Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation

Mauna Kea lived up to my expectatio

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I expected this trip would be a magical chance to get to stand "on top of the world" and watch the sunset and see the stars. It was indeed spectacular. The stargazing portion was really geared towards people who are absolute astronomy beginners, so if youre an amateur astronomer you'll be a little disappointed that you don't get to see more. But the guides were great the whole time giving a great history of the Big Island ranging from botany to politics to Volcano development. Don't expect a very lively time, if you're there as an individual it's a quiet, lonely world up there. but would be great as an adventurous couple to see something totally out of the ordinary.

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

Enjoying Zodiac in Hawaii Island! ハワイ島でゾディアック☆大満喫☆

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This month (January 2013), I participated with my husband.

On the day of the event, I was worried that it might be canceled due to high waves, but we drove to the meeting point with a rental car.

Regarding the waves, there was absolutely no problem. After signing in at the reception, I changed into my swimsuit. I slathered on sunscreen because the Hawaiian sun can be intense.

Once on the Zodiac, they kept asking if I had applied enough sunscreen. The guide had sunscreen available, so it was okay to borrow some there. In fact, I did borrow it. Thank you!

As we left the harbor, we were waved off by a sea turtle floating in the harbor.

Bouncing along, we quickly encountered a pod of dolphins. They are said to be the second largest species of dolphin, and I thought they were small whales.

The guide shared various information about the fish and islands, but due to the wind noise and my limited English, I understood very little. However, he was a nice guy.

Now, getting back on track, we headed south from the harbor towards the Sheraton, and the snorkeling took place in Kealakekua Bay, which is not affected by swells.

It was almost my first time snorkeling, but they provided something like a float, and since it was close to the shore and the boat, and the guide was watching over us, I felt safe and wasn't scared at all. I was very satisfied to see colorful tropical fish hiding among the corals up close. The sea urchins were super big.

When we got hungry, we were given sandwiches, snacks, and juice. It was all gone in no time.

On the way back, we encountered not only dolphins but also whales. They came quite close, within a few dozen meters, and everyone was super excited.

The boat was going really fast, so on the way there, I was tense, clinging to the rope and my husband to avoid falling off, but on the way back, I discovered how to brace myself and was able to relax quite a bit.

In the end, I gave a tip to the guide who took care of us, but many people didn't give one, so it's really up to you. It's the thought that counts.

Since I get cold easily, I used a towel and a hoodie to shield myself from the wind during the ride. Also, for those concerned about sunburn, you might need to hold your hat down with your hand to prevent it from blowing away, so having a hat might be a good idea.

今月（2013年1月）、夫と二人で参加してきました。

当日は、波が高く、中止になるのかなぁと心配しつつ、
レンタカーで、集合場所まで行きました。

波については、まったくのノープロブレム。受付で名前を書いたら、水着にお着替え。
日焼け止めをベトベトと塗ります。ハワイの日差しはやばそうですからね。

ゾディアックに乗ると、しつこいくらい、日焼け止めを塗ったか確認されます。
ガイドが日焼け止めを持っているので、そこで貸してもらってもOKです。というか借りました。
さんきゅー。

港から出るときは、たまたま港内に浮かんでいたウミガメさんに見送ってもらいました。

ボンボン揺られながら、沖にでると、早速イルカの群れに遭遇。2番目に大きい種類のイルカだそうで、小さいくじらかと思いました。

ガイドさんが、魚や島のことについて色々教えてくれるのですが、風音と英語が苦手なせいで、殆どわからんちんでした。でも、ナイスガイでしたわー。

さて、話が逸れましたが、港からシェラトン方面にずっと南下して、シュノーケリングは、うねりの影響を受けない、ケアラケクア湾で行いました。

シュノーケリングは、殆ど初めてでしたが、浮き輪みたいなものも貸してくれたし、岸や船からも近いし、ガイドさんも見ててくれるので安心感があり、全然怖くなかったです。
色とりどりの熱帯魚がサンゴにかくれんぼしている姿が間近に見れて、大満足でした。ウニ超でかいです。

