I was looking forward to this tour.
The horseback riding itself was enjoyable, but the tour guide, Kaz, was very businesslike. He only said what he needed to say (just explanations) and ignored us or responded coldly when we tried to say something. Even when I just wanted to confirm something as a first-time participant, he would say things like, "I just said that, didn't I?" with a laugh, and "That's why I'm asking."
When my child spoke a little loudly, he covered his ears, sighed, and told us to be quiet, saying that if we didn't keep it down, it would irritate the tour guide again. I ended up scolding my child out of frustration.
I realized he didn't like children, and it was exhausting throughout the trip.
Even when I conveyed that my child was looking forward to seeing the sea turtles, he casually replied, "They'll be around, but there are hardly any in winter."
He told us to go through the grass, and my shoes got soaked walking through the wet grass after the rain.
After the horseback riding, he just said, "We're going back right away!" without asking for any feedback, and mentioned that we were running late. I felt like I was constantly checking the tour guide's mood, and it was very tiring.
I was really disappointed since I had paid nearly 100,000 yen for the tour. I don't think I will use this company again.
このツアーを楽しみにしていました。
乗馬自体は楽しかったのですが、ツアコンのカズさんが業務的で、言いたいことだけ(説明だけ)言って、こちらがなにか言っても無視か、冷たい反応。初参加でよくわからないので確認しただけにもかかわらず、
私さっき言いましたよね?鼻で笑って、だからそれを聞いてるんです。などと言われたり、
子どもがちょっと大きな声で話したら、耳を押さえられて、ため息ついて、静かにしてください、といわれ、静かにさせないとまたツアコンの方をいらつかせるなあと、私も子どもに叱りイライラ。
彼が子どもが嫌いなのはわかりましたが、道中どっと疲れました。
また子どもがウミガメを楽しみにしてることを伝えても、
寄りますけど、冬場はほとんどいないですよ
と、あっさり。15分で戻ってきて。と、草むらを突っ切って行けと言われて、雨上がりの草むらを歩いて靴はビシャビシャ。
乗馬後も、すぐに帰りますから!とだけ言われ、感想を聞くわけでもなく、時間がおしてる。
などと言ってきて、ツアコンの方の顔色伺がって、どっと疲れて帰ってきました。
10万円近いツアー代金を払っていたので本当に残念でした。こちらの会社は2度ど利用しないと思います。

Everything was great from the time of arrival. We arrived a few hours early to visit the waterfall and botanical garden. Simply beautiful and peaceful. That landed us in time for the luau and we got upgraded to VIP! Warning VIP you may be asked to be part of the show but it’s all fun and games and a great hands on learning experience. Food was buffet style and also amazingly delicious. All in all a great day at a great price.

The day after the Honolulu Marathon, I participated with two friends. I was worried about muscle pain, but I enjoyed it so much that I forgot all about it due to the refreshing feeling. There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but it was not a problem at all. They made it fun and lively. I also got to know the people in my group well, and it created wonderful memories. The zip line was amazing!! I want to participate again.

