Ask to do the "Deep Drop" with the wild dolphins. You're not supposed to, but it's a once in a lifetime experience! Absolutely amazing to see them underwater!

Weather didn't cooperate

Reviewed by: Washington Mom

This probably would have been much better if it hadn't been so windy & rainy. Nevertheless, my family had a good time, the food was very good, and the staff friendly & accomadating. The trampoline was pretty cool and my 7 year old enjoyed it. My older daughter did the snorkel tour and said it was ok.

Reviewed by: ドリーミィ

In mid-February, I participated alone. I quickly became friendly with two other solo participants and had a great time. The staff were also enjoyable and helped create a lively atmosphere. Next time, I want to learn from a very charming female photographer and participate in a way that allows me to dive deeper and longer.

2月中旬、一人で参加しました。
すぐに、一人参加の二名の方々とうちとけ、
楽しく過ごせました。
スタッフの方々も、楽しく、盛り上げてくれました。
次回は、とってもチャーミングな女性カメラマンを見習い、もっと深く、長く、潜れるようになって参加したいです。

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

The best activity in Hawaii we had

Reviewed by: Rob

This was just an awesome day. Our captain was a really cool guy and was very knowledgeable about dolphins. He managed to find some Whales annd dolphins shortly after that. He dropped us off in the water, close enough to see the dolphins. This trip is really worth the money. We swam whith loads of fishes as well as turtles.
The only negative thing was the driver that took us to the harbour. He was 40 minutes late and really rude. The driver on the way back was funny and in a good mood.
Overall we are so glad to have done this activity.

what a great day........

Reviewed by: the schneider family

We are a family of six, ages 16,18,20,22,48,and 49. This was the best activity we did in Hawaii. We swam with dolphins in the wild, saw a shark while snorkling, fed hundreds of fish, saw beautiful coral, and even watch a whale pretty close up. This trip was amazing. The captain (a woman) was the best person and tried her hardest to please everyone and I think she did. Extremely organized, clean, pleasant, and exciting was this trip. It would be the first trip to book on my next trip. Some of the other trips we did were Zipling, Tubing, Hikes, Helecopter, Small plane, among others. The best was this one........ Thanks for the great memories. Here some pictures I hope you enjoy.

I had a really great time! ホントに楽しかった!

Reviewed by: FUKUDAファミリー

We participated as a family of four on Christmas Day. This has been our annual tradition of traveling to Hawaii for the past ten years, and for the last two or three years, we had been really interested in the dolphin tour. I'm so glad we decided to sign up this time. My daughters (22 and 20 years old) were truly thrilled to see such cute dolphins so close... They were really impressed, saying it was a tour that perfectly matched the name Dolphin You "Dolphins and Me"! When we got on the boat, it was incredibly cold, but the warm hospitality from the staff and the delicious cheese taro burgers we had, along with sweet cakes for Christmas, made us feel pampered. Everyone was very satisfied with Dolphin You. If we have the chance, we would love to join this tour again! Thank you very much.

家族4名でクリスマスの日に参加。10年前からの、毎年恒例のハワイ旅行で、ここ2、3年、ずーっと気になってたイルカツアー。思い切って今回申し込んでよかったです。娘達は(22歳、20歳)可愛いいイルカがあんなに直ぐ側で見られるなんて・・・とホントに大感激しておりました。まさに、ドルフィンユー「イルカとわたし」のネーミングにぴったりなツアーだ!と妙に感心しておりました~♪船にあがると、ものすごく、寒かったですけど、暖かいスタッフの皆様のおもてなしと、美味しいチーズたろいものバーガーをいただいたり、クリスマスということで、甘いケーキまで、ご馳走になり、何から何まで、至れりつくせりのドルフィンユーにみんな大満足でした。機会があれば、また、このツアーに参加したいです!!ありがとうございました。

This time, my husband and our sons, who are in first and sixth grade, participated. They seemed very happy to see a pod of wild dolphins up close, which they had been looking forward to. They were also impressed by the sea turtles, beautiful fish, and the clear ocean. They happily talked about how delicious the hamburger made with taro bread was, which they ate on the boat, and how they danced the hula after getting off the boat.

