When we arrived at the port and got off the shuttle bus, a veteran staff member, who apparently was in charge of middle school groups, abruptly announced that he would be switching places with the guide in charge of university groups. This surprised guide B, who was in charge of the university group. This staff member, although Japanese, has been in Hawaii for so long that he seems to have lost touch with the sensibilities of Japanese travelers, making him come off as annoying to those visiting from Japan.
Because of the sudden change in responsibility, the questions we had from the bus were not passed on, and despite having communicated that we were not confident swimmers, we were left unattended. It was mentioned that there would be souvenirs, but neither adults nor children received anything. We opted for the package that included snorkeling, SUP, and canoeing, but it only lasted about 20 minutes. At this rate, we might as well have gone with the middle school option. The difference in price was wasted.
We did see dolphins, but that was just due to good timing and not because of this company. Next time, I will choose a different tour company.
港に着いて送迎バスを降りたらいきなり中学担当だったらしいベテランスタッフAが、大学担当のガイドと入れ替わると言い放った。
これには大学担当のガイドBもビックリしていました。
このA、日本人だけど長年ハワイにいて日本人の感覚が麻痺しちゃってるのか、日本から来た旅行者にはウザく感じる。
急に担当変更するから、バスの中での質問事項が引き継がれておらず、泳ぎに自信がないと伝えていたのに放置。
お土産付きとあったが大人も子供も貰えず。
シュノーケル.SUP.カヌー付きにしたのに合わせて20分程度で終了。これなら中学でよかった。中学との差額が無駄だった。
イルカには会えたけどそれはこの会社のお陰ではなく、タイミングが良かっただけであって、次回は他のツアー会社を選びます。

This was my first time participating with my mother and my children, aged 3 and 7. I thought my 3-year-old might not be able to handle the dolphin swimming, but when we arrived at the spot, everyone dove into the sea! The 3-year-old was held by a staff member and got to see dolphins and sea turtles, and even ride on a paddleboard, which made them incredibly happy! The staff were all friendly and kept the kids entertained. We encountered dozens of dolphins, many sea turtles, and even baby turtles, making it the best day of our lives. The kids are now excitedly saying they want to join the manta ray program next time! Thank you to all the staff! I will definitely participate again next time!
今回初めて母と私と3歳と7歳の子供連れで参加しましたが3歳の子はドルフィンスイミングは無理かなぁと思いながらポイントに着くと全員海にダイブ!3歳の子はスタッフの方に抱っこされてイルカ、ウミガメを見せてもらったりパドルボードに乗せてもらって凄く喜んでました❗スタッフの皆さんがフレンドリーで子供達を楽しませてくれて何10頭ものイルカ先生、何匹ものウミガメ先生や赤ちゃん亀にも出会えて人生で一番最高な日になりました子供達は、次はマンタ大学にも参加したいと大騒ぎしています❗

I was given motion sickness medication, and there was a restroom on the boat. It was great to see dolphins swimming right below us and schools of them passing in front of us. However, it was confusing to be dropped off at a snorkeling spot where there was nothing to see, and the photographer was unnaturally energetic, which was a bit annoying. I think a more assertive approach might create good memories for couples. Overall, it was nice to see the dolphins.
酔い止めを渡され、船内にトイレもありました。イルカが真下を泳いでいたり、目の前を通る群れを見れてよかったです。ただ、シュノーケルのスポットは何もいないのに降ろされて意味不明だったのと、カメラマンが常に不自然な程テンションが高くめんどくさかったです。多少強引な方が、カップルさんとかは良い思い出になると思います。内容的にはイルカが見れてよかったです。

I participated with my 8-year-old child. It was our first experience with snorkeling, and we were a bit anxious, but thanks to the guidance from the staff and their encouragement to look down, we were able to see dolphins multiple times. After that, we moved to a turtle spot, and the boat was two stories high, offering an amazing view from above. My child was thrilled to slide into the sea, and we were able to see turtles as well. There was also canoeing, making it a packed experience. I feel like we were both spiritually and physically rejuvenated. This became a lifelong memory for us. I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises.
8歳の子供と二人で参加しました。
親子共々シュノーケリングは初めての経験で不安がありましたが、スタッフの方々の誘導と下見て〜の声かけで、イルカを何度もみることができました。
その後は場所を変えてウミガメスポットへ移動、船は二階建てになっており、上からの眺めは最高です。

