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

Tomorrow is a full moon. 何と、明日は満月

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The participation day was the day before the full moon, so the moonlight obscured the view of the stars a bit, but I was still moved by the beautiful starry sky. The staff's explanations were easy to understand, and I was able to experience the mysterious universe, including Saturn viewed through the telescope.

参加日は満月の前日のため、月の光に遮られて、星の見え方は今一つでしたが、それでも美しい星空に感動しました。
スタッフの方の説明もわかりやすく、望遠鏡から覗いた土星も含めて神秘の宇宙を体感できました。

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

kayaking and snorkeling

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

It was ok. The only problem I had with it was that the with the snorkeling portion we went to a place where they said theres a lot of fish and there werent, not colorful or of much variety. It was fun to jump off a cliff and go swimming. It was only worth the money because they gave unlimited snacks so you kind of got your moneys worth.

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>

I was able to see a whale breaching. クジラのブリーチングがみれた

Reviewed by: HOSOMI

We participated as a family of three, including my spouse and our first-grade child. The boat was quite comfortable, and we were able to see dolphins very well. We also spotted whales a few times in the distance. At one point, we witnessed a breaching, which was truly moving. However, our child was scared and didn't want to be at the edge of the boat, so they stayed in the middle and couldn't see much. The staff's explanations were in English, so I didn't understand them well, but the snacks we had on board were delicious.

夫婦と小学校1年生の子供の3人で参加しました。
船は結構快適で、イルカが良く見えました。クジラも少し遠くですが数回見えました。一度はブリーチングが見れ感動ものでした。ただし子供は船の端のほうにいるのを嫌がり(怖がり)船の真ん中の方いたので良く見れませんでした。
スタッフの方の説明は英語だったのでよく分かりませんでしたが、船上で食べたスナックが美味しかったです。

Sea Quest Kealakekua Bay Snorkel Tour & Rafting Sea Cave Expedition

Sea Quest Snorkeling Tour

Reviewed by: Tina Thatcher

This was BY FAR the best tour we took - even better than the helicopter tour of the volcano!

We enjoyed the smaller boat - only 12 people on our tour (from teens to seniors) plus Captain Steve and the Drew crew. Other boats seemed to have hundreds on board, although they may have had better facilities. Kayaks can damage the coral, and they aren't as mobile as the boat - no whale searching or cave exploring.

First, Hawaii Activities actually called us to check that we were going to be there on time and asked if we had any questions. Then, we checked in, signed waivers, and were assigned to our boat. It was all very organized and ran very smoothly.

Steve and Drew were very knowledgeable and patient with first timers. They served a wonderful snack (fresh pineapple and other fruits, chips, cookies, etc), and the snorkeling (two spots) was wonderful. They even had a book to help us identify what we had seen.

The icing on the cake was that two whales decided to grace us w

Hawaii Big Island Helicopter Tour – Volcanoes, Valleys & Waterfalls Flight

Helicopter Volcano Tour

Reviewed by: Tina Thatcher

This was an excellent trip!

The pre-flight activities were well organized, and the staff was very courteous.

The actual flight was incredible, and the pilot was very knowledgeable. It was wonderful to be able to ask questions while in flight.

The weather was the only drawback. We couldn't see the crater due to rain/fog/wind. It was still an incredible trip, but it would have been even better to see the crater.

I would recommend this trip to anyone, although considering the cost, children probably wouldn't enjoy as much as adults. Seating is arranged by weight to balance the ride, so young children could be separated from Mom - might be an issue for some.

Overall, a wonderful tour conducted by a wonderful company.

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 sunset and starry sky above and below. 天上地の夕陽と星空

Reviewed by: Mejina

This was my first experience at an altitude of 4200 meters, and I was initially filled with worry about the health of my elementary and high school daughters. However, thanks to the advice and attentiveness of our guide, Mr. Fujitani, the tour turned out to be reassuring. The photos are indeed beautiful, but the emotions can only be understood by those who have seen it! It was such a shame to see the sunset, and how fast time flew by... I definitely want to go again. The stargazing afterward was not at the 2800-meter Onizuka Center, but at a completely dark area around 4000 meters, which was also very satisfying! I learned a lot from the detailed information about the constellations.