During this trip, I let the kids experience various activities, but the most fun thing they both said was the "dolphin tour!" I'm glad we participated.

今回、夫と小1・小6の息子たちが参加しました。
楽しみにしていた野生のイルカの群れを間近に見ることができて、とてもうれしかったようです。
また、海ガメやきれいな魚たち、透き通った海に感動していました。
また、船の上で食べたタロイモのパンで作ったハンバーガーがとても美味しかった事、船を降りてからフラダンスを踊ったことを楽しそうに話してくれました。

今回の旅行では子供達にいろいろ体験させたのですが、一番楽しかったことは「イルカツアー!」と二人揃って言っていました。参加させてよかったと思います。

might have been really great if...

Reviewed by: Chuck and Cindy

the sun was shining, the wind was blowing, the dolphins were swimming, the reef was closer to the surface. But it wasn't, not any. No sailing because of no wind. No sun. No dolphins. I'm near sighted, so the reef, in the sunless water, was too darn deep for me to really see. Got a re-ride ticket - but what good is that going to do me? This was a once in a lifetime trip. I didn't score it worse, cause the "catatonics" helped my mood, and I absolutely love the ocean, no matter what.

I was a bit nervous since I easily get seasick and can't swim, but the friendly atmosphere created by the staff, the encounters with the dolphins and turtles, and the delicious hamburgers made it a wonderful experience!

It was moving!! 感動~!!

Reviewed by: Kailani

I had been curious about the tour where you can swim with dolphins for a long time. Previously, I participated in a "dolphin watching tour" where I could only see dolphins from a boat. It was enjoyable, but just watching felt a bit unsatisfying, so I definitely wanted to join a tour where I could swim with dolphins next time.

After considering various tours, I was drawn to this one not only because you can swim with dolphins, but also because it includes a "chant" (prayer) before entering the water and hula lessons, allowing me to experience Hawaiian culture. I decided to sign up. I was a bit anxious about participating alone, but once I got into the water, I forgot all about that, and when I saw the dolphins up close, all my worries disappeared!

They picked me up early in the morning from a nearby hotel, and after about an hour, I was moved by the sunrise over Diamond Head that I could see from the car. My anticipation for the tour grew. As soon as we arrived at the harbor, we boarded the boat. The staff welcomed us with ukulele music. After chanting and offering flowers to the sea, dolphins quickly gathered around the boat, and we jumped into the water right away.

I was truly amazed to see dolphins swimming so close! There were about 30 of them, including mother and baby dolphins. The water was beautiful, and I could see all the way to the bottom just with snorkeling. At that time, I was also able to see honu (sea turtles) and rays!

On the boat, the staff entertained us with various performances.

This experience will definitely be unforgettable in my life. I truly felt it was worth participating.

ずっ~と前から気になっていたイルカと一緒に泳げるツアー。
以前、単なる船上からイルカを見る「イルカウォッチングのツアー」に参加した事があったのですが、楽しくはあったけど、見るだけではなんだか物足りなさを感じ、次回は絶対自分も一緒にイルカと泳げるツアーに参加したいと思っていました。
そして色々なツアーを検討した結果、こちらのツアーの、イルカと一緒に泳げるのはもちろん、海に入る前に「チャント(お祈り)」をするところや、フラレッスン等、ハワイの文化にも触れられる事に魅力を感じ、申し込みする事に決めました。
今回は一人での参加で楽しめるのかどうか不安もありましたが、実際に海に入ってしまえばそんな事は気にならず、イルカを目の前にしたら、そんな不安も吹き飛びました!

早朝近くのホテルまで迎えに来てくれ、そこから約1時間、
途中、車の中から見えたダイアモンドヘッドの朝焼けにも感動。これからのツアーの期待が膨らみました。
港に着きすぐに乗船。スタッフがウクレレを演奏し私達を迎えてくれました。
そして、チャントを唱えお花を海に捧げると、すぐにイルカ達が船の周りに集まっていて、早速海に飛び込みます。

本当に間近をイルカ達が泳いでいるのに感動!!
しかも30頭ぐらいの大群。親子のイルカもいました。
海も綺麗で、シュノーケルだけでも充分海の底まで見えます。
この時は、イルカの他にホヌ(海亀)や、エイなども見ることができました!!

