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＞

The best memories. 最高の思い出。

Reviewed by: さっちゃん

This time, I participated with my mother. Last year, I went to Oahu with my friends and saw wild dolphins for the first time. I wanted my mother to experience that excitement too, so I joined this tour, hoping to be guided by Daisuke, based on everyone's reviews! Just as the reviews said, Daisuke's love for dolphins and his strong desire for us to see them really came through, and I couldn't stop feeling excited from the car ride there! In reality, we encountered many dolphins, including a newborn dolphin that Daisuke said he had never seen before, which was incredibly thrilling! If I have the chance to go to Hawaii Island again, I would definitely want to join this tour. The boat was very rocky until we got out to sea, so I think it's safer for those who are prone to seasickness to take motion sickness medication. For those participating in the tour, please enjoy it with peace of mind!

今回、母と2人で参加しました。
去年、友達とオアフ島に行き野生のイルカを初めてみました。母にもあの感動を味わってもらいたくて、初のハワイ島で皆さんの口コミを参考にぜひダイスケさんに案内してもらいたくこちらのツアーに参加させて頂きました！
口コミ通り、ダイスケさんのイルカに対する愛や、わたし達に絶対イルカを見てもらいたいという想いが物凄く伝わってきて行きの車中からワクワクが止まらなかったです！実際、たくさんのイルカや、ダイスケさんも初めて見たと言ってた産まれたてのイルカの赤ちゃんにも遭遇でき物凄く興奮しました！またハワイ島に行く機会があれば必ず参加したいツアーです。沖に出るまでの船がとても揺れる為、船酔いしやすい方は酔い止めを内服された方が安心だと思います。ツアーに参加される方、安心して楽しんできてくださいね。

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

If you come to the Big Island, you absolutely must go!! I highly recommend it♪♪ ハワイ島に来たなら、絶対に行くべきっ！！絶対にお勧め♪♪

Reviewed by: SANAE

I joined this tour because my husband wanted to see the sunset and the starry sky. First, we picked up participants from the hotel one by one. On this day, there were 13 participants in total, filling one bus (4 individuals, 4 couples, and 1 solo traveler). Since the Big Island of Hawaii is large, it took some time for pickups, but we stopped by a small shop along the way to pass the time (about 20 minutes). The guide provided very thorough explanations and shared various information about the Big Island.

Since the elevation is higher than Mount Fuji, we had an early dinner (around 4 PM) to acclimatize our bodies and took a restroom break. I was worried about altitude sickness, but the guide kept reminding us to drink water every 10 minutes, take deep breaths, and absolutely not to sleep!!! I only felt a slight headache, so I was okay. When we got off partway up the mountain, it was my first experience feeling the thin air and physical strain.

By the time we reached the summit, my body had acclimatized. Unfortunately, there were many clouds that day, and it rained on and off, but I was deeply moved and felt a sense of mystery as we barely managed to see the sunset. A little below the summit, we began our star observation! Due to the clouds, the guide had us wait in the car for a while until the clouds cleared. I believe the guides were considerate to ensure we could see the stars in the best possible conditions.

The moment we got out of the car, it felt like the stars were falling right above us!!!! After a while, the clouds covered the sky again, so we moved to another spot to observe the stars. There was some wind, and even when the clouds obscured our view, if we waited a bit, we saw even more stars than before!!!! We could even see the Milky Way clearly!!! Looking sideways, there were stars, and it made me realize that the Earth is round.

Additionally, the guide explained the constellations with a super laser beam, making it feel like an impromptu lecture, which was fun!

What was great about this tour was that it included warm clothing, which is not offered by other tours. Even though we waited outside for a long time without seeing stars, thanks to the warm clothing, I didn’t feel cold at all and enjoyed snacks and drinks. I heard that other tours leave if the stars aren’t visible (in fact, there were no other tour groups around).

Moreover, the guide took photos with a high-quality camera that he purchased out of his own pocket, and we could download them for free! Normally, they would charge for this, but he said, “Memories over records,” and provided this as a service. I deducted one star because it was cloudy and not all stars were visible, which was disappointing.

If you come to the Big Island, I wholeheartedly recommend Masashi Nature School!!! Thank you for everything!!!

