ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック&シュノーケルツアー 海中洞窟探検プランあり <早朝・午前/日本語ガイド>by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

First kayak experience 初カヤック

Reviewed by: かじまり

It was my first time kayaking, but I managed to move forward somehow. I went snorkeling, and I felt a bit anxious when I couldn't return to the kayak, but I somehow got back on board like a beached tuna. It was fun!

初めてのカヤックでしたが、なんとか前に進めました。
シュノーケリングをして、カヤックに戻るのができないので、一瞬不安になりましたが、打ち上げられたマグロのように乗り込んでなんとか戻れました。楽しかったです。

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 <フライト50分/英語パイロット/ヒロ空港発>

Aerial sightseeing tour 空から見学ツアー

Reviewed by: best0077

In November 2017, I booked a helicopter tour to see the lava flowing into the sea and the magnificent nature of Hawaii Island. However, the result was that there was no lava flow at all, and the tour only included a view of a small waterfall called Rainbow Falls. Since Rainbow Falls can be accessed by car, I really wanted to encounter nature that could only be reached by helicopter. The flight time was also quite short, about 45 minutes from takeoff, which is too brief. If you're going to go, you need to choose a longer tour to truly enjoy it. Riding in a helicopter is nice in itself, but longer tours can be quite expensive, so it's a tough decision.

2017年11月に溶岩が海に流れ落ちる様子とハワイ島の壮大な自然を見るためにヘリコプターで申し込みしました。
結果、溶岩は全く流れ落ちる事無く、壮大な自然もレインボー滝という小さな滝を眺めただけのツアーとなりました。
レインボー滝は車でも行けるのでヘリでしか行けない自然に出逢いたかったです。
ヘリの飛行時間も離陸から約45分でこれでは短すぎますね。
行くなら長時間のツアーにしないと堪能出来ませんね。
ヘリに乗るという事自体が良ければ良いですが、長時間ツアーですと費用がかなりかかるので迷い所です。

Kona Glassbottom Boat & Guided Coral Reef Tour with Marine Naturalist

Informative!

Reviewed by: Scott Reimer

My girlfriend broke her ankle trying to go snorkeling so going again was out for us. The next best thing or better even was this tour; Kat, our guide, answered every one of our questions and it was super fun! We saw all kinds of critters and fish and it felt like you were under the waves yourself! Clear and colorful! I’d do it again, and the price was the most reasonable of all the activities we’ve tried so far on the Big Island ;)

Private Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour from Hilo

Fun tour

Reviewed by: Meredith

We really enjoyed our trip to Volcanoes National Park! We walked in a lava tube with headlamps on at night and the kids absolutely loved it. Then we saw lava from a viewing deck at the museum using binoculars and I will never forget that. We also felt the steam from several steam vents coming out of the ground, and we hiked through a rain forest down to the bottom of a crater and walked on an old lava flow. Very memorable visit! Our tour guide was very informative and made sure we got to see and do everything.

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

Excellent narration, food and drive

Reviewed by: Richard V.

This was my second trip up to the summit of Mauna Kea for the Sunset & Stargazing Adventure. The drive up this time was smoother than the first, thankfully, and our guide was excellent. You could tell he was well-informed on all the topics he discussed. The catered Hawaiian dinner was very tasty, and in sufficient quantity to satisfy a good appetite. The only drawback this time was that the clock-drive on the telescope was not working, which took away from our ability to look at celestial objects at high magnification. I recommend this trip, and also that the tour company repair their clock drives!

プライベートチャーター ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー!GoProレンタルあり<午前/日本語ガイド>

I was able to meet a lot of dolphins. たくさんのイルカに会えました

Reviewed by: ミカコ

When we gathered, the guide mentioned that on the same tour a few days prior, they hadn't encountered any dolphins, which made me a bit worried. However, we were lucky to see many dolphins!

After heading out to sea, I learned that usually, they swim slowly towards where the dolphins are, but that day, there were unusually many dolphins coming towards us.

While we were fortunate, I believe it was also thanks to the guide who chose that location. The guide decides where to wait for the dolphins.

The boat ride took about 30 to 40 minutes, but the guide shared various stories about the Big Island, dolphins, and whales, making the journey enjoyable. It was also nice that it wasn't a large group tour, but rather a small one. Thank you very much.

集合したときガイドさんに、私が参加した数日前の同じツアーでは全くイルカに出会えなかったと聞いて心配になりましたが、運よくたくさんのイルカに会えました。
沖にでてからも、いつもはイルカのいるほうへ少しずつ泳いで移動するそうですが、その日はいつになくたくさんのイルカが来てくれてたそうで、イルカのほうから寄ってきてくれる感じでした。

運もよかったですが、その場所を選んでくれたガイドさんのおかげでもあると思います。どのあたりでイルカを待つかはガイドさんの判断だそうです。

船での移動は30~40分ほどありましたが、ガイドさんもハワイ島やイルカやクジラのいろんな話をしてくれたので、移動中も楽しく過ごせました。一度に大勢参加するツアーではなく少人数でのツアーだったのもよかったです。
ありがとうございました。

I was able to see three pieces! 3枚見られました!

