Hawaii Polo Oceanfront Trail Rides - North Shore Horseback Riding Sunset Tour

Awesome!

Reviewed by: Mike and Bri

We went on the sunset private ride and it was amazing. My fiance and I would definitely go back here next time we're on Oahu. Our guide was very chill and the horses were gentle. The view was amazing at sunset and besides my horse stopping to eat all the bushes (that was my fault for not taking charge) everything went smoothly. 10 out of 10 would do again!

Honolulu Soaring North Shore Scenic Airplane Flights - Piloted Glider Tours in Oahu

Mr. Bill's Glider Ride

Reviewed by: The Jim man

I would highly recommend taking a glider ride up on the North Shore of Oahu to everyone. It was a bucket list item for me and did not disappoint. Very professional staff and my pilot Sean was exceptional. He let me take the controls for about five minutes of the ride. The views are spectacular. Very affordable and the best 20-30 minutes you will spend in the Islands. Be sure and take a Go Pro camera or do I as did and rent one from the glider folks. I have a great DVD of my entire flight.

ノースショア（ハレイワ）観光　ハレイワタウンで3時間の自由散策＋ドールプランテーション！海辺の絶景を楽しめる乗馬付き(70分)プランあり＜1日／送迎付き＞

Moving and enjoyable! 感動♪堪能♪

Reviewed by: まいまい

The reasons I participated in this activity were to get Happy Haleiwa merchandise, see sea turtles up close, and eat rainbow shaved ice and garlic shrimp♡ I was able to achieve all of that! (∗❛ั௦❛ั∗)

The road was straightforward, making it very easy to navigate, and above all, our driver Jimmy introduced various things in Japanese, which was really great!

I learned so much about Hawaii that I didn't know before♪

At the beach, I felt relaxed watching surfers riding the waves and families enjoying the ocean. It was just so beautiful‼︎ I saw a sea turtle basking in the sun on the sandy beach, with a shell that looked like a rock♪ I was moved to see it so close! There were also so many delicious gourmet options, and I thoroughly enjoyed Haleiwa!

However, it was disappointing that traffic reduced our free time more and more ( ˚᷄⌓̉˚᷅)

But I highly recommend it!

このアクティビティに参加した理由は、ハッピーハレイワちゃんグッズをGETすること、海ガメを近くでみること、レインボーかき氷やガーリックシュリンプを食べること♡
全て実現できましたー(∗❛ั௦❛ั∗)

道も一本道なためすごくわかりやすかったのと、何より運転手であるジミーが日本語でいろいろ紹介していただいたコトがすごくよかったです！

ハワイについて初めて知ったコトばかりでした♪

ビーチは、サーファーが波乗りをしてたりファミリーが海水浴をしてたりのんびりした気持ちになれました。とにかくすごくキレイ‼︎
砂浜に、岩のような甲羅を背負った海ガメが日向ぼっこしてました♪
すごく近くでみれたので感動！
美味しいグルメもたくさんあってハレイワを堪能でしました！

ただ、渋滞するとフリータイムがどんどんけずられてしまうのが残念でした ( ˚᷄⌓̉˚᷅)

でもオススメです！

Reviewed by: keke

I participated with my two daughters. Unlike the cheerful atmosphere of Waikiki, I thought, "Ah, I want to live here forever!" (Though that's impossible…) It was full of nature, and we relaxed.

In Haleiwa, we had to coordinate the timing between the horseback riding group and the beach group, which resulted in about 30 minutes in the morning and a 40-minute break after riding. It's a shame we couldn't explore the town slowly. However, we were able to have lunch at Mackey's.

For horseback riding, we had to wait about 40 minutes during the lunch break with the riding club members…? My daughter, who is usually scared of dogs, managed to ride without any issues and followed at the back. However, my horse, perhaps due to compatibility issues, kept trying to bite my feet and lower its head to eat grass, making me almost fall off!!!

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 view is the best, surpassing the pain. 痛みも超えて最高の眺め

Reviewed by: よしやん

It was quite scary when one person after another fell, but once I started flying, the excitement was incredible and I had a lot of fun. The only downside was that the buckle in the crotch area hit my testicles through my pants and it was painful, but overall, the people who jumped with me and the cameraman were cheerful and made it enjoyable.

