I was shivering from the cold until the manta ray appeared, but when it showed up and spun around in front of me multiple times, I was so excited that I forgot all about the cold! I'm really glad I participated. It was so cute, and I felt like I became friends with the manta ray!

I was impressed by the location at the summit of Mauna Kea, where various observatories from different countries are located! The winds were so strong that I felt like I might be blown away, but I was able to see a very beautiful sunset. When we changed locations for stargazing, as night fell, the stars began to appear one after another, and the guide's fluent explanations made everything very easy to understand. This was a tour I really wanted to experience, so I felt very lucky to hear that it had not been able to take place the day before.
マウナケア山頂では各国の天文台などがあるロケーションに感激‼
飛ばされそうなほどの強風でしたが、とても綺麗なサンセットを見ることが出来ました。
場所を変えての星空観測も日が暮れるにつれて、星が続々と見えるようになり、ガイドさんの流暢な説明でとても分かりやすかったです。
是非とも体験したかったツアーでしたので、前日までは決行できなかったと聞きとてもラッキーでした。

The starry sky at Mauna Kea is truly beautiful. It's more beautiful than the word "beautiful" can express, but since I can't think of any other words right now, I'll just say it's beautiful. For those who haven't seen it, it's hard to convey, but when you see this, you can't help but think, "Are there really this many stars in the world?"
What I found to be the best part of this tour is that you can take photos with the starry sky at Mauna Kea. Capturing the night sky with a camera is really difficult, but on this tour, the guide provided a camera specifically for the stars, allowing us to take pictures with the stunning starry sky.
It was a tour that will be remembered both in records and in memory. The Orion and Sirius constellations that I usually see now shine brighter than ever. Thank you very much.
マウナケアの星空は本当にきれいです。
きれいという言葉以上にきれいなのですが、きれいと言う言葉以外、今は見当たらないのできれいと言います。
見た人以外にはなかなか伝わらないのですが、これを見ると
「星って世の中にこんなにあるの?」
と言う気持ちになります。
さらにこのツアーで1番いいと思ったのは、マウナケアの星空と一緒に写真が撮れることです。
星空をカメラに収める事は本当に難しいのですがこのツアーではガイドさんが星空専用のカメラを用意してくれて満点の星空と一緒に写真を撮ることができます。
記録と記憶に残るツアーでした。
このツアーで普段見ていたオリオン座とシリウス座が今まで以上に輝いて見えるようになりました。
本当にありがとうございます。

Initially, there was no plan for a Japanese-speaking pilot, but I truly appreciate Mr. Mochizuki for taking charge. The weather was great, and the explanations were excellent, making it the best flight. It became a wonderful memory of the Big Island. If I have the opportunity next time, I would like to fly over the crater as well.

The sky was cloudy during the journey, so I was worried about the conditions at the summit, but by the time we arrived, it was clear and we could see the observatory clearly. The moment of sunset was also wonderful. On the way back, the sky was filled with stars, and the guide provided a detailed explanation of the night sky, which was moving. It was truly a unique experience that is hard to come by. Thank you very much.

First off The Two outstanding parts to this tour was Jeff; The Tour Guide and The Stars. Tour Guide Jeff, detailed intellect to the stars was fun and educational without being obnoxious. Felt very fortunate to have him as our guide. Even though the clouds didn’t corporate fully that evening the Sunset was astounding even at nine thousand foot elevation.
The Rudeness of One Local Park Ranger that evening was disappointing to witness by all in the group. He made a big deal to our Tour Guide to move the company van by honking his horn repeatedly when all he had to do was ask politely Not Nice. The other disappointment was The Gift Shop closing very early and while they were closing the gift shop personnel Didn’t allow access to the Restroom for the many guess that were present at the time. Gift shop took about 15 minutes to close up shop and during that time could’ve allowed access to Restrooms. Thank You Jeff !!! for saving our visit

First off, big thanks to Jeff for being an entertaining and super knowledgeable guide. Great customer service as well. They called us early on in the morning to let us know, to our dismay, that we wouldn’t be able to get up to the summit for our particular trip (due to many weather related circumstances that were out of their control). It was a huge bummer, but like I said, still 100% worth it to attend the abbreviated version of this excursion. I’m more of a street smarts kinda guy if you know what I mean, Jeff made everything so easy to understand and so interesting to everyone attending the trip. He was able to answer every single question we had. I swear the guys a living encyclopedia. Long story short there should be no hesitation on your part to take this once in a lifetime trip. Set aside the funds you need to experience this NO. MATTER. WHAT.

