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>
Everyone should go and have fun together!
みんなでワイワイ行くべし!
Posted on: 2010/07/15

I went last week!

It was a tour that I was completely satisfied with. On the day we participated, my group was the only one made up of Japanese people. Most of the other guests were from the mainland United States. There were mostly couples, families, and groups participating.

We received safety instructions for snorkeling, but we were given a paper written in Japanese, so I think even those who are worried about the language can participate with peace of mind. Also, the staff and the surrounding guests all had a friendly atmosphere, so even if you don't speak English well, you can communicate with simple words and have a good time.

I think it's okay for those who are not confident in swimming to participate. On this tour, there were people enjoying themselves while floating on inflatable rings.

I recommend this tour for the morning since the waves are calmer then. Even in the morning tour, the waves do get a bit higher in the latter half.

It was a very enjoyable tour, but I got seasick on the way back. It takes nearly 30 minutes from the snorkeling point to the port, so you might feel nauseous. I recommend bringing motion sickness medication. Even if you don't have any, if you tell the staff, they will make ginger ale to help alleviate the nausea.

For snorkeling, I was lent a prescription snorkeling set. It's recommended for those who wear glasses.

Everyone was able to return to their childhood, jumping into the sea and enjoying snorkeling, having a great time. Other guests were also frolicking like children. I definitely recommend participating as a group and having fun together.

The water was clear down to the bottom, which was impressive. There were many sea urchins at the bottom, and I was able to see cute fish as well. The seawater was warm, which was also nice.

先週行ってきました!

すべてに大満足のツアーでした。
私たちが参加した日は私のグループのみが日本人でした。
他はアメリカ本土からのお客さんが多かったです。
カップルや家族連れ、グループでの参加がほとんどでした。

スノーケリングの注意などを受けますが、日本語で書かれた紙を渡されるので、言葉に心配な人でも安心して参加できると思います。
また、スタッフやまわりのお客さんもみんなフレンドリーな雰囲気だったので、英語が良くできなくても、簡単な言葉でコミュニケーションをとったり、楽しく過ごすことができました。

泳ぎに自信がない人も参加して大丈夫だと思います。
今回のツアーでも、浮き輪で揺られて楽しんでいる人もいました。

また、午前中のほうが波が静かなので、こちらのツアーをお勧めします。午前中のツアーでも後半では波が少し高くなってきます。

とても楽しいツアーでしたが、帰りの船で船酔いしてしまいました。スノーケリングのポイントから港まで30分近くかかるので、気持ち悪くなるかもしれません。
酔い止めを持っていくことをお勧めします。
もし、酔い止めをもっていなくとも、スタッフに伝えれば、酔い止めを緩和するジンジャーエールを作ってくれます。

スノーケリングでは、度付きのスノーケリングセットを貸してもらいました。めがねの人はお勧めです。

みんなが童心に帰って、海に飛び込んだり、スノーケリングを楽しんだり、楽しい時間をすごすことができました。
他のお客さんも子供のようにはしゃいでいました。
絶対、グループで参加してみんなでワイワイ過ごすことをオススメします。

海の中は底まで透き通っていて、感動的でした。
海の底にはウニがたくさんいて、かわいい魚たちも見ることができました。海水も暖かかったのもよかったです。

The clouds dyed in orange and the star-filled sky... for a moment, I almost forgot that I was on Earth. I was captivated by such a magnificent universe. Listening to the detailed explanations of the constellations and being able to see Saturn's rings through the telescope was truly moving! I was also impressed by the warm consideration of the staff. I highly recommend that anyone visiting the Big Island of Hawaii experience this.

Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation
Fantastic Tour
Posted on: 2010/07/10
SAR

Great transportation, very knowledgeable guides/drivers, wonderful "star gazing," well prepared food (too much for one person to eat at one meal!) with stainless steel table service, warm parkas and gloves provided. Recommend wearing jeans, sneakers and socks, and perhaps a light jacket to wear under the parka. Understand that it will be cold at these altitudes and be wary of altitude sickness if you are normally near sea level. Be well rested when you go and altitude shouldn't be a problem since a couple of rests (and restroom stops) as you ascend are provided. On the ride back after excellent stargazing and a hot drink and cookie, really nice and varied selections of music were played! I've never seen such wonderful sky views! Hope to come again and bring grandchildren!

