I participated in the tour starting at 12:00. The snorkeling lasted about an hour. There were four sea turtles swimming, and I was able to see them up close when they surfaced for air. However, it was disappointing to see someone of Asian descent touching the sea turtles at that time. After that, we cruised for about an hour before returning.
12時からのツアーに参加しました。
シュノーケリングは大体1時間程度で行われました。ウミガメが4匹泳いでおり、息継ぎで浮上した際には間近で見る事が出来ました。ただ、その時にアジア系の人がウミガメに触れており、残念でした。そのあと1時間程度クルージングをして戻る流れです。

It was my first time at such a height, so I was a bit scared, but it was refreshing and I really enjoyed it. I could see all of Waikiki, and the view was beautiful. There was a forecast for thunderstorms, but there were also some clear skies, which was nice.

Horseback riding was very enjoyable, and the staff at the ranch only spoke English but were very kind. The horses were very well-trained, and although I have a little riding experience, I think even beginners can ride comfortably.
However, the person who guided us...
They weren't a bad person, but they spoke unilaterally without checking in with us. It felt like they were progressing through the tour like a factory assembly line, just going through the motions. I intended to ask for lunch as well, but when was the order taken? At one point during the drive, lunch was mentioned, but they didn't take our order. The guide seemed to think that since there was no lunch order, everyone should take care of it themselves. As a result, everyone in the vehicle ended up getting lunch on their own.
乗馬はとても楽しく牧場の人も英語でしか話せませんでしたがとても親切でした。馬もとても慣れていて、私は乗馬経験が少しありますが、初心者でも安心して乗馬が出来ると思います。
ただ、観光を案内してくれる人が・・・
悪い人ではないのですが、一方的に話をして確認をとったりしない。工場での流れ作業の様に一人で淡々と進めていく感じでした。昼食もお願いするつもりでしたが、いつ注文?一度運転中に話をしている中で昼食についても話がでましたが、注文をとってくれませんでした。ガイドさんは昼食の注文がなかったので、各自でとって下さい。と注文をとったつもりでいた様でしたが、おかげで車中全員が各自で昼食をとりました。

After boarding, we quickly found dolphins and were able to swim with them. The dolphins swam around us several times without fear of humans, which was amazing. I was very satisfied to capture videos with an underwater camera.
After enjoying the dolphins, we went to another spot for snorkeling. The water there was murky, and we couldn't see many fish. There were a few fish around the coral, but they were few in number.
In addition to snorkeling, we could also play with inflatables, paddles, and kayaks, but for us, who were mainly focused on the dolphins, these were unnecessary. In fact, I wished we could have spent more time with the dolphins we found.
In conclusion, I thought that since Dolphin University is so active, perhaps activities other than dolphins are unnecessary. However, I was satisfied as we achieved our goal!
乗船後、イルカを探してすぐに見つかり、イルカと一緒に泳ぐことができました。イルカも人間を恐れて逃げるということ無く、私たちの周りを何度も泳いでました。水中カメラで動画も撮れてとても満足です。
イルカを堪能した後に別のポイントへ行きシュノーケルをしました。そちらは海水が濁っておりあまり魚もよく見えませんでした。珊瑚の周りにいくらか魚がいましたが少数でした。
シュノーケル以外にも、浮き輪やパドル、カヤックなどでも遊べましたが、イルカがメインの私たちには不要でした。むしろ、せっかく見つけたイルカともっと一緒にいられる時間が欲しかったです。
結論として、イルカ大学というアクティブなので、イルカ以外は不要なのでは?と思いましたが、目的は果たせたので満足です!

I chose a private course because I wanted to canter, having some experience in horseback riding. However, due to the impact of a recent typhoon, I had to cross a small river to get to the area where the horses could run. The horses couldn't cross, so I thought, "No way!" and decided to get a refund. As a result, I ended up on the same course as the complete beginners. I would have appreciated a heads-up before the tour started, letting us know there would be areas where we couldn't run. Moreover, it was a hot day, and the female staff had a sour expression, which made the experience feel unpleasant.

