This tour was great. We experienced in a way we wouldn't have because of the vast knowledge of our driver Coco who made it that much better. I highly recommend to get a well rounded understanding of beautful Oahu!!

The guide for the shuttle service was chatty and fun. I was a bit anxious about horseback riding, but the horse was well taken care of, so it was great. If I have the opportunity, I would like to go again. I don't really like shrimp, but the shrimp lunch was delicious. The pineapple ice at Dole Plantation was enough for two to share, and it was not overly sweet, making it delicious. It was the best day ever.
送迎のガイドさんは、お喋りで楽しかったです 。乗馬は、少し不安だったけど手入れもいきとどいた、お馬さんだったのでよかったです。また、行くきかいがあったら行きたいと思います。エビはあんまり好きじゃなかったけれどシュリンプランチは美味しかったです。ドールプランテーションのパイナップルアイスは二人で一つで食べれるし、しつこくない甘さで美味しかったし最高の一日でした

I participated because I wanted to ride a horse.
There were some sightseeing stops along the way, but the driver was Japanese and managed everything very efficiently, keeping track of time perfectly.
I thought I would only be able to enjoy either the garlic shrimp or the huli huli chicken, but I was able to enjoy both within the limited time.
However, regarding the horseback riding, I searched for a tour that was suitable for advanced riders, but I ended up with beginners, so we only walked for 90 minutes...
That was the only disappointing part.
Because of that, I wanted to give it 5 stars, but I gave it 4 instead.
The driver deserves 5 stars, though!
馬に乗りたくで参加しました
途中観光などありましたがドライバーさんが日本人で
すごく段取りよく効率よくキッチリ時間管理してくれたので
ノースでどちらかしか無理だと思っていた
ガーリックシュリンプもフリフリチキンも時間のない中、両方楽しむ事ができました
ただ乗馬に関してだけ
上級者でもOKの乗馬ツアーを探して参加したのに初心者と一緒になってしまった為
90分歩いただけ…
それだけが残念でした
なので★5つにしたいところを4にしました
ドライバーさんは★5ですww

I'm not good with thrill rides and usually don't ride them, but I decided to challenge myself for his sake...
I was encouraged by everyone's reviews!!!
(I had a faint hope that it might be canceled due to the typhoon, though, lol)
I bought motion sickness medication the day before, and off I went.
The shuttle driver was really funny♪
And all the divers were truly handsome! Haha
We took a helicopter up into the sky. I didn't feel alive at all (>_<)
It doesn't matter about your mental preparation. It's all about your buddy's timing! Considering the cloud conditions, etc...
The moment we dropped, I thought, "I'm dead," but during the free fall, I experienced a world at 200 kilometers per hour. I felt no nausea; I cleared that!
The moment the parachute opened, we shot up, but that was the worst... It was scarier than when we were falling, lol.
I thought I might feel sick, but I was breathless at the stunning view below.
I'm glad I could experience this in Hawaii.
The sky, the sea, the greenery—nature is truly beautiful.
I only bought the photos.
They were expensive, so I skimped on the video, but I kind of regret not buying it after returning home (*^_^*) because it was really pricey! Photos and video cost $180.
I had heard that contact lenses can fly away, so I brought mine. Maybe the goggles weren't on properly, but my left lens disappeared somewhere.
After it was over, I had an acai bowl from a cart nearby!
It was delicious♪ A reward for myself for doing my best♪
Finally, I received a certificate, which made me feel really happy (^o^)
私は絶叫系の乗り物が苦手でほぼ乗らないのですが、彼の希望で挑戦することに…
みなさんの口コミで背中を押されました!!!
(台風の影響でなくなるかな、なんて淡い期待もしちゃいましたがw)
酔い止めを前日に買い、いざ出陣。
送迎のおじさん面白かったな♪
そして、ダイバーの方たちは、本当にみんなイケメンでした!笑
ヘリコプターで上空へ。生きている心地がしなかった(>_<)
自分の心の準備とか関係ないんですね。バディの方のタイミング!雲の状況等を考えて。。。
落下した瞬間「死んだ」って思ったけど、フリーホールの時間は時速200キロの世界を体感。気持ち悪さもなく、ここはクリア!
パラシュートが開いた瞬間一気に上昇するのだが、それがだめだった…落下しているときより怖かったw
気持ち悪いとおもったけど、目下の絶景に息を呑みました。
ハワイで体験できてよかったなって思った。
空も海も緑も、自然て本当にきれいだなと感じました。
写真だけ購入しました。
高かったから動画はケチってしまったけれど、購入すればよかったかなと帰国してからちょっと後悔(*^_^*)だってめちゃ高いんだもん!写真と動画で180$。
コンタクトレンズが飛ぶって聞いたことがあったので持っていきました。ゴーグルの仕方があまかったのか、左目だけどこかへ消えました。
終わった後、脇にあるワゴンでアサイボールを食べました!
おいしかったな♪がんばった自分へのご褒美です♪
最後に証書ももらって、うれしい気分になりました(^o^)

