North Shore Local's Journey Tour from Turtle Bay with Snorkel & Beach Time

Perfect taste of the North Shore

Reviewed by: Tara S.

I feel like our time staying in the North Shore would've felt incomplete if not for getting to explore it with Aina, our personal local! We saw gorgeous places we likely never would've seen on our own, learned a surprising amount about O'ahu's history and culture in a casual way, got more familiar with the town and even returned to places on our own, enjoyed greeting Aina's friends and family along the way, got some great recommendations on where to eat, and that's just off the top of my head! Aina was very easy to be around, and his tour was a highlight of our stay. Mahalo!

I participated in a tour with an English guide. 英語ガイドのツアーに参加しました

Reviewed by: ぽち

I don't speak English at all. Due to scheduling, I booked an English tour, but Chris, our driver, spoke to us in Japanese, so there were no difficulties.

We were the only Japanese participants, but I was very grateful that he provided explanations in Japanese at key points.

The tour content was relaxed and enjoyable. I felt reassured that everything proceeded according to schedule.

I was informed that I could receive a discount at Dole, but the staff there didn't seem to notice? I later realized that I ended up shopping at the regular price. I think it's better to proactively remind them when shopping.

It got a bit long, but I was able to participate in the tour without worrying about not understanding English. Thank you, Chris!

英語は全く話せません。スケジュールの関係で英語ツアーを予約しましたが、ドラバイバーのクリスさんが日本語で話して下さり不自由がなかったです。

日本人参加は私達しかいなかったのですが、要所要所で日本語で説明して下さったのがとても有り難かったです。

ツアー内容もゆったりしていて良いです。スケジュール通りの進行で安心しました。

ドールでは割引が受けられると説明を受けてましたが、ドール側の店員の方に気付いて貰えず？定価での買い物になった事に後から気付きました。買い物をする時は自分から忘れずにアピールした方がいいと思います。

長くなりましたが英語が分からなくても安心してツアーに参加出来ました。クリスさんありがとうございました！

A comfortable half-day tour for four participants on a large bus. 大型バスに参加者4人でゆったり半日ツアー

Reviewed by: Kaedecountry

It was an English-guided tour, but our driver, Chris, could speak Japanese as his grandparents were from Naha, Okinawa. The bus was a large one with a restroom in the back, but there were only four participants, including myself, which made it very comfortable.

On the way to Dole Plantation, we could enjoy sightseeing from the bus window, including the statue of King Kamehameha. At Dole Plantation, we had 90 minutes of free time, and in Haleiwa, we had just over two hours. It's nice to have the freedom to explore Haleiwa at my own pace and eat lunch wherever I like, rather than being on a tightly scheduled tour.

The meeting point was in front of Ross Dress for Less on Seaside Avenue, but on the way back, Chris dropped us off near our hotel. Thank you, Chris!

英語ガイドのツアーでしたが、ドライバーのクリスさんは祖父母の方が沖縄の那覇出身らしく日本語も話せました。後方にトイレも付いている大型のバスですが、当日の参加者は私も含めて4名だけ。とても快適でした。

ドールプランテーションまでの道中も、カメハメハ大王像などの観光を車窓からでき、ドールプランテーションでは90分、ハレイワの町では2時間強のフリータイムがありました。キツキツの行くところが決まったツアーより、こういう自分のペースでハレイワの町を散策でき、ランチも好きなところで食べられるのはいいですね。

集合場所は、SeasideアベニューのRoss dress for lessの前でしたが、帰りはホテルの近くで降ろしてくれました。クリスさん、ありがとうございました！

I had a great time. The ocean was very beautiful and amazing! In the morning, I jumped off the diving rock (it was quite impressive), enjoyed snorkeling, and had a blast in the water. In the afternoon, I did stand-up paddleboarding and strolled around Haleiwa a bit. I was able to play a lot throughout the day.

Everything was in English, so it might be difficult if you can't speak it at all, but the staff were very kind.

とても楽しかったです。海がとてもきれいで最高ですね！午前中は飛び込み岩から飛び込んだり（結構すごいですよ)、シュノーケルをして海遊びを満喫し、午後はサップをして少しハレイワの街を散策しました。一日中たっぷり遊べました。

English may be essential. 英語は必須かも

Reviewed by: シータ

Out of 16 participants, we were the only two Japanese. On the bus, we introduced ourselves in English, and if you're proficient in English, you'll have a great time. The guide was kind, but we understood more than half of the content. In the morning activities, swimming was prohibited at the waterfall in the botanical garden due to lack of rain (the waterfall itself was dry and not flowing), so I recommend snorkeling. The kayaking was just under an hour on the river. The stops along the bus route included a coconut farm, a fruit stand (a roadside shop), and a shopping mall (single-story). We bought a papaya for $4 at the fruit stand (it was perfectly ripe and very delicious when we ate it at the hotel), and we had Matsumoto's shaved ice at the shopping mall. We had plenty of time and enjoyed ourselves.

参加者16人中、日本人は私たち２人だけ。バスでは英語で自己紹介をするなど、英語が堪能であれば十分楽しめます。ガイドさんは親切でしたが、私たちは半分以上内容を理解できませんでした。午前中のアクティビティーは、植物園の滝は雨不足で水泳禁止だったので（滝自体、枯れ枯れで流れていません）、シュノーケリングをお勧めします。カヤックは川で１時間弱。バスの途中立ち寄り場所は、ココナッツ農園、フルーツスタンド（道路脇の売店）、ショッピングモール（平屋）でした。フルーツスタンドでパパイアを１個$4で買い（ホテルで食べたら、食べごろでとてもおいしかったです）、ショッピングモールでマツモトのかき氷を食べました。時間的には余裕があり楽しめました。

Perfect for those who only want to enjoy the Dole Pineapple Garden and the North Shore. ドールパイナップル園とノースショアだけを楽しみたい方に最適

Reviewed by: たまさん

Among the many tours available, I chose this one because it focuses on two locations and ends early in the afternoon, which was very appealing. In the end, it was a great decision.

