Hawaii
I participated on April 28. The sea of clouds viewed from 4,000 meters high felt mysterious and beautiful, like a lake. I was moved by the clear sunset, but I was captivated by the starry sky. I was impressed by the lovely Saturn and the large moon that I was shown through a telescope. Next time, I want to go during a different season. The miso soup with the meal was warm and delicious!
4/28に参加しました。4000mの高さから見下ろす雲海は湖のような神秘さと美しさを感じられました。サンセットもはっきりとみられ感動しましたが、満天の星には見とれてしまいました。望遠鏡で見せてもらった可愛らしい土星、大きな月にも感銘を受けました。今度はまた今回と違う時期に行きたいと思います。食事の味噌汁温かくて美味しかった~
Dear Mr. Kimura,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. The sunset from a height greater than that of Mount Fuji is truly breathtaking, isn't it? Moreover, since you can drive up, there is hardly any concern about altitude sickness.
I'm glad to hear that the weather on the day of your tour was good, and you were able to see both the sunset and the stars beautifully. Please do reach out to us when you come again.
All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back. Thank you very much.

この度は弊社のツアーにご参加いただきまして、誠にありがとうございました。
富士山よりも高いところでのサンセットは圧巻ですよね。しかも車で登れてしまうので高山病の心配はほとんどありません。
木村様のご参加いただいたお日にちのツアーも天候もよく、夕陽も星もきれいに見られたようで何よりです。
きっとまた来られる際はお声おかけくださいね。
スタッフ一同心よりお待ちしております。
ありがとうございました。

Honestly, I had hoped to participate but was scared and considered backing out. However, after going to the site and talking with the staff, all my anxieties disappeared. The experience of free-falling from 14,000 feet was beyond words. My instructor and the cameraman were very friendly, and being able to dive together became a truly precious memory. (I ended up giving quite a generous tip.)
Participating in Japan would cost nearly double. Considering that you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of Oahu, I think it's a great deal for those who are thinking about trying diving.
For first-timers, it's definitely worth asking for photos and video recording.
正直参加希望は出したが怖くなって辞めようかとも考えていましたが、
現地に行ってスタッフと話をしてその不安も全て消え去りました。
結果14000フィートからの自由落下は言葉にならない経験でした。
私の担当したインストラクターとカメラマンもとても気さくで、
一緒のダイビングを出来たことも大変貴重な思い出ともなりました。
(結構チップも多めにわたしてしまいました)
日本で参加すると倍近く費用がかかります。
美しいオワフの景観を楽しむことも出来ることを考えると
ダイビングしてみたいと考えている人には
非常にお徳とも思います。
初めての方には写真とビデオ撮影はお願いしておいて損は無いです。
Sky Diving was easy the highlight of the trip, and Pacific made it easy and safe to do it.
The starry sky stretched as far as the eye could see!!! The guide's explanations were enjoyable, engaging everyone in the group. It was a wonderful time where the guide's desire for us to have fun matched our desire to enjoy. The warm clothing provided was great, and I was grateful for the hot drinks prepared at the summit.
This is definitely a recommended tour if you visit the Big Island.
I would love to participate again☆ Thank you~.
見渡す限りの星空!!!ガイドさんの説明も楽しく参加者みんなを巻き込みながら話をしてくれました。ガイドさんの楽しんでもらいたいの気持ちと参加者の楽しみたいの気持ちがマッチしたとっても素敵な時間になりました。防寒具もあったかく、山頂であったかい飲み物も用意してくれてありがたかったです。
ハワイ島に行ったなら絶対おすすめのツアーです。
私もまた参加したいです☆ありがとうございました~。
It was great. Had the best time. Dustin our guide was the best. Very informative and helpful. Would highly recommend....
This time, I was able to participate in the Mauna Kea Nature School, and I had a truly moving experience. The sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea was indeed breathtaking. Additionally, the stargazing afterward was wonderful. The temperature at the summit is very low, and this tour is the only one that provides rental cold-weather gear, showing the thoughtful consideration of the tour company.
今回、マサシネイチャースクールに参加出来、大変感動したひと時を過ごすことが出来ました。
やはりマウナケア山頂からのサンセットは感動します。
また、その後の星座鑑賞も素晴らしかったです。
山頂は気温が非常に低く、レンタル防寒着を上下貸して頂けるツアーは、こちらだけで、かゆい所に手の届く気遣いのあるツアー会社です。
At first, I hesitated to join the trip alone, but I'm really glad I did. The guide and the other participants were all very kind. It was truly moving to see stars that can only be viewed in the latest planetarium in such a realistic way. The stars visible change with the seasons, so I definitely want to repeat this experience.