The sunset was breathtaking.
感動の夕日★★
Posted on: 2010/07/09

I participated after being recommended by a friend. I was a bit hesitant because the price was high, but it was definitely the right decision!

I was moved by the scenery I had never seen before. The sun, radiating overwhelming light above the red-tinted clouds, was incredibly mystical. Also, the stargazing afterward was fortunate, as it seemed to be a clear night for viewing stars. I was able to see shooting stars, the Milky Way, and numerous constellations, making it feel just like a planetarium.

As for the climate, I had prepared hand warmers and a scarf thinking it would be colder, but it wasn't as chilly as I expected.

If I were to mention a downside, it might be unavoidable, but it seemed that the pickup was last, so my friend and I ended up sitting apart, and I had to sit alone for a long time during the journey. Since the scenery was so beautiful, I wish I could have enjoyed it with my friend while chatting...

友達に勧められて参加しました。
料金が高いのでちょっと迷っていたのですが、参加して正解!

見たことのない景色に感動しました。
赤く染まる雲の上に圧倒的な光を放つ太陽が、すごく神秘的でした。
また、そのあとのスターゲイジングも、運よくきれいに星が見える日だったようで、流れ星や天の川、数々の星座が見れて、まるでプラネタリウムのようでした。

気候は、もっと寒いかなとカイロやマフラーまで用意してたのですが、思ったより寒くなかったです。

難点をあげるとすれば、仕方ないのかもしれませんが、ピックアップが最後だったようで、友達と席が離れてしまい、長時間の移動を一人で座っていたことですね。
せっかくのきれいな景色だったので、友達とわいわいしながら観たかったな。。。

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's
Ocean Safari's Kayak
Posted on: 2010/07/08

We had a wonderful time on our Keauhou Sea Cave Kayak Adventure. Our main guide, Kevin, was wonderful. He was very concerned about our safety and enjoyment of the outing. We were able to kayak into a large sea cave before paddling over to our snorkeling destination. Many were adventurous and jumped off the 25 foot high cliff into the water, including my husband! One of our daughters and I snorkeled away from the main group a bit and I saw a few hundred yellow tang - more than I've ever seen before! There were many other kinds of fish there as well as Hawaii's state fish. Our oldest daughter had her snorkeling cut short when she got stung by a small jelly fish on the foot, as did one or two others in our tour, but that's a risk when in the ocean. Kevin and another Ocean Safari staff member who was there with his own tour both checked on our daughter after getting her back in the kayak. We had some snacks on the rocks near the tide pools before heading back to the kayaks for the

It was more wonderful than I imagined.
想像以上の素晴らしさでした
Posted on: 2010/07/05

Among the many sunset and stargazing tours available, I chose this one after reading reviews.

The weather and conditions were great, and the beauty of the sunset exceeded my expectations. The starry sky was so stunning that even after returning to the hotel late at night, I was too excited to fall asleep.

At first, I had trouble following the guide's explanations with the laser pointer and missed a few constellations, but overall, I was very satisfied. I had the chance to experience starlight and see Saturn's rings through a telescope, which was something I couldn't normally do, and I was extremely pleased. Personally, I think it would have been better to familiarize myself with the constellations for this time of year in advance. I was a bit worried about altitude sickness, but since we ascended gradually, it wasn't a problem at all. During the stargazing, they served us tea, which I think helped with hydration.

This may not be directly related to the tour, but during dinner, they served miso soup in bowls, and the bento boxes were not disposable but reusable, which showed the guide's effort and consideration for the environment.

If I have the opportunity again, I would love to join this tour once more.

