The water slide was a lot of fun. My 2-year-old loved the kids' slide and went down it dozens of times. My 10-year-old daughter was very happy with the thrilling slides that aren't available in Japan. However, it seemed like it was just the start of summer vacation, and even though we went on a Friday, it was quite crowded, and we had to wait over 40 minutes for some rides. Because of that, we didn't have enough time (><). I would like to go again when it's less crowded. Also, even if you choose a plan without a float, you can borrow one. Everyone was using them freely on-site, and there was nothing written on the wristbands to check.
ウォータースライダーがとても楽しかったです。
2歳の子は、子供用の滑り台が気に入り何十回も滑っていました。10歳の娘は日本にはない迫力のあるスライダーにとても喜びました。しかしちょうど夏休みに入っていたようで、金曜日に行きましたが結構混んでいて40分以上並んだものもありました。。。ですので、時間が全然足りませんでした(><)もう少し、混んでいない時にまた行きたいです。あと浮き輪はついていないプランでも借りられます。現地では、みんなが勝手に使っていました。チェックするところも、リストバンドにも何も書かれていなかったです。

I participated in a dolphin tour departing from Ko Olina Bay three times, each with a different operator, but this one was the best so far. The reasons are: 1) the guide provided very thorough explanations, 2) after seeing the dolphins, we enjoyed observing turtles and tropical fish, and we also got to experience stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking all in one go, plus meals, snacks, and drinks (juice) were included.
In other tours, the drinks were just something like hot water. It felt like they were cutting costs quite a bit, but here they even included malasadas. It was all very well thought out and fulfilling.
The crew was bright and friendly, and they made sure everyone had a good time. The Japanese staff were also very polite and kind. It was a tour where we could enjoy ourselves while respecting the ocean, and I was completely satisfied. I will definitely re-enroll at the Private Dolphin University next time.
ここコオリナ湾から出港するイルカツアーに過去3回それぞれ別の催行で参加しましたが、ここがこれまでで一番よかったですね。それは、1)ガイドがとても丁寧に説明してくれる2)イルカを見た後は、亀と熱帯魚の観察、そして今はやりのスタンドパドルやシーカヤック体験と一度に3つも楽しめ、さらに食事とスナックと飲み物(ジュース)が付くところですね。
他のツアーで出る飲み物は、白湯のようなものだけ。かなり経費節約って感じですが、ここはさらにマラサダが付きます。至れり尽くせりで、充実していますよ。
クルーも皆明るくて親切で、平等に楽しませてくれました。日本人スタッフの方もとても礼儀正しく、親切でした。海への敬意を払いつつ、楽しむことができる、納得のツアーでした。今度も私立イルカ大学に再入学します。

My family and I went on the Hawaii Dolphin Swim & Snorkel on June 26, 2011 morning swim. It was beyond our expectations. We found dolphins right away and the captain and crew knew exactly where to find them. There were several dolphin pods and we were able to get pretty close to them but not touching them. 3 of them hovered about 5 feet below my wife and I making their squeal and clicking sounds. It was amazing. The snorkel equipment they provided was in good shape and very reliable. The boat was fine with plenty of room to move around and feel safe aboard. The crew was very professional, friendly and entertaining. The food was average but any time you've been in the water for a while, coming out to a hot burger is always delicious. I would highly recommend this trip especially if you want to get in the water. We also had time to freelance snorkel in an area 25 feet deep that had several sea turtles hanging out. They were fabulous to watch swim by you on their way to the surface

We seen so many dolphins and we were even fortunate enough to see Bottlenose Dolphins which are much much bigger than the frequent spinner dolphins. Bottlenose Dolphins do not come around the islands very often so this was a real treat, maybe even a once in a lifetime opportunity!!
The crew was very friendly and they held my sister's hand in the water because she is afraid of sea animals. But ONCE she put her mask on and placed her head under the water, it was a whole different world for her filled with beautiful colored fish and a huge reef system that surrounded her.
Wonderful crew, Tasty food, everyone on-board was really friendly and after a nice dip out in the deep blue ocean, you are treated to an open bar. Great Stuff! Thank you Hawaiiactivities.com and Ocean Joy Cruises for a wonderful dolphin watch and cruise!

