All Reviews for North Shore, Oahu

I wasn't confident in my physical strength and felt anxious even after signing up. However, there were no problems at all. The safety measures were excellent. Moreover, for the vertical rope climb, which I was most worried about, I could ask for help and received assistance. The log crossing, which I had previously fallen from in a Japanese athletic course, was also very safe. Even when it swayed, I was able to cross it with enjoyment. Above all, the zip line in the great outdoors was exhilarating! In the end, I even did a reverse hands-free ride, returning to my childhood and having a blast. I returned home fully satisfied, having enjoyed the sea, greenery, and blue sky.

体力に自信がなくて、申し込んだものの不安でした。しかし、全く問題ありませんでした。安全対策ばっちりでした。さらに一番不安だった、垂直のロープのぼり？も手伝いを頼めば、手伝っていただけます。日本のアスレチックで落ちた経験のある丸太渡り？もとっても安全。揺らされても楽しくわたれました。何よりジップラインは大自然の中、気分爽快！最後には、逆さ手放しまでして童心に返り、思う存分楽しむことができました。海・緑・青い空を満喫して帰ってきました。

The tour itself was great. Getting to stop at some sightseeing areas and enjoy the PCC was definitely a highlight. Could have spent more time at the Dole Plantation and the PCC. The driver Rob was obnoxious however. He talked non stop very loudly and it was difficult to decifer what was fact and what was BS. He talked non stop about himself and we got to the PCC later than anticipated so had less time there.

The tour was okay. To begin with the driver did not wait or call us when we were at the hotel. We called the company so many times and they gave us info that the bus is late and then again in 10 minutes one says the bus left us! It was a horrible experience. I would believe they would atleast call us. But even then we tried to ask to meet the driver elsewhere to catch up on the tour and there was a long wait before they could say yes! The dispatcher lady was helpful but then the driver not so much. I didn't like how the driver kept on talking even though the crowd was asleep. Most tours I have been has a guide talking and interacting with you while the driver drives so its more fun but these have the driver drive and speak on microphone which was disappointing! The tour itself was okay because with the better tour guide it could have been much better. Do not miss the Polynesian Cultural Center. Could spend a good half a day there.

After an hour on the bus, we arrived. I couldn't keep my backpack with me, so I stored it in a locker and was ready to go. We watched a DVD with riding instructions, and then it was time for the 2-hour tour. Everything was in English, and we didn't stop for photos, even at the photo points. If you're hoping to take pictures while riding, this might not be suitable, as the camera couldn't focus. If there had been Japanese guidance through the intercom, I might have enjoyed it a bit more.

1時間バスに揺られた到着。後ろリュックはダメでロッカーに預けて準備OK。
乗馬の注意事項DVD見て、いよいよ2時間ツアーへ
すべて英語で記念撮影もストップせず、写真ポイントでも止まる事なく、素通り、馬に乗っている為カメラのピントが合わず記念撮影を撮りたい方には不向きです。
インカムで日本語案内が有れば、もう少し楽しめたのカナ？

The flow from village to village with happy and friendly people made us feel happy. We learned so much from the talented performers...The canoe celebration was a treat...so very crowded for viewing, but it was the Christmas holiday break. When I think of the Polynesian Cultural Center, I will smile and remember the villages, the luau and it's good feeling and the fantastic show...Ha. Unforgettable.

I really enjoyed the time spent with the gentle horses while exploring the ranch, including the movie filming locations, and seeing the mountains, the sea, and even a rock shaped like a turtle. This was my third horseback riding experience in Hawaii (North Shore and Big Island), and I recommend this facility for its great amenities. My elementary school child mentioned that it was a bit long, though.

映画のロケ地をはじめとした牧場内を周遊し、山々や海、亀の形をした岩？も見つつ、優しい馬と過ごした時間は本当に楽しかったです
ハワイでの乗馬は３回目(ノースとハワイ島)ですが施設も充実しているところもおススメです
小学生の子供は少し長かったと言っていましたが

The guide was great!
During my first trip to Hawaii, I was able to hear many stories.
I learned a lot about the characteristics of the Hawaiian Islands and their history—so many things I didn't know!
The tour also took us to a delicious garlic shrimp restaurant, and horseback riding was amazing.

