Reviewed by: お試し

The weather was sunny with occasional clouds, but there was wind, and it was surprisingly cold. The sandbar had water levels up to my knees. Snorkeling at the coral reef had life jackets available, but it seemed deep and was scary for the children. We were lucky to see a sea turtle while snorkeling.

天気は晴れ時々くもりでしたが、風があり、意外と寒かったです。サンドバーは膝下くらいの水位でした。サンゴ礁にてのシュノーケリングは、ライフジャケットはありましたが、深くて子供には怖かったようです。シュノーケリングではウミガメも見れてラッキーでした。

I am satisfied with the content of the tour, but it ended up being a tour with a bad aftertaste. ツアーの内容には満足していますが、後味が悪いツアーになりました。

Reviewed by: じゃすみん

I participated in a breakfast-only tour.

It rained on and off from the time we departed until we reached Angel's Beach, but we were able to see sea turtles, and by the time we arrived at Angel's Beach, the weather had cleared up, so I am satisfied with the tour content.

For this tour, we traveled to the site with two buses, but one of the pick-up buses took a long time to arrive... In the end, it was about 45 minutes after the first bus left that they finally came to pick us up.

The guide who was with us on the way seemed to leave because they were going to the next tour time, and they said, "Please wait here. If it rains, wait over there (at the public restroom with a roof)!!" which made me feel very anxious.

I never expected to feel so uncomfortable just because the buses were different, even though it was the same tour. It's really disappointing because the content of the tour was very good.

朝食のみのツアーに参加しました。
出港時〜天使の海に行くまでの間雨が降ったりやんだりを
繰り返していたのですが、ウミガメは見ることができましたし、天使の海に着いた頃には晴れていたのでツアーの内容には満足しています。

今回のツアーは２台のバスで現地まで行ったのですが
迎えのバスのうち１台がなかなか来ず。。。
最終的に１台目のバスが出発してから４５分ほどたってやっと迎えに来てくれる・・・といった感じでした。

行きにはいてくださったガイドさんも次の時間帯のツアーにいくからなのか
【ここで待っていてください。雨が降ったらあそこ（屋根のある公衆トイレ）で待っていてください！！】という言葉を残し、行ってしまったのでとても不安な気持ちになりました。

同じツアーなのに
バスが違うだけでこんなに嫌な気持ちなるなんて思いませんでした。
ツアーの内容はとてもよかったので残念でなりません。

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＞

Rafting & snorkeling ラフティング＆シュノーケリング

Reviewed by: KEIKO　SASAKI

There were four adults participating (my husband and I, along with my niece and her husband). The weather on the day was very nice, not as hot as I had expected, making it a wonderful day for rafting. We were the only Japanese participants, but the woman at the tour company's office was very kind and accommodating. I needed prescription goggles for the water, but I forgot to request them when I made the reservation. However, I called the day before, and they managed to have them ready for me.

The snorkeling was a bit different from what I had imagined. I was expecting a clearer sea, but it was murkier than I thought. Perhaps it was due to the location? They provided the necessary goggles for snorkeling, but they were old, and I experienced some water leakage, which meant I had to clear the water several times, so I ended up getting out early. If I had brought my own perfect-fitting gear, I might have enjoyed it more. The lunch was delicious! Eating burgers and fruit on the water was exceptional.

I have relied on VELTRA's tours several times, so I felt comfortable trusting them. Next time, I would like to participate in a different tour.

おとな４人（私たち夫婦と姪夫婦）の参加でした。当日はとても天気が良く思っていたほど暑くもなく素晴らしいラフティング日和でした。日本人の参加者は私たち４人だけでしたがツアー催行会社の事務所の女性がとても親切に対応してくれました。水中眼鏡の度が入ったものが必要だったのですが予約の時に頼み忘れてしまっていたのですが、前日電話でお願いし何とか間に合わせていただきました。
シュノーケルのほうは私が思っていたのとはちょっと違っていました。というのももっときれいな海を想像していたのですが思ってより濁っていたのです。場所のせいでしょうか？それからシュノーケルに必要なメガネなどは貸していただけるのですが古いせいでしょうか水漏れがして何度も水を抜く必要があったので私は早めに上がってしまいました。自分にぴったりのものを持っていけばもっと楽しめたのかも・・。ランチはおいしかったですよ！
バーガーもフルーツも海の上で食べるのは格別でした。
VELTRAさんのツアーには何度かお世話になっているので安心して頼むことができました。
次回は他のツアーに参加したいと思っています。

It was cold! 寒かったー！

Reviewed by: Sayaka

Even in Hawaii, it was cold in December. The half-day course was just right. I recommend it as a trial for those who want to try snorkeling. Since you just swim back and forth while looking at the coral, it was fine even if you’re not very confident in your swimming skills. As others have commented, the sandbar depends on the timing of the tides, so it was a bit disappointing. However, I was happy to see not only sea turtles but also manta rays!

