The captain and his companion were very nice answering all our questions. It was a windy day, so our family were the only ones on the boat, we saw some fishes and lots of corals, and learned some new things about different fish in Hawaii. The turtles were kond of hiding thought, but the captain made every effort on finding at least one for us, so we got to see it on the surface taking a few breaths.
Thank you,

I could see the magnificent history of volcanoes from the past known only to the creator of the Earth up to today, June 27, 2019. The overlapping rivers created by the old and new lava flows from Kilauea, swallowing everything—human activities, roads, and fields—what incredible power. I could see how the lava flows that poured into the sea expanded this island. The awe of nature's power is evident. And the black sand beach that formed is perhaps a joke-filled gift from the gods to humanity. Next, at Kobaruyama, time transformed the lava into fertile soil that nurtures lush trees, and erosion created breathtaking canyons and waterfalls that drop 400 meters—these stunning views were experienced by the helicopter guests. Finally, the awareness and proactivity of the island's people in coexisting with the volcanoes, as shared by pilot Mochizuki, will likely stay with me for life, as I lead a rather ordinary existence. Moreover, this first helicopter tour of my life allowed me to witness the Earth's activities from a bird's-eye view. It may sound a bit exaggerated, but it changed my perspective on life.
地球の創造者しか知り得ない過去から2019.06.27の今日に至るまでの火山が織り成す壮大な歴史が見えた。キラウエアから生まれた新旧の溶岩流が作り出す重なり合った川、人の営み、道路、畑、すべてを呑み込んで流れた様子、なんという偉力。そして海に流れ込んだ溶岩流がこの島を広げていった様子が一望できる。自然の力の凄さが見える。そしてとったんに出来た黒砂海岸は神さまから人へのジョーク交じりのプレゼントか。次に小原山、時間は溶岩を緑豊かな木々を育む土へと変え、また浸食によって絶景を織り成す渓谷や400mから落ちる滝、これら身震いをしてしまう景色をヘリのゲストは味わった。最後に望月パイロットが語れたこの島の人達の火山との共存意識とその積極性は平凡な日常しか無い私の耳から生涯離れそうもない。それどころかこの人生初のヘリコプター遊覧は地球の営みを鳥の目線で目の当たりに出来た。少し大袈裟かもしれないが人生観を変えた。

This is a winter limited event, so I thought I had to go this time! There were hardly any Japanese people, and the explanations were in English, but I was able to enjoy the atmosphere! As for the whales, I was able to see their tails and spouts, although it was from quite a distance. I think there were quite a few of them. However, I couldn't see them as close as it was mentioned on the reservation site, so that was a bit different from my expectations.
冬季限定だしこれはもう今回行くしかない!…と思い参加しました。日本人はほとんどいなくて説明も英語でしたが、雰囲気で楽しめました!クジラはというと、かなり遠くからではありましたが尾びれや潮吹きを見ることができました。数も結構いたように思います。ただ、予約サイトにあるような近さでは見られなかったのでそこだけ期待と違っていたかな。

Great to look at the stars through the telescope and have explanation of the skies (for a novice like me). Ride up and back to the summit of Mauna Kea was bumpy at times and a little daunting but not nearly as difficult as some made it out to be. Elevation did not bother me.

I was a bit nervous on my first helicopter ride, but with the guidance of the Japanese pilot, I was able to relax and enjoy the journey through the skies. The time spent flying from the ocean to Waipi'o Valley felt like a transition from reality to a divine world, and I found myself in tears from the beauty of nature. Landing at the base of the waterfall, I was overwhelmed with emotion once again, feeling a deep gratitude for being alive. I have become an even bigger fan of the Big Island of Hawaii. I want to tell my friends that they should experience this at least once in their lifetime! Of course, my children and grandchildren will join me next time.

