Waipio Valley Horseback Ride was such a great and fun experience for my entire family! The scenery was beautiful and riding the horses was very exciting too. Even if it was our first time riding horseback, the guides were very calm and helpful throughout the ride. We absolutely loved it!!

The guide provided a very thorough lecture, allowing even beginners to participate with confidence. The highlight, the underwater cave, was truly overwhelming! It was an experience that can only be enjoyed here. Along the way, we encountered dolphins, which was a delightful surprise, making it the best memory. The pineapple snack was delicious too!

★Breathtaking! An Inspiring Tour★ ★絶景！感動のツアー★

Reviewed by: こぼちゃん

I went to the Big Island for my honeymoon! After participating, I learned that if you post about it, you can get one person free, so I joined the local plan.

★ Access
I stayed at the Sheraton Kona Resort, and it cost $40 (one way) by taxi from the hotel to the location. Even considering the tip, it was a good deal. For the return trip, I was told that there are no taxis waiting, so I asked the hotel staff to help me and made a round-trip reservation.

*Return time should be confirmed
The return time was about an hour earlier than what was listed on the voucher. At the meeting point, the taxi driver and the guide spoke directly, so I didn't have to wait outside.

The meeting place took some time to reach, as the taxi driver was unsure even after I showed him pictures and maps. I recommend acting early.

★ Tour Content
The guide was very cheerful and spoke fluent Japanese!

The boat ride to the manta ray swimming point was quite fast and fun. Thanks to taking motion sickness medication after seeing other people's posts, I didn't get seasick. The sunset we saw along the way was also very beautiful!

When swimming with the manta rays, there were no life jackets, so as someone who can't swim at all, I was quite worried. However, I just had to hold onto the rope attached to the board and float, so I was able to enjoy it too. No worries!

I was able to see manta rays up close, and it was a very satisfying tour. Several manta rays came right in front of me multiple times, close enough to touch (though I didn't touch them).

By November, it gets cold on the way there (even colder on the way back), so I think it's better to bring a larger towel or something to wear.

ボードについているロープをつかんで浮いていれば良いだけだったので、
私でも楽しめました＾＾
心配無しです♪

目の前でマンタも見れ、とても大満足なツアーでした。
何匹ものマンタが何度も目の前に来てくれ、
触れるほどの距離です！（触れませんが＾＾）

11月ともなると行きから（帰りはもっと）寒いので、
大きめのタオルや羽織るもの等を持って行った方がよいと思います＾＾

I made eye contact with a manta! マンタと目が合った！

Reviewed by: ゆでたまご

We headed to the meeting place at Honokohau Harbor from Waikoloa by rental car, but there was a long traffic jam heading towards Kailua about 3 kilometers before Kona Airport, so it's better for those using a rental car to leave their accommodations early.

The meeting spot is a bit hard to find, but if you follow keywords like the large parking lot on the north side of the harbor (partly gravel), the big public restroom in the middle, and the building with a yellow fence and blue roof (which is easier to identify as a shed), you should be fine.

The boat can be quite bumpy, jumping on the waves, so if you are prone to seasickness, it's definitely advisable to take motion sickness medication that you bought in Japan. The boat will anchor at the manta ray viewing point, but the slight swaying here can also trigger seasickness.

The Japanese-speaking guide, Ali, is very friendly and cute. She explained the manta rays clearly for first-time participants. You hold onto a surfboard to keep your body horizontal and wait for the manta rays to come. That day, manta rays gathered one after another to feed, and we were able to see them doing flips right in front of us. It felt like they were looking at us with their big eyes, which was quite thrilling. The largest female manta ray is said to be over 4 meters long. I had an incredible and unforgettable experience, and I'm very excited. Mahalo.

集合場所のホノコハウハーバーへはワイコロアからレンタカーで向かいましたが、コナ空港手前3キロ位からカイルア方面に向って長い渋滞が起きていたのでレンタカーを利用して行く人は早めに宿を出た方が良いです。
待ち合わせ場所はちょっと分かりにくいけど、ハーバー北側の広い駐車場（一部砂利）、真ん中にある大きい公衆トイレ、黄色いフェンスと青い屋根の建物（小屋と行った方が分かりやすい）といったキーワードを辿って行けば大丈夫です。
ボートは結構激しく海面をジャンプしたりして揺れるので船酔いしやすい人は絶対に日本で買った酔い止めの薬を飲んだ方が良いです。マンタを見るポイントでボートを停泊しますが、ここでの微妙な横揺れも船酔いを誘発させます。
日本語を話すガイドのアリちゃんはとってもフレンドリーでキュートです。初めての参加の人にも分かりやすくマンタの説明をしてくれました。サーフボードにつかまって体を水平に保ちマンタが来るのを待ちます。この日は次から次へとマンタが餌を食べに集まり、目の前でくるんくるんと宙返りをする姿が直ぐ近くで見る事が出来ました。大きな目玉でギョロッとこちらを見ているような気がしてドキッとします。一番大きな雌のマンタは4メートル以上あるそうです。信じられないような未知なる体験をさせていただき大変興奮しています。Mahalo

