The tour driver was great! He got us there and through the gate in a timely manner. However, if you are looking for serenity or a peaceful hike, you have come to the wrong place. It was so crowded it was hard to enjoy. Had some younger individuals that thought we might all enjoy their music blaring.
This site would benefit from a timed entry system.

It's far, but definitely worth it!
We traveled in a comfortable large bus with spacious seats.
The roads were congested, but since we climbed Diamond Head and visited the KCC Farmers' Market in the morning, it was nice to be able to sleep comfortably on the bus.
As we got closer, the color of the sea and the mountain scenery changed, allowing us to enjoy a mystical view that is different from the urban Waikiki.
All explanations were in English.
We had free time until the tour started, and we enjoyed a buffet with curry, meat, and salad. There was also a shop. There were plenty of things to see and do freely, so we had more than enough time to pass.
A paper with the meeting time and return time was distributed to each person, so as long as you keep it until the end, you can feel at ease. Even if you can't speak English, you can show the paper to get directions to the meeting place.
One issue was that the locker had a credit card error, didn't give change, and there were no staff nearby.
In the end, I was able to exchange money at the counter where I bought the tour ticket. Thanks to that trouble, I became friends with a newlywed Japanese couple participating in the same tour, so it turned out well. Unexpected events are part of traveling.
The horses are quite tall, which might be scary for beginners, but they are very gentle and listen carefully to instructions.
Basically, even without commands, they will move on their own when the horse in front starts to go, but if you keep making physical contact, they will look back as if to ask, "Is it okay to go?" and wait for a signal. So cute and smart! After a tough path, I thanked them many times.
There was no fast walking, so it was a leisurely stroll, but there were bumpy paths with ups and downs.
The guide was explaining something, but it was far away and in English, so I couldn't catch what they were saying at all. I want to improve my English skills and try again someday.
Calves came close, and the impressive mountains and breathtaking sea were just amazing! Since we were lined up in a row, there was hardly any interaction with other participants, which was comfortable for me as someone who joined alone. If you want to socialize with everyone, a bus tour or other activities might be good. Riding was a great choice for a unique experience!
Be prepared to get a little dirty or wet, so wearing comfortable clothes and shoes is important.
It drizzled, but there was no rainbow.
I wanted to see a Hawaiian rainbow!
I bought photos! I also purchased a T-shirt and a shop bag. They were cute, inexpensive, and of good quality. I wish I had bought more of the green and black bags hanging on the wall at the souvenir shop's register!
遠いけど行く価値あり!
快適なゆったりシートの大型バスで移動。
道は混んでたけど、朝からダイヤモンドヘッド登ってKCCファーマーズも回ったので バスで快適に眠れて助かりました。
近づくにつれて、海の色 山の風景が変わっていき、都会なワイキキとは違う 神秘的な絶景を楽しめます。
説明は全て英語。
ツアー時間までは自由時間で、ビュッフェでカレーやお肉、サラダを食べれました。売店もあります。他にも色々自由に見て回れるので、時間は充分に潰せます。
集合時間や帰りの時間の書いた紙を1人ずつ配られるので、最後まで無くさず持っていたら安心です。英語話せなくても紙を見せれば集合場所を教えてくれます。
1つ困ったのはロッカーがクレジットカードエラー&お釣が出ない&近くにスタッフがいない。
結局 ツアーチケットを買うカウンターで両替してもらえました。そのトラブルのおかげで同じツアーに参加する日本人の新婚さんと仲良くなれたので、結果オーライ。旅にハプニングはつきものです。

ガイドさんがなにやら説明してますが、遠いし英語だし何言ってるか全く聞き取れなかったから、英語力をあげてまたいつか再チャレンジしたいな。
子牛が近づいて来たり、圧巻の山、絶景の海、
めっちゃ気持ち~!1列に並んでるので 他の参加者たちとの交流はほぼなく、1人で参加した身としては快適でした。みんなでわぃわぃしたいのであればバスツアーとか他のアクティビティもいいかも。なかなか出来ない経験としては乗馬で大正解でした♪