ガイドさんがよかった！
初めてのハワイでいろんな話しを聞けました。
ハワイ諸島の特徴から歴史など色々、
知らない事が、いっぱい教え頂きました！
ツアーのガーリックシュリンプも美味しいお店に連れて行って行ってくれるし、乗馬も最高でした。

I had always wanted to try skydiving at least once in my life, so my husband and I participated together. We were picked up at 5 AM. I had heard from reviews that it takes about an hour to reach the site, but it seemed like there was someone who didn’t make it on time for the meeting, as we kept circling around Waikiki (even an hour later, we were still in Waikiki, picking up someone again at the hotel where I was picked up). I thought it would have been fine to have the meeting time an hour later. In the end, it took just over two hours to reach the site after getting in the car.

We completed reading and signing the contract in the car during the ride, and once we arrived, we listened to the explanation and waited for a while. When our names were called, about eight of us started preparing to board a Cessna. Once on the Cessna, we reached an altitude of 4,200 meters in about 15 minutes! When I asked if we were going to jump from above the clouds, I was told we were still halfway up! Apparently, we were still at half the height above the clouds.

Once we reached the altitude, people started jumping without hesitation. The height was so great that it felt like diving into a picture book! My feelings after jumping were: I was moved to see the roundness of the Earth!! It was a bit cold in a short-sleeved shirt! My mouth was dry! I couldn’t move my hands well (I couldn’t do the throwing kisses like in the videos). My ears hurt! The scenery was beautiful!

I don’t have a strong vestibular system, so I was frequently equalizing my ears even inside the Cessna. Still, my ears hurt during the fall. Once the parachute opened and I had some relief, I quickly equalized my ears, and it got better.

During the parachute descent, I was able to take my time and enjoy the scenery! Luckily, I saw a whale in the ocean! It was another moving experience. However, since there were quite a few turns, I recommend those who are prone to motion sickness to take anti-nausea medication. I took some beforehand, so I was fine.

Also, opting for the video was a great decision! It cost $170. I received the data directly on my phone, so I could upload it to Instagram right away. The cameraman had various ways of filming, but my husband’s camera work was really good, capturing both the background and our flying poses perfectly, making it one of my favorite videos. I feel moved every time I watch it.

Overall, it was a fantastic experience with a huge adrenaline rush! I want to jump again. Thank you!

スカイダイビングは一生に一度はやってみたいと思っていたので、夫婦で参加しました。
早朝5時にピックアップ。口コミで1時間ほどで現地に到着と伺っていたのですが、集合時間に間に合わなかった人がいたのか、ワイキキ周辺をぐるぐる（一時間後もまだワイキキにおり、自分がピックアップされたホテルで再度ピックアップしていた）それなら集合時間1時間遅くて良かったのにと思いました。
結局車に乗ってから計2時間ちょっとで現地につきました。
契約書を読んだり、サインするのは移動中の車の中で済ませ、到着したら説明を聞いて、しばし待機。
名前を呼ばれたひとから、8名くらいで1セスナといった感じで準備を始め、セスナ機へ乗っていきます。セスナに乗ってからは15分くらいで4200メートル地点へ到達できます！雲の上に到達した時に、ここから飛ぶの？と聞いたらまだハーフだよ！と。雲の上でまだ半分の高さだそうです。
到達してからは、ちゅうちょせずにどんどん人が飛んでいきます。高度が高すぎて、絵本の中に飛び込んでいく感覚でした！
落ちてからの感情は
地球は丸いのが見えて感動！！半袖なのですこし寒い！口が乾く！うまく手を動かせない（投げキッスとかする映像のようにはできなかった）耳が痛い！
景色綺麗！　です。
私は三半規管が強くはない方なので、セスナ機の中でもこまめに耳抜きをしていました。それでも落下中は耳が痛くなりました。パラシュート開いて余裕ができたので、急いで耳抜きしたら治りました。
パラシュート中はゆっくり景色を見ることができましたよ～！私はラッキーなことに海にクジラをみました！またまた感動でした。
ただ、結構旋回をするので、酔いたすい人は酔い止め服用をお勧めします。私は事前に酔い止めを飲んだので大丈夫でした。
あと、オプションで動画を頼んだのはよかったです！170ドルでした。
データで直接携帯にももらえるので、すぐにインスタにもアップできました。
カメラマンによって取り方はさまざまですが、旦那のほうのカメラワークがとっても上手で背景と飛んでいる姿をばっちり納めてくれていてとってもお気に入りの動画になりました。いつ見ても感動します。
とにかくアドレナリン大放出のすばらしい経験でした！また飛びたいです。
ありがとうございました！

