Oahu
Went with another couple..I wasn't sure what to expect since I've never been on any type of tour via water and there were only a few reviews.
But we're so glad we did. The crew was fantastic! Josh cracked jokes and made us feel welcome. Brad and Karin (spelling?) were great to talk to...they refilled our drinks and also took pictures.
It was laid back, great atmosphere, and beautiful view. Can't wait to do it again!
I registered after arriving in Hawaii, but the tour company didn't receive the information, and the bus driver refused to let me on. After explaining the situation, I was finally allowed to board. Upon arrival, a staff member urged me for my admission ticket, and when I said I was about to leave, another staff member apologized and provided great service, so I reluctantly entered. There were relatively few visitors, and I was able to go on many attractions! The Shaka and Tornado rides were the best! The staff at the attractions were also smiling and fantastic!
ハワイ到着後にエントリーしましたが、ツアー催行会社に伝わってなくバスのドライバーが乗車拒否されました。事情を説明してやっと乗車、到着後に係員より入場券を催促、もう帰ると言うと別の係員がすみませんと好対応してくれたので渋々入場。入場者が比較的少なく沢山のアトラクションへ行けました❗シャカとトルネードは最高でした❗アトラクションの係員も笑顔で最高でした❗
I used it for lunch. Thank you for the very delicious meal. The main dish was meat, which was very tender and flavorful. The dessert was the best I've had recently. I would like to visit again.
ランチにて利用しました。大変美味しい食事をありがとうございました。メインはお肉でとても柔らかく味もしっかりしていました。レザートは最近では一番です。もう一度訪れたいです。
This is our 4th time to visit Hawaii and we always start by spending several days in Oahu before moving on to another island. The Veltra Deluxe Arizona Memorial Tour and Historical City Tour is a must no matter how many times you visit because we always need to remember the extreme sacrifices made for us by our brave men and women of the military. We've been all over the world and Paradise Cruise is one of the very best tour companies ever! HIGHLY recommend this tour. Our guide was Marlon and he was super!
Unfortunately, I ended up waist-deep in the sea, but I had a great time taking photos, playing volleyball, and snorkeling. I was also able to see turtles from the boat. The crew members were all fun, and the hamburgers grilled on the water were delicious! I would love to participate again!
残念ながら腰当たりまで海に浸かってしまったが
写真を撮ったり、バレーをしたり、シュノーケルをしたり
楽しい時間を過ごせました。
船上の上から亀も見れました。
クルーの方が楽しい方ばかりで、また、海の上で焼いたハンバーガーもおいしかった!
また参加したいです!
Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.

Dinner Cruise was awesome. Bus driver on the way was a ass and was nearly punched for being rude to my wife. Told her to be quiet and enjoy the ride. This after he told everyone one the bus we could joke with him because he used to be a shuttle driver.
Everyone on the bus had to drive by the exact same stops twice because he said we didn't know what he was doing.
Whoever scheduled the route didn't know what they were doing it took us nearly 50 minutes to drive around one block If the route would have gone the other way it might have lasted 10 enough said
Warm Aloha Don,
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the Sunset Dinner on board the Majestic but regret to hear that the bus driver was unprofessional. We did speak with bus company and they sincerely apologize but the bus driver did not mean to offend you in any way.
We hope that your family can return to Hawaii and experience the warmth of Aloha!

This was an awesome thing to do with the kids....the underwater shipwrecks etc. were amazing to see.
This is a definitely a cruise for the older crowd. If you are wanting something upbeat and fun this is not for you. The atmosphere is nice and the fireworks were beautiful but it wasn't what we were expecting or hoping for.
The weather wasn't very good, the water was cold, and due to the tides, the sandy beach that you see in pictures was completely invisible. However, I was able to have an experience that I normally wouldn't get to have. It was a strange feeling to be standing in the middle of the ocean.
On the way to the sandbar, I was thrilled to see sea turtles and manta rays.
