4200 meters. The sunset in the sky and the snowy Mauna Kea, it was a dreamlike world. ４２００メートル。天空の夕日と雪のマウナケア、夢の世界でした。

Reviewed by: あんみつ姫

On February 1st, two women in their 60s participated in the "Mauna Kea Summit Sunset and Stargazing Tour." We were picked up at the hotel at 1 PM, and the weather was unstable that day. According to our guide, it was raining at the Onizuka Center, so we quickly had dinner at Mauna Kea Park. It was still just after 4 PM, and we weren't very hungry, but the Japanese-style bento and warm miso soup after several days were so delicious that we finished them quickly. We appreciated the thoughtful gesture of providing towels for everyone to sit on the park benches. As we drove up, feeling anxious about whether we would make it to the top, the rain stopped, and the sun peeked out, as if our prayers were answered. It turned out that the gate closed right after we passed through. We were lucky.

At the summit, there was a lot of snow, and the wind was very strong, but the view of the sea of clouds and the sunset from 4,200 meters felt like being in another world, making us forget the cold as we were captivated by the scenery. I heard that snow on Mauna Kea is only present at this time of year, which filled my heart with emotion. I was a bit worried about altitude sickness, but by following the guide's instruction not to run, all 11 participants that day were in good spirits. The temperature dropped, and due to road freezing, unfortunately, we had to go down to 2,800 meters for stargazing. Even though I borrowed ski wear, my fingers were numb at 4,200 meters, but I didn't feel cold once we descended to 2,800 meters. We were shown Venus and a crescent moon through a telescope, and then Mr. Ichikawa gave a stargazing presentation. Using an excellent laser pointer that clearly indicated stars and constellations in all directions, he taught us in a very easy-to-understand and enjoyable way. I was amazed by Mr. Ichikawa's depth of knowledge about stars. I was delighted to see Orion's sword clearly, which is not often visible in Japan. I heard that the Southern Cross can also be seen at midnight. It was a very satisfying tour, and I’m really glad I participated. If you go to the Big Island, I highly recommend Mauna Kea.

2/1　６０代のおばさん２人で、「マウナケア山頂サンセットと星空ツアー」に参加しました。午後1時にホテルでピックアップ、不安定な空模様の日でした。オニヅカセンターは、雨が降っているとのガイドさんの話で、下のマウナケアパークで急きょ夕食を食べました。まだ４時過ぎで、おなかはあまりすいていませんでしたが、何日かぶりの日本食の幕の内弁当と、温かい味噌汁がとても美味しくて、ぺろっと食べてしまいました。公園のベンチのイスの上に敷くタオルまで、全員分用意してくださって、気づかいに感謝です。上まで行けるのだろうかと不安な気持ちを乗せて車が走っていると、祈りが通じたのか雨も上がり、太陽が顔を出してくれました。なんと、私達が通過したすぐ後にゲートクローズになったそうです。ラッキーでした。山頂は、雪がたくさんあり
風もとても強かったですが、４２００メートルからの雲海や夕日が沈んでいく景色は、別世界にいるようで、寒さも忘れて見入ってしまいました。雪のあるマウナケアは、いまの時期だけだと聞いて、胸がいっぱいになりました。高山病がちょっと心配でしたが、「走らないように」とのガイドさんの指示を守ったら、当日の参加者１１人全員元気でした。気温も下がり、路面凍結とのことで、残念ながら星空観察は２８００メートルまで下りて行いました。スキーウエアを借りていても、４２００メートルでは指がかじかんでいましたが、２８００メートルまで下がると寒さを感じませんでした。金星と半月を望遠鏡で見せていただき、そのあとは市川さんの星空解説会。遠くまではっきり示せる性能バツグンのレーザーポインターを使って、東西南北に見える星と星座をとてもわかりやすく、楽しく教えてくれました。市川さんの星の知識の深さにビックリでした。日本ではよく見えないオリオンの剣まではっきり見え、嬉しくなりました。夜中には、南十字星も見えるそうです。大満足のツアーです。参加できて本当に良かったです。ハワイ島に行ったら、絶対マウナケアおすすめです。

I participated in this tour on January 26, 2020. Although it was cloudy at the start, the clouds cleared at the summit, and we were blessed with good weather. The view from the highest point of my life, with the snowy mountains, blue sky, and sea of clouds, was amazing, and the sunset gradually sinking was the best. The stargazing afterward was also impressive, as it was only a few days past the new moon, allowing us to clearly see the Milky Way and satellites. I couldn't capture the night sky well with my own camera, but there was a service to download photos taken by the guide, which allowed me to feel moved again when I viewed them later.

