All Reviews for North Shore, Oahu

We departed from dark Waikiki at 4 AM (or rather, in the middle of the night) and watched a video explaining "everything is at your own risk!" while feeling a bit nervous in the car. After receiving a lecture from the instructor, it was finally time for the flight. And when we jumped from an altitude of 4,267 meters... it was the best feeling ever! It was an experience that I would definitely want to repeat!

早朝（と言うか夜中w）4時のピックアップで、まだ暗いワイキキを出発した車中で「全て自己責任！」と説明されるVTRを見せられ少々ビビリながら飛行場に到着。
インストラクターによるレクチャーを受けていよいよフライト。
そして高度4267メートルから飛び出すと…もう最高の降り心地！
リピート必の楽しさでした！

I arrived earlier than scheduled, but I was greeted with a smile. Everything was in English, and the staff were very kind and friendly. The horses were really cute, and riding in such beautiful scenery was a lot of fun. It was very quiet, so it felt like a private experience! The prices are reasonable, and I hope more people get to enjoy this.

時間より早く着きましたが、笑顔で対応してもらえました。すべて英語ですが、スタッフの方もとても優しくて親切です。馬もとっても可愛いし、綺麗な景色の中の乗馬はとても楽しかったです。すごく空いているので、貸切です！！
お値段もお手頃だし、もっとたくさんの人に利用してもらいたいなぁ。

There were three of us, a young couple of two, and a group of five foreign family members.
We went armed in a jeep.
The explanations were all in English, but we managed somehow.
I got hungry from morning until we returned, so I would have appreciated some light snacks or a stop at a store on the way back.
The scenery was beautiful and it was fun, so I wish we could have taken more photos.

私達３人と若いカップル2人、後は外人の家族５人のグループでした。
武装して、ジープでGO
説明は全部英語でしたが、、まぁなんとかなりました
朝から帰りまでお腹が空いちゃうので、簡単な軽食でもあるか、帰りお店にでも寄ってもらえると嬉しかったかな
景色もよく楽しかったので
写真をもう少したくさん撮って欲しかったな

I participated alone as a woman. Since I came to Hawaii by myself, I thought I should do something big, so I made a reservation without thinking too much. There were no other solo participants besides me, but when it was time to jump, it was just me and the instructor. In a word, it was "I'm glad to be alive." The breathtaking scenery comes rushing at you. It's not fear, but pleasure. The conversation with the instructor was, of course, in English, but he was very kind and we couldn't stop talking. I was so excited. If you're even a little hesitant, you should just go for it without overthinking it.

女性1人で参加しました。ハワイに一人で来たんだから、何か大きなことをしてみようと思い、何も考えずに予約しました。1人で参加している方は私以外いませんでしたが、飛ぶときはインストラクターと自分一人です。一言で言うと、「生きていてよかった」素晴らしい絶景が目の前に飛び込んできます。恐怖ではなく快感です。インストラクターとの会話はもちろん英語ですが、とても優しくて話が止まりませんでした。ワクワクしました。もし、少しでも迷っているのなら難しく考えずにやってみるべきです。

I thought there would be other Japanese participants based on the reviews, but I was the only one this time. The driver didn't talk much, which might have been because I didn't initiate conversation, but he wasn't unfriendly. Some drivers engage with everyone during the ride, asking where they're from, but the journey was long, so it got a bit boring. There were Japanese screens for explanations that were almost like waiving rights. Most of the staff (if not all) didn't speak Japanese, but they seemed to care. Even if I didn't understand everything, it was fine as I could just follow what the person in front of me was doing. Sliding down seven times was a blast! I was a bit nervous on the first run, thinking it required more courage than skydiving, and I mentioned to the staff that I was a little nervous, but by the last run, I was enjoying it enough to choose the faster drop. The weather was also great. I could buy photos later, and although I initially chose 2-3, in the end, I got them all since they were the same price. Getting them sent via email later is quite modern. The next day, I fell and hurt my hand, and I thought if it had been before the zip line, I might not have been able to hold the handle, so I’m grateful for the day I chose.

