All Reviews for Lunch & Breakfast Experiences

I imagined the scenery featured in a travel guide magazine when I visited the location, but I was really disappointed because it was nothing like the image I had in mind.

旅行ガイド誌に掲載されている風景を思い浮かべて現地に行ったが、
全然イメージにしていた風景ではなかったのでがっかりしました。

The boat had a Japanese female guide who made the experience enjoyable without any inconveniences! The guide was very humorous and fun, creating a friendly atmosphere. I brought my 4-year-old and 10-year-old children along.

Although it was a regular tide day at the sandbar, my 4-year-old was able to play in the shallow water that was about their waist deep. For lunch, we had hamburgers on the boat, and the kids enjoyed them very much.

For snorkeling, we could swim while wearing life jackets, and my 10-year-old had a great time seeing underwater with the borrowed snorkel. My 4-year-old was also able to swim with the life jacket and a floating device that was lent to us!

I was surprised to see many sea turtles, which I hadn't expected at all! After the activities, it felt a bit chilly, but at just the right time, they served hot chocolate, which the kids absolutely loved and enjoyed drinking.

It seems that this tour was the most fun part of our trip to Hawaii for the kids♪ Highly recommended!

船には日本人の女性のガイドの方が乗ってくれており、不自由なく楽しめました！
ガイドの方もとてもユーモアで楽しく、和気あいあいとしていました。
4歳と10歳の子供を連れて行きました。
サンドバーも普通の潮見の日でしたが、4歳児の腹ぐらいの浅瀬で遊べました。
ランチは船上でハンバーガーが食べれて、子供達も美味しく食べれてました。
シュノーケリングは、ライフジャケットを着て泳げるので、10歳は、借りたシュノーケルで水中を見れてとても楽しかった様子。
4歳児も、棒状の浮き具を貸してもらえるので、ライフジャケットと浮き具で泳げました！
あまり期待していなかったウミガメも沢山見れて、びっくり！
アクティビティの後は少し肌寒く感じたのですが、グッドタイミングで、ホットチョコレートを出して下さり、子供達はとーーーっても気に入って、喜んで飲んでいました。
今回のハワイ旅行の中で、子供達は一番楽しかったのが、このツアーだったみたいです♪
とても、オススメ♪

The day after arriving in Hawaii, I chose a course that departed at 9:30 instead of early morning. It was relaxing, so I was able to recover my energy. The scenery and timing were just right.

It had been a while since I went snorkeling, but there were no issues at all. I got to swim around the coral reefs and see beautiful fish, which made for a wonderful time. It was a bit disappointing that it was a little deep due to the tides, but the good weather and the opportunity to interact with foreign travelers made me very satisfied!

ハワイに着いた次の日なので、早朝では無く、９時半出発のコースにしました。ゆったりできたので、体力も回復。景色も時間もちょうど良かったです。
シュノーケリングも久々でしたが、何の問題もなく、サンゴ礁をぐるっと一回りしたり、綺麗な魚を見られて素晴らしい時間でした。滿汐等の関係で少し深かったのが残念でしたが、いいお天気だったことや、外国の旅行者とも交流できるので、私は大満足でした！

You can go horseback riding in the great nature of Hawaii, even as a beginner. The scenery is wonderful, and I was truly moved.

The guide was very kind and attentive.

I recommend scheduling a morning horseback ride that allows you to plan for an afternoon drive with a rental car.

ハワイの大自然の中を初心者でも乗馬できます。景色も素晴らしく、感動しました。

ガイドさんもとても優しく、丁寧です。

レンタカーでのドライブと、午後からの予定も組める午前中の乗馬をおすすめします。

This was my first time in Hawaii.
I participated with my two sons, aged 9 and 11, making it a family of four.
We were satisfied with both the swimming and lunch.
This tour is popular and fills up quickly, so I recommend making a reservation early if you're considering a trip to Hawaii.

