Under the Milky Way...! 天の川の下で・・・！

Reviewed by: HOPE

I participated in a tour on the day of the new moon! After reading reviews of various tour companies, I chose this highly-rated tour. It lived up to the expectations set by the reviews, and I am very satisfied.

Since it was a new moon, the Milky Way was clearly visible without any moonlight, and I was able to see shooting stars, which was a very precious experience. My friends, who only speak English, were well taken care of, and I felt the kindness and hospitality of the guides.

The free photo download service was also a wonderful perk! Thank you to our guides, JIN and Macchan!

新月の日にツアーに参加しました！色々なツアー会社さんのレビューを読み、一番評価の高かった当ツアーを利用させていただきました。レビュー通りの期待を裏切らないツアーで、とても満足です。
新月という事で、月の光が全くない中天の川もはっきり、流れ星も見る事が出来、とても貴重な体験を出来ました。一緒に行った友人がみんな英語しか話せない人たちという事で、友人に気配りもしてくださり、とても親切でホスピタリティ精神に溢れているなぁと思いました。
写真の無料ダウンロードサービスもとっても嬉しい特典です！
ガイドのJINさん、まっちゃん、ありがとうございました！

Private VIP Tour & Volcanoes National Park After Dark (from Hilo)

Fascinating Guided Tour of an Incredible Island

Reviewed by: Jen Bianco

We did not really know what to expect with this tour and was very pleased with our private VIP tour with Lee from Wild Orchid Tours. He showed us many hidden gems on the island, as well as gave us quite a lot of background info on Hawaiian culture. We came away well versed in the lore of Pele, the Volcano goddess and the history of Kīlauea's activity.

The visibility at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park was bad the day of our tour, but Lee came prepared with rain ponchos and walking sticks. We were thrilled he took us out to see the lava flow after sunset. We saw so much, the waterfalls don't seem worth mentioning.

The bonus is that Lee is fascinating himself. He's knows his Big Island, but that's just the beginning. After our tour, my friend and I almost wanted to extend our stay so we could take Lee and his wife, Renata, out to dinner.

Well worth the money. I highly recommend Wild Orchid Tours.

The sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea was also very wonderful, but it was a bit cold. During the stargazing, I saw the Milky Way for the first time in my life. The guide's explanations were easy to understand and entertaining. I was very satisfied to see various colored stars through the telescope, including Saturn's rings, Antares in Scorpius, and the stars of the Big Dipper, as well as the Andromeda Galaxy.

The best sunset and a sky full of stars. 最高のサンセットと満天の星空

Reviewed by: mia

Compared to Waikiki, the weather was not very good, and I was a bit worried, but by the time we reached the summit, it was clear skies! We were able to see the shining sunset and the Venus Belt that appeared after sunset.

The stargazing afterward was also wonderful, as we enjoyed a sky full of stars, including the Milky Way, the Southern Cross, and planets. It was truly a fantastic experience, and my friend and I were both deeply moved.

It gets really cold at the summit, so having Heattech would be a good idea.

ワイキキと比べるとあまり天気が良くなくて少し心配していたのですが､山頂に到着する頃には快晴！光輝くサンセットと日没後現れるビーナスベルトも見ることが出来ました｡
その後の星空観測も天の川や南十字星､惑星を含め満天の星空を楽しみました。
本当に素敵な体験で友達と二人感動しっぱなしでした｡
山頂は本当に寒いのでヒートテックがあると良いです。

Reviewed by: moririn

You can easily drive to the summit of Mauna Kea. You can acclimatize to the altitude while enjoying a bento, and they provide solid advice on breathing techniques. Watching the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds is truly moving! You might even forget to breathe... During the stargazing, you can see the Southern Cross and the Milky Way, and the explanations of the constellations were very easy to understand. They take great care in preparing warm clothing and drinks, allowing you to forget the cold and get lost in the starry sky! You can also capture such wonderful scenery in photos. If you have a DSLR but lack confidence, don't worry! They will carefully guide you on camera settings. Even if you can't take the photos yourself, a great photographer will capture the best shots for you. Thank you, Macchan, for taking care of us from the beginning to the end of the tour.

