All Reviews for North Shore Tours & Things To Do

The tour guide really worked with our family and we got to see everything! We love honu!

Ken was very pleasant from the moment he picked us up, and I felt relaxed and at ease even before the tour started. He made us laugh with jokes in the car and shared his knowledge and information about Hawaii, making the 7 hours fly by. The ride in the Lincoln was also fantastic; I didn't feel tired at all and could have stayed on longer. Ken is half Japanese and half American, and since he has lived in Japan for a long time, he speaks Japanese fluently. I would love to request Ken again the next time I have the opportunity. Thank you for the enjoyable time, Ken!

ケンさんはお迎えの時からとっても感じがよくて、ツアーが始まる前から安心&リラックスできました。車内ではジョークで笑わせてくれたり、ハワイの知識や情報を教えて下さったり、あっという間の7時間でした。リンカーンの乗り心地も最高で、全く疲れたりもせず、まだまだ乗っていたいくらいでした。ケンさんは日本とアメリカのハーフの方で、日本に長く住んでいたこともあるので、日本語はペラペラです。
また機会がある時はケンさんにお願いしたいと思っています。
ケンさん楽しい時間をありがとうございました。

Walking among the ocean, wind, and clear skies on the beach was amazing! The horses didn't smell, and there were few bugs. I'll join again when I come to Hawaii in a few years!

海、風、晴れ空、ビーチの中、歩くの最高でした！
馬も臭くないし、虫も少なかったです
また数年後ハワイ来た時参加します！

I have experienced horseback riding in other places, but I was able to enjoy it for a longer time here. I was surprised that both horses had children's names. I felt a connection and they were very cute. The refreshing feeling of running by the seaside while feeling the breeze of Hawaii was the best healing time. Thank you very much.

乗馬は、別の場所でも体験しましたが、時間が長く乗馬を楽しめました。馬の名前が2頭とも子どもの名前で、驚きました。何かの縁を感じ、とても可愛かったです。海辺を走る爽快感も心地よくHawaiiの風を感じながら、最高の癒しの時間でした。ありがとうございました。

Our tour guide Mac was amazing!! He was very funny, knowledgeable about plants and flowers, history of the Island, personable and very entertaining. This tour made our trip.

In the early morning, we were picked up at Hilton Hawaiian Village, and if you just stay on the bus, you'll arrive at the skydiving site. The van was full, with many tourists, including Japanese visitors. After arriving, you log in on an iPad and sign the waiver, so it's smooth if you print out your reservation ID and other details.

早朝にヒルトンハワイアンビレッジにてピックアップ、そのまま乗っていればスカイダイビング場へ到着です。バンは満席、日本人含め観光客が多くいました。到着後、iPadにてログイン、免責事項へのサインがありますので、予約IDなど印刷していくとスムーズです。

I had experience riding horses in Hawaii, but it was my first time doing it while looking at the ocean, and I participated. The horse was very gentle and walked nicely. The weather was good and hot, but both the sea and the sky were a brilliant blue, making it a great experience! If possible, I would have liked to return to Waikiki in the evening, as I wanted some time to relax in Haleiwa, which was quite busy.

ハワイで乗馬の経験はありましたが、海を見ながらは初めてで、参加しました。
とてもおとなしい馬で、お利口に歩いてくれました。
天気が良くて暑かったけれど、海も空も抜けるような青で、よい経験になりました！
できれば、ワイキキに帰るのは夕方でもいいので、かなり慌しかったハレイワで、ゆっくりできる時間が欲しかったです。

The first time, I was just scared and ended the experience, but after it was over, I thought, "What a wonderful experience! Next time, I want to enjoy it while flying!" So, I decided to try again six months later! I had a fantastic experience that I could never have in my daily life!

For my first attempt, I signed up for the handheld camera and photo package. I requested an outside camera (where a photographer flies separately from the instructor to take pictures) on-site, and I was shocked by the final video. The footage from the outside camera was edited upside down. I emailed three times and also contacted them via Instagram with detailed explanations and images asking for corrections, but I was ignored. I also reached out through this site, but that was ignored as well.

