I saw a whale flapping its tail right in front of me. I was satisfied because I got to see it up close multiple times. Along the way, I also encountered a pod of dolphins. The explanations were in English, but I was able to understand most of it.

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

A blissful time, but be careful of the tidal currents in the shallows and the sea urchins! 至福の時間、でも浅瀬の潮の流れ、ウニには注意‼︎

Reviewed by: まちゃ

My trip to the Big Island always includes this snorkeling cruise.

First, we enjoyed a breakfast of fresh fruits and muffins. Along the way, we encountered whales and dolphins, and then headed to Captain Cook's destination. We had a fantastic time snorkeling in the beautiful sea and indulged in a BBQ lunch with hamburgers on board.

During snorkeling, even though I was in shallow water up to my knees, the current was strong, and I was swept away, becoming a feast for sea urchins. Thanks to my fins, I managed to protect the soles of my feet, but I ended up with 30 spines in my left ring finger, 20 in my right index finger, and countless others that I discovered later. I thought I had to remove them right there, so I endured the pain and pulled them out, somehow making it back to the boat. I was pushed back by the waves multiple times, leaving my knees and thighs covered in cuts and bruises, and I had significant bruising on my ribs, but the pain from the sea urchin stings was unbearable. My left ring finger swelled up black and was completely immobile, and even a light touch caused excruciating pain... the power of the sea urchin is terrifying.

The staff treated me with vinegar, which eased the intense pain a bit, but it was still an extraordinary level of discomfort. If you are careful about the current in shallow waters and the sea urchins, you can have a wonderful time!

ハワイ島の旅は、必ずこのシュノーケルクルーズに参加しています。
まずは新鮮なフルーツとマフィンの朝食。
途中、クジラやイルカにも出会え、その後キャプテンクックの目的地へ。
とってもきれいな海でシュノーケルを十分に楽しみ、船上BBQで、ハンバーガーのランチを堪能。
今回、シュノーケルをしている時に、膝下ぐらいしかない浅瀬にもかかわらず、潮の流れが強く、身体がどんどん流され、見事にウニの餌食…
足ヒレのお陰でなんとか足裏はガード出来ましたが、左手薬指に30本、右手人差し指に20本、その他後から傷口見たら数え切れないほどの長い針が刺さってしまいました。とにかくその場で抜かねば、と思い、痛みをこらえ抜き取り、なんとか船へ戻りました。何度も潮に押し戻されたので膝と太腿は切り傷にアザだらけ、肋骨は打撲とかなりの怪我でしたが、ウニに刺された部分がとにかく痛すぎでした。左手薬指は真っ黒に腫れ上がり全く曲げられず、ちょっと触るだけでも激痛…恐るべしウニパワー…
ヴィネガーが良いとのことで、スタッフが処置してくれ激痛が気持ち和らぎましたが、尋常ではない痛みでした。
浅瀬の潮の流れ、ウニにはくれぐれも気をつけさえすれば、素晴らしい時間が過ごせます‼︎

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 was able to see it about 12 times. 12回ほど見られました

Reviewed by: よこりん

The meeting time was 7:30, but we were actually called to the boat around 8:00. I guess it's the laid-back Thai time… I was a bit disappointed since I woke up quite early.

The meeting place is very hard to find; it's the building on the beach adjacent to the Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort. It feels more like a makeshift hut than a beach house.

The weather was great on the day, and we were able to see whales about 12 times. My mother, who joined me, seemed very satisfied! However, it was quite cold, so having a windbreaker or something similar would be a good idea.

The explanations were only in English, and there were no brochures or anything. They will say, "Look in the direction of the time!" in English, so please make sure to look quickly in that direction!!

When getting off the boat, you will get wet up to your knees, so I definitely recommend participating in a skirt or pants that can be rolled up!

