Hawaii
These zips were high speed!!! Really had a great time flying through Hawaiian forests!
It was good to go early as by the end we were sweating, couldn't imagine it being any later!
Lots of information given by the guide - it was a great way to step away from the hustle and bustle Waikiki provides.
The fresh air in Haleakala is so wonderful to breathe in while zooming down! Great quality bikes as well- no issues.
The river cruise was great with the Tour guides giving us the history of the island and river along with local entertainment. the Fren Grotto was also excellent as it was Our 50th Anniversary and the Grotto topped it off.
This was a pretty nice and easy way to spend an afternoon. It was quite warm but the breeze on the boat was lovely. We went with young kids and it was a nice time. Would recommend!
This was a brilliant adventure, from the moment you get in line to enter and get your lei, to when you find yourself on stage dancing the Hula. The activities are great with a number of free cultural classes in the “kitchen” and around the grounds. Great photo opportunities as the sun sets, with great shots of the ocean, the city if Honolulu, and the mountain ranges.
I would recommend this for any other couple, or family regardless if there are or are not children.
Such a positive great fun experience! Our Guides Lucas and ( sorry blanked on his name, not his fault its mine I'm Old and its been week :)). They were safety first and fun second, but definitely not short on the fun!
Nice relaxing ride down the Wailua River with a short, easy walk to the Grotto. Learning about the history of the boats and the area was very special, as well as having the Hawaiian music and dancing on the boat. The pilot was witty and made a couple of cute jokes. Definitely recommend for families or as an alternative for more strenous activities, or just as a nice cool break from the hot days.
My first time on Maui. I wasn't confident about driving to the summit of Haleakalā on my own, so I booked this tour. In the end, it was definitely the right decision to join this tour. Throughout the tour, Yamapi's thoughtful care was comforting, and I truly enjoyed watching the sunset and the starry sky. The poke bowl while enjoying the breathtaking views was also fantastic. I learned a lot about Maui, which became helpful tips for the rest of my trip. I would definitely like to participate again when I go back to Maui.
初めてのマウイ島。自力でレンタカーでハレアカラ登頂は自身なく、このツアーを予約しました。結果、このツアーに参加して大正解でした。
ツアーの間終始やまぴーさんの心遣いが心地よく、本当に楽しくサンセットと星空を鑑賞できました。
絶景を眺めながらのポケ丼も最高でした。
マウイ島の事もたくさん教えてくださり、その後の旅行のヒントになりました。
またマウイに行く時はぜひ参加したいです。

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Yoshi was knowledgeable and a fantastic guide. There are coats and blankets to use once you are at the top. Yoshi sets up chairs, takes pictures, provides hot tea or coffee and donuts, and does just the right amount of talking that provides information without disturbing your time to enjoy the whole experience. A packed dinner is necessary although we made a stop at the Kula Marketplace where food was available to purchase before getting to Haleakala. We are so glad we did this tour!!!
In June, I traveled with my parents in their 60s and two children aged 0 and 4, totaling seven people. We had previously gone to Hawaii before COVID and used an HIS tour, which included some options. At that time, it was very easy to get around Waikiki, so I decided to book it again this time, even though it was expensive.
This time, our hotel was a bit far from the center of Waikiki, so we had to walk a little from the bus stop, but even without that, it felt like there were fewer buses than before. As a result, we mainly used the pink trolley that we could ride with a JCB card, so it didn't feel very cost-effective.
Also, even when we were at the bus stop on time, the buses came quite late, which was a bit concerning. Additionally, my parents in their 60s participated in the East Oahu Scenic Line, which wasn't available before COVID, and they said it was very good. That bus took about three hours for a round trip, so they enjoyed the scenery without having to walk.
It might be good to plan the schedule and destinations carefully, but since we had small children, I thought renting a car might have been a better option.
６月に60代の親と0歳4歳の子供も含めて7人での利用でした。コロナ以前にハワイに行った際、HISのツアーで行ったためオプションでついてました。
その際とてもワイキキでの移動がしやすかったので今回高かったけど申し込みました。
今回はワイキキの中心からホテルが離れていることもありましたのでバス停留所から少し歩きましたが、それはなしとしてもバスの本数が以前よりすくなくなっていた気がしました。結果JCBのカードをもっていたら乗れるピンクトロリーしかあまり利用しなかったので、あまりお得感はなかったです。
あと、時間通りに停留所にいてもかなりおくれてくるのでそれも少し気になりました。
あとコロナ以前にはなかったら東オアフ絶景ラインに60代の親のみ参加しましたが、それはとてもよかったらしいです。そのバスが1周３時間程だったので、歩くこともなく景色を堪能できてよかったらしいです。
しっかり時刻や行き先を計画して利用するとよいかもですが、小さい子供もいたので、レンタカーのほうがよかったかもとおもいました。

The family enjoyed the vacation and the tour was a very big educational part of it.
There were some places in the suburbs where it was hard to figure out where to catch the trolley, so it would be great if there were signs at the trolley stops or if I could check via an app.
郊外等でどこで乗るのかわかりづらい場所もあったのでトロリー乗場の看板もしくはアプリで確認出来ると嬉しいです

