Private Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour from Hilo

Private VIP Volcanoes National Park & Waterfalls Sightseeing Tour from Hilo #3973560

Reviewed by: Bill and Kathy

This was a tour which we will never forget! My husband, Bill and my brother Gary and his wife Deb thoroughly enjoyed this and Lee was the perfect guide. He was very knowledgeable about the culture and being a native new the area well. He answered all our questions an excellent host to us and friendly to everyone who we met on the way. He was also very personable and a family man talking about his family and sharing with us how he helps the children in his spare time on the island. He is a true asset to the company and to his heritage of the island. Taking a private tour is definitely worth your money and time spent on the island! Mahola! Lee

The summit of Mauna Kea was a special experience! マウナケア山頂は特別の体験でした！

Reviewed by: ローマ風呂

In late March, my family of four participated in the Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour. The 13-seater bus was fully booked with Japanese tourists. The ride to the Onizuka Visitor Center was smooth along the paved road. At the visitor center, we had a bento box and miso soup, put on our warm clothing, and then ascended the unpaved road all the way up to 4,200 meters. The summit was very cold, and the wind exceeded 20 meters per second. The landscape resembled Mars, providing an experience that you can't have in Japan. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't favorable, and we couldn't enjoy a clear starry sky, but our guide, Mr. Kono, searched various spots to show us the stars. We later revisited Mauna Kea State Park on another day with a rental car. That time, we were blessed with clear skies and were able to enjoy a number of stars that can't be seen in Japan. Thank you very much, Mr. Kono, for everything.

3月後半、家族4人でマウナケア山頂　サンセット＆星空ツアーに参加。13人乗りのバスは日本人で満席に。途中、オニズカビジターセンターまでは、舗装された道路で順調。ビジターセンターでお弁当に味噌汁、防寒着を着て、舗装されていない道路を登り、一路4200mまで。頂上はとても寒く、また風も風速20mを超える状況。また、風景も火星を思わせるような景観で日本では経験できない環境を体験することができました。あいにく天気には恵まれず、晴天の星空を楽しむことはできませんでしたが、何とか星空を見せようとガイドのコンノさんはいろんな場所を探してくれました。途中立ち寄っていただいたマウナケア州立公園には、別の日に自分たちでレンタカーで再訪。そのときは晴天に恵まれて、日本では見られない数の星を楽しむことができました。コンノさん、いろいろありがとうございました。

I am very satisfied overall. 総合的に大満足です。

Reviewed by: ともこ

Mauna Kea was closed due to bad weather, so unfortunately, I couldn't reach the summit, but I was satisfied with the beautiful sunset along the beach and the starry sky afterward. At first, I considered joining a different English tour (which was cheaper), but I was glad to hear the explanations of the constellations in Japanese. Also, I was comforted by the miso soup that came with the bento (laughs). I saw a big rainbow after the rain, so overall, I was very satisfied. However, I still want to go up Mauna Kea, so I plan to go for a revenge trip during the dry season next time!

マウナケアは悪天候のため閉鎖されており、残念ながら頂上までは上がれませんでしたが、ビーチ沿いできれいな夕日、その後星空も見れたので、満足です。
最初は別の英語ツアーにしようかとも思っていたのですが（そっちのほうが安い）、星座の説明なんかは日本語で聞いてよかったです。
あとお弁当についていた味噌汁に癒されました（笑）。
雨上がりの大きな虹も見えましたし、総合的に大満足です。
でもやっぱりマウナケアには上りたいので、今度は乾季に、リベンジに行きたいと思います！

Deluxe Volcanoes National Park Experience, Black Sand Beach & Restaurant Dinner

Must do volcano tour

Reviewed by: Pete

On Friday March 16th, 2018 my family and I attended the Deluxe Volcano Night Lava Viewing with Dinner at Kilauea Lodge & Stargazing Tour that also included the coffee trip to the Kona Joe Coffee Farm, Punaluu Bakery and the Black sand beach. To start, I have to say our guide Uncle Jim made the trip well worth the time and money we invested. He was prompt, courteous, knowledgeable and most of all both engaging and entertaining. From the history, folklore and ancient stories to the general knowledge of Hawaiian culture there was rarely a moment where we were not enjoying the tour. We started out from our resort and Jim began to answer our questions and tell us stories of the landscape (lava, terraforming and the effects of adding green spaces to the resorts on the climate) and a Captain Cook story. As we moved on and picked up the other guests the stories continued as he pointed out various points of interest and beaches we may want to visit on our own. Some great aspect to the tour were the mythical stories of the gods and goddesses and how they actually mirror what it believed to be the realities of the Hawaiian Islands today. Each of the stops we made were better than promised, lunch and dinner were both great and Uncle Jim having a telescope for the night time volcano viewing was great. Some of the highlights from our perspective were walking down a lava tube, walking through the steam vents, picturesque picnic lunch and the gathering of stones to gift to the volcano later in the day with a chant led by Uncle Jim. And I can’t forget the smell of the Huli Huli chicken BBQ that he teased us with that I never did actually get back to try, maybe on our next visit. I would recommend this as a must do tour on your trip to the big island and ask for Uncle Jim, he will make the tour that much better.

