Oahu
Although a very long day on the bus and limited stops due to narrow roads and busy traffic, when we were able to stop at certain locations it was absolutely breathtaking.
To really take in the full affect of the drop and photos over the cliff, I would suggest sitting on the left side of the bus if you’re able. Make sure you have a strong stomach, aren’t afraid of heights and able to withstand the winding roads, the photos you capture on this trip are well worth the adventure
I was anxious because I'm not good at English, but it was fine since they spoke to me in broken Japanese! They had consent forms and instructions available in Japanese, so I think it's totally okay even if you can't speak any English. I went flying with my 67-year-old mother at 120 meters, and she was thrilled because it wasn't scary and was just the right height. However, the boat swayed quite a bit! I tend to get motion sickness, so even after taking motion sickness medication, I felt nauseous by the end. If you're prone to motion sickness, definitely take strong medication! They asked each group, "Do you want to take photos?" with a telephoto camera, so if you say no, you won't be photographed. It seemed like you could buy the photos on the way back if you asked. It was written that you could choose whether to land in the water or not, but no one was asked, and everyone landed in the water, which was a bit disappointing. It felt uncomfortable to get into the car while still wet. At the end, they said, "If you had a good time, please give a tip," so everyone was giving $20. I think it's good to prepare that in advance. Since it finishes in the morning, you have the whole afternoon free. The content and schedule were great!
英語が得意でないため不安でしたが、カタコトの日本語で話してくれるので大丈夫でした!同意書も説明書も日本語が用意されてるし、まったく英語を話せなくても大丈夫だと思います。67歳の母と120mで飛びましたが、怖くなく、ちょうどいい高さだと母も大喜びでした。ただ、船はかなり揺れます!私は酔いやすいので酔い止めを飲んでも最後は気持ち悪くなりました。酔いやすい方は必ず強力な酔い止めを!!望遠カメラを持って「写真ハ?トリマスカ?」と一組ずつ聞いてくれるので、ノーと言えば撮られません。お願いすれば、帰りに買うことができるようでした。着水するかどうかは選択できると書いてありましたが、聞かれることはなく、全員着水だったので、ちょっと残念でした。濡れたまま車に乗るのは気持ち悪かったです。最後は「ヨカッタ方はチップをお願イシマース」と言われますので、全員20ドル渡してました。用意しておいたほうがいいと思います。午前で終わるので午後は丸々空きます。内容もスケジュール的にもよかったです!!
We had an amazing time on our sunset cruise!! The crew was very accommodating and we appreciated the thoughtfulness to take care of our family as we are traveling with our 91 year old father. He had a wonderful time as well!!! Definitely will do it again! Loved the sunset!!
I signed up for this tour because I wanted to see the Hilton Hotel's fireworks from the sea. Not only did I enjoy the fireworks, but I also got to experience the sunset.
There was quite a bit of time between the meal and the fireworks, so I relaxed while drinking coffee.
The taste of the food was average, nothing special but not bad either.
ヒルトンホテルの花火を海上から見たくて、こちらのツアーに申し込みをしました。
花火だけでなく、サンセットも楽しめました。
食事をしてから花火までの間、けっこう時間があったので、コーヒーを飲みながらゆったりと過ごしました。
食事の味は、可もなく不可もなくといった感じでした。
アロハ!Veltraを通じてアトランティスアドベンチャーツアーをご予約いただきありがとうございます。
Aloha! Thank you for booking an Atlantis Adventures tour through Veltra.
We boarded the boat and set off.
The boat sways quite a bit when the waves are high, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're prone to getting seasick.
The sky was pleasant, and I enjoyed the scenery.
I was a bit scared and chose the 90-meter option, but I should have gone for the 150 meters.
ボートに乗り込み、出発しました。
波が高いとボートは結構ゆれるので、乗り物酔いしやすい方は酔い止めの薬を飲んでおく事をお勧めします。
上空は気持ちよく、景色も楽しめました。
怖いかなと思い、90メートルの選択をしましたが、150メートルにすればよかったです。
At first, I was anxious because there were no Japanese people around, but the staff explained things in Japanese here and there, which made me feel at ease. It was my first time parasailing, so I was quite nervous, but it was fun. I think those who are prone to motion sickness should take some anti-nausea medication. When I looked down from 120 meters, it was a bit scary, but looking far away, the view was amazing and felt great!
最初日本の方が1組もおられず不安でしたが、スタッフの方が所々日本語で説明して下さり安心しました。
パラセーリング自体は初めてだったので不安ばかりでしたが楽しかったです。酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだ方がいいと思いました。
120メートルにして、下を見たら少し怖かったですが遠くを見るとすごく眺めが良くて気持ちよかったです!
