マウナケア山麓 星空観測ツアー ボイリング・ポッツやカウマナケイブなど穴場スポットにも立ち寄り<夕食付/英語ガイド/ヒロ地区発>

For first-time visitors to the Big Island! ハワイ島初めての方に!

Reviewed by: masa

My first trip to the Big Island of Hawaii was filled with uncertainties, but it was comfortable. There was a pickup at the hotel and meals included. Considering the cost of living, the price seems reasonable. They accurately took us to several attractions. The highlight was stargazing. The view was truly amazing. It was quite cold, but they provided warm clothing, so you can rest assured about that. English is quite difficult, so a certain level of proficiency is necessary.

初のハワイ島の旅で分からないことだらけでしたが快適でした。ホテルでのピックアップと、お食事付きです。価格は物価を考えれば妥当と思います。いくつかの名所を的確に回ってくれます。ハイライトは星空鑑賞。本当に素晴らしい景色でした。かなり寒いですが防寒具も用意されているのでそこもご安心ください。英語はかなり難しいので、ある程度のごりょくはひつようです。

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ  2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察!<12~3月/軽食付き/英語ガイド/カイルアコナ発>

The whale was spouting water in the distance! クジラは遠くで潮を吹いていました!

Reviewed by: Ken

I've been to Hawaii nearly 20 times, and until now, my visits were primarily for golfing. However, as I've gotten older (79 years old) and my companions have diminished, this time I went with my wife and two of her friends.

At the women's request, we went whale watching for the first time. I couldn't understand the guide's English, but I could feel the boat's determination to chase after the whales. Unfortunately, we couldn't encounter them up close, but we did catch a glimpse of a black whale breaching in the distance, along with a faint spout of water.

While I wasn't completely satisfied, the anticipation was definitely there. On the way back, the sight of the white waves crashing against the coastline of the Big Island was a breathtaking view that you can't see from the ground. However, the boat's light snack was just a single pasta dish, which was disappointing.

ハワイは20回近くいっていますが、今まではゴルフ目的でしたが、歳を重ね(79歳)同伴者がいなくなり今回は妻と妻の友達2人でした。
女性陣の希望で初めてホエールウォッチングをしました。
ガイドは英語で理解出来ませんでしたが、船は懸命にクジラを追っているな感じは伝わって跳ねるきましたが、近くでの遭遇出来ず、遠くで微かに吹き上がる潮と跳ねる黒いクジラが一瞬見られました。
大満足は出来ませんでしたが、期待感は十分でした。
帰路船からみるハワイ島の海岸に打ち上げてある白い波しぶきは地上では見られない迫力ある光景でした。
船の軽食はパスタが一品だけで期待ハズレでした。

ご参加いただき、初めてのクジラ観察の冒険を共にしていただき、ありがとうございます。また、体験を共有していただき、心より感謝申し上げます。ビッグアイランドの海岸線の素晴らしい景色を楽しんでいただけたことを嬉しく思いますが、クジラの目撃は時には距離があることもあることを理解しています。これらの素晴らしい生き物は自然の生息地で自由に動いていますので、私たちは誇り高いNOAA準拠のツアーオペレーターとして、クジラの安全と健康を確保するために、少なくとも100ヤードの距離を保ちながら、最高の観賞機会を提供しています。

スナックの提供についてのご意見も感謝いたします。お客様の体験を向上させるために、常に努力しているため、今後の参考にさせていただきます。ボディグローブクルーズをお選びいただき、ありがとうございます。またの冒険でお迎えできることを楽しみにしています!

Thank you for joining us on your first whale-watching adventure and for sharing your experience. We truly appreciate your visit and your feedback. While we’re glad you enjoyed the stunning views of the Big Island’s coastline, we understand that whale sightings can sometimes be at a distance, as these magnificent creatures move freely in their natural habitat. As a proud NOAA-compliant tour operator, we respectfully maintain a distance of at least 100 yards from whales to ensure their safety and well-being while providing the best viewing opportunities possible.