お腹が空いたら、サンドイッチとスナックとジュースが貰えます。ペロリでした。

帰りは、いるかに加えて、くじらにも遭遇。数十メートルの距離でまで、近寄ってきて、みんな、大興奮でした。

ボートはすごいスピードなので行きはロープや主人にしがみついて落ちないように緊張していましたが、帰りには踏ん張るコツというのを発見しかなりリラックスして乗船できました。


最後は、お世話になったガイドさんにチップを渡しましたが、渡してない人も多数いたので、どちらでも良いですね。気持ち気持ち。

私は寒がりなので、移動中は、タオルとパーカーで風を防御していました。
あと、日焼けが気になる方は、風で飛ばされないように、手で押さえなければならないですが、帽子もあったほうがよいかもですね。

The language barrier... 語学の壁が・・・

Reviewed by: mino

I think the tour itself is very interesting, but there is a language barrier...

I would recommend it to those who can speak English, but I feel it might be tough for those who cannot. However, it seems that there is a good chance of encountering dolphins and whales.

If you can speak English, definitely give it a try!

ツアー自体は大変面白いと思いますが、語学の壁が・・・。

英語が話せる方にはお勧めですが、英語が話せない方には厳しいかなと感じました。
しかし、イルカ・鯨にはかなりの確立であえるみたいです。

英語が話せる方は是非参加してみてください。

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＞

I got to see a whale! クジラにも会えた！

Reviewed by: さちえ

It seems that there was a last-minute cancellation, so it was just the two of us on the private tour.

The waves were very high that day, making swimming quite challenging, but there were floats available, so those who aren't confident in swimming can feel at ease.

We encountered dolphins right after we set sail. Although we couldn't keep up with the dolphins due to the high waves, there were so many of them that we were able to swim alongside them.

A few days before our tour, the whale sighting rate had been poor, but fortunately, we encountered about six whales and were able to see not only their backs but also their tails and faces. The guide told us that this was not normal and that it’s rare to see so many.

We enjoyed watching the whales, snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay, and having fruits and snacks while watching the dolphins; it was truly a luxurious experience.

There were no showers, but I didn't feel sticky at all; it was quite comfortable. They also provided water to rinse off if needed.

However, there were no restrooms, so I rushed to the restroom as soon as we arrived at the port. There was no place to change, so I had to change in the restroom.

Thank you for a wonderful time; I was very excited!

直前にキャンセルが出たらしく、私たち夫婦二人の貸切でした。

この日はとても波が高くて、泳ぐのはとても大変でしたが、水に浮くフロートもあるので、泳ぎに自信のない方にも安心です。

出港してすぐイルカには会えました。波が高いのでイルカの泳ぎにはついて行けませんでしたが、たくさんいるので一緒に泳げました。

私たちのツアーの数日前まではクジラ遭遇率が悪かったそうですが、幸い６匹くらい出会え、背中だけではなく、尻尾やお顔も見ることができました。ガイドさんにこれが普通ではないのよ。こんなに見られることはないって言われました。

クジラもお腹いっぱい見て、ケアラクア湾でシュノーケルをして、イルカを見ながら、フルーツやスナックをいただいて、至れり尽くせりでした。

シャワーはありませんが、全然ベトベトせず、サラサラで不快ではなかったです。気になったら流す水も用意してくれています。

ただトイレはないので、港に着いたらトイレに駆け込みました。着替える場所もないので、トイレで着替えます。


とても興奮して素晴らしい時間をありがとうございました。

Hawaiian Canoe Paddling Tour Adventure from Waikoloa - Hulakai

Very cool experience!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Canoe surfing was a lot of fun! It is like surfing on a canoe. Our 4 yo and 6 yo kids loved it, too. It does take a lot of effort on the adults part so be prepared to paddle. Our guide was excellet. We had some great conversation while waiting for each set to roll in. It was definitely worth the price for this experience. We did show up when originally scheduled, but the waves weren't big enough so they promised to call us when it would be better to come out. As promised they called us the next morning (they offered a whale watch if the waves weren't good enough before we had to leave). We were glad we re-arranged our schedule to do this. We will probably do it again when we go back.