The primary purpose of this trip to Hawaii was to go to the summit of Mauna Kea and take sunset photos. However, despite the clear weather, the temperature was low, causing the roads to freeze. Ultimately, the road closure was not lifted, and we couldn't reach the summit. When I inquired, I learned that there had only been two occasions this February when people were able to go to the summit. The tour regulations state that access to the summit may be restricted due to weather conditions, but I felt that promoting sunset viewing at the summit when the chances of going there are less than 10% is, in a sense, misleading. I do not recommend the sunset viewing at the summit of Mauna Kea during winter.
今回のハワイ旅行の第一の目的はマウナケア山頂に行き夕陽撮影を行う事。ところが、天気が快晴にもかかわらず気温が低かったため道路が凍結。最終的に道路の通行止めが解除にならず、山頂には行けなかった。聞いてみると今年の2月は、2回ほど山頂に行っただけとの事。ツアー規約には、天候により山頂には行けない旨の記載があるが、山頂に行ける確率が10%にもないのに、山頂夕陽鑑賞を募集するのは、ある意味詐欺と感じた。冬季のマウナケア山頂夕陽鑑賞は、おすすめはしない。

I participated in this tour because it allows you to get close to whales on a small boat during whale watching. There were four Japanese participants, including my mother and me. The rest were all travelers from the mainland United States, including some small children. The captain's guidance and announcements were all in English, but he entertained us with his cheerful demeanor and acrobatic maneuvers.
The boat sped out to sea faster than I had imagined. Passengers clung to the ropes attached to the boat, and the small children were held by their mothers. The first sighting was a pod of dolphins. Their synchronized swimming was very soothing. Additionally, we were fortunate enough to encounter a group of manta rays, which seems to be rare. As for the whales, at first, we could only see them blowing water from a distance, but in the end, we saw one diving right next to the boat. It was thrilling to see it swim directly beneath us.
We had a juice and snack break on board, and on the way back, we encountered another pod of dolphins. The captain created round waves on the surface with his acrobatic steering, and the dolphins joyfully jumped in, which was incredibly cute! It was a thoroughly satisfying tour.
However, I forgot to take motion sickness medication and ended up feeling a bit groggy, so I definitely recommend taking it. Also, since the boat moves at quite a high speed, it might be a bit dangerous for those who are not confident in their ability to hold on or for elderly individuals. I highly recommend this tour for those who love thrill rides or want to see marine animals up close!
ホエールウォッチングの中でも小さな船でクジラに近付けるということで、こちらのツアーに参加しました。日本人参加者は私と母を含めて4人。ほかは全員アメリカ本土からの旅行者で、中には小さなお子さんも。船長のガイドやアナウンスはすべて英語ですが、ノリのよさとアクロバティックな操縦で楽しませてくれました。
船は想像していた以上のハイスピードで沖へ。乗客は船についているロープにしがみつき、小さなお子さんはお母さまが抱いていらっしゃいました。最初に現れたのはイルカの群れ。規則的にグループで泳ぐ姿にとても癒されました。また、これは珍しいようですがマンタの群れにも遭遇することができました。そして肝心のクジラですが、最初は遠くのほうで潮を吹いている姿しか見られなかったものの、最後には船のすぐそばで潜水。そのまま船の下を通っていく姿を間近でしっかりと見られて感動しました。
船上でのジュース&お菓子タイムを挟みつつ、帰り道にはまたもイルカの群れに遭遇。すると船長がアクロバティックな操縦で水面にまあるい波を起こし、そこにイルカたちが楽しそうに飛び込んできてとてもかわいかったです...!最後まで大満足のツアーでした。
ただ酔い止めを飲み忘れてしまいグロッキーになったので笑、必ず酔い止めは飲んだほうがいいです。また船はかなりのハイスピードで進むので、つかまる力に自信がない方やお年寄りには少し危ないかもしれません。絶叫マシンが好きな方や海の動物を近くで見たい方にはとってもおススメです!

