Last year, I participated and my wife really liked it, so we applied for the second time. I thought the staff's response was good as well. We were satisfied to encounter dolphins, turtles, and tropical fish.
昨年参加して妻が気に入ってしまい、2回目の申し込みをしました。スタッフの対応もよかったと思います。イルカ、亀、熱帯魚と遭遇して満足できました。

There are many tours where you can see wild dolphins, but Dolphin & You is truly recommended. The staff's response is polite, and they can communicate in Japanese, of course. The local staff are kind, so even those who are afraid of the ocean can enjoy themselves with peace of mind.
The snorkeling after seeing the dolphins is enjoyable even for those who have dived at various points before. It has a charm different from diving.
The DVD I purchased turned out great, and it's a wonderful memory. I definitely want to go to Hawaii again and participate!
野生のイルカと会えるっていうツアーは沢山あるけど、ドルフィン&ユーは本当におすすめです。
スタッフの対応も丁寧、日本語ももちろん通じるし、現地スタッフの方も心優しくて、海が怖い方も安心して楽しめると思います。
イルカを見たあとのシュノーケリングは、今までダイビングでいろいろなポイントに潜ったことがある方でも、充分楽しめると思います。ダイビングとは違った魅力がありました。
購入したDVDもいい出来で、とてもいい思い出です。
またぜひハワイに行って参加したいです!!

We participated as a family of five (husband and wife + 8-year-old + 5-year-old + grandmother, 63 years old). I was worried because the children couldn't swim, but it was no problem at all. It happened to be my eldest son's birthday that day, and I was concerned about whether we would see dolphins, but a dolphin came close to my son, and he was overjoyed! After that, we also encountered turtles and beautiful tropical fish. It truly became a wonderful birthday memory. The staff were very kind, and I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises!
ファミリー5人で参加しました。
(夫婦+8歳+5歳+おばあちゃん63歳)
子供たちが泳げないので不安でしたが全然問題なかったです。ちょうどこの日は長男の誕生日、イルカに逢えるか心配でしたが長男の近くまでイルカが来てくれて大喜びでした!
その後に亀やきれいな熱帯魚にも逢えました。本当に良い誕生日の思い出になりました。スタッフの皆さんもとっても親切でまた機会があったら参加したいです!

I participated with a friend on July 19. It was my first time snorkeling and swimming with dolphins, so I was a bit anxious, but it was incredibly fun.
On the day, we weren't able to see many dolphins, but I was really happy that the staff worked hard to find spots where we could see them. Since they are wild dolphins, it's not guaranteed that you'll see them, but we were satisfied to see at least a few.
The hamburgers they grilled on the boat were also really delicious, and it became a wonderful memory. Moreover, everyone on the staff, including Yuriko, was truly kind, and we had a great time.
Thank you very much. I would definitely love to participate again.
7/19に友人と二人で参加しました。私はシュノーケルもイルカと泳ぐのも初めてだったので、少々不安もありましたが、すごーーーく楽しかったです。
当日はあまりイルカを見る事ができなかったのですが、私たちにイルカを見せてくれようとスタッフの皆さんが一生懸命になってイルカのいるスポットを探してくれたのがとても嬉しかったです。
野生のイルカなので必ずしも会えるとは限らないのですが、結果的に少しでも見れて私たちは満足です。
船の上で焼いてくれたハンバーガーもすごく美味しくて、本当によい思い出になりました。それにユリコさんをはじめスタッフの皆さんも本当によい方ばかりでとっても楽しかったです。
どうもありがとうございました。また是非参加させてもらいたいです。

I participated with a close friend. Since it was both of our first time in Hawaii, we were looking for activities where we could see dolphins, but I was a bit worried because I wasn't confident in my swimming skills. The Japanese guide, Keiko, and the local staff were all very cheerful and kind. This time, based on the captain's decision, we descended the stairs of a catamaran and followed a pod of dolphins while holding onto a rope. I thought I wouldn't be able to chase the dolphins while snorkeling, so this was an unexpected and wonderful method! I heard that now, to protect baby dolphins, they swim fast and it's hard to keep up with them while snorkeling. I was so impressed by the staff who tried to show us the dolphins up close! There were plenty of dolphins, and it was a wonderful time. At the snorkeling spot, there were also turtles, and everyone was really enjoying themselves. The hamburgers were very delicious, and the hula dance lesson was fun. I would love to participate again when I go back to Hawaii.
仲良しの友だちとふたりで参加しました。
ふたりとも初ハワイだったのでイルカに会えるアクティヴィティを探していたんですが、泳ぎに自信がない私は少々心配もありました。
日本人ガイドのkeikoさんもロコのスタッフさんもとっても朗らかな良い方ばかりでしたし、今回は船長さんの判断でカタマランという船の階段に降り、ロープにつかまったままイルカの群れを追って見る方法でした。私はシュノーケルでイルカを追うのはできないなぁ…と思っていたので願ってもいない方法でした!今は赤ちゃんイルカを守るためにスピードが速くなかなかスノーケリングでは追いつけないそうです。なんとか近くで見せてくれようと考えてくださったスタッフに感激!イルカの数もいっぱいで素敵な時間でした。
スノーケルのポイントでは亀もいてみんな本当に楽しんでいました。
ハンバーガーもとってもおいしかったし、フラダンスレッスンもおもしろかったです。
またハワイに行ったら参加したいです。

