クアロア・ランチ　乗馬体験(2時間)　映画ロケ地にもなった雄大な大自然を馬に乗って満喫！＜送迎付きプランあり＞

I participated in the ATV tour at Kualoa Ranch. クアロア牧場バギーに参加してきました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

In conclusion, it was a very satisfying experience! We participated as a family of three (all in our 20s). It was our first time on buggies, and during the test run, one of us suddenly went off course, but thankfully, none of us were disqualified... The guide adjusted the pace to match us and was always attentive, which made us feel safe. The scenery during the ride was truly wonderful, but if you get too mesmerized, it could affect your driving. One of us mentioned that they were too focused on driving to enjoy the view. We chose the two-hour course, and the speed was quite relaxed, plus we had plenty of breaks, so I think we completed a one-hour course in two hours. I definitely want to sign up for the two-hour course again next time! I highly recommend it, even for first-timers! However, for those with no experience driving cars or motorcycles, it might be quite challenging to get used to it? I'm really glad I participated in this tour.

結論から言うと、大満足の体験でした！家族三人(全て２０代)での参加でした。三人ともバギーは初めてで緊張のテスト走行で、一人だけいきなりのコースアウトをしてしまったもののなんとか全員失格にはならず…ガイドの方も私達に合わせてゆっくり進んでくれ、常にこちらに気を配ってくれており、安心でした。走行中の景色は本当に素晴らしく、見とれていると走行に支障が出る可能性アリ、です。一人は、運転に必死で景色を見ている余裕はなかった、といっておりました。私達は二時間コースだったのですが、かなりゆったりとしたスピードでしたし、休憩時間もたっぷりとってもらったので、１時間コースを２時間で走ったのだと思います。次回も必ず２時間コースを申し込みたいと思います！初めての方でも本当にオススメですよ！ただ、車やバイクの運転経験がまったくない方は、慣れるのがかなり難しい、かも？参加できて良かったと、心から思えるツアーでした。

Well worth it

Reviewed by: Larry

Our family did the Hike, Bike, Sail and Snorkel Tour and had a great time. It gave us a great blend of three different ways to see the island - hiking the rain forest, biking down the mountain (getting a GREAT view of Diamond Head and Waikiki during our lunch break), and snorkeling just off the coast.

Our tour guide, Jeremy, was fantastic. He was very personable and knowledgeable. My 10 year old son, enjoyed hiking and biking right by Jeremy and asking a TON of questions. And Jeremy did a superb job of answering all of his questions, never being bothered by them.

My family would definitely recommend this tour (all three parts) to anyone.

This activity was well worth spending money for.
In one hour you have seen the entire island from a bird's eye view.
Way better than any island tour from the ground in uncomfortable tourbusses.
The heli is great, peacefull and very safy & smooth. Also because of a great pilot / tour guide. He knows the island well, just as much how he knows his aircraft.

As a to-become heli-pilot myself, it's been great seeing one pilot entertaining 6 people while keeping the heli as smooth & steady as possible and forfilling a safe flight in constant contact with the tower all by himself.

Cheers for that,mate!
And to the entire team of Makani Kai Heli Tours for having had a wonderfull morning!

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＞

Wonderful! 素晴らしい♪

Reviewed by: Junko

During a family trip, I participated alone on April 2nd. My family (husband, mother-in-law, and son) joined a private tour on-site and explored from start to finish. After finishing diving around 10 AM, I was able to join my family for a private tour around Oahu.

It was my first time, and when I initially signed the waiver, I thought, "Should I back out...?" But I'm glad I took the plunge. As the plane ascended, we broke through the clouds, and I felt like saying, "Are we still going up?" However, from the dive point, there was no hesitation as we jumped one after another. Thanks to our instructor, Mike, I was able to enjoy the thrill of skydiving while feeling secure. Once the parachute opened, we descended slowly and leisurely. The coastline on the north side of Oahu was beautifully visible, and I was amazed to see my feet floating at such a high altitude, adding to the thrill.

After landing, I high-fived Mike! It was a truly precious and wonderful experience. Next time I go to Hawaii, I will definitely participate again. Thank you, Mike and all the staff!

