ハワイ島 サンセットセーリング　カタマラン船「スピリット・オブ・アロハ号」＜ワイコロア・アナエホオマルベイ発＞

Sunset cruise from A-Bay in Waikoloa by catamaran. カタマランで行くワイコロア　アナエホオマルベイ（A-bay）からのサンセットクルーズ

Reviewed by: Moco

In early March, we participated in a sunset cruise departing from the beach right in front of the Waikoloa Beach Marriott. We were the only Japanese guests, but the cruise included simple snacks and two drinks with alcohol.

The female captain announced that we might see dolphins and whales today, so everyone focused on searching for them while enjoying the scenery. Soon, one person spotted a sea turtle, and just as we were excited about that, the captain informed us that a pod of dolphins was nearby, prompting all the passengers to start watching. Then we spotted a whale! Everyone got really excited, sharing sightings of dolphins and whales, and the first half of the cruise was filled with excitement over dolphin and whale watching rather than just enjoying the views.

In the second half, we enjoyed the stunning Waikoloa sunset accompanied by slow Hawaiian music, making it a very satisfying sunset cruise.

３月初めに宿泊先のワイコロアビーチマリオットの目の前のビーチから出発のサンセットクルーズに参加しました。日本人は私たち夫婦だけでしたが簡単なおつまみとアルコールを含む2ドリンクつき。

女性キャプテンからのアナウンスで今日はイルカや鯨も見えるかもとのことで皆景色を楽しみながらもそれらを探すのに集中。
すぐに一人がウミガメを発見し、喜んでいると今度はキャプテンからイルカの群れがすぐ近くにの見えるとのお知らせに乗客皆でウォッチング^_^
そして今度は鯨を発見！
皆さん、ハイテンションになり、あちこちに見えるイルカや鯨を発見しては教え合い、前半は景色を楽しむよりイルカ&ホエルウォッチングで大盛り上がりでした。

後半はスローなハワイアンミュージックをバックに素晴らしいワイコロアのサンセットが見られ大満足のサンセットクルーズでした。

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

Refreshing ranch horseback riding experience 爽やかな牧場の乗馬体験

Reviewed by: naosan

We had a horseback riding experience in the morning as a family of three. It was everyone's first time, but we had a lot of fun. The blue sky and green scenery were amazing, and we spent about two hours on a spacious ranch. At times, we even trotted, which was thrilling, and my daughter enjoyed it as well. At higher altitudes, we entered the clouds, and the guide explained everything in clear English while being considerate of everyone's situation, which made us feel at ease. I recommend the 2.5-hour plan. It was a wonderful experience! I want to go again!

家族三人での朝からの乗馬体験。
全員初めてでしたが楽しかった。
青空とグリーンの景色が最高で広々とした牧場を2時間ほど。途中何度か駆け足で進んでみたりドキドキでしたが、娘も楽しんでいました。
標高の高いところでは雲の中に入って行ったり、ガイドのお姉さんがわかりやすい英語で説明してくれたり、みんなの状況を見ながら気遣ってくれたりと安心でもありました。2.5時間プランお薦めです。
素晴らしい体験！また行きたい！

I was able to see whales not just once, but multiple times. I was very satisfied to see a mother and her calf as well.
During the cruise, snacks and soft drinks were provided for free. While sitting outside, the staff asked what drinks we wanted and brought them to us.

It was a stable day, so I didn't need any motion sickness medication. I drove to the location with a rental car, and it was easy to find; it's at a corner. You can park on the shoulder of the road.

The weather hadn't been very good until the day before, but we were blessed with great weather on the day itself, so I didn't experience any seasickness without taking any medication.

Seeing the Big Island of Hawaii from the sky is amazing. 空から見るハワイ島も最高

Reviewed by: Hirocy

For my wife, who has difficulty walking, navigating uneven terrain is challenging, and even short distances can take time for able-bodied individuals. Therefore, instead of sightseeing by car, we chose the helicopter experience for the first time. Although it was disappointing that there was no lava flow, I was moved by the size of the crater when viewed from above. We also saw whales, and I am grateful to the pilot who helped us find them. I had requested a pilot who could speak Japanese, but since there were no other Japanese participants, it couldn't be helped. I was worried the day before due to strong winds that could have taken the steering wheel from me, but the ride was smooth and comfortable. My wife was also in high spirits. It was great to make effective use of our time.

