4.5-Hour Deluxe Kona Snorkel Tour & Dolphin Watch with Lunch - Body Glove Cruise

Great time!

Reviewed by: Kim A

We had such a great time! The crew was so nice. We had a great snorkel day, saw lots of fish. The water activities were a great bonus. The slide and platform were fun too! We went as a couple but great for families/children also. Had pastries and yogurt for breakfast, burgers for lunch, and cash bar open the entire time. I do wish for the price at least 1 drink could be included, but it was still a great time. We even saw some dolphins following our boat shortly before docking at the end

The first night on the Big Island of Hawaii. ハワイ島初めての夜

Reviewed by: ＭＫ姉妹

I chose this show with my sister because we wanted to see something representative of Hawaii. We were surprised by the large number of participants and were guided by the staff, who were very accommodating. The wind was strong, which was surprising, but I felt it was a good choice to participate in such a vibrant show. I created wonderful memories. The drinks, food, and welcoming leis were lovely.

ハワイらしいショーが見たいと、妹と選んだショーでした。すごく沢山の参加者に驚きながらスタッフさんに案内され、その時の対応がとても良かった。風が強くてビックリでしたが　華やかなショーに参加できて、選んで良かったと思いました。素敵な思い出が出来ました。飲み物、食事、お出迎えのレイ素敵でした。

I was not sure what to expect but I was very pleased with this experience. The crew was very pleasant, patient and knowledgable. They were very patient with some older guests and made sure they were safe and comfortable.
We ended up meeting several other boats so we had a lot of plankton for the Manta. Those beautiful fish did not disappoint! Although touching the manta is prohibited, they come close enough to touch! Bring your underwater camera for some great pictures and video memories!

ハワイ島　乗馬ツアー　コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬！ ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

A must-do when you visit the Big Island! A wonderful experience. ハワイ島に来たらするべき！素晴らしい体験

Reviewed by: れな

I participated in a 2.5-hour tour in the morning session. There were 12 participants from various countries, and we were the only Japanese attendees. The guides were two women.

I was anxious because I hardly speak English, but the guide, Jackie, was kind and spoke slowly using gestures, occasionally mixing in some Japanese to check on us. There was also a Japanese version of the consent form.

Based on our riding experience, we were able to choose a horse that suited us well. I rode Stormy, who has also been ridden by Jun Hasegawa! We started with a briefing, gave the horse some water, and then set off!

The horseback riding took place on a vast area where we walked and ran, and along the way, we saw Japanese wagyu and cedar trees, with the guide providing information. The weather and scenery were great, and it felt wonderful. Although the land was really expansive, the 2.5 hours flew by. If you're afraid of running, you can also go at a slow walk. There are spots along the way where you can take group photos with beautiful scenery.

When running, you kick the horse, and when stopping, you pull the reins. As long as you keep your heels down while riding, you should be fine.

It was truly a fulfilling 2.5 hours, an amazing experience that you can only have in a vast place like Hawaii Island. I definitely want to do it again.

I am grateful to the two guides, the other participants, and the horses. Thank you very much.

Additionally, the staff at Veltra were very courteous in handling time changes and schedule adjustments, which I appreciated.

午前の部の2.5時間のツアーに参加しました。
参加者は12名で多国籍で、日本人は私たちのみでした。ガイドさんは女性2名でした。

英語がほとんど話せないので不安でしたが、ガイドのジャッキーさんが親切で、ジェスチャーを使ってゆっくりと話してくれたり、時折日本語を混ぜて、気にかけてくださいました。同意書も日本語版がありました。

乗馬経験に合わせて、相性が良い馬を選んで貰えます。私は長谷川潤さんも乗ったことがある、ストーミーに乗りました！初めにレクチャーを受け、馬に水を飲ませて、出発です！

乗馬は、とても広大な土地で歩いたり、走ったり、途中和牛がいたり、杉の木があったりガイドもして貰えました。天気も景色も良くて、とても気持ちが良かったです。本当に広い土地でしたが、2.5時間があっという間でした。走るのが怖ければ、ゆっくり歩くこともできます。途中景色が良いスポットでグループ単位で写真撮影もして貰えます。

走らせる時は馬を蹴り、止まる時はロープを引っ張り、馬に乗っている時に踵を下にすることを気をつければ、ある程度大丈夫だと思います。

本当に充実した2.5時間で、ハワイ島のような広大な場所でしか体験できないような素晴らしい体験でした。また絶対にやりたいです。

ガイドのお二人と参加者の方とお馬に感謝です。ありがとうございました。

また、ベルトラの方が時間変更や日程調整などとても丁寧に対応してくださり、ありがたかったです。

Waipio Shuttle - An Exceptional Guided Sightseeing Tour of Waipio Valley

There and back again!