一人また一人と落ちて行った時はかなり怖かったですが、飛んでからは興奮の方が凄くて、楽しかったです。ただ股の所の留め具がズボン越しに睾丸に当たって痛かったのが唯一の汚点ですが、全体的には一緒に飛んでくれる人もカメラマンも陽気で楽しませてくれました。

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＞

It was amazing, but unfortunately, I couldn't take any photos... What a shame. 最高でしたが、写真が撮れていなかった・・・残念

Reviewed by: ケンケンパパ

After reading this experience, I mustered the courage to sign up, and it was definitely the right decision. Normally, I can't handle roller coasters and I have a fear of heights, but this was completely different. I believe the sense of security I felt came from reading this review, which made me feel no fear at all.

Since I opted for a rental car instead of shuttle service, I arrived after 9 AM and found that the group with shuttle service had already arrived, so I had to wait until about 10:30 for my dive. During that time, we only watched a simple DVD, which might seem a bit lackluster, but I knew from this review that such a level of knowledge was sufficient, so I didn't feel anxious.

When it was finally my turn to board the plane and dive, I was filled with excitement. Since I was last in line on the plane, I had the chance to enjoy the scenery and watch others jump out. At the moment of the dive, I was instructed to lift my chin and was pushed back, so I didn't look down when I jumped. I didn't feel the fear of jumping into empty space; it felt like an immediate experience of weightlessness from free-falling.

I signed up for the DVD and photos as an additional option, but unfortunately, none of the photos were taken, so I deducted one star. Additionally, the cameraman came close during the free fall and held my hand for a while, which prevented me from seeing the surrounding scenery, which was a bit disappointing.

After the parachute opened, the cameraman needed to land first to capture the scenery and our landing moment, so we descended slowly.

On a windy day, there might be severe swaying, but the descent was at a level of rolling for the sake of the view and a bit of thrill, so I didn't experience any motion sickness.

Regarding tips, after landing, we were immediately taken to the tip box area, where we were prompted to pay tips into boxes for each instructor and cameraman. I think it’s better to pay the cameraman's tip after checking the photos and video, unlike the instructor. In the viewing room, we watched the footage, and then paid for the options at the counter, where I was informed that no photos were taken. Since multiple people's data was displayed in the viewing room, I thought mine was just not playing, but I learned at the final payment that there was a shooting error. It would be wise to confirm that before heading to the tip box area. I ended up tipping generously in my high spirits after landing, but later felt I had overpaid the cameraman.

If you go by rental car, you can complete your payment and leave right away, but those with shuttle service seemed to wait around after their dive until the bus to Waikiki, which only departs once a day after 12 PM. To make the most of your time, it’s best to go by rental car and enter around 8:30 AM before the shuttle group arrives.

この体験談を見て勇気をだして申し込みましたが、大正解でした。
普段はジェッタコースター系も乗れないし、高所恐怖症でもあったのですが、
これは全くの別物でした。
この安心感もほぼこの体験談を読んでいたことで、全く恐怖感を感じなかったからだと思います。

送迎なしにしてレンタカーで行きましたので、9時過ぎに到着し、既にバス送迎付組が到着していたので、その後でのダイブとなりましから10時半ごろまで待ちました。
その間簡単なDVDを見るだけでしたので、いい加減に感じるところかもしれませんが
この体験談で、そんな知識レベルで十分であることを知っていましたので、不安に感じませんでした。

いざ順番になり飛行機に乗り込みダイブするまで、どちらかというとワクワク感でいっぱいでした。その機内での順番が最後だったので、ゆっくり景色を見たり、どんどん飛び出していくのを見てからでした。ダイブの瞬間は顎を上にあげるようにと、おでこを後ろに押されるので、下を見ていない瞬間に飛び出すので、何もない空間に飛び出す恐怖も感じることはなく、いきなりフリーフォールによる無重力体験のようでした。

追加オプションでDVDと写真を申し込んだのですが、残念ながらその写真が全く撮れていなかったので★を1つマイナスとしました。
また、そのカメラマンがフリーフォール中に近づいてきて、しばらくの間手をつないでくるのですが、そのことで周りの景色が見れなかったのも少し残念です。

