Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation

Had a good time

Reviewed by: Kathy

Seeing the sun set at the top of mauna kea was a once in a lifetime adventure. However dInner wasn't that great - was handed the food to eat at the visitor center -no where to sit and eat and had to balance dinner plate on my lap. This was not what I expected. As well, food was not very good. No drink included. Astronomy lesson after sunset was interesting. Although overall the trip was ok I did not think it was worth the money.

ハワイ島　乗馬ツアー　コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬！ ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

Galloping across the vast grasslands. 大草原を駈ける

Reviewed by: Yoshi

I participated because I wanted to ride in a wide open space, as the riding club was only within a circle. Since the riding styles were different, both the horses and I were a bit confused at first, but we quickly got used to it and started moving. The horses were calm and well-trained, knowing the route, so they responded well to just a little cue. The feeling of galloping across the vast grasslands was the best!

Before starting, regarding the rental coats, it was more of a "feel free to use them if you want" attitude. The weather was nice, and we were wearing jackets, plus the rental coats weren't very clean, so we intended not to borrow one. However, since many people (we were the only Japanese) were borrowing them, I asked, "Should I wear a coat?" and was told, "It's better to wear one because it's cold." Indeed, once we got out to the grasslands, the wind was very strong, and it was the right decision to borrow a coat.

In Japan, there would likely be polite advice given at the beginning... They were very nice people, but I definitely felt the culture of personal responsibility in America.

乗馬クラブではサークルの中だけなので、広いところで乗馬がしたくて参加しました。
乗馬スタイルが違うので、最初は人間も馬も少し戸惑いましたが、すぐに慣れて動きました。
馬は性格もおとなしくよく馴れていて路も知っているので、少しの合図でよく言うことを聞いてくれます。
大草原を駈ける気分は最高でした！
スタート前に貸出のコートについて「使うんだったらどうぞ」という感じでした。
天気も良く私達は上着を着ていたし、貸出コートもあまりきれいではなく、借りないつもりでしたが多くの人が(日本人は私達だけ)借りていたので「コートは着たほうがいい？」と聞くと「寒いから着たほうがいい」との事でした。確かに草原に出るととても風が強く、コートを借りて正解でした。
日本だったら最初に丁寧なアドバイスがあるだろうに・・・
とても感じの良い人たちでしたが、さすがにアメリカ自己責任の文化を実感しました。

Lava and Waipi'o Valley 溶岩とワイピオ渓谷

Reviewed by: YUMI at KAILUA KONA

The view of Hawaii Island from the helicopter was amazing. I was very satisfied to see the lava as well. I got so close to the lava that I could even feel the smell and temperature, which was really exciting. I wasn't expecting much, but Waipi'o Valley and the neighboring valley were wonderful, with breathtaking scenery. The waterfalls were also incredibly beautiful. The helicopter pilot got really close to the lava and waterfalls, allowing us to see many sights I had never seen before. I highly recommend it. I want to experience it again.

野生のマンタ　シュノーケリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／軽食付き＞

I couldn't become a diver, but... ダイバーにはなれなかったけど…

Reviewed by: happa

I took a taxi to the Careho Shopping Center, borrowed a sweat suit at the office, and put it on over the swimsuit I was wearing. Then, I got back into the waiting taxi and headed to Careho Bay, where the boat was docked. There were only my partner and me, the only Japanese people there. I felt anxious, but looking at the people around me, I realized it would be fine.

Once we got out to sea, we all took the noodles, which are floating devices, and gradually lowered them from under our arms down to our ankles while putting on our snorkels, waiting for the manta rays to come close to the lights. It felt like being a diver inside an aquarium. The manta rays came so close to my face and body; it was incredibly impressive. That sensation was moving and thrilling, and it's definitely worth experiencing at least once!

　ケアホウショッピングセンターへタクシーで乗り付け、スエットスーツを事務所で借り、着ていった水着の上に着込み、待ってもらってたタクシーで船が停泊しているケアホウ湾へ。

マウナケア山頂 サンセット＆星空観測ツアー ＜午後／天体望遠鏡／夕食付／英語ガイド＞ by ハワイフォレスト＆トレイル

Satisfying sunset and stargazing. 満足のサンセット＆星空観測

Reviewed by: 部留賀

In October 2014, as usual, the Japanese tour was fully booked, so I joined this one. The guide's English explanations were at native speed, making it hard to understand, but he answered our questions slowly during meals and bathroom breaks.

