Dolphin♪ ドルフィン♪

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was really wondering if I would encounter dolphins, but when they appeared right in front of me, it was so moving! I didn't feel seasick at all, and it was very pleasant.

本当にイルカに出会えるかなぁと思ってましたが、
目の前に表れた時は感動でした!
船酔いもなく、とても気持ち良かったです。

It was fun. 楽しかったです

Reviewed by: march

It was a bit early to gather before 6 AM, but I was glad to experience the refreshing Hawaiian morning. The tour included a lot of activities such as searching for dolphins, snorkeling, BBQ, and hula lessons. The crew was very enjoyable, and I made great memories. However, I felt it was more about observing the dolphins rather than swimming with them, so I wish there had been an option to choose life jackets according to our comfort level. Also, it would have been even better if we had a bit more time for snorkeling.

朝は6時前に集合のため少し早起きですが、
すがすがしいハワイの朝を体験することができよかったです。ツアー内容もイルカを探し、シュノーケリング、BBQやフラレッスンと盛りだくさんでした。
クルーの方々もとても楽しく、よい思い出ができました。
ただ、イルカと泳ぐというより観察する感じだったので、レベルに合わせてライフジャケットの着用を選べたりすればよかったなぁと思うのと、シュノーケリングの時間をもう少しとってもらえたら、尚よかったかなと思いました。

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

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This was my first time participating in a dolphin tour. The weather wasn't great, but I had a lot of fun meeting many wild dolphins. I was able to see dolphins both in the water and from the boat, including some that jumped like in a show. Surprisingly, I also saw a whale, which I thought was too early for this time of year. I can only say I was lucky.

During the snorkeling at a different spot, I encountered many fish, turtles, and even stingrays. I didn't expect to see so many marine creatures, so I was excited the entire time I was snorkeling. I had heard that kayaking was an option, but I completely forgot about it. The guides were kind and made the experience enjoyable. I was surprised to see that they were all handsome.

I read experiences about severe seasickness, so I made sure to take medication before participating, which helped me avoid getting sick. It was cold when I got out of the water, so it's better to have a jacket.

今回初めてイルカツアーに参加しました。
天気はイマイチでしたが、たくさんの野生のイルカたちに会うことができてとても楽しかったです。
イルカは海の中でも船の上からでも見ることができました。
ショーのようにジャンプするイルカも。
そしてなんとこの時期にはまだ早いと思うのですがクジラもみれました。これは運が良かったとしかいえないです。
ポイントを変えてのシュノーケルではたくさんのお魚とカメ、そしてエイにも会いました。
こんなにたくさんの海の仲間に会えるとは思っていなかったのでシュノーケルの間は興奮しっぱなし、
カヤックもできると聞いていたのですがすっかり忘れてました。
ガイドの皆さんも親切で楽しませてくれてました。
イケメンぞろいでびっくりです。

船酔いが大変だったという体験談を読みしっかりと薬を飲んで参加しましたので酔うことはなかったです。
海から上がると寒かったので上着はあったほうがよいですね。

Awesome!

I was lucky to have a great crew! Captain Marc and Steve were awesome and funny guys, thank you for having a great trip! We also had been happy seeing the dolphins right away and didn´t have to search for them! The snorkeling was great, especially for first timer, because Marc took his time to explain everything and make people feeling comfortable in the water. They also explain how to behave in the waters with turtles and dolphins around you - so, please listen to them!! It is exhausting having people bumping into you, because they swim - what you should not do....well, some people don´t listen and don´t watch their environment!
Oh, and don´t imagine yourself actually swimming and playing with dolphins! you wanna do that, go to sea life (what I am not recommending - those poor doplphins!!) It´s wild animals - you are able to observe them and their behavior, swimming beneath you - that was awesome!
After the trip, we had a nice lunch with burgers of your choice (pork, chicken, veggi

The day before, I participated in an activity with another company and it was a disappointment, so I thought about canceling. However... it was way beyond my expectations and absolutely amazing!!

