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＞

I was able to see dolphins. イルカを見れました。

Reviewed by: marimo

I was a bit anxious about the English tour since I hardly understand English, but the captain was kind, and I had a very enjoyable time. I couldn't understand more than 90% of what was being said, which was a bit lonely, but I participated knowing that would be the case, so it can't be helped. They provide a Japanese paper with the initial talking points, so it might be helpful to read it well at the beginning.

I got to see wild dolphins, snorkel in crystal-clear waters, and see lava caves. All of my wishes were fulfilled. Therefore, I am very satisfied. Thank you for the wonderful time.

英語がほぼ分からないので、英語ツアーに少し
不安は感じていたけど、キャプテンも優しく
とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
話してる内容は９０％以上わからなかったので
そこが寂しかったけど、わかっていて参加したから
しょうがないですね。

A dazzling starry sky show★ 満天の星空のショー★

Reviewed by: ハワイ大好き！

On April 2nd, I participated with my family of four. It was the perfect day for stargazing, being the third day after the full moon. The clear sky without any clouds added to the excitement when we got off the bus; it was an indescribable feeling.

As the stars seemed to be falling around us, we received thorough explanations. My son had just finished his junior high school entrance exams, so he had retained a lot of knowledge about astronomy, making it a wonderful experience to connect theoretical knowledge with reality. We even got a good look at the rarely visible Cancer constellation.

We confirmed Saturn through the telescope, but it appeared small; the one we saw at the planetarium in Tokyo was larger (perhaps due to the telescope's precision???).

The sunset at Mauna Kea before that was also stunning, with oranges reflected in the clouds and the indescribable colors of the sun's afterimage... everything was wonderful. Additionally, our guide, O, provided a wealth of knowledge backed by data, and his modest yet friendly demeanor made for a truly great tour.

With all these three elements combined, it became an unforgettable Mauna Kea tour for us.

One disappointing aspect was that we had to wait 20 minutes during the tour pickup. This was not the guide's fault, but rather due to some participants not keeping time. Since it was a group activity and we were participating online, unexpected delays can cause anxiety. I encourage those who will participate in the future to keep time so that everyone can enjoy the experience comfortably.

　4月2日に、家族4人で参加しました。
　満月から3日目に当たる日のため、星を見るには最高の日和でした。また、雲のない絶好の空も重なり、バスを降り立ったときの感動は言い表せないほどのものです。
　まるで星が降ってくるようななか、丁寧に解説をしていただきました。ちょうど息子が中学受験を終えたばかりでしたので、天体の知識はばっちり残っており、机上の理論と現実の目が重なり何よりの収穫だったと思います。
　あまり見えないかに座もしっかり確認。

望遠鏡では土星を確認しましたがちいさく、東京の科学館の星空観察会で見せてもらったものの方が大きかったです。（たぶん望遠鏡の精度が落ちる？？？）

　その前にあったマウナケアの夕日も雲に反射したオレンジや、太陽の残像のなんともいえない色・・・どれもすばらしい。
　また、ガイドのOさんの、データーに裏づけされた知識量と、控えめ且つほどよい親しみで本当によいツアーとなりました。

　以上3拍子そろい、私たちにとって忘れられないマウナケアツアーとなりました。
　
ひとつだけ残念なこと、ツアーのピックアップ時に20分待たされたことです。ガイドさんのせいではなく、参加者の中の時間を守らないということですが、団体行動であること、インターネットで参加をしているので、不測の事態には不安がつのるので、これから参加される方は、ぜひ時間を守ってみんなが気持ちよく過ごせるよう協力しましょう。

Captain Zodiac is the best! キャプテンゾディアック最高！

Reviewed by: ハワイ大好き

On April 1st, we participated as a family of four in the morning.

The weather was great, and the waves were calm, making it perfect for snorkeling. Since we stayed at the Waikoloa Marriott, we arrived at the meeting point, the Honokohau Harbor, in about 20 minutes. The check-in location was easy to find, and the process was smooth with the presentation of our virtual tickets.

