It was our first time in Hawaii, and although we were not good at English, the guide and the driver were both really nice! We enjoyed parasailing even more than we expected! We could see so many beautiful views in the sky and feel the Hawaiian breeze! They took a lot of photos for us! It truly became a wonderful memory!

On May 30th, I tried ziplining, which I had been interested in for a while during the Hawaiian holiday. It was refreshing! The views were amazing! As a middle-aged couple at 49, we were as excited as kids! The apple bananas at the water station were delicious. Although no one spoke Japanese, we had a fantastic time. If the price were a bit lower...

It's been almost a week and I still can't get over it! Thank you so much VELTRA and Hawaiian Parasail for accommodating me and my family to parasail with you on Memorial Day! I know it was a holiday and I expected it to be extremely busy and I can't thank you enough that you were still able to get us in! Your staff were very friendly, just wonderful people!!
This was a surprise for my two daughters and we all had a blast! Nice weather, and fantaaaaaaaaastic view!!! Too bad husband and my son could not join us (my son is only 4) but I'll be sure to have them experience this as well when my son is old enough.
The captains are amazing! Kevin and Russell were so much fun, they made our day very relaxing and comfortable, great photographers too! The pictures came out really nice so thank you for capturing the moment we were up in the air, a memory that we will keep forever.
Thank you once again for giving us the opportunity to experience this, we enjoyed it very much!

It was great, i got picked up and he drove out to the northshore, showed us around the town and then the activities started. He was very available to pickup after each activity and drop you off where you wanted to go. Waterfall, snorkeling, shrimp truck, beach time & stand up paddle board, it was great. There are other activities to pick from. He even stopped because he saw a sea turtle was sitting on the beach, so we could see it and take pics, it was great!

I took a ride on the Atlantis at the end of the year.
Before boarding, the staff took a photo with Diamond Head in the background. You can purchase that photo as a large print on the way back for $20 or more, and you can also share it for free using a URL. The photo frame was cute, so I recommend it.
Depending on the season, I wasn't able to see sea turtles or notable fish, which was disappointing. However, I enjoyed the underwater guidance from the local guide, whose Japanese was a bit shaky. The repeated phrase "Jinko no San Goshou" and the corny jokes stuck in my head throughout the trip, and I still laugh when I think about it.
Also, while waiting to board the submarine, there were quite a few Japanese people who were feeling seasick. The boat had vomit bags available, but for those who are prone to motion sickness, I think it would be better to take anti-nausea medication or find ways to avoid getting sick.

It was our first time in Hawaii for our honeymoon, and our first time snorkeling as well. I was surprised at how many people participated compared to other activities, but we took a bus to the boat harbor, where we boarded the boat and were entertained by the high-energy crew from that point on.
While cruising towards the sandbar, we looked for sea turtles and managed to catch a glimpse of them a few times. However, since it was just a fleeting moment, I think those who want to fully enjoy sea turtles should consider participating in a tour that focuses on them, like those on the North Shore.
Once we arrived at the sandbar, we took a lot of photos first, and then put on our snorkeling masks and moved to a deeper area to enjoy snorkeling. It had been a while since I swam, but thanks to the life jacket, I was able to focus on and enjoy snorkeling without any worries. There were various types of fish, and even as a first-time snorkeler, I had a great time. If I could wish for anything, it would have been nice to have a bit more time to enjoy snorkeling.
I believe that snorkeling will definitely be an essential activity for our next trip to Hawaii.
ハネムーンでお互い初のハワイで、初のシュノーケリングでした。
他のアクティビティに比べて、想像以上に多くの人達が参加されていたのに最初驚きましたが、ボートハーバーにバスで向かい、そこでボートに乗り、その段階からテンションの高いクルーの方たちに楽しませてもらえました。
サンドバーに向かう間にウミガメを探しながらのクルージングでしたが、何度か一瞬見かけるウミガメを見ることが出来ました。(但し、あくまでも一瞬だったので、ウミガメを十分に堪能されたい方は、このアクティビティではなく、ノースショアの観光のコースなどでウミガメを見ることが出来そうなものに参加されたほうが良いと思います。)
サンドバーに到着したら、そこでまずはひとしきり写真を撮り、その後シュノーケルのマスクなどを付けて、深い場所に移動しシュノーケリングを楽しみました。
随分と水泳も久々でしたが、ライフジャケットのおかげで全く心配なくシュノーケリングに集中して楽しめました。
色々な種類のお魚さんが居て、初めてのシュノーケリングでも十分楽しめました。
欲を言えばもうちょっとシュノーケリングを楽しむ時間があったら良かったなぁと思いました。
次回ハワイに行ったらシュノーケリングはまず欠かせないアクティビティになったと思います。