When I mentioned this on-site this time, they offered me the outside camera for free (the cost for the outside camera during my first attempt was $139). Since the weather was good this time, I was told I could jump from an additional 1000 meters for $160, so I requested that. Whether this would be possible depended on luck, but it was amazing! The photos and videos were sent the next day, and they were fantastic! The first video was about six minutes long, while the second was nine minutes. Depending on the instructor and photographer, there seems to be quite a difference in the experience and the footage. This also depends on luck. Everything was perfect this time!

１度目はひたすら怖がって体験を終えてしまい、
体験終了後に「素晴らしい体験だった！次は楽しみながら飛びたい！」と思い、半年後に再チャレンジ！日常では決して味わえない体験を楽しみながらさせていただきました！

１度目はハンディカメラと写真のパッケージで申し込み。現地でアウトサイドカメラ(カメラマンがインストラクターとは別でもうひとり飛んで撮影してくれる)を頼み、出来上がりの映像で驚愕。
アウトサイドカメラの映像が上下逆さまで編集されてました。メールで３度、インスタからも「直してほしい」と細かく説明や画像を添えて問い合わせたが、無視されてしまい、こちらのサイトにも問い合わせましたが、それも無視されたままでした。。

今回その事を現地で話すと、無料でアウトサイトカメラを付けてもらえました。(１度目のアウトサイトカメラ料金は139ドル)今回は天気が良いので＋160ドルで＋1000mの高さからのジャンプが出来るとの事でお願いしました。これが出来るかは運次第ですが、最高でした！写真と映像は翌日送られてきて、出来も最高でした！１度目の映像は約６分、２度目は９分でした。インストラクターとカメラマンによっては体験と映像にかなり差が出る印象。
これも運次第です。今回は全て最高でした！

Very nice tour! Jonah was knowledgeable and very friendly! We were able to see turtles and experience Hawaii in a different way. Highly recommend!

It was my first hike, and I was a bit anxious, but the well-maintained path made it very easy to walk! Also, the guide taught us about various plants, which was really enjoyable!

The coffee from the coffee farm was plentiful and very delicious!

初めてのハイキングで、少し不安でしたが整備された道だったのですごく歩きやすかったです！
また、ガイドさんが色々な植物のことを教えてくださり、とても楽しかったです！

コーヒー農園のコーヒーもたっぷり入っててとっても美味しかったです！

Since there were no reviews on this site, I looked up other sites (which also had mostly English posts), and I really wanted to try Sunset SUP and paddle in both the river and the ocean, so I decided to join this tour.
In conclusion, it was definitely the right choice to participate!
At the beginning of September, the sunset is around 18:30 to 19:00, so we started at 16:30. We departed from the ocean and entered the connected river. Just before we started, it rained for a moment, and while paddling, we were able to see a rainbow.
We were the only ones doing SUP, and paddling through the quiet and calm river surrounded by trees was a blissful experience. We even encountered a sea turtle. After paddling a long distance down the river and turning back to return to the ocean, the sun was beginning to set, and we leisurely watched the sunset there. Although we finished SUP before it got dark, we returned to the beach and watched the sunset before leaving the North Shore.
The guide couldn't speak Japanese, so we communicated in English, and despite my limited English skills, I managed to communicate and had a great time. Also, since I was worried about whether there would be Uber or buses, I included it in a private tour. I highly recommend participating!

当サイトにクチコミがなかったので他サイトでも調べ(そこでも英語の書き込みばかりでしたが)、どうしてもサンセットサップがやりたかったのと、川だけでなく海も漕ぎたかったのでこちらのツアーに参加することにしました。
結論、参加して大正解でした！
9月頭だと日没が18:30~19:00頃なので16:30にスタート。海を出発し、繋がっている川に入っていきます。直前に一瞬雨が降ったこともあり、漕ぎながら虹を見ることができました。
SUPをしている人は私たちしかおらず静かで穏やかな川を漕ぐのですが、木々に囲まれた川をゆったりと進むのは至福の時でした。ウミガメにも遭遇できました。長い距離川を漕ぎ、折り返してまた海に戻ってくると日が沈みかけており、そこで日没をゆったりと眺めました。暗くなる前にSUPは終了しましたが、ビーチに戻って日が暮れるのを見てノースショアを後にしました。
ガイドさんは日本語が話せず英語での会話をしましたが拙い英語力でもなんとかコミュニケーションをとって楽しい一時を過ごせました。また、今回はUberやバスがあるか不安だったので個人ツアーの中に組み込みました。是非参加することをお勧めします！

