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>

It was amazing. 最高でした

Reviewed by: 坪井昌造

About eight years ago, I participated in a stargazing tour. As I was visiting Maui again after a long time, my entire family unanimously wanted to join once more, so we made a reservation.

On the day of the tour, there were some thin clouds, and I was worried about whether we would be able to see the stars, but when we looked up at the observation point, we were greeted with a sky full of stars. The beauty of the stars seen through the telescope was, of course, breathtaking, but I was truly moved by Mr. Yamauchi's explanations and stories.

During dinner, there was a question about what food you would want to eat as your last meal in life, and I can say without hesitation that if I could only visit one place before I die, it would be to see this starry sky. Of course, with Mr. Yamauchi's explanations... Thank you!

8年ほど前に参加させていただいた星空観測ツアー。久しぶりにマウイを訪れるにあたり、家族全員一致でもう一度参加したいとの思いで予約しました。
当日は若干うす雲が広がり、星空が見えるかどうか気がかりでしたが、いざ観測地点で見上げると一面の星空。
天体望遠鏡を通じてみた星々の美しさはもちろんでしたが、山内さんの解説や話の内容にただただ感激のひとときでした。
食事中に、一生のうちで最後に食べたい食べ物は何?などという質問がありましたが、死ぬまでに一カ所だけ行けるとしたら、文句なしにこの星空を見に行きたいと言えます。もちろん、山内さんの解説付きで…
ありがとう!

Thank you! Time flies, doesn't it? I was surprised to see how much your child has grown, and it makes me realize that I'm getting older too. (laughs)
But I'm truly happy about our reunion! I hope we can meet again. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

感謝です!光陰矢のごとしとはこの事ですね。お子様もだいぶ大きくなられて驚きの再会で、自分も歳をとる訳です。笑
でも本当に再会が嬉しいです!またお会いできることを願っています。心からありがとうございました。

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

What an Awesome Show.

Reviewed by: kevin gaines

Chief's Luau at Sea Life Park was definitely one of the highlights of my tour's while visiting Honolulu! The staff from beginning to end was just great. Chief was an incredible man and host and the music, the dancing, the ladies just made the evening something to never forget! The setting at Sea Life Park was great. You look in one direction you see the ocean, and another direction you have the mountain back drop. I totally enjoyed this show and food from beginning to end. Chief is the man, what he and the staff did with the fire torches at the end of the show was a nice way to conclude the program. I know there are a lot nice luau's being offered in Honolulu, but this one right here is right up there with all the others. Great show and I had a wonderful time and evening!

Very satisfied. 大満足

Reviewed by: YUME

On July 14th, which was exactly between the new moon and the full moon, we were able to see a wonderful sunset with no wind. This was my second trip to Maui, and I traveled with my family (including my 87-year-old mother), but this tour was attended by my six siblings. Since we used a car for the entire itinerary, there wasn't much walking involved, and I thought my mother could have joined us. I was moved by the amazing sunset and the romantic starry sky, and I was very satisfied with the explanations and personality of our tour guide, Yamapi. I would like to participate again during the new moon next time. I absolutely recommend it.

7月14日、この日は新月と満月のちょうど中間にあたり、風もなくとても素晴らしい
サンセットを見ることができました。今回マウイは二回目、旅行はファミリー(87歳の母を含む)でいきましたがこのツアーは兄弟姉妹6人で参加しました。全行程車利用でしたのでそんなに歩くところもなく、これなら母も参加すればよかったと思いました。素晴らしいサンセットとロマンあふれる星空に感動、ツアーガイドのヤマピーさんの説明や人柄等とても満足のいくものでした。次回は新月の時にまた参加したいと思っています。
絶対おすすめです。

One of the features of Maui All Stars is that it can accommodate everyone from the elderly to children as young as three years old. Mauna Kea on the Big Island of Hawaii has an elevation of 4,200 meters, so it is generally risky for children to go up. However, Haleakalā is 3,055 meters, so if you ascend slowly, there is no need to worry at all. All parts of the journey can be done by car, which is reassuring, and there are flush toilets available at both 2,100 and 3,000 meters within the national park. Next time, please be sure to bring your mother along!

お年寄りから3歳からのお子様でも参加できるのが、マウイオールスターズの特徴です。ハワイ島マウナケアー山は標高4200メートルなので
お子様が原則上がる事はリスクですが、ハレアカラは3055メートルなのでゆっくり登れば全く心配はありません。
全ての工程を車で行けますので安心ですし、国立公園に入った2100.3000メートルも水洗トイレが設置してあります。
次回は是非お母さんもお連れしてくださいね!

