Oahu
I wanted to experience walking in the ocean, so I participated. I was a bit hesitant because the tide wasn't ideal on the day I could go, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. I got to see sea turtles, and the weather was great. When in doubt, it's best to participate! The hamburger was delicious too. The staff were friendly and cheerful, and I was very satisfied.
一度、海の中を歩く経験をしてみたく、参加しました。行ける日が今一の潮の引き加減だったので、悩みましたが、十分楽しめました。ウミガメも見れて、お天気にも恵まれ、やはり、悩んだ時は参加するに限ります!
ハンバーガーも美味しかったです。スタッフさん達が綺麗で明るく、とっても満足できました。
My sister and I joined the very friendly staff on a trip in the early mornings. We were only a group of 8. Everyone got a brief introduction and was set up with their gear and life jackets. Fun vacation music playing in the background we headed out into open waters on the speed boat which was so much fun in itself. The view towards the city with Diamond's Head in the background, touched by the rising sun was mesmerising! Can recommend to tag along even if you just want to watch your friend fly & not yourself.
When we were up both staff members explained all you need to know. We noticed with other passengers that even if you don't speak English very well they will go out of their way to show you what to do. But it is very easy. Time to fly! We did the 1000ft and it was the bomb! The view was exhilarating! You can totally hang loose and relax in your gear to enjoy the absolute beauty of a sight.on the way down we had so much fun when we were "dipped" into the water. If you don't want to get wet you can tell the captain beforehand, however we highly suggest you take a refreshing dip into the ocean! On our way back our captain did a few high speed curves and we were all laughing and celebrating this fabulous experience! We did purchase the picture package and when we got home we checked the sd card they give you - All we can say is THANK YOU for this great experience and these pictures are hilarious and captured 100% of the fun we had!
It seems like there are unusual weather conditions everywhere, and it was cold even in May. It's usually much hotter.
So, when entering the sea, it was fine to just wear a swimsuit and then dry off and put on a cover-up when getting back on the boat.
I was grateful to have a warm drink after snorkeling; it was a nice way to relax.
どこでも異常気象のようで、5月でも、寒かったです。毎年はもっと暑い。と、おっしゃってました。
なので、海に入るときは水着だけで入り船に上がった時に体をふいて上着を羽織ると大丈夫でした。
シュノーケリングが終わってから温かい飲み物を頂きほっと出来てありがたかったです。
I experienced the 150 meters. As my turn got closer, my fear increased, but once I tried it, it was so much fun. The view overlooking Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head was amazing! I would love to challenge myself again if I get the chance.
150メートルを体験しました。
順番が近づくにつれ、恐怖感が増しましたが、いざ体験してみると、すごく楽しかったです。
ワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドを見下ろす景色は最高でした!
機会があればまたチャレンジしてみたいです。
It was my last day at Hawaii and it made a perfect finale for me.
Sand bar and ocean were beautiful, staffs were nice and kind, burger was delicious.
Don't miss it!
My husband and I had a great time snorkeling and saw lots of turtles up close. While sailing we even got to see dolphins playing around the boat. The staff was very professional, helpful and fun...highly recommend this activity!
This experience was one I have no regrets booking. The divers and guides were wonderful. You always felt safe and were never left alone because you have your own personal diver with you at all times. But you feel at peace and just immerse yourself with the wonders of life underwater. They provide you with all the equipment you need even snorkel gear for your free time! Would highly recommend this activity!
I had a vague image of it and didn't have high expectations, but experiencing it in reality was truly moving. Riding in a submarine was also a valuable experience, and above all, I was able to experience the clear blue seabed as if I were diving myself. I'm glad I participated. You can also see sea turtles!
何となくイメージも出来るし、そこまで期待していませんでしたが、
実際に体験すると感動モノでした。
潜水艦に乗る経験も価値あるものでしたし、何よりも青く澄んだ海底を
まるで自分が潜っているみたいに体験でき、参加してよかったです。
ウミガメも見れますよ!!
My first time in Haleiwa. I participated during the May holiday. The driver (who was Japanese) was very good.
It rained from the morning on the day of the trip. After we set off, the horseback riding was canceled. The driver informed us, "You can get a full refund for the cancellations." We were supposed to have three groups that day, but since the others canceled, it was just my family that set off. We only canceled the horseback riding and received a $100 refund per person.
