This cruise was so much fun! We really enjoyed the crablegs, and the Mai Tai's are the best in Waikiki! They really get you involved by getting you up to dance and sing! It was my wedding night, so they sang the Hawaiian Wedding Song to me and my new hubby, and the next day was my birthday so they also sang Happy Birthday to me! It was a great, fun, romantic activity, and I would definitely do it again!

After departing by boat, we encountered dolphins almost immediately (around 20 minutes in?), and everyone hurriedly jumped into the sea. We put on floating devices like life jackets and jumped into the water, but it might be a bit tough for those who can't swim.
While battling seasickness from the boat and the waves after entering the water, we swam close to the dolphins several times (for about 30 minutes?), which was very hard, but it was incredibly moving to meet the dolphins in the sea. In my case, I was a bit far away, so unfortunately, I couldn't quite feel like I was swimming with them.
After that, we moved by boat to another spot to see sea turtles. We were able to swim close enough to touch the sea turtles if we reached out, making it a very satisfying tour.
Finally, I wanted to mention some highlights of this tour for those who are unsure about which tour to choose:
- Encountering dolphins and turtles
- Availability of restrooms
- Receiving a group photo for free (two photos via email)
- Being able to rent a wetsuit ($5)
- Having Japanese staff present
- All staff members were enthusiastic and supportive of the participants.
船で出発後、すぐに(20分ぐらい?)イルカと遭遇し、みんなあわてて海へ飛び込みました。
ライフジャケットのような水に浮くものを装着して海の中に飛び込みますが、泳げない人はちょっと厳しいかもしれません。。。
船上での酔いと海に入ってからの波での酔いと戦いながら、イルカの近くまで何度も泳いだので(30分ぐらい?)とてもハードでしたが、イルカと海の中で会えて、とても感動しました。
私の場合は少し距離があったので、残念ながら一緒に泳いだ感覚にはなれませんでしたが。。。
その後、別のポイントまで船で移動しウミガメを見に行きました。
ウミガメとは手を伸ばせば触れるぐらい近くを泳ぐことができ、大満足なツアーでした^^
最後に、このツアーは下記点がよかったです。どのツアーにしようか迷っている方に参考になればと思い記述します。
・イルカ・カメに出会えたこと
・トイレがあること
・集合写真を無料で頂けたこと(メールで2枚)
・ウエットスーツを借りれたこと($5)
・日本人スタッフがいたこと
・スタッフ全員が、参加者を盛り上げてくださったこと

This is a tour that you can only experience here!! The location is on the North Shore, so it’s a bit far, but I definitely recommend participating. It’s very safe and you can join with peace of mind.
I signed up for the tour without transportation and met at the location because I had a rental car to enjoy the North Shore afterward. Since you can only get to the North Shore by car, I recommend going with a rental car.
The location is at the port next to Alii Beach, where there is a sign. There’s no one around, and it can be a bit difficult to find, so I recommend arriving early.
You will travel to a cage anchored offshore on a mysterious boat called "Dangerous Boat." About eight people will enter the cage.
You can see sharks from the boat, but once you’re in the cage, several sharks measuring 3 to 5 meters swim around you. When you throw food from the boat, you can see their fierce side, which is very exciting. It lasts about 20 minutes, but it was a lot of fun.
However, please note that Japanese is not spoken. After getting off the boat, there are showers at the nearby Alii Beach, so it’s better to park your rental car at Alii Beach! If you plan to go to the North Shore, I highly recommend it.
ここでしか体験できないツアーです!!場所がノースショアなので遠いのですが是非参加されることをお勧めします。とても安全で安心して参加できます。
私は、送迎なしの現地集合で申し込みました。それは終わったあとはノースショアを楽しむ為、レンタカーを用意していたからです。ノースショアは車でないと行けないのでレンタカーで行かれたほがお勧めです。
場所は。アリイビーチの隣の港で看板が立っています。誰もいませんし、ちょっとわかりにくいので早めに行かれることをお勧めします。
”危ない号”という不思議な船で沖合に係留してあるケージまで移動します。
大体8人くらいでケージに入ります。
船の上からでもシャークの姿が見えますが、ケージの中に入ると目の前を3~5mのシャークが数匹ケージの周りを泳いでいます。船の上から餌を投入すると獰猛な一面が見れて大興奮します。20分程度で終わりますがとても楽しかったです。
但し、日本語が通じませんのでご注意ください。船から上がったらシャワーは隣のアリイビーチにありますので、レンタカーはアリイビーチに停めたほうがいいでしょう!ノースショアに行く予定があれば是非お勧めします。

