Oahu
I can't say enough about how amazing this crew is and how much fun we had! The boat is so nice with two different net lounge seating areas at the front with seating space inside the cabin as well. We saw so many dolphins and the crew made everyone feel very comfortable snorkeling. They were also great with pointing out all of the different marine life that they found so we even got to see a couple of sea turtles! I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone looking for a nice day out on the West side!
The water temperature is warm, and a wetsuit is not necessary. My second grader was able to participate with help from the crew. The kindergarten child observed with the captain on the boat. You can't swim with the dolphins as much as you might think. It's best not to have overly high expectations. However, the crew is a lot of fun, and we got to see dolphins, whales, and turtles. The departure event and hula dancing were fantastic! After seeing the dolphins, we were given cereal bars and drinks, which were water. During the meal, cheeseburgers, snacks, and juice boxes were provided. It's best not to have overly high expectations for the food. The boat sways, and many people leave food behind. If you're going to participate, the price is high, but the university program is good. The middle school program doesn't have the high diving kayak slide and only offers snorkeling. It's an experience worth having at least once, as it's something you can't do every day. The entire crew was amazing! Thank you so much to Maki, JB, Kela, and everyone else.
水温は暖かく、ウェットスーツ不要。小2の子はクルーに助けられながら参加できた。幼稚園の子は船長と船で見学。思ったほどイルカと泳げはしない。過度な期待は禁物。でも、クルーは楽しい人たちばかりだし、イルカ鯨亀を見れたし、出航イベント、フラダンス最高!イルカ見てからシリアルバーのお菓子が配られ、飲み物は水。食事の時にチーズバーガーとスナック菓子、パックのジュースが配られる。食事に過度な期待は禁物。船上で揺れるし残す人が多い。参加するなら値段は高いが大学が良い。中学は高飛び込みカヤック滑り台がなくシュノーケルしかない。一度は体験した方が良いほど普段できない体験ができる。クルー全員最高!マキ、JB、ケラなどなど本当にお世話になりました。

I encountered a large pod of dolphins, swam with sea turtles, and was lucky enough to see a whale as well. The staff were friendly, and the captain was fun; it was a wonderful day.
イルカの大群と遭遇、海がめとの帆泳、運よくクジラも見る事が出来ました。

Since it was a weekday and not crowded, I was able to make a reservation the day before without any issues. There was a Japanese staff member at the reception, and even though I arrived quite early, I didn't have to wait long as the instructor was ready. I experienced three zip lines, and it was so much fun that it ended in no time. During the third zip line, I had a race with a family I was with, which made it even more exciting. The instructor was a cheerful female staff member who really got everyone pumped up. Next time, I want to try other activities as well.
平日で空いていた為、前日予約でも即OKでした。受付には日本人スタッフがいて、予約時間よりだいぶ早く着きましたが、インストラクターの準備が出来たとの事であまり待つことなく、体験出来ました。ジップライン3本でしたが、楽しくてあっという間に終わりました。3本目は、一緒の家族と競争して盛り上がりました。インストラクターは明るい女性スタッフで、盛り上げてくれました。次回は、他のメニューも挑戦したいです。

My first time in Hawaii!
My first time at Wet 'n' Wild!
We took a bus from the hotel and arrived in about an hour.
First, we secured our deck chairs! Popular spots fill up quickly, so be careful. We managed to get a spot in front of the pool in the photo!
There are many attractions, but they operate on a rotation, so it's important to check.
Personally, I really enjoyed the Waimea Whirl! You get completely soaked, but it's worth the ride! By the way, I went on it four times!
The Tornado was just as fun as everyone said! If it's not crowded, two people can ride together, but when it gets busy, you ride with four. However, riding with four is actually more fun because you go faster!
The ocean is great, but I also recommend the pool!

初めてのハワイ!
初めてのウェットアンドワイルド!
ホテルからバスに乗って向かいます。
1時間くらいで到着です。
まずは最初にデッキチェアを確保します!
人気の場所は早めに埋まってしまいますので、注意です。
私達は、写真のプールの前をゲット!
アトラクションは、たくさんありますが、交代で動いていたりするので、チェックが必要です。
個人的には、ワイメアワールが楽しかったです!
顔も髪の毛も、びっしょり濡れますが、乗る価値アリです!
ちなみに、4回乗りました!
トルネードも、評判通りの面白さでした!