After 25 years, my husband and I decided to take an overseas trip together, and we were considering how to explore Hawaii. By chance, my husband found a Cessna experience tour in a guidebook and made a reservation. They kindly offered to pick us up from a hotel that was outside their usual area, and they were also very prompt and helpful in our email correspondence, which made us feel at ease about the experience. We were blessed with great weather, and the views of the islands from the sky were truly spectacular and impressive! I'm really glad we decided to participate. Thank you very much.

25年振りの夫婦での海外旅行・ハワイということで島内観光をどのようにしたらよいのか考えていたなか、主人が偶然セスナ機の体験ツアーをガイドブックで見つけて予約しました。規定外のホテルまでの送迎にも応じてくださり、また事前のメールのやりとりにも親切迅速に対応下さって安心して乗ることができました。お天気にも恵まれ空からの島の景色はそれはそれは迫力ある素晴らしいものでした！思い切って参加して本当に良かったと思います。
ありがとうございました。

I joined this tour because I wanted to explore the North Shore.

Out of the three options, I chose Waimea Valley, which seemed to offer an experience of Hawaii's plants and nature, and it was a great choice. It felt more like a botanical garden than just nature, with a variety of plants to see, and the paths are paved and very easy to walk on. I hardly saw any Japanese tourists, which is surprising because it's really nice. Also, since you can swim at the waterfall, it might be a good idea to wear a swimsuit under your clothes.

In Haleiwa, I followed the typical tourist route, enjoying garlic shrimp and Matsumoto Shave Ice, and then I strolled along the beach, gazing at the ocean.

The driver and guide was Japanese, and although he wasn't very talkative, he shared a lot of information about Dole and Haleiwa along the way.

ノースショアを見て回りたいということでこのツアーに参加しました。

3つあるオプションのうち、ハワイの植物や自然が体験できそうなワイメア渓谷を選んだのですがこれが大当たりでした。自然というか植物園という感じで、様々な植物を見れますし、道は舗装されていてとても歩きやすいです。日本人は殆ど見かけませんでした。すごくいいのに。
あと滝では泳ぐこともできるので下着として水着を着ていくと良いかも。

ハレイワでは観光客のお定まりのコースですが、ガーリックシュリンプとマツモトシェイブアイスを食べ、てくてく歩いてビーチで海をぼんやり眺めてきました。

運転手兼ガイドさんは日本の方で、口数は多くありませんが途中のドールやハレイワについて色々教えていただきました。

At the end of August, my wife and I participated together. My wife had a piloting experience. It was an expensive tour, but we thought that if we missed this opportunity, we might never get to pilot a plane again, so we signed up.

The person who picked us up was Japanese, and the pilot was also from Japan, which made us feel very secure.

The course took us around the eastern half of Oahu and lasted about an hour. Naturally, it was my wife's first time piloting a plane, and she was extremely nervous, but they provided support at the right times, so we were able to enjoy it without any dangerous moments (she got tired about two-thirds of the way through, so the pilot took over for the rest).

And surprisingly, after the flight experience, my wife forgot her phone on the sofa, but they contacted us and even delivered it to our hotel. I really appreciate the extra effort they made.

8月末に妻と二人で参加しました。妻が操縦体験をしました。高額なツアーですが、もうこの機会を逃したら飛行機の操縦なんて二度と無いかも、ということで申し込みました。
送迎をしてくれた方も日本人、またパイロットさんも日本の方で、とても安心でした。

オアフ島の東半分を周遊するコースで、ちょうど1時間ほど。当然妻も飛行機の操縦は初めてでめちゃくちゃ緊張していましたが、適時サポートしてくれるので危ないところもなく楽しめました（2/3くらいのところで疲れてしまったので、残りは操縦していただきました）。

そしてなんと、飛行体験が終わったあとソファのところに妻が携帯を忘れていってしまったのですが、連絡をくれてわざわざホテルまで届けてくれました。大変お手数おかけしました。

Our guide Kinoa was fantastic, chatting all day but not obtrusive or overbearing. We saw some beautiful scenery, had a delicious lunch and learnt so much about being an Hawaiian and real living in Hawaii, not the tourist hype of Waikiki.

