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

You can climb a mountain higher than Mount Fuji in one go. 富士山より高い山を一気に登れる

Reviewed by: SATOKOKU

Climbing Mount Fuji on your own feet is... but this tour allows you to ascend quickly in a four-wheel drive vehicle. The scenery is like another world. The stargazing lecture while watching the stars is also an experience you can't easily have.

富士山を自分の足で登るのは、、、でも、このツアーは4輪駆動車で一気に登れます。
景色も、別世界。星を眺めての星講座も、なかなか体験できないもの。

クライムワークス・ケアナファーム ジップライン体験(3時間) オアフ島最長800メートルのラインでノースショアの大自然と絶景を満喫<7本>

It was good. よかったです

Reviewed by: KNK

It was our first experience, and we didn't understand any English at all. We didn't know what was going on at the reception, but they showed us how to operate in Japanese, so we managed to check in somehow! We didn't understand the explanations at all, but we made it through. The staff were kind and friendly! There are no lockers, so it's best to go with minimal luggage! The drive was actually about 30 minutes. But it was fun! I want to participate again!

The buggy ride was not difficult and was fun. For her, it seemed just right to do the one-hour course since she doesn't have much strength! It was raining, and we had to go by rental car, so it was a bit of a hassle?!

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

It was moving!! 感動!!

Reviewed by: こんこん

I participated in the long-awaited sunset tour to celebrate my birthday on my honeymoon. The view was absolutely stunning!

First of all, the guide was incredibly kind. During the pick-up, they eased my nerves with small talk, and even though I was a bit anxious about my first trip to Hawaii, I felt the warmth of Japanese hospitality and was able to enjoy myself with peace of mind.

There were also five other people in our group, along with another couple, and thanks to the cheerful group, the ride was lively! At the summit, we took pictures together and exchanged travel tips, and it was great to be with such wonderful people.

We experienced some mild altitude sickness symptoms like headaches and tingling, but the breathtaking view at the summit overwhelmed us and made us forget all about it! The vast sea of clouds, the red volcanic land, and the bright red sunset were all sights that I believe cannot be experienced in Japan.

During the stargazing, I saw shooting stars three times! The guide's explanations with the laser pointer were easy to understand, and the stars that can’t be seen in Japan, along with the craters of the moon viewed through the telescope, were truly beautiful.

They even took photos for us for free, and I think it's a great deal that this is included in the tour price! Since it was my birthday, having everyone sing Happy Birthday under the starry sky is a memory I will cherish for a lifetime! Thank you so much!

新婚旅行で、自分の誕生日記念に念願のサンセットツアーに参加しました。もう、最高の景色でした!
まずガイドの方がとっても優しかったです。迎えの時も世間話で和ませてくださり、初めてのハワイにドキドキしていましたが日本のホスピタリティーを感じ安心して楽しめました(^-^)
他に5人のグループの方とカップルさんが一緒で、陽気なグループの方々のお陰で賑やかな車中となりました!山頂では一緒に写真を撮ったり旅の情報交換をしたりととてもいい方々と一緒で良かったです。
私達は頭痛やしびれなど軽い高山病のような症状がありましたが、山頂の壮大な景色に圧倒されそんなのを吹き飛ばすほどの絶景に感動しました!!広がる雲海、赤い火山大地、真っ赤な夕焼け。どれも日本では味わうことの出来ない景色だと思います。
星空観察では流れ星を3回見れました!レーザーポインターでのガイドさんの説明も分かりやすく、日本では見ることの出来ない星や、望遠鏡で見た月のクレーターは本当に美しかったです。
無料で写真も撮って下さり、これがツアー代金に含まれているなんてとってもお得だと思います!
誕生日ということもあり、星空の下、皆さんからハッピーバースデーを歌ってもらったことは一生の思い出です!ありがとうございました!

ワイピオ渓谷 乗馬ツアー 絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

Even elementary school students can do it!! 小学生でも大丈夫!!