7:30集合でしたが、実際に船に呼ばれたのは8:00〜でした。
南国タイムなのでしょうか…だいぶ早起きしたので、少し残念に思いました。

集合場所がとてもわかりづらいですが、ワイコロアビーチマリオットリゾートホテルに隣接しているビーチの建物です。
海の家というよりは、掘建て小屋のような感じです。

当日は天気も良く、12回ほど鯨を見ることができ、一緒に参加した母も大満足の様子でした!
なお、とても寒かったので、ウインドブレーカーなどあった方が良さそうです。

説明は英語のみで、特にパンフレットなどはありませんでした。
「○時の方向を見て!」と英語で言われるので、迅速にその方向を見てください!!

下船時、膝まで濡れますので必ずスカートやまくり上げられるパンツでの参加をオススメします!

I was worried that the helicopter might be canceled due to an unexpected eruption until the day of the flight. I'm glad we were able to fly safely. The view from the powerful helicopter and the sight of the eruption were breathtaking. However, I wished I could have seen the volcano up close a bit more. Well, I suppose safety reasons prevent that.

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Dinner - Hawaii Forest & Trail

Could have been Outstanding

Reviewed by: George

First off The Two outstanding parts to this tour was Jeff; The Tour Guide and The Stars. Tour Guide Jeff, detailed intellect to the stars was fun and educational without being obnoxious. Felt very fortunate to have him as our guide. Even though the clouds didn’t corporate fully that evening the Sunset was astounding even at nine thousand foot elevation.
The Rudeness of One Local Park Ranger that evening was disappointing to witness by all in the group. He made a big deal to our Tour Guide to move the company van by honking his horn repeatedly when all he had to do was ask politely Not Nice. The other disappointment was The Gift Shop closing very early and while they were closing the gift shop personnel Didn’t allow access to the Restroom for the many guess that were present at the time. Gift shop took about 15 minutes to close up shop and during that time could’ve allowed access to Restrooms. Thank You Jeff !!! for saving our visit

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Dinner - Hawaii Forest & Trail

Out of this galaxy experience

Reviewed by: Gabe

First off, big thanks to Jeff for being an entertaining and super knowledgeable guide. Great customer service as well. They called us early on in the morning to let us know, to our dismay, that we wouldn’t be able to get up to the summit for our particular trip (due to many weather related circumstances that were out of their control). It was a huge bummer, but like I said, still 100% worth it to attend the abbreviated version of this excursion. I’m more of a street smarts kinda guy if you know what I mean, Jeff made everything so easy to understand and so interesting to everyone attending the trip. He was able to answer every single question we had. I swear the guys a living encyclopedia. Long story short there should be no hesitation on your part to take this once in a lifetime trip. Set aside the funds you need to experience this NO. MATTER. WHAT.

It was so lucky to sit next to the pilot! The best view and nice weather. Kind and well-experienced pilot. It was expensive but worth trying.

Just the recording of the flight for US$40 was too high. And the conflict with the USB being ready and the bus schedule was too tight.

NB: Check my pick-up time on the voucher!!! It was actually the flight schedule. I was about to miss the biggest event of the trip!!!

That was your Veltra mistake.

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ キャプテン・ゾディアック号 クジラと近距離&スリル満点!ラフティングボートツアー<午前・午後・夕方/12~3月/カイルアコナ発>

Acrobatic maneuvers! The dolphins jump in happily! アクロバティックな操縦!イルカたちが楽しそうに飛び込んでくる!

Reviewed by: Kana

I participated in this tour because it allows you to get close to whales on a small boat during whale watching. There were four Japanese participants, including my mother and me. The rest were all travelers from the mainland United States, including some small children. The captain's guidance and announcements were all in English, but he entertained us with his cheerful demeanor and acrobatic maneuvers.

The boat sped out to sea faster than I had imagined. Passengers clung to the ropes attached to the boat, and the small children were held by their mothers. The first sighting was a pod of dolphins. Their synchronized swimming was very soothing. Additionally, we were fortunate enough to encounter a group of manta rays, which seems to be rare. As for the whales, at first, we could only see them blowing water from a distance, but in the end, we saw one diving right next to the boat. It was thrilling to see it swim directly beneath us.

We had a juice and snack break on board, and on the way back, we encountered another pod of dolphins. The captain created round waves on the surface with his acrobatic steering, and the dolphins joyfully jumped in, which was incredibly cute! It was a thoroughly satisfying tour.