I was worried about seasickness, but it wasn't a big deal and the boat was comfortable. The food was tastier than I expected. I was lucky to see whales multiple times and was able to take great photos. The onboard cultural programs were diverse, and I enjoyed participating in activities like lei making and hula dance lessons.

We had a blast!, great food, all you can eat crab legs. great service and great show! If you're still deciding what dinner cruise you should take, here's your answer! You can't go wrong! My suggestion take this event as your grand finale of your vacation, probably on the last day of your trip.

My wife and I participated together. We enjoyed welcome drinks and appetizers on the top deck, and after taking a commemorative photo with the captain, we were guided to our seats. The staff was very polite and accommodating in Japanese, and the course meal was excellent. When we went out to the deck during sunset and fireworks, the staff kindly took photos for us.

Stargazing☆彡 星空観測☆彡

Reviewed by: ミランダ

Since I'm going to Maui, I thought I had to visit Haleakalā, so I participated! I was torn between the sunrise and sunset, but I chose the sunset because it was easy with a departure time of 4:00 PM and I could see the starry sky.

As a result, it was even better than I expected! I was moved to tears by the beautiful sunset seen from above the clouds. The highlight was definitely our guide, Yamauchi. I would want to request Yamauchi again when I come back!

One thing to note is that it gets very cold, so make sure to dress warmly, and I think it's better to go when it's cloudy and when the moon is not full! The moonlight can make it difficult to see the beautiful starry sky!

 マウイに行くからにはハレアカラにいかなきゃと思い参加しました! サンライズとサンセットで迷ったんですが、星空まで見れて、出発時間が16:00と楽だったのでえらびました。
結果、予想以上にとてもよかったです! 雲の上からみる綺麗なサンセットに感激して涙もでました。とにかくよかった点はガイドのヤマウチさんです。
またきたときには、またヤマウチさんにお願いしたいくらいです!
注意点としては、とても寒いのでしっかりとした防寒をすることと、曇りの時と、月が満月以外がいいとおもいます!月の明りでせっかくの星空が見えにくくなるそうです!

Departing in the afternoon is definitely easier, and since you're on vacation, please feel free to sleep in the next day! (laughs) For some reason, Maui is a place where you can really sleep soundly. The air is nice and it's a quiet place. I look forward to our next reunion.

Lots of fun! Teens enjoyed show.

Reviewed by: First Time in Hawaii

Wasn't sure how we would like this since we don't normally like touristy things, but we really enjoyed the show. Food was good and I would recommend paying the premium upgrade amount as it helped us skip the line and then sit up front to watch the show. My son who just turned 14 really liked the activities and the show -- he even tried poi. My daughter who is 18 enjoyed the show -- especially the fire dance. Overall, the hosts and staff were very nice and accommodating. The performers were wonderful and even funny at times. I would highly recommend this event if you have never been to a Luau.

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Beautiful views from the boat, areas on boat need work

Reviewed by: Amber

My grandmother and I chose this as something different to do from the sightseeing and beach time we had been enjoying. The transportation is great even for those of us that are familiar with the island, and well worth the additional cost. The seating area is packed and truly would be more enjoyable with fewer people crammed in. The food and service were far better than expected and the "All You Can Eat" crab truly lives up to the name. The boat from an external view is beautiful and makes a striking appearance out on the open ocean. On the decks there are areas that could be maintained better, especially the areas that food is served from and are in plain view of guests. The top deck is amazing for catching sight of the city line and would be a great place to spend a romantic evening with a significant other. Overall this is something that I am glad we experienced and would be willing to take others on.

I had the best memories of any tour I've experienced so far. Of course, it's thanks to our guide. I'm really glad I chose this Haleakalā tour with Maui All Stars. They took great care of us. To prevent altitude sickness, they made sure to take breaks while enjoying the journey to the summit, and I didn't experience any of the health issues I had feared. I truly enjoyed it from the bottom of my heart. I want my husband to experience this wonderful feeling as well. Someday, I definitely want to share this view with him and enjoy the moment together. Of course, with Maui All Stars...

