All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

Paul our driver was very informative and told us many stories about the island and showed us so many beautiful places. Shrimp lunch was yummy.

Since I went on a weekday, I was able to ride the slides with hardly any wait. The lunch was also more delicious than I expected, and I ended up going back for seconds multiple times! I want to visit again when I go to Hawaii!

平日に行ったのでスライダーもほぼ並ばずに乗れました。ランチも思った以上に美味しくて何度もおかわりしてしまいました！またハワイに行った際は行きたいです!

The Friday night cruise food was very good and the dancers and live band were excellent. It was a fun filled evening with an opportunity to meet new friends from around the globe.

I was very moved because I was able to see both dolphins and sea turtles up close. I dove into the sea three times in total. The sea turtles were really close, it was amazing! There were about six of them. There were also many dolphins, and I got to see them jump.

I’m not great at swimming, but I managed. (When diving from the boat, there was pressure because people were waiting behind me, so I jumped in. But it was a bit scary. I ended up drinking a lot of seawater, but I was so moved that I didn’t care, and I floated back up on my own.)

I felt that it was very kind of them to call the hotel in the morning to check if I was awake. Moreover, the voice on the phone was refreshing and reassuring.

The new guide was on their first tour, so good luck to them!

If I had to say one thing, it was disappointing that there was only one paddleboard available, so I couldn’t try it! One group had taken it over. The hamburger was delicious, and I also enjoyed the potato chips. There were no fruits available.

イルカも海ガメもどちらも間近で見ることができたのでとても感動しました。計３回海にダイブ。海ガメは本当に間近にいてすごすぎです！６匹ぐらいいました。イルカもたくさんいてジャンプも見れました。
私は泳ぐとこが苦手でしたがなんとかなります。（船からのダイブは後ろに待っている人がいるのでプッレシャーで飛び込めました。でもちょっと怖い。海水も飲みまくりでしたが、感動でどうでもよくなりますし勝手に浮いてきます）
朝ホテルに電話を入れてくれて起きているか確認してくれる所もとても親切だなと感じました。しかもその電話の声がさわやかで安心します。
新人のガイドさんが初ガイドということでした、頑張って下さい！
１つ言うならば、パドルサーフィンが１個しかなかったのでできなかったことが残念！１組が占領していました。ハンバーガーも美味しかったですし、ポテトチップスも美味しくいただきました。フルーツはありませんでした。

I participated with a friend. I wanted to see wild dolphins, and I was truly moved not only by the dolphins but also by encountering sea turtles. We offered songs and flowers from the boat, wishing for safety, and then headed straight into the sea. Since we had experience with diving and snorkeling in Japan, we didn't have any particular issues. During the first dive, we only caught a glimpse of the dolphins for a moment, but during the second dive, after moving to a different spot, we were able to see a sea turtle up close, and there were about 15 dolphins swimming in a pod! On the boat, we enjoyed freshly grilled burgers, got dolphin tattoos, and the cheerful crew even danced the hula, making for an incredibly fun time. They also provided free drinking water, which I thought was a great way to prepare for the surprisingly exhausting snorkeling that left us thirsty.

On the way back, the bus had a temporary breakdown and took about an hour to repair before we could set off again. However, thanks to the staff member Mai, who kept us entertained with conversation until we reached our hotel in Honolulu, we managed to get there without too much trouble. I was a bit scared that the bus might break down again along the way, but now it’s a good memory.

This tour became the highlight of my trip. While luck seems to play a part, I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to meet wild dolphins!

