Hawaii
The waves were high, but we were able to see whales multiple times, which was amazing. The crew also provided explanations in English throughout the trip and frequently checked in on the drink service, allowing us to have a wonderful time.
波は高かったのですが何回もクジラが見られて最高でした。また船のクルーの人も説明(英語)をずっとしていたり、ドリンクサービスもこまめに聞いてくれて、楽しいひとときを過ごせました。
It was my daughter’s first time whale watching and I felt it was a great experience for my little one. We were able to see a couple of whales from far away, but since it was not during the peak whale watching season, we couldn’t get the full whale watching experience. I would love to come again during the peak season around February, which is what I heard is when there is the most whale activity. Other than that the view was great and I would recommend whale watching to anyone who haven’t experienced it yet. The water may be a little choppy at times so I would recommend people taking motion sickness medication for people who might be sensitive to motion sickness.
I was able to see wild dolphins for the first time. Since we wore jackets with buoyancy aids, some people may get seasick. Unfortunately, my wife felt unwell and had to get out partway through.
野生のイルカを初めて見ることができました。浮き袋付きのジャケットを着用するので、人によっては酔いやすいです。妻は気分が悪くなり残念ながら途中で上がらざるを得ませんでした。
Aloha!! calo0413,
Thank you for participating in the prestigious Dolphin University tour. We are all very pleased that you were able to experience something that is hard to find in Japan. There are also manta tours available on the Big Island that you won't find on Oahu, so we look forward to your next participation.

The guide's explanations and enthusiasm were very reassuring, and while the whales were far away, we were able to see them multiple times while overlooking Maui. The rainbow added even more color to the watching experience! Although the weather was occasionally bad and cold, it turned out to be a fun whale watching trip. Thank you! 😊
ガイドの方の説明や盛り上げてくれる姿はとてもたのもしく、マウイ島を一望しながらクジラも遠くだったけど何回も見る事ができ、レインボーも更にwatchingを彩ってくれました!時々天候が悪くて寒かったですが、楽しいホエールウォッチングとなりました、ありがとうございます(^^)
I spent about 20,000 yen on a package that included an underwater scooter, stand-up paddleboarding, and snorkeling, but on the day of the activity, it was windy and cold, so I couldn't properly do stand-up paddleboarding. I waited for about an hour, shivering in a bikini in the freezing cold, before doing the underwater scooter. The underwater scooter was really great! Fish and sea turtles came close, and I was able to take some nice photos and videos. However, the photos and videos cost an additional 80 dollars.
Although it was advertised as including snorkeling, it seems that it was canceled because it was too cold. Considering I paid 25,000 yen for half a day, I was disappointed with the experience. I think it would have been different if it had been during the warm summer months. Anyway, it was so cold that I couldn't help but wonder if I really paid for this experience... What I want to say is that the price was high for what we got. (laughs)
水中スクーターとスタンドアップパドル、シュノーケリングのパックで約2万円だしたのですが、当日風が強いし寒いしでまともにスタンドアップパドルはできませんでした。極寒の中ビキニでガクガク震えながら1時間ほど迎えを待ち、水中スクーターをやりました。水中スクーターはとっても良かったです!魚もウミガメも寄ってきていい写真、動画を撮っていただきました。しかし、写真や動画は別料金で80ドル。
シュノーケリング付きと言っていたのにシュノーケリングは寒いと言っていたからか無くなりました。半日でチップ込みで25000円払ったと思うと内容は残念でした。
きっと夏の暖かい時期だったらまた違ったのかなと思います。とにかく寒く、こんな思いするためにお金払ったのかと思ってしまいました、、、何を言いたいのかと言うと、内容のわりに値段が高いと言うことです。(笑)
The ride was too bumpy as there were many waves. We were able to spot only 1 manta ray. Too expensive for 45 min bumpy ride and the whole experience.
We appreciate you taking your time to review your manta snorkel and are sorry to hear you did not enjoy the tour. It is true, some nights are better than others; ocean conditions, weather and the amount of rays seen on any given night is out of our control. What we can control we aim to do our best with the conditions we are presented with.