船上でも、スタッフの方達が色々なパフォーマンスをしてくれ、私たちを楽しませてくれました。

この感動は、人生の中でも忘れられないものになると思います。
本当に参加して良かったと思いました。

Absolutely! Highly recommended!! 絶対!オススメ!!

Reviewed by: Yoshimi

You absolutely have to participate!! For everyone going to Hawaii!!

Even if you're hesitant because of the price, you will have an experience that is worth it, or even more than that. Don't worry if you can't speak English! It's fine to go alone!! By the way, this is my fifth time participating, and it was my first time going alone, but I thought I want to go again. Of course, I can't speak English. But I was able to communicate a lot with the boat staff and had a great time.

I definitely encountered dolphins all five times. This time, the dolphin was a bottlenose dolphin, which is different from the spinner dolphins I swam with before, but it was so impressive!! We made eye contact underwater!! They were looking at me, glancing back and forth♪ Not just one, but many!! It was moving. I could clearly hear the dolphins' voices too.

As a bonus, there is a dedicated photographer on board, so they capture great photos on the boat and underwater. It's a separate fee for purchasing, but it's the perfect keepsake for memories!!

This tour is something you can truly enjoy, whether with family, a partner, friends, or even alone like I did!! If you have even a little interest, you absolutely have to go; otherwise, you'll miss out on life!!!

 絶対に参加するべきですよ!!ハワイに行かれる皆さん!!

お値段で躊躇してしまった方もそれに見合った、いやそれ以上の体験ができます。
英語ができなくっても大丈夫!一人でも大丈夫!!
ちなみに今回で私は5回目の参加で初の一人でしたが、また行こうって思いました。もちろん英語はできません。でもボートスタッフの方ともたくさんコミュニケーションとれて楽しい時間が過ごせました。

5回全部確実にイルカちゃんに遭遇しましたよ。
今回のイルカちゃんは今まで一緒に泳いだスピナーちゃんとは種類が違うバンドーイルカちゃんでしたが、迫力満点!!海の中で目が合うの!!こっちを、ちらっちらっって♪1頭じゃなくって何頭も!!感動でした。イルカちゃん達の声もしっかり聞えるし。

おまけに、専属カメラマンさんが同乗しているのでボートの上での写真や海の中での写真などしっかり抑えてくれてます。購入する形なので別料金が必要ですが思い出には最高の品ですよ!!

家族と恋人と友達とはもちろん今回の私みたいに一人でも心から楽しめるTourですよーー!!
少しでも興味をもった方は絶対に行かないと人生損です!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Wonderful fun to see the different animals, but do NOT make this your very first snorkeling experience on the island, nor your only experience looking at fish. Don't make it your first because it is a little intense (you have to jump off the back of the moving boat *into* the pod of dolphins) if you are not comfortable snorkeling. The time it takes to see the dolphins and turtles short-changes the fish experience a bit, but is absolutely worth it.

This time, we came to Hawaii as a family for a wedding. We thought about doing some family activities, so we participated in a tour with Dolphin and You. I was a bit anxious since we had my 4-year-old nephew with us, but he was very happy to ride in a kayak and see dolphins up close, which relieved me!

There were many dolphins, sea turtles, and tropical fish swimming nearby, and it was very moving. The staff was also very friendly and attentive, making it a really enjoyable activity. The BBQ burgers they grilled on the boat were also very delicious. The hula lesson was a lot of fun too. I highly recommend this tour for anyone going to Hawaii.

Additionally, they offered to sell a DVD and a photo CD-ROM, and when I got home and looked at the photos, they turned out beautifully, which was truly moving again.

今回は結婚式のために家族でハワイにきました。何か家族でアクティビティーが出来ないかと思い今回ドルフィンアンドユーさんのツアーに参加しました。4歳の甥っ子もいたので少し不安でもありましたが、カヤックに乗せてもらって近くでいるかも見ることが出来とても喜んでいた様子でほっとしました!