I went by rental car instead of using the shuttle service. The location of the airport was clearly marked, so it wasn't particularly difficult to find (although I did pass it once).
Even though I went in December, which is during the rainy season, we were blessed with clear skies and no wind—it was perfect! Since it was a special experience, I requested a combination of photos and videos.
There were two options for filming: one where the instructor holds a GoPro (which is a bit cheaper) and another where an additional cameraman flies around and captures footage from various angles (which is fairly expensive). This time, I chose to have the external shots taken.
When you request filming, they will take the footage for you, but if you don't like it, you don't have to buy it (especially since sometimes the wind pressure can make your face look strange in the video). The price is relatively high, so it would be disappointing to end up with an awkward expression, so I thought this was a good service. However, since there is an additional cameraman flying around, they do ask that if you request filming, you at least purchase either the images or the video.
Filming takes place from before you board the plane until after you land. Before flying, they do an interview in front of the airport. Since I went with my spouse, they filmed both of us (we each had a cameraman, so there were two different patterns). After the parachute opens, the cameraman descends first and waits on the ground. Once we land, they film us again in an interview format.
Now, about the airport experience...
When you arrive at the airport, you first watch a safety video and sign a waiver. When I mentioned I was Japanese, I was relieved to find that both the video and the documents were in Japanese. The documents contain a lot of scary information, but that’s to be expected. Sometimes they check your identity with your passport or driver's license, but if you use the shuttle service, a copy is fine. The staff advised me not to carry my passport around.
Since some people apparently leave without paying after flying when they arrive by rental car, you have to leave your ID with them.
After that, you just wait for your name to be called. The planes are constantly taking off and landing, and the instructors efficiently pack the parachutes in preparation for the next dive.
When my name and assigned instructor were called, the preparations began. We joked around, saying things like, "Is this your first time?" "It's my first time too!" and then it was finally time to board.
As we ascended (for about 15 minutes), the instructor attached the harness, and then we were off! There was no time to be scared; we jumped right out.
The free fall was intense with the wind pressure, but I could feel the air in my hands and enjoyed the scenery. After the parachute opened, we descended slowly while taking in the view, with the guide pointing out various mountains and bays.
After landing, the video and photos were available to view in about five minutes, so we headed to the movie room. During that time, I wrote a message to the instructor and cameraman who assisted us and placed a tip in the box.
After watching the video, if you liked it, you could purchase it. The video was edited and turned out really well. Both my spouse and I purchased both photos and videos.
The data can be received via USB, but you can also receive it through AirDrop beforehand.
Finally, we took a photo with everyone who flew with us and then parted ways.
It was an incredibly good experience. Thank you!
送迎でなくレンタカーで行きました。飛行場の場所は看板もあり特にわかりづらいという事はありませんでした。(一度通り過ぎましたが)
雨季に当たる12月に行ったものの晴天に恵まれて風もなく最高でした!
せっかくの体験なので写真とビデオのコンビをお願いしました。
価格は違いますが、インストラクターが手に持ったGo Proで撮影するパターン(ちょっとだけ安い)と、もう1人カメラマンが飛んで周りからひたすら撮影するパターン(まぁまぁ高い)の2種類がありました。
今回は外から撮ってもらうことにしました。
撮影をお願いすると撮ってもらえますが、気に入らない場合は買わなくていいそうです(特に動画は風圧で変な顔になっててとても…と言う場合があるからだそう)
価格も割とするので変な顔だと残念なのでいいサービスだと思いました。
ただ、もう1人カメラマンに飛んでもらっているので撮影をお願いした場合はせめて画像、動画のどちらかは購入するようにお願いがありました。
撮影については飛行機に乗り込む前から降りた後までで、飛ぶ前は飛行場の前でインタビュー的なことをやってくれます。今回は夫婦で行ったので2人で撮ってくれました。(2人ともカメラマンをつけたので2パターン)
パラシュートを開いた以降はカメラマンは先に降りて地上でスタンバイしてます。降りたらまたインタビュー形式で撮ってくれます。
撮影の話はこれくらいにして…
飛行場についたらまず、安全のためのムービーと誓約書的な書類にサインします。日本人だと告げるとムービーも書類も日本語なので安心です。書類は怖いこといっぱい書いてますがまぁそんなもんでしょう。
身分を確認するためにパスポートか免許証を確認する時がありますが、送迎の場合はコピーでいいそうです。パスポートは持ち歩かない方がいいよとスタッフに念を押されました。
レンタカーで行くと、飛んだあと支払わずに帰る人がいるらしいので身分証を預けます。
あとは名前を呼ばれるのを待つだけです。
飛行機はひっきりなしに飛んでは降りてを繰り返し、インストラクター達は出際よくパラシュートを畳み次のダイブに備えます。
自分の名前と担当のインストラクターをコールされ、準備が始まります。
君初めて?俺も初めて!みたいなジョークを交えながらワイワイやってたらいよいよ搭乗です。
上昇しながら(15分くらい)インストラクターとハーネスをくっつけて、いざ!
怖がる暇もなく、有無を言わさずポンポン飛びます。
自由落下は風圧はすごいですが、手に空気を感じながら…景色も楽しめました。パラシュートが開いてからはゆっくり景色を楽しみながら飛行場目指して降りていきます。あの山がなんだ…この湾がなんだ…とガイドしてくれました。
降りてからは、5分ほどでムービーと写真が観れるようになるのでムービールームへ
それまでに担当してくれたインストラクターとカメラマンにメッセージを書いて、お礼のチップをボックスに入れます。
ムービー等を見て、良かったら購入する流れになります。
ムービーは編集してくれていてとてもいい仕上がりでした。
夫婦とも写真も動画もどちらも購入しました。
データはUSBで貰えますが、先立ってエアドロップでも受け取ることが可能です。
最後に飛んでくれたみんなと写真を撮って解散しました。
非常に良い経験になりました。ありがとうございました。