We visited the murals in downtown Honolulu, a shop where we could sample coffee, and Dole Pineapple. After that, we entered Haleiwa while seeing the famous sign, and the driver kindly explained the shops from the car. Since it was still early for lunch, we went to a soap factory and then returned to Haleiwa for a garlic shrimp lunch at the recommended "CAMARON." The shrimp were already peeled, making them easy to eat. The driver was very kind, reserving seats for us and wiping off the benches from the rain. Even during our free time, I felt relaxed exploring since I had been informed about the famous spots from the car in advance. We also got to go to Matsumoto Shave Ice. On the way back, we were able to see three turtles up close on the beach.
In May, it can get quite chilly when it rains, so I think long sleeves are necessary. (We bought hoodies for the whole family at Dole.)
初めてのハレイワ。5月連休に参加。ドライバーさん(日本人)がとてもよかった。
当日は朝から雨。出発してから乗馬はキャンセルに。ドライバーさんから「キャンセルの方は全額返金できます」とのこと。当日3組で廻る予定でしたが、他の方はキャンセルされたので、うちの家族だけで出発しました。うちは乗馬だけキャンセルで一人100ドル返金してもらえました。
ホノルルのダウンタウンの壁画、コーヒーの試飲ができるショップ、ドールパイナップルへ。その後、有名な看板を見ながらハレイワに入り、車中からお店を丁寧に説明してもらいました。お昼にはまだ早い時間だったので、石けん工場へ行ってから、再度ハレイワに戻り、ガーリックシュリンプの昼食。お勧めの「CAMARON」へ。シュリンプの殻がむいてあるので食べやすいです。ドライバーさんが席を取ってくれたり、ベンチの雨を拭いてくれたりととても親切でした。自由行動でも、予め車中から名店を教えてもらっていたので、ゆっくり安心して散策できました。マツモトシェイブアイスにもゆけました。かえりには浜辺で3頭もカメを間近で見ることができました。
5月は雨が降るとかなり冷え込むので長袖が必要かと思います。(ドールで家族全員パーカーを買いました)。
Horseback riding is great for sun protection since you can wear a helmet over your hat.
You can easily mount the horse from a platform that looks like a podium, making it a breeze to get on. At first, it felt a bit scary due to the swaying, but I quickly got used to it and started enjoying the scenery. The horses are very well-trained and followed the horse in front of them perfectly.
We took individual photos of each family member at the beautiful seaside, so make sure to bring your camera!
In Haleiwa, they made a reservation for the garlic shrimp restaurant (Camaron) that I wanted to visit, allowing us to leisurely explore the town.
乗馬は、帽子の上からもヘルメットが被れるので日焼け対策バッチリです
朝礼台のような所から馬に乗れるので、乗る時も楽々でした
初めのうちは揺れて少し怖いのですが、すぐに慣れて景色を楽しめえるようになりました
馬がとてもよく訓練されているのでちゃんと前の馬のあとをついて歩いてくれました
綺麗な海辺で家族全員と、ひとりひとりの写真を撮ってくれたのでカメラ必携です
ハレイワでも行きたかったガーリックシュリンプのお店(キャマロン)を事前に予約してくれたのでゆっくり町を見て回れました
It was my first time parasailing, and I chose the highest option at 150 meters. It was very high, but seeing the vast scenery of Hawaii in a panoramic view became an unforgettable memory. However, I did get a bit seasick, so I recommend that anyone who is prone to motion sickness take proper precautions before going.
初パラセーリングでしたが一番高い150メートルを選択。とても高かったですが、ハワイの広大な景色をパノラマで見れたのは最高の思い出になりました。ただ船酔いをしてしまったので、少しでも酔いが気になる方はしっかりと対策をして行くことをオススメします。
It was my first time paragliding, and I participated with my family. I got a bit seasick on the boat, but when we ascended into the sky during paragliding, I was able to enjoy the breathtaking views!
初めてのパラセイリング、家族で参加しました。ボートで酔ってしまったのですが、パラセイリングで上空に登ったときは絶景を楽しめました!
We flew together as a family of three. The view of Waikiki Beach from the sky is amazing. Additionally, this time we were able to see whales spouting from above!
家族3人で一緒にフライトしました。空から見るワイキキビーチは眺望が最高です。さらに今回はクジラが潮を吹く様が上空から見れました!
I'm going to the sandbar for the first time!
