All Reviews for North Shore Tours & Things To Do

As a first time sky diver, I had an amazing experience! I felt completely comfortable knowing my tandem partner had 19 years of experience! Definitely will be sky diving again !

First time sky diving & these guys did the best job ever! Definitely will be going again!

It was amazing.
I felt emotions I've never experienced before!
When I fell from the sky, I could see all of Hawaii.
It truly felt like I was falling.
Once the parachute opened, it was like being on an attraction, spinning around and it was incredibly fun.
The staff were kind and taught me well, so I was very satisfied.
In the end, I received a certificate, which became a great memory.

最高です。
感じたことのない感動です！
空から落ちたときハワイのすべてが見えました。
本当に落ちている感覚でした。
パラシュートが開いてからはアトラクションにのっているように、ぐるぐる旋回したりしてものすごく楽しかったです。
スタッフの方も優しく教えてくれて大満足です。
最後に証明書がもらえていい思い出になりました。

To begin, customer service over the phone was fantastic. The tour itself was exactly what I was hoping it would be. We got Ocean, we got River ( the glass bottom kayaks are fantastic), and we got Steve- an entertaining yet professional
Guide who was the perfect combination of laid back and instructive. He even let one of our group take over his paddle board even though that’s not what we signed up for and she loved it! Overall great experience.

The number of sharks is definitely impressive. The experience is thrilling. However, since we went quite far out, I got seasick before we reached the point. Once we arrived, we had to wait our turn to see the sharks in groups, and I got even more nauseous during that time. Being in the cage, exposed to the waves while watching the sharks, made me feel even sicker. On the way back, I could hardly sit up and ended up collapsing on the boat. I had taken motion sickness medication, but it didn’t seem to help with the seasickness. Those who are prone to motion sickness should be cautious. Unfortunately, due to my own body’s reaction, the outcome was disappointing, but there were no faults in the tour itself, so I give it 4 stars.

サメの数はまちがいないです。すごい迫力です。
ただしかなり沖まで行くので、ポイントに着くまでに酔いました。
ポイントについたらグループごとに順番に見るため、待っている間にさらに酔いました。
ケージに入って沖の波にさらされながらサメを見てさらに酔いました。
帰りは起き上がることすら困難で船の上で倒れてました。
酔い止めは飲んでいましたが、船酔い海酔いには効かなかったようです…
もともと酔いやすい方は注意が必要です。
自分の体質で残念な結果ですが、ツアー内容としては落ち度はないので☆４つです。

This is a review by an advanced rider, 1 intermediate and 2 beginners. First the drive from the west of the island takes about an hour to an hour and a half, but it's just beautiful. Our tour was in December and scheduled for 9am as a 1 hour walking tour. We arrived a bit early due to traffic being light. When we arrived, the staff greeted us and explained that they will need to grab the horses and tack up so we could wait by the picnic tables and the bathrooms were behind us. We had no problem waiting and a sweet dog named Sadie came to play fetch with us. It started to rain a bit once the horses were ready, we hadn't brought jackets but it wasn't very cold and it ended fairly quick. The guide asked our experience and explained how to ride to all of us and then began matching horses to people. I think she did an absolutely fabulous job. The tour started and each pair went along nicely and the guide was very informative about the ranch, landscape, and area. She was very friendly. The terrain and landscapes were just beautiful. Green everywhere, big green mountains with billowing clouds draping down them. Each rider enjoyed it, the horses kept the beginners so safe, and mine listened to my light cues well. The guide told us the trails run all over the ranch, so they don't always go on the same trails, this is what makes it great to me. You don't feel like you're on just another head to tail pony ride. It felt personal, it was beautiful, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. All in all, 10 out of 10! I recommend anyone looking for a horseback riding ride in oahu to here, get the morning tour, and relax in north shore afterwards. (great food is at any food truck)

Keao Low was a very funny and interesting driver. He keeps us awake for telling us where we are going and histories of Hawaii. Thumbs Up Keao you are very great!!!!

I was really nervous until I took off, but once I stepped out, it was simply the best! Everything else became unimportant. The instructor was friendly and funny, and I had an amazing experience!

飛ぶまでは非常にびびってましたが
一度踏み出してしまえば、もう最高の一言！！色んなことがどーでもよくなりましたインストラクターの方も気さくで面白く、最高の体験ができましたー

We had a very enjoyable experience as a couple. By the time it started, the rain had stopped, and there was a bit of wind, so it was a little chilly, but it was an experience that made us forget about that. It was great that it wasn't just an attraction for doing the zip line. Next time, I want to experience it under a clear sky on a nice day while enjoying the scenery.

