On the day of the trip, the sea conditions were bad, so we quickly switched to canoeing. Canoeing may seem plain, but it was super fun! We paddled to the island across from us, and although I thought it would be quite challenging, the sea was beautiful, and we enjoyed paddling, which made the time fly by.
当日、海の状態が悪く急遽カヌーに変更(*^^*)
カヌーって地味だけど超楽しかったです(*^^*)
向かいの島まで行くのですが結構大変かとおもいきや
海も綺麗だし楽しく漕いであっと言う間でした。

The day before, there was heavy rain, so they kindly lent us bicycles for free since we couldn't swim at Kailua Beach. We were originally planning to go to Lanikai Beach, so this was a great help. However, unlike in Japan, the bicycles didn't have brakes; they used the pedals for braking, which was a bit scary at first.
Additionally, the tour included mats and snorkeling, so there were no inconveniences.
前日が大雨でカイルアビーチで遊泳できなかった為、自転車を無料で貸し出して下さいました。元々ラニカイビーチに行く予定だった為、とても助かりました。けれど、日本と違い自転車のブレーキがなくペダルを用いてのブレーキだったので初めは怖かったです。
他の点としてツアーの中に、ゴザやシュノーケリングも含まれていたので不便な点はありませんでした。
Dear Miley,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for your comments. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your time even though swimming was not possible at Kailua Beach. We hope you will visit us again on a beautiful, sunny day at Kailua Beach.
Thank you.

The combination of the rainy season, a thunderstorm a few days ago, and cloudy weather left the sea murky, so I was disappointed that I couldn't go when the conditions were at their best. However, I was thrilled to encounter a manta ray!

I participated in mid-February. It took about an hour by rental car from the center of Waikiki to get there. The staff kindly taught us how to ride, and there were a total of five of us: one staff member and four tour participants, as we explored the vast ranch for about an hour and a half.
In the middle of the course, we took commemorative photos on a hill with a great view, which became a wonderful memory.
While there aren't as many activities as at places like Kualoa Ranch, I highly recommend it for those who want to enjoy horseback riding at a leisurely pace!
2月の中旬に参加させていただきました。ワイキキの中心地からレンタカーで約一時間で着きました。
スタッフの方に丁寧に乗り方等を教えていただき、スタッフ1名、ツアー参加者4名の計5名で広大な牧場を約一時間半かけて回りました。
コースの中盤では見晴らしの良い丘の上で記念撮影をしてもらい、とても良い思い出になりました。
クアロア牧場のように乗馬以外のアクティビティがたくさんある訳ではないですが、乗馬だけをゆっくり楽しみたい方にはとてもオススメです!

Our initial plan was to do some snorkeling, but at Kailua Beach, the wind was strong, the waves were rough, and the water was murky with sand, so we gave up on snorkeling. Plus, it was very cold! We changed our plans and rented bicycles for $10, allowing us to head into town and enjoy the local atmosphere, which was different from Waikiki, while cycling. We rode our bikes all the way to Lanikai Beach and were amazed by the beautiful scenery. The famous Bob's Pizza was incredibly delicious.
Since you can organize your free time as you wish, I think those who want to spend their time freely will really enjoy it. We had a great time.
There are also a few Japanese staff members, which is reassuring. They provide lockers with passcodes, so you can store your valuables. We received kind assistance from a staff member named Emiko. Thank you!

I participated with four adults and my one-and-a-half-year-old nephew. I was hoping for low tide at the sandbar, but it was up to my knees and thighs. Still, the weather was great, and I was amazed at how beautiful it was! My nephew brought a child-sized float and had a blast floating around!
We played and had a BBQ on the boat! The hamburgers were absolutely delicious, and I even finished what my nephew left behind! The meat was freshly grilled, so it was incredibly tasty! My father is quite particular about food, but he keeps saying how good the hamburgers were since we returned home.
It was really delicious! They were considerate of my nephew, making his hamburger early and checking on him to keep him happy. Everyone was so kind to him! After the meal, we went sea turtle watching and snorkeling, which was also a lot of fun!
It started to drizzle a little, but it stopped quickly, and we enjoyed ourselves completely. The crew was fantastic, and it was such a fun tour! I'm really glad we booked this tour! My family is still reminiscing about our memories in Hawaii. Once my nephew is old enough to remember, I plan to book this tour again!

