Hawaii
I was planning to take a bus near H&M and was waiting for its arrival. It didn't come for 5 minutes, but it eventually arrived, and I boarded. After about 30 to 40 minutes of bouncing on the bus, we arrived at the airport. Inside the bus, we watched an instructional video and filled out a contract. I was a bit surprised by the contents of the contract.
Upon arriving at the airport, a woman asked if we wanted to take photos or videos. After that, we checked our luggage and followed the instructions from the staff. After receiving the explanation, we waited about 5 minutes for the Cessna to arrive. I was impressed by the speedy response here as well.
The Cessna arrived, and we boarded directly. We flew for about 10 minutes, reaching an altitude of around 4,200 meters, and then we jumped out one after another. I was surprised at how quick it felt.
The moment of jumping was very scary, but once in the air, the strong wind made it feel less terrifying, almost like being on a roller coaster, and I was desperately falling. The change in air pressure caused pain in my ears and made it hard to breathe. As the parachute opened and we descended to the ground, it spun around a bit, giving a floating sensation similar to being on a roller coaster, which was fun.
It seems there are individual differences, as some people may feel nauseous. Even though I'm not a fan of roller coasters, I found skydiving enjoyable, so I definitely recommend giving it a try!
H&M付近でバスに乗る予定で、到着を待ってました。5分経っても来なかったですが、無事に来てくださり、搭乗。
30〜40分バスに揺られながら飛行場到着
バスの車内で講習ビデオと契約書の記入を済ませます。
契約書の内容はちょっと驚きました
飛行場に到着し、女性の方から写真やビデオを撮影するかを聞かれます
そのあと、荷物を預けて担当の方に指示に従います。
説明を受けて5分程でセスナが来るのを待ちます。ここでもスピーディーな対応に驚きました
セスナが来てそのまま14フィート？
10分程乗ります
4200mほどに到着したら続々と飛び降ります
ここでも一瞬な感じだったので驚きました
飛び降りる瞬間は非常に怖いですが、飛んでしまえば風が強くてジェットコースターに乗るような恐怖感は無く必死に落ちてました
気圧の変化により耳が痛いのと呼吸がしにくいです
パラシュートを開いて地上に降りていくのですが、そのときグルグル回ってくれるのでジェットコースターに乗ってる時のような
ふわっとした感覚はありますが楽しかったです
個人差はあるようですが、吐き気を催す方も中にはいらっしゃるみたいです
ジェットコースターが苦手なのにスカイダイビングは楽しかったので是非やってみる事をオススメします

We tried it with three people aged 68, 60, and 47. At first, we were nervous, but after sliding down twice, we started to feel more relaxed. The price is a bit on the higher side, but it might be fun.

The shuttle driver was driving too fast, probably exceeding 120 km/h on a one-lane road. Masa's explanations were very difficult to understand. Also, he insisted too much on taking videos and photos. I was taught some strange ear-clearing techniques, but please don't take them too seriously and just do it normally. I followed the instructions as I was told, but my ears hurt too much.
送迎ドライバーさんがとばしすぎ1車線の道路で軽く120キロ超えてそう。
マサさんの説明が分かりにくすぎ。そしてビデオと写真をしつこく勧めすぎ。
変な耳抜きを教えられますが、あまり参考にせず普通にやって下さい。言われた通りやったと思いますが耳痛すぎました。

