Oahu
We participated as a couple. On this day, besides us, there was an Italian family and two American couples.
One of the crew members, who could speak Japanese, talked to us. They had lived in Japan and knew a lot about the area where we live, so we had a fun conversation mixing English and Japanese, which is a nice memory.
Unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, and we could only see a little bit of the sunset through the gaps. It was a bit disappointing, but seeing Waikiki and Diamond Head from the ocean was lovely.
Since it was a small boat, it rocked quite a bit. We didn't take any motion sickness medication, but I was concerned about getting seasick and didn't feel like eating or drinking much. However, the foreigners were drinking and eating a lot. If you're worried, it might be a good idea to take motion sickness medication.
Also, while the wind feels nice, it might be a bit cold for women. I think it would be good to have something to cover up with.
夫婦で参加しました。
この日は私達以外に、イタリア人家族と二組のアメリカ人夫婦が参加されていました。
クルーで、日本語を話せる方が話しかけてくれたのですが、
日本に住まれていたとかで(私達が住んでいる所も詳しくて)
英語日本語混ぜながら、楽しく会話出来たのも良い思い出です。
あいにくの曇り空でサンセットは隙間から少し見えたくらい。
ちょっと残念でしたが、沖からみるワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドも素敵でした~
小型の船なので、結構揺れます。
私達は酔い止め飲まなかったのですが、船酔いが気になって
あまり飲食する気になれず…。
外国の方は、ガンガンお酒飲んで食べまくってましたけど。
不安な方は、酔い止め飲んでおかれた方がよいかも。
あと、風が気持ち良いですが、女性には少し寒いかも。
羽織るもの、あるとよいと思います。
I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be quite an interesting experience. The pier was bright white and stood out beautifully against the blue sea. From here, we took a boat out to board the submarine, and that was quite enjoyable. Perhaps because of the strong winds, the boat was rocking so much that I could hardly stand without holding on to something. You can also see the submarine rising and sinking from the boat! The view from the submarine was decent, but it was fun as an attraction! My elderly grandmother also enjoyed it.
あまり期待していなかったのですが、なかなか面白い体験でした。
桟橋が真っ白で青い海に映えて、とてもきれいでした。ここから潜水艦に乗り込むために船で沖に出るのですが、これが結構楽しめました。風が強かったせいか、ゆれがものすごくて何かにつかまっていないと立っていられないほどでした。船からは潜水艦が浮き出る様子や沈んでいく様子も見ることができます!
潜水艦からの景色はそこそこですが、アトラクションとしては楽しかったです!高齢の祖母も喜んでくれました。
I signed up for the early morning plan. I was finally able to go to the sandbar that I had always wanted to visit with my husband and my 2-year-old daughter. The weather in Waikiki during pickup was sunny! I thought this was going to be the best tour, but as we headed towards Kaneohe, thick clouds quickly covered the sky. My mood dropped, but our energetic guide Yukiko cheered me up, reminding me that such days happen. We boarded the boat and set off on the cruise. We took photos with Chinaman's Hat and the Ko'olau Mountains in the background, and we were able to spot many sea turtles at the turtle spot. Just as Yukiko announced, "We're almost at the sandbar!" I suddenly noticed that the thick clouds had disappeared, and it was completely sunny with the sparkling sandbar in sight. I was so excited that I was jumping around more than my child (laughs).
Since it was close to low tide, the water was only about ankle-deep, which was perfect for my child to splash around and play. We were able to spend an unforgettable time as a family. The local staff were friendly and great, and even though it was a 2-hour cruise, it was very fulfilling. We returned to Waikiki in time for my daughter's nap, so I think this plan is highly recommended for families with small children! I wasn't able to take good photos when it was sunny, so I plan to join again next time I go to Hawaii for a little revenge (laughs)!
