I know, I know, everyone likes to use the words “best” “amazing” “trip of a lifetime” THIS excursion IS absolutely THE best trip you will book! It may seem a little pricey, but the time, care, and knowledge that our tour guide Travis invested in our group was top of the line!
First of all, do not underestimate the “cold” warnings. It was frigid, cold to the bone so, dress appropriately! If you have a beanie, bring it for this trip.
Secondly, be prepared for the potential that the actual road up to the summit may be closed. Our group (along with 15 others) was told the road was closed and we would not be able to drive to the summit. Travis was able to talk with another tour operator (friends are good) and together they got the rangers to open the road for us last minute!! Yay!
Okay, so let’s talk dinner for a second. They served a vegetarian lasagna that was to die for most of my family are hard core meat eaters, so i was surprised at how quickly they snarfed it all down and EVERYONE commented on how “great” it was Make sure to bring your own water bottle (there is fresh water at the first stop) or whatever you want to drink.
Once we hit the road to climb the summit, the road was definitely an “off road” experience. Lots of major bumps but totally fun . The drive up was spectacular, so have your camera ready. The view from the top will blow your mind. Take a lot of pics and enjoy!
Then on to stargazing. Totally over the top and way exceeded my expectations! Travis had his own telescope that was a high end piece of equipment to say the least! He has so much knowledge that he was eager to share. We even got to see the once in a lifetime “green” comet he spent at least an extra hour with us up there when all the other tour operators were leaving. It was truly the most memorable experiences of my life! Mahalo to the entire team that i know has to work hard behind the scenes for this…my entire family is so grateful for the experience

The location is about a 30-minute drive from Waikiki, and picking up participants in Waikiki took quite a bit of time. Although it is a hiking tour, there are some steep paths, and since it was raining on and off, I was putting on and taking off my raincoat, which made me sweat a lot and quite tired. (It seems to rain often there, so I think non-slip shoes and a raincoat are necessary.) Also, there are quite a few mosquitoes, so insect repellent spray or long pants are recommended. (I wore shorts and got bitten in several places.) The mystical forest and the fairly large waterfall were amazing to see. On the way back, we had lunch at Tantalus Lookout. I had a pastrami sandwich, and the dressing was especially delicious.
場所はワイキキから車で30分程度のところにあり、
ワイキキでの参加者のピックアップの方が時間がかかったぐらいです。

結構な坂道になっており、雨も降ったり止んだりで

(雨が降ることが多いところらしいので、
滑りにくい靴とカッパは必要だと思います)
また、蚊が結構いるため虫除けスプレーか長ズボンがお勧めです。

We participated as a pair. The weather was a mix of cloudy and sunny. There were about 30 participants, and surprisingly, 28 of them were Japanese. Therefore, all the explanations that day were in Japanese, and the crew members were very kind. When we went to the heavenly sea by boat, we were greeted by an emerald blue that looked like a picture. It was much more beautiful than the sea at Waikiki Beach. We participated in early February, and the sea was warmer than we expected. First, we rode a stand-up paddleboard in the shallow waters for the first time, and it felt very pleasant. After that, we went snorkeling and swam above the fish. We also encountered turtles twice. This was the activity where I felt the most connected to Hawaii during this trip. I would love to participate again if I come back.

We raced through bumpy roads in a four-person buggy!! Everyone was screaming with excitement. It felt like a great way to relieve stress and clear my mind. Running through such beautiful nature in the open air is something I rarely get to do, so it was thrilling and a bit nerve-wracking, but so much fun!
P.S. On sunny days, when driving on dry roads, you can borrow helmets and goggles, so no worries there, but it's essential to bring your own mask (laughs).

Very little elevation gain on the trail, so it’s a very nice walk for most.
The amount of water coming down the falls depends on how much it has been raining. For us there was only a trickle.
They can’t take you to the official Tantalus Lookout inside the state park any more due to current restrictions, but you’ll still be treated to a pretty nice viewpoint overlooking the city after your picnic lunch.

Since I was staying at Prince Waikiki, it was very convenient to depart from the harbor right in front of me. I was also very happy to board the boat from the lovely harbor that I could only admire. Both the first and second floors were fully booked! We happened to get a two-person seat on the right side of the second floor. It wasn't by choice; it was just luck. The sun was quite strong, so a hat and sunglasses were a must! However, the wind was also strong, so be careful not to let them fly away! Looking closely at the water, I could see flying fish sparkling! In the distance, there was Diamond Head! The scenery was amazing. Everyone pointed out the whales by saying "There it is!" so I was able to spot them. They were a bit far away, but it was fun to search for them together, shouting "There it is!" The announcements were in English, but they didn't say anything too complicated. It was important to listen carefully to the safety instructions. We were fortunate to have good seats, and whales often appeared on the right side of the boat.

クジラの潮吹きを目印に「いたー!」と、皆が教えてくれるので、ちゃんとみつけられました。少し遠くだけれど、居たぞー!あそこだー!と、みんなで探すのは楽しかったです!

