I was able to see manta rays up close! マンタを間近で見ることができました！

Reviewed by: あい★

I participated in the tour in September 2017. The tour guide was very friendly and funny. A manta ray passed right in front of me, and it was so moving! It was really cute. On the way home, there was an engine trouble that made me a bit anxious, but the tour guide and the other staff worked hard, and I was able to get home safely. They were such wonderful people that I felt like I wanted to live on the Big Island!

2017年9月に参加させていただきました。
ツアーのお姉さんがとても気さくで面白かったです。
マンタが目の前を通り過ぎてくれて、感動しました！とても可愛かったです。
帰宅途中エンジントラブルが発生して少し不安になりましたが、ツアーガイドのお姉さん、お兄さんが頑張ってくれて無事に帰宅できました。
私もハワイ島に住みたくなるぐらい素敵な方々でした！

If you're unlucky, it can turn into the worst tour. 運が悪いと最悪のツアーに

Reviewed by: hedgehog

I held onto the blue glowing board, but there were too many people clinging to one board, making it cramped. The manta ray that appeared was just one, far away. The boat and the water were both very choppy, causing many people to feel seasick. On the way back, it was extremely cold, and some were vomiting, creating a hellish scene. It felt like a waste of over 30,000 yen for two people, making it the worst tour I've participated in so far (though I understand it's nature, so it's unavoidable).

If you don't see anything, you can participate for free the next day, but I had booked a different tour for the following day and couldn't join (I suspect most people will be in the same situation). I'm also doubtful if the right to participate for free again is valid for a few years later; if not, this is truly a terrible tour. For those who participate, please make sure to take motion sickness medication and be prepared for the possibility that you might not see anything.

青く光るボードにつかまって見るのですが、一つのボードにつかまる人数が多すぎて窮屈でした。そして現れたマンタは遠くの方に1匹だけ。ボート上も海の中も揺れが激しく、酔う人多数。帰りはとても寒く、吐く人もいて、地獄絵図でした。2人で3万円以上払ってこれかよという感じで、これまで参加したツアーで最悪のものとなりました（自然相手なので仕方ありませんが）。

見れなかった場合、翌日も無料で参加できるということですが、翌日は別のツアーを申し込んでおり参加できませんでした（ほとんどの方がそうなるのでは）。無料で再度参加の権利は数年後でも有効なのか疑問ですが、そうでないとしたら本当にひどいツアーです。参加する方は、必ず酔い止めを飲んで、見れない可能性があると覚悟して参加してください。

Due to the significant changes in altitude and climate experienced within just a few hours, participation is not recommended for those with health concerns. Even if you are healthy, be sure to listen carefully to the guide's instructions and adhere to the precautions. Doing so will ensure a wonderful experience. (^_-)-☆

It's an experience that you can't easily find elsewhere. 他ではなかなかできない体験です

Reviewed by: AI's family

My daughter, who was previously too young due to age restrictions, was finally able to participate, and we joined the tour together. On the west coast of the Big Island, you can see a wonderful sunset from anywhere, so I thought we might not need to climb the mountain, but the sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea was indeed exceptional.

I was worried about car sickness since I heard there are unpaved parts on the road to the summit, but instead of car sickness, I ended up suffering from altitude sickness due to the lack of oxygen. However, our guide quickly provided oxygen from a tank, and we were able to enjoy the sunset and the starry sky without any issues. I was really glad to have joined a tour with a guide.

At the snow-covered summit of Mauna Kea, I was concerned about the cold, but the rental cold-weather gear from Masashi Nature School was as warm as the reviews said. For those who are sensitive to the cold, I recommend bringing something to cover your face, head, and ears, as well as heat-tech innerwear for warmth.

It was great to have explanations during the stargazing as well. Last time I visited, I did not join the summit tour and only did stargazing from the mountainside, but when it comes to viewing the stars, I saw about the same or even more this time (the stargazing after the summit tour had quite a bit of interference from headlights of cars coming down from the summit). So, if the focus is on stargazing, it might not be necessary to have the sunset from the summit, but experiencing a sunset at such a height, higher than Mount Fuji, is something you can't easily find elsewhere.