早朝プランに申し込みました。2歳の娘と主人と3人でずっと行きたかった念願のサンドバーに行くことができました。
ピックアップしていただいたワイキキは晴天!これは最高のツアーになるな、と思っていたのもつかの-間バスでカネオヘに向かう山に入る間にみるみる厚い雲に覆われていきました。すっかり気分は落ち込んだのですが、元気印のようなガイドのユキコさんから元気をもらってそんな日もあるかと気を取り直してボートに乗り込みいざクルーズへ。チャイナマンズハットやコオラウ山脈をバックに写真撮影をしてもらい、ウミガメスポットでたくさんのウミガメを発見できました。もうすぐサンドバーでーす!のユキコさんの案内でふと見ると厚い雲はどこへやら、すっかり晴天になりキラキラ輝くサンドバーがあるではありませんか。感激して子供以上にはしゃいでしまいました(笑)
干潮に近い時間だったので水深も足首くらいだったのでちょうど子供がぱしゃぱしゃ遊ぶことができ、家族で忘れられない時間を過ごすことができました。
ローカルのスタッフもフレンドリーでいい感じで、2時間のクルーズでしたがとっても充実していました。お昼にはワイキキに戻れるので娘のお昼寝にも間に合ったし小さい子供連れにもおすすめできるプランだと思います!
晴れているときの写真がうまく撮れなかったのでリベンジもかねて(笑)また次ハワイに行く時も絶対参加します!!
At 9 AM, the shuttle bus for Wet 'n Wild picked us up from the hotel. During this time, they wrapped our passports around our wrists. Inside the bus, there were no videos playing, but there was an audio guide in Japanese about the facilities. Once we arrived at the site, there was no further guidance, so I think it's better to listen carefully.
We arrived at the location a little after 10 AM. Since it opened at 10:30, we had to wait for a while. After it opened, we stored our belongings in a locker. There are both large and small lockers available. In addition to the locker fee, you need to pay a $5 deposit. The deposit can be refunded when you show the receipt from when you paid for the locker at the time of key return, so be careful not to lose it.
All the activities were fun. The slides, in particular, were thrilling and unlike anything in Japan, and I found myself screaming after a long time. The Shaka slide was especially entertaining. However, not all activities were open at the same time; they seemed to operate on a rotation, so sometimes when I wanted to go to the next one, it was closed, which felt a bit like a waste of time.
For lunch, I had fast food, which was delicious. During peak times, there can be quite a line. I ate at a staggered time, so I was able to avoid waiting.
If I have the chance, I would like to go again.
ホテルへ9時にウエット&ワイルドの送迎バスが迎えにきてくれました。
その際、腕にパスポートを巻いてくれます。
バス車内ではパンフレットを見ながら映像は流れませんが、日本語で施設の音声案内がありました。
現地に着いてからは案内が無い為、聞いていた方がいいと思います。
バス車内は冷房が効いており、寒く感じるかもしれません。
現地に到着したのが10時過ぎ。
10時半オープンの為、しばらく待ちました。
オープン後は荷物をロッカーに預けました。ロッカーのサイズは大と小があります。ロッカー代とは別に5ドルの保証金を払います。保証金はロッカー代を支払った際のレシートを鍵返却時に見せれば戻ってきますので、なくさない様に注意した方がいいです。
アクティビティはどれも楽しかったです。
特にスライダー系は日本にはない、スリル満点な物ばかりで、久しぶりに叫びました。
特に、シャカがおもしろかったです。
ただ、全部のアクティビティがオープンしているわけではなく、交代制になっているようで、次に行こうと思っていると閉まっていたりで、時間が少し勿体無い感じもしました。
お昼はファストフードを食べましたが、美味しかったです。
ピークの時間は結構並びます。時間をずらして食べたので、並ばずに済みました。
機会があれば、また行きたいです。
We received comments about the rotation of attractions, which made it difficult to participate as desired. We are very sorry to hear that. Currently, on Alan1.net, we are sharing tips, including information about attraction rotations, under the overview of the activities page titled "Enjoy the park 10 times more! Exclusive information from Alan1.net!" We hope you find it helpful for your next visit.
アトラクションにローテーションがあり、思うように参加できなかったとのコメント。とても残念でございます。現在Alan1.netでは、アクティビティページ概要内で「パークを10倍楽しむ!Alan1.net ここだけ情報!」として、アトラクションのローテーション情報など攻略ポイントを公開中です。次回お越しの際にご参考にしていただけると幸いです。
I love snorkeling. The scenery is beautiful, so I recommend going at least once.
シュノーケル大好きです。景色が綺麗なので、1度は行ってみることお勧めです。
I chose to participate on the day with the lowest tide during my stay. The timing was close to low tide for this tour, so I joined. On this day, there were two buses filled with only Japanese participants. However, the staff handled everything efficiently, so the movement was smooth.
