Wonderful sky. すばらしい空

Reviewed by: てん

My First Time on the Big Island of Hawaii
I participated because I wanted to fully enjoy nature.

Sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea
Due to the elevation, the wind was strong, and even with a sweater, a parka, and the ski gear I borrowed, along with gloves and a hat, it was still cold when the wind blew. However, the beauty of the sunset I saw amidst that was breathtaking. I was completely captivated by the changes in the sky that I couldn't take my eyes off for even a moment.

The starry sky was a bit lower from the summit, but there were so many stars that I thought there might be even more than in a planetarium. The guide's explanations were clear and interesting.

Of course, the constellations visible change with the seasons.

I definitely want to participate again at a different time of year.

初めてのハワイ島
自然を満喫したくて参加しました。

マウナケア山頂からのサンセット
標高があるために、風が強く、セーターにパーカーそしてお借りした上下のスキーウエア―みたいな防寒具、手袋帽子と完全防寒でも風が吹くと冷たかったです。
しかしその中で見た夕日のきれいなこと
ほんとに一瞬も見逃せない空の変化に、見とれるばかりでした。

星空は山頂から少し下りましたが、プラネタリウムよりもいっぱいの星があるんじゃないかと思うくらい、星だらけ。
ガイドさんの説明もわかりやすく、面白かったです。

当たり前ですが、季節が変われば見える星座も変わります。

ぜひ時期を変えてもう一度参加したいです。

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

The great nature has... 大自然には・・・

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated with my husband. As we are approaching 50, we had some concerns about our health, but we joined with the approval of our family doctor. We were eager to see the scenery we had longed for, so we decided to participate.

I was so excited that I worried about motion sickness and took some anti-nausea medication, which turned out to be a mistake. I felt fine overall, but I was incredibly sleepy! I was told, "You can't sleep here~," and while sipping water, I somehow managed to get through it. If you usually don't get motion sickness, I think you might not need to take anything, as the bumpy road is over quickly (just my personal opinion).

We came to see the breathtaking sunset at Mauna Kea, but it was covered in thick clouds (tears). At the summit, our guide was chatting with guides from other companies, and we ended up not knowing what was happening during the sunset (tears). The stars were also cruelly hidden by the pesky clouds.

The stargazing took place at a parking area slightly lower than the summit (with no restrooms), and whether it was due to drinking too much water or the altitude, both my husband and I found ourselves needing the restroom frequently. We had used the facilities at the Onizuka Center and the makeshift restroom at the summit, but stargazing turned into a battle with our bladders. As the clouds gradually thinned and we finally started to see the stars, it was time to leave.

On the way back at the Onizuka Center, I was finally able to use the restroom, and when I looked up at that moment, the sky was filled with stars (tears). That day, all the tours were fully booked, and the Onizuka Center was very crowded, but I wished everyone could have been let down a bit longer to enjoy the starry sky. I think stargazing is better at the Onizuka Center, which has restrooms... Nature and our body's natural reactions are unbeatable! I'll save this experience for my next adventure.

