All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

The captain and his companion were very nice answering all our questions. It was a windy day, so our family were the only ones on the boat, we saw some fishes and lots of corals, and learned some new things about different fish in Hawaii. The turtles were kond of hiding thought, but the captain made every effort on finding at least one for us, so we got to see it on the surface taking a few breaths.

Thank you,

I was moved to see wild dolphins!! The person steering the boat anticipates the dolphins' direction, which I found impressive. They provide solid support, so even those who are snorkeling for the first time will be fine. I would love to repeat this experience when I visit the island again!

野生のイルカが見れて感動！！
ボートを操縦される方がイルカの進行方向を先取りするので凄いなーと感心しました。
サポートもしっかりしてくださるのでシュノーケル初めての方でも大丈夫です。
また来島した際にはリピートしたいです！

We participated as a couple. The boat had people from various countries, not just Japanese. There were about two Japanese couples. There were mostly Caucasian people. Although the weather was nice that day, there were really few plankton to serve as bait, so we only managed to see them towards the very end. We had to stay in the water the whole time, which made it quite tough as our bodies got cold. I think it would be better to wear a long wetsuit and to go in good health.

夫婦で参加しました。船は、日本人だけでなくいろんな国の人と一緒です。日本人は２組くらい。白人系の人が多かったです。この日は天気はよかったものの、餌となるプランクトンが少なかったということで本当に最後のほうにようやく会えたかんじでした。
ずーっと水にはいっていなければならなかったので体が冷えてかなりきつかった。スエットスーツの長いのを着ていった方が良いと思いますし、体調万全で行った方が良いと思います。

It was a large boat, so I didn't mind the rocking. It probably depends on the sea conditions, but last year, when my mother participated in a different tour, she got seasick and had to sit out. This time, she finished her hamburger for lunch. At the snorkeling point, we encountered a sea turtle. On the way back, dolphins chased the boat.

I recommend the pricing for accompanying passengers. Even if snorkeling isn't possible, it's great for families who want to enjoy cruising together.

大きな船なので、船揺れが気になりませんでした。
海のコンディションにもよるのでしょうが、去年別のツアーに参加した際は船酔いでダウンしていた母が、今回はランチのハンバーガーを完食していました。
シュノーケルポイントではウミガメと遭遇。帰路はイルカが船を追いかけてきました。
同乗者料金の設定があるもお勧めポイント。
シュノーケルは無理でも、クルージングは同行したい家族連れに嬉しいですね。

There is a lot of fish under the sea! Wonderful experience!

The tour itself was incredibly exciting. However, personally, I almost experienced altitude sickness. I had quite a bit of headache and shortness of breath, but after returning to the hotel and sleeping, I felt better right away. Even with the risk of altitude sickness, I think it's a tour worth going on. The starry sky and sunset are both wonderful.

ツアー自体は最高にエキサイティングでした。
が、私個人のことなのですが高山病になりかけました。かなりの頭痛と息苦しさを少し発症してしまいましたが、ホテルに帰り、眠るとすぐ治りました。
高山病になりかけても、行くべき価値のあるツアーだと思います。
星空もサンセットも素晴らしいです。

There were interesting parts, like digging up the pig, but the prices felt too high. The fire dance at Fukushima's Hawaiians is much better. The food wasn't delicious. Also, it rained during our visit, and we got soaked. The hotel parking is only free for three hours. If it were around 5,000 yen, I could somewhat recommend it.

豚を掘り起こすところなど、面白い部分もありましたが、値段が高過ぎな印象です。
ファイアーダンスは、福島のハワイアンズの方がすごいです。
ご飯は、美味しくはありません。
また、途中で雨が降り、びしょ濡れでした。
ホテル駐車場は三時間までしか無料ではありません。
もし5000円とかなら、それなりにオススメできる内容でした。

I could see the magnificent history of volcanoes from the past known only to the creator of the Earth up to today, June 27, 2019. The overlapping rivers created by the old and new lava flows from Kilauea, swallowing everything—human activities, roads, and fields—what incredible power. I could see how the lava flows that poured into the sea expanded this island. The awe of nature's power is evident. And the black sand beach that formed is perhaps a joke-filled gift from the gods to humanity. Next, at Kobaruyama, time transformed the lava into fertile soil that nurtures lush trees, and erosion created breathtaking canyons and waterfalls that drop 400 meters—these stunning views were experienced by the helicopter guests. Finally, the awareness and proactivity of the island's people in coexisting with the volcanoes, as shared by pilot Mochizuki, will likely stay with me for life, as I lead a rather ordinary existence. Moreover, this first helicopter tour of my life allowed me to witness the Earth's activities from a bird's-eye view. It may sound a bit exaggerated, but it changed my perspective on life.

