Waimea Valley Toa Luau & Free Admission Entry Ticket to Waimea Falls [5:00 PM]

Excellent experience

Reviewed by: Ankita

My friends and I had a great time during this luau! There were a lot of activities to learn traditional manners of cooking, delicious food to eat, and an outstanding show with dance from all the Polynesian islands. I would truly recommend this experience to everyone! Everyone that worked there was very personable as well. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to actually explore the valley but I heard great things about that. I would definitely leave time before to go to the waterfall.

ノースショア（ハレイワ）観光　選べるアクティビティ（シュノーケル・カヤックなど）＜1日／ワイキキorアウラニ・ディズニー・リゾート＆スパ発＞

It was fun! 😆 楽しかった😆

Reviewed by: Noriママ

I had a great time. The ocean was very beautiful and amazing! In the morning, I jumped off the diving rock (it was quite impressive), enjoyed snorkeling, and had a blast in the water. In the afternoon, I did stand-up paddleboarding and strolled around Haleiwa a bit. I was able to play a lot throughout the day.

Everything was in English, so it might be difficult if you can't speak it at all, but the staff were very kind.

とても楽しかったです。海がとてもきれいで最高ですね！午前中は飛び込み岩から飛び込んだり（結構すごいですよ)、シュノーケルをして海遊びを満喫し、午後はサップをして少しハレイワの街を散策しました。一日中たっぷり遊べました。
全て英語なので全く話せないと難しいかもしれませんがスタッフの方はとても親切でしたよ。

English may be essential. 英語は必須かも

Reviewed by: シータ

Out of 16 participants, we were the only two Japanese. On the bus, we introduced ourselves in English, and if you're proficient in English, you'll have a great time. The guide was kind, but we understood more than half of the content. In the morning activities, swimming was prohibited at the waterfall in the botanical garden due to lack of rain (the waterfall itself was dry and not flowing), so I recommend snorkeling. The kayaking was just under an hour on the river. The stops along the bus route included a coconut farm, a fruit stand (a roadside shop), and a shopping mall (single-story). We bought a papaya for $4 at the fruit stand (it was perfectly ripe and very delicious when we ate it at the hotel), and we had Matsumoto's shaved ice at the shopping mall. We had plenty of time and enjoyed ourselves.

参加者16人中、日本人は私たち２人だけ。バスでは英語で自己紹介をするなど、英語が堪能であれば十分楽しめます。ガイドさんは親切でしたが、私たちは半分以上内容を理解できませんでした。午前中のアクティビティーは、植物園の滝は雨不足で水泳禁止だったので（滝自体、枯れ枯れで流れていません）、シュノーケリングをお勧めします。カヤックは川で１時間弱。バスの途中立ち寄り場所は、ココナッツ農園、フルーツスタンド（道路脇の売店）、ショッピングモール（平屋）でした。フルーツスタンドでパパイアを１個$4で買い（ホテルで食べたら、食べごろでとてもおいしかったです）、ショッピングモールでマツモトのかき氷を食べました。時間的には余裕があり楽しめました。

ワイメア滝ハイキングツアー　滝つぼ遊び付き！ノースショアの大自然に癒されながらハワイのカルチャー体験＜コーヒー農園での軽食＆渓谷ランチ付き＞

Adaptability 臨機応変

Reviewed by: mmk

We participated with the aim of touring the botanical garden. The well-paved paths were easy to walk on, and there were plenty of large trees providing shade, making it comfortable to stroll without direct sunlight. Each plant had a name tag, which made it easy to understand.

Unfortunately, the main waterfall activity was disappointing due to a lack of rain, causing the waterfall to dry up, which left participants looking forward to it feeling let down. Instead, we were taken to Haleiwa and had a great time there.

We were the only Japanese participants, but the guide was fluent in Japanese, so they provided explanations in both English and Japanese on the bus and at the botanical garden. The driver and tour guide were very kind and provided various explanations, making it an enjoyable experience.