主人と参加しました。
私たちは５０を手前にして、少々体調の心配もありましが、かかりつけ医のＯＫのもと参加しました。どうしても見ておきたい景色にあこがれいざ参加。
ドキドキわくわくで気合がはいりすぎたのか、乗り物酔いが心配になり、酔い止め薬を飲んだのがまずかった。体調は全然大丈夫なのだけど、とにかく眠い！！「ここから寝てはいけませんよ~」と言われて水をちょびちょびのみながら、何とかのりきりました。普段乗り物酔いをしないのなら道が悪いのはあっという間なので（個人的意見ですが）飲まなくてもいいかもって思いました。命がけであこがれのマウナケアサンセットの景色と星を見に来たのに厚い雲に覆われて（涙）山頂では、ガイドさんは他社のガイドさんとお話をされておられ、何がなんだかわからぬままのサンセット（涙）星もにっくき雲にいじわるされました。星空観測は、山頂から少し下がった駐車スペース（トイレなし）での観測でしたが、水の飲みすぎか気圧のせいか私も主人もトイレがものすごく近くなり、（行きのオニヅカセンターでも、山頂の簡易トイレでもちゃんと行ったのですが）観測はトイレとの戦いです。雲もだんだん薄くなってきてやっと星が見えはじめたころに退散です。帰りのオニヅカセンターでやっとトイレができ、その時空を見上げると満天の星（涙）その日はどこのツアーもいっぱいで、オニヅカセンターは大変込み合っていましたが、せっかくならみんな降ろしてあげてやっと満天になった星空もう少し見せてもらえたらって思いました。やはり星の観測はトイレのあるオニヅカセンターのほうがいいかもっ・・・大自然と体の自然現象にはかなわないですね！次の楽しみにとっておきます。

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧　水～土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能＜フライト100分／英語パイロット／ワイコロアヘリポート＞

I was able to ride it on my second attempt. 再チャレンジで乗れました

Reviewed by: 小春ばぁちゃん

On the second day in Hawaii, I had a reservation, but it was canceled due to bad weather in Hilo (tears). It was disappointing since Waikoloa had nice weather. Due to my schedule, the only available day was the checkout day, so I rescheduled it as that was my last chance. On the final day, while waiting nervously, I was told it was okay to go today.

For those with flexible schedules, I recommend making reservations as early as possible, and if the tour is canceled due to weather, it's good to have a backup date.

Now, the actual flight was amazing. Unfortunately, the volcano was in a state of calm, so I couldn't see the dynamic lava flows or ocean entry, but I could see lava from a hole in the ground! I also saw black streaks that made me think lava was flowing underground, which was both exciting and a bit scary. It was great to see the charm of Hawaii Island's green lava landscape from the sky. However, since it was an English tour, I didn't understand most of the explanations, but even without them, seeing the scenery in front of me was more than enough to enjoy.

I participated with my 4-year-old and 1-year-old, and the kids were satisfied too!

ハワイ島２日目に予約していましたが、
ヒロの天候が悪いとのことで、催行中止に（涙）
ワイコロアが良いお天気な分残念でした。
日程的にチェックアウトの日しか予定があいていなかったので、その日がラストチャンスということで振り替えをしました。
最終日、どきどきしながら待っていると、今日はＯＫと言ってくれました。
日程に余裕がある人は、できるだけ日程の前の方に予約をしれて、
もし天候で催行されなくても振り替え予備日を設けておくと良いとおもいます。

さて、実際のフライトは、すばらしかったです。
残念ながら火山は小康状態だったので溶岩の流出やオーシャンエントリーというダイナミックな状態はみれませんでしたが
大地にぽっかり開いた穴から溶岩がみえました！
おそらく地中を流れているなと思わせる黒い筋もみえて
嬉しさと怖さ？とでぞくぞくとしました。
その他島の緑溶岩の大地というハワイ島の魅力を空からみれたのもよかったです。
ただ、英語ツアーだったので、説明の大部分がわからなかったのですが
それでも、説明がなくても百聞は一見にしかず、で
やはり目の前に広がる景色で充分楽しめました。

４歳と１歳の子ども連れで参加したのですが
子ども達も満足していましたよ

I was moved! 感動しました！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea was truly wonderful and moving, just as I had expected! Before joining the tour, I was worried about feeling unwell due to the altitude of 4,200 meters, but it was fine as we acclimated along the way.

For stargazing, since it was just before a full moon, we couldn't see many stars, but we were able to view Saturn with its rings and the crescent-shaped Venus through the reflecting telescope. We also saw the moonlight reflecting off the sea of clouds, shining brightly. It was a great memory to have the moon, as seen through the reflecting telescope, captured by my own camera. Next time, I would like to join during a new moon to see a sky full of stars.