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧　水～土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能＜フライト100分／英語パイロット／ワイコロアヘリポート＞

The best two hours! 最高の２時間！

Reviewed by: YUKO

We participated in the flight at 7 AM on November 16th! We were the only Japanese participants, which made us quite anxious, but the pilot, TOSHI, who appeared was a very cheerful and wonderful Japanese person. With 20 years of experience, he was also very good at communicating. He explained things clearly to the foreign passengers, mixing Japanese and English.

The weather that day was perfect! We could see the lava from Kilauea and the lava from the Ocean Approach clearly. More than that, the breathtaking scenery of Waipi'o Valley, which can only be seen by helicopter, left us speechless. The world’s 13th tallest waterfall was flowing beautifully. According to TOSHI, it had rained the day before, and since it was the first flight of the morning, there was a lot of water flowing. He mentioned that by around noon, the water would hardly be flowing, so I recommend an early flight for those who will participate in the future.

As for the flight itself, there was nothing to complain about, but one disappointing aspect was the hotel pickup. We were scheduled to be picked up at 5:55 AM and waited five minutes early to avoid being late, but the car actually arrived after 6:10 AM. The voucher stated to contact them if the pickup did not arrive after 15 minutes, so when I tried to get the front desk to help, the car arrived just then. It was disappointing to have woken up early for this. The pickup staff did not speak Japanese, so I couldn't voice any complaints.

Meeting TOSHI, who shares the same last name, made for an unforgettable day for us. Thank you!

１１月１６日の朝７時のフライトに２人で参加しました！
日本人の参加者は私たち夫婦だけで、かなり不安でしたが、登場してきたパイロットのTOSHIさんがとーっても明るくて素敵な日本人でした。２０年のベテランでとーってもお話上手。
一緒に搭乗した外人さんにもわかりやすく、日本語と英語を交えて説明してくれました。

この日の天候は最高！キラウエアの溶岩も、オーシャンアプローチの溶岩もしっかり見えました。それよりもワイピオ渓谷では、ヘリコプターでしか見れない壮大な景観、言葉が出ないぐらい感動してしまいました。世界で１３番目に高い滝は、しっかり水が落ちていました。TOSHIさんの話では、前日に雨が降り、朝１番でのフライトだからたくさん水が落ちている、とのこと。昼ぐらいには水はほとんど落ちないでしょう、ということなので、これから参加する方は早い時間のフライトをお勧めします。

フライトに関しては、何の申し分もないぐらいですが、１つ残念だったのが、ホテルの送迎に関して。
５時５５分のお迎え予定で、遅れないようにと５分前には待っていましたが、実際に車が来たのは６時１０分過ぎ。１５分過ぎて迎えが来ない場合は連絡をください、とバウチャーに書いてあったので、連絡しようとフロントに動いてもらったら、車が来るというタイミング。頑張って朝早く起きたことを残念に思ったスタートでした。お迎えのスタッフは日本語ができない人たちなので、文句は何も言えませんでした。

同じ苗字のTOSHIさんとの出会いは、私達夫婦にとって、忘れられない１日になりました。
ありがとうございました！

マンタと泳いだ!! swam with a manta!!

Reviewed by: ksk

Swimming with manta rays in the night sea was one of the things I wanted to do on the Big Island of Hawaii. My husband, who is terrified of swimming and entering the ocean at night, surprisingly enjoyed it as well.

First, we boarded a small boat and headed out to sea. The thrill of the speed was exhilarating! The sunset viewed from the boat was breathtaking. When the sun had completely set and it was dark, we arrived at the observation spot. We all held onto the board and floated while waiting for the manta rays. Although I said we were waiting, the rays were quickly attracted to the light beneath the board and came right up to us. I was so excited to see a manta ray glide just below my belly! The manta rays dancing gracefully in the night sea were truly mystical. I was able to take some great photos of them, and I was very satisfied!

However, as others have mentioned, it can be quite nauseating. The gentle rocking of the board was tougher than seasickness. Even my husband and I, who love thrilling rides, felt a bit queasy. It’s definitely a good idea to take motion sickness medication for peace of mind. A girl in our group looked pretty miserable from the nausea.

