Kona Airport Shuttle Transportation (KOA) by Roberts Hawaii [Open Now]

Seamless

Reviewed by: Stephanie

What more could you ask for in a shuttle? The lady was at the airport with a sign with my name on it, gave me a shell necklace, brought me over to the driver who helped me with my bags. The driver was friendly, told us some interesting facts and got us to our hotel safely. My toddler traveled free and the fees were reasonable compared to other options. Wouldn't hesitate to book with them again.

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>

A glance チラッと

Reviewed by: tma

I was able to catch a glimpse of it three times from a distance. However, it was too far away to capture in a photo, and it was just for a moment. Still, I enjoyed the cruise. The staff couldn't speak any Japanese, but they were very friendly. Later, during the dolphin watching in Oahu, I was lucky enough to see whales up close several times, which was great.

遠くにチラッと3回ほど確認できました。
ただ写真には収まらない程の遠くで一瞬でした。
ただ、クルーズとして楽しめました。
スタッフの皆さんは一切日本語が喋れませんがとてもフレンドリーでした。
この後のオアフ島で参加したイルカウォッチングで偶然に何度もクジラを近くで見れたので良かったです。

Hawaii Lifeguard Surf Instructors - Kona Private & Semi-Private Surfing Lessons

Can't wait to surf again!

Reviewed by: Kona Lover

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. Very kind staff! The lesson on the land was a little long and repetitive, but very worth it for the water time. Jake and Tiffany were the best instructor!

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ(キングカメハメハホテル内)<ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

I'm feeling sleepy... 眠くなってしまった…

Reviewed by: アッコ

I have experienced various luau shows, but this one felt a bit lacking. The structure was stretched out, with a lot of band performances in between the hula. The meal was a 60 out of 100. I left early, so perhaps it got more exciting in the second half.

いろいろなルアウショーを体験しましたが、ここのルアウショーはちょっと寂しかったです。間延びした構成で、フラの合間のバンド演奏が多かった。食事は60点。途中で帰ったので、もしかしたら後半で盛り上がったのかもしれないですね。

I prepared myself for the cold, but on the day of the tour, the borrowed winter clothing was sufficient. There was no wind, so I was very lucky. The guide was attentive and responsive, and they skillfully used my DSLR camera (which I had just purchased and wasn't quite sure how to use), capturing the wonderful starry sky for me. I am grateful for the great photos they took. Not only was the guide knowledgeable, but I was also impressed by their ability to handle any camera, even in unrelated situations. The taste and portion of the bento were decent as well. I believe this is a tour I can confidently recommend.

寒さを覚悟で参加しましたが、当日は貸していただいた防寒着で充分。風もなく、とてもラッキーでした。ガイドさんの気配りや対応も良く、また私が持参した1眼レフカメラを器用に使いこなしていただき(購入したばかりで使い方がもう一つわからなかったので)、素晴らしい星空を撮影してもらえました。良い写真を撮っていただき、感謝しております。ガイドの知識だけではなく、どんなカメラでも使いこなせるんだなぁと、ツアーと関係のないところでも感激しました。お弁当の味やボリュームもまあまあです。自信を持ってお勧めできるツアーだと思います。

Dear Akko,

Thank you very much for participating in our tour. All of our guides bring their own DSLR cameras to take photos of our guests. The sunset tour is our most popular, and all the guests who participate tend to come back for more. It seems that everyone is captivated by the stunning views of Mauna Kea.

We hope you will visit the Big Island again next time. Our staff is looking forward to welcoming you from the bottom of our hearts.

Kona Airport Shuttle Transportation (KOA) by Roberts Hawaii [Open Now]

Requested pick up time not honored

Reviewed by: Ivan P.

My fight departure was 11:50pm, so I requested to be picked up at 9:45pm. However, upon confirmation I was notified the pickup time would be 7:45pm (take or leave it with no refund.) The ride took about 30 minutes, so I was at the airport around 8:15pm and had to wait more than 3 hours before boarding. So no complains about the ride itself, but it would be nice if my requested pickup time would have been respected.

It was amazing! 最高でした!

Reviewed by: さきさん

I was overwhelmed by the overly energetic staff and spent 7 to 8 hours laughing!

For the January trip, we gathered around 1 PM to match the sunset time, so I felt it was a bit of a waste to lose the entire afternoon, but that was absolutely not the case, and it turned out to be a very satisfying day.

During the ascent to the summit, they kept talking to us the whole time, and we were able to enjoy sightseeing until we reached Mauna Kea. The miso soup we had along the way was incredibly delicious.