It was cloudy, not rainy, on the day of the trip. I was happy to see more sea turtles than I expected. I even saw baby sea turtles! I thought the sandbar was a bit disappointing as it was only about waist-deep, making it feel more like an island. However, I was satisfied with the snorkeling and saw a lot of fish. If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to explore the sandbar properly and snorkel a bit longer. It was a little chilly that day, so I appreciate the consideration shown.

We had a nice day out. The kayaking trip was nice, not strenuous at all and fun to go with. It was just us two with our guide who took us out to a small rock island known for nesting birds. We didn't see any as we were there at the wrong time of year. It was still nice to have a little wander around. The guide was informative and flexible and took us for a kayak showing us a local beach After spending a couple hours kayaking we returned our kayaks and they provided two bikes and some snorkelling gear which was nice was to spend the remainder of our afternoon. Pick-up was punctual and hassle free. The staff were very friendly. Would definitely recommend. If you're after something a bit more challenging though, they do also do a longer guided tour to some cool looking island a bit further away.

Overall, it was cloudy, but it was great that it was sunny during the dolphin watching by boat and at the water play area.
The weather had not been good for about a week, and there was a possibility that we might not see any dolphins, but we were able to see a pod of about 20 dolphins and a sea turtle, which was amazing.
*Some people were feeling nauseous, so I think it would be a good idea to take motion sickness medication with you or bring some along.
全体的に曇りでしたが、ボートで向かうイルカウォッチング、水上遊び場所では晴れていて良かったです。
1週間程天候が良くなく、イルカを見ることが出来ない可能性があるとのことでしたが、無事に20匹程の群れとウミガメを見ることが出来て最高でした。

The crew were efficient alerts for topknot.i would recommend this to everyone I wish I had brought my 7 year old grandson. The cute old guy playing the guitar set the mood and all was well with the world we were in Hawaii We got to see lots sea turtles!! If you swim this will exceed your expectations if was fun watching the kids snorkel and we could tell them from the boat where the turtles were! I was setting next to Japanese prince or something because when I tried to talk to him he ignored me so I told the crew that spoke Japanese to tell him it’s was fun visiting with him he laughed and nodded at me

However, maybe because it was January, it was really cold out on the water, and I couldn't fully enjoy snorkeling, which was a bit disappointing.

I was glad to encounter more sea turtles than I had imagined. The snorkeling was organized in a way where participants moved along the coral reef in a line, so I was focused on keeping pace with those in front, behind, and beside me, leaving me little room to leisurely enjoy the underwater scenery. It would have been nice to have a bit more space to take my time and enjoy it.
想像以上にたくさんのウミガメに出会えて良かったです。シュノーケリングはツアー参加者が連なる形で珊瑚礁に沿って進むスタイルだったので、前後左右の参加者のペースに合わせる事に精一杯でゆっくりと海中の景色を楽しむ余裕がありませんでした。もう少し間隔を空けてゆっくり楽しめたら良かったです。

