Every year, I use this service to travel from the hotel to the airport when I come to Hawaii. The pickup time is always accurate, and I feel safe during the ride. I haven't had any issues and will definitely use it again.
毎年ハワイに来るたびホテルから空港までの移動に利用させて頂いています。迎えの時間も正確で道中も安心して乗車しています。特に問題も無くまたリピートさせて頂きます。

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!
Aloha! Mahalo for joining us on our Deluxe Volcano Experience. We are delighted to hear that you had such a great day with Nick and Misty, and stayed comfortable throughout your 12 hours on tour. We love being able to show Halema'uma'u Crater both day and night to our guests, and are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the amazing lava viewing after dinner. Mahalo for your wonderful recommendation and we hope to see you on your next visit to the Big Island!

Although I made a reservation the day before, they were able to accommodate me. I think this is the cheapest shuttle bus option available for solo travelers. The reason I didn't give a perfect score is that the bus arrived about 15 minutes late, which made me a bit anxious while waiting. However, that kind of delay might be normal for "Hawaii time." When I boarded, I was the only passenger, but they mentioned that another person was supposed to join. We made a stop at another hotel, but that person never showed up, so it ended up being a private ride for me, which felt a bit awkward. The bus took the scenic route along my favorite Ala Moana Boulevard instead of the highway. Seeing Ala Moana Park and Aloha Tower at the end of my trip was quite moving. The driver was very cheerful and full of Aloha spirit, making for a really pleasant experience. I think this bus is perfect for wrapping up wonderful memories. Next time, I plan to use it for a round trip if the opportunity arises.
前日の予約でしたが、応じていただけました。
一人で予約できるシャトルバスとしては最安だと思います。
評価が満点でなくマイナスなのは、15分くらいバスの到着時間が
遅れ、バスがくるまで少し不安になったからです。
でも「ハワイ時間」としてはそれくらいの遅延は普通かもしれませんね。
私が乗り込んだときは、私一人でしたが、もう一人乗る予定があるということで、
一か所別のホテルに立ち寄りましたが、結局その方は現れず、
私の貸切状態となり、申し訳ない感じでした。
バスは高速ではなく、私の大好きなアラモアナブールバードを通って行きました。
旅の最後に見る、アラモアナ公園やアロハタワーは感慨深いものがあります。
運転手さんはとても陽気で、
アロハスピリッツにあふれた、とても気持ちの良い方でした。
このバスは、素敵な思い出の締めくくりに最適だと思います。

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。

Waikiki Beach and Hanauma Bay are crowded, so I was looking for other snorkeling tours when I found this West Oahu tour. In my case, it was almost a private tour, which was a great deal and a satisfying experience.
The vehicle (which was a new car at the time, haha) was driven by the guide, so it wasn't a shared bus, allowing for a comfortable ride even over long distances. We stopped at many points, including places I wanted to visit and some I learned about for the first time, and the guide provided detailed information about Hawaii's history, making the journey very enjoyable.
The best part is that there were no people at any of the points we visited! Most tourist tours are filled with other tourists. I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to fully enjoy the private natural beauty of Hawaii. The snorkeling was also incredibly mystical and private since there were no people in the water. Beginners will have no problems at all; they provide excellent support.
ワイキキビーチやハナウマ湾は人が多いので、他のシュノーケルができるツアーを探していたところ、こちらの西オアフツアーを見つけました。
私の場合はほぼプライベートツアーで大変お得で満足な経験をさせて頂きました。
車(この時は新車でしたw)はガイドさんの車で乗り合いバスとかではない為、長距離も乗り心地よくとても快適に過ごせました。
行ってみたかった場所や初めて知った場所、かなり多くのポイントに車を停め、ハワイの歴史などとても詳しく教えて頂き道中もとても楽しめました。
何といってもどのポイントも人がいないのが魅力です‼どの観光ツアーも行く先は観光客ばかりですよね。プライベートなハワイの大自然を満喫したい方に是非おすすめしたいです。
シュノーケルも海に人がいないのですごく神秘的でプライベートなシュノーケルを楽しめました。初心者の方も全く問題ありません。しっかりサポートしてくれます。
Thank you for your review.
West Oahu has a completely different scenery and atmosphere compared to Waikiki and the usual tourist spots, right? I'm glad you enjoyed it.
We also offer private tours, so please feel free to reach out again if you have the opportunity.
Aloha,

Tours like this are greatly influenced by the quality of the guides, and I was very satisfied with the guidance from the KON and JIN duo. For those who enjoy detailed explanations, this is definitely a great choice. The topics about Onizuka and the stargazing guide were top-notch and fantastic.
If you think it's just about watching the sunset or seeing a lot of stars, you're very mistaken. The experience from 4,200 meters is incredibly valuable. I highly recommend going.
Also, for those sensitive to altitude sickness, some symptoms may occur, but if you take care to avoid sudden movements, enjoying the view shouldn't be a problem.
この手のツアーは、ガイドさんの質で左右されるところが大きいですが、KONさんJINさんコンビからガイドを受けた分では、非常に満足でした。うんちく系が好きな人には間違いなしかと思います。オニヅカネタ、星空ガイドは鉄板で最高でした。
日の入り見るだけでしょ?星がたくさん見えるだけでしょ?と思っているのでしたら、大間違いです。4200mからの実物は、体験として、非常に貴重なものでした。行かれる事をお勧めします。
なお、高山病に敏感な人は、それなりに症状は出ますが、急激な動きを避ける等、ケアを行えば観賞は問題ありません。

