amazing and the night view of Waikiki and Honolulu was pristine. So glad we decided to do this to celebrate our 37th anniversary!

In early March, we participated in a sunset cruise departing from the beach right in front of the Waikoloa Beach Marriott. We were the only Japanese guests, but the cruise included simple snacks and two drinks with alcohol.

The female captain announced that we might see dolphins and whales today, so everyone focused on searching for them while enjoying the scenery. Soon, one person spotted a sea turtle, and just as we were excited about that, the captain informed us that a pod of dolphins was nearby, prompting all the passengers to start watching. Then we spotted a whale! Everyone got really excited, sharing sightings of dolphins and whales, and the first half of the cruise was filled with excitement over dolphin and whale watching rather than just enjoying the views.

In the second half, we enjoyed the stunning Waikoloa sunset accompanied by slow Hawaiian music, making it a very satisfying sunset cruise.

３月初めに宿泊先のワイコロアビーチマリオットの目の前のビーチから出発のサンセットクルーズに参加しました。日本人は私たち夫婦だけでしたが簡単なおつまみとアルコールを含む2ドリンクつき。

女性キャプテンからのアナウンスで今日はイルカや鯨も見えるかもとのことで皆景色を楽しみながらもそれらを探すのに集中。
すぐに一人がウミガメを発見し、喜んでいると今度はキャプテンからイルカの群れがすぐ近くにの見えるとのお知らせに乗客皆でウォッチング^_^
そして今度は鯨を発見！
皆さん、ハイテンションになり、あちこちに見えるイルカや鯨を発見しては教え合い、前半は景色を楽しむよりイルカ&ホエルウォッチングで大盛り上がりでした。

後半はスローなハワイアンミュージックをバックに素晴らしいワイコロアのサンセットが見られ大満足のサンセットクルーズでした。

This is a wonderful tour. The boat is comfortable and a mild ride for all ages. The waterfall and fern grotto are beautiful. You receive history of the area and enjoy Hawaiian song and dance. There is time to walk around and enjoy the beauty

The guide was fantastic, She was very informative and engaging. The bus tour and lay out of all the sites were very good. Well worth your time and money. The lunch buffet was very good. Souvenir shop was not over priced and a lot of memories to take home. Friendly and helpful staff. We will go again next year as we are already booked to return to your beautiful island home.

Everything was great. Tour guides were so cute and had so much knowledge. Each island was very entertaining. Even though it rained heavily most of the day it didn't dampen the experience. The ending pageant was fabulous. We were a little disappointed in the luau but still very entertaining. Definitely something we would do again. Waited 45 married years to get to Hawaii and see this event.

I had a great time interacting with people from various countries and participating in the anniversary event. The sunset was very beautiful.

色んな国の方と交流ができてアニバーサリーイベントにも参加できて楽しかったです。夕陽はとても綺麗に見れました。、

My first whale watching experience was wonderful as I got to see a mother and calf whale. I thought we might be able to see them a bit closer, but I understand that it’s a matter of the whales' safety. The boat was large. Since it was a plan without meals, those who had breakfast included were enjoying a buffet before departure. It would be better for those without meals to eat beforehand. I didn't expect to see whales so close to Honolulu; the view of Honolulu from the sea was also very beautiful. Not only the whales, but I could also see Diamond Head beautifully from the ocean. It was a very elegant cruise.

初のホエールウォッチングで、親子の鯨が見れてとても良かった。もう少し近くで見れるかと思った。鯨の安全性の問題なので仕方ないと思った。船は大きい船だった。食事なしのプランだったので、朝食付きの人は出港前にブッフェを食べていた。食事なしの人はご飯を食べていった方が良い。ホノルルからこんなに近いところで見れるとは思わなかった、海から見るホノルルもとても景色が良かった。鯨だけでなく、ダイヤモンドヘッドも綺麗に海から見れた。とても優雅なクルーズだった。

Although I had experience in Japan, parasailing in Hawaii was the best. The view of Diamond Head from above was exceptional. Communicating with the young couple I shared the ride with was an added bonus and was fun as well.

