I was moved by the perfect stars. 満点の星に感動

Reviewed by: Happy

First, I was filled with the stars in the sky. The Milky Way was clearly visible, and shooting stars appeared so quickly that I didn't even have time to make a wish; it was a series of breathtaking moments. I was well-prepared for the cold, and at just the right time, warm tea was served, making me forget the chill as I looked up at the sky. The warm bento was delicious as well. I encountered stars I had never seen before, like the red star and the butterfly star. I would love to participate again.

まずは満天の星に満堂しました。
Milky Wayが鮮明に観え、流れ星も祈る間も無い速さで現れ感動の連続でした。
寒さ対策も万全で、タイミングよく暖かいお茶が出て寒さを忘れて顔は天を仰いだままでした。
暖かいお弁当も美味しかったです。
赤い星、蝶の星など初めての星の出会いもありました。
また参加したいです。

A wonderful sky show. 素晴らしき天空のショー

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

My worries about the cold turned out to be unfounded, and I was captivated by the ever-changing sky show without suffering from a lack of oxygen. Unfortunately, when the sunset occurred, clouds obscured the view, and I couldn't see the sun sinking into the sea of clouds, but the beauty of the surrounding clouds dyed in shades of crimson was beyond words.

I was also impressed by the guide's meticulous attention to detail, and I would love to participate again. Next time, I definitely want to enjoy the sunset.

心配していた寒さは杞憂におわり、また酸素の欠乏に苦しまず刻々と変わる天空のショーに酔いしれました。夕陽が沈むときあいにく雲がかかり雲海に沈む太陽は見れませんでしたが周囲の茜色に染まった雲の美しかったこと筆舌に尽くせません。
またガイドさんの細かな配慮にも感服しまた参加したいと思っております。次回はぜひ夕陽の沈むところを鑑賞したいと思っております。

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show & Dinner Buffet with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

The Best Luau

Reviewed by: Blaze Daniels

This was our first Luau and we are confident in saying that it is quite possibly the best Luau you could attend. It was very authentic and Chief Seilu put on a great show from the dancing to music to his corky comedy. The activities before the Luau and the show itself are a perfect experience for anyone visiting Oahu.

Luau show in heavy rain 大雨のルアウショー

Reviewed by: コナ子

I had heard that the Kona area has little rain, but it seems this year has been quite rainy, and the day we attended the luau show was a disaster (crying).

First, we checked in at the luau desk in the hotel. It was popular, so there was a line, but it was completed smoothly. However, when we went out to the beach, there was a long line. The host was speaking amusingly, but those in the back couldn't hear at all. After entering, I purchased a women's dendrobium lei for $6 and a men's kukui lei for $5. We took a commemorative photo here, but due to the chaos from the heavy rain afterward, photos were not available for purchase anywhere.

We were seated at a table with Americans, greeting and shaking hands. Drinks were free, but since there was only one lady serving, there was another long line. The meal included poi and about three types of meat. The taste was American-style, which I liked.

Just as the meal began, it started to rain... what began as a light drizzle quickly turned into a decent downpour, and everyone was given bath towels to cover their heads. The tablecloth, the trays with food, and everything got soaked from the rain. The drinks were diluted by the rainwater.

Originally, there were supposed to be various activities before the meal, but as the rain intensified, everything was cleared away in about 15 minutes. We couldn't participate in anything. There was no whole roasted pig either. The main show ended up being super fast-paced and finished in no time (laughs). It was supposed to end after 8 PM, but surprisingly, it wrapped up by 6:30 PM, and the band, food, and audience all cleared out immediately.

Despite this disappointing experience, only a few people left their seats, and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves to some extent until the end. I had high expectations based on good reviews, and since it was my first day on the Big Island, I was really looking forward to it, but it ended up being a letdown. I'm unsure if I would want to see it again next time.