I was a bit worried about whether we would be able to see the sunset and the starry sky due to the cloudy weather, but our guide, Matsuzaki-san, really lifted our spirits. The members I was with were also fun and had great energy, making the car ride enjoyable. Matsuzaki-san was incredibly friendly and provided detailed explanations, answering any questions with precision and humor, which made me feel that choosing this tour was a great decision.

We were able to see a beautiful sunset and starry sky, and I truly appreciated that Matsuzaki-san even taught my daughter how to use her camera. Thank you so much! I would love to participate again!

The access to the summit was closed due to strong winds, resulting in the cancellation of the tour. Since it was a 2:30 PM tour, I feel like the whole day was wasted. I heard that the road had been closed for 3 to 4 days prior and was also closed from the morning of the day itself, so I wish I had been informed in advance via email or other means. If I had known, I could have chosen other activities.

It seems that the weather wasn't very good the day before, but on the day I participated, the guide mentioned that we were able to see a beautiful sunset and starry sky for the first time in a while. The scenery was truly stunning. At the summit of Mauna Kea, the wind was very strong, and I felt that the perceived temperature was quite low, but since they lent us warm clothing (with ski pants!), I didn't feel too cold (although my friend who was with me seemed to be quite cold). The guide's stories in the car were also enjoyable, and I made great memories.

前日まではあまりお天気が良くなかったようでしたが、参加した日は久しぶりにきれいな夕日と星空を見ることができたと、ガイドの方がおっしゃっていました。本当にきれいな景色でした。マウナケアの山頂は、とても風が強くて、体感温度がだいぶ低かったように思いますが、防寒着（スキーズボン付き！）を貸していただけたので、それほど寒さも感じませんでした（同行の友人はかなり寒かったようですが）。

BEST TOUR ON THE BIG ISLAND

Reviewed by: Jenn

Hands down the best tour on the Big Island. Brett was our tour guide and he was fantastic. Informative, funny, friendly, professional, he went above and beyond to make the experience amazing. Seeing the volcano at night is something everyone must do, but having a tour makes it much more enjoyable. This tour included seeing rainbow falls, Big Island Candy Co, lunch, and several spots at the Volcano National Park and a very nice dinner. 100% worth it.

Reviewed by: にんにん

The guide explained at the meeting point, "We cannot go to the summit due to snow. You can cancel if you wish," but I decided to join as it was also a tour around the island. While observing several whale spouts at a viewing point, we received word that we could go to the summit, so our plans changed suddenly. I never expected to see and step on snow in Hawaii at the summit, where remnants of yesterday's snowfall remained! It was such a strange experience! We watched the sunset from the snowy summit and then descended, stopping for stargazing along the way. Unfortunately, there were clouds, but we managed to find some clear skies. From sea level to the summit at 4,205 meters, where the oxygen level is half that of the plains, the temperature dropped from 30 degrees to -2 degrees. It was a tour that offered a rare experience! The guide's dedicated support and enjoyable commentary made the tour even more fun.

ガイドさんから集合時に「積雪で山頂には行けません。キャンセル可能です」の説明がありましたが、島内ツアーを兼ねて参加しました。クジラが見れるポイントで数匹の潮吹きを観察していたら「山頂に行ける」との連絡があり急遽予定変更。昨日の雪が残る山頂でまさかハワイで雪を見て踏みしめるとは！何か不思議な経験です！雪の残る山頂からサンセットを見て下山し途中星空観測、生憎の雲でしたが晴れ間を見つけて出来ました。海抜0mから酸素が平地の半分になる4,205mの山頂、気温は30度からー2度、めったに体験できないツアーでした！ガイドさんの献身的なサポートと楽しい案内がツアーをより楽しくしてくれました。

Tears! Tears! 涙！涙！

Reviewed by: jeke143

It's been years since I've felt this moved. Our guide, M, carefully taught us about local gourmet food, traffic rules, and manners. The next day, we had a long drive to Hilo, so it was very helpful. M was fun to talk to and very considerate, making the bus ride relaxing. We had lunch at the Onizuka Center, and although I had no expectations, it was unexpectedly delicious (laughs). I had eaten a hearty lunch beforehand, so I wasn't hungry, which was a bit disappointing.