友人と二人で参加しました。
野生のイルカを見たい！と思って参加しましたがイルカだけでなくウミガメにも出会えて本当に感動しました。
船上から安全を願って歌と花をささげ早速海へ。私たちはダイビングやシュノーケルを日本でやったことがあったので特に問題なかったです。1回目はほんの一瞬イルカが見えただけでしたが少し場所を移動した2回目はすぐ近くでウミガメを見ることができましたし、イルカも群れで15頭ほどいました♪船上ではその場で焼いたバーガーを食べたり、イルカのタトゥーを貼ってもらったり、そして愉快なクルーがフラを踊ってくれたりとテンション上がりまくりでとっても楽しい時間を過ごせました。自由に飲めるお水も置いてあり意外と体力を消耗し喉も渇くシュノーケルへの対策がなされていると思いました。
帰りのバスが一時故障し1時間ほど修理をし、再出発するというトラブルがありましたが、スタッフのマイさんがホノルルのホテルに着くまで話をして気を紛らわせて下さったお陰でなんとかホテルまで着きました。バスが途中でダメにならないかと怖い思いをしましたが、今となってはいい思い出です。
このツアーは今回の旅の中で一番の思い出になりました。運もあるようですが野生のイルカに会いたいは方にはオススメです‼︎

The morning plan was unfortunate due to the weather. The wind was strong, and the sandbar was only about knee-deep, making it quite cold. I wanted to see turtles, but for some reason, I encountered a manta ray instead. It was so cold that I gave up on diving into the sea. The weather improved in the afternoon...

午前中のプランであいにくの天気
風も強くサンドバーもももくらいまでの深さでとにかく寒い
亀を見たかったが、何故かマンタに遭遇
寒くて海に潜るのも断念
その日は午後から良い天気になった…

When I arrived at the pickup time, the driver immediately noticed me, and we smoothly arrived at the location. The weather was nice, and two cheerful young men explained everything clearly in broken Japanese, allowing us to enjoy the experience without any problems. I bought photos and a DVD on the spot, and they took more pictures than I expected, which made me very satisfied. On the way back, we were in the same car, but the driver instructed a different drop-off point that ended up being the opposite of another group of Japanese tourists. Since I couldn't speak English, I was dropped off at the wrong place and had to walk back to the hotel in my wet swimsuit.

ピックアップの時間に行くとすぐドライバーさんが気付いてくれてすんなり現地へ到着
天気も良くノリの良いお兄さん2人がカタコトの日本語で分かりやすく説明してくれて何も問題なく楽しめました
写真とDVDもその場で買って思った以上にたくさん撮っててくれて満足
帰りの車は同じ車でしたが、ドライバーさんが指示した場所がもう1組の日本人と逆になってしまいました
英語が話せないためそのまま違う所で降ろされて、濡れた水着のまま歩いてホテルまで帰りました

Since there is no shuttle service for the tour, I rented a Harley with a rental bike the day before and set off from the local area. In a country where helmets are not required, I enjoyed the freedom with a bandana and sunglasses while heading to the ranch. I wish this could be included in the tour as well!

This morning, it was just the four of us in a private session, and most of the preparations for horseback riding were already done. The horses, saddled and ready, lined up to greet us. The staff, consisting of friendly cowboys and cowgirls, assisted us, and since they could speak a little Japanese, the process was smooth.

The horse assigned to me was named Cowboy, and all the horses were well-trained and adorable. The horseback riding was quite hands-off, so beginners might feel a bit confused without an experienced rider accompanying them. It's common knowledge that the handling of reins is the opposite of Japan, so if you understand that, you can ride fairly freely, which made it a lot of fun for us.

We rode for 90 minutes, climbing steep, unmarked slopes and traversing a varied ranch landscape. It was very satisfying. However, I wished we could have been taken to a spot with a better ocean view at the top of the mountain, which is the only reason I’m giving it four stars.

I plan to choose this place for horseback riding again next time, but I think I will negotiate before riding. It was a lot of fun.

送迎の無いツアーなので、前日よりレンタルバイクでハーレーを借り現地出発
ヘルメットの要らない国なので、バンダナサングラスで開放感満喫しながら牧場目指して
ドドドドド！ （これもツアーに含めてくれればと思います）

今日の午前中は自分達４人だけの貸切状態で、乗馬の支度は殆どおわっており
鞍スタンバイの馬たちが、並んでお出迎え
スタッフも笑顔が素敵なカーボウイとカウガールが対応してくれて、日本語も片言で喋れる人達なので手続きもスムーズでした。