数あるサンセットと星空観測ツアーの中、口コミなどを見てこちらのツアーに参加しました。

天候とコンディションもよく、想像以上のサンセットの美しさと満点の星空に、夜遅くツアーからホテルに帰ってからも、興奮してなかなか寝付けないくらいでした。

ガイドさんの説明も、最初はレーザーポインタを目で追うのが慣れなくて、いくつか星座を見逃してしまいましたが、充分満足できるものでした。星明りを体験したり、望遠鏡で土星の輪を見せてもらったり、普段経験できないことが存分にできて大変満足でした。個人的には、この時期の星座を事前に頭に入れておいておけば、良かったかと思います。高山病の不安もありましたが、時間をかけて上がっていったので、全く問題ありませんでした。星空観測の際も、お茶をサービスして頂き、水分を補給していたのが良かったのだと思います。

ツアーと直接関係ないかもしれないですが、夕食のお弁当の時に、お味噌汁をお椀でサービスして下さったり、お弁当箱もゴミで捨てるものではなく、回収してまた使えるものだったり、ガイドさんの手間は掛かるでしょうが、環境に対する配慮も感じられました。

また機会があったら、こちらのツアーに参加したいと思います。

Masashi Nature School "Sunset and Starry Sky" Tour
まさしネイチャースクール『夕陽と星空』のツアー
Posted on: 2010/07/04

I participated in the "Sunset and Starry Sky" tour at Masashi Nature School. Thank you very much for the other day. We truly appreciate your hospitality. For us, it was a honeymoon and our first time on the Big Island, creating wonderful memories.

We were deeply moved by the sunset viewed from Mauna Kea and the starry sky sparkling at night. The explanation about the stars was thorough and very easy to understand. The images taken with the high-sensitivity camera were also sent to us via email later, and the aftercare was excellent.

In addition to the starry sky, the bento and miso soup we received had a homemade feel and were very warm, which was another highlight for us.

The warm clothing provided was also a great help.

Thank you very much! I hope to use your services again when we travel somewhere else.

This was soooo much fun. The Best part of our trip. We had a blast snorkeling, jumping off the cliff, and even the kayaking wasn't so bad. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a way to spend a fun 3 1/2 hrs enjoying the water, catching some rays, and learning about the Island. It was GREAT!

イルカのジャンプに感激!
Posted on: 2010/06/13

I was a bit worried because the people I was supposed to join were not arriving, but thanks to the lively energy of some cheerful Latin American women, I had a great time. We encountered a pod of dolphins along the way, and they spun and jumped right next to the boat several times. The snorkeling was also very beautiful.

As mentioned in other reviews, I didn't have a good grasp of English, so I couldn't fully understand the explanations, and it was a bit disappointing that I couldn't communicate much with other foreigners. However, the captain and the other staff were very kind.

一緒に参加する方がなかなか到着ぜずどうなることかと思いましたが、とても陽気なラテン系のアメリカ人の女性たちのノリのおかげもあって、とても楽しく過ごすことができました。途中イルカの群れに遭遇し、船のすぐ近くで何回も回転したりジャンプしたりしてくれました。シュノーケリングもとてもきれいでした。
他の書き込みにもあるとおり、英語力がなく説明がよくわからなかったのと、他の外国人の方とコミュニケーションがあまり取れないのが残念でした。でもキャプテンも他のスタッフの方もとても親切です。

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 highly recommend it!
お奨めです!
Posted on: 2010/06/12

I participated on May 20th.
First, the reception desk was set up in front of the Body Glove boat. Staff members arrived a little before the meeting time. It seemed there were no staff who spoke Japanese, but everyone was very gentlemanly and friendly, and they kindly listened even to my broken English, which was helpful.
We encountered a pod of dolphins right after departure. I think there were about 20 of them. It was my first time seeing wild dolphins, and I was moved. By the way, we encountered them again at the same spot on the way back, so they might always be there during this time of year.
After that, it took about 40 minutes to reach the snorkeling point. There was guidance in English along the way, but I couldn't catch it because it was too fast. However, they showed us a Japanese explanation sheet, so it was not a problem at all.
You can enjoy snorkeling for over two hours at a depth of about 5 to 10 meters where there are coral reefs. The water was a bit cold and somewhat chilly, but the visibility was high and there were many fish, so I had a great time. There seemed to be life jackets available, but I was strongly recommended to use a noodle, which is a long foam float, and when I tried it, it was indeed easy to use. Of course, they also lend you a snorkel and fins.
As for meals, as soon as you get on the boat, you can freely take breakfast (bread, muffins, fruit, drinks), and when you arrive at the snorkeling point, lunch (bread, ham, vegetables, potato chips, drinks, etc., all of various kinds) is provided, which you can also eat freely. The taste was just average, but I thought it was good that there were various options.
We were the only Japanese participants, but I think it’s a tour that is easy to join because the staff is very polite. One point to note is that the boat sways quite a bit, so I think it would be safer for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some medication before participating.

