I was able to properly meet the dolphins. The guide was very powerful and led us right to where the dolphins were. My daughter participated as well and managed to keep up. It’s quite hard, so I think it would be tough if you don’t get a good night's sleep the night before.

イルカにきちんと会えました。
ガイドさんがとってもパワフルで、しっかりイルカのいるところへ導いてくれました。
娘も参加して、なんとかついていけました。
結構ハードなので、前日しっかり睡眠とらないと大変だと思います。

It was absolutely wonderful!!! 大変素晴らしかった！！！

Reviewed by: ひろべす

My stay at the Kahala Hotel was an early start with a 5 AM pickup, but it turned out to be a truly wonderful memory. The guide, Takao, provided a very clear and persuasive tour, which added a great "flavor" to the experience. As a snorkeling beginner in my fifties, I initially struggled to keep up with everyone in search of dolphins, but the support from the staff was very reassuring. Eventually, I got the hang of it and was able to meet the dolphins and sea turtles, which felt amazing. If I get the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate in this tour.

カハラホテル滞在であり、5時ピックアップと早起きでしたが、大変素晴らしい思い出となりました。ガイドのＴＡＫＡＯさんの大変わかりやすく説得力のあるガイドもツアーのよき「味付け」となっていました。シュノーケリング初心者のアラフィフであり、最初はなかなか慣れずにイルカを求めてあっちこっちに皆さんについていくのが大変でしたが、スタッフのサポートもあり、大変心強かったです。そのうちに慣れてきてイルカさんやウミガメさんにも無事合えて、大変気持ちよかったです。またハワイに行けたら、必ず参加したいと思います。

I couldn't meet the dolphins. イルカに会えなかった。

Reviewed by: ななまさ

I participated in a tour that started at 11:00. I received a call about the pickup 30 minutes before, which left a good impression. They arrived on time, and we were able to depart. After setting sail on the boat, we searched for dolphins, but there weren't large groups, and those who saw them had very little time, which was disappointing. Since I didn't see any dolphins, I received a coupon for 50% off for my next visit on the way back. My family also enjoyed it, so I would like to participate again when I come to Hawaii next time.

11時開始のツアーに参加しました。
お迎え30分前にホテルにお迎え予定の電話があり好印象。
時刻通り迎えがあり、出発出来ました。
船で出船後、イルカを捜しましたが大きな群れは無く、見れた人、時間も少しで残念でした。
イルカが見れなかったので帰りに次回50%offで使用できるクーポンをもらいました。
家族にも好評でしたので、次回ハワイへ来たらまた参加したいと思いました。

Full of dolphins. イルカでいっぱい

Reviewed by: イルカに感動

We participated as a family of four. The weather was great. From the bus ride, the staff provided detailed explanations about life jackets and safety points for the sea, which gave us a sense of security. As soon as we arrived at the port, we boarded a two-story boat. It had a restroom and was a splendid vessel. The fins and equipment were relatively new and clean. The captain took us to the right spot, and with the encouragement of the staff, we jumped into the sea. Unfortunately, during the first jump, the dolphins swam away in the distance, but on the second try, we encountered a wonderful pod and swam so close to the dolphins that it felt like we could reach out and touch them, losing track of time in the moment. We also danced hula together and during snorkeling time, we even saw turtles. It was a day of great satisfaction.

家族4人で参加しました。お天気は良好。行きのバスからスタッフの方が、ライフジャケットや海での注意点を細かく説明して下さり、安心感がありました。港に着いてすぐに2階建てのボートに乗りました。トイレもあり、立派な船でした。フィンや道具は新しめで綺麗でした。船長さんがここというポイントに連れて行って下さり、スタッフの方々の掛け声で海に飛び込みます。初めの一回は残念ながらイルカは遠くに泳いで行ってしまいましたが、2回目にすばらしい群れに会えて、イルカと手が届きそうな近さで泳ぎ時間を忘れるひと時でした。
フラダンスをみんなで踊ったり、シュノーケリングタイムには亀にも会えました。大満足の一日でした。

Oahu Spinner Dolphin Tour on the Waianae Coast with Snorkeling, Lunch & Hotel Transportation

Em, Jenna and Paul- AMAZING!

