The crew was great, the manta turn out was amazing, and the boat ride is short (which is ideal for when you’re cold and ready to get warm again haha). We got lucky that it was a small group so there were plenty of options to sit and have a lovely view of the sunset while heading out. 10/10 would do again.

MUST DO!
This was a great tour - really educational and fun. Be prepared for rain, you are in the rainforest and it rains a lot. Our guide came prepared with umbrellas and rain jackets, flashlights for the lava tube, water and snacks.
Andre, our tour guide was amazing, experienced and incredibly knowlegable of the volcanoes, land, plants and trees, Hawaiian culture, plus more, and the history of all mentioned. He made sure we were always entertained during the approx. 8 hour trip.
Would recommend shorts, closed toed shoes (sneakers fine) suntan lotion, somewhat water repellant light jacket (in case your tour does not provide).

ちょっと早めの9時過ぎにチェックインした際にパーキングのゲートが閉まっていたので少し戸惑いましたが、受付後はスムーズにヘルメット、ブーツ、上着のレンタルを受けて、ガイドさんに馬を選んでもらって乗り込むところまではすぐでした。
ランチの広大な敷地をガイドに沿って馬と共に進むのはとても爽快でした。
私の馬は立髪がおしゃれにシマシマになったOliver、妻は栗毛のVodka、どちらもいい馬でした
途中ガイドのジェシカが写真を撮ってくれたりして
時間は予定より少し超過して11時過ぎに帰着となりました。
とても良い思い出になりました

英語も苦手、乗馬も初めて、だけどアッと言う間の90分でした。
最高の景色の草原をパカパカゆっくり巡って、最後の50メートルを少々スピードを上げて走って多少お尻が痛かったが、とっても楽しかった!
振り返ると虹が出ていて、心が更に晴れました。

今回初めて参加しました。乗馬自体も初めてだったので少し不安でしたが参加することに決めました。今回は私たちだけが参加だったようでガイドさん独り占めでいきました。私は乗馬初めてなのでまず馬の制御に気を取られていましtが景色は雄大でゆっくり進んでくれるので楽しめました。聞こえてくるのは風の音だけ。見えるのは草原と眼下に見える海、草を食べている牛たちのみ。
日本では味わえないリラックス感でした。今度来た時も絶対参加します。

We couldn't have asked for a better trip. I especially appreciated the small group size - eight people - which meant that we were able to watch the mantas without getting in each other's way. My sister and I were at the end of the line, opposite each other. This meant that as the manta rays turned over and swam upside down just under the light board - only a few inches away from us - we could look right down their throats. I was amazed at how clean and empty their large mouths were. It was fascinating to see their gills from the inside as well as the outside.
It was wonderful to watch the mantas swim. They move so smoothly they hardly seem to be propelling themselves. The patterns on their backs fluoresce in the light, so they're easy to see.
We watched by lining up on either side of a board, holding on to it and floating stretched out away from it, with flotation devices like pool noodles under our ankles. This keeps our bodies away from the mantas, which is for their protection, not ours. (The mantas are harmless. No teeth, no sting. They eat plankton, not people!)
Two tips:
1. The staff had us put the pool noodles under our ankles, but in that location, it's easy to lose the noodle. Try putting it just below your knees instead. It's much easier to keep in place that way, and if your knees are at the surface, the rest of your legs will be also.
2. If you do lose your noodle, don't panic or kick. Keep your head down, relax, stay as flat as you can, and allow the water to support your body. Staff members will retrieve the noodle and slip it under your legs again. Kicking disturbs the mantas, and the stress is bad for them.

On the whole, I'm glad I went. It was a lovely day, the boat was comfortable, and food great. The trip included a plant-based breakfast and lunch, with Kona coffee and alcoholic drinks available for purchase. The boat stopped twice on the way out so our guide could explain what we were seeing along the shore.
All the staff members were delightful and took good care of us.
Unfortunately, Kealakekua Bay did not offer the variety of sea life I experienced in other Hawaiian locations. I wonder if the reef has been affected by global warming. My prior experiences were 20 years ago, so things may be different now.
My experience was complicated by the fact that the corrective face masks were only available in a medium, which was too large for me. Consequently, I had major water leakage and was unable to spend much time snorkeling. One of the staff explained that supply chain problems have limited the availability of corrective masks. That's a good reason for bringing your own!
My sister, who had her own mask, explored more widely and commented on the relative scarcity of sea life, although she did see one kind of fish that was new to her.
Nevertheless, the trip was fun. I enjoyed my run down the slide - my sister's dared me to do it!
A number of snorkeling tours go to Kealakekua Bay. I looked at the other tour boats there and concluded that ours was the best. All in all, it was a great way to spend the morning. (Did I mention that both breakfast and lunch were delicious?)

Staff was terrific at all levels; dock staff, wait staff, bar tenders, historian, musician, & Captain. Everyone was upbeat, personable, courteous, professional, and entertaining.
Food was excellent and the drinks were generous. The captain was very personable and entertaining. Mother-nature provided us with a pod of pilot whales to observe, while keeping a safe distance. Historian was fabulous, giving everyone a much better appreciation and respect for the Hawaiian culture. The music got everyone rocking and rolling with the motion of the boat. A great selection of songs that had the passengers engaged in song.
Can't say much more. We loved it, would do it again, and would highly recommend it to everyone. It was a 3 hour tour that was well worth it.

広々とした牧場と青い空の中での乗馬はとても気持ちがよかったです。馬がとても賢いので、初心者の私達も楽しむことができました。
ガイドは若い女性二人で、馬に乗る姿がとてもかっこよかったです。高所のせいなの午後だったからなのか私達が参加した日は風が強く半袖では少し寒いと感じました。
集合場所は、行き方の補足説明(マイルマーカー「11」を過ぎて右側にでてくる『カフアランチ』の入り口からお入りください。)を意識しておかないとちょっとわかりにくいかな、と思いました。道路から敷地に入り、その先の駐車場の入口には簡易的な扉があり、自分で開けて入るスタイルだったので、「ここでいいのかなあ・・」とちょっと躊躇してしまいました。先着してた方々の車が止まっていなかったら引き返したかも、と思いました。
乗馬前の説明は英語のみですが、苦手な私でも意味はなんとなくわかりました。日本人観光客が多いのかもしれません。この時は10人中8人は日本人(日本人3家族と英語圏のカップルが1組)でした。
牧場なので平らなところばかりではなく、坂道があったり、牛が放牧されている直ぐ側を通ったりと自然を満喫できました。

No hate on other tour places and I def seen a few but the tour guides, the views and the experience is def #1 on this tour. I did a lot of extensive research and finalized this tour but it definitely exceeded my expectations. The views they take you on are incredible. I mean you will probably never see anything like it on any other tour. We actually seen another ATV tour on our ziplining adventure tour and I'm so glad I chose this one. Other tours are shorter and don't have the exciting adventure this one gives you. You are literally driving through a farm/valley/on the coast and then to a private water fall. You get fresh fruit picked off the trees guys its amazing Im telling you. If you are having trouble deciding I will decide for you THIS ONE IS IT! The tour guides gave us so much info, they were funny, gave us such a big history lesson and overall they just made this memorable. I wish i chose this company for my ziplining adventure as well. But you live and learn. Overall had a blast and def recommend. Also: Not to far from Kona and the views on the drive here are amazing.

コハラコーストのすてきな景色と、目の前に広がるハワイアンブルーの空と海、その向こうにかすかに見えたマウイ島に大満足です。