Reviewed by: yoshikunland

Drive from Hilton Waikoloa to the location.
Make sure to familiarize yourself with the route using Google Maps or similar services.
There is a shopping center at a midpoint where you can take a restroom break.
If you don’t get lost, you can arrive in about an hour.

It's okay if you can't speak English.
The only time you’ll need to communicate is when learning how to ride the horse, so gestures and simple phrases should be sufficient. (If you have some English skills, you might be spoken to during the ride or in the vehicle...)

The horses move slowly in a single file along well-maintained mountain paths.
They do not enter grassy areas or dense forests, so your clothes won’t get too dirty.
The order of the horses is determined by their rank within the group you ride with, so companions will likely be scattered.

As a note for riding, be careful when the horse drinks water or eats grass, as the reins may suddenly pull downwards.
Other than that, the horses are well-trained, and even elementary school students (3rd and 4th grade) managed just fine.

It seems that the kids enjoyed horseback riding more than shopping in Honolulu!

ヒルトンワイコロアからレンタカーで現地へ。
地図はグーグルマップなどでよく予習して行きましょう。
中間地点位にトイレ休憩出来るショッピングセンターがあります。
迷わなければ1時間位で到着できます。

英語は、出来なくても大丈夫。
会話が必要なのは、馬の乗り方を教わる時だけなので、ジェスチャーと片言で理解は出来るかと思います。(ある程度英語が出来ると、移動車内や乗馬時に話しかけられますが・・)

馬は、整備された山道をゆっくりと1列になって進みます。
草むらや密林には入らないので、心配するほど衣服も汚れません。
馬の順番は、乗った馬の群れの中での順位で決まるので、同行者はほぼバラバラになります。

乗馬時の注意事項としては、馬が水を飲んだり草を食べたりする時、手綱が急に下向きに引っ張られるので気をつけて下さい。
それ以外はよく訓練されているので、小学生(4年・3年)でも余裕でした。

やはり子供は、ホノルルで買い物よりも乗馬が楽しかったようです!。

3-Hour Hana Rainforest Tour with Waterfall Swim & Easy Nature Walk - Hike Maui

Not a great experience

Reviewed by: Unhappy

First, once Veltra sells you something, they're done with you until they start pestering you for a review. The actual excursion was by Hike Hawaii. On the day of our trip, they called me at 6:30 AM to tell me that the kayak portion of our trip was cancelled due to high winds. We hadn't scheduled a kayak portion. So they called me at 6:30 AM because they don't have their crap together enough to know what their customers have signed up for. The excursion was basically a brief stroll through the woods, with a little fruit, a bottle of water, and a cookie provided. After paying hundreds of dollars for two of us, they actually cut the trip short and we got back 15 minutes ahead of schedule.

After that, Veltra has the nerve to send you email saying that they're expecting you're review. Not asking for one, just telling you how much they're looking forward to seeing it. There's no opt-out link for this, which I think actually violates certain standards. You have to jump through hoops to have your account removed, even though you never asked for an account to be set up in the first place.

They're pushy, presumptuous, and overpriced.

This review will never be seen because Veltra basically reserves the right to remove anything negative in their terms of use.

Warm Aloha,

Thank you very much for taking the time to write your valuable feedback on your recent experience with us. We work very closely with our activity partners to make sure that our clients are well cared for.

Unfortunately, your original requested date was not available for the short waterfall walk but in an effort to accommodate your request, Hike Maui offered to upgrade you to include optional kayaking and a complimentary lunch. Due to weather, the kayak portion was cancelled and although your lunch was packed, it did not make it to you on the trail. We accept complete responsibility for this mishap and would like to make it up to you with a full refund.

Your Hawaii experience is very important to us and we are sorry that the tour and process of booking did not meet your expectations, please accept our sincerest apologies.

Mahalo Nui Loa,

VELTRA Customer Support

Last summer, three generations participated: my parents, my husband and I, and our daughter (9 years old). Even after six months, looking at the photos we took together brings back emotions and fills me with warmth. My parents were also very happy.
Yamapi was a kind and knowledgeable guide, truly wonderful. I could feel his desire to make everyone who participated happy.

