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 recommend the tour. ツアーがおススメです

Reviewed by: makikoe

I had visited the Big Island several times, but this was my first opportunity to go to the summit of Mauna Kea. While it was possible to get to ONIZUKA on our own, it was not feasible to drive to the summit with a rental car (though I heard some people do manage to get in...). Given the concerns about driving on Saddle Road at night, we decided to book a tour.

Since we were staying at Mauna Lani, the tour bus picked us up last. We spent the morning playing at the beach, and the pickup came around 3:45 PM. It was very convenient that they came right to the parking lot of our accommodation. They informed us in advance to avoid alcohol for six hours to prevent altitude sickness and also contacted us about renting warm clothing.

Unfortunately, it was raining when we reached ONIZUKA, so based on the tour guide's judgment, we had our lunch (a bento-style meal with warm miso soup) in the vehicle and hurried to the summit. Fortunately, the summit was clear, and we were able to enjoy the sunset slowly. I was glad we didn’t take our time eating lunch. It was impressive! After that, we descended (there's a rule that you must leave the park after the sunset) and observed the starry sky. There was also warm tea and cookies available. They took many photos for us (no extra charge), and we were very satisfied. The night sky photos that I couldn't capture with my own camera were a highlight. It was a thoroughly enjoyable tour.

I had brought my own warm clothing, but it was really cold, so I was grateful to be able to borrow some. The road to the summit is quite bumpy, and the return trip on Saddle Road is pitch dark. I truly felt it was a good decision to join the tour.

I have also participated in a sunrise tour on Maui, but it was physically demanding, so I recommend the sunset tour. If you have the time, a sunrise tour could be fine, but you will be extremely sleepy afterward.

ハワイ島は何度か訪れていましたが、マウナケア山頂に行く機会がなく
初めて訪れました
自分たちでONIZUKAまで行く事は可能でしたが、レンタカーでは山頂まで行くことが不可能（中にはいってしまう人もいるそうですが・・・）との事と夜のサドルロードの運転など不安要素もありツアーを予約

マウナラニに滞在していたので、ツアーバスが迎えに来てくださったのが一番最後のでした。
午前中はビーチで遊び、15：45位に迎えが来ました
滞在先の駐車場まで来ていただいたので、とても楽でした
事前に、注意事項として高山病を避けるため6時間はアルコールを控えるよう、また防寒具のレンタルのご連絡などをいただきました
ONIZUKAまで行くとあいにくの雨、ツアーの方の判断で車内でお弁当をいただき（幕ノ内的なものと温かいお味噌汁）急ぎ山頂へ
山頂が晴れていたので、ゆっくりサンセットを楽しむ事ができました
のんびりお弁当食べていなくてよかった
さすがです！
それから、下山（サンセット終わると公園を出ないといけない決まりです）し、星空を観測。温かい紅茶とクッキーもありました
たくさん写真もとっていただき（別途料金不要）大満足でした
自分のカメラでは撮影できない夜空の写真
大満足のツアーでした

防寒着も持参していましたが、本当に寒いのでお借りできたこと
また、山頂までの道がかなり揺れます。そして帰りのサドルロードが真っ暗です。本当にツアーに参加してよかったと思います。

サンライズツアーもマウイ島で参加した事がありますが、体力的にもきついのでサンセットをお勧めいたします。
時間がある方はサンライズでも構わないと思いますが、ツアー後眠くてたまりません。

This was THE COOLEST snorkel excursion. First they picked us up from our hotel, RAD. They have a marine biologist on board that taught us a lot about the creatures we'd be seeing and the ecosystem which was fascinating. The area they took us to was a gorgeous reef and we saw some amazing fish and sea creatures. The marine biologist was even diving for starfish that he showed everyone and let us pet while we were in the water. We got a good hour and a half of snorkeling and then it was time for a tasty sandwich bar lunch. On the way back was, yes what you've all been waiting for, an OPEN BAR. Those were the best drinks I got on the island. It was awesome, big shout out to the amazing crew.

