Oahu
It was planned as a surprise for my mother and my it was a succsess!!!! The person, Alfred, who greeted us was really heartwarming and helpful. I am so grateful for having decided to do this and for having met Alfred. Many thanks and hugs and kisses to Alfred
Aloha Gudny! I have just passed your message to Alfred and he wanted me to let you both know that you are very welcome!!! He had a lovely time greeting the both of you! Mahalo for you lovely message and I hope the both of you made several precious memories on our beautiful island!
I had so much fun that I still don't want to go home! I was completely satisfied with every ride. This is definitely one of the places I want to visit again when I come to Hawaii next time! 😊
まだまだ帰りたくないほど楽しすぎましたぁ〜
どれに乗っても、大満足
次にハワイに来てもまた絶対行きたい場所の1つです)^o^(
Aloha Hitomi,
Thank you for your valuable feedback. We look forward to your next visit.
アロハ ひとみ様、
貴重なご意見ありがとうございました。又のお越しをお待ち申し上げます。
I went to Hawaii to celebrate my mother's 77th birthday. About ten years ago, when we came together, my mother also went into the ocean, but I was wondering if she would this time. To my delight, the beautiful sea encouraged her to join in, and she was very happy. She says she wants to go again while she's still healthy. The guide was also kind and had interesting stories to share.
母の喜寿のお祝いに行ったハワイでした。10年位前に一緒に来た時には母も海に入りましたが、今回はどうかなぁと思っていたところ、あまりのきれいな海に母も一緒に海に入って喜んでいました。元気なうちにもう一度行きたいと言っています。案内の女性の方も親切でお話も面白かったです。
We would like to thank the staff of veltra for their outstanding services with helping making our dream vacation a reality, we really enjoyed the whole adventure - it took us awhile to choose which to do but I am so glad we picked this one - the staff at each event were very knowledgeable.
Thanks Again
We would like to thank the staff of veltra for their outstanding services with helping making our dream vacation a reality, we really enjoyed the Dinner Cruise - the staff on the boat were perfect, dinner was delicious, show was very enjoyable!
Thanks Again
It was our first time experiencing the glass bottom boat tour. Although it wasn't what I was expecting from the title of the tour, but it was fun. The boat consisted of boxes with glass bottom you can look down to see underneath the boat. During the shallow parts of the water, you can see fishes and of course it's not a guarantee on what or what not you would see. But, wish we would have seen more!
The captain and his partner were friendly and nice. We went during the first tour at 9am, so we basically had the entire boat to roam around with another family. They offer drinks (water, bud light, soda) and restroom on board, which was great!
We were also lucky with the day that we went. It was sunny but during some parts of the tour, the clouds covered the sun, so the breeze was nice. So all in all, it was a fun experience.
This glass bottom boat trip gives one a new view to look at while experiencing a cruise. Not only is the view amazing but you get to see a side of wild life you don't usually get to look at. We got to see a few different types of fish and a number of turtles.
Our captain and his partner were also hugely helpful. Answering all questions and giving us interesting information on the sea and boat life here in Waikiki. But do understand, you can't control wild life, so some days or seasons might be better to go than others. And while what wild life you see may depend on a number of different things, the view is always enjoyable and relaxing.
The show was funny and entertaining. The pre-games were fun. We even got a special dance since it was our honeymoon.. 2nd day. The drinks could have been better..the bartender was a bit sloppy..just stick to the mai tais
I felt refreshed! The breakfast was a buffet, and I enjoyed it deliciously! After the meal, I went up to the deck, lay down on a chair, and relaxed while feeling the sea breeze—it was the best! I was also able to see whales in the distance! I would like to participate again when I go to Hawaii in the winter!
気分爽快でした!朝食もバイキングでしたが、おいしくいただきました!食後は甲板に上がり、イスに横になり、海風にあたりながらまったり最高でした!クジラも遠目でしたが見ることができました!また冬時期にハワイに行くときは参加したいと思います!
Thank you for boarding. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your experience. Starting December 15, the Whale Watching Cruise will begin! We sincerely look forward to welcoming you aboard when you visit Hawaii.
