I used this service for my honeymoon trip on July 28, 2025.
First of all, our driver, Jonah, was incredibly kind and spoke Japanese very well. It was enjoyable to hear little local insights while we drove around to various photo spots.
Along the way, we stopped at the Kahuku Sugar Mill and Haleiwa Town, which had many shops. It was helpful that Jonah recommended some places for us.
Although it was a one-day tour, he played music during the drive and allowed us to take breaks, which was great for recharging our energy.
Personally, I think sandals might be a good choice since we also stopped by the beach. We took photos with just our feet in the water at Sunset Beach.
He also introduced us to some recommended places around Waikiki, like "Maguro Brothers" (for poke bowls) and "Aloha Kitchen" (where we had eggs benedict and fruit soufflé pancakes), both of which were delicious!
Without a car, it would be quite difficult to get around on your own, so this tour was packed into one day and left us very satisfied! We were able to fit in lots of photos, great food, souvenirs, and memories!
Thank you, Jonah!
2025.7.28に新婚旅行で利用しました。
とにかくドライバーのジョナさんが親切で、日本語が上手で、写真スポットを巡りながら、ドライブ中の地元の人しか知らないプチ情報を聞くのも楽しかったです。
途中のカフク砂糖工場や、ハレイワタウンではたくさんのお店がありましたが、おすすめを紹介してくれたので助かりました。
1日のツアーでしたが、途中音楽だけにして休憩させて下さったので、エネルギーチャージしながら程よく休めたのも良かったです。
個人的には海にも寄るので、サンダルが良いかもしれないです。
私たちはサンセットビーチで足だけ海に入って写真を撮ってもらいました。
ワイキキ周辺のおすすめのお店も紹介して下さった、『マグロブラザーズ』(ポケ丼)と『アロハキッチン』(エックベネディクトと果物のスフレパンケーキを食べました)もすごく美味しかったです!
車がないと自分で周るには中々行き着けないし大変なので、1日にぎゅーーっと詰まった、大満足ツアーでした!!
写真もグルメもお土産も思い出も沢山詰め込めました!
ジョナさんマハロ!
サンダルがおすすめ

The guide shared various stories about Hawaii during the trip, which was very informative. In Haleiwa Town, we were first given a tour of the restrooms and attractions by car, and then we had free time to explore, so we could enjoy sightseeing without getting lost. I think it was a good decision to take the tour since it would take a long time to go by bus.
道中にガイドさんがいろいろなハワイの話をしてくれて勉強になりました。ハレイワタウンも最初に車で一通りトイレや見どころなどの案内をされてから自由行動でしたので、迷わずに観光できました。バスで行くと時間がかかるのでツアーにしてよかったと思います。
Thank you for participating in the North Shore tour with Island Makana Tours. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed it, and our driver is happy as well. Please consider using Island Makana Tours again when you visit Hawaii. Mahalo,

First, regarding the location, it's fine to meet at the intersection with traffic lights. There’s a sign right nearby.
The guide is really great, so even those who are not good at English will be totally fine.
It's a more authentic course than you might think. Your clothes and face will get dirty. At the end, there are wet wipes available, and there’s also a simple wash station to clean up. I've been to Hawaii several times, but this is the most interesting experience, so I highly recommend it to everyone. It’s about a 40 to 50-minute taxi ride from Waikiki hotels, costing around $60.
まず、
場所ですが信号機がある交差点で良いです。
そこからすぐの所に看板があります。

I would recommend using this service if you are planning on seeing the North Shore town of Haleiwa. No worries about parking or getting delayed in traffic.

