We took the tour on the first day after arriving and it was too much too soon. I am sure we would have enjoyed it more had we been rested but we were worn out.
The tour does go to all of the spots but you get very little time at any of them and the stop at the Dole Plantation is not long enough to do much of anything.

The Hi-light of our trip. The crew was AWESOME. They were very informative as well as entertaining. Even though we were in the ocean with a lot of sharks we still felt completely safe. This is the closest you can come face to face with nature w/o fearing for your life (well, almost - it is a little scary at first). The sharks are amazing animals. Can't put into words what its like to look a shark in the eye. You have to see it for yourself. We were in the cage for about 20-30 minutes, but it seemed like an hour and there was plenty of room. If you tend to get sea sick just take a pill and do it anyway. You won't regret it. Definately get the DVD, its about $65 and worth every penny. I'm pretty cheap myself, but knew I couldn't pass the DVD up. Totally worth it. Just DO IT and don't forget your underwater cameras.

I participated with two friends, and we had a great time. We were able to experience Hawaiian culture, and I was very moved by the students performing so passionately in the evening show. I was also very happy to hear that the ticket price we paid goes to charity.
I felt very uplifted.
If you go to Hawaii, this is definitely a must-visit! I highly recommend it.

I approached this with the determination to risk my life. That said, I wasn't scared at all, so anyone can take on the challenge. When I fell, it was more painful for my ears than it felt good. It might be a good idea to practice equalizing your ears...
The view during the dive was amazing, but I was really moved by the scenery I saw while ascending in the airplane (we flew with the door open).
Since it had rained the day before, it seemed there were a lot of participants, and the waiting time was long, which made others tired. However, I enjoyed taking pictures of various flowers and the parachutes coming down while I waited, so it wasn't a problem for me.
The DVD and photos cost $200 if you order both, but since a dedicated photographer is included, I thought it was a reasonable price despite being high. It has become a great memory.
命を捨てる覚悟で臨んできました。といっても別に全然怖くはないので誰でもチャレンジできます。
落ちるときは、気持ちいいよりも耳が痛かったです。耳抜きの練習をしておいたほうがいいかも。。。
ダイブ中の眺めも最高ですが、飛行機で上昇していくときに見える景色に感動しました(ドア開けたまま飛んでます)
前日が雨だったため、参加人数が多かったらしく、待ち時間が長くてほかの人はくたびれてましたが、私は待ってる間、いろんな花や降りてくるパラシュートの写真を撮って楽しんでいたので苦になりませんでした。
DVDと写真は両方たのむと200ドルかかりますが、専属カメラマンが付くので、高いですけど妥当な値段だと思って撮ってもらいました。いい思い出になっています。

