All Reviews for Top Big Island Sights & Attractions

Most participants are elderly individuals who cannot engage in snorkeling or other marine sports. At the deepest point, we dive down to about 30 meters to see sunken ships and other sights on the seabed. There is also a Japanese audio guide available, so I don't think there will be any issues. If you request a pickup, you will arrive about an hour before the meeting time, and there will be an additional 45 minutes after the return. I think it would be efficient to enjoy some tea nearby or take a stroll around Kailua-Kona during this time. The hotel we stayed at only had high-end souvenir shops, and since we weren't planning to stop by Honolulu, it was great to be able to buy souvenirs all at once at the ABC Store inside the King Kamehameha Hotel.

参加者は、シュノーケルやその他のマリンスポーツができない御高齢の方がほとんどです。いちばん深いところでは、海底30メートルくらいまで潜ります。海底に沈んだ船なども見ることができます。日本語のイヤホンガイドもあり、困ることはほとんどないと思われます。送迎をお願いした場合、集合時間の一時間前くらいに着き、帰りもさらに45分ほど時間があります。この時間に、近くでお茶を飲んだりカイルア・コナの散策もしてしまうと効率が良いと思います。私たちが泊まったホテルには高級なお土産屋さんしかなく、ホノルルにも立ち寄る予定がなかったので、キングスカメカメハホテルの中のABCストアでまとめてお土産を購入でき、良かったです。

Our tour was AMAZING!! Our tour driver was Nathan or Nate. He was awsome!!
They pick you up at your hotel, which is super convenient! The tour group can fit up to 12 people. So it is nice and small. Our group was super fun and Nate was very informative and talked to us about everything and anything he could! The van is nice and clean and not to mention Eco friendly! It rained alittle, and they had raincoats for everyone just in case.They provide bento lunch for everyone. We actually had 2 vegans in our group and Nate was very caring and took them to a nearby grocery store, so they could pick up a few things to eat since they could not eat much from the bento. Nate not only took us to the places mentioned, but he also drove by a few other places he thought our group would like! He was AMAZING!! This tour was so much fun, the sights were beautiful and very informative!

I definitely saw it. The head, dorsal fin, and tail fin, among other things. However, I saw it jump from a distance after moving back a bit, and I thought I should have waited a little longer...

確かに見えましたがね。あたま、背びれ、尾ビレなど。でも、引き返し少し離れて遠目でジャンプした姿が見え、もう少し待ってればと、、、

After reading experiences about the smartphone tour and knowing it was a boat departing from Keauhou Bay, I thought it would be perfect for me since I easily get seasick and feel cold, so I made a reservation. However, on February 16, the day I made the reservation, I received an email via VELTRA at 9 AM notifying me that the tour was canceled due to bad weather. The message stated that I would receive a full refund, and there was a link below for rescheduling the reservation.

I quickly made a reservation for the following day, February 17, and soon received a confirmation reply through VELTRA. However, the next day, there were zero manta rays. When disembarking, I was told, "The office opens at 8 AM tomorrow, so please call." But the next day, I had a tour with Kona Brewing where I would be drinking, so I couldn't drive afterward, and I had to return home the following day.

In a bind, I sent a question email to the VELTRA representative who had sent me the cancellation email, but I received no reply. I had seen too many experiences on VELTRA and mistakenly thought that if I didn't see manta rays, I could try again anytime, similar to other tours. However, for this tour, the information about being able to retry within seven days if I didn't see manta rays only appeared if I opened the "View Details" section on my smartphone.

(There was also information in the Q&A about what to do if I didn't see manta rays, but I noticed it too late...) The guide might have explained the details about retrying when disembarking, but I couldn't understand because I'm not fluent in English. It's my own mistake, and there's nothing I can do about it, but I'm really disappointed that I didn't see any manta rays. Next time, I plan to choose a tour where I can retry anytime if I don't see manta rays.

