The entire experience was amazing. The crew was friendly, the scooters themselves were fun, and the divers that stayed next to each scooter did such a great job showing the sights and making it fun. Easily a highlight of our trip!

My mother and I participated in a two-hour horseback riding course. My 71-year-old mother was extremely nervous at first, but by the middle of the ride, she was finally able to enjoy the scenery. My horse was at the back, eating grass and lagging behind, which led to some scary moments. At one point, it charged towards a spiky plant like a cactus while trying to eat grass, and my hands ended up all scratched. I recommend wearing long sleeves and long pants.

I regretted not having a digital camera that could be used with one hand, as it was difficult to take good photos with my phone. This is an experience you can't have in Japan, so definitely give it a try!

親娘2人で乗馬2時間コースに参加しました。71歳の母は、最初、緊張しまくりでしたが、中盤になったらやっと景色を楽しめるようになりました。私の馬は最後尾で、草食べては遅れをとって、駆け足になる馬で怖い場面もあり、また草を食べに行く時に、サボテンのような棘のある植物に突進していき、手が傷だらけになりました。長袖、長ズボンをおススメします。
写真は携帯では、なかなかうまく撮れないので、片手で撮れるデジカメの方が良かったと後悔しました。日本では出来ない経験なので、是非やってみてください。

The whole experience was being on the sandbar, which was amazing. However the tide was to our waist and it wasn't very sunny so I'd plan better for a low tide. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Don't get excited about the BBQ lunch. It was fine but frozen stacks of burgers.

The highlight of snorkeling was seeing a giant sea Turtle, beyond that the water conditions made it hard to see other fish. And I doubted the sterilization of the snorkel gear.

I participated for the first time in Hawaii, but the local explanations were somewhat inadequate and hard to understand. I wish I could have done things at my own pace!

初ハワイで参加しましたが
現地の方の説明適当だし説明がわかりにくかった
もうすこし自分のタイミングでやらせてもらいたかった！

I had a very precious experience swimming in a pool with dolphins, touching them, and holding onto their fins!

Although the price isn't cheap, I felt it was worth more than the cost!

They also took several photos for us, and the composition was great, so I decided to purchase them. It became a wonderful memory.

イルカと一緒のプールに入り
イルカに触れたり、ヒレに掴まって泳いだり
とても貴重な体験ができました！

価格も安くはないですが、値段以上の価値はあると感じました！

写真も何枚かとってもらえるのですが、
構図もよくて買わせていただき、
いい思い出になりました

My first parasailing experience. I flew with my 88-year-old grandmother and mother. The crew was very considerate of my grandmother throughout the experience and made it enjoyable for her. My grandmother was very happy, saying, "I can't believe I can fly at this age; this has created a lifelong memory." Thank you very much!

はじめてのパラセーリング。88歳の祖母と母と飛びました。クルーの皆さまには終始祖母を気遣い、楽しませて頂きました。祖母も「こんな歳で空を飛べるなんて、一生の思い出ができた」と大変喜んでいました。ありがとうございました！

Captain Dave and deck hands Dave and Martin were fantastic. We had young and old on the trip and everyone had a good time - except maybe the ones who got seasick - it was a little rough on the day of our trip according to Martin. The time in the cage was worth the cost and each person had plenty of time in the cage to see the sharks. You have to have some strength in your arms to hold onto the cage and keep your body in position to see the sharks. Not sure if the rough conditions added to that or not. Once in a life time experience, so if you are unsure about doing it - do it for sure! The ocean water was an amazing deep blue that was a surprise to me, it was awesome!!!

It was boring because everything was in English and I couldn't understand what was being said. It felt like a waste of money since it was only foreigners who were excited. The snacks were also not great.

英語ばかりで英語がわからないと何を言っているのかわからずつまらなかった。外国人だけで盛り上がり高いお金を出したのにもったいなかったです。軽食ももイマイチでした。

Amazing experience! Very easy to watch turtles and swim with them!

