All Reviews for Outdoor Adventures

Great & affordable shuttle to Diamond Head! The shuttle is very clean, comfortable and reliable.We were picked-up on time, the driver gave us instructions, a map and a bottle of water. The great thing about this tour is that you can walk at your own pace. The hike itself is easy, however towards the end there are some stairs. Walking through a lava tube was really cool. During the hike there are many lookout places with beautiful views of Oahu's south shore. You can see Waikiki, the mountains, downtown Honolulu & Koko Head from a distance and taking a lot of pictures. It was a great way to start my day. Thank you Kaimana Tours for such a great service and for taking me to one of Honolulu's top attractions, it's not everyday that you can tell your friends that your hiked am ancient volcano. I love Hawaii =)

The perfect way to spend our day together! We were booked on the Ultimate package that included the Adventure Tower, Zipline, Kings Swing, ATV & rock climbing. This package is perfect for couples as its all about trusting each others judgement and it could get a little competitive too. The adventure tower took a lot of energy out of us as it did require a lot of upper arm workout however it was defiantly worth it. The off road ATV drive was so much fun! You can either take turns to drive or for 20-30 minutes each. Lastly, for the Zipline we did the full 6 line and we had a blast! The staff members definitely take care of you and make sure you're comfortable before doing any of the activities. I would recommend this tour to anyone honestly. Young or old, either way I'm sure everyone will enjoy this full day tour!

I decided to take my entire family on a hike just to experience it and since we did not have a car rental planned, we decided to book a shuttle with Kaimana Tours! I was even more excited that they allowed us to bring my toddler (2 years old) as a lap child as long as we have a baby carrier, free of charge!

We were picked up by van on time directly from our hotel. The driver was very nice and friendly! The hike to the top was not too bad at all, even my girls enjoyed it (ages 8 & 10). Most of us are beginner hikers and the best part, the view of Waikiki was just breathtaking! I would definitely book Kaimana Tours again next time we visit! maybe go to Manoa Falls or Makapuu Point next time!! I will for sure recommend this to family and friends!

First time tubing for my wife & I, which we will never forget. From the cultural background of the plantation to the tunnels, it is truly a honor to experience a adventure like this. Thank you to our tour Maka for all the knowledge!

Tour guide Mana was the best! Enjoyed every second of our tour & will highly recommend it! From the water fall to the beautiful views was really memorable. This was my wife & I first outdoor tour together which made it even amazing.

It's not often that you get to ride a horse leisurely for two hours, so spending time in nature in Hawaii while letting the horse take the lead feels great. My husband was also riding for the first time and seemed a bit nervous at first, but by the end, he said, "Riding a horse is easy" (laughs). I couldn't help but think that it was really the horse being smart and we were just along for the ride... The weather was also pleasantly refreshing, not too hot, and we had a wonderful time.

なかなか２時間もゆったり馬に乗りことはないので、ハワイの自然な中で馬に任せて過ごす時間は気持ちがイイです。
夫は乗馬自体も初めてで最初は緊張していた様子ですが終わった時には「馬に乗るのは簡単」などと…（笑）
それは馬が賢く、ただ私たちが乗せていただいていただけなのに…と思ってしまいました。　天気も暑すぎることもなくさわやかな中でとても楽しかったです

The beach horseback riding and exploring Haleiwa were amazing!

What made the tour even more enjoyable than originally planned was our guide, Hiro!

Thanks to Hiro's thoughtful arrangements, we were taken to the SOAP factory and some great photo spots near Kualoa!

Perhaps it's his Kansai personality, but his tour talk was filled with jokes, making the journey completely entertaining.

When I sign up for another tour with the same company, I definitely want Hiro to be my guide again!

海辺乗馬もハレイワ散策も最高でした(*´∀｀)

でもツアーの元々の予定以上に楽しくしてくれたのは、ガイドのhiroさんでした‼️

hiroさんの粋な計らいによって、SOAP factoryやクワロワ近くのフォトスポットにも連れて行ってくれました！！

関西人の人柄なのか、ジョークを織り混ぜたツアートークで道中飽きることは全く無かったです。

また同社のツアーにエントリーする際は是非ともhiroさんに着いてもらいたいです！！

A family friendly excursion . The guides were awesome! They took such good care of our 84 yr old Mom. She had a personal guide experience
Easy and relaxing. Very interesting to see the tunnels that were hand dug!
I would recommend this!