I participated with two friends, and we each signed up together. The check-in was handled by someone who spoke Japanese, and the explanations regarding the documents, photography options, and fees including tips were clear and easy to understand. Both the instructor and the photographer who assisted me were male, kind, and gentlemanly. This was my first experience with skydiving, and although this is the only place I know, I would like to jump here again.
You will need to sign a liability waiver for the detailed items. If you wish to take out additional insurance, it might be better to consider other options.

This helicopter tour was booked right after we decided on our trip to Hawaii because my wife wanted to ride it. We waited for three months, excitedly counting down the days on the Veltra website!
To be honest, I'm not great with heights, and even though I was strapped in with a four-point seatbelt, I was still worried and gripping the handrail tightly. Without windows, it felt thrilling as if I might fall. You can feel the wind, and it gets cold, so a long-sleeve jacket is a must.
We took off from Inouye Airport and floated gently, making almost a full circle around Oahu, starting with Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head. We also saw a waterfall in the mountains along the way.
Time flew by, and we returned safely! It was a valuable experience, and I had a lot of fun. I want to thank the pilot and the staff.
今回のヘリコプターツアーは、ハワイ旅行が決まって、嫁が乗りたいと言って、すぐに予約しました。

ベルトラのホームページにも、あと何日とカウントダウン!
実のところ私は、高いところが苦手で、ヘリコプターに乗って4点式シートベルトをして、もう落ちないはずですが、心配で吊り手を握り締めていました。σ(^_^;)
窓がないので、落ちそうでスリル満点。
風を感じ、寒いので長袖ジャケットが必須です。
フワッと浮くとイノウエ空港から離陸し、ワイキキビーチ、ダイヤモンドヘッドを始め、オワフ島を左回りにほぼ一周しました。
途中山中の滝も見ました。
あっという間に時間が過ぎて、無事帰還!

The excitement and anticipation peaked! My excitement slightly won over my nerves as the Cessna took off and climbed higher and higher, making my heart race! Bathed in the morning sun, the scenery of Hawaii came into view, and it was so beautiful! While I was captivated by the view, the instructor opened the door of the Cessna!
When it was my turn, I took off with my instructor, Misha! While being photographed by the cameraman, Neil, I experienced freefall! It was hard to breathe! Neil gestured with a fist pump, and I responded with a fist pump and an OK sign too! As I calmed down, I was able to breathe easier and take in the scenery around me.
When the parachute opened, I was moved by the beauty of the surroundings! I felt the grandeur of the Earth's curvature as we turned right and left, and the greenery of the mountains and the blueness of the ocean were incredibly beautiful! I had an amazing time skydiving, filled with excitement and thrill. I definitely want to try it again, and I am grateful to the instructor and all the staff. Thank you very much!

The dive from 4,267 meters was over in no time, but it was an experience like no other. I thought it might be impossible for couples in their 40s and 50s, but it turns out it’s not something they can’t do... It was truly enjoyable.

First, I was anxious because the pickup car didn't arrive even after the scheduled time... I couldn't get through on the phone... I didn't even know what kind of car it was... Finally, a car with the word "DIVING" on it arrived, but it was 15 minutes late! I thought they might have gone to the wrong location.
There were four of us participating, and after a lot of explanations during the car ride to the airport, before I knew it, we were up in the sky... Those who wanted to take photos were the first to jump out, followed by a few others who were tossed out one after another (laughs). It's hard to put into words, but it was fun, although my face and ears hurt... and I felt a bit nauseous. It's definitely an experience worth trying.

