Oahu
We were picked up at our hotel, brought through a scenic drive to Kailua and Lanikai Beach. We had about 2 hours to kill at one of the most beautiful beaches on Oahu. They gave us lunch tickets, and we had the pizza. Our lunch was delicious!! The guides were great, and helped with our novice level of kayaking. The experience was great. Thanks to our guides Kendra and Chad.
Awesome time and great staff! Will have to do this one again next time.
I had a guided kayaking experience. In the morning, we kayaked, and in the afternoon, we borrowed bicycles and snorkeling gear to go cycling.
In the morning, we had a guided kayaking experience where the guide taught us a lot. We landed on a small island, and the guide shared interesting information about the island's wildlife, which was very enjoyable. We had the option to choose between guided or non-guided, but the guide's stories were so fascinating that I would prefer to have a guide again if I use the service in the future. The guide also took many photos for us, and we were able to receive the photo data later.
In the afternoon, after having a meal, we borrowed bicycles and cycled to Lanikai Beach. Kailua was beautiful, but Lanikai was also a wonderful place, and I was very satisfied to visit both.
When I was deciding whether to book the kayaking tour in Honolulu or Kailua, choosing Kailua was definitely the right decision. Waikiki is lovely, but I thought it would be quite difficult to get to Kailua on my own, so being able to experience the tour and enjoy the atmosphere of a different beach was fantastic. There were also various activities like Segway tours, so if I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I think it would be nice to try different experiences.
ガイド付きのカヤック体験をしました。
午前中はカヤック、午後は自転車やシュノーケルの道具を借りる事ができるのでサイクリングをしました。
午前中は、ガイドの方に教えてもらいなぎらカヤック体験をしました。カヤックで小さな島に上陸し、島の生き物の事等いろいろ教えてくれ、とても楽しかったです。ガイド付きか無しか選べましたが、ガイドの方のお話もとても面白く、再度利用するとしてもガイド付きにしたいな思えました。
ガイドの方が写真も沢山撮って下さり、後で写真のデータを貰うことも出来ました。
午後は、食事をした後、自転車を借りてサイクリングでラニカイビーチに行きました。カイルアも綺麗でしたが、ラニカイもとても素敵な所で、どちらにも行けて大満足です。
カヤックツアーに申し込む際に、ホノルルかカイルアか迷いましたが、カイルアにして大正解でした。ワイキキも素敵ですが、カイルアの方に自力で行くというのはなかなか難しいなと思ったので、ツアーも体験できて、違うビーチの雰囲気も楽しめて最高でした。
カヤック以外にもセグウェイ等色々あったので、またハワイに行く機会があれば、体験するものを変えて参加するのもいいなと思いました。
Dear Participants,
Thank you for joining the tour and for your comments. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed kayaking and Kailua. We hope you will visit us again. All of our staff are sincerely looking forward to your next visit.
Thank you.

The place I wanted to visit the most in Hawaii this time!! Since the selected locations were only in the Waikiki area, I stayed at the Ala Moana Hotel and walked nearby ^ - ^ I was told it would be called in both Japanese and English, but it was all in English ^ - ^
The local guide was Japanese and very cheerful and wonderful (^^) I was able to see honu (sea turtles) and it was amazing!! I also saw manta rays!!
When getting off the boat to the sandbar, it was a bit deep (about waist-deep for me at 160 cm), which surprised me, but as you go towards the center, it becomes about calf-deep! If you ask the crew or captain for photos, they take great pictures for you! They can even take you on board w
The weather was nice and it was very beautiful!!
今回のハワイでは一番行きたかったところ!!ピックされる場所が、ワイキキエリアだけだったため、アラモアナ ホテルに宿泊した私は近くまで歩きました^ - ^日本語と英語で呼ばれるってことだったけど、全部英語でした^ - ^
現地のガイドの方は日本人の方で、すごく明るくて素敵な方でした(^^)ホヌも見ることができて最高!!マンタも見れました!!