This might be what a hotel luau is like... Previously, I attended a luau on Maui that was really great, so this might be a gap in comparison... The difference is that the entertainment, like the hula dance, was lacking. I was expecting something more dynamic. The food wasn't bad, but it was just okay. There were few drink options. Maybe Kinkame is in a small space.

ホテルのルアウだとこんなもんなのかもしれない・・・
以前、マウイ島で参加したルアウがすごく良かったので、そのギャップかもしれない・・・何が違うかと言うと、フラダンス等のエンタが寂しい。もっとダイナミックなものを期待していた。食事は悪くはなかったが、まあまあ。飲み物の種類が少なかった。キンカメは場所が狭いのかな。

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

Thrilling ocean rafting! 迫力満点のオーシャンラフティング！

Reviewed by: Mit

I participated in the monitor campaign with Aran1 and boarded the Zodiac. The tour was a 5-hour trip with a lunch included, departing at 10 AM. We took a taxi from our hotel in Kona to the meeting point at Honokohau Harbor and arrived without any trouble. Besides the two of us, there were no other Japanese participants, and the group was quite international, with members from various countries visiting for tourism. Therefore, all the procedures and interactions during the boarding were in English. However, I don't think those who are not confident in English will have too much trouble, as difficult English is hardly necessary. Additionally, they provided supplementary materials in Japanese during the initial procedures, so I think you'll have a general understanding of what is being said.

At first glance, the boat surprised me as it was just a rubber boat. It was my first experience with rafting, and I was excited to see what ocean rafting would be like, but it was even more intense than I expected, racing across the sea with great excitement. You can experience thrills like a roller coaster, hitting waves and falling off them. However, this rubber boat is said to be military-grade, so it was very stable.

While it's easy to focus on the rafting part, the basics are also well covered. First, we snorkeled in Kealakekua Bay, where Captain Cook's monument is located! Just a little below the surface, there was a beautiful expanse of coral reefs and tropical fish. The water clarity was excellent, probably around 25 meters. Since it was January, the water temperature felt a bit chilly, but the foreigners didn't seem to mind the cold too much. However, once you get back on the boat from the sea, the sun's rays are very strong, making it quite warm. In fact, it's so strong that if you don't apply enough sunscreen, you could get burned. The lunch after snorkeling was a sandwich, and it was delicious.

On the way back, they explained various spots along the west coast of the Big Island. We were also fortunate enough to see schools of whales and dolphins during the rafting, which was a bonus. This tour is not just about going snorkeling; the boat ride itself is an attraction, making it a two-in-one experience. I had a great time. However, there is no restroom on the boat, so I think it would be a challenge if you don't take care of that before boarding. If you want to enjoy snorkeling at a leisurely pace, it might be better to take a larger boat.

今回Aran1さんのモニターキャンペーンを利用しゾディアック号に乗船してきました。コースは10時出発ランチ付の5時間ツアーです。コナのホテルからタクシーに乗って集合場所のホノコハウハーバーまで向かいましたが迷うことも無くすんなり到着しました。参加者は私たち2人以外日本人はおらず、いろいろな国から観光に来ている国際色豊かなメンバーでした。ということで、もちろん手続きや乗船中のやりとりは全て英語となります。ただし、難しい英語はほとんど必要ないので英語が苦手という人でもそれほど困ることはないと思います。また、最初の手続き時に日本語で書かれた補足資料を渡してくれるので、何を言っているのか大体の見当はつくと思います。
ボートは最初見て驚きましたが本当にただの（？）ゴムボートです。ラフティング経験は初めてで、しかもオーシャンラフティングということでどんなもんかワクワクしていましたが、予想以上に激しく海の上を走り迫力満点でした。波にぶつかったり、波から落ちたりさながらジェットコースターのようなスリルを味わえます。しかしこのゴムボートは米軍仕様とかで安定感は抜群でした。
ラフティング部分に注目しがちですが、それ以外の基本もばっちりおさえています。まずはクック船長のモニュメントがあるケアラケクア湾でのスノーケリング！水面から少し潜るとそこは一面のさんご礁とトロピカルな魚達がとてもきれいでした。海の透明度も抜群で25mはあるかと思います。1月ということもあり水温は肌寒く感じられましたが、外国人の方々はあまり寒そうではないようでした。しかし、海から船に上がると太陽の日差しがとても強いのでとても暖かいです。というより強すぎるので日焼け止めは十分に塗っておかないと火傷をします。スノーケリング後のランチはサンドイッチでしたが、これがまたおいしかったです。
帰りはハワイ島西海岸の各スポットについて説明してくれました。また、ラフティング中にクジラやイルカの群れを見ることもできお得でした。
ただスノーケルに行くだけでなく、船での移動そのものがアトラクションになっている本ツアーは1粒で2度おいしいというかんじです。とても楽しむことができました。ただし、船にはトイレがないので乗船前に済ましておかないと大変だと思います。またゆっくりスノーケルだけを楽しみたいということであれば大きな船に乗っていくツ

