Went on the afternoon trip with my best friend, we went as a birthday outing for him. The trip was SPECTACULAR, the cliffs and the water were gorgeous, we saw a a whale, the captain regaled us with facts of the coastline, and saw one of the sea caves. It was a little rough and we did not go in but it was still just as amazing all the same. We did not do any snorkeling (as it would be a little late in the day to do so) but we were permitted to jump out of the boat to swim around. It was fun, had a nice little meal. I will definitely go with this tour again if given the chance. A+.

Thanks Joe!!!
Joe very friendly and informative as he took us all around the island to many of the landmark spots. Joe shared stories of growing up on the island throughout many of the areas. Joe took care of us by making several stops for personal needs and to visit highlighted areas. Aloha and Mahalo !!!

You should definitely do this tour. This is the best stargazing tour! I was trying to book the other tours but because of our location it would of required us to drive across the island to meet up and then gather with others to ride together to stargaze. It was like a 7 or 8 hour tour. I chose this tour because we could pick a time slot and just meet and stargaze and the tour was only 2 hours AND with a photo. On our way it was pouring rain. We thought the tour would be canceled. But James sent us a new location. There was no rain and perfect place to be in awe of all of the stars we would be able to see. His knowledge of astronomy and his professional photography made the experience more memorable. I didn't think that much of the photo we would receive. But after getting the photo was was in awe!! We was not only able to learn so much about astronomy, but we was able to have the best souvenir of our experience!

Our tour guide was very accomodating and had lots of helpful hints.
Have breakfast before starting, because the Diamond Head hike isn't a leisurely stroll in the park... you're going uphill a long way and it'll make you sweat!
Bringing a flashlight would be a good idea, because the majority of the hike is on an unpaved and and sometimes uneven path. Which can be a problem for a pre-dawn hike.
We didn't exactly get to see the sun rise per se. We arrived at the top in plenty of time, there were some clouds on the horizon.
Go inside the bunker, all the way to the back, to access the spiral interior staircase to complete the pathway loop. Seems like a lot of people aren't aware that they need to go into the bunker to do that.
I'd recommend having at least $30 per person in cold hard cash on hand, to pay for lunch etc.
If you don't wear sneakers, you could have a little trouble walking over seaside areas with sharp lava rock...

朝3時に起きて、午前5時スタートの10kmウォークを終えホテルに着いたのが8時前で、かなり脱水してました。筋肉痛予防にシャワーで下半身を冷やした後、食事を摂らずに水分だけ補給し、8時半に予約したタクシーに乗ってPacific Skydiving Centerまで移動(136ドル+チップ15%)。到着は9時20分で、混まなかったら40分くらいなようです。Uberなら80ドル代のクルマもあったみたいですが、ホノルルマラソンで混んでいて予約が取れないと困るので帰りもタクシーにしました。この判断が後々ああなるとは・・・!
受付は10時、スカイダイビングは11時なので、ゆとりがありましたね。10kmウォークでの脱水症状のためか腹が空いておらず、持参した食べ物や、受付で販売していたカップ麺などは食べずにフライトを待ちました。この判断もまた、後の結果に関わったと思います。
現地では、私は英語下手でしたが、一緒に飛ぶガイドさんや別のカメラマンの方とは、カタことの英語で何とかクリア。キチンと撮影もしてくれました。
さて、本題の空中での体調ですが、1分間のフリーフォールは口を全開にしたため呼吸しにくいものの、なんとかクリア!その後パラシュートを開いた時は、ホッと安心したのですが、この後地獄となりました。下降する際、左右に旋回するのですが、慣れない私にはきりもみ状態で落ちていくような感覚で、直ぐに目が回ってしまいました。更に左・右旋回が急激に何回も繰り返されたため、ターンが切り替わるたびにかかる衝撃で胃袋が口から出そうになり、空中で吐き気を催しました。ここで吐いたら背中にピッタリついているガイドさんや、上空にいる他のお客さんに逆シャワーを浴びせかねませんので、死ぬ気で我慢しました。この事に集中したためか、ついに力尽き、パラシュートの後半からは、だらんと吊るされたワラ人形状態でした!無事に着陸しましたが、腰が抜けてカメラマンに寄りかかったくらいです。その後事務所のトイレで2回戻しましたが、何も食べていなかったのでほとんど出ませんでした。食べていたらと思うとゾッとしますが、食べていたら体調が良くなって、こんな状態にならなかったのかもしれません。
タクシーの運転手さんとは行く道すがら、帰りはUberにするから要らないよと話してました。すると運転者さんが130ドルのチップなしでどうだ?と交渉してきたので、ちょっと高いけどまぁいいか!と握手して交渉成立しておいたため、運転者さんは現地飛行場に残っていました。なので私が元気に飛び立ち、そしてヘロヘロになって着陸し、2回トイレに駆け込む姿をしっかりとウォッチしててくれました。
そのため、帰りには出発を少し遅らせ私をベンチに寝かせてくれたり、アレ用の紙袋を飛行場から持ってきてくれたり、走行では急発進や急ブレーキなどGのかからない運転をしてくれたりと、ホスピタリティ溢れるドライビングでホテルまで送ってくれました。降車の時も優しく声をかけてくれて、違う意味で感動した私は交渉ではゼロだったはずのチップを渡し、握手して別れました。
このように、スカイダイビングは疲れていたり、脱水症状があったり、食事をきちんと摂っていなかったり、睡眠不足だったりせずに、万全な体調で挑まれた方が宜しいかと思います。ちなみに私以外のダイビングされた方は、皆さん喜んでいらっしゃいましたよ!
それから、思い起こせば私は、ジェットコースターなどの絶叫系や、コーヒーカップなどの遠心力系、総じてGがかかる系のアトラクションが苦手でした。
今回のスカイダイビングで、まさかあんなにパラシュートでグルグル目がまわるとは思ってませんでしたので、G系が苦手な方は厳しいのかもしれません。
私今回の体験、総じて貴重な体験となりましたので大満足です。ただし、次回チャレンジするかは・・・、体と相談しながら考えたいと思います。