船からサンドバーに降りる時、少し深くて(160センチの私で腰くらい)びっくりしたけど、中心に行くと、ふくらはぎくらいの深さになります!クルーやキャプテンに写真を頼むと、いい感じに写真撮ってくれます!のせられますw
お天気も良くとっても綺麗でした!!
The sea turtle watching was a lot of fun, with the staff providing great support! I was lucky to see a manta ray, which only appears occasionally! They also informed us about what we could and couldn't do at the sandbar, allowing us to enjoy ourselves without any danger. There were light snacks and drinks provided, making it a fulfilling tour for the price.
ウミガメウォッチングではスタッフさんがしっかりフォローしてくださりとても楽しい時間でした!
たまにしか現れないマンタにも会えてラッキーでした!
サンドバーでもやっていいことダメなことを教えて下さり、危険もなく楽しみました。
軽食やドリンクも用意されてて価格の割には充実したツアーでした。
The day began with an exciting morning call, and while rubbing my sleepy eyes, I listened to the safety instructions and equipment explanations in the stylish bus, which really got my spirits up. Above all, the high energy of the staff was infectious. With their thoughtful attention to detail and unique personalities, the atmosphere on the boat felt like a party, and it was so much fun.
At the dolphin point, I was thrilled to see dolphins swimming slowly right beneath me. At another spot, the water was so clear it felt like I was not even underwater, and I had wonderful memories swimming with sea turtles and tropical fish, losing track of time. I also enjoyed the slide, trampoline, and hula lessons, and I definitely want to participate again next time.
It's a tour that interacts with nature, but there’s so much more to enjoy beyond just the dolphins, so I highly recommend it.
*To those participating: Depending on the season, I recommend renting a wetsuit. My wife loved the logo and ended up buying it.*
モーニングコールから興奮の1日が始まり

そしてなにより スタッフ皆さんのハイテンション
細かい気遣いと個性的なキャラの面白さで
船上はパーティー状態で楽しかったです
イルカポイントでは自分の真下をゆっくり泳ぐイルカたちに
感激
別のポイントでは水中ではないような透明感のある場所で
ウミガメや熱帯魚と泳ぎ時間を忘れてしまうほど良い思い出でした
滑り台やトランポリン・フラレッスンも楽しめ 次回も必ず参加したいと
思います
自然相手のツアーですがイルカ以外にも楽しめておすすめです。
※参加される方へ 時期にもよるかと思いますがウエットスーツをレンタル
されることをお勧めします。
妻はロゴが気に入り購入しちゃいましたが
Thank you for your wonderful comment. The west side of Oahu offers truly beautiful ocean experiences. Of course, the dolphin experience is also fantastic, but we are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful sea. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
嬉しい書き込みありがとうございます。オアフ島ウエストサイドは、本当に美しい海の体験ができます。もちろん、イルカの体験も素晴らしいですが、キレイな海を満喫していただけたようで、私たちスタッフも嬉しい限りです。また是非お会いできる日を楽しみにしています。
Well organised and friendly tour - plenty of time at both the sandbar and the snorkel location. Lunch was great, snorkel equipment provided, highly recommend doing this activity.
I went with a group of friends and we had a blast! The staff was amazing and explained everything to us. They also reminded everyone of the importance of treating the animals with respect which made us very happy!
Aloha Victoria,
Mahalo for your 5-star review! We're so happy you had a good time and appreciated our respect of the marine wildlife we encounter!
The tour was exciting, and the progress was smooth, making it enjoyable without getting bored! It was a bit cloudy due to the volcanic eruption, but I was satisfied. However, the hamburger for lunch was cold, so I would have preferred to eat it while it was warm.
ツアーの盛り上げ方、進行がスムーズで飽きずに楽しめました!噴火の影響で少し曇ってましたが、満足できました。
ただ、お昼のハンバーガーは冷めていたので
あったかいうちに食べたかったです
I thought it would be quite hard, but the guide helped us along the way and talked to us a lot, so it was really fun!! Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, but I definitely think you should have a guide. It became a wonderful memory! Thank you very much!
