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

We were able to meet Manta Ray as soon as we entered the water.

We were able to meet Manta Ray as soon as we entered the water. ~ I was surprised at the big size but it was a very enjoyable experience. I would like to enjoy Manta Ray by diving after winning the scuba diving certificate

キラウエア火山 ドアなし ヘリコプター遊覧 <英語パイロット/フライト60分/ヒロ空港集合> by パラダイスヘリコプター

A helicopter without doors is incredibly thrilling. ドアなしヘリコプターは、超スリル満点

Reviewed by: fabio

Unfortunately, a few days ago the eruption ended, and I couldn't see the red magma. It's nature, so there's nothing that can be done about it.

Still, seeing the black lava and the great nature of Hawaii from a doorless helicopter was truly moving. I couldn't understand what the English-speaking pilot was saying, but I enjoyed it completely.

As advice, the temperature on the day was 31 degrees, but it was 18 degrees up in the air. I think it's safer to prepare warm clothing.

残念ながら?数日前に噴火が終わってしまい、赤いマグマを見る事が出来ませんでした。自然が相手なのでしょうがないです。
それでも、ドアなしヘリコプターから見る、黒い溶岩やハワイの大自然は感動モノでした。
英語パイロットなので何言ってるかわかりませんでしたが、全然楽しめます。

アドバイスとして、当日の気温は31度でしたが上空は18度でした。
防寒着は用意していったほうが無難だと思います。

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

The scenery is amazing! 景色も最高!

Reviewed by: Tomo

I participated with my high school daughter and husband. This was our third time riding, following the Grand Canyon and Parker Ranch on the Big Island, and we are still beginners. Before we rode, they explained how to ride and safety precautions very slowly and clearly in English. During the ride, they also talked about the ranch and the Big Island, engaging us in conversation, and they guided us in a very friendly and safe manner. We could see the coastline of Kona from the ranch, and the view was outstanding. They kept our valuables in a safe, which was really helpful.

高校生の娘と主人と3人で参加しました。乗馬はグランドキャニオンとハワイ島のパーカーランチに続き3回目の初心者です。乗る前に乗馬の仕方や注意事項をとてもゆっくりと分かりやすく英語で説明してくれましたし、乗っている間も牧場やハワイ島の説明をしてくれたり、いろいろ話しかけてくれて、とてもフレンドリーかつ安全に誘導してくれました。牧場からコナの海岸線も見えて景色も抜群でした。貴重品は金庫に預かってくれ、助かりました。

I requested premium seats, but half of the venue was premium seating, so I didn't feel particularly favored. I did arrive early and was seated in the front row, though. The dancing was excellent, but it was a dinner show with singing and dancing, not a luau ceremony.

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

Fun time for all ages

Reviewed by: Happy in Hawaii

My 7 year old was a bit worried. He's definitely afraid of heights and it took a bit of convincing to get him to even agree to try. Standing on a 65 foot platform ready to zip while dangling 150+ feet over a waterfall and rock river was a bit daunting but once we started there was no turning back. He wanted to do the course again but it was time to head back to Kona. The rest of us all had a blast as well (a 13 year old and 2 old fuddy-duddy parents :-)

The guides know how to have fun and make sure everyone is being safe. They were all really great.

And if you are driving from Kona take a few extra minutes to stop on the way. There are some amazing sights along the way that are very picture worthy.

It was worth it to choose the premium seat. プレミアムシートにした甲斐がありました。

Reviewed by: やまさん

I arrived a little after 5 PM and was surprised to see about 15 people already in line. None of them were Japanese, though...

While waiting, there were drinks available, and since it was in a corridor, the sunlight wasn't an issue.

I completed the check-in without any problems and felt great with the lei around my neck. Since I had a premium seat, I was able to go to the buffet first, which was a relief for someone like me who loves to eat a lot. I was in the fourth row from the front, and my neighbor happened to be Japanese, which made it comfortable.

The staff and the show were all in English, but even if you don't understand, it was enjoyable enough. There were hardly any dishes I couldn't eat, and everything was delicious, leaving me quite full. (The corn was different from what I'm used to in Japan, so I didn't quite like it.)

I wish the photos were a bit cheaper, so I deducted points for that.

