During my previous hike in Manoa, I was captivated by the enchanting atmosphere of the forest. Unfortunately, this time, we had to walk almost entirely in the rain. The photos all turned out gloomy due to the clouds, so the weather was disappointing. Before we started, it was helpful that they lent out rain gear and sticks to those who needed them. The guide's instructions were also enjoyable! For lunch, I had a pastrami sandwich, which was just the right amount and delicious.

以前マノアのハイキングに参加した際、森の幻想的な雰囲気に心奪われました。今回は残念ながら、ほぼずっと雨の中を歩くこととなりました。写真が全部どんより雲のため、天気だけが残念です。スタート前に、雨具とスティックを希望者には貸し出してくれて助かりました。ガイドの方の案内も楽しかったです！ランチは、パストラミサンドにしましたが、ちょうどいい量で美味しかったです。

Good host is great
Divers are cool
No turtle nor much depth

This tour exceeded all expectations! The crew was outstanding along with the transport accommodations from hotel to the boat. The musicians aboard were nothing short of amazing. You will leave this tour with seeing some of the most beautiful landscape ever. The equipment was top notch along with a great beach experience with snorkeling, kayaks and volleyball. I have been to Hawaii numerous times before and this excursion tops the rest! Mahalo!

There was no shuttle service, and the location was hard to find. I struggled with only English. I wish the buggy course was a bit longer. Given this, the price should also be reconsidered.

送迎もなく場所がわかりずらい、英語onlyで苦労した。バギーのコースももう少し長くしてほしい。これなら値段も考慮すべき。

Yoshi's knowledge and passion for the stars made this one of the most memorable experiences of our time in Maui. We will definitely be booking again on our next trip!

Four years ago, I participated in this lesson for the first time. It was so impressive that during this family trip, I joined a group lesson (4 English speakers, 2 Japanese) with my younger brother.

After a general explanation, a local instructor who speaks Japanese took care of the two of us on the beach. It was like a completely private lesson! Both my brother (his first time surfing) and I (my second time) were able to ride the waves right away. In fact, I managed to ride all the waves except for one! My brother didn't fall even once! The instructor praised us a lot and also pointed out areas for improvement.

Another surfing instructor told me, "The person teaching you is really amazing."

The photos cost $50 for one participant and $75 for two. Since there's a breakwater nearby, I should have had my family come to take pictures. I didn't have the luxury of taking selfies... haha.

I was exhausted after the lesson, so I'm glad I signed up for it on the last day. I was able to sleep soundly on the plane. If I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate in a lesson here again!

4年前、初めてこのレッスンに参加しました。
それが凄く印象的だったので、今回の家族旅行では、弟と一緒にグループレッスン(英語圏4人、日本人2人)に参加させて頂きました。

全体説明後、ビーチでは日本語も話せる現地の先生1人が我々2人を担当してくれました。完全にプライベートレッスン状態！！
私(サーフィン2回目)も弟(サーフィン1回目)も一発で波に乗れました。
というか、私は1回以外全部波に乗れました！弟は1回も落ちなかったです！
先生はいっぱい褒めてくれるし、改善点も教えてくれました。

他のサーフィンレッスンの先生から、"あなたに教えてくれてる人はとても凄い人なのよ"と声をかけられました。

写真は1人参加だと$50、2人だと$75、、でした。
近くに堤防もあるので、家族に写真を撮りに来て貰えば良かったです。
自撮りしてる余裕はないので…笑

レッスン後はクタクタだったので、最終日に申し込んで良かったです。機内で爆睡出来ました。
またハワイに行ったら、絶対ここでまたレッスンに参加したいです！

Great food! Wonderful entertainment! Terrific staff! Well worth it. We had a fabulous time!

As expected, the sea in January is cold, and although it was sunny, there was hardly any direct sunlight, which made it tough. The children were shivering.

When we arrived at the sandbar, it should have been around low tide to high tide, but the water level had already risen, and it wasn't dry land, which was disappointing.

However, we did get to see sea turtles and manta rays. Also, snorkeling was quite tough, and taking care of the kids while doing it was pretty exhausting.

やはり1月の海は寒く、晴れてはいたが直射日光がほぼなかったのでつらかった。子供はくちびるを震わせたりしていた。
サンドバーも到着時には干潮から満潮の間くらいだったはずだがすでに潮位が上がっており、陸地にはなっておらず残念。
ただウミガメやマンタには会えました。
あとシュノーケリングは結構タフで子供をケアしながらの実施はかなり疲れました。

It was a tour in the morning, but because it had rained the day before and there was a little rain on the day itself, the sea was a bit cold and didn't have the beauty of a heavenly sea. However, as it got closer to noon, it started to clear up, and gradually beautiful scenery began to appear.

Also, I was able to see sea turtles and enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding. The tour crew spoke Japanese and were very friendly and easy to talk to, which made it a lot of fun!

Next time I come, I want to see the best scenery!

