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 was able to see dolphins, but it was really exhausting... 一応イルカは見れたけどしんどすぎ...

Reviewed by: なーさん

Participation in mid-September.
We boarded a boat to search for dolphins, and when we found them, we dove into the sea.
Falling into the water, we swam tirelessly in the direction we were told.
Since we entered without any mental preparation, a few people panicked because they weren't used to it.
We saw a mother and baby dolphin swimming either deeper down or near the surface, but they weren't very close.
It felt like seeing dolphins underwater.
And it was cold. I was advised against renting a wetsuit because it can cause seasickness and costs $10, but I should have borrowed one.
I was shivering on the boat the whole time because it was too cold.
My husband seemed to feel nauseous as well, but when we moved to the snorkeling spot, he was told that it would be better to dive in, so he was made to jump in.
However, it was said that the sea was less rocky than on the boat, but it was still cold, which ultimately made him feel worse.
We could also see dolphins from the boat, so we still had quite a bit of fun.
We could take photos as well, but it was mostly the same person taking them. Everyone was getting pictures with bubble rings, but we didn’t have that.
The turkey wrap for lunch wasn’t tasty either...
If I go again, I think I’ll choose a different tour company that isn’t Dolphin University.

9月半ばの参加。
船に乗ってイルカを探して、見つかると海にダイブ。
海に落ちて、言われた方にひたすら泳ぎます。
心の準備もなく入るので慣れてないとパニックになる人が数人いました。
イルカは下の方または水面近くあたりを泳ぐ親子を見たりしましたが、さほど近くはないです。
海の中でイルカを見る感じ。
そして寒い。ウエットスーツは酔いやすいし10ドルかかるからと薦められませんでしたが、借りるべきでした。
寒すぎて船の上でずっと震えてました。
夫は酔いもあったようですが、シュノーケリングスポットに移動したとき、海に入ったほうがマシになると言われてダイブさせられてました。
しかし船の上より海のが揺れなくてまだマシだからとのことでしたが寒いので結局余計に体調不良に。
船からイルカを見ることもできたのでそれでも結構楽しめはしました。
あとは写真も撮ってもらえますが、同じ人ばかりでしたね。みんなバブルリングで撮ってもらってましたが私達は無かったです。
お昼のターキーラップも美味しくないし...
次また行くならイルカ大学ではないツアー会社にしようと思ってます。

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＞

A must-do when you come to Hawaii! ハワイにきたらやるべき！

Reviewed by: 常に金欠

I originally had a fear of heights, but I was able to enjoy this without much feeling of floating! If you're going to do it, I recommend the 150m option! The view is stunning! When coming down, they lower you slowly, but you do get dropped into the sea once, which is also quite fun. They do take photos, but it costs $40. Since that's expensive, we tried to take as many pictures ourselves as possible (though we couldn't capture the view from below). You will get wet, so it's best to wear clothes that can get wet (like a swimsuit). The boat sways quite a bit, so if you get motion sickness, definitely bring some motion sickness medication! (You can get water at the counter.)

元々高所恐怖症でしたが、こちらはあまり浮遊感なく楽しめました！
どうせやるなら１５０ｍをおすすめします！すごい景色の眺めがキレイです！
また降りるときはゆっくり下げてくれますが、一度海に落とされますｗそれもまた面白いです。
写真は撮ってくれますが40ドルでした。高いので私たちはできる限り自分たちで撮るようにしました。（下からの眺めは撮れませんが）
濡れるので濡れてもいい服（水着等）で行くのがおすすめです。
船はかなり揺れるので酔う方は酔い止め必須です！（お水はカウンターで貰えました）

クアロア・ランチ　映画のロケ地巡り、農作物を学ぶ農園ツアー、ジャングル探検ツアーが楽しめる1日満喫パッケージ　ビュッフェランチ付き！＜1日／送迎付きプランあり＞

The magnificent scenery is the best. 壮大な景色が最高

Reviewed by: にん

There were no other Japanese tourists on the bus for the tour. All the explanations were in English, so I couldn't understand the content, but I could somewhat feel the atmosphere. The jungle exploration had a nice opportunity for a bit of hiking, which was great. The tour around the farm turned out to be surprisingly the most interesting and enjoyable experience. It was amazing to see the magnificent scenery that can only be found here.