I had to wait 30 minutes because they didn't show up at the meeting time (laughs), but the guide was really nice and it was a lot of fun. The captain and all the staff were also entertaining. They danced on the boat, and the hamburgers were delicious, plus we had pineapple and taro!? We got to see sea turtles and dolphins, which was fantastic, and the half-day went by in no time. After getting back on land, I learned hula from a hula teacher, which was a great experience.

This is definitely worth participating in!!!

前日にほかの会社のアクティビティーに参加してはずれだったので、前日にキャンセルしようかと思いましたが。。。
全然、期待以上に最高でした!!

朝待ち合わせ時間にこなくて30分待たされましたが(笑)

It was fun, but... 楽しかったけど・・・

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The staff was very accommodating, and overall, I had a good time. However, the main focus of this tour was supposed to be "swimming with dolphins." The time spent seeing dolphins in the water was surprisingly short, just a few seconds, and they were quite far away. I thought there would be more to it, but I was quickly told to return to the boat, and then we moved on to a spot with turtles and tropical fish. During the transfer, I saw another company snorkeling very close to dolphins jumping, and I was really envious. They must have noticed the short time we had with the dolphins, as we went back to the dolphin point at the end, where we could see them from the boat. However, if the tour is just about seeing dolphins, there are cheaper options available. I hate to be repetitive, but "swimming with dolphins" was the reason I joined this tour... I understand that they are wild animals, but I wish we had been taken to another dolphin point instead of the turtle point after the first stop.

スタッフの方の対応もよく、全体的には楽しめました。
が・・・このツアーのメインは“イルカと泳ぐ”のはず。海の中でイルカを見られたのは驚くほど短く、ほんの数秒。しかもかなり遠い。まさかそれで終わりではないだろうと思っていたのに、すぐに船に戻れと言われ、その後はカメや熱帯魚のいるポイントへ。移動中、別の会社がイルカのジャンプしているすぐ近くでスノーケルしているのが見えて、とってもうらやましかったです。さすがにメインのイルカの時間の短さを気にして下さったのか、最後に再度イルカのポイントへ行き、船の上からイルカを見ることはできましたが、イルカを見るだけのツアーならもっと安いツアーがあります。しつこいようですが、“イルカと泳ぐ”がこのツアーに参加した目的だったのに・・・
野生の生き物なのでしょうがないという気持ちもありますが、最初のポイントの後に、カメポイントではなく、別のイルカポイントに連れて行ってほしかったです。

Thank you for participating. We regret that you were unable to experience swimming closely with wild dolphins this time. Our captain assesses the sea conditions of the day and guides you to the best spots where wild dolphins are known to pass. However, please understand that, due to the nature of wild animals, the number of opportunities to swim with them and the distance to the dolphins can vary from day to day.

ご参加いただき有難うございます。このたびは水中で野生のイルカと間近で一緒に泳ぐ体験をしていただけなかったようで残念に思っております。船長がその日の海の状況を見て、野生のイルカがいるベストスポット(イルカの通り道)へご案内させていただくようにしておりますが、自然の生き物のため、日により一緒に泳げる回数やイルカとの距離は変化しておりますことご了承ください。

I participated with a friend.

First, the hula instructor teaches in a fun way. They also lend you props, so even those who are not feeling motivated will get excited (laughs).

Next, we went to the sea to meet dolphins! Although the time we spent swimming together was short, we were able to swim with dolphins and turtles! Even if you don't encounter dolphins, I think it's a tour that can still be enjoyed thanks to the various performances by the staff on the boat (including dance and jokes).

I definitely want to participate again♪

By the way, it gets quite cold after swimming, so don't forget to bring a jacket!!

