I showed my voucher at the booth as instructed, but was told it was the wrong place and that I needed to go to the Sheraton. When I went to the Sheraton, there was no reception area. When I returned, I saw the same person from earlier with the boat in the photo, so I asked again and was told to wait there. However, while I was left waiting, more and more people boarded the boat, and as they were about to close it, I asked again and was told to hurry up. During the tour, everything was lively in English, but the only time I heard Japanese was when they asked for tips at the end. It was the worst experience.

After being picked up, I signed a waiver in the car. The driver didn't seem to understand Japanese, but since the waiver was in Japanese, there were no issues. It took about 10 minutes by car from the Ala Moana Hotel to arrive. We joined three groups that had arrived earlier, and we quickly boarded the boat while still carrying our luggage. Out of the three groups, two were Japanese and one was from overseas. There are no lockers on the boat, but I don't think it's a concern.
About 10 minutes after departure, we arrived at the parasailing point, where each group was fitted with harnesses to start parasailing. I don't think the instructors understood Japanese, but they explained the essentials in Japanese, so there was no inconvenience due to the language barrier. Before taking off, they asked in Japanese whether we wanted to purchase photos or do a "japon" (splash). Some people chose to buy photos, but no one opted for the "japon." Even without doing the "japon," they skillfully controlled the experience so that our feet could dip into the water.
I chose the 150-meter option, but since we were above water, I didn't feel any fear of heights, and the weather was great, allowing us to enjoy the stunning views. When getting off the boat, they managed it well, making it easy to disembark. Those waiting on the boat welcomed us with applause, and the instructors helped create a lively atmosphere.
Although I chose the 150-meter option, I couldn't compare it to other heights, so I might not have felt much difference in height. The instructors didn't provide any explanations about the height either. If you don't do the "japon," you generally won't get wet, but there might be splashes while moving on the boat, so it might be a good idea to prepare a towel if you're concerned.
Before disembarking, we paid tips. We each paid $10. After the tour, they took us back to the hotel where we were picked up. We participated in the 8 AM start and were back at the hotel around 9:30 AM, making it easy to plan our next activities. I also changed the pickup location specified at the time of booking through VELTRA customer service. I inquired in Japanese via email, and they responded promptly, which was great. Thank you very much.
ピックアックしてもらったら車内で誓約書にサインします。ドライバーさんは日本語は通じなさそうでしたが誓約書も日本語ですし問題ありませんでした。
アラモアナホテルから車で10分くらいで到着です。先に到着されていた3組の方々と合流し、荷物は持ったまま早速乗船します。3組の方の内2組は日本人で1組は海外の方でした。船にロッカーはないですが心配ないと思います。
出航して10分くらいでパラセイリングのポイントに到着し、そこから各組みごとにハーネスを着けてもらいパラセイリングスタートです。インストラクターの方にも日本語は通じないと思いますが最低限のことはちゃんと日本語で説明してくれますし、日本語が通じなくて不自由することもまったくありませんでした。
飛び立つ前に写真を購入するかジャポンするか日本語で聞いてくれます。写真を購入する方はいましたがジャポンする方はいませんでした。ジャポンしなくても足だけ水につかるように上手くコントロールしてくれたりもします。
150メートルを選択しましたが水上なので高い場所にいるという恐怖感はなく、天気も良かったので最高の景色が楽しめました。船に降りるときも上手くコントロールしてくれ簡単に降りられます。船上で待っていた方も拍手で迎えていただきインストラクター含めて盛り上げてくれます。
150メートルを選択しましたが他の高さと比較ができないので高さによる違いはあまり体感できないかも知れないです。インストラクターからも高さについての説明はありませんでした。
ジャポンしなければ基本的に水に濡れることはないですが船で移動中に水しぶきがかかるので気になるかたはタオルなど準備した方がいいかもしれません。
降船前にチップを払い終了です。私たちは1人10ドル払いました。
終了後はすぐにピックアップしたホテルに送ってくれます。8時スタートに参加して9時半頃にはホテルにいるのでその後の予定も立てやすくおすすめのツアーです。
また予約時に指定されたピックアップ場所をVELTRAカスタマーサービスを通じて変更してもらいました。メールで日本語による問い合わせでしたが早急に対応していただきこの点も良かったです。ありがとうございました。

I was looking forward to West Oahu since it was my first time there. The weather was great, and the clarity of the ocean was amazing. I also visited a mysterious cave for the first time. It was really fun thanks to our guide's friendliness and clear explanations. We had to change locations for snorkeling because there were sharks at the original beach, but the new spot was also very beautiful. The small group created a family-like atmosphere, which was wonderful. Thank you, Akima, for your help; I would love to join again when I visit Oahu. Thank you very much. Aloha.

