Hawaii
Upon arrival, a staff member who spoke Japanese provided an explanation of the facilities at Kualoa Ranch. After the facility tour, we moved to each experience location. The horseback riding experience was conducted entirely in English, but before it started, we watched a Japanese instructional video (about 5 minutes long).
We were able to ride for a solid two hours. The weather was great, and I was moved to ride through the magnificent nature of the sea and mountains! It was my first time horseback riding, but the horses are smart and follow instructions well if you follow the video. Even if things don't go well, the guides are there to support you.
The guides for the horseback riding provided all explanations in English. The guide who accompanied us used some Japanese terms like "hidari" (left) and "migi" (right) to communicate.
As others have mentioned, my rear started to hurt after a while.
The tour fee does not include tips. I gave a $20 tip after getting off the horse.
到着すると日本語の話せるスタッフの方がクアロアランチの施設内の説明をしてくれました。
施設内の説明後に、それぞれの体験場所に移動します。
乗馬体験は全て英語で行われましたが、始まる前に日本語の乗馬説明動画(5分くらい)を見ます。
2時間みっちり乗馬をできました。
天気も良く海と山と壮大な自然の中を乗馬できて感動しました！！！
初めて乗馬をしましたが、馬もかしこいので説明動画の通りにするときちんと指示に従います。
もしうまくいかなくてもガイドの方がサポートしてくれます。
乗馬についてくれるガイドさんは全て英語で説明を行ってくれます。
今回着いてくれたガイドさんはヒダリ、ミギなど日本語を交えて伝えてくれました。
他の方が書いていた通り、途中からお尻が痛くなります。
ツアー代金にチップは含まれていません。
チップは馬を降りた後20ドル渡しました。
I recommend bringing sunscreen and sunglasses since you'll be horseback riding for two hours in sunny weather. It's best not to leave your tip money in the locker, as you'll need to give the tip right
晴れていている中で2時間乗馬をするので日焼け止めやサングラスをおすすめします。
チップは降りた後すぐに渡す事になるのでチップ用のお金はロッカーに預けない方がいいです。

I signed up for a 2-hour horseback riding course. Since I am not Japanese, the explanations were primarily in English, but they provided important parts in simple Japanese. Contrary to what I thought, the actual riding time was not short; after a brief video explanation, we set off immediately and were able to ride for almost the full 2 hours, enjoying the stunning views of both the sea and the mountains.
There was an explanation on how to use the reins, but the horse was well-trained and did not act up or stray from the course. Only a waist pouch type for carrying belongings is allowed (there are rentals available), so I recommend participants who are just experiencing horseback riding to come almost empty-handed. (Bags cannot be brought along and need to be placed in a $5 locker.)
Items like GoPro cameras cannot be hung around the neck. However, if you can attach them to your helmet or wear them on your arm, it might be possible to record videos. Photography was allowed at any time during the ride, as long as you did not stare at the screen.
2時間の乗馬コースを申し込みました．
日本人ではありませんので基本的には英語での説明でしたが，重要な部分は簡単な日本語で説明してくれました．
実際に乗っている時間は短いのかとおもいきや，簡単なビデオでの説明後すぐに出発，ほぼ2時間乗りっぱなしで海・山ともに最高の景色をみることができました．
手綱の使い方の説明がありますが馬のほうが慣れており，暴れたりコースを外れることはありませんでした．
荷物の持ち込みが腰に巻くタイプのポシェットのみ可（貸し出しもあります）ので乗馬のみ体験の方はほぼ手ぶらでの参加をおすすめします．（バックなどは持ち込めず5ドルのロッカーにいれる必要あり）
goproなども首に下げるかたちでは不可です．ヘルメットに装着したり腕につけられたら動画も可能かと思います．
写真撮影は画面を凝視しないという条件で乗馬中いつでも可能でした．
There are various activities available, but horseback riding is highly recommended. If you are experienced, you should be fine without transportation (the return bus will wait for 1 to 2 hours after t
様々なアクティビティがありますが，乗馬はかなりおすすめです．
慣れている方は送迎なしでも大丈夫かと思います．（帰りのバスは終了後1～2時間待ちます）