ツアー毎のバスには他に日本人観光客はいませんでした。説明は全て英語でしたので内容は分かりませんでしたが何となくの雰囲気で感じていました。ジャングル探険では少し登山する機会があった所が良かったです。農園を巡るツアーは意外と一番興味深く楽しく体験できました。ここでしか見られない壮大な景色を見られて最高でした。

BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

Incredible unique underwater adventure!

Reviewed by: Naomi G.

The scooters were everything we hoped they would be, we saw tons of fish and the support team was absolutely incredible in ensuring we had FUN. One of the guys found an octopus to bring over for photos and to interact with. We were in the 2nd scooter group, so I got to hop in for snorkeling both before and after my scooter ride. I saw a turtle while snorkeling and it was neat to watch some of the scooters cruising around. Highly recommend adding this experience to your must do list while on Oahu. You won't be disappointed.

クアロア・ランチ　乗馬体験(2時間)　映画ロケ地にもなった雄大な大自然を馬に乗って満喫！＜送迎付きプランあり＞

I enjoyed it for 2 hours. 2時間満喫しました

Reviewed by: mika

When I arrived at the meeting place, I could see the popularity of Kualoa with a large group tour. (It seems that participants in other adventures at Kualoa Ranch were also present, not just for horseback riding.)

Upon arrival, I was directed to the Japanese-speaking group, where explanations were provided in Japanese. When I went to the horseback riding area at the meeting time, I was in a group with five Americans and myself. I was guided to watch a Japanese explanation video, and then we set off on a two-hour tour with the other five.

The staff selected horses that seemed well-suited to each person's physique and age.

During the two-hour journey, they frequently asked if I was okay. Being Japanese, I answered "I'm fine," but the other Americans openly expressed their discomfort, mentioning knee and back pain. When I mentioned that my knee was slightly hurting, they adjusted the stirrup length for me. Once my foot position was lowered and my knee was slightly extended, it became quite comfortable. So, if you feel any discomfort while riding, I think it’s good to communicate that without hesitation.

They provided explanations of the scenery along the way, but since the six horses were walking somewhat apart, it was difficult for me to hear the staff's voice from the back of the group. With my English skills, it was hard to catch the faint English being spoken, so I focused on enjoying the magnificent scenery while horseback riding. Nevertheless, the staff (two staff members accompanied our group of six) checked in with questions like, "Is this your first time in Hawaii?" and "How's the horseback riding?" showing their care.

The two hours were quite ample, allowing me to fully enjoy Kualoa. The hamburger made with ranch beef and the sorbet frozen in coconut shells were delicious!

集合場所に行くと大人数のツアーで、クアロアの人気ぶりがうかがえました。（乗馬だけでなく、クアロア牧場で行う他のアドベンチャーの参加者も一緒のようです）

到着すると、日本人の方はこちらへ、と言われ、日本語で解説がありました。集合時間に乗馬の場所に行くと、5人の米国人と私1人が１つのグループ。私だけ日本語の解説動画を見るよう案内され、それから他の5人と一緒に2時間のツアーに出発。

スタッフがそれぞれの体格や年齢層に合わせて相性の良さそうな馬を選んで乗せてくれる感じでした。

2時間の行程の途中で、たびたび大丈夫？と聞いてくれるので、日本人的に「大丈夫」と答えていたのですが、他の米国人達は膝が痛いとか腰が痛いとか遠慮せずに色々言っているので、私も膝が少し痛む旨伝えたところ、あぶみの長さを調整してくれました。足の位置が下がって膝が少し伸びるとかなり快適になったので、乗馬中に身体の痛みなどが気になったら、遠慮せず伝えてみると良いと思います。

