但し、

全く英語での説明、
しかも全く早口日本人に対する配慮はありませんでした。

念のため。

The cruise was nice, we saw plenty of whales surfacing for air. took some great videos. figure out of you get seasick and be properly equipt. The crew were great and the captain was very knowledgeable. He gave a great talk on the island, whales, and any question people were curious about.

クジラは、思っていたより近くに現れなかったけれど、数はたくさん見ることができました。天候に恵まれて、穏やかな海の上を風をきって進む感じがなんともいえなく爽快でした。海から見える山の景色も最高です。スタッフは日本語を話せず、参加者も8割は外国の方なので、状況を理解する程度の英語力は必要です。またピックアップの際、ロビーという連絡がありましたが実際にはホテルのエントランスを出てすぐの車寄せのところで乗り合わせていたので、注意が必要です。

ピックアップが、ホテルに09時55分でした。港には10時半にはつきましたが、港に降ろされて何も説明なく、車はいなくなってしまい、bodyglobeの船を探したが、見つかりません。周りの人に聞いてみると、12時半チェックインとのこと。
ピックアップ時間と、チェックイン時間に差があり過ぎて困ります。
肝心のクジラは、きちんと見ることが出来ましたが、とても遠くに小さなしっぽだけ…(>_<)残念でしたが、イルカの群れが帰り際に見れたことと、三時間近く船に乗ることが出来ました。迫力は足りなかったけど、クジラとイルカの群れが見れたのはlucky!でした。果物も美味しかった!

12月9日に参加致しました。
まだクジラウォッチングには時期が早いのか
遠方にちらっと現れ、船で近付くといなくなり、
離れると、また遠方に現れる の連続でした。
シーズン初めで船長がポイント慣れしていないのか
もう少し、我慢が必要かなと思いましたね。
日本語は全く通じないので説明含めほとんど理解できず
残念なツアーになりました。

The guides were knowledgable and friendly. They were attentive to the needs and comfort of the passengers. My 8 yr old grandson was given the cushioned seat in the center (also the safest) and they even provided a life jacket. We saw a Humpback family group that breached numerous times. It was great! The disclaimer says it is not for those with mobility issues or bad backs, etc - believe them! Seating is on the side pontoons and would definitely be very uncomfortable for someone like my husband, who has 2 hip replacements (he did not go with us). I definitely recommend this activity!

It was ok. Was disappointed with how far away they were and didn't get a chance to see them closer. I know it's not their fault and I don't feel there is anything they can do to improve. It's kind of a hit or miss kind of deal. The day we went there was a cruise ship that docked, so there were a lot more people than we expected.

This was my second trip out to see the whales with Captain Colin and crew. Went last year, could hardly wait to go again, got the opportunity and took it. The Captain is wonderful, he makes the trip both entertaining and informative, also exciting. We had the experience of a life time both trips, saw whales and dolphins. The zodiac ride is always wild and exciting. The Captain and his crew make sure the visitors are safe and as comfortable as possible under the circumstances and are given the opportunity to see and understand the animals in the ocean. Colin and his crew love their job and the ocean and convey that feeling to the visitors. I would and will go back.

It was great. As soon as we got out to the ocean, we spotted a mother and a baby whale. We were there for a couple of hours, and we probably saw 5, 6 whales. The staff and the captain did a great job catering all the guests (maybe about 30 of them on board). The naturalist explained a lot about the humpback whales, and it was very educational.
I'd highly recommend this one. It's very family friendly also, and the little kids were very excited to see the real whales in the ocean.

This was the first time for our family to go snorkeling and it was a great trip. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Also, there are things to do if you don't want to snorkel.

My kids wanted to see some dolphins, and I am so glad the wonderful staff at Hawaiiactivities.com helped me choose the best one for my family!
Breakfast and lunch was included! Plus, they had a waterslide which my kids LOVED! The staff was friendly and very helpful in adjusting my son's snorkel mask. We seen a lot of dolphins swimming around so we were not disappointed.
Views of the coastline was beautiful and the water was so crisp and refreshing. Next time we visit the Big Island, I am definitely doing this activity. Thank You Body Glove and Hawaiiactivities.com!!

Dear all,
Thanks again for the efficient assistance in regards to the health problems of my wife Gertrud and thanks for bringing us back to the jetty that quickly. After all my wife is ok and has recovered. The doctors were not able to say clearly what happened, it could have been a minor stroke or a very short term amnesia (short term oxgene problem due to snoreklling). But we enjoyed the trip before and our holidays after very much!
thanks again and see you later / Herbert & Family

Me and my husband had SO much fun yesterday put on the boat. The staff was really friendly, the Captain got us right into the whales, too. We saw 9, 3 of which came right up next to the boat. The man who spoke during the boat rode (sorry I don't remember the name) was really knowledgeable and funny, too! We had a great time! Thank you for an experience we'll never forget.

My entire family, that includes my mom, dad, sister, two brothers and my grandparents all went to the Big Island of Hawaii and oh my goodness was it a trial finding activities and stuff that everyone in the group wanted to do and would enjoy doing.
This whale watching was hands-down the best thing that we did together! The younger siblings loved seeing the whales from the boat, and even dolphins, and seeing the reef fish through the glass. Both my parents and my grandparents loved being able to relax and enjoy the cruise and the crew on-board was simply top notch!
Wonderful, that is all I can say..wonderful!

...about to this cruise. My children and I utterly loved this tour and I just want to thank the unforgettable crew members who made this trip a highlight of our vacation. From the moment we stepped onto the boat until we stepped off, it was an absolute pleasure.
Hearing my children's sounds of joy when they saw their first whale breach from the water is something that I will remember always.

TOTALLY AMAZING! When my friends and I saw this tour we were like, "Hmmm, whale watching? Sure why not!" and I am so glad that we decided to go. The boat was great, the view was priceless and seeing humpback whales jumping and slapping the water is something that I will never forget...ever. Like what a great memory to bring back home with me. Take this tour! You won't regret it!

I hope that everyone who goes to Hawaii gets a chance to participate in this tour since it was one of the best tours I went to when I was in the Big Island in Hawaii. The captain went on a great route in the water to see many places and we saw whales which was the best part of the day. If you go to Hawaii and the Bid Island, I say you should get to this tour. I want to go again!

My husband and I went on the morning boat ride and snorkel - we saw both whales and dolphins! I never thought to see so many, there must have been 40 dolphins, and they were even jumping out of the water.
From the prairies I've never had much experience with the ocean and I was nervous how people would treat me given I was nervous. But the staff was excellent, they were helpful and informative, and you could tell they really love their job.
I had an excellent time snorkeling, and my husband did the SNUBA which he also enjoyed a lot. It was a beautiful location.
My only recommendation is to bring extra anti-nauseant medication if you know you get queasy! Mine ran out - but it only serves further to speak of the crew, they took care of me and even had ginger drinks to help calm my stomach.
I'd go on this cruise again in an instance, it was longer than I thought, and the food was good too. What an experience!

We just came back from our honeymoon in the Big Island. We took this whale watch trip, and I must say this was by far the most enjoyable sailing trip we did in Hawaii. Being Discovery Channel lovers, we were so excited to see the real whales in front of us! We can't wait to go back there someday. Five stars!