I enjoyed this event very much because of the beautiful view and interesting stories about the stars. At about 8 to 8:30 pm, the sky was getting darker and darker. I was able to many stars in the sky with my naked eyes. However, if your eyesight is not very good, I recommend you bring your glasses or wear contacts. I was able to see the cluster of stars, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and more through the telescope. I really liked it, especially because it is such a rare opportunity to observe the stars through telescopes.
Mahalo and Aloha. Keep reaching for the stars!!
The stargazing and sunset were beyond my expectations. I had heard it would be cold, but the warm clothing kept me comfortable, and I was able to enjoy the sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea. The bento we had along the way was delightful, featuring white rice, fried white fish, and teriyaki chicken, along with some vegetables! The taro or sweet potato was delicious. And the miso soup was a bit salty for me!
After the sunset, the stargazing was amazing. Our guide, MASA, showed us Jupiter through the telescope, and the second guide (Yona-mitchi?!) explained the stars very well! I was surprised to see the Southern Cross. I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't find out my own constellation.
Thank you for ensuring I didn't get altitude sickness and for bringing me back safely.
思っていた以上の星空とサンセットでした。寒いとは聞いて今したが、防寒具がとても暖かくマウナケアの山頂でも楽しんでサンセットを見ることができました。途中のお弁当も、久々に白いゴハンに白身のさかなのフライにチキンの照り焼きのような…と、お野菜！私は、タロ芋なのかお芋がサツマイモのようでおいしかったです。あと、お味噌汁！若干しょっぱかったかな！私には。
サンセットの後の星空観測は、ガイドのMASAさんが天体望遠鏡で木星を見せていただき２台目のガイドさん(よなみっちさん？！)が、星空の説明をしていただき良く分かりました！南十字星が見れたのがびっくりでした。私の星座も知りたかったのが、少し残念でした。
高山病にもならず無事に帰って来れてありがとうございました。

Myself & family wasn’t super impressed with activity, not too exciting & too hot/slow, too big of groups to wait in heat. Staff was super nice thou no change with them.
By far one of the highlights of our trip ,If you love nature and a good adventure this is the most magical and stunning place well worth it , the views are just breathtaking ,Jennifer is so amazing thanks a lot for the amazing experience it truly was magical 100% RECOMMENDED
I had a great time with a full two hours of horseback riding, which included a few thrilling moments (due to the horse's state of mind). The two female guides were charming and reliable. The only downside was the cleanliness of the shuttle car that took us to the riding area in the valley.
2時間たっぷりの乗馬時間で、少しハラハラするようなハプニング(馬の精神状態)もあり、とても楽しかったです。
ガイドの女性２人もチャーミングで頼りがいあり。
マイナス点は渓谷下の馬場へ送迎するシャトルカーの清潔度くらい。

The highlight is that they share the names of plants and interesting facts during the hike. If it weren't for the tour guide, I would just be walking without knowing anything (laughs). Since you're there, please enjoy the hike while asking various questions! The lunch bento is also healthy and delicious!
いち押しは、植物の名前や豆知識など行きのハイキング中に
教えてくれること。ツワーでなかったら、何もわからず歩いてるだけ(笑)
せっかくなので、いろいろ聞きながら楽しくハイキングしてくださいね♪
ランチのお弁当もヘルシーでおいしいですヨ♪

This is the number one optional tour I've participated in so far! The guide, Yamapi, really conveyed his desire for the participants to enjoy themselves, and I was moved by his hospitality. I believe this is a tour he has done many times, but I felt he delivered the best performance every time. I think that's truly amazing.
Haleakalā has an elevation similar to that of Mount Fuji, so I was a bit worried about altitude sickness, but we ascended the mountain by car with breaks along the way, which minimized the physical strain, and I had no problems at all.
The sunset viewed from the grand panorama, the shadow of the Earth, and the starry sky were beyond what can be captured in photos; the scenery I saw with my own eyes is something I will never forget for the rest of my life.
After stargazing, I felt my heart was cleansed while listening to Yamapi's stories over a warm cup of tea. Since this trip was a turning point in my life, it resonated deeply with me, and I felt motivated to keep moving forward.
Considering the history of the stars, I want to live my life to the fullest without regrets, even if it's just for the blink of an eye! I hope to bring my family here someday. Thank you so much, Yamapi!
今まで参加したオプショナルツアーの中でNo.1です！
ガイドの山ピーさんが、参加者に楽しんでもらいたいと思う気持ちが伝わってきて、そのホスピタリティにも感動しました。きっと何回も行っているツアーだと思いますが、毎回最高のパフォーマンスをされているのだなと感じました。本当にすごいことだと思います。
ハレアカラは富士山とさほど変わらない標高で、高山病なと少し心配もしていましたが、少しずつ休憩しながら車で山を上がっていくので、体の負担も最小限で、全く問題なかったです。
大パノラマで見るサンセット、地球の影、満点の星空、写真では伝えるには限界があるほど、自分の目でみた景色は、これから一生忘れることはないと思います。
スターゲイジングの後に、温かいお茶を飲みながら、山ピーさんのお話を聞いて、心が洗われた気持ちになりました。人生の分岐点での旅だったので、ぐっと刺さるものがあり、また前を向いて頑張っていこうと思えました。
星の歴史からすると、瞬き3回ほどの人生を精一杯、悔いなく生きたいと思います！
いつか家族を連れて、またここに来たいです。
山ピーさん、本当にありがとうございました！
I feel that Haleakalā has some incredible power. As I climb to the summit at 3,000 meters every day and watch the sunset and stars, I think about living life to the fullest and hope to be of help to others, even just a little. I'll do my best!
ハレアカラ山は何か凄いパワーを持っている気が致します。自分も毎日3000メートルの山頂に登りながら夕焼けと星を観ていて想うのは一生懸命生きて、少しでも人の力になれたらいいなぁと思っています。頑張ります！

