It was my first time in Hawaii for our honeymoon, and everything was amazing! I joined this tour because I wanted to see wild dolphins, and with our Japanese guide Ken, I felt safe and enjoyed it from start to finish! He was very knowledgeable, and just listening to him was fun, but I never expected to see whales as well. I was told that if you see a whale's tail, happiness will come, so I'm looking forward to what’s next. This experience included a slide on the boat, which was more thrilling than I imagined! It was so much fun! I want to come back to Hawaii again for some kind of celebration.
ハネムーンで初めてのハワイでしたが全てが最高でした!野生のイルカが見たくてこのツアーに参加しましたが日本人ガイドのKENさんがいて最初から最後まで安心して楽しめました!知識が豊富で聞いてるだけでも楽しかったのにまさかクジラまで会えるとは思いませんでした。クジラの尾びれが見れたら幸せが訪れると教えて頂いたのでこれからが楽しみです。この体験では船に滑り台がついてて想像以上にスリル満載でした!楽しかったです!また何かの記念でハワイに戻ってきたいと思います。
It's a good idea to bring a jacket because it gets chilly after scuba diving!
スキューバダイビング後は冷えるので上着を持って行った方がいいです!

The weather wasn't great, but the waves were calm, so we were able to enjoy various activities. Other activities, like interacting with turtles at the deep sea or venue, can be quite challenging for children, but turtles also came to the sandbar, and the experience of seeing them up close in the shallow water was fantastic. I highly recommend it for families with kids. The staff who spoke Japanese (local people?) were very kind.
天気に恵まれなかったのですが、波が穏やかでしたので諸々楽しめました。他のアクティビティは深い海の底や会場でカメと触れ合うため子供には大変ですが、サンドバーにもカメがやってきてくれて、浅瀬でカメを間近に見れる体験は最高でした。子連れにこそおススメです。日本語を話せるスタッフさん(現地の方?)がとても親切でした。

The captain and staffs are amazing. They take good care of us and make sure we are safe while having fun. The boat provided spam musubi, chips, cookies, granola bars and drinks. We had fun playing SUP on the sandbar and the water is so clear. The snokeling is the most fun part of the tour. We were able to see sea turtle that swim by us so close. Highly recommended to join if you are coming to Hawaii.

**[Positive Aspects]**
During the transfer, the driver kindly introduced us to recommended restaurants along the way. He was very friendly and left a good impression.
We were able to see sea turtles. We took photos from the boat and also saw them swimming nearby while snorkeling.
It was great to take commemorative photos while doing activities like stand-up paddleboarding (SUP).
**[Negative Aspects]**
The time when you can see sandbars like those shown in guidebooks and on websites is quite limited. Although we were there during a relatively low tide, the sand was completely submerged, and the water level was above an adult's waist.
This is due to weather conditions, so there's not much that can be done, but on the day we participated, there were strong winds, and the current was quite fast. The SUP was being swept away, so it didn't feel like a leisurely activity, and we ended up exhausting ourselves.
Again, this is due to the weather, but because it had rained right before and there were strong winds during the activity, the sea didn't look very clear. (We didn't see many fish while snorkeling.)
Additionally, there were participants who were confused when they were told on-site that you cannot participate in snorkeling if you can't swim. I think it would be good to include this information in the participation guidelines.
**[Varies by Person]**
As mentioned by another reviewer, the Japanese-speaking staff used casual language throughout. While some may appreciate having someone who can communicate in Japanese during an activity abroad, others might find this somewhat rude. I think this depends on how individuals perceive the quality of service relative to the price paid.
Since the staff cannot judge how well someone can swim, I understand that self-assessment is necessary, but I think it would be helpful to have some criteria or steps to determine participation eligibility in shallow areas. Some people might feel like they were treated coldly or dismissed.
【良かった】
送迎の際にはドライバーの方が道中にあるおすすめレストランなど紹介してくれました。とても親切な方で好印象でした。
ウミガメを見ることができました。船上から写真を撮ることも、シュノーケリング中に近くを泳いでいるところを見ることもできました。
SUPなどしながら記念撮影できたのはよかったです。
【悪かった】
ガイドブックやサイトHPに掲載されている写真ようなサンドバーがみられる時期はかなり限られています。比較的干潮に近い時間帯でしたが砂は全く見えず、水位は大人の腰より上でした。
これは天候によるものなのでどうしようもないですが、自分たちが参加した日は強風で、潮の流れがかなり早かったです。SUPもどんどん流されてしまうので、優雅に遊ぶという感じではなく、体力を消耗しました。
これも天候によるので仕方ないですが、直前まで雨が降っていたことと、アクティビティの時間帯に強風が吹いていたため、海はあまりきれいに見えませんでした。(シュノーケリングはあまり魚を見つけられませんでした。)
また、平泳ぎができないとシュノーケリングには参加できない。ということを現場で伝えられて戸惑っている方がいました。参加時の注意事項に記載してもよいかと思いました。
【人による】
別の方も口コミで書かれていましたが、日本語スタッフの方は終始タメ口でした。
海外で参加するアクティビティにもかかわらず、日本語でコミュニケーションをとることが可能な方がいてくれるのでありがたい。ととらえる方もいると思いますし、応対がやや失礼に感じると思う方もいると思います。これは払った料金とサービスの質を各位がどうとらえるかによるかと思います。
どの程度泳げるのかはスタッフでは判断できないので自己判断というのは分からなくもないですが、目安となる基準や、浅瀬で参加可否を判断してもらうためのステップとかはあってもいいのではないかと思いました。人によっては冷たく突き放されたように感じてしまうかと思いました。