This was a great experience. The performers and all staff were professional and made sure we had a good time. Food portions were perfect so that we weren't super stuffed but full enough. Beautiful food presentation. Hats off to the culinary team and chef!!!! This was a memorable experience and the interactive dance for everyone at the end was a perfect way to end the dinner cruise. Only one recommendation would be to have air conditioning in the boat. Other than that, the night was amazing!!
We had Cousin Elaine and she went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and enjoyed our tour. She taught us a lot about the culture and history of the islands. She made the tour more personal by remembering our names and by calling us her ohana. This was one of the best tours I’ve been on, we got to stop and see a lot of the northern part of the island.
Tour was great from start to finish. Yoshi was kind and knowledgeable. He thought of everything from hot tea, candy, and Krispy cream donuts. It was a very windy evening and he changed up plans on the fly to get us out of the wind and get us the best stargazing experience he could. I would definitely book a tour with Yoshi again.
I had a wonderful experience on this tour. Thanks to our guide, Tad, the tour became even more enjoyable. This is a tour that I definitely recommend experiencing when you visit the Big Island.
このツアーで素晴らしい体験ができました。
そして、ガイドのタッドさんのお陰で
ツアーがより楽しいものになりました。
ハワイ島に来たら必ず体験して欲しいツアーです。

It was a tour with an English guide, but they kindly explained things in Japanese as well! You have to ask for water and hot drinks yourself to get them. The sunset and starry sky were absolutely amazing on this tour! If I come back to the Big Island, I will definitely ask Masashi Nature School again!
英語ガイドのツアーでしたが、日本語を交えて説明してくれたり、とても親切でした！
お水と温かい飲み物は自分から欲しいと言わないと貰えません。
sunsetも星空も最高すぎるツアーでした！
またハワイ島に来たらマサシネイチャースクールさんにお願いします！

Overall outstanding!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome view!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The sea of clouds and the incredibly beautiful sunset created a wonderful starry sky. The scale and scenery were impressive. The driver guide, Tad, who provided guidance in Japanese, was excellent.
雲海と最高に綺麗な夕日に素晴らしい星空でした。スケールや景色も感度しました。日本語でも案内してくたドライバー案内係のタッドは最高でした。

One of the reasons I came to the Big Island for the first time was to see the starry sky! It far exceeded my expectations, and I was able to see a sky filled with stars. It was just July 7th, Tanabata, with Orihime and Hikoboshi, and the Milky Way was clearly explained by the tour guide using a laser pointer, making for a very satisfying stargazing tour. ^_^ Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take good photos of the starry sky, so I will only share the sunset photos. I'm sorry.
初めてハワイ島に来た目的の一つが星空を見る！でしてが、予想を遥かに上回り
星が降ってくるような星空を見ることができました。
ちょうど七月七日 七夕の日で、織姫に彦星、天の川も
レーザーポインターで分かりやすくツアーの方が説明してくれて大満足の星空観察ツアーでした^_^
残念ながら上手く星空は写真が撮れず、サンセットの
写真のみ掲載します。御免なさい。

Fantastic tour of an amazing place. You see lots of incredible scenery and see where tons of your favorite movies were filmed. The tour is a good balance of learning about the ranch and having a great time driving the side by sides.
They definitely prioritize safety and make sure everyone is doing what they should be in order to have a good time.
You will get dirty from driving on the dusty roads. If you wear contacts be sure to use the goggles they provide to keep the dust out of your eyes.
They also provide a bandana which helps keep the dust our of your mouth/nose.
Yoshi was a fantastic guide that provided us with such a memorable experience. He supplied us with coats and blankets and snacks so that we were comfortable. He also showed us constellations and stars through his telescope. If you are fascinated by the stars you will never forget this experience. Must try!
The weather was favorable, and it was comfortable at the summit with light winds. At the top, we enjoyed a beautiful sunset, followed by a sky full of stars. The guide communicated with the group in both English and Japanese along the way, which made it very enjoyable.
天候に恵まれ、山頂でも風が弱く過ごしやすかったです。
山頂では綺麗なサンセット、そしてその後満天の星が見れました。
ガイドの方が道中も英語と日本語両方でグループに話しかけていて、とても楽しかったです。

We really enjoyed the trip to the Canyon, very knowledgeable driver and the scenery was magnificent. We did all the main sights in the four hour time. Good value for money. Back to the cruise ship in time for a late lunch and swim. Highly recommend.
My guests from Japan and I had a great time! Our tour guide was so funny & knowledgeable. Weather and the views of the windward side of Oahu were beautiful! A visit to Kualoa Ranch is a must when visiting Hawai’i.
The long journey from the hotel to Haleakalā was enjoyable with breaks along the way. We were introduced to various types of poke at Foodland, which we enjoyed after the tour at the hotel. Upon arriving at Haleakalā, I was excited by the magnificent scenery. They set up special seating for us to watch the sunset, and the colors of the sky changed beautifully to orange, blue, and green. I can still remember the gradient of the sky while waiting for the stars to appear as night fell. After a while, the starry sky was breathtaking—so many stars! I was amazed by the stunning view and was moved when they taught us about various constellations using a telescope. It was a great time to see the Southern Cross in the night sky, and capturing photos with the stars was also an emotional experience. I'm creating a memory album. My husband and I have been to Hawaii many times, but this was the first time with someone who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, and they were truly moved. Thank you, Mr. Yamauchi. I will visit Maui again!
滞在ホテルからハレヤカラ山までの長い道のり 休憩入れて楽しく到着
途中フードランドでポキいろいろ種類紹介して頂いてツアー後ホテルで食べて美味しかった
ハレヤカラ山到着してからも壮大な景色にワクワク
特別な場所でイス設置して頂いて
夕日を見て空の色が変わりオレンジ ブルー グリーン素敵でした
日が暮れて星空待つ間も空のグラデーション今でも思い出せます
しばらく待っての星空 こんなに星☆あるの？とビックリの満天の星 天体望遠鏡でいろいろな星座教えて頂いて感動でした 滞在時期 南十字星が見えるグッドタイミング 夜空で星との撮影も感動
思い出のアルバム作成しています
夫とは何度もハワイに行ってますが
今回初めてハワイに行く方と一緒だったので本当に感動されていました
Yamauchiさんありがとうございました
またマウイ島行きます☆