The first stop was at Dole, and it seemed to be just before opening, so we headed to the shop as soon as it opened! We were able to buy without waiting in line. I had pineapple juice the other day, so this time I went for a float, but the soft serve was quite substantial and didn’t float! (We shared one between two people, but it was still a bit heavy for the morning.)
I was able to see a sea turtle just poking its head out of the water. I wasn't expecting much, but it was nice to see it after all.
It was a sunny day with strong sunlight. Even though it’s a valley, the sun shines through, so sunscreen is a must. There’s no requirement to wear helmets (the kids borrowed some, so I think those who are anxious can probably borrow one), but I wished I had brought a hat. During the horseback riding, you can’t carry bags or anything. They provide a kind of bag for valuables (I’m not sure what to call it), so I just put my digital camera and wallet in there and hung it on the horse. The horse was very gentle, and as a beginner, I didn’t feel scared at all while riding. The 90 minutes included explanations and such, so we were actually riding for just over an hour. It went by in a flash. The staff spoke a bit of Japanese, and while riding, if the horse seemed to want to stray, they would give instructions like, “Left, left! Kick, kick!” It made me think that it all works out somehow.
There were 11 participants in total, including 7 from the tour and 4 others. The horse I was riding was very well-behaved and hardly strayed at all. I was worried about dropping my camera, so I didn’t take any pictures while riding, but at the end, we had a chance to take photos at a beautiful spot with a view of the ocean.
For lunch, the garlic shrimp was arranged by our guide for takeout, and they also arranged a place for us to eat, so we could enjoy it in a relaxed setting. The guide provided explanations about various places and plants during the drive (a bit fast-paced!), and I was happy to have a little sightseeing as well. Since there were many people for the horseback riding, we were a bit behind schedule, but thanks to the takeout for lunch, we managed to finish almost on time.
I realized that while the beach is nice, other activities are great too, and this tour really highlighted that.
最初に立ち寄ったドールは、オープンより少し前だったようで、オープンと同時に売店へ!
並ぶことなく買えました。先日パイナップルジュースを飲んだので、今回は、フロートにしましたが、ソフトクリームがかなりのボリュームで、浮いてなかった!
(2人で1つを食べましたが、それでも朝からちょっとヘビーでした)
ウミガメはちょっとだけ海面から頭を出したところをみることができました。
そんなに期待してなかったけど、見れるとやっぱりうれしいものですね。
この日は晴れて日差しの強い日でした。渓谷といっても日差しが差し込みますので、日焼け止め必須です。
ヘルメットの着用はないので(お子さんは借りていたので、多分、不安な方は貸してもらえると思います)、帽子をもってくればよかったな、と思いました。
乗馬中はバッグ等は持てません。貴重品等を入れるバックみないなもの(なんて言うのか分からない)を借していただけますので、その中にデジカメやお財布だけ入れて、馬にかけておきます。
馬はとてもおとなしく、私は、乗馬初心者ですが、乗っていても全然怖くなかったです。
90分丸々乗馬をしているのではなく、説明等も含めての90分。
実質乗っていたのは1時間強かな。あっという間でした。
スタッフの方は片言の日本語ができて、乗馬中、馬が寄り道しそうになると「左、左!蹴る、蹴る!」といった感じで指示してくれます。何とかなるものだなぁと思いました。
ツアーの7名とツアー以外の方4名の計11名が参加。
私の乗っていた馬はとてもお行儀がよく、途中でほとんど寄り道をすることもなかったです。
カメラを落とす不安があったので乗馬中は自分では写真を撮りませんでしたが、最後に、海が見えるきれいな景色のところで撮っていただきました。
昼食のガーリックシュリンプは、ガイドさんがテイクアウトできるよう段取りしてくださり、食べる場所もアレンジしてくださったので、のんびりとした中で食べることができました。
ガイドさんはドライブ中も色々と通る場所や植物の説明をしてくださり(ちょっと早口!)、ちょっとした観光もできてうれしかったです。
乗馬の人数が多かったので、少し時間が押してましたが、ランチのテイクアウトなどで時間が短縮できたのか、最後はほとんど予定通りの時間に終わりました。
ビーチもいいけどそれ以外のアクティビティもいいなぁと実感できたツアーでした。