The sandbar only appears during low tide, and when I went, it was high tide, with the water up to my waist. However, during the sunny moments, both the sea and the scenery were amazing. It rained partway through, and the water got murky, so snorkeling was... But I would love to participate again when it's sunny!
サンドバーは干潮の時間にしか砂浜が現れず、私が行った時には満潮で、水面は腰のあたりまでありました。それでも晴れていた時間帯は海も景色も最高でした。途中に雨が降り、水が濁ったのでシュノーケルは・・。だったのですが、晴れているときにもう一度参加したいです!

We went to Hawaii for our honeymoon, and it was our first time trying horseback riding. I had always wanted to try riding, but I was hesitant to jump into multiple activities for several hours, so I booked just a one-hour horseback riding course.
One of my biggest concerns for this honeymoon was that we chose a course at Kualoa Ranch, which is quite far from Waikiki, and it didn't include transportation, so I wasn't sure how to get there. For those in the same situation, here are some tips:
1. Take the number 55 bus, which runs once an hour from Ala Moana Center. (You can check the bus schedule using the DaBus app.)
2. Get off at KAMEHAMEHA HWY + OPP KUALOA RANCH. (There are several bus stops with KUALOA in the name, so be careful not to get off at the wrong one.)
3. Right in front of you as you get off is the entrance to Kualoa Ranch.
For the return trip, there is a bus stop on the opposite side of the road, so I recommend taking the bus back to Ala Moana Center. It took just a little over an hour by bus from Ala Moana Center.
Finally, when it was time for horseback riding, the horses were prepared for the women first. As my wife got on her horse and waited, her horse was already a bit restless. When I got on my horse next to hers, it seemed that our horses didn't get along and started to fight, which scared my wife and almost made her want to quit. However, after changing her horse, we were able to set off.
After that, both my horse and my wife's horse calmed down, and we enjoyed an hour of riding. (My wife was too nervous to fully enjoy the scenery, though...) Just as I was getting comfortable with riding, the hour was up, and I wished there had been a 90-minute option available.
Kualoa Ranch itself is a beautiful and pleasant place, so I would like to try other activities there next time.
ハネムーンでお互い初めてハワイに行き、初めての乗馬に挑戦でした。
乗馬は1度してみたかったけど、あんまりガッツリ何時間も、いくつものアクティビティにいきなり挑戦するのは気が引けたので、とりあえず乗馬だけ1時間のコースを予約していきました。
実は今回のハネムーンで一番気がかりだったことがこのクアロア牧場で、ワイキキから結構遠い所にあるのに、送迎が付いていないコースを選択したため、そもそもどう行っていいか分かりませんでした。
同じ方は結構居るようなので、参考までに記載しますと、
1.アラモアナ・センターから1時間に1本ペースで出ている55番バスに乗ります。
(バスの時間はDaBusのアプリなどで調べると良いです)
2.KAMEHAMEHA HWY+OPP KUALOA RANCH で降ります。
(手前にKUALOAと付くバス停が何個かあるのでお間違えなく)
3.降りてすぐ目の前にクアロア牧場の入口があります。
帰りも反対車線の所にバス停があるので、そこから乗ってアラモアナ・センターまで帰るのが良いと思います。(バスでアラモアナ・センターから1時間ちょっとでした)
いよいよ乗馬となってまずは、女性から先にお馬さんが用意されて案内されていきました。
嫁さんの馬も用意されて乗っかり待っていると、その状態から既にお馬さんが少し暴れていて、私もお馬さんに乗り隣に着いたら、今度は私の馬と嫁さんの馬の相性が合わないらしく喧嘩しだしてしまい、嫁さんが怖がりリタイアしかけましたが、嫁さんのお馬さんを変更してもらいどうにか出発できました。
その後私のお馬さんも嫁さんのお馬さんもおとなしく1時間の乗馬を楽しむことが出来ました。
(嫁さんは緊張しすぎて景色を楽しむまではいけなかったようですが。。。)
私も乗馬に十分慣れてきたところで1時間の乗馬が終わってしまったので、出来たら90分とかのコースがあったらよかったです。
このクアロア牧場自体がとても綺麗な場所で気持ち良い場所だったので、今度は乗馬以外のものもトライしてみたいと思います。