In the morning, we were able to fully enjoy a leisurely hotel life until our 14:30 pickup. They picked us up right on time, and we made a stop at Whole Foods to choose our lunch, taking a bathroom break at Kula Lodge while gradually acclimatizing to the altitude. During the drive and breaks, we enjoyed detailed guidance and fun conversations with our guide, Yama P. At the stops, he also recommended souvenirs and offered tastings. In fact, everything was incredibly delicious.

At the hotel, despite our worries about the cloudy sky, we found clear weather at the summit of Haleakalā, with a new moon and no wind, creating perfect conditions for stargazing, according to Yama P. After enjoying our lunch and warm tea in the car, we put on the warm clothing and gloves provided, sat in our chairs, and adjusted our eyes to the darkness for a trip into the starry sky! The constellations were beyond imagination. We were captivated by Yama P's flowing lecture on the constellations. It was a fulfilling half-day that flew by in no time.

午前中はゆっくりホテルライフを満喫する事が
可能な14:30、ピックアップでした。
時間ピッタリにピックアップして頂き、途中ホールフーズでのお弁当チョイス、クラロッジでトイレ休憩を挟みながら、ゆっくりと高度順応して行きます。その間の車内や休憩中も山Pの詳しいガイドと楽しいお喋り。立ち寄り場所ではお薦めのお土産や試食なども。実際、メチャうまかった。
ホテルでは心配していた曇り空もハレアカラ頂上では晴天、月齢ゼロ、無風の3拍子が整い、なかなかの天文日和との山Pの弁。
車内でお弁当と温かいお茶を頂いた後、用意して頂いた防寒着と手袋を身に付けチェアに座り眼を暗闇にならしての満天の星空へトリップ！
想像を絶する星座群です。山Pの流れるような星座のレクチャーに聞き惚れます。
あっと言う間の充実した半日でした。

The staff were very kind, and I enjoyed myself from start to finish.
It seems that there are days when cancellations occur due to the weather, but the day we participated was clear, and we quickly got our turn.
I had some fear before jumping out of the plane, but once I did, it was nothing at all, haha.
I was much more captivated by the amazing scenery than by my fear!
If you're hesitating, I definitely think you should experience it.
Thank you for a wonderful time.

スタッフの皆様がとても親切で最初から最後まで楽しめました。
天気に左右されるためキャンセルになる日もあるようですが、私たちが参加した日は快晴ですぐに順番が回ってきました。
飛行機から飛び出す前までは恐怖心もありますが、飛び出してしまえばなんてことはなかったです笑
恐怖心よりもはるかに、景色の素晴らしさに気を取られます！
迷っているなら是非体験するべきだと思いました。
素晴らしい時間をありがとうございました。

I went to Hawaii for the first time for skydiving!
We gathered at 4 AM, and I was sleepy, but once we arrived at the location, I was wide awake.
The tension was brief, and before I knew it, I was in the air. The free fall was a bit hard to breathe and felt intense (laughs), but the cameraman came right in front of me and made me laugh, which made me feel very reassured.
Once the parachute opened, I enjoyed the magnificent scenery of Hawaii while spinning around and chatting with the instructor.
I was fortunate to have a great partner and a wonderful cameraman, making it a truly fantastic experience.
It’s a bit pricey, but I think it’s worth asking for either a camera or video!

スカイダイビング目的で初ハワイへ！
朝4時集合で眠かったけど、現地に着くと目も覚める。
緊張は一瞬、気づけば空中。フリーフォールは息ができなくて苦しかったりもしたけど（笑）、カメラマンさんが目の前まできてくれて笑わせてくれるから、とても安心できました。
パラシュートが開いてからは、雄大なハワイの景色を満喫しつつ、クルクル回ってくれたり話しかけてくれたり。
パートナーの方にもカメラマンさんにも恵まれ、とても素敵な時間になりました。
ちょっと高いけど、カメラかビデオどちらかだけでもお願いした方が良いと思います！

My mother and I participated in a two-hour horseback riding course. My 71-year-old mother was extremely nervous at first, but by the middle of the ride, she was finally able to enjoy the scenery. My horse was at the back, eating grass and lagging behind, which led to some scary moments. At one point, it charged towards a spiky plant like a cactus while trying to eat grass, and my hands ended up all scratched. I recommend wearing long sleeves and long pants.

