I have brought my exchange students to the Big Island for 3 years and this was my first tour of Waipio. Kaleho our tour guy, being a life long local in the valley was filled with information about the history, biology and legends of this incredibly beautiful valley. So many stories and a safe comfortable tour. There is no glass in the windows in the 4 wheel drive passenger van so lots of airflow in the van. And he keeps a row empty between passengers. Everyone wears masks and sanitizes.
Also the store where you meet up has amazing art, books, music and incredible ice cream!

The ranch that this tour went through was absolutely breath taking and this experience surpassed any expectations I had. The views and the landscape were so amazing as well as the tour guide and other member on the ranch! The tour was so personable and he catered it so well for us. This was such an amazing adventure that everyone needs to experience!!!

I participated in a sunset and stargazing tour. I had always wanted to see the stars at Mauna Kea, and I was moved by the sky, which was even more beautiful than I had imagined. The service was also wonderful, as they stopped along the way for photo opportunities and took pictures with the guide's camera. I would love to join this tour again when I visit the Big Island.

We participated as a mother-daughter duo with no snorkeling experience. My mother is in her 60s. Initially, we joined with the mindset that just seeing dolphins from the boat would be enough, but once we set off, we were encouraged by our guide to go into the water. My mother, who can hardly swim, used a float, but the guide skillfully led us, and she was incredibly moved to see the dolphins from the best spot. I was impressed by the professionalism of the guide. Not only was the encounter rate with dolphins high, but the guide also kept track of the participants' names and how much they were enjoying themselves, even while wearing snorkeling gear. This was amidst many other tours. It was truly amazing. Although it was more active than other tours, the love for dolphins from our guide shone through. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who loves dolphins.
シュノーケリング経験のない母娘で参加しました。母は60代です。
当初は船の上からイルカを観れるだけでもという気持ちで参加しましたが、いざ出発するとガイドの方の勢いに後押しされ海の中へ。ろくに泳げない母は浮を借りながらですが、ガイドさんがしっかりと誘導してくれたので一番の特等席でイルカを観られたと大変感動していました。ガイドさんのプロの仕事はこういうものか。と感銘を受けました。イルカとの遭遇率のみならず、シュノーケリングを着けた上からでもツアー参加者の名前と楽しめているかをしっかりと把握してくれます。他ツアーが沢山入り混じる中でです。本当に凄い。他のツアーよりもアクティブでしたが、イルカを愛するガイドさんの愛が伝わってきました。イルカ好きには何度でもおすすめ出来ます。

The location of the office was difficult to find even with the navigation, but a juice shop along the way gave me detailed directions, so I was able to arrive. We descended a steep slope in a 4WD vehicle to the valley floor, rode friendly horses across the river in Waipi'o Valley, and passed through the forest. It was safe, and the saddle cushion was good, so my legs (groin) didn't hurt too much. However, the horses' speeds varied, and I couldn't keep up with the guide, so I missed out on some explanations in the second half, which was disappointing. I guess it's difficult to match the pace with horses...
事務所の場所がナビでも分かりにくかったですが 途中のジュース屋さんが詳しく教えてくれたので到着できました。急斜面を4駆で谷底に降りて フレンドリーな馬たちに乗ってワイピオ渓谷の川をわたったり、森の中を抜けたり、安全にでき鞍のクッションがいいのかそんなに足(股間)も痛くなかったです。ただ馬の速度がまちまちでガイドさんについていけず、後半は離れてしまって説明が聞き取れず残念。馬さんなので歩調を合わせるのは難しいのかな・・・

It was a tour affected by the weather, so I was worried until the day of the event, but I was able to enjoy the wonderful sunset at Mauna Kea, which I couldn't have reached on foot, as well as the starry sky and the Milky Way. With the guide's explanations, I was able to clearly identify the constellations, and I found the stories very interesting.
We participated as a family of four, and my daughters were so moved that they almost cried. The temperature at the summit was low, so I couldn't take photos with my own camera or smartphone after a certain point, but the guide assisted with photography, and I was able to download the photos taken by the guide later (they responded quickly to my request), leaving me with many wonderful memories. Thank you very much.