I booked the one-hour course due to time constraints and a question about whether I would be driving the buggy for two hours.
Driving the buggy might require some getting used to at first, but I don't think it's particularly difficult. Instead of using a throttle, you push a lever located where the throttle is, which acts as the accelerator. Those who are used to motorcycles might feel a bit of discomfort. However, you'll get used to it quickly. I was told we would have a trial run at first, but before I knew it, I was on the main course. This means that very few people probably drop out or are forced to drop out.
If you wear your own sunglasses or regular glasses, it seems you don't need to wear the provided sunglasses. Since we are driving off-road, as long as your eyes are protected, that should be sufficient.
We drive through winding off-road paths and cross streams, going through places like the ones shown in the photos. If you have the time, you can enjoy the scenery while driving. However, since the basic premise is to maintain the formation, if you focus too much on that, you might miss some sights. It would be nice to have some extra driving comfort.
The reason I deducted one star is that compared to the two-hour course, there are fewer places to stop. This is obvious, but (laughs). We just passed by places like the dinosaur footprints and spots that seemed to be used in Top Gun. I had some prior information, so I was able to see those, but my friend who came with me seemed to miss them and looked a bit disappointed.
If you have the stamina and time, and are also interested in the movie world, the two-hour course might be recommended. I wasn't that familiar with it, so I enjoyed the one-hour course.
It's reassuring that the guide is Japanese.
1時間コースと2時間コースがあったので、時間の都合上と、
2時間もバギーを運転するの?という疑問があったので、
1時間コースで予約しました。
バギーの運転は最初はコツがいるかもしれませんが、
特に難しいものではないと思います。
スロットルではなく、スロットルのところについているレバーを押すとアクセルという感じです。バイクとかで慣れている人は少し違和感があるかもしれないですね。
でも、すぐ慣れます。最初お試しで走るって言われたんですが、
気付けば本コースに入ってたようです。
つまりは基本ドロップアウトする人・させられる人はほとんどいないんでしょうね。
自前のサングラスや普通のメガネをしていれば、
用意されたサングラスはしなくていいようです。
とりあえず、オフロードを走るので、目が保護されてればいいようなので。
オフロードをくねくね走り、小川も超えて、
写真にもあるようなところを走ります。余裕があれば景色を十分堪能しながら走れます。
ただ、基本隊列を乱さず走ることが前提なので、そこに意識集中していると、
見逃すこともあるかも。運転に余裕があるといいですよね。
ただ、星を一つ減らしたのは、
2時間コースとくらべて、立ち寄れる場所が少ないこと。
当たり前ですが(笑)
途中恐竜の足あとのところや、トップガン?で使われたようなとことか?
完全に横を通り過ぎただけです。
自分はある程度事前情報があったので、それを見れたのですが、
一緒に来ていた友人は気づかずスルーしたみたいで、少し残念そうでした。
体力と時間があって、映画の世界にも興味が深いようなら、
2時間コースがおすすめかもしれないですね。
俺はそこまで詳しくなかったので、1時間で楽しめました。
ガイドも日本人の方が案内してくれるので、安心です。

I was able to see both dolphins and sea turtles clearly with my own eyes! I was especially thrilled to see the sea turtles up close and even swim with them. I also encountered a pod of dolphins several times, but they were too fast for me to get close… However, I could always hear their "kyu kyu" sounds, which was very soothing even when I got tired from swimming. I definitely want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii.

