I was able to experience the great outdoors on horseback. It was an environment that cannot be enjoyed in Japan. The horses were calm and safe. However, one downside was that the instructions were only in English, so I couldn't understand most of the explanations, which was a bit disappointing.
大自然を馬にのって感じることができました。
日本では味わえない環境でした。
馬もおとなしくて安全でした。
ただ、一つ、英語のみの案内なので、説明はほとんど分からなかったのがさみしかったです。

We spent the morning ATV riding. The guide was informative and made sure we had time on the trail to ask questions at our designated stops. What beautiful views and what a beautiful property. Certainly well taken care of and great example of sustainablility and steward of the land.

Due to the decrease in Japanese tourists during the COVID-19 pandemic, there were only two of us Japanese among about 20 people on the same tour (most were from the mainland United States). The guide was Japanese, but the explanations during the transfer were in English. However, they provided us with individual guidance in Japanese, so we were able to enjoy the experience without any issues. When watching the sunset from Mauna Kea, it was colder than I had imagined. They do lend out down jackets, but depending on the season, I recommend dressing warmly in advance.
The stargazing was amazing. As soon as we got off the van, I was moved by the breathtaking starry sky that I had never seen before. We were able to see Saturn through a telescope, and there were opportunities for photography as well. I'm really glad I participated. If you want to see the stars beautifully, I recommend checking the lunar phase before joining.
コロナ禍で日本人観光客が減少した為、同じツアーの役20人中日本人は私たち2人でした(他はアメリカ本土の方が多かったです)。ガイドの方は日本人ですが、移動中の説明は英語でした。私たちには個別に日本語でガイドしてくださったので、何も問題なく過ごすことが出来ました。マウナケア山からサンセットを見る際は、想像以上に寒かったです。ダウンを貸して頂けますが、時期によっては事前に厚着していく事をおすすめします。
そして、星空観測は最高でした。バンを降りた途端に今まで見たこと無い満点の星空に感動しました。望遠鏡では土星も見せていただき、写真撮影もありで、本当に参加して良かったです。星を綺麗に見たい場合は月齢を確認しての参加をお勧めします。

The weather was bad (it was very windy), so we couldn't experience takeoff and landing, but we were able to pilot the aircraft in stable areas, which was very good. I think it's best to book for takeoff and landing when the weather is nice. The pilots respond kindly in English, so if you can speak even a little English, you can experience it with peace of mind. From booking to Q&A, we were assisted by Japanese staff, which was reassuring. Thank you for accommodating us as a couple for two consecutive days.
天候が悪く(風が強かった為)、離陸着陸は体験出来ませんでしたが、安定したエリアでは旋回など操縦させて頂き、とても良かったです。離着陸をどうして体験したい方は天候の良い時期を見て予約が良いと思います。パイロットも優しい英語で受け答えして頂けるので、英語が少しでも話せたら、安心して体験出来ます。予約から質疑応答は日本人の方々に対応頂けるので、安心です。2日連続夫婦揃って対応いただきありがとうございました。

The guide was very friendly, kind and helpful. The horses were really smart and well trained. It was the first time for us to do horse riding, but nothing was difficult and had a really good time spending time enjoying the beautiful beach while riding the cute horses. We enjoyed this activity the most between all the things we did during our vacation in Hawaii.
The transportation to this place was a bit poor. We took Uber to this place and tried to schedule an Uber/Lyft for going back before hand but it was unavailable around this spot. On the way back, there was no Uber/ Lyft available so we had to use taxi which cost us triple. I would recommend renting a car to get to this place or set up a taxi pick up in advance so you wouldn’t have to worry.
The activity itself was really good and it was worth paying all the cost getting here and going back as well.
We would definitely want to go back next time we visit Oahu again!