I saw a manta tour on a TV program about the Big Island of Hawaii. After seeing those impressive scenes, I thought I would definitely join a manta tour when I visited the Big Island. This time, I was greeted by a Japanese woman who provided clear guidance. The manta tour instructor was a handsome half-Japanese guy who spoke a mix of Gifu and Nagoya dialects. (He mentioned that his mother is from Nagoya and he lived in Japan until elementary school.) We took quite a boat ride from the port to the manta point, but we were able to enjoy a beautiful sunset along the way. Once we arrived at the point, we quickly put on our masks and snorkels and jumped into the sea. Holding onto a square rubber boat about the size of two tatami mats, I peered into the water and saw small fish gathering around the light. After waiting for a while, a manta appeared at the seabed about 10 meters deep. The manta swam into the light, allowing us to see it well. After that, one or two more mantas passed by. One manta even swam close to our boat, and I was moved by its impressive presence. Even in Hawaii, March can be a bit chilly, so a wetsuit was necessary.
以前TV番組でハワイ島のマンタツアーを見ました。その迫力あるシーンを見てハワイ島に行ったら絶対マンタツアーに参加しようと思っていました。今回は」出迎えは日本人の女性で分かりやすく案内してくれました。マンターツアーのインストラクターは岐阜弁と名古屋弁が混ざったイントネーションの日本語を話すハーフのイケメンでした。(お母さんが名古屋出身で本人は小学校まで日本に住んでいたとのこと)港からマンタポイントまで結構船に乗りましたが途中きれいなサンセットを堪能することができました。ポイントに着くとマスクとシュノーケルを着けて直ぐに海に飛び込みました。2畳ほどの大きさのある正方形のゴムボートに掴り、海中を覗くとライトの光に小魚の群れが集まってきました。しばらく待っていると水深10メートルくらいの海底にマンタが1枚現れました。ライトの光が当たる場所にマンタが入りよく見ることが出来ました。その後も1枚2枚とマンタが通り過ぎて行きました。その中で私たちのボートの近くまでマンタが泳いで来て、その迫力に感動しました。ハワイと言えども3月は少し寒いので、ウエットスーツは必要でした。
Thank you for joining us.
I see that intonation was a Nagoya and Gifu dialect.
Please come back to meet Manta and our cheerful staff again; we look forward to seeing you.

My husband and I participated with our 5-year-old child. It takes about 30 to 40 minutes to reach the snorkeling spot, but the waves are quite high, so I think it's essential for those who are prone to motion sickness to take anti-nausea medication. On the way to our destination, we even saw whales, which got our child very excited.
At first, our 5-year-old was scared of snorkeling, but there was a bodyboard-like device with a transparent section, and they enjoyed peeking through it. The sea was also very beautiful, and our family was extremely satisfied. This is definitely a tour we would like to participate in again.

In early March, we participated in a sunset cruise departing from the beach right in front of the Waikoloa Beach Marriott. We were the only Japanese guests, but the cruise included simple snacks and two drinks with alcohol.
The female captain announced that we might see dolphins and whales today, so everyone focused on searching for them while enjoying the scenery. Soon, one person spotted a sea turtle, and just as we were excited about that, the captain informed us that a pod of dolphins was nearby, prompting all the passengers to start watching. Then we spotted a whale! Everyone got really excited, sharing sightings of dolphins and whales, and the first half of the cruise was filled with excitement over dolphin and whale watching rather than just enjoying the views.
In the second half, we enjoyed the stunning Waikoloa sunset accompanied by slow Hawaiian music, making it a very satisfying sunset cruise.

すぐに一人がウミガメを発見し、喜んでいると今度はキャプテンからイルカの群れがすぐ近くにの見えるとのお知らせに乗客皆でウォッチング^_^
そして今度は鯨を発見!

We had a horseback riding experience in the morning as a family of three. It was everyone's first time, but we had a lot of fun. The blue sky and green scenery were amazing, and we spent about two hours on a spacious ranch. At times, we even trotted, which was thrilling, and my daughter enjoyed it as well. At higher altitudes, we entered the clouds, and the guide explained everything in clear English while being considerate of everyone's situation, which made us feel at ease. I recommend the 2.5-hour plan. It was a wonderful experience! I want to go again!