This is my second time (the first time I applied directly).
It's difficult to get there on your own, but we go all the way down to Waipi'o Valley.
The horses are well-trained, and you can enjoy horseback riding with a simple lecture.
(They walk on their own without you having to do anything. Haha.)
Since they are living creatures, they stop along the way to eat grass as they please,
and they also take bathroom breaks while walking (which is another memory).
We even crossed a river. It was swollen from the rain a few hours earlier, but the horses moved forward without hesitation.
They also take commemorative photos for you.
Please enjoy the lush green trees, flowers, and horses of Waipi'o.

The captain loves the ocean, dolphins, and whales more than anything, and I realized that because of that love, there is so much he can understand and teach us. His love for the animals was overflowing, and that's why we were able to have such an amazing experience. He also assessed the spots from a professional perspective, making for a very satisfying time.

This time, we couldn't reach the summit or observe the starry sky due to bad weather. It's really disappointing since it's not an easily accessible place.

Since it's nature, we can't predict the weather until the reservation date. I climbed up to 2,800 meters, but it started to rain along the way. We take some time for altitude acclimatization, but due to the rain, we eat cold boxed lunches in the car. Beyond that point, the road was closed due to snow and ice. We changed our plans and headed to the west coast to watch the sunset. I was looking forward to seeing the sunset and stargazing from the summit, but... here too, the clouds obscured everything. I've seen the sunset every day for five days, so maybe it's okay.

Dolphins are wild creatures, so there's no guarantee that you'll see them, but this tour offers a high probability of encountering them. The reason for this is that the instructor drives the boat and selects snorkeling points based on the dolphins' behavior that day. They also provide detailed instructions to help you see the dolphins up close. When the dolphins appeared right in front of us, I was very excited. I believe this is the only tour where you can see wild dolphins up close with such a high probability. I had a really great time participating. Thank you!
イルカは野生の生き物なので必ず会えると言う保証はありませんがこのツアーは、ほとんどの確率で会えます。
それは何故かと言うと、インストラクターの方が船を運転してその日のイルカの調子でポイントを選んでシュノーケリングをするからです。

We participated as a family of four (all adults). Among the three staff members, the female staff member was fluent in Japanese, so we had no trouble understanding the explanations before snorkeling. The snorkeling lasted about 40 minutes. We were instructed to keep our bodies horizontal and look into the water, but it wasn't difficult to maintain that position since we had a foam-like stick to hold near our knees. The manta rays came close enough to touch. They are large and incredibly impressive! We were able to see at least five manta rays. The staff were very considerate, making our experience comfortable. Additionally, we received a tote bag with a manta ray design on our way back.
I was worried about seasickness, and while my wife experienced some mild symptoms, it wasn't serious, and it seemed that no other participants had issues with seasickness. However, I think it depends on the wave conditions of the day. Also, it might be wise to rent a wetsuit for an additional fee ($10 each).
家族4人で参加しました。(全員大人)
スタッフ3名のうち女性のスタッフの方は日本語が堪能なので、シュノーケリング前の説明等も問題なく理解できました。シュノーケリングは約40分間。
体を水平にして海中を覗き込むように言われましたが、発泡スチロールのような棒状のものを膝の辺りに当てるので体を水平に維持するのは疲れもせず難しくなかったです。
マンタは体に触れるくらいまで近くに来てくれます。
マンタは大きく凄い迫力です! 確認できただけでも5枚のマンタを見ることができました。
スタッフの皆さんもいろいろと気遣いしてくれて快適でした。
それと、帰りにマンタの絵が描かれたトートバッグをいただきました。
船酔いが心配でしたが、妻に少し船酔いの症状が出たものの大事には至らず、他の参加者にも船酔いした人はいなかったようです。ただ、船酔いに関してはその日の波の状況にもよると思います。
それと別料金(1着10㌦)になりますがウエットスーツは借りたほうが賢明ではないでしょうか。

