ハワイ島　昼と夜の世界遺産キラウエア火山国立公園の見学とコーヒー農園でのテイスティングもあり＜昼・夕食付／英語ガイド／コナまたはワイコロア地区発＞

There are no nighttime attractions, so be careful! 夜の観光はありませんので、要注意！

Reviewed by: Tourbillon

After leaving the hotel, we had lunch at Punalu'u Bake Shop. There is a small shop and restrooms available. We enjoyed the lunch we ordered and then set off. At Black Sand Beach, we saw a few sea turtles. After that, we stopped by a Kona coffee shop, but there were no small souvenirs available, so we decided not to buy anything. They do offer various samples for tasting.

Finally, we entered the Volcano National Park. We took a short break at the Kīlauea Visitor Center. They informed us about souvenir magnets, restrooms, and smoking areas, so we took a moment to relax. We visited the Kilauea Overlook to see the crater. There was a bit of smoke rising, but there was no eruption. Apparently, it was impressive last year, and we were shown some videos. We enjoyed watching the steam vents releasing smoke for a bit. After that, we were guided to several spots within the national park. We ended with a break at Volcano House Hotel.

After that, there was supposed to be dinner and a night tour... but it didn't happen. We returned to the hotel, and it seems there are no night tours currently since there is no eruption. If you expect a night tour when booking this tour, you might be disappointed, so please be cautious. If you're hoping for a night experience, I think it's better to check in advance with a place that can accommodate you in Japanese. Overall, it was nice to get a general tour of Kīlauea Volcano.

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック＆シュノーケルツアー　海中洞窟探検プランあり　＜早朝・午前／日本語ガイド＞by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

Enjoying the sea in Hawaii. ハワイの海を堪能

Reviewed by: Tourbillon

About 15 minutes ago, I took an Uber to the meeting point, and the guide was waiting for us. In Hawaii, I was able to catch an Uber even at 6 AM without any issues. I think it's a good idea to check the app a bit before you head out. After dropping off valuables and a change of clothes, I put my phone in the waterproof bag and set off.

We arrived at the kayak launch area right away. I wore flip-flops, but since it's not a beach, I think marine shoes would be better. We boarded the kayak from the rocky area. From there, we kayaked for about an hour and a half, entering a cave along the way. After that, we snorkeled for about an hour. We were able to see large sea urchins and various fish while circling around. Since there was quite a bit of time, it might be good to have an underwater camera to take your own pictures.

We kayaked back for an hour, and that concluded the tour. There’s a shower or a water tap where you can wash off just a few minutes' walk from the kayak launch area. You can change clothes in the nearby restroom. The day before, when I confirmed over the phone, the guide mentioned that they would take pictures, but unfortunately, the guide had to be replaced due to health issues, so I couldn't get any photos. However, I really enjoyed experiencing the Hawaiian sea.

15分くらい前にUberで集合場所へ行くと、ガイドの方が待ってくれていました。
ハワイ島のUberは、6時台でも普通に捕まりました。
出る前に、ちょっとアプリで確認しつつ出発すると良いと思います。
貴重品や着替えなどの荷物を預けて、借りた防水バックに携帯を入れて出発。
すぐにカヤック乗り場です。
ビーチサンダルで行きましたが、ビーチではないので、マリンシューズに方が良いと思います。
岩場からカヤックに乗り込みます。
そっから、1時間半程度カヤック、途中に洞窟に入ったりします。
そこから1時間程度のシュノーケリング。
ぐるぐる回って、大きなウニや色々な魚を鑑賞出来ました。
結構時間があるので、自分で撮れる水中カメラがあると良いかも知れません。
戻りでカヤック1時間で、ツアー終了です。
カヤック乗り場から見える、歩いて数分の所にある港にシャワー？と言うか、浴びれる水道があるので、そこで体を洗えます。
着替えは、その近くのトイレで行う感じです。
前日、電話で確認した際は、ガイドの方が写真を撮ってくれるとの事でしたが、体調不良でガイドの方が交代したようで、残念ながら写真は取って貰えず。
ただ、ハワイの海を堪能出来たのは楽しかったです。

Legends of Hawaii Luau Dinner Show with Open Bar at Hilton Waikoloa Village

Great way to start your Hawaiian Vacation

Reviewed by: sassyn2002

So from other reviews you know the lines are long, especially in the heat. Now they have water fountains, and it does move semi quickly. But it would make sense to have the vip's seated 1st, then the GA seats enter by sections.

This would help with standing in the sun for to long.

The show it self was fantastic! Very entertaining, and kept you wanting more.