地球の創造者しか知り得ない過去から2019.06.27の今日に至るまでの火山が織り成す壮大な歴史が見えた。キラウエアから生まれた新旧の溶岩流が作り出す重なり合った川、人の営み、道路、畑、すべてを呑み込んで流れた様子、なんという偉力。そして海に流れ込んだ溶岩流がこの島を広げていった様子が一望できる。自然の力の凄さが見える。そしてとったんに出来た黒砂海岸は神さまから人へのジョーク交じりのプレゼントか。次に小原山、時間は溶岩を緑豊かな木々を育む土へと変え、また浸食によって絶景を織り成す渓谷や400mから落ちる滝、これら身震いをしてしまう景色をヘリのゲストは味わった。最後に望月パイロットが語れたこの島の人達の火山との共存意識とその積極性は平凡な日常しか無い私の耳から生涯離れそうもない。それどころかこの人生初のヘリコプター遊覧は地球の営みを鳥の目線で目の当たりに出来た。少し大袈裟かもしれないが人生観を変えた。

My partner who does hula also said it was great. The women dancing were local beauties. Additionally, the fire show was impressive.

フラをやっているパートナーも善かったと言っていました。
踊っている女性が現地美人でした。
また、ファイアーショーも迫力がありました。

We participated as a couple on our honeymoon trip. Fortunately, we encountered dolphins shortly after setting sail on the boat! We were able to see these wild dolphins up close, which I thought I could only see in an aquarium. It was moving to hear the sounds of dolphins that I had only heard on television! There were times when the dolphins would swim away to take a break, but our guide, Ray, and the captain made an effort to ensure that participants had as much time as possible to interact with the dolphins. I think even those who are not good swimmers can enjoy the experience with the solid support from the guides. I could feel the love for dolphins from both Mr. Nawa and guide Ray, and I definitely want to join this tour again.

ハネムーン旅行で夫婦で参加しました。幸運なことにボートで出航して後すぐにイルカに遭遇！水族館でしか見られないと思っていた自然のイルカを間近に見ることが出来ました。テレビでしか聞いたことがないイルカの声も聴くことができ感動です！途中イルカが休憩するために離れるしまうこともありましたが、ガイドのレイさん船長さんは参加者が少しでもイルカと触れ合える時間を作れるように努力してくださっていました。また泳ぎが苦手な人でもガイドの方がしっかりサポートして下さるので安心して楽しめると思います。縄田さん、ガイドのレイさんからはイルカの愛が感じられ、ぜひまたこのツアーに参加したいと思いました。

The boat was rocking violently, and my partner got seasick. The meals didn't suit Japanese tastes at all. This tour seems to be aimed at Westerners with strong stamina. Also, it costs $210 for a round trip by taxi from Hilton Waikoloa. While I take full responsibility for mistakenly booking this thinking it was a dinner cruise in Oahu, I think it would be considerate to mention the level of rocking and the time and transportation options from each resort to the port.

船の揺れが激しく、パートナー撃沈。食事も日本人に全く合いません。強靭な体力を持った欧米人向けのツアーですね。また、ヒルトンワイコロアからは、タクシーで往復210ドルかかります。全ての責任は、オアフ島のディナークルーズと勘違いして申し込んだ当方にありますが、出来れば、それなりに揺れること、また、各リゾートからの港までの時間と交通手段を書いておいてあげると親切かと思います。

Our driver was very nice and knowledgeable. The trip was short but very pleasant.

Our family had a great time on this horse ride through the peaceful Waipi'o valley. We learned a lot about it from our very knowledgeable guides (they are also residents of the valley!). No riding experience is necessary but our 11 y.o. daughter has taken lessons, and we've done a few other, similar tours. It's all just walking pace (no trotting) but you go through small rivers and streams and see some beautiful vegetation and waterfalls. We were so glad not to have to walk the steep and dangerous path from the main (paved) road down to the valley floor where the stable is. The view from the top is spectacular! We went during an unusually dry and hot spell, so if you go after a rainfall, I'm sure it's even more incredible. What's especially nice is the tour is small (our group was 10 people), so you get highly personalized attention. Be sure to bring water, sunscreen, and bugspray! All in all, I would highly recommend.