パラシュートを開いてからは、景色を見せるためや、こちらの着地の瞬間を撮影するためにカメラマンを先に着地させる必要があるので、ゆっくりと降下していきます。

おそらく風の強い日だと横揺れがひどいのかもしれませんが、景色のためと少しのスリルのためにローリングしながらの降下というレベルでしたので、乗り物酔いという感覚は出ませんでした。

■チップについて
着地後は、すぐにチップ箱コーナーに連れて行かれ、インストラクター及びカメラマンのところの各人の名前の箱にチップの支払いを促されますが、インストラクターは別として、カメラマンのチップの支払いは、写真とビデオの確認してからでいいと思います。
試写室で映像を見てその後カウンターでオプションの代金支払いとなりますが、その時に写真が撮れていなかったと説明されました。試写室では複数の人のデータが次々映し出されますので、自分のものが再生されていないだけで撮れている思っていましたが、最後の受付での支払い時に撮影ミスと説明されましたので、そこを確認してからチップ箱コーナーに行き、支払うほうが賢明です。
自分は、着地後のハイテンションのままチップをはずんだのですが、後からカメラマンに対しては払いすぎたと感じてしまいました。
チップコーナーには連れて行かれますが、すぐにその場を離れていきますので、ゆっくり後からでも支払いはできます。

■レンタカーで行くとすぐに支払完了で帰れますが、バス送迎付組は早く来てもダイブ後は1日1回の12時過ぎのワイキキ方面バスが出るまで退屈そうに待っていました。
時間を有効に使うにはレンタカーで行き、バス送迎付組組到着前の8時半ごろエントリーがベストでないでしょうか。

Wonderful experience! 素晴らしい体験！

Reviewed by: 彩り夏子

This was my third time in Hawaii, and I finally got to go skydiving! It was incredibly fun!!!

I filled out the paperwork in the car and then fell asleep until we arrived at the center. Once we got there, we watched a safety video and waited for our turn. When I requested photos, a photographer joined us and started filming even before we jumped. (They can take both photos and videos.)

We took a small plane and went higher than I expected, and then we dropped in an instant. It's a shame that there weren't many photos with me looking at the camera, as I couldn't see where the photographer was. But the guide was definitely looking at the camera, which was funny.

Once the parachute opened, there was a detailed explanation of what we could see, and the beautiful scenery spread out before us.

After landing, they showed the videos in order, and my friends and I had a good laugh while waiting for the footage. After checking the video, I decided to buy it too! (But in the end, I just got the photos.)

We had to wait until noon for the return bus, so there was quite a bit of waiting time, but it was enjoyable to watch others jump and land♪

If I have the chance to go again, I would definitely like to participate!

It's simply wonderful!! I wasn't scared at all. Even those who are afraid of heights will have their fears blown away by the amazing views. The scenery is truly breathtaking, and it liberates both body and mind; it was the best experience of my life.

Also, the instructors (Montana) and the photographer (Maynard) on the day were very friendly and reliable. The staff worked well as a team. The Japanese guide was also kind.

The photos and videos are truly fantastic, so I definitely recommend purchasing them as a package for those who will be flying. If you say a few words with a smile to the photographer in advance and express your preferences for angles, I feel they might provide a little extra service. That was my experience. Just a tip!

素晴らしいの一言です！！私はまったくこわくなかったです。高いところが恐い人も、景色の素晴らしさに恐怖が吹き飛ぶと思います。本当に素晴らしい景色ですし、身も心も解放されます、人生で一番の経験でした。

また当日のインストラクター(Montanaさん)とカメラマン(Maynardさん)がとてもフレンドリーで頼もしいです。スタッフのチームプレーがうまく取れてる感じでした。日本語ガイドさんも親切です。

そして写真、ビデオも本当に素晴らしい内容なので、飛ばれる方は絶対セットで購入されることをお勧めします。
あらかじめカメラマンに一言ふたこと笑顔で声をかけて、写真のアングルとか要望すれば少し奮発サービスしてくれる気がします。私がそうでした。ご参考までに！

We participated at the end of August with our 3-year-old and 1-year-old. We rode in a van with three families, a total of 12 people. The air conditioning in the vehicle was comfortable.

The guide was Japanese, so everything was in Japanese.

I was thrilled to see the trees, and at the Dole Plantation, the kids were excited to ride the pineapple train. We were on the train for about 30 minutes, which felt quite long.