My only gripe, is that I am diabetic, and needed to eat sooner than later, and since I was the last table to be sat, we were the last table to be approved to get up to the Buffet. Also there was no sugar free desserts. Other than that the foods I was able to eat was delicious and flavorful. But I did end up in the restroom for most of the evening once returned back to the room. Could have been that some foods were in the temp danger zone for to long.

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　 レジェンズ・オブ・ハワイ（ヒルトンワイコロアビレッジ）＜日・火・金催行／ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題＞

Enjoying the traditional Luau & Hula Hawaiian show for the first time in five years! 5年ぶりの伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショーをエンジョイ‼️

Reviewed by: seiさん

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I couldn't travel to Hawaii in 2020 and 2021, but I resumed my trips to Oahu in 2022 and 2023, and this time, it was my first trip to the Big Island in five years. As usual, I stayed at the Hilton resort in the Waikoloa area, but I felt that I couldn't truly experience the Big Island without seeing the traditional luau and hula Hawaiian show, which I also hadn't seen in five years. On the day of the event, it started drizzling, and as we transitioned from the first traditional hula show to dinner, the staff quickly distributed vinyl raincoats. By the time the Polynesian dancers' torch-lit group dance reached its peak, the rain had turned into a light mist, and most of the audience removed their raincoats. With the host's lively lead, the audience became one with the show and was filled with excitement. However, perhaps due to the rainy weather from the start, the program was moved up, and the audience participation hula was skipped, which was a bit disappointing.

コロナ禍で2020、2021年はハワイに行けなかったが、2022、2023年とオアフ島(ホノルル)で旅行を再開して、今回、5年ぶりのハワイ島旅行となった。いつもの様にワイコロア地区のヒルトンのリゾートに滞在したが、やはり伝統のルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショーを見ないとハワイ島に来た感じがしないと思い、これも5年ぶりの観覧となった。当日はスタートから小雨模様で、最初の伝統フラのショーから食事に切り替わる頃に、スタッフが手早くビニルのレインコートを配ってまわり、ポリネシアンダンサーのトーチを使った集団ダンスが佳境に入る頃には雨も細かい霧雨に変わり、観客の殆どがレインコートを脱ぎ去り、司会者の軽妙なリードで会場が一体となってショーに熱狂した。今回、スタートから雨模様のためか、プログラムの進行が全て前倒しで進められ、観客参加のフラがスキップされたりしたのが少々、残念であった。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック＆シュノーケルツアー　海中洞窟探検プランあり　＜早朝・午前／日本語ガイド＞by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

It was fun! 楽しかった！

Reviewed by: まさひ

I went to the location with my wife and son in a rental car. We parked on the street, but be careful of no-parking zones. Before 7:00, we were approached by our Japanese guide, Noni, who helped us complete the procedures and we started right away. After doing some warm-up exercises and learning how to paddle a sea kayak, we finally entered the sea to begin kayaking. Since it was the first time for all three of us, we were worried about whether we could paddle well and if our stamina would hold up, but Noni observed us and provided guidance and breaks as needed, so we managed to paddle safely. In the sea caves, the waves crashed and the roar from deep inside was impressive. Noni made sure to warn us if we got too close to dangerous areas, so we felt safe throughout the kayaking experience. At the snorkeling point, we were able to see various small fish. I wished I had studied the types of fish beforehand. The view of the Big Island from the sea was spectacular, and we were able to take many wonderful photos. Along the way, Noni also shared stories about the island's history and gourmet information, which made it really enjoyable! I highly recommend it!

妻と息子と三人でレンタカーで現地へ行きました。路駐しますが駐車禁止帯に注意。7：00前に日本人ガイドのノニさんに声をかけられて手続きを済ませさっそく開始。準備運動をしてシーカヤックの漕ぎ方を習った後、海に入っていよいよシーカヤック開始。三人とも初めてだったので上手く漕げるか、体力がもつか心配でしたが、ノニさんが我々の様子をみて随時、指導・休憩をしてくれたので無事漕ぎきりました。海中洞窟では波が打ち寄せてドパーンと奥からの咆哮が迫力でした。うっかり危険なエリア近づくとノニさんはちゃんと注意してくれて終始安心してシーカヤックができました。シュノーケルポイントでは様々な小魚を見ることができました。魚の種類を勉強していけば良かったと思いました。海から見るビッグアイランドも壮観で、すてきな写真もたくさん撮ってもらえました。途中では島の歴史やグルメ情報などの話もしていただいて凄く楽しめました！おすすめです！

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー　滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く！＜午前・午後／英語ガイド／食事付＞by フェアウィンド号

Kealakekua Bay snorkeling ケアラケクア湾シュノーケル

Reviewed by: イトーさん

The staff speaks entirely in English, so I feel that listening skills in English are necessary. However, that also gives a sense of being in Hawaii, which is okay.

