2.5-Hour Haleiwa ATV Tour & Off-Road Small-Group Adventure - Top Rated!

Great day with the fam!

Reviewed by: Adam

I took my wife and 3 kids on this ATV tour. Keoki was our tour guide, and he did such a good job. What I really liked most about the tour were the different terrains we got to ride through. Keoki got everyone properly prepared for some of the thrills we'd encounter, and the kids weren't scared at all.
Overall, the kids rated it as their favorite day of our 10-day vacation.
Highly recommend!

シーライフパーク・ハワイ イルカと触れ合える人気プログラムは選べる3プラン 海の生き物への餌やり体験、イルカやアシカのショーなど充実の園内<送迎付きプランあり>

I definitely recommend Sea Life Park over the zoo and the aquarium! 動物園より、水族館より、シーライフパークが断然オススメです!

Reviewed by: まりこ

The COVID-19 measures were such that only the staff were wearing masks outdoors, but since online reservations were required and there was likely a limit on the number of visitors, the park was not too crowded, naturally avoiding the three Cs (closed spaces, crowded places, close-contact settings). Alcohol disinfectant gel was installed throughout the park, and it was available for use whenever needed. The food court had tables spaced apart, which was reassuring, and I enjoyed a delicious American-style lunch at Naked Dog with self-service ketchup, mustard, and relish (chopped pickles).

For the main event, the Dolphin Encounter, my 9-year-old son participated alone while I filmed from outside the enclosure. He had no trouble with English, so it wasn't necessary, but a kind Japanese-American staff member offered to provide translation if needed, so I believe those who are anxious about their English can participate without any issues. Commemorative photos with the dolphins were available for purchase in two sets of four photos, with one photo costing $35, and for $65, you could get two large prints, two small prints, and all the digital data included. The ticket I purchased included one photo ($35 value), so I paid the additional $30 to get the package that included all the data. It turned out that I needed to have received a photo coupon at the entrance, which I hadn't, and I was told to go get it. However, the aforementioned kind staff member said, "Don't worry, I'll go get it," and promptly returned from the entrance with the coupon, which was a great help. I hope that kind staff member continues to work there for the benefit of future Japanese tourists visiting Sea Life Park.

I entered the giant birdcage with no expectations, but feeding the colorful birds turned out to be unexpectedly fun. The staff gave me handmade feeding sticks, and when I held the stick horizontally, the birds, accustomed to people, would hop on to eat. Even someone like me, who isn't particularly fond of birds, found it so enjoyable that bird lovers might not want to leave.

コロナ対策は、屋外では係の方々しかマスクはしていませんでしたがオンラインでの事前予約が必要で恐らく人数制限がある為園内はそれほど混んでおらず自然と三密は避けられていました。園内のいたる所にアルコール除菌ジェルが設置してあり気になった時には随時使えました。園内のフードコートはテーブル同士が離れており安心でしたし、naked dogにセルフサービスのケチャップ、マスタード、レリッシュ(刻みピクルス)をのせザ・アメリカンな美味しいランチをいただきました。

メインイベントのドルフィンエンカウンターは9歳の息子1人で参加し親は柵の外でビデオを撮っていました。息子は英語に不自由しなかった為不要でしたが日系人の親切な男性の係の方が必要ならば通訳をと申し出て下さいましたので、英語に不安のある方でも問題なく参加できると思います。イルカとの記念写真は2カット計4枚が購入可能で、1枚だけだと$35、$65払うとプリント大2小2枚+データが全て含まれたパッケージでした。今回購入したチケットには写真1枚($35相当)分が含まれていたので、差額分$30を払ってデータも全部含まれるパッケージを購入しました。その際どうやら入園時に入口で写真クーポンとやらをもらっていなければならなかったそうなのですがもらっておらず取りに行ってと言われましたが、前述の親切な日系係員の方が『Don't worry I'll go get it』と颯爽と園内を入口まで戻ってクーポンを取ってきて下さり大変助かりました。今後シーライフパークを訪れる日本人観光客の為にもあの親切な係の方が長く働き続けてくれる事を祈ります。

全然期待していないで入った、巨大な鳥籠内でカラフルな鳥に餌をあげたのが予想外に楽しかったです。手作りの餌棒を係の方がくれ、その棒を横にして持つと人に慣れた鳥が飛び乗って餌を食べに来ます。特に鳥好きではない私でもあんなに楽しかったので鳥好きの方は出られなくなるかもしれません。

ハワイでパラセーリング 高さ120m/150mの上空からワイキキとダイアモンドヘッドの絶景を鑑賞!<ヒルトン・ワイキキ>

It was absolutely amazing! めちゃくちゃ良かったです!

