ハワイ水中スクーター　泳げなくてもOK！シーボブで海底散歩＆シュノーケリングクルーズ

It was incredibly fun. 最高に楽しかったです。

Reviewed by: チキチキ

The highlight of this trip to Hawaii was definitely this experience. The explanations were easy to understand, and it became a wonderful memory. While waiting for our turn to use the scooter, we enjoyed feeding fish from the boat and had the freedom to go snorkeling, making the wait enjoyable. The videos and photos turned out beautifully, creating the best memories.

今回のハワイ旅行の1番の楽しみでした。
説明もわかりやすく、とてもいい思い出になりました。スクーターの順番待ちの間は、ボートから魚にエサをあげたりシュノーケリングが自由に出来たりと、待ち時間も楽しく過ごせました。
動画&写真も綺麗にとれていて最高の思い出となりました。

イルカ中学　野生のイルカ＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ！＜少人数制／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可／日本語／ランチ付き＞

It was fun! 楽しかった～♪

Reviewed by: 6kiyo6

My daughter, who loves the ocean, wanted to participate in a snorkeling experience with dolphins! I read reviews and didn't expect much when they said you swim with dolphins, as I thought they would just pass by below while snorkeling. However, I was amazed because I saw them clearly three times when I jumped in! They swam close to the boat, and I could also see them jumping in the distance, which was great! We were lucky to spot something that looked like a whale on the way there too!

When I asked my husband, who usually doesn't get very emotional, what he enjoyed the most in Hawaii, he said, "I got a bit tired from swimming, but it was probably the dolphins..." so I think he really enjoyed it. Just keep in mind that even though it's called snorkeling, you have to chase after the dolphins when they come, so it can be tough for those who aren't good swimmers, and if you fall behind, you might miss seeing them. If you can swim normally, you'll be fine. If we get the chance to go back to Hawaii, I would love to join this tour again! (*^^*)

海が大好きな娘の希望でイルカとシュノーケルに参加しました！
口コミを見てイルカと泳ぐ・・・と言ってもシュノーケルしてる下の方をイルカが一瞬で通り過ぎるだけそれほど期待してはいなかったけど３度飛び込んで３度とも見えたし下の方でしたがはっきり見えたので感動でした！
ボートのそばを泳いでくらたり遠くではジャンプする姿も見え良かったです♪
行く途中で鯨らしき物も見えたのでラッキーでした！
普段あまり感動しない旦那さんに『ハワイで何が一番楽しかった？』と聞いたら『泳ぐのにちょっと疲れたけどイルカかな・・・』と言っていたのでよほど楽しかったと思います。
ただシュノーケルと言ってもイルカが来たら追いかけるように着いていかなければいけないので泳ぎの得意ではない人は大変だし遅れると見えない事もあります。
ふつうに泳げるなら大丈夫です。
もしまたハワイに行けることがあれば参加したいツアーです。(*^^*)

野生のイルカウォッチング＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　ジャンボスライダーやSUPも楽しめる！＜ランチ付き／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎／日本語または英語ガイド＞

Overall satisfied ★ But is there one more step? おおむね満足★でもあと一歩？

Reviewed by: man

This was my first time in Hawaii for our honeymoon. My husband wanted to go snorkeling, so we chose this tour where we could swim with dolphins and enjoy snorkeling as well.

First, we were given flowers and had a touching moment of prayer together as we faced the sea. The main dolphin watching part was a bit intense; as soon as we arrived at the spot, we had to jump into the cold water without any warm-up or getting used to it, which made me a bit worried about having a heart attack! The experience of swimming with dolphins was different from what I imagined; instead of leisurely swimming alongside them, it felt more like a hurried attempt to catch a glimpse of the dolphins swimming below us while snorkeling. Since the dolphins are wild animals, it wasn't the relaxing experience I had hoped for.

The dolphin watching was over in an instant, and since some people didn't get to see them, we had a total of two watching sessions, but it felt like we were only in the water for about five minutes, which honestly left me wanting more. After that, we returned to the boat, but it was quite cold with the sea breeze, making it really uncomfortable until we reached the next snorkeling spot. I highly recommend wearing a thick hoodie and bringing a large towel.

The snorkeling afterward was satisfying because we got to see sea turtles up close, which was different from the main dolphin watching. However, the snorkeling time was relatively short, and it felt like it was over before we knew it. It wasn't a leisurely experience but more of a quick taste of it. After returning to the boat, we had a lunch that was labeled as BBQ, which turned out to be cheeseburgers. I had seen reviews about this beforehand, so I was prepared, but those expecting a BBQ might feel a bit misled. The taste was good, though.