★Departure★
We were picked up under the flagpole at the Ilikai Hotel.
It’s also a pickup spot for Dolphin University and other tours, so it was quite crowded.
The bus arrived about 10 minutes late, but I felt reassured because I had called the contact number provided by Veltra to ask for the bus number.
The pickup location is also a stop for the pink line bus from Ala Moana Shopping Mall (free with a JCB card), so you could arrive by that bus as well.
After a 60-minute bus ride, we arrived at the port.

★Boarding - Sandbar★
We were split into two groups: Japanese and others.
Around 40:15, there were a lot of Japanese people.
Since the boat was the same size, it felt a bit crowded here.
We went with one Japanese person and a cheerful foreign staff member who understood Japanese. Let’s go!!
Drinks were provided along the way.
The lemonade was fantastic!
We arrived at the sandbar in about 30 minutes.

★Sandbar★
Unfortunately, it wasn't an island but rather a shallow area up to our stomachs.
If you really want an island experience, you can choose from three tour times: morning, noon, and afternoon, so check the tide schedule before making a reservation!
Here, we practiced snorkeling.
It was just right for the kids to get accustomed!
With the emerald blue sea and sandy coral, we took photos and enjoyed the clear water.
Beach volleyball was open for everyone to join!
It was a lot of fun.
Snorkels and life jackets are available for rent.
Fins are for the next coral reef.

★Lunch - Turtle Tour★
Lunch consisted of huge burgers!
The meat was freshly grilled on the boat.
The staff came aboard and performed live music with a guitar, and I thought, "Ah, this is a resort."

After finishing our meal, we set off.
We watched turtles while heading to the large coral reef.
On average, we saw one every 2-3 minutes.
I think we saw about 10-15 turtles.

★Snorkeling at the Coral Reef★
We received bread and off we went!
The fish gathered around, and when we offered the bread, they nibbled at it!
And then, a turtle swam right beside us!
I made a wish and swam together for about 30 seconds.
We swam for about 30 minutes, but due to a series of jellyfish stings (the blue ones), we had to cut it short.
(My wife also got stung.)

Those who were stung by jellyfish were treated with warm packs or cream.
The staff here were very attentive and provided great service.
We enjoyed warm drinks on the way back.

★Return★
The bus was 30 minutes late, haha.
But it was nice to have a little break on land.
It seems like taking a direct route from the boat to the bus could lead to motion sickness.
Everyone has their own perspective on this.

★Overall Review★
It was very good!
Next time, I want to achieve "landing" on the sandbar!

ここの考え方は人それぞれということで。

★総評★
とても良かったです！
今度はサンドバー「上陸」果たしたいです^ ^

We signed up for the two hour guided tour. This was perfect for our family. Our guide (Nick) was very friendly and gave us some great pointers on additional things to do on our vacation on Oahu. After our kayak tour, we were able to use their bicycles and ride to the beach to spend some time snorkeling before it was time to head back to our hotel.

Due to the tides and weather, the children were constantly floating, making it far from possible to walk on the sandy beach, which was disappointing. The tour program and the atmosphere with the attendants were good.

潮と天候の影響か、子供は常に浮いてる状態で、砂浜を歩くにはほど遠くて残念でした。
ツアーのプログラムやアテンドさん達の雰囲気は良かったです。

The scenery was amazing, but at this time of year, there are jellyfish, and about 5 or 6 people got stung. Of course, even on the bus during the transfer, I think it's important to inform people about the dangers more than before, as it can be dangerous! Children got stung more than adults, which is scary!

景色は最高でしたが、今の時期はクラゲがいて、5.,.6人ほど刺されました。
移動のバスの中も勿論のことツアー案内から、やはり危険は、以前より知らせないと、危ないと思いますよ！大人以上に子供も刺されましたが、怖いですよねー！

I was glad that I could make a reservation on this site, as other sites required a minimum of 12 people. The seats were in the second row, and I had a great view. There were three food options to choose from, including loco moco and fish and chips, and there were cocktails available as drinks. I was more than satisfied and full. I plan to make a reservation again next time.

