All Reviews for Outdoor Adventures

Well-trained horses make it enjoyable for beginners to ride.
You can enjoy breathtaking views overlooking the sea on a course that lasts about an hour.
You can also take photos at the viewpoint.

Bringing cameras and other items is allowed.
I think it's a good idea to prepare a shoulder bag that can be fully zipped up to avoid losing anything while on horseback.

よく訓練された馬で、初心者でも乗馬が楽しめます。
小一時間ほどのコースで、海を見下ろせる絶景を楽しめます。
ビュースポットでは写真も撮ってもらえます。

カメラ等も持ち込みOKです。
馬上で落し物がないよう、全てチャックで閉じられる肩掛け鞄等を用意するといいと思います。

The only available course was in the morning, so I made an effort to wake up early and drove from Waikiki. It was pouring rain around Kualoa Ranch in the morning, and I was worried it might get canceled, but the locals didn't seem to mind at all and proceeded with the check-in process. After confirming how to ride the horses with the Japanese instructions, I quickly got on the horse.

The warm body temperature was comforting, and I was first impressed by the completely different sensation compared to riding something inanimate. The tour was filled with a sense of adventure as we went down paths that were more rugged than I expected. The instructor who accompanied us didn’t just walk ahead; she moved around behind us, actively engaging with everyone in the group.

I made the right choice by signing up for the two-hour course! The view from the high ground of Kualoa Ranch was amazing, the air in the lush forest was refreshing, and everything felt wonderful. If I get the chance to come back to Hawaii, I will definitely repeat this experience.

朝一のコースしか空いておらず、頑張って早起きしてワイキキから車で向かいました。朝クアロアランチ周辺は大雨で、中止になるんじゃないかとヒヤヒヤしましたが、現地の人たちは全く気にせずチェックイン手続きをしてくれました。日本語版の説明で馬の乗り方を確認した後、すぐに馬の背中へ。
温かい体温が心地よくて、無機物に乗る感覚とは全く違う感覚にまず感動。ツアーは思った以上に道なき道を進むアドベンチャー感満載でした。一人付いてくれたインストラクターのおねえさんも、ずっと前を歩くのではなく、後ろに回ったり足繁く動きながらグループ全員に声をかけてくれました。
二時間コースに申し込んで大正解！クアロアランチの高台から眺める最高の景色、しっとりとした森の中の空気、全てが気持ちよかったです。またハワイに来れたら、リピートします。

My family and I have been on several horseback riding tours, and this one was certainly one of the best. For one, the staff were great! They were very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, making us feel like we were in good hands.The horses were extremely sweet and well-trained too. Additionally, the actual ranch where the riding took place was absolutely beautiful! We saw everything from a rare cave, to an amazing view of the ocean, which made for a bunch of great photo opportunities. I would definitely recommend horseback riding at Gunstock Ranch to anyone in Oahu looking for a change of pace from the typical beach scene of Hawaii.

My husband and I had an amazing adventure zip lining (for the first time ever!) kayaking, hiking and swimming on the beautiful island of Kaua'i. Our tour guides, Dan, Flip, and Matteas were incredible. SO fun, supportive, informative, and upbeat and really put Me at ease with the things that were more "scary" for me. They are true professionals with a fun-loving spirit and made me feel safe and secure while laughing a LOT! They also know the history, botany, and many interesting facts and stories about the island, so we learned a lot. Now I know what leaf to use As a natural insect repellant! I highly recommend this adventure to anyone who wants to get out and truly experience Kaua'i up close and personal!

This was my second time, and it was just as enjoyable as the last. The horses were calm, and the staff was friendly. I will definitely use this place again next time.

今回は2回目でしたが、前回同様に楽しかったです。馬も大人しくスタッフも親切でした。
また次回もこちらを利用します。

My first hike in Hawaii was an experience beyond my expectations. When I arrived at the entrance, I received water and snacks and prepared by applying insect repellent. There is also a rental option for waist pouches. There were seven other foreign participants besides me. The guide spoke only in English, so it might be tough if you don't speak any English at all. The jungle itself was easy at first, but in the second half, there were steeper inclines and muddy areas, and I definitely worked up a good sweat. The bananas we ate at the destination were delicious! The tour itself was fantastic, but I had to call after waiting over 30 minutes for the pickup. I connected directly with the guide, who mentioned that they had gone to a different location for some reason. The pickup arrived in about 10 minutes, but waiting in the heat was quite tough. However, I was satisfied with the tour! I highly recommend it.

