Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation

Stellar!

Reviewed by: Ultrasonics21

It was a very educational tour with a breathtaking view. I just expected astronomy but the tour guide knew a great deal about volcanos, geology and island plant and animal life as well. The guide was awesome and I love taking tours with someone as trained and passionate about his work as this guy was. The food was so-so but it was hot and ready. The bus was cramped but it got us there and had big windows for great viewing. Once at the top, the observatories were incredible to look at as they opened up for evening viewing. The view of the sunset was also breathtaking, and not just from the lack of oxygen on top of the mountain. Once we headed back down for stargazing, our guides did a great job of pointing out astronomy as we used there 11 inch telescopes. Very great tour and highly recommended!

Manua Kea Summit and Stargazing

Reviewed by: Neil Wright

As a family with teenagers this trip catered to our needs. Our trip up the mountain was very good and our stop at the visitors centre for our meal gave us a chance to acclimatize before moving onto the summit. We made it to the summit and saw a wonderful sunset before moving onto some stargazing. Our artic jackets were more than handy and we arrived back in Kona by 11pm.

ワイピオ渓谷 乗馬ツアー 絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

"Exciting first horseback riding!" 「ドキドキの初乗馬!」

Reviewed by: fumi

In conclusion, I had a great time!
I'm not very good at English. My friend who joined me doesn't speak any English at all...
So I was quite anxious before going.
But when we arrived, we were given a consent form in Japanese!
I read it carefully and signed it. There was a section at the end about wearing a helmet, stating that if you don't wear it, they won't take responsibility in case of an accident, so I marked "yes" for wearing it. However, someone said, "What do you think? Adults usually don't wear it!" So I casually said, "Oh, then No!" and decided not to wear it.
The kids were wearing helmets, but no adults were, although I recommend wearing one if you're worried since it can be bumpy. However, there were no incidents of anyone falling off or almost falling off.

You can't take your belongings while riding, so I think it's best to leave everything except water and a compact camera in the rental car. We thought we could carry our backpacks, but we were told to "leave them!" and ended up placing them on a shelf in the stable.

The riding instructions are in English, but they also use some broken Japanese in between. I felt there was less to worry about than I expected.
While riding, once we started walking, the guide would shout instructions like "fumi! right! left!" if there was any concern. When they were shouting something in Japanese, I thought they were saying something to us and listened closely.

It was my first time riding. At first, my horse was quite restless, which made me anxious, but gradually we connected and were able to enjoy the ride.
It felt longer than I had anticipated.

I was thrilled to see a giant (bigger than a person's face!) bright blue frog climbing a tree!

I had a lot of fun!
However, the next day my butt was sore (laughs).

If I go to the Big Island again, I definitely want to participate again!

結論から言うと、とっても楽しかったです!
自分は英語があまり得意ではありません。一緒に参加した友達は英語全くできず…。
なので行く前はとても不安でいました。
でも行って受付で渡されるのは、日本語の同意書でした!
よく読んでサイン。最後のところにヘルメットについての同意があるのですが、
着用しないともし万が一の時の責任は負いませんよ、的なことが書いておるので、着用するに○をして提出したのですが「どうする?大人はあんまりしないかな!」って言われて、「あ、じゃぁNo!」って言ってあっさり着用しないことにしてしまいました。
お子さんはかぶってましたが、大人は誰もかぶっていませんでしたが、揺れるので心配な方は着用をお勧めします。でも、落馬した人も、しそうだった人もいませんでした。

荷物は持って乗馬できないので、水とコンパクトカメラ以外はレンタカーに置いて行くといいと思います。自分たちはリュックは背負えるだろうと持って行ったのですが、「置いて!」って言われて、馬小屋の棚に置いて行くことになりました。

乗馬の説明も、英語になりますが、合間合間で、片言の日本語を使って教えてくれます。
思ったより心配することはなかったなという印象です。
乗馬し、歩き始めてからも馬が「fumi!みぎ!ひだり!」などと心配な時はガイドさんが大きな声で指示してくれます。日本語で何か叫んでいるときは私たちに何か言ってるなって思って聞いてました。

乗馬も初めて。最初は自分の乗った馬がなかなか冷静になってくれず焦ったのですが、
次第に心を通わせられて(?)楽しく歩くことができました。
思っていたより時間が長く感じられました。

特大の(人の顔よりも大きい!)真っ青な蛙が木を登っていて、それを見れたのが最高にうれしかった!