We also appreciate your feedback on the snack offerings and will take it into consideration as we continually strive to enhance our guest experience. Mahalo for choosing Body Glove Cruises, and we hope to welcome you aboard again for another adventure!

グラスボトムボートクルーズ <カイルアコナ発・英語ガイド>

In the waters of Hawaii Island. ハワイ島の海の中

Reviewed by: chim

I didn't want to go into the ocean, but my elderly mother did, and since it was our first time in Hawaii, I wanted to see the underwater world while snorkeling. The glass-bottom boat made both of our wishes come true.

While we didn't see a wide variety of colorful corals, the water was clearer than we expected, and we were able to see quite a few fish. We even encountered dolphins! Although we only saw their fins.

The staff were cheerful and kind, and even though we hardly spoke any English, we had a great time.

海に入りたくない高齢の母と、せっかく初めてのハワイ島だからシュノーケルで海の中を見てみたい私。どちらの希望も叶えてくれたのがこのグラスボートでした。

色とりどりの珊瑚〜とまではいきませんでしたが、予想より水の透明度が高く、そこそこ魚も見られました。イルカも遭遇しましたよ!ヒレしか見えませんでしたが。

スタッフも明るく親切、英語のほとんど話せない私達でも充分楽しめました。

I was able to see whales and sharks while snorkeling with manta rays! マンタシュノーケリングでクジラとサメも見れました!た

Reviewed by: Non

On the way to the manta snorkeling point, while riding the boat and enjoying the beautiful sunset, we were able to see two whales and many sharks. I heard that sharks can only be seen about twice a year.

During snorkeling, the large mantas came so close that it felt like they were almost going to bump into us, which was very impressive!

The staff were all very kind, and having a Japanese guide on board made us feel secure. After the tour, they even sent us the videos taken with the GoPro for free. I highly recommend this tour!

プライベートチャーター ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー!GoProレンタルあり<午前/日本語ガイド>

A luxurious experience 贅沢な体験

Reviewed by: りょん

This is a luxurious tour where you can enjoy whale watching, dolphin watching, sea turtle viewing, and snorkeling all on a cruise charter. We participated as a family of six across three generations, and with two staff members accompanying us, one of whom entered the water to provide guidance and support, my 78-year-old mother, who has paralysis on her right side, was truly grateful to be able to snorkel together. After snorkeling, there was a service of tropical fruits, juice, and snacks, which I believe offers great value for the price. I especially recommend private charters for families with small children or elderly individuals.

クルーザーチャーターで、ホエールウオッチングも、イルカウオッチングも、ウミガメかざしも楽しめ、スノーケルも楽しめる贅沢なツアーです。
三世代家族6人で参加しましたが、スタッフが2人付いてくれ、1人が一緒に海に入って指導やサポートをしてくれるので、78歳で右半身に麻痺が残る母も、一緒にスノーケルできたのが本当にありがたかったです。
スノーケル後にはトロピカルフルーツやジュース、スナックのサービスもあり、お値段以上の価値があると思います。
特に小さいお子さんや高齢の方にはプライベートチャーターはお勧めです。

野生のイルカウォッチング&ダブルシュノーケリングクルーズ byイルカ大学<ランチ付き/英語ガイド(日本語スタッフ乗船日あり)>

It was disappointing. 期待はずれでした

Reviewed by: シュノーケル大好き

I couldn't see any dolphins, whales, or turtles, not even a shadow or a hint of their presence, and I felt no motivation to search for them. The first snorkeling spot had hardly any fish, yet we were made to swim there for a long time. The second snorkeling spot was really great, but I got cold and tired from the first spot, so I ended up spending less time at the second one, which was disappointing. The hot dog for lunch had a sickly red sausage that was surprisingly bad, and I couldn't eat it. It was the worst hot dog I've ever had; I always thought you couldn't make a hot dog taste bad no matter how you prepared it, so I was shocked. There were no pineapples. The boat was simpler than I expected and rocked a lot, making it uncomfortable to ride. I thought the quality for this price was terrible.