It's a gang of the sea, a pirate ship!! 海のギャング、海賊船だ！！

Reviewed by: Tommy

I went to the port without knowing much about the Zodiac boat, and it turned out to be just a black rubber boat with an engine. I was surprised that 18 people would fit on it! Since Hawaii Island is a small island floating in the Pacific, the waves were very high, and I felt a bit anxious about whether we could really go out on this. The cheerful captain revved the engine, lifted the Zodiac onto the sea, and made it glide over the waves. The speed was just like a jet ski. We could tilt the boat and turn just like surfing. Being lightweight, it could do anything! It felt like we were on a pirate ship. Sitting on the edge of the boat, we genuinely flew over the waves like flying fish!

We snorkeled near Captain Cook's monument. The water was really cold!! But it was so clear, and we enjoyed seeing beautiful tropical fish. While diving, I heard popping sounds, as if dolphins were communicating or something. After enjoying snorkeling for a while, we got cold and were the first to get out of the water, but the foreigners swam for over 10 minutes longer without any problem. The lunch on the boat after snorkeling was delicious. Then, the captain took us to a spot where we could see dolphins. I was moved, but after seeing the dolphins swim quickly, I felt exhausted just watching from the Zodiac. I was really glad to be back on land.

You can get the instructions in Japanese, but the language is in English. I didn’t feel like reading the instructions on the boat, so it’s definitely more fun if you understand English. You can really enjoy the cheerful activities with the foreigners.

ゾディアック号がどんな船かよく知らずに港に行ったら、エンジンがついているだけの黒のゴムボート。これに18人乗るからびっくり（<＝すみません）！ハワイ島は、太平洋に浮かんでいる小さな島なので、波がとても高く、ほんとにこれでいくのかいな～、と一抹の不安がよぎりました。陽気な船長さんは、エンジンをブインブインうならせて、ゾディアック号を海の上に持ち上げ、波の上を滑るように走らせました。そのスピードはまさにジェットホイール。そして、サーフィンみたいに自由自在に船を傾けてカーブを切っていきます。軽いからなんでもできるんですね～。こりゃもうあれくれボート、海賊船です。船のヘリにお尻を乗せて座っている私たちは、本気で波の上をトビウオみたいに飛びました！
シュノーケリングはクック船長の碑の前あたりで行いました。水がとってもつめたい！！でもすごく透明で、綺麗な熱帯魚が楽しめました。潜っているとぱちぱち音がしていて、イルカかなんかが交信してたみたいです。
十分シュノーケリングを楽しんだ私たちは、体が冷えてしまって一番に海からあがりましたが、外人さんは平気で私たちより１0分以上長く泳いでいました。シュノーケルの後の船の上のランチは美味しかったな～。それから、船長さんが、「いるか」がいる場所に連れて行ってくれました。感動したのですが、ゾディアック号でへとへとの私は、いるかの高速な泳ぎを見ているだけでどっと疲れが出ました。陸にもどってこられて、本当に良かったです。
説明書は日本語版をもらえますが、言葉は英語。船の上で説明書を読む気がしないので、英語がわかる方が断然楽しいです。まさに陽気な外人さんのアクティビティーが楽しめましす。

We participated in the morning plan on February 2, 2012, and all three of us were very satisfied!! I've been to Hawaii about ten times, but since coming to the Big Island, I've fallen in love with this place and have been coming here for four consecutive years. I usually stay at a condominium in Waikoloa, but this time we also spent two nights in Hilo and were satisfied after seeing the red flames of Kilauea at night before returning to our "home" in Waikoloa.