家族での旅行中、４／２に私だけ参加しました。家族（夫・義母・息子）はプライベートツアーで現地で合流し、最初から最後まで見学してました。１０時過ぎにはダイビングが終了したので、そのままオアフ島周遊のプライベートツアーに家族と参加できましたよ。

私自身初めてで、最初に承諾書にサインする際に「やめようかな・・・」とも思いましたが、思い切って飛んでよかったです。
飛行機で上空へ上がるのに雲も突き抜け「まだ上がるの~？」といった気分でしたが、ダイブポイントからは躊躇する間もなく、次々と落ちていきます。インストラクターのマイクさんのおかげでスリルを味わいながらも安心してスカイダイビングできました。パラシュートが開いてからはゆっくりのんびりと落ちてきます。オアフ島北側の海岸線がきれいに見えて感動し、足元をみるとあまりにも高いところに浮かんでいる自分の足が見え、更なるスリルを味わいます。
着地後は、マイクさんとハイタッチ！とても貴重で素晴らしい体験ができました。次回ハワイへ行ったら必ず参加します。
マイクさん、スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました。

クアロア・ランチ　乗馬体験(2時間)　映画ロケ地にもなった雄大な大自然を馬に乗って満喫！＜送迎付きプランあり＞

For those who want to fully enjoy the nature of Hawaii. ハワイの自然を満喫したい方に。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

It was a two-hour horseback ride, but it went by in no time. At first, I was nervous about whether I could control the horse, but those worries were completely unnecessary. The horses were very well-trained and would speed up or walk in line with the instructor's whistle, following the horse in front of them. There was no need to control them at all; in fact, the horses might have found it annoying if given strange commands.

As I got used to it, I had the opportunity to look around and learned about the filming locations of things like Jurassic Park. The instructions were mostly in English, but when they saw Japanese people, they would ask if it would be better to give instructions in Japanese. So, there’s no need to worry about the language.

Surrounded by wonderful nature, you will surely come to love Hawaii from a different perspective.

２時間の乗馬でしたがあっという間でした。最初は馬をコントロールできるかと緊張していましたがそんな心配はまったくいりませんでした。というのも馬がとてもよく訓練されていてインストラクターの口笛で歩調を速めたりきちんと列になって歩いてくれて前の馬についていってくれます。コントロールする必要はまったくありませんでした。かえって馬のほうが変な指示を出されて迷惑だったでしょう。
慣れてくると周りを見る余裕が出てきてジュラシックパークなどの撮影されたところとシーンを教えてくれます。
基本的に英語ですが、日本人を見ると日本語で指示したほうがいいか聞いてくれます。言葉の心配は大丈夫でしょう。
素晴らしい自然に囲まれてきっとまた別の観点でハワイが好きになるでしょう。

乗馬体験(0.5～2時間)　2歳から参加OKの子供向けコースやサンセット、貸切ランチ付きなど選べるコースで広大な牧場を満喫！＜ガンストック牧場／現地集合＞

This is my fourth horseback riding location on Oahu. オアフ島では乗馬4箇所目で～す。

Reviewed by: ハワイでは必ず乗馬ファミリー

We are a family that always goes horseback riding in Hawaii. So far, we have ridden in one place on Kauai, three places on Oahu, one place on Molokai, one place on Maui, and one place on the Big Island. This year, we were planning to go horseback riding on Lanai, but we learned that Gunstock Ranch started offering rides last year. Considering the time saved by not having to travel to another island, we quickly booked an afternoon ride online.

After passing through Kahuku from the North Shore, we spotted the sign on the right after about five minutes! We turned right and climbed a bit up the mountain, arriving at a ranch that was completely untouched by tourism. Immediately, friendly dogs and sheep came to greet us. We made our way past the horses that were grazing in the back and found the guides, all of whom were women. After chatting, we learned that they were Mrs. Smith, the ranch owner, her daughter, and a part-time worker from Colorado who came to study at a university in Hawaii.

Although they didn't speak any Japanese, it felt like visiting a neighbor's house for check-in, creating a very homey atmosphere. As we started riding, it felt as if we had chartered the entire experience just for our family. We passed through the rodeo practice area and the training area for the horses, navigating through trees that made us feel like we were in an orchard. While riding, we picked and ate guava, and after climbing for an hour, we reached a viewpoint overlooking the North Shore, Kahuku, and the northeastern sea. We took commemorative photos and videos with this beautiful scenery as our backdrop, watching the sunset behind the mountains as it illuminated the southern part of Kahuku while chatting with our guide on the way back down to the ranch center in 30 minutes.

I wouldn't recommend this for first-time overseas riders, but for those who are tired of touristy horseback riding and can speak a little English, I think this is the best place on Oahu. We were treated to a beautiful sunset that made us forget we were even on Oahu.

