We participated as a family of four during the summer vacation. The first dinner buffet was held in an open area outside the theater. During dinner, we were able to watch a hula show right next to our table, which made for an enjoyable dining experience.
The dinner menu featured local Hawaiian dishes such as furikake rice, huli huli chicken, taro sweet potato, and whole roasted pig. One drink, a Mai Tai, was included, and adults could choose an alcoholic version while the children were served non-alcoholic drinks. Those looking for a wide variety in the buffet might find it a bit lacking.
After dinner, we moved to the theater for a rock show. Upon entering the theater, there was a photo session for the participating groups, which would be sold at the exit before leaving. The show featured talents resembling Elvis and Michael (?), though the resemblance was subtle. Our elementary school-aged child didn’t know who Elvis or Michael was, but still had a good time.
In the latter part of the show, there was a fire performance similar to a luau, which was quite enjoyable. Considering the content, I think the cost performance is high at about $220 for the family of four.
夏休みに家族四人で参加しました。
最初のディナービュッフェがあり、シアターの外のオープンな場所での夕食でした。夕食中はフラのショーをテーブルの横で見ることができ、食事しながらフラショーを楽しめました。
夕食のメニューはフリカケライス、フリフリチキン、タロイモのスイートポテト、豚の丸焼きなど、ハワイのローカル食が中心です。飲み物はマイタイが1ドリンク付いていて、大人はアルコール入りを選べ、子供にはノンアルコールのものが出ました。
ビュッフェに品数を求められる方には物足りないかもしれません。
食後はシアターに移動してロックのショーです。シアターに入ると最初に参加グループの写真撮影がありましたが、これは帰る前に出口で販売するためのものです。
ショーはプレスリーやマイケルそっくりなタレント(?)によるものでした。そっくりの度合いは微妙です。小学生の子供は小学生なのでプレスリーはおろかマイケルも知りませんでしたが、それなりに楽しんでいましたよ。
ショーの後半にはルアウのような火を使ったショーもあり、十分に楽しめました。
この内容で家族四人でおよそ$220ならコストパフォーマンスは高いと思います。

I participated in the 5 PM reception. I was planning to return before the sunset, but thanks to the captain's arrangement, we were able to extend our time and see a very beautiful sunset. Thank you to the captain and the lovely bartender! Please be careful with your footing when boarding and disembarking, as the waves can be high and the stairs are narrow.

At the time of the reservation, I couldn't predict the weather, and unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day, so we couldn't see the sunset. However, everyone on the boat, including the staff and other guests, had a great time! When drinks ran out, the staff encouraged us to have more, so we could drink plenty. There are also restrooms on board, which is reassuring! The wind feels amazing! I would love to participate again when it's sunny!
予約の時点で天気の予想が出来ず、当日あいにく曇りでサンセットはみれませんでしたが、船の上でスタッフも他のお客さんもみんなで盛り上がりました!飲み物が無くなったらスタッフが進めてくれて沢山飲めます。トイレもついてるので安心です!風が凄く気持ちいいです!晴れてる時にまた参加したいなぁと思います!