On this day, I had requested a Japanese tour for dolphin watching by myself, and as a result, I was able to have a one-on-one experience. The guide spent over an hour searching the sea to find dolphins, visiting various points, and finally, we were able to encounter them. Because they worked so hard for a long time, the excitement of that moment was immense.
The guide, Fuko, shared a lot of interesting facts about Hawaii, and I was able to enjoy my time on the boat throughout the trip. Although I had some swimming experience, it was my first time snorkeling, but thanks to the careful instruction I received, I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind. The lunch we had at the end of the tour was also very delicious, making it a fulfilling day that satisfied both my heart and my stomach.
この日は、私一人でイルカウォッチングの日本語ツアーをお願いしていたのですが、結果的に1対1で対応していただくことができました。
イルカを見つけるために、1時間以上にわたって海の上を探し回ってくださり、さまざまなポイントを巡った末、ついにイルカに出会うことができました。長い時間をかけて一生懸命探してくださったからこそ、その瞬間の感動はとても大きかったです。
ガイドのふうこさんはハワイに関する豆知識をたくさん教えてくださり、船に乗っている間も終始楽しく過ごすことができました。
また、泳ぎの経験はあったものの、シュノーケリングは初挑戦でしたが、とても丁寧に教えていただいたおかげで、安心して楽しむことができました。
ツアーの最後にいただいたお昼ご飯もとても美味しく、心もお腹も満たされる大満足の一日となりました。
I recommend that you definitely bring motion sickness medication! Also, if you can swim, diving might be better than dolphin watching!?

I participated in a tour from Waikiki by bus for the first time in Hawaii. It was early in the morning, and it took about an hour to reach the beach where we could see dolphins.

I read the reviews and thought, "I want to see dolphins, but I'm worried about seasickness." However, I gathered my courage and signed up.
In conclusion, as long as I took motion sickness medication, I was fine. I went with my family, and other families were fine too. It seems that standing at the front of the boat and looking out into the distance helps prevent seasickness.
There were also Japanese staff members, which made me feel very secure participating in the activity.
Although it was written that we wouldn't be able to swim with the dolphins, on the day of the event, we were able to swim with them. I was surprised to see the dolphins swimming quite deep. Even while the boat was moving, the dolphins swam alongside us as if they were racing, creating the best memories.

I almost drowned a little and got a cut, but the response from our guide, Izumi, was great. Thank you very much.
ちょっと溺れかけたのと、切り傷をしてしまい、ガイドさんのいづみさんの対応が、よかったです、

I used the first flight on the morning of December 30th for the New Year's holiday. The captain spoke in English, but then a female staff member named Izumi kindly explained everything in Japanese, which made my first snorkeling experience worry-free.
The weather was a bit cold, and it rained partway through, but not only were we able to see many sea turtles, we also got to swim with them.
There were other tours with various options that I considered, but I'm glad I chose Captain Cruise!
年末年始(12月30日)の朝一便を利用しました。
キャプテンは英語を使用されますがその後で女性スタッフのイズミさんが日本語で丁寧に説明してくださり、初めてのシュノーケリングも不安なく体験できました。
天候は少し寒く、雨も途中降ったりしましたが、ウミガメを沢山見ることができただけでなく、一緒に泳ぐことも出来ました。
色んなオプションが付く他社ツアーもあり、悩みましたが、キャプテンクルーズを選んでよかったです!
If you go in winter, depending on the weather, it can get cold on the return boat, so I recommend bringing a long-sleeve T-shirt or a lightweight UNIQLO Airism parka in addition to your rash guard. Al
冬に行く場合は天候によっては帰りの船で寒くなるので、ラッシュガード以外に長袖Tシャツや、薄手のUNIQLOエアリズムパーカーを持参することをお勧めします。
また、タオルは必須です!
Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea tour last year. I am very happy to hear that you encountered many sea turtles, which are said to bring happiness. I look forward to the day we can meet again. A hui hou! 🌺
昨年はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂きまして本当にありがとうございました。

