Oahu
This tour offers an experience that you absolutely cannot have on your own. The captain searched for wild dolphins, found the spots, and stopped the boat, which I thought was amazing. Dolphins are smart and swim fast, so we desperately chased after them, making it not easy to spot them. However, the excitement of seeing dolphins in the ocean made it all worthwhile. The guide and crew were friendly and kind, which made the experience enjoyable, and I am grateful for that. Our guide, Karen, is from Hawaii, but her Japanese is very good, and you can really feel her love for Hawaii. I thought she was such a lovely person! Thank you so much for this precious experience. MAHALO~♪
個人では、絶対に出来ない体験が出来るツアーです。船長さんが野生のイルカを探しながら、ポイントを見つけて、船を止めてくれて、スゴイなと思いました。イルカも賢いし、泳ぐのも速いから、私達も必死で泳ぎながら追いかけて、イルカを見つけるのは簡単ではなかったけど、その分、海の中でイルカを見れた時の感動は大きかったです。ガイドさんやクルーの方達もフレンドリー&親切で楽しかったし、感謝してます。ガイドのカレンさんはハワイ出身だけど、日本語がとても上手&とてもハワイを愛してるのを感じられて、可愛い人だなぁ〜と思いました。貴重な体験、どうもありがとうございました。MAHALO〜♪
The cruising experience was very enjoyable and beautiful! The food wasn't in a wide variety, but it was tastier than I expected! The view outside was amazing ☺️ However, the air conditioning inside the ship was too cold, and I froze! A jacket is definitely a must!
クルージングはとても楽しく、綺麗でした!
ご飯も種類はたくさんではありませんでしたが、想像よりは美味しくいただけました!
外の景色は最高です☺️
しかし、船内の空調が寒すぎて凍えました!
上着は、必須ですね!
Aloha! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the cruise at the very unique and beautiful location in Waikiki. Thank you for sharing your experience and recommendations. We hope to see you again in the future. Mahalo!
アロハ!ワイキキの非常に個性的で美しい場所でのクルーズを楽しんでいただけたことを嬉しく思います。あなたの経験と推奨事項を共有していただきありがとうございます。将来またご参加ください。マハロ!
This time, I participated with my family!
We chose the all-you-can-drink course with appetizers!
If you like alcohol, I recommend this course!
You can enjoy various drinks like beer, champagne, and cocktails.
The food was delicious too!
I'm glad we chose the fireworks on Friday.
However, the waiting time until the fireworks is a bit long, so it might get boring!
But the cruise was truly a wonderful experience and became the best memory.
Thank you!
今回家族での参加でした!
アピタイザー付き飲み放題のコースにしました!
お酒が好きな方はこのコースはオススメです!
ビール、シャンパン、カクテルなどが色々飲めます^ ^
食事もおいしかったですよ!
金曜日の花火を選択して良かったです(^^)
ただ花火までの待ち時間が少し長いので、退屈するかもしれません!
ですがクルーズは本当に素敵な時間で最高の思い出になりました(^^)
ありがとうございました!
Aloha! Thank you for sharing your experience. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the food and drinks! We hope you and your family will join us again soon! Mahalo!
アロハ!あなたの経験を共有してくれてありがとう、私たちはあなたが食べ物と飲み物を楽しんでくれてうれしいです!あなたとあなたの家族がすぐに再び参加することを願っています!マハロ!
I participated in my first Hawaii trip five years ago, and it became my best memory, so I joined again without hesitation this time! We were able to see dolphins and turtles again! The staff, especially Shohta who speaks Japanese, were all so much fun, it felt like Disneyland!
However, it seemed like there were more people this time than last. The boat was crowded, and when swimming, there were so many people that it was hard to hear and see the dolphins. More than anything, I felt that the communication with the staff and the sense of unity among participants had decreased. This activity is different from others; I believe that the satisfaction comes more from the staff's interactions and the atmosphere rather than just seeing or playing with the dolphins, so I think having a bit more space would enhance the sense of unity.
It was a bit chilly in December, but it was fine without renting a wetsuit. The water wasn't cold. I felt like more than 10% of the participants got seasick. It seems like there weren't any sick people five years ago...? Maybe it was because of the winter and the high waves? Even if you usually don't get seasick, it might be a good idea to have some motion sickness medication.