スマホの体験談を読み、ケアウホウ湾から出る船とのことで、船酔いしやすく又寒がりの私にはこれだ！と思い、予約しましたが…。
予約をした２月16日は、VELTRA経由で朝９時にメールで天候不順で中止との連絡が。
金額は全額返金との文面、更にその下には日程を変更して予約する場合のリンクが貼られていました。
すぐに翌17日の予約を入れ、程なく予約確定の返事もVELTA経由で頂いたのですが…。
翌日決行するも、マンタはゼロ。
下船時『明日８時から事務所が開くので、電話してください』というような話をされましたが、翌日はコナブリューイングのツアーでお酒を飲むため、その後の運転はNG、そして次の日にはもう帰国せねばならず。
困り果て、中止メールを頂いたVERTRAの担当者さんに質問メールを入れましたが、返事はなく…。
VELTRAさんでツアーの体験談をいろいろ見すぎてしまったことで、マンタが見られなかった場合は、またいつでも挑戦可能という他のツアーの体験談と勘違いしてしまい、このツアーも再挑戦はいつでもOKなのだと思い込んでしまっていました。
このツアーは、スマホだと〔詳細を見る〕というところを開けないとマンタが見れなかった場合７日以内に再挑戦可能という文面が現れません。
（Q&Aにも、マンタに会えなかった場合のことが書いてありましたが、気づくのが遅かった…）
ガイドさんは、下船時に再挑戦に際しての詳しい話もされていたのかもしれませんが、英語が堪能ではないので、理解できず。
自分のミスで、仕方ないことですが、マンタが見られず、本当に残念です。
次回は、マンタに会えなかった場合は再挑戦がいつでもOKなところを選ぼうと思います。

Snorkelling in the night with manta rays was an awesome experience.
Everything was perfectly organized: Captain and "Mermaids" were professional, nice and helpful.
We did it with our two kids (8 and 11) and they loved it.
Big mantas swam a few cm from us: in many occasions it looked like it was better to keep the breath in order to avoid touching them!!
It was super-fun and safe.
I recommend this activity to everybody!!!!
Big thanks to the crew for the amazing memories we will bring with us forever

The weather was great, and I was thrilled to see multiple whales up close! I decided to remember the experience rather than just capture it on camera, so I would love to join again if I get the chance! I didn't understand English, but thanks to the friendly crew staff, I had a wonderful time!

天候もよく何度も、何頭も、ブリーチまで見ることができ感激しました！
カメラより目に焼き付けることにしたので、また出会いたくなったら、参加したいと思います！
英語はわからなかったけど、気さくなクルースタッフのおかげで十分に楽しめました！

I was skeptical about whether I could really see whales up close, but I was able to see them several times. The drinks and snacks on board were plentiful, but unfortunately, I couldn't enjoy them much because the boat was rocking quite a bit.

本当に近くでクジラが見れるのか、疑心暗鬼でしたが何度も近くでクジラを見る事が出来た。船内の飲み物やスナック類も充実していたが、船がかなり揺れていた為実際にはあまり飲むことが出来ずに残念だった。

I've always wanted to learn how to surf and Jason was totally awesome and fun to work with. Although there were high surf warnings and strong current warnings going on at the time, I nailed a perfect 10, according to him, on only my 5th wave. I later got 3 in a row, including standing up, surfing the wave, and laying back down again without falling in the blue water below. I quickly caught on to many of the trends, such as interpreting the waves and knowing when to go for it. The first thing to do with learning most any skill is to find patterns.

Jason called me a natural at it, and I believe it, given how quickly I learned and how enjoyable my experience was. It did take me a bit of time to get used to getting up to the standing position from laying down, but the classroom-like aspect of the first segment really helped with that.

I would say the hardest part about this whole thing was finding a parking space for where you'd be doing the actual surfing itself. If you're lucky, you could find parking along the street close by, but chances are, you'll need the parking lot that's close to around 700 feet away, but what's a little walking when you've got a lot of paddling to do? It's a nice warm up, at least, to prepare yourself.

