絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

The height of 4,267 meters was quite high! 高度4267メートルはかなり高かったです!

Reviewed by: ウクレレ

I was a bit anxious about my first skydiving experience, but I enjoyed it without any problems. It was a little chilly when falling, but the view was amazing and it felt really good. What surprised me compared to what I imagined was that the time after the parachute opened was unexpectedly long. The instructor kindly spun us around as a service, but it was scarier than the fall itself, haha. But it was the best experience!

初めてのスカイダイビングで不安もありましたが、問題なく楽しめました。
落ちる時は少し肌寒くて、なにより景色が最高で本当に気持ちよかったです。
やってみて想像と違ったのは、パラシュートが開いてからの時間が意外と長く
インストラクターさんがサービスでくるくる回ったりしてくれたのですが、
落ちる時以上に怖かったです笑
でも最高の経験でした!

Reviewed by: 原田 恵子

First of all, it's unfortunate that I could only fly at a low altitude due to the weather, while my companion was able to fly normally. I would like to challenge myself again next time.

まず、残念なのが私は天候により低空飛行でしか飛べなく、連れはまともに飛行出来ていたので、次こそはまた挑戦してチャレンジしたいと思います。

乗馬体験(0.5~2時間) 2歳から参加OKの子供向けコースやサンセット、貸切ランチ付きなど選べるコースで広大な牧場を満喫!<ガンストック牧場/現地集合>

It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: うりぼう

I checked the travel time and aerial photos of the ranch on Google Maps to familiarize myself with the geography, then entered the address into the GPS of the rental car and headed there. I arrived in about an hour and a half without getting lost. I drove along the coastal road, and after entering an unpaved road marked by signs, I came to a parking area that also serves as a square on the left. On the right side of the square, there are restrooms, a handwashing area, playground equipment, and about 20 goats.

In front of the square, there is a small hut where I parked my car on the right side and handed my voucher to the person inside the hut to check in. To the left of the hut, there were about 10 horses tied up, along with free-roaming donkeys, dogs, and a rooster wandering around, which came close enough to pet while waiting for the start. I agreed to and signed the English waiver (which states that horseback riding carries risks such as falling, and the ranch is not responsible for them) and chose a helmet. The helmet has a dial at the back for size adjustment.

A man from the ranch approached me and mentioned that they take paid photos during the ride, so I signed up. It was about $40 for a set of two. I made the payment by credit card on the spot, provided my email address, and received a receipt that included a note saying, "Your photos are in the Scene C folder from 7/28. Please enter the password ◯◯ to open and download them," along with the address of the Gunstock Ranch website, where dozens of photos were uploaded later.

We were on a 90-minute course, and both my group and the other participants were families with children aged 7 to 9, totaling 8 people. Two female staff members guided us in a line at a leisurely pace. At a hill where we could see the ocean, we were able to hand over our cameras to have photos taken. After that, we returned down a small hill.

Although no Japanese was spoken, we were able to communicate with basic middle school English. The instructions for riding, turning, moving forward, and stopping were simple. The horses were calm and followed commands well, but occasionally they would stop completely, and when I was struggling, they would relieve themselves.

Also, I highly recommend wrapping a scarf around your neck, as it can get sunburned during the long ride. I couldn't help my child when they were scratching their neck from the sunburn.

After the ride, each child received a sugar cube at the hut to feed the horses, and the horses licked their palms. (There is soap and napkins available at the handwashing area.) It seemed that 90 minutes was long for the children, but it was a great experience since riding alone is not something they can do in Japan. They provided smaller horses for the kids, and there was no sense of danger.

At the end, I received a discount card for the next visit. It was a wonderful experience to leisurely stroll around the spacious ranch on horseback.

