All Reviews for Sightseeing / Guided Tours

I participated in this tour based on the experiences of others. On the day of the tour, the mountains visible from the hotel were covered in clouds, and I thought we wouldn't see any great views. The guide was very cheerful and confidently said that the summit would be clear, but as we gained altitude, it became cloudier, and we encountered a downpour like a tropical rainstorm. Even at the dinner location, the Onizuka Visitor Center, it was still raining, so I thought this was going to be a bust.

However, as we started to climb to the summit, the skies began to clear, and near the observatory, it turned into a beautiful clear sky, allowing us to see a wonderful sunset. (Sorry for doubting you, guide!) After that, we did some stargazing a little further down, and the guide explained using a laser pointer, but there were a few too many clouds, which was a bit disappointing. However, the explanations were very easy to understand, even for someone like me who isn't familiar with constellations, so I learned a lot.

We also had photos taken, and they are available for download, so there's no worry if you miss a shot. Additionally, at the Onizuka Visitor Center, I captured a rare "SILVER SWORD" on camera. I appreciate the guide for making the journey enjoyable with engaging stories. Thank you very much.

他の方の体験談を参考に今回のツアーに参加しました。
当日ホテルから見える山は雲がかかっており絶景は無理かと思っていました。
ガイドさんは非常に明るく、絶対山頂は晴れていると自信満々でしたが、高度が上がるごとに曇りだし、途中スコールのような雨が降り、夕食場所のオニズカビジターセンターでも雨が降っていたので、これはダメかと思っていました。
しかし、そこから山頂に登りだすとだんだん晴れ間が見えてきて、天文台付近では快晴になり、素晴らしいサンセットを見ることができました。（ガイドさん疑ってゴメンなさい。）
その後少し下った場所で星空観測を行い、レーザーポインタを使った説明をしてくれたのですが、雲が少し多かったのでちょっとだけ残念です。しかし、星座に疎い私にもわかりやすく説明してくれたので、非常に勉強になりました。
写真も撮っていただき、ダウンロードもできるので、撮り損じても安心です。
また、オニズカビジターセンターでは珍しい「SILVER SWORD」をカメラに収めました。
道中飽きないように一生懸命楽しい話をしていただいたガイドさん感謝しております。
ありがとうございました。

Toa was a great guide. He was very enjoyable to listen to. Enjoyed the day.

Great food, great entertainment, so much fun! Highly recommend! So romantic and even better with the fireworks. So happy I did this for my husband and I.

We encountered a whale right after departing! I was surprised to see it so close to the shore. It wasn't exactly "right in front of us," but while enjoying the view of the sea from Honolulu and taking a leisurely cruise, we occasionally heard announcements from the captain. When we looked in the direction of the announcements, there was a whale! We had a wonderful time.

出港してすぐにクジラと遭遇！
あんなに岸から近くに居るなんてびっくりでした。
決して「目の前で！」って訳ではありませんが、
ホノルルの海からの景色を楽しみながら、
ゆっくりしたクルーズを楽しみつつ、
時々船長のアナウンスが入って、
アナウンスのあった方向を見ると、クジラが！
楽しい時間を過ごせました。

Since I was going during whale season, I made a last-minute reservation on a day when I had free time. I was worried because I heard that people who went two days prior didn't see any whales, but we saw plenty! When a whale appeared, they made it easy to understand by indicating the direction using the hands of a clock. We got to see whales swimming and jumping energetically, and I'm really glad I made the reservation. During the trip, we enjoyed views of Oahu from the sea, experiencing scenery that we usually can't see. We could depart leisurely in the morning, and even without breakfast included, we had plenty of fun on the water. I definitely want to participate again next year.

