All Reviews for Outdoor Adventures

I had a faint hope that there might be Japanese-speaking staff, but as indicated in the prior information, it was English only. However, the staff used gestures and the few words they knew to provide guidance (though it was just a small part), so I encourage you not to hesitate and to give it a try.

There probably isn't another place in Japan where you can enjoy seven zip lines of this length, scale, and breathtaking views. If you go to Oahu, definitely check it out! Of course, there are risks involved, but I wholeheartedly recommend it.

もしかしたら日本語対応スタッフがいるだろう、という淡い期待を持っていましたが、事前の案内通り英語オンリーでした。ただ、スタッフもジェスチャーや知ってる単語を使いながらレクチャーしてくださるので（と、言ってもごくごく一部）、是非、尻込みせずチャレンジいただきたいな、と思います。
おそらく日本でこれだけの長さ、規模、絶景の７本のジップラインを楽しめる場所はありません。
オアフ島に行ったら是非！もちろんリスクは伴いますが、心からオススメします。

Booking through Veltra was easy, and simple. No issues with transportation or arriving at your destination. Everyone was so kind and knowledgeable it was absolutely beautiful and a must. I would 1000 percent do it again, but a different tour option at the ranch since they had so many choices. Either way I absolutely recommend booking with Veltra I shopped around and glad I chose them. UTV is a must. Veltra was even great as I had to switch hotels and pick/drop off and they made it so easy to do. Thanks!

We had a great time with this tour! You got to see gorgeous views from the diamond head and visited Manoa falls that felt like you were in the jungle. It was beautiful! The both tour guides were super nice.

I have been to Hawaii several times, but this is my first visit here. This place is famous as a filming location for Jurassic Park, LOST, and King Kong, and offers events where you can tour the filming sites by ATV, horseback riding, or bus. This time, I tried the ATV. It takes about an hour by bus from Waikiki, and the tour lasted around two hours, which was a lot of fun.

何回かハワイには行っていますが，ここを訪れるのは初めてです。
ここは，ジュラシックパークやLOST，そしてキングコングの撮影場所としても有名なところで，四輪バギーや乗馬，そしてバスなどで撮影場所を巡るイベントです。
今回は四輪バギーを利用してみました。
ワイキキからはバスで小一時間，ツアーは二時間ぐらいでとても楽しかったです。

During my first trip to Hawaii, I looked for activities and participated in a Cessna flying experience. You can make reservations via LINE from Japan, and the staff were very prompt and courteous in their responses. The flight included transportation from our hotel to the airport.

The staff were very kind and sensed the anxiety and tension that everyone feels about flying a Cessna. They first explained the principles of lift, operation methods, and instruments in a very helpful manner. During our session, two children took turns piloting, and we chose a plan that circled around Oahu, allowing us to get an overview of the entire island, including Honolulu.

We were able to see famous landmarks like Diamond Head, dolphins, whales, the high waves, people skydiving, former President Obama's childhood home, a wind farm, and aircraft carriers from above. I believe this is a unique experience that you can't find in other tours.

With the support of the pilot, we got to enjoy actual control of the aircraft during takeoff and turns. The pilot also assisted to minimize any turbulence. Since they provided support in Japanese, it felt reassuring, as if we were flying with a Japanese pilot in Japan.

During the flight, we could take photos and videos, and with a flight time of about two hours, we gathered plenty of data. The children were very satisfied, and it became a valuable experience for us.

The price may be higher than other activities, but the wonderful experience far exceeds that cost. The staff and pilots were very kind, and we felt their hospitality. Since it only takes about half a day, I highly recommend this for anyone wanting to fully enjoy their trip to Hawaii.

