I participated in the tour on September 24 (Tuesday). It was a "Happy Vacation!" with just the two of us girls. The stargazing was amazing! The Milky Way, which I saw for the first time, was truly beautiful, and just looking at it made me feel so happy!! After moving to Oahu, I still can't forget Haleakalā. The stargazing in Maui is indeed wonderful!
I really resonated with what Mr. Yamape said: "Since our customers have come all the way here, I want to do everything I can for them." I believe that having a sincere attitude towards customers is truly important in any job.
With the countless sparkling stars we saw in Maui in our hearts, I hope to spend each day feeling happy. Thank you so much!! I will definitely go back to Maui to see the stargazing again☆
We love Hokulea!!
9/24(火)のツアーに参加しました。Happy Vacation!ということで、女子2人での参加です。
天プラ、最高でした!初めて見た天の川が本当にとてもキレイで、見ているだけで幸せな気持ちになれました!!オアフ島に移動してからも、ハレアカラが忘れられません。やはりマウイ島の天プラは素晴らしいですね!
山ピーさんのおっしゃっていた、「お客様がせっかくここまで来てくれたのだから、できる限りのことはしたいと思っている」という言葉と姿勢にとても共感しました。どんな仕事でも、お客様に対して、真摯に接する姿勢は本当に大切だと思っています。
私たちも、マウイ島で見た、無数のきらめく星たちを心に、毎日を幸せな気持ちで過ごしたいなぁと思います。
本当にありがとうございました!!また絶対、マウイ島の天プラ観に行きます☆

We used this service for our honeymoon. I was actually looking for a sunrise at Haleakalā online, but unfortunately, all the dates were fully booked, so I had to change to a sunset. Among various options, this was the only one available, and I was glad to secure a reservation, eagerly looking forward to the day. The guide was fantastic, and I was overwhelmed by the number of stars I had never seen before. I saw the Milky Way, Orihime and Hikoboshi, and a shooting star for the first time in my life. I had never been interested in stars before, but it was truly moving. My husband and I were really satisfied with the sunset! Thank you very much!
新婚旅行で利用させてもらいました。本当はハレアカラのサンライズを見たいとネットで探していました。しかしサンライズは時期的にどの日程もいっぱいで予約がとれず、仕方なくサンセットに変更して探していました。色々探した中で唯一空きがあり、予約がとれて良かったと思い、当日を楽しみに待っていました。ガイドの方もすごく良かったし、今まで見たことのない星の数に圧倒されました。天の川とか織姫彦星、人生で初めて見た流れ星、今まで星なんて全く興味なかったんですが、感動しました。主人とサンセットで良かったね!ってすごく満足しました!
ありがとうございました!
I'm so glad to have become a page in the fun memories of your honeymoon. Since we have the Haleakalā stargazing license, we were able to use large telescopes and even see the rings of Saturn. Next time, I'll introduce you to some more unique stars!
ハネムーンの楽しい想い出の一頁になれて嬉しい限りです。
ハレアカラの星空ライセンスが取れているため、大きな望遠鏡などが出せるので土星の輪も見れましたね。
次回もまたマニアックな星をご紹介致しますね!