It's a popular tour. You arrive at the port, which is about an hour away by bus from Waikiki. Everyone was Japanese... especially the older ladies, who were quite noisy and sat in other people's seats without asking, and used beach towels without permission, which was the worst.
Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, so we couldn't see the beautiful ocean. The sandbar was shallow, about knee-deep, and there were no fish swimming around. While you can indeed see sea turtles, it's only from the boat.
At the snorkeling point, there are fish, but not many. It felt like there were few beautiful fish as well...
Overall, it was neither good nor bad, but considering the cost, it was a bit disappointing.
人気のツアーです。ワイキキからバスで一時間くらいで出港する港に到着します。全員が日本人でした・・・特におばさん達が五月蝿くて勝ってに人の席などに座ったり、バスタオルをかってに使ったり最悪でした。
それにあいにくの曇り空でキレイな海は見られませんでした。サンドバーは膝下くらいの浅瀬で何の魚も泳いでいません。確かにウミガメに会えますが船の上から眺めるだけです。
シュノーケリングポイントには、魚はいますが少ないですね。キレイな魚も少ない気がしました・・・
全体的にみると可も不可もありませんが、コストの割にはいまいちでした。

I thought I might not be able to encounter wild dolphins, but I was able to see a large number of them! It was incredibly moving! I am very satisfied to have had such a precious experience! The staff also seemed very dedicated to showing us as many dolphins as possible.
However, I was a bit disappointed with the hamburgers on the boat. The photos on the website show them being grilled on board, but in reality, they just handed out pre-made ones. Well, I guess it's to allow more time for enjoying the ocean, but that was a bit disappointing.
Even so, this optional tour was fantastic! I would love to participate again the next time I visit Oahu!
野生のイルカ、出会えないかもしれないなぁーと思っていましたが、大量に遭遇することが出来ました!!
大感動!このような貴重な体験ができ大満足です!
スタッフの方々も、よりたくさんのイルカを見せようと一生懸命なのが伝わってきました。
ただちょっと残念なのが、船上でのハンバーガー。
HP上での写真では、船上で焼いているのですが実際はすでに出来上がっているモノを配るだけ。
まぁ、海で遊ぶ時間をたくさん儲けるためなのでしょうが、それがちょっと残念でした。
それを差し引いても、このオプショナルツアーは最高! 次回、オアフ島へ行く際はまた参加したいと思います♪

The hotel pick-up was at 6:00, so I rubbed my sleepy eyes and headed to the meeting point. They asked about the hotel location in advance, so they came close to the hotel.
The staff were very kind and high-energy! I was worried about feeling lonely since I was participating alone, but they made an effort to include me, so I didn't feel lonely at all. By the way, there were two other solo participants besides me.
As soon as we set sail, we saw a whale. However, it took a while for the dolphins to appear. Finally, we spotted them and were able to see them up close three times. Since it’s the birthing season, there were baby dolphins too.
During snorkeling, I was able to see turtles, various beautiful fish, and even rays.
On the way back, we saw two whales very close to us again.
It was full of experiences that you can't have in Japan, and I can't wait to brag about it to my family and friends when I get back.
This is definitely a tour you should join!!
Thank you so much to the crew!
ホテルには6:00のピックアップだったので、眠たい目をこすって集合場所へ。事前にホテルの場所を聞いてくれるのでホテルの近くまで来てくださいました。
スタッフのみなさんがとても親切でハイテンション!!私は一人参加だったのでさみしいかなって心配だったんですけど、輪に入れてくれようと気遣ってくださったので全然寂しくありませんでした。ちなみに一人参加の方は私以外に2人いらっしゃいました。
いざ出航してすぐにクジラがいました。だけどなかなかイルカは現れてくれません。やっと見つけて飛び込むこと3回とても近くにイルカを見ることができました。今は出産シーズンということで赤ちゃんのイルカもいました。
シュノーケリングではカメをみることができたし、いろんなきれいなさかな、そしてエイもみました。
帰りにはまたクジラがすごく近くに2頭も。

