All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

The only scary moment was the jump itself, but everything else was amazing. It seems we didn't reach an altitude of 4200, so we received a refund. I would love to try it again if I go back.

怖かったのは飛び出す瞬間だけであとは最高でした。高度が4200到達しなかったらしく返金もありました。もし次に行っても挑戦したいです。

Our guides were great, they were Sarah and a lovely red head from CO, I don't remember her name.
I have always wanted to ride a horse on, on, a beach, not near one, not within view of, on a beach. Splashing in the water. This ride was not on a beach and should not be advertised as such.

Our tour of the island was very enjoyable. Very happy to see the Pineapples growing, and the lay of the land. The guides were prompt and the guide at the Centre, was especially polite. (Congrats to them, too, for indicating they do not except tips.) We visited three villages but I've done these without a guide and on my own, saw all six villages in the time he took us to three. I know time is spent gathering people and passing out leis and explaining procedures, but this did detract from what we could experience. I would suggest that at the Center, folks are given the option to go with the guide or go on their own. The luau and HA - Breath of Life show are phenomenal!! We had half a house for the audience and I was so impressed with the quality of singing and dancing, of the performers, that I started the standing ovation. Those students really deserve our appreciation!!

It's a bit far from Waikiki, but the experience can vary depending on the guide. If you have a good guide, you can hear various stories and enjoy sightseeing from the car window. I always opt for the more expensive meals, and they're not bad. The show is enjoyable even if you know what to expect. The vendors sell ice cream along the way, but it can be messy, and I worry about getting dirty if you're sitting on the aisle.

少しワイキキからは遠いですが、ガイドさんによって当たりハズレがあります。良いガイドさんなら色んな話が聞けて、車窓で観光が楽しめる時もあります。お食事は毎回高い方にしています。まぁ悪くはない感じです。ショーは内容を分かってても楽しいです。売り子さんが途中アイスクリームを売るのですが、ボタボタ落ちて通路側に座ってたら汚れそうでヒヤヒヤします。

I participated at the recommendation of my sister. It was more moving than I had expected. The seats were also quite good. Thank you very much.

妹に薦められて、参加しました。思ってた以上に感動でした。お席もかなりよくて。ありがとうございました。

Our guide was Greg. He was so sweet and genuine. As we trailed he would give us some history on the names of the cities surrounding the ranch, the different boarding houses for the various horses on the land and we saw roaming cattle and goats. A few roosters and chicken also. The girls really enjoyed themselves on the trail being surrounded by nature here. As we rode uphill and finally reached our camp, you smelled the campfire and saw a breath taking view of the ocean. The sight is amazing! The meal was strip steak, tempura shrimp, rice and mac salad. It was so delicious! And you roasted your own marshmallows for s'mores! As we rode down toward the valley, again you could see the elevation and beautiful land surrounding this huge ranch. This was our second sunset ride@ Gunstock and we will be returning again.

The PCC, dinner, luau, and show were fantastic. The Island Tour itself was the sad part. Our driver was late and then we had to rush through all the sites, having barely time for a picture or look before having to reload.

I had a wonderful time at the spacious ranch in the North, swaying gently on horseback in the pleasant breeze! The blue sky, white clouds, green grass, deep green forests, blue ocean, and the dazzling sunlight created a vivid landscape that not only left a lasting impression but also provided an incredible sense of freedom, refreshing my spirit.

Although the staff spoke only English, they were friendly and spoke slowly and kindly to us, even though we are not very proficient in English. Wrapped in a warm atmosphere, I had a very enjoyable and relaxing time, so I highly recommend it! 😊

　ノースの広～い牧場、心地良い風に吹かれて、のんびりと馬の背に揺られてきました！！
空の青色、白い雲、牧草のみどり色、森の深緑色、海の水色、眩しい太陽の日差し、鮮やかな景色が目に焼きつくだけでなく、抜群の解放感で精神的にリフレッシュでき、ホント良かったです。
　言葉は英語のみですが、あまり英語が得意でない日本人の私達にフレンドリー且つ、ゆっくり優しく話してくれ、スタッフの方はアットホームで親切でした。
　ほんわかオーラに包まれ、非常に楽しくリラックスした時間を過ごせますので、ぜひお勧めです。＾＾

I went with a mixed group of about ten people, mostly Japanese, and there were some Koreans as well. The driver was an elderly man in his 70s. He didn’t seem like a bad person, but on the bus, he made us pass around a community newspaper where he had posted about his skydiving experience. He talked about his upbringing, spiritual matters, and global warming, and honestly, I couldn't understand what he was saying at all. That kind of talk was unnecessary.

