A luxurious experience 贅沢な体験

Reviewed by: りょん

This is a luxurious tour where you can enjoy whale watching, dolphin watching, sea turtle viewing, and snorkeling all on a cruise charter. We participated as a family of six across three generations, and with two staff members accompanying us, one of whom entered the water to provide guidance and support, my 78-year-old mother, who has paralysis on her right side, was truly grateful to be able to snorkel together. After snorkeling, there was a service of tropical fruits, juice, and snacks, which I believe offers great value for the price. I especially recommend private charters for families with small children or elderly individuals.

クルーザーチャーターで、ホエールウオッチングも、イルカウオッチングも、ウミガメかざしも楽しめ、スノーケルも楽しめる贅沢なツアーです。
三世代家族6人で参加しましたが、スタッフが2人付いてくれ、1人が一緒に海に入って指導やサポートをしてくれるので、78歳で右半身に麻痺が残る母も、一緒にスノーケルできたのが本当にありがたかったです。
スノーケル後にはトロピカルフルーツやジュース、スナックのサービスもあり、お値段以上の価値があると思います。
特に小さいお子さんや高齢の方にはプライベートチャーターはお勧めです。

Tips and suggestions

Private charters offer not just a luxurious experience, but also true peace of mind and freedom. If you want to make the most of your trip, I definitely recommend going private.

Tips and suggestions

プライベートチャーターは、贅沢な体験という以上に、本当に安心安全で自由が利きます。せっかくの旅行を満足なものにしたいのでしたら、是非プライベートをお勧めします。

Our experience could not have been any better! The water was calm, weather was perfect, even with the clouds, which made it more beautiful! The captain and crew, Jack, Ian, and Taiyo were so attentive, gracious, and kind towards us, as we scattered our mother's ashes. It was a day we will always treasure. We highly recommend it and look forward to another sail in the future (just for fun!). Mahalo and blessings from our Ohana to yours!

3-Hour Small-Group Private Whale Watching Cruise - Aloha Kona Tours [Dec-Feb]

Awesome day of whales and dolphins!

Reviewed by: Bryan G

We had a great afternoon on the boat. Took a seven and two year old out with us to see the whales and the captain was very accommodating to both of them. Once we got the area where the whales were we saw a couple different pairs breach multiple times and certainly didn't need binoculars to see them. On our way back to the harbor a few bottle nosed dolphins decided to swim out front of the boat and in the wake for about 10 minutes which was every bit as cool as seeing the whales.

I'd highly recommend Aloha Kona Tours.

Private charter! プライベートチャーター!

Reviewed by: はたごさん

In August 2022, when travel was still strict due to COVID-19, I went to the Big Island and enjoyed a private charter. Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I don't have anything to compare it to, but I felt very safe and secure because it was private.

By the way, according to our guide, Mr. Nawata, we were the first Japanese guests after COVID.

The positives were:
- Since it was private,
1. The schedule was flexible.
2. I could keep a close eye on the children who are not strong swimmers, ensuring their safety.
3. Although they had solid COVID-19 measures in place, it felt even safer since there were no other families around.
- We saw dolphins jumping when we arrived at the bay.
- The children were satisfied seeing beautiful fish.

The trip from Honokohau Harbor to Kealakekua Bay took about an hour one way, and we spent about an hour in the water, but the kids seemed to enjoy it enough, and the breeze on the boat was pleasant.

While it is somewhat more expensive compared to shared boats, we were able to do things that wouldn't be possible without the private charter, and I believe it was a great experience for the children. For families or groups of four or more, especially those with relatively small children, I think it's definitely worth it to go for a private charter.