当初は一人旅で参加するのは、躊躇われましたが参加してよかったです。
ガイドさんも他の参加者の皆さんもとてもよくしてくださいました。
最新のプラネタリウムでないと見られないような星がリアルに見られるなんて、本当に感動しました。
季節によって見られる星が違うので、また絶対リピートしたいです。
My wife found this trip online and thought it would be fun. Was she ever right about that. The bike ride was outstanding. The staff was great, making sure that everyone in the group was comfortable with the bikes and ready for the ride. It was an easy downhill trip, but the views were awesome. After the ride and some lunch we headed off to hike. This was my favorite part of the day. The trail was a bit tougher than I expected, but it was so worth it. Mattius, our guide, made the whole trip so much fun. Hiking through the rain forest to the waterfall was just beautiful. The trail through the bamboo forest was awesome as well. I can't recommend this trip highly enough. I will be spreading the word to all of my friends who plan to visit Oahu.
The whole adventure was awesome - from the fun guides - to the views and thrills of the zipline and back roads tour. Even the lunch was delicious.
Even though we went to the summit, there were clouds, and we couldn't see the sunset or the stars... The chance of not being able to see them was said to be 20%, so we were unlucky. If you can't see them, it seems you can participate next time just by paying for the lunch box.
I think the weather is just a matter of luck, but when I participated in the Mauna Kea summit tour on the Big Island of Hawaii, we were informed before departure that the weather might be bad and we might not be able to reach the summit, and they checked whether we wanted to participate or not, with some people choosing not to go. (We decided to go anyway, and in the end, we were able to see it.)
Since we are spending a precious day of our stay to go there, I wish they would cancel the tour if they knew in advance that we wouldn't be able to see anything.
頂上いっても雲があり、サンセットも星も見れず・・・
見れない確率は20%とのことで、運が悪かったです。
見れなかった場合は、次回はお弁当代だけで参加できるそうです。
お天気はその時の運でしょうがないとは思いますが、以前、ハワイ島のマウナケア山頂ツアーに参加した時は、出発前にもしかしたら天候悪くて山頂まで行けないかもしれないと言われ、参加するかどうか確認をとり、参加しない方もいました。(私達はそれでも参加して、結果、見ることができましたが)
貴重な滞在1日をかけて行くのですから、事前に見れないとわかっていたら、ツアー中止にしてもらいたいなと思いました。
We prepared a vegetarian meal for you. We apologize for not being able to show you a satisfactory sunset and starry sky due to the unfortunate weather. We check the weather every morning, but sometimes clouds roll in suddenly or it starts to rain. There was a chance to see it on the day, so we went up, but we are sorry that we couldn't meet your expectations. For such occasions, our company has a unique system that allows for a redo at any time. Since your time is valuable, we would appreciate it if you could consider a redo and decide on your participation date with some flexibility. We have noted the names of everyone who couldn't see it that day, so please feel free to reach out to us again.
お食事をベジタリアンでご用意させて頂いたお客様ですね。
あいにくの天候になり満足なサンセット、星空をお見せできなくて申し訳ありません。
天候は毎朝確認しているのですが、急に雲が入ってきたり雨が降って来たりすることがあります。
当日も見れるチャンスがありましたので、登ったのですがご期待にそえず残念です。
その時の為に自社は唯一リベンジがいつでも出来る仕組みになっております。皆様の貴重なお時間ですのでリベンジもご考慮して頂き、余裕を持って参加日を決めて頂くと助かります。見えなかった日の皆様の名前はお控えしておりますので、その時は是非またお申し付けくださいませ。
This time, I had my first horseback riding experience with my 7-year-old child. At first, both my child and I were nervous, but we quickly got used to it. The horses were very smart, and we thoroughly enjoyed the great outdoors; it was a truly valuable experience. The tour guide was very friendly, and they even took us to Leonard's, a place I had wanted to visit for a long time, and for lunch, we went to a garlic shrimp restaurant, which made me very satisfied. Next time, I would like my husband to join us as well.
今回7歳の子供と二人で乗馬を初体験しました。最初は子供も私も緊張しましたが、すぐに慣れて来て、お馬さんもとっても賢くて、大自然を満喫出来、とっても貴重な体験をさせて頂きました。ツアーガイドの方もとっても気さくな方で、以前から行きたかったレナーズのお店にも途中に寄っていただいたり、ランチにはガーリックシュリンプのお店に連れて行って頂いたり本当に大満足しました。今度は主人も一緒に参加させて頂きたいと思います。
We had an amazing experience that we couldn't have on our own. The stargazing was wonderful, thanks to the favorable weather, and the sunset was truly breathtaking. I would love to participate again when I come back to Hawaii. Thank you very much.