自分のあてがわれた馬は名前はカウボーイ、どの馬もよく教育されていて可愛かった
乗馬はかなり放任型で、初心者は経験者同伴じゃないと少し戸惑うかも
日本と手綱の扱いが逆なのも海外乗馬は常識なので、分かっていれば逆に
ある程度は自由に乗せてくれるので、自分達は凄く楽しかったです。

道無き急斜面を上ったり、起伏に富んだ牧場を９０分かけての乗馬
のりごたえ満点です。
ただ、山の上でもう少しオーシャンビューなところに案内してもらいたかったかな
と、そこだけが残念で星４つです。

次回も乗馬はここに決定のつもりですが、乗る前に交渉してみようと思っています。
楽しかったです。

My fiancé and I went on the Snorkel and Sunset cruise the second week of November. The bus pick-up was extremely easy and allowed for worry-free drinks on the cruise.

The cruise was spectacular. The orientation was clear and made us both feel comfortable. The snorkel spot selected was stunning and quite safe feeling. We saw many tropical fish and even had a ray breeze past! We spotted a humpback whale breaching and so the captain took us on over for a closer look.

The Kalua pork was tasty for dinner and the crew went out of their way to make sure we were all satisfied. We were treated to a beautiful sunset and leisurely cruise back to harbor.

Snorkeling at Angel's Sea's coral reef was amazing because I got to swim with a sea turtle. Before getting on the boat, it was raining and the weather was bad, but it cleared up before we boarded, which was great. Angel's Sea is really shallow and the water is beautiful. However, it was disappointing that there weren't many fish. It's a gentle course for beginners since you can practice snorkeling.

The next coral reef was deeper offshore, which might be a bit intimidating at first, but wearing a life jacket ensures you won't sink, so it's reassuring. Since the sun wasn't shining, it was hard to see the coral from the surface. Once you enter the coral reef, it gets shallower, which increases your sense of security, but be careful not to touch the bottom as it can cause environmental damage. The rule is to swim around the coral reef. There were plenty of fish, and I saw a sea turtle swimming as well, which was really nice. By chance, a sea turtle was right below me, and I was able to swim with it, which was the highlight of the experience.

天使の海のサンゴ礁でのシュノーケリングで、ウミガメと一緒に泳げたので、最高です。
ボートにに乗る前は、雨が降って天気が悪かったのですが、乗る前には天気も回復したので、良かったです。
天使の海は、本当に浅瀬で海はきれいです。ただ、魚がいないので残念でした。
シュノーケリングの練習もできるので、初心者には優しいコースです。
次のサンゴ礁でのシュノーケリングは、、沖合で海底が深く、ちょっと慣れないとしり込みしますが、ライフジャケットを着ていたら、絶対に沈まないので安心です。
日が差していなかったので、サンゴの場所が海面からでは分かりずらかったのです。
サンゴ礁に入ったら、浅くなるので安心感が増すのですが、足を着いたら自然破壊になるので、要注意です。
サンゴ礁の周りを泳ぐのがルール。
魚も沢山いたし、ウミガメも泳いでいましたので、とても良かったです。
偶然に、ウミガメが真下にいて、一緒に泳ぐことができたので、最高でした。

I asked a friend living in Hawaii if there was a place where families could go to see a Hawaiian show, and they recommended this show!

The first part of the show was quite relaxed. My dad seemed to be wondering when it would really start (laughs). Also, the MC spoke in English, so I think those who don't understand English might not catch what was being said at all...

The seats were perfectly fine even at the cheaper price! However, the seats were quite close to the strangers next to us, making it a bit difficult to move around (´･_･`).

The show itself was really impressive and powerful in the second half. The first part might be a little boring, though.

The buffet had a lot of variety, and as a meat lover, it was fantastic for me! There were also vegetables, fruits, and rolls, so I think even those who aren't fond of American food will find something to eat!

