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>

Six manta rays!! マンタ6羽!!

Reviewed by: みぽりん

I participated on the first night after arriving on the Big Island. Even though the encounter rate is 99%, I was worried that I might not see any... but that was not the case!! A total of nearly six manta rays appeared, showing their bellies while feeding. They came so close that it felt like I could touch them, and it was an amazing sight. The guide was also very kind and attentive, and I had a truly wonderful time. Next time I come to the Big Island, I would like to participate in the manta ray experience again.

ハワイ島に到着した初日の夜に参加しました。
遭遇率99%といえど、もしかしたら会えないかも…と心配していましたか、なんのその!!
合計6羽近くのマンタが現れ、お腹を見せてご飯を食べてくれました。
触れてしまいそうな距離まで来てくれ、圧巻の光景でした。
ガイドのお姉さんも親切丁寧に対応してくれ、とても素晴らしい時間を過ごさせていただきました。
次回ハワイ島に来るときは、またマンタ大学に参加したいと思います。

Aloha, Miporin,

Thank you for participating in the manta tour. We are all thrilled that you were able to experience the excitement of seeing wild mantas up close enough to touch.

When you come to Oahu again, we also have tours such as the Dolphin Middle School and University, so we look forward to your next visit.

Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

Absolutely Amazing!

Reviewed by: Robin J

One of the coolest things we’ve done. The Manta rays would get so close and were so graceful and gentle.

The crew, including Capt Mike Morgan, was awesome and ensured we had a fabulous time. I would rate this as a MUST DO on the big island! Experience of a lifetime!

A large pod of dolphins! イルカの大群!

Reviewed by: あこりん

I have done dolphin snorkeling in places like Honolulu, Guam, and the Ogasawara Islands, but this was the first time I encountered so many dolphins. In the early morning, the water was very clear, and I could see dolphins from a distance, but after a while, the water became murky, making it a bit difficult to find them even when they said, "There are dolphins!" However, I got to see baby dolphins and a lot of dolphin jumps, which made me very satisfied. There was someone in the tour who was free diving, and I was really envious of them. When we were leaving, the captain sped off at an incredible speed, so be careful! (laughs)

ホノルルやグァム、小笠原などでイルカシュノーケルをしたことがありますが、
こんなにたくさんのイルカと会えたのは初めてです。
朝一番は海も透明度が高く遠くのイルカもたくさん見えましたが
少し時間がたつと海が濁ってきて「イルカいるよー」と言われても潜ってしまうとちょっと探しづらかったです。
でも赤ちゃんイルカも見れたし、イルカジャンプもたくさん見れて大満足でした。
ツアーの中で一人巣潜りされてる方がいらして本当に羨ましかったです。
帰る時、船長さんが恐ろしいスピードでぶっ飛ばすので要注意です(笑)

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Excellent Experience overall

Reviewed by: Jmontgomery

Even though I was sea sick, my husband and daughter had the time of their life that they described as surreal like a dream. The mantas were inches away from their faces doing rolls. An experience they will never forgot and well worth it. The captain and crew were very nice and sympathetic to my condition.

The meeting is at 15:30, and it takes about four hours in a relaxed manner. I didn't expect much from the food, and it turned out as I anticipated. However, if you can have a normal conversation in English, it might actually be quite interesting. We encountered dolphins, or rather, there was a dolphin show happening around the boat in a certain area of the sea.

15:30集合からダラダラと四時間程度かかります。食事も期待しないで行きましたが、やはり予想通りでした。ただ、英語で普通に会話出来れば案外面白いかも。

Manta is the best!! マンタ最高!!

Reviewed by: ちろにゃん

During my second visit to the Big Island, I participated in the manta night snorkeling that I had wanted to join for a long time. At first, I was a bit anxious because we couldn't see them, but towards the end, the mantas came multiple times, making it the best day ever! I was truly moved to see that they really exist! The ocean around the Big Island is wonderful! In June, the water wasn't too cold, but the return trip on the rubber boat was uncomfortable and made me feel sick. Also, I arrived by rental car, but I panicked because I couldn't find the landmark sign. Has the sign changed? Please check for the sake of future visitors.

