The water at Hanauma Bay was crystal clear—it was the perfect location where every angle looked like a postcard! There were so many colorful fish, and I’m really happy with the professional-quality underwater photos the instructor took for me♪ I can’t wait to post them on social media☆

It was a wonderful experience. Since it’s a small-group tour, the instructor can give everyone individual attention, so you can enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind. The underwater photos also made for great souvenirs. It’s a fantastic tour that lets you fully enjoy Hawaii’s beautiful natural scenery.

The crystal-clear blue sea completely washed away my daily fatigue... Swimming alongside the fish felt just like a dream... Thanks to the Japanese-language support, it was a wonderful time where I could simply let the scenery soothe me.

I took part in this tour while traveling with my husband. I’ll never forget the view we saw together in the beautiful ocean. Since the tour was conducted in Japanese, we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves. The shuttle was a little chilly, so it might be a good idea to bring something to wear over your clothes.

I had used a different package when I visited Hawaii before, and this time I chose this one. As always, the staff were wonderful, and I felt completely at ease putting myself in their hands. I was able to fully enjoy the beautiful coral reefs and fish, and this trip was another wonderful memory.

The snorkeling at Hanauma Bay was more beautiful than I had imagined. The Japanese instructor was very attentive and made us feel at ease. I was very satisfied with the gift of underwater photo as a good souvenir.

I joined the Hanauma Bay snorkeling tour and it was truly an amazing experience. I am very grateful to Kaoru, our guide. She was very attentive to our physical condition and safety, and we were able to enjoy the snorkeling without worries. Above all, thanks to Kaoru's cheerful and kind personality, I was able to relax from start to finish. The beauty of Hanauma Bay, the transparency of the ocean, and the encounters with the fishes were very moving. It was a special time for me to truly feel the wonder of nature. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is considering a tour. I think it will be a safe, enjoyable, and memorable experience.

Mr. Daishi A truly enjoyable time! Thank you very much. My 77 year old mother was scared at first when she went snorkeling for the first time, but thanks to Mr. Daishi's kind and attentive guide, she had a great time. After returning to the hotel, she kept excitedly talking about how much fun she had and how beautiful the ocean was. We also appreciated that he took us to a donut shop and explained in detail about my mother's favorite flowers along the way. Thanks to you, it was a very valuable experience. Next time we plan to visit Oahu to celebrate my mother's US birthday. On that occasion, we would like to ask you to take us sightseeing on Oahu as well. Once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Please give my best regards to your wife.

She said she wanted to go far away by herself next time! I'm amazed at how cautious they are! Thank you so much for your generous support (thank you)! It was a great souvenir! I hope we can see the seals next time... Thank you so very, very much😊.

Thank you so much for your help in Hawaii! Thank you for all the great photos and videos. It had been 60 years since she had been in the ocean, and she couldn't believe she was about to go swimming! I was so grateful for your full support for my mother, who was struggling at the beginning of the trip. I had a hard time in the beginning, but with your help, I got used to it and was able to enjoy it. Thank you for the wonderful memories! Maybe I will see you next time at the Honolulu Marathon. Enjoy your running life as well!

My husband and I participated together. We were a little nervous at first, but the instructor was so kind and attentive that we were able to relax and get into the water. Afterward, we spent a wonderful time admiring the beautiful coral reefs. The service was absolutely top-notch, from the transportation to the photo service. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who’s on the fence.

The fish in Hanauma Bay were so colorful and cute~♪ The shuttle service was smooth, and having the guide explain everything in Japanese made me feel so much more at ease☆ You even get to take home photos, so if you're on the fence, you should definitely give it a try!

It had been a while since I’d been to the ocean, so I wasn’t confident in my physical abilities and was a bit nervous, but since it was a small group, I received great support. The instructions were given carefully in Japanese, so even as a beginner, I had no trouble at all and really enjoyed myself. I was soothed by the beautiful ocean and left feeling completely satisfied.

The tour was well-organized, so I was able to enjoy myself without any stress. The included transportation was also a huge help. The lessons in Japanese were clear and helpful. I’ll definitely use this service again when I visit Hawaii.

I was worried that my youngest child might be afraid of the ocean, but thanks to the staff, who gently guided him at his own pace, he was smiling in no time. Seeing so many colorful fish as a family was a truly wonderful memory. We were also delighted to receive the underwater photos as a gift.

We participated as a family. The small class size meant the instructor could give everyone individual attention, which made us feel at ease. It was great that transportation was provided, so we didn’t have to worry about getting there. If I had to nitpick, it would have been perfect if the changing area had been a little more spacious.