ハワイ在住の知り合いから、家族で行けてハワイアンショーが見れるところはないか？と聞いたところ、このショーを教えてもらいました！
最初のショーが結構ゆったりしていました。父は結構まだかみたいな雰囲気でした（笑）そして、MCは英語なので、英語分からない方は何を言ってるか全然わからないと思います、、
席は安い方でも全然十分でした！ただ隣の見知らぬ人ともかなり席が近くて少し動きずらいです(´･_･`)
ショー自体は後半はすごく迫力のある素晴らしいショーでした。途中までは少し退屈かもしれないですね。
ビュッフェもたくさん種類があり、お肉好きの私にとっては最高でした！野菜やフルーツ、巻物などもあったので、アメリカの御飯苦手な方でも少しは食べるものがあると思います！

I was finally able to go to the Angel's Sea that I had wanted to visit for a long time, and I saw a lot of fish while snorkeling! The water level at the sandbar was higher than I had imagined, but I understood that it can vary due to different conditions. I was able to go and come back quickly, so I enjoyed plenty of time in Hawaii in the afternoon! The staff were cheerful and interesting people, and even though it was a short time, I had a great time!

ずっと行きたかった天使の海に行けて、シュノーケルでたくさんの魚が見れました♡
サンドバーでは想像していたより水位が高かったですが、いろいろな条件が重なってできるものだと聞いて納得！
サクッと行ってサクッと帰れたので午後もたっぷりハワイを楽しめました！スタッフの方も明るく、おもしろい人たちで短い時間でしたが楽しめました( ˙▿︎˙ )/

My 9-year-old child participated and had a great time. They were able to stand up on the board in just one session and now want to continue surfing. The instructor was a foreigner, so I think it would be more enjoyable if you understand some English. By the way, my child can speak, so it seems they had a lot of fun! They also said the instructor was cool.

子供1人『9歳』が参加して最高だった、一回で立てて今後もサーフィンをやりたいと言っています。先生は外人なのである程度英語が分かった方が面白いのかなと思います。ちなみに子供はしゃべれるのでとっても楽しかったようです！先生もかっこよかったと言っていました。

I'm going to the location by rental car, but I don't want to wait in line at the ticket office, so I always make sure to purchase my tickets in advance. I go every year, so I will definitely use it again next year.

レンタカーで現地まで行くのですがチケットオフィスに並びたくないので必ず前もって購入してから行っています。毎年必ず行くので来年も使わせていただきます。

There were many exciting attractions, and I had a great time screaming with joy! I opted for the all-you-can-eat plan, but I think it might be better to buy food on-site. The sun was strong, so it might be a good idea to get drinks as well. It wasn't too crowded, probably because it was the day after Veterans Day, so I was satisfied that I could enjoy without waiting in long lines!

エキサイティングなアトラクションが沢山あり、ギャーギャー言いながら楽しめました！
食べ放題プランにしましたが、現地で買って食べた方が良いかな？と思います。
陽射しが強くて飲み物はつけても良いかもしれません。
ベテランズデーの次の日だったのかあまり混んでもいなく、そこまで並ばずに遊べて満足です！

I participated at the last session at 4 PM as a memory of our honeymoon.

The pickup bus was 7 or 8 minutes late, which made me anxious, but in the end, we were able to enjoy the sky and sea of Waikiki without any issues.

It was my first time parasailing. I was surprised at how quiet it was up in the air. I initially thought there would be a strong wind, but instead, it felt like time had stopped as I leisurely chatted with my wife during our aerial stroll. Just the two of us under the slightly setting Hawaiian sky. I felt so happy.

As part of the experience, there was a moment when we were descending to the boat at the end of the session, and they pretended to drop us into the sea for a second before soaring back up into the air. My wife and I got completely soaked, and the seawater stung our noses, but it became a fun memory. I'm grateful for that.

However, the waves were rough that day, and the boat was rocking a lot. An American man who had been lively on the way there was completely groggy on the way back. If you're prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must.