マウナケアの山頂まで楽々、車で登れます。高地順応もお弁当を食べながらでき、呼吸法のアドバイスもしっかりしてくれます。雲海に沈む夕陽を見ていると、本当に感動！息をするのも忘れてしまいそうになりますが・・・。星空観測では南十字星や天の川も見れて、星座の解説もすごくわかりやすかったです。防寒着から暖かい飲み物の準備など、気配りもばっちりで寒さも忘れて、星空に見惚れます！そんな素晴らしい景色を写真でも残せます。一眼レフを持っていても、いまいち自信のない方、大丈夫です！カメラの設定も丁寧に教えてくれます。自分で撮れなくても、名カメラマンがベストショットを撮ってくれます。

It truly felt like a breathtaking feature from a television program appeared right before us. The weather on the day we participated was fortunate, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful sunset from the mountaintop and a stunning starry sky.

Thank you for the wonderful time. Lastly, the miso soup served during dinner at the Onizuka Center was very delicious. If you're someone who gets cold easily, it might be a good idea to bring a neck warmer.

まさしくテレビ番組の絶景特集が目の前に現れた感じでした。私達が参加した日は天候にも恵まれたらしく、山頂でのサンセットも、星空も美しく最高の景色を拝むことができました。ガイドのじんさんも気さくで親切だったし、やまちゃんの星空の説明もとても分かり易くウイットにとんでいて、リラックスして楽しい気持ちですごすことができたのも良かったです♡素敵な時間をありがとうございました。最後になりましたが、オニヅカセンターでの夕食時に出していただいたお味噌汁、とっても美味しかったです。寒がりの方は、ネックウォーマーを持参されるとよいかもしれません。

I was moved by the wonderful sunset and starry sky! 素晴らしいサンセットと星空に感動！

Reviewed by: コーハイ先輩

For our 25th wedding anniversary, we visited the Big Island of Hawaii for the first time. We heard about a sunset and stargazing tour, and I felt we had to go, so we chose the highly-rated tour from "Masashi Nature School" among many options.

On the day of the tour, we were picked up from our hotel around 3:30 PM. We boarded the last two seats of the 13-person capacity van. There was a bit of tension about climbing to an altitude of 4200 meters, which is higher than Mount Fuji, but our guide, Jin, reassured us that we would be fine since we could drive to the summit and would properly acclimatize.

The shield volcano has a gentle slope, so it didn’t feel like we were climbing much, yet we quickly surpassed 2000 meters in elevation. Along the way, we took commemorative photos and arrived at the Onizuka Visitor Center (at 2800 meters). We had a dinner of bento and miso soup to help with acclimatization. The temperature had dropped, so the warm miso soup was very welcome.

Finally, we attacked the summit! Although we were just sitting in the car, it was quite easy. Upon reaching the summit, we saw the sunset over a sea of clouds. The colors of the sky changed moment by moment, and then came the sunset. It was breathtaking!

After other tours descended the mountain, we followed suit. Jin had options for stargazing spots based on the day's weather and conditions, and he chose the best location for us. Although the moon was somewhat bright at 10 days old, the sky was filled with stars. Jin provided explanations about the stars, and my childhood passion for astronomy was reignited. We were able to observe the craters on the moon and the rings of Saturn through a telescope. It was also great to see the Southern Cross clearly. We took commemorative photos in various poses against the starry backdrop.

Blessed with good weather, we thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful sunset and stargazing. Thanks to Jin's thoughtful care, we had a truly enjoyable time. Thank you!