They mentioned we might not see any turtles, but we were able to see a few swimming turtles, which got my 3-year-old daughter excited. For lunch, we had shrimp from Markey's! It was delicious! The Matsumoto Shave Ice was super crowded, but it was definitely tasty!

It was a tour that I can confidently recommend to my satisfied friends. Thank you!

Horseback riding on the North Shore was truly amazing. The only downside was the driver's poor attitude. I was told the car's air conditioning was not working well, but it was completely ineffective, making the environment inside the car terrible. I believe proper maintenance is the bare minimum of good manners. If you're in the service industry, I expect a proper response.

ノースショアでの乗馬は、本当に最高でした。ただただ残念なのが運転手の愛想が悪かったことが残念です。車のエアコンの調子が悪いと言われていたが…全然エアコンが効いておらず車内の環境は、最悪でした。ちゃんとメンテナンスをしておくことが最低限のマナーだと思いますよ。客商売ならきちんとした対応を望みます。

I participated with my children, who are in the fourth and third grades. My child wanted to try horseback riding, and after researching, this was the only option available for an 8-year-old. Besides our family, there was only one other family, and they listened to various requests. However, although it was advertised as a 90-minute horseback riding session, it actually lasted only 60 minutes. I thought we would have a bit more time for North Shore sightseeing, but there was hardly any time left. Our guide, Nakama, was very polite and taught us a lot, but it felt a bit different from what I had expected. However, the horseback riding was great.

小４と小３の子供と３人で参加しました。子供が乗馬をやりたいと言い、調べたところ８歳の子供でもできるのはこれしかなかったので。うちの家族以外はもう１家族のみで、いろいろ要望を聞いてくださいました。ただ、乗馬は９０分とあったのに実際は６０分。ノースショア観光ももう少しできるのかと思っていましたが、ほとんど時間がありませんでした。ガイドのナカマさんは、いろいろ教えてくださってていねいでしたが、ちょっと思っていたことと違う感じでした。でも乗馬はよかったです。

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＞

Skydiving スカイダイビング

Reviewed by: ゆたちゃん

First of all, the diving itself was a very enjoyable experience. However, the following points should be noted by those who will participate in the future.

【Complaint】
The website lists a local phone number for inquiries, so when I contacted them in Hawaii on the day, I received a completely careless response. When I asked for the department and name, I was told, "I'm just an interpreter!" and was hung up on. The operator should be contacted immediately and should be fired before it becomes a major issue. It was extremely rude and completely unhelpful.

【Points to Note】
1. Pay attention to the weather. In summer, due to typhoons and wind conditions, there are many days when you may not be able to fly even if you have made a reservation. We barely managed to fly.
2. Pay attention to the transportation. If the pickup is 10 minutes late, they will leave without notice. Additionally, the return time is completely unpredictable, and we had to wait for quite a long time. We waited for nearly 3 hours. Even then, there was no sign of them coming to pick us up, so I requested to drive if they could lend me the keys, and only then did they reluctantly send a van to pick us up with 10 tour participants. If I hadn't made that request, how long would we have waited? By the way, it takes nearly 2 hours by car from Waikiki, and the actual diving time is about 4 minutes.
3. Pay attention to the contract. Before flying, we were made to sign a contract stating that we would not complain even if we died, which was very favorable only to the organizer. This information was not included in the tour details and could only be understood on-site. Even if there was a mistake on the part of the operator in case of an accident, it was a one-sided waiver of responsibility. Moreover, we were not given a copy of the signed document. If a participant were a lawyer, they would likely give up on the experience on-site.
4. The tips are too high. In addition to the tour fee, we were required to pay $20 each to the person who flew with us, as well as to a photographer and a pilot we did not request, totaling $60. Isn't tipping supposed to be optional?

The participants were mostly Japanese in their early twenties, and I, at 49, was quite rare. I was more scared of the contract than the diving itself. The 20-year-old girl I experienced it with was happily satisfied.