I regretted not having a digital camera that could be used with one hand, as it was difficult to take good photos with my phone. This is an experience you can't have in Japan, so definitely give it a try!

親娘2人で乗馬2時間コースに参加しました。71歳の母は、最初、緊張しまくりでしたが、中盤になったらやっと景色を楽しめるようになりました。私の馬は最後尾で、草食べては遅れをとって、駆け足になる馬で怖い場面もあり、また草を食べに行く時に、サボテンのような棘のある植物に突進していき、手が傷だらけになりました。長袖、長ズボンをおススメします。
写真は携帯では、なかなかうまく撮れないので、片手で撮れるデジカメの方が良かったと後悔しました。日本では出来ない経験なので、是非やってみてください。

I asked a friend who has participated in Yamapi's Haleakalā sunset and stargazing tour about why they go so often, and they said it gives them inspiration and courage every time. I was encouraged to join for the first time. Yamapi, whom I only knew from "Hawa Koi," was wonderful, but meeting him in person revealed that he is truly a charming person, and I understood why one would want to join his tours again and again. We were blessed with good weather, and the sunset over the sea of clouds and the starry sky afterward were etched in my eyes and heart thanks to Yamapi's explanations. I am grateful to have participated in this tour and to have met Yamapi.

やまぴーさんのハレアカラS unset&stargajingツアーに10回くらい参加している友人に、何故そんなに度々？って聞くと毎回感動と勇気をもらえるとの事でした。是非と勧められて初めて参加させていただきました。「ハワ恋」で一方的に知っていたやまぴーさんも素敵でしたが、お会いすると、本当に魅力溢れる方でお話も楽しく2度、3度……やまぴーさんのツアーに参加したくなるのが分かりました。天候にも恵まれ雲海に沈む夕陽もその後の満天の星もやまぴーさんの解説で目と心に焼き付けてきました。
このツアーに参加できやまぴーさんにお会い出来たこと感謝です。

We've been ziplining at most of the lines on Maui. This is one of the top two. Great money for the price. Views were great. I'd go back.

The horse was very calm and took its time eating grass... I went horseback riding for the first time and it was so much fun. I thought the two-hour course would be long, but it wasn't long at all! It was just right since my hips started to hurt a bit (laughs). The hamburger was really delicious, so I think you should definitely try it when you go!

Since the shuttle service was fully booked, I took the bus, but there was a bus stop right in front of Kualoa Ranch, and it was easy to get there with just one bus from Ala Moana! My inner thighs, which I don't usually use, are sore, but I want to go again!

馬はとても大人しくマイペースでよく草を食べてました...初めて乗馬をしましたがとても楽しかったです。2時間のコースは長いかと思いましたが全然長くないです！股関節も痛くなってくるので丁度良いです（笑）ハンバーガーがとても美味しかったので行ったら是非食べた方が良いと思います♪
送迎付きがいっぱいだったためバスに乗って行きましたがクアロアランチ の目の前にバス停があり、アラモアナから1本で簡単に行けました！
普段使わない内腿が筋肉痛になりましたが、また行きたいです！

I learned a lot of things I didn't know thanks to our guide, Jin's, knowledgeable explanations. The high-altitude clouds and the brightness of the moon made it difficult to see the stars, but I felt that if I climbed a mountain in Japan, I would be able to see a more starry sky. However, we did get to take commemorative photos with the red glow of the lava from Kilauea, which is 100 km away, falling into the sea in the background. The impact is different with a professional camera.

ガイドの仁さんの博学な説明で、知らなかったことを沢山学びました。高層雲がかかったのと、月が明るすぎて星の見え方は今ひとつ、日本でも山に登ればもっと満天の星空が見えるという感じでした。でも、100kmも離れたキラウエアの熔岩が海に落ちる所が赤く光っているのをバックに記念撮影して頂きました。プロのカメラだと迫力が違いますね。

What a fun experience. Even if you have ziplined before, you will enjoy this tour where you get to fly like Superman on Hawaii's longest zip line. The tour guides also make it a fun day, and are very safety conscious.
Try it, you'll like it!

My daughter participated alone. It was her first time, and she seemed a bit anxious about the height, but everything was amazing, and she returned to the hotel feeling thrilled. It seems it was such a good tour that she wants to fly again and again.

