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

I was able to encounter a scene that can only be experienced now. 今だからこその光景に出会えました

Reviewed by: 星空初心者

My first trip to the Big Island of Hawaii was highly anticipated, especially since the tour of Kilauea Volcano was canceled due to the eruption. I was really looking forward to the starry sky from Mauna Kea.

Since we left the hotel before 4 PM, I was able to explore the town of Kona during the day. I'm glad I could make good use of my limited schedule.

Climbing to over 4,000 meters was thrilling, but we quickly reached the summit in a 4WD vehicle. The lunch we had at the Onizuka Visitor Center was just like a Japanese bento, which was comforting. (laughs)

We were blessed with good weather, and we were able to see both the sunset and the starry sky under great conditions! I think it was my first time seeing the Southern Cross.

Additionally, not only the starry sky but also the sight of Kilauea Volcano's eruption glowing red in the darkness was moving. It was lucky that we couldn't get close due to traffic restrictions around the volcano. This might be a unique landscape that can only be seen now.

The tour guide, Tyler, was attentive to the participants throughout the tour, which was nice. I definitely want to use this service again.

初のハワイ島旅行、楽しみにしていたキラウエア火山が噴火影響でツアー中止になった事もあり、マウナケアからの星空に思いっきり期待しての参加です。
ホテルを16時前に出発だったこともあり、日中はコナの街を観光。限られた
日程をうまく使えて嬉しいですね。
4000m超の山という事もありドキドキでしたが4WD車で一気に山頂へ到着。
途中立ち寄ったオニヅカ・ビジターセンターでのお弁当も、日本のお弁当その物で少しホッと出来ました。(笑)
天気にも恵まれ、サンセットも星空も良い条件で見ることが出来ました!
南十字星を見たのはたぶん初めてです。
また、星空だけでなく、キラウエア火山の噴火の様子が暗闇に赤く浮かび上がっていてこちらも感動。火山周辺は交通規制で近づけなかったのでラッキー
でした。今だからこその風景なのかもです。
ツアーガイド(タイラさん)も、ツアー参加者に常に気を配っていて感じが
良かったです。また是非ご利用したいと思います。

I was moved to be able to see many manta rays up close!! 沢山のマンタを間近で見る事が出来感動しました!!

Reviewed by: さくらちゃん

This was the most enjoyable tour I've ever experienced for activities on the Big Island. I was moved by the sight of manta rays doing backflips underwater and sucking in plankton up close. This tour is one that I would definitely do again for the incredible experience it offers. I highly recommend it. My whole family was very happy as well.

ハワイ島でのアクティビティで今までで一番、楽しむ事が出来るツアーでした。
すぐ間近でマンタが水中バク転をしてプランクトンを吸い込む姿には感動しました。

マンタ大学夜学部 野生のマンタ&ナイトシュノーケリングツアー <送迎可/日本語スタッフ乗船日あり>

It was an amazing experience. すごい体験でした

Reviewed by: みのさん

You can see manta rays really up close. The manta rays illuminated by blue light cross right in front of you over and over again. This was a wonderful experience. Alicia, who speaks Japanese well, explained everything clearly, so both my middle school daughter and us in our late forties enjoyed it without any worries.

As a note, if you're not confident in swimming, don't hesitate to borrow a life jacket (free of charge). If you check the water temperature and feel it's even a little cold, you should rent a wetsuit for a fee. If you're prone to seasickness, be sure to take motion sickness medication.

We zoomed to the spot where the manta rays are located by boat, and since we were in the night sea for 40 minutes, it was quite chilly in mid-June. They don't provide a tutorial on how to use the snorkel, so if it's your first time, it's better to ask how to use it once you receive it. They will talk about not touching the manta rays and safety precautions before entering the water, so make sure to follow those instructions.

After starting the snorkeling, they check on you multiple times asking, "Are you okay?" So if you feel uncomfortable, it's better to get back on the boat. It's a wonderful experience, so feel free to ask for assistance, and enjoy it while considering your own stamina and condition.