せっかくクジラの時期に行くのだからと予定が空いている日に直前の予約を入れました。
2日前にホエールウォッチングに参加した人は、見られなかったと聞いていたので、心配していましたが、たくさん見られました！
クジラが現れると分かりやすく、時計の針に例えて方角を教えてくれました。
泳いでいるクジラも、元気に跳ぶクジラも見れ、本当に予約してよかったと思います。
移動中は海からオアフを眺められ、普段見ることのできない風景を楽しみました。
朝はゆっくり出発できますし、海の上を楽しむために、朝食は付けなくても十分楽しめます。
来年もぜひ参加したいです。

On the morning of March 10th, I went with breakfast included. It was a buffet-style meal, and I thought I would take a little bit of everything like in Japan, but there was only one type of bread, one type of muffin, white rice, scrambled eggs, sausages, and cereal (laughs). The American in front of me piled the same food high on their plate, and I thought, "If you put that much on, you can't add more!" but it seems that was the right approach (laughs). I don't eat a lot in the morning, so it was fine, but I couldn't help but laugh at the limited variety ((´∀｀*)).

As for the main event, the whale just kept blowing water and showing its back a little, and I didn't even get to see the sea turtles that you always spot when you're out at sea... it left me feeling a bit disappointed. However, the view of Honolulu from the ocean was great ( ◠‿◠ ).

３月１０日午前中、朝食付きで行ってきました。
ブュッフェタイプの食事で、日本のつもりでちょっとずつ色々取ろう！と思ったら。パン一種、マフィン一種、白米、スクランブルエッグ、ウィンナー、シリアルだけでした(笑)私の前のアメリカ人が同じものを山盛りお皿に盛り、あんなに入れたら数乗せられないじゃない？と見てたけどアレが正解だった模様(笑)朝からモリモリは食べないから良いんだけど、種類の少なさに笑っちゃいました((´∀｀*))
メインの鯨は潮吹きと背中チラ見せを繰り返すだけで、海に出ると必ず見かけるウミガメも見れずう〜〜ん・・・な不発気分でした。海からのホノルルの眺めは良かったですよ( ◠‿◠ )

The weather on the day was decent. The day before, I had seen whales from the balcony of the Hilton Hawaiian Village, so I boarded the shuttle bus with high expectations.
We took a family photo when we boarded the boat (they will come around later to sell it for $20).
Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales, but the family was satisfied to see Diamond Head, which can't be seen from Waikiki Beach. The breakfast was also decent.

当日の天気はまずまず。前日にヒルトンハワイアンビレッジのホテルのバルコニーから、クジラが見えたことから『昨日見れたから期待大！』という気持ちで迎えのバスに乗り込みました。
船に乗船すふ時に家族で写真を撮ってもらいました。（後で20ドルで売りに来ます。）
結局、残念ながらクジラは見れませんでしたが、ワイキキビーチから見れないダイヤモンドヘッドを見れて家族は満足してくれました。朝食もまずまずの内容でした。

I went on the cruise when my parents visited from Japan in mid-February, but we didn't see any whales. However, when I went again with my husband at the beginning of March, they appeared frequently. So, is the probability 50%? I heard that the chances are better around February to March. Also, whales tend to be less active in the morning.

I debated whether to include breakfast or not, but since it was just a 2-hour early bird cruise, it didn't have a luxurious atmosphere, and breakfast wasn't necessary (I'm not sure if that's good or bad, but quite a few people brought snacks and drinks). The view from Waikiki to Diamond Head is fantastic. Therefore, my parents were quite satisfied even though they didn't see any whales. The kids seemed to get bored, which was a bit unfortunate.

I think it's best to consider the primary purpose of the cruise as enjoying the scenery, and if you happen to see whales, that's just a bonus.

