They will pick you up at the hotel lobby around 2 PM.
It’s cold at the summit, but they provide warm clothing, so you don’t need to prepare anything special. They also lend gloves.
You will have your meal around 4 PM, but since I wasn't very hungry, I couldn't eat much. The miso soup was delicious.
After that, they will take photos at the observatory and other spots.
The sunset changes with the weather, so please pray for good weather that day!
As for stargazing, it was the day after the full moon, so the moon was quite bright, and I was told that the stars would quickly disappear, but I still enjoyed it thoroughly.
14時前後にホテルロビーに迎えに来てくれます。
山頂は寒いですが、上下の防寒具を貸してもらえるため、特にこちらでの対策は不要です。手袋も貸してくれます。
食事のお弁当が16時前後に食べることになりますが、お腹がすいていないこともあり、あまり食べられませんでした。味噌汁がおいしかったです。
その後、天文台などで写真を撮ってくれます。
サンセットは空模様で変わりますので、その日の天候を祈ってください笑
星空観測は満月の翌日だったこともあり、かなり月が明るく、星がすぐに消えてしまうよーと言われましたが十分にたのしめました。

One of the best trips we have been on. JEFF was excellent both in the way he described the Island, his humour and knowledge.
Overall this created a memory that will last a life time.
We should also say that this trip would never have existed without pele. It made us realise how much we owe to nature and how much we take it for granted.

Every time I go to the Big Island, I participate in stargazing, but this was my first time at Mauna Kea.
The sunset from above the sea of clouds...
This is truly breathtaking beauty!!
I'm really glad I participated!!
My worries felt so small. (laughs)
This is a must-do tour when you visit the Big Island!!
The guide's explanations about the stars were easy to understand too♪
The cocoa in the cold, as well as the bento, were even more delicious than I had imagined! (laughs)

The Kona area was rainy, and I was worried about whether we would be able to see the stars, but the summit was clear! The guide said it was a perfect sky, rated 150 points. I was also moved by the telescopes from various countries. I was concerned about altitude sickness, but as long as I took deep breaths frequently, I was fine. We received explanations about the stars, saw shooting stars, and it became an unforgettable experience. It's definitely worth going.

Our guide, Gordon, made sure the shuttle ride was comfortable and enjoyable. the stargazing and sunset views were amazing! It is well recommended to take this tour.
Lasagna was a bit salty for asian taste in my opinion. Browny, cookies and drinks were nice. Jumpers and gloves were provided but it was still cold, so it would be better if you brought more warm clothings.
One thing, i came on this tour with my wife (newly weds) but the seats were limited, so we had to sit separately :( it would be nice if there were seating plans or notice beforehand.
Nonetheless, i would take this tour again if I do ever come back to the big island!

I recommend this Sunrise tours especially to people who never conquers mountain peak higher then 3000 m.
Of course, I recommend it to everyone else, but for those who are for the first time on a higher elevation this is simply the must.
The flow of emotions I felt when I reached the peak was so overwhelming that I couldn't stop the tears.
It's almost impossible to express the feeling of inner fulfillment when you stand on the top of a high mountain watching the sunrise!
The Veltra crew did outstanding planning by set of small stops so our body can adapt to over 4000 m attitude.
First we stopped at 2000 to adapt to coldness of night and change in altitude. (They distributed parkas to all of us at that time)
Then we stopped at around 3000 m for unforgettable stargazing experience.
I saw shapes of Milky way, before but this was on completely different level.
I think the altitude of 3000 m makes substantial difference. There you don't have any light pollution but also the air is already thin enough to give you unforgettable experience of pure connection with the universe.
Then finally, just when you think that it can not get better then this, on the brink of dawn, we reached the summit and saw and felt unforgettable sunrise that will, at least in my case, stay forever in my memories.
I would like to use this opportunity to thank Veltra team and especially to our guide Stefan for allowing me to experience this unforgettable sunrise.
Sincerely.
Aloha,

We climbed the mountain in a full car under a cloudy sky with some fog. I was half giving up, thinking that we wouldn't be able to see the sunset or the starry sky. We were lent warm clothes, had lunch, and took some time to acclimatize before heading to the summit. At first, we couldn't see anything due to the fog, but around sunset, the fog cleared up nicely, and we were able to see the sunset, which was breathtaking. Initially, at the first observation point, we couldn't see the stars because of the fog, but at the next location, the beauty of the Milky Way and other sights overwhelmed us in no time. I applied online to receive the tour photos, but I'm a bit concerned as I haven't received a response yet.
曇り空、霧が出たりする中、満席の車で山を登り高度をあげて行きました。このままでは夕焼けも星空も見えないのかと半分こ諦めモード。
温かい服も貸して頂き、弁当を食べ、高度順応に時間を撮ってから山頂へ。最初はガスで見えませんでしたが、日没頃には上手くガスも切れて夕日を見ることが出来、美しさに圧倒されました。星空も最初のみ観測地ではガスがお贈り見えませんでしたが、移動した次の地点では天の川等美しさに、これまたあっという間されました。ツアーの写真頂けるとのことでネットでしていいどおり申し込みましたが、今の所返事なしの点が気になってはおりますが。