I usually play around snorkeling in the nearby sea. I was interested in this tour and wanted to go, but I thought it wouldn't be right to go alone while leaving my wife and grandmother behind. However, I reconsidered because:

1. The boat is large and stable.
2. It has clean restrooms.
3. Breakfast, lunch, drinks, and fruit are included.

With these conditions, my grandmother could just enjoy watching from the boat.

I was deeply moved and impressed after participating for the first time. My English is limited to what I learned in middle school, so I was worried. Luckily, there was a young Japanese sister on board, and I asked her to help me if I didn't understand something, but I managed to get by on my own.

Along the way, we saw whales, and just before we arrived at our destination, we were welcomed by a pod of dolphins. The staff and crew were enthusiastic and cool, and their commitment to ensuring each guest had a great time was palpable.

The sea was clear, with coral reefs and schools of tropical fish. Most of the guests seemed to be Americans, and everyone, young and old, was lively and friendly. There was no need for words...

Honestly, I wish I understood more English. The beautiful and clean boat eased my grandmother's initial worries, and she even asked, "When are we going again?"

Even without getting in the water, she enjoyed watching everyone play in the beautifully clear coral reef from the boat. The staff filmed the experience, so I quickly purchased the video and watch it from time to time.

My younger brother, who was watching it with me, is retiring this year, and he wants us all to go together as a celebration, so we’ve already made a reservation for February 14, 2013. I’m looking forward to it!

Whether in winter or summer, the water is nice, but it can be cold when you get back on the boat, so I need to remember to bring a large towel or a yacht parka.

The most important thing is to "have fun together." Among the things to bring for this tour, it mentions bringing sunglasses and also an "adventurous spirit." I really love this feeling.

I can't wait to go again!

2012年2月2日のモーニングプランに参加し、3人とも大満足!!
ハワイ旅は10回位ですが、ハワイ島に来てからここが大好きになって4年連続で来ています。いつもワイコロアのコンドミニアムがメインですが、今回はヒロにも2泊して夜のキラウエアの赤い炎も見て満足してからワイコロアの「我が家？」に。
何時もは近くの海でシュノーケルしたりして遊んでいました。私はこのツアーに興味を持って『行きたい』と思っていましたが妻とお婆ちゃんを残して一人で行ってもナー。とあきらめていましたが、

2.きれいなトイレが付いている。

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧　水～土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能＜フライト100分／英語パイロット／ワイコロアヘリポート＞

The view that can only be seen from a helicopter is amazing. ヘリでしかわからない景色が見れて最高

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Since the ocean entry of lava is currently unavailable, I opted for a helicopter tour. I was worried because it had been cloudy until the day before, but we were blessed with clear skies and were able to see breathtaking views. There were past craters scattered around, allowing us to witness the remnants of previous lava flows and observe how lava changes over time. The contrast between dry and rainy areas was also visible, giving us a sense of nature's dynamism. We could see roads cut off by lava flows, lava within the currently active Puʻu ʻŌʻō crater (which was a bit far away, and I wished we could get a little closer), and people walking towards the ocean entry. It was a comprehensive view of everything related to lava.

I took a lot of photos, but I was surprised at how different the intensity of the actual experience was compared to the pictures when I looked at them later. It was an impressive flight, and I would love to fly again by helicopter when lava activity becomes more active. The people who picked us up, the helicopter mechanics, the reception staff, and the pilot were all very kind, making it a truly enjoyable flight.