While the Japanese tour seems to have meals at the Onizuka Visitor Center at an altitude of 2,800 meters to help acclimatize, this tour had meals at a "certain place" at the foot of the mountain. After a brief rest at a scenic spot, we climbed straight to the summit, so those worried about altitude sickness need to stay hydrated. Each person was given a bottle of water during the meal for this purpose.

The views of the various observatories from around the world, the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds, and the subsequent twilight were absolutely stunning. As the sun set, the cold increased, and the warm clothing provided was appreciated. After it got a bit darker, we moved near the Onizuka Visitor Center for stargazing after a bathroom break. Unlike other tours that observed within the center's grounds, we had our stargazing in a less illuminated area by the roadside.

I can't forget the beauty of the starry sky I saw at a ski resort late at night, and this sky, along with the Milky Way, was equally enjoyable. There was also stargazing with a telescope, and although the moonlight can be a nuisance for stargazing, the crescent moon this time allowed for good observation of craters through the telescope, which was actually a plus.

In this tour, out of 16 participants on one bus, only my spouse and I were Japanese. Another bus (which had the same meal location) had only one couple of newlyweds as Japanese participants. I think the Japanese tour is recommended, but this one is also a good tour overall. However, the "certain place" where we had our meal had a simple toilet, so those who are extremely particular about cleanliness should be prepared for that.

２０１４年１０月、例によって日本語ツアーが満杯でこちらに参加。ガイドさんの英語説明はネイティブスピードでほとんどわからないが、食事やトイレ時のこちらからの質問等にはゆっくり答えてくれた。
また日本語のツアーは標高２８００メートルのオニズカ・ビジターセンターで食事をしながら標高に体をならしていくようだが、こちらのツアーは麓の「とある場所」で食事をし、その後は見晴しの良いところで少し休憩はあるものの、一気に山頂まで登るため、高山病が心配な人には水分を多く取るような注意が必要だ。そのための水は食事の時に１人１ボトル配布された。
山頂での各国の天文台、雲海に沈む夕日、その後の夕焼けは文句なくすばらしかった。
日が沈むと寒さが増し、貸してくれた防寒具がありがたい。さらにすこし暗くなるとトイレの後、星空観測のためオニズカ・ビジターセンター付近に移動。こちらも他のツアーがセンター敷地内での観測になるのに対し、周りの光がより少ない道路脇の空き地での観測だった。
昔、夜中にスキー場で見た星空の素晴らしさが忘れられないが、それに匹敵する星空と天の川が堪能できた。天体望遠鏡での観測もあったが、星空観測には天敵の月の光も今回の三日月程度なら天体望遠鏡でクレーターがよく観察でき、逆によかった。
今回のツアーはバス１台に１６人の参加者中、日本人は我々夫婦２人だけでした。もう１台別のバス（食事だけ同じ場所で）も日本人参加者は１組の新婚さんのご夫婦だけでした。
日本語のツアーの方がおすすめとは思いますが、こちらも総合的に良いツアーです。
ただし、食事をいただいた上記「とある場所」は簡易トイレなので、極端に清潔好きな人はほんの少々ですが覚悟しておいた方がよいでしょう。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック＆シュノーケルツアー　海中洞窟探検プランあり　＜早朝・午前／日本語ガイド＞by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

I had a great time! とても楽しかったです！

Reviewed by: misako

It was my first time kayaking, but I had a wonderful half-day guided by Noni and Kevin. I enjoyed kayaking, snorkeling in the beautiful sea, and relaxing on the lava rocks, fully experiencing the great nature of the Big Island. They also took photos during the tour, and I received all the data shortly afterward. It's often the case that photos taken during trips are sold at high prices, but in this tour, I felt that they were genuinely guiding us to enjoy kayaking without any such concerns. The personalities of the two guides were truly wonderful. Since it was a water activity, I chose this tour with a Japanese guide for safety, and it was definitely the right choice.

I participated from Mauna Lani, so the meeting point was a bit far, but I still felt it was worth it. Don't forget your rash guard, hat, and sunscreen as the sun is strong!