Had an amazing time on this trail ride/waterfall swim!
The ride was lovely, perfect weather for both us and the horses, and the waterfall was beautiful! Very peaceful area, refreshing water, perfect way to cool off mid-ride! Our guide was wonderful! Not only did she get us to the waterfall before other groups, she taught us a bit about Hawaii and the nature on the trail, and best of all she clearly loves the horses and takes great care of them.
Great company, friendly and caring staff, wonderful experience. Highly recommend!
My wife and I participated together.
The weather was nice, and the sea and mountains were very beautiful.
The horses were very well trained and walked in a line, behaving nicely.
All the support staff spoke English.
I felt a bit inconvenienced that Japanese was not understood.
If I have the opportunity, I would like to participate again.
妻と2人で参加しました。
天気が良く海や山が大変綺麗でした。
馬は大変よく調教されていて１列に並んで行儀良く歩いてくれます。
サポートの方はすべて英語でした。
日本語が通じないのが少し不便に感じました。
機会があればまた参加したいと思います。

I signed up for the 9 o'clock session, but the meeting time was at 4:30. From there, we visited several hotels for pickups and then headed to the airport with about an hour's drive. Eating and drinking were prohibited in the car, so I woke up early and had a light breakfast before heading out. We watched a 10-minute video about safety precautions in the car and filled out liability forms, then I dozed off. In America, the legal system is quite detailed, and the forms had a lot of information.
Once we arrived at the airport, the staff checked our documents and collected our passports (copies are acceptable). The elderly staff member's explanations were a bit unclear; for instance, they didn’t mention that there were coin lockers available, and they told us not to use the lockers because they would watch our bags, but they didn’t really keep an eye on them... so I think it’s better to act with personal responsibility. The lockers can be used with four 25-cent coins. If you want to take photos with your iPhone or similar, it’s better not to put it in the locker; I left mine on the table in the waiting area during the skydiving.
About eight groups board the plane at a time, so there is a wait. There was a food truck, so we could have light snacks and drinks while waiting. When it was my turn, I got fitted with a harness and practiced how to jump with my assigned instructor. All the instructors were very energetic and friendly! They gave instructions in simple Japanese, but the basic conversation was in English.
And then, finally, it was time for takeoff! We ascended to an altitude of 4,200 meters over about 10 minutes. The ocean was incredibly beautiful, and I could see Waikiki and Diamond Head! From there, it was over in a flash! Without hesitation, we jumped (or fell?) one by one! The sensation of freefall was unlike anything I had ever experienced. It didn’t feel like floating; it felt like I was cutting through the cold wind. Strangely, there was no sense of fear! In fact, I felt more scared after the parachute opened... After about five minutes in the air, we landed successfully, just as we practiced!
