We thoroughly enjoyed our time and this was the best sunset and stargazing tour that my friend and I have participated in. Mr. Yoshi was very friendly from start to finish -- he made sure that we had time to eat food, stay hydrated, and rest well as we climbed in elevation. I was originally worried I wouldn't get to get my stamp for my national park passport because of the visitor center closure, but Mr. Yoshi asked the entrance park employee for a stamp on a post-it note, and it made my day! He knew the best places for sunset, and was very knowledgeable about all the stars. We learned so much about the sky, and enjoyed peaceful moments just looking up. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone spending time on Maui!

Snorkeling will be on many people’s “must-do” activity in Maui, but so should the Sunset and Stargazing tour in Haleakala with Yoshi! I went with my family and we haven’t stopped talking about how incredible the tour was. Yoshi is incredibly personable and every aspect of the tour is so thoughtful. With 20+ years of living in Maui and leading tours of the national park, Yoshi knows the best spots for sightseeing and has great local knowledge to share on the drive up to Haleakala. His state of the art telescopes allow you to see all kinds of constellations and we even got to see Saturn. The complimentary Krispy Crème donuts were a tasty treat and the music selection was so peaceful. I can’t recommend Yoshi and the tour enough. If you’re wanting to see Haleakala, definitely book with Yoshi. Mahalo!

On my sixth trip to Maui, I finally visited Haleakalā, which I had been curious about for a long time! During the journey, I was told I would regret not coming sooner, and it truly lived up to that expectation with its "star-filled sky" and "natural planetarium."
At the summit, above the clouds, there was nothing to obstruct the stars, and everywhere I looked, there were stars. I was deeply moved by the realization that the light I was seeing had traveled from before I was born.
The constellation explanations were detailed, and I was also taught how to beautifully capture the night sky with my smartphone, allowing me to preserve the breathtaking views both in memory and in photos.
I hope everyone, regardless of age or gender, gets to see that scenery at least once and experience being liberated from the harshness of society. Thank you!
6回目のマウイで、ずっと気になっていたハレアカラ山についに行ってみました!
道中、これまで来なかったことを後悔する、と言われたのですが、まさにその期待を裏切らない「満天の星」「天然のプラネタリウム」でした。
山頂は雲の上なので、星を遮るものは何もなく、どこを見渡しても星。
また、自分が生まれる前の光が今この目に届いているということを実感し、さらに感動しました。
星座の解説も詳しく、スマホで綺麗に星空を撮影する方法も丁寧に教えていただけたため、記憶としても、写真としても絶景を留めることができました。
老若男女問わず、一度はあの景色を見て、殺伐とした社会から解き放たれる経験をしてみて欲しいです。
ありがとうございました!
You can prepare warm clothing, blankets, and hot tea, but the summit is around 10°C and can be cold with the wind, so I think it's best to be well-prepared for the cold.
防寒着、毛布、温かいお茶など用意していただけますが、山頂は10℃くらいで風が吹くと寒いので、しっかり防寒準備したほうがいいと思います。

This was the best tour of my life. You can go by rental car, but there were so many experiences that you can only have on the tour. The tour guide, Yamapi, kindly shared information beyond the tour, so it's better to join early after arriving in Maui. I would love to participate again.

It's amazing that you can drive up to a height comparable to Mount Fuji. The sunset viewed from there, along with the sea of clouds changing colors as the sun sets, was wonderful. As a couple in our 60s, we were grateful for the easy ascent to the summit of Haleakalā, which made us feel like we really got our money's worth. The stargazing was also fantastic. I have participated in stargazing tours in Hawaii multiple times in the past, but this was the first time we each had our own chair, which was very comfortable (I usually end up standing and looking up at the stars, which always makes my neck hurt). Our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, provided explanations that were very clear and enjoyable. We will definitely come again!
車で富士山並みの高さまで登れるのは最高です。そこから見る夕日と夕日に染まり刻々と色が変わる雲海は素晴らしかったです。60代夫婦としては、労せず富士山並みの高さのハレアカラ登頂は有難く、とても得した気分になりました。星空観測もバッチリでした。過去にハワイで星空観測ツアーに複数回行きましたが、一人一つのチェアが用意されていたのは初めてで、とても楽ちんでした(いつも首が痛くなる感じで立って星を見上げていたので)。ガイドの山内さんの説明はとてもわかりやすく楽しかったです。また、行きます!

Sunset and Stargazing was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. We were taken to the top of Halakela to see the amazing views, then due to the crowds we went a little lower to a secluded viewing area, chairs were provided, snacks and tea. Watched a amazing sunset, were provided Jackets as it gets cold after the sunset. Stargazing was unreal! Two powerful Telescopes were used, saw stars and the craters of the moon like never have. It was a memory of a lifetime.

I have been to the Big Island three times and experienced the great nature of Hawaii, which is completely different from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu on Oahu. This time, I stayed on Maui for the first time and participated in a tour exploring the island's natural beauty, and I once again enjoyed the grandeur of Hawaii's nature. While the overall atmosphere is similar to the Big Island, I could feel Maui's unique vibe.
Although it is still not very familiar to Japanese people, it has an untouched feel, and I became good friends with my fellow tour participants during lunch and other activities. Additionally, the driver and guide for the day spoke in clear English, making it easy to understand the history and points of interest on Maui.
ハワイ島にもこれまで3度ほど行ってオアフ島のホノルルの喧騒とは全く違うハワイの大自然を経験しているが、今回、初めてマウイ島でステイして、島の大自然を巡るツアーに参加したが、改めて、ハワイの自然の雄大さを満喫した。ハワイ島とは全体の雰囲気が似ているが、マウイ独特の雰囲気が感じられた。
まだまだ日本人には馴染みが少ないが、その分、手垢のついていない感じがあり、ツアーの同乗者ともランチ等ですっかり仲良くなった。また当日のドライバー兼ガイドのおじさんが分かりやすい英語で話してくれたので、マウイ島の歴史やスポットの説明が良く理解できた。
I definitely recommend exploring not just Oahu but also the other islands of Hawaii for a challenge.