足が不自由な家内にとっては、凸凹したところを歩いたりするのは困難で、健常者にとっては短い距離移動でも時間がかかったりするので、車での観光ではなく、初体験のヘリを選択しました。溶岩が流れていなかったのは残念でしたが、火口を上空から見ることが出来、その大きさに感動しました。また、鯨も見ることが出来ました。捜して下さったパイロットに感謝。日本語の出来るパイロットをリクエストしていましたが、他に日本人参加者がいなかったので仕方ありません。前日の午後は車のハンドルが取られる程の強風だったので心配しましたが揺れもなく快適。家内もハイテンションでした。時間が有効に使え良かったです。

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＞

I encountered a mother and baby whale! 親子のくじらに遭遇しました！

Reviewed by: T.S

The ship was larger than I expected. There was someone explaining over the speaker, but it was all in English, so I didn't understand it very well. There were hardly any Japanese guests. I was worried about seasickness, so I took some medication before heading out, but I didn't feel much rocking at all. I was able to see whales about four times, but of course, since we couldn't get too close, just watching from a distance lacked a bit of impact. However, being able to see them with the naked eye is only possible during this season, so I was really moved just to have had the chance to see them!

思っていた以上に大きい船でした。スピーカーで説明してくれている方がいたのですが、全て英語であまりよく分かりませんでした。日本人のお客さんもほとんどいませんでした。船酔いが不安だったので酔い止めを飲んで出掛けましたが、あまり揺れも感じずにすみました。4回ほどくじらを見ることができましたが、当然のことながら、あまり近くに寄ることもできないため、遠目に見るだけでは、やはり迫力には欠けます。しかし、肉眼で見られるのは、この時期だけですので、見ることができただけで感動でした！

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＞

I was able to see whales! クジラ見れました！

Reviewed by: ひいらぎ

I participated in the tour in early February 2020. After checking in at the tour reception, we boarded a small boat at a shallow beach and then transferred to a medium-sized whale-watching boat after heading a little offshore. Since this tour was not specifically for Japanese speakers, all the explanations were in English, and we didn't understand much as we are not very good at English. However, both the reception staff and the crew were friendly, so we didn't feel out of place.

The tour includes drinks and snacks. We didn't need them, so we didn't eat or drink, but I appreciated that the crew took the time to ask if we wanted something to drink and made an effort to deliver drinks to elderly passengers who found it difficult to move around due to the boat's rocking.

What kind of whales we encounter is purely a matter of luck, but this time we were able to see a mother whale with her baby. We didn't get to see any flashy displays, but we enjoyed watching them blow water and see their tails.

If we could understand English better, we might have enjoyed it even more, but it was a tour that was enjoyable even without knowing English.

2020年2月上旬に参加しました。
ツアー受付でチェックイン後、浅瀬のビーチで小型の船に乗り、そこから少し沖に出てから中型のクジラウォッチング用の船に乗り換えました。
日本人向けのツアーではないので説明はすべて英語で、英語が苦手な私たちにはあまり内容はわかりませんでしたが、受付の方もクルーの方もフレンドリーで肩身の狭い思いをすることはありませんでした。

ツアーにはドリンクやスナックがついています。
私たちはいらなかったので飲み食いしませんでしたが、クルーの方が何か飲まないかとわざわざ尋ねてくださったり、船は揺れるので移動が億劫になる高齢者の方に飲み物を届けたりする心遣いはいいなぁと思いました。

どんなクジラに出会えるかは運でしかないのですが、この時は赤ちゃん連れのクジラ親子に遭遇できました。
派手な画を見ることはできませんでしたが、塩吹きや尻尾を見ることができたので十分に楽しめました。

英語が理解できればもっと楽しめたのかもしれませんが、英語ができなくても楽しめるツアーでした。

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 was able to spend a truly fulfilling time. 本当に充実した時間を過ごすことができました

Reviewed by: よよいの

In mid-February, I participated in this activity, fulfilling my long-time dream of swimming with wild dolphins. It was truly an amazing experience. The captain, a woman named Bambi, was very knowledgeable about the Hawaiian sea and the ecology of dolphins and whales. She provided excellent guidance on where to spot dolphins, when to jump into the water, and her hospitality on the boat was top-notch. I also appreciated that this activity had a small group size, which made it even better.

<Recommended Points>
1. All conversations with the captain on the boat are in English, but they have a Japanese desk available, so if anything comes up, you can communicate in Japanese. (There were times when I needed to contact them due to scheduling issues, and I was grateful for their assistance in Japanese.)
2. The small group size.
3. There are noodles (floating pool toys), so even if you're not confident in your swimming ability, you can feel secure.
4. They provide free rentals of masks, snorkels, fins, and wetsuits.

