Sunset from a mountain higher than Mount Fuji. Stargazing at the Subaru Telescope. It can't be bad. 富士山より高い山からSUNSET。スバル天文台に星空観察。悪いはずがない。

Reviewed by: 天ん邪鬼

Two days ago, there was a road closure above the Onizuka Visitor Center due to snow at the summit of Mauna Kea, which made me a bit anxious, but the tour went ahead without any issues. The driver was surprisingly quiet. I wondered if he was in a bad mood, but after about an hour of driving, we arrived at the Onizuka Visitor Center. We had a bento lunch with warm miso soup. There were also warm coffee, tea, and even cocoa prepared for us. This was the time for altitude acclimatization. We bought souvenirs and took photos. From there, we drove on a rough road close to the summit. I didn't feel sick at all. The driver kept teaching us how to breathe properly. He even stopped the car at a spot with remaining snow for a photo opportunity. He took our pictures with the Subaru Telescope in the background during sunset. After that, we descended to around 3000 meters. There were two teams from the same tour company for stargazing, intentionally on a full moon night. It was too bright, so there were fewer stars, but we were able to observe Saturn and the moon. Our driver seemed like a technician and took photos of us with the starry sky as the backdrop. Those photos can be downloaded for free after returning to Japan. Just remember, it’s really cold, so dress warmly. They provide warm shoes, socks, and outerwear, which is great. I wore Heattech. As for the restroom, there is a simple toilet at the summit, but it seems to be quite a challenge to use it while wearing winter clothing. It didn't seem dirty, though. It takes about four hours from leaving the visitor center to the next restroom break. The simple toilet is about two hours in, roughly halfway. Just for your reference.

前々日、マウナケア山頂積雪の為、オニヅカビジターセンターより上の通行止めの情報があり、ドキドキしていましたが、無事に催行。ドライバーさん　以外に無口。機嫌悪いのかな？と一時間余りドライブしてオニヅカビジターセンターに到着。そしてお弁当。暖かいお味噌汁付き。暖かいコヒー、紅茶にココアまで用意されていました。この場所で高度順応の時間。お土産を購入したり、写真を撮ったり。そこから頂上付近まで悪路ドライブ。気分が悪くなるなんて無かったです。ドライバーさんが、ずっと呼吸の仕方を伝授してくれます。残雪が残っている所でわざわざ車を停めて撮影タイム。ドライバーさんもシャッターを押してくださいました。スバル天文台をバックにサンセット。そこから3000メーター辺りまで下って。同じツアー会社2チームでの星空観察。敢えて、満月の夜。明るすぎて　星は少なかったけど、土星や月の観測ができました。うちのドライバーさんは技術屋さんみたいで、星空をバックに写真も撮ってくれました。それらの写真は日本に帰ってから無料でダウンロードできますよ。ただ、ともかく寒いから暖かくしてくださいね。特に靴、靴下　防寒着の上下は貸してくれて暖かいですが。私はヒートテックで行きました。それと、トイレですが頂上に簡易トイレは有りますが、防寒着を着たままようを足すのも一苦労みたいです。汚くは無かったみたいです。ビジターセンターを出発してから次のトイレ休憩まで4時間くらいかかります。簡易トイレは丁度、2時間、中間くらいです。参考までに。

Reviewed by: Emo

Advance reservations are essential due to the popularity of the tour. The weather on the day is truly left to chance. On the day of participation, which was three days after the full moon, we were able to see an incredibly beautiful starry sky since the stargazing time was before the moon rose! They also provide explanations of constellations with a laser pointer (the impressive kind). It's like a real planetarium. You can also take photos (available for free download later), so there's more to enjoy after the tour. The sunset is also perfect! The sunset over the sea of clouds is a must-see. The summit of Mauna Kea is quite cold. They can lend you warm clothing, but I recommend bringing something like a sweatshirt that you can easily put on.

Our guide, Masa, was kind and very attentive! Generally, the guides are Japanese (though there may be some from other countries). It feels a bit awkward to give a tip, but since we are in Hawaii, I recommend giving a little something during the hotel transfer. Just for your reference.