On the way back, we enjoyed the starry sky and felt the grandeur of the Big Island. If you’re considering participating in this activity, you absolutely should!

夜の海でマンタと泳ぐ‼私がハワイ島でやりたいことの１つでした。
ただ、泳げなく夜の海に入る事を異常に怖がる旦那。でも、そんな彼でも充分に楽しめたようです。
まず、小さなボートに乗って沖へ出ます。スピード感がスリリング‼ボートから見る夕陽は絶景です。
陽も沈みすっかり暗くなった頃に、観測スポットに到着。みんなでボードに掴まり、プカプカと浮きながらマンタを待ちます。待つと書きましたが、ボードの下の光に引き寄せられ、すぐにマンタが寄ってきます。自分のお腹下スレスレを通るマンタに大興奮♪夜の海で、ゆったりと優雅に舞うマンタは神秘的です。マンタの写真もバッチリ撮れて、大満足!!!
ただし、他の参加者の方も書かれているように、けっこう酔います。船酔いよりも、ボードのゆったりとした揺れがキツかった。絶叫系アトラクションが大好きな私たち夫妻でも、酔いました。酔い止めは飲んだほうが、安心です。一緒のグループだった女の子は、酔ってしまいかなり辛そうでした。
帰りのボートでは、星空が楽しめ、ハワイ島の雄大さを感じられます。
アクティビティに参加するか迷っている方は、絶対にやるべきです！

It seems like there are manta ray tours at night as well, so I want to participate in both next time.

The beautiful underwater world. 美しい海中の世界

Reviewed by: なかむらっち

First of all, I was impressed by the transparent and beautiful blue sea. Lucky for us, just as we left the port, we discovered a pod of dolphins swimming with their dorsal fins out of the water. We even spotted some dolphins jumping. I was able to enter the water about four times, aiming for the route the dolphins were taking. The wetsuit keeps you afloat without any effort, but if you're feeling anxious, it's a good idea to use a floatation device. I think we borrowed floatation devices for about three people this time.

During the first time in the water, I wasn't quite used to the sea yet, so I was a bit slow to put my face in the water, and I barely managed to see the dolphins swimming far away. The second time, as soon as I got in the water and put my face down, I was able to see a mother and baby dolphin swimming slowly right below me. I could also hear their cute squeaking sounds. After that, I got more comfortable in the water and was able to enjoy the sunlight filtering through the water and the sight of many dolphins swimming around me.

At the end, Daisuke, who was driving the boat, insisted that he wanted to get in the water! He switched places with Jesse and jumped in, swimming like a dolphin. I couldn't help but wonder if Daisuke was actually a dolphin (laughs).

Jesse, who also provided transportation, didn't look Japanese at all, but he spoke Japanese very well, and I was able to hear a lot of stories beyond just dolphins, which made it really enjoyable. Thank you very much!

1回目はちょっとまだ海に慣れてなかったので、顔を水に付けるタイミングが遅れて、遠くに泳いでいるイルカをなんとか見れたという感じでした。
2回目は、海に入ってすぐ顔をつけると、真下をゆっくり泳いでいく親子のイルカを見られました。
キューキューというかわいい声も聞けました。
それ以降は水に慣れてきて、海中を差し込む太陽光とたくさんのイルカの泳ぐ姿を余裕をもって見ることができました。
最後は船を運転していたダイスケさんが、どうしても海に入りたい！と言って、ジェシーさんに運転をチェンジして、海に入るとイルカみたいに泳いでました。
ダイスケさんはイルカなのかな？と思ってしまいました(笑)

送迎もしてくださったジェシーさんは全く日本人には見えませんが、日本語が大変上手くてイルカ以外の話もたくさん聞くことができ、とても楽しかったです。

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Dinner - Hawaii Forest & Trail

Beautiful Views

Reviewed by: NLKTravel

Pros: Our guide was very knowledgeable and I learned a lot. You go from sea level to about 13,800 feet, so remember to drink water. The views at 13,803 feet were beautiful. The observatories are interesting to see (from the outside). You observe stars with an 11" telescope at the visiter center parking lot. The guide points out stars/planets that everyone gets a chance to see. They give you jackets with gloves available.

Cons: It is a bumpy ride and some of the road is dirt. The "hot" meal was more of a box lunch. Bathroom breaks are limited. You do climb to 14,000', be prepared for the climate and altitude change. I was under the impression we could see more of the observatories, you only see them from the outside and are not allowed in.

