ハンズ・ヒーデマン　サーフィンレッスン

Surfing experience サーフィン体験

Reviewed by: のりぴょん

A few years ago, I signed up for a "surfing experience" here. This time was my second, but since I'm still almost a beginner, I took a beginner lesson. Because the other participants were late, it ended up being a group lesson for just the two of us, which felt like a private lesson. The instructor was friendly and easy to talk to. My Japanese is at a word level, but it wasn't a problem.

As for surfing itself, the instructor pushed me from behind and helped me with the timing, which made it really easy to ride the waves (though it felt a bit like cheating...). I think they will adjust the lessons as your level improves, so I believe it's a great place.

The receptionist speaks Japanese, so I think it's fine even if you're worried about your English. Next time I go, I definitely want to take a lesson here again.

数年前に１回「体験サーフィン」としてここのを申し込みました。
今回は２回目だけどほぼ初心者ということで初心者用レッスンをしてもらいました。
他の参加者が寝坊？だったために二人でグループレッスン＝蝉プライベートでした。
先生は気さくで話をしやすかったです。
日本語は単語レベルですが、問題ありませんでした。

サーフィン自体は、先生が後ろから押してくれて、タイミングを教えてくれるという形なのですごく楽に波に乗れました（インチキですが・・・）。
レベルがあがればそれにあわせて教えてくれると思うので、いいところだと思います。

受付の人は日本語問題ないので、英語に不安があっても大丈夫だと思いますよ。
次回、また行く時にはぜひここでレッスンを受けたいと思いました。

伝統ルアウ＆ハワイアンショー「ワイキキ・スターライト・ルアウ」フラ&ファイヤーダンスの本格ディナーショー　＜ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ＞

Full of impact! 迫力満点！

Reviewed by: choromaru

I went to a luau show. I wasn't expecting much, as I didn't plan to go all the way to the Polynesian Cultural Center.

However, I was pleasantly surprised. Even though I didn't understand the language, it felt like everyone could participate. The final fire dance was breathtaking. The dancers looked like they were having so much fun, which made it enjoyable for us too.

The meeting point was a bit hard to find, and the guidance wasn't sufficient, so I was a bit confused. I paid extra for good seats, but those who got in early were able to sit in the front. To get in early, you should stay a bit away on the Ala Moana side rather than at the meeting point. I think the guidance was provided early.

ルアウショーに行ってきました。
あまり期待していなかったのですけど、
ポリネシア文化センターとかまで行く気はなかったもので。

でも、いい方に裏切られました。
言葉はわからなくても、みんなで参加できた感じです。
最後のファイアーダンスは圧巻です。
ダンサーは皆さん、とっても楽しそうに踊っていて、
それがまた楽しかったです。

集合場所がちょっとわかりずらいのと、案内も十分では

プラス料金でいい席を取りましたが、そのなかでも
早く会場に入ることができた方が一番前に座れます。
早く会場に入るには、
集合場所よりもアラモアナ側で遠巻きにしていること。

I recommend it for those who can't swim, get seasick, or small children who want to see marine life.
You can see a lot of sharks and tropical fish, and the kids were very happy!
Since it's air-conditioned, I recommend bringing a light jacket.

It was my second time, but it was my friend's first. Once we got on the welcome bus, it felt like we were in a different world. The lively conversation filled with jokes was so engaging that even with our basic English skills, we found ourselves laughing without fully understanding. Just like last time, there were no other Japanese people around, and it was an entirely different experience. Everything at Paradise Cove was truly wonderful, and the excitement continued on the return bus—an absolutely perfect tour.

私は、二度目でしたが、友人は初めて。お迎えのバスに乗ると、もう別世界　という感じ。ペラペラとジョークを交えてのトークは、英語入門程度の私たちも、つい訳も分からず、笑ってしまう不思議な空間。前回と同じく日本人は見当たらず、異空間　全開でした。パラダイスコーブのすべても　たいへん素晴らしく、帰りのバス内もワクワクで　満点のツアーです。

I applied for the Golden Circle Premium, but I was very disappointed as my seat was in a backstage-like area. I had high expectations for my first luau show. I arrived early, but the ticket exchange was not prioritized, and there were people who already had tickets while others were waiting in line, which was disappointing due to the lack of guidance. It felt like the seating was grouped by foreigners and Japanese. The food was delicious.

Before boarding the submarine, we traveled by boat, and the view from the sea was amazing. The performance... I was surprised when the submarine suddenly appeared. I boarded the submarine with high expectations. However, I was disappointed that there were fewer types of fish than I had imagined... I wanted to see turtles.

