All Reviews for Lunch & Breakfast Experiences

We participated as a family of five (husband and wife + 8-year-old + 5-year-old + grandmother, 63 years old). I was worried because the children couldn't swim, but it was no problem at all. It happened to be my eldest son's birthday that day, and I was concerned about whether we would see dolphins, but a dolphin came close to my son, and he was overjoyed! After that, we also encountered turtles and beautiful tropical fish. It truly became a wonderful birthday memory. The staff were very kind, and I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises!

ファミリー５人で参加しました。
（夫婦＋８歳＋５歳＋おばあちゃん６３歳）
子供たちが泳げないので不安でしたが全然問題なかったです。ちょうどこの日は長男の誕生日、イルカに逢えるか心配でしたが長男の近くまでイルカが来てくれて大喜びでした！
その後に亀やきれいな熱帯魚にも逢えました。本当に良い誕生日の思い出になりました。スタッフの皆さんもとっても親切でまた機会があったら参加したいです！

I participated with a friend on July 19. It was my first time snorkeling and swimming with dolphins, so I was a bit anxious, but it was incredibly fun.

On the day, we weren't able to see many dolphins, but I was really happy that the staff worked hard to find spots where we could see them. Since they are wild dolphins, it's not guaranteed that you'll see them, but we were satisfied to see at least a few.

The hamburgers they grilled on the boat were also really delicious, and it became a wonderful memory. Moreover, everyone on the staff, including Yuriko, was truly kind, and we had a great time.

Thank you very much. I would definitely love to participate again.

7/19に友人と二人で参加しました。私はシュノーケルもイルカと泳ぐのも初めてだったので、少々不安もありましたが、すごーーーく楽しかったです。
当日はあまりイルカを見る事ができなかったのですが、私たちにイルカを見せてくれようとスタッフの皆さんが一生懸命になってイルカのいるスポットを探してくれたのがとても嬉しかったです。
野生のイルカなので必ずしも会えるとは限らないのですが、結果的に少しでも見れて私たちは満足です。
船の上で焼いてくれたハンバーガーもすごく美味しくて、本当によい思い出になりました。それにユリコさんをはじめスタッフの皆さんも本当によい方ばかりでとっても楽しかったです。
どうもありがとうございました。また是非参加させてもらいたいです。

I participated with a close friend. Since it was both of our first time in Hawaii, we were looking for activities where we could see dolphins, but I was a bit worried because I wasn't confident in my swimming skills. The Japanese guide, Keiko, and the local staff were all very cheerful and kind. This time, based on the captain's decision, we descended the stairs of a catamaran and followed a pod of dolphins while holding onto a rope. I thought I wouldn't be able to chase the dolphins while snorkeling, so this was an unexpected and wonderful method! I heard that now, to protect baby dolphins, they swim fast and it's hard to keep up with them while snorkeling. I was so impressed by the staff who tried to show us the dolphins up close! There were plenty of dolphins, and it was a wonderful time. At the snorkeling spot, there were also turtles, and everyone was really enjoying themselves. The hamburgers were very delicious, and the hula dance lesson was fun. I would love to participate again when I go back to Hawaii.

仲良しの友だちとふたりで参加しました。
ふたりとも初ハワイだったのでイルカに会えるアクティヴィティを探していたんですが、泳ぎに自信がない私は少々心配もありました。
日本人ガイドのkeikoさんもロコのスタッフさんもとっても朗らかな良い方ばかりでしたし、今回は船長さんの判断でカタマランという船の階段に降り、ロープにつかまったままイルカの群れを追って見る方法でした。私はシュノーケルでイルカを追うのはできないなぁ…と思っていたので願ってもいない方法でした！今は赤ちゃんイルカを守るためにスピードが速くなかなかスノーケリングでは追いつけないそうです。なんとか近くで見せてくれようと考えてくださったスタッフに感激！イルカの数もいっぱいで素敵な時間でした。
スノーケルのポイントでは亀もいてみんな本当に楽しんでいました。
ハンバーガーもとってもおいしかったし、フラダンスレッスンもおもしろかったです。
またハワイに行ったら参加したいです。

This was an excellent tour and well worth the money! Our bus driver/tour guide was outstanding! Garfield was very knowledgeable with the sites and history of both the city tour as well as being our guide on the Uss Missouri. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Hawaii.