The zipline at Kualoa Ranch is a great option. One of the advantages of the Keana Farm is that you can choose the zipline alone, which is not possible at Kualoa, and it includes round-trip transportation. At Kualoa, you can opt for round-trip transportation if you select other tours like the buggy, but if you choose the zipline alone, transportation is not included, making it difficult to get there.
You will zipline seven times with a group of ten people and three local foreign guides over about three hours. The tour description mentions a buggy ride (1.5 hours), but this does not refer to a self-driven buggy like at Kualoa, nor is it actually 1.5 hours; it refers to about a 20-minute buggy ride between the first and second ziplines.
While it seems like snacks are included, it's better to assume there will be almost none. The ziplining itself is very enjoyable, and the foreign guides are cheerful and entertaining. They are also very thorough about safety, which gives a sense of reassurance that the staff is well-trained.
Perhaps because it’s a tour for foreigners, the pickup vehicle did not arrive at the scheduled time (laughs). It takes about an hour and a half to get to Keana Farm from Waikiki, which felt very far. It would be good to have warm clothing to endure the cold car interior. No Japanese is spoken at all. I would like to go again.
クアロア牧場でもできるジップライン。こちらのケアナファームの良い点はクアロアでは不可のジップライン単独の選択+往復送迎があること。クアロアの場合、バギーなどの他のツアーを併せて選択すると往復送迎可能だが、ジップライン単独で選択すると往復送迎が付いていないので行きづらい。
10人1組に3人の現地外国人ガイドでジップラインを7本、約3時間かけてやります。
ツアー説明文にバギー(1.5時間)と書いてありますが、これはクアロアのような自分で運転するバギーでもなければ、1.5時間でもなく、1本目と2本目のジップライン間の移動のための20分ぐらいのバギー移動のことを指します。
軽食がついているかのような説明がありますが、ほぼないと考えておいた方が良いです。
ジップライン自体は非常に楽しく、また外国人ガイドも非常に陽気で面白いです。またとにかく徹底して安全に配慮されていますので、スタッフの教育がなされている感があり安心できます。
外国人用のツアーだからかもしれませんが、ピックアップの時間に送迎車は来ません((笑))
ケアナファームまでワイキキから1時間半。非常に遠いと感じました。
冷蔵庫のように冷えた車内での移動に耐えられる防寒着があると良いです。
日本語は全く通じません。

The day after arriving in Hawaii, I had a parasailing reservation for 8 AM, so I was excitedly waiting at the designated hotel around 7 AM. The pickup time was 7:10, but even after 5 minutes and then 10 minutes, no one showed up. The reservation details mentioned to call the local office if no one arrived after 10 minutes, but the next item stated that the local office opened at 7:30. Even after that time passed, no one came, and eventually, when the hotel front desk called xtremeparasail, they said there was no reservation for 8 AM that day. My excitement about being in Hawaii vanished, and I felt down, wondering who was lying. The only availability was the day before I was set to leave, so I had them make a reservation for that day at the front desk. The parasailing experience itself was amazing, but I wish the local office had communicated more effectively.
ハワイについた翌日に8時からのパラセーリングに予約していたので 指定ホテルで ウキウキドキドキしながら 7時ころから 待ってました。ピックアップ時間は7時10分でしたが 5分たっても10分たってもきません。予約の詳細には10分たってもこなかったら 現地事務所に電話するように書いてありましたが その次の項目に現地事務所の開始時間は7時半からと書いてありました。半になってもこなくて結局宿泊ホテルのホテルのフロントから xtremeparasailにかけてもらうと その日の8時からの予約は入ってなかったとのこと。ハワイついて ウキウキの気持ちはふっとびました、 どちらが嘘ついてると暗い気持ちでした。帰る前日しかあいてなく フロントでその日に予約いれてもらいました。パラセーリング自体は最高でした、が 現地事務所ともう少ししっかりやりとりして欲しいと思いました。

