An all Day'er

Reviewed by: Dena_shevlin@yahoo.com

Wow, where do I begin? We enjoyed the PCC alot! We were greeted at the pick up point by positive and pleasent staff. When we boarded the bus we were entertained all the way to the center. Our guide was Cuz Ken and he was very professional and entertaning. The day was full of events starting with lunch and then leading on to a series of islands. Each island had a unique cultrual display of dancing and interaction with the audience. We were busy all day, from 10:30am to 10:30pm. The lunch and dinner were very nicely organized and presented. We were so moved by the evening show "The Breath of Life", we bought the dvd! We would recommend this tour to anyone!

We went on a guided tour arrive at the Cultural Center @ 2pm. That's the way to go if you have limited time and what to navigate the park and catch as many of the mini-shows at each village as possible. Our guide set a leisurely pace, so the group and older folks can stick together.

The food at the luau was medicore. But the village experience and the night show, HA waws great!

The shuttle ride fom Wakiki was informative. It was a wonderful way to explore more of the island on limited time and budget. The Cultural Center was amazing. The staff went above and beyond expectations. The dinner was just average. I expectected a higher quality of food. Did not go back for seconds so I had more time to explore the Cultural Center.

I enjoyed the evening show and dinner. Since it was my first time, I watched with great interest. The Polynesian atmosphere was rich, and the story was easy to understand and entertaining. The stage design was particularly wonderful, and the men's dancing was lovely. I would like to go again.

Selected Ambassador package and got a guided tour as part of it. Guide was fine, but we were not able to look around the "villages." Instead, we only went from one presentation to the next, missing portions of some of them, and then it was time for the luau. Interesting, but not outstanding. The facility should open earlier in the day. For the price, you should at least have time to see most of it. Luau food was not particularly good, lunch menu was better, and the "show" during the luau left a lot to be desired. "Ha", the show afterwards was very good, however.

North Shore Skydiving Adventure Tour with Oceanview - GoJump Hawaii

14000ft!!!

Reviewed by: Birdman

Words cannot describe the adrenalin rush you experience as you free fall from 14000ft in the sky.

When you are on the airfield, it is just an exciting plane ride. But as the plane takes off and goes higher and higher until you are well above the clouds, then the reality of jumping off the airplane kicks in (as shown in the photos).

At this point, you still have a chance to change your mind and not to jump, but who does? You are strapped to the instructor, so you have no choice but to jump anyway.

The first one minute of the jump (it feels a lot shorter), it's just a free fall. The adrenalin rush you get is just amazing, and you literally shoot through the clouds. The view of the North Shore is definitely breathtaking and magnificent as well.

The landing was much smoother than I though. The instructors were very professional and safe. No wonder they hold a perfect safety record.

If you have not done skydiving before, I highly recommend you to do it. It is definitel

ノースショア・シャーク・アドベンチャー　迫力満点！至近距離で野生のサメを見学 ＜送迎可＞

Shark サメ・鮫・さめ

Reviewed by: おきみどん

I wanted to go to the North Shore to see the big waves and the surfing scenes, but instead, I joined a shark tour.

I get seasick, I don't like water, and I can't swim. I've been scared of sharks since middle school, so I usually avoid the ocean. However, I’m glad I went, even though I got seasick, dislike water, and can't swim!

Even if you're just observing, it's perfectly fine, so if you're not comfortable wearing a swimsuit, that's okay. You can enjoy seeing the fins and large shapes from the boat.

I recommend bringing an underwater camera, which you can find at ABC Stores; they sell them for around $13, while on the boat, they cost $15.

Once you're on the boat, all conversations are in English, haha. Even if you don't understand everything, please pay attention to the safety instructions. They will give you a booklet with instructions in Japanese, so make sure to read it.

The staff, both the older man and the younger guy, are really friendly. You’ll go into the water for 20 minutes at a time, and there are safety instructions for that, so be sure to check. They provide snorkeling gear, but I thought just the goggles would be enough for me since I’ve never used them before and found them cumbersome.

My friend is a very good swimmer, and after diving, he said he was close enough to the sharks that he thought about reaching out to touch them. There were definitely sharks that were over 3 meters long swimming around. They were calmly attacking the bait thrown by the staff.