5年前の初ハワイでも参加して、1番の思い出になったので今回も迷わず参加しました!今回もイルカもカメも見れました!スタッフさん、特に日本語担当ショウタさんはじめ皆さんとっても楽しくてディズニーランドみたいでした!
ただ、前回より人が多かった気がします。船ギュウギュウだし、泳ぐ時も人が多すぎて声が聞こえづらくてイルカも見づらかったです。何よりスタッフさんとのコミュニケーションや参加者の一体感が少なくなっていたと思います。このアクティビティは他と違って、イルカを見るとか遊ぶとかの目的よりもスタッフの皆さんの対応や雰囲気が満足につながっていると思うので、もう少しゆとりがあった方が一体感も出て良いと思いました。
12月で少し寒い時期でしたが、ウエットスーツレンタル無しでも大丈夫でした。水は冷たくないです。1割以上の方が酔っていた気がします。5年前は酔った人いなかったような…?冬で波が高いとかですかね?普段酔わなくても酔い止めがあった方がいいかもしれません
●Points of Concern
- The bus arrived a little late compared to the scheduled time.
- The information beforehand indicated that staff would be wearing blue shirts, but the staff were wearing green shirts.
- The park was smaller than I had imagined.
●Positive Aspects
- Perhaps due to the time of year, there were few people, and I was able to enjoy most attractions without waiting in line.
- The attraction called Shaka was very interesting.
●気になった点
・バスが集合時間より少し遅れて到着しました。
・事前情報では青色のシャツを着た人がスタッフだということでしたが、緑色のシャツを着た人がスタッフでした。
・想像していたよりもパークが狭かったです。
●良かった点
・時期の関係からなのか、人は少なくほとんどのアトラクションは並ぶことなく乗ることができました。
・シャカというアトラクションがとても面白かったです。
Three years ago, I participated with my daughter and had a great time, so this time I joined with friends. The staff were very considerate, taking photos for us and accommodating the two who didn't participate in snorkeling by letting them stay on the cruiser. The malasadas and BBQ were also very delicious, and we even had seconds. We were blessed with wonderful weather and had the best time.
3年前に娘と参加してとても楽しかったので、今回は友人と参加しました。
スタッフの方が写真を撮ってくれたり、シュノーケルに参加しなかった二人をクルーザーに乗せてくれたりとても気使って頂き楽しかったです。
マラサダとBBQもとても美味しくお代わりもしました。
とても天気にも恵まれて最高の時間を過ごすことができました。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for joining us this time. And to our returning guests, welcome back! What wonderful photos! It must have been so beautiful that day, as conveyed through the pictures. We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。そしてリピーター様、お帰りなさい!素晴らしい写真ですね!当日はさぞ美しかったんだろうなー。っと写真から伝わって来ました。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I think this tour depends on the weather. If the weather is bad, it gets cold. The staff were all kind and funny!
Next time I participate, I want to see sea turtles.
Kailua was very enjoyable, and the timing was just right.
The pancakes at Boots & Kimo's were absolutely delicious!
このツアーは天気次第だと思います
天気悪いと寒いです。
スタッフは皆さん親切で面白かったです!
次に参加したときはウミガメに会いたいです
カイルアはとても楽しかったし
時間も丁度よかったです
ブーツ&キモズのパンケーキ最高に美味しかったです!
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. We are very sorry that it rained, but we are glad to hear that you were pleased with our staff's service. It's also great to know that you enjoyed the Kailua plan. As you pointed out, we will continue to make further efforts to ensure that the tour is not solely dependent on the weather, and that you are satisfied throughout the entire experience with snorkeling, activities, and meals. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit.
アロハ!この度はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーへのご参加誠にありがとうございました。雨が降ってしまい大変残念でしたが、スタッフの対応をお褒めいただき嬉しく思います。またカイルアプランもお楽しみいただけたようで良かったです。ご指摘いただきました通り天候次第のツアーとならないよう、シュノーケリングやアクティビティ、そしてお食事などでツアー全体を通してにご満足いただけますようさらなる努力を重ねてまいります。またの機会にお越しいただけますことをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I went at the same time last year, and it was disappointing that the tour was canceled due to a scheduling conflict with an event, so I'm glad I could participate this year.
I encountered many dolphins, and it was a lot of fun.
The crew was bright and wonderful, and I plan to join again.