The view from Mauna Kea is a must-see. Although the snowy scenery doesn't feel very Hawaiian, I was so happy to see such a beautiful sunset, starry sky, and moon!!!

Depending on the weather that day, it seems there might be times when you can't see the sunset or stars, but I believe the journey and the scenery along the way are enjoyable enough, and with the staff's attentiveness, you're sure to have a great time.

Thank you very much for booking Masashi's Nature School's sunset and stargazing tour. I'm very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour! The miso soup served along the way is delicious, isn't it? Having miso soup and a bento box at the top of the mountain is one of the highlights of the tour! (laughs) The view from Mauna Kea is amazing, isn't it? It really feels like a different world that you wouldn't expect in Hawaii! If you're coming to the Big Island, you definitely should climb Mauna Kea! (laughs)

While we can't guarantee the weather for the sunset and stargazing 100%, our guides do their best to move to locations where the stars are visible and to ensure customer satisfaction. I will definitely pass on to the guide that you were satisfied with your experience.

We look forward to your next visit to the island.

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>

It was the best experience. 最高の体験でした

Reviewed by: SYOUMA

Fortunately, we spotted a humpback whale right after leaving the harbor! And then, it jumped right in front of us! Both the guide and we were super excited.

Previously, I participated in a dolphin tour on Oahu, so this time I chose to see manta rays, which I had never seen before.

The crew was incredibly kind, and it was very reassuring to have staff who could speak Japanese.

We hopped on the boat and headed to the manta point!

During the ride, the sunset visible from the boat was stunning and moving. I tend to get seasick, so I took motion sickness medication from the start, which allowed me to enjoy the trip.

I was splashed with water, and my excitement was at its peak!

Upon arriving at the spot, I held onto the rope attached to the surfboard and waited for the manta rays to come close. It was a bit cold in the water during that time, but the guide checked on me several times, asking if I was okay.

When I actually saw the manta rays, the impact was incredible, and I was very moved. They were so close that I was really worried about accidentally touching them, but I was desperate to take photos.

On the way back, we were treated to hot chocolate and snacks, and there was a rather bitter ginger treat, which made me happy. This ginger was really delicious!

Since the wetsuits were wet on the way back, a bath towel is absolutely essential.

I spent a precious and happy time gazing at the beautiful starry sky over the dark sea.

ラッキーなことに港を出てすぐに、ザトウクジラを発見!!
そして目の前での大ジャンプ!
ガイドさんも私達も大興奮でした。

以前は、イルカのツアーをオアフ島で参加したので、今回は見たことがないマンタにしました。

クルーの方もすごく優しい事、日本語を話せるスタッフさんがいらっしゃる事がとても安心でした。

マンタのポイントまで、船に乗って、GO!

その際に、船から見える夕陽は、とても綺麗で感動しました。
私は船酔いが酷いので最初から酔い止めを飲んでおいたので楽しく
移動が出来ました。

水しぶきも浴び私のテンションはMAX!

スポットへ到着してサーフボードに付いてる紐を持って、ひたすらマンタが近寄ってくるのを待つ感じでした。
その間は水の中で少し寒かったのですが、ガイドさんが大丈夫?と何度も声をかけてくれました。

実際マンタを見ると、迫力がすごくて、とても感動しました。
とにかく近いので触れてしまわないかとてもとても心配でしたが私は写真を撮る事に必死でした。

帰りには、ホットチョコレートと、スナック、かなり苦いですがジンジャーの差し入れがあり、嬉しかったです。
このジンジャーがかなり美味しかった!

帰りはウェットスーツも濡れてるのでバスタオルは絶対必須です。

真っ暗な海を綺麗な星空を見ながら幸せな貴重な時間を過ごさせていただきました。

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!

It became my best memory of the trip to Hawaii. ハワイ旅行一番の思い出になりました

Reviewed by: ERI

From the hotel pickup, thanks to the high-energy and entertaining talk of our tour guide, Macchan, I became friends with the other participants, and it was a tour filled with laughter from start to finish. Considering the various knowledge about nature, safe driving on steep mountain roads, and the best tour adjustments based on the day's weather, I’m really glad I participated in this tour instead of going on my own.

I heard that Macchan is also studying photography, and he took many beautiful photos with a DSLR. I was able to download stunning shots of the starry sky, sunset, and group photos that I couldn't capture with my mirrorless camera, which became wonderful keepsakes.

I was truly impressed by Macchan's hospitality! Thank you very much for everything. Next time, I want to show my parents that breathtaking view.