I wanted my 2-year-old to experience sailing, so we participated! There were two other families with small children, and about 40% of the participants were Japanese.
I had expected mostly young foreigners based on the reviews, but surprisingly, there were quite a few older participants as well (laughs), and the atmosphere was quite relaxed. However, when the waves splashed, everyone got excited and started squealing, and as the drinks kicked in, we gradually began dancing to the music, enjoying the lively vibe of a different culture!
The captain and crew didn't speak Japanese, but they were friendly and cheerful, which made for a pleasant experience.
While some reviews mention negative experiences, I think those who enjoy drinking and having a good time will really enjoy this. We've participated in various activities during our trip to Hawaii, but my husband, who doesn't speak English, said this cruise was the most fun. The rocking of the boat is quite intense, making it perfect for those who love roller coasters! Conversely, if you're looking to enjoy a more serene sunset, you might want to choose a different cruise.
2歳児にセーリングを体験させたくて参加しました!他にも小さなお子様連れが2組いて、日本人参加者は全体の4割程度でした。
口コミを見て外国人は若者ばかりを覚悟していましたが、案外若くもなく(笑)落ち着いた感じでした。でも波しぶきがかかるとキャーキャー言って盛り上がり、酔いがまわると次第に音楽に合わせて踊り始め異国のノリを楽しめました♪
キャプテンやクルーは日本語を話せませんが、フランクな陽気な方でとても感じが良かったです。
口コミでたまに嫌な思いをされる方がいるようですが、お酒が好きで、ワイワイするのが好きな方でしたら楽しめると思います。このハワイ旅行で色々と参加しましたが、英語が話せない主人でもこのクルーズが一番楽しかったと言っています。揺れが激しいので、ジェットコースター好きな方にもピッタリです!
逆に、しっとりとサンセットを楽しみたい方は別のクルーズにされた方がいいかもしれません。

I participated in the premium Japanese guided tour from 10 AM with my 2-year-old child.
I had assumed the guide would be Japanese, but it turned out to be Jim, a tall Westerner who had previously lived in Japan and spoke very fluent Japanese. He was a gentleman with a kind personality, attentive to details, and very friendly towards children.
I joined this tour because I wanted to show my child the underwater world, so I didn't have high expectations for the tour itself based on the reviews. However, it was fun to see artificial reefs and sea turtles up close. I believe this was largely thanks to Jim's detailed explanations. As a licensed scuba diver, Jim had impressive knowledge, and his explanations were very thorough and enjoyable!
When I visit Hawaii next time, I definitely want to join this tour again, specifically hoping to have Jim as our guide. Thank you, Jim!
If you want to enjoy Jim's explanations on this tour, I recommend going down the stairs from the entrance on the right side when boarding the submarine to sit in the front row. You can also see the control seat and sit close to the guide, which is a great option!
10時〜のプレミアムの日本語ガイドツアーに2歳児を連れて参加しました。
てっきり日本人ガイドかと思いきや、ジムさんという長身の欧米人で、以前に日本に住まわれていた、とても上手な日本語を話される方でした。お人柄も紳士的で、細やかな気遣いをされる、子どもにも優しいとても素敵な方でした。
今回、子どもに海の中を見せてあげたく参加したので、口コミを見てツアー自体にはあまり期待はしていなかったのてすが、人工魚礁やウミガメを間近で見られて楽しかったです。それもやはりガイドのジムさんの細やかな解説のお陰かと思います。ジムさんはスキューバダイビングのライセンス保有者なので流石の知識量で、解説がとても細やかで楽しかったです!
次にハワイを訪れる際も、またこちらのツアーを是非ジムさん目当てで参加させて頂きたいと思います。ジムさん、ありがとうございました。
もし、このツアーでジムさんの解説を楽しみたいのであれば、潜水艦に乗り込むときに向かって右の入り口から階段を降りると先頭の席に座れます。操縦席も見られ、ガイドさんの近くに座れるのでオススメですよ☆

The weather was great, and the waves were calm, so as soon as we set sail, we encountered a large pod of dolphins! It was amazing to see dolphins coming from both directions! After that, we went snorkeling at a sea turtle spot, where we saw about four or five sea turtles, and our guide took some wonderful photos for us! The hamburger we had at the end was really delicious. The guides were all cheerful, and it was a very enjoyable and fulfilling tour!