Considering the transportation, costs, and time spent in Hawaii, I honestly hesitated before making the reservation. However, my experience was truly amazing, and I was able to enjoy a luxurious time in Hawaii! The scenery and interaction with the horses were unique, and I felt genuinely healed while riding and feeling the warmth of the horses (*^^*).
We debated on transportation, but we decided to rent a car. We were able to stop by shops in Haleiwa and enjoy garlic shrimp from a food truck (it was emotional to have it again after 15 years!) and also visited the Dole Plantation, making for a very fulfilling day that included horseback riding. The instructor spoke entirely in English, but explained things clearly with gestures. The horses were very well-behaved, and we enjoyed a relaxed ride while only lightly holding the reins (^^).
The entrance by car was a bit tricky to find, but once you see the arena, slow down a bit, and you'll find the gate. After entering through the first large gate, you'll soon see the horses. We changed into shoes in the car (my husband wore sneakers, while my daughter and I wore compact flat shoes with belts to avoid bulky luggage) and prepared by signing in and borrowing helmets and storage for our belongings. The storage was a pocket-style that could be placed on the horse's back, fitting a phone, camera, and even a small water bottle. We also got to take photos by the beach, which made for wonderful memories! (The instructor called out at just the right moments.)
We wore long pants, but there was no worry about getting dirty while riding, so we could go shopping afterward. (Since there was a bit of sand blowing, it might be a good idea to bring a change of clothes if you're concerned.) The daytime was fantastic, but I imagine the sunset would offer even more beautiful scenery, so I hope to experience it again!
The theme of this trip was to experience things that can only be done in Hawaii, and this horseback riding experience was perfect for that, creating the best memories for our family! Thank you so much to the wonderful instructor and the adorable horses ( ´ ▽ ` ) mahalo!
現地までの移動やお値段、ハワイでの滞在時間を考えた際、申し込みまで正直悩みました。しかし実際体験できての感想は、本当に贅沢なハワイ時間を過ごすことができて最高でした!!まさしくここでしか経験できない景色とお馬達との触れ合い、乗せてもらってお馬さんの温もりを感じながら本当に癒されました(*^^*)
移動手段で悩みましたが私達はレンタカーで向かい、ハレイワのお店やワゴンのガーリックシュリンプ(15年振りに食べれてそれも感動でした!)やドールプランテーションにも立ち寄れたので乗馬を含めとても充実した1日になりました。
先生はオール英語ではありますが、ジェスチャーなども交えながら分かりやすく説明してくれます。先生についていく感じで本当にお利口なお馬さん達でこちらは手綱を軽く持つ程度でゆったり乗馬を楽しめました(^^)
車での入り口が少し分かりづらいですが競技場がみえてきたら少しゆっくり走行していくとゲートがあり1つ目の大きなゲートの次のところを入っていくとすぐお馬達がみえる感じです。車で靴をシューズ(主人はスニーカー、私と娘は荷物がかさばらないよう少しコンパクトになるベルト付きのフラットシューズ)に履き替え、乗る前にサイン、ヘルメットと荷物入れを借りて準備します。荷物入れはお馬さんの背中に置かせてもらえるポケット式のもので携帯やカメラ、小さいものであれば水筒も入るサイズです。途中浜辺のところで写真も撮ってもらえて最高の記念になりました!!(程よいタイミングで先生が声を掛けてくれます)
服装は長ズボンになりますが乗った際に汚れてしまうようなことはなくそのまま買い物などできました。(若干砂が舞うので気になる方は着替えを持参されるといいかもです)
日中も最高でしたがサンセットの時間はさらにいい風景なのだろうと思うので、また体験できたらと思いました!
ハワイでしか体験できないことをが今回の旅行のテーマだったので、こちらでの乗馬体験はまさしくそれにぴったりで、家族の最高の思い出になりました!!
素敵な先生、そして可愛いお馬さん達、本当にありがとうございました( ´ ▽ ` )mahalo!