Reviewed by: あいうえお

It became the best memory in Hawaii!
I was scared before flying, but once I took off, the view was beautiful and it was amazing!!

The photos were $40, and they showed each one properly, allowing me to consider my purchase!

There were over 100 photos, and I felt like it was quite a bargain, so I ended up buying them!

For reference... Even if you usually don't get seasick, the boat can sway quite a bit, and I think you'll feel nervous too, so it's better to take motion sickness medication beforehand.

I took it, so I was fine, but my companion got seasick.

ハワイで最高の思い出になりました!
飛ぶ前は怖かったけど、
飛んでみたら景色がきれいで最高でした!!

写真も40ドルで、ちゃんと一枚一枚見せてくれた上で購入を検討できました!

100枚以上写真があって、かなりお得な気分で
購入しちゃいました!
 
参考までに…
普段船酔いしない方も、船が結構揺れるのと、
緊張とかもすると思うので、
酔いどめ飲んでおいたほうがいいです。

私は飲んでたので、大丈夫でしたが同行者は酔ってました。

The male staff were friendly and full of hospitality, which made it enjoyable. When you go up and the wind blows, it sways, so it might be safer to take motion sickness medication. Quite a few people were experiencing seasickness.

上に上がって風が吹くと揺れるので、酔い止めのお薬は飲んでおいた方が安全かもです。

ノースショア(ハレイワ)観光 ハレイワタウンで3時間の自由散策+ドールプランテーション!海辺の絶景を楽しめる乗馬付き(70分)プランあり<1日/送迎付き>

Horseback riding on the North Shore. ノースショアで乗馬

Reviewed by: KOU

During the drive, I found it fascinating to hear about the origins of Hawaii and current stories from the guide in Japanese. The Dole Plantation was also a perfect spot for a restroom break and souvenir shopping. The main horseback riding was guided by a kind elderly couple who owned the ranch, and it was enjoyable to ride through the forest course. Having only six people in the group made it relaxing and fun. It was my first time horseback riding, but it felt similar to walking a dog, and I was able to control the horse well. In Haleiwa, I tried the garlic shrimp that the guide recommended, and it was the best I've ever had. On the way back, I fell asleep and we quickly arrived in Waikiki. I'm glad I experienced this tour.

ドライブ中はガイドさんから、日本語でハワイの起源とか現在の話が聞けて興味深かった。
また、ドールプランテーションも丁度良いトイレ休憩とお土産購入になった。
メインの乗馬も牧場主の優しい老夫婦の案内で林間コースを回った。
人数が6人と少なかったのが良かったのか、のんびりして楽しかった。
乗馬は初めてだったが、犬の散歩と似ていてコントロールでき、良い子だった。
ハレイワでは、ガイドさんが教えてくれたガーリックシュリンプを食べたが、今までで一番美味しかった。
帰りは、寝てあっという間にワイキキに着いた。
このツアーは体験して良かった。

The photo I bought as an option was completely dark, and it made me sad. オプションで買った写真が真っ暗で悲しかった

Reviewed by: ごまごま

I participated in parasailing for the first time on my honeymoon. As a keepsake, I decided to purchase additional photos for $40 after the activity. At that time, I was shown a few close-up photos taken before and after the flight, which were well-lit and clearly showed my face, so I decided to buy them. However, upon reviewing the purchased photos, I found that most of them were too dark and poorly taken. I believe the overcast sky and light rain contributed to this, but I wish they had made adjustments to the camera settings. Although I was disappointed with the photos for $40, the staff's service during the activity was good.

新婚旅行で初のパラセイリングに参加しました。記念にと思い、アクティビティ終了後に、写真を40ドルで追加購入しました。その際はアップで撮っていただいた飛ぶ前後の写真を数枚見せてもらい、それはフラッシュがたかれ顔がわかる写りで撮れていたので購入しましたが、購入後見てみると、殆どの写真の被写体が真っ暗で上手く撮れていませんでした。あいにくの曇り空で小雨が降っていたせいもあると思いますが、カメラの設定を調整するなど工夫をして欲しかったです。
40ドルもしたので写真は残念でしたが、アクティビティ中のスタッフの対応は良かったです。
