All Reviews for Outdoor Adventures

It was absolutely amazing!!! I chose the 4,000m option, and that was the right choice! I think with the 2,000m, there wouldn't be enough time in the air before the parachute opens. I will definitely repeat this when I go to Hawaii again!!!

めちゃくちゃサイコーーでした！！！
4,000ｍの方を選びましたが、こちらで正解！2000ｍだとパラシュート開くまでの飛んでる時間が少ないと思います。
またハワイに行ったら絶対リピートします！！！

The nature in Hawaii, the kindness of the staff, everything was great. I recommend it to everyone going to Hawaii! It might be tough for those with a fear of heights.

ハワイの自然、スタッフの優しさ、すべて良かったです。ハワイに行く皆様にオススメします！高所恐怖症の方には厳しいかもしれません。

First of all, Japanese is hardly understood here. Even if you're not good at English, it's better to have at least a basic understanding to keep up. Those who think they can get by without knowing any English in Hawaii might find some things difficult to understand. Many guidebooks mention that Japanese is often not spoken in the North Shore, and that's quite accurate.

There are seven zip lines, but the first one is a practice zip line that is about 300 meters long (including this practice, there are eight zip lines in total). After a brief explanation of the harness and equipment installation precautions, you jump right into the practice. There's no time to be scared; you just have to dive in (laughs). The first tower is about 7 to 8 meters high, I think. As someone with a fear of heights, I couldn't afford to be scared and went for the first practice. Family members and other participants also had to take their turns without hesitation. Once this practice was over, we took a nine-person buggy to the top of the mountain for the main event. The eight main zip lines started from there. There was a brief downpour during the ride, but the two hours flew by.

As the name "Keana Farm" suggests, we slid down over the farm, which felt really nice, and I think the longest zip line of 800 meters is possible because it's on a farm. The kids were also having a great time without any fear.

　まず・・・日本語はほとんど通じません。英語が得意で無くとも何と無くやっとついて行ける程度で良いので分かった方が良いです。ハワイだから英語は微塵も分からなくて大丈夫と腹をくくってる人には逆に理解できないところが少し有るかも知れません。色んなガイドブックにノースショアの方は日本語が通じない事も多いと書かれてありますがそれに近いです。
　７本のジップラインですが、最初のにいきなり300メートルくらいの練習ジップライン（この練習を含めると８本のジップライン）。ハーネスや金具の取り付け注意事項の説明の後すぐこの練習用で実践です。怖いとか言っている暇は無く有無を言わさず飛び込むしか有りません（笑）。最初の塔は７～８メートルくらいは有るのでしょうか。高所恐怖症の私ですが怖いなんか言ってられず１本目の練習を実践。家族や他の参加者の方々も次々と有無を言わさず順番が回ってきます。この練習が終われば本番の為９人乗りのバギーで山頂へ。ここから８本、本番がスタートです。途中スコールも数分降りましたが２時間強があっという間でした。
　ケアナファームと言うだけあって、農園の上を次々と滑り降りていくのでとても気持ちよく最長800メートルという長さを経験できるのも農場だからなのだと思います。
　子供たちも怖がらずとっても楽しんでました。

This is my third time, isn't it silly...

Last year, the weather was bad, so I couldn't go the second time...
This time, there were many clouds and it looked like it was going to rain, but the first group went without any issues...
The following groups waited, and then a rainbow appeared, and we were good to go. That's great!

３度目です、ばかですねー・・・・・

去年、天候悪く２度目が出来なかったものですから・・・・・
今回、雲多く雨降りそう降ってきた、一組目は問題なく・・・
その後の組は待機、虹も出てGOです。いいですねーーー

For those considering it, it's the best.

However, there are costs for instructor photos and videos, as well as photographer photos and videos. When combined, these can exceed the cost of skydiving itself, so please be aware. While the price of skydiving is cheaper compared to other countries... there are also tips to consider.