マンタが本当にすぐ近くで見られます。青い光に照らされたマンタが目の前を何度も何度も横切ります。
これは素晴らしい経験でした。
日本語の上手なアリシアちゃんがきちんと説明をしてくれたので、中学生の娘もアラフィフの私たちもなんの不安もなく楽しめました。
注意点としては、泳ぎに自信がないなら迷わずライフジャケット(無料)を借りること。水温を確認して少しでも冷たいと思ったら有料のウェットスーツは借りること。船酔いの恐れがある人は酔い止めを必ず飲むこと
マンタのいるスポットまでボートで飛ばしますし、40分間夜の海に浸っているので、6月半ばではかなり冷えました。
シュノーケルの使い方は講習的なことはやってくれません。初体験の方は渡されたらどう使うかを聞いたほうが良いです。
海に入る前にマンタを触らないことや態勢の注意点を話してくれるのできちんと守りましょう。
シュノーケルを始めた後、途中で「大丈夫?」と何度も声かけしてくれるので、辛いと思ったらボートに上がったほうが良いです。
せっかくの素敵な体験です。声をかければ対応してくれるので、自分の体力や体調と相談しながら楽しんでください。

It was just as rumored. ほんとうわさ通りでした

Reviewed by: フェミちゃん

Wow, I was surprised when a real manta ray came towards me with its mouth open! It gracefully swam by, flipping over to show its white belly. There were fish similar to horse mackerel swimming right next to me, and the water was so clear that I could see snake-like fish slithering along the seabed. I definitely recommend enjoying the natural beauty of the Big Island of Hawaii. When a manta ray appears, you should jump in the water and stay underwater for about 30 minutes in a horizontal position. There are occasionally cold currents, so it's better to rent a wetsuit. I think it would be tough to participate on a full stomach since the boat sways when it stops.

いゃぁ〜、本物のマンタが口を開けてこっちに向かって来たときにはビックリしました‼️ (口は閉じれるのか?)目の前で体を反転させ腹の白い部分を見せて、優雅に泳いでました。
鯵に似た魚もすぐ側を泳いでいて、海底では海へびのような魚もニョロニョロしているのがわかるくらいの透明度が高い海です。
ハワイ島の自然を是非楽しんでほしいですね。
マンタが現れたら入水し、30分は水中でケノビ状態でいます。時たま冷たい流れがあるので、ウエットスーツは借りた方がいいです。 停船すると波でゆれるので、お腹いっぱいで参加するのはキツイと思います。

I was moved to see dolphins swimming and playing right in front of me! 目の前をイルカが、泳ぎ遊んでる様に感動!!

Reviewed by: ノンさん

With the help of the friendly Daisuke and Kevin, as well as the slightly shy but cheerful captain, we headed out to sea! At first, I was a bit nervous, but when we encountered dolphins, my excitement grew more and more. Watching Daisuke swim joyfully with the dolphins made me want to join in, but since I couldn't dive, it was impossible. However, I was truly moved to see the dolphins up close. Although I shouldn't reach out to touch them, they were so close that it felt like I could. The fun time flew by in an instant. The anxiety I felt before participating turned into smiles.

気さくでフレンドリーなダイスケさんやケビンさん、少しシャイだけれども陽気な船長さんに助けていただきながら海にGO!!
初めは少し、恐々でしたがイルカに遭遇しどんどんテンションも上がりました
楽しくイルカと泳ぐダイスケさんを見ていると自分も一緒に泳ぎたくなりますが…潜れないので無理でした。でもとても近くで見るイルカちゃんには、とても感動しました。手を伸ばして触ってはいけないのですが、触れそうなほど近くにイルカちゃんがいました。楽しい時間は、あっという間でした。参加する前の不安は、笑顔に変わっていました。

Drew was fantastic!!

Reviewed by: Avocado thief+2

Wow! We had the pleasure of taking the historic Kona tour with Drew. It was an amazing day! Drew has an energy and enthusiasm about the island that is infectious! He took us to beautiful spots that were advertised and even a few of his favorites that were off the beaten path a bit. The thing that stood out was the intricate knowledge of the historical significance of all the places that we went that Drew was able to share with us. I’ve been to a few of these spots before but never understood them as I do now and that’s all from our great guide. Drew, I hope you know that you shared with us a memory that we will all hold dear for life!

Reviewed by: T &A

Honestly, I didn't expect to see so many dolphins. On this day, we were lucky and encountered a pod of dolphins right after we set sail. My wife was nervous about swimming, but the guide took the time to teach each person how to swim, which made her feel at ease to participate in the tour. Above all, we could feel the love that our guide, Daisuke, had for the dolphins. Thanks to him, we were able to swim with the dolphins together as a couple, creating the best memories. Thank you very much.