空いていれば2人でも乗れますが、混んでくると相席で4人で乗ります。
でも、4人で乗った方がスピードが出て面白いです!
海も良いですが、プールもオススメです!
Had a great time, saw momma and baby whales but now tails to shallow to dive. Fun day
We went as a family of four: my husband, grandmother, and our 8-year-old son.
In the morning, we were picked up by a bus from the hotel (Sheraton Waikiki) and arrived in about 30 minutes after getting on the highway.
We chose a plan with unlimited BBQ and drinks, and we also ordered a cabana for our grandmother as an option.
The cabana was located in front of the wave pool, and although she didn't go into the pool, she was happy to watch her grandchildren play from a cool spot.
The BBQ was brought to the cabana, and it was very delicious.
We had a pickup around 3 PM, so our son seemed to want to play a bit more, but I think it was just the right amount of time for the adults.
If we go to Hawaii again, I definitely plan to visit again.
夫婦と祖母、息子(8歳)の4人で行きました。
朝ホテル(シェラトンワイキキ)にバスでお迎えに来てもらい高速に乗って30分くらいで到着しました。
BBQと飲み物は飲み放題のプランで祖母のためにカバナもオプションで頼みました。
カバナは波の出るプールの前で祖母はプールに入らないのですが、プールで遊ぶ孫の姿を涼しいところで見れて喜んでいました。
BBQはカバナまで持ってきてくれて、味もとても美味しかったです。
15時頃に帰りのお迎えなので、息子には少し遊び足りなそうでしたが大人には程よいくらいでよかったかなと思います。
またハワイに行くことがあれば、必ず行くと思います。
I traveled to Hawaii at the end of the year. It was my third time at Wet 'n' Wild, but perhaps due to the Christmas holiday, there was a significant shortage of staff in the park. As a result, the main attractions were not operational. Everyone was concentrated on one ride, leading to considerable wait times. It might be better to avoid this time of year.
年末にハワイ旅行しました。ウェットワイルドは3回目でしたが、年末のクリスマス休暇なのか園内のスタッフの数が圧倒的に不足。そのためメインのアトラクションが稼動せず。ひとつにみんなが集中しているので相当待たされる事態に。この時期は行かない方がいいかもですね。
It's a simple review, but I had a great time.
Coming to Oahu, this is the perfect activity for families with children.
The transportation included is convenient. Since there was no mention of drinks, it's a good idea to bring your own.
かんたんな感想ですが、とても楽しかったです。
オアフ島に来て、子供連れに最適なアクティビティです。
送迎付きが楽でいいです。飲み物は特に何も言われなかったので、持っていくと良いでしょう。
The weather was cloudy, so I wasn't expecting much from the sea, but I was surprised by the clarity of the water, which was clear enough to see the bottom. We were able to see quite a few dolphins. There were about 100 dolphins, and a group of around 20 swam right beneath us, which was amazing. They also provided support for those who couldn't swim, which was reassuring.
There were about 40 people on the experience, and quite a few (about half were Japanese) got seasick. We were fine because we took medication, but by the second half of the activities, half of the Japanese participants were exhausted and resting.
For safety reasons, canoes were accompanied by staff, and the zup was tethered, which was a bit disappointing, but I think it's necessary because the sea can be dangerous.
On the way back, we were able to watch and even dance the hula, which was fun. Since the weather was cloudy, having a jacket or towel during breaks was essential. There were women who were shivering from the cold.
It's definitely better to rent a wetsuit! It helps with the cold, but also protects against jellyfish stings. Even though it wasn't jellyfish season, I unfortunately got stung in several places.
天候は曇りだったので、海期待していなかったですが入ってみたら底が見える程の透明度で驚いた。そしてかなりの数のイルカを見ることができた。
100頭程いての20頭位の群れが自分達の下を泳いでるのには感度しました。
見れない人泳げないに対してのサポートもしてくれたので安心です。
体験には40人程いてかなりの人(日本人5割位)が船酔いしていました。自分達は薬飲んでいたので大丈夫でしたが、後半のアクティビティでは日本人の半数はグッタリして休んでいました。
安全上カヌーはスタッフ同伴、ザップは紐で固定されていて少し残念でしたが、海は怖いので必要だと思います。
帰りにフラダンスも見れたり一緒に踊ったりできて楽しかったです。
天候が曇りだったので、終わった後や休憩中の上着やタオルは必須です。女性で寒くて震えている人もいました。
ウエットスーツは借りたほうが絶対にいいです!寒さ凌げるのもありますが、クラゲに刺されます。クラゲの時期ではないにも関わらず運悪く何ヶ所も刺されました。
I knew that the tour would be conducted in English. However, since the order of the meals was predetermined and it was different from what I expected, I felt a bit flustered. Thanks to the staff's coordination, I was able to have a great time. Thank you very much. I believe this is a tour that many Japanese people would like to participate in, so I think it would be sufficient to write on a paper in Japanese: "1. Those with a red wristband should be the first to get up and go for the salad, meat, etc." "Yellow is second." I believe that by simply showing the translated version, it will help overcome the language barrier and allow everyone, not just Japanese people, to participate.