まず、ダイビング自体は非常に楽しい良い経験でした。しかし、下記事項はこれから参加される方はよく留意してください。
【クレーム】
HPに現地電話での問合せ先がのっているので当日ハワイで連絡したら、全くいい加減な対応で部署と名前を問ったところ、私は単なる通訳だ！と逆ギレされ、一方的に切られた。運営者は直ちに連絡して大きなトラブルになる前にクビにした方がいい。失礼極まりなく何の役にも立たない。
【留意点】
①天候に注意。夏は台風など風の影響で、申し込んでも現場迄行って飛べない日が多々ある。私達はギリなんとか飛べた。
②送迎に注意。迎えは時間10分遅れると連絡なく行ってしまう。また、帰りは全く時間読めず、かなりの時間待たされる。私達は3時間近く待たされた。それでも送る気配ないので、車かしてくれたら運転するよと鍵の受渡を依頼して、初めてOKと苦笑って送りのワゴンを出しツアー参加者10名乗せ動いた。申立しなかったら、何時間待たされたのだろう？因みにワイキキから片道2時間近く車でかかり、ダイビング自体の飛行時間は4分程。
③契約書に注意。飛ぶ前に、死んでも一切文句言わない、などのかなり主催者だけ都合いい契約書にサインさせられ、しないと飛べない。その事はツアー内容に情報が全くなく、現地でしか分からない。もし事故が運営側でミスあった場合でも責任放棄の一方的内容。しかもサインした書面控えはこちらに渡されない。参加者の職業が弁護士なら、必ず現地で体験を諦めるであろう。
④チップ高すぎ。ツアー費用以外に一緒に飛んでくれる方だけでなく、頼んでいないカメラマン、パイロットと各20ドル合計60ドル支払を必須求められる。チップは任意支払ではないのか？

参加者は9割20歳前半未満の日本人、私は49歳で珍しく、ダイビングより契約書内容が怖かった。
一緒に体験した20歳の彼女は、喜んで満足げであった。

There was an accident, but... アクシデントはあったが・・・

Reviewed by: ばすお

Although I arrived early at the location with a rental car, there was a road closure due to an accident just 1 kilometer away, and I couldn't make it on time for my reservation. I was unsure when the closure would be lifted, and in my frustration, I called the phone number listed on the voucher. I explained the situation, but due to my poor English, they initially thought I was lost. Eventually, I conveyed that it was a road closure, but they told me they couldn't help since I wasn't speaking to the reservation department, which made me realize the drawbacks of online booking. I had no choice but to turn back for a while, and when I returned later, the road was open. I went to the location and explained the situation, and after consulting with the intermediary company over the phone, they agreed to let me join the next session. (By the way, I was told that cancellations were not possible.)

The horseback riding was with two Japanese families and an Australian family. The instructions were given in very fast English, but it seemed manageable even for elementary school children. They provided helmets, so there was no need for riding hats, but since the path went through narrow trees, long pants are essential. I wore a short-sleeved shirt, but since branches might scratch you, I recommend wearing long sleeves if you're concerned.

Despite the accident, the local staff (two women) were kind, and riding along the beach was a wonderful experience. However, the restroom situation is poor, so I recommend using the facilities before you go.

レンタカーで現地に早めに行ったものの、あと１キロのところで事故による道路の封鎖があり、予約の時間に行けませんでした。封鎖がいつ解かれるかもわからず、困ってバウチャー記載の電話番号に電話し、事情を話しても（英語が拙かったせいで最初は道に迷ったと思われてしまいましたが、最終的には道路の封鎖だと伝わりました）予約担当じゃないからわからないと言われてしまい、ネット予約のデメリットを痛感しました。仕方なくいったん引き返して時間を置いて戻ったところ、道が通れるようになっていたので、現地に行き、事情を話したら、電話で仲介会社（？）と相談の上、次の回に入れてくれることになりました。（ちなみにキャンセルはできないと言われました。）
乗馬は日本人家族２組とオーストラリア人の家族と一緒でした。説明はとっても早口の英語でしたが、小学生くらいのお子さんでも大丈夫な感じでした。ヘルメットを貸してくれるので、乗馬用の帽子は必要ありませんでしたが、狭い木々の間の道を通るので、長いズボンは必須です。私は半祖袖を着ていましたが、枝で切ってしまうかもしれないので、心配な方は長袖の着用をおすすめします。
アクシデントはありましたが、現地のスタッフ（女性２名）は親切でしたし、ビーチ沿いを馬に乗って歩くのは素晴らしい体験でした。
なお、トイレ事情は悪いので、済ませてから行かれることをおすすめします。

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＞

The best experience! 最高の体験！

Reviewed by: ハマー

I was extremely nervous for my first skydiving experience. However, waiting for me upon arrival was a very cheerful instructor who kept me laughing the whole time, and then there was Sesame, who appeared with great enthusiasm. Before I knew it, I was on Sesame, heading up into the sky.