他のサイトは12名以上でないと予約できませんでしたが、こちらのサイトで受け付けていただいてよかったです
席も2列目で、とても良く観覧できました
フードは3品から選べて、ロコモコやフィッシュ&チップスなどがあり、ドリンクはカクテルもあり、私は充分にお腹いっぱいになりました
また次回も予約しようと思います

Due to the season, we didn't see any sandbars like those on TV, but the service was sufficient and good. The food was more to our liking than that of the famous tours, and the kids ate a lot.

季節柄、テレビに出てくるようなサンドバーは見られませんでしたが、必要十分なサービスで良かったです。
ご飯も有名ツアーのものより我が家は好みで子供達も沢山食べていました。

This was my second experience at the sandbar. This time, I went with a different tour company. It's called the Angel Sea Tour, but the person calling out at the meeting point wasn't very good at Japanese, so be sure to remember "Captain Bob Tours" as well!

The sandbar itself has territories depending on the tour company, so it's hard to say, but unfortunately, there was still water up to my knees this time. It's understandable given the weather, season, and lunar phases.

The flow was the same as the previous tour with another company: heading from the port to the sandbar → playing at the sandbar → lunch → snorkeling. There were two buses and two boats. One boat was just for Japanese people, while the other had a mix of Japanese and international guests (laughs). There were about 100 people in total.

The Angel Sea Tour offers:
- BBQ lunch that is incredibly delicious! They grill hamburgers on the boat!
- The tour guide is great at getting everyone excited and entertained.
They provide activities like beach volleyball at the sandbar.
- They don’t do annoying things like taking photos and selling them! (laughs)
- I encountered a giant sea turtle while snorkeling!

So, I highly recommend this tour!

サンドバーは2度目の体験。前回とは違うツアー会社でした。天使の海ツアーとなっていますが、集合場所での呼び出しは日本語があまり得意でない方でしたので、「キャプテンボブツアー」とも是非覚えておきましょう！
サンドバー自体はツアー会社によってのテリトリーがあるので、なんともいえないですが、残念ながら今回も膝下くらいまで水がありました。天候や季節、月の満ち欠けの影響があるので仕方ないですね。
流れは前回の他社のツアーとも同じく、港からサンドバーへ向かう→サンドバーで遊ぶ→ランチ→シュノーケリングの構成でした。
バス2台分、船は2隻。1隻は日本人だけ、もう一隻は半分日本人＋多国籍軍でした（笑）全体で100名くらいでしょうか。
天使の海ツアーは、
・BBQランチがめちゃくちゃおいしい！船の上でハンバーグ焼いてます！
・添乗員さんが盛り上げ上手！楽しませてくれます
　サンドバーではビーチバレーなど用意してくれています
・写真撮影して販売する・・など、うっとおしいことしません！笑
・シュノーケリングで巨大ウミガメに遭遇！
ということで、おすすめツアーです！

I was able to ride horses privately, so I received instruction that matched my level. Additionally, the lunch at the mountain top was excellent in both food and view. The view from the handmade swing was also exceptional!

プライベートで乗馬出来たので、レベルにあった指導をして頂けました。また、山頂での昼食は、料理、眺めが最高でした。また、手作りブランコから見る眺めも格別でした！

I couldn't see many dolphins, but all the staff were bright and fun, making for an enjoyable time. My preschooler was reluctant to snorkel and wanted to stay on the boat, but a staff member picked her up and took her into the water. Although she couldn't snorkel, she had a great time singing while swaying with the waves. I'm very grateful to the staff who tried to entertain the whole family.

イルカはたくさんはみることができませんでしたが、スタッフの皆さんが明るく、楽しい方ばかりで楽しい時間が過ごせました。幼稚園の子供がシュノーケルを嫌がり船に残ろうとしましたが、スタッフのお姉さんが抱きかかえて海に連れて行ってくれました。シュノーケルはできなかったものの、波に揺られながら歌を歌って楽しませてくれて娘もとても楽しく過ごせました。家族全員を楽しませてくれようとしたスタッフさん達に感謝でいっぱいです。

The driver tried to separate our seats, which had two participants. It seemed like they wanted to put their luggage in the front seat? This was our second time, but the lunch was of lower quality compared to last time, and it wasn't BBQ! The biggest disappointment was that we had to snorkel in a line. I think they should advertise it as suitable for beginners. I don't think I'll participate next time.