Even after returning to the hotel, we were so excited that we couldn't fall asleep right away, including our daughter.
This is the best memory from our trip to Maui.

昨年の夏、両親、私達夫婦と娘(9歳)の三世代で参加しました。半年たっても、皆で撮った写真を見ると感動がよみがえり、あたたかい気持ちになります。両親も喜んでいました。

First horseback riding experience with the family. 家族で初体験乗馬

Reviewed by: えりざべーこ

The weather was great, and it took about an hour by rental car from Honolulu. They guided us on time for our 10:30 reservation. The horses were very well-behaved, and at first, I was worried about what would happen if they wandered off, but the guide assigned to our group skillfully led the horses, so there was no need to worry at all! The horses walked slowly, and we were completely satisfied after an hour of enjoying the mountains, sea, and forest. I gained a good understanding of the difficulty of riding. They also took photos of us riding, which were a bit pricey at $15, but I ended up buying them for the family as a keepsake. It was a very enjoyable experience. The hamburgers were delicious too!

天気にも恵まれ、ホノルルからレンタカーで約1時間。10時半からの予約で時間通りに案内してくれました。
お馬さん達はとってもお利口で、勝手にどこかに行ったらどうするんだろうと最初は不安でしたが、一グループに一人つく船頭の方が馬達を上手に導き全く心配なし!
お馬さんたちは、ゆっくりと歩き、山、海、森林を見ながら1時間で十分に満足でした。
乗馬で走ることの難しさが十分に理解できました。
乗馬した写真も撮ってくれていて、15$と高めでしたが、やはり記念にと家族分買ってしまいました。
とても楽しい体験でした。ハンバーガーも美味しかったですよ。

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

"Moved by the beautiful sunset and starry sky!" 「素敵な夕日と星空に感動!」

Reviewed by: risa

I participated in this during my honeymoon.
About five years ago, I fell in love with stargazing after seeing countless starry skies in Japan. I learned that the summit of Mauna Kea is known as "the closest place to space," and I had always wanted to go to the Big Island for my honeymoon.

During the drive to the Onizuka Visitor Center, the guide's stories were so interesting that I didn't sleep at all and kept laughing the whole time. I also learned a lot about the history of the Big Island and the animals that inhabit the mountain. Before I knew it, we arrived at the Onizuka Visitor Center and had an early dinner. The bento came with miso soup, and it was very delicious. I could feel the love in the guide's homemade miso soup.

After a break, we finally headed to the summit of Mauna Kea. From the car on the way up, I could already see the sea of clouds, and my excitement was building. I love starry skies, but I also love sunsets just as much, so it was thrilling for me to see the sea of clouds for the first time.

Upon arriving at the summit, I was greeted by a breathtaking view of the sea of clouds. The sun was setting, and the colors of the clouds were gradually changing; it was truly beautiful. The guide took many photos with our camera, so we ended up with lots of wonderful shots. Thank you!

After the sun set, we moved to the stargazing area. Unfortunately, the day of our visit was the day after the full moon, so the countless stars I had imagined were not as visible, and the sky wasn't as clear as I had hoped. I knew the moon would have an effect, but since this is the closest place to space, I had gotten my hopes up a bit too much. However, thanks to the moon, I was able to see a beautiful moon through the guide's telescope, and I was very happy to have captured it with my camera.
I was very satisfied to see the wonderful sea of clouds, sunset, moon, and starry sky. I would love to participate in a sunset or sunrise tour again someday to see the new moon's starry sky! Thank you!!!!!!!!

