Kauai Hiking Tour with Private Waterfall Swim & Jungle Adventure

Hike to private waterfall

Reviewed by: Loni R.

We were really pleased with the waterfall hike and our tour guide, Katie. She got us hooked up with good footwear ($10 each to rent, which is definitely worth it). The hike itself was short but sweet, and we learned a lot about local plants and animals. Katie found some white Hawaiian ginger and showed us how to suck nectar from the roots and demonstrated how one might make paper using the papyrus growing by the water.

The waterfalls were gorgeous and very private. We were a small group of about 8 and we saw no one else. The second waterfall, the one you swim in, was wonderful. The water was cool but refreshing and Katie guided us all (even younger kids) as we climbed up to walk behind it.

After the swim you do have a few minutes of pretty steep climbing, but the shoes and the guard ropes really help and no one had any issues (aside from being a tad winded).

I highly recommend this tour and will absolutely do it again.

絶景スカイダイビング　一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動！ビデオ＆写真撮影付きプランあり　by ゴージャンプハワイ＜送迎付き＞

It's the best‼️‼️ もう、最高‼️‼️

Reviewed by: masa

To provide some reference for others, here are the reasons I chose Pacific Skydiving for my experience. The decision was made because they had specific days available that matched my travel dates. There was no shuttle service, so I had to rent a car to get there. It took about an hour using the highway, and while the area around Waikiki can be quite congested, it clears up after a while. (Be cautious of speed traps along the way; Google shows marked enforcement points.)

After about an hour, I could see the airport, and if I turned onto the road before it, I found Pacific Skydiving and another company's location.
1. At the check-in counter, I stated my reservation name and completed the registration.
2. I took the waiver I received at check-in to a room for a safety briefing.
3. I was given an English waiver to fill out, but it was quite lengthy and might be difficult unless you're fluent in English. When I said I didn't understand, they provided me with a Japanese sample; however, I was advised not to fill it out as it would be used later.
4. After watching a safety video, my registration was complete. I was then told to wait in the waiting area. (This part took a while; I waited about an hour. If it’s busy, it might take longer. The order is determined by the sequence of check-ins rather than the reservation time.)
5. While waiting, an announcement was made, and it was finally time to gear up. When called, I went to the counter to receive a sticker with my name on it. I placed the sticker on my body and waited for the instructor to come and attach the harness. Since I didn't choose the camera or video option, I waited until the instructor arrived. Those who opted for the camera had a photographer take various commemorative photos and videos before the jump.
6. Finally, it was showtime. When the plane arrived, the instructor called out, "Alright, let's go!" and we headed over together.
7. Now, it was time to board the Cessna. (I was getting nervous.) This time, there were six tandem jumpers plus the photographer. There were two rows of benches, and since it was a tandem dive, the instructor sat first, and we all got ready in front of them. We took off.
8. Once we reached altitude, there was no turning back. I felt the urge to jump and went with the instructor. This was the scariest part.
9. Once we jumped, it was over in an instant. I believe this experience is something you can't find anywhere else. It was amazing!! By the way, my son, who jumped with me, said it was the best, but he tends to get motion sickness, so he seemed to struggle a bit. I usually handle motion sickness well, but I couldn't shake off the floating sensation afterward. It’s advisable to be cautious when driving the rental car.

I’ve shared my experience, and I highly recommend it; it was fantastic! Just remember, everything is at your own risk. Oh, and the optional costs are around $100.