コナ地区は雨が少ないと聞いていたが、今年は雨が多いらしく、私達がこのルアウショーに参加した日はさんざんでした(泣)

まずホテル内のルアウデスクでチェックイン。やはり人気で並んでましたがこれは簡単スムーズに完了。
しかしビーチに出てみると長蛇の列。司会進行役が面白おかしく喋っていますが、後方には全く聞こえず。
入場してから女性用デンファレレイを$6で購入、男性用のククイレイは$5。ここで記念写真を撮りますが、この後の大雨のバタバタで写真販売はどこでもされておらず買えず仕舞。

通された席はアメリカの方たちと同じテーブルで、挨拶したり握手したり。
ドリンクはフリーですが、おばちゃん一人で対応しているのでこれまた長蛇の列。食事はポイなどもあり、お肉の種類も3種類ほどありました。味もアメリカンな味で私は好きです。
さて食事が始まってすぐに雨が,,,小雨だったの束の間、そこそこの雨が降り出し、全員にバスタオルが配られ皆が頭からすっぽり白いタオルをずっとかぶってました。テーブルクロスも食事の入ったトレーも料理も全部雨でぐしょぐしょ。グラスのお酒は雨で薄まって水になってました。

本来なら食事前に色んなアクティビティがあったようですが、雨が強くなってどれも15分ほどで撤収。何も参加できず。豚の丸焼きもありませんでした。
肝心のショーも超早送りであれよあれよという間に終わって(笑)20時過ぎ終了予定がなんと18時半には終わって、バンドも料理も観客も即撤収。
そんな散々な内容でしたが、席を立つ人は数名だけで、みんな最後までそれなりに楽しんでいました。

口コミも良く、初ハワイ島初日だったので期待していましたが、残念な結果に終わってしまいました。次回もう一回観るかは悩むなー

We sincerely apologize for the lack of accurate judgment and communication regarding the response during rainy weather. The decision on how to proceed is made by the banquet manager based on the weather conditions on the day. If the luau show is shortened due to rain, please check with nearby staff about the measures that will be taken. We may also suggest rescheduling options. Our staff will do their utmost to ensure you have an enjoyable experience, and we hope you will consider participating again in the future.

この度は、雨天時の判断、対応案内が的確にされておらず申し訳ございませんでした。
当日の天候を確認し、バンケット・マネージャーの判断で対応を決定いたしております。雨天によりルアウショーが短縮となってしまった場合は、お近くのスタッフへどのような対応が取られるのかご確認ください。日程変更などご提案させていただく場合もございます。お客様にお楽しみいただけるようスタッフ一同努めて参りますので、またの機会での参加をご検討いただけましたら幸いです。

It was like a jewelry box!☆ まるで宝石箱でした☆

Reviewed by: miki

After completing the 2012 Maui Marathon, I participated with my important partner. Initially, I was worried about whether I could enjoy it after running, but with Yamauchi-san's excellent guidance and the beautiful sunset, all the fatigue from the marathon disappeared.

Later, I couldn't stop crying at the starry sky, which looked like a treasure chest turned upside down against the pitch-black night sky. Thanks to the techniques of our guide Yamauchi-san, we miraculously got to see Saturn, which was truly amazing!

This was the first time I had such a wonderful experience, and I feel like it changed my perspective on life. I also fell in love with Maui, the sky, and the mountains thanks to the best tempura (laughs) and the fantastic guide. I'm really glad I could share this experience with my important partner. I want to participate again with someone special. Thank you, Yamauchi-san and all the staff!

2012年マウイマラソンを完走した後に大切なパートナーと参加しました。当初は走った後に楽しむことができるのかが不安でしたが、山内さんの最高のガイドと美しいサンセットでマラソンの疲労も吹っ飛びました。
その後、漆黒の夜空にまるで宝石箱をひっくりがえしたような星空に涙が止まりませんでした。
ガイドの山内さんのテクニックのおかげで、奇跡的に土星もみることができ本当に最高!でした。

このような素晴らしい体験は産まれて初めてで、人生観が変わった気がします。
また最高の天プラ(笑)と最高のガイドでマウイ、空、山を最高に好きになりました。
この経験を最高に大切なパートナーと参加できて本当によかったです。
また、大切な人と参加したいです。
山内さん、スタッフのみなさんありがとうございました。

When everything around you is enveloped in stars, for some reason, the time you are alive feels truly precious. There will be times when the two of you argue, but in this vast universe, it feels trivial. Please spend your time together happily.