Our guide, Jonah, was very kind and taught us many things while we were sightseeing! This is my fifth time in Hawaii, but I discover something new every time. I think this slightly niche plan is great for those who have visited several times, as it offers a classic experience with a little extra!
For lunch, there are not only Giovanni's garlic shrimp but also many food trucks, which is fantastic. My daughter had pizza, I had a shrimp and poke bowl, and my husband had the large burger in the photo.
There are also restrooms conveniently located, so I think families with children can participate without worry. Every time, the tours from Veltra have been a hit!
ガイドのジョナさんがとても親切でいろんなことを教えてくれながら観光できました!
ハワイは5度目ですが、毎回新しい発見があります。
ちょっとマニアックなこのプランは何度か来ている人には王道プラスアルファで良いと思います!
ランチもジョバンニのガーリックシュリンプだけではなくて、いろんなフードトラックがめっちゃあるのでいいです。うちは娘がピザ、私がシュリンプとポキの丼、パパは写真のデカいバーガーでした。
トイレも要所要所にちゃんとあり子供連れでも安心して参加できると思います。

It was a concentrated tour that allowed us to enjoy pineapples and various sightseeing spots in Hawaii. I signed up for the tour because I wanted to visit the Dole fields and factory, and I felt it was at a satisfying level, providing even more experiences than I expected.
From our hotel in Waikiki, we took a car, and the guide, who was alone, had an incredible amount of knowledge about the various famous spots in Hawaii along the way, including the Dole fields and factory.
It seems that Dole is a different company from the Dole Plantation, which is a tourist attraction across the street. I mistakenly thought that if we went to the Dole Plantation ourselves, we could have the same factory tour. Since we wouldn't have been able to visit the fields and factory without signing up for this tour, I believe it was a valuable experience. (After the factory tour, we had a little time to visit the Dole Plantation, where we could also buy souvenirs.)
At the fields, we were able to see the harvesting and had fresh pineapples cut right there. After the factory tour, we enjoyed cold cut pineapples and straight pineapple juice produced at the factory, which made me very happy. (They also offer coffee and chocolate tastings, and there are some small souvenirs for sale.)
After that, we went to Haleiwa for some free time, and later at the macadamia nut souvenir shop, we could taste many samples and buy souvenirs. Additionally, we visited two coffee shops where we had restroom breaks and could taste a lot of coffee.
On the way back, we took photos of King Kamehameha and, even from the car, we could see Hawaii's Izumo Taisha, Chinatown, and wall art while listening to the guide share a lot about Hawaii's history, which was educational.
I think it was a very fulfilling day.
パイナップルづくしと各所のハワイ観光ができて濃縮したツアーでした。
ドールの畑や工場見学がしたくて、申し込んだツアーでしたが、満足できるレベルでしたし、それ以上の体験ができたと感じています。
ワイキキのホテルから車に乗って、道中の所々のハワイの名所からドールの畑や工場の案内まで、お一人でされていたガイドさんの知識量は凄かったです。
ドールは畑・工場と、向かい側にある観光名所のドールプランテーションとは違う会社のようで、自分たちでドールプランテーションに行けば同じ工場見学ができると勘違いしていました。今回のツアーに申し込まないと畑と工場の見学はできないので、貴重な体験だったと思います。(工場見学後にドールプランテーションにも少し行く時間があったので、そちらのお土産も買うことができました。)
畑では収穫の見学時に畑のパイナップルをその場でカットしていただけて、工場見学後も冷たいカットパインと工場で製造しているストレートのパイナップルジュースをいただけてパイナップルづくしで幸せでした。(コーヒーやチョコレートの試食、ちょっとしたお土産も売っています。)
その後、ハレイワに行って自由行動と、その後、マカダミアナッツのお土産屋さんではたくさん試食ができてお土産も買えました。
その他にも二か所コーヒーショップに行けてトイレ休憩もコーヒーの試飲がたくさんできました。
帰りはカメハメハ大王の写真を撮ったり、車中からでも、ハワイの出雲大社、チャイナタウン、ウォールアートを見ながら帰れましたし、ガイドさんのハワイの歴史をたくさん聞きながら勉強にもなりました。
とても、充実した1日になったと思います。
Free time goes by quickly, so it's a good idea to decide where you want to go in advance. Also, since I received a whole pineapple as a souvenir, I felt it was great to have brought a cutting board an
自由行動の時間はあっという間なので、どこに行きたいか決めておくと良いです。
また、お土産にパイナップルを丸々いただくので、ホテルでカットするためのまな板とナイフを持って行って良かったと感じています。