Additionally, our guide, Tomo, helped us secure good spots by acting promptly and reminded participants to take deep breaths and move slowly, which allowed us to enjoy the experience without suffering from altitude sickness. The explanations included not only the scenery and stars but also various stories about life in Hawaii, making it a truly wonderful half-day experience. I look forward to visiting Hawaii again!

20年1月26日に本ツアーに参加しました。
出発時は雲がかかっていたものの、昇るにつれて山頂の雲は晴れ、良い天気に恵まれました。人生最高到達地点で見る景色は、雪山と青空と雲海のセットが素晴らしく、徐々に沈んで行く夕陽も最高でした。その後の星空観測も、新月から数日しか経っていなかった事も手伝い、天の川や人工衛星もくっきり見え、感動的でした。自分のカメラでは星空は上手く撮れませんでしたが、ガイドさんが撮影して下さった写真をダウンロード出来るサービスがあり、後日それを見る事で、改めて感動出来ました。
また、ガイドのトモさんが、早め早めの行動をする事で良い場所が取れたり、参加者には深呼吸やゆっくり動く事を何度も注意して下さったお陰で高山病になる事もなく楽しめました。説明も、景色や星の説明だけでなく、ハワイの生活についての色々な話しもして下さり、とても素晴らしい半日となりました。またハワイに行く時は宜しくお願いします！

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour was amazing! ✨ マウナケア山頂サンセット&星空観測ツアー最高✨

Reviewed by: YOKO

The road to the summit of Mauna Kea suddenly opened at the end of last year, giving us another chance to visit the summit. We never know when it might close again, so don't miss this opportunity! I absolutely recommend it!

The summit still has snow. What you see in the foreground is snow, and beyond that is the sea of clouds. The sun sinking into the sea of clouds at sunset is an indescribable experience. I felt the vastness of the Earth and its vitality. The guide takes wonderful sunset photos for you.

And then there's stargazing at the base of the mountain. Here too, the guide takes fantastic photos with the starry sky as the backdrop. They even show you the moon through a telescope, and you can see the craters clearly✨

The conversation is enjoyable, and the guide's photography skills are excellent. This was my second time participating, and each time the satisfaction is 200%.

The summit of Mauna Kea is a special sacred place for the locals. I highly recommend it to everyone!!

マウナケア山頂までの道路が昨年末に突然Openし、また山頂へ行けるチャンスをいただけました。いつまたCloseされてしまうか分からないです。このチャンスを逃さないように！絶対おすすめします！

雪が残る山頂。手前に見えるのは雪で、その奥が雲海です。雲海に沈んでいく太陽と夕陽。言葉では言い現せない感動です。地球の大きさと生命力を感じました。ガイドさんが素晴らしい夕陽の写真を撮って下さいます

そして山麓での星空観測。ここでもまたガイドさんが星空をバックにステキな写真を撮って下さいます。望遠鏡で月も見せてくれ、クレーターまでハッキリクッキリ見えます✨

トークも楽しいですし、カメラ技術が素晴らしいガイドさんでした。2回目の参加でしたが、毎回満足感は200%です

マウナケア山頂は、現地の方にとって特別な聖霊な場所。是非皆さんにおすすめします！！

On January 29, my spouse and I participated in the Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour. It was our first time on the Big Island, and Mauna Kea was a place we definitely wanted to visit. The tour started with a pickup at 1:45 PM from our accommodation at Kings Land! Our guide, Masa, was kind and explained everything thoroughly, which made us feel at ease during the tour. The warm miso soup and bento we had at the Onizuka Center were very delicious. The choice of music to prevent drowsiness during the altitude sickness measures was excellent! We were energized and had no drowsiness as we reached the summit! We were blessed with good weather, and the sunset from the top was incredibly romantic, allowing us to truly feel the grandeur of the Big Island! The starry sky, which felt like we could reach out and touch it, was beautiful and left us in awe. Masa's explanations about the stars opened up a world we had never known before, doubling our excitement! The photo service provided by our guide captured moments we couldn't have taken ourselves, and we got many shots in our desired poses. Downloading those photos brought us even more joy! This tour to Mauna Kea is highly recommended!

The best tour that moves both adults and children. 大人でも子供でも感動する最高のツアー

Reviewed by: AYK

We participated as a couple on January 19th. Our guide, Jin, was very friendly and knowledgeable. After being picked up from the hotel, we took a break and had dinner around 4:00 PM at the foot of the mountain (outdoors). The weather was relatively nice, but it felt a bit cold at that point.

The road to the summit was not well maintained, and the car shook quite a bit. It’s better to take motion sickness medication beforehand. After arriving at the summit, we took photos while watching the sunset. I participated wearing Heattech, a T-shirt, a windbreaker, and long pants, and I borrowed a down jacket and pants, which made the temperature feel just right. However, my feet got quite cold. I only wore one pair of socks, and my toes started to hurt. I regretted not wearing two pairs of socks... (Having foot warmers would have been even better.)