少しでも他の方の参考になるように。
今回、利用したパシフィックスカイダイビング様に決めました理由を。
その理由は、曜日が限定していること、滞在日に合致してることで決定しました。
送迎はありませんでした、自身でレンタカーを借りて行くしかないです。
行くまでは高速を使って約1時間、ワイキキ周辺は結構混みますが途中から空いてきます。
(途中スピード違反取り締まりに注意、Googleで調べると取り締まりポイントのマークあり)
約1時間を過ぎると飛行場が見えてくるので手前の道路を曲がるとパシフィックスカイダイビング様と、別会社様の場所があります。
①チェックインカウンターで予約した氏名を告げ受付します。
②受付で貰った誓約書を持ち安全説明のある部屋へ行きます。
③誓約書(英語)を渡され記入するように渡されますが、誓約書自体量が多く英語が堪能でない限り難しいと思います。
私は分からないと言ったら、日本語のサンプルを渡されました、しかし、これは今後も使うので記入しないようにと念を押されました。
④安全ビデオを見て本受付完了です。
その後、待合室で待っててくれと伝えられます。
(ここが長いです、小一時間待ちます。混んでいれば更に掛かると思います。予約の時間より受け付けた順番で順番が決まります。)
⑤待合室で待っていると放送が入り、いよいよ装備装着します。
呼ばれたらカウンターで名前の書いたシールを貰いに行きます。
シールを身体に貼り待っていると、インストラクターが来てハーネスを取り付けてくれます。
今回、私はカメラ、ビデオのオプションはつけませんでしたので、インストラクターが来るまで待ちぼうけ。
オプションを選んだ方はカメラマンが飛ぶ前から記念に色々な演出の写真ビデオを撮ってくれます。
⑥いよいよ、本番。
飛行機が来る時間になるとインストラクターから、よし行くぞ‼︎みたいに声をかけられて一緒に向かいます。
⑦さぁ、セスナへ搭乗です。(ドキドキしてきました)
今回は6タンデム＋カメラマン。
長椅子が2列あり、タンデムダイブなのでインストラクターが先に座り、その前に座り各々準備完了。
飛び立ちします。
⑧高度に到着したら、もう飛ぶしかないです。
行くしかない感じてインストラクターと飛びます。
ここが1番怖かった。
⑨飛んだら、もう一瞬です。
この体感は他では味合えないと思います。
最高ですね‼️
因みに一緒に飛んだ息子は最高と言いながら乗り物酔いに弱いのでヤバかったみたいです。
私も、乗り物酔いには強いのですが後々フワフワ感が消えませんでした。
レンタカーの運転は気をつけた方が良いでしょう。
以上、体験談を書きましたが最高ですのでお勧めしますね、是非。
ただ、何もかも自己責任です。
あ、後オプション費用ですが100$前後です。

クアロア・ランチ　大自然を楽しむ電動アシスト付きマウンテンバイクツアー　選べる初心者または上級者レベル＜2～3時間／送迎付きプランあり＞

Enjoying Kualoa. クアロアを満喫

Reviewed by: rainbow

I participated in a mountain bike tour for the first time. Since it was an electric assist bike, it was easy to go uphill. Even a fifth grader enjoyed it. We chose an easy course, and there were eight participants in the tour, with one guide explaining everything in English. The child didn't understand any English, but it was still fun just to explore that miraculous place. We didn't sweat excessively and could feel the refreshing breeze all over our bodies. At the filming location of Jurassic Park, they took photos and videos of each group pretending to be the cast. Everyone got into character, and we shared laughs over each other's performances, spending a wonderful time together.

初めてマウンテンバイクツアーに参加しました。
電動アシスト自転車なので、坂道も楽です。小学校5年生の子も楽しんでいました。
私たちは簡単なコースを選びました。ツアーは8人が参加し、1人のガイドさんが英語で説明してくれました。子供は英語が全く分かりませんが、それでもあの奇跡的な場所を巡るだけでも楽しいです。べったりと汗ばむこともなく、さわやかな風を全身で感じられます。ジュラシックパークの撮影地では出演者になりきる写真や動画を１組ずつ撮ってくれました。皆さん役者になりきり、それぞれの熱演を笑い合いステキな時間を過ごせました。

I want to go again if they provide support in Japanese! 日本語対応してくれたらまた行きたい！

Reviewed by: M.N

My first visit to Kualoa Ranch.
I actually wanted to do the Raptor Tour, but the morning tour was fully booked, so I decided on the E Mountain Bike Tour.

I’m 152 cm tall, and I was worried about being able to ride a mountain bike, but I was able to borrow a kids' bike (there happened to be one available). However, since the wheels were small, it was quite challenging to keep up.

As for the content, we were able to visit several movie filming locations, and it felt really nice to experience the wind while biking.

There were 8 people in our team, and the staff were cheerful. They explained various things, so I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had understood what they were saying. I would like to try the Japanese Raptor Tour next time!

Since it was August, I was worried about insect bites, but there were hardly any bugs, and I didn’t get bitten. Also, since we rode for two hours, you can get sunburned! There were quite a few people participating in long sleeves. I recommend sun protection!
The tour was from 9:30 to 11:30. The bus departed at 1 PM, so after the tour, I looked around the souvenir shop and had a light lunch. I had read that the food wasn’t very good, but that wasn’t the case! If I could wish for something, it would have been nice to have a beer.

ただ、車輪が小さいので着いていくのが結構大変でした。＞＜

内容としては、映画のロケ地もいくつか回れたし、自転車ならではの風を感じることができてとても気持ちよかったです。

1チーム8人でスタッフの人も陽気でした。
色々と説明してくれていたので、何を言っているか分かったら、もう少し楽しめたかな・・と思います。

紫外線対策をおすすめします！！
9:30~11:30がツアー参加。
13時にバスが出発するので、終わった後はお土産ショップ見たり軽くランチしました。

The Dole Plantation, which we stopped by along the way, was surprisingly enjoyable. I had a delicious pineapple soft serve and added to my collection of unique penny stamps.

