Big Island
Seeing the sun set above the cloud line is a once in a lifetime experience. Our guide, Fernando, made the night that much more enjoyable with the knowledge (and parkas) he shared. After the spectacular sun set we went further down the mountain to star gaze. The telescope he had was amazing, and it was super cool to see so many, and different, stars we see at home. This was a 10 out of 10 experience and I would highly recommend it..
I from the Mid-West so seeing a dolphin was never on my bingo card so I thought! This establishment was great and so helpful. The pictures were amazing and I will never forget the experience!
Three of my kids participated in the swimming with the dolphins and LOVED IT! One even said it was the best day of her life! It was very informative and Patrick had a really great personality and interacted with well with all the participants in the group. I highly recommend going to Dolphin Quest at the Hilton Waikoloa!
Great place. My teens greatly enjoyed the experience and Grace was fantastic.
This is such a wonderful experience! Very well run, and like nothing else!
The hula dance was very beautiful and relaxed, which eased my mind. The flowing dresses that matched the movements and the graceful fingertips were elegant. The Tahitian dance was powerful and impressive. I really enjoyed the Hawaiian atmosphere. I'm glad I came to see it.
Dancing myself was fun, even though it was just for a short time during the meal. Many people left during the cool time when they took a break for dinner, but since the dance continued until 8 PM, I was happy to see it until the end.
If you're staying at the Hilton Waikoloa Village Hotel, I recommend going to see it.
フラダンスはとても美しくゆったりとしていて心が和らぎました。動きに合わせて流れるようなドレスも、滑らかな指先も優美でした。タヒチアンダンスは迫力があって圧巻でした。ハワイ気分を満喫できました。見に来てよかったです。
自分でダンスをするのは、食事の席で短い時間でしたが楽しかったです。
途中で食事時間を取るクールタイムに帰ってしまう人が大勢いましたが、20時までダンスはあるので最後まで見れて良かったです。
ヒルトンワイコロアビレッジホテルに泊まるなら、見に行く事をお勧めします。
Even if you have a priority reservation, it's better to arrive earlier than the meeting time to get an even better seat. If you're sensitive to alcohol, it's definitely best not to drink. It would be
優先予約をしていても集合時間より早く行ったほうがさらに前のいい席に着けます。アルコールに弱い方は絶対に飲まないほうがいいです。眠くなったり、気分が悪くなって、ダンスを見逃したらもったいないです。

How often can you get a kiss from a dolphin!? For me, this is once in a lifetime experience.. at least until I I come back and do it again!! The dolphins were great to interact with, our dolphin handler really ensured we all had time to interact with the dolphins. And Jennifer made sure that we understood how to appropriately interact with them. Always wonderful when animal handlers ensure the welfare and safety of the animal is a priority.
Initially, the day I had reserved was canceled due to bad weather. The staff kindly assisted me, and I changed it to another day. On the rescheduled tour date, the weather was favorable, and the staff's service was excellent, making it a fun day.
当初、予約した日が天候不良で欠航でした
スタッフの方が親切に対応していただき、他の日に変更しました
ツアー変更日は、天候に恵まれ、スタッフの対応もよく楽しい一日にになりました
マハロ（ありがとう）ご参加いただき、天候のためにクルーズの日程を変更しなければならなかった際にご理解いただきありがとうございます！クルーズを楽しんでいただけてとても嬉しいです。
Mahalo for joining us and for being so understanding when we had to change your cruise date due to weather! We're so happy you enjoyed your cruise.