Reviewed by: Danielle

Our experience from start to finish was exceptional! The shuttle ride started with a wonderful ride from Emanual- she was friendly and conversational, making our time feel like it was spent with a friend. She was knowledgeable about the Island and told us interesting things. She suggested we rent a car and we did- the next day! Thanks Em so worth it! On the boat Em and Captain Jenna were wonderful. Our teenager got a little sick but they didn't give up on her, with their words of encouragement and support we set sail. Our 8 year old was afraid and because of you two ladies she got in and snorkeled with an 80year old turltle. Words can express that magic of that experience! We are eagerly anticipating the pictures photographer Paul took. Your attention to detail and obvious dedication to your craft is remarkable. Thank you team dolphin excursion for loving what you do and sharing that with my family. Mahalo!

I wanted to see more dolphins. もっとイルカを見たかった

Reviewed by: もんきち

There are some things that can't be helped since it's nature, but I was able to encounter dolphins, although I only saw their dorsal fins. I couldn't see them swimming around in the water. I got my hopes up because the experience photos showed Masala donuts. We departed early in the morning without having time for a satisfying meal before boarding. There were no drinks or snacks during the ride, and we finally got a light meal around 11 o'clock, which included hamburgers, drinks, and snacks. Maybe I was expecting too much from the dolphins and the food.

自然が相手なので仕方ないところもあるけど、イルカと遭遇出来たけど、イルカの背びれは見えただけ。海の中を泳ぎ回るところまでは見ることが出来なかった。体験談の写真ではマサラダドーナツが映ったりしていたので期待しちゃいました。早朝出発で満足な食事をとる時間もないままに乗船。
乗船中のドリンクやスナックはなく、11時頃の軽食でやっとハンバーガーとドリンク、スナックが出された。イルカやフードに期待しすぎちゃったかな。

野生のイルカウォッチング＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　たっぷり3時間のシュノーケルで満喫 ＜ランチ＆アルコール2杯付き／送迎付きor現地集合＞

It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: ともこ

The cheerful guide, who was a second-generation Japanese-American captain, mostly had foreign guests, but afterwards, he kindly interpreted for the Japanese customers, making it easy to understand. The boat was a yacht type, allowing us to fully enjoy the resort atmosphere. After seeing dolphins, I was delighted to spot sea turtles swimming at a depth of about 10 meters during snorkeling. There was not enough time during lunchtime, so a lot of food was left over, which felt wasteful. It's better to start eating right after snorkeling. I was shocked to find that other coupons offered the same tour at a lower price than what I had booked, but the tour itself was very good, so I highly recommend it!

日系２世の船長さんの陽気なガイドで、お客さんはほとんど外国人の方でしたが、そのあと日本人客向けに丁寧に通訳してくださり、よくわかりました。
船もヨットタイプでリゾート気分満喫。
イルカを見たあと、シュノーケリング場所では水深10メートル程のところに海亀も泳いでいるのが見えて嬉しかったです。
ランチタイムは時間が少ないので沢山食べ物が余ってしまって勿体なかったです。シュノーケリングが終わったらすぐに食べはじめたほうがいいです。
他のクーポンで同じ内容のツアーが自分が予約したものより安くなっててショックを受けましたが、ツアー自体はとても良かったのでお勧めです❗

Early in the morning 朝早く

Reviewed by: こーじ

We gathered and departed before 6 AM, and the early start was a bit tough. Shortly after setting sail, we spotted a pod of dolphins and began snorkeling. Due to the busy season, there were many participants, and I was the last to enter the water, so I couldn't see any dolphins. Those who went in first were able to see dolphins swimming right in front of them. It seems that to see the moving dolphins, you really need to go early.

After that, we moved to see turtles, as there are rocky areas where they reside. As expected, since they live among the rocks, we were able to see three turtles swimming slowly around the area. One of them came up right in front of me, probably for air, which was surprising. It was within reach. This was great and I think it became a wonderful memory.

朝の６時前に集合して出発、早いのが少し辛い。
出港早々、イルカの群れを発見しシュノーケル開始。
繁忙期の為、参加者が多く、私は最後に海に入るもイルカは見られず。先頭で入った方々は目の前を泳ぐイルカを見れたとの事。やはり移動して行くイルカを見るには早めに行かないと厳しいみたい。
その後はカメを見に移動、こちらはカメが住み着いている岩場があるという事。流石に岩場に住み着いているという事なので、カメが３頭ゆっくりと岩の周りが泳いでいるのが見れました。
その内の１頭が息継ぎの為か目の前まで上がって来てビックリ。もう手の届く距離でした。
これは良いけど想い出になったと思います。

Not understanding English reduces the fun by half. 英語がわからないと楽しさ半減

Reviewed by: カリン

There are Japanese staff members, but the basic staff members are English speakers, so if you don't understand English, you might feel left out. I thought it might have been better to have more university-related staff.

When boarding the boat, it's better to sit in the open back so you can participate in various activities and enjoy yourself.

