I've been to Kualoa several times, but this time I participated in a beginner-level mountain biking event with friends! I was worried since I don't usually ride a bike, but it was only at the beginning that I felt unaccustomed. By the time we turned back, I was getting used to the speed and wanted to ride even more! The instructor was fantastic! They were very responsive and kind, even when there was a gear issue along the way. Surrounded by magnificent scenery, mountain biking became an incredibly fun memory! I definitely want to participate again! Next time, I want to challenge myself at the intermediate level!
クアロアへは何度か行ったことがありますが、今回は友人とマウンテンバイク初心レベルに初参加しました!
普段自転車も乗っていないので心配でしたが、乗り慣れずは…最初だけ。折り返しの道のりでは、スピードにも慣れてもっと乗りたい気分でした!
インストラクターの方もサービス満点!
ナイスロケーションでのショットや途中でギアが外れてしまうトラブルにも敏速に親切な対応^_^
壮大な素晴らしい景色に囲まれてマウンテンバイクは最高に楽しい思い出となりました!
また是非、参加したいです^_^
次回は中級レベルに挑戦したいなー(^。^)

It's hard to decide which experience to choose, but the electric assist mountain bikes are easy to ride even for us (a couple in our 50s) who don't ride bicycles regularly, and we can easily climb hills. Just be careful with sudden brakes on downhill slopes. We stopped at recommended spots along the way. The local staff were also very courteous in guiding us. Our clothes didn't get too dirty either. Above all, riding a mountain bike is truly the best way to experience Kualoa. The atmosphere allows for natural smiles and interactions with the foreign guests we were with. Unfortunately, our English skills... we couldn't fully understand the staff's detailed explanations at those spots.
どの体験をするか迷いますが、電動アシストマウンテンバイクは日頃自転車に乗っていない私達(50代夫婦)も容易に運転ができしかも楽に坂道も登れます。降り坂は急ブレーキに注意。途中オススメのスポットには停車。現地スタッフの方々も丁寧に案内してくれます。服装もさほど汚れることはありません。何と言ってもクアロアを肌で感じるには本当にマウンテンバイクは最高です。途中から同行の外国人の方々とも自然に笑顔を交わせるような雰囲気になります。残念なのは私達の英語力…。スタッフの方のそのスポットでの丁寧な説明が理解出来ず。

We participated as a couple. The tour guide was very fun and kind, and thanks to them, we had the best experience. I would like to join this tour again next time.
Here is some information to share:
- The explanations were in English, but important points were translated using a translation app.
- In the experience report, it was mentioned that photography was not allowed at the fallen tree in Jurassic Park, but there was actually a good amount of time for photos later on.
- The guide took many pictures of us at great locations, creating wonderful memories.
- At the end, everyone in my tour group was giving tips of about $10 to $20 each.
夫婦二人で参加しました。ツアーガイドさんがとても楽しく親切な方で、お陰様で最高の体験が出来ました。次回もこのツアーに参加したいと思います。
以下、情報共有まで。
・説明は英語なのですが、重要な箇所は翻訳アプリを使って翻訳してくれました。
・体験談では、ジュラシックパークの倒木の箇所で撮影は出来ないと書かれてありましたが、後半の方にしっかり撮影時間がありました。
・ガイドさんが絶好のロケーションでたくさん写真を撮ってくれるので、素敵な思い出が形になります。
・終了時に、私が参加したツアーの皆さんは大体1人10~20$のチップを渡していました。

