All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

We participated in a tour with lunch as a family. The air conditioning in the car was quite strong. We were divided into a cruiser and a smaller boat, and we were on the smaller boat. While it may not have been as stylish, it was nice to be surrounded by families with small children, creating a homely atmosphere.

We saw plenty of sea turtles, and at the sandbar, the staff helped with taking photos and even got everyone involved in beach volleyball. The snorkeling lasted about 30 to 40 minutes, and they constantly reminded us from the boat to be careful as "the coral can cut your feet."

The BBQ hamburger for lunch was exceptionally delicious, and we appreciated the prompt drink service as soon as we boarded, as well as the warm drinks after snorkeling (it was quite windy and cold that day).

While it does depend on the weather, I think it's worth going at least once.

ランチ付のツアーに家族で参加しました。
行きの車中はクーラーがかなりきいてました。
船はクルザーと小さめのボートに分かれて乗りましたが私たちは小さめの船でした。かっこよさでは劣りますが家族連ればかりで小さなお子さんたちもいてアットホームな感じでこちらで良かったと思いました。
ウミガメもたくさん見れたし、サンドバーではスタッフの方が撮影に協力してくれたりビーチバレーをして盛り上げてくれました。シュノーケリングは３０~４０分ほどあり「珊瑚の上は足が切れるので気をつけてくださ~い」と常に船上から声かけしてくれてました。
ランチのBBQハンバーガーは絶妙に美味しく乗船してすぐにドリンクのサービスやシュノーケリング後の温かいドリンク（この日は風が強く寒かった）の心遣いも嬉しかったです。
お天気に左右されますが１度は行ってみても良いと思います。

Initially, we had signed up for a different tour, but we changed to this one at my husband's request to try kayaking. Since this was our first time on this type of tour, I can't make comparisons, but in the end, we were extremely satisfied!

We were part of the early morning group, so I started with worries about whether I could wake up and if I would be physically okay for snorkeling after ten years (I used to love it when I was younger). However, there was a morning call, and once we participated, everything turned out fine! We had three chances to encounter wild dolphins, and during one of those, we got really close. Unfortunately, we could only see sea turtles from the boat, but some people were able to swim right next to them.

The staff were all cheerful and kind, and they were very supportive of the children who couldn't get in the water. My child was thrilled to feed tropical fish and to see dolphins and sea turtles from the boat. They said they want to swim with them next time, so they plan to practice swimming and join again. When we go to Hawaii next time, we definitely want to "enroll" in this experience!

*If you have your own snorkeling set, I recommend bringing it. It's easier to adjust the size. Larger fins are also better. The rental gear is small, so it can be difficult for those who lack strength to move forward.
*If you're not confident in your swimming, make sure to communicate that and swim close to the lead staff. That way, you're more likely to see dolphins.
*Please avoid splashing around in the water! I wish there had been a more thorough briefing about this on the boat.

Next time, I definitely want to get close to the turtles!

最初は違うツアーに申し込んでいたのですが、カヤックが
やってみたいという夫のリクエストでこちらへ変更。
この手のツアーは初めてなので比較はできませんが、結果的に大大満足でよかったです！

早朝グループだったので、起きられるのかどうかという不安から始まり、１０年ぶりのシュノーケリングが体力的に大丈夫なのかなど心配事ばかりでした。（若いころは好きでよくやってたんですけどね）
でも、朝はモーニングコールもありますし、いざ参加しちゃえばなんとかなります、なりました！
野生のイルカとエンカウントのチャンスは３回あり、そのうちの１回ですぐ近くまで行けました。あいにく海亀は船上から見るだけでしたが、すぐそばに行って泳げた方もいました。
スタッフは皆さん明るく優しく、海に入れなかった子どもへのフォローも温かでした。子どもは熱帯魚にパンをあげられたこと、舟の上からイルカと海亀に会えたことがとても嬉しかったそうです。今度は海の中で一緒に泳ぎたい、だから泳ぎを頑張って、また参加したいとのことです。
次にハワイに行くときは、ぜひ『学士入学』したいです。

※もしもご自分のシュノーケルセットを持っているなら、それを持っていくことをオススメします。サイズ調整とかやっぱり楽なので。フィンも大きいほうがいいです。レンタルギアは小型なので、力のない方は進みにくいです。
※泳ぎに自信がない方は、ちゃんとアピールして先頭スタッフの近くで泳ぎましょう。そのほうがイルカに会いやすいです。
※バチャバチャと水面をたたいて泳ぐのは絶対やめて~~！！お願い！！！　このことは、船上でもっとしっかりレクチャーをしておいていただけたらありがたかったな。

次は絶対亀さんの近くに行きたいです。

I participated in a tour that included lunch. I was able to enjoy beautiful views of the sandbar, turtle watching, and snorkeling. During snorkeling, I saw many fish, and my son was thrilled to encounter a turtle. The lunch consisted of freshly grilled hamburgers, which I found delicious. The staff was friendly, and we had a great time.