My friend and I went on the stargazing and sunrise tour to the Summit of Mauna Kea yesterday. Todd was our tour guide and extremely personable. He was also a wealth of knowledge on constellations, and local landscape. The stargazing was outstanding, we saw satellites, shooting stars, and a ton of constellations not visible usually at home. The summit was breathtaking, watching the sun come up we could see the whole island and Maui from up there. It was like being on top of the world. I definitely recommend it!

I rated this tour one star, but there were no issues with the content of the tour or the guide's response. However, it seems we fell into the 10% of the 90% clear skies on our observation day, as we could only see a faint sunset and just three stars in the night sky (three stars...). Therefore, my satisfaction level for the sunset and stargazing tour was zero. There's nothing we can do about the weather. Since we participated on the fourth day after the hurricane passed, the road from the Onizuka Visitor Center to the summit was reportedly closed due to landslides. The guide kindly explained this at pickup, and at that point, we could cancel for a full refund. We decided to participate, and by the time we arrived at the Onizuka Visitor Center, the road to the summit had reopened. However, it seems some people canceled on the day. Our guide, Matsuzaki, did his best to keep the spirits up despite only seeing a little bit of the sun at the summit, and he took many photos for us. During the stargazing, he diligently searched for a spot without clouds and explained the stars to the participants, who were feeling quite down since we couldn't see any stars at all (laughs). In the car on the way back, everyone had a somber atmosphere, and I think the guide felt quite uncomfortable. However, I believe the content was wonderful. If I ever come back to the Big Island, I would like to participate with this company again.
評価を★一つにしてしまいましたが、ツアーの内容もガイドの方の対応も全く問題はありません。ただし私たちの観測日は晴天率90%の中で10%にあたってしまったらしく、サンセットもわずかな光しか見えず、星空にいたっては目視できた星は3つだったため(3つって・・・)、サンセット&星空観測のためのツアーとしては満足度ゼロとなりました。天候ばかりは仕方がありません。ハリケーン通過後、4日目の参加だったのでオニヅカビジターセンターから山頂への道が土砂崩れ等で、お迎え時の情報では閉鎖されていました。お迎え時、ガイドの方がそのことを丁寧に説明してくれ、この時点でキャンセルしても100%返金されます。私たちは参加し、結果的にオニヅカビジターセンター到着時に閉鎖していた山頂への道も解除となりましたが、当日キャンセルをされた方もいるようでした。ガイドの松崎さんは山頂でもわずかな太陽しか見えない中、一生懸命盛り上げてくれ、たくさんの写真も撮ってくださいました。星空観測でも雲がない場所を懸命に探してくれ、テンションだだ下がりの参加者達に星が全く見えない中、懸命に星空の説明をしていただきました(笑)。帰りの車の中では参加者一様、葬式みたいな雰囲気でガイドの方もいたたまれなかったと思いますが、内容としては素晴らしいと思います。またいつかハワイ島に来ることがありましたら、こちらの会社で参加したいと思いました。

This time, during our two-week stay, the only tour was this stargazing! I was really looking forward to it, but unfortunately, the sky was cloudy and the moon was out. We could see the large moon, but the stars we were hoping to see were much better viewed back in Japan. It was disappointing.
If you have flexibility in your schedule, it's better to consider the moon phase and the time the moon rises when making a reservation. We didn't think about it at all.
I'm really disappointed. However, we were able to see a beautiful sunset.
今回、2週間の滞在で、ツアーはこの星空観測のみ!
これだけは、と期待していたのですが、あいにく、曇り空、月も出ている。大きな月のカサは見えましたが、お目当ての星は、普通に日本で見た方が、ずっと良く見えました。残念でした。
日程に余裕があるなら、月齢、月の出る時間等も考えて、予約をした方が良いです。