Once we boarded the boat, we quickly spotted dolphins; a large pod of wild dolphins surrounded our boat. We were the only Japanese people there, but the American children were friendly, which created a great atmosphere. Everyone was friendly, and we had a fun cruise. The captain resembled Mariah Carey, and the boat moved at an incredible speed. We spotted a whale along the way, and it was thrilling to see it up close. The crew kindly searched for dolphins and whales, so we were never bored.

While snorkeling in the clear water, we saw many colorful tropical fish. This was my first time experiencing such beautiful water and snorkeling spots. There was plenty of time, and I highly recommend it.

We booked online and handled the arrangements ourselves, and everything went smoothly. The staff was quick to respond, and we were satisfied.

As others have mentioned, everything was in English, which was a bit disappointing. I understood the necessary information, but I couldn't catch the explanations about the sightseeing points, which was a shame. It’s a great tour, and I hope they can offer a tour for Japanese speakers in the future.

P.S. My two children (middle schoolers) are still saying they want to go again. I hope everyone enjoys it too!

　現地4月1日に朝に、家族4人で参加しました。

　お天気もよく、波も穏やかで絶好のシュノーケリング日和でした。ホテルはワイコロア・マリオットでしたので、集合場所のホノコウア桟橋まで20分ほどで到着しました。
　チェックイン場所もよくわかり、バーチャル券の提示で手続きもスムースでした。
　船に乗り込み、すぐイルかを発見、本当にたくさんの野生のイルカの群れが船を取り囲んでくれました。日本人はうちだけでしたが、アメリカ人の子供が人なっつこく雰囲気はよくなりました。皆さんフレンドリーで楽しくクルーズできます。船長さんはマライヤキャリー似のエンジェル。すごいスピードで進んでいきます。途中鯨を発見。すぐ近くで見ることができ感激。親切にイルカやくじらを探しながら進むので退屈しません。
　シュノーケルは透明な水の中、色とりどりの熱帯魚がたくさんいます。こんなにきれいな水や、シュノーケルポイントは初めてです。時間も十分ありお勧めです。

　今回インターネットで申し込み、自分たちで手続きしましたがうまく行きました。スタッフの対応も迅速で満足です。

　みなさんが書いているとおり、すべて英語なのでその点だけ残念。必要なことは理解できましたが、観光ポイントの説明が聞き取れず惜しいです。たいへんよいツアーなので、ぜひ日本人向けのツアーができること希望します。

　追伸・子供2人（中学生）はもう一度行きたいと今も行ってます。皆さんも楽しんでください。

I saw many comments about how wonderful the starry sky is, so I decided to participate and see it for myself. It was even more amazing than I expected, and I was truly moved. Above me was a sky full of stars, the Milky Way, and shooting stars, and I was able to see Saturn and the Pleiades through a telescope, which was breathtaking. The sunset from the summit was also fantastic. The sunrise I saw on Maui was also moving, so next time I definitely want to see it from the summit of Mauna Kea.

I would not recommend this activity unless you've already done most everything else on this island. Everyone we talked to after getting back was dis-appointed. It sure isn't what I thought. First the transportation isn't very convenient. Getting to and from the pick up points should be improved. Next on the way up the mountain we stopped at a gift/visitor shop. Thats where we had a cardboard box dinner in the van. Someone else said bring a sandwich. I also recomend that. Going on up the hill. The observatories we only got to see from the outside, and was just told about them. We did watch a nice sunset at 13,780 feet of elevation. It was a nice view although I like the sunsets over the beach better. After the sun went down we left and went down to about 7000 feet elevation and they set up 11inch Celestron telescopes. Nice telescopes, i have a friend who has one. We saw several stars and clusters ect. Beautiful clear sky. Chitchen-Itza ruins in Mexico was just a clear a

Hawaii Big Island Helicopter Tour – Volcanoes, Valleys & Waterfalls Flight

Reviewed by: William

To start off with when we were making reservations transportation aparently wasn't available. Don't let them tell you that. They have vans and make pick-ups from the hotel we stayed in. We took the big island spectacular 2 hour. It was nice. The volcano part wasn't what i thought. I expected to see flowing lava. All you see is the top crust of past lava flows. Even the volcano vent wasn't what I thought it would be. The VOG was so thick thast about all you could see. A little let down. Although the 2nd part was the tropical rain forest. We had a nice ride along the ocean front. Went up the valleys and saw more waterfalls than I could keep track of. Pilot even sighted some whales and circled for us. Wind turbulance in some of the valleys made me tighten my seat belt a bit. Later I learned the pilot is a retired coast guard pilot. Wish I knew that going in, I would have been a bit more relaxed.