口コミを見ると日本人の参加者もいるかと思っていたら今回私一人の日本人。
ドライバーさんはこちらから話さないからか感じは悪くなかったですが終始無口でした。ツアーによっては移動中に皆どこからですか？とか話をふるドライバーもいますが道中長かったのでちょっと退屈。現地では権利放棄に近い説明も日本語の画面がありました。
スタッフもほとんど（全く）日本語を話しませんがちゃんと気にかけてくれてた気がします。説明は全部はわからなくても前の人を見ていればいいので大丈夫でした。7本も滑ると満喫！！1本目はちょっと緊張してスカイダイビングより度胸いるかとも思いスタッフにもちょっとナーバスなどと言ってたのですが最後のダウンでは早く落ちる方を選ぶくらい楽しめました。お天気にも恵まれたのがよかったです。写真も後から買えて2－3枚買うのと全部が同じ値段だったのではじめチョイスしていましたが結局全部しました。
後からメールで送られてくるのも今どきです。
翌日転倒して手を痛めてしまいジップの前だったらハンドルを持てないので無理だったかもと選んだ日にも自己感謝です。

I wanted my son to try skydiving, so I made a reservation in Japan, and this was my second skydiving experience in Guam! I felt that the scenery in Hawaii was better and the height was greater. The free fall lasted about a minute. It was fun to be able to steer the parachute after it opened. My son jumped out of the plane while laughing, and it seemed like he had a great time.

息子にスカイダイビングさせてやりたくて、日本で予約して自身はグアムとで２回目のスカイダイビングでした！
ハワイの方が景色がよく高さもあった様に感じます。
フリーフォールが約1分くらいあったのかな。
パラが開いてから操縦させてもらえて楽しかったです。
息子は笑いながら飛行機から飛び出していき、余程楽しかったみたいです。

The challenge at 60 years old marked a turning point in my life. I participated with my son. While my son's partner seemed quiet and less satisfied, my partner was a talkative and humorous young man. We were blessed with good weather, and the view of the North Shore was fantastic.

60歳のチャレンジで、人生の区切りになりました。
息子と一緒に参加しました。息子のパートナーは寡黙で満足度が低いようでしたが、私のパートナーは饒舌でユーモアのある好青年でした。
好天に恵まれノースショアの眺めは最高でした。

It was my first time horseback riding, and I had a lot of fun! However, the North Shore was quite short, and including the meal, my stay was only about 30 minutes, so I couldn't see much at all. I would like to come back to the North Shore and take my time to explore it properly.

乗馬ははじめてでしたが、とても楽しくできました！ノースショアがかなり短く、ご飯も含めて滞在時間が30分くらいで、ほとんど何も見れませんでした。ノースショアは改めてゆっくり来たいと思います。

My wife and I were overwhelmed at the effort that had to go in to the creation of this Polynesium Center. We were most enlightned to learn that each that each of the performers in the show are actually students at the nearby BUY University.

The Center allows students to work at the Center to earn their education so that when the graduate from the University, they are equipped to go back to their own countries and assume their productive role in society.

I experienced the 2-hour course. The horses are generally very smart. The horse I was riding kept stopping to eat grass, and whenever everyone fell behind, it would run to catch up—this happened repeatedly, which was amusing. At first, I was surprised, but I got used to running after a while. I'm glad I had an experience that wasn't mentioned in the reviews. The guide also talked to us a lot, which made it fun.

2時間コースを体験しました。馬は基本的にはとってもお利口です。私が乗っていた馬は寄り道して草を食べ皆んな遅れをとれば走って追いつく、、の繰り返しでした笑はじめはびっくりしましたが途中から走るのにも慣れてきました笑口コミにはない体験ができよかったです笑笑ガイドさんもたくさん話しかけてくれ楽しかったです

Since I participated in the Thanksgiving Day tour, it was disappointing that most of the shops in Haleiwa and the garlic shrimp food stalls were closed, and I couldn't visit the places I wanted to. However, I switched my mindset and decided to try again next time, and we set off for horseback riding.

The horse I rode was a bit of a troublemaker, and during the tour, when other horses approached, it suddenly took off running and raised its front legs towards them. I almost got thrown off, but the staff quickly intervened, so it ended well, although I was a bit flustered.

