6月13日に参加しました。会場に行く時間が遅くなり席が後ろになってしまったのが残念でした。豚1頭をバナナの葉でくるんで熱い土の中から掘り出す儀式は、圧巻でした。海辺のサイドでのショーは、ハワイならではで会場は、皆で盛り上がり楽しかったです。バイキングの食事も満足でした。

Had a GREAT time kayaking and snorkling. The sea caves were awesome and the cliff diving a little too adventurous for me, but loved watching others. Snorkling was great. Plenty of time to enjoy everything. GREAT GUIDES.

We had a great time doing this. Our guide was so nice. She was upbeat, relaxed and professional. That set the tone for the trip and allowed all of us to relax and have fun. The sea cave was a little disappointing, it was more like a hole in the wall. The snorkeling was wonderful. All in all it was a thumbs up trip that I'd like to do again.

Our kayaking trip was amazing! We were both first-timers, and our guide (Tori) did an excellent job explaining how to paddle, safety procedures, etc. if you're like me, you may be thinking, "You all say this is easy...but maybe you're just better at things than I am." Well, trust me: this is easy, fun, and wonderful. The trip was relaxing, and during the snorkeling part we saw lots of fish (yellow tang, parrot fish), an eel, and turtles. Once we got to the cliff and snack area, we also saw a mongoose! A note on the cliff: jump. Seriously, just do it. You will regret it if you don't.
In short, take this adventure! The staff are professional and friendly, and the activity itself is not to be missed. Thank you, Tori, for one of our favorite activities! You are awesome!

このツアーに参加して思ったこと
1、周りが外人だらけになる場合があり肩身が狭いことが結構あります。
2、計3回ダイブしましたが、三回目は海の震度が深い場所でそれほど綺麗な海の中を見ることができませんでした。そして二回目以降は結構疲れているので海にもぐるのはもうお腹いっぱいでした。
上記にはあまり楽しくないようなことを書きましたが、ハワイの海の綺麗さは一回目と二回目のダイブ、特に一回目のダイブは天気が良ければ最高です!!
魚は近くで見れるし、サンゴも目の前!
また、英語がしゃべれなくてもガイドの一人は多少の日本語も喋れるのでそれほど深く考える必要はありません。ただ、場所の説明などは事前にプリントしたもので配られるますが、生の声での説明がわからないのでそこだけ残念でした。
ただ参加する人に注意しておきたいことは、海に出る前にトイレに行きますが、そこからトイレの場所に戻るまで相当時間がかかるのと、シュノーケリング中に間違って海水を飲むことがあり、その場合に水を飲むことが多いです。
なのでトイレに困るかもしれません。

飛んでいるあいだは静かで、怖さも感じず、のんびり山や海を眺めることができました。
飛ぶまで乗っているボートのほうが迫力満点でした 笑
高さをビルに換算すると怖い感じもしますが、広い海のうえでは、高さに対する怖さはなく、ただただ広い海や壮大な眺めにうっとりできます。

All in all, this is a fairly inexpensive way to spend an evening in Hawaii and as long as your expectations aren't high you will be OK. I feel that the advertisement grossly exaggerates the experience though.
"Romantic"- nope, not really. Its you and 20 other people crammed onto a motorboat screaming kids and all for an hour ride. Wine is served in plastic Solo cups, nowhere to sit except the floor... did I mention the screaming kids?
"Sail"- nope, not at all. This was my biggest disappointment since we really wanted to go on a sail. Though technically it may classify as a sailboat (and the photos in the ads clearly show a sailboat), there is no mast, no sail. It's just a boat-ride.
"Champagne"-yep, in romantic plastic cups. But it was there.
"Sunset"- this part is true
The staff were quite friendly and helpful, can't comment on the food because I didn't try it but it looked like there was plenty. Didn't see any dolphins or mermaids like some of the other suspiciously positive reviews but can't fault the company for that, it's a matter of luck. They were a little disorganized but not to the point I think it will cause any problems.
It wasn't a bad time, I just felt the title was misleading. And again, for the price it's not a bad deal for Hawaii just don't expect to be floored. You'll be asked to post a positive review, best to just be honest.

