The guides were hilarious and very inviting! We saw a ton of turtles and even a shark while snorkeling! After getting back on the boat we cruised down Waikiki and saw a baby whale breaching and playing in the water. Such a fun morning! Best experience here on Honolulu!

It was 150 meters high, but I didn't feel as much fear as I expected. The fun staff provided great guidance, and it was a wonderful experience! You definitely have to do this when you go to Hawaii!

150メートルだったけど、思ったより高さに対する恐怖もなく、楽しいお兄さん達が指導してくれてとてもいい体験が出来ました！
ハワイに行ったら絶対やるべきー

Initially, I thought about taking the bus, but I didn't know how to ride it or the schedule, so I consulted with HIS. They told me it would take a long time and that I wouldn't know how to transfer, which would make it difficult to reach my destination. I even considered canceling. In the end, I decided to take a taxi (which was expensive).

There were seven elderly ladies, all beginners, and at first, they were a bit scared to get on, but they gradually got used to it. The woman who accompanied us was very cheerful, which made it enjoyable and the experience was fantastic (I'm glad we did it).

As they got more comfortable, everyone expressed a desire to go horseback riding and try galloping. While Kualoa is famous, this place felt more local, and Japanese wasn't spoken, but we managed to communicate somehow. There were also small children with us, and they had a great time as well.

最初バスで行こうと思いましたが乗り方、時間がわからずＨＩＳで相談しました。そうしたら時間もかかるし、乗換もわからないと着くまでに大変ですよと言われ、キャンセルも視野に入れましたが。急きょタクシー（値段が高い）に
しました。おばあちゃん７名ですが全員初心者、最初は恐る恐る乗っていましたが次第に慣れ、ついていただいた女性の方がとても明るい方なので楽しくなり最高でした。（やって良かったです）
慣れたのか、みなさん乗馬に行って走らせてみたいと言う意見もありました。
クアロアは有名ですが、ここはローカルなようで日本語は通じないですがなんとかコミニュケーションができます。また小さい子供さんもいましたがとても楽しんでいました。

It was amazing. I saw a lot of sea turtles. It was a bit cold, but the weather was nice, and I was able to go snorkeling. My daughter was very happy. It's definitely worth experiencing at least once.

最高でした。ウミガメたくさん見れました。少し寒かったですが、天気も良く、シュノーケリングもでき、娘も大喜び。一度は体験してみる価値あり。

I was a bit worried until I got on the boat, but once I was on, I thought, "Whatever happens, happens!" and decided to enjoy myself. I had a great time with the vast ocean of Hawaii, the sea breeze, and the crew's jokes and playful antics.

The boat swayed quite a bit, and some passengers got a little seasick. I think it's better to take motion sickness medication; I took some beforehand. As for tips, in our case, we handed them out casually on the way back after everyone had finished flying (I think it was $10?).

Just before taking off, they asked if we wanted to take photos, and when I said yes, they started taking pictures right after we jumped. After we got off the boat, the staff reminded us about the photos. It was $30 for cash and $35 for card payment, so I paid $30 in cash and received the SD card on the spot. They took about 70 pictures.

It was 120 meters high, but the view was amazing! If you're in Hawaii, shopping is nice, but you should definitely go flying! The bus driver for the hotel transfer also chatted with me in broken Japanese, which was fun!

船に乗るまではちょっと心配でしたが、船に乗ったらもうどうにでもなれ！という感じで、楽しむことにして、
ハワイの大海原と、潮風と、クルーさんの冗談や可愛いちょっかいを
大いに楽しみました♪
船はかなり揺れます。同乗者にも少々酔ってしまった方がおりました。
酔い止めは飲んだほうがよいと思います。私は飲んでおきました。
チップは、私達の場合は、全員が飛び終わり戻る船の中でなんとなく手渡しました。（＄10だったかな？）
写真のデータは、いざ飛び上がる直前に、写真撮るか？と聞かれ、お願いしますと頼むと、飛び上がったあとすぐに撮り始まってくれました。船を降りてから、係の人が写真頼みましたよね、と声をかけてくれて、
現金だと＄30、カードだと＄35なので、現金で＄30支払い、SDカードをその場で受け取れます。約70枚撮ってくれました。
１２０ｍでしたが、眺めは最高ーー！ハワイに来たなら、お買い物もいいけど、飛んどいたほうがいいです(´∀｀)ﾉ
ホテルまでの送迎バスの運転手さんも、片言の日本語で楽しくお話ししてくださいました♪

We participated in the all-you-can-eat appetizer buffet on the 3rd floor, which included free drinks. It was relatively quiet, and the waiter took our drink orders. I chose champagne, and it was a rosé champagne. It was delicious. Beer, wine, and champagne were free, while other items were available for an additional charge.