ランチ付きのツアーに参加しました。
美しいサンドバーの風景やウミガメウオッチング、シュノーケリングなどを満喫できました。シュノーケリングの際は魚もたくさん見ることが出来、息子はウミガメにも出会えたと喜んでおりました。ランチは焼きたてのハンバーガーで香ばしく、私的にはおいしかったです。スタッフも気さくで大変楽しい時を過ごすことが出来ました。

We participated in an activity that could be enjoyed by three generations, including my parents and children, totaling eight people. We joined the first Japanese-guided tour of the day. Although our guide was not Japanese, they entertained us with fluent language skills. We were lucky enough to see sea turtles swimming, which was wonderful. My 65-year-old grandfather was also very excited to see the turtles. Since we had to move by boat before and after boarding the submarine, it's essential to bring motion sickness medication. Don't worry, there are etiquette bags available in case you feel unwell on the submarine.

３世代で楽しめるアクティビティはないかと、両親、子供を含め８人で参加しました。
朝一番の日本語ガイドのツアーに参加。
ガイドさんは日本人ではないのですが、流暢な言葉使いで楽しませてくれます。私たちはラッキーなことに海ガメが泳いでいるところをみることが出来て良かったです。
６５歳のおじいちゃんもカメの泳ぐ姿を見て大興奮でした。
潜水艦に乗り込む前後は船で移動となるので、酔い止めの薬は必携。万一潜水艦で気分が悪くなってもエチケット袋はあるのでご安心を。

I participated at my son's request. I was worried about seasickness, but it was not a problem at all. There weren't many fish to see, but the kids were surprised to see the sunken airplane. It can be a bit cold inside the ship, so it might be a good idea to bring a jacket. Also, when getting on and off the submarine, you need to use a ladder for a few meters. It might be better to avoid wearing a mini skirt or a maxi skirt.

息子の希望で参加しました。船酔いが心配でしたが全く問題ありませんでした。見られる魚はそれ程多くはありませんでしたが、子供たちは沈んだ飛行機などを見てビックリしてました。艦内は少し寒いので上着を持って行った方がいいかも。あと、せんすいかに乗り込む時と出る時に数メートルはしごを使います。ミニスカートもしくはマキシ丈スカートはやめた方がいいかな。

It was very beautiful and fun.
The food was quite delicious as well.
Anyway, be prepared to get sunburned!! No matter how much you apply, you'll still get burned.
Women were wearing T-shirts over their swimsuits. He had peeling skin from sunburn on his shoulders.
A waterproof camera is handy. They take one photo for you on the tour. I think it was around 20 dollars?

　とってもきれいで、楽しかったです。
　ご飯もなかなかおいしかったです。
とにかく日焼け覚悟で！！どんなに塗ってもやけます。
女性は、水着の上にTシャツきてました。彼は肩の日焼けで皮がむけていました。
防水カメラあると便利です。ツアーで写真１枚はとってくれます。確か２０ドルくらい？だったかな。

This is my second time on the Body Glove snorkeling tour this year. Last year was so great that I decided to repeat it. This year, my 7-year-old and 5-year-old kids were extremely satisfied. They enjoyed not only snorkeling but also the slide and jumping in. The parents enjoyed a BBQ on the boat, and we definitely ate too much. We got to see dolphins both on the way to and from the snorkeling point, which was just amazing! It was really wonderful. We'll be going again next year.

Body Glove のシュノーケルツアーは今年で２回目。
去年、とても良かったのでリピートしました。
今年も、７歳と５歳の子供達、大大大大満足。
シュノーケルはもちろん、スライダーや飛び込みを楽しんでいました。
両親は船上ＢＢＱを楽しんでいました。
食べすぎ注意なくらい。
イルカにはシュノーケルポイントへの行きも帰りも会えて、もう最高！
ほんとによかったです。
来年も行きます。

Nothing like reliving history. Im posible to spend only an hour on the MIssiouri 1/2 day easy to see it all ! Tour guides exceptional !

