Hawaii
Since I wasn't confident in my stamina for the early morning course, I decided to join the sunset course, and I was very satisfied! The sunset view was also very beautiful, and the guide provided explanations in Japanese.
早朝コースだと体力に自信がなかったので、サンセットコースに参加することにしましたが、大満足でした！
サンセットの景色もとても綺麗でガイドの方も日本語で説明してくれました。
The journey to the summit can be bumpy, so if you're prone to motion sickness, I recommend taking some anti-nausea medication. The starry sky is very beautiful, but it's difficult to capture it on an

We had a great time. The views were awesome. Was worth the money
The famous observatories from various countries located at the summit over 4000 meters stand out in white, and I found it breathtakingly beautiful as they were dyed in the orange hue of the sunset. The starry sky was completely different from the night sky I usually see, and I lay down on the road to take it all in.
4000mを超える山頂にある各国の有名な天文台の建物が白色で映える中、それが夕日のオレンジ色に染まるところが息を呑むほど綺麗だと感じました。
星空は、普段見る夜空とは完全に別物で道路に寝転がって見ました。

We had a wonderful experience with captain Zach and Bailey They both were very friendly and knowledgeable. Great value. Boat was clean well organized and comfortable.
My first skydiving experience was incredibly nerve-wracking. I really felt that the Earth is round.
I want to try it again next time.
Next time, 18,000 ft...!!
初めてのスカイダイビング
めちゃくちゃ緊張しました
地球は丸いんだな〜って感じました
次来たら又挑戦してみたい
次は18000ft…‼️
You should experience it at least once!

We visited on our honeymoon.
Thanks to the veteran Japanese instructor who accompanied us as a co-pilot, we were able to fly with peace of mind!
What made me especially happy was that they provided detailed explanations of the scenery we could see during the flight.
Since it was our second day in Hawaii, I felt excited as if I were preparing for the places we would visit next!
If you're not confident in your English, I recommend securing a Japanese instructor!
Thank you so much 😊
ハネムーンで来訪しました。
ベテランの日本人インストラクターが副操縦士に乗ってくれたので常に安心してフライトすることができました！
特に嬉しかったのが、フライト中に見えている景色を詳しく解説してくれたことです。
初ハワイの2日目だったので、これからまわる所の予習をしている気分でワクワクしました！
英語に自信がない方は日本人インストラクターの確約をつけた方がいいです！
本当にありがとうございました😊

It was the best experience!! On the way to the summit, the scenery made me feel like I was on Mars, with the sun sinking into a sea of clouds. The dynamic presence of nature was truly amazing.
And under the starry sky, being able to see Saturn's rings through a telescope was an extraordinary experience. As more stars appeared, I was able to take photos with the starry sky as a backdrop. The cocoa they provided when I was feeling cold warmed both my body and heart. Our guide, James, explained everything clearly, and I’m really glad I asked for his help. I would love to rely on them again next time.
最高の体験でした！！山頂に向かう途中、火星に自分が来たような景色と雲海に沈んでいく太陽。ダイナミックな自然のありようは、本当に素晴らしかったです。
そして、満点の星空では、望遠鏡で土星の輪も見れたのも、非日常の体験でした。だんだんと星が増えてきて、星空をバックに写真も撮っていただだけました。体が冷えていた時に出してくれたココアで、体も心も温まりました。ガイドのジェームスが色々説明してくれたのもわかりやすくて、お願いしてとても良かったです。また次も、お世話になりたいと思いました。

You start with a 3-minute video explanation in Japanese. After that, the driving begins, and you stop about three times for photo spots and explanations. The guide's explanations are all in English. The guide often asked if we wanted to take photos. It was fine to wear shorts. I was unsure about wearing sandals, but in the end, I went with sneakers, which was the right choice since it made it easier to press the accelerator and brake. You cover your face with goggles and a provided mask, but by the end, the areas that weren't covered were dirty from the dust, which was funny. If you come to Hawaii, this is something you should definitely do. It's a wonderful experience.
最初の運転の説明は日本語の映像を3分ほど見ます。その後、運転が始まり、3回ほど降りてフォトスポットや説明が入ります。ガイドさんの説明は全て英語です。
ガイドさんが写真を撮ろうか？とたくさん言ってくれました。
半ズボンでも大丈夫でした。サンダルでもいいかな？と迷いましたが、結局スニーカーで行きました、アクセルブレーキを踏みやすいのでスニーカーで正解でした。ゴーグルと配布マスクで顔面を覆いますが、終わったときには、覆えていなかった隙間のところが、土埃での汚れていました笑
ハワイに来たら、行った方がいいです。素敵な体験。