I chose the one on one option mainly because I felt it was going to be a skill I wanted to use in other locations. Little did I know, it actually ensured I could do this as everyone but me canceled due to the surf conditions.

Even though my English is not very good, they spoke slowly, and it became a very good memory. However, we were supposed to meet at 8:30, but it took almost an hour to get to the horseback riding, so there seems to be room for improvement there.

苦手な英語もゆっくり話してくれて、とても良い思い出になりました。
ただ、8時30分集合だったのですが、何だかんだで乗馬までに小1時間かかってしまったことは改善の余地がありそうです。

Fortunately, the weather was favorable, and I was able to achieve my goal of visiting the Big Island of Hawaii. Additionally, I was pleased to have a Japanese pilot as I had hoped, who provided explanations at key points in Japanese. The magma at the Kilauea volcano's crater can only be seen by helicopter!

幸い天候にも恵まれてハワイ島へ行った目的が叶いました。
又、希望どうり日本人パイロットでしたので要所要所日本で説明いただき
良かったです。キラウエア火山噴火口のマグマはヘリでなければ見れません！

I parked my car as collateral, and the reception was inside the house. It seemed to be a popular tour, as there was another boat besides ours. As mentioned in other comments, everything is in English, so it might be more enjoyable if you can speak a little, but even if you don't understand at all, you'll manage. (The captain shares some history with us.) Suddenly, we sped off into the ocean. Since it was my first time, I was desperately hanging on to avoid being thrown off. If you get seasick, medication is a must. The view of the Big Island from the ocean is magnificent. It was the best. It was my first experience with snorkeling. They provided life jackets, which made me feel safe. We encountered sea turtles and rays. I also saw many beautiful fish. We encountered dolphins three times. They played with us, doing twist jumps right in front of us! It was truly fun. The captain gave us snacks on the boat, and they were delicious! Hawaiian chips with green chili flavor. After that, I went around supermarkets looking for them, but unfortunately, they weren't available.

Thanks to this, I had a very enjoyable time. I would love to visit again.

車を抵当に停めて受付けはハウス内でした。
人気のツアーのようで、私達の他にもう一隻。
他のコメントにもあるように、全て英語なので少しは話せた方が楽しめるかもしれませんが、全くわからなくても何とかなります。
（キャプテンが歴史を話してくれたりします）
いきなり猛スピードで沖へ爆走。
初参加だったので、必死に振り落とされないようにしがみ付いてました。
船酔いする方はお薬必須です。
沖から見るハワイ島は壮大。最高です。
シュノーケルも初体験。
しっかり救命胴衣を貸してくれて、安心。
海がめ、エイにも遭遇。
沢山の綺麗なお魚たちにも会えました。
イルカは3回も遭遇。遊んでくれたのか、私達の目の前でツイストジャンプ！
本当に楽しかったです。
船上でキャプテンがスナックをくれたのですが、それが美味しかった！
ハワイアンチップの青唐辛子味。
その後それを求めてスーパー巡りしましたが、残念ながら売ってなかった。。

お陰さまでとても楽しい時間でした。
また訪れたいとおもいます。

The guide explained at the meeting point, "We cannot go to the summit due to snow. You can cancel if you wish," but I decided to join as it was also a tour around the island. While observing several whale spouts at a viewing point, we received word that we could go to the summit, so our plans changed suddenly. I never expected to see and step on snow in Hawaii at the summit, where remnants of yesterday's snowfall remained! It was such a strange experience! We watched the sunset from the snowy summit and then descended, stopping for stargazing along the way. Unfortunately, there were clouds, but we managed to find some clear skies. From sea level to the summit at 4,205 meters, where the oxygen level is half that of the plains, the temperature dropped from 30 degrees to -2 degrees. It was a tour that offered a rare experience! The guide's dedicated support and enjoyable commentary made the tour even more fun.

