Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

Great time again!

Reviewed by: Lisa H

This is our 2nd time on the surf bus. Cousin Kevin was great! He catered to all families. Gave us great info on what to look at and eat. I like this tour because I can relax and enjoy rather than driving and having to find parking, buy tickets, and do all the work that I usually have to do!

West Oahu Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watch, Kayak, SUP, Waterslide & Lunch

Swim with Dolphins and Snorkel Review

Reviewed by: John

Overall this was not one of the better snorkel experiences. The boat was too crowded, with 61 snorkelers. The right size for the boat should have been about 40. Especially crowded at the start where people were not allowed on the top deck when leaving port.

The crew try their best to provide a good time. They are energetic and enthusiastic.

Food option was another issue. Basically you get either a cheeseburger or veggie cheeseburger. No other choices. I hate cheese. Since food is pre-made, there is no opportunity for a simple hamburger. Drinks are either water or watered down lemonade, served in tiny cups. Should have had more variety and larger cups. You also can get a bag of chips.

Swimming with the dolphin is basically everyone jump in the water, look down to see a couple dolphins swim by, and then jump right back in the boat.

Snorkeling was not rushed, but the site did not have many fish or varieties of fish.

Water slide was fun. Much more fun than snorkeling.

CLIMB Works Keana Farms - Oahu Zipline Tour with 8 Lines, ATV Ride, Rappel, Skybridge Course

Review of ClimbWorks 8 zip line experience

Reviewed by: John

Good zip line experience with a mix of short and long zip line runs. Was able to go up side down on the majority of the zip lines, although they prefer to save "tricks" for the last 2 zip lines as a surprise.

All lines are dual zip - so you go two at a time. Takes about 2 1/2 hours with 11 people in the group. Guides were fun, helpful, and took some good pictures (separate charge to buy their pictures). They encourage you to take your own pictures too.

Submarine Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Snorkeling Tour from Hawaii Kai

Great experience, but rough seas.

Reviewed by: Lynn

The scooter experience was great. Very unique. If you tend to seasickness go with the first group. Luckily, I did or I don’t think I could have done it. The area where we scootered is rough, and quite a few people got sick. I had hoped to snorkel and swim afterwards, but was too sick. My companions were just fine.
Saw several turtles and different kinds of fish. Also, morning trips are supposed to be calmer than afternoon.

サンドバー天使の海　シュノーケリング＆ウミガメウォッチクルーズ　船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き！＜午前／日本語クルー＞

You can see sea turtles up close! 間近にウミガメも！

Reviewed by: SEN

I had been curious about it for a long time, and this was my first time participating. The sandbar is a wonderful place made up of coral deposits, and standing there gave me a truly strange feeling. We took photos and played beach volleyball with other participants, and before we knew it, it was time for the BBQ hamburger lunch. The hamburgers we made ourselves, topped with pineapple and other ingredients, were exceptional when eaten on the boat.

After that, we went turtle watching from the boat, and then it was time for snorkeling at the snorkeling point. Unfortunately, the visibility wasn't that great, but we encountered turtles underwater, which was incredibly exciting. The Japanese-speaking female guide was friendly, and for some reason, it felt like my family was being slightly marked, but she helped liven up the atmosphere on the boat, and we had a great time.

ずっと気にはなっていたが、今回初めて参加しました。
サンドバーは素敵な場所でサンゴの堆積で出来ている浅瀬という事で、そこに立てば何とも不思議な感覚がありました。写真を撮ったり参加者でビーチバレーをしたりしましたが、あっと言う間にBBQハンバーガーランチとなりました。自分たちでパイナップルなどトッピングして、船の上で食べるハンバーガーは格別なものでした。
その後ウミガメのウォッチングを船上から行い、シュノーケリングポイントでシュノーケリングになりました。
残念ながら視界はそれほど良くありませんでしたが、水中でもウミガメに遭遇し、大興奮でした。
日本語ガイドの女性の方も、気さくな方で、何故か我が家族が少しマークされていた感はありますが、船上も盛り上げていただき、楽しいひと時を過ごせました。

I previously participated in a luau at Hilton on the Big Island, but this was my first time on Oahu. It was a luau on a rooftop surrounded by hotels, and the show was wonderful. If I understood a bit more English, I might have grasped the explanations better, but I still enjoyed the stage performance. After the show, the dancers were also happy to take photos, and it seemed like the kids had a great time. Above all, it really felt like I was in Hawaii.