人気ツアーの為、事前予約必須。当日の天候は、本当に運任せ。汗。参加日は、満月の3日後でしたが、星空観測の時間が月の登る前であった為、めちゃくちゃキレイな星空が観れました！レーザーポインター(すごいやつ)で星座の説明もしてくれます。リアルプラネタリウムです。写真撮影(後日、無料ダウンロード可)もしていただけるので、ツアー後にも楽しみがあります。サンセットもバッチリ！雲海に沈む夕陽は、必見です。マウナケア山頂は、ふつーに寒いです。防寒着を貸していただけますが、サクッと着れるスウェット等の持参をオススメします。
ガイドのマサさんは、親切丁寧で非常に良かったです！基本的には、ガイドさんは日本人(外国籍の方もいる)の方になるかと思います。チップをお渡しするのに違和感がありますが、ハワイであることは間違いないので、ホテルへの送迎時に気持ちをお渡しすることをオススメします。ご参考までに。

Reviewed by: さささ

The sunset and starry sky were, of course, wonderful, but the explanations from our guide Masa were easy to understand and very knowledgeable! It was informative to hear about the history and stars.

They provide winter clothing, lunch boxes, and drinks, so you can participate easily, which I highly recommend!

The best part is that you can download the photos taken by the guide with a DSLR for free! The pictures with the starry sky background are perfect.

The price might be high, but the experience was worth it.

夕日、星空がすばらしいのはもちろんですが、ガイドのマサさんの説明がわかりやすく、また博識でした！歴史や星の説明を聞けるので、ためになりました。
防寒具、お弁当、飲み物の用意があるので、気軽に参加できますので、おすすめです！
一番のおすすめポイントは、ガイドさんが撮ってくれた一眼レフの写真の無料ダウンロードが可能なところです！星空バックの写真もばっちりです。
料金は高いかもしれませんが、それ以上の体験ができました。

It would be great if the weather is nice. 天気が良ければ最高

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Since I joined the tour in November, I was able to participate even though it had snowed the day before and the mountain gate was closed until just before the tour started. I was thrilled that the tour guide was the famous Big Jin. We joined from Kona and stopped at a scenic overlook on the way to Waikoloa to take some photos. On Saddle Road, we also had a little time to enjoy a spot where we could take pictures with the lava, in addition to Mauna Kea and the starry sky. I was worried about altitude sickness, but thanks to the professional guide's instructions and advice, everyone was fine. The tour itself had two vehicles, but Jin's proactive actions and experience meant we always arrived earlier than the other vehicle, allowing us more time and better timing for bathroom breaks. Although there were many clouds on the day, and it was disappointing not to see the sunset or the starry sky from the highest point, the tour itself was incredibly rich and provided a great experience.

11月に入ってからの参加でしたので当日もツアー開始時間ぎりぎり前まで前日に雪が降り山のゲートが封鎖されていたそうですが、参加することが出来ました。しかもツアーガイドが有名なビッグジンさんで感激しました。私達はコナからの参加でワイコロアまで行く途中Scenic Overlookと言う景色のいいポイントに停まって写真を撮ってくれました。サドルロードでも溶岩と写真の撮れるポイントで少し時間をくれてマウナケアや星空以外も少し楽しめました。高山病が不安でしたがプロのガイドの指示やアドバイスで全員かからなかったです。ツアー自体が2台の車だったのですがジンさんの早め早めの行動と経験で　もう1台の車より常に早く着き時間が多く取れたりトイレに行くタイミングなど気配りがとても良かったです。当日は雲が多く期待したサンセットが見れなかったり、星空ツアーが1番高い所で見れなかったのは残念でしたがツアー自体はものすごく濃く良い経験ができました。

The weather on the day was cloudy with occasional rain. There was also information that the conditions at the summit were not good. Despite the explanation that we might have to turn back without reaching the top, the tour set off. Everyone must have felt a sense of tension and unease. By the time we took a break for lunch at a park, we were still in a state of uncertainty, but we enjoyed a long-awaited Japanese bento and miso soup, which boosted our spirits threefold. After we set off again, we were even able to see a rainbow, and the mood in the vehicle reached its peak.