ガイドさんから集合時に「積雪で山頂には行けません。キャンセル可能です」の説明がありましたが、島内ツアーを兼ねて参加しました。クジラが見れるポイントで数匹の潮吹きを観察していたら「山頂に行ける」との連絡があり急遽予定変更。昨日の雪が残る山頂でまさかハワイで雪を見て踏みしめるとは！何か不思議な経験です！雪の残る山頂からサンセットを見て下山し途中星空観測、生憎の雲でしたが晴れ間を見つけて出来ました。海抜0mから酸素が平地の半分になる4,205mの山頂、気温は30度からー2度、めったに体験できないツアーでした！ガイドさんの献身的なサポートと楽しい案内がツアーをより楽しくしてくれました。

Because it is a calm period for volcanic activity, I believe you can only see the red, molten magma on a helicopter tour. I was also impressed by the vast black plateau. The pilot made sure that everyone in the seats could see the magma and waterfalls by circling around. The man in the back seat was so focused on taking pictures that he seemed to feel a bit unwell later on due to the circling, but he said he had a great time. Thank you very much.

火山活動が穏やかな時期だからこそ、ヘリツアーでなければマグマの赤いドロドロしたものは見れないと思います。
広大な黒い台地にも感動しました。
すべての席の方がマグマや滝を見れるように、パイロットの方が旋回してくれました。後部座席の男性は写真撮影に夢中で、後半、旋回のせいでちょっと気分が悪くなったようでしたが、楽しかったとのことです。
ありがとうございました。

It's been years since I've felt this moved. Our guide, M, carefully taught us about local gourmet food, traffic rules, and manners. The next day, we had a long drive to Hilo, so it was very helpful. M was fun to talk to and very considerate, making the bus ride relaxing. We had lunch at the Onizuka Center, and although I had no expectations, it was unexpectedly delicious (laughs). I had eaten a hearty lunch beforehand, so I wasn't hungry, which was a bit disappointing.

Then, it was time for the hike. I was so sleepy—just incredibly tired. M tried to keep us awake with conversation, but I was still drowsy. Somehow, we made it to the summit. "Is this Earth? Is this Hawaii?" I couldn't find the words. M became a guide because she participated in this tour. She said, "My life changed." While watching the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds with my wife, I cried. Somehow, the worries I had seemed small and insignificant when I saw that sunset. (Though once I return to Japan, I'll probably be back to worrying about little things again.)

After that, we moved down to stargaze. At first, there weren't many stars, and I thought, "Well, this is it." But gradually, more stars appeared, and before I knew it, I was looking at a sky sprinkled with stars, and I cried again. The sunset was amazing, but the starry sky was also heart-stirring. M carefully explained the constellations using a laser pointer. Along the way, the warm tea and biscuits were delicious too. Finally, after we got off the bus, M dashed back to deliver my forgotten sunglasses. I was moved that she took the time to check for lost items. I can't express how much I was touched. The other participants were also very well-mannered, making it a very comfortable experience. Next time, I want to go to Mauna Kea with Masashi.