Around 7 PM, we did some stargazing. The night sky was overwhelmingly beautiful compared to what I’ve seen in Japan. The explanations about the stars were very detailed, and even as adults, we were satisfied with the content. After that, we descended and were taken back to the hotel after 10 PM. It was a wonderful tour that allowed us to learn more about Hawaii.

1/19夫婦で参加しました。
アテンドしてくれる仁さんはとってもフレンドリーで物知りな素敵な方でした。
ホテルピックアップ後に休憩を挟み、１６：００頃に山の麓（屋外）での夕食を取りました。比較的良いお天気でしたがこの時点で少し寒さを感じました。
その後、山頂までの道は補装されておらずかなり車が揺れます。
酔い止めは飲んで行った方がベターです。
山頂に到着後はサンセットを見ながら撮影しました。
当方、ヒートテック・Tシャツ・ウィンドブレーカー・長ズボン１枚で参加し、ダウン・ズボンをお借りし体感温度は丁度良かったです。
しかし、足元がかなり冷えます。靴下１枚だけしか履いておらず指先が痛くなりました。靴下２枚履いてくれば良かった。。。と反省。（足元カイロがあれば尚よしと言った感じです）
そして１９時頃天体観測をしました。
日本で見る星空よりも圧倒的な綺麗さでした。
かなり詳しく星の説明をしてくださり、大人の私達でも満足できるような内容でした。
その後下山し２２時過ぎにホテルへ送っていただきました。
ハワイの事をより知れた素敵なツアーでした。

The best starry sky I’ve ever seen in a perfect environment! 最高の環境で見れた星空！

Reviewed by: あっき

From the hotel pickup, we took a break for altitude acclimatization twice, and everyone in the car was in perfect condition. The explanations about the Big Island during the journey included basic information as well as insights that only locals would know, which broadened our perspective for the rest of the itinerary and made it interesting. The lunch at the Onizuka Visitor Center was described as "normal taste for those coming from Japan," but I actually thought it was tastier than the bento I bought yesterday! The highlight was that there was almost no wind, and under the new moon, we got to see an incredibly bright starry sky that exceeded our expectations! If I have the chance to go to the Big Island again, I would definitely want to join this tour once more.

ホテルのお迎えから、二回の高地順応を兼ねての休憩を入れてもらい、車中のメンバー全員が体調万全で行くことができました。
道中のハワイ島の説明も基本情報から、地元の方達しかしらない情報まで話してくださり、ツアー後の日程でも見る視点が広がり面白かったです。
オニツカビジターセンターでのお弁当も「日本からこられた方には普通～の味ですが・・・」と言われてましたが、逆に(昨日、購入したお弁当より美味しいなｗ)と思える味！
一番は風もほとんどなく、新月の中で、想像以上の明るい星空を見れて最高でした！またハワイ島に行くことがあれば、もう一度行きたいと思うツアーでした。

The sunset was breathtaking, and the starry sky was perfect☆彡 It became the best memory!!! 感動のサンセット・満点の星空☆彡最高の思い出になりました！！！

Reviewed by: はしも

My first trip to the Big Island was with my husband, and since we rented a car, we initially thought about going on our own, but I'm so glad we chose a tour instead!!

There are many unpaved roads leading to the summit, making it dangerous for regular passenger cars (it seems the rental car insurance doesn't cover it...), and vehicle access is restricted, so the time to leisurely watch the starry sky is limited to the tour only.

So, we went on the tour with about 10 other people, and our guide, Tomo, was very entertaining and informative! We also had a great time with everyone else, making it a wonderful memory for us, who usually travel just the two of us!

At the summit, we were able to witness a breathtaking sunset, and after the sun went down, the sky was filled with an incredible number of stars!! The explanations about the stars were also very interesting, and I think I’ll start studying astronomy from now on!!

What I especially appreciated about this tour was that the photos taken with a professional DSLR camera are available for free download!!! They took beautiful pictures of the starry sky and sunset that you can't capture with an iPhone, in various locations! It became a great memory!

Also, they provide warm clothing, so it doesn't add to your luggage! The summit is very cold, and it was a relief to borrow a proper down jacket and pants!

I highly recommend this tour when visiting the Big Island!!!