However, I forgot to take motion sickness medication and ended up feeling a bit groggy, so I definitely recommend taking it. Also, since the boat moves at quite a high speed, it might be a bit dangerous for those who are not confident in their ability to hold on or for elderly individuals. I highly recommend this tour for those who love thrill rides or want to see marine animals up close!

ホエールウォッチングの中でも小さな船でクジラに近付けるということで、こちらのツアーに参加しました。日本人参加者は私と母を含めて4人。ほかは全員アメリカ本土からの旅行者で、中には小さなお子さんも。船長のガイドやアナウンスはすべて英語ですが、ノリのよさとアクロバティックな操縦で楽しませてくれました。

船は想像していた以上のハイスピードで沖へ。乗客は船についているロープにしがみつき、小さなお子さんはお母さまが抱いていらっしゃいました。最初に現れたのはイルカの群れ。規則的にグループで泳ぐ姿にとても癒されました。また、これは珍しいようですがマンタの群れにも遭遇することができました。そして肝心のクジラですが、最初は遠くのほうで潮を吹いている姿しか見られなかったものの、最後には船のすぐそばで潜水。そのまま船の下を通っていく姿を間近でしっかりと見られて感動しました。

船上でのジュース&お菓子タイムを挟みつつ、帰り道にはまたもイルカの群れに遭遇。すると船長がアクロバティックな操縦で水面にまあるい波を起こし、そこにイルカたちが楽しそうに飛び込んできてとてもかわいかったです...!最後まで大満足のツアーでした。

ただ酔い止めを飲み忘れてしまいグロッキーになったので笑、必ず酔い止めは飲んだほうがいいです。また船はかなりのハイスピードで進むので、つかまる力に自信がない方やお年寄りには少し危ないかもしれません。絶叫マシンが好きな方や海の動物を近くで見たい方にはとってもおススメです!

I was really able to swim with dolphins. The experience was incredibly moving! Looking back now, I'm glad I was able to make a reservation!

Although I had no snorkeling experience and went out into the ocean, thanks to the support and advice from the swim instructor, I was ultimately able to see the dolphins up close, and I'm really glad I went!

The captain loves the ocean, dolphins, and whales more than anything, and I realized that because of that love, there is so much he can understand and teach us. His love for the animals was overflowing, and that's why we were able to have such an amazing experience. He also assessed the spots from a professional perspective, making for a very satisfying time.

I would love to participate again once I can snorkel! Thank you very much!!!

シュノーケリング未経験で沖に出てしまった私ですが、スイムインストラクターの方のサポートやアドバイスで最終的にはイルカを間近で見ることができて本当に行ってよかった!です。
船長さんが何よりも海、イルカ、クジラなどのことが大好きで、大好きだからこそわかること、教えられることがたくさんあるんだなと思います。動物たちへの愛が溢れていて、だからこそ私たちの体験が得られたんだなと思います。ポイントもプロの目線で見極めてくれてかなり満足な時間でした。

The captain and the swim guide were both Japanese with blue eyes, and their love for the sea radiated from them.

Perhaps we were lucky with the timing, as we were fortunate enough to see whales, which got everyone on board very excited.

The dolphins we aimed to see were not at an easily accessible spot, but they knew the locations where we could feel closer to them. If I have the chance to come back to the Big Island, I would love to participate again.

"Professional Dolphin Finder" 「イルカ探しのプロ」

Reviewed by: テツヤ

Dolphins are wild creatures, so there's no guarantee that you'll see them, but this tour offers a high probability of encountering them. The reason for this is that the instructor drives the boat and selects snorkeling points based on the dolphins' behavior that day. They also provide detailed instructions to help you see the dolphins up close. When the dolphins appeared right in front of us, I was very excited. I believe this is the only tour where you can see wild dolphins up close with such a high probability. I had a really great time participating. Thank you!