こんなに、感動したのは何年ぶりだろう。ｶﾞｲﾄﾞの方（Mちゃん）は、地元のｸﾞﾙﾒや交通ﾙｰﾙ、ﾏﾅｰ等を丁寧に教えてくれた。翌日、ﾋﾛまでﾛﾝｸﾞﾄﾞﾗｲﾌﾞだったので参考になった。話が楽しく、思いやりのある方でﾊﾞｽの中もﾘﾗｯｸできた。ｵﾆｽﾞｶｾﾝﾀｰでお弁当を食べたが、全く期待していなかったが、予想外（笑い）に美味しかった。ﾗﾝﾁをしっかり食べてきて、おなかがすいてなかったので残念でした。
そして、いざ、登山。『眠い』とにかく眠い。Mちゃんがいろいろ眠気さましに、お話しするが眠い。
なんとか、山頂につきました。『ここ、地球？』『ここﾊﾜｲ？』言葉にならないです。Mちゃんがｶﾞｲﾄﾞさんに転職したのは、このﾂｱｰに参加したから。『人生かわりました』とのこと。雲海に沈みゆく夕陽を家内と見ながら、泣いてました。なんか、悩んでることなんか、このサンセットおみると、小さく、どうでもよいことののうに思えてきました。（日本に帰りしばらくするとまた、小さいことに悩む日々ですが）そのあと、下に移動して星空観賞。最初は、あまり星がなく、『まあ、こんなもんか』と思っていたら、徐々に星がでてきて、気が付けば、お星さまを振りまいた空を見、また涙。ｻﾝｾｯﾄも最高だったけど、星空も心揺さぶる。ﾚｰｻﾞｰﾎﾟｲﾝﾀｰを使いながら、丁寧に星座の説明をしてくれる。途中で暖かい紅茶とﾋﾞｽｹｯﾄも美味しかった。最後に、ﾊﾞｽを降た後、Mちゃんが猛ダッシュ、で『ｻﾝｸﾞﾗｽ！』と忘れ物と届けてくれた。ちゃんと忘れ物の確認してることに、ここでも感動。どれだけ、感動したんだろう。他の参加者の方も、ﾏﾅｰが良く、とても快適でした。今度は、ﾏｻｼでﾏｳﾅｹｱに行きたいですね。

This was a wonderful end very enlightening and historical luau.
This show was beautiful and colorful!
We appreciate the wonderful choices of foods and the special choice for my husband's vegetarian meal.
The locale was extra good next to the temple,ocean and the historical exhibits in the hotel.

I had an amazing time!! The big manta rays swam around, and I could watch them for a long time!! It would have been even better if I could have seen more, but I'm satisfied!! I hope that next time I come, I can see even more manta rays, so I give it 4 stars out of 5 ❤︎*.

すごい楽しかったです!!
おっきいマンタがグルグル泳いでくれて、ずーーっと見てられました!!
もっと沢山見れたらもっと良かったけど、満足です!!
また次来る時にはもっと沢山のマンタが見れるといいなという気持ちで星－1で❤︎*。

I was amazed to see so many dolphins up close, more than I had expected. It was truly a fun time! The guide was also fantastic!

思っていたよりたくさんのイルカをすぐ近くで見れて感動しました。本当に楽しい時間でした！ガイドさんも最高でした！

The Body Glove Afternoon Whale Watch Cruise was an enjoyable experience. The guide was very knowledgable, and the captain was great.
And they give you free reef friendly sunscreen!

however, you don't really feel that you're 'in nature' if that's what you're looking for - it's a very large very fancy cruise ship - just be aware if you're looking for a more intimate experience!

I was able to try multiple times to swim with the dolphins up close. Thanks to that, I was able to swim among a pod of dolphins. As a bonus, I even got to see a whale, which made me very satisfied. Daisuke truly conveyed his love for dolphins, and it felt like he understood their feelings as well. I'm a repeat visitor to the Big Island, and I will definitely be a repeat customer for this tour too!

本当に近くで一緒にイルカと泳げるまでなんどもトライして頂きました。お陰でイルカの群れの中で一緒に泳ぐことができました。
おまけで、クジラまで見させて頂いて大満足でした。
ダイスケさん、心からイルカを愛している方が伝わり、イルカの気持ちまで分かってるようでした。
ハワイ島リピーターですが、このツアーもリピーターになります！

Unfortunately, the summit was closed due to snow, so we had to give up on the sunset. However, we descended a bit and found a spot without clouds, where we were able to see the most amazing starry sky. This was all thanks to our fantastic guide. He helped us find the location and provided detailed explanations about the Orion constellation, the Andromeda Nebula, and various other constellations using a telescope. I owe a big thanks to JIN OTAKA from your group’s nature school and his great partner. Thank you!

I accidentally forgot to give a tip, so I called your company and arranged to leave it at the hotel front desk for Jin to pick up later, which relieved me. It would have been too regrettable not to do so after such a fun guiding experience. I highly recommend everyone to take advantage of this service!