I participated with half expectations, thinking that I might not definitely see dolphins, but I was moved to encounter so many dolphins. I was able to see both dolphins and turtles, and I thoroughly enjoyed the clear sea. I highly recommend this tour.
必ずイルカに会えるというものではないと期待半分で参加しましたが、たくさんのイルカたちに出会えて感動しました。イルカもカメも見られ、透明な海を満喫できました。このツアーはおすすめです。
Aloha, Saki,
Thank you for participating in Dolphin University. We are all very happy that you were able to experience something unique to Hawaii. We look forward to the day we can meet again.
Dolphin Office
Aloha, Saki様
この度はイルカ大学にご参加くださり有り難うございました。
ハワイならではの経験をしていただけてスタッフ一同嬉しい限りです。
またお会いできる日を楽しみにしております。

Great tour, our driver ‘Captain Ron’ was great, very informative and someone who really loves his job! Pick up time was 07:30 so a bit later than other full day tours which we preferred too. Only issue was that we picked some people up from the airport coming from Maui who had missed their flight so had to wait for an hour, but Captain Ron kept us entertained and we still had plenty of time at each place.
Personally I loved the video and the boat trip around the Missouri but my husband loved the Aviation museum. Would definitely recommend this tour and plenty to see and do!
Parasailing lasts about 5 minutes. The view is amazing.
You will definitely get wet as you are dropped into the sea for photos. It's not scary.
If you're worried about seasickness, it's better to take medication.
I usually don't get seasick, but I felt completely nauseous.
It's fine while you're parasailing, but be careful as you might get seasick when other guests are parasailing.
There will be a camera shoot on the day. You can get around 70 photos for $30, and you'll also receive a 512MB SD card.
パラセーリングは約5分程度。景色最高。
写真撮影のために海に必ず落とされるので濡れる。怖くはない。
船酔いが心配な人は薬を服用した方がよい。
酔わない方だけど完璧に酔った。
パラセーリング中はよいが、ほかの客がパラセーリングしている時は船酔いする可能性があるので注意が必要。
当日カメラ撮影がある。$30で70枚弱撮ってもらえる。SDカード512mbごともらえる。
We were greeted as soon as we arrived and the lei is still looking well after a few days. Our greeter took pictures and it was a nice way to have anyone who visits Hawaii (especially for the first time). I was hoping for a fuller lei and I'm glad I got my friend the deluxe one since it I thought that it would have been fuller but the lei itself was not as full as I thought it would be. I would not be excited to see the less lei.
The greeter herself. was wonderful! She even offered us help with our bags and walked us to the baggage claim.
Aloha Diana! Thank you for taking the time to review your lei greeting! Your greeter, Marlyn, was happy to have assisted you and your friend. She did inform us of your dilemma, but I can confirm the Classic Orchid Lei was made as ordered. Hopefully the next time, we can provide you with the Deluxe Orchid Lei Greeting, or, we can also ship to lei nationwide. Please give us a call, and we will be more than happy to assist you! Have a wonderful vacation to the two of you!

I was picked up at the hotel on time, and after a quick check-in, we took a 10-minute boat ride to the jet ski location. After a brief explanation, I was able to ride at full speed and enjoy jet skiing to my heart's content while screaming with excitement. On the way back, I wanted to keep playing in the ocean, so I was dropped off at Waikiki Beach, which I really appreciated. I definitely want to join this tour again next time.
時間通りにホテルに迎えに来てもらえ、簡単な手続き後 ボートに10分くらい乗って ジェットスキーをする場所へ。
簡単な説明のあと、思う存分 フルスピードで走行し、絶叫を上げながら たっぷり ジェットスキーを楽しむことが出来ました。
帰りもこのまま、海で遊びたかったのでワイキキビーチのところでおろしてもらい、有り難かったです。
また次も是非 このツアーに参加したいと思います。
Thank you!
Mahalo!
In the end, I couldn't see anything at all, neither shadow nor figure. It seems like they tried their best, but... I received a ticket for the next boat ride, but since it was the last day of my trip, I couldn't use it. The boat was fairly large and not crowded, so I could go out on the deck or sit comfortably in a chair. It felt like a drive on the water in pleasant weather.
結局、何も影も姿も、見ることはできませんでした。
頑張ってくれたみたいですが・・。
次回乗船チケットをもらいましたが、旅行最終日だったので、使えませんでした。
船はそこそこ大きくて、満員でもないので、甲板に出たり、ゆったり椅子に座ったり。
気持ちのよい天気の中、船でドライブ、といった感じでした。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are very sorry to hear that you were unable to see any whales on the day of your participation.