前回は年齢制限に引っかかっていた娘も参加できる年齢になり、親子で参加しました。ハワイ島西海岸ではどこからでも素晴らしい夕日がみられるので、山の上に登らなくても…と思いましたが、マウナケア山頂からの日の入りはやはり格別でした。
山頂までの道は舗装されていない部分もあるという事で車酔いを心配していましたが、車酔いよりも酸素が少ないために起きる高山病にかかってしまいました。しかし、ガイドさんがすぐに酸素ボンベで酸素補給をしてくださり、事なきを得て日の入り、星空を見ることができました。やはりガイドさんのいるツアーに参加してよかったと思いました。
雪の積もるマウナケア山頂、寒さを心配していましたがマサシネーチャーズスクールの貸出用防寒具は口コミ通り暖かかったので、寒がりな方は防寒具で隠せない顔・頭・耳をカバーするものやヒートテックインナーで防寒対策をしておけばよいと思います。
星空ウォッチングも解説していただいて見られたのがよかったです。
前回来た時には山頂ツアーではなく、山の中腹でのスターゲイジングでしたが、星空を見るという事でしたら同じくらいかそれ以上見えた（山頂ツアー後の星空ウォッチングは山頂から降りてくる車が多いのでヘッドライトに邪魔される時間が結構あるため）ので、星空…という事にフォーカスするのであれば山頂日の入りである必要はないのかもしれませんが、富士山以上の高さでの日の入りを見る体験は他ではなかなかできないと思います。

Definitely worth a visit! 行く価値あり！

Reviewed by: SOPHIA

I signed up at my partner's strong request, and since it was quite expensive, I participated without much enthusiasm, but it turned out to be more enjoyable than I expected.
We started with a brief lecture before setting off. The wonderful scenery seen from the back of the horse was, of course, much higher than my usual view, which made it enjoyable.
The child of the foreign family accompanying us was around elementary school age, and they had a great time.
We splashed through the flowing river, and at one point, we had trouble with a horse that stopped to eat grass and wouldn’t move at all, but looking back, that became a fun memory.

連れ合いのたっての希望で申し込んだが、それなりに高額なので、気乗りせずに参加したが、思ったより楽しかった。
最初に簡単なレクチャーがあって出発。馬の背から見る素晴らしい風景は、当然ながら普段よりずっと視線が高いので楽しめた。
同行の外国人の親子連れの子供は小学生ぐらいだったが、十分楽しんでいた。
川の流れの中をジャブジャブ入って行ったり、途中で止まって草を食べ出して全然動かなくなってしまった馬に困ったりもしたが、後になればそれも楽しい思い出になった。

Don't expect too much from the sunset and stargazing tour. 期待し過ぎちゃいけないサンセット&星空観測ツアー

Reviewed by: natsurin

I had been looking forward to going to the Big Island of Hawaii for so long, but the sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea was not special; it was just beautifully ordinary, really ordinary...

Maybe it's because the sunsets on the Big Island are beautiful no matter where you watch them from...

Perhaps I've experienced too many sunrises and sunsets during my travels, both abroad and domestically...

On the tour's website, it mentioned, "Using a reflecting telescope and a laser pointer, the guide will explain the constellations and stars," and I was really looking forward to seeing the stars and the moon through the reflecting telescope. However, there was no telescope set up at the location for viewing the constellations, and there was no explanation that there wouldn't be a reflecting telescope this time, which was quite disappointing.

In the car, I was seated in a three-person row with an unfamiliar elderly man and his adult daughter. The elderly man took up quite a bit of space, so I was in a half-sitting position the whole time... I didn't say anything to the elderly man about not moving in, so the driver wasn't at fault, but I thought it would be tough if someone with a larger build sat in the same row.

念願のハワイ島に行く前から凄い凄い期待し過ぎてしまっていたので、実際に観たマウナケア山頂からの夕陽はスペシャルでは無く、普通に綺麗だった、本当に普通に…

ハワイ島はどこから夕陽を観ても綺麗過ぎだからでしょうか…

沢山の海外旅行、国内旅行で朝日・夕陽を体験し過ぎてしまったのかもしれない…

ツアーのHPに「反射望遠鏡とレーザーペンを使ってガイドが星座と星の説明」とあり、「反射望遠鏡」で観る星や月を超楽しみにしていたのに星座を観る場所には反射望遠鏡の準備もされていなくて、今回は反射望遠鏡が無いと言う説明もなくて、Wでガックリ度が増しました(涙)
＿|￣|○

