If you're going to the Big Island, I definitely recommend visiting Mauna Kea. While Kilauea and the lava are impressive, the experience of watching the sunset and stargazing from the summit of Mauna Kea is truly moving. Seeing the sunset sink into the sea of clouds gives you chills. You can even see the shadow of the Earth. During stargazing, you can see an incredible number of stars like never before. They explain about artificial satellites, shooting stars, and your own constellations. If possible, it's good to check the moon phase before you go. It seems that a full moon can reduce visibility. You can find out the moon phase here: http://www.ne.jp/asahi/qpon/b/java103.htm. The bento from Masashi Nature School is just as good as other companies' bento, and they even include miso soup. Also, they are the only ones that provide warm clothing all the way down to pants. Other people looked cold. I definitely want to participate again next time.
ハワイ島に行かれる方、必ずマウナケアまで行かれたほうがいいと思いますよ。キラウエアや溶岩もすごいですが、感動といったらマウナケア山頂 サンセット&星空観測です。あの雲海に沈む夕日を見ると感動で震えが出てきます。地球の影も見えました。星空観測も今まで見たこともないような数の星を見ることができます。人工衛星や流れ星、自分の星座といろいろ説明してくれます。できれば月齢を調べていくといいですよ。満月だと半減するそうです。月齢は(半角で打ってください) http://www.ne.jp/asahi/qpon/b/java103.htm でわかります。マサシネイチャースクールのお弁当はほかの会社のお弁当と比べてもみそ汁もありまけてません。また防寒着もズボンまであるのはここだけでした。ほかのところの人たちは寒そうでした。また、次回も参加したいと思います。

I flew from Honolulu to Hilo early for trip which was scheduled for 8:30 AM. We were delayed starting by about one hour for other guests who took a later flight. My main reason for this tour was to see the volcano. Because of air quality, the observation area was closed. Because of cloud cover, we could not see the top of the volcano. We were able to visit the National Park Visitors Center which was worthwhile.
The tour guide was just fair. We visited several commercial sites.
He tried to make up for the closing of the observation area by stopping at other volcanoes in the park & a lava tube.

I just returned from the Big Island of Hawaii.
This time of year coincides with the arrival of humpback whales, so whether you join other ocean tours or a circumnavigation of the island, you can see the whales jumping.
However, this cruise features the whales, allowing you to see them jumping up close and watch several of them playing!
I found myself so captivated by the whales that I could only take distant photos, but my friend who was with me captured some great videos!
Since everyone on the cruise shares the goal of seeing the whales, conversations flow freely regardless of nationality.
As with any tour, I always believe that not being afraid to make mistakes and approaching others with a smile is the key to enjoying your travels.
Water, juice, snacks, and fruit are complimentary. Cocktails and alcoholic drinks can be enjoyed at the onboard bar.
ハワイ島から帰国したばかりです。
この時期はザトウクジラが来る時期にちょうどあたっていた
ということで、他の海のツアーに参加しても
島一周に参加してもクジラのジャンプは観る事ができます。
でも、このクルーズはクジラにフィーチャーしていくので
間近でクジラのジャンプ、数頭が遊んでいるところを
みることができますよ!
私はついクジラに見とれていて、写真は遠くに
ちょっと写っているようなものしかとれませんでしたが
一緒にいた友人は、ムービーでしっかりとってました!
参加者の目的はクジラをみることで一緒なので
クルーズ中は国籍関係なく話が盛り上がります。
どんなツアーでもそうですが、間違える事をおそれないで
自分から話しかけたり、笑顔でいることが
旅行を楽しくする秘訣だといつも思います。
水とジュース、おつまみやフルーツはフリー。
カクテルやアルコールドリンクは船内のバーで
楽しむことができます。

