We had an awesome time and saw more tails and fins than we had hoped for. We loved the running commentary on whales and learned lots. Thanks to the entire crew for a wonderful cruise, even though the waters were choppy. We highly recommend this tour!

It was interesting! 面白かった!

Reviewed by: pcs22855

The event started at 17:30, but I lined up for the general seating from 17:00 and was able to be shown to a seat quite far forward. The children's buffet was ready to eat right away, so I had my child go get some, and I enjoyed it as a snack. The main buffet was delicious as well. I got a bit sleepy during the middle of the show, but the fire performances were impressive.

17:30開始ですが17:00からジェネラル席の列に並んで待ったところ、だいぶ前の席を案内してもらえました。
子供用のビュッフェはすぐに食べられるので子供に取りに行ってもらって、
つまみがわりにいただきました。メインビュッフェもどれも美味しかったです。
ショーは中盤眠くなりましたがファイア系は迫力ありますね。

Outstanding Tour!!!

Reviewed by: Jack

I am always Leary of organized tours but this one was an exception. Our guide Nick was exceptional. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable, and well taken care of. He has done his homework and knows the history and the island well, showing us a lot of extra things along the way such as plants, historical notes etc. it was a long day but we enjoyed every minute and would recommend to anyone.

6名限定！ハワイ島　野生のイルカウォッチング+ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー＜午前／英語ガイド／軽食付＞

Encounter with a whale! クジラと遭遇！

Reviewed by: ギッタカ

The day before departure, the Japanese guide couldn't be arranged, so we had to quickly switch to an English guide. I was wondering how it would turn out, but they made a great effort to communicate, and it actually felt like I was abroad. Plus, there were plenty of dolphins swimming around, and best of all, we got to see a whale passing right in front of us! Even the guide and captain were super excited!

出発前日に日本語ガイドさんが手配できなかったとのことで、急遽英語のガイドさんに。
どうなる事かと思ったけど、一生懸命コミュニケーションとってくださって、かえって海外来たって感じられました。
そして、肝心のイルカもたくさん泳いでて

ケアウホウ湾　シーカヤック＆シュノーケリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／軽食付き＞by オーシャンサファリ・カヤック

I had a great time. とても楽しかったです。

Reviewed by: じゅの

When I checked the meeting place on Google Maps, it ended up being along H1, so I confirmed it at the hotel front desk and headed there cautiously. First, we drove to check the parking and location, and in the end, we walked from the Sheraton where we were staying to Keauhou Bay. It was about the size of a private beach, and we could easily reach it from the opposite side.

It was our first time kayaking, and as expected, we didn't make much progress at first, but the weather was really nice that day, and we were able to reach the cave safely! As mentioned in other comments, it's better to have sandals that won't come off or trekking shoes. Depending on the weather, there may be times when you can't reach the land, so it's best to bring them just in case. We only had beach sandals, but the guide said, "They float in water, so if you drop them, you can just pick them up, so it's not a problem."

I recommend getting a waterproof disposable camera sold on-site, as it allows you to take photos without worry. Also, my husband only got sunburned on the inside of his feet. It's best to be fully prepared for sun protection.

集合場所をGoogleMapで確認すると、H1沿いになってしまうのでホテルのフロントで確かめて慎重に向かいました。まずは車で行き駐車場や場所を確認し、結局は今回宿泊していたシェラトンから歩いてケアウホウ湾に行きました。プライベートビーチぐらいの大きさで反対側にいても問題なくたどり着ける距離でした。
カヤックは主人も私も初めてで、思った通りになかなか進まなかったりしましたが、この日は本当に天気が良く無事に洞窟までたどり着くことができました！
他の人のコメントにあったとおり、脱げないサンダルやトレッキング用シューズがあったほうが良いです。天候によっては陸地にいけないこともありますが、念のため持って行ったほうがよいです。私たちはビーチサンダルしかなかったのですが、ガイドのお兄さんが「水に浮くから落としても拾えるから問題ない」と言ってました。
現地で売ってる防水の使い捨てカメラがあると気兼ねなく写真を撮ることができるのでお勧めです。
あと、主人は足の内側だけ焼けてました。日焼け対策は万全にしておいたほうが良いです。

This was a great time and we can't wait to do it again! We were all able to stand up on our surf boards because of their great teaching, and we loved being in the water with the instructors.