It was my first time visiting Hawaii, and I had a valuable experience learning about the culture of the Polynesian region, including the Hawaiian Islands. It was a trip with my mother, who is 60 years old, and I was glad I signed up since she was also very satisfied with the experience.
However, this plan includes a tour with morning sightseeing, which means it involves group activities from morning until night, and we might get tired midway.
Also, the lunch and dinner buffet was honestly a bit disappointing...

The final night show at the Polynesian Cultural Center was truly amazing, especially the fire dance, which was nothing short of bravo!!

はじめてのハワイ観光でしたが、ハワイ諸島を含むポリネシア圏の文化を学ぶ貴重な体験をさせていただきました。60になる母と2人の旅行でしたが、母も大満足の体験となったことで申し込んで良かったと思いました。
ただ、このプランは午前中の観光のついたツアーになっていますが、これは朝から晩まで団体行動となり、中盤でバテてしまうかもしれません。
また、ランチ＆ディナービュッフェは正直微妙でした。。。

ポリネシアカルチャーセンターの最後のナイトショーは本当に最高で、とりわけファイヤーダンスについては、ブラボーとしか言いようがないです！！

I was not aware of the situation and didn't prepare because I had a limited understanding of the possibility of entering the waterfall pool due to insufficient research. Next time, I will make sure to bring my swimsuit.

リサーチ不足で滝つぼに入れる認識が薄かったので、あのような状況にとは知らず、準備をしていきませんでした。
次は水着を仕込んでおきます。

At first, I was worried if it would be okay with just the pulley and rope, but I gradually got used to it and by the end, I was able to let go and enjoy the ride. The instructor was also very kind and provided great guidance. The scenery was beautiful, and I felt like I was racing through the forest. Along the way, there were spots to eat macadamia nuts, tomatoes, and apple bananas, all of which were delicious. I want to go again! 😊

最初は、滑車とロープのみで大丈夫か心配だったけど、だんだん慣れてきて最後には手を離して滑れるくらい楽しめました。
インストラクターの方も優しく指導してくれました。
景色も良く、森の中を駆け抜けている感覚が味わえました。
途中、マカデミアナッツやトマト、アップルバナナなど食べられるスポットがありどれも美味しかったです。
また行きたいです(^-^)

Since the course started at 12:15, the pickup was at 9:50, allowing us to enjoy the hotel buffet before participating! The waiting time was almost nonexistent, and everything went smoothly. There were few Japanese-speaking staff, so I asked nearby Japanese guests for help while moving around. I thought it might be dangerous to carry my camera, so I put it in a locker, but the horses were calm and it would have been fine to bring it. I regret not taking my camera to capture the beautiful scenery and filming locations. I highly recommend bringing a camera. It was so much fun, and I would love to participate again!

12時15分～のコースだったので、お迎えも9時50分とゆっくりでホテルのブッフェに行ってから参加できました！
待ち時間もほとんどなくスムーズでした。
日本語のスタッフが少なかったので、近くにいる日本人の方に聞きながら行動しました。
カメラを持ちながらは危ないかとロッカーにしまいましたが、馬が大人しく余裕だったので、カメラを持って行けば良かったと後悔しました。
カメラを持って行ってキレイな景色やロケ地を撮ってくる事をオススメします。
すごく楽しかったです。また参加したいです。

It was really amazing! The experience during free fall and the control after the parachute opened, as well as the views, were all incredibly fun. The instructors were also very enjoyable, making it worth the trip. The waiting time after arriving at the airfield was a bit long, but I still want to go again.

