Big Island
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.
ヘリコプターの初搭乗なこともありますが、エキサイティングでした。パイロットさんが日本語でも解説してくれたので、助かりました。まあ、火山活動なので仕方ないですが、キラウエアの赤い溶岩は見られませんでした。あと、滝への着陸ツアーではありませんが、見られると思っていたので少し残念です。
I think it would be better if it were the passenger seat. When someone outside the group rides in the co-pilot seat, their clothing and behavior can affect the comfort and visibility for the people in
やはり助手席だったらと思います。グループ外の人がパイロット助手席に同乗した場合、その人の服装、振る舞いで、後席の人は快適性、外の見易さに影響アリです。ガイダンス通り暗めの服装をして欲しいです。

The explanations are in English, so it's tough with limited language skills, but I managed somehow (^ - ^)
Anyway, the dolphins are adorable!
Playing, swimming, and feeding them was a valuable experience.
説明は英語なので、半端な語力では辛いけど、まあ、なんとかなります(^-^)
とにかく、イルカはかわいいです！
一緒に遊び、泳ぎ、エサやり。貴重な体験でした。
Even if you're not very good at English, you should challenge yourself. You'll manage somehow. If you care about dolphins and closely observe the instructor's actions, you'll understand where it's oka
多少、英語が苦手でもチャレンジすべきです。なんとかなります。イルカを大事に思い、インストラクターの動作をよく見れば触って良いところがわかります。

Absolutely fabulous!
Dancers were amazing. Musicians and singers . Loved it all!
The sea had been rough due to the swells for the past three days. However, the kayak launch area was in a bay, allowing for smooth boarding and disembarking. The offshore conditions were calm enough to enjoy kayaking. Although we couldn't go far into the spot due to the waves, we were able to feel the power of nature up close. There were plenty of fish while snorkeling.
3日前からのうなりの影響で海は荒れていました。
しかし、カヤック乗り場は湾になっておりスムーズな乗り降りができました。
沖合は落ち着いて？おりカヤックを楽しむことができました。
スポットは波の影響で中まで入ることはできませんでしたが、大自然の力強さを肌で感じることができました。
シュノーケルは魚がたくさんいました。
If you are prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is essential. My wife took anti-nausea medication, so she had no issues, but I was completely drunk.
酔いやすい方は酔い止め必須
妻は酔い止めを飲んでいたので問題ありませんでしたが、私はベロベロでした。

Excellent crew. Very knowledgeable and made sure everyone had a positive experience. All ages can do this experience. We saw humpback whales on the boat ride to snorkeling and a pod of dolphins joined us in the bay while snorkeling. It was a very fun experience and I would highly recommend it.
Do it, you won’t be disappointed.
Such an amazing experience! The handlers were well educated on the dolphins and it was great
Please book this experience! It is well worth it
I participated in a family trip for both families before the wedding. The drive to Mauna Kea was enjoyable, as our driver shared fascinating stories about the Big Island, making it completely engaging. We ascended slowly while acclimatizing to the altitude, so it wasn't exhausting at all. It was my first time experiencing an elevation of 4,000 meters, and the views were unforgettable.
結婚式前の両家家族旅行として参加。
マウナケアまてのドライブも、運転手の方がずっと楽しくハワイ島についてのお話をしてくださり、全く退屈しませんでした。高度順応しながらゆっくり上がるので、しんどさもなく、生まれて初めて4000mの高さを経験しましたが、忘れられない景色でした。

Excellent trainers really made it a personalized experience for everyone!
I struggled with English, so there were parts I didn't understand, but I have already experienced the volcano as an option. This tour was great because I got to experience the world of ancient Hawaii, as well as Kona coffee and honey from the present-day Big Island.
英語が苦手だとわからないから部分もあるけど、火山はオプションでもう経験済。このツアーはハワイの昔、映画モアナの世界と現在のハワイ島のコナコーヒーと蜂蜜を体験出来て良かったです
English only.
英語オンリーです

Just one word: it was amazing.
At 2:10 PM, they came to pick us up at our hotel, and we had time to acclimate to the altitude with care for altitude sickness.
The sunset viewed from the summit was truly spectacular, unlike anything I had seen before. After that, we moved by car to the observation point, and the sandwiches served in the car were cold but still delicious hot sandwiches, which I enjoyed even though I'm not a fan of bread.
The starry sky was blessed with good weather, and we could see the Milky Way. Our guide, James, showed us Jupiter and Venus using a telescope. He also used a pointer to trace the constellations in the actual night sky, making it easy to understand the constellations. Finally, they took photos of each participant, and in those pictures, even the invisible stars were captured, which was fantastic.
This was our first time visiting the Big Island as a couple, and I would love to come back before we reach the age limit of 70.
Thank you very much, James, for everything.
ただ一言最高でした。
14時10分に宿泊先のホテルまで車で迎えに来ていただき、高山病ケアで高地に順応する時間まで用意されていました。
山頂から見下ろすサンセットは、これまでにない素晴らしいものでした。その後、観測する地点まで車で移動するのですが、車内で振る舞われたサンドイッチは冷えてはいましたがホットサンドイッチで、パンが苦手な私も美味しくいただけました。
星空は天候にも恵まれて、素晴らしく、天の川まで見えました。ガイドのジェームズさんが、天体望遠鏡を使って木星や金星などを見せてくれました。また、ポインターを用いて実際の星空に線で星座をなぞっていただき、分かりやすく星座を教えて下さいました。最後に、参加者ごとに写真を撮っていただくのですが、その写真には目にも見えない星が写っていて最高でした。
今回はじめて夫婦でハワイ島に来ましたが、年齢制限のある70歳前にもう一度来たいと思いました。
ガイドのジェームズさん、いろいろとありがとうございました。
You can participate easily since winter gear is provided.
防寒具は揃っているので、気軽に参加できます。

