ケアウホウ湾　シーカヤック＆シュノーケリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／軽食付き＞by オーシャンサファリ・カヤック

The weather was blessed, and the waves were calm! お天気に恵まれ、波も穏やか！

Reviewed by: AKG

The marine activity introduced in the program "Ariyoshi's Summer Vacation" was truly enjoyable. The handsome guide who appeared on the show supported us during the experience.

On the day I participated, there were two groups, making a total of five people: a nice guy as the guide, two Japanese men, and two foreign women. We gathered at the meeting point at 9 AM. The office isn't located on the beach at Keauhou Bay; instead, they transport the kayaks using a pickup truck and trailer. We headed towards a general location, and if we were unsure, there were offices of other activity tour companies nearby where we could show our voucher and kindly ask for directions.

In the program, it seemed that the waves were too high to enter the caves, but on the day I participated, we were able to experience everything without any issues. We even got to dive from a considerable height of cliffs, which made the activity feel incredibly fulfilling.

After the tour, I was invited to lunch, but I had other plans for the afternoon, so I declined. However, I think I would have enjoyed it if I had gone.

When getting out of the water during snorkeling, there were times when the waves pulled us back, causing some scrapes and cuts on the lava rocks. One of my companions actually got a small cut on their finger and foot. I recommend bringing not only marine shoes but also marine gloves.

有吉の夏休み、という番組でも紹介されたマリンアクティビティ。まさに、その時番組に出てた男前ガイドさんがサポートしてくれました。
私が参加した日は2組の参加、ナイスガイのガイドさん、日本人男性2名、外国人女性2名の合計5名のツアーでした。
午前9時に現地集合。ケアウホウ湾のビーチにオフィスがあるわけではなく、ピックアップトラックとトレーラーにカヤックを載せて運んでくるスタイル。だいたいの場所を目指して行き、わからなければ他のアクティビティツアー会社の事務所があるので、バウチャーを見せて聞けば親切に案内していただけました。
番組では、波が高く洞窟には入れなかったようですが、私の参加した日は問題なくすべて体験できました。相当な高さのクリフからもダイブすることが出来、アクティビティのやった感は半端ないです。
ツアー終了後にランチに誘われましたが、午後からの予定を別に組んでいたためお断りしましたが、行っても楽しめただろうな～。
シュノーケリングから岩場に上がる際、波の引き戻しで溶岩の岩場で擦り傷切り傷を負うことがあり、実際に同行者が指と足を少しだけ切りました。マリンシューズだけでなくマリングローブの持参がお勧めです。

I was a bit anxious about getting to the meeting place by rental car, but with Google Maps, it was fine. Some people arrived a little late, but we waited cheerfully while chatting with the guide and everyone else. Before the tour started, we enjoyed eating naturally grown bananas and macadamia nuts while chatting. I don't speak English particularly well, but the horses are smart, so I had no worries. The guide was also a bright and fun person, making it the best memory of my trip.

レンタカーで集合場所まで行くので少し不安でしたが、グーグルナビがあれば大丈夫。
少し遅れて来た方もいらっしゃいましたが、ガイドさんやみんなで和やかにお喋りしながら待ちました。
ツアー開始まで、自然になっているバナナやマカデミアナッツを食べて談笑。
私は英語は特別には出来ませんが、馬がお利口なので、心配無し。
ガイドさんも、明るく楽しい方で、旅行中一番の思い出になりました。

My sister and her husband were very satisfied and returned with excitement. They mentioned they would definitely do it again next time.

ドルフィン・クエスト　イルカと触れ合えるプログラムが充実！キッズ向けプログラム＜ヒルトン・ワイコロア・ビレッジ内＞

A valuable experience 貴重な体験

Reviewed by: W-MOM

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。

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

breathtaking view 絶景

Reviewed by: F.K

This was my first time horseback riding. We drove down to the Waipi'o Valley from the meeting point in a car driven by our guide, received a horseback riding lecture, and the guide selected horses that suited each of us. From there, we rode on our own.

At first, I was anxious, but the horses are well-trained, so while there were a few minor scuffles between them, they didn't act out in any significant way. This activity allows you to enjoy the scenery and horseback riding at a walking pace, so if you're looking to gallop, you might find it lacking.

The guide uses Japanese for words like "danger" and "single file," but explanations about the scenery and plants are in English, so if you prefer those explanations in Japanese, I recommend looking for another company.

I was able to see some precious landscapes, so I would love to participate in this activity again the next time I visit the Big Island.

