ハレアカラ山頂 夕日鑑賞+星空観測ツアー 1名~参加OK!グループや家族連れにおすすめの貸切プランあり<午後/日本語ガイド>

I was moved. 感動しました

Reviewed by: mf

I was moved by the beautiful sunset with high transparency and the magnificent starry sky seen from the top of the mountain. The storytelling of our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, who has rich life experiences, was also great. I appreciated the thoughtful attention to detail, which made for a very memorable experience.

山の上から見る、透明度が高く美しい夕日、雄大な星空に感動しました.ガイドの山内さんの人生経験豊かな語りもよかったです.すみずみまで配慮いただき、おかげでとても思い出深い体験ができました.

ハレアカラ山頂 夕日鑑賞+星空観測ツアー 1名~参加OK!グループや家族連れにおすすめの貸切プランあり<午後/日本語ガイド>

In the midst of magnificent nature 壮大な大自然の中で

Reviewed by: てるちゃん

I visited Maui for the first time on August 21 with my 9-year-old daughter. We rented a car, but since Maui has many mountain roads and it seemed difficult to drive, especially as first-time visitors, I searched for a tour with Alan1 and decided to join this one. The deciding factor was the reviews mentioning that Yamapi, the Japanese guide, had many repeat customers. Since I'm not good at English, having a Japanese guide was the best choice for me (laughs).

On the day of the tour, we departed with a family of five from Osaka, who had three children, making a total of eight of us. With four kids, it was lively and fun! The adults were all friendly, so it felt like we were traveling with friends. We enjoyed Krispy Kreme donuts and explored a town with a gallery featuring the artwork painted on our van, and then we headed to Haleakalā. I learned that Haleakalā is as tall as Japan's Mount Fuji (very high!), and you can drive all the way to the top (amazing!).

Our experienced guide, Yamapi, made sure to take breaks at 1,000 meters and 1,500 meters to help our bodies acclimate to the altitude. He was an excellent driver, and even though we went quite high, I didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. While chatting (surprisingly, the topics were about science, which was intellectual), we climbed up saying, "We're going to eat the clouds!" When we reached the clouds, we opened the car windows and all tried to "eat" the clouds. Once we emerged from the clouds, we were greeted by an endless blue sky and a sea of clouds! The view when we got out of the car was so breathtaking that I thought it might be heaven.

The sunset we saw from there was truly beautiful and magnificent, and I was deeply moved. I believe I will never forget the sunset in the panoramic nature surrounding us. The countless stars we saw after sunset were also wonderful. Both the children and adults felt the life of the Earth and experienced that we are not living alone but are being supported by it. It was a fantastic tour.

Thank you so much, Yamapi. I would love to participate again!

8月21日にはじめてマウイ島にきました。9歳の娘と2人でレンタカーも借りたのでですが、マウイは山道が多く運転も大変そうだし、観光名所も初めてだとわかりにくそうだったのでAlan1さんで探してこのツアーに参加させていただきました。
決め手は山ピーさんの日本語ガイドでリピーターがたくさんいらっしゃるという書き込みでした。私は英語が苦手なのでやはり
日本語ガイドが1番です(笑)
当日は山ピーさんの引率のもと、大阪から来た3人兄弟のいる5人家族と私と娘の8人で出発しました。
子供が4人いたのでにぎやかで楽しいこと!大人もみんな気さくに話せる方々だったのでなんだか友達の家族と旅行に来ているようでした。クリスピードーナツを食べ、バンに描いてある絵の画廊がある町などを探索していよいよハレアカラに向かいます。ハレアカラは日本の富士山の高さのある山だそうで(高い!)、頂上まで全部車で行けます(すごい!)。
ベテランの山ピーさんが少しずつ体が高所に慣れるよう1000メートル、1500メートルなどの地点で休憩をはさんで下さって、運転もとても上手なのでかなり高い所にいきますが、苦しくなったりは全くありませんでした。
ワイワイ(意外と話の内容は理科のお話で知的)言いながら「雲を食べるぞー!」と登って行き、雲の中に来た時に車の窓を開けてもらいみんなで口を開けて雲を食べました。雲を抜けるとそこはどこまでも続く青い空と雲の海!車を降りて立った景色は
天国かしら?と思うほどの見たこともない世界
そこから見た夕日は本当に美しく壮大で感動しました。
360度のパノラミックな大自然の中でみた日没は生涯忘れないと思います。日没後に見た降るような無数の星空☆も素晴らしいものでした。
子供たちも大人もみんなそれぞれ地球の命を感じ、自分ひとりで生きているんじゃなくて、生かされているんだということを体感できた素晴らしいツアーでした。
山ぴーさん、本当にありがとうございました。また参加させていただきたいと思います。

