ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

I was very satisfied with snorkeling in the beautiful sea. きれいな海でのシュノーケルに大満足

Reviewed by: sorata

My first time on the Big Island of Hawaii! My wife and I participated in an ocean rafting tour that included snorkeling and exploring lava cliffs. Since we departed at 10 AM, we took our time in the morning to stroll around the hotel area before driving to the harbor where we gathered with other participants. We set off a bit earlier than scheduled!

During the ocean rafting to the snorkeling point, we stopped at various spots along the way where they provided explanations, allowing us to enjoy taking photos and sightseeing. We also saw a lot of wild dolphins! I didn't expect to see so many.

At the snorkeling point, the water clarity was outstanding, and since it was in a bay, there were no waves, making it the perfect snorkeling spot. There were plenty of fish, it felt like an aquarium. The sandwiches for lunch were delicious too.

However, the sun in Kona is incredibly strong. Even though I applied sunscreen, I got a severe sunburn on my back because I was so focused on snorkeling! Be careful!

The return rafting offered a breathtaking view of the lava cliffs that can only be seen from the sea. Everyone on the tour was from overseas and they were all really nice people. Thank you!

初めてのハワイ島。シュノーケルと溶岩の岸壁でオーシャンラフティングも楽しめるということで妻と二人で参加させて頂きました！
10時出発なので、朝ゆっくりホテル周辺を散歩などして、レンタカーで集合場所のハーバーへ。他の参加者の方もみんな到着して少し早めに出発！
シュノーケルポイントまでのオーシャンラフティングでは、途中様々なスポットに止まってくれて説明してくれるので、写真撮影や観光を楽しめました。
そして野生のイルカもたくさん！こんなに居るとは思いませんでした。
シュノーケルポイントでは水の透明度が抜群で、湾の中にあるため波もなく、最高のシュノーケルスポットでした。魚の数も多く、まるで水族館。ランチのサンドイッチもおいしかったです。
ただコナの日射しがものすごく強くて。。日焼け止めしていたのですが、シュノーケルに夢中で背中がひどく日焼けしました！要注意です！
帰りのラフティングも、溶岩の岸壁で海からしか見られない貴重な景色で迫力満点。
一緒のツアーの方は皆海外の方でいい人ばかりでした。
ありがとうございました。

キラウエア火山　ヘリコプター遊覧 ＜フライト50分／英語パイロット／ヒロ空港発＞

In the end, we couldn't see from the top of the volcano. 結局火山の上からは見れず

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I used this service a year and a half ago. Due to the impact of the volcanic eruption, the routes were restricted, and I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't see the volcanic crater. I would have liked to have been informed in advance about the restricted routes.
The helicopter tour itself was very enjoyable and memorable. The pilot, who spoke English, was friendly and made it a great experience.

１年半前に利用しました。火山の噴火の影響で、ルートが制限されており、火山の噴火口は見れず少々期待はずれでした。制限ルートがあることを事前に報告してほしかったです。
ヘリコプター遊覧自体は、とても楽しく記念になりました。パイロットの方も英語ですがフレンドリーにお話してくださり、よい思い出となりました。

Kona Sunset & Moonlight Wild Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Wahine Charters

Best Manta Experience

Reviewed by: Mindy

I've taken three different groups on three different manta swims and this one was the best! I really liked how we were tethered to the boat so that inexperienced snorkelers and people that got cold could easily climb back on the boat while the rest of us could continue to enjoy the mantas. Because we were on the moonlight swim, we were in the harbor by ourselves by the end. All the mantas (four total that night) were ours to observe. It was awesome.

This is really a must-do for your Big Island trip.

I have traveled to the Big Island several times, but this was my first time participating in a tour. I was a bit anxious about going to a mountain over 4,000 meters high, but I was glad to return safely. It drizzled along the way, and I thought we might not see the stars, but as we ascended, the weather improved, and thanks to the rain, we were able to take pictures with a rainbow in the background. The sunset and stargazing at the summit were truly beautiful. They provided a thorough explanation of the constellations, and I completely forgot my worries and enjoyed myself. I did feel a bit lightheaded near the summit, but I recovered quickly. I'm already thinking about which tour to choose for my next visit to the Big Island.