I had always dreamed of swimming in a sea with dolphins, so I decided to enroll in Dolphin University, which offers many activities.
The meeting time was early, just past 6 AM, and while I felt a bit sleepy, I was excited.
On the bus, the Japanese staff provided explanations in Japanese about safety precautions in case of emergencies and how to use the snorkeling masks, which was reassuring.
I also learned how to deal with seasickness, and then we set sail! The sea breeze was cold during the ride, so I recommend bringing a jacket. Also, since the boat gets quite wet, it's essential to either bring a bag that can get wet or waterproof gear.
The sea was truly beautiful, with incredibly high visibility underwater! We set off on the boat and performed a ceremony to pray for the safety of E Ho Mai, releasing plumeria flowers into the sea. It was a blessed day with perfect weather. We encountered a lot of dolphins unexpectedly. I had heard that seeing wild dolphins depends on luck, but I was fortunate. I am grateful for such a wonderful day, and I even got to see a sea turtle.
Snorkeling was thrilling as I saw many beautiful fish.
The staff entertained us by diving and making bubble rings. On the way back to the boat harbor, we enjoyed hamburgers, snacks, and drinks. It seemed that the equipment was malfunctioning that day, so we didn't have hula, but it was still very fulfilling.
I received a bag as a substitute for a diploma and headed home. It was truly a fun time. Ahalo!

The 8:00 pickup was delayed, so when I called, they answered in English. The voucher stated that both English and Japanese support were available, but when I asked for a Japanese speaker, I was told there wasn't one. After waiting for a while, I was picked up, but upon arriving at the information center, I was told, "Let's go on the boat!" within a minute, without any instructions on how to operate the Sea Bob. I was left feeling anxious and confused.
The weather was rainy and extremely cold, and despite the voucher stating that warm coffee and tea would be provided, we were given ice-cold water. While the weather is no one's fault, it was freezing, and the pickup vehicle had the air conditioning on full blast, making me shiver the entire time.
Since I was the first to finish, I had to wait for the last group to finish while enduring terrible boat swaying. I was told that snorkeling was an option, but that was the least of my concerns. Although it was stated that we would have 15 minutes on the Sea Bob, it was less than 10 minutes.
I believe it was a valuable experience, and the underwater scenery was beautiful, and I even saw a sea turtle. However, since the experience was heavily affected by the weather, I discussed with other Japanese participants that the price was too high for what we received, especially considering the additional cost for photos.
8:00ピックアップが遅れたので電話をすると英語で出ました。バウチャーには英語、日本語対応と書いてありJapanese speaker pleaseと言ったところいないと言われた。
しばらく待ってピックアップされたが案内所について1分でさあ、船で行こう!とシーボブについての操作方法をなにも聞かされていないのにも関わらず君たち1番に行ってと言われて何もわからず不安しかなかった。
天気は雨でものすごく寒かったしこちらもバウチャーに暖かいコーヒー紅茶用意してあると書かれていたにも関わらずキンキンに冷えた水。
天気はだれのせいでもないのだが極寒で、ピックアップの車も冷房がすごく、終始震えていました。
1番に終わったのでその後最後の方々が終わるまで酷い船揺れの中ひたすら待っていた。

