The cheerful driver provides sightseeing explanations in English at key points. If you want to see the city, take the Red Line. For local dining, use the Green Line, and for views of Diamond Head's crater and the East Coast, take the Blue Line. It's a bit pricey, but it's an efficient way to tour, and it's safe, so I'm glad I took it every day. I definitely got my money's worth! By the way, during the first week of my stay, I used the trolley, and in the second week, I used the local bus. The trolley is a relaxed way to travel and is definitely fun!
陽気なドライバーさんが要所要所で英語で観光説明してくれます。街を見るならレッドライン。ローカルダイニングに行くならグリーンライン、ダイアモンドヘッドのクレーターや東海岸の景色
ならブルーライン。少しお値段は高いけど、効率良く観光できて、治安も安全なので、毎日これに乗って良かった。しっかりと元を取れましたよ!
ちなみに、滞在1週間目はトローリー、2週間目は地元のthe busを利用しました。トローリーは、気楽に旅できて、断然、楽しいです♪

I was picked up on schedule. The meeting point was the hotel name, but when I read the voucher carefully, it turned out to be the trolley stop facing the street. The horseback riding was enjoyable as we walked along the coast. My stay in Haleiwa was just under an hour, which was perfect for me. I also enjoyed the recommended garlic shrimp, which was delicious.
スケジュール通りに送迎してもらいました。待ち合わせ場所がホテル名でしたが、バウチャーをよく読んだら実際は通りに面したトロリー乗り場でした。乗馬は海沿いを歩いて楽しく過ごしました。ハレイワでの滞在時間は1時間弱でしたが私にはちょうどよかったです。オススメのガーリックシュリンプも美味しくいただけました。

We had a wonderful time on this adventure to the north shore on Oahu. Cousin G was our guide and he did a great job taking care of us and keeping things lively. He was so knowledgeable of the history and the area and all the ins and outs of where to go. He was really funny, too! Waimea falls was beautiful and the next stop we opted for paddle boarding. We didn't see any sea turtles, but it was still fun and peaceful. We had a small group of 10, which I don't think is usual, but it was a treat for us because we could move around easily and quickly get in and out of places. We'd highly recommend this to anyone!!

Last time (December 2019), there were 10 routes, making it difficult to choose, but due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19, there were only 4 routes available this time. However, it was exactly the route I wanted to see, so it was very helpful. I think the driver did a great job providing a lot of information in English. (I didn't understand the meaning very well, though...)
前回(2019年12月)は10路線もあり選ぶのが大変でしたが、まだコロナの影響で4路線しか有りませんでした。ですが、丁度見に行きたい所の路線でしたのでとっても助かりました。運転手さんが英語で沢山案内してくれてとても良かったと思っています。(英語の意味は良く分からなかったですが・・・)

My husband and I took the North Shore Tour hoping to get a bit of everything - activities, beach, relaxation and fun. We got what we wanted and more. We had Cousin G who made everyone feel comfortable and entertained, and made the tour engaging and funny.
The tour had a good balance of free/activity time and many choices to choose from. We did the waterfall and kayaking option and was one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii.
We also got the chance to sight see the east and north side of Oahu and had many stops for photos and breaks.
We felt like we got our moneys worth from this trip and got to see and do a lot on the island in just a 8am - 5pm timeframe.

During my stay on Oahu, I always make sure to visit the North Shore, regardless of the season. I usually rent a car for the duration of my stay, but rental car prices have skyrocketed since the end of the pandemic.
Since I'm familiar with the North Shore, I decided to use a shuttle service instead of renting a car. Although I didn't have any activities planned, I was able to spend a decent amount of time there and was satisfied with my visit. If I had done activities like horseback riding, I would have had very little time left. Not having to drive made it quite easy for me. I think this is a good option.
オアフ島滞在時には必ず季節を問わずノースショアにはいっています。いつもはレンタカーを滞在期間中借りているのですが、コロナ明けでレンタカー料金はバカ高い。
そこで、勝手知ったるノースショアですので、レンタカーの代替として送迎のみで利用しました。アクティビティなしなので、滞在時間は十分とは言えませんが、それなりに取れ満足です。乗馬などをするとほとんど滞在時間はなくなりそうです。車を運転しないので、結構ラクチンでした。こういう方法もありだなと思います。

