My family and I enjoyed very much this luau. The staff made every effort to make us feel welcomed. Our leis were beautiful. Even though there had been a storm earlier and weather was not that great they still managed to provide us with a great show. The dancers were amazing the the fire performance was exciting. The only downside was that due to so much rain that had happened earlier we weren't able to experience watching the roasted pig being brought out of the pit.

There are many attractions like slides, an athletic course, a wave pool, and a lazy river, and my sixth-grade daughter and third-grade son really enjoyed themselves!
The shuttle service timing was just right! I definitely want to go again!

I was super impressed with the amount of sea life we were able to see. Lots and lots of Fish, Turtles, Whales, and Dolphins! We were also very well taken care of. We were greeted with happy helpful smiling faces, they had hot chocolate and pastries out for us. They were very helpful when were were getting in and out of the boat. The snorkeling gear they provided was top notch. They also had peppermint oil if anyone got sea sick, cool water for drinking, and had a fresh water shower hose on board to rinse off with leave in conditioner for our hair. They were incredibly knowledgable and big on safety. I would highly recommend this tour. It was worth every penny!

In the early morning, still feeling sleepy, the bus from Dolphin University came to pick us up at the hotel. Once we got on the bus, the morning assembly began, and I felt a sense of focus.
When we arrived at the port, dawn was breaking. I was anxious before departure, but it was a relief to be able to rent a wetsuit. We prayed before setting off, and then we were on our way.
We headed towards the area where the dolphins were, and before long, we saw a large group of dolphins. My excitement grew, and I jumped into the sea. There were so many dolphins around! There were also other groups of dolphins. Even from a distance, we spotted a whale swimming! I was overwhelmed to see two sea turtles swimming as well!
On the way back, our guide, Julie, said, "I hope you don't forget to smile when you return to reality." Her words really touched me. It might be difficult, but I want to keep that in mind!

The pickup location at the place we were staying was under construction, so we had to meet at the neighboring hotel, which was quite nerve-wracking. I felt relieved when the bus arrived, but one group was missing... The guide called out for them, but they weren't there, so we left. Even while driving, they were looking for them along the road. This really boosted my impression of the service.
As for the dolphins, they weren't swimming right next to us, but there were plenty swimming at our feet, and they swam alongside the boat while we were moving, which was incredibly exciting.
It was very disappointing not to encounter a honu. The snorkeling was cloudy, and it was different from what I had imagined. The weather is something you can't help, though.
But I was very satisfied. Nothing was as delicious as the malasadas on the boat!
泊まっていた場所のピックアップ場所が工事中で、隣のホテルで待ち合わせでかなりドキドキしました。バスが来たときにほっとしましたが、もう一組がいない・・・ガイドさんが声をかけてもいないので出発してしまったのですが、走っている最中も道路を見ながらいないか探されていました。ここで高感度があがりました。
肝心のイルカですが、近くで泳ぐ!!というわけではないのですが、足元でいっぱいのイルカが泳ぎ、船で走行中も並走して泳いだりしてもう大興奮でした。
ホヌに遭遇できなかったのはとても残念です。シュノーケル中も曇っていて、想像していたシュノーケルの感じとは異なりました。天気は仕方のないことですね。
でも大満足です。船上のマラサダほど美味しかったものはないです!!
It's a shame that the weather wasn't very good. I think July to September has the most days with nice weather. Please keep this in mind for your next visit.
お天気があまり良くなかったのは残念でしたね。7月〜9月が一番お天気が良い日が多いと思います。もし次回お越しの際にはご参考にして下さい。

We did the early excursion and were happy we did as our group only had 9 people and I felt we were able to see more activity. We rented wet suits since the water was just a bit cooler than our liking, and they worked great. The views on the way to the snorkeling spot are breathtaking as you see the sunrise behind a mountain range. We saw several whales and could hear their chatter in the water, an indescribable experience. We snorkeled with tropical fish, sea turtles, and dolphins. Then, we enjoyed a delicious lunch. Only wish we had more time.
The crew and shuttle driver were great! They even returned our beach towels, which we forgot at Spinner's. This excursion definitely under promised and over delivered.
We paid $50-$60 for the professional photographs, which was well worth it to us as it was impossible to capture everything. Can't wait to see them in a couple weeks!