2月半ばに両親が日本から遊びに来た時に乗りましたが、鯨は現れず、再乗船券をもらって3月頭に夫と乗ったときにはバンバン現れました。ですので確率は50%？
確率の高さとしては2月～3月頃が良いと聞きました。
あと朝は鯨があまり活動しないとか。。

朝食付きか無しで悩みましたが、たったの2時間のアーリーバードなので豪華クルーズという雰囲気もあまりなく、朝食無しで十分でした（良いのか悪いのか分かりませんが、結構みなさん、スナックや飲み物を持ち込んでいました）。ワイキキからダイアモンドヘッドにかけても眺めは素晴らしいです。ですので、両親も鯨が見れなくてもけっこう満足していました。お子さんたちは飽きてしまってかわいそうでしたけれど。
単に船に乗って景色が見れるのを第一目的として、鯨が見れたらめっけもん程度に考えて乗られたらよいと思います。

I participated with my mother. The local guide provided deep insights into Hawaii's history and current social issues, which was very informative. Since the guide recommended some great shops on the North Shore in advance, I think we made effective use of our time, even though lunch was within an hour. We went horseback riding for nearly an hour along the beach, and the scenery was beautiful, plus the horses were adorable, so we were very satisfied. There were quite a few elderly people as well, so I believe horseback riding is accessible regardless of age.

母と2人で参加しました。現地のガイドの方はハワイの歴史や現在の社会問題などとても深く切り込んでお話してくださり、とてもためになりました。
ノースショアのオススメのお店を予めガイドさんに教えて頂いたので、ランチは1時間以内でしたが、時間を有効活用できたと思います。
乗馬は1時間近く海辺を散歩したのですが、景色もよく馬も可愛いので大満足でした。高齢の方も結構いらっしゃったので、年齢に関係なく乗馬できると思います。

I was able to see whales about four times, and it was really exciting!

However, since the captain's greetings and everything were in English, I was quite nervous (laughs). I think it would have been even more enjoyable if I could properly understand English. The food seemed delicious, but I couldn't handle the smell, so I couldn't participate in the cultural experience (^^;;)

クジラは4回くらい見ることができて、すごく盛り上がりました！

が、船長さんの挨拶や諸々が全て英語だったので、、結構緊張しました（笑）
ちゃんと英語がヒアリングできたらもっと楽しかっただろうなと思いました。
ご飯は美味しかったみたいですが、私は匂いがダメで・・文化体験も萎縮してしまって参加できませんでした(^^;;)

The rain and wind were strong, and unfortunately, the weather was not good. The captain announced that a whale had been spotted, but I couldn't see it at all. It's unfortunate, but there's nothing that can be done.

雨風共に強く、あいにくのお天気でした。キャプテンはクジラを発見したと放送がありましたが、まったくわかりませんでした。仕方ありませんが残念でした。

We come to this Luau every year! We have a timeshare so this year was our 7th time to the big island and the 4th time to this show. We tried shows in other places but came back to this one because the food is the best, the setting is right on the water, and the show is most entertaining. Everyone makes it fun from the host who takes tickets and encourages a lei purchase, the photographer, the announcer for the show, the musicians, the artists who go through many costume changes and the wait staff. We recommend this show to anyone who asks. Thank you all for your committed and talented time. See you next year!

Great time. Wonderful staff; very friendly and professional.

I decided to take this trip to the Big Island after seeing a photo of the sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea. Since I was with my mother, who is over 60, I was worried about altitude sickness, but the guide was fun and kind, so there were no problems at all. The sunset from the summit was truly beautiful and moving.

During the stargazing session, the guide used a laser pointer to explain the stars and constellations in detail, which was very educational. We were also able to see the glow of the Kilauea volcano from the stargazing location, which was another breathtaking experience.

It was a nice service that they took many photos and allowed us to download them for free, and I appreciated that they kindly taught us how to set up our own cameras to take beautiful pictures. Knowing that I could download the photos later allowed me to enjoy the stunning views at my own pace, even if I couldn't capture them perfectly with my own camera.

In addition to the incredible scenery, the guide and the other tour participants were all very pleasant, which truly filled my heart with joy.

It was great to see both the stars and the moon during this half moon phase, but if you're hoping for a sky full of stars, I recommend participating during the new moon, as everyone suggests.