I started with the canyon plan, but I was suddenly informed that horseback riding was canceled due to the muddy ground from the rain the day before and the rain on the day itself, which made it even more dangerous. However, I was quickly switched to a seaside horseback riding experience where the weather was nice, and I had an incredibly fun time.
Hiro, who was different from the initial staff, was amazing until the very end. Before we went horseback riding, the staff explained the precautions in English and detailed the process of getting on the horse, which was very easy to understand. As a first-timer, I felt reassured and was able to ride without any trouble. The horse was calm and well-behaved.
After riding, I learned about tipping, which is not common in Japan. I was told that if I enjoyed the experience, I should hand over a certain amount of dollars at the end, so I was able to do that smoothly.
During lunch, I made a phone reservation to ensure we could eat as soon as the restaurant opened, and by the time we arrived, our orders were ready. Hiro also provided us with unique experiences that we wouldn't find elsewhere until just before we parted ways.
I know I've written a lot, but I truly believe that the quality of the tour was largely due to the role of the tour coordinator. Although I suddenly switched from the more expensive canyon horseback riding plan to the more affordable seaside option, thanks to Hiro, I had a really enjoyable day. Of course, the difference in price for the plans was refunded the next day.
渓谷プランでスタートしましたが、乗馬は突然の中止(前日の雨で山の地面がぬかるんでいた上に当日も雨が降ったので尚更危険な状態となった)を言い渡されました。が、しかし即、天気の良かった海辺の乗馬に入れ込んでもらい
超楽しい時間を過ごせました。
最初のスタッフと変わったHiroさん、最後の最後まで最高でしたよ。
乗馬に行く前には、乗馬のスタッフは英語で注意事項を喋るからと、こんなことの説明があるとかの馬に乗るまでの流れ等々を詳細に話してくれました。非常に分かりやすく、初体験の私も安心して苦労することなく乗馬できました。
馬も大人しく、行儀も良かったですよ。
乗馬後は、日本には無いチップについて、こういう訳で、楽しかったと思たら◯ドルを最後に手渡してあげてくださいと馬場に向かう車内て教えてもらっていたので、すんなり手渡すこともできました。
昼食時には、開店と同時に食べられるように、注文を各人に聞いて店に電話予約、店に着いた頃には、本当に注文した食事ができている状態でした。他にもヒロさんには、他では味わえないことを解散直前までやってもらいました。
長々書き込んでいますが、ツアーの内容が良かったと感じるのは、やはり同行するツアーコーディネーターの役割が100%ですね
値段の高い渓谷乗馬プランから、安めの海辺乗馬に突然なりましたが、ヒロさんのおかげで、本当に楽しい一日を過ごせました。

We gathered early in the morning and arrived at the northern airport just before 7 AM. The explanation time was surprisingly short, and there was a sense of urgency to get going. Even though I didn't opt for video recording, I thought at least we could have some conversation, but the instructor was mostly focused on preparing without much interaction. It felt quite impersonal.
Once we took off in the Cessna, it was all very matter-of-fact. Well, I guess that’s just the instructor's personality. What I didn’t like was the way we descended after deploying the paraglider. It was a rapid descent with sudden stops and sharp turns—way too fast. My hips were hurting! Isn’t that a bit too self-centered?
Before I knew it, we were back on the ground. The instructor quickly packed up, probably because it’s just another day for them. After about 15 minutes of maintenance and a break, the instructor was off again with new guests.
I mean, it's fine to be calm and collected, but honestly, the roughness of the descent made me not want to tip. Even in business, I expected at least a minimum level of kindness. Just how many times do you have to do this to get it right? Please don’t treat customers roughly. I won’t be doing this again on Oahu.
早朝集合で、北部の空港着いたのが7時前。

その後、15分くらい整備片付けと休憩したインストラクターはまた新たな客人と空へ。

I participated with my mother (75 years old). Even seniors and beginners can enjoy a full hour and a half of horseback riding safely and happily. The female guide is very friendly. She also takes photos along the way (with your own smartphone or camera). You can experience walking on the sandy beach and through the "salad bar" (pasture, as the guide metaphorically describes it, since the horses love to eat grass), truly feeling like you're horseback riding in Hawaii! I definitely want to participate again.

I think there are various activities available, but skydiving probably requires the highest level of determination. When I actually tried it, I realized that it was something that demanded maximum guts, which I don't usually experience in my daily life. However, the experience gained from it allowed me to feel the sensation of free falling and the reality of flying while enjoying the wonderful scenery of Hawaii. It was truly an amazing experience.
いろいろなアクティビティはあると思いますが、スカイダイビングはおそらく最高難度の根性が必要なアクティビティだと思います。