マウナケア山頂のサンセットは　期待どおり　素晴らしく　感動しました！
ツアーに参加する前は　標高4200メートルまで上がるので、具合が悪くならないか　心配しましたが、途中で　身体を慣らしながら上がるので、大丈夫でした。

星空観測は　満月直前だったので、やはり　あまりたくさんの星は見られませんでしたが、反射望遠鏡で、本当に輪が周りにある土星や、三日月型の金星を見せて頂いたり、月の光が雲海に反射し白く輝いているのも見られました。
反射望遠鏡で見た月を　自分のカメラで撮影して頂けたのも　とても良い記念になりました。
今度は　満天の星空を見るため、新月の時に　参加したいと思いました。

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's

Great staff!

Reviewed by: bigislandgurl

Felt like a tourist but I got to do things I never did before like jump off that high cliff and kayak on my own. It was a LOT of work for me. If you've never done it, go with a double kayak. It's a little easier. The sea caves were non-existent. We only got 2 feet near a small little opening in the rock. The snorkeling was good. I rated the trip 4 stars only because of our guide who was really understanding and encouraging when it came to handling the fact that my daughter's boyfriend could not swim. It was because of our guide, I think his name is Brent, that John became daring enough to snorkel off the kayak and get help getting onto the rocks where he was able to relax a little and enjoy the snacks. The jump off the cliff is scary but fun to brag about afterwards. It was worth it for the experience of paddling a kayak on the open ocean but thank heaven the water wasn't rough when we went!

Since it was just the two of us ladies participating, it had been decades since I last entered the ocean, and I was really worried about my physical stamina. However, once we joined, it turned out to be just us and the instructors, Kevin and Noni, so we could truly relax and float in the vast sea.

I was also concerned about my first experience with snorkeling, but somehow I managed to do it well and got to see beautiful fish. We took a lot of photos, which were sent to us via email.

It was truly a wonderful view and a fun experience, creating great memories. Additionally, I was relieved to spend time talking in Japanese with Kevin and Noni, as it was hard to communicate in Hawaii. Thank you very much! (^O^)／ (Participated on 2012/5/13)

おばさん二人での参加だったので、まず海に入ることも何十年振りで、体力的にもとても不安だったけど、いざ参加してみるとインストラクターのケビンさんとノニさんと私たちだけだったので本当に気兼ねなくのんびりと大海原にプカリプカリ。
シュノーケルも初体験に等しく出来るか心配だったけど、何とかうまく出来てきれいな魚たちも見ることが出来ました。
写真もたくさん撮って頂き、メールで送って頂きました。

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＞

It's fun. 楽しいです。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in the Ocean Rafting & Lava Cave Adventure at Kealakekua Bay snorkeling.

I was a bit anxious about the meeting place, but it was easy to find.

The check-in process was smooth. It seems there are no changing rooms, so it's better to wear your swimsuit beforehand.

The rubber boat accommodates about ten people, but it felt stable and was not scary at all.

The guide spoke only English, but was friendly and made an effort to explain things using gestures, which was appreciated since we are not very good at English.

Racing across the Hawaiian waters was quite exhilarating. I was lucky to sit at the front and enjoy the speed.

Along the way, we encountered a pod of whales. It seems you can't always see them, so it was a great experience. A baby whale came quite close, and it was adorable.

We also saw dolphins playing and sea turtles.

As for snorkeling, as others have mentioned, the clarity of the water is amazing. Tropical fish are swimming very close to you.

Other tour participants brought their own snorkeling gear. If you're a bit nervous, it's better to prepare your own. If you're unsure about swimming, I recommend borrowing a life vest to enjoy it even more.

With the guide watching nearby, you can enjoy the Hawaiian waters relatively safely, so I recommend this tour.