There is a ticket counter on the seaside of the Hilton where you can also book the same tour. It's significantly cheaper to book from there, but since we have small children, we specifically chose to book here because it offered Japanese narration. However, when we inquired on the day of the tour, we were told there was no Japanese available. In the end, we didn't understand the explanations well and couldn't enjoy it much. I'm really disappointed.

I tried surfing for the first time. They teach you carefully so that even beginners can understand, and when you're about to catch a wave, they guide you by saying, "Paddle and ride now!" After a few tries, I was able to ride the waves! Even in group lessons, you get to ride quite a number of waves, so I felt very satisfied.
*Tips are not included in the tour price, so it's recommended to bring cash. Depending on the group, there are usually about two trainers, so I think it's good to bring around three $10 bills.

Thank you very much for kindly instructing my family, who had the selfish desire to surf starting from New Year's Day. A long time ago, when I came to Hawaii, the lively sight of people surfing left a lasting impression on me, and I had always wanted to try surfing the next time I visited Hawaii. This time, it became a reality and a challenge after turning sixty, but I was able to experience it with my family.
The instructor was very kind and explained everything clearly. Although it was a short time, everyone managed to get on the board and even ride some waves, making us feel like we had joined the ranks of surfers. This activity became a precious page in the memories of our trip to Hawaii. I am grateful for the wonderful encounter with the instructor. Surfing is the best!

When you go to the reception at check-in time, you are first seated at a long table outside. The spacing between the chairs is a bit tight, so it feels like you're crammed in among strangers.
You receive a complimentary welcome drink, along with two free drink vouchers (you can choose whether they include alcohol). The meals are served buffet-style, and there were also some light entertainment during the meal. The taste was average, but the drinks (cocktails) were delicious.
Before long, we were guided inside the venue to watch the show, and finally, it was time for the Hawaiian show.
It started with hula dancing, followed by impersonations of Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross, and there was also a fire dance. The quality of the show was high, and I really enjoyed it.
チェックインタイムに受け付けに行くと、まず外にある長いテーブルに座らされます。椅子の間隔がやや狭いので、知らない人の中に詰め込まれる感じです。

We were able to participate as a family. There was an initial explanation, but I could hardly understand it in English. Just before entering the water, I realized that wearing the rental life jackets was not optional for those diving; everyone had to wear one. It would be easier to understand if there were boards displaying information in multiple languages.
The snorkeling was fantastic, with clear weather and a wonderful encounter with a turtle. There were some waves as we headed out to sea, and I got a bit seasick. Participants should be cautious about that. However, even in that situation, I felt safe. The staff were kind and helped me recover quickly.
At the end, we took a commemorative photo with the staff. It was a great memory to be able to swim with the turtle as well.
家族で参加できました。
最初の説明がありましたが、英語でほとんど理解できず、海に入る直前に、レンタルの救命胴衣は希望者ではなく、潜る人は皆着用必須であることがわかりました。各国語表示の掲示板のようなものがあると理解しやすいのになと思います。

母の還暦祝いにハワイ旅行をプレゼントしました。
1月下旬のハワイは風が強いためかなり肌寒く、スコール頻度が高かったです。
ツアーには日本人が3組と、外国人が3.4組ほどの合同でホテルまでの送迎付きで参加しました。
CMでよく見るサンドバーを想像していましたが、着いた時は曇天、潮位も腰ぐらい、水温もかなり冷たかったので、想像してたのとは違いがありました。
サンドバーでは同じツアーの日本人家族とバレーボールで激しく動いたのでその時は寒さを感じませんでした(笑)
船に戻るとものすごく寒すぎて日本人はみなブルブル震えていました。なので、タオルは多めで大きいの、羽織物も必須です。
船上では、日本人女性ガイドさんが親切にわかりやすく説明してくれました。
昼食は船上で焼いたハンバーガー
美味しかったです♪
ウミガメウォッチングでは、見事に大きなウミガメが何匹も海面に顔を出していました!
さらに、人生初大きな野生のマンタにも会うことができました!

思ってたよりかなり深く水深は約10-15mとのこと。
前日の大雨やスコールの影響で水中はかなり濁ってました。
近くまでいかないと何も見えない状況下の中で、なんとか大きな珊瑚と小魚見つけました(笑)
さらに急に野生のウミガメが現れてビックリ!

