I'm glad I went! I should have gone sooner!!! 行ってよかった!行くべきでした!!!

Reviewed by: co-linda93

I was really able to swim with dolphins. The experience was incredibly moving! Looking back now, I'm glad I was able to make a reservation!

Although I had no snorkeling experience and went out into the ocean, thanks to the support and advice from the swim instructor, I was ultimately able to see the dolphins up close, and I'm really glad I went!

The captain loves the ocean, dolphins, and whales more than anything, and I realized that because of that love, there is so much he can understand and teach us. His love for the animals was overflowing, and that's why we were able to have such an amazing experience. He also assessed the spots from a professional perspective, making for a very satisfying time.

I would love to participate again once I can snorkel! Thank you very much!!!

本当にイルカと泳げました。感動はかなり大きかったです!
今思えば予約がとれてよかった!と思っております。
シュノーケリング未経験で沖に出てしまった私ですが、スイムインストラクターの方のサポートやアドバイスで最終的にはイルカを間近で見ることができて本当に行ってよかった!です。
船長さんが何よりも海、イルカ、クジラなどのことが大好きで、大好きだからこそわかること、教えられることがたくさんあるんだなと思います。動物たちへの愛が溢れていて、だからこそ私たちの体験が得られたんだなと思います。ポイントもプロの目線で見極めてくれてかなり満足な時間でした。
またシュノーケルできるようになって参加したいものです!ありがとうございました!!!

Mauna Kea Summit and Starry Sky マウナケア山頂と星空

Reviewed by: etsu

This time, we couldn't reach the summit or observe the starry sky due to bad weather. It's really disappointing since it's not an easily accessible place. Given the cost, we should have considered the timing (especially in winter) more carefully. As for the guide, I would have preferred more information about the attractions and charm of the Big Island rather than personal stories.

今回は悪天候のため山頂と星空観測が出来ませんでした。
簡単に行ける所ではないので、本当に残念でなりません。
金額もそれなりにするので、時期(特に冬場)もしっかり考慮すべきでした。
ガイドに関しては、個人的な話よりも、もっとハワイ島の事、魅力を話してもらいたかった。

A tour where you can experience marine life up close. 海の生物を間近で感じられるツアー

Reviewed by: tom

The captain and the swim guide were both Japanese with blue eyes, and their love for the sea radiated from them.

Perhaps we were lucky with the timing, as we were fortunate enough to see whales, which got everyone on board very excited.

The dolphins we aimed to see were not at an easily accessible spot, but they knew the locations where we could feel closer to them. If I have the chance to come back to the Big Island, I would love to participate again.

船長、スイムガイド共に青い目をした日本人で、海が好きな感じが
全身からあふれ出ていました。

参加したタイミングが良かったのかクジラも運良く見ることができ、

ポイントを熟知しており、次回ハワイ島に来る機会があったら、また参加

Snow, frozen and chilly! 雪、凍結でチン!

Reviewed by: ゴキブリ

Since it's nature, we can't predict the weather until the reservation date. I climbed up to 2,800 meters, but it started to rain along the way. We take some time for altitude acclimatization, but due to the rain, we eat cold boxed lunches in the car. Beyond that point, the road was closed due to snow and ice. We changed our plans and headed to the west coast to watch the sunset. I was looking forward to seeing the sunset and stargazing from the summit, but... here too, the clouds obscured everything. I've seen the sunset every day for five days, so maybe it's okay.

自然相手なので予約日の天候までわかりません。
2,800mまで登ったけど途中から雨。
高地順応とかで時間を置きますが、雨のため車内で冷たい給食弁当を食べます。
それ以上先は雪と凍結で通行止めとなりました。
予定を変えてサンセットを観るため西海岸まで行きます。
山頂から見るサンセットと星空観測なのに、、。
ここも雲で何も見えず。

"Professional Dolphin Finder" 「イルカ探しのプロ」

Reviewed by: テツヤ

Dolphins are wild creatures, so there's no guarantee that you'll see them, but this tour offers a high probability of encountering them. The reason for this is that the instructor drives the boat and selects snorkeling points based on the dolphins' behavior that day. They also provide detailed instructions to help you see the dolphins up close. When the dolphins appeared right in front of us, I was very excited. I believe this is the only tour where you can see wild dolphins up close with such a high probability. I had a really great time participating. Thank you!