主人が、夕日と星空を見たいと言っていたのでこのツアーに参加しました。
まず、順々にホテルから参加者をピックアップしていきます。
この日は、１台のバス満員で１３人参加でした。
（４人参加、カップル参加４組、１人参加）
ハワイ島は広いので、ピックアップに時間かかりますが、途中ちょっとしたお店に寄り、時間を潰したりしました。（約20分）
ガイドさんがとても丁寧に説明して下さり、ハワイ島についての情報など色々教えて頂きました。
富士山よりも標高が高いので、身体を慣れさすために、途中で早めの（16時ぐらい）夕食（お弁当）を取り、トイレに行ったりしました。
高山病を心配しましたが、ガイドさんが登ってる間、水を１０分おきにとること、深呼吸をしっかりすること、絶対に寝ない事！！！ずーっとおっしゃってくれていたので、じゃっかん頭痛を感じたぐらいで、大丈夫でした。山頂の途中で降りた時は、身体がしんどく空気が薄いと感じた初めての体験でした。

山頂に着くと、身体も慣れてきてきました。この日は、あいにく雲が多く雨が降ったり止んだりでしたが、夕日はかろうじて見れて大変感動し、神秘的でした。
山頂から少し下ったところで、いざ★の観察！雲が多く、ガイドさんが雲が履けるまでしばらく車の中で待機していました。
おそらく感動してもらう為に、一番いい状態で見てもらう為にガイドさん達が配慮してくれたのだと思います。
車からでた瞬間、頭上に★が降ってくるかのようでした！！！！
しばらくすると、雲で覆われてしまい、場所を移動しそこで★を観察。風もあったので、
雲がかかって見えなくなっても、しばらく待っているとさっきよりも★が沢山★★★！！！！
なんと天の川もくっきりみえました！！！
真横にみても★があり、地球は丸いんだなーと感じさせられました。
また、ガイドさんが、超レイザービームで星座の説明をして頂き、即席講座みたいな感じで楽しかったです♪

このツアーで良かったのは、他のツアーにはない、防寒具が付いていること。
★が見えなくてかなり外で待っていましたが、防寒具のお陰で、全然寒くなく飲み物お菓子など頂きました。他のツアーだと星がみえないと帰ってしまうそうです。
（実際、他のツアーの方はいませんでした）
また何より、ガイドさんが自腹で購入した超高画質カメラで、写真を撮って頂き、無料でダウンロードできるところ！本来お金を取られるとこですが、”記憶より記録”と言って、サービスだそうです。
★を一個減らしたのは、曇りで全部★というわけではなかったので、残念な気持ちで減らしました。
ハワイ島にきたら、是非、マサシネイチャースクール、心からお勧めします！！！！！
色々ありがとうございました！！！！！

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＞

The guide was wonderful! ガイドの方が素晴らしい！

Reviewed by: asako

I participated with my parents.

The location of the shop was a bit hard to find, and we got lost, but the staff were very kind, which made us feel at ease. The rafting boat was faster and more thrilling than I imagined, but it felt great and was a lot of fun! We stopped at a point where we could see dolphins, and they explained the history of Hawaii (in English). The snorkeling spot was also wonderfully beautiful, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. My mother, who said she would wait on the boat, ended up enjoying snorkeling as well, and our whole family was very satisfied!

For lunch, we had turkey sandwiches on the boat, and afterwards, they cut up fresh pineapple right there, which was a big hit with all the guests. After snorkeling, on our way back to the port, we stopped by some lava cliffs to take pictures.

Since you can get quite sunburned, it's better to apply sunscreen frequently. Our family got so caught up in snorkeling that our backs got completely burned (laughs).

Since we met at the location, I wish there was a more helpful map for the meeting point; otherwise, it was such a wonderful experience that I would give it a perfect score. I want to go again!!

親と三人で参加してきました。

ちょっとお店の場所が分かりづらくて、迷いましたがスタッフさんがとても言い方で安心しました。
ラフティングボートは想像以上に速くてスリリングでしたが、すごく気持ちが良くて楽しかったです！
イルカに会えるポイントで停まったり、ハワイの歴史を説明してくれたり（英語）、シュノーケリングスポットも素晴らしくキレイでツアーを堪能できました。
ボートで待っていると言っていた母もすっかりシュノーケリングを楽しみ家族全員大満足です！
ランチはボートの上でターキーサンドを頂いて、そのあとにパイナップルをその場で切ってくれてお客さん皆から大好評。
シュノーケリングが終わって、港に戻る途中で溶岩の岸壁にいくつか立ち寄り写真を撮ってくれました。

かなり焼けるので、日焼け止めはこまめに塗った方がいいです。うっかりシュノーケリングに夢中になった我が家は背中が丸焼けになりました（笑）

現地集合な分、集合場所の地図がもっと親切にあれば大満足をつけたいところなくらい素敵な体験をしました。また行きたいです！！

Guided Waipio Valley Horseback Riding & Waterfall Tour [Closed]

Best Way to Visit Waipeo Valley

Reviewed by: David Case

Horseback is maybe the best way to experience the Waipeo Valley. Our guides and horses were very experienced. My only critique is that I wish we'd had more time to talk with the guides-- maybe even after we got back to the stables. It was also a good value for the money, but I'd have paid more for some extra time with them.