ハワイで初めてのハイキング、思っていた以上に素晴らしい体験でした。入口前に到着すると、水、スナックを貰い、虫除けを掛けたり準備します。ウエストポーチのレンタルもあります。参加者は私以外に7名の外国人。ガイドももちろん英語オンリー、英語が全く出来ないと辛いかも。ジャングル自体は、最初は楽チンですが、後半思っていたより傾斜があったり、泥濘もあり、しっかり良い汗をかきました。目的地で食べたバナナの美味しかったこと！ツアー自体は最高だったのですが、ピックアップタイム30分過ぎても迎えが来ず、さすがに電話。ガイドに直接繋がり、私への案内と何故か違う場所に行ったとのこと。10分程で迎えが来ましたが、かなり暑い最中に待っていたのでそれが辛かったです。しかし、ツアーは満足です！オススメです。

We were very impressed with the weather, views, horses and trail guides. It is a beautiful venue and a high quality experience which was well worth the expense.

I signed up at Narita Airport with excitement and curiosity! However, this became the best memory of my trip! The instructor was from America and everyone was friendly and engaging, helping to ease my nerves, so I had a great time even before flying! The thrill and excitement were incredible, and the view while flying was amazing! The ocean seen from above was incredibly beautiful and the scenery was wonderful! I highly recommend it!

ノリと好奇心で出発の成田空港で申し込みました！
しかし、この旅行での一番の思い出となりました！インストラクターはアメリカの方で皆ノリ良く楽しく話しかけてくれて緊張をほぐしてくださり、飛ぶ前からすごく楽しめました！
なんといってもスリルとワクワク、飛んでる時の景色は最高！上からみる海は凄く綺麗で素晴らしい景色でした！オススメです！

Amazing experience . Staff was very helpful and really nice.I would definitely do it again

I, who can hardly speak English, participated with my 67-year-old mother, who doesn't understand any English, and my 9-year-old son, along with five other beginners in horseback riding. They showed us a demonstration and explained key points in Japanese. My 9-year-old son was guided by the staff, and we slowly rode through the valley. There were eight participants and two guides, which gave us a sense of privacy, allowing us to enjoy ourselves without any hesitation. Next time, I would like to try riding on the mountain side. Everyone was satisfied. Thank you for providing us with a wonderful experience.

英語が殆ど出来ない私が、全く英語が分からない67才の母と9才の息子を筆頭に乗馬初心者5人を引き連れ参加しました(^o^)
実際に見本を見せてくれ、要所は日本語で説明もあり、9才の息子はガイドさんが手綱を引っ張り、渓谷の中をゆっくり回りました。参加者8名でガイドさんが2名、プライベート感もあり、気兼ねすること無く十分楽しめました。次回は、山側を回ってみたいです(^-^)皆、満足しておりました。素晴らしい体験をさせて頂きありがとうございました。

My husband and I and our 13 year old son all had a fantastic day ziplining. It was our favourite day of our stay in Hawaii, great fun, amazing views, fantastic staff and something we won't forget. Would highly recommend.

I was a bit anxious since I had only done horseback riding when I was little, but the staff were very kind and friendly in teaching me, which was great. In the group with many Japanese people, there were those who could speak Japanese to assist us.

This tour, where you can enjoy beautiful scenery while horseback riding and spend time with cute and gentle horses, is something I would love to join again.

I thought the early start time was a bit sleepy, but it turned out to be a great decision! By the time we were leaving, it was quite crowded. It was my first time in Hawaii, and it became a wonderful memory.