For our once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, my husband and I discussed wanting to have a memorable experience, so we decided to book this activity (*^^*).
The view of Hawaii and Oahu from the Cessna was breathtaking ( ・ ・̥ )♡ It was different from seeing the scenery from an airplane; we could truly feel the essence of Hawaii's sky while enjoying the stunning views, which was wonderful (*^^*). I believe this Cessna experience allows you to fully appreciate the beauty of the ocean and nature from a wide perspective (*^^*). The vividly blue sea, so clear that you could see the bottom, was like a painting, and we enjoyed the view of Diamond Head from above. I felt we had a truly wonderful experience, feeling the grandeur of Oahu's nature (*^^*).
Such an experience is rare, and to ensure I could reminisce about it after returning home, I entrusted the piloting to my husband and took photos and videos from the back seat. My husband, while piloting, was also able to enjoy the scenery and seemed very happy with the experience (*^^*). The piloting was reassuring as a strong, reliable instructor was beside him giving guidance (*^^*).
Additionally, the kind and friendly father of the couple who run this company picked us up from the hotel. During the ride, he shared many points about piloting the Cessna and stories about Hawaii, which made us very happy ^ ^. After the Cessna experience, we were treated to celebratory champagne, sweets, and other drinks on the lounge sofa, providing us with a truly luxurious time ( ・ ・̥ )♡. Thank you for taking so many photos of us as a couple (*^^*).
When we come back to Hawaii next time, I definitely want to show this stunning view to our children, so we will be repeating this experience (*^^*)♡ Thank you so much.
一生に一度のハネムーンという機会に、思い出に残る体験をしたいねと夫と相談し、今回こちらのアクティビティを予約させていただきました(*^^*)
セスナから一望できたHawaii、オアフ島は絶景でした( ・ ・̥ )♡飛行機から景色を見るのとまた違って、Hawaiiの空を生味に感じながら絶景を眺められるので、とても良かったです(*^^*)海や自然の美しさを広い目線で堪能出来るのは、このセスナの体験かなと思えます(*^^*)
絵に描いたような鮮やかな青い海は底も透けて見えるほど綺麗で、ダイヤモンドヘッドも上空からの景色を楽しませていただきました。オアフ島の雄大な自然を感じられて、本当に素敵な体験が出来たなと思います(*^^*)
こんな経験なかなか出来ないし、帰国後もこの体験を思い返せるようにと、セスナ操縦を夫に任せた私は後部座席からずっと写真や動画を撮ってました。笑
操縦した夫も、操縦しながら景色も堪能出来てて、良い経験が出来たと嬉しそうでした(*^^*)
操縦は、頼もしいたくましいお兄さんが横で付いてレクチャーしてくださるので安心できます(*^^*)
また、ホテルまでピックアップしてくださった、こちらの会社(?)を運営されてるご夫婦のお父さんもとてもお優しい気さくな方で、ホテル送迎の道中もセスナの操縦ポイントやHawaiiのお話を沢山してくださり嬉しかったです^ ^
セスナ体験後は、ラウンジのソファでお祝いのシャンパンやスイーツ、他ドリンクをご提供下さり、至れり尽くせりの時間を経験させていただけて最高でした( ・ ・̥ )♡
夫婦での写真も沢山撮ってくださりありがとうございました(*^^*)
次にHawaiiに来る時にも、ぜひ子供たちにもこの絶景を見させてあげたいなと思うので、リピートさせていただきます(*^^*)♡本当にありがとうございました。

It was a fantastic tour! From the ease of meeting the guide at a local pick up point, the his knowledge of the islands, the geography, and of course the telescopes and sky, to the use of parkas, pants and gloves... it was a wonderful experience! We went on an almost full moon night so only the brightest of stars were visible, but we were still able to see Saturn and Jupiter through their telescopes. Dress warm... and have a great time!