I was anxious until I got on, but once I flew, it was refreshing!
Even though the aircraft is small, it flies steadily.
The speed is slow enough to enjoy the scenery, and 30 minutes goes by in no time.
However, it's scary when I'm the one piloting; the aircraft responds to even the slightest movement of the control stick.

乗るまでは不安でしたが、いざ飛んでみれば気分爽快！
機体は小さくても安定した飛行です。
速度もゆっくりで景色を楽しむことができ、３０分はあっという間です。
でも自分が操縦する時だけはコワいですね、操縦桿の少しの動きに機体が反応します。

Really awesome guide and awesome planned itinerary and stips around NS

faced our fears and ended up being one of our best experiences! my boys loved the thrill of being right next to the sharks

It was absolutely amazing! This time, I went with my family of four. The exhilaration and indescribable feeling are something you can't experience anywhere else. Skydiving doesn't have the same sense of distance from the ground as bungee jumping, so it's not scary at all. If you haven't tried it yet, I definitely encourage you to give it a shot!

やっぱり最高でした！今回は家族4人で飛びました。
この爽快感と何とも言えない感覚は他で味わえるものではないです。スカイダイビングは陸との距離感が全くないのでバンジージャンプのような怖さはありません。
未体験の方は是非チャレンジしてみて下さい！

It was absolutely amazing! Skydiving, which was on my bucket list, was something I thought might be a bit scary. While waiting below, I was nervous because the parachutes were arriving so quickly! But once I got up there, the height was so great that I didn't feel scared at all, haha. It was completely not scary! I also heard that the person jumping with me had done it about 20,000 times, which made me feel very reassured! Since returning home, I've been recommending it to all my friends.

まーーじで最高でした！
人生でやりたいことリストに入っていたスカイダイビング！ちょっと怖いかなって思ってて、下で待機してる時パラシュートの到着する速度が早くてビビってました！
けど上まで行ったらもう怖いとかないくらいの高さでw
全く怖くなかったです！
いっしょに飛んでくれる人も20000回ほど飛んでいると聞いてとても安心しました！
帰国して友達にみんなに勧めています

As a memory of our honeymoon, I had the experience with my wife!

The drive from Waikiki was incredibly refreshing, surrounded by nature that you can't see in Japan! It might be better to speak some English! This time, I was helped by a Japanese person who could understand the surroundings!

Skydiving was the most exhilarating part, as going up in the Cessna felt amazing! After jumping out, I have no memory of what happened! It was that scary! I definitely think that those who are not good with thrill rides should avoid it!

ハネムーンの思い出として
妻と体験させてもらいました！

ワイキキからドライブは
日本では見ることのない大自然でとても爽快的！
英語は話せたほうがいいかもです！
今回は周りに理解できる日本人の方がいたので助かりました！

スカイダイビングは
セスナで上空まで行くのが最高に気持ちいいです！
飛び降りてからは記憶がありません！
そのくらい怖いです！
絶叫マシンが苦手な方は絶対にやらないほうがいいと思います！

I requested a North Shore tour. Originally it was supposed to be 6 hours, but thanks to a free campaign, they extended the tour by an additional hour. During the tour, Ken provided quizzes about the places we visited and the history of Hawaii, which allowed us to gain knowledge about Hawaii while having fun. When we arrived at each destination, he carefully pointed out the highlights, the locations of shops, restrooms, and even recommended delicious local spots that you wouldn't have to wait in line for. He also took us to places and photo spots that are not typically included in regular tours, making for a truly fulfilling experience. If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I definitely plan to request Ken's services. Thank you very much.