The prestigious Dolphin University was amazing. Thank you to all the staff for their thoughtfulness.
I was unsure which cruise to choose, but I'm glad I went with Dolphin University.
The boat had a roof, so I wasn't exposed to direct sunlight, and after swimming in the ocean, it was nice to have warm tea served if I got cold. I appreciated that a lot. They took photos and sold them on DVD, so I didn't even need to bring my camera, which made it convenient.
We were lucky with the weather, and I felt like around 50 dolphins swam beneath me.
The turtles and yellow fish were also cute and fun. I will definitely participate again when I go to Hawaii!
名門イルカ大学最高でした。たくさんのスタッフの方の気遣いありがとうございました。

船に屋根があったので直射日光が当たらないし、海に入った後寒くなったら暖かいお茶が出てきたり、とてもありがたかったです。写真を撮ってくれてDVDで販売してくれるのでカメラも持って行かずにすみ楽でした。

It was quite a while ago, but I participated in October. I heard that there had been high waves for about a week prior, which made the sea murky and reduced visibility.
While on the boat, we could see the dorsal fins of the dolphins swimming, and each time we spotted them, we were told to "go! go! go! go!" and everyone hurriedly jumped in, but we could hardly see them swimming.
After jumping in three times, most people caught a glimpse for just a moment (about three seconds) on the third try, but another couple and I couldn’t see them at all. We moved again, and only those who hadn’t seen them got to try again. Finally, I managed to see them for about five seconds.
I should have been happy, but maybe because I had seen too many participant experiences and photos, I felt a bit disappointed, thinking, "I thought I would see more..."
After that, we moved to the bay. It was also murky there, with visibility of just a few meters. Of course, I couldn’t see any turtles or tropical fish at all. We alternated between kayaking and paddle surfing, but my spirits were low, so I ended up eating snacks on the boat.
In the distance, I could see a group of dolphins meeting with a school of dolphins. Having come to Hawaii to see dolphins, I was envious of those on the school’s boat who were chasing dolphins until the end, rather than staying in the murky bay for paddle surfing. I didn’t expect to see so few dolphins.
The staff were great. They really tried to make it exciting. If we could have seen the dolphins clearly instead of just for a moment, it might have been a lot more fun.
随分前になりますが、私が参加したのは10月でした。
現地ではちょうど一週間前くらいから高波が続いていたということで、海が濁り、透明度が低く。
船の上にいると泳いでいるイルカの背びれが見え、その度に船で移動し、「go!go!go!go!」と言われて皆慌てて飛び込むのですが、なかなか泳いでいる姿は見えず。
3回飛び込んで、3回目にして大半の人は一瞬(3秒くらい)見えたのですが、私ともう1組のカップルは見れず。
再移動して、見れなかった人だけ再チャレンジ。
ようやく私も5秒程度でしたが見えました。
本当は嬉しいはずなのに、参加者の体験談とか写真とか見過ぎていたのか、「もっと見られるかと思ったのに」という気持ちで、イマイチでした。。。
その後、湾のほうへ移動。
こちらも濁っていて、視界は数m程度。もちろん亀も熱帯魚も全く見られず。
カヤックとパドルサーフィンを交代で…という感じでしたが、気持ちも下がっていたので船上でお菓子を食べていました。。
離れたところでは、イルカ中学がイルカと会っている姿が。
イルカに会う為にハワイに来た私は、パドルサーフィンなどの為に濁った湾に留まっているよりも、中学の船で最後までイルカを追いかけているのが羨ましかったです。
こんなにイルカが見れないとは思っていませんでした。
スタッフの方はいい方達です。すごく盛り上げようとしてくれます。
イルカが一瞬だけでなくしっかり見られれば、きっと楽しかったのかもしれません。

Swimming with wild dolphins in the ocean has been a dream of mine for many years. I thought it would be difficult, so I participated with the expectation of being lucky to catch even a glimpse. However! Not only did I see them, but from the boat, I witnessed dolphins jumping, and once in the water, there were pods of dolphins coming one after another! I could even hear their cute sounds, and it was truly moving.
Additionally, all the staff were cheerful, and I believe it would have been a fun tour even if we hadn't seen any dolphins. After getting off the boat, we had a hula lesson in a cool shade, which also became a heartwarming and enjoyable memory. I definitely want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii.
野生のイルカと海で一緒に泳ぐのが長年の夢でした。
でも難しいだろうから、『ちらっとでも見れたらラッキーだな』ぐらいの期待で参加したのです。
ところが!ちらっとどころか、ボート上からはイルカたちのジャンプが、海に入ればイルカの群れが次から次へと!!かわいい鳴き声も聞こえ、もう感動でした。
また、スタッフも皆陽気で、もしイルカが見れなかったとしても楽しいツアーになったと思います。
ボートを降りた後は涼しい木陰でフラレッスン、こちらも心癒される楽しい思い出となりました。
今度ハワイに行ったときにも是非参加したいです。