シーカヤックは初めてでしたが、ノニさんケヴィンさんの案内で楽しい半日を過ごすことができました。とてもきれいな海でのカヤック、シュノーケル、そして溶岩のうえでの岩盤浴とハワイ島の大自然を満喫できました。ツアー中は写真も撮ってくださり、後日すぐに全てのデータもいただけました。旅行中に撮ってもらう写真は販売目的で高額なことになることが多いですが、このツアーではそのようなことがなく、純粋にカヤックを楽しむためのガイドをしてくれていると感じました。ガイドのお二人の人柄がとても素晴らしいです。海でのアクティビティなので、安全を考えて日本語ガイドであるこのツアーを選びましたが大正解でした。

マウナ・ラニからの参加でしたので、集合場所までは少し距離がありましたが、それをもってしても参加してよかったと思えます。

ハワイ島 パラセイリング ＜午前・午後／カイルアコナ発＞ by UFO Parasail

It's a breathtaking view! 絶景です！

Reviewed by: はねみみ

During my trip to Hawaii, I had a strong desire to experience parasailing, so I signed up for this tour. I was a bit anxious since there was no Japanese guide, but the local tour company staff were accustomed to Japanese tourists, so it was fine.

On the day of the tour, the weather was great, and from 300 meters above, I was able to enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding area, the endless ocean, and the gentle mountains of Hawaii. I believe it was a valuable experience. There wasn't much wind at that altitude, so even though it was 300 meters up, it felt stable and I didn't feel much fear. If you're hesitating about whether to try it, I definitely encourage you to go for it. My companion, who usually doesn't enjoy thrill rides, also had a great time with parasailing. It will surely become a lifelong memory! Additionally, this tour allows you to request photo shoots while parasailing, so don't forget your money, smiles, and camera-ready poses.

ハワイ旅行中に、絶対パラセーリングを体験したい！という強い思いから、こちらのツアーに申し込みました。日本語ガイドがいらっしゃらないということでしたので、少し不安でしたが、現地の催行会社の方は日本人観光客に慣れていらっしゃるので、大丈夫でした。
当日はとても、天気がよく、３００メートル上空から、近隣地区一体、どこまでも続く海、ハワイの緩やかな山々…と絶景を楽しむことができ、貴重な体験ができたのではないかと思います。上空はそれほど風が吹いていませんでしたので、３００メートル上空と言っても安定しており、それほど恐怖は感じません。どうしようかな…と迷われている方がいらっしゃいましたら、ぜひトライしてみてくださいませ。私の同行者も絶叫系はダメな方ですが、パラセーリングは楽しんでいました。一生ものの思い出になること間違いなし！またこちらのツアーでは、現地でパラセーリング中の写真撮影を依頼することが可能ですので、お金と笑顔とカメラ目線をお忘れなく。

マウナケア山頂 サンセット＆星空観測ツアー ＜午後／天体望遠鏡／夕食付／英語ガイド＞ by ハワイフォレスト＆トレイル

Wonderful! ★Starry Sky★ すばらしい！★星空★

Reviewed by: k.s

I participated with my parents. The Mauna Kea Stargazing Tour seems to be quite popular, and although I asked a travel agency to make a reservation, they couldn't secure one, so I booked online for the first time.

At first, I was filled with anxiety about whether it would be okay, but the guide and all the staff were kind, and I was able to enjoy the experience without any problems.

Regarding my concerns, since it was a meet-up at the location, I was worried about how to get there, but I used a taxi. Once I told the driver the name of the company at the meeting point, they understood right away.

I was prepared for no return transportation, but I was pleasantly surprised to be taken back to the Keauhou Hotel. I think it would be reassuring if it were noted that "return transportation is included."

During the drive, I saw that the mountain was covered in clouds from below, but since the car passed above the clouds, it makes sense that the summit has a high rate of clear weather. Also, the road near the top was unpaved, and there was a broken-down car along the way. I really don't think it would be feasible with a rental car. I felt a little bit of altitude sickness, with a slight headache, but overall, I was fine.

We arrived at the summit just in time for sunset and were able to see the sun setting into the sea of clouds, which was very magical.

As for the stars, since it was a new moon, they were incredibly beautiful. It was my first time seeing the Milky Way so clearly. The chocolate brownies and warm drinks during the observation were also very delicious.

The only downside was that everything was in English. The most challenging part was the phone call. I had to confirm the reservation by phone before the day of the tour, but when I tried to call, I couldn't communicate, so I ended up asking the travel agency for help. Additionally, since my parents don't speak any English, I think they had a hard time understanding the guide's explanations.

However, unlike Oahu, where there are mostly Japanese people, the other participants in the tour came from various countries, which made me feel like I was truly traveling abroad. I think it’s worth participating even if it’s not in Japanese.

I'm not a spokesperson for the tour company, but I believe you'll be more than satisfied with the tour price! I highly recommend it!

