マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供！＜夕食付き／英語ガイド＞by マサシネイチャースクール

I was extremely satisfied with the sunset and starry sky at Mauna Kea. 大満足のマウナケアの夕日と星空

Reviewed by: Hiro

The guides, Konno and Stefan, were very kind and showed us around. The sunset over the sea of clouds from the summit of Mauna Kea was beautiful, and we could faintly see the Kilauea crater along with a sky full of stars. We were also able to see the craters on the moon through a reflecting telescope. Although it was windy and the temperature was low, we brought hand warmers, so we didn't feel too cold.

ガイドの今野さんとステファンさんが親切に案内してくれ、マウナケア山頂からの雲海に沈む夕日とキラウエア火口がほんのり見え、満天の星空がとてもきれいでした。反射望遠鏡で月のクレーターも見えました。風がふいて気温は低かったですが、ホッカイロも持参して寒さ対策は万全でしたので、さほど寒さは感じませんでした。

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＞

The best! ♪ 最高♪

Reviewed by: YUMIKO

On the day of the trip, the sky over Kealakekua Bay was cloudy, but the water temperature was not as cold as I expected, and I was lucky to swim in the clear sea with a large turtle, which made me very satisfied♪

Along the way, I also saw dolphins three times, which was exciting! They were doing spin jumps and were so cute.

The staff spoke English, but they were friendly and kind. I also received an instruction manual in Japanese.

Overall, ocean rafting was amazing♪

Even though we are in our 40s and 50s, we had a great time♪

You might want to bring motion sickness medication.

After snorkeling, as the reviews mentioned, my body got really cold, and I had to give up on the second snorkeling session. On the way back, the wind felt chilly, so I recommend that women wear a thick hoodie or windbreaker, or even layer up.

During rafting, the sun was strong, and the wind hit my eyes, so wearing sunglasses was definitely the right choice.

On the way back, the waves got particularly high, and the boat bounced quite a bit. It was fun in its own way, but it might be tough for those with back issues (this was also mentioned in the Japanese instruction manual).

We drove from the Marriott Hotel, and it was easy to find; it took less than 30 minutes.

This is a tour I highly recommend and would like to use again.

I will definitely use it next time.

当日、ケアラケクア湾方面は曇り空でしたが 水温は想像より冷たくなく、透明度の良い海でラッキーな事に、大きな亀とも一緒に泳げて満足でした♪　

途中、イルカも３度見れてテンション↑スピンジャンプしたり可愛いかったです。

スタッフは英語ですが、愛想も良く優しかったです。日本語の説明書ももらえます。

とにかくオーシャンラフティング最高♪

４０～５０代の私達ですが、大盛り上がりでした♪

酔い止め薬は必須かも。

シュノーケル後、口コミどうり体が冷え切り、寒くて２回目のシュノーケルは断念。帰りは風が冷たく感じるので、女子は厚手のパーカーかウインドブレーカーを１枚と言わず重ね着をお薦めします。

ラフティング中、日差しが強く目にも風が強く当たるのでサングラスをかけてて正解でした。

帰りは特に波が高くなり、かなりボートが跳ねます。それはそれで楽しかったので最高でしたが、腰の悪い方は確かに キツイかも・・・（日本語の説明書にも記載してありましたが）

マリオットホテルからレンタカーで行きましたが、解りやすく３０分も掛かりません。

また利用したいお薦めのツアーです。

次回、また利用します。

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＞

It's good, but... 良いけど・・・

Reviewed by: ミッキーママ

Show: Overall, it was great. The female dancers were very graceful, and I was captivated by them. Unfortunately, I couldn't understand the host's jokes because I don't speak English, which was disappointing. The foreigners around me seemed to be enjoying it and laughing.

Food & Drinks: There were more options than I expected, and the food was quite tasty. The Mai Tai and Lava Flow were delicious. It was an all-you-can-drink, but since I can't drink much... I didn't really feel the benefits of the premium seats. I think it's perfectly fine to go early and get seats in the front row of the regular section. The show does pause several times before it gets dark. If you time it right around sunset, you can go to the left side of the stage near the fence, where you can see the ocean and take beautiful sunset photos through the palm trees!

