Hawaii Zipline Tours - Big Island Waterfall & Rainforest Zip Adventure

Monique and Byron were awesome!!

Reviewed by: SoCalFam

It was a perfect day! The plantation was BEAUTIFUL and we learned so much about all the native and non-native agricultural while walking to the next platform. Byron and Monique were amazing and had our family laughing the whole time! Totally making everyone feel at ease. The tips they provided ensuring we got the most out of each ”zip”were a huge help and made the adventure just that much more fun. We would do it all again in a heartbeat!

Umauma Falls Hilo Zipline Tours on the Big Island - 9 Lines with Optional Waterfall Swim & Lunch

Great Activity!

Reviewed by: Jon

The zip line experience was excellent! Ages 8-45 in our group all loved it!!
We weren’t sure about the waterfall swim/kayak, the kids said this was their favorite part of the time at Umauma, even better than zip lining!!

Highly recommended for people of almost any age!!

Hawaii Glass Bottom Boat Scenic Cruise from Waikoloa by Ocean Sports | Kids 0-5 Ride for Free

Glass Bottom boat tour

Reviewed by: Angel

The crew and view was amazing! You can see A-Bay at its best. Blue waters, sea turtles and beautiful fish. Calm waters and blue skies with shade. Kids will absolutely live this short and safe tour. Bring your swimsuits for afterwards and enjoy the sandy coastline. Plenty of trees, restrooms. The Marriott has a walking trail with fish ponds too! Mahalo, Angel

It was great. よかったです

Reviewed by: sho

The luau show and the buffet-style dinner were both great. The free-flowing Hawaiian cocktails were also a nice touch. The price was a bit high, but it was worth the splurge.

ルアウショーもビュッフェスタイルの夕食もよかったです。フリードリンクのハワイアンカクテルも。料金はお高めでしたが、奮発した甲斐がありました。

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー ボイジャーズ・オブ・ザ・パシフィック(ロイヤルコナリゾート内)<月・火・水・金催行/ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

A show while watching the sunset. 夕焼を見ながらのショー

Reviewed by: Ludwig

I arrived about 10 minutes ago and took a seat in the middle. It seemed that the seats in the front were reserved separately, so I couldn't choose those.
I used the hotel parking lot, and the staff took note of my number. I wonder if it was discounted? It was $5.
I enjoyed the show, and the food was delicious and representative of Hawaii. The sunset was also wonderful.
However, I felt that the number of dishes was a bit lacking considering the price.

10分前ぐらいに着き、真ん中ぐらいの席に着きました。前方の席は別予約の席となっているようで、選べませんでした。
ホテルの駐車場を利用しましたが、係の人が番号をメモを取っており、安くなったのか?5ドルでした。
ショーは楽しめましたし、料理もハワイらしいもので味は良かったと思います。夕日も素晴らしかったです。
ただ金額からすると品数が少なかったように思いました。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー 滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く!<午前・午後/英語ガイド/食事付>by フェアウィンド号

I was moved by the beautiful sea! きれいな海に感動❗

Reviewed by: ヨッピー

I participated on August 9, when there was an impact from the typhoon. Since I was staying in Waikoloa and there were strong winds with whitecaps, I thought this might be canceled as I headed to the port. However, the area around Keauhou Bay was very calm and sunny ☀️, and I was moved by the wonderful scenery and the blue of the ocean. It was a tour that even a couple like us, who are nearing retirement age, could enjoy very much. The staff were cheerful and kind, and we had a fun day. It was fascinating how the weather varied so much in different places on the Big Island.

参加したのは、台風の影響がある8月9日でした。ワイコロアに宿泊していたので強風で白波も立っていたので、これは中止かな?と思いながら港に向かいました。ところが、ケアウホウ湾の方はとても穏やかで快晴☀️、素晴らしい景色と海の青さに感動的しました。私たちのような還暦近くの夫婦でもとても楽しめるツアーでした。スタッフの皆さんが明るく親切で1日楽しかったですハワイ島は、場所によってずいぶんとお天気が違うので不思議でした。

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 水~土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能<フライト100分/英語パイロット/ワイコロアヘリポート>

Absolutely! 是非是非!