ハワイと言えども、１２月寒かった。半日コースでちょうど良かったです。
シュノーケリング始めてみたい方にはお試しとしてお勧めです。
行列を作りながらサンゴを見て往復するだけなので泳ぎに多少自信がなくても大丈夫でした。
サンドバーは他の方もコメントしている通り、潮の満ち引きのタイミングもあるので残念ながらといった感じでした。
ただし、ウミガメはもちろん、マンタも見られたのでhappy!でした！

イルカ中学　野生のイルカ＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ！＜少人数制／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可／日本語／ランチ付き＞

Wild dolphins 野生のイルカ

Reviewed by: fmak23

I swam with wild dolphins! It was early in the morning and I was tired, but overall I think it was great.

First, we had an early pickup, and we were staying at the Sheraton Princess Kaiulani, but the pickup location was at Sheraton Waikiki. It was a bit far, and I was wondering about it, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding. That's a bit disappointing.

After getting on the bus and receiving explanations, the stories were interesting and got me excited despite the early hour! The driving was a bit rough, which was nerve-wracking, but funny.

Once we arrived, we took a bathroom break and quickly changed into our wetsuits while taking some photos before boarding the boat for equipment explanations and departure. The captain had a great personality, which added to the excitement.

Maybe we were lucky, but about 5 to 10 minutes after departure, we finally spotted the dolphins! I dove into the sea and got to see the dolphins up close. I was moved by the clarity and beauty of the ocean while enjoying snorkeling with the dolphins. They swam surprisingly fast, and we only had about 3 to 5 minutes to see them each time, but we got back on the boat, moved ahead of the dolphin pod, and dove in about three times before heading to a spot with sea turtles!

That spot also had high water clarity, which was very impressive. The sea turtles were quite relaxed and didn’t swim away even when we got close. Just remember, you must not touch them!

We were also able to hand-feed beautiful fish!

Even though it was Hawaii, since it was December, the wind was cold when we got out of the water and moved on the boat. I recommend bringing a beach towel or something light to wear.

Also, since it was early in the morning, the ABC store was closed, and I went without breakfast, but I ended up feeling sick on the way back due to hunger, the tightness of the life jacket, and the boat's rocking. So, I recommend having a proper breakfast and bringing motion sickness medication if you’re prone to it.

野生のイルカと泳いで来ました(^^)
朝早くで疲れたけど総評としては良かったと思います。
まず朝早くピックアップなのですが自分たちはシェラトンプリンセスカイウラニに泊まっていたのですが、ピックアップ場所はシェラトンワイキキになってました。ちょっと遠いし疑問に思っていたのですが後に判明したのですが勘違いでしたようです。ちょっと残念ですね(^^;
バスに乗ってから説明など受けてその話とかが面白く朝早いのにテンション上がりました!
多少運転荒いのでハラハラしますが笑
ついてトイレ休憩して早速ウェットに着替えて写真をとってもらいつつ船に乗り込み用具などの説明を受け出港です。
船長さんのいいキャラもあってワクワク(^^)
運がよかったのか、出港から5～10分くらいで念願のイルカ先生が!!!
海にダイブして生イルカ先生を拝みました(^-^)v
海の透明さと綺麗さに感動しつつ、イルカをシュノーケリングしながら堪能しました。
以外と泳ぎが早く、1回つかって見れる時間が3～5分程度でしたが、また船に乗り込みイルカの群れに先回りしてまたダイブしてっていうのを3回くらいして次はウミガメがいるポイントへ移動!
そのポイントもまた海の透明度が高く大変感動しました。
ウミガメは結構のんびりしていて近くでも逃げませんでした。決して触ってはダメですよ笑
餌をもらえて綺麗なお魚さんに手渡しで餌をあげることもできました！

ハワイといえど自分は12月だったので海から上がってボートで移動する際の風が寒かったですね
ビーチタオルや軽く羽織れるものをもっていくことをお勧めします。
それと朝はやかったのでABCもあいてなくて朝食抜きでいったのですが空腹とライフジャケットの腹部の締め付けとボートの揺れで帰り気分が悪くなりましたのでしっかり朝食をとって酔いやすいかたは酔い止めの持参をお勧めします。

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＞

This tour allows you to fully enjoy the thrilling waters of Hawaii! スリル満点のハワイの海を満喫できるツアーです！

Reviewed by: マートン

We participated as a couple. It took about 30 minutes by rental car from our accommodation in Waikoloa. You won't miss the big marlin sign along Highway 19 at the Honokohau Marina where the office is located.

