絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

The best!!! 最高!!!

Reviewed by: りえちゃん

I experienced skydiving for the first time in Hawaii.

Before jumping, I was really scared and wondered if I would be okay, but once I jumped, it was amazing!

The instructor made me laugh with a little bit of Japanese, which helped me relax.

It went by in a flash. I highly recommend it as it will be a fantastic memory!

初めてのハワイでスカイダイビングを体験しました。

飛ぶ前は、すっごく怖くて大丈夫かな??と思いましたが、飛んだら最高でした♪

インストラクターの方は、少しの日本語で笑わせてくれて、リラックスできました。

あっという間でした。最高の思い出になるのでおススメです!

Horseback riding in Hawaii! ハワイで乗馬!

If you get tired of the beach, I thought activities like this would be nice. However, since all conversations are in English, I think those who understand English will enjoy it more.

海にあきたらこんなアクティビティもいいなぁと思いました。ただし、会話は全て英語の為、英語が理解できる方が楽しめると思います。

Oahu North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience - Daytime Tours

Awesome ride!

Reviewed by: Amber

I was very impressed with how friendly the staff was and also the horses. Horses were very well behaved and such a joy to ride. I reccomend this ride to everyone that enjoys horses and loves the beach. Breathtaking views of the ocean and riding my horse in the sand was such a dream come true. Thankyou so much to the staff at Polo North Shore Beach.

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

SHARK!!!!!!

Reviewed by: George

Didn't know what to expect, but knew what we wanted to see......SHARKS!!!!

And we saw at least 15 swimming around us. For those who didn't get in the water (like my wife), the guys running the boat did what they could to get the sharks to the top so they could see them, too. Nice that they thought not to leave those folks out of the adventure.

But the big thrill is being in the cage with all of those sharks all around you. We got terrific pictures with just the sharks and with us in the foreground and them in the back.

Great trip. We recommend it. P.S. take the early trips as the afternoons can get rough on the ocean.

Sense of accomplishment☆ 達成感☆

Reviewed by: みい

It was so much fun, but the waiting times before and after were really long!!

They mentioned it was due to the airplane, but after a brief explanation, we waited about three hours before finally skydiving!

Even after it was over, we waited nearly two hours, which brought my mood down a bit.

Repeat visitors said they had never waited this long, but for those going during high season, I think it would be good to bring a book or something to pass the time.

Also, this only happened to me, but the instructor failed to land properly, and I injured my arm. It was a minor injury, but I think wearing long sleeves and long pants would be safer.

すっごく楽しかったけど、とにかく前後の待ち時間が長いです!!

飛行機の関係とか言ってましたけど、着いてから簡単な説明を聞いてから3時間くらい待たされやっとスカイダイビング!

終わったあとも2時間近く待たされちょっとテンション下がります。

リピーターの方はこんなに待たされたことはないとは言ってましたが、ハイシーズンに行く方はなにか本とか時間つぶせるものを持っていくといいかと思います。

あと、私の時だけでしたがインストラクターが着地に失敗して、私は腕を怪我しました。
軽傷でしたが、長袖・長ズボンの方が安心かと思います。

It was a good experience. 良い経験になりました

Reviewed by: ちー

I participated at my boyfriend's request. As someone with a fear of heights, I reluctantly agreed to join.

After participating, I honestly felt that it wasn't as scary as I expected. The diver who jumped with us mentioned that he jumps about ten times a day, which made me think that the chances of dying from this are almost none.

According to my boyfriend, the actual time spent in freefall is about five minutes. The freefall lasts for about one to two minutes before the parachute opens, and then you glide for about three minutes. During the freefall, I was so focused on breathing and looking at the camera (since I had ordered photos and a DVD) that I was a bit frantic. Once the parachute opened, the view was incredibly beautiful, and I was moved by it. It felt like I was watching a scene from a TV show. After landing, I was really tired (laughs), but my boyfriend said it was so much fun that he wanted to jump again.

Considering the prices for photos and DVDs in Japan and other countries, I think it’s worth ordering them since they are quite cheap. We’ve been enjoying watching them together since returning home. Also, it gets quite cold up there, so I recommend wearing long sleeves.