Sea Paradise
My 6-year-old son was interested in deep-sea fish, so this submarine was the main attraction for our trip to Hawaii. It dives to about 300 meters below the sea. We were able to see many fish at various points, although it wasn't completely natural; it felt like there were artificial habitats created, which was part of research by the University of Hawaii.
Towards the end, we apparently encountered a whale, but we only caught a glimpse of its shadow from inside the submarine. The guide was quite excited and announced it, but since we were still underwater, it seemed to have passed above us. If we had been surfaced, we might have seen it.
I thought I didn't get motion sickness easily, but I ended up feeling quite nauseous on the return high-speed boat. The submarine doesn't have a restroom, but the high-speed boat does. I managed to avoid the worst-case scenario, but I recommend taking motion sickness medication for anyone who might be concerned. The guide mentioned that the waves were quite calm that day, so I think it would have been tough on a day with regular waves. Just for your reference.
6歳の息子が深海魚に興味を持っていたので、今回のハワイ旅はこの潜水艦がメインでした。
海底300m程まで潜水します。
魚などは要所要所で沢山見られました。全くの自然というわけではなく、それなりの住処を人工的に作っているという感じでしたが、それもハワイ大学の研究の一環ということでした。
終盤はクジラに遭遇したらしいですが、ニアミスで艦内からチラリと影が見えただけでした。ガイドさんもかなり興奮してアナウンスしてくれたのですが、まだ海中にいたので頭上を行ったようです。
浮上していれば見えたかもしれませんね。
私はあまり乗り物酔いはしない方だと思っていましたが、この日は帰りの高速艇でかなり酔ってしまいました。
潜水艦にトイレはありませんが、行き帰りの高速艇にはあります。
何とか最悪の事態は回避できましたが、少しでも心配のある方は酔い止めの服用をお勧めします。
この日はかなり波も穏やかだとガイドさんも言っていたので、普通に波がある日だと厳しかったと思います。ご参考までに。
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。
Our 10am whale watching cruise was cancelled but we were accommodated on an other cruise for 10:30am. This one included snorkeling. So it was a big win for us. We did get to see a few whales and dolphins. The crew was amazing. They were friendly and informative. They took the time to chat with us. They gave us some background on the whales and clear instructions before getting in the water for snorkeling. They were very attentive and ready to help everyone during the snorkeling. This was an awesome tour. I would definitely book this tour again and recommend it.
The best experience ever! The crew were very professional and nice and I don’t swim but they were so kind in helping me and guiding me through this amazing experience! In addition they gave complimentary equipment that you can borrow to snorkel freely! If you want an amazing adventure, this is one of them!
At 5:55 AM, we were picked up from various hotels in the dim light. About 30 people participated. We went snorkeling at a relatively calm spot about an hour west using the highway from Waikiki. However, on that day, a cold wave hit Oahu, making it feel like early autumn in Japan, so we paid $10 to wear wetsuits. Thanks to that, I wasn't cold while in the water, but returning to the boat, I was hit by the wind and felt quite chilly.
We sang a song to thank the sea god of Hawaii and prayed for safety, then it was time for our first dive! Everyone headed to the point where wild spinner dolphins were likely resting. The four instructors found the dolphins and shouted, "Swim towards the mountains!" Everyone submerged their faces in the water to search. About ten dolphins swam gracefully beneath us. It was breathtaking!
After returning to the boat and taking a short break, we tried for our second dive! Once again, a group of dolphins passed below us. It was brief, but I got to swim alongside a dolphin about five meters away.
Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any sea turtles or whales, but it was a valuable experience.
*The rating isn't great because this tour requires you to swim actively. In winter, the waves can make you prone to seasickness, and although the website mentioned that "the second floor of the boat is recommended for easier dolphin watching," we were on a regular snorkeling boat with only one level, which swayed a lot due to the waves and wind. Since it was a monitor tour, we had an early morning departure, but if it had been during the day, it might have been warmer and more enjoyable. I don't think I'll participate again.
早朝5:55 薄暗い中 各ホテルピックアップ。
約30名近くが参加。
ワイキキから高速道路を利用して西に約1時間の比較的波静かな場所でのシュノーケリングです。
しかし、当日はオワフ島にも寒波が来ており、日本でいうと初秋のような肌寒さがあり、10ドルを支払いウエットスーツを着用。
おかげさまで、海に入っている時は寒くはありませんでしたが 船に戻ると風をまともに受け、震えるほど寒かったです。
ハワイに伝わる海の神様に感謝と安全をお祈りする歌を歌い、いざ、1本目海へダイブ!
野生のハシナガイルカが休憩しているだろうポイントへ皆でGO!
インストラクター4名が、イルカのいる場所を見つけ「山の方向へ泳げー!」との声に 皆一斉に海面に顔を浸け捜索。
約10匹ほどのイルカが私たちの下を悠々と泳いでいました。
感動です!
その後、船に戻りしばし休憩後、2本目にトライ!
またまた下の方にイルカの群れが通過。
一瞬でしたが5m程先のイルカと一緒に泳げました。
あいにく、ウミガメやクジラには出会えませんでしたが、貴重な体験をしました。
※評価が良くないのは、ガッツリ自分で泳がないとダメなツアー。
冬の時期は、波があるので船酔いをしやすい点と、HPでは「イルカウォッチングをするならボートの2階が発見しやすくておすすめ。」との記載があり申込みましたが、1階しかない普通のシュノーケリングボートなので波と風を受け、とても揺れます。
モニターツアーなので早朝出発でしたが、日中出発ならもう少し暖かくて楽しめていたかもしれません。
次は参加しないと思います。