娘が一人で参加しました。初めてのことで高さの不安があったみたいですが、すべてが最高で、ホテルにルンルンで帰ってきました。何度でも飛びたいというほど気分の良いツアーだった様です。

The sunset at Mauna Kea was, of course, beautiful, but the guide's stories were interesting and fantastic. I was able to enjoy a perfect stargazing experience without any worries about altitude sickness, and I participated in great health. Thank you very much.

マウナケアのサンセットはもちろんですが、ガイドさんの話が面白く最高。　満点の星空観測もでき高山病の不安もなく絶好調な体調で参加できました。有難うございました。

My friend who was supposed to go with me said it was scary, so I participated alone. I'm really glad I did! The only scary moment was just a second or two before jumping. The excitement and emotion of falling from the plane and passing through the clouds during free fall were incredible. The view while ascending in the plane was also breathtaking.

I only asked for photos with a GoPro, and that was the right choice. The photos turned out great, and they keep my spirits high even after returning home.

However, there was a mix-up with the shuttle bus on the way back, and I panicked when I was stopped from getting on. Fortunately, someone who was participating with me spoke in English, so I was able to get on safely, but I shudder to think what would have happened if I had been alone.

It turned out to be the best experience!

一緒に行く友達は怖いと言うので独りで参加しました。
やっぱり独りでも参加して良かったです！
怖いのは飛ぶ1,2秒前だけでした。
自分が飛行機から落ちている事や、雲を通る瞬間、あのフリーホールの間興奮やら感動やらですごいです。
飛行機で上がって行く間もすっごく綺麗な景色に興奮します。
GoProで写真だけ頼んだのですが、正解でした。
とっても良い写真で帰ってからもテンション上がります。

ただ、帰りの送迎バスの手違いか、バスに乗ろうとしたら止められた時は焦りました。
たまたま一緒に参加していた方が英語で話してくれて無事乗れましたが独りだったらどうなっていた事やら、冷っとしました。

最高の体験になりました！

About 10 years ago, I experienced this and couldn't forget the excitement from that time, so this is my second participation. There are few local staff who speak Japanese, but it was an amazing experience.

約10年前にも体験しその時の興奮が忘れられず2回目の参加になります。
現地スタッフに日本語が喋れる方が少ないですが最高の体験になりました。

The pineapple garden at Dole was a bit rushed due to time constraints, but I was satisfied with the sightseeing! There were height and weight restrictions for horseback riding, so I chose this course, but in reality, they didn't check my weight or height closely, so I thought I should have gone for the mountain course instead. The weight limit was stated as 102 kilograms, but the trainer looked like he was over 120 kilograms, haha. My child's height was also not enough, but it was okay!

I can't speak English, but since a Japanese guide explained things along the way, there were no issues!

If I go again, I would definitely choose a longer horseback riding experience on a course with better scenery!

Thank you!

ドールのパイナップル園とか、何せ時間が少しずつだったので少し慌ただしかったが、観光面では満足でした！
乗馬の身長体重規制があったので、このコースを選びましたが、実際には体重も身長も細かく言われなかったので山のコースにすれば良かった〜( ´Д`)y━･~~と思いました。
体重も102キロ迄とありましたが、実際トレーナーの方は120キロオーバーに見えました笑
子供の身長も全然足りませんでしたがオーケーでした！

英語も喋れませんが、予め、日本のガイドの方が道中で説明してくれたので問題ありませんでした！

次回行くことがあるなら、是非もっと長く乗馬が出来て、景色の良いコースにします！

ありがとうございました！

Last year, I participated in this tour for the first time and was so moved that I decided to join again this year as a key event in Maui! As a result, there were many clouds this time, so we couldn't see a sky full of stars, but just listening to Yamapi's explanations makes this tour worth it. Rather, it feels like a waste not to visit Haleakalā when coming to Maui! I plan to visit Maui again to experience the starry sky and the atmosphere of Haleakalā, and to meet Yamapi. Thank you very much!

