I thought I wouldn't be able to fly due to fear, but since it's a streamlined process, you definitely can! There is a sequence, so you might have to wait a bit before and after flying, but after you jump, everyone is filled with adrenaline and super hyped! I was picked up at the hotel at 7:05 and arrived at the hotel at 12:00. They provide transportation in order of completion, and I was lucky to be one of the earlier ones.
The foreign instructors were very skilled, which was reassuring. They were bright and had great responses. The overall explanation was given by a Japanese person. The minimum tip for the instructor is $20. If you request video or photo shooting, the minimum for the cameraman is also $20. For the transportation staff, they mentioned something like the round-trip fare... I thought it was a bit expensive since the sense of tipping is different from Japan, but I guess that's how it is. Well, I think it depends on how you phrase it. They said, "Tipping is a given!" so... I experienced a different culture. Haha. Since you're entrusting your life to them, I don't mind being generous with the tip.
恐怖で飛べないかと思いきや、流れ作業なので、絶対に飛べます!!順番があるので飛ぶ前後に多少待たされますが、飛んだ後は皆さんアドレナリンが出てすごくハイテンションになっていました!7:05ホテルピックアップで、ホテルへ着いたのが12:00でした。終わった人から順番に送迎してくれます。私は早い方でラッキーでした。
外国人インストラクターの方はとても手馴れた様子で安心できます。明るくて対応も良いです。
全体的な説明は日本人の方がしてくれました。チップはインストラクターへは最低20ドル。ビデオや写真撮影を頼んだらカメラマンには最低20ドル。送迎スタッフへは往復分の交通費分くらいは…と説明されました。やはり、日本と感覚が違うのでちょっと高いなと思いましたがそんなものなのですね。まぁ、言い方もあると思いますが。「チップは当然!」という言い方でしたので…。異文化を体験できました。笑 それに命を預けているので、チップは奮発しても惜しくないです。

My first horseback riding experience was very enjoyable. Additionally, I was satisfied to fully appreciate the nature of Kualoa, which is also a power spot.
At first, I was scared, but I got used to it in about 10 minutes. It seems that each horse has its own personality; some are serious while others just eat grass.
By the way, I think it's better to wear a hat. It can be quite tough if the sun is blazing. For those who want to take photos, it's safer to use a strap around your neck since you'll be operating with one hand. It's difficult and dangerous to control the horse with one hand, so take photos sparingly.
Riding slowly through the great outdoors was a lot of fun.
初めての乗馬はとても良い経験になりました。
加えてパワースポットでもあるクアロアの自然を
思い切り味わえて満足できました。
最初は怖かったけど10分もすれば慣れてきます。
馬にも個性があるらしく、真面目な子もいれば
草ばっかり食べている子もいます。
ちなみに帽子は被ったほうが良いと思います。
太陽がカンカンだと結構きついかも。

片手で馬を操るのは難しく危ないので、

Children around the age of elementary school can ride alone! The horses are trained for riding at the hotel, so it may not be thrilling for those seeking excitement. There aren’t many tours that allow you to ride a horse while enjoying views of the ocean, so I recommend it for that reason as well. The horses walk in a line, and there’s hardly any running, so it may not satisfy those who want to gallop. At the end, you can hand over your camera to have photos taken. It's a memorable tour!
小学生年長くらいの子供であれば1人で乗れちゃいます!
ホテルで飼いならされた乗馬用の馬なので、スリルを望む人には物足りないです。
馬に乗って海を見ながらと言うツアーはあまりないので、そういった意味でもオススメです。
一列に並び馬が歩くのが基本で、ほぼ走ることはないので馬で走り去りたい人には物足りないです。
最後に自分のカメラを渡すと写真撮ってもらえます。
思い出になるツアーです!

