I chose the 90m option, and it was higher than I imagined, with a longer duration. However, if you're going to experience it, I recommend the 90m. Anything more might have too long of a hang time?
Be careful of seasickness. I had never experienced motion sickness before, but I almost felt it for the first time. However, the captain advised me to look far away, and doing that, along with flying in the sky, helped me feel better.
While floating in the air, I watched helicopters and Cessnas, and I think it's a wonderful experience to drift so quietly in the sky. It seems there are other parasailing tours available as well.
The crew takes photos for you, and when you return to land, they sell you the entire set on an SD card for $30, but we didn't buy it.
You'll need a swimsuit and a towel. If you're going to take photos with your phone, a waterproof one is safer. Women were not allowed to wear a skirt over their swimsuits. At the end, they let you dip down to your waist, which feels nice.
By the way, the reason I'm standing with my legs together in the photos is because of the ropes. Have a great trip!
90mを選びましたが想像以上に高く、時間は長めです、しかしせっかく体験するのであれば90mをおすすめします。それ以上は滞空時間が長すぎるかも?
船酔いには注意してください。今まで乗り物酔いをした事無かったけど初めて酔いそうになりました、しかし船長さんが遠くを見るようアドバイスくれて、それをした事と、空に飛んだ事で大丈夫でした。
空に浮きながらヘリやセスナを眺めたんですけど、こんなに静かに空を漂えるってとても素晴らしい体験だと思います。他にもパラセーリングツアーはあるようです。
乗組員の方が写真を撮ってくれて陸に戻るとSDカードに入れて自分達のを丸ごと売ってくれます、
30ドルですが私達は買いませんでした。
水着とタオルがいります。携帯は撮影するなら防水が安心です。女性は水着の上にスカートはいたらだめでした。最後は腰あたりまで着水させてくれて気持ちいいですよ。
所で、写真で内股になっているのはロープのせいですよ。良い旅を!

I tried parasailing for the first time.
The weather was great on the day of the activity, and our boat set off with three groups: a group of Japanese people, a group of Westerners, and us.
We headed out to sea for about 15 minutes before taking off into the sky.
We chose the 120m option and were the second group to go.
There were two male staff members who were very friendly, cheerful, and had a playful spirit, which made it a lot of fun.
At first, I was worried because I’m not good with heights, but for some reason, I felt completely at ease and there wasn’t much swaying.
The view of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and the vast ocean from above was exceptional, and it was a wonderful experience!
I thought I would like to go parasailing again when I visit next time. Thank you!
パラセーリングは初めて挑戦しました。
当日はとても天気がよく、私達を含め、日本人のグループ、欧米の方のグループの3グループで船は出発しました。
15分ほど沖に向かい、そこから空へ飛び立ちます。
私たちは120mを選び、2番めでした。
スタッフは男性二人でしたが、とても気さくで明るく、遊び心がありとても楽しめました。
最初高いところが苦手なので怖かったらどうしようと思っていましたが、なぜか全く怖くなく、揺れもそんなにありませんでした。
空から眺めるワイキキの街とダイヤモンドヘッドと広い海は格別で、とても良い経験でした!
また訪れた際には、パラセーリングしたいなーと思いました。

We experienced this as two women. The staff doesn't speak Japanese, but they provide a Japanese instruction manual, so there are no safety concerns. We were taken up to a height of 150 meters, which is probably something you can't experience in Japan, and we enjoyed it while squealing with excitement. Considering it's equivalent to the 50th floor of a building, it can be intimidating, but we had so much fun up there without any fear. The time spent in the air was also very long, and we were completely satisfied. The wet landing was thrilling and a lot of fun (if you don't want to get wet, just let them know you prefer a dry landing).
Since it was full, I was worried about the long wait time, but in reality, it passed quickly as we took photos and admired the rainbow over Diamond Head, so it wasn't a problem at all (it might have been nice that it was cloudy, so we were comfortable without suffering from the heat). If I had to point out a downside, it would be that the time between the shuttle bus arriving at the boat dock and the boat's departure was quite long. However, this might be unavoidable for scheduling purposes.
女性2人で体験しました。
スタッフは日本語は通じませんが、日本語の説明書を配ってくれるので、安全面での心配はありません。
150mという、おそらく日本では体験できないであろう高さまで上げてもらい、キャーキャー言いながら満喫しました。ビルの50階相当の高さと考えるとびびりますが、上空ではそんな恐怖心もなく楽しめました。滞空時間もとても長く、十分満足できました。wet landingもスリル満点でとても楽しかったです(濡れるのが嫌な場合は、dry landingと声をかけておけば大丈夫なようです)。
満員だったので待ち時間が長くてしんどいかなと心配しましたが、実際は、写真を撮りあったり、虹のかかったダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めたりしているうちにあっという間に過ぎてしまい、全く苦になりませんでした(曇りだったので、暑さに苦しむことなく快適に過ごせたのもよかったのかもしれません)。
強いて言うなら、送迎バスがボート乗り場に着いてからボートの出発までの時間が長いのが難点でしょうか。余裕をもったスケジューリングという意味ではやむを得ないのかもしれませんが。