ハワイ島には数回旅行をしていますが、今回初めてツアーに参加しました。4,000メートル以上の山に行くのは不安もありましたが、無事に帰る事が出来て良かったです。途中霧雨が降り、星は無理かなとあきらめていましたが、上に行くにつれ、天気が回復し、しかも雨のおかげで虹をバックに写真を撮ることも出来ました。頂上でのサンセットと星空観測は本当にきれいでした。星座の説明もしっかりして頂き、不安があったことなどすっかり忘れて楽しみました。やはり頂上付近では、頭がふわっとしましたが、すぐに回復しました。次にハワイ島に行く時はどのツアーにしようか考えています。

Great first time horseback riding!

Reviewed by: Jenny

The tour guides were very nice and skilled at their jobs: driving down the rocky, curvy road to the horse barn and then helping everyone enjoy their time on their horses. Although my horse was not the most obedient, the guides always tried to help me keep up with the group and have patience with me and the horse. I definitely enjoyed my first time horseback riding especially since the walk around the area was very beautiful. After this experience, I definitely learned how to ride a horse (lead it, understand its needs, etc) and also appreciate how beautiful Waipio valley is.

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

It was fun!! 楽しかった！！

Reviewed by: かおり

Thank you very much for your assistance this time!
I participated with a friend!

Since we rented a car, we met at the location. There were several tours and meeting points, and although we searched a bit, the roads were wide, so we had no problems and quickly found the place by asking the locals!
We gathered at 10 AM, so after enjoying a leisurely breakfast, we were able to act without any rush, which made for a wonderful time! I was thrilled to unexpectedly spot a sea turtle at the pier!
We boarded a boat with about 10 people and moved to Captain Cook's location, but we spotted a whale along the way, and we stopped several times for everyone to take photos! I appreciated that consideration!
Once we arrived at the snorkeling point, we snorkeled for about an hour and a half, and enjoyed sandwiches for lunch on the boat! The sea was beautiful, with so many gorgeous fish! It felt just like being in an aquarium! Occasionally, we heard a squeaking sound... it was dolphins!
The foreign participants in the same tour were all very nice, and we had fun conversations. It seems there are many tourists from various places!
An hour and a half went by in no time! On the way back, we stopped at a breathtaking canyon point, allowing us to enjoy not just snorkeling but other delights as well!
Just be aware that you will get sunburned, so sunscreen is definitely necessary... I got incredibly burned, which turned into quite a situation, but it's also a great memory!
When we returned to the port, we discovered another sea turtle!! Seeing it twice was amazing!!

We arrived at the port at 3 PM, so we were able to shop and sightsee in the northern part of the Big Island. Honokohau Marina is in a great location, which was another charm!

I had an experience that is hard to come by in Japan! I was healed by seeing various fish in the beautiful sea, and since we only spent a little over an hour in the water, I didn't feel tired at all. It was just the right amount of time, and if I have the chance to go to the Big Island again, I would definitely like to participate again!

Thank you very much!