Reviewed by: kokiyuki

While watching a mysterious safety video during check-in, my husband and I, along with our children, were genuinely worried that we might have signed up for a crazy tour. However, when the crew realized we were Japanese, they used simple Japanese phrases (like "stand," "sit," "hold on here," etc.), which made it enjoyable for us to participate.

When taking off, we sat on the deck and let ourselves go. Upon returning, we went with the flow and stood up on the deck at the right moment. The world over 100 meters above the sea was truly serene, and we were just amazed by the magnificent nature of Hawaii Island and the vast ocean.

When returning, it's fine if you're not in a swimsuit as long as you don't splash down, but if you're someone who might, please come in a swimsuit.

チェックインの際に見せられた，謎の安全のためのビデオを見ながら，私たち夫婦も，子どもたちも，マジでヤバいツアーに参加しちゃったんじゃないかとビビりながら参加しましたが，

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

The dolphins appeared right in front of me, and it was so moving! イルカたちが目の前に現れ，とっても感動しました！

Reviewed by: kokiyuki

I participated on January 2, 2019. I was really worried about what would happen if we capsized, but that never happened until the end (we participated as a 44-year-old father, 42-year-old mother, 14-year-old eldest son, and 12-year-old second son). Along the way, we were able to see dolphins up close. Our guide, Noni, spoke perfect Japanese, which made it easy for my middle school children to participate comfortably.

However, there was one point. I thought it might be better to have gloves for paddling, as it would prevent pain at the base of both thumbs. (My second-year middle school child said their thumb was hurting from the pressure.) I think it's best to wear swimsuits in advance and keep personal belongings to a minimum (water is provided during the tour, and there’s no time to apply sunscreen. If you have already settled payments with a credit card in advance, a tip for the guide should be sufficient).

２０１９／１／２に参加しました。
転覆したらどうしようって，本当に心配したのですが，
そんなことは最後までありませんでした（４４歳父，４２歳母，１４歳長男，１２歳二男で参加。）。
途中，イルカを間近で見ることもできました。
ガイドのノニさん，完璧な日本語で，中学生の子どもたちも，安心して参加できました。
ただ，一点だけ。パドルをこぐのに，それぞれ軍手があった方が，両手の親指の付け根が痛くならなくて済むのではないかなーと思いました。
（中２の子どもが，親指の付け根が当たって痛い痛い，と言っていましたので。）
水着は予め着用，手荷物は最小限（水は，ツアーについてますし，日焼け止めは，塗るヒマもありません。お金は，事前にクレジットカードで清算しているのであれば，ガイドさんのチップくらいで大丈夫。）にして，参加するのがよいと思います。

I was worried because I have little experience with snorkeling, but I received great support and was able to participate with peace of mind. The swim guides seemed to constantly share information about the dolphins, and thanks to their judgment on where to take us, I was able to see many dolphins!

(If the dolphin sighting location is far away, I think it's good to have motion sickness medication for those who are concerned.)

Also, while on the boat, Daisuke, the swim guide, shared a lot of information about the dolphins and always let us know when dolphins were nearby, which made the waiting time enjoyable.

Additionally, we were lucky enough to encounter whales during the winter season, allowing us to experience both dolphin swimming and whale watching, which was a double delight!

There may be other dolphin swim tours, but this tour was satisfying in every aspect, including knowledge about dolphins, support, and the friendliness of the staff! If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I would love to do this again.