去年も同じ時期に行き、申し込みした日が何かのイベントと重なるため、このツアーが中止になってしまって残念だったので、今年は参加出来て良かった。
たくさんイルカと遭遇出来て、とても楽しかった。
明るく素敵なクルー達だったし、また参加しようと思います。
It was a cloudy day. The waves were high and it was more thrilling than a roller coaster! Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any whales, but we did meet a family of dolphins and beautiful sea turtles. I will participate again.
当日は曇り空でした。波が高くてジェットコースターよりスリル満点‼︎残念ながらクジラには出会えませんでしたが、イルカファミリーと美しい海ガメに会えました。又参加します。
My boyfriend and I went to Chiefs Luau and it was such a fun night. We are so happy we chose the Royal Package because we were in the very first row, got 3 complimentary drinks, and were first in line for the buffet. The food was really good, my favorite was the kalua pork and poi. The "chief" was hilarious and very talented. This show had performances/dances of cultures from all over Polynesia so it was really cool to see all of their differences. It was very engaging and family-oriented, the fire-knife performance was my favorite. One thing to note is to bring bug-spray! There were mosquitoes since the luau is located at a waterpark. I would highly recommend Chief's luau to anyone!
This Pearl Harbor tour is the perfect experience for people who want to step back in time and learn about what happened on the day Pearl Harbor was attacked. First, we went to the USS Arizona memorial. We watched a 10 minute introduction video that gave a brief description of the Pearl Harbor Attacks and World War 2 then we took a short boat-ride to the memorial. Then we toured the USS Bowfin submarine with an audio guide and the USS Battleship Missouri with a tour guide. These tours really put things into perspective. I chose a deli sandwich for lunch and it was good. The bus driver Kaleo was great; he was very personable, treated us like family, and made everyone laugh. He made the drive to and from Pearl Harbor very entertaining. Overall, this Complete Pearl Harbor was a very eye-opening and touching experience.
I was glad to see a large giant trevally and colorful fish gathering around the artificial reef. I also got to see a honu (sea turtle) at the end!
大きなギンガメアジをはじめ、カラフルな魚が人工漁礁で群れている姿を見ることが出来て良かったです。最後にホヌも見れました!
Aloha! Thank you for sharing your review. We are thrilled to hear that you explored over 100 feet underwater with us! We appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you back soon. Mahalo!
アロハ!レビューを共有していただきありがとうございます。あなたが私たちと一緒に海の下で100フィート以上を探索したのを聞いて喜んでいます!あなたの親切な言葉に感謝し、すぐに再びあなたを歓迎することを楽しみにしています。マハロ!
Billy, our guide, was fluent in Japanese, had a great sense of humor with dad jokes, and was a fun and cheerful person. He taught us about various plants on the way to Manoa Falls. The lunch was also delicious.
ガイドのビリーさんは、日本語が堪能で、オヤジギャグも出るし、楽しくて愉快な方でした。
マノアの滝までに、いろいろな植物を教えてもらいました。ランチも美味しかったです。
I often encounter both unpleasant and good things, as well as strange occurrences in my daily life, and I was able to showcase that ability. I got to see everything, including the honu, whale spouts, and rainbows, which I hear can sometimes be elusive. The crew was very friendly, and I even got to take the helm.
普段から身の周りに嫌なことからいい事、奇怪な事までエンカウント(遭遇)してしまう私ですが、その能力を発揮してしまいました
ホヌや、ホエールの潮、虹、出会えないこともあるらしいのが、全部見れました
クルーも気さくな方ばっかりで舵もきらせてもらえました
About three days ago, the first tour was fully booked, so I signed up for this tour. They picked us up by bus, and from there we moved to the sandbar by boat. I didn’t feel seasick at all, and it was really pleasant arriving at the sandbar. Unfortunately, the water level was up to my waist, but it was very beautiful. We strolled around, took photos, and relaxed at a leisurely pace. There was plenty of time.
After that, we had a hamburger lunch! It was delicious, with freshly grilled patties. You could add tomatoes, onions, lettuce, and more as you liked. Then we went sea turtle watching. I think we saw about ten turtles. They swam gracefully and occasionally popped their heads up for air. After that, snorkeling at a stunning spot! We visited several snorkeling points, and there were many fish. It was the first time I saw a sea turtle. A few groups spotted them, and since I wasn’t wearing a flotation jacket, I dove down a bit and saw them up close. It was amazing to swim alongside the turtles. (Of course, I think I was lucky…)
Snorkeling was also very enjoyable. The plan, which included the sandbar, lunch, sea turtles, and snorkeling, was very satisfying. Our guide, Yuki, was also a lot of fun and shared some movie filming stories, which made it enjoyable. I will definitely join this tour again next time. I highly recommend it!