This was my first relaxing trip to the Big Island of Hawaii, where I felt the power of nature and the universe throughout my body.

It was a lucky day with a crescent moon perfect for stargazing, and I was breathless at the changing reds of nature during the sunset, the sea of clouds, and the white rainbow... And then, as soon as I got off the bus, I was greeted by a sky full of stars... I couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow!!"

Thanks to my hat, gloves, and warm clothing, I was able to lie on the ground and was moved to spot shooting stars...

Adapting to the high altitude of 4,200 meters was no problem at all, thanks to Mr. Ochi's guidance...

I definitely think you should participate in the Mauna Kea sunset and stargazing tour. This tour allows you to observe the stars from a higher location than the Onizuka Center, so you can enjoy it without being with other tour guests, and you can clearly see the Milky Way, which I highly recommend.

Since we stayed at a B&B, we were supposed to be picked up at a designated supermarket, and after the tour, we were supposed to be the first ones dropped off. However, the guide mistakenly went to the hotel first, which delayed our return home by 30 minutes. I believe the other participants who were dropped off after us were delayed by over an hour.

We had been sightseeing around the island with a rental car before the tour, so I regretted not speaking up earlier when I noticed something was off. The tour itself was enjoyable, so it's unfortunate. The bento box with Japanese food and miso soup was delightful. It was also helpful that they provided pants for warmth, as we were the only ones with them. I'm glad I participated since you can't go to Mauna Kea on your own.

マウナケアのサンセットと星空ツアーには絶対に参加すべきだと思います。
こちらのツアーはオニヅカセンターよりも高い場所で星空を観察するので他のツアー客と一緒にならずに、ゆったりとでき、天の川もハッキリと見れてオススメです。
私達はＢ＆Ｂ宿泊だったので指定されたスーパーでピックアップしてもらい、ツアー後は最初に送ってもらえるはずだったのですが、ガイドさんが間違って先にホテルに行っていまい帰宅時間が３０分も遅くなりました。
私達の後に送ってもらう他の参加者さんは１時間以上も遅くなったと思います。
ツアー参加までにレンタカーで島内観光していたので途中でおかしいと思っていたので早めにアピールすべきだったと後悔･･･ツアー自体は楽しかったので残念です。
お弁当は和食にお味噌汁が嬉しかったです。
防寒着もズボンがあるのはこちらだけだったので助かりました。
マウナケアには個人では行けないので参加して良かったです。

This was my first time participating and I went alone. Before going, I was a bit anxious about attending by myself, but the guide, Mr. Yamamoto, was very entertaining, and the tour was fantastic! On the day of the tour, the rainbow was stunning, and since the stargazing was conducted at a location conveniently close to the summit, there were no clouds obscuring the stars at all. Mr. Yamamoto's knowledge about Hawaii is incredible! (By the way, he mentioned that people observing at the Onitsuka Center that day couldn't see well due to the clouds.) The sunset at the summit was different from other tours, as they provided us with warm clothing, gloves, and knit hats, which made me very satisfied. Next time, I definitely want to join this tour with friends and family.

初参加で一人参加でした。
行く前は1人で参加する事に少々不安でしたが、ガイドをしていただいた山本さんがとても面白く、ツアーは最高でした！
当日は虹が最高に見え天体観測もこちらのツアーだけは頂上に程よく近い場所で行った為に、雲で星が隠れるような事は一切無かったです。
しかし山本さんのハワイに関する知識はすごい！！

頂上でのサンセットは、他のツアーと違い、上下の防寒具や手袋・ニット帽まで貸し出ししていただいたので、大変満足です。

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＞

I was moved by the whales. クジラに感動しました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was looking for a tour to go snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay. I decided to join this tour, which seemed more active and enjoyable, as it offered rafting on a rubber boat and a high chance of encountering whales and dolphins!