シュノーケリング等の経験が浅いので心配でしたが、しっかりとフォローしてもらい、安心して参加できました★
スイムガイドさん達も常にイルカの情報をシェアしあっているようで、ちゃんとイルカが見られる場所までその場その場の判断で連れてってくださったおかげでたくさんのイルカをみることができました！！＾＾
（イルカの出現場所によっては遠くなることもあるので心配な方は酔い止めがあるといいと思います）

また、船に乗っている間もスイムガイドのダイスケさんがイルカに関する情報を沢山お話ししてくださり、
常にイルカがあそこにいる！ということも教えてくれたので泳ぐまでの時間も楽しむことができました。

さらに冬季限定でクジラも運良く遭遇することができ、ホエールウォッチングもでき一石二鳥の感動を味わうことができました！

The dish with pork steamed in leaves and the dessert were delicious. The view of the harbor and Kona at sunset was amazing and beautiful!! The luau was packed with Kahiko, hula, Tahitian, and fire performances. However, my child got tired and fell asleep halfway through, but they were satisfied with the food. It was a lot of fun.

ワイピオ渓谷 　乗馬ツアー　＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ワイピオ・オン・ホースバック

It is healing. 癒やされます

Reviewed by: ミント

On December 30, we participated as a family of four. Two of us are children aged 9 and 11.
It was almost our first time riding horses, but the horses were well-trained, so we had no worries.
We took a walk in the valley floor of Waipi'o Valley, swaying on the backs of the horses. It was a place filled with rich water and greenery, exuding tranquility.

For your reference:
- We traveled to and from the valley floor by 4WD from the meeting point. This took quite a bit of time. The approximate schedule was: gather at 1:30 PM, move to the valley floor, start horseback riding at 2:15 PM, finish riding at 3:45 PM, and disperse at the meeting point at 4:15 PM.
- We were the only Japanese participants; everyone else was from the mainland United States.
- We planned to rent a car to get to the meeting point, but when we tried to make a reservation at the hotel after arriving on the Big Island, we were told there were no rental cars available until January 3.
We had no choice but to use a round-trip taxi, which cost over $400 from Kailua-Kona. We should have reserved a rental car from Japan.

12月30日に家族4人で参加しました。うち二人は9才、11才の子どもです。
4人ともほぼ初めての乗馬でしたが、馬はよく調教されていて不安なことはありませんでした。
ワイピオ渓谷の谷底を、馬の背に揺られながらの散歩です。豊かな水と緑が印象的な、静謐さをたたえた場所でした。

以下、参考になれば。
・集合場所〜ワイピオ渓谷の谷底を4WDで往復します。これにかなり時間がかかります。
おおよそのタイムスケジュールは、13:30集合で谷底へ移動、14:15から乗馬、15:45乗馬終了、16:15集合場所で解散。
・日本人は私たちだけで、他は全員アメリカ本土からの参加でした。
・私たちはレンタカーを借りて集合場所まで行くつもりでしたが、ハワイ島へ着いてからホテルで予約しようとしたら、1月3日までハワイ島ではレンタカーが1台もないと言われました。
仕方なく往復タクシーを使い、カイルア・コナから400ドル強かかりました。
レンタカーは日本から予約して行くべきでした。

ケアウホウ湾　シーカヤック＆シュノーケリングツアー ＜英語ガイド／軽食付き＞by オーシャンサファリ・カヤック

Sea kayaking and snorkeling シーカヤックとシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: hashnao

After paddling for about 30 minutes by sea kayak to the destination's shallow area, we entered the sea directly from the kayak to go snorkeling. The underwater visibility is very clear, and there are a decent variety and quantity of fish, so those who want to enjoy both kayaking and snorkeling should be satisfied. By the way, snorkeling is optional, and about 20% of participants did not go snorkeling. Since we paddle the kayak both ways, we don't progress while listening to the guide's explanations, so if you want to hear the guide's insights, it might be a good idea to actively engage in conversation.

The sea cave is not a long cave that extends for dozens of meters; it's about 3 to 5 meters in total length. When you enter the cave with the kayak, you get swept away more quickly by the waves when they return, so it's more about enjoying that experience. There is also a point where you can jump into the sea from a cliff about 5 meters high, so you can optionally jump from the cliff into the sea.

Before getting on the kayak, there is a briefing where they explain how to paddle. The explanation is all in English, but if you have experience paddling a boat, you should be able to understand the basic instructions in English. Additionally, there was one guide who could explain using very simple Japanese words necessary for kayaking (like left, right, stop, etc.).