The driver-and-guide James has a rich knowledge of history of volcanoes and history of hawaii, and also provides expert guides on the stars.
Take your warm shoes with you.
I would not change one thing about this tour. It exceeded our expectations. the communication before the experience was excellent. Jason was an exceptional guide - so attentive! He is an expert in astronomy and Hawaiian history which we greatly enjoyed. He had a great telescope and a cool machine that takes pictures of celestial objects in the sky that he EVEN EMAILED TO US LATER! Just wow! The chicken stew was delicious too! An overall amazing, once in a lifetime experience. Thank you! Rita and Bob
None - great communication too!
wonderful crew and our family had a great day getting to snorkel with just our family!
Early wake up call but it is so worth it as the early morning views from the top of the hike felt warm and cozy.
Expensive but for the length of the lines and the length of the tour, it is well worth every penny!
Family had so much fun, the guides bring so much laughter as well as knowledge of the valley!
we got luck that the tour went out, and lucky we felt! great catch and a memorable christmas morning thanks to the crew
Easy in easy out, just be aware of rocks if you have weak ankles. The fall was flowing on the day we had planned so all was well!
Sensory overload in the best way, every twist and turn of the road another magical waterfall appears.
We felt secured and safe at all times along the zipline course, and the ending with the water hole and lunch was nice and relaxing. We would recommend to anyone visiting Kauai!!
I was anxious since I had no experience with horseback riding, but I enjoyed it very much. After watching a simple video explanation, I got on the horse right away, and the horse was so smart that I didn't really have to give any commands. The guide was very attentive to everyone and led us well. She was a very cute guide. I don't think you can often experience horseback riding in such magnificent scenery. It was a wonderful experience! ☆
乗馬未経験で不安でしたが、とっても楽しめました。簡単なビデオ説明を見ていきなり乗るのですが、お馬ちゃんが賢くて特にこちらが支持する事もなかったです。ガイドさんがみんなを気にかけながら先導してくれます。とっても可愛いガイドさんでした。壮大な景色の中の乗馬はなかなか経験できないと思います。とてもいい経験になりました☆
It was a long two hours, so my legs and butt hurt afterwards. But I really had a great time (^.^)
2時間と長いので終了後は足とお尻が痛かったです。でも、本当に楽しかった(^.^)

This was my second time participating in the tour! My child was thrilled and had a great time! Since we had a buggy, it was safe! There were some changes to the course compared to last year, but it was so much fun!! I am very satisfied!
2度目のツアー参加でした！
子供も楽しいと大喜びでした！バギーなので、安全でした！去年と比べて少しコースが変わっている場所もありましたが、とても楽しかった！！大満足です！
The dust is intense, so you must wear a bandana covering your eyes, or your face will get covered in mud! Your clothes will also get dirty from the dust! Since it's a ranch, a mask is essential!
砂ぼこりが凄いので、必ずバンダナは目の下まで付けないと、顔が泥まみれになります！！服も砂ぼこりで汚れてしまいます！牧場なのでマスクは必須です！

I went to the Onizuka Visitor Center, but the tour was canceled due to strong winds. However, I learned that I could reschedule for a fee, so I tried again the next day‼️ I was able to reach the summit safely. This was my fourth time, and I think the reassurance of having a reliable guide each time is very important. I plan to bring different guests next time and will definitely ask for your services again. Thank you!
オニズカビジターセンターまで行って強風のためツアーが中止になりましたが、振替が有料ですが出来ることを知り翌日に再チャレンジ‼️
無事に山頂に行くことが出来ました。
今回で４回目になりますが毎回、しっかりとガイドしてくれる安心感は大事だと思います。
次回も違うゲストを連れてお願いすると思います。
ありがとうございました。
I believe it is important to thoroughly prevent altitude sickness.

Being able to pilot a Cessna is a valuable experience. I took off and made turns from the captain's seat. The pilot was a Japanese man, which made me feel at ease since he spoke Japanese. I found myself wanting a pilot's license. I want to do it again.
セスナを操縦できることは貴重な体験。キャプテン席で離陸や旋回をやりました。パイロットは日本人の男性で日本語で安心しました。操縦免許が欲しくなりました。またやりたいです。
If you are prone to motion sickness, be sure to prepare in advance. Sunglasses are a must.