The shuttle service was smooth, and the crew members were foreigners who entertained us with their broken Japanese and good vibes.

Sailing while enjoying the streets of Waikiki and Diamond Head was truly refreshing and amazing.

If I get the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to do this!

送迎もスムーズで
クルーの方も外人さんでしたが片言の日本語で
ノリも良く楽しませてもらえました

ワイキキの街並みやダイアモンドヘッドを眺めながらのセーリングは本当に気持ちがよくて最高でした

またハワイに行けたら絶対にやりたいです！

I signed up for the 11 AM start. They came to pick me up around 9 AM in Waikiki. It was reassuring to have a Japanese staff member with us from pick-up to drop-off. The weather wasn't great, but we encountered a sea turtle right at the start. As soon as we began snorkeling, we were able to see a pod of dolphins. It felt like we were floating on the surface while watching the dolphins swim below us.

After about 30 minutes, we got back on the boat and enjoyed hamburgers while watching the staff perform hula. I didn't have high expectations for lunch, so it was neither good nor bad. Although it was mentioned that there would be SUP and a slide, there were very few of them, so we couldn't enjoy them much.

The staff were all young and seemed to be having fun joking around the whole time.

I signed up to receive photos on a USB for $55. There were quite a few photos, but only a few of them had us looking decent. Most were pictures of strangers who were on the same boat. I wasn't sure what to do with those. Additionally, there were many photos of dolphins and sea turtles that definitely weren't from today, which was disappointing. I didn't need those kinds of photos.

１１時スタートに申込み
９時頃にワイキキにお迎えに来てくれます。
お迎えから送りまで日本人のスタッフさんがついていてくれるので安心感がありました。
天気はあまり良くなかったのですがスタートしていきなりウミガメに遭遇～
シュノーケリング始めるとすぐにイルカの群れを見ることができました。
海上にプカプカ浮きながら海中を泳いでるイルカを眺める感じでした。
３０分弱で船上にあがりスタッフのフラダンスを眺めながらハンバーガーをいただきました
ランチには期待してなかったので可もなく不可もなくといったところです。
SUPや滑り台もあると記載されてましたが数が少なく
なかなか楽しめませんでした

スタッフのみなさんお若くて
終始自分たちがふざけあって楽しんでらっしゃる

写真をUSBでもらえるので申込みましたが（55＄）
写真のボリュームはありましたが、自分たちがまともにうつってる写真は数枚
同船してた知らない人の写真ばかり
そんなのもらってもどうしてよいものか
また、絶対に今日の写真ではないイルカやウミガメの写真が盛りだくさん使われていたのにはガッカリ
こんな写真ならいらなかったです

The horse was very calm and took its time eating grass... I went horseback riding for the first time and it was so much fun. I thought the two-hour course would be long, but it wasn't long at all! It was just right since my hips started to hurt a bit (laughs). The hamburger was really delicious, so I think you should definitely try it when you go!

Since the shuttle service was fully booked, I took the bus, but there was a bus stop right in front of Kualoa Ranch, and it was easy to get there with just one bus from Ala Moana! My inner thighs, which I don't usually use, are sore, but I want to go again!

馬はとても大人しくマイペースでよく草を食べてました...初めて乗馬をしましたがとても楽しかったです。2時間のコースは長いかと思いましたが全然長くないです！股関節も痛くなってくるので丁度良いです（笑）ハンバーガーがとても美味しかったので行ったら是非食べた方が良いと思います♪
送迎付きがいっぱいだったためバスに乗って行きましたがクアロアランチ の目の前にバス停があり、アラモアナから1本で簡単に行けました！
普段使わない内腿が筋肉痛になりましたが、また行きたいです！

Swimming with dolphins was amazing, and I also got to sing, dance hula, and experience the local culture! This tour sparked my interest in Hawaii and local culture, making me want to go back! The crew was very enthusiastic about entertaining the guests, which made me really happy!

Please note that banana-patterned swimsuits are prohibited, and you're not allowed to eat or bring bananas in the morning, so be careful! There were many newlyweds on the tour!