The food included several types such as yakitori, meatballs, sausages, and edamame. The most eye-catching item was a pineapple decorated with skewers of various fruits, which was impressive and delicious.

Of course, the view was also wonderful, and watching the sunset was very moving. Around sunset, people from other floors gathered on the 3rd floor, making it lively. Since it was a Friday night, we were able to enjoy the fireworks from a prime spot, which doubled our enjoyment.

私達は3Fのアペタイザー食べ放題（フリードリンク付き参加でした。比較的空いていて、ウエイターがドリンクの注文を聞いてくれ、私はシャンパンにしたら、ロゼのシャンパンでした。美味しかった。ビール、ワイン、シャンパンは無料で、他の物は別料金でした。
お料理は、焼き鳥、肉団子、ソーセージ、枝豆など数種類ありました。一番目を引いたのは、パイナップルに数種類の果物の串刺しが飾らせていたのが、印象的でしかも美味しかったです。
勿論景色も素晴らしく、日の入りのタイミングを見守るのはとても感激しました。日の入りのタイミングの頃には、他の階の方が3Fに集まり、賑やかになりました。金曜の夜でしたので、花火も特等席で鑑賞でき、2倍楽しみました。

The whole day was great - sandbar, turtles, snorkeling and lunch. And of course, the staff! Will highly recommend this trip to anyone going to Oahu. Thanks!

We chose to experience horseback riding by the seaside. We received a thorough lecture on how to ride and use the reins, and then we walked along the beach in a line. There were about three instructors with us, so we were able to enjoy it without any particular worries. (Some horses even started eating grass along the way, which was amusing!) Riding while being blown by the sea breeze of the North Shore was quite a pleasant experience.

私たちは海辺での乗馬体験を選択しました。
馬の乗り方、手綱の使い方を一通りレクチャーしてもらい、皆で一列になって海辺を歩きました。インストラクターの方が3人くらい付いていたので、特に不安なく楽しむことができました。(馬によっては途中、草を食べ始めちゃう子とかもいました笑)
ノースショアの海風に吹かれながらの乗馬はなかなか気持ちのいいものでした。

I boldly signed up for the 150m experience. We went straight up into the sky, and it felt quite high, but it was refreshing. My family of three was able to fly together, creating wonderful memories. I took motion sickness medication, but my son felt a bit seasick. However, by the time we finished and were heading back, it seemed like he completely forgot about the seasickness because we were able to see two whales. It was a very lucky experience!

思い切って150ｍで申し込みました。すーと上空に上がって行き、かなり高く感じましたが爽快でした。家族３人で飛ぶことができ、いい思い出になりました。酔い止めを飲んで乗りましたが息子は少し船酔いをしていました。しかし、全員が終わって帰るときに２頭のクジラを見ることができ、船酔いも完全に忘れていたようです。とてもラッキーな体験をしました！

We went on this tour in the morning, and it was definitely one of the best experiences I’ve ever had!!

This tour was a wonderful experience during my trip to Hawaii. Our guide, who was born in Akita, skillfully shared stories while driving (fluent in both Japanese and English) and provided us with rich knowledge about plants and Hawaiian history during the hike. We were fortunate to have such a great guide. Additionally, the driver played the ukulele and kept the participants engaged while also guiding foreign guests. Next time, I definitely want to join the Dolphin and You tour.

