Day Trip from Kona to Oahu - Complete Pearl Harbor Tour with Lunch & Airfare Included

Big Island Blast

Reviewed by: Laura

Garfield was a truly excellent tour guide. His stories made the tour a lot of fun. He managed to give a lot of detail about the history of Pearl Harbor and the Missouri and not make it seem like a history lesson. The only thing that would make it better was it it was longer. You can't see the whole island in a day, but we got to see some of the most important spots.

I would thoroughly recommend the tour and make sure to ask for Garfield.

Our Helicopter ride over the Big Island was the highlight of our trip. Seeing lava so close was once in a life time! Joel our pilot was awsome and had a great knowledge of the island. He put us at ease with his profesionalism and personality. What a great time!

Pearl Harbor/Oahu

Our guide Garfield was excellent. He really knew a lot about the island. Although we experienced rain on & off all day, he managed to keep our tour enjoyable.

I would highly recommend this trip. Although you don't see the entire island due to time constraints, it is a thoroughly enjoyable trip.

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>

Volcano from the sky 空からボルケーノ

Reviewed by: 東京 ミク

This was an activity I had wanted to experience for the past two or three years, and I finally got to fulfill my wish.

I wanted to see the scene of lava flowing into the sea, but since it's a natural phenomenon, it can't be helped.

The helicopter noise I had imagined was not bothersome, so it was an enjoyable experience.

2,3年前から一度体験したかったアクティビティでしたがやっと念願かないました。

溶岩が海に流れ落ちる場面を見たかったですが、自然現象なのでやむを得ないですね。

想像をしていたヘリの騒音は気にならなかったので楽しい体験でした。

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>

It was magnificent. 壮大でした

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The helicopter was safer and more comfortable than I expected. It was fine even with a little wind.

The staff's service was very kind, allowing me to enjoy the experience with peace of mind.

Throughout the journey, there was a detailed explanation by the pilot, Jason, but unfortunately, it was only in English, and I could only understand parts of it. Since conversations could only be done through the microphone, even if I said, "Wow, the volcano is amazing," the person next to me couldn't hear it.

That aside, the scenery was magnificent, dynamic, and beautiful. You can see the main points of the Big Island in about two hours, so even if you don't fully understand the explanations, I think it's a very worthwhile attraction.

 
 へりは思ったより安全で、快適でした。ちょっとくらい風が吹いても大丈夫。

 スタッフのサービスはとても親切で、安心して楽しむ事ができました。

 全行程でパイロットのジェイソンさんによる丁寧な解説がありましたが、残念ながら英語のみで私は部分的に分かる程度でした。マイクを通してしか会話ができないので、「わ~火山がすごいね~」とか言っても、隣の人に聞こえないのでした。

 そんなことはさておき、風景は壮大で、躍動的で、美しいハワイ島の主要なポイントを約2時間で見れるため、解説があまり分からなくても、参加する価値がある、とてもいいアトラクションだと思いました。

Kayak trip

Reviewed by: Tony

My wife did the early morning 3.5 hour trip and we loved it. This was the first time that me and my wife had ever kayaked, the tour guides show you how to do everything from balancing your kayak to getting in and out of your kayak in the open ocean. We seen a pod of dolphins on the way out of the bay, that was great, then we followed the shore line. at one point we were able to paddle into a small cave with a blow hole, and then several members of the tour jumped off the cliff over the cave. It was a bit too high for us so we watched. But we were able to paddle out before the rest with one guide and when we were just around the corner the same pod of dolphins swam under and by us. Several of the dolphins were within touching distance of our kayak. My wife was so in awe she could barely get the camera out! The snacks were yummy and the guides wonderful!. We were able to wander and snorkel at a second sight that had a cove and a shorter cliff that we jumped off! If you can take t

all I can say about this tour is "wow" if you have never ever paddled in a kayak befor no problem with on tour your guides will teach you how get in and balance yourself, how to hold your paddle, how to paddle toeghter, how to get in and out of your kayak in open water even if you have never done it before because that person was me. My wife and I had the best time toeghter trying to see everything thats going on around you. After they show you how to do everything you just start paddiling out of the bay with your guides along the coast line. Just as we rounded the corner a pod of dolphins swaw by us they were about 100 yrds away from us but what a treat. We stoped for a short break and they showed us how to get in and out of the kayak in the open ocean, then we went cliff to the blow hole paddled in and out of the cave jumped off the cliff then went around to another bay to have lunch and snorkle. Well all I can say we were the first around the corner with our guide and a pod of dol