The horseback riding experience was a bit disappointing. There was a paper on the wall in Japanese explaining how to ride and what to be careful about, so that was fine, but the scenery wasn't that great. At one point with a nice view, the guide was only explaining to another English-speaking group, and at that time, we hadn't even reached that spot yet. By the time we got there, there was no explanation, and we couldn't even stop, which was unfortunate. From start to finish, we just walked in a line.
乗馬は、少しガッカリでした。乗馬の仕方や注意点は日本語で書いた紙が壁に貼ってあるので大丈夫でしたが、景色がさほどいいわけでもなく、一か所見晴らしの良い所では、英語でもう1つの英語圏のグループにのみに説明していてしかも、その時は私達は、まだその位置に着いてないし、その位置に着いたときは、説明どころか、たちどまれず残念です。最初から最後までただただ一列になって歩いただけでした。

The guide was incredibly friendly, and I had a great time throughout the experience. I've tried horseback riding in various places, but this time I was surprised that we rode thoroughbreds used for polo without bits. They were very well cared for and such cute, smart horses. I was able to thoroughly enjoy the nature of Waimea Valley and the views of the North Shore for a full 90 minutes. It was truly beautiful, and the breeze was refreshing, so I definitely plan to come back here next time! Also, the Dole pineapple ice cream, shave ice in Haleiwa Town, garlic shrimp, huli huli chicken, and burgers were absolutely delicious!
ガイドの方がとにかく親しみやすい感じで終始たのしく過ごせました。色々な場所で乗馬を体験してきましたが、今回はポロ競技用のサラブレッドで、はみをしていないのには驚きました。とても手入れが行き届いてお利口なかわいい馬でした。90分もたっぷりとワイメア渓谷の自然とノースショアの海の眺めを楽しむことができました。本当にきれいで、風も涼しく次回も必ずここにしようと思います!そしてドールのパイナップルアイス、ハレイワタウンのシェイブアイス、ガーリックシュリンプ、ふりふりチキン、バーガーは最高においしかったです!

