Although it was unfortunately rainy, I was able to enjoy a different charm of Hawaii that is not found at the beach or in the city. I took my two children on a movie location tour, a jungle tour, and a cruise. Since we spent most of the time on vehicles, it was quite easy even with kids. On Sunday, the cruise tour was smaller in scale, but instead, we enjoyed various tropical fruits at an orchard, which turned out to be quite nice.
あいにくの雨でしたが、ビーチや市街地とはまた違うハワイの魅力を堪能できました。
子供2人連れて映画ロケ地めぐり、ジャングルツアー、クルーズの3つを選択しました。
ほとんど乗り物に乗っているので子供がいても楽チンです。
日曜はクルーズツアーが小規模のものとなり、代わりに果樹園で色々な南国フルーツを楽しめたのですが、これが結構良かったです。

A graduation trip with my best friend, just the two of us girls. I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first time surfing in Hawaii, so I signed up for a school. The staff was friendly, and surfing in Waikiki was a dream! It was simply the best! That's all I can say!

Since we were going anyway, my wife insisted that we try horseback riding! Initially, I had planned to do a zipline experience that I saw on TV, but horseback riding seemed to be quite popular, and we couldn't secure a time that worked for us (I received numerous cancellation emails from VELTRA…). So, we decided to focus solely on horseback riding.
However, since horseback riding alone does not come as a package, there was no shuttle service from Waikiki. We chose to take a bus (The Bus) from Waikiki to Ala Moana for the transfer. The transfer at the bus stop south of Ala Moana Center was straightforward, but the only downside was that after a long ride in an air-conditioned bus, I needed to use the restroom frequently.
We got off at the bus stop in front of Kualoa Ranch and headed straight to the building in front of us. After passing through the shop, we found the entrance to the attraction at the back. We exchanged our voucher for tickets at the ticket booth and went to the horseback riding building at the designated time.
A staff member guided us to sign a waiver. After that, we watched a DVD explaining the horseback riding experience. It seemed that there were several languages available, but they made sure to play the Japanese version for us.
Once the group was assembled, the horses were brought out, and we were guided in order. Despite it being a weekday, there were quite a few people (around 16), and it took just under 30 minutes from the explanation until everyone was mounted. This shows how popular it is.
Finally, we began the horseback riding. We rode for about 45 minutes on paths that included muddy areas and paved roads. There were various things to keep in mind, like needing to ride in a single file, ensuring the horses didn't eat grass, and maintaining balance, but the views of the sea and mountains while riding were absolutely beautiful.
In a highland horseback riding experience, you only get to enjoy the mountain scenery, but here you can enjoy both the mountains and the sea. The one-hour course (which was actually about 45 minutes) flew by. I would love to go riding again if I have the chance. Next time, I definitely want to try the two-hour course…
せっかく行くからには乗馬体験したい!との妻の一言から決まりました。最初はテレビで見たジップラインとのセットを目論んでいたのですが、乗馬はなかなか人気らしく、思うような時間が取れませんでした(何度VELTRAさんからのキャンセルメールが届いたことか…)。それで、乗馬一本に絞っていくことに方針変更。
がしかし、乗馬だけの場合パッケージ扱いとならないので、ワイキキからの送迎がありません。私たちはワイキキからアラモアナ乗り換えのバス(The Bus)というコースを選択しました。乗り換えはアラモアナセンター南のバス停で特に問題ないのですが、長時間冷房のきいたバスに乗ったため、トイレが近くなったのが唯一の難点でした。
クアロア牧場前のバス停で降り、まっすぐ正面の建物へ。売店を通り抜けると奥にアトラクションの入り口があります。チケットブースでバウチャーとチケットを引き換え、指定の時間に乗馬の建物へ行きます。
係りの女性から承諾書に署名するよう案内があります。その後DVDで乗馬に当たっての説明を見ます。日本語のほかにも何ヶ国語かあるようですが、ちゃんと日本語を流してくださいました。
組がそろったら馬が連れてこられ、順番に案内されます。が、平日にもかかわらず人数が多く(16人ほどいたような)、説明から皆が乗り終わるまで30分弱を要しました。人気の高さが伺えます。
その後いよいよ乗馬開始。ぬかるみもある道やコンクリ舗装の道などを約45分ほど馬にのって歩きます。一列に進めないといけないとか、馬が草を食べたりしないようにとか、バランスをとらなくちゃとか、いろいろ気にするところはありますが、馬に乗りながら見る海や山の景色はとてもきれいです。
高原の乗馬体験とかだと山の景色だけですが、こちらでは山も海も両方楽しめます。1時間コース(実質45分ほど)ですがあっという間に過ぎていきました。また機会があれば乗りに行きたいです。次回はぜひ2時間コースで…。

