Grand Circle Island Tour - Volcano, Black Sand Beach, Waipio Valley & Waterfalls

Circle Island Tour

Reviewed by: Ron

My wife and I did not have a car for the week but wanted to see the Island for what it had to offer. This tour came to our Hotel and picked us up as well as brought us back and gave a view of the Island most people would not be able to see. Our driver Nathan was excellent and gave us a relaxed and informed trip and even gave us some extra insights that a book would not give. The views were amazing and gave you an option if you wanted to come back and stay for more indepth viewing. I would recommend going with a tour to really get the flavor of the Island.

Mauna Kea Summit マウナケア山頂

Reviewed by: タカノリ

It was really great.
The weather was favorable, so we could see a lot of stars. It was the best stargazing experience of my life.
The guide was fun, reliable, and there were no complaints.
They also took care of my health, and since it was a trip while acclimatizing to high altitude, that was good.
The only downside was that the bento was a bit mediocre. The miso soup was incredibly delicious.

すごく良かった。
天候にも恵まれたため、かなり星空が見えた。人生で最高の星空体験。
ガイドさんも楽しく。頼り甲斐があり、文句なし。
体調面も気を使ってもらい、高地順応しながらの旅だったのでよかった。
残念な点は、弁当が微妙なところ。味噌汁は最高に美味しかった。

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 healed by the dolphins! イルカさんたちに癒されました！

Reviewed by: ムムネコ

I participated alone since my friend is not comfortable with the ocean, but the other participants were friendly, and thanks to our guide Daisuke, I had a wonderful time! I wasn't familiar with our guide, but he is also a photographer for dolphins and whales, and the tour itself is a warm experience that values the feelings of the dolphins.

After about 40 minutes out to sea, we encountered a group of dolphins. The guide communicated with the dolphins and led us, allowing us to see them up close. When a dolphin slowly approached us at such a close distance and we locked eyes, I was so moved that I shed tears! We also got to see the spinning jumps of the spinner dolphins multiple times. This tour filled me with gratitude for the dolphins' kindness and the beauty of the ocean as seen from the boat. I highly recommend this experience for anyone visiting the Big Island of Hawaii. (Afterward, my friend was inspired by my excitement and wanted to join, but the reservations were fully booked for several days ahead, so be sure to book early!)

友達が海は苦手ということで１人参加しましたが、参加者の方々もフレンドリーで、ガイドのだいすけさんのおかげで心地よく過ごせました！ガイドの方は存じ上げなかったのですが、イルカやクジラさんたちの写真家でもあり、ツアー自体もイルカの気持ちを大事にしている暖かいツアーです。
40分ほどで沖に出るとイルカさんたちがわらわらいました。ガイドの方がイルカとコミュニケーションを取りながら誘導してくれたので、間近で見れましたし、真横にゆっくり！？至近距離で来てくれたイルカさんとジッーと目が合ったときは、感動して涙が出ちゃいました！
回転しながらジャンプするというスピナードルフィンぶりも何度も見せてくれました。イルカの優しさやボートから見る海の美しさに感謝でいっぱいになるツアーです。ハワイ島にきたらまずオススメしたいと思います。(その後、私の感動っぷりに触発された友達が参加しようとしましたが、数日先まで予約が埋まっていたのでお早めに！)

It was great that the pickup was close to the port, and we didn't have to go far from the port to see a large group of dolphins. I didn't expect to see dolphins so close to the port.

We were lucky to see dolphins multiple times, and it was so much fun.

Guide Ray and all the staff were wonderful in their thoughtfulness.

Thank you very much!

送迎で港まで近いのと、港からボートまで遠くに行かなくてもイルカの大群に会えたので良かったです。こんなに港近くでイルカに会えるとは思わなかったからです。
何度もイルカに会えたのは、運が良かったのもありますが、とっても楽しかったです。

The Segway experience is fun. セグウェイ体験が面白い

Reviewed by: テット

You can explore the sights of Kailua-Kona while experiencing a Segway tour, which offers a delightful two-in-one experience. It was a very unique adventure, as we passed through the bustling streets, visited the oldest church in Hawaii, and zipped through the remnants of a runway. It was also great that this activity could be enjoyed in the evening. We had a fulfilling time stopping by the beach and watching the sunset. The president who accompanied us captured our experience on video, creating a wonderful montage. They also took plenty of photos, making for great memories.