I encourage you to experience it for yourself. It takes a little time to get there, but the excitement after doing it is definitely worth it!

初のスカイダイビングで、ど緊張だったわたし。
でも、到着した私を待っていたのは、とてもにこやかな笑顔で終始笑かしてくれたインストラクターの方、そしてさっそうと現れたセサミ。「のってのって！」とあっという間にセサミに乗り込み、上空へ。
その後の体験はぜひご自身でどうぞ。
行くまでの時間は少しかかりますが、やった後の感動は要チェックです！

Doors-Off Paradise Helicopter Tour & Landing from Kapolei [Not Operating]

A "Must" Experience!

Reviewed by: Shannon & Bryce

Wow, we had the best time flying with Sandy and felt comfortable the entire time! The view from above is amazing and being in a helicopter is a "must" experience... And this is coming from someone afraid of flying! Great to see the Sacred Waterfall up close, the USS Arizona under water with the oil leak drifting off was unique, and just the mountains and valleys and ocean views are all beyond beautiful! I'd do it again...

ノースショア（ハレイワ）観光　ハレイワタウンで3時間の自由散策＋ドールプランテーション！海辺の絶景を楽しめる乗馬付き(70分)プランあり＜1日／送迎付き＞

I recommend it! お薦めします！　

Reviewed by: ハレイワ乗馬

We all had a great time as a family. During the horseback riding, several staff members accompanied us and provided solid support for the children, which made us feel secure, and we were satisfied with the ample riding time. Additionally, we stopped by a few shopping spots recommended by our guide, where we were able to purchase some great deals. Even during the car ride, we had various conversations and were never bored. However, it would have been nice if they had spoken a bit more slowly. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate once more.

家族みんなで楽しめました。乗馬ではスタッフが何人か付き、子供をしっかりサポートしてくださったので、安心でしたし、乗馬時間もたっぷりで満足出来ました。また、ガイドさんおすすめのショッピングスポットに数か所寄っていただき、お買い得な品々を購入することが出来ました。車中でも、色々なお話をしてくださり退屈しませんでした。ただ、もう少しゆっくり話してくださった方が良かったかな。ハワイに行くことがあれば、また参加したいです。

My first skydiving experience!
I really felt that the Earth is round.
I got a little dizzy from spinning around, but the view was absolutely amazing, and I’m really glad I did it.
I want to do it again!

This time, following the 13th, I enjoyed the final day's canyon horseback riding at W. 今回は１３日に続き、最終日の渓谷乗馬がとれたのでWで楽しみました

Reviewed by: うみぶた

If you start well, you will end well.
After horseback riding on the afternoon of the 13th, we enjoyed canyon horseback riding on the final day of our trip in the morning.
Some people might say, "Is it really that fun?" but we found it enjoyable. My grandchild was in high spirits riding the same horse, "Kahlita," as on the 13th.
The horseback riding experience begins right outside the hotel, and we were fortunate to have a tour guide named "Nakama."
While you could just rent a car for horseback riding, having a knowledgeable tour guide who knows everything about Hawaii makes the activity much more memorable.
Additionally, I am very grateful for how accommodating they were to our requests.
1. Excellent time management
2. Thoughtful attention to guests, which is highly appreciated.
3. Rich knowledge and wide connections with celebrities
From what I remember, the tour guide "Nakama" didn't seem to like shrimp, but he responded to the guests' requests and ordered garlic shrimp from Macky's for everyone to take out, allowing us to use our time effectively.
I look forward to enjoying canyon horseback riding again next time.