17時過ぎには到着しましたが、
既に15人位並んでいてビックリ。皆さん、日本人ではないのに。。。
待っている所ではドリンクもありましたし、通路なので日差しも大丈夫。

受付も問題なく終え、レイを掛けて気分も上々。
プレミアシートだけあって、優先してビッフェを取りに行けたのは、
大食いの自分にとって助かりました。
前から4列目で、隣はたまたまか分かりませんが、日本の方で過ごしやすかったです。
係の方や、ショー自体は英語オンリーですが、分からなくても十分楽しめる内容でした♪
食事も食べれないものは殆ど無く、美味しく頂いて腹が膨れました。

Volcano Lava Ocean Boat Tour - Daytime, Sunrise & Sunset Active Lava Viewing

Must do IT!

Reviewed by: Lady from Taiwan

I did the 17:30 lava boat on 2018/08/06 with my husband. It was really an amazing trip. We took Dramamine 30 minutes before the ride, and both of us were free of sea sick. I wear a poncho but still got wet of my hair. Strongly suggest to bring towels and may consider wearing wool cap and glasses. Actually, the ride of lava boat was really scary to me(one-hour of “roller coaster“ before reaching the lava view~)The sunset in the sea was beautiful, so did the glowing lava in the dark. The lava was easier to be seen in the dark, so the sunrise or sunset boat was recommended.
The trip was made of lots of fun. If you are In good health(especially without herniated disc or heart disease), and with adventurous attitude, the lava boat trip is a "must-do" for you, at least once in a life time!

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>

The seasickness was tough, but everything else was amazing! 船酔いはつらかったけどそのほかは最高!

Reviewed by: ゆっころ

After departing from the port, we spent quite a while on the boat. It was a long ride, and the sea wasn't particularly rough, but including the kids, our family was hit hard by seasickness. So, we couldn't enjoy breakfast...

However, once we arrived at the snorkeling spot and got into the water, the seasickness improved, and everyone was thrilled to be in the deep, clear sea.

On the way back, we encountered dolphins, which was super exciting. But then, shortly after that, I felt nauseous again and ended up resting while returning.

The captain was cheerful and lively, making it a lot of fun. I think the hamburgers for lunch would have been really delicious if we hadn't been seasick!

港を出発して結構な時間、船に乗ります。これがなかなか長く、大して海も荒れているわけでもありませんが、子どもたち含め、我が家は船酔いでダウンしました。ですので、朝ごはんは楽しめず。。。
しかし、シュノーケル場所に到着して、海に入ってしまえば、船酔いもよくなり、深いのに透明な海でみんな大喜びしていました。
帰りの船でイルカに遭遇し、大興奮しました。が、またそのあとげろげろになり、寝ながら戻ったという感じです。
船長も陽気、ノリノリでとても楽しく、お昼のハンバーガーも船酔いしていなかったらとてもおいしかったと思います!

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

I would do it again!

Reviewed by: Ricardo L

It is a must! It is worth! I would do it again. At the beginning, I did not know what to expect, it was a friend recommendation and I thought it would be similar to swim with dolphins actitiviy I did before, but no, it is 10 times better! Getting into the water at night and be so close to these gentle giants was an experience that I will never forget. In less than 10 minutes in the water, we had mantas approaching us. They get very close to you thanks to the powerful lights attracting plâncton. I recommend you take your cell phone in a waterproof case and film. Just keep filming uninterruptly because you don’t know when the mantas will show up. Great experience!

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>

The waves were high... 波が高かった、、、。

Reviewed by: まゆ。

You can choose the tour, but you can't choose the weather. It was a windy day, so the boat was really rocking. Some people were holding their heads and feeling sick (including my son).

According to reviews, it didn't seem like there would be many participants, but on the day we went, I think there were over 50 people on board. The second floor was almost full.

We saw dolphins right after we set off. There were several of them, which was a great start.

It takes about 40-50 minutes to reach the snorkeling point. Once we arrived, we received a safety briefing before heading out to snorkel. The water was clear, and we could see fish and sea urchins. My 4-year-old daughter also put on the fins and goggles we borrowed and swam. The waves were high, so just swimming was quite challenging.