ホントにサイコーでした！
フリーフォール中やパラシュートが開いた後の操縦体験や景色、全部めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです。
インストラクターの方々もとても楽しくて行った甲斐が有りました。
飛行場に着いてからの待ち時間がちょっと長いけどそれでもまた行きたいです。

I had the best and most valuable experience!!
The driver, who also took care of us, was an incredibly kind and unique grandfather, and he was really funny (laughs).
The instructors and cameramen who flew with us were truly professionals, and I felt safe while flying.
It was really fun!!
Thank you very much ^ ^

最高で貴重な体験が出来ました！！
ドライバー兼私たちのお世話をしてくださったおじいちゃん。とっても優しくて個性的で、面白かったです（笑）
一緒に飛んでくれたインストラクターやカメラマンの方たちは本当にプロで、安心して飛ぶことが出来ました。
本当に楽しかったです！！
ありがとうこざいました^ ^

We, a group of five from our company trip to Hawaii, spent three nights and five days in Honolulu. Since we are close friends, we were excited even before departure. Once we arrived in Honolulu, we had a parade of requests about where we wanted to go and what we wanted to eat. Among those plans, we booked a North Shore tour for the second day of our trip, December 17 (Monday). The tour was coordinated by Kazu, who has lived in Hawaii for decades. The journey from Honolulu to the North Shore was filled with stories about the ongoing monorail development and quizzes about the Dole Pineapple Plantation.

Along the way, we had some time, so we stopped by a coffee farm, enjoyed complimentary coffee, and listened to stories about the mountains where Zero fighters flew during the Pearl Harbor attack, reflecting on the happiness after the war while gazing at the blue Hawaiian sky. After that, we enjoyed ice cream at the pineapple plantation and finally arrived at Haleiwa's Old Town on the North Shore. We soaked in the local atmosphere of Hawaii that we had always dreamed of. Kazu shared information about local food and the history of the shops, and we savored Hawaiian dishes of tuna and shrimp, leaving us satisfied.

This is where Kazu truly shined as our local guide! He informed us that a world championship was taking place at the North Shore, where surfers from around the world gather. We asked Kazu if he could drop us off at the competition venue, and off we went to the world championship site! It was exhilarating to see the North Shore's Pipeline, which we had only seen on TV, with our own eyes! Our close-knit group of five had a precious experience! I highly recommend everyone to join Kazu's tour at North Shore through VELTRA. A wonderful experience awaits you! ^^;

私たち、ハワイ社員旅行5人組でホノルル3泊5日の旅でした。気心知れた仲間ですので、出発前から大騒ぎ。ホノルル着いたら、あそこへ行きたい。何を食べたい。リクエストのオンパレード。そんな中、ツアー2日目の12月17日（月）にノースショア観光を予約しました。現地でツアーをコーディネートしてくれたのが、ハワイ在住うん十年のKazuさん。ホノルルからノースショアまでの道のりハイウェイ道中も、現在開発中のモノレール開発秘話やドール・パイナップルプランテーションクイズなど盛りだくさん。途中、時間もあったため、「コーヒーファーム」に立ち寄り、フリードリンクコーヒーをごちそうになり、コーヒ園から眺めなれるパールハーバー大戦時のゼロ戦が飛んでいった山谷のお話しに戦後の幸せを感慨深く思い、ハワイの青空を眺めました。その後は、パイナップルプランテーションでアイスクリームを楽しみ、いよいよノースショア・ハレイワのオールドタウンに。憧れたハワイのローカルな雰囲気を満喫。Kazuさんからローカルフード情報や店舗のヒストリーなどうかがい、マグロとエビのハワイアン料理に舌づつみを打ち、お腹も満腹。ここからが現地ガイド、Kazuさんの真骨頂！ちょうど、Kazuさんが世界のサーファーが集うノースショアで世界大会が行われている情報をゲット。我われKazuさんに無理を言って、その大会会場で特別に降ろしていただき、いざ、世界大会会場に！テレビでしか見たことのない、ノースショアのパイプラインをこの目で見ることができてエキサイティング！仲良し5人組は貴重な体験をしたのでした！ぜひ、みなさん！ノースショアはVELTRA　現地ガイドKazuさんのツアーに参加してみてくださいね。素敵な体験があなたをお待ちしております^^;