Thank you for your hard work the other day. It was such a fun time! The kids from Osaka are truly natural entertainers, and they made us laugh from the bottom of our hearts. In the end, it was quite lively with everyone vying for your daughter’s attention. Seeing Mars, Venus, and Saturn through the reflecting telescope amazed the kids! I'm sure it was a memorable time for them as well. On the way back, the kids were so exhausted that they seemed to run out of battery and fell asleep, haha. Being with such innocent children really cleanses the heart. I look forward to our next reunion.

先日は長い時間お疲れ様でした。
とにかく楽しい時間でしたね~やはり大阪の子供達は根っからの芸人で
お腹から笑わせてもらいました。
もはや最後は娘さんの取り合いで盛り上がりましたね~。
火星も金星も土星も反射望遠鏡で見れて子供たちもびっくり!
きっと子供達も忘れられない時間になったと思います。
帰りの車中はさすがの子供たちも電池が切れたように寝ていましたけど、、笑
純真な子供達といると心が洗われますね。
またの再会を心待ちしています。

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ(キングカメハメハホテル内)<ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

Authentic show 本格的なショー

Reviewed by: ちび

You will receive a voucher at the hotel's dedicated reception. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. However, it seems that even if you arrive early, you will be guided from the back, so you can't choose your seat. You will have a meal while watching the show. The food itself was just okay. When we went, there was a heavy rain that caused a temporary interruption, but it was a nice memory.

ホテルの専用受付で引換券をもらいます。
席は早い人順でした。ただ早く行っても奥から案内されるみたいなので席は選べないようです。

Royal Star Pearl Harbor Experience with Tickets to Arizona Memorial & City Tour

Informative Tour

Reviewed by: Iain F.

This may not be the best for younger kids but if they have any interest in the worlds history then this will be perfect. The memorial is breathtaking and a real tear jerker. I would recommend anyone visiting Oahu must see it. We had a mix up on the pickup location so we got on the bus about 30 minutes late but still made the memorial with plenty of time before our showing of the movie. The place is great and the stories behind it our sobering. The Mighty Mo is great for the whole family. Lots of cool things to touch and see. The tour continues with the downtown trip and punch bowl drive through. Both were well timed and needed after the long day of walking.

オアフ島 熱帯雨林ハイキング 初心者~中級者向け <英語ガイド>

Having a Japanese guide is definitely more enjoyable. やはり日本人ガイドの方が楽しい

Reviewed by: QQQ

Last year, I enjoyed hiking with a Japanese guide, and I signed up for a different plan with a Japanese guide this year, but unfortunately, it was fully booked. Reluctantly, I used this plan, but the guide did not show up at the pickup time and arrived quite late. There was no excuse for the tardiness upon arrival. The plan involved walking through a private church property in rubber boots. As I walked, I thought it felt like the Japanese military's Imphal operation. After walking for several minutes, we arrived at a waterfall, and shortly after that, we turned back. There was little explanation provided. I feel that last year's plan with the Japanese guide was much more enjoyable. I can't really recommend this one.

昨年は日本人ガイドでのハイキングを楽しみ、ことしも日本人ガイドの別プランを申し込んだのですが、あいにく満員でした。止む無く、このプランを利用しましたが、お迎え時刻になっても現れず、かなりの遅刻での登場でした。遅刻の言い訳もなしに現地へ。教会の私有地のヌカルミを長靴をはいてもくもくと歩くプランでした。日本軍のインパール作戦みたいだなと思いながら歩くこと数十分。滝に到着し、しばらくしてからU-ターンという流れでした。解説は少なめ。やはり、去年の日本人ガイドのプランのほうが随分と楽しかった気がします。あまり、お勧めできません。

We had only one day to see O'ahu...and this tour was perfect! Dennis was a very entertaining, informative, and patient tour guide.

Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor Tour & Circle Island Sightseeing

Awesome Tour - Best on the island!!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This was the absolute BEST thing we did to get to know the island. Hana is the absolute BEST tour guide EVER! There is no doubt that Pearl Harbor and the Arizona is awesome - moving, and just "wow", a time for reflection...yet just the beginning.
A tour through the island was indeed the best way to go. Everyone must experience a Dole whip. And bring some note paper with you so you can write down the specific beach you want to spend more time at. We rented a car the next day to retrace our steps and stay longer at specific places of interest to us. This tour is a MUST DO, and I hope you will be as lucky as we were to have Hana. He can answer any question you have about the islands!! And he made the day (which you think 11 hours would be long...) fly by fast!
Thank you Hana!!!!

Pearl Harbor Tour

Reviewed by: ceannaire

This was one of my daughters favorite parts of our vacation. That is a tough sell for a 14 year old. Pearl Harbor was great. I wish we would of stayed at the Dole Pineapple Planation longer. It was great to have someone drive you around the island and inform you with so much knowledge you would not know otherwise. Door to door transportaion was great since we didn't rent a car on Oahu. The tour wants me to come back to Oahu for more.

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour マウナケア山頂 サンセット&星空観測ツアー

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

When we left the hotel, the weather was cloudy with occasional light rain. However, as we climbed Mauna Kea, the clouds cleared, and it became a beautiful sunny day. It was very moving to see the sunset from the 4,000-meter summit. I was able to see the shadow of Mauna Kea reflected in the clouds, as well as the Subaru Telescope and many other observatories nearby.

For stargazing, we enjoyed a sky full of stars with explanations at a spot a little lower down. It was the first time I saw someone use a laser pointer to indicate constellations in the night sky. During the astronomical observation, we were able to see the rings of Saturn through a telescope. The guide's witty explanations of the constellations were enjoyable, and time flew by quickly.

Even though it's Hawaii, 4,000 meters feels like a different world; it's cold. As noted, warm clothing is essential. I took it slow to avoid altitude sickness, but near the summit, I experienced a lack of oxygen, which slowed my movements. If I have the opportunity, I would like to see the autumn sky next time.

ホテルを出発したときは曇りで時より小雨の天候でした。しかし、マウナケアへ登るにつれて雲は晴れ、快晴になってしまいました。4000mの山頂で夕陽を見ることができてとても
感動的でした。マウナケアの影が雲に映るのが見れたり、スバル天文台ほか多くの観測施設も近くで見れました。
星座観測は、少し下ったところのスペースで満天の星空を解説つきで楽しみました。レーザーポインターで夜空の星座を指し示すことができるのをはじめて見ました。
天体観測では、土星の輪を望遠鏡でとらえることができました。ガイドさんの軽妙な口調の星座の説明も楽しくあっという間に時間が過ぎてしまいました。
ハワイといっても4000mは別世界、寒いです。注意書きにある通り防寒着は必須です。高山病にならないようゆっくり行きますが、頂上付近では、酸素不足で行動がスローになりました。
機会があったら、今度は秋の空を見てみたいものです。

Waimea Canyon Sightseeing Tour & Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto

Fast but Nice

Reviewed by: Donald

The tour is a bit rushed as expected because of all the area covered. However, you get to see a lot, but for a small amount of time. Waimea Canyon is most definitely the highlight of the tour. The river trip and fern grotto weren't too exciting. The tour is a good way to get an overview if you just have one day on the island (like we did).

Incredible!
For sunset lovers like us, watching the sunset from Mauna Kea at 4200m was the best. The sun sinking into the clouds, the colors of the clouds, and jumping multiple times to take photos created so many memories.
Stargazing was also fun! The starry sky was truly breathtaking, unlike anything I've ever seen. Even for someone like me who struggles with constellations, the explanation with the laser pointer made it very easy to understand. We saw the Southern Cross, Scorpius, the Big Dipper, and the Summer Triangle, among others. Since Tanabata was approaching, it was great to also see the Milky Way, Orihime, and Hikoboshi.
I didn't feel the cold thanks to the lack of wind and the preparation of not just warm clothing but also pants.
I was impressed by the "eco" measures taken for the lunch.
Thank you for all the wonderful experiences!