At the end of July, I participated in the "Horseback Riding in Hawaii! North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience at Hawaii Polo Club" plan. My husband and I joined together. We were both anxious since we couldn't speak English, but the staff member, Alex, kindly explained everything in simple English at a slow pace, which we really appreciated.
The horseback riding experience was amazing! I was able to hold the reins myself and, although it was slow, I enjoyed the beautiful coastline, which was even more stunning than the sea in Waikiki. It was truly the best time.
The horses were well-trained, and I felt no fear at all. There was also a family of foreigners with us, including a girl around 10 years old who was riding for the first time, and she seemed to have a lot of fun! I also recommend this place because the riding experience lasts longer than at other facilities. There were three female staff members, and they were all very kind.
At the end, we took commemorative photos with the beautiful sea in the background, and it was truly a wonderful experience! I plan to use this service again when I go to Hawaii!
Lastly, I have to mention… when I heard "Polo Club," I imagined a luxurious facility, but in reality, it was more like a farm (laughs). The waiting area was a small outdoor shed, and the restroom was a portable toilet. But that didn't matter because I highly recommend it!

I recently went to Hawaii for the first time, and I took the opportunity to go skydiving! I’ve always been interested in activities like this, and I felt like it was something I couldn’t experience in Japan, so I decided to give it a try (^o^). I’ve spent a lot of time doing things halfway, and I wanted to do something that would amaze everyone at least once in my life!! (laughs)
Originally, I had a reservation for Sunday, but there was a typhoon approaching, and the weather looked suspicious… A local advised me, “It’s probably not going to happen on Sunday because of the typhoon, so if you can, change the date,” so I quickly changed my reservation to Saturday. The diving center mentioned that they only spoke English, but there was a Japanese person at Pacific Skydiving, so I was able to communicate in Japanese.
On the day of the jump, I was picked up from my hotel in Waikiki, and after about an hour on the highway, we arrived at the site. We ended up on the opposite side of Oahu, which was surprisingly far away (laughs).
The check-in process went relatively quickly, but the waiting time until the jump was tough…!!
About 15 Japanese people came on the same bus. There were also other foreigners waiting at the site. The Japanese participants were taken in pairs. The Cessna planes flew roughly every hour, so I ended up sitting on a bench waiting for about 5 hours during the queue.
Then, clouds rolled in, and they announced that we couldn’t jump due to the weather…
There were still about 7 people left, and we were faced with the choice: “There’s no guarantee the weather will improve, do you want to wait or go back with those who have already jumped?”
I couldn’t give up after waiting so long, so I said, “I’ll wait,” but some people chose to leave. The weather was something we couldn’t control… (^_^;)
After waiting for another hour, we finally got the go-ahead!
Total waiting time: about 7 hours! (^_^;)
Since I had a photographer with me, we quickly did some pre-jump shots and boarded the Cessna.
Once we jumped, it was over in an instant!
But the view was amazing! The ocean and land were beautiful!!
I really enjoyed the freefall (^o^).
After the parachute opened, I started to feel a bit nauseous… It swayed side to side unlike the straight drop, like a pirate ship ride at an amusement park. I was glad I took motion sickness medication just in case… (^_^;)
In the end, it took about 10 hours to get back to the hotel. It turned into a whole day affair (^_^;). My partner was waiting at the hotel, so I worried him. There were others who had next plans but couldn’t get in touch, wondering what to do.
Skydiving is truly amazing…! The thrill of the experience is incredible, and the scenery is breathtaking!!
However, since it can be affected by the weather, I think those who have plans afterward should be careful (^_^;).
I received videos and photos, but since the photos are in sequence, just the photos might be enough?? (laughs) It became a great memory!! I definitely recommend participating with plenty of time to spare! (^o^)
先日初めてハワイにいったのですが、この機会にスカイダイビングしてきました!
もともとあアクティビティに興味があり、日本ではなかなか体験できない気がして挑戦することに(^o^)
色々中途半端で過ごしてきたワタシ…人生で1つくらい、皆をあっと言わせられる事やりたかったんです!!(笑)
当初の予約は日曜日だったのですが、たまたま台風が近づいていて怪しい雲行き…
現地の方に「日曜は台風で無理だろうから、可能なら日にち変えてもらいなよ~」とアドバイスをもらい、急遽日付変更、土曜日にさせていただきました。
ダイビングセンターへの問合せは「英語のみ」と書かれてましたが、パシフィックスカイダイビングには日本人の方います。日本語でお願いできました。
そして当日。
ワイキキ中心のホテルでピックアップしてもらいましたが、高速道路へ乗って現場へ向かうこと約一時間…
オアフ島の反対側まで来ました。
案外遠いとこに連れてこられて、あぁ(笑)
手続きは割りと早めに終わりましたが、そこから飛ぶまでの時間が大変です…!!
日本人は15名くらい同じバスで来ました。現地では他の外国人の方も待っています。
日本人は二人ずつくらい乗せられて行きます。
ざっくり、1時間1本ペースでセスナが飛んだので、順番待ちの段階で5時間くらいひたすらベンチで座って待ちました。
ここでなんと、雲が出てきて飛べないと言うことで運転見合せに。。。
まだ7人くらい残ってましたが、
「この後天候が回復して飛べる保証はないけど、待ちますか?それとも終わった人と帰りますか?」
そんな選択を迫られることに…!
わた私はここまで待ったんだから諦められず「待ちます」といいましたが…
帰る方もいらっしゃいました。
天候だけはどうにもならないということです…(^_^;)
そこからさらに1時間位待ってGoサイン出ました!
待ち時間、約7時間!(^_^;)
私はカメラマン同行だったので、飛ぶ前の意気込み撮影などをサクサクやって、セスナに乗り込みました。
とびだしたら一瞬です!…!
てでも素晴らしい景色を見れました!
海も陸も美しい!!
とにかく落下、楽しみましたよ~(^o^)
あとは、
パラシュートを開いあと、私は酔いそうでした…まっすぐ降下してる時と違って横揺れするので…遊園地のバイキング状態です。
念のため、酔い止め飲んでいって良かったです…(^_^;)
で、結局ホテルに帰ってくるまで10時間くらい掛かってしまったんですかね。
1日かかっちゃいました(^_^;)
彼がホテルで待っていたので、心配掛けました。
他にも、次の予定があるけど連絡がとれないからどうしよう、等と言ってる方も居ました。
スカイダイビングはほんとに素晴らしいです…!
恐怖感よりもダイナミックな経験ができる凄さとか、景色に、感動します!!
ただ、天候に左右されたりするので、この後に予定など入れられる方は気をつけた方がいいと思います(^_^;)
ムービー、写真、いただきましたが、写真が駒送りなので写真だけでも充分かも??(笑)
いい記念になりました!!
是非、時間に余裕を持って参加してみてください!(^o^)