とても楽しかったです!
ただ、翌日はお尻が筋肉痛です(笑)

次またハワイ島に行ったら、ぜひまた参加したいです!

  • このお店の奥に小さな事務所があり、そこが受付

  • こんな感じで基本的には一列で歩いていきます

  • 小川を渡ったり、

  • 足を上げないと濡れちゃうくらい深い川を歩いたり

  • 終わってから気づきましたが(笑)日本語の説明貼ってありました。

ハワイ島 乗馬ツアー コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬! <午前・午後/英語ガイド>by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

It met my expectations. 期待どおりでした。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This was my second time horseback riding at Kohala Coast. I remember it being quite cold during my previous visit since it was up in the mountains, but this time the weather was warm enough that a short-sleeve shirt was sufficient. I had a great time riding well-trained horses. We even got to canter uphill, and although the guide spoke English, it was totally fine if you didn't understand it—smiles go a long way! I highly recommend it.

ここのコハラコーストでの乗馬は2回目でした。

ワイピオ渓谷 乗馬ツアー 絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

Interesting!! おもしろい!!

Reviewed by: naonao

Our annual family trip to Hawaii. This time, we participated as a couple. Horseback riding is a regular optional activity in Hawaii. This time, we used Naalapa Staples for the first time. Usually, horseback riding gives the impression of well-behaved horses lined up quietly, but this course was interesting!! Not only did we cross a gently flowing river, but we also splashed through water deep enough to soak the horses' bellies, making us exclaim, "We're going through here!?" Along the way, we encountered wild horses, and our guide even decorated our hair with flowers, making it thrilling and very enjoyable. The ranch dogs accompanying us on the tour were also incredibly adorable.

毎年恒例のハワイ家族旅行。今回は、夫婦2人で参加しました。乗馬はハワイでの恒例オプショナル。今回はナアラパ・ステープルズを初めて利用しました。乗馬は、たいていお利口さんなよく人に慣れた馬が1列になって黙々と…というのが常な印象でしたが、このコースはおもしろい!!チョロチョロと流れる川を横切るだけでなく、「川って、ここを行くのっ!?」と馬の腹まで浸かるほどの水深をジャブジャブ。途中で野生の馬に遭遇したり、ガイドさんが花を髪に飾ってくれたりと、スリリングでとてもおもしろかったです。牧場の番犬たちが、一緒にツアーコースを回ってくれたのも何とも愛らしいです。

Waipio Valley Waterfalls & Horseback Riding Tour with Naalapa Stables [Closed]

Nice horses, pretty valley

Reviewed by: Mickey

The horses were very well kept, and decent training. Wrangler gave very good riding instructions (we are both experienced riders & recognized this). The valley is beautiful, but this ride basically just followed the road, so not the "trail ride" experience we were hoping for since were dodging vehicles (not lots, but it would have been nice to be off the road & in the woods).

Bite Me Sportfishing Trip - Kona Shared & Private Charters from Honokohau Harbor

Nice boat with a terrible crew!

Reviewed by: Justin

Went out with 13 year old son on this boat and ended up with multiple reasons to complain.
First let me say that the boat itself is very nice and my son thought it was really cool.

The problems were with the crew. The first thing that happened is we left late because the captain was late getting to the boat. All passengers were standing around for over 30 minutes while we waited for the captain to finally show up. This probably wouldn't have been the end of the world if we would have just stayed out on the water a little later but we actually ended up coming back a little bit early. Overall I paid for a trip and got shorted between 20-40 minutes. Both crew memebers smoked multiple times without even asking the passengers if they minded. With a kid on the boat this seems like it should have happened.
After being out on the water for an hour or so we arrived in an area that had a bunch of other boats. The captain had the deckhand put small rods out and we began catching 1 fish every 10-15 minutes. In an attempt to be polite I let the other 5 passengers catch a fish and chose to go last. After the 5th fish was caught the captain ask the deck hand "how many was that?" and recieved the relpy "that was five, we have one more". The captain then made the decision to leave this area to supposedly look for bigger fish. This was aggravating because I chose to let every one else catch theirs due to the fact the spot was producing consistenly. At the rate it was going it would have taken 10-15 minutes for me to catch my fish. The captains choice to supposedly go look for bigger fish was really just him starting to motor back towards the island to end the trip. We never saw any other fish and arrived back at the dock early.