When we arrived, everyone else took the training and boarded the Cessna, and they kept descending one after another. However, for some reason, we (I didn’t jump, but my companions did) were forgotten, and even though we arrived at 9 AM, the Cessna didn’t take off until after 11 AM. (Everyone else had finished by before 10 AM.)

As other participants finished their jumps and more people arrived, I started to think we were being forgotten. I occasionally asked the elderly driver, “Are we still waiting?” but he would say things like, “It’s just the order” or “It seems it will take a while,” and we were left waiting. The driver could have asked the staff for us, but he didn’t do that for quite some time. After about an hour and a half, he finally went to ask, and we were told, “It seems the paperwork was sent to the wrong place.” In short, we had been forgotten. I should have just gone to the reception myself to ask.

While we were waiting in a daze, there was a loud “bang!” followed by staff shouting “Oh No!” and “Emergency!” Then we saw someone collapse in the grass, and an ambulance arrived. It was shocking. In the end, it turned out that the parachute didn’t open in the air, but the person had failed the landing and fell a bit. However, I don’t know the details, and it was really scary. The person didn’t move for about 30 minutes, and the staff were all in a flurry. Ultimately, the person who fell didn’t go in the ambulance but left in a private car driven by their companion, so it seemed they weren’t seriously injured. But seeing something like that before jumping was terrifying, not enjoyable.

The driver was a bit off. We were made to wait a long time on-site, witnessed an accident, and then waited even longer because of that. Finally, we were able to jump, but the weather wasn’t great, and although I hoped for the maximum altitude, they lowered it (which is understandable). The only good memory was up in the sky.

Also, because there were many clouds, we were refunded $30 for having to lower the altitude, but it was a system where you had to go to the reception to request the refund yourself, which was another point of dissatisfaction. It’s strange that they wouldn’t refund unless you asked. The office was small, and there weren’t even ten customers, so they should have been able to keep track.

After waiting for such a long time, I went to the reception to file a complaint on the way back, but as expected, it was different from Japan. They really didn’t apologize! They made excuses about the paperwork being delayed, the documents going to the wrong place, the weather, and so on. I was frustrated that I couldn’t express even half of what I wanted to say because I don’t speak much English. It was all excuses. The driver insisted that he submitted the paperwork, but the reception made a mistake, and the reception said it wasn’t their fault.

Finally, when we were returning to Waikiki, the driver said, “There were various troubles today, so we were a bit late. Sorry about that.” Everyone in the tour group fell silent at that comment. The way he said it… Then afterwards, he called what seemed to be headquarters on his cellphone and reported, “Everything went smoothly,” which irritated me even more.

The driver’s incomprehensible talk, the wait time after everyone else finished their jumps, the accident, the refund system that required you to report it yourself, and their lack of apology.

I was exhausted.

When I went skydiving in Guam, the support from start to finish was fa

１０名ほどの混載で行きました。だいたい日本人、あと韓国人もいたかな。
ドライバーさんは、御年７０過ぎのおじいさんでした。悪い人ではないんだろうけど、バスの中では、自分がスカイダイビングをして載った（自身で投稿？）地域のコミュニティー新聞みたいなやつを回覧させられ、生い立ちからスピリチュアル？みたいな宇宙の話、地球温暖化の話、等と正直何言ってるのか全くわかりませんでした。あの話はいらないです。

そして到着し、他のみなさんは講習を受けてはセスナに乗り込み、どんどん降下してこられていました。しかし、私たちは（私は飛ばなかったので同行者が）なぜか忘れられ、９時に到着したのに、セスナ出発は１１時過ぎになりました。（他の人たちは１０時前には全て終えていた。）