初めてのハワイ島旅行は主人とレンタカーを借りていたので、当初は自分たちで行こうかと思っていたのですが、ツアーにして本当に良かったです！！

山頂までは舗装されていない道が多い為通常の乗用車では危険(レンタカーの保険に適用されないそう・・・)、かつ車両を規制されているそうで、星空をのんびり見る時間はツアーのみに限られているそうです。

そんなわけで約10名の皆様でツアーを回ったのですが、スタッフのともさんのお話はとても面白く情報量も豊か！そして一緒に回った皆様とも楽しく過ごせ、2人だけで旅行してきた私たちにとても素敵な思い出となりました！

山頂では感動のサンセットを見ることが出来、日が沈んでからは圧巻の満点の星空！！こちらも星の解説がとても面白く、これからは星を勉強してみようと思います！！

特にこのツアーでありがたかったのは、
本格的な一眼カメラで撮影して頂いた写真がなんと無料でダウンロードできる点！！！iPhone では撮れない素敵な星空や夕焼けの写真を、いろんなところで撮影してくれます！いい思い出になりました！

そして防寒具を貸して頂けるので荷物にならない！
山頂はとても寒く、本格的なダウンとパンツをお借りでき助かります！


ハワイ島に行く際には是非おすすめのツアーです！！！

A long-awaited tour with my husband, who has extensive experience in astrophotography, during the new moon! We’re well-prepared for the cold. Thanks to the down jacket and gloves provided by Jin, I have no worries! The bento was traditional Japanese food, a nostalgic taste! The conversations in the car and the explanations about the starry sky were enjoyable and educational! The long journey was comfortable, and the views we experienced were beyond imagination—the blue hue of the Earth's shadow after the sunset, and the service of taking a two-shot against the starry sky created wonderful memories. I want to go see the summer Milky Way again! My dream came true, and I thoroughly enjoyed the beauty of Hawaii. I was introduced to a kind, energetic, and great travel experience.

Reviewed by: ありさ

On January 22nd, the second day of our trip to Hawaii Island, my husband and I participated in the Mauna Kea summit and stargazing tour.

We were picked up in front of our hotel at 2:15 PM. During the drive to Mauna Kea, we learned a lot about Hawaii Island.

We took several breaks along the way and had an early meal around 4 PM. It was a relaxing experience to enjoy Japanese food after a long time, including rice, simmered dishes, and fried fish, as we headed towards the summit.

We were advised that deep breathing and staying hydrated are effective for preventing altitude sickness. Thanks to this, we were able to reach the summit without feeling unwell! We were blessed with good weather, and at the summit, we were able to see a beautiful sunset, making it an unforgettable experience. The photos taken by the staff were wonderful, and I could really feel their professionalism.

Additionally, my husband and I were honestly unsure whether to go to the summit or the foothills due to concerns about altitude sickness, but we were glad we chose the summit.

We began stargazing around 7:00 PM. Although we were lent jackets, it was quite cold, so anyone heading to the summit should definitely bring warm outerwear. We were satisfied to see a sky full of stars that we can't see in Japan. The staff's guidance was very detailed and informative.

Overall, thanks to the staff's thoughtful care, we were able to create the best memories of Hawaii Island without any worries. Thank you very much.

1月22日ハワイ島旅行2日目で、私たち夫婦はマウナケア山頂&星空観測に参加しました。

また、私たち夫婦は、高山病が心配でマウナケア山頂か山麗どちらにするか、正直迷っていましたが、山頂にしてよかったです。

An unexpected snowy landscape and a breathtaking starry sky! まさかの雪景色と星空の絶景！

Climbing a mountain over 4000 meters for the first time made me anxious, especially since I had heard that the conditions at the summit can be very harsh. However, thanks to the attentive care of our guide, everyone was able to participate without any health issues. I truly felt reassured going with a guide who knows the mountains so well. Unfortunately, due to bad weather, we couldn't see the sunset from the summit, but we were able to enjoy a breathtaking view of the sunset a little lower down, which also gave us a chance to experience the power of nature. It seems that a snowy Mauna Kea is quite rare, so perhaps we were lucky in that regard. The starry sky was like a natural planetarium, and with the interesting explanations of the constellations, I could have gazed at it forever without getting bored. It became a memorable sight. Thank you to everyone at the nature school!

