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

It's the best! 最高です!

Reviewed by: TOM

The sunset was amazing! I love traveling to various places and watching sunrises and sunsets, but this was the BEST sunset. I don't think there will be a sunset that surpasses this one. The experienced staff took beautiful photos, and I really appreciate that they are available for download.

As for stargazing, since it was a full moon the next day, there may not have been a lot of stars visible. If I go again, I would like to choose a time around the new moon or when the moon is not out. They provided a lot of explanations about the constellations while observing Jupiter, Saturn, and the moon through a telescope.

夕日が最高でした!
色んな所旅行して、朝日と夕日を見るのが好きですが、BEST OF 夕日です。
たぶんこれを超える夕日は無いかと。
経験豊富なスタッフさんがキレイな写真を撮影して下さり、
ダウンロード可能なのも非常にありがたいです。

星空観察に関して言うと、翌日満月だったこともあり、星が沢山って訳ではなかったかもしれません。次回行くなら新月の時期か、その時間帯に月が出ていない時期を選びたいです。望遠鏡で木星、土星、月を観察して星座の説明もたくさんして下さりました。

マンタ大学夜学部 野生のマンタ&ナイトシュノーケリングツアー <送迎可/日本語スタッフ乗船日あり>

It was a little scary. 少し怖かった

Reviewed by: あゆみ

Several manta rays came right up to us, showing their bellies and dancing. It took about 30 minutes to reach the manta point after getting on the boat, and I was tired by the time we arrived due to the rain. You can see the mantas while snorkeling by holding onto the boat's rope. There are floats available, but you need to jump into the sea from the boat and swim back to it on your own. I was scared to jump in. The snorkeling lasted about 40 minutes. It was tiring because it was cold and raining. If you call out to the staff, you can return to the boat midway. On the way back, we were offered hot chocolate. It was physically challenging, but I’m grateful for the many mantas we saw and the hospitality of the Japanese staff.

何枚ものマンタがすぐそばまでやってきてくれて、おなかを見せてダンスをしてくれました。
船にのってから、マンタのポイントまでは30分程度あり、雨が降っていたこともあり、つくまでに疲れました。マンタはボートの綱に捕まってシュノーケリングしながら見ます。浮きはありますが、船から海に飛び込み、ボートまでは自力でいく必要があります。飛び込むのがこわかったです。シュノーケリングは、40分くらいあります。雨が降って寒かったので疲れました。スタッフの方に声をかけると途中で船に戻れます。
帰りの船では、ホットチョコレートをいただけました。
体力的にはつらかったけど、マンタがたくさん見られたのと、日本人スタッフの方のホスピタリティに感謝いたします。

Reply from activity provider

I think the manta ray rolling might be too close for comfort.

Snorkeling for long periods in the ocean at night can be physically demanding, so if you start to feel tired, please consider getting back on the boat early and enjoy the experience without overexerting yourself.

マンタのローリングはとても近くで触れてしまうのではないかと思
夜の海で体感が下がる中の長時間でのスノーケルは体力を使いますので、疲れてきたと思ったら早めに船に上がるなど体調と相談しながら無理せずに楽しんでいただければと思います。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー 滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く!<午前・午後/英語ガイド/食事付>by フェアウィンド号

It was fun, but... 楽しかったんですが…

Reviewed by: よっしー

I had a lot of fun, but even though I arrived early at the meeting place, it seems there was an explanation in English, which I struggle with. As a result, I ended up boarding the boat late, and the only seats available were on the sunny second floor, but I managed to find a spot that was somewhat shaded from the sun.

I felt a sense of alienation, realizing what it's like when you can't communicate. I had to observe the people around me while eating... For those who are not good at English at all, please pay attention to the people around you.

The sea is beautiful, and the staff are kind, but I was a bit disappointed.

とても楽しかったんですが、集合場所に早くに集まったのに、英語での説明はあったらしいが、英語が苦手。その為船に乗るのが遅くなり、二階の日の当たる席しか空いてなく、どうにか日差し遮る場所に座れました。
言葉が通じないってこんな感じなんだなって疎外感
周りの人の様子見ながら食事したり…

The food is not very promising. お食事はあまり期待できません。

Reviewed by: アラモはなこ

It was a buffet, but there weren't many options. It seems that seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, but I arrived just in time and ended up in the last row. Moreover, right in front of me, there were reserved seats that no one was sitting in. I wish they had opened up the seats that weren't occupied by showtime. Honestly, I was standing up and watching from a very far distance, and at this price, I felt it wasn't worth it.