Seeing and touching dolphins up close like this is something you can't easily do in Japan! It's definitely a must-visit at least once! Although it's a bit pricey, I think it's worth booking the Royal Course. You can kiss the dolphins, hold onto the dorsal fins and swim, and the dolphins will even push you with their snouts while you swim. They keep the camera rolling the whole time, taking photos for you, and within an hour, you can purchase the photos or a DVD. If you can swim, I highly recommend this experience. You'll wear a life jacket, but you need to swim to the edge of the pool on your own, so if you can do a dog paddle, you can participate! It might be a bit difficult for those who can't swim at all.
Depending on the season, it can be cold when you get out of the pool, so I think it's a good idea to bring something to wear over your clothes.
イルカがこんなに間近で見て、触れるなんて!
日本じゃなかなかできないことですので、絶対に1度は訪れるべきです!
少し高いですが、ロイヤルコースを予約するといいと思います。
イルカとkissしたり、2頭の背びれにつかまって泳いだり、イルカが鼻の先で足裏を押してくれて、泳いだりできます。終始カメラを回しており、写真も撮ってくれて、1時間もあれば、写真やDVDを購入することができます。
泳ぐことができる人であれば、是非経験したほうがよいと思います。
ライフジャケットを身につけますが、1人でプールの端まで泳いでいかないといけないので、犬かきができる人であれば、体験できます!まったく泳げない人は少し難しいかも。
季節によって、プールから上がると寒いので、羽織るものを持っていった方がよいと思います。

Unfortunately, I was not satisfied with this tour. Even though they said we would see sea turtles, we only saw a turtle briefly poke its head out from the boat, so we couldn't take any photos. The cruise was just a short trip around the bay. The meals were simple. The staff also left an impression of being rough around the edges. I thought $60 was too expensive for this experience.
残念ながら今回のツアーは満足できませんでした。
ウミガメに会えると言っても、船の上からちょこっと顔を出した亀をみるだけなので、写真にもとれず。
クルーズと言っても、湾の周りをちょろっとまわる程度。
食事も簡素。
スタッフもガラの悪い人たちとの印象。
これで60ドルは高すぎると思いました。

It has been a little while, but I participated in a dolphin swimming experience in Hawaii. The bright staff and their efficient service were great. There were a lot of people, and although we discovered a pod of dolphins, we found that entering the water late meant we missed out... That was a bit of a downside. While having a large group can be exciting, I felt that it might be better to have a bit of a limit on the number of participants. However, I would like to try the dolphin academy next time.
ちょっと時間が経ってしまいましたが、発ハワイでイルカと泳ぎたく参加しました。
明るいスタッフや手際の良い対応はよかったです。
人数が多く、イルカの群れを発見したものの
遅くに海に入ると間に合わない・・・という事があったのが
ちょっと難点でした・・・。
人数が多いと盛り上がっていいのですが、もう少し人数制限してもいいのかな、と感じました。
でも次回はイルカ中学の方を試してみたいと思います。

This was my first time going to Hawaii with my husband, and this time we booked activities online. The weather was nice on the day, but it was a bit chilly, and I wondered how it would go. However, the enthusiasm of the staff and the other participants made me forget the cold! The staff were very warm and friendly, and I was able to spend the whole time with a smile.
We got to see dolphins swimming, and we even encountered a whale! I had given up hope since it was still early in the season, so it was a surprise. I was so excited! It must be due to everyone's good deeds. The hamburgers for lunch were also really delicious, and the dance time was fun!

