It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: Rainbow

Overall, I had a fun time and created great memories. Although I felt a sense of discomfort with the guide, Sue (a Japanese), who spoke in a somewhat intimidating tone and exaggerated stories to satisfy the participants, I was reassured by the local staff who constantly checked on everyone’s condition during snorkeling. We saw several groups of dolphins swimming beneath us (according to Sue, there were more than 50 in a pod, but it seemed exaggerated...), and we observed dolphins jumping and playing up close from the boat. I felt like I managed to chase after a turtle, but the tropical fish in the water were beautiful and breathtaking.

I hadn’t put my face in the water for over 15 years and was worried, but thanks to the wetsuit, I wasn’t cold, and the water felt warm and pleasant.

The hamburger for lunch was clearly made from the cheapest frozen meat and bread, but perhaps because I was hungry and surrounded by stunning scenery on the boat, it tasted good.

I would like to try this again.

全体的に楽しく思い出が作れました。敬語が喋れないのか、ガイドのスーさん(日本人）の威圧的な喋り口調の日本語と、「皆さんラッキーですね、こんな事滅多に無いんですよ」と参加者を満足させるための誇張した話にずっと違和感を感じていたものの、現地スタッフはスノーケリング中、常に参加者の状態を気遣っていて安心しました。イルカは何匹かの群が自分たちの下を通り（スーさん曰く50匹以上の群れだったそうですが、誇張されてたような…）、船上では飛び跳ねたり遊んでるイルカを間近で観察しました。亀は頑張って追いかけて見れた感じでしたが、海水の中はトロピカルフィッシュが美しく感動的でした。
15年以上水に顔をつけたことがなく心配していたものの、スウェットスーツのおかげで寒くなく、水の中は暖かくて気持ち良かったです。
昼食のハンバーガーは、ハッキリ言って明らかに一番安い冷凍肉とパンをBBQしたものでしたが、お腹が減っていたのと絶景に囲まれた船上で食べたからか、美味しかったです。

またチャレンジしたいと思います。

Luxury Ko Olina Sunset Cruise with Snorkeling, Dinner Buffet & Premium Cocktails - Ocean Joy Cruises

A must do!

Reviewed by: Sang Park

We came here on our honeymoon and we had an awesome experience with Ocean Joy Cruises. We scheduled for the shuttle service and the bus was right on time to pick us up from our hotel. There was a little traffic to Ko-Olina but wasn't too bad. The bus driver kindly guided us through the entire ride and it was comfortable. The cruise staff were friendly and generous. They provided everyone with ginger pills to avoid motion sickness. Snorkeling was great too. Too bad that we didn't get to see the turtles but it was fun! The food wasn't fancy or anything but it was delicious and that first sip of an icy cold beer after snorkeling was heavenly. While we were having dinner, we got to see the group of dolphins swimming right next to our cruise which was phenomenal. The sunset, of course, it was breathtaking moment. My husband and I really enjoyed the cruise and we will definitely come back with our family in the future.

trust me to try this experience

Reviewed by: han lee

first of all, people working on the boat was awesome, they were very very friendly, especially guy name mason was funny and very active and he was there every moment when we needed him
the boat was not too big and luckily we only had less than twenty people so a lot of room normally around forty people on the board. I suggest to take a pill before you go on because it really help you not to through up.
snorkeling was fun experience and they teach you everything you need to know and fun part was when you go into the water they feed the fish so the fish can come to you I'm talking about a lot of fish and it was so amazing and beautiful when can I get to see that many of fish.
after snorkeling it's cold right but this boat has warm water so you can take salt water out in warm water, that was pretty good idea for help from cold and windy weather.
the boat had every drink you could think of like from hot coffee to cold soda to alcohol beverage and people working on the boat took turn to be a bartender and they actually make good tasty drinks but just let you know that alcohol is only served after snorkeling.
I gotta talk and tell you about the food. it's most delicious Hawaiian pork bbq burger and charcoal grilled chicken was so so good and fresh Hawaiian fruits was one of my favorite
during the diner time captain called out to come out and we went out and guess what?!! dolphins were swimming by, not just one couple of Dolphins
it was my first time watching Dolphins swimming around and that was amazing time.
captain was very generous he didn't want us to miss every moment so he was keep looking out and around the ocean if anything it might be interesting for us.
overall this was the best experience for us and I truly and definitely recommend to try, love to go on the board and meet them again.

