I enjoyed the journey as well. 途中も楽しめた

Reviewed by: mally

The weather was somewhat cloudy, but the clouds were beautifully dyed by the sunset, creating a lovely gradient. The photo-taking and explanations were precise, allowing us to enjoy the experience efficiently in the cold at the summit in a short amount of time. The tour's included down jacket was very helpful. Unfortunately, stargazing was nearly impossible due to the heavy clouds.

After everyone gathered, during the first break, the guide asked everyone where they were from, which made it easy for guests to converse with each other afterward. The second break was at Foodland, where it was great to be able to choose our own dinner instead of having a standard bento. We also had a little shopping time, and I bought some recommended Kona coffee.

The third break for altitude acclimatization was taken at the Clara Lodge, where we had several restroom breaks. We also enjoyed the rest stops as we ascended to 3,000 meters.

曇り気味の天気でしたが、雲が夕陽に染まり綺麗なグラデーションを見れました。写真撮影・説明が的確で山頂の寒い中、短時間で効率よく満喫出来ます。ツアー付属の防寒ダウンがとても助かりした。残念ながら星の観測は雲が多くほぼ不能。
全員集合後、最初の休憩時に全員に声をかけて何処から来たか等の質問をしてくれるので、ゲスト同士のその後の会話が楽に出来ました。2回目の休息はフードランド、夕飯を自分で選べ一律のお弁当でないのはとても嬉しいです。少しの買い物時間も貰え、オススメのコナコーヒーを買いました。
高地順応の為の3回目の休息はクラロッジでとり、トイレ休憩が多く取られていました。3000メートルまで上がるための休憩も楽しめました。

Haleakalā Summit Tour: Sunset Viewing + Stargazing ハレアカラ山頂観光ツアー サンセット観賞+星空観測

Reviewed by: ひまりん

I had been looking forward to the tour even before arriving in Maui! I was also very excited to meet our tour guide, Mr. Yamauchi. When I met him, he turned out to be a very warm-hearted person, and I was really happy with the subtle touches that matched the location. Unfortunately, due to the full moon, we couldn't see the starry sky, but listening to the stories while gazing at the stars felt like a cleansing experience, and I couldn't stop crying... it was quite a challenge. I hope to come back someday to see the star-filled sky again and have my revenge!!

マウイに着く前から楽しみにしていたツアー!ツアーガイドの山内さんにお会いするのもとても楽しみでした。お会いしてみると、とてもハートフルな方で、その場所にあったさりげないいろんな演出(?)がとても嬉しかったです。残念なことに満月だった為、満点の星空は見られませんでしたが、星を眺めながら聞いたお話は心を洗われたかのように、涙が止まらなくなってしまい……困りました。いつかまた満天の星を見に、リベンジしたいと思います!!

I couldn't see it. 見れなかった

Reviewed by: さされぼ

I was really looking forward to the tour, but unfortunately, the weather was bad, and I couldn't see the sunset or the stars (tears). I had been optimistic because I read in various places that "even if the weather is bad at the base, it clears up at the summit, so the chances of clear skies are quite high," but I guess things like this can happen.

I heard that I could have a chance to do it again, but I didn't quite understand the system. Is it similar to the "if you can't see dolphins, it's free next time!" kind of deal that you often see with dolphin watching?

The guide, Yamapi, was just as great as the reviews said, and he told us about various recommended souvenirs. Among them, the organic honey was incredibly delicious and has received great reviews from my family.

The guide was good, and we had a nice view of the sea of clouds, plus there were plenty of restroom breaks, so there were many positives. However, since I didn't get to experience the main event at all, I feel like I don't have much to say about it.

とても楽しみにしていたツアーでしたが、天候が悪くサンセットも星も見えませんでした(涙)「麓で天気が悪くても雲を抜けるので山頂はかなりの晴天率」と色んな所に書いてあるので楽観的になってましたがこんなこともあるのか、と。
リベンジできるとのお話だったのですが、システムがよくわからず。イルカウォッチングなどでよく見かける見れなければ次回無料!的なものなんでしょうか?

