From the time we were picked up to when we were dropped off at our resort, we had a fantastic time on our tour with a awesome tour guide Shoyo. He was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot, and not just about Mauna Kea, the Observatories and stargazing but also about the Big Island and the area we drove through. This was a bucket list item for me and it did not disappoint in any way.
We went up to the visitors center for a half hour to acclimatize, then up summit (13,800 feet) and got our first taste of elevation. It is definitely a different experience! And it was surprisingly cold but they have cozy warm jackets to keep you comfy. The sunset is amazing as you are above the cloud line, which also makes for awesome photos!
Speaking of photos, our guide took some great ones of us, both on the summit during the sunset and of the stars, as well as amazing photos of the stars themselves. We were super lucky and got perfect weather and viewing conditions, not even any moon light to deal with.
The only thing that might surprise some is the amount of time you spend in the van driving back and forth and especially up to the summit. Totally worth it of course, and there was great commentary to make the time fly.

Most people do the sunrise, but I would have to argue the sunset tour lives up close to the the sunrise. The stargazing was amazingly clear on our tour! The guides know what to present and really give some awesome detail of the history of Haleakala. We had a 5 year old and she loved the experience of being so close to the night sky above. I would recommend dressing warm, for you may get hot when the sun is setting but won't regret it at night, it definitely gets cold up there!
Also, BRING FOOD. They are not lieing, it is a long night ahead of you and you will be definitely sad if you get hungry because not much is open once the tour is done.

Our tour guide was a few weeks into his job but it felt like he has been doing this for years. As we drove through the island we were shown some landmarks and famous peoples houses. Once we got to the trail he proved us ponchos which we would come to need. The trail was fantastic. Even in the rain it was our first activity when we arrived and well worth it. Highly recommend people take the time to enjoy the waterfall and see this.
Mahalo for joining us on your honeymoon! We hope the rest of your stay was as scenic and romantic for you two. Congratulations from all of us

We had a great time viewing the sunset with our amazing guides Kekoa and Travis. There are a lot of companies that run these tours, but our guides made this one the best of them all. They were both very knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. Most of all, however, Kekoa and Travis have big smiles and even bigger hearts. They brought the spirit of Mauna Kea and o'hana into this experience. The sunset from the summit was miraculous, the lasagna and brownie absolutely delicious and the star gazing was out of this world!

The tour was at an easy pace and covered the West side of the island concluding with spectacular views and vantage points of Waimea Canyon. Our driver Rosario was thorough with explanations, local trivia, and very personable to everyone. The pickup and drop offs from the hotels were punctual. The lunch was also good as were the local stops in Hanapepe and Waimea. Each stop including those of Waimea Canyon allowed for plenty of time to use the facilities, investigate the area, and take plenty of photos. The tour bus had plenty of space, and was air conditioned and comfortable. I would recommend this tour for any visitors to the Garden Isle!

This review is based on service, quality, abd cleanliness:
Service: the staff were super nice and knowledgeable. They showed real interest in thwir jobs, always asked to help with taking pictures.
Quality: tour quality was top notch. We got to do a nice little hike, saw different movie sets, and had lots of time to take pictures. It was a bumpy ride but fun
Cleanliness: restrooms are very clean. They were the big portable ones that get parked. In California one of those would be the most disgusting thing, you would rather hold it in. But here it was so clean and everything was well kept.
Overall: highly recommend this tour. I would suggest getting the all around tour though if you have the time

This was the most moving tour I've ever experienced in my life! Choosing the sunset instead of the sunrise was definitely the right decision! I was able to fully enjoy the calm sky without any wind. I learned so much about the wonders of the starry world, and it felt like my family and I absorbed energy from Maui's nature. The next morning, we were all surprised to feel as if our hearts had been cleansed. I truly felt the power of this spot, and Haleakalā is my number one place I want to return to in Hawaii! I am filled with gratitude for our professional guide. Thank you so much!
こんな感動するツアーは今までの人生で初めてでした!サンライズではなくサンセットにして大正解!!風もなく穏やかな空を満喫することができました。星の世界の素晴らしさもたっぷり教えていただき、マウイの自然の中でエネルギーを吸収することができたのか、翌朝、家族全員が心が洗われたような感覚を持っていて驚きました。パワースポットのすごさを実感でき、
ハワイでまた戻って来たいと思う場所No1はハレアカラです!

The experience at the ATV on the Hamakua Coast was well worth it. The ATV’s were well taken care of, safe, and fun to ride in. The views around the ranch were a mix of everything from ponds, to cattle, to the beautiful Hamakua coast. The best part about the experience was the tour guides. They kept the experience fun, treated us like family, and shared a wealth of Hawaiian knowledge. We highly recommend this ATV tour for anyone looking for a low stress, fun, and knowledge-filled tour on the Big Island.

Great Trail Ride. Bring dramamine if you’re prone to motion sickness. Wear long sleeves/rash guards, bring sun screen and if your shorter…you should sit in front. There’s two stops for switching also.
They plant a tree at one stop which I loved! Returning what as taken and they’re helping to conserving water while helping to preserve the land.
They also have a wash station for after your trip.
Bring a water bottle and sun screen!

When I jumped from the bright blue sea, my legs were shaking, but it was an amazing experience. At the moment of the jump, I could see the outline of the Earth and truly felt that the Earth is round. When reaching the highest altitude, my ears started to hurt, so it's best to do ear equalization carefully.
