Hawaii
Every year, I participate alone whenever I go to Hawaii. This time, I was thrilled to find that the instructor was the same person as last year. It's easy to join whether with friends or alone.
毎年、ハワイに行くたびに一人で参加しています。
今回はなんと、インストラクターが去年と一緒の人で大盛り上がりしました。
友人とでも一人でも参加しやすいです。
The guide, Mr. Yamapi, was truly a wonderful person full of love. He was talkative and had a wealth of knowledge, which made my heart warm while listening to him. As part of the tour plan, we enjoyed Krispy Kreme donuts and coffee, and we also stopped by a supermarket where I could choose my favorite sushi for dinner. The stargazing experience included a romantic touch, making it an unforgettable tour with high added value. I highly recommend this tour as the number one choice for anyone visiting Maui.
ガイドの山ピーさんがとにかく愛に溢れた方で素晴らしい。お話好きで知識量も多く、話をしていて、また話を聞いていて心が温かくなった。ツアーのプランに含まれているとのことで、クリスピードーナツとコーヒーをいただいたり、スーパーに寄って自分の好きな寿司(夕食)を選ばせていただいたり。星空観測ではロマンチックな演出もあり、付加価値の高い忘れられないツアーとなった。マウイ島に行かれる方には是非おすすめしたいツアーNO.1。
Unfortunately, the summit was closed due to snow, so we had to give up on the sunset. However, we descended a bit and found a spot without clouds, where we were able to see the most amazing starry sky. This was all thanks to our fantastic guide. He helped us find the location and provided detailed explanations about the Orion constellation, the Andromeda Nebula, and various other constellations using a telescope. I owe a big thanks to JIN OTAKA from your group’s nature school and his great partner. Thank you!
I accidentally forgot to give a tip, so I called your company and arranged to leave it at the hotel front desk for Jin to pick up later, which relieved me. It would have been too regrettable not to do so after such a fun guiding experience. I highly recommend everyone to take advantage of this service!
残念だったのは山頂が雪でクローズでしたので夕日は断念。
すこし下山して雲がない場所を探していただき最高な星空を観ることができました。これには最高のガイドさんおかげでした。場所を探し望遠鏡でオリオン星座、アンドロメダ星雲いろいろな星座の説明など詳しく解説をしてもらいました。貴社グループのマサシのネイチャースクールのJIN OTAKAさんと友達の名コンビのおかげでした。ありがとう!
うっかりしてチップを渡し忘れてしまったので御社に電話をしてホテルの
フロントに預けて仁さんにあとで取りに来てもらうようにしてホッとしました。そうしなくては申し訳ないぐらい楽しいガイドぶりでした。
皆さんも是非利用されるといいですよー。
The instructor was kind, and the American jokes were funny.
I was disappointed that I couldn't go up to 4000 meters.
インストラクターの人も優しくアメリカンジョークが面白かったです。
4000メートルまでいいけなかったのが残念でし
た。
The zipline in nature was refreshing. Kualoa Ranch is often used as a movie filming location, and on the way to the zipline, it felt like a location tour, which was a nice bonus.
大自然でのジップラインは
気持ちよかったです。
クアロア牧場は、映画ロケ地でよく使われており、ジップライン場所へ行くまで、ロケ地ツアーみたいになってて得した気分です。
The weather was bad, so I couldn't do it on the scheduled day, but I was glad that I received a message and was able to smoothly reschedule for the next day! It was my first time skydiving, and I was a bit scared, but the instructor was very friendly and approachable, which made it a fun experience! If I have the chance again, I would like to ask Pacific Skydiving for help!!!
天気が悪く予定の日にはできなかったのですが、連絡が来てスムーズに次の日に予約をできたので良かったです!
はじめてのスカイダイビングで怖さがありましたがインストラクターの方がとても気さくでフレンドリーだったので楽しくできました!
また機会があったらパシフィックスカイダイビングさんにお願いしたいです!!!