ホテルピックアップの時からツアーガイドまっちゃんのハイテンションな面白いトークのお陰で、他の参加者の方々とも仲良くなり、終始笑いの絶えないツアーでした。また、自然に関する様々な知識、険しい山道の中での安全運転、その日の天候に応じた最善のツアー等を鑑みると、自力で行くのではなくこのツアーに参加していてよかったと思います。
カメラの勉強もなさっているとのことで、一眼レフできれいな写真を沢山撮影してくださり、持参したミラーレスでは写せなかった星空やサンセット、集合写真等も無料でダウンロードでき、とてもいい記念になりました。

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.

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

Very satisfied! 大満足!

Reviewed by: Yuka

We experienced this with my husband at the end of the year. For those who will participate in the future, I highly recommend bringing a knit hat and a neck warmer. While ski wear is provided, your head will be cold!! They did lend us knit hats (and I gave in to the cold), but I felt a bit hesitant to wear a hat that someone else had worn (laughs). Also, I wore thick socks, so I didn't mind, but many people mentioned their ankles were cold, so I think wearing high-top shoes or boots, or socks that cover the ankles would be a good idea.

This is our experience, and as the title suggests, it was a very satisfying tour! First of all, the best part was the weather!! Since it's something we can't control, it was really great that it was sunny, and we could see the sunset and the starry sky beautifully. Next, we were able to take a lot of photos! I brought a DSLR camera, but it was cold at the summit, and my hands were freezing, so we couldn't take good pictures ourselves. However, the instructor took many photos of the scenery and us with their DSLR. The photos taken with the starry sky are ones we definitely couldn't have captured ourselves, so I was really happy about that. It became a wonderful memory of our trip to Hawaii!

年末に主人と体験してきました。
これから参加する人は、ぜひ、ニット帽、ネックウォーマーを持っていくことをお勧めします。
スキーウエアは貸してもらえるけれど、頭が寒い!!
ニット帽も貸してもらえたけれど(そして、寒さに負けたけど)、誰かがかぶった帽子をかぶるのは、ちょっと抵抗を感じました(笑)
あと、わたしは厚手の靴下をはいていったので気になりませんでしたが、足首が寒いと言っている人が多くいたので、ハイカットの靴とか、ブーツとか、足首の隠れる靴下をはいていくといいと思います。

私たちの体験談ですが、タイトル通り、大満足!なツアーでした。
まず、1番よかったのは、天気!!
私たちの力ではどうにもならない部分だけに、晴れていて、サンセットも星空もきれいに見えたのが本当に良かったです。
次は、写真をたくさん撮ってもらえたこと!
一眼カメラを持って行ったけど、山頂は寒くて、手も冷たくて、なかなか自分たちでは上手に撮ることはできませんでした。でも、インストラクターさんが持ってた一眼で、景色も、私たちの写真も何枚も撮ってくれました。星空と撮ってもらった写真は絶対に自分たちでは撮れない写真なので、うれしかったです。
ハワイ旅行のいい思い出になりました!

Also, as you mentioned, a knit hat is a good idea since it can get cold on your head and ears. I'm really glad to hear that you were satisfied with the beautiful weather during your visit.

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

The talk with Matsucchan was so lively that it blew away the mountain top closure. 山頂クローズが吹き飛ぶ程の松っちゃんトーク

Reviewed by: まっちゃん頑張って。

On the day of our visit, the summit was closed due to strong winds, but we were laughing from the car at the guide's talk. It wasn't just comedy; we were all surprised by the guide's extensive knowledge and techniques, almost like a home appliance comedian. We were able to take many beautiful and fun photos. Even though the summit was closed, the guide negotiated uniquely to secure a great spot for stargazing, allowing us to see it perfectly without anyone else around.

当日は強風で山頂クローズでしたが、車中から案内時のトークに笑い転げてました。しかしただのお笑いではなく、まるで家電芸人の様な豊富な撮影知識とテクニックに一同びっくり。綺麗で楽しい写真をたくさん撮る事が出来ました。クローズでも独自の交渉で星空観察ポイントも良い場所確保してもらい他店のいない所でばっちり見られました。

Thank you very much for your kind comments, even though we were unable to guide you on the day when the summit was closed. I'm truly glad that you were able to see the starry sky. We will continue to strive to improve our guiding skills and photography techniques, so please do reach out to us again on your next visit.

Once again, thank you very much for this opportunity.

Reviewed by: H family

Our guide was very knowledgeable and attentive to detail. Viewing the volcano in the light and then at night was awesome. The restaurant was so cozy and had great food. Afterwards we hiked thru a fern forest to a lava tube. Amazing!

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.