イルカは野生の生き物なので必ず会えると言う保証はありませんがこのツアーは、ほとんどの確率で会えます。
それは何故かと言うと、インストラクターの方が船を運転してその日のイルカの調子でポイントを選んでシュノーケリングをするからです。
またイルカを間近で見るために細かい指示をしてくれます。
今回イルカがの前に現れて、とても興奮しました。これだけ高い確率で野生のイルカを間近に見ることができるツアーはここのツアーだけだと思います。
参加できてほんとに楽しかったです。

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 fun! I'm very satisfied! 楽しかった! 大満足!

Reviewed by: トビー

We participated as a family of four. Our family was the only group on the tour, and we had one female guide with us. After preparing the saddles, we received instructions on how to ride and handle the horses. Everything was in English, but as long as you closely follow the guide's movements, you'll be fine! The handling instructions were just four basic commands: "go," "stop," "right," and "left," so it wasn't difficult.

And finally, we set off! Along the way, we even challenged ourselves to a canter while climbing up the vast ranch towards the mountains, and when we looked back, the stunning view of the Kohala Coast came into sight. It was a wonderful view, and I'm sure you can enjoy a refreshing feeling.

All the horses are well-trained and safe, but each horse has its own personality. The horse I rode seemed to dislike mud and chose to walk on dry ground, even if it meant staying away from the other horses. In contrast, the horse my wife rode seemed to love water and splashed right into the puddles. While we experienced a bit of the difficulty in controlling the horses, it was a fun time. I highly recommend that everyone try this experience!

[Additional Note]
The wind from the mountains felt cold, so even if it's sunny, I think it's better to borrow a jacket. Also, the horses will walk through puddles and muddy areas, so your shoes might get wet or dirty, so it's advisable to borrow boots as well. Both are available for free.

家族4人で参加しました。ツアー参加者は私たち家族のみ。ガイド役の女性が一人付いてくれました。鞍の装着などの準備が整い、次に馬の乗り方や扱い方の説明を受けました。全て英語ですが、ガイドさんの動きをよく見てその通りにすれば大丈夫! 馬の扱い方といっても『進め』『止まれ』『右に』『左に』という4つの基本的な動きの伝え方だけなので難しくありませんでした。
そしていよいよ出発です。途中、駆け足にも挑戦しながら広大な牧場を山の方に向かってどんどん登っていき、振り返るとコハラコーストの絶景が目に飛び込んできました。素晴らしい眺めです。爽快な気分が味わえるはずです。
どの馬もよく調教されていて危なくはありませんが、各々の馬に個性があります。私が乗った馬は「ぬかるみ」が嫌いらしく、他の馬から離れてでも乾いたところを選んで歩きました。と思えば妻が乗った馬は水に入るのが好きなようで水たまりにジャブジャブと入ります。思い通りに動かす難しさを少々味わいながらも楽しい時間でした。皆さんもぜひ体験してください!

【追記】
山からの風は冷たく感じましたので晴れていてもジャケットは借りたほうがいいと思います。また、水たまりやぬかるんだところを馬が進みます。靴が濡れたり汚れたりすることもあるかもしれませんのでブーツも借りたほうがいいと思います。いずれも無料でお借りできます。

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>

First helicopter experience はじめてのヘリコプター体験

Reviewed by: みにゃ

My first helicopter experience was enjoyable. I requested a Japanese pilot, but when my reservation was confirmed, I was informed that it would be an English-speaking pilot, so I was glad I could participate with that understanding in advance. Although I'm not a native speaker, I was able to understand, and it turned out to be a very good experience! Unfortunately, the Kilauea volcano was calm, so it wasn't what I had hoped for, but I was able to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Big Island of Hawaii, and it was worth the price!

はじめてのヘリコプター体験、楽しかったです。
日本語パイロットリクエストしましたが、予約確定時、英語パイロットと、お知らせが来ましたのであらかじめ理解の上参加できたのが良かったです。
ネイティブではありませんが、理解出来、とてもよい体験になりました!
残念ながら、キラウエア火山は沈静化していましたので期待したものではありませんでしたが、雄大なハワイ島の景色を眺めることが出来、お値段の価値はありました!

An unforgettable experience on the Big Island of Hawaii! 初めてのハワイ島で感動体験!