マウナケア山頂からの夕日の写真を見て、今回のハワイ島の旅行を決めました。
還暦過ぎている母と一緒だったので、高山病なども心配でしたが
ガイドの方が楽しく親切にしていただいたので全く問題ありませんでした。
山頂からの夕日は本当に美しく、感動しました。
その後の星空観測ではレーザーポインターを使って詳しく星や星座の説明をしてくださって
とても勉強になりました。
また星空観測の地からキラウエア火山の炎もうっすら見ることができ、こちらも感動しました。
写真もたくさん撮っていただき、ダウンロードも無料でさせていただけるのもうれしいサービスですし、自分のカメラでもきれいに撮れる設定を親切に教えてくださったこともありがたかったです。自分のカメラでうまく取れなくても、後でダウンロードできると思えばゆっくりと自分の目で絶景を楽しむことができました。
絶景tに加え・ガイドさんや一緒になったツアー参加者の方たちも大変気持ちの良い方ばかりで
本当に心が満たされました。

今回は半月で星と月が一緒に見れたのも良かったのですが、満点の星を期待するなら皆さんがおっしゃるように新月の時に参加されることをお勧めします。

I planned a trip to Hawaii during this season because I wanted to see whales. Believing that we would meet them, eight of us joined this option! We set off with excitement. However, the result was… disappointing. But still, I was gazing at the vast ocean the whole time on board, and it was a very pleasant cruise. We were lucky to have good weather. On the ship, my companion tried making a lei and got a lovely hair accessory. During lunch, while waiting in line, one of my companions got seasick, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication. We could also see the hotels in Waikiki from the sea, making it a fun cruise. Thank you to the crew!

クジラさんが見たくて、この時期にハワイへ行く計画を立てました。クジラに会えると信じて、8名でこのオプションに参加！ルンルンで出発です。でも、結果は…残念でした。でもでも、私は乗船中、ずっと大海原を眺めていたのですが、とても気持ちの良いクルーズができました。天気に恵まれたのはラッキーでした。船内では、ツレがレイ作りに挑戦し、素敵な髪飾りをゲットしていました。ランチは順番を立って待っている時、船酔いしたツレもいたので、酔い止めをお勧めします。ワイキキのホテル群も海側から見られ、楽しいクルーズになりました。クルーさんたち、ありがとうございました。

We enjoyed this cruise. There are activities besides whale watching (lei making, ukulele lessons and hula lessons). We saw whales and dolphins. This is great for all ages.

I enjoyed the sea cave and the snorkel. Our guide took great measures to ensure our safety while snorkeling. We had a small tour with only 4 people.

If I had known the shuttle bus route, I wouldn't have used it. I can't believe it took an hour...

The air conditioning was too strong, and I got cold.

The breakfast was so bad and disappointing that I was speechless...

In bad weather, I strained my eyes on the deck for an hour, but the whales didn't show up; all I could see were small boats...

The worst part was that someone who got seasick had vomited, and it was left unattended for a long time...

I woke up early to go, but...

I would have been better off sleeping at the hotel. It was disappointing...

送迎バスのルートを知っていたら使いませんでした。まさか1時間もかかるとは、、
クーラーの効きすぎで身体が冷えました。

朝食もまずくてショボすぎて絶句…

悪天候の中デッキで目を凝らすこと1時間、、くじらはあらわれず、見えるのは小型ボートのみ、、

最悪なのは船酔いされた方が嘔吐したものが長時間放置されていたこと、、

せっかく早起きして行ったのに・・

これならホテルで寝てれば良かったです。残念でした、、

My wife and I had a very nice time on the cruise. We decided to do the stake and all you can eat crab legs. The food was good and our waiter was very funny. The only thing we didn't like too much was the crowdedness. My wife is claustrophobic, so she didn't like that the tables were very close together. Other then that being our one complaint, this is a cruise worth doing. The sunset is beautiful!