The skydiving experience itself was amazing. The instructor was kind and explained everything in Japanese, which made it very enjoyable. I was able to see a rainbow from above, and I had a lot of fun posing in the air.
However, there was one issue: I forgot to capture video footage while in the air. I really wanted to have that as a memory from my honeymoon, so it was quite disappointing.
There was another tour participant with the same name as mine, so it seems I was mistaken for that person. They had videos and photos, but I had neither.
I thought it was just bad luck, but I noticed in reviews that others also experienced camera-related issues, suggesting that this company has not addressed similar mistakes in the past. The contract I signed at the reception also noted that I had opted for video, so I believe it was a preventable error.
The instructor did apologize properly and mentioned that I could jump again the next day (it wasn't possible on the same day because the shop closed). I had other plans the following day, so I ultimately didn't jump again. The instructor was very nice, though.
スカイダイビング自体は最高でした。インストラクターさんは優しいし、日本語で説明してくれたりでとても楽しかったです。
上空から虹も見る事ができたし、空飛んでいる間色んなポーズをしてとても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ただ1点だけ、上空での動画の撮り忘れがありました。新婚旅行の記念に残したかったのでとても残念でした。
私と同じ名前のツアー参加者がいたので、間違えられていた様です。その人の動画と写真はあったのですが、私の分は動画も写真もありませんでした。
運が悪かっただけかと思ったのですが、口コミに私以外の方もカメラ関係のトラブルがあったことが記載されていたので、この会社は以前から同様のミスがあっても対策されていない様です。
受付で記載した契約書にもビデオをオプションで選択したことを追記していただいていたので、防げるミスだったかと思います。
インストラクターさんからはきちんと謝罪もありましたし、翌日なら再度飛べること(当日中はお店が閉店するから無理でした。翌日は他の予定があったので結局再度飛ぶことはしませんでした。)、市内まで車で送ろうか、と提案もしてくださりました。インストラクターさんはとても良い方だったと思います。

We really enjoyed the trail ride. The staff was friendly and the group was small. The scenery was the best part. I will admit I thought we would be riding in the sand and the water but that was not the case. Most of the ride was on a trail behind the actual beach but you still got a great view of the beach. This is a basic and slow ride and the horses basically walk themselves. It was expensive but the memories are worth ii.

The ladies who worked there were nice and friendly. The horses seemed well cared for. It was a nice ride but we would have preferred a little faster. It was Super slow. And they made us wear a helmet which we thought was not necessary, especially with how slow we went. Also it would have looked better in the pictures without the helmet. So overall, for the price, we really would have liked these things mentioned. A little disappointed unfortunately. But it was nice and peaceful.

I chose this excursion to surprise my Husband on out Honeymoon and we had the best time. Yoshi was kind, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. I was even able to tell him that this was a surprise for my husband and he had no idea what we were doing and Yoshi helped me keep that secret till we were at the top of the summit. Yoshi picked us up at the Lahaina Mall and made many fun stops on our way to the top of Haleakala. First was Krispy Creme where he picked us up donuts, next we stopped at Foodland so we could all get some food for sunset and the final stop was Kula Lodge located on the volcano. We then reached the summit to watch the sunset. Yoshi was so kind and took many pictures of my Husband and I. He had blankets, coats, and gloves for us as it is quite chilly at the top. We were then able to sit in his warm van and enjoy the food we had bought at Foodland and Yoshi offered us coffee that he brought. Then the fun part started, Yoshi has very high quality telescopes. We went when there was a full moon and we were able to see the moon in very high detail as well as Saturn and Jupiter and few constellations. We will definitely be coming back when we visit Maui again and we cant wait!!

Have done this tour 5 years ago with a different vendor. Was much better with other tour group but did not recall who it was when I booked this trip. Things I did not like about this tour:
1. Was not notified I could have been picked up in Kona. So we drove over an hour when we did not have to. Another couple drove all the way to the visitor center for the same reason 2. Dinner was marginal at best. 3. Star viewing from the visitor center parking lot?? Are you kidding me? Why? Light pollution, less clear skies..what a joke. I lay that blame on the tour guide, Maka. 4. Guide is not passionate about astronomy but he can be a good guide at times. Sadly, as the night wore on so did his personality. 5. Gloves were only proffered when a man complained. Hand them out with the coats.
Bottom line: do the tour but with a different group.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience renting SUP from us at Kayak Kaua'i. Many way to paddle falls and SUP is a bit more work but fun enough. Our boards are looking a little shabby and we will soon be replacing them with new and fleeter SUP's.
Until our wake cross....stay active and searching for water falls.