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

An even more beautiful sea. さらに、さらに綺麗な海

Reviewed by: ゆか

We participated with our family on October 9. The sea in Hawaii Island is more beautiful than that of Oahu, and it's even more stunning than the White Sands and Keauhou in Hawaii Island, making it impossible not to get in. The boat is a catamaran, so there’s no rocking, and the kids jumped in dozens of times from the slide and diving board. It was also great to have fresh water showers available. The location is just a three-minute walk from the Sheraton where we were staying. I highly recommend it.

10/09に家族で参加してきました。
ハワイ島の海はオアフ島より綺麗なのですが、ハワイ島のホワイト・サンドやケアウホウよりも更に綺麗な海で、入らずにはいられません。船もカタマランなので揺れることも無く、滑り台やジャンプ台など、子供たちは何十回と飛び込んでいましたし、真水のシャワーがあるのもよかっです。
場所はシェラトンに宿泊していたので、歩いて3分といったところです。お薦めします。

Captain Zodiac Kealakekua Bay Snorkeling Tour & South Kona Sea Cave Expedition

Captain Cook trip on Captain Zodiac

Reviewed by: David and JoAnn Judd

If you like snorkelling mixed with a little history, this trip is a must. We have snorkelled all over Hawaii and this is as good as it gets. The water is crystal clear, the coral is beautiful, and the fish, turtles, and spinner dolphins just complete a perfect day! Captain Ken tells you all about the monument and the events that led to Captain Cook's demise. As we arrived at Captain Cook, we found ourselves in the middle of a pod of well over 150 spinner dolphins who were playing in the area that day. They remained there the entire day! And on the ride home, we had a lot of fun mixed with several stops at caves or other points of interest where Ken would tell you the 'story' or explain the legend! This was just a great trip to a beautiful location. We will do it again the next time we am on the Big Island!

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

It was cloudy, but... 曇りでしたが・・・。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This was my second time in Hawaii, and I participated in snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay. Unfortunately, the weather was unusually cloudy for Hawaii that day. I was worried about whether I would be able to enjoy the beautiful sea, but I was able to enjoy it nonetheless.

By the way, I tend to get very seasick, and that was my only concern, but I managed to get through the trip without any seasickness.

I have participated in snorkeling several times in Japan and Hawaii, but this was the most beautiful and enjoyable experience. Since it was a memorable trip, I’m glad I was able to create good memories. I definitely want to participate again next time.

 今回2回目のハワイで、ケアラケクワ湾の主ノーケリングに参加しました。残念ながら当日はハワイでは非常にめずらしい曇り空でした。当日は曇りで、きれいな海が見られるのか心配でしたがきれいな海を楽しむ事ができました。
 ちなみに私は非常に乗り物酔いがはげしく唯一それが心配でしが、船酔いもなく無事に過ごすことができました。
 今まで何度か日本国内やハワイでのシュノーケリングに参加したことがありましたが今回が一番きれいで楽しめました。記念の旅行だったので良い思い出ができよかったです。
是非、次の機会にも参加したいと思います。

Wasn't exactly what we expected

Reviewed by: The Hawkes

I am sure it was my error in not reading the "Sunset Sail" part. We had thought that we had booked a sunset dinner cruise. Instead it was a sail boat! It was still an enjoyable experience, especially since we did take Dramamine before boarding. LOL However, for the person with sea legs it would be a great thing to experience.
