This was my second time at the luau show, and both adults and children enjoyed it. Among the performances, the fire dance was particularly impressive and definitely worth seeing.
今回で2回目のルアウショーでしたが、大人も子供も楽しめました。
その中でもファイヤーダンスは見応えがあり、一見の価値ありです。

This was an amazing experience. Our captain and the diver were really great. While we were "waiting" for the mantas to arrive, our diver went to the ocean floor to pick up some sea urchins and sea cucumbers to show us. He put them back of course, but it made the trip even more interesting. Them the mantas arrived and put on an amazing show!

My 10-year-old son had an experience there. As mentioned in other reviews, the language barrier and budget are issues. I've been interested in Dolphin Quest for a while and thought I would let him participate if the opportunity arose. My son, who doesn't speak much English, joined a group with other foreign families and seemed to enjoy touching the dolphins. My wife and I, who did not participate, watched from the sidelines. While the pricing may be set based on costs for caring for the dolphins and labor, I thought it would be easier to participate if there were more discounts available. The photo prices are also high.
息子10歳が体験してきました.他の方の口コミにもあるように,英語と予算が問題になりますね.ドルフィン・クエストは以前から気になっていて,チャンスがあったら参加させようと思っていました.あまり英語のできない息子は,他の外人の家族のグループに入ってイルカに触れたり,それなりに楽しそうにしていました.参加しない家内と小生は,周りで見学です.イルカを飼育していくための経費とか,人件費などで料金設定されているのかもしれませんが,もう少し利用料金の割引などあると参加しやすいのかなぁ,と思いました.写真も高いです.

On November 6th, I participated with a friend, just the two of us. We are in our late 30s. It was my first time kayaking, but I was able to paddle smoothly right away. I thought we would be experiencing it in a bay, but we headed straight out into the open sea. I was a bit surprised, but I didn't feel scared at all.
I also enjoyed snorkeling in a place where no one else was around. You can get some really cool photos too. I just wish we could have seen some dolphins! It was perfect.
You might want to be a little careful about sunburn and seasickness. :) But it was very refreshing and fun!
11月6日に、友人と2人で参加しました。30代後半です。
カヤックは初めてでしたが、すぐにスイスイと漕ぐことができました。湾の中で体験する感じかなぁと思っていたら、がんがん大海原へ。ちょっとびっくりしましたが、こわい思いは全くしなかったです。
誰もいない場所でのシュノーケリングも満喫。かっこいい写真もたくさん撮ってもらえますよ。あとは、イルカに会えたら!カンペキでした。
日焼けと船酔いにはちょっと注意かも。:) でもとても気持ちよくて楽しかったです。

We thoroughly enjoyed thrilling rafting and beautiful snorkeling in the ocean under wonderful weather! The service from the captain and crew was absolutely five-star! In the morning, we were able to swim leisurely before the snorkeling spot at Kealakekua Bay became crowded with boats, and we got to see and even touch many dolphins up close. The sea, sparkling like a jewel, was also very satisfying. My kids (especially my son) were thrilled, saying the captain was an excellent navigator and super cool, and that this was the most fun they’ve ever had on a trip. They can’t wait to join again next time!
★ Sunscreen is a must. Sunglasses and a lightweight beach towel are also essential. It gets quite chilly while swimming. You might not need a hat as it could blow away. Since large bags cannot be taken on the boat, it’s best to bring only what you need in a compact backpack. Sandals are sufficient for footwear. My younger child (9) can swim but borrowed a life jacket from the reception office (which is free, of course). My older child (13) got tired and borrowed a noodle (a floating tube like macaroni) halfway through. Having a noodle makes it easier. There isn’t a specific place to change after returning, so you’ll either stay in your swimsuit or change in the rental car. There was a restaurant and restroom where we disembarked! ★
素晴らしいお天気の中、スリリングなラフティングと美しい海のシュノーケルを存分に楽しみました!なんと言っても、サービス満点なキャプテン&クルーは5つ星間違いなし!朝、ケアラケクア湾のシュノーケルスポットが船で溢れ返ってしまう前にゆっくりと泳げましたし、沢山のイルカを触れるほど間近で見ることもできました。宝石のような輝きの海にも大満足でした。子供たち(特に息子)はキャプテンは操縦がうまくてめちゃくちゃかっこいいし今回の旅で一番楽しかったと大喜びでした。次回も参加したいと大はしゃぎです!
★日焼け止めは必須です。サングラス、それからバスタオルは薄手の物でも必ず持った方が良いです。泳いでいるとだいぶ冷えます。帽子は飛ばされちゃいますのでいらないかと。ボートに大きな荷物は載せられないので、コンパクトなリュックに必要なものだけ持っていくと良いでしょう。履物はサンダルで十分です。
下の子(9)は泳げますが受付事務所でライフジャケットを借りました(もちろん無料です)上の子(13)疲れて途中でヌードル(マカロニみたいな浮くチューブ)を借りました。ヌードルがあると楽です。帰りに着替える場所は特に無いので、水着のままかレンタカーの中で着替えるかになります。下船した所にレストランとトイレがありましたよ★