イルカ大学　イルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカと泳ぐプランも！マリンアクティビティも充実＜ランチ付き／日本語／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可＞

I experienced a rush of emotion and excitement all at once! 感動と感激を一気に味わいました！

Reviewed by: Kei&Tomoe

I set out to find the dolphins, riding a ship south from the port on the West Coast. It took a while to spot them, but I finally discovered their dorsal fins bobbing up and down in the distance. Watching their movements and timing my drop into the water, I was determined not to give up until I saw the dolphins, even as the navigator urged us to hurry! When the signal came, I put my face in the water and looked around, but I couldn't see them... However, I could clearly hear their calls! They would definitely come! I shouted in my heart, "We're here!" and continued to chase the pod. When I looked into the water again at the navigator's signal... there they were!! Dozens of them swimming right below me! Overwhelmed with joy, tears filled my goggles. There was no time to cry; I had to swim with them! As I kicked and searched desperately, they came back right next to me! And there were even more dolphins than before!! My mind went blank, and I desperately reached out to get closer. The dolphins continued to swim beneath us, and even when we were on the ship, they stayed behind us. I wondered if our feelings had reached them... "A huge success!!!" I high-fived with the navigator! We then headed a bit north to the snorkeling point. There, deep in the ocean, the sea turtle principal quietly guarded everything in the sea. Colorful little fish swam around, and when I threw them some bread, they bravely approached to eat. I felt like I had forgotten everything that had happened and had become one with the ocean. After that, everyone enjoyed paddleboarding, kayaking, and snorkeling as the lessons came to an end. On the way back to the port, we filled our stomachs with handmade cheeseburgers (they were really delicious!), relaxed to the crew's live ukulele performance, and danced to the Nanakuri Ondo, feeling the rhythm... Everything was so much fun, and I was extremely satisfied!!!! Swimming was honestly tough, but I decided in my heart that I would definitely go see the dolphins again. It was an activity that made me sweat and truly enjoy! I highly recommend it!!!

ハワイでパラセーリング　高さ120m／150mの上空からワイキキとダイアモンドヘッドの絶景を鑑賞！＜ヒルトン・ワイキキ＞

It was fun. 楽しかったです

Reviewed by: hawaii biginner

I went to Hawaii for the first time.

We rode a boat with about ten people, but everyone except us was speaking in English, which made me a bit anxious. (They provide the minimum necessary information in broken Japanese.)

Also, the return bus pickup was not smooth, and for us who don't understand English, we were somewhat worried, wondering, "When will they come to pick us up?" "Will they even come to pick us up?" "Are we waiting in the wrong place?"

The staff there will take photos of you while parasailing for $30, so if you want photos, it's better to bring some money. (We only had the bare minimum, so we couldn't buy any.)

The parasailing itself was very enjoyable, and I was extremely satisfied!! Next time, I plan to bring enough money to participate properly.

初めてハワイに行きました。

１０人ぐらいでボートに乗って海にでるのですが、
私たち以外全員英語で会話をしているので、弱冠不安でした。
（最低限必要な情報は片言の日本語で説明してくれます）

また帰りのバスの迎えもスムーズではなく、英語がわからない私たちにとっては「いつ迎えにくるのだろう？」「そもそも迎えにきてくれるのだろうか？」「待ってる場所が違うのかな？」など多少不安にかられました。

向こうのスタッフがパラセイリング中の写真を＄３０で撮ってくれるので、写真を希望する方はお金を持って行った方がいいです。（私達は必要最低限のお金しかもっていなかったので、買えませんでした。）


パラセイリング自体はとても楽しく大満足です！！
次回はちゃんとお金を持って、参加しようと思います。

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Such great fun! And what a bargain!

Reviewed by: Mrs. Means

My husband & I are in Oahu in our honeymoon and we saw this and had to book it. The staff is so friendly and helpful! We sat on the nets, which going there was fun and what you would expect, but after snorkeling they take you sailing for a unique look at the island, but beware if you are sitting on the net..you WILL get soaked...but it truly is so much fun! They take you to the reef where turtles go to go their backs cleaned by fish. My recommendation when you swim to watch the turtles is to hang out on the side of the group. Most people will huddle over the turtles, but the have to come up for air, so if you are not in the chunk of people you will get a closer look because they will head your way for air! We saw lots of them and even some baby turtles! The fish in the water are beautiful as well and will swim all around you. I think it is definitely worth the $51! Book today and don't forget your underwater camera like I did!