サンセット好きの私たちにとってマウナ・ケア4200mで見る夕焼けは最高でした。雲の中に沈んでいく太陽。雲の色。何回もジャンプして写真をとった事。思い出がいっぱいできました。

星座の苦手な私でもレーザーポインターの説明でとってもよく解りました。南十字星、さそり座、北斗七星、夏の大三角などなど。七夕が近かったので天の川や織姫、彦星も見られてよかったです。

野生のイルカウォッチング&シュノーケリングツアー <朝食・昼食付き>

Everyone should go and have fun together! みんなでワイワイ行くべし!

Reviewed by: ウォンダン

I went last week!

It was a tour that I was completely satisfied with. On the day we participated, my group was the only one made up of Japanese people. Most of the other guests were from the mainland United States. There were mostly couples, families, and groups participating.

We received safety instructions for snorkeling, but we were given a paper written in Japanese, so I think even those who are worried about the language can participate with peace of mind. Also, the staff and the surrounding guests all had a friendly atmosphere, so even if you don't speak English well, you can communicate with simple words and have a good time.

I think it's okay for those who are not confident in swimming to participate. On this tour, there were people enjoying themselves while floating on inflatable rings.

I recommend this tour for the morning since the waves are calmer then. Even in the morning tour, the waves do get a bit higher in the latter half.

It was a very enjoyable tour, but I got seasick on the way back. It takes nearly 30 minutes from the snorkeling point to the port, so you might feel nauseous. I recommend bringing motion sickness medication. Even if you don't have any, if you tell the staff, they will make ginger ale to help alleviate the nausea.

For snorkeling, I was lent a prescription snorkeling set. It's recommended for those who wear glasses.

Everyone was able to return to their childhood, jumping into the sea and enjoying snorkeling, having a great time. Other guests were also frolicking like children. I definitely recommend participating as a group and having fun together.

The water was clear down to the bottom, which was impressive. There were many sea urchins at the bottom, and I was able to see cute fish as well. The seawater was warm, which was also nice.

先週行ってきました!

すべてに大満足のツアーでした。
私たちが参加した日は私のグループのみが日本人でした。
他はアメリカ本土からのお客さんが多かったです。
カップルや家族連れ、グループでの参加がほとんどでした。

スノーケリングの注意などを受けますが、日本語で書かれた紙を渡されるので、言葉に心配な人でも安心して参加できると思います。
また、スタッフやまわりのお客さんもみんなフレンドリーな雰囲気だったので、英語が良くできなくても、簡単な言葉でコミュニケーションをとったり、楽しく過ごすことができました。

泳ぎに自信がない人も参加して大丈夫だと思います。
今回のツアーでも、浮き輪で揺られて楽しんでいる人もいました。

また、午前中のほうが波が静かなので、こちらのツアーをお勧めします。午前中のツアーでも後半では波が少し高くなってきます。

とても楽しいツアーでしたが、帰りの船で船酔いしてしまいました。スノーケリングのポイントから港まで30分近くかかるので、気持ち悪くなるかもしれません。
酔い止めを持っていくことをお勧めします。
もし、酔い止めをもっていなくとも、スタッフに伝えれば、酔い止めを緩和するジンジャーエールを作ってくれます。

スノーケリングでは、度付きのスノーケリングセットを貸してもらいました。めがねの人はお勧めです。

みんなが童心に帰って、海に飛び込んだり、スノーケリングを楽しんだり、楽しい時間をすごすことができました。
他のお客さんも子供のようにはしゃいでいました。
絶対、グループで参加してみんなでワイワイ過ごすことをオススメします。

海の中は底まで透き通っていて、感動的でした。
海の底にはウニがたくさんいて、かわいい魚たちも見ることができました。海水も暖かかったのもよかったです。

The sunset was breathtaking. 感動の夕日★★

Reviewed by: なな

I participated after being recommended by a friend. I was a bit hesitant because the price was high, but it was definitely the right decision!

I was moved by the scenery I had never seen before. The sun, radiating overwhelming light above the red-tinted clouds, was incredibly mystical. Also, the stargazing afterward was fortunate, as it seemed to be a clear night for viewing stars. I was able to see shooting stars, the Milky Way, and numerous constellations, making it feel just like a planetarium.

As for the climate, I had prepared hand warmers and a scarf thinking it would be colder, but it wasn't as chilly as I expected.

