All Reviews for Trolley & Shuttle to Attractions

The beach house in Haleiwa had a great view of the ocean, and the food was delicious! This time I had loco moco and a cheeseburger. I've been to Haleiwa a few times, so I'm happy that the tour only provides transportation and allows for a longer stay. I plan to use it again next time!

ハレイワのbeachhouseは、海が見えて、料理も美味しかった❣️今回はロコモコとチーズバーガーを食べました
ハレイワは何回か行ってるので、送迎だけのツアーで滞在時間が長いのは、うれしい😃
次回もまた利用するつもりです

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！

The bus arrived 15 minutes before the meeting time, so I was relieved to recognize it right away. While looking for various activities during my free time, I found an event that piqued my interest and made a reservation. Since it was a new service, I boarded with excitement. The female staff member greeted us cheerfully in Japanese and explained the equipment very thoroughly. The device can be adjusted to fit each individual, allowing for a personalized setup. Once the video started, multiple power stones appeared. By using my palms to grab them, I could hear various explanations about Hawaii's history.

As a tip for grabbing, I was able to catch several by quickly and firmly grabbing them. My husband mentioned that it was difficult to react with long sleeves, so it might be better to roll them up. While listening to various scenery and explanations in the video, we quickly reached the final stop. The staff were very cheerful, and I was grateful that they took photos for us after getting off the bus.

集合時間の15分前にはバスも到着しており、このペイントなので直ぐにわかり安心しました。
スキマ時間に色々探していた所、未体験で興味を持ったイベントを見つけて予約しました。まだ新しいサービスとの事でワクワクしながら乗車　スタッフの女性は日本語で明るく接して頂き、装置説明もとても丁寧に教えていただきました。頭に装置をセットし個々に合わせてサイズ調整も可能な為、自分サイズでセット出来ます。映像が流れだすとパワーストーンがいくつも現れます。自分の手のひらを使ってグッとつかみゲットするとハワイの歴史や色々な説明を聞く事ができます。
つかみ方のコツとして私は素早くグッとつかむ感じでいくつもゲット出来ました。主人は服の袖口が長いと反応しづらいと言ってたので袖口はまくってた方が良いかもしれません。映像で色々な景色や解説を聞きながらアッと言う間に終点。
スタッフの方がとても朗らかでバス降車後に写真も撮って頂きありがたかったです。

Picked up on time, arrived at Diamond Head with plenty of time to take pictures etc. Family friendly tour, the malasadas were so yummy! Great views, no rush to finish the hike.

The sunrise at the summit was breathtaking, the hike up is a bit hard as it is dark out, but the views from the top make every step worth it!

"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」
朝お腹が痛くなりトイレ行ってきます。とお伝えし、集合時間に3分遅れてしまったのですが、その後の車の中でぐちぐち嫌味を言われました。

新婚旅行でそんな嫌味を言われたら気分も悪くなり、サービスに相当するチップを渡したら「いらないよ！」といわれ、かなり嫌な気持ちになりました。

サービスに対するチップを渡しただけなのですが、車の中には最低20ドルを出してください。と記載がされていた様で、「え？こんな思いさせといて？」という気持ちでいっぱいです。

ガイドさんが当たれば楽しいと思いますが
安いツアーでもないので当たり外れがあるツアーを申し込みするくらいなら、やめた方がいい思います笑

個人的には、もう利用しません。

This tour allows you to fully enjoy Haleiwa. There is plenty of time, and the mini tour takes you to places that are not accessible on foot, so I was really satisfied. Since I participated on a Sunday, I finally got to try the famous Huli Huli chicken. It was delicious.

ハレイワを存分に満喫出来るツアーです。
時間はたっぷりあるし、ミニツアーでは、徒歩では行けない場所を案内して頂けるので、ほんとに大満足でした。
今回は日曜日に参加したので、念願のフリフリチキン。
美味しかったです。

I had a great time with 90 minutes at Dole and 120 minutes at Haleiwa, and the driver was very proficient in Japanese. I was satisfied to finally enjoy the Dole train and the Huli Huli chicken in Haleiwa!

ドール90分、ハレイワ120分とゆっくり時間が取ってあり、かつ、日本語に堪能なドライバーさんで大変良かったです。念願のドールのトレインとハレイワのフリフリチキンが食べられて満足しました！

It was my first horseback riding experience, and the guide kindly assisted with explanations, allowing me to enjoy it without any worries. Riding along the beautiful coastline was a rare experience. At the viewpoint, they took individual photos for each of us with our smartphones, which became a nice memory. In the end, I rewarded the horse that carried me with some treats. It was truly fun. The free time in North Shore, where you can get off in front of your favorite shops, is also a big plus!