Was awesome! Will most likely do this again for the 3rd time :) crab dinner was unlimited was nice

In February, known as the rainy season, I participated in my first whale watching cruise. After doing some research, I found that larger boats tend to sway less, which is reassuring for those prone to seasickness, so I signed up for this one. Since I am prone to motion sickness, I made sure to have a hearty breakfast before boarding, opting for a simple plan without breakfast.

On the day of the cruise, there was an unexpected heavy rain that surprised even the locals, but since there was no cancellation notice, we headed to the meeting point. However, after being taken to the port by bus, the tour guide strangely walked at the back of the line, leaving those of us at the front unsure of where to go in the rain. Once on board, no one provided any guidance (or any explanation at all), which led to people mistakenly going to the wrong deck or stopping confused near the entrance. Even after entering the ship, breakfast began without any proper explanation, so those on the no-breakfast plan were probably eating on their own.

I felt a bit nauseous from the smell of food around me, so I went out to the deck to look at the sea as soon as we set sail. Just listening to the announcements from the naturalist was enjoyable. The sea was quite rough with whitecaps, and even when the captain and naturalist announced they spotted a whale, it was honestly difficult for amateurs like us to see. If the weather had been clear and the sea calm, it might have been easier to spot them. It was disappointing, but since the weather and whale appearances are left to chance, I’ve come to accept it. Now I have a reason to try again someday.

However, I can't help but feel that if the care before and after boarding had been a bit more thorough, my overall satisfaction would have been much higher, leaving me with a sense of regret.

雨季と言われる2月、初めてのホエールウォッチングクルーズに参加しました。
色々と調べた結果、酔いやすい人は大きな船の方が揺れが少なくて安心、と見たのでこちらに申し込みました。酔いやすいので朝ごはんもしっかり食べてから乗船しましたので、朝食も無しのシンプルプランで。

当日は現地の方も驚く豪雨でしたが、欠航の連絡もないのでひとまず集合場所へ。
しかしバスで港まで連れて行かれた後、添乗員の方は何故か列の最後方を歩いており、先頭あたりにいた私たちは、雨の中どこへ向かえばいいのかも分からず…
乗船後も誰も案内（というか一切の説明）をしてくれないので、間違ったデッキに上がってしまったり、訳が分からず入り口付近で立ち止まってしまう人ばかり。
船内に入った後も、特にちゃんとした説明もないまま朝食が始まったので、おそらく朝食無しプランの方も勝手に食べていたのではないでしょうか。

私は周囲の食事の臭いで酔いそうだったので、出港早々デッキに出て海を眺めていましたが、Naturalistのお姉さんのアナウンスを聞いているだけでも楽しかったです。
さすがに海は荒れて白波が立っており、CaptainやNaturalistの方がクジラを見つけたとアナウンスしてくれても、正直素人には発見は難しかったです。晴れて海面が穏やかなら、もう少し探しやすかったのでしょうか。
残念でしたが、お天気とクジラの出現は運任せですので、仕方なかったかなと諦めています。いつか再挑戦する名目ができました。

ただ乗船前後のケアがもう少ししっかりしていたら、全体的な満足度はもっと高かったんじゃないかと思うと、こちらは悔しい思いが残りました。

I participated in a whale watching plan that included breakfast and hotel transfers! To be honest, the breakfast was not great, but it was nice to have the opportunity to eat breakfast on the sea, so I’m glad I included it. The inside of the boat was air-conditioned and a bit chilly, so it's better to bring a jacket. As for the whale watching, I saw a few whale spouts, but I didn’t actually see any whales. Since it’s nature, there’s nothing that can be done about that. However, I was satisfied with the cruise as I could leisurely enjoy the views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the boat!