他の参加者が飛び終え、後から来た人もどんどん飛び終え、これは忘れられているのでは？と思い、時々、ドライバーのおじいさんに、「まだですか？」と聞いていましたが「順番だから」「まだかかるみたい」などと言って待たされ、ドライバーさんも、受付の人に聞きに行ってくれれば良いのに、それもなかなかせず。１時間半ほど経ったころにようやく聞きに行ってくれ、「書類が違うところに回されていたみたい」とか言われました。要は忘れられていたと。やっぱり黙っててはダメですね。こんなことなら自分で受付に聞きに行けば良かったです。

そうこうしてボーっと待っているところに、「ドン！」という音とともに、スタッフ達の「Oh No!」や「Emergency！」とかいう声。そして草むらに倒れる人。そしてやってきた救急車。ビックリしました。結局は上空からパラシュートが開かずに落ちたのではなく、最後の着地に失敗し、ちょっと落ちた？みたいなことだったようです。でも詳しくわからないし、本当に怖かったです。３０分くらいは倒れた状態から動かなかったし、スタッフもザワザワしていたし。結局、落ちた人は救急車に乗らず、その人の同行者が運転する自家用車で帰って行ったので、それほどの怪我ではなかったようです。でも、そんなんを見てから飛ぶなんて楽しみではなく恐怖ですよね。

ドライバーさんがちょっとアレな人。現地ではさんざん待たされ、そして事故を目の当たりにし、それによって更に待たされ、ようやく飛べたものの、天候はあまりよくないとのことで、最高高度を希望していましたが高度を下げられ（これは仕方がないことです）良い思い出は空の上だけです。

あと、雲が多いということで、高度を下げることになったから３０ドル返金してもらったのですが、それも、自分で受付に言いに行かないと返金しないシステムだったので、そこも不満です。言いに行かなければ返金しないなんておかしいですよね。現地は小さな事務所で、お客さんも１０人もいないくらいで把握しきれないわけでもないのに。

そしてそんなこんなで、あまりにも長時間待たされたので帰り際に受付に苦情を言いに行きましたが、さすが日本とは違いますね。本当に謝らない！書類が届くのが遅かったとか、書類が手違いで違うところに行っていたとか、天候がー、とかとか。あんまり英語も話せないので、言いたいことの半分も言えなかったのがくやしいです。言い訳ばっかりでした。自分は悪くないと。ドライバーさんは、自分は書類を提出したが受付が間違ったと言い張るし、受付は自分のせいじゃないと言うし。

そしてようやくワイキキに戻る時、ドライバーさんが言った「今日はいろんなトラブルがあったからね、ちょっと遅くなったけどねー。ハイすみませんでした。」という言葉に、もうツアー参加者全員沈黙でしたね。その言い方。。。
そしてその後、携帯電話で本部みたいなところに電話し、「問題なく終わりましたー。」という脳天気な報告にもイラッとしました。

ドライバーさんの意味不明な話。他の人たちは飛び終えてからの待ち時間、私たちは飛ぶ前の待ち時間。事故。申告しないと返金しないシステム。そして謝らない姿勢。

疲れました。

グアムでスカイダイブしたときは講習からすべてに至るまで素晴らしいサポートだったのになぁ。。

I wanted to take my time sightseeing in the North, but I ended up getting garlic shrimp as a souvenir and eating it by the sea. I was looking forward to things like Matsumoto Shave Ice, and I had made a list to enjoy... but I was disappointed. Horseback riding was fun!

ノースな、ゆっくり観光したいのに、ガーリックシュリンプをお土産にして、海で食べました。まつもとシェイブアイスとか、楽しみにして、リストアップして楽しんでに…ガッカリ
乗馬は楽しかったです！

I have hiked many of the popular attractions here on Oahu like Diamond Head, Manoa Falls, and Koko Head, but they have nothing as elegant as what the Huakai Iki hike has. We booked our tour, and was informed that the check in location is at the Aloha General Store. We were greeted by our wonderful guides Keola and Holly. We started venturing off on the private roads owned by Kamehameha Schools, Bishop Estate. We had excellent views of the agricultural land, the coastline of Haleiwa, the mountain ranges of both the Ko'olaus and Waianae! We had learned so much Hawaiian historical facts, such as endemic versus native species of plants and animals, special trees and plants such as the Koa tree, ohia lehua, and the strawberry guava tree. Keola and Holly are excellent guides! The one thing that I highly valued is that you can ask them anything! They will tell you if they know about it, and if they don't they will either call you or email me and give you the answer! Many other tour guides on other hikes, tend to come up with excuses, or falsified facts. But not Keola or Holly. We had great views of the swimming pools (water ponds), nice high clouds, and wonderful native plants. This is the best hiking tour that I have been on by far. I will definitely go out with north Shore Eco Tours again, for their Huakai Nui Hike! Mahalo Keola & Holly!