After everyone saw the honu (sea turtles), we headed to the sandbar. The wind was strong, and the water was cold!! Everyone was shivering. But I was so happy to see the sandbar, which I had been looking forward to the most since before the trip.
It was my first experience with snorkeling, but the staff's explanations were easy to understand, so I could see well underwater! However, I realized that you can't snorkel if you can't swim... Still, I was satisfied to have experienced it a little.
After getting back on the boat, I enjoyed the sandwiches and tea that were prepared. Since I was cold, the food was a welcome treat!
On the day I participated, most of the attendees were couples, but there were also families and groups of friends who seemed to be having a great time.
滞在中でいちばん干潮になる日を選んで参加しました。時間帯が、こちらのツアーが干潮時に近かったので参加しました。 この日は日本人だけでバス2台でした。でもスタッフの方が手際よく対応されていたので移動などはスムーズでした。
みんなでホヌ(ウミガメ)を見たあとはサンドバーへ。風が強く、海の中は寒かった!!みんな震えてました。でも旅行前から一番楽しみにしていたサンドバーが見れてうれしかったです。
私はシュノーケル初体験でしたが、スタッフの方の説明がわかりやすかったので、ちゃんと海の中が見えました!でも泳げないとシュノーケルってできないんですね…。それでも少し体験できて満足です。
船にあがった後は、準備されているサンドイッチと紅茶をいただきました。身体が冷えていたので、食べ物うれしい!
私が参加した日は参加者はほぼカップルでしたが、家族連れの方や友達同士で参加の方も楽しそうでした★
This tour truly felt like a power spot, and I received so much energy from it. The staff were all very kind, and I definitely want to recommend it. Next time, I would like to join the BBQ tour!
このツアーはまさにパワースポットって感じなくらいパワーもらえました。
スタッフは皆さんとても親切ですし、絶対おススメしたい。
この次は、BBQのツアーに参加してみたいです☆
We left the hotel at 5:40 AM on the day of our return flight, which was tough, but I was thrilled to see many dolphins and sea turtles up close in the beautiful ocean, which lifted my spirits. I took motion sickness pills, so I didn't feel nauseous at all. However, there was someone who felt sick and ended up vomiting. On the bus, they were selling bracelets that stimulate pressure points to prevent motion sickness for about $20 each. They kindly emailed us two group photos as a complimentary service, and other photos were available for purchase on DVD for an additional fee.
The seawater was cold, and when it was cloudy, the wind was chilly, so it's better to rent a wetsuit. They also lend out blankets, but there are only a few, so it's a good idea to bring a larger towel for warmth.
All the staff were bright, cheerful, and kind. Besides the male hula dance and singing, I was able to do hula dancing myself, which was satisfying. For lunch, we had a cheeseburger, a slice of pineapple, and taro chips, along with some tea. The taro chips were unique and interesting. It would be nice if they offered a vegetarian burger like other companies do.
There is a restroom on the boat, but it would be even better if there were a shower as well. We arrived at the hotel just before 1 PM, and since check-out was at 12 PM, I had to change and wipe down in the hotel restroom without being able to shower before returning to Japan. Due to scheduling, I could only book this tour on the last day, so it couldn't be helped. However, I was very satisfied to encounter a large pod of dolphins and swim close to them. I've participated in dolphin watching cruises in the Maldives, but now just seeing them from the boat isn't enough for me (laughs). I want to go to Hawaii again and swim with the dolphins! 😊
早朝5時40分ホテル出発で、帰国日に予約したのでハードでしたが、綺麗な海で沢山のイルカとウミガメを近くで見られて感激し、元気になりました。
酔い止めを飲んでたので、全然酔いませんでした。
気持ち悪くなり吐いてしまった人がいました。
バスの中で、たしか1本20ドルで酔わなくなるツボを刺激するブレスレットを販売してました。集合写真を2枚サービスでメールで送信してくれて、その他の写真はDVDで別料金で販売してました。
海水は冷たく、曇ってると風が冷たいので、ウェットスーツは借りた方が良いです。毛布も貸してくれますが数が少ないので、防寒用に大きめのタオル等も持っていくと良いですね。
スタッフさんは全員明るく陽気で親切でした。
男性フラのダンスと歌の他に自分でフラダンスも出来たし、満足です。
ランチは、チーズバーガーとパイナップル1切れとタロイモチップスで、お茶もくれました。タロイモチップスは珍しいので面白かったです。他社のように、ベジタリアン用のハンバーガーもあると良いな。
トイレは船についてるけど、シャワーも付いてれば尚良いですね。ホテルに着いたのが13時ちょっと前で、ホテルのチェックアウトが12時だったので、シャワーを浴びれないままホテルのトイレで着替えて体を拭いて、日本に帰国しました。。
日程の都合で、最終日のこのツアーしか申し込めなかったので、仕方ないんですけどね。
だけど、すぐにイルカの沢山の群れと遭遇して、近くで泳ぐことが出来て、大満足でした。
モルディブでイルカウォッチングクルーズは参加したことありますが、もう船の上から見るだけじゃ満足できなくなりました(笑)
またハワイに行って、イルカと泳ぎたいです^^
I have visited Hawaii before, but I had never participated in an activity swimming with wild dolphins.
