All Reviews for Outdoor Adventures

I did it thinking it would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience! But I want to do it again!! It felt amazing! However, as the reviews said, the wait is really long! I read the reviews and went by rental car, but I checked in before 9 AM and waited 3 hours until the flight... It seemed like they prioritized the shuttle people. If that’s the case, they should either stagger the check-in times from the beginning or let us know that we would be waiting for 3 hours, so we could have gone sightseeing during that time!! The DVD is a bit pricey, but I'm glad I asked for it! They edit it really cool!

一生に一度と思ってやりました！
けどまたやりたい！！すっごい気持ち良かったです！
ただ、口コミ通り、めちゃくちゃ待ちます！
口コミを見て、レンタカーで行ったのですが、
9時前に受付して、飛ぶまで3時間待ちました…
多分送迎の人を先に飛ばしてたっぽいです。
だったら初めから時間をずらして受付するか、
3時間待つと教えてくれれば、待ってる間に他の観光に行けたのに！！
DVDは少し高いけど、お願いして良かったです！
カッコ良く編集してくれます！

My family had a terrific time on a very rainy day. The scenery was beautiful and the guide (Melissa) was very knowledgeable and attentive. Props to the horses for getting us around on our 2.5 hour adventure. My daughter loved it as she is an AVID horse nut.

My husband and I participated the day after our arrival in Maui, but due to bad weather, we couldn't see the stars at the summit because it was foggy. We returned and rescheduled for two days later to try again.

I heard that the only way to do a comeback with just the cost of lunch and the national park entrance fee (a total of $15) is through Maui All Stars.

Two days later, the weather improved, and we were able to see a sea of clouds, a beautiful sunset with the green flash, the shadow of the Earth, and a bright moon close to full moon, along with a moonbow that can only be seen when there is no water vapor in the distance.

Our guide, Mr. Yamauchi, mentioned that since the full moon was approaching, the stars were not as visible as usual, but we were still able to see many stars, including those not visible in Japan, the profile of Mickey on the moon, and the stripes of Jupiter.

While listening to explanations under the stars, they provided chairs, large blankets, and warm tea, allowing us to lean back and slowly gaze at the stars. Standing and looking up can be tiring on the neck, but sitting in a chair is very comfortable.

This is also a thoughtful gesture from Mr. Yamauchi based on his experience. He set up the telescopes and arranged chairs for the participants without even having lunch himself. It's no surprise that many people have commented on Mr. Yamauchi's character in their experiences.

Since I don't often have the opportunity to see stars, I had a very valuable experience thanks to Mr. Yamauchi. Next time, I would like to participate when it is as far from the full moon as possible.

Thank you very much.

主人と二人でマウイ到着翌日に参加しましたが、悪天候のため頂上まで行っても霧がかかっていて星は見られる状態ではなく帰ってきて、スケジュールを空けていた２日後にリベンジしました。

お弁当と国立公園の入園料（計＄１５）のみでリベンジできるのは、マウイオールスターズだけだと聞いています。

２日後は天候も回復して、雲海、美しいサンセットと共にグリーンフラッシュ、地球の影、そして満月近くの明るい月と遠くに水蒸気が発生していないと見えないムーンボウまで見ることができました。

ガイドの山内さんは満月が近いから星がいつもよりは見えていないとおっしゃいますが、星もたくさん見ることができ、日本では見えない星、月面の横顔ミッキー、木星の縞模様も見られました。

たくさんの星を見ながら説明を聞く時は、イスと大きいブランケット、温かいお茶を用意して下さるので、背もたれに頭を預けて上を向いてゆっくり星が見られます。
立って上を見ていると首が疲れますが、イスに座るととても楽チンです。

これも山内さんのご経験からの心遣いです。
お弁当も食べずに参加者のためにイスを出して望遠鏡などをセットしていらっしゃいました。
体験談で山内さんのお人柄にふれている方が多いのも納得です。


普段なかなか星を見る機会がないので、山内さんのお陰でとても貴重な体験ができました。
次回はなるべく満月から遠い時に参加したいと思います。

ありがとうございました。

It was very disappointing that the road was closed and there was no change in the date, so I couldn't reach the summit of Mauna Kea, but I was moved by the sunset and the starry sky.