乗馬はほぼ初めてでした。
ワイピオ渓谷の下までは集合場所からガイドさん運転の車で下り、乗馬のレクチャーを受け、ガイドさんがそれぞれに合った馬を選んでくれます。そこからは１人で乗馬です。
最初は不安でしたが、馬はよく訓練されているので、馬同士のちょっとした小競り合いはあるものの、特段暴れたりすることもありません。
歩く速度で景色と乗馬を楽しむアクティビティなので、馬を走らせたい方には物足りないと思います。
ガイドさんは「あぶない」「一列」などの単語は日本語で言ってくれますが、景色や植物の説明などは英語なので、そういった説明を日本語で受けたい方は別の会社を探した方がいいと思います。
貴重な風景が見られたので、次にハワイ島へ行く時もまた参加したいアクティビティです。

When I go to the Big Island, I always participate in snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay. At first, I joined the morning session with lunch included, but since this is my sixth time, I now participate in the afternoon session. The catamaran is comfortable and has a restroom. The Captain Cook monument and the bay right in front of you are truly beautiful, with dense coral and lots of tropical fish! I think this is the best place in Hawaii to see fish clearly. Japanese visitors staying on the Big Island tend to go to other tourist spots, and there are usually only Westerners participating in the snorkeling tours, but I really hope everyone can experience this beautiful underwater world. It was a thoroughly satisfying snorkeling experience!

Thanks to the first day of Golden Week, we were lucky to have the place to ourselves and could paddle at our own pace.

Both of us were complete beginners at kayaking, but we were taught very carefully, and their Japanese was excellent, which made us feel at ease.

We were able to enjoy snorkeling at a leisurely pace without feeling rushed until we were satisfied. They even provided us with food, which attracted a lot of fish.

However, despite the cloudy sky, I ended up getting a good sunburn, so I recommend applying plenty of sunscreen.

My first kayaking experience left my arms tired, but I enjoyed the ocean in Hawaii.

I rode a horse named Cisco in the refreshing breeze and strolled through the wide ranch with my wife. Since I had some riding experience, it was particularly comfortable to stray a little from the group. It seemed that more than half of the ten people were riding for the first time. I think they can enjoy it as well. Anyway, riding through the grasslands while taking in the gentle distant views of the wide hills is the best.

Many mantas... たくさんのマンタが....

As we moved to the point where we could see manta rays while watching the sunset, we waited for a few minutes, holding onto the side of the boat. The first manta only briefly showed itself. After that, it didn’t appear for several minutes, and I started to wonder if that was all we would see... but then, suddenly, there were so many mantas! They performed flips right in front of us. A manta with its mouth wide open, another showing its belly while flipping— it was truly a manta extravaganza. It was a moment that only those who have experienced it can understand. The return trip on the boat was cold, so wearing a windbreaker or other warm clothing is essential.

夕日を見ながらマンタの見えるポイントへ移動。

During the tour, the friendly kindness of our Japanese guide, Nana, and the fun stories from the local company president, who was both approachable and playful, made for great memories, along with the beautiful coastal views near sunset. We also had the delightful service of having wonderful photos taken at various spots, which were sent to us later.

Horseback riding in the canyon. 渓谷の乗馬散歩

Reviewed by: AKKIE.O

This was my second horseback riding experience on the Big Island, and I really wanted to go to Waipi'o Valley, so I joined my husband. I have some riding experience, so I had no problem with that, but there were eight people max, and everyone except us was from Europe or America. It was disappointing that I couldn't understand the guide's explanations about the plants. We had fun crossing streams and taking pictures in the valley's scenery. Crossing the river was thrilling, but we only walked the whole time. There was no fast walking or trotting. For that kind of riding, it seems better to go to a ranch. If you want to go to Waipi'o Valley on your own, it looks like the only option is to walk down a steep slope like the ones in Hakone, so I recommend joining a tour.

２回目のハワイ島での乗馬、どうしてもワイピオ渓谷に行きたくて夫と参加しました。私は乗馬の経験があるので乗ること自体は問題ないのですが、人数も8人Maxで私たち以外は欧米の方、ガイドの方が植物の説明などしてくださるのが全く分からず残念でした。渓流の中を渡ったり、渓谷の景色の中写真を撮ってくださったり、楽しかったです。川を渡るのはドキドキしましたが、終始歩くのみ。速足、駆足はありません。そういう乗馬は牧場のほうがよさそうです。自分でワイピオ渓谷に行くには、箱根の山のもっと傾斜のきつい坂を歩いて下っていくしかなさそうなので、ツアーの参加がおすすめです。

Kayaking adventure for sure!