I applied for photos, but you won't get photographed unless you actively ask for it. During the time to enjoy activities, make sure to go and say, "Please take my picture!"

Many people were feeling seasick. It was nice weather, though. The motion sickness wristbands I bought on the pickup bus were expensive, but I believe they helped my daughters and me not to get sick! Our family usually has a weak constitution.

日本人のスタッフの方もいますが、基本英語のスタッフの方々が楽しい会話をしていますので、英語がわからないと置いてけぼり感を感じます。

Waianae Beach
The ocean was very clear, and I was truly impressed.
I was able to see many dolphins. Their sounds were also audible, and they were really cute.

Makaha Beach
I went snorkeling and saw many sea turtles and small fish swimming around.
Makaha Beach felt like a place that wasn't a typical tourist spot; it was a laid-back beach that I definitely want to visit again.
After enjoying snorkeling at this beach, you can also try stand-up paddleboarding.

Stand-up paddleboarding was exciting and fun, but there was a bit of a rotation system with the vibe of "Okay, you did one round. You stood up! (Next!)", so I felt there was a bit less freedom.

Even so! I thought it was truly valuable to have that much fun and relax just in the morning.

It had a different atmosphere compared to the typical spots like Waikiki, North Shore, and Kailua. I think it's a direction that we don't often go to on our own, but I highly recommend it. I'm really glad I participated!

それでも！午前中だけであれだけ楽しめてのんびり過ごせて本当に価値があると思いました。

West Coast Explorer - Land Tour & Beach Snorkel (from Ko Olina / Waikiki)

Great tour of the picturesque, less touristy west side of Oahu

Reviewed by: Lorna and Tammy

Bob and Akima picked us up at 7.25 am outside Hawaiian Prince Hotel, then picked up 2 other groups of 3 making 8 of us. We drove out of Waikiki for around 20 mins with interesting commentary about Hawaii from Akima before reaching our first stop - a beautiful picturesque beach where it"s possible to see dolphins. Akima spoke Japanese so stayed with the 6 Japanese people leaving Bob to me and my friend. Bob told us a lot about the area and if you want to know more about surfing then Bob's your man. We then moved on to a small group of shops where we bought items for our picnic lunch later.
We next went to a Kaneana,(Makua cave) a very old sea cave with many legends attached to it. Bob was a great storyteller telling us about the legend of the shapeshifter shark man of Makua cave. Then you can explore the cave a bit if you dare!
Next we stopped at the stunning Makaha valley which again has a great legend associated with it and looks like scenery from Kong Island or Jurassic Park.
We were really lucky driving to our next spot as Bob spotted a rare Monk Seal basking on the rocks.
A couple more lovely spots then time for our lunch at Ku'ilioloa Heiau, and then the snorkelling at Pokai Bay. First Bob checked our swimming ability then gave us mask,snorkel and fins plus a life vest. Bob is very patient and stays with you all the time gently encouraging you to explore the sealife. I'm not confident snorkelling but felt very safe with Akima and Bob. We saw corals, beautiful colourful fish and 2 sea turtles.
It was a really great day which we would definitely recommend to anyone wishing to see a much less touristy authentic side of Oahu, the scenery is just beautiful and excellent snorkelling. Many thanks to Akima and Bob who made our day special.

We participated as a family of four. It was August, and all participants wore bodysuits. Those who were worried about seasickness purchased seasickness bands (for both wrists). Our family also took seasickness medication, but we wanted to enjoy ourselves, so we bought the bands. (Those without bands seemed to struggle with nausea!) We put on our snorkeling gear and jumped into the sea, following the person in front of us. We were lucky to swim with "dolphins," "sea turtles," and "fish" right away. After playing, we had lunch on the boat with hamburgers and fruit, and there was also a hula dance with the staff. Since we had signed up for photos ($60) on the bus ride there, we got to take commemorative pictures with the captain in the ship's upper control room, which made for great memories!

Dolphins and turtles for the first time outside of the aquarium. 水族館以外で初めてのイルカとカメ

My daughter had her first experience seeing sea turtles and dolphins in nature. They came close enough for her to touch them. However, she was a bit scared when it came to jumping into the sea from the boat. The staff on the boat were kind, and we had a great time dancing to music!

For lunch, they packed a hamburger for us since my daughter was sleeping. We enjoyed it deliciously at the hotel.

I also purchased photos, and I was surprised to find there were about 500 images. They were all evenly captured. It was a bit pricey, but I’m glad I bought them. It’s a wonderful memory.