ハワイでパラセーリング　高さ120m／150mの上空からワイキキとダイアモンドヘッドの絶景を鑑賞！＜ヒルトン・ワイキキ＞

First parasailing! 初パラセーリング！

Reviewed by: d&y

They picked us up on time and took us straight to the yacht harbor. From there, we went quite far out on a cruiser, and that alone was a lot of fun! The tour guide spoke broken Japanese, but I could understand the explanations somewhat! Since it was a special occasion, we went for the 120m option, but it was so high that it was terrifying! However, it was a lot of fun and made for great memories. The view overlooking Waikiki was amazing, and I wanted to capture the scenery from above in photos! If I ever come back to Hawaii, I would definitely like to do it again. I gave a $10 tip to each of the two staff members. The two overseas guests who were with us seemed to have given $5 for both. I purchased the data from the photos taken with a DSLR on an SD card for $35 as a keepsake. I'm looking forward to seeing them on my PC when I get home!

時間通りに迎えにきてくれてそのままヨットハーバーへ。そちらからクルーザーでかなり沖の方までいき、それだけでも楽しかったです！添乗員の方も片言の日本語で何となく説明がわかる感じです！
せっかくだからと120mにしましたが、余りに高くて恐怖でした！でもとても楽しかったし良い思い出になりました。ワイキキを見下ろすような、素晴らしい景色だったので上空からの景色を写真に収めたかったです！またハワイに来ることがあれば是非してみたいです。チップは10ドルずつ、2名の方に渡しました。一緒に乗り合わせていた海外の方は2名分を5ドル渡していた様でした。一眼レフで撮影してくれたデータはSDカードにして、35ドルで買えましたので記念に購入しました。帰ってPCで見るのが楽しみです！

The weather was great, and we were able to see a very beautiful sandbar! The snorkeling spot had strong winds and the water was a bit murky, but we were able to see some fish. The sandbar was deeper than I expected, about knee-deep. I checked a site that predicts the tides to decide when to go, but there were days that seemed deeper, so I think it would be good to confirm and choose a day within the possible range.

天気に恵まれ、とても綺麗なサンドバーが見られました！シュノーケリングのポイントは風が強く少し海は濁りが強かったですが、魚は見ることができました。サンドバーはひざ下くらいの深さで思ったよりも深かったです。潮の満ち引きを予測するサイトを見て決めましたが、もっと深そうな日もあったので、可能な範疇で確認して行く日を決められるといいと思います。

ハンズ・ヒーデマン　サーフィンレッスン

My first surfing experience! 初めてのサーフィン！

Reviewed by: ツキミ

I had no experience with surfing, but I participated with the feeling that it would be cool to surf in Hawaii. I can't speak English, but I think I was able to prepare the minimum necessary because the staff explained the precautions in Japanese during the video before the lesson. I could somewhat understand the lesson through English words. There were 8 of us with 2 instructors, but 4 of us were able to ride the waves right away, so it was effectively 1 instructor for every 2 people. My own performance wasn't great, but I had fun playing in the waves.

サーフィンは未経験でしたが、ハワイでサーフィンができたらカッコいいだろうなぁという感覚で参加しました。
英語は話せませんが、レッスン前のビデオでの注意事項、スタッフさんとが日本語で説明してくれたので必要最低限の準備はできたと思います。

クアロア・ランチ　ジップライン体験（3時間）　最長約400メートル、最大高低差30メートルの谷を駆け抜ける！＜7本／送迎付きプランあり＞

The zip line itself is amazing, and the instructors are friendly. However, the price is too high. ジップライン自体は最高でインストラクターも親切。ただ料金が高すぎる。

Reviewed by: ウィズダム

I used the shuttle service from the hotel. First, I took a small bus from the hotel, then switched to a larger bus to reach the destination. At the site, someone who spoke Japanese provided explanations, but their level was somewhat intermediate, and there were parts where I couldn't understand what they were saying. We gathered at the designated time and traveled to the starting point in a vehicle similar to a Jeep. Three instructors (two men and one woman) helped us put on harnesses and explained the safety instructions in English.

We first walked up to a high point for about 10 minutes, then practiced at 100 meters and 200 meters to get a feel for it. The equipment was secure, and even as someone with a fear of heights, I felt safe and enjoyed myself. The course gradually got longer, ending with a total of seven zip lines and two suspension bridges (which were short and not scary at all). The instructors were very friendly, jokingly asking questions like, "What's your favorite food?" before we slid down and, at the end, "Who do you like among us?" They seemed to have a solid manual, and I felt completely safe as they paid close attention to safety.

The only downside was the cost. Considering the distance from Waikiki and insurance, it might be reasonable, but I think it could be about half of the current price.