朝食付きのホエールウォッチング、ホテルからの送迎付きのプランに参加しました！朝食は正直いまいちですが、海の上で朝食を食べる機会はそうそうないので朝食を付けて良かったです。船内は冷房が効いていて肌寒かったので、上着を持っていったほうが良いですね。肝心のホエールウォッチングですが、数回クジラの潮吹きが見れましたが、クジラは見れませんでした。。自然のことなので、こればかりは仕方ないですよね。船の上からゆっくりとワイキキの街並みやダイアモンドヘッドが見れたのでクルーズとしては満足でした！

Both the sunset and stargazing were incredibly moving. The sunset and stargazing tour at Haleakalā on Maui was great, but this one was also wonderful as we could see the silversword plant.

サンセットも星空観測も大変感動しました。
マウイ島のハレアカラのサンセット＆星空観測ツアーも良かったが、こちらも銀剣草が見られたり素晴らしかったです。

Unfortunately, we couldn't see the sunset or stargaze (>_<)
We managed to reach the summit, and the guides did their best to entertain us, so it turned into a good memory!
I hope to create another opportunity and try again!

残念ながら、サンセットも星空観測も出来ませんでした(>_<)
かろうじて山頂には登ることができ、ガイドさん達も楽しませてくれようと頑張ってくれてたので…良い想い出にはなりました！
また機会を作って、再チャレンジしたいなと思います！

I used this service with my mother. We opted for the premium course that included lunch, but unfortunately, the food was not very good for the price we paid, which was disappointing.

Additionally, while it was said that we could experience various activities, I couldn't understand the explanations about the whales since I don't speak English. The only information provided was a paper outlining the day's schedule, which wasn't very detailed.

There were no signals for when things were supposed to start, so I felt like I had to keep checking the time and act on my own. Many people also experienced seasickness, and overall, it was an activity that I wouldn't want to do again.

母親と利用させて頂きました。
ランチ付きのプレミアムコースにしましたが、まずは、食事が値段の割にはあまり良いものがなく、残念でした。
また、色々な体験が出来るとの事でしたが、英語が分からないのでクジラの説明も分からず、説明の紙も１日の流れが書いてあるのみで、あまり詳しく書いてありませんでした。
全て、始まる合図等ないので、時計を見て自身で行動する感じです。
船酔いの人もとても多く、もう一度利用したいとは思わなかったアクティビティでした。

Very special treatment throughout. Even though we had bad weather, the Captain accommodated us by performing some of the ceremony outside as rain permitted. The food and the service were the highest quality.

Due to the timing or weather, we were able to see the whales, but only for a brief moment as they surfaced. I think it also depends on luck, so we were just enjoying the cruise experience in the meantime.

時期的か天候の為かクジラは見えましたが背中が一瞬見える程度でした。運もあると思いますので僕たちはクルーズ気分を味わうついでにって感じでした。

Nick and Misty did a great job interacting with the group and went out of their way to make sure everyone was comfortable with the tour and the information. Our day was 12 hours long and was very enjoyable from the time we were picked up at our hotel till late in the evening. The volcano lava viewing in the evening was amazing!

We went to Hawaii for our honeymoon. I considered going to Mauna Kea on our own, but it seemed too challenging, so we joined this tour. In hindsight, it was a great decision!

I wore a T-shirt with a long-sleeve rash guard, which felt more like autumn wear, and everyone at the meeting point was dressed for winter, so I thought, "Did I make a mistake?" However, we were able to borrow fluffy ski wear, hats, and gloves, so I wasn't cold at all. There was snow at the summit, but the perceived temperature was higher than around my home. For people from snowy or cold regions, wearing thick clothes might be uncomfortable in warm vehicles, so I think it's better to wear layers that are easy to take on and off.

The bus was full and a bit cramped, but the atmosphere was friendly and enjoyable. On the way there, we did some sightseeing along the route and stopped at a supermarket in Waikoloa, and on the way back, it was quiet... but we were able to stop at the supermarket again, which felt like a bonus. I tried the Maui chips recommended by Kon, and they were delicious.

The highlight, Mauna Kea, was amazing! The changing colors of the sky were beyond my imagination. We could also see the Subaru Telescope. I'm really glad I participated. Additionally, I was thrilled to have many beautiful photos taken with a large DSLR camera that I couldn't have captured myself. (Later, I received an ID and password to download them.) I was unsure which company's tour to choose based on the photo quality, but I'm glad I chose this one.