I was able to experience the cultures of various Polynesian countries. On the deluxe tour, we explored the park in a small group. The female tour guide was very dedicated and left a good impression. We watched shows from Hawaii, New Zealand, Samoa, and Tonga, but the show from Tonga was particularly interesting. The post-dinner show, "Ha: Breath of Life," was breathtaking. It was a powerful performance that you wouldn't believe was put on by amateurs (students). The story allowed us to reaffirm the cultures of the countries we learned about during the day, and it made me want to visit the attractions we couldn't get to. The fire dance was also impressive. We were even able to visit the backstage where the students were preparing for the show, which was very moving. The dinner was delicious, and the ice cream we received during the show was also tasty, making it a great value for the cost. There are more highlights than I expected, so if you're renting a car, I recommend taking your time to explore from the opening. However, even spending a whole day, it's quite challenging to see all the village shows. It would be good to prioritize the villages you're interested in or the shows recommended by the tour guide when planning your schedule. The tickets are valid for three days (with paid parking), so for those staying longer, it might be a good idea to split the visit over two days. Through this tour, I became interested in Polynesian countries other than Hawaii. I immediately started looking up how to get to Tonga. I want to visit the Polynesian Cultural Center again.
ポリネシアのさまざまな国の文化に触れることができました。デラックスツアーでは少人数のグループで園内をまわりました。ツアーガイドの女性も一生懸命で好感が持てました。ハワイ、ニュージーランド、サモア、トンガ、のショーを見ましたが、なかでもトンガのショーは面白かったです。ディナー後のショー(ハァ:ブレスオブライフ)は圧巻でした。アマチュア(学生)が演じているとは思えないほど迫力ある舞台でした。昼のうちに園内で学んだ諸国の文化を再確認できるストーリーになっており、回りきれなかったアトラクションへ「行ってみたい」という気持ちにさせられました。ファイアーダンスも見事でした。学生達がショーの準備をしているバックステージへもお邪魔することができ、胸が熱くなりました。ディナーもおいしく、ショーの途中でもらえるアイスクリームもおいしくてコストパホーマンスは高いと思います。思ったより見所いっぱいなので、レンタカーの方は開園からのんびり見てまわるほうがよいと思います。ただし、一日いてもすべての村のショーを見てまわるのはとてもたいへんです。興味のある村、もしくは、ツアーガイドオススメのショーを優先してスケジュールを組むとよいでしょう。チケットは3日間有効になるので(有料駐車場も)、滞在期間の長い方は2日に分けてみるのもよいと思います。今回のツアーを通して、ハワイ以外のポリネシアの国に興味を持ちました。さっそくトンガへの行き方を調べました。ポリネシア文化センター、また行きたいです。

I chose the canyon course, and we really just went a little way up a "mountain." The ups and downs were quite steep, which kept things interesting. We were able to ride for a solid hour and a half, so I felt very satisfied. The horses were well-trained and smart, allowing even beginners to feel safe and comfortable. My mother, who is in her sixties, seemed very satisfied as well.
The staff only spoke English, so it would have been even more enjoyable if I could speak English... The nuts they showed us with gestures were delicious! Thank you very much!

At an altitude of 4,000 meters... falling as if from above Mount Fuji.
For the first few seconds, there's a feeling similar to a roller coaster, but once you get used to it, you start to enjoy the free fall time a bit more.
Hmm, it's a feeling like nothing you've experienced before, and you definitely won't be disappointed.
By the way, I highly recommend getting the DVD and photos! You can enjoy them even after returning home!

Three miles offshore. The depth is 40 to 50 meters!!
Looking down from the stopped boat, I saw a dark shadow...
Could it be already? As I strained my eyes and looked around again, I spotted not just one or two, but about ten sharks visible from the surface...
It was more awe-inspiring than scary.
I often saw the dorsal fins breaking the surface on TV, and it was exactly the same scene.
Now, into the cage!
I was astonished by the deep blue sea and the sharks.
I think I had a rare experience. It's a bit pricey, but it's worth it.

I was nervous at the moment of jumping out of the Cessna, but the beautiful scenery as far as the eye can see is something only those who dive can truly understand.
There wasn't much explanation, but the guide who dove with us was kind, so I didn't feel anxious.

We headed out to the shark cage at 7:30 am and sadly no sharks. The crew was as disappointed as we were and let us know that if we didn't have a shark experience they would reschedule us or refund our money. Lucky for us there was a cancellation on a boat later that morning - so we headed out again - and we were not disappointed. 5 - 6 sharks circled the cage the entire time we were on the water. Nothing like looking a shark in the eye! Fabulous time and would recommend it to anyone wanting to have an up close and personal experience with a shark(s).