I participated in a tour called "Activity Paradise Tour" in North Shore (Haleiwa), where we could choose from various activities like horseback riding and hiking.
We signed up as a group of 12, with 7 people opting for horseback riding, 3 for free time, and 2 for the pineapple train. However, by making a request in advance, we were all able to join the same bus.
Since we were a large group of 12, we had a private vehicle, and thanks to the guide's arrangements, we all got to ride the pineapple train unexpectedly, while those who chose free time were guided to the beach and other attractions, allowing for quite a bit of freedom in our activities.
Our guide was Japanese and provided various explanations about the plants and birds, making the ride lively with interesting stories, which made for a very enjoyable time.
We went horseback riding, and there were children aged 5, 9, 10, and 11 participating. Initially, I was a bit worried, but the horses were very smart and we had a lot of fun riding. Experiencing the wind and scenery as we rode through the valley seemed to leave a strong impression on the children, and it became their favorite memory from this trip.
Next time, I would like to try coastal walks and another horseback riding plan.
ノースショア(ハレイワ)観光 プラン(乗馬・ハイキング他)を選べる・アクティビティ天国ツアーに参加しました。
12人で申込み、7人が乗馬、3人がフリータイム、2人がパイナップル列車、で申し込みましたが、事前にお願いすることで、全員同じバスでの参加になりました。
12人の大人数であったためか、車1台貸切となり、案内いただいたガイドの方の計らいで、急遽全員パイナップル列車に乗ってみたり、フリータイムメンバにはビーチや観光に案内いただいたりと、かなり自由行動をさせていただきました。
ガイドの方は日本人の方で、草木や鳥に至るまでいろいろ説明いただき、面白い話で車内盛り上がったりと、大変楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
我々は乗馬をしましたが、5歳/9歳/10歳11歳の子供が参加しており、当初は少し不安でしたが、馬が大変利口で楽しく乗馬ができました。渓谷を抜ける風や風景を見たり肌で楽しみなが大きな馬に乗って、子供たちにとってはすごくインパクトがあったようで、今回の旅行での一番の思い出になったようです。
今度は海岸散策や別の乗馬プランも試してみたいと思いました。

The first half of the eco-hiking didn't use as much energy as I had worried about, and it was helpful that the pace was adjusted to match the other participants. The guide also explained the jungle in detail (in English), which made it very enjoyable.
On the other hand, the second half of the mountain biking was quite disappointing compared to the eco-hiking. First of all, the bike was not a mountain bike but a regular bike (the advertisement mentioned it had front suspension, but it didn't). While the scenery was indeed beautiful, the speed was very slow. The course was just a winding road on regular pavement, so there was no need to pedal at all, but the pace was so slow that I had to keep the brakes on. In any case, the refreshing feeling was lacking.
Additionally, a point to note is that there were only two toilet breaks: one before entering the jungle and one when exiting, and after that, there were no toilets until we returned to the hotel. This is something to be cautious about.
Since the first half of the eco-hiking was good, the second half of the mountain biking was a letdown, which is why I have highlighted these points.
前半のエコハイキングは、心配していたほど体力は使わず、ペースも参加メンバーに合わせてくれて助かりました。またガイドさんが丁寧にジャングルのことを説明(英語です)してくれて、とても楽しめました。
後半のマウンテンバイクは、エコハイキングとは逆にとてもがっかりしました。まずは、バイクがマウンテンバイクでなく普通のバイク(広告の説明文ではフロントサス付とありますが、サスなしです)で、確かに景色はとても良いのですが、いかんせんスピードがスローです。コースは普通の舗装路のワインディングロードを下るだけなので、全くペダルを漕ぐ必要がないのですが、ペースがあまりに遅いので、ブレーキのかけっぱなしです。いずれにしろ、爽快感はイマイチでした。
あと、問題点としてトイレ休憩が、ジャングルへ入る前に1回、ジャングルを出るときに1回、あとは帰りのホテルに着くまでトイレはありません。要注意です。
せっかく、前半のエコハイキングが良い分、後半のマウンテンバイクが期待はずれでしたので、このようなポイントになりました。

The guy at the gate was screaming at everyone bec they have to pay for the entrance fee. If I didn't tell him i got the package deal from this webstie he would have double charged me.

