Kona Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour - Small-Group Adventure from Keauhou Bay

A Magical Night!

Reviewed by: John, 2021/05/07

We loved the experience! Saw 6 to 8 mantas swimming near our little surfboard. They made multiple backflips just inches from us. Nice captain and guide.

Comments from activity operators

Waipio Valley Waterfalls & Horseback Riding Tour with Naalapa Stables [Closed]

Gorgeous Ride

Reviewed by: Stefanie, 2021/05/06

Unforgettable ride through the valley. There were 7 of us + 2 guides (+ 4 dogs who tagged along for their morning walk!). Incredible views, and we lucked out with perfect weather. It felt like an adventure rather than a tour; our route took us through streams, and we saw many wild horses, including a couple of fouls! I came with my mom, who isn't keen on doing activities like this, but she loved it. Thank you!

Waipio Shuttle - An Exceptional Guided Sightseeing Tour of Waipio Valley

Love Waipio Valley

Reviewed by: M. and C. Lee, 2021/04/24

My niece came to visit from Pennsylvania and loved Waipio Valley.
Douglas was a great tour guide and told wonderful stories. We learned about Waipio vegetation, including the beautiful Gardenia he picked for us. Douglas shared a story about how his grandparents ate Nonni, smelly fruit but healthy for you. Loved hearing about the people of the valley who do not have electricity but are hard working taro farmers. Mahalo Nui Loa Douglas.

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

Easiest snorkeling we've ever done

Reviewed by: Dave W, 2021/04/22

This is an amazing experience and it's so easy, you barely need to know how to swim. You just lay w/ your face in the water and the mantas come to you. Actually they come to feed on plankton which are attracted by the lights that the crew shine in the water. It's a super-cool experience and the crew on our boat were awesome. Highly recommended.

My family really enjoyed this excursion and it was one of the highlights of our trip! We learned about this sacred ground and were able to capture amazing photos along the way! Hawaii’s largest waterfall, wild horses coming up to our van, and great family pictures were taken. Our driver, Daniel, was focused on our safety including following Covid safety protocols.

Ultimate Hawaii Circle Island Sightseeing, Kilauea Volcano & Waterfall Tour

Great way to see the Big Island in a day!

Reviewed by: Sandy and Phil, 2021/04/07

We were only on island for two days, so we had to make the most of it. Rich picked us up promptly and we set out with a total of nine passengers. The van was comfortable, and Rich had water and lunch ready for us, along with clean jackets and umbrellas for the chilly rainy segments of the trip. The drive was safe and pleasant, and Rich regaled us with information and stories. At each stop, he allowed us ample time and shared interesting information.

This was a wonderful day, and we not only saw the island but also learned a lot. Highly recommended, especially if you can get Rich as your driver/tour guide!

Speedi Shuttle Kona Airport Transportation Service

Speedi Shuttle Did The Job

Reviewed by: Island Hopper, 2021/04/05

Used Speedi Shuttle for 4 total transfers during my multi island trip. They were always on time, very responsive and communicative regarding my trips. Though I booked for the 'shared' option, 3 out of the 4 transfers I was the only rider, so it was a great value. Would definitely use again when I'm not renting a car in HI.

This was our first time riding ATVs and i literally thpught we would get stuck...but these things can go thru anything! My sister rode the single, my daughter and i rode a double. We couldnt help smiling the whole time! We got myddy, but we planned to. The scenery was breathtaking and the falls were muddy from the recent rain, but we didnt care. I would definitely suggest if you are on the fence, dont be! 100,% worth it!!

Island Breeze Big Island Kona Luau at King Kamehameha Hotel with Open Bar

My kids LOVED this show!

Reviewed by: Lval , 2021/03/16

As a parent of 7 year old twins, who seeks out kid friendly activities, I’m so grateful I chose this show. This was their first show since COVID. They offered a selection of kid friendly food which I appreciated. The rest of the food was amazing and the drinks were delicious! Now to the entertainment. This group of performers were so enthusiastic that the captured my kids attention the whole time. The story they told was beautiful. My kids were doing their best to follow the dancers moves and the waitstaff were so kind to compliment them. The fire dancer at the end got a standing ovation! From the music and performers to the food and staff, they all exceeded any expectations! Well done!

Big Island Afternoon Whale Watch Tour from Kona - Body Glove Cruises [Dec - Mar]

Where are the whales?

Reviewed by: Disappointed , 2021/02/27

I have been on a whale watching tour in the past and the captain took us directly to where the whales were and we were so close and able to get great pictures for the entire tour. That was not the case here; we were constantly looking for whales and all we ever saw was the “blow” and some splashing from quite a distance. It was very disappointing. I would think these guys would know where to go since they do this everyday. We were in the boat for several hours and never saw anything to identify this as a good trip! I would have expected them to take us somewhere to see the whales, we seemed to hang out in the same area just hoping a whale would show up!
The boat was very nice and the people were nice too but the whales were missing!! This was the beginning of February, isn’t that the best time?

Comments from activity operators

Aloha and thank you for joining us on our tour.

Unfortunately whales are not stationary animals and try as we might, we have not gotten them to agree to be on payroll.
As whale watching is a gamble by nature, we offer a guarantee of whale sightings or come again free. We wish you would have taken us up on it so you could have come out on another day. We hope the rest of your vacation on the big island was great!

Great Experience!

Reviewed by: Kim, 2021/02/25

We saw a variety of humpback groups, including a mother with a very curious calf. We even saw one breech a few times! Staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. Took a lot of questions from the group. We also saw a group of manta rays on our way back to shore! My 4 year old had as equally good time as his grandparents. Would definitely recommend!

Kona Whale Watch Tour & Rafting Adventure - Captain Zodiac [Dec-Mar]

Amazing experience

Reviewed by: Tessa , 2021/02/23

We got to see lots of whales. We saw whales breach & fin slap. We saw a baby calf very closely & she looked right at us. Then, the calf swam under our boat as the mom followed & then the huge escort male whale followed. Definitely was a trip to remember! Both the captain Chuck & lifeguard aboard were excited to see the whales & were very excited to share their knowledge! Our captain took us north away from all of the other boats. Which made us feel very connected to the whales & not like tourists.