It was a program where we could interact with dolphins, so my husband’s parents and I participated together. This was my first time joining, and the dolphin that happened to assist us was Kekaimaru from Walfin. Since it was my first time interacting with a dolphin, I couldn't really tell the difference, but I was told that it was a bit larger than a regular dolphin. The staff were all very kind and accommodating, and I had a great time.

今回初めての参加でしたが、たまたま対応してくれたイルカがウォルフィンのKekaimaruちゃんでした。イルカに触れ合うこと自体が初めてだったので、違いがよくわかりませんでしたが、普通のイルカよりも少し大きいとのことでした。

I participated with my mother and sister. Since it was their first time in Hawaii, I thought my sister would want to go snorkeling and my mother would enjoy the beautiful scenery, so we joined this tour. We were picked up at the Ambassador Hotel and transferred to a large bus at the Sheraton Hotel to set off! The bus was freezing cold, and my sister, who was wearing short sleeves, was feeling chilly. We arrived at the port on time. The waves were calm, and thankfully, there was no seasickness, thanks to the fun staff, and we quickly reached the turtle watching point! We saw sea turtles, but just for a moment! Their heads popped up briefly. We saw a few, but I think it would be difficult to take pictures. My mother, who expected to see the turtles up close, was a bit disappointed. Next, we went to the sandbar! We had 40 minutes there. First, we took photos! It felt very free, as everyone could do their own thing. The staff took pictures, so couples and groups could get photos together. I thought about wearing clothes, but since the water was up to my waist, I went in my swimsuit. Standing in the middle of the ocean was truly magical! Next was snorkeling. We swam along a rope to avoid disturbing the current. I think beginners should wear life jackets. They only explained how to breathe, and there was no actual practice. My sister, feeling confident since it was her second time, struggled to breathe and almost drowned, which made my mother and me burst out laughing! Snorkeling was really enjoyable, and we saw lots of small fish. I had so much fun that I wanted to do it more. On the way back, we filled our stomachs with sandwiches and warm tea, laughed at Yukiko's stories, and arrived at the port. On the bus, I fell into a deep sleep, probably from waking up early and swimming. It was a great tour that ended on time in the morning, allowing us to use our time meaningfully. However, there were really a lot of newlywed couples! If you want to snorkel a lot, a full-day tour might be better. The bus driver on the way back was a native speaker with excellent pronunciation and was somehow very high-energy! We laughed again! On the return bus, we had to raise our hands to indicate where to get off. I think the Sheraton will stop properly, but we almost missed the Ambassador stop because of the excellent pronunciation! Since we got back on the bus wet, I recommend bringing a long-sleeve cover-up and a bath towel. This tour was well-organized, and we had a meaningful time; it was truly enjoyable. It became a wonderful memory.
母と姉と3人で参加しました。母と姉は初のハワイだったのでシュノーケルがしたい姉、母には綺麗な景色を見てもらいたいと思いこちらに参加しました。アンバサダーホテルでピックアップしてもらい、シェラトンホテルで大型バスに乗り換えて出発!バスは冷房ガンガンで半袖の姉は寒がってました(^^;時間通りに港に到着。波も穏やかで心配していた船酔いもなく、楽しいスタッフのおかげであっという間にタートルウォチングポイントへ!!ウミガメは見れたけど…一瞬!顔がピョコっと出る程度。何匹かみれたけど写真に撮るのは難しいと思います(-_-;)ウミガメがガッツリ見れると思っていた母はちょっと残念がってました(^-^;次にサンドバーへ!!滞在時間は40分。まず写真撮影~♪おのおので自由にという感じです。スタッフが撮ってくれるのでカップルやグループでもみんなで写った写真が撮れます。洋服を着ていこうと思いましたが、水が腰ぐらいまであったので水着で行きました。海のど真ん中に立てるっていうのはとにかく神秘的!次にシュノーケル。海流を乱さないためにロープに沿って泳ぎます。初めての方は救命着を着た方がいいと思います。呼吸の仕方などは説明のみで実際に練習はなしです。姉は「二度目だから~♪」と調子に乗って上手く呼吸ができず溺れかけていました。これに母と私は爆笑!シュノーケルは本当に気持ちよくて、小さな魚がいっぱい見れました。楽しかったのでもっとしたかったです。帰りの船でサンドウィッチと暖かい紅茶でお腹を満たし、ユキコさんの話で爆笑し、港に到着。バスでは早起き&泳いだ疲れか爆睡でした。時間通り午前中のうちに終わるツアーで時間を有意義に使えるツアーで本当に良かったです。ただ、ほんっっとに新婚カップルばっかりでした(^_^;)シュノーケルをたくさんしたい方は1日ツアーの方がいいかもしれません。帰りのバスの運転手はまぢのネイティブで発音がめっちゃ良い英語&なぜかハイテンション!これにまた爆笑!帰りのバスは降りる所が挙手制で、シェラトンはちゃんと停まると思いますが、アンバサダーは危うく乗り過ごすところでした。なにせ発音がめっちゃ良いので(笑)帰りは濡れたままバスに乗るので、長袖の羽織りとバスタオルは持参した方がいいと思います。こちらのツアーは段取りもよく有意義な時間を過ごせ、本当に楽しかったです。いい思い出になりました。ワイ