集合場所が不安でしたが、わかりやすい場所です。

受付もスムーズに行えました。
特に更衣室などは無いようなので、水着は着用しておくほうがいいようです。

１０人乗り程度のゴムボードですが、安定感はあり恐くはありません。

ガイドの方は英語オンリーですが、フレンドリーな対応で
英語が苦手な私たちにも　身振り手振りを交え、一生懸命
説明をしてくれて好感がもてました。

スピーディーにハワイの海原を疾走するのは　かなり気持ちいいです。
フロント側に座れたので、スピード感が楽しめラッキーでした。

途中には、クジラの群れに遭遇できました。
毎回、出会えるわけではないようなので、かなりお得な体験でした。
かなり近くまで子クジラが近づいてきて可愛かったです。

ほかにもイルカが遊んでる様子やウミガメも見れました。

シュノーケルは、ほかの方も書き込みしていますが、透明度の高い海は最高です。
手が届く近さにトロピカルフィッシュが群れています。

ほかのツアー参加者はシュノーケルグッズ持ち込んだりしていました。　
神経質な方は用意していったほうが良いです。
泳ぎが不安な方はベストも借りるとより楽しめますので遠慮せずに借りることを薦めます。

ガイドが近くで見ているので、比較的安全にハワイの海を楽しめますので　お勧めのツアーです。

Seeing the starry sky at Mauna Kea was my husband's dream. It came true. I was a bit anxious since it’s said to be taller than Mount Fuji, but it was fine. I brought a fleece and a thin down jacket, but they also lent me a very warm jacket, pants, and a cute penguin hat. It was really cold and the wind was strong, but the stars were amazing. It was moving. The tour guide was very pleasant and taught us many things, which was really great. The newlyweds were calling each other Yamachan and Macchan. I also recommended this tour to a friend who wants to go to the Big Island.

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＞

A luau show that left me completely satisfied, even in the rain! 雨でも大満足のルアウショー！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Although it was the main highlight of my trip that I was looking forward to, unfortunately, it rained heavily.

Usually, there is a performance where King Kamehameha arrives by boat, followed by a dinner show under the starry sky, but it was suddenly changed to an indoor show.

We had to wait about an hour in the hotel lobby for the setup, but during that time, the MC kept us entertained with jokes and ukulele performances. Chatting with other foreign tourists also became a nice memory.

We moved to a banquet-like area inside the hotel for the show to begin. The performances of singing and dancing, along with audience participation during the cha-cha dance time, were wonderfully entertaining, and I was very satisfied.

The food featured traditional Hawaiian dishes as the main course. It was quite filling, and while tastes may vary, I enjoyed it very much.

We also had plenty of fun with participatory activities like hula lessons, but the hotel hallway felt a bit cramped. I wished we could have done it outside under the sky on the grass. However, it was such a fulfilling show program that I definitely want to participate again on a day with better weather!

I clearly remember the words, "For those visiting Hawaii for the first time, welcome; for those returning, you are friends (aikane); and for those coming for the third time or more, you are all family (ohana)," which warmed my heart.

旅のメインと楽しみにしていたのに生憎の大雨。


通常はキングカメハメハがボートに乗ってやってくるパフォーマンスと星空の下でのディナーショーなのですが、急きょ室内でのショーに変更になりました。


セッティングのためホテルロビーにて１時間ほど待たされたのですが、その間も客を飽きさせないようＭＣの方が冗談を飛ばしたりウクレレ演奏があったり。ほかの外国人観光客たちとの立ち話もいい思い出となりました。


ホテル内の宴会場のような場所に移動して、ショーの開始。
歌や踊りのパフォーマンス、観客を巻き込んでのチークダンスタイムなど素敵な演出が盛りだくさんで大満足でした。


料理はハワイの伝統食がメイン。ボリューム満点で好みは分かれるかとも思いますが、私は美味しく頂きました。


フラレッスンなどの参加型アクティビティも十分楽しめたのですが、やはりホテルの廊下では少し狭く、空の下、芝生の上でやりたかったなあという印象。しかし次こそは天候に恵まれた日にまたぜひ参加したい！と思える充実したショープログラムでした。



「一度目のHawaiiのひとは初めまして、
　二度目のひとは友達（aikane）、
三度目以上の人はみんな家族（ohana）」
という言葉に心がほっこりしたのをよく覚えています♪

We booked this cruise in particular because it was wheelchair accessible. We were traveling with a friend who is in a wheelchair and we wanted to be able to get her out on the ocean. The crew was fantastic! The ramp was easy and we sat in the front of the boat.