まだコロナで渡航が厳しい2022年8月にハワイ島にいってプライベートチャーターを楽しみました。初めてのハワイだったので比較対象がないのですが、プライベートだったので、安心安全でとてもよかったと思います。
ちなみに、ガイドの縄田さんによると、コロナ後初の日本人だったそうです。

良かった点としては、
・プライベートだったので、
①スケジュールの融通が利く。
②泳ぎが得意でない子供たちにもしっかり目が届いて安心安全。
③コロナ対策もしっかりしていますが、それ以上に他の家族がいないので安心。
・湾に着いた時にイルカがジャンプしているのが見れたこと。
・子どもたちもきれいな魚が見れて満足していたこと。

出発地のホノウコウ・ハーバーからケアラケクア湾までは片道1時間、往復2時間ほどで海に入れたのは1時間ほどでしたが、子どもたちは十分満喫したようでしたし、ボートの風は気持ち良かったです。

乗り合いのボートと比べると多少値段は張りますが、プライベートではないとできないことができ、子どもたちにもとてもいい体験になったと思います。
それなりの4人以上の家族・グループ、特に比較的小さな子供のいる方にとっては、プライベートチャーターにする価値は十分あると思います。

  • 出発前に。ゴージャスな乗り心地でした。

Aloha Kona Tours Private Boat Charter - Kealakekua Bay Snorkel & Dolphin Watch

Two fantastic private cruises! Thank you Aloha Kona Tours!

Reviewed by: Jim Nicholl

We prefer private charters and snorkeling trips and Aloha Kona Tours did not disappoint. We had such a good time on our Sept 9th cruise we booked a night time Manta Ray cruise the very next day!

On our first cruise we got to see turtles and dolphins and actually got to snorkel with a 25 foot whale shark. It was outstanding! The Captain is excellent and the Crew is very friendly and knowledgeable! The Captain was accommodating to our request for our outing to make the trip very personalized.

On our second night Manta Ray cruise we enjoyed a stunning sunset cruise and tour of the city from the water. Then we snorkeled with the Manta Rays for about 30 minutes. They have all the gear and the Crew was so accommodating. Three of us got in the water and swam with the Rays and our fourth person was a little shy but the Crew made sure she got to see the Rays up close without leaving the boat.

Both trips were truly unforgettable and amazing! The boat is beautiful and comfortable.

Thanks Aloha Kona Tours,

Jim, Jodi, Debye and Larry

BEST Catamaran snorkeling sail!

Reviewed by: J Slayton

We did the No Wiki Kona LUXURY SAIL, dolphin watching, snorkeling. This was the best Catamaran snorkeling sail we've ever been on! (and we've done quite a few)
The captain and crew were knowledgeable, friendly and very attentive. They found us a fantastic snorkeling spot in a reef corner with LOTS of different fish and turtles and no other boats there at the same time. The breakfast and lunch was really great as well. I loved that they put cushioned chairs on the mesh canvas area up font so that you could sit so comfortably in the best spot on the boat! I would definitely do this again and highly recommend it

A beautiful and relaxing cruise

Reviewed by: Debbie

Captain Kurt and Dave gave us a beautiful and relaxing cruise. This was something the whole family can do. We were hoping to see some whales but they were a little too shy this trip. We did have a great snorkel spot. Dave showed the best spots to see sea life. My 2 year old grandson got into the ocean for the first time. Captain Kurt was able to assist some of our family into and out of the ocean safely. Dave brought up a starfish and a sea anemone so my grandson could see and touch them before releasing them back into the ocean.

Reviewed by: aaz

We participated as a mother-daughter duo with no snorkeling experience. My mother is in her 60s. Initially, we joined with the mindset that just seeing dolphins from the boat would be enough, but once we set off, we were encouraged by our guide to go into the water. My mother, who can hardly swim, used a float, but the guide skillfully led us, and she was incredibly moved to see the dolphins from the best spot. I was impressed by the professionalism of the guide. Not only was the encounter rate with dolphins high, but the guide also kept track of the participants' names and how much they were enjoying themselves, even while wearing snorkeling gear. This was amidst many other tours. It was truly amazing. Although it was more active than other tours, the love for dolphins from our guide shone through. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who loves dolphins.