Afterward, we enjoyed dancing the hula and taking photos, which was fun. However, in the covered area at the back, the deck leading to the second floor obstructed the view, and there was a noticeable difference in enthusiasm between the guests in front and those behind. Since we were seated at the back, I think some adjustments could be made for better visibility for everyone.

▼ Points of Concern
- The BBQ was misleading since I had an image of grilled meat; the cheeseburger label could cause confusion.
- Water was leaking from the air conditioning in the shuttle bus, soaking some guests.
- The photo data was quite expensive.
- The small boat made it feel like we had to be considerate of others during the move, and depending on the seat, the stairs blocked the view and sound of staff explanations and dances.
- There were no napkins or tissues provided for wiping hands after eating burgers and chips, which made things a bit difficult and the seats tended to get dirty.
- There was little consideration for those feeling cold or seasick; it would have been nice to have some towels or something prepared.

▼ Positive Aspects
- The moment of throwing flowers during the prayer was romantic.
- We got to see sea turtles up close.
- The music on the boat was lively.
- The temporary tattoo stickers were a nice touch.

For those who have participated in other tours or are of a more mature age, you might notice some issues with the facilities, timing, and service. If this were a monitor tour price, I would be satisfied, but at the regular price, I would like to see a bit more in terms of quality and time allocation.

I may have been a bit critical, but I’m really glad I was able to participate.

ハネムーンで初のハワイでした。旦那さんがシュノーケリングをしたいとの事で、イルカと泳げてシュノーケルも楽しめるこちらのツアーにしました。
まずお花を配られて海に向かって皆でのお祈りの時間は感動しました♪
メインのイルカウォッチングは、イルカがいる地点に着くと「今からすぐ行くよ！」という感じでそれまで一切準備運動や水に触れる事なくイキナリ冷たい海に飛び込まないといけないので、ちょっと心臓発作にならないか心配になりました；
メインのイルカと泳ぐツアーは少し想像と違っていて、イルカと泳ぐというよりはシュノーケルで真下を泳ぐイルカを急いで見る！みたいな少しせわしないものでした笑
イルカは野生で自然の生き物ですから、ゆっくり横で見れる～という感じではないのでもともとの私のイメージが少し期待しすぎたかもしれません＾＾；
イルカウォッチングは一瞬で終わってしまい、見れない方がいたので合計2回のウォッチングとなりましたが、海にいたのはものの5分程度？と思う程短かったので1回だけでは正直かなり物足りなかった気がします。。
その後船に戻りましたが、海風もあってかなり寒く……。次のシュノーケルの地点まで本当に寒くてツライ位でした；
参加される方はしっかり厚手のパーカと大き目のバスタオルは必須です。

その後のシュノーケリングは、メインのイルカウォッチングと違って海ガメを近くで見ながら泳ぐ事が出来て満足です♪
ただ、こちらもシュノーケルの時間が割と短く、もう終わりか～という感じでした。
ゆっくり楽しんだ！という時間ではなく、ちょっと体験！みたいな時間ですね。
船に戻ってからは、ＢＢＱという名のチーズバーガーの昼食時間。
ＢＢＱの件は事前に口コミを見ていたので、了承済みですがＢＢＱと思って参加される方は「これだけ？」となると思いますので少し過大表記しすぎかと…。
味はおいしいです。

その後は帰りまでフラを踊ったり、写真を撮ったりと盛り上げてくれるのは楽しかったです。
が、奥の屋根付きの所だと二階へのデッキが邪魔で全然見えず、前の客と後の客の温度差が…笑
こちらも奥の座席だったのでちょっと、もう少し皆がみやすい様に工夫が必要かと思います。

▼気になった点
・ＢＢＱは、焼き肉のイメージを持つのでチーズバーガーという表記が誤解がないのでは？
・送迎バスのクーラーから水が漏れていて、お客さんにすごい水掛かっていた
・写真データがあまりに高い
・小ぶりの船で、移動には他の人に気を使う感じだったのと、席によっては階段が邪魔でスタッフの説明やダンスなどが見えない＆聞こえない
・ハンバーガーやポテトチップスを食べるが手をふくものやティッシュもなく（数人に配ったら途中でなくなっちゃった、ごめんね～という感じ）ちょっと大変＆席が汚れがち
・さむがっている人や酔っている人には特に配慮がない（数枚でもタオルや何か用意していてもいいかな）

