Oahu
I was very satisfied with the horseback riding experience, which allowed me to ride in a more elegant natural setting than the last time I rode for an hour. The horses are very intelligent, so I could mostly leave it to them. I hardly had to use the reins, and I was able to enjoy the scenery safely. I would like to participate again if I have the opportunity.
前回1時間の乗馬体験の時よりもたっぷりと優雅な自然の中を乗馬体験できて、大満足でした。
馬が頭が良いので、ほぼお任せ。無理に手綱を使うこともほとんどなく、安全に風景を楽しめます。
また、機会があれば参加したいと思います。
We had to wait for the people coming later with the kayak, and that made the kids feel sick. Since they weren't able to paddle the kayak themselves, we were relieved to be towed back by the mother boat. However, it was tough being in a place without any shade while feeling nauseous.
カヤックは後から来る人を待たなければならず、それで子供が酔ってしまいました。自分でカヤックを漕げる状態で無かったので帰りはマザーボートで引っ張ってもらい助かりました。しかし酔った状態で日陰も無い所でいるのはきつかったです。
Dear Hawaii Lover,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for your review. We apologize for the situation where you had to wait on the water while the waves were good. Since it was a group tour, such situations can sometimes occur. We also understand that Flat Island, as the name suggests, is completely flat and has nothing on it, making it tough without any shade. We recommend wearing a hat, but it seems there was a lack of explanation from the guide, for which we apologize.
If you have the opportunity to join us again next time, we would love to have you back. We also offer semi-private group kayak tours for families and self-guided kayak tours where you can go at your own pace, so please consider those options.
We look forward to welcoming you again. Thank you.

ツアーにご参加及びレビューのご記入ありがとうございました。
他のお客様を海の上で待っている間に、波良いしてしまったとのこと。グループツアーなので、そういった状況になってしまいこともあるかもしれません。申し訳ございません。また、フラットアイランドは名前の通り、まっ平らで何もない島なので、木陰もなく、つらかったですよね。当店では帽子をかぶって行って頂くのをお勧めは致しておりますが、ガイドからの説明が足りなかったようで申し訳ございません。
次回また機会がございましたら、是非ともまた遊びにいらしてください。家族だけで行く、セミプライベートグループカヤックツアーや自分たちだけで自分たちのペースでカヤックのできる、セルフガイドカヤックツアーもございますので、ご検討をよろしくお願い致します。
またのご来店心よりお待ち致しております。ありがとうございます。

Me and my husband were on our honey moon and decided to do this! Such a blast! When you wait your turn you can snorkel, which I got to swim with a sea turtle! Then we got to go on the awesome scooters and you get to feed/touch the fish!
Also if you get sea sick or think you might take something before hand!
The staff was excellent! So nice and helpful! They all did an amazing job!
I was a little disappointed that we didn't land in the water for some reason, but my first parasailing experience was very enjoyable. I recommend going for 150 meters! I usually get motion sickness, but thanks to taking motion sickness medicine, I was totally fine with the boat's rocking!
なぜか着水してくれなかったのが少しだけ残念でしたが、初めてのパラセイリング体験はとても楽しかったです。150mがオススメです!普段乗り物酔いする私ですが、酔い止めを飲んでいたおかげか、船の揺れは全然平気でした!
I was very satisfied with the thorough guide from one end of Hanauma Bay to the other. Compared to other tours, the content was rich and a bit challenging, but I think the level of satisfaction was completely different. Additionally, I was impressed by the flexibility in adjusting the content to match the participants, and I was touched by the personalities of Chieko and Dan! I also appreciated that they provided photos for free on Facebook.
ハナウマ湾を端から端まで丁寧にガイドいただき大満足でした。
他のツアーに比べて、内容が充実していて、少しハードですが、満足度が全く違うと思います。
また、参加者に合わせて柔軟に内容を合わせていただいており、チエコとダンの人柄に感激しました!
写真もフェイスブックで無料提供してもらえたのもありがたかったです。
Dear Happa, thank you for visiting with your family this time. We are very happy to hear that you were satisfied with our guide. I'm glad you were able to successfully download the underwater photos.