I participated with him. I was impressed by this tree! The soft serve ice cream at Dole Plantation was incredibly delicious.
The Happy Trails horseback riding experience was thrilling with ups and downs in nature, and we could see the ocean, making the 90 minutes fly by. The horses were all well-behaved, which made me feel safe while riding.
During the sightseeing on the way there and back, the driver shared various stories while driving, and I felt the spirit of hospitality as I listened to so many interesting tales. I was impressed by the wealth of information about Hawaii's history, plants, and even celebrities coming from Japan. For lunch, I had the garlic shrimp at Macky's, which was truly delicious and made me very happy.
I only got to see the sea turtles swimming. Additionally, since the travel time was smooth, we also stopped by Matsumoto Shave Ice, a coffee farm, and a soap factory. Although the time spent at each place was short and quite hectic, I had a very fulfilling and enjoyable day. Thank you very much.
彼と2人で参加しました。この木なんの木に感動!ドールプランテーションのソフトクリームがすごく美味しかったです。
そしてハッピートレイルズは自然の中のアップダウンありで海も見えたり飽きないコースでドキドキしながら90分の乗馬体験はあっという間でした。おりこうさんな馬ばかりで安全に乗れて安心しました。
行き帰りの観光では、ドライバーさんが運転しながらもずっと色々な話をしてくれて、本当に疲れるのではないかと思うほどたくさんのお話を聞けおもてなしの心を感じました。ハワイの歴史から植物、また日本からくる芸能人の情報なども豊富で感心しました。お昼はマッキーズのガーリックシュリンプを食べましたが本当に美味しくて感動して幸せでした。
ウミガメは泳いでるところだけ見れました。
また、移動時間がスムーズだったので松本シェイブアイス、コーヒー農園とソープファクトリーにも寄ってくれました。一つの場所の滞在時間が短くてかなり慌ただしくもありましたがとても充実した楽しい一日を過ごせました。ありがとうございました。

