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

Manta Ray Swim

Reviewed by: Tony

I had a great time the guides very very knowledgeable and helpful. It was amazing how close the Manta Ray came to use as we were on the surface hanging to a raft. If I go back this is one thing I will differently do again.

ワイピオ渓谷 　乗馬ツアー　＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ワイピオ・オン・ホースバック

It was well trained. 良く調教されていました

Reviewed by: ハワイ島リピーター

We participated as a couple.
I was worried about the explanations in English, but the horses were well-trained, and I felt safe riding as long as I trusted the horse.
Even if you're not good at English, there's no need to feel anxious about horseback riding.
During the horseback riding course, we couldn't see the ocean, but Waipi'o Valley is a scenic spot with ocean views, so it was great to enjoy it on the way back.
We left Keauhou at 7:00 and arrived at 8:30.
There is only a simple Western-style toilet available.
If you go about 1 km towards the Waipi'o Tour Center, there is a drive-in, so it might be better to use that.

夫婦二人で参加しました。
英語での説明に不安がありましたが、馬が良く調教されていて、馬に任せていれば安心して騎乗できました。
英語が不得意でも乗馬については不安を感じる必要はまったくありませんでした。
乗馬コース中、海は見えませんでしたがワイピオ渓谷自体は海の見える景勝地なので帰りに堪能できて良かったです。
ケアウホウを7時に出発して8時30分に到着しました。
トイレは簡易式の洋式トイレしかありません。
ワイピオツアーセンター方面に1Kmくらい進むとドライブインがあるのでそちらを利用したほうがいいかもしれません。

Swimming with rays

Reviewed by: Dorotka

It was an amazing experience ! Like an underwater ballet with a bit of adrenaline because even you know that rays are completely harmless and gentle you are still swimming in the middle of the ocean at night .There were at least 25 of them that night passing sometimes within an inch of our biddies, it felt like gentle caressing. I think it was my favorite activity and we did practically everything there is to be done on the Island (from extreme to leisure ) Definitely recomend it

Reviewed by: Shu

The hula dance and fire action were beautiful, powerful, and very entertaining. The food and drinks were quite ordinary, but I think the service was pretty good. If you have the time, I recommend arriving a little before the meeting time. Seats are assigned in the order of arrival, so this time we were in the front row. Because of that, we were able to enjoy a spectacular show.

フラダンスとファイアーアクションは、きれいで迫力があり、とても面白いです。
食事とお酒はごく普通の内容ですが、サービスはかなり良いと思います。

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＞

The best memories. 最高の思い出

Reviewed by: m.t

This was my first time participating in this tour, and I chose to go directly to the meeting place on my own, but I wasn't quite sure where to go and ended up asking someone for directions to finally arrive. I felt that arranging for a pickup would have been smoother and more reassuring.

The tour guide, Torichan, was a wonderful person, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

The manta rays were very large, and seeing them swim right in front of me was breathtaking. They came so close that their bellies almost touched mine. They were much bigger than I had imagined, but I felt no fear at all. I was just so excited. Their adorable faces and the way they swam gracefully were incredibly soothing, and it was truly an emotional experience.

If you're going to the Big Island, I highly recommend participating in this tour. You'll feel the rich nature up close, and the interaction with the manta rays will undoubtedly become a wonderful memory that you'll cherish for a lifetime.

このツアーの参加は初めてで
個人で直接集合場所に向かうプランにしましたがいまいち分からず人に教えてもらいながらなんとか到着。
送迎を頼む方がやはりスムーズで安心だと感じました。

ツアー案内のとりちゃん、とっても素敵なお人柄の方でより一層楽しく過ごせました。

マンタはとても大きく
目の前で泳ぐ姿は圧巻。
マンタのお腹と私のお腹が当たるほど
近距離で近寄ってきてくれました。
想像以上に大きかったですが
怖さは全くなかったです。
とにかく興奮しました。
愛くるしいお顔に、ゆったりと優雅に泳ぐ姿にとても癒され
本当に感動的な体験でした。

ハワイ島行くなら
このツアーに参加することをお勧めします。
豊かな自然をより近くで感じ
マンタとの触れ合いは一生心に残る素敵な思い出になること間違いなしです。

I was looking forward to seeing the manta rays! I thought the waves would be calmer than they actually were. I was moved to see several manta rays swimming gracefully, but it felt like we were luring them in with food... it was more like feeding them than what I had imagined.

But it was still a lot of fun!