▼よかった点
・お祈りの時間で花を投げたのがロマンチック
・海ガメが近くで見れた
・海での音楽で盛り上がった
・タトゥーシールがちょっとうれしい

他のツアーなどに参加された経験のある方や割と大人の年齢の方だと設備面や時間、対応などが少し目につく所があると思います。モニターツアーでの価格なら納得♪ですが、正規の料金だともう少し充実度（時間の幅取り）がほしいかなと思います。

少し辛口でしたが、参加できたことはすごく良かったです。

イルカ中学　野生のイルカ＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ！＜少人数制／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可／日本語／ランチ付き＞

They searched for the dolphins without giving up until the end. 最後まで諦めずにイルカを探してくれました

Reviewed by: yoriyori

I was so excited about my first trip to Hawaii that I forgot to call the dolphin desk after arriving at the hotel, but I managed to get in touch the night before and was able to join the tour without any issues.

The meeting time was 6 AM. It was still dark, with the sun not yet risen, when we were picked up by a bright yellow bus. I was quite sleepy and thought I would take a nap on the way, but the student council president (the guide) gave a detailed and entertaining explanation about the port we were heading to, the types of dolphins we might see, important notes, and equipment, all while incorporating some impersonations. As a result, I didn’t get a second of sleep during the approximately one-hour ride to the port.

We boarded a high-speed boat to search for dolphins, and it was so much fun! The boat sped along just above the water's surface, bouncing over large waves, making me forget for a moment that we were searching for dolphins. We got splashed with water, so it was cold regardless of the water temperature. I rented a wetsuit for $10, so I didn’t feel the chill, but my husband, without a wetsuit, seemed to be quite cold.

The boat went all the way from Waianae to beyond Ko Olina, but we didn’t find any dolphins. We returned to Waianae, but still no dolphins. The student council president's face started to look more and more worried. As the tour was nearing its end without anyone having entered the water, and just when everyone was starting to give up, the student council president made a surprising suggestion.

After checking the participants' plans, and since no one was in a hurry to return, we decided to continue searching for dolphins! This time, we headed north to Makua Beach. There, we found dolphins! We immediately jumped into the water and were able to swim with seven dolphins.

After that, we enjoyed snorkeling with sea turtles at another spot before returning to the port, where we were taken back to the hotel. We arrived an hour later than scheduled, but I was really glad to have been able to swim with the dolphins.

In a typical tour, I think it would have ended with, "We didn’t see any this time. It can’t be helped since they are wild dolphins." But Dolphin Middle School was different.

I am truly grateful to the student council president and the crew for not giving up and continuing to search for dolphins until the end.

初めてのハワイ旅行にすっかり舞い上がり、ホテル到着後イルカデスクに電話連絡することを忘れてしまいましたが、前日の夜に連絡をとることができ、無事ツアーに参加できました。
集合は朝6時。まだ朝日も昇っておらず暗い中、鮮やかな黄色いバスでピックアップ。かなり眠たかったので、行きのバスで仮眠を…と思っていましたが、生徒会長（＝ガイドさん）より、これから行く港の場所や、見られるイルカの種類、諸注意、装備につい等々、モノマネを交えながら面白く細かく説明されるため、港に到着するまでの約１時間、寝る時間は１秒もありませんでした。

港から高速船に乗ってイルカを探すのですが、この船が楽しい！海面スレスレをビュンビュン飛ばして進み、大波を越える時は大きくバウンドして、イルカを探していることを一瞬忘れます。水しぶきを浴びながら進むので、水温に関係なく寒いです。私は＄１０でウェットスーツを借りていたので感じませんでしたが、ウェットスーツなしの主人はかなり寒かったようです。

船はワイアナエからコオリナの先まで進みましたが、イルカ発見ならず。ワイアナエまで戻るも、やはりイルカはいない。生徒会長の顔もだんだん曇ってきます。一度も海に入ることなくツアー終了の時間が近づき、誰もが諦めかけたとき、生徒会長からの意外な提案が。
ツアー参加者にこの後の予定を確認し、特に急いで帰りたい人がいなかったため、イルカ探しを続行することに！今度は北へ船を進ませマクアビーチへ。そこでイルカ発見！すぐさま海へ入り、７頭のイルカと一緒に泳ぐことができました。
その後、別のポイントでウミガメとシュノーケリングを楽しんでから帰港し、ホテルへと送迎してもらいました。予定より１時間も遅れての到着となりましたが、イルカと一緒に泳ぐことができたので本当に良かったです。