You can enjoy the breathtaking views of Kualoa while riding a horse.
The horse knows the route well, so you basically don’t have to do much to keep moving forward.
The local staff provides explanations, but I couldn’t understand what they were saying in English; however, during that time, you can enjoy the stunning scenery.
The views had a power that photos just can't capture.
You can also have photos taken, so I was satisfied.

It was the best of the best experience for skydiving! The scenery and location were good, the staff were kind, and I was able to capture it in photos and videos.

It's a bit selfish, but more than anything, I'm glad I had such an amazing experience, so I highly recommend it, and I strongly want to try skydiving in another location!!!

Duration:
Including travel time, you can enjoy about 90 minutes of fishing at a beautiful offshore point overlooking Diamond Head, which takes approximately 3 hours to reach! It was just the right length—not too long, not too short.
Catch:
My wife and I tried fishing together, and we caught four large butterflyfish, close to 30 centimeters, with strong pulls! Unlike the butterflyfish in Japan, these were colorful with pink tails and made a "boo boo" sound. Some people didn’t catch anything at all, but it’s necessary to tweak your fishing technique a bit. The bait is squid, but it’s cut quite roughly, so I recommend tearing it into smaller pieces to use.
Staff Response:
The staff provided thorough instructions on how to handle the fishing rods. They quickly addressed issues like tangled lines with neighboring guests and helped remove caught fish from the hooks. When my wife got seasick, they were always attentive and offered her ginger candy.
Wonderful Service:
You can bring your own food and drinks, including alcohol. Water and light juice are available for free from tanks on board. The caught fish are immediately prepared for you. By the time we returned to port, we all enjoyed the butterflyfish sautéed with delicious seasonings in a large frying pan. As a side note, my wife had recovered from her seasickness by then and was even asking for seconds. (laughs)
所要時間:
およそ3時間でダイヤモンドヘッドを望む美しい沖合いポイントまで移動時間を含めると実質90分ほど船釣りを楽しめます!長過ぎず、短すぎず、程良かったです。
釣果:
妻と二人でトライしましたが引きが強くて30センチ近くの大きなカワハギが4匹釣れました!
日本のカワハギと異なり、カラフルでピンクの尾をしていて、ブーブーと鳴いておりました。
中には全く釣れない人たちもいましたが、釣り方を少し工夫する必要があります。餌はイカですがかなりざっくりカットされているので、少し小さくちぎって、つけるのがお勧めです。
スタッフ対応:
丁寧に釣り竿の扱い方などをレクチャー頂けます。また隣の客と糸が絡まったり、釣れた魚を針から外したりする際に迅速に対応してくださります。妻が船酔いでダウンした際は常に気をかけて下さり、ジンジャーの飴を渡してくれました。
素敵なサービス:
アルコールを含む飲食物を持ち込めます。
船内に水、薄いジュースがタンクから無料で頂けます。釣れた魚は直ぐに捌いて頂けます。帰港までには大きなフライパンで香ばしい調味料と一緒に炒められたカワハギを乗員全員で美味しく頂きました。蛇足ですが、妻はこの頃には船酔いから回復しており、おかわりしてました。笑

Mr. McCartney, who was very friendly, entertained us greatly. Watching the stars through a high-performance telescope while receiving a lecture was more romantic and mysterious than I had imagined. I was very moved.
The rings of Saturn were clearly visible and looked so cute. The moon was so large that it couldn't fit in the telescope, and the craters were clearly visible, which was very surprising. I was amazed to see so many stars in the Milky Way that I didn't realize were there. I was able to see many stars that are not visible to the naked eye!
The next day, I was able to slowly enjoy the Hawaiian night sky with my child, recalling what I learned during the stargazing event.
I received photos of the stars captured through the telescope via email. It became a wonderful memory.
気さくなマッカートニーさんがとても楽しませてくれました。レクチャーをうけながら高性能望遠鏡で星を眺めるのは想像以上にロマンチックで神秘的。とても感動しました。
土星のリングもくっきり見えてとてもかわいいかったです。月も望遠鏡に収まりきらないほど大きくクレーターもはっきり映っていてとても驚きました。
ミルキーウェイもこんなにたくさん星が集まっているのかとびっくりしました。肉眼では見えない星たちもたくさん見ることができました!