ツアーは英語で行なわれることは知っていました。ただ食事の順番が決められていたので、その順番が違っていたので、あたふたしましたが、スタッフの連携のおかげで、楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。ありがとうございました。日本人も多く参加したいツアーだと思いますので、紙に日本語で書いて「1.リストバンドの赤の色の人は、1番最初に席を立ち、サラダ、お肉等を取りに行ってください。」「黄色は2番目です」翻訳した分を見せるだけでいいと思います。言語の壁を乗り越えたツアーに日本人だけではないのですが皆が参加できるようになると思います。
I recommend this place if you have small children who might get bored while shopping. There are various attractions, so you won't get tired even after spending a whole day there. There are lockers available, so your belongings will be safe. It might be good to have around $30 and a card. The wave pool is fun, but it can be a bit dangerous for shorter kids. Most attractions require a height of about 125 centimeters. I visited in January, and it wasn't cold as long as it was sunny. Bringing a hoodie or something similar will help you feel comfortable even if it gets chilly.
小さい子供がいて、買い物に飽きたらおすすめします。
いろんなアトラクションがあり1日居ても飽きません。
ロッカーがあるので荷物も大丈夫です。
30ドル位と、カードがあるとよいかもしれません。
波のプールは楽しいですが、身長が小さいと少し危ないです
どのアトラクションも125センチくらいは必要です。
1月に来ましたが、晴れてれば寒くないので大丈夫です。
パーカーなど持っていくと、寒くても安心です。
I participated in mid-January under a cloudy sky. I arrived a little before the 10:30 opening, and the parking lot was available. The baggage check was thorough, and food and drinks were confiscated. There are both small and large lockers, but the small ones are quite small, while the large ones are about the size of a medium locker in Japan. With two adults and two children, we managed to cram in bath towels, changes of clothes, and shoes, barely getting the door to close. I think it's best to bring as little luggage as possible. The large locker was $18 and allowed for unlimited access. You set the locker key number and make the payment using a machine. It was reassuring to have staff who spoke Japanese nearby. Changing clothes is done in the changing room inside the restroom.
The park isn't very large, but as indicated by the availability of parking, there weren't many people. It was disappointing that the lazy river was closed all day, but the slides were enjoyable with no waiting. For those who aren't fond of slides, there was a wave pool to float in, and there was also a shallow pool for small children, but it might be tough to spend the whole day there. It seemed like they were alternating between opening and closing the adjacent slides.
The kids seemed to enjoy the Tornado the most, and they appeared to have the best time at Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii during our trip to Hawaii. I was unsure about the pool in Hawaii, but I'm glad we included it in our travel plans.
1月中旬の曇り空の中、参加しました。
オープンの10時半少し前に到着しましたが、駐車場は空いてました。手荷物検査はしっかり確認され、飲食物は没収されます。ロッカーは大小ありますが、小はかなり小さめ、大サイズで日本の中サイズといった感じです。大人2人と子供2人でバスタオル、着替え、靴をパンパンに押し込んでなんとか扉が閉まりました。なるべく荷物は少なく持って行った方が良いと思います。ロッカー大は、$18で開け閉め自由でした。また、ロッカーは機械でロッカーの鍵番号を設定し、料金の支払いを行います。日本語が話せるスタッフが側にいて安心でした。着替えはトイレ内の更衣室で行います。
パーク内はそれほど広くありませんが、駐車場の空き具合通り人はまばら。流れるプールが一日中クローズだったのが残念でしたが、スライダーは順番待ち無く乗り放題で快適でした。スライダーが苦手の方は波のでるプールでプカプカ、小さい子供は子供用の浅いプールもありましたが、1日過ごすのは厳しいかも。また、隣り合うスライダーを交互にオープンクローズしている感じでした。
子供たちはトルネードが一番楽しかったらしく、また、ハワイ旅行の中でもウエットアンドワイルドハワイを一番楽しんでいる様子でした。ハワイでプールはどうかなぁと思いましたが、旅行プランに組んで良かったです。
It was an experience in unfortunate rainy weather. The zip line was extremely nerve-wracking at first, but once I gathered my courage, it felt great! I think it would feel even better if the weather had been nice.