この度はお世話になりありがとうございました！
友達と2人での参加させて頂きました！

レンタカーを借りてましたので、現地集合でしていくつかツアーや集合場所があり、探しましたが、道が広いので問題なく、現地の方々に聞いてすぐに見つかりました！
10時集合ということで、朝食をゆったりととったあと、バタバタすることなく行動することができましたとても良い時間でした！！
桟橋で偶然ウミガメを見つけて感動しました♡
ボートで約10名乗船しキャプテンクックの場所まで移動しましたが、途中鯨を発見し、何度か止まって頂き皆さんで撮影しました！
そのお気遣いも嬉しかったです！
シュノーケルポイント到着してからは約1時間半、シュノーケルしたり、ランチのサンドウィッチ頂きボートで食べたり！海が綺麗で、綺麗な魚がたーくさん！それはまるで水族館にいる様でした！
時折聞こえるキーキーという音が、、イルカでした♡
同じツアーに参加されていた外国人の方々も良い方ばかりで、楽しく会話したりいろんな場所から来られていて観光客が多いようですね！
1時間半は本当にあっという間！でしたが、帰り道でも絶景の渓谷ポイントに止まって下さりと、シュノーケルだけでなく、他の楽しみを味わせて頂きました！
ただ日焼けをしますので、必ず日焼け止めは必要です…とんでもなく焼けてしまい大変なことになってますが、これもまた良い思い出です！！
港に戻り、またまたウミガメを発見！！
２度も見れて最高でした！！

港には3時着でしたので、ハワイ島の北のほうへ買い物したり観光でき、ホノコハウマリーナは良い場所にありましたのでそれもまた魅力でした！！

なかなか日本では味わえない経験をさせて頂きました！綺麗な海でいろんな、魚達を見ることで癒されましたし、1時間少し海に浸かるだけですので全く疲れませんし、丁度良い時間で、またハワイ島に行く時があれば是非参加させて頂きたくおもいます！

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

I participated in ocean rafting for the first time!!! 初めてのオーシャンラフティングに参加してきました!!!

Reviewed by: sonoe

I took a taxi to the location, and as we approached the port, I looked around for the blue roof as a landmark, which made it easy to spot the various tour companies lined up. Of course, I arrived without being late for the meeting time. The check-in was all in English, but there was also a Japanese instruction manual, and after signing in, I finally boarded the boat. Since it was my first time rafting, I felt like I might be overwhelmed by the speed of the boat and the wind, but it was refreshing, and the sea and sky were truly blue and amazing! Along the way, we encountered some dolphins and whales, and we arrived at the destination, Kealakekua Bay, where snorkeling time began. This was my first time using a waterproof case for my smartphone, and I took pictures underwater myself... it was so much fun! I was completely absorbed in it!

The pineapple and oranges that the captain prepared were incredibly delicious. By the time lunch was over, we spotted some dolphins swimming a little further out in the bay, so we slowly approached them by boat, and about ten dolphins were playing around us. It was my first time seeing wild dolphins up close like this. After enjoying snorkeling time once more, we headed back along the coastline, where we could see impressive views that you can't appreciate from land. The only downside was that I couldn't understand English. It would have been even better if I could have understood the captain's explanations... That said, I still had a great time despite not understanding everything. Also, when taking a taxi, the driver made a reservation for the return trip, but I think it's good to allow a little extra time when deciding on the pickup time. We ended up making the driver wait for 30 minutes, so we had to give an extra tip.

現地までは、タクシーで行き車が港に近づくと青い屋根が目印ということだったので見つけるべくキョロキョロしましたが、いろいろなツアーの会社が並んでいてすぐにわかりました。もちろん集合時間に遅れることなく到着しました。受付ではすべて英語でしたが、日本語の説明書もありサインをしていよいよボートに乗り込みました。ラフティングが初めてだったのでボートの速さと風に負けそうでしたが、何より爽快だし海も空も本当に青く最高でした！途中アヒや鯨の仲間に遭遇しながら目的のケアラケクア湾に到着しシュノーケルタイムが始まりました。今回スマホの水中ケース初使用で海の中を自分でとりました…楽しいです！夢中になります！
キャプテンがカットして用意してくれたパインとオレンジが、めちゃくちゃおいしかった。ランチタイムが終わる頃、湾の中の少し遠くでイルカが泳いでいたのでボートで少しずつ近づいて行くと周りを１０頭くらいのイルカたちが遊んでいます。こんなに近くで野生にイルカを見たのも初めてです。もう1度シュノーケルタイムを楽しんだ後、帰りは海岸線に沿ってボートは進みますが、陸の上からでは眺めることの出来ない迫力ある景色をみることができました。残念なことは私が英語を理解できないこと。もしキャプテンの説明が理解できていたらもっと良かったでしょう…とはいえわからないなりにも十分楽しめました。それとタクシーで行く場合、運転手が帰りの迎えの予約もしてくれましたが、少し時間を余裕をみて時間を決めると良いと思います。私達は30分待たせたのでチップを余計に払うことになりました。