Despite being someone who struggles with everything, I had a lot of fun. I was clinging to the cage because I was scared, so my arms are incredibly sore now. I’m thinking of booking this tour again when I go to Hawaii. I don’t think there are many tours like this in Japan, so I highly recommend it.

The ocean is incredibly beautiful, the scenery is great, and the sharks are huge. It was a really good experience.

I would advise against bringing small children. The same goes for anyone with heart issues; the water is cold, and seeing the sharks might be shocking. The boat moves quite fast, so if you're going during a cooler season, I recommend bringing a thick jacket.

Next time I go, I plan to practice getting used to the cold water.

It might be hard to see, but I’ll leave some photos here.

ノースショアに行きたかったのは、高波とサーフィンの情景をを見に・・・思っていたのですが、サメツアーに参加です。

私は船酔いするし水が嫌い、もちろん泳げないし中学以来サメが怖いから海に行かない奴なんですが、これは！船酔いしても水が嫌いでも泳げなくても行って良かったです。

見学だけでもＯＫですので、水着はどうも嫌と思う方でも大丈夫、船の上からヒレや大きな姿が存分に楽しめます。

ＡＢＣストアなどに水中用カメラが売っているので御持参されることをお勧めします、船内15ドル・ＡＢＣ13ドル前後。

船に乗ったら会話はすべて英語ｗ
分からないなりにも注意事項はよく聞いていてください、日本語の注意事項冊子を渡されるので読んで下さい。

スタッフのおじさんとお兄さんは凄くフレンドリーです。
1回20分海に入ります、入る時の注意事項もあるので要チェック。シュノーケルは貸してくれますが、私は水中眼鏡だけでいいなと思いました。使った事無いので邪魔で邪魔で。

友人は泳ぎがかなり上手いため潜水したあと、「手を伸ばして触ろうかと思った」ほど近くまでサメがよってきています。　本当に３mはゆうにある子達がウヨウヨ。
おじさんが投げる餌に悠然と襲い掛かってました。

何もかも苦手な私がなんかとっても楽しかった、確かに苦手だったので檻にしがみ付いていた為、腕が物凄く筋肉痛です。ハワイに行くときはまた予約しようかなと思います。
日本ではなかなかこういったツアーは無いと思うのでお勧めです。

海が物凄くきれい、景色も良い、サメもでかい
とてもいい経験でした。

小さいお子さんは止めた方がいいでしょう。
心臓が悪い方も同様、水が冷たいしサメ見たらショックかも。
船がかなり高速で動くので気温が低い時期は厚手の上着を持参された方がいいと思います。


今度行く時は冷たい水につかる練習して行こうと思います。

分かりづらいですが、写真おいておきます。

Enjoying the North Shore! ノースショア満喫♪

Reviewed by: karya

I participated in a seaside horseback riding plan with my mother on January 20th.

On this day, there were four participants in total: the two of us at the seaside and two in the valley.

Unfortunately, we couldn't stop by Moanalua Gardens as it was under construction, but we made a special stop at the Healing Stones in Wahiawa before heading to Dole Plantation. We had a good amount of time there, allowing us to leisurely enjoy the famous Dole Whip pineapple soft serve.

We also tried our hand at turtle watching on the North Shore beach, but the waves were high that day, and no turtles came ashore.

At 11 AM, we had lunch in Haleiwa. Our guide took us to the restaurant we wanted, and we had garlic shrimp at MACKY'S. The lemon pepper flavor was refreshing and highly recommended.

At noon, we dropped off the two participants from the valley horseback riding plan at Happy Trails, and we headed to Turtle Bay Resort, the seaside horseback riding point. Luckily, we spotted a whale from the car window during our drive!

Our horseback riding experience started at 12:30 PM, and during this time, it was just the two of us. We were lucky! I have some riding experience, but it was my mother's first time, so we decided to join this beginner-friendly plan. However, I found it a bit lacking for experienced riders since we weren't allowed to canter. Still, the scenery was beautiful with both bush and seaside views, so we could enjoy the atmosphere.

The ride was conducted at a walk to a brisk walk, which I think would be perfectly fine for beginners or those with little experience, and I was very satisfied with the content. There were some ups and downs along the way. The horses seemed well-trained, making them very easy to ride.