ガイドのヤマピーさんは評判どおりの方で、おすすめのお土産など色々教えてもらえて、中でもオーガニック?の蜂蜜がとても美味しく、家族からも評判です。

ガイドさんは良かったし雲海までは綺麗に見れたしトイレ休憩も多くて色々良かったですが、何しろメインディッシュが何も体験できてないので感想の言いようがないかな?って感じです

Celebrating my wife's 60th birthday at the summit of Haleakalā! 妻の還暦祝いをハレアカラ山頂で!

Reviewed by: 誕生日を祝って!

Although it was unfortunately rainy on the day of our visit, I had an amazing time with the guidance of YAMAPEE. We drove slowly up to the summit of Haleakalā (about 3,000 meters), and while I had some concerns about my physical condition, I reached the top in no time while listening to Mr. Yamauchi's guidance. Along the way, we had a lot of fun shopping for recommended coffee and Maui onion-flavored potato chips at the shopping center and Kula Lodge. Although we couldn't do stargazing at the summit, I would love to try again with YAMAPEE's guidance.

当日は生憎の雨模様でしたが、YAMAPEEさんのガイドで本当に最高の時間を過ごすことができました。ハレアカラ山頂(約3,000m)へは車でゆっくり上っていきますので、体調に少し不安はありましたが、山内さんのガイドを聞いているうちに山頂まであっという間に到着しました。途中、ショッピングセンターやクラロッジでお勧めのコーヒーやポテトチップ(マウイオニオン味)などの買い物など、とても楽しくお土産を買うことができました。山頂では星空観察はできませんでしたが、またYAMAPEEさんのガイドでリベンジしたいです。

I was able to enjoy various landscapes. 色々な景色を楽しめました

Reviewed by: ぶ~こ

The Haleakalā volcano had great weather, and I was able to see breathtaking views of the sea of clouds, sunset, and starry sky. I could see many stars that I can't see in Japan, filling the sky. While listening to explanations about various stars, we observed them through a telescope. The elementary school children were also moved by the starry sky and seemed to enjoy stargazing while listening to our guide (Yama-chan).

Additionally, on the way to Haleakalā volcano, our guide provided us with information about Maui and recommendations for delicious restaurants, which were very helpful for our subsequent sightseeing. We also stopped at a donut shop, a local supermarket, and a souvenir shop at a farm, so we enjoyed shopping as well. There were restrooms available at each stop, and there are also restrooms at Haleakalā volcano, so I felt comfortable participating since I often need to use the restroom.

ハレアカラ火山はお天気もよく、雲海、サンセット、星空と全て感動の景色が見れて最高でした。日本では見れないたくさんの星を、空いっぱいに見ることができました。色々な星について説明を聞きながら、望遠鏡で星を観測します。小学生の子供達も満天の星空に感動し、ガイドさん(山ちゃん)の説明を聞いて楽しそうに天体観測していました。また、ハレアカラ火山までの道中、ガイドさんからマウイ島に関する情報や美味しいお店の情報などを教えてくれたので、その後の観光にも大変役立ちました。
途中ドーナッツ屋さん、地元のスーパー、農園のお土産屋さんにも立ち寄るので、買い物も楽しめました。トイレは立ち寄りの度に行けますし、ハレアカラ火山にもあるので、トイレが近い私も安心して参加できました。

Thank you, guide! ガイドさん、ありがとう!

Reviewed by: ママさん

I was able to talk with the other participants at the first donut shop we visited, which made me feel a sense of closeness, and that was great. We climbed slowly to the summit while taking breaks, so we were able to reach the top without any issues. I enjoyed listening to the guide's fun stories and personal anecdotes, and I had a wonderful time. Unfortunately, the sunset turned out to be a sun hidden behind the clouds, but the change in the colors of the sky was moving. Thank you very much.