野生のイルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングツアー ＜朝食・昼食付き＞

I get seasick, but my wife is very satisfied. 私は船酔い、妻は大満足

Reviewed by: Miya

My wife and I participated together. Due to traveling from Japan the day before, I was sleep-deprived, possibly because of jet lag, and ended up feeling seasick despite the boat not rocking much. I ate the breakfast bread served on board and saw dolphins from the boat, but other than that, I mostly slept.

However, my wife, who loves marine sports, was able to see several dolphins swimming very close by. When we anchored near a cape about an hour away from the pier in Kona, she was very satisfied as she used a snorkel to dive. It seems that for those who already enjoy marine sports, this tour offers a high level of satisfaction.

The staff, who at first glance appeared intimidating, were actually quite kind. While I was waiting for the restroom to become available on the boat, one of the staff quickly noticed and guided me to another restroom. Most participants were American families (Caucasian), but according to my wife, there was an elderly woman of Indian or Southeast Asian descent who seemed to struggle with swimming, yet the staff provided significant support for her diving experience. They are well-prepared to accommodate beginners. However, everything is in English, and they speak quite fast.

Since we were in open waters, there were concerns about sharks, but we were instructed to never stray far from the boat, ensuring safety.

So, originally, I would give this a five-star rating, but due to my seasickness, I have to deduct one star. Since it’s a morning tour, make sure to go to bed early the night before and get plenty of sleep.

妻と二人で参加しました。前日日本からの移動のため、時差ボケのためか寝不足のままツアー参加となり、大した揺れでもないのに私は船酔い。船内で出された朝食のパンを食べ、船内からイルカの姿を見た以外は、ほとんど寝ているという有様。
しかし、もともとマリンスポーツ大好きな妻は、すぐ近くで泳ぐイルカを何頭も見ることができ、コナのピアから1時間ほど船で移動した岬の近くに停泊したときには、シュノーケルを使って潜るなど、大満足。もともとマリンスポーツが好きな人には、かなり満足度が高いツアーのようです。
スタッフも一見コワモテに見えるお兄さんばかりでしたが、実際のところはかなり親切。私が船内のトイレが空くのを待っていたら、目ざとく見つけて別のトイレを案内してくれました。参加者のほとんどはアメリカ人（白人）の家族連れでしたが、妻によるとインドか東南アジア系の老婦人がいて、泳ぎが全くダメそうだったけどスタッフがかなりサポートして潜る体験もできたそう。初心者向けの対応もしっかりしています。ただし、全部英語です。しかもしゃべりが速い。
外洋なのでサメが怖いけど、船の周りからは絶対離れないようにとの指導もあり、安全性も確保されていたようです。
というわけで、本来星５つのことろ、私の船酔いのせいでマイナス１。朝出発のツアーなので、前日は早めに寝てしっかり睡眠をとりましょう。

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＞

Kilauea Volcano Helicopter Tour with Japanese-speaking pilot & hotel pickup available in the Waikoloa area (departing from Waikoloa or Hilo) by Blue Hawaiian Helicopters / Waipi'o Valley and Kilauea Volcano Tour (Kona, Waikoloa area plan) キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 日本語パイロット希望＆ワイコロア地区ホテル送迎OKプランあり＜ワイコロアまたはヒロ発＞ by ブルーハワイアンヘリコプター / ワイピオ渓谷とキラウエア火山遊覧（コナ、ワイコロア地区プラン）

Reviewed by: KyotoMH

Every time I visited the Big Island, I applied for a helicopter tour of Kilauea Volcano, but I never succeeded due to bad weather or unfavorable wind conditions—six times for me and two times for my wife. This year, I wanted to finally make the volcano helicopter tour happen, so I applied to a different helicopter company with a Japanese pilot. However, since I applied close to the date, even foreign pilots were fully booked. Eventually, I managed to secure a reservation with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters, not being particular about having a Japanese pilot.

Fortunately, our helicopter pilot was Japanese. A German father and son who came from Singapore, a Japanese newlywed couple, and my wife and I—six of us in total—took off on this helicopter tour (Photo 1). Although there was quite a strong wind that day, the helicopter was stable, and the ride was comfortable with hardly any significant turbulence. Since there were four Japanese passengers, the pilot provided explanations in Japanese as needed, which made it very easy to understand. We toured both craters of Kilauea and were able to see orange lava, fulfilling a long-held wish (Photos 2, 3). The lava reached the coastline through a lava tunnel, creating steam (Photo 4).