両親と三人で参加しました。マウナケア星空ツアーは人気なようで旅行代理店に予約をお願いしたがとれず、はじめて、インターネットで予約しました。
最初は、本当に大丈夫かなと不安でいっぱいでしたが、ガイドさん、スタッフの皆さんは親切で、
全く問題なく楽しんで参加できました。
不安だなと感じた点について、
現地集合ということもあり、どうやって現地まで行こうか悩みましたがタクシーを利用しました。
集合場所の会社名を伝えたらすぐにわかってもらえました。
また、帰りの送迎が無いと覚悟していたのですが、しっかり、ケアウホウのホテルまで送って頂けました。「帰りの送迎あり」と記載して頂けると安心できると思います。
車での移動ですが、下から山を見たら雲に覆われていたのですが、車は、雲の上を通過していくため山頂の晴天率が高いこともうなずけます。また、頂上付近の道は、舗装されておらず、途中、故障車が停まっていました。やはり、レンタカーでは無理だと思います。高山病も、すこし頭が痛いかなと思ったりもしましたが、特に大丈夫でした。
山頂には、しっかり夕日の時間に到着し雲海に沈む夕日を見ることができ、とても幻想的でした。
肝心の星空ですが、
新月ということもあり,とても綺麗でした。天の川をあんなにはっきり見たのは、はじめてでした。
また、観測中のチョコブラウニーとあたたかい飲み物は、とっても美味しかったです。
一つだけ残念なのは、すべて英語ということです。
一番困ったのは、電話です。前日までに予約確認の電話をしなければならないため、電話をしてみたものの伝わらず、結局旅行代理店の方にお願いしました。
また、両親は全く英語ができないためガイドさんの説明が？？？だったと思います。
しかし、日本人ばかりいるオアフ島と違って一緒にいったツアーの皆さんも様々な国からお見えになっていて、海外旅行にきたと言う感じがして良かったのかなと、見方をかえれば言えなくもないです。
日本語じゃないからとあきらめず、参加してみるのもいいと思います。

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ（キングカメハメハホテル内）＜ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題／シェルレイ付＞

It's a show that allows you to experience Hawaii. ハワイを実感できるショーです

Reviewed by: 若く見えるが実はおじさん

This time, my spouse and I stayed on the Big Island for six days.

We only booked the "Deluxe Tour to World Heritage Site Kilauea and Mauna Kea Stargazing (Volcano and Stars in One Day!) by Kailani Tours Hawaii" through VELTRA, so we also signed up for this plan to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere. It was definitely the right choice!

Although there were opinions in the reviews that everything was in English and it wouldn't be fun unless you were proficient in the language, I’m posting this to alleviate those concerns and help others enjoy it more.

1. First, the coupon reception
I attached a photo, but when you enter the Kamehameha Hotel and go to the right at the dedicated reception, you can present your coupon, and they will tell you the meeting place. (Staff were present at this reception from the morning.) This map was provided by the hotel. Since I’m not good at English, bringing it along to ask about the meeting place was a good decision. I might not have understood it just verbally... (It was in an area that seemed to explain Hawaii's history within the hotel.)

2. Meeting place and landmarks
I attached a photo for this as well, but there will be signs in the hotel, so that’s where you gather. The person at the dedicated reception told me to arrive by 5 PM, but be careful about that! It’s better to arrive about an hour early to secure a good spot in line. I arrived 50 minutes early and was at the front of the general line, but there was already one group in the priority line, and it became a queue after about 20 minutes. The seating is first-come, first-served, so it’s best to gather early!

3. Content
After lining up, I received a free lei (I didn’t purchase the paid ones) and took photos (they will come around selling them), and after checking in, we went to the venue to grab drinks and were shown to our seats. I was the first to arrive and sat in the front row center of the general seating, but the Japanese people who arrived normally and lined up were also seated together in fairly decent spots in a separate group. (It seems they make arrangements so that you can converse with others in Japanese.)

At the venue, a band was already performing, and there were free services like tattooing and weaving fish with grass. Of course, drinks, including alcohol, were free-flowing.

Dinner started around 6:15 PM, and it gets dark before 7 PM, so it’s best to wrap up your meal and drinks by then.

Having researched the structure of this event through reviews, I was able to enjoy it a lot even though I’m not good at English. It was fun. (I think it would be enjoyable even for families with children!)

