Saddle Road
Next, you’ll travel across Saddle Road between Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa, two of the tallest and most massive volcanoes on Earth. Your National Park Service trained guide will discuss the volcanology, geology, and history of these monstrous wonders, as well as providing in-depth narration on the various lava flows and flora and fauna that you’ll be passing by. Lastly, your guide will take you to one of our preferred locations on Mauna Kea for nighttime stargazing.

Mauna Kea
You’ll observe deep sky and planetary objects through a large aperture Dobsonian telescope under one of the darkest and most pristine skies on planet Earth! Our Dobsonian telescopes are a true purist’s experience to view the night sky. Their fast focal ratio enables you to see sprawling wide field views of objects that simply aren’t possible with the types of telescopes used by other tours. Depending on what is visible in the current sky and weather permitting, you’ll observe galaxies, nebula, star clusters, planets, double star systems, the moon, and much more; all the highlights and showpiece objects like you’ve never seen before! Afterwards, warm up with Kona coffee and hot chocolate before returning to your resort. Warm jackets provided. This tour does not visit Maunakea’s summit out of deference to Native Hawaiian concerns.

Седл-роуд
Далее вы будете путешествовать по Седл-роуд между Мауна-Кеа и Мауна-Лоа, двумя самыми высокими и массивными вулканами на Земле. Ваш гид, обученный Службой национальных парков, обсудит вулканологию, геологию и историю этих чудовищных чудес, а также подробно расскажет о различных потоках лавы, флоре и фауне, мимо которых вы будете проезжать. Наконец, ваш гид отвезет вас в одно из наших любимых мест на Мауна-Кеа для ночного наблюдения за звездами.

Мауна-Кеа
Вы будете наблюдать за глубоким небом и планетарными объектами через телескоп Добсона с большой апертурой под одним из самых темных и чистых небес на планете Земля! Наши добсоновские телескопы — это настоящий пуристский опыт наблюдения за ночным небом. Их быстрое фокусное расстояние позволяет вам видеть обширные виды объектов, которые просто невозможны с типами телескопов, используемых в других турах. В зависимости от того, что видно на текущем небе и позволяет погода, вы будете наблюдать галактики, туманности, звездные скопления, планеты, двойные звездные системы, Луну и многое другое; все основные моменты и экспонаты, которых вы никогда раньше не видели! После этого согрейтесь кофе Kona и горячим шоколадом, прежде чем вернуться на курорт. Предоставляются теплые куртки. Этот тур не посещает вершину Маунакеа из уважения к интересам коренных жителей Гавайев.

Our guide was knowledgeable. We were under impression we'd be going to the observatory ABOVE the clouds which we DID have. The food was OK at best, facility was dirty & no bathroom service. We observed stars from a military base parking area where active combat firing drills occurring. Not something I liked hearing

The amount of stars in the sky was truly amazing. It had to be thousands. Marcus was very knowledgeable and informative. The only downside was how cold it was. Even with the jackets in the hoods the wind made it extremely cold.

Saw so many amazing stars and galaxies, we also got to witness Saturn in such clarity, it was amazing to see it in real life. It almost looked as good as the google image search. Got to drink hot coco under the amazing stary night. The tour guide was amazing and so knowledgeable.