シュノーケリング経験のない母娘で参加しました。母は60代です。
当初は船の上からイルカを観れるだけでもという気持ちで参加しましたが、いざ出発するとガイドの方の勢いに後押しされ海の中へ。ろくに泳げない母は浮を借りながらですが、ガイドさんがしっかりと誘導してくれたので一番の特等席でイルカを観られたと大変感動していました。ガイドさんのプロの仕事はこういうものか。と感銘を受けました。イルカとの遭遇率のみならず、シュノーケリングを着けた上からでもツアー参加者の名前と楽しめているかをしっかりと把握してくれます。他ツアーが沢山入り混じる中でです。本当に凄い。他のツアーよりもアクティブでしたが、イルカを愛するガイドさんの愛が伝わってきました。イルカ好きには何度でもおすすめ出来ます。

When it comes to Hawaii, I've seen so many dolphin tours on TV that I thought I wouldn't be too surprised, but it was completely different. It was incredibly fun and is definitely something you should experience! The guides, Daisuke, Rei, and Koichiro, not only gently pointed out the direction of the dolphins but also ensured that the person who stayed on the boat kept an eye on everyone in the water, allowing us to safely and comfortably swim close to the dolphins.

You can't say you've been to Hawaii if you don't do this!

I saw dolphins right in front of me! 目の前でイルカが見えました!

Reviewed by: あみるった

I thought I would only be able to see the dolphins from a distance, but I was able to see them quite closely! I appreciated that the guide positioned himself in places where the dolphins were likely to come. He was also a friendly person.

The dolphins swam quite fast, and I felt like I was swimming more than just leisurely snorkeling. (laughs) My husband and I were used to snorkeling and good swimmers, so we could keep up, but others who participated seemed quite exhausted. Well, it's to be expected since they are wild.

I was satisfied because meeting the dolphins was the main goal, but considering the price, I felt the time was a bit short, so I would rate it minus one star. We probably spent about 45 minutes in the water, and we wrapped up shortly after 10 AM.

I fully understand that we shouldn't have long interactions with wild dolphins, but if there are areas nearby with coral and fish, I think it would be appropriate to include snorkeling there for the price.

もっと遠くからしか見えないと思っていましたが、なかなかの距離でイルカちゃんが見えました!
ガイドさんがイルカちゃんが来そうなところに先回りしてくれるのが有り難かったです。ガイドさんも気さくな方でした。

イルカちゃんは泳ぐのが結構早く、ゆっくりシュノーケリングというよりは随分水泳させられた気はします。笑
私達夫婦はシュノーケリングに慣れていたのと、泳ぐのも得意だったのでついていけましたが、一緒に参加されていた方は相当疲労困憊していました。。
野生なので、仕方ないですけどね。。

イルカちゃんに会うのが目的だったので満足していますが、お値段を考えると時間が短かったかな〜と思いマイナス1です。たぶん潜ったのは45分くらいかな?午前10時すぎには解散となりました。

野生イルカに長い時間接触すべきではないというのは重々理解していますが、近隣にサンゴやお魚がいるようなところがあれば、そこでのシュノーケリングもできると、お値段に相応かなと思いました。

I was so excited for my first tour swimming with dolphins! However, I’m not a great swimmer and hadn’t swum in about ten years, so I was a bit nervous wondering if I would be okay. But there was absolutely no problem at all.

Lucky for us, a large pod of dolphins came by multiple times, and I lost count of how many dives we did. Interestingly, no other boats were out that day, so it felt like we had Aloha Tours all to ourselves.

When we got really close to the dolphins, they didn’t seem to avoid us at all and showed such curious expressions; they were so cute! I was moved by the sight of dolphins playing with each other, a mother and her baby swimming together, their adorable sounds, and the beautiful bubbles created by their breathing sparkling through the curtain of light. It was a wonderful experience to be in such a beautiful, mysterious world, and the time spent with them became a cherished memory.

Also, Daisuke's bubble ring diving performance was amazing; he looked just like a dolphin! Lei was always cracking jokes, which kept the atmosphere lively and made it so much fun! Thank you so much for allowing us to meet the dolphins!!