It felt like we were taken on a drive while enjoying nature and receiving lectures on Hawaiian language, as well as listening to a wide range of guides about the myths of Hawaii and the formation of nature. If you're mainly considering snorkeling, you might find it a bit lacking. On the day of our trip, we changed locations because sharks were spotted at the originally planned snorkeling spot, and we ended up in an area with slightly stronger waves. There was a chance we might see dolphins, but due to the change in location, we didn't encounter any dolphins, turtles, or mantas. The instructor kept us entertained in various ways.
自然を満喫しながら、ハワイ語のレクチャー等も受けつつ、ハワイに伝わる神話、自然の成り立ちなど多岐にわたるガイドを聞きながらドライブに連れて行って頂いたと言う感じです。シュノーケリングを主に考えると物足りないと思います。
当日はシュノーケリングの当初予定のスポットで鮫が見られたと言うことで別の場所に変更になり、波が少し強めの所になりました。
もしかしたらイルカにも会えるかもと言うキャッチもありましたが、場所の変更もあったのでイルカや亀やマンタには会えませんでした。
インストラクターの方は色々と楽しませて下さいました。
Thank you for the review.
The chances of seeing dolphins are higher at the place we visited that day. We have indeed seen manta rays before, but they are quite rare (three times in two years at the usual spot, and three times in two years at the current location). Every time you enter the ocean, you might see something different, but of course, there are times when nothing appears. Since these are wild animals, it's hard to predict. Turtles also may not be present at the usual spot, but we have seen five during a tour at that location.
So please join us again if you have the opportunity! Maybe something will appear next time?!
Aloha!
Akima

イルカはあの日に行ったところのほうが確率は上がります。マンタは確かに見れたこともありますが、かなりレアです。(いつもの場所で2年で3回、今回の場所で2年に3回)海には入るたびに違うものが見れる代わりに、もちろん何も現れないときもあります。自然の動物なのでなんともかんとも・・ですね。カメもいつもの場所でもいないときはいませんし、あの場所でツアー中に5匹でたこともあります。
なのでまた機会があればご参加ください! 今度は何か現れるかも?!

I was able to quickly ascend to the sky and enjoy the best views! Since the water only reached my shins, I didn't need to change clothes, and it wasn't physically demanding, so it was easy! Since it's over the ocean, it's not scary at all, and I think even those with a fear of heights can manage it. However, the weather in Hawaii can change quickly, so it's better to have something to wear, and since you'll be on the boat while others are taking their turns, I recommend taking motion sickness medication. Haha! In any case, the scenery is amazing, and if you bring a camera, you can take pictures up there, making for great memories!
上空まで一気に上がり、最高の景色が楽しめました!
膝下が濡れる程度なので、特別着替えもいらないし、体力使うわけでもないので楽でした!

The driver for the pickup was English-speaking and very friendly, making the ride enjoyable. Once we arrived at the port, there was a female staff member who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. Parasailing was incredibly refreshing! The captain of the boat was very skilled at maneuvering, and the crew took many wonderful photos with great creativity. The photos are available for an additional fee, but I think $30 for the SD card is quite reasonable. There are no changing facilities, so you'll have to return wet, so it's best to bring a towel to cover the car seat.

We participated as a couple in our 20s. Since we were staying at a hotel near the boat departure point, we walked there in our swimsuits. This time, we chose the 120-meter option. First, we received an explanation from a staff member who spoke Japanese before boarding the boat that came to pick us up. The crew seemed very accustomed to Japanese people, even making jokes in Japanese. Thanks to that, we had a great time during the transfer and while others were flying. Additionally, if you wish, they will take photos with a camera. You can check the content, and if you like it, they will sell you an SD card. We had nearly 70 photos taken. Since the boat was rocking, some photos were slightly out of focus, but we decided to purchase them right away! By the way, my wife has a fear of heights, but she said it was less scary than she expected and she had fun.