友人と2人で参加しました。

最初にフラ、フラの先生が楽しく教えてくれます。
小道具も貸してもらえるので、気乗りがしない人でもテンションがあがりますよ(笑

次にイルカに会いに海へ!
間近で一緒に泳げた時間は少なかったのですが、イルカ&亀と泳ぐが出来ました!
最悪イルカと遭遇出来なくても、船上スタッフのいろいろなパフォーマンス(ダンスあり、ギャグあり)があるので、それなりに楽しめるツアーだと思います。

是非、また参加したいです♪

ちなみに、泳いだ後はかなり寒いので上着を忘れずに!!

Awesome day out with Captain Mark and Lyndon, definitely recommend this activity. For me, a somewhat anxious person getting in the open ocean for the first time, was made easy by the step by step instructions from Capt. Mark. Exellent day on the water, we not only got to see Spinner dolphins but swam with them and spotted them underwater 3 times! Appreciated the lunch and drinks.

I got to see both dolphins and sea turtles! イルカもウミガメも会えた!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I confirmed my reservation in Waikiki, and it was fine to do so in Japanese. They even gave me a morning call early on the day of my arrival.

I participated alone, but both the crew and other guests were friendly, so I highly recommend it!

I took motion sickness medication before departure, and I didn't feel sick at all on the boat or in the pickup van, so it's a must for those who are worried about it. In fact, about two people got seasick on the boat and couldn't go snorkeling with the dolphins.

Since we were dealing with wild dolphins, I thought it would depend on luck, but a mother dolphin and her five calves swam slowly around us! It was a lucky day because the water was very clear!

We moved to another spot and snorkeled among about eight sea turtles! The taro bread hamburger for lunch was also quite delicious!

We were able to return to Waikiki by noon, so I highly recommend it!

ワイキキに到着してからリコンファームしましたが日本語でOKで、当日の朝早くに確認のモーニングコールくれました。
一人参加でしたが、クルーもお客さんも仲良く過ごせるのでオススメです!
出発前に酔い止めを飲んでおいたら、ボートの上でもピックアップのバンでも全然酔わなかったので、心配な方はマストです。
実際2人くらいボートで酔って、イルカシュノーケルできてませんでした。
野生のイルカ相手だから、運もあるだろうとおもってましたが、5頭のイルカの親子が私達の周りを本当にゆっくり泳いでくれました!その日は水も透明度の高い日だったのでラッキーでした!
ポイント移動して、ウミガメが8頭くらいいる中でシュノーケルしました!
ランチのタロイモブレッドのハンバーガーもなかなか美味しかったです!
昼にはワイキキに戻ってこれたので、オススメです!

My teenage daughter and I went on this trip and between the staffs knowledge and enthusiasm and the locations that they took us to, this was an experience we'll never forget. I was concerned that we'd see a few fish and maybe a dolphin or turtle if we were lucky....I was not prepared for the abundance of wild marine life that we got to interract with. This is one of those rare experiences where what you get is WAYYY more than what you pay for. We will absolutely do this again and would highly recommend it to everyone. We would also highly recommend the wetsuit top upgrade....it's very worth it.

I participated at five months pregnant, of course, at my own risk.

At first, I signed up for the first session, but since it was fully booked, I was recommended to join the second session, which was also nearly full in the shuttle van. It seems to be quite popular. During the ride, a DVD was playing, but few people were watching, as most were sleeping.

When we arrived at the location, we borrowed costumes and danced in a nearby field since we were going to do hula dancing first. It was over in no time, but the explanations were clear and it was fun.

Up until this point, everyone, including the others, was energetic.

We boarded the boat and arrived at the dolphin point, but there were several other boats waiting, and we had to wait patiently for our turn. During that time, we saw a few pods of dolphins. They were spinning, and there were baby dolphins too. We waited for the guide's instructions before entering the water, but the pod quickly disappeared. We saw them several times from the boat, but only caught a glimpse of them in the water.

After that, we headed to the snorkeling point, but by this time, some people started to feel seasick. I had a bad feeling too, but I thought it would be better to snorkel than stay on the boat. Following the guide, we discovered a sea turtle, and I was thrilled to see a wild sea turtle. The fish were swimming gracefully, which was also amazing.