3-Hour Ko Olina Snorkel Cruise & Dolphin Watching Tour with Deli Lunch & Drinks

Nice afternoon out on the catamaran

Reviewed by: Mary Butler

We took the afternoon dolphin watch cruise that set sail at 1pm. Saw some sea turtles and a dolphin pod from afar. The snorkelling was nothing great...lots of reef fishes and mostly dead coral. Being prone to motion sickness, I was elated at how wonderfully stable the catamaran was, and for once I actually enjoyed sailing instead of spending half my time being sick over the rails. In spite of my disappointment at not seeing dolphins up close, the afternoon turned out to be a really pleasant cruise along the beautiful Ko Olina coastline. The staff were attentive and friendly. My 3 year son threw a fit when I got him out of the choppy waters during the snorkelling session. Kudos to the staff who successfully quietened him down by giving him bread to feed the fishes from the back of the ship. Food was great. Pulled pork sandwiches, chips and fruit salad were delicious. All in all, a lovely afternoon.

We, the older participants among the young people and couples, were my husband, who was joining for the first time, and me, who had participated before. We were eagerly wishing to meet dolphins. Last time, we were tired from swimming and the visibility wasn't great, so this time we had high expectations! Many dolphins and turtles came to see us. Swimming with them was the best! I was so happy! However, there were too many people on the boat, so I wished for a bit more space.

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Good trip; dependent on ocean conditions

Reviewed by: Allison

I took this trip on my own. The staff were very friendly and personable and laid back. The catamaran was quite large and fit everyone comfortably. Unfortunately, the water was quite silty and therefore the visibility was poor. I saw a couple of turtles and a few fish, but overall the snorkeling portion of the trip was disappointing. It sounds like from other reviews it is not always this way, so I may have just been unlucky. After snorkeling, we sailed around, which was fun. Subway subs were provided for lunch; however there were no vegetarian friendly subs - I would recommend for the future that this option be made available.

Overall, the trip was good but would have been much better had the visibility been better.

Reviewed by: shell

We had such a great time both on the boat and in the water.
The food was great and staff members were all super nice and sweet.
I really appreciate it!

The only one bad thing for me was that I didn't remember/they didn't know how much it cost. I reserved this tour through the internet in advance like 10 days ago and payed with my credit card. Since my friends(there were 5 of us) tried to pay me by cash at the day of the tour but the voucher didn't mention about the price, I asked at the front how much they charged on my credit card. And the lady checked my name on the list and PC and said it's $485. I thought it's a little more inexpensive than I thought, so I asked her to double check and she said it's correct. So we just split the bill. But I found that they charged $695, which was the correct amount, after I left hawaii and got back home...Unfortunately all other friends are form other countries, so I gave up getting the difference in the bill from them. :(
I think the total amount should be on the voucher or at least they should have gave me correct info!

Turtle Reef Kayak Tour in Maui - Snorkel with Sea Turtles at Makena Landing & Winter Whale Watching

Disappointed

Reviewed by: Allie

I booked the west side snorkel safari online and was initially booked into the wrong time slot due to a glitch in the system. This wasn't a big deal. They were very helpful in sorting this out and assured me that they were working on fixing the glitch. The morning of the tour however, I took a taxi out to the meeting point only to be told that the trip was canceled due to high winds (it seemed calm to me, but I'm not an experienced ocean kayaker) $55 later I was back where I started. To be fair, they did try to phone me, but I did not have my phone turned on because I was trying to avoid roaming charges. I do not feel that one attempted phone call is sufficient customer service. I would have appreciated an email (this is how I had been communicating with the company from the beginning). I would suggest that anyone booking a similar tour contact the office before you leave in the morning to confirm that it will proceed as scheduled.

Every year I go to Hawaii, but this was my first time sailing off Waikiki. There were about 10 participants that day, and we were the only Japanese. The ride was comfortable without any nausea-inducing swaying. The view of Waikiki from the sea was exceptional. There were quite a few turtles at the snorkeling point, which was enjoyable. However, there were no life jackets, just a floating noodle. They provide snorkeling gear for free, so if you're anxious, it's better to bring your own. The other catamaran tour I considered had life jackets (I noticed since they were at the same point). Drinks and snacks are available for purchase, so I recommend bringing your own water. The staff only spoke English but were friendly and kind. Since it departs from Waikiki Beach, it's easy to join, so I recommend it.