最初に立ち寄ったドーナツやさんで参加者の皆さんとお話しできたので親近感がわき、良かったです。山頂までは、休憩しながらゆっくり上っていくので、問題なく山頂まで登れました。ガイドさんの楽しいお話や身の上話なども聞かせていただき、楽しい時間を過ごせました、サンセットは残念ながら雲に沈んでいく夕日になってしまいましたが、空の色の変化は感動的でした。
ありがとうございました。

Gambling tour ギャンブルツアー

Reviewed by: くろねこ

I participated in the tour, but the weather was bad, and I couldn't see anything—not even the stars or the scenery. It was a tour where I didn't understand what I was there for. There was no explanation at the time of booking, and on the day of the tour, I was told that I might not be able to see anything. If that was the case, there could have been options to switch to another tour, which is very disappointing. I invested time and money into what could be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so I would have appreciated at least a prior confirmation or a disclaimer. It was truly ruined. I believe tours with such a strong element of chance should not be sold.

ツアーに参加しましたが天気が悪く星どころか景色も何も見えない状態で何しに行ったんだかわからないツアーでした。予約する時点では説明がなく、当日になって、見られないかもしれないとのことだったんですが、それなら別のツアーに振り返るとか方法があったのに、と思うと非常に残念です。こちらは一生に一度かもしれないツアーに時間もお金をかけてきているのでせめて事前に念書をとるとか確認が欲しかったです。本当に台無しでした。このようなギャンブル要素が強いツアーは売るべきではないと思います。

Haleakalā Summit Tour: Sunset Viewing + Stargazing ハレアカラ山頂観光ツアー サンセット鑑賞+星空観測

Reviewed by: いぬぽち

On the day of the event, the weather was cloudy, and I was worried about whether I would be able to see the stars. As I got closer to the summit, I entered a sea of clouds and thought it would be impossible. Suddenly, I broke through the clouds into a blue sky, and I was delighted to see the sky I had hoped for. However, the parking lot at the top was full, so I had no choice but to go down to around 2,000 meters to see the stars. When I arrived at the lower parking lot, I could see the stars, but after a while, clouds occasionally covered them, so unfortunately, it wasn't a sky full of stars. However, the guide, Yamapi, was very enthusiastic, and I am very grateful for his clear explanations.

当日は曇りがちの天候で、星が見えるか心配していました。
山頂に近づくにつれ、雲海の中に入り、やっぱりダメかと思っていたところ、
急に雲を抜け青空になり、期待通りの空が広がってうれしくなりました。
ところが、頂上の駐車場が満車で、仕方なく2,000M付近まで下って星を見る
ことになりました。下の駐車場に着いたときには星が見えていたのですが、
しばらくすると雲が時々かかり、残念ながら満天の星というわけにはいきませんでした。しかし、ガイドのやまピーさんはとても熱心な方で、わかりやすい説明などに大変感謝しています。

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>

The best location. 最高のロケーション

Reviewed by: 鉄中団 住職

Unlike horseback riding experiences in Japan, after a brief explanation, we headed to the ride course. At first, going downhill was a bit scary. The horse often slipped its feet, but I didn't fall. Once I got used to it, I thought it was manageable.

The weather wasn't very good, but the location was fantastic. In the second half, we went uphill, and there was a part where we dashed, which was thrilling. I am satisfied.

日本での乗馬体験とは違い簡単な説明の後、ライドコースへ
最初は、下り坂でちょっと怖いですね。馬も足を滑らせる事がよくりますが、転ぶことはありません。慣れるとこんなものかと思いました。
天気があまり良くありませんでしたが、ロケーションは最高でした。
後半は、山登り、途中でダッシュをするところがありましたが、スリリングでした。満足しています。

Absolutely recommended!!!! 絶対オススメ!!!!

Reviewed by: ただし

The day before was cloudy, and I was worried about the rain in the evening, but on the day of the tour, we had clear blue skies. The trade winds that were blowing in the morning died down in the afternoon, and the guide, Yamapi, said it was the best conditions possible, with no moon in sight, allowing us to fully enjoy the sunset and stargazing. There were also repeat customers who had come many times before, and I felt that if you come all the way to Maui, you must participate in this tour. The breathtaking sunset over the ocean and the stunning starry sky were continuous sources of amazement. The hospitality was top-notch, with warm clothing, blankets, chairs, and hot tea provided. On the way to Haleakalā, we stopped at several shops, but instead of a forced souvenir shop tour, we were given recommendations for truly worthwhile items. They mentioned that if the weather is bad, a re-do is possible, so you should prioritize signing up for this tour above all else. If you have a digital camera, make sure to bring it along. Thank you, Yamapi!