Also, the breakfast sandwich was simple but very delicious.
Even if you don't go snorkeling, you can enjoy playing in the water near the boat without getting soaked, so you can have fun even if you're not confident in your swimming skills.
あまり天気が良くなく、水も冷たく、干満の関係で写真で見るような砂浜もまったく見えない状態でしたが、普段、できないような体験ができました。海の真ん中に立っている不思議な感覚です。
サンドバーに着くまでには、ウミガメやマンタが見られ、感激でした。
また、朝食のサンドウィッチもシンプルですが、とてもおいしかったです。
シュノーケリングをしなくても、船の近くでずぶぬれにならずに水遊びができるので、泳ぎに自信がなくても楽しめます。
I tend to get seasick, so I was a bit worried, but there was no problem at all. It was mystical to see the turtles swimming and the schools of fish. Also, the view of the coastal hotels when returning from the sea was lovely. I think it's a sight you don't get to see often!
船酔いするタイプなので、ちょっと心配でしたが全く問題ありませんでした。
亀が泳ぐ姿や魚の群れが見れて神秘的でした。
また、沖から戻る際に見えた海岸ホテル群の景色が素敵です。なかなか見れない景色だと思いますよ!
I checked the tide levels when I signed up, so I knew that the sandbar would have water at least up to my knees on certain days, but the snorkeling experience was terrible.
We departed with over 60 people on a large bus, and the number increased even more at the location. With that many people, we were just taken in a line around a designated course and that was it. The snorkeling time was about 5 minutes? It felt more like a swimming lesson for kids. It would have been better not to do it at all.
The guide and crew had a good vibe and took photos and provided services, but the tour program itself was just too awful. I do not recommend it.
申し込む時点で潮位を調べてたので、サンドバーは少なくとも膝上くらいまでは水が出ある日、ということは分かってたけどシュノーケリングがひどかった。
大型バスに60名以上で出発し、現地でさらに人数が増える。その人数で、一列になって決められたコースをぐるっと回らされて終わり。シュノーケリング時間は5分くらい?子どもの水泳訓練か何かですか?という感じ。これならやらない方がマシだった。
ガイドさんやクルーのノリは良いし、写真を撮ったりサービスしてくれるけどツアープログラム自体がひどすぎる。お勧めしません。
This was our first time participating in Dolphin University as a pair. Since we were on the first bus, it was really early in the morning, but the staff member kept everyone energized, so I wasn't sleepy at all! I also learned a lot of interesting facts about dolphins.
When we arrived at the port and boarded the boat, we spotted dolphins in about five minutes!!! Around 20 dolphins were right in front of us! After that, we returned to the boat to relax, and then we saw another group of dolphins! This time, we even got to see a baby dolphin swimming along, and we were thrilled to witness dolphin jumps live! Later, we encountered three sea turtles, and I was constantly amazed throughout the trip!
We also had a packed schedule with canoeing, paddle surfing, a jumping contest from the boat, and a hula dance with all the participants! The pineapple and cheeseburger we had on the boat were really delicious. I was quite anxious about whether we would actually see dolphins before going, but it turned out to be an incredibly satisfying tour. Oh, for those who are worried about seasickness, I definitely recommend taking motion sickness medication beforehand (there were participants who got sick...). Also, a professional photographer took a lot of pictures during the tour, and I think it's definitely worth buying those photos! They were taken beautifully!
Next time I go to Hawaii, I absolutely want to participate again!
今回初めてイルカ大学に2人で参加しました。第1便だったので朝はすごく早かったのですがバスの中ではお姉さんがハイテンションでみんなを盛り上げてくれたので全く眠くなかったです! イルカの豆知識もたくさん知ることができました。
いざ港に着き、船に乗り込むと5分くらいでイルカさんたちを発見!!!20頭くらいのイルカが私たちの目の前に!その後いったん船に戻りゆっくりしているとまた次のイルカの群れが!今度は赤ちゃんイルカも一緒に泳いでいるのも見れ、さらに生でドルフィンジャンプも見れて感動!そのあとは3匹の海亀さんにも出会え終始感動しっぱなしでした!