グーグルマップで所要時間と牧場の航空写真を確認して地理を頭に入れておき、レンタカーでナビに住所を入力して向かいました。1時間半位で迷うことなくたどり着けました。海岸沿いの道を進み、看板を目印に未舗装の道に入ってしばらく進むと左手に駐車場を兼ねた広場に出ます。広場の右手にはトイレ、手洗い場、遊具があり、20匹ほどのやぎ?も飼われています。
広場正面に小さな小屋がありその右手に車を止め、小屋にいる方にバウチャーを渡してチェックインしました。
小屋の左手には馬が10頭くらい繋がれていて、他に放し飼いのロバ、犬、おんどりがウロウロ、近くに来るので撫でたりして開始を待つ間に、英語表記の免責説明書(乗馬には落馬等危険が伴うこと、牧場がそれに責任を負わないこと等)に同意してサインし、ヘルメットを選びました。ヘルメットは後頭部にダイヤルがありサイズ調整できます。
牧場の男性が「有料で乗馬中の写真を撮っている」と話しかけてきたので申し込みます。二人セットで40ドル位でした。その場でクレジット決裁、メールアドレスを伝えると領収書が届き、その中に「あなたの写真は7/28のシーンCフォルダにあります。パスワード◯◯を入力して開きダウンロードしてください」と、ガンストックランチのホームページアドレスが記載されており、後日写真が数十枚アップされていました。
私達は90分コースでしたが、他の参加者も私達も7〜9才の子供がいるファミリーで総勢8名、二人の女性スタッフが前後について一列になってカポカポのんびり進みました。途中海が見える丘では自分達のカメラを渡して写真を撮ってもらえます。その後小高い丘を下って帰りました。
日本語は全く通じませんが、中学英語程度で意志疎通はできました。乗馬方法、曲がる、進む、止まる、の指示も簡単でした。馬はおとなしくよく指示に従いますが時々全く動かずゴズ困っていたら大量のおしっこをしたりうんちをしたり。
あと、長時間首筋が日に焼けるので首筋にスカーフを巻いておくことをぜひオススメします。子供が日に焼けて首を掻いていてもそばに行って助けてやれなかったので。
乗馬が終わると子供は小屋で一人ひとつ角砂糖をもらい、馬に食べさせて手のひらをペロンと舐められていました。(手洗い場に石鹸もナフキンもあります。)
子供に90分は長かったようですが、引馬でなく一人で乗る体験は日本ではできないのでよかったです。子供には小さめの馬を用意してくれたし、危険を感じることはありませんでした。
次回割引のカードを最後にもらいました。
広々とした牧場内をのんびり馬で散歩、素敵な体験でした。

  • 40ドルで撮影してもらった写真。大人のヘルメット着用は自由です。

ノースショア・シャーク・アドベンチャー 迫力満点!至近距離で野生のサメを見学 <送迎可>

Observing sharks attracted to a mysterious can from the boat. 謎の缶(?)に食いつくサメを船上から見学

Reviewed by: KAWAMAX

We participated as a family of five, with two children and an infant. My wife and the infant did not go into the cage but observed from the boat plan. You can see the sharks well even from the boat. When the captain threw a mysterious can with a rope into the sea at the shark point, the sharks were attracted to it and gathered around. We were also allowed to throw in the can, so my wife and the kids got to do it several times.

As I mentioned in another review, the cage plan can be quite shaky, so I think it's better for those who get seasick to choose the boat plan and observe from the deck.

夫婦+子供2人+乳児1人の5人家族で参加して、妻と乳児はケージに入らずにボートプランで船の上から見学しました。
船上からでもサメはよく見えます。船長さんがサメポイントでヒモのついた謎の缶(?)を海に投げ入れると、サメたちが缶におびき寄せられてワラワラと寄ってきます。この缶を投げ入れるのもやらせてもらえるので、妻も子供も何度もやらせてもらってました。

もう一個のレビューで書きましたが、ケージプランは揺れがかなりしんどいので、酔いやすい人はボートプランで船上から見学するのがいいと思います

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

I met the sharks!!!