Reviewed by: Dr.Evazan

- Just getting on the helicopter is exciting.
- If you're in the front seat, the excitement during takeoff is even greater.
- The explanation of the mountains by the Japanese pilot Toshi (also known as Sushi) is easy to understand.
He also responds well to active questions.
- I’m glad I purchased the in-flight and flight path recording. The change in passengers' expressions during takeoff was a nice memory.
- I wish I had added the landing option near the waterfall.

・ヘリコプターに乗機するだけでも興奮する.
・前席であれば、離陸時の興奮はより高まる.
・日本人パイロットのToshi(別名sushi)の山の説明もわかりやすい.
 積極的質問にも対応してくれる.
・乗機中の機内&航路記録は購入して良かった.離陸時の乗客の表情の変化も記念になりました.
・滝付近に着陸オプションをつければ良かったです.

Mauna Kea Evening Stargazing & Daytime Solar Viewing Tour with Dinner

One of the best event I had in my life!!!

Reviewed by: GopiK

This whole event and trip was astonishing. I never had an opportunity to see the sky like this ever before. The trip was well organized and our guide Nate was so brilliant and he explained each and every part of the sky so beautifully in addition to having us watch different planets through the extraordinary telescope that he brought. The whole sky is so active in the night where we were able to see bunch of shooting stars, starlink satellites and other individual ones. I probably will do this again next time when I am in Big island!!

ハワイ島 乗馬ツアー コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬! <午前・午後/英語ガイド>by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

It was fun! 楽しかった〜

Reviewed by: とっちー

I had a really fun time, sometimes trotting and sometimes slowly herding cattle in the magnificent scenery.

It seems that horses have various personalities; there were horses that could walk almost automatically for children, while adults had to give proper instructions, and larger horses for well-built foreigners. There were a total of 10 participants, and they selected horses that suited each person, explaining, "This horse is..." when it was time to ride.

The explanations were in English, but they spoke slowly for the Japanese participants, so it was relatively easy to understand (the difference in speaking speed for native speakers was quite noticeable, haha). However, if it's your first time riding, it might be tough if you can't understand and speak English well.

雄大な景色の中、時に駈歩したり、牛を追ったり(ゆっくり)、すごく楽しい時間を過ごせました。
馬は、色々性格があるらしく、子供にはほぼ自動運転で歩ける子、ちゃんと指示出さないといけない子には大人、体格のいい外国の方には大きな子…と合計10名の参加でしたが、それぞれに合わせた馬を選択してくれ、乗る時に「この子は…」説明してくれました。
英語での説明でしたが、日本人にはゆっくり喋ってくれていたので比較的わかりやすかったです(ネイティブの方に対するトークスピードの差が凄かった笑)。
ただ…初めての乗馬だと、ちゃんと英語を理解して喋れないとキツいかもしれません。

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 水~土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能<フライト100分/英語パイロット/ワイコロアヘリポート>

A special experience where you can feel the nature of Hawaii. ハワイの自然を感じることのできる特別な体験

Reviewed by: Mucho6

The price is a bit steep, but since I came all the way to Hawaii, I decided to participate without hesitation.

In the end, I think I spent my money wisely!

First of all, riding in a helicopter is something I rarely get to do, and the experience of the helicopter's sway was incredibly valuable.

I was able to fully enjoy views that I couldn't see from the ground, and I am very satisfied.

If I had one point to mention, it would be that if you're not good at English, it might be safer to request a Japanese-speaking driver, even if it incurs some additional fees.

We understood some of what was being said on the English tour, but the explanations about history and local information while actually seeing the sights made a big difference in how much we absorbed.

料金は少し値をはりますが、ハワイまできたのでそこは思い切って参加してみました。

結果いいお金の使い方をしたと思っています!

まずヘリに乗ることなんてなかなかない中でヘリの揺れなんかも大変貴重な体験でした。

景色も地上からは見れない景色を存分に楽しめることが出来て満足しています。

一点だけあるとすると、やはり英語が苦手であれば多少追加料金はかかりますが、日本人の運転手にお願いしたほうが無難だと思います。

我々は英語のツアーで多少は言ってることがわかるものの、やはり歴史やその土地の情報なども実際に見ながら説明してくれるので吸収力が違うと思います。