This time, I chose this highly-rated option because I was traveling with a friend who was visiting Hawaii for the first time.
On this day, we were able to see many dolphins for a long time, and a sea turtle swam right by us. My friends and I were all extremely excited!!
Having light snacks included was also nice. We were able to create memories that were worth more than the price.
I definitely recommend it.
今までにもハワイを訪れたことはありますが、野生のイルカと泳ぐアクティビティーには参加した事がありませんでした。
今回初ハワイの友人を連れての旅行なので、評判の良いこちらを選びました。
この日はたくさんのイルカ達に、しかも長い時間逢うことが出来、海亀もすぐ近くを泳いでいってくれました。
私も友人たちも皆大興奮!!
軽食つきなのもいいですね。
お値段以上の想い出を貰うことが出来ました。
間違いなくオススメです。
The pickup was the very first thing. We visited several hotels and got on the highway, taking just under an hour for a restroom break (I’m not sure of the exact location, but it was very close to Heia Boat Harbor).
We joined up with another bus and boarded the boat.
The weather was fantastic and calm, which was great, but unfortunately, we didn’t encounter any natural turtles. We all looked for them, but we didn’t find any. However, we did see a turtle at the sandbar. It was very friendly and would come close when we approached, but the guide warned us that if we put our hands down, it might bite, so we ran away with the kids (laughs).
The sandbar was unfortunately only about knee-deep, but it was very beautiful. It was a bit cold, probably because it was mid-May. Everyone was saying it was cold and seemed to be splashing around in the sea like they were in a bath. Plus, we had to walk from where the boat could go to the shallow area, and there were surprisingly many rocks and stones, so I had to carry my child because their feet hurt.
I also participated in snorkeling, but it was in a pretty deep area where I couldn’t reach the bottom, so I went alone, leaving my family behind. There were a lot of fish, but it was too deep to see the corals up close. It was just a back-and-forth splash, and honestly, it was boring. It would have been fun if there was a circular course to explore...
The barbecue was really delicious. Also, the donuts we had before going into the sea were hot and amazing.
On the way back, the bus had towels laid out and the air conditioning was turned off. It was very kind of them to allow us to stay wet. Everyone was exhausted, so we arrived quickly.
All the staff were cheerful and it was fun. It was reassuring to be surrounded by Japanese people.
I definitely want to participate again next time. Hopefully, during a warmer season...
ピックアップは一番最初でした。数ヶ所ホテルをまわり高速に乗って1時間弱でトイレ休憩(場所はわかりませんが、へエイア・ボート・ハーバーのすぐ近くでした)
他のバスと合流して、ボートに乗りました。
とても天気がよく穏やかな日で最高でしたが、残念ながら天然のカメさんには出会えませんでした。みんなで探したのですが出会えませんでした。サンドバーにいたカメさんには出会えました。すごく人になついていて近くに行くと寄ってきますが、手を下にするとかまれるよってガイドさんに言われたので子供と逃げました(笑)
サンドバーは残念ながら膝下くらいでしたが、とてもキレイでした。ただ5月中旬だったからか寒かったです。みんな寒い寒いってお風呂に入っているみたいに海につかっていました。しかも船がいける所から浅瀬まで歩くのですが、意外と岩や石が多く、子供は足が痛いって抱っこして行きました。
シュノーケリングにも参加しましたが、足が届かないかなり深い場所だったので家族をおいて1人で参加。お魚はたくさんいたのですがあまりにも深い場所でサンゴが近くでは見れませんでした。しかもただバシャバシャ行って帰ってくるだけの往復。正直、つまらなかったです。ぐるっと回るような周回コースがあれば楽しいのに・・・。
バーベキューはとってもおいしかったです。あと海に入る前にいただいたドーナツもアツアツで最高でした。
帰りのバスにはちゃんとタオルも敷いてあって冷房も切ってありました。濡れたままでOKでとても親切。みんなぐったりしてたのですぐにつきました。
スタッフの人達はみな明るくて楽しかったです。
日本人ばかりで安心です。
次回も是非参加したいです。今度は暖かい時に・・・。
Must see attraction
I had another commitment, so my husband and children attended Sea Life Park without me.
