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

Best trip.

Reviewed by: Gcw

One of the best trips we have been on. JEFF was excellent both in the way he described the Island, his humour and knowledge.
Overall this created a memory that will last a life time.
We should also say that this trip would never have existed without pele. It made us realise how much we owe to nature and how much we take it for granted.

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧　水～土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能＜フライト100分／英語パイロット／ワイコロアヘリポート＞

There were wonderful things too. 素晴らしいこともあったよ

Reviewed by: sho

One thing that was a bit disappointing was that I couldn't see any lava. Even though I was looking down into the crater, it was just a big hole because it had calmed down. I thought I would be able to see the lava entering the sea, but it seems that either there was never a plan for that, or it was no longer possible due to the calm.

The optional trip down to the base of the waterfall was amazing. I can't really gauge the true scale, but it felt like being at the bottom of Kegon Falls, looking up from below. There was no one else around, so it felt like a private waterfall. There's only enough space for one helicopter to land, and I don't think you can get there by car. I highly recommend this optional tour.

The helicopter guide and pilot was a Japanese person. It seems that the group I happened to be with had booked through the guide's website, which is why a Japanese guide was assigned. Requesting a Japanese guide might not be very effective.

Lastly, it was my first time on a helicopter, and if you're prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication. The vibrations from the helicopter can make you feel queasy. The flight itself wasn't scary, and even though it was my first time, I didn't feel particularly moved by it (laughs).

少しガッカリしたことは溶岩が見れなかったこと。火口を上から見てるのに、沈静化したためにただの大きな穴でした。溶岩が海に入っていくところが見れるのかと思っていたら、もともとそんな予定がなかったのか、沈静化したことでなくなったなのか、見れませんでした。
オプショナルの滝の麓に降りるやつは凄かったです。本当の規模はわかりませんが、華厳の滝の滝つぼ付近に降りたってしたから上を見るような感じです。私たち以外誰もいませんのでプライベート滝？です。ヘリコプター1台が降り立つスペースしかないし、車では来れないと思います。このオプショナルはオススメです。
ヘリコプターのガイド兼操縦士さんは日本人の方でした。どうやらたまたま一緒に乗り合わせたグループの方がガイドさんのホームページから予約されたため、日本人の方がガイドに着いたようです。日本語ガイドの希望を出しても、あまり意味が無いかもです。
最後に、ヘリコプターに初めて乗りましたが、酔いやすい人は酔い止め飲んだ方がいいかもです。ヘリコプターの振動が酔いそうになります。飛行自体は怖くもなく、初めて乗ったのですが、あまり感動はなかったです(笑)

Chasing dolphins while snorkeling is hard work! バンドウイルカ追っかけシュノーケリングハードワーク！

Reviewed by: もっとさん

I participated in dolphin snorkeling for the first time on the Big Island of Hawaii. I thought it would be a diving boat, but it turned out to be a Zodiac. The captain and the navigator were humorous and taught us a lot. It seemed that other boats were also searching for dolphins, but most of them couldn't find any, and the main Spinner Dolphins were elusive. However, we did spot the endangered Hawaiian monk seal along the way! After that, we zoomed around in the Zodiac, holding on tight, and discovered a pod of bottlenose dolphins! Unlike the Spinner Dolphins, they don't approach humans, so when we got close, they would dive away. Thanks to the captain's determination, we were able to see about six of them up close, which was fantastic!!!

However, preparing and challenging myself multiple times was tough for a guy over 50.

初めてハワイ島でイルカシュノーケリングへ参加しました。
ダイビングの時に載る船かな～と思っていたらゾディアックということでした。とにかく船長にナビゲーターの方がユーモラスで色々と教えてくれました。今回は他の船もイルカを探していたようですがほとんどの船がイルカに会えずメインのSpinner Dolphinは見つからず、途中絶滅危惧種のハワイアンモンクシールを発見！その後もゾディアックでガンガン飛ばして落ちないようにつかまっているうちにバンドウイルカの親子の群れを発見！でも、Spinner Dolphinと違って人間に寄ってこないため近づくと潜ってしまいます。そこを船長の根性で無事6頭ほど間近で見ることができてよかった！！！

