The pickup time for the hotel was about 10 minutes late, and at the meeting point, there was only a Korean couple besides us. They confirmed in broken English whether we were users of the Hanauma Bay shuttle service, which eased our anxiety a bit. After that, we were able to communicate with the Korean couple and had a valuable experience.
This was my fourth time at Hanauma Bay, and the restrictions are becoming stricter. The first time, the entrance fee was the only cost, but starting from the second visit, there was one day a week when the bay was closed, and from the third visit, it became two days a week. This time, I was surprised to find that it was completely reservation-only.
ホテルへのピックアップ時間が10分位遅れ、集合場所には私たち以外は韓国人夫婦でしたが、拙い英語でハナウマ湾シャトルサービスの利用者であるかの確認をし、少し不安が和らぎました。その後韓国人夫婦とコミュニケーションがはかれて貴重な体験が出来ました。
ハナウマ湾は、今回が4回目でだんだん制限が厳しくなりました。
最初の時は、入場料だけで2回目からは週1日休場日ができ3回目からは週2日休場になり、今回からは完全予約制でびっくりしました。

It was the best experience!!! First, we received a warm welcome from the friendly owner, Kaz, who provided us with an explanation about piloting (in Japanese, of course, and very easy to understand◎). After that, the pilot who would fly with us explained today's route and highlights using a model map of Oahu. He spoke in clear English, and if we didn't understand, the staff member nearby was always ready to interpret◎
Communication among passengers in the sky was done through headphones and a microphone. It was exciting to hear the pilot's communication with the control tower through the headphones! Once we entered stable airspace, I got to hold the control stick and actually pilot the plane, and I also experienced turning left and right over the ocean. We signed up for a plan to circle Oahu together, and I felt that landing at a local airport, Kalaeloa Airport, to switch seats was a unique experience that you can't have elsewhere (the departure and return were from Honolulu Airport).
I love the "Jurassic Park" movie series, and this time I was able to see Kualoa Ranch, the filming location, from above, which truly filled my heart with joy.
The team at Lani Lea Sky Tours was incredibly kind (when we returned, there was a snack party prepared, and we could eat as much as we wanted✨, plus we enjoyed some juice together), the view from the sky was amazing, and I never imagined I would get to hold the control stick of a plane in my lifetime, so it was an exhilarating and satisfying experience✨✨
Thank you so much❤️❤️❤️
最高の経験でした!!!まず、ホテルまでの送迎もしてくださる気さくなオーナーのカズさんから、操縦についての説明をしていただき(もちろん日本語・わかりやすい◎)、その後実際に私達と飛んでくださるパイロットから今日の航路や見所について、オアフ島の地図模型を用いて説明がありました。こちらはわかりやすい英語で話してくれますが、わからなければ側にいてくれる事務の方が随時通訳もしてくれます◎
空の上での同乗者間のコミュニュケーションは、ヘッドフォンとマイクで行います。パイロットと管制塔とのやりとりも、ヘッドフォンで聞くことができて刺激的です!安定した空域に入ったら操縦桿を握って実際に操縦させてもらい、海上では左右への旋回も体験させてもらいました️また、今回はふたりでオアフ島を一周するプランに申し込んだのですが、席替えをするために、途中でカラエロア空港というローカルな空港に降り立てたのも他ではできない経験だなと感じました(行き帰りはホノルル空港)
私は映画「ジュラシック・パーク」シリーズが大好きなのですが、今回はそのロケ地となったクアロアランチも上空から見ることができて、本当に胸がいっぱいになりました
Lani Lea Sky Toursの皆さんは本当に親切だし(帰ったらお菓子パーティーの用意がされていて、好きなだけ食べてね〜というスタイルでした✨また、一緒にジュースもいただけます)、空からの眺めは最高だし、この人生で自分が飛行機の操縦桿を握ることがあるとは思ってもみなかったので、大興奮&大満足な体験でした️✨✨
本当にありがとうございました❤️❤️❤️

I was able to fully immerse myself in the world of Jurassic Park. If you have a Japanese driver's license, anyone can drive! There are a couple of water spots in the first half and three in the second half, and if you step on the gas, you'll get as wet as if you were on a rapid slide, which is fantastic (laughs). If you're alternating driving with someone, you can switch every time you stop at a viewpoint, so both of you can experience it. Your face, hair, and clothes will definitely get dirty from the dust (and water), so if you're concerned, it might be a good idea to bring wet wipes or a change of clothes. The restrooms were clean! The instructor spoke English, and there was also one Japanese staff member, so it's reassuring! This time we used a buggy, but next time I want to try horseback riding and zip-lining as well.
ジュラシックパークの世界観にどっぷりハマることができました日本の免許を持っていけば誰でも運転できます️前半に一箇所、後半に三箇所ほどウォータースポット(水たまり?)があって、全力でアクセルを踏み込めば、急流滑りくらい濡れますが最高です(笑)ふたりで交互に運転するなら、ビュースポットで降りるたびに交代すればどちらも体験できます顔や髪、服は砂埃(と、水)でちゃんと汚れるので、気になる方はウェットティッシュや着替えを持っていくのがいいかもです。トイレは綺麗でした!インストラクターの方は英語話者の方ですが、お一人日本人の職員さんもおられるので安心です!今回はバギーでしたが、次回は乗馬やジップラインも体験してみたいです

It was truly like Jurassic Park.
There were various facilities in the ranch that I believe were used for filming the movie, and it brought back memories of Jurassic Park.
I had a valuable experience riding a four-wheeler through the ranch for almost an hour. I would like to visit again on another occasion.
ほんとうにジュラシックパークでした。

We were so excited to go swim at the sandbar and are so glad we decided to take a boat. Excursion includes a ride to the sandbar with refreshments, crew-led snorkeling, and free time. Was nervous that I wasn't able to swim too well for the snorkeling portion but Jayson was awesome and floated me & three other people through the deep water. Great experience for folks of all ages and backgrounds!

