It was my first time in Hawaii, so I signed up for the Haleiwa sightseeing and Dole Plantation tour. The guide was very friendly, making the tour enjoyable. For lunch, the guide took us to eat the recommended shrimp, which was incredibly delicious and had no unpleasant smell at all! It was truly tasty. At the Dole Plantation, the scenery while riding the pineapple train was fantastic. The ice cream was also delicious. The weather was great, making it a perfect day. Thank you very much.

はじめてのハワイでしたので、ハレイワ観光＆ドールプランを申込みしました。
ガイドさんが気さくな方でしたので、楽しい観光となりました。
ランチではガイドさんオススのメエビを食べに連れていってもらいましたが、これがまたとても美味しく臭みもなし！！本当に美味しかったです。ドールプランテーションではパイナップル列車に揺られながら見る景色は最高でしたよ。アイスも美味しかった。また天気もよく最高の1日でした。ありがとうございました。

I had a pleasant horseback riding experience surrounded by a variety of beautiful scenery, including along the coast, in the bushes, and around the pond. My parents, who are in their 60s, were initially a bit nervous but ended up having a great time. It's a given that the horse will poop or stop to graze along the way. Our guide, Katie, was very kind, and the horses were gentle and well cared for. I highly recommend it!

海岸沿いやブッシュの中、池の周りなどバラエティに富んだ景色の中で気持ちよく乗馬を体験できました。最初はおっかなびっくりだった60代の両親も大変楽しんでいました。途中で馬がフンをしたり道草を食ったりするのはお約束。案内してくれたケイティはとても親切でしたし、馬も穏やかでよく世話されていました。オススメです！

Just thinking that my 82-year-old mother joined this optional tour simply because she loves horses still gives me butterflies. It was truly a canyon horseback riding plan, just as described. We skillfully navigated narrow paths that barely fit the width of the horses. It's an experience I still can't believe. I wonder how we managed to return safely after walking through such a canyon with a beginner like me. We lined up for a full hour, walking slowly, but there were slopes, narrow paths, and curves, and it seemed my mother was scared until the end. She was desperately talking to the horse to keep it moving. Although they never acted up, being natural creatures, they sometimes stopped to eat grass by the side or just halted, which left us unsure of what to do. However, the horses were truly smart and safely carried us on their backs for an hour. I don't think I'll ever have an experience like this again. I highly recommend it to young people.

馬が好きだと言うことだけで82歳の母をこのオプショナルツアーに参加させたと思うと今でもドキドキします。まさに言葉通りの渓谷乗馬プラン。馬の幅も無いような狭い道を上手進みます。今でも信じられない経験です。こんな初心者を乗せてあんな渓谷を歩いてよく無事に帰ってこれたなと思います。1時間たっぷり1列に並んで、ゆっくりゆっくり歩きますが、坂道があったり細い道があったり、カーブがあったり、最後まで母は怖かったみたいです。一生けん命馬に声をかけて乗せてもらっていました。暴れたりすることは決してないのですが、やはり自然の生き物なので、わきの草を食べたり、止まってしまったりするとどうしていいかわからなくなりました。でも本当にお利口な馬たちで、無事に1時間私たちを背中に乗せて歩いてくれました。こんな経験はもうできないと思います。若い人にお勧めです。

I signed up because I wanted to go horseback riding. There are a total of 9 participants, including the two of us. Before heading to the North Shore, we passed by the high school that Obama attended, and along the way, we were able to hear some stories that are not often shared. Our guide, Nakama, was constantly talking and was very considerate, showing that he was well-informed about history and current events in Hawaii. The horseback riding itself felt like quite a challenging course, but since an 80-year-old grandmother was able to ride, I managed to get through it safely (although I almost fell off while waiting...). I was at the front, riding behind what seemed to be the owner, a funky grandmother who was probably over 70 with long braids. She explained everything in English, but I could only understand simple words, so it would have been very educational if I had been better at English. The content of this tour was more than sufficient. More than that, meeting wonderful people like Nakama became my most cherished memory. Thank you very much.