私たちは植物園巡りを目的として参加しました。きれいに舗装された道は歩きやすく、大きな木の木陰が多いので直射日光も遮られ気持ちよく歩くことができます。植物毎に名札が付いておりわかりやすいです。
メインの滝壺遊びは雨不足により滝が枯れていたため、滝壺遊びを楽しみにしていた参加者はがっかりされていました。
代わりにハレイワへ連れて行ってくださり楽しく過ごしました。
日本人の参加者は私たちだけでしたが、日本語堪能な方でしたので、バスの中でも植物園でも英語と日本語でそれぞれ説明してくださいました。ドライバー兼ツアーガイドさんがとても親切にしてくださり、いろいろな説明してくださったので楽しかったです。

Waimea Valley Guided Hiking Tour, Waterfall Swim, Lunch & Dole Plantation

Waimea Valley and Dole

Reviewed by: The Reynolds

We had a wonderful experience as a family of 10 on our tour to Waimea Valley! The breakfast was a great start! Our tour guide, Jason, was full of great facts as we drove along the way to our destinations! Weimea definitely exceeded my expectations in beauty! Jason shared facts about the flora and fauna surrounding us. The walked is paved but does have some inclines along the way. The walk was great for the whole family but my elderly parents had to move slower behind the group at their own pace. The waterfall was perfect. There is “audience style seating” for families to sit if not swimming and to place items. Life jackets are required and provided which was nice and the life guards that are on duty are very helpful. The tour gives 30 minutes to enjoy the waterfall swimming which was a great amount of time. Lunch was then given after a walk back to the entrance of Waimea. Although lunch is provided and was very good- for picky eaters or hungry along the way- there are snack bars and a walk up style restaurant to order other food.
After leaving Waimea we went to Dole where we had plenty of time to walk around the gift shop and enjoy our Dole Whip. This tour was a hit with the family and definitely would recommend it!

Full Day Tour of North Shore & Waimea Valley Waterfall Swim - Go Tours Hawaii

A great full day bus tour that takes you around Oahu island.

Reviewed by: Lisa Tao

I loved this tour. The bus took us around the island, visiting ALL the hot spots. It can feel a bit rushed but lots of places to go. I think it’s suitable as a first day of your trip activity. Our guide Kanamu was amazing, I loved all the local histories and traditions she told us along the way. The highlight of the trip is definitely Waimea Falls. We spent 1.5 hours here, I personally highly suggest not to go swim in the waterfall because that would become the whole focus of this place. It’s such a beautiful area, you’d be rushing through the short hike trying to get to the waterfall, and once you’ve done swimming you’d be rushing back to your bus. You’d be missing a lot of this beautiful place. I also loved that we stopped for a short 30 minutes Dole plantation. That’s really enough tbh. I would otherwise not have come here but now I can say that I have been there. I loved the fruit stands that we passed, bought some fruits. If you’ve had good sugar cane before don’t buy them here, they weren’t that great. While taste great, they weren’t very juicy, and quite hard to chew. You can definitely try if you’ve never had them before. Bought some macadamia honey at the “nut house”, and I loved the macadamia nut sampling. I was so tired at the end of the trip but definitely worth it!

ノースショア（ハレイワ）観光　選べるアクティビティ（シュノーケル・カヤックなど）＜1日／ワイキキorアウラニ・ディズニー・リゾート＆スパ発＞

I managed somehow even though I'm not good at English (laughs). 英語が苦手でもなんとかなりました(笑)

Reviewed by: Maki

A noticeable small bus welcomed us at the meeting point. There were a total of 17 tour participants, with only 3 Japanese, and all explanations were in English. There was a self-introduction time, so we needed to briefly introduce ourselves in English, mentioning where we were from, how many times we had been to Hawaii, and what we were looking forward to on this tour.