日本で経験はあったものの、ハワイでのパラセーリングは最高でした。特に上空からのダイヤモンドヘッドは格別でした。
同乗した若いカップルとのコミュニケーションも、おまけで楽しかったです。

We went with a group of ten, and the staff were very friendly and engaging, which made for a great atmosphere. It was a fun time that flew by in no time.

10人で行ったのですが、スタッフ皆さん気さくに話してくださり、とても盛り上がりました。あっという間の楽しい時間でした。

It was my travel companion's husband's long-awaited whale watching experience, and we participated with a light-hearted attitude, thinking it would be lucky if we got to see any whales.

Although it was a large boat and we couldn't get too close, we were able to see whales jumping about three times at a distance that was clear enough to observe with the naked eye. I thought it would have been nice to have binoculars.

同行者の夫念願のホェールウォッチングでしたが、見ることが出来たらラッキーだね。くらいの軽い気持ちでの参加でしたが、

大型船なのですぐ近くとは行きませんが充分肉眼で確認できるほどの距離でのジャンプを3度ほど見ることが出来ました。
双眼鏡を持っていたら良かったかなと思いました。

We had a horseback riding experience in the morning as a family of three. It was everyone's first time, but we had a lot of fun. The blue sky and green scenery were amazing, and we spent about two hours on a spacious ranch. At times, we even trotted, which was thrilling, and my daughter enjoyed it as well. At higher altitudes, we entered the clouds, and the guide explained everything in clear English while being considerate of everyone's situation, which made us feel at ease. I recommend the 2.5-hour plan. It was a wonderful experience! I want to go again!

家族三人での朝からの乗馬体験。
全員初めてでしたが楽しかった。
青空とグリーンの景色が最高で広々とした牧場を2時間ほど。途中何度か駆け足で進んでみたりドキドキでしたが、娘も楽しんでいました。
標高の高いところでは雲の中に入って行ったり、ガイドのお姉さんがわかりやすい英語で説明してくれたり、みんなの状況を見ながら気遣ってくれたりと安心でもありました。2.5時間プランお薦めです。
素晴らしい体験！また行きたい！

It was my first experience, and it was very interesting. I have a slight fear of heights, but since it was a special trip to Hawaii, I mustered up the courage to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. I decided to challenge myself to 150 meters, and surprisingly, it wasn't as scary as I thought; rather, I was able to enjoy the view from a height that I usually can't see. However, while waiting for other guests, the boat rocked more than I expected, and I felt quite seasick. Normally, I don't get that nauseous in cars or buses, but even for me, it was pretty tough towards the end. I didn't actually throw up, but it was quite challenging. I think motion sickness medication is essential. In any case, I had a great experience this time. There was a Japanese newlywed couple among the other guests, so we asked each other to take photos and videos, and we didn't purchase the paid photos.

初めての経験でしたがとても面白かったです。
若干高所恐怖症なのですがせっかくのハワイ旅行だしと思って勇気を出して挑戦してみて良かったです。
せっかくの機会と思い150mに挑戦しましたが意外と怖さはなく、むしろ普段見ることのできない高いところからの景色を堪能することができました。
ただ、他の客がやっているのを待っている時の船が予想以上に揺れて船酔いがきつかったです。
普段車やバスではそこまで酔うことはないのですがそんな私でも最後の方かなりきつくて、吐くまではいきませんでしたが相当しんどかったです。
酔い止めは必須なのではないかと思います。
いずれにせよ今回は良い経験をさせて頂くことができました。
他のお客さんで日本人の新婚旅行夫婦がいたのでお互いに写真や動画の撮影をお願いして、有料の写真は購入しませんでした。

I saw whales in the distance about three times. I was a bit disappointed that I didn't see them as much as I had hoped, but on the way back, a large group of dolphins came close to us. They jumped a lot, and just the dolphins alone were very enjoyable to watch! It was a great deal that one child was free with the campaign.

クジラは遠くに3回ほど見えました。
思ったより見られなくて残念でしたが帰りにイルカの大群が近くに来てくれました。
たくさんジャンプしてくれてイルカだけでも充分見応えありました！
キャンペーンで子供1人無料だったのがとてもお得でした。

If the weather had been good, it would have been perfect... The staff's service was great, and the food was delicious. I want to go again on a nice day!!