乗馬がしたくて申込しました。私達2人含め合計9名での参加です。まずはノースショアに向かう前にオバマさんの通った高校を通ったりしながら、道中はなかなか聞けないお話をうかがえました。担当のナカマさんはずーっとしゃべりっぱなしで大変気遣いもあり、歴史やハワイの旬な情報をぬかりなくチェックしているのがわかりました。肝心の乗馬はなかなかキツイコースに感じましたが、80歳のおばあさんも乗れていたので、なんとか無事にこなせました。（待機中落馬しかけましたが・・）私が先頭で、ロング三つ編みのファンキーな70は過ぎているだろう、おばあさんのオーナーらしき人のあとにくっつき乗馬していたのですが、英語でひとつひとつ説明をしてくれているのですが、わたしには簡単な単語しかわからず、英語ができれいれば大変勉強になったはずです。このツアーの中身は充分です。それよりも、ナカマさんのような素晴らしい人たちに出会えたことが一番の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。

My husband and I were disappointed with the tour guide. We felt he had a attitude about him and really didn't want to be there. At times we thought he was being rude in his manor and attitude. We went on another tour and the guide was so different and really acted like he wanted to be there. It made a big difference on the tour and made it much more enjoyable. The tour itself was great, but it could of been a lot nicer if the guide was more interested in the people on his bus and what he was doing.

Before heading to the North Shore, we stopped by places like the Dole Plantation, enjoyed garlic shrimp, and saw turtles. The final activity was horseback riding, which was packed with fun. The horseback riding along the beach was the highlight of this trip for me. It was such a relaxing experience, and I think even beginners can participate with confidence. I would love to join again when I come to Hawaii!

ノースショアに行くまでにドールプランテーションなど立ち寄ってガーリックシュリンプも食べれてカメも見れて最後は乗馬と盛りだくさんのプランでした。
特に最後の乗馬は今回の旅行で一番楽しかったです。海辺をゆっくりと乗馬しながらの時間はとても心地いい時間で、初心者でも安心して参加できると思いました。
ハワイに来たらまた参加したいと思います！

A few years ago, I experienced beach horseback riding and canyon horseback riding, and those enjoyable moments have stayed in my heart. I wanted to participate again to relive that excitement while I'm still energetic.

I was worried that the tour would be canceled since I had booked it for a weekend when a rare typhoon hit Oahu, but it ended safely despite the heavy rain. Eleven participants of various ages joined in, with the ocean waves crashing and rain pouring down.

It was a 45-minute ride while wearing the borrowed helmet and raincoat. My pants and shoes were soaked, and my makeup was washed away, making it an unforgettable experience. I appreciated the thoughtful care provided by the four women who took care of us.

数年前に海辺の乗馬、渓谷の乗馬を体験して楽しい経験がずっと心に残っていました。
もう一度、元気なうちにあのワクワク感を味わいたくて参加しました。
　めったに来ない台風がオアフ島を襲った週末日を予約していたので、きっとツアーが
キャンセルになるのではと心配しましたが、大雨の中、無事終了してよかったです。
海の波も荒々しく、吹き付ける雨の中、年齢もさまざまな11名が参加しました。
お借りしたヘルメット、合羽を着ての45分でした。ズボン、靴はずぶぬれ、お化粧も落ち
忘れられない体験になりました。
お世話をしてくださった女性達4名の細かい配慮がうれしかったです。

The scenery was beautiful, and even for older people, it was an easy and nice course. However, having to wait for the others in the group to return was tiring, as it took a long time.

景色がよくて歳がいってても歩きやすくよいコースでした。ただ他のプランの人たちの帰ってくるのをまっていなくてはいけなくて長いあいだ待たないといけないのは疲れました。

Riding horses by the seaside was pleasant. The van for transportation was crowded and cramped, which was tough. The guide spoke quickly and was a bit hard to understand, but they were very dedicated.

乗馬が海辺で気持ち良かったです。移動のバンは人数多くて狭くてしんどかったです。ガイドさんは早口であまりわかりにくかったですが一生懸命でした。

This was a once in a lifetime experience! The crew was great and very informative. It was so much fun!

Got caught in the "hang loose" spirit of Hawaii. The activity was booked for transporation at 9.45AM. The day before the activity a message was left at the hotelphone that transport fell through and I had to confirm (before 6PM) new transport time of 5.15AM! Of course I got back at my hotel after 12PM and wasn't able to confirm early pick-up. So I decided to go to the meeting point anyway, but no transport. Office opened at 6AM when I could finally phone in. Service level was low, merely a "No transport, sorry, reschedule please" Since that was not an option for me we had to come up with a solution. After a lot of back and forth (cab will cost you 200 one way!!)I decided to go on a citybus for 2.5 hrs which cost me 2.50 dollars and I made it with an hour to spare. Veltra was very service friendly. They contacted me and booked transport money back right away, without me even asking for it. So lesson learned: No pick-up service for shark tour!
I never even got a sorry from the Shark tour operator and the captain didn't know my name I had become a plus one!
The harbour of the tour itself was a bit dingy at best. The public toilet was filthy with bloodstains and glass bottles, but the boat had no changing option, so you have to use it.
The boat is very nice and the boat ride is awesome (unless you have motion sickness, in that case you will get sick, trust me!)The shark cage is not big, but big enough for the six per group that went in. Pay for the DVD, taking pictures yourself is very hard. The life vest will keep you floating and the ocean slams you into the cagebarrier.
The sharks are amazing and worth every bit of inconvenience. The crew is friendly and knowledgeable. They care for your safety and for the ocean wild life. It's not scary at all. When you get back I recomment getting lunch at Halewa Joe's. Just sit there and review your tour. If you can visit North shore or Turtle beach on your way back. The total tour is highly recommendable (without transport)

