Oceanfront Royal Kona Luau with Open Bar - Voyagers of the Pacific Show

Family fun

Reviewed by: Karen , 2022/03/02

Overall, this was a good experience for my family. We went with 3 kids and 6 adults including grandparents. The food was tasty, but not a lot of choices for picky eaters. The show was fun and the kids were thrilled by the fire dancer! Unfortunately, due to Covid restrictions, they did not have any pre-event activities to keep the kids engaged. My daughter really wanted to learn to hula dance as advertised, but they did not have it the night we went. I cannot fault them for taking Covid precautions. Again, overall, the whole family walked away from this happy and with good memories.

Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option

excellent experience for those with disabilities.

Reviewed by: Joline, 2022/02/28

Incredible experience. Was concerned about the cost but definitely well worth it. They went above and beyond to make the to her accessible for my daughter who has cerebral palsy and challenges walking. The pilot was phenomenal with his knowledge base and engaging us in answering questions. Doing the early morning tour was also great as we did not have a whole lot of clouds and the weather was great.

ワイピオ渓谷 ワゴンツアー 小さなお子様から年配の方もゆったり楽しめる <午前・午後/英語ガイド/貸切あり>

渓谷の自然観光と馬車移動が楽しい~

Reviewed by: Sachi, 2022/02/22

2020年3月12日 コロナがはやり始めた頃。マスク着用して参加。
集合場所までレンタカーで行き、3組ほどがワゴンに乗り込み渓谷へ。ワゴン車内は冷房ガンガン。外は日差しが強くて暑い。途中下車して雄大な景色を楽しみ、トイレ休憩もあり。ワゴンを降りて、オープンスタイルの馬車で移動。ガタガタ揺れますがのんびりと景色を楽しむにはとても良いです。帰りのワゴンからも雄大な景色を観ながら戻ります。半日かけてトレッキングして滝の近くまで行く方々に出会いました。ツアーは、滝の近くには行かれませんが、歩かず、乗り物で観光できるのは便利です。

  • 帰りのワゴン

  • 馬車は、3組乗車してゆっくり1周。

Big Island Whale Watching Cruise from Waikoloa - Hawaii Nautical [Dec-Mar]

Whale watching near hilton for the masses

Reviewed by: Aki, 2022/02/21

Overall it's an must do cruise to go out on the ocean on a Catamaran near the Waikoloa area.

We saw whales from far off as it was afternoon and the bigger ship is not attractive to the whales.

We would do the morning trip on the powerboat with fewer people or go for the sunset cruise.There is not much info provided during the cruise so it's lacking the fun in whale watching as it can be boring if nothing happens.

It would also be better if there was a spotter pointing to the breaches as it happens very quickly and multiple people spotting can be confusing.

After you get on board you are mostly left on your own and the boat only goes less than half a mile out.

We saw more whales from the shore than on the boat but it was good to get out on the ocean with this cruise.

Kailua-Kona Sunset Cocktail with Free Drinks - Honi Olani Catamaran

Sunset cruise

Reviewed by: Jimbo, 2022/02/18

Once on board everything was terrific. Great staff, perfect weather, good drinks and unexpectedly a chicken dinner with rice and salad was offered. Had we known that - wouldn’t have had late lunch. Would have rated excellent- except the map provided was POOR. Drove around frantically for 25 minutes in marina trying to find where to go. No phone number provided. Fortunately a crew member called us and we made it. Others had same problem.

Big Island Whale Watching Cruise from Waikoloa - Hawaii Nautical [Dec-Mar]

This was an experience of a lifetime.

Reviewed by: Mike Miller, 2022/02/18

Our family’s first experience whale watching was truly impressive. The crew was professional with information and safety. They did not leave out the fun and had a nice variety of refreshments. We did take the 1:30 pm tour and saw many whales.
The confirmation email as to directions to find them was not so great. They are not in front of the Lava Lava restaurant ( which kept us circling for 10 mins) they are to the right of iLava Lava down along the beach 100 yards aprox, is 2 palm trees on the beach w/ small orange sign to check in. You should notice the platoon boat and catamaran out in the water awaiting for you.
Have extra cash available for tip they are worth it.

Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option

Nice ride but watch the front seat upgrade.

Reviewed by: Mike, 2022/02/12

No doubt the ride itself was amazing! We were able to see a ton of the Big Island and our pilot was great.

However, the interaction at the desk was a little shady. When we arrived we had four in our party plus another passenger who was also assigned to our group. As we checked in the receptionist asked if we wanted to upgrade as the two front seats were still available. First off, that seems strange since there are only four seats across the back - obviously someone in a group of five would need a front seat. The problem came when one in my group wanted to upgrade to the front. They charged the full amount for both front seats. Then the receptionist pulled the single passenger to the side, giving her a "free" upgrade to the other front seat... great for her! If it would have been explained that the full price for both seats would be charged then another from my group would have taken the other front rather than give it away. I understand they have to distribute weight, etc. but the way it was handled was less than desirable. It's unfortunate that a shady sales experience soured an otherwise great day.

LOVED IT

Reviewed by: Colleen, 2022/02/01

We had a great time on the shuttle. Our driver, Forest was fun, professional and had so much to share about the area and island. We got to go down to some beautiful spots and get out to take pictures. It was amazing. I highly recommend you take this tour. The windows are out so you don't feel closed in. It is a long way down and up so think long and hard about hiking it. We are so glad we choose to Book this tour-- You will be happy you did! It was an amazing experience.

Perfect birthday celebration

Reviewed by: Ms Jones, 2022/01/20

All of my expectations were delivered. Everything I imagined the Luau would be or could be was beyond my dreams. The staff was wonderful, the waiters were attentive and friendly. There will definitely be a next time to the island. The acknowledgment of birthdays, anniversaries and honeymooners was a joy to see. I met one of the birthday girls and a newly married couple it was a pleasure to celebrate with them all. ALOHA!!

Kealakekua Bay Morning Snorkeling Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch - Sea Paradise

Must Do in Kona!!

Reviewed by: SusanB, 2022/01/13

Wonderful, cheerful, professional staff. Lovely, clean NEW boat. This trip was a thumbs up. We were greeted by Joshua who was happy and briefed us well. On board were Asia, Jesse and Capt. Mike Morgan. This team worked well together to keep us entertained, fed, schooled on area history and safe. All of the gear was in good condition, the food was healthy and served efficiently using pandemic protocols. We were clearly informed of where to snorkel and attended by one or two employees while in the water. We were able to make part of the trip back under sail which was a silent treat. This is a top snorkel area on the island and the Sea Paradise trip is top notch! Top this off with seeing spinner dolphins and five different whales ….. a wonderful way to spend the morning.

  • Under sail

  • Whale!

Delightful Snorkel Cruise

Reviewed by: Grandma Tess, 2021/12/22

Despite a windy day, Captain Cindy was able to find a great place to snorkel. The briefing provided by the captain described the best ways to snorkel. I learned something new! I felt safe as the crew had a member who went on a surfboard to watch over the participants.

I can’t believe the hospitality of the crew— serving drinks, food and snacks with ease.

This was one of the highlights of our trip.

Great experience with Hawaii Nautical

Reviewed by: Irina, 2021/12/20

We saw two whales during our trip! We went on a tour in December, when the whale watching season just started, yet we were lucky to encounter two whales. The tour departed from Waikaloa, which was a bit of a drive from our place in Kona. However, it is supposed to be a better area for spotting whales. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience.