I learned a lot about the history of the North Shore on this tour and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. Our guides Keola and Holly were knowledgeable in Hawaiian history and culture. They have exclusive access to this trail and I highly recommend going on this tour as you will not get the chance to see the North Shore like this with anyone else. It was a real treat for me. I appreciated that Keola asked for permission to enter the hiking trail in a traditional way.The hike itself was wonderful. We saw a lovely lehua blossom on the trail! The area is home to a number of rare native trees that I will leave to you to figure the name of. This hike is not for people who are out of shape. You will get a workout on the hike! If you appreciate learning about Hawaiian culture with legitimate information shared, the natural beauty of the North Shore, and to spend a day of your vacation in nature, this hike is for you. Way better than a luau!

Since experiencing horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, I haven't been able to forget the joy of riding, so I participated in this horseback riding session. Although I was a bit anxious about this being my second time and a long ride, the result was... it was incredibly fun!!!

The horses are very well-trained and respond well. However, I think it has to be in English... (or is that just my imagination?). With just a few commands like "stop," "slowly," and "go," along with some control of the reins, they respond remarkably well. I felt that just controlling the reins alone wasn't very effective, but when I added verbal cues, they responded perfectly.

The horseback riding was so enjoyable that time flew by. I definitely want to participate again.

For North Shore tours, since there isn't much time available for riding, I highly recommend this for those who want to focus on horseback riding! That's why I give it a perfect score!!

Although we got caught in traffic along the way, thanks to our guide's quick thinking, we took a detour and avoided a bad situation. On top of that, we were able to enjoy some great sightseeing on an unexpected route.

途中、渋滞に巻き込まれたが、ガイドさんの機転で回り道をしてひどいことは回避された。その上、予定外のコースを通っていい観光ができた。

The concept is great. Transport is reliable, clean and on time. The tour guide, Harry, was entertaining and very friendly. The only thing we would suggest is that surfing be offered as one of the activities - it is after all what the area is best known for!
I would recommend this for anyone who wants an active day.

Our family of 6 adults from Brisbane Australia loved this whole day tour. Our driver / tour guide Sam picked us up from our hotel on time, & drove safely. He was so friendly and knowledgeable about Oahu, and explained all the sights on the way to the North Shore - he make the entire trip an awesome experience. He gave us a drive by & quick stop at each of the available activities before we chose them, then dropped us all to our chosen areas. 3 of us chose bike riding along the famous surfing beaches where we could stop and have beach time as we liked; the other 3 the walk through the beautiful gardens to the waterfall. Though a lovely walk, it is quite a long one, for anyone older. If you want a swim at the Falls, take cash for a compulsory life jacket hire! From there we walked back to Waimea Bay beach for a swim until our bus pick up. Our next activity for 4 of us was SUP (stand up paddle boarding) and 2 did kayaking. We LOVED this time on the water and would have liked to have a bit less time on the morning activities and more time for the afternoon ones! After, we walked through the town and sampled the Shaved Ice and some delicious lunch before boarding the bus completely satisfied with our day. We did several different tours while in Waikiki, and this was BY FAR the very best for the sightseeing, and activities on offer, plus the freedom to have our own time was fantastic. We were REALLY impressed with Sam the driver & happy to tip him well for his outstanding service - he contributed in a big way to making it the best tour during our time in Hawaii. Thank you Sam! I would highly recommend this tour, well worth it and we have great memories of our day.

I think it's rare to have a horseback riding experience in such a natural setting. The paths are not overly maintained, which adds a casual and enjoyable feel. The guide provides attentive service in Japanese as you travel from the hotel to each point. There may be variations depending on traffic conditions and whether you encounter sea turtles, but it's best to participate with a relaxed mindset, keeping those factors in mind.