After seeing the volcano at Kilauea, we went to Waipi'o Valley and enjoyed the beautiful coastline (Photo 5). I was very satisfied to see the red lava from the helicopter and returned to the hotel.

これまでハワイ島を訪れる度にキラウエア火山ヘリコプター遊覧を申し込みましたが、私は6回、家内は２回、悪天候、風向きが悪い等の理由で一度も実現したことがありませんでした。今年こそ火山ヘリコプター遊覧を実現したいと日本人パイロットで別のヘリコプター会社に申し込みましたが、期日がせまってからの申込みのため外人パイロットですら予約満杯でした。そしてやっと日本人パイロットにこだわらないとして申し込んだブルーハワイアンヘリコプターの予約が取れました。
幸運にも我々のヘリコプターのパイロットは日本人でした。シンガポールから来たというドイツ人親子（お父さんと息子）、日本人の新婚さん、我々夫婦の6名がこのヘリコプターの遊覧に飛び立ちました（写真１）。この日は結構強い風が吹いてましたがヘリコプターは安定しておりほとんど大きな揺れはなく快適な遊覧でした。日本人が4名乗っていることからパイロットが適宜日本語で説明してくれるのでとてもわかりやすかったです。キラウエアの二つの火口を遊覧しましたが、ともにオレンジ色の溶岩を見ることが出来て長年の願いが叶いました（写真２，３）。火口から溶岩トンネルを通じて海岸線にまで達し水蒸気があがっていました（写真4）。
キラウエアで火山を見た後はワイピオ渓谷に行き、きれいな海岸線を見ました（写真５）。
赤い溶岩をヘリコプターから見ることが出来て大満足でホテルに帰りました。

It was a bit disappointing that it was cloudy. 曇っていたのがちょっと残念

Reviewed by: NNN

It was disappointing that the sea wasn't very beautiful due to the cloudy weather, but I enjoyed a relaxing cruise and snorkeling. You need to get to the meeting point on your own (I took a round-trip bus. I got a bit flustered when I mistakenly went to the wrong bus stop on the way back). The staff primarily speak English, but if you print out your reservation details and show them at the counter, it's fine even if you can't speak English (I can't speak it at all). Also, I forgot to make the pre-call by the day before, but it was no problem when I arrived at the meeting point an hour early on the day of the tour. There seemed to be over 50 people on the tour, and we were the only Japanese, but the local staff were very accommodating and seemed familiar with Japanese people, so there were no issues.

当日は曇っていた為、海がそこまできれいではなかったのが残念でしたが、のんびりクルージングとシュノーケルが楽しめました。
集合場所までは自力で行く必要があります（往復バスで行きました。帰りのバス乗り場を間違えてちょっと焦りました）。スタッフは基本英語ですが、事前に予約内容を印刷していきカウンターで見せれば英語が話せなくても問題ありません（自分は全く話せません）。また、前日までの事前電話を忘れてしまっていたのですが、当日1時間早く集合場所へ行ったら問題ありませんでした。ツアーは50人以上いたようで、日本人は自分たちだけでしたが、現地スタッフは非常に対応が良く、日本人にも慣れているようで問題ありませんでした。

Encounter with a manta ray. マンタと遭遇

Reviewed by: 由美子

I participated with my 81-year-old mother. I was nervous and worried about whether we could do it, but since we just had to hold onto the rope and float with the snorkeling gear on, we managed to experience it. The manta rays came close to us, and both my mother and I were thrilled.

A few points to note: the boat sways, so it's necessary to take motion sickness medication; after the experience, your wet body cools down quickly, so it's good to bring a bath towel and warm clothing; and since the swimsuit gets wet, having a change of underwear or clothes for the return trip is convenient.

I struggled a bit with putting on the snorkeling gear and had to keep putting my face in and out of the water, but I received solid support as a beginner. Thank you very much.

81才の母と参加しました。出来るかなと緊張し、心配していたのですがロープにつかまってシュノーケリングの器具つけて浮かんでいるだけなので何とか体験しました。マンタも近くに来てくれるし母も私もおおはしゃぎでした。
注意点はボートが揺れるので酔い止めが要ること、体験後濡れた体が急速に冷えるのでバスタオルと防寒具持ってくこと、水着が濡れるので帰りは下着など着替えがあると便利なことなどです。
シュノーケリングの装着が上手く出来ずしばらく顔をつけたり上げたりしてたのですが、初心者にもしっかりサポートしてもらえました。ありがとうございました。
