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>

A wonderful manta. 素敵なマンタ

Reviewed by: ともこ

The manta rays were swimming really close by, and it was wonderful. I know they don't eat people, but it felt a bit scary, like they could. Haha.

マンタが本当にスレスレの所で泳いでいて、素敵でした。
食べないのは分かっていますが、食べられそうな感じがしてちょっと怖かったですけど。笑。

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

My first experience climbing a mountain over 4200 meters! I was thrilled by the wonderful sunset and the starry sky! 4200メートル超えの山初体験! 素晴らしいサンセットと満天の星空に感激!

Reviewed by: ケイコママ

I had heard that the oxygen is thin, but I was surprised at how difficult it was to breathe at such a high altitude! I really felt the impact of being told repeatedly to "take deep breaths." Fortunately, we had good weather and it wasn't too cold. I was a bit worried because I had been lax with my cold weather gear, but the warm clothing I was lent was very light and kept me from feeling cold at all.

The sunset is beautiful no matter where you see it, but here at 4,200 meters! Watching the bright red sun setting above the sea of clouds was truly magnificent. Then, we descended to 3,400 meters for stargazing. I checked the moon phase, and it was the fifth day after the new moon, so we could see the Milky Way clearly in the star-filled sky. The explanations about the constellations were very thorough and easy to understand. I took a lot of photos. Thank you very much!

酸素が薄いとは言われてましたが こんなにも高所が息苦しくなるものか!と驚きでした。何度も繰り返し ”深呼吸して下さいね”と言われた事が身に染みました。お天気に恵まれた事とあまり寒くならなかったのが幸いでした。防寒対策が少しおろそかだったので心配してたのですがお貸し頂いた防寒着がとても軽くて暖かくて寒さを感じる事はありませんでした。夕日は何処でみても綺麗だなぁと思うのですが ここは4200メートル!そう雲海を下にして見る真っ赤に燃える太陽は本当に素晴らしかったです。そして高度3400メートルまで下りての星空観察。月齢を調べ、参加した日が新月から5日目?の三日月の夜だったので 満天の星空で天の川もくっきりと観られました。星座の説明なども とても丁寧で解りやすかったです。写真もいっぱい撮って頂きました。有難うございました。

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

The best sunset. 最高のサンセット

Reviewed by: ぱんだ

First of all, it started with a very friendly guide (Macchan) welcoming us with a warm "aloha." He was considerate of my elderly mother and helped her into the front seat, which was easier for her to get in and out of.

That day, the bus was almost full. The scenery gradually changed from lava to more greenery. As we ascended, we entered the clouds and experienced some light rain, which made the changing views even more exciting.

To acclimatize to the altitude, we had about an hour of lunch time at the Onizuka Center before heading to the summit of Mauna Kea. The sea of clouds, sunset, and starry sky were different from what I had seen online or in guidebooks.

The 360-degree view was breathtaking. We observed the stars under some of the world's renowned observatories, in temperatures that felt unlike Hawaii. I was a bit worried about altitude sickness, but it turned out to be no problem at all.

Macchan was knowledgeable about cameras and took some wonderful photos, so I can enjoy them even after returning home. It became a lovely memory.

先ずは、とっても気さくなガイドさん(まっちゃんさん)の〜aloha〜お迎えからはじまりました。高齢の母を気遣って下さり、乗り降りのしやすい助手席に乗せていただきました。
この日はほぼ満員。
溶岩から段々と緑が増えていきます。どんどん標高があがり、途中 雲の中に突入したり、パラパラと雨が降ったりで、目まぐるしく景色が変わると共に期待もどんどん膨らんでいきます。
体を高地に慣らすためにオニヅカセンターで1時間ほどお弁当タイムを経て、マウナケア山頂へ。
ネットや、ガイドブックなどで見たものとは違う、雲海や夕陽、星空でした。
360度素晴らしい景色。世界の名だたる天文台の下での星空観測。ハワイとは思えない気温。
少しだけ心配していた高山病もまったく問題ありませんでした。
まっちゃんさんがカメラに詳しくて、とてもステキな写真を撮ってくださったので、帰国後も写真見て楽しめます。
素敵な想い出になりました。

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

The reservation time was changed without permission... 予約時間を勝手に変更...

