During free fall, it felt more like flying than falling, and it was amazing. With a photographer, you can get beautiful shots during free fall, but they can't take photos while the parachute is deployed. With an instructor, they can take photos until the very end, so I felt there are pros and cons to both options.
フリーフォール中は落ちているというより、飛んでいる感覚で、最高でした。カメラマン付きだとフリーフォール中は綺麗に撮ってもらえますが、パラシュートの間は撮れないです。インストラクターだと最後まで撮ってもらえるので一長一短と感じました。

Jumping from a Cessna at an altitude higher than the clouds!
I thought it would be a straight free fall, but I was instructed to hold hands with the instructor and descend while spinning, and even got to steer after the parachute opened... I came down sideways and while rotating. It was quite thrilling.
My wife, perhaps a bit nervous, enjoyed the descent while listening to the explanations of the scenery and taking in the breathtaking views. She mentioned it was even more fun than she expected.
I will definitely repeat this experience on my next visit.
P.S. The ground guide, Masa, is also fun and kind. I hope to see him again.
上空の雲より高いところまでセスナで上がってジャンプ!
まっすぐの自由落下かと思いきや、
インストラクターさんに手を組まされて回転しながらの降下や、パラシュートが開いてからの操縦までさせてもらい…横向きになったり回転しながら降下してきました。
なかなかのスリルでした。
…妻は多少ビビりながらだったためか、景色の説明を聞きながら、絶景を楽しみながら降下したらしいのですが。
思っていた以上に楽しかった、と話していました。
次回も訪れたら必ずリピートします。
追伸、地上の案内人・マサさんも楽しく優しいです。また会いたいです。

Despite the voucher confirming a pickup at 7:25 AM in front of the hotel, I received a phone call in English just before leaving my room on the morning of the event, stating, "The pickup has been canceled, so you need to get a taxi on your own and come to the meeting point." I also had to cover the taxi fare. The sudden change communicated in English caused me to panic, and with an unstable Wi-Fi connection and no Uber account, I struggled to communicate the meeting location clearly to the taxi driver I managed to flag down in front of the hotel. I got lost in the harbor as well, and the taxi fare ended up being over $20. I felt deceived. The catch was decent, but the fishing gear was quite old and in poor condition, though I was glad to catch something. If it weren't for the last-minute change in transportation, I would have been nearly completely satisfied. I was really disappointed by the abrupt change. I recommend being prepared for self-arrival in case of transportation changes (confirming the meeting location clearly, having taxi fare, and having the Uber app ready) instead of relying solely on the provided transportation.
予約確定後のバウチャーに「滞在ホテル前で7時25分にピックアップ」と記載されていたにも関わらず、当日の朝、部屋を出る直前に、ホテルの部屋電話に、「ピックアップは無くなったから、自力でタクシーを拾って、集合場所まで来て」という英語での電話を受けた。タクシー代もこちらもち。いきなりの英語での電話による変更で、パニクる上、wifi状態も不安定で、Uberも未登録だったため、ホテル前で待機のタクシーを拾って、その運転手に、集合場所を明確に知らせるのに、とても苦労した。ハーバー内でも、迷って、タクシー代金も20ドル以上した。騙された気分。釣果はまあまあ。釣具はかなりの年季物で傷みがひどいが、釣れたから良し。送迎間際の送迎変更さえなければ、ほぼ大満足。出鼻を挫かれ、ホントにガッカリ。送迎があると安心せず、自力で集合する場合の備え(明確な集合位置確認、タクシー代、Uberアプリ等)をお薦めする。

The trip to Diamond Head in the morning and Manoa Falls in the afternoon left plenty of time to do a round-trip and have time for a snack or rest. Bring water and your camera.
They plan on widening the path to Manoa Falls making it two-way. Can be very slippery and muddy, especially when it rains, which is most of the time. You'll see bare feet, flip-flops, nice sneakers, etc. Good walking shoes recommended. Enjoy the beautiful paintings of the Kings and Queens of Hawaii in the Manoa Falls visitors center.