Since you chose our tour among many others, we started this service with the thought that at least we could provide you with your underwater photos. It means a lot to us that you enjoyed it!
Please do consider repeating your visit with your family the next time you come to Hawaii. We will always be here to welcome you.
Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
はっぱ様、この度はご家族でお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
私達のガイドにご満足いただけたようでとても嬉しく思います。水中写真も無事にダウンロードしていただけて良かったです。
数あるツアーの中から私達のツアーを選んでお越しいただきましたので、せめて皆さんの水中写真ぐらいはと思い始めたサービスです。喜んでいただけて何よりです!
是非またハワイにお越しの際にはご家族様でリピートしてくださいね。いつでもお持ちしております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
We participated with two elementary school students and two adults, a total of four people. Our reservation was for 1 PM, but we had to wait about 40 minutes for the previous canoe to return. However, the staff member who spoke Japanese at the reception said, "You can wait in the pool at the Royal Hawaiian," so we were lucky to wait while playing in the pool, keeping the kids entertained.
We experienced the canoe with three families from the West and our group of four. In addition to a friendly captain, one of the staff members who spoke Japanese joined us, which made us feel safe and allowed us to enjoy the experience. The kids just sat in the canoe without paddles. When I asked, "Can we take pictures while on the canoe?" they replied, "You can take pictures without paddles," so I also took pictures without a paddle and enjoyed canoe surfing to my heart's content. Although we were told we could ride the waves twice, we were lucky enough to ride three times, which left us very satisfied.
We had a fantastic time at a reasonable price, and the whole family enjoyed it. I highly recommend it!
小学生2人と大人2人の4人で参加しました。
13時~の予約でしたが、前の回のカヌーが戻ってくるのを待っていて40分ほど待ち時間があったとおもいます。
しかし受付の日本語のできるスタッフの方が「(ロイヤルハワイアンの)プールに入って待ってていいよ」とのことでしたので、プールで遊びながら待っていたので子供達も飽きずに待ててラッキーでした。
カヌーは、欧米のファミリー三人と私たち四人が一緒に体験しました。感じの良いキャプテンの他に、先程の日本語のできるスタッフの一人も入ってくれて安心して楽しめました。
子供はオールは持たずに乗るだけ。 「カヌーに乗って写真を撮っても良いか?」と聞いたら、「オールなしなら写真撮れるよ」とのことだったので、私もオールはなしで 思う存分写真を撮りながらカヌーサーフィンを体験させていただきました。
波に乗れるのは2回とのことでしたが、またまたラッキーな事に3回も乗らせて頂き大満足です。
手頃な値段で、家族みんなが楽しめて最高の時間が過ごせました。
おすすめです!
I had my first horseback riding experience. Since there is no shuttle service, you have to get to Kualoa Ranch on your own, either by rental car or The Bus (public bus). I took the 55 bus from Ala Moana Shopping Center, which took about an hour to get to Kualoa Ranch. If you buy a 1-day pass when you board, you can make the round trip for about $5.50, which is quite affordable, even though it takes some time on the way back. A taxi would likely be very expensive since it's located on the opposite side of Waikiki.
Most of the staff are locals, so you need to communicate in English, but before riding, they show you an instructional video in Japanese, so even if you don't understand English, you can get the basic knowledge of horseback riding in Japanese.
Since it was my first horseback riding experience and I wasn't used to it, I had some painful muscle soreness in my inner thighs afterward, but more than that, I was very satisfied because I could enjoy the magnificent nature at a leisurely pace. I actually wanted to try the ATV experience as well, but it was fully booked, so I hope to try the ATV experience on my next visit to Hawaii.