近くでイルカや海がめ熱帯魚もたくさん泳いでいてとても感動しました。またスタッフの方もとてもフレンドリーでこまめに気を使っていただきとても楽しいアクティビティーとなりました。船の上で焼いてもらったBBQバーガーもとっても美味しかったです。フラのレッスンもとても楽しかったです。
ハワイに行かれる方にはかなりおすすめのツアーでした。

あと、DVDと写真のCD-ROMを販売していただけたのですが、家に帰って写真をみてすごくきれいにうつっていてまた改めて感動しました。

This time, I signed up for this tour because I wanted to meet dolphins. It was my parents' first trip to Hawaii (their second overseas trip), and my mother was nervous because she couldn't swim, but the staff were very kind and made it enjoyable for us. Their attention to detail was excellent, and both my parents and we had a great time. My father was moved to see dolphins and many colorful fish up close while snorkeling. We were also very happy to see our parents enjoying themselves!!

We had experience diving and swimming with dolphins before, but meeting dolphins is something we can enjoy no matter how many times we do it! The cheeseburgers made by the captain were also very delicious.

今回、イルカに会いたくてこのツアーに申し込みました。両親も始めてのハワイ旅行(海外2回目)で、母は泳げず緊張していましたが、スタッフの方がとても親切で楽しませてくれ、心配りも最高で、両親も私たちもとても楽しむことができました。父は、イルカやシュノーケルでたくさんのカラフルな魚を近くで見て、感動していました。私たちもそんな両親の姿をみてとてもうれしかったです!!

A series of surprises!! オドロキの連続!!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I had only moderate expectations for this tour, wondering if I would even get to see dolphins. I apologize for underestimating it!

From the moment we boarded, the staff was energetic, and after a brief prayer for our journey, dolphins appeared almost immediately! My 6-year-old son, who was snorkeling for the first time, dashed down the boat's stairs and jumped into the sea. We saw dolphins spinning on the surface, and underwater, there was a dolphin right in front of us... doing its business?! Before we knew it, our child had paddled far away in a kayak.

The clarity of the water, the proximity and number of dolphins, the variety of fish, and the staff's service (not just energetic but also kind and attentive) were all top-notch!

I participated in a snorkeling tour at a different location on another day, but none of those experiences could compare to this one. The hamburgers we had on the boat were delicious. Even the "hula lesson," which I thought would be just a bonus, turned out to be quite enjoyable. My swimsuit dried nicely too!

It's undeniable that this trip created the most fun memories for our entire family.

イルカに会えるかな~、程度の期待だったこのツアー。
軽くみてました ゴメンナサイ(#^_^#)

乗船からノリノリのスタッフ、旅立ちの祈りもそこそこに
もうイルカが出現!!
シュノーケリング初体験の6歳の息子まで、船の階段を駆け下りて海に飛び込んでました。
海面では複数でイルカスピン!!海の中では目の前でイルカがウンチ??

水のキレイさ、イルカとの距離の近さ・数、魚の種類の多さ、スタッフの対応(ノリだけじゃなく、親切でいきとどいてました)

別の日に異なる場所でのシュノーケリングツアーにも参加しましたが、上記のいずれも点数は下がります。

We had such a great time! The staff was amazing. The captain was so funny & his staff really made you feel welcome and prepared. I was especially impressed that one of his staff members was multi-lingual and was able to explain what we were doing in both English & Japanese. It was so cool to see the dolphins jumping around the boat and just amzing to actually be floating above several doplphins in the open ocean.

The snorkleing was amazing too. I have never seen so many different types of fish & we even got to hang out & watch a huge turtle. At the end they give you a good deli style lunch and show off the slide show, which is for purchase,from the outing. This was an amazing excursion. I would recommend it to anyone going to HI, but I would suggest that people pratcice snorkleing before they go. The open ocean in choppy water is really no place for a 1st time snorkler. Other than that I would say this is an activity you should not miss!