A wide shallow area with a sparkling white coral carpet!
Imagining moments like that, we set sail!
At first, the weather seemed to be nice...
Before I knew it, the weather turned bad from the mountains.
In no time, the sky above the sandbar was covered with dark clouds,
and without any sunlight, we landed on the sandbar anyway!
The water is so cold~~><
It started to rain, and everyone around was hardly enjoying the sandbar,
just waiting inside the boat@@
I can't complain about the weather!
I accepted that we were just unlucky this time.
If there's a chance next time, I want to see a beautiful sandbar!
初めてサンドバーに行く!
広い浅瀬に、白く光るサンゴのじゅうたん!
そんな中で、ハイチーズ!
なんてことをイメージしながらいざ出港!
最初こそ、なんとか天気は良さそうだったのに・・・・
気づけば、あれよあれよと山の方から天気は崩れ。
あっという間に、サンドバー上空も真っ黒な雲に覆われて
日差しもないまま、とりあえずサンドバーに上陸!
水冷たい~~~~><
雨も降ってきたし、周りのみんなもサンドバーを楽しむどころか
船内でほぼ待機状態@@
天気に関しては誰にも文句は言えません!
今回は運が悪かったと、潔く諦めました。
次回チャンスがあれば、きれいなサンドバーを拝みたいです!
This was my second time on this tour. I participated on April 28, right in the middle of Golden Week. I was originally scheduled to join on the 27th, but there was some trouble with the ship that day, and it couldn’t depart, so I had to join the next day.
The last time I went, two years ago, I participated alone, but this time I was with someone else. During the previous trip, we found dolphins about 20 minutes after departure and spent a long time snorkeling with them and even got to see turtles up close. I was hoping for a similar experience this time!
Maybe the weather wasn’t great? This time, it took a while to find the dolphins, and we searched from the boat for about an hour before the dolphins finally noticed us and came into view! Just as we were all set to snorkel and swim with the dolphins, one of my companions got seasick and panicked a bit since it was their first time snorkeling.
They decided to give up after just 10 minutes in the water. They told me to go ahead and enjoy, but I couldn’t just leave them alone on the boat while I had fun! (As a guy, I felt I had to support the girl properly!)
I felt a bit regretful, but we were able to spot dolphins from the boat, and they even came quite close at one point. Just being able to see the dolphins made my companion happy.
Despite the ups and downs, we ended with some fun commemorative photos, and I realized how enjoyable it is to see dolphins! Even though we were at a distance, they were so cute! I’m already looking forward to planning to join again in two years!
今回で2度目のこのツアー。
ゴールデンウィークの真っ最中の4月28日に参加しました。
本当は27日の参加予定だったのですが、その日の船がトラブル?
で出港不能となり、翌日に改めての参加となったのですけどね。
前回は2年前に一人で参加したのですが、今回は二人での参加。
前回は出港後、20分ほど?でイルカが見つかり長い時間シュノーケルで
イルカを見たり、亀を間近で見れたりもしたのです。
今回もそうなると良いな!と、思いながらの参加です。
少し、天気も良くないってのもあったのかな?
今回はなかなかイルカが見つからず、船の上から探すこと
1時間ぐらい? ようやくイルカがこちらに気づいて?見つかってくれました!
さっそく、みんなでシュノーケル!でイルカと泳ぐぞ!!って時に・・・
一緒に行った人が、船酔いもしたのと初めてシュノーケルで少しパニくって
しまって><
海に入ってわずか10分で、断念。連れは私はいいから見てきて!って
言ってくれたのだけど、一人船の上に放置して自分だけ楽しむわけにも
行かないじゃないですか!
(一応、男子としては女子をしっかりとサポートせねば!w)
少し、心残りはありましたが、船の上から一緒にイルカを探しながら
遠めでもイルカは見れましたし、途中船のすぐ近くにも来てくれた。
そんなイルカを見ることができて、それだけでも連れは喜んでくれてました。
なんやかや、すったもんだありましたが、最後は楽しく記念撮影なんかもして
やはり、イルカを見ることって楽しいな!そして遠めだったけど、イルカは
可愛いな!って思いました。
2年後にもう一度、参加するつもりで今から楽しみに計画を練ってますw
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University! When going to meet wild dolphins in nature, we are indeed greatly influenced by the weather and natural conditions. However, we look forward to your next visit, and our staff will be waiting for you! We hope that the sea and sky will be in the best condition for your next participation! MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご参加いただきありがとうございました! 自然の中で野生のイルカに会いに行くため、やはり天候や自然のコンディションに大きく左右されてしまうことはございます。ですが、また次回もご参加いただけるようスタッフ一同お待ちしております!次回ご参加いただく際は海も空もベストコンディションでありますように! MAHALO!!