乗馬は小さい頃にしかやってなかったので不安でしたが、スタッフの方々がとても親切に、そしてフレンドリーに教えてくれたので良かったです。日本人の多いグループには日本語もわかる方々が付き添ってくれました。
乗馬をしながら美しい景色をながめて、キュートで優しく馬と過ごせるこのツアーはまた参加したいです。
参加時間が早くてちょっと眠いなぁと思いましたが、早い時間帯で大正解！！
帰るころにはかなり混雑してました。初めてのハワイでしたが、素敵な思い出になりました。

The sunset from the summit was as beautiful as I had hoped. Thanks to the guide's advice, I was able to sit in a prime spot and enjoy the sunset comfortably and leisurely. After that, we moved to a different location for stargazing, which turned out to be another wonderful experience. Through the reflecting telescope, I was able to see Saturn. I was thrilled to see satellites and shooting stars with my own eyes, and I never expected to see the Milky Way so clearly. I also got to see the flames from the Kilauea crater. There were explanations about the constellations, which made it even more enjoyable. Fortunately, I was able to take many interesting photos, making for great memories. I believe this was an experience unique to participating in the tour.

山頂サンセットは期待通りの美しさでした。
ガイドさんのアドバイスで、特等席に座って楽にゆっくりと夕日鑑賞することが出来ました。
その後、場所を移動しての星空観測。これが、また素晴らしい体験となりました。
反射望遠鏡では土星を見せてもらいました。衛星や流れ星は肉眼で見ることが出来るし、天の川もあんなによく見えるものだとは思っていなかったので、うれしかったです。キラウエアの火口の炎も見られました。星座のことなども解説があったので、より楽しめたと思います。
ありがたいことに面白い写真もたくさん撮っていただき良い記念になりました。ツアーに参加したからこその体験が出来たと思います。

Lots of fun! We enjoyed the adventure very much. Our driver to North Shore was wonderful and shared lots of interesting tidbits about the different famous sights (Lost, 50 First Dates, etc.). The only bummer was that our tour guides were very sassy. At times it was hard to tell if they were laughing with us OR at us.

One of the things I wanted to experience before I die was skydiving, and I jumped with my sister. There was no feeling of "falling" like in free fall at all; the wind was so intense that I didn't know how to breathe, which made me panic a bit (I'm glad I asked about it beforehand). The view was unforgettable! If I'm invited to jump again... I will! It was a great experience!

死ぬまでに体験したいこと！のひとつだった「スカイダイビング」姉と2人で飛びました。フリーホールのような「落ちる時のゾワっと感」は全くなく、あまりにすごい風で息の仕方が分からず、焦りましたが（事前に聞いといてよかった）あの景色は忘れられません！
もう一度飛ぼうと誘われたら…飛びます！いい経験でした〜

I didn't expect to catch so many fish. The captain was very cheerful, and the explanations were easy to understand, making the fishing experience enjoyable. The fish we caught were also very delicious and the best!

ここまでたくさん釣れるとは思っていませんでした。キャプテンはとても明るく、
説明もわかりやすくて、たのしく釣りができました。
釣った魚もとても美味しくて最高でした！

I was able to see the best view‼️ The weather was uncertain, but I was really glad to see a beautifully clear sunset.

最高の景色を見ることができました‼️
天気が不安でしたがばっちり綺麗なゆうひをみることができてよかったです。

The ride was beautiful, the horses were teamed up with the appropriate writers. The ladies were very informative about the island, culture, the ranch. My granddaughter and I would totally do this again We loved it!

The stargazing with guides Ishikawa and Big Jin was excellent, with clear and enjoyable explanations. The miso soup with the bento at the Onizuka Center was incredibly delicious, and I apologize that my child asked for seconds twice (^_^;). My younger child was starting to experience a bit of altitude sickness, but since we were taught how to handle it, we were able to see the beautiful sunset, which was truly moving. Thank you very much.

ガイドのIshikawaさんとBigJinさんの星空観測もバッチリでわかりやすく、楽しい解説で良かったです。オニヅカセンターでのお弁当のお味噌汁が最高に美味しくて、すみません子供がおかわりを2回もしてしまいました(^_^;)高山病も下の子が少しなりかけてましたが、対処法を教えてまらってたので、綺麗な夕日も見る事ができて感激です。ありがとうございました。

We participated in a 2.5-hour course as a family of three. Riding over a long distance while galloping on a wide ranch was an experience that is unimaginable in Japan. Getting soaked in a downpour at the end was just part of the charm.