イルカと一緒に泳ぐことはもちろん、歌を歌ったり、フラを踊ったり、ロコの文化を感じることができました！ハワイやロコ文化に興味が湧いてきて、また行きたい！と思わせてくれるツアーでした♩
また、クルーもツアー客を楽しませる熱意が強くて、気持ちがすごく嬉しかったです！
バナナ柄の水着は禁止で、朝にバナナを食べて行ったり、持って行くことも禁止なので気をつけてくださいねー！
新婚さんが多かったです！

I signed up for a height of 150m. At first, I was worried about my fear of heights, but once I took off, I felt completely at ease and, on the contrary, it was fun. The captain and the assistant, who was also in charge of the camera, were friendly, and I made great memories.

高さ150mで申し込みしました、最初は高さの恐怖があり心配でしたが飛んでしまうと全く不安なく、逆に楽しかったです。船長さん、助手件カメラ担当の方も気さくな方で良い思い出ができました。

I made a reservation for a low tide day during my stay in Hawaii. The weather was great, and it was really beautiful. The BBQ hamburgers were delicious because they grilled the meat right there, and they were huge! I was also able to see sea turtles from the boat.

It seemed that the visibility for snorkeling wasn't great that day, so we could only see around the coral reefs, but they give you bread to feed the fish, which was fun. It was a very enjoyable tour.

The bus ride was extremely cold due to the air conditioning, so it's essential to prepare for the cold.

ハワイ滞在中での干潮の日に予約しました。
天気にも恵まれすごく綺麗でした。
BBQのハンバーガーもお肉をその場で焼いてくれるのでとっても美味しかったです。しかも大きい！
海亀も船の上からですが見れました。

シュノーケリングはその日は透明度が悪かったようで珊瑚礁周りしか見えませんが、餌用にパンをくれるので魚が寄ってきたり楽しめます。
とても楽しいツアーでした。

道中のバスはエアコンがとにかく寒いので、寒さ対策は必須です。

The brothers were really cheerful, and even though I didn't understand the words at all (laughs), they interacted with me a lot and it was so much fun! They took a lot of photos with a DSLR camera (for a fee), and everyone had the best smiles! The weather was nice, so the scenery was amazing! I highly recommend it!

お兄さん達がすごく愉快で、言葉は全然分かりませんでしたが(笑)、いっぱい絡んでくれてとっても楽しかったです！一眼レフで写真もいっぱい撮ってくれて(有料)皆最高の笑顔でした＼(^o^)／晴れていたので景色も最高！おススメです！

There were staff members who spoke Japanese, creating a very friendly environment. The instructor only spoke English, but they guided us in a way that was easy to understand. If you go to the first session in the morning, you'll make it in time for the 12:30 show, and you'll be able to return to Waikiki in the afternoon, making good use of your time.

日本語を話せる受付の方もいて、とても親切な環境でした。インストラクターは英語のみですが分かりやすく進行してくれます。朝一の回に行くと、1230のショーにも間に合い、午後にはワイキキに戻れて時間も有効につかえますよ。

The pineapple garden at Dole was a bit rushed due to time constraints, but I was satisfied with the sightseeing! There were height and weight restrictions for horseback riding, so I chose this course, but in reality, they didn't check my weight or height closely, so I thought I should have gone for the mountain course instead. The weight limit was stated as 102 kilograms, but the trainer looked like he was over 120 kilograms, haha. My child's height was also not enough, but it was okay!

I can't speak English, but since a Japanese guide explained things along the way, there were no issues!

If I go again, I would definitely choose a longer horseback riding experience on a course with better scenery!

Thank you!