Laveのオーシャンエントリーが現在はないとのことで、ヘリにしました。
前日まで曇りで心配しましたが、快晴に恵まれ、迫力のある景色が見れました。
過去の噴火口があちこちにあり、過去のlaveの流れたあとを目にすることができるし、時の流れでlaveがどのように変化するか、乾燥地帯と多雨地帯の相違も目で見て自然のダイナミックさを感じることができました。また、laveの流れで寸断された道路や、現在活動中のpuoo火口内のlave（ちょっと遠くて、もう少し近づいてほしかった）、オーシャンエントリーに歩いていく人たち。laveに関するものが一望できました。
いっぱい写真も撮りましたが、帰って見た写真と実物の迫力がこれほど違うかとびっくりするぐらいでした。
laveの活動が活発になったら、もう一度ヘリで飛びたいと思う印象的なフライトでした。
迎えに来てくれた人や、ヘリの整備士の活動も見れたし、受付の人、パイロットはみんな親切でとても楽しいフライトでした。

Is Kilauea sleepy now!? 今、キラウェアはスリーピー！？

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I wanted to see the flowing lava into the ocean, so I joined a helicopter tour. Since the explanation was in English, I didn't fully understand the details, but looking down at the Big Island from the helicopter was fascinating; it was just like the geography I studied in school, showing the natural landscape as it is.

However, the volcano we aimed for wasn't very active, and we only saw a few spots where the lava was slowly flowing. From above, it was hard to tell if it was actually moving. Currently, the lava is described as "sleepy." There were no signs of lava erupting or falling into the ocean. While there was some hot lava, since it was a morning flight, we could only see a few areas glowing red, which might look different at night. I booked this about two months ago, so the condition of the volcano largely depends on luck. Given the current situation, I think a hiking and stargazing tour would allow for a closer view of the flowing lava. It might be a good idea to check the volcano's status before deciding on a tour.

That said, helicopters can’t fly due to weather conditions, and in the past two instances with other tour companies, my flights were canceled because of the weather, so I was glad we were able to fly.

　海に流れ落ちる溶岩、流れる溶岩を見たいと思い、ヘリコプターツアーに参加しました。英語解説だったのでで詳しいことはよくわかりませんでしたが、ヘリコプターから見下ろすハワイ島は、昔地理で勉強した地形のでき方そのまま、自然そのままな様子をしっかりと見ることができ面白かったです。
　ただ、目的の火山があまりアクティブでなく、のんびり溶岩が流れている様子が何カ所か見られるのみでした。それも上空からだと動いているかどうかは実感できません。今（今日？）溶岩はスリーピーとのこと。溶岩が噴出していたり、海には落ちていたりする様子はありませんでした。熱い溶岩がない訳ではないのですが午前中のフライトなので、溶岩がところどころ赤くなっていることが分かる程度で、夜だったら見え方は多少違うのかもしれません。2ヶ月くらい前に予約したので、火山の状態がどうかは運によるところが大きいのでしょう。この状態ならハイキングと星空ツアーの方が、より近くで流れる溶岩を見られてよいかと思いました。火山の状態をチェックしながらどのツアーにするか考えるとよいかもしれません。
　とはいえ、ヘリコプターは天気によって飛べないことがあり、過去2回、他のツアー会社ですが天気のせいでキャンセルになっているので、飛べてよかったです。

I would love to participate again if I have the chance. This is a highly recommended tour.

12/16に参加させていただきました。初めてで、緊張していましたがキャプテンも大輔くんも、とてもフレンドリーに接してくれたので、すぐに緊張も吹っ飛びました。
天気にも恵まれ、イルカの群れにも遭遇できその中で泳ぐことができたうえにイルカの声も聞くことができ、感動感動のしっぱなしでした。
また、機会があれば参加したいと思っています。とても、おススメのツアーです。

I had a great time seeing dolphins and various other sea creatures! The staff's response was wonderful, and I was able to enjoy myself with peace of mind. I booked a shuttle service, and it was nice to have someone who spoke Japanese and shared many stories with me! I want to swim with dolphins again the next time I visit the Big Island!

イルカは勿論、色々な海の生き物を見ることができてとても楽しかったです！
スタッフの対応も素晴らしく、安心して楽しむことができました。
送迎付きを申し込みましたが、日本語を話せる方で色々な話を聞かせてもらえてよかったです！
またハワイ島に行くときはイルカと泳ぎたいと思います！

I was healed by the sound of dolphins. イルカの声に癒されました

Reviewed by: turu

I was honestly nervous because I'm not a good swimmer, but when the dolphins appeared, all of that disappeared. I forgot my fear of the water and found myself swimming smoothly towards the dolphins, which surprised me.

