Hawaii
This was my second time ziplining at Kualoa. The last time was about two years ago (there were no Japanese people after COVID), so everything was in English, but this time the reception was handled by a Japanese person.
The jeep ride to the zip base camp was in fast-paced English, so I listened while using Google Translate.
You will walk a bit on mountain paths, so I think sneakers and comfortable clothing are best. Even for someone like me who is not great with heights, it wasn't scary at all.
If you have time, please enjoy a burger at the café. This time, I had only 30 minutes before the return bus, so I gave up, but it's very delicious.
クアロアでのジップラインは2度目。
前回は約2年前でしたので（コロナ後で日本人がいませんでした）すべて英語でしたが、今回は受付は日本の方でした。
ジップのベースキャンプまでのジープは早口英語ですので、Google翻訳しながら聞きました。
山道を多少歩きますので、スニーカーと動きやすい服装が良いと思います。
かなり高所が苦手な私でも怖くないです。
時間があればカフェでバーガーを召し上がりください。今回は帰りのバスまで30分しかなく諦めましたが、とても美味しいです。

The summit of Mauna Kea at 4,000 meters is absolutely amazing. Aside from the fact that the oxygen is 40% thinner than at sea level, it’s an incredible experience. This is my second time reaching the summit, and I over-prepared, thinking it would be just as cold as last time. However, I realized there is a significant difference between the January ascent and the September ascent, almost like winter and summer. I was lacking information, but I still had a wonderful experience.
なんと言っても、マウナケアー山頂4000ｍ級の登頂は最高です。酸素が下界より40％も薄いことを除けば、すごい体験です。今回で２回目の登頂になりますが、準備をし過ぎて、寒い寒いことだけが、前回の登頂で、今回も絶対寒いと思い、準備万端に出向きましたが、全回の１月登頂と、今回の９月登頂では、冬と夏ぐらいの違いがあるといううことがわかり、情報不足でした。でも素晴らしい体験ができました。

I enjoyed a leisurely ride on horseback, feeling the nature of Hawaii. The ocean is beautiful, but the nature of Kualoa is also stunning.
馬に乗ってのんびりとハワイの自然を感じてきました。
海もきれいですが、クアロアの自然もきれいですよ。
I recommend wearing shoes that you don't mind getting dirty when riding a horse. Especially white shoes tend to get stained with dirt from the saddle.
馬に乗るときの靴は、汚れても良い靴をお勧めします。
特に白い靴は、馬の鞍の汚れがついてしまいます。

I can hardly speak English, but both the reception staff and the instructors were very polite and helped me smoothly enjoy the experience. The instructor was great at getting everyone excited, and it turned out to be a very fun day!

Driving the buggy was fun, and it was great to visit the filming locations of Jurassic World. The two guides were very good and took a lot of photos for us. Since the dust is quite intense, it's better to wear the glasses they provide for rent.
バギーの運転が楽しく、ジュラシックワールドの撮影現場などに行けてことが良かったです。ガイドの2人がとても良くて写真をたくさん撮ってくれました。
砂埃がすごいのでレンタルしてくれる眼鏡をつけたほうがいいです。

Since it's an electric bicycle, climbing hills is easy. I signed up for a two-hour beginner course, but we won't be riding the entire two hours; there will be breaks and explanations from the guide (in English) along the way.
電動自転車なので、登り坂も楽ちんです。
２時間の初心者コースに申し込みましたが、２時間中走るわけではなく、途中、休憩やガイドさんの説明（英語）があります。
If you want to experience Croatia's lunch for yourself, I recommend it over a car tour.