初めてのハワイ旅行でアクティビティを探していてセスナ操縦に参加しました。
日本からLINE予約できます、スタッフの方のご対応がとても早く丁寧でした。
現地滞在ホテルから空港まで送迎していただいてのフライトになります。
誰もが感じるセスナ操縦の不安・緊張を察してくれていて最初に揚力原理、操作方法、計器説明などをスタッフの方々がとても親切に教えてくれます。
私達の時は子供2人が交代操縦してオアフ島を一周するプランを選択しました。、ホノルルを含む島全体を俯瞰することができます。
有名なダイヤモンドヘッドをはじめイルカ・クジラや波の高い様子、スカイダイビングしている人達、オバマ前大統領の生家、風力発電所、空母戦艦などを上空から見ることができました。
これはピンポイントな他ツアーでは味わえない醍醐味だと思います。
操縦は離陸、旋回などをパイロットの方のサポートを受けながら実際の操縦桿で存分に味わえます。
揺れも少ないようパイロットの方がアシストしてくれます。
日本語対応いただけたので「日本内で日本人パイロットと乗っている」ような安心感がありました。
搭乗中は写真や動画が撮れます、2時間程度のフライトですので十分なデータになります。
子供達も大変満足で貴重な体験になりました。
お値段は他のアクティビティよりかかるかもしれませんが、それを遥かに上回る素晴らしい体験をする事ができます。
スタッフ、パイロットの方々がとても親切でホスピタリティを感じました。
半日程度ですのでせっかくのハワイ旅行だから思う存分楽しみたいと思われている方にはぜひオススメいたします。

We participated with our children aged 9, 11, and 13 at their request. Even my 9-year-old daughter, who is 120 cm tall, was able to ride alone. We received instructions on how to handle the reins and how to ride. Our guide, Kaz, accompanied us to the riding location and helped with everything from check-in to translation, which was a great help. He taught us how to ride during the transfer, and even though it was everyone's first time riding, we had a lot of fun. I can't speak any English, but having Kaz made me feel very secure. The staff at the riding location were not very impressive; they seemed to be new and a bit inexperienced. It felt like the tip was paid not for the staff, but for the smart horses. Since the tour was focused on horseback riding, we didn't plan for any exploration and just enjoyed a relaxed time.

子供からのリクエストで、9歳、11歳、13歳の子供と親子で参加しました。9歳120センチ女児でも１人で乗馬させてもらえます。手綱捌きから乗り方までレクチャーしてもらえます。送迎ガイドのカズさんが乗馬先に一緒に来てくれて、受付から通訳までしてくれたので大変助かりました。乗り方も送迎中に教えてくれて、全員初めての乗馬でしたがとても楽しめました。英語が全く話せないですが、カズさんがいてくれれば凄く安心です。乗馬先のスタッフはイマイチで、新人さんらしき人だったのか要領が悪い感じでした。チップはスタッフではなく、賢いお馬さんの為に払った感じです。乗馬目的のツアーだったので散策のプランを考えてなく、まったりと過ごしました。

I found a fulfilling tour that required a reservation and was difficult to access early in the morning for the Diamond Head hike, along with sightseeing on the East Coast and the North Shore, and booked it immediately.

Although I couldn't make it to the summit of Diamond Head in the early morning, I was able to see the sunrise along the way, and the view from the top was beautiful. I also visited Blowhole for the first time and coincidentally saw a whale jump. Our guide, Jonah, not only provided explanations but also took photos for us at various spots. He even took us to a place with a malasada food truck and Makapu'u Point, which wasn't on the original itinerary, making me feel like I got a great deal.

I've been to the North Shore a few times, but it was my first time at the lunch spot, Kahuku Sugar Mill, which was enjoyable. Overall, it was a packed day of hiking and sightseeing, and I highly recommend this tour. Although the time from early morning to evening was long, there were only two groups (four people total), so we were able to return to Waikiki 30 minutes early, right on schedule.

予約必要かつ早朝はアクセスしづらいダイヤモンドヘッド登山と、行ったことがない東海岸の観光、そしてノースショア。充実したツアーを見つけ、即予約しました。
早朝のダイヤモンドヘッドでは山頂には間に合いませんでしたが、途中で日の出を見ることができ、山頂でもきれいな景色が楽しめました。潮吹き岩も初めて訪れ、偶然クジラのジャンプも見られました。ガイドのジョナさんは説明はもちろん、行く先々で写真も撮って下さり、また途中予定にはないマラサダのフードトラックのある場所やマカプウ岬も寄ってくれ、得した気分になりました。ノースショアは何度か行ったことがありますが、ランチ場所のカフクシュガーミルは初めてだったので楽しかったです。とにかく1日でハイキングと観光てんこ盛りでとても充実したおすすツアーです。早朝から夕方まで時間は長いのですが、私達含めて2組（計4人）だったので、集合時間もぴったりで30分も早くワイキキに戻ることができました。

I was scared at first, but once I dove in, I was amazed by the beauty of the ocean and the unknown world! It was an incredible experience!