We had booked a shuttle service, but there was a little mishap... Our family of four was left behind... We contacted the hotel staff, and in the end, we took a taxi to the location. The taxi fare was supposed to be covered by the company, but since it was discussed over the phone, I wasn't entirely sure about it, so I paid upfront. Later, when I followed up through this service, I found that the amount was properly refunded to my credit card. I truly realized that this is a trustworthy company.

As for the activities, we signed up for them with our two children, aged 4 and 1. My 4-year-old son signed up for an activity to swim with dolphins and rays, but it seemed a bit too early for him, and he cried a little... However, both my son and my 1-year-old daughter were thrilled to interact with the dolphins, and they even got to shake hands and kiss them, which was a bit surprising! We also got some commemorative photos taken, and we were very satisfied. My 4-year-old son keeps saying, "The dolphins were so cute. It was so much fun," even after returning home.

Both the kids and adults had a great time and felt truly rejuvenated; it was a wonderful trip. I definitely want to participate again next year. Thank you very much!

送迎付きを申し込んでいたのですがちょっとしたハプニングが･･･。私たち家族4人が置いていかれてしまい･･･。ホテルの人に連絡をとっていただき結局はタクシーで現地に向かいました。タクシー代は会社側が支払っていただけることになっていましたが、電話での話だったのでいまいち信用はしていなかったのですがとりあえず立て替えということで支払いをしました。後日こちらを通して連絡したところきちんとクレジットカードに送金されていました。信頼おける会社だと改めて実感しました。

アクティビティの内容ですが4歳1歳の子供と四人で申し込みました。4歳息子はイルカに加えエイと泳ぐアクティビティも申し込みましたが4歳にはまだ早すぎたようで少し泣いていました･･･。
が、イルカは４歳息子はもちろん1歳娘も大喜びで、ちょっとびっくりながらもイルカと握手＆キスを！
記念の写真も撮ってもらい大満足でした。
4歳息子は帰国後も「イルカさん可愛かったねぇ。たのしかったねぇ」の連続です。
子供はもちろん大人も楽しくすごく癒され本当にいい旅になりました。来年も是非参加したいとおもいます。ありがとうございました。

The sandbar that forms in the ocean was indeed beautiful. When the boat arrived at the sandbar, we first had a photo session, and the staff were very cooperative in taking pictures. This lasted about 20 minutes.

After that, we went snorkeling, but this time was less than five minutes. My child's mask didn't fit well, and I was a bit late to start, so we ended up finishing in just 2-3 minutes! This was far too short. I've done a lot of snorkeling before, but I've never experienced such a brief session.

To make matters worse, on the way back, the staff jokingly mentioned that tips would be appreciated. From my perspective, I thought we had already paid for the experience, including tips.

One reason for the short snorkeling time might be the delay with the pickup vehicle. In fact, the pickup car didn't arrive until about 15 minutes after the scheduled time. I wondered if someone was running late. Just as I was thinking of calling, the car arrived, but no one was inside. It seemed like it was just delayed. After about five minutes of riding, we were made to switch to another bus, which was eerily quiet. As I walked down the aisle to find an open seat at the back, someone said, "How long are you going to make us wait?!"

We had been waiting for 10 minutes before the scheduled time, yet it felt like we were the ones who were late. Now that I think about it, the bus was parked far away when we switched, which seemed like an attempt to hide the fact that they were late.

The ocean was mystical and beautiful, but honestly, I cannot recommend this experience. I'm sorry.

海の中にできる島サンドバー。確かに美しかったです。
ボートがサンドバーに到着すると、まず撮影タイム。スタッフの方も撮影に協力してくれます。そんな時間が20分ほど。
そしてそのあとシュノーケル。この時間なんと５分足らず。
子供のマスクがうまく調節できず、ちょっと出遅れた私は、2~3分で終了！！これはあまりにもひどすぎました。今までシュノーケルを散々してきましたが、こんな短時間は初めてです。
おまけに帰りは、スタッフが冗談ぽくではありますが、チップをいただければなんて。こちらから言わせれば、チップも込みで参加費払ってるんではっと思いました。
なんでこんなにシュノーケルが短いのか、原因の一つは送迎の車のせいかも？？
実はお迎えの車、集合時間１５分ぐらいすぎてもお迎えの車が来なかったんです。どこかで遅刻した人がいるのかな~。電話しようかな~とその時、車が来たのですが誰も乗っておらず。ただ単に遅れたたけのようです。５分ほど乗ったあと、別のバスに乗り換えさせられたのですが、そのなかはシーンとしており、一番後ろの開いている席に行こうとバスの通路を歩いていたら、「いつまでまたせんだよ」と言われ！！！
私たちは、集合時間の10分前から待っていたのに私たちが遅刻した雰囲気。そういえば乗り換える時も、バスから離れたところに止め。今考えると遅刻したのを隠すため？と思うような行動でした。
海は神秘的で美しかったですが、正直お勧めできません。
ごめんなさい。

I was thrilled to encounter a rare dolphin that can only be found here. It's embarrassing in Japan, but I can do it overseas. The sensation of that dolphin is worth experiencing.