二度目のハワイ島訪問で、前からずっと参加したかったマンタのナイトシュノーケリングに参加しました。
始めはなかなか見れなく少し焦りましたが、最後の方にはマンタが何度も来て最高の日になりました!
本当に実在しているんだぁと感動!!
ハワイ島の海は素晴らしいですね!
6月の海では寒さはあまり気になりませんでしたが、帰りのゴムボートが気持ち悪くてしんどかったです( ; ; )
あと、レンタカーで現地集合したのですが、目印の看板が見つからず焦りました。看板変わっていませんか。
今後の方のためにも確認をお願いします。

You will board the submarine after going a little offshore from the dock. The interior of the submarine has two rows, both of which are by the windows, allowing you to observe the underwater scenery without any stress. My 4-year-old grandchild who accompanied me was also very excited. All the staff members are young and friendly. I especially recommend this experience for families with small children.

As the reviews mentioned, it seems that there is a long line, so when I went to the front at 5 PM for the 5:30 PM reception, there was a long queue next to the front desk! Everyone was shouting something together, and I panicked thinking I was late, but it was still okay. I was seated about three rows from the front, which made it very easy to see, and the food was quite delicious. The atmosphere was friendly and lively, and I really enjoyed it.

I got to play with wild dolphins! 野生のイルカに遊んでもらいました!

Reviewed by: HIROKO

In the past, I watched a program where the hosts discovered and introduced the wonders of a certain world while answering quizzes. I saw footage of former synchronized swimmer Mikako Kotani swimming freely with dolphins, and I dreamed of swimming with dolphins like that. It was truly a happy time when that dream came true!

I was told not to touch them, but the dolphins came so close that it felt like they were about to bump into me. They swam alongside me, followed behind in a group, and suddenly one appeared right beneath me. I had so much fun playing with the dolphins! (*^^*)

The dolphins on the Big Island of Hawaii are said to be friendlier than those on other islands and will come close to you. So, if you're going to do a dolphin swim, I highly recommend the Big Island!

Also, I was lucky enough to see a manta ray! That seemed to be a stroke of luck. The tour guides were also dedicated to helping us find dolphins and ensuring we had a great time.

You can borrow a wetsuit, which is enough to keep you afloat, but if you're feeling anxious, you can also borrow a floating pole (a cylindrical float), so even if you're not a strong swimmer, you'll be fine. There was even a little boy, about three years old, who was entering the water with the guide's support. (Little ones must wear life jackets.)

When I posted about it on Facebook, someone immediately expressed interest in going, so I recommended this tour. When we come back to the Big Island, we will definitely participate in this tour again! Thank you so much! (*^^*)

昔、某世界のふしぎを発見・紹介しながら出演者がクイズに答える番組で、元シンクロ選手の小谷実可子さんがイルカと自由に泳いでる映像を観て、イルカと泳ぐことに憧れていました。
あんな風にイルカと泳げたらいいな、と思っていた状況が実現して、本当に幸せな時間でした!
触っちゃいけないと言われてましたが、イルカの方からぶつかりそうなくらい近くまで寄ってきて、横に並んで泳いだり、群れの後ろについて泳いだり、突然イルカが私の下から現れたりして、イルカに遊んでもらえて本当に楽しかったです(*^^*)
ハワイ島のイルカは他の島より人懐っこく、近くまで来てくれるそうです。なので、ドルフィンスイムをするなら、ハワイ島が一番オススメ!!
あと、ラッキーなことにマンタも観れました!それは運が良かったみたいです。
ツアーガイドの皆さんもイルカを探したり、先回りしたり、楽しめるように尽力してくださってました。
ウェットスーツを借りるので、それだけでも十分浮けますが、不安な人はフローティングポール(筒状の浮き具)を借りられるので泳ぎが得意でなくても大丈夫です。3歳くらいの男の子も、ガイドさんに支えてもらいながら海に入ってました。(ちっちゃい子はライフジャケット着用)
Facebookにあげたら、早速行きたい!という人がいたので、ここのツアーをオススメしました。
私達もまたハワイ島に来る時は、このツアーに参加します!
ありがとうございました!(*^^*)

Very good experience

Reviewed by: Matt

My wife and I had a good experience. The boat was comfortable although some people got seasick since it was a fairly choppy sea. I'd recommend taking Dramamine before going. The appetizers were just bagged snacks and cans of juice and pop. We ended up seeing about eight manta rays in the water.