This was my second visit to the North Shore. Last time, it was part of a tour, and we only had about two hours, just enough time to eat garlic shrimp and Matsumoto Shave Ice.
This time, my goal was to have Huli Huli chicken, take photos at the Haleiwa sign, have a surfing lesson, and leisurely explore the North Shore. I was worried about renting a car, and taking the bus would be a waste of time... I thought I’d be tired on the way back... so how would I get to the Haleiwa sign? That’s why I chose this tour with Veltra.
With two groups participating, we arrived around 8:30 AM, and the driver kindly took us to the Haleiwa Town sign first, as I wanted to take photos with my whole family there. I was very happy about that.
There are some shops that open at 9 AM, but it seems the Huli Huli chicken place opens around 9:45, so we had about 30 minutes to walk around Haleiwa Town. By lunchtime, there was a huge line, so it was great that we arrived early.
The chicken was crispy, juicy, and very delicious. It was quite filling. We split into two groups for the surfing lesson and exploring Haleiwa Town & mini tour. The other group seemed to go snorkeling, so it ended up being just my mother and me for the mini tour, and they adjusted the timing for us.
This mini tour exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend participating if you have no other plans! The additive-free soap from the soap factory was incredibly good for my sunburned skin during my stay in Hawaii, and I wish I had bought more. We enjoyed tasting and touring at the coffee factory, and the park with balance rocks was surrounded by magnificent nature, which was very healing. Luckily, we saw three sea turtles basking in the clear water! It would have been difficult to get there on my own, and I couldn’t walk for long in the heat, so I was glad I participated.
On the way back, the driver kindly asked if they should pick us up at the beach for the surfing lesson. Although it was a different company, the surfing lesson seemed to be very good, and my whole family enjoyed it.
If I could wish for anything, it would be to have one more hour to relax, but overall, it was a very satisfying experience at the North Shore! Thanks to our kind driver. Thank you!
ノースショアは2回目のリベンジです。前回はツアーに組み込まれており、2時間ほどしかなく、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終わりました。
今回の目的はフリフリチキンと、ハレイワ看板で写真、サーフィンレッスン、ノースショアをゆっくり散策したい、です。
レンタカーは怖いし、バスは時間のロス…帰り疲れてそうだし…ハレイワの看板まで何で行く?…ということでこのベルトラのツアーにしました。
2組の参加で朝8:30頃には到着し、ドライバーさんにワガママを言って先にハレイワタウンの看板まで連れてってくださいました。家族全員で看板と写真を撮りたかったのでとても嬉しかったです。
9時からオープンのお店も所々ありますが、フリフリチキンは9:45頃開店らしいので、30分ほど持て余しハレイワタウンを歩きました。お昼頃は大行列になってたので朝早くて良かったです。
チキンはパリパリジューシーでとても美味しかったです。ボリュームたっぷりでした。
サーフィンレッスンと、ハレイワタウン散策&ミニツアー参加で家族二手に別行動しました。
もう一組の参加者はシュノーケルに行ったみたいで、ミニツアーは母と2人だけの貸切でしたので、時間も合わせてくださいました。
このミニツアーが期待以上で、特に予定なければ参加をオススメします!
ソープファクトリーの無添加石鹸が、ハワイ滞在中の日焼けで荒れた肌に、ものすごく良くてもっと買えばよかったです。コーヒーファクトリーで試飲と見学を楽しみ、バランスロックのある公園が壮大な自然で、自然に癒されました。運良く透明度の高い海でホヌ3匹が甲羅干しをしているのを見れました!自力では行きにくく、暑さで長く歩けなかったので、参加して良かったです。
帰りにサーフィンレッスンのビーチまで迎えに行こうかと聞いてくださり優しかったです。別の会社ですが、サーフィンレッスンもとっても良かったみたいで、家族全員楽しめました。
欲を言えば、もうあと1時間あれば余裕があって嬉しいですが、全体的にとても満足のいくノースショアになりました!
親切なドライバーさんのおかげです。
ありがとうございました!
Since it opens at almost 10 AM, it's a good idea to research what you want to do and which stores to visit in advance to avoid wasting time. Be sure to join the mini tour! If you're going, I recommend
ほとんど10時開店なので、何をしたいか、どのお店に行くか先に調べておくと時間のロスありません。ミニツアーはぜひ参加してみてください!せっかくなのでレイズのチキンのために土日に行くことをオススメします!