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供！＜夕食付き／英語ガイド＞by マサシネイチャースクール

First mountain summit sunset 初めての山頂サンセット

Reviewed by: Hisako Tanaka

The view from the ground was a breathtaking sight unlike anything I had ever seen before. The sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea was like something you would see from an airplane, with the sun sinking into a sea of clouds. It was grand and stunningly beautiful!

At 4,200 meters, the summit is higher than Mount Fuji, and I was very worried about altitude sickness. However, the tour operator's careful consideration ensured that I was safe. I could feel my body acclimating during a dinner break at the Onizuka Visitor Center, which is at an elevation of 2,800 meters. We were well-prepared for the cold. Everyone borrowed orange ski wear, and it made for quite a striking photo. Regular visitors can only drive to the Onizuka Center, and it seems that only a few tour companies can take you to the summit from there.

After the sunset, it was finally time for stargazing! With high expectations, we descended 200 meters and looked up at the night sky from a 4,000-meter point... but the moonlight was a bit of a hindrance, and I thought, "Is this it?" The moon was quite bright, being slightly fuller than a first quarter moon.

Even so, the sky was filled with countless stars, with Venus, Saturn, Mars, and Polaris shining brightly, and we could see the Milky Way. The constellation explanations were quite detailed, making it clear why this is a nature school, and it was genuinely interesting. I was told that if I wanted to see only the stars in complete darkness, I should come back on a new moon day, and I understood why many people return for a "revenge" trip.

What was wonderful about Masashi Nature School was their concern for the participants' health, the delicious bento and miso soup, the thoughtful service of warm coffee, tea, and cookies during our cold and tiring breaks, and their photography skills, along with the service of allowing us to download the photos later... perhaps I'm praising them too much?

In any case, it was a thoroughly satisfying tour!

地上からは今までに見た事のない絶景でした。マウナケアの山頂からのサンセットは飛行機から見る様なもので、雲海に日が沈んでいくのです。壮大で息をのむような美しさでした！
4200mの山頂は富士山よりも高く私は高山病がとても心配でした。でも、催行者さんのしっかりとした配慮があり無事でした。標高2800mのオニズカビジターセンターで夕食を兼ねた休息で体が慣れていくのがわかりました。寒さ対策も万全でした。全員オレンジ色のスキーウェアを借りて写真を撮るとちょっと迫力がありました。一般の人がレンタカーで行けるのはこのオニズカセンター迄でここから先の山頂迄は数社のツアー会社しか行けないそうです。
サンセットの後はいよいよ満天の星空観測！と、期待満々で200m下山、4000mのポイントで夜空を見
上げてみると‥‥月明かりが邪魔をしてえっ？こんなモノ？くらいの星だったのです。この日は上弦の月よりも少し膨らんだ月で相当明るい月明かりでした。
それでも空には数えきれない星で金星、土星、火星、北極星は凄く明るく光っていて、天の川も見えました。星座はかなり詳しい解説でネイチャースクールの所以はこれかと言う程本格的で面白かったですね。真っ暗闇で星だけを見たかったら新月の日にリベンジして下さいと言われ納得しました。現にリベンジのリピーターは多いそうです。
マサシネイチャースクールさんの素晴らしかった所は、先ず参加者の体調を気にかけてくれた点、お弁当やお味噌汁がかなり美味しかった点、寒くて疲れた休息に温かいコーヒーや紅茶、クッキーを出してくれる心憎いサービス、そして写真を撮る技術、後で写真をダウンロードさせて貰えるサービス‥‥などなど褒めすぎかな?

とにかく大満足のツアーでした！

A manta ray approached so closely that it almost bumped into me, and it was incredibly impressive. I could see its belly and large mouth right in front of me, which was moving. Small fish also gathered around, and it felt like I could catch them, which made me very satisfied.

目の前ぶつかるくらいにマンタが迫り、迫力満点でした。おなかや大きい口の中まで目の前で見えて、感動しました。小魚も寄ってきて、つかみ取り出来そうで大変満足しました。

I was thrilled with the big win! 大当たりで大感激

Reviewed by: AKIRA5050

On our second visit to the Big Island on October 17, we decided to challenge ourselves with manta watching. We were a bit anxious at the start since our beautiful driver couldn't speak Japanese, but it turned out to be lucky as we were the only two Japanese participants on the tour, allowing us to have the shuttle and our guide, Tori, all to ourselves. The boat ride to our destination off the coast of Kona was thrilling, comparable to a ride at an amusement park, and we all cheered while enjoying the fun journey, plus we got to admire a beautiful sunset. On the way back, we also enjoyed a starry sky, so we never had a dull moment during the trip. During the main event, it was an incredible day as manta rays continuously swirled beneath me with their mouths wide open, making me gasp in awe. I was amazed by how many times the mantas brushed against the bar I was holding onto, yet I felt no fear at all. I think this might be my last chance to visit the Big Island, but I had a truly moving experience and created wonderful memories. Thank you to all the staff.