Until now, I always made sure to include scuba diving wherever I went, but this time I experienced horseback riding in the canyon with my wife. We went from Honolulu to the North Shore with a tour company guide, who was very knowledgeable. They provided detailed explanations of the famous landmarks we saw along the way, making the journey to our destination enjoyable.
Previously, I had only passed by Hawaii's sacred sites, the school where President Obama attended, the hospital where he was born, and other essential facts that one must know to have a conversation. (I wonder if we just got lucky with the guide and tour company?)
As mentioned in the tour description, after the pickup, we stopped at places like Moanalua Gardens, Dole Plantation, Turtle Beach, and explored Haleiwa Town. I thought we might not have enough time, but once I tried horseback riding, it felt like it was worth it.
When we arrived at Happy Trails (the horseback riding ranch?), the owner, who seemed to be in charge, explained how to ride and control the horse with plenty of humor and gestures. (The explanation was all in English, so it might be difficult for those without language skills.) However, the tour guide explained the basic operating methods in Japanese before we arrived, so there was no need to worry at all. Additionally, the guide was there to assist with the owner's explanations, so I felt reassured.
The horses were well-trained, and the owner selected the horses based on compatibility with the riders. (I wonder if that's true?) After we set off, we rode through the woods and up and down the canyon, experiencing just the right amount of stress and thrill.
== It was so much fun!!! == After passing through the canyon, we reached an open area with a breathtaking view of the ocean below, which was a truly moving moment. == It was really enjoyable!!! == My wife is eager to bring our grandchild (who is in fourth grade) next time to let them experience horseback riding as well.
== This tour really helped me relieve my daily stress, and I am filled with gratitude towards the ranch owner and the tour company. ==
今まで、どこに行くのでも必ずスキューバダイビングは外せなかったのですが、今回渓谷乗馬を妻とともに体験しました。
ホノルルからノースショアーへ、ツアー会社のガイドの元行ったのですが、ガイドの人が博学で、途中車窓からの眺められた名所旧跡などの説明を細かく案内してくれ、飽きずに目的地まで着くことができました。
今までは、単に通り過ぎていたハワイの聖地や、現オバマ大統領の出身校、生まれた病院、アメリカ大統領になるための必須条件etc、まさに知識を取り入れておかなくては話せないような事柄を案内してくれたのです。(ガイド・ツアー会社に当たったのですかね?)
このツアーは案内説明にもあるようにピックアップ後、モアナルガーデン、ドールプランテーション、海がめビーチ、ハレイワ・タウン散策など途中で立ち寄ります。参加して、ちょっと時間が足らないかなと思いがちでしたが、乗馬体験をしてみるとしょうがないような気がしました。
ハッピートレイズ(乗馬体験場所の牧場?)に着くとオーナーと思われる人が乗馬のやり方、操り方法をユーモアたっぷりジェスチャーをまじえて説明してくれます。(説明は全て英語です、語学力のない方は無理かな?)・・・・・・・なんて言いません。
現地に着くまでにツアーガイドの人が日本語で最低限度の操作方法を説明してくれますので、まったく心配ありません
さらにオーナーの説明に対してもガイドの方がかたわらで説明してくれるので心配ありませんでした。
馬については調教された馬で、オーナーが乗る人の相性を確かめながら馬を選んでくれているとの事でした。(ほんとかね?)
出発した後、馬とともに林の中や渓谷を上ったり降りたり適度なストレスとスリルを味わいながら乗馬したのです。
==とっても楽しいよ!!!==
途中渓谷を抜けると開けた場所で、眼下に海を望み感動の一場面を得ました。==本当に楽しいよ!!!==
妻は今度は孫(小4)も連れて来てこの乗馬体験をさせるのだと張りきっています。
==本当に日ごろのストレスを発散させてもらったツアーで、牧場のオーナーやツアー会社に感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです。==

This was my first time participating. My high school child, who tends to be lazy about everything, was with me, but they didn't get bored or fall asleep and watched until the end. They were a bit sleepy at the beginning, though...
However, the food at Gateway was not great. I think having too high expectations is not good.
The biggest complaint I had was that it said, "You can participate by handing the voucher to the Japanese staff," but I couldn't find where the Japanese staff were. When I asked someone nearby, they gave a vague explanation, and I ended up wandering around without really understanding, which was exhausting.
By the way, if you go by rental car, the parking fee is $8.