About seven years ago, I participated in a sandbar tour. It was in September. I joined with my kindergarten son, and it became a wonderful memory...
This time, during my year-end and New Year trip, I went to Hawaii for the first time in seven years and participated in the sandbar tour again, but at this time of year, it was rainy, windy, and too cold in the water! For snorkeling, it was so cold that my kindergarten daughter couldn't even get in the water.
The adults were doing their best to get in, but if the weather could be predicted better, it might have been a more enjoyable tour! The staff were very kind, talking to everyone and sharing various stories, which made the tour time enjoyable, but it was still too cold for me.
7年ほど前にサンドバーツアーに参加した事があります。しかし時期は9月でした。幼稚園の息子と参加して、良い思い出になりました…
で、今回年末年始の旅行で7年ぶりにHawaiiに行き、良い思い出のサンドバーツアーに参加しましたが、この時期、雨、風、海の中、寒すぎ!シュノーケリングなんて、寒くて海に入る事自体、幼稚園の娘なんて無理でした。
大人の方達は、頑張って入ってましたけど、天候をよく予測出来れば、楽しいツアーになるのかもしれませんね!

I participated in an early morning tour. On the bus ride there, the instructions were explained very clearly and cheerfully, and they taught us pressure points for motion sickness, which made the journey enjoyable. I tend to get motion sickness easily, so even with the pressure points and medication, I still felt sick. However, I was lucky that day to see both dolphins and sea turtles! Although we were told not to chase the dolphins, they actually approached us, and we had to move aside (laughs). Even when the dolphins were out of sight, I could hear their calls when I put my ears to the water, which felt quite mysterious. The sea turtles were far away, but I was still moved to see them. I couldn't eat the hamburger at the time because I was feeling sick, but it was delicious when I had it after returning home. I didn't bring much money, so I was disappointed that I couldn't order the photo data. Overall, it was a satisfying experience, and if I have the chance, I would like to participate again while enduring the motion sickness.

I was moved by the beauty of Kailua Beach. In the morning, I rented a bicycle and took lunch to Lanikai Beach. It was quiet, relaxing, and I was enchanted by the beauty of the beach. Along the way, we got caught in the rain, but everyone managed to wait it out by covering themselves with towels or moving around. Riding the bicycle after the rain felt great.
In the afternoon, we had a kayak tour with our guide. It was my first time, but with the staff's support, I was able to get on the kayak, and I was thrilled when we started paddling. The scenery was amazing! We were blessed with good weather and no wind. Our guide, Tomo, taught us about the island's ecology and took photos for us. Tomo remembered everyone's names. The two hours flew by, and even though I was a bit tired, I enjoyed dragging the kayak back to the shop. Thanks to the staff's prompt guidance.
I want to participate again. The kayaking, beach, and other activities are all appealing, and I also want to visit the town—it's such a wonderful place that it leaves you wanting more.
カイルアビーチの美しさに感動でした。
午前中は自転車を借り、ランチを持ってラニカイビーチへ。静かで、のんびり、そしてビーチの美しさにうっとり。途中、雨に降られましたが、みんなタオルをかけたり、移動したりで雨宿りしてやり過ごしてました。雨上がりの自転車が気持ち良かった。

The sandbar, which was also used for filming Pirates of the Caribbean, is a place I wanted to visit in the best condition! I predicted the tidal conditions in Kaneohe Bay, hoping that the sandbar might appear, and decided to join the trip with that expectation.
The result was a complete disappointment. Not only was there no sandbar, but I was a bit disheartened to find the water up to my thighs.
However, there’s no doubt that the sea was beautiful, and the strange sensation of being in shallow water despite being offshore was nice.
I didn’t join without doing any research; I had considered the worst-case scenario, so while I was disappointed, I still had a good time.
Just a note, January in Hawaii can get cold when the sun goes behind the clouds! I was shivering while wrapped in a towel on the boat.
The hamburger for lunch tasted especially good, probably because I had it on the boat.
For those thinking of participating, I believe you’ll be satisfied if you join with the mindset of just wanting to see the beautiful sea, without too much expectation.
パイレーツオブカリビアンの撮影にも使用されたというサンドバー。最高の状態で行ってみたい!と思い、カネオヘ湾の潮の状態を予測し、もしかしたらサンドバーが現れるかも!と期待して参加しました。
結果は、惨敗でした。サンドバーどころか、太ももまで漬かるレベルで少しガッカリ。
でも、綺麗な海である事は間違いなく、沖合いにも関わらず浅瀬という不思議な感覚は、良かったと思っています。
何も調べずに参加した訳ではなく、最悪のケースも想定して行ったので、ガッカリではありますが充分楽しめました。
ただ、1月のハワイは太陽が陰ると寒い!ブルブル震えながら船の上でタオルに包まれてました。
ランチのハンバーガーは、船の上で頂いたからか、とても美味しく感じました。
これから参加しようと思っている方は、期待しずぎず、綺麗な海を見に行く感覚で参加されたら満足されると思います。