At the end of December last year, we visited Maui and Oahu for our honeymoon. I wanted to see the sunset, so I requested to join the Haleakalā tour in Maui. When I called the hotel, they informed me that the weather was going to be tough... But both my husband and I wanted to go regardless of whether we could see anything! That was our answer. When I conveyed this, they replied, "Of course."
On the day of the tour, they picked us up, took us to the post office, and brought us to a yogurt ice cream shop. Since it was just the two of us, we had great conversations, and there were plenty of bathroom breaks. Despite being told that the chances of seeing the sunset were slim, we were able to see it! At the summit, we took wonderful photos, and on the way back, we were treated to warm tea, a bento box, and they provided chairs, blankets, and jackets for us. When I looked up, the starry sky was breathtaking, and I couldn't help but shed a few tears.
My husband, who is shy, also seemed to have a great time talking. Even though it was a tour, it felt very personal, as if we were being taken around by someone close to us. We are expecting a child in November this year, so we would like to join again as a family of three. Please take care of yourselves until then and continue the tours. Thank you very much!
昨年の12月末にマウイ島とオアフ島を新婚旅行で訪れました☆
サンセットが見たくて、私のリクエストでマウイ島のハレアカラツアーに参加しました。ホテルから電話すると、お天気が厳しいとのお答えが…
でも、私も主人も来たからには見えなくても行きたい!それが答えでした。その旨を伝えると、もちろんとのお返事が。
当日、お迎えに来ていただき、郵便局へ行ったり、ヨーグルトアイスのお店へ連れていっていただいたり、私達2人の貸しきりだったので、お話もとっても弾み、途中のトイレ休憩もたくさんあり、ほぼ望みは薄いといわれてたサンセットも見ることが出来、山頂では素敵な写真も撮って頂き、帰る途中では温かいお茶に幕の内弁当に、椅子にブランケットにジャケットを用意していただき、見上げれば満点の星空☆勝手に涙が出てきました。
人見知りの主人もお話出来たこととてもいい思い出だったみたいです。
ツアーなのにツアー感を感じず、とっても身近な方に連れていって頂いてる感じでした。
今年の11月に子供が生まれるので、今度は3人で参加したいと思います。
その時まで体に気をつけてツアー続けて下さいね。
本当にありがとうございました。
Congratulations on the new life! Your heart must be at peace as you've entered the next stage. Please be sure to come with your healthy baby next time, we look forward to it!
新しい命が宿られたようで心からおめでとうございます!
きっと心が安らかになって、次の段階に入られたのですね~。

I saw three shooting stars. After that, the sky gradually brightened, and I was able to see the sunrise I had longed for. The summit is very cold, so it's better to prepare for the cold. (Even with a T-shirt, Heattech, fleece, scarf, and gloves, it was still quite chilly.) I actually wanted to go on a Japanese tour, but I couldn't book it for the desired date... However, I really wanted to see the sunrise. I was anxious about the English tour, but coffee and bread were provided on the bus, and I was able to achieve my goal of seeing the sunrise. There was no explanation about the stars, but if you're just looking to see the sunrise, I recommend it. After the sun rises, they take you to a scenic viewpoint. I was also satisfied with the breakfast after descending the mountain. The scenery was truly magnificent.
流れ星を3つも見ました。その後空がだんだんと明るくなっていき、念願のサンライズをばっちり見ることができました。山頂はとっても寒いので、防寒対策をした方がよいです。(Tシャツ・ヒートテック・フリース・マフラー・手袋ではまだまださむかったです。)本当は、日本語のツアーに行きたかったのですが、希望の日にちではとることができず・・・。でも、サンライズは見たくて・・・。英語ツアーで不安でしたが、バスの中でコーヒーやパンなども提供され、サンライズを見る目的は達成できました。星の説明などはありませんが、サンライズを見るだけで良ければ、おすすめです。陽が昇った後、絶景ポイントに連れて行ってくれます。山を下りてからの朝食も満足できました。とっても雄大な景色でした。