For the seaside horseback riding, the riding instructions were briefly explained by our guide/driver in the car, and there were none at the site. We were immediately assigned our horses and got on. Because of this, we had a solid 45 minutes of riding!

I think it was a great tour in terms of being able to enjoy horseback riding casually.

As a side note, one of the participants in the valley horseback riding fell off while dismounting and ended up muddy when we went to pick them up. For those going in the future, please enjoy yourselves without letting your guard down until the end!

母と２人で海辺乗馬プランに参加(1/20)しました。

この日の参加者は私たち海辺２人＋渓谷２人の計４人。

残念ながらモアナルアガーデンは工事中ということで立ち寄ることができず、今回は特別にワヒアワのヒーリングストーンに寄って、ドールプランテーションへ。しっかり滞在時間を取ってくださったので、名物のパイナップルソフトクリームのドールホイップをゆっくり食べることができました。
ノースショアのビーチでウミガメウォッチングにもチャレンジしましたが、この日は波が高くて浜辺に上がってくる奇亀はいませんでした。。
１１時にハレイワでランチ。希望のお店に連れて行ってくださったので、ＭＡＣＫＹ’Ｓでガーリックシュリンプを食べました。レモンペッパー味がさっぱりでおすすめです。
１２時に渓谷乗馬プランの２人をハッピートレイルズで降ろして、私たちは海岸乗馬ポイントであるタートルベイリゾートへ。移動中、運よく車窓からクジラが観測できました！

１２時３０分から乗馬体験。この時間帯は私たち２人の貸し切りでした。ラッキーです☆
私は乗馬経験者ですが、母は初体験でしたので、今回はこの初心者向けのプランに参加することにしたわけですが、やはりどーしても経験者には物足りないです。。駈歩はやらせてもらえませんからね。が、ブッシュあり海辺ありで、景色はとても良いので雰囲気だけは楽しめます。
常歩~速歩程度で行われるので、初めての人や経験の少ない人には問題なく、大満足の内容になってると思いました。わりとアップダウンはあります。馬はよく調教されているようでしたので、とても乗りやすかったです。
なお、海辺乗馬の場合は、乗馬の注意事項は車内でガイド兼運転手さんから簡単に説明があっただけで、現地ではまったくなし。いきなり馬がセレクトされ、騎乗する流れでした。その分、４５分しっかり乗れます！！

気軽に乗馬が楽しめる点においては、とても良いツアーだったと思います。

余談ですが、渓谷乗馬の１人が下馬する時に落ちてしまったそうで、迎えに行った時に泥んこになってました。これから行かれる方は最後まで気を抜かずに楽しんで来てください。

絶景スカイダイビング　一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動！ビデオ＆写真撮影付きプランあり　by ゴージャンプハワイ＜送迎付き＞

Definitely diving over other tours. 他のツアーよりも絶対ダイビング

Reviewed by: kimu21

I came to Hawaii for the first time in my life and experienced skydiving for the first time as well.

The day before, I explored Oahu, trying B-class gourmet food, watching a Polynesian show, and visiting the popular Ala Moana Shopping Center. I was hesitant about diving because it seemed scary. However, once I tried it, there was no comparison.

The clear blue sky, the beautiful ocean, the round Earth, and the free fall from 4,000 meters that I've never experienced before were all incredible. It was the best experience, even better than any attraction. I used to have a fear of heights, but the only scary moment was right before jumping; after that, I could fully enjoy the scenery.

However, the moment the parachute opened, I felt a strong pull that was quite painful, and I also experienced some parachute sickness.

Additionally, the transportation was disorganized, and I was made to sign a waiver without any explanation, leaving me unsure of when things would start after arriving, so I rated the staff's response ★★★.

But beyond that, you will experience something you’ve never had before, so if you come to Hawaii, make skydiving your top priority.

There are two diving companies. Insurance does not cover anything, and it's all at your own risk, but I recommend Pacific Skydiving Center.

P.S. Photos were $125, DVDs were $160, and both together were $190. It was worth more than the price, so I requested both.