The application date was canceled due to changes in the weather, but the following day the weather was excellent and it felt amazing. It's understandable since it's about an hour from Waikiki, but the waiting time after the activity was a bit too long, which is a minor drawback.
申込日は天候の変化で中止となってしまいましたが、翌日は天候も抜群で最高に気持ち良かったです。ワイキキから1時間の距離なので仕方ないかも知れませんが、アクティビティ終了後の待ち時間が長すぎるのが玉に瑕かな?

I went horseback riding at Turtle Bay. The guide's explanations on the way to Haleiwa were very interesting, with local insights that made the journey feel shorter. Before we started riding, I got to touch a pony, but unfortunately, I was lightly (?) bitten by the affectionate pony, and even after 4-5 days, the bruise is still painful, which is disappointing. I really appreciated that they asked for our preference on whether to have lunch early or late. The main horseback riding experience was enjoyable while overlooking the ocean.

It was a very enjoyable tour. Since it was just my first-grade daughter and me traveling together, we opted for taxi transportation instead of renting a car for sightseeing. My daughter, who loves horses, has been riding since she was three, but being a flag bearer for 90 minutes on her own was a new experience! This is a tour that you can't have in Japan. On top of that, we were able to visit sightseeing spots, and both mother and child had a great time! My daughter seemed happy to gain some confidence as well. I highly recommend this tour! Next time, I want to go horseback riding by the seaside!

We participated in a 90-minute canyon horseback riding tour (morning departure) as a family of three.
My wife and daughter (4th grade) who usually attend a riding club were captivated by the outdoor riding and scenery that they don't usually experience, and even as a first-timer, I felt safe participating. I think this horseback riding experience can be enjoyed by both seasoned riders and beginners.
One point to note is that there are some ups and downs along the way, and the vibrations can be quite noticeable, so those with back pain should be cautious (I was battling back pain partway through). Also, there are no drinks available at the ranch, so it's better to buy some in advance.
The absolute worst part was that the air conditioning on the tour bus was broken. We were crammed into the bus with a large group (our family was in the very back seat), and it was suffocating and extremely hot... I couldn't help but wonder why we had to endure such discomfort after paying for this. It's absolutely unacceptable for a bus in Hawaii to have no air conditioning.
I will never use this tour company again, but the canyon horseback riding was fantastic, so I would like to use a different tour company for horseback riding in the future.

乗馬クラブに通っている妻と娘(小4)も普段味わえない外乗や景色に魅了され楽しむことができ、初経験の私でも安心して参加することができ、乗馬に慣れた人でも初心者でも楽しめる乗馬だと思います。
注意点としては、途中アップダウンがあり振動が結構伝わるので、腰痛持ちの人は気をつけた方がいいと思います(私は途中から腰痛との闘いでした)。あと、ドリンクは牧場にはありませんので、事前に買っておいた方がいいです。
超最悪だったのは、ツアーバスのエアコンが壊れてたこと。
大人数でバスに詰められ(我が家は一番後ろの席だったのですが)息苦しく、暑くて暑くて…。。お金を払って何でこんな思いをしなければならないのだろう??と。
ハワイのバスでエアコンが効かないなんて…絶対ありえないです。

Last year, I challenged myself to North Shore sightseeing and valley horseback riding with my grandchild again this year. Since it was my grandchild's strong wish, we couldn't miss the valley horseback riding when we went to Hawaii.
For sightseeing, we stopped by Moanalua Gardens (famous for "This is the tree, what kind of tree, a tree that piques your interest"), then visited Dole, Haleiwa, and saw turtles basking on the beach before the main event of valley horseback riding. I felt a pleasant fatigue in my body, and for lunch, we had garlic shrimp. It was a day filled with fulfilling activities.
My grandchild said that we absolutely can't miss this activity again next year. Riding alone on horseback, which is not something you can experience often, was enjoyable.
昨年に続き、今年もノースショアー観光と渓谷乗馬に孫とともにチャレンジしました、孫のたっての願だったのでハワイに行ったら渓谷乗馬ははずせません。