車の中では3人席で知らないお爺さんと成人した娘と私。お爺さんは1人でかなり座席を所有するので私はずっと半ケツ状態でした…
特に奥に詰めないお爺さんに注意もしなかったので担当のドライバーさんには責任はありませんが、かなり体格の良い方が同じ列の席に座ると大変だと思いました。

Reviewed by: aya

I participated in this tour as a solo traveler. At first, I considered driving to Mauna Kea by rental car, but since it was my first time on the Big Island, I felt a bit anxious and decided to join the tour instead. The adjustments for altitude, the provision of warm drinks and meals, the rental of cold-weather gear (thick clothing and gloves), and the stargazing were all things I couldn't have done alone, so I truly made wonderful memories by participating. I recommend that those who are sensitive to the cold bring their own cold-weather gear. I tend to get hot, but the down jacket and long-sleeve T-shirt I brought just in case were very helpful. The summit of Mauna Kea is colder than I imagined (laughs)! Thank you, Tomo, for your assistance. Thank you very much.

ひとり旅で参加させていただきました。最初はレンタカーでマウナケアへ行くことを考えておりましたが、初めてのハワイ島に不安もあったので、ツアーに参加することを決めました。気圧の調整や温かい飲み物・食事の提供、防寒着(上下の分厚いウエア＋手袋)の貸し出しや天体観測、一人ではできないことばかりでしたので、参加して本当にいい思い出作りができました。寒がりさんはご自分で防寒着を持参することをお勧めします。私は暑がりですが、念のため持って行ったダウンジャケットとロングTシャツが役に立ちました。マウナケアの頂上は想像以上に寒いです(笑)！　tomoさん、お世話になりました。ありがとうございました。

Is luck on your side during the New Year holidays!? 年末年始は運しだい！？

Reviewed by: Matsu

This tour cannot proceed to the summit if the weather turns bad, and you won't be able to see the stars. In other words, you'll end up spending time that has no meaning. In that case, the refund is $15. While nature can be unpredictable, this tour is quite risky. Moreover, it seems that the weather often gets rough during the year-end and New Year period.

Also, when there is moonlight, the stars are not very visible. When I participated, it was just after sunset, around the first quarter moon, which created poor conditions for stargazing. If you expect a sky full of stars, it's best to check whether the moon is out just after sunset.

There are a total of seven companies offering the Mauna Kea summit tour, five of which are Japanese companies, and the remaining two are American companies, so most of the tourists at the summit are either Japanese or from English-speaking countries. Due to the thin air, you may feel quite dizzy, but since most of the journey to the summit is by car, even those who are not confident in their physical strength can participate. Note that the summit can drop below freezing. While there is a rental service for cold-weather gear, you will need to prepare your own as well. Hand warmers may not get very warm due to the thin air.

Children under 12 are not recommended to participate due to the potential risk of accidents caused by oxygen deprivation. However, locals were seen enjoying sledding and skiing with quite small children...

このツアーは天気が悪くなると、山頂まで行くことができません。星空も見えません。つまり、何の意味もない時間を過ごすことになります。その場合の返金は１５ドル。自然はままならないものとはいえ、なかなかリスキーなツアーです。しかも毎年、年末年始は天候が荒れることが多いそうです。

また、月明かりがあると星があまりきれいに見えません。
私が参加したときは上弦の月をこえたあたり、つまり日没直後ちょうど南中する、星空観望には悪条件でした。満天の星空を期待するなら、日没直後に月が出ているか、調べておいたほうがいいでしょう。

マウナケア山頂ツアーは合計７社が催行しておりそのうち５社が日本の会社、残り２社はアメリカの会社ということで、山頂は日本人か英語圏の観光客がほとんど。酸素が薄いため、かなりふらつきますが、山頂まではほぼ車中なので、体力に自信のない人でも参加可能です。なお山頂は、氷点下になります。防寒着の貸出はありますが、自前でも防寒着を用意する必要があります。カイロも酸素が薄いため、あまり熱くなりません。

１２歳以下の子どもは、万が一にでも酸欠による事故が起きた時、障害が残る可能性があるため推奨されないそうです。ローカルは結構小さな子どもを連れて、ソリやスキーを楽しんでいましたが……。

Reviewed by: リゾート大好きファミリー

Since I had never ridden a horse before, both my children (a fourth grader and a third-year middle school student) and I were very anxious. However, after listening to the instructions and getting on the horse, we quickly got the hang of it and started to enjoy ourselves. There were some unexpected moments, like when the horse started eating grass or when it almost got into a fight with the horse in front of it, but those became fun memories as well. The horses for the kids were honest and serious, so they managed to ride them without any issues. The mountain scenery was beautiful, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience.