　今回のハワイ旅行の中では、非常にいい時間を過ごせたツアーでした。
秋田生まれのガイドさんが車中から巧みな話術を繰り広げ（日本語・英語ペラペラ）ハイキング中も植物やハワイの歴史など豊富な知識を伝えてくださり、ガイドさんに恵まれたツアーでした。また、運転手さんもウクレレを弾き、参加者を飽きさせない工夫をしながら外国人の対応のガイドをしておられました。次は、是非、ドルフィンアンドユーのツアーに参加したいです。

The fish were very beautiful to see, and I highly recommend it. The time was a bit short, but it was still a fulfilling experience. If there are days when only the morning is available, I recommend it.

非常に魚もキレイに見れてオススメです。
時間はちょっと短かかったですが、それでも充実した時間になりました。午前中だけ空いている、という日があればオススメです

My child is a fan of the Jurassic series, so I thought it would be a service for them, but in the end, I enjoyed it the most! ^_^

I had a great time on the jungle tour, farm tour, and movie tour.

Even if you're not good at English, there are many people who speak Japanese in the park, so I don't think it will be a problem.

The explanations were in Japanese when I participated. ^_^ I definitely want to join again next year in Hawaii, and next time I want to try riding in a jeep or an ATV!

子供がジェラシック シリーズのファンなので私としては子供へのサービスだと思い申し込みましたが結果、自分が一番楽しんでました^_^

ジャングル、ファームツアー、ムービーツアーどれも楽しませていただきました。

英語が苦手な方でも日本語話される方がパーク内に沢山いらっしゃるので問題ないと思います。

説明も自分が参加した時は日本語の説明でした^_^
来年のハワイも是非参加して次回はジープにのるかバギーに挑戦したいです！

this show was amazing. very friendly and welcoming. the food was excellent! we loved everything about it especially the fire dance. we highly recommended it. if we come back we will definitely do it again.

At first, I had a bit of trouble finding the check-in location, but I figured it out quickly, and everything else went smoothly. Although it was all in English, the American crew was very accommodating, and I had a pleasant and enjoyable experience.

はじめはチェックイン場所がわからずちょっと探しましたがすぐわかり、あとは何もかもスムーズでした。英語だけでしたがアメリ人のクルーの対応もよく気持ちよく楽しめました。

The horseback riding experience itself was very satisfying as we walked along the coast with beautiful scenery. However, I couldn't fully understand some of the driver's explanations, so it would have been better if they had provided a bit more detailed information.

体験した乗馬自体は、海沿いを歩くため景色がよく、大満足でした。ただ、ドライバーの方の説明が一部よく理解できなかったため、もう少し丁寧に説明を頂けるとよかったです。

I was torn between the 1-hour course and the 2-hour course, but since I wasn't very interested in the other activities, I chose the 2-hour course, and it was a great decision. There were only two groups of four people in the 2-hour course, so I received thorough support. Additionally, since it was a 2-hour course, I was also taken to the Movie Site, which was a lot of fun. As for clothing, it's better to wear shoes instead of sandals and long pants instead of shorts. It's wise to dress in a way that anticipates being splashed with dung or urine.

2時間コースか1時間コースか迷ったが、他のアクティビティにはあまり興味がなかったので、2時間コースを選択したら、アタリでしたー。2時間のコースはパッケージプランの人があまりいないのか2組4名しかいないのでじっくりサポートしてもらえた他、2時間のコースだとMovie Siteにも案内してもらえたので十分楽しめました。あと服装ですが、サンダルでなくて靴、短パンでなくて長ズボンの方がいいですね。フンやオシッコをかけられることも想定した服装がいいでしょう。

The staff were kind, and I was able to experience everything with peace of mind. I was able to see the dolphins up close, and I am very satisfied. I'm glad I participated.

優しいスタッフの方と、安心して体験できました。いるかもすごく近くで見れてとても、満足しています。参加して良かったです。

I was unsure about the height, but I participated at 120m. The moment I felt myself float, I was above the deep blue sea! I was moved by the pleasant breeze and the view I had never seen before!

高さ迷いましたが、120mで参加しました。
ふわっと浮いたと思った瞬間に、真っ青な海の上にいました！気持ちの良い風と初めての景色に感動しました！

I purchased four tickets intending to participate twice with my son and wife, but we were forced into a single ride with three family members. When I requested a refund for one ticket at the end, they refused, claiming it was longer and more expensive instead. However, in reality, it lasted only about four or five minutes and didn't even reach 150 meters in height. I later found that a third of the $30 photo service shots were failures. The staff was friendly, but overall... it was disappointing.