Choosing this activity on the first day of my trip was a great decision, especially considering the jet lag (I have snorkeling, surfing, and skin diving planned for the next day).
Since I was the first to arrive at the meeting point and there were no signs indicating the location for Veltra, I was a bit anxious about whether I was in the right place. However, a staff member came out from the building, but I thought it would be nice to have some kind of flag or sign.
Fortunately, the meeting point was close to the Outrigger Reef hotel, and the check-in process went smoothly. However, there were other groups from different countries that arrived late, which made us wait quite a bit. It felt a bit frustrating since I had arrived early. But I guess that's just how it is internationally.
No one was wearing masks. The sense of freedom from not wearing a mask was incredible. At first, I wondered if it was really okay, but I gradually got used to it.
I couldn't understand the crew's explanations in English, but they were very considerate towards the Japanese participants, so there were no issues. It felt like we could enjoy ourselves even without a common language, as we shared beers and had fun together. However, I always feel that I should have studied more English. If I understood the language better, it would have been even more enjoyable. (I'm currently looking for a translation app.)
However, it felt like I was being welcomed by the sea, wind, air, scenery, and fireworks of Hawaii. This is a wonderful activity to fully enjoy the eternal summer of Hawaii's ocean. I highly recommend it.
時差ボケなどもあるだろうからと、旅行初日に本アクティビティを選択し正解でした(次の日からシュノーケリング、サーフィン、スキンダイビングが控えています)。
集合場所に一番乗りだったため、ベルトラの集合場所という表示も何もないため、ここで本当に良いのか不安でした。担当員が建物の中から出てきてくれましたが、何かのぼり旗のような表示があればいいのになと思いました。
しかし、ホテル(アウトリガーリーフ)からも集合場所が近く、スムースに受付もできました。が、他国の遅れてくるグループがありだいぶ待たされました。せっかく早めに行ったのにという感じでした。が、それがインターナショナルなんでしょうね。
マスクをしている人はいません。マスクからの解放感は半端ないです。最初は本当にいいのかなという感じでしたが、次第に慣れていきます。
クルーの説明は英語で理解できませんでしたが、日本人にもクルーが大変気を使ってくれて何も問題はありません。ビールを飲んで一緒に盛り上がりましょうという感じで、言葉は通じなくても楽しめます。が、もっと英語を勉強しておけばよかったといつも痛感します。言葉がわかれば、もっと楽しいのになって。(今通訳アプリなどを探しています)
しかし、ハワイの海、風、空気、景色、そして花火で歓迎を受けているようでした。常夏のハワイの海を満喫できるすばらしいアクティビティです。おすすめです。

I challenged myself to horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, located about an hour by bus from Honolulu.
It seems to be a very popular tour, as the large shuttle bus was nearly full with other guests heading to different attractions at the ranch.
Horseback riding check-in times are divided into groups of about 5 to 6 people. I should have stored my belongings in a locker before that time, but I had a bit of trouble. I regret not having checked in my things earlier.
Video recording is prohibited, but photography is allowed. It's convenient to have a neck strap for your smartphone.
You confirm how to ride and safety precautions by watching a video in Japanese. Then, you immediately get on the horse, and the approximately two-hour horseback riding tour begins without any practice.
One instructor and 5 to 6 beginners start riding through the woods. This casual vibe definitely gives off an American impression.
After a while, I could see the green of the steep mountains on my left, cliffs on my right, and the blue sea stretching beyond the cliffs. It was breathtakingly beautiful. However, since I was on a mischievous horse, it felt a bit life-threatening (laughs).
As we continued, we reached the meadows that served as filming locations for the movie "Jurassic Park" and the drama "LOST." The scenery here was very moving. The two hours flew by, and I had a great time.
Depending on the horseback riding check-in time, the bus times for the return trip may vary. If you have other plans in the evening, you might need to be careful.
ホノルルからバスで1時間ほどのところにある、クアロア牧場で、乗馬に挑戦してきました。
とても人気のあるツアーのようで、送迎の大型バスは、同牧場の他のアトラクションの方々と同乗で、ほぼ満席状態でした。
乗馬は、5~6人ほどのグループごとにチェックインの時間が分けられています。その時間までに荷物をロッカーへ入れておくべきだったのですが、少し手間取りました。早めに預けておけば良かったと反省しています。
動画は禁止ですが、写真撮影はOK。スマホ用の首掛けストラップを用意しておくと便利です。
乗馬の仕方や注意事項は、日本語のビデオを見て確認します。そして、すぐに馬に乗り、何の練習もなく、約2時間の乗馬ツアーが始まりました。
インストラクター1人と、5~6人の初心者が、馬に乗って林の中を歩き出します。こういうザックリした感じは、やっぱりアメリカだな、という印象です。
しばらく行くと、左手には切り立つ山の緑、右手に崖、崖の先に広がる海の青が見えてきました。感動の美しさです。しかし、ヤンチャな馬の背に乗っていたので、ちょっと命がけでもありました(笑)
さらに歩いていくと、映画『ジュラシックパーク』や、ドラマ『LOST』のロケ地になった草原に出ます。ここはとても感動的な景色。2時間はあっという間で、とても楽しかったです。
乗馬のチェックインタイムによって、帰りに乗れるバスの時間が違うようです。夕方に他の予定を入れているときは、注意が必要かもしれません。

My girlfriend and I got to enjoy a private tour by Yoshi up Haleakalā, and I’ve rarely encountered a tour guide with such love for his profession and adopted home. Unfortunately it was very cloudy so we couldn’t see the stars, but Yoshi took us to a great pizza place and we chatted for several hours and learned so much about Japan and Maui. We will be back next time we’re in Maui and we will make sure it’s during the summer months for better weather conditions. I would strongly recommend taking a tour with him (and when given the option go for ice cream), as he will work so hard to ensure you have the greatest time.
Also don’t be too worried about it being cold, it was around 45F when we were there, and at least for me I was fine in a t-shirt.