 5月20日に参加してきました。
 まず、受付はボディグローブの船の前にデスクが置いてあり、そちらになります。集合時間の少し前からスタッフの方がいらっしゃいました。日本語の通じるスタッフはいないようでしたが、皆さん非常に紳士的かつフレンドリーで片言の英語でも丁寧に聞いてくれるので、助かりました。
 出発してすぐにイルカの群れに遭遇しました。20頭ぐらいはいたと思います。野生のイルカは初めて見たので感動でした。ちなみに、帰りも同じポイントで遭遇しましたので、この時期は日中いつもそこにいるのかも知れません。
 その後、40分ほどかけてシュノーケリングポイントに到達します。途中、英語でガイダンスがありますが、早口で全く聞き取れませんでした。でも、日本語の説明書を見せてくれるので全く問題なかったです。
 珊瑚礁のある深さ5~10m程度のところで2時間以上シュノーケリングを満喫できます。水がやや冷たく若干肌寒かったですが、透明度は高く魚も多いので楽しめました。ライフジャケットもあるようでしたが、ヌードルという細長い発泡スチロールのような浮きを強く奨められ、使ってみたところ確かに使いやすかったです。もちろん、シュノーケルとフィンも貸してくれます。
 食事は、船に乗るとすぐに朝食(パン、マフィン、果物、飲み物)をフリーで取ることができ、シュノーケリングポイントにつくとランチ(パン、ハム、野菜、ポテトチップス、飲み物などいずれも複数種類)が用意され、これもフリーで食べられます。味はまあ普通ですが、種類がいろいろあるのがよいと思いました。
 日本人は我々だけでしたが、スタッフがとても丁寧なので参加しやすいツアーだと思います。一点だけ、船は結構揺れるので、弱い方は酔い止めを飲んで参加した方が安心だと思います。

アメリカを感じるボードアドベンチャーでもガイドは英語
Posted on: 2010/06/08

Honestly, I set off not knowing what to expect.

The experience involved riding a high-speed jet board from the harbor near the King Kamehameha Hotel to Captain Cook.

There, I was able to rent a snorkeling set and snorkeled for about 30 minutes. Snacks (potato chips and chocolate chip cookies) and fruit were provided, along with soft drinks.

On the way back, we toured coastal sightseeing spots with explanations, but since the guide only spoke English, I felt a bit sad (like I missed out?).

Overall, I think it’s a refreshing experience that gives you a sense of an American adventure.

正直一体何が待っているのか不明で出発しました

内容としては、高速ジェットボードに乗り
キングカメハメハホテル近くの港から、キャプテンクックまでボードで走ります

そこで、シュノーケルセットを借りれて30分程度のシュノーケル
お菓子(ポテトチップとチョコチップクッキー)と果物
そして、ソフトドリンクがついていました

帰りは、海際の観光名所を回って説明をしてくれるんですが
ガイドさんが全員英語しか話せないため、ちょっと悲しい(損した?)気分になりました

全体的には、爽快な雰囲気でアメリカンアドベンチャーを感じられるプランだとは思います

Posted on: 2010/06/06

Even when looking at guidebooks and everyone's reviews, it was recommended that if you go to Hawaii, you should see the Luau show, and I was a bit skeptical about how good it really was.

The result was a huge success!!
While waiting for the show to start, I participated in interactive events and enjoyed some cocktails.
After that, I had a buffet meal and watched the show.
Not only was there hula, but also Tahitian dance and a fire show, making it a rich and enjoyable experience.