Wow! This tour was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Our tour guide, Bryce, was one of the most knowledgeable persons I have ever met. He knew so much of the history and culture of Hawaii and told us so many in depth stories with a lot of detail. He also has extensive knowledge in almost every topic known to man and can easily talk about any topic for hours—literally! This tour was super long but so worth it. Bryce kept us entertained the whole time while driving from place to place. The volcano was spectacular to see in both the day and the night! In the day, you get to enjoy the vastness of the volcano and see all the steam vents. In the night—wow nothing will ever beat that experience—the most stars you will ever see in the night sky and the lava flow was unreal! So unbelievably cool. This really was the best tour we have ever been on—amazing sights, fun times, and extremely informative! Highly recommend!
Aloha Erika and Nate,
Thanks for your review, we're so glad you enjoyed it! Bryce is a wealth of information for sure, and we're lucky to have him as a guide. You're timing was great for the eruption, we're so glad you were able to see it live! We hope your time on the island was amazing!

All the stops we made at the volcano's park were totally worth it but my favorite spot in this tour was the Akaka Falls, what a gorgeous place!!!

My husband and I took the North Shore Tour hoping to get a bit of everything - activities, beach, relaxation and fun. We got what we wanted and more. We had Cousin G who made everyone feel comfortable and entertained, and made the tour engaging and funny.
The tour had a good balance of free/activity time and many choices to choose from. We did the waterfall and kayaking option and was one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii.
We also got the chance to sight see the east and north side of Oahu and had many stops for photos and breaks.
We felt like we got our moneys worth from this trip and got to see and do a lot on the island in just a 8am - 5pm timeframe.

ハネムーンで初ハワイの初セスナ。
操縦体験もしてみたかったですが、ひとまずじっくり空からの景色を楽しんで写真も取りたかったので遊覧にしました。
英語もそこまで得意でないのでまず予約が日本人で安心し、送迎の方も日本人で一安心、搭乗前のレクチャーも日本人の方でした。
パイロットの方はハワイの方でしたが遊覧中しゃべることもそんなにないので問題なかったです。
セスナに乗り込んでから滑走路での待機がかなり長かったです。このへんはタイミングによりそう。
いざ飛び立ってからの景色は素晴らしいものでした!最初の方に見えてくるダイヤモンドヘッドはやはり感動でした!
たまに揺れたりしますが酔ったりはしなかったです。
オアフ島を右半分一周してあっという間に終わり。
終わってからのアフタヌーンティー的なやつが結構嬉しかったです。
とてもホスピタリティあふれるショップさんでした!
またハワイでセスナ乗りたいときはお世話になるつもりです。

死ぬまでにやりたい10の事。のリストに入ってる!
ハレアカラの星空を観たい。コロナ禍で3年振りのハワイ。そして初めてのマウイ島。真っ先に星空ツアーを申し込んだ。当日ホテル3:30にピックアップ。2名の若い日本人カップルと私たちシニア女性2人組。ガイドの山Pさんが喋る喋る!私もつられて喋る(笑笑)クリスピークリームでドーナツを買い。フードランドでポケを買い。いざハレアカラへ!ビジターセンターでトイレ休憩。高地に身体を慣らしながら頂上へ。頂上に着いた途端猛吹雪。
『大丈夫ですよ!第五ポイントまで確保してありますから必ずお見せします』自信満々の山Pさん。
1m先も見えない吹雪の中下山開始。3055mから真っ暗(真っ白?)な山道を我が庭のように走り出す。なんと‼︎!第二ポイントで雲と同じ高さからのサンセットが見える‼︎感動。そしてまた雨が降り出し、移動開始。もしかしたら山Pさんは雲を見ながら移動してたのかな?第三ポイントで素早くイスや望遠鏡やもろもろ用意して、、、、、
『いいって言うまで絶対空見ないでくださいよ』
なんて言われて、ドキドキ期待が高まる!防寒着を貸してもらい万全の体制でいざ‼︎
うわー!泣ける!吹雪だったのに!豪雨だったのに!今も強風で飛ばされそうだけど!
ぐるり360度満点の星空です。ベテランガイドの成せる技ですね!本当に参加して良かったです。何度行ってもきっと感動するでしょう。必ずまたあの星空を観に戻ると思います!山Pさんに漬け物のお土産を届けにもう一度ハレアカラへ!

なんといってもスケールの大きな風景を見ながら、たっぷり2時間乗馬できました。馬もよく調教されていて、ほぼ何もしなくても動いてくれます。その分、乗馬を楽しむというよりも、馬に乗って景色を眺めるという感じ。ガイド説明は英語なので、よくわかりませんでしたが、映画の風景がよみがえり「おー!」と思わず声が出てしまいます。乗馬だけのコースだったので、送迎時間の間に買物、食事もできてゆったりできてよかったです。土産物もワイキキよりも安くて面白いものがあって、こりゃまたよかったです。ハワイ州観光局でクアロア牧場の紹介に出演していたBrianさんともお話しできて、さらによかったです。

Hello J.L,
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you had a had a good time with John. The weather in December is really like our rainy season so it has been very cloudy recently in the early mornings.
