This was the best tour I’ve been on both because of the scenery but also our tour guide Sean.
First, Sean was on time, ready to go with a smile and super friendly, kind and informative. He pointed out spots of interest throughout the drive to Mauna Kea and answered our questions.
Spending some time at the visitor center and seeing the silver plant was great. No one on our trip was sick and Sean reminded us to let him know if we were feeling ok and advised us he had oxygen on board, just in case.
The Mauna Kea summit was awe inspiring- so beautiful and amazing to be at 12000 feet over the clouds. Seeing the observatories on top of the mountain was other worldly, hard to believe where we were.
We had sandwiches and hot cocoa and Sean’s colleague Hiro gave us a wonderful astronomy lesson and we were able to see Saturn and the moon through the telescope they brought.
The whole trip was top notch and we would highly recommend it!