やってみよう考えてる方へ、最高です。

ただ、インストラクター写真・ビデオ、カメラマン写真・ビデオ、などあります。組み合わせると、これだけでスカイダイビングの料金より上回りますので、ご注意ください。スカイダイビングの料金は、他国に比べて安いのですが・・・・・
あとチップなんかもあります。

It was rainy, but the waterfall was very beautiful. I was impressed that so much nature is still preserved. I want to come again. The guide also explained things well.

雨模様でしたが滝がとてもきれいでした。自然がまだたくさん残されていて感激しました。またきたいとおもいます。ガイドさんもよく説明してくらました。

Until the moment of takeoff, I felt a bit scared for about a second after we took off, but after that, I was able to enjoy it! It's reassuring that they speak in Japanese, but I think it would be even more enjoyable if you could speak a little English!

飛び立つ瞬間までは、、、飛び立って1秒くらいは恐怖でしたが、それからは楽しめました！日本語で話してくれるので、安心ですが、英語が少しでもできた方がもっと楽しめると思います！

We managed to communicate with a little bit of the guide's Japanese and our little bit of English, and that was fun in its own way. The hike took about 30 minutes one way; it was sunny, but the ground was muddy and slippery, so they lent us walking sticks. Safety was the top priority for the guide, so taking photos while walking was a no-go, but they stopped at points where we could take pictures. The downhill biking was exhilarating! Feeling the wind as we descended the mountain and enjoying the scent of the forest was very pleasant; I took in a lot of fresh air! I realized that it's not just the ocean, but these forests that truly represent Hawaii.

ガイドさんの少しの日本語と こちらの少しの英語 でなんとか コミュニケーションも取り それはそれで楽しかったです。
ハイキングは 片道30分くらい、晴れていましたが 地面はドロドロで滑りやすいので ステッキを貸してくれました。
とにかく 安全第一に ガイドをしてくれるので 歩きながらの撮影は NOで、 ポイントで止まってくれて その時に撮影できます。
バイクでのダウンヒルは 爽快でした！
山を下りながら 風を感じ、 森の香りも とても気持ちよく 、いっぱい空気を吸ってきました！
海だけではなく こういう森こそが ハワイなんだと感じました。

I headed to the airport early in the morning by rental car. From check-in to the briefing, everything went smoothly without any difficulties.

The view after exceeding 4,000 meters was breathtaking.

Even after the parachute opened, we plunged into the clouds, making it an attraction full of service spirit.

However, perhaps due to lack of sleep when I participated, I felt quite fatigued afterward and needed to take a nap after returning to the hotel. I definitely recommend being in good health before participating.

This is the feedback from my entire family, but I feel that having earplugs would make the experience more comfortable. I think there’s a possibility that your ears might hurt during the flight, which could detract from the enjoyment.

As for tips, I don’t think it’s at the level of being forced. It’s possible to give based on personal discretion.

I was nervous about my first skydiving experience, but the feeling of nausea outweighed the fear and excitement. I'm thinking maybe I've had enough.

The oldest participant was 69 years old, and the youngest was 2 years old. We were looking for activities that everyone could enjoy, and we requested this horseback riding experience. The local staff do not speak Japanese, but they are friendly and kind, using gestures to communicate, so I think even those who are not good at English will be fine.

First, they asked if we wanted to wear helmets, and if we chose not to, we were asked to sign a consent form. Then, under the guidance of Sheina, my 2-year-old daughter rode a pony while the adults rode larger horses, taking a leisurely 20-minute walk in a single file through the grasslands and bushes. The horses ridden by the adults would sometimes stop to eat grass, so we had to kick the stirrups to encourage them to move forward, or pull the reins to bring them back into line if they started to walk too fast. It was a very valuable experience to operate the horse by ourselves for the first time.