ドールのパイナップル園とか、何せ時間が少しずつだったので少し慌ただしかったが、観光面では満足でした！
乗馬の身長体重規制があったので、このコースを選びましたが、実際には体重も身長も細かく言われなかったので山のコースにすれば良かった〜( ´Д`)y━･~~と思いました。
体重も102キロ迄とありましたが、実際トレーナーの方は120キロオーバーに見えました笑
子供の身長も全然足りませんでしたがオーケーでした！

英語も喋れませんが、予め、日本のガイドの方が道中で説明してくれたので問題ありませんでした！

次回行くことがあるなら、是非もっと長く乗馬が出来て、景色の良いコースにします！

ありがとうございました！

It's a really fun activity. Before experiencing it, I was worried that it might be scary, but it wasn't scary at all. The view of Hawaii from above was amazing, and it felt wonderful to feel the wind. When I come to Hawaii again, I definitely want to experience this again. I also highly recommend the SD card for the photos I bought for $30!

とっても楽しいアクティビティです。体験する前は、怖いのかなーって心配していましたが、全く怖くなんかなかったし、上から眺めるハワイの風景は素晴らしく、風を受けて最高に気持ちよかったです。又ハワイに来た時は、ぜひこちらで体験したいと思います。30で買った写真のSDカードもぜひおススメです！

It was my first horseback riding experience in Hawaii. I thought the sun would be strong, so I participated wearing sunglasses and long sleeves. There were few participants in the 2-hour course, which made it very enjoyable. Unfortunately, I could only take photos while the horse was walking, so I missed the chance to take pictures at the sign in the filming location of Jurassic Park. I participated with my sister and niece, so it felt like we were taking pictures of each other from the front and back. It was helpful that there was a bag on the horse that could hold a plastic bottle and my phone. I would like to participate again.

ハワイでははじめての乗馬体験でした。
日差しが強いかと思い、サングラスと長袖で参加しました。
2時間コースの参加者が少なく、とても楽しく出来ました。
写真は馬が歩きながらのみでしたので、せっかくのジュラシックパークの映画ロケ地での看板がある所で写真が撮れず残念でした。
お姉ちゃんと、姪っ子との参加でしたので、前からと後ろからの写真の撮り合いという感じでした。
馬にペットボトルと携帯が入る位の袋がついており助かりました。
また参加したいと思います。

Taking my mothers on the 1000-foot course! We challenged ourselves to 150m!!

While others were younger and went for the 800-foot course, I was worried about how it would go, but my mothers seemed to have an amazing time. The view from 1000 feet was absolutely incredible, and I believe the panoramic view from Pearl Harbor to Diamond Head is something you'll cherish for a lifetime!

As for my daughter and me, while we enjoyed ourselves, my husband, who has a fear of heights, was quite tense. When I asked him how it was, he said it was really scary, but it was still a great experience! We were in the middle of the group, so we managed to avoid getting seasick, but it seems that those who jumped first and last had a tough time with seasickness. I recommend that anyone prone to motion sickness take some medication beforehand! It was quite bumpy and challenging! Also, you won't get wet at all, so make sure to wear makeup and bring sunglasses! The sunlight is strong and can be quite painful!

母達を連れて1000フィートコース！150mへチャレンジ！！
他の方は若いのに800フィートコースでしたので、どーなることやらと心配しましたが、母達はめちゃくちゃ楽しかったみたいで、1000フィートから見る景色は、それはそれはすごくて、パールハーバーからダイアモンドヘッドまでパノラマの景色は一生モノだと思います！
娘の私たちは、楽しさもですが、夫は高所恐怖症な為、ジーーットしてたので、どーだった？って聞いたら、めちゃくちゃ怖かったーーっと言っていましたが、それでもいい体験で最高でした！私たちは真ん中のメンバーだったので、酔うことなく過ごせましたが、最初に飛んだ人達と最後の人達は船酔いが半端なかったみたいなので、船に弱い人は酔い止めを飲んでおいた方がいいと思います！かなり揺れてかなり大変です！あと、全く濡れる事はないので、顔はしっかり化粧して、サングラスは持っていった方が良いと思います！日差しが強くて痛いくらいです！

I was a bit anxious with just a simple explanation, but the horses were very well trained, and I was able to enjoy the experience. The scenery was also beautiful, and I think I was able to see a lot of Kualoa Ranch through this one experience. The guide was very kind, taking photos during the experience and also taking pictures for me from great spots.