ご乗船、ありがとうございました。楽しめていただけたご様子で、私どもも大変うれしく思っております。12月15日より、Whale Watching Cruise が、始まります!ハワイにお越しの際には、是非ご乗船頂けます様、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
It was a very valuable experience since it was the first time for the whole family on a submarine. The guide also made jokes in Japanese, so we had a fun time throughout. It was a bit disappointing that there weren't many fish, though.
家族全員が初めての潜水艦だったのでとても貴重な体験ができました、ガイドの方も日本語で冗談を交えて案内してくれたので終始楽しい時間でした、魚があまりいなかったのが少し残念でした。。
Unfortunately, due to the rain, we couldn't fully enjoy the beautiful emerald blue sea, but we had a great time with the sandbar, turtle watching, and snorkeling. The BBQ lunch was very delicious. The guide, as well as the captain and crew, were friendly and very kind. I would like to participate again when the weather is nice. (The weather is always a matter of luck on the day...)
あいにくの雨で、美しいエメラルドブルーの海を満喫という訳にはいきませんでしたが、サンドバーとウミガメウォッチング、スノーケルを楽しみました。
BBQランチ、とても美味しかったです。ガイドさんをはじめ、船長やクルーもフレンドリーでとても優しく親切でした。今度は良い天気の時に参加したいです。(天候ばかりは当日の運ですが…)
I would highly recommend this boat trip. It was fun and the drinks were surprisingly good. Although it rained, we still had a great time. The weather was warm enough to stay outside on the netting and enjoy the full sensation of sailing. The crew were very nice and attentive to everyone. There were no cheesy banter that I have come to associate with Hawaiian tours of any sort. The catamaran was large, so everyone had a lot of room to move around. It was clean and the head (restroom) was well maintained. Even though it stormed that day, the ride was incredibly smooth and no one got sick. The check in booth was at the entry to the harbor and the line went fast and effortlessly. The only caveat I have for others wishing to do this tour is that you have to have a hard copy ticket or be able to bring it up on your phone. Even though we booked online and they had our names, the lady in the booth needed me to pull the confirmation up on my phone . Unfortunately, this caused us to delay the line , which we hate to do.
We chose Dolphin University for our family trip with three generations, ranging from 6 to 61 years old. This was my number one activity for the trip, and everyone was moved by the experience! The staff were really kind and funny, and we had a great time. We saw plenty of dolphins and sea turtles, and we were very satisfied. They also took a lot of photos, so we have wonderful memories. Choosing Dolphin University from various dolphin tours was definitely the right decision. I would love to go again next time!
親子3世代、6歳から61歳までの家族旅行でのアクティビティでイルカ大学さんを選びました。
私が今回の旅行でしたい事のナンバー1だったのですが、皆を連れて行って全員が感動してくれました♪
スタッフの皆さんは本当に優しくて面白くて、凄く楽しませて頂きました☆
イルカも海ガメも沢山見られたし、大満足でした。
写真も沢山撮ってくれていたので、良い思い出が残りました。
色んなイルカツアーからイルカ大学さん選んで大正解でした。
次もまた行かせて頂きたいです(^_^)
ALOHA!! Thank you for enrolling at Dolphin University! We are glad to have created wonderful memories for your family's trip to Hawaii. Please join us again! MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご入学いただきありがとうございました! ご家族のハワイ旅行に良い思い出を残すことが出来、何よりです。 また是非ご参加くださいね! MAHALO!!
I wanted to see the fireworks from the seaside on Friday, so I participated. The ship was fully booked, and the buffet guests and lobster dinner guests were on the same floor. Buffet guests could quickly grab their food and leave, but those having the lobster dinner had to wait for their meals to be served, which took quite a bit of time.
The ship isn't that large, so even without a window seat, there was plenty of opportunity to see the outside scenery, which was nice. I was told that the window seats were fully booked, so I couldn't request one, but I was lucky enough to have a window seat.
When asked if I would go again, I think I would prefer to go to a restaurant at the Hilton to watch the fireworks instead. I think once is enough for me.