ドライバーが2人参加の私達の席を別々に座らせようとしました。自分の荷物を前席に置きたいらしく？
今回は2回目でしたが、前回よりランチもランクダウン、BBQ?ではなかった！そして一番の残念は並んでスノーケリングしなければならなかった事。初級者用と宣伝した方が良いと思います。今度は参加しないと思います。

I was really interested in the Angel's Sea experience, so I decided to participate. After checking reviews, magazines, and online information, I learned that the tide is better in the early morning, so I joined the morning session. When I woke up, the weather was clear, and I was excited as I was taken to the boat dock, but the weather started to look a bit suspicious. It didn't seem like it would rain, but there were quite a few clouds. Despite the situation, we boarded the boat and set sail for the spot! The Japanese guide (female) who was with us in the shuttle and on the boat provided very clear explanations and kept everyone entertained with her bright energy.

First, we stopped the boat at a spot where turtles are known to appear for some watching. Although they didn't come right in front of us, we did see quite a few turtles. Everyone was excited and taking photos. Next, we headed to the sandbar. As I mentioned earlier, there were many clouds, so it felt a bit chilly when we arrived at the sandbar! I was disappointed because I had relied on the information for the morning session, but the tide was not very low, only about waist-deep. The water level was lower than expected, around ankle-deep, and without any sunshine, it felt cold and a bit murky. Because of this, the snorkeling experience was less enjoyable.

It seems that the timing might have been off, or perhaps the volcanic activity on the Big Island affected the weather, causing many clouds and a whitish appearance around us. There were mountains where Jurassic World was filmed, and I couldn't help but think how beautiful it would have been if the weather had been clear! I was filled with regret, imagining the stunning scenery like in the experience photos. This time, we had a light meal with sandwiches, which were quite tasty. Drinks like cola, Sprite, tea, and other beverages were available for free.

For those who will participate in the future, I can only say that if you're lucky enough to have clear weather, you will have an amazing time! Locals also mentioned that the early morning is better for the tide, so it might be a good idea to choose the morning session. All we can do is hope for good weather. I hope to join again someday in perfect sunny conditions.

天使の海すごく興味が有り参加しました。口コミ情報や雑誌やネットなどの説明を見て朝早い方が潮引きが良いと知り朝早い時間帯で参加しました。朝起きてかなりの晴天でワクワクしながら船乗りばまで送迎してもらうなかなんだか天気が怪しい感じ。雨は降りそうもないけど雲がかなり多くなってきた。状況が変わらず船に乗りスポットまで出航！送迎車から船の中もずっと一緒に乗っていた日本人(女性)のガイドさんは、とても分かりやすい説明に非常に明るいテンションでみんなを楽しく和ませていました。まず亀の出るスポットで船のエンジンを止めてウォッチング。本当の目の前には現れなかったものの、結構亀が出現しました。みんな興奮して写真を撮っていました。次にサンドバーに向かいました。最初にも言ったように雲が多かったのでちょっと肌寒い感じの中サンドバーに到着！しっかり情報をあてにして朝の参加にしたのに残念。潮引きがあまく腰位迄の深さでした。足首程度の水位の期待が外れて晴れ間がないから寒いし少し濁って見える感じでした。なのでシュノーケルも楽しさが半減でした。時期が悪かったのかハワイ島の噴火の影響で風に流れて雲が多く辺りが白っぽい感じになってしまっているそうです。ジェラシックワールドの撮影された山があったりで、これが晴天だったらどんなに綺麗なんだろう！体験談の写真にのような素晴らしい景色なんだろうと悔やんでしょうがない気持ちでいっぱいでした。今回は軽食付きでサンドイッチを頂きました。普通に美味しかったです。ドリンクはコーラ、スプライト、紅茶、お茶などが飲み放題でした。これから参加する方には運良く晴天でであれば最高な時間を過ごせるよ！としか言えません。現地の方に聞いても朝早い方が潮引きが良いと言っていましたので、朝早い方便を選んだ方が良いかもしれません。天気は願うしかありません。いつかまた最高の晴天で参加したいです。

Zero bad things to say about the whole experience!
First, the bus driver, Rey, was friendly and prompt!
The host, Jenner, was also extremely friendly and funny!
Mike and Tyson, the dudes on the boat, were insanely helpful and welcoming!