イルカは野生の生き物なので必ず会えると言う保証はありませんがこのツアーは、ほとんどの確率で会えます。
それは何故かと言うと、インストラクターの方が船を運転してその日のイルカの調子でポイントを選んでシュノーケリングをするからです。
またイルカを間近で見るために細かい指示をしてくれます。
今回イルカがの前に現れて、とても興奮しました。これだけ高い確率で野生のイルカを間近に見ることができるツアーはここのツアーだけだと思います。
参加できてほんとに楽しかったです。
ありがとうございます。

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>

As expected! 期待どおり!

Reviewed by: トビー

We participated as a family of four (all adults). Among the three staff members, the female staff member was fluent in Japanese, so we had no trouble understanding the explanations before snorkeling. The snorkeling lasted about 40 minutes. We were instructed to keep our bodies horizontal and look into the water, but it wasn't difficult to maintain that position since we had a foam-like stick to hold near our knees. The manta rays came close enough to touch. They are large and incredibly impressive! We were able to see at least five manta rays. The staff were very considerate, making our experience comfortable. Additionally, we received a tote bag with a manta ray design on our way back.

I was worried about seasickness, and while my wife experienced some mild symptoms, it wasn't serious, and it seemed that no other participants had issues with seasickness. However, I think it depends on the wave conditions of the day. Also, it might be wise to rent a wetsuit for an additional fee ($10 each).

家族4人で参加しました。(全員大人)
スタッフ3名のうち女性のスタッフの方は日本語が堪能なので、シュノーケリング前の説明等も問題なく理解できました。シュノーケリングは約40分間。
体を水平にして海中を覗き込むように言われましたが、発泡スチロールのような棒状のものを膝の辺りに当てるので体を水平に維持するのは疲れもせず難しくなかったです。
マンタは体に触れるくらいまで近くに来てくれます。
マンタは大きく凄い迫力です! 確認できただけでも5枚のマンタを見ることができました。
スタッフの皆さんもいろいろと気遣いしてくれて快適でした。
それと、帰りにマンタの絵が描かれたトートバッグをいただきました。

船酔いが心配でしたが、妻に少し船酔いの症状が出たものの大事には至らず、他の参加者にも船酔いした人はいなかったようです。ただ、船酔いに関してはその日の波の状況にもよると思います。
それと別料金(1着10㌦)になりますがウエットスーツは借りたほうが賢明ではないでしょうか。

Breathtaking starry sky 圧巻の星空

Reviewed by: な~さん

The summit of Mauna Kea was cold at minus 2 degrees with strong winds, and I didn't have the luxury to take photos. I experienced mild altitude sickness and felt a bit unsteady, followed by a headache later, but I was able to enjoy the experience until the end. (There were three portable toilets at the summit, but no tissues.)

By the way, the stars were amazing!! I will never forget this experience and will definitely participate again.

Lastly, the miso soup in the bento was incredibly delicious. I bought stickers and playing cards as souvenirs at the Onizuka Visitor Center. Thank you for your hospitality. Thank you very much.

マウナケア山頂はマイナス2度の強風で寒くて写真を撮りたくてもそんな余裕がありませんでした。軽い高山病か足元ふらふらで後から頭痛がしてきましたが無事に最後までたのしく終わる事が出来ました。(山頂には簡易トイレが3つありました。ティッシュ無し。)
ちなみに星が凄い!!一生忘れる事はないでしょうまた必ず参加します。

Deluxe Volcanoes National Park Experience, Black Sand Beach & Restaurant Dinner

WOW!

Reviewed by: Irwin Ohana (Family)

Jim Carey is an outstanding and knowledgeable guide who wove Hawaiian folklore, geology and local current events into an experience that we (ages 12 to 72) all enjoyed. We had a nice small group (just seven of us) which allowed Jim to go a little off script and pack a lot of experiences into our day. The transportation van was comfortable but be ready for a long drive because Jim really covers the Big Island. From the lava flows in Kona to Hilo to Kilauea, there was a lot of ground covered. The gourmet dinner of organic and locally grown steaks, fish and produce was exceptional. Don't even get me started on the dessert. We are still talking about it. The stargazing was a spectacular finish to the day.
Thank you Jim for an unforgettable experience.

I was truly impressed by Captain Daisuke's feelings of closeness to the dolphins and whales, as well as his desire to entertain us participants.