My wife and I went on the kayak and snorkel adventure about a month ago now and we were both so happy that we did. The bay itself and the surrounding areas are incredibly beautiful and kayaking is the best way to see it all. The snorkelling was great and our guide made everyone feel safe. Speaking of the guide, Jasmine was really knowledgeable and enthusiastic and made sure everyone had a great time. A personal highlight was jumping off of the cliffs into the ocean (twice!)We both had a fantastic time and I would thoroughly recommend the sea kayak adventure to anyone

This was an adventure we will treasure for a lifetime. Kayaking among Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins and snorkeling in water with a spectacularly beautiful reef; home to dozens of species of fish. We even viewed Moray Eel and a large White Tip Shark. Words cannot do this justice. Our guide, Mike, was friendly, helpful and informative. It is an ideal excursion for those new to shorkeling and kayaking. The highlight of our Hawaiian vacation. Thank you so much.

本ツアーに参加しました。今回は我々だけだったので少し悪い気がしましたが、ガイドさんも快く案内して頂きました。待ち合わせ場所は非常に簡単ですぐに合流出来、早速乗船。沖に出てすぐの所がスポットだというので拍子抜けしましたが、見ると船の周りで少し小柄なイルカちゃん達がピョンピョン飛んでます。かなりの大群です。すぐに準備して海の中に飛び込みます。視界を凄い速さでイルカが泳いで行きました! その後、海の中で待ちます。ガイドさんの指示に従い少し移動します。ずーっと目を凝らします。・・・・なかなかイルカは現れません・・。やむなくまた船に上がります。するとまたイルカの大群がピョンピョン跳ねてます! 少し様子を見てからまた海の中に。しかし、目を凝らしてもイルカは泳いでいません。イルカを船の上から見るのは簡単でも「一緒に泳ぐ」となると、かなり難易度が高い事が良く分かりました。でも沢山のイルカが迎えてくれたみたいで楽しかったです。その後はキャプテンクックの記念碑がある目の前の湾でシュノーケリングをして、軽いおやつタイムもさせてくれて、その後岸壁の洞窟にも連れて行ってくれてかなり盛り沢山でした!

姉と二人で参加しました。ハワイ島初上陸&初海外レンタカーだった為ピックアップがないと知った時は無事集合場所に着けるか心配でしたが、とてもわかりやすい立地と運転しやすい道のりで集合時間20分前に無事到着できました。英語が全くできない私達皆さんの口コミを読ませて頂いていたので英語が出来なくてもなんとかなるかなぁと思いましたが、当日参加されていたのは私達を除く11名はみなさん英語圏の方たちだった為やはり英語の大切さを実感させられた時間でした。しかし、英語が全く分からない私達ですが、キャプテンがたびたび大丈夫か?と声をかけてくださり、とても楽しい時間を過ごす事が出来ました。シュノーケルの時間にはイルカがボートの近くを泳いでいました。残念ながら私達は海から上がってボートにいる時だったので一緒に泳ぐことは出来ませんでしたがとても近くでイルカを見ることが出来ました。ボートはとてもスピードが速く一緒に同乗していたご高齢のご婦人に心配をされてしまい(私はとても体格がよいにも関わらず。。。)安全な席に移動させられてしまいましたが、それでも海面とボート角度がほぼ90度!とても楽しかったです。次回は、クジラが見える時期に、そして他の国の方たちとコミュニケーションが取れるように英語をマスターして参加したいです。楽しい時間をありがとうございました。

今回は、大学生と高校生の息子と3人で大空を舞いました。(1人より長く飛んでいられます。)溶岩がゴツゴツと続く海岸線、空に続く水平線、ピカピカ光る水面…。全てがとても美しく感動的で、シャッターを切り続けました。ボートが点に見えるくらい高く上がったのですが、怖さは全く感じず、幸せな時間を過ごすことができました。

Aloha! この度は弊社ドルフィンツアーにご参加くださり誠にありがとうございます。ボートからイルカ達の姿が見えても、海の中で見えにくかったということは、彼らが移動モードだったか、あまのじゃくな日だったのかもしれませんね。イルカ達は自然の生き物で、毎日ボートを出してみないと彼らのコンディションがわからないという事ご理解くださりありがとうございます。たくさんのイルカがジャンプをしていたということですので、ご機嫌だけど、自分達だけで楽しみたかったのかもしれないですね。
洞窟へのクルージングも楽しんでいただいたようで、私共も大変嬉しく存じます。海から見るハワイ島の景色も別の表情でまた美しいですよね。
またハワイ島へお越しの際はぜひKona Ocean Experienceに会いにいらしてくださいね。 Mahalo Nui Loa!!