I had to quickly book this tour because the buggy tour was sold out, but it turned out great. On the day of the tour, we were picked up at 7:30 at the Sheraton Aloha Landing, and there was a briefing for all the tours at the site (since my English isn't very good, we could hardly understand anything, only the e-bike registration and the location of the restroom). There were six participants in total: a couple from Europe, a couple from Korea, and us, plus the guide, which made for a small group. At registration, we were instructed to store larger bags in lockers. You can buy drinks on-site, but they're not particularly cheap, so I recommend bringing your own.
The instructions on how to operate the e-bike and safety precautions were provided in a video with Japanese subtitles, which was helpful. My wife, who usually only rides a regular bike, was a bit scared, but there was practice before we started, and she seemed to get used to it and enjoy the ride. The small group size and the guide's constant consideration made us feel at ease.
We stopped at filming spots and beautiful views to take photos with the guide. The scenery was amazing! There were many spots where we encountered people on buggies or trolley tours; while the routes were different, I think they covered similar highlights. I had originally aimed for the buggy tour, but seeing the buggies moving slowly in a line made me realize it wasn't the thrilling experience I had imagined. The e-bike allowed me to go at my own pace, and both the handling and speed felt fantastic, leaving me very satisfied.
We returned to the starting point at 11:30 and finished by buying hamburgers at a restaurant (the taste was average), had lunch, and departed for home at 1:00 PM. I chose the morning-only tour, and it was just right.
バギーツアーが売り切れたため急遽こちらのツアーを予約しましたがよかったです。当日はシェラトンのアロハランディングに7:30ピックアップ、現地で全てのツアーまとめてブリーフィングがありました(英語が苦手な私達はほとんど聞き取れず、e-bikeの受付とトイレの場所だけ理解できました)。e-bikeは欧米人夫婦、韓国人夫婦と私達夫婦の6人の参加者+ガイドさんの少人数でした。受付時に荷物が大きい方はロッカーに預けるよう指示されます。現地で買えますが、特別安くはないので飲み物持参をオススメします。
操作法や注意事項の説明は動画で、日本語字幕があり助かりました。普段ママチャリしか乗らない妻は怖がっていましたが、スタート前に練習もあり、道中は慣れて楽しめたようです。少人数で、ガイドさんが常に気遣ってくださったのも安心でした。
映画の撮影スポットや景色がいいところで自転車を止め、その都度ガイドさんに写真を撮っていただけました。景色最高です!途中でバギーやトロリーツアー?の方々とも一緒になるスポットも多く、ルートは違うのでしょうが共通点もあり見どころは押さえてあると思います。もともとバギーツアーを狙っていましたが、バギーがゆっくり列で進んでいたのを見ると、私がイメージしていた疾走感のあるものではなさそうだったので、自分のペースで進めるe-bikeは操作感、疾走感ともに非常に気持ちがよく大満足でした。
11:30にスタート地点に戻って終了、レストランでハンバーガーを買って(味は普通)、ランチを済ませて、13:00出発で帰宅しました。午前だけのツアーを選びましたが丁度良かったです。

The assisted mountain bike is amazing! You can easily climb hills while sitting down. The exhilaration of racing through nature on a mountain bike is exceptional. Additionally, at the photo spots, you have a reasonable amount of time to take breaks. The bike used is the Trek Rail, available in three sizes: S, M, and L.

It was a beginner course, so I thought it would be easy, but there were some challenging parts that made it very interesting. Our guide was a man named Luis, and he spoke English slowly, which made it easy for the children to understand, and they were happy about that. He also showed a lot of consideration, and I think it’s a tour that can be enjoyed by a wide range of generations along with the magnificent scenery.
The only area for improvement is the amount of downtime. We departed from Waikiki at 7:45 AM and arrived around 9:00, but the tour didn’t start until 11:30. After the two-hour tour, the return to the hotel was initially scheduled for 5:30 PM. It would have been nice to have some events to participate in, but everything was popular and sold out, so we ended up with quite a bit of free time. I asked the local staff to change to the 3:30 PM bus, but even then, we still had a lot of time to spare. I felt it would be great if there could be an improvement where we could choose the pickup time during the reservation stage.
初心者コースですので、楽々かな、と思っていたら、そこそこハードな部分もあってとても面白かったです。ルイスさんというガイドでしたが、英語をゆっくりと話してくれるので、子供たちも分かりやすかったと喜んでいました。また、いろいろ心配りもしてくれて、雄大な景色とともに、幅広い世代で楽しめるツアーだと思います。
唯一改善点は、ロスタイムの多さです。朝7:45ワイキキ出発で、9時ぐらいに到着ですが、ツアー開始は11:30。また、2時間のツアー後、ホテルへの送りは、当初17:30出発となっていました。何か参加できるイベントがあればいいのですが、どれも人気があってSold Outなので、かなり時間を持て余してしまいます。現地のスタッフにお願いして、15:30 のバスに変更してもらいましたが、それでもまだかなり余裕がありました。予約段階で、送迎時間を選択できるような改善ができるといいのにな、と感じた次第です。