Kissing a dolphin is something you can't experience in Japan. It was such a great experience.
They seemed to really enjoy the dolphin show, and when they came back, they talked a lot about it.
私は別の用事があったため、シーライフパークには主人と子供たちでの参加でした。
イルカとのキス、日本では経験できない事。とってもいい体験になりました。
イルカショー とても楽しかったみたいで帰って来たらいっぱい話しをしてくれました。
I went on May 14th with my children, who are in the first and third grades. Since it was our first trip to Hawaii, I wanted to create fun memories for the kids, so I chose a course that included a barbecue and unlimited soft drinks.
We were picked up from the hotel and visited several hotels, arriving at the park just after 10 AM. We had to wait at the entrance for a while because we could only enter from 10:30 AM.
Although we had a limited time from 10:30 AM to 3 PM, both the kids and adults had a great time, but we still felt that the time was not enough.
Once we entered the park, we changed clothes, played, and had lunch, and the time really flew by. We even talked as a family about wanting to come back while we were playing.
Walking barefoot in the park under the strong Hawaiian sun was tough. It felt like my soles might get burned, so next time I want to wear something like beach shoes.
Also, I want to rent a car next time so we can play until closing time.
Although it was called a lunch barbecue, what was provided was a lunch box with a grilled meat bento, salad, and fruit. They said it was all-you-can-eat, but we couldn't eat that much... However, my fruit-loving kids went back for seconds.
5/14に行きました。小学1年、3年の子供と一緒にでした。初めてのハワイ旅行だったので、子供たちに楽しい思い出を残してあげたかったのでバーベキューとソフトドリンク飲み放題付きのコースにしました。
ホテルにピックアップに来てもらって、いくつかのホテルを回り、パークに付いたのは10時過ぎ。10時30分からしか入れないとの事でしばらく入り口で待たされました。
10時30分~15時までと限られた時間の中、子供も大人も凄く楽しめましたが、やっぱり時間が足らないと感じました。
パーク内に入り、着替えをして遊んで、ランチを食べて、本当にあっという間に時間が過ぎてしまいました。遊びながらまた来たいねと家族で話すほど。
ハワイの強い日差しの中、素足でパーク内を歩くのはヤバかった。足の裏がやけどしてしまいそうだったので、次回行くときは、ビーチシューズみたいのを履いて歩きたいと思います。
それから、次回は営業時間いっぱいに遊びたいのでレンタカーを借りて行きたいな。
ランチバーベキューとあったけど、提供されたのはランチボックスに入った焼き肉弁当、サラダ、フルーツでした。こちらが食べ放題とのことだっったけど、そんなに食べられない・・・ただフルーツLOVEな子供たちはおかわりしてました。
Truly enjoyed the boat ride out and the associated views. The sub was great. Clear water, tons of fish, turtles and two sharks...would do this again in a heartbeat.
From March 17 to March 21, I went to Hawaii with my family. We booked a tour to swim with dolphins as the main event!
Even though the weather wasn't very good on the day, we were able to swim with the dolphins (they weren't exactly within arm's reach, though...) and we got to see rays up close. Most importantly, the photographer was very dedicated and tried his best to take us close to the dolphins, which we really appreciated.
On top of that, even though I mistakenly mixed up the dates due to the time difference between Japan and the local time and showed up a day late, they kindly allowed me to participate. It was truly a great tour!
3/17~3/21まで家族でHAWAIIに行きました。
メインイベントとしてイルカと泳ぐツア−を予約!