This is not just about the tour content; it's a bigger issue. I used your service in August, and although I made a proper reservation for four people from Japan, only two reservations were actually confirmed, and the remaining two ended up being walk-ins on the day of the tour. Due to the pricing situation, I emailed Veltra after returning home, but I have been ignored regarding this matter. I will not be using this company in the future.
ツアー内容どうこうの話ではなく、それ以前の問題です。8月にお世話になったのですが、日本からきちんと4名の予約をしていったのに、実際予約が2名分しかとれていなく残りの2名は当日予約になってしまいました。料金の兼ね合いもありveltraさんに帰国後メールを入れましたがそれに関しては無視されています。今後この会社を使うことはありません。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour.
However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused during your trip.
As mentioned in a separate email, your reservation was made for four people in our system, but it seems that the operating company mistakenly secured seats for only two people. Our staff noticed on the day of the tour that your reservation was for four people and that you had paid for it, and they canceled the additional two seats on the spot.
It is truly regrettable that what should have been a wonderful memory from the snorkeling cruise turned into a bitter experience due to our reservation management error. We also apologize for the delayed response to your review. We have taken strict measures to ensure that the operating company does not cause any inconvenience to customers due to such reservation errors in the future.
We take your feedback seriously and, together with the operating company, will strive to improve our services further. Thank you very much for your valuable feedback amidst your busy schedule.

Thank you very much, Yumi, for taking the time to write a review. August is a peak season for many tour companies, and the date you participated, August 15, was also during this busy period. There are only two boat ramps in Keauhou Bay, and we share these ramps with other companies. Everyone usually returns to the boat ramp around noon, so sometimes there can be a wait of about 30 minutes. To avoid keeping you and the other guests waiting, I believe the boat captain who was in charge of your tour returned to Keauhou Bay a bit earlier. I apologize if this caused any disappointment. I'm glad to hear that you were able to swim with the dolphins. It is an honor to hear you say, "I'm glad I participated."
ゆみーさん わざわざお時間を割いてレビューを書いていただき、誠にありがとうございます。8月はどこのツアー会社さんにとてもハイシーズンで、ゆみーさんが参加してくださいました8/15もそのハイシーズンの季節でありました。ケアウホウ湾にはボートランプが二つのみで、そのランプを他社と弊社が共有しております。皆さん12時頃にボートランプに戻ってきますので、時には30分ほど待つこともあります。そこでゆみーさんたちお客様を待たせてしまっては申し訳ないので、ゆみーさんのツアーを担当させていただきましたボートキャプテンが少し早めにケアウホウ湾に戻ってきたのだと思います。残念な思いをさせてしまったとしたら、申し訳ありませんでした。イルカと一緒に泳げたとのこと。それは良かったです。「参加してよかったです」と言っていただき、光栄です。

After watching Miho Kanno on television, I really wanted to join a doorless helicopter tour. Before the tour, we received a thorough briefing, which made me feel secure about getting on the helicopter. Since it was my first time in a helicopter, I expected some turbulence, but it felt smooth as if gliding over the water, so I had no anxiety. I was able to see the lava flowing into the ocean and the steam rising, as well as feel the hot winds. Additionally, we had a bird's-eye view of waterfalls like Rainbow Falls, and my family of three is thrilled to have had the best experience of our lives. After the tour, my wife thanked me for giving her the front seat. According to her, the front seat was the best. Next time, I want to let my daughter sit there. I definitely want to recommend this tour to my friends. Thank you very much.
菅野美穂さんのテレビを見て、どうしても扉なしのヘリツアーに参加したくなりました。ツアー前に丁寧にブリーフィングしていただき、安心してヘリに乗ることができました。初めてのヘリでしたので、揺れることを予想していましたが、水面を滑るような感じで不安はありませんでした。期待していた海に溶岩が流れ込み水蒸気が立ち上るところや溶岩の流れ、その熱風を肌で感じることができました。さらに、レインボーフォールなどの滝を俯瞰することができ、人生最高の体験をできたと家族3人喜んでいます。ツアー後、妻から前の席を譲ってくれてありがとうと感謝されました。妻曰く、前の席は最高だったよとのことです。今度は娘に座らせてあげたいです。友人にも是非紹介したいツアーです。ありがとうございました。