今まで、経験したツアーの中で最高の思い出ができました。もちろん、ガイドさんのおかげもあります。「このハレアカラのツアーがマウイオールスターズ」で良かった。本当によくして頂きました。高山病を防ぐために数回に分けて楽しみながら休憩を入れて山頂へ連れて行ってくださり、恐れていた体調不良も無く、心から楽しめました。この素晴らしい感動を主人にもしてもらいたい。また、いつか必ずこの景色を夫と感動を分かち合いながら眺めたいと思います。もちろん、マウイオールスターズで・・・

Thank you for spending such a long time with us. Even if you go by car, it's 3,000 meters, so taking it easy is the best way to go. If you start running at the summit, it can be quite challenging. Everyone always ends up in a "Love Wagon" state (laughs) and gets along well, so we will continue to aim for enjoyable tours in the future.

こちらこそ長い時間お付き合い頂き感謝です。車で行くにしても3000メートルですから、のんびり行くのが一番ですよね~。山頂で走ったりしたら大変な所なのです。

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>

It was a fun show. 楽しいショーでした

Reviewed by: おけいちゃん

I read in reviews that there would be a long line, so I arrived more than 30 minutes early, but there was already quite a queue. I was a bit worried because it was drizzling, but by the time we were allowed in, it had cleared up, which was a relief. Once seated, all the announcements were in English, so I didn't understand much and just followed the movements of others. At first, we passed by the food line to get drinks like Mai Tai and fruit punch, while others were happily chatting, dancing, and checking out the whole roasted pig. I couldn't join in the conversation due to my limited English, which left me feeling a bit bored. About an hour later, everyone finally started to get their meals, so the two of us went to get ours. There were local dishes like ahi poke and poi, making for quite an enjoyable meal. The luau show that finally started featured a person dressed as King Kamehameha and various dances, and I thought it was well done, just as the reviews had said. As an impatient Japanese person, I felt the pace was a bit slow, but I came to understand that it allowed for a more leisurely enjoyment. I believe it was a show worth the price.

クチコミでかなり並ぶと書いてあったので受付時間より30分以上早く行ったけれど既にかなりの行列になっていた。少し雨がぱらついていたので心配だったけれど入場の頃にはなんとかやんでホッ。席についてからの案内は全て英語なのでよく分からないまま他の人を動きを見ながら最初は食べ物の並んだところを通り過ぎてマイタイとかフルーツポンチなどの飲み物を取りにいき、他の人は楽しくおしゃべりしたり踊ったり豚の丸焼の見学にいったり楽しんでいるけど、こちらはカタコトの英語で会話には加われず、暇を持てあましてしまった。1時間くらいしてからやっとみんなが食事を取り始めたので、私たち二人も取りにいった。アヒポキやポイなど郷土料理もあってなかなか楽しい食事だった。やっと始まったルアウショーはカメハメハ大王に扮した人の入場や各種のダンスなど評判どおりなかなかよくできていたと思う。せっかちな日本人にとってはあまりにも流れが悠長だと感じたが、それはそれでゆっくり楽しめるということでもあると納得。値段に見合ったショーだと思う。

First Whale 初クジラ

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Last May, when I went to Hawaii, I went on a dolphin tour, and this time I decided to go see whales. I went this year. The boat was large, and I didn't feel seasick, so it was comfortable. We were able to see whales off the coast of Waikiki. We caught glimpses of their backs a few times. Unfortunately, we didn't see any jumps or big tails, but I was moved by my first encounter with whales. If I get the chance again, I would like to challenge myself to go in the middle of winter.

昨年5月にハワイに行った時イルカのツアーに行って次はクジラを見に行こうということで今年行ってきました。船は大きくて船酔いもなく快適。ワイキキ沖でクジラを見ることができました。背中の一部が数回。流石にジャンプとか大きな尻尾は見ることはできませんでしたが、初めてのクジラ遭遇には感動しました。また機会があれば、真冬にチャレンジしたいと思います。

Reviewed by: funa

Fortunately, the weather was nice (though the wind was really strong), and we were able to see a few whales. However, it was indeed difficult to capture them with my iPhone. In the photos, they appear distant, but in reality, they were a bit closer. Filming was also challenging because it was hard to predict where the whales would appear. I missed several opportunities to actually see them because I was so focused on filming. At first, there were announcements indicating the direction to look, but by the time we were heading back, there were no announcements. Just before we arrived, we spotted a whale near the shore, but it's unclear how many people noticed it. There were free activities like lei-making and ukulele lessons on the first floor of the boat, so most people participated. My sister and I didn't join and were on the second or third floor, just gazing out at the sea. I think it was mentioned that the Star of Honolulu tends to sway, but I didn't get seasick. Since the meal wasn't included, we freely ate what we had bought at the supermarket. To be honest, I wished I could have seen more whales jumping out of the water. Lastly, I believe the shuttle service would have cost an extra $12, so we took The Bus number 19 to the event location. On the way back, there was a bus stop very close by, so we were able to return smoothly. (The return bus also had signs indicating stops at Ala Moana Center and Waikiki Beach.)