Unfortunately, it rained lightly during my visit, but I was able to fully enjoy the magnificent nature. Riding the electric bike was a breeze! The guide spoke English and provided thorough explanations, which made me feel comfortable participating. As mentioned in other comments, if you're concerned about mud (which may include natural animal waste and horse manure), it's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty. I brought disposable plastic shoe covers that I purchased from a 100 yen shop in Japan, and they turned out to be better than I expected, so I recommend them. Please refer to the photos for information about coin lockers and raincoats.
残念ながら小雨の日にかかってしまいましたが、壮大な自然を満喫できました。電動自転車でラクラクでした!ガイドさんは英語ですが丁寧に説明いただいたので安心して参加できました。他の方のコメントにもありますが、泥ハネ(自然動物や馬の糞を含む)を気にされる方は、汚れても良い格好でいくのがいいです。日本から100均で購入したビニールの使い捨て靴カバーを持って行きましたが、思ったより良かったのでおすすめです。

The local tour was very satisfying! The bus to the destination took a while to arrive, and when it finally did, it passed the meeting point and picked up passengers in front of a different hotel. Fortunately, someone else was inquiring about the bus information from the tour company, and we found out it was indeed the pickup bus, which saved us from any issues. However, I think it would be reassuring to have the bus company's information in advance and to receive updates if there are any changes to the pickup location.
現地ツアーは大満足です!
行きのバスがなかなか来ず、来たと思ったら集合場所前を通り過ぎて別のホテルの前でピックアップになりました。たまたま他の方がツアー会社にバスの情報を問い合わせていて、迎えのバスであることが分かりことなきを得ましたが、事前にバス会社の情報や、ピックアップ場所の変更があれば新しい情報が分かると安心できるかなと思いました。

We started with a total of about 12 people from Hyatt. It was easy to get to the top of the hill by car. The bicycles have brakes on the handlebars, just like in Japan, so if you're used to riding, it's a breeze. An instructor led the way at the front, and a van driven by another staff member followed us at the back, which was reassuring. We stopped at scenic spots along the way to take photos. The views of Waikiki and the west side were both very beautiful. Although the details mentioned snacks and mineral water would be included, those were not provided. Our family had brought water, so it wasn't a problem.
Thank you! I loved this experience.

We were torn between the four-wheeler and the e-bike experience, but since it was just the two of us, we chose the e-bike. As a couple in our fifties, we were concerned about our stamina, but the e-assist was quite powerful (with three levels), so that was not an issue. However, please note that those under 150 cm may have difficulty reaching the ground.