野生のマンタ　シュノーケリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／軽食付き＞

So-so. まあまあ

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated with my sister. At first, there were no manta rays at all, and I was worried about what would happen if it ended like this, but in the last 30 minutes, a lot of them gathered, and we were able to see them quite up close!! When we entered the water, we were handed floats, but I didn't understand the English instructions well and only figured it out by watching the people around me. It might be a bit tough if you're participating alone and don't understand English. Even though it was a reasonably priced tour, I was glad to see the manta rays. It seems like they gather due to the lights from the boat, and the other boats were much brighter, attracting a lot more manta rays. I might want to try that one next time.

妹と二人で参加しました。最初、マンタは全く現れず、このまま終わったらどうしようと不安になりましたが、最後30分くらいでいっぱい集まってきて、かなり間近で見れました!!海に入る際にフロートを渡されたのですが、英語がよくわからず、回りの人をみてやっと理解。。一人参加で英語がわからないとちょっとツラいかもです。リーズナブルなツアーでも、マンタを見れたのでよかったですが、船の明かりでマンタを集める仕組みのようで、他の船の方がものすごく明るくてマンタもよく集まってるみたいでした。次回はそっち乗りたいかも。。

ハワイ島 パラセイリング ＜午前・午後／カイルアコナ発＞ by UFO Parasail

Awesome! 最高！

Reviewed by: けんさく

We experienced this as a family of four. Since we have a 5-year-old, we were worried about fear and seasickness right up until the last minute, but there was absolutely no need to worry. Our child was very excited and happy while up in the air. Depending on the weather conditions on the day, there usually isn't much stopping of the boat, so I think it's fine even for those who are sensitive to motion sickness.

Although Japanese is not spoken, they provide explanations in a polite manner, so even those with limited English can manage. The waiver sent by the operating company via email is in English, but I think it's best to understand it well and sign it.

I'm really glad we did this experience; it was the best!

　家族4人で体験しました。5歳の子がいるので、怖がったり船酔いが心配で直前まで悩みましたが、心配する必要はまったくありませんでした。上空では大はしゃぎしとても喜んでいました。当日の気象状況にもよりますが、停船することはあまりないので船が弱い人でも大丈夫だと思います。
　日本語は通じませんが、丁寧に説明してくれるので英語が弱い人でもどうにかなります。事前に催行会社からメールで送られる誓約書は英文ですが、良く理解し署名した方がいいと思います。
　体験してよかった最高です。

At the hotel front for the pickup, there was a high-energy guide who greeted us with "Aloha!" The sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea and the starry sky were amazing, but we were constantly laughing at the guide's delightful stories. They adjusted our cameras so we could capture the starry sky and even took photos with us. The delicious dinner, miso soup, and warm jackets were truly thoughtful touches. I would love to sign up again when I visit the Big Island. Thank you very much!

The number and variety of fish are lacking. 魚の数や種類はイマイチ

Reviewed by: ありのまま

The staff were kind and entertaining, which was great, but overall, the experience felt lacking. I participated in snorkeling for the first time in the Hawaiian islands, with many repeat visitors promoting it, so I had high expectations. However, there were few fish in terms of both quantity and variety, and I felt it wasn't worth the time and money spent. The waters in Okinawa and Asia are definitely much clearer and have more fish! Is this what Hawaii is like? I also had high hopes for the luxurious BBQ, but aside from snacks, the only real meal was a hamburger. The burger they grilled on-site was indeed delicious, but I felt that Americans have a rather limited diet during this trip. By the way, we were the only Japanese people there, and no one spoke Japanese at all.

スタッフの方々は親切で、なにかとおもしろく楽しませてくれてよかったのですが、全体的に内容がイマイチといった感じでした。ハワイの離島で初のシュノーケリング、リピーター多数というフレコミで、とても期待して参加したのですが、魚の数も種類も少なく、こんな時間とお金をかけてくるほどじゃないなと思ってしまいました。沖縄やアジアの海の方がだんぜんキレイで魚も多い！ハワイってこんなもんなの？という印象です。豪華ＢＢＱとあるのも期待したのですが、スナックを除けば食事らしい食事はハンバーガーだけ。その場で焼いてくれるバーガーは確かに美味しかったけど、アメリカ人って食生活が乏しいと感じる旅行でした。
ちなみに、日本人は私たちだけでした。日本語は全く通じません。

Miraculous summit! 奇跡の登頂！

Reviewed by: UKCITANE

Solo trip to the Big Island. 4 nights in Hilo, 4 nights in Kona. On the day before the last day of the trip, I joined a stargazing tour at Mauna Kea! There was a warning about a demonstration before departure, and I was informed that we might not be able to climb... but I believed in miracles and decided not to cancel. The demonstration was lifted five days after arriving on the Big Island, but there was an unusual snowfall the night before in July, and the gate was closed... However, the snow melted along the way, and we were able to reach the summit! The sunset from the top of Mauna Kea, with snow still remaining, was incredibly magical, and I didn't feel much cold due to the lack of wind, which was very moving. Our guide, Yo, was young but knowledgeable about many things, and he provided excellent service by sharing stories about the Big Island and Mauna Kea from start to finish, as well as taking lots of photos. During the stargazing guide, he talked about the stars using a laser pointer. I believe this is something you can only experience here. It was unfortunate that the Onizuka Visitor Center was closed, so I give it 4 stars, but when I come back to the Big Island, I would like to participate in a sunrise tour next time. Thank you!