幸い天気にも恵まれ(風は凄く強かったが)クジラも少しみれた。ただiPhoneで撮影するのはやはり難しい。写真で見ると離れて見えるが実際はもう少し距離が近かった。ビデオ撮影もどこから出現してくるかわからないので、撮影が厳しかった。また撮影に夢中で実際に目でみる機会を何度か失ってしまった。始めのうちはアナウンスで何時の方向に見えると教えてくれるが、帰る頃はアナウンスがない。到着間際に岸の近くにクジラを発見した。ただ気づいた人がどれだけいるかは不明。無料でレイ作りやウクレレなど船の1Fで開催していたので、大抵の人たちが参加していた。私たち姉妹は参加せず2Fだったか3Fだったか?!にいて、海をぼーっと眺めていた。スターオブホノルル号は揺れやすいと掲載されていた気がするが、船酔いもしなかった。食事付きでなかったので、スーパーで買って来た物を自由に食べていた。欲を言えばもっとクジラが海の上に飛び跳ねてる姿を見たかったのが本音です。最後に送迎付きだとプラス$12くらいするはずだったので、ザ・バスの19番に乗って開催場所まで行った。帰りもすぐ近くにバス亭があるので、スムーズに帰れた。(帰りのバスもアラモアナセンターやワイキキビーチ行きとバスに表示が出ていたはず)

  • 船に乗る前

  • まだ他の方がデッキに上がってくる前

  • iPhoneでは厳しい。。

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

Hands down best luau I've ever been to

Reviewed by: Kendall

My wife, 11 month old daughter, and I got the chance to attend the Chief’s Luau at Sea Life Park, under the Paradise Package. I usually don’t expect much from the food and drinks at these sorts of events, but I was pleasantly surprised. The food was very good, especially considering that it is a buffet, and the drinks were not watered down. In regards to the show, it was absolutely fantastic. The cast performed dances from the various Polynesian Islands and the entire time, the Chief is telling jokes (the jokes contain a bit of innuendo) and making sure everyone is having a good time. There is a reason Chief Sielu performs all over the island, practically every day: not only is he a very skilled performer, but he is absolutely hilarious. I will definitely be coming again. Please note that the cast does pull members of the audience for different parts of the show, however, it is not the run-of-the-mill “let’s all dance at the end” type thing, they are actually part of the festivities.

  • We were greeted with kukui nut leis, and we made a palm frond headband

  • The imu ceremony

  • Getting ready to start

  • Expert musicians

  • Showing off the pig

  • The imu before it is opened

  • One of the pre-show activities is a hula lesson!

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Great food and show

Reviewed by: Kendall

My wife, 11 month old daughter, and boarded the Star of Honolulu, on the One Star package. The night started with a Mai Tai, which was quite strong (coming as a surprise to me as in my experience, “welcome drinks” tend to be very watered down), and we were taken to our table with our appetizers ready and waiting for us. The food was fantastic! I’m going to be honest; I had low expectations for the food. All you can eat crab on a ship, generally does not mean “high quality” to me. And boy was I proven wrong. The crab especially was very tasty, and my wife and I definitely took advantage of the “all you can eat” description. The show was also very fun to watch, with examples of dances of different styles from around Polynesia. The service from our waiter, Chad, was excellent as well: my water was never empty, empty plates were taken as soon as I was finished, and the crab kept coming. I’ve already suggested the Star of Honolulu to family members for when they visit.

  • Getting hungry

  • The taro bread was very good

  • The feast

  • The first time I've seen Diamond Head from the ocean

  • My daughter kept waving at the dancers

  • You're free to walk the decks during the cruise as well

I saw a whale! クジラみえました!