The guide who drove and guided us throughout the day was very nice, and he explained things clearly and humorously at each location, which made the participants feel relaxed. He really wanted us to see sea turtles, so we stopped at several spots, and we were able to see five sea turtles up close at the last location. It was a packed and very enjoyable tour that truly made me feel the essence of Hawaii.

サンクスギビングデーのツアー参加でしたので、ハレイワのショップとガーリックシュリンプ屋台のほとんどが閉まっており、行きたいお店に訪問できなかった事は残念でしたが、次回またチャレンジしようと気持ちを切り替え、乗馬へ出発。
私の乗った馬は少し暴れん坊で、ツアー中に他の馬が近づいて来たら、急に走りだし前足をあげてその馬に向かって行きました。振り落とされそうになりましたが、直ぐにスタッフが制圧してくれたので事なきを得ましたが、少し焦りました。
一日、運転と案内をしてをしてくれたガイドさんがとても良い方で、各所での説明もわかりやすくユーモラスに話してくれて、参加者も和みました。海亀を何とか私達に見せてあげたいとの事で複数のスポットに立ち寄り、見事に最後の所で5匹もの海亀を間近で見る事ができました。盛りだくさんでとても楽しくハワイを感じられるツアーでした。

This was an amazing experience and totally worth the ticket. I ended up upgrading to a guided tour which was nice in some ways because they helped me navigate the exhibits and get places but I wasn’t able to see everything I wanted to so maybe not for everyone. Overall a great experience though!

We had such a wonderful time and this was such a unique experience. It was actually very windy on the day we went so we got jostled around a lot but it did not affect how much fun we had. This is one of the coolest experiences we’ve ever had as a family. We would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone!

I participated with my adult sons on a family trip. It's quite expensive to do skydiving in Japan for the whole family, but in Hawaii, it was just a little over 80,000 yen, so we decided to go for it and it was really great. If you like roller coasters, I definitely recommend it if you have the chance.

家族旅行で夫婦成人した息子達と参加しました。日本でスカイダイビングするとなかなか全員での参加は高額ですが、ハワイだと8万ちょいだったので思い切ってみんなで参加してとても良かったです。ジェッコースターが好きな人は機会があるなら是非オススメです。

It was my first time in Hawaii for my honeymoon. I had always wanted to experience skydiving at least once in my life.

I was both excited and nervous, but I’m glad I went for it and tried skydiving.

The instructors were great people, and we laughed the whole time; it was so much fun.

I definitely recommend everyone to give it a try!

新婚旅行で初ハワイでした。
人生で一度は体験してみたいと思っていたスカイダイビング。

ワクワクとドキドキでしたが
思いきってスカイダイビングしてよかったです。

インストラクターさんもいい人達で終始笑い、楽しかったです。

是非みなさん体験してみて下さい！

I didn't make a reservation for a private tour, but on this day, it was just my sister, the guide, and me. After passing through the polo field, we reached the seaside. There was no wind, and it was slightly cloudy. We spent about 80 minutes slowly enjoying the sound of the waves while passing through some trees, having a peaceful time.

プライベートでは予約しませんでしたが、この日は私と姉とガイドのお姉さんの三人だけ。芝のポロ場を抜けると海辺へ、風もなく、薄曇り、ゆっくりと波の音を聞きながら途中木立ちを抜け80分くらいかけ波の音を聞きながら静かな時間を過ごしました。

This was my third time participating in the tour. I joined with my girlfriend. The shuttle bus for previous tours was like a Ku'alola Ranch-style (a Western-style bus that was frankly quite old), but this time it was a regular large sightseeing bus, and it was a very clean bus. The comfort of the shuttle has improved.

After arriving, we immediately completed the reservation confirmation process, then stored our luggage in a locker before participating in the activities. After watching a safety video, we started with about six other participants on the same course.

This time it was a two-hour course, but the accompanying woman was constantly on her phone, just texting. Last time, at a Ku'alola-like place, there was a service where they took pictures of the participants with their phones in turn, but this time there was none at all. Moreover, we didn't even pass by the Jurassic Park dinosaur bone remains spot? We finished with over 30 minutes left. I was disappointed to see such a difference in the attending staff!

We were familiar with the process since it was our third time, but first-time participants might have felt like they were just riding through a forest course without experiencing the breathtaking views...