If you're staying in Waikiki, I recommend taking their shuttle. There are various location pickups throughout Waikiki, so you can just walk to one.

The tour starts at the sandbar, where you can walk around explore. They also have a volleyball net setup, which is super cool. Next, we are served freshly cooked burgers and snacks on the boat. Then, after lunch, we sail to an area where we can turtle watch. Lastly, we were taken to a nearby reef, where we could snorkel for an hour. They provide all the proper snorkeling gear and life vests, so no need to bring your own.

This was my first trip to Hawaii with my family. The ocean was like paradise, and I was right to check the tide times in advance for this day. Although it wasn't completely like a sandbar, the beautiful sand reflecting on the water was truly a sight that you can't find in Japan. The kids were also impressed, but our time there was limited to taking photos or playing volleyball. The volleyball court was taken over by some very energetic foreigners, and the Japanese boat team was just watching. I felt that if there were more activities to enjoy here, it would create a better experience and more memorable moments. Things like rubber boats, trampolines, water polo, water guns, etc. would really enhance the experience.
But the ocean was beautiful.
I also heard about a BBQ lunch, but it was just a burger, which was disappointing.

私自身、初めてのハワイで家族をつれての旅行でした。天国の海、期待して前もって潮の時間も確認してこの日にして正解でした。完全には中洲みたいな砂浜がでている状態ではありませんでしたが、膝下くらいで綺麗な砂が海面に反射してまさしく日本にはにない綺麗な海でした。子供たちも感動しておりましたが、ココでの時間は写真撮影か、バレーしかありませんでした。バレーボールはハイテンションな外人さんに占領され日本人ボートチームはただソレを見ているだけでした。ココでもっと過ごすに楽しめる物を催してくれたら、差別化がもっと出来るし、思い出も、感動も倍増するのでは・・と感じました。ゴムボート、トランポリン、水球、水鉄砲、エトセトラ・・・
でも海は綺麗でした
あと、BBQランチと聴いていましたがただのバーガーでした
残念でした

The sea turtles were adorable. The sea turtles that appeared here and there in the ocean were amazing. My first snorkeling experience was also fun, and I enjoyed the BBQ-style lunch. However, perhaps due to the season, the shallow areas were deeper than I expected, which was a bit disappointing.

The warm drink service after coming out of the sea was comforting, not just in terms of taste, and the staff were friendly, making the overall experience enjoyable.

ウミガメが可愛かったです。
海のあちこちに現れるウミガメが最高でした。
初めてのシュノーケリング体験も楽しく、お昼のBBQ風のランチも楽しめました。
ただ、時期的なものなのか、浅瀬が思ったよりも深く、イメージと少し違っており、残念でした。

海からあがった後の温かい飲み物サービスは、味云々ではなく、ホッとする事ができ、スタッフさんの人柄も良く、全体的に楽しめました。

Had a very good time most def doing it again.... would recommend to do it Hawaii.

Previously, I participated in this tour during my honeymoon and was moved by the sea turtles, so this time I joined with my two children, making it a family of four. At the sandbar, we played volleyball with the staff and other participants, and a Japanese staff member took some wonderful photos for us, which was a lot of fun. The hamburger we had on the boat was as delicious as rumored. Thank you very much!

以前、新婚旅行で参加してウミガメに感動したので、今回子どもを2人連れて家族4人で参加しました。
サンドバーではスタッフの方や他の参加者さんとバレーボールをしたり、日本人スタッフの方にステキな写真を撮ってもらったりして、とても楽しめました。
船の上で食べたハンバーガーも噂通りとても美味しかったです。
ありがとうございました！

It was my first time kayaking, and I had a great time. Before heading out to sea, we received a brief lesson on paddling, but it was still a trial by fire. However, I gradually got used to it, so my anxiety faded away.