Reviewed by: 宮古島も好き!

I was truly impressed by Captain Daisuke's feelings of closeness to the dolphins and whales, as well as his desire to entertain us participants. Thanks to Swim Guide Ray's accurate advice, we were able to swim among the pods of dolphins. It was a deeply moving experience for me. I will definitely return to the Big Island next year during whale season!

船長ダイスケさんのイルカやクジラに寄り添う気持ちと、参加している私達を楽しませたい、という気持ちにとても感服しました。
またスイムガイド・レイさんの的確なアドバイスでイルカちゃん達の群れの中にお邪魔させてもらい泳ぐことができました。
初めての体験に心から感動でした。
また来年クジラの季節にハワイ島で
リピートさせて頂きます!

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ キャプテン・ゾディアック号 クジラと近距離&スリル満点!ラフティングボートツアー<午前・午後・夕方/12~3月/カイルアコナ発>

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: おきた

It takes about 10 minutes by car from the town of Kailua-Kona to the office. There were no other Japanese tourists besides us; most of the participants were from the mainland United States. Instead of a cruise ship, we boarded a boat to head out to sea. Along the way, we encountered a pod of dolphins and saw many whales up close! We got soaked on the boat, but that was also a fun memory. Snacks and water were provided during the trip. I would love to participate again if I visit the Big Island during the season.

カイルアコナの町から車で10分くらいでオフィスに着きます。
ツアー客は私達のほかに日本人はおらずアメリカ本土から来ている人がほとんどでした。
クルーズ船というよりもボートに乗り込み沖まで行きます。
途中イルカの群れにも会え、クジラにも沢山、そして間近で見る事が出来ました!!
ボートで沖まで行くのでびしょ濡れになりましたが、それも楽しい思い出です。
途中スナックと水を貰えます。
またシーズンにハワイ島に行けば参加したいです。

I was able to see it many times! 何回も見ることができました!

Reviewed by: Katsutoshi

I was thrilled to see the whales jump multiple times. The boat rocked, but I was so focused on searching for the whales that I didn't feel seasick and enjoyed myself.

クジラのジャンプを何回も見ることができて感激しました。船は揺れましたが、クジラを探すことに夢中になっていたため船酔いもなく楽しめました。

It was moving! I felt like I made eye contact with a dolphin! I was able to swim right next to a pod of dolphins! I want to swim with Daisuke again! I will keep in touch with everyone I was with, and starting tomorrow, I will work hard dreaming of the day I can swim with the dolphins and all of you again! I hope Daisuke can swim with the blue whale too!

感動です!イルカと目が合った気がしました!イルカちゃん達の群れのすぐ横で一緒に泳げました!だいすけさんとまた泳ぎたい!ご一緒させて頂いた皆さんとも連絡取り合って、またいつかイルカとみなさんと泳げる日を夢見て明日から頑張ります!だいすけさんもシロナガスクジラと一緒に泳げますように

First whale watching experience. 初めてのホエールウオッチング

Reviewed by: anko

Since my accommodation was in Kailua-Kona, I had to make my way to the meeting point on foot. However, the public parking was difficult to find, which made me quite anxious, so it's necessary to check in advance. The tour exceeded my expectations as I was able to see whales up close, which was fantastic. However, the boat does rock quite a bit, so I think those who are prone to seasickness should prepare accordingly.

滞在先がカイルアコナだったので地力で集合
場所まで行かなければならなかったですが
パブリックパーキングが判り辛く、かなり焦り
ましたので事前のチェックが必要です。
ツアーの内容は予想以上に近くでクジラを
見る事が出来て大変良かったです。
ただし、船はかなり揺れますので、船酔いの
心配な方はそれなりに準備した方が良いと思います。

I saw a whale. クジラ見えた

I was able to see whales from a distance. Watching the whales swimming leisurely as a couple was soothing, and I definitely want to participate again!

遠目でしたが、鯨を見ることが出来ました。ユッタリとカップルで泳ぐ鯨達を見て癒やされました、ぜひもう一度参加したい!