It was supposed to be a guided tour with a Japanese guide, but the bus guide only spoke Japanese for jokes and didn't inform us about when to get off or the order of disembarking, so I almost missed my stop. The boat staff were good, but unfortunately, the weather was bad and it was cold on the ground. It might be better to check the tide times before booking.
日本人ガイド付きとなっていましたが、バスのバスのガイドさんは冗談だけ日本語で帰りは途中で下車し、降りる順番とかも教えてくれなかったので危うく乗り過ごすところでした。船のスタッフさんは良かったですがあいにくの天気で地上は寒かったです。潮の時間を調べて申し込んだ方が良いかもです。

Dear Chihiro, thank you for joining the Blue Hawaii Divers tour.
In the morning, the tide was low, so the visibility was good, and I believe you were able to see the fish clearly. Toward the end of the tour, we encountered a turtle, and we followed it quite far out, which may have caused you to feel seasick. I apologize for that. Next time, if you take motion sickness medication early, you should be able to enjoy snorkeling more comfortably.
We look forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much for coming. Mahalo!!

I had been interested in parasailing for a while, and experiencing it in Hawaii was just perfect. So, I went for it. My partner, who is my wife, doesn't like heights, so I participated alone.
In my group (at 4:00 PM), all 10 other participants were foreigners. From the pickup to the return to the hotel, everything was in English ONLY. There are staff who understand Japanese on-site, so if you’re not comfortable with English, it might be a good idea to let them know in advance. That said, I’m not that fluent either, but I actually enjoyed interacting with the cheerful guide, so it was fun in its own way.
It may vary by day, but on the day I went, the boat was quite rocky (especially the waves were a bit intimidating when leaving the bay), so those who are sensitive to motion sickness should be cautious.
On the boat, there was a laid-back and cheerful captain along with two crew members. They played upbeat music, danced, and told jokes, making for a cruise filled with laughter. However, the safety instructions were clear and easy to understand, all in English, but there weren't any complicated procedures, so it was manageable.
Originally, it seems you can't fly solo, but since everyone else was participating in pairs, I ended up flying solo. They assess the wind and wave conditions to ensure safety, so it seems casual but is actually quite responsible (which is to be expected, of course).
This time, I took the 150-meter course, and when I went up, it was higher than I had imagined! Up in the air, I was surprised by how quiet it was, as I couldn't hear the boat's engine anymore. I could see the entire Diamond Head, the round horizon, and the high-rise hotels of Honolulu along with the white sandy beaches in the distance. The long-awaited aerial stroll while only hearing the sound of the wind was amazing.
As expected, I was dropped into the water at the end and high-fived everyone while returning to the dock. The ride back to the hotel, listening to the cheerful driver’s rapid-fire talk, was also enjoyable, making for a very satisfying experience.
Overall, from the hotel pickup to the return, it takes about 2 hours, so if you have any free time, I highly recommend giving it a try!
以前から興味のあった、パラセーリング。Hawaiiで体験できれば申し分ない。
・・・ということで、行ってまいりました。相方のカミさんは、高いのはダメなので、一人参加でした。
私の参加したグループ(16:00)は私以外の10名全て外人。送迎からホテル帰着まで、全て英語ONLYでした。現地には日本語わかるスタッフが居るので、英語ダメな方は、事前に伝えておいたほうが良いかも知れません。とは言え私もそんなに堪能なわけではないですが、陽気なガイドさんとのやり取りを、かえって楽しめた部分もあるので、それはそれで面白いと思いますが。
日によるとは思いますが、私の行った日はかなり船が揺れた(特に湾から出るちょっとビビるくらいの高さの波でした)ので、船に弱い方は要注意と思います。
船でもは、いい感じにいい加減(?)な乗りの良い陽気な船長とクルー2名が対乗船。ノリの良い音楽をかけて踊りながらJokeを飛ばし、終始笑いの絶えない、クルーズでした。とは言え、安全に係る説明や指示は、的確にわかりやすく、説明はすべて英語ですが、そんなに難しい手順があるわけでもなく、まあなんとかなります。
本来はSOLO(1人)では飛ばせないようなのですが、生憎皆さんペアでの参加でしたので、結局SOLOで飛部事になりました。きちんと風や揺れの状況見て判断するから大丈夫と、このあたりもいい加減なようで、きちんとしてます(まあ当たり前ですが (笑))
今回は高さ150mのコースでしたが、上がってみると、想像していたより高い!上空では船のエンジン音も聞こえなくなり、静かなことに驚きます。遠くにダイアモンドヘッドの全景、丸い水平線、ホノルルの高層ホテル群や白い砂浜を遠望し、風の音だけを聞きながらの念願の空中散歩は最高でした。
お約束で最後に水に落とされ、皆とハイタッチしながら寄港。
また、陽気なドライバーさんのマシンガントークを聞きながらのホテルまでの帰り道も楽しく、大満足な体験ができました。
TOTALではホテルでのピックアップから帰るまで、2時間程度になりますので、少しでも時間が空けられる方は、ぜひ一度お試しください。

It was my first experience with parasailing. The scenery was, of course, beautiful, and I enjoyed it throughout the cruise. Even though I took motion sickness medication, I started to feel a bit nauseous towards the end, so I think it's best for those who are anxious to definitely take the medication beforehand. For those traveling to Hawaii, it's an easy activity to participate in, and I would recommend it to friends who are interested in parasailing. One thing that I found a bit unsatisfactory was that the price was the same even without transportation. They also firmly requested a tip in broken Japanese.