There was one other Japanese couple (four of us in total), along with about ten other people. Just a few minutes after getting on the boat, we encountered a whale, which was a surprise since I was just hoping to catch a glimpse! After that, we were able to see the magnificent whales multiple times. There was even a moment when a whale appeared right in front of us, almost colliding with the boat, but that close encounter left a lasting impression and became the highlight of my trip.

As for snorkeling, I felt there were fewer colorful fish than I had imagined, but I was still satisfied just enjoying the atmosphere! On our way back, we also got to see dolphins jumping. The boat had a great sense of speed, making it a truly enjoyable time for active travelers. I think knowing English would enhance the experience even more.

On the day of the tour, there were some reservation mix-ups that caused inconvenience, but the staff handled everything with great care, and I am truly grateful to them. It was an incredibly satisfying tour! I highly recommend it to anyone going to the Big Island, and I hope to participate again someday with my children.

For those bringing a camera, I think it's best to be cautious (you might get splashed). I decided against bringing my DSLR and opted for a compact camera instead. However, there were people taking photos with DSLRs as well.

ケアラケクア湾でのシュノーケリングをしたくてツアーを探していました。

日本人は私達と同じ新婚カップルが１組（計4人）。他には10名程の方が一緒でした。ボートに乗って数分で、少しでも見えたらいいなーと思っていたクジラと遭遇！本当にビックリ。その後、何度も迂回しすばらしいクジラの姿を見ることができました。ボートにぶつかりそうなほど、目の前にクジラが現れるというハプニングもありましたが、この間近で見たクジラが目に焼きついていて、旅行中の一番の思い出になっています。

シュノーケリングは、想像よりもカラフルな魚は少なかったような気がしますが、雰囲気を楽しむだけでも充分満足！帰り際には、イルカが飛び跳ねる姿も見ることができました。とにかくボートはかなりのスピード感がありました。アクティブ派にとっては本当に気持ちの良い時間だと思います。英語が出来ると、より楽しめると思います。

当日は予約の手違い等で、大変ご迷惑をかけてしまいました。全て丁寧に対応してくださって、スタッフの方々には本当に感謝しています。本当に大満足のツアーでした！！ハワイ島へ行く方には是非お勧めしたいツアーです。そして、いつか子供を連れて参加したいと思いました。

Even someone like me, who isn't very good at English conversation, was able to enjoy it fully.

Towards the end, the sea breeze can feel quite cold, so it's a good idea to bring a jacket. I think couples should not be shy and dance together. On the first night after arriving in Hawaii, you might feel sleepy at first, but your energy will quickly rise, so I recommend seeing it in the first half.

We moved to the designated harbor by rental car. The location was easy to find, so we didn't get lost.
At the reception, we received a Japanese guide, and by reading through it, we understood the overall outline of the tour.
After that, we departed from the harbor. That day, besides the two of us Japanese, there were four American family members and two German couples, making a total of eight people.
We did a brief self-introduction when boarding (of course in English). The captain and another staff member spoke only English, so we couldn't catch most of the guide during the trip, but it wasn't a problem for participating. However, it was true that understanding English would make it more enjoyable, as others mentioned.
The small rubber boat runs at an incredible speed, so it shakes a lot. If you dislike this or get seasick, it would defeat the purpose of joining this tour. On the other hand, for those who enjoy this, the tour would be fantastic. We were in the latter group, so we had a great time.
Along the way, we were able to see many whales and dolphins, and snorkeling allowed us to see beautiful fish (though it was a bit cold…).
Overall, it was a wonderful tour for us. I highly recommend it to those who enjoy activities like the ones mentioned above.
Lastly, you can't go to the restroom during the tour, which lasts just over four hours, so I was a bit troubled by that…