We’ve been on snorkeling cruises in the past (some out of Waianae Boat Harbor) but never with this company. We visit Hawaii often (my wife was born and raised in the islands) we view island activities with a critical eye. This was a super dolphin/snorkel trip. The cruise is on a smaller boat, which has the advantage of offering a smaller group of people, a more intimate experience, and a little more adventurous ride - I like all three. Staff on these boats are there to 1. Offer safety 2. Offer service and 3. Offer fun and adventure. The Dolphin’s and You staff were excellent on all counts. I’ve seen the “fun” part on other boats get a little smarmy, but the staff on this boat really did a great job of encouraging people to participate and enjoy themselves without being overly “slick” or pushy. They also had some talented people who shared music I found enjoyable.
I take my own pictures with underwater stills and video. The videographer/photographer on the trip did a super job and was kind enough to show me some great shots while still attending to everyone on board. I wish I could say that about all the snorkeling/watching tours we’ve been on.
Overall I’d say this was a really good trip - for anyone - experienced or novice. Tips: If you have motion sickness, or aren’t sure if you have motion sickness, take dramamine. Do it. Take sunscreen - Use it. If you’re not familiar with photography (above and below water) leave your gear at home. Experience the trip and allow the professional the ship provides offer you some of the best shots you’ll ever see - most likely better images than you can take yourself. Fooling with gear and worrying about taking pictures, will detract from the memories you can make just being in the water and seeing the amazing things the crew will show you.
There are lifetime memories you can take away from a half-day trip like this. It might *seem* pricey to some, but I assure you that it is worth every cent and you’ll be ready for more.
Aloha Bruce! Thank you so much for your sincere 5-Star review.
We so appreciate you taking the time to offer this genuine feedback and to provide tips for other guests. We agree with your suggestions on all counts! Coming from a guest who has been on many tours and a photographer, this review means a lot. We invite you to come and try out our waterfall hike tour Nature and You or our circle-island tour Island and You on one of your trips back to the island, as well!

We participated as a couple. After arriving in Hawaii, we struggled with the time difference and contacted them to see if we could change our schedule from morning to afternoon. Fortunately, we were able to move it to the following afternoon. They were flexible and accommodating, which we greatly appreciated.
Upon meeting Chieko, whose reliable yet gentle demeanor put us at ease, we were able to express our concerns right away, and she was very considerate throughout. After joining Dan and a family from Seattle, we received excellent support and were able to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind.
We were thrilled to see a honu and even downloaded photos from Facebook. I took motion sickness medication, but my husband ended up feeling seasick, and I apologize for any concern that caused. However, we had a wonderful time! Thank you!

I've participated in the afternoon tour several times, but it seemed like the water level was lower before... This time, while walking to the sandbar, the water level reached about my mother's chest (she's 152 cm tall)... It was a bit disappointing, but there were very friendly sea turtles swimming around the boat, and the lunch was delicious. The waves were a bit high this time, so it looked tough to swim back, so I didn't go snorkeling and instead swam with the sea turtles around the boat.
何回か午後のツアーに参加してますが、以前のほうが水位は低かったような・・・。今回はサンドバーにたどり着くまで歩いてる際、母(身長152cm)の胸あたりまで水位が・・・。ちょっと残念でしたが、ボートの周りにとてもフレンドリーなウミガメ泳いでいたし、ランチもおいしかったです。
今回波が高めで泳いで帰ってくるのがつらそうだったので私はシュノーケリングには行かず、ボートの周りでウミガメと泳いでました。

My husband and I took our first trip to Hawai'i (O'ahu) and decided to take this Grand Circle Island tour so we could get a quick summary of some of the many sites to see and explore later on, when we have more time. Our tour guide, Lei-Hua, was definitely a local and she was able to share her vast personal knowledge and experiences of O'ahu with our group, which helped to make it even more special for us! Not just some regular tour guide that points out stuff and tells you what it is. Lei added her own personal touch to all the landmarks and then some!
I'm not sure if folks can specifically request their tour guide, but if you take this tour and it happens to be Lei-Hua, then you are in for a treat!

This adventure was more than what we expected. We first boarded a boat that took us out to the submarine. We entered a small port hatch that lowered us into a surprisingly large submarine that held over 63 individuals. We dove to a depth of over 112 feet and saw all manor of marine life around sunken ships and airplanes. We experienced fish and sea turtles nestled among the wreckage along with eels along the coral. To say this was a unique experience was an understatement. How often do you get to go 100+ feet under water and see marine life in their natural inhabitant?