The horseback riding at Makakeha Beach offers beautiful scenery, and the horses are well-trained, making it a safe and enjoyable experience even for beginners. There is a brief explanation of basic reins handling at the start, but generally, the horses follow the one in front automatically, so there's no need to worry.

途中に立ち寄るDolePlantationが意外と楽しめます。おいしいパインソフトを食べ、ここでしかないペニースタンプのコレクションが増えました。
MakakehaBeachの乗馬はとても景色がよく、馬もよく馴致されており初心者でも安心して楽しめると思います。最初に簡単な手綱さばき説明がありますが、基本お馬さんたちはオートマで前の馬についていくので心配しないでください。

マノア滝ハイキングツアー　大自然がもたらすエネルギーを全身で感じよう！＜日本語ガイド／オーガニックランチ付き＞

You can feel the nature of Oahu! オアフ島の自然を感じられる！

Reviewed by: ロッキー

We found out that there were no other Japanese participants besides us on the pickup bus, but we felt reassured knowing that our Japanese guide, Hiro, was there to support us. The path to Manoa Falls was through a lush tropical rainforest, allowing us to enjoy a side of Oahu beyond just the beaches. The local guide who explained about the plants was friendly and had a lively tone, making it enjoyable! After walking just under 1 km, we arrived at Manoa Falls, which had a decent height but a relatively low water flow. The width of the waterfall was unexpectedly narrow, which was a bit disappointing. Exiting the rainy tropical rainforest, Manoa town was dry, and it was interesting to see the climatic changes due to the terrain. We picked up lunch at a popular sandwich shop that has been around for three generations and headed to Tantalus Hill. Enjoying a sandwich that lived up to its reputation while overlooking Diamond Head and the hotels in Waikiki was incredibly pleasant. Although Hiro, our Japanese guide, mentioned that he has only been a guide for a short time, we appreciated his attention to detail.

ピックアップのバスに乗ってみて自分達夫婦以外に日本人の参加者はいないことが分かりましたが、ちゃんと日本人ガイドのHiroさんが付いてサポートしてくれて安心。
マノアの滝までの道は鬱蒼とした熱帯雨林で、ビーチだけではないオアフ島を楽しめた。植物などについて説明してくれた現地ガイドの方は気さく、軽快な口調で面白かった！1km弱歩いて到着したマノアの滝は高さはそこそこあるものの水量が少なめ。滝の幅が予想外に狭くてややガッカリ。雨が降る熱帯雨林から出るとマノアの街はカラッとしていて地形による気候の変化が面白かった。街中で3代続く人気のサンドイッチ店でランチをピックアップしてタンタラスの丘へ。ここからダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキのホテル群など一望しながら、人気店と言われることが納得できるサンドイッチを頬張るのは凄く心地良かった。
日本人ガイドのHiroさんはガイド歴はまだ短いとのことだったが、細かい気配りがありがたかった。

My sister and I went to Kualoa Ranch for my birthday to do the E-Bike tour, and we are so glad that we did. It was so much fun riding E-Bikes. There was a slight delay in getting started due to the sizes of the bikes being a good fit for the riders. Justice and Christian went above and beyond to find the right bike for each rider. Once we got started on our tour, it was so much fun riding around the ranch. The ranch is so beautiful, and Justice is very knowledgeable with the history of the ranch and shared all of the "Fun Facts" with us during our stops making it interesting. The only negative thing that I could say is that I wish it was a longer ride, I didn't want to stop.
Next time I am in Oahu I will definitely be coming back :)

First time horseback riding in Haleiwa. 初めてのハレイワ乗馬

Reviewed by: みみみ

I usually don't write reviews, but I decided to do so because the tour guide left a very good impression on me. The guide was Japanese and shared various information about Hawaii during the bus rides to and from the destination.

Additionally, while reading other reviews, I noticed that some mentioned a very tight schedule where they only went horseback riding and couldn't explore Haleiwa. However, it seems that this has improved, as we had time to spend in Haleiwa. After enjoying coffee in Haleiwa, we went horseback riding, took about 30 minutes to eat garlic shrimp, and then relaxed at the Dole Plantation before returning to Waikiki. The horseback riding along the beach was leisurely for about an hour, and it was a wonderful experience.

I was also happy that the guide took photos for us and was very proactive.