はじめての乗馬体験をしました。送迎サービスが付いていないためクアロア牧場へは自力で行くしかなくレンタカーで行くかThe Bus(公共バス)で行くしかありません。私はアラモアナショッピングセンターから出ているThe Busの55番バスで1時間くらいかけてクアロア牧場へ行きました。乗るときに1day passを買えば、帰りも時間はかかりますが確か5.5ドルで往復できるのでかなり安く移動できました。タクシーだとおそらくワイキキの反対側にある場所なので、どんでもなく高くついたと思います。
スタッフは殆ど現地の方ばかりなので英語でやりとりしなければなりませんが、乗馬前に日本語のインストラクトビデオを見せてもらえるので、もし英語が分からなくても乗馬の基礎知識は日本語で得られます。
はじめての乗馬体験で慣れていなかったため、終わった後内股の筋肉痛が辛かったですが、それ以上に雄大な自然の中をゆっくり楽しめたので大満足でした。本当はバギー体験もしたかったのですが、満席という事で予約が取れなかったので、次回ハワイ訪問時はバギー体験をしてみたいです。
Thank you for your assistance this time. Perhaps due to it being the Obon season, there were many participants, and after watching the video and having a lesson on land, we were left relatively unattended, finishing in about an hour and a half instead of the two hours promised. There was also no proper guidance regarding the return transportation, leaving us wondering if that was it!?
I think it may depend on the number of participants, but I felt disappointed that I couldn't experience a sense of fulfillment, and it felt like I wasted my valuable time during my stay.
この度はお世話になりました。
お盆の時期だったためか参加人数も多かったこともあり、ビデオを見て、陸でレッスンして、あとは割と放置気味で2時間どころか全体で1時間半位で終了。帰りの送迎に対してもきちんとした案内もなく、これで終わり⁉︎という感じでした。
参加人数等にもよるのかと思いますが、充実感を感じられることなく終わってしまい、貴重な滞在時間を無駄にしてしまった感じでとても残念でした。
Choosing this zipline among the several options on Oahu was the right decision. Since we had some time on the bus, we stopped by Laie Point and unexpectedly got to take stunning photos of the scenery. The staff was very cheerful and made the experience a lot of fun. The view from the top of the mountain was also amazing, and I really enjoyed my time in Hawaii. It does cost a bit, but the experience is well worth it. This is a tour that you won't regret trying at least once.
オアフ島内いくつかあるジップラインの中でこちらを選んで正解でした。行きのバスでは時間に余裕があったため、ライエ・ポイントに立ち寄っていただき、思いがけず絶景の写真が撮れました。スタッフがとても明るく、大変楽しませてくれました。山の上からの景色も最高で、ハワイを満喫できました。少しお金がかかりますが、得るものも大きいです。一度は体験して損がないツアーです。
It shakes quite a bit! It's better to take precautions against seasickness for peace of mind.
The pickup was 15 minutes late, which made me very anxious, but I really enjoyed the activity itself! I didn't check the usual tipping rates and ended up giving a very small tip, so I felt quite sorry about it later.
かなり揺れます!
船酔い対策していた方が安心でしょう。
ピックアップは15分遅れで
とても不安になりましたが
アクティビティ自体はとても楽しめました!
チップの相場を調べておらず
かなり少ない額のチップしか渡せなかったので
後々とても申し訳ない気持ちになりました。
My second-grade son and my parents, who are over 70, participated without any issues and had a great time. The harnesses and safety belts were thoroughly checked and secured, which made me feel very safe.
小学2年生の息子や70を超えた両親も参加しても、何の問題もなく楽しめました。
ハーネスや安全帯もしっかりと確認してつけて頂き、とても安心できました。
The horses walk nicely, allowing us to ride for two hours while leisurely enjoying the scenery. At one point, when we fell behind, the guide gave the horse a little tap on the rear to speed up, which added a bit of thrill and was fun. There was a foreign participant at the front, and the guide was explaining something in English for them, but we couldn't understand. Since we walked in a line, it was also quite difficult to have conversations with my companions, making the activity feel somewhat lacking. The guide didn't engage us as much as on the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland; it felt more like riding through It's a Small World, just looking around. We walked mostly through the forest or among the trees, so there wasn't much concern about sunburn or heat. I've written quite a few negative things, but I think it's a good experience for horseback riding since it's not easy to ride alone for a long time in Japan. Overall, it's a nice tour for enjoying the scenery and the pleasant breeze while riding a horse.