カイルアコナの名所をセグウェイ体験しながら回れるので、
一石二鳥の面白さがある。
繁華街を通り抜けながらハワイ州で一番古い教会を見学したり、

The sunset and the starry sky viewed from above the clouds! It was so healing for my heart! 雲上から眺める夕陽と満天の星！心が癒されました！

Reviewed by: honu

This time, we were blessed with good weather, and the sunset and stargazing from above the clouds were wonderful. I was captivated by the gradient of colors changing from yellow to deep red, forgetting the passage of time. During stargazing, I was able to see the North Star, the Southern Cross, the Milky Way, and several shooting stars, which reminded me of the starry skies at Yokote Mountain where I used to stay during my student days. Although I had a view of about 180 degrees, this time it was a full 360 degrees☆☆☆☆☆. The guide's explanations of the constellations were easy to understand, and thanks to that, I was able to grasp how to observe constellations, which I found confusing in elementary school science. I had no idea that Scorpio was so large. I'm thrilled that I've now been able to identify constellations beyond just the Big Dipper.

今回は、天候にも恵まれ雲上からの夕陽と星座観測が素晴らしかったです
夕日は暫し、時間の経過も忘れ唯々その黄色から深紅に変わりゆくグラデーションに見とれていました。
星座観測では、北極星・南十字星・天の川に加え、複数の流れ星も見ることができて、久しぶりに学生時代に居候していた横手山の星空を思い出しました。せいぜ１８０度位の視界でしたが、今回は３６０度☆☆☆☆☆に☆彡三昧でした。ガイドさんの星座の解説も判りやすく、小学校の理科ではチンプンカンプンだった星座の見方もお陰様で分かるようになりました。さそり座があんなに大きかったなんて知りませんでした。これからは、北斗七星以外にも自分で見つけられる星座ができたことはうれしい限りです。

Snow in Hawaii!! ハワイで雪！！

Reviewed by: sweet

This is quite an old post, but... I wanted to do some stargazing, so I signed up for this tour in December! I already knew it had snowed while I was in Japan, and when I received a call before the pickup time, I was informed that "due to the snowfall at the summit of Mauna Kea, stargazing might not be possible." I appreciated the advance notice, as it allowed me to prepare mentally.

On the day of the tour, there were quite a few clouds, and it seemed like the weather was going to be a challenge for deciding where to watch the sunset. However, our guide worked really hard, checking the cloud conditions and exchanging information with other guides, and we were able to move around and successfully view the sunset! We also got some wonderful photos taken!

The guide made sure to use the digital cameras and DSLRs that participants had to capture the best shots. Before stargazing, we had some time for shopping, exploring wild plants, and enjoying a lunch break. The warmth of the miso soup was comforting in the cold! At such a high altitude, the air felt different from what you would expect in Hawaii.

Then it was time for stargazing... or so we thought, but unfortunately, there had been snowfall near the summit, and the road was closed, so we couldn't go to the top. It was really disappointing, but the stars were beautiful even from the mid-level area where we waited! Since we couldn't do the stargazing, we also received a partial refund.

However, thanks to our unique and entertaining guide who worked hard throughout the tour, I had a very enjoyable time! If I get the chance again, I would love to try for a second time! Thank you so much to the guide who put in so much effort from start to finish!

かなり前の投稿になってしまいますが…
星空観察がしたくて、12月にこちらのツアーに申し込みました！
雪が降ったことは日本にいるときに既に知っており、
ピックアップ時間前にお電話を頂いた時も「マウナケア山頂の積雪によってもしかすると星空観測ができないかもしれない」という連絡を頂いていました。
事前連絡を頂けて、心の準備ができたので有難かったです。
当日は少し雲が多めで、サンセットの場所をどうするかがかなりの悩ましいお天気だったようです。
でも、すごく頑張ってガイドさんが雲の様子を見ながらほかのガイドさんとの情報交換を続けてくれて、あちこちと動いてくれて無事にサンセットを見学！！
素敵な写真も撮っていただきました！！
参加者が持っているデジカメや一眼レフも、ちゃんと使いこなしてベストな写真を残してくださいます。
星空観測の前に時間があって、ショッピングや野草の見学、お弁当タイムも。
寒さにお味噌汁の温かさがしみるぅぅ！
標高が高いので、ハワイとは思えないような空気を感じます。
そしていざ、星空観察…！！
の予定でしたが、あいにく頂上付近からしばらく積雪があり、道路はクローズになっていて頂上には行けませんでした…。
本当に残念でしたが、待機していた中腹部分でも星はきれいでした！
そして、星空観察ができなかった為、一部返金もしていただきました。
でも、個性的な面白いガイドさんが終始頑張ってくれたおかげで、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました！
また機会があるなら、リベンジしたいです！
せっかくのツアー時間だからと、最初から最後まですごく頑張ってくださったガイドさん、本当にありがとうございました^^