Reviewed by: ろんろん

I reserved the 9 AM session, and the confirmation email I received the day before also stated 9 AM. I left early to make sure I would arrive on time, but when I got there on the day, I found out that it had been changed to the 12:30 PM session without my knowledge. I was told that the 9 AM session was fully booked, so I had no choice but to kill time. The staff members were all very pleasant and apologized, but it seems best to directly confirm again before the day.

9時スタートの回を予約して、前日確認メールにも9時スタートとあったので
間に合うように早めに出たのに、当日行ったら12時半からの回に勝手に変更されていました。
9時からの回は一杯と断られ、仕方なく時間を潰すことになりました。
スタッフの方々は感じのよい方ばかりで、謝ってくれましたが
前日までに直接再確認したほうが良さそうです。

Revenge リベンジ

Reviewed by: じゅっち

I went to see the starry sky ten years ago, but at that time it was snowing, and I couldn't see the sunset or the stars at all. This time, I thought, and as soon as I decided to book a tour to the Big Island of Hawaii, I made a reservation right away. It was absolutely amazing! The sunset and the starry sky were breathtaking. I was at a loss for words when I saw the endless starry sky. I look forward to the next time!

10年前に星空を観に行きましたが、その時は吹雪いており全く夕焼けも星空も観れませんでした。今回は!と思い、ツアーをハワイ島に旅行に行く事を決定したすぐに予約させて頂きました。
もう最高です!夕焼けも星空も。見渡す限りの星空には言葉も出ませんでした。また次回もお願いします。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック&シュノーケルツアー 海中洞窟探検プランあり <早朝・午前/日本語ガイド>by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

My first sea kayaking! 初めてのシーカヤック!

Reviewed by: Kay

Paddling through the vast ocean in a sea kayak was a bit intimidating at first, but once I got on, the sea, the waves, and the refreshing breeze felt absolutely wonderful. The scenery on the Big Island of Hawaii is stunning, and as I moved forward in front of the gentle slopes of Mauna Loa, it became the best experience to float in the ocean with such magnificent nature before my eyes.

大海原をシーカヤックで進む・・というのはちょっと恐怖を覚えましたが、いざ乗ってみると海と波と気持ちよい風がとっても気持ちよかったです。ハワイ島は景色が最高で、マウナロアのなだらかな斜面を前にして前進していきます。あんな大きな自然を目の前に海に漂うのは最高の経験となります。

Deluxe Volcanoes National Park Experience, Black Sand Beach & Restaurant Dinner

Kailani tours deluxe Volcano and Stars

Reviewed by: Michelle Jarrett

Deluxe is the word! As if the natural awesomeness of a live volcano,a national park and stars was not enough this trip also includes a tasty picnic lunch and a 5 star dining experience for dinner. Add to this an extremely knowledgeable guide who serenades you with ukulele, tells amazing Hawaiian myths, provides astronomical binoculars to improve photographs taken on your phones and cameras of a live volcano at night and leads a sing-along on the way home.
This was a long day but easily the best tour our family has ever taken. Booking via Veltra tours was easy, even from overseas.

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>

Dolphin イルカ

Reviewed by: ako

My first snorkeling experience with dolphins was exhilarating. We traveled to the spot by boat, and the weather was perfect, making the journey even more enjoyable! Once we arrived, the guide observed the dolphins' movements and chose the best spot for us to dive in. Dolphins swam right in front of us, and as I looked around, I spotted a mother and baby dolphin below me. They even came close to me, which was incredibly exciting. The guide swam with the dolphins, and it was truly amazing. I definitely want to do this again when I visit the Big Island!

