Mauna Kea Stargazing Tour Experience with Free Professional Photos - Epic Tours

Stargazing Like No Other!

Reviewed by: Mara

Highly recommend this excursion. Great way to see the entire island from lava rock to waterfalls to Japanese gardens to a lave tube cave, it was all amazing. But the best part is the stargazing on Mauna Kea. Its like nothing you have experienced before. To see the sky in this way was simply inspirational. James from Epic Tours gave us a amazing tour and having pictures taken all along the way was the icing on the cake. Definitely a must do on the Big Island.

Reviewed by: Alice Chia-Hua Tsai

James was very knowledgeable and we did learn a lot about the big island. Walking in the lava cave was fun, don’t think you can do that elsewhere. The stargazing pictures he took was phenomenal! He even showed us how to take professional-looking pictures by just using iPhone! Definitely recommend this tour! You are gonna love it!

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

初めてでも大丈夫でした！

Reviewed by: さおり

午前の部に参加しました。
受付場所は、ナビつきのレンタカーなら難なく辿り着けます。
11月の参加でしたが、馬に乗っている間に暑くなったので、水は必須です。
スーパーなどで調達できなければ、受付場所の売店にも販売があったので買うことをお勧めします。
(ここでトイレを済ませておくこともお勧めします。)
ヘルメットは借りれますが、自前で帽子を持っていくこともできます。

乗馬前に、英語ガイドさんから基本的な動作について説明がありました。
英語なので分からないところもありますが、重要なところは日本語の単語も交えて説明してもらえました。
乗馬中は列の先頭と最後尾にガイドさんがいて馬を誘導してくれるので、馬がコースを外れることはほぼありませんでした。
(私は馬へのサインを間違えてしまったので外れそうになりましたが。。)
"止まれ"のサインを馬がなかなか聞いてくれないこともありましたが、危ないときはガイドさんが止めてくれたので大丈夫でした。

大自然の中、馬に乗りながら写真を撮ることができたり、ガイドさんから生えている植物の説明を聞けたりして楽しかったです。
水の中をじゃぶじゃぶ馬が歩いていくのもなかなか面白いです。
(汚れてもいいズボンで行くといいですよ)

馬に乗るのは初めてでしたが、無事に乗ることができたのでとてもいい経験になりました。

英語が分かったら、馬の扱いの説明がよく分かるので乗馬への不安がもっと少なくなったと思いますし、乗馬中の植物の説明などもよく分かってもっと面白いだろうなと思います。
不安な方は日本語のプランのほうがいいかもしれません。

