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

nice, but...

Reviewed by: dusty

their lights were dim compared to other companies, and they went in much earlier than the other boats.

Reply from activity provider

Thank you for reviewing your tour with us. The lights we use are quite powerful, we do place a special blue filter over them to attract more of the microscopic plankton which the mantas' appear to prefer over the larger zooplankton, that may be why they appeared to be dim by comparison.

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾 シュノーリングツアー <軽食付き/英語ガイド>

Even as a beginner in snorkeling, I had a great time. シュノーケル初心者でも楽しめました

Reviewed by: とくめい

I participated in this tour to enjoy the sea on the rocky shores of Hawaii Island. There are two main highlights of this tour:

1. Snorkeling
I wasn't very good at swimming, but I was grateful that they provided life jackets. The first snorkeling spot was about 3 meters deep, so I couldn't touch the bottom, and at the other location, I couldn't stand on the coral reef either, so I was swimming the whole time. There weren't a huge number of fish, but I was happy to see a turtle.

2. The speed of the boat
It was astonishing. Of course, I took off my hat and held onto the railing the entire time. It was thrilling and a lot of fun. I think it was even more impactful than snorkeling.

The locals also said that Sea Quest is great, and the morning plan, which has less intense waves, wraps up before noon, so I was able to make the most of my day. However, the guide only spoke English, so all the instructions were in English as well. I also recommend applying sunscreen thoroughly, especially on your back.

岩場の多いハワイ島で海を楽しむため参加しました。このツアーの楽しみは2点です。

1.シュノーケル
泳ぐのが苦手でしたが、ライフジャケットを用意しておいてくれたので助かりました。一つ目のシュノーケルポイントは水深3メートルぐらいで足はつきませんし、もう一つの場所でもサンゴ礁の上には立つことはできないので泳ぎぱなしです。
魚は大量というわけではありませんでしたが、カメに会うことができたのでよかったです。

2.ボートの速さ
驚愕でした。帽子などはもちろん外し、ずっと手すりにつかまっていました。スリルがあって楽しかったです。シュノーケル以上にインパクトがあったように思います。

現地の人もSea Questはいいよと言っていましたし、波の激しくない朝のプランはお昼前には解散なので一日充実できました。ただし、ガイドさんは本当に英語のみだったので注意事項などももちろん英語です。あと日焼け止めをとくに背中に入念に塗ることをおすすめします。

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

A stunning experience for all

Reviewed by: Amber Bialy

My husband and I were both nervous, I get seasick and he has a fear of deeper water and has never snorkeled. Captain Morgan was amazing and the crew was super reassuring. They gave me ginger candy when I got on. I only felt a little queasy, it wasn't as bad as I thought. Short ride and they got us in the water and we had a full display of barrel rolls by 2 mantas! My husband had an amazing time and he enjoyed it more than he thought he would. He would do it again! You stay in the water for a reasonable amount of time, I got out a tad early but we went back shortly after. Tea, soda and fresh pineapple was offered. A MUST do and I couldn't ask for a better crew. Bring your own goggles and snorkel if you have them, some masks leaked a little. Worth it even if you get seasick (lots of ginger and dramamine!)
Pick a day with no wind as Well! We had a great experience.

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

Manta ray with NO CRUISE

Reviewed by: Steve

Crew was very nice and captain had a great story, but we were ones that had little luck with manta's. We did see one or two, but it took a full hour in water, where some of my party began to get sick and missed it. The most disappointing part was absolutely no cruise. Do not expect a cruise. We coasted for 5 min and went out where I could snorkel on my own. I really thought we would sail for a bit and get snacks instead of one piece of pineapple. Understand you are hanging onto a ladder the whole time. I get it for safety reasons, but not what I expected. There is no real snorkeling where your swimming around. No boat lights other then ladder. I felt we were using other boats lights, where we were the last ones to ever see anything, unless we got lucky. Our ladder had lights. I thought this was also a 3 to 4 hour tour. It took 5 or 10 min. To get where we were going, then hour in water, then go home. No drinks on this, and hit and miss with hot chocolate. I highly recommended actually sailing first and open the sails like they said would happen and choosing this boat in the first place. My party was disappointed. My kids were troopers and stayed out with me and saw the one manta, before turning back where the rest of the people holding onto the ladder didn't see it. At least give us a cruise first with this cool boat.

Thank you for taking the time to review your manta tour. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the staff and also sorry to hear you did not fully enjoy the trip. We, unfortunately, do not always get the opportunity to sail prior to the manta tour. As stated on the website, factors such as mooring availability water conditions and weather play a great part in what happens on each individual tour. If I could have it my way, every night we would have just enough wind cruise out to sea while watching a glorious sunset (No rain). Return back to the manta site to find our mooring available, at this point the wind would calm and the sea would be flat and upon entering the water all of Kona's manta rays would gather under our raft for the entire hour. Everyone would be happy, but alas this does not happen as often as I wish it would.