However, perhaps due to the worsening weather, I started to feel cold. I swam until I reached my limit but got back on the boat early, and afterwards, I curled up due to seasickness and the cold. More than half of the people around me, who had been energetic just moments ago, seemed to be feeling sick as well, and we took our handmade hamburgers and chips to go. When we got off the boat, it was really strange, but my seasickness suddenly disappeared, and I was munching on a hamburger in the car, while my husband looked really miserable, haha.

I didn't get to fulfill my dream of swimming with dolphins, but overall, it was a good experience. Motion sickness medication is a must.

妊娠5ヶ月での参加でした。勿論自己責任。

最初、一部を申し込んだのですが、満席の為二部を勧められそちらに参加しましたが、二部も送迎のバン?はほぼ満席状態でした。人気なのでしょう。
行きの社内でDVDが流れていましたが、見ている人は少なく、皆寝ていました。
現地に着くと、先にフラダンスをやるという事で傍の原っぱにて衣装を借りて皆で踊りました。あっという間でしたが説明もわかりやすく楽しかったです。

他の方達含め、元気が良いのはここまでです。

船に乗り、イルカポイントに到着するも他の船も何隻か待っていて自分達の番が来るのをひたすら待ちました。その間に何回かイルカの群れを見ました。スピンもしていたし、子供イルカも居ました。
ガイドさんの指示を待って海に入りましたが、群れはあっという間に行ってしまいました。船上では何度も見れましたが、海の中では一瞬見れただけでした。
この後、今度はシュノーケルポイントに向かいましたが、この辺りで船酔いする人が出てきて、自分もちょっと嫌な予感はしましたが、船上に居るよりは良いと思いシュノーケルしました。ガイドさんについていくとウミガメを発見、野生のウミガメには感動しました。魚も悠々と泳いでいて感動です。
しかし、雲行きがあまり良くなかったせいか体が冷えてきて、限界まで泳ぎましたが早めに船に上がり、その後は襲ってきた船酔いと寒さでずっとうずくまっていました。
さっきまで元気だった周りの方達も半分以上酔っていたようで、手作りハンバーガーもチップスもお持ち帰りしました。船を下りると、本当に不思議なことにケロっと船酔いが治り私は車内でハンバーガーを頬張っていましたが旦那さんは本当に辛そうでした 笑
イルカと泳ぐ夢は叶いませんでしたが、全体的に良い体験でした。 酔い止め必須です。

Last time, I signed up for a different tour, but I was just desperately swimming after dolphins and hardly saw any. With Dolphin You, the captain predicts the dolphins' movements and takes you to the right spots, so I was able to see the pods without chasing them around. Also, the life vests allow you to adjust the air yourself, so those confident in swimming can dive, which made it a lot of fun. My 8-year-old daughter, who is good at swimming, was crying because she wanted to use an adult vest instead of a child-sized one, and Shanti kindly comforted her and switched it to an adult vest. I was very satisfied as I was able to see many dolphins during all three tries. At the turtle point, we were allowed to snorkel slowly, and I was able to swim with 4 to 5 turtles for a long time. This tour is truly filled with consideration for making guests enjoy themselves, and I was moved by that. It was completely different from the previous dolphin tour and other tours, as I always felt that they prioritized the guests. The hamburgers were delicious, and trying hula dancing turned out to be surprisingly fun. If I want to encounter dolphins again next time, I will choose this tour. Thank you, Shanti, Kaina, Ila, and Steve!!

