All Reviews for Outdoor Adventures

The guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. It was a fulfilling day. It was really good. However, all the participants were Americans, and perhaps because they all had knowledge about Hawaii, the topics discussed were quite difficult. Things like how to buy land and rumors about Captain Cook. If you have prior knowledge and are fluent in English, it would be very enjoyable, but if your level is just average, you might feel a bit left out.

ガイドさんがとても熱心ないい方で、知識も豊富。充実感のある一日でした。とても良かったです。ただ参加者はアメリカ人の方ばかりで、またハワイに着いても知識がある方ばかりだったからか、話の内容がなかなか難しいものでした。土地の買い方やキャプテンクックの噂話など。事前知識があったり、おそらく英語がペラペラだととっても楽しいかと、ただそれなりレベルだとポツン悲しい思いをしてしまうかも。

Amazing crew and experience ♥️🐢 saw several turtles and so much more with explanations by the staff

The driver was polite and it was great. It was a very good hike that we could do in two hours with elementary school children, going up and down. The weather was nice, and the view from the top was wonderful. There were also many elderly people and those with babies.

ドライバーさんが丁寧で良かったです。小学生子供連れて、２時間で、登って降りて来れる、とても良いハイキングでした。天気も良く、頂上からの眺めは素晴らしかったです。お年寄りも赤ちゃん連れの方もたくさんいました。

A cheerful guide with 200% enthusiasm will take you through the jungle by car. It's a real mountain road, so it's like a roller coaster activity. I was torn between this and a movie location tour, but if you're not that invested in movies, I recommend this one. The scenery was beautiful and it was fantastic!

テンション200%の陽気なガイドさんが車でジャングルを案内してくれます。本格的な山道なので、ジェットコースターみたいなアクティビティです。映画のロケ地ツアーと迷いましたが、そこまで映画に思い入れがない人はこちらがおすすめ。景色も綺麗で最高でした！

After arriving at Kualoa Ranch, there were some parts of the explanation that were a bit unclear. The horseback riding experience varies depending on the personality of the horse, so compatibility can differ between people and horses. I recommend studying how to ride and handle horses in advance!

説明は全部英語でクアロアランチ到着後、多少説明がわかりづらい部分はありました。乗馬体験は、馬によっても性格も違うので相性が合うかは人と馬によりけりです。馬の乗り方や馬の操り方を事前に勉強しておくことをオススメします！

It was a valuable experience. Thank you very much. If I have the opportunity, I would like to participate again. Thank you.

貴重な体験となりました。ありがとうございました。機会があれば、また参加させて頂きたいです。ありがとうございます。

My husband and I had a tour with James through Hawaiian Eyes Tours and absolutely loved it!! The sunset was beautiful and the star gazing was such an eye opening experience! James was very knowledgeable about the sights and Hawaiian culture. Highly recommend!

Tommy picked us up early at a neighboring hotel/resort. As soon as we arrived, he mentioned me and my son by name and I signed a sheet stating we were present. He was kind, patient, relaxed and informative about the area offering great suggestions on different locations. This experience included our entrance fee to Diamond Head State Monument, transportation to and from the hotel. Our hike was moderate and offered beautiful scenery and awesome photo opportunities. The only area I felt somewhat claustrophobic was going into the tunnel on the way up. Tommy provided cold as well as room temperature water and the ride back was comfortable and convenient as we were dropped off right in front of our resort. Thank you for a great experience! Mahalo!

I was a bit apprehensive after reading reviews about horses acting up, but the horse I rode was very calm and didn't act out at all! All the other horses were also well-behaved and adorable!

The guide spoke entirely in English, so I couldn't fully understand since I'm still studying the language. However, the guide communicated safety checks in Japanese during the ride, which made me feel very reassured! I hope to improve my English soon so I can participate again!

口コミで馬が暴れて大変だったなど等を見て少し身構えていましたが、とても大人しい馬で暴れるなどは全くありませんでした！他の方の馬も暴れることなくどの馬もみんな可愛かったです！
ガイドは全て英語のため、英語勉強中の私にはまだ理解できませんでした、、
乗馬中の安全確認はガイドさんが日本語で話しかけてくれたのでとても安心感がありました！早く英語が出来るようになってからまた参加したいと思いました！

There were a lot of people, so the start was delayed. However, once the preparations began, everything moved quickly, and we soon transferred into the helicopter. The instructor was very considerate, which was great. I felt a moment of fear just before the dive, but during the fall, it was exhilarating. It was an amazing experience!