自分自身は初めての4200mの高地体験であり、更に小学生、高校生の娘達の体調も気掛かりで、最初は心配な気持ちいっぱいでしたが、ガイドのFUJITANIさんのアドバイスと気配りで安心したツアーとなりました。写真は確かにキレイですが、、、やはり、観た人しかこの感動はわかりません!!! 夕陽が沈んでいくのがとても惜しく、時間の流れゆくのがなんと速いことか、、、また、観に行きたいと思います。 そのあとの星空観賞も2800mのオニズカセンターではなく、4000m付近の灯が全くない広場での鑑賞で、これも大満足! 星座にとても詳しい話を聞けて、とても勉強になりました。

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>

Enjoying Big Island!!! Big Ilandを堪能!!!

Reviewed by: 山マキFamily

The staff's service is outstanding. They are friendly and approachable. The pilot was cautious and serious, and the explanations were easy to understand (he's from Hawaii). It was the most comfortable helicopter ride I've ever experienced.

I started to get a bit bored with the endless expanse of volcanic ash and land, but then came the breathtaking beauty of the Kohala Coast and Waipi'o Valley!!!! I think this beauty can only be appreciated from a helicopter. When I spotted a mother and baby whale swimming from above and informed the pilot, he kindly showed us from an angle where everyone could see, which was truly moving.

For those who want to condense the essence of the vast Hawaii Island into a short time, this adventure comes highly recommended.

スタッフさんの対応は抜群です。気軽に話しかけてくれてフレンドリーです。パイロットの方は慎重な運転のかたで、まじめ、解説もわかりやすかった(ハワイのかたです)です。今まで乗ったヘリコプターのなかでいちばん安心の乗り心地でした。
延々と続く広大な火山灰と土地に半ば飽きが来てしまいましたが そのうちコハラコースト、ワイピオバレーの鳥肌ものの美しさ!!!!これはヘリの上からでないと味わえない美しさだと思いました。途中クジラの親子の遊泳を上から発見した私がパイロットに知らせると丁寧に 全員が観れる角度で見せてくれて感激しました。
広い広いハワイ島の醍醐味を短い時間で凝縮して楽しみたいというかたは、ぜひお勧めのアドベンチャーです。

The guide was very kind.
The scenery was amazing.
The starry sky was also fantastic.
It was really cold!
I brought two pairs of gloves and earmuffs, so I was fine, but my friend who was with me got so cold during the stargazing that they were in "I want to get back to the car quickly!" mode. They do lend out winter clothing, but it’s better to prepare your own as well.

At that time, I wasn't climbing mountains, but now that I do, I wish I had gone to the "real summit."

ガイドさんもとても親切
景色は最高
星空も最高
すごく寒い!
私は手袋2枚&耳当てを持っていき大丈夫でしたが、同行の友達は星空観測の途中からあまりの寒さに「早く車に入りたい!」というモードになってしまっていたそうです。防寒着貸してくれますが、プラス自分でも防寒着、用意してしてしすぎることはないです。

当時は山登りをしていなかったのですが、今は山に登るようになったため、「本当の山頂」に行ってみたかったなあ、と今になって思います。

helicopter tour

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We loved our helicopter tour! Our first time in a helicopter and we both had a few hesitations, but the ground crew was very helpful and supportive and Koji, our pilot, was wonderful. He made an effort to circle around each area so that everyone would have a great view of the area. The tour was awesome, we felt like we saw all the highlights on the island and really got a feeling of how the lava flows and how the island has changed over the years. We would definitely recommend this tour. The highlight of our trip to the Big Island.

This was an extremely unique experience. Some of the views can only be experienced from a helicopter. Waterfalls, lava flows, flights deep into the valley are just some of the sights on this tour. The pilot/guide is extremely knowledgeable and makes the trip fun as well. Well worth the cost and would highly recommend for any individual or group. I can only imagine that each trip would be different due to environmental conditions such as lava flows and rainfall so it is perfect for first timers and repeat guests.