It was my first time, but I was able to ride the waves! Everyone was very kind and taught us well. We were divided into two groups, with one teacher who was very attentive (possibly a teacher for smaller classes) and another who encouraged us to practice more. I ended up with the practice-oriented teacher, so I was able to ride the waves many times. However, it really requires a lot of stamina, so it's best to be prepared. I got tired halfway through.
Also, the next day, you will definitely feel quite sore! But I’m glad I did it.
As a note, it's better to eat lightly before surfing. My husband ate too much for breakfast and ended up feeling sick, so he could only ride the waves twice and spent most of the time watching from the beach (laughs).

It was amazing!!
Last year, I went to Hawaii on a package tour from a travel company and signed up for a one-hour horseback riding and a trip to Secret Island through their optional tours. The horseback riding was so good that I was determined to take the two-hour course next time, which is why I signed up this time.
This time, I opted for the two-hour horseback riding without transportation, and I drove there with a rental car. I booked the 9:30 session, and after confirming my payment and schedule, the voucher from Veltra stated that check-in was at 8:30. So, I left the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Waikiki around 7:15 and arrived at the Kualoa Ranch parking lot at 8:15. The traffic around Waikiki was heavy, and I was worried about whether I would arrive on time, but once I got closer to the mountains, the traffic suddenly eased up, and the road was straightforward.
I arrived at 8:15 and went to the ticket counter for check-in, but there was a long line! I realized why the voucher stated to check in at 8:30, even though I had booked the 9:30 session!
After presenting my voucher and completing check-in, a staff member called over a Japanese staff member, who provided a brief explanation and told us to go to the horseback riding reception 15 minutes before our session.
Even while waiting around the reception area, there was no announcement from the staff when the time came! So, it’s essential to approach them for check-in 15 minutes early! If you just wait quietly, you might miss your reserved time.
I was told that I could only bring a camera or a phone. Water was not allowed! However, after other activities, there was one person who left their water bottle and towel on a shelf during check-in.
The Japanese staff member advised us to leave all valuables and bags in a locker or in the rental car.
The helmets smelled quite bad, probably because they weren’t washed (laughs). Therefore, if you don’t want to wear it directly on your head, I recommend wearing a cap first before putting on the helmet! I learned this from my last visit and did it this time.
This time, there were a total of six participants, including us, in three couples. One English-speaking staff member accompanied us, but they mostly stayed at the back, so I was at the front. I was quite anxious and scared at first (laughs).
The horses go on their own, but there were moments when the staff was on their phones or when I couldn’t see the front at a turn, and my horse occasionally went the wrong way (laughs). The staff would come from behind, deliberately get close to my horse, scold it, and redirect it, but sometimes the horse would get startled and speed up or make sudden turns, which was really scary! (laughs) But once I got used to it, it became a fun accident.
The scenery was breathtaking. I think it’s an experience you can’t have in Japan.
I saw many reviews saying that the two-hour course would make your butt hurt, and I found that to be true! It suddenly started to hurt in the second half (laughs).
I think it was because I was tense and anxious in the first half, so adrenaline was pumping, but once I got used to it, the pain hit me suddenly (laughs).
After horseback riding, we had lunch at the hamburger place inside Kualoa Ranch.
There were plenty of chairs and tables, and outside there was a free water station with cups. We enjoyed our meal while looking at the ocean, and the taste was fantastic!
This is an activity I definitely want to participate in again next time! (^O^)
最高でした!!
去年、旅行会社のパッケージツアーでハワイに行き、同社のオプショナルツアーで乗馬1時間とシークレットアイランドに申し込みました。
その時の乗馬がとても良く、次回は2時間コースを絶対と思っており今回申し込みました。
今回は2時間乗馬を送迎無しの単品で、レンタカーで行きました。9:30からの回を申し込み、入金&予定確定後のベルトラからのバウチャーにはチェックインには8:30と記載がありましたのでワイキキのハイアットリージェンシーホテルを7:15ごろ出発し、8:15にクアロアランチ駐車場に着いてました。
ワイキキあたりは車が混んでいて、時間通りにちゃんと着くのか?と焦りましたが、山側に差し掛かってからは急に車も少なく、ずっと道なり一本道だったので分かりやすかったです。
8:15に着き、チェックインのためチケットカウンターに行きましたが、すごく並んでいました!9:30の回に予約したのに、バウチャーには8:30チェックインとなっていた意味がよく分かりました!
バウチャーを提示してチェックインを済ませると窓口のスタッフの人が日本人スタッフの方に声をかけ呼んでくれて、日本人スタッフの方から簡単な案内と15分前には乗馬の受付に行ってくださいと言われました。
受付周辺いたりしても、時間になってもスタッフの方からは声かけはありません!
なので15分前に必ず、自分からチェックインの為に声を掛けることが必要です!!黙って待っているだけでは、予約した時間の回に参加できなくなります。
持ち物はカメラか携帯のみと言われました。水もNGです!
他のアクティビティ後で、もしそのまま持って行ってしまっても水のボトルとタオル程度ならチェックインの時に棚に置かせてもらってる方も1人いました。
事前に先程の日本人のスタッフの方から、貴重品やバッグなどはすべて、ロッカーかレンタカーへ置いてくるように言われました。
ヘルメットは、洗ってないせいか、かなり臭います(笑)そのため、直接頭にかぶりたくない場合は必ずキャップを被ってから上にヘルメットを装着することをおすすめします!
前回の時に学び、今回はそうしました。
今回は私達を含め、計3組のカップルで6人での参加でした。
英語スタッフの方が1人同行してくれるのですが、基本一番後ろを行くので、私が一番先頭でした。最初はかなり不安で怖かったです(笑)
馬が勝手に行ってくれるのですが、スタッフさんが携帯を触ってたり、曲がり道で先頭が見えなくなってしまうタイミングに限って、私の馬がたまに道を間違えて違う道に進んでしまうことがありました(笑)
スタッフさんが後ろからやってきて、自分の馬をわざと近づけて叱りながら私の馬の方向を変えてくれるのですが、その時馬がびっくりしてたまに早足になったり、急な方向転換をして本当に怖かったです!(笑)でもそれも慣れてくると楽しいアクシデントでした。
景色は最高。日本では味わえない経験だとおもいます。
口コミで、2時間コースはお尻が痛くなると、たくさん見かけたのですが、後半に入ると急にお尻が痛くなります(笑)
おそらく前半は緊張と不安でアドレナリンが出てるからだと思いますが、慣れてきたあたりから急に痛くなります(笑)
乗馬を終えて、クアロアランチの中のハンバーガー屋さんで昼食をとりました。
椅子とテーブルもたくさんあり、外に無料の給水機とコップもあり、海を眺めながら食べましたが味も最高でした!
次回も必ず参加したいアクティビティでした!(^O^)