ノースショアのツアーをお願い致しました。本来は6時間だったのですが無料キャンペーンで1時間プラスでツアーを延長していただきました。
ツアー中はKenさんが行く先々の場所に関する事やハワイの歴史等、クイズを出してくれてハワイの知識を身に付けることができ楽しく移動できました。また、目的地に着くと一つ一つ丁寧に見所の場所、お店の場所、トイレの場所、地元の人しか知らない様な並ばなくても美味しいお店を教えて下さいました。また通常のツアーでは行けない様な場所やフォトスポットにも連れて行ってくださったり、本当に充実した時間を過ごす事ができました。
また、ハワイに行く機会があれば、是非とも、Kenさんにお願いしようと思います。ありがとうございました。

Since we were the only ones on the day of the tour, it felt like a private tour. The guide was very kind and made it a lot of fun, so we really enjoyed ourselves! ☺︎ I was worried because I hardly speak any English, but the guide made an effort to communicate using translation tools, which made me feel at ease and allowed me to enjoy the experience!

Anyway, my face ended up completely black (laughs). It gets so dark that I can't even go out in public. A towel and wet wipes are essential.

I will definitely participate again! ☺︎ Thank you very much.

当日は私達しかいなかったので貸切ツアーでしたがガイドさんもとっても親切で楽しませてくれたのでとっても楽しめました☺︎
英語がほとんどできないので心配でしたが、翻訳を使いながら一生懸命に伝えてくださるので安心して楽しめます‼︎

とにかく顔が真っ黒になります（笑）人前には出れないくらい真っ黒になります。タオル、濡れティッシュ必須です。

また絶対に参加します☺︎ありがとうございました。

The tour was excellent! Very memorable. Enjoyed all of it!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the Waimea Valley Luau!
The pre activities were so fun; my son (23 years old) participated in the coconut opening and the palm head cover. He totally embraced the moment.
The area was beautiful! We did the falls and the gardens first.
The drinks were quite festive, and the food was awesome.
The “show” was engaging; I loved the music and dance. And, the fire was very impressive!
I would highly recommend this experience!

I left my hotel near Waikiki at 6:30 AM to meet at the location by 8:30 AM. I thought the shuttle service was a bit expensive, so I took an Uber taxi instead (it cost about 8,000 yen one way).

I arrived at the location in about an hour. It was mentioned that there would be a restroom, but there was no toilet paper and it was extremely dirty, so please keep that in mind when using the facilities. (laughs)

There were a total of 12 members in our group. Before boarding the boat, we had to take off our shoes. Since all shoes can be placed together in a basket, I recommend wearing sandals or something that you don’t mind getting dirty.

After reading reviews from others, I took motion sickness medication before going. After about 15 minutes on the boat, I got seasick. If you are prone to motion sickness, be prepared.

When we reached the area where sharks are spotted, we were divided into two groups: the first half and the second half entered the water. By the way, there was no one among the staff or participants who spoke Japanese. (laughs)

The captain explained the safety instructions in English. He asked if I was from Japan and then handed me a written explanation in Japanese. I can’t speak any English, but surprisingly, I managed just fine. (laughs)

They provide snorkeling gear for free. However, some people brought their own. Since the snorkeling gear is shared, if you’re uncomfortable with that, it’s better to bring your own.

The tour was more fun than I expected, with plenty of sharks around. The time flew by. If it weren’t for the seasickness, I would want to participate again and again. However, since the seasickness was quite severe, I rated it one star lower than the maximum. I returned by bus (it cost about 1,000 yen for two people).

8時半に現地集合のため、朝の6時半にワイキキ付近の宿泊ホテルを出ました。送迎してもらうプランが料金が少し高いと思ったので、Uberタクシーで自力で行きました。(行きのみで約8000円ほどでした)

1時間ほどで現地に到着。現地にトイレがあると書いてありましたが、トイレットペーパーがなくてトイレも壊滅的に汚い為、それを頭に入れてトイレを使ってください。(笑)