初のイルカとのシュノーケリング、ワクワクで参加。
ポイントまで、ボードで移動。天気にも恵まれて移動中も気分は最高‼️
ポイントについて、ガイドの方がイルカの動きを見て、ベストな所でダイブイン。目の前をイルカが通過したり、周りをキョロキョロしてると、自分の下の方に親子連れのイルカがいたり、自分の近くまで近寄ってきたりと大興奮です。ガイドの方は、イルカと一緒に泳いだりしていて、本当に凄かった。
またハワイ島に行ったらやりたいと思いました。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック&シュノーケルツアー 海中洞窟探検プランあり <早朝・午前/日本語ガイド>by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

Always carry sunscreen with you (laughs). 日焼け止めは常に持ち歩いて(笑)

Reviewed by: YOSHIKO

Everything was a first experience! My two daughters, one in third grade and the other over 20, teamed up while my husband and I paired up to challenge ourselves with kayaking. Although we didn't progress as smoothly as we hoped (it was quite physically demanding), it was very fun and interesting! The view of the land from the sea was also amazing! However, at the beginning, the staff reminded us to apply sunscreen properly, but I didn't have any with me, so I just applied it before leaving in the morning. By the evening, my shoulders, legs, and forehead were bright red and a bit painful. Make sure to carry sunscreen with you!

何もかもが初体験!小学3年と20歳を超えた娘2人がペアーを組んで、私と旦那が組んで それぞれカヤックに挑戦。思うように進まないものの、(結構体力は使いましが)とても楽しくおもしろかったです(笑)海から見る陸の景色も最高!ただ、始めにスタッフの人が 日焼け止めをしっかり塗って下さい!っと言っていたのですが、日焼け止めを持ち歩いてなかったので、朝出かける前に塗ったまま参加。夜には肩や足 おでこが真っ赤になって少し痛い思いをしました。日焼け止めは持ち歩いて(笑)

マウナケア山頂 サンセット&星空観測ツアー <午後/天体望遠鏡/夕食付/英語ガイド> by ハワイフォレスト&トレイル

Such a wonderful experience... こんなに素敵な体験は...

Reviewed by: クリスピー

I had been interested in the sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea, which I had seen on TV for a long time! Additionally, we got to do some stargazing, making it the best day ever! We participated as a couple on our honeymoon.

Initially, I was planning to sign up for a tour with a Japanese guide, but it was already fully booked, so I signed up for this tour instead. I was a bit worried since I don't speak much English, but despite the tour being almost 100% in English, thanks to the tour guide's consideration and a Japanese family who happened to join us, I was able to enjoy it very much!

I also observed other tours with Japanese guides and felt that the content and quality of this tour, along with the consideration for customers and the very free-flowing nature of the proceedings, made me truly glad that I participated in this tour.

The hot chocolate and brownies during stargazing were unforgettable. It was truly the best tour! Thank you very much!

以前からテレビで見て気になっていたマウナケア山頂でのサンセット!さらに天体観測もさせてもらえて最高の1日でした!
新婚旅行で夫婦で参加しました。
当初、日本語ガイドのツアーを申し込もうと思っていたところ、既に一杯だったためこちらのツアーに申し込みました。
英語がほぼ出来ないため、多少心配していましたが、ツアーの最中はほぼ100%英語だったにもかかわらず、ツアーガイドさんのお気遣いと、偶然一緒に参加した日本人の家族の方のおかげで、とても楽しむ事ができました!
他の日本語ガイドのツアーの方々もいらっしゃって様子を拝見致しましたが、ツアーの内容や質、お客様への配慮やとても自由な感じでの進行など、このツアーに参加出来てよかったと改めて感じています。
天体観測中のホットチョコレートとブラウニー、あのおいしさはわすれられません。

We advance through the canyon in formation. At first, I was nervous, but once we started walking, I could freely control my horse with the reins and my legs. Sometimes, the horse would eat grass on its own or relieve itself, which was amusing! Wild horses were also out for a stroll! It's all in English, but I managed just fine! I want to go again!

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Dinner - Hawaii Forest & Trail

What an amazing experience!!