Beautiful nature

Reviewed by: Chrissy

The horseback riding tour was great. You'll see beautiful nature but don't expect a "real" horseback riding tour. Although they ask you about your horseback riding experience, they mixes all experience levels. 12 year old girls who have ridden only once in their life joined our tour. So the ride itself was a bit boring but the Waipio Valley was beautiful.

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Dinner - Hawaii Forest & Trail

Expected too Much

Reviewed by: JMC

Good organization but a rather long ride to the top. Stargazing was only so-so. I expected that we would see the stars through one of the observatories located at that top but instead, about 20 of us took turns looking through a kids reflective telescope. Not very exciting. Air is rare up there so be prepared for the possibility of altitude sickness.

Enjoy nature to the fullest! Dive into the waterfall pool. 自然満喫!滝壺にダイブ。

Reviewed by: kayoty

This was my second trip to the Big Island. I was looking for something interesting to do with my parents and kids when I happened to become interested in a waterfall, which is a power spot, and decided to join a tour.

I was with a family from the West Coast of the United States during the tour. Although it was in English, we enjoyed nature by picking guava and kukui nuts, squeezing sugarcane juice, and discovering fish!

The highlight was swimming in the seventh waterfall pool and diving from a cliff, which truly felt like a return to childhood. The final lunch was at a breathtaking spot beyond a ranch. We were able to experience the grandeur of the Big Island, and both the kids and adults were very satisfied.

二回目のハワイ島。両親と子供と一緒に何か面白い体験はないかと探していましたら、たまたま滝=パワースポットに興味をもち、参加。
ツアーには、アメリカ西海岸からきたファミリーと一緒に。ツアーの間中、英語でしたが、グァバやククイナッツの実をとったり、サトウキビの汁をすったり、魚を発見したりと、自然満喫!
極めつけは、七つ目の滝壺で泳いだり、崖からダイブしたり、なんとも童心にかえったようか体験でした。
最後のランチも牧場を過ぎた絶景スポット。ビックアイランドの雄大さを体験でき、子供も大人も大満足でした。

Kohala Zipline Treetop Canopy Adventure with Optional Waterfall Swim Upgrade

THE BEST ZIPLINE EVENT ON THE BIG ISLAND

Reviewed by: Kathy

So many things make this the best zip line on the big island including NINE zips, the last one a tandem AND over 1100 ft long but the absolute best part was the tour guides Kalei and Kalani. In fact, Kalani was our ATV tour guide 4 years ago when we were last there. They made this a very fun adventure and encouraged my hubby who was fearful of heights; even he loved it, after the first one! Truly amazing scenery and very fun, patient, and experienced guides. Safety was definitely a priority for them but made our adventure extra special. Thank you Kalei and Kalani!!!

Hilo 8-Line Zipline & Suspension Bridge Rainforest Adventure with Free Photos

Zipe lining

Reviewed by: newbie to scuba

The garden had many varieties of plants. The zip rides were kind of short. There was also a suspension bridge we walked across. They need to add more and longer zip lines. The few seconds that we zipped across were hardly enough. The guides provided some fruit snacks from the trees as we walked between zip lines and talked about different trees. The water fall and the surrounding ranches with cows sleeping were a nice sight. Though those ranches do not belong to botanical gardens. Staff was very friendly and professional. I did not take Segway tour and chose instead to drive by myself to Hilo. Make sure to drive to Liliuokalani Park in Hilo when you are there. It was a very impressive Japanese garden design.