I received a certificate, and that was it. The instructor handed me a bag for tips, so I put in $20 and dropped it in the box. I waited for about an hour until the pickup car arrived, and we returned to Waikiki just after 11. Since there is some waiting time, I think it’s a good idea to bring light snacks like cookies. It was a sensation I had never experienced before, and it was so much fun! I think everyone should try it at least once in their lifetime!
9時からの回に申し込みましたが集合時間は4：30でした。
そこからいくつかホテルを周りピックアップをしてから１時間ほどのドライブで飛行場まで向かいます。
車内は飲食禁止なので早起きして軽く朝食を食べてから向かいました。車内で注意事項等のビデオを10分ほど見て、免責等の書類を記入してあとはウトウトしていました。アメリカは訴訟社会、かなり細かく記載がありました。
飛行場に着いてからスタッフの方に書類のチェックとパスポート（コピー可）の提出を行います。高齢のスタッフの方でしたが説明がわかりずらく、コインロッカーがあるのに説明がなかったり、自分が荷物を見ててやるからロッカーは使うな（でもほったらかしで見てなかった・・・）と言ってみたりだったので自己責任のもと行動した方がいいと思います。
ロッカーは25セントコイン４枚で使用できます。自分のiPhoneなどで写真を取りたい方はロッカーには入れずスカイダイビング中は待合所のテーブルの上に置いていっていました。
飛行機には８組くらいづつ乗り込むので順番待ちをします。フードトラックがきているので軽食を食べたり飲み物を飲むこともできました。
順番が来たらハーネスをつけてもらい、自分の担当のインストラクターの方と飛び方の練習をします。どのインストラクターの方もテンションが高めで感じのよい方達です！指示は簡単な日本語でしてくれますが、基本会話は英語になります。
そしていよいよテイクオフ！10分ほどかけて高度4200メートルまで上がります。海がとっても綺麗でワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドまで見渡せます！そこからはあっという間！ためらう間も無く順番に飛んで（落ちて？）行きます！フリーフォール中の感覚は今までにない感覚。ふわっと感はなくって冷たい風の中をくぐり抜けている感じ。恐怖感は不思議とない！それよりもパラシュートが開いてからの方が怖かった・・・5分ほど空中を飛んでから着陸。練習通りにできました！
証明書をいただいておしまいです。インストラクターの方にチップを入れる袋を渡されるので20ドル〜を入れて箱に入れておきます。
迎えの車が来るまで小一時間待ち、11時過ぎにはワイキキに戻りました。
待っている時間がちょこちょこあるのでクッキーみたいな軽食を持っていくといいと思います。
今までに味わったことのない感覚でとても楽しかったです！一生に一度は体験してみるといいと思います！

I took an Uber to get there.
From the road, I could see a green-roofed waiting area with several chairs and a table that had a simple guide in Japanese on how to ride.
There were only me and my daughter, a white man, and a cute girl who guided us, making a total of three people.
We enjoyed a leisurely horseback ride through the fields and North Shore.
Sometimes the horse would stop to eat grass or urinate, which was also fun.
We thoroughly enjoyed 90 minutes on the North Shore.
If you're expecting a fast-paced ride, it might feel a bit lacking, but if you want to relax and enjoy, it's perfect.
Since there were no other Japanese people in the later group, it felt very Hawaiian.
I was a bit anxious because the Uber driver who brought us said it would be difficult to get an Uber back, but I was able to ride after waiting for 20 minutes.
I think it's a bit far from Waikiki, but I highly recommend this horseback riding experience.
ウーバーに乗って行きました
道路から見える緑色の屋根が待合室で椅子が何客かありテーブルに日本語で書かれた簡単な乗り方の説明書が置いてありました
日本人は私と娘だけで白人の男性一人で計三人で可愛い女の子がガイドしてくれました
野原、ノースショアをとことこ乗馬して
たまに馬が草を食べて動かなくなったりオシッコしたりで脱線しますがそれも楽しかったです
90分たっぷりノースショアを堪能しました
走る乗馬を期待している方は物足りないかもしれませんがのんびり楽しみたいなら最高です
後発のグループも日本人がいなかったのでハワイ感がありました
帰りのウーバーを期待するのむずかしいと
乗せて来てくれたウーバーの運転主が言っていたので不安でしたが20分待ってのることが出来ました
ワイキキからはちょっと遠いとは思いますが
とってもお勧めの乗馬です