Now, although it has been corrected, I was worried because the tour course I signed up for was supposed to go directly from Honolulu to Haleiwa Town, but it deviated from the course midway. We switched from Freeway H1 to H3, passed through Kaneohe on the east coast, and headed north along the coastline. After passing the famous filming location Kualoa Ranch, we took a restroom break at Tropical Farms. Here, we could sample macadamia nuts and had the experience of cracking the nuts out of their shells with a stone. After a break at a fruit stand, we went to Sunset Beach. It was November, and surfers were challenging the high waves.

Then, the morning activities began, and we chose to take a walk at Waimea Falls Park. The entrance fee to the park was included in the tour price, and the guide paid for it. The course to the waterfall was rich in nature and very relaxing. The water volume of the waterfall was abundant due to the rainy season, which was enjoyable, but during the dry season, the water volume is low, so it's something to be cautious about depending on the date of your visit. We could swim near the waterfall, but it was murky, so we didn't swim. Since we had some time before the meeting time, we had lunch there.

After that, we moved to Haleiwa Town, and in the afternoon activity, we tried SUP (stand-up paddleboarding). The location was behind a shop called Surf & Sea, and life jackets were available at no extra charge. The tour guide provided instruction, and while it was easy to get on the board, standing up required some skill. We could also paddle while sitting on the board, which was enjoyable, and I was thrilled to encounter a sea turtle up close.

Although I was worried because the tour was in a language I didn't understand, I was helped by a friendly guide and friendly tour companions.

目立つ小さなバスが集合場所まで出迎えてくれました。
ツアー客は総勢17人で、その中で日本人は3人だけ、全て英語での説明となります。
自己紹介タイムがあるので、どこから来たのか、ハワイは何回目か、このツアーに期待しているものなど簡単に英語で紹介する必要があります。
さて、現在は訂正されていますが、申し込んだ時のツアーコースはホノルルからハイレワタウンへ直行だったのが途中からコースから外れていたので心配しました。フリーウェイH1から途中H3に移り、東海岸のカネオヘを通過し海岸線を北上。映画のロケ地で有名なクアロア・ランチを通過後、トロピカルファームでトイレ休憩しました。ここではアカデミアナッツの試食ができ、また殻から石でナッツを取り出して食べる体験ができました。その後、フルーツスタンドで休憩した後、サンセットビーチに行きました。行ったのは11月で、サーファー達が高い波に挑戦していました。その後、午前のアクティビティが始まり、私達はワイメア滝公園での散歩を選択しました。公園へは入場料はツァー料に含まれ、ガイドが払ってくれました。滝までのコースは自然が豊かでのんびりと楽しむことができました。滝の水量は雨季だったので豊富で楽しめましたが、乾季は水量が少ないので行く日程によっては注意が必要です。滝壺近くで泳ぐこともできましたが、濁っていたので泳ぎませんでした。集合時間まで時間があったのでここでランチを済ませました。その後、ハレイワタウンに移動し、午後のアクティビティではSUP(スタンドアップパドル)に挑戦しました。場所はサーフ&シーという店の裏で、ライフジャケットは追加料金なしで利用できました。指導はツァーガイドが行い、簡単にボードに乗ることはできましたが、立ち上がるにはコツが要ります。ボードの上に座ったまま漕ぐこともできるので十分楽しめましたし、至近距離でウミガメに遭遇したのに感動しました。なお、貴重品ボックスと荷物を入れるロッカーは簡易なものだったので盗難を心配しましたが、特に問題ありませんでした。集合時間になったらバスに乗り、途中でトイレ休憩後、ホノルルまで送ってくれました。
日本語が通じないツアーだったので心配しましたが、親しみあるガイドと友好的なツアー仲間に助けられました。

Make sure you wear water shoes that can tolerate walking on rocks if you get in at the waterfall! And while paddle boarding, I saw a turtle then ate gelato at one of the vendors near the lake!