I just wish they had made sure to utilize the scheduled time properly.

今回で3度目のツアー参加でした。
彼女と2人で参加しました。
前回までの送迎バスは、クアロラランチっぽい（ウエスタン調なバスで、はっきり言って古びたバス）でしたが、今回は通常の大型観光バス、しかもかなり綺麗なバスでの送迎に変わってました。　送迎は快適さがUPしています。
到着後すぐに予約確認手続きを行い、その後ロッカーに荷物を預けてアクティビティ参加となります。ビデオでの注意説明を観た後に、同じコースの６人ほどとスタートしました。
今回2時間コースでしたが、付き添いの女性は　ずっと携帯でメールばかりをしていました。前回は、クアロラっぽい場所で順番に参加者の携帯で写真を撮ってくれたりのサービスがあったのですが、今回は全くありません。しかも、コースも、ジュラシックパークの恐竜の骨の残骸スポットも通ることなく？　30分以上　時間を残しての終了となりました。　　アテンドのスタッフでここまで違うのか！　とがっかりしました。
私たちは３度目だ要領を得ていましたが、初めての参加者は絶景なコースを通らなかったので、林間コースを中心とする乗馬と感じたでしょう、、、
　　　　
せめて、申し込み時間はきちんと消化して欲しかったです。

I participated with my son and daughter. There were three people from Taiwan and one staff member from Kualoa Ranch with us. At the beginning, they properly taught us the names of the horses, which made communication easy. The endless vast scenery was breathtaking from start to finish. At one point, they took my smartphone and captured family photos of us riding, and the staff member, who looked cool, was actually very kind and showed a deep love for the horses. I was able to savor the incredible and extraordinary experience that I could never have in Japan, feeling as if I was in a different world. I want to tell everyone that the experience of riding horses at Kualoa Ranch has become a treasure of my life. I think the two-hour course is a good choice.

息子・娘と参加しました。台湾の親子３人と６名プラス クアロアランチのスタッフさんが1人付いてくれました。始めに馬の名前をちゃんと教えてくれてコミュニケーションを取りやすかったです。果てしない広大な景色に 最初から最後まで感動でした。途中 スマホを渡して乗馬姿の家族写真を写してくれたり クールに見えて実はとっても優しくて 馬に対しての愛を感じるスタッフさんでした。日本では決して味わう事のできない豪快で非日常的世界観で同じ地球とは思えない感動を噛みしめる事ができました。クアロアランチに行って 馬に乗った体験は人生の宝物になったと皆さんに伝えたいです
２時間コースが良いと思います

I had always wanted to try skydiving, so once my trip to Hawaii was confirmed, I couldn't stop thinking about it.

On the shuttle bus, I was filled with excitement as I signed a bunch of waiver documents!

The time it took to ascend to 4,200 meters was another moment of maximum excitement! Then, I dove straight into the clouds! Spinning around, the view opened up to reveal the blue ocean and green mountains! The Earth is round!

I tried to keep smiling, but my mouth got so dry that I couldn't close it! I had to be careful not to laugh too much! I was also thrilled to check the video they filmed right after the jump, which doubled my happiness!

前からスカイダイビングをやりたいと思っていたので今回ハワイ旅行が
決まってから、スカイダイビングのことで頭がいっぱいでした

送迎のバスの中で免責書類にサインをいっぱいして ドキドキがマックス！

４２００メートルまで上昇する時間 またまた ドキドキがマックス！
そして 一気に雲の中にダイブ！
くるくる回って、開けた視界は青い海と緑に山でした！ 地球は丸い！
スマイル、スマイルを心がけましたが口の中が乾燥して、口が閉じない！
笑いすぎ注意ですね！
撮ってもらったビデオもすぐにチェックできて嬉しさ倍増です！

I was a bit anxious about my English listening skills, but I enjoyed it without any problems! The scenery was amazing, and it felt really nice when we were heading towards the sea! The staff were very cheerful, which left a good impression. I thought the price was a bit high, but considering it's an activity on a scale that's hard to find in Japan, I think it's worth it.