正直、こんなにもイルカに会えるとは思っていませんでした。この日はタイミングが良く、出港してすぐにイルカの群れと会う事ができました。
泳ぎに不安だった妻でしたが苦手な人に対して1人1人に泳ぎ方を教えてくれて、安心してツアーに参加する事ができました。
何よりもガイドのダイスケさんのイルカに対する愛を感じました。そのお陰で夫婦でイルカと一緒に泳ぐ事ができ最高の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。

Despite the concerns raised by the news of the Kilauea volcano eruption, we set off for the Big Island of Hawaii! We enjoyed ourselves without any problems. Of course, we encountered manta rays. Shortly after entering the water, the manta rays came to us. Our Japanese guide, a stylish woman named Tori from Chiba Prefecture, took great care to ease everyone's nerves and provided us with a wonderful experience. Thank you very much.

The sunset, starry sky, and moon viewed from Mauna Kea... マウナケアから見る夕陽、星空、そして月...

Reviewed by: Mahana Hiroko

In 2018, it seemed like the weather was unpredictable, and I was worried about whether I would be able to see the sunset and starry sky.

At 15:35, we were picked up from the hotel, and according to our cheerful guide, Kon, the previous day had bad weather, but the area near the summit of Mauna Kea above the cloud sea had clear blue skies. Lucky!!!

We were able to see a beautiful sunset! Our guide, Kon, took several wonderful photos of us, a group of eight, along with a newlywed couple, with the sunset in the background. Everyone was having a great time posing for pictures.

After that, we moved to a different location for stargazing. Since it was quite windy, they made a windbreak with the car, which was thoughtful. Good job! The day we participated was about two days after the full moon, so the moon rose a little later, allowing us to see the starry sky. We could also see the Southern Cross. Additionally, we were able to see the sky glowing red from the distant eruption of Kilauea. It was a unique experience.

And then the moon rose. It felt like it was the brightest moon I had ever seen. To enjoy stargazing, it’s best to avoid the full moon. It would be wise to check the moon phases before making a reservation.

Of course, taking photos with the starry sky in the background requires a good camera; otherwise, the stars won’t show up. Kon shared his wonderful knowledge about the stars and explained everything in a fun way while using a pointer. The guiding beyond just the starry sky was also excellent.

Whether you can enjoy an activity tour largely depends on the guide. In my personal opinion, Kon was really great.

Since all the participants were from the same hotel, we were able to return to the hotel earlier than expected. I think we arrived around 22:45.

On the day we participated, it was quite windy near the summit, but the temperature was higher than usual, so I was fine with just a trainer and a light down jacket from Uniqlo, along with the jacket and pants borrowed from the tour company. I did use a portable hand warmer just in case. (The portable hand warmer needs to be taken out of the bag below to warm up, as Kon advised.)

I think I got a bit too excited at the summit, as I had a slight headache on the way back. (It didn’t get too bad.) I realized that it can happen on the way back too.

I thoroughly enjoyed the nature of the Big Island. I highly recommend this tour. Next time, I plan to go see the sunrise.

It was a very good experience. Thank you, guide Kon!

2018年今年は、天候が不順のようで、夕陽と星空が見られるか心配しながらの参加でした。
15:35ホテルピックアップ、明るいガイドのコンちゃんの話によると、前日は悪天候だったとのことでしたが、雲海の上のマウナケア山頂付近はクリアな青空でした。ラッキー!!!

きれいな夕陽をみることができました!ガイドのコンちゃんは、夕陽をバックに友人と二人参加の私達、8人グループ、新婚さんと、それぞれの素敵な写真を何枚も撮ってくれました。みんな大はしゃぎでポーズをとってました。
その後、場所を移動して星空観察。風が強かったので、車で風よけを作ってくれる配慮。Good Job! 参加した日が満月の翌々日くらいで、月が昇る時間が少し遅くなっていたので、星空を見ることができました。南十字星も見えました。そして、遠くにキラウエアの噴火で赤く染まる空を見ることもできました。今ならではですね。
そして、月が昇るのも。こんなに明るい月は、初めてのような気がします。
星空をみるには、満月を避けたいですね。事前に月の満ち欠けを調べてから、申し込みをした方が良いですね。
もちろん、星空をバックに写真撮影、好感度のカメラでないと星は写りませんね。
コンちゃんは、星空の素晴らしい知識で、ポインターを使いながら楽しく説明をしてくれました。星空以外のガイドもすごく良かったです。
アクティビティツアーを楽しめるかは、ガイドさんによるところが大きいです。私の個人的な意見ですが...コンちゃんは、すごく良かったです。
今回の参加メンバーは、全員が同じホテルだったこともあり、ホテルに戻るのが思っていたより早く帰ることができました。
22:45くらいには、着いていたと思います。