2.5-Hour Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Tour with Cocktails from Hilton

Not for first timers

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I attended this with my husband and son. They are both strong swimmers, but I am not. I've never snorkeled before, and this is not where I should have tried it for the first time. I had a life jacket on, so I knew I was safe, but the water was very deep, and the water had 4-6 foot swells. We had to swim against the current to get to the turtles. The waves were too much for me, I got tired quickly, I was uncomfortable with it being so deep, and the waves so high, so I got back in the boat. My husband and son enjoyed it though, and got up close to the turtles. At one point some spinner dolphins approached the group, but because everyone is looking down, only a few of the swimmers saw them. The leader stayed with the group, and I felt the staff were excellent. After the snorkeling they put up the sail and we took off past Diamond Head, looking for whales. We didnt see any, but we spotted some bottle nose dolphins in the distance. And the ride was fun. The lunch was very basic

ハンズ・ヒーデマン　サーフィンレッスン

Even beginners can stand on the board. 初心者でもボードに立てます

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in a semi-private lesson with my 11-year-old child. The description states "children who can understand Japanese from age 5 and above," but the application form only displayed a pricing option for "adults aged 14 and above," which raised the question, "Can children participate?" When I inquired by phone, I was told that "for group lessons, we require participants to be 14 years or older." I think it would be better if this information was presented more clearly.

There are Japanese staff members at the office, so you can inquire in Japanese if you have any questions. The lesson coach is a foreigner and does not speak Japanese fluently. However, during the lesson, they provide instructions in simple English and also use Japanese for commands like "right" and "stand up." I think it's okay even if you're not good at English, but it might not be suitable for those who are looking for complete Japanese support.

The lesson content is very kind, and at first, they push out the board at just the right timing, so you can stand on the board relatively quickly. My child doesn't have great athletic ability, but by the third wave, they were able to stand up and had a lot of fun.

I thought the price for the two-hour lesson was a bit high, but since they teach with great care, I would recommend it for complete beginners. For subsequent lessons or for adults only, I think group lessons would be fine.

You cannot bring valuables, but they sell a CD-ROM with lesson photos for $30 afterward.

　11歳の子供とふたりでセミプライベートレッスンに参加しました。
　説明に「5歳以上の日本語が理解できる子供」と書いてあるのですが、申し込みフォームには「14歳以上から大人」という料金選択しか表示されず、「子供も参加できるのか？」という疑問があり電話で問い合わせをしたところ「グループレッスンの場合は14歳以上を求めている」ということでした。もう少しわかりやすい表示があればよいと思いました。
　事務所には日本人スタッフがおり、わからないことは日本語で問い合わせをすることができます。レッスンコーチは外国人で、流暢に日本語を話す、というレベルではありません。しかしレッスン自体は簡単な英会話と、「右」とか「立ってー」とかは日本語で指示してくれます。英会話が苦手でも大丈夫だと思いますが、完全に日本語サポートを求めるかたにはむいていないかもしれません。
　レッスン内容はとても親切で、最初はちょうどいいタイミングでボードを押し出してくれるのでわりとすぐボードの上に立てるようになります。子供もあまり運動神経がいい方ではありませんが、3回目くらいの波から立ち上がることが出来てとても楽しんでいました。
　２時間のレッスン料金としてはすこし高いと思いましたが、とても親身になって教えてくれるので、まったく初めて、という方にはおすすめします。
　２回目以降や大人だけだったらグループレッスンでもいいと思います。
　貴重品は持っていけないのですが、レッスン写真を撮ったCD−ROMを１枚＄３０であとから販売してくれます。

If you don't mind heights but are a bit hesitant, you should be prepared.
For those with a fear of heights, think carefully (laughs).
Make sure to take motion sickness medication! Also, depending on the roughness of the waves, it might be impossible to take photos or videos, so it's a good idea to prepare $30 to have the staff take pictures for you.
Don't forget to tip. The photos turned out great◎

Even my wife, who is not good at swimming, had a great time smiling during the wild dolphin and sea turtle tour! 泳ぎが苦手な妻でも笑顔で体験♪野生のイルカ＆海亀ツアー

Reviewed by: Masaki　Ｓａｋａｉ

Following the Haleakalā Mountain star and sunrise trek on Maui, I participated in an active tour at sea, a wild dolphin and sea turtle cruise with Dolphin University. Under a cloudy sky, we boarded the shuttle bus early in the morning. The tour group consisted of families spanning three generations, and one participant, Mr. I, mentioned he was joining for the third consecutive day.