夫婦でとても楽しい体験をしました。始まるときには雨も上がり、風があったので少し寒かったですが、忘れるくらいの体験ができました。ZIPラインをやるだけのアトラクションでなかったのがよかったです。次回は天気がいい日に青空の下で景色も満喫しながら体験したいです。

It was my first time skydiving, so I was very anxious, but thanks to the instructor's humorous care, I was able to have a very exciting time! I want to go skydiving again.

初めてのスカイダイビングでしたので大変不安でしたが、インストラクターの方のユーモア溢れる気遣いにより、とてもエキサイティングな時間を過ごすことができました！
またスカイダイビングしたいです。

It was absolutely amazing! I participated with my 10-year-old daughter. This time, we didn't rent a car during our stay in Oahu, so the shuttle service was very helpful, and we thoroughly enjoyed the scenery and ziplining for half a day. Of course, all the explanations were in English, but we could still have fun within our understanding. It's fine to just follow along.

My daughter was a bit light and couldn't make it to the end, so she had to backtrack, but it was a great memory when someone came to help her like Spider-Man, and everyone was surprised and laughing. It was a nice reminder that there are different ways to enjoy Oahu. I definitely want to participate again!

I recommend wearing quick-drying short or long sleeves to prepare for sudden rain. If your shorts are too short, the belts and other gear might rub against your skin. Wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty from rust, and if you're taking photos, pants with pockets that won't drop things even when you're upside down are a good idea.

There will be explanations along the way, but if it seems like you won't make it to the goal, they will throw a rope from the goal. There is a short red rope attached to it. If you think you can't reach it on your own, grab that red rope, and you can be pulled! My daughter barely reached that red rope and ended up having to go back. Adults should be mostly fine!

とにかく最高に楽しかったです！10歳の娘と参加しました。今回はオアフ滞在中レンタカーをしなかったので、送迎付きはありがたく、半日景色とジップラインを満喫しました。もちろん全て説明は英語ですが、わかる範囲で盛り上がれます。見よう見まねで大丈夫です。
子供は軽いと最後まで行かずバックしてしまうこともありましたが、スパイダーマンのごとく助けに来てもらったことも良い思い出で、みんなびっくり&笑ってました。こんなオアフの楽しみ方もあるんだと再確認。ぜひまた参加したいです！
スコール対策のためにも乾きやすい半袖か長袖をおススメします。下もショートパンツ過ぎると、身体に装着するベルト諸々が皮膚にあたると思います。錆びなどで汚れても良い服装、写真を撮るなら逆さになっても落ちないポケットのあるパンツがいいですよ。
・途中で説明がありますが、ゴールまで届きそうにない場合、ゴールの方からロープを出してくれますが、その先に赤い短いロープが付いています。自力で届かなそうでむり！と思ったときにその赤いロープにつかまれれば、引っ張ってもらえます！
娘はその赤いロープにもギリギリ届かなくて、
逆戻りしてしまいました。大人はほぼ大丈夫です！

I went on this activity with a friend and we took the 55 bus from Waikiki to North Shore. It was a long ride (about 2.5 hours) but the bus literally runs along the shoreline so it the scenery was very nice. You can tell the bus operator that you want to get off at Gunstock Ranch and they'll holler to let you know when they've reached the appropriate stop. A note for those who are not taking a car to the ranch: It's a bit of a walk from the road! It probably took about 5-7 minutes for us to arrive at the ranch.

Because the bus was a bit late, my friend and I were late to our 10:30AM check-in time. We called ahead to let them know and they were very accommodating. The activity was scheduled for 11AM and they told us to just let them know if we were going to arrive later than 11 since our ride might have to be shortened in that case. Luckily we arrived right at 11. It took just a couple minutes to get us checked in and after a short introduction on how to make the horse go and stop, etc, we were on the horse and ready to go.

Our guide was Hannah and she was very nice and attentive. She made some conversation along the way and was quick to help us out if the horse wasn't cooperating. The rest of our group took a horseback ride along the shoreline but my friend and I chose Gunstock Ranch because my friend is allergic to UV rays. The backwood trail of Gunstock Ranch was perfect for her. It was very quiet and tranquil and you could still see the ocean from afar. For our purposes this ride was absolutely perfect.