Reviewed by: Laura & Djani Drocic

I must start this review with big Mahalo to our tour guide Jim Carrey, you made this tour great and memorable for my wife Laura and myself. My suggestion would be for anyone interested in a great tour on the Big Island that is focused on cultural, geological, flora and fauna ecosystems of the island to book this tour for the beginning part of their stay, since it will open a number of the other visits and adventure that one can do on their own. Bring a camera and warm clothing, but if you forget your jacket don't worry your tour guide Jim is prepared with a number of coats to lend to those that had forgotten theirs. This whole day tour is packed with interesting place to visit, local folklore and legends. Jim is such a great narrator that makes the whole Hawaiian culture alive during the tour. You will be introduced to multiple Hawaiian chants, songs and legends during the entire day. Food is exquisite and plentiful, tastefully prepared to satisfied everyones need and desire. The crown jewl of this tour is night visit to Volcanic National Park for night lava viewing and star gazing. Jim is so knowledgeable in field of celestial observations and he comes prepared with a strong pair of binoculars that are powerful enough to give you glance of lava inside crater and to offer great view on planets and constellations visible from the craters edge.
Once again Mahalo to Jim Carrey and his company for offering us a unique view on Hawaiian culture and beautiful eco-system that is so different then anywhere on the planet.

Kohala Coast Guided Stand Up Paddle Adventure from Waikoloa - Hulakai

A little bit challenging, but fun!

Reviewed by: Teri and Norty

The voucher we printed was a little confusing. It had the correct zip code and address, but the wrong location in one area, and the correct location in another. Leave early so you can find the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel and the Hulakai Beach Hut. It is NOT at the Waikoloa Resort. We got there right on time and met Chris at the hut. He was very nice and friendly, low key and patient. I guess he's done this a lot with us novices! The cove was flat and glassy, and easy to get back on the board if you fall. After some practice in the cove, he lead us out past the breakers into a little more challenging water, but still not horribly choppy. Turned around and headed back into the cove. I had an easier time, so it may be more difficult for some people than others. Relax as best you can, keep looking up and you should be well on your way!

Got picked up in Kona about mid-day by Amanda and ended up with a small group of four people total. She was very friendly, welcoming, personable and knowledgeable. She was chatty in a good way and kept us engaged throughout the trip. First stop was the Punalu'u bakery for sandwiches in the gazebo on bakery grounds. Spent a little time touring the small garden and picked up some of their doughnuts for a treat later. Next stop was Black Sands beach, was hoping to see the sea turtles sunning themselves but only saw a couple in the water. On next to the National Park, saw the Volcano Lodge, Kilauea Iki lava bed, rainbow rocks, lava tubes, steam vents, and Jagger museum. Had dinner at the Kilauea military camp cafeteria which was interesting and unexpected. Very cool tour, great guide. Two thumbs up from us!

When we left the hotel, I was a bit worried about the clouds covering Mauna Kea, but the tour guide reassured us, saying, "Given the look of these clouds, as the temperature drops, the clouds will likely lower as well, so I believe the view above the clouds will be good." I felt relieved.

While we were in the car, I enjoyed the comfortable scenery while listening to the guide's gentle explanations about the Big Island.

Upon reaching the summit, we were greeted with a sunset that was even more magnificent than I had imagined. I felt incredibly happy to receive such energy and to be able to appreciate it. It was truly moving, and I realized that it undoubtedly gave me vitality for my future life.

As the sun set and the brightness of the moon filled the sky, the stargazing experience was also wonderful. I completely understand why this is the number one tour.