I participated in a one-day course from morning to evening with nine people, including myself. Since I was the last to be picked up, I waited for 15 minutes and was really anxious about whether they would actually come, but after that, everything went smoothly. In addition to horseback riding, we visited Moanalua Gardens, a pineapple plantation, and saw sea turtles (which we miraculously spotted!). We had lunch at a delicious shrimp restaurant, and since we had some extra time, they kindly took us to a soap factory. Our guide, Jimmy, was a Japanese-American who was fluent in Japanese and very experienced in guiding. He translated all the instructor's explanations during the horseback riding, so there were no issues at all.

Now, regarding the main horseback riding experience, the horses were well-trained thoroughbreds used for polo, and they responded very well to the reins even without a bit in their mouths. There were no problems for beginners at all! The ride was supposed to be an hour and a half, but with explanations and time spent mounting the horses, we actually rode for about an hour and fifteen minutes. It was so enjoyable that it felt like no time at all. When you hear "valley," you might imagine a river flowing, but we simply walked along mountain paths at a steady pace, going up and down repeatedly, and finally reached a spot where we could see the beach in the distance for a commemorative photo on horseback. Shortly after that, we dismounted. After finishing, we immediately got into the car and headed for lunch, so I was a bit disappointed that we didn't have time to interact with the horses or relax at the ranch, but it was a very fun day.

Since we were mostly walking, it might be a bit unsatisfying for intermediate to advanced riders, but I think it was a great experience to create wonderful memories of Hawaii.

朝から夕方までの1日コースで、私を含めて9人が参加しました。ピックアップの順番が最後だったので15分またされて、本当に来てくれるのかとドキドキしましたが、そのあとは順調でした。乗馬のほかにモアナルアガーデン、パイナップル園、ウミガメ見学（奇跡的に見られました！）、おいしいシュリンプのお店でお昼、時間が余ったので特別にソープファクトリーまで連れて行っていただきました。ガイドのジミーさんは日本語が堪能の日系の方でガイドにとても慣れていました。乗馬もインストラクターの説明を全て通訳してくださったので全く問題ありませんでした。
さて、メインの乗馬ですが、馬はポロ競技用によく調教されているサラブレッドで、口にハミを付けていなくても手綱の指示で本当によく動いてくれました。初心者でも全く問題ありません！時間は、1時間半コースでしたが説明や馬に乗る時間があるので実質1時間15分乗ったか乗らないかくらいでした。楽しかったのであっという間でしたね。渓谷と聞くと川の流れを想像させるのですが、ひたすら山道を並足で進み、上り下りを繰り返し、最後に遠くにビーチを望む場所に出て馬上で記念撮影。そのすぐ後に下馬になりました。終わったらすぐに車に乗って昼食に向かったので、馬と触れ合ったり牧場でのんびりしたりする時間がなかったのがちょっと残念でしたが、とても楽しい1日でした。
ずっと並足だったので乗馬の中上級者にはものたりないかもしれませんが、ハワイのいい思い出を作るには盛りだくさんでいい体験かなと思います。

My wife & I love Shark Week so this activity was a clear must do. There is so much to talk about for this activity, but I'll just break it down to pros & cons. Pros: the water is really warm and about 80ft of visibility, the crew was nice, the sharks ranged at a decent 10ft to 12ft, the sharks get extremely close to the cage where you can touch a fin (but they tell you don't so beware), and most importantly not even Jaws can get through that cage (super thick bars). Cons: it's a small boat so if your prone to motion sickness you NEED dramamime since your out there for about 2 hours, no food or snacks so bring some because after your 30min dive you will be hungry and its about 1-2 hrs before you get back to Waikiki, and this is a tip from the wife - the bathroom at the dock is a park restroom so no seat covers so byosc ;). Wish I had a photo to share off my phone since it was really cool but its all on the gopro.