We experienced this in mid-June as a couple in our 50s. The instructor, Chris, only speaks English, but the basic movements are simple: Right paddle, Left paddle, and Back paddle (for stopping or turning), so I don't think the language barrier is a big issue. He is a really friendly Hawaiian. He’s a big guy who competes in canoe races from the Big Island to Maui. He teaches very thoroughly.

He gives about 15 minutes of instruction, and then you paddle on your own to get the hang of it. On the day we tried it, there was a bit of wind, and we were quickly brought back to the beach, so it was a little challenging at first. However, after about 30 minutes, I was able to perform the basic movements, and it became incredibly fun. In the end, we paddled about 800 meters away from the beach and then returned.

While you might fall off the SUP (but you can easily climb back on), it's done in a calm beach setting, and since it's not surfing, you won't get overwhelmed by waves.

The SUP has strong buoyancy and floats well. Beginners start by getting on the board. I began in a kneeling position. You enter the water from the sandy beach, and although there are beachgoers, including children, Chris guides you well, so it's fine. Once you grasp the balance, standing up isn't difficult. We gathered at 10:15 and enjoyed a solid 90 minutes from 10:30 to 12:00. In the latter half, I was mostly paddling while standing. If you get tired, you can switch to kneeling or sit cross-legged to rest. You won’t drift away (the tide brings you back to the beach even if you do nothing).

There are no lockers on the beach, so I recommend going with minimal belongings. We drove to the beach and brought pool towels borrowed from our hotel. There are no changing facilities, so wear your swimsuit. Make sure to apply sunscreen generously.

Afterward, there’s a communal water shower in front of the restroom, so I quickly rinsed off (no one was shampooing). I dried off a bit and quickly changed in the restroom (the Sea Breeze spray was super helpful for feeling fresh). Women might want to tie their hair up, and a sun visor is useful.

I tipped 20% of the payment, and he seemed very happy with it.

One thing to note is that when you climb back onto the SUP after falling, if you do it too vigorously, your pants might come off, so be careful about that...

Afterward, it might be nice to relax on the beach. On that day, children from a nearby kindergarten were having a picnic in the shade under the guidance of their teacher.

6月中旬に夫婦（50代）で体験しました。インストラクター（Chris)さんは英語しかできませんが、基本動作はRight paddle（右でパドル）、Left paddle（左でパドル）、Back paddle（停止する際や、回転する際に）ぐらいなので、英語はあまり気にすることはないとおもいます。ハワイ人のすっごく気のいいひとです。ご本人はハワイ島からマウイ島までカヌーで渡る競技をしちゃう、ごっつい兄さんです。とてもしっかり教えてくれます。

15分ぐらい教えてくれるのであとは自分でひたすら漕いで覚えます。体験した当日はすこし風があり、すぐにビーチに戻されてしまうので、最初はすこし苦労しましたが、開始30分後には基本動作もできるようになりめちゃくちゃ楽しく、結局ビーチから800mぐらい離れた地点まで行って戻ってきました。

SUPから落ちることはあれど（すぐによじ登れますよ）、穏やかなビーチでやるのと、サーフィンではないので波にのまれるようなことは決してないです。

SUPの浮力は強く、がっちり浮かんでくれます。初心者はまず最初は乗るところからです。私は膝をついたポジションから始めました。砂浜から入水していくわけですが、周囲には子供を含めて海水浴客がいますがクリスがうまく誘導してくれるので大丈夫です。バランスのコツをつかめば立ち上がるのも難しくはありません。10：15集合、10：30-12：00まで90分がっちり楽しみました。後半はほとんど立って漕いでいました。疲れたら膝立ちになればいいし、正座して休むのもいいでしょう。沖に流されることはないです（何もしなくてもビーチに戻っちゃう感じの潮目です）。

ビーチにロッカーはありませんので最小限の荷物で行くことをお勧めします。我々は車でビーチまでいきましたので、ビーチにはホテルで借りたプールタオルをもっていきました。着替える場所はありませんので、水着着用で行きます。日焼け止めはがっちり塗っていきましょう。

終わったらトイレの前に共同の水シャワーがあるので、それをさっと浴びました（シャンプーする人なんかいません）。適当にふいてトイレでパパっと着替えて帰りました（シーブリーズのスプレーが超役立ちました、さっぱりします）。女性は髪の毛をくくるといいでしょう。サンバイザーも役立ちます。

チップは支払い代金の20％をお渡ししました。喜んでくれました。

注意事項があるとすれば、SUPから落ちてしまった後によじ上るとき「エイっ」勢いよくあがるとパンツが脱げちゃうので、そこはご注意でしょうか…

終わったあと、ビーチでのんびりするのもいいかもしれませんね。当日は近所の幼稚園の子供たちが先生に引率されて木陰でピクニックしていました。

We participated as a three-generation family.
The submarine itself was great!
We were able to comfortably see the seabed!
However, the person who picked us up from our accommodation didn't provide much explanation about the meeting point...
(They did inform us of the pickup time multiple times.)
Since there was no information on this page or the voucher, I had to ask around and make phone calls to manage to board...
I would appreciate it if you could enhance the explanation regarding the meeting point! Please consider this.

