It was really great! I couldn't meet the turtles, but I thought it was not allowed to go over the coral, so I couldn't go there myself. I was able to see schools of fish many times, and I was so moved that I wondered if I had come to heaven.
とっても良かったです!カメには会えなかったけど、サンゴの上は行っては駄目と思っていたので、自分では行けなかった所でした。魚の大群が何度も見れて、天国来てしまったかしら?と思うほど感動しました。

It's expensive, but I signed up for a plan that includes transportation. There are pizzas and hamburgers available on-site for about $10. I had those, and they were sufficient. There are a lot of slides, and I rode them all! It was so much fun!
I noticed that while some slides were empty just a moment ago, they suddenly had long lines, while others that were crowded earlier became available. I think it's a good idea to ride the ones that are less crowded. The big slide has both four-person and two-person floats, and I believe the green one is for two people.
If you just stand in line, everyone is waiting for the yellow four-person float, so two-person groups can get the green float by skipping ahead a bit. This way, your turn will come up quickly. There was no guidance, so I ended up standing in line.
It was great because I could play without it being too crowded! The showers are cold water. Please be careful as the lockers are small.
高いですが、送迎付きのプランで申し込み。
現地で10ドルくらいでピザやハンバーガーあります。
それ食べました。十分です。
スライダーがたくさんあって乗りまくりました!楽しすぎました!
スライダーはさっきまで空いてたのに急にすごい並んでると思いきや、さっきまで混んでた方が空いてたりするので、うまくすいてるやつから乗るといいと思います。
デカスラは、四人用と二人用の浮き輪があって、確か緑が二人用。
普通に並んでると四人用の黄色の浮き輪をみんな並んでるので二人組は緑色の浮き輪を横抜かし的な形でもらって行くことになります。
そーするとすぐ順番来ますよ。
なんの案内もないので、列に並んじゃってました。
混みすぎずにあそびまわれるので、最高でした!シャワーは水です。

On July 12, I participated with my 6th-grade daughter. The pickup was smooth, and since we arrived early, we waited about 20 minutes at the entrance. Waiting in the blazing summer sun without any shade was quite tough. After checking our bags, we entered. We were allowed to bring one unopened plastic bottle per person.
We used a smaller locker. I had heard that only cards could be used, but it turned out that cash was accepted for $13. I had a waterproof cover for my phone hanging around my neck, along with a card and about $50 in cash, so I might not have needed to rent a locker for just a towel and a change of clothes. There were plenty of chairs, so everyone left their belongings and went off to play.
Since we only had a plan for pickup and entrance fees, we bought a hamburger and fries set for about $10 for lunch. I wasn't expecting much, but it was really delicious! It was around 12:30, and we didn't have to wait long to buy it.
The attractions require you to carry your own float and climb quite a steep slope and stairs to slide down, which is pretty tiring, but it was a lot of fun and something you can't find in Japan. It was bustling with local kids during summer vacation.
The stairs and slopes were hot on bare feet, but beach sandals tended to slip off when sliding down, so marine shoes might have been a better choice.
7月12日小学6年生の娘と2人で参加。ピックアップはスムーズで、早めに着いたので入り口で20分くらい待ちました。真夏の太陽の下日陰もなく並んで待つのはかなり辛かったです。カバンの中身チェックの後入場。無開封のペットボトル1人1本なら持込OKです。
ロッカーは小さい方を使用。カードしか使えないと聞いていたのですが13ドル現金使用でした。私は携帯の防水カバーを首から下げてカード1枚と現金を50ドルほど入れていたのでタオルと着替えだけならロッカー借りなくても良かったかも。椅子がたくさんあるのでみんな荷物置いて遊びに行っていました。
ピックアップと入場料のみのプランだったのでランチは10ドルくらいのハンバーガーとポテトのセットを購入。期待していなかったけどとても美味しかったです^_^12時半くらいでしたがそんなに待たずに買えました。
アトラクションは自分で浮き輪を抱えてかなりの坂道と階段を上がって滑り降りる仕組みになっているのでかなり疲れますが日本にはない
アトラクションでとても楽しかったです♪
夏休みで地元の子供達で賑わってました。
裸足だと階段や坂道あがるのに熱いですがビーチサンダルは滑り降りるときに脱げてしまうのでマリンシューズだとよかったかも。

The staff seemed to speak some Japanese, and although all the other customers were foreigners, they spoke to us in broken Japanese. They were also very good at getting everyone excited and creating a lively atmosphere on the boat. They took photos during the parasailing, which can be purchased for $30 on an SD card. The quality of the photos was just okay. The parasailing experience itself was less bumpy than I expected, and I enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

It was a 120m experience with my 11-year-old daughter. The captain was very friendly, and my daughter, who was a bit nervous, really enjoyed it.