My only gripe is that two days later, my bum still hurts! Haha.

It was my first time skydiving, and the instructor was entertaining, making it an exciting experience! Going in the early morning allows you to return by noon, which is also appealing as it leaves plenty of time in the afternoon.

初めてのスカイダイビングでしたがインストラクターの方も面白く、刺激的な体験が出来ました！早朝に行って午前中で帰って来れるので、午後の時間もしっかりあるところも魅力です。

It was an amazing experience. I was nervous since it was my first time, but the service was great, and I was able to enjoy myself without worry. Thank you very much!

かなり最高な体験でした。初めてで緊張していたのですが、対応も良く、安心してして楽むことができました。ありがとうございました！

My daughter and I had an amazing ride! Jessica, our guide was so sweet and we had a great time with her. The horses are all so beautiful and well behaved. Our dream to ride along the oceans edge came true! I highly recommend this horseback riding company and we will definitely be back!! ❤❤

I signed up with my son.
It's definitely worth it to fly while enjoying the beautiful sky and sea of Hawaii!
Rather than being scared, I was excited to experience the thrill as soon as possible.
It depends on the instructor and the cameraman, but they entertained us, and the video and photos turned out beautifully.
I don't think it's an expensive purchase for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I'm really glad I had this opportunity.
There are few coin lockers, so you need to arrive early.
You can exchange a one-dollar bill for coins at the vending machine to rent one.
You can check the footage on the spot and decide whether to buy it!

息子を誘って申し込みしました。
ハワイの綺麗な空と海を眺めながら飛べて絶対やる価値あります！
怖いというより早く感動を味わいたくてわくわくしました。
インストラクターとカメラマンにもよりますが自分達は楽しませてくれてビデオと写真も綺麗に撮れていました。
一生に一度 高い買い物ではないと思います。いい体験できて本当によかったです。
コインロッカーが少なくて早めに入れないとだめですね。
1ドル紙幣を両替機でコインに変えて借りる感じです。
ビデオはその場で写りを確認して買うかを決められます！

I can't forget the beautiful view of the sunrise and the sparkling North Shore that I saw while skydiving! I smile every day while looking at the photos! Haha. Before jumping, you can choose whether to have no filming, use a GoPro, or hire a photographer. I requested to use a GoPro. You can decide whether to purchase the video after seeing what was filmed. The instructor constantly takes photos and videos, which really boosts your excitement and enhances communication, so I highly recommend it! After skydiving, there is a notebook where you can leave a message for the instructor. It's a shame I couldn't express myself well in English. Some people might feel anxious about the content of the waiver you sign in the car, but let's just forget about it! It's guaranteed to be an amazing experience!!

スカイダイビング中に見た朝日とキラキラ輝くノースショアの美しい景色が忘れられません！
毎日写真を見ながらニヤニヤしています！笑
飛ぶ前に撮影なし・GoPro・カメラマンの選択をします。
私はGoProでの撮影をお願いしました。動画に関しては撮影したものを見てから購入するかどうか決められます。
インストラクターの方が常に写真や動画を撮ってくれていてテンションもさらにあげてもらえるしコミュニケーションもより取れるので本当におすすめです！
スカイダイビング後、インストラクターの方にメッセージを残すノートが置いてあります。英語だとうまく伝えられなかったのが残念でした。
移動の車中でサインする誓約書の内容に不安になる方もいるかと思いますが…きっぱり忘れちゃいましょう！
最高の経験になること間違いなしです！！

The main purpose of this trip to Hawaii was to go skydiving. I participated alone, but my excitement outweighed my anxiety, and I had high expectations even before the departure. The weather was clear on the day, and the views were amazing! The dive exceeded my expectations. My tandem partner Connor and the photographer Kira were both fantastic! I also had a great conversation with the driver during the transfer, which made me very satisfied! I definitely want to experience this again!

今回のハワイ旅行の一番の目的がスカイダイビングをする事でした。一人での参加でしたが不安よりワクワク感の方が大きく出発前から期待してました。当日は晴れて景色も最高！期待以上のダイビングでした。タンデムのConnor 、撮影してくれたKira　二人ともサイコー♡　送迎のドライバーとも楽しい会話ができて大満足です！また絶対体験したいと思います♪　

I had been to North Shore and Haleiwa before, but this time I spent my time without renting a car, so I joined this tour. I had heard about Happy Trails from a friend beforehand, so I chose the canyon course.