海側から金曜日の花火が見たいと思い、参加しました。船内は満席で、ビュッフェの人とロブスターディナーの人が同じフロアでした。
ビュッフェの人は早く取って、食べて出ていけるのですが、ロブスターディナーの人は料理が運ばれてくるのを待つしかなく・・・結構、時間がかかります。
船はそれほど大きくないので、無理して窓側指定しなくても十分、外の景色が見えて、良い感じでした。うちは窓側が満席ですと言われて指定できなかったんですが、運良く窓側の席でした。
次また行くかと言われると、ヒルトンのレストランに行って、花火を見る方がいいかなと思っています。
1回行けば満足かなと思います。
Would recommend this for everyone. It was something to see. and remember.
FANTASTIC!!!It was so nice when arriving and she was there greeting us.
Aloha Judy, Thank you very much for the feedback on your experience. We are happy to hear that we lived up to your standards. Again, thank you very much and have a wonderful day!
As an adult, I hadn't had the chance to go to a pool in Japan, but I played like a kid again!! I was a bit late and didn't know how to get the tickets, but when I showed the staff at the ticket booth my Berkeley, they quickly helped me out, and I was able to get my tickets without any issues. After that, I enjoyed myself to the fullest☆ I don't have the courage to go in Japan, but I definitely want to go again in Hawaii!!
大人になって日本でプールに行く機会がなかったけど子供にかえったように遊びまくっちゃいました!!少し時間遅れてしまってチケットをどのようにもらえたらよいかわからなかったですが、こちらのバークレーを見せたらチケットブースのお姉さんがすぐに対処していただき、無事にチケットゲットでき、そこからは思う存分楽しみました☆
日本で行く勇気はないけどハワイならまた行きたい!!
Aloha Yoyoyo,
I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed your time.
Please do come visit us again during your stay in Hawaii.
アロハ よよよ様、
楽しんでいただけたようで大変うれしく思います。
どうぞ又ハワイでの滞在中にはお越し頂けますようお願いいたします。
Due to the approaching hurricane, the waves were high and the visibility was poor. Haha. I was looking forward to turtle watching, but it seems the turtles evacuated as well, so I couldn't see them... Well, it's a natural phenomenon, so it can't be helped! The hamburger for lunch was delicious!
ハリケーン接近の為、波が高く透明度も悪かった〜。笑 海ガメウォッチングも楽しみにしてたけどカメも避難したらしく見れず… まあ、自然現象なので、仕方ない!ランチのハンバーガーは、美味しかったー!
I used this service for the first time and had a great time!
First, they picked me up at the hotel entrance around 9:30 AM with a large bus. However, the air conditioning on the bus was broken, and it was quite stuffy. After about an hour of travel, we arrived and were able to store our luggage in lockers, which was very convenient! There were many Japanese staff members, which made me feel reassured.
At the venue, most of the guests were Japanese, and even though it was a weekday, it was relatively uncrowded. The attractions were a bit challenging as we had to climb with large floaties, but they were all high-quality, thrilling, and fun! Even for popular attractions, the wait time was only about 15 minutes. The Tornado was especially enjoyable!
Additionally, the all-you-can-drink plan was a great choice since they provided drinks immediately upon showing the wristband.
At the end of the tour, as an apology for the broken air conditioning on the bus, they gave us a towel with the Wet 'n Wild logo! The attentive service was very appreciated. I would love to participate again!
今回初めて利用しましたが、かなり楽しかったです!!
まず、9時半頃にホテルの入り口まで大型のバスで迎えに来てくださいました。その時に乗車したバスのクーラーが壊れていて、とても息苦しかったです。。
1時間ほど乗車し到着するとロッカーに荷物を預けます。出し入れが自由なのがとてもよかったです!日本人のスタッフの方がたくさんいて安心できました♡
現地ではほとんどが日本人客で、平日だったのですが比較的空いていました。アトラクションは大きな浮き輪を持って登るのが大変でしたが、どれもクオリティが高くスリリングでおもしろかったです!!人気のアトラクションでも15分程度の待ち時間で乗れました
特にトルネードが最高に楽しかったです!
また、ドリンク飲み放題のプランはリストバンドを見せるとすぐに出してくれるので利用して正解でした✨
ツアーの最後に、行きのバスのクーラーのお詫びとして、ウェットインワイルドのロゴが入ったバスタオルを下さいました!
丁寧な対応をして下さりとてもよかったです
また参加したいと思います!
