Dolphin ドルフィン

Reviewed by: summer

This tour offers an experience that you absolutely cannot have on your own. The captain searched for wild dolphins, found the spots, and stopped the boat, which I thought was amazing. Dolphins are smart and swim fast, so we desperately chased after them, making it not easy to spot them. However, the excitement of seeing dolphins in the ocean made it all worthwhile. The guide and crew were friendly and kind, which made the experience enjoyable, and I am grateful for that. Our guide, Karen, is from Hawaii, but her Japanese is very good, and you can really feel her love for Hawaii. I thought she was such a lovely person! Thank you so much for this precious experience. MAHALO~♪

個人では、絶対に出来ない体験が出来るツアーです。船長さんが野生のイルカを探しながら、ポイントを見つけて、船を止めてくれて、スゴイなと思いました。イルカも賢いし、泳ぐのも速いから、私達も必死で泳ぎながら追いかけて、イルカを見つけるのは簡単ではなかったけど、その分、海の中でイルカを見れた時の感動は大きかったです。ガイドさんやクルーの方達もフレンドリー&親切で楽しかったし、感謝してます。ガイドのカレンさんはハワイ出身だけど、日本語がとても上手&とてもハワイを愛してるのを感じられて、可愛い人だなぁ〜と思いました。貴重な体験、どうもありがとうございました。MAHALO〜♪

I participated five years ago. 5年前も参加しました

Reviewed by: 大阪府

I participated in my first Hawaii trip five years ago, and it became my best memory, so I joined again without hesitation this time! We were able to see dolphins and turtles again! The staff, especially Shohta who speaks Japanese, were all so much fun, it felt like Disneyland!

However, it seemed like there were more people this time than last. The boat was crowded, and when swimming, there were so many people that it was hard to hear and see the dolphins. More than anything, I felt that the communication with the staff and the sense of unity among participants had decreased. This activity is different from others; I believe that the satisfaction comes more from the staff's interactions and the atmosphere rather than just seeing or playing with the dolphins, so I think having a bit more space would enhance the sense of unity.

It was a bit chilly in December, but it was fine without renting a wetsuit. The water wasn't cold. I felt like more than 10% of the participants got seasick. It seems like there weren't any sick people five years ago...? Maybe it was because of the winter and the high waves? Even if you usually don't get seasick, it might be a good idea to have some motion sickness medication.

5年前の初ハワイでも参加して、1番の思い出になったので今回も迷わず参加しました！今回もイルカもカメも見れました！スタッフさん、特に日本語担当ショウタさんはじめ皆さんとっても楽しくてディズニーランドみたいでした！
ただ、前回より人が多かった気がします。船ギュウギュウだし、泳ぐ時も人が多すぎて声が聞こえづらくてイルカも見づらかったです。何よりスタッフさんとのコミュニケーションや参加者の一体感が少なくなっていたと思います。このアクティビティは他と違って、イルカを見るとか遊ぶとかの目的よりもスタッフの皆さんの対応や雰囲気が満足につながっていると思うので、もう少しゆとりがあった方が一体感も出て良いと思いました。
１２月で少し寒い時期でしたが、ウエットスーツレンタル無しでも大丈夫でした。水は冷たくないです。1割以上の方が酔っていた気がします。5年前は酔った人いなかったような…？冬で波が高いとかですかね？普段酔わなくても酔い止めがあった方がいいかもしれません

Wild dolphins, snorkeling cruise 野生のイルカ、シュノーケリングクルーズ

Reviewed by: Kai Towada

I was able to see a lot of dolphins, just as the tour title promised! It takes about an hour by bus from the city to the port, but it can be quite bumpy, so if you are prone to motion sickness, it's a good idea to prepare some medication. Also, they recommend using sunscreen that does not contain ingredients harmful to coral. Everyone on the tour was cheerful, and we had a great time on the boat.

ツアーのタイトル通りたくさんのイルカに会えました！
市内から港まではバスで約一時間ですが結構ゆれるので車酔いする方は酔い止めを準備したほうがよいです。
また日焼けどめは珊瑚を傷つける成分がないものをとのことです。
ツアーみなさんが明るく、船上でも楽しく過ごせました。

The best tour if you don't get drunk!! I'm glad I did it! 酔わなければ最高のツアー！！やってよかった！

Reviewed by: まっきー

There's no guarantee that you'll definitely see dolphins, but I did.

First of all, it was tough getting up early, but there is a shuttle service to take you close to the departure point. There were quite a few Japanese people, and with a Japanese guide, I had nothing to worry about.
- Even if you usually don’t get seasick, I recommend taking motion sickness medication. I usually don’t get seasick, but even with medication, I felt nauseous towards the end. The boat sways so much that you can’t stand unless it’s anchored somewhere. The waves were high, and just floating in the water made me feel sick. There’s a toilet on the boat, so you can throw up without worrying about others (there are special bags available). They were selling motion sickness bands, but it seems to vary from person to person...
- If you can’t swim, don’t worry. I hadn’t swum in years and had no experience with snorkeling, so I was anxious, but they give you a briefing before swimming, and you wear a life jacket, so you definitely won’t sink. I felt very safe while snorkeling.
- It’s quite cold, so I think it’s better to rent a wetsuit. If you want to swim in a cute swimsuit, you’ll definitely need a cover-up and a towel.
- It was nice to have light snacks. They provided pineapple, snacks, and cheeseburgers to refresh your palate. For those who got seasick, the cheeseburger was a bit much, but they also give you a takeout bag. I got sick, so the pineapple and lemon water helped me.
- The crew performed a hula dance and were very lively, making it a fun and exciting experience.