We definitely go every year! The location is far, so it takes time to travel back and forth, but the American and wild attractions are so much fun. At first, I had to convince my family, who were hesitant, saying, "A pool in HAWAII?" (laughs)
There are many rides for two or three people, so it also allows for some bonding time.
Since it closes early, you can still have plenty of fun after returning to Waikiki, so I highly recommend it!
我が家は毎年、必ず行きます!
場所は遠いので、往復の移動時間は掛かりますが、アメリカンでワイルドなアトラクションが楽しいデス。
はじめは「HAWAIIに来てまで、プール?」と渋る家族を説得して、行ったのですが(笑)
二人、三人で乗るライドも多いので、スキンシップにもなります。
早めの時間にクローズするので、ワイキキに戻ってからも、充分遊べるので、お薦めです!

This tour is all about having a good vibe. The key to enjoying it is to let loose and have fun without feeling shy.
As for the dolphins, at first, I thought I might not see any, but later on, I encountered many dolphins, which made me quite satisfied.
You can also enjoy malasadas, marine sports, and hula dancing, making the most of your time in Hawaii.
It involves quite a bit of physical activity, so on the way back, I was so tired that I fell asleep in the car until we reached the hotel.
このツアーはとにかくノリが大切。恥ずかしがらずにノリまくるのが楽しむコツです。
肝心のイルカですが、最初のうちは全然見れずに、こんなもんかなーと思っていたのですが、その後たくさんのイルカに遭遇できたので、かなり満足しました。
他にもマラサダ、マリンスポーツ、フラダンスと、ハワイを満喫できます。
結構な運動量なので、帰りの車の中では疲れてホテルまでぐっすり眠ってしまいました。

I was picked up from the hotel where I was staying, passed by the "What Tree Is That?" tree, and arrived at the port. After a bathroom break, we boarded the boat. Before reaching the dolphin point, we were lucky enough to see a rare whale at the end of April. We snorkeled at the dolphin point. When we were told to "look down," we saw many dolphins! The underwater world, illuminated by sunlight, was beautiful.
My 4-year-old child was indeed scared of the ocean, but the staff helped by putting them on a kayak, and they seemed to have a great time.
The hula dance while feeling the wind was also enjoyable, and the CD of the photos I purchased turned out to be excellent. I brought an underwater camera, but I couldn't compete with the professionals.
Since it was April, I was glad I brought a hoodie.
宿泊してたホテルまで迎えにきてもらい、この木なんの木の横を通過し、港に到着。トイレタイムの後船に乗り込みます。イルカポイントに着く前に4月末には珍しい鯨に会えました。イルカポイントでシュノーケル。look downと言われ海の中を見るとイルカがたくさん!日の光が注ぐ海の中は綺麗でした。
4歳の子どもは、やはり海を恐がりましたが、スタッフがカヤックに乗せてくれて、楽しそうでした。
風を感じてのフラダンスも楽しかったし、購入した写真のCDも、申し分なく出来上がりの良いものでした。私も水中カメラを持って行きましたが、プロには敵わないです。
時期が4月ということもあり、パーカーを持って行って正解でした。

It wasn't my first time, so there wasn't anything particularly new, but it was a bit cold in March. However, the pool in Waikiki is similarly (or even more) chilly, so it's not an issue with the facilities.
When I visited before, not all the slides were operating at the same time, and there were periods when some were closed. This time, I felt there were a bit more closures. According to the staff, it was due to water usage restrictions. I'm not sure if this will be resolved in the summer, but even on a Sunday, it wasn't inconvenient enough to be a problem; it would just be better if everything was available.
It seems that people who booked through other travel agencies were on the same pickup bus. I recommend booking through Alan 1.
はじめてではなかったので、特段目新しいことはなかったのですが、3月でちょっと寒かったです。もっともワイキキのプールでも同様(あるいはそれ以上)ですので、施設の問題ではありません。
以前に行った時も全てのスライダーが同時に稼働しているわけではなく一部が休止状態になる時間があったのですが、今回はそれがちょっと多いと感じました。係員によると水の利用制限が理由とのことでした。夏になると解消するのか否かわかりませんが、日曜の参加でも不便を感じるほどではありませんが、全部使えるとなお良いです。
他の旅行社で申し込んだと思われる人たちも同じピックアップバスです。Alan1での申し込みはお薦めします。
Thank you for enjoying Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii. As you pointed out, similar sliders operate at slightly different times, but there may be instances where the operating rate is lower depending on the season. We will take your valuable feedback into consideration and strive to improve our services to provide a higher level of satisfaction. We look forward to your next visit.
ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイをお楽しみいただき有難うございます。ご指摘いただきました通り、同じようなスライダーは多少時間をずらして稼働しておりますが、シーズンにより稼働率が低くなっている場合もございます。お客様からの貴重なご意見を参考に、より満足度の高いサービスが提供できるように改善に努めさせていただきます。