野生のマンタ シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/軽食付き>

Mantas keep coming one after another! マンタが次から次へ来てくれる!

Reviewed by: のんのろ

I love the ocean, and I have had experiences swimming with turtles and dolphins while snorkeling in various places. Unfortunately, I can't dive because of my hearing issues. However, manta rays don't usually come close to the surface. I had given up on seeing them up close, but on this tour, they kept coming one after another! ♡

We surrounded the light with our snorkeling gear and observed them. It felt more like the manta rays were coming to eat the plankton gathered around the light rather than swimming alongside us. Still, they came so close that I had to dodge them! I could see right into their bellies.

There were probably 6 to 7 manta rays that kept circling around endlessly. I might have been lucky, but I really enjoyed it! You should definitely bring a GoPro. Also, I wasn't cold at all on the boat. However, since many Japanese people are sensitive to the cold, it might be a good idea to bring a towel or a sweatshirt just in case.

私は海が大好きで、いろいろなところでシュノーケリングをすることで亀やイルカと泳いだ経験はありました。耳が悪いので、ダイビングをすることができません。でも、マンタはなかなか水面までは来てくれません。なので、マンタをまじかで見ることは諦めていましたが、このツアーだと、次から次へと遊びに来てくれます♡
ライトの近くを囲んでシュノーケリルをつけて観察する感じで、一緒に泳ぐというよりは、マンタがライトに集まって来たプランクトンを食べに来てくれるという感じでした。それでも、マンタが自分でぶつかってくるほど近くに来てくれたので、こちらが避けないとならないほどでした。
マンタのお腹の中までよく見えます。
多分6-7枚のマンタがエンドレスで順繰り廻って来てくれる感じでした。運が良かったのかもしれないですが本当に楽しめました!
Go proは絶対持って行くべきです。
あと、船の上では私は全く寒くなかったです。
ただ、日本人は寒がりな人が多いので、タオルを呼びで1枚持って行く、もしくはトレーナーなどを持って行ってもいいのかもしれません。

I've been to various luaus, and this was the best. Really. My three-generation family ranges in age from 3 y/o to 70, and everyone had a great time. The 7 y/o was truly amazed by everything, which was delightful. The event was well organized, informative, and vastly entertaining. The food and beverages we're very good, high quality, and plentiful. No dishes ran out, and the selection was excellent. The arrival of the King and his court was fun. We enjoyed the extra touches, like the Hawaiians tattoos, and hula lesson. The dancers were excellent and engaging; we especially enjoyed those involving fire! I would definitely recommend this luau. I don't think there were any bad seats, and the view was glorious.

Overall, this was as a good luau experience. The show was excellent and the food was also excellent and plenty of variety. The setting is beautiful. The open bar was very good. There was not a lot of room, however, considering they were serving over 500 people (I overheard an organizer tell a waiter it was "515 people tonight"). The seating was a bit cramped. The ancillary activities (lei making for example) was fairly limited and not too well publicized. Those were the things that made our luau in Oahu truly special and yet we weren't able to take advantage of them since the supplies were limited.

It was an amazing experience. すごい体験でした

Reviewed by: みのさん

You can see manta rays really up close. The manta rays illuminated by blue light cross right in front of you over and over again. This was a wonderful experience. Alicia, who speaks Japanese well, explained everything clearly, so both my middle school daughter and us in our late forties enjoyed it without any worries.

As a note, if you're not confident in swimming, don't hesitate to borrow a life jacket (free of charge). If you check the water temperature and feel it's even a little cold, you should rent a wetsuit for a fee. If you're prone to seasickness, be sure to take motion sickness medication.