I will definitely return to the Big Island next year during whale season!

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: おきた

It takes about 10 minutes by car from the town of Kailua-Kona to the office. There were no other Japanese tourists besides us; most of the participants were from the mainland United States. Instead of a cruise ship, we boarded a boat to head out to sea. Along the way, we encountered a pod of dolphins and saw many whales up close! We got soaked on the boat, but that was also a fun memory. Snacks and water were provided during the trip. I would love to participate again if I visit the Big Island during the season.

カイルアコナの町から車で10分くらいでオフィスに着きます。

Since my accommodation was in Kailua-Kona, I had to make my way to the meeting point on foot. However, the public parking was difficult to find, which made me quite anxious, so it's necessary to check in advance. The tour exceeded my expectations as I was able to see whales up close, which was fantastic. However, the boat does rock quite a bit, so I think those who are prone to seasickness should prepare accordingly.

Miraculous Experience 奇跡体験

Reviewed by: セイヤ

February 5

On my first overseas trip to Hawaii, I was greeted by Daisuke, a staff member with a bright smile. From the moment we started moving, he shared his love for dolphins and the charm of the Big Island, which got me excited. The fact that there are many whales too made me even more thrilled.

There were 11 Japanese participants, including repeat visitors, and everyone except us was from the Kansai region, making for a lively group.

With Captain Jesse at the helm, we felt the sea breeze and sped through the ocean, which was already an attraction in itself (laughs). Along the way, we encountered manta rays and whales while listening to Daisuke's stories about dolphins, and finally arrived at the dolphin point. We donned fins and snorkels (and wetsuits and floatation devices for those who needed them) and headed into the sea! Looking down, I could clearly see the ocean floor about 15 meters below, illuminated by the sunlight. What a beautiful world.

Following Daisuke's call, I swam toward him and saw many spinner dolphins swimming right beside us, which was such a close encounter! Just as I was soaking in that excitement, the dolphins suddenly made a U-turn and sped off in the opposite direction. After waiting a bit, three bottlenose dolphins appeared. According to Daisuke, the spinner dolphins fled when the "giant" dolphins arrived.

To my surprise, the bottlenose dolphins stayed at the ocean floor, seemingly playing with each other, allowing us to watch them slowly. Daisuke mentioned that such a sight is truly rare in Hawaiian waters. It was an amazing experience to have such a rare encounter.

I highly recommend this tour if you come to the Big Island. One thing to note is that practicing snorkeling in advance can enhance your enjoyment even more.

I will definitely repeat this experience!

初めての海外とハワイ旅行、スタッフである朝晴れやかな笑顔のだいすけさんに迎えに来てもらえ、移動中からイルカ大好き&ハワイ島の魅力を教えてもらえ、ワクワク。
クジラも沢山いるね~ってことで更にワクワク。

リピーターを含めた11名の日本人、僕ら以外が全員関西の方だったので賑やかなメンバーとなりました。

船長のジェシーの運転で、海風を浴び、爽快に海を突き進む、もうこれだけでアトラクション(笑)
途中にマンタや鯨に出会いながら、だいすけさんのイルカの話を聞きながら、いよいよイルカポイントに到着。
フィンとシュノーケル(必要な人はウエットスーツと浮具)を纏いいざ海へ!
下を除くと15mくらいの海の底がはっきり見え、ふりそそぐ太陽の光。
なんて美しい世界。

こっちだよ~ だいすけさんの呼ぶ方へついていってみると、沢山のハシナガイルカが何頭も自分たちの横をすり抜けていく、こんな近くに来てくれるんだ~♪くらいに。そんな感動に浸っていると急にイルカがUターン。
ものすごいスピードで反対方向に向かっていきました。
少し待っていると、三頭のバンドウイルカ、だいすけさん曰く、ジャイアンイルカ、ハシナガイルカはジャイアンが来たら逃げていったんだそう。

そのバンドウイルカがなんと、海の底に留まって休憩、お互いにじゃれているように見えましたが、ゆっくりイルカの姿を眺めることができました。
ハワイの海では本当に珍しい奇跡のようなことだそう。
こんなレア体験ができて最高でした。

ハワイ島に来たらこのツアーをオススメします。
注意点としては、シュノーケルを事前に練習しておけると、より楽しむことができると思います☺️

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>

Close encounter with a manta! 間近にマンタ!