英語の聞き取りに自信がなく少し不安でしたが、問題なく楽しめました！景色も最高で、海に向かうラインのときはとっても気持ちよかった！スタッフがとっても愉快な人たちでそれも好印象でした。お値段は高いなーと思いましたが、日本ではなかなかできないスケールのアクティビティかなと思うと、まあいいかと思えます。

We chose this horseback riding experience because it has no age restrictions, and we have a 9-year-old child. The bus was full since it was the final stop, but the driver’s friendly approach created a pleasant atmosphere.

We stopped at Dole Plantation, which was a short visit, but we had enough time to enjoy it. At the beach, we even encountered wild sea turtles, and in the meantime, they made a reservation for garlic shrimp, making it easy to enjoy with kids. The tour price was reasonable.

The horseback riding experience was well-explained, and they encouraged us to bond with the horses, which made it a reassuring experience. Depending on the horse, it seems like a great activity for a wide age range. I hope to bring my parents, who are in their 60s, someday. By the way, the restrooms were clean and stylish, even though they were in a container.

Along the way, the instructor took photos and provided explanations about the beach, allowing us to enjoy horseback riding while feeling the pleasant breeze throughout the experience.

On the way back, they mentioned that the route might change depending on traffic conditions, and we were lucky to take a different route than we came, which allowed us to see various landscapes.

親子で9歳の子がいるので年齢制限クリアのこちらの乗馬体験にしました。
お迎えが最終地だったのでバスは満席。でもドライバーさんの声かけでみんな和やかな雰囲気。
立ち寄りのドールプランテーション、時間は短時間ですが充分楽しめました。
海辺では野生の海ガメにも出会え、その間にガーリックシュリンプの予約もしてくれて子供連れには負担なく楽しめました。ツアー料金に納得いきます。

乗馬は説明も細かく、お馬さんと仲良くなれるよう声もかけてくれて安心して体験できました。お馬さんにもよりますが年齢幅広く体験できるいいものだなと。いつか60代の両親もつれてきてあげたいです。どうでもいいですがトイレがきれいでした。コンテナなのにおしゃれな内装。

途中インストラクターさんが写真撮影もしてくれるし、ビーチの説明もしてくれるので終始ここちいい風をあびながら乗馬できました。

帰り道は渋滞状況に応じてルート変更があるとのことで、この時は来た道ではないルートを通ってくれていろんな景色を見ることができラッキーでした。

I jumped from the highest place in my 59 years of life. I was higher than the clouds. The day before, I couldn't sleep due to jet lag and nerves, but it was so much fun. I think it was a great experience. It's not about whether you can do it or not, but whether you will do it or not. I highly recommend it to those who are hesitant.

人生59年間で一番高いところから飛び降りました。
雲より高いところにいました。
前日は時差ボケと緊張で眠れなかったけど、とにかく楽しい。
いい経験をしたと思います。
できるか、できないかではなく、やるか、やらないかです。
迷ってる方は是非お勧めします。

It was my first time horseback riding, and I had a very enjoyable experience. My partner horse was smart and adorable. I was able to stroll through the magnificent nature, which became a wonderful memory of my trip.

初めての乗馬でしたが、非常に楽しい時間を過ごす事ができました。パートナーの馬も頭が良く可愛かったです。雄大な大自然の中を散歩する事ができ、旅の良い思い出となりました。

I think it was quite a reasonable price for the skydiving experience! We purchased the video for $188 and the photos for $155. Since you can't take your own photos, I think it's a good idea for those considering the purchase to think about the additional costs! The prices are a bit on the higher side, but I'm glad we bought them! I can't help but smile while looking at the photos and videos (＾ω＾).

スカイダイビングではなかなかリーズナブルな価格で体験できたかな。と思います！
私達は動画188ドル　写真155ドル　を購入しました。写真などご自身では撮れないため、
購入を考えている方はプラス料金も検討していかれた方がよいかと思います！
少しお値段はお高めですが、買ってよかったです！写真や動画をみながらニヤニヤしてしまいます(＾ω＾)

Even as a beginner in horseback riding, I had a great time, and the staff were friendly and provided easy-to-understand explanations. The horses seemed accustomed to carrying inexperienced riders, which made me feel safe while riding.