Reviewed by: りんちゃん

Three manta rays appeared and circled around us, which was exciting. Two family members got seasick and seemed to need motion sickness medication. The boat was fast, and since it was nighttime, it was quite a unique experience. There was no explanation for snorkeling, so those who are not accustomed to it might panic, especially since it was in the pitch dark sea, and there were elderly people who seemed to be in distress. It might be worth considering this more carefully. I was fine since I am a diver, but for those who are not familiar with marine sports, the spray from the boat constantly hitting their faces could be tough. After it was over, despite being cold, we were handed cold bottled water. The Japanese staff were cheerful and very kind, and I enjoyed our conversations. At the end, there was an explanation about tips, and I had prepared some, but when I got off the boat and changed, there were no staff left as they had already left for the next tour. This meant I had to prepare the tip while feeling cold and drenched, which was a bit challenging considering I had a lot of luggage.

3枚のマンタが現れて、周りを旋回してくれて、エキサイティングでした。

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>

I've never seen a scene like this before! こんな光景初めて!

Reviewed by: msugar

It was a tour that my husband, who loves the ocean and animals, had been longing for. The large rubber boat we boarded just before it got dark was thrilling, almost making us feel like we would be thrown off due to the speed and waves, but we all arrived at our destination while squealing with excitement. We quickly grabbed onto a long float and began observing the mantas. As we floated still, mantas came one after another, starting to spin while opening their large mouths incredibly close to us. I had never seen such a sight! It was breathtaking. While waiting patiently for the mantas, I felt a bit of chill, but when they came close, I forgot the cold and was completely captivated. I think this is definitely an experience you should have when visiting the Big Island of Hawaii.

海と動物が好きな夫が切望していたツアーでした。暗くなる直前に乗り込んだ大型ゴムボートはスピードと波で振り落とされそうなほどスリリングでしたが、乗客皆でキャーキャー言いながら目的の場所に着きました。すぐに長い浮きに捕まってのマンタ見学となり、じっと浮いているとマンタが次から次へとやってきて、信じられないほど近くで大きな口を開けながらクルクルと回転しはじめました。こんな光景は見たことない!感激でした。ジッとマンタを待っているときはちょっと寒さが沁みてきますが、マンタが近くに来てくれたら寒さも忘れて見入ってしまいました。ハワイ島に行ったら是非体験するべきオプションかと思います。

If you go thinking it's a touristy show in Honolulu, you might be a bit disappointed. The dinner didn't quite suit my taste either. Since the prices aren't exactly cheap, I think next time I'll book shows in Honolulu instead. It was outdoors, so it was very windy and cold at night. Honestly, I felt like I wanted to spend my time and money on something different.

ホノルルの観光客向けのショー的な感じと思って行くとちょっとがっかりするかも。ディナーもちょっと私の口には合わなかったです。値段も決して安いわけではないので、同じ払うなら、次回から、ショー関係はホノルルで予約すると思います。屋外であったので、とても風が強く、夜も寒かった。正直、もっと違うことに時間とお金を使いたいなと思いました。

I didn't come to eat plankton like on TV. テレビみたいにプランクトン食べには来なかった

Reviewed by: 小木アリッサ

When we arrived at Sheraton's Point, we saw the shadow of a manta ray and immediately jumped into the water, but it never showed up. We held onto a flat rope while waiting, but it swayed with the waves and moved below, so it wasn't much support. Eventually, I grabbed onto the board directly. I was only breathing through my mouth, swaying up and down and side to side, and after half of the people got seasick and gave up to return to the boat, a few manta rays finally passed by, and that was the end of it. I chose a company that allows you to participate again if you don't encounter manta rays, but since I did see a few, I consider it a graduation of sorts. People who participated with two other companies on the same day said, "As soon as we got in the water, a manta did a flip right in front of us," and "We saw so many," which made it even more disappointing that we didn't have a day with manta rays. There were clouds on the horizon, and we were unlucky enough not to see the sunset, which was highly rated in the reviews.

シェラトン沖のポイントに着くとマンタの影が見え、すぐ海に入りましたが、その後一向に現れませんでした。
平たい紐に掴まって待ちますが、波にユラユラ漂うし下にも動くので支えにならず、途中からボードに直接掴まりました。
口呼吸のみで上下左右に揺られ続け、半数の人が気分が悪くなりギブアップして船に戻った後、ようやく数枚のマンタが通過して行き終了。
マンタに遭遇出来なかったら再度参加出来る会社を選びましたが、一応見られたので卒業。
同じ日に別の2社で参加した人達は「海に入るや否やマンタが鼻先で宙返りした」「いっぱい見られました」と言っており、マンタがいなかった日ではない所がさらに残念です。

If you have the opportunity to visit Hawaii and the big island is on your agenda, the tour to the top of Mauna Kea is a must do !! The journey up and down the mountain is exhilarating, the views on the way up, stunning and the views from the top at sunset - unforgettable!!!!
Of course the weather gods can have their say and you could be unlucky.
Very impressed by the capability of our driver Joe who also made our star gazing even more memorable with his explanations and knowledge.