The Body Glove boat is a very nice vessel, and I felt really excited the moment I saw it at the Kailua Pier. Once on board, we set off right away. The boat had a buffet with cupcakes, croissants, fruits, and soft drinks. The first floor had sofa seating, while the second floor was a deck, and we chose to sit on the first floor.
About five minutes after departure, the boat stopped. An announcement was made that we would be searching for whales. After about 20 minutes of anchoring, we spotted a whale spouting in the distance, and the boat hurried towards it. However, because the boat was large, we couldn't get too close, and by the time we arrived, the whale had already submerged.
It was a bit frustrating. Once a whale surfaces, it reportedly reappears after about 20 minutes, so we kept waiting, chasing, waiting again, and chasing again. While this might be good for families or beginners, we (in our 20s) found it to be a bit lacking in excitement.
ボディグローブ号はとても素敵な船で、カイルア桟橋で船を見た瞬間はとてもワクワクしました。
乗船すると、すぐに出発。船にはカップケーキやクロワッサン、フルーツやソフトドリンクなどがバイキング形式で置いてありました。1階はソファー席、2階はデッキになっており、私達は1階に座りました。
出発して5分ほどたつとすぐに船がストップ。ここで、鯨を探します。とのアナウンスが入りました。20分ほど停泊すると遠くで鯨の潮吹きする姿を発見、急いでそちらへと船が進みます。
ですが、船が大きいため近くまでは寄れず、向かっている途中に鯨は潜ってしまい近づいた頃には見られませんでした。
少しもどかしい感じでした。鯨は1度海上に姿を現すと次は20分後とのことで、20分ほど待って、追いかける、また待って、追いかける。その繰り返しでした。
ファミリーや初心者の方には良いのかもしれませんが、私達(20代)には物足りないと感じるアクティビティでした。

We participated as a family. The Body Glove boat was very clean, and the seats were spacious, which was great. We departed from Kailua Pier and after about 10 minutes, we stopped to look for whales. When we spotted a spout, we moved closer. This repeated for about two hours. It was nice to enjoy at a leisurely pace since we had children with us.
On the boat, there was an all-you-can-eat selection of pastries, cupcakes, and fruits, along with various drinks (soft drinks only). Alcoholic beverages started at $4. While searching for whales, we enjoyed eating and drinking on the sofa, and when a whale was spotted, there would be an announcement to go see it.
However, because the boat was large, even when we found a whale, we couldn't get too close, which was a bit disappointing. Along the way, we also encountered a pod of dolphins. The dolphins were friendly and came close, which was moving. I think it's a great experience for families with small children or older adults.
ファミリーで参加しました。
ボディグローブ号はとても綺麗で、座席もゆったりとしていて非常に良かったです。
カイルア桟橋を出発し、10分くらいしたところで停泊し、クジラを探します。潮吹きしている場所を発見すると、そこへ移動。
2時間程度その繰り返しでした。子供がいたので、ゆったりと楽しめて良かったです。
船の中では、ペストリーやカップケーキ、フルーツが食べ放題で、飲み物も色々ありました。(ソフトドリンクのみ)アルコール類は$4からでした。クジラを探している間は、ソファーでそれらを飲み食いして楽しみ、クジラが発見されたら館内放送が入るので、見に行く。といった感じです。
ただ、船が大きいためクジラを発見しても、あまり近くまでは寄れず、少し遠目で見る感じで残念でした。
途中イルカの群れにも会いました。イルカは人なつっこく、近くまで寄ってきてくれて、感動しました。
小さいお子さんのいるファミリーもしくは、年配の方には良いと思います。

Since we didn't have a rental car, we participated in this tour with transportation included. It took about 45 minutes to get from our hotel to the meeting point, and we were dropped off just before the port, so we needed to walk to the Body Glove boat. The crew was at the reception, and you can check in by saying your name. As mentioned in other posts, the crew does not understand Japanese at all. I also speak very little English, but they provide a Japanese sheet with important information and emergency signals, so it's okay if you don't understand the English explanations. Since I have poor eyesight, they lent me prescription snorkeling goggles. I didn't understand everything in English, but since I participated in January, it was whale watching season, not dolphin watching. It was a great deal because you could snorkel and see whales. Although the sea was calm, it was still open ocean, so those prone to seasickness should take precautions. They do provide emergency assistance, but I think you need to be capable of managing your own snorkeling. Regarding transportation, the pickup was over an hour after the cruise ended, so I think it's fine to explore the nearby shops. I believe this is an activity that offers a unique experience that can only be enjoyed on the Big Island.
当方レンタカーがなかった為送迎つきのこちらに参加いたしました。
滞在ホテルより集合場所までは45分くらい、港の手前で下ろされるため、ボディーグローブ号まで歩いていく必要はあります。クルーが受付をしているので名前を言えばチェックインできます。投稿にあるとおりクルーに日本語はまったく通じません。当方も英語はほとんどしゃべれませんが、注意事項、危険時の合図などは日本語のシートを出してくれるので英語の説明がわからなくても大丈夫です。目が悪いのでめがねをかけていたら度つきの水中グラスも貸してくれました。また英語のためわからなかったのですが当方の参加した一月は鯨が来るシーズンのためイルカではなくホエールウオッチングでした。シュノーケリングもでき鯨も見れることでお得ではありました。穏やかとはいえ外洋なので波はあるので船酔いするかたは対策が必要です。また緊急時の対応はしてくれますが自己管理でシュノーケリングできる能力は必要とみます。送迎のほうですが迎えはクルージング終了後一時間以上もあったので周辺のお店を散策してもいいと思います。ビッグアイランドでしか味わえない体験ができるアクテビティだと思います。