We arrived at the office at 8:45, and our departure was at 9:15. After checking in, all participants signed a document outlining the disclaimers. Our boat had a total of 13 people on board, consisting of two American families on vacation from the mainland and a solo male traveler besides us. There were three staff members, including the captain.

The boat we boarded was a sturdy rubber boat. Holding onto the rope with one hand and placing one foot under the rope at the bottom, we experienced quite a jolt as we traveled for about 40 minutes to Kealakekua Bay. My hands started to hurt, so the captain stopped the boat at various points to share stories and explanations about the Big Island, mixed with jokes, but it was all in English, which might be a bit challenging for those who aren't proficient. However, I don't think it would be too problematic. The topics included the island's volcanoes, elevation, climate zones, and the legend of Pele, so there weren't any groundbreaking discoveries.

Nevertheless, from the sea, you can clearly see the plants and colors of the land changing gradually, showcasing the differences in climate zones on the island. On the way, we were able to see several whales. Many boats approach them, so if you keep an eye out for those, you'll spot them.

Kealakekua Bay also has a monument where Captain Cook landed. While you can't go from the sea to the land, the deep blue sea and steep cliffs are truly beautiful. This bay has a large amount of freshwater bubbling up, and as you get closer to the cliffs, the water gets cold and your visibility becomes hazy, but that means it's rich in nutrients, and there are many colorful fish.

The water is deep, and you can't touch the bottom, but the boat provides life jackets and tubes. We swam for about an hour, returning to the boat whenever we liked to eat sandwiches, drinks, snacks, and fruits. Then we would go back into the sea to swim again.

On the way back, we stopped at several lava caves. The waves were high that day, so we didn't go inside the caves, but on calm days, you can enter. Then, when we got offshore, we encountered a huge pod of about 200 dolphins! We were chased by playful baby dolphins and spinning dolphins, and we enjoyed about 20 minutes together heading back to the marina, experiencing the island's great nature.

夫婦で参加しました。
宿泊先のワイコロアから、レンタカーで30分。事務所があるホノコハウ・マリーナは19号線沿いに大きなカジキマグロの看板があるので見逃しません。
8:45に事務所に着き、出発は9:15。チェックインして、免責事項が記載されている書類に参加者全員がサインします。
私たちのボートは全員で13人が搭乗、私たち以外は全員メインランドからバケーションに来ていたアメリカ人の家族2組と1人旅の男性。スタッフはキャプテン含め3人です。
乗るボートは丈夫なゴムボートというイメージ。
片手でヒモをしっかり持ち、片足を底の部分にあるヒモの下に入れ、かなりの衝撃を受けながら40分くらいかけて、ケアラケウア・ベイまで行きます。
手が痛くなるので、キャプテンが要所要所で船を止めてくれ、ハワイ島に関する話や説明をジョークを交えながらしてくれますが、全部英語で不得意な人にはちょっとついていけないかもしれないです…。でも特に困ることもないと思います。ハワイ島の火山や標高、気候帯、ペレの伝説等なので、ものすごい新たな発見がある話はなかったです。
けれども、海から見る島生えている植物や土地の色がははっきりと段々に変わっていて、この島の気候帯の違いを見ることができます。
行きにくじらを数頭見ることができました。多くの船が近付いていくので、それを目印に目を凝らせば見つかります。
ケアラケウア・ベイはキャプテン・クックが上陸した記念碑もあります。海から陸地に上がることはできませんが、真っ青な海と切り立った崖は本当にきれいです。
この湾には大量の淡水が湧き出ていて、岸壁に近づくと水が冷たく、視界がぼやけますが、それだけ栄養分が多く、色とりどりの魚がたくさんいます。
水深は深く、足が届くところはありませんが、ボートにはライフジャケットやチューブを貸してくれます。
1時間くらい泳いで、各々好きな時にボートに戻って、サンドイッチ、ドリンク、スナック、フルーツを食べます。
そしてまた海に戻って泳ぐといった具合です。
帰りには、溶岩洞窟にいくつか止まります。この日は波が高かったので洞窟の中まで入りませんでしたが、波が穏やかな日は入れるそうです。
そして、沖に出たら何と200頭くらいのいるかの大群に遭遇しました！ずーっと追いかけてくる子どものイルカ、スピンするイルカ、20分くらい一緒にマリーナへ向かい、この島の大自然を堪能することができました。

The best memories. 最高の思い出

Reviewed by: maki

I participated with my 6-year-old son. Led by Daisuke, who loves dolphins, we jumped into the water to see where the dolphins were swimming. When we looked into the surface, we were able to see a pod of wild dolphins swimming by. Another female staff member stayed with my son, and it seemed like he was able to see them well.