あとはカヌーやらパドルサーフィン、船からのジャンプ大会、参加者全員でのフラダンスと盛りだくさんの内容です!船の中で食べたパイナップルやチーズバーガーは本当においしかったです。行く前は本当にイルカに会えるか不安でしたが本当に大大大満足のツアーでした。あ、船酔いが心配な人は事前に必ず酔い止めを飲むのをオススメします。(参加者の中にもリバースしている人がいたので…)あとプロのカメラマンさんがツアー中にたくさん写真を撮ってくれるのですがその写真は絶対に買ったほうがいいと思います!ものすごく綺麗に撮ってくれます!
次ハワイに行く際はまた絶対に参加したいと思います!
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University! We sincerely look forward to your next participation. MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご参加頂きありがとうございました! またのご参加を心よりお待ちしております♪ MAHALO!!
This was my third experience, so I didn't have the strong impression I had the first time, but my friends who experienced it for the first time seemed to find it fresh and were very happy. They shared that it was a top-class event during our seven-night stay in Hawaii. As the one who invited them on this trip, I felt very pleased about that. Since it was muddy from the rain, the horses were slipping, which seemed to add to the thrill.
私自身は3度目の体験ですので、最初の時の強い印象はありませんが、今回初めて体験した友人夫婦には新鮮であったようでとても喜んでくれました。今回の7泊のハワイでのイベントのトップクラスと感想を伝えてくれました。その事が、今回の旅行を誘った私としては嬉しく思います。雨でぬかるんでいたため、馬が足を滑らせていたため、余計スリルに溢れていたようです。
When we went on the cruise for our 25th anniversary, the weather was clear and we felt very welcomed by the friendly crew. We also got offered a free drink at the bar as were the other guests. My wife and I enjoyed the relaxing breeze on the tour accompanied with the warm sun. On the boat, we saw gorgeous views of Diamond Head and Waikiki and also took a lot of pictures. While on the boat, we didn't feel any bumps and the trip was very smooth. When we go to Hawaii again, we'll definitely go on this cruise. I highly recommend this cruise for anybody travelling with friends, family, or as a couple.
When we went on the Waikiki Glass Bottom tour in Hawaii for our 25th anniversary, we were greeted very warmly and we felt very welcomed. Although it was raining, we still felt comfortable because of the crew and were offered free drinks. During the boat ride, we saw coral, tropical fish, and even sea turtles! We took lots of pictures of the stunning scenery of Waikiki and the Diamond Head. The crew also explained the history of Waikiki and made the tour more interesting so that every moment was enjoyable. Next time we come to Hawaii, we will definitely be going on the tour again. We highly recommend this great vacation tour for anyone travelling with friends, family, or as a couple.
The pickup did not arrive. I was passed around on the phone, and in the end, no one came to pick me up, so I had to cancel. What is the point of having an emergency contact? Ultimately, I was directed back to the first number I called, it felt like a comedy sketch... I was told to contact Japan, emailed VELTRA to explain the situation, and received a refund.
I had been looking forward to this tour for a long time, and since there was only one day that fit my schedule due to the park's closing day, I had no choice but to rent a car and buy tickets on-site to enter. However, because I was passed around on the phone, I left around noon and was able to enter only after 1 PM. Since the park closed at 4 PM, many attractions closed by 3 PM, and I couldn't enjoy myself at all before heading back. I spent the day in the worst mood, and my spirits remained low for the next three days... Moreover, two days later, another incident occurred where the pickup did not come. It was the worst trip.
I fully understand that VELTRA is not to blame. They showed various considerations in our subsequent communications, but I felt it was important to share the facts, so I decided to post this review.