At the end, my daughter was allowed to brush and feed the pony she was riding, and she was overjoyed (laughs). Even after returning home, she keeps talking about the pony (laughs). The only downside is that there is no transportation provided, so we had to make our own way to the North Shore. However, since we really wanted to go to Gunstock Ranch, we decided to charter a guided car and combine it with a tour of Haleiwa.

The grounds are vast, and the scenery seen while riding the horses is incredibly beautiful. The pleasant breeze and climate were very soothing. I would like to visit again when I come to Hawaii.

最年長は69歳、最年少は2歳、みんなでできるアクティビティーを探していてこちらの乗馬体験をお願いしました。
現地の方は日本語が話せないのですが、フレンドリーで親切な身振り手振りで教えてくれるので英語が苦手な方でも大丈夫だと思います。
最初にヘルメットをかぶるか聞かれて、かぶらない場合は同意書にサインを求められます。
そしてシェイナさんの先導で2歳の娘はポニー、大人は大きな馬に乗って草原や茂みを約20分一列縦隊でお散歩するのですが、大人の乗る馬は途中で草を食べ始めたり止まったりするので、その都度あぶみを蹴って前進を促したり、逆に早足になったら手綱を引いて列に戻るよう促したりと、自分で馬を操作するなんて初めてのとても貴重な体験をさせていただきました。
最後は2歳の娘が乗っていたポニーにブラッシングやえさやりをさせてくれて、娘は大喜び（笑）帰国してもずっとポニーの話をしています（笑）
唯一の難点は、送迎がないのでノースショア方面まで自分で行かなければいけないことですが、どうしてもガンストック牧場でお願いしたかったのでガイド付きの車をチャーターしてハレイワ観光とセットで行くことにしました。
敷地が広大で馬に乗って見る景色は大変美しく、心地よい風と気候で癒されました。またハワイに訪れる際は立ち寄りたいと思います。

This time in Hawaii, I had a 4-night, 6-day plan on Oahu. On the last day, my wife went shopping while I joined a fishing trip alone. The shuttle bus picked me up alone and arrived at the boarding area about five minutes late. Once on board, there were already about 20 guests settled in various spots. I was the only Japanese person, and the rest seemed to be local Hawaiians and Americans. Everyone, including the crew, was cheerful, and they handed me a paper cup saying, "Hey! This is a snack!" Upon closer inspection, I saw that it contained large pieces of squid cut into rings for bait. While fishing with a view of Diamond Head, I suddenly felt a big tug. Everyone exclaimed, "Oh!" The cheerful American, without me asking, grabbed the fish and removed the hook. He posed for a photo looking quite satisfied as if he had caught it himself. For someone like me who often goes fishing in Japan, it felt a bit intrusive.

Still, both the guests and the crew were very friendly, and I had a great time chatting about fishing with those around me. One slightly disappointing thing was that although it was supposed to include "shuttle service," no one came to pick me up for the return trip, so I had to make my own way back to the hotel. (That wouldn't happen in Japan.)

今回のハワイは、オアフ島に4泊6日の予定で、最後の日、ワイフはショッピング、私は一人で釣りに参加した。迎えのバスは私１人で、５分ほど遅れて乗船場に着いた。乗り込むと、既に２０人ほどの客が思い思いの場所を陣取っていた。日本人は私一人だけで、現地のハワイアンとアメリカンの様でした。クルーを含めてみんな陽気な人たちばかりでヘイ―！これスナックだ！と紙コップを渡してくれた。よく見るとその中にはイカを輪切りにした大きな餌が入っていた。ダイアモンドヘッドを見ながら釣りをしていたら突然大きな手ごたえがあった。みんなオーと歓声が上がった。陽気なアメリカンは頼みもしないのに、魚をつかみ針を外してくれた。いかにも自分が釣り上げたかのように満足そうに写真に納まっていた。日本では、よく釣りに行く私にとって、ちょっとおせっかいだな～。
それでも、客もクルーもとても気さくで、周りの人たちと、釣りの話で盛り上がり、とても楽しかった。ちょっと残念なことは〝送迎付き”のはずなのに
帰りは迎えが来ず、自分でホテルに帰った。（日本ではありえないよ）

I felt that this activity is suitable for people in their teens to thirties. First, we check our operating skills on the test course, but in my group, some women in their fifties slightly veered off the route and were moved to the area where they could be driven.