Reviewed by: Mahalo

The North Shore Shark Adventures was a very neat and wonderful experience. The boat ride out to the shark cage took about 15-20min. The crew members really stressed about safety first and were thorough about directions. They even had a sense of humor, which makes everything better. When we reached the shark cage the crew members separated all the costumers in to two different groups and we were escorted into the shark cage that was floating in the ocean. Being in the shark cage was kind of rough. The waves would rock/bob the cage from side to side and up and down. You really had to hang on to the cage bars to obtain stability. I personally wrapped my legs and arms around the shark cage ladder, which I found to be helpful. As soon as I stuck my head under water what I saw was absolutely amazing. 15-20 sharks swimming and circling the cage, each shark was at least 6-8 feet long. It was so peaceful and serene to see these sharks in their natural habitat swimming freely. Just a quick suggestion that if you plan on swimming with the sharks you may want to schedule this event early on in your trip because cancellations may occur due to the oceans unpredictability. For safety reasons they may cancel your shark adventures but they will call you in advanced to let you know. I suggested that if you are driving to the North Shore you call them to ask about cancellations before you make the trip up north.

The waves were amazing. 波がすごかった

Reviewed by: KAWAMAX

I participated with my 9-year-old son and 7-year-old daughter, while my wife and baby watched from the boat. All the other participants were Americans except for our group.

After about 15 to 20 minutes of being rocked by the boat, we arrived at the shark cage. I think we had come quite far out to sea.

Finally, we entered the cage to meet the sharks, but the waves were so strong that it was difficult to observe calmly.

My son and daughter were overwhelmed by the waves and quickly retired back to the boat, leaving me to see the sharks alone.

I was able to see the sharks up close, but due to the waves, I bumped my head against the cage and collided with others, which was quite tough.

On the way back, both I and the other participants didn't seem very energetic, including myself.

It might be better if the cage were a bit larger or if there were fewer participants at a time, but I think those who are prone to seasickness should carefully consider participating.

9歳の息子と7歳の娘、37歳の自分の3人で参加。妻と赤ん坊は船の上から見学しました。
参加者は自分たちグループ以外は全員アメリカ人でした。

船に揺られること15〜20分でサメケージに到着。けっこう沖の方まで来てたと思います。

いよいよケージに入ってサメとご対面しますが、サメよりも波がすごくて、落ち着いて観察するのがむずかしかったです。

息子と娘は波にやられて早々にリタイアして船に戻り、自分ひとりでサメを見ました。

いちおうサメは間近で見られましたが、波のせいでケージに頭をぶつけたり、他の人ともぶつかったり、かなりしんどかったです。

帰りの船では自分も含め、他の参加者もあまり元気がなかったですw

もう少しケージを広くするか、一回の参加者を少なくするかすれば多少マシになるかもしれませんが、酔いやすい人は参加は慎重に検討したほうがいいと思います。

It was an educational and entertaining day.

Reviewed by: Centeio family

It was very educational and entertaining. We especially enjoyed the Sumoa, New Zealand, and Tahitian cultures. The water parade of cultures was also excellent. It was exztremely hot the day we went. The only disappointing thing was the Island Buffet. The selections were limited. We expected more of a Hawaiian menu. It was mash potatoes, pork, beef, a very tasteless fish. There were no vegetables excepct for the salad bar which was limited in itself. The only fruit was pineapple and papaya. The ice cream machine ran out and it took them so long to get it operating that people just gave up.

This time, only my husband flew. He was really moved by the wonderful experience. The tip for the person flying with you is $20. There were various opinions about this, but personally, I believe that the person flying with you is someone you entrust your life to. It’s only natural to pay, and it is definitely worth it. I hope everyone will pay it.

今回夫だけが、飛びました。本当に素晴らしい体験が出来たと感動していました。一緒に飛んでくれる人へのチップが20ドル。これに対して色んな意見がありましたが、私的には共に飛んでくれる人。命を預ける人です。支払って当然だし、またその価値が十分あります。ぜひに皆払って欲しいです。

The service is the worst. サービスは最低

Reviewed by: えのモン

The plan started at 9 AM. We gathered before 6 AM, and everything was finished around 9:30 AM. However, we were left waiting, and we could board the return shuttle only at 12:30 PM, nearly three hours later. There’s nothing around the airport, so we just had to wait idly. It might be fine for those with a flexible schedule, but it’s not suitable for regular tourists. In the end, we ended up returning with a team that arrived before noon, and I don’t understand why we had to wake up early. If possible, it would be better to come by rental car instead of relying on the pickup.