普通のツアーなら「今回は見られませんでした。野生のイルカだから仕方ないですね。」で終了だと思いますが、イルカ中学は違いました。

最後まで諦めずにイルカを探してくれた生徒会長やクルーの皆さんに感謝、感謝です。

A big thanks to the captain and crew of the Trilogy for providing our family with a fantastic sail and snorkle! The crew was competent and experienced while maintaining a relaxed and friendly atmosphere aboard the sleek vessel. The cruise did not dissapoint with nice meals special order to meet my gluten free dietry needs. The snorkling stops were just long enough to enjoy with plenty of time to relish some traditional sail time as the captain hoisted the billowing sails over the catamaran. Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy world class snorkling on beautifully clear aquamarine waters under the azure Pacific skies.

I was able to swim with wild dolphins. It was an early morning tour with mostly shy Japanese participants, but the staff worked hard to keep the energy up, thank you! While meeting the dolphins was important, I think just experiencing the breathtaking beauty of the West Coast, which I rarely get to visit, made the tour worthwhile. By the way, the cheeseburger was delicious; I wanted to say, "I'll have another!"

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ ＜朝・昼食付／現地集合＞

The transparency is truly exceptional. 透明度はやはり格別

Reviewed by: cica

I participated because I wanted to experience the clarity of the ocean for my first time in Maui. I have a tendency to get seasick, but I thought it would be worth it to join since I heard the boat was of a decent size. However, it turned out to be a bad idea for me. The rocking wasn't too severe, but I think those who are prone to seasickness should avoid it.

Despite that, I did my best to go snorkeling. There weren't as many fish as I expected, but the clarity of the water was outstanding, and it felt great. Unfortunately, I couldn't see any sea turtles at the spot where we were supposed to encounter them.

The water was quite cold, so I recommend renting a wetsuit. Both breakfast and lunch were very delicious. I took my lunch to go, but I think the hamburgers would have been really enjoyable to eat on the boat if I hadn't been seasick.

Above all, the Japanese guide was very attentive and friendly. I won't participate again due to my seasickness (laughs), but I'm glad I joined despite that. I would give it one star less for the lack of fish.

初めてのマウイ島のため海の透明度を体感したくて参加しました。
元々船酔いする体質ですが、それなりの大きさの船と聞いていたので、一生に一度くらいはと思って参加しましたが、やはりダメでした。揺れはあまり大きくないのですが、船酔いする体質の方はやはり避けたほうがいいと思います。
それでもがんばってシュノーケリングはしました。
思ったよりも魚はいませんでしたが、やはり透明度は最高で、気持ち良かったです。ウメガメに会えるというスポットでも今回は残念ながら会う事はできませんでした。
けっこう水が冷たいのでウェットスーツはレンタルする事をオススメします。
朝食、昼食もとても美味しかったです。昼食は持ち帰って食べましたが、船酔いさえしていなければ船の上で食べるハンバーガーはとても美味しくて気持ち良かったのではないかと思います。
なにより日本語ガイドの方がずっと気にかけて頂いて、とても感じの良いガイドさんでした。
船酔いするのでもう参加する事はありませんが(笑)、船酔いしてでも参加して良かったです。
魚の少なさに星マイナス1つです。

BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

SO AWESOME, only wish it was longer

Reviewed by: Jon and Jeanne

Holy cow, if you can afford this, DO IT! Up close and personal with the fishes--you can pet them and everything. There is a food thingey attached to each sub scooter, so that's why they are coming right up to you, it's awesome.
Lots of turtles in the water too--we had one swim right next to us! Afterward, when on the boat, several others swam close around us.
The divers were all great guys to work with. Very good at their job, and very nice to everyone. A great crew. They also take photos and video of you with the sea life while you are down there--you can purchase these afterward. Plan on it--$50 for both photos and video. They are great, and you can't get as good with your own camera (at least I don't see how you would).
I also preferred this to snorkeling, because of being deeper in the water, the view is much different, yet there are no worries about breathing or anything--it's the awesomeness of being in a bubble! Absolutely fantastic adventure. Highly recommend.

野生のイルカウォッチング＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　ジャンボスライダーやSUPも楽しめる！＜ランチ付き／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎／日本語または英語ガイド＞

I'm satisfied with the well-planned tour. よく練られたツアーで満足です

Reviewed by: なおまり

We were picked up at 5 AM, and after an 8-hour tour, we arrived at the hotel around 1:30 PM. The program was well-structured, and we had a very fulfilling time. It became a wonderful memory, and I highly recommend it.