Since everyone participating this time had kayaking experience, the pace of paddling was quite fast, but I believe the guide adjusts the pace based on the participants' skills and how many times they have kayaked before. Especially for those from Western countries, they tend to have good stamina, so if you're not confident in your physical strength, I recommend mentioning that during the briefing. During the briefing, you will be asked if you need a life jacket for kayaking. Since you will also use a life jacket while snorkeling, it's best to communicate your need for one during the briefing.

シーカヤックで片道30分ほど目的地の浅瀬に向かった後、海上で直接カヤックから海に入って、シュノーケリングをします。海中の透明度は非常にクリアで、魚の種類と量もそれなりにいるので、カヤックとシュノーケリングを同時に楽しみたい方は満足できるはずです。ちなみにシュノーケリングは任意で、参加した方の2割はシュノーケリングをしていませんでした。行きと帰りはカヤックを漕ぐので、ガイドの説明を横で聞きながら進むというわけではなく、ガイドから説明を聞きたい場合は積極的に話しかけたほうがいいかもしれません。海中洞窟（シーケーブ）は数十メートルも続くような洞窟ではなく、全長3~5m程度で、そこにカヤックで入ると波が戻る際に波の力でより早く流されるので、それを楽しむ程度です。また高さ5m程度の崖から海に飛び込むポイントもあるので、任意で崖から海に飛び込むことができます。
カヤックに乗る前にブリーフィングがありカヤックの漕ぎ方について説明があります。説明は全て英語ですが、ボートを漕いだことがある方なら基本的な説明は英語でも理解できると思います。また、カヤックの動作に必要なごくごく簡単な日本語の単語(左右、止まるなど)で説明することができるガイドが1人いました。
今回参加した全員がカヤックの経験者だったため、カヤックを漕ぐペースはかなり早めでしたが、ガイドが参加者のスキルやカヤックに乗ったことがある回数によってペースを合わせると思います。特に欧米の方は体力があるので、体力に自信がない方は、ブリーフィングの際にその旨を伝える事をお勧めします。ブリーフィングでカヤックに乗る際、ライフジャケットが必要か聞かれます。シュノーケリングをする際もライフジャケットを利用するので、シュノーケリングでライフジャケットが必要な方はブリーフィングの際に伝えた方がよいと思います。

Reviewed by: Yuka

My English skills were below the level of daily conversation, but I was able to enjoy the experience without any problems.

【Before Boarding the Boat】
At the scheduled time, a small bus came to pick us up at the hotel front. We were dropped off near the sea close to Waikoloa and were told, "Come back here when you're done. Also, please fill out the consent form over there before boarding the boat." We headed towards a beach house on the sand. After completing the electronic signature on a device that looked like a tablet, we waited for about 10 minutes until a small boat arrived, and we boarded it. We transferred from the small boat to a larger boat just before going out to sea. There were only two of us from Japan participating.

【Whale Watching Experience】
Seating on the boat was free. Since it was an English tour, I couldn't understand what was being said at all (laughs). The boat was also swaying, so when standing up to take pictures of the whales, everyone stood, so please make sure to hold onto the ropes or handrails tightly. Although it was far away, we were able to see the whales spouting water about 4 to 5 times and also witnessed a low jump of a whale arching its back. It was a precious experience where I could feel the great nature of Hawaii Island. The crew was a kind young man. He said, "You can almost see whales every day! Dolphins are occasional. There are more in Kona than here." I was shown a picture of the boat getting very close to a whale by the crew, and I was amazed at how impressive it was. Since it depends on luck whether you see whales or not, I thought, "There are lucky days like this." By the way, the two of us did not get seasick.

【After Whale Watching】
Around 9:30, we got off the boat and transferred to a small boat to return to the beach. We boarded the bus we took on the way there and safely arrived back at the hotel front, marking the end of the tour.