前回は別のツアーに申し込んだのですが、イルカを追いかけて必死に泳いでいるだけで、ほとんど姿をみられませんでした。ドルフィンユーの場合は、キャプテンがイルカの動きを予測してポイントに落としてくれるので、追いかけ回すことなくイルカの群れを見ることが出来ました。また、ライフベストも自分で空気の量を調整できるため、泳ぎに自信のある人は潜ったりすることも出来るので、とても楽しめました。泳ぎの得意な8歳の娘が子供用のベストでなく、大人用のものを使いたいと泣いていたところ、シャンティが優しく慰めてくれ、大人用のベストに替えてくれました。3回のトライすべてでたくさんのイルカを見ることが出来て大満足でした。ウミガメのポイントでもゆっくりとシュノーケルをさせてくれたので、4~5匹のウミガメとずっと泳いでいられました。このツアーは、本当にゲストを楽しませようという心遣いに溢れており、感激しました。前回のイルカツアーや、別のツアーとは全く違い、ゲストのことを第一に考えてくれていることを常に感じていました。ハンバーガーも美味しかったし、フラダンスもやってみると意外と楽しかったです。次回もイルカに遭いたくなったらこのツアーで行きます。シャンティ・カイナ・イラ・スティーブ、みんなありがとうね!!

My family and I went on the Hawaii Dolphin Swim & Snorkel on June 26, 2011 morning swim. It was beyond our expectations. We found dolphins right away and the captain and crew knew exactly where to find them. There were several dolphin pods and we were able to get pretty close to them but not touching them. 3 of them hovered about 5 feet below my wife and I making their squeal and clicking sounds. It was amazing. The snorkel equipment they provided was in good shape and very reliable. The boat was fine with plenty of room to move around and feel safe aboard. The crew was very professional, friendly and entertaining. The food was average but any time you've been in the water for a while, coming out to a hot burger is always delicious. I would highly recommend this trip especially if you want to get in the water. We also had time to freelance snorkel in an area 25 feet deep that had several sea turtles hanging out. They were fabulous to watch swim by you on their way to the surface

Ko Olina Ocean adventures actually placed me on the wrong activity.. I wanted to be lazy, lay around on their catamaran, enjoy the sun , do some leisure snorkeling and drink Instead I was placed on a small ocean raft but I had a great dolphin swim adventure.

We started off checking in, which was actually pretty fast. Waited around for about 25 minutes until everyone was checked in and got on the boat (NO SLIPPERS ALLOWED), this is a barefeet type of activity, they ask that you leave your slippers on the dock.

First snorkeling site is just your normal site, this allows whoever is not familiar with snorkeling to get familiar. My sister and I actually drifted off because we had our head in the water the entire time, and we did not realize how far we drifted away form the boat. Luckily, the crew consists of awesome swimmers and they jumped in to pull us back to the boat. :-)

2nd and 3rd site was our Dolphin Drops, the boat is still moving and you slide off the boat into the wat

My dream has come true! 夢がかないました!

Swimming with wild dolphins in the ocean has been a dream of mine for many years. I thought it would be difficult, so I participated with the expectation of being lucky to catch even a glimpse. However! Not only did I see them, but from the boat, I witnessed dolphins jumping, and once in the water, there were pods of dolphins coming one after another! I could even hear their cute sounds, and it was truly moving.

Additionally, all the staff were cheerful, and I believe it would have been a fun tour even if we hadn't seen any dolphins. After getting off the boat, we had a hula lesson in a cool shade, which also became a heartwarming and enjoyable memory. I definitely want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii.

野生のイルカと海で一緒に泳ぐのが長年の夢でした。
でも難しいだろうから、『ちらっとでも見れたらラッキーだな』ぐらいの期待で参加したのです。
ところが!ちらっとどころか、ボート上からはイルカたちのジャンプが、海に入ればイルカの群れが次から次へと!!かわいい鳴き声も聞こえ、もう感動でした。
また、スタッフも皆陽気で、もしイルカが見れなかったとしても楽しいツアーになったと思います。
ボートを降りた後は涼しい木陰でフラレッスン、こちらも心癒される楽しい思い出となりました。
今度ハワイに行ったときにも是非参加したいです。

I was picked up from the hotel where I was staying, passed by the "What Tree Is That?" tree, and arrived at the port. After a bathroom break, we boarded the boat. Before reaching the dolphin point, we were lucky enough to see a rare whale at the end of April. We snorkeled at the dolphin point. When we were told to "look down," we saw many dolphins! The underwater world, illuminated by sunlight, was beautiful.

