We participated as a family of six. Both of my son's couples were very happy, and the weather was nice, so we had a wonderful time.

家族６人で参加しました。息子夫婦（２組）もとても喜んでくれて
天気も良かったの大変いい時間を過ごしました。

We participated for the first time as a family of three generations: parents, a couple, and children. Although we had reserved Golden Circle seats, it seems we were shown to regular seats. When it was time to eat, we were kept waiting, which made us anxious, so we asked, and it turned out we were not in the Golden Circle seats (the ray was cast over everyone).

In a hurry, we were finally guided to the actual Golden Circle seats, but the buffet had a long line. In the end, we ended up getting our food last, which was very disappointing. It seemed that we were supposed to receive select drink tickets at the beginning, but we were not given those tickets, so our drink orders were also delayed.

I had high hopes for this commemorative trip with my parents, but our enjoyment was halved. The show itself was entirely in English, but we were able to enjoy the atmosphere.

両親、夫婦、子供３世代で初めて参加しました。ゴールデンサークルを予約していたものの、案内されたのは普通の席だったようです。
食事を取る時に、待たされての案内だったので、不安になって聞いてみると、ゴールデンサークルの席ではないとの事。（レイは全員にかけられました。）
慌てて本来のゴールデンサークル席に案内されたものの、ビュッフェは長蛇の列。結局最後の方に食事を取るような形で大変残念でした。
セレクトドリンクのチケットも最初にもらえるようでしたが、そのチケットも渡されていなかったので、ドリンクオーダーも遅くなりました。
両親を連れての記念旅行だったので期待していましたが、楽しみは半減しまた。ショー自体は全て英語でしたが、雰囲気は楽しめました。

This was a last minute thing that we decided to do - and we're sure glad that we did.
Was a great night with good food and good entertainment to follow. Rose was our server and what a fantastic job she did, she had a number of tables to look after (as servers do over there) yet she gave intimate tables of two just as much as large group tables.
Overall a well run experience from pickup to drop off couldn't fault it at all

This was an enjoyable trip just off the Waikiki coast, snorkeling was fruitful with my three teenage children as we saw many sea turtles and fish, while my wife enjoyed staying on the boat taking pictures of us in the water and of the surrounding views. Then we took a fun sail ride that gives you a great view of the Waikiki skyline and a full view of Diamond Head. The crew was great and were determined to ensure we had a great time. They were successful!

First, we boarded a boat from the dock near Hilton Hawaiian Village and headed offshore, where the views from the boat were excellent. There was a shop on board, so we didn't get bored. At the offshore point, we could see a submarine surfacing. The weather was calm on the day of our participation, and the view from inside the submarine was great. Thanks to our guide, who was fluent in Japanese, we had a wonderful time. While it might not be enough for those who are serious about scuba diving, I think it's a tour that can be enjoyed by everyone else.

まずはヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ近くの乗船場から船に乗り沖合へ行きますが、この船からの眺めが非常に良いです。船内にはショップがあり退屈しません。沖合のポイントでは潜水艦の浮上を見ることができます。参加当日は天気も穏やかで潜水艦内からの眺めも良く、また日本語が流暢なガイドさんのおかげで楽しく過ごせました。本格的にスキューバダイビングをする人には物足りないかもしれませんが、そうでなければ十分楽しめるツアーだと思います。

Entertainment was great. There was always something going on if you don't be careful you will miss the sunrise. I was beautiful.

We participated in the tour on June 24 with five people. Although the pickup was early in the morning, the staff's fun talks and the detailed explanations of the tour were appreciated. Once on the boat, the captain and the friendly crew naturally brought smiles to our faces. We swam with dolphins at the two locations they guided us to, and both times we encountered dolphins, which was an emotional and thrilling moment. We also saw sea turtles several times at the surface. This was my first dolphin tour, but thanks to the enjoyable guidance from the staff, as well as the boat burgers and hula dancing, we had a wonderful time. If I come to Hawaii again, I will definitely join this tour without hesitation. Thank you to everyone at Dolphin & You.