The snorkeling points are indeed beautiful, but I expected them to be clearer. Still, I think first-time snorkelers would be satisfied. It might be that the sea was rough due to rain the day before. I feel that the clarity of the sea increases when the sunny days continue.

There is plenty of time for snorkeling, and families with children can enjoy it a lot. There are also plenty of floatation devices, so kids can focus on snorkeling without the risk of drowning, which is reassuring.

The staff's service is perfect. Their response makes you want to give a tip. The meals on the boat are made with healthy ingredients, so I felt safe eating them. The operation was such that it was hard to get seasick.

スタッフが全て英語会話なので、英語のヒアリング力が必要な気がする。それもまたハワイ島に来た感じがしてオッケーな気もする。
シュノーケルポイントは確かに綺麗だが、
もっと透き通る綺麗さかと思っていたが、そうでもなかった。が、初めてのシュノーケルなら満足すると思う。もしかすると前日に雨が降った為、海が荒れていたのかも知らない。晴れの日が続くと海の綺麗さ増す気がする。
シュノーケルをする時間はたっぷりあり、子連れはかなり楽しめます。浮き輪なども充実しており、子供も溺れることなく、シュノーケルに集中出来るので安心。
スタッフのサービスは完璧。チップを渡したくなる対応だった。
船の食事は健康的な食材で、安心して食べれた。
船酔いはしにくい運航だった。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック＆シュノーケルツアー　海中洞窟探検プランあり　＜早朝・午前／日本語ガイド＞by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

70% kayaking and 30% snorkeling. カヤック7割シュノーケリング3割

Reviewed by: ねこくん

We had a great time kayaking as a couple for the first time. Meeting at 7 AM was early for us coming from Waikoloa, but we were relieved to be easily found near the meeting point upon arrival. After receiving instructions on how to operate the kayak and doing some warm-up exercises from Noni, we quickly got into the kayaks and started our activities. The waves were high that day, so we couldn't enter the caves, and getting close was thrilling as we had to navigate the strong waves. We continued to enjoy kayaking, and at the end, we went snorkeling. The snorkeling was done after getting off the kayak. Due to the waves and our energy being spent on kayaking, we only snorkeled a little near the bay. It takes quite a bit of energy, so I was fine with about 30% snorkeling, but if you expect snorkeling to be the main activity, you might be disappointed. Depending on the weather, the plan can change, but for us, it was about 70% kayaking and 30% snorkeling. During a break from kayaking, we visited a hamburger place that Noni recommended, and it was delicious and impressive. Thanks to Noni's guidance, we had a wonderful time. By the way, there are no changing rooms or showers, so we changed in the car and went back to the hotel to shower.

初めてのカヤックで夫婦で楽しい時間を過ごしました。朝7時集合はワイコロアから移動の我々には朝早かったですが、到着したら集合場所付近ですぐ発見されて良かったです。ノニさんからカヤックの操作説明と準備運動をしてから、早速カヤックに乗り、しばらくカヤックでの活動です。当日は波が高く洞窟の中は入れず、近づくと波が高いので一進一退でスリル満点でした。その後もカヤックで楽しみ、最後にシュノーケリングします。シュノーケリングは乗っているカヤックから降りてします。当日は波があり、我々の体力もカヤックで消費していたので、湾の近くで少しだけシュノーケリングしました。体力を結構使うので、私はシュノーケリング3割くらいで良かったですが、シュノーケリングメインと思って、参加するとガッカリかもです。当日の天候により臨機応変になるとのことですが、我々はカヤック7割シュノーケリング3割くらいでした。カヤックの休憩中にノニさんに教えてもらったハンバーガー屋さんに後日、行ったら美味しくて感動しました。ノニさんのガイドのおかげで我々はとても楽しかったです。ちなみに、着替えもシャワーもないので、車の中で着替えてホテルに戻ってシャワーを浴びる感じです。

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＞

A snorkeling tour on a boat that is accessible for wheelchair users!♪ 車椅子でも乗れる船でシュノーケリングツアー♪

Reviewed by: Lei

I participated with my husband, who uses a wheelchair, and our sons, who are in fifth and second grade. The deciding factor for us to sign up was the large boat that allows wheelchair access. Since I used to dive a lot during my student days, I wanted my children to experience snorkeling and dolphin watching at accessible points by boat, but it was quite challenging with a wheelchair. I was very happy that we could go this way.