We participated as a family of three (with a middle school daughter). We consulted with our guide, Mieko, about wanting to visit Kailua Town, and she gave us advice that allowed us to add bike rentals and extend our trip to Lanikai Beach and Kailua Town. Lanikai Beach has beautiful sand and clear water, and it was also less crowded, allowing us to relax. I'm glad we chose this course instead of the half-day option. There wasn't a single unnecessary item for enjoying the beach; everything was well thought out. The pizza for lunch was exquisite! The crust was perfectly baked, and we were amazed by its size, but we finished it all.
親子3人(娘中1生)で参加させて頂きました。
カイルアタウンも行きたいとガイドのみえこさんに相談し、アドバイスいただき、レンタサイクルを追加してでラニカイビーチ、カイルアタウンまで足を延ばすことができました。
ラニカイビーチは砂浜、海の綺麗さ素晴らしいです。また、人も少なくのんびりできました。半日コースではなくこちらのコースにしてよかったです。
ビーチアイテムも楽しむのに無駄なものは一つもなく、よく考えられているなと思いました。ランチもピザが絶品!生地がパリっと焼き上げられ大きいさに驚きながらも食べつくしました。

This tour is greatly enjoyed by my third-grade child. We booked the submarine tour here for the second time, following last year. The deciding factor was that they offered late boarding times. In Hawaii, there are plenty of activities, allowing you to schedule various tours in one day. On this day, we had a packed itinerary, enjoying snorkeling at Hanauma Bay after climbing Diamond Head for sunrise, followed by the submarine tour. As far as I searched, the only option for a 3 PM boarding reservation (confirmed the next day after the request) was through VELTRA, which allowed us to have a fulfilling day. The issuance of the reservation confirmation and the transportation service are comparable to other companies, so I highly recommend it. There is a Japanese audio guide available on board, so there’s no need to worry.
小3の子供が大変気に入っているツアーです。昨年に続き、2度目の潜水艇乗船をこちらで予約しました。決め手になったのは、遅い時間の乗船予約が可能だったからです。ハワイでは、アクティビティが充実しているので1日に様々なツアーを組むことができ、この日もダイヤモンドヘッド日の出登頂後にハナウマ湾でシュノーケルを楽しんだ後の潜水艇ツアーと盛り沢山な内容でした。検索した限り、15時の乗船予約(リクエスト後、翌日に確定)はVELTRAさんだけでしたので、おかげで充実した1日を過ごすことができました。予約確定書の発行や送迎も他社ツアーと遜色ないので大変オススメです。艇内ではイヤホンによる日本語ガイドがあるので特に心配不要です。

I hesitated about participating alone, but I'm really glad I tried it! First, there is time for the instructor to explain in detail how to use the paddle and the precautions. After that, we practice in the river before heading out to the ocean. It was clear that the instructor is very knowledgeable about the waves and wind, which made me feel safe and reassured. If you move as instructed, you can't go wrong!
For those who will be taking the SUP lesson, I prepared various things like a camera, hat, bath towel, and mat, but when we head out to the ocean, it's hands-free! I was told by the instructor several times to come with a strong mindset (laughs). The staff were all really bright and energetic, making it a fun memory in Kailua. I will definitely go again!
一人参加は迷いましたが、トライして本当に良かったです‼︎ まず、インストラクターの方から細かくパドルの使い方や注意事項を説明してくれる時間があります。その後 川で練習をしてから海へ出ます。インストラクターさんは波や風の事を大変熟知しておられるのだなというのが良くわかり安心しできました。言う通りに動けば間違い無し‼︎

At 7 AM, we were picked up from the hotel and headed to Hanauma Bay, which has been selected as the No. 1 best beach. This shallow sea, formed from a collapsed volcanic crater, is teeming with fish. You can swim surprisingly close to them.
The reason for the early morning start is that the parking lot fills up quickly. Due to conservation efforts, the parking capacity is small, and once it reaches full capacity, the gates are closed. During this time before the summer vacation in Japan, there are fewer Japanese tourists, and many locals are present. Also, there are plenty of cats on the beach.
And guess what!! A large guest, a seal, was there. Previously, they could only be seen a few times a year, but now it seems they are visiting almost every day.
Chieko from Blue Hawaii Divers kindly explained how to use the snorkel, and as soon as I dipped my face into the water, I could see fish right in front of me at a depth where I could still stand. As I continued swimming among the schools of fish, I finally spotted a sea turtle. Since it was featured in the educational video about Hanauma Bay, I kept my distance and was able to swim alongside it.
早朝7時のホテルピックアップでNo.1ベストビーチにも選ばれたハナウマ湾に。元々火口だったところが落ち込んでできた遠浅の海に魚がいっぱい。
びっくりするくらい近くで泳ぐことがでできます。
朝がやたらと早い理由は駐車場がいっぱいになってしまうからだそう。
自然保護のためか駐車場のキャパシティーが小さいので、いっぱいになった時点でゲートを閉じてしまうそうです。