6月24日のツアーに5人で参加しました。朝早いピックアップでしたが、スタッフ皆さんの楽しいトークやツアーの説明には丁寧さも感じました。船に乗船してからもキャプテンをはじめ楽しくて親切なスタッフクルーに笑顔が自然に出ておりました。イルカは二回ほど案内して頂いた場所で泳ぎましたが、二回ともイルカに出逢え感動と感激の瞬間を味合うことが出来ました。海亀も海面上で何回も出逢えました。今回は初めてのイルカツアーでしたが、スタッフ皆さんの楽しい引率や船上バーガー・フラダンスなど、楽しい時間を過ごさせて頂来ました。またハワイに来たら迷わすツアーに参加させて頂きます。ドルフィン&ユーの皆様有難うございました。

I participated after reading the reviews! The same Japanese staff guided us from the bus to the snorkeling, which made me feel at ease! They were also knowledgeable about dolphins and took us to a spot where we could see a lot of them, so I was able to swim with the dolphins perfectly!

クチコミを見て、参加しました！バスのガイドから、シュノーケルのガイドまで同じ日本人スタッフの方がやってくださり、安心しました！また、イルカに詳しく、大量に見れるポイントで潜らせてくれたのでバッチリイルカと泳ぐことが出来ました！

Communication in Japanese was somewhat possible, and the shuttle service was without issues. There were only three groups during our time, so we finished smoothly with almost no waiting time! However, I wish the flying time had been a bit longer... (^_^;) Still, we enjoyed it thoroughly!

日本語も多少は通じて送迎も問題なし、私たちの時は3組だったのですが待ち時間もほとんどなくスムーズに終わりました！
ただ、もう少し飛ぶ時間が長かったら良かったかな…と(^_^;)
それでも十分に楽しめました！

My daughters and I had a great time The tour bus picked us up on time . The tour guide /driver provided us a lot of information and history about the island, restaurants and all important sites we drive by . He was was funny too . He answered every ones questions.He allowed us enough time for breaks and photos. We had an amazing time at the Waterfall, my youngest had a foot surgery last year and she can’t walk too fast , we where having a great time swimming in the waterfall pool that we lost track of time . We had 15 minutes to make back to the bus , knowing my youngest can’t walk too fast or run my oldest said “ I’ll have him wait mom “ and took off running ( she runs track and cross country) . We had to be back by 12pm , we ( my youngest and I) made by 12:05 , My oldest daughter was happy the driver waited for us , we all were :). Then we drove to the snorkeling site , the tide was low and it was too rocky, I have never snorkel and I’m not a great swimmer, so we walked up to do some shopping and had a fresh coconut. We made our last stop at Haleiwa, the driver recommended some restaurants . The girls and I had a wonderful time , we ate and did some shopping. He was on time to pick us up . On the way back to the hotel we were tired and feel asleep. Overall we had a great time, we visited a few places and I didn’t have to drive through all that traffic I feel bad I forgot the drivers name , He was knowledgeable and I felt safe with him behind the wheel while the girls and I enjoy the activities and sites . The only reason I didn’t rate outstanding is because the snorkeling was not fun , the waves were too strong and the tide was too low , too rocky, but no one can really control that :)

Amazing time!!!! Amazing crew!!! Will definitely do again!!!

The driver who picked us up spoke in English, but occasionally threw in jokes like a Japanese comedian, which made me happy as it showed he wanted to entertain us! When we arrived at the port and got out of the car, he said, "I'll help the girls!" and escorted us. He didn't do the same for the young boy who got out after us (laughs).

As the driver mentioned, "Today, it's Captain ◯◯'s boat, you guys are lucky!" the captain turned out to be incredibly reliable. The assistant was also fun and entertaining.

On the boat, club music was playing, creating a vibe that forced us to get hyped up. The waves were high, and it was really bumpy. We were instructed in English to "Take off your shoes! Also take off your jackets!" and we were fitted with parasailing gear one by one.

The order of who would fly was completely up to the assistant. We all waited for him to say "Next!" with a big smile. Since we were last, we could see how it went for the people before us, but I imagine it must have been really scary for the first ones.

The assistant asked if we wanted him to take pictures. After returning to land, he showed us the photos he took, so we could decide whether to buy them or not.

