野生のマンタ シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/軽食付き>

Perfect for families. 家族連れに最適

Reviewed by: モアナ

This was my first experience with my family. Personally, it was my third time, but I’ll briefly outline the pros and cons.

First, the pros:
1. The marina is very close to the points, so the total travel time is short.
2. The boat is large and comfortable.
3. There was a child who gets seasick on board, but since the points are close, I think it was relatively easy for them.

Now, the cons:
1. The explanations are only in English, but I don’t think that will be a problem.
2. The journey is short, so you can’t enjoy the scenery of Kona town.

Depending on the timing, I think the LED lights were strong, and we had a relatively good number of sightings.

I plan to come back here next time as well.

家族連れでは初体験でした。
個人的には3度目でしたが簡単に長所と短所を書いておきます。

まず長所
1、マリーナからポイントまでが非常に近くに全行程の所要時間が短くて済む。
2、船が大きくて快適。
3、船酔いしやすい子が同船してましたがポイントまでが近いので比較的楽だと思います。

で短所
1、英語の説明しかないが困る事は無いと思う。
2、道中が短いのでコナの街の景色を眺める事が出来ない。

タイミングにもよると思いますがLEDのライトが強く比較的沢山来てくれたと思います。

次回からもここにしようと思います。

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset and Stargazing Tour (Reflecting Telescope) by Masashi Nature School マウナケアケア山頂サンセット安土星空観察ツアー〈反射望遠鏡〉byマサシネイチャースクール

Reviewed by: デビちゃん

This year, I wanted to take my daughter to see the sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea and the stargazing experience. Masashi Nature School provided us with warm clothing, hats, and gloves, and the bento and miso soup were delicious, with the cocoa after the meal being very tasty as well. The sunset was beautiful, and the explanation for the stargazing was easy to understand. There was also a service of tea and cookies, which was very comforting in the cold. Last year, when I participated in another tour, they only lent me a jacket, and that was after we arrived at the summit, so I had a cold and experienced altitude sickness. This time, the service was exceptional, and I am very grateful for Matsucchan's lively explanations and photography skills. My daughter was also very satisfied. I was moved by the Milky Way. From now on, I would like to ask Masashi Nature School for their services.

今年は娘を連れてきて、マウナケアケア山頂サンセットと星空観察は是非見せたかったものでした。マサシネイチャースクールさんは、上下防寒着と帽子、手袋まで貸してくださった上、お弁当や味噌汁も美味しく、食後のココアもとても美味しかった。サンセットは綺麗で、星空観察の説明もわかりやすく、紅茶とクッキーのサービスがあり、寒い中あったかいものがとても嬉しかった。昨年他のツアーで参加した時は、防寒着は上だけしか貸してくれず、それも山頂に着いてからだったので、寒くて高山病にかかってしまった経験のある私には、至れり尽くせりのサービスで、松っちゃんのノリのいい説明と写真撮影の技術にとても感謝しています。娘も大満足していました。ミルキーウエイには感動しました。これからは、マサシネイチャースクールにお願いしたいと思います。

野生のイルカウォッチング&シュノーケリングツアー <朝食・昼食付き>

Is it a coincidence that we can see dolphins? イルカが見れるのは偶然?

Reviewed by: たーくんママ

We were lucky enough to see dolphins by chance, but I felt that encountering them depends on luck since we didn't forcefully search for or chase them. The boat swayed, but it was a large vessel, so I felt safe. The restrooms were clean, and the staff members were kind (they can communicate in English).

私たちは偶然イルカを見ることができましたが、無理にイルカを探したり追いかけたりすることをしないので、イルカに遭遇できるかは運次第かな?と感じました。
船は揺れますが、大きな船なので安心でした。トイレもキレイで、スタッフの方々も親切でした。(英語対応ですが)

Milky Way 天の川

Reviewed by: ミケコ

I love the Big Island and have visited many times, but this was my first time participating in this tour, which I had been curious about. The bus slowly ascended towards the summit of Mauna Kea, and I could feel the thinning oxygen. During a break, we enjoyed a bento box and warm drinks, and after putting on our warm clothing, we finally reached the top! It felt like a different world! There were people snowboarding on the snow-covered mountain. And the sea of clouds spread out below us! The sun gradually set, and we were able to see a magnificent sunset. The surroundings were enveloped in the evening glow, and I could feel the mana in the sacred atmosphere. From there, the crescent moon and Venus appeared, and as it got darker, the night sky was filled with stars. I've never seen the Milky Way so clearly! The guide used a pointer to explain the constellations, making it easy to understand! There was also a service for warm drinks, and we could take commemorative photos with a high-performance camera against the starry sky. It was a wonderful service to be able to view and download the photos taken during the tour later on the web. I'm really glad I participated. I'm grateful for the amazing experience!

