野生のマンタ シュノーケリングツアー 少人数制ならではのアットホームな雰囲気で楽しめる<軽食・飲み物付き/日本語スタッフ乗船日あり>

I had a wonderful experience. 素敵な体験が出来ました

Reviewed by: かわゆか

While waiting for the manta rays to arrive, we watched the sunset offshore from the airport. For those who get seasick, this might be a bit of a challenge. Once we got into the water, the manta rays gracefully swam right beneath us. We were able to see many of them.

空港沖合で夕陽を見ながら、マンタが来るのを待ちます。
船酔いする人は、ここが少し我慢のところかな。
海に入ればマンタが、優雅に私たちの真下を泳いで通過してくれます。
何枚も見れました。

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>

It was amazing! 最高でした!

Reviewed by: 米軍ドライバー

This is a tour that starts at sunset. The sunset is incredibly beautiful!

We were firmly reminded not to touch the manta rays, and after receiving some additional explanations, we dove into the sea. For the first few minutes, we couldn't see anything, and I thought maybe today would be a bust, but suddenly one appeared right in front of me. They circled around multiple times, and not just once, but several times, two of them came in a line. Although we were told not to touch them, my husband ended up getting touched by a manta ray, and we were both so excited. Our Japanese guide, Tamae, was very kind and helpful.

Since we were in the water for a long time, our bodies got cold. Renting a wetsuit was a good decision, but we didn't take it off when we returned to the boat, and we ended up freezing. It would have been better to take off the suit and wrap ourselves in towels once we got out. The hot chocolate they handed out was soothing for our chilled bodies.

I thought we would have to pay for the photos the guide was taking, but to my pleasant surprise, they sent the data directly to our phones right away.

If you rent a car, the meeting location is easy to find, so you won't have any trouble. Above all, the experience made the tour price feel very reasonable. If you come to the Big Island, you should definitely try this!

サンセットから始まるツアーです。夕日はすごい綺麗です!
マンタには絶対触れない‼️事を念を押され、その他説明を受けて海へダイブ、最初の数分は見られなくて、今日はハズレなのかなぁ〜なんて思ったらいきなり目の前に現れる。何回も旋回して目の前にも現れてくれるし、一回だけじゃなく何回も来てくれて2匹が列組んで来たり絶対に触れてはいけないと言われましたが、主人の身体にマンタの方から触れて大興奮です。日本人ガイドのタマエさんがとても親切で助かりました。
海に入っている時間が長いので身体が冷えます。ウェットスーツをレンタルして良かったけど、船に戻っても脱がなかった私達は冷え切ってしまいました。上がったらスーツは脱いでタオルにくるまっていれば良かったです。冷えた身体に配られたホットチョコはしみました。
ガイドさんが撮影していたから有料で買わされるんだろうなぁ〜と思ってましたが、データを携帯にすぐに送ってくれて、嬉しい驚きでした。
レンタカー借りていれば現地集合も場所もわかりやすいので困りません。
何よりツアー代金を安価に思わせる内容だったです。是非ハワイ島に来たら体験して下さい‼️

Tips and suggestions

It's recommended to wear a swimsuit, and it's better to rent a wetsuit for $10 per person. If you don't see a manta ray, you can retry for free, so it's best to participate with some flexibility.

Tips and suggestions

水着は着用して参加、ウェットスーツはレンタルした方がよいです。1人10ドル
もし、マンタが見られなかった場合には無料でリトライ出来るそうなので、余裕を持って参加した方が良いです。

I experienced it on May 7, 2025.
1. I was very satisfied with the location, the pilot, and the staff. I highly recommend it. 100 points.

2. Since my seat was on the left side, all the highlights were on the right side of the journey. The aircraft blocked my view, and I couldn't take the photos I wanted, which was disappointing. I requested the pilot to make a turn, but it was only accommodated once. Minus 40 points.

It was my first time on a helicopter, and it was exciting. The pilot provided explanations in Japanese, which was helpful. Well, since it was volcanic activity, it couldn't be helped, but I didn't get to see the red lava of Kilauea. Also, it wasn't a landing tour to the waterfall, but I was hoping to see it, so I was a bit disappointed.

On the way to the manta snorkeling point, while riding the boat and enjoying the beautiful sunset, we were able to see two whales and many sharks. I heard that sharks can only be seen about twice a year.

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>

A luxurious experience 贅沢な体験

Reviewed by: りょん

This is a luxurious tour where you can enjoy whale watching, dolphin watching, sea turtle viewing, and snorkeling all on a cruise charter. We participated as a family of six across three generations, and with two staff members accompanying us, one of whom entered the water to provide guidance and support, my 78-year-old mother, who has paralysis on her right side, was truly grateful to be able to snorkel together. After snorkeling, there was a service of tropical fruits, juice, and snacks, which I believe offers great value for the price. I especially recommend private charters for families with small children or elderly individuals.

クルーザーチャーターで、ホエールウオッチングも、イルカウオッチングも、ウミガメかざしも楽しめ、スノーケルも楽しめる贅沢なツアーです。
三世代家族6人で参加しましたが、スタッフが2人付いてくれ、1人が一緒に海に入って指導やサポートをしてくれるので、78歳で右半身に麻痺が残る母も、一緒にスノーケルできたのが本当にありがたかったです。
スノーケル後にはトロピカルフルーツやジュース、スナックのサービスもあり、お値段以上の価値があると思います。

Hold on!