The experience of swimming with dolphins. イルカと泳ぐ、という経験

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

It was so much fun! That's definitely my impression. Swimming with a pod of dolphins is an experience you can't easily have. Since returning to Japan, I've been showing photos to all my friends and recommending it. If you go to Hawaii, you must do this! The Japanese and local staff were all very kind, which was a big plus. It was also a wonderful memory to pray together and dance the hula in Hawaii. Looking at the photos still makes me smile, as everyone in Hawaii is so cheerful. Thanks to the staff's enthusiasm, the travel felt quick and effortless, and even though it was my seventh time on Oahu, it was my first time in West Oahu, which was great. I really understood that Oahu is not just about Waikiki, the North Shore, or Hanauma Bay. The ocean surrounding the island is beautiful from every direction. It was also great to swim with sea turtles, not just dolphins. The water clarity was higher than that of the Red Sea or Caribbean, and there are unique tropical fish in Hawaii, so it never gets boring. You absolutely must participate!

楽しかった!絶対参加すべき!ってのが私の感想です。イルカの群と泳ぐ経験はなかなかできるもんじゃありません~。日本に帰ってから友達みんなに写真を見せてお薦めしています。ハワイに行ったら是非!日本人やローカルのスタッフもみんな親切だったのも二重丸。一緒にハワイのお祈りしたり、フラダンスを踊ったのも素敵な思い出です。ハワイの人ってみんな陽気だな~って写真見ながら今でも顔が笑ってしまいます。スタッフのテンションのお陰で移動もあっと言う間で何とも感じなかったし、オアフ島7回目の私も西オアフは初めてだったのでそこも良かったなあ。オアフ島はワイキキやノースショアやハナウマベイだけじゃないってことがよーく分かりました。四方を囲んでいる海は東西南北どこも素敵ってことでした。それとイルカだけじゃなくて海亀と一緒に泳げたのも良かったです。透明度は紅海かカリブ海よりも高かったし、熱帯魚もハワイの固有魚がいるので飽きません。絶対参加すべし!

Wild dolphins! 野生のドルフィン!

Reviewed by: ねこきっく

I participated in this activity in early July 2008. The Japanese female guide was incredibly kind and friendly, which set a fun mood right from the hotel pickup. All the customers were Japanese. We moved west on Oahu in a van that could accommodate about 25 people. It was a comfortable drive, and before I knew it, we arrived. There was a restroom break before boarding the boat, which was great!

Just about 15 minutes after we set off on the boat, we spotted a pod of dolphins! Following our strong local guide, we went snorkeling. At first, the dolphins didn't come close, but after a while, one jumped right in front of us! They swirled around underwater, and it was incredibly exciting. After swimming with the dolphins, we went to a snorkeling spot where we saw three sea turtles. There were also many beautiful fish. Once we got out of the water, it was time for a hamburger made with taro bread! The scenery was beautiful, and after seeing the dolphins, tropical fish, and sea turtles, I was in the best mood! It was a fulfilling morning. Even after returning to Waikiki, I was still buzzing from the encounter with the dolphins.

2008年7月上旬に参加してきました。ガイドの日本人女性が凄く親切&フレンドリーでホテルの迎えの時点で楽しい気分に。お客さんは全員日本人でした。25人ぐらい乗る事のできるバンでオアフ島の西に移動。快適な運転で外の景色を見ていたらあっと言う間に到着しました。ボートに乗る前にトイレ休憩があったのもGOOD!ボートで出発して僅か15分ぐらいでドルフィンの群が!ローカルのたくましいガイドの後についてシュノーケリングをしました。最初は近くに寄ってこなかったけれど、暫くすると目の前でイルカがジャンプ!水中でもグルグル回って、物凄く興奮しました。イルカと一緒に泳いだ後は、シュノーケリングのポイント。ここで海亀が3匹いました。魚も綺麗でたくさんいました。海から上がるとタロイモのパンでできたハンバーガータイム!景色は綺麗だし、ドルフィンや熱帯魚や海亀を見た後だから気分は最高!充実した午前中でした。ワイキキに戻ってからもドルフィンに出会えた余韻が残ったままでしたよ~。