怖さがありましたが、いざダイブすると、海のキレイさに感動し、未知の世界が！　貴重な体験をすることができてサイコーでした！

I highly recommend it! You can tour the filming locations of Jurassic Park by buggy. We participated as a pair this time, and there were no other customers in the buggy, so we were able to enjoy it just the two of us while occasionally taking turns driving!

とてもおすすめです！
ジュラシックパークのロケ地をバギーで巡ることができます。
今回2人で参加しましたが、バギーに他のお客さんが乗ることはなく、2人だけでたまに運転を交代しながら楽しむことができました！

I previously went horseback riding for an hour at Kualoa Ranch, but I enjoyed it so much that this time I signed up for the two-hour course. My butt and the tops of my legs did get sore, but I definitely recommend the two-hour course! You can ride to places you can't reach in the one-hour course, such as areas with cows, spots with beautiful ocean views, and locations that were used for movie filming.

以前にクアロアランチで1時間の乗馬をしましたが、気に入りすぎてしまい今回は2時間コースを申し込みました。お尻と足の付け根は痛くなりますが、やはり2時間コースおすすめです！1時間コースではいかない、牛たちがいる所や海がきれいに見える所や、映画のロケ地になった場所も乗馬できます。

The flight lesson was an invaluable experience that far exceeded my expectations, and I was completely absorbed in it. At the same time, I learned about the difficulty of flying straight through the air. I was impressed by Captain Nomura's skills, experience, and the number of flights he has completed. Thank you for your support.
I want to fly in the sky again.

フライトレッスンは､創造の域を遥かに超えた貴重な体験で夢中になりました｡
と同時に､空間を真っ直ぐ飛ぶことの難しさを学習しました。
野村機長のスキルや経験／場数に感動､お世話になりました｡
I want to Fly in the Sky again.

I was able to enjoy a fulfilling sightseeing experience as we visited each destination at a good pace! The guide provided valuable knowledge about the places we were passing while driving. The guide also took photos at each destination, creating wonderful memories. The most impressive moment was at the blowhole, where I was very lucky to see a whale jumping in the distance.

それぞれの目的地をテンポよく巡って充実した観光ができました！ガイドさんが運転しながら今通っている場所の知識を教えてくれるのでためになります。ガイドさんが各目的地で写真を撮ってくださり思い出になります。巡った中で一番印象的だったのは潮吹き岩で遠くにクジラがジャンプする姿を見ることができたことでとてもラッキーでした。

I was a bit anxious since it was an English-speaking driver. It seemed like the meeting point was different, and even after 10 minutes, the driver hadn't arrived. When I tried to contact them, the line was busy. Just when I was starting to think they might not come, the driver called my name loudly, and I was able to get on safely. During the ride, I couldn't understand the announcements at all, and since we were the only Japanese people, I felt a bit isolated, haha. We also received two bottles of mineral water for the round trip! Since it was just a plan to climb, I didn't feel rushed and was able to fully enjoy the scenery and nature. However, I later found out that taking the bus would have been significantly cheaper, which was a good lesson learned.

英語ドライバーという事だったので不安でした。
待ち合わせ場所が違っていたようで10分過ぎても来ず、連絡しても通話中。行けないかもと思っていたらドライバーさんが大きな声で名前を呼んでくれて無事に乗れました。移動中の案内は全くわからず翻訳機能も使えず私たちだけ日本人だったので少し疎外感笑。
ミネラルウォーターも行き帰りで2本いただきました！
登るだけのプランだったので焦ることもなく景色も自然も存分に堪能出来ました。
ただ、バスで行ってたらゼロ一桁安かったと後から知りいい勉強になりました。

We had a great time as a family of four with our two elementary school children. Both my husband and I took turns driving. If you have a driver's license, it's definitely more fun to drive. I was worried about whether my feet would reach the pedals since I'm 148 cm tall, but as long as I pulled the seatbelt tight and sat a bit lower in the seat, it was totally fine. (I think those of us who are shorter are used to making adjustments like that.)