In the end, we were able to reach the summit. The view was absolutely stunning, and I was very satisfied. Surprisingly, the air didn't feel as thin as I expected, and even when an older man skipped, he wasn't out of breath.

Enjoy the great nature of Hawaii Island! ハワイ島の大自然を満喫‼︎

Reviewed by: うっちゃん

When I think of Hawaii, I usually have a strong image of the ocean, but after participating in this tour, I feel like I've learned about another side of Hawaii. We were able to gaze down at various astronomical facilities from above and witness a magnificent sunset amidst quite a chilly wind. It was also wonderful to enjoy the celestial show with explanations. I believe that such tours can be subject to the luck of the weather, and I thought that my husband and I might not be able to observe the stars since clouds were moving in from Hilo. However, thanks to our guide's extensive experience, the early movements proved to be effective. The guide had studied geography and volcanoes at university and also had a keen interest in plants, making the information shared on the bus very enjoyable to listen to. It seems that they were well-prepared for altitude sickness, as none of the participants felt unwell. I hope to join another tour at Masashi's Nature School with such a wonderful guide in the future.

私のなかでハワイというと海のイメージが強かったのですがこのツアーに参加してもうひとつのハワイを教えていただいたように思います。各国の天文施設を眼下に仰ぎ見てかなりの寒風の中、雄大な日の入りをみることができました。また解説付きで天体ショーが楽しめたのもとてもよかったです。おそらくこうしたツアーは天候による運不運があるとおもうのですが今回もヒロのほうから雲がうごいてきていたそうで私も主人も星の観測は無理かなと思っておりました。しかしガイドの方の豊富な経験のおかげで早め早めの移動が功を奏しました。ガイドの方は大学で地理や火山を勉強されたようですし、植物へのご関心もおありだったのでバスの中でのご案内も大変たのしく聴くことができました。高山病への対処法も万全であった
のか参加メンバーどなたも具合悪くなることもありませんでした。またの機会にはこうした素晴らしいガイドさんのいるマサシのネイチャースクールで参加できればと思います。

Thanks to the warm clothing provided, I was able to withstand the cold at the summit. The sunset and twilight at the summit were truly magnificent. We were also able to take photos of the Subaru Telescope, which was one of our goals. The gradually expanding starry sky after dusk was unlike anything I had ever seen before. Our guide provided thorough explanations, and in the end, I was fortunate enough to see the Pleiades star cluster with the naked eye. It was an incredibly moving tour.

On the day of the event, it rained on and off, and unfortunately, we couldn't see the sunset from the summit. It was very cold at the top, and having a neck warmer was very helpful.

During the stargazing, the rain stopped, and we were able to see the Milky Way clearly. However, it was unfortunate that there were many clouds, and the stars quickly got hidden, so the guide was very busy moving us to different locations. Thank you very much.

If there is another opportunity, I would like to request the Masashi Nature School again.

It was raining at the Onizuka Visitor Center, but thanks to MASA's energy, by the time we reached the summit, the rain had stopped. We were able to take photos that made it look like we were flying in the sky with a broom against the backdrop of the sunset. The stargazing afterward was challenging due to the clouds, and we desperately searched for a spot where we could see the stars, ultimately finding the best position for stargazing that night. ISHIKAWA's explanations of the constellations were clear and very enjoyable. I want to go again during the new moon in June.

The guide maintained just the right distance. I enjoyed listening to the stories in the car. They even asked if we wanted to take photos. Our pickup time was 1:30 PM, and it took quite a while until the last participant was picked up, but we had time for restroom breaks at each hotel and to look around the hotels, which was nice. It felt like we were driving around the Big Island, and that was enjoyable too. I was worried about altitude sickness since it was my first time climbing a high mountain, but I followed the guide's instructions and made it back safely. The sunset was cloudy, so we couldn't see a beautiful sunset, but the light from the sun and the clouds created a magical landscape. I was so happy and moved to be here. The starry sky was not visible at the summit due to clouds, so we saw it a little lower down the mountain. It was incredibly beautiful and clear, as if the clouds had never been there. The number of stars was amazing! We could see the Milky Way clearly! I was so moved. We even took photos with the Milky Way in the background, and I truly felt it was worth coming here. 😊