マウナケア山頂 サンセット&星空観測ツアー <午後/天体望遠鏡/夕食付/英語ガイド> by ハワイフォレスト&トレイル

There were many constellations. 多くの星座があったんだ

Reviewed by: 山田 紀子

Mauna Kea has been called the world's observatory. Nowadays, there are others, like the Hubble Space Telescope floating in space and those in Chile, South America. While in Japan, I knew there were many constellations from star charts, but I couldn't actually see them. When I went to the mountain and darkness fell, the first constellation I saw was Cassiopeia, with five stars visible at a very low position. That's right! This is Hawaii, around 20 degrees north latitude, so the circumpolar stars appear very low. The North Star is also at a height of 20 degrees, while where I live is at 35 degrees north latitude, so it appears at a height of 35 degrees. The Milky Way was clearly visible, and I was once again moved by how many stars there were. The Swan constellation was also clearly visible with the guide's explanation. On the way back in the car, looking east, I saw Orion about to rise from the mountain. The three stars in the middle were vertical to the mountain range. It is known that the three stars of Orion are at a 90-degree angle to the horizon when they rise and set, but this time, participating in this tour, I was able to confirm it for the first time. It was very cold, but there was a service for warm drinks, which was comforting.

マウナケア山は世界の天文台と呼ばれてきた。今ではその他、南米のチリや宇宙に浮いているハッブル望遠鏡もある。日本にいるときは星座早見盤では星座がたくさんあることは知っていたが、実際には見ることができなかった。山に行き、暗闇が訪れ、まず最初に見えたのが、カシオペア座、とても低い位置に5つの星が見えた。そうだ!ここはハワイ、北緯20度ぐらいだから周極性もとても低く見える。北極星も20度の高さ、わたしが住んでいるところは北緯35度だから35度高さに見える。銀河もくっきり見え、あらためて、こんなにも星があったんだ、と感動した。ハクチョウ座もガイドの説明で、きっちり見えた。帰りの車の中で、東の方向をみると、オリオン座が山から今にも登ろうとしていた。真ん中の三つ星が山並みと垂直になっていた。オリオン座の三つ星は、登るときと、沈む時には地平線と90度になることで知られていたが、今回、このツアーに参加して初めて、確認することができた。とても寒かったが、温かい飲み物のサービスがあり、ほっとさせられた。

We participated with a total of seven people: my parents in their late 60s to early 70s, their friends, and our family. Almost everyone was riding a horse for the first time. My mother was very worried because she struggles with exercise, but the horses were very gentle and friendly, and everyone enjoyed an hour and a half of horseback riding with the biggest smiles. The scenery was magnificent, and I think it's a very rare experience to be able to ride without a lead horse, even for beginners. The cats were adorable too!

The exhilaration of driving through breathtaking scenery is the best!
The hiking distance was just right, not too tough.
A 67-year-old American couple was able to walk it with ease.

However, I knew it was only in English.
During the hike, we stopped quite a bit for explanations, but we couldn't understand anything, so we felt a bit at a loss during that time.
It would definitely be more enjoyable if you could come with some English skills.

That said, the views are amazing, so that alone might be enough.
The meal with the stunning scenery was unforgettable.

Waipi'o Valley, horseback riding is the best! ワイピオ渓谷、乗馬最高!

Reviewed by: Mayu

Last year, I participated in a horseback riding tour that went up Waipi'o Valley, so this year I joined a tour that explored the valley below, and the lower course was definitely more fun!
In particular, crossing a river that was about waist-deep on the horse, with my feet lifted up in the stirrups, was truly thrilling and enjoyable.
I have a British-style riding license, but I found Western riding to be very enjoyable as well.
The staff brought a lot of organic fruits like avocados and starfruit to share with us.
The horses were well-trained, so I felt safe while riding.
They were all very well-behaved horses.
I highly recommend it!!

ブリティッシュスタイルのライセンスを持っている私ですが、ウエスタン乗りも非常に楽しかったです。

Guided Waipio Valley Horseback Riding & Waterfall Tour [Closed]

What waterfall?

Reviewed by: Peggy

My daughter and I really enjoyed horseback riding through Waipio Valley. Just be warned that if it is the dry sesson, you won't see any waterfalls. We did see lots of water though in addition to taro fields, wild horses and plenty of beautiful scenery. Our guides, Dava and Robert were entertaining, yet professional. I highly recommend this tour, as many people try to hike down into the valley and don't get far. Then they have to walk back up that very steep road! One warning. Do wear long pants or some sort of insect repellant. We were told there were no mosquitos but my daughter and I both returned with lots of bites.