I thought waking up early would be tough, but the sunrise from Diamond Head is worth the early wake-up! They also handle reservations, which makes it easy. They teach you about the area while driving around. They took us to a great place for the popular malasada donuts, so we didn't have to wait and could eat them right away! They also recommend good lunch spots and share which ones are not so great (laughs). I had the rare experience of cracking and eating nuts myself. There was also time for shopping, and it was a fun tour packed with activities!
早起きが大変かなと思いましたが、ダイヤモンドヘッドから見る朝日は早起きの価値あります！予約もやって下さってるので楽ちんです。
車でこの辺はこんなところだよとかいろいろ教えてくれます。
人気のマラサダドーナツも並ばなくて良いところに案内してくれてすぐ食べられました！
お昼ご飯もオススメのお店とこれはイマイチ、、みたいなことも教えてくれます(笑)
ナッツの殻を自分で割って食べるという貴重な体験もしました。
買い物する時間もありますし、盛りだくさんのツアーで楽しかったです！

When the start time arrives, say your name at the reception, then sign in and weigh yourself. After that, you will watch an explanatory video in Japanese, put on your helmet, grab your mini bag, and get started. The mini bag is designed to be hooked onto the horse and can hold your phone and water. Any other valuables should be stored in a locker. The lockers accept card payments, and a locker for two people costs $14, which is quite funny.
The horses are cute and well-behaved. However, there will surely be awkward moments when they try to eat grass or relieve themselves, and when you want them to move forward but they don't respond even if you kick them.
At first, you won't have the leisure to enjoy the scenery, but you'll start to appreciate it later on, thinking, "Wow, this is Jurassic Park!" The views are magnificent and breathtaking.
開始時間になったら受付に名前を言って、署名と体重を測ります。（英語）
その後日本語の説明動画をみて、メット被ってミニバックを持って早速乗ります。
ミニバックはお馬さんに引っ掛けられるようになっていて携帯と水のみ入れます。それ以外の貴重品はロッカーにしまいます。
ロッカーはカード払い可能で、2人分のロッカーは14ドルもします笑
お馬さんは可愛くていい子です。
でも途中草食べようとしたり用を足したり、前に進んでほしい時に蹴っても進まないという気まづい瞬間がきっとあります笑
景色を見る余裕は最初なくてジュラシックパークのところだー！とか味わう余裕は途中から出てきます。景色は壮大で素晴らしいです。
I wanted to take a lot of photos since I was there, but at first, the horse was swaying and it was scary. I was worried that if I dropped my phone, it would be over, so I couldn't take as many picture
せっかくなのでたくさん写真撮りたいですが、最初は普通にお馬さん揺れて怖いし、携帯落としたら終わるのでびびって思うほど写真撮れなかった...

From Diamond Head in the morning to the North Shore, it was packed with activities, and Jonah's attentiveness was top-notch. You can fully enjoy Hawaii with so much to do. I absolutely recommend it. My friend was able to get the Diamond Head version of the sunburned kitty, and we had a wonderfully satisfying day.
朝のダイヤモンドヘッドから、ノースまで、とにかく目白押しで、ジョナさんの気配りも最高でした。
盛り沢山でハワイを満喫できます。

Since we're going to Diamond Head in the morning, it's better to change clothes. As expected, I broke a sweat.

Although I go to the gym, climbing the mountain was quite tough for someone in their 60s. I thought to myself, "This might be my last experience in life?" as I climbed. At the summit, I was able to see the hotel district and the distant sea, making all the sweat and effort worthwhile. It really made me realize that the Earth is round!
They handled the application process for climbing, which you can't do without prior approval, and the entrance fee was included! They also provided water, so all I had to do was show up in sneakers and light workout clothes! There was also a shuttle service to the hotel.
Considering that I would have to check the bus schedule, take the bus, and handle the application myself, I think this was quite a good deal.
ジムに通っているとはいえ、60代のこの身には結構厳しい山登りでした。人生でこれが最後の体験かも？と思いながら登りました。頂上ではホテル街や遠い海原までも一望でき、汗水流して登った甲斐がありました。地球って丸いんだな！って認識できます。
事前申請しないと登れないところを代行してもらえるし、入山料？も込み！ そしてお水も用意してくださり、こちらはスニーカーと軽い運動できる服装で行くだけ！ホテルへの送迎もついていました。
これをバス時間を調べてバスに乗って、事前の申請もして、と考えるとお安いのではないかと思います。

I joined a Cessna flying experience at my husband's request. It was organized by a company run by a Japanese person, and they offered a plan with a Japanese guide. Even though I can't speak English, I had no worries at all and was able to participate with peace of mind.
I participated on the last day of my trip, and the view of the places we visited from the sky was exceptional.
During the flight, not only did they provide driving instructions, but they also gave detailed explanations about the locations, making it a wonderful experience to conclude my trip.
Thank you for the excellent hospitality from the pick-up to the return.

I was a bit anxious about driving the buggy, but I was able to drive without any problems. Just be careful because the sand can get in your face. It was fun!

While buggies and horseback riding are famous, I consulted with my companions and chose the option that was easier to navigate. The explanation was only in English, but the beautiful scenery was amazing!