<Content of the Experience>
After gathering, we quickly boarded the boat and headed to the dolphin spotting point. Along the way, we received instructions on how to wait when dolphins are spotted and how to swim. When we finally saw dolphins, we didn’t jump in immediately; instead, we observed the dolphins and waited for the chance to get close. Sometimes, other tour boats would pass by, causing the dolphins to speed up or swim away, making it difficult to jump in. However, we patiently waited for the captain's instructions from the boat, and when we got the go-ahead, we jumped into the sea! After that, we enjoyed swimming alongside the dolphins. Luckily, we got to swim with dolphins early on, so we spent the remaining time searching for whales, snorkeling, and being guided along the coastline on our way back to the dock. (We were also treated to tropical fruits on the boat!)

The activity lasted about four hours, and I had more than enough experience; I was very satisfied.

<Personal Recommended Items to Bring>
1. Although the boat has a roof, it can be quite sunny, and it can get cold while moving, so I recommend bringing a light jacket.
2. I highly recommend bringing a “familiar” waterproof camera. Dolphins swim quickly, so if you hesitate, you might miss the shot. (Smartphone cameras can be risky to drop, and they may take time to start up or be difficult to see the screen.) Additionally, it’s a good idea to attach a floating accessory to your waterproof camera in case it slips from your hand.

<Cautions>
1. Dolphins are wild, so there’s a possibility you may not see them depending on the day. Let’s hope to see them!
2. You cannot touch the dolphins (to prevent them from getting sick). The dolphins will not come close to play; instead, you will swim alongside them. (Generally, you will need to use the noodles to swim. It’s best to inquire directly if you can dive.)
3. Activities other than dolphin swimming (like whale watching and snorkeling) may vary in duration depending on the time spent on dolphin swimming. (In any case, dolphins tend to disappear around 9:30 AM to sleep.)
4. Although it’s not part of Japanese culture, if you are satisfied with the activity, consider giving a tip.

<Comment>
I’ve explained a lot, but it was truly a fulfilling time, and I wanted to express my gratitude to Kona Ocean Experience for providing this experience. I hope they continue this activity for a long time. If you’re unsure which similar tour to choose from, I highly recommend participating in this one!

２月中旬にこのアクティビティに参加し、長年の夢であった野生のイルカと一緒に泳ぐ夢がかない、本当に素晴らしい体験をすることができました。
船長は女性のBambiさんは、ハワイの海とイルカやクジラの生態を熟知しておられる方で
イルカが見られるポイント、海へ飛び込むタイミングの指示、船上でのおもてなしが最高でした。本アクティビティは少人数制なのでそれも良かったと思います。

<おすすめポイント>
① 船上での船長との会話はすべて英語となりますが、日本語専用のデスクを設けておられるので何かあったときには日本語でやり取りしてもらえます。(スケジュールの関係で連絡をしないといけないことがありましたが、日本語でご対応いただき助かりました)
② 少人数制であること。
③ ヌードル(棒状の浮き輪)があるので、多少泳ぎに自身がなくても安心。
④ マスク、シュノーケル、フィン、ウェットスーツを無料で貸し出ししてもらえます。

<参加したときの内容>
集合後、早速船に乗りイルカが見えるポイントへ。道中にはイルカが見えた時の待機のしかた、泳ぎ方などのレクチャーがあります。
実際にイルカが見えたときには、すぐに飛び込まずイルカの様子を伺い、私たちとイルカが近づけるチャンスを待ちました。その際、他のツアーの船などが往来し、イルカの速度があがったり逃げてしまったりで なかなか飛び込むことができない場合がありますが、船上から船長の指示をじっと待ち、GOサインがでたらいざ海へ！！そのあとはイルカに近づいて並走を楽しみました。
運よく早々にイルカと泳ぐことを楽しめたので、残りの時間でクジラ探しやシュノーケリング、船着き場へ戻る途中で海岸沿いを船で案内してもらいました。(船上では南国フルーツのおもてなしもありました！)

アクティビティ開始から約４時間でしたが、十分すぎる体験をすることができ、大満足でした。

<個人的 おすすめ持参品>
① 船上は屋根はありますが、日差しがきつい場合と、船での移動中は寒いときがあるので軽く羽織れる服を持参すると良いと思います。
② “使い慣れた”防水カメラを持参することを激しくお勧めします。イルカの泳ぐ速度は早いので、もたついていると撮影できません。(スマホのカメラは落とす危険があることと、起動に時間がかかる場合や画面が見づらいもありますので、、) また、防水カメラへは手から離れてしまっても浮くアクセサリを付けていると良いと思います。