We zoomed to the spot where the manta rays are located by boat, and since we were in the night sea for 40 minutes, it was quite chilly in mid-June. They don't provide a tutorial on how to use the snorkel, so if it's your first time, it's better to ask how to use it once you receive it. They will talk about not touching the manta rays and safety precautions before entering the water, so make sure to follow those instructions.

After starting the snorkeling, they check on you multiple times asking, "Are you okay?" So if you feel uncomfortable, it's better to get back on the boat. It's a wonderful experience, so feel free to ask for assistance, and enjoy it while considering your own stamina and condition.

マンタが本当にすぐ近くで見られます。青い光に照らされたマンタが目の前を何度も何度も横切ります。
これは素晴らしい経験でした。
日本語の上手なアリシアちゃんがきちんと説明をしてくれたので、中学生の娘もアラフィフの私たちもなんの不安もなく楽しめました。
注意点としては、泳ぎに自信がないなら迷わずライフジャケット(無料)を借りること。水温を確認して少しでも冷たいと思ったら有料のウェットスーツは借りること。船酔いの恐れがある人は酔い止めを必ず飲むこと
マンタのいるスポットまでボートで飛ばしますし、40分間夜の海に浸っているので、6月半ばではかなり冷えました。
シュノーケルの使い方は講習的なことはやってくれません。初体験の方は渡されたらどう使うかを聞いたほうが良いです。
海に入る前にマンタを触らないことや態勢の注意点を話してくれるのできちんと守りましょう。
シュノーケルを始めた後、途中で「大丈夫?」と何度も声かけしてくれるので、辛いと思ったらボートに上がったほうが良いです。
せっかくの素敵な体験です。声をかければ対応してくれるので、自分の体力や体調と相談しながら楽しんでください。

It was just as rumored. ほんとうわさ通りでした

Reviewed by: フェミちゃん

Wow, I was surprised when a real manta ray came towards me with its mouth open! It gracefully swam by, flipping over to show its white belly. There were fish similar to horse mackerel swimming right next to me, and the water was so clear that I could see snake-like fish slithering along the seabed. I definitely recommend enjoying the natural beauty of the Big Island of Hawaii. When a manta ray appears, you should jump in the water and stay underwater for about 30 minutes in a horizontal position. There are occasionally cold currents, so it's better to rent a wetsuit. I think it would be tough to participate on a full stomach since the boat sways when it stops.

いゃぁ〜、本物のマンタが口を開けてこっちに向かって来たときにはビックリしました‼️ (口は閉じれるのか?)目の前で体を反転させ腹の白い部分を見せて、優雅に泳いでました。
鯵に似た魚もすぐ側を泳いでいて、海底では海へびのような魚もニョロニョロしているのがわかるくらいの透明度が高い海です。
ハワイ島の自然を是非楽しんでほしいですね。
マンタが現れたら入水し、30分は水中でケノビ状態でいます。時たま冷たい流れがあるので、ウエットスーツは借りた方がいいです。 停船すると波でゆれるので、お腹いっぱいで参加するのはキツイと思います。

With the help of the friendly Daisuke and Kevin, as well as the slightly shy but cheerful captain, we headed out to sea!

Although I shouldn't reach out to touch them, they were so close that it felt like I could. The fun time flew by in an instant. The anxiety I felt before participating turned into smiles.

Sacred Pu’uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park & Kona Farms Guided Tour

Drew was fantastic!!

Reviewed by: Avocado thief+2

Wow! We had the pleasure of taking the historic Kona tour with Drew. It was an amazing day! Drew has an energy and enthusiasm about the island that is infectious! He took us to beautiful spots that were advertised and even a few of his favorites that were off the beaten path a bit. The thing that stood out was the intricate knowledge of the historical significance of all the places that we went that Drew was able to share with us. I’ve been to a few of these spots before but never understood them as I do now and that’s all from our great guide. Drew, I hope you know that you shared with us a memory that we will all hold dear for life!

I was able to meet a lot of dolphins!! たくさんのイルカに会えました!!