Sandbar is a place I always wanted to visit. I was aware that the height of the water varies depending on the season and time. When I actually went, the water was about knee to waist deep. Even so, it was incredibly beautiful and felt great.
The staff were kind, and I had a lot of fun. The burgers were delicious too.
Playing beach volleyball while being submerged up to my waist was quite tough, but I was able to enjoy playing with other guests I met for the first time.
Also, if you're going during this season (winter), it can get cold when the wind blows over the water, so it's definitely a good idea to bring clothes to wear over your swimsuit and a large beach towel.
サンドバーは、一度は行ってみたかった場所。
時期や時間によって、海面の高さが違うのは承知の上。
実際に行った時は、膝上から腰ぐらいの深さだった。
それでも、実に美しくって、気持ちよかった。
スタッフの皆さんは、親切で、とっても楽しめました。
バーガーも美味しかったなぁ。
腰ぐらいまで浸かってのビーチバレーはさすがにキツかったけど、初対面の他のお客さんとも、楽しく遊べました。
あと、この時期(冬)に行くのなら、海上で風が吹くと寒いので、水着の上から着る服や、大きめのビーチ・タオルは必ず、持って行った方が良いですよ。

I had made various plans, and I received a notification the day before my arrival in Japan that the course had changed. Since I had already set my plans before departing, to find out that the desired course would change just one day before (with only two days left) is frustrating! The reason given was that there would be a motorcycle race. Surely, they must have known about this well in advance! Are they really deciding on the motorcycle race just a day before?!
I had hoped to follow a course that included filming locations from Jurassic Park, but it got canceled. This is terrible! They should have known about this at the time of booking. They just took my reservation and then informed me the day before that the course was unavailable... it's awful! I'm really disappointed!
I think it's important to double-check these things, as situations like this can happen!
いろいろ予定を決め、日本で予約到着後前日にコースが変わると連絡をいただきました。予定を決めてから出発していたため、しかも前日(残り2日)希望のコースが変わるなんて!理由はバイクレースがある為、とのこと。前日よりも前にわかっていることでしょう!!!!!!明日バイクレースやる?って決めることでしょうか?!
ジェラシックパークの撮影場所をめぐるコース希望だったので、キャンセルになりましたけど、
ひどいです!予約の時点でわかっていそうなものなのに、予約取るだけとって、前日にそのコースは出来ませんって・・・ひどいです!