天気さえ良ければ、最高だったのですが.......
スタッフの皆さんの対応も良く、食事も美味しかった
天気の良い日にもう一度行きたいです!!

This was my fourth dolphin tour. This time, I participated with my son and his wife. After hearing my stories, they were both eager to go and looking forward to it. The waves were calm, the temperature was pleasantly warm, and we were blessed with great weather, which was completely different from last time. The number of dolphins we encountered was by far the highest this time! The clarity of the water was also the best it has ever been! We saw a lot of fish too! My son and his wife were very satisfied and said they would definitely go again next time. I've participated multiple times, and the staff has always been very nice. The tour bus seems to get more luxurious every time I join (laughs). I definitely want to participate again, no, I will participate!!

今回で4回目のイルカツアーでした。
今回は息子夫婦と3人で参加しました。
私の話を聞いて、二人とも絶対行きたいと、楽しみにしていました。
波も穏やかで、気温も程よく暖かく、前回とは全く違って天気に恵まれました。
イルカと会えた数、今回がダントツで一番でした！
海の透明度も今回が最高でした！魚もたくさん見れました！
息子たちも大満足で、次回も絶対に行くと言っていました。
何回も参加していますが、スタッフの方もとてもいい感じです。
ツアーのバスは参加する度にリッチになっていますね（笑）
またぜひ参加したいと思います、いえ、参加します！！

I was worried about seasickness, so I thought a larger boat would be safer and decided to join this tour.

● Transportation
★ The pickup was by a larger bus, gathering at a nearby hotel.
★ On the way back, I was able to get dropped off at Ala Moana.

⚫︎ Meals
★ I hesitated about including breakfast, thinking that the food on the boat might make me feel sick, so I decided against it.
★ Many people opted for breakfast, and everyone was eating before the boat started moving.
★ Since there was time before departure, it was possible to eat if you brought your own food.

⚫︎ Whales
★ As for the whales, we saw them!! However, we couldn't see them very closely.
We could see them spouting water and their tails from a distance.
★ On the way back, a pod of dolphins appeared, and we were able to see them up close, which was very satisfying!

船酔いが心配だったので、こちらの大きめの船なら安心かなっと思いこちらのツアーに参加しました。

●送迎
★送迎は大きめのバスで近くのホテルに集合でした。
★帰りはアラモアナで降ろしてもらう事も出来ました。

⚫︎食事
★朝食付きか迷いましたが、船の中の食事は気持ち悪くなるかも、、と思いやめておきました。
★朝食付きにしてる方は多く、船が動き出す前に皆さん食事をとられていました。
★持参しても出発まで時間もあるし食べる事は可能です

⚫︎くじら
★肝心のクジラは、、見れました！！ただやはりそんなに近くではなかなか見れなかったです。
潮をふいているのと、しっぽが遠くですが、みえました。
★帰りにイルカの群れが現れてくれてそちらは至近距離で見られたので大満足です！

This time, we participated in a tour just for the two of us, and we were very satisfied with the almost one-on-one guidance and instruction. We were able to enjoy the sunrise as well. Our guide was from the Kansai region, which made us feel a sense of familiarity, and we were able to relax and have a great time. Thank you very much.

今回は、二人だけでのツワー参加で、ほぼマンツーマンでの指導と案内で、
朝日も拝めて大満足でした。
ガイドさんが、関西出身の方だったので、親近感が有って、とてもリラックスして楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。
ありがとうございました。

There were various slides, and it was a lot of fun. Climbing the slopes to get to the slides was quite challenging! Since it was a weekday, it wasn't crowded. It seemed like there were few staff members, and they were operating the slides at intervals. If you miss the timing, you can't slide. But a pool without crowds is incredibly enjoyable! Even if you get a little hurt, there was a staff member in the first aid room who applied medicine for me. It's reassuring for families with children, and of course, there was no charge for it.