I was able to see dolphins during my second snorkeling session. Since dolphins are fast, I found that sticking closely to the crew was key to seeing them. Swimming with a pod of dolphins was an indescribable experience. I even saw a baby dolphin. While watching from the boat, I saw them do spin jumps. I also caught a glimpse of a whale. It was moving to connect with nature.

After that, we moved to a snorkeling spot where we could freely play on slides and boats. There were turtles and lots of tropical fish.

I feel a bit guilty saying this, but if you board the boat last, you can sit towards the back. Being at the back means you get to enter the water first, so I was able to closely follow the crew and see the dolphins. There were some people who didn’t see any dolphins this time, but it really depends on timing.

You can’t take pictures with the dolphins or turtles; you need to keep your distance. It’s all about observing from afar. I did feel nauseous towards the end, but until then, I had a great time, so I have no complaints about this tour. All my anxieties were resolved, and I was able to participate! It was a safe, secure, and very enjoyable experience! If you’re considering joining, I highly recommend it! Just make sure to take precautions against motion sickness!

イルカに必ず会える保証はないですが、会えました。
まず早朝でしんどいですが近くまで送迎があります。結構日本人が多く、日本人ガイドもいて何も心配ありませんでした。
・普段酔わない方も酔い止め必須。普段酔いやすい私が酔い止めのんでも終盤吐きました。船がどこかにつかまらないと立っていられないくらい揺れます。波も高いので泳いで浮いてるだけでも酔いました。船にトイレもあるので人目を気にせずに吐けます(専用の袋があります)
酔い止めバンドを販売していましたが個人差があるみたいです…
・泳げない人でも大丈夫。何年も泳いだことない、シュノーケリング未経験な私は不安でしたが泳ぐ前にレクチャーしてくれるし、ライフジャケット着るので絶対に沈みません。とても安心してシュノーケリングできました。
・かなり寒いのでウェットスーツレンタルした方がいいと思います。可愛く水着で泳ぎたい方は上着とタオル必須です。
・軽食つきが有難い。お口直しのパイナップル、スナック、チーズバーガーが配られます。酔った人にチーズバーガーは追い討ちでしたがもちろんテイクアウト用の袋もくれます。私は酔ったのでパイナップル、レモンウォーターに助けられました。
・クルーがフラダンス披露してくれたり、ノリノリなのでとてもワクワク楽しいです。

イルカを2回目のシュノーケリングで見ることができました。イルカは早いのでしっかりクルーの先頭についていく事が見るコツかなぁと。群れで泳ぐイルカはなんとも言えない感動でした。子供のイルカもみれました。また船からもウォッチングしていたらスピンジャンプしてくれました。少しだけクジラも見ることができました。自然に触れられて感動です。
その後シュノーケリングする場所へ移動し、滑り台やボートなど自由に遊べます。カメもいましたし、熱帯魚がたくさんいました。

こんな事を書くとずるいですが、船に乗る時、最後にのると船の後ろらへんに座れます。後ろにいると海に入るのが先になるのでクルーにしっかりついていってイルカを見ることができました。今回はいませんでしたが、中には見れない人もいるみたいです。本当にタイミングです。
またイルカやカメと写真が撮れる、ということはないです。近寄ったりはダメなので。あくまでも遠くから見る、という感じです。
私は終盤によって吐きましたが、それまではとても楽しかったのでこのツアー文句ナシです。
私の不安も全部解消されて参加できました！安心、安全、とっても楽しい経験でした！
参加を検討されてる方、是非した方がいいですよ！
必ず酔い止め対策は誰でもしてくださいね！

The dolphins were slow to appear, and just as we were starting to feel discouraged, the cheerful hula dance by the crew got everyone excited, and then the dolphins showed up! We couldn't swim with them due to time constraints, but we were able to see many dolphins from the boat, including some jumping! It was a group of three ladies, and we had a great time with our first kayaking, waterslide, and snorkeling experience. One of us was worried about seasickness, but the anti-nausea bracelet we bought on the shuttle bus was very effective! The hamburgers for lunch were delicious, and the crew was kind and fun, making it an amazing experience. I would love to participate again when I go to Hawaii!