初めて4000m超の山に登ること、山の上はとても過酷な環境と聞いていたこともあり、不安がありましたが、ガイドの方のきめ細やかな心配りのお陰で、誰も体調を崩すことなく、参加することができました。やはり、山のことを知り尽くしているガイドさんと行くのが安心だなぁと思いました。残念ながら今回は悪天候のため、頂上では夕陽は見られませんでしたが、少し降りたところで夕焼けの絶景を見られましたし、自然の威力を体感する機会にもなりました。雪景色のマウナケア山はとても珍しいそうなので、逆にラッキーだったのかもしれません。星空はまさに天然のプラネタリウムで、面白い星座解説と共に、いつまで眺めていても飽きることがなく、思い出に残る風景となりました。ネイチャースクールの皆さま、ありがとうございました！

Seeing snow in Hawaii is truly a surprising experience! ハワイで雪が見られるなんて本当に驚きの体験！

Reviewed by: おとさん

The guide picked us up in the order of Kona → Waikoloa → Hapuna Beach, and since we were staying in Waikoloa, our meeting time was 1:45 PM. We arrived early at Hapuna Beach, so we spontaneously decided to go whale watching from the shore. We were able to see the whales spouting from a distance. Without the guide's assistance, we definitely wouldn't have noticed them. Even with the last-minute change, they were impressive.

After all 13 participants gathered, we set off for Mauna Kea Park. We were told that it was okay to sleep during the first half since we needed to stay awake for altitude sickness prevention later, but thanks to the lively conversation, I was too excited to sleep at all in the car. We arrived at Mauna Kea Park at 3:30 PM. It was at an elevation of 2,000 meters, and Mauna Kea towered high above us. The temperature had dropped, and it was a bit chilly.

After a restroom break, we set off again and arrived at the Onizuka Visitor Center at an elevation of 2,800 meters around 4 PM. Here, we had an early lunch and another restroom break. The lunch consisted of a traditional Japanese bento with fried fish and karaage, and even though we had just eaten, we finished it all. The warm miso soup was delicious. As it gets colder as we ascend, I borrowed ski pants to complete my gear (it seems they make it hard to breathe at high altitudes). Normally, they stay for about an hour, but due to the rare good weather and snow at the summit, many people were heading up, so we departed after 4:30 PM to secure a spot for the sunset. By the way, snow at the summit is usually only present until January or February, and during that time, the weather can be unpredictable, making it difficult to reach the summit, which is why a guide who was off-duty also visited that day.

After leaving the Onizuka Visitor Center, we drove on a steep gravel road. Switching to four-wheel drive, the vehicle moved steadily forward. It would be impossible to reach this place by rental car on your own. As we continued, the vegetation gradually disappeared, the clouds came into view below us, and I felt as if the sun was getting closer.

We got out of the car at 3,800 meters, above the height of Mount Fuji. The first thing that caught our eyes was a vast expanse of snow. It felt surreal to have been at a hot beach in the morning and now be in a silver world. There was even a snowman that had arrived before us, and all the participants were thrilled. We rushed over to the snow, but being at high altitude, I quickly became out of breath and felt dizzy. I had to take deep breaths and try to move slowly. That said, there were some foreigners snowboarding and taking pictures in swimsuits...

After a while, we finally headed to the summit. Many people had already arrived at the top, but we managed to secure a position to view the sunset. It was quite cold, so I borrowed a ski jacket and gloves and put on the neck warmer I had brought. Until sunset, the guide took various photos for us.

Then came the sunset. Before the sun went down, the entire area was bathed in orange, and after it set, the sky transformed into a gradient of orange, green, and blue—a sight that words cannot describe. I felt it was a scene I would never see again, and I made sure to imprint it in my memory.

After the sunset, we had to descend from the summit, so we drove down to 3,500 meters for stargazing. Even after sunset, it was still bright for a while, and we could only see Venus. As night deepened, we began to see the first magnitude stars in order. After that, we were able to observe stars and the Milky Way that we could never see in the city. The guide was knowledgeable about constellations and explained them clearly. We took commemorative photos with the Milky Way and Orion in the background, and the stargazing session came to an end.

On the way back, we stopped at Mauna Kea Park for a restroom break and to collect our cold-weather gear. They dropped us off at our hotel, and we arri

ガイドさんがコナ→ワイコロア→ハプナビーチの順に迎えに来てくださって、ワイコロアに宿泊していた私たちは13時45分の集合でした。
ハプナビーチに早く到着したため、急遽陸からホエールウォッチングをすることに。遠めからですが、クジラの潮吹きを見ることができました。ガイドさんの案内なしだったら絶対に気づきませんでした。急遽な対応でもさすがです。

その後、参加者13名全員揃って、まずはマウナケアパークに向けて出発。
後半は高山病対策のため起きている必要はあるので前半は寝ていても構わないとのことでしたが、軽快なトークのおかげでまったく寝ることはなく車の中でワクワクしていました。
マウナケアパークには15時30分に到着。ここは標高2,000mでマウナケアが高くそびえ立っていました。気温も下がっていて若干ひんやり。

