All Reviews for Outdoor Adventures

It was an adventurous hike!
But we were able to go back and forth safely.
Along the way, the guide frequently explained about the plants and animals, which was very interesting.
The explanations were in English, and there were hardly any Japanese participants, but it was a good opportunity to study English and a valuable experience for communication in English.

The pickup was about 20 minutes late, which made me a bit anxious, but when I relaxed and waited, they came and found me.

It was nice that they kindly drove us back as well!

冒険のようなハイキングでした！
でも安全に行き帰りすることができました
途中、たびたびガイドさんが植物や動物について説明してくれて、興味深かったです。
英語での説明で、参加者もほとんど日本人はいませんが、英語の勉強にもなるし、英語でのコミュニケーションも良い経験になりました。

お迎えは予定より20分遅れくらいでちょっとハラハラしましたが、
のんびり待ってたらちゃんと来て探してくれました。

帰りも親切に送ってくれて良かったです！

The zipline at Kualoa Ranch is a great option. One of the advantages of the Keana Farm is that you can choose the zipline alone, which is not possible at Kualoa, and it includes round-trip transportation. At Kualoa, you can opt for round-trip transportation if you select other tours like the buggy, but if you choose the zipline alone, transportation is not included, making it difficult to get there.

You will zipline seven times with a group of ten people and three local foreign guides over about three hours. The tour description mentions a buggy ride (1.5 hours), but this does not refer to a self-driven buggy like at Kualoa, nor is it actually 1.5 hours; it refers to about a 20-minute buggy ride between the first and second ziplines.

While it seems like snacks are included, it's better to assume there will be almost none. The ziplining itself is very enjoyable, and the foreign guides are cheerful and entertaining. They are also very thorough about safety, which gives a sense of reassurance that the staff is well-trained.

Perhaps because it’s a tour for foreigners, the pickup vehicle did not arrive at the scheduled time (laughs). It takes about an hour and a half to get to Keana Farm from Waikiki, which felt very far. It would be good to have warm clothing to endure the cold car interior. No Japanese is spoken at all. I would like to go again.

クアロア牧場でもできるジップライン。こちらのケアナファームの良い点はクアロアでは不可のジップライン単独の選択+往復送迎があること。クアロアの場合、バギーなどの他のツアーを併せて選択すると往復送迎可能だが、ジップライン単独で選択すると往復送迎が付いていないので行きづらい。
１０人１組に３人の現地外国人ガイドでジップラインを７本、約３時間かけてやります。
ツアー説明文にバギー（1.5時間）と書いてありますが、これはクアロアのような自分で運転するバギーでもなければ、1.5時間でもなく、1本目と2本目のジップライン間の移動のための２０分ぐらいのバギー移動のことを指します。
軽食がついているかのような説明がありますが、ほぼないと考えておいた方が良いです。
ジップライン自体は非常に楽しく、また外国人ガイドも非常に陽気で面白いです。またとにかく徹底して安全に配慮されていますので、スタッフの教育がなされている感があり安心できます。
外国人用のツアーだからかもしれませんが、ピックアップの時間に送迎車は来ません（(笑)）
ケアナファームまでワイキキから１時間半。非常に遠いと感じました。
冷蔵庫のように冷えた車内での移動に耐えられる防寒着があると良いです。
日本語は全く通じません。
また行きたいと思っています。

Its a must go, when visiting Big Island. Sunset view is breathtaking.

Trip was awesome! Would definetly do it again. The tour guide Angela was great!

I didn't expect there to be so many stars in the sky. Yamachan, who guided us, shared his life experiences, which really resonated with me. I felt inspired to expand my own capacity as a person and would love to visit this place again.

空にこんなに星があるとは思いませんでした。
案内をしてくださったヤマちゃんはご自分の人生経験も併せて話をしてくださったのでとても心に響きました。
自分の人間としての器を更に大きくしてまた再びここを訪れたいと思いました。

It was amazing!!! At first, I was scared, but I was helped by a kind and funny instructor! I didn't have any particular worries! However, I was picked up at 5 PM and finished flying by 8 PM, and the bus back to Waikiki didn't leave until 11 PM, so I just slept on a bench for three hours. I do want to fly again next year, but I think I'll go by rental car then.