 彼氏の希望で参加しました。高所恐怖症の私はしぶしぶオッケー・・・という気分での参加でした。
 参加してからの感想としては、正直、思ったよりは怖くないなぁといったところでしょうか。一緒に飛んでくれるダイバーさんは一日に10回程飛ぶと話していたのでこれで死ぬことはまずないだな、と思いました。
 彼氏の話によると、実際飛んでいる時間は5分程度。フリーフォールは落ちて1,2分間でパラシュートが開いてからは3分程です。私はフリーフォールの時は息をするのと、(写真・DVDを頼んでいたので)カメラを見るので必死でした。パラシュートが開いてからは景色がすごくきれいで感動しました。テレビでの映像を見ているみたいでした。降りた後はすごく疲れていました(笑)彼氏は楽しすぎてもう一回飛びたいと言っていました。
 
 日本や他の国ですることを思うと写真やDVDを頼んでも安いので頼んでおいても良いかと思います。帰国してからみんなで見て楽しんでいます。あと、上空はかなり寒いので、長袖で行くことをお勧めします。

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

2nd Time Around

Reviewed by: Wanda K

This is the second year in a row that we attended the Polynesian Cultural Center and the Alii Luau. The show is great and the food is probably the best we have had at a Luau. This is probably because the focus is on doing everything possible so that the guest is entertained with a wonderful show and feed all the delicious food you want to eat instead of trying to get you to spend your money on alcohol and then getting you to act foolish like they do at many of the other luaus on Oahu.

Items that need improvement.

Reviewed by: Pat

Overall, the show and activities were really good. However, we feel that there could have been some improvements in other areas.

First, the people who paid extra to sit next to the stage had to climb a great many steps which had no hand rails, to reach the food, drinks and to use the restrooms. There should be an area for the food and drinks to be closer for those people seated near the stage who paid more money for their tickets.

Secondly, after the first time that the our server came to help me with our order, she returned to see if we needed more food, but did not return after that to see if we wanted any dessert or coffee. The dessert and coffee were on another section of the upper level.

Third, since I was in a wheelchair, when the show started, I was wheeled in through the back of the stage to my seat. My wife was told that she could not come with me or exit the way I came in, causing a big problem at the end of the show. She was told to go to the customer relations des

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

family experience

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We made this a family affair. My two kids, 16 & 6 enjoyed the sharks. The water was rough and it was very hard to hold onto the cage. I had to hold my 6yr old, he was not strong enough to hold on himself and the waves knocked him around. That said he loved it. My 16 yr old had no problems and tooks some great pics with the underwater camera. The sharks came right up to the cage and they looked them eye to eye. I tend to get sea sick so I wore a sea sick patch, which unfortuntly was not enough. The worst part was sitting in the boat while the other group was in the cage. Everyone agreed that they would do it again, but compared to some of the other tours we did, this one seemed a little pricy. We were only out for about 1.5 hours with about 15 - 20 minutes in the cage, which was just right but per minute - expensive!

Great Adventure!

Reviewed by: Rwillwin

The sea was angry that day, but the crazy eight crew pulled through! I have always wanted to swim with sharks and am so glad we were able to fit this in during wedding week. Despite the windy rough weather, the crew felt comfortable going forward with the adventure after deeming the conditions safe enough. They were very professional and provided great customer service and were very open in providing information. The water and cage were the most comfortable place to be on our adventure and the sharks provided a great show. The view was spectacular and we all survived. I would definitely do this again and recommend this to anyone considering this activity. Thank you Hawaiiactivities and Jessica for helping us decide on this adventure. Great job by all!

My husband and I had a great time on our ride at Gunstock Ranch. Ross, our trail guide, was the best. I haven't been on a horse in years and it was my husband's first time riding.

There were some accidents, but アクシデントもありましたが

Reviewed by: 雷太

I experienced horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch twice before, but this time I wanted to see a different view, so I tried the sunset horseback riding at this ranch. It was a small, privately-owned place, which made it easy to talk to the staff. The female guide spoke only English, but she was very kind, and the horses were well-trained, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. There were also privately owned horses at the ranch, and one of the horses we encountered while riding was quite mischievous and fell right in front of us, leaving us in shock. Our guide, who also had a nursing qualification, provided emergency assistance and called an ambulance, while we waited anxiously. I realized that dealing with wild animals comes with such risks.

According to our guide, if the horse's personality doesn't match the rider's skill level, accidents can happen more easily. However, the horses at this ranch were well-behaved and properly trained, so we were able to enjoy the ride without worry until the end. We took in the magnificent scenery and sunset, treating the incident as a lesson, and it turned out to be a fun hour and a half of horseback riding.

