We had a great transportation to and from the boat. The driver was friendly, pleasant, and knowledgeable about the area.I loved being able to snorkel, swim and just be on the platform. There was musical entertainment on the boat, which was nice on the way to and on the way back from the sandbar. The crew made everything fun and made sure that everyone was safe. I would do it again, for sure, and maybe next time I will have the courage to try the stand up paddle board.

I was able to explore under clear skies without encountering any squalls.
I had high expectations for the movie location tour, so I felt it was just okay and wasn't particularly moved. However, I was impressed by the breathtaking views during the jungle exploration tour, especially since I didn't have high expectations for that. It's all about not expecting too much!
スコールにも合わず、晴天の中回れました。
映画のロケ地巡りは期待が大きかったこともあり、まあまあと感じ、感動まではいきませんでしたが、ジャングル探検ツアーは期待していなかった分、絶景に感動しました(笑)
期待し過ぎないことですね。

The evening of our tour wasn't the best as the clouds wouldn't leave the top of Mt. Haleakala. So, we didn't see the sunset nor the stars. Yoshi did take us to to other locations as we descended Haleakala and FINALLY the stars could be seen. We viewed the heavenlies for at least 30 minutes if not more. What fun!! And Yoshi provided us with coats and blankets to keep us warm. The donuts and hot coffee and tea was appreciated as well. It was a fun evening.

After the reception, you watch a Japanese safety video, and then it's time to start horseback riding. The horses are incredibly smart, so even beginners can ride with confidence. They will first teach you how to stop, start, and turn left and right, but since the horses are intelligent, they will walk and stop on their own without much input from you. Once you start, you won't get off the horse, and you'll ride in a line for a solid two hours or more through the great outdoors. The horses are equipped with bags where you can store drinks, so it's possible to drink while riding. Additionally, taking photos with your smartphone is allowed, so you can capture the beautiful natural scenery while riding. In Japan, you can't have such a long horseback riding experience, so I'm really glad I participated.
受付後、日本語の注意事項映像を見たら、乗馬してスタートです。馬はすごい賢いので、素人でも安心して乗馬できます。止まり方、スタートの仕方、左右方向への方向転換は最初に教えてくれますが、馬が賢いので、こちらが操作しなくても、歩いたり、止まったりしてくれます。スタートしたら、馬から降りることはなく、一列になってひたすら大自然の中を、みっちり2時間+α、乗馬し続けます。飲み物等を入れれる袋を馬に装備しているため、乗馬しながら、飲み物を飲むことは可能です。また、スマホでの写真撮影はOKのため、乗馬しながら大自然の風景を撮影することができます。日本では、こんなに長い時間、馬に乗る経験はできないため、参加して本当に良かったと思います。

Mantas can be seen in other countries as well, but the encounter rate on the Big Island of Hawaii is overwhelmingly high, so I definitely recommend experiencing it. During the session I participated in, several large mantas swam right in front of me, providing a truly valuable experience. The Japanese-speaking guide was very attentive, making it a reassuring tour.
For those who will be participating:
- The boat will speed towards the destination for a while, and it can be quite bumpy. If you're worried about seasickness, it's recommended to take motion sickness medication before joining.
- It gets chilly after coming out of the water. Bringing a large towel can be useful as it can also serve as a wrap.
- Since it's a popular tour, seats can fill up quickly, so it's advisable to keep your belongings to a minimum (if you don't want to place them on the floor). A waterproof bag is recommended as a lot of seawater comes into the boat.
- There is only one Japanese-speaking guide, and of course, they won't be able to provide individual attention to everyone. Especially for beginners in snorkeling, it's safer to familiarize yourself with how to wear the snorkel, how to fit it, how to put on a wetsuit, and how to enter the water beforehand.
マンタは他の国でも見られるそうですが、ハワイ島での遭遇率は圧倒的に高いそうなので、ぜひ体験することをお勧めします。私が参加した回も、大きなマンタが何匹も目の前でくるくると回ってくれて、とても貴重な体験をすることができました。
日本語対応ガイドさんもきめ細やかに対応してくださって、安心できるツアーでした。
これから参加する方に向けて
・爆速のボートをしばらく走らせて目的地に向かいます。かなり揺れます。船酔いが心配な方は酔い止めを服用してから参加するのがおすすめです。
・海から出た後は冷えます。大きなタオルを持参すると羽織にもなるので良いと思います。
・人気なツアーで席が埋まることも多いそうなので、荷物は最小限がおすすめです(床に置きたくなければ)。海水が船内にかなり入ってくるので、防水対応の袋に入れると安心と思います。
・日本語ガイドさんは一名で、もちろん自分たちだけにつきっきりでケアしてくれるわけではありません。特にシュノーケリング初心者の方はシュノーケルの装着方法や合わせ方、ウェットスーツの着方や海への入り方等々、事前に知識を入れられるものは入れてから望んだ方が安心です。
Aloha En,
Thank you for participating in the Manta University. I apologize for the delay in my response since the tour date. It truly is a rare experience to see wild mantas up close on the Big Island. I also appreciate your comments regarding the Japanese guide. Thank you for sharing valuable information about motion sickness medication, cold weather measures, waterproofing, and snorkeling. We hope you will come back to re-enroll in the Dolphin School the next time you are in Hawaii! Our crew is looking forward to welcoming you back. Mahalo nui and A hui hou!
アロハ えぬ様。マンタ大学に参加していただき、ありがとうございました。ツアー参加日から時間が経っての返信に関してお詫び申しげます。ハワイ島で野生のマンタを近くで見ることはとても貴重な体験になりますよね。日本語ガイドに関するコメントもありがとうございます。また、酔い止めや、寒さ対策、防水対応、シュノーケルに関するとても有益な情報をコメントしていただき、大変感謝いたします。またハワイにいらっしゃる機会には、ぜひイルカの学校へ再入学しに来てくださいね!クルー一同心よりお待ちしております。Mahalo nui and A hui hou!