ガイドの方は丁度いい距離感でした。車内のお話も聞いていて楽しかったです。写真撮りますか？と自らお声掛けして下さいます。私達のピックアップの時間が1時30分で最後の参加者の方のピックアップまで結構かかりましたが、ホテルごとにトイレ休憩やホテル内を見れる時間があったのと、ハワイ島をドライブしているようでそれも楽しかったです。初めて高い山に登ったので高山病が心配でしたがガイドさんの指示に従って無事帰ってこれました。サンセットは雲があり綺麗な夕陽は見れませんでしたが、太陽の光と雲で幻想的な風景が見れました。ここに来れたことが嬉しくて感動しました。星空は山頂の方は雲で見えませんでしたので少し山を下ったところで見ました。先程まで雲に覆われていたのが嘘のように綺麗で澄んだ星空が見えました。星の数がすごい！天の川も普通に見える！感動しました。天の川を背景に写真も撮っていただき、本当に来て良かったと思いました(^^)

We waited while eating our lunch, hoping that the weather would clear up and the road would be reopened, but in the end, it was not.

After that, we hurriedly searched for a good spot to see the sunset and drove the van. Thanks to that, we were able to enjoy a beautiful sunset and starry sky. The photos taken can be downloaded later.

Finally, we received a re-participation ticket valid for one year. It seems we need to apply directly on the website rather than through here, but I definitely want to challenge this again next year. Also, I was happy to meet BigJin, who helped us on a previous tour, after eight years.

お迎えの時にガイドさんから、降雪のため道路封鎖中、キャンセルも可とお話しいただきました。ピックアップの途中、キャンセルされる方も幾組あり。私たちは、これも何かの経験だと思い、そのままオニヅカセンターまで行きました。きれいに晴れてこのまま閉鎖が解除されるといいなとお弁当を食べながら待っていましたが、結局解除されず。
そのあと、サンセットを見るために、大急ぎできれいに見られる場所を探してバンを走らせました。おかげで美しいサンセットと星空を見ることができました。撮っていただいた写真はあとからダウンロードできます。
最後に、1年以内有効の再参加チケットをいただきました。こちらからではなく、直接サイトに申し込む必要があるそうですが、ぜひ、来年チャレンジしたいと思います。
あと、以前のツアーでお世話になったBigJinさんと8年ぶりにお会いできて、それがうれしかったです。

Mauna Kea Summit Sunrise & Stargazing Tour

Once-in-a-life kind of experience

Reviewed by: Shin Taniguchi

Many people say sunset is better than sunrise, but sunrise is great, too.
Even though we were on the tour about two days before the full-moon (meaning moonlight is very bright and moon doesn't set until about 5 in the morning), we could enjoy the gorgeous stars in the sky with decent explanation of the stars.
Sunrise was also gorgeous. It was no doubt one of the most beautiful scenaries I have ever seen in my life. Although we were lucky enough to see both stars and sunrise in good weather and it is said that we mostly see clear sky at the peak of Mauna Kea, you may have to keep in mind weather is always a variable you can never tell.

Our guides were good, with a lot of experience and knowledge, trying to do their best to make the tour enjoyable.

If you are okay to go to bed early on the day before and can wake up at 1:30 in the morning, it will let you spend your time more wisely because you have a whole day even after you come back from the tour. (we came back to the hotel around 8:30 am)

Also be noted that the temperature up there is very low. Especially because the weater in Hawaii is hot and you need to face the near-freezing-point weather on the same day, make sure to prepare warm clothes yourself. The ski jackets and pants they lend you will not be enough.

The staff at Masashi Nature School are the best. マサシネイチャースクールのスタッフは最高です。

Reviewed by: クマゴロウ

I wasn't able to see the moment the sun set, but the sunset was magical, and I experienced a little rain. I saw lightning in the clouds at my feet, which was a precious experience. The starry sky was amazing and became a lifelong memory. I left something in the car. I called the company the next day, and they immediately checked the car for me. They informed me that it would be picked up at my hotel the following day. The staff's efforts to entertain and their prompt problem-solving actions are truly commendable.