ホテルからの送迎サービスを利用。まずホテルから小型バスに乗り，途中で大型バスに乗り換え現地まで移動。現地では日本語がしゃべれる方が説明してくれるのだが中途半端にうまいレベルでところどころ何を言っているのかわからない。指定時間に集合してジーブのような車でスタート地点まで移動。インストラクター３名（男性２，女性１）がハーネスをつけてくれ英語で注意事項を説明。最初に10分ほど高い位置まで歩いて，まず100m，200mで練習して感覚をつかむのだが，装具がしっかりしていて最悪両手を離しても平気で高所恐怖症の私でも安心して楽しめた。徐々に長くなっていき全部でジップライン７回と吊り橋（といっても距離も短くまったく怖くないレベル）２回で終わり。インストラクターの方がとてもフレンドリーで，滑る前に「好きな食べ物は？」とか（最後に）「私たちの中で誰が好きか？」とか冗談まじりに質問してくる。おそらくマニュアルがしっかりしているのだろうが，安全には細心の注意を払ってくれその面ではまったく不安を感じなかった。
唯一残念なのはやはり費用。ワイキキからの移動距離や保険なども込みなのだろうが，現状の半分くらいでもいいと思った。

In Japan, I was able to immerse myself in the magnificent nature, forgetting the time while feeling the pleasant sunlight and breeze. It was an incredibly happy time, and my mother, who joined me, was very satisfied as well. My father, an experienced rider, participated in the advanced course and was also thrilled with horseback riding in Hawaii's stunning nature. Most importantly, I was overjoyed to see my 2-year-old son experience horseback riding for the first time during the 20-minute introductory course, which made me feel his growth. My wife, who had said she might ride if our son couldn't, ultimately didn't get to ride, but she was satisfied watching our son on the horse. Thanks to the very friendly staff, we had the best time.

Additionally, we were able to go sightseeing in the town of Haleiwa along the way (this part was mixed with horseback riding and included a meal, so it was quite rushed at about 1 hour (^o^;), but there was also a separate course just for sightseeing). We also had a great encounter with sea turtles, which you can see with high probability!!!

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　ジャンボスライダーやSUPも楽しめる！＜ランチ付き／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎／日本語または英語ガイド＞

The tour itself was just okay, but... ツアー自体はまあまあですが・・・

Reviewed by: ほんだびーと

There was a bit of trouble with the operating company at the meeting point. We arrived at the meeting location more than five minutes before the scheduled time. Then, a flashy bus with the "Dolphin & You" logo passed right in front of us, and thinking we had been left behind, we hurried to chase after it, but it just kept going. Since we had minimal luggage and didn't have our smartphones, we had no choice but to return to the hotel, where we received a call from the operating company... They said they had come to pick us up at the meeting point but since we weren't there, we could no longer participate in the tour.

Actually, the bus we chased after was a different bus picking up Western guests, while Japanese guests were supposed to be picked up by a smaller van (a plain white bus without the operating company's name or logo), which apparently arrived quite late on the day of the tour. Despite this, the operating company said, "Since this is a cancellation on your part, we cannot issue a refund. If you want to participate, please take a taxi to the harbor." I thought it was unreasonable to ask us to take a taxi to a location that takes an hour by car, and when I expressed my frustration asking, "Is this really our responsibility???" they reluctantly agreed to send someone to pick us up.

On the morning of the tour, a confirmation call was made to the hotel, but the staff member was not fluent in Japanese and did not provide detailed information during the prior call. Therefore, I recommend confirming what kind of bus will come to pick you up on the day of the tour.

Once we got on the boat, I thought the staff members were very kind and helpful. There were also staff members who spoke Japanese fluently. They were very high-energy, which might be a bit overwhelming if you’re feeling unwell. In my case, I think the strong winds contributed to my discomfort, and I felt that snorkeling might be tough for small children... My child cried a lot during the first attempt and couldn't handle it. Dolphins can only be seen underwater as dark shadows, so it might be better for children to see them from the boat.

I also brought an underwater camera, but it's quite difficult unless you're a good swimmer. Regarding clothing, I wore a rash guard and tights, and I think that was sufficient without needing to rent a wetsuit (the rental wetsuits are short types). As for belongings, you should definitely borrow a bath towel from the hotel and bring it with you. It can get a bit chilly on the way back, so it's better to take off wet rash guards and dry off with the bath towel before putting on a dry shirt.

As for tipping, which can be confusing for Japanese people, it didn't seem like it was strictly enforced. The Q&A section on the operating company's website also mentions that a small gesture is sufficient. I hope this information is helpful to everyone.