そしてなんと!!大きな先客、アザラシ君が。
以前は年数回しか見られなかった彼らですが、今ならほぼ毎日と言っていいくらい訪れているみたいです。

Although the pickup was early in the morning, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your time with the seals, green sea turtles, and the cats.

I had wanted to go horseback riding in Hawaii for a long time, so I was really looking forward to this trip. It takes about an hour from Waikiki, so I was glad I opted for the pickup service. I chose the two-hour course because I wanted to ride in the Kualoa Valley. There were six of us and one instructor. My horse was a bit of a glutton and kept eating the grass along the path, which was a bit troublesome, but it wasn't dangerous, and the instructor quickly came over to scold the horse.
My mother was anxious before riding, but she said it wasn't scary once she got on. However, being in her 60s, she mentioned that her backside started to hurt, so she felt one hour would have been enough for her. I, on the other hand, had no such issues and really enjoyed riding amidst the beautiful scenery.
以前からハワイで乗馬がしたかったので、今回楽しみにしていました。ワイキキから1時間くらいかかるので送迎付きにしてよかったです。クアロアの渓谷を乗馬したかったので2時間コースにしました。6人とインストラクター一人でした。私の馬は食いしん坊でよく道の草を食べていて困りましたが危険ということはなく、すぐにインストラクターの方が来て馬を叱ってくれました。
母も乗る前は不安がっていましたが、乗ったら怖くなかったといっていました。ただ60代ということもあったのかお尻が痛くなってしまったので1時間で充分だったと言っていました。私はそういうこともなく綺麗な景色の中を乗馬できてとても楽しかったです。

I booked the evening cruise on the fourth day. Be careful, as it looks nothing like the catalog images. As soon as we got out to Diamond Head, the waves of the open sea caused a lot of up-and-down motion... Personally, it was the best activity, but I definitely do not recommend it for those who get motion sickness.
4日目の夕方乗船で予約。カタログ画像と全く違うので要注意。ダイヤモンドヘッド沖まで出たとたん、外洋の波でアップダウンの激しい揺れが・・・。個人的には最高のアクティビティーでしたが、乗り物酔いする方には絶対にお勧めしません。

I quickly found the reception area since I had researched it in advance. I arrived at the meeting time of 2:30 PM and was told to return by 3:00 PM, so I waited right in front. However, even at 3:00 PM, it seemed like the reserved guests hadn't arrived, and they were discussing something while looking at the list, which delayed our boarding. In the end, it was just our group and a family of three that set sail. It was nice to have the boat to ourselves and enjoy the view of Waikiki Beach from the ocean, but when we went further out towards Diamond Head, it was a bit scary. If we could have seen dolphins or something, it might have been more enjoyable, but I started to feel a bit bored. Since I can't speak English, the staff kindly checked on me in Japanese to see if I was okay.
受付場所は事前に調べていたのですぐにわかりました。集合時間14:30に到着し50分に戻って来てと言われたのですぐ前で待っていましたが、15:00になっても予約客が来ないのか名簿を見ながら何やら話してなかなか乗船出来ませんでした、結局私達と3人家族だけで出航しました。貸切状態でゆったりできワイキキビーチを沖から見ているでは良かったけれど、延々沖(ダイヤモンドヘッドの方)へ出た時ちょっと怖かったかな。イルカとか何か見れたらもう少し楽しめたかもですがちょっと退屈してきました。英語が話せないのでスタッフは大丈夫?と日本語で気遣ってくれました。