If you have the opportunity, please come again.
All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

Amy was the perfect guide very knowledgeable and interesting so Kim and myself whould definitely recommend this tour
Avery big thank you to amy
The staff were very nice
Sand bar was beautiful but snorkel spot wasn’t clear water
After gathering at the harbor next to the Hilton, we set out to sea at full speed on a boat, and before we knew it, we were equipped and soaring into the sky. We had a 6-year-old child with us, but my wife and I were able to fly together with him. Up to a few meters high, the child was laughing, but as we rapidly ascended, his face stiffened and his voice trembled (laughs). We managed to encourage him (though we were scared too) and enjoyed the beautiful views of Honolulu. They take photos of you in the air, and you can purchase the SD card with those pictures. I think it was around $30. After the tour, they ask for tips. The atmosphere makes it hard to refuse, which raises some concerns. We reached 90 meters, which was quite a height. It became a wonderful memory.
ヒルトン横のハーバーに集合後、全速力のボートで沖に出て、あっという間に装置装着され、あっという間に大空に。
6歳の子連れでしたが、妻と合わせて3人で飛ぶことができました。
数mの高さまでは子供も笑っていましたが、そこから一気に上昇すると顔がこわばり声が震えてきました(笑)
なんとか励ましながら(こちらも怖かったのですが)ホノルルの美しい景色を眺めながら楽しむことができました。
空中の姿を写真に撮っていただけるので、そのSDカードは購入可能です。
確か30ドルだったかな。
ツアー終了後、チップをお願いされます。
断れない雰囲気になるので、それはいかがなものかと。
90mでしたが十分の高さでした。
いい思い出になりました。
Enjoyed the dinner buffet, would probably only recommend maybe a start time a little earlier like 3 p.m. This would allow everyone a chance to enjoy to cruise during daylight before the dinner start.
I was satisfied to learn about the history and connections through the dances of the Pacific Islands. The fire dance was truly impressive!
太平洋の島々の踊りを通じて、歴史、繋がりを知ることが出来て満足しました。ファイヤーダンスは見応え十分です!
On the second day in Hawaii, we received a call from the hotel that our plans were canceled due to a storm. We had the option to change our plans for the next day or get a refund, but I really wanted to participate in parasailing, which I was looking forward to the most, so I changed the schedule to the next day. Thank you for your quick response to the sudden change.
The weather forecast predicted thunderstorms, and I was half resigned to it, but the next day, to my surprise, it was clear skies! According to the bus driver, the captain of the boat that day was the number one captain! The weather was perfect! He said we were lucky (^ ^)♩
The tour guides only spoke English, but all five groups were Japanese couples, which made it comfortable. I had a great time chatting with a couple from Kansai, thank you! I hope the photos I took catch their eye (^ν^)☆
The scenery was beautiful, and I felt no fear at all. I even had the leisure to chat and take videos while flying! The driver called us a crazy couple… (laughs) I personally got a bit nauseous even after taking motion sickness medication, so it's essential to take it.
We tipped $20 for the two of us. I mentioned that we would buy the photos in advance, and it was $30 for 70 photos, paid by credit card for $35!
On the way back, we received flower hair clips and juice! Thank you to the cute and cheerful driver for the fun (^ ^)
This time we did 120 meters, but I want to challenge 150 meters next time! Thank you, Veltra, for your prompt response and the staff for creating wonderful memories! Sorry for the long message. (laughs)
ハワイに来て2日目、朝から暴風のため中止の電話がホテルに入りました。
次の日の変更、またはキャンセル返金と選べましたが一番に楽しみにしていたパラセーリングにどうしても参加したく、予定を変更し次の日にしてもらいました。急な変更にも迅速に対応して下さいましたありがとうございます。
天気予報では雷雨、半分なかば諦めていましたが次の日、起きてみてびっくり晴天!!
バスの運転手さんいわく今日の船の運転手さんはナンバーワンキャプテン!天気もパーフェクト!ラッキーだねと言っていました(^ ^)♩
添乗員さん方は英語しか話せませんでしたが5組
全員が日本人で皆さん夫婦で気持ちも楽でした☆関西から来られた方と仲良く話せてとても楽しかったですありがとうございます!写真撮っていたので目に入るといいなー(^ν^)☆
景色もよく、怖いという感覚もゼロ。飛びながら喋ったり、動画を撮る余裕もありました!運転手さんにクレイジーカップルだねと言われましたが…(笑)
あと私自身もですが酔い止めを飲んでも少し酔ったので酔い止め必須です。
チップは2人で20$払いました。写真はあらかじめ買いますと伝えて、70枚で30$、クレジットで払って35$でした!