トイレ休憩後、再度出発し16時過ぎに標高2,800mのオニヅカビジターセンターへ到着。
ここでは少し早めのお弁当とトイレ休憩。お弁当は日本人が作った魚のフライ、唐揚げなどが入っているザ・日本のお弁当。お昼とったばかりなのに完食でした。温かいお味噌汁も美味しかったです。山頂に行くにつれて寒くなるため、スキー用のズボンを貸してもらい装備完了（高地で履くと息があがってしまうらしいです）。
通常は1時間くらい滞在するらしいのですが、この日は久しぶりの好天&山頂に雪があるということで山頂に向かう人が多くサンセットの場所確保のために16時30分すぎに出発しました。
ちなみに山頂に雪があるのは1月、2月くらいまでで、かつその時期は天候不順で山頂に登れないことも多いらしいので、この日は非番のガイドさんもプライベートで訪れていました。

オニヅカビジターセンターを出た後は、急角度の砂利道。四駆に切り替えて車はグングンと進んでいきます。レンタカーで自力で向かうのは絶対無理です。。
その後もグイグイ進み、次第に植物の姿が見えなくなり、雲も下に見るようになり、心なしか太陽も近くに感じるようになりました。

そして富士山越えの3,800mで下車。
日本のすばるを含め各国の天文台よりも先に目に入ってきたのは一面の雪景色。午前中は暑いビーチにいたのが嘘のような銀世界でした。
先に到着した雪ダルマもあり、参加者全員が大興奮。思わず雪のもとへと駆け寄りましたが、そこは高地。あっという間に息が切れて頭がクラクラしてきました。深呼吸してなるべく体をゆっくり動かさないといけないです。といいながら、スノボしたり水着で記念撮影している外国の方もいましたが、、、

しばらくしてから、ついに山頂へ向かいます。
すでに山頂は多くの人が到着していましたが、なんとか夕陽の見えるポジションを確保できました。かなり寒いのでスキー用の上着と手袋を借り、持ってきたネックウォーマーを装着。
日没まではガイドさんが色んな写真を撮ってくれました。

そしてサンセット。日が沈む前はあたり一面がオレンジ色に染まり、日が沈んだあとはオレンジと緑と青のグラデーションで言葉で説明できない光景でした。二度と見れない光景と思い、じっくりと目に焼きつけました。

サンセット後は山頂から降りないといけないため、3,500mまで車で下山して星空観察。
日没後もまだしばらく明るく、見えるのは金星くらい。夜が深くなってくるにつれ一等星から順に見えてきました。その後は都会では見ることができない星や天の川を観察することができました。
ガイドさんは星座のことも詳しく、分かりやすく説明してくれました。天の川やオリオン座をバックに記念撮影をして星空観察は終了。

帰りはマウナケアパークに立ち寄りトイレ休憩と防寒具の回収。ホテルまで送って下さり、22時前に到着しました。あっという間の8時間でした。

マウナケアの山頂に登れるようになったのは昨年末で、また3月には行けなくなるとのこと。ハワイ島に来たなら絶対に行くべきツアーだと思います。

It was snowing! 雪が降ってた！

Reviewed by: kayo

It was really great! I heard that the mountains were closed due to bad weather for about a week, so I was worried about the weather, but the sunset and stars were incredibly beautiful!

There was still snow on the mountain, and it seems that being able to enter the mountain in this condition is rare, making it a very valuable experience.

At the summit, it was snowing, and I couldn't see much of the observatory, but when I descended a bit, I was able to see a beautiful sunset.

After the sun went down, many stars came out, and the explanation about the stars was interesting. I was able to see many more stars than I could from the hotel. I'm glad I joined the tour!

I was worried about restrooms and altitude sickness, but there were breaks about once an hour, and they took measures against altitude sickness, which was reassuring.

I thought it was strange to need warm clothing in Hawaii, but I realized that the warm clothing provided with the tour is essential. If you're not good with the cold, hand warmers and other cold weather measures are a must.

I brought my camera thinking I might take some photos of the stars, but I regretted not properly preparing and bringing a tripod.

Next time I participate, I will make sure to prepare my camera properly.

Thank you to the guides. I had a lot of fun. The choice of music in the car was excellent!