生まれて初めてハワイに来て、生まれて初めてスカイダイビングを経験しました。

前日までは、オアフ島1周してB級グルメを食べたり、ポリネシアンショーをみたり、人気のアラモアナショッピングセンターに行ったりしました。ダイビングは怖いので迷っていました。しかし、やってみたら比べものになりません。

雲ひとつない真っ青な空、きれいな海、丸い地球、そして経験したことのない4000mからのフリーフォール。どんなアトラクションよりも最高です。私は高所恐怖症でしたが、飛ぶ瞬間だけが怖いだけであって、あとは景色を堪能できます。

ただ、パラシュートを開いた瞬間はかなり引っ張られて痛かったですし、パラシュート酔いもしました。

また、送り迎えの車が乱雑でしたし、誓約書を何も言わずに書かされたり、ついてからいつ始まるか分からない状態でしたので、スタッフの対応は★3つとさせていただきました。

でも、それ以上に味わったことがない事を体験しますので、ハワイに来たら真っ先にスカイダイビングをしてください。

あとダイビング会社が２つあります。保険は利かず全て自己責任ですが、パシフィックスカイダイビングセンターをおすすめします。

PS:写真は125ドル、DVDは160ドル、両方は190ドルでした。価格より価値がありましたので、両方をお願いしました。

Reviewed by: ryuukoubou&GINGA

The show at the Polynesian Cultural Center is top-notch and excellent. University students work as staff, and everyone is passionately involved, creating a wonderful atmosphere throughout the facility. It was great to experience the cultures of various Polynesian islands all at once.

I participated in a plan that included a dinner show centered around Hawaiian hula during the Luau Workshop, which lasts for an hour. This is the only course where you can enjoy a show while having dinner. They showcase Polynesian cooking methods that you won't see anywhere else, including the imu (whole roasted pig). However, I couldn't eat the roasted pig. I wonder where it went after it was cooked. I assume it went to the dining area for those with higher-tier plans.

Afterward, the authentic show features a fantastic story called “‘Hā’ Breath of Life” night show. Fathers who are dedicated to parenting will surely be moved by this show. I was very touched. The Hawaiian show emphasizes storytelling. However, I think I should have participated in a plan with better food than the Luau Workshop. I highly recommend visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center.

ポリネシア文化センターのショーはトップクラスで良いです。大学の学生の方がスタッフとして勤務されていますが皆さん情熱的に携わっていてここの施設全体がとてもいい雰囲気で包まれています。各ポリネシアの文化を一度に触れられてとても良かったです。「ルアウワークショップのプランのみ食事の際にハワイのフラダンスを中心に繰り広げられる１時間のディナーショーを楽しめます。全コース中で唯一、ディナーを食べながらショーをご覧頂けます。他では見られないポリネシアの調理方法、イム（豚の丸焼き）を公開。」というものに参加しましたがこの豚の丸焼きは食べることができません。焼かれた後どこに行ったのでしょう。きっともっと上位プランの方の食事の所へ行ったのだと思います。本格的なショーはその後すばらしいストーリー性のある“‘ハァ’ブレス・オブ・ライフ”ナイトショーが見れます。子育てに一所懸命な父親の方はこのショーはきっと感動するとおもいます。私はとても感動しました。ハワイアンショーはストーリー性が大事ですね。ただルアウワークショップよりお食事の良いプランに参加したほうが良かったかなと思います。ポリネシア文化センターはぜひ行って見てください。

Horseback riding is the best. 乗馬は最高

Reviewed by: NEKO

This time, I participated in this tour for horseback riding. It includes sightseeing at "This Tree, What Tree" and the North Shore, so it feels like a good deal. On the day of the tour, there were three groups with eight people, all of whom went horseback riding in the valley. It was a homey tour, and we were able to bond with the other participants.

Now, let me comment on the main horseback riding experience. It was our first time riding. I was a bit anxious because it was mentioned in the previous posts that the riding lecture would be in English. Happy Train is a small ranch run by a couple, and they explained everything with great enthusiasm using gestures, so it was easy to understand. In fact, the horses were well-trained, and we didn't need to give any commands at all.