At first, I was nervous and my body was tense, and I was also worried about my son, so the dolphins swam by in no time. However, as I gradually got used to it, I was able to relax and enjoy the experience. Daisuke initially told me, "Please enjoy yourself, Mom," which helped ease my worries about seasickness and whether I could snorkel in the ocean for the first time. I was able to trust them completely.

On the way back to the port, we even saw two whales, which was so moving! It became a precious experience for both my son and me. Thank you very much!

6歳の息子と参加しました。
イルカが好きすぎるというだいすけさん主導で、イルカの泳いでくるポイントへ飛び込み、水面をのぞくと、泳いでくる野生のイルカの群れを見られました。息子には、もう一人の女性スタッフが、ついていてくださり、息子もちゃんと見られたようでした。
はじめは、ドキドキして身体も硬く、息子のことも気になり、あっという間にイルカちゃんは泳いで行ってしまいましたが、だんだんと慣れてきたら、ゆったりと落ち着いてみることができました☆
だいすけさんが、はじめに「お母さんが楽しんでください」と言って下さり、船酔い等の体調面、海での初のシュノーケルができるのかなど不安もありましたが、安心してお任せすることができました。
そして港へかえる途中には、なんとくじらを2頭も見ることがで、感動！！
私にとっても息子にとっても貴重な体験になりました。

Angel's Sea 天使の海

Reviewed by: crusader

I used the service on December 29. There was no wind, and the sea was calm, making it a perfect day for the tour. It was a wonderful experience with many sea turtles observed, and my small children, aged 3 and 6, were able to play happily. The tour staff's fun talks and thoughtfulness added to the experience.

However, the air conditioning on the bus going there was too cold, and all the tour guests were uncomfortable. I tried to bring it up to the driver, but as soon as I started talking, he had an attitude that suggested I shouldn't say anything more. What a shame! The temperature control on the return bus was good.

１２月２９日に利用しました。風はなく、海も凪、最高のツアー日和でした。多くのウミガメが観察できたこと、３歳と６歳の小さな子供も楽しく遊べたこと、ツアースタッフの楽しいトークと心使いなど素晴らしいツアーでした。
ただ、行きのバスのエアコンが寒すぎ、ツアー客全員困っていたので、運転手に訴えようとしましたが、話を始めた途端、それ以上言うなという態度で受け付けてもらえませんでした。残念！帰りのバスは良好な温度コントロールでした。

Reviewed by: うっきー

When driving, the store and parking lot are located far apart, so it's necessary to check the store's location on the map before parking. I think it's better for those coming by rental car to allow extra time. The reception started at 1 PM, but we arrived early and waited for our departure time while having lunch at a table in front of the store.

Since we were departing in the afternoon, I thought the wind and waves might be stronger in December, so I took motion sickness medication. The boat ride took about 45 minutes and was a bit bumpy, but since it was a large boat, I don't think it was too bad. On the way back, it gets cold because you're wet, so I think it's better to have a jacket in addition to a towel.

On the way there, drinks (water, juice) and snacks like rice crackers, as well as drinks, potato chips, and fruit, are available as self-service. The restrooms are spacious, clean, and separated by gender.

All snorkeling equipment is provided, and safety precautions and instructions on how to use the snorkeling gear are explained in English. I can hardly speak English, but I managed. The snorkeling spot had cold water, but there were no waves, and there were plenty of fish, which was fantastic.

By chance, we were able to see dolphins and whales on the way back, making it even more memorable. I would like to participate in the morning next time.

車で行くと店舗と駐車場が離れた場所にあるので、地図の場所の店舗で確認してから止めに行く必要があります。レンタカーでこられる方は余裕をもってこられた方がいいと思います。13時から受付でしたが私たちは早めにいって、お店の前のテーブルでランチしながら出発時間を待ちました。
午後出発なので12月だと風や波が強くなるのかと思って、酔い止めを飲みました。船で移動する時間が45分くらいかかり多少揺れましたが、大きな船なのでそれほどひどくなかったと思います。帰りは濡れているので寒くなりますから、タオルだけでなく、上着があった方がよいと思います。
行きは飲み物（水、ジュース）とおかき、飲み物とポテトチップと果物がセルフサービスで出ます。トイレは男女別て広くてきれいです。
シュノーケル用具はすべて貸してくれるし、安全上の注意やシュノーケル用具の使い方も英語ですが説明もしてくれます。私はほぼ英語ができませんが、なんとかなりました。シュノーケル場所は水が冷たかったですが、波もなく、魚もたくさんいて最高でした。
偶然ですが、帰りにイルカやクジラを見ることができて、さらに思い出深いものになりました。今度は午前中に参加してみたいと思いました。

Helicopter ride over the Big Island!!!