すごく良かったです！
1週間ほど悪天候で山がcloseと聞いて天候が不安でしたが、サンセットも星もすごく綺麗に見えました！

山には雪が残っていて、この状態で山に入れるのは珍しいことらしく、とっても貴重な体験でした。

山頂はふぶいていて、天文台はあまり見ることができませんでしたが、少し降りると綺麗なサンセットが見れました。

日が暮れたあと、星もいっぱい出て、星の説明も面白かったです。
ホテルで見るよりすごくたくさんの星を見ることができました。
ツアーに参加して良かったです！

お手洗いや高山病を心配していましたが、１時間に1回ほど休憩があり、高山病対策もしてくださるので安心でした。

ハワイで防寒着なんてと思っていましたが、ツアーに付いている防寒着必須だなと思いました。
寒いのが苦手ならカイロとか防寒対策必須です。

星の写真を撮れたなら〜ぐらいでカメラを持って行ったのですが、ちゃんと事前準備と三脚を用意しておけば良かったと、反省。

次回参加するときはちゃんとカメラを準備しよーと思います。

ガイドの方々、ありがとうございました。
とても楽しかったです。
車内の曲のチョイス最高でした☆

Mauna Kea Evening Stargazing & Daytime Solar Viewing Tour with Dinner

Great experience

Reviewed by: Guilietta Kim

It was very impressive that a tour guide has shared a lot of stories about cultures of Hawai'i during the entire tour program. The courses were absolutely nice. The view of a coffee farm was so beautiful and the dinner was much nicer than I expected. When it comes to stargazing tour, the tour guide moved the spot for better sightseeing and it was brilliant. Even though I am not a native speaker, I fully enjoyed this tour program and I highly recommend this one to everyone.

Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation

Gratitude and respect! Blessed to have been able to experience sunset on Mauna Kea and the beauty of our night sky!

Reviewed by: Hoomaikaiana

This was truly a ‘bucket list’ experience.
Our guide Travis shared his encyclopedic knowledge of the mountain and the importance to the Hawai’ian people. The history of the observatories and their research potential was enlightening. Our other guide, Jim knew more about constellations and the night sky than many astronomers. His ability to discuss the constellations from both a euro-centric and Polynesian perspective was novel!

A truly magnificent (although really really cold) adventure.

The hooded jackets and gloves are great - but bring two layers for your both your lower body and upper body as well as warm socks/shoes.

It was the best night view! 最高の夜景でした！

Reviewed by: はらはら

My first time on the Big Island. When I think of the Big Island, I think of the night views and stargazing at Mauna Kea, so I decided to join the tour.

The actual tour was truly fulfilling, and the scenery at Mauna Kea as it transitioned from sunset to night was amazing. Additionally, the guide took a lot of photos, creating wonderful memories.

To prevent altitude sickness, we were encouraged to drink water during the bus ride, and music was played to help keep us awake, which showed great consideration.

I would definitely recommend this to everyone!

はじめてのハワイ島。ハワイ島といえば、マウナケア山での夜景や星空観測だと思っていたので参加しました。
実際のツアーは本当に充実していて、夕焼け時から夜にかわるマウナケアでの景色が素晴らしかったです。また、ガイドさんが写真をたくさん撮ってくれ、とても良い思い出ができました＾＾
高山病にならないように、バスでの移動中に水を飲んだり眠らないようにするために音楽をかけていただいたりと、とても気づかいの感じられるツアーでした！
皆さんにおススメできると思います！

Although we ended up stargazing at an alternative location, we were able to enjoy it thoroughly. I hope to gaze at the stars from the summit of Mauna Kea again someday...

Also, the guide's explanations were very clear, and I was particularly impressed by their comment that "constellations are imagination."

代替地での星空観測になりましたが、充分に楽しむことができました。
いつかまた、マウナケア山頂から星空を眺めることができますように。。。

あと、ガイドの方の説明がとても解かりやすく、「星座は想像力」と話されていたのが印象に残っています。

The new moon was clear, and the starry sky was amazing. I was moved. The staff were friendly, and I was able to enjoy the tour without feeling awkward. The explanations of the night sky using a laser pointer were also easy to understand. However, being on a mountain over 4,000 meters high was indeed tiring.

A wonderful sunset and a starry sky in the whole sky. 素晴らしい夕日とStarry sky in the whole sky

Reviewed by: ながちゃん

Due to the closure of the summit of Mauna Kea, I was shocked to find that the sunset viewing at the summit was canceled. However, the beautiful sunset and stargazing at around 2000 meters elevation were amazing. First, before the sunset viewing, our guide, Mr. Ishikawa, asked if we had a preferred spot, and he took us to the Aura Cave, a power spot, where we felt energized. Next, we visited Puukohola Heiau National Historic Site, a place that is not easily accessible on your own. For the sunset, Mr. Ishikawa took us to his hidden spot. To our surprise, six turtles welcomed us before the sunset. With just four of us on the tour and six turtles, it was incredible. We received good luck from the turtles and then proceeded to stargaze.

It was wonderful. The sky was filled with stars, without a single cloud. I've never seen so many stars; the Milky Way was clearly visible, and I could have looked at the sky all night long. I believe this is definitely worth seeing. If I have the opportunity, I would love to go again.