This was the most anticipated activity of our honeymoon. It was incredibly fun and an unforgettable tour that exceeded our expectations! Our guide, Daisuke, had a special connection with the dolphins and truly knew them better than anyone else…! He was so enthusiastic that he even bent the captain's instructions to let us try again, shining with joy more than any other participant that day (laughs). However, that enthusiasm made us participants very happy, and I believe we had a truly valuable experience! There were quite a number of dolphins, and I will never forget the view the moment I put my face in the water! All the other staff members were friendly and wonderful people! I was able to spend a lovely time with the other participants. Thank you so much! If I can visit the Big Island again, I would definitely love to participate again!!

I have experienced Segway tours in other countries, but I was interested in the 2-hour sunset tour and participated with my spouse. It was so much fun! Since we would be riding in narrow places and on public roads, we first received gentle and thorough instructions from Nana indoors before setting off. The tour, led by President Alan and Nana, took us around temples and the former airport site. I thought two hours might be a bit long, but it ended in no time. It was a packed tour that allowed us to enjoy the fun of riding a Segway while also learning about the history of the Big Island. Plus, we had the bonus of the sunset. Additionally, Alan edited and sent us videos he took during the tour, which became a wonderful memory. Mahalo! The hospitality was top-notch. I would love to participate again. Thank you, Nana and Alan!

セグウェイは他国のツアーで経験してますが、2時間のサンセットツアーに興味を持ち夫婦で参加。楽しかったあ。狭い場所や公道を走るとの事で、まず室内でナナさんに優しく丁寧な手ほどきを受け出発。社長のアランさんとナナさんの先導で寺院や空港跡地等をめぐるツアー。2時間は少し長いかなと思いましたがあっという間に終了。セグウェイに乗る楽しさと共にハワイ島の歴史にも触れられるてんこ盛りツアー。サンセットのおまけ付き。また、ツアー中にアラン社長が撮影した動画を編集して送って頂き、これは何よりもいい思い出となりました。Mahalo! ホスピタリティー最高。また参加したいと思います。ナナさん、アランさん。有難う御座いました！

Deluxe Captain Cook Snorkeling Tour at Kealakekua Bay - Fair Wind Cruises

Knowledgable, respectful, fun captain and crew.

It is hard to know which cruise to book--well this is the one I would go with each time! The crew were knowledgable and respectful! As we came into the bay, their were a pod of spinner dolphins; we kept a respectful distance but we all got to take photos. Then when we pulled into anchor and snorkel, they made sure we knew to keep our distance from where the dolphins were swimming, since the dolphins come to the bay to rest it is even more important for people to give them their space--so impressed with the crew.

The snorkeling was beautiful. The coral was amazing and at many different levels with sooo many different species of fish!! Fabulous!

The stargazing and sunset were beyond my expectations. I had heard it would be cold, but the warm clothing kept me comfortable, and I was able to enjoy the sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea. The bento we had along the way was delightful, featuring white rice, fried white fish, and teriyaki chicken, along with some vegetables! The taro or sweet potato was delicious. And the miso soup was a bit salty for me!

After the sunset, the stargazing was amazing. Our guide, MASA, showed us Jupiter through the telescope, and the second guide (Yona-mitchi?!) explained the stars very well! I was surprised to see the Southern Cross. I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't find out my own constellation.

Thank you for ensuring I didn't get altitude sickness and for bringing me back safely.

I gathered at the port, which is about a 10-minute drive from the hotel in Kona! There were so few Japanese people that I felt a sense of relief in an environment where Japanese could be spoken.

At first, we had a hard time finding the dolphin spot and kept cruising around the Waikoloa area. Just when I started to worry, the boat stopped, and we entered the water!

When we dove in at the call of "Here they come!", a large number of dolphins swam towards us!!!! The dolphins, which I usually only see in the aquarium, swam towards us leisurely and happily.