I participated this time because I wanted to experience horseback riding.
For beginners, there might be some anxieties like, "Will I be able to ride by myself?" or "What if I can't ride well and disturb others?!"
However, the horses used for this activity are well-trained for polo, and even someone like me, who is a beginner and not very confident in my athletic abilities, was able to enjoy it immensely.
All the necessary precautions regarding horseback riding are explained clearly in Japanese by the guide, so even those who are anxious about their English can participate with peace of mind.
Additionally, during the ride, the ranch staff provide fun support in very simple English, making the hour feel very short and giving a great sense of security.
The great thing about the mountain course is that you can enjoy the ups and downs of a course that you wouldn't typically find in Japan while feeling a pleasant breeze. Also, the view of the North Shore from the top of the mountain was fantastic.
Beyond the horseback riding experience, I think the guiding skills of this activity are worth experiencing. They make sure you enjoy everything on the way to and from the ranch, including Dole Plantation, turtle watching at Turtle Beach, and lunch at a non-frozen shrimp stand. Moreover, they can drop you off at your desired shopping area (DFS, Ala Moana) on the way back, allowing you to make the most of your day.
I participated alone this time and had some anxieties, but the guide provided excellent follow-up, so I was able to enjoy it very much.
今回は乗馬の体験をしたくて参加しました。
乗馬初心者の方は、
”自分一人で乗れるだろうか?”
”上手く乗れなくて他の方に迷惑をかけてしまうのではないか?!”
などの不安を多少なりともお持ちかと思います。
しかし、このアクティビティで使用される馬はポロ用にしっかり調教されており、初心者でかつあまり運動神経に自信がない私でも非常に楽しむことが出来ました。
乗馬に関する各注意事項は、ガイドの方がしっかり日本語で説明してくださるので、英語に不安を覚える方でも安心して参加することが出来ます。
また、乗馬中は牧場の方が非常に簡単な英語で楽しくフォローしてくれるので一時間がとても短く感じますし、安心感も非常にありました。
山コースの良いところは、日本では考えられないアップダウンがあるコースを気持ちがいい風を浴びながら楽しめるところです。
また、山の上からノースショアを一望できて最高でした。
乗馬体験以外にも、このアクティビティのガイド力は一度体験してみる価値はあると思います。
ドールプランテーション、亀海岸での亀ウォッチング、冷凍ではないシュリンプ屋台での昼食等、牧場までの行き帰り全てを無駄なく満喫させてくれます。
また、帰りは希望のショッピングエリア(DFS、アラモアナ)で車を下してもらうという希望にもこたえて頂けるので一日を無駄なく満喫することができます。
今回は一人参加で不安もありましたが、ガイドの方がしっかりフォローアップしてくれるので非常に楽しむことができました。

Horseback riding was amazing. I was able to ride for a long time, and instead of flat terrain, we went up and down mountains, which was a rare experience that I can't have in Japan.
At the turtle beach, I didn't see any turtles basking on the shore that day, but I discovered some turtles in the water! My excitement shot up instantly.
The shrimp I had for lunch was delicious. My sister, who was with me, said it was "the best" during her stay in Hawaii.

Still, it was an invaluable experience. After returning home, my PC crashed, and I lost the photos of the sharks, which made me weep. I want to participate again.

This was the most fun we had on Oahu. Captain Dave and Crewman Chris are very professional, knowledgeable and entertaining. We felt safe in their capable hands...which was especially important, given the fact that this is an incredibly thrilling activity! Sooooo scary....being in the water, surrounded by numerous sharks of varying size (basically bigger than you, and much faster too!) certainly makes the adrenaline pump!
We bought the DVD of our experience, and we appreciate the fact that it is your choice to have your experience taped or not, and is therefore more personal and not 'pushed' at you for purchase. Just got home last night, and immediately watched it!