Initially, we considered driving there ourselves, but choosing this tour was definitely the right decision!
The hiking trail was longer than we imagined, so driving would have been tough, but more importantly, the owner of Maui All Stars, Mr. Yamauchi, was fantastic.
I was torn between sunrise and sunset, but considering the clarity of the air, he strongly recommended sunset! We were able to enjoy the starry sky at a leisurely pace.
Mr. Yamauchi is very knowledgeable about the stars and provided various telescopes, big and small. He shared interesting and engaging stories that entertained both kids and adults.
The heartfelt services, such as the background music during stargazing, chairs, bento boxes, and warm tea, left us truly impressed.
He was also skilled with digital cameras and made thoughtful arrangements for our photos. We got some amazing shots at the summit!
In any case, if you're going to Haleakalā, I highly recommend participating in this tour.
If I ever go to Maui again, I would love to do it once more.
当初、自分たちで車で行くことも考えていましたが、このツアーにして大正解でした!
登山道は想像以上に長い道のりだったので、運転はつらかっただろうという理由もありますが、それ以上に、マウイオールスターズのオーナーのヤマウチさんは素晴らしかったからです。
サンライズかサンセットかで迷っていたのですが、空気の澄み具合を考えると、絶対サンセットがおすすめ!とのことでした。星空もゆっくり楽しめました。
ヤマウチさんは星空に大変詳しくて、大小様々な望遠鏡を用意してくれた上、子どもたちも大人も楽しめるように、丁寧で面白いお話を聞かせてくれました。
星空観測の時のBGMや椅子、幕の内弁当やあたたかいお茶など、心のこもったサービスで感激しっぱなしでした。
デジカメの扱いにも精通していて、いろいろ配慮して撮影してくれました。
山頂では、驚きの写真も!
とにかく、ハレアカラに行くなら、ぜひ参加してほしいです。
私も、もしまたマウイに行くことがあったら、もう一度行きたいです。
Thank you for your hard work on the long journey! During the summer vacation, there are many children who come to study the stars, so I try to explain things as clearly as possible. The sight of small children eagerly peering through the telescope at the starry sky might just be the future astronauts of tomorrow. Please feel free to come back to Maui anytime!
長い道中お疲れ様でした! 夏休みは子供達も多くて星の勉強にも来るので、なるべく分りやすく説明しています。
小さい子供達も満天の星を一生懸命、望遠鏡で覗く姿は明日の宇宙飛行士になるかもしれませんよね。
またいつでもマウイに戻ってきて下さいね!

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.

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!

My husband and I heard wonderful things about the Haleakala sunrise, and knew that it was going to be one of our activities on our honeymoon. However, we knew that the bike tour option was a little more daring than we had hoped. After doing some research and finding this tour, we knew that this was the route we wanted to take.
The tour picked us up EARLY (just before 2am), and we boarded the bus. On the way up, our driver gave us the "disclaimer," that nobody can control the weather except mother nature, and it will either be crystal clear and beautiful...or...cloudy and disappointing. Luckily for us, it was, quite literally, PERFECT.
As the sun rose, the colors changed so beautifully and two native Hawaiians sung a traditional chant. We stayed for a few more pictures, then took the bus from the lookout point to summit (quick drive), then stopped at another lookout point before heading down to breakfast.
If you are going to Maui, make sure you take this trip!

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.

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.