集合時に運営会社と少しとトラブルになりました。
私たちは集合場所に待ち合わせ時間の5分以上前から来ていました。
すると「ドルフィン＆ユー」のロゴが描かれた派手めのバスが目の前を通り過ぎてしまったので、置いて行かれたと思い、慌てて追いかけたのですが、そのまま行ってしまいました。
荷物も最小限で、スマホも持っていなかったので、仕方なくホテルに戻ったところ、運営会社から電話が・・・。集合場所にピックアップにきたが、いないのでもうツアーには参加できないとのことでした。
実は我々が追いかけたバスは、欧米人客を拾っていく別便のバスで、日本人客はそれよりは小さいバンのようなバス（運営会社名もロゴもない、真っ白なバスです）が拾っていくことになってたらしいのですが、当日それが待ち合わせ時間よりもかなり遅れてきたのです。
・・・にも関わらず、運営会社がいうには、「そちらの都合のキャンセルなので、返金には応じられない。参加したければ、タクシーでハーバーまで来てください。」とのことでした。
車で1時間もかかるところに、タクシーで来いというのもどうかと思いますし、さすがに「それってこちらの責任なのですか？？？」と憤ったところ、渋々なんとか迎えにきてくれました。

当日の朝に確認の電話がホテルに掛かってきますが、そのときのスタッフは日本語が堪能ではなく、事前の電話でそこまで詳細な情報までは教えてはくれませんでした。
ですので、当日はどんなバスが迎えにくるのかを必ず確認された方がいいと思います。
　
船に乗ってからは、スタッフの皆さんとても親切で良かったと思います。
日本語がとても流暢なスタッフもいました。
とてもハイテンションなので、気分が悪くなるとちょっとしんどいかもしれません。
私の場合は、結構風が強かったのも原因かと思いますが、シュノーケリングは小さいお子さんは厳しいかも・・・という印象でした。
うちの子は、1回目で大泣きでダメでした。
イルカは水中で見ても、黒い影のようにしか見えないので、子供は船上で見た方がいいかもしれません。
あと水中カメラを持っていきましたが、泳ぎが得意な方でないとなかなか難しいです。
あと服装ですが、私はラッシュカードとタイツをはいて行きましたが、ウエットスーツ（貸しウエットスーツは短パンタイプです）を借りなくても、これで十分だと思いました。
荷物としては、バスタオルはホテルで借りて必ず持っていくべきでしょう。やはり帰りはちょっと寒いので、ぬれたラッシュガードなどは脱いで、バスタオルで体を拭って、乾いたシャツ等を着る方がいいと思います。

日本人が戸惑うチップですが、そんなにきっちり払っている感じはなかったです。運営会社HPのQ&Aにも書いてありますが、気持ち程度でいいと思います。
皆さんの参考になればと思います。

サンドバー　キャプテンブルース　天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ　SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも！＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞

The color of the sea is just as I imagined! 思った通りの海の色！

Reviewed by: ふみちゃん

The weather was wonderful, and the color of the sea was just as I expected! I was worried if my elderly mother would enjoy it, but when we got off the boat and walked in the shallow water, she was satisfied to see sea turtles and fish up close.

I was the only one who went snorkeling, but the sea turtles came so close that I could almost reach out to them! It was a happy moment where we could gaze at each other without touching.

If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate!

お天気にも恵まれて、思った通りの海の色でした！高齢の母が楽しめるか心配でしたが、船から降りて、浅瀬を歩くと、海亀や魚がすぐ近くで見れて満足してました^_^
私だけスノーケリングしましたが、海亀は本当に手が届くところまで近づいてきてくれました！触らないように、でも見つめ合える幸せな時間でした。
また、ハワイに行く機会があったら、参加したいです！

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング　ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー　貸切プランあり＜半日＞

I had a great time! とても楽しかったです！

Reviewed by: koume

Unfortunately, the weather was a bit bad and we couldn't go out to the sea, so we didn't get to see the sea turtles. However, we were able to see a lot of fish like Nemo! The Japanese guide, Chieko, and her partner, Dan, provided great support for us!

残念ながら天候が少し悪く沖まで出られず、ウミガメには会えませんでしたが、
ニモみたいなお魚をたくさん見れました！
日本人ガイドのちえこさんもパートナーのダンさんも、日本人をしっかりサポートしてくれます！

Guided Stargazing Tour Led by NASA Ambassador Astronomer at the Ko Olina Resorts

Amazing Stargazing Presentation

Reviewed by: ALQ

We arrived at the scheduled time and greeted by our NASA ambassador, astronomer, Greg.
He was so enthusiastic and pointed so many amazing things to see in the night sky. My favorite was seeing Saturn! The GPS telescope was very impressive.
It was a beautiful location to learn about the stars, planets, and our solar galaxy as the sun went down over the horizon.
We will be back!
