We come to this Luau every year! We have a timeshare so this year was our 7th time to the big island and the 4th time to this show. We tried shows in other places but came back to this one because the food is the best, the setting is right on the water, and the show is most entertaining. Everyone makes it fun from the host who takes tickets and encourages a lei purchase, the photographer, the announcer for the show, the musicians, the artists who go through many costume changes and the wait staff. We recommend this show to anyone who asks. Thank you all for your committed and talented time. See you next year!

Nick and Misty did a great job interacting with the group and went out of their way to make sure everyone was comfortable with the tour and the information. Our day was 12 hours long and was very enjoyable from the time we were picked up at our hotel till late in the evening. The volcano lava viewing in the evening was amazing!
Aloha! Mahalo for joining us on our Deluxe Volcano Experience. We are delighted to hear that you had such a great day with Nick and Misty, and stayed comfortable throughout your 12 hours on tour.

出発前日に日本語ガイドさんが手配できなかったとのことで、急遽英語のガイドさんに。
どうなる事かと思ったけど、一生懸命コミュニケーションとってくださって、かえって海外来たって感じられました。
そして、肝心のイルカもたくさん泳いでて
何より目の前をクジラが通るとこも見れて最高!!
ガイドさんやキャプテンですらも大はしゃぎでしたw
ギッタカ様、わざわざお時間を割いてレビューを書いてくださり、誠にありがとうございました。日本語ガイドをご用意出来ず申し訳ありませんでした。「かえって海外来たって感じられた」というそのギッタカ様の気持ちのもちように感謝いたします。イルカだけでなく、クジラにも遭遇出来たようでそれはそれは良かったです。弊社の英語ガイドは英語を母国語として話されないお客様の応対にも慣れておりますが、やはり日本語ガイドとは違いますから、そこを柔軟に対応してくださったギッタカ様に感謝申し上げます。

集合場所をGoogleMapで確認すると、H1沿いになってしまうのでホテルのフロントで確かめて慎重に向かいました。まずは車で行き駐車場や場所を確認し、結局は今回宿泊していたシェラトンから歩いてケアウホウ湾に行きました。プライベートビーチぐらいの大きさで反対側にいても問題なくたどり着ける距離でした。
カヤックは主人も私も初めてで、思った通りになかなか進まなかったりしましたが、この日は本当に天気が良く無事に洞窟までたどり着くことができました!
他の人のコメントにあったとおり、脱げないサンダルやトレッキング用シューズがあったほうが良いです。天候によっては陸地にいけないこともありますが、念のため持って行ったほうがよいです。私たちはビーチサンダルしかなかったのですが、ガイドのお兄さんが「水に浮くから落としても拾えるから問題ない」と言ってました。
現地で売ってる防水の使い捨てカメラがあると気兼ねなく写真を撮ることができるのでお勧めです。
あと、主人は足の内側だけ焼けてました。日焼け対策は万全にしておいたほうが良いです。

From the top of Mauna Kea you truly see forever. However, be prepared! At these heights it is also breath taking... that is, there is less air up there!! The guides were great and prepared you for the trip in every way. The dinner was good and the star gazing after coming half way back down was amazing.

Right before dinner, they located a manta ray as well. The crew also found another whale on the ride home. Great time and very family friendly.

This was a great time and we can't wait to do it again! We were all able to stand up on our surf boards because of their great teaching, and we loved being in the water with the instructors. Very kind staff! The lesson on the land was a little long and repetitive, but very worth it for the water time. Jake and Tiffany were the best instructor!
Thank you guys for joining us out on the water and for taking the time to write us a review. We had a great time sharing the waves with you as well and so stoked to hear your awesome board stories and feedback. Mahalo Nui- Team HLSI
