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 am very satisfied! 大満足です!

Reviewed by: Ecoswiss

Even if you're not confident in your swimming skills, it's perfectly fine to join alone. The staff's attentiveness and care make you feel at ease. I believe I had an experience that was not just like the photos in the guidebook, but even better.

I swam alongside a pod of dolphins, followed the silhouette of a dolphin gracefully arching underwater, and spotted a baby dolphin clinging to its mother. The highlight was when the guide led us to a spot where a dolphin swam towards us, gliding right in front of us. For a moment, the dolphin looked at us, and we were all so excited! We confirmed with each other, "Did we just make eye contact?" At first, I hesitated to join alone because my family is prone to seasickness, but I'm really glad I participated.

泳ぎに自信がなくても、一人参加でも大丈夫。スタッフさんの目配り&気配りがあるので安心です。とにかくガイドブックの写真のような、というよりそれ以上の体験ができたと思います。
イルカの群れと並んで泳いだり、水中深く弧をえがくいるかのシルエットを追ったり、お母さんイルカのお腹にくっついて泳ぐ赤ちゃんイルカを見つけたり。中でもガイドさんが引っ張って誘導してくれた先に一匹のイルカがこちらに向かって泳いできて、目と鼻の先をスーッと横切って行った時、一瞬イルカちゃんがキョロっと私たちを見てくれたのには大興奮!「いま、目があったよね?」とお互い気のせいじゃない事を確認したのでした。最初、家族が船酔い体質のため一人で参加するか迷ったけど参加して本当によかったです。

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>

Both my stomach and heart are completely satisfied! 胃も心も大満足!

Reviewed by: sunchips

I participated with three friends. As others have mentioned, on the day we joined, we were the only Japanese participants, while the other attendees were about 16 people in total, including families, couples, and local friends. The captain was considerate, seating those who were prone to seasickness at the back of the boat.

I thought we would head straight to the snorkeling point, but instead, we enjoyed a tour of Kona from the sea and even went searching for a pod of dolphins, making the journey to the snorkeling spot enjoyable.

Once we arrived at the snorkeling point, we were free to explore at our own pace and had a great time interacting with the fish. The snorkeling gear provided was of good quality, and there were plenty of support items like kickboards and flotation devices.

After snorkeling, we could eat as much as we wanted on the boat, enjoying sandwiches, potato chips, cookies, fruits, juice, and water. I felt both my stomach and heart were full, and despite the boat speeding back, it was a challenge to stay awake!

友人3人で参加しました。みなさんも書かれていたように私たちが参加した日も日本人は私たちのみで、他の参加者は、家族連れやご夫婦、地元の友人同士など、総勢16名程度の出航でした。キャプテンは酔いやすい人をボートの後ろ側に座らせるなど、配慮もしてくれました。
シュノーケルポイントにすぐ向かうのかと思いきや、コナの街を海から紹介してくれたり、イルカの群れを探しに行くなど、シュノーケルポイントにつくまでも楽しく過ごすことができました。
ポイントについてからは、各自自由に行動でき、ゆっくりと思い思いに魚と戯れることができました。貸してくれたシュノーケルグッズもちゃんとしていて、ビート板や浮き棒などサポートグッズも豊富でした。
シュノーケル後は、船の上で、サンドウィッチやポテトチップス、クッキーやフルーツ、ジュースや水など、好きなだけ食べることができました。
胃も心も満たされて、帰りはボートが爆走しているにもかかわらず、寝落ちしないようにするのが大変でした。

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

It was over in the blink of an eye. あっという間でした

Reviewed by: may061

I've been horseback riding many times, but I usually get bored on monotonous courses. However, this time I finished without even looking at the clock. The instructor made me laugh with his broken Japanese from check-in, and he repeatedly gave me tips on how to ride, which was a unique experience. The smell of sweat from the coat and helmet, as well as the mold on the coat, were a bit off-putting, but I highly recommend this course that crosses the river multiple times.