お馬さんが良い子に歩いてくれるので、2時間ひたすら馬に乗ってゆっくり景色を楽しむ、という感じです。
途中、遅れを取った時にガイドの方が馬のお尻をちょっと叩いて駆け足になる、という場面があり、そこは少しスリルを感じられて楽しかったです。
先頭に外国人の参加者がいたので、その方たち向け?に英語で何か説明してたのですが、
私たちには分からず…
一列で並んで歩くので、同行者との会話もなかなか難しく、アクティビティとしては物足りなさを感じました。
ディズニーランドのジャングルクルーズぐらいガイドさんが盛り上げてくれるわけではなく、
スモールワールドくらい、乗り物に乗ってひたすら周りを眺めるという感じです。
森?木々の中を歩くことが多いので、日焼けや灼熱の心配はさほど要らないです。
マイナスな事を書きすぎましたが、
手綱を持たれる事なく一人で長い時間の乗馬は日本ではなかなか出来ないと思うので、
乗馬経験としては良かったし、馬に乗ってゆっくり景色や気持ち良い風を楽しむ、ということでは良いツアーだと思います。
I came to celebrate my birthday and also have a Romantic tour with my boyfriend. The workers were polite and I loved the horses! We enjoyed our visit and would definitely recommend to others to go. Lollipop ( my horse ) a perfect fit for me!
I made a reservation for 120 meters, and I think it was indeed 120 meters, but I felt a thrill and excitement that made it feel even higher. Ultimately, if you get friendly with the captain, he seems willing to accommodate requests on a whim. This is because the operation of the parasailing (managing the wires and adjusting the boat's speed) depends on the captain's skills, and in my case, it was outstanding (he operated the boat while singing along to the background music!).
Both the captain and the crew member were locals, and they could understand some basic Japanese, while basic English was also sufficient for communication.
Another memorable aspect was the Japanese person who provided transportation. He had a slightly suspicious vibe with his broken Japanese, but it was amusing, and he was quite kind, which made for a good memory in a way.
One point to note is that the boat goes quite fast and can be quite bumpy (the parasailing itself can also be shaky), so if you are prone to motion sickness, I think taking motion sickness medication is essential.
120mで予約して、結局120mだったとは思いますが、それ以上の高さを感じるほど楽しさとスリルを味わえました。
結局は船長さんと仲良くなれば、ノリでリクエストに答えてくれる感じがありました。というのもパラセイリングの操作(ワイヤーの操作、ボートの速度調整)は船長の操船技術次第ですが、私の時は抜群でした。(BGM流し歌いながらボートを運航!)
船長、クルー(1名)いずれも現地の方でしたが、片言の日本語は通じますし、片言の英語でも十分通じます。
また他に印象的だったのは、送迎の日系の方です。片言の日本語で若干胡散臭い感じがしたのですが、それがまた面白く、それでいて結構親切で、ある意味良い思い出となりました。
注意点としては、ボートが速度も出て結構揺れるので、(パラセイリング自体も揺れますが)、酔いやすい方は、酔い止めは必須と思います。
On the day of the event, due to traffic regulations, the pickup from the hotel was changed to a pickup about a 10-minute walk away. Parasailing is an activity unique to resort areas, so I think it will be a memorable experience. The scenery was also incredibly beautiful.
当日、交通規制があったためホテルピックアップではなく10分くらい歩いたところからの送迎に変更になりました。
パラセーリングはリゾート地ならではのアクティビティなので、思い出に残ると思います。
景色もすごく綺麗でした。
I participated in a 2-hour course with my family (two adults and one 15-year-old child). We watched a 5-minute video in Japanese before starting the horseback riding. There were about five people in our group. The guide spoke only in English, but gave directions in Japanese, so there were no particular issues.
Since I was far from the guide, I couldn't understand the explanation of the course at all, but the horse was calm and walked slowly, allowing us to enjoy the best views. (It felt more like being taken on a ride to enjoy the scenery rather than actual horseback riding.)