Dear Aloha Ai,
I sincerely apologize for the bus air conditioning being broken. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the attractions. We have held a meeting with the bus company to ensure that such incidents do not happen again. Thank you for your valuable feedback. We hope you will visit us again during your stay on Oahu.
Mahalo,
アロハあいう様、
バスのクーラーが壊れてしまぅたこと、まことに申し訳ございませんでした。
アトラクションは楽しんでいただけたようで、嬉しく思います。 このような事がおきないようにバス会社とミーティングがさせて頂きました。
貴重なご意見を頂きありがとうございました。又オアフ島滞在の際にはお越し頂けますようお願いいたします。
マハロ、
The weather wasn't great, but I was satisfied to meet a lot of dolphins. The staff were all very kind, and I had a lot of fun. What was disappointing was that I forgot to film the dolphins and that we couldn't go to the usual snorkeling spot because of the bad weather. Thank you, Natsumi and Juli, for your help. I would like to participate again.
天気はいまひとつでしたが、たくさんのイルカに会えて満足でした。
スタッフはみなさん親切で、とても楽しかったです。
残念だったのは、イルカを動画で撮り忘れたのと、天気が悪くて
いつものシュノーケルポイントに行けなかったこと、ですね。
ナツミさん、ジュリさん、お世話になりました。
また、参加したいです。
ALOHA!! Thank you very much for participating in Dolphin University. We sincerely look forward to your next visit (may it be beautifully sunny when you come again!). MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご参加いただきありがとうございました。 またのお越しを心よりお待ちしております(次回ご参加される時は綺麗に晴れていますように!)。 MAHALO!!
I visited Wet 'n' Wild for the first time! It's located on the way from Waikiki to the Ko Olina area, and you can see many types of slides from the outside! It was August 31, and compared to similar places in Japan, there weren't many people, so I was able to ride all the attractions in under 15 minutes. There are various types of slides, each offering a unique experience! There were many slides with shapes I had never seen before. In my opinion, some of them were as scary as roller coasters. My husband usually can't handle thrill rides, and I thought he would be okay with the water slides, but as expected, he refused all the ones that looked fast. There are definitely many slides that provide that level of thrill. Additionally, there are other attractions like a lazy river, obstacle courses, and a wave pool for surfers, making it a great place for both kids and adults to have fun! You can't bring your own floaties, but it's great that you can rent them for free! There is a food court inside where you can have lunch. The menu mainly consists of junk food like hamburgers and fries. I definitely want to go back next time!
初めてウェット&ワイルドに行ってきました!場所はワイキキからコオリナ地区に向かった途中にあるのですが、外から見てもたくさんの種類のスライダーが見えます!8月31日だったのですが、日本の同様の場所と比べて、人も多くなく、すべてのアトラクションに15分以内に乗れました。色々な種類のスライダーがあって、どれも一味違ったスライダーを体験できます!初めて見る形のスライダーもたくさんありました。わたしの主観ですが、ジェットコースター並に怖いものもあります。夫が普段絶叫系に乗れない人で、ウォータースライダーなら乗れるだろうと思っていたのですが案の定見た目が速そうなやつは全部拒否されました。それぐらいスリル感があるスライダーも多くあります。また、スライダー以外にも流れるプールや、アスレチックのようなもの、サーファーのための人工で波を作るやつなど子供から大人までがっつり遊べる場所でした!浮き輪は持ち込めないのですが、無料でレンタルできるのでよかったです!食事は中にフードコートが設置されていて、そこでお昼ご飯を食べることができます。ハンバーガーやポテトなどジャンクフードが中心でした。次回行く時もぜひ行きたいと思います。
Dear Ms. Satoe Aloha,
Thank you for your valuable feedback.
We look forward to your next visit.
Mahalo,
アロハさとえ様、
貴重なご意見ありがとうございました。
又のお越しをお待ち申し上げます。
マハロ、
This was for my oldest sister when she arrived to meet up with our other sister who is working in Hawaii for two weeks.
I had gotten this lei greeting when I visited and it made me fall in love with the islands.
I wanted to share it with her too. The smile on her face in the picture I was sent was magical. The happiest smile I've seen on her in 20 years.
Mahalo for granting her that happiness.