After snorkeling, we enjoyed a waterslide from the boat. It was thrilling but fun.

We had breakfast and lunch on the boat, and the lunch burgers were delicious.

Seeing my son suffering from seasickness and a headache, an American lady said, "Drinking ginger ale will help." However, I'm not sure if that's true.

Anyway, it was tough with the high waves, but it was a very good experience!

ツアーは選べても、天気は選べません。強風の日だったので、ボートがスゴく揺れました。何人かの人が頭を抱え、寝込んでいました。(我が息子もですが。)

口コミでは、そんなに参加者も多くなさそうでしだか、私らが参加した日は、50人以上は乗船していたと思います。二階席もほぼ満席でした。

出発してすぐにイルカは見れました。何頭もいて、幸先良いスタートでした。

シュノーケルポイントまでは、40-50分?乗ります。着いたら安全に関するレクチャーを受けてから、いざシュノーケルに出陣。水は澄んで、魚もウニも見えました。4歳の娘も一丁前に借りた足のフィンとゴーグルを着けて、泳ぎました。波が高かったので、ただ泳ぐのも大変でした。

シュノーケルのあとは、ボートからのウォータースライダー。スリリングだけど、楽しかったです。

朝食もランチもボートで食べましたが、ランチのバーガーは美味しかったです。

船酔いで頭が痛くて仕方なかった息子を見かねて、アメリカンのオバチャマが、"ジンジャエールを飲むと、マシになるよ。"と言っていたものの、定かではありません。

とにかく、波が高くて大変でしたが、とても良い経験が出来ました!

Healing. 癒される

Reviewed by: smile

We participated as a family of four. There were also two couples, making a total of eight people. I think we were on the horses for just under two hours.

Everything was in English, but the staff was very friendly and explained the history of Waipi'o Valley in a way that was easy to understand.

The weather was nice, and riding horses in nature was very relaxing.

While the service wasn't overly luxurious, they took family photos from various angles, and even when there were delays or the line got mixed up, we were guided smoothly without feeling rushed, allowing us to enjoy the scenery with peace of mind.

The kids were very satisfied, so we would like to participate again.

The cat in the stable was cute.

家族4人で参加しました。
他はカップル2組の合計8名でした。
馬に乗っていたのは二時間弱だと思います。

全て英語でしたが、とてもフレンドリーなスタッフでワイピオ渓谷の歴史などもとても分かりやすく説明してくれました。

天気が良かった事もあり、自然の中をのんびりと馬に乗りながらとても癒されました。

至れり尽くせりのサービスではありませんが、家族での写真も色々な角度で撮ってくれましたし、列が乱れたり、遅れたりしても急かされる事なく、上手く誘導してもらえたので、安心して風景を楽しめました。

子供達も大満足だったので、また参加したいと思います。

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Fantastic

Reviewed by: Montalvo Family

We were a family of 7 visiting Hawaii for the first time in July 2018 and swimming with the Mantas sounded like a dream. We went out and was disappointed when only 2 Mantas showed up but I only saw one. To our surprise the captain announced that he planned on going back out later and anyone who wished to go back out was welcomed to stay onboard. Well needless to say we went back out to the south side of the island and to our amazement we were blessed to not only swim with one but with seven Mantas. The experience was outstanding one I will never forget. The captain and crew was courteous and professional and I highly recommend Ocean Encounters.

We were lucky as the weather was cool and cloudy, but did not rain. Our guides were terrific. We had our "safety" talks and felt very comfortable with the safety harness and double clips used.

Out of this world experience

Reviewed by: KL from NJ

The crew were terrific. We had a long lengthy talk about "safety" and what to do and what not to do to keep us and the manta rays safe. Initially, the area looked crowded as there were a handful of boats out in the same area. We booked this excursion early on in our stay as Sea Paradise offers 100% guarantee that we will see manta rays. If we don't, we can come back for free. As we started, the manta rays were swimming underneath us immediately. We had an unusually fantastic night as we were told that normal nights, there were 4 manta rays. Our night, we had 6-8, I loose track. They were so close to us, tumbling and doing their ballets. We had at least 30 minutes of their bellies being 2 inches away from our faces. What an unforgettable night! Hot chocolate as we came out of the water to keep us warm. Lots of snacks on board.