We met at the hotel parking lot entrance and from there, it was about 50 meters to the starting point of the canoe tour where we received instructions and did some stretching. We only took the minimum necessary items onto the canoe.
The waves were somewhat choppy, not completely calm, and we paddled along the left bank while passing the hotel’s first-floor restaurant, heading towards the next cove's cave. At the cave entrance, the waves were crashing back, and we maneuvered the canoe along the right bank, about 100 meters from the shoreline. Before snorkeling, we noticed that the water was somewhat cloudy and yellowish due to the rain the day before. While swimming, we spotted sea urchins and rays, and then there were dolphins making a commotion, with baby dolphins spinning and jumping around us. It was a lot of fun!

Five years ago, I used the shuttle service with my 10-year-old child and two others, and it was amazing! Two years ago, the tour was canceled due to rain during the shuttle service to the valley. This time, we requested to meet on-site, and after a 1.5-hour drive from Kailua Kona, we crossed off-road rivers while having conversations (in our hearts) with the wonderful horses, saw trumpet flowers, taro fields, and the mysterious valley. The horses were great; Waka would leave the line to eat grass, climb about 50 cm, and then eat more grass, trying to overtake the horse in front! I'm grateful for all of that Waka.

Honestly, I only saw the manta rays twice, and both times they were far away for just a moment. There were no close encounters where they were feeding right in front of me, as described in the tour details. It seems that the weather on the day can also affect this, and since manta rays are natural creatures, it's not guaranteed that you'll see them every time.
Since I didn't see them, I was really grateful for the policy that allows a free retry next time.
Although I didn't see the manta rays, I was lucky enough to spot dolphins from the boat. They jumped and swam close to us, which was really fortunate. I definitely want to try for the manta rays again next time.
正直、マンタは2回しか見れませんでした。しかも遠くで一瞬。ツアー詳細に書いてあるような、目の前で餌を食べる瞬間や、触れそうなくらいの
接近はありませんでした。当日の天候等も影響するみたいで、マンタも自然のものなのでなかなか毎回見れるとは限らない・・という事ですね。
見れなかったので次回は無料でリトライさせてもらえる制度があり、とても助かりました。
マンタは見れませんでしたが、たまたま船上からイルカを見る事ができました。飛び跳ねたり泳いで近づいてくれたり、それはとてもラッキーでした。
また次回マンタチャレンジしたいと思います。
Thank you very much.
It's really unfortunate that you couldn't see the manta rays very well.

The weather was perfect, and I was moved by all the scenery. I was told that if things went well, I might see a whale, but I didn't get my hopes up. However, whales appeared! They jumped several times, which was also moving. The passengers on the boat cheered loudly. And then, the sunset—absolutely stunning. I recorded videos of the whales and the sunset. Even after returning home, it was amazing!
One slight disappointment was that although they mentioned light snacks, there were only some snack foods in paper cups. The rest was just conversation... This was our fault, but I was disappointed that I couldn't understand the crew's fun talk. Because of these two points, I couldn't say it was "the best!" I apologize for that.
That said, it was a series of moving experiences. I am grateful.

The weather hadn't been very good until the day before, but we were blessed with great weather on the day itself, so I didn't experience any seasickness without taking any medication. We saw several whales in the distance, including their tails, backs, and spouts. Just when I thought that was all we would see, there was suddenly a series of breaches right in front of us! It was incredibly powerful, and all the passengers were very excited.
It was a satisfying whale watching experience.
前日まで天気があまり良くなかったのですが、
当日は天気に恵まれたので、薬など飲まなくても船酔いはなかったです。
くじらは、遠くで何頭も見れました。尾びれ、背中、潮吹きも。
こんなもんかな?って思っていたら、突然目の前での連続ブリーチング!!
すごい迫力で、乗客みんな大興奮でした。
満足できた、ホエールウオッチグでした。

I realized last year that I had never done a sunset cruise while in Hawaii on past trips. After booking one for the first time last year it will always be on the list of things to do, whales or not. It is so beautiful and peaceful.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, and clearly had the same passion for astronomy we did. He took fantastic romantic photos with the galaxy in the background, while explaining what it is we were looking at. It felt like being on another planet up on Mauna Kea! Would definitely recommend, it’s an unforgettable experience.

Dear Mayu,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour.
The view from the summit of Mauna Kea is truly magnificent. The stars visible also change with the seasons, so we sincerely hope you can visit the Big Island again next time. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