でも、何度も準備してチャレンジは50過ぎの親父にはきつかった～～。

ワイピオ渓谷 　乗馬ツアー　＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ワイピオ・オン・ホースバック

They safely guided us while crossing the river with increased water levels on horseback. 水量の増した川を馬に乗って横切るときも安全にガイドしていただきました

Reviewed by: hrf

I previously participated in the same tour and enjoyed it, so I joined again with a friend. After the rain, the water level in the river at Waipi'o Valley had increased, and I was a bit worried when crossing the river on horseback, but the guide carefully checked for safe spots and led us cautiously, allowing us to enjoy the experience without any anxiety. It was a pity that the restroom at the meeting point was a portable toilet and not very clean. Other than that, I was very satisfied.

以前、同ツアーに参加してよかったので、再度、友人と参加しました。雨が降ったあとで、ワイピオ渓谷下の川の水量が増えていて、馬に乗って川を横切るとき少し心配でしたが、ちゃんと安全な場所を調べて慎重にガイドしていただき、不安なく、楽しめました。集合場所のトイレが移動簡易トイレであまりきれいでなかったのは残念でした。それ以外は大満足です。

The weather was great, and I was lucky to meet a lot of dolphins! Since the waves were strong, I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're worried about seasickness. I took some and was totally fine. It seems that the timing of encounters depends on luck, so it’s best to schedule with some extra time.

天候、イルカさんの気分に恵まれ、たくさんのイルカさんに会えました！波が強かったので、船酔いや波酔いが心配な場合は酔い止めを飲むことをお勧めします。自分は酔い止めを飲んで全然大丈夫でした。遭遇のタイミングは運によるらしいので、時間に余裕を持ってスケジューリングしといたほうが良さそうと思います。

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

Waipi'o Valley is a very beautiful place! ワイピオ渓谷はとても美しい場所！

Reviewed by: Lily

Waipi'o Valley was a wonderful place with a gentle atmosphere. You can easily reach the viewpoint by car, but the road down to the valley is off-limits for rental cars and is a narrow, bumpy, steep path that is best avoided if you're not experienced. It's advisable to know in advance where to pull over to avoid oncoming vehicles. Very few people walk down, and since there are no markers once you descend, I think it's better to go on a tour rather than trying to navigate on foot.

Initially, the staff will take you by car to the horse stable in the valley. There were 8 participants in the horseback riding tour, accompanied by 2 staff members. The instructions on how to ride were simple, mixed with broken Japanese, but the horses were all very smart and guided us along (laughs). Unlike in Japan, where someone typically leads the horse, each person is given a horse and can ride right away, even if it's their first time. It's so much fun!

When I considered booking beforehand, the Japanese tour was a full day, so I opted for this half-day option instead. Since it's a first experience, it requires quite a bit of stamina, so I think half a day is sufficient.

ワイピオ渓谷は、穏やかな気が流れる素晴らしい場所でした。
上から眺める展望台には車ですぐ行けますが、そこから渓谷に下る道路はレンタカーでは通行禁止ですし、無理に行こうとするのは止めた方が良いガタガタの急勾配の狭い道です。対向の車を避けるのも、あらかじめ避ける場所を把握していた方が良い、慣れた人が行く道です。
歩いて下る人もとても少ないです。下りてからも道しるべなどはないので、ぐるっと巡るとなると、馬ではなく歩くのだとしてもツアーで行った方が良いと思います。

はじめに、スタッフが渓谷の馬小屋まで車で連れて行ってくれます。乗馬ツアーには、8人が参加して2人のスタッフが付きました。
馬の乗り方は、カタコトの日本語混じりの簡単な説明だけでしたが、とにかく、お馬さんたちがみんな賢くて、連れて行ってくれます(笑)
日本にありがちな、手綱を誰かが引いて連れて行ってくれる訳ではなく、初めてだろうが1人１頭与えられ、いきなり乗せてもらえます。
とっても楽しいです！

予約前に検討した際、日本語のツアーだとまる1日だったので、午前中だけのこちらにしました。初体験だとかなり体力が必要ですので、半日で十分だと思います。

The Japanese female guide was very cheerful and pleasant. I felt reassured because I wanted someone who could speak Japanese to guide us, and her bright demeanor helped ease my tension.