レンタカーで指定されたハーバーまで移動。場所はわかりやすく迷うことはありませんでした。

乗船時に簡単な自己紹介（もちろん英語）をしました。船長ともう一人のスタッフは英語オンリーのため、途中のガイドはほとんど聞きとれませんでしたが、参加する上での問題はありませんでした。ただ、英語がわかるともっと楽しくなるという他の方のご意見はもっともでした。
小さなゴムボートは物凄いスピードで走りますので揺れも凄いです。これが嫌いだったり船酔いしてしまうとこのツアーに参加する意味がなくなります。逆にこれが好きな人にとってこのツアーは最高でしょう。我々は後者でしたのでとても楽しめました。
途中、多くの鯨やイルカも見ることができましたし、シュノーケリングは綺麗な魚たちを見ることもできました（ちょっと寒かったけど…）。
全体的に我々にとってはすばらしいツアーでした。上記のようなアクティビティーが好きな方にはぜひお勧めします。

If you're going to the Big Island, I definitely recommend visiting Mauna Kea. While Kilauea and the lava are impressive, the experience of watching the sunset and stargazing from the summit of Mauna Kea is truly moving. Seeing the sunset sink into the sea of clouds gives you chills. You can even see the shadow of the Earth. During stargazing, you can see an incredible number of stars like never before. They explain about artificial satellites, shooting stars, and your own constellations. If possible, it's good to check the moon phase before you go. It seems that a full moon can reduce visibility. You can find out the moon phase here: http://www.ne.jp/asahi/qpon/b/java103.htm. The bento from Masashi Nature School is just as good as other companies' bento, and they even include miso soup. Also, they are the only ones that provide warm clothing all the way down to pants. Other people looked cold. I definitely want to participate again next time.

I flew from Honolulu to Hilo early for trip which was scheduled for 8:30 AM. We were delayed starting by about one hour for other guests who took a later flight. My main reason for this tour was to see the volcano. Because of air quality, the observation area was closed. Because of cloud cover, we could not see the top of the volcano. We were able to visit the National Park Visitors Center which was worthwhile.

The tour guide was just fair. We visited several commercial sites.
He tried to make up for the closing of the observation area by stopping at other volcanoes in the park & a lava tube.

I wasn't confident in my English, but everyone was considerate and spoke in easy-to-understand English, and they provided a printed guide in Japanese, so I was able to participate without feeling anxious.

The journey to Kealakekua Bay took about four and a half hours, during which we searched for whales and dolphins while moving along in the rubber boat. We were able to see both at quite close distances, and we also observed other marine creatures like flying fish and crabs.

Upon arriving at the bay, we went snorkeling. We snorkeled in the truly beautiful sea for about 40 minutes. The water was quite deep, but it was so clear that we could see the bottom, which was breathtaking.

I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, but they lent me a kickboard, so I was able to swim comfortably. On the way back, we saw lava caves and the town of Kailua.

Others who participated with us also said, "This is the best tour I've ever been on."

期待以上のツアーで大満足でした。
ハワイ島へ来た際には、ぜひこのツアーへの参加をお勧めします。
１０人乗りのゴムボートでホノコハウハーバーを出発。参加者はフランス４人、カナダ４人、私達（日本）２人でした。英語に自身がなかったのですが、皆さん気を遣ってくれて、分かりやすい英語で話してくれたり、日本語のガイドをプリントして渡してくれたので、気負いすることなく参加できました。
ケアラケクア湾を目指す４時間半の旅なのですが、行きはクジラやイルカを探しながらゴムボートで進みます。かなり至近距離で両方見れたし、他にもトビウオやカニなど海の生き物を観察しながら進みました。
湾に到着すると、シュノーケリングです。４０分程度本当に綺麗な海をシュノーケルしました。かなり深い海でしたが、底まで見えるくらい綺麗で、感動しました。
泳ぎに自身がなかったのですが、ビート板を貸してくれたので安心して泳げました。
帰りは溶岩の洞窟や、カイルアの街を見ながら戻ってきました。
一緒に参加した他の方も、「今まで参加した中で、ベストツアーだ」と言っていました。