The experience was definitely worth the time and cost. Picture taking left a bit to be desired, problem with reflection through the portals...wished we could have seen more sea life...may have just been the Tim of the year.
The narrative was well done.
I'm really glad I participated; it was truly a worthwhile optional tour. I joined with my wife's parents, and I felt a bit anxious on the bus ride to the boat since most of the participants were in their twenties. However, thanks to the consistently kind staff, I realized my worries were unnecessary. I was a bit disappointed to hear during the trip that swimming with dolphins in Hawaii is not allowed (I hadn't gathered this information beforehand), but when we actually spotted dolphins and entered the water, I was able to fully enjoy watching many dolphins swimming gracefully below me. I was very satisfied. The boat was large (it seemed to accommodate over 30 people), and it was comfortable with little rocking. From the moment we spotted the dolphins to the dive, we were guided in an orderly manner without any rush, so I think it's a tour that's reassuring even for beginners.
参加して良かった、本当にそう思えるオプショナルツアーでした。妻の両親と一緒に参加したのですが、参加者が20代で占めている状況に乗船までのバス内では一抹の不安がありました。しかし、終始親切なスタッフの皆様のお陰で無用な心配だと実感できました。ハワイは海中に潜ってイルカと泳ぐのは不可だと道中に聞かされ(事前に情報入手していなかったこともあり)少し残念でしたが、実際にイルカを見つけて海に入ったときには、たくさんのイルカが眼下で気持ち良さそうにゆっくり泳いでいるのを思う存分に愉しむことができたので、大満足でした。船は(30人以上乗船できそうな)大きな船で、揺れも少なく快適でした。イルカ発見からダイブするまでも、慌てることなく順番に案内してもらえたので、初心者でも安心なツアーだと思います。

crew on the tour were professional and courteous right from the start. We were all anxious to see whales and our boat got right out there and we started seeing whale spouts. The boat was always on top of where the whales were. Through out the entire ride, the captain was incredibly knowledgeable and answered all questions. The boat itself was well stocked and very clean. There were plenty of tables inside and on top, as well as seats on the front and back. Everyone had a place to sit and could see the action from anywhere on the boat. The end of the tour was the most incredible. Two whales swam literally under the boat and came out in front of the bow. Seeing how big these amazing creatures were so close was a once in a life time experience. Both whales came up for air at the front of the boat. The whales seemed as curious about us as we were about them, and hung out around our boat for a good fifteen minutes. I highly recommend this tour and their company for an incredible whale watching tour!! The experience is excellent for couples and families with children of all ages. My one bit of advice would be to show up twenty five minutes before check in as it was very busy and took some time to find a parking spot.
I was really moved when I got to see the last one up close after seeing it about three times! I participated with my mother and only had my phone, but I was satisfied with the videos I captured! If I had to say something, I wish I could have seen the jumps from closer up, so I gave it four stars. Also, since snacks and drinks are paid, it's better to bring something with you.
It took about 20 minutes to get there by rental car from the hotel, and there was a large public parking lot near the port, which was convenient! I also recommend exploring the town of Lahaina right after it ends.
3回くらい見えたうちの最後の1回がとても近くで見れて感動しました!私は母と参加して携帯しかなかったのですが十分動画におさめられて満足です!強いて言えばジャンプをもっと近くで見たかったな〜という感じなので星4つにしました。あと軽食も飲み物も有料なので何か持って行ったほうが良いです。
ホテルから20分くらいでレンタカーで行きましたが港の近くに広い公共の駐車場があったので便利でした!お昼におわってそのままラハイナの街を散策するのもお勧めです。
My little family of 3, husband and my 3 month old, went on this whale watching excursion and it was the highlight of our trip! I was very excited to find out that infants are welcome aboard. The entire crew was very informative, fun, and did everything they could to help the everyone spot some whales. We were so lucky to cruise with hundreds of spinner dolphins right below us. We even got close enough to spot a whale even though we were told it was early in the season. O would recommend bringing binoculars if you have some and a jacket because it definitely gets chilly and windy out there. Thank you to the entire crew for making my dream of seeing the whales come true!
The number of sharks is definitely impressive. The experience is thrilling. However, since we went quite far out, I got seasick before we reached the point. Once we arrived, we had to wait our turn to see the sharks in groups, and I got even more nauseous during that time. Being in the cage, exposed to the waves while watching the sharks, made me feel even sicker. On the way back, I could hardly sit up and ended up collapsing on the boat. I had taken motion sickness medication, but it didn’t seem to help with the seasickness. Those who are prone to motion sickness should be cautious. Unfortunately, due to my own body’s reaction, the outcome was disappointing, but there were no faults in the tour itself, so I give it 4 stars.
サメの数はまちがいないです。すごい迫力です。
ただしかなり沖まで行くので、ポイントに着くまでに酔いました。
ポイントについたらグループごとに順番に見るため、待っている間にさらに酔いました。
ケージに入って沖の波にさらされながらサメを見てさらに酔いました。
帰りは起き上がることすら困難で船の上で倒れてました。
酔い止めは飲んでいましたが、船酔い海酔いには効かなかったようです…
もともと酔いやすい方は注意が必要です。
自分の体質で残念な結果ですが、ツアー内容としては落ち度はないので☆4つです。
The should have better explained the process. An example would have been better. Also, they should have been more encouraging to those who were uneasy in the water and refunded part of the cost if someone was unable to participate, especially since the water was very rough and it was raining.
Swimming with dolphins was amazing! I was moved to see a pod of dolphins swimming right below me! I was also glad to meet a sea turtle while snorkeling! The crew members were all fun, and we enjoyed dancing the hula together.
イルカと泳げて最高‼️真下にイルカの群れが泳いでいて感動でした‼️シュノーケルでは海ガメにも会えて良かったです‼️クルーの皆さんも楽しい方ばかりで皆でフラを踊ったり楽しかったです(^O^)