Since almost everything is in English on-site, I couldn't understand the tour conductor's speech, but there was a Japanese video for the initial explanation, so it was fine. It's an experience that you can't have in Japan, so I definitely recommend it! We were a family of four (with preschool children), and we had a great time! The locals were very unique and kind, making it easy to enjoy ourselves!
現地ではほぼ英語なのでツアーコンダクターの話しは分かりませんが最初の説明は日本語のビデオがあるので大丈夫でした。
日本では出来ないような体験なので是非おすすめです！家族4人（子供は未就学児）でしたがとても楽しめました！現地の人はとてもユニーク親切で安心して楽しめます！

The activity itself was very enjoyable, but there was a waiting time of three hours on-site, which made it difficult to pass the time. I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't participate in another activity during this time, as it would have made for a more efficient experience.
アクティビティ自体は、とても楽しく満喫できましたが、現地での待ち時間が３時間もあり、時間をつぶすのに苦労しました。この間に別のアクティビティーに参加できれば、効率的に過ごせたのにちょっと残念した。

I went on the stargazing tour for the second time this time. It was a full moon, so there were slightly fewer visible stars than last time, but I was overwhelmed by the beautiful night sky. Despite the cold, the hot cocoa they prepared was exceptionally delicious. The sandwiches provided were also tasty. Thank you very much.
今回2回目の星空ツアーに行きました。
満月で、見える星の数が前回より少し少なかったですが美しい星空に圧倒されました。
かなり寒い中ホットココアを用意してくださって格別に美味しく感じました。
提供されたサンドイッチも美味しかったです。
ありがとうございました。
On a full moon, the brightness of the moon seems to reduce the number of visible stars. However, the moon itself looks quite beautiful.
満月だと月の明かりが眩しくて見える星の数が少なくなるようです。
ただ月自体がかなり美しく見えます。

Our friends missed out on this amazing day because they waited to book, so don't be them!
Doors off makes it feel like your flying! Was a great tour and worth the higher pricing.
We were trying to find a perfect mix on Hana and this was it- the local farm stop really made it feel like more than just a stop and go tour!
So many lines + hiking through the valley was the most we felt into the Hawaiian vibe :)
Whoever added the Leonards stop- genius! Perfect day of activity + indulging.
We were huge fans of the show, so this was a dream to ride the exact model chopper!
The Big Island is so beautiful and to wrap up at Mauna Kea- the perfect tour!!
They do not guide you up to hike, but it was pretty self explanatory!
My kids wanted something quicker, and the guides are so great!
Even as a beginner at fishing, the crew helped me, and I had a great time. I caught three fish. The bait was squid, which I put on myself. It was fun.
釣りが初心者でも、クルーが助けてくれて、楽しめた。3匹も釣れた。エサはイカで自分でつける。楽しかった。
It would be good to have a towel to wipe your hands.
手を拭くタオルがあるとよい
Thank you for the wonderful review and beautiful photos of the fish. We are very happy that you enjoyed fishing with us as beginners and were able to catch three fish. We appreciate your suggestion about having towels on hand, and we will keep that in mind for future trips. Your comfort is important to us. We look forward to seeing you again soon for more fishing adventures. Tight lines! 🎣
素晴らしいレビューと美しい魚の写真をありがとうございます。初心者の私たちと一緒に釣りを楽しんで、3匹の魚を釣っていただけてとてもうれしいです。タオルを手元に用意しておくことについてのご提案に感謝し、今後の旅行の参考にさせていただきます。お客様の快適さは私たちにとって重要です。さらなる釣りの冒険のために、また近いうちにお会いできることを楽しみにしています。タイトなライン！ 🎣

As a first step towards my middle school son's dream of becoming a pilot, we had a flight experience, and I'm really glad we did. Since he still finds it difficult to understand English, we hoped for someone who could speak Japanese, and we were fortunate to have a wonderful person with a lovely smile, which made us feel at ease during the flight. The owner was very dedicated and shared amazing stories that felt like a lecture, leaving us deeply moved until the very end. I was also very happy to hear the kind words encouraging us to reach out anytime to help make my son's dream a reality.
Honestly, it wasn't cheap, so I hesitated, but the experience was truly worth it, and the breathtaking views have become a wonderful memory, so I highly recommend it!
将来パイロットになりたいとの中学生の息子の夢への第一歩として操縦体験をしましたが、本当に体験できてよかったです。まだ英語の理解が難しいので日本語の話せる方を希望しましたが、笑顔の素敵な方で安心してフライトを楽しむことができました。オーナーさんはとても努力家の方で講演会レベルの素敵なお話を聞かせて頂き最後まで感動しっぱなしでした。息子の夢が更に現実に向かえる様いつでも連絡してください。ととてありがたいお言葉も大変嬉しかったです。
正直お安くはないので悩みましたが本当にそれ以上の感動があり、あの絶景が素敵な思い出になりましたのでお勧めです‼︎