On the morning of the day I had a reservation, I received a message from the staff at VELTRA saying, "The waves are too high today, and the tour cannot proceed..." They explained the refund and rescheduling process, and I was able to reschedule for the next day. Their response was very professional, and I had no worries at all. I was a bit anxious the next day, but since I didn’t receive a call, I thought everything was fine and headed to the pickup location. However, it turned out to be the day of an annual parade, and the roads were heavily congested. After waiting for the bus for an hour... (I wondered if this could have been anticipated since it happens every year, but all the other tours and buses heading to the airport were also delayed, so I thought it might just be something you have to accept in Hawaii with a big heart, haha). It seemed that the street where we were supposed to be picked up was particularly congested, so the bus stopped on a larger road, and two staff members (one of whom was Japanese) ran to greet us. A large, beautiful bus came to pick us up. Once on the bus, they began with an apology for the delay, introduced the staff, and explained the schedule and important notes in English followed by Japanese. There was also information about purchasing a USB for photos and videos taken on the trip, as well as renting wetsuits. Those who purchased the photo/video package on the way to the destination received a wristband as a gift (one for each participant) and a $5 discount. It seems that if you stay close to the photographer, you might get more photos taken. Upon arriving at the harbor, we used the restroom and borrowed fins and goggles. (We also tried on the wetsuits we rented on the bus here.) Once we found the right size, we boarded the boat. After boarding, we set off to look for dolphins, and during that time, there was another explanation, and we sang a Hawaiian song to show respect for the ocean and its creatures while offering flowers. The cheerful Hawaiian staff jumped into the sea as soon as we reached the dolphin spot and swam to the location of the dolphins. Unfortunately, we didn’t encounter any turtles or whales, but we did meet dolphins, which was an emotional experience that allowed us to feel connected to nature. After that, we moved to another location where we had free time to enjoy snorkeling and kayaking. On the way back to the harbor, we enjoyed taro cheese burgers, bite-sized pineapple, and a small bag of chips each. The staff also performed hula dancing, and everyone participated in dancing together. It was a fun time throughout, and my whole family was very satisfied. Since we purchased the USB, we went to pick it up at an office near DFS in Waikiki that evening, and the Japanese man at the office was very friendly and approachable. You can also receive an eco-bag at this office. I definitely want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii. If you have children, I think the 11 AM departure plan would be better to avoid putting too much strain on them. Even if you usually don’t get motion sickness, I think it’s wise to take motion sickness medication as a precaution.
予約をしていた日の朝、VELTRAさんのスタッフの方から「本日は波が高く催行不可能となりました…」と連絡があり、返金・振り替えなどの説明があり、翌日へ振り替えてもらいました。もちろんきちんとした対応で、何の心配もありませんでした。次の日も心配でしたが、電話が来なかったので大丈夫なんだなと思いピックアップ場所へ。しかしその日は年に一度のパレードの日だったらしく道路は大渋滞。バスを待つこと1時間…。(毎年の事なので事前に予測できないのかな?とは思いましたが、他のツアーも、空港へ向かう予約のバスもどれもこれも全てが遅れていたのでハワイでは仕方がないのかな?と思う大きな心が必要です(笑))我が家のピックアップ場所の通りが特に渋滞していたようなので大きい道路にバスを停めスタッフの方が2人(1人は日本人)で走って迎えに来てくれました。大きい素敵なバスがお迎えに来てくれていました。バスに乗るとまず、遅れたお詫びから始まりスタッフの紹介、今日のスケジュールや注意事項などを英語に続き日本語で説明してくれます。バスの中で写真や動画を収めたUSBの購入、ウエットスーツのレンタルなどについても説明があります。行きのバスで写真・動画のセットを購入した人はリストバンドのプレゼント(参加人数分)、5㌦の割引がありました。カメラマンの方の近くにいると多めに撮ってもらえるような気がします。ハーバーに着くと、トイレを済ませフィン・ゴーグルを借ります。(バスの中でレンタルしたウエットスーツもここで試着してみます)サイズを合わせて、OKであれば船に乗り込みます。乗船後、イルカを探しに行きますがその間、再度説明があり、海や生き物に敬意を表すためのハワイの歌を歌って花を捧げます。陽気なハワイアンのスタッフ、イルカのポイントに着いたらすぐに海へ飛び込みイルカの場所まで泳いでいきます。残念ながらかめ、くじらには会えませんでしたが、イルカに出会え自然を感じられ感動でした。そのあとは別の場所へ移動し、シュノーケリングやカヤックなどで遊ぶ自由時間があります。ハーバーまで帰港する際にタロイモのチーズバーガー、パイナップル1口サイズを1つ小袋のチップスを一人一袋食べながら帰っていきます。スタッフがフラダンスも踊ってくれ、参加者皆で踊ったりもします。終始楽しい時間で家族みんな大満足です。我が家はUSBを購入したので、その日の夕方ワイキキのDFS近くにあるオフィスへ取りに行きオフィスにいた日本人の男性もとても気さくで感じのいいかたでした。エコバックはこのオフィスでもらえます。次回ハワイへ行った際には是非また参加したいです。お子さんがいらっしゃる場合は、11時出航プランにした方が子供の負担にならないと思います。普段酔わなくても酔い止めは予防として飲むべきだと思います。