The experience of interacting with dolphins was great, and the instructor was friendly. Given the scale and content of the facility, I think it would be fine to shorten the experience by about an hour since there is extra time. For those who don't interact with the dolphins, it feels too long, and I saw several people sleeping in the restaurant chairs.
イルカと触れ合う体験、インストラクターはフレンドリーで良かった。

I don't think you can ride horses in such a free manner in Japan. I was a bit anxious at first with just a brief lecture, but I managed to be okay. However, the guide at the front kept explaining everything in English, and I couldn't understand what she was saying at all, so I had no idea about the precautions. Therefore, I regret to say that I just enjoyed it as background music the whole time.
日本ではあんな野放し状態で馬に乗せてもらえることなんてないと思います。
最初にほんの少しのレクチャーのみで不安でしたがなんとか大丈夫でした。
ただ、先頭をいく案内係のおばちゃんがずっと英語で説明をしながらいってくれるのですが、何を喋っているのかさっぱり分からず、注意事項もさっぱりわからずでした。

My first parasailing experience. I chose the lowest option available, but it was more than enough. I'm not sure if they adjust the height based on the person (^ ^).
It was incredibly thrilling, and the views were amazing. It finishes quickly in the morning, and the morning breeze felt great; the trolley ride was also fantastic. I paid $30 for photos, and they turned out beautifully, so I highly recommend it♡. The fact that you can't come back unless everyone participates was a bit annoying, though, haha. I want to do it again!!
初パラセーリング。選べるなかで一番低いものにしたけど、十分です。というか人に合わせて高さ変えてるのかよくわかりません(^ ^)