Reviewed by: AKKIE.O

I actually wanted to go horseback riding in Waipi'o Valley, but I couldn't make a reservation, so I gave up. I was able to make a reservation for horseback riding at the ranch, so I participated here instead. They didn't speak any Japanese at all, but they explained things in simple English with smiles, so I hardly had any trouble. They provide Western boots, socks, parkas, jackets, and bags, so you can go hands-free without any issues. I left my valuables with them, but I took a drink, camera, and phone in my bag. Sneakers would be fine, but I think it's better to borrow boots. I had my own socks, so I wore those. Did we ride for about 1.5 hours? We galloped and trotted around the vast ranch grounds. Since my husband was almost a beginner, I thought we would just walk, but he looked at the situation and asked if we wanted to try running, and we did a few times. The horses do gauge people to some extent, but they are calm and listen well, so I wasn't particularly worried. They smiled and said, "Come back again next year!" Thank you very much! I want to come again!

ハワイ島 ジップライン体験8本 ワールド・ボタニカル・ガーデンの中を滑走 <英語インストラクター>

First zip line 初ジップライン

Reviewed by: ディー

The staff were all cheerful and kind. It felt great to glide over the forest under the blue sky. However, the time slot I reserved was likely at maximum capacity, and we had to wait quite a bit each time we went to the new zip line. They said it would take about one to one and a half hours, but it ended up taking nearly two hours.

But since we could enjoy the scenery, I think it was still good? There was also an elderly American grandmother who was trying it for the first time, making it a zip line experience that the whole family could enjoy.

スタッフは皆さん明るく親切でした。青い空の下、森の上を滑走する感じが気持ちよかったです。ただ、予約した回が、おそらく、マックスの参加人数で、新しいジップラインに行くたびにかなり待たされました。1時間から1時間半、と言われていましたが、2時間近くかかりました。
でも、風景も楽しめたから、良かったかな?かなり年配のアメリカ人のおばあちゃまも初挑戦されていて、家族で楽しめるジップラインでした。

In the early morning, there was heavy rain, and I thought we might be riding in the rain, but fortunately, the weather cleared up. We drove down to the valley, but the road was steep and narrow. Arriving there was a bit nerve-wracking, but we made it. We also got to see the waterfall that I wanted to see along the way. The horseback riding tour began, and our two cute dogs joined us as well. We crossed a river along the way, which was very refreshing. However, the horse had to pee, poop, and eat grass at various points. At the end, the guide took some photos for us.

朝方に大雨が降り、雨の中での乗馬かなと思いましたが、運良く天気が回復。車で谷まで降りていきますが急坂で細い道。ちょっとビビりながらも到着。途中見たかった滝も見えました。馬に乗りツアー開始。飼っているかわいい犬2匹もいっしょについて来ました。途中川を渡ったりとても気分爽快です。でも馬は途中でおしっこ、うんこ、草を食べるなどいろいろあります。最後にガイドさんが写真を撮ってくれます。

A show worth watching. 見応えのあるショー

Reviewed by: ころなり

I was able to see the dances of each island in the Pacific, learning about their similarities and differences. There were also efforts made to ensure participants enjoyed themselves, such as celebrating birthdays and cheering together.
The meals offered a considerable variety, and even taking small portions resulted in quite a large amount. As mentioned in previous experiences, the order in which you go to get food is determined by your seating, so it’s not an all-you-can-eat situation from the start time. It might have been tough waiting and getting hungry (laughs).
If you don’t have the opportunity to see traditional shows (or have never eaten traditional cuisine) during your stay, I think this is a great option.

太平洋の島々のそれぞれの踊りを見せてくれて、似たところ違うところを知ることが出来ました。参加者の誕生日を祝ったり、一緒に掛け声をかけたりなど参加者が楽しむための工夫もされています。
食事は結構な種類があり、少しずつ取ってもかなり大量になります。前の体験談にもあるように席によって食事をとりにいく順番が決まっていますので、スタート時刻から食べ放題と言う訳ではありません。待っている間におなかへってツラかったかな(笑)。
滞在中に伝統的なショーを見る機会がない(または伝統料理を食べたことがない)なら、いいとおもいます。

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

First canter experience. 初めての駈歩体験

Reviewed by: まるみ

We signed up for the 2.5-hour course for four family members. We gathered at 8:30 and arrived at the meeting point on time, but since the group for the 1.5-hour course, which was scheduled for 9:30, arrived before 9:00, we ended up starting with them and had to wait for nearly an hour after we were ready... During that time, there was no explanation given.