Riding a horse while gazing at the blue sea and sky, and the pure white beach was the plan! However, it unexpectedly rained!! It wasn't just a quick shower; it rained continuously. I was really disappointed, but it became a good memory nonetheless.
The driver was very talkative and knowledgeable about the tour. He understood the horses' personalities well, so he rejected the more mischievous ones and arranged for us to ride the well-behaved horses. Thanks to that, we were able to enjoy a relaxing horseback ride without any issues.
In Haleiwa, we bought limited edition products and enjoyed delicious food. We had so much fun that we almost ran out of time.
It was so enjoyable that I hope to participate again someday, hopefully on a sunny day!
青い海と空、真っ白なビーチを眺めながら馬に乗る！予定でしたが、まさかの雨天！！スコールでもなく、ずっと雨。
すごく残念でしたがそれもまたいい思い出。
ドライバーの方はとてもお話上手でこのツアーを熟知されています。
馬の性格もよく分かっているので、ヤンチャな馬は先に拒否してくださって、私たちにはお利口さんの馬を手配してくださいました。
そのおかげで私たちは特に困ることなくのんびり乗馬を楽しめました。

I started with a hike up Diamond Head and had a fulfilling day visiting various places. The guide provided a lot of information at key points and shared interesting stories, which made it enjoyable. They also helped by taking many photos. I definitely want to participate again when I come back to Hawaii.

My wife wanted to visit Diamond Head❣️ Since I was still feeling the fatigue in my legs from the previous day's tour of Pearl Harbor and bowling, I took my time climbing to the top. Even so, I had two hours until the pick-up car arrived, so I was in no rush.
The view was absolutely amazing❣️ It felt great❣️

前日のパールハーバー見学とボウリングの疲労が脚に残っていたので、休憩しながら登頂しました。それでも、迎えの車まで2時間あったので、余裕でした。

Especially for those over sixty:
1. I recommend drinks like Pocari Sweat or Aquarius instead of water or tea.
2. I suggest wearing familiar shoes that provide good support.

We departed in the evening and reached the summit at an altitude of 4,200 meters, above the clouds. The moment the sun set, the sky transformed from orange to deep blue, which was truly breathtaking. The guide carefully explained the constellations and planets, and it was moving to see the Milky Way with the naked eye. The temperature is quite low, so warm clothing is essential. The down jacket that was provided was very helpful. The photos taken by the professionals during the tour were also wonderful and perfect for remembering the trip.

If you simply want to see the summit of Mauna Kea and the starry sky, you can rent a car and go on your own, but having a tour guide allows for a richer experience with various stories about Hawaii and detailed explanations of the night sky. It made for a more fulfilling time. Additionally, the attention to detail was wonderful, making the entire experience from gathering to dispersal completely stress-free! Thank you very much.

On this day, I participated in the ATV tour at Kualoa Ranch. The meeting time was 10:15, and the tour started at 12:00. The meeting place was very easy to find, and when the time came, a staff member holding a sign that said "Kualoa" guided us, so there was no confusion. Among the participants, there were only two groups of Japanese, including us.
On the bus ride there, the driver introduced various sights in English, allowing us to enjoy the scenery on the way. When we arrived for lunch, we immediately separated by tour type and checked in at the desk. There was no long wait, and the tour started smoothly.
The tour explanation was all in English, but the guide occasionally took photos for us, and whenever we reacted positively, they joined in to make it a fun atmosphere. Conversely, if we remained quiet due to our typical Japanese shyness, it might have felt a bit wasted. It's definitely better to enjoy it wholeheartedly!
After the tour ended, we had about an hour until the bus meeting time, so we decided to take a leisurely lunch break. We ordered burgers as the main dish and onion rings as a side. We ate around 14:30, and even sharing between the two of us was more than enough, leaving us satisfied.
The return bus ride was also very smooth, and we arrived in Waikiki by 16:30. It was a fulfilling day where we could play in nature and enjoy a delicious lunch.
この日はクアロアランチのバギーツアーに参加しました。集合時間は10:15で、ツアー開始は12:00。集合場所はとてもわかりやすく、時間になると「Kualoa」と書かれた看板を持ったスタッフの方が案内してくれたので迷うこともありませんでした。参加者の中で日本人は、私たちを含めて2グループだけでした。
行きのバスでは、運転手さんが英語でいろいろな見どころを紹介してくれて、景色を楽しみながら向かうことができました。ランチに到着すると、すぐにツアーの種類ごとに分かれてデスクで受付を行います。特に長く待つこともなく、スムーズにツアーがスタートしました。
ツアーの説明はすべて英語ですが、ガイドさんが時々写真を撮ってくれたり、こちらが少しでもノリよくリアクションをすると一緒に盛り上げてくれたりと、とても楽しい雰囲気でした。逆に、日本人特有のシャイな態度で静かにしていると、少しもったいないかもしれません。思い切って楽しんだ方が絶対に良いです！
ツアー終了後は、バスの集合時間まで約1時間あったので、のんびりランチタイムを取ることにしました。バーガーをメインに、サイドメニューはオニオンリングを注文。14:30頃に食べたのですが、2人でシェアしても十分な量で満足できました。
帰りのバスもとてもスムーズで、16:30にはワイキキに到着。大自然の中で思いきり遊べて、美味しいランチも楽しめた、大満足の1日になりました。