ピックアップが来ませんでした。
電話はたらいまわしにされ、結局迎えは来ず、キャンセルにさせられました。
緊急連絡先の意味は?
最終的に最初に電話した番号を案内されるという、コントのような、、、。
日本に連絡しろと言われ、VELTRAさんにメールをし、経緯を説明し、返金してもらいました。
ずっと楽しみにしていたツアーで、閉園日もあったので、日程がこの日しか合わず、しょうがないのでレンタカーを借り、チケットも現地で購入し入園。
しかし、電話をたらいまわしにされたので、出発が12時近くなり、入園できたのが13時を回っていました。
16時閉演のため、15時には多くのアトラクションが閉まり、まったく楽しめず帰ってきました。
最悪の気分で一日過ごし、残りの3日間も気分が上がらず。。。
しかも、この2日後にまた、ピックアップが来ないという事態が起き。
最悪の旅行でした。
VELTRAさんが悪いわけではないのは重々承知の上です。
その後のやりとりでも色々とご配慮いただきましたが、事実はお伝えしたほうがよいと思い、口コミ投稿させていただきました。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide you with satisfactory service.
Upon confirming with the local operating company regarding this matter, I learned that the pickup bus arrived at the designated location at the specified time and attempted to find you by calling your name, but unfortunately could not meet you, and thus had to depart after five minutes. I am truly sorry that, despite your call to the emergency contact number, we were unable to connect you with the person in charge, resulting in the need for you to rent a car to reach the location.
Additionally, I deeply apologize for the repeated inconveniences caused by the local operating company's mistakes regarding the tour you had booked for a later date. We have sent you a separate email, and I would appreciate it if you could check the details.
To prevent similar inconveniences in the future, we will work together with the local operating company to improve our services.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback despite your busy schedule.

I went to Taormina for the first time this time to confirm my reservation. When I arrived at the restaurant, there was a Japanese staff member who checked the time and confirmed if they could prepare a message plate for me. I was told my 7 PM reservation was at 6:30 PM, and they kindly said it would be fine to have the message plate. However, in reality, it seems there was a miscommunication, and the message plate only came out after I prompted them. It was disappointing, but overall it was delicious, so that was good. Compared to Japan, it's just not the same, right? (laughs)
今回初めてタオルミーナに食べに行きました〜予約の確認をしに行きました。
お店に行ったら日本人の定員さんがいて時間の確認とプレートを作ってくれるかの確認
19時の予約が18時30分と言われ、メッセージプレートも心良く大丈夫と言ってもらいました〜が…
実際には…きっと伝達ミスで…メッセージプレートもこちらからの催促で出てきました…
残念でしたが〜トータルでは美味しかったので〜良かったです
やはり日本と比べたらダメですね〜(笑)
Thank you very much for using our restaurant meal voucher and advance reservation service. We sincerely apologize for not being able to provide satisfactory service despite your visit being a special occasion.
We have confirmed the details with the local operating company. Regarding your reservation time, you had requested 7:00 PM, but since that time was fully booked, your reservation was confirmed for 6:30 PM. We apologize for the confusion caused by the different time arrangement. Additionally, regarding the message plate, while the restaurant had prepared it, we regret that it was not handled smoothly.
Based on your valuable feedback, we will strive to provide even more satisfactory service in the future.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback during your busy schedule.

The trip was amazing. We went the first week of September so there wasn't much turtles or whales. It wasn't the season yet. It was still extremely fun and enjoyable. I went with my grandma and her or I did not get seasick! I recommend this for anyone who wants to relax at sea with a bit of adventure! Really great for elders and little kids. They have a net you can sit on. They also have a bar you can purchase alcoholic beverages or sodas! You can also buy a sippy cup so you won't spill your drink! Highly recommend and there's a coupon on Groupon! Take everyone!!! I will be coming back with more family members! Definitely coming back in December for the whales!