I experienced some knee pain, possibly due to the equipment not fitting properly, but I highly recommend this activity. There were various courses available at the ranch, but I think this one is the best for enjoying the scenery at a leisurely pace.
2時間のコースに参加しました。
家族三人で参加しました。(夫婦÷子供15歳)
日本語のビデオを5分程度見て、乗馬開始。
五人程度のグループでした。ガイドは、英語のみでしたが、行く方向を日本語で指示してくれて、特に問題有りませんでした。
ガイドと離れていた為、コースの説明は全く分かりませんでしたが、馬は大人しくてゆっくり歩いてくれたので、最高の景色を堪能できました。
(乗馬というよりは、馬に乗せて貰って景色を眺めるといった感じ)
器具があっていなかったのか、膝が痛くなりましたが、おすすめのアクティビティです。
牧場内に色々と参加出来るコースが有りましたが、一番ゆっくり景色を観れるコースかと思います。
The sea was more beautiful than I expected, and I could see fish, sunken ships, and planes very clearly. I was also able to encounter a sea turtle, which was great. However, not only the submarine but also the boat to get there swayed quite a bit, so those who are prone to motion sickness should be prepared.
思っていた以上に海がキレイで、魚や沈んだ船や飛行機などよく見えました。海ガメにも出会えたし良かったです。ただ、潜水艦だけでなくそこまで行くための船もかなり揺れますので乗り物酔いされる方は相応の覚悟が必要かと。
I participated in this highly-rated snorkeling tour at Hanauma Bay, among several options available. I had some previous snorkeling experience, but I wanted to join a properly guided tour. Early in the morning, our guide Dan picked us up from the hotel and we headed to Hanauma Bay.
Initially, I wasn't planning to rent a wetsuit, but after receiving explanations about injury prevention and increased buoyancy, I decided to rent one. It was my first time wearing a wetsuit, and I highly recommend it! Hanauma Bay has deep areas, but we also swam in shallow rocky spots. If I hadn't worn the wetsuit, my legs might have been covered in cuts… (*^^*)
Guides Dan and Chieko took us to a spot with plenty of fish. I don't think we would have encountered so many fish on our own. Before I knew it, we had been swimming for nearly an hour, which was surprising! I think I'm going to become hooked on snorkeling.
Thank you, Dan and Chieko! I would love to join again!
ハナウマ湾シュノーケリングツアーはいくつかありましたが、高評価のこのツアーに参加しました。以前、ちょっとしたシュノーケルは体験済みでしたが、きちんとガイド付きのツアーに参加したくて…。早朝、ガイドのダンさんがホテルまでピックアップにきてくれて、ハナウマ湾まで向かいます。
ウェットスーツは当初レンタルする予定ではありませんでしたが、ケガ防止や浮きやすくなるなどの説明を受けてレンタルすることにしました。初めてウェットスーツを着用しましたが、これはおススメです!ハナウマ湾は深いところもありますが、岩場の浅瀬で岩ギリギリのところも泳ぎます。もし、ウェットスーツを着用してなかったら、足が傷だらけになっていたかも…(*^^*)
ガイドのダンさんとチエコさんがお魚がたくさんいるところまで連れて行ってくれます。自分たちだけのシュノーケルだとこんなにたくさんのお魚には出会えていなかったと思います。気が付いたら、1時間近く泳いでいて、びっくり!!シュノーケリングのとりこになりそうです。
ダンさん、チエコさん、ありがとうございました! また、参加したいです!!
Thank you, Mr. M-Tan, for joining the Blue Hawaii Divers tour with your partner. The wetsuits not only provide insulation but also protect your body from scrapes and increase buoyancy, allowing you to swim more safely. Hanauma Bay has plenty of fish in the shallow rocky areas, so we will focus on swimming around the rocks during the tour. Therefore, wearing a wetsuit is recommended even in summer to prevent injuries. I'm really glad you enjoyed snorkeling. Please consider repeating the tour when you come back to Hawaii! Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
エムタン様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお二人でお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
ウェットスーツは保温だけではなく、体をすり傷などから守ったり、浮力が増すことでより安心して泳いで頂けるんです。
ハナウマ湾は浅瀬の岩場の所にお魚達がいっぱいいるので、ツアーでは岩場を中心に泳いで行きます。ですからケガ防止のためには夏でもウェットスーツはオススメなんですよ。シュノーケリングを楽しんでいただけて、本当に良かったです。またハワイにお越しの際にはツアーにリピートしてくださいね!