I hesitated for several years thinking about the cost, but... it was definitely the right decision to board! It was worth every penny! (Even for someone like me who is extremely afraid of heights, the stability of the helicopter was reassuring.)

After boarding, I was thrilled by the breathtaking views that you can never see from the ground. Waterfalls, Kilauea, lava fields, valleys, the land... everything was absolutely stunning! (I apologize for not having the best shots since I was sitting in the middle seat at the back...)

And our Japanese pilot, TOSHI (I was lucky with the timing!) provided a detailed explanation of the Big Island. (I might have been caught not really listening, though... haha.) Next time I board, I’ll make sure to study a bit more about the Big Island!

So, I definitely want to take this ride again next time!

I initially made a mistake and went to the wrong meeting place. I ended up at a building with a blue roof that has a marlin monument, but it was a different shop. It's actually a place with many tour companies further back.

There were ten participants in total, including us: four families and two couples.

We were greeted by dolphins right at the start. I was so thrilled!

When I first got on the Zodiac rubber boat, it bounced around a bit and was a little scary, but I gradually started to enjoy the speed and the bouncing. I brought a hat to prevent sunburn, but I couldn't keep it on!

To describe the experience, we sat on the edge of the rubber boat with the engine running, holding onto a rope. The boat took us out to sea at quite a speed, rocking a lot. It was exhilarating. I heard that some people have even fallen off into the sea before.

After that, the captain searched for whales, but unfortunately, we didn't find any that day. However, we did encounter a school of tuna, which was another thrill!

Next, we arrived at the snorkeling point. We jumped into the deep blue sea, far from land. The water was so clear that I could see down to my feet, but beyond that, it turned a deep navy blue. I wondered how deep it was. The water felt so soothing, and when I relaxed, my body floated effortlessly. It was an incredible feeling of liberation.

Snorkeling around the Captain Cook monument was also amazing. It felt like being thrown into a tropical fish tank. There were huge sea urchins everywhere. I wonder if they taste good? (laughs) I also saw turtles swimming, which was another delight!

The captain's English was a bit hard to understand. It wasn't a problem, though. I thought it would be fun to react like a native speaker if I understood everything, but I don't even do that in Japanese!

At the end, we encountered another pod of dolphins. They seemed so free. I was very satisfied. Snorkeling among the coral reefs while watching colorful fish was great too. The sandwiches for lunch were delicious. There were also services for fruits, snacks, and juice, which made it very relaxing.

I brought my iPhone with a waterproof cover, but I took so many photos underwater that I ran out of battery when we were sightseeing over the ocean. Even when dolphins jumped right in front of me and we were in front of amazing lava caves, I couldn't capture those moments…

As mentioned in other reviews, my lack of English skills made it hard to understand the explanations, and I couldn't communicate much with other foreign guests, which was disappointing. However, the captain and the other staff were very kind.

I highly recommend this tour. I really enjoyed the extraordinary experience. Thank you very much. I would love to participate again!

最初にいきなり集合場所間違えてしまいました。カジキのモニュメントがある青い屋根の建物に行ったら、別のお店でした。それより手前のツアー会社がたくさんあるところです。

参加者は、私たちの他、家族連れ４人、カップル２組、計１０名でした。

最初にいきなりイルカのお出迎え。チョーー感激ー！！

ゴムボートのゾディアック号に最初乗った時は、ポンポン飛んでちょっと怖かったですがだんだんスピードがどんなに出ても飛び跳ねても気持ち良く感じるようになりました。日焼け防止のために帽子持って行きましたが、かぶっていられませんでした！

イメージを説明しますと、エンジンの着いたゴムボードのふちに腰掛け、つかまるところはロープのみ。ボートはそんな不安定な私達を乗せて沖にけっこうなスピードでかなり揺れながら進みます。迫力満点です。今まで海に振り落とされた方もいらしたそうです。

その後船長さんが、沖でクジラを探してくれましたが、残念ながらこの日は見つかりませんでした。ただ、マグロの群れに遭遇出来て、またまたちょっと感激～！

その後、スノーケルポイントに到着。 陸地から遠く離れ海のど真ん中でただただ碧い海に飛び込みました。足もとまでくっきり透き通って見えるのにその先は濃紺、いったいどれほどの深さなのでしょう。とろりと感じるぐらいの水、脱力すると簡単に体は浮きます。ものすごい解放感。