新婚旅行で参加しました。
5年程前に日本で無数の星空を見てから、天体観測にはまりました。
マウナケア山頂が「宇宙に最も近い場所」だと知り、新婚旅行でハワイ島へ行きたいとずっと思っていました。

オニヅカビジターセンターまでの行きの車内では、ガイドさんの話が面白くて、一睡もする事なく、ずっと笑っていました。
また、ハワイ島の歴史や山に生息する動物の説明など色々と勉強になりました。
気づいたら、オニヅカビジターセンターに着き、早めの夕食。お弁当はお味噌汁も付いていて、とても美味しかったです。
ガイドさんの手作りお味噌汁の愛情を感じました。

休憩後、いよいよマウナケア山頂へ。山頂へ行く車内から既に雲海が見え、テンションが上がっていました。
星空も好きですが、同じくらい夕日も好きなので、実際に雲海を見た事がなかった私にとって、とても興奮しました。

山頂到着後、見渡す限りの雲海。夕日が沈んでおり、雲海の色が徐々に変化していき、本当に綺麗でした。
ガイドさんが私達持参のカメラで何枚も写真を取ってくれたので、素敵なショットがいっぱい取れてました。ありがとうございます!

夕日も沈み、星空観賞エリアへ移動。ちょうど参加日が満月の次の日だったので、イメージしていた無数の星が散りばめられ、澄んだ星空ではなかったのが少し残念でした。月の影響があるのはわかってて参加したのですが、宇宙に最も近い場所なので、もう少し見えるかなぁと期待を膨らませ過ぎてしまいました。
ただ、月のお陰でガイドさんの天体望遠鏡から、とても綺麗な月を見る事ができ、月をレンズ越しに持参のカメラで撮って頂けた事がとても嬉しかったです。
素敵な雲海と夕日・月と星空を見れて、とても満足でした。
いつか新月の星空を見に、サンセットかサンライズツアーにまた参加したいです!
ありがとうございました!!!!!

A time to feel the grandeur of nature! 壮大な自然を感じられる時間!

Reviewed by: natsuko

One of the reasons I decided to go to the Big Island was my desire to see the starry sky at Mauna Kea, so I was really looking forward to it. After participating, it was just as wonderful as I had hoped.

After being picked up at the hotel, we headed to the Onizuka Visitor Center in a 12-passenger van. It was enjoyable to hear our guide, Mr. Yamamoto, talk about the plants and animals that inhabit the Big Island, and we even encountered wild sheep and cows.

Upon arriving at the Onizuka Visitor Center, we took a break with a bento box and miso soup. Although it was an early dinner before sunset, the bento was luxurious, like a catered meal, and I was very satisfied.

Since the van was full, it felt cramped after putting on the borrowed warm clothing. However, once we reached the summit, the temperature was lower than I had imagined, and the warm clothing was much appreciated.

The observatory and the sea of clouds illuminated by the sunset at the summit were breathtaking! The sunset disappearing into the sea of clouds was nothing short of magical. After it got dark, I was able to gaze up at the starry sky, and it was incredibly moving. I was blessed with good weather and timing, and the starry sky without the moon was overwhelming. In the distance, I could faintly see the red glow of the Kilauea crater… I was able to feel the grandeur of nature.

It became a truly wonderful memory. Thank you very much!

バンは満席だったため、借りた防寒着を着て着ぶくれた後の車中は狭く感じました。ただ、山頂に上がってみると想像以上に気温は低く、防寒着はありがたかったです。

山頂で夕日に照らされる天文台や雲海は圧巻!
雲海に消えていく夕日は幻想的の一言に尽きます。
暗くなってからは、満天の星空を見上げることができて、とても感動しました。好天やタイミングに恵まれ、月がない星空の星明りに感無量。
遠くには、キラウェアの火口の赤い光もうっすら…!自然の壮大さを感じることができました。

大変いい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました!