簡単な説明のみで、不安でしたが馬がとても良く調教されており楽しんで体験することができました。
景色もとても良く、この体験一つでクアロアランチを大体みて回れたと思います。
ガイドさんもとても優しく、体験中写真を撮ってくれたり、いい場所からの写真を代わりに撮ってくれたりしてとても優しかったです。

This is my second time experiencing horseback riding, having first tried it in Haleiwa. Last time, I rode for an hour in the mountains, but this time at Kualoa, the ride was longer and I was excited because it’s a filming location for Jurassic Park. It was quite difficult to take photos while riding, and I was disappointed that I couldn't capture them as I had hoped.

ハレイワではじめて乗馬を体験し、今回で二度目になります。前回は一時間で山の中の乗馬でしたがクアロアでの乗馬は時間も長くジュラシックパークのロケ地ということもあって期待していました。馬に乗りながら写真を撮ることはなかなか難しく、思うようには撮れなかったのが残念でした。

I experienced it at 120 meters. It was scarier than I expected, but the weather was great and the scenery was really beautiful. I'm not sure if we were actually in the air for 8 minutes; it might have felt short because it was so much fun.

Including us, there were 5 groups, and we returned to the port after an hour, so participating in the morning allowed us to make good use of the rest of the day.

Especially before heading out to sea, the boat swayed a lot, so if you're feeling even a little anxious, it might be a good idea to take some motion sickness medication.

120mで体験しました。思っていたよりも怖かったですが、天気にも恵まれて景色はすごく綺麗。実際に8分空にいたのかは疑問？楽しかったので短くて感じたのかもしれませんが。
私たちも含めて5グループで、一時間後には港に帰ってきたので、朝参加するとその後の時間も有効活用できたのでよかったです。
特に沖に出るまでは船がすごくゆれるので、少しでも不安な方は酔い止めは飲んでおいたほうがいいかもしれないです。

Awesome time and great staff! Will have to do this one again next time.

Everyone was friend and outgoing! Great staff!!! (:

We made an internet reservation on-site with three guys who got along well. It was all of our first time horseback riding, but we had an incredibly fun time unique to Hawaii. Everything from check-in to the explanations was in English. If that's okay with you, there are no problems at all. I highly recommend it.

気の合うメンズ3人で現地インターネット予約。3人とも初めての乗馬でしたが、ハワイならではのサイコーに楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。受付から説明、何もかも英語オンリーです。その点オッケーならば全く問題ナシ。おすすめです。

A Japanese instructor guided us, making it reassuring even for those who struggle with English. On the day of the trip, the waves were rough, and many people got seasick, so it's better for those who are prone to motion sickness to take medication beforehand.

日本人インストラクターがガイドをしてくれ、英語が苦手な人でも安心。
当日は波が激しかったので、船酔い者続出だったけど、酔いやすい人はよいどめのんでったほうがいいよ。

My son (7 years old), who can't swim, was thrilled to chase dolphins and see green sea turtles using a life jacket and snorkel. He was able to see dolphins swimming right under his feet, and those rare sights are etched in his memory. He is now saying he wants to participate in Manta University on the Big Island to meet manta rays next time.

Participating in Dolphin University and experiencing the friendliness of the captain and staff made for a great family outing, and we are very satisfied.

泳げない息子（７歳）が、ライフジャケットとシュノーケルを使ってイルカを追いかけたり、アオウミガメを見たりで、大喜びをしていました。また、泳いでいるイルカが足の下を泳ぐのを見れたり、中々、出会えない光景が目に焼き付いています。息子は今度、ハワイ島でマンタ大学にも参加してマンタに会いたい言っています。
　イルカ大学に参加して、フレンドリーな船長とスタッフの明るさに触れて、いい家族サービスが出来て満足です。