前日が曇りで、夕方には雨まで降ってどうなるか心配だったのですが、ツアー当日は雲なしの青空、午前中に吹いていた貿易風も午後にはやみ、月も出ていないというこれ以上の条件はないとガイドのヤマピーも言うほどの最高のコンディションの中でサンセット及び星空観測を堪能させてもらいました。同じツアーに、もう何度も来ているというリピーターの方々もいて、マウイまで来てこのツアーに参加しないのは一体何しに来ているのかと思うほど満足しました。海に沈む感動のサンセットに加え、落ちてくるかと思うほどの星空に感動の連続。防寒着や毛布、椅子、温かいお茶etc.最高のおもてなしです。ハレアカラに行く途中も何軒かショップに寄ってくれるのですが、押し付けのスーベニアショップ巡りではなく、本当にお勧めの品物を教えていただきました。天気が悪い時はリベンジも可能との事ですので、すべての予定に優先して申し込むべきです。デジカメ持っている人は絶対忘れずに持っていってください。ヤマピー、ありがとうございました。

Stargazing in the frigid night sky in Maui 極寒の星空観賞 in MAUI

Reviewed by: マウイ LOVE

At sea level (below 1 meter), the temperature is 28 degrees. The tour bus picked us up right in front of the hotel lobby. Mr. Yamap greeted us with a smile. From there, all participants gathered at the donut shop. We set off towards the summit of Haleakalā. We stopped at a market along the way to buy sushi and were given tips on Maui souvenirs, and then we headed to the summit! To reach a place over 3000 meters, we took our time ascending with breaks along the way (by car). To get above the clouds, we had to pass through them. In the thick clouds where we couldn't see ahead... I wondered if we would even be able to see anything at the summit. I was filled with anxiety as we climbed. However, Mr. Yamap played music and chatted, seemingly unconcerned about the weather at the summit. Perhaps to match the age of the participants? I’m not sure, but he played songs from the '80s... They were right in our strike zone, so we enjoyed the ride. And finally... the summit! There were no clouds, and nothing obstructed our view. As dusk fell, we could beautifully observe the rare shadow of the Earth, and since it was a new moon that day, while we ate our bento in the car, it seemed Mr. Yamap was preparing telescopes and other equipment. After dinner, when we got out of the car... we were instructed not to look up until we were outside. Since the car lights were on while we ate, it seemed that looking up immediately wouldn’t allow us to see the stars clearly. Once we adjusted our eyes, the starry sky was incredibly moving...! Seriously, it was amazing. Everyone should go. I don't want to promote it too much. It's a sight rarely seen. The number of stars you might only see once in a lifetime. It makes you feel how tiny Earth is... When I saw this starry sky, all my past failures and struggles seemed insignificant...

Lastly... it is really cold at the summit. They can lend you down jackets or blankets, but if you're sensitive to the cold, it's better to bring inner layers or disposable hand warmers even when going to Hawaii. They also serve warm tea.

下界(海抜1m未満)では気温28度。ツアーバスがホテルロビー前までお迎え。山Pさんがニコニコお迎えに来てくれました。そこから、ドーナツ屋さん参加者全員集合。ハレアカラ山頂に向かって出発。途中のマーケットでお寿司などを買い込んで(マウイのお土産とかも教えてもらって)、いざ山頂へ!3000mを超える場所へ向かうには、途中の休憩を入れながらゆっくり上っていきます(車で・・)。雲の上に出るためには・・雲の中を通過しなければなりません。前方も見えないような雲の中で・・・もしかしたら山頂に行っても見えないんじゃないのかな?不安感満載で登っていくのです。しかし、山Pさんは音楽を流しながら、いろいろお話を入れて、山頂の天気のことは特に気にもせず、運転していました。参加者の年齢に合わせたのか?わかりませんが80年代の曲が・・・・。われわれのストライクゾーンの曲だったので楽しく向かいました。そしてついに・・・山頂!そこは雲もなく、目の前を遮るものはありません。夕暮れになり・・めったに見れない地球の影もきれいに観察できましたし、当日は新月で、お弁当を車内で食べている間に山Pさんは望遠鏡などの準備をしていたようです。夕食が終わって、車内から出るときに・・・下を向いて上を見ないようにとの指示。車内は車内灯をつけてお弁当を食べていたので、すぐ上を向いても星がきれいに見えないらしいです。あとは目を慣れさせて見るとすごく感動的な星空が・・・!まじ、やばいです。皆さん行ってください。あまり紹介したくないですね。めったに見れない。一生に見れるかどうかの星の数。地球なんてなんてちっぽけな・・・・・と感じます。
今までの失敗や苦労などはこの星空を見たら・・・。以上