ガイドブックを見ても、みんなの口コミを見ても、ハワイに行ったら、ルアルショーがお勧めと書かれてあり、そんなに良いのかなぁ??と半信半疑で、申し込みました。

 結果は、大正解!!
ショーが始まるまでの間は、参加型のイベントに参加したり、カクテルを飲んだりして時間を過ごしました。
その後、バイキングの食事を食べ、ショーを見ました。
 フラだけでなく、タヒチのダンスやファイアーショーもあり内容が充実していて、楽しめました。

We slowly moved from the Kailua Pier to the submarine by boat. The coastline of Kailua-Kona is beautiful. Once inside the submarine, I was surprised at how spacious it was; we dove 100 feet (about 30 meters) and could see the seabed clearly. I am generally prone to seasickness, and since I was sleep-deprived after participating in the Mauna Kea summit sunrise tour, I experienced mild seasickness. I recommend that those who are prone to seasickness take medication before boarding the boat at the pier.

Dolphin
イルカ
Posted on: 2010/06/02

I was able to see dolphins. I was a bit worried because it seemed that some people couldn't see them, but during my visit, perhaps due to the timing, I was able to see dolphins swimming from the hotel balcony in the morning, so I wasn't too concerned. By the way, it was around mid-May, during the new moon phase (which may not be related).

As soon as we set sail, we saw dolphins up close, and I was really excited. I regretted not taking pictures because I thought we would be snorkeling there. We ended up snorkeling at another location, which had beautiful coral reefs. They provided masks and fins, and just floating in the sea was very soothing and enjoyable. There were always meals and drinks available, and the shower and restroom were clean, so I thought it was a nice experience. It felt more like a relaxing playtime.

I also did diving as an option. I didn't understand the language, but they properly informed us about the dive sites and guided us, so I had a lot of fun. However, once you start diving, the free time (if you can call it that) becomes limited. I thought it would be amazing if we could dive in the area where the dolphins are.

イルカ見れました。書き込みには、見れなかった人もいたようなので、ちょっと心配でしたが、私の時は、時期がよっかったのか、ホテルのベランダからも朝はイルカが泳いでいるのがみれていたので、心配がなたったです。ちなみに5月半ばの、(関係ないかもだけど、)新月位の時でした。
 出航してすぐイルカがみれ、まじかでしたので、ちょう興奮しました。そこでスノーケルかと思い写真をとらなかったのが、残念でした。スノーケルは、他の場所で、そこは珊瑚のきれいな海です。マスクとフィンを貸してくれて、海に浮いているだけでもとても癒されよかったです。食事も飲み物もつねにあるし、シャワーもついてるし、トイレもキレイなので、いい感じだと思います。どちらかというと、のんびり遊ぶ(癒しな)感じだと思います。
 オプションでダイビングもしました。言葉は解りませんが、ちゃんとポイント名も教えてくれて、ガイドもしてくれたので、結構楽しめました。 ただ、ダイビングをしてしまうと、自由時間(?)が少なくなってしまいます。せっかくなら、イルカがいるところで、ダイビングできたら最高なのにな、と思いました。

I participated in a cruise that departed at 9 AM.

On the day of the cruise, we were the only Japanese people, and the rest were foreigners. All the explanations were in English, but I didn't have any particular difficulties. On the way there and back, we encountered dolphins. We were able to stop the boat and enjoy watching the dolphins until they left. Unfortunately, the dolphins weren't at the snorkeling point, so we couldn't swim with them, but the rental snorkeling gear was very clean, and the boat had a slide that the kids could enjoy (the adults were sliding down too). They provided anti-fog spray for the snorkeling masks and tubes as substitutes for floatation devices, which made for a very comfortable experience. The snorkeling point was in shallow waters with not much wave action, and there were plenty of fish, so even kids could have fun.

There was someone celebrating a birthday that day, and we all sang a birthday song at the end. It was a fun tour.

朝9時出港のクルーズに参加しました。

当日は日本人は私たちだけであとは外人さんたちでした。

The captain and staff speak English, but they provide a paper with important notes and destination explanations in Japanese at the beginning, so there's no need to worry. They know a lot about Japan and speak in friendly, easy-to-understand English.

We traveled to the snorkeling point by rubber boat, and we immediately encountered swimming sea turtles in the harbor. Once we hit the open sea, we sped towards our destination. The sudden increase in speed made me think I might be thrown into the water at first (laughs), but I quickly got used to it and enjoyed the beautiful blue sea and the coastline of the Big Island while cheering on the bouncing boat.