Also, it says that if you don’t reach 14,000 ft, it’s free, but that’s a lie. They use the weather as an excuse (which may be true), and you are made to jump from 8,000 ft, receiving only the difference in price from the 8,000 ft plan as a refund. There’s nothing mentioned about this on the official website of the operating company. Anyway, it’s fine for those who don’t care about the height as long as they can jump, but it’s better not to overtrust the "absolute guarantee" claims.

朝9時スタートのプランでした。6時前に集合し、すべて終了したのは9時半頃。
しかし、それから放置され、帰りのシャトルに乗れたのは3時間近くたった12時30分。空港の周りは何もないのでひたすらボーッと待つだけです。スケジュールに余裕のある人ならいいですが、普通の観光客には不向きです。結局、昼前に着いたチームと一緒に帰ることになり、早く起きた理由がわかりません。可能なら、ピックアップではなくレンタカーで自ら来た方が良いです。
また、高度14000ftに達しなかったら無料と書いてありますが嘘です。天候の理由にして(実際そうかもしれませんが)8000ftからジャンプさせられ、8000ftプランとの差額しか返金しません。催行会社の公式Webにも、そのようなことは一切書いてありません。とにかく、高さは気にしないから飛べればいい、という人はいいですが、「絶対保証」の謳い文句を過信しない方が良いです。

Went skydiving for the first time on our honeymoon and it couldn't have been a better experience than what we had! We had Patrick and Andy as our instructors and they were full of personality and very calm- which really put us at ease. We loved them so much we each tipped them $50. We're hooked now and actually contemplated going again while in Hawaii but decided we've spent enough and going to try the other side of the spectrum=skydiving back home in Colorado!! Researched a lot before going and this place by far had some of the best reviews! Best deal I found in research was this site - literally spent hours on Hawaii discount sites!

Mountain leisure in Hawaii ハワイで山のレジャー

Reviewed by: Cieline

Since I had only played in the ocean in Hawaii, I was interested in horseback riding this time and tried it for the first time. I participated in a one-hour horseback riding session with a group of about 15 people, mostly Japanese, riding in a line. We watched a safety video, chose our horses one by one, received a brief explanation of how to operate them, and then set off.

Along the way, the horses sometimes stopped to graze or for bathroom breaks. The view of Kualoa Beach and the mountains from the horse was amazing! Since it was a sport, my butt started to hurt towards the end, and I found one hour to be just right.

Since check-in was at 11:15, I had breakfast in Kailua after picking up a rental car in the morning and headed to Kualoa. The roads were easy to navigate, and it felt great to drive along the beach.

I arrived early, but there were dining options and souvenir shops, and I was able to see the horses up close and take photos, so it was good to arrive early. There was also a stray cat that was very cute.

ハワイでは海でしか遊んだ事が無かったので、今回乗馬に興味があり、初めて挑戦しました。
1時間の乗馬に参加し、グループはほぼ日本人で15人くらい1列になって山馬に乗ってを歩いて行きました。安全のビデオを見て、1人ずつ馬を選んでもらい、簡単な操作の説明を受けて出発しました。
途中馬が道草を食ったり、トイレの為に止まる事もあります。馬から見えるクアロアビーチや山の様子は最高でした‼︎
スポーツですので最後の方でお尻が痛くなり、私は1時間で丁度良かったです。

11:15チェックインという事でしたので、朝からレンタカーでカイルアで朝ごはんを食べ、クアロアへ向かいました。道も分かりやすく、ビーチ沿いに走っていくのでとても気持ち良かったです。
早めに着きましたが、食堂やお土産やさんがあり、そして馬を間近で見て写真撮影などが出来るので早めに着いて良かったです。
野良猫?がおりとても可愛らしかったです。

絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

This may be off-topic, but... お門違いですが・・・

Reviewed by: vwbora

It may be inappropriate to express dissatisfaction with the operating company in a review on VELTRA, but...