途中途中で風景の説明などをしてくれましたが、6名の馬がやや離れて歩いているので、一番後ろの私の位置では声が遠く、私の英語力ではかすかに聞こえる英語を聞き取るのは難しかったので、あまり気にせず雄大な風景にどっぷりつかって乗馬を楽しみました。それでもスタッフの方は（6人グループに2人のスタッフがついてくれます）ハワイは初めて？とか、乗馬は？とか色々声をかけて気遣ってくださいました。

2時間はかなりたっぷりな時間で思う存分クアロアを楽しめました。

The scenery was very beautiful, and I could feel the sea breeze, which made it a lot of fun. From below, it looked quite high and a bit scary at first, but it wasn't scary at all. There were several other participants as well, but while waiting, the boat swayed quite a bit, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication before the experience.

景色がとても綺麗で、海風も感じることが出来とてま楽しかったです。高さは下から見ると結構高くて怖そうだなと最初は思いましたが、全然怖くなかったです。他にも参加者が何組かいましたが、待っている間に結構船が揺れるので船酔いしやすいかたには酔い止めを体験前に服用されることをオススメします。

I participated with my brothers and their daughters, a total of five of us. We received a lecture on how to board and paddle, and together we cooperated to push the canoe into the sea and board it. We worked hard to paddle out to the open water, and when the crew confirmed good waves, we turned direction, increased our pace to ride the waves, and successfully caught some amazing waves. That feeling was the best!

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

MUST DO WATER ACTIVITY!!

Reviewed by: Hong

This was the most fun water activity my friends and I did. We did the 9AM excursion so the sun was not fully out and was kind of chilly out there. But you end up warming up in the water. The snorkeling was amazing this was the most fishes that we saw during our whole time in Hawai'i (we've done snorkeling about 3x this trip). We also did the Bumper tube ride. I would only recommend this if you want some adrenaline! Since we did the 9AM, they provided donuts and OJ. I would recommend that you bring your own lunch, snacks, and drinks. There is also a convenient store by the dock if you want to pick up food. If you're wondering, they DO have restrooms on the boat and a changing room as well. Bring a set of comfortable clothes to change into (: This is the 1 activity i would do again!

My cousin and I booked this snorkeling tour as it was her first time and she didn't feel comfortable being out in super deep in the water or in a very open area. The lagoon where this snorkel tour is hosted is great as it has rock barrier walls all around to protect it from large waves.

It is necessary to check the tide level. 潮位の確認が必要。

Reviewed by: りえ

The day we participated, the depth was just enough for adults to stand. Depending on the tide, it can be completely different from the photos, so it's better to check before signing up. It was also a windy day in late September, and the water temperature was low, so the kids got cold and quickly wanted to get out, which was unfortunate. (There were even babies who enjoyed it for over an hour.)

All the staff were very friendly, and it was reassuring that the Japanese-speaking staff provided thorough explanations. It was almost full, and there wasn't a place to sit, but they kindly asked us to move, which was a great help.

If you're going to snorkel, it seems better to have marine shoes. I bumped my foot against the coral reef (which you shouldn't touch) and got injured.

私たちが参加した日は、大人がやっと足がつく深さでした。潮位によっては、写真と全く異なるので、調べてから申し込んだ方が良いです。また9月下旬の風の強い日で、水温も低く子供達は寒がりすぐに出てしまい残念でした。（1時間以上楽しんでいた赤ちゃんもいました）

ノースショア・シャーク・アドベンチャー　迫力満点！至近距離で野生のサメを見学 ＜送迎可＞

This is my third time in Hawaii, and I would like to share the experience of a couple with zero English skills. I will write in detail. ハワイ３回目、英語力ゼロカップルの体験談。詳しく書かせて頂きます。