Reviewed by: Karen from MO

This trip was the highlight of our trip to the Big Island. We had a great time and enjoyed the experience immensely. I was a little disappointed when they called me that morning and told us the road to the summit was closed and we might not be able to go to the top. Since we were on a limited time schedule we decided to go anyway. Nate was our guide and picked us up in Kona. On the ride to Mauna Kea, he explained about the different kinds of lava flows and some of the myths about Pele. When we got to the sheep station, Nate set up our meal for us and explained about life as a sheep rancher on the island. He promised that if we didn't get to go to the summit, he would make sure we at least saw the sunset from another spot. Supper was very good and it was fun getting to know the other tourists with us. After we ate, we got the good news that the road had opened and we were able to go to the top. What a gorgeous sight!! We saw the sun set on one side and turned around and saw the full moon coming up on the other. After watching the sunset, we went back down to visitor center and did some stargazing. Nate was very knowledgeable about the constellations. We were able to see the rings around Saturn and other constellations that night. The hot chocolate and warm brownies tasted good after being up on the summit where it was pretty chilly! I would definitely recommend this adventure for anyone visiting the Big Island, If we are fortunate enough to return, we will be doing this again!! Thank you Nate for a great evening.

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

Body Glove Tour

Reviewed by: Stephany

It was a great snorkeling experience. They did a great job all around. Seeing Dolphins is a guarantee. They hang out just off the coast on the way to and from the snorkeling location. The food they served was great and included (breakfast/lunch). They provide some drinks for free with the food. Any smoothies or alcoholic drinks you must pay for and there is a bar on the boat for that. They provide rash gaurds, towels, fins, snorkels, various floatation devices (noodles, boards, etc...). I did start feeling a little sea sick and missed out the last 15 min of water time before we headed back. So I would recommend taking some Dramamine if you get motion sickness.

Best Tour Guide EVER!

Reviewed by: AZSKY

This is an absolutely terrific tour and worth every penny. Our family has visited the Big Island many times but we learned so much from our energetic and knowledgable tour guide, Kevin. Absolutely adored the gorgeous candy facility stop on the way to the volcano. This store is beautiful and we ended up purchasing client gifts which were efficiently ordered and shipped back to the mainland. The dinner stop at the Kilauea Lodge was amazing. I ordered a Cosmopolitan cocktail which was presented just as chic and lovely as any found in a Five Star hotel bar. Good meal enjoyed in a cozy spot among new friends. Back to the night lava viewing at the volcano which was utterly amazing. The warm coats and flashlights provided by Veltra made the experience even more enjoyable.
Last but not least I must give kudlos to Kevin, our tour guide. This man has truly done his homework and is passionate about educating his guests about the gorgeous Island of Hawaii. Thank you, Kevin for making each and every one of us feel important.

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー  レジェンズ・オブ・ハワイ(ヒルトンワイコロアビレッジ)<日・火・金催行/ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題>

If you don't understand English... 英語がわからないと…

Reviewed by: はく☆

We used this for our honeymoon! We stayed at Hilton Waikoloa Village and also made reservations for a show.

We had booked premium seats, but after reading reviews, we learned that if you don't arrive early, you won't get good seats. So even though the meeting time was 5 PM, we arrived at 4:45 PM. We were guided to the very front of the long table, right in front of the stage. The seating is really based on the order of arrival. If you want to see up close, it's better to line up early!

They also guided us to the food quickly, so we were able to eat without waiting! However, since it was a buffet, if others who were not in the premium seats were still on their first round, it was hard to go back for seconds. So if you're a big eater, I think it's better to take two plates at once!

Drinks were ordered at the table, which was convenient! Most of the options were cocktails, and my husband only had Corona beer.

The narration for the show was all in English! If you don't understand English, you won't have any idea what they are talking about. It was really just for viewing. My husband didn't understand any English, so it felt like just watching the show for him.