I love dolphins, so I have wanted to participate for a long time, and this time I was finally able to join. The staff (especially Joanna and Ryuichi) were very kind and taught me a lot. I was almost a beginner at snorkeling, but it was fun.
Next time, I want to try dolphin swimming too!
イルカが好きなのでずっと参加してみたく、今回初めて参加できました。
スタッフの皆さん(特にJoanna, Ryuichiさん)も親切にいろいろ教えてくださり、シュノーケリングはほぼ初心者でしたが楽しかったです。
次回はドルフィンスイムもやってみたいです!
If you are prone to motion sickness, you might need to take anti-nausea medication or have ginger drinks or candies. It was quite bumpy.
酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだり生姜ドリンクや飴が必要かもしれません。結構揺れました。
Aloha! Dear K.H., thank you for participating in Dolphin University. We also appreciate the five stars. We're glad to hear that you encountered many dolphins. Thank you for your comments about Joanna and Ryuichi, as well as your feedback on the motion sickness medication. Please feel free to visit us again when you're in Hawaii. Mahalo nui and a hui hou!

This is my third time in Hawaii, but it was my first time participating in this tour. The movie location tour was enjoyable as there were many films I had seen. The Kaneohe Bay cruise had great weather, and I was able to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Additionally, the explanations about the culture and history were interesting and well done. Both tours had guides who were great at engaging the group and took plenty of photos for us. The lunch buffet was hearty and very delicious. There was a well-delivered lecture in Japanese at the beginning, which made it easy to relax and enjoy the experience.
数回目のハワイですが、初めて参加しました。
映画ロケ地巡りは、見た映画が多くあり楽しめました。カネオヘ湾クルーズも天気が良く、良い景色を楽しめました。また、文化、歴史の説明も興味深く良かったです。両ツアーともガイドさんは盛り上げ方が上手く、写真もたくさん撮ってくれました。ランチビュッフェはボリューム満点でとても美味しかったです。
最初に上手な日本語でのレクチャーがあるので安心して楽しめました。
The bus ride home took a little while, but it was easy because I could sleep on the way back.
帰りのバスは少し待ちますが、寝て帰れるので楽でした。

It's very spacious, and to get around, you can either ride in a car, take a bus, or ride a horse. I wanted to ride a horse, but since the course is long, I chose the bus considering the strain on my back. Unfortunately, there was no explanation in Japanese when we arrived, and the bus for this movie location tour also had no Japanese at all. That's a bit disappointing. I recommend reading the explanations in advance. Next time, I would like to try zip-lining as well.
とても広くて、見て回るにはクルマに乗るか、バスに乗るか、馬に乗るか。
馬に乗りたかったけれども、長いコースなので、腰への負担を考えてバスにしました。着いたときの説明も、この映画ロケ地ツアーのバスも日本語は全くないです。それがちょっと残念。事前に説明を読んでおくことをおすすめします。
次回はジップラインもやってみたいなあ。
I recommend downloading and reading the explanation of the movie location tour in advance.
事前に映画ロケ地ツアーの説明を、ダウンロードして、読んでおくことをオススメします。

My friends and I had a great time during this luau! There were a lot of activities to learn traditional manners of cooking, delicious food to eat, and an outstanding show with dance from all the Polynesian islands. I would truly recommend this experience to everyone! Everyone that worked there was very personable as well. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to actually explore the valley but I heard great things about that. I would definitely leave time before to go to the waterfall.

Wonderful female captain Hosanna and her crew with tons of experience and warm personalities. We went in November 2025- so many turtles and sealife, great play equipment and knowledgeable crew willing to help ensure our baby girl had a great time, the transportation from Waikiki to the boat launch was clutch! So great all around! And spam masubi and snacks on the boat ride was icing on the cake! Highly recommend 10 out of 10!!
Bring sunscreen and for toddlers a thicker wetsuit makes the experience most enjoyable!
Thank you for joining our tour with your family. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the experience and appreciate your "10 out of 10" recommendation.
Captain Hosanna and our crew look forward to welcoming you back for your next adventure with us. A hui hou🌺