けっこうハードかなと思ってましたが、途中からガイドさんが助けてくれたり、たくさんんお話してくれたので、すごく楽しかったです!!
あいにく天気は曇り空でしたが、絶対ガイドさんはつけるべきだと思います❀✿すごくいい思い出になりました!ありがとうございました!

The weather was bad, but I enjoyed it.
It was difficult to carry the kayak to the coast. I think it's impossible for two women without assistance. I understand the reason for needing to carry it individually due to the location, but I forgot whether that was mentioned in the tour details. A tip of 15%-20% of the tour fee is requested during the final survey of the tour. It would be nice if the price included the tip, even though it becomes quite expensive. I was glad to receive the photos later via email, but there were no comments or anything, which felt a bit cold. I wondered if it was because the tip was small.
天気が悪かったですが楽しめました。
カヤックを海岸まで運ぶのは大変です。
女性2人の場合は手伝ってもらわないと無理だと思う。
立地環境の問題で個人で運ばないとダメな理由はわかりますが、
ツアー詳細にその旨を記載していたかは忘れてました。
チップはツアー代の15%-20%を
ツアー最後のアンケートの際に要求されます。
高額になりますがチップ込みの料金にしてもらうと嬉しいです。
写真は後でメールしていだだいて良かったですが
その際にコメントなどはなく、そっけないものでした。
チップが少なかったからかとも思いました。
Dear SSES,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for your valuable feedback.
Indeed, when women participate together, pulling the kayak can be quite a challenging task. We should perhaps communicate more clearly that, by law, our staff cannot assist with this. I will convey this to the higher-ups. Thank you.
Regarding the tipping matter, I apologize for any misunderstanding. Tips are voluntary and not mandatory. The absence of comments in the email was not due to a lack of tip; rather, it was an oversight on the part of the staff not to include comments. I will ensure that our staff is reminded of this. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
When you visit Hawaii again, please do come and visit Kailua. We look forward to seeing you.
Thank you.

ツアーにご参加、及び貴重なご意見ありがとうございます。
そうですね、通常、女性同士でご参加の場合、カヤックを引っぱって行くのは大変な作業かと思います。法律上、スタッフがお手伝いできないことは、もっとお知らせすべきかもしれません。上のものに申し伝えさせて頂きます。ありがとうございます。
また、チップの件ですが、誤解を招いてしまったようで、申し訳ございません。チップは、お心付けですので、必須ではございません。また、チップが少なかったから、メールにコメントがなかったということではなく、スタッフがコメントを記入しなかったという失態です。スタッフには、厳重に注意してまいります。大変失礼致しました。
またハワイにお越しの際には、是非ともカイルアに遊びにいらして下さい。お待ちいたしております。
ありがとうございます。

This tour was really awesome! The staff was extremely helpful, courteous and knowledgeable. They had so many children on the tour I was on and they handled everything very safely and professionally. This tour doesn't guarantee dolphin sightings but they found them very quickly and easily and were very diligent to be sure everyone had a chance to see them. The Dolphins were in groups of 3-5 and I saw them at least 5 times. It was excellent.
The reef they brought us to was awesome! tons of fish and I saw at least 4 turtles.
I would highly recommend this tour. There are many that just to dolphin sightings, not swimming. Or they only allow 2-4 people in at once so youre not in the water the whole time, but they took everyone at once and kept a tight knit group and had recommendations on how to not scare the dolphins away. It was great. I didn't do any of the water sports because the snorkeling was so good but others looked to be having fun.
Great staff!
Great dolphins!
Great snorkel spot!
Great entertainment on the way back!
Very safe but also flexible.
Check it out for sure. Best day in Hawaii.