It was my first experience with snorkeling!
Even though I wore a life jacket, it was quite challenging for me, who can't swim, to get used to using the fins ^^;
However, they assessed how well each participant could swim at the beginning and provided support, so I was able to swim with peace of mind ;)
The water wasn't as clear as in photos or stories, so I couldn't see the dolphins clearly underwater or swim with them, but I could hear their voices! ((@0@) From the boat, I was able to see several mother-dolphin pairs and groups☆
The captain and crew were incredibly kind, and the hamburgers were delicious ♥ When I was on the kayak, I got to see a sea turtle up close, which was truly moving (:_; )
And above all...

The day after arriving in Hawaii, three women in their 50s escaped Waikiki and, without knowing what to expect, the first challenge we took on was the Tornado at the world's largest and best water park. It was incredibly thrilling, and we lost ourselves in excitement, screaming together. We eagerly tried one attraction after another. Although we participated without much thought, we ended up having an absolutely wonderful day. When I shared this with others, they expressed a strong desire to try it at least once.
ハワイ到着の次の日50過ぎの熟女3名でワイキキを抜けだし、世界最大最高のウォータパークで訳も分からず、一番最初にチャレンジしたのが、トルネード。最高にスリル満点で、我を忘れて皆でキャーキャーと絶叫し、次から次へと他のアトラクションにチャレンジ。考えもせずに参加しましたが、最高に楽しい一日を過ごすことができました。

This was my second time in Hawaii, and while I went into the ocean last time, I thought just soaking in the water was boring. Since I was in Hawaii, I decided to fully enjoy some water activities and participated in this one. I'm not good with thrilling rides, but I found it wasn't too scary while holding onto the tube, or big float. I think I will participate in this activity again the next time I come to Hawaii, as I felt it was just right for "getting used to the water."

On the day of our visit, we drove there with a rental car. It’s easy to spot right after you exit the freeway.
There were three of us in the family, including a 4-year-old boy (105 cm tall). However, the height restrictions were quite strict, and although he was close to being able to ride, he wasn’t allowed (which is understandable for safety reasons). He seemed to find the slides in the kids' pool a bit lacking.
It was early March, and while there was quite a bit of sunshine, the water temperature was low, making it chilly even for adults.
I think kids in upper elementary school would really enjoy it. You can experience slides on a scale that you can't find in Japan.
The wave pool was also quite impressive and exciting. Young children can participate if they are with an adult, but since each inflatable ring can only hold one person, it can be dangerous if they can’t hold on (even for toddlers).
Personally, I found the restrooms and changing rooms to be old and dirty, which was a downside. It felt like more locals were visiting than tourists.
I recommend it for groups looking to have fun or families with older children.
当日はレンタカーで向かいました。フリーウェイを降りるとすぐ見えてきます。
家族3人、子供は4歳男の子(身長105センチ)でしたが、身長制限がけっこうシビアであと少しで乗れそうなのですが、やらせてもらえず、(安全上仕方ないですけど)子供専用プールのスライダー類ではあまりもの足り無かったようです。
3月の上旬で、日差しはけっこうありましたが、水温が低くて、大人でも冷たかったです。
小学校高学年くらいになれば、かなり楽しめると思います。
日本には無いスケールのスライダーを、楽しめます。
波のプールもけっこう迫力あって、もりあがります。幼児でも大人と一緒なら参加できますが、浮輪ひとつに一人ずつなので、(幼児でも1人)つかまっていられないと危ないです。
個人的には、トイレや更衣室が古くて汚かったのがマイナス要素でした。
観光客より、ロコが来ているという印象です。
グループでワイワイ、もしくは家族でもある程度の年齢の子供がいるファミリーにおススメです。