If I were to mention a downside, it might be unavoidable, but it seemed that the pickup was last, so my friend and I ended up sitting apart, and I had to sit alone for a long time during the journey. Since the scenery was so beautiful, I wish I could have enjoyed it with my friend while chatting...

友達に勧められて参加しました。
料金が高いのでちょっと迷っていたのですが、参加して正解!

見たことのない景色に感動しました。
赤く染まる雲の上に圧倒的な光を放つ太陽が、すごく神秘的でした。
また、そのあとのスターゲイジングも、運よくきれいに星が見える日だったようで、流れ星や天の川、数々の星座が見れて、まるでプラネタリウムのようでした。

気候は、もっと寒いかなとカイロやマフラーまで用意してたのですが、思ったより寒くなかったです。

難点をあげるとすれば、仕方ないのかもしれませんが、ピックアップが最後だったようで、友達と席が離れてしまい、長時間の移動を一人で座っていたことですね。
せっかくのきれいな景色だったので、友達とわいわいしながら観たかったな。。。

【2025年7月4日独立記念日限定!】ディナークルーズ スターオブホノルル号 船上から眺める花火とワイキキの夜景!ディナーはビュッフェやコース料理から選べる

I enjoyed the night view and fireworks in Hawaii. ハワイの夜景と花火満喫しました。

Reviewed by: jiroyuta

It started with a sunset while enjoying dinner, and I had the main dish of lobster. My hands got a bit messy, but it was delicious. I wish there had been a special spoon for crab so I could have eaten everything. It would have also been nice to have extra napkins. I thought a finger bowl would have been even better. The steak was a reasonable size and very tasty. I reserved a window-side seat, but during the fireworks, everyone gathered on the right side, and only a couple of groups were seated to watch. Luckily, I was able to join one of those groups. I enjoyed the night view of Honolulu and was able to watch the spectacular fireworks while seated, making it the best night ever. The entertainment until we returned to port included Hawaiian and jazz performances, and we all got excited dancing together at the end. The traffic on the way back to the hotel was as expected and took a while, but compared to the traffic in Tokyo, it wasn't too bad. The fare was nearly double what it was on the way there, but I was able to get some great information from the taxi driver during our conversation.

DINNERを楽しみながらのSUNSETから始まり、MAIN DISHのROBSTOR少し手は汚れましたが美味しくいただきました。蟹専用のスプーンがあれば全てを食べつくせたのに残念でした。またナプキンが余分に置いてあれば良いのですが?フィンガーボウルがあればさらに良かったと思いました。ステーキも手ごろな大きさで美味しくいただきました。WINDOW SAIDEの席を予約いたしましたが花火のときは右舷に全員が集まり座席で座って見ているのは2.3のGROOPのみで運良くそのGROOPに入ることが出来ました。HONOLULUの夜景を楽しみさらに盛大な花火を座って見ることが出来最高の夜をすごすことが出来ました。帰港するまでのENTERTAINMENTもHAWAIAN & JAZZの演奏最後は全員参加での踊りで盛り上がりました。帰りのHOTELまでの渋滞は予想通りでしばらくかかりましたが東京での渋滞に比較すればさほどではありませんでした。行きの倍近くの料金になりましたがTAXI DRIVERとの会話でとっておきの情報をGETすることが出来ました。

Thank you for boarding the Star of Honolulu for the Independence Day fireworks cruise on July 4th. Fortunately, thanks to the stabilizers, the ship was able to remain steady even when passengers gathered on one side. (The ship often tilts during sunset as well.) Staying in Hawaii during the festive atmosphere is also a delight.

Thank you for your comments. We look forward to welcoming you aboard again.

It was more wonderful than I imagined. 想像以上の素晴らしさでした

Reviewed by: noriko

Among the many sunset and stargazing tours available, I chose this one after reading reviews.

The weather and conditions were great, and the beauty of the sunset exceeded my expectations. The starry sky was so stunning that even after returning to the hotel late at night, I was too excited to fall asleep.

At first, I had trouble following the guide's explanations with the laser pointer and missed a few constellations, but overall, I was very satisfied. I had the chance to experience starlight and see Saturn's rings through a telescope, which was something I couldn't normally do, and I was extremely pleased. Personally, I think it would have been better to familiarize myself with the constellations for this time of year in advance. I was a bit worried about altitude sickness, but since we ascended gradually, it wasn't a problem at all. During the stargazing, they served us tea, which I think helped with hydration.