I was able to see dolphins!!!
Since I had heard that wild dolphins might not be seen sometimes, I was a bit worried about today, but I was truly moved to be able to see them o(^▽^)o♡
I was able to see them so clearly that I felt like I was looking at an aquarium tank.
I got to watch them swim for a while, and I was so happy to see a small baby dolphin too!
They swam quite close to us.
The dolphins were really cute o(^▽^)o
Not only dolphins, but I also saw about five or six sea turtles!
It was my first time seeing so many sea turtles up close, and I was really impressed!
When they came up for air, I was able to see them so closely, it was amazing!! I regretted not bringing an underwater camera... (laughs)
On the boat heading to the dolphin swimming point, the crew members kept the atmosphere lively, and we had a great time♡
The hula dance was wonderful too♡♡
I've participated in various tours before, but I think this was the most fun tour I've ever had!
The Japanese was so good, just like a native speaker, so I had no trouble during the tour (^。^)
I definitely want to participate again when I go to Hawaii! Thank you so much!

The weather was unfortunately bad, but I was satisfied with all three courses.
The movie location tour was especially enjoyable, with the guide's stories being fun, and I loved taking photos with the dinosaur figures. I was thrilled to see the set of my favorite show, Five-O.
The jungle experience tour only had an English-speaking guide, but they explained things clearly, so I understood somewhat. They also spoke a bit of Japanese here and there.
On the boat tour, we were able to see the mountain range from the water, and when we went out to sea, the waves were strong, making the boat rise and fall like a theme park attraction, which was fun.
I was really glad they provided motion sickness medication, as all the rides had quite a bit of shaking, which was a big help.
I booked at the last minute, so this was the only tour available, but I would like to participate in horseback riding next time. It seemed that people in the horseback riding group were buying a locker key for $5 to store their belongings. It looks like it's better to go light.
生憎の天気だったのですが、3つのコース全て満足しました。

First I was really afraid because I can barely float, I don't swimming if is not at the pool and going short distance. But I decided to have a new experience as a solo traveler in Hawaii as my first visit. The crew were just amazing, the lady at office received me with a big smile and was very friendly. The rest of the crew really made me feels good and my fears went away. When we got to the spot in the sea the first animal I saw was a turtle, and was an amazing feeling. While the crew organizing every scooter the only thing in my mind was "oh please I don't want to be the first one", after the captain told me I will be the next, I ended up being the third person going under. Words can not explain, you really need to go and have this experience where you can actually be close and touch animals under the sea.
I was lucky enough to see turtles, different kind of fish and even an octopus that got stuck on my big helmet for my pictures and video.
By the end of the day I got my photos and video, I've played my video and couldn't believe that the woman was me, they really did a good job, from the beginning to the end
I really recommend BOB's Adventure underwater scooter, specially if you don't swim at all, like me.
PS: I took the bus to get there from downtown, the commute was really easy and you will get so see more.