当日お天気はあまり良くなかったのに、しっかりイルカと
泳げたし(手の届くほど近くといいうワケではなかったけ れど…)エイも近くで見れたし、何よりカメラマンさんが
一生縣命イルカの側に連れて行ってくれようとしてくれて
有難かったです。
おまけに、日本時間と現地時間を間違えて参加日を一日間違 えてたにも関わらず、快く参加させてもらえ
ほんと 良いツア−でした!
Hi - I would highly recommend the lei greeting. This was for our 1st time to Hawaii and we were getting married in Ohau. I wanted to surprise my bride to be with a lei greeting. The lei's were absolutely beautiful and was the best lei we got in Hawaii. Great value for the quality of the flowers....
I really enjoyed receiving my Lei at th Honolulu Airport. My greeter was there waiting for me with a big smile. She made sure to ask my plans as far as lodging and transportation to make sure I made it to my destination. It was well worth it.
Thanks to the very friendly staff, I was able to enjoy myself despite the unfortunate weather.
However, it was a bit disappointing as it was somewhat different from the image of a sandy beach. It is quite affected by the weather and the tides, so I might need to try a few times.
If I have the chance again, I would like to go back.
とても楽しいスタッフさんのおかげで、あいにくの天気でしたが、なんとか楽しむことができました。
ただ、サンドビーチのイメージとはちょっと違っていたのが残念でした。
天候と海の満ち引きの時間にかなり影響されるので、何度かチャレンジしないとかもしれません。
また機会があれば、行きたいです。
I immediately recognized the large bus marked "Wet n Wild." The driver was a foreigner, but the guide was Japanese, and I quickly received a wristband that served as my ticket before boarding the bus.
Inside the bus, there was a monitor, and I thought they would show videos of the park, but it only provided audio explanations. That was a bit disappointing. Since I had some free time, I looked at the pamphlet I received. The bus stopped at about five hotels and took about an hour to reach our destination. However, there was no explanation that the park opened at 10:30, so we arrived at 10:00 and ended up waiting in the blazing sun for about 30 minutes without knowing what was going on. (During that time, I applied sunscreen.)
Additionally, I heard from the guide that no food or drinks could be brought into the park, so I threw away two half-finished plastic bottles in the trash at the entrance. However, the guide who checked our bags only glanced at them briefly. (That felt a bit wasteful.)
The park was very large, but since there were children with us, the activities were somewhat limited. So, we mostly played (taking turns as a couple). There was a long slide suitable for kids, and there were water guns, and if you let your guard down, water would splash down on you, which was a lot of fun. We played together with other children.
For lunch, there was only one place to eat. Moreover, there was no Japanese menu, so we ordered by looking at pictures. I wasn't sure what the rolled item was, but it turned out to be slightly spicy potatoes. It was quite tasty. Just keep in mind that only cash is accepted, so it might be a good idea to bring a little extra.
Since my child is small, I needed towels and tissues for wiping noses, so I didn't leave my bag in a locker. I placed my belongings on a chair while we played, but there were staff members around, so nothing happened. In the lazy river, we borrowed floaties and swam together, and our belongings were safe.
For the return trip, we had to gather at the bus by 3:15, so the time really flew by. After eating and playing a bit, it was already 3:00. If you want to do more, you might need to manage your time carefully. Since you also need to account for the time to return to the hotel, it can't be helped, but I wish they would stay open a little longer (the park closes at 4:30).
The return bus had air conditioning, so...