Aloha! Mahalo for your 5-Star Review of Dolphins and You! We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on the experience with others. It's fantastic that you were able to see the dolphins 5 times! They are very curious creatures. We hope this has been a memorable encounter for you, and we look forward to hosting you again if you are ever back in Hawaii :-).
The tour itself was very good and interesting, especially if you're a history buff. Only disappointment was we had to pick up 1 tour member at the airport and waited for over a half hour for him and he wasn't even there, he showed up later on. We could have used that extra half hour for site seeing on the USS Missouri or other museums at Pearl Harbor. Guide Jay was knowledgeable and engaging. Overall, a great tour with lots to see!
There was a morning call, and there was a guide who spoke Japanese, so I felt at ease. The staff were all fun people, and the dancing was great. It was a wonderful experience. I got to see dolphins and swim with tropical fish. Since it was my first time snorkeling, I think I could have enjoyed it even more if I had been more accustomed to it. To make it a good memory, taking motion sickness medication is essential. There were a few people who got sick and looked like they were struggling.
モーニングコールもあり、日本語の出来るガイドさんもいたので安心♡
スタッフの皆さんも楽しい人たちでダンスもよかった。いい体験になりました。イルカも見れて熱帯魚とも泳げました♡
シュノーケル初体験だったので慣れていればさらに満喫出来たなぁって思います。よい思い出にするために酔い止めは必須。酔った人が何人かいて、しんどそうでしたよ。
Thank you for joining the tour to swim with dolphins! We are all very happy to have been able to help you create memories in Hawaii. Please try again next time. I think you'll enjoy it even more on your second visit.
イルカと泳ぐツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございます!ハワイの思い出作りのお手伝いができたらスタッフ一同、とても嬉しいです。次回、また再挑戦してください。2回目だとさらに楽しめるかと思います。
Amazing perfect couldn't of been better. No volleyball tho :(
Unfortunately, due to the weather, the temperature was lower than expected, and it felt a bit cold on the boat with the wind. A beach towel is a must; I regretted bringing a smaller towel (laughs). The tour staff kept us warm by organizing beach volleyball and encouraging us with their cheers. The hamburgers eaten on the boat were exceptional! I wonder if the title "BBQ" is because they grill the patties and such? Since we had free time in the afternoon, I was able to make the most of the day!
あいにくのお天気のため、気温が予想より低く、船上は風もあり少し寒く感じました。
ビーチタオル必須ですね、小さめのタオルだったのが後悔(笑)
ツアースタッフの皆さんは、暖まれるようにビーチバレーをしてくださったり
声かけで盛り上げてくださいました。
船上で食べるハンバーガーは格別!
タイトルがBBQとなってるのは、パテなどを焼くからなんでしょうかね?
午後からフリーになるので、とても1日を有効に使えました!
The tour was better than we had anticipated. We went with a 20 month old toddler, sea was calm.
The bus that picked us from the hotel was clean and the bus ride was relaxing.
The atmosphere was friendly, tour guides were fun and professional. Food was excellent, they catered for my spouse who has special dietary needs.
Overall the experience was amazing and will definitely go back to Sandbar with Captain Bob's sandbar adventure
This year, Oahu in Hawaii was unusually cold due to abnormal weather, making it difficult to enjoy ocean activities. It's a shame! Although it was very cold, I thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling in the deep sea near the coral reefs and watching the fish. If the weather had been better, it would have been perfect! However, the BBQ hamburgers on the boat were very delicious, and my grandchildren said the same. Next time, I want to experience it on the Big Island.
たまたま、今年のハワイオアフ島は異常気象で寒くて精一杯 海遊びが楽しめない状況でした。残念‼ただ大変寒かったですが、サンゴ礁付近の深い海に行ってのシュノ-ケルは魚ウォチングを十分楽しめました。天気さえ良かったら最高だったのに・・・‼でも船上BBQハンバ-ガはとっても美味しかった、孫たちも言ってたよ。今度はハワイ島で体験したいと思います。
It was a cold day with bad weather, but I was able to see sea turtles, and I was satisfied with the many fish I saw while snorkeling. However, since the sandbar depends on the tide timing, it's better to focus mainly on snorkeling! The staff was good too.