キャプテンクック記念碑の周りでのスノーケリングもすばらしかった。まるで熱帯魚の水槽の中に放り込まれたようでした。巨大なウニがたくさんいました。食べたらおいしいのかな？？笑。
カメさんも泳いでました。またまた感激です！

キャプテンの英語はちょと理解できませんね~。それで困ることはありません。理解できてネイティブ並みに反応できたら楽しいかとも思いますが（もともと日本語でもそういう乗り突っ込みはしないですからね）

最後にまたイルカの群れに会えました。自由を感じるイルカたちでした。大満足でしたね。
シュノーケルも珊瑚礁の中、色とりどりの魚を見ながら、良かったです。お昼のサンドイッチも美味しかったです。
フルーツや、スナック、ジュースのサービスもあり、とてもくつろげました。

ＩＰＨＯＮＥに防水カバーつけて持って行きましたが枚数が足りないほど海中をパシャパシャ撮りまくってしまったので、シュノーケルの後に、海の上からハワイ島観光をしてくれた時にはせっかく目の前でイルカがクルクルジャンプしても、すばらしい溶岩洞窟を目の前にしてもバッテリー切れで写真に収めることはできませんでした…

他の書き込みにもあるとおり、英語力がなく説明がよくわからなかったのと、他の外国人の方とコミュニケーションがあまり取れないのが残念でした。でもキャプテンも他のスタッフの方もとても親切です。
ほんとにおすすめのツアーですね。
非日常を楽しめました。
どうもありがとうございました。
また参加したいです！

ウミガメシュノーケリング　ホロカイ・カタマラン号　高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ！ソフトドリンク&スナック付き＜3時間／英語／ワイキキホテル発＞

Seasickness 船酔い

Reviewed by: hayashi

We participated as a couple. As soon as we exited the hotel and reached the beach, we saw the boat, so we arrived without any confusion. There were about 20 participants that day, but we were the only Japanese people.

The weather was nice, and it was great that we got to see sea turtles. However, during snorkeling, there was an incident where my wife's life jacket lost air. Since she couldn't swim, she was quite panicked. I waved to the guide on the boat, but they just smiled and waved back, thinking it was a simple greeting, and didn’t come to help. When I shouted "Help" loudly, a guide swimming nearby brought a float, and we managed to resolve the situation. Perhaps there was an explanation on how to call for help during the initial English guidance.

When we got back on the boat, I found that my life jacket was also about 70% deflated. I had checked how to inflate it and how to maintain the valve with the guide, so the equipment itself might have been faulty.

After snorkeling, we cruised towards Diamond Head. The waves were quite big, and I ended up feeling sick. When I asked the guide where the restroom was because I thought I might throw up, I was told, "Don't throw up in the restroom," so I had to hold it in. Eventually, I couldn't hold it anymore and ended up using a plastic bag.

There were other guests who also felt sick, but after applying lavender essential oil, they received a bucket that said "Let's Do It" and were encouraged with "Let's Do it." There were several people who were rescued from near drowning and others who felt unwell, but they were all Asian. The Western guests seemed to be having a great time, drinking alcohol on the boat. It might be a tour more suited for Westerners (laughs).

夫婦二人で参加しました。
ホテルからビーチに出るとすぐに船が見えたため、迷うことなく到着。当日は20人ほど参加していましたが、日本人は私たち二人だけでした。
天気が良く、ウミガメにも会えた点は良かったです。
しかし、シュノーケリング中、妻の救命胴衣から空気が抜けるハプニングが発生。妻は泳げなかったのでかなり焦りました。船にいるガイドに手を振ったのですが、単なるコミュニケーションと思ったのかニコニコ手を振りかえしてくるだけで助けてもらえず。「Help」と大きな声を上げたところ近くで泳いでいたガイドさんが浮き輪を持ってきて来てくれて事なきを得ました。もしかしたら、最初の英語のガイダンスのところで助けの呼び方などの説明があったのかもしれません。船に上がると私の救命胴衣も7割ほど空気が抜けていました。空気の入れ方、弁の保持の仕方等はガイドさんにチェックしてもらい実施していたので道具自体が良くなかったのかもしれません。
シュノーケリング後はダイヤモンドヘッドの方などをクルージング。結構波が大きく、今度は私の気分が悪くなってしまいました。トイレで吐こうと思いガイドさんにトイレの場所を聞くと、「トイレでは吐くな」と言われ我慢することに。その後、とうとう我慢ができずにビニール袋に戻しました。
他のお客さんも気分が悪くなった人はいましたが、ラベンダーのアロマオイルを塗られた後、「Let's Do It」と書かれたバケツをもらい、「Let's Do it」と言われていました。
溺れかかって助けられた人、気分の悪くなった人は複数人いましたが全てアジア人。西洋人は船上でお酒をがぶがぶ飲みとても楽しそうでした。西洋人向きのツアーなのかもしれません（笑）

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

Best Experience Ever!