We all had a great time and I cannot say enough on how wonderful all the crew members are! They were all very attentive and helpful as well. My sister had never been snorkeling before and they had her swimming around and looking at fish in in no time. The area is also beautiful too and how cool was it to hang out on the sand bar in the middle of the bay?! Great time!

lots of fun, lots of fish, just a great time, would do it again

My family & I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. My husband is a HUGE history buff, my son - age 15 even enjoyed it, along with my parents (Around 60 yrs. old) and my husband & myself (late 30's) Therefore, you can see that it was interesting for all ages. It was a very spooky feeling standing on the Arizona Memorial, looking down at the sunken ship, seeing the oil still leaking into the water, and reading all of the names of those who perished that awful, fateful day. We also got to meet & take pictures with two of the survivors from that day. They were inside, sitting near the museum signing autographs. One of them was born in Macomb, Illinois, about 50 miles from our hometown of Rockford, so that was very surprising! We had an awesome guided tour aboard the USS Missouri. Took about 90 minutes, we even got to see inside. Saw the bunks where the sailors slept, the control room, radio room, the table where the declaration was signed to end the war, the "mess hall", stood under the g

Hawaii Activities made my first ocean kayaking experience a great one. I'll do it again the first chance I get!

I booked the lunch ride for myself and Daughter in June of 2007. I have to commend the Gunstock Ranch, we had such a wonderful time with our 2 tour guides and saw the beautiful sights of Oahu from the bottom to the top. Were we found seashells on the very top of the mountain and mongoose along the path to get there. The Lunch and the company the tour forward will last us forever until we can get back again to do it all over, I would not hesitate to recommend this extremely enjoyable activity. If you ever need a recommendation please let me know.

I want to comment that the driver, Ben, the guide /bus driver, assigned to our tour was the best. He made our trip enjoyable and informative. Our entire group enjoyed his sense of humor and knowledge of Arizona and Missouri tours. In fact you was our tour guide at the USS Missouri. He knew how to make the maximun use of our time and best place for lunch.

We definitely will come back and will request Ben, if he is still owrking for this company.

Excellent value.

had a great time and it was our first time snorkeling.staff was very helpful and nice. we will go back to capt bob's again.

The purpose of this trip was different, but while browsing the internet, I couldn't help but want to meet dolphins and sea turtles, which made choosing options within my limited time quite difficult.

I had been to Sea Life Park before, and since they offer activities where you can interact and play with dolphins, I thought that might be nice. I also considered scuba diving in the waters of Hawaii since I have diving experience...

I decided on Dolphin & You because, after looking at their website, it seemed like a very eco-friendly tour that was gentle on both people and nature.

It was a great choice!! It felt almost like a waste to go alone. I got to meet dolphins and encountered sea turtles. I didn't realize it at the time, but in the experience DVD I purchased, I discovered a sea turtle snuggling up next to the boat during the final photo session. My camera captured close-ups of the sea turtles and underwater shots of me looking graceful like a mermaid, taken by the accompanying photographer and local boys. I also learned hula while wearing a pareo and enjoyed delicious burgers—everything was perfect.

The most impressive part was the excellent service and thoughtfulness of all the staff. Since it was an early morning trip, we were able to make effective use of our time, and it was a day of complete satisfaction.

Even though the memories of the trip are fading, my passion for dolphins has not cooled down. I absolutely recommend it!

今回の旅の目的は他にあったのですが、ネットを見ているうちに、どうしてもイルカや海亀に会いたくなり、限られた時間でのオプション選びに迷いました。

シーライフパークは前に行ったことがあり、イルカとふれあい、遊べるアクティビティーというのでそれもいいかなとか、ダイビング経験があるので、ハワイの海でのスキューバダイビングにしようかとか・・・

ドルフィン＆ユーに決めたのは、ホームページを見て、とてもエコロジーで人にも自然にも優しいツアーのように思えたからです。

大正解！！
一人参加がもったいないくらい。イルカにも出会えたし、海亀にも遭遇。そのときには気づかなかったけど、購入した体験DVDには最後の記念撮影の船の傍らにしっかり寄り添う海亀ちゃんを発見。持参したカメラには、同行のカメラマンやロコボーイが撮ってくれた、海亀の接写、水中での私の姿が人魚のように華麗に。
パレオをつけてフラも習い、おいしいバーガーもいただき、いうことなし。

一番の感激はスタッフ全員のの対応のよさと、思いやりです。
早朝の便だったので、時間も有効に使え、なにもかも大満足の一日でした。

旅の思いでが薄れるのに、いまだイルカ熱はさめません。絶対おすすめです！

That was great time for my family.
And the driver(guide) was very kind.