イルカがなかなか現れず、諦めムードのなか船上でクルーの陽気なフラダンスで盛り上がりはじめると、イルカ出現！時間的に一緒には泳げなかったけど、沢山のイルカが船上から見れました。ジャンプしているところも！おばさん3人組でしたが、初カヤック、滑り台、シュノーケリングとてもたのしかったです。１人船酔い心配でしたが送迎バスの中で買った酔い止めブレスレット効果的面！ランチのハンバーガーも美味しく、クルーのみなさんも親切で楽しく最高でした。また、ハワイに行ったら参加したいです。

Reviewed by: 夫はサングラス

It was an experience with professional hospitality. When I jumped off the large boat, I was excited to see dolphins and turtles swimming nearby and along the seabed. For snacks, we were served juicy beef patties in hamburgers, pineapple, snacks, and lemonade. I usually don't get seasick, but I felt a bit uneasy, so I didn't eat and took it back with me (there were some people who got sick). There was also a photographer on site who took pictures for us, which were available for purchase. I was a little anxious about snorkeling for the first time, but I had no worries and enjoyed it. I'm glad I participated and I recommend it.

If it helps. 参考になれば

Reviewed by: いるか

I participated in late November.

I think there are seasonal issues, but the waves were strong and the current was fast, causing many people to get seasick.

I saw that the boat is new and large, which supposedly makes it less shaky, but don't get your hopes up. The boat rocked, and after going into the rough sea with waves and strong currents two or three times, it really drained my energy and made me more prone to seasickness! For those participating, if you determine that the current is strong, I think it's better to just float and look down rather than trying to swim. Even if you're confident in your swimming skills, it's not just about that. Please be careful not to overestimate your abilities.

I was able to see dolphins both on the boat and in the water, but that's purely a matter of luck. I've seen promotional photos where many dolphins come close, but you shouldn't expect that. I think many people only catch a glimpse of them from a distance.

If you're just looking to see dolphins, there are other places where you can see and interact with them. You can also go snorkeling in beautiful, calm waters elsewhere. Unless you really want to see wild dolphins, I wouldn't particularly recommend this experience.

11月下旬に参加。

時期的な問題もあると思うが波があり潮の流れも早く、
多くの方が船酔いしていました。

船が新しく大きいから揺れにくいというのを見たけど
期待してはいけません。
船上で揺れた上、波があり潮がキツイ海に2度、3度入るとかなりの体力を消耗し、酔いやすくなります！
参加される方は、潮がキツイと判断したらただ浮いて下を見て浮いてるくらいに留めておいた方がいいかと思います。
泳ぎには自信があってもそういう問題ではないのだなと感じました。とにかく過信しないようにして下さい。

船上でも海中でもイルカを見れましたがこればかりは運です。プロモーションで多くのイルカが近くに寄ってきている写真を見ますがこれは期待してはいけません。かなり遠くで一瞬見れただけという人も多いと思います。

イルカだけなら他にも見れますし、触れ合える場所もあります。綺麗で穏やかな海でシュノーケリングも他で出来ます。
野生のイルカをとにかく見たい！という方以外には特にオススメするものでもないかなあ

I was helped when they called me at the hotel 30 minutes before the meeting time. Also, the Japanese guide, Karen, and the other staff were very energetic, and I was able to participate without getting seasick.

The boat was new and had a slide, which made it really fun. I felt a thrill when sliding down the slide, haha.

I was able to see dolphins three times. The final dance by the staff was very uplifting, and it was so much fun to dance along with them.

At the end, they even put stickers on my favorite parts of my body. ^_^

集合時間30分前にホテルに電話をくれたので助かりました。また、日本人ガイドのカレンさんや他のスタッフの方もとても元気で船酔いもせず参加できました。

I saw dolphins. イルカは見えました

Reviewed by: くるみ

I saw dolphins a few times. It might be a luxury, but this is my evaluation of the tour.

First, make sure to arrive early when boarding the boat. The staff will ask you to fill in from the back, but those who know will sit in the front.

Sitting in the front makes it easier to secure a spot near the staff who are aware of where the dolphins are, as people in the front will jump into the sea first.

Also, it’s inconvenient if there’s no basket for your belongings under you, so try to sit where there is a basket.

You will inevitably have to swim close to the staff. Other guests may kick you or push you aside, but keep moving forward without giving up.

After seeing the dolphins, the staff will say, “Those who haven’t seen a dolphin yet, please come to the front,” but those who are at a distance where they can’t see the dolphins at that point cannot move forward.

This is because those who have seen the dolphins do not give up their spots.

The staff warns not to touch the dolphins beforehand, but even when someone tried to touch them, they didn’t seem to pay much attention.

It’s possible that the group I participated in had a lot of people, and that’s why there were such guests.

At the very least, I felt that it was an unfair tour where some people could see many dolphins while others could not, even though we all paid the same amount.

I don’t think the number of people who can board the boat is the same as the number of people who can enjoy the tour.

It’s dangerous to be kicked by fins, and I think it would have been better to sign up for an experience where you can swim with dolphins at an aquarium instead of insisting on wild dolphins.