メンバーは全員で12人でした。船に乗る前に履物を脱ぎます。籠に全員分まとめて入れられるので、汚れてもいいようなサンダル等を履いてきたほうがいいと思います。

他の方の口コミを読んで、酔い止めを飲んでいきました。船に揺られて15分ほど、見事に酔いました。船酔いしやすい方は覚悟していってください。
サメの出没するポイントにつくと2つのグループに分けられました。前半組と後半組で海に入りました。
ちなみに日本語をしゃべれる人はスタッフと参加者で誰もいませんでした。(笑)

キャプテンが注意事項等、英語で説明してくれます。ジャパン？と聞かれ、その後日本語で書いてある説明書を渡してくれました。まったく英語を喋れませんが、意外と何とかなります。(笑)

シュノーケリングは無料で貸してくれます。ですが、自分で持ってきてる人もいました。使い回しのシュノーケリングなので、嫌な方は自分で持ってきたほうがいいです。

ツアー自体は思った以上にサメがうようよいてとても楽しかったです。
あっという間の時間でした。
船酔いがなければ何度でも参加したいです。
でも船酔いが相当きつかったので、星は最高点より1つマイナスにしました。
帰りはバスで帰りました。(2人で約1000円くらい)

On the VELTRA site, I was a bit worried because there were no reviews for the driver guide, Ken, but as expected, there were no issues at all, and we had a fun day (8-hour tour). We were supposed to meet in front of the hotel at 8 AM, and it seemed that Ken arrived a bit early; when I got there 5 minutes before the meeting time, he was already at the meeting spot. The ride in the Lincoln was comfortable, and the kids, who usually get car sick, were energetic all day. When I shared our destination preferences, he kindly added three more stops since we had time to spare. I was looking forward to seeing sea turtles at Laniakea Beach, and thanks to him parking in a lot right in front of the beach where we could observe the turtles well, we were able to see five turtles and some baby turtles swimming. He has a great personality and speaks Japanese very well, so communication was no problem at all, and he shared a lot of knowledge about Hawaii. He mentioned that everyone might get sleepy after lunch, so he would keep it quiet, but in the end, we enjoyed chatting until we arrived at the hotel. Basically, once we reached a destination, he would wait in the car while we explored freely, so if someone wants the driver to take many photos or guide them at the sightseeing spots outside the car, it might be better to join a different tour. I have heard reviews from other tours where the drivers were unfriendly and terrible, but Ken was a really nice guy, so I wanted to write this review in hopes that more customers will choose him. My wife is already saying she wants to request Ken again next time, so we look forward to it!

VELTRAのサイトでは、ドライバーガイドのkenさんの口コミが０件だったので、大丈夫かなと少しだけ不安だったのですが、当たり前ですが、全く問題なく、楽しい１日（８時間ツアー）を過ごすことができました。朝の８時にホテル前で待ち合わせだったのですが、Kenさんは、少し早めにご到着されていたようで、５分前に到着した際には、すでにお待ち合わせ場所にご到着されていました。リンカーンの乗り心地もよく、車酔いしがちの子供たちも一日元気でした。行先の希望を伝えたところ、時間に余裕があったので、他にも３か所行き先を追加して下さりありがたかったです。ラニアケビーチでウミガメを見るのを楽しみにしていたのですが、海岸が目の前で、ウミガメをよく観察できる駐車場に車を停めていただけたおかげで、ウミガメ５匹と、子ガメたちが泳いでいるのも見ることができました。お人柄がよく、日本語もお上手ですので、コミュニケーションも全く問題ございませんし、ハワイの知識も豊富で、たくさんお話してくださいます。お昼ご飯以降は、みなさん眠たくなるでしょうから、静かにしておきますねとおっしゃられていたのですが、結局、ホテルに着くまで、ずっと楽しくお話させていただきました。基本的に、目的地に着いたら、車でお待ちになって、自由に観光させていただくスタイルですので、ドライバーの方に写真をたくさん撮って欲しい、車の中以外でも観光地でアテンドして欲しいという目的の方は、別のツアーに参加される方がよいかもしれません。他のツアーで、たまに、ドライバーの方が不愛想でサイアクだったという感想がございますが、kenさんは、大変良い方でしたので、少しでもkenさんのお客さんが増える機会になればと感想を書かせていただきました。妻は、次回も、kenさんにお願いしようと申しておりますので、次回もどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

You can enjoy breathtaking views in Hawaii. This is truly a unique activity that only Hawaii offers.