At first, I struggled to keep up without going off course, but after about ten minutes, I started to relax a bit and enjoy the surrounding scenery. There is one break, but other than that, no photos are allowed, so if you want to capture memories, a GoPro is essential.

Honestly, I thought it would be fine to be driven half the time because the views were so magnificent that I wanted to take pictures. We went by rental car, and after the experience, we talked about how it was the right choice to have a rental car since we could explore various places afterward. The location is very easy to find. Next time, I think I might try horseback riding as well.

実際に体感して10代〜30代向けのアクティビティかなと感じました。まずテストコースで操作スキルを確認しますが、私のグループも50代前後の女性がすこしルートを外れ、乗せていってもらう方へ移動させられていました。
私自身も最初は外れずに前へ着いていくのがやっとでしたが、10分ほどですこし余裕がでてきて周りの景色を楽しめました。一度休憩がありますが、その休憩以外は写真など一切ダメなので、残したい方はGoProなどが必須です。
私は正直半分は乗せてもらうのでもいいかなと思うくらい景色が壮大で写真におさめたかったです。レンタカーでいきましたが、体験後にも色々回れ私たちはレンタカーで正解だったねと話しました。場所はすごくわかりやすいです。次行くときは乗馬もありだなと思ってます。

The staff were all cheerful and it was fun. The first course was gentle, gradually leading to a thrilling experience, which was enjoyable!

スタッフさんもみな陽気で楽しかった。最初のコースはお手柔らか目でだんだんスリルを味わえるコースになっていて楽しかった！

I had a very enjoyable time. On the day of the event, I got caught in traffic and was a bit late, but I was able to participate without any major issues.

I attended with a group of nine people, including elementary school students. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the attractions. Personally, I was most excited about the first buggy ride. Among the many tours available, I highly recommend this attraction. I believe you won't regret signing up.

As for tips, someone mentioned it, but there was no particular request for them.

とても楽しい時間でした。
当日、渋滞に巻き込まれ、少し予定時刻に遅れてしまいましたが、大きな問題なく参加出来ました。

小学生を含めた9人での参加。
全員がもれなく楽しめたアトラクションでした。
個人的には、1番最初のバギーが1番興奮しました。
数あるツアーの中でも、お勧めのアトラクションです。申し込んで、損はないと思います。

チップは何方かが書かれてましたが、
特段要求される事はありませんでした。

I participated with my two daughters. The guides were all very kind and helpful. The six zip lines had great views and were so much fun that they ended in no time.

娘2人と私の3人で参加しました。ガイドの方は皆親切に教えてくれました。6本のジップラインは眺めも良くて、楽しくてあっという間に終わりました。

At first, I had trouble breathing and found it difficult to equalize my ears, but I experienced the best views and excitement! The instructor was also a fun person!

はじめは息がうまくできなかったり耳抜きが難しかったけど最高の景色と興奮を味わえました！;-)
インストラクターさんも楽しい人でした！

The guide shared stories about Hawaii and gave us a horseback riding lecture during the drive, which made the travel feel quick. The Dole pineapple soft serve was a good portion, and sharing one between two people was just right. It was refreshing and delicious. The garlic shrimp was also plump and tasty. Riding along the coast and through the forest was very pleasant. It was great that we could take photos as well. I'm glad I participated.