The garlic shrimp at Cameron's, recommended by our guide in Haleiwa, was delicious. It was a shame that our stay in Haleiwa was only about an hour due to horseback riding being scheduled afterward, leaving us no time to explore. It seems our time in Haleiwa was shortened because of expected traffic on that weekend.
The horseback riding at Turtle Bay by the sea was very nice. The horse I rode was a bit of a glutton and kept trying to eat grass during the ride, so I had to scold him multiple times to get back on course, which left my arms sore. It turned into a fun memory! Next time, I think I’ll want to explore Haleiwa more leisurely, so I might plan horseback riding for another day.
ハレイワではガイドさんのおススメキャメロンのガーリックシュリンプ美味しかったです。
乗馬がその後の予定だったのでハレイワでの滞在が1時間程で散策する時間が無かったのが残念です。その日は週末のせいか渋滞が予想されたのでハレイワ滞在時間が短縮された様です。
乗馬はタートルベイの海辺でとても良かったです。私が乗った馬は食いしん坊で乗馬中に何度も草を食べに行ってしまい何度も馬を叱ってコースに戻るようにしたので腕が筋肉痛になりまた。笑笑〜楽しい思い出になりました。

There is a zipline base about a 20-minute drive from the reception area, and the views of the mountains and ocean during the journey were already magnificent and amazing. After watching a Japanese explanation video and receiving instructions in English from the staff, we put on our gear and started. The staff were very friendly and accustomed to Japanese tourists, and they occasionally made us laugh with their broken Japanese. Each of the seven ziplines has its own unique length and slope; one even has you sliding backward, and another features a game where you put nuts into a bucket, making it all the more enjoyable. As we got used to it, we were able to let go of our hands while sliding, which felt like flying through the sky and was very pleasant.
受付場所から車で20分ほどのところにジップラインの拠点があり、移動中に見える山々や海の景色がすでに雄大で最高でした。日本語の説明ビデオをみて、スタッフさんから英語で説明を受け装備をつけてスタートします。スタッフさんたちも日本人観光客に慣れていてとても気さくで時々片言の日本語で笑わせてくれました。7本のジップラインそれぞれに長さや傾斜に特徴があり、1本は後ろ向きに滑走したり、1本はナッツをバケツに入れるゲームをしたりと楽しめるように工夫してくれていました。慣れてくると手を離して滑走できるようになり、空を飛んでいるようで気持ちよかったです。

Our guide Keola was the best. He provided us with valuable information about the eco system, history about the North Shore and Hawai’i and safety information during the hike.
The area is absolutely stunning. If you want to do something away from the commercial and touristy stuff in Waikiki this is a great way to see Hawai’i in all its beauty.
I would ensure you wear good hiking shoes or trail running shoes. Also this hike is not a leisure walk. You will earn your lunch.

It was fun. There were four adults, and it was everyone's first time participating. The pickup time at the hotel was just right (around 9 AM), but when you include the transportation fee from the Waikiki area, it feels a bit pricey. I think six activities, including both long and short ones, is just the right amount. Don't expect much from the scenery. Just keep in mind that after going down, you have to climb back up over 75 steps! There was also someone in their 80s in the same group, so it's an activity that people of all ages can enjoy.
楽しかったです。成人4名、皆初めての参加でした。ホテルでのピックアップ時間もちょうどよかったですが、(9時前後)ワイキキエリアからの送迎代金を含めると割高感があります。長短含め6本、ちょうどよい量だと思います。景色は期待はしないでください。ただ下がったあと、75段あまりの階段を上がって戻ります!

This tour is highly recommended! You can taste Hawaii's specialties, enjoy nature, and watch turtles. Even my father, who is over 60, was able to enjoy it without any difficulty. If you come to Hawaii, I definitely want everyone to experience this!
First, at the Dole Plantation, you can enjoy freshly squeezed pineapple juice for just $2.50! It's a great deal, and you can savor the true flavor of pineapple without any additives, so I absolutely recommend it!
Next, the horseback riding takes you through a forest with ups and downs, making the one-hour ride completely engaging! The horses are all thoroughbreds and very stable, so it's reassuring, and it's kind of cute when they occasionally get bored and start munching on grass (*^-^*). The staff were also very cute and kind!
After that, our guide took us to a hidden gem for garlic shrimp that locals use, and we enjoyed incredibly plump and delicious shrimp! Apparently, the garlic shrimp from the North Shore is made from fresh shrimp, making it even tastier♪
Above all, the highlight of this tour is the guide!
The amount of knowledge is amazing!! And they are entertaining! They share all sorts of interesting stories about Hawaii's history, recent events, and trendy shops, so you won't get bored during the travel time! Also, if you ask, "Are there places like this nearby?" they will guide you by car if it's close, which was very helpful☆
The guide and this route were both fantastic, so I definitely want to participate again when I go to Hawaii! (*^▽^*)