シーボブも15分回れると書いてあったにもかかわらず10分もなかった。
貴重な体験を出来たと思うし海の中は綺麗で海亀も会えました。
しかし天気に左右されまくったので写真代別でこの値段は高すぎると同じ日本人参加者と話していました。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide you with satisfactory service.
Regarding the delay in pickup, there may be slight delays due to traffic conditions, but I understand that it must have been concerning for you when no one arrived despite waiting as instructed. Additionally, I apologize for the inconvenience caused by the outdated information regarding the language display and the included items (warm coffee and tea) from the local operating company. To prevent similar issues in the future, we have promptly corrected the information.
Furthermore, I have confirmed with the local operating company regarding the experience time for the sea bob, and they reported that the usual experience lasts for 15 minutes, and they had allocated the same amount of time on the day of your tour. I hope you can understand this.
We take your feedback seriously and will work together with the operating company to further improve our services in the future.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback despite your busy schedule.

It was a great time. It got extremely hot. After we asked the waiter to open one of the windows he opened ours which helped a lot other then everyone came to our window to take pictures because it was the only window ope. Food was amazing tho and the service was awesome. I just think they should keep all the windows open. I would recommend this dinner to everyone

First time doing this. Thoroughly enjoyed it between the dolphins and turtle. I found a turtle by my lonesome, shared with everyone, but I guess there was more action somewhere else. I swam with the turtle as it slowly rose up to surface to get a breathe of air that took no more than one second. Then it went on its way. I don't have pictures of that experience to share, but I did have a go pro recording the whole time. So I have that to take with me the rest of my life.
Needs to said, there is a catch. If you want more interaction with mammal sea life, there is another activity that gets your first hand, up close and personal. However you are in a control environment. Whereas this activity is in the ocean; wildlife, so more than dolphins and turtles to experience(depending on the time of year too).
If I am allowed to edit this post, and also allow to post a hyperlink to a YouTube video, I will post that turtle swim.

This tour is a great way to see and experience the North Shore from the land and in the water. Our tour guide (HC) knew his way around the island like nobody's business. He went the extra mile to ensure we had a great time. Plenty of time for snorkeling, bike riding, checking out waterfalls, SUP or kayaking AND SHOPPING! I highly recommend!

The crew (Captain Ryan, Philippe, and Erica) were awesome! Super FUN tribe of professionals. The excursion itself was amazing, even for a short trip to see the turtles. I was very impressed with how the crew worked with people who weren't strong swimmers-- very gentle and encouraging. An overall awesome excursion-- I highly recommend!