The purpose of this trip was different, but while browsing the internet, I couldn't help but want to meet dolphins and sea turtles, which made choosing options within my limited time quite difficult.
I had been to Sea Life Park before, and since they offer activities where you can interact and play with dolphins, I thought that might be nice. I also considered scuba diving in the waters of Hawaii since I have diving experience...
I decided on Dolphin & You because, after looking at their website, it seemed like a very eco-friendly tour that was gentle on both people and nature.
It was a great choice!! It felt almost like a waste to go alone. I got to meet dolphins and encountered sea turtles. I didn't realize it at the time, but in the experience DVD I purchased, I discovered a sea turtle snuggling up next to the boat during the final photo session. My camera captured close-ups of the sea turtles and underwater shots of me looking graceful like a mermaid, taken by the accompanying photographer and local boys. I also learned hula while wearing a pareo and enjoyed delicious burgers—everything was perfect.
The most impressive part was the excellent service and thoughtfulness of all the staff. Since it was an early morning trip, we were able to make effective use of our time, and it was a day of complete satisfaction.
Even though the memories of the trip are fading, my passion for dolphins has not cooled down. I absolutely recommend it!
今回の旅の目的は他にあったのですが、ネットを見ているうちに、どうしてもイルカや海亀に会いたくなり、限られた時間でのオプション選びに迷いました。
シーライフパークは前に行ったことがあり、イルカとふれあい、遊べるアクティビティーというのでそれもいいかなとか、ダイビング経験があるので、ハワイの海でのスキューバダイビングにしようかとか・・・
ドルフィン&ユーに決めたのは、ホームページを見て、とてもエコロジーで人にも自然にも優しいツアーのように思えたからです。
大正解!!
一人参加がもったいないくらい。イルカにも出会えたし、海亀にも遭遇。そのときには気づかなかったけど、購入した体験DVDには最後の記念撮影の船の傍らにしっかり寄り添う海亀ちゃんを発見。持参したカメラには、同行のカメラマンやロコボーイが撮ってくれた、海亀の接写、水中での私の姿が人魚のように華麗に。
パレオをつけてフラも習い、おいしいバーガーもいただき、いうことなし。
一番の感激はスタッフ全員のの対応のよさと、思いやりです。
早朝の便だったので、時間も有効に使え、なにもかも大満足の一日でした。
旅の思いでが薄れるのに、いまだイルカ熱はさめません。絶対おすすめです!

I couldn't swim with the dolphins. To be honest, wild dolphins move quickly.
You can see dolphins from the boat. They're cute.
I felt it was a bit of an exaggeration, but I'm satisfied.
イルカとは泳げませんでした。
って言うか、野生のイルカは動きが早い。
船からイルカは見ることが出来ます。かわいいです。
少し誇大広告の気もしました。でも満足です。

This time, we participated as a family of four. We were able to see whales, and as the tour name suggests, we got to swim with dolphins. I was impressed by the staff's service, as they even caught a sea turtle and showed it to us up close. Their effort to make sure we had a good time was evident. My son was thrilled and excited. My wife and daughter suffered from seasickness, but it seems they still enjoyed the fun atmosphere. I want to thank everyone, including the captain. When I signed up, the cost felt a bit high, but after participating, I think it was reasonable for what we experienced.
今回は家族4人で参加しました。鯨も見れたし、ツァー名どおりイルカと泳ぐことができました。また、ウミガメを捕まえてすぐそばで見せてくれたりと、スタッフのサービスに感激しました。楽しんでもらおうとしている気持ちが伝わってきました。息子は感激して興奮していました。妻と娘は船酔いで悲惨でしたが、それでも楽しい雰囲気は充分味わえたようです。船長さんをはじめ、皆さんにお礼を言いたいです。費用は、申し込むときは少し高額な気がしましたが、参加してみると内容的には妥当であったと思います。

On December 12th, I participated with my husband and two daughters, making it a group of four. I apologize for the late posting. I got a bit delayed due to the year-end hustle and bustle...
On the day, the weather was cloudy and a little chilly, but we were able to see the dolphins perfectly. Swimming with the dolphins... my 8-year-old daughter kept saying, "Wow! I'm swimming with dolphins!!" while still wearing her snorkel. The dolphins seemed to enjoy our daughter's excitement, and we got to spend a lot of time with them. It was truly a fun and healing experience. During our stay in Hawaii, my daughters kept saying, "I want to see dolphins!" every day, and even after returning to Japan, my 17-year-old daughter said, "Swimming with dolphins was the most fun!" We definitely want to participate again on our next trip to Hawaii!! My husband, who is a surfer, was left behind at Makaha...
Lastly, I want to thank Yuriko, the captain, Peachan, Kai, Jasmine, Adam, and all the staff for their great care. Thank you very much!!
12月12日、主人と2人の娘と4人で参加しました。書き込み遅くなってすみません。年末のごたごたでついつい遅くなってしまいました・・・。
当日、お天気は曇りで少し肌寒かったのですがイルカちゃんにはバッチリ会うことが出来ました。イルカと一緒に泳いで・・・8歳になる下の娘なんかはシュノーケルをくわえたまんま「スゴーイ!イルカと泳いでる~!!」の連発。イルカに夢中の我が家の娘に合せてくれたのか、イルカとの時間をたくさん取ってもらえました。本当に楽しかったし、癒される体験でした。その後のハワイ滞在中も「イルカ行きたい!」と毎日言われ、日本に帰ってからも「イルカが一番楽しかった!」と、17歳の上の娘も言っています。次回のハワイも是非参加させていただきます!!サーファーの主人はマカハに置き去りにして・・・。
最後になりましたが、ユリ子さん、キャプテン、ピーチャン、カイ、ジャスミン、アダム、スタッフの皆さん大変お世話になりました。ありがとうございました!!
