Truly a wonderful day on the Road to Hana, thanks to the Shaka Guide App! The app had almost a full 12 hr itinerary set out for my partner and I. We enjoyed every minute of it! There is no way we would have seen all that we did without using the Maui self guided tour by Shaka Guide. Thank you again for a great experience!

Our family of 4 had an amazing time watching the sunset and stargazing with Yoshi! It’s a very special experience that we all enjoyed and won’t soon forget. Yoshi did a great job of making sure everyone was comfortable and adapting to the high altitudes well. He showed us many stars and constellations and provided a lot of details about the island and vegetation. We would definitely recommend this tour!

6月にハレアカラのサンセット&星空ツアーに参加しました。メディアでの解説を拝見していた山ぴーさんのガイドで終始楽しませていただきました。
ハレアカラ山の雲海、サンセット、そして星空は今までに見た事のない美しさでした。
また、勧めていただいて途中で買ったローカルフードも美味しくて、旅行中にまた買いに行ってしまったほどでした。
マウイ島にいらっしゃる方は、参加されるのぜひおすすめしたいです。

星空観測は解説も含めてよかったのですが、山頂がいっぱいで引き返して、観測地点に向かいました。前回は山頂に上がれたので、今回も期待していました。途中休憩が結構あったので、タイトルにハレアカラ山頂と記載するのなら、確実に上がれるよう余裕を持ったスケジュールをお願いします。

Yoshi is an excellent, enthusiastic guide who takes great pictures! He provided a lot of neat information about Maui and Haleakala along with extensive knowledge about the stars. You are picked up from fairly accessible locations, and I'm glad to pay for someone experienced in driving the roads, which can get narrow and quite close to cliff edges. Three stops along the way before the peak to get accustomed to the gradual climb in altitude. The actual crater couldn't be seen due to clouds, but Haleakala was still quite beautiful to see. I chose the sunset tour because I didn't want to get up that early for sunrise, and I'm glad I did! I was well rested and the sunset was beautiful. Yoshi provided comfortable camp chairs, warm coats, gloves, and hot tea as we waited for the sunset. You need to bring your own dinner, so don't forget to pack it! It was great, super peaceful, quiet, and comfy! Once night fell, Yoshi brought out some high-tech telescopes and pointed out constellations. I got to see Mars! It was a very clear night and amazing to see all the stars filling the sky. Informative and quite the experience. Afterwards, he drove us back. I really enjoyed this tour and highly recommend!

妻と娘2人(6, 12歳)とで参加してきました。
絶景サンセットとともに星もたくさん見られて全員大満足でした。
望遠鏡、双眼鏡もご用意していただき、じっくりと観察もできましたし、ヤマピーさんのガイドに関しては豊かな知識と話術でとても楽しく過ごすことができました。
防寒具は貸してくれますが、とはいえやはり寒いので下に着込めるものは持っていかれることをお勧めします。
特に子どもは寒さがこたえていたようです。

We absolutely loved our stargazing adventure with Yoshi! He thought of everything, including taking us to a private spot, blankets, hot beverages, chairs, as well as a wealth of knowledge and some incredible telescopes and binoculars. We were fortunate enough to have a tour with just the four of us on the day of our trip and we enjoyed every minute of it. Not only was Yoshi, friendly, courteous and knowledgeable but he also drove incredibly safely and stopped plenty of times for bathrooms and was just an all-around pleasure. We would certainly recommend Yoshi to anyone looking to have an excellent stargazing experience on Maui.

We cannot speak glowingly enough about the stargazing tour experience with Yoshi. He was such a knowledgeable and considerate guide. He had everything we could possibly need to be comfortable on top of the mountain, and it is so much more enjoyable making that trip as a passenger than as a driver. We cannot recommend the experience enough!

He taught us a lot about the stars, NASA and the culture of the Island while showing us amazing landscapes and taking incredible pictures of us. He provided blankets and hot tea/coffee to stay warm.

Yoshi was the most gracious, considerate and knowledgeable guide. He gave our family a lasting memory. With the little kind touches of treats and hot drinks and warm blankets, he made a magnificent experience even more enjoyable.
Haleakala is breathtaking! His knowledge of Astronomy and his desire to make our experience unforgettable from beginning to end was the highlight of our visit to Hawaii.
The quiet view of the most memorable sunset we have ever seen and the majestic night sky to wrap up the evening will be treasured forever.
His kind, gentle spirit and true love of Haleakala was more than a tour, it was an experience we shared with him.

My girlfriend and I got to enjoy a private tour by Yoshi up Haleakalā, and I’ve rarely encountered a tour guide with such love for his profession and adopted home. Unfortunately it was very cloudy so we couldn’t see the stars, but Yoshi took us to a great pizza place and we chatted for several hours and learned so much about Japan and Maui. We will be back next time we’re in Maui and we will make sure it’s during the summer months for better weather conditions. I would strongly recommend taking a tour with him (and when given the option go for ice cream), as he will work so hard to ensure you have the greatest time.
Also don’t be too worried about it being cold, it was around 45F when we were there, and at least for me I was fine in a t-shirt.

家族3人で参加しました。クリスマスイブでの参加になり山頂はとても混雑してサンセットは頂上で見れなかったのですが、それでも慌てずにベストポジションに連れて行ってくれました。星空観測は混雑していない場所で行ってくれて、人生最高の星空を見せてもらいました。言葉では言い表せないくらい感動しました。ツアーの山ちゃんに大感謝です。ありがとうございました!
因みに、はじめはレンタカーで自分たちで行こうと思っていたのですが、ツアーに参加して大正解でした。暗い中慣れない山道は危なかったですし、ゆっくり山頂まで行ってくれたお陰で高山病等の心配もありませんでした。防寒も配慮してくれて、星空を観られるようでしたら、このツアーはめちゃくちゃお勧めです。

スーパーに立ち寄り、夕食を買う時も細かくアドバイス、アテンドしてくださいました。

初めていったマウイで何か貴重な体験を、と思い申し込みました。
ホテル送迎で、片道2時間のドライブも山ピーさんの楽しいトークで楽しく過ごせました。途中おいしいローカルフードも買えて、山頂での夕食を堪能しました。
山頂では壮大なクレーター、360度の眺望、雲海に沈む夕日が幻想的で、日頃の些細な悩みなど吹っ飛ぶ経験が出来ました。落日後の星空がまた最高で、天の川その他もろもろの星たちを静かに眺めることができ、遠い子供のころ観た記憶も蘇る貴重な体験でした。山ピーさんが、GPS天体望遠鏡で次々と有名な恒星群や惑星を見せてくれたことにも感謝です。
とにかく必見のツアーであることは間違いないです。

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!