First, we were greeted by the bus, where a cheerful Japanese crew member and a beautiful foreign photographer explained the day's itinerary. They also offered us the chance to purchase a USB with photos for $60. It wasn't a hard sell, so you could decline, and since I brought my underwater digital camera, I opted out. However, it seemed that quite a few people ended up purchasing it. Those who bought the USB received a wristband and were prioritized for photos, but the crew also took plenty of pictures of those who didn't buy it, so the USB was filled with photos of other participants. This was a bit embarrassing for those who didn't purchase it, and I wish they would reconsider that practice. By the way, the crew also took photos with my own underwater camera while on the boat. Wet suits are available for rent at $10, and you can get a refund if you don't end up wearing it, which is a nice system. I didn't rent one and just wore a long-sleeve rash guard on top. It was October, but it wasn't cold.

Onboard, the cheerful crew provided great hospitality, allowing everyone to enjoy a fun atmosphere. While cruising, we admired the mountains of West Oahu, spotted rainbows, and found dolphins that jumped in one after another. The water was quite deep and there were waves, but we followed the crew closely and were able to see many dolphins. It was a wonderful experience to see wild dolphins swimming freely in the coral reef waters. There were dozens of dolphins, swimming in groups of 5 to 10, and they came close to us repeatedly.

I felt satisfied when we returned to the boat, but a few people were seasick. I took anti-nausea medication before boarding, but even those who usually don’t get seasick might find it essential. For those prone to seasickness, sitting on the open deck of the boat seems to be a better option. At this time, we were given pineapple.

After that, we enjoyed three hula dance performances (the professional hula dancer was cute and wonderful), and we snorkeled for just under an hour at the turtle spot. We saw three sea turtles and many fish, making it a very enjoyable snorkeling experience. You can also kayak and slide into the sea from the boat. It was a return to childhood fun. Later, we had cheeseburgers (with purple taro buns) and Maui chips while enjoying the fantastic views from the boat. The burger was delicious against the backdrop of the beautiful scenery. Finally, we took a group photo with the crew and all participants, which they sent to us for free via email. By the way, water and lemonade were available for unlimited drinks on the boat.

Perhaps due to the large number of participants, there was no announcement for the hula lesson.

After getting off the boat, we went to the port's restroom (which is spacious and clean), and I recommend changing there quickly.

Overall, the tour was well-structured, and we got to see both dolphins and sea turtles perfectly. It was a highly satisfying experience, and I would love to participate again.

朝5時台にお迎え、ホテルについたのは13時半ごろの8時間長のツアーでしたが、よく練られたプログラム構成で、とても充実した時間でした。素晴らしい思い出となりました。お勧めします。
まず、バスのお迎えがあり、日本人クルーの元気なお姉さんと美人な外国人のカメラマンさんが車中、本日の行程について説明してくれ、写真が入ったＵＳＢ（60ドル）を購入するか、案内があります。決して押し売りではないので断ることもできますし、私は水中デジカメを持参したので断りましたが、かなりの人が購入しているようでした。ＵＳＢを購入する人はリストバンドをもらい、重点的に撮ってもらえるシステムのようですが、購入しない私たちの写真もバシバシ撮っていたので、ＵＳＢにはほかの参加者の写真が満載です。。これは、特に購入しないものにとっては、恥ずかしいし、やめてほしいと思いました。ちなみに船上では持参の水中デジカメでも、クルー自ら写真を撮ってくれました。ウエットスーツは10ドルでレンタルできますし、借りたけど実際に着なければ返金されるとのことで親切なシステムでした。私は借りずに上のみ長袖ラッシュガードを来ていました。10月でしたが寒くはなかったです。
船上では陽気なクルーがホスピタリティーをもってもてなしてくれ、みんなで楽しい気分で時間を過ごすことができました。クルージングをしながら西オアフの山々を眺め、虹をみつけ、イルカがみつかり、次々に飛び込みます。かなり深いですし、波もありますが、ここは必死でクルーについていき、たくさんのイルカをみることができました。サンゴ礁の海の中で自由に泳いでいる野生のイルカをみるのは、なんとも素敵な体験でした。イルカは数十頭いて、5-10頭で固まって泳いでいて、次々に近くにきました。
満足した気分で船にあがりましたが、何人かが船酔い・波酔いではいてました。私も吐き気止めを飲んで乗船しましたが、普段酔わない人でも、吐き気止めは必須かと思います。また、酔いやすい人は、船の中でもオープンな甲板に座るほうがよさそうです。このタイミングでパイナップルをもらいました。
その後、3曲フラダンスを踊ってくれ（プロのフラダンサーの女の子でかわいくて素敵でした）、ウミガメスポットで1時間弱シュノーケルしました。ウミガメは3匹、魚もたくさんいて、とても楽しいシュノーケルでした。また、カヤックや滑り台（船の上から海にとびこみます）もできます。童心にかえり、遊びました。その後、船上でチーズバーガー（タロイモの紫のパンズ）とマウイチップスを食べました。船上の素晴らしい景色を見ながらのバーガーはとてもおいしかったです。最後にクルーと参加者全員で写真をとり、これはメールで無料で送ってくれます。ちなみに船上では水とレモネードが飲み放題です。
参加者が多かったからか、フラレッスンは案内がありませんでした。
　船からおりたら港のトイレ（ひろくてきれいです）にいきますが、ここでササっと着替えることをお勧めします。
上記の流れになりますが、よく練られた構成で、イルカもウミガメもばっちり見えましたり、大満足のツアーでした。ぜひもう一度参加したいです。