最後に・・・山頂はマジで寒いです。ダウンとか毛布とか貸していただけますが、寒がりの人はハワイに行くのに、インナーとか使い捨てカイロとかあったほうがいいです。暖かいお茶も出してくれます。

The guide, Mr. Yamapi, was truly a wonderful person full of love. He was talkative and had a wealth of knowledge, which made my heart warm while listening to him. As part of the tour plan, we enjoyed Krispy Kreme donuts and coffee, and we also stopped by a supermarket where I could choose my favorite sushi for dinner. The stargazing experience included a romantic touch, making it an unforgettable tour with high added value. I highly recommend this tour as the number one choice for anyone visiting Maui.

ガイドの山ピーさんがとにかく愛に溢れた方で素晴らしい。お話好きで知識量も多く、話をしていて、また話を聞いていて心が温かくなった。ツアーのプランに含まれているとのことで、クリスピードーナツとコーヒーをいただいたり、スーパーに寄って自分の好きな寿司(夕食)を選ばせていただいたり。星空観測ではロマンチックな演出もあり、付加価値の高い忘れられないツアーとなった。マウイ島に行かれる方には是非おすすめしたいツアーNO.1。

Everything was great. The instructors made it fun by their sense of humor, but you could tell that they also always had safety in mind. Felt safe at all times.

I was afraid that we would be hiking up a huge mountain or something because the description states you will do a lot of walking, however they take you up the mountain in a van. The only walking that you do is front platform to platform, which isn't much. So we were glad for that.

The views from the ziplines of the ocean were amazing. Would recommend for all.

The weather is... お天気が・・

Reviewed by: sato

As forecasted, it was cloudy and very windy. Since light rain was also expected, I requested a schedule change if possible, but I received no response as the tour was confirmed to proceed on the day.

We headed towards the mountain while gradually acclimatizing to the high altitude, and we received some great souvenir information along the way. However, when we reached the gate, it was past 5 PM, and since there were no staff present, each driver had to process the entrance fee (toll) with a credit card, which caused a traffic jam.

In the end, we couldn't see the sunset, and the viewpoint of the crater was dark, so we missed the scenery of Haleakalā, which was disappointing. If we had known about this traffic situation in advance, we might have planned to pass through the gate before 5 PM. Especially since it was clear even to amateurs that the starry sky wouldn't be visible that day, seeing the crater while it was still light would have provided a different kind of excitement.

The guide's personality was impeccable, and their stories were captivating. However, despite the implication that we would be able to see the sunset, there was no mention of it at all...??

天気予報どおり、くもり、風強しでした。
小雨も予想されたので、できることなら日程変更をお願いしたのですが、
当日は催行とのことでお返事はありませんでした。
 ゆっくり高地にならしながらいきますとのことで、お得なお土産情報もいただきながら、山に向かいました。
ゲートのところで、5時を過ぎていたので、係員不在の時は、各車のドライバーが、クレカで入山料(通行料)の手続きをしなければならず、渋滞となっていました。
結局、日没も見れず、火口の展望台も暗くなって見れず、でハレアカラの風景は見れずじまいだったのが残念でした。
もしこの渋滞事情が事前にわかっているのなら、五時までにゲートを通過する計画もあったのでは、と思います。
特に、その日は星空も期待できないのは素人でもわかっておりましたので、明るいうちに火口でも見れたら、また違った感動があったと思います。
 ガイドさんのお人柄は申し分ありませんし、お話も魅力的でした。

Thank you very much for participating in our tour. We sincerely apologize for not being able to provide you with a satisfactory experience on the day of the tour.