As we headed to our destination, we received explanations from Ms. Y, who had a vibe reminiscent of Miwa from Dream Come True. By the time we arrived at the dock, the sky had cleared, and we enjoyed a light breakfast of warm malasada before boarding the boat, where everyone prayed for the safety of our voyage with the crew.

As we approached the secret spot of Dolphin University, the crew guided us to shallow waters, bringing along over 100 wild dolphins they had spotted. Securing our buoyancy with wetsuits and life jackets, we donned our snorkels and masks and jumped into the sea. I jumped in ahead of my wife, intending to reassure her, but I got distracted by the crew's calls to "look down!" and forgot about her as I peered into the water. The dolphins swam around us, brushing against our bodies through the wetsuits. Sharing the ocean with wild dolphins was an emotional experience. My wife was completely absorbed in the underwater world with our daughter.

Any fear vanished in the excitement of encountering the dolphins. We expressed our gratitude to the dolphins that played with us for a while before heading to the sea turtle spot. There, we were fortunate to encounter more than five sea turtles. Mr. I, who was skin diving, went down to the ocean floor, getting really close to the turtles. Additionally, we fed the fish underwater, and my wife was having so much fun that we worried she wouldn’t return to the boat. Afterward, everyone enjoyed various marine sports, and the crew's attentiveness ensured a safe experience for everyone, from children to seniors! After finishing our cheeseburger lunch on the boat, we began our journey back. We wrapped up with ukulele performances and commemorative photos before passing the baton to those starting their day slowly.

The tour with the prestigious Dolphin University was a great success, fitting for our 32nd wedding anniversary, as evidenced by the smiles of my wife and daughter! I definitely want my dolphin-loving younger daughter, who couldn’t join us due to work commitments, to experience the wild dolphins and sea turtle snorkeling cruise!

マウイ島でのハレアカラ山のスター＆サンライズトレックに引き続き、海でのアクティブなツアーとしてイルカ大学の野生のイルカ、海亀クルーズに参加です。曇り空の中、早朝から迎えのバスに乗り込みます。ツアーの方々は若い方から３代に見受けられる家族連れまでで、一緒に乗り込んだI
さんはなんと３日連続参加とのことです。
ドリカムの美和さん調のＹさんの説明を受けながら
目的地に向かいます。船着き場に着くころには晴天の空が広がり、温かなマサラダで軽い朝食を頂き、船に乗り込みクルーと一緒に全員で航海？の安全をお祈りします。
イルカ大学丸秘のスポットに近づくころにはクルーの目が探した１００頭以上の野生のイルカを引き連れて浅瀬に誘導します。ウエットスーツとライフジャケットで浮力を確保し
スノーケル＆水中眼鏡を装着し、足から海に飛び降ります。
妻の先に飛び降り、安心させる筈がクルーの下を見て！下を見て！という声に妻を忘れて海を覗き込みます。イルカの群れが泳ぎ回り、スエットスーツ越しに身体に当たってきます。野生のイルカと同じ海中を共有する体験は感動的です。妻は娘と一緒に海の中を我を忘れてのぞきこんでいます。
恐怖感はイルカとの遭遇の感動で消え去ったようです。
ツアーの方々の興奮する姿にも驚くことなく暫く一緒に遊んでくれたイルカに感謝しながら次は海亀スポットに向かいます。ここでも運良く５匹以上の海亀に遭遇することが出来ました。スキンダイビングのIさんは海の底まで潜り、海亀のホントの近寄っています。また、海中の魚達への餌やりもあり、いつまでたっても船に戻って来ずに心配するくらいに楽しんでいたのが妻です。その後は各自マリンスポーツを楽しみ、子供からシニアまで安心して体験出来るのはクルーの気配り・目配りがあるからですね！船上でのチーズバーガーランチを終え帰路に付きます。ウクレレの演奏や記念撮影を終えて、ゆっくりスタートの方々にバトンタッチです。
３２年目の結婚記念日にふさわしい名門イルカ大学のツアーは大成功なのは妻と娘の笑顔が証明しています♪
仕事の都合で旅行に来れなかったイルカ大好きな次女にも
必ず体験させてあげたい野生のイルカ＆ウミガメ　シュノーケリング・クルーズでした！

This was my fifth dolphin tour in Hawaii, but it was my first time enrolling in Dolphin University. Swimming with the dolphin instructors is truly enjoyable! No matter how many times I experience it, I am always moved! Fortunately, my family has great chemistry with the dolphin instructors, and we can always swim with large pods. Dolphin University, as expected from a prestigious institution, offers outstanding service! Starting with morning malasadas, we had a lot of fun with dolphins, honu (sea turtles), marine sports like paddleboarding and kayaking, and hamburgers on the boat—this was the most fun I've ever had! I plan to re-enroll in the prestigious Dolphin University next time! Thank you for the wonderful time. P.S. I received the group photo via email!