It would be more enjoyable if you can speak English, as you can communicate with the guide. If you can't understand anything at all, it might be good to let them know or to convey that through your demeanor. During the first break, we all introduced ourselves as a group and were asked where we were from and what our travel goals were. I managed to respond with some words that didn't quite form sentences, but they understood me, although it was a bit nerve-wracking. (laughs)

小学生の子供2人と家族4人で楽しめました。
夫婦ともにドライバーで交代して運転。免許があるなら運転もしたほうが楽しいです。私は身長148cmのため足が届くか心配でしたが、シートベルトをしっかり引っ張り出してシートに浅めに腰掛ければ全然大丈夫でした。(そこらへんの工夫は低身長さんなら色々慣れている範囲内かと思います)
英語は話せた方がガイドさんと話せてより楽しめそうです。聞き取りも全くできない場合は、その旨お伝えしておくか雰囲気出しておくと良いかもしれません。最初の休憩でグループ全体で自己紹介がはじまり、どこから来たかと旅の目的を聞かれました。文章にならない単語でなんとか答えて理解いただけましたが少しドキドキしました。笑

Very fun experience being able to drive the UTV through kualoa ranch! The views were very refreshing to see! Taisha and Q kept the experience full of fun and energy while educating us about the land and culture.

It's powerful and definitely something you should do if you're in Hawaii! Riding around in a buggy is an extraordinary experience, and I think it allows you to enjoy the atmosphere even more.

迫力があって、絶対ハワイにあったら行くべき！バギーで周るってのが非日常的だし、より一層雰囲気を味わえると思う。

The guide takes photos for you during breaks at various points. Since it's electric, going uphill was a breeze. I was moved when I saw cows while going down the slope. The scenery at Kualoa is beautiful and can't be fully captured in photos. You should definitely experience it at least once!

所々で休憩を挟みガイドのかたが写真も撮ってくれます。
電動なので、上り坂も楽々でした。
坂道を下りながら牛が見えた時は感動しました。クアロアは景色が美しく写真では伝えきれません。ぜひ一度体験してください！

We went horseback riding as a family of three. It was our first time riding in Hawaii, and I was a bit nervous at first, but the local guide was very friendly and kind. We even found some unexpected common interests and hit it off, becoming friends. The long hours of horseback riding were very valuable, as it's not something we can experience much in Japan, so it was a really great experience and we had a lot of fun!

家族3人で乗馬をしました。ハワイでの乗馬は初めてで最初は少し緊張しましたが、現地のガイドの方がとても気さくで優しく、意外な共通点もあったりして、意気投合しお友達になりました。
長時間の乗馬は、とても貴重で日本ではあまり経験出来ないので、とっても良い経験ができて楽しかったです！

I made the reservation based on the recommendation of Mr. Tamura from Bon Voyage Kobe, and thanks to the prior briefing, the sightseeing went smoothly. The local staff's response was a bit lacking as the acceptance situation changed multiple times before we started, but Mr. Tamura from Bon Voyage Kobe coordinated everything, so I was able to start with peace of mind. The helicopter tour without doors was amazing!

ボン・ヴォヤージュ神戸の田村氏に勧められての予約でしたが事前にレクチャーしてくれたこともありスムーズに観光できました。受入れ状態が二転三転してスタートするまでの現地スタッフの対応はイマイチでしたがそこもボン・ヴォヤージュ神戸の田村氏が取りまとめてくれたので安心してスタート出来ました　ドアなしのヘリでの遊覧は最高です

We used our phone flashlights on the way up, it was quite early but still worth it as it is a great way to start the morning.

The Kualoa grounds are breath taking, and the fun added in with the atv was a perfect pair.

My wife was worried about the two-hour horseback riding, but she said it was great afterward. It was my first time riding as well, and the staff's support was excellent, making it enjoyable. During the ride, the horse pooped and peed quite dramatically, and we walked among free-range cows, which was an experience you can't have in Japan.

2時間の乗馬を心配していた妻が、乗馬後良かったとの事。小生も初めての乗馬であったが、スタッフのフォローも良く楽しめた。乗馬途中お馬さんがうんこ💩、おしっこを豪快にしたり、放し飼いの牛の間を歩いたりと日本では出来ない経験でした。

After arriving from Waikiki, I received explanations about luggage and lockers from the Japanese staff and headed to the reception for each activity. The two-hour horseback riding was very fulfilling, as I could see the ocean and passed very close to a herd of cattle. The gentle ups and downs were quite surprising from atop the horse.