帰りのバスでお花の髪留めとジュースをもらいました!可愛くておちゃめな運転手さん、楽しませてくれてありがとう(^ ^)
今回は120メートルでしたが次は150に挑戦したいです!!ベルトラさん、迅速な対応とスタッフさん方最高な思い出となりましたありがとうございました!長文すみません。笑
This was a super and well worth it tour. We had the Missouri in Washington state for many years and it was so great to see what a wonderful job Hawaii has done in taking care of this part of history. I learned so much history I didn't know about this war and these ships. The tour driver we had was one of the most knowledgeable ones I'd ever had he told us a lot of info we didn't learn on the tour. Not sure how to spell his name Kaleo I think. I would love to do it again as there was so much to learn.
It was great taking this tour with our toddler. It was my second time to make it to Kaneohe SandBar. My first on Captain's Bobs boat. The Crew was great and even though your sharing the tour with everyone else on the boat It didn't feel cramp at all. It was great to share the experience with other guest.
The food was good too. Most of my friends and I went in for seconds for sure.
The Sandbar experience was great too, even though there were jellyfishes on the water the crew was very good about keeping us informed on where to not go so that we can prevent from getting stung by the jellyfishes.
While we were on the tour it rained but that's Hawaii for you. If anything it made the experience that much better:)
When I went (at the end of October), the day before had rain, so the water quality was a bit murky, and the water level was below waist height, which wasn't the best situation. However, this is just a matter of luck, so I would like to try again. The crew was wonderful and made me feel that way. My 0-year-old (11-month-old) son also seemed to really enjoy himself, even just at the sandbar!
私が行った時(10月終わり)は前日が雨で水質が少々濁り、水位も腰より下ら辺で、本来のベストな状況ではありませんでした。しかしこればかりは時の運ですので、またチャレンジしたいと思います。そう思わせてくれるような素敵なクルーでした。0歳(11ヶ月)の息子もサンドバーだけでしたがとっても楽しんでくれている様子でした♪
The catamaran is so clean and has a bar onboard. The staff is amazing and everyone made us feel comfortable and ready for snorkling.
We went with seven people from three generations. I thought the person taking care of many tours at the meeting point, Hilton Hawaiian Village, was from Hilton, but it turned out to be a Japanese guide from Kualoa Ranch. They were very polite and made a good impression. The explanations at Kualoa Ranch were clear and concise, focusing only on the important points without unnecessary details.
We experienced three types of activities and a lunch course. Since my grandchild is small, we chose the Taste of Kualoa Tour, the Movie Site Tour, and the Ocean Voyage Tour.
On the Taste of Kualoa Tour, we were able to see and taste various tropical fruits. I had seen breadfruit many times, but it was my first time trying it as chips. They were deep-fried and seemed to have no seasoning, but they were very delicious.
The Movie Site Tour mainly focused on locations from Jurassic Park, and it was fun to watch Jurassic World on the plane back and see familiar scenes.
When my grandchild gets a bit older, I look forward to trying the horseback riding tour and the jungle expedition. I also want to enjoy the ATV tour.
三世代7人で行ってきました。集合場所のヒルトン・ハワイアンビレッジで多くの方のツアーの面倒を見ていた方はヒルトンの人だと思っていたのですが、クアロア牧場の日本人ガイドさんでした。皆さんに丁寧に対応しており好感が持てました。クアロア牧場での説明も余計なことは言わず、大事な事だけを簡潔に説明していたのでわかりやすかったです。
アクティビティ3種類とランチのコースを体験しました。
孫が小さいのでテイストオブクアロアツアー、映画ロケ地ツアー、オーシャンボヤジツアーです。
テイストオブクアロアツアーでは南国の色々な果物の見学と試食ができました。パンの実は何度も見たことがありますが、チップスを食べたのは初めてでした。素揚げで味は付けてないようですが非常に美味しかったです。
映画ロケ地ツアーではジュラシックパークのロケ地がメインでしたが、帰りの飛行機の中でジュラシックワールドを見て、見覚えのある場面が出てきて楽しかったです。
孫がもう少し大きくなったら乗馬ツアー、ジャングルエクシペディション。ATVツアーも楽しみたいと思っています。
I had my first overseas trip and my first surfing experience. The instructor was kind, and even as a beginner, I was able to ride the waves decently within an hour! If I go on my next trip to Hawaii, I would like to request Hands Heideman!