This was my first trip to Hawaii. While searching for activities that I could enjoy with my 6th-grade daughter, I came across this tour. When I told my daughter about it, she immediately responded, "I want to go!" It's not every day you get a chance to meet wild dolphins.
I had some hesitation, wondering if I could wake up at 5 AM with the jet lag, if I would be okay since I'm not a strong swimmer, and if I might get seasick. I was filled with more anxiety than excitement. After much deliberation, I decided to go for it and signed up.
On the day of the tour, I was so excited that I woke up earlier than planned. I took my motion sickness medication and boarded the boat. After a few minutes, I heard the staff say that dolphins were nearby, and one by one, we jumped into the sea.
Honestly, it was a bit scary at first. I struggled to put my face in the water. I desperately searched for dolphins. Then, when I looked down… there they were right below me!! A pod of dolphins! Before I knew it, I was diving down and taking pictures, completely captivated. It was an emotional experience. My daughter seemed to see them well too. Although I joined the tour for her sake, I might have enjoyed it even more (laughs). After that, we also got to see a honu (sea turtle). It was amazing to see it swimming so close!
It was a dreamlike experience that went by in an instant. The staff were friendly, and I enjoyed chatting with them. I've been to various places, but this became my best memory in Hawaii. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would definitely like to participate in this tour again.
As many have mentioned, I think it's a good idea for those who are worried to take motion sickness medication. Thank you very much.
初めてのハワイ旅行。小学6年生の娘と楽しめるアクティビティはないかと色々探していたところ、このツアーが目にとまりました。娘に話した所、「行きたい!」と即答。野生のイルカに会えるツアーなんてなかなかありません。
私も行きたいなと思いながらも迷いがありました。時差ボケもあるのに朝5時に起きられるのか。あまり泳ぎが得意ではないのに大丈夫か。船酔いするんじゃないか。期待以上に不安もイッパイ。迷いに迷って思いきって申し込みました。
当日は楽しみで予定より早く起きてしまいました。酔いどめもしっかり飲んで船に乗り込むこと数十分。
イルカがいるというスタッフの方の声を聞いて、次々と海に飛び込みます。
正直ちょっと怖かった。最初はなかなか顔もつけられなくて。必死でイルカを探します。そして、ふと下をみると…真下にいました!!イルカの群れが!気がつくと夢中で潜って写真をとっていました。感動でした。娘もしっかり見れたようです。娘のために参加したツアーでしたが、私のほうが楽しんでいたかも(笑)。そのあとホヌもみることができました。本当にすぐそばで泳いでいてびっくり!!
あっという間の夢のような時間でした。
スタッフの方もフレンドリーで色々お話できて楽しかったです。
色々な所に行きましたが、ハワイでの一番の思い出になりました。
またハワイに行く機会があったらぜひ参加したいです。
みなさんかいてありますが、心配な方は酔い止めを飲んだほうがいいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

I stayed at the Sheraton in Waikiki for 5 nights and 7 days. I paid an additional fee for the convenience of being transported to the hotel by a large bus. It was very convenient since using public transportation with children is quite difficult, and I didn't rent a car. I was also worried about how much a taxi would cost and whether taxis are safe, even in Hawaii.
I went with my two elementary school-aged sons, my mother in her 50s, and myself, a group of four. There were many slides and a pool with waves, as well as a pool suitable for small children. The kids seemed to have a great time.
There is a bag check, and outside food is not allowed. The locker usage fee is around $13 for a smaller one and about $18 for a larger one, which seemed a bit expensive. We ate hot dogs, cheeseburgers, chicken, and fries. The weather was sunny, and we had a lot of fun! Also, there were lifeguards present, so it felt safe.
5泊7日でワイキキのシェラトンに宿泊。
表示の追加料金を払いましたが、大型バスでホテルに送迎してくれたので、とても便利でした。
子連れではなかなか交通機関を使った移動は難しいし、レンタカーも借りてないし、タクシーだといくらかかるか、ハワイといえどもタクシーじたいが安全なのか不安なので。
小学生の息子2人、50代の母と私の4人で行きました。
たくさんのスライダーや波がでてくるプール。小さな子でも遊べるようなプールもありました。
子どもたちはとにかく楽しそうでした。
バッグの持ち込み検査があるのと、食べ物は持ち込み不可。ロッカー使用料は暗証番号で何度も開閉できるけど、13ドルぐらいの小さめと18ドルぐらいのがあり高いな、、といった印象。
食べ物はホットドッグ、チーズバーガー、チキン、ポテトなどを食べました。
晴天だったし、楽しかったです!あと監視員みたいな人がちゃんといるので、安全です♪

