I visited seven years ago and was moved once again!!! This time, the season was great, and both the sunset and starry sky were breathtaking.

It truly became a wonderful memory for my husband's 60th birthday celebration. I hope to meet Yamapi again!!!

7年前に伺い、感動をもう一度！！！
今回は季節も良く、夕陽も星空も感動的なものでした。

本当に主人の還暦祝いに良い記念となりました。

Oceanfront Trail Horseback Riding Tour at Maui Mountain Activities Ranch

Absolutely LOVE it here! This was my 3rd time and I’m always impressed with how friendly and helpful everyone is. The horses are well behaved and so sweet and easy to handle (I have zero horsemanship or knowledge of horses)! Bring plenty of sunscreen, a hat to shield your face and be prepared to get dusty or dirty!

乗馬ツアー　ワイへエ渓谷を巡り、ハレアカラ山頂も望む＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞

Horseback riding at Mendes Ranch. Mendes Ranchで乗馬

Reviewed by: みゆまま

I participated with my 11-year-old daughter. Since both of us take riding lessons in Japan, we chose the longer two-hour option. Mendes Ranch is about an hour from Kaanapali. I wasn't confident in driving, so we took a taxi, which cost about $100 one way. I asked the hotel concierge to book the taxi the day before. The concierge mentioned that Uber might be cheaper, but since I had never used it, I opted for the taxi for safety. There were mentions in reviews about the steep hairpin turns on the mountain road, but perhaps because the taxi driver was skilled, I didn't feel particularly nauseous and it was comfortable.

After arriving, we checked in and could enjoy coffee while watching goats, peacocks, and chickens. The cowboy who assisted us spoke in clear English, so even if you're not good at English, I think you'll manage. The horses are well-trained, so they move along with little effort from us. We went into the mountains, where we were able to pick and eat guava and passion fruit. The horses seemed to like the passion fruit, and when we offered the leftovers, they ate them.

The view from the mountains was amazing, and we were allowed to canter up the mountain path. It might be a bit fast for beginners, which could be scary, but I think they let us do it because they knew we had experience. They also took pictures at various points along the way. During the final canter on the mountain path, they recorded a video for us.

We had a very enjoyable time. If you're comfortable driving, I think renting a car and taking your time to get there would also be fun.

11歳の娘と参加しました。私も娘も日本で乗馬を習っているので、2時間の時間が長い方を選択。メンデスランチにはカアナパリから約1時間。運転に自信がないので、タクシーを利用しました。片道約100ドル。前日にホテルのコンシェルジュに頼んで、タクシーを予約しました。コンシェルジュさんは、uberとかが安いけど…と言っていましたが、使ったことがないので、安全をとってタクシーに。体験談に山道のヘアピンカーブがきつい、とありましたが、タクシー運転手さんが上手だったからか、特に酔うこともなく、快適でした。
到着後チェックインをして、コーヒーなどを飲みながら、ヤギやクジャク、にわとりなどを見ることができます。
担当してくれたカウボーイさんは、わかりやすい英語で話してくれ、英語が苦手でもなんとかなると思います。馬たちも慣れているので、ほとんど何もしなくても動いてくれます。途中山の中に入りますが、グァバやパッションフルーツをとって食べさせてくれます。パッションフルーツは馬も好きなようで、残りをあげると食べていました。
山からの景色が素晴らしく、山道を駈歩で駆け上ったりもさせてくれます。初心者の方には速いので怖いかもしれませんが、多分経験者と知ってさせてくれたのだと思います。また、途中途中で写真を撮ってくれます。最後の山道での駈歩では、ビデオを撮ってもらいました。
とても楽しい時間を過ごしました。運転に問題ないなら、レンタカーを借りてゆっくり向かわれるのも楽しいと思います。

I participated in the Haleakalā tour for the first time with my 13-year-old daughter.