I was looking forward to this tour.
The horseback riding itself was enjoyable, but the tour guide, Kaz, was very businesslike. He only said what he needed to say (just explanations) and ignored us or responded coldly when we tried to say something. Even when I just wanted to confirm something as a first-time participant, he would say things like, "I just said that, didn't I?" with a laugh, and "That's why I'm asking."
When my child spoke a little loudly, he covered his ears, sighed, and told us to be quiet, saying that if we didn't keep it down, it would irritate the tour guide again. I ended up scolding my child out of frustration.
I realized he didn't like children, and it was exhausting throughout the trip.
Even when I conveyed that my child was looking forward to seeing the sea turtles, he casually replied, "They'll be around, but there are hardly any in winter."
He told us to go through the grass, and my shoes got soaked walking through the wet grass after the rain.
After the horseback riding, he just said, "We're going back right away!" without asking for any feedback, and mentioned that we were running late. I felt like I was constantly checking the tour guide's mood, and it was very tiring.
I was really disappointed since I had paid nearly 100,000 yen for the tour. I don't think I will use this company again.

このツアーを楽しみにしていました。
乗馬自体は楽しかったのですが、ツアコンのカズさんが業務的で、言いたいことだけ（説明だけ）言って、こちらがなにか言っても無視か、冷たい反応。初参加でよくわからないので確認しただけにもかかわらず、
私さっき言いましたよね？鼻で笑って、だからそれを聞いてるんです。などと言われたり、
子どもがちょっと大きな声で話したら、耳を押さえられて、ため息ついて、静かにしてください、といわれ、静かにさせないとまたツアコンの方をいらつかせるなあと、私も子どもに叱りイライラ。
彼が子どもが嫌いなのはわかりましたが、道中どっと疲れました。
また子どもがウミガメを楽しみにしてることを伝えても、
寄りますけど、冬場はほとんどいないですよ
と、あっさり。15分で戻ってきて。と、草むらを突っ切って行けと言われて、雨上がりの草むらを歩いて靴はビシャビシャ。
乗馬後も、すぐに帰りますから！とだけ言われ、感想を聞くわけでもなく、時間がおしてる。
などと言ってきて、ツアコンの方の顔色伺がって、どっと疲れて帰ってきました。
10万円近いツアー代金を払っていたので本当に残念でした。こちらの会社は2度ど利用しないと思います。

Since my stay was short, I relied on this tour to efficiently explore the area. It covers all the famous landmarks, tourist spots, shows, and cultural experiences listed in guidebooks. The price for two meals included was a great deal.

滞在期間が短かったので、効率的に観光できるこちらのツアーにお世話になりました。ガイドブックに載っている名所、観光スポット、ショー、文化体験全て網羅されてます。2食付きでこの料金はお得でした。

Everything was great from the time of arrival. We arrived a few hours early to visit the waterfall and botanical garden. Simply beautiful and peaceful. That landed us in time for the luau and we got upgraded to VIP! Warning VIP you may be asked to be part of the show but it’s all fun and games and a great hands on learning experience. Food was buffet style and also amazingly delicious. All in all a great day at a great price.

The day after the Honolulu Marathon, I participated with two friends. I was worried about muscle pain, but I enjoyed it so much that I forgot all about it due to the refreshing feeling. There were no staff members who spoke Japanese, but it was not a problem at all. They made it fun and lively. I also got to know the people in my group well, and it created wonderful memories. The zip line was amazing!! I want to participate again.

ホノルルマラソンの翌日に友達と3人で参加しました。
筋肉痛など心配でしたが、そんなことも忘れるくらいの爽快感で楽しむことができました。
日本語を話せるスタッフはいませんでしたが、全然問題ありません。楽しく盛り上げてくださいました。一緒のグループだった人達とも仲良くなれ、とてもよい思い出ができました。
ジップライン最高です！！また参加したいです。

The facilities are clean, and in between the zip line activities, there are experiences similar to an obstacle course, which were really fun! The price is a bit high with the shuttle service included, but I was extremely satisfied and highly recommend it!!

施設もキレイですし、ジップラインの合間にアスレチックのような体験もあり、とても楽しかったです！送迎付ですと値段は高めですが、大満足すぎて本当にオススメです！！

I went by rental car instead of using the shuttle service. The location of the airport was clearly marked, so it wasn't particularly difficult to find (although I did pass it once).

Even though I went in December, which is during the rainy season, we were blessed with clear skies and no wind—it was perfect! Since it was a special experience, I requested a combination of photos and videos.

There were two options for filming: one where the instructor holds a GoPro (which is a bit cheaper) and another where an additional cameraman flies around and captures footage from various angles (which is fairly expensive). This time, I chose to have the external shots taken.