Last time I went to Hawaii, I participated in a dolphin tour with another company, but I got seasick and had to give up snorkeling. This time, I was really looking forward to swimming with the dolphins. However, due to the effects of the hurricane, we weren't able to see the dolphins on the first day, despite the high probability of encountering them.
However, since my husband couldn't swim and immediately cramped up, the Japanese guide helped him with a float and guided him to where the sea turtles were, so he was able to enjoy himself even without seeing the dolphins. I used a half-price ticket for not seeing the dolphins and tried again the next day.
I was truly moved to be able to swim close to the dolphins I had longed for, to see many fish, and to see many sea turtles up close. More than that, I was touched by the morning call, the crew's hula dance and performances on the boat, and the crew's desire for many people to meet the dolphins.
There are various dolphin tours offered by different companies, but I highly recommend Dolphin and You. I would definitely like to participate again.
前回、ハワイに行った時に別の会社のドルフィンのツアーに参加したのですが,船酔いで,シュノーケリングは断念したため、今回こそはどうしてもドルフィンと泳ぎたいととても楽しみにしていました。しかし、ハリケーンの影響か、一日目は高い確率で会えるはずのドルフィンに会えませんでした。
しかし、泳げない上に泳ぎ始めてすぐに足をつった主人を日本語ガイドさんが、浮輪,で誘導して、ウミガメのところまで案内してくれたので、主人はドルフィンには会えなくても、十分楽しめようです。
私はドルフィンに会えなかった場合の半額チケットで、翌日もトライしました。
念願のドルフィンの近くで泳げたこと、たくさんの魚達、たくさんのウミガメを間近で見れたこと、本当に感激しました。
しかし、それ以上に、朝のモーニングコール、船の上でのクルーの皆さんのフラダンスやパフォーマンス、多くの人にドルフィンに会ってもらいたいというクルーの皆さん想いに触れて、感動しました。
色々な会社さんのドルフィンツアーがありますが、ドルフィンアンドユー様をおすすめします。私も、是非、また参加したいです。
I participated with my elderly mother. Our guide, Miho, was very attentive and taught us many things. Thanks to her insights about not only Hawaiian culture and history but also the flowers and trees in the courtyard, I feel like we enjoyed our trip many times more! It was my mother's first experience with hula dancing, and the teacher was wonderful and friendly, which made my mother very happy.
年老いた母と二人で参加しました。ガイドのミホさんはとても丁寧に色々な事を教えてくださいました。ハワイの文化や歴史以外にも中庭の花や木など教えて頂いたおかげで旅行が何倍も楽しめた気がします!母にとって初めてのフラダンス体験でしたが、先生も素敵で気さくな方で母も喜んでいました。
There was a large group of dolphins, but they were far below my feet, so I almost missed them. I wish I could have gotten a little closer. Since they are wild, I can't complain.
After the dolphins, we went to the turtle point, and that was really great. It was my first time seeing so many turtles, including baby turtles, up close. Stand-up paddleboarding and the trampoline were also a lot of fun. The BBQ hamburgers were delicious because they cooked them right there on the spot. I also appreciated that they were accommodating with various requests like gluten-free and no cheese.
イルカの大群はいましたが、足元のずっと下の方だったので、見落としそうでした。もう少し近くまで寄れたらよかったのですが。野生なので、文句は言えないですよね。
イルカの次にカメのポイントに行き、そこがとってもよかったです。あんなにそばでたくさんのカメ、子亀?を見るのは初めてでした。またスタンダップパドルボートやトランポリンなど、とっても楽しかったです。BBQハンバーガーは、その場で焼いてくれてるのでとてもおいしかったです。グルテンフリーやチーズなしなどいろいろな希望を聞いてくれるのもありがたいですね。
This was my first time using the service! We participated as a couple because we could swim with dolphins while snorkeling. We got on the shuttle from the Sheraton early in the morning, and it felt like the one-hour ride flew by while listening to the fun stories from our tour guide. Once we boarded the boat, we headed to the spot where the dolphins were. Since dolphins move quickly, we jumped into the water as soon as we arrived. I was amazed to see several dolphins swimming just below me!