I was planning to take a bus near H&M and was waiting for its arrival. It didn't come for 5 minutes, but it eventually arrived, and I boarded. After about 30 to 40 minutes of bouncing on the bus, we arrived at the airport. Inside the bus, we watched an instructional video and filled out a contract. I was a bit surprised by the contents of the contract.
Upon arriving at the airport, a woman asked if we wanted to take photos or videos. After that, we checked our luggage and followed the instructions from the staff. After receiving the explanation, we waited about 5 minutes for the Cessna to arrive. I was impressed by the speedy response here as well.
The Cessna arrived, and we boarded directly. We flew for about 10 minutes, reaching an altitude of around 4,200 meters, and then we jumped out one after another. I was surprised at how quick it felt.
The moment of jumping was very scary, but once in the air, the strong wind made it feel less terrifying, almost like being on a roller coaster, and I was desperately falling. The change in air pressure caused pain in my ears and made it hard to breathe. As the parachute opened and we descended to the ground, it spun around a bit, giving a floating sensation similar to being on a roller coaster, which was fun.
It seems there are individual differences, as some people may feel nauseous. Even though I'm not a fan of roller coasters, I found skydiving enjoyable, so I definitely recommend giving it a try!

I signed up for the 9 o'clock session, but the meeting time was at 4:30. From there, we visited several hotels for pickups and then headed to the airport with about an hour's drive. Eating and drinking were prohibited in the car, so I woke up early and had a light breakfast before heading out. We watched a 10-minute video about safety precautions in the car and filled out liability forms, then I dozed off. In America, the legal system is quite detailed, and the forms had a lot of information.
Once we arrived at the airport, the staff checked our documents and collected our passports (copies are acceptable). The elderly staff member's explanations were a bit unclear; for instance, they didn’t mention that there were coin lockers available, and they told us not to use the lockers because they would watch our bags, but they didn’t really keep an eye on them... so I think it’s better to act with personal responsibility. The lockers can be used with four 25-cent coins. If you want to take photos with your iPhone or similar, it’s better not to put it in the locker; I left mine on the table in the waiting area during the skydiving.
About eight groups board the plane at a time, so there is a wait. There was a food truck, so we could have light snacks and drinks while waiting. When it was my turn, I got fitted with a harness and practiced how to jump with my assigned instructor. All the instructors were very energetic and friendly! They gave instructions in simple Japanese, but the basic conversation was in English.
And then, finally, it was time for takeoff! We ascended to an altitude of 4,200 meters over about 10 minutes. The ocean was incredibly beautiful, and I could see Waikiki and Diamond Head! From there, it was over in a flash! Without hesitation, we jumped (or fell?) one by one! The sensation of freefall was unlike anything I had ever experienced. It didn’t feel like floating; it felt like I was cutting through the cold wind. Strangely, there was no sense of fear! In fact, I felt more scared after the parachute opened... After about five minutes in the air, we landed successfully, just as we practiced!
I received a certificate, and that was it. The instructor handed me a bag for tips, so I put in $20 and dropped it in the box. I waited for about an hour until the pickup car arrived, and we returned to Waikiki just after 11. Since there is some waiting time, I think it’s a good idea to bring light snacks like cookies. It was a sensation I had never experienced before, and it was so much fun! I think everyone should try it at least once in their lifetime!
9時からの回に申し込みましたが集合時間は4:30でした。
そこからいくつかホテルを周りピックアップをしてから1時間ほどのドライブで飛行場まで向かいます。
車内は飲食禁止なので早起きして軽く朝食を食べてから向かいました。車内で注意事項等のビデオを10分ほど見て、免責等の書類を記入してあとはウトウトしていました。アメリカは訴訟社会、かなり細かく記載がありました。
飛行場に着いてからスタッフの方に書類のチェックとパスポート(コピー可)の提出を行います。高齢のスタッフの方でしたが説明がわかりずらく、コインロッカーがあるのに説明がなかったり、自分が荷物を見ててやるからロッカーは使うな(でもほったらかしで見てなかった・・・)と言ってみたりだったので自己責任のもと行動した方がいいと思います。
ロッカーは25セントコイン4枚で使用できます。自分のiPhoneなどで写真を取りたい方はロッカーには入れずスカイダイビング中は待合所のテーブルの上に置いていっていました。
飛行機には8組くらいづつ乗り込むので順番待ちをします。フードトラックがきているので軽食を食べたり飲み物を飲むこともできました。
順番が来たらハーネスをつけてもらい、自分の担当のインストラクターの方と飛び方の練習をします。どのインストラクターの方もテンションが高めで感じのよい方達です!指示は簡単な日本語でしてくれますが、基本会話は英語になります。
そしていよいよテイクオフ!10分ほどかけて高度4200メートルまで上がります。海がとっても綺麗でワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドまで見渡せます!そこからはあっという間!ためらう間も無く順番に飛んで(落ちて?)行きます!フリーフォール中の感覚は今までにない感覚。ふわっと感はなくって冷たい風の中をくぐり抜けている感じ。恐怖感は不思議とない!それよりもパラシュートが開いてからの方が怖かった・・・5分ほど空中を飛んでから着陸。練習通りにできました!
証明書をいただいておしまいです。インストラクターの方にチップを入れる袋を渡されるので20ドル〜を入れて箱に入れておきます。
迎えの車が来るまで小一時間待ち、11時過ぎにはワイキキに戻りました。
待っている時間がちょこちょこあるのでクッキーみたいな軽食を持っていくといいと思います。
今までに味わったことのない感覚でとても楽しかったです!一生に一度は体験してみるといいと思います!