I'm glad I was able to easily go to Waikele, especially since there are few one-time tours available. However, it was disappointing that a few people did not arrive on time for the return bus, causing a delay of over 30 minutes. While this is more of a passenger etiquette issue than the bus's responsibility, I believe there should be a reminder that the bus will depart at the scheduled time, and if someone is late, they will need to find their own way back.
単発のツアーが少ない中、ワイケレに楽に行けて良かったです。帰りのバスの時間で、数名の方が時間通りに来ず、30分以上遅れる事があり残念でした。こちらのバスの責任というより、乗客のマナーの問題ですが、発車時刻に発車。来られなかったら、自分でお帰ることになるなどの注意喚起が必要だとも思いました。

There are four color-coded routes, with the pink route primarily providing hotel transfers to Ala Moana Shopping Center. This time, I used the red route for downtown and the green route for Diamond Head and a local snack restaurant. The driver provided very polite travel guidance and personalized service. Although it was in English, the Hawaiian accent made it a bit difficult for Japanese speakers to understand. Please note that except for the pink route, the other routes run once an hour, with the last departure from the starting point at 3 PM.
4色のコースがあり,頻繁にあるピンクは主にアラモアナショッピングセンターへのホテル送迎です。
今回レッドでダウンタウンをグリーンでダイアモンドヘッドと地元の軽食レストランを利用しました。ドライバーが大変丁寧な旅行案内と個別の対応をしてくれました。英語ですが,ハワイアンのアクセントがあり,日本人には少し聞き取りにくかったです。
ピンク以外は1時間に1本で午後3時までに最終が出発地点を出ますので,注意してください。

Enjoyed snorkeling wish we would of seen turtles though. Kayaking time was limited we had to go back to the bus to head back to Waikiki. We did get to visit the small towns on our way to North Shore that grows fresh vegetable and fruits, I think the two stops caused us to use up time on the water activities.

I rode a horse for the first time in my life, and it seemed very well-trained, so I didn't feel scared at all! The sea and mountains were incredibly beautiful, and time flew by in nature. Just looking back at the photos I took brings back such joyful memories.
During the drive to the North Shore, the local guide shared fascinating stories in Japanese about Hawaii's development history and geographical features! They even listened to traffic updates on the radio and planned the best route, making it a very meaningful experience!
Now, I want to go on the canyon plan next.

The canyon horseback riding has chosen a coastal course for its renewal. It's the best view while looking at a local beach that's different from Waikiki! The horses are well-trained and very smart.
In a small group, there were two couples, including us, on their honeymoon. The actual experience starts with just a simple lecture before getting on the horses. There’s no practice, just a full-time horseback riding experience!? They will take photos for you, but if you want to capture moments while riding, it's handy to have a strap to hang around your neck.
Also, the horseback riding experience is divided into two sessions. If you make a last-minute reservation, you might be assigned to the second session. The second session makes it a bit tricky to explore Haleiwa, so if you want to enjoy Haleiwa as well, I recommend booking early. If you want to eat garlic shrimp without waiting, the first session might be better!
Since I had a packed schedule afterward, I got dropped off near Ala Moana. The driver, Kaz, was very helpful. I had a wonderful experience!
Next time, I want to participate in the canyon horseback riding. Thank you!
渓谷乗馬がリニューアルのため海辺のコースを選択しました。ワイキキとはまた違ったローカルなビーチを眺めながら、最高の景色です!
良く調教された馬ちゃんで、とってもお利口です。
少人数のグループで、私達も含めハネムーナの2組。
実際の体験は簡単なレクチャーだけで乗馬スタートです。
練習などはなく、フルタイム乗馬体験!?
写真も撮ってくれますが、乗馬中を撮影したいなら、首から下げたストラップがあると便利です。
また、乗馬体験は入れ替えの2部制です。予約がギリギリだと2部にまわされます。
2部だと、ハレイワの町の散策がビミョーなので、ハレイワも楽しみたい人は早めの予約をオススメします。
ガーリックシュリンプを待たずに食べたい人は1部の方がいいかも!

Unlike in Japan, there is no one to pull the horse for you, so you have to move the horse yourself. However, since the horses are trained, they will follow the horse of the staff member in front of you.
Being a private beach, the sea was very beautiful.
The horseback riding guide only speaks English, but during the bus ride to the location, the guide explains how to ride and control the horse, so even beginners or those who are not confident in English can feel at ease.
I’m really glad I experienced this. It became my best memory from my time in Hawaii.
日本と違い、馬を引っ張ってくれる方はついておらず、自分たちで馬を移動させるといったイメージです。が調教されているので、前にいるスタッフさんの馬に勝手について行ってくれます。
プライベートビーチということもあり、海がとてもきれいでした。