We took regular breaks, including coffee breaks, while climbing, which made us feel at ease. Women don’t have to worry about restroom facilities.

On the day of the tour, it was a new moon, and the city lights were blocked by a thick sea of clouds, creating perfect conditions. We were able to enjoy the best sunset and a sky full of stars.

Mr. Yamauchi's guiding and talks were enjoyable, and we had an unforgettable day.

I highly, highly recommend the Maui All Stars sunset viewing and stargazing tour!

13歳の娘と二人で初めてのハレアカラツアーに参加しました。

途中コーヒーブレイクなどこまめに休憩を取りながら登っていくので安心です。
女性はトイレの心配もないです。

The sun sinking into the sea of clouds was breathtaking, and the colors of the sky after it set were so beautiful that I couldn't take my eyes off it. It was divine and incredibly moving!!! I could clearly see the Mauna Kea Observatory on the summit of the Big Island to the south. The starry sky was so close and filled with countless stars, and the Milky Way was vividly visible. I was overwhelmed with emotion as I looked at Jupiter, Saturn, and the Milky Way through the telescope!!!

From sunset to the starry sky. It was an experience beyond imagination, where I could truly feel myself in the universe rather than just on Earth!

Seeing my seven-year-old son and husband discussing the grandeur of the cosmos became a lifelong memory for our family.

I highly recommend this for families with elementary and middle school children.

And everything was thanks to our wonderful guide, Yama-chan. He was kind, incredibly knowledgeable, entertaining, and even performed magic tricks, making him a favorite among the kids.

Yama-chan, who has led tours to Haleakalā 3,000 times, felt somewhat extraterrestrial!

We'll definitely come back!

サンセットから星空にかけて。地球というより宇宙の中の自分をひしひしと感じることができる想像を越える経験でした！

七歳の息子と夫が天体の壮大なロマンを語り合う姿も、家族みんなにとって一生の思い出になりました。

Maui All Stars is the best! Maui All Stars最高

Reviewed by: taka

There are many places where the starry sky is beautiful.

Many tours are not recommended because:
1) They are superficial and forced. For the guide, it's a daily job, but for customers, it's a rare and precious time.
2) There are many guides who are self-absorbed and boastful, often far removed from the customer's perspective.

However, the tour by Mr. Yamauchi, the owner of Maui All Stars, was wonderful and thoroughly pursued customer satisfaction. The sunset at Haleakalā and the starry sky were even more dazzling, captivated by the Yamauchi world.

星空が綺麗な所は他にも色々あります。

多くのツアーがNGなのは、
1) 表面的且つ強制的 ガイドにとっては毎日の仕事、でも顧客にとっては、稀有で貴重な時間です。
2) 自己顕示欲型 何故か知ったかぶりの自己自慢、自己陶酔型のガイドが多く、そういう人は、顧客視点から程遠い事が多いです。

で、今回のMaui All Starsオーナー山内さんによるツアー。
徹底的に顧客満足を追求した素晴らしいものでした。
ハレアカラの夕陽も星空も、山内worldに魅せられ、一層輝いて見えました。

In addition to regular sightseeing, I was able to enjoy not only delicious restaurant menus but also learn about places that weren't so good (laughs) and many little tips that I wouldn't have gotten from guidebooks or on my own, allowing me to have a wonderful time. The weather was nice, and although the moon was bright, I wasn't able to see as many stars as I had hoped, but the sky was still beautifully clear. It was evident that our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, was passionately dedicated to the tour, and I had a very enjoyable time. I also took many great photos. The sushi I bought at the supermarket was delicious as well. I would like to come back during the new moon next time.