My husband and I participated the day after our arrival in Maui, but due to bad weather, we couldn't see the stars at the summit because it was foggy. We returned and rescheduled for two days later to try again.
I heard that the only way to do a comeback with just the cost of lunch and the national park entrance fee (a total of $15) is through Maui All Stars.
Two days later, the weather improved, and we were able to see a sea of clouds, a beautiful sunset with the green flash, the shadow of the Earth, and a bright moon close to full moon, along with a moonbow that can only be seen when there is no water vapor in the distance.
Our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, mentioned that since the full moon was approaching, the stars were not as visible as usual, but we were still able to see many stars, including those not visible in Japan, the profile of Mickey on the moon, and the stripes of Jupiter.
While listening to explanations under the stars, they provided chairs, large blankets, and warm tea, allowing us to lean back and slowly gaze at the stars. Standing and looking up can be tiring on the neck, but sitting in a chair is very comfortable.
This is also a thoughtful gesture from Mr. Yamauchi based on his experience. He set up the telescopes and arranged chairs for the participants without even having lunch himself. It's no surprise that many people have commented on Mr. Yamauchi's character in their experiences.
Since I don't often have the opportunity to see stars, I had a very valuable experience thanks to Mr. Yamauchi. Next time, I would like to participate when it is as far from the full moon as possible.
Thank you very much.
主人と二人でマウイ到着翌日に参加しましたが、悪天候のため頂上まで行っても霧がかかっていて星は見られる状態ではなく帰ってきて、スケジュールを空けていた2日後にリベンジしました。
お弁当と国立公園の入園料(計$15)のみでリベンジできるのは、マウイオールスターズだけだと聞いています。
2日後は天候も回復して、雲海、美しいサンセットと共にグリーンフラッシュ、地球の影、そして満月近くの明るい月と遠くに水蒸気が発生していないと見えないムーンボウまで見ることができました。
ガイドの山内さんは満月が近いから星がいつもよりは見えていないとおっしゃいますが、星もたくさん見ることができ、日本では見えない星、月面の横顔ミッキー、木星の縞模様も見られました。
たくさんの星を見ながら説明を聞く時は、イスと大きいブランケット、温かいお茶を用意して下さるので、背もたれに頭を預けて上を向いてゆっくり星が見られます。
立って上を見ていると首が疲れますが、イスに座るととても楽チンです。
これも山内さんのご経験からの心遣いです。
お弁当も食べずに参加者のためにイスを出して望遠鏡などをセットしていらっしゃいました。
体験談で山内さんのお人柄にふれている方が多いのも納得です。
普段なかなか星を見る機会がないので、山内さんのお陰でとても貴重な体験ができました。
次回はなるべく満月から遠い時に参加したいと思います。
ありがとうございました。
After all, since it's a job that ensures you can see the starry sky properly, we can't use the weather as an excuse. I'll do my best until you are moved! (laughs)

It's also appealing that you can reach the summit in just an hour and a half from the base. However, since it's 3,000 meters high, please take your time going up.

However, those with a slight cold should be cautious! I ended up with acute aerotitis media and had to have my eardrum surgically opened after returning home.
Next time, I would love to see the summer night sky!

If you are feeling under the weather, climbing to 3,000 meters may worsen your symptoms due to the change in air pressure. Please consult us before your ascent. How have you been feeling since then? I am concerned.
風邪気味のかたは3000メートルに登りますので、気圧の関係で症状が悪くなる事もあります。

He was very polite, informative and over all was great. We were on time for everything and he kept everyone interested. I'm glad we chose to do this, because being our first time in Hawaii I would not have wanted to drive the mountain in the early hours of the morning. I would definitely go back again.

毛布、コート、手袋を貸して頂けますが、タイツかロングソックスをで足元をもうちょっと暖かくして行けば良かったと思いました。ゴツゴツした岩場も少しありましたが、足を捻ったりしない自信があれば全然ヒールでも大丈夫だと思います。お勧めです♪
There are breathtaking views that you can't usually see at the top of the mountain. It's a shame that we couldn't see the sunset that day because of the clouds. I didn't expect it to be that cold at the summit! Please come fully equipped next time. I'm looking forward to our reunion.
普段見れない絶景が山の上にありますよね。この日サンセットは雲が多くて見れなかったのが残念です。
山頂はあれほど寒いとおもいませんですよね~。次回は完全装備でいらしゃってくださいね。
再会を楽しみにしております。

The view from Haleakalā was truly amazing. The sunset changes its expression from day to day, and the starry sky was unlike anything I've ever seen; it's beyond words.
Also, our guide, Yamapee, had such a pleasant personality. His attentive service, guidance at the location until our arrival, and the insider tips about Maui made for an experience that exceeded my expectations.
The warm clothing provided was great, and there was nothing to complain about—both the outdoor bento and the grilled ice were wonderful!
ハレアカラの絶景は、本当に最高でした。その日その日によって表情を変えるサンセット、今まで見たことがない程の星空、言葉になりません。
そしてガイドのYamapeeさんの人柄がとても心地よいです。
気配りの届いた対応、到着までの場所でのガイド、マウイのお得情報も聞くことができ、思った以上の素晴らしい体験ができました。
防寒具も充実で悪いとこナシです~、幕の外弁当もグリグリアイスも良かった~
It's better to climb the mountain slowly to avoid altitude sickness. Moreover, if you have a little donut or take a detour to eat ice cream along the way, you'll feel really energized and can reach the summit. The Grigri Ice in Maui, which is the only one in the world, is exquisite. It's the greatest happiness to hear our customers' requests and for them to enjoy the tour and leave feeling moved.
山はゆっくり登った方が高山病にならないのです。
しかもお腹に少しドーナッツか、寄り道してアイスクリームなどを
食べて行くと本当に元気で山頂に行けます。
マウイに一軒しかない、いや世界に一軒のグリグリアイスは絶品です。笑
お客様のご要望が聞けて、ツァーを楽しんで感動して
お帰りになって頂くのが一番の幸せです。