There are many attractions like the Jumbo Ocean Pool at Nagashima Spa Land. Moreover, the wait time is almost zero! I had a great time. However, due to the limited number of staff, there were some slides that couldn't be enjoyed at certain times, so you'll need to plan accordingly to experience all the rides.
ナガシマスパーランドのジャンボ海水プールみたいなアトラクションがたくさんあります。
しかも待ち時間ほぼ0!とても楽しめました。
ただ、スタッフが少ないからなのか、時間帯によっては楽しめないスライダーもあったので、全種類遊ぶためには工夫する必要があります。

I mentioned this before on the phone. This was fun, but was only able to do one activity. Unfortunately the ad misleads you into thinking you can do whatever activities, whenever. You are allowed to swim, snorkel, bike ride or hike in the morning. Then you can either surf(which you cant cause it will cost you more when you never did it, apparently you have to take a lesson before using their boards), kayak, or stand up paddleboard in the afternoon. It just was a disappointment to have an expectaion of what to get for my day, then not do it. In other words, two spereate locations for the morning and afternoon activities, so majority of your time is traveling. Which is fine, but also would of have a different opinion. Knowing what i know now, i probably would never choosen this activity.
I missed the bus to go to the afternoon location, needless to say i was given the wrong time by tourist, but honsestly by the time i got there, i was out of time. One thing that is odd is the memory game, being dropped off somwhere and being picked up elsewhere. However, the people that works at the snorkel rental place, especially that young kid, clueless to his surroundings. Knew who i was & i who else i was there with in regards of the other party on the tour bus & couldnt inform me of the other party making it back. So knowing the time i had to be picked up, this kid not being observant and missing the bus is all my fault, right? So thanks for that! I had to wait for the city bus to pick me up to find out where the tour bus was to get back on it.
All in all, i only did one activity and did a lot of sitting & waiting around. Snorkeling was fun, but was my excitement was short lived with the turmoil. I had fun snorkeling, and thats about it. Oh yeah, dont worry, ill take care of that bus fare!
We are sorry you got the pick up times mixed up and were forced to catch a city bus to catch up , therefore missing your second activity. Normally we have other drivers on the North Shore and could have expatiated things so sorry for that too.PLEASE GIVE US A FUTURE DATE TO COMP YOU THE TOUR SO WE CAN SHOW YOU WHAT ITS REALLY LIKE.
P.S; FOR SAFTEY REASONS SURFING IS THE ONLY ACTIVITY WHICH IF YOU HAVE NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE WE REQUIRE YOU DO A LESSON. Those with some prior experience may surf with our basic package pricing.

Pretty good transportation to and from the luau. Lots of activities for both oldies and young ones. Having been to the same luau about 5 years ago, it was good to see that they changed their dinner program and made it still interesting.
Getting to the luau site early proved to be beneficial as you can enjoy games and other activities available. Food was substantial, although not much options for vegetarians. Dessert was also pretty subpar. Over-all though, pretty good value for your money.