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＞

It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: kanahashizume

I made a confirmation call the day before the tour, but it was completely incomprehensible for us, as we couldn't speak any English, which left both sides in a bit of a bind... However, somehow it worked out, and when we arrived at the meeting place, we were warmly welcomed and were able to depart safely!

We had a 4-year-old with us, and since our child loves swimming in the sea and pool, they seemed to enjoy jumping directly into the ocean from the boat without any hesitation. However, since you can't stand on the coral, it might be tough for those who can't swim to accompany.

We were provided with kickboards and long floats, but as parents, it was quite stressful to swim with a child who can't swim. So, while I think children can participate and have fun, I would recommend joining after they learn to swim independently.

The sandwiches, fruits, and snacks for lunch were delicious. We were very satisfied with the meals.

On the day we went, we were also able to see baby dolphins jumping and playing!

There were many large fish! I had imagined small fish like those in Guam, but it was completely different! My daughter was delighted, saying, "It feels like we're swimming in an aquarium!" The staff even went out of their way to bring sea urchins and sea cucumbers for us to touch and enjoy since we returned to the boat early!

Although I couldn't understand most of the conversation since it was all in English, I think it was a tour that we could thoroughly enjoy because everyone, including the staff and participants, were very nice.

ツアー前日に確認の電話をしましたが、全く英語が話せない私達にはチンプンカンプンで、双方困ってしまいました…
が、まぁなんとかなるもので、集合場所に行くと温かく迎えて頂け、無事に出発出来ました！
私達は4歳の子連れでしたが、海やプールなどで泳ぐ事が大好きな子どもなので、ボートから直接海に入る事に抵抗もない様子で楽しめたみたいです。でも、珊瑚の上には立てないので、泳げない方が付き添いだときついと思います。

ビート板や細長い浮きは貸していただけましたが、親としては泳げない子どもを連れて泳ぐのは凄く気を使いました。
なので、子どもも参加は出来るし、楽しめるとは思いますが、一人で泳げるようになってからの参加をお勧めします。

昼食のサンドイッチやフルーツ、お菓子もおいしかったです。
食事にはとても満足しています。

私達が行った日は赤ちゃんイルカがジャンプして遊んでいる姿も見ることが出来ました！

魚は大きなのが沢山いました！
グアムなどの海にいる小さな魚を思い浮かべていましたが、全然違いました！
娘は『水族館の中で泳いでいるみたい！』と喜んでいました。
スタッフさんが、早めにボートに戻った私達の為にウニやナマコを取ってきて下さり、触って楽しんだりも出来ました！


英語ばかりでほとんどの話は分かりませんが、スタッフさんや参加者の皆さんは良い方ばかりなので十分楽しめるツアーだと思います。

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

Starry sky 満天の星空

Reviewed by: Chiaki

While heading to Mauna Kea, our guide Fujitani made sure we had time to stop at a shopping center and even enjoy a little lava walk. He was energetic and fun throughout the tour.

During dinner at Onizuka, we had miso soup served in bowls instead of paper cups, which felt really comforting. The cocoa after our post-meal walk was delicious too!

At the summit (or nearby?!), the sunset was incredibly beautiful, and we were lucky to see Maui as well.

We saw the starry sky around 3,900 meters. It was absolutely stunning! There, we enjoyed cookies and warm tea, which felt like a luxurious treat. We could clearly see Saturn through the telescope!