ここにしかいない、珍しいイルカに遭遇でき感激しました。日本では恥ずかしいけど海外ならできますね。
あのイルカの感触は体感の価値ありです

There is a novelty in being able to ride a submarine. However, it feels more like peering into an aquarium tank. I was happy to see two sea turtles, but at Okinawa's Churaumi Aquarium, you can see sea turtles up close.
In conclusion, if you want to see marine life, you should go to an aquarium. Only those who want to experience riding a submarine should participate in this tour. Otherwise, I think marine life enthusiasts will be disappointed.

潜水艦に乗れるという物珍しさはあります。しかし、感覚としては水族館の水槽を覗いているといった感じです。海亀を２匹も見れたのは嬉しかったですが、沖縄の美ら海水族館の方がもっと間近に海亀を見れます。
結論としては、海の生き物を見たければ水族館に行きましょう。一度潜水艦に乗ってみたい人だけがこのツアーに参加しましょう。でないと、海の生き物好きはガッカリすると思います。

I went on a trip to Hawaii from July 12 to July 17. One of the main events was participating in a snorkeling tour with dolphins. The pickup was at 5:50 AM, which was tough, but I was very satisfied as I got to see a pod of dolphins. While they weren't right in front of me, I was still quite pleased. The hula experience was also enjoyable and satisfying.

7/12~7/17の期間でハワイ旅行へ行ってきました。その中のメインイベントとしてイルカとシュノーケリングのツアーに参加しました。
ピックアップが5：50と早朝だったので大変でしたが、イルカの群れはバッチシ見れて大変満足でした。
目の前にイルカが！というほどではありませんでしたが、十分満足できました。
フラ体験も楽しく満足でした。

The weather was unfortunately bad on the day, so the photos turned out disappointing, but the staff's service was attentive and I had a great time! On the way to the sandbar, we moved slowly and were able to see sea turtles! The lunch we had on the boat was also very delicious, and above all, the staff were amazing!

当日はあいにくの天気でしたので、
写真は残念な感じでしたが、スタッフさんの対応が丁寧でとても楽しかったです！
サンドバーに向かう途中にゆっくり進み、海ガメを見ることもできました！
船で食べたランチもとてもおいしく、何よりスタッフさんが最高でした！

Unfortunately, it rained all day, it was cold, and the sandbar didn't appear, so I felt like I just did some snorkeling and went back. Due to my lack of experience, I rated it three stars. However, there was one interesting staff member who worked hard to keep things lively, so I didn't get bored on the boat. I can imagine it would have been fun if it had been sunny, warm, and the sandbar had appeared.

不運な事に終日雨が降っており、寒く、サンドバーも現れず、
シュノーケルだけやって帰ったという感じでしたので、
体験不足により評価不能という事で星三つにしてます。
ただ、面白いスタッフが一人いて、一生懸命盛り上げてくれたおかげでボートの中で飽きる事はありませんでした。
晴れてて、暖かく、サンドバーが現れていたら楽しかったんだろうなぁ、とは想像します。

Our lei representative was really fantastic and had great knowledge of the airport and Hawaii. Thanks for being on time my family; especially the ladies loved the lei they received.

Hawaii Bound Again

The sub was great, the staff were great. Bookings.com suck. They reserved us on a Japanese only tour. We could have changed but it would have been the next day. Took the verbal portion away. we had headphones that would explain it in english but not so good with the main staff speaking to the group in Japanese. I have a 5 and 8 year old so it made it more difficult for them. Make sure you confirm what the booked you for !!

My family and I had a wonderful time. The entire night we were laughing and enjoying the show. The view is beautiful and the staff was great. I would definitely recommend this to people looking for a Luau.

I participated in Dolphin Adventure with my two daughters, while my wife observed. Upon arrival, a Japanese staff member explained the overall flow of the experience. The instructors for the program were all foreigners and did not speak Japanese, but since the Japanese staff provided a thorough explanation beforehand, there were no issues. As long as you understand some basic words, you'll be fine.