We participated as a family of four during the summer vacation. The first dinner buffet was held in an open area outside the theater. During dinner, we were able to watch a hula show right next to our table, which made for an enjoyable dining experience.
The dinner menu featured local Hawaiian dishes such as furikake rice, huli huli chicken, taro sweet potato, and whole roasted pig. One drink, a Mai Tai, was included, and adults could choose an alcoholic version while the children were served non-alcoholic drinks. Those looking for a wide variety in the buffet might find it a bit lacking.
After dinner, we moved to the theater for a rock show. Upon entering the theater, there was a photo session for the participating groups, which would be sold at the exit before leaving. The show featured talents resembling Elvis and Michael (?), though the resemblance was subtle. Our elementary school-aged child didn’t know who Elvis or Michael was, but still had a good time.
In the latter part of the show, there was a fire performance similar to a luau, which was quite enjoyable. Considering the content, I think the cost performance is high at about $220 for the family of four.
夏休みに家族四人で参加しました。
最初のディナービュッフェがあり、シアターの外のオープンな場所での夕食でした。夕食中はフラのショーをテーブルの横で見ることができ、食事しながらフラショーを楽しめました。
夕食のメニューはフリカケライス、フリフリチキン、タロイモのスイートポテト、豚の丸焼きなど、ハワイのローカル食が中心です。飲み物はマイタイが1ドリンク付いていて、大人はアルコール入りを選べ、子供にはノンアルコールのものが出ました。
ビュッフェに品数を求められる方には物足りないかもしれません。
食後はシアターに移動してロックのショーです。シアターに入ると最初に参加グループの写真撮影がありましたが、これは帰る前に出口で販売するためのものです。
ショーはプレスリーやマイケルそっくりなタレント(?)によるものでした。そっくりの度合いは微妙です。小学生の子供は小学生なのでプレスリーはおろかマイケルも知りませんでしたが、それなりに楽しんでいましたよ。
ショーの後半にはルアウのような火を使ったショーもあり、十分に楽しめました。
この内容で家族四人でおよそ$220ならコストパフォーマンスは高いと思います。

You can choose reservations in 30-minute increments, but if you're making a breakfast reservation, be aware that if it's too early, the hotel will be located a bit closer to Ala Moana Center rather than the center of Honolulu (next to the Hilton Hotel where the fireworks are held). Depending on where you're staying, you might have a hard time getting there without transportation. We made our reservation for 7 AM, so we took the bus to get close.
When you arrive at the hotel, please take the escalator to the restaurant instead of the elevator, as the elevator only serves guest rooms and does not stop at the restaurant.
The food includes Japanese dishes like miso soup, natto, and white rice, but it's definitely better to try the local offerings. The omelets and pancakes cooked on-site, along with fresh fruit and Hawaiian coffee, are much tastier! It was nice to eat slowly while looking at the harbor.
The waiter takes pancake orders one plate at a time, and refills are available. We ended up quite full, so we took a walk around on our way back, and we were able to scout the fireworks venue perfectly.
予約は30分単位で選択できますが、朝食で予約される場合はあまり早い時間ですと、ホノルルのホテル中心街よりも少しアラモアナセンター寄りのホテル(花火の上がるヒルトンホテル隣)となってますので、泊まっているホテルによっては、足がなくて大変な思いをされるかもしれません。私たちは朝7時に予約したため、the busを利用して近くまで向かいました☺︎★
ホテルについたら、エレベーターではなく、エスカレーターでレストランまで上がってください、エレベーターは客室用でレストラン側には止まりません(。pω-。)
ご飯は、日本食の味噌汁や納豆や白ごはんもありますが、やはり現地のものを食べた方が美味しいです。その場で焼いてくれるオムレツやパンケーキ、新鮮なフルーツ、ハワイアンコーヒーなどの方が断然美味しい!波止場を見ながらゆっくりと食べれて、気持ちが良かったです゚+(b゚ェ゚*)+゚
パンケーキはウェイターさんがオーダーを一皿ずつ取られまして、おかわりも可能です\(^-^)/
お腹いっぱいになってしまいましたので、周りを散歩しながら帰りました〜、花火会場の下見も出来たんでばっちりでした