Just hearing their voices is soothing, but having wild dolphins come close to me was truly moving.

Since we were in an area with dolphins, there were some waves, but I felt completely fine because we had a guide with us, and I could swim with a float between my arms. Plus, I got to hear fun stories about dolphins and the ocean, which made me very satisfied.

By chance, on the day I went, I saw three manta rays, and the weather was nice enough to see all the way to Maui, and even Mauna Kea. A miracle happened when a whale appeared, and I got to see its tail perfectly. The excitement on the boat was through the roof, and I was able to create unforgettable memories.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience.

泳ぎが苦手なので正直ドキドキしていたのですが
イルカが登場したらそんなことぶっ飛びました。
水が怖い事も忘れて、イルカの方へスイスイ泳いでいて
自分でもびっくり。

ただ声を聞くだけでも癒されるのにその上、
野生のイルカが傍に寄ってきてくれるなんて感動です。

イルカのいる海域なので多少波があるのですが
それでも傍にガイドさんもついていてくれるし
棒状の浮きを脇に挟んで泳げるので全然平気でした。
それに楽しいイルカや海の話も聞けて大満足でした。

たまたまなんですが私の行った日にはマンタも３枚見れ
天気が良かったのでマウイ島まで見れ、
マウナケアの頭まで見れるという奇跡が起き、
更にクジラが現れて、テールまでバッチリ見れました。
こんな幸せな状態に船の上のテンションは上がりまくりで
忘れられない思い出が作れました。

本当に楽しい思い出をありがとうございました。

We participated as a family, but since I'm not good at English and the show progressed quickly, I couldn't understand it well. I think it would be enjoyable if you are okay with English. It felt different from the shows in Guam and Saipan.

家族で参加しましたが、英語が苦手なため早口でショーが進行されたため内容がよく分からなかった。英語OKなら楽しめると思います。グアムやサイパンのショーとは一味違う感じでした。

I participated in a dolphin snorkeling tour with my child on November 21. At first, my mother was anxious, but she was so happy to meet the dolphins! I think it's thanks to Daisuke, who guided us in a fun and kind way. Thank you very much! This was my first time in Hawaii, and I learned a lot, which made me fall in love with the Big Island. When I go back to the Big Island, I hope to have you as my tour guide again. Thank you so much!

Full of enjoyment! 醍醐味満載！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

An experience you can't savor in Japan!

Unlike rafting in rivers, this is a speed-filled attraction.

I was satisfied to meet natural whales, Hawaiian dolphins, manta rays, and sea turtles (＾ｰ^)ノ

I was moved by the chance to encounter such nature!

Snorkeling was also a fantastic fish-watching experience in the deep blue sea, so it was full of natural beauty!

It was a day where I could experience the greatness of nature along with wonderful experiences o(^▽^)o

日本では味わえない醍醐味！

川で行うラフティングとは違いスピード満載のアトラクション。

自然のクジラとハワイイルカ、マンタに海亀に会えて満足(＾ｰ^)ノ

こんな自然に巡り会えることに感動しました！

シュノーケリングも真っ青な海の中での魚ウォッチングだったので自然さ満点！


ステキな体験とともに自然の偉大さを体験出来た一日でしたo(^▽^)o

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

I had a great time!! とても楽しかった！！

Reviewed by: esima

This was my first time rafting in the ocean, and I was looking forward to experiencing the differences from river rafting. Since it has an engine, it felt completely different, almost like flying over the sea. I think it's suitable for those who want to feel the thrill of speed. However, it might not be ideal for those who are prone to motion sickness.

While on the ride, and especially at the snorkeling points, the staff were very considerate, taking us to various spots where we could see not only small tropical fish but also larger fish like bonito and even dolphins. After snorkeling, they guided us back to the port while showing us various sightseeing spots from the sea, providing detailed explanations about the history and background, making it a tour that was worth more than the price.

One issue was that since it was November, it was a bit cold, and I wasn't used to being on the water, so I had a hard time holding it until we arrived at the port. The tour was planned for four hours, and although I used the restroom before boarding, it actually took about six hours, so I think it's better to limit drinks on board.