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
We participated as a family of four. Since we chose the 150m option, it felt quite high and gave the impression of going far up. The boat crew was cheerful, and we had a great time. Yano, who provided our transportation, was the best. We had a bit of time before boarding, but during the wait, we were told to cool off in the car, and after docking, they offered us drinks, showing great hospitality.
One thing to note is that the boat sways quite a bit, so motion sickness medication is a must. Even so, both of my adult daughters were feeling unwell.
家族4人で参加しました。150mにしたので、相当高く、遠くまで上がった印象です。ボートのクルーも明るく、楽しめました。送迎してくれたヤノさんは最高です。乗船まで少し時間があったのですが、待機時間中は車の中で涼んでおいてと言われたり、寄港後は飲み物をくれたりサービス精神満載でした。
一点だけ、ボートが相当揺れるので酔い止め必須です。それでも娘二人(成人)はダウン状態でした。
When booking this my wife and I have never done it before so we were on the edge about doing 500’ or 1000’. We chose the 1000’ and jumped on the boat with Captain Tom and Mike.
The humor they showed made it easy to relax and feel comfortable. They knew exactly what they were doing and made us and the rest of the people on the boat truly enjoy our time and experience. We would most definitely do it again if the opportunity arises.
Thank you Captain Tom and Mike!
I signed up for the dinner package. The quality of the course was excellent, with a generous amount of food that I couldn't finish. The show, featuring Michael and the dancers, was full of spirit and enthusiasm. I had come to see it with my mother 30 years ago. Even after 30 years, the show has not lost its charm. I want to go again.
ディナー付きで申し込みました。食べきれない量で質の良いコースがとても満足でした。ショーはマイケルはもちろんダンサーの方々のサービス精神旺盛。30年前に母と見にきたことがありました。30年経っても色あせないショー。また行きたいです。
Thank you very much for visiting us again. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time with us. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度は再ご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
All three instructors were unable to speak Japanese, but we were able to enjoy the zip line without any difficulty thanks to their gestures. If small children couldn't land due to their light weight, the instructors would cover for them, so there were no issues.
In addition to the zip line, we used a lot of energy climbing up with just our arms and crossing a bridge to the next zip line. However, being surrounded by the forest felt really nice.
You can buy a photo from the return pad for $15.
One thing that caught my attention was that all the participants were Japanese, but not a single person gave a tip. In America, tipping is part of the culture and can be a significant part of the salary, so it's important to tip to avoid leaving a bad impression of Japanese people. My husband and I each gave $20 while saying "Thank you very much!" The instructor was very happy and shook our hands. It's much nicer for both parties to give generously, so always make sure to tip!
インストラクターをしてくれた三人は全員日本語が話せない方でしたが、ジェスチャーで伝わってたので難なくジップラインを楽しむことができました♪小さい子でも体重が軽くて着地できなかったりした場合はインストラクターがカバーしてくれるので問題なしです。
ジップライン以外にも、腕だけで上に上がったり、次のジップラインまで橋を渡ったりと、体力かなり使います。けど森林に囲まれてかなり気持ちがいいです(^_^)v
写真は帰りのパッドから一枚$15で買えます。
最後気になったのが、参加者が全員日本人だったのですが、誰一人チップを渡していなかったことです。アメリカはチップ文化でチップがお給料の場合もあるし、日本人の印象が悪くなるので絶対に渡しましょう。Thank you very much!と言ってわたしと旦那は一人$20ずつ渡しました。インストラクターしてくれた方はすごく喜んで握手してくれました。ケチらず渡す方がお互い気持ちがいいので必ずチップは渡しましょう╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
My husband and I participated together. It was both of our first time parasailing, and we were nervous, but once we tried it, we talked about how glad we were to be flying (o^^o). It was such a great experience, so I highly recommend it as a memory of Hawaii! ☆
旦那と二人で参加しました。
二人ともパラセーリングは初めてでドキドキでしたが、いざやってみて飛んでる間やってよかったねと話しました(o^^o)
とても良い体験なのでハワイの思い出におすすめしますっ☆
It was the best honeymoon!
