ホテルから飛行場の場所は少し車で走りました。飛行場の待合ロビーは混雑しており、注意していないと乗るべきヘリ案内を聞き逃しそうです。
フライト中は、日本人だけで英語と日本語のバイリンガルの説明ではなかったので、情報量も十分で充実したものとなりました。英語と日本語の説明だと疲れるので、とてもラッキーでした。コース、フライト時間も申し分なく、噴火しているハワイ島を堪能しました。帰りのタクシーまでの時間が少なく、フライト映像のUSBが書き上がらず、ハラハラしましたが。

We enjoyed the luau, the food and the program. This is our second luau and by far, it was the more enjoyable one. The food was good and the entertainment was captivating. The program was surprisingly interactive which made it even more enjoyable. My 12 yr olds appreciated that there were foods they could identify (mac n cheese, chicken nuggets) after trying the poi, lomi and poke.

We had a wonderful time! We had 5 of us from 5 to 28 years of age and everyone had a great time. The views were magnificent and they were great with our 10 year old and telling her how to row. The guides were fun and knew their stuff. 10/10 recommend.

The views are amazing. The entertainment was great, the food and service were garbage. The food was ice cold and tasted terrible. My meat was all fat and sauce. The tiny package of Mac nuts and salad were the only thing edible. Getting a staff member to do anything but dance and have fun was difficult.the views and dolphins are worth the money but eat before you go and bring your own drink or you’ll be parched.

Amazing tour with superb crew. Once in a life should do it to see manta ray. I saw two mantas because of seasick, I had to return the boat at earlier time, but my daughter really enjoyed it and saw a lot of mantas. The girl of three crew was really nice, she stayed with us when she knew we were first time snorkeling, and carried me back to the ship when I felt nausea and showed her that I would like to go back. Definitely recommend this tour to my friends. Just remind to have seasick pills ready if you worry about it.

This was by far the best excursion we did on our trip. The crew was so accommodating and put this adventure over the top. This was my first time snorkeling and they were able to provide excellent training as well as guidance throughout the swim. They dove down to bring up starfish, sea cucumbers, & other creatures for us to check out. We were served lunch and delicious drinks after spending time in the water. The boat was clean, & we had a comfortable ride to and from the snorkeling location. This is a trip you can’t miss!

Had seating for 5 and was awesome to get our photo taken so if we wanted, we could purchase after the show. It rained in the beginning for half an hour but they had ponchos for everyone. Finally the rain stopped and the music was cool. We got to eat and the show started. Loved everything about the host and how he explained everything like a story teller. My family enjoyed the food and the show. The luau was great and we left happy! Photos and memories! I recommend for sure. Mahalo!

We were able to spend ample time viewing and enjoying the highlights. Toshi was very knowledgeable about a wide range of topics related to the areas we flew over. Highly recommend this trip for anyone considering it.

The crew was excellent. We saw dolphins on the way out. Only disappointment was we were expecting to go to Kealakekua Bay for snorkeling as advertised, but due to weather conditions, they chose to go north of the airport. We went to a beach area that you can only access with 4 wheel drive or by boat. Beautiful location. The crew took us to shore, and took us over to the queens bath for a bit. Nice time over all.

Our family did the Captain Cook snorkel trip in early April. The boat takes less than 15 people (11 on our trip), it is a small but stable inflatable type. The water was a little choppy for our trip, but not enough to prevent the go-ahead. We had to hang on as the boat jumped and rolled its way through the waves making hte journey unexpectedly exciting. We had a relaxed, informative and personable captain and one other crew member. The boat zipped out towards the Captain Cook monument area which has excellent snorkeling. Pretty much everyone on the boat was snorkeling for the first time. Sea Quest supplied full snorkel gear including prescription masks for one of our party. Inflatable Snorkel vests and pool noodles were also made available for those who prefer a little extra buoyancy. We stopped a couple of times on the way to check out a large pod of spinners dolphin and for an overview of the Big Island as viewed from out at sea. Once we got to Capt. Cook, we had about 1.5 hours to snorkel. The snorkeling was outstanding - clear calm water, tons of fish & coral. Sea Quest supplied snacks and drinks. Everyone had a great time and a lasting fun family memory was made. Great work Sea Quest!

It was a little unclear as to where we would be met by the tour group. We flew in from Big Island and proceeded to baggage claim area outside where we saw a bunch of people waiting. This is where your bus will meet you. After that, we were met by Frank out driver and guide and he was great! We had plenty of time to see the following sites...USS Missouri, Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum (we ate lunch here), Pearl Harbor Memorial. Now at the Pearl Harbor Memorial choose your time wisely. Me, my wife and 8 year old son went on the USS Bowfin, then over to our USS Arizona ferry. When we returned, saw the USS Arizona anchor, another USS Arizona memorial and Submarine Memorial. Overall an incredible day and a great learning experience for me and my family.

We had a great time at the Royal Kona Voyagers of the Pacific luau. The dancers and musicians were wonderful, the setting was stunning and the food was very filling. I would recommend planning on getting there a bit early as parking does get crowded and you do have to wait in line to check in, but the process was quick and very smooth.

For what it is, the cruise seemed pricey to us. You board the boat and then sail along the coast for about 45 minutes before heading back in. We were relieved to find that though our cruise was scheduled to end at 6:30, we stayed out on the water long enough to watch the actual sunset—the whole point of the cruise for us!
The crew is small but nice. We were a bit dismayed to arrive and see a large number of young children booked on the same cruise. Maybe it's just us, but who drags infants and toddlers onto a sunset cocktail cruise?!? Predictably, a number of the children wound up getting sick (gee, who didn't see that coming?), and many puke buckets were passed out. While I can't fault the company for that, I wish they would limit the sunset cocktail cruises to adults only (or at least offer it on a number of nights). There are plenty of other boats that parents can drag their children onto in Hawaii. And if you can afford to bring your kids to Hawaii on vacation, you can afford a sitter for a few hours while the adults go have fun. (Note to the crew: Unless every passenger on the boat is puking their guts out, don't suggest heading back early just because some parent decided to introduce their 2 year old to sailing on the open ocean and the kid got sick. I'm sorry the kid is sick, but I paid for a 1.5 hour cruise and I expect to get what I paid for.)
The snack offering was decent; cocktail options were more limited and (of course) watered down, but I think that's expected on something like this.
All in all, we enjoyed ourselves but overall felt it was overpriced and saw many areas for improvement.