*Put your belongings in a vinyl bag. Wear marine (water) shoes and bring extra towels from the hotel. Keep your phone around your neck. If possible, sitting on the outer side of the front deck allows for better views of the turtles. Make sure to apply sunscreen well. Drinks are included, so you don’t need too many, but having one for the trip or when you want to drink right away is necessary. Don’t forget to prepare a tip; around $20 to $25 per person is ideal. After the tour, we returned to the hotel by 4 PM, and then we had plenty of time to enjoy shopping.
3日くらい前一番初めのツアーが空いていなかったので、
このツアーに申し込み。バスで迎えに来てくれて、そこから船で移動
まったく、船酔いすることもなく、すごく、気持ちよくサンドバー到着。
あいにく腰下まで水位がありましたが、すごくきれい。
ぶらぶら歩いたり写真を撮ったりまったり、ゆっくり。十分な時間でした。
その後、ハンバーガーランチ!こちらも美味しい。ハンバーグも焼き立て。
トマト、オニオン、レタスなどもお好きに挟んで。という感じ。
その後、ウミガメウオッチング。
10匹は見えたと思います。優雅に泳いでたまに顔を水面に出してくれました。
その後シュノーケリングも最高にきれいなポイント!
いくつかシュノーケルポイントは行きましたが、魚も多く
ウミガメが見えたのは初めて。
数組の方が発見して、私は浮きのジャケットを着ていなかったので、少し潜ったら大きく見えました。さらに、カメと一緒に泳ぐことも出来て最高でした。
(もちろん、ラッキーだったと思いますが…)
シュノーケリングも十分楽しめます。サンドバー・ランチ・ウミガメ・シュノーケルと大満足のプランでした。案内してくださったYUKIさんもとても、
楽しい方で映画の撮影の紹介などもあり、楽しめました。
次に行くときもこのツアーに絶対参加します。お勧めです
※荷物はビニール素材のバックに入れて。靴はマリン(ウォーター)シューズ・タオルはホテルレンタル多めに。携帯は首にかけて。可能なら、前のデッキの外側に座れるとそのまま、カメがうまく見えます。日焼け止めはしっかり塗って。ドリンクはついているので、そんなにいらないが1本くらいは移動やすぐ飲みたいときに必要。チップを準備するのを忘れないで。一人、20ドルから25ドルくらいが理想です。
終了後も16時にホテルに戻りその後、十分にお買い物楽しめます。
Before leaving Japan, the weather forecast for the scheduled day predicted a 60% chance of rain. I called the organizing company two days prior, and they assured me that the event had never been canceled and that they had raincoats and ponchos prepared, so it would be fine. On the day itself, it did rain a little, but it wasn't significant, and I didn't mind much; my windbreaker was sufficient. By the second half of the day, it even cleared up.
The course was changed to the Lyon Arboretum instead of the Manoa Falls area, which was under construction. It was fun not only to learn about the plants but also to have unexpected experiences like picking and cracking open kukui nuts to eat.
日本を発つ前から予定日の天気予報は雨60%。2日前には主催会社に電話もしましたが、今まで中止になったことはなく、合羽やポンチョを用意しているから大丈夫との返事。当日は少し降りましたが大した雨ではなく、あまり気にもならず、着ていったウインドブレーカーで十分。後半は晴れてもきました。
コースはマノアの滝方面が工事で行けない代わりのライオン植物園でしたが、植物の説明だけでなく、ククイの実を拾って割って食べるなど、思いがけない体験もして楽しかったです。
It was a clear day, and both the sea and the mountains were beautiful. The shallowest area had water up to my knees, but it was surprisingly clear, like a different world.
I was worried about snorkeling since I couldn't do the breaststroke, but I was able to move just by using my hands, and I was thrilled to see sea turtles swimming up close.
The blueberry or chocolate muffins we received right after boarding, as well as the lunch, were delicious.
If I had to mention something, the driver was late compared to the meeting time, and he was distributing the schedule by wetting each piece of paper. Also, the changing area on the way to Kailua was in a public restroom with limited stalls, and since locals were using it too, it made us a bit rushed. However, at Būkimō, it was not crowded, and I was able to eat pancakes right away.