☆Moving☆ ☆感動☆

Reviewed by: ひろちゃん

Since it was my first time on the Big Island of Hawaii, I definitely wanted to see the sunset and the starry sky, so I found this tour and signed up immediately. During the drive, the guide shared various stories about the Big Island, and we arrived in no time. At the Onizuka Visitor Center, we enjoyed a bento box and miso soup. It was a bit disappointing that the miso soup was cold, but I was still happy to have it♪

As we headed to the summit, they provided us with warm clothing, including hats and gloves, so we could enjoy the sunset and the starry sky without feeling cold. The moment I got out of the car and saw so many stars that I had never seen before, I was truly moved! We took some photos, but the starry sky was so breathtaking that it couldn't be captured in pictures. I tried to imprint the view in my memory for as long as time allowed. I was so touched that I could have watched it forever!

On the Big Island, we visited various spots like Kilauea Volcano and Hapuna Beach, but the sunset and starry sky at Mauna Kea were the most impressive and became my favorite memory. So, if you go to the Big Island, I highly recommend participating in this tour! It's truly amazing☆

初めてのハワイ島だったので、絶対にサンセットと星空は見たいと思っていたところ、このツアーを見つけて即申込みました。
行きの車の中ではガイドさんがハワイ島の色々な話をしてくれてあっという間に到着しました。オニヅカビジターセンターではお弁当とみそ汁をいただきました。みそ汁が冷めていたのが少し残念でしたが、みそ汁は嬉しかったです♪
山頂に向かい、防寒具も帽子や手袋まで貸していただけたので寒さを感じずにサンセットから星空を観賞できました。車から降りて今まで見たことのないたくさんの星を見た瞬間、本当に感動しました!写真も撮っていただきましたが、写真では伝わらないほどの星空で時間が許す限り星空を目に焼きつけました。時間があればずっと見ていたいくらい本当に感動しました!
ハワイ島ではキラウェア火山やハプナビーチと色々なスポットに行きましたが、マウナケアのサンセットと星空が何よりも感動し、一番の思い出になりました。なので、ハワイ島に行ったらぜひ参加してみてください!本当にオススメです☆

絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

Absolutely satisfied with the skydiving! 大満足のスカイダイビング!

Reviewed by: ryo

It was a beautiful view as we flew with the sunrise. There were a few clouds, but it was worth waking up early. When we took off, we went one after another, so there was no time to be scared. Instead of feeling fear due to the height, it was more about the beauty, and I didn't feel scared at all. The instructors were friendly and made me feel at ease.

日の出と共に飛んで、すごくキレイな景色でした。
少し雲はかかってましたが、朝早くから起きたかいがありました。
飛び出す時は次々と出て行くので怖がってる間もなく、あまりの高で怖いというより綺麗で恐怖は感じませんでした。インストラクターの人たちも気さくで安心できました。

ラナイ島観光ツアー ラナイ島行きフェリー往復チケット付き<英語ガイド/半日/ マアラエア港発>

A new discovery! 新しい発見!

Reviewed by: kaz

I visited Lanai Island for the first time. I went without any prior research, but the guide, who spoke only English, chose very easy-to-understand words to explain, allowing me to learn about the history and present of Lanai Island. I encourage you to challenge yourself with English conversation practice. Bruce will respond politely, even if he looks a bit troubled.

初めてラナイ島に行きました。どんなところか下調べもせず行ったのですが、英語のみのガイドさんもとても解りやすい単語を選んで説明してくれて、ラナイ島の歴史と今を観光できました。英会話の練習のつもりでチャレンジしてみてください。ブルースが困り顔ながら丁寧に返事をしてくれますよ。

Starry sky 満天の星空

Reviewed by: さなぴー

The day I participated was the day before the new moon, so there was no moonlight, allowing us to see a truly spectacular starry sky. It was great to see the long-lived stars that you can't see in Japan. The explanation of the constellations was fun and entertaining, as they used a laser pointer to illustrate them. I would like to join the sunrise tour next time.