I also tried the athletic course, but it was scarier than I expected. Since I have a bit of a fear of heights, I skipped some parts of the course. It offers thrills that are hard to find in Japan, so I highly recommend it for those who enjoy that kind of experience.
あいにくの雨模様の中の体験でした。ジップラインは始めはド緊張だったものの、勇気を出したらあとは気持ち良い〜!!天気がよかったら尚気持ち良いかと思います。
アスレチックの方も体験しましたが、予想以上に怖かったです。私はプチ高所恐怖症だった為、一部のアスレチックをパスしました。日本ではなかなか体験できないようなスリルが満点で、好きな方にはかなりおすすめです。
I went with my high school freshman and my fourth grader. It probably depends on the child, but my daughter changed clothes halfway through and became the photographer with her smartphone, haha. The fourth grader was overjoyed!! The adults also returned to their childhood, screaming with excitement, and it was so much fun. Hawaii is enjoyable even without the ocean; it was a new discovery. We'll definitely go again next year.
高1と小4の子供と行きました。
高校生はその子によるのでしょうが、我が娘は途中から着替えてスマホでカメラマンに徹していました笑
小4男子は大喜び!!
付き合う大人も童心に帰ってキャーキャー叫んで、すごく楽しかったです。
海じゃなくても楽しいHawaii、新発見です。
来年もまた行きます。
Don't expect a giant whale to appear right in front of you. We were picked up at the Ko Olina Marriott with about ten others and headed to Waianae Harbor. There were already some participants lined up, probably around 40 to 50 people, and I think we were the only two Japanese. Unfortunately, I could only understand about 80% of the guide's explanations, but I got the gist of it.
We enjoyed a large catamaran yacht cruising at engine speed. Since it was a yacht, we were close to the water, and although the weather was cloudy with occasional sunshine, we had a great time cruising. Once we got offshore, we encountered a small whale that spouted water a few hundred meters away. We saw it several times, and each time there were cheers. I think the sight of a giant tail appearing right in front of us is just a picture from the brochure.
After that, the boat headed to the dolphin area. The dolphins swim in groups and are very curious, coming close to the boat, so we could see them well. However, I had previously participated in a dolphin watching cruise from the same harbor in the summer, and I felt that the dolphins were more energetic and jumping around at that time.
The nearly two-hour cruise included all-you-can-eat rice crackers that looked like persimmon seeds and one drink (including alcohol) for just under $100. I thought it was a bit pricey, but my wife was very impressed. Besides encountering whales and dolphins, she also enjoyed the scenery and the cruising itself.
We were also taken back to the Ko Olina Marriott afterward. Additionally, you have to take off your shoes when boarding, and it's barefoot inside the boat. You just throw your shoes into a container box on the dock, so if you're concerned about that, it might be a good idea to bring a plastic bag or something to carry them inside. We didn't mind since we were wearing flip-flops and sneakers, but my wife found it a bit troublesome to take off her socks.