Reviewed by: Brian

This was our first time going to Maui with the family and we wanted to choose the activities that would leave a great impact on all of us. And boy did we do the right choice. Doing this activity was the best experience ever! The staff was very friendly and informed us regarding safety issues, then we had our continental breakfast. On our way to the first snorkeling spot we had the chance to see some whales and that was a plus. Once we arrived to the right spot we snorkeled for about 45-55 minutes where we all had a chance to see a baby turtle swimming among us (super cute by the way). After that we continued to our second snorkeling place and it was there where we encountered more turtles and fishes. Being able to see the ocean life from a different perspective is amazing. Once we concluded our snorkeling we went back to the boat and had some delicious burgers and hotdogs BBQed for us by the staff. It was just amazing! I encourage you to do the Maui to Lanai - Dolphin Watch & Snorkel BBQ Lunch Cruise.

Maui to Lanai Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast & Lunch from Lahaina

I TOTALLY LOVED IT!!!

Reviewed by: ADRIANA

It was my first time snorkeling and I Totally Loved It!!! Before I booked the activity I was concern because I don't know how to swim but the staff was so friendly and they guided me through the process, which made it super easy and fun for me. They have all the equipment on board and I was able to use a belt that allowed me to float. It was an amazing experience where I was able to watch some whales, turtles and many more marine life. If you are planning a trip to Hawaii snorkeling is a MUST, believe me, you won't be disappointed. But please be aware that if you get sea sick, do yourself a favor and eat one of the bars they sell at the booth before boarding the boat. That way you will ensure to enjoy the whole experience. ALOHA & MAHALO to the crew that was amazing! I WOULD DEFINITELY DO THIS ACTIVITY WITH THEM AGAIN!!!

野生のイルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングツアー ＜朝食・昼食付き＞

Whales too. クジラも

Reviewed by: TSUNOMAMA

We spotted dolphins just five minutes after departing! What a wonderful start. I watched brave foreigners diving into the sea while enjoying snorkeling with my son. The inside of the boat was very clean! The restroom was cleaner than those in nearby hotels! Moreover, I was impressed to see the staff constantly moving and working diligently. Good job! On the way back, we encountered whales, making it an even more enjoyable memory.

出港して5分としないうちにイルカ出没‼︎なんと素晴らしいスタート。息子とシュノーケルを楽しみながら海へダイブの勇敢な外国人の方々を眺めました。船内はとても綺麗‼︎トイレはその辺のホテルより綺麗‼︎しかもスタッフの方々は常に動き、きめ細かくお仕事していたのを見て感動しました。good job‼︎
帰りにはクジラ出没し、更に楽しい想い出になりました。

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＞

Hawaii Island Ocean Rafting & Kealakekua Bay Snorkeling Thrilling adventure along the lava cliffs! by Captain Zodiac ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング&ケアラケクア湾シュノーケル　溶岩の岸壁を行くスリル満点アドベンチャー！　by キャプテン・ゾディアック号

Reviewed by: kotomi

I used this service during my first trip to the Big Island with friends. The meeting place was a bit hard to find, so make sure to look closely at the signs. Also, all the staff and crew spoke only English, so be aware of that. It might have just been coincidence, but all the other customers around us were Americans, and we were the only Asians. For me, it felt more like being abroad compared to Oahu, which is mostly filled with Asians (mainly Japanese), and it was fantastic.

Now, about the activity. The rafting goes at quite a high speed. However, no water comes into the boat, so just make sure to hold onto the ropes tightly to avoid falling off. It felt like we went for over 30 minutes, and the time felt long. But when we encountered a pod of dolphins along the way, it was truly moving. They were so close! And the blue of the ocean upon arrival was breathtaking. It was the perfect shade of blue that you think of when you hear "Blue Hawaii"! The water was so clear, filled with many fish. We were allowed to snorkel freely with no time limit, as long as we had the energy.

The lunch afterward was quite simple, but the pineapple was incredibly delicious. Just when I thought we would return by rafting, we changed locations and snorkeled again. Then we sped back for over 30 minutes. On the way back, we caught a glimpse of a mother whale and her calf. It made me deeply feel that there is still so much nature left on this planet. It was my first time snorkeling in such a deep-looking sea. I definitely want to participate again.