The sandbars you see on TV only appear when you calculate the tides. If you happen to experience a water depth of around your ankles, I think you’re quite lucky. The world you see on TV might be a bit difficult to experience on a tour, unless you rent a private boat and plan the date and time accordingly. When I went, it was from mid to late September, and the shallowest part was about halfway up my thighs.
Indeed, the water near the sandbar was clear and beautiful. However, it rained, and the overall experience was somewhat lacking.
The hamburgers made on the boat were delicious. The patties were frozen, but they grilled them on a BBQ, so they tasted great.
The issue came after lunch. We moved from the sandbar to an area with lots of coral for snorkeling. They took us to a place where you could say the coral spread over a large area. We were warned not to touch the coral, but depending on the tides, in shallow areas, the coral was about 30 cm below the surface. Can you swim in such places? The coral wasn’t particularly beautiful, and there weren’t many fish, so I didn’t feel the joy of snorkeling at all. Additionally, I was the only one who got stung by jellyfish multiple times on both shoulders and hands, having to endure pain and itching. You could say I was unlucky, but for this kind of experience, it felt overpriced.
テレビで観るようなサンドバーは潮の満ち引きを計算しないと現れません。
偶然にも足首程度の水深を体験出来た方は、かなりラッキーだと思います。
テレビで観るような世界は、ちょっとツアーでは難しいかな?プライベートで借り切って、日にちや時間も計算して行くなら別ですけど。
私が行った時は9月中旬~下旬にかけてでしたが、1番浅い所で太股の中間ぐらいでした。
確かにサンドバー近くは海は透き通っていて、きれいではありました。
しかし、雨は降るし、何とも言えない感じでした。
ただ船の上で作ってくれるハンバーガーは美味しかったです。( ´艸`)パテは冷凍物ですが、BBQ用のコンロ?で焼いてくれるので、美味しかったです。
問題はランチを食べた後。
サンドバーから、珊瑚がたくさんあるところへ移動して、シュノーケリングをします。確かに珊瑚のの岩と言ってもいいぐらい大きい範囲にわたって珊瑚がある場所に連れて行ってくれます。
珊瑚には触らないようにと注意を受けましたが、潮の具合なのか浅いところだと水面から30cmぐらいの所に珊瑚があります。こんな所で泳げますか??
特にキレイ珊瑚でもないし、魚がたくさんいるわけでもなく、シュノーケリングの楽しさが全く感じられませんでした。
そして私だけクラゲにたくさん刺されて両肩、両手と痛みと痒みに耐えなければなりませんでした。
運がなかったと言えばそれまでですが、こんな内容に対しては高いという感じです。

This is our fourth trip to Hawaii, and we are a couple in our 60s and late 50s. Until now, we have never experienced any attractions at the beach, mostly sticking to non-active optional tours like sightseeing in the North Shore, dinner cruises, Polynesian shows, and restaurants. Therefore, we were filled with anxiety about parasailing right up until the last minute!
Our departure time was for the 9 AM course (the second one after 9 AM that day), and the participants included a couple in their 60s, two Japanese women, a Japanese family of four, and us, totaling ten people along with two foreign guides. We boarded the motorboat and headed about 20 minutes offshore, where we paired up and attached parachutes to our backs to float up into the sky.
First, two young women took off, followed by the foreign couple, and everyone seemed to be handling it well. Finally, it was our turn; we attached the parachute to our life jackets and, in no time, we were 90 meters up. There was no wind at that height, and the view of the truly blue ocean below was amazing. In the end, we dipped our lower bodies into the water. The flying time was about 10 to 15 minutes. It was not scary at all and was the best moment!
The two foreign guides explained everything in English, but even someone like me, who hardly speaks English, could understand. They also took photos for us (for $30). I definitely want to try parasailing at 150 meters next time!
今回が4回目のハワイとなる63歳と50後半の夫婦です。これまで、海でのアトラクションの体験はなく、ほとんどノースショア観光、ディナークルーズ、ポリネシアンショー、レストランなどの体を動かさないオプショナルツアーばかりでした。
ですから、今回のパラセイリングは直前まで、不安でいっぱい!
私達の出発時刻は9時のコースで(当日の9時の次の2回目)、参加者は60歳代の外人夫婦、二人連れの日本人女性、日本人の4人家族と私達の10人と外人の案内人二人。モーターボートに乗りこみ、20分ほど沖合に行き、左右二人一組の背中にパラシュートを付けて上空に浮き上がるわけです。
最初、若い女性二人組が飛び上がり、次が外人夫婦ペア、皆、簡単そうで何とかなりそうって感じに。いよいよ私達の番に、救命道具の背にパラシュートを付け、あっという間に90メートル
上空では、風もなくほんとに青い海を真下に最高の眺め。最後は下半身ドボンしてもらい。飛んでる時間は10分か15分でしょうか。まったく怖くもなく最高のひとときでした。
ボートでは外人二人が英語で説明してくれましたが、ほとんど英語できない私でも理解できる程度、写真も撮ってくれて(30ドル)
是非、次回は150メートルの長さでパラセイリングしたいと思います。

Until now, my trips to Hawaii have mainly focused on snorkeling tours and the ocean, but the magnificent Kualoa Ranch was full of mountain attractions. The jeep tour only provides guidance in English, so I was worried due to mixed reviews, but the scenery was beautiful and it was thrilling, allowing me to enjoy it even without fully understanding English. For those who haven't been yet, you might discover something new in Hawaii. Horseback riding and ATV tours were also popular.
Options can be selected on the bus on the day of the tour, but there are some options that cannot be chosen on Sundays and holidays, so I think it's important to be aware of that.