Amidst the sky filled with stars, the explanation of the stars using a laser pointer was very easy to understand, even for someone like me who isn't knowledgeable about stars. I think the highlight was being able to see the Southern Cross!

マウナケアに向かいながら、時間があるからとショッピングセンターで時間を作ってくれたり、ちょっとした溶岩ウォーク出来たりと、ガイドの藤谷さんが元気に楽しく案内してくれました。
オニヅカでの夕食時にはみそ汁をいただいたのですが、紙コップとかではなくお椀でいただいたのが、なんだかホッとする感じ♪
食後の散歩した後のココアも美味しかった~

頂上（付近？！）では、サンセットがとてもキレイだったし、マウイ島も見ることができラッキー(^-^)v

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 meet the manta rays. マンタには会えなかったです

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in late July, but unfortunately, I couldn't see any manta rays. However, I was told that if I didn't see them, I could join again, so I tried again, but I still didn't see any that day. It's disappointing, but since it's nature, there's nothing that can be done. I would like to participate again if I have the chance, as I don't think there are many places where you can easily see manta rays like this.

The staff were friendly, which was great. The sunset from the port was also very beautiful. I had no trouble getting to the meeting place because I followed the comments from previous posts.

７月下旬に参加したんですが、残念ながらマンタには会えませんでした。
ただ、見えなければもう１回参加できるとの事で再挑戦しましたが、この日も会えませんでした。
こんな事もあるんですね。すっごく残念ですが自然のものなので仕方ないですね。
でもまた機会があれば参加したいです。こんなに簡単にマンタに会える場所はそうそう無いと思うので。

スタッフの方もフレンドリーでよかったです。港からの夕陽もとってもキレイでした。
集合場所も前に投稿されてた方のコメントを見て行ったので問題なく行けました。

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

Early morning tour participation☆ 早朝ツアー参加☆

Reviewed by: ぽこ

During our 3-night, 5-day trip to Hawaii, we found and participated in this early morning tour (a sea kayaking and snorkeling tour) despite our limited time.

Since there were only the two of us participating, it was our first time sea kayaking, but it was great that we could go at our own pace.

I can't swim, so I was scared of snorkeling even with a life jacket, but thanks to Kevin holding my hand and guiding me, I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind.

Both Kevin and Noni were very considerate, always keeping an eye on us during the tour, which made for a pleasant experience. If I have the chance to go to the Big Island again, I would like to try the cave tour next time.

Thank you very much.

３泊５日のハワイ旅行で、時間に限りがある中、こちらの早朝のツアー（シーカヤックとシュノーケリングのツアー）を見つけ参加させていただきました。

参加者は私たち二人だけだったので、シーカヤックは初めてだったのですが、自分たちのペースに合わせていただけたので良かったです。

私は泳げないため、ライフジャケットを着ていてもシュノーケリングが怖かったのですが、ケビンさんが手を取って誘導してくれたおかげで、安心して楽しむこともできました。

ケビンさんもノニさんも細やかな気遣いをされる方だったのでツアー中、常に私達を気にかけてくれ、気持ちよく参加することができました。
また、ハワイ島に行くことがあれば、今度は洞窟のツアーにも参加してみたいです。

ありがとうございました。

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＞

Encounter with a large pod of dolphins. イルカの大群と遭遇

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I encountered a large group of dolphins and swam with them, feeling as if I had become a dolphin myself. Since they are wild, we shouldn't touch them. Although we participated as a family, out of six people, everyone except one child got quite seasick due to the boat and the waves. That said, it was still a very enjoyable experience overall!