I decided to go to Wet 'n' Wild after being recommended by my sister who lives in Hawaii. After arriving in Hawaii, I signed up and participated with my son and niece. Since we drove there with a rental car, my wife and daughter went shopping at a nearby shopping mall.
We arrived at the venue about five minutes after the opening time, but the ticket booth was open, and I was able to receive my tickets immediately after showing the voucher. Since bringing food and drinks into the park is prohibited, we had to dispose of our partially consumed drinks at the entrance. The lockers are assigned automatically; you just enter your preferred PIN, and you get a locker right away. A single large locker was sufficient for the three of us.
The facilities have a great variety of slides! Despite it being the year-end holiday season, we were able to ride most of the slides without any wait. There are single and three-person tubes available. You can freely take the tubes placed near the slide exits. We enjoyed our favorite slides and screamed together, having a fantastic time. (The Tornado was closed, and only two boats were in use for the Raging River, so we waited about an hour.)
When I asked the kids if they wanted to have lunch, they said it would be a waste of time, so we enjoyed the attractions, including the lazy river and wave pool, for as long as we could.
Hawaii has great beaches, but Wet 'n' Wild is definitely an experience I recommend! I look forward to enjoying it again next time!
ハワイ在住の妹から勧められ、ウェット・アンド・ワイルドに行くことを決めました。ハワイ到着後に申し込み、息子と姪の3人で参加しました。レンタカーで行ったので、妻と娘はすぐ近くのショッピングモールで買い物です。
開場時刻を5分ほど過ぎて現地に着きましたが、発券所は空いており、バウチャーを見せたらすぐにチケットを受け取ることが出来ました。
園内への飲食物は持ち込みが禁止されているため、飲みかけのドリンクは入り口で捨てていくことになりました。ロッカーも自動販売機で、好きな暗証番号を入力すればすぐにロッカーが割り当てられます。3人分の荷物も大サイズ1つで十分な大きさでした。
施設はスライダーが充実!年末の休暇中にもかかわらず、ほとんどのスライダーに待ち時間なく乗ることが出来ました。浮き輪も1人乗りから3人乗りまであります。スライダーの出口付近に置いてあるものを自由に持っていきます。それぞれ気に入ったスライダーを楽しんだり、3人で一緒に絶叫したりと、思いっきり盛り上がりました。
(トルネードは休止中で、レイジングリバーはボートが2つしか使われてなかったため、1時間ほど待ちました。)
子どもたちにランチを食べるかと聞いたら、遊ぶ時間がもったいないからということで、流れのあるプールや波の出るプールなど、時間いっぱいアトラクションを楽しみました。
ハワイは海もいいけれど、ぜひ体験してほしいウェット・アンド・ワイルドでした。
次回もまた、楽しみたいと思います!

I finally fulfilled my dream of swimming with dolphins! I was worried that the sea in December would be cold, but the weather was nice, and thanks to borrowing a wetsuit, I didn't feel cold at all. The crew spoke Japanese very well, which made me feel at ease.
The view from the boat while searching for dolphins was beautiful, with the green mountains and blue sea being absolutely stunning! With my heart racing, the time finally came to enter the water! Once in the sea, the crew dove down and brought up a starfish! Immediately, the photographer took pictures.
While we were doing this, I was told to look down, and when I did, I saw a pod of dolphins! I was so excited to see dolphins swimming so close and followed the pod. I encountered the dolphins multiple times, and I even got to see them jump out of the water, which was exhilarating the entire time!
I wanted to try stand-up paddleboarding during my free time, but due to the sea conditions, I couldn't, which was a bit disappointing. However, I did get to encounter a sea turtle, and I had a wonderful time!
The hamburgers made on the boat were delicious, and the photographer played the ukulele very well. The woman who danced the hula was also skilled, and there were many entertaining elements that kept us engaged.
At the end, we had photo opportunities at the helm, took pictures with the crew, and had a group photo with all participants, which was a lot of fun!
Since there were some people who got seasick, it might be a good idea for those who are anxious to take motion sickness medication for peace of mind.
ずっとイルカと泳ぎたいと思っていた夢が、やっと叶いました!
12月の海は冷たいかと心配していましたが、天気も良く、ウェットスーツを借りたおかげもあって寒さは感じませんでした。クルーの方が、日本語がお上手なので安心です。
イルカを見つけるまでの船からの景色も、とてもキレイで、山の緑と海のブルーが素晴らしかったです!
ドキドキしながら、いよいよ海に入る時が来ました!
海に入ると、クルーの方が潜ってスターフィッシュを取ってくれました!
すると、すかさずカメラマンの方が写真を撮ってくれました。
そうこうしていると、下を見て〜と言われ、下を見るとイルカの群れが!
こんなに近くを泳ぐイルカを見て興奮しながらイルカの群れについて行きました。
何度もイルカの群れに遭遇できたし、水上でイルカのジャンプも見れ、終始大興奮でした!
自由時間に、スタンドアップパドルに挑戦してみたいと思っていたのですが、海の状況で、できないとのことで、少し残念でした。
でも海ガメにも遭遇できとても楽しい時を過ごす事ができました!
そして、船上で作られたハンバーガーもおいしかったし、カメラマンのウクレレ演奏もお上手だし、フラを踊られた女性もお上手で、飽きさせない工夫がされていました。
最後は操縦席での写真撮影や、クルーの方達との写真撮影、参加者全員での写真撮影もあり、みんなで楽しむ事ができました!
船酔いされてる方がいたので、不安な方は酔い止めのお薬を飲まれた方が安心かもしれませんね。