I participated in this tour because I wanted to enjoy horseback riding slowly on the North Shore for the first time. Not only did I get to ride, but I also enjoyed visiting Moanalua Gardens, Dole Plantation, Turtle Beach, and trying garlic shrimp in Haleiwa! The horseback riding through the valley was on a trail with more ups and downs than I expected, but the horses were really well-trained, and it was a 90-minute ride while enjoying the surrounding scenery. I definitely recommend this for anyone who wants to enjoy horseback riding in Oahu. If I could wish for anything, I would have liked a little more time to explore Haleiwa.

初ノースショアで乗馬もゆっくり楽しみたくてこちらのツアーに参加しました。
乗馬だけでなく、モアナルアガーデン、ドールプランテーション、海がめビーチ、ハレイワタウンでガーリックシュリンプなど、堪能できました！
渓谷乗馬は思ったよりアップダウンが激しい道でしたが、馬は本当に訓練されててまわりの景色を楽しみながらの90分でした。オアフで乗馬を楽しみたい方にはぜひオススメです。
欲を言えば、ハレイワの散策時間がもうちょっとあればよかったなぁと思います。

The weather was nice, and with calm waves, I was able to enjoy myself without getting seasick. The situation where sharks came close enough to reach out and touch was truly thrilling!

天気もよく、うそのように波のない状況で船酔いもせず楽しめました。
サメが手の届きそうなところまでせまってくる状況は、迫力満点！！

It's convenient to have transportation to the hotel since it's away from Waikiki. The driver's round-trip guidance was interesting and made for a fun time. I was able to inquire about any questions beforehand, which made me feel at ease for the horseback riding. My daughter had her first experience and seemed to really enjoy it. I would love to ride again if there were a course that allows for a two-hour trip and galloping. The beautiful ocean, typical of Hawaii, with sea turtles swimming around made for a blissful location.

ワイキキから離れているので宿泊ホテルまでの送迎があって便利。運転手さんの往復のガイドは面白く楽しいひと時でした。疑問に思ったところは事前に問い合わせができ安心して乗馬が出来ました。娘は初体験でしたがとても楽しかったようです。私としては２時間位遠出が出来、駈足が出来るコースがあれば又乗りたいです。ハワイらしい綺麗な海、ウミガメも泳いでいて至福のロケーションでした。

We went on the sunset private ride and it was amazing. My fiance and I would definitely go back here next time we're on Oahu. Our guide was very chill and the horses were gentle. The view was amazing at sunset and besides my horse stopping to eat all the bushes (that was my fault for not taking charge) everything went smoothly. 10 out of 10 would do again!

The reasons I participated in this activity were to get Happy Haleiwa merchandise, see sea turtles up close, and eat rainbow shaved ice and garlic shrimp♡ I was able to achieve all of that! (∗❛ั௦❛ั∗)

The road was straightforward, making it very easy to navigate, and above all, our driver Jimmy introduced various things in Japanese, which was really great!

I learned so much about Hawaii that I didn't know before♪

At the beach, I felt relaxed watching surfers riding the waves and families enjoying the ocean. It was just so beautiful‼︎ I saw a sea turtle basking in the sun on the sandy beach, with a shell that looked like a rock♪ I was moved to see it so close! There were also so many delicious gourmet options, and I thoroughly enjoyed Haleiwa!

However, it was disappointing that traffic reduced our free time more and more ( ˚᷄⌓̉˚᷅)

But I highly recommend it!

このアクティビティに参加した理由は、ハッピーハレイワちゃんグッズをGETすること、海ガメを近くでみること、レインボーかき氷やガーリックシュリンプを食べること♡
全て実現できましたー(∗❛ั௦❛ั∗)

道も一本道なためすごくわかりやすかったのと、何より運転手であるジミーが日本語でいろいろ紹介していただいたコトがすごくよかったです！

ハワイについて初めて知ったコトばかりでした♪

ビーチは、サーファーが波乗りをしてたりファミリーが海水浴をしてたりのんびりした気持ちになれました。とにかくすごくキレイ‼︎
砂浜に、岩のような甲羅を背負った海ガメが日向ぼっこしてました♪
すごく近くでみれたので感動！
美味しいグルメもたくさんあってハレイワを堪能でしました！

ただ、渋滞するとフリータイムがどんどんけずられてしまうのが残念でした ( ˚᷄⌓̉˚᷅)

でもオススメです！

I participated with my two daughters. Unlike the cheerful atmosphere of Waikiki, I thought, "Ah, I want to live here forever!" (Though that's impossible…) It was full of nature, and we relaxed.