I had a valuable experience! 貴重な体験ができました！

Reviewed by: サクラサク

It was my first submarine tour, and the interior wasn't too cramped, plus the windows were large, so we had a great time. My elementary school daughter was also very excited and happy.

They mentioned a commemorative Atlantis Dive Log (dive record) as a gift, but we were just directed to the exit and didn't receive it. I wonder if I should have said something. (I did receive information about Atlantis Submarine, but I wonder if this counts as a boarding memento?)

初めての潜水艦ツアーでしたが、艦内はそれほど狭くもなく窓も大きく楽しく過ごせました。
小学生の娘も大興奮で喜んでいました。

搭乗記念のアトランティス・ダイブログ（潜水記録）をプレゼント!…とありましたが、そのままお帰り口へ案内され、いただけませんでした。
言わないとだめだったんでしょうか。
(アトランティスサブマリンのご案内はもらったのですが、これが搭乗記念になるのかな？)

冬季限定！ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ＜12～4月／英語ガイド／ラハイナ港発＞

The whales are amazing and moving. 鯨すごい感動

Reviewed by: hal

The whales were huge, and I was very moved. Before boarding, there was a bit of trouble, and I managed to get on the boat after some back-and-forth in my broken Japanese English. While driving around the island, I saw them jump and spout from a distance several times, but seeing them up close from the boat was a completely different level of excitement.

クジラは大きくて、とても感動しました。乗船前にちょっとしたトラブルがあり、拙いジャパニーズ英語で押し問答して何とか乗れました。島をドライブ中、何度も遠目にですがジャンプや潮吹きを見ていたのですが、やはり船上から近くで見るのとは全然迫力が違いました。

イルカ大学　イルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカと泳ぐプランも！マリンアクティビティも充実＜ランチ付き／日本語／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可＞

It was amazing! 最高でした！

Reviewed by: t.c

I had a hard time finding them and searched by boat, but I'm glad I was able to reach the westernmost sea! When we saw them, they were swimming quickly, so we couldn't watch for long, but we were able to see the dolphins up close and even heard their ultrasonic conversations, which was amazing! The staff and guides were also very lively, making it a truly enjoyable memory! When I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to enroll again!

なかなか出会えず船で探しましたが、最西端の海にいけたのでよかったです！
私たちがみたときは泳ぐスピードが速くて長くは見れませんでしたが、イルカも近くで見れて超音波の会話？まで聞こえて感動しました！
スタッフ、ガイドさんもノリがよくとても楽しい思い出になりました！
またハワイに行ったときは必ずまた入学したいです！

It became my best memory in Hawaii! ハワイで1番の思い出になりました！

Reviewed by: hrm

My husband and I participated in the tour.

Due to the large number of participants, we departed in two groups, but it turned out to be very lucky for us to be in a smaller group!

The explanations were incredibly thorough, and I don't think there are many tours in Japan that provide such detailed information.

The staff were all friendly and created a wonderful atmosphere (^_^).

When we finally saw dolphins, it was truly moving! Although they were a bit far away, seeing a pod of dozens of them was breathtaking! It was thanks to the captain and the staff's keen eyes (T ^ T).

And miraculously, we spotted a whale! It disappeared in an instant, but I believe it was a miracle to see one at this time of year.

The most thrilling moment was swimming with sea turtles, which had been a dream of mine! Being able to see them up close and having several appear was absolutely amazing! I'm already hooked.