This is my second time visiting Kualoa Ranch. Last time, I participated in a 4WD tour. While it might be fun for the driver, I felt that the passengers didn't have as much excitement. This time, I joined a tour on an E-Mountain Bike, which involved riding electric bicycles. It was a self-guided tour where we explored various locations, including movie filming sites, and the exhilaration of riding through nature was fantastic. Driving was a bit challenging at first, but once I got the hang of it, it became very enjoyable, and I was able to ride comfortably. Next time I come, I would like to try a different attraction.
クアロアランチに行くのは今回で2回目です。前回は４WDを運転して回るツアーに参加しました。これも運転する人は楽しいかもしれませんが、乗ってる人はそんなに感動しない感じがしました。それで、今回参加したツアーがEマウンテンバイクでして、電動自転車に乗って回るツアーです。自分で運転していろんなところを回るツアーでして、映画のロケ地も見て回れて、自然の中をバイクで走るという爽快感が素晴らしかったです。運転も初めは難しかったですが、慣れてきたらとても楽しく、気持ちよく走り切る事が出来ました。また次回来るときは、違うアトラクションに参加したいと思います。
When you go on the tour, most of the explanations are in English, so if you can't understand, you won't know what's being said. I think there are many explanations about the filming locations of movie

My husband and I had a great time in the tour. We were picked up on time and the guide made the trip to the summit entertaining and we learned many different things about Hawaii during that time.
The sunset at the summit is breathtaking and our guide was prepared to take pictures that he later shared with all of us!
It got cold after the sunset…. so be ready. The hot chocolate while stargazing was a very nice addition!
It spun around in a service, and afterwards, I felt like I was car sick. My relative who went with me said they weren't spun around, so I think it depends on the instructor. It was a good experience.
サービス？でグルグル回転してくれて、
終わったあとに、車酔いみたいになりました。

When I jumped, the ground felt too far away, and it didn't seem real. So, it wasn't as scary as I had thought. As I got closer, I felt that the scenery was beautiful.

Driving a four-wheeler while feeling the majestic nature of Hawaii and visiting movie filming locations was great! I love being active, so it was perfect. The staff also took photos for us. My movie-loving partner seemed to really enjoy it.

I recommend wearing clothes that you don't mind getting dirty, as a lot of sand gets on your clothes and belongings!

On the day of the event, I missed my chance to ride a horse. The bus arrived at the lunch spot in Croa on schedule, and we listened to the staff's explanation, but it was hard to understand. Also, buying tickets was way too complicated, and the lockers for valuables were also complicated and took time. I was five minutes late for the 9:30 riding time and was told it was no good. I tried to negotiate, but it didn't work (laughs). However, I was able to change plans last minute and ride a buggy instead, but I still feel regret. It's sad 😭. Maybe the language barrier was a hindrance. Is it just that Hawaii is inflexible and it's my own responsibility? (laughs)
当日 乗馬に乗り損ねえました。バスは予定時間にクロア ランチ場に着き 係り員の説明を聴きましたが 話し解りにくく 又 チケット買うにも 余りにも 複雑すぎで しかも 貴重品入れのロッカーも 複雑で時間かかり 9時半の乗馬時間の手続5分遅れで 駄目 ダメって 言われました えーっ そんな 何とか 言いましたが 駄目でした（笑）けど 急きょ 変更してもらいバギー乗れました けど 悔い残ります 悲しい😭 言葉通じないのが 持たついげいんかも HAWAII 融通効かない 自己責任ですかね（笑）
I really think it's better to research online before experiencing horseback riding. It's such a disappointment to pay a high fee and not be able to ride. I want my money back! (laughs) I wish it could
乗馬体験するまで ネットかで 調べてる 方がいいと つくずく 思いましたし 高い料金払って 乗馬出来ないって 残念過ぎ 金返せって （笑）もっと 簡単にしてもらえないかなぁ

