All Reviews for Outdoor Adventures

We participated as a couple. It was just before a Japanese interpreter started working, but I heard they will be available here, so I think it will be fine for those who don't understand English if they request an interpreter. The participants ranged from children to adults. There were even families from the mainland U.S. participating together across three generations (from grandparents to grandchildren), so I believe people of all ages can enjoy it.

The first zip line was a bit scary because it was my first time and it was high, but after that, I had a lot of fun. I'm not very good with heights, but I managed. Due to the season, it had been rainy and chilly, making ocean activities impossible, but trying mountain activities during that time was very enjoyable.

夫婦二人で参加しました。
ちょうど、日本人の通訳さんが働き始める前の体験中でした。これからこちらで働くそうなので、英語が分からない人でも通訳さんをお願いすれば大丈夫になると思います。
参加者は子供から大人までいろいろ。
アメリカ本土から親子3世代（おじいちゃん、おばあちゃんから孫まで）で、そろって参加していた方もいたので、年齢問わず楽しめると思います。
最初のジップが、初めてで慣れないうえに高さがあってちょっと怖かったですが、後は楽しめました。
私は高いところがそんなに得意ではないですが、大丈夫でした。
時期的に雨が降って肌寒い日が続いていて、海のレジャーは全然ダメだったのですが、そんなときの山のレジャーとしてやってみたら、とても楽しかったです。

I had given up on reaching the summit because I heard beforehand that it was inaccessible due to snow, but on the day of the tour, I received the wonderful news that "it has become possible to climb since yesterday!" My excitement shot up instantly. When I got there, the breathtaking view was absolutely amazing! The starry sky and the explanations were fantastic too! The kindness and gentle care from our guide Jin and Con-chan from car number two made the tour very soothing overall. Thank you so much. I have fallen in love with the Big Island!

前情報で山頂へは雪で行けないと聞いていたのであきらめていましたが、
当日「昨日から登れるようになりました」とうれしい知らせ！
一気にテンションがＵＰしました。
行ってみたら、それはそれは素晴らしい絶景！！
星空も解説も素晴らしい！
ガイドのジンさんと2号車のコンちゃんさんのお心遣いも柔らかく優しいもので
それも含めてとても癒されるツアーでした。
本当にありがとうございました。
ハワイ島が大好きになりました。

While waiting, you can watch the other horses and the staff practicing on the premises, so you won't get bored. Once you choose your horse and learn some basic reins handling, you start. There are always multiple guides with you, so if you encounter any issues along the way, they will help you out. If you get paired with a horse that likes to graze, you'll have to put in some effort, but thanks to the generally well-trained horses, we had a lot of fun navigating the ups and downs of the trail.

待っている間は敷地内で他の馬たちや従業員の練習の様子なんかを見ていられるので飽きません。馬が決まって、簡単な手綱の扱い方を聞いてスタート。常に複数のガイドが一緒なので、途中で困っても対処してくれます。道草を食う相棒に当たると頑張らないとなりませんが、基本的によく訓練された馬たちのおかげで、道のアップダウンもそこそこあってワーワーキャーキャー楽しめました。

What is awesome about Gunstock Ranch is that it is in a very secluded area. The trail is very peaceful and we rode through grassy clearings and lots of cattle. It was a very small and intimate group (myself, my friend and the instructor), which I really liked because on other trails I've been on it involved following a long trail of people on their horses. This time I felt more in control of my horse. The horses are very well trained and know how to follow each other. I've tried to get mine to trot, but since I was on a beginner's trail it wouldn't allow me to do it. Also, the instructor, Garrett (hopefully I spelled his name correctly), was very pleasant and helpful throughout the entire trail.

The BEST experience I've had yet. Mom loved it and I totally caught the bug! I'll be back again FOR SURE.

We took the 2 hour ATV your. Even though it was raining. The mud puddles made it so fun. It was also great to see all the movie shot in the valley.

I was really looking forward to the main horseback riding during this trip. I was worried because it rained in the first half of the day, but it was great that it cleared up for the horseback riding. The horses were very cute, and I was anxious about whether I could ride them properly, but there was nothing to worry about. I would love to go horseback riding again when I come to Hawaii.