My 4-year-old child was indeed scared of the ocean, but the staff helped by putting them on a kayak, and they seemed to have a great time.

The hula dance while feeling the wind was also enjoyable, and the CD of the photos I purchased turned out to be excellent. I brought an underwater camera, but I couldn't compete with the professionals.

Since it was April, I was glad I brought a hoodie.

宿泊してたホテルまで迎えにきてもらい、この木なんの木の横を通過し、港に到着。トイレタイムの後船に乗り込みます。イルカポイントに着く前に4月末には珍しい鯨に会えました。イルカポイントでシュノーケル。look downと言われ海の中を見るとイルカがたくさん!日の光が注ぐ海の中は綺麗でした。
4歳の子どもは、やはり海を恐がりましたが、スタッフがカヤックに乗せてくれて、楽しそうでした。

風を感じてのフラダンスも楽しかったし、購入した写真のCDも、申し分なく出来上がりの良いものでした。私も水中カメラを持って行きましたが、プロには敵わないです。

時期が4月ということもあり、パーカーを持って行って正解でした。

A day experiencing Hawaii! 一日でHawaii体験\^0^/

Reviewed by: ぶぶぶ

It was my first experience with snorkeling!

Even though I wore a life jacket, it was quite challenging for me, who can't swim, to get used to using the fins ^^;

However, they assessed how well each participant could swim at the beginning and provided support, so I was able to swim with peace of mind ;)

The water wasn't as clear as in photos or stories, so I couldn't see the dolphins clearly underwater or swim with them, but I could hear their voices! ((@0@) From the boat, I was able to see several mother-dolphin pairs and groups☆

The captain and crew were incredibly kind, and the hamburgers were delicious ♥ When I was on the kayak, I got to see a sea turtle up close, which was truly moving (:_; )

And above all...

The ocean was so beautiful!!!!

I forgot everything and felt so relaxed ´ω`

The final hula experience was also a lot of fun *^'*b

I think anyone, whether friends, couples, or families, will definitely enjoy it!!

I highly recommend it for those who want to experience Hawaii in just one day\^0^/

シュノーケリング初体験でした!

ライフジャケットを着用していたものの、
泳げない私はフィンの使い方に
慣れるまでなかなか大変でした^^;

でも最初にどのくらい泳げるか
参加者の状態を把握して
フォローしてくれたので
安心して泳げました;)

海はそれほど透き通ってなかったので、
写真や体験談のように
水中でイルカをハッキリ見たり、
一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでしたが、
声が聞こえましたよっ((@0@
船上からは何頭もの親子や群れを
見ることができました☆

キャプテンやクルーの皆さんは
とーっても優しいし、
ハンバーガーはおいしいし♥
カヤックに乗った時には
ウミガメを間近で見られて
本当に感動しました(:__;)

そして何より…

海がキレ~~~イ!!!!

何もかも忘れて
癒してもらいました´ω`

最後のフラ体験も
とっても楽しかったです*^'*b

友達、カップル、家族、
誰と参加しても必ず
楽しめると思います!!

一日でHawaiiを体験したい方には
本当にオススメです\^0^/

Ko Olina Ocean Adventures Snorkel with Wild Dolphins Rafting Tour [Open Soon]

So So....