ショー：全体的に良かったです。ダンサーの女性達がとても優雅で見惚れました。英語が解らなかったので、司会の方のジョークが理解出来ず、残念。周りの外人さん達はウケてて楽しそうでした。料理・ドリンク：想像より種類もあり、普通に美味しかったです。マイタイ・ラバフローが美味しかったです。飲み放題でしたが、そんなに飲めない方なので・・・。プレミアムシートのメリットは特に感じませんでした。早い時間に行って、普通席の前列をゲットでぜんぜん良いと思います。ショーは、暗くなるまでに何度か中断します。サンセットタイムで日の入りが近くなった頃を見計らい、ステージに向かって左側のフェンスの方まで行くと海が見え、ヤシの木越しの とても綺麗なサンセットの写真が撮れますよ♪

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＞

Fun snorkeling even for beginners. 初めてでも楽しいシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: MISO

At 60 years old, my spouse and I participated. It was our first time snorkeling, and I was worried about our age, but we signed up after being encouraged by comments from those with experience. We were the only Japanese participants, but the staff and other participants were kind, so we managed even without understanding English.

We received a Japanese instruction manual in advance for the history and location, as well as how to use the snorkel and goggles, but we left without having time to read it. The snorkeling experience was sufficient with just a brief lesson from the instructor. Apparently, Kealakekua Bay is the best snorkeling spot on the Big Island, and there were so many types of fish and coral that we could have watched them forever. I was surprised by the size of the purple sea urchins and the black sea urchins. We were also able to see dolphins perfectly. The rafting on the military rubber boat was thrilling, and I was very satisfied. We made wonderful memories.

However, you really need to be careful about sunburn. Once you get on the rubber boat, you can't let go of the ropes, so it's essential to apply sunscreen all over your body before boarding. I forgot to apply it on the underside of my feet and ended up with a bad sunburn on my unprotected calves. I brought a cream-type sunscreen from Japan, but all the foreign participants were using spray sunscreen. There are super strong sprays with SPF 100 available, so I recommend buying sunscreen locally. It's a good idea to read the instructions, consider the time needed to apply sunscreen perfectly, and check in early. I would like to participate again when I come to the Big Island.

６０歳、夫婦で参加しました。シュノーケリングは初めてだし年齢的にも心配しましたが、参加経験者のコメントに後押しされ申込しました。日本人は我々２人だけでしたが、スタッフも他の参加者の方々も親切にしてくれたので、英語はわからなくても何とかなりました。

歴史や場所について、シュノーケルやメガネの使い方は、日本語の説明書を事前にくれましたが、読む間もなく出発。シュノーケリングは、インストラクターのワンポイントレッスンだけでも十分でした。アラケクア湾はハワイ島で一番のシュノーケリングポイントらしいですが、魚も珊瑚も種類が多く、いつまで見ていても飽きません。ムラサキウニやバフンウニが大きいことにびっくり。イルカもバッチリ見ることができました。軍用ゴムボートでのラフティングもスリルがあり、大満足。楽しい思い出ができました。

しかし、日焼けには本当に注意が必要です。ゴムボートに乗ってからは、ロープから手を離せなくなるので、乗船前に日焼け止めを全身に塗ることが必須です。私は、足の裏側に塗り忘れ失敗しました。シュノーケリング中に、無防備だったふくらはぎがひどく日焼けしてしまいました。私の日焼け止めは日本から持参したクリームタイプですが、外国の参加者は皆さんスプレー式の日焼け止めを使っていました。SPF100という超強力スプレーもあるので、日焼け止めは現地で買うのがお薦めです。説明書を読み、日焼け止めを完璧に塗る時間を考え、早めにチェックインするのが良いですね。また、ハワイ島に来たら参加したいと思います。

プライベートチャーター　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー！GoProレンタルあり＜午前／日本語ガイド＞

It became my best memory of the trip to Hawaii! ハワイ旅行一番の思い出になりました！

Reviewed by: 4人で参加

I wanted to show my 10-year-old daughter dolphins on the Big Island, so we joined this optional tour. We tried three times and encountered large groups of dolphins each time.

It was my first time snorkeling, but with the support of Daisuke and Yuko, I was able to challenge myself with confidence. We kept encountering groups of dolphins, and I was constantly amazed by the wild dolphins I was seeing for the first time. I became quite exhausted after the second round, and I apologize to the M family who joined us. (I'm sorry, M family...)

Honestly, I didn't expect to see so many dolphins, so I was truly moved! As a bonus, we were lucky enough to see whales before encountering the dolphins, making it a lucky day.

I chose this optional tour based on other people's experiences, and it was definitely the right choice! Daisuke's love for dolphins is really passionate and impressive.

Lastly, thank you to Taka for being a conversation partner for my mother. She didn't go snorkeling, but she said she could see a lot from the boat and had a great time.