The owners were very informative, having both grown up in Waipio. The tour takes you along their property and a small portion of private property outside of public access areas. It was great to learn so much info about Waipio! The owners have the answers to all your questions and have great stories to share about their time there. In terms of scenery, the only thing I wish was that the horseback tour took you to see more than just their taro farm below and the small patch we traveled by horseback. Overall the interactions with the owners make this a great choice for your horseback tour! They are as authentic as you can get to the Waipio, Hawaiian culture!
I wanted to surprise someone with skydiving, but our schedules didn't match, so we went with this instead. There wasn't the thrill of twisting and turning, but it seemed just right since my companion felt some fear. It really made me realize how vast Hawaii is, and seeing Hawaii from above was exceptional!
スカイダイビングをサプライズプレゼントしたかったのですが予定があわずこちらにしました。蛇行したりのスリル感はなかったですが同行者は怖さも感じていたようなのでちょうどよかったみたいです。こんなにもハワイって大きいんだと感じさせられるほどじっくり周遊してくださって上から見るハワイも格別でした!
Personally, this was my third time at the summit of Mauna Kea, after visiting 20 years ago and 8 years ago. The experience was similar, including hotel pickup and a break at the Onizuka Visitor Center. However, this time, the guide, Big JIN, was entertaining, making the sunset and stargazing enjoyable. Although it was said to feel like -20 degrees, the rental cold-weather gear provided was perfect. Additionally, there was a unique service for this tour where they later shared photos taken against the backdrop of the sunset at the summit and stunning starry sky photos that are difficult for travelers to capture online. If you're in Hawaii, the Mauna Kea summit sunset and stargazing is an absolute must. Highly recommended!
個人的には20年前、8年前、そして今回の3度目のマウナケア山頂でした。
ホテルピックアップから途中のオニズカ・ビジターセンターの休憩など内容は一緒でした。ただ今回は日本人(ビッグJINさん)のガイドが面白くて楽しくサンセット・星空観察が出来ました。体感温度ー20度と言われましたがレンタルしてくれる防寒着も完ぺきでした。また多分このツアー独自のサービスでしょうが山頂の夕日バックの写真や旅行者では撮りにくい満天の星空写真を後日ネットで配信するなどのサービスがついていました。
ハワイ島なら絶対外せないマウナケア山頂サンセット&星空観測。おススメです。
The sunset from Haleakalā Mountain and the star-filled night sky were absolutely amazing. The guide's explanations were very detailed, and the places we stopped by on the way were also ones I wanted to visit, so I was very satisfied.
ハレアカラ山からのサンセット、夜空いっぱいの星はもちろん最高でしたし、ガイドの方の説明もとても詳しく、また行くまでに寄ってくださるところも、行ってみたいところだったので大満足です。
I had been thinking about flying, and I finally did it! It was truly a breathtaking view, but at first, I was just filled with fear, so be careful, okay? LOL
But once I was in the air, it felt amazing! Oh! If you wear glasses, be careful because they might fly off and get lost. I was so worried about that halfway through that I couldn't enjoy the scenery at all! LOL
But I held on tight, so it was okay in the end! LOL
飛ぼう飛ぼうとは思っていましたがついにやりました!まさに絶景って初めは恐怖しかないので注意してくださいねww
でも飛んだら気持ちいいです!あ!眼鏡の方は気を付けてくださいぶっ飛んでどっかいってしまいそうになって途中から気が気じゃなかったので景色全然見れませんでしたww
ちゃんとおさえたので大丈夫でしたけどねww
The ride in van to the valley, then back to the top were outstanding as well as horseback ride. Guide was a great driver on the narrow treacherous roads. Horseback ride wonderful, guides informative, horses gentle. Great instructions given on how to "drive" a horse. I've never felt so comfortable on a horse before. Mine was Holoholo, a handsome palamino. He had personality and would nip ar other horses. I could identify with him. I have personality as well. Scenery beautifal. I loved the ride so much that I went back for a second ride a week later.Also saw many wild horses too.
.I would recommend this activity to anyone and everyone.