We rode along a hilly mountain path, with the ranch's wife leading the way in a single file. The husband followed at the back. The ranch's dog (a Border Collie) also came along. It was mostly in the forest, and surprisingly, it wasn't too hot. There were a couple of spots where the view opened up, and we could see the sea of the North Shore. Since the horses are polo-style, we held the reins with one hand, allowing us to take photos (with a compact camera) with the other hand. The ranch staff also took photos for us along the way, so definitely bring a camera. I brought a waist pouch, but you can also borrow one.

The horses were really well-trained and walked in a straight line. They stopped automatically when the horse in front stopped, which made it quite easy. My wife's horse was unique, as it tended to walk on the edges and even pushed into the bushes at times... but that was quite funny.

I think even a six-year-old would be fine with this. However, since they are animals, one must not let their guard down, and we had to sign a waiver.

An hour and a half passed in no time. The ranch's wife shared various stories about the trees and nature while we were riding, and I really wished I could speak more English.

So, while experienced riders might find it a bit lacking, I believe it is a fantastic activity for beginners or those like us trying it for the first time. Both my wife and I consider this the number one memory of our trip to Hawaii.

今回、乗馬目的でこのツアーに参加しました。「この木なんの木」やノースショアの観光もついているのでお得感はあります。当日の参加者は３グループ８人で、全員渓谷での乗馬でした。アットホームなツアーで参加者で打ち解けることができました。
メインの乗馬についてコメントします。わたしたちにとって初めての乗馬です。あらかじめこちらの書き込みで乗馬のレクチャーは英語でと書かれていたので不安もありました。ハッピートレインは夫婦でやっておられる小さい牧場なのですが、夫婦が一生懸命に手振り身振りを交えながらレクチャーしてくださるのでよくわかりました。というより、馬がよく調教されていて、こちらが指示する必要がまったくなかったです。
アップダウンが結構ある山道を牧場の奥さんを先頭に一列になって進んでいきます。旦那さんが最後尾で付いてくれます。牧場の犬（ボーダーコリー）もついて来ていました。ほとんど森林の中で思ったより暑くなかったです。２か所ほど視界が開けていてノースショアの海が見えました。ポロスタイルの馬ですので片手で手綱を持ちますのでもう片方の手で写真（コンパクトカメラで）を撮ることができます。また牧場の方が途中で写真を撮ってくれますので是非カメラを持参してください。わたしはウエストポーチを持って行きましたが、貸してももらえます。
本当によく調教されていて一列できっちり歩いてくれます。前が止まると勝手に止まってくれますし、ちょっと物足りないくらい楽でした。妻の馬だけユニークな馬で、はしっこばかり歩いたり、ブッシュに突っ込んでいくとかありましたが…。それはそれで大笑いでした。
これなら、６歳の子でも大丈夫だと思います。しかし、動物のことですので油断は禁物ですし誓約書も書かされます。
１時間半あっというまに時間が経ちました。牧場の奥さんが乗馬中も色々と木や自然の話をしてくださるので、もっと英語が話せたらよかったとつくづく思いました。
ということで乗馬の経験者の方には少し物足りないと思いますが、わたしたちのような初挑戦や、初心者の方には大満足のアクティビティだと思います。妻も私も今回のハワイ旅行の思い出ナンバー１です。

I finally went on the Shark Adventure. There were three groups, including us, but the others seemed cramped as they entered in groups of four at the same time. We had more than enough time, I think it was about 15 to 20 minutes, and they let us stay until we said we were done. Our hands and feet were sticking out of the cage, which added to the tension. The staff handled everything in a calm manner, so those who want to enjoy themselves won't have any issues. I was concerned about seasickness, but I drank two strong ones from Japan, so it wasn't too bad. We drove from Waikiki, and the route was comfortable without getting lost, but on the way back, I was definitely sleepy and tired, so please be careful.