ホテル出発時は、マウナケア上空は雲におおわれて大丈夫かな？と感じたのですが
案内していただいたツアーガイドさんが「この雲の感じですと気温が下がってくると同時に雲が下がってきてたぶん雲の上は見晴らしが良いと思われます。」と説明してくださって、

マンタ大学夜学部　野生のマンタ＆ナイトシュノーケリングツアー ＜送迎可／日本語スタッフ乗船日あり＞

Don't have overly high expectations. 期待しすぎはNG

Reviewed by: ばななまん

At 5 PM, the pickup arrived, and it was quite painful as the Chinese passengers and the driver were talking loudly.
We arrived at the harbor, and it was a mixed tour with both foreigners and Japanese participants. Each group had its own guide.
After changing into wetsuits, we took about 40 minutes to reach the sea where the manta rays were. We sat by the side of the boat and rode like on a banana boat, which was thrilling and a lot of fun. The speed was high, and it bounced quite a bit.
At this point, there was someone who got seasick, so it might be tough for those who are prone to motion sickness. (This person was vomiting throughout the tour.)
Once we reached the manta spot, we watched the sunset sinking into the sea and continued floating in the water.
After a while, a manta ray came by to feed. The light we were using was weaker than that of other boats, so while manta rays did come, the water was murky and visibility was poor.
The strong lights from other boats allowed for clear views down to the seabed, so I think the difference in price is due to the number and strength of the lights.
In the end, about five manta rays came by, but I had expected to see many more, so I felt a bit unlucky.

夕方17時に迎えが来て、中国人とドライバーが大声で話をしながらの行きになったので結構苦痛。。
ハーバーに着いて、外国人と日本人の混合ツアーでした。外国人と日本人それぞれにガイドさんが付く感じです。
ウエットスーツに着替え、40分ほどかけてマンタのいる海へ。ボートの脇に座りながらバナナボートのようにして行くので、めちゃめちゃスリルがあって面白かったです。※スピードも出てかなり跳ねます
この時点で酔っている人がいたので、酔いやすい人にはキツイのかな。。(この人はツアー中ずっと嘔吐してました)
マンタスポットに着いてから、海に沈む夕日を見届けて海へ浮かび続けます。
しばらくすると餌を食べにマンタが１枚やってきました。
こちらで使用している光は他の船より弱く、マンタがやってくることはやってきますが海が濁っていて良く見えません。
他の船の強い光は海底までキレイに見えていたので、値段の違いは光の数と強さだと思いました。
最終的には5回くらいマンタが来てくれましたが、何枚も来てくれるものだと期待してしまっていたので少し運が無かったです。

I had reserved standard seats, so I checked in early and waited for the opening at 5:30 PM. As a result, I was guided to standard seats close to the stage.
Looking around, I noticed there were few Japanese people, which made me feel like I was abroad.
The buffet line started with the premium seats, so I had to wait quite a bit. The buffet offered a variety of dishes, including Hawaiian cuisine, and the portions were generous.
The hula dance and fire dance shows were impressive. The engaging female host guided the show, and the Western audience was really into her talk. I realized I need to improve my English skills.
Overall, I had a very satisfying time with the show, the food, and the atmosphere around me.

　スタンダート席を予約してましたので、早めに受け付けをして17:30からの開場を待ちました。その結果、舞台に近いスタンダート席に案内されました。
　周りを見ても日本人は少なく、海外に来たなと感じました。
　ビュッフェの順番はプレミアム席の後にスタンダート席なので、少し（だいぶ）待ちくたびれました。ビュッフェ料理はハワイ料理のほか種類も多く、ボリュームたっぷりでした。
　フラダンスとファイアーダンスのショーは迫力がありました。味のある司会者（女性）がショーの進行をされており、そのトークに欧米人はかなりノリノリでした。私は英語力をつけなければと痛感しました。
　全体的には、ショー、料理、周りの雰囲気などとても満足した時間を過ごせました。