ガイドさんが車内でハワイに関する話や、乗馬レクチャーをしてくださったので、移動も早く感じました。
ドールのパイナップルソフトは量があり、2人で1個買って丁度よかったです。さっぱりしていて美味しかったです。
ガーリックシュリンプもプリプリで美味しかったです。
乗馬も海沿いや林の中を気持ちよく歩けました。写真を撮ってもらえたのもよかったです。
参加してよかったです。

This was my first time skydiving, and at first, I was really worried about whether I could do it. However, I saw many women taking on the challenge, and I didn't want to be left behind. The instructors were responsible and confident in their work, which made me feel a sense of trust and allowed me to enjoy skydiving with peace of mind. The breathtaking views from the sky are something you can't experience anywhere else, so I definitely recommend everyone to give it a try! I plan to challenge myself again when I come back to Hawaii next year.

人生初のスカイダイビング、最初はホントに出来るだろうかと心配しましたが、女性がドンドンチャレンジしていて、負けていられないのと、インストラクターの方が仕事に責任と自信持って取り組まれているので、信頼感が生まれて、安心してスカイダイビング出来ました。空中からの絶景は、他では味わえないから、是非皆さん一度チャレンジしてみては⁉また来年ハワイにきたらチャレンジします。

We had a great driver, he was awesome, very friendly, really informative and very punctual . Was a great service and made our life easy getting to Diamond Head and back to our Hotel

This was my first time participating. It's a place I've always wanted to visit, but somehow I never had the chance to go.
This area can be visited individually, but I definitely recommend going on a guided tour. They provide necessary items (disposable raincoats, waist pouches, walking sticks, water, snack bars, etc.), and they explain various things during the drive and while trekking.
The guide this time primarily spoke English, but occasionally included some Japanese, so it was never boring.
Even if it's sunny in Waikiki, it can be raining just a short 20-minute distance away. Sneakers are a must for your feet.
I want to go again.

今回初めて参加しました。ずっと行きたかった場所ですが、なんだか行くチャンスがなかったんです。
ここは個人でも訪問することが可能なエリアですが、是非ガイド付きのツアーで行くことをお勧めします。必要なグッズ（ディスポのレインコートや、ウエストポーチ、杖、水、スナックバー等）は準備していただけますし、車中、トレッキング最中も、いろいろ説明してくれます。
今回のガイドさんは基本は英語オンリーですが、たまに日本語もはさんでくれたり、、とにかく飽きさせません。
ワイキキは晴れていても、わずか20分程度離れた距離でも雨がふっていたりします。足元はスニーカーは必須です。
また行きたいな。

I was curious about the zip line after watching Ariyoshi's summer vacation. I made a reservation in Hawaii with my friends.

Since we had a rental car, we went directly to the meeting point at the scheduled time. We entered the necessary information on the screen and stored our valuables in a locker. After getting fitted with the equipment, we started practicing.

We climbed to the top using a caterpillar while receiving explanations about the farm's crops, and then it was time for the main event!

We slid down about eight zip lines. There were also various other activities!

At first, I was worried about whether I could handle it, but it was so much fun.

You can bring your smartphone without any issues, but it’s a bit concerning if you don’t have pockets with zippers. Having a GoPro would be even better!

有吉の夏休みを見て気になっていたジップライン。
友達とのハワイで予約しました。

レンタカーだったので、集合時間に直接向かいました。
必要事項を画面に入力し、貴重品はロッカーに預けます。
器具をつけてもらって練習開始。

農園の作物などの説明を受けながらキャタピラで上まで登り、いざ本番開始！

ジップラインは8本ほど滑りました。
ジップライン以外にもいろいろとありました！

最初は頑張れるか不安になりましたが、とっても楽しかったです。

スマホは持っていっても問題ないですが、
ファスナーがついているポケットなどがないと不安です。
GoProがあればなお良いかと！

Our time at the ranch turned out to be the highlight of our vacation. Our guide was awesome!!
If you travel to Hawai'i, this is a must see.

It’s a very good tour around the mountain with kids. A few movie filming site is a bonus! Highly recommended!

It's not a very difficult trail course. In my opinion, it consumes about one-third of the energy compared to Diamond Head or Makapu'u Trail. The guide was also entertaining and explained about the plants. Since it's mostly shaded, I recommend it for those who are tired of the Hawaiian sun. It's a good idea to bring insect repellent spray!