普通の観光以外に美味しいお店のメニューだけでなく、美味しくないお店や(笑)、プチ情報もたくさん教えて頂けて、ガイドブックや自分たちだけでは得られない楽しい時間を過す事ができました。
お天気も良く、月が明るかったので星は思っていたよりは見られませんでしたが十分に綺麗な空でした。

A journey into breathtaking scenery. 絶景に入って行く旅

Reviewed by: yur

It was truly a wonderful and memorable trip. I couldn't believe we could drive up to over 3,000 meters! I felt that our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, who must have climbed Haleakalā many times before, was giving his all to entertain us each time. He explained the climate, weather, and history with professional knowledge, mixing in entertainment elements so that even a novice like me could understand.

It was a half-day that never got boring. The choice of background music was also lovely, adding to the extraordinary atmosphere and making the long drive feel engaging rather than dull. To be able to see the stripes of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn—it's a cliché, but it really makes you feel how vast the world is.

本当に素晴らしく、想い出に残る旅となりました。
標高3,000m以上のところまで車で上がれるとは！ガイドの山内さんは、これまで何度となく登っているはずのハレアカラなのに、毎回全力で楽しませて下さっているのだろうと感じました。気候、気象、歴史などプロフェッショナルの知識に私のような素人にもわかりやすいようエンタメ目線も交えて説明してくれました。
飽きることのない半日でした。非日常のシーンにふさわしいBGMのチョイスも素敵で、長い車移動の時間を無味乾燥なものにさせない気遣いも感じました。
木星の縞模様、土星の輪を見ることができるなんて。月並みですが、世界は広いなぁと感じます。

I will never forget the scenery and I'm grateful for the wonderful encounter with Mr. Yamapi! 一生忘れない景色、山ピーさんとの素敵な出会いに感謝！

Reviewed by: mmm

This is the number one optional tour I've participated in so far! The guide, Yamapi, really conveyed his desire for the participants to enjoy themselves, and I was moved by his hospitality. I believe this is a tour he has done many times, but I felt he delivered the best performance every time. I think that's truly amazing.

Haleakalā has an elevation similar to that of Mount Fuji, so I was a bit worried about altitude sickness, but we ascended the mountain by car with breaks along the way, which minimized the physical strain, and I had no problems at all.

The sunset viewed from the grand panorama, the shadow of the Earth, and the starry sky were beyond what can be captured in photos; the scenery I saw with my own eyes is something I will never forget for the rest of my life.

After stargazing, I felt my heart was cleansed while listening to Yamapi's stories over a warm cup of tea. Since this trip was a turning point in my life, it resonated deeply with me, and I felt motivated to keep moving forward.

Considering the history of the stars, I want to live my life to the fullest without regrets, even if it's just for the blink of an eye! I hope to bring my family here someday. Thank you so much, Yamapi!

今まで参加したオプショナルツアーの中でNo.1です！
ガイドの山ピーさんが、参加者に楽しんでもらいたいと思う気持ちが伝わってきて、そのホスピタリティにも感動しました。きっと何回も行っているツアーだと思いますが、毎回最高のパフォーマンスをされているのだなと感じました。本当にすごいことだと思います。
ハレアカラは富士山とさほど変わらない標高で、高山病なと少し心配もしていましたが、少しずつ休憩しながら車で山を上がっていくので、体の負担も最小限で、全く問題なかったです。
大パノラマで見るサンセット、地球の影、満点の星空、写真では伝えるには限界があるほど、自分の目でみた景色は、これから一生忘れることはないと思います。
スターゲイジングの後に、温かいお茶を飲みながら、山ピーさんのお話を聞いて、心が洗われた気持ちになりました。人生の分岐点での旅だったので、ぐっと刺さるものがあり、また前を向いて頑張っていこうと思えました。
星の歴史からすると、瞬き3回ほどの人生を精一杯、悔いなく生きたいと思います！
いつか家族を連れて、またここに来たいです。

Beautiful sunset, earth blue, and a starry sky! (It was close to a new moon) It was a very satisfying tour! Since it was a tour where we could move around by car, it was fine not to wear trekking shoes. I didn't imagine it would get that cold, but even with a shirt, hoodie, ultra-light down jacket, fleece-lined tights, a stole, the jacket I borrowed, gloves, and a blanket, I still felt cold. They mentioned it was good that there was no wind, but if you don't need it, you can leave everything in the car, so if you're sensitive to the cold, it's better to bring some extra layers. You can take really beautiful photos with a DSLR or mirrorless camera!