I was able to thoroughly enjoy riding on the mountain paths with ups and downs, and above all, I was impressed by the intelligence of the horses! I learned various guiding techniques before riding, and although I was initially nervous about the leading part, I gradually relaxed and was able to enjoy the scenery. The weather was great, and the view of the ocean from the hill was amazing!!

I also had plenty of time to enjoy myself in Dole and Haleiwa!

ノースショア、ハレイワなどには行ったことがありましたが、
今回はレンタカーを借りずに過ごしたのでこちらのツアーに参加し、
友人から事前にハッピートレイルさんの話をきいていたので、
渓谷コースを選びました。

登り下りの有る山道をしっかりと乗馬しながら満喫することができたし、
何よりも馬たちの賢さに感動！
乗馬前に色々ガイドの仕方を習いましたが、
その一歩先行く先導っぷりに、最初は緊張していましたが、
徐々にリラックスして景色も楽しめるようになりました。
お天気がよかったし、丘からの海の景色は最高でした！！

ドール、ハレイワでの自由時間もゆとりがあって充分満喫できました！

素晴らしい体験ができました。期待通りでした。エマは私たちにとても親切なガイドでしたが、私たちは初めての乗馬でした。キアヌはすぐにまた来たいと言っています！ありがとう。

大きなマハロ。

Had great experience as same with expected. Emma is very kind guide to us although we were the first horsebacK riders.
Kianu wants to come back again very soon!!
Thanx

Big Mahalo

I signed up at the invitation of my wife. At first, I thought, "Horseback riding in Hawaii?" but exploring the undulating course on horseback turned out to be an unexpectedly enjoyable experience. It lasted about 40-50 minutes and went by in a flash. The horses, originally trained for polo, were very well-behaved, and even small children seemed to be having a great time riding them. I can guarantee it will be a fun experience.

妻に誘われて申し込みました．最初は，ハワイで乗馬？と思っていましたが，起伏に富んだコースを馬に乗ってめぐるのは予想外の楽しい体験でした．40-50分？あっという間でした．もともとがポロ競技の馬とのことで，とてもよくしつけられており，小さいお子さんんも楽しそうに乗っていました．楽しい経験になること請け合いです．

except the air sickness all other things were good. it was wonderful view from the top.

It was raining but with Ernell that day was a wonderfull day.

I applied for the tour hoping to see sharks. When I actually got on the boat, there was a guarantee of a 100% encounter with sharks.

When we arrived at the shark spot, there were tons of them. So I was very satisfied.

Even though they are sharks, they are calm and don't bump into the cage. You can observe them quietly and thoroughly.

サメが見れたらいいなぁなんて思いでツアーに応募。
実際の船に乗ったら100％サメとの遭遇を保証なんて記述が。

サメスポットに到着するとうじゃうじゃいます。
なので大満足です。

サメと言ってもおとなしくてケージにゴンゴン来たりしません。
おとなしくてじっくり見れます。

My family was apprehensive but were truly amazed with the helicopter ride. It was informative funny and the talk of the trip. I would highly recommend this experience.
I can’t wait to do it on our next trip. On behalf of my family thank you.

Originally, it was supposed to be an experience with my daughter, but she fell ill on the day, so I participated alone. The driver and guide were experienced, making the ride enjoyable. First, I visited the Dole Plantation for the first time in ten years. After about 30 minutes of sightseeing, we went to the beach where we hoped to see honu (turtles). Unfortunately, they weren't on the shore, but they were nearby, coming up for air. Then, we headed to Haleiwa. I had originally planned to have garlic shrimp for lunch, but since I was alone, I switched to an acai bowl, which was delicious. Finally, we went for the horseback riding experience. With the experienced guide leading us, we walked slowly in a line, two meters apart. The ocean was beautiful, and I had a fulfilling time. On the day, there were four participants, and since the roads were clear, we had some free time in Haleiwa on the way back. Then, we headed to Honolulu. It was a very fulfilling tour.