ハワイ島1人旅。ヒロ４泊、コナ４泊。旅の最終日前日、マウナケアの星空観測ツアーに！出発前デモがあり、登れないかも…と連絡がありましたが、奇跡を信じキャンセルせず挑みました。デモはハワイ島到着５日前に解除したと事のでしたが、７月には滅多にない雪が前夜降りゲートが閉まっている…と。が、途中雪も溶け登頂出来ることに！マウナケア登頂で見る夕日は雪が残る中とても幻想的で風もなく寒さもさほど感じられずとても感動しました。ガイトのヨウ君は若いながら色々な事を知っており、最初っから最後までハワイ島の事、マウナケアの事の話や、写真を沢山撮ってくれたり、とてもよいサービスをしてくださいました。特に星空のガイドではレーザーポインターで星についてお話してくれました。これは、絶対にココでないと味わえない事だと思います。オニヅカビジターセンターは閉まっていたのが残念で★４ですが、またハワイ島に来る時は今度はサンライズのツアーに参加したいと思います。ありがとうございました！

Volcano & Kona Coffee Farm Tour with Night Lava Viewing (from Kona / Waikoloa)

Volcano, Coffee, and Turtles

Reviewed by: Sheryl

This tour was excellent! I was picked up from the hotel promptly at the time given. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We visited a coffee farm, then went to a black beach to view turtles before heading to Volcano National Park. Lunch and dinner was included and both were good. I had wondered whether doing a tour to the Volcano Park would allow adequate time there, and it was just the right amount of time, staying until after dark to view the lava.

I was able to enjoy it slowly, and it was very good. ゆっくり楽しめてとてもよかった

Reviewed by: S＆Jfrom湘南

They lent me cold weather gear like down jackets, overpants, hats, and gloves, which kept me very warm. I had a light down jacket myself, but it wasn't necessary. Since I was mostly in the car and didn't walk much, it was better to minimize my luggage. I was almost hands-free, and that was great.

This was my first time at Sunset. It seemed better than Sunrise. I was able to prepare various things while it was still bright, which gave me a sense of ease, and it wasn't too cold. I enjoyed the sunset slowly, both before and after the sun went down. Now, for the exciting starry sky. I signed up aiming for a new moon day, and even though it was just before the meteor shower, I was able to see shooting stars. The guides, Kouno and You, explained the stars very clearly. I can't remember difficult explanations anyway, but I did remember Sagittarius, Scorpius, Libra, Cygnus, and the Summer Triangle! Thank you! We will be back!

防寒具はダウン、オーバーズボン、帽子、手袋を貸してくれとても暖か。自分でライトダウンとか持ってたけど必要なかった。ほとんど車に乗ってて歩かないので、荷物は極力減らしたほうがいい。自分はほぼ手ぶらだったけど良かったよ。

サンセット初参加。サンライズよりよかったような。明るいうちにいろいろ支度し気持ちにゆとりがあり、あまり寒くもなく。日が落ちるまでももちろん、落ちてからも夕焼けをゆっくりと満喫しました。さあお楽しみの星空。新月の日を狙って申し込み、流星群の少し前だったけど流れ星も見えたし。ガイドのコウノさんとヨウさんの星の説明がとってもわかりやすかった。難しい説明はどうせ覚えられないけど、いて座とさそり座とてんびん座、白鳥座と夏の大三角形は覚えたよ！ありがとう！We will be come back !

Reviewed by: りゅうのすけ

I couldn't fly on the reserved day due to the weather, so I rebooked for two days later, but again the weather was not good. It's sunny in Waikoloa, but the Hilo side was not. On both days, I had watched all the emergency evacuation and safety confirmation videos during the flight, but in the end, a staff member came out from the office and said, "I'm sorry."

Since it's nature, these things can happen. In the end, a Japanese pilot named TOSHI came out and said, "I'm really sorry this time. Please come again next time! We're waiting for you," and he handed me his business card with a refreshing greeting. I was very happy with this kind consideration. I hope to ride in TOSHI's helicopter next year for sure.