Both my daughter and I were very satisfied with the experience, which is something you can't do in Japan. The photos of my daughters turned out with the best smiles. However, the distance while swimming with the dolphins was about 3 to 4 meters, and it only lasted a few seconds. The cost performance is questionable.

Also, observers can participate in the activities and take photos, but they can't get too close. Lunch is also affordable, costing around $10 per person.

ドルフィン・アドベンチャーに参加してきました。
娘2人と私が参加、嫁さんは見学です。
着いてからは日本人？のスタッフが全体の流れを説明してくれました、体験プログラムでのインストラクターは外人のみで日本語はＮＧでしたが先に日本人スタッフがしっかりと説明してくれていたので問題なしです、簡単な単語が分かれば何とかなります。

日本では体験出来ないような内容に娘も私も大満足。
出来上がった写真の娘たちは最高の笑顔です。
でもイルカと一緒に泳ぐ距離は3～4ｍ位、数秒で終りでした。
コストパフォーマンスは？？？

あと、見学者も一緒に行動出来るし、写真もとれますよ。でも近くまでは行けないけどね。
お昼ごはんは1人$10もあればＯＫです。

I had a great time interacting with the dolphins! Since even small children can participate, it's a fun experience for the whole family.

イルカとふれあえてとても楽しかった！
小さな子供も参加できるので家族で楽しむことができます。

I was worried about whether I would be able to see the beautiful sandbar due to the cloudy weather, but by the time we arrived at the sandbar, the weather had cleared up! The sensation of stepping barefoot on the mysterious beach that appeared in the middle of the ocean was amazing! This tour focuses on experiencing the sandbar, so getting to that location is a priority. It was fun to see sea turtles and take photos along the way, but if I had to say something, I think the meals could be a bit more substantial. For example, having lunch on the sandbar would be great... (there may be regulations, though...), having just one sandwich on the boat feels a bit lacking. I'm looking forward to it!

あいにくの曇りの天候できれいなサンドバーに会えるか心配でしたが，サンドバーに到着するころには天候も回復！海のど真ん中に現れた不思議な砂浜を素足で踏みしめる感覚は最高でした！このツアーはサンドバーを体験することがメインなのでその場所に行くことを重視しています．途中ウミガメを見たり写真撮影は楽しかったですが，しいて言えば食事がもう少し充実していると良いと思います．例えばサンドバーの上でランチとか・・（規制があるのかもしれませんが・・），船上でサンドイッチ１枚はちょっとさびしいです．期待しています！

Staff was excellent!! Todd, Larry and ALL staff were extremely helpful & courteous. Highly recommend doing the Snuba, well worth the extra $. Larry got my wife and daughter-in-law underwater in a short time. Both were very hesitant at first and I had asked that they only try. The whole gig was GREAT!

This was my first trip to Hawaii since elementary school, and I thought, "I definitely want to swim with dolphins," so I decided to participate.

We gathered at a little after 6 AM, which made for an early wake-up call, but since we were able to make good use of our time after returning to Honolulu in the afternoon, I think it turned out well.

First, we went to Leonard's Bakery to eat malasadas. The warm malasadas were very delicious. They were like a donut without the filling.

I felt a bit seasick while heading out on the boat, but I was able to encounter dolphins safely. I was hoping to swim with them for a while, but wild dolphins move very quickly, and it felt like just a brief moment.

After arriving at the offshore point, it took some time to spot the dolphins, so we had to wait on the boat for a long time, which was tough on my seasick body.

I think it's best to bring motion sickness medication if you can!

After that, we also encountered sea turtles. I was really surprised to be able to swim so close to them and realized they weren't afraid of humans at all.

Although my encounter with the dolphins felt like just a fleeting moment, I was truly satisfied to swim with many dolphins and baby dolphins.

As others have mentioned in their reviews, the local staff were very cheerful and bright, and they had plenty of activities to entertain the participants, which really lifted my spirits.

I highly recommend this tour!