こんな自然の中で乗馬体験はなかなかできないと思います。整備されすぎていない道に日常的な感じがあって楽しいです。
ホテルから各ポイントまでは、ガイドさんが日本語で丁寧に対応してくれます。
交通状態よる時間的余裕の有無、海亀と遭遇できるかなど日によって左右される部分もあると思いますが、それらを了承した上で気持ちにゆとりをもって参加されるのがベストです。

This Circle Island tour was terrific. Our guide, Dai Mar, was very knowledgeable about Oahu, the islands in general, and the places we visited. We saw the North Shore and spent time at the Banzai Pipeline, we visited Waimea Falls after a nice stroll/hike with lots of info about the area and the flora/fauna, we ate at Fumi's Shrimp Truck, and we stopped at a Macadamia farm/shop. It was fun, relaxed, and I learned a lot, plus the views were fantastic!

I've always dreamed of horseback riding, and I'm so glad I got to experience it for the first time! Since the duration was long, I was a bit anxious at first, but the person who took us was very knowledgeable about Hawaii, and I had such a fun time that it flew by! I want to go again!

ずっと乗馬に憧れていて、初体験できてよかったです！！所要時間が長かったので、最初は少し不安でしたが、連れてってくださった方がすごくハワイに詳しく楽しい時間を過ごせてあっという間でした！またいきたいです！！

I went on the night of my arrival in Hawaii. The shuttle service was clear, smooth, and punctual. The venue is located away from the city center, but thanks to the guide's various explanations about Hawaii during the ride, we arrived without getting bored. The meal and the show were separate, starting with the meal. The dining was in a buffet style (we chose the deluxe course), featuring Hawaiian dishes, and the meat and garlic shrimp were particularly delicious. When the show started, we were seated in the second row, and the energy of the dancers was palpable, making for a great spot. There were various dances set to Hawaiian music, which was entertaining. The final fire dance was impressive, and you could really feel the heat of the flames. Additionally, the ice cream served during the show's break was very tasty. After the show, you can take photos with the dancers, which makes for a nice memory. However, they leave quickly, so if you want to take pictures, be sure to hurry!

ハワイ到着日の夜に行きました。送迎は遅れることなくわかりやすくスムーズでした。会場は中心部より離れたところにあるのですが、車内の途中でガイドさんによりハワイについて説明が色々とあったため暇することなくたどり着けました。食事とショーは別々となっており、まず食事から始まりました。食事はバイキング形式となっており、（私たちはデラックスコース）、ハワイらしい料理が出ており、特にお肉とガーリックシュリンプが美味しかったです。ショーが始まり席はなんと2列目でダンサーの勢いが伝わりとても良い席でした。ハワイの音楽にのせて色々な踊りががあり面白かったです。最後のファイヤーダンスは火のあつさを感じながらとてもみごたえがありますよ。また、ショーの休憩でもらえるアイスもとても美味しかったです。ショーが終わった後はダンサーとも写真がとれるので記念になりますよ。ただ、すぐにいなくなってしまうので写真を撮りたい方は急いで下さいね。

I was able to fully enjoy places other than Waikiki. The horseback riding in the canyon is something that is hard to experience in Japan, so the kids were very satisfied. It was great that even my 9-year-old son, who is small for his age, could participate.

ワイキキ以外を、満喫できました。渓谷の乗馬は、日本でわなかなか体験することが出来ないので、子供たちが満足していました。9歳の小さな体型の息子でも参加出来て、良かったです。

We used this for our honeymoon trip!
In the morning, we were picked up at the hotel and first went to the "What Tree Is That?"! We took some photos and spent about 15 minutes there, which was just right!
After that, we headed to the Dole Plantation! Since it’s a souvenir shop, we had a nice break for the restroom!
After leaving Dole, we had some free time in the town of Haleiwa! We bought coffee, ate some garlic chicken, and also had Matsumoto Shave Ice!
Just when we were satisfied, we headed for horseback riding! It was my first experience, but the horses were cute, and we could ride leisurely through the valley! I was glad to take photos with my own camera!
After that, we went to Iri Beach and encountered a honu basking in the sun!
It was a very good tour! Next time, I want to try horseback riding in the ocean too (≧∇≦)!