Thank you so much!

ハワイ島で10歳の娘にイルカを見せてあげたいと思い、このオプショナルツアーに参加しました。3回トライして、3回とも沢山のイルカの群れに出会うことができました。
シュノーケリング初めてでしたが、ダイスケさん、ユウコさんのサポートで安心してチャレンジできました。次から次へとイルカの群れに遭遇し、初めて見る野生のイルカたちに感動しっぱなしでした。私は2回目終了後グロッキーになってしまい、一緒に参加していたMさん一家にはご迷惑おかけしました。(Mさん一家、すみません…)
正直こんなに沢山のイルカに出会えるとは思ってなかったので、ほんとに感動しました！
おまけに、イルカに遭遇する前にクジラの姿も見ることができて、ラッキーな一日でした。
他の方の体験談を参考にこのオプショナルツアーを選びましたが、大正解でした！ダイスケさんのイルカ愛、ほんとにアツくて、凄いです。
最後にタカさん、母の話し相手役、ありがとうございました。母は潜らなかったのですが、船上からでも沢山見えたようで、楽しかったと言ってました。

マンタ大学夜学部　野生のマンタ＆ナイトシュノーケリングツアー ＜送迎可／日本語スタッフ乗船日あり＞ *48時間前までキャンセル無料

No manta rays appeared. マンタ現れず

Reviewed by: kazuchann

The Japanese guide spoke brokenly and had difficulty communicating. The participants were just my spouse and another young woman who seemed to speak English well, so there didn't seem to be any issues there. However, even though we were in Hawaii, it wasn't warm after the sun set, and the manta rays didn't appear. We had to float in the water for a long time waiting, and the only item to warm our chilled bodies was a single blanket. There seemed to be hot cocoa available if you didn't get seasick, but I felt nauseous and couldn't accept it. I was invited to join again the next day for free since I couldn't see anything, but I declined. To be honest, I wanted a refund for the participation fee. I felt unwell throughout the trip and couldn't enjoy my meals, and planning the manta night at the beginning of the trip was a mistake. As a professional, they should have considered the sea conditions and the needs of older guests better. The guide was overly excited and it became awkward.

日本語ガイドは片言で会話も不自由、参加者は私たち夫婦ともう一人若い女性でその方は英語が話せるようで問題なさそうでしたが、うねりがあってハワイといっても日が沈むと暖かくはなくマンタが現れないので、海の中に長い時間漂って待、冷えきった身体を温めるアイテムもブランケット一枚。船酔いでなければホットココアがあったようですが、吐き気がして受け付けません。見る事ができなかったので翌日無料で参加できますと誘われたけど、断ってきました。はっきりって参加費返してもらいたいくらいでした。旅行中ずっとグワイが悪くて、食事も美味しく食べる事ができず旅行の最初にマンタナイトを計画したのが間違いでした。プロなんだから海の状況でマンタが現れないとか、高年齢のお客への配慮が足りない。ガイドだけが勝手にキャキャハイテンションでしらけてしまった。

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

A fun time 楽しい時間

Reviewed by: ピロちゃん

I had seen Waipi'o Valley from above, but next time, I definitely want to ride through the valley, as my husband hopes. We were a Japanese couple among the foreign participants. It was a fun time, leisurely riding through the forest and sometimes splashing across the river. When a foreigner spurred their horse, mine reacted and charged into the river at an incredible speed—it was truly surprising! Since it was my second time riding, I held onto the reins tightly, worried about letting go, and I was relieved that nothing happened. (My husband was also worried he might fall off!) Next time, a buggy ride sounds interesting too!

ワイピオ渓谷を上から眺めた事は有ったけど、次回は是非渓谷を乗馬でと言う主人の希望で参加外国人の方達に日本人のカップルと私達夫婦でした。
林の中をゆったりと時には川もザブザブと渡りながらの楽しい時間でした。
外国人の方が自分の馬をけしかけ、それに私の乗った馬が反応し、すごい勢いで川に突進して
いった時は本当にビックリ！二度目の乗馬だったので、手綱を離すものかと握りしめ何事も
無くてホッとしましたが。（主人も落馬するかとヒヤッとしたそうです！）

I was moved by the sight of Earth's shadow for the first time! 初めて見た地球の影に感動！

Reviewed by: よなが

The young guides took a lot of photos for us. The service that allows you to download photos from the blog later is really great!