私たちが参加した日は、頂上付近は風が強かったですが、気温はいつもより高かったので、トレナーとユニクロのライトダウンに、ツアー会社で借りた上着とズボンで大丈夫でした。一応、携帯カイロは使いました。(携帯カイロは、下で袋から出さないと温かくならないそうです。コンちゃんアドバイスあり)
私は、頂上ではしゃぎ過ぎたせいか、帰路で少し頭が痛くなりました。(ひどくはなりませんでした)帰りでもあるんだなと思いました。

ハワイ島の自然を満喫できました。お薦めツアーです。次回は、日の出を見に行こうと思います。
とても良い経験が、できました。
ガイドのコンちゃん、ありがとうございました!

I participated in this tour for my honeymoon trip. There were other similar tours available, but I chose this one for three reasons: 1. a 95% chance of encountering dolphins, 2. many repeat customers, and most importantly, 3. it's suitable even for those who are not good swimmers!

If you're someone who wants to see dolphins but is a bit hesitant about swimming, I highly recommend this tour!

Even for someone like me who struggles with swimming, the guide provided excellent support, allowing me to enjoy the experience without worry. It was truly fun!

The guide was very knowledgeable about dolphins, and you could really feel the connection they had with them. I couldn't help but think that they might have been a dolphin in a past life! (laughs)

今回はハネムーン旅行で参加しました
。他にも似たようなツアーがありましたが、こちらを選んだ理由は1.イルカ遭遇率95% 、 2.リピーターが多い事、そして何より3.泳ぎが苦手な人でも大丈夫!とありましたので申し込みしました。

イルカは見たいけど泳ぎがちょっと、、、と思ってる方がいましたら是非こちらお薦めします!

泳ぎが苦手な私でも、安心して楽しめるようにガイドさんがしっかりフォローして下さって、本当に楽しかったです!

ガイドさん、イルカを熟知されてて、イルカと心を通わせてるのが伝わってきて、前世ではイルカだったんじゃないかな?と思わず考えてしまうほどでした。笑

A bright red sunset and a starry sky! 真っ赤なサンセットと満点の星空!

Reviewed by: I.S

Last May, I participated in the Sunrise stargazing tour and had such a great time that this time, I joined the Sunset & Stargazing tour for my honeymoon trip. This year, I was worried because the weather on the ground was not very clear, possibly due to the effects of the Kilauea volcano a month ago, but the area near the summit was a completely different world! The sunset was perfect, with the sunlight reflecting off the clouds, creating a bright red sky. During the stargazing, as time went on, the sky filled with countless stars! The guide was very unique and fun, making the experience very enjoyable! By the way, it’s a good idea to check the moonrise time when choosing between sunset or sunrise for stargazing.

I hope to participate again next time. Thank you!

昨年5月にサンライズの星空観測ツアーに参加してとても良かったので、今回はハネムーン旅行でこちらのサンセット&星空観測ツアーに参加しました。
今年は1ヶ月前のキラウエア火山の影響もあってか、地上はあまり晴れやかな天気が少なく心配してましたが、山頂付近は全くの別世界!サンセットは雲に丁度良く太陽の光が反射して真っ赤な空が見れました。星空観測では、時間が経つにつれて出て来る出て来る満点の星空!
ガイドさんもとても個性的で楽しく、明るくとても楽しむ事が出来ました!
因みに…星空観測の際は、月の出る時間を調べてサンセットかサンライズを選ぶと良いそうですよ★

また次回、参加したいなと思います。

Once in a lifetime 一生に一度は

Reviewed by: yumitan

I was worried about the weather being cloudy on the day and whether we would be able to observe the stars, but after arriving at the Onizuka Center, the clouds cleared, and we were able to see the sunset and Maui Island. As it got dark, the main stargazing experience was the best memory, something I can't experience in Japan. The outflow from Kilauea Volcano to the sea was also clearly visible. I brought my digital SLR and tripod, so I was able to take many photos of the stars (which can't be captured with a smartphone camera or digital camera). The driver will take some photos for you, so it's okay if you don't have a DSLR. I participated this time with my daughter, but next time I will join with my husband.