If you participate, keep in mind that renting a wetsuit (for those who want it) costs extra, so it's best to bring some money. Also, just in case, bring motion sickness medication!

I will be going back to enroll in Dolphin University.

This activity was okay. It was hard to see the dolphins when they did swim near us underwater because we had to wear life vests which kept us at the surface. The snorkeling in this side of the island(at least the part we were taken to)is not as good as other parts. The crew was nice and the food at the restaurant was good. I was not happy that one of our fellow passengers took one of our beach towels. They belonged to the condo we were staying in and I had to replace it.

I couldn't swim with the dolphins. イルカと一緒に泳げず

Reviewed by: ぶーおく

We participated in creating family memories for my daughter's 10th birthday present. The morning pickup point was somewhat scattered, and our house was about a 7 to 10-minute walk away. The bus was comfortable, and the explanations from the Japanese instructor were very easy to understand, which was great. There were 45 participants that day, and since it was during summer vacation, there were 12 children under 12 years old.

When we arrived at the port, we quickly spotted dolphins on the stable Tamakalan boat, but perhaps because of the large size of the boat, we couldn't get close to the dolphins. Maybe the smaller Dolphin Junior boat is more maneuverable? We tried to enter the water ahead of the direction the dolphins were swimming, but since 45 people splashed in at once, the dolphins swam away, and we desperately swam towards them. During the first entry, I was able to catch a glimpse of them by closely following the instructor, but it was only for about 10 seconds. That day, instead of the usual two entries, we made three, but in the end, my daughter and husband couldn't see any dolphins... It turned into a disappointing memory.

However, the accompanying photographer was very cheerful and lively, which made it a lot of fun, but the photos he took cost $60 per group. We ended up spending quite a bit. Because we made three entries, we didn't have time for snorkeling, and we couldn't do any marine activities. I think our satisfaction would have been much higher if we had encountered the dolphins, so it's very disappointing.

For our family of four, including the photo costs, it came to 60,000 yen. I was aware that there was a possibility of not seeing them since they are wild animals, but it was very disappointing that we couldn't see them in the water even though we could confirm they were so close.

娘の１０歳お誕生日プレゼントとして家族の思い出作りに参加しました。
朝のピックアップポイントはざっくりと分かれており、我が家は徒歩７〜１０分歩いたところでした。バスは快適で、日本人インストラクターの方の説明がとてもわかりやすくてよかったです。この日は４５名の参加があり、夏休み中ということもあり１２歳以下の子供が１２人参加。
港に着くと、揺れの少ないタマカランボートに乗ってイルカはすぐに見つかりましたが、大きいボートのせいかなかなかイルカに近づけず。イルカ中学のボートのほうが小回りが利くのでしょうか？イルカが泳いでくる方向に先回りしてエントリーしましたが、４５人がバシャバシャ飛び込んだせいか、イルカが離れていってしまい、イルカのほうまで必死に泳ぎました。１回目のエントリーではインストラクターの後をすぐについていったのでちらっと見ることができましたが１０秒程度。この日、通常２回のところ、３回エントリーしましたが、結局、娘と夫はイルカを見ることができず。。。しょっぱい思い出作りになりました。
ただ同行していたカメラマンの方がとても陽気で盛り上げてくれて、とても楽しかったのですが、撮ってくれた写真は１グループ６０＄。すっかり散財してしまいました。
３回エントリーしたことで、スノーケリングの時間もなくなり、マリンアクティビティもできずじまい。イルカと遭遇できていたら満足度が高かったと思うのですが、とても残念です。
家族４人で写真代をいれて６万円。自然のものなので会えない可能性があるのは承知の上でしたが、すぐそばに確認できたのに海の中で見られなかったことがとても残念でした。

Thanks to Instructor Julie, I had a great time. インストラクタージュリさんのおかげで楽しめました

The instructor's enthusiasm to show everyone the dolphins was incredible, and they extended the time to chase the dolphins, allowing us to see them multiple times. The most touching moment was when three dolphins swam right beneath us! ♪ Because of the extension, the snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) we had planned later were combined into one activity, so my husband chose SUP while I chose snorkeling. I was able to enjoy cheering for my husband on the surface while snorkeling. Since these are wild dolphins, we can't always swim with them, but it was a thoroughly enjoyable tour.＾＾

参加者のみんなにイルカを見せようというインストラクターさんの熱意がすごくて、イルカを追う時間を延長して何度も見せてくれました。
丁度自分たちの真下を３匹のイルカが泳いで行った時が一番近くて感動しました♪
その延長のために、後に計画していたシュノーケリングとサップの時間が一緒になり、どちらかひとつの参加となりましたが、夫はサップを、私はシュノーケリングを選び、シュノーケリングの傍らサップしてる夫を水面から応援して楽しむことが出来ました。
野生のイルカなので、常に一緒に泳げるわけではありませんが、十分に楽しいツアーでした。＾＾

My first trip to Hawaii. And it was a solo journey. I was able to swim together during two out of three dives! After that, I enjoyed marine sports and went snorkeling again. I wish I had taken motion sickness medication. The staff were bright, reliable, and made me feel safe!