Great experience overall, our guide James is very nice, he is knowledgeable and funny, definitely would recommend it to my friends
The mic connection be having issues sometimes.
The sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea and the stargazing a little further down were incredibly beautiful! I was so happy to be able to take a lot of photos!
マウナケア山頂でのサンセットも、
少し下ったところでの星空観賞も、めちゃめちゃ綺麗でした！
たくさん写真も撮っていただけて嬉しかったです！
In February, Hawaii can reach nearly 30 degrees Celsius, but near the mountain summit, it can be around 0 degrees. They can lend you down jackets, but I recommend going in warm clothing as well.
2月のハワイは30度近くになりますが、山頂付近は0度程です。
ダウン等は貸していただけますが、自分でも暖かい格好で行くことをおすすめします。

I participated with a couple of friends. Five years ago, I couldn't go up due to a local demonstration, but this time the weather was great, and both the sunset and the starry sky were incredibly beautiful and moving.
I was a bit worried because it mentioned an English guide, but thanks to Sho-chan's excellent Japanese explanations, the enjoyment was doubled.
The price is a bit high, but it's worth going.
友達夫婦と参加しました。5年前に行った時は、現地の方たちのデモで上がることができなかったのですが、今回はお天気にも恵まれサンセットも星空もとても美しく感動しました。
英語ガイドと書いてあったので、少し不安でしたが日本語がとっても上手なしょうちゃんの説明のおかげで楽しさも2倍でした。
少々値段は高いですが、行く価値はあります。
I was glad that someone in the group had an iPhone because they sent photos via AirDrop.

In general, my family and I had a good experience. Dexter was a fantastic driver and tour guide.
The only thing we did not like is that we had to drop and pick-up people at the airport 3 times, I'd rather spend more time in the rainbow falls than going over and over to the airport.
Be prepare for cook weather, rain, slippery trails, etc.
Aloha and mahalo for your review!
We’re so glad to hear that you and your family had a good experience and that Dexter made a great impression as your driver and guide—he’ll be happy to hear your kind words!
We also appreciate your feedback about the multiple airport stops. We understand how this can affect the flow of the tour, and we’ll be sure to share your comments with our operations team as we continuously look for ways to improve our guest experience.
Thank you for choosing Polynesian Adventure, and we hope to welcome you back again for another island adventure!
Warmest aloha,

This is a must-do experience while on the Big Island. Local knowledge and passion for the history and importance of this amazing valley makes this guided tour an incredible experience for all ages.
James's hospitality was outstanding. The explanations of the terrain visible on the way there, the air conditioning settings in the vehicle, and the background music were all excellent! During the sunset, he encouraged us to take photos with our smartphones, making it easier for us. Despite the cold, the hot cocoa warmed us up, and we were very satisfied to be able to gaze at the starry sky for as long as time allowed. Photos taken against the backdrop of the starry sky are something you can't capture on your own, so they make for a wonderful keepsake.
ガイドさん(Jamesさん)のホスピタリティが最高でした。
往路で見られる地形の説明や、車内空調設定、bgm、どれもとっても良かったです！
サンセットではスマホでの写真撮影をこちらからお願いしやすくなるよう、たくさん声掛けしてくださいました。
寒い中でしたが、ホットココアが体に染み渡り、また、時間の許す限り満天の星空を眺められ大変満足です。
星空をバックにした写真は自分で撮れるものではないので、記念になります。

I was prepared for everything to be in English, but the speaking speed was fast and it was hard to hear due to the sound of the waves, so it was quite challenging to understand. Despite that, the crew members were very kind and listened to my broken English questions. It was an interesting experience to ride in a traditional canoe. I was also glad to see several mantas!
全て英語なのは覚悟の上でしたが、話すスピード早い&波の音でよく聞こえないので理解するのがなかなか大変でした。そんななかでも、つたない英語の質問を聞いてくれたり親切にしてくださってクルーの方はとても良い方でした。
伝統的なカヌーにも乗れて面白い体験でした。
マンタも何匹も見れて良かったです！
If you can't swim and don't understand English, I recommend a tour where you can speak Japanese. If you can swim, you'll be fine just by watching and imitating!
泳げない&英語がわからない人は日本語が話せるツアーの方をおすすめします。
泳げるなら見よう見まねでできるので、大丈夫です!