After that, we moved to another dolphin spot, but we weren't able to see any dolphins the second time. In total, we only went to the dolphin spot twice. Next, we moved to a spot with sea turtles. They were small, but we were able to see them while snorkeling. We also did kayaking and paddle surfing. When we participated, we had enough time for kayaking, but I heard that sometimes if the schedule is tight, those activities might not be available.
今回初めて利用しました!
シュノーケリングでイルカと泳ぐことができるということで、夫婦2人で参加させていただきました。朝早くにシェラトンからの送迎車に乗り込み楽しいツアーのお兄さんの話を聞きながら向かったので片道1時間位があっという間でした。そして船に乗り込みイルカのいるスポットまで向かいました。イルカはすぐに移動してしまう為、着いたらすぐに海に入ります。
そして自分が泳いでいるすぐ下にイルカが何匹か泳いでいました。こんな間近でイルカを見ることができて感動しました!
その後も、またイルカスポットまで移動しましたが2回目は見れませんでした。
結局、イルカスポットへは2回しか行きませんでした。
次に海亀のいるスポットまで移動しました。小さかったですが、泳いでいる海亀をシュノーケリングしながら見ることが出来ました。
そして、カヤックやパドルサーフィンなどもしました。私達が参加した時は時間があったのでカヤックなど出来ましたが、その時によって時間がおしていたら出来ない時もあるそうです。
Aloha, amiiiigo!
Thank you for participating in Dolphin University.
And congratulations on your graduation from the prestigious Dolphin University!
I'm glad you were able to see both dolphins and sea turtles, and that the weather was stable enough for marine activities!
Please join us again when you come back to Hawaii! All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.
Mahalo, Dolphin Office.
ALOHA☆ amiiiigo様
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。
そして、名門イルカ大学ご卒業おめでとうございます!!
イルカとウミガメどちらも見られて、お天気も安定していてマリンアクティビティもできたようで良かったです!
またハワイへお越しの際はぜひご参加ください!スタッフ一同心よりお待ちしております。

I had a great time communicating in Japanese both on the bus and at the destination! If I had to mention something, I was a bit disappointed that the meals and jeep tour were in English, but everything else was very good! On the cruise, I was able to see turtles, which made me very satisfied!
バスでも現地でも日本語ですごく楽しく過ごせました!!
強いていうなら、ご飯とジープツアーが英語だった事は少し残念でしたが他はとても良かったです!
クルーズでは、亀も見れて大満足でした!!
Great time, great crew, stunning scenery. They don't overcrowd the boat so there is plenty of room to move around. The crew makes the evening entertaining by socializing and they take pictures on request.
It was a bit on the expensive side, and I was hesitant, but I decided to sign up since it was a special opportunity. The instructor and the camera person really encouraged us, even though we didn't understand English, and I made friends with the Americans who participated with us. I definitely want to work hard and join again! ♪
ちょっと高めだし、悩んでいたんですけどせっかくだからで申し込みをしました。インストラクターのお姉さんやカメラさんも英語のわからない私たちを盛り上げてくれて、一緒に参加したアメリカ人とも仲良くなりました。 またがんばってぜひ参加したいです♪
The dishes that come out are impressive, and the selection of wine to match is exquisite. Whenever I go to Hawaii, I always make it my last dinner.
出てくる料理もさることながら、それにあわせてのワインのセレクトが絶品でした。
ハワイに行くときは必ず最後のディナーにさせてもらってます。
The water was a little rough, but signs were posted every where to be careful. The lifeguard made an announcement & everything was fine.