新婚旅行の思い出に最終16時に参加しました。

迎えのバスが7、8分遅れて焦りましたが、結果無事にワイキキの空と海を楽しめました。

初パラセイリング。上空は思いのほか静かで驚きました。
当初はもっとバシバシ風が来るものかと思ってましたが、時間が止まったかのような静寂の中、のんびりカミさんと会話しながらの空中散歩。
少し日が傾き始めたハワイの空に2人きり。幸せを感じました。

これはお約束のジョークなのか、体験終了時間が来てボートに降下していく際、一瞬海に落とすフリしてまた上空に舞い上がるという演出が入ります。
我々夫婦はどっぷり頭まで浸かってしまい、海水で鼻がツーンとなりましたが、それも楽しい思い出となりました。感謝です。

ただ、当日は波が荒かったのか、船の揺れがハンパなく、行きのボート上では元気だったアメリカ人のおじさんが帰りには完全グロッキーになっていました。
乗り物に弱い人は酔い止め必須です。

I participated in June.
I was worried about the weather, but I was able to see the beautiful sea.
However, I was disappointed that the sandbar had water up to my calves, which was not what I expected...
The Japanese female staff member was very cheerful and kind, and she took various shots with the camera, which I really appreciated!
It was my first time snorkeling, but they provided all the necessary equipment and taught me how to use it, so I felt safe diving.
Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from the food, but the hamburgers grilled on the spot were very delicious.
I definitely want to participate again!! Thank you very much!!

I recommend bringing a towel or hoodie, as it gets very cold after coming out of the sea.

6月に参加しました。
天気が心配でしたが、キレイな海を見ることが出来ました。
ただ、期待していたサンドバーはふくらはぎぐらいまで水位があって残念でしたが、、、
日本人スタッフの女性がとても明るく親切で、カメラも色んなショットを撮ってくださり
心遣いがとっても嬉しかったです！
シュノーケルも初めてでしたが、道具一式が揃っていて、使い方も教えてくれるので
安心して潜ることが出来ました。
正直、ご飯は期待していなかったのですが、その場でグリルしてくれるハンバーガーは
とっても美味しかったです。
ぜひまた参加したいと思います！！ありがとうございました！！

海からあがるととても冷えるのでタオルやパーカーを持参することをおススメします。

We were greeted at our hotel by a Cruise rep and his trainee who had a wonderful smile. We were taken to our boat and directed to our seats by a wonderful staff who all greeted us with the traditional "Aloha". The Cruise rep and his trainee (Smiley) cited on our table with tremendous professionalism and friendliness making our cruise very pleasant. The food was perfect for this cruise and everything was brought to our table in perfect order. The floor show was spectacular and it was fun seeing the traditions of dance and music. We started off during daylight and cruised the beautiful skyline of Waikiki Beach and Honolulu in the dark. Everyone had a chance to spend time outside on several different viewing areas. This was a great dinner cruise and we highly recommend it to people of all ages.

I thought it would have been better to check the weather before participating since it was bad. The sandwiches on the boat were delicious!! I expected to see quite a few sea turtles, but I was a bit disappointed as I only saw them occasionally. Please bring a jacket or a bath towel for the return bus, as it can be cold.

天気が悪かったので天気を調べてから参加したら良かったと思いました(^◇^;)
船の上でのサンドイッチは美味しかったです！！
海ガメも結構見れると思ってたんですが、時々しか見れず少し残念でした(^◇^;)
帰りのバスは寒いので上着やバスタオルを持って行って下さい◡̈

It was rainy, but only in the morning, and I enjoyed it enough. The guide was very entertaining. During snorkeling, I saw many swimming fish.

雨だっだが、午前中のみでしたが、十分楽しめました。付き添い（添乗員）のお姉さんが、とってもおもしろかったです。シュノーケルでは、たくさんの泳いでる魚が、見えました。

This was my first time in Hawaii for our honeymoon. My husband wanted to go snorkeling, so we chose this tour where we could swim with dolphins and enjoy snorkeling as well.

First, we were given flowers and had a touching moment of prayer together as we faced the sea. The main dolphin watching part was a bit intense; as soon as we arrived at the spot, we had to jump into the cold water without any warm-up or getting used to it, which made me a bit worried about having a heart attack! The experience of swimming with dolphins was different from what I imagined; instead of leisurely swimming alongside them, it felt more like a hurried attempt to catch a glimpse of the dolphins swimming below us while snorkeling. Since the dolphins are wild animals, it wasn't the relaxing experience I had hoped for.

