North Shore's Best Zipline Tour by CLIMB Works - Oahu’s Longest Zip Course

Awesome experience!

Reviewed by: Joelle , 2022/01/29

My husband and I had a wonderful experience at Climb Works Zipline. The guide were super fun and encouraging. I was pretty nervous before the first zipline, but the guides helped me feel safe and informed. By the last zipline, I felt very comfortable. The area is gorgeous- beautiful farm land with a view of the ocean. I cannot recommend this enough. We had a great time! I would definitely do this again!

North Shore Hiking Tours from Haleiwa with Expert Local Guide & Lunch

Great hike with amazing views and awesome guide!

Reviewed by: Tim & Meosha, 2022/01/07

Very happy with the entire experience. Ryan was awesome to have as a guide. Would definitely do it again. Hike was super fun and informative, and the river crossings and swimming hole at the end of the first half was great. Nothing but great things to say!. Thanks Ryan for the awesome day and super chill time today. Can't wait until the camping experience is up and running so I can take another trip out here and sign right up!

Gunstock Ranch Oahu Horseback Riding Tours - Sunset & Daytime Rides

Total blast - even with rain

Reviewed by: Mary, 2021/12/31

This was a nice easy ride. Our group took a bit longer because we had so many horses stop for bathroom breaks - one stopped 3x!! The wranglers were awesome! We had Cole and Hannah (Montana). Although it was wet and windy we still got some great views of the ocean. I was lucky enough to ride Autograph who has been in movies and TV shows like Magnum PI & Hawaii Five-O. She was a great horse. We enjoyed the ride a lot and would definitely come back for the longer ride next time.

Amazing time!

Reviewed by: William, 2021/12/05

Dallas, Jamie, and Bailey were amazing tour guides! They were super nice and helpful and patient with all of us! They had great information during the tour like the kinds of plants grown on the farm we zipped over and background on the history of Oahu! Unfortunately because of very bad rain we had to skip line 6 which I heard was the best one for safety reasons! I would definitely go again if I’m in Oahu!

Waimea Valley Toa Luau & Free Admission Entry Ticket to Waimea Falls

Best Luau on the Island. Not just a show, a real family experience.

Reviewed by: Michael B, 2021/11/22

Easily the best Luau on the island. Real hands on experience for the whole family.
This was certainly the highlight of our week in Hawaii. We stayed at the Hilton Lagoon Resort in Waikiki. Our condo overlooked their Luau which we watched twice from our balcony. I can only describe their Luau as trip to McDonald's. It was big and all but was certainly nothing special and nothing personal. They seat about 400 people with most tables seated far away from the stage. Compare that to our experience at Toa Luau and it was like fine dining as compared to a trip to McDonalds. Toa opens up with hands on experiences for everyone. While the guests do not get to climb a coconut tree they do show how it has been for hundreds of years. Guests are given the opportunity to peel off the husks, crack a coconut, and shred the meat. The above ground cooking oven was quite interesting. From there we started with the stage show and took a tour of the Pacific Islands. This is the Luau you want to attend, you will not be disappointed.

Reviewed by: Gavin, 2021/10/17

It was truly awe inspiring to see these amazing animals in the wild. The crew was informative and helpful. The waters were choppier than normal, so there was some sea sickness, but that wouldn’t stop me from doing it again. Completely loved it!

Oahu North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience - Daytime & Sunset Tours

Amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Kari, 2021/09/22

Lexi was the name of our tour guide and she was friendly, experienced, funny and really provided my husband and I, a quality trail ride through North Shore’s Paradise.

Lexi reminded me of my home town friends whom I rodeoed with since I was a kid. After talking with her, instantly we shared memories and stories of our childhoods and our love for horses. It was my husbands first time on a horse so it was so fun sharing my passion with him. We enjoyed the scenery and the horses we're great. We rode “Mo mo” and “Trapper”. The whole experience from start to finish was excellent. I highly recommend Hawaii Polo Ocean Front Trail Rides to anyone who wants a few hours out on beautiful horses exploring the North Shore. Mahalo Lexi! Good luck in your future endeavors!

Mahalo!

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

Had a fantastic time

Reviewed by: Dmitry, 2021/09/14

Saw lots of Sharks! They come real close up! Crew was professional and very nice. There were 2 groups of 6 people each that took turns in the shark cage on our trip. Just be aware that while waiting on the boat for your turn (or waiting for the other group to finish their shark encounter) you are stuck on the boat and it can get real rocky. If you are prone to se sickness take proper precautions! My girlfriend was prone to sea sickness and suffered a bit while waiting on the boat but she made it through. All in all it was a great experience!!

One Ocean Diving Hawaii Shark Dive on Oahu & Snorkel Tour Experience

Amazing & above expectations!

Reviewed by: Jon, 2021/09/09

This experience was AMAZING! At peak, I counted 12 sharks swimming around & below us. A few of the large ones came level with us to check us out! It was intimidating & inspiring! Plus, there just happened to be a large barracuda where we anchored who seemed as curious by us as we were of the sharks!
I'll admit that I was intimidated at the thought of being cageless. When I saw the barracuda at the nose of the ship I was all the more intimidated. But, this was why I did cage-free, i wanted to stomp this fear/intimidation.
We were in the water for a long time (I think 30 to 40min). At around 20min I decided to let go of the ship & just swim around a bit with the sharks & the barracuda! I cannot describe the full experience. It was amazing being in a "foreign land" (the ocean) with these incredible creatures!
I got my money's worth & more and I absolutely will do another cage-free dive next time I visit! I've found a new love with this experience!
Also, the three employees who led our escapade were great, interactive, & friendly.
I highly recommend people bring a go-pro & selfie stick. Also, let go of the boat, even if briefly.

Jamie O'Brien Surf Experience - North Shore Surfing Lesson at Turtle Bay

Wills the man!

Reviewed by: Asefi, 2021/09/07

I booked the lessons online having never been to Oahu or the north shore, but when i found out it was at Turtle bay Resort I knew it was the right place to be.(Forgetting Sarah Marshall was filmed there), but ya probably knew that!!
They have a little canopy set up next to the resort loading doc, very easy to find.

Will have us some basics on paddling, and standing up. Right after Dry instructions we hit the water. My wife and i were so eager to ride as for we are avid snowboarders for 20yrs. Let me tell you it’s a little different than riding a mountain. Like will said majority of the time you are paddling just to ride a 20sec wave, but it’s all worth it.
Next time we are going to surf all days in Hawaii.
Thanks again Will!!!

Thank you for a fantastic ride and the sunset was absolutely beautiful. We truly enjoyed our ride and the horses. We saw a stunning Rainbow the colors were so vibrant and the rainbow looked as though it went straight into the ocean. The guides were some of the best on the island and were very knowledgeable about the horses and their personality and their likes and dislikes. Beautiful scenery and would this to anyone who is visiting Oahu.