When you request filming, they will take the footage for you, but if you don't like it, you don't have to buy it (especially since sometimes the wind pressure can make your face look strange in the video). The price is relatively high, so it would be disappointing to end up with an awkward expression, so I thought this was a good service. However, since there is an additional cameraman flying around, they do ask that if you request filming, you at least purchase either the images or the video.

Filming takes place from before you board the plane until after you land. Before flying, they do an interview in front of the airport. Since I went with my spouse, they filmed both of us (we each had a cameraman, so there were two different patterns). After the parachute opens, the cameraman descends first and waits on the ground. Once we land, they film us again in an interview format.

Now, about the airport experience...

When you arrive at the airport, you first watch a safety video and sign a waiver. When I mentioned I was Japanese, I was relieved to find that both the video and the documents were in Japanese. The documents contain a lot of scary information, but that’s to be expected. Sometimes they check your identity with your passport or driver's license, but if you use the shuttle service, a copy is fine. The staff advised me not to carry my passport around.

Since some people apparently leave without paying after flying when they arrive by rental car, you have to leave your ID with them.

After that, you just wait for your name to be called. The planes are constantly taking off and landing, and the instructors efficiently pack the parachutes in preparation for the next dive.

When my name and assigned instructor were called, the preparations began. We joked around, saying things like, "Is this your first time?" "It's my first time too!" and then it was finally time to board.

As we ascended (for about 15 minutes), the instructor attached the harness, and then we were off! There was no time to be scared; we jumped right out.

The free fall was intense with the wind pressure, but I could feel the air in my hands and enjoyed the scenery. After the parachute opened, we descended slowly while taking in the view, with the guide pointing out various mountains and bays.

After landing, the video and photos were available to view in about five minutes, so we headed to the movie room. During that time, I wrote a message to the instructor and cameraman who assisted us and placed a tip in the box.

After watching the video, if you liked it, you could purchase it. The video was edited and turned out really well. Both my spouse and I purchased both photos and videos.

The data can be received via USB, but you can also receive it through AirDrop beforehand.

Finally, we took a photo with everyone who flew with us and then parted ways.

It was an incredibly good experience. Thank you!

送迎でなくレンタカーで行きました。飛行場の場所は看板もあり特にわかりづらいという事はありませんでした。(一度通り過ぎましたが)

雨季に当たる12月に行ったものの晴天に恵まれて風もなく最高でした！
せっかくの体験なので写真とビデオのコンビをお願いしました。

価格は違いますが、インストラクターが手に持ったGo Proで撮影するパターン(ちょっとだけ安い)と、もう1人カメラマンが飛んで周りからひたすら撮影するパターン(まぁまぁ高い)の2種類がありました。
今回は外から撮ってもらうことにしました。

撮影をお願いすると撮ってもらえますが、気に入らない場合は買わなくていいそうです(特に動画は風圧で変な顔になっててとても…と言う場合があるからだそう)
価格も割とするので変な顔だと残念なのでいいサービスだと思いました。
ただ、もう1人カメラマンに飛んでもらっているので撮影をお願いした場合はせめて画像、動画のどちらかは購入するようにお願いがありました。

撮影については飛行機に乗り込む前から降りた後までで、飛ぶ前は飛行場の前でインタビュー的なことをやってくれます。今回は夫婦で行ったので2人で撮ってくれました。(2人ともカメラマンをつけたので2パターン)
パラシュートを開いた以降はカメラマンは先に降りて地上でスタンバイしてます。降りたらまたインタビュー形式で撮ってくれます。
撮影の話はこれくらいにして…

飛行場についたらまず、安全のためのムービーと誓約書的な書類にサインします。日本人だと告げるとムービーも書類も日本語なので安心です。書類は怖いこといっぱい書いてますがまぁそんなもんでしょう。
身分を確認するためにパスポートか免許証を確認する時がありますが、送迎の場合はコピーでいいそうです。パスポートは持ち歩かない方がいいよとスタッフに念を押されました。
レンタカーで行くと、飛んだあと支払わずに帰る人がいるらしいので身分証を預けます。