P.S. Our guide, Mr. Sakai, was also a nice person!

新婚旅行で利用しました！
朝、
ホテルでピックアップしてもらい、まずはこの木なんの木へ！写真を撮ってこの木なんの木を見学して滞在時間は15分くらいでしたが、ちょうどよかったです！
その後、
ドールプランテーションへ！お土産もの屋さんなのでトイレ休憩がゆっくり出来ました！
ドールを出て、ハレイワの街でしばしの自由時間！
珈琲を買ったりフリフリチキンを食べたり、
松本シェーブアイスも食べました！
ちょうど満足した時間帯に、乗馬に向かいました！初体験でしたが、馬もかわいいしゆったりと渓谷の中を乗馬出来ました！しっかり自分のカメラで写真も撮ってもらえて良かったです！
その後は、アイリービーチに行き、甲羅干ししているホヌに遭遇！
とても良いツアーでした！次回は海の乗馬にもチャレンジしたいです（≧∇≦）

追伸 ガイドのさかいさんも良い方でした！

Best tour arrangements . Driver was very helpful and conciderate.He did his best to show us around as much as he could. Best service .

It was my first time, but I enjoyed it! The garlic shrimp I had on the North Shore was delicious! The guide's driving was a bit too fast and it was a little scary.

初めてだったけど楽しめました！
ノースショアで食べたガーリックシュリンプが美味しかったです！
ガイドさんの運転が速すぎて少し怖かったです。

On the last night in Hawaii, I participated in the Twilight Deluxe Tour. The night show, which started at 7:30, was incredibly impressive! The title "HA BREATH OF LIFE" tells a story of life being born and passed on to new generations, progressing through Tonga, Hawaii, New Zealand, Samoa, and Fiji, allowing us to enjoy different costumes, dances, chants, and songs from each culture. I particularly loved the Hawaiian performance. The Tahitian dance, with its hip movements, was also captivating, and everything was magnificent. The final fire dance was a fitting climax, and everyone gave a standing ovation.

During a break, a dessert the size of a hand was served (a giant ice cream on top of cut fruits), and those in the deluxe seats could exchange their tickets for it. Some people in the standard seats misunderstood and lined up to get ice cream, but it was said to cost $5. We couldn't finish it due to the quantity and time constraints.

Regarding transportation, the voucher mentioned the tour operator in English, but the guides spoke Japanese, which was great. On the way there, the bus provided a meaningful experience as they showed photos on a tablet while giving a tour. The time was indicated as 1 hour and 15 to 30 minutes, but it seemed to include chronic traffic congestion on the way there, while the return trip didn't take as long.

One disappointing aspect was that we, who boarded the bus first, had to wait quite a while for others to be picked up, and due to the congestion in Waikiki and traffic on the highway (an ambulance also passed), our arrival was delayed, resulting in only 40 minutes for the meal. Drinks could be ordered at our seats for free, and I thought I could take my time getting food, but in the end, I had to rush to eat. The buffet was not crowded, but it might be better to fill a plate and sit down to enjoy the main dish before leisurely moving on to dessert. However, don't forget that there is dessert during the show's intermission.