I have seen hula shows here and there, but this one portrayed the story of life—from birth to death, and the birth of children—performed with great intensity by a total of 100 dancers, making it enjoyable without getting bored. It's a bit of a distance from Waikiki, but even for those who have seen many hula shows, I believe this show is definitely something to see when you come to Hawaii.
あちらこちらでフラのショーは見ましたが、こちらのは人の誕生から死、子の誕生というように人生のストーリーが総勢100名のダンサーによって大迫力で演じられていて、飽きずに楽しめました。ワイキキからはちょっとありますが、またフラのショーをたくさん見られた方でも、ここのショーはハワイに来られたら是非見るべきものだと思います。

I'm glad I was able to see the dolphins, but I felt that the time spent on other activities (like the staff's performance) was a bit wasted compared to the time swimming with the dolphins. I think it would have been better to visit a few more spots to increase the time spent swimming with the dolphins.
イルカは見ることができて良かったのですが、イルカと泳げた時間に対して、それ以外(スタッフさんのパフォーマンス等)の時間が勿体なかったかな?何ヵ所かポイントを回ってイルカと泳ぐ時間を増やす方が良かったと思います。
Thank you for your comment. Regarding the time spent swimming with the dolphins, we determine the duration with consideration for the dolphins' well-being. We completely understand your feelings, but Dolphin & You is an eco-friendly tour that respects nature, so we appreciate your understanding.
コメントありがとうございます。イルカと泳ぐ時間についてですが、イルカへの負担を考えて泳ぐ時間を決めております。お気持ちはすごくわかりますが、ドルフィン&ユーはエコフレンドリーツアーでもあり、自然への敬意を払ってツアーを行っておりますので、ご了承いただけると幸いです。

At the entrance, we were welcomed with a hula dance and enjoyed a welcome drink of Mai Tai (which we could choose to be alcoholic or non-alcoholic) as we entered.
We had dinner first, followed by the show.
The dinner consisted of delicious dishes! Our waiter didn't speak Japanese, but he listened carefully to what we were saying and communicated in clear English, so we were able to enjoy ourselves without feeling confused by any unclear English.
When he asked if we were celebrating a special occasion and I replied that it was our honeymoon, we received a complimentary bottle of champagne!
The show lasted about an hour, with dancers changing frequently and presenting various performances, and it went by in no time.
入り口ではフラダンスのお出迎えがあり、ウェルカムドリンクのマイタイ(アルコールかノンアルコールか選べました)を飲みながら入場しました。
先にディナーがありその後にショーです。
ディナーはどれも美味しいお料理でした!担当のウェイターは日本語は話せませんでしたがこちらの言っていることをよく聞いてくれて、英語でしたが分かりやすく話してくれたので分からない英語でモヤモヤすることもなく楽しむことができました。
今日は記念日なの?と聞かれたのでハネムーンだと答えたらシャンパンのプレゼントがありました!
ショーは1時間ほどですが次々とダンサーが入れ替わって色々なショーがあり、あっという間でした。
Thank you very much for watching the Rock of Ages show. Congratulations on your honeymoon! We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed it. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

I saw in the reviews that there wouldn't be any staff who spoke Japanese, so I participated, but there were some! Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy myself without any trouble.
Since it was in the mountains, I thought the sunlight would be strong, so I applied plenty of sunscreen and wore long sleeves. However, my arms, nose, and cheeks, which were exposed when I rolled up my sleeves a bit, got sunburned bright red.
The staff wore helmets over hats with brims, so if you're concerned about sunburn, I think it's a good idea to do the same.
The price is high, but everything in Hawaii tends to be on the expensive side, so it can't be helped.
体験談を見て 日本語を話せるスタッフさんがいないとわかって参加しましたが いました❗お陰で 困る事なく楽しく過ごせました
山なので日差しが強いと思い 日焼け止めをたっぷり塗って 長袖を着ていきましたが ちょっと袖をまくってたら 出てた腕と鼻とほっぺが真っ赤に日焼けをしてしまいました
スタッフさんたちは つばのある帽子の上にヘルメットをかぶってたので 日焼けが気になる方は そうされた方がいいかと思います
金額は高いですが ハワイでは 何もかもお高めなので 仕方ないですね~