自分たちでは、体験できない素晴らしい感動をいただきました。星空の観測も天候に恵まれ素晴らしく、サンセットに至っては、大感動でした。又ハワイ島に来た時には、参加したいと思います。有難う御座いました。
It was my first experience with skydiving! There were staff members who spoke Japanese, so I was able to participate with peace of mind! The instructor couldn't speak Japanese, but he was cheerful and had a great vibe, making it a truly enjoyable time. The skydiving itself was more intense than I had imagined, but it was an incredibly impactful activity that is worth experiencing at least once. I'm glad I did it!
スカイダイビング初体験です!日本語対応のスタッフさんもおり、安心して参加することができました!インストラクターの方は日本語を話せませんでしたが、明るくてノリも良く、本当に楽しい時間を過ごせました。スカイダイビング自体は想像以上に強烈でしたが、一度は経験しても悪くはないインパクト抜群の最強アクティビティでした。やって良かったと思います!
It was scary, but I'm glad I did it!
怖かったーでもやって良かった!!
I'm not a big fan of group activities, but since it's difficult to visit Mauna Kea on your own, I decided to sign up despite it being a bit pricey. To conclude, my two middle school children said it was the most fun they had during our eight-day trip. I also enjoyed it, but I couldn't fully rejoice because I had some concerns about the cost-performance ratio (laughs). However, I was able to enjoy many unique landscapes, so that was great!
あまり団体行動は好きではないのですが、マウナケアは個人で行きづらいので、ちょっとお高いですが申し込んでみました。
結論から言いますと、中学生の子供二人が今回8日間の旅中一番楽しかったと申しております。私も楽しかったですがCPがちょっと・・・というのが頭にあり、手放しで喜べないかな(笑)。でも変わった風景が沢山楽しめたのでよかったです!
Nearly 14000 fts above sea level. You will able to see very beautiful sky!!! The tour guide has wonderful knowledge about stars positions. It's worth it.
We participated with our family at the end of March. My parents in their 70s also had a great time.
The explanations are all in English, but I was able to understand the main points. The horses are very well-trained and know what to do, so there were no issues.
It seems that this is the only place where you can experience galloping, and it was very exciting.
3月末に家族で参加しました。70代の両親も、楽しく参加しました。
説明は全部英語ですが、要点は理解できます。馬はとっても慣れていて、よく分っているので、問題ナシです。
ギャロップを体験できるのは、ココだけらしく、大興奮でした。
The information hinted that there would be opportunitie to swim in a pool with a natural waterfall but this did not happen. There was way too much time spent on safety training! Maybe groups could be separated into beginner vs. experienced to avoid this waste of time on the tour?
Every year when I go to the Big Island, I always visit Mauna Kea. No matter how many times I say it, I am always moved by the starry sky.
毎年ハワイ島に行ったら必ずマウナケアにはいきます。
何度言っても星空には感動します。
I had a truly valuable experience in nature. I definitely want to participate in this tour again.
大自然の中ですごく貴重な体験ができました。
また絶対参加したいツアーです。
It was my first challenge in life. The instructor taught us carefully, so even beginners can feel at ease. I was moved by the amazing view from the sky. It's definitely worth trying at least once. When I come back to Hawaii, I want to challenge myself again!
生まれて初めての挑戦でした。
インストラクターの方が丁寧に教えてくれるので、初心者でも安心してできます。空から見る景色のすごさに感動しました。一度は、やってみる価値はあります。
ハワイにまたくる時は、挑戦したいです!
We had the best time on this ATV ride! Saw some beautiful views and our guides were great. Very knowledgeable about the area, as well as very funny. Kept us entertained. My husband and I rented the side by side ATV because I had never ridden on one before and I am glad we did as we went through some muddy parts but was protected by the little side doors. Others on the single ATV's got a little muddy :). It was very bumpy so I wouldn't recommend it to people who have bad backs/necks or who get headaches easily. I also wouldn't recommend it to families with small kids. There were a couple on our tour and they seemed to get bored everytime we stopped so the guides could explain about the history of the land. Definitely worth the price of the tour and maybe next time we will do the all day tour. Highly recommend!
I wanted to see the birds on the Big Island, so I participated even though I don't understand English. There were about ten participants, and I felt a bit flustered during the introductions in the car. Everything was explained in English, but there was a participation agreement in Japanese, so I thought it would be nice to have some explanation notes in Japanese. Although I couldn't understand the language, I enjoyed myself thanks to the guide and the consideration of the other participants who wanted everyone to have a good time, and I was able to see the birds properly. I think it's a good idea for participants to know how to use binoculars and some basic English.