ビュッフェでしたが、あまり種類がありません。お席は先着順らしいのですが、時間ギリギリに行ったので最後列。しかも、真ん前正面は、席を取り置きしながら、誰も座っておらず空席。ショーの時間に着席していない席は開放して欲しかったです。すごく遠くから、立ち上がって見ていましたので正直、この価格でこれはないな。と思いました。

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

I'm really glad I chose the Maasai Nature School. マサイネイチャースクールにして本当によかったです。

Reviewed by: ちーやん

Four years ago, I participated in the same course tour with another company, and this was my second Mauna Kea tour. The tour guide's explanations were very interesting and informative. During lunch, there was a service of warm miso soup and hot drinks. At the summit of Mauna Kea, they took many photos of each group during the stargazing session. Moreover, they upload those photos to their website, so you can download them later. I think this is especially a nice service for solo travelers who can't take their own pictures. I used to think there wasn't much difference between companies, but I realized this time that there is a significant difference. If I have the chance next time, I would definitely like to request this tour again.

4年前に別の会社で同じコースのツアーに参加して、今回が2回目のマウナケアツアーでした。
ツアーガイドの方の説明がとても面白くて、しかもためになりました。
お弁当の時には温かい味噌汁と温かいドリンクのサービスがありました。
マウナケア山頂でも星空観測の時にもグループごとに何枚も写真を撮ってくださいました。しかもその写真をホームページにアップしてくれるので、あとからダウンロードできます。一人旅の時には自分の写真が取れないので特にうれしいサービスだと思います。
どこの会社で行っても、大差はないと思っていましたが、大きく違うことに今回気が付きました。
次回、チャンスがあれば、また是非お願いしたいと思います。

マンタ大学夜学部 野生のマンタ&ナイトシュノーケリングツアー <送迎可/日本語スタッフ乗船日あり>

Manta rays are cute! (⁎˃ᴗ˂⁎) マンタかわいい(⁎˃ᴗ˂⁎)

Reviewed by: キングズやぎ

We were picked up at Kings' Land in Waikoloa and taken to the venue. We rented a wetsuit ($10) and a snorkeling set (free) on-site before setting off. The boat rocked quite a bit; it swayed back and forth so much that my girlfriend got sick, which is unusual, as we were told it doesn't usually rock this much. However, the staff were very kind and accommodating! I think even those who usually do fine should definitely take motion sickness medication!

The manta rays came right up to our faces, and it was an amazing experience! It felt like they were checking in on my girlfriend, asking, "Are you okay?" which made us burst out laughing. The waves were intense, so while watching the mantas, we were lying face down, and when we returned to our usual position on the boat, I suddenly felt very seasick.

On the way back, it was quite cold even with the wetsuit on, so warm clothing is essential! The boat ride lasts about 30 minutes, and during that time, you might be shivering.

But even with that, it was the best experience! We're already talking about wanting to go see dolphins next time!

ワイコロアのキングズランドまでお迎えに来ていただき会場まで行きました。
現地でウェットスーツ(10ドル)とシュノーケルセット(無料)を借りて出発。
船はかなり揺れました、いつもはこんなに揺れないと言われるくらい縦に横に揺れて彼女は戻してしまうほど( ˊᵕˋ ;)でもスタッフの方達はかなり親切に対応して下さいました!普段大丈夫な人も酔い止め必須だと思います!

マンタは本当に顔の目の前まで来てくれて素晴らしい体験でした!!彼女に「大丈夫かー?」って言ってくれてるかのようで思わず吹き出しました。笑
波が激しかったのでマンタ見てる時はうつ伏せ状態→船に戻って普段の体制になると私も急激に酔いが回りました。

帰りはウェットスーツ来ててもかなり寒いので防寒着必須です!船は30分くらい乗るのでその間は震えます。

でもそれを差し引いても最高の体験でした!次回はイルカ行きたいねーと話しています!