<注意点>
① イルカは野生なので、日にちによっては見ることができない可能性もあるそうです。会えることを祈りましょう。
② イルカへは触れません。(イルカが病気になってしまう可能性があるため)　イルカ側から近寄ってきて一緒に遊んでくれるのではなく、泳いでいるところを一緒に泳がせてもらう感じでした。(基本、ヌードル必須で泳ぐことになると思います。潜水しても良いかどうかは直接お問合せいただいたほうが良いと思います。)
③ ドルフィンスイム以外(クジラ探しやシュノーケリング等)は、ドルフィンスイムにかける時間により、あったり短くなったりだと思います。(いずれにせよ、イルカは９時半ごろからは寝るために居なくなるそうです)
④　　日本の文化には無いですが、アクティビティに満足されたらチップを渡しましょう。

<コメント>
長々と説明しましたが、本当に充実した時間だったので この経験をさせてくださったコナ・オーシャン・エクスペリエンスに感謝したく、
これからも長くこのアクティビティを続けてもらえればと思って書き込みさせてもらいました。似たようなツアーがたくさんあってどれにしようか迷っておられるかたは、是非参加してみてください！

There were no Japanese people, but it was fun. 日本人はいませんでしたが、楽しかったです

Reviewed by: MA3

I found a similar tour that offered Japanese language support, but since this one was cheaper, I decided to join this tour instead. I passed by the Japanese tour group along the way, and they were following a similar course. The participants there were in their 40s to 60s, so the age group was a bit older.

In our tour, everyone except us was from Europe or America, so we spoke in English. They were friendly people in their 30s, which made for a fun atmosphere that I enjoyed. There were also some adventurous individuals who jumped off the rocks, so I think younger people would have more fun on this English tour.

The sun was strong, but I wore a long-sleeved rash guard, so I managed to avoid a bad sunburn. At first, I hesitated to leave my smartphone and valuables behind, but I was worried about them getting wet, so I decided to hand them over. As expected, I capsized once while kayaking on the way back and got soaked, so anyone going in the future should definitely leave their valuables before getting on the kayak.

似たようなツアーで日本語OKのものがあったのですが、値段が安かったのでこちらのツアーに参加しました。日本語ツアー組も途中すれ違ったので、似たようなコースを進んでいました。そちらの参加者は40～60代だったので高めの年齢層でした。

私たちのツアーは、私たち以外は欧米人だったので、英語でしゃべっていました。彼らは30代前後の友好的な人達だったので、私も楽しい雰囲気で楽しめました。
岩場から飛び降りたりしていたやんちゃな人もいたので、若い人ならこちらの英語のツアーの方が楽しめると思います。

日差しが強かったのですが、長袖のラッシュを着ていたので、ひどい日焼けはしなくて済みました。最初、スマホや貴重品を預けるのを躊躇したのですが、水没が心配だったので預けることにしました。案の定、カヤックで帰ってくるときに1回転覆してびしょびしょになったので、これから行く人は迷わず貴重品はカヤックに乗る前に預けた方が賢明です。

There is no towel rental, so you need to bring your own. It was still cold in January, and moving on the boat while wet with the wind made it extremely cold.

The tour itself was very good, but I felt it was a bit of a waste that I couldn't stay in the water for a long time because of the cold.

Also, since the explanations are in English, I thought it might not be suitable for those who are snorkeling for the first time.

The cruiser was large and the wind was strong, but it was okay. I was moved to see whales swimming to the right and left in front of the boat. However, there were no jumps, and I was a bit disappointed with just the body and tail. But I guess that's nature for you.

Maybe because it was an early morning, I was able to spend the day very leisurely. It was a wonderful experience. The staff were also very kind and it was a lot of fun.

クルーザーも大きく風が強かったがまあまあでした。
鯨も舟の先へと右へと左へとみることが出来感動でした。でもジャンプ等はなく胴体しっぽなどで少々期待外れ。でも相手は自然界しょうがないですね。
朝が早かったせいか、１日がゆっっくりと過ごせました。
とても素晴らしい経験でした。スタッフの方々もとても親切で楽しかったです。

Waipio Shuttle - An Exceptional Guided Sightseeing Tour of Waipio Valley

Highly recommend

Reviewed by: Brian and Marion

We had a great time on our tour. Our driver/guide Kaleo, who is from Waipio Valley was very informative and funny. Kaleo stopped to let us out so we could get a better view of Hiilawe waterfall. We also saw several wild horses up close The check-in at the gallery was easy and a great place to browse while waiting (we arrived early) We highly recommend this tour. We felt sorry for the people who decided to walk down because the walk back up is very steep.