Thanks to Susumu's witty guidance, I was able to participate in a fun and safe manner. It's also appreciated that the roads have been improved compared to a few years ago. The water volume at Manua Falls was low, which was disappointing, but the view from Tantalus Lookout was breathtaking. I also enjoyed a delicious acai bowl for lunch. By adding an event that allows for interaction with nature, it became a memorable trip, not just a city walk. However, it's important to be prepared as weather can have an impact.
ススムさんの軽妙なガイドで、楽しくかつ安全に参加出来た。数年前と比べ道が整備されていることも有難い。マヌア滝は水量が少なく残念だったが、タンタラス丘からの眺めは圧巻。昼食のアサイーボウルも美味しくいただいた。街歩きだけでなく、自然と触れるイベントを加えたことで、思い出に残る旅となった。ただ、天候に影響されることがあるので、準備しておくことが必要。

I was picked up three hours before the participation time at the Aloha Landing Bus stop at Sheraton Waikiki Hotel (this may vary by person).
At the Aloha Landing Bus stop, the bus arrived just in time for departure, which might cause anxiety for those used to Japanese standards, but let's wait without rushing.
Before boarding, there was a prior instruction to present the VELTRA voucher, but in reality, you need to show your passport to the person managing the bus passengers (who is different from the driver) for check-in. If you show the voucher to that person, you might get yelled at with "Passport!!" in frustration, so be sure to bring your passport! There was someone who didn't have their passport and had a bit of a hassle before boarding.
It takes about an hour to get to Kualoa Ranch, and you arrive in no time.
Once at the ranch, there is a Japanese-speaking guide who hands out a paper with the experience time and return bus schedule for each person. They also explain the locations of the activities at that time. With this paper, you can easily communicate without any waste when participating in activities or boarding the return bus, so make sure not to lose it! After the explanation, you have free time until your participation time, so you can browse the shop, eat, or pet the horses.
The check-in for the UTV Raptor starts 15 minutes before the scheduled time, and you will need to show your driver's license at that time. After check-in, you will watch an instructional video before driving, but if you don’t specify, you will watch the video in English. If you're not confident in English, make sure to clearly say "Japanese"! There is also a Japanese version of the instructional video available.
The four-wheeled buggy has no windows on all sides, so the dust is incredible (laughs). You will get dirtier than you can imagine, so it's best to participate in clothes you don't mind throwing away and shoes or bags that can get dirty!
Also, since your face will get completely black from the dust, I think it's a good idea to prepare a mask or bandana to cover your face. Afterward, my mouth felt gritty, which was quite a hassle^^ I also recommend bringing a change of clothes for the return trip!
The four-wheeled buggy is not too difficult to drive aside from the bumps and ups and downs (of course, there are no intersections or traffic lights), so I think those who drive regularly will have no problem. It was my first experience with a left-hand drive, but it was totally fine.
The scenery was amazing, with the wind blowing through, and it was so much fun to race through the landscapes I saw in Jurassic Park! Above all, the tour guides were friendly and playful, making for a wonderful time.
I definitely want to participate again!
シェラトン・ワイキキ・ホテルのアロハランディングバス乗り場で参加時間の3時間前にピックアップされました。(人によって異なります)
アロハランディングバス乗り場では、出発時間ギリギリにバスが到着したので、日本の感覚だと不安になると思いますが、焦らずに待っていましょう。
乗車する前にVELTRAのバウチャーを提示するように事前指示がありましたが、実際はバスの乗客管理する人(運転手とは別)にパスポートを見せて受付となります。
その人にバウチャーを見せるとイライラされながら「パスポート!!」と怒鳴られる事になるので、忘れずにパスポートを持って行きましょう!笑
パスポートを持参されてなくて乗車前に少し揉めている人がいました。
クアロア牧場までは約1時間、あっという間に到着します。
牧場に着いてからは日本語のガイドさんがおり、ひとりひとりに体験時間や帰りのバスの時間等が書かれている紙が渡されます。その際にアクティビティの場所などの説明もあります。
この紙があれば、アクティビティに参加する際や、帰りのバスに乗る際に見せるだけでお互いに無駄の無く意思疎通が出来て、とても便利なので無くさないようにしましょう!
説明の後は各々の参加時間までフリーなので、ショップを見たり、ご飯を食べたり、馬を撫でたりして過ごします。
UTV Raptor の受け付けは開始時間の15分から、その際に運転免許証を見せます。
受付後の運転前に説明動画を観るのですが、何も伝えないと英語の説明動画を観ることになります。
英語が不安な方ははっきり「Japanese」と伝えましょう!日本語の説明動画もあります。
四輪バギーは全方向窓がないので、とにかく土埃が
すごい(笑)
想像の50倍汚れたので、棄てても良い服、汚れても良い靴や鞄などで参加された方が良いです!
また、土埃で顔が真っ黒になるので、運動用の顔を覆い隠すマスクやバンダナ等を用意された方が良いと思います。
終わった後には口の中もジャリジャリして大変でした^^
帰りの事も考えて着替えを持ってくるのもおすすめします!
四輪バギーは凸凹やアップダウンが多い以外はそんなに難しい道ではないので(当然ですが交差点も信号もない)
日頃、運転されている方は問題なく運転できると思います。
左ハンドル初体験でしたが、全然問題ありませんでした。
景色も最高で、風が吹き抜けて、ジュラシックパークで観た景色を疾走するのはとても楽しかったです!何よりツアーガイドさんが皆さん気さくでお茶目でより素晴らしい時間を過ごすことができました。