ハネムーンで使用しました!ヒルトンワイコロアビレッジに宿泊し、ショーの予約もしました。
プレミアム席の予約をしていましたが、クチコミをみてその中で早めに行かないといい席にならないとのことだったので17時集合でしたが16:45には集合しました。長机の一番前、ステージ真ん前へ案内してもらいました。席の案内は本当に来た順です。真ん前でみたいのであれば早めに並んだ方がいいですよ!
料理も早めに案内してくれたので、待たず食べることができました!ただ、ビュッフェですが2回目を取りにいくには他の人がまだプレミアム席ではない人がまだ1回目だと全然取りにいけないので、ものすごく食べる方は2皿持っていった方がいいと思います!
ドリンクは席での注文なので楽でした!ほとんどカクテルばかりで旦那はコロナビールオンリーでした。

If there were no seasickness... 船酔いがなければ…

Reviewed by: はく☆

I used this for my honeymoon! Seeing the manta rays up close was truly moving! Personally, even though I took motion sickness medication, the time spent searching for manta rays at the snorkeling spot was long, and the strong winds and rough waves made me feel seasick... Even while watching the manta rays, the waves were rough and I got nauseous. It felt like I barely managed to take some photos.

For those who get motion sickness, it might be better to eat dinner after it's over. Also, I think it's good to take extra motion sickness medication...

ハネムーンで使用しました!マンタが本当に間近で!感動でした!
個人的には、酔い止めを飲んだのにシュノーケリング地点に到着してマンタを探している時間が長く、また風が強く波が激しかったので船酔いに…マンタを見ている最中も波が荒く酔ってしまって。やっとの思いで写真が撮れたって感じです。
乗り物酔いをする人は夕食は終わってから食べた方がいいかもです。そして、酔い止め多めが良いかと…思います。

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Haku,

Thank you for your suggestion that dinner is recommended during the tour. We appreciate you sharing the best shots of the manta rays that you worked hard to capture during the tour!

When participating in the manta experience, it might be better to have a light dinner. Also, it seems that taking motion sickness medication once the day before and again just before boarding is effective, so please give it a try when you join the tour.

Mahalo

Aloha はく様

夕食はツアーごがおすすめとのご意見ありがとうございます。
ツアー中、頑張って撮られたへマンタのベストショットをUPしていただいてありがとうございます!

マンタご参加の際は夕飯は控えめにしていただいた方が良いかと思います。
また、酔い止めは前日に一度乗る前にもう一度飲んでいただくと効果的のようですので、ツアーご参加の際はお試しください。

The break time at the Onizuka Center was just right, and we were able to spend more time at the summit than I expected, allowing us to see a beautiful sunset. My two daughters, who were with us, seemed to have no issues with altitude sickness, but my wife and I experienced slight dizziness and drowsiness after walking a bit. However, it wasn't a major problem at all.

The stargazing along the way wasn't as impressive since the moon was out, so I wouldn't say it was "the first time I've ever seen this!!", but the guide from another group (Mac-chan) provided excellent explanations, and we were able to see various constellations. Additionally, they took photos of us with the starry sky in the background using my camera, which made for a wonderful keepsake.

So far, everything was good. After the tour, I requested the download link for the photos taken by the guide, as indicated on the business card I received, but I haven't received any response at all. I've sent multiple messages, even changing the sending address, but still no reply. As a result, I can't download the photos we took, nor can I even view them.

This is quite disappointing.

ツアーは良かったです。定刻どおりホテルに迎えに来ていただいて、その後、マウナケア山頂に向かいました。オニズカセンターでの休憩時間も丁度よく、また、山頂での時間も思ったよりたくさん確保できて、きれいな夕陽を見ることができました。気になっていた高山病は、同行した娘二人は何の問題もなかったようですが、私や妻は少し歩いたりすると軽くめまいがしたり眠気が出たりしました。が、全然大きな問題ではなかったです。途中の星空観察は、月が出ていたので正直なところ「生まれて初めて見た!!」と言うほどではなかったですが、他グループのガイド(マッちゃん)の解説が素晴らしく、いろいろな星座を見ることができました。また、自分が持参したカメラで星空バックで撮影もしてくれて、大変良い記念になりました。
で、ですよ。ここまでは良いのです。
ツアーが終わった後、名刺をもらって書いてあるとおりガイドさんにとってもらった写真のダウンロード用PSWの連絡をお願いしたのですが、全然レスがありません。発信元のアドレスを変えたりして何度何度も送ったのですが、それでもレス無しなのです。ですので、とってもらった写真はダウンロードできないどころか、見ることもできません。
これはちょっと頂けないなあ。