予約した日にお天気の関係で飛べず、再チャレンジで２日後に予約しましたが、またまたお天気がNGでダメでした。ワイコロアは晴天なんですけどね、ヒロ側がダメで。両日ともフライト中の緊急避難や安全確認のビデオも全部見終わっていたんですが、最後に事務所からスタッフの方が出てこられて「ごめんなさいね」と。
自然相手ですからこういうこともありますね。
最後に日本人パイロットのTOSHIさんが出てこられて「今回は本当に残念です。次の機会に是非来てくださいね！お待ちしています」と名刺を渡してくださって爽やかにご挨拶してくださいました。こういう心遣い、とても嬉しかったです。来年こそTOSHIさんのヘリに乗せていただきたいです。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー　滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く！＜午前・午後／英語ガイド／食事付＞by フェアウィンド号

You can enjoy the sea of Hawaii in a compact way! コンパクトにハワイの海を楽しめます！

Reviewed by: りゅうのすけ

From 8 AM to around 2 PM, you can leisurely enjoy the waters of Hawaii. I participated with my 7-year-old daughter (who had a rental life jacket and brought her own goggles), my mother (who had a rental float and a rental snorkeling set), and my father (who also had a rental snorkeling set). We were able to relax more than we expected.

The crew was cheerful, bright, and kind, and the onboard restroom was spacious and clean. For lunch, the crew cooked hamburgers and hot dogs on the boat (with smoke billowing), and we could choose our favorites to put in buns. Since we were on a boat, it was a bit bumpy, but the open atmosphere made it enjoyable.

The boat doesn’t sway much, and the sea breeze is truly refreshing. However, if you're concerned about sunburn or are traveling with children, it’s better to line up a bit early to secure indoor seating on the first floor. It can get hot, though. About 30% of the seats are indoors on the first floor, while 70% are on the second floor (the central part has a vinyl roof for shade, but the first floor is more reliable). The first floor also has all the windows open, allowing the breeze in and providing a nice view. I think it would be good for the kids and mothers to have long-sleeve rash guards and UV hats that can get wet (my daughter got a sunburn on her scalp after just two hours of snorkeling).

We didn’t have any issues with English, but the crew explains everything in English, so if you feel anxious about that, it’s good to prepare yourself a bit. However, I think you can understand what’s happening by observing those around you. There were only a few Japanese participants.

The snorkeling area was calm, with almost no waves and high visibility, allowing us to see many fish. However, there were also people from other tours, which felt a bit crowded compared to the Hawaiian vibe.

I highly recommend it.

朝の８時から２時ぐらいまで、ゆっくりハワイの海を楽しめます。
７歳の娘（貸し出し用ライフジャケット＋持参ゴーグル）と母（貸し出し用浮き輪＋貸し出し用シュノーケルセット）と父（貸し出し用シュノーケルセット）での参加でしたが、思った以上にリラックスして参加できました。
クルーも陽気で明るく親切、船内のトイレも大きくきれいです。ランチのハンバーガーとホットドックも船上でクルーが調理してくれ（煙モクモク出てました）好きなものをパンに挟んでいただく形式です。船の上なので多少ガサガサしますが、開放的な雰囲気で楽しいです。
船はそんなに揺れませんし海風は本当に気持ち良いですが、日焼けに気を付けたい方やお子さん連れの方は１階の屋内の席を確保する為、少し早目に乗船の列に並んだ方が良いです。これが暑いんですけど。座席は３割が１階屋内、７割が２階（中央部分はビニールの屋根がついているので日よけにはなりますが、１階の方が確実です）。１階も窓全開なので風が入って景色も見えて気持ちいいですよ。でもお子さんとお母さんは長袖ラッシュガード＆お子さんは濡れても良いUV帽子があるといいと思います（娘は２時間のシュノーケリングであっという間に頭皮日焼けです）。
私たちは英語の心配はなかったので問題はなかったのですが、クルーは英語ですべてを説明しますので、ここに不安を感じる方は少し心の準備を。ただ、周りの方の動きを見ていれば何が起こっているかはわかると思いますが。日本人は２，３組の参加でした。
シュノーケリングポイントのエリアは波もないと言っていいぐらい穏やかで透明度も高く沢山の魚を見ることが出来ます。ただ、このツアー以外のツアーの人々も勿論いらして、ちょっとハワイの感覚からすると人口密度が高く感じますけれども。
お勧めです。

It was fun!! 楽しかった!!

Reviewed by: pocopipi

We participated as a group of five: three adults and two children (ages 10 and 13). There were also four American family members, making a total of nine people in the group. The young woman who checked us in at the meeting point drove a 4WD to the stable at the bottom of the valley, and she led us on horseback. A young man followed behind us. My horse was very well-behaved and hardly needed any reins, but my sister's and niece's horses tended to stray from the line to eat grass or started running a bit, which required some attention in the beginning. However, the young man behind us quickly helped, so there was no need to worry. For a full two hours, we were healed by the vibrant green of the valley and the sound of hooves, and everyone was very satisfied with the activity.