However, the meeting time was early in the morning, and we had to leave the hotel by 6 AM to drive from Waikoloa, which made my sons look sleepy the whole time. That was a bit disappointing. Still, the snorkel, mask, and fins we borrowed were comfortable, and despite it being their first time snorkeling in open water, they weren't scared at all and had a lot of fun. They also loved the noodle, a long floating device. (My husband wasn't feeling well and didn't snorkel, so I'm not sure if he would have supported them if they had wanted to.)

The kids wore life vests, and I only had the noodle, but it was enough to keep me afloat. The fish at the snorkeling spot were honestly fewer in variety compared to places like Okinawa, but I think it was a good experience for the kids' first time.

We also saw dolphins on the way there! We had breakfast (a variety of breads, fruits, and yogurt) before snorkeling, and during the snorkeling time, we could come up whenever we wanted to eat the hamburgers for lunch. The taro chips served at lunch were a favorite of the kids.

On the way back, we had a longer cruise away from the coast to look for big animals (dolphins, whales, mantas, etc.). Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any, but the cookies they handed out during that time were delicious, and my younger son asked for seconds.

It was a half-day tour, but it became a very enjoyable memory! If I could wish for something, I think a tour with a later meeting time and just lunch would be better. By the way, my children and I took motion sickness medication, so we didn't get seasick. My husband seemed a bit unwell, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication just in case, even for those who usually don't get seasick!

車椅子の夫と小学5年生、2年生の息子たちと参加しました。
申し込みの決め手は車椅子のまま乗り込むことができる大型の船、ということでした。
私自身は学生時代ダイビング三昧だったので、船に乗って行けるポイントでのシュノーケリングやイルカウォッチングは子供たちにも体験してほしいことでしたが、車椅子にはなかなかハードルが高く。。今回このような形で行けてとても嬉しかったです。
ただ、集合時間が朝早く、Waikoloaから運転して行くため6時台にはホテルを出なければならず、息子たちは終始眠そうだったのが残念ポイント。。
それでも、貸していただけたシュノーケル＆マスクとフィンが快適で、初めてのオープンウォーターでのシュノーケリングであったにも関わらず全然怖がらず、二人ともとても楽しんでいました。ヌードルという、細長～い浮き具もお気に入りでした。（今回夫は体調もさほど優れずシュノーケリングはしなかったため、やりたいと言えばサポートしてくれたのかどうかは不明です）
子供たちはライフベストを着用、私はこのヌードルだけでしたが、充分浮いていられました。ポイントのお魚は、正直沖縄などよりは種類も少なかったですが、子供たちの初めての体験としてはよかったと思います。
行き帰りにイルカも見られました！
行きに朝食（何種類かのパンと果物やヨーグルトなど）を食べて、シュノーケリングの時間中好きな時に上がって来て昼食のハンバーガーを食べる、という感じでした。昼食で出たタロイモチップスが子供たちのお気に入りでした。
帰りは大物（イルカ、クジラ、マンタなど？）を見つけるために、行きより海岸から離れての長めのクルーズでした。残念ながら遭遇はできませんでしたが、この時間に配ってくれたクッキーが美味しくて、次男はおかわりしていました。笑
半日のツアーでしたが、とても楽しい思い出になりました！
欲を言えば、集合時間遅めのランチだけのツアーがよいかな、と思いました。
ちなみに私と子供たちは酔い止めを飲んで行ったせいか船酔いはしませんでした。夫は少し気分が悪そうでしたので、普段酔わない方も念のため酔い止めをお勧めします！

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＞

You can check the boarding dates of Japanese staff on the website of Manta University. マンタ大学のHPで日本人スタッフの乗船日を確認できます

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was worried about the high prices due to the weak yen, but I chose this plan because it has Japanese staff and allows participation for elderly people as well. I confirmed the days when Japanese staff would be on board in advance on the official Manta University website before making my reservation. The day before, about 20 mantas showed up, but on the day of our participation, there were only 3 or 4. However, the sight of them opening their mouths wide and doing flips up close was a wonderful experience that you can't have in other regions. The Japanese staff provided excellent support, and I was grateful that they shared the manta images taken with the GoPro. However, it seems that participating as an observer didn't have much meaning, so it might be fine to wait at the hotel instead (I'm not sure if waiting at the store is possible, but I wouldn't recommend it since it would be unattended). We used Uber for the round trip, but on the return, we waited about 20 minutes in the darkness, with only the faint light from the store reaching us. If you can tolerate that, there were no problems at all. Depending on the location of the hotel, plans with transportation can be quite expensive. By the way, we were the only ones using Uber.