道路が閉鎖されていて、変更する日もなく、マウナケア山頂まで行けなかったのは、とても残念でしたが、夕日と星空には感動しました。

We have been taken care of by Gunstock three times as a couple.

In the world of horseback riding, there are not many places where you can canter, but this place never disappoints, no matter when you visit (laughs). Even if you don't understand English, the handsome guide leads the way and turns back to ask, "Is cantering okay?" The well-trained horses recognize that this is a place where they can run, so they canter comfortably.

Gunstock is the best!! We will definitely visit again next time!

ガンストックさんへは夫婦で3回お世話になっております。

外乗ではなかなかキャンター（駈歩）させてもらえる所が少ない中ここはいつ訪れても裏切らないです（笑）
英語がわからなくてもイケメンガイドのお兄さんが先導してくれ後ろを振り返り「キャンターＯＫ？」って声をかけてくれます。きちんと調教された馬がここは走ってもＯＫの場所だと認識しているので気持ちよく駈歩してくれます。

ガンストックさん最高！！次回も絶対お邪魔します！

On the night of my arrival, slightly tipsy, I made a reservation. I finally got to try skydiving, something I had wanted to do for a long time.

I boarded the pickup wagon at 6:30 AM, and shortly after, a waiver was distributed. I gulped as I read through the items, including "I will not hold your company responsible, including my family, in case of an accident," and signed all the items! The car was silent.

Upon arriving at the airfield, we watched a video explaining the potential risks, and then I met my instructor, who would jump with me. He was friendly and cheerful, but his serious expression while putting on the gear gave me a sense of reassurance, showing he was indeed a professional.

Then we boarded the Cessna and took off. A few minutes later, when the altimeter indicated we were almost there, the instructors in the cabin started shouting excitedly as the large door opened.

One by one, the dives began, and finally, it was my turn. Perhaps because it was too high or because I had no time to think, I didn't feel much fear of heights as I jumped out, falling at a speed of 200 km/h! It felt more like floating in the air. (It varies by person, but for me, doing a freestyle swim in the air was the most fun part!)

Once the parachute opened safely, I finally noticed the amazing scenery and was able to slowly enjoy the magnificent panorama. (I had heard that looking down could make you dizzy, so I occasionally looked into the distance.)

As the ground quickly approached, I realized I was going quite fast, but I landed safely. I exchanged a firm handshake with my instructor, and my unknown experience came to an end.

Thanks to the clear skies and calm winds, I was extremely satisfied. This could become addictive. I highly recommend giving it a try!

到着日の夜、ほろ酔い加減で予約。
以前からやってみたいと思っていたスカイダイビング初挑戦です。

6：30AMのお迎えワゴンに乗り込みしばらくすると誓約書が配られ、「事故が起きても遺族を含め貴社に責任を問いません」等の項目にゴクリ・・・全項目にサイン！車中はシーンとしていました。

飛行場に到着すると、これまたビデオでミスの可能性などの説明ビデオを見てから一緒に飛ぶインストラクターとご対面。
気さくで明るい方でしたが、器具装着時の顔は真剣そのもので、さすがプロという姿勢が安心感を与えてくれました。

そしてセスナ機に乗り込み離陸。
数分後に高度計を指し、もうじきであることを告げられると、機内のインストラクター達が奇声を発して大きな扉が開かれます。

次々とダイブが始まり、ついに自分の順番。
高すぎるためか、考える間もなく飛び出されたためか、高所恐怖はさほど感じないまま、時速200kmのスピードで落ちる！というより空に浮いている感覚でした。（人にもよりますが、空で平泳ぎをしたりでこのときが一番楽しい!）

無事パラシュートが開くとようやくすばらしい景色に気づき、ゆっくりと壮大なパノラマを楽しめます。（下を見たままだと酔うと聞いていたので、時折遠方に目を向けます）

みるみる地面が近づくと、結構なスピードが出ていることが分かりましたが、無事着地。
インストラクターと固い握手をかわして、未知の体験が終了です。

快晴と無風に恵まれたこともあり、大満足でした。
これは、クセになりそうです。
是非、お試しを！

Skydiving was my number one thing I wanted to do on my honeymoon.