イルカもクジラもカメも影も形もみえず、気配さえ感じられず、なんとか探そうという気概も感じられず。一回目のシュノーケルスポットはたいして魚もいないのに長時間泳がされて、2回目のシュノーケルスポットはとてもよかったのに、一回目のシュノーケルスポットで冷えて疲れて2回目の方が短時間になってしまい物足りなかった。ランチのホットドッグが気持ち悪い赤い色のソーセージで、びっくりするほどまずく、食べられなかった。こんなにまずいホットドックはうまれて初めて、ホットドックなんてどう作ってもまずくはならないと思っていたので衝撃だった。パイナップルはなかった。船も思っていたより簡易的で揺れて乗り心地が悪かった。この値段でこの内容はひどすぎると思いました。

Dear Snorkeling Lover,

Thank you very much for participating in the Dolphin Watching & Double Snorkel tour on the Big Island the other day. We sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations despite your visit.

We have communicated your feedback to the local crew and confirmed the situation on the day of the tour. Regarding the dolphin encounters, unfortunately, there were no dolphins spotted in the bay preferred by them near the harbor, so we moved to the first snorkeling point. Since there were no sightings reported by other tour boats afterward, we proceeded to the next point. While the Big Island is rich in wildlife, we hope you understand that there are times when encounters may not occur.

As for the snorkeling points, we selected locations considering the sea conditions and weather on the day to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, but we regret that we could not meet your expectations. Additionally, the hot dogs provided for lunch are a local favorite made with paprika coloring, prepared as a Hawaiian local food. Unfortunately, we were unable to provide pineapple as it was sold out that day. We apologize for the crew not being able to adequately explain and apologize regarding lunch during the tour. We believe that if we could have communicated more information during the tour, you would have enjoyed it more.

We apologize again for not being able to alleviate your concerns due to the absence of a Japanese-speaking crew member. If you participate again in the future, please feel free to request Japanese support, and we will arrange for a Japanese crew member.

We will strive to provide a tour that meets your satisfaction once again. Once again, we apologize for not meeting your expectations this time.

シュノーケリング大好き様。 先日は、ハワイ島ドルフィンウォッチング&ダブルシュノーケルのツアーにご参加いただき、誠にありがとうございました。この度は、せっかくお越しいただいたにもかかわらず、ご期待に添えなかったことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。 いただいたご指摘を現地クルーに伝え、当日の状況を確認いたしました。まず、イルカの遭遇に関してですが、ハーバー近くのイルカの好む湾において、当日はイルカが見られず、最初のシュノーケルポイントに移動いたしました。その後も他のツアーボートからの目撃情報がなかったため、次のポイントに移動いたしました。ハワイ島は野生生物が豊富ですが、出会えない場合があることをご理解いただければ幸いです。 シュノーケルポイントについては、当日の海況や天候を考慮し、安全に楽しんでいただける場所を選びましたが、期待に添えなかったことを残念に思います。また、ランチで提供したホットドッグはパプリカの色素を使った地元の人気商品で、ハワイのローカルフードとしてご用意しております。 パイナップルについては、当日売り切れのためご用意できなかったとの事でした。ランチに関してツアー中にクルーがしっかりとご説明とお詫びができず、申し訳ございませんでした。お客様にツアー中に情報をお伝えできれば、より楽しんでいただけたのではと考えております。日本語を話せるクルーが不在であったため、ご不安を解消することができなかったことを重ねてお詫びします。 次回ご参加いただける際には、日本語対応のリクエストをいただければ、日本人クルーの調整を行いますので、ぜひお気軽にお知らせください。お客様に再度ご満足いただけるツアーを提供できるよう、努めてまいります。 改めて、この度はご期待に添えなかったことをお詫び申し上げます。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾 シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

Beautiful sea. きれいな海

Reviewed by: ウィル

It was unfortunately a cloudy day, but thanks to the cheerful crew, my spirits were lifted. Even with my limited English, they understood me and responded kindly. The sea was cold, but it was beautiful and became an unforgettable memory.