Upon checking with the local operating company, we did not receive any reports of stars being obscured. However, if you were unable to see any stars at all, they mentioned that they would provide guidance for your next participation. We deeply regret that you could not enjoy the scenery you were looking forward to, and we share your disappointment.

Additionally, due to stricter entry regulations that have been in place since last year, the popularity of the tour has increased, making it difficult to reschedule to another date on short notice. We also apologize for not being able to respond to your email in a timely manner.

Furthermore, the summit of Haleakalā is at an elevation of 3,000 meters, which is almost the same as Mount Fuji. The weather can change rapidly due to strong winds, and sudden rain can occur. Even experienced guides with nearly 20 years of experience find it challenging to predict the weather on the day. However, we sincerely apologize for the unexpected traffic congestion that occurred that day, which prevented us from providing a satisfactory experience.

Moving forward, we will work closely with the operating company and clearly outline important points on our page to ensure that there is no discrepancy between expectations and the actual content of the tour. Thank you very much for your valuable feedback.

この度は、ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
当日はご満足いただけるご案内ができませんでしたこと、心よりお詫び申し上げます。

現地催行会社に当日の状況を確認しましたところ、星が見えないという報告は受けなかったそうですが、
星が全く見れなかった場合には、次回のご参加のためのご案内を差し上げているとのことです。
ご期待されていた景色をお楽しみいただけませんでしたこと、弊社としても心苦しく、大変残念に感じております。
また、昨年より入場規制が厳しくなったことで人気がさらに高まり直近での別日振替が困難なツアーでありますこと、
メールのご返信が間に合いませんでしたこと、重ねてお詫びいたします。

なお、ハレアカラ山山頂は標高3000mと、富士山とほぼ変わらぬ高山となり、強風による天候の変化が激しく
急な雨はもちろん、曇りが一瞬にして快晴に変わったりと、20年近いベテランガイドでも当日の天候を予測することは残念ながら困難とのことです。
しかしながら重ねて、通常は発生しない急な渋滞が当日は起きてしまい、ご満足な内容を提供することができず、誠に申し訳ございませんでした。

今後はさらに催行会社と密に連携をとり、ページ上でもご注意点などを明記し、ご期待と実際の内容に差異が生じないよう改善に取り組んで参ります。
貴重なご投稿を賜りまして、誠にありがとうございました。

3-Hour Hana Rainforest Tour with Waterfall Swim & Easy Nature Walk - Hike Maui

Easy hike with beautiful scenery

Reviewed by: Melissa

The ride up is pretty quick with a nice hike to a beautiful small waterfall. A prefect amount of time to take in the scenery before heading to our next stop. There again the prefect amount of time at the waterfall and an easy hike to and from.

The best sunset and starry sky. 最高の夕日と星空

Reviewed by: あああ

There aren't many places to walk, so you can bring elderly people along. On the way up the mountain, we enjoyed a fun car ride where we were introduced to inexpensive souvenirs at a local supermarket and heard local stories about Maui. The sunset from the summit was a breathtaking view from another world. It was wonderful. The stargazing included easy-to-understand explanations using a telescope and a laser pointer. Unfortunately, we were affected by the moonlight, but it seems that if it were a new moon, the starry sky would be amazing. I'm really glad I brought my mother and children along.

歩く所はあまり無いので、年寄りを連れて行けます。山に登る途中に、地元のスーパーマーケットで安いお土産を紹介してもらったり、マウイの地元の話が聞けて楽しい車中でした。山頂からの日没は、別世界の風景でした。素晴らしいです。星空観察は、望遠鏡やレーザーポインターを使った分かりやすい説明でした。生憎月明かりの影響を受けましたが、新月だったら、すごい星空だそうです。母と子供を連れてきて、本当に良かった。

Sunset & Stargazing サンセット&星空観測

Reviewed by: ホセさん

I participated during the waxing crescent moon in December. The starry sky was beautiful, and the explanations were interesting. There were high-performance telescopes that allowed us to see things that are hard to see with the naked eye, making it a great experience. I wish I could have seen the starry sky during the new moon. The sunset was viewed from halfway up the summit of Haleakalā. The scenery was breathtaking. During my visit, there was no option for Grigori Ice, only Krispy Kreme donuts.