Our guide, Ryusei, really boosted our spirits, making the kayaking experience even more enjoyable. Thank you very much. I definitely recommend going with a guide. The staff members were also very kind.

However, during the drive from the meeting point to Kailua Beach Adventures, the driver (who was not Japanese) didn't greet us at all. Additionally, on the return trip, there was no announcement like "The next stop is ○○," so if I had dozed off, I would have missed my stop. Is this just part of the responsibility in Hawaii...? Even if they can't speak Japanese, I think they should at least provide this information.

But the kayaking was fun. I would like to try it again next time.

初めてのカヤックでしたが、十分楽しめました。
海に出る前に簡単な漕ぎ方を教わりますが、やはりぶっつけ本番です。でも段々と慣れていくので不安はなくなります。

ガイドのりゅうせいさんが気分を盛り上げてくれ、より一層楽しいカッヤック体験になりました。ありがとうございました。
是非　ガイド付きをお勧めします。スタッフの方々も優しいです。

しかし、集合場所からカイルアビーチアドベンチャーズまでの道中運転手さん（日本人ではない）が何の挨拶もなし。また復路ではカイルアビーチアドベンチャーズがら解散場所まで、「次の停車場所は○○です」の案内がないので自分が寝過ごしてしまったら最後、降りるべき所で降りれない。これもハワイ、自己責任なのでしょうか・・・
日本語が話せないとしてもこれだけは案内すべきと思います。

でも、カヤックは楽しかったです。次回もやってみたいです。

Mike and his staff we very nice and pleasant to be around as this was mine and my wife's first time snorkeling. The boat ride was comfortable, the sand bar was a fun expreience and was also a nice way to get comfortable using the equipment. Staff was very attentive while we were in the water and made sure everyone was safe. Would recommend this to anyone!

In the morning, a dedicated bus came to pick us up near the hotel. From there, we traveled by boat to the location where the dolphins were. During the first two attempts, we couldn't see any dolphins, and I was worried about whether we would get to see them, but we were able to see them swimming underwater!

Due to lack of sleep and fatigue, along with the low water temperature, I ended up feeling seasick towards the end, but I’m glad I had this valuable experience.

I think it would be better to prepare some motion sickness medication if possible.

朝は専用バスがホテル近くまで迎えに来てくれました。
そこから船でイルカのいる場所まで移動。最初の二回はイルカは見えず、会えるかどうか不安でしたが無事に水中を泳ぐ姿が見れました！

寝不足と疲労、それから水温が低かった為に最後の方は船酔いしてしまいましたが、貴重な体験ができて良かったです。

酔い止めは出来れば用意した方が良いと思います。

The tour staff were very kind and had great energy! Since a Japanese person was guiding us, I felt very reassured participating! I heard that if you're lucky, you can swim with sea turtles, but unfortunately, that didn't happen for me, which was disappointing. I want to try again next time!! The hamburgers at lunch were also great because they grilled the patties right there, giving it a BBQ feel, and I was very satisfied!

ツアースタッフの方々がとても親切でノリがいい！日本人の方がガイドしてくれたのでとても安心して参加できました！運が良ければウミガメと泳ぐこともできるとのことだったのですが、それは叶わなかったのが残念です。次はリベンジしたい！！昼のハンバーガーもその場でパテを焼いてくれるのでBBQ感覚も味わえてとても満足！

It was an excellent experience! The staff were outstanding and fun

We had always wanted to visit the Sandbar and snorkel in the Kaneohe area. Captain Bob's made it enjoyable . The crew was pleasant and the food was great. It was a relaxed atmosphere (meaning, not too regulated) so we could pretty much do whatever we wanted. There were lots of turtles and fish. The only drawback was that it was more crowded than I'd imagined it would be. Maybe it would be less busy when the keikis go back to school.