It was good, but a little more... 良かったですが、もう少し…

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

On January 1, 2011, I participated with my family of four. It was great to see a whale for the first time in my life. However, since it was a large boat, I thought it would be difficult, and I was a bit disappointed that we were a little far from the whale, so I couldn't fully experience its size. I also wished we could have spent a bit more time watching the whales. Nonetheless, it was a relatively easy tour, and I don't think you can have this kind of experience in Japan, so I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see whales.

2011年1月1日の元日に家族4人で参加しました。生まれて初めて鯨を見ることができたので良かったです。ただ大きな船なので難しいとは思いますが、ちょっと鯨との距離が離れていたので大きさを体感することができなかったのは残念でした。またもう少し鯨を見る時間をとってほしかったなと思いました。でも比較的手軽なツアーだし、日本ではこのような体験はできないと思うので鯨を見てみたい人にはオススメのツアーだと思います。

Despite the rain, we set sail and spent about an hour searching diligently for whales, but unfortunately, we didn't see any. However, at the end, we encountered a pod of dolphins! We spent quite a long time moving through the sea together. Several dolphins swam around the boat, and we were able to see them up close. They jumped repeatedly, putting on a great show for us. The disappointment of not seeing any whales was completely blown away. I definitely want to participate in a whale watching cruise again next time and hope to see whales.

The whale was surprisingly far away, but the cruising was refreshing. クジラは意外に遠かったけど、クルージングは爽快

Reviewed by: 磨波郎

I participated with my wife and our third-grade son. Shortly after departure, we encountered a mother and baby whale. We were able to see them quite a few times while keeping our distance. One of those times, we were lucky enough to witness the mother whale jumping and showing her massive body above the water's surface. However, the distance was generally far, so the emotional impact was somewhat diminished. Also, since we could mostly only see the whales' backs, we had to concentrate on the surface of the water to catch the exciting moments like when they jump or elegantly raise their tails above the surface. That can be quite challenging.

This was my first time whale watching, so I might have underestimated it a bit. On the other hand, a pod of dolphins came quite close to the boat and swam alongside us, and when the boat picked up speed, the sea breeze felt pleasant. If you can think of it as mainly enjoying the cruising experience, it could be quite happy.

The staff was cheerful and friendly, and the captain was impressively talkative, providing explanations (though in English). There were snacks and fruits available, but no substantial meals. Coffee and water were unlimited, but cocktails were available for an extra charge.

 妻と小学校3年の息子の3人で参加しました。 
出港後、ほどなくして親子のクジラに遭遇。遠巻きに見ながら追っかけて、けっこうな回数、見ることができました。 しかも、そのうち1回は親クジラがジャンプするような感じで巨体を水面に出す場面が見れたので、ラッキーでした。ただ、距離は全般的に遠かったので、感動も小さかったかな。 また、クジラはほとんど背中しか見えませんので、ジャンプするところや尾びれを優雅に水面に出すオイシイ場面を見逃さないようにするには、集中して海面を見つめていなければなりません。それがけっこう大変かも。
 私はホエール・ウォッチングは初めてでしたので、ちょっと安易に考えすぎてすぎていたかもしれません。
 その代わりにイルカの群れは、けっこう船の近くまで寄っ
てきて泳いでくれましたし、船がスピードを出すと潮風が心地よかったので、クルージングを楽しむことがメインだと思えればHAPPYかもしれません。
 スタッフは陽気でフレンドリーだし、船長は感心するくらいしゃべりっぱなしで説明をしていました(ただし英語)。
 あと、スナック菓子やフルーツはありましたが、食事的なものはありません。コーヒーと水は飲み放題ですが、カクテル類は有料でした。

I joined a tour that departed in the afternoon. I skipped lunch expecting some light snacks, but what was served were just some snack bites and fruit, which was a bit disappointing. The drinks were free except for alcohol, but since we were on a boat, it felt awkward to go to the restroom, so I couldn't drink too much. However, I did get to see whales that I wouldn't have seen on land, so it was okay.