I am filled with gratitude for all the staff! Thank you very much. I believe this tour is worth more than the price.

主人と利用させていただきました。
1便が人数が多いため２便での出発になりましたが、少人数で逆にとてもラッキーでした！

説明が本当に丁寧で、日本でもここまで説明してくれるツアーはそうないと思います。

スタッフの皆さんも和気あいあいでとてもいい雰囲気でした(^_^)

念願のイルカを見れた時は本当に感動！！
少し遠かったですが、数十頭の群れをなす姿は圧巻
でした！
船長やスタッフさんの千里眼のおかけです(T ^ T)

そして、奇跡的にクジラの姿を目撃しました！
一瞬でいなくなってしまいましたが、この時期に見れたのは奇跡だと思います。


そして1番の感激は 夢だった海ガメと泳げたこと！
あんなに間近で見られて、何頭も現れてくれて本当に最高でした！
もうやみつきです。

全てスタッフさんのおかげで、感謝でいっぱいです！
ありがとうございます。
お値段以上のツアーだと思います。

イルカ中学　野生のイルカ＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ！＜少人数制／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可／日本語／ランチ付き＞

Disappointed ガッカリ

Reviewed by: ヒロミ

I signed up with my two daughters. We didn't see any dolphins at all... I understand it's wild, but I was really looking forward to it, so it was very disappointing. We did manage to spot a sea turtle from the moving boat, but they didn't slow down for us, and there was no explanation from the guide! As for the light snack? Just one piece of cheese and a paper cup of tea! We had brought our own bottled drinks!

I heard we could retry for half price, but spending nearly 70,000 yen for the three of us to see dolphins... Everyone's spirits dropped, and it turned into a very quiet tour. I regret not signing up for a different tour.

娘達と3人で申し込みました。
イルカには全然会えず……野生なのでしょうがないのでしょうが楽しみにしていただけにとても残念でした。しかも海ガメは走っているボートから自力でなんとか見つけ見ることができましたがスピードを落としてくれるわけでもないし ガイドさんからの説明もなし！軽食？……チーズ1本、紙コップ1杯のお茶！自分達はしっかりペットボトルを持ち込んで飲んでいました！
半額でリトライできるとの事でしたが3人でイルカを見るために7万近いお金は……
皆テンションガタ落ちですごーく静かなツアーとなりました。他のツアーに申し込めば良かったと後悔してます。

【冬季限定！1/3～3/21】ホエールウォッチ　スターオブホノルル号　1500名乗船可能なハワイ最大のクルーズ船！軽食＆ドリンク付き＜ワイキキ送迎可＞

Surprise and excitement 驚きと興奮

Reviewed by: YASU

My wife and I participated together. We joined without much expectation, but a humpback whale jumped right in front of us!! It was so exciting to see the tail slapping the surface of the water, and the dynamic jumps called breaching using its pectoral fins, just like we often see on TV!! How can you not be thrilled by this!!! The staff also said, "very very lucky!!" and were excited. It was a great tour.

妻と二人で参加しました。そんなに期待せずに参加しましたが、ザトウクジラが目の前でジャンプしました！！テレビでよく見る尾びれで海面をたたく、胸びれを使ってブリーチングと呼ばれるダイナミックなジャンプまで！！これが興奮せずに居られますか！！！スタッフさんも「very very lucky !!」と言って興奮してました。良いツアーでした。

It's okay to go alone! 1人でも大丈夫！

Reviewed by: まいちぇる

I participated alone while everyone else was in groups, but I never felt lonely at all. I was able to enjoy myself, focusing solely on the dolphins and sea turtles. I was very satisfied to not only see the dolphins but also hear their voices, and I got to see the sea turtle professor as well. I want to participate again!

女子1人での参加で他はみなさん複数人で参加でしたが、1人で寂しい思いをする事は全くなく、イルカとウミガメの事だけを考えて楽しく過ごせました。実際イルカはもちろん、イルカの声も聞けて、ウミガメ教授も見る事ができて大満足でした。
また参加したい！

マンタ大学夜学部　野生のマンタ＆ナイトシュノーケリングツアー ＜送迎可／日本語スタッフ乗船日あり＞

Encountered wild manta rays! 野生のマンタと遭遇！

Reviewed by: とんとん

We gathered at the meeting point in the evening! The location provided after checking into the hotel was a bit unclear, and I ended up being slightly late. However, when I contacted the tour company, they responded kindly.