天候が悪く、寒い一日でしたが、海ガメも見れたし、シュノーケリングでは魚が沢山見れて満足です。ただ、サンドバーは潮位のタイミングもあるので、シュノーケリングメインで考えた方がいいでしょう!スタッフもgood
Playing volleyball in the ocean was so much fun!! Even though we couldn't communicate, we enjoyed ourselves. Also, swimming with the turtles was a great experience.
海の中でやったバレーが楽しすぎた!!言葉通じなくても楽しめました。 あと、亀と泳げた感じも良かったです。
Chartered bus and boat with meals included. They also lend you masks and fins, so you don't have to worry about arranging those yourself. The meals are sufficient considering the location, and the prices are attractive compared to other companies. This tour is one of the few that allows snorkeling near the coral reefs and accepts children. Unfortunately, we weren't blessed with good weather, so I will participate again. Next time, I will dive in without a life jacket from the start!
バスと船のチャーターおまけに食事付き。マスクとフィンも貸してくれますので、自分で手配する煩わしさを考えると言うこと無しでしょう。
食事も場所を考えると充分ですし、価格も他社比較でも魅力的です。
サンゴ礁付近でスノーケリングができて、子供の参加を受け付けてくれるのはこのツアーくらいでは?
残念ながら天候に恵まれなかったので、また参加します。次回は最初からライフジャケット無しで潜りまくります!
It was a very good experience tour.
I thought a regular pickup would come, but a really cool, big, and beautiful bus arrived, and everyone got excited.
There were plenty of monitors inside the bus, and the explanations were easy to understand. The female guide not only spoke Japanese but also created a great atmosphere, making it fun.
The tour was enjoyable for all the members. We got to see and swim with dolphins.
The snorkeling afterward was also very good. Since it can be cold, it's definitely better to borrow a wetsuit at the beginning.
とても良い体験ツアーでした。
普通のお迎えが来ると思っていたらとてもカッコいいデカイ、キレイなバスがきてみんなでテンション上がりました。
モニターもバス内にたくさんあり、説明がわかり易かったです。
ガイドの女性も日本語が話せるだけではなくとても空気を作れる方で楽しかったです。
ツアーは、メンバーが全て楽しかったです。
イルカも見れて泳げて
その後のシュノーケルもとてもよかった。
寒いので
最初の段階で必ずウェットは借りたほうがいいです。
Thank you for your message. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it. Many customers repeat the tour because they want to reunite with the members, so please come back to see not only the dolphins but also the staff. We'll be waiting for you with aloha spirit!
書き込みありがとうございます。楽しめていただけたようでよかったです。メンバーに再会したくてツアーにリピートしていただいているお客様もたくさんいますので、是非また、イルカだけでなく、スタッフにも会いにきてください。アロハスピリットでお待ちしています!
On the day of the tour, it unfortunately rained, but I was able to see both sea turtles and manta rays up close! The staff were all friendly, making it a fun tour.
ツアー当日は生憎の雨模様でしたが、ウミガメ・マンタ両方を間近で見ることができました!
スタッフも気さくな方々ばかりで楽しいツアーでした。
At first, I was worried that I might not be able to paddle out because the waves were strong and pushing me back as I was trying to get from the river to the sea. However, if you choose the right spot, you can definitely make it out to the open water. It was a lot of fun as we kept moving forward.
On the way, we landed on Flat Island, which had many wild birds that didn't mind having their pictures taken up close, so I could take as many photos as I wanted.
Since the kayak exposes your legs, I recommend applying sunscreen on them as well.