見れるところ全てが星に包まれると、なぜか
生きている時間が本当に貴重に感じるものです。
お二人で喧嘩する時もこれからあるでしょう、、でも

Sunset and stargazing. サンセット&星空観測。

Reviewed by: 土佐っ子

The day after the Maui Marathon, I participated with my husband.

Aside from the sunset, I was moved by the countless stars we could see. We were even shown Saturn and Mars by Mr. Yamauchi, which we could never see in our everyday lives. I believe everyone who joined the tour was satisfied.

Also, there was a group of three lively and powerful ladies from Osaka who participated in the same tour, and it made me think that I want to stay energetic and positive no matter how old I get. Mr. Yamauchi also joked several times, "Osaka ladies are interesting. Is it Yoshimoto?" I fell in love with Maui.

マウイマラソンの翌日に主人と参加しました。

サンセットもさる事ながら、無数の星が見られた事に感動しました。
普段では絶対に見る事ができない、土星や火星も山内さんに見せて頂きました。
ツアーに参加されたみなさん、満足されたと思います。

また、同じツアーに大阪から参加されていたのおばさま三人組の方が気さくでパワフルで、私も何歳になっても元気で前向きにいたいなあ・・・と思いました。
山内さんも「大阪のおばちゃんは面白い。吉本ですか~?」と何度もつっこまれていましたね。
マウイ島、大好きになりました。

I look forward to seeing you again after next year's Maui Marathon. Haha!

That's unfortunate. 残念

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Since it was my first time participating, I couldn't understand everything well, so I guess it can't be helped. I was under the impression that I could go horseback riding, so I was disappointed that I couldn't. The advertised horseback riding hike sounded appealing, but I didn't know how to express that, and I would have liked to know how to make the most of my time at Hailewa. The duration of the stay was too long for someone who doesn't ride horses.

初めての参加で良く理解できていなかったので仕方がないのですが、乗馬ができると思い込んでいたので乗馬をすることができず残念でした。うたい文句の乗馬ハイキングが選べるとありましたが、どのように伝えればよいのか判らずハイレワでの時間の使い方を教えて欲しかった。 乗馬をしない人にとってあまりにも長い滞在時間でした。

A starry sky and the Milky Way. 満天の星空と天の川

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Last time, I couldn't make a reservation and joined an English tour. While the explanations and other aspects were the same, there was no luxurious service like having staff take group photos at the summit or a group photo with the night sky as a backdrop. A friend living in Hawaii mentioned they had been to the Onizuka Center for International Astronomy located halfway up Mauna Kea, but the sunset from the summit is truly magnificent. Since the center gets quite crowded with the general public visiting for stargazing, it was impossible to lie down and observe the stars at the observation point like in this tour. I was deeply moved by this incredibly luxurious experience. It was a new moon, so I was able to gaze at a sky full of stars and the Milky Way while lying down, and I realized once again that Earth is just one part of the universe by participating in this tour.