We participated as a family, and on that day, it was just us. We were informed that the sea was in the best condition with no wind since the morning, and it was very reassuring that they spoke to us in Japanese. I had read in reviews that some people get seasick, so I took motion sickness medicine, but I ended up feeling sick myself. The kids were paddling slowly, and we couldn't reach our destination... However, after returning, we were able to snorkel and see beautiful fish, which made us very satisfied. Since it was an early morning plan, we were able to play at a nearby beach on our way back, making the day feel very long and enjoyable.
家族で参加したのですが、その日は、私達だけで、
朝から風もなく海はベストな状態と教えていただき、日本語で話していただけるので、とても安心でした。

I was a bit worried about the 6:40 AM pickup, but I woke up well in the morning, basked in the sunlight, and was able to participate with a refreshing feeling. The pickup location was easy to find, and despite being a small group tour, we were lucky to have just our family. The guide was Japanese, which made it easy to follow along with confidence. It was unfortunate that we couldn't encounter the pod of dolphins that had come close the day before, but snorkeling in the clear sea was a lot of fun.

I found out about an activity where you can swim with dolphins and made a reservation after arriving on-site. There were three groups of six people on the boat. The female captain was very cheerful and kind, allowing everyone to try multiple times until we could swim with the dolphins. Wild dolphins are very fast, so it felt more like a lucky observation rather than swimming together, but seeing the dolphins underwater was incredibly cute and a valuable experience! Swimming with dolphins requires some luck, and they appear for just a moment, so I was very satisfied with choosing a tour that included snorkeling. The water where we snorkeled was extremely clear, and there were many fish! It was beautiful.
However, compared to other dolphin tours, the price is high even without transportation. I think it's understandable due to the small group size. That said, the atmosphere was very homey and enjoyable, and it was nice to learn about Hawaii's history at a relaxed pace. The fruits and tea we had after snorkeling were also very delicious. The speedboat was thrilling, comparable to a roller coaster, and that was one of the fun aspects of the tour! Motion sickness medication is a must! Even with sunscreen, you can get quite sunburned, so I was glad I wore a rash guard!
イルカと泳げるアクティビティがあると知り現地に到着してから予約しました。
乗船したのは3組6名。女性の船長さんはとても明るく優しい方で全員がイルカと泳げるまで何度も挑戦させて下さいました。野生のイルカはとても速く、一緒に泳ぐというよりは泳いでいるのを観察できたらラッキーという感じですが水中で見るイルカはとても可愛くて貴重な経験になりました!イルカと泳ぐには運も必要だし、イルカがいるのは本当に一瞬なのでシュノーケリング付きのツアーにした事で満足度がかなり上がりました♪シュノーケリングをした海は透明度がすごくて魚もたくさん!とてもキレイでした☆
ただ、他のイルカツアーに比べると、送迎無しにも関わらず値段が高いです。少人数制なので仕方ないとは思います。その分アットホームな雰囲気で楽しかったですし、ハワイの歴史などもゆっくりと教えて頂けたのは良かったです。シュノーケリングの後に頂いたフルーツもお茶もとっても美味しかったです☆
高速船はジェットコースター並の迫力でそれもこのツアーの楽しさの1つでした☆酔い止めは必須です!日焼け止めを塗っていてもかなり焼けるので、ラッシュガードを着ておいてよかったです!
Thank you, Kiki, for taking the time to write a review. Yes, the highlight of our tours is providing a small group experience (with a maximum of six people) in a homey atmosphere. Additionally, since we operate our own boat, you won't have to share with other companies. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay, which is a marine protected area.

This was my first experience with my family. Personally, it was my third time, but I’ll briefly outline the pros and cons.
First, the pros:
1. The marina is very close to the points, so the total travel time is short.
2. The boat is large and comfortable.
3. There was a child who gets seasick on board, but since the points are close, I think it was relatively easy for them.
Now, the cons:
1. The explanations are only in English, but I don’t think that will be a problem.
2. The journey is short, so you can’t enjoy the scenery of Kona town.
Depending on the timing, I think the LED lights were strong, and we had a relatively good number of sightings.
I plan to come back here next time as well.
家族連れでは初体験でした。
個人的には3度目でしたが簡単に長所と短所を書いておきます。
まず長所
1、マリーナからポイントまでが非常に近くに全行程の所要時間が短くて済む。
2、船が大きくて快適。
3、船酔いしやすい子が同船してましたがポイントまでが近いので比較的楽だと思います。
で短所
1、英語の説明しかないが困る事は無いと思う。
2、道中が短いのでコナの街の景色を眺める事が出来ない。
タイミングにもよると思いますがLEDのライトが強く比較的沢山来てくれたと思います。
次回からもここにしようと思います。

There are many fish in the shallow area. I was surprised when I was surrounded by yellow tangs.
It's also recommended for energetic kids to slide down from the boat's slide or jump off the diving board.
If you're not confident or worried about getting tired, you can wear a floatation belt around your torso for peace of mind.
Breakfast and lunch are enjoyable on the boat. The meat for the lunch burgers is freshly grilled on the boat and delicious.
I also got to see dolphins.