If I had to mention something, I was a bit disappointed that the lunch was Japanese-style. Since it was a trip, I would have preferred something more Hawaiian. However, the taste was delicious, and the warm miso soup and the choice of drinks (I had cocoa), along with the cookies and tea afterward, were all so good that I ended up asking for seconds. (By the way, the other two Japanese tour companies I saw at Onizuka also had different Japanese-style bento.)

新婚旅行で行ったハワイ。マウナケアは個人で行くことも考えたけれど、やっぱりハードルが高いのでこちらのツアーに参加しました。結果、大正解！

私の服装はＴシャツに長袖ラッシュガードという秋服(？)で、集合場所にいた皆さんの服装が冬服だったので「失敗した！？」と思ったのですが、モコモコのスキーウェアや帽子手袋を借りられるので全く寒くなかったです。山頂に雪はありましたが、自宅周辺よりも体感気温は高かったです。特に雪国・寒冷地の人はあんまり厚手の服だと温かい車内等で大変かもしれないので、脱ぎ着しやすい服がいいと思います。

バスは満員でちょっと狭かったけれど、和気あいあいとした雰囲気で楽しかったです。行きのバスでは通り道の観光もしつつワイコロアのスーパーに寄ったり、帰りは静かに…でもスーパーにも寄ってもらえたのでお得な気分に。こんさんお勧めのマウイチップス、ホテルで食べましたが美味しかったです。

肝心のマウナケアは最高でした！だんだんと空の色が変わっていく様子は想像以上。すばる天文台も見えました。本当に参加してよかったと思いました。また、自分では撮れないような素敵な写真を、大きな一眼カメラでたくさん撮ってもらえて感激。（後日ID&PWが送られてきてダウンロード）どこの会社のツアーで行くか迷って、写真のイメージで決めたのですが、ここにお願いしてよかったです。

あえて言うなら、弁当が和風だったことが少し残念。旅行なのでできればハワイっぽいものが食べたかったかな。でも味は美味しかったし、温かいみそ汁や選べるドリンク(私はココア)、その後のクッキーや紅茶もどれも美味しくてお代わりまでもらってしまいました。(ちなみにオニズカで見た他の日本ツアー2社？も別の和風弁当でした)

I participated in a tour on February 5th. That day, there were concerns about strong winds closing the entrance to the summit, but I managed to reach the top. We were provided with a bento box, miso soup, and tea, which warmed me up a bit before heading to the summit. On the way up, I felt a little palpitations and noticed the decreasing oxygen levels. Looking out the window, I saw that there was still snow, and the air felt cold. Gloves and a hat were essential. I was very moved to see mountains that I can't see in Japan right next to me.

I believe I will never forget the sunset at the summit. The starry sky had a half-moon, making the night sky a bit bright, but I was able to see it well. The guide's explanations were enjoyable, and they helped me take photos of the moon with my smartphone through a telescope that showed the moon's surface. It was truly a wonderful experience.

2月5日にツアーに参加しました。その日は風が強く頂上への入り口が閉ざされてしまう心配がありましたが、なんとか頂上へ辿り着く事ができました。お弁当とお味噌汁やお茶を出していただき、体が少し温まったらいざ頂上へ。登っていく途中少し動悸がして、酸素が少なくなっていくのを感じつつ、窓の外をみるとまだ雪がのこっていて、空気が冷たく感じました。手袋と帽子は必須でした。日本ではみることのできない山々が直ぐ側に見れて、とても感動しました。
頂上でのサンセットは一生忘れることは出来ないと思います。星空は月が半分でていて少し明るい夜空でしたが、十分に見る事ができました。ガイドの方の説明も楽しく、月の表面が見える望遠鏡で月をスマホで撮影もしてくれて、本当に素晴らしい体験をしました。