I was a bit anxious about entering the sea at night, but the guide explained everything properly and went in first, which allowed me to follow and jump in as well. Once I jumped in, there was nothing to be afraid of, and I was able to grab onto a float right away.

In the end, five manta rays came to us, which was breathtaking. I don't think there are many opportunities to get so close to wild creatures.

It was an amazing experience. I believe this is one activity I would recommend to everyone.

I really enjoyed this tour, and I think this is my fourth time participating. This time, the tour was especially amazing! There were about eight manta rays? There were so many that it was hard to keep track. In the past, there were times when they didn't show up at all, so since it's in the wild, there's no guarantee you'll see them, but I definitely think it's worth participating. Also, this boat is large, which makes it comfortable and gives a sense of security.

Previously, we borrowed wetsuits at the check-in office, but now the handover has changed to the boat boarding area. Additionally, the tour used to have only one departure per day, but now there are two, an early and a late option. We participated in the early departure.

Our guide, Gordon, made sure the shuttle ride was comfortable and enjoyable. the stargazing and sunset views were amazing! It is well recommended to take this tour.

Lasagna was a bit salty for asian taste in my opinion. Browny, cookies and drinks were nice. Jumpers and gloves were provided but it was still cold, so it would be better if you brought more warm clothings.

One thing, i came on this tour with my wife (newly weds) but the seats were limited, so we had to sit separately :( it would be nice if there were seating plans or notice beforehand.

I participated in the Segway Kailua Kona Sunset Tour (120 minutes) with a Japanese guide along with my parents.

Before riding on public roads, we practiced how to ride multiple times in the office with great care.

Even for someone like me who is not very athletic, our Japanese guide, Masako, patiently taught me until I felt comfortable riding without any hesitation. During the ride, she provided detailed instructions on what to watch out for, such as obstacles, bumps, and manholes. My retired parents were also very happy to participate, as there were explanations of the sights in Japanese, which made them feel at ease. The sunset tour included beautiful night views along the coast, a botanical garden, and riding on an old runway, making it a unique experience that you can't find in Japan. I highly recommend it.

Mauna Kea Summit Sunrise & Stargazing Tour

First time close to the doors to haven:)

Reviewed by: Darko

I recommend this Sunrise tours especially to people who never conquers mountain peak higher then 3000 m.
Of course, I recommend it to everyone else, but for those who are for the first time on a higher elevation this is simply the must.

The flow of emotions I felt when I reached the peak was so overwhelming that I couldn't stop the tears.
It's almost impossible to express the feeling of inner fulfillment when you stand on the top of a high mountain watching the sunrise!

The Veltra crew did outstanding planning by set of small stops so our body can adapt to over 4000 m attitude.
First we stopped at 2000 to adapt to coldness of night and change in altitude. (They distributed parkas to all of us at that time)
Then we stopped at around 3000 m for unforgettable stargazing experience.
I saw shapes of Milky way, before but this was on completely different level.
I think the altitude of 3000 m makes substantial difference. There you don't have any light pollution but also the air is already thin enough to give you unforgettable experience of pure connection with the universe.

Then finally, just when you think that it can not get better then this, on the brink of dawn, we reached the summit and saw and felt unforgettable sunrise that will, at least in my case, stay forever in my memories.

I would like to use this opportunity to thank Veltra team and especially to our guide Stefan for allowing me to experience this unforgettable sunrise.

Sincerely.

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック＆シュノーケルツアー　海中洞窟探検プランあり　＜早朝・午前／日本語ガイド＞by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

First sea kayaking 初シーカヤック

Reviewed by: くまさん

The meeting place is near the Sheraton Hotel, so I think it would be very convenient if you're staying at this hotel. We stayed in Kona, so we used Uber for round trips. I didn't realize that I had received several calls from our guide Noni the day before. We participated in the afternoon tour, but I heard that in the early morning, the waves are not as high and the water clarity is better, making it great for snorkeling. Due to our schedule, we could only participate in the afternoon, but I would like to join the early morning tour next time (*^^*).