This time, I only booked the horseback riding course, but I thought it would be more efficient to add another activity. I believe a 2-hour horseback riding tour would be fine.
今回は乗馬コースのみの予約でしたが、もう1つのアクティビティをつけた方が時間を有効活用できると思いました。2時間の乗馬ツアーなら問題ないと思います。
Due to the wind speed, I couldn't reach the summit, but I really enjoyed the sunset and the clear view of the stars that the guide showed us. I participated alone, but the guide was very considerate, and the other participants were also very kind, which made it enjoyable until the end! Thank you very much! I now have the goal of reaching the summit next time.
風速の関係で山頂に登ることはできませんでしたが、サンセットや、星がしっかり見える位置を案内してくれたのでとても楽しめました^ ^そして、1人で参加しましたが、ガイドさんも気にかけてくれたり、参加されてるお客様もとても優しく、最後まで楽しめました!
ありがとうございました^ ^
次は山頂に行くという目標までもできました。
I think it's an experience everyone should have at least once in their life. Initially, I was scheduled to jump from 2,100 meters, but I ended up experiencing a free fall from 4,200 meters for over 60 seconds. It was the best experience ever!!
人生に一度は体験した方がいいと思います。最初は2,100メートルからの予定でしたが、4,200メートルから60秒以上のフリーフォールを体験しました。最高の体験でした!!
Ultimately, we couldn't reach the summit of the mountain and had to stop at the Onizuka Center. Like others have shared in their experiences, I understand that it's a natural occurrence, but the $15 refund is simply too inadequate. If it had been a bit more, it would have eased my feelings. Additionally, my elderly mother was exhausted from being in the car for such a long time.
If the refund policy doesn't change or if there are no suggestions for leaving midway, I cannot recommend this to others.
There were other tour participants who mentioned they had to make a second attempt after not being able to go up the day before, and they felt like they wasted two days.
The only enjoyable part was listening to Mr. Jin, who guided the tour, share his knowledge in the car. He was very knowledgeable and spoke in detail about flowers, history, and volcanoes.
Aside from that, to be honest, nothing about this experience is worth the price. I just want to inform those who will participate in the future that not being able to go up is a disaster!
結果的に山の山頂まではいけず、オニズカセンターで
ストップとなりました。
他の方の体験談同様、自然のことなので仕方のないことだとは
思いますが15ドルという返金内容はあまりにもお粗末すぎます。
もう少し多ければ気持ちも軽減されたと思いますが、
長い間車に乗車して高齢の母を疲れさせてしまいました。
このまま返金内容が変わらないようだったり、途中離脱の
提案もないようですと他の方にはオススメできません。
他のツアー参加者には前日のぼれなくて再アタックだった方も
いたようで2日間を棒に振ったと仰っていました。
ツアーを案内してくださった仁さんのお話を車の中で聞けた
ことだけはとても楽しかったです。
とても博識な方で花や歴史、火山について詳しくお話してください
ました。
それ以外はハッキリいって何も値段と見合っていません。
これから参加される方にものぼれないと悲惨!
ということだけお知らせしておきます。。。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We sincerely apologize that the experience did not meet your expectations on the day of the tour.
Mauna Kea, at an elevation of 4,200 meters, is even higher than Mount Fuji, and the weather can change in an instant. Therefore, please understand that the conditions on the day were unpredictable, as we are dealing with the forces of nature. We regret that the refund amount also did not meet your satisfaction, but please know that our local guides are working hard to ensure that everyone enjoys the experience, even in the unpredictable environment of nature.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback.

この度は、ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
当日はご満足いただける内容となりませんでしたこと、心よりお詫び申し上げます。
マウナケアは標高4200mと富士山よりもさらに高い山となり、一瞬にして天候が変化しますため、
残念ながら当日の状況も予測がほぼ不可能な大自然を相手にするツアーとなりますことご了承ください。
ご返金額も ご満足いただけない結果となってしまいましたが、予測が困難な大自然のツアーでありつつも、
皆様に楽しんでいただけますよう現地ガイドもご案内に努めております。
貴重なご投稿を賜りまして、誠にありがとうございました。

Must do island activity. The guides were awesome and a lot of fun.