乗馬未経験でも楽しめ、スタッフも親切で説明も分かり易く楽しめました。
馬も未経験者を乗せるのが慣れているようで、乗ってて安心できました。

A few days ago, I received a notification about a change in the horseback riding course. I was really looking forward to it, so it was disappointing that I couldn't reschedule due to the last-minute notice. Since it was a change for some event, I wondered if they had known about it earlier.

During the horseback riding, I didn't have to control the horse at all; it just walked along the designated path. The guide explained things a couple of times, but it was too far away, and I couldn't hear well. For the rest of the time, I was riding while checking my phone and making calls.

The horses were cute, and it was a fun experience overall. I recommend participating without high expectations for the guide, and just enjoy the horseback riding experience and the scenery.

数日前に、乗馬コースの変更連絡がありました。コースを楽しみにしていたのに直前の連絡でリスケできず残念でした。何かのイベントの為の変更だったので、もっと前から分かっていたのでは、、？と思いました。
乗馬は、特に自分で操作することも無く、馬がひたすら決められた道を歩きます。ガイドの女の子は2回ほどその場の説明していましたが、遠くてよく聞こえませんでした。そのほかの時間は乗馬しながら携帯でメールしたり電話していました。
馬は可愛いし、乗馬は楽しい経験でした。ガイドは期待せず、乗馬体験と景色を楽しみに参加されるのが、オススメです。

It was my first skydiving experience, and it was the best experience ever.

A Japanese person came to pick me up at the hotel.

It was really cold in the morning. Just wearing a hoodie was not enough to keep warm. Please be careful about this.

Once we arrived at the location, we received explanations and were offered photo options. I bought them, and I think later I would have regretted not buying them. I'm glad I did. They take a lot of pictures.

We practiced how to land, and then it was takeoff!

It was an amazing experience. I felt like I conquered the Earth (laughs).

初めてのスカイダイビングでしたが、最高の経験でした。

ホテルまで日本人の方が迎えに来てくれました。

朝一なのですごく寒いです。パーカー一枚ではすごく寒かった。これは注意してください。

現地について説明など聞きます、写真の提案もここでされます。私は買いましたが、後で「買っておけばよかった〜」となると思います。買ってよかったです。たくさん撮ってくれます。


着地の仕方など練習して、テイクオフ！


最高の体験でした。地球を征服したような気分です（笑）

During the journey there, the driver guided us through various things in the area, and I was happy to learn interesting facts while saying, "Oh, really?" and "Wow!" The horseback riding experience was refreshing and enjoyable. The local staff were also wonderful people. If I could wish for something, I would have liked a little more time to explore Haleiwa Town, even if it meant a slightly later return time. Perhaps it was to avoid traffic? Maybe just a little bit of a tease is just right? It makes me want to go back again.

行きの道中ではドライバーさんが周辺のあれこれをガイドしてくださり、ふむふむ、へ～そうなんだぁ！と豆知識を教わりながら進むことができ嬉しかったです。乗馬も爽やかに気持ちよく体験できました。現地スタッフさんも素敵な方達でした。欲を言えば、解散時間がもう少し遅くなっても構わないのでハレイワタウンでの散策時間がもう少し長ければなぁ～なんて思いました。渋滞対策かな？「もの足りない位」がちょうどいいのかな？また行きたくなるからね。

Ziplining at Climb Works was the greatest experience ever. My friend and I are scared of heights but we felt very safe and had a lot of fun. Our guides Jackie, Reece and Aio were super kind and made us laugh the entire time we were there. They lightened the mood and helped me forget about how high up I was. Even after we finished ziplining my friend and I could not stop talking about the experience and the fun we had on our time during this activity. I really recommend going to Climb Works if you are interested in going ziplining. You will definitely not regret going! I definitely cannot wait to go again!!!

this was my first visit to oahu and the i had booked an introductory tour. it was a perfect start. our tour guide was really lovely with a good sense of humour . he was also knowledgeable about the local history and little areas of interest being a local interest.
there were lots of visits to some beautiful beaches and enough time at the waimea botanical gardens to go for a wander. the lunch was delicious. topped at the end a visit to the dole plantation.
i wish we had more time at the plantation to actually go out on the train to be amongst the growing pineapples which would have added to the experience