初の海外旅行、初のサーフィン体験をしました。インストラクターの方も優しく、初めての私でも1時間でそこそこ乗れる?所までなりました! 次回のハワイ旅行に行くなら、ハンズ・ヒーデマンでお願いしたいです!
I had heard from the guide that it might take some time to see wildlife, but we spotted dolphins right after departing from the port. We got ready for snorkeling and entered the water, where we were able to see dolphins swimming quite close to us. Additionally, at the snorkeling point, we also saw sea turtles swimming relatively nearby. It was a lucky tour, and I was very satisfied.
野生のものを見に行くので、すぐに見れるか分からないをガイドさんから聞いていたが、港から出港してすぐイルカを発見。シュノーケルの準備して海へ入って、結構近くをイルカが泳ぐのを見ることが出来た。
また、シュノーケリングポイントでは、ウミガメが割と近くで泳いでる姿も見れた。
ラッキーなツアーで満足。
It was a very enjoyable tour!
The sandbar was a bit different from what I imagined, with the water coming up to my waist, but it was incredibly beautiful and moving. The staff suggested practicing snorkeling, so I practiced diving with goggles. I had never swum in the ocean before and wasn't confident, so I was glad I practiced.
I was worried about snorkeling since I couldn't touch the bottom, but they provided life jackets and fins, so it was fine! I was thrilled to see colorful fish and coral reefs.
The day I participated was cloudy and sunny, so when I got out of the water, it was surprisingly cold on the boat, and it actually rained a bit, making me shiver for real. The air conditioning on the bus was also strong, so those who are sensitive to the cold should be careful!
The hamburger for lunch was delicious too! The staff were very kind and lively, making it a fun and safe experience. I'm really glad I participated! I would love to go again on a sunny day.
とても楽しいツアーでした!
サンドバーは想像していたのとちょっと違って腰のあたりまで水がきていましたが、とっても綺麗で感動しました。シュノーケリングの練習をしとくといいよ、とスタッフの方が言ってたのでゴーグルをつけてもぐる練習をしました。海で泳いだことがなくて自信がなかったので、練習しておいてよかったです。
シュノーケリングをする時は足もつかないので心配でしたが、ライフジャケットもフィンも貸してもらえるので大丈夫でした!カラフルな魚やサンゴ礁が見れて感激でした。
参加した日は曇ったり晴れたりだったので、海から上がると船の上は意外と寒く、途中ザッと雨も降って冗談ではなく本当に震えました。。バスの中も冷房がきいているので、冷え性の方は要注意です!
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです!
スタッフの皆さんもとっても優しくノリノリで、楽しく安心に過ごせました。参加して本当によかったです!また晴れた日に行ってみたいです。
Due to the unfortunate bad weather and temperature, we couldn't see the beautiful sandbar. There's nothing we can do about that. The staff's response was good, so I can recommend it. I was able to swim close to a large sea turtle while snorkeling.
あいにくの悪天候と気温のため、キレイなサンドバーは見れませんでした。
こればかりは、仕方がありません。
スタッフのかたの対応はよかったので、オススメはできます。
シュノーケルでは大きな海がめの近くで泳げました。
What a fabulous way to begin a vacation in Oahu! The Captain and Tour Director we’re knowledgeable, generous and entertaining. They made the first day of our vacation even more special than my husband and I imagined! Thank you!!
❤️たくさんのイルカがみれました!一緒に行った子供達も大興奮です
ガイドさん達もとても優しく、楽しい方達でした!╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
船の上でのフラダンスショーもあり、ステキな旅の1ページになりました
嬉しいご感想ありがとうございます。
This tour was completely satisfying. The hotel pickup, guidance at the harbor, explanations on the boat, and guidance at the sandbar were all excellent, including the explanation about the filming locations of Jurassic World during our return! Everything was satisfying. The weather, with rain and sunshine, allowed us to see a beautiful rainbow clearly from start to finish!
The date of the visit was October 11, 2018.
I took photos of a newlywed couple, but since I don't have their address, I couldn't send them, so I'm uploading the photos here.
If you're seeing this, I hope it's helpful!
このツアーは全てが満足でした。ホテルのピックアップ、ハーバーでの誘導、船上での説明、サンドバーでの誘導などなど、帰港中にジュラシックワールドのロケ地だった説明!全てが満足でした。天候も雨が降ったり晴れたりしたお陰でスタートからエンドまではっきり見える綺麗な虹を見ることができました!
現地月日は2018年10月11日です。