乗馬はクアロア牧場で2度程体験しましたが、別の景色を見たいと今回こちらの牧場のサンセット乗馬を体験しました。
個人経営でこじんまりしていたので、話やすかったです。ガイドしてくれた女性は英語しかできませんが、とても優しく、馬もよく慣れていて安心して楽しめました。そこの牧場には個人所有の馬もおり、私たちが乗馬中に出会った馬がやんちゃで、目の前で落馬してしまい、唖然としました。私たちのガイドさんは看護師の資格ももっているとのことで、緊急対応し、救急車を呼んだのですが、その間私たちは緊張の面持ちで待機していました。自然の動物を相手にするのはこういったリスクも伴うものだというのを痛感しました。
ガイドさん曰く、馬の性格と乗り手の技量があっていないと、事故も起きやすいとのこと。しかしここの牧場の馬は、性格もよく、きちんと調教されているとのことで、最後まで安心して楽しめました。雄大な景色とサンセットを見て、アクシデントのことは教訓とし、楽しい1時間半の乗馬でした。

Blissful time 至福の時間

Reviewed by: sugarman

On the left side, just past the Polynesian Cultural Center, there is a sprawling ranch. It feels more like Arizona than Hawaii, with mostly white people around. There happened to be families with small children gathered there since school was out, but most were just doing short horseback riding experiences. We set off under the guidance of Amanda, who moved here from New York about a year and a half ago. The exhilaration of galloping through the hills and forests is something hard to experience in Japan. I quit the Crane Riding Club out of frustration and have been riding at the Aso Dream Land Club for about three years, but that place has a lot of hills. Here, the flat terrain makes for the best galloping. Our 30-minute private lunch included a gigantic sandwich, juice, water, a mountain of fruit, and a box of macadamia chocolates, which was way too much to finish. I took the chocolates as a souvenir. I was a bit worried about not speaking English. If you're a beginner, they won't let you ride on a course that includes galloping. It's self-reported, but you'll need to sign a waiver, so you're responsible in case of an accident.

ポリネシアンカルチャーセンターを過ぎてまもなくの左側に牧場の敷地が広がっている。白人ばかりで、ハワイというよりアリゾナあたりの感じ。たまたま学校が休みで小さな子供連れの家族が群れていたが、ほとんどは短い体験乗馬。NYから1.5年前にやってきたAmandaの案内でいざ出発。丘陵を林を思いっきり駆け抜ける爽快さは日本では味わいにくい。クレイン乗馬クラブを欲求不満でやめ、阿蘇夢大地のクラブで3年ほど乗っているが、あそこは坂が多い。当地は敷地が平坦ゆえ駈足が最高。30分の僕らだけのランチには、特大のサンドイッチ、ジュース、水、山盛りフルーツ、マカデミアチョコ1箱がついていて、到底食べきれない。チョコはおみやげにもらいました。英語ができないとちょっと心配。乗馬未経験者なら駈足なしのコースじゃないと受けてくれません。自己申告だけど免責書類にサインしますから、事故があっても自己責任ね。

絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

Definitely worth a visit! 一度は是非!!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I've always wanted to experience this at least once! Even though I'm over 50 years old... This time, the opportunity came, and I took on the challenge. I'm truly overwhelmed with emotion!

Here's my experience. First, when I arrived at the center, I had to sign multiple "waivers." The content stated, "There will be no compensation for any accidents." In short, it's all on you, no matter what happens. It took some courage to sign this.

Finally, it was my turn to board the Cessna. The experienced instructor helped ease my nerves. The Cessna took off and climbed higher and higher. We were truly above the clouds.

Once we reached the altitude for the drop, the atmosphere in the cabin became tense. I tightened my harness and waited for "that moment." The cabin door opened, and it was finally time to drop!!!

When it was my turn, looking down, I saw the clouds below... Here we go! Falling!!! It's an experience that words can't express. Without a doubt, I was flying through the air.

As the large parachute opened, the speed dropped suddenly, allowing me to take in the view below. The endless blue sea spread out beneath me. It was also breathtaking!

When I safely returned, I felt a great sense of accomplishment. For those who are hesitant, I highly recommend it!

Lastly, I recommend getting the photos and DVD. They are a bit pricey, but they are definitely worth it. When you sign up at the center, each person gets their own dedicated cameraman.

That's my experience!

前から、一度は!経験したいと思っていました。年も50才を過ぎているのですが。。。
そのチャンスが今回来て、初挑戦しました。もう感激の一言です!