Reviewed by: ハワイ好き

The sight of three manta rays gracefully rising from the seabed and swirling around in a mesmerizing dance under the fantastical light was truly beautiful and moving. They came up close to us repeatedly, creating an unforgettable experience.

The rental for wetsuits was $10 for adults and $5 for children. I was honestly worried that it might be too cold to endure during this winter season in Hawaii, but thanks to the wetsuits, it wasn't as cold as I expected, and the 40 minutes flew by.

We participated as a family of five across three generations: my mother (68), my husband (44), myself (40), my daughter (16), and my son (10), and everyone was extremely satisfied! The sunset and starry sky before and after snorkeling were also spectacular. Unlike regular snorkeling, this experience involved simply holding onto a board and floating while observing, so even small children, older adults, and those who are not good swimmers can enjoy it without worry.

幻想的な光の中を3枚のマンタが海底から優雅に上がってきて、グルグルと大きく踊るように回る様子は本当に美しく、感動的な光景でした。
身体に触れる近さで何度も何度も上がってきてくれて、一生忘れられない体験になりました。
ウェットスーツは大人10ドル、子ども5ドルで貸出でした。ハワイでも冬のこの時期、正直寒すぎて耐えられないのではないかと不安だったのですが、ウェットスーツのお陰で思ったよりも寒くなく、あっという間の40分でした。
3世代、母(68歳)、主人(44歳)、私(40歳)、娘(16歳)、息子(10歳)の5人で参加しましたが、全員大満足!
シュノーケリング前後の夕日や星空も見応え満点です。普通のシュノーケリングと違い、ボードに捕まって浮かぶだけの観察なので、小さい子も年配の方も、泳ぎが苦手な方も心配なく楽しめます。

I couldn't see the bridging, but I'm glad I got to meet the mother and baby whale. ブリッジングはみられず・・が、親子クジラに会えてよかった

Reviewed by: もりぞう

My husband and I participated together. Although we didn't encounter the bridging we were expecting (it seems the encounter rate is not very high), we did see a mother and calf whale! (I wonder if they are more commonly seen around Maui??)

The transportation was smooth, and we were able to experience an activity early in the morning, which allowed us to make the most of the rest of the day. I think it was a great schedule. Everyone on board was calling out, "Which direction are they?" as we spotted the whales, enjoying the spouts and tail slaps. The tour captain explained the whales' ecology (in English) and answered various questions from the passengers, which was very educational. I would love to participate again someday and hopefully see the bridging!

夫と二人で参加しました。期待していたブリッジングには遭遇できませんでしたが(ただ遭遇率はあまり高くないとのこと)、親子クジラに出会えました!(マウイ島のほうがみられるんでしょうか??)

送迎はスムーズで、朝一にひとつアクティビティを体験でき、そのあとの一日をたっぷり使えますしよいスケジュールだと思います。乗客みんなで「何時方向にいる!」と見つけあい、潮吹きやしっぽたたきを楽しみました。ツアー船長が(英語ですが)クジラの生態について説明してくれました。乗客のいろいろな質問にも答えてくれて、学びになりました。いつかまた参加して、ぜひブリッジングを見てみたいです!

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

What has the night sky I have seen until now been... 今まで見てきた夜空はなんだったのか・・・

Reviewed by: ponchan

I was initially anxious about going to a mountain higher than Mount Fuji, but gradually acclimating my body and the fun guidance from Shin made it possible for me to reach the summit safely. At the top, I experienced the sun sinking into the clouds, the gradient after sunset, and a series of first-time experiences. After the sunset, we went stargazing at a location chosen based on the outside temperature and the night sky conditions. The moment I got out of the van, countless stars welcomed me. It was completely different from any night sky I had seen before. It was extremely cold, but the experience was so incredible that I forgot about the chill. Additionally, the photos taken by the guides are available for free download, which is great for capturing those challenging night sky shots. The miso soup in the bento was absolutely delicious!