I was hesitant to participate because the price was high, but I really wanted to see the red lava, so I decided to join.
The helicopter with doors had a pilot plus six passengers, while the doorless helicopter had a pilot plus four passengers.
Check-in time is one hour before departure. I parked my rental car in the airport parking lot and paid about $7 at the parking lot exit on my way back. Luggage is generally left at the reception. If you want to bring items like cameras or smartphones, they must have a strap, so be careful. A short strap can be purchased for $2. I brought my smartphone in a waterproof cover with a strap since it couldn't have a strap attached. Long hair needs to be tied up.
Forty minutes before departure, we watched a video about lava and volcanoes, followed by a safety briefing from the staff regarding seat belts and other instructions.
It was my first time on a helicopter, so I was scared at first, but the view of the Big Island from above was wonderful. It rained on and off that day, and there were moments of heavy rain on the ground, but we were able to depart without any issues, and I didn't get wet inside the doorless helicopter. On the way to the volcano, we saw vast macadamia nut fields. I could easily spot the ocean entry from the smoke rising, but I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't see the red lava. Along the way, we circled above the area where the red lava was visible among the black lava fields, allowing us to take photos. They circled so that both sides could take pictures, which made me a little nauseous.
At the crater, most of the surface was black, but I was very moved to see some red lava bubbling. (It was something I personally really wanted to see.)
After that, we returned to Hilo through breaks in the clouds. Along the way, we saw several waterfalls and the streets of Hilo. The pilot provided explanations in English throughout.
The flight lasted just under an hour, but I was very satisfied to see the red lava, adding to the extraordinary experience of being in a helicopter. I also considered a boat tour to see the ocean entry, but based on the activity in August 2017, it seemed that the ocean entry wasn't flowing with a lot of red lava, so I felt glad to have participated in this tour where I could directly see the red lava inside the crater.
値段も高いので参加を迷っていましたが、赤い溶岩をどうしても見てみたくて参加しました。
ドアありがパイロットプラス6人乗りのヘリコプターでドアなしはパイロットプラス4人乗りのヘリコプターでした。
チェックイン時間は出発時間の1時間前。
レンタカーは空港の駐車場に停めて帰りに駐車場の出口で7ドル?くらい払いました。
荷物は基本受付に預けて置いていきます。
カメラやスマホなど持ち込みたいものはストラップ付きでないと不可なので気をつけて。
短いストラップが2ドルで買えます。
ストラップのつけられないスマホはストラップ付きの防水カバーに入れて持ち込みました。
長い髪は束ねる必要があります。
出発時間の40分前から溶岩・火山に関するビデオを見た後に係員によるシートベルトなどの説明がありました。
ヘリコプターが初めてだったので最初は怖かったけど上空から見るハワイ島の景色はとても素敵でした。
この日は雨が降ったり止んだりで、地上では一瞬強い雨の時もあったけど問題なく出発できましたし、ドアなしでも機内で濡れることはなかったです。
ボルケーノに向かう途中では広大なマカダミアナッツ畑が見れました。
オーシャンエントリーは立ち上る煙で遠くからすぐわかりましたが赤い溶岩は見えなくて少しがっかり。
途中、黒い溶岩の大地の中で赤い溶岩が見えているところの上空を旋回して写真を撮らせてくれたりしました。左右どちらに乗っても撮れるように旋回してくれたので若干酔いました。
火口では表面の大部分が黒いですが、一部赤い溶岩がふつふつと動いているのが見れてとても感動しました。
(個人的にとても見たかったものなので)
その後は雲の切れ間を通りヒロへと帰還。
途中いくつかの滝を見たりヒロの街並みが見れます。
パイロットが英語でひたすら説明してくれます。
合計1時間弱のフライトでしたがヘリコプターという非日常に加えて念願の赤い溶岩が見れて大満足でした。
オーシャンエントリーが見られる船のツアーとも迷いましたが2017年8月の活動の様子だとオーシャンエントリーではがっつり赤い溶岩が流れてくるというわけではなさそうな感じがしたので火口の内部の赤い溶岩を直接見ることができたこのツアーに参加して良かったと思いました。