Reviewed by: しゅん

I participated in the tour that started at 9:30 AM. Since we were told to meet on-site and check in 30 minutes early, I left my hotel in Waikiki at 7 AM with plenty of time, heading towards Haleiwa. The drive from Waikiki to the freeway was a bit congested, but after that, it was smooth sailing. I arrived around 8 AM near the North Shore and stopped by the 7-Eleven in Haleiwa for breakfast. (They sell pasta, hand rolls, and sandwiches similar to those in Japan.) I reached the harbor parking lot by 8:30 AM. After parking in a spot of my choice, I checked in at a small hut marked 'North Shore Adventures.' When I provided my last name, I was informed in English that "there is no restroom on the boat, so please take care of that in the brown building over there," and "wait around the pink hut until it's time." By the way, this tour company owns four boats, which have Japanese names like 'Kaiou' and 'Abunai.' This time, we were on the boat called 'Kanpai,' and fortunately, the captain was a Japanese person from Kumamoto (I believe his name was Reese; I apologize if I'm mistaken), who communicated with us entirely in Japanese. Once everyone was gathered, we set sail even before the scheduled time. We took off our sandals, placed them in a black box, and boarded barefoot, choosing our seats. After that, the staff provided explanations in English, mainly about "rules on the boat," "shark information," and "group division." This time, everyone except us was foreign, and we were divided into two groups of six, totaling 12 people. It took about 15 minutes to reach the site, and we arrived in no time. As many have mentioned, it does sway quite a bit, so motion sickness medication is a must. (It's not too bad while moving, but after the engine stops, the cage is directly affected by the waves.) If you forget, there is a 24-hour drugstore (Longs Drugs) in Waikiki where you can find "motion sickness" medication. After putting on our snorkels, we descended into the cage using a ladder while holding a GoPro. There were quite a few sharks. They passed right in front of us one after another, so take your time to get into position before starting to film. They are a docile type of shark, so they won't attack. After enjoying it for about 20 minutes, we switched with the next group and waited on the boat. There are no changing rooms on the boat, so we headed back in our swimsuits. This time, we returned to port at 11:30 AM, making it a very compact activity of about two hours from departure to return. If you choose an early morning tour, you'll have the entire afternoon free for exploring Haleiwa Town, shopping, or driving along the coastline, making for a meaningful day. Overall, this became the best memory of my trip to Oahu. I highly recommend it. Thank you very much.

朝9時半スタートの回に参加しました。現地集合、30分前にチェックインとのことでしたので、時間に余裕を持ってワイキキのホテルを朝7時にレンタカーで出発、ハレイワへ向かいました。ワイキキからフリーウェイまでは多少混みますが後はスイスイ、８時過ぎにはノースショア辺りへ到着、ハレイワのセブンイレブンに寄り朝食をとりました。（日本のセブンに近いパスタや手巻き、サンドイッチが売られています。）8時半にはハーバーの駐車場へ到着。好きな駐車スペースへ停めた後『North Shore Adventures』と書かれた小さな小屋で受付です。ラストネーム（苗字）を伝えると英語で「船にはトイレが無いからあそこの茶色い建物で済ませておくこと」、「時間までピンクの小屋周辺で待機すること」など伝えられます。ちなみにこちらの催行会社では船を４隻所有しており、『海王』や『危ない』など日本語の名前が付いています。今回は『乾杯』という船でしたが、たまたま運よくキャプテンが熊本出身の日本語の方（おそらくReeseさん、違っていたらごめんなさい。）で終始日本語で対応して頂けました。全員揃い次第、時間前でも出航です。サンダルを脱いで黒い箱に入れ裸足で乗船、好きな席へ座ります。その後スタッフから英語で説明、主に「船でのルール」「サメの説明」「グループ分け」についてです。今回は私たち以外は全員外国の方で全部で12名、6名ずつの２グループに分けられました。出航から現場まで15分ほど、あっという間に到着します。皆さん書いている通りかなり揺れますので酔い止め必須です。（走行時はそうでも無いですがエンジン停止後と、ケージが海面のため波の影響をもろに受ける）。もし忘れた場合、ワイキキには24時間営業のドラッグストア（Longs Drugs）がありますのでそこで「motion sickness」で探せば見つかります。シュノーケル着用後、GoProを持ってケージの中へハシゴで降ります。サメはかなりの数います。次から次へと目の前を通り過ぎるので、焦らずしっかり体勢を整えてから動画撮影開始です。おとなしい種類のサメですのでもちろん襲ってきたりはしません。約20分ほど楽しんだ後次グループと交代、船へ上がって待機です。船には更衣室はありませんので、水着のまま帰路に付きます。今回は帰港時11:30、出航から帰港まで約２時間の大変コンパクトなアクティビティでした。午前早目の回を選べば午後はまるまる空きますのでハレイワタウン散策やお買い物、海岸線をドライブなど有意義な１日を過ごせると思います。総合的に今回のオアフ島旅行で一番の思い出になりました。かなりお勧めだと思います。ありがとうございました。