It was a very enjoyable and satisfying tour! Once we boarded the boat, we prayed to the sea to see dolphins. Each person threw a plumeria flower into the sea to start the tour! As soon as we spotted dolphins, we dove into the water and were able to see the pod right below us. For those who didn't see them the first time, we were allowed to dive again. After that, we had the freedom to swim at a point where there were turtles! We could also go canoeing. During the canoeing, the staff sang songs for us, which was very soothing (o´∀`o). The hula dance instructor also taught us, making it a very fulfilling trip. Thank you so much! ♥

船に乗り込んだら、イルカにあえるように海にお祈りをします。一人ずつプルメリアの花を海に投げてツアーがスタートします!イルカを見つけたらすぐ海に潜り、イルカの群れを真下に見ることができました。一回で見れなかった人のために、二回も潜らせていてだきました。その後も、亀のいるポイントで自由にスイム!また、カヌーもできます。カヌーの最中にスタッフの方が歌を歌ってくれて、とても癒されました(o´∀`o) フラダンスも先生が教えてくださり、とても充実した旅になりました♡ありがとうございました♪

This became my best memory of Hawaii! 今回のハワイで一番の思い出になりました!

The tour I participated in, filled with excitement and anticipation, was just as I expected. It was my first encounter with wild dolphins. I was so captivated that I tried to mimic their unique sounds, and it felt like a mystical experience. After that, we moved to a snorkeling spot where I encountered a sea turtle that was incredibly cute and soothing. I also got to ride on a sea kayak and observe tropical fish while snorkeling. Just when I was exhausted from playing and feeling very hungry, the smell of pâté being grilled wafted from the boat, which was just perfect! I definitely want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii. Thank you very much.

ワクワクドキドキで参加した今回のツアーは期待通りのグレイとなツアーでした。初めての野生のドルフィンとの遭遇。夢中になって姿を覆ったりイルカ特有の鳴き声を真似してみたりw何だか神秘的な体験でした。そのあとシュノーケリングのポイントに移動して出会った海亀もとってもかわいくてのほほんと癒されたし、シーカヤックに乗せてもらったりシュノーケリングで熱帯魚を観察したり、遊び疲れてお腹ぺこぺこになったくらいにちょうど船の上からパテを焼く香りが漂ってもう最高!またハワイに行った際にはぜひ参加したいと思います。ありがとうございました。

In a word, it was a truly, truly enjoyable and satisfying tour. The staff was very friendly and fun, and the Japanese female guide was professional! Her work was trustworthy. This was my second time participating in this tour, and I once again felt that it truly is Alan Wong. I was healed by the dolphins, healed by the turtles, and after having a blast, I filled my stomach with the long-awaited hamburgers, and finally enjoyed the hula, making it a fulfilling tour. Even though it was the same tour, I definitely want to participate again when I go to Hawaii. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

一言でいえば本当に本当に楽しい大満足のツアーでした。スタッフの対応もとてもフレンドリーで楽しかったし、ガイドの日本人女性の方はプロフェッショナル!信頼できる仕事っぷりでした。これでこちらのツアーに参加するのは2度目なのですが、さすがはアランワンだなーともう一度実感したツアーでした。イルカに癒され、カメに癒され、目一杯楽しく遊んだ後は、お待ちかねのハンバーガーでお腹も満たされ、最後にフラに楽しませてもらった充実なツアーでした。同じツアーでもまたハワイに行った際は是非参加したいと思います。この度は素敵な思い出をありがとうございました。

It was piled high. てんこ盛りでした

Reviewed by: summer

I participated with my daughter, and when we spotted a pod of dolphins from the boat, I couldn't help but point my camera at them. We also fed fish, and colorful fish gathered around us; it was truly a dream-like experience.

I tend to get seasick easily, so I felt a bit unwell during the trip and unfortunately couldn't enjoy the hamburger. If you're prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must. Also, don't forget your underwater camera.

During the hula dance lesson, we had a lot of fun laughing together. It was such an enjoyable lesson that it could inspire someone to start hula dancing. With everything packed into half a day, I have no complaints.