We arrived at the sandbar just before noon under cloudy skies, and it was a bit chilly with the wind. At the sandbar, we practiced snorkeling in the shallowest area, which was about knee-deep for adults, as my first-grade grandson was trying it for the first time. After that, we enjoyed watching tropical fish and sea turtles in deeper waters. It was quite a good tour.

曇り空の中、昼前にサンドバーに着いたが、風もあり、肌寒かった。サンドバーでは、一番浅い場所で、大人の膝下位で、初めてのシュノーケリングに1年生の孫が、挑戦するため、練習しました。その後、深い場所で、熱帯魚や海亀を見て楽しみました。なかなか、良いツアーでした。

It was disappointing that the sandbar was underwater. The water clarity was also not great. Our Japanese guide, Yuki, was cheerful and very pleasant. The hamburgers for lunch were delicious, and even the kids enjoyed them.

サンドバーが海の中だったのは、残念でした。
海の中も透明度は、イマイチでした。
日本人ガイドのユキさん、明るくて感じがとても良かったです。
ランチのハンバーガーは、子供も美味しいとたへ゛ていました。

We used this service for our honeymoon. The small boat was packed with about 40 adults and around 5 instructors. No matter how much profit is at stake, that was terrible. I am a diver, and even on boats of similar size, the limit is 10 people.

There was hardly any space to sit, and of course, there were beginners in snorkeling, so when we spotted dolphins, everyone was flailing around in the water, and the dolphins quickly disappeared. It was handled in a way that made it feel like just being lucky to see them once! Therefore, I do not recommend this company for those hoping for a leisurely dolphin swim.

The camera fees were also exorbitant, with still images costing $60 and both still images and videos costing $100, which is shocking. Additionally, although it was optional, there was also a charge for the wetsuit. There was only one photographer for 40 people. When I checked the photos after returning home, despite paying a high price, I only had about 20 photos of myself. I am not satisfied with this.

I believe that if they reduced the capacity to around 20 people and added another photographer, the tour would be much better. I hope for improvements.

I was truly happy to see wild dolphins, even just once. For my next trip to Hawaii, I plan to use a different tour company.

Thank you.

今回ハネムーンで利用しました。
小さな船に大人40人とインストラクター約5人がぎゅうぎゅう詰めでした。
いくら利益の為とはいえ、あれはひどいです。私はダイバーですが、ダイビングでは同じような大きさの船でも10人が限度です。

座るところを探してもないぐらいの押込み具合で、もちろんシュノーケリング初めての方もいらっしゃいますので、イルカを見つけると、海上でバタバタし、イルカもすぐにいなくなりました。一目見れただけでラッキーだね！という捌き方なので、ゆっくりドルフィンスイムを希望の方にはこちらの会社はオススメ致しません。

カメラ撮影も高額で、静止画で60ドル、静止画&動画は100ドルと驚きの価格です。その上任意ですが、ウェットスーツ代も取られます。
カメラマンは40人に対して、1人だけです。帰国後に写真を確認すると、高額を支払ったにもかかわらず、やはり自身の写真は20枚前後です。これには納得がいきません。

定員数を20人程にし、カメラマンをもう一人増やせば、もっとよりよいツアーになると思います。改善されることを希望致します。


野生のイルカを一目でも見ることが出来たのは本当に嬉しかったです。次回のハワイ観光では他のツアー会社を利用しようと思います。

ありがとうございました。

It was a last-minute kayak tour with an instructor. The instructor was very nice, and I felt安心 (at ease) even with my two children! They shared various stories on the island, and the kids were very interested! Since lunch was included, we had pizza for lunch! The pizza was delicious, and it was a very satisfying day. I want to come back again next year!

急遽、インストラクターさんについてもらってのカヤックツアーでした。
インストラクターさんがとても良い方で子供2人連れてでしたが安心して行けました！
島でも色んな話をしてくれて子供たちも興味津々！
ランチも付いていたので、ランチはピザにしました！
ピザも美味しくて大満足の1日でした。また来年も来たいです！！