初めての乗馬体験でしたが、ガイドの方が親切に説明のアシストをしてくださり、何の不安もなく楽しむ事ができました。
キレイな海沿いをのんびり乗馬するのは貴重な体験です。
ビュースポットで、1人1人丁寧にスマホで写真を撮ってくださり、記念になりました。
最後は、自分を乗せてくれたお馬さんにエサのご褒美。
本当に楽しかったです。
ノースショアでの自由時間も、好きな店の前で下車できるのも、ポイント高いかも！

I had a great time moving around leisurely while enjoying the scenery to reach my destination. When I go to Hawaii, I mainly rely on the trolley for transportation, so I use it every time.

目的地まで色んなところを回るため、景色を見ながらのんびり移動でき、楽しかったです。
ハワイに行く時はトロリー移動が主なので毎回お世話になっています。

I visited before and it was so great that I'm coming back. It's more of a walk up a slope than trekking, so I think it's perfect for beginners and elderly people. The scenery while walking slowly was amazing. Especially coming down while looking at the ocean felt incredibly refreshing. I'm glad I came to Hawaii. The driver was very energetic and explained the scenery until we arrived at Makapu'u, and he even made a stop for a restroom break, which was very considerate. On the way back, I asked to stop at Ala Moana instead of the hotel (since it was on the way), and they accommodated my request. Thank you!

以前行った時に、とても良かったので再来訪です。トレッキングというよりは、坂道を歩くので、トレッキング初心者やお年寄りの方には最適かと思います。ゆっくり歩いて眺める景色は最高でした。特に海を見ながら降りて来るのが最高に気持ちいいです。ハワイに来て良かったと思います。ドライバーの方がとても元気な方で、マカプウに到着するまでの景色の説明をしてくれ、途中でトイレにも行ってくれて、気遣いが素敵でした。帰り、ホテルではなくアラモアナに寄って欲しいと言ったら（通り道だったので）、対応していただきました。ありがとうございます。

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.

出発3週間前に6月下旬の日曜日でスムーズに予約完了。当日もスムーズな受付と乗車、日本人8名と外国人3名で現地に向かう。
ドライバーさんは日本語対応、現地での説明もスムーズでわかりやすい。
私達は行き、帰り共に降車時にチップを渡しましたが、他の方達は渡している様子は、、、、、？
現地5時間でしたが、時間が全く足りませんでした。
港で降車し、ハレイワボールとコーヒーで朝食を摂り、surfnseaで買い物。ブラブラしながら南下しマツモトshave iceを食べた後、フリフリチキンで約1時間は並びましたが無事にgetし、camaronと共に昼食を取りました。その時点で残り2時間弱のため、地元のスーパーや寄りたかった店を飛ばし、Patagoniaと coffeeGALLARYで時間となりました。
昼前からは観光客も増えてきました。移動は1時間程度掛かりますが、案外直ぐです。
楽しかったのでまた行きたいです。

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！

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。

I signed up with my grandparents in their 70s. One great point was that the admission fee for Diamond Head was included. It took about 20 minutes to get from the hotel to the Diamond Head parking lot, and it took about an hour to hike up and around 30 minutes to come back down, giving us plenty of time to look at souvenirs. We also enjoyed the driver explaining the sightseeing spots during the ride!

70代の祖父母と申し込みました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの入場料込みなのも良い点でした。ホテルからダイヤモンドヘッドの駐車場まで20分程度で到着し、行きは1時間程度、帰りは30分程度で下山することができ、お土産を見る時間も十分ありました。
車中では、ドライバーの方が観光スポットの説明をしてくれたのも楽しめました！

Yet again another excellent tour from VELTRA and Operators. Bus driver Tommy was funny and more importantly on time, he gave us all the information we needed. We climbed at 9am and did it in 20mins as we wanted a workout. Spent some time at the top, taking in the views. Made our way down slowly, sat under the trees in the park and waited to be collected by Tommy. All done by 1130am. Perfect!

The Viking was a bit tiring, but it was worth the climb! The view was spectacular. The guide was also very kind. I'm glad I participated.

バイキングは少し疲れましたが
登る価値あり！
絶景です。
ガイドさんもとても親切でした。
参加して良かったです。

This tour includes optional mini-tours that take you to places that are difficult to reach on foot, such as the Balance Rock and the North Shore sign. You can visit all the places you want, and there was plenty of free time, so I was able to fully enjoy the experience.