　始めよければ終わりも良し。
　１３日午後からの乗馬に続き、旅行最終日に午前からの渓谷乗馬が取れたので楽しんでみました。
　え！そんなに楽しいのと言う人もいますが、私たちは、楽しいです、孫は、　１３日と同じ馬「カリータ」に乗って上機嫌でした。
　乗馬の始まりは、ホテルを出たところから始まりますが、ツアーガイドの　「ナカマさん」という方にも恵まれました。
　乗馬だけならレンタカーで行けば事足りるのですが、やはり、ハワイのことならまかしとけ、というような物知りのツアーガイドの方と一緒にアクティビティをできることは、旅の想い出を何倍にも増やせますね。
　さらに、リクエストにも快く応えて大変感謝しております。
１　時間の配分が上手
２　ゲストに対するきめ細やかな心遣いが好感度大です。
３　知識が豊富なのと、知名人との裾野が広い
等々でした。
　私の記憶だと、ツアーガイドの「ナカマさん」はエビが好きでなかったように記憶していますが、ゲストのリクエストに応えてくれ、マッキーのガーリックシュリンプをみんなの分、テイクアウト注文してくれていて、時間を有意義に使えました。
　また次回も渓谷乗馬たのしみたいです。

You can enjoy horseback riding in nature. 乗馬が自然の中で楽しめます

Reviewed by: 家族３人

Horseback riding included both descending and ascending mountains, with some thrilling moments. It allowed for a sense of adventure in nature, and the view of the sea from the mountains was refreshing. The riding time was quite long, making it enjoyable for beginners. The local woman who explained the horseback riding was friendly and helpful.

The information provided by the Japanese male driver added great value, and the coffee farm we stopped at was enjoyable. The lunch bento was also well-prepared, resulting in a high level of satisfaction.

乗馬は山下り山登りがあってひやひやする局面もあり、自然の中で冒険心が発揮され、山から海が見えて気持ち良く、乗馬時間も結構長く確保され、初心者にとっては十分楽しめる。乗馬説明の現地女性もフレンドリーでよかった。

日系男性ドライバーの方から提供される情報の付加価値が高く、途中立ち寄ったコーヒー農園も楽しく、昼食の弁当も上手く、満足度高かった。

A ring of rainbow appeared below while falling. 落下中、眼下に虹の輪が。

Reviewed by: モーニング平

I participated alone.

I was picked up at the hotel around 7 AM and arrived at the airport around 9 AM. Since I was a solo traveler and did not request photo or video services, I boarded the plane quickly and was the first to jump. I was on the ground by 9:30 AM.

It may have been a coincidence, but during the fall, I was able to enjoy the wonderful sight of a rainbow ring below me.

As mentioned in other people's experiences, after the parachute opened, the diver seemed to have a spirit of service and did some spins. It was fun to see the scenery, but I started to feel a bit nauseous after about three spins, so when I mentioned, "I get airsick easily," they stopped the unnecessary spins. You can communicate with the diver even during the fall, so I think it's good to discuss this while in the air. (They can have simple conversations in Japanese, but they're not fluent, so it might be better to consult in broken English.)

The return bus departed for Waikiki around 12:30 PM and arrived in Waikiki around 1:40 PM.

I recommend bringing something to pass the time. It seemed there were no free Wi-Fi spots at the airport.

一人で参加しました。

朝7時ごろホテルでピックアップされ、9時頃に飛行場に到着。
一人客かつ写真やビデオ撮影を申し込まなかったためか、すぐに飛行機に乗り1番目にジャンプ。9時30分には地上にいました。

たまたまかもしれませんが、落下中、眼下に虹の輪が見えたりとすばらしい光景を楽しむことが出来ました。

他の方の体験談にもありましたが、パラシュートが開いた後、ダイバーの方はサービス精神なのか、くるくると旋回をしてくれます。景色が見られて楽しいですが、自分は3回やられたあたりで気持ち悪くなりそうだったので、「I get airsick easily」と相談したら、以降は不要な旋回はやめてくれました。
一緒に飛んでくれるダイバーの方とは落下中でも会話が可能ですので、空中でその辺りは相談するのがいいと思います。（簡単な日本語会話はしてくれますが、日本語ペラペラではありませんので、片言でも英語で相談したほうが良さそう。）

帰りのバスは12時30分ごろワイキキに向けて出発、13時40分ごろにはワイキキに到着していました。

何かしらの暇つぶしを持って行くことをおすすめします。飛行場には無料のWi-Fiスポットはなさそうでした。