人数が多かったのかスタートが遅かったです。
でも、準備が始まってからは一気にことご進んであっという間にヘリの中に移動。
インストラクターがすごく気を遣ってくれてよかったです。
ダイブする瞬間だけ恐怖を感じましたが落ちてる最中はうおーって感じでした。
とても素晴らしい体験でした！

I received a message the day before that the event might be canceled, and I was waiting for a notification on the day itself, but there was none. Somehow, I managed to get to the location with the rental car, but it was a bit hard to find.

With all that, I was feeling dissatisfied and anxious until it started, but once the horseback riding began, it was incredibly fun! The horses are just so smart. Since the altitude is high, it rained on some parts of the course, and there were muddy spots, but they walked very well.

The rain-soaked grasslands looked beautiful. In the midst of all this, a family of wild pigs, about ten of them, crossed the path like a scene from a movie. The two and a half hours flew by. It was truly a wonderful experience. I really want to go again!

前日に中止になるかもと連絡があり、当日の連絡を待っていましたが無し。何とかレンタカーが現地に行けましたが、少々分かりにくい場所です。
そんなこんなで始まるまでは不満と不安でしたが、実際に乗馬が始まると、めちゃくちゃ楽しい！
お馬さんがとにかく、賢いです。標高が高いので雨がコースによっては降ったので、泥濘みもありましたが、すごく上手に歩いてくれます。
雨に濡れた草原がキレイに映ります。
そんな中を映画の一コマみたいに野生の豚の親子が10匹程で横断します。2時間半があっという間にです。本当に素晴らしい体験でした。。
すごくまた、行きたいです。

I love zip-lining. I had done it in Japan before, but this one is on another level. Gliding while overlooking the canyon is just amazing.

ジップラインが好きです日本でもやったことはありましたが、こちらは別格です。
渓谷を見渡しながら滑り抜けるのは、気持ちよ過ぎです。

A few years ago, I had high expectations for the night sky I saw from the mid-mountain, but I was a bit disappointed this time. While it’s less affected by clouds, the surrounding lights seemed to interfere, and I didn't feel that much awe. Considering the cost-performance, I think a mid-mountain tour might be sufficient. However, this is a tour you can't miss if you want to experience 4,000 meters.

数年前に中腹から見た星空以上を期待してましたが以下でややガックリ。くもの影響は受けにくいですが周りの光がやや邪魔してかそれ程の感動を感じませんでした。
コスパを考えるなら中腹のツアーでいいのかなってのが感想です。
ただ4000mを体験するには外せないツアーです。

This is managed by a couple who lived in Kansai, so communication in Japanese is fine. If you have Line, they can send you photos, which makes for great memories. I recommend allowing a little extra time. Refueling took a bit longer than expected. The weather was nice, and we enjoyed a fun scenic flight while piloting around the eastern route of Oahu. The departure and arrival will be at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport.

関西で暮らしていた夫婦の経営ですので、やり取りは日本語でOKです。Lineがあると写真も送ってくれ、記念になります。時間は少し余裕を持っ行くことをお勧めします。燃料給油に少し時間が掛かりました。天気も良く、飛行機のオアフ島の東回りコースで、操縦しながらの楽しい遊覧飛行が出来ました。ダニエル.K．イノウエ国際空港の離発着になります。

I participated in the event in Hawaii for four days, and unfortunately, it was raining heavily that day, so I thought it might be canceled. However, by the time we were supposed to start, the rain had stopped, which was great. But during the trail, it started raining again, and I had to wear a raincoat to climb.

I'm not good at climbing, so I walked slowly, and I felt both grateful and sorry that everyone was waiting for me. However, I managed to reach the summit, and it was very fulfilling. I think it's more enjoyable to climb with a guide who explains various things along the way rather than just climbing.

On the way back down, I think having a walking stick would make it safer. For lunch, we were provided with very delicious sandwiches, and we also got to visit Tantalus, which is not easy to access on your own. It was a very fulfilling half-day. Thank you very much.