乗馬は何回もしていますが、単調なコースだとあきてしまうんですが今回は時計を見ることも無く終わりました。インストラクターはチェックインから片言の日本語で笑わせてくれたし、途中も何度も乗り方を注意してくれたりで他では無い感じです。コートとヘルメットの汗
臭さとコートのカビは うーん でしたが、川を何回もわたるこのコースはお薦めです。

  • 川幅の広いところは併走になったり馬次第。

  • 基本は一列ですが・・・。

  • こんな景色が見れます。

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>

The lava cave was disappointing. 溶岩洞窟は期待外れ

Reviewed by: あんな

I thought there would be some Japanese people, but everyone except us was from an English-speaking country. I could hardly understand the explanations. My companion had snorkeling experience, so we managed to get by with their help.

While rafting, we spotted a pod of dolphins that approached us at an incredible speed, and we were able to observe them several times.

The lava cave wasn't really much of a cave. It was just a part where the waves had worn away the rocks, so it was a bit disappointing.

Kealakekua Bay was very beautiful and a lot of fun.

少しは日本人がいるかと思いましたが、自分達以外は全員英語圏の方達でした。説明もほぼ分からず。連れがシュノーケル経験があったので、聞きながらやりました。
ラフティング中イルカの群れを見つけると、すごい勢いで接近してくれ、何度か群れを観察することができました。
溶岩洞窟は洞窟というほどのものではないです。ちょっと波で岩が削れた部分、ぐらいのものなので、期待外れでした。
ケアラケクア湾はとても綺麗でものすごく楽しかったです。

Reviewed by: Ldubiel

We spent a fabulous morning searching for the dolphins and getting in the water with them. We were fortunate that there were only 4 others on the boat with us. The crew was outstanding and made sure we got in the water and knew where the dolphins were. The captain was fantastic at finding the dolphins and positioning us in the best place possible to swim with the dolphins. The boat was clean and a joy to be on out in the ocean. The crew and captain were very attentive and engaging. Great trip. Highly recommend!!

I participated alone, but the guide, Mr. Konno, took great care of me, so I was able to have a wonderful time. The sunset was worth the money I paid to see it. The starry sky was also very beautiful, and I was able to see artificial satellites and shooting stars, along with explanations about the stars, making it a lovely day.
It's truly amazing that we can drive to an altitude of over 4,000 meters.

一人で参加しましたが、ガイドのコンノさんがとてもケアしてくれたので楽しく過ごすことができました。サンセットもお金を払ってみる価値がありました。星空もとてもきれいで人工衛星や流れ星もみることができ、星の説明もあり素敵な一日となりました。

Thank you very much for participating in the tour the other day.
We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the many stars.
On the Big Island, even a slight increase in elevation or just going to the opposite side of the island can change the scenery quite a bit, and I believe that the area around 4000 meters was a different world altogether.
If you have another opportunity, please consider using our tours again.

Hamakua ATV Ranch Ride

ATV Ride

Reviewed by: Jody

Excellent experience! Fun and memorable family activity for dad, college age son and even mom (beginner) to enjoy together. ATVs were easy to ride. Guy was our cool guide and quite knowledgeable since he lives on the ranch. It was fun being among the cattle, donkeys, and sheep. The views of the coast were awesome. We are from California and will definitely return to ride the ATVs when we vacation on the Big Island again. We drove from Kona and it took us 2 hours. After the ATV ride we drove 5 minutes to the Waipio Lookout where the view was spectacular!

Great adventure with a well organized, professional, informative crew! Originally booked a different tour for my boyfriend as a birthday present, but Veltra contacted me when that tour wasn't going to run and connected me with this outfit, especially since they were based right outside our hotel.

It was a dream-like time! 夢のような時間!

Reviewed by: hisa

The tour was the highlight of our 3-night stay on the Big Island of Hawaii!

Seeing the beautiful sky, ocean, and mountains from the boat offered a different perspective than from land, and it was so soothing. To top it off, we got to swim with dolphins...

It truly felt like a dream!

Both my husband and I were not confident swimmers, and it was our first time swimming in deep water, which made us a bit fearful. However, by the end of the tour, we enjoyed it so much that we wished we could keep swimming. If we have the chance to visit the Big Island again, we definitely want to participate again!

Daisuke, Captain, thank you again!