First, we watched an explanation video about underwater scooters in an office-like area on the second floor, used the restroom, and those who weren't wearing swimsuits changed. At this point, two different colored paper tapes were wrapped around our wrists.
Everyone boarded the boat, but some groups were given marine shoes (probably based on the color of the paper tape) and were told to leave their belongings on the boat and get off because they would go to the sandbar on a different boat first. The boat to the sandbar went quite fast, which was a bit scary but fun! However, even though it was called a sandbar, the seawater was up to our chests, and when the waves got a bit high, we were splashed over our heads. A female staff member who spoke Japanese taught us how to use the stand-up paddle. You can ride with two people. She said that if you have a smartphone in a waterproof case, she would take pictures for you, and she took a lot of photos. We took turns enjoying it in groups of four, but while others were taking their turns, there wasn't much to do, so I thought it would be nice to have a float. The female staff members were always on floats, though (laughs).
After a while, the first boat we boarded returned, and we joined everyone else to move a bit offshore to use the underwater scooters. The moment we entered the helmet part of the scooter, we submerged in the sea. I didn't operate the scooter at all. When I placed my hands on the handlebars, the diver gestured for me to remove them a few times, and he operated the handlebars himself.
There was a sea turtle, and he pulled the scooter close to it! The scooter had food attached, and when I waved the net with the food, fish came to eat, and I was able to take many pictures from inside the helmet. The water was truly a beautiful blue, and I was moved by it.
While the next person was using the underwater scooter, we borrowed snorkeling gear and enjoyed it, but when we returned to the boat after the scooter, many people said they were cold, and some chose not to snorkel. Snacks and water were available for unlimited consumption, and everyone ate quite a bit. We could decide whether to purchase the photos taken by the diver after seeing them. I didn't purchase either the photos or the videos.
We had time to change and use the restroom until we got on the return vehicle. There were no towels laid on the seats, and since my swimsuit was still a bit wet, I placed a towel I used to dry off on the seat before sitting down.
最初に2階の事務所のようなところで水中スクーターの説明ビデオを見たりトイレに行ったり水着を着てない人は着替えたりしました。ここで色の違う紙テープのようなもの2本が手首に巻かれます。
1度みんな船に乗りましたが、何組かはマリンシューズを渡されて(多分紙テープの色によって)先に別のボートでサンドバーに行くから荷物を置いて船からおりて、と言われました。サンドバーへ行くボートは結構スピードを出して少し怖かったですが楽しかったです!しかしサンドバーといっても海水は胸まであり、少し高い波がくると頭からかぶります。女性の日本語が話せるスタッフがスタンドアップパドルのやり方を教えてくれます。2人で乗ることもできます。防水ケースに入れたスマホを持っていると写真撮ってあげるよ!と言ってくれてたくさん撮ってくれました。4組で交代交代に楽しみましたが他の方がやっている間は特にすることがなく海の中で立っているだけなので浮輪があればいいなと思いました。女性スタッフだけは常に浮輪にのってましたが(笑)
しばらくすると最初に乗った船が来てしてみなさんと合流して少し沖へ移動し水中スクーターをします。スクーターのヘルメット部分に入る瞬間は海に潜ります。 スクーターの操作は全くしていません。ハンドルに手を置いていると手をどけろみたいなジェスチャーを何回かされダイバーがハンドルを操作してなにかしてました。
ウミガメがいたのですぐ近くまでスクーターを引っ張って行ってくれました!スクーターには餌が付いていてその餌の網を振ると魚が食べに来てヘルメットの中から写真をたくさん撮れました。海の中は本当にきれいな青色で感動しました。
シュノーケリングは次の人が水中スクーターをしている間に勝手に道具を借り楽しむ感じでしたが水中スクーターを終えて船に戻ると寒いと言っている人が多くシュノーケリングはやらない人もいました。スナック菓子とお水は食べ飲み放題でみなさん結構食べてました。ダイバーが撮ってくれた写真は見てから購入するか決めれます。動画は見てませんが私はどちらも購入しませんでした。
帰りの車に乗るまで着替えたりトイレに行く時間がありました。座席にタオルなどは敷かれておらず、まだ少し水着が濡れていたので体をふいたタオルを敷いて座りました。