ハワイでのイルカツアーは今回で５度目ですが、イルカ大学に入学するのは初めてでした。
でも、イルカ先生たちと泳ぐのはホントに楽しい♪
何度体験しても感動できます！
幸い、私達家族はイルカ先生と相性が良く、毎回必ず大きな群れと一緒に泳ぐことができます。
イルカ大学さんは、さすが名門だけあってサービス満点！
朝のマラサダから始まって、イルカ、ホヌ（ウミガメ）、マリンスポーツのパドルボート・カヤック、船上でのハンバーガーなど盛りだくさんで今までで一番楽しかったです♪
次回もまた名門イルカ大学に再入学するつもりです！
楽しい時間をありがとうございました。
P.S集合写真のメール届きましたよ(*^-^*)

I encountered many dolphins! たくさんのイルカに出会えました！

Reviewed by: megumi

I had a lot of anxiety on my first overseas trip, but with Yuriko-sensei, a Japanese teacher at Dolphin University, I was able to confidently enter the water and swim, even though it was my first experience.

As soon as we got on the boat, we spotted dolphins swimming! After learning about the prayer ceremony and the rules, we quickly entered the sea. It was a bit cold in mid-March, so I rented a wetsuit for $10. It felt more like swimming above where the dolphins were rather than swimming with them. But it was incredibly exciting! We also swam in another spot where there were lots of small fish close enough to touch with our hands, and we did activities like kayaking.

The hula dance we all did at the end was the best memory of my time in Hawaii. I highly recommend you go!

初めての海外旅行で不安もたくさんありましたが、イルカ大学は日本人のゆりこ先生がいるので、初めての経験でも安心して海に入って泳ぐことができました。
船に乗ってすぐにイルカが泳いでいるのを発見！お祈りの儀式やルールを教えて頂いたら早々に海に入りました。３月中旬で若干寒かったので、10ドルでウェットスーツ(つなぎ)を借りました。イルカと泳ぐというよりは、イルカが泳いでいるところの上を泳いでいるという感じでした。でもかなり興奮します！別の場所(小さな魚が手で触れるほど近いとろこにたくさんいる所)で泳いだり、カヤックなどをしたりしました。最後に参加者のみんなで踊ったフラダンスはハワイでの最高の思い出です。是非行ってみてください！

It's the best after all! ☆ やっぱり最高☆

Reviewed by: マイ

This is my fourth time participating. This time I joined alone. No matter how many times I participate, this tour is the best. The staff's service is excellent, and I can enjoy myself throughout. Swimming with wild dolphins, seeing sea turtles, eating hamburgers, and dancing the hula. It's very luxurious.

4回目の参加です。今回は1人で参加しました。何度参加してもこのツアーは最高です。スタッフの方の対応がとてもよく、終始楽しむことができます。野生のイルカと泳ぎ、海ガメを見て、ハンバーガー食べてフラダンスを踊る。とても贅沢です。

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort

MUST DO!!!

Reviewed by: Emily Garcia

I saved this luau for my last night in Hawaii and I booked the deluxe package and highly recommend it to anyone who can afford to spend the $150. It was definitely an awesome deal!
Tusi was our party guide. Awesome gorgeous guy that cracked jokes all night long.
Arriving at Paradise Cove we were immediately greeted with drinks (if you're 21+) and leis. If you are 21+ you'll need to bring your ID. Included in the deluxe package is a complimentary photo with some of the luau dancers (otherwise you pay $15). All the dancers are very attractive so you'll want this ;)
We arrived around 5pm and the actual dinner doesn't start until 7pm. You can snack before hand, but the dinner is SO good and filling that you might not have room for the whole meal if you eat before hand.
From 5-7pm they have all types of complimentary activities including temporary hawaiian tattoos, flower bracelet/headband crafts, canoe rides, shower of flower event, hula lessons, etc...
Make sure you bring money to