ハワイ島が大好きで、何度も訪れていましたが、このツアーは気になっていながらも初参加でした。
バスはゆっくりとマウナケアの山頂へ向けて登って行き、次第に酸素が薄くなるのが分かります。
途中の休憩でお弁当と温かい飲み物も頂き、防寒着を着用したらいよいよ頂上です~(^.^)
そこはまるで別世界!雪に覆われた山ではスノボーをしている人もいました。
そして眼下に広がる雲海!太陽が徐々に沈み、見事な夕陽を見ることができました♪
辺りは夕焼けに包まれ、神聖な空気の中にマナを感じることができます。
そこからは三日月と金星が現れ、暗くなるにつれて夜空は満点の星☆
こんなにはっきりと天の川を見たことはありません!
ガイドさんがポインターを使って星座を説明してくれるので分かりやすい!!
そこでは温かい飲み物のサービスと、星空をバックに高性能カメラで記念写真も撮って貰えます。
ツアー中に撮って貰った写真を後からWebで見れてダウンロードできるのは、とても嬉しいサービスですね♪
参加して本当に良かったです。素晴らしい体験ができて感謝です>^_^<

I am very satisfied with the abundance of fish. 魚たくさん満足

Reviewed by: water

There are many fish in the shallow area. I was surprised when I was surrounded by yellow tangs.
It's also recommended for energetic kids to slide down from the boat's slide or jump off the diving board.
If you're not confident or worried about getting tired, you can wear a floatation belt around your torso for peace of mind.
Breakfast and lunch are enjoyable on the boat. The meat for the lunch burgers is freshly grilled on the boat and delicious.
I also got to see dolphins.

浅い方に魚がたくさん。キイロハギに囲まれた時はびっくり。
船から滑り台で滑り降りたり、ジャンプ台から飛び込んだり、元気なお子さんにもオススメです。

I was thrilled to see the manta rays!! マンタに感激!!

Reviewed by: さくらちゃん

I had missed the chance to see manta rays in Palau and Ishigaki Island, so I joined the tour with the hope that this time I wouldn't miss out. My family was actually quite skeptical, thinking it might be impossible. However, I’m really glad I went! On that day, three manta rays came to us, and they turned around multiple times, which was just amazing! This was the best memory from my experience on the Big Island. I hope everyone can have a wonderful experience at Manta University as well. If I have the opportunity to go back to the Big Island, I would love to participate again.

これまでにパラオ、石垣島でマンタに出会うチャンスをのがしていたので、今度こそとの思いでツアーに参加しました。家族はもう無理じゃない?と実のところ後ろ向きでした。しかし、行ってみて本当に良かったです。この日は3枚のマンタが来てくれて、なんどもターンしてくれてもう大感激でした!!今回のハワイ島での体験の中で一番の思い出です。ぜひみなさんもマンタ大学で素晴らしい体験をしてほしいです。またハワイ島にいく機会があれば、もう一度参加したいです。

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

The summit was a valuable experience. 山頂は貴重な体験でした。

Reviewed by: ゴンザレス

We were picked up in front of the condominium at 3 PM and headed to the summit after picking up four groups. The weather down below was sunny and cloudy, and as we climbed, the clouds thickened, making us uncertain if it was really clear. However, near the summit, it was perfectly clear, above the clouds.

I had heard that the sunrise was wonderful, but due to timing, we opted for the sunset, which was also quite magical and enjoyable. The altitude at the summit of Mauna Kea is a bit breathless, so it might be tough for those around middle school age.

After the sun set, we descended a bit for stargazing. Unfortunately, there were quite a few clouds, and the moon was too bright, which was a bit disappointing. However, there was a thorough explanation of the constellations, which was satisfying. We were able to return to the hotel by a little after 10 PM.

Overall, it was a satisfying activity. The time spent was long, from the afternoon to the evening, allowing us to enjoy the day. If you manage the time difference well, you might also be able to enjoy the sunrise.