Aloha Pegeen, Thank you very much for the feedback regarding both yours and your sister's experience during our services. We are happy to have shared a part in that wonderful and happy smile and hope that you have made wonderful memories during her stay. Again, thank you very much and have an amazing day!
The dolphins are so cute! We watched the show (in English), fed them (additional cost), and explored the not-so-large zoo-like area. We checked in ourselves, used the lockers, changed, and gathered. This locker system can be confusing for those who don't understand English. First, you need to buy a special coin for the locker at the counter (the check-in counter is separate from the one for purchasing items) for $3. You use that coin for the locker. For Japanese people, it can be unclear whether the coin is for the locker or change, and I saw someone struggling to figure out how to close the locker, thinking it was change. Although it said "deposit," it is not a deposit, and the money is not refundable. We couldn't fit all our bags into one locker, so we used two. A Japanese guide kindly explained in detail what to do for the activities, and we put on life jackets and received explanations in English. I wear contacts, and when I asked if I should wear goggles, I was told that my head wouldn't go underwater, so it was fine to keep my contacts in, but I was advised not to wear goggles. I learned the names and origins of the dolphins, and one dolphin had appeared in a movie with Johnny Depp 15 years ago, but all that information was in English. I could only understand about two-thirds of it, and although I heard the movie's name, it was one I didn't know. I couldn't find out about it after returning to Japan either.
Swimming with the dolphins was more about completing five activities: kissing them sideways, kissing them face-to-face, holding them from underneath, swimming while holding onto the dorsal fins of two dolphins, and being pushed by two dolphins while swimming, all while posing for photos and videos. At first, we all signaled each other and felt like trainers, feeding the dolphins and petting them. It was great to see their impressive jumps and tricks up close. However, the price is just too high, so I give it four stars. While I'm happy to interact with the dolphins, 25,000 yen per person is excessive. At that price, I would expect all explanations about the dolphins to be in Japanese. Since we had a very kind Japanese guide, it would have been nice to have that. It feels like they think Japanese people are just cash cows. Additionally, the prices for photos and CDs were shocking. About 5,000 yen for a set of five photos times three is no joke. But when I saw the CD being played, I really wanted it. In the end, I bought the CD and two photos each. The person with the camera was okay and explained in English, but the man filming was rude to Japanese people and had no friendliness at all. He was extremely unpleasant. There are changing rooms, but I wished there were showers.
On the bus ride there, the guide suddenly stood up and explained that there are many photo spots for first-time visitors to Hawaii, so we should have our cameras ready. I don't like taking pictures through the window, so I didn't take any, and the kids were sleeping. I also found it hard to catch everything since the guide spoke quickly in English, so I only understood about two-thirds of it. However, I was able to summarize it for the kids on the way back, so I think I understood to some extent. I was surprised because I hadn't experienced anything like this on other tours, but then I realized it was a sightseeing bus. Since it was a sightseeing bus, it made sense that the guide would explain things normally. I think it's great for those who understand English, but I wish they would speak in Japanese for those who don't. By the way, I heard that there are hardly any places in Hawaii that use plastic bags. Sometimes they are used in supermarkets, but Hawaii has decided not to use plastic bags for environmental reasons. When I tried to get a plastic bag because the photos might get wet, that was the explanation I received. I recommend bringing your own plastic bags in advance.