Thank you.

My family and I had a wonderful time with the Bob's boat and would recommend this tour to anyone coming to the island of Honolulu. Everyone had a good time since there was something for everyone to do. My grandmother just wanted to chill on the boat, and she did, my mom would wade in teh shallow water and then work on her tan, and my brothers went crazy chasing each other down the sand bar. Me? I had a blast snorkeling at the reef and hope to go back soon!

There are so many snorkeling cruises to choose from, but I am very glad that I chose Captain Bob! It was a breath of fresh air to get out of Waikiki and the beaches and the sky were absolutely breathtaking. The food was grilled fresh and the crew were made sure that all guests were attended too. Really, I just cannot say enough good things about this tour and have been recommending it to all my friends! Now they just need to get to Hawaii lol. Good job!

I couldn't swim with the dolphins. To be honest, wild dolphins move quickly.

You can see dolphins from the boat. They're cute.

I felt it was a bit of an exaggeration, but I'm satisfied.

イルカとは泳げませんでした。
って言うか、野生のイルカは動きが早い。

船からイルカは見ることが出来ます。かわいいです。

少し誇大広告の気もしました。でも満足です。

Lots of fun for everyone. The crew is top-notch and very friendly. The day provides a perfect amount of water time and the lunch was grilled and ready when we got back on the boat. My friends and I decided last minute to go on this tour and it was a last minute decision that was great! If you want to get out of Waikiki for the day (and trust me, you SHOULD!) this is the tour!

This was a really great trip and better snorkeling than Hanauma Bay. The second reef we went to had lots and lots of fish and we didn't have a million people surrounding us. Getting out of Waikiki was a great idea and the water is just beautiful! The sandbar was really fun and I got my butt whooped at water volleyball! A big round of applause the fantastic crew! Thank you and I cannot wait to come again!

the crew was super nice .. location was beautiful ...my sister and i had so much fun!

The guide and his first mates were top notch. It was nice to experience snorkling around the reef with just a few dozen people, especially since it was our first time. Would recommend this to anyone who plans to visit Oahu! Was a great way to spend one of our days on the island. Great value too.

This a very moving experience, having a father who was in the armed services during WWII and mother who worked at Hunters Point, San Francisco. I just found out she was on the USS Missouri to deliver papers just prior it leaving San Francisco on its trip to the Midway for the siging of the peace treaty with the Japanese. It is a history lesson for all, adults and children to know in order not to repeat history. The tour guide was excellent, he had a vast knowledge of history of Pearl Harbor, the Arizona and the other ships lost that fateful day. Being form Aeia, he also had avast knowledge of the Hawaiian history as well. Excellent time.

Date of participation: March 19, 2007 (Monday). We participated as a couple. Gunstock Ranch is about an hour and a half by car from Waikiki, located beyond the Polynesian Cultural Center. The area is lush and green, quite different from the rocky terrain of the Big Island, making it suitable for horseback riding. We gathered at 8:30 in the morning. It was just the two of us participating. After the rain, the greenery and rainbow were beautiful. We signed some documents, learned the basics of horseback riding, and mounted our horses. We proceeded with three horses into the greenery. Along the way, the female guide asked, "RUN?" and when I answered "YES," we started to gallop. The horse I rode was well-trained and very responsive. Since it was a horse that wanted to run, I hardly had to kick it at all. We mostly galloped except for the climbs and descents to the hill and some slippery red dirt areas. The trees on both sides formed an arch, and we moved through it at a comfortable speed. The guide picked guava fruit for us, which was sour and delicious. When we reached the top of the hill, we had a 360-degree view. We could see the ocean as well. The wind felt nice, and the view was amazing. The hour flew by. It was a lot of fun.
P.S. To Alan1: Please create a farm stay tour at this ranch.