We had an amazing time on our tour! We saw wild goats (kau) climbing along the coastline, Cassie taught us some history about Queen Ka’ahumanu, and we saw several mantas up close (hit my snorkel gear close), including Amanda and Big Bertha. We booked the small group tour and it turned out we were the only two - what luck! Would love to do it again!

Finally, at the end... 最後のほうにようやく

Reviewed by: みけこ

We participated as a couple. The boat had people from various countries, not just Japanese. There were about two Japanese couples. There were mostly Caucasian people. Although the weather was nice that day, there were really few plankton to serve as bait, so we only managed to see them towards the very end. We had to stay in the water the whole time, which made it quite tough as our bodies got cold. I think it would be better to wear a long wetsuit and to go in good health.

夫婦で参加しました。船は、日本人だけでなくいろんな国の人と一緒です。日本人は2組くらい。白人系の人が多かったです。この日は天気はよかったものの、餌となるプランクトンが少なかったということで本当に最後のほうにようやく会えたかんじでした。
ずーっと水にはいっていなければならなかったので体が冷えてかなりきつかった。スエットスーツの長いのを着ていった方が良いと思いますし、体調万全で行った方が良いと思います。

I recommend it. お勧めです。

Reviewed by: ガーナ

It was a large boat, so I didn't mind the rocking. It probably depends on the sea conditions, but last year, when my mother participated in a different tour, she got seasick and had to sit out. This time, she finished her hamburger for lunch. At the snorkeling point, we encountered a sea turtle. On the way back, dolphins chased the boat.

I recommend the pricing for accompanying passengers. Even if snorkeling isn't possible, it's great for families who want to enjoy cruising together.

大きな船なので、船揺れが気になりませんでした。
海のコンディションにもよるのでしょうが、去年別のツアーに参加した際は船酔いでダウンしていた母が、今回はランチのハンバーガーを完食していました。
シュノーケルポイントではウミガメと遭遇。帰路はイルカが船を追いかけてきました。
同乗者料金の設定があるもお勧めポイント。
シュノーケルは無理でも、クルージングは同行したい家族連れに嬉しいですね。

We participated as a couple on our honeymoon trip. Fortunately, we encountered dolphins shortly after setting sail on the boat! We were able to see these wild dolphins up close, which I thought I could only see in an aquarium. It was moving to hear the sounds of dolphins that I had only heard on television! There were times when the dolphins would swim away to take a break, but our guide, Ray, and the captain made an effort to ensure that participants had as much time as possible to interact with the dolphins. I think even those who are not good swimmers can enjoy the experience with the solid support from the guides. I could feel the love for dolphins from both Mr. Nawa and guide Ray, and I definitely want to join this tour again.

ハネムーン旅行で夫婦で参加しました。幸運なことにボートで出航して後すぐにイルカに遭遇!水族館でしか見られないと思っていた自然のイルカを間近に見ることが出来ました。テレビでしか聞いたことがないイルカの声も聴くことができ感動です!途中イルカが休憩するために離れるしまうこともありましたが、ガイドのレイさん船長さんは参加者が少しでもイルカと触れ合える時間を作れるように努力してくださっていました。また泳ぎが苦手な人でもガイドの方がしっかりサポートして下さるので安心して楽しめると思います。縄田さん、ガイドのレイさんからはイルカの愛が感じられ、ぜひまたこのツアーに参加したいと思いました。

My partner sank. (This was my misunderstanding.) パートナー撃沈。(こちらの勘違い)

Reviewed by: てっちゃん

The boat was rocking violently, and my partner got seasick. The meals didn't suit Japanese tastes at all. This tour seems to be aimed at Westerners with strong stamina. Also, it costs $210 for a round trip by taxi from Hilton Waikoloa. While I take full responsibility for mistakenly booking this thinking it was a dinner cruise in Oahu, I think it would be considerate to mention the level of rocking and the time and transportation options from each resort to the port.