The stargazing tour allowed me to see so many stars with the naked eye that it felt like stardust was falling from the sky. The quality was extremely high, and I was very satisfied. (The photo was taken with my smartphone, so I could see about ten times more stars with my eyes.)
Additionally, the guide's explanations during the journey were clear and entertaining, providing quality entertainment throughout the day. (I was lucky that the bus I happened to be on was exclusively for Japanese guests, so I was able to receive the English tour in Japanese.)
Next time, I would love to join a tour of the recommended spots by the guide.
If I have the opportunity to come back to the Big Island, I would like to participate in the tour again. Thank you very much.
星空ツアーは星屑が空から降ってくるように感じるほどたくさんの星を肉眼で見ることができ、非常にクオリティが高く大満足でした。(写真はスマホで撮ったものなので肉眼では10倍くらい星が見えています。)
また、道中のガイドさんの案内がわかりやすく、かつ面白く1日を通して良質なエンターテイメントを提供していただきました。
(たまたま私の乗車したバスが日本人客のみのバスだったため本来英語のツアーを日本語で対応いただけたのはラッキーでした)

The summit in December was really cold, so it's good to have a neck warmer and Heattech.

Will was an amazing instructor. He was patient, informative and very kind. We felt safe and learned so much. Everyone at the company had exceptional customer service! We look forward to returning soon.
We all had the best fun! Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Oahu.
Our group leaders - Jaryn and Sheldon - shared wonderful cultural stories and history with a great sense of fun. Great for all ages - our group was aged between 15-79 and everyone rated it their most fun activity in Hawaii! Thanks Kualoa Ranch!
I'm glad I participated as I was able to feel the nature of Hawaii up close. The driver and guide shared various stories during the drive and on the way to the waterfall, which was enjoyable. The view from Tantalus Lookout and the lunch sandwiches were also excellent. I also stopped by the office and purchased Kona coffee as a souvenir, which received great reviews.
間近にハワイの自然を感じることができて参加して良かったです。
車中でも滝までの道中でもドライバーさん、ガイドさんが色々お話してくださり楽しかったです。タンタラスの丘からの眺望もランチのサンドイッチも最高でした。

Insect repellent spray is essential.

Thank you for your feedback! We are also delighted to hear that you enjoyed a fun hike while experiencing the natural beauty of Hawaii. It's great to know that you were satisfied with the driver and guide's stories, as well as the picnic-style lunch. We're also thrilled that the Kona coffee you chose as a souvenir was well-received. Our entire staff looks forward to ensuring you have a wonderful time on your next trip to Hawaii!
As you mentioned in your advice, since Manoa is a tropical rainforest, it's a good idea to have insect repellent spray. We will reflect this information on our website. Thank you!

We experienced this as a family of four (husband, wife, and two daughters). We drove from Honolulu in a rental car, and what we thought would be just a drive turned out to be a very meaningful time. It is true that our backsides got a bit sore, but I think it's worth it for an extraordinary experience. The area does have some rain, but if it doesn't rain, it's perfect for enjoying nature.
家族4人（夫婦、娘2人）で体験しました。ホノルルからレンタカーで行きましたがドライブがてらのつもりが大変有意義な時間を過ごすことができました。たしかに少しお尻が痛くなりますが非日常的な時間を過ごすには、良いと思います。