I like roller coasters and have experienced bungee jumping, so I thought I had a good tolerance for thrills, floating sensations, and heights. However, skydiving felt more like a constant state of motion sickness. As soon as I jumped, I was hit by an intense wind that made it hard to breathe, and my contact lenses flew away. Once the parachute opened, it felt like being spun around in a coffee cup at an amusement park, and I just wanted to come down quickly.
Additionally, the tour bus to the airport was shared with others. The bus had a capacity of about 20 people, and several buses arrived at the same time. This meant that with the foreigners included, there were about 60 to 80 people receiving explanations, but the plane that actually took off had only 8 seats, resulting in a significant wait time.
I’m not sure if the order for boarding the plane was random, but we left the hotel at 5:00 AM and arrived at the site by 6:30 AM, yet we didn’t get to skydive until 9:00 AM. We left the airport at 11:00 AM and got back to the hotel just after 12:00 PM.
Since some people can feel nauseous during skydiving, we weren’t allowed to eat anything in the morning until after the jump. Even after we finished, there was nothing nearby in the isolated airport area, just one truck with a food stall. It was so crowded that I couldn’t even buy a drink, so I recommend bringing your own water.
I personally don’t want to skydive again, but my husband, who doesn’t get motion sickness, said he had fun and would like to do it again, so it might depend on the person.
For those who want to create lasting memories, I highly recommend adding the photo option, even though it’s a bit pricey.
ジェットコースターは好きだし、バンジージャンプも経験したことがあるのでスリルや浮遊感、高所に対しての免疫は十分ある方でしたが、スカイダイビングはどちらかというと終始船酔いのような感覚でした。飛び降りると同時にものすごい強風に晒されるので息が上手くできなかったことや、装着していたコンタクトレンズはどこかへ飛んで行ってしまいました。パラシュートが開いてからは遊園地のコーヒーカップ？をぐるぐる回されているような感覚で早く降ろしてほしい気持ちでいっぱいでした。
また、移動のツアーバスは乗り合いで飛行場に向かいました。バスは20人ほどのキャパで何台かが同時に現地到着。つまり外国の方も合わせると60〜80人ほど説明を受けていますが実際上に上がる飛行機は8人乗りのため待ち時間がかなり発生しました。
飛行機に乗せてもらえる順番はランダムなのか、5時にホテルを出発し現地には6時半には着きましたがスカイダイビングできたのが9時です。帰宅できたのは11時に飛行場を出発して12時すぎのホテル着でした。
スカイダイビングは気分が悪くなる人もいるので吐いてしまうといけないからと朝は飛び終わるまで何も食べれません。飛び終わってからも隔離された飛行場内では近くに何もなくトラックが一台で屋台を出しているだけでした。
混雑して飲み物さえ買えないので事前にお水などは持っていくことをお勧めします。
私は二度とスカイダイビングをしたいとは思いませんが、主人は気分が悪くならないタイプだったので、楽しかった！またしたい！と言っていましたので、人によるのかもしれませんが…
むた思い出に残したい方は少し高い金額ですが絶対に写真撮影はオプションでつけることをお勧めします。

I decided on this tour/adventure package because it’s something that really interests me. From the coffee, to the excellent bbq picnic, the solar view of the sun setting, and of course the stars! Todd was our guide and he was so professional and was beyond knowledgeable in each area of the tour. He made everyone feel comfortable and was very engaging. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone wishing to do something that feels laid back, but covers a lot of ground.
Skydiving was the best memory. I had a separate photographer with me, and looking back, the photos turned out to be fantastical and beyond my imagination. I definitely recommend it!

