Our guide was excellent, very knowledgeable and prepared and our experience was unique with the viewing of a huge shooting star crossing the sky as a prelude to the eruption of the volcano in the distance. Unforgettable, thank you!

There is an observatory. The starry sky is very beautiful. I do not recommend driving there by yourself. The return trip is dark and the roads are bad.
天文台があります。星空か、とても綺麗です。自分で運転して見に行くのは、おすすめ出来ません。帰りは、暗く道も悪いです。
The summit is cold, so it's necessary to take measures against the cold.

Thanks to the captain and the naturalist, I was able to encounter whales at an incredibly close distance. I was told it was a very lucky experience.
船長やナチュラリストのおかげで、ものすごく至近距離でクジラに出会えました。とってもラッキーなことだと言われました。
I think it's better to go dressed in a way that can handle getting wet.

Since you'll be going barefoot when getting on the ferry from the sandy beach, it's best to wear sandals.

Forrest was quite knowledgeable and so polite! I'm prone to motion sickness, but did not get nauseous at all in the van. Got to get out and walk along the water, pet and feed horses, and learn all about the history of the beautiful, Hawaiian valley. The gift shop was great, too, with very reasonably priced snacks and ice cream. Wonderful and memorable experience! Mahalo nui loa!

We were the only Japanese participants. It truly felt like an overseas trip. The guide is also focused on environmental protection, practicing the balance between nature conservation and tourism on the Big Island.
Additionally, they pay attention to the safety of tour participants, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. There were plenty of fish swimming around, and the water clarity was high, making it a fun tour.
Lunch and breakfast were simple but delicious. I would love to participate again when I come back to the Big Island.

This tour was one of my favorite things we did while on the Big Island! Initially, the plan was to just go to the Waipi'o Valley lookout. I am so glad we ended up deciding to take the tour. You're taken down into the valley (on an extremely steep road) in a 10ish seater van. I get really carsick and had no issues during the tour. Our wonderful guide, Forrest, informed us of the history of the valley and it's people. He was extremely informative and clearly cares so much about the valley and it's history. The views inside the valley were stunning! Do yourself a favor and book this tour.