The dolphin watching was over in an instant, and since some people didn't get to see them, we had a total of two watching sessions, but it felt like we were only in the water for about five minutes, which honestly left me wanting more. After that, we returned to the boat, but it was quite cold with the sea breeze, making it really uncomfortable until we reached the next snorkeling spot. I highly recommend wearing a thick hoodie and bringing a large towel.

The snorkeling afterward was satisfying because we got to see sea turtles up close, which was different from the main dolphin watching. However, the snorkeling time was relatively short, and it felt like it was over before we knew it. It wasn't a leisurely experience but more of a quick taste of it. After returning to the boat, we had a lunch that was labeled as BBQ, which turned out to be cheeseburgers. I had seen reviews about this beforehand, so I was prepared, but those expecting a BBQ might feel a bit misled. The taste was good, though.

Afterward, we enjoyed dancing the hula and taking photos, which was fun. However, in the covered area at the back, the deck leading to the second floor obstructed the view, and there was a noticeable difference in enthusiasm between the guests in front and those behind. Since we were seated at the back, I think some adjustments could be made for better visibility for everyone.

▼ Points of Concern
- The BBQ was misleading since I had an image of grilled meat; the cheeseburger label could cause confusion.
- Water was leaking from the air conditioning in the shuttle bus, soaking some guests.
- The photo data was quite expensive.
- The small boat made it feel like we had to be considerate of others during the move, and depending on the seat, the stairs blocked the view and sound of staff explanations and dances.
- There were no napkins or tissues provided for wiping hands after eating burgers and chips, which made things a bit difficult and the seats tended to get dirty.
- There was little consideration for those feeling cold or seasick; it would have been nice to have some towels or something prepared.

▼ Positive Aspects
- The moment of throwing flowers during the prayer was romantic.
- We got to see sea turtles up close.
- The music on the boat was lively.
- The temporary tattoo stickers were a nice touch.

For those who have participated in other tours or are of a more mature age, you might notice some issues with the facilities, timing, and service. If this were a monitor tour price, I would be satisfied, but at the regular price, I would like to see a bit more in terms of quality and time allocation.

I may have been a bit critical, but I’m really glad I was able to participate.

ハネムーンで初のハワイでした。旦那さんがシュノーケリングをしたいとの事で、イルカと泳げてシュノーケルも楽しめるこちらのツアーにしました。
まずお花を配られて海に向かって皆でのお祈りの時間は感動しました♪
メインのイルカウォッチングは、イルカがいる地点に着くと「今からすぐ行くよ！」という感じでそれまで一切準備運動や水に触れる事なくイキナリ冷たい海に飛び込まないといけないので、ちょっと心臓発作にならないか心配になりました；
メインのイルカと泳ぐツアーは少し想像と違っていて、イルカと泳ぐというよりはシュノーケルで真下を泳ぐイルカを急いで見る！みたいな少しせわしないものでした笑
イルカは野生で自然の生き物ですから、ゆっくり横で見れる～という感じではないのでもともとの私のイメージが少し期待しすぎたかもしれません＾＾；
イルカウォッチングは一瞬で終わってしまい、見れない方がいたので合計2回のウォッチングとなりましたが、海にいたのはものの5分程度？と思う程短かったので1回だけでは正直かなり物足りなかった気がします。。
その後船に戻りましたが、海風もあってかなり寒く……。次のシュノーケルの地点まで本当に寒くてツライ位でした；
参加される方はしっかり厚手のパーカと大き目のバスタオルは必須です。

その後のシュノーケリングは、メインのイルカウォッチングと違って海ガメを近くで見ながら泳ぐ事が出来て満足です♪
ただ、こちらもシュノーケルの時間が割と短く、もう終わりか～という感じでした。
ゆっくり楽しんだ！という時間ではなく、ちょっと体験！みたいな時間ですね。
船に戻ってからは、ＢＢＱという名のチーズバーガーの昼食時間。
ＢＢＱの件は事前に口コミを見ていたので、了承済みですがＢＢＱと思って参加される方は「これだけ？」となると思いますので少し過大表記しすぎかと…。
味はおいしいです。