My first helicopter experience was enjoyable. I requested a Japanese pilot, but when my reservation was confirmed, I was informed that it would be an English-speaking pilot, so I was glad I could participate with that understanding in advance. Although I'm not a native speaker, I was able to understand, and it turned out to be a very good experience! Unfortunately, the Kilauea volcano was calm, so it wasn't what I had hoped for, but I was able to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Big Island of Hawaii, and it was worth the price!

Jim Carey is an outstanding and knowledgeable guide who wove Hawaiian folklore, geology and local current events into an experience that we (ages 12 to 72) all enjoyed. We had a nice small group (just seven of us) which allowed Jim to go a little off script and pack a lot of experiences into our day. The transportation van was comfortable but be ready for a long drive because Jim really covers the Big Island. From the lava flows in Kona to Hilo to Kilauea, there was a lot of ground covered. The gourmet dinner of organic and locally grown steaks, fish and produce was exceptional. Don't even get me started on the dessert. We are still talking about it. The stargazing was a spectacular finish to the day.
Thank you Jim for an unforgettable experience.

It takes about 10 minutes by car from the town of Kailua-Kona to the office. There were no other Japanese tourists besides us; most of the participants were from the mainland United States. Instead of a cruise ship, we boarded a boat to head out to sea. Along the way, we encountered a pod of dolphins and saw many whales up close! We got soaked on the boat, but that was also a fun memory. Snacks and water were provided during the trip. I would love to participate again if I visit the Big Island during the season.

I was thrilled to see the whales jump multiple times. The boat rocked, but I was so focused on searching for the whales that I didn't feel seasick and enjoyed myself.
クジラのジャンプを何回も見ることができて感激しました。船は揺れましたが、クジラを探すことに夢中になっていたため船酔いもなく楽しめました。

It was moving! I felt like I made eye contact with a dolphin! I was able to swim right next to a pod of dolphins! I want to swim with Daisuke again! I will keep in touch with everyone I was with, and starting tomorrow, I will work hard dreaming of the day I can swim with the dolphins and all of you again! I hope Daisuke can swim with the blue whale too!
感動です!イルカと目が合った気がしました!イルカちゃん達の群れのすぐ横で一緒に泳げました!だいすけさんとまた泳ぎたい!ご一緒させて頂いた皆さんとも連絡取り合って、またいつかイルカとみなさんと泳げる日を夢見て明日から頑張ります!だいすけさんもシロナガスクジラと一緒に泳げますように

Great morning of Kayaking and saw plenty of fish, 2 reef sharks and an eel. Recommend Morning your before all the boats come in. Jay was great guide.

The most moving experience among my past tour experiences.
1. Visiting the observation deck with the Subaru telescope at the summit of Mauna Kea.
2. Experiencing the freezing cold of minus 10 degrees Celsius at an altitude of 4000 meters in Hawaii.
3. Being moved by the sunset at the highest point over the Pacific Ocean.
4. Being overwhelmed by the starry sky at an altitude of 3000 meters.
I was truly impressed by Shin's talk and constellation explanations as a tour professional. Thank you very much.
過去のツアー体験の中で一番の感動体験。
①マウナケア山頂のスバル望遠鏡が設置された展望台を訪れた事・
②標高4000mの氷点下10度の寒さをハワイで体験できた事。
③太平洋上での最高地点でのサンセットに感動。
④標高3000m地点での満天の星空に圧倒された。
ツアー案内のShinさんのトークと星座説明は、さすがツアープロ
としての姿に感銘を受けました。本当にありがとうございました。

Thank you for joining us.
The experience after sunset significantly decreases. Please bring warm clothing next time and come to meet the mantas again! Mahalo
ご参加ありがとうございます。
サンセット後のツアーは体感がかなり下がってまいります。
次回は防寒具をお持ちになって、またマンタたちに会いに来てください!