I wanted to go on a buggy ride (I had been on a tour before and this time I just wanted to do the buggy), so I chose this affordable plan. However, I was worried about having to gather at the meeting point. Taking a taxi would require a lot of money, and I was scared to drive a rental car (I have no experience with left-hand drive and driving on the right side), so I was unsure what to do. I found out online that I could also take The Bus, so I decided to give it a try.
The Bus costs $2.75 one way, but a day pass is $5.50, so considering the return trip, it’s better to buy the day pass for peace of mind (you won’t have to worry if you make a mistake! You can also stop for a restroom break or shopping!). You just need to hand cash to the driver when you get on the bus and say something like, “One day, please.” I don’t think tipping is necessary.
The Bus to Kualoa Ranch departs from the Ala Moana Shopping Center. The number is 55. The starting point is on the mountain side, but it also goes by the ocean side bus stop, so either way is fine. The ocean side bus stop requires a short walk towards the airport (opposite of Waikiki) from the trolley stop.
It takes about an hour to arrive. There’s an electronic display board at the front of the bus, similar to Japanese buses, where you can check the destination. The stops will be Kualoa Maintenance, Kualoa Regional Park, and then Kualoa Ranch. It’s safer to press the stop request button (or pull the cord) a bit earlier than in Japan. Even if Kualoa Ranch doesn’t show up on the display after passing Regional Park, it’s better to press it just in case. However, since there will likely be other people getting off, you might not need to worry too much about it. Just be careful not to miss your stop.
Also, the bus can be very cold, so those who are sensitive to the cold should be cautious.
As for the meeting place, there wasn’t any specific designation. After passing through the visitor center, there’s a ticket office, and suddenly, a local staff member who speaks Japanese will start explaining things (not at the ticket office, but further back in a grassy area). If you’re unsure, it’s quickest to ask any staff member if there’s someone who speaks Japanese.
In any case, you will need to show your voucher at the ticket office to receive your buggy ticket. After getting the ticket, go to the buggy check-in (marked as ATV) about 10 minutes before it starts, where you’ll be asked to sign a document stating you won’t complain if you get injured. After signing, you’ll be guided to a small hut where you can watch a Japanese explanation video. After that, you’ll put on a helmet (available in sizes S, M, L) and large transparent glasses for allergies before getting on the buggy.
From there, the experience is similar to others, so I’ll skip the details. Just go with the flow. There are various people, and some may not drive well, so it can go quite slowly. It’s important to have an open mind and be prepared for that. Instead of trying to go fast or keep up with the person in front, the key is to enjoy the scenery safely.
The course is quite bumpy, so it’s best to be careful not to go off course or bump into the person ahead of you while having fun. They will take photos along the way, which you can buy at the end for $15. However, they will also take pictures with your own camera (for free), so if you can take your own photos, you might not need to buy theirs.
自分はバギーをしたかったので(以前にツアーで行ったことがあり、今回はバギーのみしたかった)、安いこちらのプランにしました。ただ、現地に集合しないといけない点が不安でした。
タクシーで行くならかなり大金が必要になり、レンタカーは運転が怖かった(左ハンドル、右側通行の経験なし)のでどうしようかなと。
ネットでThe Busでも行けるとのことで、試しに行ってみました。
The Busは片道2.75ドルですが、一日乗車券が5.5ドルなので、帰りの分を考えると一日乗車券を購入した方が精神的な安定を保てます(もし間違えても大丈夫!途中でトイレやショッピングモールに寄りたくなっても大丈夫!)。どちらもバスに乗る際に運転手さんに現金を渡し、「ワンデー プリーズ」とか言えば大丈夫です。チップは不要と思います。
クアロアランチへのThe Busはアラモアナショッピングセンターから出ています。番号は55番です。裏側(山側)が始発となっていますが、海側のバス停を経由しますので、どちらに行っても大丈夫です。海側のバス停はトロリーの乗り場より空港方面(ワイキキ方面と逆)に数分歩く必要があります。
大体1時間くらいで着きます。バスの前方に日本のバスみたいな電光掲示板があり、行き先を確認することができます。クアロアランチのバス停の前からクアロア○○というのが続きます。Kamehameha Hwy(カメハメハハイウェイ)ーKualoa Maintenance→Kualoa Resional Park→Kualoa Ranchの順で止まります。Stop Request(停止ボタン、もしくは縄みたいなのを引く)は日本より早めに押します。Resional Parkが過ぎたあたりで電光掲示板にKualoa Ranchが出なくても押した方が無難です。ただ、他にも降りる人がいると思うので、そこまで気にしなくても良いかもしれません。寝過ごさないように注意が必要です。
あと、バスの中はとても寒いので、寒さに弱い人は注意が必要です。
集合場所については、特に指定もありませんでした。ビジターセンターを抜けるとチケットオフィスがあり、気がついたら突然日本語を話せる現地のスタッフの説明が始まります(チケットオフィスではなく、さらに奥の原っぱみたいな所です)。分からなければ、まずは誰でも良いので日本語のスタッフがいないか、そこの辺にいるスタッフに聞くのが早いです。
ただ、いずれにしても、チケットオフィスでバウチャーを見せて、バギーのチケットをもらうことには変わりはありません。チケットをもらったら、始まる10分前にバギーの受付(ATVと書いてあります)に行くと、まずは怪我しても文句を言いません的な書類にサインをしろと言われます。そこにサインをすると次に日本語の説明ビデオを見れるような小屋に案内され、ビデオが流れます。それを見てから、その小屋内にあるヘルメット(サイズはS、M、Lなど)、花粉症用みたいな透明、大きめのメガネをつけてバギーに乗ります。それ以降は他の体験談と同じなので割愛します。なるようになります。色々な人がおり、運転が下手な人もいるため、すごいゆっくりになることもあります。その辺の覚悟、広い心は必要です。速く走ることや前の人について行こうと頑張るよりは、安全かつ周りの景色を楽しみながら行くのがコツと思います。
結構凸凹してますので、コースアウトしないことや前の人にぶつからないように注意して楽しむのが良いと思います。
途中で写真を撮られ、それは最後に15ドルで売ってます。でも自分で持ってきたカメラでも写真を撮ってくれますので(もちろんタダ)、自分たちのカメラで撮れれば必要ないと思います。