The pickup location for the bus on the way there was hard to find. (There were many people from other tours, and we couldn't tell what our bus looked like.)
As for the horseback riding, we could hear the sound of the waves and got splashed by the sea spray, and the wind felt pleasant. The horse was calm and occasionally stopped to graze, which was enjoyable as well. Riding along the coast, something we can't do in Japan, was a valuable experience.
In Haleiwa Town, we only had time for lunch, and it would have been nice to have a little more time to relax.

During the trekking, our guide Daisuke provided various explanations, which was very helpful. Without a guide, I think the experience would have been less enjoyable. It seems there has been little rainfall recently, so unfortunately, the waterfall had a lower water volume, but trekking through the jungle was very enjoyable.
The path was quite rocky and muddy, making it difficult to walk, so I recommend borrowing a walking stick. Insect repellent spray was also available for us to use.
ホノルルの熱帯雨林の道を歩いてマノアの滝に到着、その後広々としたタンタラスの丘で美味しいサンドイッチ(アサイーボウル)を楽しむツアーです。ジャングルの中と丘からの眺めとその対比もなかなか面白かったです。
トレッキング中はガイドのだいすけさんが色々な説明をしてくれてとても良かったです。ガイドさん無しだと歩いて終わりで楽しさもそこそこだったと思います。最近の雨量が少なかったそうで滝は残念ながら水量が少なめでしたが、ジャングルの中のトレッキングはとても楽しめました。
道が結構ゴツゴツしていてぬかるみも多く歩きにくいので、ステッキを貸してもらうことをお勧めします。虫除けスプレーも貸してもらえました。

The shuttle driver was polite, and especially the local staff were very courteous, responding kindly even without speaking English, using gestures to communicate effectively.
送迎のドライバーも丁寧でしたし、特に現地のスタッフがすごく丁寧で英語が喋れなくても身振りで丁寧に対応してくれました。

I participated because my daughter invited me! I had some anxiety about riding the free-range horses, but before we mounted, there was a video explanation in Japanese covering the precautions. We were paired up in groups of six, with two instructors who occasionally checked in on us, and they spoke a bit of Japanese! The horse I rode seemed to be a veteran that suited me well; it was very cautious, allowing me to ride comfortably. It was a very enjoyable two hours.
娘に誘われての参加でした! 放し飼いの馬に乗ることに、不安もありましたが、乗る前には、日本語での注意点など、ビデオ説明もありました。 2人ペアで、6人の、グループに、2人インストラクターの方が付き、体験中は、時折、声を掛けて下さり、それも片言ですが日本語で! わたしが乗ったお馬さんは、わたしに合ったベテランのお馬だったようで、とても慎重で、安心して乗る事が出来、とても楽しめた2時間でした。