"Be punctual."
I had a stomachache in the morning and informed them that I needed to go to the restroom, but I ended up being three minutes late to the meeting time. After that, I was subjected to snide remarks in the car.
If I were to hear such comments on my honeymoon, it would really ruin my mood. When I tried to give a tip that corresponded to the service, I was told, "I don't need it!" which left me feeling quite unpleasant.
I only handed over a tip for the service, but it seemed like there was a requirement to give at least $20 in the car. I was filled with the feeling of, "What? After making me feel this way?"
I think it could be fun if you get a good guide, but since this isn't a cheap tour, I would recommend avoiding tours where you might get lucky or unlucky.
Personally, I won't be using this service again.
「時間厳守」

Three weeks before departure, I smoothly completed the reservation on a Sunday in late June. On the day of the trip, the check-in and boarding went smoothly, and we headed to the destination with eight Japanese and three foreigners. The driver spoke Japanese, and the explanations at the site were smooth and easy to understand.
We gave tips when getting off both on the way there and back, but it seemed like others didn't do the same...?
We had five hours at the location, but it was definitely not enough time. After getting off at the port, we had breakfast with a Haleiwa Bowl and coffee, then shopped at Surfnsea. While strolling south, we had Matsumoto Shave Ice, and although we waited about an hour for the Huli Huli Chicken, we successfully got it and had lunch with Camaron. At that point, with less than two hours remaining, we skipped local supermarkets and stores we wanted to visit, and ended up at Patagonia and Coffee Gallery just in time.
Tourists started to increase around noon. The travel time is about an hour, but it surprisingly goes by quickly. I had a great time and would love to go again.

We wanted to spend our time without rushing around too much, so we didn't have enough time. Watching other tourists, I noticed some groups splitting up to go buy things from Giovanni in the south.
自分達は余りあくせく動き回らずに過ごしたいので、時間が足りませんでした。
他の観光客を見ていると、手分けして、南の方のジョバンニなどを買いに行っている組もありました。

The visit to the pineapple plantation was very good. Haleiwa was relatively quiet, and I was able to visit all the places I wanted to go. I was able to eat at Giovanni's without any wait. The guide, Nori, was also wonderful, making it a very good tour.
パイナップル園の見学は大変良かったです。
ハレイワも比較的空いていて行きたいところもすべて行けました。ジョバンニは待ち時間なしで食べられました。
添乗のノリさんの対応も素晴らしく、大変良いツアーでした。
Be sure to visit the pineapple farm. I think it's educational for families with children as well.
パイナップル園はぜひ行って下さい。
子ども連れも勉強になると思います。

This time there were three groups participating.
At the sightseeing spots, they took photos for us and provided explanations, which made everything easy to understand.
Hanauma Bay was very beautiful, and I wanted to go snorkeling next time.
For lunch, we could choose from many places, including food trucks at the Kahuku Sugar Mill.
I was thrilled to stop by Leonard's Malasada truck, which wasn't on the schedule, and enjoy the hot malasadas.
今回は3組の参加
観光場所では写真を撮ってくれたり説明もしてくれたり分かりやすかったです。
ハナウマ ベイはとてもきれいで次回、スノーケルをしたくなりました。
昼食はカフクシュガーミルでのフードトラックなど沢山の店の中から選べます。
予定になかったレナーズのマラサダのトラックに寄ってもらい熱々を食べれて感激しました。