朝からのツアーでしたが、前日に雨が降っていたことと、当日少し雨が降ったため、海は少し冷たく、天国の海というほどの美しさはありませんでした。
しかし、お昼近くになると晴れ始め、次第に綺麗な景色が見え始めました。

また、ウミガメが見れたことやサップも楽しめたこと、ツアーのクルーの方々は日本語も話せることや、とても気さくで話しやすく良い方々だったこともあり、とても楽しかったです！

次回はきた際には最高の景色を見たいです！

The show and entertainment were amazing, but the vegan options for food were surprisingly underwhelming.

Todd was great, he went out of his way to make it a great experience for us. He set up his own telescope for the group to get a good look at the stars and moon. He was very knowledgeable and extremely patient. We were also lucky enough to catch the eruption making the trip really great

Byron and Monique were awesome, they put at ease with their humourous banter. Great views of the 250ft waterfall, would highly recommend

Great food and great drinks! The entertainment was amazing.

We had an awesome time viewing the Manta Rays. We were able to see the spinner dolphins in the sunset as well. The staff was great and very accommodating. Definitely worth the trip to the big island!

Good
Surprised to the beautiful place nice expedition.
But want to see more of Jurassic parc
Take other pack if you want to see the movie

For Jurassic Valley with door of Jurassic parc on the other side you must Take the other Movie pack and not this!!!

We learned a lot about the Polynesian culture through the activities and demonstrations. Dinner was okay. But the breath of life show after was fantastic.

I had been to Angel's Sea once before, but this was my first time on a snorkeling tour. I was very satisfied to see sea turtles and manta rays at Angel's Sea! And having a hamburger for lunch while on the water was the best. The guides explained everything in a way that was easy for Japanese people to understand, so I had no worries and enjoyed myself. Since it wasn't just a boat for Japanese people, I was able to interact with people from other countries, which was also fun (we exchanged snacks we brought with us, laughing together).

This was my first time snorkeling, and I was amazed to see the fish up close! Since it was the ocean, I was a bit worried about being swept away by the current, but there were people nearby, so I felt safe and enjoyed it. It was a bit cold on the boat, so I think a larger and thicker bath towel would be better. Also, it's best to leave all jewelry at the hotel. I found that the area between my chin and neck surprisingly got sunburned, so it's better to apply sunscreen thoroughly. I went on the last day of my stay in Hawaii, and I'm really glad I did. I highly recommend this tour!

以前天使の海は一度行ったことがあったのですが、シュノーケル付きのツアーは初めてでした。天使の海では海亀とマンタが見れて大満足！そしてランチのハンバーガーも海の上で食べると最高ですね。日本人向けに説明をして頂けるので何も不安な点も無く楽しめました。日本人のみの船ということでは無いので他の国の方とも交流ができてそれもまた楽しかったです。(お互い持ってきたスナックを交換こしたり笑)
シュノーケルは初挑戦でしたが、魚が近くで見れて感動しました！！海なので多少潮に流されそうになりますが近くに人がいるので安心して楽しめました。船の上は寒かったりもするのでバスタオルは大きめで厚めの方がいいと思います。あとはジュエリーは全てホテルに置いてくべし。日焼け止めはあごと首の間が意外と焼けたので、念入りに塗った方がいいです。ハワイ滞在の最後の日に行きましたが本当に行って良かったです。おすすめのツアーです。

I participated with my 65-year-old mother!
We were in a team of eight, which included two groups of six people from Korea and the two of us.

At first, we watched a video in English on how to drive, but they also showed us a separate video with Japanese subtitles.

The guide spoke entirely in English, so we couldn't understand everything, but they explained the necessary safety information with gestures, and we had plenty of practice time, which made us feel secure before setting off.

I initially thought it might be a bit difficult for my mother due to her age, but there were some older participants in the other groups (not Japanese), and above all, we were able to experience something that is hard to come by in Japan, which made my mother the happiest.

The guide took a lot of photos for us, and the Korean group we participated with were very kind, creating truly wonderful memories.

65歳の母と参加しました！
一緒のチームになったのは韓国人グループ2組6人と、私たち母娘2人の計8人でした。


最初、運転方法を英語のビデオで見るのですが、私たちは別で日本語字幕付きのビデオを見せてくれました。


ガイドの方は全て英語で話すので、全てを理解することはできませんでしたが、安全に必要なことは身振り手振りで説明してくれましたし、練習時間もたっぷりとってくれたので安心して出発することができました。


最初は母の年齢には少し難しいかな？と思いましたが、他のグループにはもう少し年配の方（日本人ではなく）も参加していましたし、何より日本ではなかなか経験できないことができて、母が1番楽しんでいました＾＾


ガイドさんにたくさん写真も撮っていただき、一緒に参加した韓国人グループの方々にも優しくしていただき、本当に良い思い出になりました。

I boarded from the domestic terminal. I was unsure where the kiosk mentioned in the prior notice was, and I got lost trying to find the boarding area. The bus in the photo has a different design now, so be aware of that as well. Once on board, it was comfortable as they took me directly to the hotel.