野生のイルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングツアー ＜朝食・昼食付き＞

I recommend it. おすすめです

Reviewed by: マスタン

Since we didn't have a rental car, we participated in this tour with transportation included. It took about 45 minutes to get from our hotel to the meeting point, and we were dropped off just before the port, so we needed to walk to the Body Glove boat. The crew was at the reception, and you can check in by saying your name. As mentioned in other posts, the crew does not understand Japanese at all. I also speak very little English, but they provide a Japanese sheet with important information and emergency signals, so it's okay if you don't understand the English explanations. Since I have poor eyesight, they lent me prescription snorkeling goggles. I didn't understand everything in English, but since I participated in January, it was whale watching season, not dolphin watching. It was a great deal because you could snorkel and see whales. Although the sea was calm, it was still open ocean, so those prone to seasickness should take precautions. They do provide emergency assistance, but I think you need to be capable of managing your own snorkeling. Regarding transportation, the pickup was over an hour after the cruise ended, so I think it's fine to explore the nearby shops. I believe this is an activity that offers a unique experience that can only be enjoyed on the Big Island.

当方レンタカーがなかった為送迎つきのこちらに参加いたしました。
滞在ホテルより集合場所までは４５分くらい、港の手前で下ろされるため、ボディーグローブ号まで歩いていく必要はあります。クルーが受付をしているので名前を言えばチェックインできます。投稿にあるとおりクルーに日本語はまったく通じません。当方も英語はほとんどしゃべれませんが、注意事項、危険時の合図などは日本語のシートを出してくれるので英語の説明がわからなくても大丈夫です。目が悪いのでめがねをかけていたら度つきの水中グラスも貸してくれました。また英語のためわからなかったのですが当方の参加した一月は鯨が来るシーズンのためイルカではなくホエールウオッチングでした。シュノーケリングもでき鯨も見れることでお得ではありました。穏やかとはいえ外洋なので波はあるので船酔いするかたは対策が必要です。また緊急時の対応はしてくれますが自己管理でシュノーケリングできる能力は必要とみます。送迎のほうですが迎えはクルージング終了後一時間以上もあったので周辺のお店を散策してもいいと思います。ビッグアイランドでしか味わえない体験ができるアクテビティだと思います。

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＞

I don't know... なんだかなぁ・・・

Reviewed by: hana

We participated as a family of four. I was shown a file with Japanese explanation materials for circulation, but it was quickly taken back for "safety reasons," so I could hardly read it. The entire explanation was in English and delivered very quickly, so I couldn't understand anything and just clung to the boat.

It was exciting when the dolphins came close or when we approached the lava cliffs, but other than that, it was boring. I found myself battling sleepiness while clinging to the boat.

For beginners, snorkeling might be fun. I had high expectations because there were many good reviews, but is this really worth the price? The cost performance leaves much to be desired.

家族4人で参加しました。
回覧用の日本語説明資料のファイルを見せてもらいましたが、「安全のため」と、
すぐに回収され、ほとんど読めず。全て英語の説明で、しかも早口なので、
全く理解できず、ただボートにしがみついていました。
イルカが寄って来た時や、溶岩の岸壁に近づいた時は盛り上がりますが、それ以外は退屈です。
ボートにしがみつきながら、睡魔と闘います。
シュノーケリングは、初心者の方は楽しいかも。
体験談によい情報ばかり載っていたので、期待していたのですが、これでこの金額？
コストパフォーマンスは、イマイチ感が拭えません。

Hawaii Island Traditional Luau & Hula Hawaiian Show ハワイ島　伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　

Reviewed by: あくび

We participated as a family this time. It was fun to feel like we were at an outdoor party. The show started with a traditional Hawaiian ceremony, and then the performance began on stage. Although we didn't have the best seats because a special group was celebrating a birthday, it was really nice to watch a traditional show in a tropical party atmosphere. Unfortunately, we had to wait in line to get drinks, which took some time, and the buffet-style meal had a set order for each table, making it difficult to eat, and there were few options, which was a bit disappointing for dinner. Next to us was a foreign family, but it seemed like they were seating Japanese guests close together. I think this dinner show is recommended for friends and families to enjoy the atmosphere and traditional performance while having fun together.