初のハワイ。そして一人旅。3回のダイブで2回一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました‼︎その後はマリンスポーツで楽しんだりまたシュノーケリングしたりと満喫できます。酔い止め飲んでいれば良かったです。スタッフの皆さん明るく頼もしく安心でした‼︎

Diving at the beach with my 1.5-year-old baby was amazing! We even got to meet dolphins, and I was very satisfied. 1歳6ヶ月のベビーと一緒に海でダイビング！イルカにも出会えて大満足でした

I thought I wouldn't be able to communicate in Japanese when I joined the tour, but it turned out that the guide was a Japanese American, so they kindly provided explanations in Japanese! Since there are many Japanese people in Hawaii, it was refreshing to be on a tour with fewer Japanese participants.

I had my 1.5-year-old child with me, and they were thrilled to see the dolphins. I thought I would have to take turns snorkeling with my husband, but surprisingly, we were able to swim with our child in water deeper than 10 meters. (My husband isn't a strong swimmer, so I went in with them, haha.)

It's recommended to bring a life jacket since even small children can join in. The waves can be high, so if you're not a strong swimmer, it might be better not to go in with small children.

日本語が通じないと思ってツアーに参加したら、なんとガイドの方が日系アメリカ人ということで、日本語での説明も丁寧にして下さいました！ハワイにいると日本人が多いので、日本人が少ないツアーだったのも新鮮でした。

子供が1歳6ヶ月同伴でしたが、イルカに大はしゃぎ。シュノーケリングは夫と交代でやらないといけないと思っていたのですが、なんと水深10メートル以上のところで、子供と泳がせてもらいました。（夫は泳ぐのが苦手なので、私が一緒に入りました笑）

小さいお子様でも一緒に入れるので、ライフジャケットは持って行っておくのがオススメです！波が高いので、泳ぐのが苦手という方は、小さいお子様とは一緒に入らない方がよいかもしれません。

The dolphins, turtles, and staff are all amazing! イルカ、カメ、スタッフ全て最高です！

Reviewed by: あかちゃん

First of all, I felt a great sense of reassurance when I saw the Japanese staff welcoming us. The explanations were all very thorough, covering how to use the snorkel, how to use the life jacket, and details about the dolphins we would see, which made me really excited before getting in the water. Thanks to the staff, we were able to see many dolphins and turtles! The staff were truly dedicated, guiding everyone with enthusiasm, saying things like, "There are dolphins here!" and we had a wonderful time.

However, there was one point that might have been due to my not reading all the details thoroughly: the photographer takes pictures of everyone throughout the experience! The photos, as shown, are really beautiful and I love them, but they are quite expensive... around 5,000 to 6,000 yen. I only heard about this for the first time on the bus after the shoot. Of course, purchasing is optional, but I think most people will want the photos taken together, so please keep the additional photo costs in mind.

That said, both the experience and the photos were fantastic, so I am very satisfied. Thank you to the friendly and warm staff! I will definitely participate again when I go to Hawaii!

まずお出迎えから日本人スタッフさんがいたことでかなり安心感がありました。また説明はすべて丁寧で、シュノーケルの使い方、救命胴衣の使い方、見られるイルカの説明など入水前からかなりウキウキする内容でした。そして実際には、スタッフさんのおかげで沢山のイルカや亀を見ることができました！スタッフみなさん本当に一生懸命「ここにイルカがいるよ～！！」などとみんなを先導してくださり素晴らしい時間を過ごすことができました。ただ1点だけ、私が隅々まで説明を読んでいなかったからかもしれませんが、カメラマンさんが随時みんなの写真を撮ってくれます！写真も載せているようにとても素敵でかなり気に入っていますが、値段が高いです・・・５～６千円くらいです。これは撮影終わったバスのなかで初めて聞きました。もちろん購入は自由だそうですが、みんなで撮った写真はほとんどの人がほしくなると思いますので追加で写真代金も念頭においてください。
ですが内容も写真も最高だったので私は大満足です。フレンドリーで温かいスタッフさんありがとうございました！！またハワイに行く際には絶対参加します！