I was worried that the weather might be bad, but although the waves were a bit high, there were clear skies and I was glad to see dolphins.
I wished that the rental fee for the wetsuits was included, and the life vests were too thin, which made me feel uneasy. Plus, they were moldy and dirty...
I think the guide was very energetic and nice, but they kept talking on the bus, and I couldn't sleep at all when I wanted to.
I found it a bit inappropriate when they asked personal questions and insisted on going into the sea again when an older person said they were done. They also took someone who was feeling seasick out into the water, saying it would help.
I understand the intention to make everyone enjoy themselves, but I felt there was a lack of delicacy.
I was told there would be a lot of fish while snorkeling, but there were hardly any. If that was the case, I would have liked to dive with the dolphins one more time.
天気が悪いかもと心配していましたが、少し波は高かったけれど晴れ間もあり、イルカも見られて良かったです。
ウェットスーツ貸し出しは料金に含んでいてほしかったのと、ライフベストが薄っぺらすぎて不安でした。しかもカビてて汚かった…
ガイドさんはとても元気でいいと思いますが、バスの中で喋り続けていて寝ようと思っていたのに一睡もできなかった。。
プライベートな質問をズカズカとしたり、年配の方が2回目海に入るのはもういいかな、と言っているのに、せっかく来たんだから!とか、船酔いで体調が悪い人に、海に入れば治る!と連れ出したりするのはどうかと思います。
楽しんでもらいたいという気持ちは分かりますが。
デリカシーがないと感じました。
シュノーケルでは魚がたくさんいると言われましたがほとんどいませんでした。それならイルカもう1回ダイブしたかったです。

I was able to swim with dolphins, and at the very end, I even saw a manatee! Feeling satisfied and a bit tired while returning to land, we danced on the boat to the music from Moana: The Legend of the Sea! It was quite moving.
いるかと泳ぐ事もできて、最後の最後でホヌも見れました!満足して少し疲れながら陸へ帰るときに、モアナと伝説の海を流しながら船の上でダンス!これがなかなか感動的でした。

Guides were great. Hard to see through glass, though.
There were dolphins right in front of me!
First, they explained about the dolphins, how to swim, and details about Hawaii before heading into the ocean.
It was truly beautiful, and there were many sea turtles and fish!
Participating was the best. There was a professional photographer, so they took a lot of pictures.
One downside was that I got seasick. I usually don’t get seasick, but maybe because I wasn't used to it, I started to feel unwell. There were others who got seasick too, so motion sickness medication is a must.
本当に目の前にイルカがいました!
最初にイルカのことや、泳ぎ方、ハワイのことを詳しく説明してくれて、いざ海へ。
本当にきれいで、ウミガメや魚もたくさんいます!!
参加して最高でした。写真もプロのカメラマンがいるので、たくさん撮影してくれます。
1つ難点が、波酔いをしてしまった点。あまり酔うことはない私ですが、慣れないせいか、気分が悪くなってしまいました。私以外にも酔っていた人がいたので、酔い止めは必須です。
Thank you for your kind words, Tommy. All of our staff are very happy to hear that. Hawaii has many wonderful sights and beautiful beaches, so when you come back to Hawaii, please be sure to come and visit Dolphin Sensei. We are sincerely looking forward to the day we can meet again. Thank you for participating in the tour this time.