最初、川から海に出るところで波が激しくて押し戻されるため、漕ぎ出せないかもと不安になりましたが、場所を選べばちゃんと沖に出ていくことが出来ました。どんどん進むのでとても楽しかったです。
途中上陸したフラットアイランドには野鳥がたくさんいて、近くで写真を撮っても嫌がらないので、撮り放題でした。
足がむき出しになるカヤックなのでちゃんと足にも日焼け止めを塗っておくことをお勧めします。
Dear Kacchan,
Thank you for visiting and for your review. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed kayaking. Currently, the wild birds have just returned, and they will soon be laying eggs and raising their young. Please do come back to see the wild birds again. Our entire staff is looking forward to welcoming you.
Thank you.

We had a great experience. I went with my girlfriend, mom, and grandmother.
The tour gave us a good idea of the places we'd like to visit the next few days. Our tour guide, I think he name was Paul, was kind, knowledgeable, helpful, funny, and provided good advice for activities we could do the next few days.
My long-awaited first trip to Hawaii! I went in mid-April. The day before was unfortunately rainy, so I was worried about rain on the day of my trip, but fortunately, the weather held up until the end. I was able to see a pod of dolphins, sea turtles swimming along the ocean floor, and schools of small fish, which made for an incredibly moving experience in the crystal-clear waters.
As for advice for those who will be participating, I tend to handle the cold well, but if you are sensitive to cold, be sure to bring a larger towel and a jacket, as it can get chilly, especially with the wind while moving on the boat! Also, since mid-April is the end of the rainy season, I was able to take time off work when things were relatively calm to go to Hawaii. If I have the chance again, I would definitely like to go during the dry season next time.
念願の初ハワイ!
4月中旬に行きました。前日があいにく雨模様だったので、当日雨が降るのが心配でしたが、幸い天気も最後まで崩れる事なく、予定通り?イルカの群れにも海底を泳ぐウミガメにも小さい魚の群れにも会う事ができて透き通るようなきれいな海中もともなって感動の体験でした。
これから参加される方へのアドバイス?ですが、私は寒さには強い方なのですが、寒さに弱い方は、船で移動中は特に風が吹くと寒いので、大きめのタオルとジャケットなど寒さ対策は忘れないように!
あと4月中旬は雨季の終わりという事で、今回も仕事が比較的落ち着いた時にお休みをもらってハワイに行く事ができましたが、もし又機会があれば、今度は是非、乾季に行きたいと思っています。
Thank you for joining the tour to swim with wild dolphins. We are glad to hear that you were able to experience the excitement of swimming with dolphins. We hope you will come back to experience summer in Hawaii next time. We look forward to seeing you!
野生のイルカと泳ぐツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございました。イルカと泳ぐ感動を味わっていただけたようで、私たちスタッフも嬉しいです。次回は、ぜひ夏のハワイも体験しにきてください。お待ちしております。
It felt like experiencing a movie on the same boat as foreigners! I even got to see dolphins! However, the waves were really strong, and the boat rocked a lot, so while I enjoyed it, those who are prone to motion sickness might find it tough!
外国の方とおんなじ船で映画の気分を味わってるようでした!イルカにも会えました!
ただ波がすごく船が大きく揺れるので私は楽しかったですが酔いやすい方はきついかもしれないです!
The arrangements were smooth. The pick-up and drop-off after arrival were also seamless, making it a great value and very convenient. I will definitely use this service again next time.
手配までもスムーズです。到着後もスムーズに送迎してもらえるので料金もお得で大変便利でした。次回もまた利用させて頂きます。
I wish the weather had been a bit better...
But snorkeling and sea turtle watching were both fun!
もう少しいいお天気だと良かったのですが。。。
でもシュノーケルも海ガメウォッチとも楽しかったです!
Overall, this trip was quite good. The staff were very nice, and they provided delicious free American-style hamburgers and hot and cold drinks. The only downside was the bad weather.
這次行程整體來說都還不錯,staff 人都很nice ,且還提供美味的免費美式漢堡及冷熱飲品。唯一美中不足的是天氣不好。