We participated in a 1.5-hour course with a group of five, including two of us and three American family members. We leisurely progressed in a single line through a very spacious and pleasant ranch. Perhaps because there were children, we mostly walked at a slow pace. They also gave us time to stop and take photos along the way. The riding time was exactly one and a half hours. It was fun, but I thought that a 2.5-hour ride might get boring.

私達2名、アメリカ人の親子グループ3名の計5名で、1.5時間コースに参加しました。とても広々として気持ちの良い牧場を、概ね1列になってのんびり進みます。お子さんもいたからかほとんど並足でした。途中立ち止まって写真を撮る時間も取ってくれます。乗っている時間はちょうど1時間半でした。楽しいですが、2.5時間だと飽きるかもしれないと思いました。

マウナケア山頂 サンセット&星空観測ツアー <午後/天体望遠鏡/夕食付/英語ガイド> by ハワイフォレスト&トレイル

Breathtaking views and valuable experiences 絶景と貴重な体験

Reviewed by: AKIKO

Since all the Japanese tours were fully booked, I was unsure of what to do, but since it was the purpose of my trip, I thought I would manage even though I didn't understand English, and I decided to participate alone. It's necessary to do some research in advance since you have to take a taxi to the meeting point. When I arrived, there were mostly Western couples of various ages. There were a few Japanese people as well, which made me feel a bit more at ease. We traveled by bus to the summit of Mauna Kea, but it gets quite cold along the way, so it's best to dress warmly. We had lunch at a spot where we set up a tent. After that, we continued on a bumpy road, and I was worried about not being able to see the stars due to the fog, but when we reached the top, it cleared up, and we could see the sunset. It was a sensation unlike anything I had experienced before. The oxygen was thin, so it would have been good to bring some candy. After the sun went down, we went to see the stars. The stars were huge and incredibly beautiful. Since it was an English tour, I couldn't understand the explanations at all, but please enjoy the scenery. It was too cold, so I returned to the bus (laughs). I was happy that the driver, Maka, was very kind and attentive. We returned around 11 PM, and it was helpful that they dropped me off at my hotel. It was a valuable experience, and I really enjoyed it.

日本語ツアーがどれも満員だった為、どうしようと思いましたが、今回の旅の目的だったので英語がわからなったかですが、何とかなるかなと1人でしたが思いきって参加しました。集合場所までタクシーでいかないといけないのであらかじめ下調べは必要です。着いてからは殆ど欧米のカップル(年齢はバラバラ)でした。日本人も何組かいたので少し安心しました。全てバスでマウナケアの山頂までいくのですが、途中かなり寒くなるので防寒対策は上下しっかりしていった方がいいです。途中テントを張ったとこでゴハンを食べます。その後は、ガタガタした道を進んでいくのですが霧で前が見えなく、星が見えるのか心配してましたが、頂上にいくと一気に晴れ夕焼けが見えます。今までに見た事のない感覚でした。酸素も薄くなるので飴など持っていった方がよかったです。日が沈んでから星を見に行きます。星が大きくすごくきれいでした。英語ツアーなので説明は全くわからなかったですが景色を堪能して下さい。寒すぎてバスに戻りましたが(笑)ドライバーのmakaさんがとても優しく気にかけてくれたので嬉しかったです。帰りは23時くらいですがホテルまてま送ってくれたので助かりました。貴重な体験ができすごくよかったです。

ハワイ島 乗馬ツアー コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬! <午前・午後/英語ガイド>by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

Horseback riding in Kohala. コハラで乗馬

Reviewed by: さとし

I enjoyed horseback riding at a ranch that is almost the same size as Nerima Ward while taking in the wonderful scenery. I signed up for a 2.5-hour course, but it ended up being about 2 hours, which was disappointing. Since the tour specifies the riding time, I hoped they would make better use of the time.

素晴らしい景色を見ながら、練馬区とほぼ同じ広さの牧場で乗馬を楽しみました。
2.5時間のコースを申し込みましたが、2時間程度で終わってしまい、残念でした。乗馬の時間も明記してあるツアーなので、シッカリと時間を使って欲しいと思いました。