ハワイ4日に参加したのですが、運悪くその日は雨が凄く降っていてもう中止になるかと思いきや、参加の時間頃には雨も止み良かったと思いましたが、トレイル中にまた雨が降ってきてレインコートを来て登りました。
私は登りが苦手なのでゆっくり歩いていましたが皆さん待っていてくれてありがたいのと申し訳ないでいっぱいでしたが、何とか頂上まで登りきることが出来てとても達成感がありました。ただ登るより色んなことを説明してもらいながらガイドさんと登るほうが楽しいと思います。
帰りは坂の下りなのでステッキがあったほうが危なくないと思います。
ランチはとても美味しいサンドイッチを用意してもらい中々自分では行けないタンタラスの丘にも行けてとても充実した半日でした。
ありがとうございました。

I participated with my four grandchildren. We got completely covered in dust, but we thoroughly enjoyed the world of Jurassic Park in the vast nature.

4人の孫を連れて参加しました。全身埃だらけになりましてが広大な自然の中ジュラシックパークの世界を満喫できました。

At first, I wasn't sure what to do, but since it was a famous place and seemed interesting, I decided to participate. The buggy ride was amazing!

最初は、どうしようかなと思ったのですが、有名な場所であり、面白そうなので参加しました。
バギー最高でしたよ。

I was able to participate with peace of mind thanks to the shuttle service. The explanation was given in Japanese, so I understood it well. The pre-experience video was also in Japanese, which made it easy to follow. Above all, the horses are smart and adorable.

Horseback riding in nature is refreshing and healing.

I might have muscle soreness tomorrow! ^_^

送迎付きで安心して参加できました
説明は日本語の方がしてくれたので良くわかりました
体験前のビデオも日本語なので良くわかりました
なにしろ馬がお利口で可愛いです

自然の中での乗馬は気持ちよく癒されます

明日は筋肉痛になるかも^_^

Such a great experience for the kiddos. Fast and thrilling and lots of great stops through the ride.

Beautiful waterfall, and a gorgeous hike in. We had just enough time, a perfect tour.

We took a bus to the zipline location. The driver shared stories about movie filming sites and legends associated with Kualoa Ranch. (Google Translate was really helpful!)

The activities are supported by guides, so there's no need to worry. You can manage with gestures as well.

It felt amazing to be surrounded by the peaceful nature. You can also enjoy a suspension bridge and a bit of hiking. There are ride photos available, which you can check and purchase at the waiting hut for about $20 each.

The friendly guide asked simple questions in English like, "What’s your favorite fruit?" and "What’s your favorite movie?" My elementary school daughter was a bit nervous about those questions, though! I would love to participate again.

ジップラインの場所までバスで移動。ドライバーさんが映画のロケ地やクアロアランチに伝わる伝説を話してくれます。（Google翻訳大活躍！）
アクティビティはガイドさんがサポートしてくれるので心配いりません。あとはジェスチャーでなんとかなります。

静かな大自然の中で最高に気持ち良かったです。
吊り橋やちょっとしたハイキングも楽しめます。
ライドショットがあり、待合の小屋で確認、購入出来ます。1枚20ドルくらい。
フレンドリーなガイドさんが「好きな果物はなに？」とか「好きな映画は？」とか簡単な英語で話しかけてくれますが、小学校の娘はその質問に緊張しておりました笑
また参加したいです。

We enjoyed the ride! There was two of us on the trip and it was so pleasant. It rained briefly but didn’t stop us. The guide was knowledgeable and very friendly. We will definitely tell our friends about it and do it again when we come back. Thank you!!! Mahalo!

Despite my worries before going, it was the best experience, and I was very satisfied with the views. The sunset over the sea of clouds at an altitude of over 4000 meters brought me to tears. After the sun set, I forgot the cold while marveling at the starry sky, which was truly breathtaking. The guide primarily spoke English, but they did their best to communicate in my limited Japanese and took great care in preventing altitude sickness, which made me very happy as well.

行く前の心配とは裏腹に、最高の経験、景色を見ることができ大満足。
標高4000ｍ超の空間と目の前に広がる雲海に沈む夕日は涙が出る思いでした。
日が沈んだあとの満点の星空とは正にこのことかと寒さを忘れました。
基本は英語でしたが、拙い日本語を駆使して一所懸命のガイドしてくれ、高山病予防にも細かく気を使ってくれ、これも大満足。

Jay explained things very well before embarking on a great flight. I thoroughly enjoyed my flight and would recommend it to anyone

It rained the day before, so there was no dust at all, and it was comfortable. It was fun to drive through the great outdoors, which is a rare experience. The instructor was kind, and the 2-hour tour flew by.