The moment I got on the bus early in the morning while still feeling sleepy, Michael (the photographer) was so high-energy that it shook off my drowsiness. Listening to our guide Natsumi's explanations made the travel time fly by.
The crew on the boat was also lively and cheerful, and at first, I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to keep up, but by the time we were heading back, I was completely hooked. The staff was dedicated to finding dolphins, and we had two dolphin dives where I got to swim with many dolphins right beneath me.
This tour was incredibly fun. Every time our eyes met, the staff would engage with us. Especially Michael, who, despite being a photographer, really energized everyone. I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was a refreshing and immensely satisfying experience. I definitely want to participate again.
朝早くまだ眠い中バスに乗った瞬間、マイコー(フォトグラファー)のハイテンションに眠気もさめガイドのナツミさんの説明を聞きながらあっという間の移動時間でした。
船のクルーたちも皆元気で明るくテンション高く、最初はついていけないかな?とちょっと不安もありましたが、帰るころにはすっかりはまってました。

Waking up early was worth it! When we participated, we quickly got to see dolphins, and it seemed like we were close to the snorkeling spot, so we could stay in the water for a long time. We also got to see sea turtles! Since there were a lot of people, I thought some might find it a bit hard to see the dolphins and turtles when everyone gathered around. The staff were all cheerful, and we had a great time (^_^) The ocean was very beautiful too!
There were also slides from the SUP and the boat, and they played the ukulele for us, finishing with a group hula dance, which was a lot of fun. We had a very fulfilling time! For those who are not good at swimming, I think they provide something like a floatation device, so that should be reassuring.
It took about an hour by bus from Waikiki to the ocean, so I thought it would be wise to take motion sickness medication. For lunch, we had cheeseburgers this time! They also prepared snacks, juice, and water!
早起きした甲斐がありました!
私たちが参加した時はイルカにもすぐ会えて、シュノーケリングスポットの近くだったようなので長い間海にいることができました。ウミガメにも会えました!人数が多いのでイルカや亀がいると全員が集まってくるので少し見づらい方も中にはいるかなと思いました。スタッフの皆さんも陽気な方ばかりで楽しく過ごすことが出来ました(^_^)海もとても綺麗でした!
SUPや船から滑り台もあり、ウクレレも弾いてくれて最後は全員でフラダンス笑。とても充実した時間を過ごすことができました!泳ぐのが苦手な方は浮くことのできる棒のようなものを渡してくれるはずなので安心かなと思います。
ワイキキから海までバスの時間が1時間?位あったので酔い止め飲んでた方が安心だなと思いました。
お昼ご飯は今回はチーズバーガーでした!スナックとジュース、お水も準備してくれてます!
Thank you for participating! I'm curious about your thoughts on the "bouncy sea."

This was my second time on this tour. I participated on April 28, right in the middle of Golden Week. I was originally scheduled to join on the 27th, but there was some trouble with the ship that day, and it couldn’t depart, so I had to join the next day.
The last time I went, two years ago, I participated alone, but this time I was with someone else. During the previous trip, we found dolphins about 20 minutes after departure and spent a long time snorkeling with them and even got to see turtles up close. I was hoping for a similar experience this time!
Maybe the weather wasn’t great? This time, it took a while to find the dolphins, and we searched from the boat for about an hour before the dolphins finally noticed us and came into view! Just as we were all set to snorkel and swim with the dolphins, one of my companions got seasick and panicked a bit since it was their first time snorkeling.
They decided to give up after just 10 minutes in the water. They told me to go ahead and enjoy, but I couldn’t just leave them alone on the boat while I had fun! (As a guy, I felt I had to support the girl properly!)
I felt a bit regretful, but we were able to spot dolphins from the boat, and they even came quite close at one point. Just being able to see the dolphins made my companion happy.
Despite the ups and downs, we ended with some fun commemorative photos, and I realized how enjoyable it is to see dolphins! Even though we were at a distance, they were so cute! I’m already looking forward to planning to join again in two years!
今回で2度目のこのツアー。
ゴールデンウィークの真っ最中の4月28日に参加しました。
本当は27日の参加予定だったのですが、その日の船がトラブル?
で出港不能となり、翌日に改めての参加となったのですけどね。
前回は2年前に一人で参加したのですが、今回は二人での参加。
前回は出港後、20分ほど?でイルカが見つかり長い時間シュノーケルで
イルカを見たり、亀を間近で見れたりもしたのです。
今回もそうなると良いな!と、思いながらの参加です。
少し、天気も良くないってのもあったのかな?
今回はなかなかイルカが見つからず、船の上から探すこと
1時間ぐらい? ようやくイルカがこちらに気づいて?見つかってくれました!
さっそく、みんなでシュノーケル!でイルカと泳ぐぞ!!って時に・・・
一緒に行った人が、船酔いもしたのと初めてシュノーケルで少しパニくって
しまって><
海に入ってわずか10分で、断念。連れは私はいいから見てきて!って
言ってくれたのだけど、一人船の上に放置して自分だけ楽しむわけにも
行かないじゃないですか!
(一応、男子としては女子をしっかりとサポートせねば!w)
少し、心残りはありましたが、船の上から一緒にイルカを探しながら
遠めでもイルカは見れましたし、途中船のすぐ近くにも来てくれた。
そんなイルカを見ることができて、それだけでも連れは喜んでくれてました。
なんやかや、すったもんだありましたが、最後は楽しく記念撮影なんかもして
やはり、イルカを見ることって楽しいな!そして遠めだったけど、イルカは