念願のシャークアドベンチャーにいきました。外国の方と我々も含めて３組でしたが、他の方は４人同時に入ったりで狭そうでした。時間は十分すぎるほどあり１５分から２０分くらいだったと思いますが、こちらからもう結構だと言うまでさせてくれます。檻から手足ははみ出るし緊迫感はあります。スタッフは淡々とこなしている感じですので自分たちで楽しむ方は問題ありません。懸念された船酔いも日本から強力なのを２本飲みましたので差ほどではありませんでした。レンタカーでワイキキから行きましたが道も迷うことなく快適でしたが帰りはさすがに眠く疲れますので気をつけてください。

ノースショア（ハレイワ）観光　ハレイワタウンで3時間の自由散策＋ドールプランテーション！海辺の絶景を楽しめる乗馬付き(70分)プランあり＜1日／送迎付き＞

"Definitely" 是非

This was my first time renting a van for sightseeing, and it was amazing! The driver taught us various things and seemed to have a hard time accommodating our requests, but he handled everything with a smile, and we were very satisfied.

今回初めてバンを貸し切っての観光をしましたが、最高でした！ドライバーの方もいろいろなことを教えてくれながら私たちのわがままを聞いてもらい大変だったように思いますが、笑顔で対応してくれとても満足しました。

Holiday 休日

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I go to Hawaii every year for a work trip. I always participate in horseback riding, and this time I enjoyed a long ride. However, it was disappointing that the instructor only spoke English, so I couldn't communicate. I feel that if we could have conversed, it would have made for an even more enjoyable holiday.

毎年ハワイへ職場の旅行で行っています。その中乗馬は欠かさず参加していますが、今回は長時間の乗馬が出来て楽しかったです。ですが、インストラクターが英語のみだったのでコミュニケーションが出来ずに残念でした。会話ができればもっと楽しい休日をおくれたように思います。

We participated as a couple. On the day we joined, there were a total of 11 people in 5 groups. The driver entertained us with various stories until we reached the North Shore. We stopped by the Dole Plantation, which had many original products, and we had a great time even without shopping.

Although lunch was served quite early, around 10:30, all participants were surprised and said, "Already??" However, for us, who hadn't had breakfast, it was just the right time. Since it was Sunday, there was a food stall selling Huli Huli chicken, so we had lunch there. Nearby, there was also a famous shaved ice shop, allowing us to enjoy ourselves thoroughly before heading to horseback riding.

When we arrived at the ranch for horseback riding, the instructions were only in English, which was a bit confusing, but the ranch staff did their best to explain in English, so we were able to enjoy horseback riding throughout. Unlike Japanese ranches, we could ride for 90 minutes, which was very satisfying. I definitely want to participate again on my trip to Hawaii in two years, but since lunch costs are not included, I hope the tour price will be around $80 to $100.

夫婦二人で参加しました。
私たちが参加した日は、５グループ合計１１人でした。
ドライバーさんはノースショアーへ着くまで、色々な話で楽しませてくれました。
途中ドールプランテーションへ寄りましたが、オリジナル商品が沢山あり、買い物しなくても楽しめました。
１０時半過ぎという早い時間に昼食となりましたが、参加者全員が「もう？？」と驚いていましたが、朝食を取っていなかった私たちにはちょうど良い時間でした。
日曜日ということもあり、フリフリチキンの屋台が出ていたので、私たちはそちらでランチにしました。
近くには有名なかき氷屋さんもあり乗馬へ行くまでも存分に楽しむことができました。
乗馬する牧場(～!)へ着くと、英語のみの説明になり、戸惑いましたが、牧場のお母さんが英語ながら一生懸命説明してくれたので、終始楽しく乗馬できました。
日本の牧場と違い９０分も乗馬できるので、非常に満足できます。
再来年のハワイ旅行でも是非参加したいと思いますが、昼食代などが含まれていないので、ツアー代金が８０~１００ドルほどになると良いなと思いました。

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Great experience

Reviewed by: Marina

The crew was great and we had a good amount of time to view the sharks (usually I think these activities end too quickly, but I was very happy here). Unfortunately, when I went the waves were really strong and I got bruised and sea sick being tossed around, but I think if the weather was more calm, it would've been really amazing. I would definitely do it again. I do, however, wish that the cage was larger or that they would let no more than 2 people in at a time because there's not that much space to maneuver, and if there are waves you're always running into the other people. The sharks are very graceful and beautiful and do come rather close so that you can get some great visuals, but for those that are afraid, they never come close enough for one to feel unsafe. In fact, they don't seem particularly interested in the people as much as they are in just swimming around. I didn't purchase a video, but I think I would next time, just because it was very difficult to get good pictures w