最高でした！！！
最初は怖かったですが、優しく面白い人柄のインストラクターに助けられました！
不安な事も特に無かったです！
ただ、5時にピックアップされ、8時には飛び終わってそこからワイキキ戻りのバスが11時まで出ないので、3時間ただただベンチで寝てました。
来年も飛びたいとは思いますが、その時はレンタカーで行こうと思います。

best experience of my holiday...... absolutely loved it!!!!!

When we left the hotel, I was a bit worried about the clouds covering Mauna Kea, but the tour guide reassured us, saying, "Given the look of these clouds, as the temperature drops, the clouds will likely lower as well, so I believe the view above the clouds will be good." I felt relieved.

While we were in the car, I enjoyed the comfortable scenery while listening to the guide's gentle explanations about the Big Island.

Upon reaching the summit, we were greeted with a sunset that was even more magnificent than I had imagined. I felt incredibly happy to receive such energy and to be able to appreciate it. It was truly moving, and I realized that it undoubtedly gave me vitality for my future life.

As the sun set and the brightness of the moon filled the sky, the stargazing experience was also wonderful. I completely understand why this is the number one tour.

ホテル出発時は、マウナケア上空は雲におおわれて大丈夫かな？と感じたのですが
案内していただいたツアーガイドさんが「この雲の感じですと気温が下がってくると同時に雲が下がってきてたぶん雲の上は見晴らしが良いと思われます。」と説明してくださって、
ひと安心いたしました。
車に乗っているときもガイドさんの優しい語り口でハワイ島の説明など聞きながら心地よく景色をみながら登山していきました。
山頂部に着き、思っていた以上の素晴らしいサンセット。パワーを頂き拝むことができて
最高に幸せでした。大感激。今後の人生に間違いなく活力を頂いたと実感いたしました。
太陽が沈み月の明るさで宇宙を感じ満天の星空観測も、とても素敵でした。
人気ナンバーワンのツアー納得です。

Great tour! If you're only doing the one activity at the ranch, be sure to check what time your activity starts and finishes, you might want to catch the bus or drive yourself. saves you waiting around for hours for the first shuttle bus back to Waikiki.
The actual tour itself was really fun and well run! I would highly recommend

This was by far a wonderful experience! The scenery was spectacular, the guides were friendly and courteous, and the ride was phenomenal!! We will definitely do it again when we are in Kauai. Highly recommend this adventure!

It was my first time skydiving, and I was really nervous, but the instructor and the driver were incredibly kind and friendly. The dive was so moving that I almost cried. I think it was a wonderful experience in my life.

初！スカイダイビングですごく緊張してましたがインストラクターの方、ドライバーの方がすごい優しく気さくに話しかけてくれ、ダイビングも感動して泣いちゃいそうでした。私の人生の中ですごく良い経験ができたと思います。

Had a great time! Learned a lot about the environment and other tidbits along the way to and during the zip line. The safety lecture was very thorough. Brett and Rogan were very informative, friendly, knowledgeable, and funny throughout the day. We took a couple of our friend's young teenagers and we all had a great time. Would definitely do it again when we visit again. Thanks for an awesome day Brett and Rogan!

I'd never been on the back of a horse in my life, so having this first experience in Maui was amazing! The crew were patient and friendly. The views amazing! It was a lot of fun!

The sensation of falling from 4,300 meters at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour was an invaluable experience that cannot be replaced by anything else. The views of Oahu were absolutely stunning, and I definitely want to do it again!

At the skydiving center, there were many instructors who seemed very experienced, jumping one after another, which made me feel at ease to take on the challenge.

I will definitely do it again! It was amazing!

4300メートルから時速200キロで落下する感覚は何にも変えがたい貴重な体験でした。オアフの景色がまた最高で、絶対もう一度やりたいと思います！
スカイダイビング場？にはたくさんのインストラクターが手慣れた感じで次々と飛んでいるので、その雰囲気に安心してチャレンジすることができました。
必ずまたやります！
最高です！

This was probably one of our more strenuous/lengthier hikes (water and proper footwear are highly recommended- it can get slippery on the trail). It was a lot of fun. We did cross some streams which were a bit difficult for some. You will get sweaty, wet, and dirty. No bathrooms, of course, so be prepared.
Great views. Tour guide was excellent, very passionate, helpful, and knowledgeable! Lunch was pretty good- everyone seemed to like it. Private mountain pool swim was enjoyed by most.

During a company trip, I thought I should go at least once in my life. There was also a 68-year-old woman with us.