Unfortunately, when I went, it was high tide, so I couldn't see the sandbar and the water level was up to my waist, but it was still incredibly beautiful and moving! When I went snorkeling around the coral reef, we were lucky enough to have a sea turtle come close to us, and we were able to swim together very closely! The staff were also great at creating a fun atmosphere, and on the way back, they played the ukulele and sang for us, making it a truly wonderful memory! I want to go again!
残念ながら私が行った時は満潮でサンドバー見れず腰くらいまで水位がありましたが、それでもとってもきれいで感動しました!
サンゴ礁の周りをシュノーケリングした時も、運良く私達の近くにウミガメが来てくれてとっても近くで一緒に泳ぐことができました!スタッフさん達も盛り上げ上手で帰りは船でウクレレ弾きながら歌ってくれたり、最高に素敵な思い出になりましたっ!また行きたいです!

At first, I had low expectations, but the entertainment was of very high quality and I really enjoyed it. One downside was that the spacing between the tables in the VIP section was narrow; I would have liked a bit more room.
最初はあり期待をしていませんでしたがエンターテイメントしてクオリティが非常に高く楽しめました。ちょっと残念だったのがVIP席のテーブル間隔が狭かった事、もう少し隙間がほしかった。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We appreciate your valuable feedback. We would like to work on improvements as a team for future challenges. We sincerely look forward to your visit again when you come to Hawaii.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。貴重なご意見、有難うございます。今後の課題として、スタッフ全員で改善に取り組みたいと思います。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。