I participated in the morning session. I chose a date that would allow me to go to the sandbar around low tide, but the water level was about knee-deep. Moreover, it was the day before a hurricane approached, so the weather wasn't great, but the sea turtles seemed accustomed to people and came to play near the anchored boats, swimming close enough that it felt like they might bump into us. I didn't have high expectations for the food since it was just light snacks, but it was delicious. The snorkeling was enjoyable and at a manageable distance. I don't think it's necessary to buy and bring reef shoes. It's better to assume there are no changing rooms. I also think it's considerate that you can download one group photo for free.
午前の部に参加しました。なるべくサンドバーに行く時間が干潮になるような日付を選びましたが、潮位は膝下ぐらいでした。しかもハリケーン接近の前日でだったのでお天気はいまいちでしたが海亀さんは人に慣れているのか停泊中のボート付近に遊びに来てくれて向こうからぶつかってきそうな所で泳いでくれました。食事も軽食とあったので期待はしていませんでしたが美味しかったです。シュノーケルも無理ない距離で楽しく出来ました。リーフシューズは買って持っていくまでもないと思います。更衣室はないと思った方が良いです。集合写真を1枚だけ無料ダウンロード出来るのも良心的だと思います。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea tour. I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed it. I hope you were able to meet the honu and take home lots of happiness!
Please note that there are no changing rooms or lockers during the tour. Participants should come wearing their swimsuits from their rooms and will return to the hotel in their swimsuits as well. Even if you don't plan to participate in snorkeling, you will need to get into the water when visiting the sandbar, so please make sure to wear clothes that can get wet.
We look forward to welcoming you back for another adventure in Paradise of the Sea. Mahalo!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂きありがとうございます。
楽しんで頂けたようで本当に嬉しいです。ホヌ達にも会えてたくさ〜んのHappyをお持ち帰り出来ましたのでは?
ツアーの際更衣室、ロッカーなどはありません。ツアー参加の際はお部屋から水着着用で参加、帰りも水着のままでホテル迄戻って頂く事になります。シュノーケルに参加されない予定でも、サンドバーに行かれる際は海に入って頂かないと行けませんので、必ず濡れても構わない服装でご参加下さいね。
天国の海、再チャレンジお待ちしております。マハロ!
The staff was kind and had great energy, making it a really fun tour. Despite a hurricane approaching, we managed to avoid it and set off in pleasant weather! We dove into the sea at two points to swim with dolphins, and luckily, we saw honu (sea turtles) at both spots. They made sure to check if everyone had seen the dolphins, and the explanations in both English and Japanese were reassuring. The slide after swimming with the dolphins was also fun and I highly recommend it! Due to the wind, we couldn't play on the trampoline, which I was looking forward to, but I'll save that for next time!
Once you get into the sea, you inevitably feel cold from the wind while on the boat, so I recommend bringing a towel or a hoodie to wear!
I didn't receive the eco-bag that was mentioned during the booking, but this trip was a highlight for me, so I'm satisfied! I will definitely participate again next time!
スタッフの方も親切で、ノリも良くてすごく楽しいツアーになりました。ハリケーンが来ている中、なんとか逸れてくれて、心地いい天気の中出発!イルカと泳ぐポイント2箇所で海へダイブ、ラッキーだったのかどちらのポイントでもホヌも見れました。 きちんと参加者全員がイルカを見れたかも聞いてくれるし、英語と日本語で丁寧に説明してくれるのな安心です。イルカと泳いだ後の、スライダーも楽しくてオススメです!風の影響で、楽しみにしていたトランポリンでは遊べませんでしたが、これは次回の楽しみに取っておきます笑◡̈
一度海に入った後は、どうしても船上で風を浴びるので、寒く感じます。タオルやパーカーなど羽織れるものを持っていくことをオススメします!
申し込み時に書いてあったエコバッグは頂けませんでしたが…
今回の旅でのハイライトとなりましたので、満足です!次回も是非参加します♪