This was a completely unique experience. The beauty and grand experience of the sunrise over the volcano was breathtaking. Bob, our guide, was prompt, courteous and entertaining while being very attentive to the difficult road conditions. He also gave us suggestions about places to eat and things to do during our stay.We throughly enjoyed the tour and would do it again.

I went to Maui for the first time and participated in the Haleakalā sunset and stargazing tour. There were four of us: a group of three consisting of a mother and her two daughters, and me. It was nice to have fewer people, making it more relaxed. The moon was out, so the visibility of the stars wasn't great, but the sunset was beautiful. I was able to have a valuable experience. Next time, I would like to go during the new moon.
始めてマウイ島に行きましたので、ハレアカナのサンセット星空ツアーに参加しました。
参加していたのは、母と娘さん二人の3名のグループと私の4人でしたが、人が多いよりゆったりしていて良かったです。
月が出ていたので、星空の見えぐわいは、今一でしたが
サンセットは、よく見えました。
貴重な体験をする事が出来ました。次に行く時は、新月の時に行きたいと思いています。
Thank you for your hard work the other day.
The moonlight scatters the stars, doesn't it?
A starry sky is best during a new moon.
I look forward to our next meeting.
先日はお疲れ様でした。
月の明かりは星を散らしてしまいますよね。
満天の星空は新月がベストです。
次の再会を楽しみにしています。

We participated in a tour as a family.
Although the clouds were thick at the summit of Haleakalā and we couldn't see the sunset, we were able to witness a wonderful starry sky.
The starry sky at 3,000 meters on Haleakalā was truly amazing.
The tour owner, Mr. Yamauchi, guided us into the wonderful world of the stars.
Thank you for a very lovely time.
Many people have participated in this tour, and wonderful things and miracles are happening.
I was also able to see a magnificent sight under the starry sky.
I am grateful for such a wonderful encounter.
ファミリーでツアーに参加しました。
ハレアカラの山頂は雲が厚くてサンセットは見る事ができませんでしたが
素晴らしい星空を見る事が出来ました^^
3000mのハレアカラでの星空はすごくステキでした。
ツアーオーナーの山内さんが星空の素晴らしい世界に導いてくださいます。
とてもステキな時間をありがとうございました。
たくさんの方がこのツアーに参加して素晴らしい事や奇跡が起こっています。
私も星空の下で素晴らしい光景を見る事が出来ました。
とてもステキな出会いに感謝です。
It has already been over ten years since the star tour began, and I am grateful for the many customers who have joined us. I hope to create moments that bring tears of emotion under this starry sky. It makes me happy to see everyone's expressions soften after the tour, as they become close like in "Ainori" and feel sad to part ways.
もうすでに星ツァーも10年以上が経ち、
色々なお客様がいらっしゃてくださっていて感謝です。
何か自分からこの星空の中で涙がこぼれるような感動が出来たらと思っています。
ツァーが終わった後の皆さんの表情が優しくなってる事
”あいのり”のように仲良くなって別れを惜しんでいるのが嬉しいのです。