In Haleiwa, we had to coordinate the timing between the horseback riding group and the beach group, which resulted in about 30 minutes in the morning and a 40-minute break after riding. It's a shame we couldn't explore the town slowly. However, we were able to have lunch at Mackey's.

For horseback riding, we had to wait about 40 minutes during the lunch break with the riding club members…? My daughter, who is usually scared of dogs, managed to ride without any issues and followed at the back. However, my horse, perhaps due to compatibility issues, kept trying to bite my feet and lower its head to eat grass, making me almost fall off!!!

　娘二人との参加です。ワイキキのうきうきした雰囲気とは違い、ああここに永住したい！　　(無理ですが…)自然いっぱいで、のんびりしましたｌ

　ハレイハ、乗馬渓谷組と海辺組の時間合わせで　午前30分と　乗馬後40分位？の休憩とな　りました。ゆっくり町を見られなかったのが残念"(-""-)"　　でもマッキーズのお店で

Really enjoyed our scenic ride along the beautiful beach of the North Shore! Had a friendly, knowledgeable instructor who made the ride fun with interesting local facts. Would definitely do it again!

We attended this trip in September 2014, & from the start the staff were fun, knowledgeable & helpful. The sea was a bit choppy as we had the 10-00 am trip, but with Gravol inside, no issues here.
The ocean was crystal clear. the cage was a bit buffeted, due to waves, but this did not spoil our enjoyment of seeing sharks at close quarters, in their environment.
We saw around 15 sharks, & thought this was brilliant. would highly recommend.

This was one of the most exciting experiences of my life. Its hard to put into words the beauty and grace of the sharks I saw. Knowing I was completely safe made the experience all the better. Russell my driver had some wonderful information about the island and was a joy to talk to during the drive. I have recommended this adventure to everyone I talked to. Definitely would do this again.

This was a great tour. Our tour guy, I believe his name is Sam was very helpful and funny. Sam was also very knowledgeable and he made the tour a memorable experience for us. We like the fact that we get to plan out our activities and get to see couple places at North Shore. The only suggestion that we think can improve for the tour is the activities in the afternoon. There wasn't a lot of options in the afternoon activities like in the morning. Overall, we enjoyed the tour very much.

We participated at the end of August with our 3-year-old and 1-year-old. We rode in a van with three families, a total of 12 people. The air conditioning in the vehicle was comfortable.

The guide was Japanese, so everything was in Japanese.

I was thrilled to see the trees, and at the Dole Plantation, the kids were excited to ride the pineapple train. We were on the train for about 30 minutes, which felt quite long.

They mentioned we might not see any turtles, but we were able to see a few swimming turtles, which got my 3-year-old daughter excited. For lunch, we had shrimp from Markey's! It was delicious! The Matsumoto Shave Ice was super crowded, but it was definitely tasty!

It was a tour that I can confidently recommend to my satisfied friends. Thank you!

3歳と1歳の子連れで8月末に参加させていただきました。
バンに乗って3家族、全員で12人とかだったかな？車内はエアコンも効いて快適でした。
ガイドさんは日本人なのでもちろん日本語。

木を見れたのも感激でしたし、ドールでは子供はウキウキしながらパイナップル列車に乗りました。が、30分列車には乗ったかな？結構長いです。

カメは見れないかも、とのことでしたが、泳いでいるカメを数匹見れて、3歳の娘も興奮していました。
お昼はマーキーズのエビ！おいしい！
まつもとシェイブアイス、激混みだったけど、確かにおいしい！

と満足な友人にも自信をもってオススメできるツアーでした。
ありがとうございました。

Horseback riding on the North Shore was truly amazing. The only downside was the driver's poor attitude. I was told the car's air conditioning was not working well, but it was completely ineffective, making the environment inside the car terrible. I believe proper maintenance is the bare minimum of good manners. If you're in the service industry, I expect a proper response.

ノースショアでの乗馬は、本当に最高でした。ただただ残念なのが運転手の愛想が悪かったことが残念です。車のエアコンの調子が悪いと言われていたが…全然エアコンが効いておらず車内の環境は、最悪でした。ちゃんとメンテナンスをしておくことが最低限のマナーだと思いますよ。客商売ならきちんとした対応を望みます。

Beautiful scenery.... Friendly courteous guides..too short... Would have liked to be on the beach more!