This may not be directly related to the tour, but during dinner, they served miso soup in bowls, and the bento boxes were not disposable but reusable, which showed the guide's effort and consideration for the environment.

If I have the opportunity again, I would love to join this tour once more.

数あるサンセットと星空観測ツアーの中、口コミなどを見てこちらのツアーに参加しました。

天候とコンディションもよく、想像以上のサンセットの美しさと満点の星空に、夜遅くツアーからホテルに帰ってからも、興奮してなかなか寝付けないくらいでした。

ガイドさんの説明も、最初はレーザーポインタを目で追うのが慣れなくて、いくつか星座を見逃してしまいましたが、充分満足できるものでした。星明りを体験したり、望遠鏡で土星の輪を見せてもらったり、普段経験できないことが存分にできて大変満足でした。個人的には、この時期の星座を事前に頭に入れておいておけば、良かったかと思います。高山病の不安もありましたが、時間をかけて上がっていったので、全く問題ありませんでした。星空観測の際も、お茶をサービスして頂き、水分を補給していたのが良かったのだと思います。

ツアーと直接関係ないかもしれないですが、夕食のお弁当の時に、お味噌汁をお椀でサービスして下さったり、お弁当箱もゴミで捨てるものではなく、回収してまた使えるものだったり、ガイドさんの手間は掛かるでしょうが、環境に対する配慮も感じられました。

また機会があったら、こちらのツアーに参加したいと思います。

thank you

Reviewed by: Betty Connors

Thank you for giving us a ‘local’ (shaka) tour. You live in a true abode where people smile and mean it. Growth is coming but with folks like you, ‘on guard”, we are assured that the beauty of “old Hawaii will continue to shine through.

Private Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour from Hilo

Untitled

Reviewed by: Jeremiah Wilson

I was absolutely stunned by the beauty of East Hawaii. Hilo can often be a victim of superficial judgments. I know it is the rainiest city in the USA and that it is routinely beset by tropical downpours but we saw rainbows, waterfalls and green, green, green… Thank you.

ワイキキトロリー ワイキキ巡回トロリーまたはミニバス 乗り放題1・4日間券(アラモアナ、ダイアモンドヘッド、カカアコ、東海岸など)

Trolley トローリー

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This was my first time in Hawaii, so I planned to get around using the trolley. The Pink Line comes about every 10 minutes, which was very convenient, but the Red and Green Lines only come every 35 minutes and don't always arrive on time, so I felt a bit of inconvenience. Next time, I plan to ride the Pink Line for free with my JCB card and buy a pass for The BUS to get around.

今回は初めてのハワイということで、トローリーで動き回る計画でプランニングしました。ピンクラインはだいたい10分おきにくるので、大変便利でしたが、レッドとグリーンは35分おきとはいえ時間通りにこないので、少し不便さを感じました。次回はJCBカードでピンクラインにタダで乗って、The BUSのPassを買って動いてみようと思います。

ハレアカラ山頂 夕日鑑賞+星空観測ツアー 1名~参加OK!グループや家族連れにおすすめの貸切プランあり<午後/日本語ガイド>

Star observation...? 星の観測・・・?

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

When I heard that chairs and blankets would be provided for stargazing, I decided to sign up for this tour. I thought I would be able to enjoy the stars while slowly listening to stories about them, along with some tea and a blanket. However, it turned into the guide sharing personal stories instead. In the cold, I would have preferred to hear more about the stars or to return to the hotel earlier.

星を観測するときに、椅子とひざかけを用意してくださるとのことでしたので、こちらのツアーに申し込みました。
椅子とひざかけ、そしてお茶をいただき、ゆっくり星の話を聞きながら、星を見られるのか・・・と思っていたら、ガイドさんの身の上話になってしまいました。寒い中、そのような話を聞くよりも星の話を聞きたかったです。もしくは、もっと早くホテルに帰りたかったです。

I remember that you participated with your mother. On that day, we had a lively star tour with nine people, and we ended up talking for quite a while. I may have lacked consideration for your elderly mother. I sincerely appreciate your feedback and will take it into account for future tours. Thank you for your valuable input.