Reviewed by: The Langes

The tour was very predictable. There wasnt much "uniqueness" about this tour. The wait time to even board the boat was extremely excessive. There were 3 people at the check in counter and only 1 of them was accepting people and checking them in while the other 2 enjoyed the chaos. After waiting in line to check in for over 30 minutes we were herded outside only to hurry up and wait some more. Boarding the boat finally approached and we sat there for another 20 minutes while they explained snorkeling to the group. Once we got to the first snorkeling site we waited on the boat another 20 minutes before getting in the water. After about 30 minutes in the water the captain demanded that we all get back in the boat. Now we were off to see the dolphins. This was about a 40 minute ride up the coast. The view was great. Once we arrived at the dolphin site we all took turns getting in the water and watching for them to swim underneath us. Not with us but underneath us. Okay, it was pretty cool

Great crew. Best fun to value available. These guys have this down to the details. Pros all the way around. You can go with the others if you want but I know the secret.

I went with my family. My wife and daughter were first time snorkelors and apprehensive at the least. Mindy did a great job working with them and getting them into the water.

The captain went out of his way to find fun. The photographer took the best open water photos I've seen. I have seen a few.
The food was generous and tasty.

Thanks guys, see you next time.

3-Hour West Coast Snorkel Cruise & Marine Life Safari by Dolphin Excursions

Highlight of our Oahu Vacation!

Reviewed by: cathy

We booked this tour after reading about it on a web site. We asked our kids do you want to go to amusemant park setting and touch dolphins, OR swim with them in the ocean, and the results was unanimous The wild ones in the ocean! They picked us up at our hotel and took us to the boat, they were very friendly and punctual. The staff on the boat were beyond awesome. They were fun and explained everything and paid special attention to our 9 year old who was a little scared to go out in the big ocean. Pete sense her fear, and took control and jumped in the water with her and she had the best seat in the house on his back swimming with dolphins! He even brough her up a sea urchin to delight her while she was eating lunch! We had pretty rough water but the captain on the boat did a great job, very obvious he knew exactly what to do in in rough ocean. They bbq'd burgers for lunch with purple colored hamburger buns wheich totally delighted our daughter! They entertained us afterward

I was able to see a lot of dolphins! Dolphinいっぱい見れました!

Reviewed by: makko

The tour guide was a wonderful Japanese lady who was very kind.

It was a lucky day; I was able to swim with dolphins (although they were a bit far away), see whales, and swim very close to turtles.

On the way back, I was thrilled to see a larger dolphin that rarely appears!

The lunch burger was really delicious, and those who wanted to could also enjoy kayaking, making for a very fun experience.

The local guides and hula dance instructors were also very warm and wonderful people, creating great memories.

There were couples, solo travelers, and groups of two girls, among others.

The boat swayed a bit, so it's better to take motion sickness medication!

I highly recommend this tour!!

ツアーのガイドさんも日本人の素敵なお姉さんで、とても親切でよかった。

その日はラッキーデーで、イルカとも泳げたし(ちょっと遠かったけど)クジラも見れて、カメともとても近くで一緒に泳ぐことができました。

帰りがけにたまにしか現れない大きめのイルカも見ることができて感動!!

途中のランチのハンバーガーがとってもおいしかったり、カヤックも希望者は乗せてもらえてとても楽しく過ごすことができました。

現地のガイドサンやフラダンスの先生たちもとても温かく素敵な人で、いい思い出ができました。

カップル、一人旅、女の子二人組みいろいろな方がいました。

船は少し揺れるので酔い止め飲んでおいたほうがBETTER!

おススメのツアーです!!

Hawaii Dolphin Swim & Snorkel

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Staff were great and lunch was nice however took a long time to actually see any dolphins. However we did eventually find them in addition to turtles, seals and whales. Stayed a long way away from them and couldnt get a close look. Boat ride was lots of fun which made up for the long wait. I was under the impression from the tours description that you could swim with or near the dolphins however this is not the case at all and only saw them for a few minutes before being taken far away to a snorkle spot.

Thank you for a fun day. The ocean condition was a little less than ideal today, but I saw plenty of dolphines, whales, and even a turtle. It was amazing.
The staff members were very kind, entertaining, and plain fun people. I had a faburous day.