The staff were friendly, and they took several photos for us. Everything was in English, so I thought I should have brought a translation device since I didn't understand English, but the scenery was very beautiful. For some reason, we couldn't go to Jurassic World, but I'm glad we were able to go on our honeymoon.
フレンドリーなスタッフさんで、写真も何枚か取ってもらえました。全部英語なので、英語がわからなかったので、翻訳機持っていけばよかったと思いましたが、景色がとてもきれいでした。ジュラシックワールドはなぜか行けなかったのですが、ハネムーンで行けてよかったです。

I was a bit anxious about the explanations in English, but I was able to understand through the atmosphere. The electric bicycle takes a little getting used to, but it's comfortable.
英語での解説に不安がありましたが、雰囲気で理解することができました。電動自転車は慣れるまでに少し苦労しますが快適です。

The assisted mountain bike is amazing! You can easily climb hills while sitting down. The exhilaration of racing through nature on a mountain bike is exceptional. Additionally, at the photo spots, you have a reasonable amount of time to take breaks. The bike used is the Trek Rail, available in three sizes: S, M, and L.
アシスト付きマウンテンバイクはアシストがスゴイ!坂道も座ったままで楽々登ります。
大自然の中をマウンテンバイクで駆け抜ける爽快さは格別。また、フォトスポットでは、適度な時間を取ってくれて適度に休憩も取れます。
使用する自転車は、Trek Railで大きさはS.M.Lの3種類あります。

There was no guide who could speak Japanese, and basic English communication skills were necessary, but even though I couldn't speak any English at all, they kindly explained things while using a language translation app on their phone and actively engaged in communication, which made it really enjoyable for me. That said, it's definitely true that being able to speak English would enhance the experience even more.
I recommend participating in clothes that you wouldn't mind throwing away. The red dirt stains won't come out even after washing. I participated in a white shirt that I planned to discard, and after the event, it turned into a reddish-brown shirt. (It also got soaked in the rain...)
The tour runs on really bumpy roads from a certain point, so it's better for people with neck or back issues to skip it. (I think there was something in the consent form before participation that mentioned self-responsibility.)
I'm not sure if it was because the weather was rainy when we participated, but the goggles provided had gaps where water could get in, and they became hard to see through due to dirt, while we were going at quite a speed (about 20 km/h), making it difficult to keep up. Especially for those with contact lenses, it's hard to keep your eyes open. (I was one of them.)
There are no shower rooms, just a place to wash your face and hands, and if you want to take a shower, you'll need to go to a nearby beach.
日本語を話せるガイドがおらず、基本的な英語でのコミュニケーション能力が必要とありましたが、全く英語が出来ない自分にも嫌な顔せず、携帯で言語変換しながら優しく説明してくれたり、コミュニケーションも積極的にとってくれて盛り上げてもらい、すごく楽しめました。
とはいえ、やはり英語はできるほうが更に楽しめることは間違いないです。
服装は本当に捨ててもいい服で参加する事をお勧めします。赤土での汚れは洗濯しても取れません。
自分は捨てる予定の白シャツで参加し、参加後には赤茶色のシャツになってました。(雨が降って染み込んだのもありますが…)
ツアーは途中から本当に凸凹の道を走るので、首や腰の悪い人はやめた方がいいです。(参加前の承諾書にも自己責任でみたいなのが書いてあったと思います。)
自分達が参加した時の天気が雨だったからなのかわかりませんが、貸してもらえるゴーグルだと隙間から入ってきたり、ゴーグルが汚れで見え辛くなっているのに、結構なスピード(約20Km/h)で走るのでついて行くのが大変でした。
特にコンタクトの方は目が開けてられないです。(自分がそうでした)
シャワールームはなく、顔や手を洗うぐらいの場所があるだけで、シャワーを浴びたければ近くのビーチまで行く必要があります。