Reserving with a higher budget was definitely the right choice! I was able to see a powerful show from the front row, which was fantastic. The staff were very friendly and even took videos on my phone, allowing me to create great memories. The meal was also very satisfying, leaving me completely full. 😊

予算を高い方で予約したのは大正解でした!
最前列で迫力のあるショーを見る事ができてとても良かったです。スタッフの方もとてもフレンドリーで携帯で動画を撮ってくださり良い思い出を残す事が出来ました。食事もお腹いっぱいになるほどで大満足でした(^^)v

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>

I was able to see a pod of dozens of dolphins! イルカの何十頭の群れが見れました!

Reviewed by: 船酔いさん

I was really able to swim with dolphins! On the day I participated, we encountered dolphins right after the boat left the port. I was surprised to see dolphins swimming in such a place! Under the guidance of Daisuke, who loves dolphins, we positioned the boat well and entered the water, but it was challenging to avoid splashing when entering. Timing for the dolphins to come was also tricky, so it seems important to keep your face in the water and look around while you're in the sea. There were two divers, but I think practicing to swim to some extent beforehand would allow you to swim more with the dolphins. The baby dolphins were jumping on the surface and were incredibly cute! Above all, when I heard the dolphins' voices underwater, it felt mystical. I can't guarantee it, but they really work hard to help you swim with the dolphins, so I believe it's definitely worth participating if you want to swim with them!

本当にイルカと泳ぐことができました!
今回参加した日は港から船が出たすぐの部分でイルカに会うことができました。こんなところで自然のイルカが泳いでるの!?とビックリしました。イルカ大好きダイスケさんの指示のもと船を良い部分に付けて海に降りるのですが、着水時に水しぶきが出ないようにしなければいけずそれが難しかったです。イルカが来るタイミングも難しいので海にいるときは常に顔を水につけてキョロキョロすることが大事みたいです。ダイバーさんは二人いましたがある程度泳げるように練習しておくとよりイルカと泳げると思います。イルカは赤ちゃんイルカがたくさん水面を跳ねててとても可愛かったです!何より海の中でイルカの声を聞けたときは神秘的なものを感じました。絶対とは言いませんがイルカと泳げるようかなり頑張ってくれるのでイルカと泳ぎたい方はぜひ参加する価値ありだと思います!

We were able to enjoy ourselves fully as adults because the staff also took care of the children and grandmother. I'm grateful to the wonderful staff. We had the chance to meet many dolphins and had enough time to swim, creating the best memories!

子供と祖母の面倒も見て頂けたので大人も存分に楽しめて、素敵なスタッフさん達に感謝です。

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>

Close encounter with a manta! マンタと接近!

Reviewed by: はるこ

First of all, it was fun heading out to sea while watching the sunset sink into the ocean! We stopped the boat and waited for it to get dark, and then it was time to go underwater! I was so happy when 2 to 3 large mantas came close to us. On the way there, there were a few people who got seasick, so motion sickness medication is a must. I forgot to bring my motion sickness medication for the return trip, so I ended up feeling nauseous on the way back. Also, it gets really cold on the return trip, so I think it's essential to have clothes that you can easily change into or warm clothing on the boat.

まず、海に沈む夕日を見ながら沖へ向かって行くのが楽しかったです!そして船を停めて暗くなるのを待ち、いざ水中へ!とても大きなマンタが2〜3枚来てくれてとっても近くまで来てくれてすごく嬉しかったです。行きの船では船酔いしている方が何名か居たので酔い止めは必須です。私は帰りの酔い止めを持参し忘れた為に帰りは気持ち悪くなってしまいました。そして帰りはすごく寒くなるので船の上で簡単に着替えられる様な服や防寒着は必須だと思いました。