I had my first horseback riding experience on Oahu, and I was so impressed by the location of the course that I've enjoyed horseback riding every time since.
Oahu and the Big Island of Hawaii have amazing locations, but Maui is also wonderful and has become a lifelong memory.
Also, even though it was a short distance, the galloping was surprisingly fun and I think I might get hooked.
The cheerful cowboys took many photos while we were riding.
I definitely want to participate again!
Just a heads up, the explanation before riding is in English only, so those who are new to horseback riding should be careful!

A friend recommended that I go up to nearly 4,000 meters on Mauna Kea, so I found this tour and joined. I was looking forward to enjoying the starry sky as we drove there, but due to an unexpected wildfire, we could only climb partway and had to turn back. Although I couldn't see the stars at the summit, the guide was very thoughtful and stopped the car at various points so we could admire the night sky. We were also able to see a beautiful sunset. It was extremely cold, but the guide lent me a cozy warm jacket, which was a lifesaver! I hope to be able to see the stars at the summit next time...
友人から「マウナケア4000メートル近くまで行くのがお勧め」と言われ、このツアーを見つけて参加しました。星空を楽しみに車で向かいましたが、まさかの山火事で途中までしか登れずUターンすることに…。山頂で星空を見ることはできませんでしたが、ガイドさんもいろいろ考えてくれて途中途中で車を止めながら星空を眺めることができました。それにサンセットはきれいにみることができました。めちゃくちゃ寒かったですが、ガイドさんがモコモコの防寒着を貸してくれたので助かりました！次回は山頂で見られますように…

This was my second jump, but it was my friend's first experience. They were nervous the whole time, and their face was tense, but after actually jumping, they were all smiles and said, "I'm glad I did it! I think I'm hooked!!"
I regret not being able to see the person in the wingsuit jump from the same plane, as I missed that part due to the order of jumps.
Regarding photos and videos, it's definitely better to have a photographer jump with you! I chose a GoPro, but since the instructor's hands are unavailable during the parachute stage, I only got footage up until that point. I felt disappointed thinking that if there had been an explanation beforehand, I would have definitely opted for a photographer. Also, the explanation was given by an elderly Japanese man, so there were no issues with Japanese language support. However, I was repeatedly told that if I had chosen a plan to jump from a lower altitude, it would be better not to do it at all, that it was meaningless, and that I should definitely jump from a higher place. I felt quite disappointed and stubbornly didn’t change my mind, but in the end, I was told, "It's a waste, but I don't know," as a parting remark. After a long conversation like that, I ended up going to the reception without watching the video I was supposed to see. I can't help but think that if I had been able to watch more videos at that time, I could have reconsidered my choices for photos and videos.
Additionally, it seemed that the data from the GoPro was supposed to be transferred via Airdrop, which I only learned after the jump. There was no explanation about that at the beginning. The Airdrop transfer didn’t go well, and when I checked after leaving the airfield, the data I thought I had received was nowhere to be found; it had disappeared. When I called to inquire, the phone support was very disappointing, and they said they wouldn't know anything unless I came back. I asked if there were any methods other than Airdrop, but the person didn’t know, so I ended up having to go back. Since I had already driven about 30 minutes away, it resulted in a significant loss of time, and I couldn’t go to the beach I had planned to visit. After returning, the attitude of the staff at the reception was also not very good, which was very disappointing considering it was such a great experience overall.
Last time, I jumped in Hawaii, and I felt that the overall support there was better. Skydiving itself is highly recommended, and I can confidently say that you should definitely try it!
私は2回目のジャンプでしたが、友達は初めての挑戦でした。
終始緊張していて、顔もこわばっていましたが、実際飛んだ後はとても笑顔で「やって良かった！ハマりそう！！」と言っていました。
モモンガスーツの人が同じ飛行機にいて、順番的にその方が落ちるところが見れなかったのが心残りでした。
写真やムービーに関しては絶対にカメラマンに飛んでもらった方が正解です！
私はGoproを選びましたが、パラシュートの段階でインストラクターの方の手が使えなくなるのでその前までの映像でした。
事前に説明があれば絶対カメラマンに飛んでもらったのにな…と残念さを感じました。
また、説明は日本人？のおじいさんがしてくれたので日本語の対応は全く問題ありません。
しかし低い高度から飛ぶプランを選んでいたら、それならやらない方がマシ、意味がない、絶対高い所から飛ぶべきと何度も言われました。
なんだか残念でこちらも頑なに変更しなかったのですが、最後は勿体無いけどしらないよと捨て台詞でした。
そんな会話が長くあり実際見るはずのビデオなどは見ずに受付に行く事になりました。
この時にビデオをもっと見れていたら写真ムービーの時の選択を考えられたと思わずにはいられません。
またGoproの場合はデータをAirdropで渡す事になっていたようで飛んだ後に知りました。
その説明も最初にらありませんでした。
Airdropのやり取りが上手く行かず、一度は来たと思ったデータが飛行場を出た後に確認したところどこにもなく消えてしまっていました。
電話で問い合わせたところ、あまりにも残念な電話対応の末に戻ってきてもらわなきゃわからないと。Airdrop以外の方法はないのか聞きましたが、この方にはわからないとの返答だったため結局戻ることに。
30分ほど車で進んでしまっていた為、かなりのタイムロス。予定していたビーチに行くことが出来ませんでした。
戻った後の受付の方の態度もあまり良くなく、とても良い体験だっただけにその辺りがとてもとても残念でした。
前回はスカイダイブ・ハワイで飛びましたが
そちらの方が全体的に対応が良かった印象です。
スカイダイビング自体はとてもオススメで、絶対にやった方が良い！と言い切れます！