The takeoff was gentler than I expected, and we quickly soared into the sky. The view was amazing, and it wasn't scary at all. It felt great! Before returning to the boat, we landed in the water. The first person only got wet up to their calves, but since we were last, we went in up to our chests. The seawater was salty when it got in my mouth.

I thought the return to the boat would be a rough landing, but it was a gentle and soft touch down. When we looked at the photos afterward, we were all smiling broadly.

The crew was fantastic. It was a wonderful memory.

送迎の運転手さんは、英語で話してましたがときどき日本の芸人さんのギャグをかましてきて、楽しませよう！という気持ちが伝わってきて嬉しかった。
港に着いて、車から降りるとき「女の子だけ手を貸すから！」って言ってエスコートしてくれました。私たちのあとに降りた若い男の子にはしてなかった（笑）
運転手さんが「今日はキャプテン◯◯（聞き取れなかった）の船だよ、君たち運がいいよ！」と言ってたとおり、キャプテンめちゃめちゃ頼りになる。アシスタントのお兄ちゃんもノリよくて面白い。
船ではクラブ系の音楽がかかり、強制的にテンション上げてく感じ。波が高くて超揺れる。
英語で「靴脱いで！上着も脱いで！」との指示。順番にパラセーリング用の装備を付けていってくれます。
飛ぶ順番は完全にアシスタントのお兄ちゃん任せ。「Next!」といい笑顔で言われるのをみんなで待ちます。
私たちは最後だったので、前の人を見てこんな感じか〜と分かりましたが、たぶん先発の人はメチャメチャ怖いだろうな〜。
お兄ちゃんが写真撮るか？と聞いてくれます。陸に戻ってから、撮った写真を見せてくれるのでそれから買うかどうか判断してOK。
思っていたより優しい離陸、あっという間に上空へ。景色最高。ぜんぜん怖くない。気持ちいい！
船に戻る前に着水してくれます。最初の人はふくらはぎまでくらいだったのに、私たちは最後だったからか胸あたりまでいきました。海水が口に入ってしょっぱい。
船に帰ってくる時も、ドスン！って感じかと思ってたらフンワリと優しい着地。
帰ってきてから写真見たら全部超笑顔。
最高のクルー達でした。いい思い出です。

We went for my daughter's graduation, we had a great time. The food was ok, but the performances and audience involvement made up for it. My kids really enjoyed it! The sunset was amazing!!! This is a must do activity.

This time I participated alone.

This tour is not really meant for solo travelers. It's best suited for friends, families, or couples on their honeymoon.

However, you can only reach this place through a tour like this, so if you have the mindset of wanting to:
- Take Instagram-worthy photos,
- Not care at all about what others think even if you're alone,
- Not feel uncomfortable when asked, "Are you participating alone?"

Then I think this tour is great for you.

I personally wanted to capture the quintessential Hawaiian scenery. I joined just with that mindset, but various thoughts crossed my mind along the way. I recommend that those participating alone focus solely on enjoying the scenery!

To join a tour like this, you need to have the right mindset.

今回一人参加でした。

このツアーは一人で参加するようなツアーではないです。
友人同士、家族、新婚旅行などのカップル。
そういう方には最高のツアーだと思います。

ただ、この場所に来るにはこういうツアーでなければ行けないので
・とにかくインスタ映えするような景色を撮りたい
・自分は一人でも他人の目なんて一ミリたりとも気にしない
・やたら「一人参加？」と聞かれても嫌な思いをしない
そういう精神的な気持ちがある人ならば、このツアーはいいと思います。

自分はとにかくハワイらしい景色を撮りたい。
そういう気持ちだけで参加したのですが、途中でいろんなものが去来してしまいました。
一人で参加する人は、景色を楽しむ！という事だけを専念することをお勧めします。

こういうツアーに参加するには、それなりの気持ちが必要です。

Honestly, my backside got sore after two hours of horseback riding, but it was definitely worth the experience!

You can directly connect with the magnificent nature that served as the backdrop for Jurassic Park.

The horses know the course well, so they walk on their own without needing instructions (though they occasionally nibble on some grass... haha).

I was able to discover a new charm of Oahu.