They twirled around, jumped, and swam close together, and it was such a precious experience that was incredibly cute!!! Thank you, Lei and Aki, for sharing so many stories and for being such warm-hearted people. I had a wonderful time! Thank you very much!

ハワイ島　セグウェイで巡るカイルア・コナ名所散策ツアー！サンセットプランあり＜英語ガイド＞

I can't help but shout, "It feels great!" 気持ちいい～って叫んじゃう

Reviewed by: MASASHI

I participated in a 120-minute sunset tour. I was able to park my rental car in the parking lot behind Ali'i Sunset Plaza. It seems that parking is free for up to two hours.

When I entered the shop, I was warmly welcomed by the president (an American), the guide Nana (a Japanese), and Mama (an American). Since there were only the two of us participating, it turned out to be a private tour. The guide explained that the president would accompany us and take videos and photos for free!

I chose a helmet with a design I liked, practiced a bit, and then we set off! We visited not only the classic spots but also beautiful and unique places that weren't even in the guidebook. The guiding method involved going to the destination on a Segway, which was great because we weren't on the Segway the whole time, so it wasn't tiring.

Especially at Old Kona Airport, it was still spacious and felt like a runway, so we could ride the Segway freely! I couldn't help but shout like Hiroyuki Ariyoshi, "Riding the Segway feels great!"

I had plenty of time to ride the Segway, and it was wonderful to chat with the president and the guide. When we returned to the office, the president showed us the videos and photos he took. They were so beautifully captured that I couldn't believe they were taken with just one iPhone! Moreover, he said he would edit them even better and send them to us!

I think this will become the best memory! I'm glad I participated! Thank you!

Our tour had less light compared to other tours, and people around us mentioned that other places were gathering more plankton. I agree with that. We could only see the mantas from a distance at the neighboring tour, which lacked impact. Additionally, one of the participants was splashing their feet and making noise, which made it seem like the mantas didn't want to come closer. I wished the instructor had better control over the participants.

自分たちのツアーは、他のツアーに比べてライトの量が少なく他のところの方がプランクトンを集めているんじゃないかと周りの人が言ってました。私も同感です。となりのツアーのところに来ているマンタを遠くから見る事しか出来ず、迫力に欠けました。また、同じツアー参加者が、足をバタバタさせて騒ぐので、マンタも近づいてくれなかった様に感じます。インストラクターはもっと参加者をコントロールして欲しかったです。

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ＜12～3月／午前／軽食付き／ワイコロアまたはカワイハエ港発＞

There were more than I expected! 思ったよりもたくさんいました！

Reviewed by: emi

This is a winter limited event, so I thought I had to go this time! There were hardly any Japanese people, and the explanations were in English, but I was able to enjoy the atmosphere! As for the whales, I was able to see their tails and spouts, although it was from quite a distance. I think there were quite a few of them. However, I couldn't see them as close as it was mentioned on the reservation site, so that was a bit different from my expectations.

冬季限定だしこれはもう今回行くしかない！…と思い参加しました。日本人はほとんどいなくて説明も英語でしたが、雰囲気で楽しめました！クジラはというと、かなり遠くからではありましたが尾びれや潮吹きを見ることができました。数も結構いたように思います。ただ、予約サイトにあるような近さでは見られなかったのでそこだけ期待と違っていたかな。

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

An unexpected event... 予想外の出来事…

Reviewed by: emi

A friend recommended that I go up to nearly 4,000 meters on Mauna Kea, so I found this tour and joined. I was looking forward to enjoying the starry sky as we drove there, but due to an unexpected wildfire, we could only climb partway and had to turn back. Although I couldn't see the stars at the summit, the guide was very thoughtful and stopped the car at various points so we could admire the night sky. We were also able to see a beautiful sunset. It was extremely cold, but the guide lent me a cozy warm jacket, which was a lifesaver! I hope to be able to see the stars at the summit next time...