ハワイでは必ず乗馬をするファミリー家族です。今までにカウアイ島で1箇所、オアフ島で3箇所、モロカイ島で1箇所、マウイ島で1箇所、ハワイ島で1箇所、今年はラナイ島で乗馬でもしようと計画していたところ、ここガンストック牧場で昨年からやり始めたとの情報を得、わざわざ離島まで行って乗馬することを考えればかなりの時間の節約と考えさっそくネットでアフタヌーン乗馬を予約。ノースからカフクを通り過ぎ約5分ぐらいで右手に看板発見！右折して山側にすこし登るとまったく観光化されていない牧場のたたずまい、早速人懐こいワンちゃんや羊がよって来て歓迎ムード、奥へ放牧されている馬さんたちをよけながら先に進みｶﾞｲﾄﾞさん？たちを発見、みなさん女性でお話をしたら牧場主のスミス婦人とそのお嬢さんとｺﾛﾗﾄﾞ州からハワイの大学へ来たアルバイトのお嬢さんの3人でした。まったく日本語は通じませんがまるでとなりの家へ遊びに行きチェックインも、アットホームな感じ、早速乗馬し我々家族だけのまるでチャーターしたみたいな一行は一路ロデオ練習場や馬を乗馬用になれさせる練習場を通り過ぎ山へ谷へ果樹園と思わせる木々の中を通り過ぎ馬上からグアバをもぎとり食べながら又山へ、1時間も登ると北はノースショアーからカフクそして北東の海海、この景色をバックに記念写真とビデオを撮り、山陰にかくれた太陽の夕日が先のカフクの南を照らすのを見ながらガイドとおしゃべりをしながら牧場中心地へ30分で下山。初めての海外乗馬の方にはお勧め出来ないが、観光乗馬に飽きた方、少し英語がお話できる方にはオアフ島では1番良いところと思います。オアフ島にいる事を忘れてしまいそうなきれいなサンセットを見させていただきました。

After arriving at the dive point, before I could even say "I'm scared" or "Wait," I was already falling one after another. I was the last one, but after counting to one, two, I found myself screaming "Yay!" while in the air, lol.

It was incredibly scary, but I became excited halfway through. I was screaming, but the force of the air coming in was so strong that I couldn't hear my own voice at all.

The sensation of falling is indescribable. It's the ultimate free-fall experience!

Once the parachute opened, I floated in the sky like a bird, slowly taking in the views of Oahu.

The Earth is truly round, and the ocean is blue—such obvious things were reaffirmed up in the sky.

In the distance, I could even see the humpback whales, a winter phenomenon in Hawaii, swimming around, which was absolutely amazing!

It's scary, but the refreshing feeling afterward is something you won't understand until you try it. Definitely give it a go~~~~!

I was quite indecisive about how to handle the photo shoot until the very end, but it was a bit too expensive... It would be great if it were a little cheaper.

ダイブポイントに到着してからは
怖いーとか待ってーとか言ってるまもなく、
次に次に落ちていきます。
私は最後でしたが、1,2とカウントした後は
気付いたらぎゃーーと叫びながら空にいましたｗ

むちゃくちゃ怖いけど、
途中から興奮状態になってましたね。
叫ぶんだけど、声を出す勢いより、空気が入ってくる勢いの方がすごくて
全然声が聞こえない。

あの落ちていく感覚は何とも言えません。
究極のフリーフォール体験！

パラシュートが開いてからは鳥のように空を舞いながら、
オアフ島をゆっくり眺める。

地球は本当に丸い
海は青い
なんて当たり前のことなんかを空の上で再確認。

遠くにはハワイの冬の風物詩 ザトウクジラの
泳ぐ姿なんかもみられて、本当に最高でした！

怖いけど終わった後のあの爽快感はやってみないとわかりませぬ。
是非おためしあれ~~~~ ！

写真撮影はどうするか最後までかなり迷ったんですが、
ちょっと高すぎました･･･
もうちょっと安くなると良いですね。

If you're going to fall, go bungee jumping.
If you want to fly, try skydiving.

Honestly, I had high expectations for the "1-2 minutes of free fall," but when it comes to diving from above the clouds, it feels too high to really experience the fall. You just spin a few times for a moment after jumping (are you swaying?), and then you play around with the strong winds. Once the parachute opens, you start to understand what it feels like to be a bird, and the refreshing sensation takes over.

The good weather probably helped, but the dedicated Cessna was also incredibly stable. Compared to a commercial airplane moving through the air currents, there was virtually no vertical shaking.

Actually, the day before, I heard from a scuba diving instructor about another company where 5-6 people have had incidents each year, so I felt relieved to have chosen this place.

Both before and after the jump, everyone was really relaxed and willing to take photos, which suited me perfectly.

As a keepsake, I bought a T-shirt that the instructor was wearing, but $18 felt a bit pricey... (well, I guess it's like a tip).

Mr. Tim is a bit cheeky, but he's a really great guy!

落ちるならバンジー。
空を飛ぶならスカイダイビング。

正直、「１~２分の自由落下」の期待は高かったんですが、
雲の上からのダイブとなると高すぎて落ちる実感沸かないし、
飛び降りた瞬間だけ数回転しながら落ちる（揺れてる？）程度で
あとは強風と戯れて、パラシュートが開けば
鳥の気持ちが理解出来るかなってな感じで

天気が良かったせいもあるでしょうが
専用セスナも実に安定してますね。

実は前日に何処とは言えませんが
他会社で年間５~６人が○○してる話を

ココにして良かったという安心感があったのも事実です

飛ぶ前も飛んだ後もの~んびりしてて、