I participated in the premium Japanese guided tour from 10 AM with my 2-year-old child.
I had assumed the guide would be Japanese, but it turned out to be Jim, a tall Westerner who had previously lived in Japan and spoke very fluent Japanese. He was a gentleman with a kind personality, attentive to details, and very friendly towards children.
I joined this tour because I wanted to show my child the underwater world, so I didn't have high expectations for the tour itself based on the reviews. However, it was fun to see artificial reefs and sea turtles up close. I believe this was largely thanks to Jim's detailed explanations. As a licensed scuba diver, Jim had impressive knowledge, and his explanations were very thorough and enjoyable!
When I visit Hawaii next time, I definitely want to join this tour again, specifically hoping to have Jim as our guide. Thank you, Jim!
If you want to enjoy Jim's explanations on this tour, I recommend going down the stairs from the entrance on the right side when boarding the submarine to sit in the front row. You can also see the control seat and sit close to the guide, which is a great option!

てっきり日本人ガイドかと思いきや、ジムさんという長身の欧米人で、以前に日本に住まわれていた、とても上手な日本語を話される方でした。お人柄も紳士的で、細やかな気遣いをされる、子どもにも優しいとても素敵な方でした。
今回、子どもに海の中を見せてあげたく参加したので、口コミを見てツアー自体にはあまり期待はしていなかったのてすが、人工魚礁やウミガメを間近で見られて楽しかったです。それもやはりガイドのジムさんの細やかな解説のお陰かと思います。ジムさんはスキューバダイビングのライセンス保有者なので流石の知識量で、解説がとても細やかで楽しかったです!
次にハワイを訪れる際も、またこちらのツアーを是非ジムさん目当てで参加させて頂きたいと思います。ジムさん、ありがとうございました。
もし、このツアーでジムさんの解説を楽しみたいのであれば、潜水艦に乗り込むときに向かって右の入り口から階段を降りると先頭の席に座れます。操縦席も見られ、ガイドさんの近くに座れるのでオススメですよ☆

We participated as a family of three (with a middle school daughter). We consulted with our guide, Mieko, about wanting to visit Kailua Town, and she gave us advice that allowed us to add bike rentals and extend our trip to Lanikai Beach and Kailua Town. Lanikai Beach has beautiful sand and clear water, and it was also less crowded, allowing us to relax. I'm glad we chose this course instead of the half-day option. There wasn't a single unnecessary item for enjoying the beach; everything was well thought out. The pizza for lunch was exquisite! The crust was perfectly baked, and we were amazed by its size, but we finished it all.
親子3人(娘中1生)で参加させて頂きました。
カイルアタウンも行きたいとガイドのみえこさんに相談し、アドバイスいただき、レンタサイクルを追加してでラニカイビーチ、カイルアタウンまで足を延ばすことができました。

This tour is greatly enjoyed by my third-grade child. We booked the submarine tour here for the second time, following last year. The deciding factor was that they offered late boarding times. In Hawaii, there are plenty of activities, allowing you to schedule various tours in one day. On this day, we had a packed itinerary, enjoying snorkeling at Hanauma Bay after climbing Diamond Head for sunrise, followed by the submarine tour. As far as I searched, the only option for a 3 PM boarding reservation (confirmed the next day after the request) was through VELTRA, which allowed us to have a fulfilling day. The issuance of the reservation confirmation and the transportation service are comparable to other companies, so I highly recommend it. There is a Japanese audio guide available on board, so there’s no need to worry.
小3の子供が大変気に入っているツアーです。昨年に続き、2度目の潜水艇乗船をこちらで予約しました。決め手になったのは、遅い時間の乗船予約が可能だったからです。ハワイでは、アクティビティが充実しているので1日に様々なツアーを組むことができ、この日もダイヤモンドヘッド日の出登頂後にハナウマ湾でシュノーケルを楽しんだ後の潜水艇ツアーと盛り沢山な内容でした。検索した限り、15時の乗船予約(リクエスト後、翌日に確定)はVELTRAさんだけでしたので、おかげで充実した1日を過ごすことができました。予約確定書の発行や送迎も他社ツアーと遜色ないので大変オススメです。艇内ではイヤホンによる日本語ガイドがあるので特に心配不要です。