I experienced it with my husband. It was very scary being up in the sky and jumping out until the parachute opened, but the instructor reassured us, and I was able to dive with confidence!!

It truly felt like I became a bird, and it was a wonderful experience!!

I thought I should do it at least once in my life, but if I have the chance again, I would love to do it!

新婚旅行でしたいこと第1位に予定してたスカイダイビング

主人と体験しました
空の上に上がって、飛び降りてパラシュートが開くまでとても、怖かったですが、インストラクターの方が声をかけてくださって安心してダイブできました！！

ほんと、鳥になったみたいで、素敵な体験でした！！

人生に一度は！と思ってましたが、また機会があればしたいです！

The scenery was nice, but I think it could use a bit more thrill. It's suitable for beginners.

景色はよかったが少しスリルあった方がいいと思う。初心者向き。

I usually don't look at stars, so I decided to participate in this experience in Hawaii. The explanations were great, and being able to observe various stars through the telescope was a wonderful experience. Mr. Yamauchi's talk also touched my heart. It's a tour that gives you energy.

普段星なんて見ないので、ハワイでは体験してみようと参加。
解説も良かったし、望遠鏡でいろいろな星を観察できたのがとても良い体験でした。
山内さんのお話も心にしみました。
元気をもらえるツアーです。

We participated as a family. The sunset at Haleakalā was amazing!!!! The starry sky was great too!!! We saw a lot of shooting stars. Since it is at a lower elevation than Mauna Kea on the Big Island, it was easier physically. I think it's good for elderly people and small children. I want to go again.

家族で参加しました。ハレアカラの夕日、最高！！！！
星空もよかった！！！　流れ星もたくさん見ました。
ハワイ島のマウナケアより標高が低いので体力的にはこちらのほうが楽でした。お年寄りや小さなお子さんにはいいと思いました。また行きたいです。

My husband and I did this activity while on our honeymoon in Jan. We had a blast, even though we were both covered in red mud and water, it was great experience. Kipu Ranch is beautiful, I recommend that all people see the land and hear all the history behind it. My husband and I will most definitely do this activity when we go back, but take individual quads this time,

I loved the helicopter ride, something I've always wanted to do! I paid the extra $25 for preferred seating, I wouldn't do that again since every seat is a window seat, that was deceiving:( The pilot did a great job explaining what we were seeing, ect. Overall it was great, I would do it again, minus the preferred seating.

Without a doubt, jumping from 4,000 meters was a moment of instant tension. The aerial experience was incredible, offering a panoramic view of Hawaii's ocean and mountains. I even spotted some small whales in the sea. It's an experience that can't be fully conveyed unless you try it yourself, and it made me want to do it again. The staff were very experienced, which provided a great sense of security. This was the highlight of my trip to Hawaii!

有無を言わさず4000mから飛び出すので、緊張も一瞬でした。
最高の空中時間で、ハワイの海と山を一望でき、海には小さいながらもクジラも見れたり、体験してみないと伝えきれない、また飛びたいと思える経験でした。
スタッフも飛び慣れていて安心感は抜群でした。
今回のハワイ旅行の一番の思い出です！

I participated this time with anticipation, a long-held wish. There was no worry about joining alone, and we smoothly took to the skies. I had no fear of flying at all. The weather was great, and the scenery was fantastic.