あいにくの曇り空でしたが、陽気なクルーのおかげでテンションがあがりました。私のつたない英語でも、理解してくれて、優しく対応してもらいました。
海は冷たかったけど、美しくて忘れられない思い出になりました。、

You can really feel that you've come abroad when there are no Japanese passengers. I recommend it for those who can enjoy that experience.

野生のイルカウォッチング&ダブルシュノーケリングクルーズ byイルカ大学<ランチ付き/英語ガイド(日本語スタッフ乗船日あり)>

It was a bit disappointing. 少し残念でした

Reviewed by: Yuzu

Right after we set off, we spotted a pod of dolphins near the exit from the port. They even showed us some jumps. The snorkeling point seemed to be beginner-friendly since there were children, but the waves were quite rough, and there were only a few types of fish, so it wasn't a very impressive experience. As a result, some participants got seasick, and although it was a tour that included lunch, when I mentioned that I couldn't eat, nothing was provided, and the tour ended. I wasn't able to ask because my English isn't very good, but I wish they had at least asked if I wanted to take something back.

出発してすぐ、港からの出口付近にイルカの群れを発見。ジャンプも見せてくれました。シュノーケルは子供も居たので初心者向けのポイントだった様ですが、結構波が荒く、魚も数種類で感動体験とはいきませんでした。結果参加者は船酔いしてしまい、昼食付きのツアーでしたが今は食べられなそうと言ったら何も提供されないままツアー終了。英語が不慣れな事もあり聞けませんでしたが、せめて持ち帰るか?など聞いて欲しかったです。

Tips and suggestions

I wouldn't particularly recommend snorkeling. You might enjoy a dolphin and whale watching cruise more.

Tips and suggestions

シュノーケルは余りオススメ出来ない。イルカ、クジラのウォッチングクルーズの方が楽しめるかもしれません。

Aloha, Yuzu. Thank you for participating in the Dolphin Watch & Double Snorkel by Dolphin University on the Big Island. We were glad to encounter a pod of dolphins and see them jump! We also appreciate you sharing your dolphin photos. However, we apologize that the snorkeling did not meet your expectations due to rough sea conditions. We will share your feedback regarding lunch with our staff to improve our services in the future. We sincerely look forward to your next participation. Mahalo nui and a hui hou!

アロハ、Yuzuさま。ハワイ島ドルフィンウォッチ&ダブルシュノーケルbyイルカ大学に参加していただき、ありがとうございました。イルカの群れに遭遇しジャンプを見せてくれて良かったです!! またイルカの写真を共有していただき感謝いたします。しかしながら、シュノーケルは海が荒れていたようであり、Yuzuさまの期待に応えることができず申し訳ございませんでした。ランチに関してはYuzuさまのご指摘をスタッフと共有し、今後のサービス向上に繋げさせていただきたいと存じます。Yuzuさまのまたのご参加を心よりお待ちしております。Mahalo nui and a hui hou!

マンタ大学夜学部 野生のマンタ&ナイトシュノーケリングツアー <送迎可/日本語スタッフ乗船日あり>

Manta watching tour マンタを観るツアー

Reviewed by: レオ

I was a bit disappointed because I thought more manta rays would gather in the light, but there were only a few. Next time, I want to see dolphins.