お母様とお二人で参加して頂いたのを覚えております。
この日9名での星ツァーで盛り上がってしまい、ついつい話が長引いてしまいました。
ご高齢のお母様への配慮が欠けていたかもしれません。
ご意見を真摯に受け止めてこれからのツァーの参考にさせて頂きます。
貴重なご意見を頂き有難うございました。

Before leaving, we want to express our sincere thanks to you for providing such a ‘class act’ in the tour service you offer. We had the privilege of doing both the Hana and Haleakala trips with you and we had an unforgettable time; learned a great deal and were as comfortable as could be. You certainly leave no stone unturned to ensure the best possible service toyour clients - we appreciate that. Our tour guides were prompt, courteous, most adept at their jobs and extended to us what we refer to as the real Hawaiian hospitality. We could have asked for nothing more. They thought of everything! Please extend our thanks to each of them too for making us feel like one of the family.

野生のイルカウォッチング&シュノーケリングツアー <朝食・昼食付き>

I highly recommend it! お奨めです!

Reviewed by: Taka

I participated on May 20th.
First, the reception desk was set up in front of the Body Glove boat. Staff members arrived a little before the meeting time. It seemed there were no staff who spoke Japanese, but everyone was very gentlemanly and friendly, and they kindly listened even to my broken English, which was helpful.
We encountered a pod of dolphins right after departure. I think there were about 20 of them. It was my first time seeing wild dolphins, and I was moved. By the way, we encountered them again at the same spot on the way back, so they might always be there during this time of year.
After that, it took about 40 minutes to reach the snorkeling point. There was guidance in English along the way, but I couldn't catch it because it was too fast. However, they showed us a Japanese explanation sheet, so it was not a problem at all.
You can enjoy snorkeling for over two hours at a depth of about 5 to 10 meters where there are coral reefs. The water was a bit cold and somewhat chilly, but the visibility was high and there were many fish, so I had a great time. There seemed to be life jackets available, but I was strongly recommended to use a noodle, which is a long foam float, and when I tried it, it was indeed easy to use. Of course, they also lend you a snorkel and fins.
As for meals, as soon as you get on the boat, you can freely take breakfast (bread, muffins, fruit, drinks), and when you arrive at the snorkeling point, lunch (bread, ham, vegetables, potato chips, drinks, etc., all of various kinds) is provided, which you can also eat freely. The taste was just average, but I thought it was good that there were various options.
We were the only Japanese participants, but I think it’s a tour that is easy to join because the staff is very polite. One point to note is that the boat sways quite a bit, so I think it would be safer for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some medication before participating.

 5月20日に参加してきました。
 まず、受付はボディグローブの船の前にデスクが置いてあり、そちらになります。集合時間の少し前からスタッフの方がいらっしゃいました。日本語の通じるスタッフはいないようでしたが、皆さん非常に紳士的かつフレンドリーで片言の英語でも丁寧に聞いてくれるので、助かりました。
 出発してすぐにイルカの群れに遭遇しました。20頭ぐらいはいたと思います。野生のイルカは初めて見たので感動でした。ちなみに、帰りも同じポイントで遭遇しましたので、この時期は日中いつもそこにいるのかも知れません。
 その後、40分ほどかけてシュノーケリングポイントに到達します。途中、英語でガイダンスがありますが、早口で全く聞き取れませんでした。でも、日本語の説明書を見せてくれるので全く問題なかったです。
 珊瑚礁のある深さ5~10m程度のところで2時間以上シュノーケリングを満喫できます。水がやや冷たく若干肌寒かったですが、透明度は高く魚も多いので楽しめました。ライフジャケットもあるようでしたが、ヌードルという細長い発泡スチロールのような浮きを強く奨められ、使ってみたところ確かに使いやすかったです。もちろん、シュノーケルとフィンも貸してくれます。
 食事は、船に乗るとすぐに朝食(パン、マフィン、果物、飲み物)をフリーで取ることができ、シュノーケリングポイントにつくとランチ(パン、ハム、野菜、ポテトチップス、飲み物などいずれも複数種類)が用意され、これもフリーで食べられます。味はまあ普通ですが、種類がいろいろあるのがよいと思いました。
 日本人は我々だけでしたが、スタッフがとても丁寧なので参加しやすいツアーだと思います。一点だけ、船は結構揺れるので、弱い方は酔い止めを飲んで参加した方が安心だと思います。