普段口コミを書かないんですが、ツアーガイドさんがとても好印象だったので書くことにしました。
日本人？の方で、行きも帰りも移動中のバスの中でハワイのことを色々と話して下さってました。
また、他の方の口コミを見るとあまりにもタイトスケジュールで乗馬だけしてハレイワは散策出来ないとありましたが、改善されたのかハレイワで過ごす時間もありました。
ハレイワで珈琲飲んだ後に乗馬して、ガーリックシュリンプを30分くらいかけて食べ、ドールプランテーションでゆっくり過ごしワイキキへ戻りました。乗馬も海辺を1時間くらいゆっくり乗馬して
とても素敵な時間でした。

Riding horses on the sandy beach with my family was the best feeling! 家族で砂浜を乗馬、最高の気分でした！

Reviewed by: まっつん

My fourth-grade daughter had some horseback riding experience in Japan, but her parents had almost none, yet we felt comfortable participating. Since we met at the location, we rented a car through an app and headed there. It took just over an hour to arrive from our hotel in Waikiki. Our group consisted of a total of eight people, with only our family of three being Japanese. The rest were Europeans and Asians. My wife speaks English, but my daughter and I only know a little. Still, we managed just fine. It was amazing to be able to ride horses along the white sandy beach. There was a height restriction for horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, so my daughter couldn't participate there, but this tour was fine for ages six and up, so there was no problem. There was also a polo practice area, and it was fun to watch the polo practice.

小学四年生の娘は日本で何度か乗馬経験がありましたが、両親はほぼ乗馬経験なし、それでも安心して参加できました。現地集合のため、アプリでカーシェアリングの車を借り、現地へ。ワイキキ のホテルから1時間強くらいで到着しました。我々が参加した組は合計８名で日本人は我々家族三人のみ。あとは、欧米人とアジア系の方々。家内は英語を喋りますが私と娘は片言。それでもなんとかなりました。白い砂浜を馬に乗って散歩できるなんて最高でした。クアロアランチへの乗馬は身長制限があり、娘が参加できませんでしたが、こちらのツアーは確か6歳以上だったので問題ありませんでした。ポロの練習場が併設されていて、ポロの練習も見られて楽しかったです。

セスナ（小型飛行機）体験操縦　1名～参加OK！ハワイで気軽にフライトレッスンを体験　by LANI LEA SKY TOURS & Flight School

My 9-year-old daughter experienced flying a Cessna!! 娘(9才)がセスナの体験操縦！！

Reviewed by: まっつん

We participated as a family of three. Since it was a special occasion, we decided to let our 9-year-old daughter have the piloting experience instead of us, so she piloted while her parents were passengers. The hotel shuttle was also free, and they provided us with a lot of useful information since we were not familiar with Hawaii. When we informed them in advance that our daughter would be piloting and that she doesn't speak much English, they allocated extra time for a pre-flight briefing with the pilot, allowing her to fly without any issues. I initially thought she would only be holding the controls a little while in the air, but since the experience is run by a school that offers Cessna pilot licenses, she got to experience various maneuvers, including taxiing on the runway, takeoff, and right and left turns in the air. We left the landing to the pilot, of course... The communication in English was facilitated through headphones and a microphone, allowing our daughter, the pilot, and us to converse, so we could partially interpret for her. Since we participated the day before our return, it was amazing to see Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head, Hanauma Bay, Haleiwa, North Shore, Pearl Harbor, and even Kualoa Ranch, which we hadn't visited yet, from the sky! I would definitely like to participate again if the opportunity arises.

家族三人で参加しました。
せっかくだから、親ではなく娘に操縦体験をさせてあげようということとなり、9才の娘が操縦、両親が同乗者で申し込み。ホテルの送迎も無料で、ハワイ事情に疎い我々に色々とタメになる情報を教えて頂きました。事前に娘が体験操縦すること、娘は英語があまり喋れないことを連絡したところ、パイロットとの事前の打ち合わせに時間を多くとって貰い、問題なく飛ぶことが出来ました。体験操縦なので、上空で少々操縦桿を握る程度かと思っていましたが、元々はセスナの操縦ライセンスを取得できる学校が運営していることもあり、滑走路の運転から離陸、上空での右旋回、左旋回など様々な操縦を体験させて貰いました。流石に着陸はパイロットの方にお任せしましたが…英語の方もヘッドホンとマイクを通して、パイロットの方と娘、両親が会話を出来るので、部分的に我々が通訳することも出来ました。帰国前日に参加したので、それまで行ったワイキキ ビーチ、ダイヤモンドヘッド、ハナウマ湾、ハレイワ、ノースショア、パールハーバー、それからまだ行ったことのないクアロアランチなどを上空から見ることが出来て最高でした！また、機会があれば是非参加したいと思います。

It was a mountain on par with Mount Fuji, but with toilet breaks included, we gradually acclimated to the altitude and reached the summit without any issues. The clouds were thick, and I was worried, but by sunset, it cleared up quite a bit, allowing us to see a fantastic sunset. After it got completely dark, the guide pointed out the sky with a laser pointer, creating a truly natural planetarium experience. They also provided a high-quality telescope, through which we could clearly see Saturn's rings and the craters on the moon. Thank you very much.
