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＞

The horses are well-trained, making it enjoyable and safe even for beginners. よく馴致された馬で初心者でも安心して楽しめます

Reviewed by: まさひろ

The Dole Plantation, which we stopped by along the way, was surprisingly enjoyable. I had a delicious pineapple soft serve and added to my collection of unique penny stamps.

The horseback riding at Makakeha Beach offers beautiful scenery, and the horses are well-trained, making it a safe and enjoyable experience even for beginners. There is a brief explanation of basic reins handling at the start, but generally, the horses follow the one in front automatically, so there's no need to worry.

途中に立ち寄るDolePlantationが意外と楽しめます。おいしいパインソフトを食べ、ここでしかないペニースタンプのコレクションが増えました。
MakakehaBeachの乗馬はとても景色がよく、馬もよく馴致されており初心者でも安心して楽しめると思います。最初に簡単な手綱さばき説明がありますが、基本お馬さんたちはオートマで前の馬についていくので心配しないでください。

First time horseback riding in Haleiwa. 初めてのハレイワ乗馬

Reviewed by: みみみ

I usually don't write reviews, but I decided to do so because the tour guide left a very good impression on me. The guide was Japanese and shared various information about Hawaii during the bus rides to and from the destination.

Additionally, while reading other reviews, I noticed that some mentioned a very tight schedule where they only went horseback riding and couldn't explore Haleiwa. However, it seems that this has improved, as we had time to spend in Haleiwa. After enjoying coffee in Haleiwa, we went horseback riding, took about 30 minutes to eat garlic shrimp, and then relaxed at the Dole Plantation before returning to Waikiki. The horseback riding along the beach was leisurely for about an hour, and it was a wonderful experience.

I was also happy that the guide took photos for us and was very proactive.

普段口コミを書かないんですが、ツアーガイドさんがとても好印象だったので書くことにしました。
日本人？の方で、行きも帰りも移動中のバスの中でハワイのことを色々と話して下さってました。
また、他の方の口コミを見るとあまりにもタイトスケジュールで乗馬だけしてハレイワは散策出来ないとありましたが、改善されたのかハレイワで過ごす時間もありました。
ハレイワで珈琲飲んだ後に乗馬して、ガーリックシュリンプを30分くらいかけて食べ、ドールプランテーションでゆっくり過ごしワイキキへ戻りました。乗馬も海辺を1時間くらいゆっくり乗馬して
とても素敵な時間でした。
ガイドさんが、写真撮ってくれたり率先してくれたので嬉しかったです。

Decent tour

A really good tour with an excellent tour guide that gave tons of Hawaiian history. The snorkeling spot was incredibly rocky and definitely not for a beginner or child. Loved all the hawaiin history and "Cap" was great but not worth the money in my opinion.

I had the best experience! 最高の体験ができました！

Reviewed by: なーこ

I was picked up in Waikiki, and the driver explained the history while we first went to the Dole Plantation! We stayed there for about 30 minutes, including a bathroom break, and then headed to the town of Haleiwa!

The location was absolutely amazing! I felt reassured because the horseback riding instructions were provided in Japanese on the bus beforehand.

Once we arrived, the staff were very attentive, checking in on us and asking if we were okay, which made them friendly and approachable.

I've had a few horseback riding experiences before, but if I come back to Hawaii, I would definitely want to book here again!

ワイキキでピックアップしてもらい、運転手さんに歴史等説明してもらいながらまずドールハウスへ行きました！そこでトイレ休憩含め30分程滞在し、いよいよハレイワの街へ！
とにかくロケーションが最高でした！乗馬の説明も事前にバス内で日本語でしてもらえたので何より安心でした！
現地に着いてからもスタッフさんがよく説明とこちらの様子を伺い、大丈夫？と声をかけてもらったり、フレンドリーで親しみやすかったです。
乗馬体験は数回したことがありますが、またハワイに来たらこちらで予約したいです！

Horseback riding on the North Shore. ノースショアで乗馬

Reviewed by: KOU

During the drive, I found it fascinating to hear about the origins of Hawaii and current stories from the guide in Japanese. The Dole Plantation was also a perfect spot for a restroom break and souvenir shopping. The main horseback riding was guided by a kind elderly couple who owned the ranch, and it was enjoyable to ride through the forest course. Having only six people in the group made it relaxing and fun. It was my first time horseback riding, but it felt similar to walking a dog, and I was able to control the horse well. In Haleiwa, I tried the garlic shrimp that the guide recommended, and it was the best I've ever had. On the way back, I fell asleep and we quickly arrived in Waikiki. I'm glad I experienced this tour.