今回の旅行のメインの乗馬、とても楽しみにしていました。当日は雨が前半降っていて心配しましたが、乗馬の時には晴れて本当に良かったです。お馬さんはとても可愛くて ちゃんと乗れるのか不安でしたが何も心配いりませんでした。また、ハワイに来たら乗馬したいです。

So impressed with the efficiency of this place. I've jumped at a few locations and by far this was the best run. Had a great jump with Brandon, I'd been a few times so we did some flips and he let me pull the cord. Highly recommend, beautiful views of Oahu.

It was a nice ride, beautiful scenery. The barbecue afterwards was delicious. :)

It was my first time on a horse for decades and thanks to the wonderful guides and calm horses, i never felt safer. The scenery is fabulous and the guides have a huge and amazing knowledge of the valley, its inhabitants whether human or animal, as well as the plentiful edible plant life. They really made the trek perfect. Highly recommend whether a first timer or an experienced rider, you will not regret it.

I am a 45-year-old man. Two years ago, I participated in a 90-minute scenic course here, but this time I brought my 1st-grade daughter and 5th-grade son, and we participated in a 60-minute scenic course as a family of four. We rented a car early in the morning and it took about an hour from our hotel in Waikiki. We encountered rain in December, but by the time we arrived at the ranch, the weather cleared beautifully.

A young woman at the reception became our contact person. Almost everything except for the contract was in English, but I think it’s manageable even if you don’t understand everything. A year ago, when my child rode a small horse in Cairns, a Japanese person on a working holiday helped pull the reins, but at Gunstock, even my 1st grader rode a proper horse by themselves. The guide led the way, followed by the two children and then the couple. The kids were quite nervous at first, but after about 15 minutes, they learned to kick the horse's belly, which made the horse move, and they looked happy.

The distance differs between the 90-minute and 60-minute rides, but I think the height of the hills we climbed was quite different. Since we had elementary school children with us, the 60 minutes was sufficient, and we could see the beautiful North Shore sea. Along the way, we saw horses and cows grazing. Walking with the horses was pleasant, and the scenery was lovely, creating a wonderful feeling. While riding, the guide shared various information about the ranch, but with my language skills, I only understood about half of it. Still, it was a good experience for our family. The guide was kind and accommodating to us. (By the way, this was my second time, and the staff were all young both times.)

If we can go again, I would like to do the 90-minute ride with my family. We have also ridden at another ranch on Oahu, but we prefer Gunstock. The reception is just a small hut, giving it a rustic and pastoral atmosphere like a Western movie ranch. There are turkeys, goats, and dogs wandering around, and as you go further in, there are many horses. All of them are large and impressive, exuding both gentleness and dignity. I’ve been there twice, and the staff were all young both times. It really feels like America.

４５歳男性です。２年前にもここで９０分のシーニックコースに参加しましたが、今回は小１女子と小５男子の子供を連れて、親子４人で６０分シーニックコースに参加しました。朝１でレンタカーを借り、ワイキキのホテルから１時間くらいでしょうか、１２月の雨に降られましたが、牧場に着くと見事に晴れ上がりました。
受付の若い女性がそのまま我が家の担当になりました。契約書以外はほぼ１００％英語ですが、わからなくてもなんとかなると思います。１年前にケアンズで乗馬した時の子供の馬はかなり小型で、ワーホリの日本人が手綱を引っ張ってくれましたが、ガンストックでは小１でも本格的な馬に一人で乗ります。ガイドさんが先頭で、その後に子供二人、夫婦二人が続きました。子供は最初かなりビビってましたが、１５分もするとお腹をキックすることにを覚え、それで馬が動いてくれるので、嬉しそうでした。９０分と６０分では距離も違いますが、登る丘の高さがかなり違ったと思います。小学生連れなので、それでも十分で、ノースショアの海が綺麗に見えますし、途中に、馬や牛が放牧されています。馬と散歩するのは、景色も良く、何ともいい気分です。乗馬しながら、牧場のことなど、ガイドさんが色々と教えてくれましたが、私の語学力では半分くらいしかわからず、でも、それも我が家にとっては良い経験です。ガイドさんもこんな我が家に優しく付き合ってくれました。（ちなみに、２回目ですが、いずれもスタッフは若い方ばかりでした。）もしまた行けるなら９０分に家族で行きたいですね。
オアフでは、他の某牧場でも乗馬したことがありますが、私達はガンストックが好きです。受付といっても小屋が一つあるだけで、西部劇の牧場のような、素朴で牧歌的な雰囲気です。あたりには、七面鳥やヤギ、犬が歩き回っていて、奥に進むと馬がたくさんいます。どれも立派な大きな馬で優しくも威厳を感じますね。２回行きましたが、いずれもスタッフは若い方ばかりでした。アメリカって感じです。

This was amazing & worth every penny. The hike was challenging because of the slippery, muddy, sloping terrain, but everybody in the group managed it without a problem. We had a blast. The staff were super!