On the way to the destination, it rained and there were many clouds, making it impossible to see the sky, which was quite nerve-wracking as we headed to the summit. Although there were many clouds, the sunset peeking through them and the evening glow that turned the clouds red was wonderful.
I don't have any photos, but the starry sky was also amazing. I may have realized for the first time just how many stars there are.
Our guide, Macchan, was also very enjoyable and made the experience memorable. He was the person who left the biggest impression on me during this trip.
現地に向かう途中は雨が降ったり,雲が多くまったく空が見えなかったり,ハラハラドキドキで山頂に向かいました。雲は多かったものの雲間からのサンセットと雲を赤く染めた夕焼けが素晴らしかったです。
写真はありませんが,星空も最高でした。こんなにたくさん星があることを初めて知ったかもしれません。
ガイドのまっちゃんもとても楽しいガイドをしていただきました。今回の旅行で一番印象に残った人でした。
Dear Chobi,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. Our guide, Matsuzaki, provides a high level of hospitality, and we have many repeat customers because of it. Mauna Kea has been selected as one of the world's scenic spots, and the views are truly magnificent. The appearance of the clouds can change completely depending on the weather that day. If you have another opportunity, please join us for a different tour next time. Our guide, Matsuzaki, is capable of leading any tour, whether it's a round-the-island trip or a volcano tour.
Thank you once again.

The sunset and the starry sky were very beautiful, and the tour was enjoyable with easy-to-understand explanations of the constellations.
I received various precautions to avoid altitude sickness, but I think it would have been helpful to add what symptoms to watch out for.
サンセットも、星空もとても綺麗でした、星座をわかりやすく説明して頂き楽しいツアーでした。
高山病にならないよう色々注意をいただいたのですが、どんな症状に気をつけたら良いのかを、付け加えて頂けると良かったのかなぁと思います
Dear YUU,
Thank you very much for participating in our Mauna Kea Summit Sunset and Stargazing Tour.
We appreciate your feedback. Our company always ensures that we allow time for altitude acclimatization before heading to the summit, so it is rare for anyone to experience altitude sickness. However, if you ever feel unwell, please inform your guide as soon as possible. The guide will assess whether it is due to lack of oxygen or hyperventilation and will take appropriate action.
We hope you will visit the Big Island again soon. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back.

I'm sorry for the late review. My child wanted to see the stars on the Big Island, so we booked this tour. Since I had previously climbed Haleakalā on Maui, I didn't worry too much about altitude sickness. The guide took photos for us and shared fun stories during the drive, making the time fly by. The moonlight made it a bit difficult to see the stars (though it was still much better than back home), so next time we visit, I'll check the lunar calendar and will definitely book this tour again.
遅い体験談ですみません。子供がハワイ島で星を見たいと言っていたのでこちらのツアーを申し込みました。以前マウイ島のハレアカラに登ったことがあるので高山病の心配はそれほどしないで済みました。ガイドさんが写真を撮ってくれたり車中も楽しい話をしてくれてあっという間でした。月明りで星が見えづらかったので(地元よりはそれでも全然見えます)次に訪問する際は月暦も見てまたこちらにお世話になります。

On the way to the summit, we gradually acclimatized to prevent altitude sickness, but when we reached the top, a few people seemed to be suffering from it. It seems that if you sit and watch the sunset without forcing yourself to move, you'll be okay. We observed the starry sky from a point much lower than the summit, where the symptoms of altitude sickness had subsided, and we were able to enjoy stargazing. It was the best tour, as we got to see a starry sky that we usually can't see.
山頂に向かう途中で高山病対策で少しずつ体を慣らしていくのですが、山頂につくと数人高山病にかかり辛そうでした。無理に動かず座ってサンセットを見ていれば何とかなるようです。星空観測は山頂からだいぶ降りた所で観測したのでそこでは高山病の症状は治まっており楽しく星空観測出来ました。
普段見れない星空を見ることが出来最高のツアーでした
Dear Donan,
Thank you very much for participating in our Mauna Kea summit sunset and stargazing tour. I sincerely apologize for the discomfort caused by altitude sickness at the summit. We always have oxygen tanks available, so if you experience the same symptoms during your next visit and find it difficult to rest, please feel free to let our guide know. I have also heard that sucking on candies while going to the summit can help alleviate the symptoms, so I recommend giving that a try.
I am relieved to hear that you were able to recover and enjoy the stargazing experience.
Please do come back to the Big Island again. We sincerely look forward to your next visit.

The day I participated was my 53rd birthday. The weather was perfect, and the starry sky exceeded my expectations. Tyra, the navigator from Masashi Nature School, was amazing and made it a wonderful birthday. Tyra was born in Okinawa and lived in Kanagawa until the second year of high school, so her Japanese is perfect. She made our conversations enjoyable with jokes and shared a wealth of interesting facts, which was very educational. Her explanations of the starry sky added a unique touch, and the trivia related to stars and constellations was incredibly fascinating, making me say "Wow!" repeatedly. I definitely want to join Tyra's tour again.