Upon arriving at the meeting point, I met the staff and other participants of the tour for the first time. There were not only Japanese people but also participants from overseas, and we chatted as we set off on the boat. I was excited to hear from the staff that if we spotted a manta ray for the first time and took a picture, we could name it!

Surprisingly, as we moved quickly, we witnessed a large sun setting over the ocean! While enjoying drinks, we gradually approached the sun as it sank into the sea, and we were able to take our time watching the sunset and capturing photos from the boat.

After it got dark, we all entered the water and encountered manta rays! I was able to swim closely with a large manta ray! I took pictures of the manta ray with my digital camera. On the way back, we enjoyed light snacks and had fun chatting with the staff and other participants, savoring the experience of the manta rays. It was a wonderful experience unique to the Big Island that I couldn't have in my daily life!!!

夕方に現地に集合！ホテルチェックイン後に連絡した際に教えてもらった集合場所がややわかりにくく、迷い集合時間を少し過ぎてしまいました。しかし、ツアー会社へ連絡すると、丁寧に対応していただきました。

現地へ集合すると、スタッフの方、一緒にツアーに行く人と初対面しました。日本人だけではなく、海外の方も参加しており、いろいろ話をしながら、船で出発しました。スタッフさんから、はじめてマンタを
見つけ写真を撮ると名前をつけることができるという話を聞きながらわくわくして向かいました！

意外にも早いスピードの中、進んで行くと、大きな太陽が海に沈むところ！ドリンクを飲みながら、徐々に海に近付いていく太陽、船の上でじっくり日の入を見て、写真を撮ったりすることができました。
その後は暗くなってから、みんなで海に入り、マンタと遭遇！大きいマンタとじっくり泳ぐことができました！持参したデシタルカメラで、マンタの
写真を撮ることができました。帰りは軽食をいただき、マンタの余韻を残しながらスタッフの方やツアーに参加してる他の方たちと楽しく話して帰りました。
日常ではできない、ハワイ島ならではの楽しい経験ができました！！！

Dolphin University, Committed to the Wild 野生にこだわるイルカ大学

Reviewed by: ありんこ

This time, I participated in an activity at the prestigious Dolphin University for the first time. I had never experienced snorkeling before, so I was anxious about keeping up with everyone, but thanks to the fun instructors' guidance, I was able to see wild spinner dolphins right from the start. Since they were wild, I learned various things, such as the cute sounds of the dolphins, the scars they have from surviving in nature (like from battles with sharks), and how the pods move.

However, not everyone was able to observe the spinner dolphins, so we tried multiple times, and finally, on the third attempt, everyone succeeded. I had signed up for stand-up paddleboarding because I wanted to experience it, but due to time constraints, we were unable to do it. I was quite disappointed about that. However, I felt a strong sense of unity with my classmates as we all aimed for success, which was very moving.

During snorkeling, I was able to see many fish, but the guide was feeding them with bread or something, so if we were focused on wild dolphins and wild sea turtles, I wish they had also emphasized keeping it wild in that aspect. Nevertheless, the tour at the prestigious Dolphin University was overall very enjoyable, and I was able to encounter the dolphins I was aiming for, so I am very satisfied.

今回、初めて名門イルカ大学さんのアクティビティーに参加させて頂きました。私は、今までシュノーケリングなどを経験したことがなかったので、周りついていけるか不安でしたが、楽しいインストラクターの方々の誘導により、一発目から野生のスピナードルフィンをみることができました。野生だったので、可愛いイルカの声や、自然界を生き抜いていることによる傷跡(サメ等と戦った後)、そして群れがどのように動いていくのか等と、様々なことを知ることができました。
ただ、全員がスピナードルフィンを観測できたわけではなかったので、何度もトライをし、ついに三回目で全員成功となりました。
スタンドアップパドルを体験したく、こちらの名門イルカ大学さんに申し込みを入れましたが、時間がおした関係で、スタンドアップパドルをする事ができなくなってしまいました。今回、その点はとても残念でした。しかし、クラスメイト全員で成功をさせよう！という団結力も久しぶりに味わい、なんだかとっても感動いたしました。

また、シュノーケリングの際にはたくさんのお魚をみる事が出来ましたが、ガイドの方がパン？か何かで魚に餌付けをしていたので、野生のイルカや野生のウミガメなどにこだわっていたのならば、
そこも野生にこだわって欲しかったなぁと思います。
ですが、今回の名門イルカ大学さんのツアーは
全体的にとても楽しく、目当てのイルカにもしっかりと遭遇する事が出来たため、
とても満足しています。