今回はハワイ島に夫婦で６日間の滞在でした。

参加して大正解でした！

口コミではすべて英語なので語学が堪能でないと面白くないとの意見も出ていましたが、そんな不安を解消するためと、より楽しんでもらうために投稿をします。

１．まずはクーポンの受付
　写真を張りましたが、カメハメハホテルを入って右手の専用受付にクーポンを出すと、
　集合場所を教えてくれます。（この受付は朝からスタッフが張り付いていました。）
　この見取り図はホテルでもらった見取り図です。英語が苦手なため持参して集合場所を聞い
　たのは正解でした。口頭だけだとわからなかったかも、、、
　（ホテル内にあるハワイの歴史説明エリアみたいなところでした。）

２．集合場所や目印
　これも写真を張りましたが、ホテル内に看板が出されるのでそこに集合です。
　専用受付の人は１７時に行けばいいと教えてくれますが、そこは注意！
　約一時間前に行って列の先頭をとれるかとれないかの感じです。私は50分前に行って
　一般列の先頭でしたが、既に優先席列には一組並んでいましたし、２０分ぐらいしたら行列
　になっています。観覧席は早いもの順なので早めの集合が良いですよ！

３．内容
　行列に並んだあと、無料レイ（有料例は購入しませんでした）を受けもらって撮影後
　（会場で売りに来ます）、本受付をしたのちに会場までいって飲み物を取って席に案内を
　してもらいます。
　私は一番乗りで一般席最前列中央でしたが、普通に来て並んでいた日本人たちは、別グルー
　プでもそんなに悪くない席にある程度まとめて座らせてもらっていました。（日本語で他人
　と会話ができるようにしてくれる配慮みたいです）
　
　会場ではすでにバンドが演奏、タトゥーや草で魚編む体験など無料のサービスがあります。
　もちろん飲み物もアルコールを含めてフリードリンクです。

　1815ぐらいから食事開始で、19時前には手元も暗くなりますから、それまでに食事や飲み
　物はひと段落しておいたほうがいいですね。

ある程度、このイベントの構成等を口コミ等で調べていたので、英語が苦手でもすごく楽しめました。
楽しかったです。（お子様がいても楽しめると思いますよ！）

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

An exhilarating rafting experience! スリル満点のラフティング体験！

Reviewed by: hawaii.aya

We headed to the meeting place from the hotel by rental car. Since the Big Island of Hawaii has straightforward roads, I don't think driving is difficult, but there are very few signs, so it's best to check the location thoroughly before participating. Alternatively, I recommend asking for details at the hotel's Japanese desk!

For the activity, we traveled to the snorkeling point on a tube boat, as shown in the pictures. Just the ride on the tube boat was thrilling and enjoyable!

At the snorkeling point, we saw many fish and a sea urchin that was larger than anything I've ever seen! Also, while diving, I could hear the sound of fish pecking at the coral!

Regarding the cave exploration, I think you'll have a general understanding since you'll receive guidance in Japanese beforehand.

For meals, we had handmade sandwiches, cookies, potato chips, juice, water, and fresh pineapple and oranges cut by the captain on the spot.

I think bringing a towel, a camera, and sunscreen would be sufficient.

As mentioned in the precautions, there are no restrooms on the tube boat. Please be aware that you won't be able to go to the restroom for the four hours during the activity!

ホテルから集合場所までは、レンタカーで向かいました。
ハワイ島は一本道なので運転は難しくないと思いますが、看板は非常に少ないので、参加前に場所の確認はしっかりとしらべた方が良いと思います。もしくはホテルの日本語デスクのようなところで、詳しく聞く事をオススメします！

アクティビティは、写真にあるようなチューブボートでシュノーケルポイントまで向かいます。
チューブボートの移動だけでもスリル満点で楽しめました＼(^o^)／

シュノーケルポイントではたくさんのお魚、みたこともない位大きなウニが見れます！
また、潜っているとお魚がサンゴを突つく音なんかも聞こえましたよ！

洞窟探検については、事前に日本語の案内がもらえるのでなんとなく分かるかと思います。

お食事は手作りサンドウィッチ、クッキー、ポテトチップス、ジュース、お水、船長さんがその場で切るパイナップルとオレンジでした。

持ち物はタオルとカメラ、日焼け止めがあれば十分かと思います。

注意事項にもあるかと思いますが、チューブボートのためトイレがありません。アクティビティ中の4時間はトイレに行けませんのでご注意下さい！

ハワイ島　オーシャンラフティング＆シュノーケルリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／食事付き＞

An exhilarating rafting experience! スリル満点のラフティング体験！

Reviewed by: hawaii.aya

We headed to the meeting point from the hotel by rental car. Since the Big Island of Hawaii has straightforward roads, I don't think driving is difficult, but there are very few signs, so it's best to check the location thoroughly before participating. Alternatively, I recommend asking for details at the hotel's Japanese desk!