Our tour guides Jess and Ivan were knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We were on the 2 hour UTV Raptor Tour and had a great time. Highly recommend when on Oahu.
If you see Jess. Ask her about the Beatles she is a big fan.
Picked up at the hotel at 8:30.
After about an hour on a large bus, we arrived at Kualoa Ranch!
Since we had only been sightseeing around our hotel in Waikiki, it felt like we had entered a different world with breathtaking views! It was completely different from the moment we arrived!
When we got there, a Japanese attendant explained the meeting place and checked us in in Japanese, so we could participate in the tour with peace of mind.
However, since I chose the afternoon tour, I had quite a bit of free time.
I had enough time to look at souvenirs, buy some, and even take a nap (laughs). My husband was so tired from the previous days that he took a little nap on a bench (laughs).
So, maybe an afternoon tour isn't the best option? It seems like the departure time for the bus going there doesn't change. The return bus seemed to leave around 1 PM.
We departed for our return at 3:45 PM. It felt like we spent the whole day!
The buggy tour stopped at various points, where the tour guide took photos and explained the history and movies.
However, all of this was in English... I couldn't understand the English, so I didn't know why everyone was laughing at certain moments (laughs). Even that is a good memory, but I think it would be even more fun if I understood English!
8:30泊まっているホテルにピックアップ。
1時間くらい大型バスに乗って、クアロアランチへ！
ワイキキのホテル周辺を観光していただけなので、別世界に来たみたいで絶景でした！着いた瞬間から全然違った！
着いたら日本人のアテンドさんが日本語で集合場所などを説明してくれたりチェックインをしてくれていましたので安心してツアーに参加できました。
ただ私は午後開始ツアーを選んだので、かなり時間が余りました。
お土産を見たり買ったりご飯を食べたりしてもお昼寝できるくらいの時間が(笑)夫は連日の疲れでベンチで少し寝てた(笑)
なので午後開始ではなく午前開始ツアーでもいいかも？行きのバスの出発時間は変わらないみたいなので。帰りは13時くらいのバスが出るみたいでした。
私たちは15:45に帰り出発でした。1日使ったって感じ！
バギーのツアーは所々で止まって、ツアーガイドさんが写真を撮ってもらったり、歴史や映画の説明をしてくれました。
ただこれは全部英語だった…英語がわからないのでみんなが笑っているタイミングで何で笑ってるかわかんなかった(笑)それすらもいい思い出ですが、英語がわかればもっと楽しいと思います！

I had a horseback riding experience, but since I had never ridden alone for a long time, I was nervous. However, the horse was smart, and the instructor was kind, which made me feel at ease and enjoy the experience. I was able to feel the ocean, mountains, and the great outdoors, and I had a wonderful time.
乗馬体験はありましたが、1人で長時間乗ることはなかったので緊張しました。しかし、お馬が賢くお姉さんも優しく教えてくださったので安心して楽しむことができました。海！山！大自然を感じることができて素敵な時間を過ごせました。
There is a gap of time from arrival until the tour starts, and from when you return from the tour. Also, during horseback riding, you must leave everything in the locker except for your phone, water,

I had a Cessna flying experience that exceeded my expectations! The pilot was able to communicate in Japanese, which made me feel even more at ease during the experience. Additionally, I felt that everyone’s service, from the pick-up to the waiting time at the office, was excellent. I was a bit anxious about participating alone, but I had no worries at all.
Next time I come to Hawaii, I definitely want to participate in the Cessna flying experience again!

Great guide and really fun! My family and I biked around the ranch. Very beautiful.
I signed up mainly to see the sunset, but unfortunately, due to heavy traffic, the time to enjoy the sunset was shortened. However, the stargazing afterward was wonderful, truly like a natural planetarium, and I was very moved. The guide, Yamapi, was also interesting, and although it was a long travel time, I was able to enjoy it without getting bored. If I have the chance, I would like to participate again and recommend it to my family.
夕焼けをメインで観に行きたく申し込んだが、あいにくの大渋滞で夕焼けを楽しむ時間は短かくなりました。ただその後の星空鑑賞が素晴らしく、まさに天然のプラネタリウムでとても感動しました。ガイドのヤマピーさんの話も面白く、長い移動時間ではあったが飽きずに楽しめました。機会があればまた参加し、家族にも勧めたいと思います。
The summit is quite cold. There are rentals for cold-weather gear, but it would be wise to prepare your own warm clothing and hand warmers as well.

I was extremely nervous due a life long crippling fear of heights, but due to the amazing guides Hillary and Taelen I had the time of my life! They were fun, polite, encouraging and most importantly -professional! They absolutely made the experience the best possible! No matter how much they are being paid - it's not nearly enough!
There is one steep but relatively short hike between platforms. Don't quit there! Just go slow.
I thought it was a long tour for the content, but once I participated, I understood the various measures against altitude sickness. I was able to experience an unexpectedly moving world. The stargazing event was also enjoyable. I forgot to give a tip to the driver! I'm sorry. I'll do it next time I come.