息子と妻、息子と自分のペア2回で参加するつもりで４人分のチケットを購入したのにも関わらず勝手に家族3人同乗の1回にさせられました。解散の際に1人分のチケット代の返金を求めたらその代わりにもっと高くもっと長くやったからと拒否。。しかし実際には４，５分位で高さもぜんぜん150メートルに届かず。30ドルの写真サービスも後で確認したら三分の一が失敗ショット。。。スタッフの態度は親切だったが、全般的に・・・残念でした。。

There were no staff members who could speak Japanese, so after the zip line activity, I thought it was lunchtime since there were no other participants, but there was no explanation about where to eat, which felt a bit unkind! I think it would have been better if they had a Japanese-speaking staff member or provided a schedule at the beginning. The driver who picked us up drove recklessly, using sudden brakes and sharp turns, which was scary. The return trip was fine, though.

日本語を話せるスタッフがいない為、ジップラインが終わった後、他の参加者がいなくなったのでランチタイムだろうと思ったがどこで食べるのかの説明もなく少し不親切❗️
スケジュールがわかっていたら対応出来たと思うので日本語が話せるスタッフを置くか、スケジュール表を作成して最初に渡しておいた方が親切かなぁと思います。
お迎えに来た運転手は運転が雑で急ブレーキや急ハンドルで怖かった。帰りは大丈夫でした

It was really awesome experience due to the friendliness of the crew and the weather we had that day was just perfect. The burger that we were given for lunch was perhaps the best burger I've had on the sea. Definitely better than my expectations.

I participated with my fifth-grade niece. At first, she was scared, but after trying it once, she said it was fun! (The first ride was a gentle line, but from the second ride on, it was a decent height and length.) We took a big jeep to the location of the lines after the first ride, so there was no turning back! It’s guaranteed to be exhilarating! Although Japanese is not understood, I was able to enjoy it even though I can't speak English ^_^

小学5年生の姪っ子と参加しました。
姪っ子は、最初は怖がっていたのですが1回すると、楽しい！と。(1回目は緩やかなラインだった為、2回目からは、そこそこの高さ、長さのラインに。)
2回目以降のライン場所まで大きなジープで行くので、後戻りもできません！
スカッと！する事間違いなし！
日本語は通じませんが、英語が話せない私でも楽しめました^_^

You will board the submarine after about a 15-minute boat ride. Then, you will spend quite a long time moving around the seabed in the submarine. It can make you feel seasick. Many people experienced motion sickness. I recommend that those who are prone to seasickness take some medication before going. However, I was happy to see a sea turtle. The crew members were all very kind.

15分ぐらい船に乗ってサブマリンに乗り込みます。それから結構長い時間サブマリンで海底を動き回ります。酔います。結構な人が船酔いしてました。酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んで行かれることをオススメします。でも、ウミガメに会えたのは嬉しかったです。船員の方々は皆さん優しかったです、

Concerns for Japanese people:
- Not being able to communicate in Japanese
- Not knowing when to give tips

Is that about it?
It's like a well-trained horse just following the guide. There will probably be various explanations from the guide along the way, but since I can't understand English, there won't be any.
I think it would be good to sell tours that include tips for Japanese customers.

日本人に心配だと思う所
○日本語が通じない
○チップの渡すタイミングがわからない

これぐらいですかね？
よく調教された馬で、ガイドさんの後をついていくだけ
途中、色々とガイド説明があるんだろうけど、英語理解できないので無し
日本人向けにチップ込みツアーの販売が良いと思う

Since I participated during the New Year period, it felt different from the usual place. I enjoyed the sunset and the evening atmosphere at that time. I chose a great seat, right in the center at the very front, and it was moving to see the hula dance up close.

The food was served buffet style. There was a wide variety, including salads, meats, rice, noodles, and desserts. I could order up to three drinks with a ticket, so I ordered Mai Tai and beer.

There were many types of hula dances, and I was able to see about ten different groups perform. The beautiful movements of the hula were very captivating, and the powerful dances by the men using fire sticks were impressive as well.