There are few activities that small children can do, and this place has a calm atmosphere with fewer people. The staff was kind, and we were able to enjoy it as a family. Even those who don't ride can walk alongside, allowing for photos during the ride. It became a wonderful memory, spending time exclusively as a family rather than in a group like at places such as Kualoa Ranch.
小さな子供ができる数少ないアクティビティで人も少なくゆっくりとした雰囲気でスタッフの方も優しくて家族で楽しむことが出来ました。乗馬しない方も歩いて付き添う事が出来るので乗馬中の写真なども撮ることができます。クアロアランチのように団体で、ではなく家族オンリーの時間を過ごす事ができる素敵な思い出になりました。

I took The Bus to Kualoa Ranch. I had researched it in Japan, but the bus routes had changed, and the bus I intended to take was no longer available, which made me anxious. I figured out that I needed to take The Bus number 60 and managed to get on, but I was worried about whether I would make it on time. The meeting was at 8:30 and the activity started at 9:30, but since the bus was delayed, I ended up arriving after 9. I hurried to the reception, but I was relieved to find that there were no issues and I could participate in the activity. My horse was very capable and calm. Since I have some experience with horseback riding, I wished I could have ridden a slightly more spirited horse. However, it felt wonderful to ride through the great outdoors.
クアロアランチまではThe Busで向かいました。
日本で調べてから行ったのですが、バスのルートが変わっていて乗るつもりだったバスがなくなっててあわてました。
TheBus60番ということが分かり無事に乗って向かいましたが間に合うか心配。
8時半集合の9時半開始とのことだったのですがバスが遅れていることもあり結局9時過ぎになってしまいました。
急いで受付に行ったのですが何の問題もなくアクティビティに参加でき、ほっとしました。

It was absolutely amazing, with no fear at all compared to the airplane or roller coasters, just pure enjoyment. The breathtaking views of the sky, sea, and mountains were also fantastic. My husband, who was more nervous than I was, said it was the most fun he's ever had and is still excited about it. I want to fly again, and I even feel like I want to get my own license.
On the way there, the machine was malfunctioning, and we couldn't see the video explanation, but the instructor was very relaxed, and it was not a problem at all. They conducted thorough safety checks, and I felt reassured knowing they are professionals who fly multiple times a day. The cheerful instructors kept us entertained even before we took off.
旅行の飛行機よりも絶叫コースターよりも恐怖感は全くなく、気持ちよくて最高でした。空と海と山の絶景も最高でいた。
私よりビビッてた主人も、人生で一番楽しいかったと未だ興奮さめやらぬです。