毎年ハワイに行っていながら、初のワイキキ沖セーリング。当日の参加者は10人ほどで日本人は私たちだけ。酔うような揺れもなく快適。沖から見るワイキキの眺めは格別でした。シュノーケルポイントにはカメさんも結構いて楽しめます。ただ・・・ライフジャケット等はなく、英語で「ヌードル」という浮く棒のみ。シュノーケルは無料で貸してくれます。なので、不安な方は持参した方がよいかと。迷ったもう１つのカタマランツアーにはライフジャケットがありました（同じポイントでやっていたのでわかりました）。飲み物、スナックは有料なのでお水等持参がおすすめ。スタッフは英語のみですが感じよく親切。ワイキキビーチ発なので気軽に参加できるのでおすすめです。

The cruise was fun, but... クルーズは楽しかったけれど、、、、、、

Reviewed by: linolino

This tour is an essential activity every time I visit Hawaii. There’s nothing quite like seeing dolphins and swimming with them; it’s so healing. However, this time, for the seventh visit, there were no dolphins... The sea was indeed quite rough, and it wasn’t a situation where the dolphins or turtles could relax.

During the cruising, the staff really tried to lift our spirits more than usual, but it was still disappointing. It seems that the dolphins headed to a completely different location from where they usually are, and the captain mentioned that it would be difficult to chase after them once we received that information due to time constraints. I understand that they are wild animals, and it’s beyond anyone's control, but is it really that difficult to catch information about dolphin movements every day before setting out?

A friend who was seeing dolphins for the first time was also very disappointed, but we agreed that maybe it was a chance to say, "Come back to Hawaii again!"

Next time, we’ll be waiting for you, dolphins!

こちらのツアーは、渡ハの度に欠かせないアクティビティです。イルカを見て一緒の海で泳ぐ、こんなに癒されることはありません。しかし、今回、7回目で初めて、イルカがいない。。。確かに、海はうねりが強く、イルカもカメも落ち着いて休める状況ではありませんでした。
クルージング中は、いつも以上にスタッフが盛り上げてくれましたが、やはり、残念に思いました。朝から、いつもとは全く異なる場所にイルカたちは向かったようで、その情報が入ってから追いかけることは時間的に難しいと、キャプテンから話がありました。自然の生き物ですから、仕方がないことは承知していますが、毎日、イルカの動向の情報をキャッチしてから、船を出すことは難しいのでしょうか？
今回、イルカを見るのが初めての友人も、とても残念がっていましたが、「また、ハワイにおいでよ」と、チャンスをくれたのかもね！と、納得しました。
次は待っててね、イルカさん。

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＞

It depends on the weather... 天候次第な面も・・・

Reviewed by: tarikky

We participated as a couple. Thanks to the care of the Japanese staff member Miho, we had no trouble at all in Maui, where we hardly speak Japanese. The other staff members primarily spoke English, but they were very friendly and considerate, making a genuine effort to ensure we had a good time, which was quite impressive.

On the day of our participation, we were blessed with clear skies, and both snorkeling and snuba at Molokini Island had excellent visibility. I highly recommend snuba, especially for those who have no issues with equalizing while diving.

However, regarding the next point for sea turtle observation, it can be canceled if visibility is insufficient due to weather conditions up to the day before (as mentioned in the description). Unfortunately, we had to miss that part, and we ended up snorkeling at almost the same spot as before.

There were two other groups of Japanese guests besides us, but as expected, we didn't interact much with them. Instead, we became quite friendly with the foreign guests, who were very approachable.

In summary, it was a very enjoyable experience, and above all, the cheeseburger for lunch was exquisite.

夫婦で参加しました。
日本語スタッフのみほさんのケアもあって、日本語のほぼ使えないマウイでも当日困るようなことはまったくないでしょう。
基本みほさん以外のスタッフさんは英語オンリーですが、非常に気さくで、こちらを気遣ってくれますし（仕事なので当然かもしれませんが）こちらを楽しませようと努力してくれているのはかなりの好感が持てます。

参加当日は晴天に恵まれ、モロキニ島でのシュノーケル、スヌーバ共に最高の透明度でした。
とくにスヌーバは潜水時の耳抜きが問題ない方には是非にもとおススメするくらいです。

ただ、モロキニ島の次のポイント（海亀観察ができるらしい）については、前日までの天候次第で透明度が足りなかったりすると中止です。（説明文にもある）
私たちもそちらは残念ながら中止になってしまい、最初とほぼ同じポイントでのシュノーケルタイムになりました。