去年、初めてこのツアーに参加させて頂いて
信じられないくらいに感動したので今年もマウイの主軸イベントとして
参加！
結果、今回は雲が多く満天の星というわけにはいきませんでしたが
ヤマピーさんの解説を聞いているだけでこのツアーには参加する価値があります。というよりマウイに来てハレアカラに行かないなんてことは勿体ない気がします！
また星空とハレアカラの空気、ヤマピーさんに会いにマウイを訪れるつもりです。有難うございました！

I think it's something you should experience at least once in your life. Surprisingly, I was able to enjoy it without feeling scared! When you reach around 4,300 meters, all you can see below is the sea and clouds, which makes any fear disappear. Even if you're feeling tense, the kind instructor helps you relax! At the moment of jumping, the instructor skillfully guides you out of the plane. For about a minute, you're in free fall; during this time, I found it a bit hard to breathe and felt slightly uncomfortable, but after the parachute opens, you can enjoy a walk through the clouds and the sky. If you leave it to the instructor, you can come down safely without worry.

人生で1度は体験するべきかなと思います。想像していたより、怖いと感じずに楽しめました！4300メートル付近まで行くと下を見ても海と雲しかないので、怖さも吹き飛びますし、緊張していても優しいインストラクターがリラックスさせてくれます！飛ぶ瞬間はインストラクターが上手く飛んでくれるので、自然と飛行機の外に出て行けます！約1分間はフリーホール状態、この時が息が上手く出来ず若干苦しいと感じましたが、パラシュートを開いてからは雲の中や空の散歩を楽しめます。インストラクターに任せていれば安心して下りて来られます。

It was my first horseback riding experience in Hawaii. I thought the sun would be strong, so I participated wearing sunglasses and long sleeves. There were few participants in the 2-hour course, which made it very enjoyable. Unfortunately, I could only take photos while the horse was walking, so I missed the chance to take pictures at the sign in the filming location of Jurassic Park. I participated with my sister and niece, so it felt like we were taking pictures of each other from the front and back. It was helpful that there was a bag on the horse that could hold a plastic bottle and my phone. I would like to participate again.

ハワイでははじめての乗馬体験でした。
日差しが強いかと思い、サングラスと長袖で参加しました。
2時間コースの参加者が少なく、とても楽しく出来ました。
写真は馬が歩きながらのみでしたので、せっかくのジュラシックパークの映画ロケ地での看板がある所で写真が撮れず残念でした。
お姉ちゃんと、姪っ子との参加でしたので、前からと後ろからの写真の撮り合いという感じでした。
馬にペットボトルと携帯が入る位の袋がついており助かりました。
また参加したいと思います。

I was a bit anxious with just a simple explanation, but the horses were very well trained, and I was able to enjoy the experience. The scenery was also beautiful, and I think I was able to see a lot of Kualoa Ranch through this one experience. The guide was very kind, taking photos during the experience and also taking pictures for me from great spots.

簡単な説明のみで、不安でしたが馬がとても良く調教されており楽しんで体験することができました。
景色もとても良く、この体験一つでクアロアランチを大体みて回れたと思います。
ガイドさんもとても優しく、体験中写真を撮ってくれたり、いい場所からの写真を代わりに撮ってくれたりしてとても優しかったです。

This is my second time experiencing horseback riding, having first tried it in Haleiwa. Last time, I rode for an hour in the mountains, but this time at Kualoa, the ride was longer and I was excited because it’s a filming location for Jurassic Park. It was quite difficult to take photos while riding, and I was disappointed that I couldn't capture them as I had hoped.

ハレイワではじめて乗馬を体験し、今回で二度目になります。前回は一時間で山の中の乗馬でしたがクアロアでの乗馬は時間も長くジュラシックパークのロケ地ということもあって期待していました。馬に乗りながら写真を撮ることはなかなか難しく、思うようには撮れなかったのが残念でした。

Good time had by all. Fun Supportive and Helpful Crew

It was the best! It was my second time in life! The bus driver was fun, and you definitely should try skydiving!

最高でした！
人生2度目！バスの運転手も楽しかったし、スカイダイビングは絶対やったほうがいいですー！

We made an internet reservation on-site with three guys who got along well. It was all of our first time horseback riding, but we had an incredibly fun time unique to Hawaii. Everything from check-in to the explanations was in English. If that's okay with you, there are no problems at all. I highly recommend it.

気の合うメンズ3人で現地インターネット予約。3人とも初めての乗馬でしたが、ハワイならではのサイコーに楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。受付から説明、何もかも英語オンリーです。その点オッケーならば全く問題ナシ。おすすめです。