午後3時にコンドミニアム前にお迎え、此処から4組をピックアップして山頂に向かいました。下での天候は晴れ、曇りで、登るにつれて雲が厚くなり、本当に晴れているのか不安でしたが、山頂付近は快晴、雲の上でした。
朝日が素晴らしいと聞いておりましたが、時間の問題で夕陽にしましたが、こちらもなかなか幻想的で良かったです。マウナケアの山頂は少々息が切れる高度ですので、中学生位まではきついかも。
日が沈んで少し下山して、星空観測。こちらは雲が少々多いのと、月が明る過ぎたので、ちょっと残念。でも丁寧な星座の説明もあり、満足。夜10時過ぎにはホテルに戻れました。
全体として満足のいくアクティビティでした。時間も午後~夜までと長く、一日楽しめました。時差を上手に使うと朝日も楽しめるかも知れないです。

Mother and child trip, first time to Hawaii Island. 母子旅行 初ハワイ島

Reviewed by: ぴなりん、

I visited the Big Island of Hawaii on a mother-daughter trip because I wanted to show my 13-year-old daughter the great outdoors and the starry sky. Due to our fixed schedule, we were unable to see the starry sky as we had hoped, especially since it was the day after the full moon and July has long days. However, I was very moved by the sunset from the summit. I was also surprised to see the magma from Kilauea Volcano coloring the sea of clouds orange.

Our guide, Jin, was highly professional and made every effort to ensure we had the best tour possible under the limited circumstances. He secured the best spots at the summit, arranged for us to take photos with a rare moonbow on the way down, and even made a stop on the way back when the clouds cleared a bit to show us the starry sky. Overall, it was a very satisfying tour, and I would like to try to see the starry sky again.

13歳の娘に大自然と星空を見せたくて母子旅行でハワイ島を訪れました。
日程が動かせないこともあり、満月の翌日、また7月は日も長いこともあり、期待した星空は残念ながら見ることができませんでした。でも頂上から見るサンセットにはとても感動。キラウェア火山のマグマが雲海をオレンジに染めているのにも驚きました。
ガイドのジンさんはプロ意識が高く、限られた状況の中でもベストなツアーとなるよう努力してくださいました。頂上でのベストな場所確保、下山途中に珍しいムーンボーとの写真撮影、更に帰りに少し雲が晴れたところで途中停車し星空を見せてくださる等、総合的に大満足のツアーとなりました。星空はもう一度チャレンジしたいと思います。

Starry night under the moon. 月夜の星空

Reviewed by: tenerife最高!

Overall, I think it's a tour similar to what others have described. However, while the Milky Way can be seen during a new moon, it becomes quite difficult once it surpasses a half moon. Even if the moon is said to look beautiful, since stargazing is the main focus, it was a bit disappointing. I wish I had checked the moon phase before booking.

概ね他の方が書いている通りのツアーだと思います。ただ、新月なら天の川も見えるのでしょうが、半月を超えてくるとまず難しいのではないでしょうか。月が綺麗に見えるといわれても星空観測がメインですからちょっとつらいものがありました。月齢を調べて申し込めば良かったと思いました。

A fantastic photo 幻想的な写真

Reviewed by: sky

I wasn't very confident with vehicles, so I was a bit worried, but I thought it might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to climb up to 4200 meters, so I decided to go for it. With a relaxed schedule that included photo opportunities, dinner, and bathroom breaks, we were able to reach the summit.

It felt quite strange to drive up to a summit of about 4200 meters. Even though I was wearing warm clothing, it was still cold (it seems it had been quite warm recently), and I felt the air was thin, so I was consciously breathing. From the summit, we were treated to a beautiful sunset, and I was able to get some wonderful photos with the sunset in the background. A little below the summit, we did some stargazing. Since it was three days before the full moon, the moon was too bright, and unfortunately, we couldn't see the Milky Way, but I was able to take some fantastic photos here as well, which made for great memories.

あまり乗り物が得意ではないので少し心配でしたが、4200mまで登ることなどこれからないかもしれないと思い、思い切って申込みました。途中写真撮影、夕食とトイレ休憩など、余裕のあるスケジュールで山頂まで行けました。
約4200mの山頂まで車で行くということでとても不思議な感じでした。車を降りると、防寒着は着ていても、やはり寒く(ここ最近ではかなり暖かかったようですが)、空気は薄く感じたので、意識して呼吸はしていました。山頂からはきれいな夕日、そして夕日をバックに素敵な写真を撮ってもらえました。山頂から少し降りたところで星空観察。満月の3日前ということで月がまぶしすぎ、残念ながら天の川など見ることができませんでしたが、ここでも幻想的な写真を撮ってもらいよい記念になりました。

No shuttle plan $110
It takes about 30 minutes by powerboat from the meeting point to arrive off the Sheraton Hotel. The sunset is amazing.
When we arrived, there were about 7 or 8 boats gathered.
After the sunset, we held onto the boat and enjoyed manta ray watching for about 40 minutes.
During that time, we saw manta rays ranging from 50 cm to 100 cm about 10 times.
On the way back, we returned in the powerboat through the darkness for 30 minutes, but it started to rain and it was quite cold and uncomfortable.
I think a tour that meets near the Sheraton would be easier and quicker.