Unfortunately, I could only see a glimpse of the whale's tail spouting water from a distance, and that was it. Before disembarking, I received a ticket for free boarding on a later date as a form of recovery response. I believe the recovery ticket had a validity of about three months, but I didn't have the time to use it during my stay.
残念ながら、遠くで潮を吹いたクジラの尾びれが少しだけ見えましたが、それだけでした。

Our tour guide, Mr. Konno, made a stop at a beautiful beach as well, which was a lucky start. The sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea (4,200m) was magnificent. On the way back, we enjoyed stargazing around 3,000m, where we could see beautiful stars with the naked eye. Additionally, Mr. Konno provided clear explanations about the stars, making it a fun tour.
当日、13名の参加者とマウナケアに行く途中、参加者の女性から経路途中の溶岩洞窟への立ち寄りを依頼され、ツアー担当の今野さんが綺麗なビーチとセットで立ち寄り、ラッキーで始まり、本題のマウナケア山頂(4,200M)からのサンセットは、素晴らしかった。帰路、3,000M付近で星空観賞をしたが肉眼でも綺麗な星が見られ、更に、今野さんから分かりやすい星の説明を受け、楽しいツアーでした。

The day before was rainy, and there were strong winds on the day itself, so I understood to some extent, but I was unable to see any whales. The sea was rough, and even though it was a large ship, it was rolling and certainly not in a comfortable environment.
I understand that nature is unpredictable, so I can accept not seeing anything, but it left me feeling dissatisfied that there was no interaction at all on the ship or the return bus before we parted ways.
I at least wanted a word of acknowledgment.
前日雨、当日強風という日でしたのですある程度理解はしていましたが、クジラは見る事ができませんでした。
海はシケていたので、大型船ですがうねりながらと決して快適とも言えない環境でした。
見れなかったことに対しても自然が相手だからわかりますが、船でも、帰りのバスでも全く触れないまま解散と、なんだか不満だけが残りました。

I traveled to Hawaii with my older mother and sister. I signed up for the tour because I heard that the West Coast tour was rare. We were supposed to meet at 7:30 AM, but the three of us woke up at 7:20 and were late. We finally got in touch with Akima-san after 9 AM, but they had already moved quite a bit along the West Coast. We took a taxi to Makaha Beach and joined the tour. It’s a funny story now, but everyone, please make sure to set your alarms properly.
My 78-year-old mother tried snorkeling for the first time. She gave up partway through, but she looked happy to finally get into the ocean. I made Akima-san use a lot of energy.
The beautiful scenery and Akima-san's smile were wonderful. When there was trash on the beach, people picked it up, and it felt very natural and normal. It made me realize that visitors should also keep this in mind.
Although it was a short tour, I got to hear a lot of interesting stories. As plant lovers, we found it very fascinating and took many photos.
Thank you very much.

The summit was closed for a week due to bad weather, but it finally opened on the afternoon of the tour, which was lucky. The beautiful sunset from the summit and the starry sky, along with the guide's enjoyable explanations of the stars and constellations, made for a very satisfying tour.
悪天候で山頂が一週間クローズしていて、ツアー当日の午後にやっと山頂がオープン、ラッキーでした。
山頂からの綺麗なサンセット、満天の星空にガイドさんの楽しい星空と星座の説明で大満足のツアーでした。
Thank you very much for participating in our tour.
I see, it was the Mauna Kea sunset tour on the day the gate opened. That's great to hear. We were also anxious about when it would open. The weather at the summit is quite different from down below, so we can only make limited predictions. I'm really glad you were able to see the wonderful views from the summit.
Please come back to the Big Island next time. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

弊社のツアーに御参加頂きまして誠にありがとうございました。
そうでしたか、ゲートオープンの日のマウナケア夕陽ツアーでしたか。よかったです。私達もいつ開くのかやきもきしておりました。
山頂のお天気は下界とはまた違うのである程度の予想しかつきません。
山頂からの素晴らしい景色が見れて本当によかったです。
次回もハワイ島にお越しくださいませ。
スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申しております。

Nice staff. Food was good and plentiful. Service good, though preordered fish was not available. Wish the jazz entertainment had started earlier. Cruising along the coast after sunset was nice. Not sure the evening was worth the cost

We renewed our vows and it was very special. The staff was very attentive and our dinner was wonderful. The Captain was very sincere when doing the renewal.

Thank you very much for participating in our cruise.
We are sorry to hear that you only saw the back of a whale this time.
Sometimes, you can witness the spectacular jumps of whales, so if you have another opportunity, please come and look for those active whales.
All of our staff are looking forward to your visit.

この度は私共のクルーズにご参加頂き、誠に有難うございました。
今回は鯨の背中しかご覧にいただけなかったとの事、残念に思います。
時にはとても豪快な鯨のジャンプなどご覧にいただけますので、
またの機会がございましたら、そんなアクティブな鯨を探しにいらして下さい。
スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