The bus attendant was bright and entertaining, which really lifted our spirits even though it was early in the morning, making the time before seeing the dolphins very enjoyable. The foreign instructors who joined us on the boat could speak a little Japanese, so we were able to communicate and had a lot of fun.
Our group struggled to see the dolphins, but everyone persevered and took us to a spot where we finally saw them on the fifth try! We didn't have time for snorkeling because we were running late, but normally, they split into groups for snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and kayaking afterward.
We ended with everyone dancing the hula, which was a wonderful way to finish! I had such a fulfilling time. Plus, since it was an early morning plan, we had plenty of time for sightseeing in the afternoon! I was able to enjoy Hawaii to the fullest! ^_^
バスの添乗員さんは朝早かったのにテンションを上げてくれるような明るさと面白さで、イルカを見る前からすごく楽しく過ごせました。
船に一緒に乗ってくれた外国人のインストラクターの方々も、日本語を少し話せるのでコミュニケーションが取れて楽しかったです。
私たちの回はイルカを見るのに苦戦しましたが、皆さんが諦めずにイルカが見えるスポットまで連れて行ってくださり5回目でやっとイルカを見ることが出来ました!
時間が押していたのでシュノーケリングの時間は無かったですが、本来だったらシュノーケリングをしたあとにサップとカヤック組に分かれてやるそうです。

I decided to skip snorkeling because I caught a cold. I thought it was a waste since I paid a lot of money, but it turned out to be totally fine!
While others went snorkeling, my husband and I had the boat almost to ourselves! Plus, a pod of dolphins swam right underneath the boat, and we had such a wonderful time. During the activity time, the guide strongly encouraged us to try kayaking, and I was quite hesitant, but it turned out to be really fun, and I'm glad I did it. My bottom got wet, but it dried quickly, and I hardly felt cold at all. After snorkeling, some people were shivering from the cold or looking pale from seasickness, so I think warm clothing (even a bit excessive) and motion sickness medication are essential.
The staff was very energetic, and we all sang songs together and even danced the hula at the end, which was a lot of fun! Most participants seemed to be in their 20s to 30s. However, I think it's a tour that can be enjoyed even if you're not young, if you have kids, or even if you're feeling a bit under the weather—it's definitely enjoyable without snorkeling! I would love to participate again next time!
風邪を引いてしまったので、シュノーケルはやめることにしました。高いお金を払っているのにもったいないなーと思っていましたが、全然そんなことなかったです!
他の方がシュノーケルに行っている間、船は主人と2人でほぼ貸し切り状態!しかも、イルカの群れがちょうど船の真下を通ってくれて、ほんっとに素敵な時間を過ごせました。アクティビティの時間には、ガイドさんがカヤックを勧めてくれて、かなり強引に勧められて結構悩んだのですが、とっても楽しくてやってよかったです。お尻は濡れたけどすぐに乾いて寒さを感じることはほぼありませんでした。シュノーケル後は、寒さで震えたり、酔って青白くなっておらる方もいらっしゃったので、防寒対策(ちょっと過度なぐらいでもいいかも)と酔い止めは必須だと思います。
スタッフの方のテンションが高くて、みんなで歌を歌ったり、最後にフラを踊ったり、とても楽しかったです!参加者は2~30代がほとんどだと思います。でも、若くなくてもお子様連れでも少々風邪を引いていても、シュノーケルなしでも十分に楽しめるツアーだと思いました!次回も是非参加したいです!