茶、白、黒などの馬がいて、ガイドさんが自分に合った馬を選んでくれます。
天気が変わりやすく雨がぱらつくこともありました。

Reviewed by: Fang Xing

我在計畫大島旅行前，從網站搜尋到其他人的分享，其中有許多人推薦從www.hawaiiactivies.com訂購行程，在大島的第一天抬頭看見星星已經吸引了我，我決定找一個可以看星星的行程。我們不打算租車，因此以有接送的行程為優先考量，11/08 我們試著在網上訂 Big island Twilight Volcano Tour & Stargazing with Dinner 的行程，這個行程包含接送,午晚餐!另外的優惠就是在行程後發文分享，可以有一位的50%退款反回! 當我們試著在網上訂這個行程，因為沒有找到小孩的訂購選項，而直接打電話由Ms. Nunia 協助，她在跟技術部門溝通也確定多恩的年紀可以參加後，她打電話回覆我們，協助我們訂購2大一小(3Y5M) 的全日遊，謝謝她的幫助！第一次與這個公司交涉留下很好的印象!
11/10 我們的司機Chris 準時來接我們，在去接第二組客人時，他為我們講解沿路火山與海灘的景色，他是在這出生有少部分夏威夷原住民的血統，能遇到當地長大的居民做為我們的導遊，真是幸運！他從開始到行程結束始終掛著笑容為我們服務!
第一站是Kona 咖啡園: 在這裡我們繞了一圈咖啡園,可惜的是因為是周末,只有兩個烘培機器運轉著,途中還看見了Lava Tube,就是熔岩管,它是熔岩洞的一種,從這開始了對火山的認識。在這裡有各式免費咖啡的試飲,我試了Kona coffee medium roast 與有夏威夷豆口味所混合夏威夷咖啡,各有不同的風味!Chris 為我們在桌上準備了午餐,是亞洲式午餐有日本紫薯,魚片,雞肉與白飯,配上Kona的各式果汁! 是亞洲人喜歡的口味!
第二站到了黑沙灘看海龜:Chris 雖然不能保證是否看到海龜,一下車往海灘的方向,但我們非常期待,拉著兒子的小手往沙灘前進,踩在黑沙灘上是很特別的經驗,黑沙灘的沙是冷卻的岩漿經過風力與海水沖刷而成的,沙的顆粒很小摸起來很舒服,不過一會兒就看見一隻烏龜在沙灘上休息著,大家太过興奮靠近時,被在沙灘上的救生員喊ˇ著說”請給烏龜足夠的空間"! 在這地方有標示牌請大家給他們至少30ft 的空間,不可餵食也不可觸摸!在這片黑沙灘上是開著荷花的池塘,和諧地與海邊的景色共存著,非常美麗的景色.雖然只看見一隻海龜,還是非常值得.
第三站: 一連串的火山探險之旅,首先來到火山國家公園,Chris 分享著他在前幾個夜間所拍的照片,火紅的岩漿從洞口發出,非常驚人的景色,目前能見到的是火山停止噴發後不斷地發出的煙,這時候已經來到熱帶雨林區,天氣涼爽許多,再加上小雨落下,景色非常的特別,從海邊到山上,溫度驟降,但是貼心的Chris為大家準備了外套與雨衣,不需要擔心沒有帶外套,唯一的建議是要穿包腳的鞋子!
再來去看了crater lookout, steam vests,sea Arch 還有Chains of Craters Road.分別是火山口,蒸氣口,海邊拱門,最後在僅存的舊道路上欣賞熔岩經過的歷史痕跡! 如此接近因火山活動而產生變化的自然奇景,是來到大島時一定要參加的行程! 當我們站在舊有的道路上轉身往後一看在高處則是近期因火山活動留下的黑色的痕跡,在這Chris 找出各式不一樣型態的殘留物,仔細講解著,真的是更認識了大島!
第四站:在最後一站觀星之前,我們到了Lava Cafe享用晚餐,當魚補獲的魚排餐,牛仔骨分別配上土豆尼與白飯,兒子吃的是炒粉,免費的飲料,大家都吃得很飽! 估計是全車的亞洲客人而特別預備的餐點,接著到了Mauna Kea State Park 觀星,
一下車就已經能清楚看見滿天的星斗,透過Chris 架設的高倍望遠鏡看到了火星,邱比特星跟月球.同行有人看見了流星!
我真心推薦大家參加這個行程,不論你是一個人,兩人或親子行,都能享受從行程中帶來的樂趣與各樣的驚喜!

Umauma Falls Zipline Tour & Waterfall Swim Adventure

Amazing adventurous experience viewing much of the Big Island treasures!

Reviewed by: Swillem40

What an amazing experience!! Not only are you able to see the beauty in a fun adventurous manner but there is time and places to capture pictures in between some of the ziplines. The views are stunning and you’ll see waterfalls, rainforest, the ocean and so much more. The staff does a great job of getting everyone to open up and have a great time. They take the time to give you tips on how to do things so you get the most out of your experience. You are sure to laugh the entire time! It was great to also see so many kids on our tour who had an amazing time!
There is a little store before you start where you can get some things like souvenirs, treats, and bug spray. If you go on a rainy day I would note you could get some mud onto yourself but it is minimal. It may also be helpful to consider the equipment when dressing. Many on our tour thought it would be cooler because of the rain to start but the equipment keeps you a bit warm so many had rain coats they didn’t want. They do have some video and picture packages you are able to purchase of your tour and I recommend waiting to purchase these extras until the end of your tour to see if you like them. If you go with the GoPro camera option then you will want that ahead of time.

All strapped up and ready to go!
Awesome bridge you enjoy walking!
Beautiful view back on what you just went over.

Deluxe Volcano Unveiled Tour and Golden Lava Cave Expedition with Lunch & Dinner

Private Lava Tube is the Highlight!!!!!

Reviewed by: Nunia T.

This was the greatest experience ever! Our tour guide Justin was very knowledgeable and informative with every guests questions and the history of the island. We first drove to Mauna Kea Park and the weather was just perfect! Clear skies and a beautiful breeze. Once we arrived to the Volcano National Park, it was so nice to see the park reopened again. Beautiful scenery and but what took the cake was the private lava tube that only this activity provider has access to which definitely makes up for the fact that Thurston Lava Tube is still closed. The lava tube was breathtaking and the deeper you go in, the more treasure you unveil. THIS IS A MUST DO!!!