2時間の乗馬は正直おしりがいたくなってしまいましたが、
それでも体験する価値ありです！

ジュラシックパークの舞台にもなった雄大な自然に直接
触れ合うことができます。

馬たちはコースを熟知しているので、指示しなくても勝手に
歩いていってくれます（時々草をつまみ食いされますが・・笑）

オアフ島の新たな魅力を知ることができました。

This was my first trip to Hawaii for our honeymoon. We chose this tour because it seemed like a great fit for both my athletic partner and my less coordinated self. There was a little hiccup at the hotel that morning, but the tour company responded quickly, and we were able to join the tour without any issues. Our guide was a Japanese man who kept us entertained with explanations of the scenery and quizzes during the drive.

The North Shore sightseeing allowed us to visit the places we wanted, so we took photos at the popular Instagram spot with the wings and visited Matsumoto Shave Ice. Unfortunately, there were no sea turtles at Turtle Beach, but it had a different atmosphere from Waikiki, and we enjoyed the scenery.

The much-anticipated horseback riding was led by a staff member, and we rode in a line along the beach and through the forest for 45 minutes. It seemed like they chose horses based on the participants' types; the horse I rode was very smart, carefully going down steps and staying in line. My partner's horse, on the other hand, was a bit mischievous, immediately going for grass and not keeping a consistent distance from the others (laughs). The staff also took photos with their phones during the ride. It was an amazing experience to hold the reins while gazing at the ocean.

On the way back, we stopped at a macadamia nut souvenir shop where we could crack and eat macadamia nuts ourselves, and there were various flavored nuts that I bought as souvenirs. We arrived back at the hotel by 3:30 PM, allowing us to spend our evening meaningfully. This tour was very satisfying, offering not only horseback riding but also sightseeing!

ハネムーンで初ハワイ。スポーツ万能な彼と運動音痴な私がお互い楽しめそう、と選んだのがこのツアー。当日の朝ホテルでハプニングがありましたが、ツアー会社の方が俊敏に対応して下さり無事ツアーに参加することが出来ました。アテンドさんは日本人男性で、車中から見える景色の説明やクイズなどをして下さり道中も退屈せずに過ごせました。ノースショア 観光はそれぞれが行きたい場所へ行けるので、インスタ人気の羽の壁で写真を撮ったり、マツモトシェイブアイスへ行きました。ウミガメビーチでは残念ながらウミガメは居ませんでしたがワイキキとは又違った雰囲気のビーチで景色だけでも楽しめました。お待ちかねの乗馬ですが、係の方を先頭に一列になって浜辺や森の中を45分かけて回ります。参加者のタイプに合わせた馬を選んでくれるみたいで、私を乗せてくれた馬はとても賢く、段差をゆっくり降りてくれたり列からはみ出さない馬でした。彼の方はすぐに草を食べに行ったり、馬間距離がバラバラだったりと中々やんちゃそうでしたが(笑)途中係の方が携帯で写真も撮ってくれます。自分で手綱を握りながら海を眺めるという最高の体験が出来ました。帰りに寄ったマカデミアナッツのお土産屋さんでは自分でマカデミアナッツを割って食べることが出来たり、色々なフレーバーのナッツがありお土産に買って帰りました。15時半にはホテルに着いたので、夜も有意義に時間を使えます。乗馬だけではなく観光も楽しめるとても満足なツアーでした！

The staff at Captain Cruise were all very fun, and they willingly took photos for us. The beautiful sandbar, turtle watching from the boat, and snorkeling were all so enjoyable! I did get sunburned, though! (laughs) I'm not a strong swimmer and was anxious about snorkeling, but they let me practice at the sandbar, and since I was wearing a life jacket, I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind! Thank you very much!

キャプテンクルーズのスタッフの皆さんもとっても楽しい方達で、写真も進んで撮ってくださったり、綺麗なサンドバー も船からのウミガメウォッチングもシュノーケリングも楽しすぎました！ただ焼けましたね！（笑）私は泳ぐのが苦手でシュノーケリングは不安でしたがサンドバー で練習させてくださり、ライフジャケットも付けてたので安心して楽しめました！ありがとうございました！

It was my first time paragliding, but since I wanted to experience it, I booked the highest option at 150 meters! The shuttle van arrived about 20 minutes earlier than scheduled, but I was already waiting, so it wasn't a problem. The same person picked us up and dropped us off, and although they were quiet, they were kind.