I also think it would be helpful if the tour included tips. I definitely want to join again during low tide next time.
当日は快晴で海だけでなく山もとても綺麗でした。一番浅い場所で膝ぐらいの水位でしたが、驚くほど透明で別世界の景色です。
シュノーケリングは、平泳ぎの足が出来ず心配でしたが、手をかくだけで進み、海亀の泳ぐ姿を間近でみれてテンションが上がりました。
乗船してすぐ頂くブルーベリーorチョコのマフィンもランチも美味しかったです。
強いて言うなら、行きのドライバーさんが集合時間より遅れて来たこと、車内で配るスケジュールを1枚ずつ唾を付けて配っていたこと、カイルアへ行く途中の着替えがどこかのトイレで個数も少なく、地元の方も使うので譲っていたら時間が…となり焦ったぐらいです。ブーキモは空いててすぐパンケーキを食べれました。
あと、ツアーがチップ込みだと助かるな〜と思います。次回は干潮の時にぜひ参加します。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the sunny sandbar and Kailua. We also appreciate your feedback on areas for improvement, which we will share with our staff to enhance our services. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。晴天のサンドバー、そしてカイルアを満喫いただいたようでとても嬉しく思います。また改善点のご指摘もいただきありがとうございます。さらなるサービス向上のためにスタッフと共有させていただきます。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
This was my first time in Hawaii, so I made a reservation based on information I found online. The communication regarding transportation was polite, and I received updates about the meeting location and time changes from the hotel. Women must wear rash guards, which also protect against the wind when boarding. For men, it's all about determination.
During our visit, we were comfortably picked up by a large tour bus. We stopped to use the restroom at the boat departure location. Due to the large number of participants, we split into two boats: one with mostly Japanese people and the other more international. Personally, I preferred the international boat, but my family wanted to be on the one with mostly Japanese passengers. The energetic and thorough explanations from the staff really boosted our spirits.
At the sandbar, we borrowed goggles and snorkels to enter the water. It's essential to have a waterproof case for your smartphone, even if it's a cheap one from a dollar store. The water level was about waist to thigh deep, allowing us to walk around, enjoy the scenery, and play volleyball. It might be fun to bring a ball that doesn't get blown away easily.
For turtle watching, we moved from the sandbar and observed from the boat. We saw many turtles, which was exciting, but it was a bit difficult to take photos due to the distance.
Lunch consisted of hamburgers on the boat. If you line up early, you can enjoy your meal at a leisurely pace. Since the portions are light, those with big appetites might want to bring something extra.
The captain's guitar performance was also a nice touch. For snorkeling around the coral, in addition to the snorkel, we borrowed life jackets and fins. If the staff can share some bread, you can feed the fish, which is sure to be a thrilling experience. You can swim around the coral and enjoy the beautiful scenery with your friends.
The weather was decent. Some members got stung by jellyfish, including my daughter, but we received medication and it was no problem. Please note that you cannot flush toilet paper on the boat. It's important to be considerate and keep it clean for everyone, but it might be tough for those who are very particular about cleanliness.
On the return bus, plastic covers were set on the seats. Even if you can't change clothes, there's no need to worry. (Remember to bring some cash to leave a tip when disembarking.)
Instead of worrying about "the weather not being perfect," "the jellyfish," or "the restroom situation," it's better to focus on enjoying what you can. If you can have a good time, the staff's spirits will lift too, making the experience even more enjoyable.