Waipio Valley Wagon Tour & Big Island Tropical Waterfalls Adventure [Closed]

Not the best experience

Reviewed by: laha

I will start with saying our tour guide was over 20 minutes late showing up at the Last Chance Store to pick us up (meeting place before heading down into the valley). No apologies or explanation from him either. The van we rode down in was super old and smelled very musty...we were worried it was going to fall apart! When we got down in the valley, he let us out of the van and had us stand out in the misting rain while he went to get the carriage and mules. Apparently they can't cross the creek with a full load. He said he'd return in 10 minutes. Over 20 minutes later, he returned to pick us up! Our ride was fine but very short and with the rain and fog, we couldn't see much. I don't know why they didn't cancel due to the weather...we were really robbed of the experience due to not being able to see anything. Afterwards he let us out before he crossed the creek, but this time it was actually raining. He did give us umbrellas to stand under at least. Overall, not a great experience and definitely not worth what our family of 5 paid to see!

We took the Japanese tour since the english tour was sold out. Fortunately we were bilingual so there were no issues for us. Mr. Aoki the tour coordinator was very helpful. There might be few things that you just have to laugh about.

Sadly we weren’t able to see the sunrise because of weather issues but we got to see the star gazing perfectly!!

FYI not being avle to see doesnt happen often because this tour is known for being able to see more than 300 days/year.

Mauna Kea Summit Sunrise & Stargazing Tour

Once-in-a-life kind of experience

Reviewed by: Shin Taniguchi

Many people say sunset is better than sunrise, but sunrise is great, too.
Even though we were on the tour about two days before the full-moon (meaning moonlight is very bright and moon doesn't set until about 5 in the morning), we could enjoy the gorgeous stars in the sky with decent explanation of the stars.
Sunrise was also gorgeous. It was no doubt one of the most beautiful scenaries I have ever seen in my life. Although we were lucky enough to see both stars and sunrise in good weather and it is said that we mostly see clear sky at the peak of Mauna Kea, you may have to keep in mind weather is always a variable you can never tell.

Our guides were good, with a lot of experience and knowledge, trying to do their best to make the tour enjoyable.

If you are okay to go to bed early on the day before and can wake up at 1:30 in the morning, it will let you spend your time more wisely because you have a whole day even after you come back from the tour. (we came back to the hotel around 8:30 am)

Also be noted that the temperature up there is very low. Especially because the weater in Hawaii is hot and you need to face the near-freezing-point weather on the same day, make sure to prepare warm clothes yourself. The ski jackets and pants they lend you will not be enough.

ワイピオ渓谷はとても美しい場所！

Reviewed by: Lily

ワイピオ渓谷は、穏やかな気が流れる素晴らしい場所でした。
上から眺める展望台には車ですぐ行けますが、そこから渓谷に下る道路はレンタカーでは通行禁止ですし、無理に行こうとするのは止めた方が良いガタガタの急勾配の狭い道です。対向の車を避けるのも、あらかじめ避ける場所を把握していた方が良い、慣れた人が行く道です。
歩いて下る人もとても少ないです。下りてからも道しるべなどはないので、ぐるっと巡るとなると、馬ではなく歩くのだとしてもツアーで行った方が良いと思います。

はじめに、スタッフが渓谷の馬小屋まで車で連れて行ってくれます。乗馬ツアーには、8人が参加して2人のスタッフが付きました。
馬の乗り方は、カタコトの日本語混じりの簡単な説明だけでしたが、とにかく、お馬さんたちがみんな賢くて、連れて行ってくれます(笑)
日本にありがちな、手綱を誰かが引いて連れて行ってくれる訳ではなく、初めてだろうが1人１頭与えられ、いきなり乗せてもらえます。
とっても楽しいです！

予約前に検討した際、日本語のツアーだとまる1日だったので、午前中だけのこちらにしました。初体験だとかなり体力が必要ですので、半日で十分だと思います。

Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation

Awesome tour

Reviewed by: Jason

Our guide, Gordon, made sure the shuttle ride was comfortable and enjoyable. the stargazing and sunset views were amazing! It is well recommended to take this tour.

Lasagna was a bit salty for asian taste in my opinion. Browny, cookies and drinks were nice. Jumpers and gloves were provided but it was still cold, so it would be better if you brought more warm clothings.

One thing, i came on this tour with my wife (newly weds) but the seats were limited, so we had to sit separately :( it would be nice if there were seating plans or notice beforehand.