This was on my sixty-seven year old father's bucket list and it made his trip to Hawaii. I highly recommend, even for nervous fliers. Quite serene actually. Thank you Mr. Bill and pilot J.J. for a wonderful trip!

I wanted to go down to Waipi'o Valley and was looking for a tour. I was a bit anxious since I had never been horseback riding before, but I decided to sign up for the tour thinking there might be other Japanese participants. A tall woman came to pick me up at the meeting point as the guide, and after checking in, we headed to the stables in a large vehicle with a 4x4 and horses painted on it. However, she told me that she didn't understand Japanese. I felt uneasy but she reassured me that she could say "danger!" so I should listen carefully. The horseback riding instructions were given in English and gestures, and there were Japanese warning signs and simple explanations posted. Even if you don't understand English, the horses are well-trained, so it's manageable, but if you want to understand the guide's explanations along the way, I think an intermediate level of English is necessary. The horses lined up on their own and walked easily, and the reins only required simple movements. We progressed through the river, crossed it, and even strayed off the path to eat grass, but the smart horses quickly returned to the line. We were able to slowly enjoy the taro fields and waterfalls at the bottom of the valley, and the hour and a half passed in no time. If it's a morning tour, you can head out in the afternoon, which is enjoyable. We were blessed with good weather, and I'm glad I participated. I didn't have time to take photos, but the guide took some for us along the way. I would love to participate again!

ワイピオ渓谷の下まで行ってみたくて、ツアーを探していました。乗馬もしたことがなかったので不安でしたが、日本人で参加している方がいるのならと思いツアーを申し込みました。背の高い女性がガイドで集合場所まで迎えに来てくれて、チェックイン後に4×4と馬が描かれた大きな車で厩舎まで向かいましたが、そのときに日本語は分からないからと言われました。不安になりましたが「あぶない！」だけは言えるから、よく聞いてねと。乗馬の説明は英語とジェスチャーで、日本語の注意書きや簡単な説明文は貼り出されていました。英語が分からなくても馬がよく調教されているので大丈夫ですが、ガイドさんの途中での説明も聞き取りたいのであれば中級以上の英語力が必要かとおもいます。馬は一列に勝手に並んでくれて、歩いてくれますし手綱も簡単な動きだけでした。川の中をどんどん進んだり、川を渡ったり、草を食べに道から外れたこともありましたが、すぐに列に戻ってくれる賢い馬たちでした。渓谷の下のタロイモの畑や滝もゆっくり観られて、1時間半はあっというまに過ぎました。午前のツアーであれば、午後から出かけられるので楽しめますね。天気にも恵まれ、参加してよかったです。写真を写す余裕がなかったのですが、途中でガイドさんが写してくれました。また、参加したいです！

I was able to fully enjoy the skies of Hawaii!! Before I could even think about being scared, I fell from the helicopter, so I wasn't scared at all, haha. The instructor was friendly, and I was very satisfied!

ハワイの空を堪能できました！！
怖いとか思う前にヘリコプターから落ちるので、怖さはまったくなかったです笑
インストラクターの人ともフレンドリーで、大満足です！

The team was funny but pro at the same time. My Tandem master had a different type of humor, but all in all definitely from start to end, it was a very positive experience

I had a great time. I experienced skydiving in Guam as well, but Hawaii was definitely more beautiful!

とても楽しかったです。
スカイダイビングはグアムでも経験しましたが、断然ハワイのほうが綺麗でした！

I think this tour to Mauna Kea is the only one where you can easily go to a place higher than Mount Fuji, which is the tallest in Japan!