On the Body Glove, for a while after departure, we watched people having breakfast with soft drinks and light snacks while we were already full and just had some water... When the engine stopped, we focused our eyes and there they were! We were able to see spouts and breaching clearly. We moved several times and were able to see them one after another; it really felt like there were so many whales coming to Hawaii. We had a wonderful half-day.

The whale watching season has just begun, and I was worried about whether I would be able to see any whales, but I was able to see about three spouting and their tails perfectly.
Along the way, a pod of dolphins passed by, and dolphins welcomed us at the port, which was also adorable.
The captain and the staff provided a lot of explanations, but since my English skills are lacking, I couldn't catch everything. If there are more people, it seems that a Japanese guide will accompany us, but with fewer people, we can freely use the deck of the boat, which is also appealing.
The view of the town of Kona, the airport, and the mountains from the sea was beautiful. If it's high season, I wonder if I could see more whales up close. Next time, I want to improve my English skills and participate again.

The staff provided a detailed explanation of the history of Hawaii Island in English, which was a great opportunity for my wife, who is currently learning English, to hear native speech. However, I was disappointed that I could hardly understand it. The Hawaiian cocktail "Mai Tai" served on board was fruity and had a pleasant taste.
I was very satisfied to be able to listen to live performances by musicians after purchasing a ukulele, as I had become fascinated with it. The pleasant breeze matched perfectly with the Hawaiian atmosphere.
The dinner included many local Hawaiian dishes and was delicious, but I felt that the variety was limited for the price. As the sun sets, the temperature drops significantly, so I recommend bringing a long-sleeved shirt.

私は、ウクレレに夢中でハワイのウクレレを購入してからツアーに参加しましたが、ミュージシャンの生の演奏を聴くことができて、とても満足でした。心地よい風にハワイアンがぴったりあっていました。

I boarded the ship on the morning of New Year's Day in 2010. I tried not to get my hopes up too much, knowing that it wasn't guaranteed to see them, so I was really happy when I did. We moved the ship to several spots, turned off the engine, and waited for the whales to appear, and I was able to see them multiple times. The tense, expectant atmosphere while waiting for the whales, the surprise and excitement when they finally appeared—it was thrilling. It seems that this year, the whales showed up earlier than usual, so I was very lucky.

This was the only optional tour I booked during my first trip to the Big Island of Hawaii. Our guide, Shinya, really energized everyone on the bus, making it enjoyable and keeping us engaged. I was a bit worried about altitude sickness, but I managed to get through it without feeling too unwell.
The weather was surprisingly good for this time of year, and the temperature wasn't too low, allowing for great observations.
Recommendations:
- Dress warmly. They do provide outerwear, but it can still get cold after a long time, so it's best to go fully prepared, including a hat.
- Don't forget to bring water and some sweet snacks like chocolate. While water is provided, I think it's a good idea to bring your own as well.
I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

この時期にしては!?天気も良くて気温もそれ程低くなくいい状態での観測ができました。
おススメ
?暖かい格好をしていく事
※上下防寒具は貸していただけますが、やっぱり長時間は寒いですので帽子も含めて完全防備で行ったほうがいいです。
?水分とチョコレートなどの甘いものの持参を忘れずに。
※水はついていますが、持参していくといいと思います。