I decided to book parasailing this time because it seemed like the most exciting ocean activity. I can do banana boat rides and jet skiing anytime, but flying in the sky is something you can't do every day. I had heard about my friend's experience doing it before, so I was determined to try it.
It was my first time booking a tour online, but it was manageable as long as you have a computer (laughs). There were quite a few details to fill out.
On the day of parasailing, the local driver arrived at the hotel right on time to pick us up. I handed over the voucher printed in Japan. Although Japanese wasn't understood, the driver was very cheerful and friendly. Even though he didn't speak English, I managed to understand the meaning of a few words and communicated through gestures, which was fun! I felt a bit regretful that I couldn't speak English (laughs).
We picked up other participants one after another and headed to the marina. Most of them were Japanese couples, including us. The driver wasn't a Japanese guide, but he kindly shared recommendations for delicious local restaurants while driving, which was helpful.
As for clothing, it's basically fine to stay in your swimsuit and just wear something over it. A water-resistant hoodie like mine is sufficient. Just make sure to put your towel, phone, camera, and money in a waterproof bag. I was trying to take pictures while flying (laughs).
When we arrived at the marina, there was a local staff member who could speak Japanese, which was a relief! They took pictures of us flying and saved them on an SD card, which they sell back to you for $30.
The boat captain and staff were manly Americans! They were very kind! R&B music was blasting from the speakers on the boat, which really pumped up the mood. I would love to go sea bass fishing on this boat (laughs). We departed from the marina and headed offshore.
We set up the equipment and were connected to a huge parachute. The moment the captain released the wire... we shot up into the sky (laughs)! It was incredibly high, and the view was amazing! I had no idea flying could feel this good. The staff on the boat were taking pictures with a DSLR camera (laughs). It was the best! This is perfect for anyone who dreams of flying!
However, when we took off, there was a sudden downpour, and we were caught in heavy rain while in the air! I quickly took a lot of pictures and videos with my waterproof phone!
I felt like a pilot escaping from a downed fighter jet (laughs). Eventually, the wire was reeled in, but some people were dropped into the sea. We also ended up splashing into the water!
It became an amazing memory.
I'm not quite sure, but it seems like you can choose the height you fly at, yet everyone was at 150 meters, right? On the boat, no one was checking who was flying at what height. I have a feeling that even if you book for 90 meters, you might end up flying at 150 meters. Can someone try it? If that's the case, it might be better to book at the cheaper rate.
Anyway, it was incredibly fun!
On the way back, we bought the SD card and were taken back to the hotel. Since we are Japanese, let's remember to follow etiquette and place towels on the seats for the ride home!
今回パラセーリングを申し込んだのは、海のアクティビティで一番エキサイティングに思えたからです。
バナナボートやジェットはいつでも出来ますから。空に舞い上がるなんてなかなか出来ないですよね。
友人が以前やってた体験談を聞いてたので、絶対にやろうと思いました。
初めてインターネットでツアーを申し込んだ訳ですが、まあまあ、パソコンがあれば気合いで申し込めますね(笑)登録内容は多いですが。
パラセーリング当日、時間ぴったりに現地のドライバーさんがホテルまで迎えに来てくれました。
日本で印刷したバウチャーを渡しました。
日本語は通じなかったんですが、かなり明るく気さくなドライバーさんで、英語わからなかったですが、一個の単語の意味を理解し、ジェスチャーでなんとかコミュニケーションとれて楽しかったです!逆に自分が英語わからないのが残念で悔しい(笑)
あと、自分達以外に申し込んだ方々を次々ピックアップ してマリーナへ。
ほとんど日本人カップルばっかりでしたね、自分達もですが。ドライバーさんは日本語ガイドではないですが、現地の料理の美味しいお店を教えてくれなら運転してくれて参考になりました。
服装は基本的に水着のまま、上からなんか着ればいいです。自分みたいに海用のパーカーあれば十分。あとはビニール袋に、タオルやケータイ、カメラ、お金等を防水仕様にしていれれば大丈夫です。自分飛んだまま撮影しようとしてたんで(笑)
いざマリーナに着くと日本語しゃべれる現地スタッフさんがいて助かりました!
飛んでる写真を撮影してSDカードに保存、30ドルで帰りに売ってくれるみたいです。
ボートの船長さんやスタッフさんも男らしいアメリカ人!とても優しいです!
ボートではスピーカーからR&Bが爆音で流れててテンションブチアゲです。このボートでシーバス釣りに行きたい(笑)
マリーナを出発!沖合いへ。
装備をガチャガチャセットして、二人で巨大なパラシュートに繋がれて。
船長さんがワイヤーをフリーにした瞬間…………
空にぶっ飛んで行った自分ら(笑)
めちゃめちゃ高いし、景色が最高!
空を飛ぶのがこんなに気持ちいいなんて知らなかったです。
ボートからはスタッフさんが一眼レフでパシャりしてるし(笑)
最高!空を飛ぶのに憧れがある人には最適です!
ただ、自分達がぶっ飛んで行った時は突然のスコールで、空中で激しい雨に見回れ騒ぎまくりました!すかさず、防水仕様にしたスマホから写真撮りまくり、ムービー撮影しました!
気分は撃墜された戦闘機から脱出したパイロットです(笑)
ようやくワイヤーを巻き取られますが、人によっては海に落とされます。
自分らも海にジャボンされました!
めちゃめちゃいい思い出になりました。
よくわからないのが、飛ぶ高さ選べるみたいですが、みんな150メーターなんじゃないですかね?
ボートの上ではいちいち誰が何メーター飛ぶなんて確認してないですよ?
もしや、90メーターで申し込んでも150メーター飛ばされるような気がする。
だれかやってみて?だったら安い料金で申し込んだ方がいいんじゃ?
まあ、なんにせよ、めちゃめちゃ楽しかったです!
帰りはSDカードを買い、ホテルへ送迎。
日本人ですから、マナーを守り、タオルを座席に引いて帰りましょうね!
Thank you very much for participating in the tour.
We also appreciate your enjoyment of the parasailing experience.
Regarding the height you mentioned, it is adjusted by the length of the cable. Therefore, you can enjoy the height you requested, so please rest assured.
Thank you for your valuable feedback despite your busy schedule.