大人３人子ども２人（10歳、１３歳）の５人で参加。他に米国人家族４人と合計9人のグループでした。集合場所で受付してくれたお姉さんが4WDを運転して谷底の厩舎まで行き、そのお姉さんが馬の先頭でリードしてくれました。後方に若い男性がついてくれました。私の馬はとてもいい子で手綱さばきもほとんど必要なしでしたが、後方の妹や姪の馬は草を食べるのに列からはみ出たり、少し走りだしたりもして前半少し気を使ったようです。でも、後方の男性がすぐに助けてくれてたので心配ありません。たっぷり２時間、鮮やかな谷底の緑に癒され、パカパカと蹄の音にも癒され、全員大変満足なアクティビティーでした。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I stayed at the Sheraton Kona, and it was very close to the meeting point, just a 2-3 minute walk from the hotel entrance, which made me feel secure about participating.

Although the staff only spoke English, they were very kind, so I didn't feel particularly anxious about reconfirming over the phone on the day of the event. I was the only Japanese participant at that time, and most others seemed to be from the mainland United States. There were elderly individuals who needed canes to walk, as well as a few babies just a few months old, but everyone was enjoying themselves in their own way. They provide everything you need for snorkeling, such as fins, goggles, and flotation devices, so you can go hands-free without any issues.

The boat was larger than I expected, accommodating over 50 people. It had a diving platform and a slide, allowing for various ways to enjoy Kealakekua Bay.

Breakfast consisted of light items like muffins and fruit, while lunch was a style where you could assemble your own burger or hot dog with meat grilled on the boat. I had a burger, and it was delicious.

I debated between the afternoon course and the morning one, but the two-hour option flew by, so I recommend the longer morning course.

シェラトン・コナに滞在していましたが、集合場所までホテル玄関から徒歩2,3分ととても近く安心して参加できました。

英語のみですが、スタッフの方はとても親切なので電話のリコンファームも当日も特に不安を感じることはありません。このときの日本人参加者は私だけで、ほかはほとんどがアメリカ本土の方のようでした。歩くのに杖が必要な高齢の方もいらっしゃいましたし、生後数ヶ月の赤ちゃんもいましたが、みんな思い思いに楽しんでいました。フィンやゴーグル、浮き具などシュノーケリングに必要なものはすべて貸してくれますので手ぶらで問題ありません。

船は思ったより大きく、50人以上は乗っていました。飛び込み台や滑り台もついていて、ケアラケクア湾ではさまざまな遊び方をすることができます。

朝食はマフィンやフルーツなど軽いものですが、昼食は船の上で焼いてくれたお肉でバーガーかホットドッグを自分で盛り付けて食べるスタイルで、バーガーを食べましたがおいしかったです。

午後のコースと悩みましたが、2時間でもあっという間でしたので、午前の長いコースがおすすめです。

My Son, Daughter and Myself had a great time, our guides were funny, helpful and very personable. What can you say about finishing the day with a 3,350' run that lasts over a minute, WHOW! This is our second Hawaii Zip Line and I would recommend it as a bucket list for everyone.

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ（キングカメハメハホテル内）＜ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題／シェルレイ付＞

If you want to enjoy the atmosphere, 雰囲気を楽しむのであれば

Reviewed by: 、＆％

If you're looking to enjoy the atmosphere, it might be fine, but the satisfaction level is low, so the cost performance isn't good. The talks between the shows were long, and if you don't understand English, you won't know what they're saying, so the show ended without understanding anything from start to finish.

The food portions were large, but there wasn't anything particularly delicious, and it rained during the event, so both the drinks and food got wet. They provided ponchos, but I didn't think it was a show worth seeing while wearing one.

On another day, I watched the show from the balcony of the Kinkame Hotel, and perhaps because the weather was nice, it seemed like they performed for a longer time than during our visit.

If someone asked me whether I would recommend it, I would not.

雰囲気を楽しむのであれば、よいのですが、満足度が低いのでコスパはよくないですね。ショーの合間のトークが長いので、英語がわからないと何を言っているのかわからず、最初から最後までわからないままショーが終わりました。
お料理も量は多目ですが、特別おいしいものがなく、途中雨がふりましたので、ドリンクもお料理も雨入りです。ポンチョが支給されましたが、ポンチョきてまで、見るショーとは思いませんでした。
別の日にキンカメホテルのバルコニーからショーを見てましたが、天気がよかったせいか、私たちの時よりも、長めにショーをしているように思われました。
人に勧めるかと聞かれたら、おすすめはしないです。

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＞

Rafting is the best! ラフティング最高！

Reviewed by: kaorin

I was moved by the experience of rafting and being able to see dolphins up close! It's a rare opportunity in Japan to see them that closely, so I think it was a very valuable experience.

Also, diving into the sea to see fish and coral was, of course, impressive, but the sandwiches, snacks, and fruits we ate on the boat tasted exceptionally good! The boat sped through the sea and made turns! It was thrilling, and I had a lot of fun throughout the experience.

The guide was very kind and made it easy for us Japanese participants to understand by adding gestures.

At first, I was scared because of the speed, but the guide was so entertaining that it turned out to be a great experience. On the way to snorkeling, I was moved by how many dolphins we encountered. I even got to see them jump up close. Snorkeling was great too, as I saw many coral reefs and schools of fish.