We participated as a group of four. We arrived at Haleiwa in about an hour. We got off at the beach park and leisurely explored the shopping area. Along the way, we stopped by a local supermarket, checked out Matsumoto Shave Ice before it opened, and enjoyed the charming old town streets. There was a line at Giovanni's before it opened, but it moved quickly, and sharing between two people was perfect; the flavor truly lived up to its reputation as the original.
Due to road construction, we couldn't get off to take a photo of the sign, so we took pictures from inside the car. We saw the balance rock and were very lucky to spot a honu in the nearby sea. ✌️
One of the highlights of this tour was being able to hear various stories from our Japanese driver, including insights about culture and the economy. The five hours flew by. Mahalo!
4組での参加でした。ハレイワまでの1時間程で到着。ビーチパークで下車しショッピングエリアまでのんびり散策しました。途中で地元のスーパーマーケットに寄ったり、開店前のマツモトシェイブアイスを見たり、古き良き街並みを楽しめました。開店前のジョバンニには行列ができていましたが、回転がよく、2人でシェアできてさすが元祖と言われる味わいでした。
道路工事をしていて下車して看板を撮ることはできず、車内からの写真を撮りました。バランスロックを見て、近くの海ではホヌも見れてとてもラッキーでし✌️
日本人ドライバーさんの説明や文化や経済までいろんなお話を聞くことができたのが、このツアーのいい所でした。5時間はあっという間でした。マハロー!
Since the store opening hours vary, it's better to plan your route in advance.
お店の開店時間がまちまちなので、回るルートを事前に計画した方がいいです。

A great option if you don’t want to rent a car but still want to get a feel for the different sides of the island. We left with a deeper appreciation for Oahu’s beauty and culture.

We will arrive around 8:40, but most shops, except for cafes, open at 10:00, so we will have some time to spare. We took a morning walk around the beach, relaxed at a cafe, and then went to buy Giovanni's Shrimp right when it opened. It was great to eat before it got crowded. We also joined a mini tour, and the driver shared a lot of interesting information, which was fun. We even saw sea turtles by the rocks.
8:40くらいにつきますが、カフェを除き大体のお店は10:00オープンなので、少し時間を持て余します。
私たちは朝海の周りを散歩してカフェに入りゆっくりしてから、ジョバンニのシュリンプをオープン時間に合わせて買いに行きました。混む前に食べられて、よかったです。
ミニツアーも参加したらドライバーの方が詳しくいろいろ教えてくれて楽しかったです。岩のところで海亀も見れました。

Our driver Alan was great - very funny and knowledgeable. We were able to see the highlights of Oahu in a way that didn't feel rushed or like we spent too much time in any one place. It was nice to get outside of Honolulu and see less crowded parts of the island.
Come hungry! There's lots of great meals and treats to pick up along the way.
Hello Hawaiifan
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you had a great day with Alan. He really knows the Island well. Glad you were able to eat a lot of great food as well. We do a lot of great food around the island. Thank you so much for choosing us and hope you enjoyed your stay in Hawaii.

We were lucky enough to be hosted by Stephanie who was just awesome. Saying awesome is an understatement as she was much more than that. When my sister and her family were here a few months ago, they were hosted by Stephanie and had nothing but good things to say. Their experience is why we booked the same tour and she was very knowledgeable about the island and very welcoming. Thank you Stephanie for such a nice experience!!!
You will not be disappointed with Stephanie!

I recommend sandals. If you're going into the sea, I think clothes that can be rolled up, like shorts or a dress, are good! It seems better to have a towel, sunscreen, and drinks as well!