The skydiving experience itself was quite enjoyable. My instructor, Relyx, provided clear explanations in English and some basic Japanese, which made me very satisfied.

However, this "Pacific Skydiving Center" is not acceptable...

On that day (June 20), it seems there was rain and cloudy weather early in the morning, and we were delayed, with our flight starting around 1 PM instead of the scheduled 11 AM. While that is understandable...

We were supposed to go on separate flights for 2100m and 4267m, but I believe we were put on the 2100m flight...

I timed it, and we only had 20 seconds before the parachute opened...

Still, the scenery and experience were amazing.

But my biggest complaint starts here.

By 1:30 PM, everything was finished, but we waited and waited for the return vehicle, and it never arrived...

I asked the reception staff twice, and they told me it would be coming soon, so we waited.

After waiting until 4 PM, the reception desk closed, and the return vehicle left without us.

There were four other Japanese people with us, and it was clearly strange, so when we asked again, they said, "We announced it near the vehicle, but since there was no response, we left."

They said this without any sense of wrongdoing.

As others have mentioned, there was no apology for this.

In the end, we returned to Waikiki after 5 PM...

Although the skydiving itself was a lot of fun, I was left with such dissatisfaction due to the treatment from the operating company...

It made me realize the level of hospitality in Japan, but this place was terrible.

VELTRA の体験談に催行会社の不満を書くのは違うかもしれませんが・・・

スカイダイビング自体は、かなり楽しかったです。
relyx というインストラクターで、わかりやすい英語と、カタコトの日本語で丁寧にレクチャーしてくれ、かなり満足しました。

・・が、この
「パシフィックスカイダイビングセンター」

という店?会社がいただけません・・・

その日(6/20)は、早朝 雨天曇天だったらしく、時間がおしていて、11時開始が13時くらいのフライトとなりました。
それは仕方ないことなのですが・・

2100m と、 4267m とで別便で行くのですが、おそらく自分たちは2100mの方に乗せられたんだと思います・・

時間を計りましたが、パラシュート開くまで20秒しかありませんでした・・

それでも景色、体感は最高でしたが。

一番の不満はここからです

13時半には全て終わってたのですが、帰りの車が待てど暮らせど出ない・・

受付の人に二回も尋ねたのに「すぐ出る」といわれ、待機

16時まで待っていたら、受付窓口が閉まり、
帰りの車が何の音沙汰もなしに、自分たちが乗ってないまま出発。

他に日本人4人居ましたが、さすがにオカシイということで、改めて尋ねると

「車付近でアナウンスしたけど、何の反応もなかったので出発した」

と、悪気もなく言ってきました。

他の方もおっしゃってるように、そこに謝罪はありません。

結局ワイキキに帰ったのが17時過ぎ・・

スカイダイビング自体はかなり楽しかったのに、

催行会社の待遇でこうも不満が残るとは・・

日本のおもてなしの待遇を改めて知ることにもなりましたが、この店はひどかったです。

Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, we sincerely apologize that your experience did not meet your expectations.

We have shared your feedback with the tour operator. Upon confirming the altitude for skydiving, we found that you participated at the requested height of 4,267 meters. There are two shuttle services available; those who participated in the 9 AM session used the first shuttle, while those who participated in the 11 AM session used the second shuttle. Therefore, we appreciate your understanding that the waiting time may be longer depending on the completion time of the skydiving.

Additionally, we sincerely apologize for the lack of guidance from our local staff regarding the return shuttle, which may have caused you discomfort.

Based on your valuable feedback, we will strive to improve our services in the future. Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us.

Oahu Island Guided Tour, Waimea Waterfall Swim & Dole Pineapple Farm

Awesome adventure, great guide

Reviewed by: Marcos A Bonilla

Grand Circle tour was great, the guide has a complete knowledge of the island and its history, altough there is not enough time to see the entire Dole Plantation at least it gives you the opportunity to enjoy a good pineapple treat, in general a must in any Hawaii vacation