参加日: 2007/03/19(月) 夫婦２人で参加しました。
ガンストック牧場はワイキキから車で約１時間半、ポリネシアカルチュアルセンターの先にあります。緑が一面に広がっていて、ハワイ島のゴツゴツした地面とは違い、乗馬に適していました。朝、８時半に集合。参加は私たち夫婦２人のみ。雨上がりで緑と虹がとてもきれいです。書類にサインをし、乗馬の基本を教えてもらい騎乗。緑の中へ３頭で進んでいきます。途中、女性のガイドさんから「ＲＵＮ？」と言われたので「ＹＥＳ」と答えると駆け足開始。乗った馬は良く調教されていてとてもよく言うことを聞きます。走りたがりの馬だったのでほとんど蹴らずにすみました。丘までの上り下りや、赤土むき出しで滑りやすい場所以外はほとんど駆け足です。両側の木がアーチになっていて、その下を心地よいスピードで進みます。ガイドさんがグァバの実を採ってくれます。すっぱくておいしい。丘のてっぺんに上ると、そこからは３６０度の視界が開けます。海も見えます。風も気持ちよく最高の眺めです。あっという間の１時間でした。とても楽しかったです。
追伸：Alan1ちゃんへ　この牧場のファームスティツアーをぜひ作ってください。

This time, we participated as a family of four. We were able to see whales, and as the tour name suggests, we got to swim with dolphins. I was impressed by the staff's service, as they even caught a sea turtle and showed it to us up close. Their effort to make sure we had a good time was evident. My son was thrilled and excited. My wife and daughter suffered from seasickness, but it seems they still enjoyed the fun atmosphere. I want to thank everyone, including the captain. When I signed up, the cost felt a bit high, but after participating, I think it was reasonable for what we experienced.

　今回は家族４人で参加しました。鯨も見れたし、ツァー名どおりイルカと泳ぐことができました。また、ウミガメを捕まえてすぐそばで見せてくれたりと、スタッフのサービスに感激しました。楽しんでもらおうとしている気持ちが伝わってきました。息子は感激して興奮していました。妻と娘は船酔いで悲惨でしたが、それでも楽しい雰囲気は充分味わえたようです。船長さんをはじめ、皆さんにお礼を言いたいです。費用は、申し込むときは少し高額な気がしましたが、参加してみると内容的には妥当であったと思います。

On December 12th, I participated with my husband and two daughters, making it a group of four. I apologize for the late posting. I got a bit delayed due to the year-end hustle and bustle...

On the day, the weather was cloudy and a little chilly, but we were able to see the dolphins perfectly. Swimming with the dolphins... my 8-year-old daughter kept saying, "Wow! I'm swimming with dolphins!!" while still wearing her snorkel. The dolphins seemed to enjoy our daughter's excitement, and we got to spend a lot of time with them. It was truly a fun and healing experience. During our stay in Hawaii, my daughters kept saying, "I want to see dolphins!" every day, and even after returning to Japan, my 17-year-old daughter said, "Swimming with dolphins was the most fun!" We definitely want to participate again on our next trip to Hawaii!! My husband, who is a surfer, was left behind at Makaha...

Lastly, I want to thank Yuriko, the captain, Peachan, Kai, Jasmine, Adam, and all the staff for their great care. Thank you very much!!

12月12日、主人と2人の娘と4人で参加しました。書き込み遅くなってすみません。年末のごたごたでついつい遅くなってしまいました・・・。
当日、お天気は曇りで少し肌寒かったのですがイルカちゃんにはバッチリ会うことが出来ました。イルカと一緒に泳いで・・・8歳になる下の娘なんかはシュノーケルをくわえたまんま｢スゴーイ！イルカと泳いでる~！！｣の連発。イルカに夢中の我が家の娘に合せてくれたのか、イルカとの時間をたくさん取ってもらえました。本当に楽しかったし、癒される体験でした。その後のハワイ滞在中も「イルカ行きたい！」と毎日言われ、日本に帰ってからも「イルカが一番楽しかった！」と、17歳の上の娘も言っています。次回のハワイも是非参加させていただきます！！サーファーの主人はマカハに置き去りにして・・・。
最後になりましたが、ユリ子さん、キャプテン、ピーチャン、カイ、ジャスミン、アダム、スタッフの皆さん大変お世話になりました。ありがとうございました！！