This is my third time in Hawaii, but it was my first time riding a submarine.
First, we took a boat for about 5 to 10 minutes to reach the submarine, but even for someone like me who gets seasick easily, it was fine. There was so much to see that I didn't have time to feel sick! The beach viewed from the sea was very beautiful, and Diamond Head was truly impressive. Plus, we even saw a pod of dolphins!!! I boarded the submarine in a state of great excitement.
The guide was American, but he explained everything in very beautiful Japanese, so the audio guide was unnecessary. (He also made a lot of jokes, which were entertaining.) Of course, I was excited to see the fish and sea turtles, but I was particularly thrilled by the shipwrecks and airplanes.
I'm not sure if I will repeat this experience the next time I go to Hawaii, but I definitely recommend it to those who haven't tried it yet.
ハワイは3回目ですが、潜水艦に乗るのは今回が初めてでした。
まずは船で潜水艦まで5分~10分ぐらい?かけて行きますが、船酔いしやすい私でも大丈夫でした。
というのも、見るものが多すぎて酔っている場合じゃない!のです。
海側から見るビーチはとても美しく、ダイアモンドヘッドも大迫力でした。
しかも、イルカの群れまで!!!
大興奮のまま潜水艦に乗り込みました。
ガイドさんはアメリカの方でしたがとても綺麗な日本語で説明してくれたので、オーディオガイドは不要でした。
(ジョークも多く、面白かったです。)
魚やウミガメはもちろんですが、私は沈没船や飛行機にわくわくしました。
次にハワイに行った時、リピートするかはわかりませんが、未体験の方には是非おすすめです。

でも、ひざ下ぐらいまでの水がありちょっと残念でした。(よく見るサンドバーは、本当に見れる日が限られてるから感・・・?)
しかし、スタッフの方もとても楽しい方々で、内容も充実していてとても満足です。

After seeing the dolphins, while moving to a point where we could see sea turtles, we were stopped in the water due to engine trouble. We returned to port safely on the one boat that was functioning. The hula dance lesson, the staff's planned dance on the boat, and the BBQ lunch (which had been cooked on the boat but was cold) were held at a park instead.
It seemed to be an unexpected trouble, but the staff were smiling, kind, and fun, which made me forget that we hardly got to do any snorkeling or experiences like kayak surfing or paddle surfing.
However, what was disappointing was the company's response. Despite the schedule changes due to the boat trouble, the apology was simply a discount on the DVD (which could be purchased by those who wanted it) from 8,000 yen to 3,000 yen. At that moment, everyone was tired from seasickness and agreed to it, but considering that some might not want to purchase it, I found it strange.
It was truly disappointing, especially since all the staff were great. Among the group, I was the only one participating for the second time, and knowing how much fun I had the first time made me feel sorry for my friends who joined me this time. Even though it was an unexpected trouble, I believe such situations could happen again in the future, and I hope they will consider a proper response.
I appreciate the participants and the staff for their efforts. Thank you very much.
イルカを見たあとに、ウミガメのみれるポイントに移動中、
エンジンのトラブルで、海の上で足止め、
二つのうち一つ無事なほうで、帰港しました。
フラダンスレッスン、船上で予定していたスタッフのダンス、BBQランチ(船で焼かれたものを持ってきてあり、冷えてました)は公園で行われました。
予想外のトラブルだったようですが、スタッフの方たちは、笑顔で優しく楽しく、結局シュノーケリングがほとんどできなかったこと、カヤックサーフィンやパドルサーフィンなどの体験もできなかったことを忘れさせてくれる気がしました。
ただ、残念なのが、会社の対応です。船のトラブルで、スケジュールに変更があったにもかかわらず、お詫びが『(希望者のみ購入する)DVD8000円を3000円に割引します』といったものでした。その場では、皆船酔いなどの疲れもあり、了承しましたが、購入しない場合もあることを考えるとおかしいと思います。
スタッフの方たちが、全員よい方だっただけに本当に残念です。グループで参加の中、私だけ二回目参加で、一回目とても楽しかったことを知っていただけに一緒に参加した友人にも申し訳ない気持ちになりました。
予想外のトラブルとはいっても、今後もあり得ることだと思いますし、キチンとした対応を考えていただきたいと思います。
参加者のかたたち、スタッフのみなさんの対応には感謝いたします。ありがとうございました。