結婚25周年の記念旅行で初めて訪れたハワイ島。
サンセットと星空観測ツアーがあると聞いて、是非行かねばと思い、数あるツアーの中から評判の良かった「マサシネイチャースクール」さんのツアーを選択。
当日のピックアップはホテルの場所柄15時半過ぎ。定員13人の最後の二席に乗り込む。
これから富士山より高い標高4200Mの山に登るという緊張感もあったが、山頂まで車で行けるし、高度順応のちゃんとやっていくので大丈夫というガイドの仁さんの説明で一安心。
盾状火山で道が緩やかなため、あまり登っている感覚はないが、あっと言う間に標高2000Mを超えていく。
途中、記念撮影などしてオニズカ・ビジターセンター（標高2800M）に到着。高度順応を兼ねたお弁当とお味噌汁の夕食。さすがに気温も下がってきたので、温かいお味噌汁がありがたい。
いよいよ山頂にアタック！とはいってもこっちは車に座っているだけなので楽チン楽チン。
山頂に着くと雲海の上に傾きかけた夕日。空の色が刻一刻と変化していく。そして、サンセット。感動！
他のツアーが山を下りた後、我々も続く。仁さんはその日の天候やコンディションに会わせた星空観測スポット候補を持っているそうで、今回もベストの場所をチョイス。
月齢10日の月がやや明るいものの、空には満天の星空が広がる。仁さんによる星空の説明。小さい頃からの天文ファンの血がたぎる。 望遠鏡で月面のクレーターや土星の輪も観測することが出来た。南十字星が大きくはっきり見えたのも良かった。星空をバックにして思い思いのポーズでの記念撮影も。
天候にも恵まれ、素晴らしいサンセットと星空を堪能。仁さんの細やかなお心遣いのおかげでとても楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来た。ありがとうございます！

We participated as a couple at the end of May. It was the best starry sky and elevation experience of our lives. It's definitely worth taking the time to reach the summit of Mauna Kea (the transportation is by car, and the guide's stories during the drive are so interesting that it doesn't feel burdensome at all). The power of the Subaru Telescope we stopped by along the way is also impressive. If you want to fully enjoy the nature of the Big Island, this is a tour you must join.

５月末に夫婦で参加しました。今までの人生の中で一番の星空と標高を経験しました。時間をかけてマウナケア山頂まで行く価値は十分にあります（移動は車ですし，車中のガイドさんのお話が面白いので全く苦になりません）。途中に立ち寄ったすばる望遠鏡の迫力にも圧巻です。ハワイ島の自然を漫喫したければ，必ず参加すべきツアーです。

It drizzled along the way, and I thought we might not see the stars, but as we ascended, the weather improved, and thanks to the rain, we were able to take pictures with a rainbow in the background. The sunset and stargazing at the summit were truly beautiful. They provided a thorough explanation of the constellations, and I completely forgot my worries and enjoyed myself. I did feel a bit lightheaded near the summit, but I recovered quickly. I'm already thinking about which tour to choose for my next visit to the Big Island.

Reviewed by: Laura & Djani Drocic

I must start this review with big Mahalo to our tour guide Jim Carrey, you made this tour great and memorable for my wife Laura and myself. My suggestion would be for anyone interested in a great tour on the Big Island that is focused on cultural, geological, flora and fauna ecosystems of the island to book this tour for the beginning part of their stay, since it will open a number of the other visits and adventure that one can do on their own. Bring a camera and warm clothing, but if you forget your jacket don't worry your tour guide Jim is prepared with a number of coats to lend to those that had forgotten theirs. This whole day tour is packed with interesting place to visit, local folklore and legends. Jim is such a great narrator that makes the whole Hawaiian culture alive during the tour. You will be introduced to multiple Hawaiian chants, songs and legends during the entire day. Food is exquisite and plentiful, tastefully prepared to satisfied everyones need and desire. The crown jewl of this tour is night visit to Volcanic National Park for night lava viewing and star gazing. Jim is so knowledgeable in field of celestial observations and he comes prepared with a strong pair of binoculars that are powerful enough to give you glance of lava inside crater and to offer great view on planets and constellations visible from the craters edge.
Once again Mahalo to Jim Carrey and his company for offering us a unique view on Hawaiian culture and beautiful eco-system that is so different then anywhere on the planet.