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Equally awe-inspiring and nerve-wracking

Reviewed by: Darra

I only add the nerve wracking part as it was something I did with a little trepidation - the idea of swimming in the ocean, in the dark, in the cold with a little tube to breathe through... However, I like to do something that scares every once in a while as the fear usually is nothing when actually doing the activity and this one was definitely the case in this experience. The guides were excellent and talked everyone through and kept everyone relaxed. You had a half wet suit to help with the cold; the water was lit up (to attract the plankton and mantas); the snorkel you soon forgot once you were floating in pure amazement and smiles as these giants swooped below you and then treated to the bright white display of them underneath as they rolled to eat up the plankton. Complete gentle giants; and not at all scary but just delightful

The phone call for reconfirmation until the day before was a hassle. I don't understand why it's necessary when I've already paid with a credit card. Moreover, since I was planning to participate on the day of arrival, I had to call from Japan considering the time difference.

When I asked about the rain policy, they said that if it rains heavily, we would go under the roof. In the case of a storm, they would decide around 5 PM whether to cancel or not.

After reading other people's experiences, I was surprised to see a long line when I went to line up before 5 PM! Perhaps it was because it was the high season in late July. Registration started at 5:30 PM, and we got to wear shell leis for photos. You can upgrade to flower or nut leis for an additional fee. You can refuse the photo session.

Seating is based on the order of the line. If you pay about 20 dollars more, you can get a table at the very front.

The host talks a lot and sings as well. The English isn't too difficult, and you can still enjoy it even if you don't understand everything. There are hula lessons, traditional games, and stamp tattoos. They show you the whole roasted pig being pulled up, followed by a performance where the king lands from the sea. You're instructed to get your meal from the front tables. Drinks are all-you-can-drink (some are paid), but the bar is far away and inconvenient.

You can see dances from various Polynesian regions. The fire dance was the most exciting. I saw a similar show at Fish Eye in Guam, but the stage here is smaller overall, and there are fewer dancers. The fire dance only has one male performer.

I can tell they are trying to entertain us, but it was very long, and I ended up dozing off a bit.

At the end, you can take photos with the dancers using your phone or other devices. No one seemed to be tipping. The price of the show is much cheaper than in Waikiki, but since I haven't seen it in Waikiki, I can't compare the cost performance.

前日までのリコンファームの電話が面倒です。クレジットカードで支払い済みなのに、どうして必要なのかがわかりません。しかも、到着当日の参加を予定していたので、時差を考えて日本から電話しなくてはなりませんでした。
雨の場合を聞いたところ、かなり降ったら屋根の下に入ると言っていました。嵐の場合は5時頃に中止するかどうか決めるとのことでした。

他の方の体験談を拝見し、5時前に並びに行ったら、既に大行列でビックリ!!7月下旬のハイシーズンだったからでしょうか。5時半から受付が始まり、貝殻のレイをかけてもらって写真撮影。レイはお金を払えばお花や木の実のレイにアップグレードできます。写真撮影は拒否できます。
座席は並んだもの順で前からです。20ドルくらい多く払うと、最も前のテーブルになるようです。

ホストの方がしゃべるしゃべる。歌も歌う。そんなに難しい英語ではないし、分からなくても楽しめます。フラのレッスンや伝統ゲームに興じたり、スタンプタトゥーがあります。
豚の丸焼きを引き上げるのを見せてくれ、直後に王が海から上陸する演出。食事は前方テーブルからに取りにいくよう指示されます。飲み物は飲み放題ですが(一部有料)、バーが遠くて面倒です。
ここまでが長いこと!

ポリネシア各地の踊りを見せてもらえます。ファイアーダンスが一番盛り上がっていました。グアムのフィッシュアイでも同様のショーを見ましたが、こちらは全体的にステージが小さくダンサーの数は少ないです。ファイヤーダンスも男性が一人だけです。

色々と楽しませようとしてくださっているのは伝わるのですが、とても長いので、一部寝てしまいました。

最後はダンサーの方と手持ちの携帯などで写真を撮れます。特にチップを払っている人はいませんでした。ショーのお値段はワイキキよりずっと安いですが、ワイキキでは見ていないので、コスパ比較はできません。