残念だったのは山頂が雪でクローズでしたので夕日は断念。
すこし下山して雲がない場所を探していただき最高な星空を観ることができました。これには最高のガイドさんおかげでした。場所を探し望遠鏡でオリオン星座、アンドロメダ星雲いろいろな星座の説明など詳しく解説をしてもらいました。貴社グループのマサシのネイチャースクールのJIN　OTAKAさんと友達の名コンビのおかげでした。ありがとう！
うっかりしてチップを渡し忘れてしまったので御社に電話をしてホテルの
フロントに預けて仁さんにあとで取りに来てもらうようにしてホッとしました。そうしなくては申し訳ないぐらい楽しいガイドぶりでした。
皆さんも是非利用されるといいですよー。

The owners were very informative, having both grown up in Waipio. The tour takes you along their property and a small portion of private property outside of public access areas. It was great to learn so much info about Waipio! The owners have the answers to all your questions and have great stories to share about their time there. In terms of scenery, the only thing I wish was that the horseback tour took you to see more than just their taro farm below and the small patch we traveled by horseback. Overall the interactions with the owners make this a great choice for your horseback tour! They are as authentic as you can get to the Waipio, Hawaiian culture!

Because it was a morning cruise, they made good on sighting whales. There were multiple sightings. The amount of time on the boat was good, because after the sightings, I could actually relax and just enjoy the rest of the boat ride. The refreshments were tremendous. The crew was very generous and informative. I know the crew couldn't get as close as I would have liked, because of regulations, but I sure would have liked to have closer pictures and more majestic surfacings. But, overall we were happy with the cruise.

I lined up a little earlier than the scheduled time and was the third group. As time passed, more and more people lined up. Since entry is based on the order of arrival, I think it's best to line up early if you want a better seat.

After checking in, you have to wait before entering the venue. Check-in is at 5 PM, and the doors open at 5:30 PM, so you will wait for about 30 minutes.

First, you receive a welcome drink and are shown to your seat. Once seated, you are free to enjoy, but the food is only for children. There is a place where you can enjoy temporary tattoos and small items, and while you're having fun there, the food for adults will become available.

Even before the main show starts, there are songs and dances on stage, and music is always playing, so you can have a pleasant time.

As the sun sets and it gets somewhat dark, the main show begins. There are classic fire shows and hula dances. Since my seat was a bit far, I think it's better to choose a higher seat if you're looking for a more intense experience.

Additionally, from 8 AM on the day of the event, you can watch the preparation of a whole roasted pig. This is also quite impressive, so I recommend seeing that as well.

時間よりちょっと早めに並んだら、3組目でした。時間を過ぎるとどんどん並んで…。並んだ順に案内なので、少しでもよい席がよかったら、早めに並ぶといいと思います。
受付のあと、会場に入るまで待たされます。17時に受付、17時30分開場なので、30分ほど待ちます。
まずウエルカムドリンクをもらい、席に案内されます。席に着いたらあとは自由ですが、食べ物は子ども用しかありません。洗うと落ちるタトゥーや小物売り場があるので、そこで楽しんでたら大人用の食べ物がオープンになります。

メインのショーが始まるまでも、舞台では歌やダンスがあったり、常に音楽が流れてるので、心地よい時間を過ごすことができます。

日が落ちて、ある程度暗くなってくると、いよいよメインのショーです。定番のファイヤーショーやフラダンスです。少し席が遠かったので、迫力を求めるならば高い席にした方がよいと思います。

また、当日朝8時から、豚の丸焼きの準備を見ることができます。これもなかなか見ごたえがあるので、合わせて見ることを推薦します。

Personally, this was my third time at the summit of Mauna Kea, after visiting 20 years ago and 8 years ago. The experience was similar, including hotel pickup and a break at the Onizuka Visitor Center. However, this time, the guide, Big JIN, was entertaining, making the sunset and stargazing enjoyable. Although it was said to feel like -20 degrees, the rental cold-weather gear provided was perfect. Additionally, there was a unique service for this tour where they later shared photos taken against the backdrop of the sunset at the summit and stunning starry sky photos that are difficult for travelers to capture online. If you're in Hawaii, the Mauna Kea summit sunset and stargazing is an absolute must. Highly recommended!