マンタが、もっと光に集まってくるかと思い数匹だったのでちょっとガッカリでした。
じかいは、イルカちゃんをみたいです。

Aloha! Leo. Thank you for participating in Manta University. I apologize for the delay in my response since the day of the event. I’m sorry that there were fewer mantas than expected on the tour day, and I regret that it did not meet your expectations. If you have the opportunity to visit Hawaii again, we would be delighted if you could join us for Dolphin University on the Big Island or Oahu to see wild dolphins. All of our crew sincerely looks forward to your participation again. Mahalo nui and a hui hou!

アロハ! レオさま。マンタ大学に参加していただき、ありがとうございました。参加日から時間が経っての返信に関してお詫び申しあげます。ツアー当日はレオさまの期待を下回る頭数のマンタしか集まらず残念な思いをさせてしまい申し訳ございませんでした。またハワイにいらっしゃる機会には、ぜひ、野生のイルカを見にハワイ島もしくはオアフ島のイルカ大学へ参加していただけたら幸いです。クルー一同、またのご参加を心よりお待ちしております。Mahalo nui and a hui hou!

キャプテン・クック号 サンセット・ディナークルーズ <夕食・カクテル1杯付き/カイルアピア発>

Sailing down the west coast of the Big Island to Captain Cook's landing point, then enjoying the sunset as it falls on the horizon. ハワイ島西海岸沖をキャプテンクック上陸点まで南下、そのあと水平線に落ちる夕日を堪能

Reviewed by: 水戸黄門

We sailed south along the west coast of the Big Island to the Captain Cook landing site. While listening to explanations about the history of the Big Island, we were able to see the magnificent overall view of the island from the sea, which was quite enjoyable. Dinner was a set menu, including cocktails and soft drinks. When requesting a vegetarian meal at the time of reservation, we were served Thai curry. For appetizers, we had a green salad with strawberries, and for dessert, there was a wonderfully sweet chocolate tart cake. Hot coffee (Kona coffee) was also provided. After turning back at the Captain Cook landing site, we headed towards the departing port while witnessing the sunset offshore. Along the way, a family of dolphins came close, which was exciting even though it was for a short time. We also observed small fish, resembling flying fish, actively jumping around. Onboard, there was a live guitar performance, and we had a great time singing along to classic hits that any American would know. Depending on the weather, the boat might sway a bit, so those who are prone to seasickness might want to bring motion sickness medication.

ハワイ島西海岸沿いの沖合をキャプテンクック上陸点まで南下。ハワイ島の歴史に関する説明を聞きながら、西海岸沖の海上から雄大なハワイ島の全体像を見ることができ、これだけでもかなり楽しめます。夕食はセットメニューで、カクテルやソフトドリンクがついています。ベジタリアンミールを希望するときは予約時に選択すると、タイカレーが提供されました。前菜としてイチゴの入ったグリーンサラダ、デザートにはめいっぱい甘いチョコレートタルトケーキがでました。ホットコーヒー(コナコーヒー)も提供してくれます。キャプテンクック上陸点で折り返し、沖合でサンセットを見届けると出発した港に向けて航路を向けますが、途中でイルカの家族が近くまで来てくれて、短い時間でしたが盛り上がりました。アジサシ?のような小さな飛び魚のような魚が盛んに飛びながらおよいでいるのも観察できました。船上ではギターのライブ演奏があり、アメリカ人ならだれでも知っている往年のヒット曲で大いに盛り上がりました。天候によっては多少揺れると思いますので、船に弱い人は酔い止めを持って行った方がよいかもしれません。

Tips and suggestions

There is absolutely no support for Japanese tourists. Everything is in English, so those who are not confident in their English may miss out on what is being discussed, but I think you can still enjoy

Tips and suggestions

日本人観光客に対する対応はまったくありません。すべて英語ですので、英語に不安のある方は話をしている内容が聞き取れずもったいないように思いますが、単純にサンセットクルーズだけでも楽しめるかと思います。

  • タクラマカン型の船

  • キャプテン・クック上陸地点の記念碑(折り返し地点)

  • サンセット(雲がないともっと綺麗かと)