友人との初めてのハワイ島旅行の際に利用しました。集合場所、分かりづらいです。看板をよく見て探すこと。そして、店員さんや乗務員さん全て英語オンリーですので要注意。たまたまかもしれませんが、周りのお客さんもアメリカ人の方ばかりでアジア人は我々だけでした。私からすると、アジア人(主に日本人)ばかりのオアフ島より、海外に来ている感があって最高でした。そして、本題のアクティビティ。かなりの猛スピードでラフティングは進みます。でも船の中に水が入ってくることは一切ないのですが、とにかく落ちないようにしっかりロープを握ってください。３０分以上は進んだ気がします。体感時間長かったです。でも、途中でイルカの群れに会えた時は本当に感動です。あまりにも近い！そして到着後の海のブルーさは圧巻です。ブルーハワイとはこのこと、と言わんばかりの真っ青さ！でもって透明度が高すぎる海にはたくさんのお魚。自由にシュノーケリングさせてもらえました。制限時間なし。体力の持つままに。上がった後のランチはかなり簡易的な軽食ですが、パイナップルがすごくおいしかったです。そしてまたラフティングで帰るのかと思いきや、場所を変えて再びシュノーケリング。そしてまた３０分以上ほどかけて猛スピードで帰りました。帰りしな、クジラの親子が少しだけ見られました。地球にはまだまだ色んな自然があるものだと、しみじみ感じられました。あれほどまでに海底が深く見える海でシュノーケリングをしたのは初めてでした。是非ともまた参加したいです。

Four Winds Deluxe Molokini Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Taco Bar Lunch & Drinks

A fantastic way to spend the morning!

Reviewed by: Trevor

I cannot recommend the Four Winds enough! The crew are all fantastic and make you feel welcome right from the outset. Captain John is worth the price of admission alone! We were provided a great breakfast and later lunch with all drinks included, we were well looked after. The equipment used is sanitary and of a high quality and the boat itself is very comfortable.
We were lucky enough to see several wales on the way out to Molokini and the crater itself provided some of the best snorkelling you can do. The other patrons were of all ages and ethnicities and got along famously - this is a great option for those with kids too.
I find it hard to believe you could find a better way to go to Molokini than with the four winds!

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＞

Thank you, Aloha Kona Tours, for the best memories! 最高の思い出 アロハコナツアーズに感謝！

Reviewed by: こうが

Today, I participated in a dolphin tour. I believe there are many companies offering dolphin tours on the Big Island, but I heard that Mr. Nata was the first to start a dolphin tour there. Mr. Nata, Mr. Daisuke, and Ms. Chiho from Aloha Kona Tours provided an absolutely wonderful experience. For example, it seems that with other companies, you only get about three chances to go into the water, but the team at Aloha Kona Tours has a strong enthusiasm to show you the dolphins! They quickly spotted a pod of dolphins with the naked eye, got us into the water swiftly, and today we were able to enter the ocean five times. Each time, the dolphins came very close, and there were so many of them; it was an indescribable experience. My 6-year-old daughter was well taken care of, allowing us parents to focus on watching. It was so amazing that I understand why some people become repeat customers. Today, I was lucky to be with veteran guests, and after it was over, I really understood the desire to return. I am already eager to come back, and I plan to bring my friends' families with me next year. Next time, I would like to request not only dolphins but also manta rays and Mauna Kea with Aloha Kona Tours. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

本日イルカのツアーに参加しました。ハワイ島でイルカのツアーは何社もあると思いますが、縄田さんがハワイ島ではじめてイルカのツアーを始めたそうです。アロハコナツアーズの縄田さん、ダイスケさん、ちほさんは本当に素晴らしい体験をさせてくれました。例えば他社では3本位しか海におりるチャンスはないようですが、アロハコナツアーズの皆さんは見せたい！という熱意がとても強く、肉眼で素早くイルカの群を見つけ、素早く海に降り、今日は5回も海に入れてくれました。どの回もすごく近くにイルカが来て、群の数もとても多く、言葉にならない体験をしました。6歳の娘にもバッチリ付き添ってもらっていたので、私達親は自分が見ることに集中できました。本当にすばらしいのでリピーターになってしまう方もいるそうで、本日は運良くベテランのお客様とご一緒させて頂きました。終わった後、リピートしてしまう気持ちがよくわかりました。私も既にリピートする気まんまんなので、来年は友達家族も連れてまた来たいと思っています。次回はイルカだけでなく、マンタとマウナケアもアロハコナツアーズでお願いしたいです。良い思い出をありがとうございました！