個人的には20年前、8年前、そして今回の3度目のマウナケア山頂でした。
ホテルピックアップから途中のオニズカ・ビジターセンターの休憩など内容は一緒でした。ただ今回は日本人（ビッグJINさん）のガイドが面白くて楽しくサンセット・星空観察が出来ました。体感温度ー20度と言われましたがレンタルしてくれる防寒着も完ぺきでした。また多分このツアー独自のサービスでしょうが山頂の夕日バックの写真や旅行者では撮りにくい満天の星空写真を後日ネットで配信するなどのサービスがついていました。
ハワイ島なら絶対外せないマウナケア山頂サンセット＆星空観測。おススメです。

I had a rare experience being able to see manta rays up close! They come quite close to you, which can be a little scary. I usually don't get seasick, but I started to feel queasy after floating in the water and looking down at the manta rays for a long time, so I went back up to the boat partway through. I think it's a good idea for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some medication. It gets chilly at night, so I also recommend preparing for the cold.

マンタを間近で見ることができて、貴重な体験ができました！マンタの方からかなり近づいて来るので、ちょっと怖いくらいです。
普段あまり酔ったりはしませんが、マンタを見るためにずっと下を向いて海に浮いて波に揺られていたことで、酔ってきたので途中でしたが船上に上がりました(･･;)
酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだ方がいいと思います。夜は冷えるので、防寒対策もおススメします

We tried surfing for the first time as a couple with a combined age of 102 years, and we were able to ride the waves right away. The instructor was very kind and taught us patiently, which made it so much fun! ❣️
It was a bit disappointing that there were no photos available online afterward. Next time, I would like to check the photos first. I definitely want to do this again! ❣️

初めてサーフィンを夫婦の年齢合計102歳でやって、すぐ乗れました。付きっ切りで、優しく丁寧に教えてくれて、とっても楽しかったです❣️
後からネットで見れる写真がなかったのが残念でした。今度は最初に写真の確認したいです。
そして次回もお願いしたいです❣️

We loved our adventure!! Pat was a great pilot and tour guide! We had big smiles on our faces for the rest of the day! A can’t miss in Hilo! The staff and crew were so nice and helpful with my mom who needed extra help getting to and from the helicopter. We highly recommend this excursion

The ride in van to the valley, then back to the top were outstanding as well as horseback ride. Guide was a great driver on the narrow treacherous roads. Horseback ride wonderful, guides informative, horses gentle. Great instructions given on how to "drive" a horse. I've never felt so comfortable on a horse before. Mine was Holoholo, a handsome palamino. He had personality and would nip ar other horses. I could identify with him. I have personality as well. Scenery beautifal. I loved the ride so much that I went back for a second ride a week later.Also saw many wild horses too.
.I would recommend this activity to anyone and everyone.

Due to the wind speed, I couldn't reach the summit, but I really enjoyed the sunset and the clear view of the stars that the guide showed us. I participated alone, but the guide was very considerate, and the other participants were also very kind, which made it enjoyable until the end! Thank you very much! I now have the goal of reaching the summit next time.

風速の関係で山頂に登ることはできませんでしたが、サンセットや、星がしっかり見える位置を案内してくれたのでとても楽しめました^ ^そして、1人で参加しましたが、ガイドさんも気にかけてくれたり、参加されてるお客様もとても優しく、最後まで楽しめました！
ありがとうございました^ ^
次は山頂に行くという目標までもできました。

Had a great time with our guide Kevin, he was helpful with instructions on how to paddle so you don't over work yourself, and how to control your kayak, also how to get in and out of the kayak safely. Has nice place for snorkeling with nice variety of wildlife .