イルカは数回、見えました。
贅沢かもしれませんが、それでもツアーとしては
この評価です。

まず、船に乗る際は早めに行きましょう。
スタッフに奥から詰めるように言われますが
分かっている人は手前に座ります。

手前に座っている人から海に飛び込むため
イルカの場所を把握しているスタッフさんの
近くの場所を確保しやすいからです。

また、自分の下に荷物のかごがないと不便なので
下にかごがある場所に座りましょう。

スタッフさんの近くまで泳ぐのは必至で泳ぎます。
他のお客さんに蹴られますし、手で押しのけられますが負けずに進みましょう。

イルカを見た後スタッフの方が
「一度もイルカを見ていない人は前に」といいますが
その時点でイルカが見えない距離にいる人は
前に行けません。

イルカを見た人が前を譲らないからです。

イルカには触らないようにとスタッフの方が事前に注意していますが
触ろうとした人がいても、特に注意をしていませんでした。

私が参加した回が人数が多く、たまたまそういうお客さんだった
可能性もありますが、

すくなくとも、同じお金を払い同じ回に参加したとしても
たくさん見れる人と見れない人がいる不公平なツアーだと感じました。

船に乗れる人数とツアーを楽しめる人数は同じではないと思います。

フィンのついた足で蹴られるので危ないですし
別に野生のイルカにこだわらなくても
水族館のイルカと泳げるものに申し込んだ方がよかったと思っています。

a large pod of dolphins イルカの大群

Reviewed by: ロコロコ

The welcoming and the explanations after boarding were handled by a refreshing, handsome Japanese staff member, which made me feel at ease and enjoy the experience. It had been 20 years since I last swam, but thanks to the life jacket and the fins for my feet, I felt no anxiety. I was moved to encounter a large group of dolphins on both occasions. When I heard, "Look down at the sea! Dolphins!" and put my face in the water, I saw dozens of them swimming so close that I could almost touch them. We took plenty of photos with our phones in waterproof covers, and the videos of the dolphins turned out beautifully. Snorkeling was also amazing; I encountered sea turtles and got to experience the slide and stand-up paddleboarding, which was the best. The taro cheese burger was delicious too. When I made the reservation, I thought the price was a bit high, but considering it included the life jacket, snorkeling gear, a hamburger, and drinks, and especially the crew who made it fun, it was a very satisfying tour.

お迎え、乗船後の説明などずっと日本人の爽やかイケメンが担当してくれたので安心して楽しめました。
20年ぶりのスイミングでしたがライフジャケットと足に着けるフィンのお陰で不安に感じることなく、2回ともイルカの大群に出会えて感動しました。
「海側下見て！イルカ！」との声で海に顔をつけると、
本当に手に触れそうな近距離で何十頭が泳いでいきましたよ。
写真は自分達で防水カバーに入れた携帯でバシバシ撮って十分でしたし、イルカの動画も綺麗に撮れました。シュノーケリングも海亀に出会え、滑り台、スタンディングパドルも体験できて最高でした。
タロ芋チーズバーガーも美味しかったですよ。
予約する時はちょっと値段が高いかなぁと思いましたが、ライフジャケット、シュノーケリングセット込みでハンバーガー飲み物付き、何よりクルーが楽しませてくれてとても満足できたツアーでした。

Since there are good options available, I think it would be better to include the details on the tour page.

The photos and videos were $79. Groups that opted for this option wear special rubber bands, which allows them to receive priority for photos. I was satisfied with the results. However, picking up the USB at the office near DFS the next day was a bit of a hassle. It would be nice if they could send it to Japan for an additional $15.

The wetsuit was $10. I tend to get hot, but it was a good decision to wear it. The seawater was quite cold.

せっかく良いオプションがあるので、

It was challenging for my mother-in-law due to her leg issues, but the staff provided cheerful support when boarding and while she was seated, which we were truly grateful for.

I was thrilled to see wild dolphins and turtles!

However, I got a bit carried away and went down the boat slide, which left me with whiplash, making things difficult after returning home. I realized that in my 40s, I need to be more selective about activities as my body can't keep up.

Since we swam in the sea and got our swimsuits soaked, everyone changed in public restrooms after we docked before getting on the bus. I think it's better to bring a change of clothes.

The staff were bright and fun, making it a wonderful half-day experience!

Reviewed by: TOKO

We participated as a family of three (a couple and our 13-year-old daughter) who loves snorkeling and dolphins. When we arrived at the snorkeling point, we could see dolphin fins from the boat, and we even saw them jumping! That alone brought us so much joy.

There were about 70 participants that day. Before joining, I checked reviews that suggested staying close to the guide in the water, so we made sure to keep near them. When a pod of dolphins appeared, the guide shouted out directions, and we were able to see the dolphins... it was truly moving! Underwater, we could even hear the sounds of the dolphins. I didn't notice, but my daughter exclaimed that she saw a mother and baby dolphin!

We were lucky enough to see the pod multiple times, which was amazing. According to the guide, it was rare to see them that often. After that, we moved to a spot with turtles for snorkeling, but unfortunately, we couldn't swim with them. However, we did encounter a turtle that surfaced on our way back to the port, which made us very satisfied.