乗馬をしたことがなかったので、私も子供たち(小４と中３)もとても不安でしたが、説明を聞いてから馬に乗ってみると、すんなりと進んでいくので、だんだんと慣れて、楽しくなってきました。途中で草を食べてしまったり、前の馬にくっついてしまってけんかになりかけたり、、とハプニングもありましたが、それもまた、楽しい思い出となりました。子供たちの馬は、素直で真面目な馬だったので、問題なく、乗りこなしていました。山の風景がとても素敵で、最高に良い経験でした。

A highly satisfying tour. 大満足のツアー

Reviewed by: 家族連れ

This was my second time on a dolphin swimming tour in Hawaii, but the experience on the Big Island far surpassed my previous one. Following the guide's instructions, a pod of about 50 dolphins came close to us repeatedly. The location of the dolphins changes daily, and on the day we participated, the guide had confirmed in advance that they were near the harbor. Therefore, we didn't have to search for them by boat.

We encountered the dolphins shortly after departing from the harbor, allowing us to swim with them for a long time, even after other boats had left. I could clearly hear the dolphins' calls underwater.

Both the guide and the boat captain were very proficient in Japanese, so there was no language barrier. They provided wetsuits, fins, and masks, making it enjoyable even for those who are not confident swimmers. Our third grader had a great time as well.

I highly recommend this experience if you visit the Big Island.

ハワイでのイルカと泳ぐツアーは2回目でしたが、ここハワイ島での体験は前回の経験をはるかに凌駕する素晴らしいものでした。
ガイドさんの教えの通りにしていると、約50頭の群れが何度も何度も近くへ寄って来てくれました。毎日イルカのいる場所は変わるそうで、私たちが参加した日は、ハーバーから近いところにイルカがいることをガイドさんが事前に確認してくれていました。そのため、ボートでイルカを捜しまわることもありませんでした。
ハーバーを出港してあっという間にイルカに遭遇出来たため、そこから時間一杯まで、他のボートがいなくなってもたっぷりイルカと泳がせていただけました。イルカの鳴き声も水中でしっかり聞こえました。
ガイドさん、ボートのキャプテン共に日本語が大変お上手なため、言葉の心配はありませんし、ウェットスーツとフィン、マスクなど一式貸してもらえるので、泳ぎが苦手な方でも十分楽しめると思います。わが家の小学3年生も十分enjoyしていました。
ハワイ島を訪れた際には、ぜひ、経験されることをおすすめします。

Big Island Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour Adventure on a Hawaiian Sailing Canoe

Manta Ray Night Snorkel

Reviewed by: D & L Williams

For those who love the water and its fascinating creatures, we highly recommend this activity aboard the Hawaiian Sailing Canoe. The canoe is a modern replica seating a limited number of passengers, so the skipper Dave knew our names immediately. But much like going to a "modern" zoo, you may see what you're looking for the first time out but you may not. Our first night snorkel was at 8:30pm, and while the groups before and after us had a grand "show" we were skunked. But Dave said we could keep coming back (for free!) until we sighted the mantas. The next night at 9:30pm we were in luck, and were treated to a 45 minute water ballet by two mantas that glided and turned just inches beneath our illuminated surfboard. For optimum warmth bring your own full-length wetsuit instead of using their wetsuit tops.

It's unbelievable that, like other tour companies, they do not require life jackets at night on the sea. The return trip is completely in darkness. As someone with a boating license, I must say that if something were to happen, the staff alone would not be able to rescue all participants. I raise this alarm before any precious lives are lost. The boat's rocking is also severe, so pregnant women should refrain from participating. Since it's cold in December, warm drinks would have been better on board. I did see manta rays, and aside from that, I think it was good.