本来なら娘と2人での体験でしたが、当日体調不良になり、私1人での参加になりました。運転兼ガイドさんの説明も慣れており、楽しい車中になりました。まず、ドールプランテーションに10年ぶりに行きました。30分ほど見学し、その後、ホヌ(亀)が居るかもしれない海岸に残念ながら浜辺にはいませんでしたが、すぐ近くにいて、息継ぎに顔をあげます。そして、ハイレアへ。本来ならガーリックシュリンプの昼食を考えていましたが、1人参加になってしまったので、アサイーボウルに変更。美味しかったです。そして、いよいよ乗馬体験へ。慣れたガイドさんを先頭に2メートル間隔でゆっくり歩きます。海が綺麗で充実した時間を過ごすことができました。当日、体験者が4人と道路が空いていたので帰路にも、ハイレアで自由時間がありました。そして、ホノルルへ。とっても充実したツアーでした。

I was actually planning to go skydiving, but I had to change to a shark tour at the last minute due to military training.

I've been to Hawaii several times, and every time I think about doing a shark tour, but I always put it off because of time constraints.

But I'm glad I was able to do it this time. It was a bit disappointing that I got slightly seasick from drinking too much the night before.

Anyway, I was thrilled to see the sharks up close. I think I would have been even more excited if there were man-eating sharks!

本当はスカイダイビングをやる予定だったのですが軍の訓練の為シャークツアーに急遽変更

ハワイにはもう何度も行ってるのですが毎回シャークツアーやろうと思いつつ時間の関係で後回しに

でも今回やれてよかったです
前日飲み過ぎて若干船酔いしてしまったのが残念すぎでした

とにかく間近に見れて興奮しました。人食いサメとかいたらもっと興奮したと思います

It was absolutely amazing.
I feel like anyone can easily dive here.
If you're thinking about trying it, you definitely should go for it!!
The scenery was also fantastic.

最高に気持ちよかったです。
誰でも気軽にＤＩＶＥできるって気がします。
やってみたいって人は絶対飛んだほうがいいです！！
景色も最高でした。

In the morning, I was picked up at 8:25, but my daughter, who was supposed to accompany me, fell ill, so I participated alone. First, after about 15 years, I wandered around the Dole Pineapple Plantation for 30 minutes. Before heading to Haleiwa, I went to a beach where I might see honu (turtles). Unfortunately, I only saw honu coming up for air, but it was exciting to encounter them up close. Now, at Haleiwa, I had planned to eat garlic shrimp, but since I was alone, I changed to an acai bowl. As expected, it was delicious. Finally, it was time for the horseback riding experience. The horse I rode was well-trained and calm, but it seemed to be hungry and munched on the grass beside us. However, when I gave the go-ahead, it started walking slowly. It was a fulfilling 45-minute horseback riding experience. On the way to and from, I spotted honu from the car on the coast. Since the road was clear, we were able to take some time in Haleiwa on the way back. I had a wonderful experience until the evening.

朝、8:25にピックアップでしたが、同行するはずの娘が体調不良になり、1人での参加となりました。まずは、15年ぶり？に、ドールパイナップルプランテーションで30分フラフラ。ハイレアに向かう前にホヌさん(亀さん)いるかも知れない海岸へ、残念ながら息継ぎをするホヌさんしか見えませんでしたが、近距離での遭遇。なんだか、ワクワクしました。さて、ハイレアでは、ガーリックシュリンプを食べる予定でしたが、1人では無理なので、アサイーボウルに変更。言わずと知れた美味しさ。そして、いよいよ今回のイベント乗馬体験です。慣れたお馬さんはお利口でおとなしく、途中、お腹すいている時間だったらしく、横の草をむしゃむしゃ。しかし、GOサインを出すと、ゆっくり歩き出します。充実した45分の乗馬体験でした。行き帰り共、海岸にいる、ホヌさんを車上から確認しました。道が空いていたので帰路にもハイレアで時間を取ってくださいました。夕方までとても良い体験ができました。

I never thought I would go skydiving in my lifetime, but unexpectedly experienced it on my honeymoon. Once you're on the Cessna, there's nothing left to do but jump out. The quick aerial stroll became an invaluable memory. While it mentions to bring less cash, there are lockers available, so it's better to bring plenty of tips for the instructors and photographers.

スカイダイビングは生涯することないと思ってたのに、まさかのハネムーンで体験。セスナに乗ってしまえば、あとは飛び降りるしかない。あっという間の空中散歩はかけがえのない思い出となりました。少なめの現金、とありますが、ロッカーあるのでインストラクターやカメラマンに渡すチップをしっかりたっぷり持って行った方が良いです。