I casually thought about wanting to do this and signed up, while getting my expectations up by looking at everyone’s reviews. However, when the day came, I got nervous and thought, "I hope I’ll be okay," feeling extremely anxious (laughs).
I had signed up for the morning plan, so I gathered at a nearby hotel before 5 AM. It took about an hour to arrive. When we got there, the sky was beautiful, and I could see a different kind of Hawaiian sky in Honolulu!
From there, we watched a video to learn how to skydive, and then it was just a matter of waiting for our turn... As my name was called and I saw others getting geared up, I enjoyed the thrill of anticipation (laughs). The instructor spoke in simple Japanese, which helped ease my nerves, but when we took off into the sky, I almost felt like I couldn’t do it. When the instructor told me, "We’re only halfway up," I panicked and thought, "Still!?" (laughs).
About eight groups flew up, and I was the last to dive. Watching everyone drop in front of me was shocking. At first, I couldn’t even scream from the impact of the dive, but soon I was shouting! When the parachute opened, the view and the feeling were amazing☆ As I was screaming my head off, the instructor found it amusing and made us spin, which was so much fun (laughs).
The skydive felt like it was over in an instant, but I already wanted to do it again! By the way, make sure to take motion sickness medication! I had taken some, but I felt the most nauseous when we landed on the ground (sweat). Also, tips were given in a box after the jump.
I jumped in late November, and it was a bit chilly, so I went in a short-sleeve shirt and a cardigan. Please keep this in mind!
やりたいな〜と軽く思って申し込み、皆さんの口コミを見て期待度を高めていました。が、いざ当日になると緊張してきて「大丈夫かな」と不安MAX(笑)
当日は午前のプランで申し込んでいたので5時前に近くのホテル集合。1時間ほどで到着しました。到着時、空が綺麗でホノルルの空は違ったハワイの空が見られました!
そこからはビデオを見てスカイダイビングの方法を知り、あとは順番待ち、、、
名前を呼ばれて装備していく周りの方の姿を見ながらドキドキ感を楽しみます(笑)
インストラクターさんは日本語を単語で話ながら緊張を解してくれたので余裕が出てきましたが、空に飛び立つと「飛べないかも」と挫折しそうになりました。「まだ半分の高さだよ」とインストラクターさんに教えて貰った時は「まだ!?」と焦りました(笑)8組ほどで空へ飛び、タイブするのは最後で目の前で次々と落ちて行く姿は衝撃的でした。
ダイブすると初めは衝撃で声も出ませんでしたがすぐに絶叫!!パラシュートが開くと絶景と気持ちよさで最高でした☆絶叫しまくっているとインストラクターさんも面白がり旋回させられめっちゃ楽しかったです(笑)
あっという間のスカイダイビングでしたが、すぐにまたやりたい!と思うほどです。
ちなみに、絶対に酔い止めは飲んでおいてください!薬は飲んでいましたが地上着陸時に1番酔いました(汗)
あとチップは飛んだあとに箱に入れる形式でした。
11月下旬に飛びましたが肌寒く半袖+カーディガンで行きました。是非、参考にしてください!

I was picked up by a shuttle. I felt anxious because the shuttle was delayed, possibly due to the crowded pickup area with various shuttles stopping, but if you wait patiently, it will come for you. So, those who request a pickup can wait at the designated spot without worry.
The zip line was really fun, but they explained some history along the way, and since I didn't understand English, I felt a bit left out while everyone else was laughing. I thought it was nice that other participants were able to engage in conversation in English. They demonstrated how to use the zip line, so that was fine. I think it would have been an even more enjoyable day if I understood English better.
シャトルで送迎してもらいました。
ピックアップが色んなシャトルが止まるところで混んでいたのかシャトルが遅れてきていて不安になりましたが、動かずにまっていたら来てくれるので、送迎を頼まれた方は心配せずピックアップの場所で待っていて大丈夫だと思います。
ジップラインはとっても楽しかったですが
途中途中でなにか歴史?を説明してくれていたのですが英語がわからずみんなが笑っている中、私たちはわからず疎外感が。笑
他の参加者には英語で話しかけたりしていて
楽しそうでいいなーと思いました。
ジップラインのやり方などは手本を見せてくれるので大丈夫でした。
もっと英語がわかればより楽しい日になったなと思いました。