参加した日は新月の前日ということで月あかりもなくまさに降るような星空を見ることが出きました。日本では見ることのできない長寿の星も見れたのは良かったです。
星座の説明もレーザーポインターを使いながら面白おかしく説明してくれるので楽しかったです。次回は朝日のツアーに参加したいです。

An unforgettable sunset and starry sky. 忘れられないサンセットと星空

Reviewed by: Hutch Takayama

The beauty of the orange sunset sinking into the white sea of clouds left me with a thrilling emotion, as the hazy view cleared up refreshingly in the thin air. Despite the strong light of the waning moon, I was captivated by the amusing and lively chatter of the guide, who shared stories about the faintly visible Milky Way and various constellations. I forgot the cold, and my childlike spirit was revived. It was a wonderful trip.

白い雲海に沈む夕陽のオレンジの美しさは、薄い空気でぼうっとしていた視界が一気に晴れた爽やかさと共に、心が震える感動を残してくれました。
下弦の月の強い光にも負けず、うっすらと見えた天の川や数々の星座にまつわる物語を語るガイドの方の可笑しく軽快なおしゃべりに聞き入ると、寒さも忘れて、童心が蘇って来ました。
良い旅になりました。

Mahalo マハロ

Reviewed by: まぼろしハワイ

I participated in both the sunrise and sunset tours. I thought I might be a bit greedy, but it turned out to be the right decision. We were blessed with good weather and enjoyed the wonderful scenery. While it's common for the sun to rise and set, I was surprisingly moved to the point of almost tears, realizing how extraordinary something so ordinary can be.

I remembered a line from a picture book I read as a child: "The sun is always watching over you." It felt as if the sun was truly saying that to me. When the sun rises, it feels like it's saying, "Alright, go on your new adventure today," filling me with excitement and energy for the day ahead. When it sets, it feels like it's saying, "That's enough for today. This is good," allowing me to acknowledge both the good and the bad of the day with a gentle heart.

I've encountered views that made me feel small before, but this was the first time I felt that while also gaining the strength to strive harder. I felt empowered to do my best.

The reason I felt this way wasn't just because the scenery was amazing, but also because our guide, who truly loves the Big Island, treated us so well. Thanks to the guide's charm, my memories of Mauna Kea became truly wonderful. I hope that many more people will come to appreciate the beauty of the Big Island. Thank you very much.

サンライズとサンセット両方のツアーに参加しました。少し欲張りすぎかなと思いましたが、欲張って正解でした。お天気にも恵まれ素晴らしい景色を堪能しました。太陽が登り沈むことは当たりのことだけれど、当たり前のことがこんなに素晴らしいものかと、不思議と涙が出そうなほど感動しました。
「おてんとうさまはどんな時もあなたを見ているのよ。」子供の時に読んだ絵本の台詞を思い出し、本当におてんとうさまにそんな風に言われた気がしました。
太陽が登る時は、「さあ今日も新しい冒険に行ってらっしゃい」と言われているようで、これから始まる1日にわくわくするような活力が湧いてきて、
沈む時は、「今日はここまで。これでよし。」と言われているようで、その日1日の良かったところも悪かったところも認めてあげることができるような優しい気持ちになりました。

自分がちっぽけに思える景色は他にも出会ったことがありますが、自分を小さく感じるのと同時に、もっと頑張れる。頑張るんだ。と思える力が湧いてきたのは初めてです。

こんな風に感じられたのは、ただ景色が素晴らしかったからではなく、ハワイ島が大好きというガイドさんが本当に良くして下さったということもあると思います。ガイドさんの魅力も手伝って、マウナケアの思い出がとても素晴らしいものになりました。
これからもたくさんの人にハワイ島の魅力が伝わることを願っています。
本当にありがとうございました。

It was moving!! 感動!!

Reviewed by: おとうさん

We were blessed with great weather and hardly any wind, making it a wonderful day. The journey to the Onizuka Visitor Center was enjoyable, as we stopped by lava plateaus and learned about various plants and creatures. I gained a lot of valuable knowledge that I wouldn't have known just by driving a rental car myself. The bento and miso soup were even more delicious than I expected. Although it was cold during the stargazing, I was very grateful for the warm tea and cookies provided by the staff. We were able to see shooting stars multiple times, which was truly moving. Honestly, I thought the price was high, but I'm really glad I participated.