Just before leaving for our trip to Hawaii, my child suddenly expressed a desire to go parasailing! Since time was tight and I was unsure about being tied up for more than half a day, I decided to choose a nearby tour that seemed to have a good reputation.
I hurriedly made a reservation before our departure, but thanks to the detailed communication and arrangements from the staff, we were able to have a wonderful experience within our desired time and budget.
On the day of the tour, we walked to the tour company's ticket booth before the meeting time (it was a hotel we could walk to), handed over the documents, signed the consent form, and off we went on the boat to the sea. I think the ride lasted just over 10 minutes, but seeing Hawaii from above was an experience beyond my imagination.
The captain made the harness fitting process enjoyable with jokes, which made me feel at ease. Since the sun was quite strong that day, sunscreen is definitely a must depending on the weather. Also, the boat swayed quite a bit, so taking motion sickness medication beforehand would be a good idea.
The captain was full of humor, and the hour flew by from departure to return. If I have the opportunity next time, I would love to experience it again.
ハワイ旅行の出国寸前に突然子供からパラセイルをしたい!との要望が。
時間も迫っていたのと、半日以上拘束されるのもどうかなと思ったので、なるべく近場で更に評判の良さそうなツアーを選んでみました。
出国前にバタバタと予約を入れましたが、担当者の方の細かな連絡と手配により希望の時間と予算で素晴らしい体験を出来ました。
当日は、集合時間前にツアー会社のチケットブースにテクテク歩いて行き(徒歩で行けるホテルだったので)、書類を渡され同意書にサインをしていざボートで海へ。
時間的には10分強程度だったと思いますが、上空から見るハワイの空は想像以上に素晴らしい体験でした。
ハーネスの着用も船長がジョークを交えながら行ってくれて安心でした。
当日は日射しも強かったので、日焼け止めは天候によっては必需品かと思います。それと船で結構ゆらゆらと揺れるので酔い止めは飲んでおいた方が安心かと思います。
船長もユーモアたっぷりで、出港から帰港まであっという間の1時間でした。
次回も機会があれば、又体験したいと思います。

At 7 AM, we were picked up from the hotel and headed to Hanauma Bay, which has been selected as the No. 1 best beach. This shallow sea, formed from a collapsed volcanic crater, is teeming with fish. You can swim surprisingly close to them.
The reason for the early morning start is that the parking lot fills up quickly. Due to conservation efforts, the parking capacity is small, and once it reaches full capacity, the gates are closed. During this time before the summer vacation in Japan, there are fewer Japanese tourists, and many locals are present. Also, there are plenty of cats on the beach.
And guess what!! A large guest, a seal, was there. Previously, they could only be seen a few times a year, but now it seems they are visiting almost every day.
Chieko from Blue Hawaii Divers kindly explained how to use the snorkel, and as soon as I dipped my face into the water, I could see fish right in front of me at a depth where I could still stand. As I continued swimming among the schools of fish, I finally spotted a sea turtle. Since it was featured in the educational video about Hanauma Bay, I kept my distance and was able to swim alongside it.
早朝7時のホテルピックアップでNo.1ベストビーチにも選ばれたハナウマ湾に。元々火口だったところが落ち込んでできた遠浅の海に魚がいっぱい。
びっくりするくらい近くで泳ぐことがでできます。
朝がやたらと早い理由は駐車場がいっぱいになってしまうからだそう。
自然保護のためか駐車場のキャパシティーが小さいので、いっぱいになった時点でゲートを閉じてしまうそうです。
日本の学校の夏休み前のこの時期は日本人が少なく、地元の人がいっぱい。そしてビーチには猫もいっぱい。
そしてなんと!!大きな先客、アザラシ君が。
以前は年数回しか見られなかった彼らですが、今ならほぼ毎日と言っていいくらい訪れているみたいです。

At the entrance, we were welcomed with a hula dance and enjoyed a welcome drink of Mai Tai (which we could choose to be alcoholic or non-alcoholic) as we entered.