You can only have this kind of experience in Hawaii. It's just so close! In fact, we encountered them several times. As soon as we turned on the LED lights on the SUP boards for everyone to catch, the mantas came right over.

It was like a scene from an aquarium. They are just so big. They swim by really close with their mouths open, eating the plankton attracted by the light. They are about the size of two people, which is a bit scary.

By the way, before reaching the mantas, we also got to see a very beautiful sunset.

It was a thoroughly satisfying tour!!

こんな体験はハワイしかできない。とにかく近い!というか何度か当たりました。。
そしてマンタと遭遇するタイミングが早い早い。みんなで捕まる用のSUPボードのLEDライトを点けるとすぐにマンタが寄ってきました。
水族館で見るような光景。とにかく大きい。光で集まったプランクトンを食べているので、口を空けたままめちゃ近くをすれ違います。人間二人分くらいの大きさかな。ちょっとこわいくらい。
ちなみにマンタの場所に到達する前にとても美しい夕日も見られます。

プライベートチャーター ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー!GoProレンタルあり<午前/日本語ガイド>

A wonderful experience. A memory for a lifetime. 素晴らしい体験。一生の思い出

Reviewed by: りんごジュース

I encountered a large number of dolphins—countless, really. On this day, I was lucky to spot dolphins right after getting on the boat. We swam with them for about an hour without moving. The dolphins jumped and were very playful.

In the water, some were sleeping while others were active; the active ones would come up to the surface and then swim close to us repeatedly. The sleeping ones floated in deeper waters. The sound of the dolphins chirping could be heard all around, making it a truly precious experience.

This tour might be canceled soon, but I’m really glad I was able to participate. By the way, even if you can't swim, they provide flotation devices, so you can still join. If you go to Hawaii, you definitely should do this! Lastly, thank you so much to the captain who took us back and shared various things about Kona.

大量のイルカちゃんと遭遇。数え切れないくらい。。
この日はラッキーで船で移動してすぐにイルカと遭遇しました。そしてそのまま移動することなく1時間程泳いでました。
イルカもジャンプしてくれたり、サービス精神旺盛です。
水中は寝てる子と活動してる子がいて、活動してる子は気ままに水面に上がっては近づいての繰り返し。寝てる子は深いところでプカプカ。
イルカのキュイキュイという声があちらこちらで聞こえていて、とても貴重な体験となりました。
もしかしたらもうすぐ中止になってしまうかもしれないツアーですが、参加できて本当に良かった。
ちなみに泳げなくても浮具を貸してくれるので参加できます。ハワイにいったら絶対やったほうがいいです!
最後に、帰り送っていただいた船長さん、コナのことも色々教えて頂いて、本当にありがとうございました(*^^*)

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>

There were a lot of fish! お魚たくさんいたよ~

Reviewed by: ふぃーちゃん

We arrived early with the rental car, applied sunscreen, and were fully prepared! However, despite that, my calves and the back of my thighs got really sunburned from snorkeling. Among the dozen participants, we were the only Japanese couple. We traveled by speedboat and arrived at the snorkeling spot, where the water was clear and there were plenty of fish. We had sandwiches for lunch and moved a little, but during the second snorkeling session, there wasn't much change since we only moved a few hundred meters, which was disappointing. On the way back, we stopped at several places eroded by waves, and the captain explained everything in English, but we were completely lost. We also encountered a pod of dolphins, and the dolphin jumps were heart-melting.

レンタカーで早めに到着、日焼け止めを塗って準備万端!
それでも、シュノーケルの体制から、ふくらはぎから太もも
の裏がメチャ焼けました。
十数人の参加者の中で、日本人は私たち夫婦のみ
スピードゴムボートで移動し、シュノーケルスポットに到着
透明度も良くお魚もたくさんいました。
お昼にサンドイッチを頂き少し移動、二度目のシュノーケルでしたが、
数百メートル移動しただけなのであまり変化無しでそこは残念でした。

もちろん英語で、私たちはチンプンカンプン((+_+))
イルカの群れにも会えドルフィンジャンプに胸キュンでした。

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>

A sudden close encounter just once. 一度だけ急接近

Reviewed by: ふぃーちゃん

I waited for several minutes at Manta Spot, holding onto a surfboard with a light and grip. I spotted a manta ray on the ocean floor! It was far and dark, but then, just once, the manta ray approached quickly while showing its belly! That was the only time I saw it. I was surprised by the number of divers on the ocean floor compared to the manta rays.

ライト付きサーフボードにグリップが付いた物につかまりマンタスポットでひたすら待つ事
数十分、海底にマンタ発見!遠いし暗いし・・・と思っていたら一度だけお腹を見せながら
マンタが急接近!!それっきりでした。
マンタより海底にいるダイバーの数にビックリでした。

Aloha!! Fi-chan

Thank you for participating in the manta tour.
I hope you had an experience that is hard to come by in Japan.
When you visit Oahu again, we also have tours for dolphin middle school and university, so we look forward to seeing you again.