当日の天気は曇っていて星空観察ができるか心配しておりましたが、オニズカセンターに着きしばらくすると雲も流れ去り、サンセットもマウイ島も見る事ができました。暗くなりメインの星空観察は日本では体験できない位、最高の思い出です。キラウエア火山からの海への流出もはっきりと見えました。私はデジタル一眼レフと三脚持参でしたので、沢山の星を撮ることが、出来ました。(スマホのカメラやデジタルカメラでは撮影できないので。)
ドライバーさんが何枚かは撮影してくれますので、一眼レフ、お持ちでない方OKですよ。
今回は娘と参加しましたが、次回は主人と参加します。

Dear yumitan,

Thank you very much for participating in our Mauna Kea sunset and stargazing tour. As expected, the weather in the mountains can change quickly, so you never know until you go. We are very pleased that you were able to enjoy the wonderful views from Mauna Kea.

In June, you had the unique opportunity to observe the situation at Fisher 8 following the Kilauea eruption from Mauna Kea, making it a very valuable and timely tour. Currently, parts of the Kilauea Volcano National Park are temporarily closed due to budget considerations, but you can still enter and enjoy the World Heritage site.

We hope that next time, your husband can join you on the nature school tour. All of our staff sincerely look forward to your return to the island.

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

Great Experience - Great tour

Reviewed by: Athan

the views from the top of Mauna Kea are breathtaking, despite the cold. Jeff, our host was the best tour guide, funny, friendly and veru knowledgeable of the the tour and the history of the sites. All along the tour he would explain the site you are crossing and the topography.
The star gazing experience is somehting cool for someone neer seen into space before.

Brownies and hot chocolate at the end of the tour is the epitpomy of a great evening.

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

Somehow, the sunset! 何とかサンセットだけは!

Reviewed by: かわうそ姉さん

Since it was almost a full moon and cloudy, I didn't have high expectations for the starry sky (laughs). Our tour guide, JIN, was very knowledgeable and provided explanations that I hadn't heard on other tours, which was very educational. I also appreciated how much he respected the Japanese community, which came through in his conversation. (After returning home, I reflected on their achievements as well.)

At the actual summit of Mauna Kea, both my husband and I experienced symptoms of altitude sickness, which was unexpected (but don't worry, it wasn't severe!). I realized we shouldn't underestimate it (though we got used to it quickly—maybe it's due to our age). My husband was thrilled to finally visit the location of the National Astronomical Observatory and the Subaru Telescope, which he had always admired. The sunset was incredibly beautiful with the contrast of the clouds and the sunset, making it the highlight of our trip.

Although the stargazing didn't turn out as hoped, we were able to take photos with the volcano thanks to JIN's photography skills. As expected! I would love to visit again during a new moon when the volcanic activity has calmed down.

ほぼ満月ということ、曇っていたので星空は元々期待せずに参加(笑)。
ツアーガイドのJINさんは博学で、前日別ツアーにはない説明もしてくださり、
とても勉強になりました。また日系の方々をとてもリスペクトされていることが、話から伝わってきて好感が持てました。(帰国後彼らの功績を私も振り返ってみました)
実際のマウナケア山頂は思いのほか高山病?的な症状に夫婦揃って罹り(でも
重症ではないですのでご安心を!)侮ってはいけないと思いました(でも、すぐに慣れました・年齢のせいかしら)。
主人はずっと憧れていた国立天文台・すばる望遠鏡の場所に来れたことに感動していました。サンセットは雲と夕日のコントラストでとても美しく、今回の旅での一番の記念になりました。
星空観測は残念な結果となりましたが、JINさんの撮影で火山と一緒に撮影することができました。さすが!
今度は、新月で火山噴火が落ち着いたころにまた訪れたいです。

マンタ大学夜学部 野生のマンタ&ナイトシュノーケリングツアー <送迎可/日本語スタッフ乗船日あり>

Manta Dance マンタ乱舞

Reviewed by: ちゃる

During my stay on the Big Island this time, I had to change my original plans due to the eruption of Kilauea volcano, but the manta night snorkeling I was able to fit in became my best memory.

The boat moves forward, chasing the sunset sinking into the horizon from the harbor. It's a large rubber boat, so we straddle the edge and enjoy the feeling of being on a banana boat. After about 10 minutes, we arrive at the snorkeling point.

There is a bright light installed under a large surfboard-shaped float, and while holding on, we waited… and after about 4 or 5 minutes, they came! Mantas started gathering around us! They were gracefully gliding and feeding right in front of us. We had to be careful not to bump into them as they were so close that we could see inside their mouths and gills clearly.

There were nearly 10 individuals. Out of the 40 minutes we spent underwater, 30 minutes were filled with a manta ballet show. I have seen mantas while diving before, but the proximity and density were on a completely different level. It was truly a wonderful experience. I highly recommend it!