This was my second time horseback riding in Hawaii. The first time, I participated in a local tour at Kualoa Ranch. This time, I was drawn to the seaside course and set off to the ranch by rental car. However, there was no sign at the entrance of the ranch, and after entering a couple of other properties and being told it was the wrong place, it took quite a while to finally arrive. When we got there, there were only four of us as guests, and both the staff and the horses were relaxed. Time to ride! It was written that the riding session would last 45 minutes, but it seemed like we walked slowly. On the sandy beach, locals were enjoying barbecues and sunbathing while listening to music. The horses were quite greedy, lowering their heads to eat grass, which made me a bit nervous, but it was a lot of fun. After horseback riding, we went swimming nearby, and it felt like a private beach. Thank you, Adriana!
ハワイでの乗馬は二回目です。1度目はクアロア牧場の現地ツアーに参加しました。今回は海辺のコースに惹かれてレンタカーで牧場までいざ出発しました。・・・が、牧場の入り口に看板らしきものがなく、2か所ほど他の敷地内へ入っては違うと言われ、たどり着くまで結構な時間がかかりました。着いてみると、客は私たち4人のみで、スタッフも馬ものんびり。いざ乗馬!乗馬の時間は45分と書いてありましたが、ゆっくり歩いていただいたようでした。砂浜の海辺は現地の人たちが音楽を聴きながらバーベキューや日光浴をしていました。馬たちは食いしん坊で草を食べる度に頭を下げるのでヒヤヒヤしましたが、とても楽しかったです。乗馬の後は牧場の近くで海水浴をしましたが、まるでプライベートビーチみたいでした。アドリアーナさんありがとう!

I signed up for the 90-meter option. On the day of the event, since our accommodation was at the Hilton, we walked there. Including us, there were three groups, with two of them being Japanese. I had seen reviews mentioning seasickness, so I took some motion sickness medication before participating. It didn't sway much, but since it was a small boat, I think it's definitely better to take it. Also, the captain spoke entirely in English (laughs), and there were many things I didn't understand, but I guessed he was saying not to touch the bar above our heads, just as the reviews mentioned. According to the height order, we were supposed to be second, but ended up going last. An American lady told us, "You were the highest," so I thought maybe we were mistaken for the Japanese couple who were on the 120-meter option. Since the prices are different, it's important to confirm this!
My husband was strongly opposed, but once we flew, it was really quiet, and I understood how birds feel (laughs). I thought it would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so I was truly satisfied.
They will ask you about photos when you get on, but it's better to mention it just in case. It's 30 dollars for 135 photos, and since it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, I don't think it's expensive. It was truly a great experience!
90メートルで申し込みました。
当日、宿泊先がヒルトンだったので徒歩で向かいました。私たち含めて3組、内日本人は2組でした。向かうまでに船酔いをするとの口コミを見ていたので、酔い止めを飲んで参加しました。あまり揺れなかったのですが、小型の船なので必ず飲んだ方がいいと思います。また、船長さんはオール英語(笑)何言ってるのか分からないことも多かったのですが、とりあえず頭上にあるバーには触らないと口コミ通りのことを言ってるのだと推測…。高さ順に行くと多分私たちは2番目の予定でしたが、最終で飛ぶことに。「あなたたちが一番高かったわよ」とアメリカ人のマダムに言われたので、一緒に乗っていた日本人カップル(120メートル)と間違われたのかなと思います。料金が異なるので、ここはしっかり確認したほうがいいです!!
主人は大反対でしたが、飛んでみると本当に静かで鳥の気持ちがわかりました(笑)一生に一回の経験だと思っていましたので、本当に満足しました。
写真は乗るときに聞いてくれますけど、一応伝えたほうがいいです。135枚で30ドル、一生に一回なので、高いとは思いません。本当に良い経験でした!

I went to Hawaii for a wedding and did parasailing there. I didn't tell my sister, who came with me, that I had booked the 150-meter course... At first, she was scared, but once she tried it, she was super excited. The time spent in the air was long, and I was very satisfied. There were courses from 90 to 150 meters, but it seems like it's more about the length of the rope rather than the height. The 90-meter course had a shorter time in the air, so if you want to enjoy the beautiful scenery for a longer time, I recommend the 150-meter course.