Billy, our guide, was very fun and amazing. He made sure to pay attention to all the participants while mixing in jokes. You can rent a car and go on your own, but the explanations about Hawaii's plants and history made it even more enjoyable. The Manoa Falls were refreshing, but I think one of the best parts of this tour is being able to eat an organic lunch at Kapiolani Park.
ガイドのビリーさんがとても楽しくて最高でした。ジョークを交えながら、すべての参加客に気を使ってくれていました。個人でレンタカーを借りて行くこともできますが、ハワイの植物のことや歴史の事など、説明があったのでより一層楽しめました。マノアの滝も気持ち良かったですが、カピオラニ公園でオーガニックのお弁当を食べれるのも、このツアーの良いところだと思います。

The zipline tour was a great way to spend out and get out of Waikiki. The guides were professional and experienced, making us feel comfortable and at ease. By the end, we wished there were more than 7 ziplines! Highly recommended!
It was my first skydiving experience, and the instructors and cameramen were very friendly, which made me feel at ease. I heard that the Japanese staff are really dedicated to improving the quality of service. I was alone, but they talked to me, and it was fun! It became a lifelong memory. I highly recommend it.
初めてのスカイダイビングでしたが、インストラクターやカメラマンはとてもフレンドリーで安心できました。
日本人スタッフの人がとても尽力してサービスの質をあげているらしい。
一人でしたが、話しかけてくださり、楽しかったです！
一生の思い出になりました。オススメです。

I participated in the 2.5-hour course in the morning. The weather was great, and I had a wonderful time overlooking Maui. Along the way, I encountered wild pigs. My saddle loosened, and I fell off the horse, but that too is a good memory. There were 10 participants in total, including two Japanese families and a foreign mother and daughter, as well as a solo participant.
午前中の2.5Hコースに参加しました。天候にも恵まれて、マウイ島も見下ろしながら楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。途中、野生の豚にも出くわしました。鞍が緩み、落馬してしましましたがそれもいい思い出です。
日本人2家族と外国人の母娘、一人で参加の方あわせて10名参加の回でした。

This tour is fantastic. We enjoyed every minut from start to the end. Beautiful views and the best guide ever.
Thank you so much Pia! We appreciate you taking the time to write a few words of recommendation. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with you too!! Warmest aloha ~ The Holo Holo Hui
I had been vaguely thinking about wanting to try this someday, but about ten years ago, my husband experienced it and said it was really great, so we decided to participate together this time.
In conclusion, I’m really glad we joined!
I have a fear of heights to the point where my legs shake when I climb up a slide or look down from a high floor of a building, but the instructor jumped with us, so I hardly felt any fear! It was a little scary while we were on the plane and when the parachute opened and we were suspended in the air, but the beautiful scenery made the fear fade quite a bit.
I think that experiencing going through the clouds is something you can only do by skydiving, so I recommend it to anyone who is interested! You can easily decline the photos and videos if you don’t want them, but I regret not accepting them, so if you’re unsure, I think it’s a good idea to keep them as a memory.
I want to participate again when I go to Hawaii!
いつかやりたいな〜と漠然と思っていましたが、10年ほど前に夫が経験してとても良かったとのことだったので今回２人で参加しました。
結論、参加して本当に良かったです！
自力で滑り台に登ったりビルの高層階から下を覗き込んだりすると足が震えてしまうくらい高所恐怖症なのですが、インストラクターさんが一緒に飛んでくれるのでほぼ恐怖を感じませんでした！
飛行機に乗ってる間と、パラシュートが開いてから宙吊りになってる間はちょっと怖かったですが…景色の良さでかなり怖さは薄れました。
雲の中を突き抜けるなんてスカイダイビングやらないと経験すること無いと思うので、興味のある方は参加された方がいいと思います！
写真とムービーはいらなければ問題なく断れますがわたしは断ったことを後悔しているので、迷っているなら形として思い出に残してもいいと思います。
ハワイに行ったらまた参加したいです！