Reviewed by: Robert S.

It was almost magical, definitely a fun tour to a place you cannot go on your own. Waipoi valley is like going to a hidden paradise that only a few outsiders get to visit and I feel envigorated that I was one of them. I saw many people in regular vehicles at the view point over looking the valley but only residents and tour groups are allowed to enter the valley and if you request it you can get off the 4x4 van and walk to the beach and catch the next vehicle back for a small fee. Overall I very nice experience.

Show was outstanding and food was excellent!

Reviewed by: Ann

From the moment of arrival the staff was friendly and very attentive (we did pay for the VIP section and it was worth it for the service). The were almost too many food choices to choose from and it was all very delicious. The host was engaging and entertaining, the music wonderful, and all the dancers were great. We enjoyed that they were telling stories in their dance, not just there for show. Overall it was a wonderful experience, the only negative I have is location because you can't see the ocean from the luau venue and it does help the ambience we feel.

It was so nice we did not have to be there first to get a good seat. They were pre assigned and we were led to them by a very friendly staff member. We thought we would be the only ones there with a baby but there were other families with young children. Baby made to feel welcome. The food had a great variation with possible allergens noted at dish. Very thoughtful as my daughter can not eat dairy products while breast feeding her son. The maître D was lovely with a very soothing voice and good story and history teller. The dancers were very good and were smiling the whole time. It made for a happy time. Setting was beautiful. The fire dancer was very talented. I worried he would get burned, but he didn’t, thank goodness. All in all, the food, company of others beside us we got to meet, and the show was well worth the money spent. Thank-you

Reviewed by: けんしろう

I had my first horseback riding experience. Since all the explanations were in English and the other participants were also foreigners, I couldn't catch everything and felt a bit anxious, but I had a great time.

Riding the horse through the grasslands, running at times, and climbing hills was thrilling and very enjoyable. While walking beside the ranch and watching the cows and horses, I even spotted wild pigs in the distance. The weather was nice, and the scenery was beautiful. At the end, I was able to take pictures with the sea and mountains in the background, which made for great memories. The contrast between the sky and the grasslands was stunning (just be careful of sunburn!).

Thank you very much.

初めて乗馬体験をしました。
すべて英語での説明で、ほかに参加されていた方も外国の方のみでしたので、全部は聞き取れずちょっと不安もありましたが大変楽しむことができました。

馬に乗り草原を歩いたり、途中走らせたり、
坂道を登ったり、ハラハラしながらも大変楽しかったです。
牧場の横を歩き牛や馬を眺めていると、遠くには野生のブタも見えました。
天気が良かったこともあり、景色も良く最後、海側や山をバックに写真も撮っていただき良い記念になりました。空と草原の色のコントラストがとてもきれいで最高でした。（日焼け注意・・）

Our guide Gabe (I think that was his name - sorry if I’m mistaken!) was superb.

He picked us up near our condo and the van was very nice and spacious. We had 5 adults and were very comfortable.

The drive up he pointed out things of interest, answered any questions and was just overall very upbeat, fun and informative.

He was great up to this point but he crossed over to superb when my mom got altitude sickness. He was constantly checking on her, giving her sickness bags, anti-nausea meds and overall just very attentive.

He very professionally handled both her and the rest of the guests.

Will definitely book with this company and guide again.

Going through the trails and seeing the sites were completely beautiful. The private little waterfall/lagoon was also refreshing after being covered with the dust from the trail.

The one thing I would have liked is a bandana to cover the lower half of my face because the dust got all up in every crevice.

My husband and I booked this tour for our honeymoon on the island. It was truly amazing to see the many fish and mantas in their natural habitat! I was that person who forgot their motion sickness meds. If you get motion sick/sea sick definitely take them so you can enjoy the whole experience without feeling queasy. If you come from colder climates you may not need wet suits. My husband and I didnt get them as we come from a cold climate and did fine temperature wise. The captain and his crew, Diego, were very knowledgeable and friendly. They also helped out a bunch when I wasn't feeling well. Would recommend this tour to anyone!