If you want to take good photos of the whales, you need a serious camera with a telephoto lens and shoot in burst mode, otherwise, you'll end up with photos where you can't even tell where the whale is. My IXUS was completely useless for whale photography.

午後出発のツアーに参加しました。
軽食付きに期待して昼ご飯を抜いたら、供されたのはおつまみスナックとフルーツくらいで、ちょいがっくり。飲み物はアルコール以外フリードリンクですが、船上の事、トイレに行くのも憚られるのでそうそうがぶ飲みも出来ず。
でも陸に居ては見られないクジラを見られたし、まあOKです。
クジラの写真をちゃんと撮って帰りたい人は、望遠レンズ付きのマジなカメラで連写しないと、どこにクジラがいるのかさっぱり判らない写真しか撮れない事になるので、ご注意を。私のIXYはクジラ撮影には完璧に無力でした。

Whales, sea turtles, and tropical fish. クジラと海がめと熱帯魚

We signed up for a kayak tour in Japanese as a couple in our 50s. The owner and guide, Kevin, has a beautiful Japanese wife. Kevin used to be an English teacher in Japan, so he speaks Japanese well. His wife is said to be a former student of his.

Even if it's your first time kayaking, you'll be fine. You'll receive kind and thorough instruction, and then the two of them will guide you out to sea. With a stable sit-on-top kayak, there's no worry about capsizing, even for beginners. We could see whales spouting and raising their tails in the distance, and we also spotted sea turtles. There's a point where manta rays can appear, so it seems you might see them as well. We were told that if a large black shadow passes by, it's a manta ray, but we didn't see any that day.

The snorkeling revealed the beauty of the sea... Instead of going out on a big boat to see whales and dolphins, let's leisurely meet whales and sea turtles in a stable kayak. If you get better at paddling, they will guide you to even more amazing spots, so I think it's a good idea to sign up for two days.

Please experience the great nature that you can't enjoy on Oahu. It takes about 15 minutes and costs $20 by taxi from our hotel in Kona to the clubhouse.

Kilauea Volcano Doors-Off Helicopter Tour from Hilo [Not Operating]

Be Aware!!

Reviewed by: crfolgate

This would be a great trip IF you don't get stuck in the backwards seats. These seats are a total rip off since you don't get to see where you are headed and when there is something cool to see well too bad it's already past. Pilot does a good job of trying to circle around so everyone see's but there's no way for the backward seat folks to see anything really well. If you decide to go I STRONGLY recommend that you get guarantee's that you get a front seat or front looking seats only. My wife and Mom had great seats and enjoyed the views I'm happy about that but I wish I had saved the money and sent them up without me since it was two hours of flying backwards and barely seeing anything. You have been warned. :O
**** Also you should also be aware that the photo's of all the cool lava flows are really old. We saw very little lava and after the flight we found out they use old photo's for advertising. Pretty views are to be had but not much lava.

It was surprisingly cold for Hawaii, but they provided warm clothing, and the stunning scenery made me forget the cold!

You can overlook the sea of clouds and watch the sunset from the mountaintop, which looks like a sunrise despite being a sunset, so I used the photos taken there for my New Year's cards♪

The starry sky was also amazing, and I was able to refresh my mind so much that I forgot about the busyness in Japan.

If you're going to the Big Island, this is definitely a tour you can't miss!

昨年、息子夫婦がツアーに参加し、「とてもよかった!」と言っていたので参加してみました。

ハワイとは思えない寒さでしたが、防寒具も貸してもらえるし、寒さも忘れるほどのすばらしい景色!


雲海を見下ろし、山頂でサンセットを見ることができるのですが、サンセットでありながら日の出のように見えるので、ここで撮ってもらった写真を年賀状の写真にしました♪

星空もすばらしく、日本での忙しさを忘れるほど「心のリフレッシュ」ができました。

ハワイ島にいくなら絶対に外せないツアーです!