Reviewed by: zenhappy

It was very good. We used the shuttle from Aulani on February 27 with four children and three adults. We had a lot of fun. I recommend it. There were events on the boat, such as hula dance and ukulele workshops, which were enjoyable. It was unfortunate that the hula dance instructor felt sick from seasickness. However, the boat didn't sway as much as I expected. I think the lunch was reasonably priced.

Perhaps it was the right season, as we were able to see whales multiple times. Also, it was great to see Waikiki and Diamond Head from the ocean perspective, as I had never seen them that way before.

In any case, the children were happy, and I highly recommend it!

とても良かったです.アウラニからの送迎で,子供4人大人3人で2月27日に利用させていただきました.とても楽しかったです.お薦めです.舟の中では,フラダンスやウクレレの講習会などのイベントがあり,楽しませていただきました.フラダンスの先生が船酔いで具合悪かったのが,残念でした.とは行っても,舟は思ったほど揺れてませんでした.お昼の食事は,値段相応かと思います.
時季が良かったのでしょうか,クジラを何度も見られました.また,ワイキキとダイアモンドヘッドを海からの角度から見たことがなかったので,これもまた良かったです.
とにかく,子供も喜んでいましたし,お薦めです!!

Enjoying it to the fullest! 満喫☆

Reviewed by: ゆみ0202

The morning started off with a leisurely pickup, and the bus was comfortable. The boat was very clean, making it enjoyable for families, couples, and friends alike!

I had heard in a post that we might only see small whales, so I honestly approached it with a cruising mindset, but we were fortunate enough to see mother and baby whales jumping one after another!

The lunch was delicious, and the afternoon workshops, including ukulele, hula, and lei-making, were fun and enjoyed by everyone.

At the end, they asked if there were any birthday celebrants or newlyweds, and when the honeymooners gathered in front, they sang Hawaiian songs with a guitar, creating a wonderful time for everyone to celebrate.

I highly recommend it!

朝もゆっくりピックアップで、バスも快適。
船もとてもきれいで、家族、カップル、友達同士どんな旅行でも

楽しめる内容でした!

投稿で『小さい鯨の姿が見える程度』と聞いていたので、正直
クルージング感覚で行きましたが、鯨の親子が次々にジャンプ!

とても恵まれていました。

ランチも美味しいし、午後のワークショップもウクレレ、フラ、レイ作りと
楽しく皆満喫していました。

最後には誕生日の方か新婚さんはいますかー?前に出てーっと言われて、
ハネムーナーが前に集まると、ギターでハワイアンソングを歌ってくれて、
みんなで祝福する素敵な時間となりました。

本当におすすめですよー

The term "潮吹き" translates to "squirting" in English, often referring to a specific sexual phenomenon. 潮吹き

I had so much fun watching the whales that I lost track of time. I want to go again. Next time, I will bring binoculars. However, when it was time to take the bus back, I was late getting off the boat, so I had to look for the bus.

くじらを見ることに時間を忘れるほど
楽しかった。また、行きたい。今度は双眼鏡を持って行きます。ただ、帰りのバスに乗る時に、船から降りるのが遅かったので、バスを探しました

It was great! よかったです!

Reviewed by: くまちゃん

Since nature is the main factor, I didn't have overly high expectations, but I was able to see many whales and dolphins. I think I was just lucky. The price was also reasonable, and I was very satisfied. Additionally, I had no issues with seasickness, which was my biggest concern.

自然が前提なのであまり過度な期待はしなかったのですが、鯨も、そしてイルカもたくさん見ることができました。たまたまラッキーだったんだと思います。
お値段も安かったし、大満足です。
そして一番心配だった船酔いも全く問題ありませんでした。

Excessive expectations are not advisable. 過度な期待はNGかな

Reviewed by: soramame

It's surprisingly small, and since you can't see it up close, if you have too high expectations, you might think it's not much. When a whale is spotted, there will be an announcement in the direction it was seen, so I think it's important to dash and secure a good spot. If you don't make an effort to move, you might end up not seeing anything at all.

意外と小さいくて、あまり近くではみれないので、あまり期待し過ぎてるとこんなもんかと思ってしまいます。
クジラが見えたら見えた方向の放送がはいるので、ダッシュしていい場所が取れるかが重要だと思います。
頑張って移動したりしないと見れないで終わってしまったりもあり得ると思います。

Thank you very much for participating in our cruise. As you mentioned, during the whale watching cruise, moving around a bit increases the chances of seeing whales. We hope you will visit us again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.