I didn't want to go into the ocean, but my elderly mother did, and since it was our first time in Hawaii, I wanted to see the underwater world while snorkeling. The glass-bottom boat made both of our wishes come true.
While we didn't see a wide variety of colorful corals, the water was clearer than we expected, and we were able to see quite a few fish. We even encountered dolphins! Although we only saw their fins.
The staff were cheerful and kind, and even though we hardly spoke any English, we had a great time.
海に入りたくない高齢の母と、せっかく初めてのハワイ島だからシュノーケルで海の中を見てみたい私。どちらの希望も叶えてくれたのがこのグラスボートでした。
色とりどりの珊瑚〜とまではいきませんでしたが、予想より水の透明度が高く、そこそこ魚も見られました。イルカも遭遇しましたよ！ヒレしか見えませんでしたが。
スタッフも明るく親切、英語のほとんど話せない私達でも充分楽しめました。

Our experience on the boat was fantastic! The vessel was clean, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a comfortable trip. The staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. The service was exceptional—staff members were attentive, frequently checking in to offer drinks and clear dishes. Overall, it was a smooth and enjoyable experience, and I would highly recommend it!
Thanks so much for joining us and the five star review! We hope your travels have you visiting us again in the near future.
An unexpected and surprising journey of elves. We are tourists from China, attracted by the original vegetation, wild horses, and clear streams in the valley. The travelogue written upon returning to China has attracted a lot of attention from friends.
Pay attention to the weather forecast and choose sunny days for viewing.
The drinks were delicious, and I was able to enjoy local dishes like Kalua pig, along with an impressive show. The music and the dance were all wonderful. Since I watched it at Sunset Beach, I can't forget that sunset. If I have the chance to come again, I will definitely watch it one more time.
お酒も美味しく、お料理もカルアピックなど郷土料理も堪能できら上に圧巻のショー。曲も踊りも全てが素敵でした。サンセットビーチで観れたのであの夕焼けが忘れられません。また来る機会があったら、絶対もう一回観ます。
For those celebrating birthdays or weddings, everyone from the guests will be able to offer their congratulations.
お誕生日や結婚祝いの方、ゲスト皆んなから祝福してもらえますよ。

Due to it being winter, it seems that the mountain was closed the day before and we couldn't reach the summit, but we were able to safely climb to the top and see the snowy white Mauna Kea, just as its name suggests, which was a rare experience. It was also rare to see people skiing. The sunset and the starry sky were beautiful, unobstructed by clouds or moonlight. Our Japanese guide, Kouki, was kind, knowledgeable about the stars, and skilled at taking photos, making it a wonderful tour.
冬という事もあり、前日は閉山して頂上まで行けなかったようですが、私達は無事に頂上まで登れて、マウナケアの名前の由来通り、雪の残る白いマウナケアが見れてレア体験でした。スキーをしている人を見れたのもレアでした。サンセットも星空も雲と月の光の邪魔もなく、綺麗にみれました。日本人ガイドのコウキさんも親切で星空に詳しく、写真も上手で、とてもいいツアーでした

The guide spoke English, but they supported us even if we didn't understand English. It was very sunny, and the stars were beautiful.

Wonderful company to work with. Very professional, beautiful Leis. Everyone was so happy!!
Would highly recommend this company.
Kona sunsets are awesome, definitely our favorite. We loved that we got a night to just take it in while enjoying the ocean and awesome eats
My family had a wonderful experience! we saw plnety of rays even my wife and son from the boat.
This was truly awe inspiring. It is absolutely a must do, our tour guide Wes was incredible. We can’t rave enough about it
I was able to experience my dream submarine. I felt excited as we dove down. I wish it were a bit cheaper.

Everything was perfect! The boat is virtually brand new and is spotless! The crew was amazingly friendly and competent. We were traveling with 3 generations of our family, ranging from 3 to 72 and everyone raved about how this was one of the best adventures any of us had ever experienced! You will not regret booking an adventure on the Spirit of Aloha!!!
It was amazing to finally see the sunset and starry sky at Mauna Kea! I was a bit worried that it might be cloudy, but beyond the clouds, there was an incredible view! I'm grateful to the guide who was very kind.
念願だったマウナケアで、サンセットと星空を見ることができて最高でした！！
途中、曇っているかも？と少し心配しましたが、雲を抜けた先に感動的な景色がありました！
とても親切にしてくださったガイドさんに感謝です。
It might be a good idea to prepare for the cold and bring motion sickness medication, as there are some bumpy roads along the way.
しっかり寒さ対策をすることと、途中から揺れる道もあるので酔い止めを持って行くと良いかもしれません。