あとは名前を呼ばれるのを待つだけです。
飛行機はひっきりなしに飛んでは降りてを繰り返し、インストラクター達は出際よくパラシュートを畳み次のダイブに備えます。

自分の名前と担当のインストラクターをコールされ、準備が始まります。
君初めて？俺も初めて！みたいなジョークを交えながらワイワイやってたらいよいよ搭乗です。

上昇しながら(15分くらい)インストラクターとハーネスをくっつけて、いざ！
怖がる暇もなく、有無を言わさずポンポン飛びます。

自由落下は風圧はすごいですが、手に空気を感じながら…景色も楽しめました。パラシュートが開いてからはゆっくり景色を楽しみながら飛行場目指して降りていきます。あの山がなんだ…この湾がなんだ…とガイドしてくれました。

降りてからは、５分ほどでムービーと写真が観れるようになるのでムービールームへ
それまでに担当してくれたインストラクターとカメラマンにメッセージを書いて、お礼のチップをボックスに入れます。

ムービー等を見て、良かったら購入する流れになります。
ムービーは編集してくれていてとてもいい仕上がりでした。
夫婦とも写真も動画もどちらも購入しました。

データはUSBで貰えますが、先立ってエアドロップでも受け取ることが可能です。

最後に飛んでくれたみんなと写真を撮って解散しました。

非常に良い経験になりました。ありがとうございました。

I participated with two friends, and we each signed up together. The check-in was handled by someone who spoke Japanese, and the explanations regarding the documents, photography options, and fees including tips were clear and easy to understand. Both the instructor and the photographer who assisted me were male, kind, and gentlemanly. This was my first experience with skydiving, and although this is the only place I know, I would like to jump here again.

You will need to sign a liability waiver for the detailed items. If you wish to take out additional insurance, it might be better to consider other options.

友人と3人で、各自申し込み一緒に参加してきました。
check inは日本語の話せる方が対応、書類や撮影オプション、チップを含めた料金などわかりやすい説明でした。
私を担当してくれたイントラ、カメラマンは両方とも男性で優しく紳士的でした。
スカイダイビングは初体験で、こちらしか知りませんが、またここで飛びたいと思います。

細かい項目の免責書類にサインをします。
別途保険加入を希望される方は、他がいいのかもしれません。

It was my first time skydiving, and the sensation of free fall was exhilarating—I had the best dive! I want to dive again the next time I visit Hawaii. Not only the dive, but the view of Kaena Point from the plane and up in the sky was beautiful, and I felt like I got my money's worth.

初めてのスカイダイビングでしたが、自由落下の速度感が気持ちよく最高のダイブを楽しめました。次回ハワイを訪れた時にはまたダイブしたいですね。またダイブだけではなく機内、上空から見たカエナポイントが綺麗で得した気分でした。

Horseback riding while gazing at the beautiful sea was very pleasant. The driver and guide provided thorough explanations of the riding precautions in advance, so I felt安心して参加できます.

きれいな海を眺めながらの乗馬はとても気持ちがよかったです。
乗馬の諸注意も、ドライバー兼ガイドさんがあらかじめ丁寧に説明してくれるので、安心して参加できます。

Excellent service in Japanese.
They provide kind and attentive support.
Everyone is friendly.
It will end in the morning.
Definitely something you should do.

素晴らしい対応日本語対応
親切丁寧に対応してもらえます
みなさん親切
午前中で終了します
是非やるべき

The excitement and anticipation peaked! My excitement slightly won over my nerves as the Cessna took off and climbed higher and higher, making my heart race! Bathed in the morning sun, the scenery of Hawaii came into view, and it was so beautiful! While I was captivated by the view, the instructor opened the door of the Cessna!

When it was my turn, I took off with my instructor, Misha! While being photographed by the cameraman, Neil, I experienced freefall! It was hard to breathe! Neil gestured with a fist pump, and I responded with a fist pump and an OK sign too! As I calmed down, I was able to breathe easier and take in the scenery around me.

When the parachute opened, I was moved by the beauty of the surroundings! I felt the grandeur of the Earth's curvature as we turned right and left, and the greenery of the mountains and the blueness of the ocean were incredibly beautiful! I had an amazing time skydiving, filled with excitement and thrill. I definitely want to try it again, and I am grateful to the instructor and all the staff. Thank you very much!