My daughter and I did the 2hr horse back ride with lunch and it was all excellent! It’s such a uniquely beautiful place that I rank it along with Machu Picchu and Monument Valley as my most incredible travel destinations. We highly recommend!
I can't say enough about this trip.
It was absolutely amazing, the crew went out of their way to make everyone happy. They even brought me a beer while I was standing on the sandbar, imagine that...
Take this trip, it is worth every dollar!!!
I rode on the 150m! I have a fear of heights, but I felt no fear at all, and the beautiful sea was breathtaking!! However, I only brought a small amount of money, thinking I might get wet, so I couldn't buy any photos (ToT) lol.
150mに乗りました!
高所恐怖症ですが、恐怖感は全く感じず、綺麗な海は感動しました!!
ただ、濡れてしまうのではと思い、チップ程度のお金しか持たずに行ってしまったので、写真が購入できずでした(ToT)笑
I had a great time watching dolphins and playing with a cheerful crew who spoke Japanese. The blue sea of Hawaii, the clear sky, and the wonderful smiles of the crew—please experience it at least once!
陽気な日本語の話せるクルーとわいわい楽しくイルカを見て楽しく遊べました☺ハワイの海青い空イルカの群れクルーの素敵な笑顔一度体験してしてみてください
My husband, son (25 years old), and I went for a 150M jump together. We all jumped at the same time. Just to be safe, I took some motion sickness medication, but it wasn't necessary. We were blessed with great weather and enjoyed the stunning views of Hawaii. I didn't change clothes and just laid a bath towel on the car seat to sit on (no one was wet above the waist). The guide for our transportation was cheerful from the start and kindly shared information about delicious restaurants and shopping. Since it ends in a short time, I think we can easily enjoy our plans afterward. It's also nice to head to the hotel pool or beach still in our swimsuits!
夫、息子(25才)と3人で150M。3人一緒に飛べました。念のため私は酔い止めの薬を飲みましたが、必要無かったです。天気にも恵まれ最高のハワイの景色を堪能出来ました。着替えはせず、車のシートにバスタオルを敷いて座ってOKでした。(腰上まで濡れてる人は居ませんでした)送迎のガイドさんは最初からずーっと陽気で、美味しいお店や買い物の情報など親切に教えてくれました。短時間で終わるので、その後のプランも余裕で楽しめると思います。水着を着たままホテルのプールやビーチに繰り出すのもいいですね!
I was a bit scared when I heard it was 150 meters, but it was fine. It felt good.
Seeing the coastline of Honolulu from the sea was refreshing.
150mと聞いて、少し怖いかもと思ってましたが、大丈夫でした。
気持ちよかったです。
ホノルルの海岸線を海側から見ると、新鮮でした。
I was able to see a group of dolphins swimming while sleeping in the ocean.
What was even better was getting to see a sea turtle up close.
海の中で寝ながら泳いでいるイルカの群れを見れました(^^)
それよりも海亀を間近で見れた事が良かったです。
At the dolphin school, Professor Sea Turtle also came to play, didn't he? Since he moves slowly, it must have been easy to observe him.
イルカの学校でウミガメ教授も遊びにきてくれたんですね
ゆっくり動くので観察もしやすかったのではないでしょうか。
My wife, who is not fond of heights, was gripping the belt tightly but still had quite a bit of fun.
When we got splashed with water, I dropped my shoes, so I recommend participating barefoot.
高いところが苦手な妻がベルトを強く握り締めながらも
結構楽しんでいました。
水ジャボンされた時に、シューズを落としたので
裸足で参加をお勧めします。
It was my first time parasailing! The weather was great, and the view was amazing! All the other participants were foreigners, and since I'm not good at English, I was really anxious at first. However, the staff and the other participants were very friendly, and I was able to communicate with them happily, which made me very satisfied! Also, we spotted a pod of dolphins from the sky, and when we landed, we were able to see the dolphins up close! According to the staff, it's rare to see dolphins. It became the best memory!