We participated as a family (father, mother, a high school sophomore son, and a junior high school daughter). My daughter hadn't ridden a bicycle in a long time, so she was anxious and initially said she didn't want to ride, canceling her reservation. However, just before the event, she decided she wanted to participate after all and made a new reservation. I felt a bit sorry about the changes, but I really appreciate how smoothly VELTRA handled the cancellations and changes in the number of participants!
On the day of the event, there was some traffic on the highway, so we arrived slightly late, but the schedule had enough buffer time before the activity started, so it was fine.
The activity involved our family of four along with two couples, making a total of eight participants, with one instructor guiding us all as we rode around the ranch. At the beginning, we watched a safety video, chose our bicycles, and practiced a bit before setting off.
My daughter was right at the height limit, so she couldn't quite reach the ground while seated and looked anxious, but she seemed to get the hang of it after a while. I think if you're around 155 cm tall, you should be able to reach the ground comfortably. Additionally, one of the younger female participants seemed a bit scared of the speed at times and struggled to keep up, but the instructor rode slowly to help her, and she managed to complete a lap. Since we rode on unpaved slopes, it might be a bit intimidating for those who are not used to cycling.
Overall, it felt fantastic to zip through such beautiful scenery, and everyone at the facility was very kind (though they didn't speak Japanese), making it the best activity! I think families, couples, and even solo travelers can enjoy it!
家族(父、母、高2男子、中2女子)で参加しました。
娘は久しく自転車に乗っていなかったので不安がっており乗りたくないと言って一旦一人だけ予約をキャンセルしました。
しかし直前になってやはり参加したいと言い出し、再度予約。
申し訳ないなぁと思いつつ、キャンセルや人数変更の手配がとてもスムーズにできたのでVELTRAさんには感謝です!
当日は高速道路の渋滞などもあり集合時間に若干遅れてしまいましたが、アクティビティ開始までは多少余裕をもった時間設定になっていたためセーフでした。
アクティビティは私たち家族4人と、他に男女のカップルが2組いて、計8人に対してインストラクターが一人ついて全員で一緒に牧場内を走行します。
開始時には安全確認のための映像を見て、各自自転車を選び、少し練習をしてから出発です。
娘は身長制限ギリギリだったので座った状態ではぴったり足がつかず不安そうでしたが慣れると大丈夫そうでした。
155cmくらい身長があると足がつくイメージかと思います。
また、同行メンバーの若い女性の方は途中スピードが怖かったのか、なかなか流れについて来れない場面もありましたがインストラクターの方がゆっくり走ってくれたり、どうにか1周していました。舗装されていない坂道を走ったりするので自転車に抵抗のある方にとっては少し怖いのかもしれません。
とにかく景色のいいところを颯爽と駆け抜けていくのがとても気持ちよくて、施設の方もみんな親切で(日本語は通じません)、最高のアクティビティでした◎家族、カップル、ひとりでも楽しめると思います!

We signed up for a mountain bike tour for three people! Just before the tour, there was a video explanation with Japanese subtitles, which made us feel secure about the operation. The guide also explained everything again in English.
During the tour, we were shown filming locations from Jumanji and Jurassic Park, and they even took photos of us using our phones, making it a bright and fun experience.
We were able to feel the vastness of nature and see famous filming locations during the fulfilling two-hour tour. There are some ups and downs on the path, but with gear adjustments, even women can ride smoothly. It’s not just non-stop riding; there are breaks at scenic spots and filming locations, so it’s not too tiring. Since there can be mud splashes, it’s recommended to wear darker clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty rather than light-colored ones!

広大な自然を感じることができ、有名なロケ地を実際に見て充実した2時間ツアー。アップダウンの道もありますがギアの調節をすれば女性でもスイスイ行けます。ずーっと走りっぱなしではなく景観の良い場所やロケ地などではバイクを降りて休憩もあるのでそれほど疲れません。

I rode the smallest mountain bike. It was tough at first, but once I got used to it, it was a breeze. I rode 9.5 kilometers, and since it was electric, I didn't get tired at all going uphill! I was worried about the weather in the morning, but by the time of the activity, it had cleared up completely, and the greenery of the mountains was even more beautiful. The color of the sea from the high ground was incredibly stunning and moving!
However, the path was muddy, and the splashes from the bike tires were quite something. It was a rare experience to get muddy at my age. Since the weather was uncertain, it was a good idea to bring a change of clothes (there are paid lockers available in the park that you can access). My bag was also a waterproof one, which was a smart choice. My daughter was able to borrow a bike, so I think it's fine if you don't have one.
Since there were only two participants, we could enjoy our time and take photos freely. The guide spoke only in English, but it was very easy to understand, so it worked out. I think anyone who can ride a bike normally can participate; it felt amazing to cut through the wind and ride through Kualoa!
マウンテンバイクは一番小さいのに乗りました。

ただ、道がねかるんでいて、自転車のタイヤからの泥はねがすごかったです。この歳でどろんこになる貴重な体験でした。お天気があやしかったので着替えを持って行っていたのが正解でした(園内に出し入れ可能な有料ロッカーあります)。カバンもウォーターバックでしたので、それも正解。娘は貸してもらえてましたので、無くても大丈夫だと思います。

With more than ten people descending the mountain in a line, when a car comes along, we step aside to let it pass, and the drivers, even if we don't know them, are friendly, which lifts our spirits as well.
ワイキキを一望出来る撮影スポットは本当に最高でした。
下り坂専門なので、体力も殆ど使わないで済みます。
10人以上が一列になって山を下るので、途中で車が来ると避けて、先に車を行かせる際に、見ず知らずの車のドライバーにも愛想が良く、見ている此方まで気分が良くなります。