友人から「マウナケア4000メートル近くまで行くのがお勧め」と言われ、このツアーを見つけて参加しました。星空を楽しみに車で向かいましたが、まさかの山火事で途中までしか登れずUターンすることに…。山頂で星空を見ることはできませんでしたが、ガイドさんもいろいろ考えてくれて途中途中で車を止めながら星空を眺めることができました。それにサンセットはきれいにみることができました。めちゃくちゃ寒かったですが、ガイドさんがモコモコの防寒着を貸してくれたので助かりました！次回は山頂で見られますように…

Deluxe Volcano Unveiled Tour and Golden Lava Cave Expedition [Not Available]

A Dream Come True

Reviewed by: Annie

This was purchased as a birthday gift for my sister. She has always been fascinated by volcanoes and it's been her lifelong dream to come to the island and see the volcano for herself. She was incredibly excited to have this tour. However, the day before it was scheduled, she received a call and was told that there had been a mistake when recording her reservation and they no longer had room for her on her scheduled date. They offered to move her reservation to a different day or to schedule her for the same day as her initial reservation for instead for the Epic Circle Island Volcano Journey. She chose to keep her originally scheduled day and do the Epic Circle Island Volcano Journey.

The woman who called was very apologetic and kind, let's face it, humans make mistakes sometimes, we've all done it. They did their very best to make it right. In the end, my sister said her experience was incredible and she was glad there had been a little bit of a mix up, because she thought the tour she went on was better (granted, that is based purely on the description of the originally scheduled tour).

Her guide was knowledgeable and told all kinds of stories about Pele and the island and recounted the history of the volcano. The lava tube they visited was unique and interesting and fascinated her.

Overall, it was a huge win and even in spite of the little problem I would definitely book again!

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＞

I didn't get to see the manta rays, but I had a great experience. マンタと会えなかったがいい経験をしました

Reviewed by: アワテンボウのテンショウ

This time, we went to a point where we could encounter manta rays, but due to the rough sea conditions, the captain wisely decided to return to port. I hope we have another opportunity in the future. However, it was a good experience.

Upon arriving at Honokohau Harbor, we received explanations from a Japanese guide, and I put on a wetsuit for the first time and got ready for snorkeling. I was excited as it felt like the adventure was about to begin. There were about 20 participants, including foreign tourists. We took pictures in our wetsuits. Finally, we set sail. Along the way, we enjoyed the scenery after the sunset. The boat kicked up the rough waves, with sudden drops and rises, and everyone was letting out laughter mixed with screams? It felt just like a roller coaster.

When we reached the point, several boats were already shining their lights, aiming for the manta rays. Our captain carefully navigated the boat, observing the other vessels and communicating to gather information about the manta rays. Unfortunately, it seemed that there were very few manta rays today, and due to the rough waves, we were advised to return to port to avoid fatigue from being in the water.

The tour company had mentioned before departure that, due to the nature of the wild, they couldn't guarantee sightings at the point, so there were no complaints from anyone. However, they kindly explained that we could attempt again for free since we didn't see any manta rays, which I thought was very considerate of the tour company (even though they incurred costs for fuel, drinks, and snacks...). We had another schedule, so we couldn't attempt again this time, but I hope there will be a chance in the future. I am grateful to Veltra and the tour company, Dolphin Hawaii, for providing such a great experience.

今回はマンタと出会えるポイント迄行きましたが海の荒れ状況から船長の賢明なる判断で帰港せざる得なく、またの機会があればなぁと思っております。
でもいい経験が出来ました。
ホノウコウハーバーに到着し、日本人には日本人ガイドさんより説明を受け、初めてのウェットスーツを着てシュノーケリングを付けました。いよいよ始まるって感じでワクワクです。外人観光客も含め約２０名の参加者です。ウェットスーツ姿の写真を撮り合ってます。いよいよ出航です。途中、夕陽が沈んだ後の景色を見ながらの航行です。船は荒波を蹴り、急降下、急上昇あり、皆は笑いを伴う悲鳴？を発してます。まるでジェットコースターの気分。ポイントに着くと十数隻の船が既にライトを照らしマンタを狙っています。私たちの船長は慎重に船を進め他の船の様子を伺い連絡を取リあってマンタの情報を得ています。どうも本日はマンタの数も大変少なく波も荒い為、私たちが海に浸かることにより疲れが生じることから中止、帰港となりました。
催行会社としては出航する前から自然界のことだからポイントに行く迄見れる保証は出来ない旨、話されていたので誰からもクレームは出なかったです。
でも見れなかった代わりに再度の挑戦を無料で実施する旨、説明有り何て良心的な催行会社だろうと思いました(油代、飲料費、お菓子など費用は使っているのに・・・。）私たちは次のスケジュールもあり再挑戦を今回は出来ませんが何時かは分かりませんがもしチャンスがあればそれまでお預けです。ベルトラさん、催行会社のイルカ・ハワイ社にいい体験が出来、感謝しております。