The tour content was very satisfying. A few points to note:
1. Take motion sickness medication beforehand.
2. We participated in August, but if you're sensitive to cold, it might be better to rent a wetsuit. I wore tights and a rash guard, but I was freezing and couldn't stop shaking after getting out of the water.
3. The return bus was quite cold, so it's essential to prepare for that.

シュノーケルもイルカも大好きな家族3人で参加（夫婦、１３歳女子）しました。シュノーケルポイントにつくと船上からイルカの背びれが見え、ジャンプする姿も・・・！もうそれだけで喜びが。
当日の参加者は70人と大人数。参加前に口コミ情報をチェックしたら、海ではガイドさんの近くにいるようにとあったのでガイドさんの近くをキープ。
イルカの群れが現れると大声で声掛けしてくれるのでその方向をみるとイルカの群れが・・・感動です！！水中ではイルカの声？も聞こえました。私は気づきませんでしたが、娘は親子のイルカがいた～！と。
一度だけではなく、何度もイルカの群れを見れて本当に最高でした。ガイドさんいわく、こんなに何度も見れるのはラッキーだったそうです。
その後カメのいるポイントに移動してシュノーケルしましたが、残念ながらカメと泳ぐことはできませんでした。（港に帰る途中でカメが水上へ現れたのに遭遇できたので気分的には大満足）
ツアーの内容は大満足でした。
注意点としては
①酔い止めを飲んでおく。
②８月参加でしたが冷え性の人はウエットスーツをレンタルしたほうがいいかも。（私はタイツとラッシュガードでしたが海からあがったら寒くて手の震えがとまらなかったです。）
③帰りのバスはかなり寒いので防寒対策必至です。

I was moved by the wild dolphins! Just a bit rushed. 野生のイルカに感動！ただちょっと急ぎ足。

Reviewed by: はなこ

I was able to encounter a pod of wild dolphins! As soon as we spotted the dolphins, we hurriedly put on our fins and masks. At the captain's signal, we jumped into the sea one after another and swam to the location guided by the staff. When we looked underwater at the signal, we could see dozens of dolphins swimming below us! The water was incredibly clear, providing excellent visibility. It was a great experience.

We raced the boat to the best spot, waited, and signaled; I believe that if any of these elements were missing, the timing wouldn't have worked out. It truly felt like a long-established tour!

Even after getting back on the boat, the pod of dolphins swam alongside us. (This seems to be rare.) At this time of year, there were also baby dolphins, and we were able to see the dolphins jumping, which made for an exciting time.

While the time with the dolphins was wonderful, there were a few things I would like to see improved, which is why I’m giving it one less star.
- I would have liked it to be clearly stated that we needed to swim quickly on our own to see the dolphins. (I had a parent in their 60s who is not a strong swimmer with me.)
- The time we could see the dolphins underwater was very brief. (Once the pod passed by, we got back on the boat and moved straight to the water play point.) I would have liked to have more time to see them in the sea again.
- I purchased photos, but none were taken underwater. (It was the maximum number of passengers on board that day, so perhaps the photographer couldn't manage?) It felt like there were many photos of children. While there were photos taken on the boat, the commemorative photos with the staff were in a conveyor-belt style, so we weren't looking at the camera. It was disappointing, especially since it cost $79.

The staff were cheerful, and the boat was lively with dancing and singing, making it a good experience where I could feel the beauty of Hawaii's nature.

野生のイルカの群れに会えました！
イルカを発見すると急いでフィンとマスクを装着。船長さんの合図で次々に海に飛び込み、スタッフの誘導する場所まで泳ぎます。合図で海中を見ると何十頭のイルカの群れが下を泳いでいくのが見えました！海は透明度抜群で視界もクリア。いい体験ができました。
ベストな場所へ船を走らせ、待機し、合図、このどれが欠けてもタイミングは合わなかったと思います。さすが老舗ツアーだと思いました！
船に上がってからもイルカの群れが船と並走。(珍しいそうです。)時期的に赤ちゃんイルカもいて、イルカのジャンプも見ることができ、ワクワクな時間が続きました。

イルカとの時間は素適でしたが、いくつか改善してほしいこともあり星マイナス1。
・イルカを見るために急いで自力で泳ぐ必要があることは明記してほしかった。(泳ぎの得意でない60代の親が一緒でした。)
・イルカを水中で見れたのは一瞬だった。(群れが通り過ぎたら船に上がってそのまま水遊びポイントへ移動してしまう。)もう一度海の中で見る時間をとってほしかった。
・写真を購入したが海の中で1枚も撮ってもらえなかった。(当日は乗船可能人数maxだったのでカメラマンの手が回らなかった？)子どもの写真が多い印象。船の上では写っていましたがスタッフとの記念写真も流れ作業状態なのでカメラ目線になっていなくて…。79ドルもしたのに残念です。

スタッフも明るく船内もダンスや歌で盛り上がり、ハワイの自然を感じられる良い体験はできたと思います。

My dream has come true! (*^^*) 夢が叶いました(*^^*)

Reviewed by: miya

I was initially anxious about the conditions of the sea (during the bus ride from Waikiki), but the crew who greeted us in Japanese quickly eased my worries. We encountered a pod of dolphins twice, and I was moved by their twist jumps right in front of us! It was a wonderful experience. The crew was really cheerful, and we laughed a lot, creating lovely memories. There were a few people who felt seasick, but I took motion sickness medication beforehand, so I had no issues. I also didn't experience any motion sickness after returning. The rental of dive suits was helpful as it kept me warm. Additionally, make sure to put your belongings in a waterproof bag, or they will get soaked.