We experienced so many wonderful colors of the Earth, like the rainbow we saw from the car, the sunset from the mountain top, the shadow of the Earth and the rainbow-colored gradient sky that can only be seen just after the sun sets, and finally, the starry sky and the moon...

I had a happy time listening to the explanation of the constellations while lying on the ground. It was very helpful that they pointed out the stars with a laser, making it easy to understand their positions.

They also provided a telescope, and after seeing Jupiter with its two lines and its surrounding satellites, I was thrilled to see the moon with its clearly visible craters. Next time, if I have the opportunity to participate, I would like to join during a time when there are many stars visible with less moonlight.

It was a tour that allowed us to fully enjoy the great nature of Hawaii. My nephew, who participated with me, is saying he wants to go back to the Big Island. I'm sure it has become an unforgettable memory.

Thank you very much to all the guides.

若いお二人のガイドさんがたくさん写真を撮ってくださいました。
後日、ブログから写真がダウンロードできるというサービスはとても良いですね！

車の中から見た虹、山頂から見た夕日、日が沈んが直後にだけ見ることのできる地球の影と虹色グラデーションの空、そして最後に見た星空と月・・・。本当にいろいろな素晴らしい地球の色を体感させていただきました。

地面に寝っ転がりながら星座の説明を聞かせていただき幸せな時間を過ごさせて頂きました。
レーザーで指し示していただいたので星の位置がわかり大変よかったと思います。

望遠鏡も用意していただき、2筋のラインが入った木星と木星の周りの衛星を見た後、クレーターのはっきり見える月を見て感激しました。

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

Refreshing! 爽快！

Reviewed by: のもてぃ

We participated as a family in mid-March. To enter the Waipi'o Valley, you can go by car, horse-drawn carriage, four-wheeler, or horseback. Since our child wasn't old enough to drive a buggy, we chose to ride horses. It was our family's first horseback riding experience, lasting about two hours, and we were able to enjoy it with peace of mind. The weather was great, making it a perfect day.

After checking in, we browsed some nearby souvenirs until it was time to depart. First, we took a large 4WD van from the top of the valley down to the horse stable office. This road was quite steep, and it seemed like only a 4WD could make it up. At one point, the vehicle almost got stuck while crossing a small river.

Two hours of horseback riding felt just right. Any longer, and I think my backside would have been in pain. There were nine participants in total: three from Europe and America, two from Asia, and our family of four. The instructions were in English, but surprisingly, the basics of handling the horse were easy enough for children to understand. There was also a discussion about helmets, and since they weren't required by the waiver, the kids were fine without them. Our family was very satisfied with our first horseback riding experience. It was exhilarating to have the horse move according to our will. At first, I was so focused on handling the horse that I didn't notice the scenery, but as I got used to it, I was able to fully enjoy the deep nature of Waipi'o.

I was surprised to learn that there are people living at the bottom of the valley. The instructor mentioned that she lived there as a child and commuted to school from there every day. She said her grandmother still lives there. Occasionally, we saw people walking, and greeting them from horseback made me feel a bit important, which was nice (laughs).

The price was reasonable, and we joined from Kona, enjoying the drive along the way. I highly recommend this tour. It was also great to see the buildings from the movie "Honeymoon in Hawaii" in the nearby town of Honokaa.

By the way, the horse I rode, named Paul, was a bit of a troublemaker. I think he probably got scolded the most by the instructor. It wasn't my riding skills, I swear—probably (laughs).

3月中頃に家族で参加してきました。
ワイピオの渓谷内に踏み入るには、車か馬車か4輪バギーか馬。
子供がバギーを運転できる年齢ではなかったので馬にしました。
約二時間の家族4人初乗馬体験でしたが安心して楽しめました。
天気も良く、最高の一日となりました。

受付を済ませ、近接したお土産物を見ているうちに出発時間。
まずは大きな４ＷＤのバンで渓谷の上から下の馬小屋事務所まで。
この道もすごい崖で4WD以外はちょっと登れなくなりそう。
途中、小さな川を渡るときも車がはまりかけました。

乗馬の2時間もちょうどいいかな。これ以上だとお尻が悲鳴をあげそうです。
参加人数は、9人でした。内欧米人が3人、アジア系が2人と我が家の4名。
説明は英語でしたが意外と基本の馬の扱いは簡単で、子供でも乗り方は十分理解できます。
何度か話題になってるヘルメットも誓約書に要らないとすれば子供もかぶらずにOKでしたよ。
初めての乗馬に家族も大満足。馬が自分の意思どおりに動くのは快感です。
前半は馬の扱いに夢中で景色に気が回りませんでしたが、慣れてくるとワイピオの深い大自然を堪能できました。