It was an awesome experience. The crew was very friendly and nice. The bus was nice and new and comfortable. I however did get a little sea sick so I would recommend taking motion sickness pills to help. Also I would bring a towel
Aloha Tobi,
Mahalo for your 5-Star review! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Motion sickness medication is a great recommendation, especially if it is something a guest is prone to. We offer PSI bands for sale on every tour for those who forget, as well. We are glad you enjoyed the crew and were comfortable on the bus. Please come again some day, and consider joining us for our other And You Creations tours! Aloha!

It was my first horseback riding experience, and I decided to go for the 2-hour course based on everyone's reviews (^O^). To be honest, my butt got really sore, haha. At the beginning, they showed a Japanese explanation video, but during the experience, I managed with English and gestures. After a while of walking through the mountains, we caught sight of the ocean, entered the ranch, passed by the filming location of Jurassic Park, and occasionally crossed rivers and sped up. It was quite a fulfilling 2 hours!!
初めての乗馬体験でしたが、みなさんの口コミを頼りに思い切って2時間コースにしてみました(^O^)
正直言って、お尻がめちゃくちゃ痛くなりました笑
始めに日本語の説明ムービーを流してくれますが、体験中は英語とジェスチャーで乗り切りました。山の中をしばらくお散歩したあと、途中で海が見えてきて、牧場の中に入り、ジェラシックパークの撮影現場を通過し、たまに川を越えたり、スピードアップしたりと、なかなか充実した2時間でした!!