前回は予約が取れなくて英語のツアーに参加しました。説明その他は変わらないのですが、集合写真や頂上でのグループごとの写真や夜空をバックにした写真をスタッフの方が撮ってくれるような至れり尽くせりのサービスはありませんでした。
ハワイに住んでいる知人はマウナケア中腹にあるオニヅカ記念センターまでは行ったことがあるようでしたが、やはり山頂からのサンセットは素晴らしいですし(記念センターは一般の方も星空観測に訪れるので結構込んでいるため)今回のツアーのように、観測地点で寝転がって星空の観測は無理であるため、とっても贅沢な経験をさせてもらったと感激しました。丁度、新月だったので、本当に降るような満天の星空と天の川を寝転びながら眺め、地球って宇宙の一つなんだな。。。と、このツアーに参加して改めて感じました。

Haleakalā Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour ハレアカラ山頂 サンセット&星空観測ツアー

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Since I attended with a child under three years old, I was a bit worried about whether it would be okay, but I enjoyed the donuts, appreciated that they had prepared warm clothing for small children, and saw some unique clocks at the shops we visited. The beautiful sunset and starry sky were, of course, wonderful, but the guide's attention to detail was impressive. My child was also very happy.

Personally, I found the information shared during the drive (stories about life on Maui, discussions about Haleakalā, etc.) to be very interesting and engaging. I usually fall asleep in the car, but I didn't have a moment to doze off.

My mother, who joined me and is in her 60s, also said she had a great time. She was surprised by the specialized astronomy discussions (which were very easy to understand!) and the appearance of a professional telescope, as she thought we would just be looking at the stars. I had imagined simply gazing at the night sky as well (which is already beautiful), so I was surprised too.

They provided a Japanese bento box and tea for dinner, along with candy for dessert, making it a truly satisfying tour. Watching the sunset over the 360-degree horizon and the beautiful starry sky made me forget the hustle and bustle of life in Japan, and I felt refreshed.

I think $160 per person (including hotel pickup) is a great deal. I would love to participate again if I have the opportunity. Lastly, I want to thank our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, for all his help. Thank you very much!

3歳以下の子供を連れての参加だったため、本当に大丈夫かなと不安な面もありましたが、ドーナッツを頂いたり、防寒具を小さい子供用にまで準備して頂いていたり、立ち寄ったお店で珍しい時計を見せて頂いたり、きれいなサンセットや星空は無論素晴らしかったですが、細かいところまでガイドさんの心遣いが行き届いていました。本人も喜んでいました。
個人的には、道中、車中での案内(マウイ島の生活の話、ハレアカラ山の話など。。)もとても面白く、興味深くお聞きしました。私はいつもは車中では寝てしまうのですが、寝る間もなかったです。
一緒に参加した60代の母もとても楽しかったと喜んでいました。星空をただ見るだけと思っていたので、専門的な天文学のお話(ですがとてもわかりやすい!)や本格的な望遠鏡の登場には驚いたと言っていました。私もただ星空を見上げることを想像していた(それでも十分キレイですが。)のでびっくりしました。
夕食に日本食のお弁当とお茶、食後の飴まで用意して頂き、本当に大満足のツアーでした。360度の地平線に沈むサンセット、美しい星空を眺めて、日本での生活のめまぐるしさを忘れて、心があらわれるような気分でした。
これで一人160ドル(ホテル送迎付)はお安いと思います。また機会があればぜひ参加したいです。最後になりましたがガイドの山内さん、本当にお世話になりました。どうもありがとうございました。

I love that I resonate with children; I also adore clocks with moving dials. (laughs) Your child was very honest and straightforward. To prevent altitude sickness on the way, it's safer to have something in your stomach, even if it's just a little. When everyone sees this starry sky from the city, I'm sure a moment of reset will come at the summit. Please feel free to come back to Maui anytime. I'm looking forward to our reunion.

子供と波長が一緒なのか、自分も文字盤が動く仕掛け時計が大好きです。笑
とっても素直なお子さんでしたよね~。
行きのドーナッツも高山病にならないように、
少しでも何かお腹に入っていたほうが安全です。

It was fun! たのしかったです!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

We participated as a family. Since it was about wild dolphins, we were able to see a family of dolphins shortly after the boat started moving. At the front of the boat, we could also see many flying fish several times.

I wanted to see the dolphins a bit closer, but since snorkeling was the main activity this time, we traveled for about an hour.