The dinner consisted of delicious dishes! Our waiter didn't speak Japanese, but he listened carefully to what we were saying and communicated in clear English, so we were able to enjoy ourselves without feeling confused by any unclear English.
When he asked if we were celebrating a special occasion and I replied that it was our honeymoon, we received a complimentary bottle of champagne!
The show lasted about an hour, with dancers changing frequently and presenting various performances, and it went by in no time.
入り口ではフラダンスのお出迎えがあり、ウェルカムドリンクのマイタイ(アルコールかノンアルコールか選べました)を飲みながら入場しました。
先にディナーがありその後にショーです。
ディナーはどれも美味しいお料理でした!担当のウェイターは日本語は話せませんでしたがこちらの言っていることをよく聞いてくれて、英語でしたが分かりやすく話してくれたので分からない英語でモヤモヤすることもなく楽しむことができました。
今日は記念日なの?と聞かれたのでハネムーンだと答えたらシャンパンのプレゼントがありました!
ショーは1時間ほどですが次々とダンサーが入れ替わって色々なショーがあり、あっという間でした。
Thank you very much for watching the Rock of Ages show. Congratulations on your honeymoon! We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed it. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

I saw in the reviews that there wouldn't be any staff who spoke Japanese, so I participated, but there were some! Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy myself without any trouble.
Since it was in the mountains, I thought the sunlight would be strong, so I applied plenty of sunscreen and wore long sleeves. However, my arms, nose, and cheeks, which were exposed when I rolled up my sleeves a bit, got sunburned bright red.
The staff wore helmets over hats with brims, so if you're concerned about sunburn, I think it's a good idea to do the same.
The price is high, but everything in Hawaii tends to be on the expensive side, so it can't be helped.
体験談を見て 日本語を話せるスタッフさんがいないとわかって参加しましたが いました❗お陰で 困る事なく楽しく過ごせました
山なので日差しが強いと思い 日焼け止めをたっぷり塗って 長袖を着ていきましたが ちょっと袖をまくってたら 出てた腕と鼻とほっぺが真っ赤に日焼けをしてしまいました
スタッフさんたちは つばのある帽子の上にヘルメットをかぶってたので 日焼けが気になる方は そうされた方がいいかと思います
金額は高いですが ハワイでは 何もかもお高めなので 仕方ないですね~