Nonetheless, i would take this tour again if I do ever come back to the big island!

I think this was venus.

Mauna Kea Summit Sunrise & Stargazing Tour

First time close to the doors to haven:)

Reviewed by: Darko

I recommend this Sunrise tours especially to people who never conquers mountain peak higher then 3000 m.
Of course, I recommend it to everyone else, but for those who are for the first time on a higher elevation this is simply the must.

The flow of emotions I felt when I reached the peak was so overwhelming that I couldn't stop the tears.
It's almost impossible to express the feeling of inner fulfillment when you stand on the top of a high mountain watching the sunrise!

The Veltra crew did outstanding planning by set of small stops so our body can adapt to over 4000 m attitude.
First we stopped at 2000 to adapt to coldness of night and change in altitude. (They distributed parkas to all of us at that time)
Then we stopped at around 3000 m for unforgettable stargazing experience.
I saw shapes of Milky way, before but this was on completely different level.
I think the altitude of 3000 m makes substantial difference. There you don't have any light pollution but also the air is already thin enough to give you unforgettable experience of pure connection with the universe.

Then finally, just when you think that it can not get better then this, on the brink of dawn, we reached the summit and saw and felt unforgettable sunrise that will, at least in my case, stay forever in my memories.

I would like to use this opportunity to thank Veltra team and especially to our guide Stefan for allowing me to experience this unforgettable sunrise.

Sincerely.

Aloha,

Thank you very much for joining our sunrise tour and giving us your review.
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the sunrise and stargazing.
Because we are a Japanese tour company, it was our challenge to combine customers who speak different language.
We are very careful about the altitude accommodation of our customers.
Sunrise from the summit and the sky filled with the stars at Mauna Kea is outstanding.
I will tell Stefan about your review and he would be happy.
Thank you for choosing our tour.
We're looking forward to seeing you on Big Island again!

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

初めての乗馬！ワイピオ最高！

Reviewed by: あけみ

初めての乗馬！しかも英語はまるっきりダメな私でしたが、充分楽しめました。
先ず初めに馬の操作を説明されます。勿論英語ですが、重要な所はカタコトの日本語で説明がありジェスチャーでだいたいは分かります。
直ぐに騎乗するとお利口さんな馬達が、水辺で休憩したり草を食べたりしながら進みます。
タロイモ、ノニやククイの木々など説明を受けながらワイピオのマイナスイオンをたっぷり味わいました！
展望台から見る景色も最高ですが、下から見るヒイラベの滝も雄大でした。

Mauna Kea Summit Sunrise & Stargazing Tour

Breathtaking Views! A Once in a Lifetime Experience!

Reviewed by: Nichole B

My friend and I went on the stargazing and sunrise tour to the Summit of Mauna Kea yesterday. Todd was our tour guide and extremely personable. He was also a wealth of knowledge on constellations, and local landscape. The stargazing was outstanding, we saw satellites, shooting stars, and a ton of constellations not visible usually at home. The summit was breathtaking, watching the sun come up we could see the whole island and Maui from up there. It was like being on top of the world. I definitely recommend it!

ワイピオ渓谷　乗馬ツアー　絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞ by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

乗馬場までの道のりも楽しめます。

Reviewed by: とみぃ

家族で参加しました。8才の息子含め、妻以外初めての乗馬で不安がありましたが、フレンドリーなガイドさんによる、シンプルな英語で楽しむことができました。また、ハワイ島に行った時には参加したいツアーです。タイトルのとおり、乗馬場までも車で急勾配の坂を行き、小川も渡ります。これも楽しめるので、一度で二度楽しめます。

ワイピオ渓谷　ワゴンツアー　小さなお子様から年配の方もゆったり楽しめる　＜午前・午後／英語ガイド／貸切あり＞

語学力が必要です

Reviewed by: こじろー

まずはピックアップ場所に
「ラストチャンスストア」の表記はありませんので、分岐後の坂を下り終えたところにあるストア（営業はしていない？）を目指して下さい

駐車場は道の反対側の道路沿いのスペースです

ガイドの説明はすべて地元の方の英語ですので
聞き取り能力がないと理解は難しいです
※自分が参加したときには一緒になった日本人グループに通訳の方がいたので助かりました

いつも展望台から見るだけでしたが、
ワイピオ渓谷に降りて見てみなきゃわからないということもありますので、同じような方は一度体験する事をお勧めします