For breakfast (light snacks), we could freely make our own bread and fruit, and the burgers for lunch were also delicious, along with fresh potato salad and vegetables. Maui chips were available as snacks, which was nice.

We could always have warm drinks, and there were many options for cold drinks. We could also have alcohol for an additional fee.

On the day of the trip, we were the only Japanese people, but the staff kindly supported us, which made us feel at ease. They lent us prescription masks, and the facilities were well-equipped with showers, noodle and glass-bottomed boards to see below. The snorkeling spot had high visibility, and the waves were at a safe height, allowing us to swim comfortably even in deeper areas.

On the way back, we were also able to see a turtle, and we were very satisfied.

家族で参加しました。
野生のイルカということで、船が走り出してすぐにイルカの家族を見ることができました。船の先端では、たくさんのトビウオも飛ぶ姿も何度も見ることできます。
イルカを、もう少し近くで見たいところでしたが、今回はシュノ―ケリングがメインなのでしばらく一時間ほど移動しました。

朝食(軽食)のパンやフルーツ、昼食のバーガーも自分たちで自由に作ることができ、ポテトサラダや野菜も新鮮でおいしくいただけました。マウイチップスもスナックとしてあり良かったです。

また温かい飲み物は常時飲むことができ、冷たい飲み物の種類も多かったです。追加料金でお酒も飲むことができました。


当日、日本人は自分達だけでしたが、スタッフにやさしくサポートしてもらえたので安心でした。マスクも度付きのを貸出してもらい。ヌードルやグラスで下が見えるビート版等、シャワー完備と充実しておりました。シュノーケルのスポットは、透明度が高く、深くても安心して泳げる波の高さでした。

帰りにカメも見ることができ、とても満足しています。

Mauna Kea is a unique mountain where you can drive up to an elevation of 4,205 meters. The view from there is completely different from the world below. I am always moved by it, no matter how many times I go.

ノースショア(ハレイワ)観光 ハレイワタウンで3時間の自由散策+ドールプランテーション!海辺の絶景を楽しめる乗馬付き(70分)プランあり<1日/送迎付き>

You can ride horses safely. 乗馬安全にできます。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Children around the age of elementary school can ride alone! The horses are trained for riding at the hotel, so it may not be thrilling for those seeking excitement. There aren’t many tours that allow you to ride a horse while enjoying views of the ocean, so I recommend it for that reason as well. The horses walk in a line, and there’s hardly any running, so it may not satisfy those who want to gallop. At the end, you can hand over your camera to have photos taken. It's a memorable tour!

小学生年長くらいの子供であれば1人で乗れちゃいます!
ホテルで飼いならされた乗馬用の馬なので、スリルを望む人には物足りないです。
馬に乗って海を見ながらと言うツアーはあまりないので、そういった意味でもオススメです。
一列に並び馬が歩くのが基本で、ほぼ走ることはないので馬で走り去りたい人には物足りないです。
最後に自分のカメラを渡すと写真撮ってもらえます。
思い出になるツアーです!

North Shore & Horseback Riding Plan ノースショア&乗馬プラン

Reviewed by: ぶらいあん

I participated in a tour called "Activity Paradise Tour" in North Shore (Haleiwa), where we could choose from various activities like horseback riding and hiking.

We signed up as a group of 12, with 7 people opting for horseback riding, 3 for free time, and 2 for the pineapple train. However, by making a request in advance, we were all able to join the same bus.

Since we were a large group of 12, we had a private vehicle, and thanks to the guide's arrangements, we all got to ride the pineapple train unexpectedly, while those who chose free time were guided to the beach and other attractions, allowing for quite a bit of freedom in our activities.

Our guide was Japanese and provided various explanations about the plants and birds, making the ride lively with interesting stories, which made for a very enjoyable time.

We went horseback riding, and there were children aged 5, 9, 10, and 11 participating. Initially, I was a bit worried, but the horses were very smart and we had a lot of fun riding. Experiencing the wind and scenery as we rode through the valley seemed to leave a strong impression on the children, and it became their favorite memory from this trip.