I was able to swim! ^^
When I signed up, I hesitated. In the end, I decided to enroll to fulfill my partner's wish of "wanting to swim with dolphins."
Even with a life jacket on, I felt anxious. When I jumped in, my heart rate increased, and I couldn't breathe properly, so at first, I swam with my face mostly above water.
However, the crew was persistently encouraging, saying "Dive down, it's okay, it's okay," and after about five minutes, I managed to get my face in the water! (For someone who isn't good at swimming, those five minutes might be tough.)
I'm so grateful! Once I got my face in the water, it felt like a different world. There was a huge group of dolphins, probably around twenty. I was able to keep my face in the water longer because I wanted to see more. I knew I shouldn't move my fins, but out of fear, I was flailing them. However, realizing that the dolphins would swim away, I stopped moving my fins and just floated gently with the help of the life jacket.
I also got to see a sea turtle, and by that time, I was swimming at the front, sticking close to the crew.
This tour gave me a sense of security, knowing that they would help if anything happened. My enthusiasm to see the dolphins helped me learn to swim, and later, I found myself swimming without a life jacket on the beach. I'm so thankful.
I’ve decided to repeat this experience. This might be the first time I want to repeat an optional tour. The transportation to the Kahala Hotel (the meeting point was a five-minute walk from the hotel at Kahala Bridge) was also a nice touch.

飛び込んでも心拍数が上がって上手に息をすることができず、最初はほぼ顔出しで泳ぎました。
で、でも、クルーの方が粘り強くひつこいくらい「潜って潜って」「大丈夫大丈夫」と
言ってくださって、5分後には何とか顔に水をつけられるように!
(泳ぐのが苦手な人にとってはこの5分間はしょうがないかもしれません)
感謝です!顔に水をつけるとそこは上とは別世界。
20匹はいるであろうイルカの大群。
もっと見たいとずっと顔を水につけることができました。
フィンを動かしてはいけないとわかっていたのに怖さからばたつかせていたのですが、
イルカが逃げてしまうと知り、フィンは動かさずライフジャケットの力だけを
借りてそうっと浮かんでいました。
ウミガメも見ることができ、そのころにはクルーの方にくっついて先頭を
泳いでいる私。
このツアーには「何かあれば助けてくれる」という安心感がありました。
イルカを見たい、という熱意で泳げるようになり、その後、ビーチで
ライフジャケットもなく泳いでいる私がいました。感謝感謝です。
リピート決定。
オプショナルツアーでリピートしたいと思ったのははじめてかもしれません。
カハラホテル(集合はホテル徒歩5分のカハラブリッジ)への送迎もあったのも
よかったです。

Me and my boyfriend had a great time on this sail. The crew was so friendly, made us feel right at home. We like to snorkel every chance we get - and we love when the crew will show us specific cool finds - like sea turtles and dolphins! The food was delicious as well. We like more intimate sails, and there were only about 15 people on our boat, with 4 crew members - PERFECT! Overall just a great tour and exactly what we were looking for. Wish it would have lasted longer! 4 hours on the dot. Thanks again guys.