I was satisfied with the tour content, but the transportation requires attention. ツアー内容には満足、送迎は注意が必要

It is true that you can race through the great outdoors and enjoy the magnificent scenery. I believe you can find satisfaction in the content through other media as well, so here are a few points to note:

- Basically, you will get dirty all over. Helmets and goggles are provided, but since they are not cleaned, just putting them on will make your head and face dirty. The vehicle is also dirty, so as soon as you sit down, your pants will get dirty. Additionally, dust from the vehicles in front will fall all over your body. By the way, in addition to the helmet and goggles, a dust mask labeled "Kualoa" is provided, but that is given as a souvenir after the tour.
- Even with goggles on, dust got into my family's eyes, so they used sunglasses or glasses as substitutes.
- Due to unforeseen circumstances, there may be times when you are left behind by the bus. The original plan was for the bus to depart 15 minutes after the 2-hour tour ended, but in reality, the tour extended to about 2 hours and 15 minutes, and when I went to the restroom afterward, I was left behind by the return bus. When I later asked the ticket booth staff, they said the bus only waited for 5 minutes after the scheduled departure time. This means I only had 5 minutes to wash my hands and face and walk from the tour location to the bus, including restroom time.

大自然の中を駆け抜けるというのは本当で、壮大な景色を楽しむことができた。内容に満足できることは他の媒体でもわかると思うので、注意点をいくつか。

・基本的に体中汚れる。ヘルメットとゴーグルが渡されるが、洗われていないため装着しただけで頭と顔が汚れる。車内も汚いので座ったらすぐにズボンが汚れる。また、前を走る車による砂埃が体中に降りかかる。ちなみにヘルメットとゴーグルの他にクアロアと書いてある防塵用のマスクが渡されるが、それはツアー終了後にお土産として渡された。
・ゴーグルをつけていても砂埃が目に入ったので家族は自分なりにサングラスやメガネで代用していた
・不可抗力によりバスにおいていかれることがある。2時間のツアーが終了して15分後にバスが出発するというのが元々の予定だったが、実際にはツアーが2時間15分くらいまで延びて、その後トイレに行っていたら帰りのバスにおいていかれた。後でチケット売り場の人に質問したら、バスは出発予定時刻の5分後までしか待っていなかったとのこと。手や顔を洗ってツアーの場所からバスまで歩く時間とトイレに行く時間を合わせて5分しかもらえなかったということになる。

Even a paper driver could enjoy it! ペーパードライバーでも楽しめた！

I haven't driven in nearly five years, but I was relieved to manage the two-hour drive on this tour without any issues! It was certainly not monotonous; it was an exhilarating experience as we splashed through the jungle and zipped right past cows.

かれこれ５年近く運転してないペーパーだが、このツアーでの２時間のドライブは難なくこなすことができて、安心しました！　ただ、もちろん単調すぎることもなく、ジャングルを水しぶきを上げながら駆け抜けたり、牛の真横をすり抜けたりとスリルあるアトラクションでした。