Reviewed by: T &A

Honestly, I didn't expect to see so many dolphins. On this day, we were lucky and encountered a pod of dolphins right after we set sail. My wife was nervous about swimming, but the guide took the time to teach each person how to swim, which made her feel at ease to participate in the tour. Above all, we could feel the love that our guide, Daisuke, had for the dolphins. Thanks to him, we were able to swim with the dolphins together as a couple, creating the best memories. Thank you very much.

正直、こんなにもイルカに会えるとは思っていませんでした。この日はタイミングが良く、出港してすぐにイルカの群れと会う事ができました。
泳ぎに不安だった妻でしたが苦手な人に対して1人1人に泳ぎ方を教えてくれて、安心してツアーに参加する事ができました。
何よりもガイドのダイスケさんのイルカに対する愛を感じました。そのお陰で夫婦でイルカと一緒に泳ぐ事ができ最高の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。

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 Night Snorkeling in Hawaii Island ハワイ島野生のマンタナイトシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: もくれん

Despite the concerns raised by the news of the Kilauea volcano eruption, we set off for the Big Island of Hawaii! We enjoyed ourselves without any problems. Of course, we encountered manta rays. Shortly after entering the water, the manta rays came to us. Our Japanese guide, a stylish woman named Tori from Chiba Prefecture, took great care to ease everyone's nerves and provided us with a wonderful experience. Thank you very much.

キラウエア火山噴火のニュースで心配の声も気にせずにハワイ島に出発!
何の問題もなくエンジョイ
もちろん、マンタに出会えたした。
海に入り間もなくマンタはやってきました。日本語ガイド、千葉県出身の粋な女性トリちゃんは一人一人の体調など細心の気遣いで緊張をほぐし、素晴らしい体験をさせてくださいました。ありがとうございました。

There are so many cute dolphins! 可愛いイルカちゃん達が沢山!

Reviewed by: I.S

I participated in this tour for my honeymoon trip. There were other similar tours available, but I chose this one for three reasons: 1. a 95% chance of encountering dolphins, 2. many repeat customers, and most importantly, 3. it's suitable even for those who are not good swimmers!

If you're someone who wants to see dolphins but is a bit hesitant about swimming, I highly recommend this tour!

Even for someone like me who struggles with swimming, the guide provided excellent support, allowing me to enjoy the experience without worry. It was truly fun!

The guide was very knowledgeable about dolphins, and you could really feel the connection they had with them. I couldn't help but think that they might have been a dolphin in a past life! (laughs)

今回はハネムーン旅行で参加しました
。他にも似たようなツアーがありましたが、こちらを選んだ理由は1.イルカ遭遇率95% 、 2.リピーターが多い事、そして何より3.泳ぎが苦手な人でも大丈夫!とありましたので申し込みしました。

イルカは見たいけど泳ぎがちょっと、、、と思ってる方がいましたら是非こちらお薦めします!

泳ぎが苦手な私でも、安心して楽しめるようにガイドさんがしっかりフォローして下さって、本当に楽しかったです!

ガイドさん、イルカを熟知されてて、イルカと心を通わせてるのが伝わってきて、前世ではイルカだったんじゃないかな?と思わず考えてしまうほどでした。笑

Reviewed by: しろみすてぃ

I don't think I'll have the chance to encounter a pod of dolphins like this again in the future. So, I'm really glad I participated. The guide really goes all out to help us see as many as possible. If you're prone to seasickness, I recommend taking some motion sickness medication before joining.

いるかの群れにたくさん出会えるのが今後ないと思います。なので、参加できて本当によかったです。ガイドさん、たくさん会えるように体張って案内してくれます。船酔いしやすい方は酔い止め飲んできてから参加したほうがいいと思います。

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Dinner - Hawaii Forest & Trail

Great Experience - Great tour

Reviewed by: Athan

the views from the top of Mauna Kea are breathtaking, despite the cold. Jeff, our host was the best tour guide, funny, friendly and veru knowledgeable of the the tour and the history of the sites. All along the tour he would explain the site you are crossing and the topography.
The star gazing experience is somehting cool for someone neer seen into space before.

Brownies and hot chocolate at the end of the tour is the epitpomy of a great evening.