When we left the hotel, I was a bit worried about the clouds covering Mauna Kea, but the tour guide reassured us, saying, "Given the look of these clouds, as the temperature drops, the clouds will likely lower as well, so I believe the view above the clouds will be good." I felt relieved.

While we were in the car, I enjoyed the comfortable scenery while listening to the guide's gentle explanations about the Big Island.

Upon reaching the summit, we were greeted with a sunset that was even more magnificent than I had imagined. I felt incredibly happy to receive such energy and to be able to appreciate it. It was truly moving, and I realized that it undoubtedly gave me vitality for my future life.

As the sun set and the brightness of the moon filled the sky, the stargazing experience was also wonderful. I completely understand why this is the number one tour.

The sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea was very satisfying, so I participated again on my third trip to the Big Island. I chose to join Masashi Nature School this time because they offered stargazing at a higher elevation, rather than at the Onizuka Visitor Center.

The photos taken near the Subaru Telescope and during the sunset were varied and well done, and I appreciated being able to download the tour camera photos. I was also happy to have photos taken with the starry sky as a backdrop, and the red clouds from the Kilauea crater were captured as well.

While other companies only provided down jackets, this time the down overalls were warm too. Konno's stargazing explanations were wonderful, and I enjoyed the tour without getting bored. Thank you, Konno! I had a great time and downloaded the photos.

Participating in Masashi's tour this time was extremely satisfying compared to my previous two experiences with other companies.

マウナケア山頂からのサンセットは他の２社のツアーに参加し、大変満足できるものだったので、ハワイ島3回目の今回も参加をしました。
今回参加のマサシネイチャースクールを選んだのは、Onizukaビジターセンター近くでの星空観賞ではなく、もっと標高の高いところでの星空観賞をうたっていたからでした。
スバル天文台近くでの写真、サンセットの時も色々なバージョンでの撮影をしていただき、さらにツアーカメラでの写真をダウンロードできるのも良い点です。
他社と比べての高高度での星空観賞に加え、星空を背景の写真を撮っていただいてダウンロードできたのも嬉しかったです。キラウエアの火口の赤い雲も写ってました。
他社はダウンジャケットだけでしたが、今回はダウンのサロペットも温かかったです。
Konnoさんの星空解説も素晴らしく、ツアー途中も退屈することなく楽しみました。Konnoさん、ありがとうございました。大変楽しみましたよ！写真もダウンロードしましたよ。

Although my own camera didn't capture it well, I was pleased to receive beautiful photos taken with a great camera through the download service! I had always been curious about the observatory with the Subaru Telescope after seeing it on TV, so I was happy to get some photos even though we couldn't go inside. It was a truly well-organized tour, and I was very satisfied. I highly recommend it to anyone who is considering joining!

ツアーは満員でしたが、細かいところまで気配りいただいてすごく満足です。
ところどころで車をおりての写真撮影の時間をとってくださり（どこも絶景です）、ハワイ島についてのいろんな小話を聞けたり楽しかったです。
何よりマウナケア山頂からの夕陽と、雲ひとつない星空は絶景でした！！
写真も自分のカメラでは全然でしたが、とっても良いカメラで撮影したのをDLサービスがあったのできれいな写真がいただけて満足です！
すばる望遠鏡のある天文台をテレビでみてずっと気になっていたので（中には入れませんが）写真がとれて嬉しかったです。
至れり尽くせりのツアーで本当に満足でした。迷っている方には是非とも参加をお勧めします！

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

Incredible! A natural planetarium! 感動！天然のプラネタリウム！

Reviewed by: dama

In April, we participated in a honeymoon trip. While searching for tours online, I stumbled upon the "Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour." It seemed to have good reviews, so I signed up for it to create some memorable experiences. We usually don't have the opportunity to gaze at the night sky and don't have much knowledge about astronomy, but as the tour date approached, our excitement grew about what kind of scenery we would see at one of the world's top stargazing spots.