We gathered at the hotel entrance at 5:55 AM. Since it was June, which is typically a low season, there were about 20 participants, which the guide mentioned was about half the usual number. I felt that having a smaller group made the day more enjoyable.
We traveled by bus to the port (about an hour), and during that time, the guide's stories and videos were so interesting that there was no time to sleep. After waiting for about 15 minutes upon arrival at the port, we boarded the boat. The crew members were introduced, and we set off.
On this day, perhaps due to the strong winds, the waves were high, and the boat rocked quite a bit, causing a few people to feel unwell. About 20 minutes after departing, we had our first encounter with dolphins. We spotted a pod about 10 meters ahead, so we put on our goggles and fins and jumped in together. Unfortunately, during the first jump, the dolphins swam away, so we couldn't swim with them.
We returned to the boat and searched for another pod. About 15 minutes later, we found another group and jumped in again. This time, we successfully located the pod, and around 10 dolphins swam right beneath me. It was an unprecedented experience, and it felt truly moving to be swimming alongside them. We all shared our joy as we returned to the boat.
Next was snorkeling in search of sea turtles. After about a 20-minute boat ride, we jumped in at a spot where sea turtles are easy to find. Within just a few minutes, we spotted a turtle and observed it from a distance. After that, a professional photographer took various poses of us. We could purchase all the photos from the professional photographer on the way back (data for $60, USB for $65).
After returning to the boat, we had almost free time. We could eat the cheeseburgers made by the captain, snack on chips, do stand-up paddleboarding, or kayak. Most people chose to relax and eat on the boat.
Once everything was finished, we danced hula on the boat while heading back to the port. After arriving at the port, we took a short break before boarding the bus back to Waikiki. Most people were asleep on the bus.
The encounter rate with dolphins is said to be 90%, but we were fortunate to encounter them quickly, so I didn't feel the discomfort of the boat ride too much and was able to have a valuable experience.
5時55分にホテルの入り口に集合でした。
6月ということもあり、閑散期なのか、参加者は20名程度で、ガイドさん曰く、いつもの半分くらいの人数だったようです。1日を通じて少人数のほうが過ごしやすいと感じました。
みんなでバスで港へ移動(約1時間)し、その間もガイドさんのお話や映像が面白いので、寝る暇はありません。
港に着いてから15分くらい待機して、船に乗り込みます。クルーメンバーが紹介されて出発です。
この日は風が強いせいか波が高く、船はかなり揺れたので、体調が悪くなってしまうひとも2.3人いました。
船を出して20分くらいで1回目のイルカとの遭遇でした。10メートルくらい先にイルカの群れが見えたので、ゴーグルやフィンを付けてみんなで飛び込んで群れの方に向かいます。1回目の飛び込みではイルカの群れが逃げてしまったので、実際に一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでした。
船に戻って、また群れを探し、15分後くらいにまた群れを発見し飛び込みました。今度はうまく群れを見つけ、自分の泳ぐ真下を10頭くらいのイルカが泳いで通りました。今までにない体験で、ほんとに一緒に泳いでいるようで感動的な瞬間でした。みんなで喜びを分かち合いながら船に戻ります。
次はウミガメ探しのシュノーケリングです。20分くらい船で移動して、ウミガメの見つけやすいポイントでみんなで飛び込みます。飛び込んで、3分もしないうちにウミガメを見つけ、少し遠くから眺めます。その後、プロのカメラマンの方がいろいろなポーズで写真を撮ってくれます。プロのカメラマンの写真はは帰りに全て購入することができます。(データは60ドル、USBは65ドル)
みんなで船に戻った後はほぼ自由時間でした。船長が作るチーズバーガーを食べるもよし、チップスを食べるもよし、スタンディングパドルをするもよし、カヌーを漕ぐもよし、基本的には船上で食事をして休む人が多かったです。
すべてが終わって船でフラダンスを踊りながら港へ帰ります。
港へ着いてからは少し休憩してバスに乗り込み、ワイキキへ戻ります。バスの中では、ほとんどの方が眠っていました。
イルカとの遭遇率は90パーセントらしいですが、本当にすぐイルカとの遭遇できたので、船のつらさもそこまで感じずに、貴重な体験をすることができました。

It was unfortunately rainy and very windy, but I flew 150 meters! The guide was very friendly and provided a lot of laughs!
150 meters was surprisingly high, and I really got to experience the feeling of being a bird!
Next time, I hope for sunny weather and definitely want to challenge myself again!
あいにくの雨と強風でしたが150m飛んで来ました。ガイドさんがとても気さくな方で沢山笑いを提供してくれました!
150mは思いの外高く、鳥の気分をしっかり味わえます!
次は晴れることを願って、是非また挑戦したいと思います!

This was the BEST experience I’ve had. I feel the reason my husband and I could enjoy this experience was down to the crew. Safety was an absolute given, with our life vests fitted before we left the harbour. We were out at ease with humorous banter and a super friendly atmosphere.
I like this event so much...I went back for a second time.
The scenery of Waikiki from paragliding was spectacular, and the photos taken of us are going to be treasured for a life time.