　
　小学生の時以来のハワイ旅行で、「ぜひイルカと泳いでみたいな。」と思い参加しました。

　朝は、６時すぎに集合するので、早起きはちょっと大変でしたが、午後ホノルルに戻ってからも時間が有効に使えたので、結果的には良かったかなと思います。

　まずは、レナーズベーカリーのマラサダを食べにお店に行きます。あたたかいマラサダはとても美味しかったです。
　あんドーナツの餡が入っていないようなものでした。

　船で沖に向かうのに若干船酔いをしてしまいましたが、イルカには無事に出遭うことができました。
「しばらく一緒に泳げるのかな」と期待していたのですが、自然のイルカは動きがとても速く、ほんの一瞬のことだったように思います。
　
　沖のポイントに着いてからも、イルカを探し当てるのに時間がかかるため、船上での待機の時間が長く、船酔い気味の体には堪えました。

　できたら酔い止めを持参した方が良いと思います！

　その後、ウミガメにも出遭えました。
　本当にそばで泳ぐことができ、「人間を恐れていないんだなー」とビックリしました。

　イルカとの出会いはほんの一瞬の出来事だったように思いますが、沢山のイルカと赤ちゃんイルカと泳ぐことができ、本当に大満足です。

　他の口コミで皆さん書かれているように、現地のスタッフの方もとても陽気で明るく、参加者を楽しませる企画が盛りだくさんで、元気をもらうことができました。

　オススメのツアーです！

Although we could see dolphins from the boat, they didn't appear much during snorkeling, which made me feel that swimming with wild dolphins really depends on luck. Since it was summer vacation, there were more than 30 participants. I thought it was a bit too crowded. As for those who are prone to seasickness, including myself, it seemed that no one got seasick even on a fairly rocky boat, possibly because they had taken medication.

船からはイルカがみえるのに、シュノーケリングのときには
なかなか現れないので野生のイルカと泳ぐのは運のなかとつくづく感じた。
夏休みということもあり、参加者が30人以上いた。
ちょっと詰めすぎではないかな
酔いやすい人は、わたしを含め薬を服用していたのか、かなり揺れる船でも酔っている人は、一人もいなかった。

Was met at the gate on my flight's arrival. Staff was very friendly and welcoming to the Islands. They were also very helpful in navigating through the airport

I participated in this for the first time in Hawaii with a friend. I was really moved! I was worried because they mentioned beforehand that we might not see any wild dolphins, but I was able to meet more dolphins than I expected. It was such a great experience to swim so close to wild dolphins and turtles. My dream came true, and I was very satisfied. I could see the dolphins jumping up close, and I swam so near to the turtles that I was worried I might touch them.

The tropical fish were also very beautiful, and I took a lot of photos. It was lovely to release plumeria flowers into the sea from the boat while making a wish.

Leonard's malasadas and the cheeseburger I had on the boat were both delicious, and the staff were cheerful and fun. The ukulele and hula were great too. The scenery was wonderful, and I felt like I received a lot of positive energy.

It was tough to wake up early, but it was definitely worth it to join this tour. It became my most enjoyable memory of this trip to Hawaii.

I definitely want to participate again.

Thank you so very much!

初めてのハワイで友人と参加しました。
すごく感動しました！野生のイルカなので会えないこともあると事前にお話があり心配でしたが、予想以上にたくさんのイルカたちと会うことができました。あんな近くで野生のイルカや亀と泳げるなんて、とても良い経験ができました。夢が叶い大満足です。イルカのジャンプもまじかで見ることができ、亀も触ってしまうのではと心配になるくらいの近くで一緒に泳ぐことができました。

熱帯魚たちもとてもキレイで写真をたくさん撮りました。
プルメリアの花を船から海へお祈りしながら流すのも素敵でした。

レナーズのマラサダも、船の上で食べたチーズバーガーもとてもおいしくスタッフさん達も陽気で楽しいし、ウクレレやフラも良かったです。
また景色も素晴らしくたくさんのパワーをもらうことができたと思います。

朝が早くて大変ですが、早起きしてでも行く価値があるツアーでした。今回のハワイ滞在で一番楽しい思い出になりました。

必ずまた参加したいです。

本当に本当にありがとうございました。

On my first trip to Hawaii, I joined my friends. Waking up early was a bit challenging, but it was definitely worth it!

The first stop was Leonard's for malasadas, and even though it was early in the morning, there was a line, so it was clear it was a popular spot. The taste was, of course, delicious.

I heard on the bus to the harbor that we might not see wild dolphins, which made me a little anxious...

After arriving at the harbor, we boarded the boat and had a romantic experience of releasing a song and plumeria flowers into the sea to wish for a safe journey. It took about 30 minutes to reach the area where the dolphins were. (Make sure to take motion sickness medication.)

I was surprised that the captain and guide could tell where the dolphins were just by looking at the surface of the water.

We decided on a spot and headed into the sea! The water was, of course, beautiful! (It was the best sea I visited during my stay in Hawaii!) When the guide signaled, I peered into the seabed and was able to see many dolphins. While enjoying snorkeling, I spotted a dolphin swimming towards the surface, so I quickly waited at the surface and was able to see a dolphin jump up close. I was so excited that not only did I see the dolphins, but I also got to swim very close to a sea turtle, worrying that I might touch it!