This was my second time participating. Last time, I was able to see a lot of dolphins, but this time we saw them right after leaving the harbor, which made it easier on my body since I didn't have to be on the boat for a long time! The staff were also very friendly, and before I knew it, I was having fun with them!
Seeing dolphins jump right in front of me, swimming underneath me, and circling around me was an experience that I could never have in my daily life, and it was truly healing. The wetsuits are available for an additional fee, but I definitely recommend renting one.
2回目の参加でした。
前回もたくさんイルカを見ることが出来たのですが、今回はハーバーから出てすぐのところで見ることが出来、長時間船に乗ることもなく身体が楽でした!スタッフの方もとってもフレンドリーで気付けば一緒にはしゃいでしまいます!
イルカが目の前でジャンプしたり、自分の下を泳いでいたり、自分の周りをぐるぐる泳いでいたり、日常では絶対体験できない体験にただただ癒されます。

Since it was my first time participating, I joined with excitement about how it would be. It was winter in Hawaii, so the wind was cold and chilly. When we spotted dolphins from the boat, everyone jumped in at once, pointing out where to look, and we were able to see many dolphins. I saw dolphins in the distance, but my family seemed to have dolphins swimming right underneath them. After that, we also encountered sea turtles. I was happy to feel the staff's strong desire to ensure we met the dolphins. Additionally, they kept the atmosphere lively on the boat, which is a great memory. Next time, I want to go during a warmer season.
初めての参加だったのでどんな風に見るのかワクワクしながら参加しました。
ハワイの冬という時期だったので風が冷たく寒かったーー。
船上でイルカを見つけると皆さん一斉に飛込み、見る方向を教えてくれ、たくさんのイルカを見ることができました。
私は遠くにイルカを見ましたが家族は真下をイルカが通ったようです。
そのあとはウミガメにも遭遇しました。
スタッフの方が絶対にイルカに会わせてあげようという気持ちが伝わってきて嬉しく思いました。また、船上で飽きないように盛り上げてくれたのもいい思い出です。今度は暖かい時期に行きたいな。

As soon as we left the port, without even having time to prepare, we encountered a pod of dolphins! After diving in and enjoying that, we also saw sea turtles and stingrays. I never expected to see a whale before heading back after playing on the SUP. When it was really time to go back, I realized that my digital camera, which the captain had around his neck, was missing... Even though I said, "It's okay," everyone helped look for it in the water. Within five minutes, Maiko found it, and everything was a surprise! Thank you, everyone.
港を出てすぐ、準備をする暇もなくイルカの群れがーっ!急いで飛び込み堪能したところでウミガメ、エイも登場。
SUPで遊んで帰港する前にクジラまで見られるなんて思いもしませんでした。
で、ホントに帰るとなった時にキャプテンが首からかけていた私のデジカメが無いことに気付いて…
「もういいよー」と言っているのに皆で海の中を探してくれました。
5分もしないうちにマイコーが見つけてくれて、何もかもがサプライズ!
みなさんありがとうございました。
Thank you for participating in the tour. It seems like it was a lucky tour where you could see rays as well. We look forward to having you join us again next time!

I encountered wild dolphins.
I found a mother and baby dolphin in the pod, and they were very cute.
The tour guide and the crew were incredibly cheerful and it was a lot of fun.
I was worried about getting seasick, but the enjoyable atmosphere made it completely fine.
The hamburger on the boat was also very delicious.
However, the water was colder than I expected.
I think it's a good idea to bring a rash guard.
It was a very good experience.
野生のイルカに出会えました。
群れの中に親子のイルカを見つけましたが、とてもかわいかったです。
ツアーガイドさんも船のクルーの方たちもすごぐ明るくて楽しかったです。
心配していた船酔いも楽しい雰囲気だったので全く大丈夫でした。
船の上でのハンバーガーもとてもおいしかったです。
ただ、海の中は思ってたより寒かったです。
ラッシュガードを持参した方がいいと思います。
とても良い体験でした。