Since it's a natural experience, I can't guarantee the conditions will be perfect, but if you're going to Maui, I think this is a tour you absolutely should participate in. I definitely want to come back again.

ラナイ島観光ツアー　ラナイ島行きフェリー往復チケット付き＜英語ガイド／半日／ マアラエア港発＞

From the uninhabited island, passing through King Kamehameha's summer retreat, Pineapple Island, it is now a largely private property owned by a wealthy individual, a natural island in its original state. 無人島からカメハメハ大王の避暑地、パイナップルアイランドを経て、今は、島の大部分が大富豪の私有地という自然あるがままの島でした。

Reviewed by: ユウヤケパットマン

We gathered at the main loading dock of Lahaina Harbor, but there was no one to greet us. When I showed this voucher at the Lanai Island ferry ticket booth, it turned out that the tickets for this tour were ready there.

After a 45-minute ferry ride, we arrived at Manele Harbor, catching a glimpse of the scenic Pu'u Pehe (Sweetheart Rock) from the sea just before our arrival. We were welcomed by our 4WD tour guide (a second-generation Japanese American whose grandfather was from Fukuoka; he spoke a little Japanese and expressed a desire to visit Japan, but he had never been due to difficulties making money in Las Vegas). Our tour began with four people, including a couple from Texas.

From the ferry, it seemed like there was no sign of habitation on the island, but after climbing the mountain for about 20 minutes, we arrived at Lanai City, where most of the island's population (about 3,000 people) is concentrated. There are no buildings, no supermarkets, and only a couple of restaurants, with one movie theater. However, there are 14 churches. There are also two high-end hotels rated L. It seems that the people who stay here are not tourists but rather individuals looking to enjoy a leisurely time in a different world.

As we circled the town and headed toward the garden of the gods, Keahiakabello, we noticed neatly planted pine trees along the road, and a family of wild deer could be seen a little off the road. This area was once a pineapple farm, but part of it is now operated as a horse ranch. Along the road, there were pieces of black sheet film, likely used in the pineapple farm, scattered and contributing to environmental pollution.

As we continued north, we were jolted along a very bumpy road, characteristic of a 4WD, arriving at Keahiakabello, where red earth and large rocks or oddly shaped stones were scattered everywhere. From here, we could also see Molokai Island nearby. Our half-day tour included one more stop, where we might be lucky enough to see monk seals or honu (turtles) at a spot with a shipwreck, but unfortunately, we didn’t see any.

After leaving that location, we returned to Lanai City, said goodbye to the Texas couple on the full-day tour, and arrived at Manele Harbor just 10 minutes before our departure time, successfully boarding the ferry. The return trip was quite different from the outbound journey, as we faced significant waves during the 45-minute ride. Among the Hawaiian Islands, Lanai is small and quiet, allowing us to experience a little of the slow flow of time. Now, we are considering when to visit Molokai Island next.