When we arrived at the hotel lobby at the designated time, we were greeted by an incredibly high-energy guide! At first, we were a bit taken aback by his enthusiasm, but as we listened to the non-stop chatter from our tour guide, Macchan, on the bus, we gradually got swept up in his pace.

Mauna Kea is over 4,000 meters high, but we learned that we could take a bus all the way to the summit. At the Onizuka Center, where we stopped for a break, there were many other groups visiting for the sunset tour as well. While resting at the Onizuka Center, we enjoyed a delicious bento box and warm miso soup, and after a quick break, we were lent some warm clothing and set off again towards the summit.

Much of the road along the way was unpaved, making it a bit daunting for individuals to come on their own, but thanks to our experienced tour guide, we reached the summit without feeling anxious.

When we arrived at the summit, the sun was just beginning to set, and we spent some time taking photos with the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds as our backdrop. After taking a few commemorative pictures, we descended to the stargazing spot.

As we watched the night sky gradually darken, an unprecedented number of stars began to appear, creating a truly natural planetarium! We looked at Jupiter and its four moons through a telescope, and as we admired the vividly visible constellations in all directions, time flew by. Our tour guide, Macchan, pointed out the stars with a laser pointer and explained the origins of the constellations in a clear and engaging manner.

After stargazing, we took a restroom break at the Onizuka Center and listened to songs related to stars chosen by Macchan as we descended. It became a wonderful memory of our honeymoon. This is a tour I would definitely want to participate in again if I visit the Big Island!

４月に新婚旅行で参加しました。ネットでツアーを検索している時になんとなく見つけた゛マウナケア山頂　サンセット＆星空観測ツアー”。評判がよさそうだったとで、旅の思い出作りにとなんとなく申し込みました。普段は夜空をじっくりみる機会もなく、天体の知識もない私たちですが、ツアーの日が近づくにつれ、世界有数の天体観測スポットでどんな景色がみられるのかと期待に胸が膨らんでいきました。
宿泊していたホテルのロビーに指定された時間に行くと、最初から超ハイテンションのガイドさんが！最初はそのハイテンションさに引き気味であった私たちも、バスの中で途切れることのないツアーガイドのまっちゃんのトークを聴いているうちに、徐々にまっちゃんのペースに巻き込まれていきました。

4000ｍを超えるマウナケアですが、なんとバスで山頂まで行けるとのこと。途中で休憩のために立ち寄ったオニヅカセンターでは、他にもたくさんのグループがサンセットツアーに訪れていました。オニヅカセンターで休憩中においしいお弁当と温かいお味噌汁をいただき、一服した後に防寒具を貸してもらって、再び山頂に向けて出発しました。
途中の路は舗装されていないところも多く、個人で来るには躊躇されるような道でしたが、経験豊富なツアーガイドの方のおかげで、不安な気持ちになることもなくあっという間に山頂につきました。

山頂に到着したときは丁度日が沈みかけており、雲海に沈んでいく夕日をバックに写真を撮って時間をすごしました。ひととおり記念写真を撮った後に、下山し星空観測スポットまで下山しました。

徐々に暗くなっていく夜空を眺めていると、いままで見たことがない数の星が次々と現れてきて、まさに天然のプラネタリウム！でした。天体望遠鏡で木星と４つの衛星をみたり、鮮やかに360°全方向にみられる星座達を眺めているうちにあっという間に時間は過ぎていきました。ツアーガイドのまっちゃんは星空をレーザーポインターで指し示しながら、丁寧にわかりやすく星座の由来などについて説明してくれました。

星空観測の後はオニヅカセンターでのトイレ休憩を挟みながら、まっちゃんチョイスの星に関わる歌謡曲を聴きながら下山しました。新婚旅行の良い思い出になりました。ハワイ島にきたら是非また参加したいツアーです。