You can experience a total of seven different activities, and there are various challenges along the way, so you won't get bored at all.

If you're too light, you might get stuck at times, but the staff will come to help you, so you can feel at ease.

The exhilaration is outstanding.

The staff are all very friendly and fun, which really boosts your mood and doubles the enjoyment.

This is the most recommended activity among all the experiences I had this time!

ハワイの絶景を楽しめます。
これこそハワイならではのアクティビティ。

全部で７本も体験できますが、
途中でいろいろとお題を出されるので、
まったく飽きません。

体重が軽すぎると途中で止まってしまうこともありましたが、
スタッフの方が助けに行ってくださるので安心です。

爽快感抜群です。

とてもフレンドリーで楽しいスタッフさんばかりで、
気分を盛り上げてくれるので、
楽しさも倍増です。

今回体験したアクティビティの中で一番おすすめです！

The horses are very cute, but...

They just walk in a straight line quietly for a long time (there are explanations from the staff and opportunities to talk with them, but you can't converse with your companions), so I got bored after about the first 30 minutes...

I wish we could walk side by side with our companions and chat instead of in a line.

Thinking about it, it might not be worth the price.

I wonder if it's something I really need to do in Hawaii...

Next time I experience this, I would prefer a private course.

馬はとってもかわいいのですが・・・

ずーっとひたすら一列で黙々と歩くので
（スタッフの方の説明があったり、スタッフの方と話すことはありますが、
同行者と話すことはできません）、
最初の３０分くらいで飽きてしまいました・・・。

一列ではなく、同行者と並んで、おしゃべりしながら歩けたらいいなと思います。

そう考えるとお値段に釣り合わないかもです。

わざわざハワイに行ってやらなくてもいいかなと・・・。

今度体験するなら、プライベートコースにしたいと思います。

We participated as a family of four (with a middle schooler and an elementary school student).

I was a bit anxious because there were few reviews and no Japanese guide, but it was more fun than I imagined, and the kids were very satisfied!

The tour lasted about two and a half hours and was divided into three main sections:
- A flat road where we could drive about 40 km
- A bumpy road through the jungle
- A course within a playground with steep ups and downs
Each section offered a different kind of enjoyment.

Good points:
- The drive through the vast scenery was cool and pleasant.
- The bumpy road was fun like a roller coaster.
- The guide was very kind.
- Even if you're not good at English, they speak slowly, so it's understandable.
- There are instructions in Japanese.
- The water and juice provided during the tour were cold and delicious.
- We received photos and videos from the tour via AirDrop.

Bad points:
- While driving, the guide explains Hawaii's history through a walkie-talkie, but if you're not good at English, it's hard to understand over the walkie-talkie...
- Tips can only be paid in cash, not by card.
- Transportation to the North Shore is necessary.

Before participating, I wondered if it was necessary to go to the mountains instead of the beach in Hawaii, but I think it was the right decision to join! It was really fun.

家族4人（中1、小4）で参加しました。
・口コミが少なかい
・日本語ガイドがいない
ということもあり、少し不安でしたが、
想像以上の楽しさで子供たちも大満足でした！

ツアー時間は2時間半くらいで、大きく
・40km程度で走れる平らな道
・ジャングルの中の凸凹道
・起伏の激しいプレイランド内のコース
の3つに分けられますが、どれも違った楽しさがありました。

良かったこと
・広大な景色の中のドライブが涼しくて気持ち良い
・凸凹道がジェットコースターみたいで楽しい
・ガイドの方がとても親切
・英語苦手でもゆっくり話してくれるので理解できる
・日本語の説明書はある
・ツアー中にもらった水、ジュースが冷えてて美味しい

悪かったこと
・運転中もトランシーバーでハワイの歴史などを解説してくれるのですが、英語が苦手だとトランシーバーごしでは理解できない…
・チップがカードで払えず現金のみ
・ノースショアまでの移動が必要


参加するまでは、ハワイまで来て海じゃなくて山行く必要ある？とも思ってましたが、参加して正解だったと思いました！
本当に楽しかったです。