色々なスライダーがあって楽しかったです。スライダーの為に、坂道をたくさん上らないといけないのが、結構大変でした！ｗ　平日だったので混雑は無かったけど。スタッフも少ないようで、スライダーの運行を時間おきに対応していました。タイミングを逃すと、滑れないスライダーが。でも混雑してないプールって最高に楽しいです♬　　ちょいと怪我をしても、救護室に先生もいて薬塗ってくれました。お子様連れも安心かと。もちろん費用はとられません。

While I was signing the consent form and choosing a helmet, a video about how to handle the horses and safety precautions was playing, so I couldn't watch it much, and since it was my first time riding, I felt very anxious.

I thought I would be able to ride along the beach of Kaneohe Bay as shown in the pictures, but I could only see it from a great distance. Also, it mentioned, "You must have seen that famous tree from the 'What tree is that?' commercial," and I thought I would be able to see that big tree, but I couldn't. (I also couldn't find the monkey pod tree.)

The riding itself was a bit nerve-wracking at first, but the horse was very cute and I had a lot of fun. ^_^ Other people's horses had some unexpected moments, like stopping to eat grass or going to the bathroom. I would love to visit again if I have the chance.

同意書にサインしている時やヘルメットを選んでいる時に馬の操り方や注意事項に関するビデオが流されていたのであまり見ることができず、初めての乗馬だったのでとても不安でした。

説明の写真のようにカネオヘ湾の浜辺を乗馬できると思っていたのですが、すごく遠くから見える程度でした。
また、「誰でも一度は見たことがあるはずあの木なんの木のCMで有名な」と書いてあり、あの大きな木が見えるのだと思っていましたが見れませんでした。（モンキーポットの木もどこにあるかわかりませんでした。）

乗馬自体は初めは緊張しましたが、お馬さんがとても可愛く楽しかったです^_^
他の方のお馬さんは、途中で道草を食べたり、うんちやおしっこをしたりハプニングがありました。
また機会があれば訪れたいです。

I was able to see dolphins! It was moving to see them jumping. The hamburger I had as a light snack was also really delicious!

イルカみることができました！飛び跳ねるところもみれて感動でした。また軽食のハンバーガーも本当に美味しかったです！

This time, I participated in a movie location tour and a jungle tour. It was a lot of fun in the vast nature. The driver for the jungle tour was a woman who couldn't speak Japanese, and she lacked a bit of service spirit, which was a little disappointing. However, the jungle tour itself was enjoyable. Since it was in the jungle, the weather changed quickly, and it rained heavily, soaking my clothes.

今回は映画のロケ地ツアーやジャングルツアーに参加しました。広大な大自然の中、とても楽しかったです。ジャングルツアーは、日本語が話せない女性がドライバーでしたが、あまりサービス精神がなく、少し残念でした。ジャングルツアー自体は楽しかったです。ジャングルなので、天気が変わりやすく、凄い雨が降ったりして、洋服がびしょぬれになりました。

I had some anxiety since it was my first time using the service, but the smiles of the welcoming staff completely eased my worries. There was almost no waiting time at the airport. Since the hotel check-in was at 3 PM, I used the lounge at Ala Moana Center. The staff at the lounge were very pleasant, and I didn't feel any language barrier at all. I definitely want to use this service again next time. I highly recommend it.

初めての利用で多少不安も有りましたが出迎えてくれた方々の笑顔で不安もすべて吹き飛びました。空港での待ち時間も殆どなし。ホテルのチェックインが１５時と言うことも有ってアラモアナセンターのラウンジを利用させて頂きました。ラウンジ担当の方も大変感じよく言葉の不自由も全く感じさせられませんでした。次回も是非利用したいですね。オススメです。

I was wondering how one hour would be, but it felt short because it was so much fun. The scenery was also amazing! The guide spoke mostly in English, which was a bit confusing at first, but they were very friendly and had a great vibe, so it wasn't a problem at all.

1時間ってどうなんだろうって思ってましたが
楽しすぎて短く感じました。
景色も最高でした☆
ガイドさんが英語ばかりでちょっとって初めは戸惑ってしまったけどノリがよく全然苦にならないぐらいフレンドリーでした(^^)