I took an Uber to get there.
From the road, I could see a green-roofed waiting area with several chairs and a table that had a simple guide in Japanese on how to ride.
There were only me and my daughter, a white man, and a cute girl who guided us, making a total of three people.
We enjoyed a leisurely horseback ride through the fields and North Shore.
Sometimes the horse would stop to eat grass or urinate, which was also fun.
We thoroughly enjoyed 90 minutes on the North Shore.
If you're expecting a fast-paced ride, it might feel a bit lacking, but if you want to relax and enjoy, it's perfect.
Since there were no other Japanese people in the later group, it felt very Hawaiian.
I was a bit anxious because the Uber driver who brought us said it would be difficult to get an Uber back, but I was able to ride after waiting for 20 minutes.
I think it's a bit far from Waikiki, but I highly recommend this horseback riding experience.
ウーバーに乗って行きました
道路から見える緑色の屋根が待合室で椅子が何客かありテーブルに日本語で書かれた簡単な乗り方の説明書が置いてありました
日本人は私と娘だけで白人の男性一人で計三人で可愛い女の子がガイドしてくれました
野原、ノースショアをとことこ乗馬して
たまに馬が草を食べて動かなくなったりオシッコしたりで脱線しますがそれも楽しかったです
90分たっぷりノースショアを堪能しました
走る乗馬を期待している方は物足りないかもしれませんがのんびり楽しみたいなら最高です
後発のグループも日本人がいなかったのでハワイ感がありました
帰りのウーバーを期待するのむずかしいと
乗せて来てくれたウーバーの運転主が言っていたので不安でしたが20分待ってのることが出来ました
ワイキキからはちょっと遠いとは思いますが
とってもお勧めの乗馬です