Anyway, it was so much fun! I had an extraordinary experience surrounded by incredibly beautiful scenery. The instructor, Brad, was lively and fantastic. I want to do it again!

会社の旅行の合間に、人生１回はと思い行ってきました。
６８歳の女性の方も　いらしゃってました。

とにかく　楽しい！
非日常的な体験ができ、非常にうつくしい景色の中体験できました。
インストラクター　ブラッドくん　ノリがよく最高でした。
また、やりたくなりました。

My sister and I had a great time exploring the Waipio Valley on horseback. The guides wet very friendly and informative regarding the area. The horses were well behaved. It's a must do activity.

I tried skydiving for the first time on my first trip to Hawaii! I joined this tour because I always wanted to try it at least once in my life. To be honest, the moment I jumped was a little scary, but the instructor jumps for you, so there's no need to worry! Once you jump, an experience like no other awaits you in the air!

初めてのハワイ旅行で初めてのスカイダイビングにチャレンジしました！
人生で1回はやってみたいとの思いから、このツアーに参加しました。
正直飛び降りる瞬間は少し怖かったですが、インストラクターが勝手に飛んでくれるので心配はいりません！
飛び降りてからは、空中にいる間、
これまで体験したことのない時間が待っています！

It was a beautiful hike. Rodolpho is personable and I learned a lot about the island from him.

My husband and I were celebrating our 10 year anniversary in Hawaii and I had always wanted to go horse-back riding on the beach. This was a great place to do that, beautiful weather, even better scenery. We were very happy with the private sunset ride.

I wanted to go somewhere different and participate in an activity that not many Japanese people join, so I went with my 10-year-old child and my father. It requires physical stamina, but it was incredibly fun. However, there were absolutely no Japanese people, so it was English ONLY. My child can speak English, so we managed somehow (laughs).

いつもと違うところへ行きたくて、なおかつ日本人のあまり参加しないアクティビティということで私、子供10歳、私の父で参加してきました。体力はいりますが最高に楽しかったです。ただまったく日本人がいないので英語ONLYです。子供が英語話せるので何とかなりました(笑)

I participated in a company trip with my senior. I was nervous about my first horseback riding experience, but the horse was well-trained, so I was able to enjoy the ride. I was lucky to see sea turtles as well.

会社の旅行で先輩と一緒に参加しました。
初乗馬で緊張しましたが馬もしっかり調教されていたので、楽しんで乗れました。
ウミガメも見れてラッキーでした。

You absolutely should fly! It might be scary, but please see Hawaii from above! You can see everything!

絶対に飛ぶべきです！
怖いかもしれませんが、Hawaiiは上から見て下さい！

全部見れますよ！

I caught an amazing short bill pacific spear fish! It was the best day!! Thank you to MaggieJoes and the crew of the ruckus! You guys rock!!

My husband and I had a wonderful time on this zipline tour. The 8-lines were so much fun, and the view was great. The tour was that much more fun because of our wonderful guides, Adam and Jordan. Both were very knowledgeable and so much fun. I highly recommend this zipline tour to anyone and everyone!!

The sunset from the summit of Mauna Kea was very satisfying, so I participated again on my third trip to the Big Island. I chose to join Masashi Nature School this time because they offered stargazing at a higher elevation, rather than at the Onizuka Visitor Center.

The photos taken near the Subaru Telescope and during the sunset were varied and well done, and I appreciated being able to download the tour camera photos. I was also happy to have photos taken with the starry sky as a backdrop, and the red clouds from the Kilauea crater were captured as well.

While other companies only provided down jackets, this time the down overalls were warm too. Konno's stargazing explanations were wonderful, and I enjoyed the tour without getting bored. Thank you, Konno! I had a great time and downloaded the photos.

Participating in Masashi's tour this time was extremely satisfying compared to my previous two experiences with other companies.