We moved to another location where I could snorkel with beautiful tropical fish and sea turtles, and I was able to take many photos as memories.

After snorkeling, the snacks, cheeseburgers, and juice we had on the boat were exceptional. On the way back to the harbor, we enjoyed the guide's ukulele performance, live singing, and learned hula dancing, which made for a fun time.

One disappointing thing was that we couldn't kayak or stand-up paddle due to strong winds. Considering safety, it was understandable, so I look forward to trying it next time.

This trip became my most enjoyable memory during my stay in Hawaii. I will definitely participate again the next time I go to Hawaii.

Thank you so much to the captain and guide!

初めてのハワイ旅行、友人と参加しました。朝早いのは少し大変でしたが、早起きして絶対損はありません！！
まずはじめに立ち寄ったレナーズのマラサダは早朝にも関わらず行列ができていたので人気店なのはすぐにわかりました。味はもちろんおいしかったです。

港に着くまでのバスの中で野生のイルカなので会えないこともあると聞いたので少し不安になりましが・・・。

港到着後船に乗り込み、旅の安全を願ってうたとプルメイヤの花を海へ流すというロマンチックな体験もできました。約３０分でイルカ先生たちのいる場所へ。（酔い止めは必ず飲んだ方がいいです。）

船長さん、ガイドさんは水面を見ているだけでイルカのいる場所がわかるのにはびっくりしました。

スポットを決めいざ海へ！！海はもちろん綺麗です！（ハワイ滞在中の行った海で一番！！）ガイドさんの合図で海底を覗くとたくさんのイルカ先生たちに会うことができました。シュノーケルを楽しんでいるとイルカ先生が海面に向かって泳いでいるのを発見したのですぐに海面で待っているとドルフィンジャンプをまじかで見ることができ、興奮していると、イルカ先生だけではなくウミガメ先生を海面から顔を出してくれ触ってしまうのではと、心配になるくらいの近くで一緒に泳ぐことができました。

別の場所へ移動をし、綺麗な熱帯魚とウミガメ先生とシュノーケルができ、たくさんの写真を思い出に残すことができました。

シュノーケルが終わり、船で食べたスナック・チーズバーガー・ジュースは格別の味でした。港に帰る間はガイドさんたちのウクレレの演奏・生歌・フラダンスを教えていただき、楽しいひと時を過ごすことができました。

一つ残念だったことは、カヤック・スタンドアは風が強くてできなかったことです。安全面を考えたら仕方のないことですので、次回の楽しみにします。

今回ハワイ滞在で一番楽しい思い出になりました。次にハワイに行くときも必ず参加します。

船長さん・ガイドさん本当にありがとうございました。

I experienced a dolphin encounter on my first trip to Hawaii.

**What to Wear and Bring:**
- Swimsuit (I wore it from the hotel. There are few changing rooms and not much time, so it's definitely better to wear it from the hotel.)
- Beach sandals (I wore these too.)
- Bath towel (Purchased at an ABC Store in Hawaii)
- Sunscreen (You can get quite sunburned)
- Lightweight hoodie (For wind and sun protection)
- Digital camera
- Reservation confirmation
- Underwear (Since I went in a swimsuit, don't forget!)
- Money (I brought about $80 per person)

I participated in a package with hotel pickup for the 9:30 AM program. I got on the shuttle bus at 8:30 and arrived at the park around 9:20. I hurriedly signed the consent form and changed clothes. The coin locker for valuables costs $3, and one is enough for a family. You can take non-valuable items to the poolside.

The program lasts about 30 minutes. Our group was all Japanese. The instructor was also Japanese. There were participants ranging from a one-year-old child to a grandfather in his 70s. The dolphin, Kekaimaru, is a half-dolphin, half-whale. It had very gentle eyes and was adorable. We kissed and danced with it. The performance right in front of us was very satisfying. Even the little kids, held by their parents, were a bit nervous but enjoyed interacting with Kekaimaru.

After the program, we had free time until the return bus. The park itself is small, so you can finish exploring it quickly. The dolphin show is wonderful, so be sure to see it. You can really feel the trust between the instructor and the dolphins, which is lovely.

After the show, we had a meal at the park's restaurant. It's self-service. I had the kalua pork (steamed pork) from the plate lunch options. If you're a light eater, one dish is enough for two people. The taste is decent, about the same level as meals at Japanese theme parks.