初めてイルカと一緒に泳ぐツアーにワクワク!しかし泳ぎは得意じゃないし、もう10年位は泳いでいなかったので(いきなり大丈夫か?)とドキドキでしたが全く問題なかったです。
ラッキーなことに何度もイルカの大群がやって来て何度ダイブしたか分からなくなる程でした。またこの日は何故か他の船が一隻も出港しておらず、アロハツアーズ貸切状態でした。

イルカ達と大接近した時も私達を避ける様子もなく、興味ありげな表情を見せてとても可愛かったです。イルカ同士がじゃれ合っている様子や親子で泳ぐ姿、可愛い鳴き声、そしてイルカの呼吸でできた美しい泡が、光のカーテンの中をキラキラと流れていく光景に感動しました。美しい神秘の世界にお邪魔させて頂き、共に過ごせた一時が幸せでとても良い思い出になりました。
また、ダイスケさんのバブルリング潜りのパフォーマンスも素晴らしく、まるでイルカのようでしたヨ!レイさんもジョークを飛ばして船上では常に盛り上がりとても楽しかったです!イルカちゃん達に会わせて頂き、本当にありがとうございました!!

Swimming alongside dolphins!! An emotional experience. イルカと並泳!!感動体験

Reviewed by: ポニョ

In the morning, a handsome guide took us to a spot where dolphins gather. From the boat, we could see the dolphins jumping, and the excitement was high. Once we entered the water, guided by the handsome guide, we were able to swim right next to the dolphins, which was an incredible experience! The dolphins came back multiple times, so we swam until we were exhausted. Advanced swimmers were diving down to take photos.

There were many boats on the water, but once you’re in the sea, the crowd isn’t too bothersome. There are no shower facilities, but if you go to the boat's washing area, you can rinse off the seawater along with the boat (laughs). There’s a spacious restroom, so you wear your swimsuit on the way there and change back in the restroom on the way back. If you’re prone to motion sickness, it’s best to take some medication in advance, as the boat can be quite rocky, and some people seemed to struggle with it.

午前中にイルカが集まるスポットに、イケメンガイド君が連れて行ってくれます。
ボートの上からもジャンプするイルカたちが見えて、盛り上がりは上々です。
海に入ると、イケメンガイド君の誘導で、こんなに近くにというくらい真横をキープ。水面近くを一緒に泳ぎ、感動!!! しかもイルカは何度もやってくるので、こちらも体力限界まで泳ぎました。上級者の方々は潜って写真を撮っていました。
海上には多くのボートが集まっていましたが、海に入ってしまえば人の多さはさほど気になりません。
シャワー設備はありませんが、ボートの洗い場へ同行すれば、ボートと一緒に海水を落とすことはできます(笑) 広いトイレがあるので、往きは水着着用、帰りはトイレで着替えます。
車酔いする方は、予め酔い止めを飲んだほうがよいです。ボートが結構揺れるので、かなり辛そうな方がいました。

I am very satisfied. The sea turtles and dolphins were perfect! 大満足です。ウミガメもイルカもバッチリ!

Before departing the port, we had a great start by seeing a large sea turtle up close. As we left the port and the guide began explaining the points where we could see dolphins, we encountered a pod of dolphins in less than a minute. After that, we continued to watch them in the water. The guide's explanations were clear and helpful. It was said that we were quite lucky this time. I took motion sickness medication to avoid getting seasick, and I was fully prepared, but there was no time to feel sick. However, I was quite exhausted afterward. Since they mentioned that seeing wild dolphins can depend on luck, it’s not guaranteed that every trip will be as enjoyable as this one, but I was very satisfied.

出港して港を出る前に大きなウミガメを間近で見れて幸先の良いスタート。港を出て、これからイルカのみれるポイントに・・と説明が始まった途端にイルカの群れに遭遇、1分もかかってなかったです。それから、ずっと海の中でみ続けてました。ガイドさんの説明もわかりやすくて良かったです。今回はかなり運が良かったとの事です。船酔いしない様に酔い止めの薬も飲んでバッチリ準備したのに、酔う暇もありませんでした。ただ、終わってからどっと疲れが。野生のイルカなので、運、不運があるとの事でしたので、いつも今回の様に楽しめるとは限らないそうですが、大変満足しました。

Captain Daisuke and instructor Rei were both kind, and thanks to them, I was really able to swim with dolphins up close! I made precious memories. Thank you!

キャプテンのダイスケさん、インストラクターのレイさん、お二人とも親切で、お二人のおかげで本当に近くでイルカと泳ぐ事ができました!
大切な思い出ができました。ありがとうございます!