A 9-year-old child participated.
At first, they received lectures about sea turtles in a space next to the lagoon. After that, they had a lecture to interact with dolphins, followed by a hands-on experience in the lagoon.
So, while the time is stated as 20 minutes, that is the time spent interacting with the dolphins; in reality, I think we spent about an hour and a half to two hours in total.
The experience activity is quite pricey, but in return, you receive thorough lectures, and the satisfaction level is high. Since the age range for Kids Quest is 5 to 9 years, I felt it was the last chance for my child at this age, and I'm glad we participated.
All lectures and instructions are in English, but they explain things clearly with gestures, so even children can understand well.
9歳の子どもが参加しました。
はじめはラグーン横のスペースでウミガメなどの講義を受けます。その後イルカとふれあうためのレクチャーを受け、ラグーンでふれあい体験となります。
ですので、時間は20分とありますが、それはイルカとふれあっている時間で、実際には1時間半から2時間程度時間を費やしていたと思います。
体験アクティビティとしてはなかなかのお値段ですが、その分しっかりとレクチャーを受けられ、満足度は高いものです。キッズクエストの対象年齢が5~9歳なので年齢的に最後のチャンスだと思い、参加させて良かったです。
なお、講義やレクチャー等全て英語ですが、ジェスチャーを交えてわかりやすく説明してくれるので、子どもでも十分理解していました。

My wife wanted to play with dolphins, so she participated alone. I didn't join and just watched from the side, but opportunities to interact closely with dolphins are rare. It looked like she was having a great time just watching. When I asked her later, she said it was really fun, and I thought to myself that I should have participated too. It does come with a certain cost, but considering the emotional experience you gain, I think it's worth participating!

Taking a helicopter ride around half of the Big Island offers a rare experience where you can witness "the Earth being alive." Driving this route by car takes over eight hours. The last time I visited, I drove around in a rental car, but it took a long time, and I ended up driving in complete darkness. I decided that next time, I would definitely take a helicopter.
With a helicopter, you can see the Haleakalā crater from above in just two hours, and you can land in valleys that are inaccessible by car, allowing you to enjoy waterfalls all to yourself.
Pilot TOSHI, who is Japanese, provides thorough explanations, so there's no need to worry about the language barrier. I highly recommend experiencing your first helicopter flight on the Big Island!
ヘリに乗ってハワイ島を半周すると、「地球が生きていること」を目の当たりにすることができる貴重な経験ができます。
このコースをクルマでドライブすると8時間以上かかります。前回来た時にレンタカーで回りましたが、時間がかかり、真っ暗な中を運転するはめになり、次回は絶対、ヘリでと、決めていました。
ヘリであれば、たった2時間で、しかもクルマでは見られないハレアカラの火口を上空から見ることができ、クルマではいけない渓谷に着陸して、滝を独り占めすることもできます。
日本人パイロットのTOSHIさんが、丁寧に解説してくれるので、言葉の心配はありません。

I previously experienced a luau at Hilton Hawaiian Village. There isn't much difference in the size of the seating or the stage. The performances and proceedings are similar, and the announcements are only in English, which made the excitement among the few Japanese travelers, including myself, somewhat lacking.
This time, my spouse and I used the premium seats, located in the second row from the front center of the stage (my wife's head is in the photo), while I was in the third row. These seats are right up close and provide an impressive view. After check-in, we were welcomed with leis and were guided to our seats, where we picked up our favorite drinks along the way. I went with a Mai Tai again this time. At the long table, about six people share taro chips, edamame, and jerky, allowing us to enjoy some time before the meal began. Additionally, this seating includes butler service (they frequently take drink orders), and drinks are all-you-can-drink, including alcohol. I ordered four cocktails, including Blue Hawaii, using a photo menu with Japanese explanations on the table. The glasses are large. The buffet food is also satisfying, on par with what you would find in Honolulu. The desserts here are especially recommended; the variety, taste, and presentation were all excellent. However, my stomach was already at capacity...
The premium seats are more expensive compared to general seating, but if you're going all the way to Hawaii Island to see a luau, it's definitely worth the splurge.
以前、ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジでのルアウを体験しました。客席の規模やステージの大きさにはあまり差はありません。演目や進行も同様で、やはり英語のみのアナウンスで、かなり少数の日本人旅行者の盛り上がりは私も含めて今一つでした。
今回夫婦二人での利用です。プレミアムシートで、席はステージ中央の前から二番目(写真にあるには嫁の頭)私は三番目。いわゆるかぶりつきのような席で迫力満点。チェックイン後に歓迎のレイをかけてもらい、席に案内される途中に好きな飲み物をピックアップします。私は今回もやはりマイタイ。長テーブルの席には約6名毎にタロイモチップスや枝豆、ジャーキーなどが配膳されていて、食事タイムが始まるまでのしばしの時間をすごすことができました。またこのシートではバトラーサービス(飲み物の注文をこまめにとってくれます)があり、アルコールを含めて飲み放題です。卓上にある写真入り日本語説明付きのカクテルメニュー(8種類位あります)で指差し注文、ブルーハワイなど計4杯も飲んでしまいました。グラスが大きいです。ブッフェの料理もホノルルと同等に満足てきるものです。ここは特にデザートがお薦めで、種類、味、見た目、全てよかったです。しかし私のお腹はすでに飽和状態 …
プレミアムシートは一般席に比べて高いですが、ハワイ島までいってルアウを見るのであれば決してケチらないことです。