Next time, I would like to try coastal walks and another horseback riding plan.

ノースショア(ハレイワ)観光 プラン(乗馬・ハイキング他)を選べる・アクティビティ天国ツアーに参加しました。
12人で申込み、7人が乗馬、3人がフリータイム、2人がパイナップル列車、で申し込みましたが、事前にお願いすることで、全員同じバスでの参加になりました。
12人の大人数であったためか、車1台貸切となり、案内いただいたガイドの方の計らいで、急遽全員パイナップル列車に乗ってみたり、フリータイムメンバにはビーチや観光に案内いただいたりと、かなり自由行動をさせていただきました。
ガイドの方は日本人の方で、草木や鳥に至るまでいろいろ説明いただき、面白い話で車内盛り上がったりと、大変楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
我々は乗馬をしましたが、5歳/9歳/10歳11歳の子供が参加しており、当初は少し不安でしたが、馬が大変利口で楽しく乗馬ができました。渓谷を抜ける風や風景を見たり肌で楽しみなが大きな馬に乗って、子供たちにとってはすごくインパクトがあったようで、今回の旅行での一番の思い出になったようです。
今度は海岸散策や別の乗馬プランも試してみたいと思いました。

Oahu Island Guided Tour, Waimea Waterfall Swim & Dole Pineapple Farm

Definitely a day to remember !

Reviewed by: David & Carol NZ

Having taken the Grand Circle Tour on a previous holiday we decided to do it again. Keow our driver and guide made the second time so enjoyable. His vast knowledge and information along with his friendly personality made it a day to remember.
Giving us photo taking stops along the way and interspersing his commentary with his own humour kept us well amused
It was a long day so maybe not so suitable for famililes with young children but for all other ages well worth considering as it gave the opportunity to see many areas that we would have otherwise missed , the beautiful beaches, magnificent views and interesting places. These along with our very special guide definitely made this a day we will always remember.

Diamond Head Crater Hiking Tour with Reserved Tickets & Shuttle from Waikiki

:)

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

It good. However, we didn't really hear the history of the diamond head. Unless we just have to read the posters. The guy at the gate was screaming at everyone bec they have to pay for the entrance fee. If I didn't tell him i got the package deal from this webstie he would have double charged me. They need to come-up with another system collecting entrance fees.

Beach horseback riding 海辺乗馬

Reviewed by: れなまま

I went horseback riding at Turtle Bay. The guide's explanations on the way to Haleiwa were very interesting, with local insights that made the journey feel shorter. Before we started riding, I got to touch a pony, but unfortunately, I was lightly (?) bitten by the affectionate pony, and even after 4-5 days, the bruise is still painful, which is disappointing. I really appreciated that they asked for our preference on whether to have lunch early or late. The main horseback riding experience was enjoyable while overlooking the ocean.

タートルベイの乗馬に行きました。
ハレイワに向かうガイドの方の途中の説明は、現地の方ならではのお話もあってとても興味深く聞き、到着まで早く感じました。
乗馬開始前にポニーに触れさせてもらったのですが、甘えん坊のポニーに軽く(?)噛まれて、4~5日経った今も痣になって痛いのが残念です。
昼食の時間は、早めにするか遅めにするかのリクエストを聞いていただいて大変助かりました。
メインの乗馬も海を見ながら楽しめました。

Thank you for participating in the choose-your-activity beach horseback riding. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your time and the horseback riding experience on the North Shore. However, we are sorry to hear about the incident with the horse (pony) on that day and are concerned about your well-being. Is the bruise gone now? We hope that the area where you were bitten is healing well from Hawaii. We look forward to your next visit.