びっくりしたのは渓谷の下にも住んでいる人がいること。
インストラクターのお姉さんも子供のころは渓谷の下に住んでいて毎日そこから学校に
通っていたそうです。おばあちゃんは今でも住んでるって言ってた。
たまに歩いてる人がいるんだけど、馬の上から挨拶するとちょっと自分が偉くなったようで
気分がよかったです(笑)

お値段も安いし、KONAから参加したんですが途中のドライブもいい感じだし、
お勧めのツアーですね。
近くにあるホノカア（昔、ホノカアボーイという映画の舞台になった）の町で
映画の建物を見れたのも良かったです。

ちなみに私が乗ったポールという馬はちょっと暴れん坊でした。
たぶんインストラクターのお姉さんに一番怒られてたんじゃないかな。
私の乗馬の技術のせいではないですよ～、たぶん(笑)

It's been decades since I last went into the ocean (laughs). No need to worry, it's all good.
Even if you can't swim well, they will guide you to the points.
Thanks to the attentive care of the staff, I was able to meet the dolphins.

It seems that there was a massive occurrence that day (is that the right expression?)...
Daisuke and the staff said, "Don't expect to see this many dolphins all the time. It's a rare day when this happens a few times a year!"
It was a series of great excitement.
I was thrilled to see the dolphins dancing and even flying above the water's surface (about 2 meters away)!
I wished I could swim freely.
I was also able to hear the dolphins' calls.

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ 　2階建てカタマラン船に乗って壮大なクジラの姿を観察！＜12～3月／軽食付き／英語ガイド／カイルアコナ発＞

Whale Watching Cruise from Kailua-Kona by Body Glove / Recommended Plan ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ＜カイルアコナ発＞ by ボディ・グローブ号 / おすすめプラン

Reviewed by: Kenny

I was told that the ship had already departed when I arrived at Ticket Street at 2 PM. I was surprised. The receptionist felt sorry and changed my reservation to a dinner cruise starting later that night, but it was a few hours later, and since I wanted to go whale watching, it felt like a waste. It was disappointing.

ここは、チケット通りの午後2時に行ったら、何んと船が出港済みですと言われました。びっくりでした。受付の人が気の毒がって、夜からスタートのディナークルーズに変えてくれましたが、数時間後スタートであり、且つ、自分が行きたかったのはホエールウォッチだったので、無駄にしました。残念でした。

Mauna Kea マウナケア

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The night sky is beautiful while stargazing, but the cold is gradually seeping in. I'm thrilled that they took pictures of the moon with a telescope. The dinner bento was delicious.

星空観測中、夜空はきれいだけど、だんだんと寒さがしみてきます。
月を望遠鏡で撮ってくれて、感激です。
晩御飯のお弁当、おいしかったです。

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Dinner - Hawaii Forest & Trail

Great Tour

Reviewed by: DanV

This tour was great including the tour guide Greg

The only part that was not good was the food. The food was terrible. There must be a place closer that make much better food.

A must-visit at least once! 一度は行くべき!

Reviewed by: TANI

The main purpose of this trip was the "Sunset & Stargazing at the Summit of Mauna Kea." Although I had heard various stories from those who have been there, the incredible experience can only be truly understood by seeing it with your own eyes and experiencing it with your own body!

We planned our trip to coincide with the "new moon." (I later heard that it’s not something to worry too much about.)

Since we would be driving on mountain roads, if you are prone to motion sickness, motion sickness medication is a must-have item. They provide warm clothing, but it might also be good to bring a portable hand warmer. The bento was delicious, and having warm drinks like miso soup and cocoa was a nice touch!

During the star explanation, I was looking up for so long that my neck started to hurt (laughs). Seeing others lying down made me think I should have done that from the start. The explanations with the laser pointer were very clear and helpful.

Thank you, Mr. Konno and Stefan!

今回の旅行の第一目的だった『マウナケア山頂のサンセット&天体観測』。
行った事のある人たちから色々と話は聞いていたものの、やはり「自分の目」で見て「自分の体で体験」しないと言葉では伝わらない凄さ!!