Also, the program photos are three for $40. You can buy them individually, but they are really well taken, so you'll probably want all three (laughs).

I was moved by the adorable sight of the large dolphins right in front of me. It's enjoyable for everyone from small children to grandparents. I highly recommend it!

・水着(ホテルから着て行きました。更衣室も少ないし、時間もないのでホテルで着て行った方が絶対いいです。)
・ビーチサンダル(これも履いて行きました。)
・バスタオル(ハワイのABCストアで購入)
・日焼け止め(かなり焼けます)
・薄手のパーカー(風よけ、日よけに)
・デジカメ
・予約表
・下着(水着で行くので、忘れないように！)
・お金(一人80ドルくらい持って行きました)

ホテルからの送迎付きパッケージで朝一9:30のプログラムに参加。
8:30にホテルから迎えのバスに乗り、パークに着いたのが9:20くらい。慌ただしく同意書を書いて、着替えます。
貴重品のコインロッカーは３ドル。家族でひとつで十分。
貴重品以外のものはプールサイドまで持っていけます。

プログラムは30分程度。わたしたちのグループは日本人のみ。
インストラクターさんもの日本の方でした。
１歳くらいの子どもから、70代のおじいちゃんまでいました。
イルカとクジラのハーフというケカイマル。
とっても優しい瞳で、かわいかったです。
キスしたり、ダンスしたり。目の前でパフォーマンスしてくれて大満足。小さな子どもたちもお父さんお母さんに抱っこされて、ちょっぴりドキドキしながらもケカイマルちゃんとふれあっていました。

プログラム後は帰りのバスまで自由行動。
園自体は小さいのですぐに見終わります。
イルカショーは素晴らしいのでぜひ見てください。
とにかくインストラクターのお姉さんとイルカたちがお互いに信頼している様子が伝わってきて、素敵です。

ショーの後に園内のレストランで食事。セルフサービスです。
プレートランチの中からカルアポーク(蒸し豚)を食べました。
少食の方なら2人で1つでOK。味はまぁまぁそれなり。
日本のテーマパークの食事と同レベルです。

あとプログラムの写真が３枚40ドル。
１枚から変えますが、すごくよく撮れているのできっと3枚とも欲しくなります(笑)


目の前で大きなイルカたちがかわいい姿を見せてくれて感動。
小さな子どもからおじいちゃんおばあちゃんまで楽しめます。
おすすめですよー！！

We participated with two adults and two children (ages 7 and 5) in late June. Unfortunately, the weather was rainy and then cloudy, making it quite chilly.

The scale of the place is enormous, and there were so many attractions that we were unsure where to start.

We first tried a slide that the whole family could ride together. Although the younger child was slightly below the height requirement, this is America! They let us slide as a family!

The older child's favorite was the Island Racer, where you lie on your stomach and slide down headfirst. It was incredibly fast and thrilling. The older child went down multiple times, but I was satisfied with just one ride...

The Volcano offers a unique sliding experience that even the fearless older child found surprising!

There are also pools where small children can have fun, so if you want to spend the whole day leisurely playing in the pool, I highly recommend it! You can enjoy pool activities on a scale that exceeds your imagination, something you can't experience in Japan!

6月下旬大人2名、子供2名(7歳5歳)で参加しました。
天気は残念ながら雨のち曇りで寒いくらいの気候でした。 

とにかくスケールが大きくて、何から乗ろうかと迷うくらい種類も豊富でした。

最初は親子4人で乗るスライダーに挑戦しました。若干下の子の身長が足りなかったのですが、そこはアメリカ！大目に見てもらい家族で乗ることができました！

上のこのお気に入りは単身で腹這いになって頭からすべるアイランドレーサー。これはめちゃめちゃスピードが出て迫力満点でした。上の子は何回も滑ってましたが、私は一回で満足でした…

奇想天外の滑り方が体験できるのはボルケーノ。これは怖いもの知らずの上の子もビックリしてました！

小さな子供達も楽しめるプールもあるので一日中ゆっくりプール遊びをしたいなら本当にオススメです！
想像以上にスケールが大きく日本では体験した事のないプール遊びができますよ！

I read alot of reviews prior to booking, and this excursion sounded the best...and in my opinion it is! The crew were wonderful - very knowledgable, friendly and helpful. I felt in capable hands the whole time, having never snorkelled with dolphins before. It was awesome, and we weren't rushed at all. I am looking forward to getting the professional photos from Ali. I have wonderful memories of this day and will definitely recommend this experience to others. I am sure that if I return to Oahu, I will definitely do this trip again!