This was my first visit to the Big Island for our honeymoon. My husband, who usually doesn't have many requests for trips, had one wish: he wanted to visit the mountain with the observatory if we were going to Hawaii! To fulfill that wish, I booked the Mauna Kea summit tour with Masashi.
As a result, my husband was extremely satisfied! Although he usually doesn't talk much, on the way back, he was sitting next to the guide and chatting away, which made me happy to see how much he enjoyed it. I believe this was all thanks to the guide, who took great care of the participants' health and provided warm clothing. Thank you very much!!!
The sunset at the summit and the stargazing a little further down were perfect for honeymooners, creating a wonderful atmosphere.
I had done my homework by reading experience reports (I wore Heattech and brought a fleece and scarf), so we were able to fully enjoy both activities. If you want to make the most of this tour, it's best to dress appropriately.
Dinner was around 4:30 PM, and we returned to the hotel around 9:30 to 10 PM, so I recommend preparing a light snack the day before.
Stargazing can vary depending on the season, time, and moon phase, so this is a tour I would love to visit again multiple times. Thank you!
ハネムーンで初めてのハワイ島訪問でした。
旅行に関してあまりリクエストのない夫でしたが、ハワイ島に行くなら天文台のある山に行きたい!という唯一の願いを叶えるため、マサシのマウナケア山頂ツアーに申し込みました。

山頂での夕日、そして少し下へ降りての星空観測はムード満点でハネムーナーにもぴったりでした♪
体験談を読んだりして事前準備(ヒートテックを着込み、フリースとマフラーを持って行きました)をしっかりしていたので、どちらもたっぷり時間をかけて楽しめました。このツアーを堪能したい方は、万全の恰好で行ったほうがいいですよ。
晩ご飯のお弁当が4時半ごろ、ホテルに帰るのが9時半から10時ごろとなるので、ちょっとした夜食を前日に用意しておくこともお勧めします。

I participated in the tour on December 20th. That morning, an incredible thunderstorm suddenly appeared on the Big Island, bringing hail and knocking down trees, making it a very rare weather day.
Unfortunately, due to the storm, we experienced a phenomenon where 30 cm of snow fell in just 30 minutes, which led to road closures, preventing us from reaching the summit. However, thanks to our guide Shinya's entertaining Yoshimoto-style talk, we were able to enjoy the tour in the vehicle without a moment of silence and had a great time!
Of course, we also made sure to observe the starry sky from a high point on the mountain, where Shinya provided fascinating explanations of the countless stars.
Since we couldn't see a moonbow this time, I hope to challenge myself to spot one during my next visit to the Big Island, aiming for a full moon.
Shinya, please continue to provide fun tours with your Yoshimoto-style talks. I look forward to seeing beautiful photos as well!
12月20日のツアーに参加させていただきました。当日午前中は凄まじいサンダーストームが突如ハワイ島に出現し、ヒョウが降ったり、木がなぎ倒されたりで、大変珍しい気象の日でありました。
残念ながらそのストームにより30分で30cmもの雪が降る、という現象が発生し、ロードクローズとなってしまったため山頂まで行くことはできませんでしたが、ガイドのしんやさんの吉本トークでツアー車中に笑いが途切れることはなく大変楽しく過ごさせていただくことができました!
もちろん、目的の星空観測もできるだけ山の高い位置で、としっかり配慮していただいて満天の星を面白く解説していただけました。
今回はムーンボーは見ることができませんでしたから、次回ハワイ島を訪れる機会があったら満月の狙ってムーンボー確認に挑戦したいと思っています。