I like roller coasters and have experienced bungee jumping, so I thought I had a good tolerance for thrills, floating sensations, and heights. However, skydiving felt more like a constant state of motion sickness. As soon as I jumped, I was hit by an intense wind that made it hard to breathe, and my contact lenses flew away. Once the parachute opened, it felt like being spun around in a coffee cup at an amusement park, and I just wanted to come down quickly.
Additionally, the tour bus to the airport was shared with others. The bus had a capacity of about 20 people, and several buses arrived at the same time. This meant that with the foreigners included, there were about 60 to 80 people receiving explanations, but the plane that actually took off had only 8 seats, resulting in a significant wait time.
I’m not sure if the order for boarding the plane was random, but we left the hotel at 5:00 AM and arrived at the site by 6:30 AM, yet we didn’t get to skydive until 9:00 AM. We left the airport at 11:00 AM and got back to the hotel just after 12:00 PM.
Since some people can feel nauseous during skydiving, we weren’t allowed to eat anything in the morning until after the jump. Even after we finished, there was nothing nearby in the isolated airport area, just one truck with a food stall. It was so crowded that I couldn’t even buy a drink, so I recommend bringing your own water.
I personally don’t want to skydive again, but my husband, who doesn’t get motion sickness, said he had fun and would like to do it again, so it might depend on the person.
For those who want to create lasting memories, I highly recommend adding the photo option, even though it’s a bit pricey.
ジェットコースターは好きだし、バンジージャンプも経験したことがあるのでスリルや浮遊感、高所に対しての免疫は十分ある方でしたが、スカイダイビングはどちらかというと終始船酔いのような感覚でした。飛び降りると同時にものすごい強風に晒されるので息が上手くできなかったことや、装着していたコンタクトレンズはどこかへ飛んで行ってしまいました。パラシュートが開いてからは遊園地のコーヒーカップ?をぐるぐる回されているような感覚で早く降ろしてほしい気持ちでいっぱいでした。
また、移動のツアーバスは乗り合いで飛行場に向かいました。バスは20人ほどのキャパで何台かが同時に現地到着。つまり外国の方も合わせると60〜80人ほど説明を受けていますが実際上に上がる飛行機は8人乗りのため待ち時間がかなり発生しました。
飛行機に乗せてもらえる順番はランダムなのか、5時にホテルを出発し現地には6時半には着きましたがスカイダイビングできたのが9時です。帰宅できたのは11時に飛行場を出発して12時すぎのホテル着でした。
スカイダイビングは気分が悪くなる人もいるので吐いてしまうといけないからと朝は飛び終わるまで何も食べれません。飛び終わってからも隔離された飛行場内では近くに何もなくトラックが一台で屋台を出しているだけでした。
混雑して飲み物さえ買えないので事前にお水などは持っていくことをお勧めします。
私は二度とスカイダイビングをしたいとは思いませんが、主人は気分が悪くならないタイプだったので、楽しかった!またしたい!と言っていましたので、人によるのかもしれませんが…
むた思い出に残したい方は少し高い金額ですが絶対に写真撮影はオプションでつけることをお勧めします。

Skydiving was the best memory. I had a separate photographer with me, and looking back, the photos turned out to be fantastical and beyond my imagination. I definitely recommend it!
スカイダイビングをして、最高の記念になりました
カメラマンを別につけて飛んだのですが、後から見ると幻想的な想像以上の写真が撮れていました
絶対にオススメします