Thank you for your 5-star review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed experiencing the Haleakalā Sunrise with Polynesian Adventure. Did you know Haleakalā means “House of the Sun”? According to Hawaiian legend, the demigod Māui lassoed the sun from the summit to slow its journey and give us longer days. We’re so glad you got to witness this magical moment at nearly 10,000 feet above sea level. We hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon!

During the shuttle ride, Yamapi explained Haleakalā in both Japanese and English, providing various tips for the drive. Along the way, he helped us purchase donuts and poke bowls at a supermarket as we headed to the summit. Perhaps because it was a day when the moon didn't interfere, the road was congested, so we took photos with the Haleakalā sign with the people we were with. We managed to catch the sunset and captured a beautifully colored sky. The poke bowl we had at the summit was very delicious, and I can understand why Yamapi recommended it. The Krispy Kreme donuts also tasted better than those in Japan. The starry sky was truly moving, as he explained the constellations clearly and showed us the colors of the stars through a telescope. He even taught us how to take photos with an iPhone, allowing us to capture the beautiful Milky Way with our own phones. I highly recommend seeing the starry sky with your own eyes.
送迎の車ではやまぴーさんが日本語と英語でハレアカラの説明や運転のアドバイスなど色々お話をしてくれました。途中ドーナツとスーパーでポケ丼を購入する手伝いをしてくれて山頂へ向かいました。今回は月が邪魔しない日だったからか道が渋滞していたのでハレアカラの看板での写真撮影は一緒に行った人同士で撮影しました。なんとか日没に間に合ってとても綺麗な日の入りの空が撮影できました。山頂で食べたポケ丼はとても美味しかったです。やまぴーさんがお勧めするのも頷けます。クリスピークリームドーナツも日本で食べるより美味しく感じました。星空は星座をわかりやすく説明してくれたり、望遠鏡を使って星の色を見せてくれたりとても感動しました。iPhoneでの撮影の仕方も教えてもらえるので自分の携帯でも綺麗な天の川が撮影できました。満天の星空は是非自分の目で見てほしいです。
You can borrow winter clothing, but having a fleece or a light down jacket will keep you warm and allow you to enjoy the starry sky. There are also restrooms at the summit, so you can participate with

We were picked up at 3 PM for Haleakalā. Despite the temperature being 29°C, we gathered with warm clothing. The car set off towards Haleakalā, taking breaks for altitude acclimatization. At 1000 meters, we stopped at a supermarket to prepare dinner. At 2000 meters, we took a bathroom break and captured photos of avocado trees.
We reached the 3000-meter mark, but some participants felt the air was thin. At 6 PM, our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, treated us to various poke ingredients and rice, which we enjoyed as poke bowls in the car. Once it got dark, we had a stargazing session. Despite bringing a down coat, it was still cold, and I was surprised that my hands became numb.
We returned to the hotel around 10:30 PM, and I am grateful to Mr. Yamauchi for being talented, attentive, and smooth in conversation, keeping tourists, including children, engaged for over half a day.

I was taken on a tour by Yamapi. Fortunately, it was just my group, so we had the chance to talk about various recommended spots in Maui and Honolulu, as well as Yamapi's life stories while he guided us up the mountain.
We took photos at a scenic spot, watched the sunset, and waited for the stars. Since it was about half a moon, the Milky Way was only faintly visible, but there was no wind at all, so I didn't have to worry about the cold. (It seems that it’s usually quite windy and cold, but we just happened to have calm weather that day.) They also provide blankets and warm clothing, which is reassuring.
We slowly looked at various stars through a telescope while receiving explanations. The photo of the moon was one I took with my phone while trying to capture what I saw through the telescope. They also teach you how to take photos of stars with your phone, so you can get beautiful shots even with an iPhone camera.
I truly felt that participating in this activity, where you can experience the rich nature and vast sky, was a great decision. I will definitely bring my brother and his wife next year.
やまぴーさんのガイドで連れて行ってもらいました。
ラッキーな事に自分のグループのみだったので、色々マウイやホノルルのお勧めスポットの話や、やまぴーさんの人生談など、色々お話しながら山に連れて行ってもらいました。
写真スポットで写真を撮ってもらって、夕日を見送り、星待ち。
半月くらいだったので、天の川はうっすらしか見えなかったですが、全く風が無く、寒さの心配無用でした。
(本当にたまたま風がなかっただけで、いつもは結構風もあって寒いみたいです)
毛布や防寒着も貸してくれるので安心です。
天体望遠鏡でいろんな星を解説してもらいながらゆっくり見せてもらいました。
月の写真は天体望遠鏡で見えるのを頑張って携帯で撮ったものです。
携帯での星の写真の撮り方も教えてくれるので、iPhoneのカメラでもキレイに撮れます。
自然豊かで大きな空を感じられるこのアクティビティは本当に参加して良かったと思えました。
また来年は弟夫婦も連れて必ず行きます。
If you're worried about the cold, bringing heat packs or Uniqlo's Ultra Warm products will give you extra peace of mind.
寒さが心配な人は貼るホカロンや、ユニクロの極暖などを持っていくとより安心です。

It's a stargazing experience that you absolutely can't see in Japan. It's the best event in Maui.