Reviewed by: Joey and crew

No time to relax on this excursion. We flew to Captain Cook on a zodiac boat with little room to sit or move about. The snorkeling was OK and the guides were helpful. Everything felt rushed from the get go. This trip sure gave us a lot of chuckles when rehashing our day.

野生のイルカウォッチング&ダブルシュノーケリングクルーズ byイルカ大学<ランチ付き/英語ガイド(日本語スタッフ乗船日あり)>

It was disappointing. 期待はずれでした

Reviewed by: シュノーケル大好き

I couldn't see any dolphins, whales, or turtles, not even a shadow or a hint of their presence, and I felt no motivation to search for them. The first snorkeling spot had hardly any fish, yet we were made to swim there for a long time. The second snorkeling spot was really great, but I got cold and tired from the first spot, so I ended up spending less time at the second one, which was disappointing. The hot dog for lunch had a sickly red sausage that was surprisingly bad, and I couldn't eat it. It was the worst hot dog I've ever had; I always thought you couldn't make a hot dog taste bad no matter how you prepared it, so I was shocked. There were no pineapples. The boat was simpler than I expected and rocked a lot, making it uncomfortable to ride. I thought the quality for this price was terrible.

イルカもクジラもカメも影も形もみえず、気配さえ感じられず、なんとか探そうという気概も感じられず。一回目のシュノーケルスポットはたいして魚もいないのに長時間泳がされて、2回目のシュノーケルスポットはとてもよかったのに、一回目のシュノーケルスポットで冷えて疲れて2回目の方が短時間になってしまい物足りなかった。ランチのホットドッグが気持ち悪い赤い色のソーセージで、びっくりするほどまずく、食べられなかった。こんなにまずいホットドックはうまれて初めて、ホットドックなんてどう作ってもまずくはならないと思っていたので衝撃だった。パイナップルはなかった。船も思っていたより簡易的で揺れて乗り心地が悪かった。この値段でこの内容はひどすぎると思いました。

Dear Snorkeling Lover,

Thank you very much for participating in the Dolphin Watching & Double Snorkel tour on the Big Island the other day. We sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations despite your visit.

We have communicated your feedback to the local crew and confirmed the situation on the day of the tour. Regarding the dolphin encounters, unfortunately, there were no dolphins spotted in the bay preferred by them near the harbor, so we moved to the first snorkeling point. Since there were no sightings reported by other tour boats afterward, we proceeded to the next point. While the Big Island is rich in wildlife, we hope you understand that there are times when encounters may not occur.

As for the snorkeling points, we selected locations considering the sea conditions and weather on the day to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, but we regret that we could not meet your expectations. Additionally, the hot dogs provided for lunch are a local favorite made with paprika coloring, prepared as a Hawaiian local food. Unfortunately, we were unable to provide pineapple as it was sold out that day. We apologize for the crew not being able to adequately explain and apologize regarding lunch during the tour. We believe that if we could have communicated more information during the tour, you would have enjoyed it more.

We apologize again for not being able to alleviate your concerns due to the absence of a Japanese-speaking crew member. If you participate again in the future, please feel free to request Japanese support, and we will arrange for a Japanese crew member.

We will strive to provide a tour that meets your satisfaction once again. Once again, we apologize for not meeting your expectations this time.

シュノーケリング大好き様。 先日は、ハワイ島ドルフィンウォッチング&ダブルシュノーケルのツアーにご参加いただき、誠にありがとうございました。この度は、せっかくお越しいただいたにもかかわらず、ご期待に添えなかったことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。 いただいたご指摘を現地クルーに伝え、当日の状況を確認いたしました。まず、イルカの遭遇に関してですが、ハーバー近くのイルカの好む湾において、当日はイルカが見られず、最初のシュノーケルポイントに移動いたしました。その後も他のツアーボートからの目撃情報がなかったため、次のポイントに移動いたしました。ハワイ島は野生生物が豊富ですが、出会えない場合があることをご理解いただければ幸いです。 シュノーケルポイントについては、当日の海況や天候を考慮し、安全に楽しんでいただける場所を選びましたが、期待に添えなかったことを残念に思います。また、ランチで提供したホットドッグはパプリカの色素を使った地元の人気商品で、ハワイのローカルフードとしてご用意しております。 パイナップルについては、当日売り切れのためご用意できなかったとの事でした。ランチに関してツアー中にクルーがしっかりとご説明とお詫びができず、申し訳ございませんでした。お客様にツアー中に情報をお伝えできれば、より楽しんでいただけたのではと考えております。日本語を話せるクルーが不在であったため、ご不安を解消することができなかったことを重ねてお詫びします。 次回ご参加いただける際には、日本語対応のリクエストをいただければ、日本人クルーの調整を行いますので、ぜひお気軽にお知らせください。お客様に再度ご満足いただけるツアーを提供できるよう、努めてまいります。 改めて、この度はご期待に添えなかったことをお詫び申し上げます。