I had heard that I could request a Japanese pilot, but from pick-up to boarding, everything was in English, which was quite confusing for us as a couple who are not proficient in English. Fortunately, the pilot was a veteran Japanese pilot, and there were Japanese announcements at key points, plus he spoke English slowly, which was helpful. After takeoff, I was continuously moved to the point of forgetting the passage of time. Although we couldn't see the red lava flowing due to the activity of Kilauea Volcano calming down, I was amazed by the pilot's skill in landing effortlessly in a narrow area that was hardly different from the rotor's rotation range. It was a valuable experience that cannot be fully expressed just through personal accounts and images. While it's not a price that can be easily afforded, if you have the financial means, this is definitely a tour you should try.
日本人パイロットをリクエスト出来るとのことだったが、ピックアップも含めて、搭乗までは全て英語で「英語が不得手な夫婦」としては、大いに戸惑いました。幸い、パイロットは日本人ベテランパイロットで、要所要所は日本語の案内があり、また、英語もゆっくり話してくれて助かりました。離陸後は、とにかく感動の連続で時の経つのを忘れるほどでした。キラウエア火山の活動が沈静化して、赤い溶岩が流れるのを見ることは出来ませんでしたが、それ以上に、ヘリのローター回転範囲と大して変わらない狭い場所にピンポイントで楽々と着陸するパイロットの腕に驚嘆しました。体験談とその画像だけでは語り尽くせない貴重な体験でした。気軽に体験出来る料金ではありませんが、経済的余裕があれば、是非トライしてみるべきツアーです。

I planned to arrive 15 minutes before the opening, as I heard that this show tends to get quite crowded. However, the "Kamehameha Court" is located beyond the "Lagoon Tower," which is the farthest from the "Ocean Tower" where I'm staying. Even using the tram, it's best to allow at least 15 minutes for the journey.
Thanks to arriving early, I was able to secure a seat right in the middle, which offered the best view. (By the way, I booked a standard seat.)
I believe the show is the "Tropical Show" held at "Spa Resort Hawaiian," which I saw in a TV commercial before.
If you don't have a relaxed attitude of "enjoying the show while having a meal," some people might end up disappointed. I thought, "In any case, I'm going to have a meal, so I can enjoy a drink without my wife nagging me!" The participation fee is also quite high, so it varies depending on each person's style.
このショーは、結構混雑するらしいとのことで、開場15分前には到着するつもりでした。
しかしながら、『カメハメハコート』は、当方が滞在している『オーシャン・タワー』から一番遠い『ラグーン・タワー』の先にあります。
『トラム』を使っての移動でも15分は見ておいた方が無難です。
早く到着した甲斐もあり、開場のど真ん中の一番見やすい席を確保することができました。
(因みに、私が申し込んだのはスタンダードシートです。)
ショーの内容は、以前テレビコマーシャルで見た『スパリゾート・ハワイアン』で行われている『南国のショー』がこれに当たるのだと思います。
『食事を摂りながらショーも楽しむ!』ぐらいのおおらかさがないと、失望される方もいらっしゃるのではないでしょうか?
私は、『何れにせよ食事も摂るのだし、家内にぐだぐだ言われすにお酒が飲める!』との考えでした。

As the only Japanese participant who didn't understand English that day, I approached the experience with a spirit of challenge. I was given a brochure with clear explanations in Japanese about the ship and the whales. While the staff were attentive with drinks and other services, I felt that there was a slight lack of effort in helping customers spot the whales. I was able to see a few jumps and blows faintly, but I thought the price for this activity was too high, even considering the cost of living.