マウナケア山頂からのサンセットは他の２社のツアーに参加し、大変満足できるものだったので、ハワイ島3回目の今回も参加をしました。
今回参加のマサシネイチャースクールを選んだのは、Onizukaビジターセンター近くでの星空観賞ではなく、もっと標高の高いところでの星空観賞をうたっていたからでした。
スバル天文台近くでの写真、サンセットの時も色々なバージョンでの撮影をしていただき、さらにツアーカメラでの写真をダウンロードできるのも良い点です。
他社と比べての高高度での星空観賞に加え、星空を背景の写真を撮っていただいてダウンロードできたのも嬉しかったです。キラウエアの火口の赤い雲も写ってました。
他社はダウンジャケットだけでしたが、今回はダウンのサロペットも温かかったです。
Konnoさんの星空解説も素晴らしく、ツアー途中も退屈することなく楽しみました。Konnoさん、ありがとうございました。大変楽しみましたよ！写真もダウンロードしましたよ。
今回マサシさんのツアーに参加して、過去の他社2回に比べても、大大満足ができるものでした。

This was my second time participating. The stargazing during my first visit was half as enjoyable because it was cold, so this time I came prepared with warm clothing. However, unfortunately, it coincided with a full moon, which was disappointing. Still, I repeated the experience because I was looking forward to chatting with Mr. Yamauchi, so it was good. Every time I come, I really think about wanting to live on a Hawaiian island.

2回目の参加でした。
初参加時の星空観測が寒くて楽しさ半分でしたので、今回は用意周到の厚着で参加しました。
しかし、生憎の満月に当たってしまい残念でした。
まあ、それでも山内さんとの会話が楽しみでリピートしましたから良かったです。
いつ来ても、本当にハワイの離島に住みたいと思いますね。

My husband was the one who actually went skydiving, and I attended as a spectator. We were picked up on time and arrived at the site in just over an hour. During the bus ride, we watched a Japanese DVD about the skydiving waiver. After arriving, we received explanations about camera shooting and checked off the items we wanted. All of this explanation was in English. I was glad that my husband, who cannot speak any English, didn't have to go alone.

Then it was his turn, and he received a brief explanation in Japanese before taking off in a Cessna. About 10 to 15 minutes later, we saw the parachute in the sky as he descended. According to my husband, it was over in a flash, but he had a great time and wants to do it again! At first, it was hard to breathe, but by the time he got used to it, the parachute had opened.

He had the camera take pictures and videos, which we bought for $200. It was an expensive purchase, but it became a nice keepsake.

スカイダイビングを実際にしたのは旦那で、私は見学者として行きました。時間通りにピックアップしてもらい、一時間ちょっとで現場に到着。バスの中ではスカイダイビングの免責等の日本語DVDを見ました。到着後、カメラ撮影等の説明を受け、希望の品にチェックを入れました。このときの説明はすべて英語でした。旦那が英語が全く話せないので、一人で行かせなくてよかったと思いました。その後、順番がきて、ちょっとした日本語の説明をしてもらい、セスナで飛び立って行き、その後１０分〜１５分後くらいに空にパラシュートが見えて、降りてきました。
旦那が言うには、あっという間だったけどすごい楽しかった、またやりたい！！と。
最初は息が吸いづらいけど、慣れて来た頃にはパラシュートが開いていたそうです。
カメラ撮影してもらった、画像と映像を２００ドルで買い、高い買い物でしたが、記念になりました。

I was really nervous before flying, but I'm so glad I did it!! This is something you should definitely do! The people before us didn't reach 4,000 feet because of the clouds, but we were on the second flight. It cleared up, and we were able to reach 4,000 feet, and the view was absolutely stunning, stunning, stunning!! The person who flew with me was really kind, and it became a wonderful memory (☝ ՞ ՞)☝ WAAAAAAH!!!!!!

本当に飛ぶ前まではビビりまくりでしたが、やって良かったです！！
これはやるべき！
前の人らは曇りで4000フィートまでは行かなかったみたいですが、私らは2発目。
晴れてきて4000フィートまでいけて本当に絶景、絶景、絶景でした！！
一緒に飛んでくれた人も本当に優しくいい想い出になりました(☝ ՞ ՞)☝ｳｪｪｪｪｪｪｪｪｪｪｲ!!!!!!

It was my first experience with skydiving. At first, I was a bit anxious, but the local instructors were friendly and kind, and there was also a driver who spoke in a unique way, which helped ease my worries. Before I knew it, my anxiety disappeared. I'm really glad I got to experience skydiving.

スカイダイビング初体験でした。
初めは不安もありましたが、現地のインストラクターがノリの良い方や優しく丁寧な方、あと独特な間で話すドライバーさん等がいらっしゃったので、いつの間にか不安は無くなりました。
スカイダイビングを体験できて本当に良かったです。