巨大なクジラが目の前に現れて・・なんて期待してはいけません。
コオリナマリオットで10名ほどピックアップしてもらって、ワイアナエハーバーへ。すでに先客組が並んでいて40~50名ほどの参加者でしょうか、日本人は我々2名だけだったと思います。残念ながらガイドさんの説明は80%は理解できなかったけれど、それなりに分かるものです。
大型のカタマランヨットを機走(エンジンで進む)で楽しみます。ヨットなので海面も近く、参加日は曇り時々晴れでしたがクルージングも楽しめました。沖合に出ると数百メータ先に「プシュッ!」と潮を吹いて泳ぐ小さなクジラに遭遇しました。何度か出くわしますが、そのたびに歓声が上がります。目の前を巨大な尾びれが現れて・・というのはパンフレットの写真だけだと思います。
その後、イルカのエリアにも船は向ってくれました。イルカは群れを成すし好奇心豊かで船にも近づくのでよく見えます。ただ同じハーバーから以前夏にイルカウォッチングクルーズに参加したことがあるのですが、その時のほうがジャンプしたりイルカも元気だったような気がします。
2時間近くのクルーズで、柿の種みたいなあられ(食べ放題?)とワンドリンク(アルコールもあり)で$100弱。ちょっと高いかななんて思ったのですが、カミさんはとても感激。クジラやイルカの遭遇以外にも景色やクルージング自体も楽しかったようです。
帰りもコオリナマリオットまで送ってもらえました。
あと、乗船時に靴を脱ぎ船内は裸足です、脱いだ靴類は桟橋のコンテナボックスに投げ入れるだけなので気になる人はビニール袋等持参して船内に持ち込むのも一考かもしれません。我々はビーサンとスニーカーだったので気にしませんでしたが、カミさんが靴下脱いだり面倒くさがっていました。
I was excited when I saw the map, wondering if I could explore everything, but when I got there, it was surprisingly small, and I completed a lap in no time. The staff were all friendly, but it felt a bit sparse, as one person was watching multiple slides, and the food area called a café was completely closed. I appreciated the water and fruit service at the cabana. Since it was a tour, I had to stay until after 3 PM when the pickup came, which felt like a waste of time when there was nothing to do. I think it would be better to have a rental car next time so I could leave whenever I wanted.
地図で見た時は全部回れるかな〜?とワクワクしてましたが、行ってみると意外と狭くて、あっという間に一周しちゃいました。
スタッフは皆さん愛想のいい方ばかりでしたが、人手不足なのか、一人で複数の滑り台を見ていたり、カフェと名がつくフードエリアが全て閉まっていたり…閑散としている感じがしました。
カバナのお水とフルーツサービスは嬉しかったです。
ツアーなので迎えが来る3時過ぎまでやることないのにいなきゃいけないのは時間の無駄でした。次回行くとしてもレンタカーなどで好きな時に帰れた方がいいなと思いました。
The staff were very kind and accommodating. It was a course that everyone, including my grandfather, my son, and I, could enjoy. Thank you very much.
スタッフの方がとても親切に対応してくださいました。祖父、私、息子と全員が楽しめるコースでした。
ありがとうございました。
I was a bit disappointed that several attractions I wanted to ride were closed. Since I visited on a weekday, there were few people in the facility and the wait times were short, allowing me to ride the slides multiple times. Most of the visitors were tourists, with a majority being Japanese. The only attraction with a long wait time was the FlowRider. There are deck chairs by the central wave pool, but the shaded areas fill up quickly, so I recommend securing a spot as soon as you enter the park.
乗りたかったアトラクションが何個か開いていなかったので少しがっかりでした。
行ったのが平日だということもあり、施設自体は人も少なく待ち時間も少ないのでスライダーに何度も乗ることができた。
来場者は殆どが観光客で日本人が大半です。
唯一待ち時間が長かったのはフローライダーくらいでした。
中央の波が出るプールにデッキチェアがあるが屋根付きで無料の所はすぐ埋まる為、入園後すぐに場所取りしに行く事をおすすめします。
We visited three or four hotels before leaving, spending quite a bit of time before arriving in Honolulu. By the time we got there, it was already open, but there was a long line for baggage inspection, and we could only enjoy the pool around 11 AM. We went on December 31, and it probably wasn't too crowded, but we waited over 30 minutes for the first attraction. The next attraction also had a limited number of two-person floats, and we waited about 30 minutes for a float. Time flew by, and before we knew it, it was already 3 PM for the meeting time. If there were single-person floats, we could have gone down three or four times while we were waiting, so I hope they can be flexible with the number and types of floats based on the situation.
The wave pool had strong waves, and I was a bit worried about the kids drowning, but they were having fun.
On the way back, we were dropped off at the hotels in order of pickup, so we arrived 50 minutes earlier than the scheduled time, which allowed us to make good use of the time afterward.
We had reserved a governor for rental in advance. The rental fee is high, so the cost-effectiveness is questionable, but considering the luggage and dining aspects, it was nice to spend our time elegantly.
For those who want to play a lot, the time might feel short and unsatisfying, but for our family, it was just right, and I thought it would be nice to bring them back again.