First, I was filled with the stars in the sky. The Milky Way was clearly visible, and shooting stars appeared so quickly that I didn't even have time to make a wish; it was a series of breathtaking moments. I was well-prepared for the cold, and at just the right time, warm tea was served, making me forget the chill as I looked up at the sky. The warm bento was delicious as well. I encountered stars I had never seen before, like the red star and the butterfly star. I would love to participate again.
まずは満天の星に満堂しました。
Milky Wayが鮮明に観え、流れ星も祈る間も無い速さで現れ感動の連続でした。
寒さ対策も万全で、タイミングよく暖かいお茶が出て寒さを忘れて顔は天を仰いだままでした。
暖かいお弁当も美味しかったです。
赤い星、蝶の星など初めての星の出会いもありました。
また参加したいです。
I was sitting in a chair with a blanket over my knees, enjoying warm tea and the starry sky, when I noticed a customer peacefully sleeping the other day. (laughs) Comfortable moments are very important, aren't they? I'm looking forward to our next meeting.
イスに座ってひざ掛けをかけて、暖かいお茶を飲み
満天の星空を堪能していましたら、先日お客様が気持ち良く

After completing the 2012 Maui Marathon, I participated with my important partner. Initially, I was worried about whether I could enjoy it after running, but with Yamauchi-san's excellent guidance and the beautiful sunset, all the fatigue from the marathon disappeared.
Later, I couldn't stop crying at the starry sky, which looked like a treasure chest turned upside down against the pitch-black night sky. Thanks to the techniques of our guide Yamauchi-san, we miraculously got to see Saturn, which was truly amazing!
This was the first time I had such a wonderful experience, and I feel like it changed my perspective on life. I also fell in love with Maui, the sky, and the mountains thanks to the best tempura (laughs) and the fantastic guide. I'm really glad I could share this experience with my important partner. I want to participate again with someone special. Thank you, Yamauchi-san and all the staff!
2012年マウイマラソンを完走した後に大切なパートナーと参加しました。当初は走った後に楽しむことができるのかが不安でしたが、山内さんの最高のガイドと美しいサンセットでマラソンの疲労も吹っ飛びました。
その後、漆黒の夜空にまるで宝石箱をひっくりがえしたような星空に涙が止まりませんでした。
ガイドの山内さんのテクニックのおかげで、奇跡的に土星もみることができ本当に最高!でした。
このような素晴らしい体験は産まれて初めてで、人生観が変わった気がします。
また最高の天プラ(笑)と最高のガイドでマウイ、空、山を最高に好きになりました。
この経験を最高に大切なパートナーと参加できて本当によかったです。
また、大切な人と参加したいです。
山内さん、スタッフのみなさんありがとうございました。
When everything around you is enveloped in stars, for some reason, the time you are alive feels truly precious. There will be times when the two of you argue, but in this vast universe, it feels trivial. Please spend your time together happily.
見れるところ全てが星に包まれると、なぜか
生きている時間が本当に貴重に感じるものです。
お二人で喧嘩する時もこれからあるでしょう、、でも
この大きな宇宙ではささいなものに感じます。
ずっと幸せな時間を過ごしてくださいね。

The day after the Maui Marathon, I participated with my husband.
Aside from the sunset, I was moved by the countless stars we could see. We were even shown Saturn and Mars by Mr. Yamauchi, which we could never see in our everyday lives. I believe everyone who joined the tour was satisfied.
Also, there was a group of three lively and powerful ladies from Osaka who participated in the same tour, and it made me think that I want to stay energetic and positive no matter how old I get. Mr. Yamauchi also joked several times, "Osaka ladies are interesting. Is it Yoshimoto?" I fell in love with Maui.
マウイマラソンの翌日に主人と参加しました。
サンセットもさる事ながら、無数の星が見られた事に感動しました。
普段では絶対に見る事ができない、土星や火星も山内さんに見せて頂きました。
ツアーに参加されたみなさん、満足されたと思います。
また、同じツアーに大阪から参加されていたのおばさま三人組の方が気さくでパワフルで、私も何歳になっても元気で前向きにいたいなあ・・・と思いました。
山内さんも「大阪のおばちゃんは面白い。吉本ですか~?」と何度もつっこまれていましたね。
マウイ島、大好きになりました。
Thank you for your hard work at the Maui Marathon.
It's wonderful to be able to run together as a couple.
When I asked what would happen if one of you fell behind while running together, I couldn't help but laugh at the response: "Of course, I'll just keep running!"
I look forward to seeing you again after next year's Maui Marathon. Haha!
マウイマラソンお疲れ様でした。
夫婦で走れるのは素晴らしいですよね。
一緒に走っている時に一人が遅れたらどうするのですか?と聞いたら
勿論おいて走ります!には笑えました。
また来年のマウイマラソン後にお持ちしています。笑