12月の上弦の月の時期に参加しました。星空は綺麗で解説も面白かったです。望遠鏡も高性能のものがあって中々肉眼では見れないものが見れ、いい経験でした。願わくば、新月の時の星空を見たかったです。サンセットはハレアカラの山頂途中から眺める感じでした。景色は絶景です。私の時はグリグリアイスのオプションはなく、クリスピークリームのドーナッツでした。

I was moved by the beautiful starry sky and the stories from our guide, Yamapi. きれいな星空と、ガイドのヤマピーさんのお話に感動

Reviewed by: ハワイ好き

I participated on November 19, 2017. Fortunately, there were only four of us: my husband and I, plus an older couple, along with our guide Yamapi's wife as an assistant, allowing for a more intimate experience. After being picked up at the hotel, we drove through the town of Lahaina, hearing about the delicious and not-so-good restaurants there. We made a stop at Krispy Kreme for a break and enjoyed some freshly made donuts.

After that, we bought sushi bento at a supermarket (both the donuts and the bento were included in the tour price), and we headed to our destination. At the Kula Lodge, we purchased souvenirs that can only be found there (though I wondered if they might also be sold at the airport or in Waikiki, the items we bought seemed truly unique). Along the way, we saw a volcanic crater and gradually acclimated to the altitude before reaching the summit.

The initial location we aimed for was very crowded, so we parked in a less populated area, watched the sunset, and after eating the bento we purchased in the car, we enjoyed stargazing. That night, there was almost no moonlight, resulting in a perfect starry sky! Even I, who usually have no interest in stars, was moved. Under the starry sky, I also heard about Yamapi's background. He has faced many struggles to get to where he is now, and since I came on this trip while dealing with significant stress at work, I secretly cried while listening to his story in the dark.

Five years ago, when I went to Mauna Kea on the Big Island, I struggled with the thin air, but this time, I had no issues at all. My first visit to Maui was amazing!!! It might be difficult to return, but I would love to participate again somehow. For those considering this tour, please prepare for the cold!

*By the way, although this tour does not stop there, I highly recommend Ruth's Chris Steak House in Lahaina! Our guide Yamapi also recommended it (there are several locations in Waikiki). Personally, I think it's better than Wolfgang Puck's.

2017/11/19に参加しました。
ラッキーなことに客は私達夫婦+年配のご夫婦の計4人、それにガイドのヤマピーさんの奥様がアシスタントで参加されて少人数で回ることができました。
ホテルでピックアップ後、ラハイナの街を車で通り、ラハイナのおいしいお店・まずいお店をお聞きしながら、休憩兼ねてクリスピークリームドーナツに立ち寄り、出来立てのおいしいドーナツをいただきました。
その後スーパーでお寿司のお弁当を購入し(ドーナツもお弁当もツアー代に含みます)、いよいよ目的地へ向かいます。
クラロッジでは、そこでしか買えないお土産を購入(実は空港やワイキキでも売ってたりして?と思ったけど私たちが買った物は本当にどこにもなさそうでした)、途中火口を見たり少しずつ高所に体を慣らしながら山頂に到着です。
当初向かった場所は大混雑だったため、人の少ない場所に車を止めて、サンセットを見て、車内で購入したお弁当を食べた後、星空観賞です。
その日は月明かりがほとんど無い日だったので、まさに満点の星空!
普段星になんか興味が無い私でも感動しました。
星空の下、ヤマピーさんの今までの経歴なんかもお聞かせいただきました。
とても苦労されて今がある方で、私も仕事で大きなストレスを抱えつつ今回の旅行に来たこともあり、真っ暗闇なのを良いことにこっそり泣きながら話に聞き入っていました。
5年前、ハワイ島のマウナケアに行った時は空気の薄さにヘロヘロでしたが、そんな私でも今回のツアーは全然平気でした。
初のマウイ島、最高でした!!!再訪するのは難しいですが、何とかもう一度参加したいです。
このツアーを検討中の方、防寒準備して行ってください!