その間10回位50cm~100cmのマンタが観られました
帰りはまたパワーボートで暗闇のなか30分かけて戻りますが、雨が降ってきてけっこう寒くて辛いです。
シェラトン近く集合のツアーの方が楽で短時間でいけると思います。

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

The most beautiful starry sky. 最高に美しい星空

Reviewed by: かめらっこ

The Mauna Kea summit tour is a must-do!!! This is my second trip to the Big Island of Hawaii, and I participated in a stargazing tour at the summit for the first time.

Not only is the beauty of the night sky breathtaking, but the sight of telescopes from around the world, including the Subaru Telescope, lined up in the red, barren landscape gives you the illusion of being in space.

However, there were some Japanese participants who did not follow proper etiquette. It seems that this land is very sacred to the people of the Big Island, so I hope everyone will respect the rules while participating.

マウナケア山頂ツアーは絶対に参加するべきです!!!
ハワイ島への旅行は今回が2回目で、初めて山頂での星空観測ツアーに参加しました。

星空の美しさもさることながら、すばる望遠鏡をはじめとする世界各国の望遠鏡群が赤土の無機質な空間に並ぶ風景は、まるで宇宙にいるかのような錯覚を覚えます。

ただ、一部の日本人でマナーを守れていない方がいらっしゃいました。ハワイ島の方々にとっては、とても神聖な土地のようですので、必ずマナーを守って参加いただきたいものです。

The guide is too funny! ガイドさんが面白すぎる

Reviewed by: みゆき

I was really anxious about getting altitude sickness, but along the way, our guide Matsuzaki kept us laughing with his entertaining talks, and I was able to go on with energy. The full moon made me wonder if I could see stars as beautifully as in Japan, but the sunset and the moon that felt within reach were indescribably beautiful. If I come to Hawaii Island again, I will definitely participate once more! It was truly wonderful. Thank you for the lovely time!

高山病になるのではと不安で仕方なかったですが、道中ガイドのマツザキさんが面白いトークでたくさん笑わせてくれて、元気に行ってこれました。満月で星は日本のきれいな場所で見れるかな?って程でしたが、夕日そして手が届きそうな月は、言葉で表せないほど美しかったです。ハワイ島に来たらまた必ず参加します!ホントに良かったです。素敵な時間をありがとうございました!

Hawaii Island is the best! ハワイ島、最高!

Reviewed by: あつママ

We participated with my sister in her 40s and her children (a 2nd grader and a 1st year high school student). It was our first stay on the Big Island of Hawaii, and we were anxious about our English skills, but thanks to the person who picked us up and our guide, we felt truly safe and enjoyed ourselves. They guided us with careful encouragement while cherishing Hawaii's nature and dolphins, ensuring that guests could fully enjoy snorkeling. My 7-year-old son, who was experiencing the ocean for the first time, jumped in with a wonderful smile without any fear. Even for me, a first-time snorkeler, I was able to relax without a floatation device thanks to the guide's suggestion, "Mom, you'll be fine without a float, you can do it," and I entrusted my children to them, allowing us to fully enjoy the beautiful world of dolphins. I am truly grateful for being able to share such a happy experience with my children! I will not forget the smiles of the staff and the ocean of Hawaii, and I definitely want to visit the Big Island again.

40代の姉妹と、その子ども(小2と高1)で参加しました。ハワイ島初滞在で英語も不安な私たちでしたが、迎えにきてくださった方やガイドさんのおかげで、本当に安心して楽しめました。ハワイの自然やイルカを大切にしながら、ゲストがシュノーケリングを満喫できるよう細やかなお声かけで誘導して下さいました。海が初めての7歳の息子も、全く怖がらず素晴らしい笑顔で飛び込んでいました。シュノーケリングが初めてのわたしも、ガイドさんの「ママは浮きなしでも大丈夫、いけるよ」の暗示(?)のおかげで(笑)リラックスして浮き具なしで、子どももお任せして、とても美しいイルカさんの世界を堪能できました。こんなハッピーな体験を子どもと一緒に楽しめたこと、心からありがとうございました!スタッフの方々の笑顔とハワイの海を忘れず、ぜひまたハワイ島を訪れたいです。

Great Time!

My husband and I had a wonderful time with Kevin! He made us feel safe and comfortable. We had an amazing time snorkeling and the cave was awesome. Would recommend this to anyone and would also do again when we go back to Hawaii!