I was captivated by the incredibly beautiful sea and decided to participate for the second time. Compared to last year, the experience has leveled up, with Japanese-speaking staff available. There were more underwater scooters, allowing several people to ride at once, and wet suits were provided for cold weather protection. The staff were very kind and took great care of us, even holding our hands underwater. However, when riding the scooter, my hair got wet, and the resulting photos made me look a bit different, but since they are great memories, I decided to purchase them. If possible, I would love to try again for a third time!
あまりに綺麗な海に魅せられて2度目の参加を決めました。
去年に比べてレベルアップされていて、日本語を話すスタッフがいて
水中スクーターが増え1度に数人が乗れ、寒さ対策のウエットスーツも用意されていました。
スタッフの方々はとても親切で水中でも手を取って丁寧に対応して頂きました。
ただスクーターに乗る時,髪がぬれてしまい出来上がった写真が~~ちょっと
別人になりますが、良い記念なので購入しました。
出来れば3度目も挑戦したいです!
I had an experience that I can't have in Japan. I was able to touch dolphins, and the local staff took photos for us (there is a fee for purchasing the photos). I wanted to take pictures with my own camera, but unfortunately, that wasn't possible. The staff also filmed the experience, so you can purchase a DVD as well. I would love to participate in this tour again!
日本ではできない体験が出来ました。
イルカに触れる事ができ写真も現地のスタッフさんが撮ってくれました。(写真購入代が要ります。)
自分のカメラで撮りたかったのですがそれはできなかったのが残念・・・。
ビデオ撮影もスタッフさんがしていたのでDVDを購入する事も出来ます。
またこのツアーに参加したいと思います!
This was my first time in Hawaii, and I participated because I really wanted to see dolphins. Although we had an early meeting time at 5:30 AM, our guide kept us engaged with various stories on the bus, which helped shake off the sleepiness and gradually built up my excitement.
The wind was strong and the waves were high that day, so it was uncertain whether we would see dolphins. However, thanks to the legendary captain's intuition, we soon encountered a pod of dozens of dolphins. The moment I jumped into the water and looked down, I saw a school of dolphins swimming, and that feeling of awe is something I will never forget.
After that, we encountered another pod and were able to meet dolphins a second time. I also got to take many wonderful photos, and I was extremely satisfied!
I was completely satisfied with everything. Thank you!
今回は初めてのハワイで、是非イルカに会いたいと思い参加しました。
朝5:30集合の早い時間でしたが、ガイドさんがバスの中で終始いろいろなお話をしていただき、眠気が覚めると同時に徐々に気持ちも期待も高ぶってきました。
この日は風が強く波もあったため、イルカに会えるか微妙な感じでしたが、伝説の船長の勘!?で早々にイルカ数十頭の群れに遭遇することができました。
海に飛び込みすぐに下を見た瞬間、数十頭のイルカの群れが泳いでおり、そのときの感動は今でも忘れられません。
その後、さらにもう一度群れに遭遇し、二度イルカに出会えることができました。
たくさん素晴らしい写真も撮っていただき大満足です!
全てにおいて大満足でしました。ありがとうございました!

We are a family of 4 with a infant. Snorkeling was not an option but we wanted to see marine life. The boat was great, captain took the boat out gently; no turbulence, baby was happy. We got to see dolphins, turtles and schools of fish
I was able to swim with dolphins and see sea turtles. It was the best memory. The guide, captain, and crew were all very interesting and kind, which made me feel safe and enjoy the experience. After swimming, we also had lunch on the boat. I definitely want to use this service again! Thank you very much.
イルカと一緒に泳ぐことが出来、ウミガメも見れました。最高の思い出です。ガイドさん始め、キャプテンやクルーの方々がとてもおもしろく優しい方で安心して楽しむことが出来ました。泳いだあとは船の上でランチも食べました♪またぜひ利用したいです!ありがとうございました。
Aloha!! Moheli,
Thank you for participating in the private Dolphin Middle School tour. We are all very happy that you were able to experience something that is hard to come by in Japan. There are also manta tours available on the Big Island that you won't find on Oahu, so we look forward to your next participation.
Mahalo!!