私達は、「新月」にあわせて旅行の日程を決めました。(後で聞いたのですが、あまり気にしなくても大丈夫のようで)

山道を走行するので、車に酔う方は「酔い止め」は、必須アイテム。
防寒着は、用意してくださっていますが「携帯カイロ」も持って行くと良いかも。
お弁当も美味しく、お味噌汁、ココア他温かい飲み物も嬉しい‼

星の説明の時、ずっと上を向いていたので首が痛くなってしまいました(笑)
寝っころがっている方がいるのを見て、はじめから寝てれば良かったと思いました。
レーザーペンでの説明は、とてもわかりやすく良かったです。

今野さん、ステファン ありがとうございましたm(__)m

Hawaii Zipline Tours - Big Island Waterfall & Rainforest Zip Adventure

Amazing

Reviewed by: Anita

I wanted to do something exciting for my partners birthday this year. I found this searching the net and thought it would be an awesome experience for both of us whilst on our first holiday together and it was all that and more. The team were super friendly, professional and helpful, making this an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone venturing to the Big Island. Exciting, slightly frightening (sometimes you have to do things that scare you a little...) and a great way to take in all the beautiful surrounding of Hawaii. Hilo was truly beautiful, even if it was a little damp.

I've never seen such a vibrant star! こんなに鮮やかな星、見たこと無い！

Reviewed by: Operacko

I have done stargazing before, but this was the best. The guide, Ms. Ha, explained the stars with her extensive knowledge, making it easy to understand. First, we enjoyed the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds from the snowy mountaintop. I observed the mysterious colors of the sky with my own eyes. After it got dark, I looked up at the stars filling the sky, recalling the knowledge I learned in school, and we talked about constellations, the universe, and various topics. It was very cold, but thanks to my ski wear, I was completely warm. However, using the restroom at the mountaintop was quite a challenge with all the layers... I guess men wouldn't understand... I want to come back to Hawaii Island to see the summer constellations again.

今までにも、星空観測をしたことはあったけれど、ここは最高でした。
満点の星を、ガイドの葉さんが豊富な知識で説明してくださって、よく分かりました。
まず、雪景色の山頂で、雲海に沈む夕陽を観賞。
神秘的な空の色の移ろいを、自分の目でしっかりと観察。
暗くなってからは、空いっぱいに広がる星を見上げ、学校で習った知識を思い出しながら、星座、宇宙、もろもろの話へと。
とても寒かったけれど、防寒は、スキーウェア上下のおかげで完全でした。ただ、山頂でのトイレは、着ぶくれしていて大変でした…男性には分からないだろうけれど…
夏の星座を見に、またハワイ島に来たくなりました。

Hawaii Zipline Tours - Big Island Waterfall & Rainforest Zip Adventure

Great experience, great group of people (Eco)

Reviewed by: Robert

The zipline trip was a lot of fun. The views were great. Zipping over or past a couple of waterfalls was cool.
We happened to be there when the owners/bosses were out trying some new things. They took time to talk to us and genuinely solicited feedback that would make this and other tours more enjoyable. They were as friendly and personable as our excellent guides, Tim and Nainoa, jumping in to take photos, check on us to make sure we were having a good time, and to provide local information. Sure, they want more business, but also wanted to make sure we had enough fun that we would be repeat business as well. I'm sold. I highly recommend this zip for anyone looking to have some fun and excitement, see some cool scenery, and chat with a couple of locals.
If you go in realizing this is not constant action, you will enjoy this trip. Remember, it does take time to clip and unclip a group of people, one by one. But, take this time to talk to the guides and other members of the group, and those wait times pass by quickly...plus, you can get some fun stories or facts from the guides. Several of the stops have great views, as well.

Thank you for the valuable experience! 貴重な体験ありがとう(^.^)

Reviewed by: J.O

After several years, there was nearly one meter of snowfall at the summit, and access to the area had been restricted until the day of the tour, which was fortunate. Moreover, it turned out to be a mild day for winter. At the snow-covered summit, there were a few brave souls enjoying snowboarding. From the summit, where you can even see Maui in the distance, the sunset changed its expression moment by moment, visible beyond the observatory. The starry sky was, of course, magnificent, and I hope to see the summer Milky Way and constellations on my next visit.

数年ぶりに山頂に1メートル近い積雪があり、前日まで山頂付近には入山ができなかったが、ツアーの当日から入山が可能になるという幸運。しかも冬としては穏やかな日になりました。積雪で一面の雪景色の山頂ではスノーボードを楽しむ猛者もチラホラ。遠くマウイ島も見える山頂から刻一刻と表情を変える夕日が天文台の彼方に望むことができました。星空は言うまでもなく素晴らしく、次回に訪れる時には夏の天の川と星座を見たいです。