そんなに辛くないトレイルコースです。
私の感覚では、ダイアモンドヘッドやマカプウトレイルの1/3ぐらいの体力消費だと思います。
ガイドさんも面白く、植物について説明してくれました。
ほぼオール木陰なので、ハワイの日差しに疲れた方にお勧めです。
虫除けスプレーを持って行った方が良いですよ～

The instructors and the transportation staff were all great people, and it was really wonderful! The view from above the clouds was truly amazing.

インスタクターの人も送迎の人達も
いい人達でとても良かったです！！
雲の上からの景色が本当に最高でした。

I thought we could definitely go by ourselves, but while climbing, it was great to learn about the names of plants and hear stories about birds.
Finally, having lunch in Kapiolani Park was nice and open.
I heard that there hadn't been much water in the waterfall for the past two weeks, but when we went, thanks to some rain a little earlier, there was water flowing. We were lucky.

きっと自分達だけでも行けるのだと思いましたが、登っていく間に、植物の名前を教えてもらえたり、鳥の話をしてもらえたり、とってもよかったです。
最後にカピオラニ公園でのランチもオープンな感じでよかったです。
ここ２週間くらい滝の水がほとんどなかったそうですが、私たちが行った時は、少し前の雨のおかげで、水が流れていました。ラッキーでした。

Overall, the experience was very good, but the instructor was a bit of a letdown. They were constantly fiddling with their phone, and while other instructors were more thorough in their explanations, this one was quick and left me feeling a bit uneasy. Yet, they were quite insistent about the tip. However, the scenery during the dive was amazing, and the optional video was nicely edited, which was great.

体験全体としてはとても良かったが、インストラクターかハズレだった。ずっと携帯をいじっているし、説明も他の人はもう少し丁寧にやっているのに、一瞬で終わって少し不安になった。そのくせチップはしっかり要求してきた。でも、ダイブ中のけしきは最高だし、オプションのビデオもいい感じに編集してあって、よかった。

The morning gathering was tough at 5 AM, but an amazing experience awaited that blew all that away! Since there were only experienced riders, I felt very safe during my first flight. There was no fear at all; it was just exhilarating!

朝の集合は５時ときつかったですが、そんなことを吹き飛ばす最高の体験が待ってました！
経験豊富なライダーばかりだからとても安心して初飛行できました。恐怖は全然なくて、とにかく爽快でした！

Horseback riding in Hawaii. There are various options, but this was the only place I found that allows small children to ride, so I made a request. I thought it would be a short experience, more like a child's play (laughs), but to my surprise... we got to ride on a big, adorable horse and explore the mountain trails!

It was a unique experience that you can't have in Japan, and I really enjoyed it. My 2-year-old daughter fell asleep, so her dad rode instead. I had only made a reservation for my grandchild, but they easily accommodated changing it to one adult for my grandchild and adding another adult.

Next time, we plan to go on a trip with just the grandparents, and I want to go horseback riding at Turtle Bay, where we went for our honeymoon (laughs). It will be next New Year's, so I hope to see you then!

ハワイで乗馬。色々有るけど小さな子供の乗れる乗馬はここしか見つからず、お願いしました。時間も短いし、子供騙し(笑)的な感じで乗るんだろうなぁ～と思いきや……
本格的に大きな可愛いお馬に乗れて、山道散策！
日本では、味わえない経験が出来て、とても楽しめました。2歳の女の子は寝てしまってパパが代わりに乗れました。孫だけの予約をしていたのですが、あちらで、孫1人大人に変更と、大人1人追加も簡単に対応していただきました。
次回は、じぃじ&ばぁばの2人旅の予定なので、新婚旅行で行った(笑)タートルベイの乗馬に行きたいなぁ‼って言ってます。来年のお正月になりますが、その時もヨロシクお願いします。