今回のハワイ島滞在は、キラウエア火山の噴火で当初の予定を変更せざるおえなかったのですが、開いた時間に入れたマンタナイトシュノーケリングが一番の思い出になりました。
港から水平線に沈むサンセットを追いかけるように船は進みます。大きなゴムボートなので船縁にまたがり、バナナボート気分を楽しむこと10分程でポイントに着きます。
大きなサーフボード状の浮きの裏に明るいライトが設置してあり、つかまりながら待っていると…4,5分程で来ました来ましたマンタが集まってきました!
目の前でくるりくるりと舞いながら補食していました。あまりにも近くでマンタにぶつからないように注意が必要なほどで、口の中やエラの中までしっかり見えました。
個体数は10枚近くでしょうか。水中にいた40分のうち30分はマンタ乱舞ショーでした。
今までダイビングでマンタを見た事もありますが、近さと密度が段違いです。本当に良い経験になりました。オススメです!

ハワイ島 アトランティス潜水艦 ハワイの海底アドベンチャー <日本語オーディオガイド> 

First submarine 初めての潜水艦

Reviewed by: NOB

It was a cloudy day... I arrived early and parked the rental car in the hotel parking lot to check in. There was a counter outside the hotel and a store located a bit deeper inside, which was a little confusing. When the time came, I boarded a contact boat with about 20 participants, including several Japanese people, and in a few minutes, we reached the submarine.

We quickly boarded and began our dive... I enjoyed about 40 minutes while watching the coral and the fish swimming around. We dove down to about 100 feet, or 30 meters, but it felt a bit dark, possibly due to the cloudy sky, and I felt a greater distance from the fish than I expected. It might have been more beautiful if it had been sunny.

At the counter, they put a sticker on the parking ticket to cover the fee. When I tried to pay with my card, it didn’t recognize it, and I panicked a bit as several cars lined up behind me, but I called and they opened it for me, so it all worked out.

当日は曇り空…早めに到着しホテルの駐車場にレンタカーを止めて受付。 ホテルの外のカウンターとホテル内の少し奥にある店舗があり、少し戸惑いました。 時間になると日本人数名を含む20名ほどの参加者と共に連絡用の船に乗り込み数分で潜水艦へ。
早速乗り込み潜水開始…サンゴやそこを泳ぐ魚を見ながら40分程楽しみました。100フィート、30メートル程まで潜りましたが、曇り空のせいか若干暗く感じたのと思っていたより魚と距離感を感じました。 晴れていればもっと綺麗だったのかもしれません。
カウンターで駐車券にステッカーを貼ってくれて料金をカバーしてくれます。2ドル足りずにカード支払いしようとしたらカードを認識せず…後ろに数台並び焦りましたが、電話して開けてもらい事なきを得ました。

You can see Kilauea! キラウエアが見えるとは!

Reviewed by: また新月狙って来ねば!

I learned a lot of things I didn't know thanks to our guide, Jin's, knowledgeable explanations. The high-altitude clouds and the brightness of the moon made it difficult to see the stars, but I felt that if I climbed a mountain in Japan, I would be able to see a more starry sky. However, we did get to take commemorative photos with the red glow of the lava from Kilauea, which is 100 km away, falling into the sea in the background. The impact is different with a professional camera.

ガイドの仁さんの博学な説明で、知らなかったことを沢山学びました。高層雲がかかったのと、月が明るすぎて星の見え方は今ひとつ、日本でも山に登ればもっと満天の星空が見えるという感じでした。でも、100kmも離れたキラウエアの熔岩が海に落ちる所が赤く光っているのをバックに記念撮影して頂きました。プロのカメラだと迫力が違いますね。

I arrived a bit early, and perhaps due to the eruption, there were fewer customers, but I was guided to the best seat in the standard section and was able to see the show perfectly. The Mai Tai and Hawaiian cocktails were delicious. I wasn't sure when to get the food and ended up grabbing some of the kids' items prematurely. It's best to wait, as they will guide you in order later.

Pearl Harbor Tour.

Reviewed by: William Geisler

Air accommodations were taken care of for us. Flights were good but there was confusion as to when the flights left. Very emotional day. Lots to see. There were 14 in our group. It was difficult to understand when and where we were meeting at different times throughout the day. It wasn't just us, many were confused. Hard to understand the guide. He was very nice. We were not able to see the Arizona Memorial up close because of the safety issue. No one's fault, we understood. We are glad we did take this trip.