It wasn't like running through a grassland; it felt more like going through a Western-style wilderness.
It was refreshing to add this to the activities that were mostly by the sea. The horses were calm and cute. They followed the horse in front of them in a line, so it was easy even if you didn't have to control them. It might be a bit unsatisfying for those who want to run fast.
There is no shuttle service, so you have to get there on your own. The landmarks are not very big, so it's necessary to inform the bus driver that you want to get off. Also, for the return trip, it's wise to check the bus schedule since there is only one bus per hour and wait at the ranch.
草原を走るようなイメージではなく、ウエスタンのような荒野を行く感じでした。
海ばかりのアクティビティにプラスするには、新鮮でよかったです。馬もおとなしくてかわいかったです。自分で操作しなくても一列になって前の馬について行ってくれるので、楽でした。早く走りたいかたには物足りないかもしれません。
送迎なしなので、現地まで自分たちで行かなければなりません。目印がそこまで大きくないので、バスの運転手さんに降りる旨を伝えておく必要があります。また、帰りは一時間に一本のバスに乗るため時間を調べておいて、牧場で待つほうが賢明です。

We participated in a 1.5-hour tour with three family members. First, the location of the ranch was hard to find (it turned out that if you drive from Honolulu, you can only see the entrance sign from the opposite direction), and I think we were able to navigate the narrow mountain road during the daytime. We showed our voucher at a small hut marked "office" to check in. After receiving instructions on how to ride the horse (which can mostly be understood through gestures), we were off.
Since it all depends on the horse's mood, if you fall behind the line, you might be urged to hurry along. Sometimes, the horses can suddenly start running as if they are being charged. This adds a thrill, but it can also be a bit scary. Overall, it was a fun experience, but the bumpy paths with ups and downs might feel a bit hard for beginners.
家族3人で1.5時間のツアーに参加しました。
まず、牧場の位置がわかりづらく(ホノルルから車で行くと入り口の看板が逆方向からしかわからないと判明しました)且つ山道のような一本道を信じて進んでいくのは昼間なのでできたかと思います。
officeと書かれた小屋で受付のバウチャーを見せて完了。馬の乗り方の説明を受けて(ほとんどゼスチャーでわかります。)いざ出発です。
何せ馬のご機嫌次第ですので列から離れて遅れると急げとばかりに走らされます。馬的にはチャージさせられていきなり走ることもあります。ここでスリルがありますが怖いといえば怖いかもです。
全体には楽しく過ごせますが、でこぼこ道が大半でアップダウンですので初心者には少しハードかなと感じました。

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.

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。

The transportation (tour) was a shared style with people from other groups, primarily using a van. The tour guide provided commentary on the highlights throughout the journey. First, we visited "Moanalua Gardens" and "Dole Plantation," and then we arrived in "Haleiwa." At 10:15, we were taken to Turtle Beach, where we were lucky enough to encounter a "sea turtle" at Laniakea Beach. After that, we returned to the charming town of Haleiwa, which has an old Hawaiian atmosphere, and enjoyed about three hours of free time. I was satisfied with indulging in B-grade gourmet food like "Huli Huli Chicken, Garlic Shrimp, and Shave Ice." Along the way, we also enjoyed shopping at Surf and Sea (the shops were having a sale with 50% off, which was a great deal). We gathered at the shopping center at 14:15 and were taken back to the hotel. We arrived at the hotel at 15:15 and disbanded.
7/29ノースショア(ハレイワ)観光に参加しました。8:10ホテルロビーに集合しみんなで一緒にノースショアへ出発! 移動(観光)は他グループの人たちと一緒に楽しむスタイルで基本は乗り合いです。ツアーガイドさんは移動中に終始見どころについての解説をしてくれます。まずは「モアナルアガーデン」「ドールプランテーション」を経て「ハレイワの町へ」到着しました。10:15私たちはまずウミガメビーチに連れて行ってもらいました。ラニアケアビーチでは運良く「ウミガメ」に遭遇することができました。その後、昔ながらのハワイの雰囲気が漂う古きよき町ハレイワに戻り約3時間のフリータイムです。「フリフリチキン・ガーリックシュリンプ・シェイブアイス」のB級グルメをハシゴして食し満足でした。途中サーフ・アンド・シー ショッピングも楽しみました(ショップはセール中で50%Offでお得でした)
14:15にショッピングセンターに集合しホテルまで送ってもらいました。15:15ホテル到着し解散しました。