The only disappointment was that we couldn't see any turtles at Ali'i Beach (^^;;

Last time, I signed up for the seaside tour, but this time I wanted to ride horses for a longer period, so I participated in the canyon tour. I was very satisfied with the long horseback riding. This canyon tour does not require helmets. There were exciting moments as the horses would eat grass, which was a bit nerve-wracking but fun. It mentions that the tour is in English only, but the guide provided simultaneous interpretation, so there were no issues at all. Besides horseback riding, they also took us to Mackey's Shrimp and Aoki Shave Ice. The tour guide, Nakama, has excellent service spirit. I plan to participate again in November, and I hope to have Nakama as my guide again!☆
前回はこちらの海辺ツアーを申し込んだのですが、もう少し乗馬を長時間したいと思い、今回の渓谷ツアーに参加しました。
長時間馬に乗れて大満足。こちらの渓谷ツアーは、ヘルメットなしです。

英語のみと記載がありますが、ガイドさん?が同時通訳してくれるのでまったく問題ないです。乗馬以外にもマッキーズのシュリンプや、青木シェイブアイスのお店にも連れて行ってくださいました。添乗員のナカマさん、サービス精神が素晴らしいです。

We went out to sea on a boat that can hold about 20 people, crossing rough waves. We were the only Japanese there. We were divided into three groups and entered the cage in turn. The sharks gathered due to the sound of the boat's engine, so we were able to see many of them! They are not carnivorous and are said to be a type that does not attack humans, so we could enjoy it with peace of mind. While waiting on the boat and inside the cage, it rocked quite a bit, so almost everyone got seasick. Everyone who was lively and energetic on the way out was silent and exhausted on the way back... it was a good memory (laughs). As noted in the precautions, it's definitely better to take motion sickness medication. Also, it can get cold if the wind is strong, so I think it's a good idea to bring something to wear and a bath towel to dry off quickly.
20人乗りくらいのボートで荒波をこえ沖まで出ました。
日本人は私たちだけでした。
3グループに分けられ、順番に檻に入ります。
サメはボートのエンジン音で集まってくるのでたくさん見れました!
肉食ではないので人は襲わない種類らしく、安心して楽しめました。
待っている間のボートも、檻の中も、かなり揺れるのでほぼ全員船酔いしてました。
行きはノリノリで元気だったみんなが帰りは無言でぐったり。。。いい思い出です(笑)
注意事項にもあるとおり、酔い止めは絶対飲んだ方がいいですね。
あと、風が強いと寒いので羽織るものとすぐ体をふけるようにバスタオルは持って行った方がいいと思います。

Walking along the shaded area by the sea is comfortable, with a pleasant breeze and stunning views! I even saw a turtle.
Getting a helmet at the hut and being able to start riding just five minutes after a brief explanation is great; there's no waste of time. The two women accompanying the horseback riding were also very nice.
The restroom is dirty, so it's better not to use it.
As for plans other than horseback riding, they are the same as other places on the North Shore, so there are no significant pros or cons. The driver and guide kept explaining things so we wouldn't get bored, which made it enjoyable. No complaints at all!
海沿いの木陰を進むので、暑くない、風が気持ちよく景色も最高!!カメもいたよ。
小屋でヘルメットもらって、説明5分ですぐ乗馬できるのもいい、無駄がないです。乗馬に付き添ってくれる女性2名も感じがいいw
トイレは汚いので使用しない方がいいです。
乗馬以外のプランは、ほかのノースショアと同じですから、良し悪しはないです。運転手 兼 案内人さんがず~~~っと退屈しないように説明をしてくれていて楽しかったです。文句なしです!