今回家族で参加しました。
野外パーティーに参加している雰囲気で楽しかったです。
ショーはハワイの伝統的な儀式から始まり、ステージでショーが始まりました。
誕生日を祝う特別なグループが参加していたため、ベストの席ではなかったけれど、
南国のパーティー気分の中で伝統的なショーを見るのはとてもよかったです。
残念ながら、飲み物をもらうのに並ばなくてはいけなくて、時間がかかったり、
ビュッフェスタイルの食事も、テーブルごとに順番があってなかなか食べられず、種類も少なく
ディナーとしては少々期待ハズレでした。
私たちの隣は、外国人ファミリーでしたが、日本人同士を近い席にしてくれている様子でした。
このディナーショーは友人同士や家族でワイワイ楽しみながら雰囲気と伝統的なショーを楽しむのがお勧めだと思います。

It was amazing. 最高でした

Reviewed by: ゴン

I’m not very good at English, but that didn’t matter, I had a great time. There were 16 participants, and we were the only Japanese.

The guide explained things in simple English and gestures.

For lunch, we had very cold and delicious sandwiches on the boat.

We were able to see both dolphins and whales on the way. The dolphins came very close to the boat, and the whale splashed the water with its fin several times.

It was a lot of fun to see them circling around us. It’s great for little kids too~~ At the end, they let us drive the boat a little. Wiki wiki~~

Next time I go to the Big Island, I definitely want to join again.

英語が、ほとんど駄目な俺ですが、そんなことは関係なく楽しめました。参加者は１６人で、日本人は、自分達だけでした。
ガイドが、簡単な英語とジェスチャーで説明してくれます。

昼飯では、非常に冷えておいしいサンドイッチをボートの上で食べます。

イルカ、鯨、両方とも行きのボートで見れました。イルカは、ボートのすぐ近くまで来て、鯨は鰭で海を何度もたたいてくれました。

何度も、旋回してくれるのは非常に楽しめます。小さいお子さんもいいですよ~~最後のほうで、少しボートを運転させてくれます。ウィキウィキ~~

次回、ハワイ島に行ったらぜひまた参加したいです。

キャプテン・クック号　サンセット・ディナークルーズ ＜夕食・カクテル1杯付き／カイルアピア発＞

A beautiful sunset and soothing Hawaiian music. すてきな夕日と心地よいハワイアンミュージック

Reviewed by: ウクレレじじい

The staff provided a detailed explanation of the history of Hawaii Island in English, which was a great opportunity for my wife, who is currently learning English, to hear native speech. However, I was disappointed that I could hardly understand it. The Hawaiian cocktail "Mai Tai" served on board was fruity and had a pleasant taste.

I was very satisfied to be able to listen to live performances by musicians after purchasing a ukulele, as I had become fascinated with it. The pleasant breeze matched perfectly with the Hawaiian atmosphere.

The dinner included many local Hawaiian dishes and was delicious, but I felt that the variety was limited for the price. As the sun sets, the temperature drops significantly, so I recommend bringing a long-sleeved shirt.

　スタッフが英語でハワイ島の歴史を詳しく説明してくれ、英語学習中の家内にとっては、ネイティブの英語を聞く良い機会でした。しかし、私はほとんど聞き取れず残念でした。船内で振る舞われるハワイアンカクテル「マイタイ」は、フルーティで口当たりが良かったです。　
　私は、ウクレレに夢中でハワイのウクレレを購入してからツアーに参加しましたが、ミュージシャンの生の演奏を聴くことができて、とても満足でした。心地よい風にハワイアンがぴったりあっていました。
　ディナーの料理はハワイの郷土料理なども多くておいしかったのですが、値段の割には品数が少なかったと感じました。
　日が沈む頃になると随分気温が下がります。長袖を持って行かれることをお勧めします。