ハワイ島に3泊した中でも1番の思い出になったツアーでした!

とにかくキレイな空と海、山々を船の上から見ると、陸から見るのとまた違った表情が見えて、それだけでも癒されるのにイルカちゃんと一緒に泳げるなんて……

本当に夢のような時間でした!!

夫婦そろって泳ぎには自信がなく、足がつかない所で泳ぐのは初めてだったので恐怖感があったのですが、
ツアーが終わる頃には、ずっと泳いでたいと思えるほど楽しめました。
今度またハワイ島に行く機会があれば、絶対参加したいと思います!

ダイスケさん、キャプテン、またよろしくお願いします!

This was a great little kayak tour. The guides were absolutely awesome (don't remember their names). We were hoping to see a few more sea caves/lava tubes, and thought we might be able to go in them. We only got to take a look at one sea cave, and we just paddled up to it and looked. The snorkeling was good, and the cliff jump was awesome as well. Well worth the money!

I'm so glad I was able to participate in the long-awaited tour to the summit of Mauna Kea at 4,200 meters!

I was worried about the cold, but this tour provides warm clothing, hats, and gloves, so there were no problems at all!

The air is thin at the summit, which can be a bit uncomfortable and cold, but the breathtaking views make you forget all that! The stunning sunset will be etched in your memory!

After sunset, you can see an amazing starry sky. I saw the Milky Way and the Southern Cross so clearly for the first time!

The guide also provides detailed explanations about the stars, making it so enjoyable that you lose track of time.

With this tour, you can download photos taken by the guide from the website at any time. You can also view them, so you can share them with your friends anytime. I think it's a very generous service!

The guide was wonderful too! I definitely recommend participating in this tour! I don't think you'll regret it!

Playful cruise 遊べるクルーズ

Reviewed by: Suga

I participated in mid-June. The day before, I went to the office to confirm my reservation and check the parking lot for the departure location, but the road from the parking lot to the office was under repair and was in the water. When confirming my reservation at the office, I was informed about a change in the parking lot. Since the communication was in English, it might have been unclear regarding the changed parking lot. The cruise was comfortable. There were no other Japanese people, but everyone was friendly. Unfortunately, the snorkeling was disappointing due to the lack of fish, but there were fun activities like a slide to jump into the sea from the cruiser, which was enjoyable. The BBQ was delicious, and we were able to relax and take our time.

6月の中旬に参加しました。
前日、予約確認と出航場所の駐車場確認に事務所まで行くと、駐車場から事務までの道が修理で海の中。事務所で予約確認の際、駐車場の変更を言われました。英語でのやり取りなので電話で予約確認をしていたら、変更された駐車場がわかりづらかったかもしれません。クルーズは快適です。日本人は誰もいませんでしたが、皆、フレンドリーでした。シュノーケリングは残念ながら魚が少なかったので期待はずれでしたが、クルーザから海に飛び込む滑り台など、遊ぶ配慮
があり、面白かったです。BBQも美味しくゆっくり出来ました。

I highly recommend that you experience it! 是非体験される事をお勧めします!

Reviewed by: HIDE

I participated in this activity because I wanted to safely enjoy the unique marine activities that Hawaii Island has to offer. Although you need to get to the location, we arrived in about 40 minutes from Mauna Lani by rental car. It's easy to find, using the blue roof of the marina as a landmark. The reception is in English, but there were no issues, and we could relax while waiting for departure, greeted by the welcoming dog.

We were first given a sheet with important points and sightseeing tips in Japanese, which helped us understand the tour's content. Everyone else was from English-speaking countries, but we were able to bond with a few simple greetings. We sped across the ocean for about an hour to the snorkeling point. They say we were going about 40 kilometers per hour, but it felt like we were cruising at around 80 kilometers per hour, which was quite thrilling.

At the snorkeling point, the captain provided a detailed explanation on how to wear the mask and use the snorkel. My wife was a bit anxious about snorkeling in deep water, but wearing a life jacket and borrowing a floating board helped her feel safe and enjoy the experience. The snorkeling spot was filled with beautiful coral and tropical fish, and we never got tired of the view.