I participated with my 65-year-old mother!
We were in a team of eight, which included two groups of six people from Korea and the two of us.
At first, we watched a video in English on how to drive, but they also showed us a separate video with Japanese subtitles.
The guide spoke entirely in English, so we couldn't understand everything, but they explained the necessary safety information with gestures, and we had plenty of practice time, which made us feel secure before setting off.
I initially thought it might be a bit difficult for my mother due to her age, but there were some older participants in the other groups (not Japanese), and above all, we were able to experience something that is hard to come by in Japan, which made my mother the happiest.
The guide took a lot of photos for us, and the Korean group we participated with were very kind, creating truly wonderful memories.
65歳の母と参加しました!
一緒のチームになったのは韓国人グループ2組6人と、私たち母娘2人の計8人でした。
最初、運転方法を英語のビデオで見るのですが、私たちは別で日本語字幕付きのビデオを見せてくれました。
ガイドの方は全て英語で話すので、全てを理解することはできませんでしたが、安全に必要なことは身振り手振りで説明してくれましたし、練習時間もたっぷりとってくれたので安心して出発することができました。
最初は母の年齢には少し難しいかな?と思いましたが、他のグループにはもう少し年配の方(日本人ではなく)も参加していましたし、何より日本ではなかなか経験できないことができて、母が1番楽しんでいました^^
ガイドさんにたくさん写真も撮っていただき、一緒に参加した韓国人グループの方々にも優しくしていただき、本当に良い思い出になりました。

Riding through the great outdoors on a bicycle was a fresh and enjoyable experience! The mountain bike felt a bit wobbly on the bumpy roads, but once you get used to it, I think even beginners can feel at ease! Anyway, being able to see the beautiful nature and take plenty of photos made for a very satisfying tour!
大自然の中、自転車で駆け抜けたのは、新鮮で楽しい体験となりました!マウンテンバイクは、ガタガタの道は少し不安でしたが、慣れれば楽しめるので初心者でも安心だと思います!とにかく大自然が見れたのと、写真もたくさん撮ってもらえたので、大満足のツアーでした!

This was an amazing tour. As long as you know how to ride a bike, you're going to be good. Since this is an eBike, you're not going to feel tired at the end of the trip. You can adjust the setting on the bike to either put more effort to ride it or just let the bike do all the hard work. You'll be given a dry bag which you can attach to the bike. This can fit your wallet and a small water bottle. The ranch had amazing views and all the film sets are a must see. Compared to ATVs, this ride is silent and you won't be covered in dust and dirt. I will definitely this tour again!

I had an amazing time.
My first experience with an electric mountain bike was really scary, but once I got used to it, I was able to zoom through the stunning mountain and sea views at incredible speeds—it felt fantastic! I think it's more suited for younger people; it might be tough for those in their 50s. Also, with just basic conversational English skills, I often struggled to understand the explanations for setting up the electric bike. But basically, there are four modes, and it was a simple operation of just changing the mode for uphill and downhill.
It was a beginner course, but the foreign participants had long legs and were pedaling at quite a fast speed, so I was doing my best to keep up. The instructor, Fallen, was amazing—funny, cute, and kind, and I became a fan of hers. If I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to do this again. However, I think 20,000 yen without transportation is a bit high, so I hope they can work on that.
めちゃくちゃ楽しかった。
初の電動マウンテンバイクはめちゃくちゃ怖かったけど慣れたら圧巻の山海の間を爆速できて最高に気持ちいい!!年齢的に若い人向けだと思う。50代は厳しいかな…あと日常英会話程度の英語力だと電動自転車の設定の説明とか理解できない事が多かった。でも要は4モードあって、坂道や下り坂でモードを変えるだけのシンプルな操作だった。
初級コースだったけど外国人の人達足長いしスイスイかなり速いスピードでこいで遅れを取らない様にと必死だった。
インストラクターのfallen さんがAmazingな方で面白くてかわいくて優しくてファンになった。又ハワイ行ったら絶対やりたい。送迎なしで2万は高いのでそこどうにかして欲しいです。涙