他の催行会社にも言えることですが、信じられない事に夜間の海でライフジャケットを着用させません。復路は全くの暗闇です。船舶免許保持者から言わせてもらうと、万一の事が有ればスタッフだけでは全ての参加者の人命救助できないでしょう。尊い犠牲が出る前に警鐘を鳴らさせていただきます。ボートの揺れも激しいので妊婦は参加見合わせすべきですね。１２月の寒い時期ですので船上では暖かい飲み物の方が良かったとおもいます。マンタも見れましたし、それ以外は良いと思います。

When I arrived just before the reception time, there was already quite a long line. There are reserved seats, and since I ended up in the back, I recommend arriving earlier if you want to sit closer to the front. The buffet food was tastier than I expected. Guests are guided in order from the front. It was very impressive to see the sunset over the ocean from my seat before the show started. The show features modern hula, traditional hula, Polynesian dance, and fire dance. There is a scene in the middle of the show to celebrate birthdays and honeymoons, so it might be good to let them know in advance. I felt that the talk between the dances was a bit long, and there seemed to be less dance time. I can't compare it to other luau shows, though... All the dancers were very beautiful. The fire dance was the highlight and very powerful. Children up to 5 years old were free. Overall, I was quite satisfied.

受付時間ギリギリに行ったら、もうすでにかなりの列ができていました。リザーブ席などもあり、後ろの方の席になってしまったので、少しでも前のいい席で見たい方は、受付時間よりも前に並んだ方がいいです。ブッフェの食事は思ったよりは美味しかったです。前から順番に案内されます。ショーが始まる前に、席から海に沈む夕日が見れたのがとても印象的でした。ショーは現代フラや古典フラ、ポリネシアンダンスやファイヤーダンスが見れます。ショーの途中でバースデーやハネムーンの人たちをお祝いするシーンがあるので、伝えておくといいのかも？と思いました。ダンスとダンスの間のトークが長くて、ダンス時間が少ないような気がしました。他のルアウショーとくらべていないので比較はできませんが…
ダンサーさんはみなさんとてもきれいな方たちでした。ファイヤーダンスが一番の見もので大迫力でした。
5歳までの子供は無料でした。全体的には、概ね満足です。

This tour was AWESOME! Adam and Jim were incredible and we feel lucky to have had them as our guides.

Our guides made our 12 hours together seem too short and they went above and beyond to make our day the best ever. Both were extremely knowledgeable about virtually any Hawaiian subject. They picked us up precisely on time and we started our day. We were taken to a lava flow surrounded by mountains that went on as far as the eye could see. Just our first stop of seeing mother nature at its finest. We continued on to a park for a gourmet box lunch that was obviously freshly made and to get to know our tour mates better. The views and fresh air were wonderful. The Hawaiian gods of weather were certainly shining down on us. Off again for a tour around the quaint town of Hilo where we enjoyed the statue of King Kamehameha and a stop at a candy shop. We then went on to Rainbow Falls with its beautiful waterfall and scenery. We stopped along the way at steam vents from the volcano. Ladies, if you want a facial, that's the place to go. Volcano National Park was amazing. The Visitor Center had a great museum and showed us the history of the crater. This was just a preview as we would return later for a nighttime view. Leaving the crater we visited the naturally formed lava tube used in the filming of the rolling boulder scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark. The ferns at the park were also used as a backdrop for scenes from Jurassic Park. We were treated to dinner at the Kilauea Lodge in Volcano, Hawaii. Fabulous. After dinner we returned to the crater to view the night time glow and star gaze. We were able to get a glimpse of the lava pool where the level varies 100s of feet over a few days' time. Jim talked about the stars and pointed out several constellations. It was definitely a once in a lifetime view. Throughout the entire trip our hosts provided almost continuous commentary on the history, stories, customs, flora and fauna of Hawaii. A total 1st class experience and the highlight of our trip to Hawaii. We would definitely do this tour with them again. Mahalo!

Fantastic tour

Reviewed by: Sudeshna and Sumit

One of the best tours in Hawaii. Our tour guide Adam was very knowledgeable and polite. We did the night viewing of the volcano tour with stargazing. During the entire trip our tour guide shared abundant histories about legends and culture from Hawaii. We stopped for lunch at a very beautiful place near Mauna Loa. Adam(tour guide) baked some delicious cookies for us too :) We covered Rainbow fall, Jagger Museum and the lava tube, out of which viewing the volcano at night was absolutely breath taking.The tour had included dinner at Kilauea Lodge(fine dining) by the volcano national park. Overall our experience with Kailani tours was amazing, we would definitely recommend this tour to all those who visit the Big Island.