I had a great time with a small group. The explanation on how to use the snorkel was thorough, and I didn't encounter any difficulties along the way. I was also satisfied to see turtles up close.
少人数で非常に楽しめました。シュノーケルの使い方の説明も丁寧で途中で困ることもありませんでした。
近くでカメを見ることもでき満足です。
Dear Mr. Hono, thank you for joining the Blue Hawaii Divers tour. I'm glad to hear that you were very satisfied.
On that day, we encountered our first turtle at Keyhole shortly after we started swimming, and a 10-year-old child who participated in the tour found another turtle hiding between the rocks at Sandman's Patch, which was a lot of fun!
I hope you both will consider repeating the tour when you come back to Hawaii. I look forward to seeing you again.
Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
ホヌさん様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。とてもご満足していただけたようで私も嬉しいです。
この日は泳ぎ始めてすぐにキーホールで1匹目のカメさんに遭遇し、またサンドマンズパッチでは岩と岩の間に隠れているようなカメさんをツアーに参加してくれていた10歳のお子様が見つけてくれたりと、とても楽しかったですね!是非またハワイにお越しの際にはお二人でツアーにリピートしていただければと思います。
またお会いできるのをお待ちしております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

The zip line experience was amazing. I had a great time. Although there was no Japanese support, I managed to get by. I was a bit worried since all the explanations were in English and I could only understand about one-third of it, but the staff kindly provided some words in Japanese and used gestures to help me navigate the course.
First, we put on the harness and helmet (they teach you properly) and practiced by sliding down a practice zip line. After that, we took a buggy to the course, which started at a pretty high point. The view was absolutely stunning, which was already impressive. The course gradually increased in difficulty from beginner to more challenging (the distance and steepness became greater, but as I got used to it, it became even more enjoyable), and finally, we reached what is said to be the longest zip line at 830 meters. I heard it was the longest in America (though my understanding of English is less than one-third).
I was able to enjoy the ride with a bit of ease, being able to look around. At the end, I was told to try various tricks (the staff demonstrated how to do it), so I attempted to go backwards and upside down. I highly recommend this to everyone.
Along the course, there were spots to learn about history, hydrate, and eat bananas and macadamia nuts. It was a zip line experience where you could climb and descend on your own while enjoying nature. It seems that this activity hasn't spread much among Japanese people yet, as I didn't see many others; there was only one other group. My team even included a foreigner who was about 70 years old, so I think it's something that people of various ages can enjoy.
ジップライン最高です良い体験をしました。
日本語対応無いですが、何とかできます。
説明がすべて英語で普通会話の説明なのでどうなるかと思いました(1/3位しか分からなかった)が、スタッフが親切に日本人には単語だけ言ってくれたり、身ぶり手ぶりで教えてくれたのでコースを回って来られました。
最初にハーネスとヘルメットを装着(ちゃんと教えてくれます)して練習ジップラインを実際にはすべり下りる。
その後、バギーでコースへ出発、結構登った所が出発点です。景色がすっごく良いです。これだけで感動。初級向けから徐々に難しくなって(距離や斜度が急になってきますが、慣れて来てもっと楽しくなってくる)遂に830mあるそうですが最長のジップラインに来ます。アメリカで1番長いと聴こえました(私の1/3以下の英語理解ですが)。ちょっと余裕で(周りが見られるようになる)楽しく降りることができました。
最後はいろいろアレンジしろと言われ(スタッフが演技して降りるので分かります)背面、逆さまに挑戦しました。皆さんにもオススメします。
コースの途中には歴史や水分補給、バナナ、マカデミアの食べるところもあり、自力でロープを登ったり、降りたり、自然を満喫しながらのジップラインです。
まだあまり日本人には広がってないのか余り見かけませんでした、ほかのチームでも1組くらいしか入ってなかった。わたしのチームには70歳くらいの外人さんも入っていたので、結構年いっても出来るかと思いました。

Thank you very much for joining our tour for the second time, Chapi! During low tide, the water clarity improves, allowing us to see the fish beautifully! It was great that you finally got to meet a turtle towards the end of the tour. You all swam quite far out with the turtle, and everyone did an amazing job swimming until the very end. You were all very skilled! I hope to see you both again for a third visit when you come back to Hawaii. Thank you again for joining us. Mahalo!!
chapi様、この度は2回目のリピートでツアーにお越しいただき、本当にありがとうございます。引き潮の時は透明度も上がりますので、とてもお魚達が綺麗に見えるんですよ!ツアー最後の方では念願のカメさんにも会えて良かったですね。カメさんと一緒に結構沖まで泳いでしまいましたが、皆様本当に最後まで頑張って泳いでくださいました。お上手でしたよ!是非またハワイにお越しの際には、3回目のリピートでお二人にお会いできればいいなあと思っております。
本当にお越しいただきありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