ドライブ中はガイドさんから、日本語でハワイの起源とか現在の話が聞けて興味深かった。
また、ドールプランテーションも丁度良いトイレ休憩とお土産購入になった。
メインの乗馬も牧場主の優しい老夫婦の案内で林間コースを回った。
人数が6人と少なかったのが良かったのか、のんびりして楽しかった。
乗馬は初めてだったが、犬の散歩と似ていてコントロールでき、良い子だった。
ハレイワでは、ガイドさんが教えてくれたガーリックシュリンプを食べたが、今までで一番美味しかった。
帰りは、寝てあっという間にワイキキに着いた。
このツアーは体験して良かった。

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole

Great tour of the island

Reviewed by: Mitch

I've been to the island dozens of times over the last 50 years and this tour was one of the highlights of all the visits.

Our pickup time was 6:40am from the Ala Moana Hotel. This is right next to a major shopping mall with ample parking. After a few more pickup locations, at various hotels, we were on our way.

Our driver, Danny (Driver of the year), was outstanding. He not only provided us with island history, but his own personal experiences growing up on the island, while pointing out many points of interest as we spent the day traveling around the island. As we approached each of the stops throughout the day, Danny played a brief video describing the highlights of the next destination.

The bus was clean and comfortable, with an onboard restroom. Bottled water was available throughout our entire tour.

We made our way out of Waikiki, traveling east through the neighborhoods to our first stop at the Halona Blowhole where Danny provided us with a tasty taro poi malasada (a purplish colored glazed donut that was outstanding). We spent about 15-20 minutes taking in the sights, before heading off to our next stop.

We arrived at our next stop, the Pali Lookout, about 20 minutes later. The views down to Kaneohe Bay were amazing. Again we had 15-20 minutes to enjoy the view and take photos.

A short time later we arrived at the Byodo-In Temple. After ringing the bell for luck, you can walk thru the Temple and around the grounds and koi ponds.

After leaving the Temple, we enjoyed an hour long drive along the coast, including amazing views of the North Shore, before arriving in Haleiwa town.
Here you'll have 90 minutes to enjoy lunch from one of the many food establishments.

The final stop in the tour was the Dole Pineapple Plantation, before returning to Honolulu where we got to view the Iolani Palace, and the King Kamehameha Statue.

The nine and a half hours flew by and was time well spent.

Best way to get an overview of the island

Reviewed by: Elizabeth

We were lucky to be the first pick up of the day and got front row seats! The views out the windshield and side windows really enhanced the experience. We were also lucky to get Driver of the Year “Danny”. Danny shared personal stories, island folklore, history and lots of other informational tidbits that kept the passengers interested and engaged in between stops. Although it was overcast most of the day and we did get rained on, the stops and views did not disappoint. I would recommend this tour for those wanting to get a good overview of the island, take in the sights and to help plan where to visit or explore for a longer period of time. Our 15 year old son and friend also really liked it.

So I had the privilege of taking all my family to a trip to Hawaii but because getting a rental car can be a pain an expensive I decide to splurge and just book tours that included transportation…. Who wants to drive around during a vacation… it was all out first time to Hawaii so now that I know all the good spots I can’t wait to go back and explore on my own… we did the Royal star circle tour and it was worth it… it had a/c, a bathroom, opportunities for snack time and a hell of a spot for amazing local lunch options… we got to see up close and some spots actually explore the main hot spots of this amazing island… it’s so green and has a bit of the city flair but the locations that you get to see on this tour really show you the real Hawaii… I had a driver by the name of kalani! He was so funny and attentive to the littles ones in my group… the picture don’t do the trip justice… so if your looking for easy and a lot to check off in one day then this trip is for you… little warning… the day of the week determines on how busy some of the tourist location will be … I went on a Sunday and most places were packed! Another tip is sit on the passenger side of the bus it makes for great water views!