One disappointing thing was that I requested videos and photos, but the quality varied greatly depending on the cameraman. After the flight, in the waiting room, other people's flights were being shown, and it looked like they were having fun, holding hands and touching with the cameraman (a male cameraman with curly blonde hair).

During my flight, I had a female cameraman, and I wondered where she was. After returning home, I was disappointed when I watched my video. The second half was unclear due to fogging and water droplets on the lens. It was quite a poor product. I suppose I have a memento that I flew, but that’s about it.

以前からの希望で、今回楽しみに参加。
一人参加の心配も無く、スムーズに上空に。飛び立つ恐怖は全くなし。お天気もよく景色も最高でした。

一つ残念な事は、今回ビデオ・写真をお願いしましたが、カメラマンさんによって全然出来が違った事。
終わった後に控え室？にて、他の方のフライトが上映されてましたが、カメラマンさんと手を繋いたり・タッチしたりと楽しげな様子が映し出されてました。（カールした金髪の男性カメラマンさん）

自分の時は女性、フライト中ドコに居たんだろぉ…という感じでした。帰宅後自分のビデオ見てガッカリ。後半半分は、レンズの曇り・水滴で画像不鮮明。
とてもお粗末な代物。　一応飛んできた、と言う記念は残ったかなと言う感じでした。

Anna was very knowledgeable of the plants and water falls.Anna paced the hike for young and mature and gave everyone the oppurtunity to participate. We didn't know what to expect but were very pleased at the end of the adventure.Mahalo

I gathered my courage and took on a challenge for the first time. My impression is...
It was absolutely amazing!! So much fun!! I want to do it again and again!!
I have a fear of heights and I'm not good with amusement park thrill rides, but this feeling is completely different. You definitely should try it! I think it's worth more than the price.
I recommend taking photos. I thought it might be okay to skip the DVD. The wait time was long, but I was so excited that it didn't bother me at all.
I did it in early February, and I saw a lot of whales from the sky!

勇気を出して、初めての挑戦でした。感想は。。。
最高に気持ちいい！！楽しい！！何回もやりたい！！
私は高所恐怖症だし、遊園地の絶叫マシンも苦手だけど、その感覚とは全然違います。これは絶対やったほうがいいです！値段以上の価値があると思います。
写真はおすすめです。ＤＶＤは無くてもいいかな～と思いました。待ち時間は長いですが、そんなの気にならないくらい興奮しました。
2月上旬にやりましたが、空からたくさんのくじらが見えました！

We participated as a couple. Since we are attending a riding school in Japan, we were looking forward to horseback riding abroad. The handsome staff communicated with us in broken Japanese, and we enjoyed a walk on the beautiful beach of the North Shore. Then we did log jumps, and afterwards, we even got to canter, which made us very satisfied.

夫婦で参加しました。
日本で乗馬学校に通っている事もあり海外での乗馬を楽しみにして。
英語が話せない私達にイケメンスタッフが片言の日本語で対応してくれノースショアの美しいビーチをお散歩。
そして丸太ん棒のジャンプ。その後駈歩までさせて頂き
とっても満足できました。

It was my first skydiving experience. The dive from the sky was intense, but the staff were very reliable, so I felt safe. I want to do it again!

初スカイダイビングでした。
これでもか！というぐらい上空からのダイブでしたが、スタッフさんがしっかりしていたので、安心でした。
またやりたいです。

We went to this tour while on our honeymoon and we loved it! So cool to see all of the hand dug tunnels and the guides were awesome! very outgoing and made the whole trip a lot more fun, had a great way of getting the whole group talking and having fun. Would definitely do again and kids would really love it!

I love horseback riding and have taken various lessons, but I had my first experience with polo in Japan, as there weren't many opportunities.

First, we practiced hitting the ball on the ground. After that, I hit the ball while walking on the horse, and gradually I was able to hit the ball while the horse was running. The horse was very smart and moved towards the ball on its own.

I was very satisfied with the added enjoyment of horseback riding.

I had a great experience in the beautiful nature of the North Shore.