As for the paragliding, we boarded the same boat as two other newlywed couples and a family. The two staff members hardly spoke Japanese, but they made an effort to keep things lively and fun. Paragliding was very pleasant and truly enjoyable. I was able to purchase an SD card with 96 photos for $30.

パラセイリング 初めてでしたが、どうせ経験するならと1番高い150メートルで予約しました！
送迎のバン予定時刻より20分ぐらい早く来られましたが、それより早く待ってたので問題ありませんでした。行きも帰りも送迎同じ方で無口でしたが優しい方でした。
肝心のパラセイリング は他2組の新婚さんと親子と同じ船に乗り海に出ました。スタッフ2名ほぼ日本語は通じませんが、盛り上げようとたくさん楽しませてくれます。パラセイリング はとても気持ちよくて本当に楽しかったです。$30で96枚も写真データーが入ってるSDカード購入できました。

I was able to see wild dolphins up close, and I also got to see sea turtles much closer than I had expected! It became a once-in-a-lifetime memory that I can only experience here!

野生のイルカが生で見ることが出来たこと、さらにウミガメも思っていた以上に近距離で見れました！
ここでしか見ることが出来ない一生の思い出になりました！

The Japanese guide came to pick us up right on time in front of the hotel, which was very much appreciated. At first, I felt a bit anxious about the situation being only in English, but I felt reassured knowing that there were two other groups of Japanese participants. The height of 150 meters felt higher than when I went parasailing once before, but it was a very pleasant and enjoyable experience! I also decided to purchase the aerial photos for $30 since it seemed worth it.

集合時間ちょうどにホテル前日本人迎えに来てくださり、とてもありがたかったです。初めは英語だけの状況に少し不安もありましたが、他に2組日本人の方が参加されていたこともあり安心できました。150メートルの高さは昔に一度パラセーリングをやった時よりも高く感じましたが、とても気持ちよく楽しい時間でした！
空中の写真も30ドルはせっかくだからと思い購入しました。

It took longer to get around than I expected, and I returned to my room late, but I was glad to see the sea turtles. I heard there was a Japanese guide in the morning, so I aimed for that and was very satisfied with my reservation.

思いのほか移動に時間がかかり部屋に戻るのが遅くなりましたが海ガメに会えたし良かったです。午前中は日本語ガイドがあると聞いていたのでそれを狙って予約できて大変満足です。

My tour of the Big Island was canceled at the last minute due to the volcanic eruption, so since I was already in Hawaii, I quickly booked a sunset cruise. Thanks to arriving early, I was able to get a nice window seat and was among the first in line for the buffet, which made me happy. The experience wasn't perfect because there was a Chinese family whose kids were climbing on the sofa with their shoes on, throwing cushions, and running around, making a lot of noise. It really ruined the atmosphere.

ハワイ島観光が噴火の影響で直前キャンセルになり、すでにハワイにいたので急遽サンセットクルーズを申し込みました。
早めに現地に着いたおかげで窓側のいい席をとれてブッフェも最初に並ぶことができて満足です。
満点にならなかったのは中国のファミリーがいて子供達が土足でソファにあがったり、クッション投げをしたり、バタバタ走り回っていてうるさかったです。せっかくのムードが台無し。

This was my second time at the sandbar. Unfortunately, the tide was lower than last time, and the sandbar didn't appear. However, I was able to enjoy activities like beach volleyball. The cruise staff were lively and created a great atmosphere, making it a fun cruise. The lunch was delicious too!

2回目のサンドバーでした。前回より潮のヒキが少なく、残念ながらサンドバーが現れてはいませんでした。でも、ビーチバレーなど楽しむことが出来ました。クルースタッフがノリが良く雰囲気を作ってくれたので、楽しいクルーズでした。ランチも美味しかった～

This time, I challenged myself to a height of 150 meters. The view was truly beautiful, and I’m glad I experienced it. The crew was friendly and made it enjoyable. I signed up for photo shooting for $30, but it was disappointing that the quality was poor... I probably won’t request photos again.