私の体験記です。
?まず、センターに着くと、「誓約書」に何枚もサインします。「いかなる事故も一切損害賠償はありません。」と言った内容です。 要は何があっても自己責任です。これにサインするのも根性が必要でした。

?いよいよ順番が回って来てセスナに乗り込みます。でも慣れているインストラクターが緊張を解してくれました。セスナは離陸し、どんどん高度を上げます。本当に雲の上でした。

?落下する高度に達すると機内が一気に緊張感に包まれます。命綱をしっかり締めて ”その時”を待ちます。
機内のスライドが明きいよいよ落下です!!!

?ついに私の番になり、下を見ると雲の上です。。いざ!
 落下!!!
 もう言葉に表せない経験です。間違いなく生身で空を飛んでいます。

?途中、大きなパラシュートが開くと、一気にスピードが落ちる代わりに、眼下の景色を見る余裕が生まれます。
果てしなく青い海が眼下に広がります。これも感動!です。

無事に生還!?した時には大きな達成感もあります。
迷っている方!是非ともお薦めですよ。

最後に、写真とDVDはお薦めです。少し金額は高いのですがその価値は十分あります。センターで申し込むと一人一人に専用のカメラマンが付いてくれます。

以上が私の体験記です。

Considering this is my 2nd submission I will repeat it because it was so fun! I talked my brother into doing this activity with me so when he agreed I was excited. First of all the capt and crew were super cool!! I am a straight out Claustrophobe and was nervous about the snorkel and mask having never used them but after I gained my bearings it was awesome to see we were surrounded by one of earth's most feared predators. There really was nothing to fear but I had been secretly hoping for a Great White drive by but accepted the sharks we were surrounded by. It was phenomonal to be in their domain as spectators. Overall it was a very cool activity that I would definitely recommend to all, minus the fact that after being the first cage down the remaining time was left with me hanging my head over the railing and counting the minutes until our return to shore. What good is dramamine I ask?
Thanks again for the ride.

I recommend experiencing it at least once in a lifetime. 一生に一度は体験することをお勧め

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I had the opportunity to experience skydiving with my wife during our trip to Hawaii, which is something we wouldn't normally do. After about an hour's bus ride from our hotel in Waikiki, we arrived at the center next to the airport.

We were shown a video with poorly spoken Japanese and had to sign a waiver. The waiver was even harder to understand than the video. I understand it was a direct translation, but it was stressful to read and made me a bit anxious.

There was a weight requirement, and since I had been indulging a lot in the past few days, I went to the reception to get weighed. However, none of the staff spoke Japanese. I was surprised that they couldn't understand me, so I had to explain in broken English and was taken to the scale. The scale displayed pounds, which I had never seen before. I was then charged an additional $20 to accommodate my weight, which made me resolve to lose some weight.

After waiting for an hour, I was finally called, fitted with the gear, and received a brief training before boarding the plane. The foreign instructor looked intimidating but kept repeating "exciting" in Japanese, which helped ease the tension.

Before I knew it, we reached an altitude of 14,000 feet. Everyone jumped out one after another, and before I could gather my courage, I was in the air! The wind was intense, but it felt like I was floating rather than falling. Since the ground wasn't getting closer, I couldn't really tell what was happening.

We fell for quite a while before the parachute opened. It felt like it happened so quickly that I finally had time to look around and take in the view. The gear was a bit uncomfortable, but I felt exhilarated. I appreciated the instructor's enthusiasm as he swung us around until we landed.

It was quite a hot day, but it gets pretty cold during the dive, so I recommend wearing long sleeves. It was even chilly during the fall. Finally, I dropped a $20 tip into the box before heading back to Honolulu.

In the end, I spent a decent amount of money, but I think it was much cheaper than doing it in Japan. If you're going to Hawaii, I definitely recommend giving it a try!