年末年始に参加したのでいつもの場所とは違ったようですが、
時間帯的に夕焼けの日の落ちる感じと夜の雰囲気を楽しめて良かったです。
良い席にしたのでど真ん中の一番前の席で間近でフラダンスが観れて感動しました。

ごはんはビュッフェスタイルです。
サラダやお肉、ごはんや麺類、デザートまで種類は豊富でした。
飲み物は3つまで頼めるチケットだったのでマイタイやビールなどを注文。

フラダンスの種類？も豊富で全部で10組くらいのフラダンスを見ることができました。フラダンスの美しい動きはとても魅力的でしたし、男性が火の棒を使って力強いダンスをするのも迫力があって良かったです。

There were two instructors, and they seemed to have a bad relationship. One casually rode the waves during the lesson, while the other spoke poorly of the other, creating an awkward atmosphere. Additionally, when I purchased the photos, I was surprised to find that they included pictures of everyone. There was a significant imbalance in the number of photos for each person, which was disappointing. Personally, I felt that my own photos were far fewer than I had expected, and I regretted buying them.

インストラクターが2人いて、仲が悪そうだった。
1人はレッスンの間に気ままに波に乗ったり、もう1人は相手を悪く言ったりしていて気まずかった。
また、写真を購入したら全員分の写真が入っており、驚いた。
1人1人の写真の数の偏りも激しく、残念だった。
個人的には自分の写真が期待よりはるかに写真が少なく、買わなければよかったと思った。

We dive to about 120 feet deep, but even in shallower areas, you can see many small fish and sea turtles. We also go right next to a sunken ship. Interestingly, the wing section of the YS-11 has become a home for fish.

水深120ftぐらいまで潜りますが、浅い場所でも小魚や海亀を多数見ることができます。沈没船の真横にも行きます。興味深いのはYS-11の主翼部分が魚の家になっていることです。

The leader spoke English, so I couldn't understand the guide very well. The scenery itself was amazing.

I made a reservation for 15:30, and the meeting time was at 11:00. I thought I would have a lot of free time, but when I checked in, I was guided to a horseback riding session starting at 12:00.

I'm glad I was able to do it early, but it was a bit of a mystery why the horseback riding was scheduled for 15:30. My father had to cancel the two-hour horseback riding due to a foot injury, but on the day of, there were openings, and we were able to take a bus with a Japanese-speaking guide.

リーダーは英語なので、ガイドがよくわかりません。
景色自体は最高です。

15:30に予約して、集合時間は11時でした。
暇をもて余すんだろうなと思って受付したら、12時からの乗馬に案内されました。

はやくにできてよかったですが、なぜ15:30の乗馬案内になっているか、ちょっと謎でした。父親は足を痛めたので2時間の乗馬をキャンセルしたのですが、当日、空きがあり、日本語ガイド付きのバスに乗れました。

My husband wasn't feeling up to swimming in the ocean, but once we reached the sandbar, we played beach volleyball and got caught up in snorkeling, losing track of time and having a great time. As it was my husband's first time snorkeling, he was amazed by the beautiful coral reefs and the schools of fish, repeatedly exclaiming, "This is great! It's beautiful!" Since there were staff who spoke Japanese, we felt no anxiety, and as the boat was primarily for Japanese tourists, we made friends with the people sitting next to us. Under the blue sea and sky of Hawaii, we spent time with the bright and kind staff, learned about the Hawaiian spirit of cherishing nature, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you very much.

夫は海で泳ごうという気持ちになれなかったのですが、サンドバーについたら、ビーチバレーをしたり、シュノーケリングに夢中になったり、時間を忘れて楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。シュノーケリングが初めての夫は、きれいなサンゴ礁や群がる魚達の様子に感動して「よかった～！きれいだ～！」の連発でした。日本語のできるスタッフでしたから不安もなく、さらに日本人観光客用の船でしたからほとんど日本人で隣の席の方たちとも仲良くなりました。ハワイの青い海と青空の下で、明るく優しいスタッフと一緒に過ごして、自然を大切にするハワイスピリットを学び、満喫しました。ありがとうございました。