ウエットアンドワイルドと書かれた大きなバスでピックアップすぐにわかりました。
ドライバーさんは外人さんでしたがガイドさんが日本人の方で、すぐにチケットとなるリストバンドを手首にしてバスに乗りました。
バスの中にはモニターがあって園内の映像でも流れるのかと思ったらただ音声での説明だけ。ちょっと残念。暇だったのでもらったパンフレットを見てました。
バスは5件くらいホテルをまわり高速に乗って1時間くらいでつきました。
でもオープンが10時半からと説明もなかったので10時に着いてわけもわからず30分くらい炎天下で並んでいました。(その間に日焼け止めを塗りましたが)
また、園内には飲み物や食べ物は一切持ち込めないとガイドさんから聞いていたので、飲みかけのペットボトル2本を入口のゴミ箱に捨てました。でも見に来たのはさっきのガイドさんで、しかもさらっとしかバックを見なかったです。(ちょっともったいなかった)
園内はとても広かったですが子供もいたので遊べる物は限られていました。なのであまり他のことはしないで(夫婦交代交代で)遊びました。でも子供にしては長いすべり台もあるし水が出る鉄砲みたいなのはあるし、気を抜いていると貯まった水がジャーっとかかるしと、とっても楽しかったです。他の子供と一緒になって遊んでいました。
お昼は食べるところが1箇所しかないです。しかも日本語メニューはないので絵でみて注文しました。クルクルしたものがなんなのかわからなかったのですが、ちょっと辛いポテトでした。普通においしかったです。ただ全て現金しか使えないので少し多めに持って行った方がいいかも。
子供も小さいのでタオルや鼻水を拭くティッシュが必要だったのでバックはロッカーには預けませんでした。イスに荷物を置いて遊んでいましたがあちらこちらにスタッフがいるので何事もありませんでした。
流れるプールでは浮き輪を借りてみんなで泳ぎましたが荷物も無事でした。
帰りは3時15分にバスに集合だったので、ホントにあっという間です。ご飯を食べてちょっと遊んで着替えるとすぐに3時です。他にもあれこれ乗りたいなら時間配分が必要かも。ホテルに帰る時間も必要だからしょうがないけど、もう少し遅くまでやっていればなーと思います(園内は4時半で終わり)
帰りのバスはクーラーが効いているので
The space between the tables was narrow, making it difficult to eat comfortably. However, the taste was excellent, especially the pasta, which was exquisite.
テーブル間が狭くて、落ち着いて食べれなかった。しかし、味は最高で、特にパスタが絶品でした。
I participated with my elementary school son. He said it was the most fun he had on our trip to Hawaii (laughs).
小学生の息子と参加しました。
ハワイ旅行で一番楽しかったと息子は言ってました(笑)
After several trips to Oahu and never having the opportunity to hike Makapu'u since I don't rent a car and the nearest bus stop is over a mile from the trailhead, I was happy to see Kaimana Tours offering transportation from Waikiki hotels to the trailhead.
As the only person taking the tour that day, I was put on a shuttle with a group headed to Hanauma Bay. Pickup from my hotel was prompt, the driver was both professional and entertaining, and pickup from the trailhead was efficient (all I had to do was call the office when I finished the hike, and the driver was there within 10-15 mins)!
As for the hike itself, it is actually a walk on a paved, slightly inclined one mile-ish road. The sights were beautiful all the way to the top, and people of all activity levels should be able to handle this without any issues.
All-in-all, Kaimana Tours delivered an A+++ experience, and I hope to partake in their other tour offerings the next time I'm in Oahu!
It was a somewhat cloudy day, but the clear sea was really nice. The staff members were friendly and approachable.
当日は少し曇りがちな日、でも、透明度の高い海はとっても良かったです。スタッフの方々もフレンドリーで親しみやすかったです。
After the New Year, I went on my honeymoon. I wanted to enjoy the ocean in Hawaii, so I joined this tour.
The breathtakingly clear sea, coral reefs, tropical fish... and sea turtles.
I was able to encounter various creatures living in the ocean.
The guide was efficient and provided detailed and enjoyable explanations.
It became a very memorable tour.
Since you can take photos, a waterproof camera is an essential item!
正月明けに、新婚旅行で行きました。ハワイの海を楽しみたく、このツアーに参加。
息を飲むような透明度の高い海、珊瑚礁、熱帯魚…そしてウミガメ
海に棲む様々な生き物たちに出会えました。
ガイドさんは手際もよく詳しく楽しい説明をしてくださいました。
とても思い出に残るツアーとなりました。
写真も撮れるので、防水機能付きのカメラは必須アイテムです!
The day I participated, it was very windy, so we traveled by boat to the area with the submarine. If you get seasick, be sure to take medication! Once we dove, there was no movement at all, and it was super exciting and thrilling. Luckily, we were able to see turtles and sharks too! The scenery was amazing! The pier where the boat departs and the views during the trip were also fantastic, especially since the weather was great.
参加した日は風が強かったので・・・潜水艦のある沖合までは船での移動。船に酔う方は薬を必ず!
潜ってしまうと全く揺れずめっちゃワクワク・ドキドキでした。運もよく、カメやサメも見ることが出来たので!