I wanted to go on a buggy ride (I had been on a tour before and this time I just wanted to do the buggy), so I chose this affordable plan. However, I was worried about having to gather at the meeting point. Taking a taxi would require a lot of money, and I was scared to drive a rental car (I have no experience with left-hand drive and driving on the right side), so I was unsure what to do. I found out online that I could also take The Bus, so I decided to give it a try.
The Bus costs $2.75 one way, but a day pass is $5.50, so considering the return trip, it’s better to buy the day pass for peace of mind (you won’t have to worry if you make a mistake! You can also stop for a restroom break or shopping!). You just need to hand cash to the driver when you get on the bus and say something like, “One day, please.” I don’t think tipping is necessary.
The Bus to Kualoa Ranch departs from the Ala Moana Shopping Center. The number is 55. The starting point is on the mountain side, but it also goes by the ocean side bus stop, so either way is fine. The ocean side bus stop requires a short walk towards the airport (opposite of Waikiki) from the trolley stop.
It takes about an hour to arrive. There’s an electronic display board at the front of the bus, similar to Japanese buses, where you can check the destination. The stops will be Kualoa Maintenance, Kualoa Regional Park, and then Kualoa Ranch. It’s safer to press the stop request button (or pull the cord) a bit earlier than in Japan. Even if Kualoa Ranch doesn’t show up on the display after passing Regional Park, it’s better to press it just in case. However, since there will likely be other people getting off, you might not need to worry too much about it. Just be careful not to miss your stop.
Also, the bus can be very cold, so those who are sensitive to the cold should be cautious.
As for the meeting place, there wasn’t any specific designation. After passing through the visitor center, there’s a ticket office, and suddenly, a local staff member who speaks Japanese will start explaining things (not at the ticket office, but further back in a grassy area). If you’re unsure, it’s quickest to ask any staff member if there’s someone who speaks Japanese.
In any case, you will need to show your voucher at the ticket office to receive your buggy ticket. After getting the ticket, go to the buggy check-in (marked as ATV) about 10 minutes before it starts, where you’ll be asked to sign a document stating you won’t complain if you get injured. After signing, you’ll be guided to a small hut where you can watch a Japanese explanation video. After that, you’ll put on a helmet (available in sizes S, M, L) and large transparent glasses for allergies before getting on the buggy.
From there, the experience is similar to others, so I’ll skip the details. Just go with the flow. There are various people, and some may not drive well, so it can go quite slowly. It’s important to have an open mind and be prepared for that. Instead of trying to go fast or keep up with the person in front, the key is to enjoy the scenery safely.
The course is quite bumpy, so it’s best to be careful not to go off course or bump into the person ahead of you while having fun. They will take photos along the way, which you can buy at the end for $15. However, they will also take pictures with your own camera (for free), so if you can take your own photos, you might not need to buy theirs.
自分はバギーをしたかったので(以前にツアーで行ったことがあり、今回はバギーのみしたかった)、安いこちらのプランにしました。ただ、現地に集合しないといけない点が不安でした。
タクシーで行くならかなり大金が必要になり、レンタカーは運転が怖かった(左ハンドル、右側通行の経験なし)のでどうしようかなと。
ネットでThe Busでも行けるとのことで、試しに行ってみました。
The Busは片道2.75ドルですが、一日乗車券が5.5ドルなので、帰りの分を考えると一日乗車券を購入した方が精神的な安定を保てます(もし間違えても大丈夫!途中でトイレやショッピングモールに寄りたくなっても大丈夫!)。どちらもバスに乗る際に運転手さんに現金を渡し、「ワンデー プリーズ」とか言えば大丈夫です。チップは不要と思います。
クアロアランチへのThe Busはアラモアナショッピングセンターから出ています。番号は55番です。裏側(山側)が始発となっていますが、海側のバス停を経由しますので、どちらに行っても大丈夫です。海側のバス停はトロリーの乗り場より空港方面(ワイキキ方面と逆)に数分歩く必要があります。
大体1時間くらいで着きます。バスの前方に日本のバスみたいな電光掲示板があり、行き先を確認することができます。クアロアランチのバス停の前からクアロア○○というのが続きます。Kamehameha Hwy(カメハメハハイウェイ)ーKualoa Maintenance→Kualoa Resional Park→Kualoa Ranchの順で止まります。Stop Request(停止ボタン、もしくは縄みたいなのを引く)は日本より早めに押します。Resional Parkが過ぎたあたりで電光掲示板にKualoa Ranchが出なくても押した方が無難です。ただ、他にも降りる人がいると思うので、そこまで気にしなくても良いかもしれません。寝過ごさないように注意が必要です。
あと、バスの中はとても寒いので、寒さに弱い人は注意が必要です。
集合場所については、特に指定もありませんでした。ビジターセンターを抜けるとチケットオフィスがあり、気がついたら突然日本語を話せる現地のスタッフの説明が始まります(チケットオフィスではなく、さらに奥の原っぱみたいな所です)。分からなければ、まずは誰でも良いので日本語のスタッフがいないか、そこの辺にいるスタッフに聞くのが早いです。
ただ、いずれにしても、チケットオフィスでバウチャーを見せて、バギーのチケットをもらうことには変わりはありません。チケットをもらったら、始まる10分前にバギーの受付(ATVと書いてあります)に行くと、まずは怪我しても文句を言いません的な書類にサインをしろと言われます。そこにサインをすると次に日本語の説明ビデオを見れるような小屋に案内され、ビデオが流れます。それを見てから、その小屋内にあるヘルメット(サイズはS、M、Lなど)、花粉症用みたいな透明、大きめのメガネをつけてバギーに乗ります。それ以降は他の体験談と同じなので割愛します。なるようになります。色々な人がおり、運転が下手な人もいるため、すごいゆっくりになることもあります。その辺の覚悟、広い心は必要です。速く走ることや前の人について行こうと頑張るよりは、安全かつ周りの景色を楽しみながら行くのがコツと思います。
結構凸凹してますので、コースアウトしないことや前の人にぶつからないように注意して楽しむのが良いと思います。
途中で写真を撮られ、それは最後に15ドルで売ってます。でも自分で持ってきたカメラでも写真を撮ってくれますので(もちろんタダ)、自分たちのカメラで撮れれば必要ないと思います。