Then, it was time for the hike. I was so sleepy—just incredibly tired. M tried to keep us awake with conversation, but I was still drowsy. Somehow, we made it to the summit. "Is this Earth? Is this Hawaii?" I couldn't find the words. M became a guide because she participated in this tour. She said, "My life changed." While watching the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds with my wife, I cried. Somehow, the worries I had seemed small and insignificant when I saw that sunset. (Though once I return to Japan, I'll probably be back to worrying about little things again.)

After that, we moved down to stargaze. At first, there weren't many stars, and I thought, "Well, this is it." But gradually, more stars appeared, and before I knew it, I was looking at a sky sprinkled with stars, and I cried again. The sunset was amazing, but the starry sky was also heart-stirring. M carefully explained the constellations using a laser pointer. Along the way, the warm tea and biscuits were delicious too. Finally, after we got off the bus, M dashed back to deliver my forgotten sunglasses. I was moved that she took the time to check for lost items. I can't express how much I was touched. The other participants were also very well-mannered, making it a very comfortable experience. Next time, I want to go to Mauna Kea with Masashi.

こんなに、感動したのは何年ぶりだろう。ｶﾞｲﾄﾞの方（Mちゃん）は、地元のｸﾞﾙﾒや交通ﾙｰﾙ、ﾏﾅｰ等を丁寧に教えてくれた。翌日、ﾋﾛまでﾛﾝｸﾞﾄﾞﾗｲﾌﾞだったので参考になった。話が楽しく、思いやりのある方でﾊﾞｽの中もﾘﾗｯｸできた。ｵﾆｽﾞｶｾﾝﾀｰでお弁当を食べたが、全く期待していなかったが、予想外（笑い）に美味しかった。ﾗﾝﾁをしっかり食べてきて、おなかがすいてなかったので残念でした。
そして、いざ、登山。『眠い』とにかく眠い。Mちゃんがいろいろ眠気さましに、お話しするが眠い。
なんとか、山頂につきました。『ここ、地球？』『ここﾊﾜｲ？』言葉にならないです。Mちゃんがｶﾞｲﾄﾞさんに転職したのは、このﾂｱｰに参加したから。『人生かわりました』とのこと。雲海に沈みゆく夕陽を家内と見ながら、泣いてました。なんか、悩んでることなんか、このサンセットおみると、小さく、どうでもよいことののうに思えてきました。（日本に帰りしばらくするとまた、小さいことに悩む日々ですが）そのあと、下に移動して星空観賞。最初は、あまり星がなく、『まあ、こんなもんか』と思っていたら、徐々に星がでてきて、気が付けば、お星さまを振りまいた空を見、また涙。ｻﾝｾｯﾄも最高だったけど、星空も心揺さぶる。ﾚｰｻﾞｰﾎﾟｲﾝﾀｰを使いながら、丁寧に星座の説明をしてくれる。途中で暖かい紅茶とﾋﾞｽｹｯﾄも美味しかった。最後に、ﾊﾞｽを降た後、Mちゃんが猛ダッシュ、で『ｻﾝｸﾞﾗｽ！』と忘れ物と届けてくれた。ちゃんと忘れ物の確認してることに、ここでも感動。どれだけ、感動したんだろう。他の参加者の方も、ﾏﾅｰが良く、とても快適でした。今度は、ﾏｻｼでﾏｳﾅｹｱに行きたいですね。

Personally, this was my third time at the summit of Mauna Kea, after visiting 20 years ago and 8 years ago. The experience was similar, including hotel pickup and a break at the Onizuka Visitor Center. However, this time, the guide, Big JIN, was entertaining, making the sunset and stargazing enjoyable. Although it was said to feel like -20 degrees, the rental cold-weather gear provided was perfect. Additionally, there was a unique service for this tour where they later shared photos taken against the backdrop of the sunset at the summit and stunning starry sky photos that are difficult for travelers to capture online. If you're in Hawaii, the Mauna Kea summit sunset and stargazing is an absolute must. Highly recommended!

個人的には20年前、8年前、そして今回の3度目のマウナケア山頂でした。
ホテルピックアップから途中のオニズカ・ビジターセンターの休憩など内容は一緒でした。ただ今回は日本人（ビッグJINさん）のガイドが面白くて楽しくサンセット・星空観察が出来ました。体感温度ー20度と言われましたがレンタルしてくれる防寒着も完ぺきでした。また多分このツアー独自のサービスでしょうが山頂の夕日バックの写真や旅行者では撮りにくい満天の星空写真を後日ネットで配信するなどのサービスがついていました。

Ultimately, we couldn't reach the summit of the mountain and had to stop at the Onizuka Center. Like others have shared in their experiences, I understand that it's a natural occurrence, but the $15 refund is simply too inadequate. If it had been a bit more, it would have eased my feelings. Additionally, my elderly mother was exhausted from being in the car for such a long time.