Since it was my first experience with whale watching, I’m glad I participated! While waiting for the whales, I also enjoyed cruising. I could see the mountains like Mauna Kea in the distance and the beautiful coastline, making for a graceful time.

日常会話レベル以下の英語力でしたが、特に問題なく楽しむことができました。

【船に乗るまで】
時間になったらホテルのフロントまで小型バスが迎えに来てくれました。
ワイコロアから程近い海に降ろされ「終わったらここに戻ってきてね。それと船に乗る前に同意書は向こうで書いてね。」と言われ、砂浜にある海の家(?)に向かいます。タブレットのような機械で電子サインを済ませ10分ほど待つと小さな船が来たので乗りました。
沖より少し手前で小さな船から大きな船に移ります。
日本人参加者は私達2人だけでした。

【ホエールウォッチング体験】
船の席は自由です。英語ツアーなので私は何を言っているかはちんぷんかんぷんでした（笑）。
また船は揺れるので立ち上がってクジラの写真を撮る際は、皆立つのでしっかりロープや手すりにつかまってください。
遠かったですが4〜5回クジラの潮吹きを見ることができ、クジラの反り返りの低いジャンプも見ることができました。ハワイ島の大自然を感じられた瞬間で貴重な体験でした。
クルーも親切なお兄ちゃんでした。「クジラは毎日ほぼ見れるよ！イルカはたまに。ここよりもコナの方がいるよ。」とのこと。クルーのお兄ちゃんに船でクジラに大接近してる画像を見せてもらい、大迫力すぎて驚きました。自然相手なのでクジラに会えるor会えないは運ですが、こういうラッキーな日もあるんだなぁと思いました。ちなみに、私達2人は船酔いせずに済みました。

【ホエールウォッチングを終えて】
9:30頃船から降りて、また小さい船に移動し砂浜へ戻ります。行きに乗ったバスに乗り込み、無事にホテルのフロントに到着し無事にツアー終了となりました☆

ホエールウォッチングは初めての経験だったので、参加してよかったです！またクジラを待ってる間はクルージングとして楽しみましたよ。遠くの方にマウナケア等の山が見えて美しい海岸も見ることができ優雅な時間でした。

I was able to see dolphins up close! イルカを真近で見れました！

Reviewed by: kodama

All the tour guides were kind and very interesting! They shared a lot of love and knowledge about dolphins, which made it enjoyable on its own. They provided precise support to ensure we had a good encounter with the dolphins during the actual tour. It was really fun! I'm glad I chose this tour. I would like to book a tour here again when I go to Hawaii!

ツアーガイドの方がどの方も親切で、とっても面白い！
イルカに対する愛情と知識も沢山話していただいて、それだけでも楽しめました(^^)
実際のツアーでもイルカにしっかり遭遇できるように的確にサポートしてくださいます。
本当に楽しかったです！
このツアーにして良かった☆
またハワイに行くときはこちらでツアーを頼みたいと思います^_^

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

Unfortunately, the weather is... 残念ながら天気が

Reviewed by: キート

Following the last time, I couldn't see the sunset among the clouds again this time. As for the starry sky, thanks to the staff's quick thinking, we were able to observe it a little at Mauna Kea Park, but the surrounding lights were a bit distracting.

前回に続き、今回も雲の中で夕日が見られなかった。星空に関してはスタッフの機転でマウナケアパークで少しだけ観測できましたが、周囲の明かりが気になりました。

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ＜12～3月／午前／軽食付き／ワイコロアまたはカワイハエ港発＞

Calm waves 波穏やか

Reviewed by: maichap

As we slowly glided over the mirror-like surface of the sea, we witnessed the spouting of whales and their diving. On the way back, we were treated to a pod of dolphins. It was a moving experience to realize that life can offer such moments!

鏡のような海面をゆっくり走ると、クジラの潮吹き、ダイビングを見学。帰り道はイルカの群生というおまけ付き。人生にこんな時間があるのだと、感動！