Lunch was fulfilling, and the guide cut fresh pineapple and oranges right in front of us. On the way back, we went near an area where we could see various layers of earth and received explanations. I am very satisfied with the experience, which is something I can't do much in Japan.

ラフティングを体験して、
イルカにあんなに近くで見れたことに感動しました！日本ではなかなかあんなに近くで見れないのですごく貴重な体験だと思います。
あと、海にもぐって魚や、サンゴを見れたことはもちろん感動しましたが、船の上で食べるサンドイッチやお菓子、フルーツは格別に美味しく感じました！
船がすごいスピードで海をかけぬけたり
船が回ったり！すごくスリリングで終始楽しく過ごせました。
ガイドさんもすごく親切な方で日本人の私達にも丁寧にジェスチャーも加えて分かり易いように教えてくれました！
みなほ
体験してみて、初めはスピードが早くて怖かったけどガイドさんがおもしろくてとてもいい経験になりました。シュノーケリングに行く途中には、イルカにたくさん会えたので感動しました。間近でジャンプをしたところも見えました。シュノーケリングもサンゴ礁や魚の群れがたくさん見れてよかったです。お昼ご飯も充実していて、ガイドさんが目の前でパイナップルやオレンジを切ってくれました。帰りには色々な地層の見える土地の近くに行き、説明してもらいました。日本ではあまりできない経験が出来てとても満足しています

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

I felt healed. 癒されました

Reviewed by: なおみん

The guide's horse walked in front and behind us, and we rode in almost a straight line. We were the only Japanese participants. I couldn't catch all the English explanations, but it was fine because they were accompanied by gestures. The sound of the hooves, the babbling of the river, and the sound of the wind were very soothing. It was also fun to see the horses eating grass by the roadside and drinking water from the river. I would love to participate again.

前後にガイドさんの馬が歩き、その間をほぼ一列で乗馬します。日本人は私達だけでした。英語の説明は全て聞き取れたわけではありませんが、ジェスチャー付きで説明してくれるので大丈夫です。蹄の音と川のせせらぎ、風の音に、とても癒されました。馬が道端の草を食べたり川の水を飲んだり、道草するのも、楽しかったです。また参加したいです。

A manta ray right in front of me. 目の前にマンタ

Reviewed by: りんりん

I was surprised to see manta rays swimming so close. They approached with such force, it was truly impressive. I even touched them a few times.

Also, the banana boat ride to the manta ray spot was a lot of fun, and the sunset viewed from the boat was incredibly beautiful, so there were other enjoyable experiences besides just the mantas.

I had a really great time. Thank you very much.

あんなに近くにマンタが泳いでいるのでびっくりしました。
すごい勢いでマンタが近づいてくいてくるので大迫力です。
何度か触れてしまったくらいでした。

また、マンタのスポットに行くまでのバナナボート気分や、
船から眺めた夕陽もすごく綺麗だったので、
マンタだけじゃない楽しみもありました。

本当に楽しかったです。

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

Beyond expectations, the scenery is breathtaking!!! 期待以上の絶景！！！

Reviewed by: りんりん

The sunset and starry sky at Mauna Kea were truly moving.

After acclimatizing my body by having an early dinner at the visitor center to prevent altitude sickness, I headed to the summit of Mauna Kea.

After enjoying the sunset at the summit, we observed the starry sky around 4,000 meters. Through the telescope, the rings of Saturn were clearly visible, and the natural planetarium experience was fun, thanks to our guide's playful personality.

During the tour, the guide took photos for us, and the service to download them from the website was great. I was also delighted with the beautiful photos taken with the starry sky.

My main goal on the Big Island was to "see the stars at Mauna Kea," and this tour exceeded my expectations. I was very satisfied with the experience. I'm really glad I chose this tour. Thank you for the wonderful time.

マウナケアでの夕陽と星空は本当に感動でした。

ビジターセンターで高山病予防のために、
早めの夕飯を食べながら体を慣らした後、
マウナケア山頂に向かいました。

山頂で夕陽を眺めた後、4000メートル付近で星空観測。
天体望遠鏡では土星の輪がくっきり見えたり、

ガイドさんが茶目っ気たっぷりで楽しかったです。

ツアーの最中にガイドさんが写真を撮ってくださって、
HPからDLできるサービスも良かったです。
星空と一緒に撮ってもらった写真も素敵で嬉しかったです。

今回、ハワイ島での私の一番の目的が、
「マウナケアで星空を見る！」でしたが、
期待以上のツアーで大満足です。
このツアーを選んで本当に良かったって思いました。
素敵な時間をありがとうございました。

The summit of Mauna Kea is tough but breathtaking. マウナケア山頂はきついが感動的です

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This tour had a full-size van with 15 people. We were seated at the very back, so we didn't benefit much from the air conditioning during the low-altitude drive.