For the activity, we traveled to the snorkeling point on a tube boat, as shown in the pictures. The thrill of just moving on the tube boat was a lot of fun!

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー　滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く！＜午前・午後／英語ガイド／食事付＞by フェアウィンド号

It was interesting. 面白かったです

Reviewed by: 60歳夫婦

It’s about a one-hour boat trip to Kealakekua Bay. For breakfast, we had bagels, papaya, melon, and coffee. Once we arrived at Kealakekua Bay, we started our first snorkeling session. For lunch, we enjoyed burgers, hot dogs, fruits, and drinks like cola and coffee, followed by our second snorkeling session. The joy of chasing fish in the clear, calm bay is exceptional. There were about 40 participants, but only three groups of Japanese, including us, totaling seven people, while most were Westerners. We borrowed floatation devices to swim, and even if you’re confident in your swimming, having a floatation device makes it easier. I thought I had applied enough sunscreen, but my shoulders got sunburned. Sunscreen is definitely necessary. It was a tour I would like to join again.

ケアラケクア湾まで約１時間の船旅です。朝食はベーグルとパパイア、メロンとコーヒー。
ケアラケクア湾へ着くと１回目のシュノーケル開始、昼食はバーガー、ホットドッグ、果物にコーラやコーヒーなどを食べ、２回目のシュノーケルを行いました。澄み切った穏やかな湾で魚たちを追う楽しさは格別です。４０名程の参加者がいましたが、日本人は私たちを含め３組、７名だけで大半が欧米人でした。腰に巻く浮具を借り泳ぎましたが、泳ぎに自信があっても浮具はあった方が楽です。日焼け止めを十分に塗ったつもりでしたが、肩口は赤くなりました。日焼け止めは絶対に必要です。
また参加したいと思えるツアーでした。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック＆シュノーケルツアー　海中洞窟探検プランあり　＜早朝・午前／日本語ガイド＞by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

Kayaking is the best!! カヤック最高！！

Reviewed by: arita

Thank you, Kevin and Noni, for your support.
The OP tour in Hawaii left the biggest impression on me.
I have experienced various tours before, but none of them were particularly moving. However, this time, the kayaking, snorkeling, and paddleboarding were absolutely perfect.
First of all, the beauty of the ocean was remarkable, and it was a significant difference compared to Oahu, which was truly moving.
Additionally, the program was just right for me and my wife to experience together, and above all, we were very satisfied with the attentive service from the two instructors.
It seems that Kevin and Noni have other plans as well, so I would love to rely on you again next time.
Thank you very much.

ケビンさん　ノニさん　お世話になりました。
ハワイのOPツアーで一番印象に残りました。
ツアーは今まで、色々体験しましたが、どれも　今一　感動が薄かったのですが
今回の　カヤックとシュノーケルとパドルボードは、見事にはまりました。
第一に海が綺麗な事、オアフ島とは格段の差があり、感動でした。
また、私の奥さんと体験するには、丁度良いプログラムであった事と
何より　インストラクターの二人に丁寧に接して戴いた事で
ツアー料金以上に、満足しました。
まだ、ケビンさんノニさんは、別のプランもお持ちの様ですので
次回もお世話になりたいものです。
宜しくお願いします。

伝統ルアウ＆フラ・ハワイアンショー　 レジェンズ・オブ・ハワイ（ヒルトンワイコロアビレッジ）＜日・火・金催行／ブッフェ夕食／飲み放題＞

Incredible power! In the front row! 大迫力！一番前の席にて！

Reviewed by: のりち

I was able to sit in the front row when I arrived on time.
The show featured wonderful hula dancing, powerful male fire performances, and a packed schedule that made the time fly by.
The food was served buffet-style, which allowed me to adjust the amount I ate, and I thought that was great. The taste was fairly good.

集合時間通りに行ったら、一番前の席に座ることができました。
ショーの内容は素敵なフラダンス、
迫力満点の男性の火を使ったダンスと盛りだくさんの内容であっという間の時間でした。
お料理はブュッフェで、自分が食べる量を調節できたのでよかったと思います。味はそれなりに美味しかったです。