It was an awesome experience. The crew was very friendly and nice. The bus was nice and new and comfortable. I however did get a little sea sick so I would recommend taking motion sickness pills to help. Also I would bring a towel
Aloha Tobi,
Mahalo for your 5-Star review! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Motion sickness medication is a great recommendation, especially if it is something a guest is prone to. We offer PSI bands for sale on every tour for those who forget, as well. We are glad you enjoyed the crew and were comfortable on the bus. Please come again some day, and consider joining us for our other And You Creations tours! Aloha!

I swam with about 10 participants and 2 instructors. The sea was beautiful and clear, and just swimming felt really good. On that day, I was surprised to see a seal napping on the beach. I couldn't find a sea turtle right away, but I was glad to see one in the end. The sea turtles are cute, and even with people around, they swim gracefully, making it fun to swim alongside them. I probably wouldn't have been able to find them on my own. It's important to remember to wear your swimsuit under your clothes, as there may not be time to change.
10人くらいの参加者と2人のインストラクターで泳ぎました。海は綺麗で澄んでいて、ただ泳いでいるだけでとても気持ち良かったです。
この日は、なんとアザラシがビーチでお昼寝をしていて、びっくりしました。
海亀はすぐには見つかりませんでしたが、最後に見つかって良かったです。
海亀はかわいくて、人が周りにいても優雅に泳いでいるので、楽しく一緒に泳げました。
たぶん個人では絶対に見つけられなかったとおもいます。
水着は、服の下に着て行くのを忘れると、着替える時間がないので注意が必要です。
Dear Emi-chan, thank you for participating in the tour. On that day, there was quite a significant low tide, so I thought we might not be able to swim over the coral reef and that there might not be any sea turtles inside. However, we were very lucky to find them in the beautiful Sandman's Patch. It was great that you were able to swim with the sea turtles for a long time! You were truly a fortunate guest to also meet the seals!!
We would be delighted if you could join our tour again when you come back to Hawaii. We are always here waiting for you.
Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
えみちゃん様、この度はツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございます。この日はかなりの引き潮でしたのでサンゴ礁の上を泳ぐことができず、ウミガメもインサイドにいないかもしれないなあと思っていましたが、とてもラッキーなことにサンドマンズパッチの綺麗なところで見つけることができました。ずっと一緒にウミガメと泳ぐことが出来て良かったですね!それにアザラシにも会えて本当に幸運なお客様です!!
是非またハワイにお越しの際には私たちのツアーにリピートしていただければ嬉しいです。いつでもお待ちしております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

My perspective on life has changed.
It's not scary at all.
Your viewpoint and stance will change.
There is a shuttle service, which makes it easy.
You take off your shoes and go barefoot. Your clothes will get wet.
When you land, your butt will briefly touch the water with a splash.
For changing, let's go with swimwear and shorts.

We participated in a tour with my grandmother in her 70s and my 6-year-old daughter, spanning three generations. I was worried about my grandmother using the ladder to board the submarine, but she was able to get on and off without any issues. There was a Japanese-speaking guide, which allowed both my grandmother and daughter to enjoy the experience across a wide age range. My daughter wanted to see a stingray, and I wanted to see a sea turtle, and we were both very satisfied as our wishes came true.
70代の祖母、6歳の娘と3世代でツアーに参加。祖母が潜水艦に乗り込む際のタラップが不安でしたが問題なく乗り降りできました。日本語でのガイドもあり祖母も娘も幅広い年代で楽しむことができました。娘はエイ、私はウミガメを見たかったのですがそれぞれの願いが叶い大満足でした。