Since I attended with a child under three years old, I was a bit worried about whether it would be okay, but I enjoyed the donuts, appreciated that they had prepared warm clothing for small children, and saw some unique clocks at the shops we visited. The beautiful sunset and starry sky were, of course, wonderful, but the guide's attention to detail was impressive. My child was also very happy.
Personally, I found the information shared during the drive (stories about life on Maui, discussions about Haleakalā, etc.) to be very interesting and engaging. I usually fall asleep in the car, but I didn't have a moment to doze off.
My mother, who joined me and is in her 60s, also said she had a great time. She was surprised by the specialized astronomy discussions (which were very easy to understand!) and the appearance of a professional telescope, as she thought we would just be looking at the stars. I had imagined simply gazing at the night sky as well (which is already beautiful), so I was surprised too.
They provided a Japanese bento box and tea for dinner, along with candy for dessert, making it a truly satisfying tour. Watching the sunset over the 360-degree horizon and the beautiful starry sky made me forget the hustle and bustle of life in Japan, and I felt refreshed.
I think $160 per person (including hotel pickup) is a great deal. I would love to participate again if I have the opportunity. Lastly, I want to thank our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, for all his help. Thank you very much!
3歳以下の子供を連れての参加だったため、本当に大丈夫かなと不安な面もありましたが、ドーナッツを頂いたり、防寒具を小さい子供用にまで準備して頂いていたり、立ち寄ったお店で珍しい時計を見せて頂いたり、きれいなサンセットや星空は無論素晴らしかったですが、細かいところまでガイドさんの心遣いが行き届いていました。本人も喜んでいました。
個人的には、道中、車中での案内(マウイ島の生活の話、ハレアカラ山の話など。。)もとても面白く、興味深くお聞きしました。私はいつもは車中では寝てしまうのですが、寝る間もなかったです。
一緒に参加した60代の母もとても楽しかったと喜んでいました。星空をただ見るだけと思っていたので、専門的な天文学のお話(ですがとてもわかりやすい!)や本格的な望遠鏡の登場には驚いたと言っていました。私もただ星空を見上げることを想像していた(それでも十分キレイですが。)のでびっくりしました。
夕食に日本食のお弁当とお茶、食後の飴まで用意して頂き、本当に大満足のツアーでした。360度の地平線に沈むサンセット、美しい星空を眺めて、日本での生活のめまぐるしさを忘れて、心があらわれるような気分でした。
これで一人160ドル(ホテル送迎付)はお安いと思います。また機会があればぜひ参加したいです。最後になりましたがガイドの山内さん、本当にお世話になりました。どうもありがとうございました。
I love that I resonate with children; I also adore clocks with moving dials. (laughs) Your child was very honest and straightforward. To prevent altitude sickness on the way, it's safer to have something in your stomach, even if it's just a little. When everyone sees this starry sky from the city, I'm sure a moment of reset will come at the summit. Please feel free to come back to Maui anytime. I'm looking forward to our reunion.
子供と波長が一緒なのか、自分も文字盤が動く仕掛け時計が大好きです。笑
とっても素直なお子さんでしたよね~。
行きのドーナッツも高山病にならないように、
少しでも何かお腹に入っていたほうが安全です。
皆様が都会からこの満天の星空を見た時には、
山頂できっと自分のリセットのひと時が訪れます。
いつでもまたマウイに遊びに来てくださいね。
再会を楽しみにしています。