Kealakekua Bay, where Captain Cook's monument is located, is a natural spot facing steep cliffs. The waves were calm, making it safe for me, even as a first-time snorkeler. The water was crystal clear and bright with sunlight, and the beautiful coral reefs and colorful fish made me lose track of time. Although it was far away, I was also able to see a pod of dolphins.

I had a great time, but when I got back and looked in the mirror, I noticed my back and the back of my thighs were sunburned and my butt had clear tan lines from my swimsuit. Please make sure to apply sunscreen thoroughly before you go!

キャプテンもスタッフも英語ですが、最初に注意事項や行き先の説明を日本語で書いた紙をくれるので、心配ありません。日本のことも良く知っていて、やさしい英語で気さくに話しかけてくれますよ♪
シュノーケルポイントへはゴムボートで行くのですが、港内でさっそく泳ぐ海亀に遭遇。海に出た後は目的地まで猛スピードで行きます。いきなりスピードアップしたので、最初は海に放り出されるかと思いました(笑)でもすぐに慣れて、飛び跳ねるボートに歓声をあげながら、真っ青な海やハワイ島の海岸線の景色を楽しむことができました。
クック船長の記念碑のあるケアラケクア湾は断崖絶壁に面した自然いっぱいの場所です。波も穏やかでシュノーケリングが初めての私でも安心でした。海は奥深くまで透き通って日の光で明るく、綺麗な珊瑚礁と色とりどりの魚たちには、時間が過ぎるのを忘れてしまうくらいでした。遠くでしたが、イルカの群れも見ることができました。
とても楽しかったですが、帰って鏡を見たら、背中、腿の裏が日焼けで赤くなってました。お尻も水着の跡がくっきり。日焼け止めは念入りに塗って行って下さいね。

Island Breeze Luau at King Kamehameha Kona Beach Hotel with Show, Dinner & Drinks Included
Island Breeze Luau
Posted on: 2010/05/27

Aloha! We attended Island Breeze Luau, and we had a great time! This was our first Luau, and our 12 and 16 year old was with us. They had a great representation of Hawaiin Foods, as well as American foods for those who didnt want the full experience. The entertainment was great, and it was obvious that they loved their work. The passion for thier culture, and familys was beautifully done. By the time you left, you felt like you were part of their Ohana. The only thing I may suggest is to have more fresh fruits for those on a limited diet and more flower leis for sale, as they ran out the first 25 customers. I would give it a 4 1/2 stars.
Thanks for the memories!!

I was moved on my first visit to Hawaii Island!
初めてのハワイ島で感動!
Posted on: 2010/05/26

Thank you for the magnificent lava plains of the Big Island, the breathtaking views of the mountains in nature, and most of all, to Mr. Yamamoto and Mr. Kurt from Alan1.net for a wonderful time!

Mr. Yamamoto, I was truly impressed by the enjoyable conversations and knowledge shared from the time of pickup until we returned. Thank you for passionately explaining the names of various Hawaiian flowers and plants, the history of lava, and especially all the constellations spread across the night sky. I was amazed by the constellations that cannot be seen in Japan. I was also grateful for the thorough preparations, from meals to drinks and warm clothing.

Mr. Kurt, at the time of pickup, I thought you might be a bit serious, but once you started talking about Hawaiian history, I truly understood your love for Hawaii. As time went on, you gradually conveyed your kindness and humor! I thought she must be chasing after you. Thank you for the long drive. I felt the depth of kindness and thoughtfulness of the people of Hawaii. The B-class gourmet food was also very delicious! Thank you very much.