潜る海の状況がわからず(ワイキキからバスでの移動に)不安がありましたが、バスで迎えてくれたクルーの日本語がうまく不安はすぐになくなりました。
2回もイルカの群れに出会い、目の前でツイストジャンプには感動！！素晴らしい体験でした。
また、クルー達はほんと愉快だし笑いっぱなしで素敵な思い出になりました。
船酔いで体調を崩している人も何人かいましたが、事前に酔い止めを飲んで参加したので問題なし。戻ってからの丘酔いもありませんでした。
ダイブスーツのレンタルも寒くならずに助かりました。
あと荷物は防水バックに入れないとビチョビチョになります。

Dolphins and more

Reviewed by: David F

Fantastic and energetic staff. Customer service was wonderful. Saw many Dolphin immediately. The guides in the water during the snorkeling time. Water was a little choppy and several customers were sick. Can’t do one thing about that, however, there needs to be another water cooler on the main level and one on the top level. Hydration is a must in these situations and water needs to be readily available for these people. Also, bigger cups. Lastly, during the swim on your own time, we saw a bunch of fish, but the wind was blowing the boat away from the swimmers and it was difficult to catch up. I would suggest a long rope line in the water with a orange float on the end that people can swim to when the boat is blowing away from the swimmers. Quick lunch a was good and well planned. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Would highly recommend this tour!!!

Second dolphin tour. 2回目のイルカツアー

Reviewed by: summer

I was taken care of three years ago as well. I was moved to see that some of the staff members I had met before remembered me. My daughter, who participated previously, was 7 years old and scared to swim in the deep sea, so my wife stayed close to her, and I couldn't see much, which made me want to try again. This time, my daughter is now 10 years old and happily went into the sea, where she was able to see dolphins and honu (sea turtles) clearly.

On the boat, all the staff members were very kind and cheerful, making the time pass quickly. However, one thing I found disappointing was that they introduced a new two-story boat that can accommodate about 70 people. Because of this, there was less opportunity for conversation with the staff, and when swimming to see the dolphins and honu, there were too many people, leading to frequent collisions among guests, which was unfortunate.

３年前にもお世話になりました。
スタッフは以前お世話になった方もおられ、しかも私の事を覚えてくれていたことには感動しました。以前参加した娘は７歳で深い海で泳ぐのが怖いと海に入れず、妻が付きっ切りとなりあまり見れなくてリベンジしました。今回は娘も１０歳となり平気で海にはいりイルカとホヌをしっかり見れたと喜んでおりました。
船上でもスタッフの皆さんがとても親切で明るく盛り上げて頂き、あっと言う間に時間が過ぎてしまいました。 ただ一つ残念に思ったのは新型の船を導入し２階建ての船となっており７０名ほど乗れるそうですが、その分スタッフとの会話も減りイルカやホヌを見に泳ぐときも人が多すぎて密集し、お客さん同士がぶつかることが多々あり残念と感じました。

I realized my dream of swimming with dolphins. 憧れのイルカと泳ぐを実現しました

Reviewed by: Okana

After being picked up at the hotel early in the morning, we received a tour briefing from the tour photographer and driver until we headed to the bus. There were quite a few participants that day, so the group was split into two buses. On the boat, there were some very energetic guides, just as mentioned in the reviews, who kept us entertained throughout the trip. Unfortunately, we only saw dolphins once. There were so many people that it was a struggle to swim with the guides. I felt that I would like to participate when there are fewer people. However, it wasn't that we didn't see anything at all; I was really happy when I saw a dolphin swim right underneath me. The snorkeling didn't feature the colorful fish that you often see in pictures, and I didn't encounter any sea turtles, but it was my first time swimming surrounded by so many fish, and I really enjoyed it. I felt a bit seasick towards the end and wasn't feeling well, but I was able to enjoy the slide and cheeseburgers. It seemed that there were so many people that activities like stand-up paddleboarding weren't mentioned at all, and only the slide was available. If you want to do those activities, it might be a good idea to communicate that clearly to the guides. It felt like the time went by very quickly, but personally, I was at my physical limit, so I was satisfied with that. However, I thought it would be nice if there were tours that allowed for a more leisurely pace with breaks to enjoy the ocean.