マウナケア山頂閉鎖によるツアー変更により、マウナケア山頂での夕陽観賞が無くなりショックと思いきや、素晴らしい夕日と 標高2000m付近で星空観測は最高でした。まず、夕日鑑賞の前に、ガイドさんの石川さんがご希望の場所が有りますかのの質問があり、パワースポットのオーラの洞窟に連れて行って頂き、パワーを充満しました。次にプウコホラ・ヘイアウ国立歴史公園に行きました。なかなか個人では行けない場所です。サンセットの為に、石川さんの隠れポイントに連れて行って頂きました。なんと夕日が沈む前にカメさん６匹が我々を出迎えてくれました。ツアー４名にカメさん６匹で他には誰もいません。最高ですね。カメさん６匹の幸運をもらい星空観測です。
素晴らしかったです。雲一つなく満天の星空でした。これほどの星の数見たことがありません、天の川もはっきり見えます、ずーと一晩中でも空を見ていられます。これは見る価値があると思います。
機会があれば、ぜひまた行きたいです。

It was almost a full moon and bright, and the starry sky was not great, but overall I was very satisfied. ほぼ満月で明るく、星空はいまいちでしたが全体的に大満足です。

Reviewed by: fuji

- I was really impressed by the attention to detail in various places; it was very thoughtful. I highly recommend this tour.
- The bento that came with the tour was delicious and completely different from those offered in other optional tours (which are often inedible). I mistakenly thought the provided bento would be unappetizing and ate beforehand, which was a waste.
- I participated in July and had heard it would be cold at the summit, so I prepared a down vest, earmuffs, and gloves. However, just layering the down jacket and long pants provided by the tour was sufficient.
- This time, it was a full moon, so the starry sky wasn't that great. I would like to participate again during a new moon.

・色んなところに細かな気配りがされていて、すごく気が利いてると感心しました。すごくお勧めできるツアーです。
・ツアーに付いてくるお弁当も他所のオプショナルツアーのそれ（食べれる代物で無い）とは違い普通に美味しく食べれる弁当でした。
（提供される弁当は、まともに食べれないと予想し直前に食べてきてしまい失敗。無駄でした。）
・7月の参加でしたが頂上は寒いと聞いていたので、ダウンベスト、耳当て、手袋を準備して行きましたが、ツアーで準備されているダウンジャケット、長ズボンを重ね着するだけで十分でした。
・今回は満月で明るく星空はいまいちでしたので、また新月の時に参加したいと思っています。

The sunset was amazing! I love traveling to various places and watching sunrises and sunsets, but this was the BEST sunset. I don't think there will be a sunset that surpasses this one. The experienced staff took beautiful photos, and I really appreciate that they are available for download.

As for stargazing, since it was a full moon the next day, there may not have been a lot of stars visible. If I go again, I would like to choose a time around the new moon or when the moon is not out. They provided a lot of explanations about the constellations while observing Jupiter, Saturn, and the moon through a telescope.

夕日が最高でした！
色んな所旅行して、朝日と夕日を見るのが好きですが、BEST OF 夕日です。
たぶんこれを超える夕日は無いかと。
経験豊富なスタッフさんがキレイな写真を撮影して下さり、
ダウンロード可能なのも非常にありがたいです。

星空観察に関して言うと、翌日満月だったこともあり、星が沢山って訳ではなかったかもしれません。次回行くなら新月の時期か、その時間帯に月が出ていない時期を選びたいです。望遠鏡で木星、土星、月を観察して星座の説明もたくさんして下さりました。

Reviewed by: ちーやん

Four years ago, I participated in the same course tour with another company, and this was my second Mauna Kea tour. The tour guide's explanations were very interesting and informative. During lunch, there was a service of warm miso soup and hot drinks. At the summit of Mauna Kea, they took many photos of each group during the stargazing session. Moreover, they upload those photos to their website, so you can download them later. I think this is especially a nice service for solo travelers who can't take their own pictures. I used to think there wasn't much difference between companies, but I realized this time that there is a significant difference. If I have the chance next time, I would definitely like to request this tour again.

４年前に別の会社で同じコースのツアーに参加して、今回が２回目のマウナケアツアーでした。
ツアーガイドの方の説明がとても面白くて、しかもためになりました。
お弁当の時には温かい味噌汁と温かいドリンクのサービスがありました。
マウナケア山頂でも星空観測の時にもグループごとに何枚も写真を撮ってくださいました。しかもその写真をホームページにアップしてくれるので、あとからダウンロードできます。一人旅の時には自分の写真が取れないので特にうれしいサービスだと思います。
どこの会社で行っても、大差はないと思っていましたが、大きく違うことに今回気が付きました。
次回、チャンスがあれば、また是非お願いしたいと思います。

The tour itself was incredibly exciting. However, personally, I almost experienced altitude sickness.