Really enjoyed sailing on the catamaran and seeing some of the most beautiful fish and turtles! Staff was friendly and accomodating. We were able to bring drinks and snacks aboard. Would go again!

On the last day of our honeymoon, we decided to try skydiving. We took a bus from our hotel to the diving point. During the ride, we had to sign several waivers stating that we would take full responsibility for anything that happened. It's important to be careful not to get car sick during this time. If there are any mistakes in the paperwork, you will be the last to jump, so be cautious about that.
Upon arrival, those who completed their paperwork correctly get priority in the lineup. We met our foreign instructor, who helped us put on the harness and equipment. My instructor was kind and explained everything clearly using some Japanese words.
Since we opted for photos and videos, a cameraman also joined us on the Cessna. As we ascended higher and higher, my excitement grew.
Once we reached the target altitude, it was finally time to dive. The moment I jumped is still vividly etched in my memory. After the parachute opened, the instructor made some turns, which surprisingly made me feel a bit nauseous. But we landed safely. It all happened so quickly, but it was the best experience.
Afterward, I tipped the instructor and the cameraman $20 each and checked the completed photos and videos. I decided to purchase both as a once-in-a-lifetime keepsake. The total cost was about 20,000 yen for one person.
Even after I finished my jump, we couldn't leave until everyone who came on the bus had completed their jumps. We had to wait for about three hours, which was a bit tough.
Overall, I was very satisfied. It's a memory of a lifetime and something to brag about, so I highly recommend it.
新婚旅行の最終日のオプションでスカイダイビングに挑戦しました。宿泊ホテルから迎えのバスでダイビングポイントへ。車中で「何があっても責任は自分にあります。」的な誓約書を何枚も書かされます。その際、車酔いしないように注意が必要です。この書類記入に漏れがあると飛ぶのが1番後回しにされるのでこれも注意。
到着し、書類記入合格者優先で順番がまわってきます。相棒となる外国人インストラクターと合流し、ハーネスやら器具を装着します。自分の担当の方は親切で、日本語の単語を使ってわかりやすく説明してくれました。
写真とビデオをオプションで付けたので、カメラマンも同行でセスナ機に乗り込みます。どんどん地上から離れていくだけで興奮してきます。
目標高度まで着いていよいよダイブ。飛び降りる瞬間の光景は今でも目に焼き付いています。パラシュートが開いてからインストラクターが気を利かせてか、旋回させます。それが思いのほか気持ち悪くなりました。そして無事着地。あっという間です。でも最高の体験です。
その後、インストラクター、カメラマンに20ドルずつチップBOXにチップを入れ、完成した写真とビデオを確認します。一生に一度の記念にどちらも購入しました。1人合計で2万くらいです。
自分が飛び終わってもバスで一緒にきた人たち全員が飛び終わるまでは帰れません。ひたすら待機です。私たちは3時間くらい待ちました。その点がしんどかったです。
全体的には満足でした。一生の思い出、一生の自慢になりますのでオススメです。

It was a pleasant experience to ride horses slowly along the beach. I was a bit nervous since it was my first time riding, but the two female instructors were kind and guided me well. In the end, I felt a sense of unity with the horse! It became a valuable experience.
浜辺をゆっくり乗馬する気持ちの良い体験でした。初めての乗馬で緊張気味だったけど、女性二人のインストラクターが優しく指導してくれ、最後は馬との一体感も感じられたような!?貴重な体験になりました。