初ハワイなので、ネット情報を参考にして申し込みました。
送迎の連絡は丁寧で、迎えの場所及び時間の変更連絡はホテルにいただけました。女性はラッシュガードが必須。乗船時の風からも守ってくれます。男は気合です。
私たちの時は大きな観光バスでのお迎えにて快適に移動。ボート出航場所でトイレを済ませます。ボート乗船は参加人数が多く2隻に分乗。日本人ばかりのボートとインターナショナルなボートに分かれました。個人的にはインターナショナルが良かったのですが、家族の希望で日本人ばかりの船に。元気で丁寧な説明をいただき気分も盛り上がりました。
サンドバーでは、水中眼鏡とシュノーケルを借りて入水します。スマホは必ず100均のでいいので防水ケースに。腰~太ももくらいまで水位がありましたが、歩いたり、景色を楽しんだり、バレーを楽しんだり。風に飛ばされにくいボールなんかを持っていくと面白いかも。
ウミガメウォッチは、サンドバーから移動してボート上からウォッチします。たくさんのウミガメを見て盛り上がりますが、やや距離があるので写真におさめるのは困難です。
ランチは、船上でハンバーガーでした。早めに並ぶとゆっくり食べられます。軽めなので、大食漢の方は何か持って行った方がいいかもしれません。
船長(?)のギターの弾き語りもいい感じです。
サンゴの周りのシュノーケリングは、シュノーケルの他に、ライフジャケットとフィンを借りて入水します。もし、スタッフの方からパンを分けてもらえれば、魚への餌やりができます。魚の勢いに驚くこと必至。シュノーケリングでサンゴの周りを一周できます。きれいなサンゴを仲間と一緒に楽しめます。
お天気はまずまず。クラゲに刺されるメンバーもいて、娘もその被害に合いましたが薬をいただき問題なし。船上のトイレは紙を流すことができません。お互いのためにきれいに使う意識も大事ですが、潔癖症の方は厳しいかも。
帰りのバスの席にはビニールがセットされています。着替えることができなくても心配ありません。(下船時に気持ちをチップとして残すので、お金を忘れないように)
「天気がピーカンじゃない」とか「クラゲが~」とか「トイレが~」とか考えるよりも、楽しめることを楽しんだ者勝ちです。楽しそうに過ごせたら、スタッフの気持ちも上がって、もっと楽しく過ごせるかも。
We have been too the Island 6 times and decided to do this excursion. We had an awesome time. Mike was great and all staff very personable. Saw Mante Rays, turtles and lots of colorful fish. Our only complaint was that they should use better beef for the burgers. Over all we highly recommend this tour you will not be disappointed.
The sandbar and snorkeling were both amazing. I think it can be enjoyed in any scenario, whether you're with a partner, colleagues, or family. I was moved to see sea turtles up close!
サンドバー、シュノーケリング共に最高でした。カップル、同僚、家族、どのパターンでも楽しめると思います。海カメを間近で見れて感動しました!
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We aim to provide a tour that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and situations, so we are delighted to hear your kind words. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。どの年代、シチュエーションでも楽しんでいただけるツアーを目指しておりますので、お言葉嬉しく思います。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I had a great time.
Billy and the driver explained many flowers and trees, and I was able to see Hawaiian culture.
It was very interesting.
The lunch was also delicious.
With Billy and the team from Nature & You, I would love to enjoy a tour around Hawaii next time.
とっても楽しかったです。
ビリーさんとドライバーさんの2人で
たくさんの花や木を説明してくれて、ハワイの文化も見れました。
とっても面白かったです。
お弁当も美味しかったです。
ネイチャー&ユーのビリーさん達のコンビで、次回はハワイ一周などを楽しみたいです。
The last time I have been to Pearl Harbor was when I was in 6th grade. During that time I had only visited the USS Missouri and the Arizona Memorial. This time around I got to visit the two plus the Pacific Aviation Museum and the USS Bowfin. It was an amazing experience to get to learn about the history of what had happened at Pearl Harbor and to get to see what life was like for sailors living on a boat. I definitely do not think I could survive life as a sailor and I have a whole new respect for the sailors who are out at sea for a long duration of time to protect our country. I do suggest that if you go on this tour on a sunny day, I would wear light clothes and bring sunglasses because it can get hot real fast and it is very bright. Inside the bus is very cold though so I would bring a jacket as well.
You read the description of the tour first and now you want to make sure it's worth it.... Sandbar, volleyball, basic but tasty lunch (charcoal grill), turtle and manta spotting, and then snorkeling a coral reef. Is this something you want to do, surrounded by natural beauty?
Stop reading reviews and book the trip.
We did this tour on a rainy, windy day in 2018 and loved it! We came back and did it again in December 2019 and had a warm, sunny day and lucked out with really good visibility. The coral reef is just that; when you're underwater the live corals extend much beyond what you can see. It's not just a single live colony every once in a while like Hanauma. Where one huge colony/color/texture ends, others begin. That's what I wanted to see and this tour lets you get plenty of time in the water. The crew is always enthusiastic about the experience, has lots of fun themselves, and is highly attentive to passengers. We'll absolutely be back for a 3rd time.
Mahalo Captain Bob's crew!