日本一高い富士山よりも高いところに、こんなにあっさり行けるのはマウナケアのこのツアーだけだと思います！

While waiting for the pickup in the hotel lobby, I heard the disappointing news that due to strong winds, we couldn't go to the summit and it was uncertain if we could find a place to see the starry sky. Since we could get a full refund if we canceled now and it was possible to change the tour, we decided as a family to switch to a full island tour the next day. Then, the next morning, it was pouring rain! It really rained a lot. As we waited with low spirits, our guide Matsuzaki arrived with incredibly high energy! I thought the island would only have lava, but it turned out to be a lush green island. Waipi'o Valley was breathtaking, and Akaka Falls was impressive, but the highlight was definitely the Kilauea volcano's crater! It was lucky to see the bright red lava rising so high. The lava dome tunnel provided an adventurous experience, and even though it rained the whole time, they provided a large umbrella and towels, making sure we stayed as dry as possible. We were able to take many photos and truly enjoyed the wonderful aspects of the Big Island. Everyone in the family was very satisfied with the tour. We even saw sea turtles, and we wrapped up the day with a beautiful rainbow and sunset. Thank you, Matsuzaki, for your hard work during the long drive!

ホテルロビーでピックアップを待っていると、強風のため山頂へはいけず、星空も見える場所を探すけれど、どうなるかわからないという残念なお話。今中止すれば全額返金、ツアー変更も可能という事なので家族会議の結果、翌日の島一周に変えさせて頂きました。そして翌朝、大雨！まあよく降ること。テンション低めで待っていると、テンションすごーく高めのガイドマツザキさん登場！溶岩しかないのかと思っていたら、実は緑豊かな島で、ワイピオ渓谷は絶景、アカカ滝も迫力満点でしたが、なんといってもキラウエア火山の噴火口！真っ赤な溶岩がここまで上昇しているのはラッキーなんですって。溶岩ドームトンネルもアドベンチャー気分が味わえ、ずっと雨でしたが、大きな傘とタオルを用意して下さり、なるべく濡れないよう気配りして頂き、
写真もたくさん撮れましたし、ハワイ島の良いところがたくさん味わえた家族全員大満足なツアーでした。ウミガメにも会えたし、最後はきれいな虹と夕日で締めくくり。マツザキさん、長時間のドライブ本当にお疲れ様でした。そしてありがとうございました！

So high!!!! I want to do it again!

高！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！またやりたいです！

It was absolutely amazing! On the way to Pacific Skydiving, there was heavy rain, but it cleared up beautifully, and I was so impressed by my luck!

When we ascended to 4,000 meters in the Cessna, I was nervous, but the instructor helped ease my tension. When it was time to jump, the instructor jumped without giving me a moment to hesitate, which actually made it less scary.

I was so moved that I could hardly express it; it was difficult to open my eyes or breathe, but I desperately tried to keep my eyes open to take in the incredible scenery.

The view was truly beautiful and magnificent, and I felt so touched by it. I really think everyone should try skydiving at least once in their lifetime! I want to do it again!!

とにかく、最高でした！パシフィックスカイダイビングに向かう途中では大雨だったのに、綺麗に晴れて運の良さに感動しました！
セスナに乗って高度4000mまで上がるとき、緊張していたけれどインストラクターの方が緊張をほぐしてくれました。飛び降りる時は、躊躇う隙もなくインストラクターが飛び降りてくれたので逆に怖くなかったです。
言葉に表せないくらい感動して、目を開けるのも息をするのも苦しかったけれど、せっかくの景色を目に焼き付けようと必死に目を開けました。
本当に綺麗で壮大な景色にとても感動しました。
一生に一度はスカイダイビングするべきだと思いました！またやりたいです！！

If you like to mountain bikes and amazing scenery with a great guide, you must do this tour.
My girlfriend and I did it. At first she thought it was going to be challenging but anyone with a good enough physical condition can do this tour. Bring your camera! some ice water, (water is provided but bring your own ice water if you can,) You need all the basics, you're going to be outdoors for a long period of time so you need sunblock, some mosquito repellent, a book-bag, sunglasses, ice water, some extra snacks for yourself and an extra battery for your camera or a portable charger for your phone. Do it!

We had a very good time on this tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. More mud than expected but very enjoyable just the same.

It was a bit raining in the morning but the Monoa Falls was very very nice.
Our guide explained us very kind and neatly so we understood well.
You must need a shoe to go with.( Some people went there by Beach sandals and slipping over the mud)

I recommend participating if you can enjoy a relaxed stay in Maui!
It seems that a permit is required to reach the summit, making it a valuable experience that you can't do on your own.
As everyone has mentioned, the tour included a sunset, mountains, clouds, and stars, all allowing you to feel the beauty of nature.

