We came to the Hawaiian Islands to celebrate our Honeymoon, and this was 1 of the excursions we had planned. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint! We had such a fun time, having the movie sites pointed out along the way to base camp. The 3 instructors that took us through the course were amazing, very attentive, asking questions about each of us, congratulating us and thanking us for coming. It did start raining 2 zip lines in, but wasn’t that bad. They kept the entire experience fun and full of entertainment. 100% recommend!

It's quite a distance and a bit difficult to get to, but I made a reservation with transportation included, so I was able to go with peace of mind. At the site, the explanations were in English, so I didn't understand anything at all, but I managed to get by with the atmosphere. The activity was fantastic, and the weather was great!

I was picked up at my hotel around 2:00 PM and was able to see the sunset and the starry sky. I was worried about the weather since it was raining in Kona in the morning, but the summit was clear with no clouds, and the view was very beautiful. We stopped at several observatories along the way, and I was able to take a lot of photos. I appreciated that our Japanese guide, SHOYO, came along and provided support in Japanese at times. I highly recommend this tour!
お昼の14:00前ごろに宿泊先のホテルでピックアップしていただき、夕日と星空を見ることができました。
朝のコナは雨が降っていたので天候を心配していましたが、山頂は雲ひとつなく晴れていてとてもきれいな景色でした。

日本人のガイドのSHOYOさんが来てくださり、ところどこ日本語でフォローしてくださったのもありがたかったです。

The summit was around 8°C and very cold, so while you can borrow warm clothing, it might be reassuring to have a little of your own as well.

This is a great tour to see sights that you wouldn't otherwise get to see on your visit to the Big Island. We rode through the forest and on the coastline, getting to see amazing views. The tour guides, Nato and Henry, were amazing and had so much knowledge about Kohala and Hawaiian history. This tour educated us on other areas that we ended up going to visit during our trip.

I couldn't believe that there was a zip line in Kapolei, where I usually go shopping, and I was skeptical at first, but it turned out there was one. I discovered this valley! I had a wonderful experience utilizing the height difference. I was in a team with an American family with a 4-year-old, and we had a great time. The highlight was the thoughtfulness of the young instructor. From the simple speaker attached to our bodies, Japanese music played when we were challenging ourselves, and American music played when the American family was up. I was so impressed by such careful consideration. It was a great value and an absolutely fantastic experience.

It's a refreshing activity! You drive yourself and glide through vast areas. We had eight vehicles lined up, with one guide watching over every three. I felt safe driving. The guide was great at keeping everyone excited and was always smiling! Although the guidance was in English, I managed to keep up. Additionally, before the ride, they play a video in Japanese to explain everything, so those who are not confident in English will be fine. I highly recommend giving it a try!

The guide who accompanied us on the horseback riding took a photo of me on the horse, but when I looked back later, for some reason, none of the photos were taken, and it's a shame that I don't have any pictures from the ride.

It was the best experience.
The tour was conducted entirely in English, but our guide James also mixed in some Japanese for casual conversation and explanations.
The tour started with a pickup at the Target parking lot at 1 PM, and from there, we headed to the Mauna Kea Onizuka Visitor Center in about 2 to 3 hours. After a restroom break, we finally made our way to the summit. Along the way, we stopped at the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) for some photo opportunities. We arrived at the summit before 6 PM, took some time to explore, and waited for the sunset around 6:30 PM. The view above the sea of clouds was truly magnificent during this time.
At 6:30 PM, the sunset was unobstructed and absolutely beautiful. The cirrus clouds were artistic, and I was glad to have participated.
We boarded the van before 7 PM to descend and stopped for about an hour to stargaze. We were able to see the Milky Way and the Summer Triangle. The explanation about the stars was helpful, and it was easy to see since there were no lights on the mountain.
After that, we descended in the van, took a restroom break at the Onizuka Visitor Center, returned to Kona, and disbanded at our respective drop-off locations around 10 PM.
As a solo traveler, I honestly debated between the Kilauea Volcano + stargazing tour due to financial and time considerations. However, I thought that the opportunity to see the sunset from the summit is something rare even in Japan, so I chose this tour, and it was definitely the right decision. (By the way, I visited Kilauea Volcano by car the next day.)
As a side note, the BLT sandwich was surprisingly delicious. I would love to have it again.
This tour became a valuable experience. Thank you, James.
最高の体験でした。
ツアー自体は英語オンリーでしたが、ガイドのJamesが、日本語も織り交ぜて雑談や説明をしてくれました。
ツアーとしては、13時にTarget(スーパーマーケット)の駐車場でピックアップがあり、そこから2,3時間ほどで、まずはマウナケア山のオニヅカ・ビジター・センターへ。お手洗休憩などを済ませ、いよいよ山頂へ。途中で、The Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA)などに立ち寄り、各自での写真撮影タイムもありました。山頂には18時前に到着し、しばらく散策し、18時半ごろの日の入りを待ちました。この間も雲海上の景色は本当に素晴らしかったです。
いよいよ18時半、日の入りは遮るものが何もなく、本当に綺麗でした。鱗雲も芸術的で、参加して良かったと思いました。
19時前にバンに乗り込み下山し、途中で1時間ほど星空観測をしました。天の川や夏の大三角も見れました。星空の解説もあり助かりました。山の途中で明かりがなかったのでよく見えました。
その後、バンで下山し、途中でオニヅカオニヅカ・ビジター・センターでお手洗休憩を済ませ、コナに戻り、22時頃に各自の解散場所にて解散という形です。
一人旅であり、正直、金銭面、時間面で、キラウエア火山+星空のツアーと迷いました。ただ、山頂で夕陽を見る機会なんて日本でも滅多に無いことだと思い、こちらを選びましたが、やはり正解でした。(なお、キラウエア火山には翌日車で行きました。)
余談ですが、BLTサンドイッチはビックリするほど美味しかったです。また食べたいと思いましました。

山頂付近は夏でも結構寒い(9月で7℃でした)ので、貸し出しはありますが、防寒着は持って行った方が良いです(ヒートテック+ワイシャツでは不十分でした)。