イルカの大群に遭遇していっしょに泳ぎ、まるで自分がイルカになったかのような気分。野生なので触ってはいけません。ただ、ファミリーでの参加でしたが、船と海の揺れで6人中子供1人を除いてみんな相当な船酔いしました。それもやむなしで、トータルとても楽しかったです！

Deluxe Captain Cook Snorkeling Tour at Kealakekua Bay - Fair Wind Cruises

Kealakekua Bay Awesome Snorkel

Reviewed by: Apinklady

Although my favorite island is Kauai, my husband and I always take a side trip over to the big island, just because I have to snorkel at Kealakekua Bay! The first time we did it we took the Zodiac boat which was lots of fun, fast, wet, and bouncy. With that said the last three times we have chosen the Fair Wind! This large catamaran provides a wonderful relaxing ride over to the bay and they cook you a wonderful barbecue lunch in addition to a continental breakfast. There is lots of time to snorkel which is totally amazing! The coral and fish are beautiful. My favorite area is around the coral on the monument side. You will see lots of different fish and be sure and go back and snorkel some more after lunch! The catamaran does have slides and high platforms to jump off of, but the best part is snorkeling. They do offer snuba too, if you enjoy that. I highly recommend this tour. It is the best! Don't forget your underwater camera. Enjoy the attached pics.

The supermoon was approaching, so the moonlight was strong, but I was very satisfied to see the artificial satellites as well!

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 moved by the sea of clouds! 雲海に感動！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was drawn to participate after seeing a photo of the sea of clouds at Mauna Kea in a guidebook.

The scenery on the way to Mauna Kea was wonderful for me, and I even encountered a herd of wild goats along the way, which was fun.

At the Onizuka Visitor Center, I borrowed warm clothing (the only place that lends both top and bottom was Masashi Nature School, so I decided on this place based on reviews), and off we went to the summit!

It was cold, but I was able to endure it and see the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds. I was so moved that I took a lot of photos, but the time at the summit was only about 30 minutes, and the sunset went down quickly, so I regretted not taking more time to enjoy it. Even after the sun set, the orange and blue colors lingered faintly between the clouds and the sky, which was very beautiful!

Afterward, we went a little lower to enjoy stargazing, but unfortunately, it was a full moon (I knew this when I signed up, but I could only take my vacation at this time), so there were fewer stars. However, I had expected the worst, so I was able to see more stars than I thought. My desire to see how amazing it would be during a new moon grew even stronger!

The guide's explanations were detailed and easy to understand, using a laser pointer, which was great.

Overall, I think this is a tour I would recommend to anyone, but if possible, participating during a new moon would enhance the experience even more!

ガイドブックに載っていたマウナ・ケアの雲海の写真に惹かれて参加。

マウナ・ケアまでの道中の景色も私にとっては素晴らしく、途中で野生のヤギの群れにも遭遇し楽しかったです。

オニズカビジターセンターで上下の防寒具を貸してもらい（上下貸して貰えるのはマサシ・ネイチャースクールだけだったので口コミと合わせてここに決めました）、いざ山頂へ！

寒かったのですが十分耐えれるレベルで雲海に沈む夕陽を観ることが出来ました。感動して写真を撮りまくりましたが、山頂での時間は３０分ほどと短く、夕陽が沈んでいくのも速いのでもっとゆっくり眺めるべきだったと少し後悔しました。夕陽が沈んだ後も雲と空の間にオレンジ色と青色が薄く残りとても綺麗でした！

その後少し下ったところで星空観賞をしましたがあいにくの満月だったので（申し込み時点で分かっていましたが休暇がこの時期しか無理だったので）星は少なめでした。それでも最悪を予想していたので思っていたよりも星はたくさん見えました。新月の時ならどれくらいすごいのか見たい気持ちがより強くなりました！
ガイドさんの説明も詳しくレーザーを使って分かり易くて良かったです。

トータルしてどなたにも勧められるツアーだと思いますが、出来れば新月の時に参加すれば感動は倍増すると思います！

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 highly recommend it to everyone!! 皆さんにお勧めです！！

Reviewed by: こうじ

I participated in the early morning plan because I was scheduled to join another optional tour in the afternoon.