ワイキキから到着後、日本人スタッフの方から手荷物やロッカーなどの説明を受け、各アクティビティの受付に向かいました。2時間の乗馬は海が見えたり、牛の群れのすぐ近くを通ったり、軽いアップダウンも馬の上からだと結構びっくりしたり、とても充実しました。

There were some things I didn't quite understand in English, but they kindly explained everything in an easy-to-understand way, and the activities themselves were enjoyable and memorable. Thank you! 😊

英語でちょっと理解できないこともありますが、親切にわかりやすく話しもして頂き、アクティビティ自体も楽しく心に残ったアクティビティでした。
ありがとうございました😊

I enjoyed a 2-hour horseback riding tour with a group of about five Japanese people and a female staff member. The staff was very cheerful and provided advice in simple Japanese. Unfortunately, it rained the entire time, so we couldn't see the magnificent scenery very well. I definitely want to experience it again when I visit Oahu.

5人ほどの日本人だけのグループで、女性スタッフの方と一緒に2時間の乗馬ツアーを楽しみました。スタッフの方はとても明るく、簡単な日本語も交えてアドバイスをしてくれました。残念だったのは2時間ずっと雨天で雄大な景色があまり見えなかったこと。オアフ島に行ったらぜひまた体験に行きたいです。

A packed itinerary with Dole Plantation, horseback riding, and Haleiwa.

The driver was very kind and shared various stories about Hawaii to keep us entertained during the ride.

The horseback riding staff only spoke English, but the driver, who had experience with horses, provided a thorough explanation beforehand, so I was able to enjoy it without any worries.

It was a pleasant time swaying on a smart polo horse while looking at the magnificent ocean of the North Shore.

Haleiwa is larger than I expected, so it might be a good idea to decide in advance where to go.

ドールプランテーション→乗馬→ハレイワと盛りだくさんのコース。

ドライバーさんもとても親切で道中飽きないようにハワイのさまざまなお話をしてくださいました。

乗馬は英語のみのスタッフですが、馬を飼っていたこともあるドライバーさんが事前に丁寧に説明してくださっていたので、不安なく楽しめました。

ノースショアの壮大な海を見ながら賢いポロ経験の馬に揺られて気持ちの良い時間でした。

ハレイワの町は思ったより広いのでどこに行くか事前に決めておくといいかも。

Waking up early was tough, but it was definitely worth it! At Diamond Head, they lend you hand lights, so you don't need to bring anything. The view from the top was amazing! I also got to see many beautiful sights at the beach and in nature. Jonah shared the scenery, delicious restaurants, and information about Hawaii while driving, making the journey very enjoyable. Haleiwa Town on the North Shore was a great place for shopping at famous stores like Patagonia and enjoying acai bowls, which left me very satisfied! The nuts from the macadamia nut farm were delicious, and before I knew it, I had bought a lot of souvenirs (laughs). At the coffee farm I was aiming for, there were so many coffee beans to choose from that time flew by!

I highly recommend joining the tour for anyone who is considering it!

朝早くから大変ですが早起きしたかいがありました！
ダイヤモンドヘッドではハンドライトも貸してもらえるため必要なものは何もありません。
頂上からの景色は最高でした！
そのほかにもビーチや自然のなかで素敵な景色をたくさん見られました。
ジョナさんが運転中にも見える景色や美味しいお店、ハワイのことを紹介してくれる為、移動中もとても楽しめました。
ノースショアのハレイワタウンはpatagoniaなどの有名店でのショッピングやアサイーボウルも食べられ、大満足でした！
マカダミアナッツ農園のナッツもおいしく、気づけばお土産をたくさん買っていました(笑)
お目当てのコーヒー農園では、たくさんのコーヒー豆があり、よりどりみどりで時間が過ぎるのがあっという間でした！

ツアーに参加するか迷っている人はぜひ参加をオススメします！

Everyone was very friendly, and we easily overcame the language barrier! The transportation with pick-up service was reassuring. The scenery was incredibly beautiful and it was the best!

とてもフレンドリーで言語の壁もなんなく乗り越えられました！
送迎付きで交通手段は安心。
景色もすごく綺麗で最高でした！

2hour Raptor tour, great experience for our group

I enjoyed the speed of the buggy, felt the Hawaiian breeze, and fully experienced the mountains, ocean, and nature. It was also fun to see the filming locations. The instructor was great at boosting the mood. The shuttle bus was comfortable, too, as it was a Mercedes-Benz.

バギーのスピード感、ハワイの風を感じて、山、海と大自然を満喫できました。
ロケ地を見るのも楽しかったです。
インストラクターも盛り上げてくれて気分が上がります。
送迎バスもベンツで快適でした。