また景色がすごくいい!船が出港する桟橋も・・・移動中も・・・天気が良かったせいもあり最高でした。
The blue sky, white clouds, and green sea! Boarding the submarine waiting off the coast of Waikiki, we dove down to a depth of 30 meters. The view from the large window, experienced only by those who have gone, is unforgettable! The sight of beautiful fish and swimming sea turtles, along with fish that make sunken ships their home, was explained perfectly by the Japanese guide. It was truly wonderful! (#^.^#)
青い空に白い雲、そして緑の海!
ワイキキの沖で待つ潜水艦に乗り込み、水深30mまで潜り、一人でひとつの大きな窓からの眺めは、行ったものしかわからない!綺麗な魚やウミガメの泳ぐ姿、沈んだ船を住処にする魚たち、日本語ガイドで、説明もバッチリいや~良かったです(#^.^#)
Looking out at the sea from the submarine feels quite similar to an aquarium, but there's a sense of freedom with the fish swimming in various directions, and the excitement of not knowing what creatures you might see. I think it's definitely enjoyable. When I participated, I was able to see sharks and the sight of sea turtles swimming (though they usually tend to stay still). I do wish the travel time and the time for boarding and disembarking from the submarine were a bit shorter, but there's not much that can be done about that. I think it's best to join the experience with a relaxed mindset, enjoying the cruising as well.
潜水艦の窓から海を見た感じは水族館とあまり変わらない気もしますが、魚の泳ぐ方向が一定でなく自由な感じだったり、どんな生き物が見られるかわからないワクワク感があったり、十分楽しめると思います。
私が参加したときは、サメが見られたり、ウミガメが泳ぐ姿が見られたり(普段はじっとしていることが多いそうですが)しました。
あとはもう少し移動時間や潜水艦への乗降時間が短いといいな、と思いますが、こればっかりは仕方ないですね。クルージングも楽しむつもりでのんびり参加すればいいと思います。
By far the best Luau in Oahu. 'Chief' is on to a winner with his Luau. He entertains you from the start to the end of the evening with his brilliant comedy skills, his drumming, singing and, of course, his fire dance which is sensational. There is a lot of audience participation, the food is excellent and it all adds up to the most magical evening. 'Chief' has an excellent team with him and I would highly recommend this Luau to anyone.
I rode a boat for the first time in Hawaii. I saw mother and baby whales a few times, but it was just for a moment. I enjoyed the scenery from the boat, and the breeze felt nice, so I'm glad I participated.
The inside of the boat was too cold due to the air conditioning. I wished I had brought a jacket.
ハワイに来て初めて船に乗りました。親子のクジラ何度か見えました。一瞬でした。船から景色も楽しめて風も気持ち良くて参加して良かったです。
船内はク−ラ−がききすぎて寒かったです。上着を持っていけば良かったなぁと思いました。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise this time.
During this season's cruise, we were able to see mother and baby whales quite often.
The sight of them swimming together is truly adorable.
We are very pleased that you were able to catch a glimpse of them, even for a moment.
Many restaurants and buses in Hawaii tend to be overly air-conditioned, so I think it would be a good idea to carry something to wear over your clothes.
All of our staff sincerely look forward to your next visit.

この度は私共のクルーズにご参加頂き、誠に有難うございました。
今シーズンのクルーズでは鯨の親子を良く見る事ができました。
親子で泳いでいる姿は本当に可愛いですよね。
お客様にもその姿を一瞬でもご覧いただけて、大変嬉しく思います。
ハワイのレストランやバスはとてもクーラーがききすぎている所が多いので、上に羽織るものを持ち歩くと良いと思います。
皆様の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。

My daughter wanted to go snorkeling on her graduation trip with five friends, so we signed up. After returning home, her feedback was that everything was fantastic. The activities at the sandbar, the time management, and the meals were all plentiful and delicious. The captain who cooked for us was also a wonderful person, and the staff seemed very kind. They even got to see sea turtles, which was truly moving! Overall, we were extremely satisfied, and we would love to participate again the next time we visit Hawaii.
娘が友達5人での卒業旅行でシュノーケリングがしたいというので申し込みしました。帰国後の感想は、すべてに於いて最高のようでした。サンドバーでのアクティビティ、時間配分、食事もボリュウム満点でとても美味しく、調理してくれたキャプテンも素敵な方・・スタッフも親切だったようです。ウミガメにも本当に会えて感動!とにかく大満足で次回渡ハするときはまた参加したいですね。