Had alot of fun exploring the Kualoa Ranch. First day it rained and 5 minutes into the ride - we cancelled, however, they accomodated us with another day. The second try, it was also raining in the morning, they supplied us with rain coats and we were on our way. It stopped raining and we had a beautiful ride. Our guide was very informative and alot of fun. The land is amazing and beautiful and the horses wonderful. The scenery was absolutely fabulous and I would recommend this Hawaiin adventure as part of your trip.

I have visited Hawaii many times, but this was my first time in the North. I wanted to experience all the representative parts of the North Tour, and I also wanted some free time at a famous beach, so I decided to join this tour. It turned out to be a very memorable and enjoyable tour with more activities than I expected. The tour guide was very kind and even dropped us off right in front of our hotel, which was really helpful. The guide's stories were interesting and entertaining, and they were all things you wouldn't hear unless you participated in the tour, making it a fulfilling experience. I'm glad I was able to join. I would like to look for another tour here next time as well. I want to thank the tour guide from Saturday, July 28th.
ハワイは何度も来ておりますが、ノースへは初めて、ということでノースツアーの代表的な部分は全て行きたいと思い、なおかつ、有名なビーチでの自由時間も欲しいと思い、今回こちらのツアーに参加させていただきました。思った以上にいろいろなことができてとても思い出に残る楽しいツアーとなりました。ツアーガイドさんがとても親切で、帰りはホテル前まで送って下さり本当に助かりました。ガイドさんのお話も興味深く面白く、ツアーに参加しないと聞けないお話ばかりでしたので、充実したツアーとなり参加できてよかったです。また次回もこちらでツアーを探したいと思います。7/28土曜日のツアーガイドさんにお礼を言いたいです。

Cycling was very pleasant, and we took a pathless route to Manoa Falls. I felt a bit anxious about where we were going, but I desperately followed the guide. When we finally arrived at Manoa Falls, I was pleasantly sweaty. It was an activity I would definitely like to participate in again.
サイクリングも気持ちよく、マノア滝へは道なき道を行き、どこへ行くのか少々不安になりながらガイドさんに必死についていき、マノア滝に着いたときはとても気持ちの良い汗をかいていました。また、是非もう一度参加したいアクティビティでした。

Book this tour - if you love the outdoors and want a 'real experience' you will not be disappointed.
The bike ride is a great way to see the sights and is very relaxing. The bikes are very easy to ride and is mostly downhill.
The Hike allows you to get out of the concrete jungle and commercial centre of Waikiki, but be warned this is not a gentle 'stroll' this is a decent bush walk around 2 hrs, so make sure you read the recommended 'what to wear' list that is on the voucher. You will walk through a real rain forest and learn about the unique forest of Oahu along the way, so don't let a little mud scare you.
The boat ride and snorkel is a magical way to end an action packed day. Gear is provided. It was refreshing that the boat was not packed to capacity, and again was a 'real' experience. We swam with turtles and then sailed back to the marina, this was also a great way to see Waikiki from the water.
This was a very refreshing tour and a highlight of our trip. It was gre

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. Ross matched us with great horses and took us on a great ride. We helped herd cows, went into the brush and up a mountain for views that were just amazing. This ride was truly one of the highlights of our most amazing trip to O'ahu. Thank you!