ラハイナ港のメインローディングドック集合だったが、そこには、誰も迎えがなく、ラナイ島行フェリーチケット売り場でこのバウチャーを見せてみたら、ぴったしカンカン、ここで、このツアーのチケットが用意されていた。
フェリーに揺られ到着直前には、景勝地であるプウ・ペヘ（スイートハート・ロック）を海側から見ながら４５分でマネレ港に到着した。４WDツアー案内人（日系２世で祖父は福岡の出身とのことであるが、日本語は少しか話せず、一度は日本に行きたいが、ラスベガスでお金儲けできず、行ったことはないとのこと）に迎えられ、私たちとテキサスからの夫婦計４人のツアーが始まった。フェリーから見てると、どこに人が住んでいるのかという気配が全くない島であったが、２０分ほど山を登っていくと、島のほとんどの人口（約３０００人）が集結している？？ラナイシティに到着。ここには、ビルはない、スーパーもない、娯楽施設は映画館は一軒、レストランは２，３軒？、ただ、教会は１４軒あるとのこと。だが、Lグレードの高級ホテルが２軒ある。ここに宿泊される人たちは、観光ではなく、ゆったりとした時間をすごされる違う世界の人たちだと思われる。この街を周回して、神々の庭園と呼ばれるケアヒアカベロに向かい、北上していく道沿いにはパインツリーが整然と植樹されており、少し道路から離れたところには、野生のシカの家族が多く見られた。ここら一帯は、パイナップル農場だったとのことであるが、一部は馬牧場が運営されていた。道沿いには、パイナップル農場で使用していたらしい黒色のシートフィルムが細切れになり、散乱し環境汚染になっているという話があった。どんどん北上すると、さすがに４WDなのかがわかる超でこぼこ道にゆられて赤土の大地に、大きな岩や奇形の石などが至る所に散在するケアヒアカベロに到着。ここからは、すぐそこにモロカイ島も見ることができた。私たちは、半日ツアーであり、もう一か所、運が良ければ、モンクシールやホヌ（亀）に会えるとのことでシップレック（難破船）の見える場所に行き、ビーチウォークしたが、残念ながら見ることはできなかった。そこを離れ、ラナイシティに戻り１日ツアーのテキサスのご夫婦と別れ、マネレ港に出港時間の１０分前に到着し、無事、乗船できた。帰りの船は、行と異なり、かなりの大波を受けながらの４５分であった。ハワイ諸島のなかでも、こじんまりとしていて、ゆっくり時間が流れている静かな島をほんの少し体感できた。残すは、あと一つ、モロカイ島。いつ、訪れるか検討中。

The gradient of the sunset was truly beautiful and moving. The stargazing was also enjoyable, as they provided warm clothing, hot drinks, and chairs, allowing us to relax and enjoy the experience.

かなり前に参加しましたが、ハレアカラ山頂までの寄り道やドライブ、ガイドさんのトークはとても興味深く、とてもいい思い出になりました。
サンセットのグラデーションは本当にきれいで、感動しました。
星空観測も防寒具と暖かい飲み物とチェアを用意していただき、ゆったり楽しむことができました。

I visited Lanai Island, which is easily accessible by boat from Maui. It was an absolutely wonderful island that I had never imagined! It felt like a place where nature began, a place of origins.

The most amazing spot that I definitely want to visit again is Sweetheart Rock! Perhaps because of the legend of a tragic love story, the scenery is untouched and incredibly dynamic! The sky and sea are so blue! I could have gazed at it forever.

And! Our guide, Isaac, was the best! He explained everything with great effort to us, who are not very confident in English, and even took care of our lunch concerns. I am so grateful! I definitely want to join Isaac's tour again! Thank you for all the wonderful memories!

マウイ島から船で気軽に行けるという事で、ラナイ島に行ってみました。そこは、全く想像していなかったとにかく、とても素晴らしい島でした！！
地球の始まりと言うか、自然はこうやって生まれていった。みたいな・・・始まりの場所。
中でも一番素晴らしくまた訪れてみたいと思った所はスイートハート・ロック！！ 悲恋の伝説がある為か、誰も手をつけられない景観！ダイナミック過ぎる(≧∀≦)空も海も青い！ずーっと眺めていたかった。
そしてぇ！ガイドのIsaacさんが最高〜〜♪英語のおぼつかない私達にとにかく一生懸命に説明してくださり、お昼の心配までしてくれて感謝感謝です(≧∀≦)
絶対！！またIsaacさんのツアーに参加したいと思いました♪素敵な思い出を沢山ありがとうございました\( ˆoˆ )/