Swimming with dolphins in the ocean has always been my dream, so I enrolled in a university with many activities after debating between middle school and university. The meeting time is early at 6 AM. I've heard that dolphins are still sleepy at that time!
They say Hawaiians are laid-back with time, but the tour bus is punctual, so I think it's best to gather at least 10 minutes before the meeting time. On the bus, we watch an English DVD about safety precautions and how to use the snorkeling mask, but we receive explanations in Japanese later, which is reassuring.
Follow the rules and enjoy the activities! For ocean activities, I recommend wearing a jacket because it can get chilly with the sea breeze while moving on the boat. Also, the boat can get wet, so bring a bag that you don’t mind getting wet or waterproof gear.
The coastline to Waianae is truly beautiful, and the water is very clear! We set off on the boat and performed a ceremony for safety, offering plumeria flowers to the sea. It was a blessed day with perfect weather. We saw so many dolphins on our second try. After being in the water for a while, we watched excited dolphins swimming around us repeatedly. Since they are wild dolphins, it’s all about luck. I’m grateful for such a fortunate day, and we even saw a turtle.
While snorkeling, I saw many beautiful fish. I took off my life jacket and swam among the fish! The staff dove in and made bubble rings, adding to the excitement. I chose this university because of the long duration and the opportunity to do SUP. I managed to stand up!
On the way back to the boat harbor, we had hamburgers and drinks. It seemed like the equipment was having some issues that day, but there was still hula. Upon arriving at the port, we wanted to do some sightseeing on the west coast, so we disbanded locally. We received eco-bags as a substitute for diplomas and, with permission, disbanded locally. After that, we took The Bus to Mermaid Cave.
The staff advised us to be careful due to safety concerns. Thank you for your consideration! This university is the best! I would love to participate again when I come back to Hawaii. It was the best activity I participated in! Mahalo!
イルカのいる海で泳ぐのが夢でしたので、中学と大学迷ってアクティビティが多い大学に入学。
集合時間が6時と早いです。イルカが寝ぼけてるうちに、と何かで聞いたことがあります!
Hawaiianは時間にルーズだと言いますが、ツアーバスは時間厳守で迎えに来て頂けるので、集合時間10分前には集まっていた方が良いと思います。
バスの中では英語のDVDで非常時の際の注意事項や、シュノーケルマスクの使い方などを見ますが、後から日本語で説明を受けるので安心です。
ルールを守って楽しくアクティビティ!
海のアクティビティは船移動中海風が寒いので上着をオススメ!後は、船の中は水びたしになるので、濡れてもいいバックでいくか、防水グッズをお忘れなく。
Waianaeまでの海岸線は本当にキレイです。海の中も透明度が高い!ボートで出発してE Ho Maiの安全を祈る儀式でプルメリアを海に。
この日は本当に恵まれた日で、天気は最高。
イルカも2回目のトライにはたーくさん。しばらく海に入って何回も私たちの下を泳いでいくのを見て、興奮したイルカ達が回りを何回もグルグル泳いでいてくれました。
野生のイルカなのでその辺は運次第。
恵まれた日で感謝です。カメまで見れました。
シュノーケルはたくさんのキレイな魚が見れました。
ライフジャケットを脱いで潜って魚の中を泳ぐ!
スタッフさんが潜ってバブルリング作って見せてくれたりと、盛り上げてくれます。
大学を選んだのは時間が長いのと、SUPができるから。
なんとか立てました!
ボートハーバーに戻る間にハンバーガーとドリンク頂き、この日は機械の調子が悪かったようですがフラがあります。
港につき、私たちは西海岸観光がしたかったので現地解散。卒業証書かわりのエコバッグを頂いて、許可を得た上で私たちだけ現地解散。その後THe BusでMermaid Cave に。
スタッフの方には治安が悪いので気をつけるようによく言われました。
お気遣いありがとうございました!
大学最高!またハワイに来た際は参加したいです。
参加したアクティビティで1番でした!Mahalo!
Thank you for participating this time! Also, thank you for providing various advice and suggestions! I believe this will be helpful for those who will join the tour or are considering it. We were blessed with good weather, and you got to meet many dolphins. I hope you will cherish these memories of your trip to Hawaii even after returning to Japan. We look forward to your next participation. Mahalo!
この度はご参加頂きましてありがとうございました!また色々とアドバイス等も書いて頂きありがとうございました!これからツアーにご参加頂く方や、検討して頂いている方の参考になるかと思います。お天気にも恵まれ、たくさんのイルカたちに会え、ハワイ旅行の思い出として日本に帰られた後も是非思い出して頂きたいと思います。またのご参加をお待ちしております。Mahalo!

Great tour! If you're only doing the one activity at the ranch, be sure to check what time your activity starts and finishes, you might want to catch the bus or drive yourself. saves you waiting around for hours for the first shuttle bus back to Waikiki.
The actual tour itself was really fun and well run! I would highly recommend

Under clear skies, we headed out to Waikiki with 10 participants and 2 staff members. It was supposed to be a fun aerial walk with lively foreigners and efficient staff, but I ended up feeling seasick. I wanted to enjoy it longer, so I chose the 150m option, but I regretted it... I asked to be brought down quickly. The atmosphere was very nice, though.
快晴の中、参加者10人と2人のスタッフでワイキキ沖へ。
のりのりの外人さんとテキパキしたスタッフで楽しい空中散歩のはずが、船酔いで大変でした。せっかくなので長く楽しみたいと150mにしましたが後悔・・・・早くおろして貰いました。
雰囲気はとても良かったです。