This time, I participated in the 150m experience.
The boat driver was friendly and had a great vibe, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
Also, the person at the reception counter spoke Japanese, so I felt安心して参加する事が出来ました.
We gathered directly at the yacht harbor, but there were no large, clear signs for Beltra, so I think it would be better if there were more prominent signs displayed.
最高の新婚旅行になりました♪
今回150mで参加させてもらいました。
船の運転手の人も気さくな人で、いい感じのテンションでさらにを飛ぶ事が出来ました。
あと、受け付けカウンターの人も日本語が出来る方だったので、安心して参加する事が出来ました。
私達はヨットハーバーに直接集合でしたが、ベルトラ などの看板が無かったので大きくわかりやすい看板が表示したらもっと良いと思いました。
Fantastic and energetic staff. Customer service was wonderful. Saw many Dolphin immediately. The guides in the water during the snorkeling time. Water was a little choppy and several customers were sick. Can’t do one thing about that, however, there needs to be another water cooler on the main level and one on the top level. Hydration is a must in these situations and water needs to be readily available for these people. Also, bigger cups. Lastly, during the swim on your own time, we saw a bunch of fish, but the wind was blowing the boat away from the swimmers and it was difficult to catch up. I would suggest a long rope line in the water with a orange float on the end that people can swim to when the boat is blowing away from the swimmers. Quick lunch a was good and well planned. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Would highly recommend this tour!!!
I participated with my first-grade daughter and my family of three. Since it was my daughter's first time snorkeling, I was a bit anxious, but I felt reassured seeing a wide range of ages participating, from young to old.
We practiced snorkeling at a shallow sandbar, and during the actual event, the location was deep enough to make even the parents anxious. However, we were not rushed and were able to enjoy snorkeling at our own pace. It seems that my daughter's first snorkeling experience became a fun memory, as she wrote about it in her summer vacation diary.
On the boat, Yukiko provided humorous explanations in Japanese, which made it enjoyable. Thank you for taking so many great photos at the sandbar!
P.S. The suspicious-looking old man who came to greet the bus at the dock seemed to be in charge of singing and narration? His deep voice added to the atmosphere of the tour. All the other staff were also kind, which was great.
小学1年の娘と家族3人で参加しました。娘がシュノーケリングは初めてだったので不安でしたが、老若男女の幅広い世代が参加していて安心しました。
浅いサンドバーで、シュノーケリングの練習をして、本番では親も不安になる程深い場所でしたが、急かされることもなく、自分たちのペースでシュノーケリングを楽しめました。娘も初めてのシュノーケリングが楽しい思い出になったようで、夏休みの宿題の絵日記に書いていました。
ボート内ではゆきこさんが日本語でユーモアたっぷりの説明をしてくれて楽しかったです。またサンドバーでも映える写真をたくさん撮ってくださりありがとうございました!
P.S. 船着場でバスを出迎えに来る怪しげな風貌の老人は、歌・ナレーション要因? 渋い声でツアーの雰囲気を盛り上げます。他のスタッフも皆親切で良かったです。
I enjoy horseback riding. I was looking forward to an outdoor ride visiting filming locations, but there was no explanation of the scenery, and we just passed by the photo spots. The young female instructor was unfriendly and didn't say a word. It was supposed to be a two-hour course, but we returned in just a little over an hour. When I experienced it in Canada, it was fun, so I was expecting something similar, but it was quite different. I won't participate again. The filming locations weren't that wonderful either. The photos in the guide are overly polished.