On the day of the tour, the weather and temperature were unusually pleasant for the rainy season, surprising even the guide, and it wasn't cold at all when we entered the sea. The staff were friendly and really helped to create a lively atmosphere. The water was shallow, reaching just below my waist, but I was able to see a variety of colorful tropical fish and sea turtles while snorkeling. Since I can swim, I would have liked to take off my life jacket and wear fins to dive a bit (though it might not have been safe). Overall, it was an amazing experience.
ツアー当日は、ガイドさんも驚くほどの雨期としては異例の天気と温度で、海に入っても全く寒くありませんでした。スタッフの方たちも気さくで大いに盛り上げてくれました。水深は浅いところで股下位でしたが、シュノーケリングでは色とりどりの熱帯魚やウミガメを見ることが出来ました。私は泳げるので出来たらライフジャケットを脱いでフィンをつけて潜ってみたかったです。
(安全面を考えると無理でしょうが)
とにかく最高の体験でした。
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating this time. We were fortunate to have good weather! For your safety, we kindly ask that you always wear a life jacket. We apologize for any inconvenience. All of our staff sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。天候に恵まれて良かったです!ライフジャケットはお客様の安全上、必ず着用していただくようにお願いしております。申し訳ありません。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
It was quite difficult to find a place that accepted last-minute reservations, but I was satisfied because the bus arrived at the meeting point on time without any confusion on the day.
直前に予約を取れるところが、なかなか無かったのですが 当日に混乱する事もなく時間通りに集合場所にバスも来たので満足でした。
The weather wasn't very good, and the water was a bit high and cold, but I had a great time! The snorkeling was beautiful, and I was satisfied to see fish and even a sea turtle! The hamburger was also very delicious. The staff were all wonderful, and I would like to participate again on a sunny day when I go back to Hawaii.
天気があまり良くなかった日で、水が高めで寒かったですが、、充分楽しめました!!
シュノーケリングも綺麗に魚が見え、ウミガメも見れたので満足です!
ハンバーガーもとっても美味しかったです☆
スタッフの方もみんな良い方でまたハワイに行く際は天気のいい日に参加したいと思います♡
The dolphin teacher swam slowly, and we were able to swim together for a long time! I couldn't believe how long the turtle professor stayed in the same spot; it was truly mystical. I enjoyed the activities, and I even saw a rainbow, making it a very satisfying tour.
イルカ先生がゆっくり泳いでくれて、たくさんの時間一緒に泳ぐことができました!
カメ教授もあんなに長い時間同じところにいてくれるなんて信じられないくらいに見ることができて、神秘的でした。
アクティビティも楽しめたし、虹も見れて大満足なツアーでした。
ALOHA!
Thank you for participating in Dolphin University.
We are very pleased to have shared this mystical experience with you.
If there is another opportunity, please do join us again.
All of our staff are sincerely looking forward to your next visit.
MAHALO!

ALOHA!
この度はイルカ大学へのご参加ありがとうございました。
神秘的な体験をご一緒できましたこと、大変嬉しく思います。
また機会がございましたら、是非ご参加くださいませ。
スタッフ一同心よりお待ちしております。
MAHALO!

I was able to see a lot of dolphins, just as the tour title promised! It takes about an hour by bus from the city to the port, but it can be quite bumpy, so if you are prone to motion sickness, it's a good idea to prepare some medication. Also, they recommend using sunscreen that does not contain ingredients harmful to coral. Everyone on the tour was cheerful, and we had a great time on the boat.
ツアーのタイトル通りたくさんのイルカに会えました!
市内から港まではバスで約一時間ですが結構ゆれるので車酔いする方は酔い止めを準備したほうがよいです。
また日焼けどめは珊瑚を傷つける成分がないものをとのことです。
ツアーみなさんが明るく、船上でも楽しく過ごせました。
BBQ lunch included.
The lunch service was inefficient, and we were able to get the last portion after about 15 minutes before moving on. I hurriedly ate. It's definitely something you should experience at least once, but the weather is really important.
BBQランチ付き
ランチの配膳が 能率が悪く 最後がもらえて 15分間くらいで 移動が再開
慌てて 食べた 一度は 体験すべきですね ただ 天候重要ですね
Since dinner was light, I was able to focus on the sunset, which was quite nice! The tour guide was cheerful, and the service was excellent. It was a fulfilling two-hour tour! I would love to participate again next time!
夕食が軽食なため夕日に集中でき、
かなり良かったです!!
ツアーの方も陽気でサービスも
ばっちりでした。
充実した2時間ツアーでした!!
また次回も参加したいツアーです!