Overall, it was amazing!!!
We gathered at 4:30 AM and headed towards the North Shore by bus. On the way, we watched a video about how to fly, and once we arrived, we signed a consent form. Since the explanation was in English, it's best to pay close attention.
They will ask if you want to have a handheld camera or a photographer, but both options cost over $100. If you don't say you don't want either at the beginning, you'll have to buy one after you jump.
The diving itself was fantastic. All the instructors were handsome, and it was a lot of fun.
総じて最高でした!!!
朝4時半集合
バスでノースショアの海の方に向かいました。
行きのバスで飛び方講座のビデオをみて
着いたら同意書にサインをします。
英語での説明なので聞き落とさないように
した方がいいです。
ハンディカメラかカメラマンをつけるか聞かれますが
どちらもオプションで100ドル以上かかるものです。
どちらもいりませんと最初に言わないと
飛んだ後に必ず買わなければならないです。
ダイビング自体は最高です。
インストラクターがみんなイケメンで
とても楽しかったです。
It was amazing! The instructor was unique, and the service was thrilling! I will definitely do it again when I go to Hawaii! I highly recommend it to everyone!
最高でした!
インストラクターさんユニークでサービス、スリル満点でした!
ハワイに行った時はまた絶対にやります!
皆さんにもぜひおすすめです!
Everything was great. The instructors made it fun by their sense of humor, but you could tell that they also always had safety in mind. Felt safe at all times.
I was afraid that we would be hiking up a huge mountain or something because the description states you will do a lot of walking, however they take you up the mountain in a van. The only walking that you do is front platform to platform, which isn't much. So we were glad for that.
The views from the ziplines of the ocean were amazing. Would recommend for all.
What a wonderful tour to drive to the summit higher than Mount Fuji and observe the sunset and starry sky! Experienced staff will take you close to the summit of Mauna Kea while helping you acclimatize to the altitude to avoid altitude sickness. You can also see the Subaru Telescope at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan in Hawaii up close, enjoying the sunset and taking photos in the clear air.
To avoid any issues with astronomical observation, you will descend from the summit within 30 minutes of sunset and stop at a suitable location for stargazing and photography of constellations. The low light pollution allows you to see many stars. This is undoubtedly a unique tour that I highly recommend for the Big Island.
There are regular restroom breaks on the way to the summit, and there are portable toilets at the summit. While some may have reservations about using portable toilets, a little patience is necessary. On the day I went, there was no wind and it wasn't too cold, but at an altitude of over 4200 meters, your body can get cold after a long stay, so I recommend bringing a compact down jacket and a hat.
Since only 200 people can reach the summit in a day, it's a good idea to make your tour reservation early.
富士山より高い山頂へ車で行き夕日と星空観測、なんとステキなツアーでしょう♪
慣れたスタッフが高山病にならないよう高度に順応させながらお客様をマウナケアの山頂近くへ連れて行ってくれます。
そして日本の誇る国立天文台ハワイ観測所すばる望遠鏡も間近に望み、澄んだ空気の中を沈んでゆく太陽を眺め写真撮影。
天文観測の障害とならないよう日没から30分以内に山頂を降り途中の星空観測に適した場所で星座の観測と写真撮影をしてくれます。
チリが少ない環境はとても多くの星を見ることが出来ます。
ハワイ島ならではのツアーであることは間違いなく是非お勧めします。
山頂に行くまでもこまめにトイレタイムが設けられ、山頂には簡易トイレが設置されています。簡易トイレは抵抗のある人もいるかと思いますが、そこはちょっと我慢も必要です。
行った日は風も無くそれほどの冷え込みでは無いとのことでしたが、やはり高度4200m超えると長時間の滞在は体が冷えてきますので、自分でもコンパクトにしまえるダウンや帽子等用意される事をお勧めします。
1日に200人までしか登頂できないとのこと、早めのツアー予約も心掛けると良いかと思います。
It was my first horseback riding experience, and I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind! I hardly speak any English, but the horses were well-trained, making it easy to ride. I had a lot of fun.