Onboard, we enjoyed light snacks, including fruits and sandwiches that the captain kindly prepared. On the way back, we enjoyed another refreshing cruise while exploring caves! After snorkeling, it's easy to get cold, so it's better to bring a large bath towel, and since the sun is intense, sunscreen is definitely necessary. I think it's a good idea to bring a camera as it won't get wet.

ハワイ島で安全に楽しめ、かつハワイ島ならではの海のアクティビティが経験したくてこちらのアクティビティに参加しました。こちらは現地まで行く必要がありますが私達はレンタカーでマウナラニから約40分で到着しました。マリーナの青い屋根を目印に簡単に到着する事が出来ます。受け付けは英語ですが特に問題はなく看板犬のお出迎えで癒されながら出発を待つ事が出来ます。最初に日本語の注意点と観光のポイントが書かれたシートを渡されツアーの内容を知る事ができます。私達以外は皆英語圏の人でしたが最初のカタコトの挨拶で打ち解ける事が出来ました。シュノーケリングポイントまで1時間くらい海原を大疾走します。時速40キロくらいらしいのですが体感的には80キロくらいは出ているような迫力のあるクルージングが楽しめます。シュノーケリングポイントではキャプテンからマスクの被り方やシュノーケルの使い方など丁寧にレクチャーがあります。深い海でのシュノーケルを妻が不安に思っていましたがライフジャケットを身に付けさらにフローティングボードも借りる事で安心して楽しめたようです。シュノーケリングポイントは珊瑚と熱帯魚が素晴らしく見飽きる事はありません。船上での軽食も和気あいあいとキャプテンが切ってくれるフルーツやサンドイッチを楽しむ事ができます。帰りは洞窟巡りをしながらまた爽快なクルージングを楽しむ事ができました!シュノーケリングの後は体が冷えやすいので大き目のバスタオルを用意して行った方が良いのと日差しが強烈なので日焼け止めは必ず必要です。カメラは濡れないので持って行った方が良いと思います。

This was a great tour. Our guides had a lot of knowledge and were great guides. They also took the time to help us both when getting on and off of the horses.

I had a great time. とても楽しかったです

Reviewed by: KOROKI

I was very satisfied to be able to see dolphins up close. I could tell that Daisuke, who guided us, truly cares about the dolphins. It was a precious experience to see the dolphins come up close to the surface of the water.

I was so excited that I couldn't take any photos at all, but I will keep the memories etched in my mind. When I visit Hawaii again, I definitely want to go see the dolphins again.

こんなにイルカを近くで見ることができて満足でした。
案内をしてくれたダイスケさんが本当にイルカを大事にいているのと話すことができるというのがわかりました。
イルカが水面ぎりぎりまで上がってきてくれたりして貴重な体験ができました。

興奮しすぎて写真を全然とれませんでしたが、記憶に焼き付けておきます。
またハワイ訪れた際はぜひまたイルカに会いに行きたいです。

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>

With the pirates 海賊と共に

Reviewed by: Nobu

I wasn't really sure about rafting, but it turned out to be so much fun! So, we signed up for it as a pair. When we arrived at the site, we were greeted by a bright and cheerful female crew member, and as we headed to the boat, a cool captain was waiting for us, which got me excited.

Rafting was more intense than I expected, and the rubber boat tilted at about a 45-degree angle, which honestly took me by surprise! We had two snorkeling sessions, and there were also sights like Captain Cook Point and dolphin watching. Throughout it all, the crew member was smiling, and it was a rich experience within a relaxed atmosphere. During snorkeling, I got a bit carried away and jumped into the sea, accidentally dropping the pipe to the seabed, but when I saw the captain dive in coolly saying, "Leave it to me," I couldn't help but think, "Captain Kenway!"

Since it was a tour from morning until early afternoon, by the time we returned to the port, one side of my thighs was sunburned. I should have sat on the other side too, haha. I recommend applying sunscreen properly or bringing a large towel with you.

The T-shirts the crew wore were really cool, so my only regret is that I didn't buy one on the way back.