This was my second jump, but it was my friend's first experience. They were nervous the whole time, and their face was tense, but after actually jumping, they were all smiles and said, "I'm glad I did it! I think I'm hooked!!"
I regret not being able to see the person in the wingsuit jump from the same plane, as I missed that part due to the order of jumps.
Regarding photos and videos, it's definitely better to have a photographer jump with you! I chose a GoPro, but since the instructor's hands are unavailable during the parachute stage, I only got footage up until that point. I felt disappointed thinking that if there had been an explanation beforehand, I would have definitely opted for a photographer. Also, the explanation was given by an elderly Japanese man, so there were no issues with Japanese language support. However, I was repeatedly told that if I had chosen a plan to jump from a lower altitude, it would be better not to do it at all, that it was meaningless, and that I should definitely jump from a higher place. I felt quite disappointed and stubbornly didn’t change my mind, but in the end, I was told, "It's a waste, but I don't know," as a parting remark. After a long conversation like that, I ended up going to the reception without watching the video I was supposed to see. I can't help but think that if I had been able to watch more videos at that time, I could have reconsidered my choices for photos and videos.
Additionally, it seemed that the data from the GoPro was supposed to be transferred via Airdrop, which I only learned after the jump. There was no explanation about that at the beginning. The Airdrop transfer didn’t go well, and when I checked after leaving the airfield, the data I thought I had received was nowhere to be found; it had disappeared. When I called to inquire, the phone support was very disappointing, and they said they wouldn't know anything unless I came back. I asked if there were any methods other than Airdrop, but the person didn’t know, so I ended up having to go back. Since I had already driven about 30 minutes away, it resulted in a significant loss of time, and I couldn’t go to the beach I had planned to visit. After returning, the attitude of the staff at the reception was also not very good, which was very disappointing considering it was such a great experience overall.
Last time, I jumped in Hawaii, and I felt that the overall support there was better. Skydiving itself is highly recommended, and I can confidently say that you should definitely try it!
私は2回目のジャンプでしたが、友達は初めての挑戦でした。
終始緊張していて、顔もこわばっていましたが、実際飛んだ後はとても笑顔で「やって良かった!ハマりそう!!」と言っていました。
モモンガスーツの人が同じ飛行機にいて、順番的にその方が落ちるところが見れなかったのが心残りでした。
写真やムービーに関しては絶対にカメラマンに飛んでもらった方が正解です!
私はGoproを選びましたが、パラシュートの段階でインストラクターの方の手が使えなくなるのでその前までの映像でした。
事前に説明があれば絶対カメラマンに飛んでもらったのにな…と残念さを感じました。
また、説明は日本人?のおじいさんがしてくれたので日本語の対応は全く問題ありません。
しかし低い高度から飛ぶプランを選んでいたら、それならやらない方がマシ、意味がない、絶対高い所から飛ぶべきと何度も言われました。
なんだか残念でこちらも頑なに変更しなかったのですが、最後は勿体無いけどしらないよと捨て台詞でした。
そんな会話が長くあり実際見るはずのビデオなどは見ずに受付に行く事になりました。
この時にビデオをもっと見れていたら写真ムービーの時の選択を考えられたと思わずにはいられません。
またGoproの場合はデータをAirdropで渡す事になっていたようで飛んだ後に知りました。
その説明も最初にらありませんでした。
Airdropのやり取りが上手く行かず、一度は来たと思ったデータが飛行場を出た後に確認したところどこにもなく消えてしまっていました。
電話で問い合わせたところ、あまりにも残念な電話対応の末に戻ってきてもらわなきゃわからないと。Airdrop以外の方法はないのか聞きましたが、この方にはわからないとの返答だったため結局戻ることに。
30分ほど車で進んでしまっていた為、かなりのタイムロス。予定していたビーチに行くことが出来ませんでした。
戻った後の受付の方の態度もあまり良くなく、とても良い体験だっただけにその辺りがとてもとても残念でした。
前回はスカイダイブ・ハワイで飛びましたが
そちらの方が全体的に対応が良かった印象です。
スカイダイビング自体はとてもオススメで、絶対にやった方が良い!と言い切れます!

There are few activities that small children can do, and this place has a calm atmosphere with fewer people. The staff was kind, and we were able to enjoy it as a family. Even those who don't ride can walk alongside, allowing for photos during the ride. It became a wonderful memory, spending time exclusively as a family rather than in a group like at places such as Kualoa Ranch.
小さな子供ができる数少ないアクティビティで人も少なくゆっくりとした雰囲気でスタッフの方も優しくて家族で楽しむことが出来ました。乗馬しない方も歩いて付き添う事が出来るので乗馬中の写真なども撮ることができます。クアロアランチのように団体で、ではなく家族オンリーの時間を過ごす事ができる素敵な思い出になりました。
私たちはあなたが素晴らしい時間を過ごしたことをとても嬉しく思います!また来ていただけることを願っています!
We are so glad you had a great time! We hope you come again!

Mahalo Larry for taking the time to leave a testimonial. It is wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Keola - he is one of the best! Yes, our hikes are definitely not leisure nature walks so weʻre glad that you folks were down for an adventure. Take care, safe travels, and we hope to see you again in the islands.