I chose this tour because it focuses on stargazing and photography at a relatively high altitude (I actually had discount coupons for other tours and was quite torn about my choice). In the end, it was extremely good! My family participated, and we were able to capture my son's best shots as well as some great photos of the volcano, which left us all thrilled.
While the weather is a matter of luck, I could feel the professionalism and teamwork of the company. Next time, I would like to use this service for a sunrise tour. Thank you very much!
類似のツアーのうち、比較的高い高度での星空観察や写真撮影のことがポイントでこちらを選びました(実は他のツアーの割り引き券もあり、かなり迷ったのですが・・)。結果、非常に良かったです!家族で参加させていただきましたが、息子のベストショット撮影やちょうど火山の様子もわかる写真も手元に残り、皆で感激しました。

I participated in a tour to observe the starry sky at Mauna Kea, hoping for a sky full of stars during the new moon. The weather was clear at the summit of Mauna Kea, and I was excited for what promised to be a wonderful night of stargazing. However, around sunset, clouds suddenly spread across the sky, and the sunset only peeked through the gaps in the clouds. Despite this, I was very lucky to see the rare phenomenon of sun pillars. After that, it started to rain, and the stars seemed to vanish. The guides, Shin and Big Jin, began searching for a stargazing spot. When we had descended quite a bit, they explained, "Let's wait for another five minutes, and if the clouds don't clear, we'll head back." Just as everyone was starting to give up, the clouds suddenly parted, and although it was brief, we were able to see the Milky Way. We may not be able to conquer the weather, but thanks to the guides' efforts, we were able to enjoy the starry sky. Thank you very much.
マウナケアでの星空観測、新月での満天の星空を期待してツアーに参加しました。マウナケアの頂上までは晴天で、今日はすばらしい星空観測日和と期待にわくわくしました。ところが、日没のころには急に雲が広がってしまい、夕日は雲のすきまからしか顔を見せてくれませんでした。そんな中ですが、太陽柱という珍しい景色を見ることができ、とてもラッキーでした。その後は、雨が降ってきて星空はどこへやら。ガイドのシンさん・ビッグジンさんによる星空観測場所探しが始まりました。かなり標高を下ったところで、「もう5分待って雲が切れなかったら帰りましょう。」と説明があり、みんなが諦めかけていたところに、突然雲が切れ、短時間ではありましたが、天の川まで見ることができました。天候に勝つことはできませんが、ガイドさんの努力により無事に星空を見ることができました。ありがとうございました。

Very few places could match this experience. The location; the slow climb up the giant sloping mountain. We went through rain, sun, even through a cloud; through the lava landscape, ranch lands and very bumpy rocky last stretch of road to reach the top! And wow it was a view from the top.
Be warned; it is very very cold; not what you expect from your Hawaiian break! You get nice warm coats from the tour group though (and later a little hot cocoa and brownie to keep you going!)
As the sun sets; you can see the mountains shadow on the other side; a glimpse of Maui and the glint of the sun off the telescopes preparing for their nights work. You can see the odd bit of movement as they open up. As soon as the suns down; its all go though. We have to leave the area quickly as the lights from the cars interfere with the telescopes (so no, there is no looking around inside them; if that is what you're hoping for in this trip!).
We move down slope a little to a good spot to see the huge expanse of clear, cloudless sky and the abundance of stars.
It is slightly interrupted with the brightness of the moon (so depending how long your stay is in Hawaii, plan for a darker night, unless you love the moon!); but not enough to stop us seeing nebula, planets and stars - its a really interesting spot to see both the northern and southern skies.
We did also spot a bit of the glow from the erupting volcano

Our guide Jeff picked us up from the Pu'u Huluhulu Cinder Cone parking lot, at the base of the road up to the summit. We had a very nice pre-packaged dinner at the base camp, then rode up to the visitor center and onward to the observatories. A bumpy and steep ride, I was very happy to have an experienced driver at the wheel!
At the top the weather was cool and clear and good for viewing a sunset, then we went down to a slightly lower lot to view stars and planets through a good quality Celestron scope.... the clear air and high altitude really added detail! First time I have been able to make out the rings of Saturn, and four of Jupiter's moons were posing really well for us! Some really excellent deep space views too! Check out a cool image of the moon from the Celestron scope....
Highly recommended, especially if you live somewhere with so much haze and light pollution you don't get to see that stars that well!