2.5時間コースを家族3人で参加しました。
広い牧場をギャロップを交えながら長い距離を乗れて日本ではありえない経験です。最後に土砂降りでずぶ濡れになったのもご愛嬌です。

Had a great time...our guide "Lucky" made it extra special! Was definately something different than we've ever done before!
Recommend it

I was truly moved to see a number of stars I've never seen before. The owner, Mr. Yamauchi, was wonderful, and it was a very pleasant tour. I completely fell in love with the charm of Maui. I definitely want to participate again.

今まで見た事のない数の星を観れて本当に感動しました
オーナーの山内さんの人柄も申し分なく、とても心地の良いツアーでした
マウイ島の魅力にすっかりはまってしまいました
もう一度是非参加したいです

My first time overseas.
My first time skydiving.

It was truly amazing! I'm so glad to be alive ( ´ ▽ ` )

生まれて初めての海外。
生まれて初めてのスカイダイビング。

ほんっとに最高でした！
生きててよかった( ´ ▽ ` )

This is my second experience. It was thrilling and incredibly refreshing! It's something you can't easily experience in Japan, so you must go when you're in Oahu!

今回で、2回目の体験です。スリル満点で爽快感も抜群！日本ではなかなか体験できないので、オアフに行った際には必ず行くべし！

I had been curious about Keana Farms every time I went to Hawaii. This time, with my husband's enthusiastic "Let's do it!" I made a big decision and booked it on my phone. We tried it as a family of three, and after just a brief explanation from a staff member who spoke a little Japanese, we started right away. There was no time to hesitate, and before we knew it, we were enjoying the experience in the air. We created fun memories filled with amusing episodes, like dropping the camera and needing help from the staff because we couldn't find the red string we were supposed to grab at the finish line. I'm a grandmother who is terrible at sports, usually skips amusement park attractions, has a fear of heights, and doesn't speak English, yet I still had a great time! I would love to do it again if the price were a bit lower! By the way, the camera was returned to the reception. Thank you!

ハワイへ行くたび気になっていたケアナファーム。今回は夫の、やろう！の一言で一大決心し、携帯で予約。娘と3人でトライしました。ちょっとだけ日本語ができるお姉さんの、超簡単な説明を聞いただけですぐにスタートし、躊躇う暇もなく、あれよあれよと言ううちに空中を楽しんでいた私たちです。カメラを落とすとか、ラインのゴールで掴むはずの赤いヒモがわからずスタッフに助けられるとか、面白エピソードつきの楽しい思い出ができました。スポーツまるでダメ、遊園地ののアトラクションもほぼパスの還暦ばあちゃん、しかも高所恐怖症、英語もできない、そんな私でも楽しめました！ もう少し値段が安ければまたやりたい！
ちなみに、カメラは受付に届いていました、•·♥τнänκ чöü♥·•

This year, I wanted to take my daughter to see the sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea and the stargazing experience. Masashi Nature School provided us with warm clothing, hats, and gloves, and the bento and miso soup were delicious, with the cocoa after the meal being very tasty as well. The sunset was beautiful, and the explanation for the stargazing was easy to understand. There was also a service of tea and cookies, which was very comforting in the cold. Last year, when I participated in another tour, they only lent me a jacket, and that was after we arrived at the summit, so I had a cold and experienced altitude sickness. This time, the service was exceptional, and I am very grateful for Matsucchan's lively explanations and photography skills. My daughter was also very satisfied. I was moved by the Milky Way. From now on, I would like to ask Masashi Nature School for their services.