ハワイ島　乗馬ツアー　コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬！ ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

It was truly a wonderful experience. I will definitely visit again! 本当に素晴らしい体験。再訪確実！

Reviewed by: ねこ子

I chose the course at Cahuilla Ranch because I wanted to ride freely in a spacious area, and it was a great decision. Perhaps because it was the off-season, we unexpectedly had a private tour with just the instructor and my husband and me. Under the guidance of a beautiful and slender instructor, we strolled through the vast ranch, controlling the horse ourselves instead of being led. Everything was in English, but she explained everything very slowly and carefully, and she repeated important points multiple times, so I had no worries at all. The horses are very well-trained, almost smarter than humans. The attending instructor ensures customer safety while allowing us to ride quite freely according to our wishes and skill levels, so if you have some riding experience, you can have the best experience in this vast ranch with its elevation changes. There is no pick-up service, but it's easy to find if you go by rental car, as it's not a confusing location and there are signs. The prices are reasonable, and I highly recommend it as an optional tour.

広い場所で、自由に乗馬したかったので、こちらのカフア牧場のコースを選択しましたが大正解でした。オフシーズンのためか、期せずしてインストラクターと私達夫婦というプライベートツアーに。美人でスレンダーなインストラクターの指導のもと、引き馬ではなく、自分で馬をコントロールしながら広大な牧場をお散歩。全て英語ですが、とてもゆっくり、丁寧に説明してくれるし、重要なことは同じことを何度も言ってくれるので全く不安はありませんでした。馬はとてもよく調教されており、人間より賢いくらい。アテンドするインストラクターは顧客の安全に万全を期してくれる一方、こちらの希望やレベルに合わせかなり自由に乗らせてくれるので、少し乗馬経験のある方なら広大で高低差のある牧場で、最高の経験ができます。送迎はありませんが、レンタカーで行けば迷う場所ではなく、看板もありわかりやすいです。料金も安く、オプショナルツアーとして最高にお勧めできます。

Reviewed by: さきさん

Since we went with a plan to meet at the location, I was worried about whether I would easily find the meeting spot, but once I got there, it was very clear. The staff was waiting for us even before the meeting time, which made me feel relieved.

There were only the two of us participating in the tour, so we were able to enjoy ourselves freely. We quickly spotted dolphins and were able to see many of them, which made us very satisfied. Above all, I could feel the staff's love for dolphins. If I had to mention one thing, I regret forgetting to take photos.

Since it was just the two of us, it was helpful that they adjusted the return time for us.

I think we had a wonderful way to spend our time! Thank you very much!

We saw whales but the boat was so-so

Reviewed by: Anonymous

We've been on multiple whale tours over the years. We saw multiple whales but the boat was crowded and pretty dated. The microphone didn't work for the first 30 minutes and they never used the hydrophone after mentioning that they had one. Definitely not the "spacious deck with ample seating for all passengers and first class amenities" as advertised. The Kawaihae Harbor location is setup weird. After arriving and checking in we had to board a bus for a 5 minute ride to the boat. Every cruise in the past allowed us to park and then walk on without a shuttle bus. The crew was friendly.

We did the Circle Island Tour, small group tour which was fantastic. I cannot say enough about this tour. It was approx. 11.5 hours but the day flew by. Our driver Kevin was amazing and informed us about everything. It was a maximum 12 people which made it very enjoyable. Our lunch break we stopped at an Orchid shop and our driver had picked us up Bento Boxes, it was delicious. We saw everything from waterfalls, rain forest, black sand beach, lava tubes, lava fields, and volcanoes and so much more. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone. Well worth the money.

Kona Sunset Dinner Cruise to Kealakekua Bay with Live Entertainment | Body Glove

The most romantic and special event of a lifetime!

Reviewed by: Kimo Kameaalohalani

So I decided to propose on this particular cruise, and I couldn't have picked a more romantic, thoughtful, and special cruise to do it. I was so incredibly nervous, but the customer service rep was extremely communicative and responsive for my specific request. John, the captain of the vessel, was so knowledgable in the marine life, that my fiance and I asked if he had majored in Marine Biology in college. He had a lot of passion for the marine life and he spent a lot of time speaking with us. Also, the wait staff was beyond courteous, they took pictures of my engagement, and they made us feel so special with their champagne toast.

I also set-up an original song to sing for my fiance, and the musician onboard actually learned my song before-hand, and played it perfectly as I sang it in front of 40 strangers! His tunes really bring that cool, Hawaiian vibe, and the MC was great with her meticulous tour and crowd work. I couldn't have asked for a better sunset, a perfect location, and the greatest staff that I have probably ever encountered. That's saying a lot as I had been a musician on several international five-star cruise lines in the past. I would HIGHLY recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a special event with incredible food.