We had dinner at the Onizuka Center (a bento box and miso soup), then changed into warm clothing and set off for the summit. The road was bumpy along the way, but we safely arrived at the top. (My wife experienced mild altitude sickness and received oxygen.)

At the summit, there are 13 observatories, including the Subaru Telescope. We enjoyed the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds and did some stargazing a little further down.

The sky was filled with stars and the Milky Way, and to the southwest, the red lava from Kilauea illuminated the clouds below. It was an incredibly moving experience.

今回のツアーはフルサイズのバンに満員の１５名でした。私たちは一番後ろの席で低地走行時はなかなかエアコンの恩恵に与れませんでした。
オニズカセンターでの夕食（お弁当＋味噌汁）、そして防寒具に着替えていざ山頂へ出発。
途中の道はガタガタで大変でしたが、無事山頂に到着。（家内は軽い高山病で酸素吸入をしてもらいました。）
山頂には、スバル天文台等１３基の天文台。
雲海に沈む夕日を堪能して、少し降りたところで星空観測をしました。
満点の星と天の川、南西の方角には、キラウエアの赤い溶岩が雲海を下から照らしていました。
何なら何まで、感動的な時間を過ごすことができました。

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＞

Awesome! 最高！

Reviewed by: Yukie

We participated as a family of three, including our 10-year-old child. Last year's manta night snorkeling was so great that we decided to join Aloha Kona Tours again this year.

I have participated in a wild dolphin tour on Oahu before, but I could only see the dolphins far away and had given up on the idea of seeing them up close. However, believing in Daisuke's words from last year, this year I was finally able to meet many dolphins right beside us!

They also supported our tired child, allowing us to enjoy the dolphins with peace of mind. I would love to repeat this experience. Daisuke's photo collection is also wonderful and healing. Please definitely hold an exhibition in Kansai as well.

10歳の子供を含め家族３人で参加しました。昨年のマンタナイトシュノーケルがとても良かったので、今年もAloha Kona Toursさんに参加しようと決めていました。
野生のイルカをみるツアーはオアフ島で参加したことがありますが、はるか彼方にイルカの姿が見える程度でこんなものかと諦めていたのですが、昨年のダイスケさんの言葉を信じ、今年は念願かなってすぐそばでたくさんのイルカに会うことができました！
泳ぎ疲れた子供のサポートもして頂いたので、安心してイルカを楽しむことができました。
またリピートしたいと思います。
ダイスケさんの写真集もとても素敵で癒されます。関西でもぜひ個展を開いてください。

It was extremely comfortable and attentive! 至れり尽くせりで快適でした！

Reviewed by: さやさや

The original starry skies and stunning sunsets of the Big Island of Hawaii are, of course, remarkable, but I was very grateful and impressed by how well the guide company prepared everything for us to fully enjoy them. They made sure we had proper warm clothing to avoid the cold, and the guides were very attentive to prevent altitude sickness. The meals included in the tour were also substantial, allowing us to enjoy the wonderful starry skies and the sunset from the summit without any worries. Additionally, it wasn't just about being taken to the locations; the detailed explanations were very interesting and easy to understand. I would love to request a guide again when I visit the Big Island.

ハワイ島のもともとも星空、夕焼けのすばらしさはもちろんですが、それを余すところなく楽しめるようにガイド会社の方々がご準備いただけているのがとてもありがたく、また印象に残りました。
寒くないように防寒具をしっかりご準備いただいていましたし、高山病にならないようにガイドさんがたくさん気遣ってくださいました。ツアーに付いていた食事なども充実しており、おかげさまでなんの心配もなく、すばらしい星空と山頂からの夕焼けを満喫することができました。
また、ただ連れて行っていただけるだけでなく、詳しい説明がとても面白く分かりやすかったです。
またハワイ島に行く際はガイドをお願いできればと思いました。

Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation

Best. Stargazing. Ever.

Reviewed by: Tomáš Vachuda

Both me and my friend are big fans of stargazing. Being from Europe, we're used to completely different night sky and it war really refreshing to see the other-side-of-the-world's sky as well. Also, because Mauna Kea Summit has one of the clearest sky in the world, it took the stargazing to whole another level. It was really amazing experience and worth every penny. Also the guides knew like.. everything about the stars, so it was pretty educational too. Oh and by the way - the sunset seen from above the clouds at the summit? Magnificent!

Kohala Coast Sunset Cocktail Cruise (from Hapuna)

A beautiful activity for a beautiful area

Reviewed by: Trevor Smith

My wife and I took this cruise. Were picked up and given warm welcome, then staff were lovely and very easy to talk to whilst constantly serving you. Open bar was generously doled out - you were actually encouraged to use it! Food also enough that we didn't have to eat again that evening. Really lovely evening cruising along the bay, and a lovely romantic setting to boot.