マンタ大学夜学部　野生のマンタ＆ナイトシュノーケリングツアー ＜送迎可／日本語スタッフ乗船日あり＞

"Unfortunately, the manta rays did not appear this time..." 「今回は残念ながらマンタが現れず・・・」

Reviewed by: Mines

Actually, this was my second time participating in this tour. During my first experience, a large number of manta rays showed up, creating a truly magical spectacle, and I wanted to see it again. However, this time, surprisingly, there were no manta rays. Since it was my second time, I was still okay, but I felt heartbroken thinking about the two couples who were on their honeymoon and participating for the first time. Of course, the tour company and the staff did their best, so they are not at fault, but I believe that since this is an activity involving nature, participants should keep in mind that it is different from visiting an aquarium.

I was told that I could participate for free in the manta tour the next day or the dolphin tour in the morning, so I chose to join the dolphin tour. That turned out to be a huge success, and unlike the previous dolphin tour that was a complete failure, I had a precious experience where I could "swim together" with a large number of dolphins, which was ☆☆☆☆☆. Activities on the Big Island can sometimes be like this, so I recommend allowing extra time during your stay and trying to schedule activities for the earlier part of your trip as soon as you arrive. Although I couldn't see the manta rays this time, there is no doubt that this tour, along with the helicopter tour, is one that you absolutely must do among all the activities in Hawaii.

実は、このツアーは２回目の参加で１回目の時、大量のマンタがやってきてまさに幻想的なショーのような光景を見て、また、もう一度見たいと思い参加しました。
ただ、今回はまさかの「マンタ来ず」。
私らは二回目だったのでまだ良かったですが、初参加の２組のハネムーナーの方々の気持ちを思うと心が痛みました。
勿論ツアー会社やスタッフの皆さんはちゃんと頑張ってやってもらいましたので、何も悪くないのですがやはり「自然を相手にしているアクティビティ」なので、水族館とは違うと肝に銘じてご参加されるべきと思います。

・翌日のマンタツアー、もしくは翌日の午前中のイルカツアーに無料参加していいですよと言われたので、イルカツアーに参加しました。それは逆に大当たりで以前全くダメだったイルカツアーと違って大量のイルカとまさに「一緒に泳げた」ような貴重な体験が出来てそれは☆☆☆☆☆でした。ハワイ島のアクティビティはこういう事も稀にありますので、滞在期間を余裕目に取る事とアクティビテイは、なるべく到着したら前半の日程でやっておく事をお勧めします。　　今回は見る事が出来ませんでしたがこれは本当にハワイのあらゆるアクティビテイの中でヘリコプターツアーと共に「絶対やるべきツアー」である事に間違いありません。

I shouldn't have changed my seat (TT). 席を変更しなければよかった（TT）

Reviewed by: miyu

I decided to change to a premium seat at the last minute because I wanted to see as close as possible. I admit I was at fault for making this plan on the day I arrived, but since the hotel was on the premises and the seats were assigned, I thought it would be fine even if I was a bit late. However, when I got there, there was already a group in front of me, making it very difficult to see. Even though they advertised free drinks, they didn't come to take my order when I called out (they did go to other foreign guests), and I wasn't given a lei either. I regretted changing my seat many times. I also had a bad experience at the Hilton in Oahu, and I think this was the worst. I was really looking forward to it...

できるだけ近くで見たいと思い直前にプレミアシートに変更をしました。現地へ着く日にこの予定を入れたのはこちらにも落ち度があったけどホテルは敷地内だし席は決まっているのだし、遅れても大丈夫だと思い行ってみると、前には既に団体がいてとても見えにくい位置でした。飲み物もフリードリンクといいながら、声をかけてもオーダーを取りに来ないし（他の外人のところへは来る）レイもかけてもらえなかったし、こんなことなら席を変更しなければ良かったと何度も思いました。オアフでもヒルトンではいい思いをしなかったし最低だと思いました。楽しみにしていたのに・・・。