乗馬が趣味です。ロケ地巡りの外乗を楽しみにしていましたが、景観の説明もなく、フォトスポットも素通り。インストラクターの若い女性は無愛想で一言も言葉を発せず。2時間コースのはずなのに、1時間ちょっとで帰って来ました。カナダで体験した時は楽しかったので、そのつもりでいたらだいぶ違いました。もう二度と参加しません。ロケ地もそこまで素敵ではなかったです。案内の写真は出来すぎですね。
We rode horses in a line, five family members together in the great outdoors. It felt like a scene from a movie and was truly moving. Our 6-year-old child rode a regular horse at the front, guided by a staff member. The other participants walked alone without staff assistance, but the horses were well-trained and followed the horse in front of them properly. However, since the sun was strong, 20 minutes was just the right amount of time. I recommend this experience for families with small children as well as for grandparents!
大自然の中を馬に乗って家族5人1列に並んで歩きました。映画のワンシーンのようで感動でした。
6歳の子どもも普通の馬に乗り、一番前でスタッフが引っ張ってくれます。その他の人はスタッフは付かず一人で歩きますが、お馬さんがしつけられていて前の馬の後をきちんとついて歩きます。
ただ日差し強いので20分でちょうど良かったです。
小さいお子さん連れにもおじいちゃんとおばあちゃん連れにもオススメします!
ご親切なレビューをありがとうございます!
THnak you so much for your kind review!
It was my first time snorkeling, and I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind thanks to the Japanese guide!
You can leave your belongings locked up on the beach, so it's safe. (That said, it's better to avoid bringing large sums of money or anything that would be a problem if stolen...)
You can also take photos with a GoPro.
We had a lot of blurry pictures, so that was a bit disappointing...
初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、日本語ガイドで安心して楽しめました!
荷物も鍵をかけて、ビーチに置くので、安心です。(とはいえ大金とか、盗難でこまるものはやめた方が良いですが…)
GoProで写真も撮っていただけます。
私たちはピンぼけとかが多かったので、それだけ残念でした…
Dear Takemoto, thank you for joining our tour. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your first snorkeling experience.
Underwater photography is indeed challenging. Both the fish and people are moving, and the colors change depending on the position of the sun. Even with daily practice, underwater photography is truly deep and difficult.
We hope you will join us again on another tour when you come back to Hawaii. We are always here to welcome you.
Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
takemoto様、この度はツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。初めてのシュノーケリングを楽しんでいただけた様で、私たちも嬉しく思います。
水中写真は難しいですね。お魚も人物も動きますし、太陽の位置によって色の出方も変わります。毎日撮っていても本当に水中写真は奥が深く難しいです。
またハワイにお越しの際にはツアーにリピートで来ていただけたらと思っております。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!!
I was taken care of three years ago as well. I was moved to see that some of the staff members I had met before remembered me. My daughter, who participated previously, was 7 years old and scared to swim in the deep sea, so my wife stayed close to her, and I couldn't see much, which made me want to try again. This time, my daughter is now 10 years old and happily went into the sea, where she was able to see dolphins and honu (sea turtles) clearly.
On the boat, all the staff members were very kind and cheerful, making the time pass quickly. However, one thing I found disappointing was that they introduced a new two-story boat that can accommodate about 70 people. Because of this, there was less opportunity for conversation with the staff, and when swimming to see the dolphins and honu, there were too many people, leading to frequent collisions among guests, which was unfortunate.
3年前にもお世話になりました。
スタッフは以前お世話になった方もおられ、しかも私の事を覚えてくれていたことには感動しました。以前参加した娘は7歳で深い海で泳ぐのが怖いと海に入れず、妻が付きっ切りとなりあまり見れなくてリベンジしました。今回は娘も10歳となり平気で海にはいりイルカとホヌをしっかり見れたと喜んでおりました。
船上でもスタッフの皆さんがとても親切で明るく盛り上げて頂き、あっと言う間に時間が過ぎてしまいました。 ただ一つ残念に思ったのは新型の船を導入し2階建ての船となっており70名ほど乗れるそうですが、その分スタッフとの会話も減りイルカやホヌを見に泳ぐときも人が多すぎて密集し、お客さん同士がぶつかることが多々あり残念と感じました。