I was honestly worried about whether I would be able to see them in the wild, but I was able to see them up close, even more than I imagined, and it was incredibly moving.
I don't think I could ever see wild whales that close in my everyday life.
It was a very precious experience.
Although we were supposed to see whales, I was lucky to also spot dolphins.
The food on the boat was only mentioned as snacks and drinks in advance, but there were quite stylish light meals and drinks, and I was satisfied with the service.
It might be a good idea to check the meeting point and hotel location in advance. Depending on the situation, a shuttle service might be cheaper. We were far from the hotel and took a taxi, which ended up costing quite a bit...
That's the only regret I have.
However, I think the experience was so amazing that it overshadowed that, so I have no regrets.
I would definitely like to participate again when I go to Hawaii.
野生なので見れるかどうか、正直不安でしたが、想像以上に間近で見ることが出来て、凄く感動しました。
普段、見ることは全くない、野生のクジラをあんな間近で
見ることは出来ないと思います。
非常に貴重な体験でした。
クジラと言いつつ、ちゃっかり、イルカも見れてラッキーでした。
船内の食事も、スナックとドリンクとしか事前に書いて無かったのですが、結構お洒落な感じの軽食とドリンクがあって
サービス面でも満足しました。
集合場所とホテルの場所は事前にチェックしておいた方が良いかもです。場合によっては、送迎ありのほうが安くなる場合もあります。
自分らは、ホテルから遠く、タクシーで行ったのですが、相当な料金が掛かってしまいました。。。
それだけが悔やまれます。
が、そんな事も吹き飛ぶくらいの体験が出来たと思いますので後悔はないです。
また、ハワイに行った時には、ぜひ参加したいですね。

The show was wonderful, and I was truly moved. I regret not having seen it before... I definitely want to see it again next time.
I believe that enjoying delicious Hawaiian cuisine along with traditional songs and dances at a luau show is an essential activity when traveling to Hawaii.
ガイドブックにもルアウショーがよく取り上げられているので、以前から気になっていたのですが、今回3度目のハワイ旅行で初めてアウショーを鑑賞しました。ショーは素晴らしく、本当に感動しました。今まで見なかったことが悔やまれるくらい・・・次回もまた見たいです。
美味しいハワイアン料理に、伝統的な歌やダンスが楽しめるルアウショーは、ハワイ旅行ではずせないアクティビティだと思います。

When it comes to Hawaii, the luau show is a must-see. I've seen a few luaus before, and this time the performers showcased incredible dances. The hula dances ranged from slow movements to powerful performances, all of which were fantastic. Of course, the highlight, the fire dance, was also amazing! If you haven't seen a luau show yet, I highly recommend checking it out at least once.
ハワイと言えば、やはりルアウショーですよね。
何度かルアウを見た事があるのですが、今回のルアウショーも、出演者が見事なダンスを披露してくれました。
フラダンスは、ゆっくりした動きのものから迫力あるものまでどれも良かったです。もちろん見どころのファイヤーダンスも最高!
ルアウショーをまだ見た事ない人は、ぜひ一度は見てみてください。

We went to a luau show as a family. Before the show started, we enjoyed delicious food and a beautiful sunset, and when the show began, I was impressed by the stunning and powerful performances. I am learning hula in Japan, but the authentic hula was truly amazing. I thought to myself that I want to be able to dance as beautifully as that. It became the most memorable day of our trip to Hawaii.
家族でルアウショーを見てきました☆
ショーが始まるまでは、美味しい食事や美しいサンセットが楽しめ、ショーが始まると華麗で迫力あるパフォーマンスに感激でした。私は、日本でフラを習っているのですが、さすが本場のフラは素晴らしかったです。私もあんな素敵に踊れるようになりたいなと思いました。
今回のハワイ旅行で一番思い出に残る1日になりました。

I watched the luau show for the third time. I am always amazed by the wonderful performances, and I feel moved every time I see it.
The traditional Hawaiian food was delicious, and I had a satisfying meal. After my stomach was filled, the torches were lit, and the show started. I was captivated by the beauty of the hula and fire dance, and it was a show that I thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish. I want to see it again. It seems I never get tired of the luau show.
3度目のルアウショーを鑑賞。毎回素晴らしいパフォーマンスには驚かされ、いつ見ても感動します。
ハワイの伝統料理も美味しく、満足のいく食事ができました。お腹も満たされたところで、たいまつが点火されショーがスタート。フラやファイヤーダンスのすごさに魅了され、最初から最後までとっても楽しめるショーでした。
また見たいです。まだまだルアウショーは飽きないようです。

It was a wonderful show! I was captivated by the singing and dancing, and I also appreciated learning about Polynesian culture throughout the performance. It made me love Hawaii even more.
とても素晴らしいショーでした!
歌にダンスとどれも釘付けでしたが、このショーを通して、ポリネシアン文化についても知ることができたのが良かったです。ハワイがますます好きになるそんなショーでした。