ハワイ島の壮大な溶岩平野、大自然が広がる山々の景色、何よりすばらしいAlan1.netの山本さん、カートさん、楽しいひと時をありがとうございました! 
山本さん、ピックアップの時より帰り着くまで本当に楽しい会話と知識に感動しました。  様々なハワイの花や植物の名前や、溶岩の歴史、特に夜空に広がる星座の全てを体を張って説明してくれてありがとうございました。日本では見られない星座に感動感動でした。  そして、食事の用意から飲み物の用意、防寒服の用意まで至れり尽くせりで感謝感激でした。

カートさん、ピックアップの時は何やら難い人かなと思いましたが、ハワイの歴史を語り始めてカートさんのハワイを愛する心が心底わかりました。  時が経つにつれてやさしさや面白さを徐々に伝えてくれましたね! 彼女が追いかけて来る筈だと思いました。  でも、長い時間の運転ありがとうございました。  ハワイの人たちの優しさや思いやりの深さを感じました。B級グルメでもとても美味しかったです!  本当にありがとうございました。

スタッフがやさしいです

There is no Japanese announcement, so it can be a bit confusing if you can't understand English, but I think it was very good that they showed us a paper with guidance in Japanese.

日本語のアナウンスがないので、英語を聞き取れないと少し戸惑いますが、日本語のガイダンスの紙を見せてくれたので
それがとてもよかったと思います。

Kilauea is amazing!!
キラウエア最高!!
Posted on: 2010/05/17

Is this really Hawaii?? It was freezing at the summit of Kilauea, but there are definitely emotions there that you can't experience anywhere else.

The guide's explanations and thoughtfulness were thorough, and despite shivering from the cold, it became a wonderful memory.

これがハワイか????と思うくらい極寒のキラウエア山頂でしたが、絶対!!!味わえない感動がそこにはあります。

ガイドさんの説明、心遣いも行き届いていて、寒さに震えながらも素敵な思い出になりました。

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 sea and the fish were beautiful!
海と魚がきれいでした!
Posted on: 2010/05/16

After gathering and listening to the instructions, we boarded the boat and headed out to sea. We encountered a sea turtle as we left the harbor. Once we departed, the boat accelerated quickly, cutting through the wind. I was surprised by the speed! Once I got used to the rhythm of the waves, it was a lot of fun. (However, if you are prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to have some medication on hand.)

On the way to the snorkeling point, we enjoyed the coastal scenery, including beaches. The snorkeling point is right next to Captain Cook's monument. Even from a distance, the coral was beautifully visible, and when I went snorkeling, I was amazed to see so many fish. The colorful fish eating the coral were adorable. I also spotted a pod of dolphins in the distance.

The weather was cloudy and a bit chilly, but I had a great time. On the way back, we stopped by the blowhole and caves, and the captain provided explanations for each. It was a bit challenging to catch everything since the explanations were in English, but it was nice to realize that all the other participants were foreigners, making it feel like we were truly enjoying marine sports abroad.

The meeting point was easy to find thanks to clear signage, so I arrived without getting lost. I highly recommend this experience!

集合して、注意事項を聞いた後、ボートに乗って海へ。
港を出るときに海亀に出会いました。港を出るとどんどん加速して風を切って走っていきました。そのスピードにびっくり!波のリズムに慣れるととても楽しかったです。(ただ、乗り物酔いする方は酔い止めがあった方が安心かもしれません。。)
ボートでシュノーケリングポイントへ行く途中、ビーチなどなど海岸沿いの景色も楽しめました。
シュノーケリングポイントはクック船長の記念碑のすぐそば。遠くからでもサンゴがきれいに見えて、シュノーケリングしてみるとたくさんの魚がいて感動でした。
色とりどりの魚たちが珊瑚を食べてる姿がかわいかったです。イルカの群れも海の向こうに見えました。
天気が曇っていて少し寒かったのですが、とても満喫できました。
帰りがけに潮吹き岩や洞窟によって、船長さんがそれぞれの説明をしてくれました。説明が英語だったので聞き取るのが大変でしたが、参加者が私たち以外はみんな外国の方で、外国でマリンスポーツをしていることをとても実感。よかったです。
集合場所も目印の看板が分かりやすくて迷わず到着することができましたし、おすすめです!

Hula Kai Kona First Class Snorkel Tour - 2 Snorkeling Stops, Breakfast & Lunch
High Quality
Posted on: 2010/05/15

We went on the deluxe snorkel cruise. The boat was phenomenal! The boat itself is one of the nicest I've ever been on, and I was impressed with the overall quality of everything on board. The snorkeling was great! We swam with tropical fish and even a Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle. Along the coral reef I saw an octopus and an eel. This was such a great experience!