富士山よりも高い山に行くことがまず不安でしたが、徐々に身体を慣らしていく行程、ガイドのShinさんの楽しいガイドもあって無事に山頂まで行くことができました。山頂では雲に沈む太陽、太陽が沈んだ後のグラデーションと初体験の連続。サンセットの後は外気温とその日の夜空の状況を考慮した星空観測場所での星空観測。バンから降りた瞬間、無数の星たちがお出迎え。今まで見てきた夜空とは全くの別物でした。とーっても寒かったけど、そんな寒さも忘れられるくらいの体験ができました。また、ガイドのみなさんが撮影してくれた写真も無料でダウンロードできるので難しい星空写真も手に入るのもいいですね。お弁当のお味噌汁は最高におしかったです!

It's okay. 大丈夫

Reviewed by: ikuちゃん

I was worried about various things like whether it would be hard to breathe, if it was too cold, and if I would feel sick from altitude sickness. I also wondered about the restroom situation, but everything was totally fine. The driver skillfully explained the precautions, and there was a restroom at the summit. It seems that the Milky Way is hard to see in winter, so I couldn't see it as much as I had hoped, but the starry sky was absolutely stunning. I was moved to see artificial satellites.

息苦しくないか?寒すぎるのではないか?高山病で気分が悪くならないか?
トイレはどうする?など色々心配しながら参加しましたが、全然大丈夫でした。ドライバーが上手に注意事項を教えてくれますし、山頂にトイレもありました。冬は天の川が見えにくいらしくて、期待していたほど天の川は観れませんでしたが、満天の星空でした。人工衛星が観れたのは感動でした。

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

Amazing Value!

Reviewed by: Atlanta Couple

Let me start off by saying I had a pretty low expectation for the meals when I saw they were included. The food was really great—chef made lunch and delicious beef ribs at dinner. I’m still dreaming about them. That alone provides so much value for the price.

Now, onto the tour—Keith was an amazing tour guide! He started off by learning and continually speaking to each of us individually by name. He had the greatest stories at AND between each tour stop. We really enjoyed the tour from start to finish and almost forgot how long of a day it was! And for the stargazing, we lucked out with a beautiful clear sky and Keith was knowledgeable about not only the stars we were seeing, but so much beyond that!

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 couldn't see the manta ray... what a shame. マンタ見れず・・残念

Reviewed by: ももいろ

I was disappointed that I couldn't see the manta rays, but the Japanese female staff member was very cheerful. She provided thorough explanations about the tour content and the manta rays before it started, and she made sure that all participants understood the information, including the details about the opportunity for a retry since we couldn't see them this time. Watching the sunset and the journey to the point was very enjoyable, and on the way back, she was very considerate, which left a strong impression on me. Although I didn't get to see the manta rays, I felt grateful to have participated in such a wonderful tour.

マンタには会えず残念でしたが、日本人スタッフの女性がとても明るい方で、始まる前のツアー内容やマンタについての案内から今回見れなかったための再チャレンジの案内まで、参加者全員がちゃんと理解できているか確認するように、きちんと説明してくださりました。
サンセットをみて、ポイントまでの移動はとても楽しく、帰りも色々と気を使ってくださり、そのことがとても印象的でマンタは見れませんでしたがとてもいいツアーに参加できてよかったと思いました。

This time we were disappointed not to see manta rays, but we do have a retry system, so please come back for a revenge next time! Mahalo!

今回はマンタにあえず残念でしたが、リトライ制度もございますので次回リベンジに是非いらしてください!

An experience that allows you to feel nature. 自然を感じる体験

Reviewed by: myuu

I was able to go to Mauna Kea at the best timing right after the new moon. I felt nature with my whole body, absorbed its power, and it became a wonderful start to 2019. The talk by our guide Matsuzaki, which added a special touch to the memories, was also fantastic. The tour was very well organized, with miso soup included with the bento and a jacket provided... I highly recommend it.

新月すぐ後のベストなタイミングで、マウナケアに行くことができました。自然を全身で感じ、パワーを吸収でき、素晴らしい2019年の幕開けになりました。
思い出に一花を添えるガイド松崎さんのトークも最高でした。お弁当に添えられたお味噌汁に、ジャケットに…と、至れり尽くせりのツアー、オススメです。

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Disappointing trip!

Reviewed by: J12021

It was not stated were We would go to for the Manta Ray night time snorkle. We assumed it would be in front of the SheratonKona and were disappointed it was at the secondary location. We saw one manta Ray for about three seconds and that was it. I would highly recommend going to one that is in front of the SheratonKona because we got back to our hotel and we could see them from the restaurant there!