This was my first time participating.
The slides had a thrilling design that you can't find in Japan, and I was able to enjoy sliding on all of them. Even though it was a holiday, the wait times were only about 5 to 15 minutes, so I was able to slide a lot. However, since you have to climb the stairs to slide each time, it can be quite tiring on your legs. The Tornado and Shaka slides were particularly good.
I also took a bodyboard lesson, and we had the entire large wave pool to ourselves with just five people for 30 minutes. During the lesson, no other guests were allowed in, so it was just the five of us who participated that day. Even for those who had never tried bodyboarding before, the staff provided support, making it easy and fun to ride the waves.
今回、初めて参加させて頂きました。
スライダーは日本にはない絶叫設計?でどれも楽しくすべることができました。休日でしたが、待ち時間も5分~15分程度で、たくさんすべることができました。ただ、どれも自分で階段を上ってすべるので、足に結構きます。
特にトルネードとシャカがGOODでした。
ボディーボードレッスンも受けましたが、あの広い波プールをたった5人で30分も貸切状態。レッスンタイム中は一般のお客さんは入れないので、この日参加した5名だけでした。
ボディボード未経験者もスタッフさんがサポートしてくれるので、どんどん乗れて楽しいです。

This was my second time participating. The last time I went, it was called Hawaiian Waters Adventure Park. I thought maybe only the name had changed, but the facilities had also changed slightly.
This time, I attended with my 12-year-old son, and we had a great time. Previously, he was scared of the thrill rides, but at this age, he was able to enjoy all the attractions. There are also facilities for younger children, so even little kids can have plenty of fun.
I participated in a monitor tour, and I think the price with transportation included is unbelievably low! I don't think you would find this with other tour companies.
It was a bit chilly, and it was unfortunate that the Da Flowrider, which my child was most looking forward to, was closed. However, for this price, both of us were able to play a lot, and we were extremely satisfied.
Next time I go to Hawaii, I will definitely book not only Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii but also other optional tours through Alan1.net. I highly recommend it!
今回は二回目の参加です。以前行った時は、ハワイアン・ウォーターズ・アドベンチャーパークという名前でした。名前だけが変わったのかなと思ってましたが、施設も若干変わっていました。
今回は上の12才の息子と二人での参加でしたが、かなり楽しめました。以前は絶叫系を怖がっていたので、やはりこのぐらいの年齢になるとすべてのアトラクションが楽しめるなと思いました。小さい子用の施設もあるので、もちろん小さい子供でも十分に楽しめます。
モニターツアーでの参加でしたが、送迎つきでこの値段はありえない安さだと思います!他のツアー会社ではまずないと思います。
肌寒むかった事と、子供が一番楽しみにしていたダ・フローライダーというサーフィンのシュミレーション施設がお休みだったのが残念でしたが、この値段で親子二人がたっぷり遊べ、大大満足です。
次回ハワイへ行くときも、ウエットアンドワイルドハワイはもちろんですが、他のオプショナルツアーも絶対にAlan1.netで申し込もうと思います。

I participated in an early morning cruise. When it comes to the winter sea, it's all about whales. I was torn between a whale tour and this one, but I decided to take a chance on the winter sea and chose this tour.
Although it was a dolphin tour, we stopped at a point where we could see whales at the beginning of the cruise, and I was able to see my long-awaited whales. I was also satisfied to see a mother and baby whale!
Then, we encountered many dolphins, and just when I thought we found one, a group of a dozen dolphins appeared, which was so exciting! The snorkeling afterward was also great, as I saw a lot of fish.
I'm not a strong swimmer, but thanks to the life jacket, I was able to snorkel with peace of mind. This time, there were three generations participating, from 0 to 71 years old, and my 3-year-old son enjoyed snorkeling, while my in-laws also had a great time on the cruise and snorkeling.
There was a staff member who was fluent in Japanese, which was reassuring. I couldn't eat lunch on the boat due to a bit of seasickness, but the staff kindly packaged it for me to take home. I ate it at the hotel after returning, and it was light and delicious.