I drove to Polo Club by rental car, but I missed the sign and almost entered a different riding club next door, which was a close call. I was prepared based on everyone's posts, but I found that no one spoke Japanese at all. However, a kind female staff member explained everything to me multiple times, so it was okay. There was no practice or anything; we just started right away, and I was nervous at first, but the horses were very gentle, and I got used to it quickly. I thought everything would be along the coast, but we also went through some grassy areas, so I think it's better for those who are concerned to wear long pants. Walking by the seaside was truly pleasant, like a scene from a movie. I wished I had more time by the sea, but I learned that this company is the only one that allows you to walk along the coast, so I had a valuable riding experience and really enjoyed it.
ポロクラブまでレンタカーで行きましたが、看板に気づかずに通り過ぎてしまい、
隣の違う乗馬クラブに入りそうになって危なかったです。
みなさんの投稿で覚悟はしていましたが、日本語は全く通じません。
でも、現地スタッフの女性が優しく何度も説明してくれるので大丈夫でした。
練習もなにもなく、いきなりスタートで最初は緊張しましたが、とてもおとなしい馬ばかりですぐに慣れました。
全部が海沿いなのかと思っていましたが、途中草むらの中も入ったりしたので、気になる人は長ズボンの方がいいと思います。
海辺を歩いている時は本当に気持ちよく、映画のワンシーンのようでした。
もっともっと海辺の時間が欲しかったですが、海沿いを歩けるのはこちらの会社だけとのことで、貴重な乗馬体験ができて楽しかったです。

Although the clouds rolled in and it was crowded, resulting in a long wait time of about four hours, I was so excited that I forgot all about it in an instant. Unfortunately, the camera of the photographer who accompanied me was malfunctioning, so we couldn't capture any photos while flying, but the video turned out well, so I purchased it. I was able to enjoy the scenery while flying, and even though it was scary, I felt it was worth it. I had some trouble with ear equalization, so my ears hurt for a while afterward, and I felt a bit nauseous, but I am filled with the desire to do it again.
雲がかかってしまったり、混んでたのもあって、待ち時間が4時間とかなり長かったですが、そんなことも一瞬で忘れてしまうほどに大興奮しました。
残念ながら、私についてくれたカメラマンのカメラの調子が悪く、飛んでいる時の写真が撮れなかったのですが、ビデオは良く撮れていたので購入しました。
飛んでいる間もしっかり景色を楽しむこともでき、怖かったけどやってよかったと思います。
耳抜きがうまくできなかったので、終わってからもしばらく耳が痛かったのと、少しだけ気持ち悪くなってしまいましたが、またやりたい気持ちでいっぱいです。

I had run out of ideas for activities in Hawaii for this trip. Just before the departure date, I discovered this plan! Once I found it, I really wanted to try it, so I signed up immediately! Without hesitation, I registered here, and there were no issues with the pickup and transportation. All the instructors were foreigners, but I was able to understand them well with their broken Japanese and gestures. The weather was great on the day, and I had the best "dive" experience!
ハワイのアクティビティも思い浮かばなくなっていた今回の旅行。
出発日ギリギリでしたが、このプランを発見!そうとなればどうしても飛んでみたくなり、即申込み!
迷うことなく、こちらに申込みましたがピックアップから送迎までなんの問題もありません。
また、インストラクターは全て外人ではありましたが、カタコトの日本語と身振り手振りで充分理解できました。
当日は天気も良く最高の「ダイブ」を体験出来ました!

The horses were very well trained, and I was able to enjoy horseback riding with peace of mind. The children who participated with us seemed to have a great time, and I can recommend this to families as well. The trip to the North Shore was not a hassle at all, and the stop at Dole and the interesting trees along the way were unexpectedly enjoyable.
馬の調教がとてもよくされており、安心して乗馬を楽しむことが出来ました。
一緒に参加したお子さんもとても楽しそうで、家族の方々にもおすすめできます。
気になっていたノースショアへの移動も全然苦にならず、途中のドールも気になる木もなにげに楽しかったです。