今年は娘を連れてきて、マウナケアケア山頂サンセットと星空観察は是非見せたかったものでした。マサシネイチャースクールさんは、上下防寒着と帽子、手袋まで貸してくださった上、お弁当や味噌汁も美味しく、食後のココアもとても美味しかった。サンセットは綺麗で、星空観察の説明もわかりやすく、紅茶とクッキーのサービスがあり、寒い中あったかいものがとても嬉しかった。昨年他のツアーで参加した時は、防寒着は上だけしか貸してくれず、それも山頂に着いてからだったので、寒くて高山病にかかってしまった経験のある私には、至れり尽くせりのサービスで、松っちゃんのノリのいい説明と写真撮影の技術にとても感謝しています。娘も大満足していました。ミルキーウエイには感動しました。これからは、マサシネイチャースクールにお願いしたいと思います。

We were in Hawaii for our honeymoon and wanted to do something adventurous so we decided to go to Gunstock Ranch for some horseback riding. The booking was really easy and I received a call an hour later with confirmation of my purchase. Shortly after I received an email with the confirmation details and directions to the ranch. The process went really smooth. The route out to the ranch along highway 83 was absolutely spectacular! It goes right along the ocean coast with gorgeous views and the splashing water literally hits your car as you drive by because your so close. The ranch was very nice, easy to get to with a super friendly staff. There are restrooms which were very clean for being outdoors along with sinks to wash your hands afterwards. Plenty of parking.
They take safety precautions when mounting and unmounting the horses. They recommend that you wear a helmet also but you can sign a waiver if you choose not to. The horses are really friendly and very well trained. The trails are absolutely beautiful as you leave the ranch, enter into the mountain side, through forests, up and down hills, and a view of the ocean off in the distance. You get to see the cattle, and the baby calves as you ride. Leanna was our guide and she was very knowledgeable about the ranch, the area, and the horses. I could see her love for them and she was very friendly and made sure everyone in our group was doing good and having a great time. She recommended many things to do on the island and was very helpful answering any questions we had along the way. We had a great time and recommend Gunstock Ranch to anyone who is looking for a great horseback riding experience!

I never thought I would be able to fly, but I made a reservation. In the car on the way, we watched a Japanese safety video. After arriving, there was an explanation in English, followed by a brief posture training before boarding the Cessna. Once on board, I braced myself and waited to jump. The tandem staff tried to ease my nerves with some words, but I was probably looking quite tense. During the free fall, the wind pressure was incredible, making it hard to breathe, and when I watched the video later, it was quite a sight. After the parachute opened, I had the chance to enjoy the view, and since the weather was nice, it felt amazing. I had some anxiety, but it was definitely worth trying.

まさか自分が飛べるとは思いませんでしたが、予約してしまいました。移動の車の中で日本語の注意ビデオを見せられます。着いてからは英語で説明の後、簡単な姿勢の講習でセスナに乗り込みます。乗ってからは覚悟を決めて飛び出すのを待ちます。タンデムのスタッフが緊張を紛らわすように声をかけてくれましたが、だいぶ顔が強張ってたでしょう。フリーフォールの時は凄い風圧で息も苦しく後でビデオを見たらヒドイもんでした。パラシュートが開いてからは景色を見る余裕も出来て、天気が良かった事もあり最高の気分でした。不安もありましたがやってみる価値アリです。

I was a bit anxious about my first horseback riding experience, but I was able to watch a Japanese DVD, which made me feel at ease and enjoy it. The vast grounds were very pleasant. However, since we were outside for an hour and the horses move slowly, the same spots were exposed to UV rays for a long time. Sun protection is essential. I ended up getting a bad sunburn on my shoulders. Ladies, please be careful.

初の乗馬で少し不安もありましたが、日本語のDVDを見せてもらうことができ、安心して楽しむことができました。
広大な敷地でとても気持ちよかったです。
ただ、1時間と外にいる時間が長く馬はゆっくりなので同じ場所に紫外線が当たることになります。日焼け対策は必須です。私は肩がとても焼けてしまいました。女性の方注意してください。

There were three cars running besides the lead car, but the other two were very slow, constantly going and stopping. It's disappointing that I couldn't drive comfortably.

先導車以外で3台走行でしたが他の2台が非常に遅く行っては待ち、行っては待ちの繰り返し。
気持ち良く走れず残念。