The most perfect day ever. Captain Robin was beyond amazing and hannah was so lovely. The whole experience was a 10/10 it was my favorite day on the trip. I was with a party of 6 and the attention to making sure we all had a great time was so amazing. The snorkel was so ethereal we saw so many turtles and fishes. The sandbar activities were so fun. Would recommend to everyone !!

Driving the buggy can be a bit nerve-wracking at first, but you'll get used to it if you keep at it. I had so much fun driving for over two hours! You can enjoy a different side of Hawaii compared to Waikiki.
After the buggy ride, the lunch break before getting on the bus is short, so you should either order right away as soon as the activity ends or stick to something simple like a sandwich, otherwise, you won't have time to eat due to the high number of participants.
バギーの運転は最初不安があるものの、続けていれば慣れます。二時間以上運転してとにかく楽しかった!ワイキキとは違うハワイを満喫できます。
バギーの後、バスに乗る前のランチの時間が短いので、アクティビティが終了次第すぐに注文するか、サンドウィッチなど簡単なもので済ますかしないと、利用者が多いので食事をする時間がなくなります。

I participated in a tour of Manoa Falls✌️
It wasn't just a trek; we learned about the plants along the way, found wild avocados, and touched a mahogany tree. I never knew the surface of a mahogany trunk, which becomes high-end furniture, looked like that (I won't say, so go touch it yourself).
Our guides, Jason and Tomomi, were amazing✨
We had lunch while overlooking Waikiki from Tantalus Hill.
The tuna sandwich from the popular spot, Andy's, was exquisite.
It's such a great deal since you can eat without waiting in line‼️
The view from the hilltop was fantastic, with Diamond Head on the left, the high-rise buildings of Waikiki in the center, and to the right, you could see from Honolulu Airport to Pearl Harbor, as Tomomi said, "half of Oahu Island."
The weather was perfect today, and we could even see Molokai Island faintly in the distance️.
It was a tour where you can feel nature close to Honolulu.
マノア滝のツアーに参加✌️
ただのトレッキングではなく、道沿いの植物の話や野生のアボカドを見つけたり、マホガニーの木に触ったり。高級家具になるマホガニーの幹の表面があんなだったなんて(言いませんよ さわりに行ってください)
ジェイソンさんとともみさんのガイド最高でした✨
タンタラスの丘でワイキキを眺めながら、昼食。
人気店Andysのツナサンドは絶品
お店に並ばずに食べられるんですからお得感満載です‼️
丘の展望台からの眺めは素晴らしく、左手にダイアモンドヘッド、中央にワイキキの高層ビル群、右手にホノルル空港からパールハーバーと、ともみさんいわく「オワフ島の半分が見える」ものでした。
今日は天気も最高で、遠くモロカイ島までうっすら見えました️
ホノルル近場で自然を感じられるツアーでした
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the experience of touching and learning about various plants during the Manoa Falls hiking tour. I will definitely pass this on to Jason and Tomomi. It's also great to know that you enjoyed the popular Andy's sandwiches while taking in the stunning views from Tantalus. We sincerely look forward to your participation in our tours again the next time you visit Hawaii!

It was a fun experience to fully enjoy nature! However, the guide only spoke English, so I couldn't understand anything and couldn't enjoy it to the fullest. Although the sand dust flew around and made my face completely black, it was an experience that you can't have in Japan to ride through while looking at the sea and mountains on a buggy.