Reviewed by: Laurie

Overall, a beautiful adventure on the ocean. A few comments:

1 - waiting area prior to launching kayaks is full of mosquitoes and my children received many bites
2 - if you are not with a partner and have to go in a single kayak vs. tandem, know this is extra work as simply you don't have 4 arms paddling :-)
3 - the resting spot before heading back to the boat dock requires you to "climb" up a volcanic rock to have your snack/water - make sure you have proper water/outdoor shoes on as you will need that traction to climb up and then walk amongst the rocks; this applies to attire as well as my girls had bikini bottoms on and it was difficult to sit on the rocks with just their bikini bottoms and no towels etc (we did not know we would be stopping at that rock nor climbing up it so hence did not bring anything)
4 - this adventure is going up and back from the boat dock vs. being picked up after a one way paddle

Participated with my 6-year-old and 9-year-old sons. 6歳、9歳男子を連れて参加

Reviewed by: プクナオ

I chose this plan because other tour companies didn't offer the opportunity for my 6-year-old child to enter the sea and see manta rays.

It was wonderful to see the manta rays flipping in the air up close, and I was satisfied with this precious experience. The surfboat had a blue light that attracted plankton in the center, and there were ropes around the surfboat for participants to hold onto. While holding onto the rope and peering into the water, we could see manta rays coming to eat the plankton drawn in by the blue light.

We headed to the point from Honokohau Harbor on a speedboat, which was incredibly fast and bumpy. My 6-year-old was really scared at first and clung to me. It seemed like they finally got a little used to it just before we arrived at the point. They said it would take about 20 minutes to reach the point, but it felt longer. The speed was so fast that the front of the boat would hop up and down, making it feel like a roller coaster, which was scary even for me as an adult. The manta rays were very impressive, and my children are saying they want to participate again.

6歳の子供が、海に入ってマンタを見られるのが他のツアー会社にはなかったので、こちらのプランを申し込みました。

マンタの宙返りを間近で見られたのは、とても良かったし、貴重な経験ができたので満足です。サーフボートの中央にプランクトンを集めるブルーライトがついていて、サーフボートの周りに参加者がつかまる用のロープが付いています。そのロープにつかまりながら、海の中を覗くと、ブルーライトに引き寄せられたプランクトンを食べにマンタがやってくるスタイルです。

ホノコウハーバーから、スピードボートでポイントに向かうのですが、凄いスピードかつ、揺れも凄いので6歳の子供は初めはすごく怖がって、私にしがみついていました。ポイントに着く直前位にやっと少し慣れたようでした。ポイント到着まで大体20分と言うことでしたが、もっと長かったように思います。スピードが早くてボートの先端がホッピングするように浮いたり着水したりするので、ジェットコースターに乗っているような感覚で、大人の私も怖かったです。マンタ、とても感動したので、子供達はまた参加したいと言っています。

I participated with my two high school daughters as a family of four. Although it was a group lesson, it turned out to be just our family since there were only four of us. We met on-site, and since we were staying in Keauhou, it was convenient to have both the beach and the office nearby.

First, we went to the office at 8:00 for an explanation and some preliminary practice, and then we made our way to the beach on our own. The beach was about a five-minute walk from the office. When we arrived, two instructors were waiting for us, and they taught the four of us. We took turns surfing in pairs, while the others rested by holding onto a float. The friendly lady who explained everything and the two instructors mentioned they were siblings or cousins and that they were doing this as a family.

Everything was in English, but we had no problem participating. I think their names were Jacob, John, and Tiffany. They were very friendly and cheerful. My daughters seemed to have so much fun that they even expressed a desire to surf again.

Let's take a look at the Big Island of Hawaii from above! ハワイ島を上空から見てみよう！

Reviewed by: カレンのママさん

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。
ヘリ飛行の初体験をぜひハワイ島で！おススメします。

Afternoon snorkeling

Reviewed by: Steve F

Crew was super friendly and organized. Boat had nice restrooms and was very easy to get in and out of water. Not huge amount of fish but relatively easy snorkel experience. Crew gave short history lesson of the area and Captain Cook. Snacks were chips and fresh fruit.

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　 レジェンズ・オブ・ハワイ（ヒルトンワイコロアビレッジ）＜日・火・金催行／ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題＞

The luau on the Big Island of Hawaii is ハワイ島のルアウは

Reviewed by: pao_pao

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。