前日に雨が降り、全く砂埃がなくて、快適でした。
なかなか体験できない大自然の中を自分の運転で走り抜けるのは楽しかったです。
インストラクターも優しくて、2時間のツアーあっという間でした。

Last March, I was able to see the sunrise from the summit. This year, I climbed to the summit around 8:30 AM on April 17, but isn't it impossible to see the sunrise from the summit in April? The gate opens at 6 AM, and the sunrise on April 17 should be around 6:10 AM, but it takes more than 10 minutes to reach the summit, so wouldn't it be a sunrise seen from partway up?

昨年3月に山頂から日の出を見ることが出来ました。本年は、4月17日に山頂へは8時30分ごろに登りましたが、4月は山頂から日の出が見るのは無理なのではないですか？ゲートが6時に開門して4月17日の日の出は6時10分ごろのはずですが、10分で山頂までは行けないので、途中からの日の出になるのではないですか？

It was the best experience. The two-hour horseback riding was fulfilling, taking us from the ocean side of Kualoa Ranch through the plateau where Jurassic World was filmed. We formed a group of six, with the guide leading us in a single file. This time, we were in a group with two couples from America and Australia. Throughout the two hours, the guide moved to the front, the middle, and the back, carefully following each person. It was my first time riding for such a long duration, and I was nervous at first, but the guide's support allowed me to ride with peace of mind. At some point, I felt a connection with the horse, and I couldn't help but find it adorable. Before the ride, the guide mounted a horse and explained how to ride. (Japanese participants are shown a Japanese video without needing to request it.)

Due to age restrictions, I went ahead to Kualoa Ranch with my older child for horseback riding, and in the afternoon, I met up with my husband and younger child to enjoy the buggies. I saw reviews mentioning waiting for the return bus, so I arranged for transportation only for myself and my older child for the ride there, and we returned with a taxi that we had booked for the whole family. There were hamburgers and other items available at the shop. During horseback riding, you can only take drinks and a smartphone, but there is a locker available for $5 a day that allows for multiple entries and can hold about three backpacks.

最高の体験でした。
2時間の乗馬は、クアロアランチの海側からジュラシックワールドの撮影場所の台地を抜けて進むという内容で充実しました。6人でグループになり、ガイドが先導し１列で進んでいきます。今回はアメリカとオーストラリアから参加したカップル2組と一緒のグループになりました。ガイドは2時間の間、前に行ったり、真ん中に入ったり、最後尾についたり、一人一人丁寧にフォローしてくれました。長時間の乗馬は初めてで最初は緊張しましたが、ガイドのフォローで安心して乗ることが出来ました。途中から馬と少し心が通じた？気がして、馬が可愛くて仕方なかったです。乗馬前には、ガイドが馬に跨り、乗馬について説明してくれます。(日本人はリクエストしなくても日本語の動画を見せられます。)
年齢制限があるため、乗馬は上の子供と一足先にクアロアランチに向かい、午後は夫と下の子供と合流し、バギーを楽しみました。
帰りのバスの時間が待つという口コミを見たので、送迎は私と上の子だけ有りで行きのみ利用し、帰りは家族全員で予約していたタクシーで帰りました。食事はハンバーガーなどが売店にありました。乗馬時は飲み物とスマホくらいしか持って行けませんが、1日5ドルで何度でも出し入れできるロッカーがあり、リュック3個くらいは入ります。

We enjoyed our day. The staff were organized and very friendly. They ensured everyone was safe and comfortable. The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed being able to explore the property and look at the waterfalls. We had a nice time sitting by the waterfall and having time to enjoy going in the water. We were a bit disappointed by the ride itself as were are more seasoned and experienced riders. The pace was very geared to beginners and some guests had no clue what they were doing and that slowed the activity. We also hoped to have a ride close by ocean and that isn’t part of this activity, not their fault. I should have looked into that more. We basically road around through trails in a field. One last bit of advice, they should chill the drink they serve better. We appreciated though being provided a drink and snack part way through.

Great zip line experience! Beautiful scenery. Always felt safe. Guides were awesome! I was worried about transportation from cruise ship and back. We caught a taxi and same guy came back to pick us up. No problem.