私たち以外の日本人客はほかに2組ありましたが、当然といえば当然か、そのかたがたとはあまり絡みませんでした。むしろ外国人の方々が非常に気さくで、そちらと仲良くなったくらいです。

総括としては、非常に楽しい思い出になりましたし、なによりお昼のチーズバーガーは絶品です。

I was satisfied that I could go to the western sea, which I couldn't visit on my own, and swim with dolphins. However, the snacks were a bit disappointing. They took a lot of photos, and I thought about purchasing them later, but it was 5,000 yen for email attachment or CD-ROM! They also mentioned that it was a graduation album with about 300 photos of other people included. I didn't really need that many. Everyone else seemed to buy it, though. I would have definitely purchased if they had printed just one photo of the two of us for 20 dollars. Also, the staff's energy was high throughout, so I thought it might be a tour aimed at younger people.

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Shark tour is good, transport not so much

Reviewed by: Annemieke van Heezik

Got caught in the "hang loose" spirit of Hawaii. The activity was booked for transporation at 9.45AM. The day before the activity a message was left at the hotelphone that transport fell through and I had to confirm (before 6PM) new transport time of 5.15AM! Of course I got back at my hotel after 12PM and wasn't able to confirm early pick-up. So I decided to go to the meeting point anyway, but no transport. Office opened at 6AM when I could finally phone in. Service level was low, merely a "No transport, sorry, reschedule please" Since that was not an option for me we had to come up with a solution. After a lot of back and forth (cab will cost you 200 one way!!)I decided to go on a citybus for 2.5 hrs which cost me 2.50 dollars and I made it with an hour to spare. Veltra was very service friendly. They contacted me and booked transport money back right away, without me even asking for it. So lesson learned: No pick-up service for shark tour!
I never even got a sorry from the Shark tour operator and the captain didn't know my name I had become a plus one!
The harbour of the tour itself was a bit dingy at best. The public toilet was filthy with bloodstains and glass bottles, but the boat had no changing option, so you have to use it.
The boat is very nice and the boat ride is awesome (unless you have motion sickness, in that case you will get sick, trust me!)The shark cage is not big, but big enough for the six per group that went in. Pay for the DVD, taking pictures yourself is very hard. The life vest will keep you floating and the ocean slams you into the cagebarrier.
The sharks are amazing and worth every bit of inconvenience. The crew is friendly and knowledgeable. They care for your safety and for the ocean wild life. It's not scary at all. When you get back I recomment getting lunch at Halewa Joe's. Just sit there and review your tour. If you can visit North shore or Turtle beach on your way back. The total tour is highly recommendable (without transport)

I had an amazing day that exceeded my expectations! First of all, our guide, Julie, was truly wonderful and great at getting everyone excited, which raised our spirits even before we saw the dolphins! Unfortunately, there was a boat from a dolphin protection organization that day, so we couldn't swim with the dolphins, but we were still able to see many wild dolphins up close, which was very moving. (I've heard that days when you can't swim with the dolphins are quite rare, so don't worry.) We also got to see a baby dolphin swimming, which was even more touching. After that, we enjoyed snorkeling. You can rent a wetsuit for $10. Even those who can't swim can definitely give it a try. The atmosphere on the boat was fun throughout the day, making it a very fulfilling experience. I will definitely participate again!

予想以上に素晴らしい1日を過ごせました！まずガイドのジュリさんが本当に素敵な方で、盛り上げ上手なのでイルカを見る前からテンションが高まりました！実はこの日、イルカを保護する団体の船？が出ていたのでイルカと一緒に泳ぐことは残念ながら出来なかったのですが、それでも生で野生のイルカを沢山見ることが出来てとても感動しました。（これが理由でイルカと泳げない日はめったにないそうなので安心して下さい）また、赤ちゃんイルカが泳いでるのも見れて、更に感動でした。その後はシュノーケリングを楽しみました。ウェットスーツを10$で借りることが出来ます。泳げない子も全然挑戦できます。船上でも、始終楽しい雰囲気作りをして下さっていたので1日が大変充実していました。また絶対参加します！

Since Japanese was okay, I was able to listen to the explanations properly. It was fun to be able to touch the dolphins up close. The stay at Sea Life Park was a bit long, so I was bored until the return bus.

日本語おっけーだったので、説明もしっかり聞くことができました。イルカがとても近くでさわれたので楽しかったです。
シーライフパークの滞在時間がすこし長かったので、帰りのバスまで退屈でした…