船の揺れが激しく、パートナー撃沈。食事も日本人に全く合いません。強靭な体力を持った欧米人向けのツアーですね。また、ヒルトンワイコロアからは、タクシーで往復210ドルかかります。全ての責任は、オアフ島のディナークルーズと勘違いして申し込んだ当方にありますが、出来れば、それなりに揺れること、また、各リゾートからの港までの時間と交通手段を書いておいてあげると親切かと思います。

Mauna Kea Summit マウナケア山頂

Reviewed by: タカノリ

It was really great.
The weather was favorable, so we could see a lot of stars. It was the best stargazing experience of my life.
The guide was fun, reliable, and there were no complaints.
They also took care of my health, and since it was a trip while acclimatizing to high altitude, that was good.
The only downside was that the bento was a bit mediocre. The miso soup was incredibly delicious.

すごく良かった。
天候にも恵まれたため、かなり星空が見えた。人生で最高の星空体験。
ガイドさんも楽しく。頼り甲斐があり、文句なし。
体調面も気を使ってもらい、高地順応しながらの旅だったのでよかった。
残念な点は、弁当が微妙なところ。味噌汁は最高に美味しかった。

プライベートチャーター ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリング+イルカウォッチングツアー!GoProレンタルあり<午前/日本語ガイド>

I was healed by the dolphins! イルカさんたちに癒されました!

Reviewed by: ムムネコ

I participated alone since my friend is not comfortable with the ocean, but the other participants were friendly, and thanks to our guide Daisuke, I had a wonderful time! I wasn't familiar with our guide, but he is also a photographer for dolphins and whales, and the tour itself is a warm experience that values the feelings of the dolphins.

After about 40 minutes out to sea, we encountered a group of dolphins. The guide communicated with the dolphins and led us, allowing us to see them up close. When a dolphin slowly approached us at such a close distance and we locked eyes, I was so moved that I shed tears! We also got to see the spinning jumps of the spinner dolphins multiple times. This tour filled me with gratitude for the dolphins' kindness and the beauty of the ocean as seen from the boat. I highly recommend this experience for anyone visiting the Big Island of Hawaii. (Afterward, my friend was inspired by my excitement and wanted to join, but the reservations were fully booked for several days ahead, so be sure to book early!)

友達が海は苦手ということで1人参加しましたが、参加者の方々もフレンドリーで、ガイドのだいすけさんのおかげで心地よく過ごせました!ガイドの方は存じ上げなかったのですが、イルカやクジラさんたちの写真家でもあり、ツアー自体もイルカの気持ちを大事にしている暖かいツアーです。
40分ほどで沖に出るとイルカさんたちがわらわらいました。ガイドの方がイルカとコミュニケーションを取りながら誘導してくれたので、間近で見れましたし、真横にゆっくり!?至近距離で来てくれたイルカさんとジッーと目が合ったときは、感動して涙が出ちゃいました!
回転しながらジャンプするというスピナードルフィンぶりも何度も見せてくれました。イルカの優しさやボートから見る海の美しさに感謝でいっぱいになるツアーです。ハワイ島にきたらまずオススメしたいと思います。(その後、私の感動っぷりに触発された友達が参加しようとしましたが、数日先まで予約が埋まっていたのでお早めに!)

It was a very satisfying tour! 大満足のツアーです!

Reviewed by: kana

It was great that the pickup was close to the port, and we didn't have to go far from the port to see a large group of dolphins. I didn't expect to see dolphins so close to the port.

We were lucky to see dolphins multiple times, and it was so much fun.

Guide Ray and all the staff were wonderful in their thoughtfulness.

Thank you very much!

送迎で港まで近いのと、港からボートまで遠くに行かなくてもイルカの大群に会えたので良かったです。こんなに港近くでイルカに会えるとは思わなかったからです。
何度もイルカに会えたのは、運が良かったのもありますが、とっても楽しかったです。
ガイドのレイさん、スタッフのみなさんのの心遣いも素晴らしかったです。
ありがとうございました!

The guide was very kind, and it was a fun time! The talk and the photography were full of enthusiasm and it was really great. The cocoa made under the starry sky was very delicious and warming! The bento wasn't very tasty, though > < (I'm sorry...)

ガイドの方がとても親切で楽しいひと時でした!
トークも撮影もサービス精神旺盛でとてもよかったです。
星空の下で作ってくださったココアがとてもおいしくて温まりました!
お弁当はあまりおいしくなかったです><(すみません…)