Thrilling! There are many slide rides that are like roller coasters, which are rare in Japan! A 90-degree drop is just the norm, and you might get thrown off your float, no mercy! Haha.
However, be careful as no one speaks Japanese here. I struggled to operate the unmanned machine that only had English instructions for setting the passcode for the coin lockers.
But since there aren't any large-scale pools like this in Japan, if you have the time during your travels, why not give it a try? 😊
スリル満点!日本では少ないジェットコースターみたいなスライダーがたくさん!!90度降下も当たり前、浮き輪から投げ出されようが容赦ない!!笑
ただ、ここは日本語が全く通じないので注意です。コインロッカーも英語表記のみでパスコードを設定する無人の機械を操作するのは苦戦しました。
でも日本にはここまで大規模なプールはないので、旅行に余裕がある方には一度来てみてはいかがでしょうか(^^)
Thank you for your feedback, Taiyou. The coin lockers have been updated since last month and now feature a self-service kiosk that supports Japanese. There is a Japanese flag icon at the bottom of the screen. However, during the time you visit, the sunlight directly hits the screen, making it very difficult to see. We are trying to adjust the orientation to minimize the light on the screen, but we will work on improving this as a future challenge.
Taiyou様、ご意見ありがあとうございました。コインロッカーは先月より新しくなり、一様セルフキオスクで日本語対応にはなっているのですが、スクリーンの一番下に日本の国旗マークが付いています。ただ皆さんがお越しいただく時間、太陽がスクリーンに直接あたり大変見にくくなってしまっております。向き等を変えて光がスクリーンなるべく当たらないようにしているのですが、これからの課題として改善させて頂きます。

This tour is full of Aloha hospitality. On the day I participated, I was lucky enough to encounter wild dolphins at two different points. The American crew was fantastic. The guide who swam with the dolphins was clear and kind in their instructions, and they were experienced in catering to each passenger's needs. I attended with a friend, but I noticed that they provided excellent care for families with children, which was appreciated. The guide's freediving underwater was artistic, almost like a dolphin! On the way back, they performed bright and beautiful prayer songs with sharp dancing.
For those who will be participating, I recommend taking measures against seasickness and bringing a waterproof outdoor jacket. I don’t get seasick, but quite a few people were feeling unwell and couldn’t enjoy the beautiful scenery of the boat trip, which was unfortunate to see. Additional investments to enhance your experience include seasickness medication, which is available at Japanese airports, and a $20 wristband that is introduced on the bus ride to the destination. Also, depending on where you sit on the boat, you may get splashed by the waves. Having a lightweight, water-resistant jacket would make your experience more comfortable.
アロハホスピタリティ満点のツアーです。私が参加した日は、ラッキーなことにポイント2ヶ所で野生のイルカと遭遇できました。アメリカ人のクルーも大当たりでした。イルカと泳ぐガイドもわかりやすく親切に案内してくれましたし、乗客の方それぞれにあった対応も慣れていて、私は友人との参加でしたが、家族連れには子供へのケアが厚く、ありがたい様子でした。水中でのガイドのフリーダイビングも芸術的で、まるでイルカみたいでした!帰りは明るくて祈りの歌が上手でキレッキレのダンスを披露してくれました。
これから参加される方には、酔い止め対策を取られること、Waterproofのアウトドアジャケットを持参されることをお薦めします。私は船酔いしないのですが、結構な方がダウンされていてせっかくの船旅の景色を楽しむことができず見ていて気の毒でした。体験を良くするための追加の投資は酔い止め薬は日本の空港でも売っていますし、往路のバスで$20のリストバンドが紹介されます。また船での移動は座る場所によって波しぶきがかかります。水を通さないタイプの薄手のジャケットがあると快適に過ごせると思います。

Paradise Cove is the very best Luau on the Hawaiian Islands. Veltra made reservations so easy and were excellent to work with. I felt very confident in them to provide a memory filled adventure. I highly recommend them.

At first, I didn't include a plan with transportation, but when I asked to be let on the bus halfway through, the bus driver kindly let me on. However, after getting off the bus, I paid for the bus fare, and it was really expensive (laughs). But I'm grateful to the bus driver!
最初、送迎こみでのプランにしていなかったのですが、バスに乗せてくださいと途中で言ったのにもかかわらず
バスの運転手さんが乗せてくださいました。
ただバスを下りてから、バスのお金を払いましたが、凄く高かったです(笑)
でも、バスの運転手さんには感謝です!
Thank you very much for your important comment, Yukki.