円安で高いため悩みましたが、小学校低学年の子供と参加するため、日本人スタッフがいる点、また，高齢者も居るため、見学参加できる点でこのプランを選びました。日本人スタッフが乗船する曜日は予めマンタ大学の公式サイトで確認してから申し込みました。前日は20枚ほどのマンタがきてくれたそうですが、参加日は3、4枚でした。が、近くで大きく口を開けてクルクル宙返りをくりかえす様子は、他の地域では体験できない素晴らしい時間でした。日本人スタッフが甲斐甲斐しくサポートをしてくださったし、GOproで撮ったマンタの画像を共有してくださり、有り難かったです。ただし、見学参加はあまり意味がなかったようですので、ホテル待機でも良さそうです（店舗での待機が可能かはわかりませんが、無人になるのでオススメしません）。往復ウーバータクシーにしましたが、復路は、店舗の灯りがほのかに届くだけの暗闇で20分ほど配車を待ちました。それを許容できるのであれば、全く問題はなかったです。ホテルの場所によっては送迎付きプランはかなり高くつくので。ちなみにウーバー利用は私たちだけでした。

You will receive an email asking for signatures regarding participation in advance, so make sure to fill it out for all participants. We attended as a pair, but I forgot to fill out one person's information, so we had to do it on the day of the event.

Also, at the meeting point, it seems that another tour group gathers at the same time, so it's safer to confirm that you are in the right group. (At first, we went to where people were gathering, and since our names weren't called, we confirmed and found out it was a different tour.)

It was okay not to speak English. I couldn't catch most of what was said because it was fast, but the staff were cheerful and kind, so it worked out.

Sunscreen is available on the ship, so it's fine if you forget it. You shouldn't expect much from breakfast. The cookies were very delicious.

The service was good, but the sea wasn't as beautiful as I expected, so I give it 4 stars.

日焼け止めは船内にあるので、最悪忘れても大丈夫です。
朝食はあまり期待しない方が良いでしょう。
クッキーはとても美味しかったです。

サービスは良かったですが、海が思ったより綺麗ではなかったので、星4です。

Kona Morning Makalawena Snorkeling Cruise to Puu Alii Bay - Ocean Encounters

Amazing group adventure!

Reviewed by: Brittany

Scheduled this event as a large group visiting HI for the first time. We all had a blast. The boat ride to the snorkeling locations was fun. We saw a lot of fish and a few sea turtles. The waters are choppy, so if your prone to motion sickness, come prepared. All snorkel gear was provided. Overall, a fun experience.

Great experience!

Reviewed by: Akanksha

It was an amazing experience on the 5 hour tour with SeaQuest. We got to see a lot of diverse marine life while snorkeling in the reefs and got a tour of the lava tubes and caves along the way. Would highly recommend! Our guide and crew were great.

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＞

The best experience!!! I fell in love with manta rays♡ 最高の体験！！！マンタのことが大好きになりました♡

Reviewed by: aiai

I love dolphins and was thinking about them all the time, but I found out just before my trip to Hawaii that I could see manta rays, and I really wanted to see them! So, I made a reservation.
My father has difficulty seeing, and since it was at night, I was very worried. However, thanks to the person who corresponded with me via email beforehand and especially the support from Tamae on the day of the tour, my family, including my father, had an unforgettable experience that we will cherish forever.
From the moment I peered into the water, manta rays came to us in droves, and I was so excited! I was mesmerized by their graceful swimming. After the tour ended, our family couldn't stop talking about the manta rays.
I also can't forget the sunset we saw from the boat and the magical sky when I turned around while watching the manta rays.
There were many worries, but they provided solid support, so I hope those who are anxious will definitely consider joining.
I'm sure a wonderful experience awaits you!!!♡

イルカが大好きでイルカのことばかり考えていましたが笑、マンタが見られることをハワイ渡航の直前に知り、ぜひ見たい！！！！と思い、予約しました。
私の父は目が見えずらく、夜の海ということもありとても心配していましたが、事前にメール対応をしてくださった方と、何より当日のたまえさんのサポートのおかげで、父を含めて家族みんなで一生心に残る最高の体験をすることができました。
海の中を覗いた瞬間から、マンタがたくさんきてくれて大興奮！優雅に泳ぐ姿にうっとりしました。ツアーが終わった後から、私たちの家族はマンタの話題で持ちきりです。笑
船から見えた夕陽と、マンタを見てるときにふと後ろを振り返った時の幻想的な空も忘れられません。
色々と不安なことも多かったですが、しっかりとサポートしてくれるので、不安な方もぜひ参加してみて欲しいです。
きっと素敵な体験が待っているはずです！！！♡