After being taught how to handle the horses, we set off. We all climbed up the highlands together. The weather was nice, and the views were great. We walked briskly several times, and about an hour passed.

As mentioned in other people's posts, we were wondering if we would also be on the 1.5-hour course, but along the way, we were told, "They go Long Course," and we took a different route. The other group descended and went back.

We continued to climb higher into the highlands and experienced a canter for the first time. It was for a short time, but it was an incredible speed and vibration, and I clung on desperately to avoid falling off the horse, making it a valuable experience.

After that, we arrived at a scenic viewpoint. We took photos with Maui Island in the background, with mountains and the sea, before descending. The actual riding time was about 2 hours and 15 minutes.

I think it would be less confusing if the 1.5-hour course was labeled as the "Standard Course" and the 2.5-hour course as the "Long Course." The horseback riding itself was five stars due to the perfect weather and location, but the local staff's response was somewhat lacking, so I give it four stars.

2.5時間コースに家族4人で申し込みました。
8時半集合で時間通りに集合場所に行きましたが、9時半集合の1.5時間コースのグループが9時前に到着したために、結局その人達と一緒にスタートすることになり、準備が出来てから1時間近く待たされることに…
その間なんの説明もありませんでした。
馬の扱い方を教えてもらって出発。皆で高原をどんどん登って行きます。
天気も良く、見晴らしも良好。途中何度か速歩をしながら1時間ほどがすぎました。
他の人の投稿にもあるように、自分たちも1.5時間コースになるのかなぁと思っていましたが、途中で「They go Long Course」と言われ自分たちは別のルートへ。他のグループは下山し帰っていきました。
更に高原を登って行き、途中で初めての駈歩を体験。少しの時間でしたが、すごい速さと振動に馬から落ちないよう必死にしがみつきましたが貴重な体験となりました。
その後絶景ポイントに到着。マウイ島が見晴らせる場所で山と海をバックに写真撮影をし下山となりました。
正味の乗馬時間は2時間15分程。
1.5時間コースは「標準コース」2.5時間コースは「ロングコース」とした方が誤解がないのではと思います。
乗馬自体は最高の天気、ロケーションで星5つですが、現地の人の対応がいまいちなので星4つです。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック&シュノーケルツアー 海中洞窟探検プランあり <早朝・午前/日本語ガイド>by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

A kayaking adventure in the Pacific Ocean and a luxurious experience of having Keauhou Bay all to yourself!! 太平洋に繰り出すカヤックアドベンチャーとケアウホウ湾独り占めの贅沢体験!!

Reviewed by: 浜のピアノおやじ

"Riding out into the bay" means we're already in the Pacific Ocean! While I was wondering if it was really okay, under the excellent guidance of our guide, we smoothly paddled the kayak and successfully tackled the challenge of exploring the caves. After the kayak tour, we returned to Keauhou Bay for snorkeling. I lost track of time as I became completely absorbed in snorkeling with the many fish swimming among the corals. If you look closely, there are people along the shore of Keauhou Bay, but in the middle of the bay, it was just the two of us, which made for an incredibly luxurious activity that left us very satisfied.

「湾の外に乗り出す」って、もうそこは太平洋!本当に大丈夫かななんて思いながらも、ガイドさんの見事な指導のもと、悠然とカヤックを進め、洞窟へのチャレンジも見事にこなしました。カヤックツアーの後はケアウホウ湾に戻ってシュノーケリング。サンゴの間に泳いでいるたくさんの魚と一緒に時間のたつのも忘れてシュノーケルに夢中になっていました。よく見ると、ケアウホウ湾の岸辺には人がいますが、ワンの真ん中はうちの夫婦二人の独占で、なんとも贅沢なアクティビティに大満足でした。

We also didn't see any dolphins... well, it can't be helped; it's due to the weather.

ただ、天候がイマイチで、波が荒く海中洞窟ツアーだったのに、入れなかったのが残念でした。
イルカも見えなかったし・・まあ、仕方ないですね、天候のせいですから。

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

The reservation time was changed without permission... 予約時間を勝手に変更...

Reviewed by: ろんろん

I reserved the 9 AM session, and the confirmation email I received the day before also stated 9 AM. I left early to make sure I would arrive on time, but when I got there on the day, I found out that it had been changed to the 12:30 PM session without my knowledge. I was told that the 9 AM session was fully booked, so I had no choice but to kill time. The staff members were all very pleasant and apologized, but it seems best to directly confirm again before the day.

9時スタートの回を予約して、前日確認メールにも9時スタートとあったので
間に合うように早めに出たのに、当日行ったら12時半からの回に勝手に変更されていました。
9時からの回は一杯と断られ、仕方なく時間を潰すことになりました。
スタッフの方々は感じのよい方ばかりで、謝ってくれましたが
前日までに直接再確認したほうが良さそうです。