The sandbar was not the completely sandy beach I imagined, but rather a beautiful shallow area that reaches about the knees of an adult. Even children could stand easily, and since there were no waves, they were able to practice swimming and seemed to be having a lot of fun. Tours that include lunch on the boat often don't offer great meals, but this tour provided freshly grilled hamburgers. There are also paid options for wine and beer, making it a tour that both adults and children can enjoy. I would love to repeat this experience next time.
サンドバーは想像とは違って完全な砂浜ではなく大人の膝下くらいの美しい浅瀬が広がる場所でした。子供でも足がつくうえに波がないので泳ぎの練習ができとても楽しそうにしていました。船上での昼食付きのツアーは大した食事がでない事が多いですがこちらのツアーでは焼きたてのハンバーガーが食べられます。有料ですがワインやビールもあり大人も子供も楽しめるツアーだと思います。また次回リピートしたいです。

It was written that pregnant women are welcome, so I participated! It was a bit cloudy and cold, so I hesitated to go into the sea, but the guide encouraged me, and I went in for the last part! They took a lot of photos, and it became the best memory! I was able to see a sea turtle, and the hamburger was delicious, so I'm glad I participated!
妊婦参加OKと書かれていたので、参加させていただきました!少し曇っていて寒かったので、海に入るのは迷っていましたが、ガイドの方に誘っていただき、最後の方だけ入りました!写真もたくさん撮っていただき、最高の思い出になりました!
ウミガメに会うこともできて、ハンバーガーもおいしくて、参加してよかったです!

We participated as a couple, and it was really fun. This might be the best tour we've been on so far. The captain was lively and made it enjoyable, and there were young people from abroad, so we were able to take photos together, creating great memories.
夫婦で参加しました、とても楽しかったです
今まで行ったツアーで一番かな。キャプテンもノリノリで楽しかったです、外国の若者もいて一緒に写真も撮れていい思い出になりました。

There were young Japanese women and men in the same group, and I wondered if they even drive in Japan because they were driving so slowly! They could only go about 4 to 5 kilometers per hour. During the briefing, they said that those who couldn't drive should refrain from participating! Right after we started, another staff member came and began leading the slow couple in front of us. The people following us sped off with other staff. When we tried to keep up, we were stopped because we were treated the same as the other Japanese participants. However, the speed never increased. It felt like we were only going as fast as walking. We didn't experience the joy of driving a four-wheeler at all. I was looking forward to it, but it was the worst. I want my money back.
同じグループに日本人の若い女性と男性がいたのですが、日本でも運転してないのか?と思うぐらい運転が遅い!4~5キロぐらいしか出せない。
説明時に、運転が無理と思われる方はやめていただきますと言っていたのに!
走り出してすぐに、他のスタッフが来てその遅いカップルの前に入って引率しはじめました。
私たちの後続の人たちは、他のスタッフとスピードを上げて出ていきました。私たちもそれについて行こうとすると止められました。同じ日本人ということで同じにされました。
しかし、終始スピードは上がらずです。まるで歩いているような速度しか出せません。
四輪バギーの良さがまったくありませんでした。
楽しみにしていたのに最低。お金おを返してほしいです。

Since it was my first time doing marine sports abroad, I was a bit anxious about how it would go. However, the email guidance after my application was very thorough, and I was able to reach the pickup location without any confusion. Once on the boat, they provided instructions in Japanese, and I was able to fly through the air without any issues! I booked for 130 meters, but I wish I could have experienced 150 meters as well.
初めてのマリンスポーツでかつ海外だったのでどうなる事かと思いましたが、申込み後のメール案内も丁寧で迷う事なくピックアップ場所にたどり着けました。船に乗り込むと日本語でも案内してくれますし、問題なく空を飛ぶ事ができました!130mで予約しましたが、150mも体験したみたいと思いました。

I was able to enjoy horseback riding in a magnificent natural setting that you can't experience in Japan. It was my first time riding, but the horses were well-trained, and there were no particular issues.
日本では体験できないような大自然の中で乗馬を満喫することができました。乗馬自体は初めてでしたが、馬もよく調教されており、特に問題になることはありませんでした。

It was a bit scary, but when I flew high in the sky, I could see Diamond Head and the hotels of Waikiki beautifully! The ocean was a deep blue, and although I couldn't see the sea creatures, it felt amazing being blown by the wind! To have a fun experience, make sure to take motion sickness medication before you give it a try!
ちょっと怖かったけど、空高く飛ぶと、ダイアモンドヘッドやワイキキのホテル街が綺麗に見えました!海は濃く青くDeep Blue で海の生き物たちは、見えませんでしたが、風に吹かれて最高!でした。楽しく体験するために、絶対酔い止めを飲んでからチャレンジしてみてください!