国内線ターミナルから乗車した。事前のお知らせでキオスクと書かれていた場所がどこかわからず、乗り場に迷ってしまった。写真のバスとは今は異なるデザインなのでそこも注意です。乗ってしまえばホテルまで送って頂けるので快適でした。

I was in the waiting room of Islander, and they called my name right on time! I've used Roberts Hawaii several times, and I can trust them!

アイランダーの待合室にいましたが、時間ぴったり？に名前を呼んでくれました。何度か利用していますが、ロバーツハワイは信頼できます！

Night snorkel with manta rays was recommended to me by a coworker who lived on Kona. We booked this for our vacation based on her recommendation. We brought our ‘kids’ ages 30, 16, 13. I think it would be hard for younger kids. In fact, one child I’d say about 6 sat on a float the entire time. Swimming in ocean at night even with a wetsuit (a MUST), a noodle, and holding on to a raft is trying even for an adult. That being said, it was so cool! We were fortunate to see many manta rays! I wish I could’ve taken pictures. It was plenty long enough time. Any longer would’ve been too much. We had perfect weather and the light of the full moon. The crew was awesome and fun. You could tell they loved their job and were friends. Shout out to the girl on our crew named Ryan, who took extra care and patience helping my 30 year old daughter swim back to boat.

All I can say, this group is awesome. We had the sandbar adventure last January 4, 2023. Despite the weather didn’t cooperate, they still made sure that we have a good time. Supposedly it’s a big group, but because it’s raining that day, some parties cancelled their trip while we just want to get over it and don’t want to be back the next day. It turned out to be an awesome adventure for us. My kids still did their banana boat ride and bumpers as well as paddle boarding and snorkeling. And my daughter even had a chance to have duet with my HERO!!! (It’s a long story).
I’m so thankful with them coz my kids really enjoyed this adventure. We all had a good time.

There were no temperature checks or mask requirements. I think it was due to the convenience of our condominium pickup location, but we did not stop by Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. It was fully booked, and we were with a group of people not only from Japan but also from other countries. There was a guide who spoke both Japanese and English. Yamapi-san paid attention to even the smallest details. When we stopped by the supermarket to buy dinner, he provided detailed advice and assistance. He mentioned that he comes to Haleakalā five times a week, so I felt he was a veteran guide who knows this area very well. His photography skills are also professional level.

検温やマスク着用は無かったです。私達のコンドミニアムピックアップの場所の都合だとは思いますが、クリスピークリームドーナツには私達は立ち寄らなかったです。満席状態で、日本人だけではなく、他国の人のグループと一緒でした。日本語と英語のガイドでした。やまぴーさんは細かいところまでよく気を配って下さります。
スーパーに立ち寄り、夕食を買う時も細かくアドバイス、アテンドしてくださいました。
週5でハレアカラに来られているそうで、この地を知り尽くしているベテランのガイドさんだと感じました。写真の撮り方もプロ並みです。

I was momentarily unsure where to go at the airport (I thought there was a counter three years ago), but there was a person holding a welcome card, and from there, I arrived at the hotel without any particular issues.

空港で一瞬どこにいったら良いかわからなかった（3年前はカウンターがあったと思った）けど、歓迎のカードを持ってる人がいて、そこからは特に問題なくホテルまで無事到着でした。

The boat ride was very nice and theSmith family crew were very pleasant and informative. Seeing the grotto was awesome.

Great experience! Ship staff were so patient. Would highly recommend!

It was my first time on a four-wheeler, and it was quite thrilling. Everyone in the family was able to enjoy it. With the beautiful scenery, I think it became a great memory.

四輪バギーは初めてでしたが、かなりスリリングで家族のみんなが楽しむことができました。いい景色も相まって、よい思い出になったと思います
。

Pro: sensational show!

Con: rushed diner and so-so food

At first, I was anxious about the tour being conducted only in English, but when I asked the staff with a translation device, "Is there anyone who can speak Japanese?" they kindly brought over a staff member who spoke Japanese. Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy everything from meals to activities!

最初は英語だけのツアーで不安でしたが、スタッフに翻訳機で「日本語対応できる方いますか＿」と質問すると、親切に日本語が喋られるスタッフを連れてきてくれました。
おかげで、食事からアクティビティまで楽しくできました！

The sandbar was wonderful, but the guide's character and the way they explained everything in a polite and interesting manner in Japanese made for a great memory. My 4-year-old child was able to play safely. The float with the yellow underwater view was a favorite among the kids.

サンドバーの素晴らしさもありますが、ガイドさんのキャラクターや日本語でも丁寧におもしろく説明いただけて、とても良い思い出になりました。
4歳の子供も安心して遊べました。黄色の水中が見える浮き輪？が子どもたちのお気に入りでした。