早朝ホテルでピックアップされた後、バスで向かうまで、ツアーのフォトグラファーと運転手さんからツアーの説明を受けました。この日は参加者がかなり多く、バスが2台に別れているとのことでした。船には口コミにあったようにかなりハイテンションなガイドさんたちがいて、終始楽しませてくれました。イルカは残念ながら一度しか見られなかったです。人が多すぎてガイドさんと一緒に泳ぐのも必死でした。もう少し人数が少ない時に参加したいと感じました。それでも全く見れないということもなく、イルカが自分の真下を通っていくのを見れた時は本当に嬉しかったです。シュノーケリングはよく写真で見るようなカラフルな魚という感じではなかったし、ウミガメにも出会えなかったけれど、たくさんのお魚に囲まれて泳ぐのが初めてでとても楽しめました。少し船酔い気味で最後は気分が悪かったですが、スライダーやチーズバーガーも楽しむことができました。サップなどのアクティビティは人が多かったからなのか、全く案内されず、スライダーしか用意されていませんでした。やりたい場合はきちんとガイドさんにお伝えしておくと良いのかもしれません。かなりあっという間に感じましたが、個人的には体力的にあのくらいで限界だったので納得することができましたが、もっとゆっくり時間をかけて休憩も挟みながら海を楽しむことができるツアーがあってもよいのかなぁと思いました。

Swim with Wild Dolphins Cruise

Reviewed by: Tammy Jarvis

Our activity was rescheduled by the company for a 3 days later which we received a gift for our inconvenience. When we arrived we quickly realized that there were going to be many people going. I was expecting a much smaller group. Our family of 5 decided to ride on the upper deck and had the best time. Our main guide was Oliver who was very friendly and funny. He made our experience very enjoyable. The entire crew was friendly as well. The Captain proceeded to try to find dolphins. Much to our dismay he was unable to locate them but he drove all over trying his best to locate them. With the changes in the water with the hurricane 1300 miles away the dolphins had retreated to deeper waters. This didn't take away from our very fun experience. We were able to snorkel for a good amount of time where we did see a turtle. Other water activities were available as well. There were 2 photographers on board.. 1 which was in the water as well. We were fed lunch very efficiently and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. We were treated to 2 hula dancers which was a lot of fun. I would recommend this experience to anyone. A great
crew and a fun adventure!

Swim with Dolphins and Snorkel Review

Reviewed by: John

Overall this was not one of the better snorkel experiences. The boat was too crowded, with 61 snorkelers. The right size for the boat should have been about 40. Especially crowded at the start where people were not allowed on the top deck when leaving port.

The crew try their best to provide a good time. They are energetic and enthusiastic.

Food option was another issue. Basically you get either a cheeseburger or veggie cheeseburger. No other choices. I hate cheese. Since food is pre-made, there is no opportunity for a simple hamburger. Drinks are either water or watered down lemonade, served in tiny cups. Should have had more variety and larger cups. You also can get a bag of chips.

Swimming with the dolphin is basically everyone jump in the water, look down to see a couple dolphins swim by, and then jump right back in the boat.

Snorkeling was not rushed, but the site did not have many fish or varieties of fish.

Water slide was fun. Much more fun than snorkeling.

The tour itself was just okay, but... ツアー自体はまあまあですが・・・

Reviewed by: ほんだびーと

There was a bit of trouble with the operating company at the meeting point. We arrived at the meeting location more than five minutes before the scheduled time. Then, a flashy bus with the "Dolphin & You" logo passed right in front of us, and thinking we had been left behind, we hurried to chase after it, but it just kept going. Since we had minimal luggage and didn't have our smartphones, we had no choice but to return to the hotel, where we received a call from the operating company... They said they had come to pick us up at the meeting point but since we weren't there, we could no longer participate in the tour.

Actually, the bus we chased after was a different bus picking up Western guests, while Japanese guests were supposed to be picked up by a smaller van (a plain white bus without the operating company's name or logo), which apparently arrived quite late on the day of the tour. Despite this, the operating company said, "Since this is a cancellation on your part, we cannot issue a refund. If you want to participate, please take a taxi to the harbor." I thought it was unreasonable to ask us to take a taxi to a location that takes an hour by car, and when I expressed my frustration asking, "Is this really our responsibility???" they reluctantly agreed to send someone to pick us up.

On the morning of the tour, a confirmation call was made to the hotel, but the staff member was not fluent in Japanese and did not provide detailed information during the prior call. Therefore, I recommend confirming what kind of bus will come to pick you up on the day of the tour.

Once we got on the boat, I thought the staff members were very kind and helpful. There were also staff members who spoke Japanese fluently. They were very high-energy, which might be a bit overwhelming if you’re feeling unwell. In my case, I think the strong winds contributed to my discomfort, and I felt that snorkeling might be tough for small children... My child cried a lot during the first attempt and couldn't handle it. Dolphins can only be seen underwater as dark shadows, so it might be better for children to see them from the boat.

I also brought an underwater camera, but it's quite difficult unless you're a good swimmer. Regarding clothing, I wore a rash guard and tights, and I think that was sufficient without needing to rent a wetsuit (the rental wetsuits are short types). As for belongings, you should definitely borrow a bath towel from the hotel and bring it with you. It can get a bit chilly on the way back, so it's better to take off wet rash guards and dry off with the bath towel before putting on a dry shirt.

