This is truly worth more than the price!! I think so, and I will definitely come again next time! Haha. Since it's such a far place that we can't go on our own, there were really a lot of people who took the tour bus! But the bus is comfortable! The movie village tour was really great! I highly recommend it! I want to go again! That scenery is just the best! If my child were older, and if I weren't pregnant, I would want to do the buggy tour next time! Also, Secret Island was amazing! Even though the sea was polluted due to the hurricane, it was still satisfying! So I will come back for a revenge trip to Secret Island! On the island, you can enjoy activities like beach volleyball, table tennis, kayaking, and surfing, all for free! My child enjoyed kayaking! I was just swaying in the hammock! It's a place where just being there feels amazing. They even let my child ride a horse lightly! There are many staff members who can speak Japanese, and everyone is kind! They are really gentle with children too! So I am truly satisfied, and I will definitely come again! Next time, I will enjoy the beautiful sea!
これは本当に値段以上に価値があります!!
と私は思いますし、また絶対次回も来ます!笑
自分達で行けないくらい遠い場所な為かツアーでバスに乗った人は本当に大勢!でもバスは快適です!映画村ツアー本当によかった!本当にオススメ!また行きたい!あの景色は本当最高!子供が大きかったら、、私が妊婦じゃなかったらバギーツアーにしたいな!次は!あとシークレットアイランド最高!ハリケーンの影響で海が汚染されていたのに大満足するくらいいい!だからリベンジしてまたシークレットアイランドに来ます!島でハンモックに揺られてビーチバレーや卓球、カヤック、サーフィン等、好きな遊びをもちろん無料で!子供はカヤック楽しんでました!私はハンモックに揺られてました!空間に居るだけで最高!って思えるよーな場所です。

The sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea was also very wonderful, but it was a bit cold. During the stargazing, I saw the Milky Way for the first time in my life. The guide's explanations were easy to understand and entertaining. I was very satisfied to see various colored stars through the telescope, including Saturn's rings, Antares in Scorpius, and the stars of the Big Dipper, as well as the Andromeda Galaxy.
マウナケア山頂サンセットもとても素晴らしかったのですが少し寒かった

We ended up not going on this trip. The pick up was scheduled for 6:30 at a hotel we were not staying at. After 15 minutes we called the company. Oh our driver was on his way. We called again after 7. Same response and no apologies. We called and canceled . The driver didn't show up until 7:40!!! We did get our money back.

Due to traffic (not indicated by Google Maps) we were running late. I called the boat office and they would not hold the boat for me for 7 minutes, as that is all we needed after the traffic picked up to get to the pier. Extremely disappointed! It was our last night in Hawaii so we couldn't make it up. $450 in the air. Hopefully Veltra will understand and issue a refund.

Car was on time but itinerary outlined the day before with the Veltra rep was not communicated to the driver. The first stop was Diamond Head overlook. Car wouldn't start when we were ready to leave. Apparently we were out of gas. Had to wait > 30 min for someone to bring a gallon of gas. We then had to find a gas station to finish filling the car with fuel. The gas station was not on out agreed upon route. Driver was born / raised on the island and once we navigated the car issues there were some interesting facts he shared with us. It was so unfortunate the fuel issue ruined what could have been the bow on what was a great visit to Hawaii.

Watching the sunset—connecting it to my own life as a way of signaling the end of a day on Earth—made me want to see the best sunset after turning 60. Moreover, with the Milky Way above and a mantle convection hotspot beneath my feet, I chose Haleakalā for this unique experience. It truly is mysterious how "connections" work; I met Mr. Yamauchi, who has been guiding Haleakalā tours for 2,800 times, after moving to Maui from Washington State, where I have lived for 25 years—this seems too coincidental to be mere chance.
His passion for continuing to guide up to 3,055 times, in reference to Haleakalā's elevation of 3,055 meters, shines through in his gestures as he serves hot barley tea and when he passionately shares his life story. This was not just a tour to see the sunset and starry sky; it was something wonderful. Due to the full moon, we couldn't see the Milky Way, but Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn were all clear! Through the telescope, we could see satellites and rings, making it feel like a textbook experience (though it’s usually the other way around). I will come again during the new moon. There are still many other places I want to visit in Maui.
I am savoring a level of satisfaction that cannot be expressed in words, thanks to Mr. Yamauchi's flexible responses, Mayu's smile, and the very well-organized tour. Everything is a cosmic arrangement.

Due to the construction of a new hotel on the premises and possible vehicle entry restrictions, I was worried because the shuttle bus didn't arrive for a while. It seems that a group of Chinese tourists and another group of foreigners were communicating cheerfully, which caused a delay of nearly an hour. We departed for the airport right away and, for some reason, only arrived a little late but safely. As expected from the local driver, thank you very much!
敷地内にホテル新築中で車の入場制限がある為なのか、送迎バスが中々来なくて心配でした。同じバスに乗る予定の中国人グループと外人グループが賑やかに連絡したらしく1時間近く遅れて到着。直ぐに空港へ出発し何故か少し遅れた位だけで無事到着。さすが現地ドライバーさん、有り難う御座いました。

It's been a while since I visited Oahu. I usually use it on the Big Island, so this time I used it without hesitation. We were the only Japanese couple, and the rest were older foreign couples, but everyone was very friendly, and the transfer went by in no time. In particular, the foreign driver's loud voice providing information about the surroundings was easy to understand and very helpful.

We have been coming here for quite a while and have attended more luaus than I can count. The island breeze luau is the best. What makes this one great is the history of the island that is part of the program. Plus the buffet is the best one around. And just like in real estate, LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION!!!!!!
We recently moved here so a luau is always on the agenda when friends come. We still get as excited now as the first one we ever saw.

Compared to Waikiki, the weather was not very good, and I was a bit worried, but by the time we reached the summit, it was clear skies! We were able to see the shining sunset and the Venus Belt that appeared after sunset.
The stargazing afterward was also wonderful, as we enjoyed a sky full of stars, including the Milky Way, the Southern Cross, and planets. It was truly a fantastic experience, and my friend and I were both deeply moved.
It gets really cold at the summit, so having Heattech would be a good idea.
ワイキキと比べるとあまり天気が良くなくて少し心配していたのですが、山頂に到着する頃には快晴!光輝くサンセットと日没後現れるビーナスベルトも見ることが出来ました。

You can easily drive to the summit of Mauna Kea. You can acclimatize to the altitude while enjoying a bento, and they provide solid advice on breathing techniques. Watching the sunset sinking into the sea of clouds is truly moving! You might even forget to breathe... During the stargazing, you can see the Southern Cross and the Milky Way, and the explanations of the constellations were very easy to understand. They take great care in preparing warm clothing and drinks, allowing you to forget the cold and get lost in the starry sky! You can also capture such wonderful scenery in photos. If you have a DSLR but lack confidence, don't worry! They will carefully guide you on camera settings. Even if you can't take the photos yourself, a great photographer will capture the best shots for you. Thank you, Macchan, for taking care of us from the beginning to the end of the tour.