夕日が沈む瞬間は見ることができませんでしたが、夕焼けは幻想的で少ない雨も体験でき、足元の雲の中で稲光が光り、貴重な体験をいたしました。星空は最高で一生涯の思い出になりました。車に忘れ物をしてしまいました。翌日会社に電話をしましたが、すぐ車内を見てくださり、翌日滞在先のホテルでピックアップがあるとのことで届けてくださいました。スタッフの人を楽しませる努力と即問題解決に対応する行動は激賞に値します。

Full Moon Stargazing 満月の星見

Reviewed by: アントラーズの山さん

I knew it was a full moon season, but I definitely want to go during a dark moon phase next time. It's a shame I couldn't schedule it due to work commitments. The experience met my expectations. Good job!

時期的に、満月だということがわかっていましたが、次回はぜひ暗い月齢時に
行きたい。　　　なかなか業務上予定がとれなくて残念
内容は、期待どおりでした。　　　Ｇｏｏｄ　Ｊｏｂ

A starry sky that feels like it's falling. 降るような星空

Reviewed by: ちびママ

We participated as a family of four. On the day of the event, we couldn't see the sunset due to the clouds, but the stargazing after moving to a different location was wonderful. After sunset, the stars began to appear one by one, and in the end, we were treated to a sky full of stars and the Milky Way. I was able to see two shooting stars with my own eyes for the first time. They really do exist!

I was amazed that we could drive all the way up to the summit at 4,200 meters. It was a valuable experience to see Japan's Subaru Telescope and observatories from various countries.

Additionally, as an apology for the delay in the hotel pickup, we received a small bag of Kona coffee, which made me feel the sincerity of their proper Japanese hospitality. I would love to join guide Tyler again!

家族４人で参加しました。
当日は雲の影響で、夕陽は見れませんでしたが、場所を移動しての天体観測は素晴らしかったです。
日没後、少しずつ星が現れ始め、最後は降るような星空と、天の川になりました。
流れ星も2つ？、生まれて初めて肉眼で確認出来ました。本当にあったんですね。
4200メートルの頂上まで車で行けるのが凄いと思いました。日本の昴展望台や、各国の観測所も見る事が出来て、貴重な体験でした。
また、ホテルのPick upが遅れたお詫びに、コナコーヒーの小袋をいただき、きちんとした日本的な対応で誠意を感じました。
ガイドのタイラさん、またご一緒したいです!

I really wanted to see it. どうしても観たかった

Reviewed by: あやこ

The long-awaited starry sky of Hawaii Island.
With only five days until the full moon, I was worried about whether I would be able to see it properly, but I was able to see incredibly beautiful stars.
The moonlight was bright, and I thought it might have been even more beautiful with a new moon or with the starry sky and sunrise.
The explanations about the stars were easy to understand and simply moving.
Dinner also came with miso soup! It was really delicious.
The sunset was beautiful, and the explanations about the stars were great. Above all, they took a lot of photos and provided them for free download later! They were far more beautiful than what I could take myself, and the guide was very good at talking! It was the Ishikawa group, and it was so interesting and fun. Keita and Masa were incredibly enjoyable! If I go to Hawaii Island again, I will definitely participate!

念願のハワイ島の星空。
満月まであと5日だったので、ちゃんと観れるか不安でしたが、すっごく綺麗な星観れました。
月明かりが明るくて新月か、星空と朝日だったらもっと綺麗だったかなと思いました。
星の説明もわかりやすくただただ感動。
夕飯も味噌汁付き！すごく美味しかった。
夕日も綺麗だし、星の説明も、なにより写真をたくさん撮ってくれてあとから無料でダウンロード！自分で撮るよりはるかに綺麗だし、ガイドさんが話し上手！いしかわ号でしたが、もう面白くて楽しくて。けいたさんとまささん、めちゃめちゃ楽しかった！またハワイ島に行ったら絶対に参加します！