If the refund policy doesn't change or if there are no suggestions for leaving midway, I cannot recommend this to others.

There were other tour participants who mentioned they had to make a second attempt after not being able to go up the day before, and they felt like they wasted two days.

The only enjoyable part was listening to Mr. Jin, who guided the tour, share his knowledge in the car. He was very knowledgeable and spoke in detail about flowers, history, and volcanoes.

Aside from that, to be honest, nothing about this experience is worth the price. I just want to inform those who will participate in the future that not being able to go up is a disaster!

I was moved by the wonderful sunset and the sky full of stars. 素晴らしい夕日と空いっぱいの星で感動

Reviewed by: コビトカバ

What a wonderful tour to drive to the summit higher than Mount Fuji and observe the sunset and starry sky! Experienced staff will take you close to the summit of Mauna Kea while helping you acclimatize to the altitude to avoid altitude sickness. You can also see the Subaru Telescope at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan in Hawaii up close, enjoying the sunset and taking photos in the clear air.

To avoid any issues with astronomical observation, you will descend from the summit within 30 minutes of sunset and stop at a suitable location for stargazing and photography of constellations. The low light pollution allows you to see many stars. This is undoubtedly a unique tour that I highly recommend for the Big Island.

There are regular restroom breaks on the way to the summit, and there are portable toilets at the summit. While some may have reservations about using portable toilets, a little patience is necessary. On the day I went, there was no wind and it wasn't too cold, but at an altitude of over 4200 meters, your body can get cold after a long stay, so I recommend bringing a compact down jacket and a hat.

Since only 200 people can reach the summit in a day, it's a good idea to make your tour reservation early.

富士山より高い山頂へ車で行き夕日と星空観測、なんとステキなツアーでしょう♪
慣れたスタッフが高山病にならないよう高度に順応させながらお客様をマウナケアの山頂近くへ連れて行ってくれます。
そして日本の誇る国立天文台ハワイ観測所すばる望遠鏡も間近に望み、澄んだ空気の中を沈んでゆく太陽を眺め写真撮影。
天文観測の障害とならないよう日没から30分以内に山頂を降り途中の星空観測に適した場所で星座の観測と写真撮影をしてくれます。
チリが少ない環境はとても多くの星を見ることが出来ます。
ハワイ島ならではのツアーであることは間違いなく是非お勧めします。

山頂に行くまでもこまめにトイレタイムが設けられ、山頂には簡易トイレが設置されています。簡易トイレは抵抗のある人もいるかと思いますが、そこはちょっと我慢も必要です。
行った日は風も無くそれほどの冷え込みでは無いとのことでしたが、やはり高度4200ｍ超えると長時間の滞在は体が冷えてきますので、自分でもコンパクトにしまえるダウンや帽子等用意される事をお勧めします。

1日に200人までしか登頂できないとのこと、早めのツアー予約も心掛けると良いかと思います。

I was constantly moved by the beautiful sea of clouds, the sunset, and the starry sky. The explanation about the starry sky was also very enjoyable, and the cold didn't bother me at all. I'm really glad I participated.

とっても綺麗な雲海に夕日と星空に感動しっぱなし。星空説明もとても楽しく、寒さなんてへっちゃらです。参加してほんとよかった。

It was really great!! めっちゃよかった!!

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. (^_-)-☆

数時間の間にかなりの標高差と気候の違いを体験するので、健康面で不安のある方の参加はお勧め出来ません。
健康であっても、ガイドさんの話をよく聞いて、注意事項は厳守しましょう。
そうすれば、素晴らしい体験ができますよ。(^_-)-☆

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。

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。

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……。

It was a scenery that seemed to change my life! 人生が変わりそうな景色でした！

Reviewed by: maotaro

This trip was solely for the purpose of this tour, and I was moved to be able to see the sunset and the starry sky! Thank you, Matsuzaki, for driving so hard despite the challenges of working with nature; I had a great time! I think it was lucky that we were able to reach the summit. It might be better to apply with that understanding during this season. Even just the drive along the expansive mountainside and the starry sky are worth participating for!

今回はこのツアーだけが目的の旅行でしたので、夕陽と星空を見る事が出来て感動しました！自然が相手のお仕事で大変なのに、一生懸命車を走らせていただきました松崎さん、ありがとうございました楽しかったです！
山頂へ行けたのはluckyだったのだと思います。この時期はそれを理解した上で申し込んだ方が良いかな？広陵とした山腹のドライブ、そして星空だけでも、参加する価値は有ります！
