Big Island Whale Watching Cruise from Waikoloa - Hawaii Nautical [Dec-Mar]

Loved the Whales!

Reviewed by: Marissa

My whole family enjoyed this experience! There were plenty of whales breaching and splashing all around us, they gave us a great show. The entire crew was friendly and knowledgeable about the whales and the catamaran too. I would recommend this trip to anyone during the whale season! We will do it again on our next trip. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.

Whale Watching Cruise ホエールウオッチングクルーズ

Reviewed by: ヤス

The explanation in English only: The whales' spouts and dorsal fins were only visible a few times from a distance, and contrary to expectations, the satisfaction level was somewhat lacking. However, the view from the boat was excellent.

英語のみの解説、鯨は潮吹きと背びれが数回遥か彼方にしか見えず、期待に反して満足度はもう一つでした。船上からの眺めは最高でした。

Twilight Volcano Tour with Stargazing, Black Sand Beach & Coffee Farm

Worth the money for sure!

Reviewed by: Sue

We really enjoyed this tour. It is a long one so be prepared. But they keep you hydrated and fed. I loved the black sand beach, and the sea turtles and the stop along the shore the most. But all of the events were really fun. They packed so much into one day. it was a great tour and we had a lot of fun. The picnic, the stop at the bakery, and the dinner, you were all excellent quality as well.

  • Double rainbow along the way.

Mauna Kea Evening Stargazing & Daytime Solar Viewing Tour with Dinner

Stargazing tour

Reviewed by: Kavya Ganapathy

The trip was fantastic and Ray was super informative. It was a beautiful night and we got to see a lot of stars and planets and the moon rising as well. It was spectacular and a must try for everyone! We thoroughly enjoyed it and I highly recommend it!! Also loved the hot chocolate touch at the end because it was quite cold on the slopes. The pickup and drop off was on time. The one thing that could have been better in my opinion was the food options and I also wished we had stopped somewhere to see the spectacular sunset. Apart from that, we really enjoyed it

There was a bit of swell until we reached the snorkeling point, but since it was a catamaran, we were able to go without much rocking. The crew was also friendly, and we had a great time.

Second tour and still amazing

Reviewed by: Leah

Took this tour 6 years ago and had the most amazing experience. So I had to do it again. This tour offers the best of Big Island because you get to see Akaka Falls and Rainbow Falls. We saw lots of turtles at black sand beach and an actual rainbow at Rainbow Falls! Our guide Brent was very informative and helpful.

Great time!

Reviewed by: Kim A

We had such a great time! The crew was so nice. We had a great snorkel day, saw lots of fish. The water activities were a great bonus. The slide and platform were fun too! We went as a couple but great for families/children also. Had pastries and yogurt for breakfast, burgers for lunch, and cash bar open the entire time. I do wish for the price at least 1 drink could be included, but it was still a great time. We even saw some dolphins following our boat shortly before docking at the end

Kona Sunset & Moonlight Wild Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Wahine Charters

Great Fun!

Reviewed by: Rich(Lawrence KS)

I was not sure what to expect but I was very pleased with this experience. The crew was very pleasant, patient and knowledgable. They were very patient with some older guests and made sure they were safe and comfortable.
We ended up meeting several other boats so we had a lot of plankton for the Manta. Those beautiful fish did not disappoint! Although touching the manta is prohibited, they come close enough to touch! Bring your underwater camera for some great pictures and video memories!

Big Island Lei Greeting Service at Kona Airport - Hawaiian Floral Necklace

Airport Lei Greeting

Reviewed by: Rich

Booked the day before our arrival which was a mistake as have to pay an extra fee for short notice.

Even then the order is not guaranteed.

But it got confirmed and there was a nice man waiting for us by the baggage belt.

He welcomed us to the Island (Big Island) and wished me a Happy Birthday as this was part of our request and then presented out Leis.

We put the flowers in the fridge when we arrived at put location and on leaving the island, scattered the petals in the sea by the turtles near Waikola.

Happy with the service provided, but book early to avoid having the extra fee.

The six if us had a great time with Drew who kept us entertained while ensuring we understood the historical and cultural importance of many of the sites we visited. The dad jokes were appreciated over the course of the day travelling from Kona to Hilo and points in-between. The consensus highlight was the swim in the waterfall pool. Even the weather cooperated.

Above and Beyond!

Reviewed by: Sandra McCaffrey

Our guide Gabe (I think that was his name - sorry if I’m mistaken!) was superb.

He picked us up near our condo and the van was very nice and spacious. We had 5 adults and were very comfortable.

The drive up he pointed out things of interest, answered any questions and was just overall very upbeat, fun and informative.

He was great up to this point but he crossed over to superb when my mom got altitude sickness. He was constantly checking on her, giving her sickness bags, anti-nausea meds and overall just very attentive.

He very professionally handled both her and the rest of the guests.

Will definitely book with this company and guide again.

Hawaii Manta Ray Sunset & Night Time Snorkel Experience from Kona - Iruka

Amazing guides, lots of mantas and fish, beautiful scenery, and fun learning experience.

Reviewed by: E & C Flores-Montoya

My husband and I booked this tour for our honeymoon on the island. It was truly amazing to see the many fish and mantas in their natural habitat! I was that person who forgot their motion sickness meds. If you get motion sick/sea sick definitely take them so you can enjoy the whole experience without feeling queasy. If you come from colder climates you may not need wet suits. My husband and I didnt get them as we come from a cold climate and did fine temperature wise. The captain and his crew, Diego, were very knowledgeable and friendly. They also helped out a bunch when I wasn't feeling well. Would recommend this tour to anyone!

ハワイ島エコアドベンチャーツアー ワイピオ渓谷展望台からの眺めやボタニカルガーデン、穴場スポットでの滝つぼ遊びも!<1日/昼食・スナック付き/英語ガイド>

I was able to see various waterfalls! 色んな滝が見れました!

Reviewed by: mm

I was able to see about four waterfalls.

The scenery of Waipi'o Valley was also beautiful.

You can walk around the Botanical Garden in about an hour. It’s very worthwhile.

I swam in the waterfall pool. You can borrow a jacket for free, so even if you're not a good swimmer, you can still enjoy it. There is one place to change, but I couldn't use a shower.

Along the way, I was happy to receive water, juice, and snacks!

The guide was very friendly and a good person. Since I can't speak any English at all, I couldn't understand most of the explanations (I was prepared for that), but I think it’s a great tour for those who can understand. You can hear a lot of interesting stories!

I was glad that the weather was nice all day! ☀️

滝は4つくらい見れました。

ワイピオ渓谷の景色も素敵でした。

ボタニカルガーデンは1時間位で一周できます。見応えたっぷりです。

滝壺で泳ぎました。ジャケットが無料で借りれるので泳ぎが下手でも楽しめます。着替えるところ(一つ)はありますが、シャワーは使えませんでした。

道中、お水やジュース、お菓子もいただけるので嬉しかったです!

ガイドさんもとてもフレンドリーで良い人でした。私自身が英語が全くできないので説明がほぼ理解できませんでしたが(覚悟はしてました)理解できる人にとってはとっても良いツアーだと思います。色んな話が聞けます!

一日中天気に恵まれて良かったです☀️