Also, even if tips are not listed in the "included items" on this site
イルカかわいい~!!ショー見て(英語)、餌やりをして(費用別)、あまり広くはない動物園のような園内を見て、自分でチェックインして、ロッカーを使用し、着替えて集合。このロッカーも英語がわからない人にはわかりずらいけど、まずはカウンター(チェックインカウンターと物を購入するカウンターは別)でロッカーの専用コインを3ドルで購入。そのコインでロッカーを使用します。日本人にはロッカー用コインなのかお釣りなのか分かりにくく、お釣りだと思ってロッカーをどう閉めるのか悩んでた人がいました。このロッカー、確かデポジットと書いてあったのにデポジットではなく、お金は戻らないロッカーです。うちは3人分の荷物が入りきらず、ロッカーを2つ使用しました。あとは日本人のガイドさんが丁寧に何をどうすればいいのかアクティビティについて詳しく説明してくれて、胴衣を着て今度は英語で説明を受ける。コンタクトしてるけど、ゴーグルした方がいいのかと聞いたら、頭は水につけないので、コンタクトでもかまわないけど、ゴーグルはしないように言われました。イルカの名前や由来、1頭のイルカはジョニーデップと一緒に15年前に映画にでたという話でしたが、その辺の話は全部英語。私も2/3くらいしか理解できず、映画の名前も聞いたけど、知らない映画でした。日本に帰ってから調べてもわからなかったです。イルカと一緒に泳ぐ!というよりは、5つの項目:キス横顔、キス真正面、イルカを下から抱っこポーズ、2頭の背びれにつかまって泳ぐ、2頭に足を押されて泳ぐ、というのを順番に写真やビデオにポーズをとりながらこなして行く感じでした。最初はみんなで合図をだしてトレーナー気分になったり、餌をやったり。身体をいい子いい子したり。すごいジャンプや芸も間近で見られてよかったです。ただ、あまりにも金額が高すぎるので星4つです。イルカと触れ合えるのは嬉しいけれど、一人25000円は高すぎでしょう。この値段なら、イルカのことなどの説明も全部日本語でしてほしいです。せっかく日本人のガイドさん(しかもとても親切)がいるのだから。最低限のことだけ通じればいい、というのはイルカには優しいけど、お客様には優しくありません。日本人はただの金づるだと思われてるな、と感じます。更に写真やCDが高くてびっくり。5枚セットで5000円くらい×3なんて冗談じゃない。でもCDが流されていて、見るとやはりほしい。結局、CDと写真2枚ずつ買いました。カメラの人は英語の説明をしていてまあまあ感じいいのですが、ビデオを撮影した男は日本人をばかにしていてまったく愛想がない。超感じ悪かったです。更衣室はあるけど、シャワーがほしかったです。行きのバスの中で途中から急にガイドさんが立ちあがってハワイ初めての人は写真スポットが沢山あるからカメラを用意して、と言って色々説明してくれました。わたしは窓ごしの写真はあまり好きではないので撮りませんでしたし、子ども達は寝ていました。私も英語で早口なので2/3分かったかどうか…。でも帰りに子ども達にかいつまんで話せたので、ある程度は理解できていたと思います。他のツアーではこんなことなかったのでびっくりしましたが、そういえば、バスが観光バスだなと思いました。観光バスなので普通にガイドさんが説明するのだと。英語が分かる人にはとってもいいと思います。分からない人は日本語で話してほしいと思いますが。ちなみにハワイにはビニール袋を扱っているところはほとんどないそうです。たまにスーパーなどで使っているけど、今ハワイはエコのために、ビニール袋を使用しないように決められているのだそうです。写真が濡れるからビニール袋をもらおうとしたらそう説明されました。予め自分でビニール袋を用意して行くことをお勧めします。
あと、このサイトの「含まれるもの」にチップと書いてなくてもチップが含まれているオプションも沢山ありました。いちいち15%~20%?と最初はまじめに考えて計算していきましたが、現地で各ツアーに電話で確認しました。ほとんどいらなかったです。まず、チップが必要なものでも20%は払いすぎ。アメリカ人は15%が普通だそうで、それも面白かったら払うだけで、必ず払わなければいえけないわけではありません。なんか日本人は英語が話せない人も多く、チップを多め多めに払うようで、すごくあきれられています。全く当たり前のように払わないのも問題ですが、あくまでも定額以上の仕事をしてくれたら、です。
A completely different look at what Hawaii has to offer. Very much worthwhile
I arrived before the 10:30 opening and was told to wait until 10:15 to exchange my ticket. People who purchased tickets on the day could buy them around 10:00. Since those who bought tickets could line up for entry, I wondered if it would have been better to buy on the day. However, the all-you-can-drink soft drinks are worth it if you have three cups, so that was nice. But the options are a bit lacking, as the carbonated drinks like Pepsi and Mountain Dew are mixed with overly sweet fruit juices without carbonation. I wish there was water available. There are mostly thrilling water slides, and compared to Japan, it's less crowded, so you can slide continuously. If you're not good with this kind of thing, it's better not to go. For those who enjoy it, you can slide as much as you want and be very satisfied.