In Japan, it seems that you can't really go horseback riding without a license, so I wanted to challenge myself in Hawaii and participated. I enjoyed canyon horseback riding at a place called Happy Trails. There are explanations in Japanese, and the instructor teaches you how to handle the horses in broken Japanese, so there's no need to worry about handling the horses. The horses are trained for polo and were surprisingly calm, which was very soothing.
When you think of Hawaii, the image of beaches is strong, but I enjoyed a different side of Hawaii's scenery.
As a note, the red dirt can get quite messy, so it's better to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty.
After horseback riding, we stopped by a beach with sea turtles, but overall, the schedule moved quickly, and the day ended in no time.
日本ではライセンスを取らないとなかなか乗馬はできないようなのでハワイでチャレンジしたいと思い参加しました。
Happy Trailsというところで渓谷乗馬を楽しんできました。
日本語の説明書きが書いてあるし、インストラクターの方がカタコトの日本語で馬の扱い方を教えてくれるので、馬の扱い方は心配ないです。馬もポロ用に訓練された馬で驚くほどおとなしく癒されました。
ハワイというとビーチのイメージが強いですが、また違うハワイの景色を堪能しました。
注意事項ですが、結構赤土で足元が汚れることがあるので汚れてもいい恰好で行ったほうがいいですね。
今回は乗馬の後海亀のいるビーチに寄りましたが全体的に乗馬以外は駆け足でスケジュールが進みあっという間に一日が終わってしまいました。

I bought photos and a DVD on the spot, and they took more pictures than I expected, which made me very satisfied. On the way back, we were in the same car, but the driver instructed a different drop-off point that ended up being the opposite of another group of Japanese tourists. Since I couldn't speak English, I was dropped off at the wrong place and had to walk back to the hotel in my wet swimsuit.

Since there is no shuttle service for the tour, I rented a Harley with a rental bike the day before and set off from the local area. In a country where helmets are not required, I enjoyed the freedom with a bandana and sunglasses while heading to the ranch. I wish this could be included in the tour as well!
This morning, it was just the four of us in a private session, and most of the preparations for horseback riding were already done. The horses, saddled and ready, lined up to greet us. The staff, consisting of friendly cowboys and cowgirls, assisted us, and since they could speak a little Japanese, the process was smooth.
The horse assigned to me was named Cowboy, and all the horses were well-trained and adorable. The horseback riding was quite hands-off, so beginners might feel a bit confused without an experienced rider accompanying them. It's common knowledge that the handling of reins is the opposite of Japan, so if you understand that, you can ride fairly freely, which made it a lot of fun for us.
We rode for 90 minutes, climbing steep, unmarked slopes and traversing a varied ranch landscape. It was very satisfying. However, I wished we could have been taken to a spot with a better ocean view at the top of the mountain, which is the only reason I’m giving it four stars.
I plan to choose this place for horseback riding again next time, but I think I will negotiate before riding. It was a lot of fun.
送迎の無いツアーなので、前日よりレンタルバイクでハーレーを借り現地出発
ヘルメットの要らない国なので、バンダナサングラスで開放感満喫しながら牧場目指して
ドドドドド! (これもツアーに含めてくれればと思います)
今日の午前中は自分達4人だけの貸切状態で、乗馬の支度は殆どおわっており
鞍スタンバイの馬たちが、並んでお出迎え
スタッフも笑顔が素敵なカーボウイとカウガールが対応してくれて、日本語も片言で喋れる人達なので手続きもスムーズでした。
自分のあてがわれた馬は名前はカウボーイ、どの馬もよく教育されていて可愛かった
乗馬はかなり放任型で、初心者は経験者同伴じゃないと少し戸惑うかも
日本と手綱の扱いが逆なのも海外乗馬は常識なので、分かっていれば逆に
ある程度は自由に乗せてくれるので、自分達は凄く楽しかったです。
道無き急斜面を上ったり、起伏に富んだ牧場を90分かけての乗馬
のりごたえ満点です。
ただ、山の上でもう少しオーシャンビューなところに案内してもらいたかったかな
と、そこだけが残念で星4つです。
次回も乗馬はここに決定のつもりですが、乗る前に交渉してみようと思っています。
楽しかったです。