娘と二人で参加したのですが、イルカの群れを船上から発見したときは思わずカメラを向けてしまいました。他にも魚にパンをあげて色とりどりの魚が寄ってきたり、本当に夢のような時間でした。
私は船酔いがしやすいので、途中ちょっと具合が悪くなってしまったので、せっかくのハンバーガーを食べれなかったのが残念です。
酔いやすい方は酔い止めは必須です。あと、水中カメラをお忘れなく。
フラダンスのレッスンでは、笑いを交えながら皆で楽しく受けることができました。フラダンスを始めるきっかけになるような、そんな楽しいレッスンでした。
半日でこれだけ盛り込まれていれば文句はないです。

It was moving!! 感動でした!!

I encountered wild dolphins for the first time on this tour. Although I missed them the first time, I was able to see them successfully at the next spot. Additionally, at the following point, I was able to see sea turtles as well, so overall, I was very satisfied with the tour.

However, I felt that putting on the snorkeling gear and swimming multiple times was a bit physically demanding.

The hamburgers and mangoes we had on the boat were perfect for my tired body.

I think the final hula dance lesson, taught by a local instructor, was a wonderful time filled with laughter.

このツアーで初めて野生のイルカと出会いました。一度目は失敗してしまいましたが、次のポイントで無事見ることができました。また、その次のポイントでは海ガメも見ることができたのでツアー全体としてはとても満足でした。
しかし、何度もシュノーケリングを装着したり、泳いだりするのは体力的にもちょっと大変だった気もします。
船上で食べるハンバーガーとマンゴーは疲れた身体に最適でした。
最後のフラダンスのレッスンは、現地の先生に教えてもらうことができ、笑いのたえないとても素敵な時間を過ごすことができてよかったと思います。

Highlight of our trip

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

this is THE highlight of our hawaiian vacation. i've been to O'ahu once, but never been to the west side. the views were awesome.

we were very lucky to see a pod of spinner dolpins within 30min of our departure. i can still remember the sound of dolphins in the water! that's something you will never forget. this tour lived up to its expectations and more. on the 2nd snorkel spot, we swam with three sea turtles! it's the underwater heaven there.

you MUST do this when you are in hawaii. unforgetable!

I apologize for the delay in my post. In March, my husband, my daughter (who is 8 years old), and I participated in the snorkeling activity. It was our first time snorkeling, so we were a bit scared until we got used to it. The staff kindly pushed us from behind to help us swim and took us to great spots. They were also very kind to my daughter on the boat, and I was really touched by the staff's thoughtful care. When dolphins swam very close, I got distracted by my daughter and hurriedly dove in, and we were able to see a group of dolphins. My husband was thrilled to see them up close. We also got to see small fish and turtle eggs. Since it was whale season, we were excited to see whales swimming gracefully and even witnessed a whale jump. I definitely want to participate again when we visit Hawaii. Thank you very much!

ずいぶんおくれての書き込みで失礼致します 3月に主人 私 娘8歳の3人で参加させていただきました シュノーケルは私と娘は初めてでしたので 慣れるまでは少し怖かったのですが なかなか前に進めない私たちを後ろから押して泳いでくださり いいポイントまで連れて行ってくださったり 船の上でも子供にもとても親切にしていただき スタッフの皆さんの優しい心遣いがとてもうれしかったです イルカがとても近くを泳いでいるときに娘に気をとられていて あわててもぐり イルカの群れを見れました 主人はとても近くで見れたと大喜びしていました 小さな魚や海亀のたまごも見ることができました そして 鯨の時期でもあったので 鯨がゆうゆうと泳ぐ姿 鯨ジャンプまで見れ興奮しました またハワイに行った際には 是非参加させていただきたいと思っています ありがとうございました

Awesome experience!!!

My boyfriend and I had an awesome and amazing time on this activity! Captain Mark and his crew were great and explained everything to us first time snorkelers! We got to be so close to the dolphins and sea turtles, and the fish were beautiful! We already decided the next time we are in Oahu we will do this again!