Staff are nice. Lunch was simple but tasty. When we went there, sandbar was not very low tide and we had rain. So most people stayed at the boat as it was too cold being in the water. Snorkel was nice. It was nice that the staff are watching us for safety when we were in the water. We had to wait for return shuttle for 30 min as there was some misunderstanding between the transportation company and the tour company. While waiting for our shuttle, We saw puffer fish at the marina where boat launch/stay. It was nice surprise.

The transparent marine blue sea.
However, on this day, the temperature was unthinkably low for Hawaii.
I could only stay in the water for about five minutes because it was so cold.
In front of the camera, I smiled broadly and said "cheese!" without showing how I felt!
I made some great memories.
The BBQ lunch made by a voluptuous woman was delicious!
透きとおるマリンブルーの海。
ただこの日はハワイではありえない程の気温。
寒くて5分くらいしか海に入っていられなかったのだ。
カメラの前ではそれを感じさせない満面の笑顔でハイチーズ!
思い出作りをしてきました。
ボリュウミーな女性が作ってくれたBBQランチは美味しかったよー。

It seems that the sandbar doesn't appear every time! It looks like you can only stand on the beautiful sandy beach during low tide, and that information wasn't provided. Just before arriving at the sandbar, I was told that I could go in up to my knees today! I was looking forward to standing on the sandbar, so it was disappointing.
Also, it mentioned that there would be a BBQ lunch, but it was just hamburgers, beans, and snacks! I was imagining meat and seafood, so I was very disappointed. I felt quite let down by participating in this tour.
サンドバーが毎回現れるわけではないそうです!引き潮じゃないと綺麗な砂浜の上には立てないみたいでその情報が掲載されてなかったような、、
サンドバーに着く直前に今日は膝上までですが入れますとのこと!サンドバーに立てるのを楽しみにして申し込みましたが残念でした。
またBBQランチ付きと買いてありましたがハンバーガーとビーンズとスナックだけでした!お肉、海鮮などを想像してたのにとても残念でした。このツアーに参加してとても残念に感じました。