My husband and I participated in the first morning session. I was a bit anxious about whether our reservation was confirmed, but we were picked up on time by a car with a big shark picture on it ( ˊᵕˋ ). It was tough getting up at 5:30 AM, though (laughs).
After about an hour's drive, we arrived and boarded the boat!!! The crew didn't speak any Japanese, so we read the instructions in Japanese. Even though they couldn't speak Japanese, they communicated well through gestures, so it wasn't a problem at all♪ On the way to the shark spot, they playfully startled us with shark dolls and checked to see if we were feeling okay; they were really nice people.
When we reached the spot, there were so many sharks on the surface!!! Since our turn was third, we watched the sharks swimming around. The journey to the spot was fine, but once the boat stopped, I started to feel a bit seasick (laughs). It seemed like everyone else felt the same way (laughs). We didn't get to the point of throwing up, but a few people did look like they were struggling (;▽;).
However, when it was our turn, our excitement took over, and the seasickness disappeared! The sharks we saw right in front of us were absolutely beautiful! They didn't bump into the cage, just swimming around it gracefully (*˘︶˘*). There were more than ten sharks♪ But some people inside the cage looked a bit seasick and unwell (;▽;). I wouldn't recommend this for those who are prone to motion sickness (;▽;).
But it was an incredibly valuable experience!!!
旦那と二人で朝イチの部で参加しました。
ちゃんと予約できてるか不安でしたが、時間通りにサメの絵が大きく載った車でお迎えにきてもらいました( ˊᵕˋ )朝5:30でさすがにつらかったですが(笑)
車で1時間ほどで到着し、船に乗って出発!!!
クルーのみなさんは全く日本語はしゃべれないので、日本語表記の注意書きを読みました。日本語はしゃべれないけど、ジェスチャーなどで伝わるのでぜんぜん問題ありませんでした♪サメがいるスポットまでの道のりもサメの人形で脅かしてきたり、具合悪くないかとか気にかけてくれてとても良い人たちでした。
ポイントについたら水面にたくさんのサメが!!!
私達夫婦の順番は3番目だったので、水面のサメを見たりしてました。
ポイントまでの道のりは全然平気でしたか、船が止まるとすこーしずつ酔ってきました(笑)みなさんそんな感じでした(笑)私たちは吐くまではなかったけど、何人かは吐いていてつらそうでした(;▽;)
でも自分たちの番になるとテンションが上がり、船酔いなんて吹っ飛びました!
目の前で見えるサメたちはとても美しかったです!檻にぶつかってくるなんて危険な事はなく、檻のまわりをぐるぐると泳いでる感じです(*˘︶˘*)10匹以上いました♪でも中には檻の中で波酔いして、具合悪そうな方もいました(;▽;)酔いやすいかたはオススメ出来ないですね(;▽;)
でもすごく貴重な体験が出来ました!!!

I asked a friend living in Hawaii if there was a place where families could go to see a Hawaiian show, and they recommended this show!
The first part of the show was quite relaxed. My dad seemed to be wondering when it would really start (laughs). Also, the MC spoke in English, so I think those who don't understand English might not catch what was being said at all...
The seats were perfectly fine even at the cheaper price! However, the seats were quite close to the strangers next to us, making it a bit difficult to move around (´・_・`).
The show itself was really impressive and powerful in the second half. The first part might be a little boring, though.
The buffet had a lot of variety, and as a meat lover, it was fantastic for me! There were also vegetables, fruits, and rolls, so I think even those who aren't fond of American food will find something to eat!
ハワイ在住の知り合いから、家族で行けてハワイアンショーが見れるところはないか?と聞いたところ、このショーを教えてもらいました!
最初のショーが結構ゆったりしていました。父は結構まだかみたいな雰囲気でした(笑)そして、MCは英語なので、英語分からない方は何を言ってるか全然わからないと思います、、
席は安い方でも全然十分でした!ただ隣の見知らぬ人ともかなり席が近くて少し動きずらいです(´・_・`)
ショー自体は後半はすごく迫力のある素晴らしいショーでした。途中までは少し退屈かもしれないですね。
ビュッフェもたくさん種類があり、お肉好きの私にとっては最高でした!野菜やフルーツ、巻物などもあったので、アメリカの御飯苦手な方でも少しは食べるものがあると思います!

My 9-year-old child participated and had a great time. They were able to stand up on the board in just one session and now want to continue surfing. The instructor was a foreigner, so I think it would be more enjoyable if you understand some English. By the way, my child can speak, so it seems they had a lot of fun! They also said the instructor was cool.
子供1人『9歳』が参加して最高だった、一回で立てて今後もサーフィンをやりたいと言っています。先生は外人なのである程度英語が分かった方が面白いのかなと思います。ちなみに子供はしゃべれるのでとっても楽しかったようです!先生もかっこよかったと言っていました。
Dear Yuyu,
Thank you very much for choosing Hands Hideman Surf School. We are truly delighted that your child expressed interest in wanting to surf again. Although our instructor is a foreigner, they can explain in broken Japanese, so even those who cannot speak English at all can easily participate.
Please do join us again the next time you visit Hawaii. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.
Best regards,