ハワイ最終日の夜にトワイライト・デラックスツアーに参加しました。
7：30から始まるナイトショーは迫力満点 ！！
HA　BREATH OF LIFEというタイトル通り命が生まれ、また新しい命に受け継がれるストーリーで順にトンガ・ハワイ・ニュージーランド・サモア・フィジーと構成が分かれて進むので異なるそれぞれの衣装とダンス、掛け声・歌が楽しめました。
私はハワイアンが一番気に入りました。腰を振るタヒチアンダンスも見応えがあり、どれも見事なものでした。最後のファイヤーダンスは締めくくりにふさわしく大盛り上がりで、皆スタンディングオベーションでした。
途中で休憩が入り片手を広げた程の大きさのデザート(カットフルーツの上に巨大なアイス)が運ばれて来てデラックス席の人はチケットに引換券が着いているので交換できました。スタンダード席の人も勘違いされアイスをもらう為、並んでいた方がいましたが、5ドルと言われていました。私達には量的にも時間的にも食べ切る事はできませんでしたが。
送迎については、バウチャー（予約券）にツアー催行会社(英語)とありましたが、ガイドをして下さった方々は日本語OKでしたし、行きのバスではタブレットで写真を見せながら観光案内までしてくれて有意義な時間でした。
時間は1時間15分~30分と案内されましたが、行きの慢性的な交通渋滞を含んだ時間みたいで、帰りはそれ程の時間はかかりませんでした。
残念だった事は行きのバスで一番先に乗車した私達は他の方のピックアップにかなりの時間待たされワイキキ界隈の混雑、高速道路の渋滞（救急車も通りました）の影響で到着が遅れた？？のか、食事時間が40分だった事です。
飲み物は席でオーダー(無料)できましたし、都度取りに行けば、と余裕で考えていた所、結果慌てて食べるはめになりました。ビュッフェは空いていましたが、一度にお皿に盛って着席しメインディッシュを楽しみ、ゆっくりテザートへ、がいいかも・・。でも、ショーの休憩時間にデザートがある事はお忘れなく。

I chose this tour because I wanted to go horseback riding by the beach and explore the town of North Shore, but based on my experiences with various other tours in Hawaii, I felt that the content for this price was frankly too high. The day started with anxiety as the tour bus did not arrive at the pickup time. It eventually showed up 10 minutes late, but the vehicle was old and dirty, and the guide spoke very quickly, making it hard to understand.

In Haleiwa, we weren't allowed to explore the town; instead, we could only take pictures in front of the food stalls while the guide bought garlic shrimp for everyone. It felt rushed throughout, and we ended up arriving back in Waikiki around 3 PM, which was a short time for a high price.

I had a coupon for garlic shrimp, and when I asked the guide to use it, he didn't cut it out or show it to the shop staff, but instead just refunded me $5. They charged the tour guests the regular price, but the guide bought it at a lower price, so he must be pocketing the difference.

For that reason, while I was satisfied with the views of the North Shore and the horseback riding by the beach, I cannot recommend this tour company.

海辺乗馬とノースの街を観光したかったため、このツアーを選んだが、ハワイで様々な他会社のツアーに参加した経験から考えると、この内容でこの値段ははっきり言って高すぎると感じた。この日は、ピックアップ時間になってもツアーのバスが来ず、不安になる朝から始まった。結局10分遅れで到着されたが、車は古くて汚いし、ガイドさんのトークは、とても早口で非常に聞き取りづらい。また、ハレイワの街では、街散策もさせてもらえず、ガーリックシュリンプをガイドさんがまとめて買う間に屋台の前で写真を撮るのみ。終始せわしなくて、結局ワイキキには15時ごろには着いていて、時間は短いのに高い。
私はガーリックシュリンプのクーポンを持っていたので、ガイドさんにこれを使って買ってくれと頼むと、そのクーポンを切り取ることもなく、お店の人にみせることもなく、5ドル返金してくれました。ツアー客からは正規の値段を取り、しかし、ガイドさんは安く買っていて、その差額はガイドさんが得ているのでしょうね。
そういうわけで、ノースの海を見たり、海辺での乗馬は景色もよくて満足だったが、このツアー会社はおすすめできません。

I have always wanted to swim with the sharks. This was an incredible experience! It was definitely a thrill seeking adventure that I would do again!

Awesome and super friendly tour guide, Keith.
Highly recommend this tour to everyone.

I had an amazing time.
If I come to Hawaii again, I want to jump again.

Everyone should try skydiving at least once in their lifetime.
I feel like I've changed just a little bit.

めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです。
またハワイに来たら飛びたいと思う。

みんなも一生に一度くらいスカイダイビングに
チャレンジしてみようぜ。
ほんの少しだけ自分が変わった気がする。

Everyone was friendly, and even though I participated alone, I had a great time. It was my second time skydiving, and the weather was clear with great visibility that day, which made it enjoyable.

皆さんフレンドリーで一人で参加したのですが、楽しかったです。
スカイダイビングは2回目でしたが、当日は晴天で見晴らしが良く、
面白かったです。