Since I was staying at the Sheraton Hotel, it was easy to reach the meeting point in front of the hotel sign in just 2-3 minutes on foot. When I arrived, the guide Kevin was already waiting for us and greeted us warmly. When my friend was a bit late and tried to run, Kevin showed a thoughtful concern typical of Japanese people, saying, "Don't run! It's okay."

I learned that he had lived in Japan for over 20 years, and throughout the activity, I felt that his humility and kind, polite demeanor were even more Japanese than many Japanese people. The other guide, Noni, I believe is Japanese as well, and both of them can speak Japanese, so those who are worried about their English can participate with peace of mind!

This was my first experience with kayaking and snorkeling, and my friend had only tried it once before, so we were both beginners. After receiving a simple explanation, we quickly headed out to sea for a bit of practice before setting off! At first, I was a bit tense, but with constant advice from the guides, I gradually got used to it and was able to paddle along comfortably and enjoyably.

When we reached the snorkeling point, after a brief explanation of the snorkels, masks, and fins, we started snorkeling! When my friend was scared, Kevin took her hand and swam with her, and we both had a great time. It was fun to see schools of beautiful yellow fish, but since I have poor eyesight and usually wear glasses, I thought it would be nice to have a mask (goggles?) for people with bad vision, but I still enjoyed it thoroughly!

Both guides answered our questions and made it easy to enjoy casual conversations. Kevin's love for nature and gentle personality really shone through, while Noni was calm and composed, providing solid support, which left a strong impression on me.

While the content of the activities is important, the wonderful personalities of the two guides allowed us to spend a relaxing and healing time. If I come back to the Big Island, I definitely want to participate in their activities again.

I highly recommend it to everyone!!

　午後から他のオプショナルツアーに参加予定だったので早朝プランに参加しました。

　シェラトンホテルに滞在していたので徒歩２~３分で集合場所のホテル看板前に着くことができ、楽でした。到着するとすでにガイドのケビンさんが待っていてくれて、やさしく出迎えてくれました。彼女が少し遅れて走って来ようとすると「走らないで！大丈夫ですよ」とケビンさんが日本人のような細やかな気遣いをみせてくれました。
　話を聞くと日本に２０数年住まわれていたそうで腰の低さや親切丁寧な対応は日本人よりも日本人らしい人だなとアクティビティ中終始感じました。
　もう１人のガイドのノニさんは日本人だと思いますが、お二人とも日本語が話せるので英語に不安のある方も安心して参加することが出来ます！

　私はカヤックとシュノーケルは初体験で、彼女も一度体験しただけのほとんど素人でしたが、簡単な説明を受けた後すぐに海に出て少し練習し、いざ海原へ出発！　最初は力が入りすぎたりしていましたが、逐一アドバイスもしてもらえ、徐々に慣れてゆったりと楽しみながら漕ぎ進むことができました。

　シュノーケルのポイントに着くとシュノーケルやマスク、フィンの説明後、いざシュノーケル開始！彼女が怖がっているとケビンさんが手を取って一緒に泳いでくれ、二人とも楽しむことができました。黄色いきれいな魚の群れが見れたりして楽しかったのですが、私は視力が悪く普段はメガネをかけているので目が悪い人用のマスク（ゴーグル？）があれば良いなと思いましたが、それでも十分楽しむことが出来ました！

　ガイドのお二人はこちらの質問にも色々答えてくれたりで気楽に会話も楽しむことができ、ケビンさんの自然が大好きでやさしい人柄が伝わってきたり、ノニさんは穏やかで落ちついていてしっかりとサポートしている姿が印象的でした。

　アクティビティの内容も大事ですが、ガイドお二人の人柄が素晴らしく、ゆったりと癒しの時間を過ごすことが出来ました。またハワイ島に来ることがあったら、お二人のアクティビティに必ず参加したいと思います。

皆さんにお勧めです！！