I have been riding for 20 years, and since I only rode outside of Oahu in Hawaii, this was my first time riding on Oahu. I think it was great that I rode with a mother and daughter from the United States, and it turned out to be even better than I expected. Here, on full-day or half-day tours, there are mostly Japanese people, but this 2-hour ride is not included in the tours, so I really enjoyed experiencing Hawaii's nature while riding. I want to go again.
乗馬歴は20年と長く、ハワイではオアフ以外でしか乗馬しなかったので、初めてのオアフ乗馬でした。
一緒に乗ったのが米国の母娘さんだったのもよかったと思いますが、思っていた以上に良かったです。
ここは、一日や半日ツアーだと日本人ばかりですが、この2時間乗馬はツアーに組み込まれないので、本当にハワイの自然を乗馬で楽しめました。
もう一度行きたいです。
Dear Yabo,
We all look forward to your next visit!
ヤーボウ様
是非またのお越しをスタッフ一同お待ちしております!!

This was my third time, but it was completely different from before and had turned into just a sightseeing experience. Ten years ago, it was truly educational, and even five years ago, although the time was shorter, it still felt educational. Each person received a certificate, and the children were very happy. With so many participants being managed in such a short time in a show space like now, the appeal is almost nonexistent. Japanese aquariums are much better.
今回で3回目でしたが、以前とは全く違って単なる観光になっていました。
10年前は本当に教育、5年前も少し時間が短くなりましたが、教育という感じで、一人一人に修了証書ももらって、子供たちも大喜びでした。
今のように、こんなに大量の参加者にさばいて、短い時間でショースペースで行うようでは、魅力はほとんどなくないです。
日本の水族館の方がよほどいいです。

I had participated in other countries, and it was indeed fun. My husband, who has a fear of heights, and I jumped together, and although he was scared at first, by the end, he seemed satisfied and said he had a great time. The staff, including foreign members, took photos for others as well, and the experience flew by. I want to do it again!
他の国で参加したことがあったのですが、やはり楽しかったです。高所恐怖症の旦那と二人で飛んだのですが、最初は怖がっていた旦那も最後は楽しかった~と満足のようでした。他の方の時もスタッフの外人の方が写真を撮ってくれたりと、あっという間でした。またやりたいです!

I had seen a hula dance show in Guam before. I wondered if it would be similar, but since I was in Hawaii, I decided to watch it there as well. Even though the type of dance was the same, it was truly amazing no matter how many times I saw it!!! I got to see a lot of different types of dances, and the fire dance was absolutely captivating!!! It was so incredible that I still can't forget it and I want to see it again☆ The women were beautiful, and the men were strong♪ It was a lot of fun!!!
以前グアムでもフラダンスショーは見たことがありました。
似た感じなのかなぁと思いましたが、せっかくなのでハワイ
でも見る事に♪
ダンスの種類は同じでもやっぱり何度見てもすばらしい!!!
いろんな種類のダンスがいっぱい見れたし、何と言っても
ファイヤーダンスがくぎ付け!!!
すごくて今でも忘れられないしまた見たいって思いました☆
女性は綺麗だったし男性はたくましかったし♪
とても楽しかったです!!!