We had an awesome experience with Blue Hawaiian. We weren't able to experience the complete experience because of poor weather over Volcano National Park but Blue Hawaiian did an excellent job of working with us to create an alternative tour for us. Dale was great as our pilot and tour guide.
If you can, book the the volcanoes and waterfall tour
Unfortunately, the weather on the day was not great, and we couldn't do the planned flight over the volcano, which was disappointing. However, the alternative suggested was a landing plan at the waterfall. When I signed up, I thought it was a bit pricey, so I didn't include the waterfall landing, but adding that option turned out to be a great decision!
The view of the waterfall from above and the experience of landing right next to it are completely different in terms of impact. Walking through the tropical rainforest after descending was refreshing, and it was fascinating to see various fruits along the way. Since we could land in places that only a helicopter can reach, I highly recommend the waterfall landing!
We had the helicopter to ourselves as there were five of us in the family. The seating arrangement is determined by weight, so those who got to sit in the front row or on the ends were lucky.
当日はあいにくのお天気で予定していた火山上空へのフライトは出来ず残念でしたが、代わりに提案いただいたのが滝の着陸プラン。
申し込んだときはちょっとお高いので滝への着陸はつけていなかったのですが、オプション付けて大正解！！
上から見たと滝と着陸して間近に見る滝とでは迫力が全然違うし、滝を降りての熱帯雨林のお散歩は気持ちよく、様々なフルーツも見れてとても興味深かったです。ヘリじゃなくちゃいけないところに着陸できるので、滝の着陸、おススメ！！
家族5人で乗ったので貸しきりでした。
体重などによって乗る場所が決まるので、最前列や両端に載れた人はラッキー。
Definitely the waterfall option!
滝オプションぜひ！

We had a wonderful time watching an impressive Hawaiian show. As the night got cooler, it might be a good idea to have a cardigan or something to wear during the winter.
圧巻のハワイアンショーを見ながら素敵なひと時を過ごしました。夜になるにつれて肌寒かなったので、冬はカーディガンなど羽織があると良いかもです。

What a wonderful experience to get close to dolphins! My daughter (11) loved it so much. She got to swim with the dolphins and work with the trainer to give commands to the dolphins. It was so exciting to see all the amazing knowledge these beautiful creatures have. The trainers provide so much information as to the care and conservation of dolphins.
Our guide was excellent, very knowledgeable and prepared and our experience was unique with the viewing of a huge shooting star crossing the sky as a prelude to the eruption of the volcano in the distance. Unforgettable, thank you!
Bring warm clothes and wear boots.
This tour is long but well worth it. We were picked up at the Starbucks, Queen’s Shopping Center, Waikoloa Beach Resort. We drove to the Mauna Kea Visitor’s Center where we had a very nice dinner. Next we went to the summit to view the telescopes and sunset from almost 14,000 feet. We the viewed the night sky through telescopes in almost complete darkness. Our driver and guide, Arthur, was fantastic. What a great experience!
Thanks to the captain and the naturalist, I was able to encounter whales at an incredibly close distance. I was told it was a very lucky experience.
船長やナチュラリストのおかげで、ものすごく至近距離でクジラに出会えました。とってもラッキーなことだと言われました。
I think it's better to go dressed in a way that can handle getting wet.
濡れても大丈夫な格好で行く方がいいと思います。
ありがとうございます！私たちの船にご参加いただき、感謝します！
Mahalo for joining us onboard!

We set sail to catch the sunset. Enjoyed some snacks and cocktails while feeling a bit tipsy. Spotted a whale in the distance. We had the best sunset experience on the Big Island of Hawaii!
サンセットに合わせて出航。スナックとカクテルでほろ酔い。遠くにクジラを発見。最高のハワイ島サンセットを楽しみました！
Since you'll be going barefoot when getting on the ferry from the sandy beach, it's best to wear sandals.
砂浜から渡りボートに乗る際に裸足になるのでサンダル履きがよいですよ。

We had a great time on the glass bottom boat tour with our toddler. He loved seeing the fish and hearing about the coral reefs. It was his first time on a boat! The tour guide was very informative and was so happy to share all information he had about the island.
Aloha,

Saw everything from volcanos to waterfalls and both sides of the island
The atmosphere was really nice under the beautiful moon. Both the show and dinner were excellent! It was a wonderful experience on the Big Island of Hawaii!
月も綺麗な下で、とにかく雰囲気がとても良かったです。
ショーもディナーも、最高でした！
ハワイ島での素敵な体験になりました！
It might be better to go early since the parking lot was full.
駐車場がいっぱいだったので、早めに行った方がいいかもしれません。