3世代で参加しました。
潜水艦そのものは良かったです！
快適に海底を見ることが出来ました！
しかしながら、宿泊場所から送ってくださった方から集合場所について説明があまりなく…
（お迎え時間は何度もお伝えいただいたんですが）
こちらのページやバウチャーにも記載がなかったため、聞きまわったり電話したりしてなんとか乗船できた感じでした…
集合場所についての説明を充実させていただければありがたいです！ぜひご検討ください。

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.

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。

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！)

My boys enjoyed the snorkeling, cliff diving, and the caves.

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。
ガイドのレイさん、スタッフのみなさんのの心遣いも素晴らしかったです。
ありがとうございました！

The guide was very kind, and it was a fun time! The talk and the photography were full of enthusiasm and it was really great. The cocoa made under the starry sky was very delicious and warming! The bento wasn't very tasty, though > < (I'm sorry...)

ガイドの方がとても親切で楽しいひと時でした！
トークも撮影もサービス精神旺盛でとてもよかったです。
星空の下で作ってくださったココアがとてもおいしくて温まりました！
お弁当はあまりおいしくなかったです＞＜（すみません…）

I was really impressed when the manta rays turned right in front of me multiple times!

I wonder if it would have been even more fun to swim with them, but since it was night, the chances of getting lost increase, so it might be difficult?

But it was so much fun! I highly recommend it, so if you come to Hawaii, definitely check it out!!

マンタが目の前で何度もターンをしてくれてすごく感動しました！

一緒に泳げるともっと楽しかったのかなぁと思いましたが、夜なので遭難になる確率があがるから難しいのかな？

でも、すごく楽しかったです！オススメなので、ハワイに来た際はぜひ！！

I had a great time riding horses and crossing the river while enjoying nature. The horses were so cute! It might be a good idea to bring insect repellent!

馬に乗って川を渡ったり、自然を満喫出来て楽しかったです。
馬がとても可愛かった〜
虫除けを持っていくといいかも！

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、
滑走路跡地を駆け抜けたりと、とてもユニークな体験になった。
夕方から体験できるアクティビティなのも良かった。
ビーチに寄ったり、夕日を見たりと、結構充実している。
体験している様子を同行していてる社長さんが撮影してくれていて、
見事な動画に仕上げてくれた。
写真もいっぱい撮っていてくれて、いい思い出になりました。

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。

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!!

今回の新婚旅行で、一番の楽しみにしていたアクティビティでした。
期待通り、というか期待を大きく上回ってとっても楽しくて忘れられないツアーでした！
ガイドのだいすけさん、イルカと通じ合っていてそして誰よりも一番イルカを知っているすごいお方…！
船長の指示を折り曲げてもう1回トライさせてくれちゃうくらい、その日のツアー参加者より誰よりも楽しんでおられるキラキラした方でした(笑)
でも、そんなお気持ちが私たち参加者には嬉しくて、とても貴重な体験ができたと思います！
かなりの数のイルカがいてくれた時だったそうで、海面に顔を入れた瞬間のあの景色はずっと忘れません！
ほかのスタッフさんもみなさんフレンドリーで素敵な方々ばかりでした！
一緒に参加した方々と一緒になって素敵な時間を過ごせました。
本当にありがとうございました！
またハワイ島を訪れることができたら、ぜひまた参加したいです！！

I was worried because it was cloudy on the day, but by night it cleared up, and I was able to see the starry sky, which was my main goal! The guide was knowledgeable about cameras and taught us how to take great photos of the night sky.

当日曇っていたので不安だったのですが、夜になったら晴れ、一番の目的だった満天の星空を見ることができました！ガイドさんがカメラに詳しく、星空を上手に撮る方法を教えてくださいました。

The guides where friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The area was gorgeous, pictures do not do it justice. The horses knew what they were doing so it was simple for all levels of riding. I highly recommend anyone on the Big Island to make the trip to tour Waipio Valley!

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！