マウイでゆとりある滞在ができるなら参加をお勧め！
山頂までは許可証が必要のようで、自力ではいけない貴重な体験ができます。
内容はみなさんが書かれている通りで、サンセット、山、雲、星すべてが大自然を感じられるツアーでした。

We participated as a family of four!
We were picked up from the hotel at 5 AM, and although we were worried about the strong winds until the day before, we were blessed with good weather and headed to the site while watching an explanation video in the van.
We booked a GoPro and a photographer for a 3:1 shoot, and the photographer did an excellent job capturing the moment we jumped out of the Cessna and the plane flying away. The GoPro also took impressive close-up shots.
We were amazed by the breathtaking views of the ocean and mountains in Hawaii!
It was a very satisfying skydiving experience!
We arrived back at the hotel around 10 AM, and since it was Black Friday, we were able to go shopping right away. I highly recommend Hawaii!

家族4人で参加しました！
朝5時にホテルからピックアップをしてもらい、
前日まで風が強くて心配していましたが、天気にも恵まれてワゴン車で説明のビデオを見ながら現地へ。
ゴープロとカメラマンの撮影と3:1での撮影を申し込み、
さすがカメラマンの撮影はセスナから飛び降りる瞬間や飛行機が離れていく姿を的確に撮影してくれました。又ゴープロは近くで迫力ある写真を撮影していただきました。
ハワイの海と山との絶景すぎる絶景に感動しました！
大満足のスカイダイビングでした！
ホテルに10時ごろ到着しました、この日はブラックフライデーのバーゲンで買い物にも早々いけました。ハワイの空おすすめします！

This year, before going to North after the usual marathon, we had our first experience due to my wife's request. It was a fun hour with polite service for us who don't understand English. My daughter seemed satisfied, but I think my butt was a bit sore!

いつものマラソン後に今年はノースに行く前に、女房の希望により初体験。英語が分からない私たちに丁寧に楽しい１時間でした。娘も満足したようですが私はお尻が痛かったかな～！

I have always wanted to try skydiving, and during our honeymoon in Hawaii, my husband, who had experienced it before, and I participated in our first skydiving adventure.

On the shuttle bus, we ended up with a group of foreigners, and when we arrived at the site, the instructions were given separately from the Japanese group, which made it hard to understand as everything was in English. I felt anxious and dissatisfied until we jumped.

However, the skydiving experience was amazing! I had a great time flying high with the instructor, and the view was beautiful—absolutely the best! ☆☆☆

Once the parachute opened, I usually don’t get motion sickness, but I thought I might feel a bit dizzy when floating down, so it might be a good idea to take some motion sickness medication beforehand.

以前からスカイダイビングをやりたくて、新婚旅行のハワイで、以前に体験した事のある旦那と私は初のスカイダイビングに参加。
送迎バスでは外人グループのバス？になり、現地に着いての説明も、日本人グループと離れており英語で説明されよくわからないまま飛ぶまでは不安と不満がありましたが、
スカイダイビングは、インストラクターの方とテンション高く楽しく飛べて、景色も綺麗で最高でした☆☆☆
パラシュートを開いてからは、私は酔わないタイプですが、フワッとした時に酔いそうだなと思ったので、酔い止めを飲んでおいた方が良いかもです。

Even though it was my first time horseback riding, I really enjoyed it and fell in love with horses. On the way back, we took a scenic route around the North Shore and had a great time sampling at the macadamia nut farm, which was very satisfying. The shrimp for lunch was also good.

乗馬も初めてでも、楽しく馬が好きになったよ。帰りはノースショアをぐるっと回って、マカデミアナッツファームで試食、試飲で大満足です。昼ごはんのシュリンプもグッドでした。

I have lived for nearly 60 years, and this was my first experience; it was wonderful. It didn't feel like falling from the sky, but rather like floating in the air. I felt as if I transcended everything, and my perspective on life might change. I highly recommend it to everyone who hasn't tried it yet. The staff was very kind and attentive to safety, so I had no worries at all.

人生60年近く生きてきましたが初めての体験素晴らしかったです。
空から落ちていると言う感覚ではなくて空に浮かんでいると言う感覚です。
すべてのものを超越して人生観が変わりそうな気がしました。すべてのものを超越して人生観が変わりそうな気がしました
まだ飲んだことのない皆さんには是非是非オススメです。
スタッフもとても親切で安全にも気を配ってくれますので全く心配はいりませんでした。