10/17　2度目のビッグアイランド訪問でやり残していたマンタウォッチに夫婦でチャレンジしました。迎えの美人ドライバーが日本語しゃべれないのでちょっと不安なスタートでしたが、当日のツアーは日本人の参加者が私たち二人だけでしたので送迎車も日本人ガイドのトリさんも独占状態でラッキーでした。コナ空港沖の目的地までのボート移動もライド系アトラクション並の衝撃とスリルでみんなで歓声を上げながら楽しい移動を体験でき、おまけに綺麗な夕日が鑑賞できました。帰路も満天の星空鑑賞付でしたので移動も暇をもてあそぶことはありませんでした。本番も、大当たりの日で私の下をひっきりなしにマンタが大きな口を開けて旋回し続け、声にならないうめき声をあげつつけていました。つかまっているバーの手に何度もマンタが触れてくるという接近戦に感動しつつも恐怖心は全くありませんでした。ビッグアイランドに来れるのも最後かと思いますが最後に感動的な経験をできいい思い出ができました。スタッフのみなさんありがとう。

プライベートチャーター　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー！GoProレンタルあり＜午前／日本語ガイド＞

You can enjoy it with peace of mind! 安心して楽しめます！！

Reviewed by: レオン

The staff were very knowledgeable about the dolphins and spoke Japanese very well. They explained how to behave to see the dolphins better, and I was able to see many of them. Additionally, they frequently checked in with everyone to see if we were able to see the dolphins and if we were enjoying ourselves. Even for someone like me who isn't a strong swimmer, I felt safe and had a great time. I highly recommend it.

スタッフの方がイルカのことをよく知り、また日本語がとても上手で、どのように行動すればイルカがよく見れるか説明してくれ、たくさん見れました。
さらにイルカがみれたか、楽しんでいるか、皆にこまめに声をかけてくれ、泳ぎが苦手な私でも、安心して楽しめました。
おすすめです。

I want to participate again!!! また、参加したいです！！！

We used this service for our honeymoon (﹡ˆˆ﹡). First of all, as others have mentioned, I had trouble finding the meeting point; I'm glad I planned to arrive a bit early. Once we arrived, we changed into half-pants wetsuits and boarded the boat for departure! The boat ride was thrilling, comparable to a roller coaster, and the 15 minutes until we reached the snorkeling area were a blast! (It might have helped that I took motion sickness medication beforehand...)

On the boat, our cute guide "Ali-chan," who spoke Japanese well, explained interesting facts about manta rays! This made me even more excited about seeing them!

Once the sun set, we began snorkeling. We all held onto a board with a rope while snorkeling. My husband can't swim, but he had no problems snorkeling at all!! (He was very happy about this ^^)

As for the mantas, we saw them five times that day☆ I was really happy to see them five times, but according to Ali-chan, that was fewer than usual... After swimming, we returned to the harbor while sipping warm cocoa. The starry sky was beautiful!!!

If I have the chance to go to the Big Island again, I would love to participate again!!

新婚旅行で利用させていただきました(﹡ˆˆ﹡)
まず、ほかの方が書いているように集合場所が見つけられず迷ってしまいました;;少し早めに着くつもりで行動しておいてよかったなと思いました。
着いたら、半ズボンタイプのウェットスーツに着替えて、ボートに乗って出発です！このボートが、ジェットコースター並にスリリングで、シュノーケリングエリアに着くまでの15分ぐらい終始楽しかったです！(事前に酔い止めを飲んでいたからよかったのかもしれませんが･･･)
船の上では、可愛くて日本語も上手なガイドの「アリちゃん」が、マンタに関する知識を解説してくれました！これで、余計にマンタに対する楽しみな気持ちが高まりました！
日が沈んだら、シュノーケリングの開始です。
みんなでロープのついたボードにつかまってシュノーケリングをします。ですので、私の旦那は泳げませんが、何の問題もなくシュノーケリングできました！！(本人はこれにとても喜んでました^^)
そして肝心のマンタですが、この日は5回マンタが見れました☆私としては、5回も見れてとても嬉しかったですが、アリちゃんによるといつもよりも少ないそうです･･･
泳ぎ終わったら、あったかいココアを飲みながら帰港しました。星空がとても綺麗でした！！！
また、ハワイ島に行くことがあれば、参加したいです！！