The staff were kind, and even though I didn't understand much English, we were able to communicate through gestures.

Thank you very much.

乗馬が好きでいろいろレッスンを受けてきましたが、ポロは日本では機会がなく初体験でした
まずは地上で球を打つ練習
その後、馬に乗り歩かせながら球を打ち、徐々に馬を走らせながら球を打つ所まで出来ました
馬がとても賢く、ポロに慣れているため球を打った方へ自ら移動します

乗馬プラスαの楽しさで大満足

ノースショアの大自然の中、とても良い経験ができました

スタッフの方も親切で英語があまりわからなくても身振り手振りで意志の疎通が出来ました

ありがとうございました

I have experienced horseback riding a few times before, but this was my first time riding in such a professional setting.

They selected a horse that suited each individual, and without any fear, I was able to spend a wonderful time in the great nature of Maui and enjoy the fresh air♪

This time, I participated in the morning course, but if I have the chance again, I would definitely like to join the afternoon course!

今まで何度か乗馬を体験しましたが、
こんなに本格的な乗馬は初めてでした。

一人一人に合った馬を選んでいただき、怖いこともなく、
マウイの大自然と美味しい空気の中、とても素敵な時間を過ごすことができました♪

今回は午前中のコースを体験しましたが、またチャンスがあれば、是非午後のコースに参加してみたいと思います！

We participated as a couple in January. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, but our guide worked hard to make up for it, and it was a very enjoyable tour. I think there's nothing we can do about the weather. Still, we were able to safely observe the starry sky.

Next time, I will definitely seek revenge. I look forward to it again!

1月に夫婦で参加しました。
残念ながらお天気に恵まれませんでしたが、それをカバーするぐらいガイドの方ががんばって下さり、とっても楽しいツアーでした。
お天気だけはどうする事もできないと思います。
それでも無事に星空観測をすることができました。

次回、絶対リベンジします。
その時はまたよろしくお願いします！

I was very healed by the cute horses and the great nature. It felt absolutely wonderful. I want to participate again!

かわいい馬と、大自然にとても癒されました。最高に気持ちよかったです＾＾また参加したいです。

They took photos for us at every stop, so even as a couple, we didn't have to worry about taking pictures. I really appreciated this thoughtful gesture.

Since I chose the hiking plan, I walked through the botanical garden at the end point in Waimea Canyon, but it was hard to understand the different zones without being able to read English... I can recommend it for nature lovers, but if I were to do it again, I think I'd prefer horseback riding after seeing others.

I was told that in winter, it depends on the turtles, but luckily, we encountered a sea turtle basking on the rocks! The conversations along the way were enjoyable, but on the way back, I was so tired that I fell into a deep sleep. You can have such a fulfilling experience in a short amount of time. I highly recommend it.

行く先々でまず写真撮影をしてくれたので、カップルで参加してもカメラ撮影に気を揉まずにすみました。
本当にこういう心遣いは嬉しかったです。

ハイキングプランをチョイスしたので、ワイメア渓谷がゴール地点の植物園を歩いたのですが、英語が読めないとゾーンが変わってもよくわからないという…
自然大好き！な方にはオススメできますが、リピートするなら乗馬がいいなぁと他の方々を見て思いました。

冬場は寒いので出会えるかは亀次第…と説明を受けたものの、運良くウミガメの甲羅干しにも出会えてラッキー！
道中の会話も楽しかったのですが、帰りは疲れて熟睡してしまいました。
それだけ充実した内容を短時間で過ごせます。オススメです。

I expected this trip would be a magical chance to get to stand "on top of the world" and watch the sunset and see the stars. It was indeed spectacular. The stargazing portion was really geared towards people who are absolute astronomy beginners, so if youre an amateur astronomer you'll be a little disappointed that you don't get to see more. But the guides were great the whole time giving a great history of the Big Island ranging from botany to politics to Volcano development. Don't expect a very lively time, if you're there as an individual it's a quiet, lonely world up there. but would be great as an adventurous couple to see something totally out of the ordinary.