行くときにホテルを3,4カ所回っていって、ホノルルを出るまでにかなり時間を費やし、到着したらすでにオープンしていて、荷物検査でもかなり行列で時間がかかり、実際にプールで遊べたのは11時頃でした。12月31日に行きましたがおそらくそんなにすいていなかったのだと思いますが、最初に並んだアトラクションで30分以上まち、次のアトラクションも2人乗りの浮き輪の数が少なく、浮き輪待ちで30分ほど並び、並ぶのに時間がかかり、あっという間に集合の3時になりました。一人乗りの浮き輪だと、私たちが並んでいる間に3回も4回も滑れていましたので、状況をみて浮き輪の数や種類など、臨機応変に対応して下さるといいのにな、と思いました。
波のプールは波の迫力が強く、子供が溺れないか不安なほどでしたが、楽しんでいました。
帰りはピックアップされたホテル順におろして頂いたので、ホテル到着予定時間の50分も前に到着したので、その後の時間を有効に使えて良かったです。
今回ガバナを事前にレンタル予約していました。レンタル料は高いので費用対効果は微妙ですが、荷物のことや、食事面を考えると、優雅に過ごせて良かったです。
たくさん遊びたい人には時間が短く物足りないかも知れませんが、我が家にはちょうどよく、またつれてきてあげたいな、と思いました。
I used to go every summer, but this time I went in winter for the first time. It was nice that it wasn't crowded, but two of the rides I wanted to go on were closed. On top of that, maybe because there were few staff, some facilities were closed at certain times. Even though I paid a lot of money to go, it was disappointing.
毎年夏には行ってましたが、今回初めて冬に、行きました。
すいてるのは良かったのですが、乗りたかったのは、二つもclosed。
その上、店員が少ないせいか、やってる施設も時間によってclosed。
高いお金を払って行ってもあれでは。
Dolphins swam leisurely right beneath us. We were able to see turtles up close, and at the snorkeling point, the coral was more alive than I expected⭐︎ The staff were kind, and we enjoyed a hula dance as well. I would love to participate again.
One disappointing thing was that, despite the explanation not to use spray sunscreen because it harms the marine environment, there were customers who used it without concern. I hope that users will follow the rules to protect Hawaii's beautiful ocean.
イルカが私たちの真下でゆったりと泳いで行きました。亀も至近距離で見られたし、シュノーケルポイントでは思ったより珊瑚が生きていまいました⭐︎
スタッフの方も親切で、フラダンスも楽しませて頂きました。
また参加したいです。
一つ残念だったのは、海の環境に悪い為スプレータイプの日焼け止めは使わないで下さいという説明があったにも関わらず気にせず使われているお客様がいた事です。ハワイの美しい海を守るため、利用者にはルールを守ってもらいたいです。
I had a decent time, but it was a bit disappointing that many attractions were closed. Still, I arrived before the opening and was able to make good use of my time by enjoying the slides in the morning. It wasn't as crowded as pools in Japan. The wave pool is quite intense, so be careful with small children! My child seemed to hit their head on the bottom and was crying. Also, since ID is required for alcohol, it's better to bring your passport.
それなりに楽しめましたが、クローズしてるアトラクションが多く少し残念でした。
それでも開場前に到着し、午前の間にスライダーなどをやって時間を有効に使えました。日本のプールみたいに激混みすることもありません。
波のプールはかなり激しいので、小さなお子様は気をつけましょう!うちの子は底で頭を打ったらしく泣いていました。
あとお酒などでIDが必要なのでパスポートは持って行ったほうがいいでしょう。
My son also became my number one memory from the trip to Hawaii. I want to go again when I visit Hawaii. The scale is just different! It's something you can't experience in Japan.
息子もハワイ旅行の1番の思い出になりましたー。ハワイに行ったらまた行きたいです。とにかくスケールが違う!日本では体験出来ません。
It was my first time booking with VELTRA, and I was glad that we could go around on a Sunday with just two people. Since we started early in the morning when it was bright, we were able to make good use of the afternoon. For lunch, a cart came around the course to serve us.
VELTRAさんで予約したのは初めてでしたが、2人でも日曜日にまわれたのがよかったです♪
朝は明るくなり初めにまわったので、午後が有意義に使えました。
お昼は、カートのワゴンがコースをまわってきてくれましたよ。
**Review**
Due to a mix-up with the shuttle staff, I was left at Kapolei Marketplace for two and a half hours under the guise of a lunch break. Kapolei Marketplace is a rather desolate shopping mall, so there wasn't much to do, and I felt like I wasted a precious opportunity. However, the staff who came to pick me up sincerely apologized, which helped me regain my spirits and participate in the next activity. For those who will be joining in the future, please be mindful of the lunch break time and location, and don't rely solely on the external shuttle staff; make sure to confirm with the park staff as well.