The buffet had a wide variety of food and drinks, and I definitely overate. The Hawaiian songs and dances were also enjoyable. The sunset view in the background was lovely.
バイキングの料理も、飲み物も豊富で、食べ過ぎました。ハワイアンの歌や、踊りも楽しかったです。
背景の夕焼けの景色もステキでした。
The piña colada, a cocktail made with coconut milk and pineapple juice, was very delicious. I definitely recommend it.
ピナコラーダというココナッツミルクとパイナップルジュースのカクテルはとても美味しかったです。
ぜひ、おすすめします。

Our invoice said to check in at 4:15 but when we got there they said check in was 5:15 after checking in we waited another hour to enter and then dinner and the show didn't start until 7 pm! That was almost 4 hours of waiting. The show and dinner was great but the wait time was terrible.
Very relaxing and educational experience. My family and I really enjoyed it.
Wear sandals and pants no longer than capris. Your feet and ankles will get wet.
Aloha,
Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback about your Glass Bottom Boat Cruise. We're so happy to read that you and your family enjoyed the trip. And your tip to wear shorter pants and shoes that can get wet is spot on -- we board the boat via a ramp at the shoreline. Depending on ocean and wind conditions at the time of your cruise, you may get wet up to your knees accessing the ramp (though our crew is stationed at both the bottom and top of the ramp to help with those transitions).
We know there are a lot of activities to choose from when you're on the Big Island and we're honored you chose to join us onboard and that we've earned your recommendation.

This experience went beyond our expectations! It was perfect length in time, didn’t feel rushed at all! The trainer was very knowledgeable and friendly. We had an amazing time!
The performers were beyond amazing.
The table service was excellent.
The food was excellent - so delicious!
The price for premium upgrade- disappointing.
The ambiance could have been more authentic rather than long rows of very crowded tables and unbearable heat for the first 90 minutes before sunset.
Closer to the water maybe? Sail shaped tarps for shade maybe?
Definitely recommend.
Dress light. Bring a hand fan.
Expect some rude people to walk up for a better look & block view
Worth every second! The trainers make the experience so special and being so close to the dolphins was a once in a lifetime experience. Loved every minute!
We were traveling with young kids who were not really into snorkeling.. so we were looking inexpensive ways to look at some beautiful marine life. This was perfect for us. 5 minutes walk from our resort. Friendly, knowledgeable and more importantly patient staff. Luckily we kind of got a private tour as there was no one else at the same time as ours.
Kids loved it, we loved it too. Definitely recommended!!

It is an experience with my 3.5 year old daughter I will never forget, and I think she will remember forever. The trainer was very informative and great with kids. It’s clear how much they care about the dolphins, and the dolphins love what they do.
This was an incredible experience for my eight year-old grandson for his birthday. Parker was wonderful and even had the dolphins sing happy birthday to my grandson.
The content of the show was excellent! However, the service at the Hilton hotel was disappointing. When I checked in at Hilton's Kingsland, the concierge advised me to arrive early to secure a seat, but when I actually went, I couldn't enter until the scheduled time. Despite having reserved a premium seat, I was made to wait in the general line. There were people who were allowed to enter preferentially, while we were left waiting and then admitted as general attendees. The event was held at a completely different location than what the concierge mentioned. What is the point of having a concierge??? But the show was absolutely fantastic.
ショーの内容は最高でした！
が、現地ヒルトンホテルの対応はいただけない。
ヒルトンのキングスランドにチェックインの際にコンシェルジュに確認したときは早めに行って席を確保したほうがいいといわれたのに実際に行くと時間まで入れずプレミアムシートを予約していたにも関わらず一般の列に並ばされた。
優先的に入っていく人たちもいたのに我々は待たされた挙句一般で入場。
コンシェルジュの言ってた全く違う場所での開催でした。なんのためのコンシェルジュ？？？
でも、ショーは最高によかったです。
It's better to clearly communicate the details of the ticket.
チケットの内容をきっちりと伝えたほうがいいです。

Love the dolphins. Was a great experience with my animal loving 9 year old and rest of the family.