初めての乗馬体験でしたが、安心して体験できました!
英語もほとんど話さないのですが、馬も良く教育されており簡単に乗馬することができました。
とても楽しかったです。
When I got home and tried to look at the data sent to my computer, I found that I couldn't save it to view. I contacted them to ask them to send the data to my mobile by attaching my mobile address since I couldn't view it via email forwarding, but they never sent it at all. It feels like I just threw away the money I spent on the data... I'm shocked.
I think it would be better to burn the data on-site and hand it over in situations like this.
帰ってパソコンに送られてきたデーターを見ようと思ったら保存して見ることが出来ません。メール転送で、見れないので携帯のアドレスを添付して携帯にデーターを送って下さいと連絡したのですが、全く送ってくることなくデーター購入したお金が捨てたのと同じで…ショックです。
こういう事もあるので、その場でデーターを焼いて渡すとかした方が良いと思います。
The view from the summit was amazing, but above all, Mr. Yamapi's guidance was the best. It was our honeymoon, and we were able to see the most beautiful starry sky while listening to his wonderful stories, creating memories that will last a lifetime. We will definitely go again, so please continue this tour! Thank you!
山頂での景色はもちろん、なにより山Pさんのガイドが最高でした。
新婚旅行でしたが、素敵なお話のなかで最高のほしぞらをみられて、一生の思い出になりました。また絶対に行くので、このツアーはずっと続けていってください!お願いします!
At Kualoa Ranch, there were various activities, but I had a great time experiencing the four-wheeler buggy for a full two hours, which seems like something you can only do in Hawaii! It went faster than I expected, and at first, I was scared, but once I got used to it, it was really fun!! I could have probably ridden for another hour (^_^) I want to go again!
クアロアランチでは色々なアクティビティがありましたが、ハワイでしかできなさそうな四輪バギーを2時間たっぷり体験しました!思った以上にスピードが出て、初めは怖かったのですが、慣れれてくると本当に楽しい!!あと1時間くらい乗れたかも(^_^)また行きたいです!
will be back again to skydive.. the team were really awesome they treat me very well and made my day awesome..
This was by far the best day of our week. The kids loved it! The kayak trip on the river was amazing, nice and relaxing, beautiful scenery. Advice- have one experienced kayak-er for the 2 person kayak. The hike through the forest was so cool, it was exactly what we had imagined. We were filled with history and information along our hike which was really inviting! Once we got to the falls, delightful! Although the water was cold, it was the neatest things we had experienced! The lunch, the surroundings, the tour guide, all amazing! Don't second guess, Just do it!!!
We participated in a 2-hour horseback riding course as a family of four. It was everyone's first time riding a horse, but thanks to the thorough video explanation and the kind guide, we quickly got used to it. I think the horses were all calm and obedient.
The tour allowed us to climb narrow mountain paths that can't be accessed by buggies, jeeps, or buses, so we were able to fully enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful scenery. I highly recommend the horseback riding course!
2時間の乗馬コースに家族4名で参加しました。
馬に乗るのは全員初めてでしたが、丁寧なビデオの説明と、親切なガイドの方のおかげですぐに慣れました。馬もおとなしい従順な馬ばっかりだったと思います。
ツアーでは、バギーやジープ、バスなどで入れない細い山道を登れるので、静かな雰囲気で良い景色を充分楽しむことが出来ました。乗馬コース、おすすめします!
This was my second time skydiving, and Hawaii's skydiving is the best! If you have the time, you should definitely do it!
スカイダイビング2回目でしたがやはりハワイのスカイダイビング最高です!時間に余裕があればやった方がいいです\(^o^)/
We upgraded to the 14k sky dive and it was COMPLETELY worth it... staff is so friendly and the VELTRA tours charges the same price. Do yourself a favor and at least get a go pro video.