Aside from the restroom issue, it was a fantastic and enjoyable tour. Regarding language, I believe that anyone with a basic understanding of English will be able to understand, as the staff used simple language.

海のラフティングは初めてで、川との違いを楽しみに参加しました。
エンジンついてるから川とは全く違ってて、海を飛んでる状態。
スピード感を味わいたい人には向いてると思います。
乗り物酔いしやすい人には向かないかもです。
乗ってる間は勿論ですが、シュノーケルポイントではスタッフの方が気を使ってくれて小さな熱帯魚の見えるポイントでけでなく、大きなカツオなどが見れるポイント、イルカの見えるポイントなど色々場所を変え連れて行ってくれました。
シュノーケリング終了後は港へ帰る前に色々な観光スポットを海から案内してくださって、歴史やら生い立ちやらの詳しい説明をしてくれながら帰ってくれたので金額以上の体験ツアーになりました。
ただ一つの問題は、１１月だったのでちょっと寒かったのもありますが、水の上に慣れていないので途中からトイレに行きたくて港に到着するまで我慢するのが大変でした。
４時間の予定でしたので、乗船する前にトイレには行ったのですが、実際かかった時間は６時間程かかりましたので船上での飲み物は控えめにされたほうがいいかと思います。
トイレさえ除けば全く問題なく、そしてとても楽しめるツアーでした。
言葉の問題ですが、ある程度のヒアリングができる人なら簡単な英語ですので理解できると思います。

I wanted to participate because I could ride on the Zodiac, but I was most impressed by the beauty of the ocean. I was able to enjoy encounters with wild sea turtles and dolphins, even more than I had expected. I believe it is worth participating.

My best memory. 一番の思い出

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I saw so many beautiful things on the dolphin tour. I was a bit scared because I can't swim, but thanks to Daisuke's help, I was really happy to see swimming dolphins and hear their mysterious voices. I was able to see a whale, which I thought I wouldn't be able to see, and it still feels like a dream.

I feel sorry for the dolphins in aquariums because they often have to adapt to humans, but the wild dolphins are so free and it's wonderful. Daisuke's figure diving deep into the ocean and swimming with the dolphins was very beautiful, and I thought it would be nice if I could swim like that too.

The dolphin tour became the best memory of this trip.

イルカのツアーでも、たくさん綺麗なものを見せていただきました。
私は泳げなくて少し怖かったのですが、大輔さんに助けていただいたお陰で、
泳ぐイルカを見たり、イルカの不思議な声を聞く事ができて本当に幸せでした。
見られないだろうなと思っていたクジラも見る事ができて、今でも夢みたいです。

水族館のイルカは人間に合わせることが多くて、かわいそうに思うのですが、
野生のイルカは伸び伸びしていて良いですね。
海の中を深く潜って、イルカと一緒に泳ぐ大輔さんの姿がとても綺麗で、
私もあんな風に泳げたらいいなぁと思いました。

イルカのツアーは、この旅行で一番の思い出になりました。

We are very grateful for your kind guidance and support. When I told my mother about it, she, who loves dolphins, said she definitely wants to do it too.

We will definitely visit the Big Island again, so we look forward to seeing you then.

I participated with my husband on November 22.

It was our first time snorkeling, and I wasn't confident in my swimming skills. Everyone around us was young (my husband is over 60).

When we got on the boat, I had a bit of regret, but once we got into the water, there were so many dolphins. The instructor, Daisuke, pulled us close to them, and I quickly got used to being in the water.

I felt like a child again, and we had a wonderful time with the dolphins, squealing with joy.

Regardless of age, I encourage everyone to join in!

１１月２２日に夫婦で参加しました。

初めてのシュノーケリング。泳ぎに自信なし。
周りは若い人ばかり。(主人は６０歳過ぎ）

船に乗った時は、ちょっと後悔しましたが、
海に入ったらイルカがいっぱいで
インストラクターの大輔君が近くまで
引っ張って行ってくれ、海の中にもすぐに慣れました。

童心に返り、キャーキャー言いながら、イルカと楽しい時間を過ごす事ができました。