ラフティングってあまりピンとこなかったんだけど、楽しいから!って事で2人で申し込んだ。現地に着くと底抜けに明るいクルーの女性の挨拶があって船に向かうと渋い船長が待っていてワクワクした。
ラフティングは思ったよりも過激で、ゴムボートが45度ぐらい傾いたので正直面食らった!
シュノーケルが2回、キャプテン・クックポイントやイルカに釣り見物なんかもあったけど終始クルーの女の子が笑っていて、ゆったりとした時間の中で内容の濃い物だった。シュノーケルの時、調子に乗って海に飛び込んでパイプを海底に落としちゃったんだけど、船長が「俺に任せろ。」ってかっこよく飛び込んでくれたのを見た時は思わず「ケンウェイ船長!」って思ったよ。
朝からお昼過ぎまでのツアーなので港に帰るころには太ももが片側だけ焼けてしまった。反対側にも座れば良かったw しっかり日焼け止めを塗るか大きめのタオルを持って行く事をお勧めします。
クルーが着ていたTシャツがかなりかっこよかったので、帰りに買ってこなかったのが唯一の後悔です。

I got to meet a dolphin! イルカに会えた!

Reviewed by: Chigusa

I had met dolphins in places like Ogasawara before, but the dolphins I met here were small and really cute! I had been really looking forward to rafting, and it was even more fun than I expected, with the boat tilting quite a bit! The captain and the female crew member were very friendly, which made it easy to relax. When we were heading to a point, my hat got blown away by the wind, but they laughed and quickly went back to get it.

We went to a snorkeling point, and they contacted a fishing boat that was trolling to show us the catch, and we got to see dolphins too. The experience was really rich and I was never bored. The second snorkeling point we went to was especially beautiful, warm, and relaxing, leaving a strong impression.

On the way back, we had another thrilling rafting experience, and Captain Cook also provided explanations, which was fun. The lunch, chips, and fruits we had on the boat were also delicious and felt very refreshing! I want to participate again!!

いままで小笠原とかでイルカに会えたけど、ここで会えたイルカさん達は小さかったからかわいかった!
前からラフティングに興味があってすっごく楽しみだったけど、予想以上に船が傾いたりしてすごく楽しかった! 船長さんと女性のクルーさんもすっごく気さくな感じでリラックスできた。ポイントに行く時に帽子を風で飛ばされちゃったんだけど、笑いながらガーって戻ってくれた。
シュノーケルのポイント行ったり、トローリングしてる釣り船に連絡してくれて釣り上げる所を見せてくれたり、イルカを見たり内容がすごく濃くて全然飽きなかった。特に2ヶ所目に行ったシュノーケルポイントがとっても綺麗で暖かくてのんびりできて印象的でした。
帰りはまたまたラフティングですっごくドキドキしたけどキャプテン・クックさんの説明なんかもしてくれて楽しかったです。
あと船の上で食べるランチやチップス、フルーツも開放感があってすごくおいしかった! また参加したいです!!

Thank you, Daisuke-san, our guide!
I heard that the dolphins were in a good mood on the day of our participation, and there were many dolphins that gathered at Daisuke-san's call! Just as Daisuke-san said, we were able to encounter them up close by simply waiting in their path instead of chasing them. Hearing their calls was incredibly soothing. It was moving.

The views of the Big Island and the ocean from the boat were also wonderful, making it a memorable tour.
When I come back to Hawaii, I would like to participate in the night manta tour.
Of course, I want to join the dolphin tour again too!

I truly appreciate both Daisuke-san and the captain.

ガ イドのダイスケさん、ありがとうございました!
参加日はイルカ達のご機嫌が良かったとのことですが、ダイスケさんの呼び掛けに集まってきたイルカ達が沢山!ダイスケさんの言う通り、イルカを追いかけずに、イルカ達の通り道で待ってるだけで近距離で出会うことが出来ました。鳴き声も聞けてとっても癒されました。感動です。

ボートから見るハワイ島や海の景色も素晴らしく、思い出に残るツアーでした。
また、ハワイに来たときは夜のマンタツアーに参加したいと思います。
もちろん、イルカツアーにも!

本当にダイスケさんもキャプテンにも感謝です。