We had a couple of hours to fill before dinner reservations in Waikiki, so I convinced my partner to do the tour, since it was only 1 hour and we could get back in time for dinner. They had a shower on site which was very helpful lol. There are no sides on these ATVs so there is nothing to protect you from mud and you WILL get really dirty! But it’s worth it, we had sooo much fun. The courses were twisty and had lots of jumps and puddles. We talked about it the whole way home and all through dinner. I wanna go back and do the zipline, it looked like so much fun!

I love ATV rides, getting dirty and all that so I knew I had to try this place as soon as I saw it. It wasn’t like any other rides I’ve been on though, I’ve never tried a stand-up ATV. It was like a Segway and a regular ATV had a baby. Very cool, unique and fun!

This is NOT my usual idea of a good time... I was so nervous but the kids just had to go, so I went, despite my fears... but the tour guide, Kimo, was sooo nice, encouraging me without pushing me to do anything I was uncomfortable with, saying I had already done the hard part, just by coming here. The kids had a blast (apart from rolling their eyes at their lame dad). By the end I was zipping around and even doing jumps! I didn’t want it to end. I don’t know if I’ll ever get back to Hawaii, but if I do, Coral Crater will be first on my list of things to do.

It was my first time riding in a Cessna, and while I expected it to be bumpier than a commercial airplane, it was even more turbulent than I imagined. If you're prone to motion sickness, it's best to take some medication beforehand. The flight was scheduled for 10 AM, but we had to wait for a while due to the clouds. Therefore, it's better not to schedule anything right after the flight so you can relax while waiting. Although it was a shared flight, we couldn't enjoy the scenery to the east and west due to the clouds and wind, so we ended up flying back and forth over one side. However, since I prioritized the experience over the scenery, it wasn't a problem for me. I was also moved to see a rainbow from above.
セスナに乗るのは初めてで、旅客機と違って揺れることは想像していたが、こんなにも揺れるのかと想像以上だった。酔いやすい人は酔い止めを飲んでおいた方がいい。朝10時からのフライトだったが、雲の影響でしばらく待たされた。なので、フライトのあとの予定は極力入れない方がリラックスして待てる。交代してのフライトだったが、雲と風の影響で、東西の景色は楽しめず、片方のみを2往復する形のフライトとなったが、景色より経験を重視だったので特に問題なかった。虹を上から眺めることもできて感動した。

Meet at the location with a rental car. The parking lot is quite full and tight. After check-in, you have free time until the meeting time. After gathering, a summary of precautions is provided in a Japanese video.
Get on the Kawasaki off-road buggy and off we go. We proceed along a relatively well-maintained road, park at the first detour spot, and receive an explanation (in English). After this, we navigate up and down the road, stopping at about three points while squealing with excitement on our way to the final destination. Your face and clothes will get covered in sand, so it's advisable to cover your mouth with a bandana.

I had a horseback riding experience. The experience itself was very enjoyable, but the website stated an 8 AM meeting time and a 1 PM departure, so I planned for a half-day in the morning. However, it actually turned out to be an 8 AM meeting time and a 3:30 PM departure. After arriving at the site, we had to wait for 2 hours until the activity started, and after the activity ended, we waited another 2 hours until the bus departed, totaling 4 hours of waiting time. As a result, it took the whole day, and I had to cancel my afternoon plans. For these reasons, I think it's best for those making reservations to be cautious.
乗馬体験をしました。乗馬体験自体はとても楽しかったですが、サイトには8時集合13時出発とのことで午前の半日の予定をしていましたが、実際は8時集合15時半出発となり、現地到着後もアクティビティ開始まで2時間待ち、アクティビティ終了後も2時間バス出発まで計4時間待ち時間がありました。結果丸一日がかかり午後の予定をキャンセルせざるえませんでした。上記の理由から、予約される方はご注意された方がいいと思います。

This was my first time participating.
It was a snorkeling experience in the calm coral sea.
I can't swim at all, but I felt safe because I wore a life jacket and the staff guided me by pulling a float.
I was able to see many sea turtles and fish.
On the boat, we were served spam rice balls, snacks, and warm drinks.
Since February is the rainy season, we got caught in the rain on the way back, and it was cold.
I think it's a good idea to bring a hotel beach towel and a cover-up.

The staff, who spoke a little Japanese, kindly taught us, and we were able to get on the board quickly. My wife was with me, and she also got the hang of it right away, so we both had a lot of fun.
The one-hour session flew by, but it was just the right amount of physical activity. I was sore the next day. (laughs)
