特別な体験でした!
ツアーというよりトリップの方が合ってそうです。
インナートリップなのかタイムトリップなのか、参加後のお土産が大きく、
いつまでも感動が続きます。
360度の夕焼けや星空は世界中探してもそれ程お目にかかれず、
ハレアカラは稀有な場所なのだと実感しました。
星空を見るだけではなく、GAZEできるのはプロがいて解説してくださるから。。
ツアーメンバーが感じた自由や親密さはYAMAPEEさんしか作りだせなかったでしょう。
あの個人客が帰ってしまったあとの’取り残され感’が良かったなあ。。。
珠玉のBGMにも泣かされましたし。。
色々仕掛けが散りばめられているツアーですが
参加された方の感動を取りたくないので、口チャックです。
良い事づくめでしたが、ひとつ後遺症が、、、。
街で♪真夏の果実♪がかかると、あの星空を思い出し、キュンキュンしてしまいます。泣
本当に感謝しています。
☆これから予約される方は早めのご予約をお勧めします。
☆オアフでつまらないお土産を買っちゃったので、自分へのお土産はクラロッジの
マーケットがおすすめです!

Krichelle took us out on the hike in Hana rainforest and it was amazing. She knew a lot about the farm and picked us a lot of fruit n avocados. The hike was amazing as I love running they the woods. She took us thru done private hike areas that you won't be able to go thru without a guide. Make sure to bring sunscreen n insect repellent!!
There were 4 falls that we visited n the swim in the falls were amazing. There was also one that we could jump into.
For those that are not as active, there are easier routes that krichelle instructed others to pass thru . All in all amazing experience and I would go it again,

We had a fun day, our guide Glori was great :) She shared Maui's history and culture with us. We got far more than we expected!! We even got to try some fruit on our hike, a passion fruit, a strawberry....she also showed us the "shy" plant that opens and closes. I learned how to correctly pronounce some words and gained and understanding of their meaning. Glori also suggested some other places to see while in Maui such as Lahaina :) We are so grateful! Snacks, water, and a sandwhich were provided. I highly recommend!

My husband and I were on our honeymoon and we had a great time doing the Road to Hana and helicopter tour combo! Although the helicopter tour was shorter than we expected about 30 minutes, we saw many beautiful views and waterfalls! Our pilot was great and informative! We landed at the Hana airport and took the road "leaving" Hana for our tour so we did things a little backwards. Our driver, I believe his name was Kelly or Kerry, was awesome! A Hawaiian native and had tons of knowledge of the area and was very pleasant, friendly, accommodating, and informative. The drive back was long, but with stops a long the way it made it go fast! We stopped at several places on the Road to Hana including waterfalls, volcanic beaches, and shoppes. We were very glad we did this tour and would highly recommend if you rather have someone else drive the Road to Hana (it is a very narrow and twisty road!) It was nice that both my husband and I could enjoy the views and not have to worry about concentrating on driving.

The drive was beautiful. Our driver was very knowledgable and made sure we were able to stop and take pics along the way. He took care of our every need. Lunch was amazing! Our flight back to the heliport was great. Unfortunately, it was a little cloudy and we didn't get to see as much as I would have liked. Also, our video only recorded 2 minutes of our flight. That was a bummer. I would definitely recommend this trip.

Did this on the first day so it wasn't hard to get up at 2am since we hadn't adjusted to the timezone yet. I was glad we packed jeans, jackets, gloves and hats; we were still a little cold up there. But the sunrise was definitely spectacular.
We stayed at the Hyatt and there was some confusion on where to be picked up. Don't ask Veltra; call Polynesian Adventure Tours listed on the voucher directly. Our driver was OK; he had some interesting tips, but at 2:30am, most of us were just sleeping. It also would have been nice to know about the large viewing area right of the observation shack since it was pitch black when we got there. I would have expected the driver to mention this or give tips on where to view the sunrise. The Coffee and Danish was just OK; the system of having driver fix your coffee and hot chocolate was slow. The big breakfast on the way down was tasty, but slow to be served.