イルカツアーでしたが、クルーズのはじめはクジラが見えるポイントへも寄ってくれて、念願のクジラを見ることができました。親子クジラにもあえて満足!
そして、本題のイルカにもたくさんあえました。1頭見つけたと思ったら十数頭のイルカの群が現れて大興奮!
その後のシュノーケリングもお魚がたくさんみえました。
私はカナヅチなのですが、ライフジャケットのお陰で安心してシュノーケリングできました。
今回三世代で0歳~71歳の参加でしたが、3歳の息子もシュノーケリングを楽しみ、義両親もクルーズ&シュノーケリングを楽しんでいました。
スタッフは日本語の堪能な方がいて安心できました。
昼食はちょっと船酔いのため船内で食べられなかったのですが、スタッフのかたが配慮くださり、お持ち帰り用にまとめてくださいました。帰宅後にホテルで食べたのですがあっさりしていて美味しかったです。

We booked this tour after reading about it on a web site. We asked our kids do you want to go to amusemant park setting and touch dolphins, OR swim with them in the ocean, and the results was unanimous The wild ones in the ocean! They picked us up at our hotel and took us to the boat, they were very friendly and punctual. The staff on the boat were beyond awesome. They were fun and explained everything and paid special attention to our 9 year old who was a little scared to go out in the big ocean. Pete sense her fear, and took control and jumped in the water with her and she had the best seat in the house on his back swimming with dolphins! He even brough her up a sea urchin to delight her while she was eating lunch! We had pretty rough water but the captain on the boat did a great job, very obvious he knew exactly what to do in in rough ocean. They bbq'd burgers for lunch with purple colored hamburger buns wheich totally delighted our daughter! They entertained us afterward

I went for the first time, and it was so much fun with an intensity that you don't find in Japan!
The wave pool had incredible waves, and I couldn't move forward at all.
It was on a completely different level compared to the wave pools in Japan.
If I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate!
Next time, I want to go when it's hot!
(The weather was bad and cold~!!)
初めて行きましたが、日本にはない激しさで、とても楽しかったです♪
波のプールが半端ない波で、全然前に進めませんでした。
日本の波のプールと桁違いでした。
またハワイに行くことがあったら、是非参加したいです。
今度は暑いときに!
(お天気が悪くて寒かった~!!)

We participated as a family of four (two children, a middle schooler and a high schooler). It was a one-day course, but since it was only about four hours in total from 10 AM to around 2 PM, we felt like we could have used more time. In the morning, we arrived at the meeting point on time, and a large bus came to pick us up. We chose a plan to do bodyboarding at the location, which seemed to be especially fun for the kids.
夫婦と子供2人(中学生・高校生)で参加。1日のコースでしたが、10時から2時ごろまでの実質4時間だったので、もっと時間があればと感じました。朝は集合場所に時間通り、大型バスが迎えにきました。現地ではボディーボードをするプランにしたので、それが子供たちには特に楽しかったようです。

The tour guide was a wonderful Japanese lady who was very kind.
It was a lucky day; I was able to swim with dolphins (although they were a bit far away), see whales, and swim very close to turtles.
On the way back, I was thrilled to see a larger dolphin that rarely appears!
The lunch burger was really delicious, and those who wanted to could also enjoy kayaking, making for a very fun experience.
The local guides and hula dance instructors were also very warm and wonderful people, creating great memories.
There were couples, solo travelers, and groups of two girls, among others.
The boat swayed a bit, so it's better to take motion sickness medication!
I highly recommend this tour!!
ツアーのガイドさんも日本人の素敵なお姉さんで、とても親切でよかった。
その日はラッキーデーで、イルカとも泳げたし(ちょっと遠かったけど)クジラも見れて、カメともとても近くで一緒に泳ぐことができました。
帰りがけにたまにしか現れない大きめのイルカも見ることができて感動!!
途中のランチのハンバーガーがとってもおいしかったり、カヤックも希望者は乗せてもらえてとても楽しく過ごすことができました。
現地のガイドサンやフラダンスの先生たちもとても温かく素敵な人で、いい思い出ができました。
カップル、一人旅、女の子二人組みいろいろな方がいました。
船は少し揺れるので酔い止め飲んでおいたほうがBETTER!
おススメのツアーです!!

I have been to the North Shore before and enjoyed this trip the most. We enjoyed the Waimia Falls park more due to the guides suggestions. he was very knowledgeable and interesting. I especially enjoyed the turtles. I would recommend it for the young and hardy or an old folk like me. Great fun!

Thank you for participating in Dolphin University. Although the visibility can change due to ocean conditions, we are very sorry that you were unable to fully enjoy the anticipated encounter with the dolphins, as well as the snorkeling time with the turtles and tropical fish. We would be grateful if you could give it another try on your next opportunity.
このたびは、イルカ大学にご参加いただき有難うございます。海の状況により透明度は変化するとはいえ、楽しみにされていたイルカとの出会い、そして亀や熱帯魚とのシュノーケリングタイムを心より楽しんでいただくことができませんでしたこと、非常に残念に思っております。またの機会がございましたら、再度チャレンジしていただけましたら幸いです。