I participated at the last session at 4 PM as a memory of our honeymoon.
The pickup bus was 7 or 8 minutes late, which made me anxious, but in the end, we were able to enjoy the sky and sea of Waikiki without any issues.
It was my first time parasailing. I was surprised at how quiet it was up in the air. I initially thought there would be a strong wind, but instead, it felt like time had stopped as I leisurely chatted with my wife during our aerial stroll. Just the two of us under the slightly setting Hawaiian sky. I felt so happy.
As part of the experience, there was a moment when we were descending to the boat at the end of the session, and they pretended to drop us into the sea for a second before soaring back up into the air. My wife and I got completely soaked, and the seawater stung our noses, but it became a fun memory. I'm grateful for that.
However, the waves were rough that day, and the boat was rocking a lot. An American man who had been lively on the way there was completely groggy on the way back. If you're prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must.
新婚旅行の思い出に最終16時に参加しました。
迎えのバスが7、8分遅れて焦りましたが、結果無事にワイキキの空と海を楽しめました。
初パラセイリング。上空は思いのほか静かで驚きました。
当初はもっとバシバシ風が来るものかと思ってましたが、時間が止まったかのような静寂の中、のんびりカミさんと会話しながらの空中散歩。
少し日が傾き始めたハワイの空に2人きり。幸せを感じました。
これはお約束のジョークなのか、体験終了時間が来てボートに降下していく際、一瞬海に落とすフリしてまた上空に舞い上がるという演出が入ります。
我々夫婦はどっぷり頭まで浸かってしまい、海水で鼻がツーンとなりましたが、それも楽しい思い出となりました。感謝です。
ただ、当日は波が荒かったのか、船の揺れがハンパなく、行きのボート上では元気だったアメリカ人のおじさんが帰りには完全グロッキーになっていました。
乗り物に弱い人は酔い止め必須です。

This is my second horseback riding experience at Kualoa. Last time, I felt that the 2-hour ride was a bit long, so this time I opted for the 1-hour course. Riding in the great outdoors was indeed very pleasant, and I enjoyed it enough in just 1 hour. Next time, I would like to participate in a course other than horseback riding.
2回目のクアロアでの乗馬体験になります。
前回は2hでちょっと長いと感じていたので、今回は1hコースにしてみました。
大自然の中での乗馬はやはりとても気持ちよく、1hでも十分楽しめました。
今度は乗馬以外のコースにも参加したいと思います。

We participated as a family of five. We visited the Dole Plantation, had lunch with Huli Huli chicken in Haleiwa, and then went to Turtle Bay, where everyone had their first horseback riding experience. At first, we were anxious, but the horses were very well trained, and we enjoyed riding between the beautiful beach and the forest. Our guide was an experienced Japanese person, and we had a great time. I think this is a tour I would recommend to everyone.
家族5人で参加しました。ドールプランテーションを見学して、ハレイワでフリフリチキンの昼食をしてからタートルベイへ行き、みんな初めての乗馬体験をしました。最初は不安でしたが、馬はとてもよく調教されており、きれいな浜辺と林の間を馬に乗って散策しました。ガイドも経験豊富な日本人で楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。皆さんにお勧めしたいツアーだと思います。

I was satisfied to have shrimp for lunch! There were a lot of flies, but it was a perfect tour for those who want to enjoy horseback riding! The riding time was long, and I felt a sense of accomplishment from riding more than on other tours. (I had horseback riding experience on a different tour before.) I chose the canyon option, and it was good to be in the mountains rather than by the sea since it was hot even in October. I had a fulfilling day.
お昼はシュリンプ食べれて満足!ハエは多かったですが・・・乗馬を楽しみたいという方にはもってこいのツアーでした!乗っている時間も長く、他のツアーより乗馬をしたという達成感がありました。(以前、違うツアーで乗馬経験しました)渓谷の方を選びましたが、10月でも暑かったので海より山でよかったです。1日充実できました。

The staff (Alex) was sensational! From chatting on our ride I felt like we were family.. Like we knew each other for years... Very inviting, knowledgeable and friendly! The horses are beautiful and sweet and the property you get to ride on is like out of a fairy tale! I will definitely be coming back every time I'm in Hawaii!