今回は高さ150Mに挑戦。
景色が本当に綺麗で体験して良かった。
クルーも愛想良く楽しませてもらえました。
写真撮影を３0ドルで申し込んだが画質が汚かったのが残念・・・
写真はもう頼むことはないかな

This is my second time. Last time, I went there by rental car, but I struggled with securing parking and paying for parking fees, so this time I requested a free shuttle service. The shuttle arrived on time at a nearby hotel, and we were dropped off at the same place on the way back. The hotel was in Waikiki, and we returned in less than two hours. Parasailing was just as enjoyable as last time, with the staff's humorous approach and the view from 130 meters high was fantastic, leaving me feeling refreshed. I had a great time without any complaints.

２回目です。前回はレンターカーで現地に行きましたが、駐車場の確保や駐車料金の支払いに苦労したので、今回は無料の送迎を頼みました。
送迎車は時間通りに近くのホテルまで来て、帰りも同じところで下車です。
ホテルはワイキキでしたが、2時間もかからずに戻ってきました。
パラセイリングは、前回同様スタッフのユーモアあふれる対応、高度130mの景色は最高で気分爽快、文句なしに楽しめました。

I went on three tours: a movie location tour, a jungle exploration tour, and a garden tour. All of them were rich in nature and enjoyable.

・映画ロケ地ツアー、ジャングル探検ツアー、ガーデンツアーの３つを回りました。どれも自然が豊かで楽しかったです。

A family of 11, including adults and infants, participated. They enjoyed a fun time while eating at the buffet, and eventually, as sunset approached, everyone was satisfied.

大人、乳幼児11人のファミリー参加しました。
ビュッフェを食べながら楽しく過ごし、やがてサンセットの時間になりみんな満足していました。

I participated in a horseback riding and North Shore sightseeing tour. Since I had previously joined a seaside course, this time I chose the valley course. Riding a horse along the hilly mountain paths was a lot of fun. Also, I was lucky to have the weekend-only huli huli chicken for lunch in Haleiwa. The driver was very pleasant and accommodating. If I have the chance, I would love to participate again. Thank you!

乗馬とノースショア観光のコースに参加しました。
乗馬は、以前海辺コースに参加したことがあるので、今回は渓谷のコースにしました。
アップダウンのある山道を馬に乗って進むのは大変楽しい時間でした。
また、ハレイワでの昼食は週末限定のフリフリチキンを食べることが出来てラッキーでした。
ドライバーの方は大変気持ちのいい対応でした。
機会があればまた参加させて頂きます。
ありがとうございました！

I couldn't see any sea turtles. Due to the poor footing in the canyon, we switched to horseback riding along the coastal route. The one-hour horseback ride was easy to manage with well-trained horses.

ウミガメは見れませんでした。渓谷は足場が悪くなったことから、海岸ルートの乗馬に変更になりました。1時間程度の乗馬はしっかりと調教された馬で乗りやすかったです。

The driver who spoke Japanese considered a route that passed through areas not visited by participants, providing commentary on the scenery as we traveled, which made me feel like I was sightseeing twice as much beyond just the North Shore.

Even for someone like me who is not athletic, I was able to enjoy horseback riding with the guidance of the staff at the local resort.

The horse was larger than a pony but smaller than a racehorse, and it was properly trained to ensure there was no risk of it running away, so there was no danger of falling off.

Above all, the scenery along the beach as we rode with the horse was beautiful.

日本語が話せるドライバーさんが、

時間が可能な限り、参加者が訪れていないエリアを通るルートを考慮して、景色の解説を交えつつ、移動してくれたので、ノースショア以外も２倍観光できた気分になった。

運動音痴の自分でも、現地リゾートの係員さんの手解きをうけ、楽しく乗馬できました。

ポニーより大きい馬でしたが、
競走馬より小さい馬で、しかも、暴走することのないようキチンと調教されており、
落馬の危険もありませんでした。

なにより馬と一緒にすすむ海辺の景色が美しかった。