英語がわからないけど、ハワイ島の鳥をみたかったので参加しました。
参加者は10名程度で行きの車の中で各自の自己紹介があって焦りました。
説明とかもすべて英語ですが、参加誓約書は日本語のものがあったので日本語での説明メモがあったらいいなあと思いました。
言葉は理解できませんでしたが、楽しんでもらおうというガイドさんや他の参加者の方の気遣いで楽しめましたし、鳥もちゃんと見れました。
参加する方は双眼鏡の使い方と簡単な英語は知っておいた方がいいと思います。
Thank you for participating in the birdwatching tour. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed it.
The guide spoke in English, and many participants also spoke English, but we sincerely appreciate your feedback and will consider preparing Japanese explanation notes in the future.
Please join us again when you visit the Big Island!

この度はバードウォッチングツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
お楽しみいただけたようで大変嬉しく思っております。
ガイドは英語で、ご参加いただく方も英語を話す方が多いですが、お客様のご意見を真摯に受け止め今後日本語の説明メモの準備も検討させていただきます。
またハワイ島にいらっしゃる際はご参加ください!

It was wonderful to be able to ride a horse while gazing at the blue sea! ♪
青い海を眺めながら乗馬できたことがとてもよかったです♪
I don't think it's ever possible to drive up to 4000 meters. Fortunately, I was able to see both the sunset and the stars (it seems to depend on the weather). The cold is manageable since they lend you a jacket and pants, so there's no need to worry too much; regular clothes (long sleeves and long pants) are sufficient.
4000mまで車で行けることは一生ないと思います。夕日も星も運良くよく(天候によるようです)見えました。寒さもジャケットとズボンを貸してくれるので、特に心配することはなく、普段着(長袖・長ズボン)で十分です。
It's a tour that exceeds five stars.
サンセット+サンセット後の光+スターゲージング+人のこころ
Five starを越すツアーです。
Please come to see the sunset and starry sky that words cannot express. I look forward to our next meeting.
言葉では表せないサンセットと星空を見に来てくださいね。
またの再会を楽しみにしています。
The participants were all newlywed couples. At first, my husband and I, a couple in our forties, felt overwhelmed by the intense lovey-dovey atmosphere around us and regretted coming. However, once we saw the sunset from the mountaintop and the starry sky, those feelings faded away. The overwhelming nature was truly moving. It was that wonderful. The guide was also very interesting and passionate, which added to the experience.
参加者は新婚旅行のカップルばかりでした。なので、最初私たちアラフォー夫婦は周囲の激しいラブラブムードに押されてしまい、来たことを後悔しましたが、山頂からの夕日、そして満天の星空を観たらそんなことはどうでもよくなりました。圧倒的な自然は感動です。それくらい素晴らしかったです。ガイドさんがとても面白く熱い人だったのもよかったです。
My daughter participated because she wanted to ride a horse. It seems she was able to ride quite seriously, which is great.
娘が馬に乗りたくて参加しました。かなり本格的に乗ることができたようでよかったみたいです。
My husband and I went on the ranch tour in a Rhino. We had a great time and I recommend the Rhino for couples because it is so comfortable and you can take pictures while on the move where you cannot on the other machines. The guides were awesome and fun; really great people. I would definately do this again!
I participated in the 2-hour buggy course. First, we watched a Japanese explanation video to understand the risks, and then a staff member who spoke a little Japanese explained how to ride before we set off. The steering was heavier than driving a regular car, and driving on narrow roads was a bit scary, but I gradually got used to it and had a lot of fun riding smoothly. I joined the course that started at 3:30 PM, but it got a little dark in the evening, so the morning session might be better to fully enjoy the natural greenery. Still, this tour, where you can ride a vehicle that is hard to experience in Japan, racing through the great outdoors, is something unique to overseas. I would like to participate again.
バギー2時間コースに参加しました。
最初に日本語の説明ビデオでリスクを確認、その後、日本語が少し話せるスタッフが乗り方を説明してくれて、すぐに出発です。通常の車の運転よりもハンドルが重くて、狭い道の運転は少し怖かったのですが、徐々に慣れて、スイスイ乗ることができて楽しかったです。午後15:30からのコースに参加したのですが、夕方は少しうす暗くなってしまって、自然の緑を堪能するためには、午前中の回がよいかもしれません。それでも、日本ではなかなか乗ることができない乗り物を大自然の中を駆け抜けるこのツアーは海外ならではです。また参加したいと思います。
Thank you for visiting.
The control of the buggy feels a bit heavy until you get used to it.
However, it is definitely an experience that you can't easily have in Japan, so I recommend it!
We look forward to your next visit.
ご来場有難うございました。
バギーのコントロールは慣れるまで少し重い感じがしますね。
でも、確かに日本ではなかなか出来ない体験ですので、お勧めです!
またのご来場をお待ちしております。