その後は帰りまでフラを踊ったり、写真を撮ったりと盛り上げてくれるのは楽しかったです。
が、奥の屋根付きの所だと二階へのデッキが邪魔で全然見えず、前の客と後の客の温度差が…笑
こちらも奥の座席だったのでちょっと、もう少し皆がみやすい様に工夫が必要かと思います。

▼気になった点
・ＢＢＱは、焼き肉のイメージを持つのでチーズバーガーという表記が誤解がないのでは？
・送迎バスのクーラーから水が漏れていて、お客さんにすごい水掛かっていた
・写真データがあまりに高い
・小ぶりの船で、移動には他の人に気を使う感じだったのと、席によっては階段が邪魔でスタッフの説明やダンスなどが見えない＆聞こえない
・ハンバーガーやポテトチップスを食べるが手をふくものやティッシュもなく（数人に配ったら途中でなくなっちゃった、ごめんね～という感じ）ちょっと大変＆席が汚れがち
・さむがっている人や酔っている人には特に配慮がない（数枚でもタオルや何か用意していてもいいかな）

▼よかった点
・お祈りの時間で花を投げたのがロマンチック
・海ガメが近くで見れた
・海での音楽で盛り上がった
・タトゥーシールがちょっとうれしい

他のツアーなどに参加された経験のある方や割と大人の年齢の方だと設備面や時間、対応などが少し目につく所があると思います。モニターツアーでの価格なら納得♪ですが、正規の料金だともう少し充実度（時間の幅取り）がほしいかなと思います。

少し辛口でしたが、参加できたことはすごく良かったです。

I participated with my family on October 15, 2015. We've traveled to Oahu several times, but it was difficult to make a reservation, so we finally made it to the sandbar this time. The weather was nice when we departed from Waikiki, but by the time we arrived at Kaneohe Bay, it was pouring rain and very cold, making us worry if we would even reach the sandbar. However, we set sail as planned towards the sandbar. Along the way, the rain stopped, and we even saw sea turtles, which lifted our spirits as we arrived at the sandbar! The water was about knee-deep that day. All participants put on snorkeling gear and swam near the coral reef. Although the visibility wasn't great, we were able to see many fish. I looked up at the sky several times wishing for sunshine, but the staff's enthusiasm was amazing, and the simple sandwiches we had at the end were delicious! Next time, I definitely hope for a sunny day!

2015.10/15に家族で参加しました。
オアフ島へ何度か旅行してますが中々予約が取れなくて今回やっとサンドバーに行けました(^^)ワイキキを出発するときはお天気でしたがカネオ湾に到着するときにはなんと土砂降りでとても寒くてサンドバーにたどり着けるのか心配でしたが予定通り出航してサンドバーへ向かいました。途中、雨も上がり海亀さんも顔を題してくれてじょじょにテンションも上がりサンドバーへ到着です！この日はひざ下ぐらいの海水でした。参加者全員でシュノーケルをつけ珊瑚礁の近くを泳ぎました。透明度がありませんでしたが沢山の魚の姿を見ることができました。
何度も晴れていれば～と天を見上げましたが、スタッフの皆さん達の盛り上げ方も最高でしたし最後に頂いたシンプルのサンドイッチも美味しかったです！
次回は是非晴れた日に(^_-)-☆

I was moved to see the sea turtles. During snorkeling, there were sea turtles, and I was able to swim with them. However, I was a bit disappointed by the long wait times, such as waiting for the boat to depart.

Also, due to the timing, I understand it can't be helped, but I had imagined the sandbar to be a bit shallower; the water level was higher than I expected. The plan included about an hour of snorkeling time, but many participants were tired and got back on the boat after about 30 minutes, so it might be better to have a shorter time in the water.

ウミガメが見られて感動でした。シュノーケリングの際にもウミガメがいて一緒に泳ぐこともできました。ですが、船の出向までの待ち時間など待たされることも多く少し残念でした。
また、時期の問題で仕方ないのですが、サンドバーはもう少し浅いものを想像していたのですが、思っていたよりも水面が高かったです。プランでは１時間程度シュノーケリングの時間が取れられていましたが、参加者の多数派疲れて３０分くらいで船に上がっていたので、海に入るための時間は短めでもいいかもしれません。

The sandbar was cold. It seemed like it was a time of year when the beach wasn't really accessible, and I was constantly waist-deep in the sea. It wasn't at all like the small island I had imagined. I should have done proper research.
But!! After going snorkeling, my mood completely changed!
It was so much fun, and I really felt glad that I participated.
The crew was considerate towards families with children, so I recommend it for those with kids as well.