スカイダイビングを体験するというか、しようと思う機会はなかなかないので、ハワイ旅行をきっかけに妻と二人で体験してみました。
ワイキキのホテルよりバスで約1時間で、空港隣のセンターに到着。
お世辞にも上手いとは言えない日本語もどきのビデオを見せられ、誓約書にサイン。誓約書はビデオ以上に解読不能。直訳なので仕方ないとは思いますが、読みながらストレスがたまり、ちょっと不安に。
体重の記載があったが、ここ数日の暴飲暴食が気になっていたので、計測しようと受付に行き、日本語で話しかける。
スタッフは誰一人、日本語話せない。えっ?日本語通じないのか?仕方ないので片言の英語で説明し、体重計に連れて行かれる。体重計はポンド表示らしく、見たことない値に。
さらにふくよかな体重を支えるために20$の追加料金を請求される。このとき減量を決意。

そこから待つこと1時間。やっとこ呼ばれて器具を付けられ2~3の講習を受けたのちに飛行機に搭乗。外人インストラクターは見かけは怖いが「ドキドキ」と唯一知っている日本語を連呼して和ませてくれる。
あっと言う間に高度14,000フィートに到着。
あれよあれよと皆が飛び立っていく。覚悟を決めるまもなく私も空中に!
風はとにかくすごいが、落ちているの?という感じ。とにかく地上が近づいてこないため、自分がどうなっているのか良く分らない。
結構長い時間落下し、パラシュートが開く。
飛び立ってからあっという間だったためか、やっと落ち着いて周りを見れるように。
器具が股に挟まってやや痛いが気分は爽快。地上に降り立つまでスイングしてくれたりとサービス精神旺盛のインストラクターに感謝です。

この日は結構暑い日だったんですが、ダイビング中は結構冷えるため、長袖がお勧め。特に落下中は寒いくらいでした。
最後にチップ箱に$20を投函してホノルルへ。

何だかんだでそこそこお金は払いましたが、日本でやるよりはだいぶ安いと思います。ハワイ行くなら是非挑戦を!

I experienced a view and excitement like I had never seen before all at once☆ It really gets your adrenaline pumping!

If you are prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must. (It shakes a lot during the parachute descent.)

Side Note: During the Circle Island Tour, I recommend everyone try Dole Whip Ice Cream at the Dole Plantation stop. It is truly some of the best ice cream I've ever had.

The second leg of our tour included an activity-filled rollick through the Polynesian Culture Center! The Center is so clean, everyone is so accommodating and nice, and the activities were very enjoyable! I loved watching the coconut slicing and juicing presentation! It was so informative...and very funny, I might add! Every student and staff member working there is a physica

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

Should have rented a car instead

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Not much of a tour. Driver OK - very little information given during ride, made a few recommendations. Driver dropped everyone off then went surfing for both the morning and afternoon sessions.
Other folks in group disappointed in the amount of walking, lack of bike helmets and places where the road had no bike trail.

We had an amazing time!!!! The crew were friendly and fun, saw so many sharks!!! Would recommend to anyone.
The only downfall was we paid $60 for a DVD of us swimming with the sharks, however when we went to watch it, it did not work!! : ( We tried to contact the crew but have had no reply.

絶景スカイダイビング 一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動!ビデオ&写真撮影付きプランあり by ゴージャンプハワイ<送迎付き>

Once in a lifetime!! 一生に一度は!!

Reviewed by: 20年振りのハワイ

It truly became the best memory!

I thought I should try skydiving at least once in my life, and it really turned out to be an unforgettable experience. As many experienced jumpers say, I never felt that floating sensation like on a roller coaster; until the parachute opened, I was just lying flat in strong winds (but the view was absolutely amazing, unlike anything in my daily life!). Once the parachute opened, even though I was at a considerable altitude, I felt no resistance at all—it was truly a walk in the sky!

This first dive was so wonderful that it made me want to go skydiving again somewhere.

By the way, since I signed up with three friends, we went without a shuttle and drove there with a rental car. Rental cars in Hawaii are very affordable, so if you're comfortable with left-hand driving, it might be better to go on your own to save time.

本当に最高の思い出となりました!

人生一度は、、と思い今回念願のスカイダイビングとなりましたが本当に忘れられない思い出となりました。
経験者はみなさんおっしゃってますが、所謂ジェットコースターのようなふわっと感は一度も感じることなく、パラシュートが開くまではただ強風の上で大の字になっているだけ(でも景色は自分の日常生活から考えられない素晴らしさ!)、パラシュートが開いてからはかなりの高度があるものの何の抵抗も感じることが無く、まさに空中散歩!

絶対にまたスカイダイビングをどこかでやろうと思わせてくれた素敵な1st diveとなりました。

ちなみに友人3名との申込みだった為送迎無しで申込み、レンタカーで行きました。
ハワイはレンタカーが非常に安いので左ハンドル問題無い方はご自身で行かれた方が時間の無駄はないかもしれません。