シェラトンホテル近くが集合場所なので、このホテル滞在ならとても便利だと思います。私達はコナ滞在でしたので、往復Uberを利用しました。
前日から何度もガイドのノニさんから電話をもらっていたのに気がつかず。午後ツアーに参加したのですが、早朝、午前中の方が波が高くなく海の透明度が高くてシュノーケリングも楽しめるそうです。
日程の都合で午後しか参加できなかったのですが、次回は早朝に参加したいです(*^^*)

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾　シュノーリングツアー ＜軽食付き／英語ガイド＞

A dolphin is doing a spin jump right next to the boat. ボートのすぐ横でイルカがスピンジャンプ

Reviewed by: kaname

We had plenty of time at two snorkeling points and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. Along the way, a pod of 5 or 6 dolphins started swimming right next to the boat, and they performed big spin jumps several times—what a lucky experience! Since we were on a Zodiac, we were able to speedily enter deep into coastal caves, which was a lot of fun. We enjoyed a roughly 4-hour tour with an international mix of a family from Canada, a couple from Brazil, and just the two of us. The captain and staff were friendly. The guidance was in English, but I think as long as you can manage basic conversation, it shouldn't be a problem.

2カ所のシュノーケルポイントでの時間もたっぷり、存分に楽しめました。
途中5・6頭のイルカがボートの真横で泳ぎ始め、何度も大きくスピンジャンプしてくれて大ラッキー!!
ゾディアックなので、スピード感たっぷりで海岸の洞窟にも深く入ることができ、とても楽しめます。
カナダからのファミリーとブラジルからのカップルと私たち二人というインターナショナルな組み合わせで約4時間のツアーを楽しめました。
キャプテンはじめスタッフもフレンドリー。英語だけの案内になりますが、カタコト日常会話できれば、特に問題はないと思います。

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

First time horseback riding! Waipi'o is the best! 初めての乗馬！ワイピオ最高！

Reviewed by: あけみ

My first horseback riding experience! Even though my English is terrible, I had a great time.

First, they explained how to handle the horse. Of course, it was in English, but they also provided important points in broken Japanese, and with gestures, I was able to understand most of it.

As soon as we mounted, the well-behaved horses moved along, taking breaks by the water and grazing. I enjoyed the negative ions of Waipi'o while learning about taro, noni, and kukui trees!

The view from the observation deck was amazing, but the sight of Hiilawe Falls from below was also magnificent.

初めての乗馬！しかも英語はまるっきりダメな私でしたが、充分楽しめました。
先ず初めに馬の操作を説明されます。勿論英語ですが、重要な所はカタコトの日本語で説明がありジェスチャーでだいたいは分かります。
直ぐに騎乗するとお利口さんな馬達が、水辺で休憩したり草を食べたりしながら進みます。
タロイモ、ノニやククイの木々など説明を受けながらワイピオのマイナスイオンをたっぷり味わいました！
展望台から見る景色も最高ですが、下から見るヒイラベの滝も雄大でした。

プライベートチャーター　ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー！GoProレンタルあり＜午前／日本語ガイド＞

I'm fine on my own. ひとりでも平気

Reviewed by: ナギサ

It was my first time snorkeling, and it had been a while since I last went into the ocean, but I had so much fun that I forgot all about that! The staff were all very thoughtful in making sure everyone could see the dolphins, and it was especially enjoyable to watch Daisuke swimming with them. I was so captivated by the dolphins that it was hard to stay close to everyone. I definitely want to participate again if I come back, and if there's anyone hesitating about going alone, I really encourage you to join! In the session I attended, there were three people who came alone.

シュノーケリングは初めてでしたし、海に入るのも久しぶりでしたが、そんなこと忘れるぐらい楽しかった！
スタッフの方が皆さんイルカが見れるようにいろいろ考えてくださっていて、何よりダイスケさんがイルカと一緒に泳いでるのを見てるのも楽しかったです。
イルカに夢中になり過ぎて、皆さんと離れないようにするのが大変なぐらいでした。
また来たら是非参加したいですし、お一人の方で迷ってる方がいたら是非参加して欲しいです。
私が参加した会は、一人の方も3人いましたよ。