人生初のパラセーリングでした!天気も良く、眺めも最高でした!私たち以外の参加者は皆さん外国の方で、英語が苦手なので最初はとても不安でしたが、スタッフの方や他の参加者の方、皆さんとても気さくで、楽しくコミュニケーションを取ることができ、大満足です!!また、上空からイルカの群れを発見し、着地時にはすぐ近くでイルカを見ることができました!スタッフさん曰く、イルカが見れるのはレアとのこと。最高の思い出になりました!
The staff seemed unable to speak Japanese, but instructions were provided in Japanese, so there was no need to worry about the language barrier. The horses were well-trained and walked straight even for complete beginners. I chose this place because you can start riding from the age of eight. The staff kindly took family photos and individual pictures while we were riding, which made for a great keepsake.
スタッフは日本語が話せないようでしたが説明書などが日本語で用意されていて言葉の不安は不要でした。
馬は良く調教されていてまったくの初心者でも真っ直ぐに歩いてくれます。
8歳から乗馬できるのでここにしました。
スタッフも親切に乗馬をしている家族写真や単独写真を撮ってくれて、良い記念になりました。
I participated with mixed feelings about whether I would encounter dolphins or swim with them, but many dolphins appeared, and I was able to swim nearby. I was also glad to meet a sea turtle.
イルカと遭遇するか、一緒に泳げるか、半信半疑で参加しましたが、多くのイルカが現れ、近くを泳げました。またウミガメにも会えて良かったです。
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University this time. We are glad you were able to see the wild marine creatures! We sincerely look forward to your next participation. MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご参加いただきありがとうございました。 野生の海の生き物たちをご覧いただくことができ良かったです! またのご参加を心よりお待ちしております、MAHALO!!
The cruise was filled with a bright and fun atmosphere, typical of Hawaii, and as we progressed, we received explanations about filming locations from Jurassic Park. I was thrilled to see sea turtles multiple times.
I had never tried snorkeling before and was quite unsure, but I decided to give it a go. The staff kindly checked my gear and equipment, which allowed me to experience it without any anxiety. The underwater world was so enjoyable that I feel like I might become hooked on snorkeling.
It would have been difficult to get there on my own, so using the tour was definitely the right choice.
明るく楽しいガイドさんでハワイらしい雰囲気満点のクルーズ、途中ジュラシックパークの撮影場所の説明なども聞きながら進んでいくと、ウミガメもしっかり何度も現れてくれて感激しました。
シュノーケリングは全くの初めてでかなり自信がなかったのですが、思い切ってチャレンジ。親切に着用の状態や装備の点検をしてくれたので、不安なく体験することができました。水中の世界が楽し過ぎて、これからシュノーケリングにはまりそう。
自力で行くのは大変な場所なので、ツアー利用して正解でした。
I participated in this tour during my first visit to Hawaii. The water was incredibly clear and the emerald green sea was amazing. The guide was very friendly, and I had a great time. It had been over 10 years since I last swam in the ocean, so I was a bit anxious, but the detailed explanations in Japanese made me feel very reassured. There were also many small children participating. This was a tour that I would love to join again when I come back to Hawaii! (﹡´◡`﹡ )
初めてのハワイでこちらのツアーに参加しました。
透明度抜群でエメラルドグリーンの海は最高でした。ガイドさんもとても気さくな方で、楽しく過ごせました。海で泳ぐのは10年以上ぶりだったので、なにかと不安でしたが、日本語で丁寧に説明していただけるのでとても安心です。小さな子供もたくさん参加していました。
次回ハワイにきたときももういちど参加したいと思えるツアーでした(﹡´◡`﹡ )
The crew was very friendly and they provided all the instructions when we are on board. They provided snacks and water. For each scooter they had their own person to guide them. We had a very good time
There are no Japanese instructors, but everyone was kind and taught us patiently using gestures, so I wasn't worried. I read in reviews that the full zip has the same route, but aside from the last part where two people slide together, it was a different route, so I enjoyed it! Since you can't request transportation for the half zip, I recommend the full zip.
日本語のインストラクターはいませんが、みなさんジェスチャーで親切丁寧に教えてくださるので不安はありませんでした。
口コミでフルジップ6本は同じルートと書いてありましたが、最後の2人同時に滑るところ以外は違うルートだったので楽しめました!
ハーフだと送迎が頼めないので、フルジップがおすすめです。