This experience was one of a kind. To see the island from the back of a horse was truly special. At one point in the tour, you are able to see the curvature of the island on three sides, something that was remarkable to see. I highly recommend this tour!
Aloha,
Thank you very much for your kind review! We are happy that you had a nice time here at Gunstock Ranch and hope to see you again soon.
Mahalo,

I had high expectations for the main event of my trip to Hawaii, but I didn't see any dolphins at all. I understand that it's a wild animal, so it's not surprising. Even when they said, "It's a whale!" it was too far away, and even with my contact lenses, I couldn't see it well. They worked hard to find dolphins, and since we waited on the boat for a long time, I ended up feeling seasick, even though I usually don't take motion sickness medication. I hoped to do a lot of snorkeling since I couldn't see any dolphins, but it ended rather quickly. I think it was a stroke of luck that I got to see a sea turtle! They took a lot of photos, but honestly, if you don't buy a USB, you won't see anything, so I recommend purchasing it on the bus if you want to keep those memories. For lunch, I think "light snack" is a better description than "lunch." Later, I received an email saying, "Here are today's photos," but there were no attachments... I didn't even know who to contact about it. I think I might have had too high expectations. I received a discount voucher for the next time since I didn't see any dolphins, but to be honest, I'm not sure if I would want to participate again.
ハワイ旅行のメインイベント、くらいに思って期待しておりましたが、全くイルカに逢えませんでした。
野生の生き物なので仕方のないこととは思います。
鯨だよ!と言われてもかなり遠くてコンタクト着用していてもよく分からなかったです。
一生懸命イルカを探してくれて、長いこと船上で待機していたので普段は酔い止めを飲まない私でも船酔いしてしまいました。
イルカが見れなかった分、たくさんシュノーケリングができればと思いましたが、案外あっさり終わってしまいました。
ウミガメが見られたのは不幸中の幸いかなと思います!
写真を沢山撮ってもらいましたが、正直USBを買わない人は何も見られないので、思い出として欲しい方はバスの中で購入を希望しておいた方がいいと思います。
お昼もランチというか軽食という表現がベストかと思います。
後ほど、今日の写真です、とメールが届きましたが写真は添付されておらず…どこに問い合わせていいのかも分からず…
ちょっと期待し過ぎたかなと思いました。
イルカが見れなかったので次回割引券頂きましたが、次回も参加したいかと聞かれたら正直微妙なところです。

Friendly staff, beautiful surroundings, not too long, not too short. Worth the dollars. If same company, I took a Capt. Bob zodiac adventure Kauai about 30+ years ago, great time then as well. I think Capt. Bob was the actual Capt. of our zodiac.

It would have been amazing to see the sea turtles up close. It was a bit chilly, which was unfortunate. But it was incredibly beautiful and wonderful. The guide was also very engaging, and I had a great time. Thank you!
ウミガメがもっと近くで見れたら最高でした。
肌寒かったのが残念。
でもめちゃ綺麗で素敵でした。
ガイドさんも盛り上げてくれて楽しかったです。
ありがとうございます。

As shown in the photo, there was no emergence of the sandy beach from the sea, and the water reached up to my knees. Also, it was cloudy and windy that day, and I couldn't help but wonder why it was so cold in Hawaii. While snorkeling may be the main focus, I would like to see tours that are centered around the sandy beach as well.
写真にあるように海から砂浜が浮き出てくるようなことはなく、膝上程度まで海水に浸かりました。又当日は曇りで風もありハワイなのにこんなに寒いのはなぜ、といいような感じでした。シュノーケルがメインなのかもしれませんが、砂浜メインのツアーも企画して欲しいと思います。