The car in the photo picks you up, but then you switch to a big bus at a different hotel. The scenery on the way is quite beautiful, and I joined the tour because I wanted to swim with dolphins. You can really swim with them, just a little bit... There are about five people at a time, so it's a bit of a conveyor-belt experience interacting with the dolphins, which takes time because there are many pickups. It might be better to go by rental car. I felt that the dolphin shows in Japan are more impressive. You can also eat inside the park, but don't expect too much; it's just average. There aren't many attractions in the park, and taking photos with the parrots is also charged.
写真の車がお迎えし、っと思いきや、違うホテルででかいバスに乗り換えて行きます。行きの景色はなかなかきれいな景色、イルカとも泳ぎたくてツアーに参加しました。ホントに泳げます 少しですが・・・ 人数が5人ずつくらいで、流れ作業的なイルカとの触れ合い 笑い ピックアップも沢山いるので時間かかります。レンタカーで行くのがお勧めかも~ 日本のイルカShowの方が凄いと感じました。笑 園内での食事もできますが期待しないでください。普通です。園内のアトラクションはけしてたくさんはありません、オウムと写真撮るのも有料ですので・・・

My first trip to Hawaii!!
About two days before my departure, I saw this tour featured on a stylish program about Hawaii, so I made a reservation. I participated with my boyfriend.
**About the Pickup**
Since our hotel was included as a pickup point for the tour, it was convenient to board the bus right from the front entrance of the hotel. Before the bus arrived, a cheerful female staff member who spoke Japanese came to inform us that the bus was slightly delayed due to traffic, which made me feel at ease.
**On the Bus**
During the ride, the lively staff member shared interesting information about the geography and climate of Oahu, snorkeling precautions, and stories about dolphins and sea turtles, which kept us entertained!
**Arrival at the Port**
Once we arrived at the port, we were given ample time to use the restroom.
**Boarding & the Main Event: Dolphins and Sea Turtles**
We headed to a beautiful sea that felt like nature, quite different from the urban Waikiki Beach! We went quite far out. The boat was designed to minimize rocking, so no one experienced seasickness. The cobalt blue color of the sea is unforgettable. After a while, we spotted dolphins jumping around. I was surprised at how easily we could see them! Then, we put on our gear and dove into the water!! We quickly saw a pod of dolphins. I even heard the dolphins making sounds like "quee-quee"!
We returned to the boat, changed locations, and dove again. I was glad to meet the dolphins both times! One piece of advice: when instructed to enter the water, even if you feel a bit scared, it's better to get in as quickly as possible to increase your chances of seeing the dolphins. Some people who hesitated on the boat missed seeing the dolphins when they finally got in. I jumped in quickly and had a great encounter with the dolphins!
Back on the boat, we headed to the spot where the sea turtles were! Snorkeling was so much fun. I saw colorful fish and coral. Then, we were told there was a sea turtle nearby! As I swam over, there was the sea turtle! Watching it felt like time stood still; it was a magical experience.
The reason this tour refers to dolphins as "teachers" and sea turtles as "professors" will become clear once you participate. It truly felt mystical, and I was filled with a sense of awe, as if my heart was being seen through.
**Marine Sports**
I tried stand-up paddleboarding. It was a short time due to the rotation, but I enjoyed it!
**Food**
On the boat, we were provided with pineapple, juice, snacks, and cheeseburgers. The cheeseburger was slightly warm and delicious! It felt very accommodating.
**Atmosphere on the Boat**
We were given lyric sheets and sang traditional Hawaiian songs and danced. All the staff were cheerful, and it was a lot of fun!
**Return**
When disembarking, tipping was not required. We were also taken back to our hotel by bus, just like on the way there, which was convenient.
**Overall**
For this experience and this price, it was a bargain!! The consideration for the tour guests was also great!
Mahalo~
人生初のハワイ旅行!!
出国日の2日ほど前に、おしゃれイズムのハワイ特集で、こちらのツアーが取り上げられていたこともあり、予約しました。彼氏と2人で参加しました。
〈ピックアップに関して〉
滞在先ホテルが、ツアーのピックアップ地点に含まれていたので、ホテルの正面玄関からバスに乗れて便利でした。バスが来る前に、日本語の話せる元気ハツラツな女性スタッフが、徒歩で来てくれて、バスが渋滞で少し遅れていることなどを伝えてくださり、安心しました。
〈バス内〉
車中では、先ほどの元気なお姉さんが、オアフ島の地理・気候の話や、シュノーケリングにおける注意事項、イルカやウミガメの話など、タメになるお話をしてくれたおかげで退屈しませんでした!
〈港に到着〉
港に着いたら、トイレに行くための充分な時間が与えられました。
〈乗船&本題のイルカ・ウミガメ〉
都会のワイキキビーチとはまた違った雰囲気の、ローカルな、大自然を感じるきれいな海へ!
かなり沖のほうまで行きました。船はあまり揺れない構造になっているそうで、船酔いしている方はいませんでした。
コバルトブルーというんでしょうか…あの美しい海の色は忘れられません。
沖に出てしばらくすると、イルカ先生たちがピョンピョンしていらっしゃるのが見られました。
イルカって、こんなに簡単に見られるものなのかと、驚きました!
そして、道具をつけて、海へダイブ!!
すぐに群れを見ることができました。
私は、「キュイーン、キュイーン」というイルカ先生の声も聴くことができました!
一度船に戻り、場所を変えてもう一度潜りました。
2回ともしっかりイルカ先生に会えてよかったです!
★ここで一つ、注意なのですが、海へ入る指示がでたら、多少の恐怖感があっても、ためらわずになるべく早く海へ入ったほうが、イルカ先生に会うチャンスが増えると思います。
船上で怖がってモタモタしてしまった人の中には、海に入ったときにはイルカ先生が逃げてしまっていて見られなかった、という人たちがいたようです。
私はサッと入ったので、イルカ先生にばっちり会えました!
再び船に戻り、次はウミガメ大教授のいらっしゃるスポットへ!
とにかく、シュノーケリングが、楽しい。きれいな色のお魚や、サンゴを見ました。
すると、ウミガメがいるとの指示が!
そちらのほうに泳いでいくと、ウミガメ大教授がいらっしゃいました!
見ている間は、時が止まっているような、不思議な感覚がしました。
こちらのツアーで、イルカを「先生」、ウミガメを「大教授」と呼んでいる理由は、参加すればわかると思います。本当に、神秘的で、心を見透かされているような、畏敬の念がわきました。
〈マリンスポーツ〉
私はスタンダップ・パドルに挑戦しました。交代制なので、短時間ですが、楽しめました!
〈食べ物〉
船上では、パイナップルやジュース、スナック、チーズバーガーなどが支給されました。
チーズバーガーは、ほんのりあったかく、おいしかったです!
至れり尽くせり、という感じでした。
〈船上の雰囲気〉
歌詞カードが配られ、ハワイの伝統的な歌や踊りをしました。どのスタッフも陽気で、とても楽しかったです!
〈帰り〉
船を降りる際、チップは不要でした。
帰りも、行きと同じように滞在先ホテルまでバスで送ってもらったので、楽でした。
〈総合的に〉
この内容で、この値段は、安い!!
ツアー客への気遣いもよかったです!
マハロ〜