As for tipping, which can be confusing for Japanese people, it didn't seem like it was strictly enforced. The Q&A section on the operating company's website also mentions that a small gesture is sufficient. I hope this information is helpful to everyone.

集合時に運営会社と少しとトラブルになりました。
私たちは集合場所に待ち合わせ時間の5分以上前から来ていました。
すると「ドルフィン＆ユー」のロゴが描かれた派手めのバスが目の前を通り過ぎてしまったので、置いて行かれたと思い、慌てて追いかけたのですが、そのまま行ってしまいました。
荷物も最小限で、スマホも持っていなかったので、仕方なくホテルに戻ったところ、運営会社から電話が・・・。集合場所にピックアップにきたが、いないのでもうツアーには参加できないとのことでした。
実は我々が追いかけたバスは、欧米人客を拾っていく別便のバスで、日本人客はそれよりは小さいバンのようなバス（運営会社名もロゴもない、真っ白なバスです）が拾っていくことになってたらしいのですが、当日それが待ち合わせ時間よりもかなり遅れてきたのです。
・・・にも関わらず、運営会社がいうには、「そちらの都合のキャンセルなので、返金には応じられない。参加したければ、タクシーでハーバーまで来てください。」とのことでした。
車で1時間もかかるところに、タクシーで来いというのもどうかと思いますし、さすがに「それってこちらの責任なのですか？？？」と憤ったところ、渋々なんとか迎えにきてくれました。

当日の朝に確認の電話がホテルに掛かってきますが、そのときのスタッフは日本語が堪能ではなく、事前の電話でそこまで詳細な情報までは教えてはくれませんでした。
ですので、当日はどんなバスが迎えにくるのかを必ず確認された方がいいと思います。
　
船に乗ってからは、スタッフの皆さんとても親切で良かったと思います。
日本語がとても流暢なスタッフもいました。
とてもハイテンションなので、気分が悪くなるとちょっとしんどいかもしれません。
私の場合は、結構風が強かったのも原因かと思いますが、シュノーケリングは小さいお子さんは厳しいかも・・・という印象でした。
うちの子は、1回目で大泣きでダメでした。
イルカは水中で見ても、黒い影のようにしか見えないので、子供は船上で見た方がいいかもしれません。
あと水中カメラを持っていきましたが、泳ぎが得意な方でないとなかなか難しいです。
あと服装ですが、私はラッシュカードとタイツをはいて行きましたが、ウエットスーツ（貸しウエットスーツは短パンタイプです）を借りなくても、これで十分だと思いました。
荷物としては、バスタオルはホテルで借りて必ず持っていくべきでしょう。やはり帰りはちょっと寒いので、ぬれたラッシュガードなどは脱いで、バスタオルで体を拭って、乾いたシャツ等を着る方がいいと思います。

日本人が戸惑うチップですが、そんなにきっちり払っている感じはなかったです。運営会社HPのQ&Aにも書いてありますが、気持ち程度でいいと思います。
皆さんの参考になればと思います。

I went snorkeling for the first time. To be honest, I'm not a good swimmer and I was scared of not being able to touch the ground, but since I came all the way to Hawaii, I thought I should give it a try at least once. The ocean was so beautiful, and it was a lot of fun swimming while looking at the underwater scenery. I didn't see any dolphins on the first try, and on the second try, I was too tired and just watched from the boat.

For lunch, they give you a hamburger, and you can add tomatoes, lettuce, ketchup, and mustard while sitting down, so you don't have to worry. The hamburgers and snacks were delicious, and the view was stunning—it was the best! Many people got seasick, so I strongly recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance if you're worried about that.

初めてシュノーケリングをしました。
実は泳ぐのが苦手で地に足が着かないのも怖くて嫌だったのですが、せっかくハワイに来たので1回くらい…と思って参加しました。
海がとても綺麗で、海の中を見ながら泳げてとても楽しかったです。
1回目ではイルカが見れず、2回目は体力がなくて船の上から見ました(^^;
お昼のハンバーガーは貰ってからトマトやレタス、ケチャップやマスタードをつけてくれるので座ってて大丈夫です。
ハンバーガーもスナックも美味しいし景色も綺麗で最高でした！
船酔いする方が多かったので、心配な方は事前に酔い止めを飲むのを強くオススメします。

I was a bit anxious about participating alone since most people were in pairs, but the crew members were all really nice, and I'm glad I joined. I got to see dolphins and swimming honu (turtles), which really boosted my excitement! I also challenged myself to try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). It was quite difficult, but I managed to stand up and paddle (^ -^)v.

The cheeseburger on the boat was delicious, and I was really happy to see hula up close (since I’m learning hula). I was on cloud nine (laughs). I want to participate again! (*^o^*)

大体が2人での参加の中、1人参加で不安でしたが、クルーの皆さんがホンマに良い人ばかりで、参加して良かったです。イルカも泳いでるホヌ(亀)も見れてテンションup⤴︎そして、体験してみたかったSUPにも挑戦。結構難しかったですが、何とか立てて漕げました(^-^)v