ドキドキ、ワクワクがピーク‼️
自分の気持ちの中でワクワクが少し勝って
いざテイクオフセスナ機機の高度がドンドン上がって行ってドキドキが勝手来る‼️
朝日を浴びて、Hawaiiの景色が目に入って来ると、何と美しい事か‼️景色に目を取られていると、インストラクターがセスナ機の扉を開ける‼️
自分の順番に来てインストラクターのミーシャさんと、いざテイクオフ‼️
カメラマンのニールさんに撮影されながら、フリーフォール‼️息が中々出来ない‼️ニールさんがゼスチャーで、ガッツポーズオイラも負けずにガッツポーズOKサインがくる（＾◇＾）
気持ち落ち着いて来て息が楽になり周りの景色を見る余裕が出て来ました(^_^)
パラシュートが開き周りの景色の美しさに感動‼️右に左に旋回しながら地球の丸みの壮大さを感じ、山の緑、海の青さがとてつもなく美しく感じられる時間を過ごせました‼️
スカイダイビングドキドキワクワク、凄い経験をさせてもらいました（＾◇＾）
是非また挑戦してみたいと思い、インストラクター、スタッフの皆様に感謝致します。
ありがとう御座いました

Four of us went on a private tour for sunset views on th beach and it was a great decision. I highly recommend this experience, awesome staff, horses, and views on this trail. A must when visiting Oahu!

The pickup location was filled with Japanese people. During the journey, we enjoyed some fun conversations. When we arrived at the site, it was raining, but it was clear when we took off. The dive from 4,267 meters was over in no time, but it was an experience like no other. I thought it might be impossible for couples in their 40s and 50s, but it turns out it’s not something they can’t do... It was truly enjoyable.

ピックアップ場所に来たのは日本人でした。道中、楽しいお話を聞きながら移動。現地に着いたら雨が降ってましたが飛ぶときには晴天。4267メートルからのダイビングはあっという間でしたが今までに体験したことない感動でした。40代50代の夫婦には無理かと思いましたができないことはないんだと・・・本当に楽しかったです

We went to the location on our own without a shuttle. The place was easy to find, and the check-in was smooth. During the horseback riding, we can't take backpacks or bags, so we have to leave them in lockers. It's not free. We left them in the car and were able to take water, a camera, and our phones. They explained how to ride in broken Japanese, and then we set off. The horse was smart and walked in a line, so I felt safe riding without any running. I was happy to ride in the magnificent nature! We got caught in the rain for a bit, but thanks to that, we saw a rainbow. Not only was Jurassic Park filmed here, but several other movies were shot as well.

送迎なしで、自分達で現地まで行きました。場所はすぐわかり、受付もスムーズでした。 乗馬中はリュック、カバンは持っていけないのでロッカーに預けます。無料ではありません。私達は車に置いて、水、カメラ、携帯などは持っていけます。片言の日本語で乗馬のやり方を説明してくれて、出発です。馬はお利口で列で歩き、走る事なく安心して乗れました。壮大な自然の中、乗馬ができて幸せでした！途中雨に打たれました。おかげで虹も見えました。 ジュラシックパークだけでなく、いくつかの映画が撮影されていました。

First, I was anxious because the pickup car didn't arrive even after the scheduled time... I couldn't get through on the phone... I didn't even know what kind of car it was... Finally, a car with the word "DIVING" on it arrived, but it was 15 minutes late! I thought they might have gone to the wrong location.

There were four of us participating, and after a lot of explanations during the car ride to the airport, before I knew it, we were up in the sky... Those who wanted to take photos were the first to jump out, followed by a few others who were tossed out one after another (laughs). It's hard to put into words, but it was fun, although my face and ears hurt... and I felt a bit nauseous. It's definitely an experience worth trying.

まずは、ピックアップの時間を過ぎても迎えの車が来ずハラハラ…電話も通じず…どんな車なのかも分からず…
やっと「DIVING」の文字の入った車が来たのが約束時間より15分遅れ！場所間違ったかと思った。
4人での参加だったが、とにかく車移動から飛行場での色んな説明もあり、あれよあれよと言う間に空の上……撮影希望者が　まず一番に飛び出し、続いて後の数人もポンポンと放り出される(笑)ひと言では言い表せないけど、楽しいけど、顔も耳も痛い…そして酔う。体験はしてみるものだね。