昨年、ハワイ島のマウナケア山でサンセットとスターゲイジングを体験して、非常に気に入り、今年はマウイ島のハレアカラ山にチャレンジしました。標高でいえばマウナケアのほうがずっと高いので、大きな期待はしていなかったのですが、大満足でした。
ホテルでピックアップしてもらって、とりあえずラハイナの街を車中見学。カフルイのクリスピードーナツ(大阪にもあるけど)で違う方面からくる参加者を待ちながら、小休憩。メンバーがそろったかと思いきや、もう1箇所でピックアップがあるとのこと。その人とは待ち合わせがうまくいかずクラで落ち合いました。クラも自分たちで行こうと思っていたのですが、時間がなく断念したところだったので、ツアーで寄れてラッキーでした。
ハレアカラへの途中で雨が降ってきたのですが、上に行けば晴れているという言葉を信じ、一路頂上へ。(実際には所々で高さに慣らすために休憩を取っていますが、気分は一路)
頂上に着いた時には、サンセットにはまだ時間が少しありましたが、ガイドさんの説明を聞きながらスタンバイ。徐々にオレンジ色が強くなり、ついに太陽が雲に隠れてしまいました。マウナケアでは、ハレアカラのほうに日が沈んだので、マウイ島の山に沈むのを想像していたのですが、これはこれで荘厳な趣があってまた格別でした。
食事の後は、星空観測。星の名前や、星座の名前を教えてもらいながら、3台の天体望遠鏡で、土星をはじめいろいろな星を観測、人工衛星も流れ星も観測できました。サンセットの時には雲海のようにあった雲も取れ、街の明かりも見えてきましたが、星空が見えなくなるような強い光ではないので、肉眼でも十分楽しめました。
サンセットは、マウナケアもハレアカラも甲乙つけがたいけど、星空については、ハレアカラのほうがダントツにいいです。見た場所がよかったからか、他のグループはいなかったし、車のヘッドライトに邪魔されることもなく、思う存分天プラを楽しめました。次にマウイ島へ行った時にもぜひ参加したいと思っています。

朝6時半のピックアップはちょっと眠たかったけど、船に乗ったら目が覚めました。
昨年ハワイ島(キャプテンクック)でシュノーケリングをしたときには、水もあまりきれいでなく魚ももう一つだったので、今年もあまり期待をしていなかったのですが、モロキニ島は、結構水もきれいで魚もたくさんいました。パイプウニヤカワハギ系の魚、チョウチョウウオも数種類いて、まあ、満足。
1時間ほどして、次のウミガメポイントへ。水はあまりきれいでなかったので、ウミガメが見れるかどうか心配だったのですが、ほぼ一番乗りで海に入ったのが幸いで、すぐに1頭に遭遇しました。まだ、あまり人がいなかったので、ゆったり泳いでいる姿を堪能できました。ここでも1時間近く泳いでいましたが、モロキニに比べ魚も少なく、やっぱり目当てはウミガメ。そろそろ終わりかという時に、少し離れたところにカメがいるとガイドの人が教えてくれたので、全速力でそちらに向かい2頭目を見ることができました。
自分ではポイントなどわからないし、ツアーに参加してよかったと思った瞬間でした。帰りの船中では、クルーが撮ったビデオを見ながらビールやカクテルを飲んでゆったりできました。

I would give this 4 1/2 stars! My husband and I ended up getting a private tour because no one else signed up! Our guide was great (didn't give name)-he constantly was bringing things back up to the surface to show us and was very knowledgable about anything we asked about. I had a very personal and special experience with a female turtle while snorkeling and we saw some while kayaking, but I thought we would see more at the turtle cleaning station. Would recommend this to anyone with experience. The total time was good but we wish it could have been a little longer-our guide didn't want us to be on choppy waters. Our tour was around 3 hrs. They provide you with snacks and water. Our guide was snapping pictures for us and will e-mail them to us for free! Can't wait to see them! Mahalo to our guide and this company!!
Tip: After you are done, ask your guide about the Jaws Food Truck-delicious fish tacos and burritos with snacks and smoothies!

The food was delicious! The crew served fresh baked cinnamon rolls and fruit for breakfast, a huge lunch, and an ice cream sundae for dessert, as well as unlimited beverages. The trip out and back from the crater was so much fun! The snorkeling was top notch! After snorkeling at the crater, we also snorkeled at Turtle Town where we saw beautiful sea turtles in their natural environment. There is nothing more amazing! I would highly recommend this trip and we cannot wait to sail with this crew again. Thank you for the amazing memories!

3000メートルに登って行きますので、まずはクリスピーで一休みをしています。実はこれは高山病予防も兼ねています。空腹で行くのとでは体の調子が違って来るのです。
あと女性のお客様も多いのでおトイレ休憩は充分な回数を行く様にしています。クラロッジは1000メートルの目安です。マウナケアーは登るのに片道休憩を含めて3時間以上を費やしますが、こちらは雪がめったに降らないので、約一時間半で登れるのも魅力です。またハレアカラの夕日と星空を見に来てくださいね!