For some reason, all 10 participants were Japanese. Since it was the second choice of dates, could it be that the organizers controlled it to turn out that way? However, it was English-only, and there were no problems at all; it was my first experience with horseback riding, and I enjoyed it thoroughly.

なぜか参加者１０名全員が日本人でした。第二希望の日程だったので、ひょっとするとそうなるように主催者側でコントロールしている？ でも英語オンリーでしたが、全く問題なく、乗馬初体験でしたが充分楽しめました。

Last time I participated in the summer, and since the constellations visible change with the seasons, this time I went in winter when my constellation is visible.

Every time I joined during the new moon according to the lunar calendar, I was amazed by the starry sky, but this time I couldn't adjust my schedule, so I ended up going close to the full moon and had low expectations. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how many stars I could see.

Additionally, the weather was absolutely perfect, allowing us to see the red lava lake of Kilauea from the summit.

I also love that I can take a lot of photos each time, and they upload the images on their website.

前回は夏に参加、季節で見える星座も違うので、今回自分の星座が見える冬に行きました。
毎回月の暦で新月の時に参加して満天の星に感激でしたが、今回スケジュールの調整つかず、満月に近い日になって期待薄だったのですが、思っていた以上に星が見え良かったです。

また、天気が最高に良かったのでキラウエアの赤い溶岩溜まりやを山頂から見ることが出来ました。

毎回写真を沢山撮って、ホームページ上で画像をアップしてもらえるのも魅力です。

I am very satisfied that I was able to do my dream skydiving at this age. It was cheaper than anyone I heard from after returning home. The service was definitely not bad either. It was great.

この年で憧れのスカイダイビングができてとても満足です。帰国して聞いた経験者の誰より安かった。決してサービスも悪くなかったし。良かった。

Skydiving was incredibly fun! On the day of the jump, there were some clouds, so we jumped from a slightly lower altitude, but I was more than satisfied. The cameraman assigned to me seemed to have low skills, and it looked like we might have to turn back due to the thick clouds, but somehow we managed to jump. I also bought the DVD, and it became a great memory. When you go, I definitely recommend renting a car with a navigation system and driving there yourself! Next time, I want to jump on a clear day! I'll definitely go again!

スカイダイビング最高に楽しかった！
当日は雲がかかって、少し低いところからだったようだけど、十分満足です。
僕担当のカメラマンの技術が低かったのか、厚い雲で飛ぶのを諦めて引き返しそうでしたが、なんとか飛んでもらえました。
DVDも買いましたが、良い思い出になりました。
行くときは、ぜひナビ付きのレンタカーを借りて自力で行くのがオススメです！
今度は、快晴の日に飛びに行きたいです！また行きます！

We proceed in a line through the mountains. My friend, who was experiencing horseback riding for the first time, was very happy and enjoying it. I was hoping to see the ocean from horseback, but we followed a route that went through the mountains, only occasionally catching glimpses of waterfalls. All the explanations during the ride were in English, so Japanese was not understood. Perhaps because of that, the tour guide was chatting happily with the Western families. However, they were very friendly and kind. The reception is at the counter of a gift shop, which makes it a bit confusing, and since it also serves as a meeting point for other tours, it can get chaotic during the gathering. After checking in and using the restroom, I recommend listening carefully inside the shop.

山の中を一列になって進みます。
乗馬初体験の友人も大喜びで楽しんでいました。
馬上から海を見れるのかなと期待していましたが、ずっと山の中の道を進むルートでたまに滝が見える程度でした。
乗馬中の説明は全て英語なので日本語は通じません。そのせいかツアーガイドの方も欧米のファミリーと話が弾んでいました。でもとても笑顔で親切でしたよ。
受付が雑貨屋のカウンターなので解りにくい事と、他のツアーの集合場所にもなっているので集合の時に混乱します。
受付とトイレを済ませたらお店の中で耳を済ませている事をおすすめします。