この度は選べるアクティビティ、海辺乗馬にご参加いただきありがとうございます。
ノースショアでの時間、乗馬体験をお楽しみいただき嬉しく思っております。しかし、当日は馬(ポニー)とのアクシデントがあったとのこと残念に思い、心配いたしております。現在は痣は消えておりますでしょうか?噛まれてしまった箇所が回復していることをハワイより願っております。またのお越しをお待ちいたしております。

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

Wonderful, Mauna Kea tour. 素晴らしい、マウナケアツアー。

Reviewed by: yoshio

We participated as a couple on August 21, 2012. Our guide was Shigeru Yamamoto, who provided clear explanations with helpful examples. The highlight was undoubtedly the sunset at the summit, along with the constellation explanations and telescope viewing. Watching the refreshing sunset while wearing a down jacket to keep warm was a heartwarming experience. One should not speak of Mauna Kea without witnessing this. The stars spread across the sky were breathtaking. The precise stars and constellations pointed out with a laser pointer, along with the clear explanations, were fantastic. We also got to see Saturn's rings through the telescope that was set up. Shigeru Yamamoto took great group photos of all participants against the backdrop of the starry sky, as well as individual photos, which were later available for free download online, making for a wonderful keepsake. This is the most highly recommended tour.

2012.8.21に夫婦で参加しました。ガイドは山本茂さんで、丁寧で例えを用いたわかりやすい解説をしてくれました。何と言っても素晴らしいのが、?山頂でのサンセット、?星座解説&天体望遠鏡でした。?寒さ防ぐダウンジャケットを着て見る清々しいサンセットは心洗う感動でした。?これを見ずしてマウナケアをかたるべし。満天に広がる星。レイザーポインターで示す的確な星や星座は、わかりやすい解説とともに最高でした。設置した天体望遠鏡で土星の輪っかも見せてもらいました。満天に広がる星々をバックにした参加者全員の集合写真と個々のまとまりの参加者写真を山本茂ガイドがいいデジカメで撮ってくれて、後にウェブ上から無料ダウンロードできたのも良い記念になりました。最もイチオシのツアーです。

The sunset was beautiful. サンセットはきれいでした。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated last September.
The weather looked ominous around Saddle Road, and I was worried, but the sunset at the summit was truly beautiful. The sun sank into the sea of clouds in an instant, and I wished I could have watched it a little longer.
During the stargazing afterward, there was unexpected rain... Still, I was moved when I briefly saw the Milky Way and the stars. Unfortunately, the rain didn't stop, so the stargazing was disappointing.
I definitely want to go back to the Big Island to see the beautiful starry sky again.

昨年9月に参加しました。
サドルロードあたりから、雲行きがあやしくお天気が心配でしたが、山頂に着いてからのサンセットは本当にきれいでした。夕日が雲海に沈んでいくのはあっという間で、もう少し長く眺めていたかったです。
その後の星空観測のときには、まさかの雨・・・。それでも、一瞬天の川や星が見えた時には感動しました。でもなかなか雨はやまずに星空観測は残念でした。
もう一度、きれいな星空を見るために必ずハワイ島に行きたいです。

Enjoyed it to the fullest! 満喫!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

It was a very enjoyable tour. Since it was just my first-grade daughter and me traveling together, we opted for taxi transportation instead of renting a car for sightseeing. My daughter, who loves horses, has been riding since she was three, but being a flag bearer for 90 minutes on her own was a new experience! This is a tour that you can't have in Japan. On top of that, we were able to visit sightseeing spots, and both mother and child had a great time! My daughter seemed happy to gain some confidence as well. I highly recommend this tour! Next time, I want to go horseback riding by the seaside!

とっても満喫できるツアーでした。一年生の娘と2人旅行ということもあり、個人で遠出&観光できるレンタカーではなくタクシー移動。お馬さんが大好きな娘は引き馬の経験は3歳から、でも乗馬という一人で90分も旗手になるなんて!日本では経験の出来ないツアー。その上、観光名所も押さえて下さり母子ともに満喫出来ました!娘も何か自信を持つことが出来たように嬉しそうでした。お勧めのツアーです!次回は海辺を乗馬したいです!