サンドバーは寒かったです。砂浜が季節的に？出ない時期だったようで、ずっと腰まで海に浸かっている状態で、私が想像していた、小さい小島？みたいな感じではありませんでした。ちゃんとリサーチすればよかったです。
でも‼︎シュノーケルに行って、気分一転！
すごく楽しくて、本当に参加してよかったと思えましたd(>Д<*)/
クルーの方々は子供連れの方への気遣いがあり、お子様連れの方へもオススメです。

We thoroughly enjoyed the sunset cruise. Extremely friendly staff and they made the experience special. Entertainment and good were great!

I was thrilled to see the whale right in front of me. However, the rocking of the boat was severe, and my whole family got seasick. That was disappointing. I almost got seasick for the first time myself, so it might have been a bit tough for the kids.

目の前のクジラに感激。しかし、揺れが酷く家族皆船酔いでダウン。そこが残念でした。
自分も初めて船酔いになりかけたので、子供たちには少しつらかったかな。

I participated in a dolphin and sea turtle watching tour in the morning. I was able to see many dolphins both from the boat and while snorkeling. The sight of a pod of dolphins swimming below and coming up to the surface for air was breathtaking. I wish I could have seen a few more sea turtles. I would love to participate again.

午前中からのイルカ、ウミガメウォッチングツアーに参加しました。船の上からもシュノーケリングでも本当にたくさんのイルカを見ることができました。イルカの群れが下を泳ぎ、呼吸のために水面に上がってくる光景は絶景でした。ウミガメをもう少し見れたらよかったと思います。また参加したいと思いました。

I was able to swim with wild dolphins. It was an early morning tour with mostly shy Japanese participants, but the staff worked hard to keep the energy up, thank you! While meeting the dolphins was important, I think just experiencing the breathtaking beauty of the West Coast, which I rarely get to visit, made the tour worthwhile. By the way, the cheeseburger was delicious; I wanted to say, "I'll have another!"

野生のイルカと泳ぐことができました、朝早いうえに内気な日本人ばかりのツアー、スタッフの方々は頑張って盛り上げてくださいましたありがとうございます、イルカと出会えるのも大切ですがなかなか訪れることのない西海岸の息をのむ美しい景色に出会えただけでツアーに参加した価値があると思います、それにしてもチーズバーガーおいしかったな、”おかわり！と言いたかった。

Upon reflection, I realized I participated even though I have a fear of heights (laughs). Even at 45 meters, it was thrilling enough. However, the experience of viewing all of Waikiki and the beautiful ocean from above was exceptional!

I just wish I had known that for an additional $30, I could have had photos taken on the day. I went without that knowledge and only had money for tips... It was difficult to capture my experience with my own camera. So, I give it ★4!

よくよく考えてみたら、高所恐怖症なのに参加してしまいました（笑）
45Mでも、十分スリリングでした。
でも、本当にワイキキ全体と美しい海を上空から眺められる体験は格別でした！

ただ、別途30ドル？当日に払えば、写真を撮ってもらえること知りたかったです・・・。
知らずに行ったので、チップ代しかもっておらず・・・手持ちのカメラでは乗ってる姿を写真に収めるのは困難でした・・・。
なので、★4つ！

Booking with VELTRA was really easy and fast, I gave them my information and they took care of the rest for me.

Dolphin Excursions Hawaii was also great! I had no problems with my pick up and
the boat crew was kind, friendly and helpful, they took many incredible pictures during the tour.

The West Side of the Island is beautiful. Snorkeling was amaaazing, we spotted so many dolphins, turtles and different species of fish. After the tour we had lunch at the Spinners Cafe, the food was very tasty.

I love marine life, especially dolphins, they are incredible animals! I had a lot of fun! This tour was the highlight of my trip.