This was arguably one of the best things we did this trip!! Our crew was AMAZING! So friendly, patient and helpful. I can't say enough good things. I've never snorkeled before, I'm not a strong swimmer so I kind of panicked when I was just our in open water even with the group. The crew member leading us to Turtle Canyon saw me struggling, came over and swam me there where I became just mesmerized by how close we were to the fish & turtles I calmed down enough to actually snorkel! She also took my camera down and got crazy awesome pictures. Food was great, drinks were delicious, the sail was beautiful. I cannot say enough good things about this excursion. Worth every penny! Cannot wait to snorkel again!

It was an expensive course, but I had a great time interacting with the dolphins. However, other dolphin shows might have a higher quality in Japan. The photos and DVDs are also pricey. It might be unavoidable for the sake of the dolphins.
お高いコースでしたが、イルカにふれあい、とても楽しかったです。ただ、他のイルカショーなどは日本のクオリティのほうが高いかもしれません。写真やDVDもお高いです。イルカのためにはしょうがないかもしれません。

Our Transportation to Diamond Head was waiting for us as we exited the hotel about 5 minutes early. He was very nice and professional. He gave us good information about Diamond Head's history and the hiking trail. He returned, as promised, to pick us up and take us to Manoa Falls. Again he was very interesting and gave us info about the rain forest and the hike. Providing water and a hiking pole was very appreciated, and helpful. The company was very reliable, friendly and informative. We are in our 60's and were able to do both hikes in the same day.