I participated with my children, who are in the fourth and third grades. My child wanted to try horseback riding, and after researching, this was the only option available for an 8-year-old. Besides our family, there was only one other family, and they listened to various requests. However, although it was advertised as a 90-minute horseback riding session, it actually lasted only 60 minutes. I thought we would have a bit more time for North Shore sightseeing, but there was hardly any time left. Our guide, Nakama, was very polite and taught us a lot, but it felt a bit different from what I had expected. However, the horseback riding was great.

小４と小３の子供と３人で参加しました。子供が乗馬をやりたいと言い、調べたところ８歳の子供でもできるのはこれしかなかったので。うちの家族以外はもう１家族のみで、いろいろ要望を聞いてくださいました。ただ、乗馬は９０分とあったのに実際は６０分。ノースショア観光ももう少しできるのかと思っていましたが、ほとんど時間がありませんでした。ガイドのナカマさんは、いろいろ教えてくださってていねいでしたが、ちょっと思っていたことと違う感じでした。でも乗馬はよかったです。

Although I arrived early at the location with a rental car, there was a road closure due to an accident just 1 kilometer away, and I couldn't make it on time for my reservation. I was unsure when the closure would be lifted, and in my frustration, I called the phone number listed on the voucher. I explained the situation, but due to my poor English, they initially thought I was lost. Eventually, I conveyed that it was a road closure, but they told me they couldn't help since I wasn't speaking to the reservation department, which made me realize the drawbacks of online booking. I had no choice but to turn back for a while, and when I returned later, the road was open. I went to the location and explained the situation, and after consulting with the intermediary company over the phone, they agreed to let me join the next session. (By the way, I was told that cancellations were not possible.)

The horseback riding was with two Japanese families and an Australian family. The instructions were given in very fast English, but it seemed manageable even for elementary school children. They provided helmets, so there was no need for riding hats, but since the path went through narrow trees, long pants are essential. I wore a short-sleeved shirt, but since branches might scratch you, I recommend wearing long sleeves if you're concerned.

Despite the accident, the local staff (two women) were kind, and riding along the beach was a wonderful experience. However, the restroom situation is poor, so I recommend using the facilities before you go.

レンタカーで現地に早めに行ったものの、あと１キロのところで事故による道路の封鎖があり、予約の時間に行けませんでした。封鎖がいつ解かれるかもわからず、困ってバウチャー記載の電話番号に電話し、事情を話しても（英語が拙かったせいで最初は道に迷ったと思われてしまいましたが、最終的には道路の封鎖だと伝わりました）予約担当じゃないからわからないと言われてしまい、ネット予約のデメリットを痛感しました。仕方なくいったん引き返して時間を置いて戻ったところ、道が通れるようになっていたので、現地に行き、事情を話したら、電話で仲介会社（？）と相談の上、次の回に入れてくれることになりました。（ちなみにキャンセルはできないと言われました。）
乗馬は日本人家族２組とオーストラリア人の家族と一緒でした。説明はとっても早口の英語でしたが、小学生くらいのお子さんでも大丈夫な感じでした。ヘルメットを貸してくれるので、乗馬用の帽子は必要ありませんでしたが、狭い木々の間の道を通るので、長いズボンは必須です。私は半祖袖を着ていましたが、枝で切ってしまうかもしれないので、心配な方は長袖の着用をおすすめします。
アクシデントはありましたが、現地のスタッフ（女性２名）は親切でしたし、ビーチ沿いを馬に乗って歩くのは素晴らしい体験でした。
なお、トイレ事情は悪いので、済ませてから行かれることをおすすめします。

We all had a great time as a family. During the horseback riding, several staff members accompanied us and provided solid support for the children, which made us feel secure, and we were satisfied with the ample riding time. Additionally, we stopped by a few shopping spots recommended by our guide, where we were able to purchase some great deals. Even during the car ride, we had various conversations and were never bored. However, it would have been nice if they had spoken a bit more slowly. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate once more.

家族みんなで楽しめました。乗馬ではスタッフが何人か付き、子供をしっかりサポートしてくださったので、安心でしたし、乗馬時間もたっぷりで満足出来ました。また、ガイドさんおすすめのショッピングスポットに数か所寄っていただき、お買い得な品々を購入することが出来ました。車中でも、色々なお話をしてくださり退屈しませんでした。ただ、もう少しゆっくり話してくださった方が良かったかな。ハワイに行くことがあれば、また参加したいです。