The tour took place in Hawaii under unusually low and rough weather conditions. Right after departure, many people started feeling seasick, but it turned out to be a lucky day, as we encountered a large pod of dolphins that swam leisurely beside us and even surfaced, which the crew described as a miracle. During snorkeling after the dolphins, we also had the rare chance to see a ray.
The weather changed rapidly, with rain, sunshine, and clouds, but thanks to that, we were able to see a double rainbow. The strong winds made it difficult to stop shivering on the boat. There was no place to change out of wet swimsuits, so we had to dry off with towels and put on a jacket while still wet. Those who are not confident in the cold should be cautious on cloudy days. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend starting with a shorter dolphin tour.
ハワイでは滅多にない気温が低く荒れ気味の天候の元でのツアーでした。出航直後から船酔いする人続出でしたが、イルカの大群に出会えた上、イルカ達がずっと私達のそばを悠々と泳いだり、水面に浮かび上がって来たりすらクルー曰く奇跡のようなラッキーデーでした。イルカの後の亀とシュノーケリングの際も珍しくエイに出会えたりしました。
途中雨が降り、晴れ間が出たり曇ったりと目まぐるしく天気が変わりましたがお陰でダブルレインボーまで見られました。
風が強くて船上で体の震えが止まらず辛かったです。濡れた水着を着替える場所は無いのでタオルで拭いて濡れたまま上に上着を羽織るしかありません。寒さに自信のない人は曇りの日は要注意です。船酔いの心配な人はまずは時間の短いイルカ中学に入学する事をお勧めします。
The weather in Hawaii is very changeable. One delightful feature of this is that you can often see rainbows. Sometimes, you can even catch a beautiful double rainbow forming a perfect semicircle on the horizon. In Hawaii, the strong sunlight can make cloudy days or windy conditions feel much cooler, so please remember to prepare for the cold!
ハワイの天気はとても変わりやすいです。
その効果で虹が多く見られるのは嬉しい特徴ですね。
水平線上に綺麗に半円のダブルレインボーなんかも見れることがあります。
ハワイでは日差しが強い分、曇りの日や風が吹くととても体感が下がるので、皆さん忘れずに防寒対策をお願いします!

I was worried about whether I would be able to see any animals since they are wild, but I was surprised to encounter so many dolphins. I was hoping to be lucky and see whales as well, given the season, but unfortunately, I didn't see any.
At this time of year, it can be cold while moving on the boat, so it's better to have something to wear over your clothes.
Next time, I want to challenge myself to see whales.
自然の生き物なので観れるかどうか不安でしたがびっくりするほどたくさんのイルカと出会えました。季節柄クジラも見られるとラッキーだと期待してましたが残念ながら観られませんでした。
いまの時期は船上での移動中は寒いので羽織ものがあった方が良いです。
次はクジラにチャレンジしたいと思ってます。
Aloha,
Next time, please come to see the great whale teacher for a revenge meeting!
We are looking forward to it.

Aloha
次回、ぜひクジラ大先生にリベンジで会いにきてくださいね!
お待ちしております。

Last year, I participated in a tour swimming with dolphins from another company, but this time I joined Dolphin University.
On this day, it was quite difficult to find a spot where the dolphin pod was gathering, but once the snorkeling point was confirmed, I enjoyed watching the dolphins swim right by my feet.
During snorkeling, the staff guides you to where the dolphins are, but those who swim slowly might not make it in time. My fourth-grade son was able to keep up easily.
The slide set up from the boat after snorkeling was also fun, and we got to play on it multiple times.
It's a good idea to bring an action cam for underwater filming.
去年は他社のイルカと一緒に泳ぐツアーに参加しましたが、今回はイルカ大学に参加しました。
この日はイルカの群れが集まっている場所がなかなか見つかりませんでしたが、シュノーケリングポイントが確定してからはイルカの群れが足元を泳いでいくのが楽しめました。
シュノーケリング中にイルカのいる場所までスタッフのみなさんが誘導してくれますが、泳ぎの遅い方は間に合わないかもしれません。
小学4年生の息子は余裕で間に合っていました。
シュノーケリング後にボートから設営されるスライダーも楽しく何度も遊ばせてもらいました。
水中で撮影できるアクションカムを持っていくと良いですよ。

I participated with my 7-year-old son.
While experiencing the nature and culture of Hawaii from the boat, we encountered three teachers: the dolphin, the whale, and the sea turtle.
My son was super excited by the whale teacher's splash.
We also met many of our favorite green sea turtle teachers.
We had a hard time finding the dolphin teacher, but we finally met just before returning to the harbor and swam with it, even though it was a bit far away.
Thanks to the staff, my son was able to experience all the activities.
I lack physical strength, but thanks to the staff, my son had an unforgettable experience.
I don't know when the next time will be, but I want to build my stamina for a re-enrollment at Dolphin University.
7歳の息子と二人で参加。
船上からのハワイの自然、文化に触れながら先生たちの元へ、
イルカ。クジラ。ウミガメ。三先生に出会えました。
クジラ先生のスプラッシュに息子大興奮。
大好きなアオウミガメ先生にもたくさんであいました。
イルカ先生にはなかなか会えず帰港間際に出会え、少々遠いながらも一緒にドルフィンスイム。
息子、アクティビティーもスタッフの皆様のおかげですべて体験できました。
私は体力がなくスタッフ皆様のおかげで息子が一生の思い出となる経験ができました。
次回はいつになるかわかりませんがイルカ大学再入学のために母は体力をつけたいと思います。