The time for the Dole Plantation and Haleiwa sightseeing was very short.
Horseback riding was a lot of fun.
Since we arrived in Waikiki earlier than scheduled, I wished we could have explored Haleiwa a bit more.
It was great that we received various information about Hawaii during the ride.
ドールプランテーションとハレイワ観光の時間が非常に短かったです。
乗馬はとても楽しかったです。
予定時刻よりも早くワイキキに着いたので、だったらもう少しハレイワを観光したかったです。
車内でハワイ情報をいろいろ提供していただけたのはとても良かったです。

It was a private experience just for us! This was my second time riding, but this one was the best! The sunset viewed from the sandy beach is an unforgettable memory! I recommend going by car, though. It was a tough rural town without transportation, haha. We used Uber! The driver was a nice person and waited for us until we were done. It's better to go with plenty of time to spare. By the way, it's almost completely dark at night since there are hardly any streetlights.
私たちだけの貸し切りでした!乗馬2回目でしたが、こっちのが最高でした!砂浜から見る夕焼けは忘れられない思い出です!
ただ車で行くことをお勧めします。足がないと厳しい田舎町でした笑私たちはUber使用しました!運転手さんが良い人で終わるまで待っててくれました。時間に余裕を持って行った方が良いです。ちなみに夜はほぼ街頭がないので真っ暗です。

I enjoyed a leisurely horseback ride along the beach, greeting people who were fishing or taking walks. The scenery was truly wonderful. There are some bumpy paths, but I found them more enjoyable than riding on flat roads. While riding through the trees, my horse occasionally tried to veer off to eat grass, but I could keep it on track with the reins. Even if the horse didn't respond to my commands, I felt reassured knowing that the guides in front and behind me were there to help.
海辺をゆっくり乗馬しながら、釣りをしていたり散歩している人と挨拶したりもしました。景色が本当に素晴らしかったです。少しでこぼこした道がありますが、それも平坦な道を行くよりは楽しかったです。木々の中を乗馬していたら、馬がたまに草を食べに横道に行きそうになりますが、手綱で操作すれば真っ直ぐ進んでくれます。馬が指示を聞いてくれなくても前後のガイドの人が指導してくれるので安心でした。

I was really looking forward to it before doing it. I thought it would be expensive, but I am very satisfied! I'm glad I did it. The scenery was amazing, and the staff were kind. Although I couldn't communicate much in Japanese, I managed with my broken English, and there was someone in the same group who was fluent in English, so it was okay.
する前からとても楽しみでした。する前は、費用がかかるなぁと思っていましたが、大満足です◎
やって良かった。景色も最高だし、スタッフさん達も優しかったです。ほぼ日本が通じませんでしたが何とかカタコトの英語と同じグループには英語ができる堪能な人が居たので大丈夫でした。

There are 8 zip lines in total: 1 for practice and 7 for activities. They are much higher and longer than those in Japan. There are also rope climbing and suspension bridge crossing, which require quite a bit of physical strength. They pay great attention to safety, and there are plenty of water stations. However, the instructors only speak English, so a certain level of English proficiency is necessary.
練習用1本,アクティビティ用7本,計8本のジップライン.日本国内のものよりはるかに高く,長いものが多いです.
ロープクライムや吊り橋渡りなどもあり,かなり体力が必要.
安全にはとても配慮してくれるし,給水ポイントも豊富.
ただし,インストラクターは英語オンリーなので,それなりの英語力は必要.

I had an absolutely amazing time! (laughs)
I was quite nervous at first, but thanks to the kind staff, I was able to ride without any issues after just a 5-minute briefing. There were ups and downs, and suddenly we passed through a tunnel in the forest that felt like something out of My Neighbor Totoro, riding on horseback. We climbed rocky areas while keeping an eye on free-range cows—it was quite an adventure! Surprisingly, my backside didn't hurt much at all. I kept saying how fun and interesting it was, and even though the experience was supposed to last an hour, they let us ride for about an hour and a half!
They only spoke English, but they talked slowly and clearly, which actually made it feel more authentic. There were just the two of us and another group, so it felt like a private experience! It had more of a Western vibe than a Hawaiian one, though... (laughs)
Above all, the horses were great, and the danger level was zero (☆∀☆). My wife, who doesn't like animals, was able to pet them normally and felt comfortable! If you sign a waiver for accidents beforehand, you can ride without a helmet (laughs). This explanation was a bit complicated, though...
It was truly a wonderful experience that made me feel like I had the great outdoors all to myself and made me love horses even more!
メチャクチャ楽しんでしまいました!(笑)