**What I Liked**
The activities were thoroughly enjoyable. The zipline, obstacle course, and buggies were all engaging and didn't feel rushed. The zipline was quite standard, but the obstacle course was lengthy and made me break a sweat, and I was able to ride the buggies for a considerable amount of time.
Additionally, the staff were cheerful and kind. I had previously visited Kualoa Ranch, but the atmosphere here was far superior.
**Advice for Future Participants**
Your clothes and shoes will get quite muddy (especially from the buggies). I recommend wearing washable clothes that you don't mind getting dirty.
【感想】
送迎スタッフの手違いでランチ休憩と称してカポレイ・マーケット・プレイスに2時間半放置されてしまいました。カポレイ・マーケット・プレイスは寂れたショッピングモールなので、ほとんどやることがなく、せっかくの時間を無駄にしたな……とは思ったのですが、迎えに来てくれたスタッフがハワイでは珍しく平謝りだったので気を取り直して次のアクティビティに参加しました。これから参加される方はランチ休憩の時間や場所には気を付けて外部の送迎スタッフに任せきりにせず、パークのスタッフにもきっちり確認を取ってくださいね。
【気に入ったところ】
アクティビティがしっかり楽しめるところです。ジップライン、アスレチック、バギー、いずれもじっくりと楽しむことができ、あっさり終わってしまうということはありません。ジップラインはオーソドックスなものですが、アスレチックはかなり長く、汗だくになりますし、バギーもかなり長時間走ることができました。
また、スタッフが明るく親切です。以前クアロア牧場に行ったことがあるのですが、あそことは比べものにならないほど良い雰囲気でした。
【これから参加する方へのアドバイス】
服や靴はかなり泥だらけになります(特にバギー)。汚れても良い洗える服で行くのがおすすめです。
We had a blast at the pool with lots of slides and waves. I was worried about lunch, but it wasn't as crowded as I thought, so we didn't spend too much time on it. The only downside was that several slides were out of order. If it weren't for that, it would have been perfect!
沢山のスライダーに波が出るプールと遊び倒しました。
不安だった昼食も思ったほど、混雑せず時間を取られずに済みました。
残念だったのは、複数のスライダーが故障で稼働していなかったこと。
それがなければ最高だったんですけどね〜。
I was disappointed to find that about three attractions were not operational. Because of that, the attractions that were open had long lines, and I couldn't enjoy myself enough. There was no information or apology regarding this situation, which was quite unbelievable. It may be common in America, but to be honest, it doesn't match the price. I cannot recommend it at all.
動いていない施設が3つくらいあってガッカリでした。そのせいか動いてる施設も行列が長くて十分遊べませんでした。そのことについて案内もなければ、謝罪も無くて、ちょっと信じられない感じです。アメリカでは当たり前かもしれませんが、ハッキリ言って料金に見合わないです。とてもお勧めできません。
Very hospitable crew of 3 with a great sense of humor took us on a great evening cruise with exceptionally large waves and actually put up a sail! Loved the crew, the other passengers who were interesting, and the wonderful food from local caterer. Be prepared to leave your shoes on the dock and for some water spray and wind, but also for a great sail.
I had a wonderful experience thanks to Maki, and I was able to spend a very enjoyable and valuable time. I was a bit anxious about seeing dolphins on the way there, but that anxiety turned out to be completely unfounded. I was able to swim with dolphins in the beautiful blue sea! It was truly a dreamlike and moving moment to swim so close to them. And to my surprise, I encountered many sea turtles as well. On the way back, I had a great time dancing hula to the ukulele on the boat until the very end. It really became a wonderful memory!
マキさんに素晴らしいアテンドをいただき、とても楽しく貴重な時間を過ごすことができました。行きの船上ではイルカに逢えるか少し不安になりましたが、そんな不安も全く嘘のよう。バッチリ!青い海でイルカと一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました。あんなに近くでイルカと一緒に泳げるなんて、まさに夢と感動の一時でした。そして、何とウミガメにもたくさん出会えるではないですか。帰りは船上でウクレレに合わせてフラダンスを踊りながら最後の最後まで楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。本当に素敵な思い出になりました!