※ちなみにこのツアーで立ち寄ることはありませんが、ラハイナのルースズクリスステーキは超オススメです!ガイドのヤマピーさんもオススメしてました(ワイキキにも何店舗かあります)。
個人的にはウルフギャングよりもおいしいと思います。

The best sunset and a sky full of stars, wonderful guide. 最高のサンセットと満天の星空、すばらしいガイド

Reviewed by: シェラトンの夫婦

I was really glad to meet our guide, Yama P. We had a wonderful time discussing not only Maui and Haleakalā but also various memorable topics that touched the heart. I was drawn in by Yama P's background and the inner conflicts he shared, which made me feel a strong sense of connection. Of course, the beautiful sunset and the breathtaking starry sky were also amazing. Weather can be a matter of luck, but I was fortunate to have clear skies and stunning views during my visit.

ガイドの山Pさんに会えて本当に良かったです。マウイのこと、ハレアカラのこと、天体のことだけでなく、心に残るいろいろなことを話していただき、すばらしい時間を過ごせました。
山Pさんの経歴やご自身の中にある心の葛藤などにも引き込まれ、非常に親近感がわきます。
もちろん美しいサンセットと感動の星空も最高でした。
天候ばかりは運になってしまいますが、私のときは快晴でとても綺麗に景色が見えて非常にラッキーでした。

This tour is friendly for seniors. 熟年者にも優しいツアーです

Reviewed by: 熟年夫婦

Our group consisted of four people: my spouse and I, along with another young couple, and the guide's wife participated as an assistant. The guide, likely with a wealth of experience, had everything meticulously planned and prepared, allowing us to enjoy a safe and pleasant time. We climbed to the summit at around 3,000 meters in about an hour and a half, making stops at souvenir shops and a supermarket to choose sushi bento for dinner (included in the price) to gradually acclimatize to the altitude.

On the day of the tour, we encountered light rain on the mountainside, but with the guide's skillful driving and cheerful explanations, we reached the summit, where we found a blue sky above the clouds. We avoided crowded tourist spots and enjoyed the sunset from a quieter location, savoring sushi bento along with warm Japanese tea. Afterward, we took turns looking through telescopes while the guide explained various stars and constellations.

Two years ago, we participated in a sunset tour at Mauna Kea on the Big Island of Hawaii, where the summit is at 4,000 meters and the air was quite thin, making it difficult to breathe. In comparison, Haleakalā was much more comfortable. Additionally, there is a discount for seniors, making this tour highly recommended for older travelers.

うちの夫婦と、もう1組の若いご夫婦の計4人の客に、ガイドの奥様がアシスタントで参加されました。ガイドさんはおそらく多くの経験を積まれているのでしょう、非常に周到に計画され準備されていて、安心して楽しいひとときを過ごすことができました。3000メートル級の山頂まで1時間半ほどで登っていきますが、高度に徐々に慣れるように、土産物店に寄ったりスーパーで夕食の寿司弁当(料金に含まれています)選びに立ち寄ったりします。
当日は途中の山腹で弱雨にあいましたが、霧の中を巧みな運転で不安なく、軽快な口調の説明を聞きつつ登った山頂は、雲の上の青空でした。多くの観光客がいる場所を避けて、人が少ない場所からゆっくりとサンセットを楽しみ、暖かい日本茶のサービスとともに寿司弁当をいただいたのち、交替で望遠鏡をのぞきながら多くの星や星座を解説してもらいました。
私たちは2年前にハワイ島のマウナケアのサンセットにも参加し、マウナケアは4000メートル級で山頂の空気が薄くでかなり息苦しかったのですが、それに比べればハレアカラははるかに快適でした。また熟年者には割引料金のサービスもあり、高齢者に優しいツアーとしておすすめします。