このツアーには自由参加のミニツアーがあり、バランスロックやノースショアの看板など歩いて行くには難しいところも連れて行ってくれます。行きたいところに全て行くことができ、自由時間も十分にあったのでしっかり満喫できました。

I had a long stay, and the driver was Japanese, which made for wonderful memories. If I have the chance again, I would definitely like to use your services.

滞在時間も長く
運転手の方も日本人で
最高な思い出が出来ました。
又、機会があったら是非
よろしくお願いします。

This tour also included a local mini tour. Since we had some extra time, we decided to extend our trip and took THE BUS to TEDS Bakery. We were very satisfied after eating plenty of pies and loco moco. The tour driver shared various stories during the mini tour and provided guidance, which made it really enjoyable. Meeting the sea turtles was also the highlight!

このツアーには現地のミニツアーも付いていました。時間に余裕があったので、さらに足を伸ばしてTHE BUSを使ってTEDS ベーカリーまで行きました。パイやロコモコをお腹いっぱい食べて大満足でした。ツアーのドライバーさんもミニツアーでいろいろなエピソードを話してくれたりガイドもしてくれて本当に楽しかったです。ウミガメに会えたのも最高でした。

The warm malasadas absolutely hit the spot after the intense climb!

This tour was the perfect way to start the day in Oahu. Getting picked up early was great to get to reach Diamond Head in time for sunrise views, absolutely worth the early wake-up.

After the mini tour, I was dropped off at a place of my choice, which was very helpful. I was also able to relax at the beach and had plenty of time to enjoy sightseeing!

ミニツアーのあとは、好きなところで降ろして頂けたので、とても助かりました。
またビーチでゆっくりする事もでき、時間に余裕をもって観光できました！

I was able to see beautiful scenery, and it was great that I could take photos along the way. This is my second time on this line, and I would like to ride it again!

綺麗な景色を見ることができ、途中写真撮影もさせていただけ良かったです。
このラインは二度目ですが、また乗車したいと思います！

The Dole Plantation tour was great, allowing us to efficiently visit Haleiwa. The guide shared various information on the bus, providing insights into Dole's history and recommended spots in Haleiwa before we arrived. I don't understand much English, but I was able to understand everything well enough using a translation app on my smartphone.

The Dole pineapple soft serve was rich in flavor and delicious. Although the price is a bit higher, I recommend the soft serve with pineapple topping.

ドールプランテーション、ハレイワ観光と効率よく回ることができ、良いツアーでした。バス内でガイドさんが色々な情報を話してくださり、ドールの歴史やハレイワのおすすめスポットなど到着前に情報インプットができました。英語はあまりわかりませんが、スマホの翻訳アプリを使えば、十分理解することができました。
ドールのパイナップルソフトは味が濃厚で美味しかったです。価格は少々プラスになりますが、パイナップルトッピングのソフトをお勧めします。

I was glad that there were many buses. I think the interval between the next bus was just right. Be careful as it shakes quite a bit inside the trolley.

バスの本数が多いめでよかったです。次のバスの時間もちょうど良い間隔だったと思います。トロリー内は結構揺れるので注意です。

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!

I was able to eat whatever I wanted and see various things in Haleiwa, and the mini tour helped me get to places that are difficult to reach on my own. At first, I was unsure about the mini tour, but since it was just the two of us participating, it ended up feeling like a private tour, which was great.

ハレイワは好きなようにあれを食べたりこれを見たりとできましたし、ミニツアーは自力では行き難い場所に連れていってもらえて助かりました。
最初はミニツアーはどうしようかと思っていたけど私たちだけが参加で、結果プライベートツアーのようで良かったです。

We went directly to the North Shore without stopping and arrived early. The shop opening times varied, but we enjoyed eating acai bowls and browsing around the town as the shops opened. We had plenty of time, about five hours, to leisurely have lunch and take our time exploring the stores, making for a meaningful experience. On the way back, we also went non-stop and arrived in Waikiki in about an hour. I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises.

ノースショアまで、ノンストップで、直行し、
早い時間に到着。ショップの開店時間はまちまちでしたが、、アサイーボールを食べたり、開店したお店をみながら、街をブラブラ。
5時間と時間たっぷりですが、昼食をノンビリたべたり、お店をゆっくり見たり、有意義な時間を過ごしました。帰りもノンストップで、１時間程度で、ワイキキに到着しました。
機会があれば、また参加したいです。

This tour was absolutely amazing and our driver Pattrick was the best part! He was so polite, friendly and made us feel like in home! We loved him! Thank you Pattrick!!!