10時半のオープン前に到着し、チケットに取り換えようとしたら、10:15まで待つように言われました。当日購入の人は10時ごろから買えているのに。チケットを買えた人から入場の列に並べるので、当日購入の方がよかったのかな、と。でもソフトドリンク飲み放題は、3杯飲めば元が取れるので、まぁよかったかな。ただ、ペプシやマウンテンデューなどの炭酸系と、炭酸なしは甘ったるいフルーツジュースなので、選択肢がイマイチかも。水が飲みたいのにな、と思います。ほぼ絶叫ウォータースライダーしかなく、日本に比べてすいているので立て続けに滑れます。こういうのが苦手な人は行かない方がいいでしょう。好きな人はめいっぱい滑れて大満足です。
Aloha Kimi,
Thank you for your valuable feedback. We will work on improving the drinks.
We look forward to your next visit.
アロハKimi様、
貴重なご意見ありがとうございました。飲み物は改善させて頂きます。
又のお越しをお待ち申し上げます。
was a unique experience going underwater. had a lot of windows to look out at all angles and toured many wrecks and reefs. got to see sharks sea turtles and a large assortment of fish. good value
had a great time, the staff were very friendly and helpful. They had an assortment of drinks for the passengers. great value
We are a couple in our 50s, participating with our 4th-year university daughter. We were unsure about the morning program, but this plan turned out to be the right choice. The sandbar was beautiful, but there weren't many fish while snorkeling, so it felt a bit lacking. However, the snorkeling after moving to the coral reef was absolutely satisfying. We experienced schools of fish and saw a turtle up close in the water, which was an unforgettable experience. The hamburgers for lunch were delicious, and I want to thank the man who entertained us on the bus and Yuki, who was very attentive on the boat. My wife and daughter were also very satisfied!
54歳同士の夫婦、大学4年生の娘と3人で参加。午前中のプログラムと迷いましたが、このプランで正解。サンドバーは綺麗でしたが、シュノーケリングしても魚もいないので、こんなものかなぁと。その後の、珊瑚棚に移動してからのシュノーケリングが大満足。魚の群れ入るは、海の中でホヌが至近で見られるは、これまでに無い経験。ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったし、行きのバスを盛り上げてくれたおじさん、船でいろいろと気を使ってくれたユキさん、ありがとうございました。かみさんも娘も大満足でした!
We had a great time and it's definitely worthwhile to check out the Sandbar. The water is just beautiful and great snorkelling too. Lunch was also very decent. We had hamburger and pineapples and tortilla chips on the side. The only thing that bothered us was that the Captain kept on assuming we are Japanese and that we don't speak English (given that there are a lot of Japanese tourists on the boat). He repeatedly tried to communicate with us in very broken Japanese. We look Asian, but we are Canadian and we don't understand Japanese. I always reply him in English but he keeps forgetting that we speak English. Maybe he thinks we all look the same. He loved making conversations in English with Caucasian guests, called out the non-Asian names on his list of guests, and ask them where they were from, whether they were celebrating an occasion, but made no effort to talk to us the same way. The translator, think his name was Freddie, initially assumed we were Japanese too but caught on right away that we are English speakers which was great. Other staff were very nice and helpful. Overall we did have a great time and I would recommend this, only the Captain frustrated us a little.
I participated in the morning whale watching tour. Perhaps due to the cloudy sky, the whales didn't show up. Since I was returning home that day, I couldn't use a rain check. It's unfortunate, but it's nature, so there's nothing to be done. However, as a birdwatching enthusiast, I was relieved to see the rendezvous flight of the white tern from the boat.
午前のホエールウォッチングに参加しました。曇り空のせいか、クジラさんは出てくれませんでした。その日に帰国するので、レインチェックも使えず。自然が相手なのでしかたないのですが、残念でした。バードウォッチングが趣味なので、船上からシロアジサシのランデブー飛翔が見られたのが救いでした。
Thank you very much for participating in our whale watching cruise. We are very sorry that you were unable to see any whales. I wasn't aware of the name "Shiroajisashi," but it's a beautiful photo. The whale season will begin again on December 15th. If you have the opportunity, please come back to search for whales again. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

機会がありましたら、是非またクジラを探しにいらして下さい。
皆様のまたのお越しをスタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