Our driver, Lola, was very friendly and provided various information during the ride. She spoke very clear English, so even those who are not familiar with the language can participate without any issues. She also clearly communicated the return times to the bus, which was reassuring.

Before heading to the Dole Plantation, we had a sightseeing stop in downtown and visited the King Kamehameha statue. During the ride, we were offered malasadas from Kamehameha Bakery and water, which were delicious.

We arrived at Dole before it opened, and Lola accompanied us to the ticket booth. We were the first to ride the Pineapple Express train.

Additionally, since Royal Star Hawaii was the organizer, they informed us that by showing our tour guest sticker, we could get one free topping for the pineapple ice and a 25% discount on shopping at the Dole Plantation, which was a great deal.

Later, on the North Shore, Lola recommended some great shops, and I really appreciated her generous service.

During our trip, the bus stopped at Haleiwa Town Center, making it very convenient to visit places like Surf & Sea, Alii Beach Park, and Camaron Shrimp Truck.

On the way back, she continued to provide sightseeing information and safely drove us back to our hotel. The tour ended around 3:00 PM, so we were able to enjoy it without getting tired.

盛りだくさんのツアーがあるなかで、このツアーは2か所に絞って午後の早い時間に終わるのが魅力で申し込みました。結果、大正解でした。
ドライバーさんのローラさん(Lola）はとてもフレンドリーで車内で色々と案内してくれました。また、とても聞き取りやすい英語を話してくださるので英語が不慣れな方でも参加問題ありません。バスに戻りの時間もはっきりと教えてくれるので、安心できます。
ドール園に向かう前に、ダウンタウン観光やカメハメハ大王像での降りての観光がありました。車中では「カメハメハ・ベーカリー」マラサダとお水を提供してくれ、美味しくいただきました。
ドールでは開園前に到着しチケット売り場までローラさんが付いてきてくださいました。そして一番にパイナップルトレインに乗ることができました。
また、ロイヤルスター観光が主催者だったのですが、ツアー客のステッカーを提示するとパイナップルアイスのトッピングがどれでも一つ無料になる事やドール園でのお買い物が25％オフになることを教えてくれたのでとてもお得になりました。
その後のノースショアではお勧めのお店を紹介してくれたりとサービス精神豊富なローラさんに感謝です。
私たちの時はバスをハレイワタウンセンターに停めたので、サーフ＆シー、アリイ・ビーチパーク、Camaron Shrimp Truckなどの行くのにとても便利でした。
帰りも車中から観光案内してくださり、安全運転でホテルまで送ってもらいました。ツアー終了後でも15：00ぐらいでしたので、疲れることなく楽しめました。

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.

Full Day Tour of North Shore & Waimea Valley Waterfall Swim - Go Tours Hawaii

A great full day bus tour that takes you around Oahu island.

Reviewed by: Lisa Tao

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!

They came to pick us up near the hotel as scheduled. There were four groups on the bus, and we were the only Japanese. During the ride, the driver shared information about Hawaii's history in English.

After arriving at Dole, we had malasadas and mineral water for breakfast. The driver also explained how to buy tickets and recommended food options.

After the Dole experience, we went to the North Shore. Although we couldn't go to the famous sign, the driver introduced us to notable spots before parking, and then we had free time. We could stop by Matsumoto Shave Ice, garlic shrimp, Patagonia, and more.

On the way back, we visited famous spots around Waikiki, like King Kamehameha, while the driver provided commentary as we headed towards Waikiki. We were able to give a tip comfortably.

Our guide Lola was very friendly, and it was the best tour! Since it was an English-only tour, we were a bit worried about our ability to keep up with just everyday conversation. However, Lola, although she hardly spoke any Japanese, spoke slowly and clearly, making it easy to understand, and we had a great conversation.

She also guided us through the buildings and areas along the way, which was fun.

I thought Dole might be somewhat underwhelming, but it was actually very spacious and we enjoyed it a lot. The souvenir section is really large. Haleiwa had a completely different atmosphere from Waikiki, which was refreshing. There were so many places to eat that it was hard to choose, but the garlic shrimp was very delicious. We gave up on the long lines for shave ice and huli huli chicken. Instead, we went to Ali Beach and were thrilled to encounter a honu drying its shell!

ガイドのLolaがとても良く接してくれて、最高のツアーでした！
英語のみのツアーということで、日常会話程度ならなんとか…というレベルの我々は大丈夫かなと少し心配しながら参加しました。
しかし、確かにLolaは日本語はほとんど喋れないものの、ゆっくり聞き取りやすく話してくれて、会話も弾みました。
また、道中の建物やエリアなどもガイドしてくれて楽しかったです。

ドールは、なんとなくショボいのかなと思っていましたが、とても広く十分楽しめました。
お土産コーナーがすごく広いです。
ハレイワは、ワイキキとは全く違う雰囲気で新鮮でした。
食べる所が多く選ぶのに困りましたが、ガーリックシュリンプとても美味しかったです。

A tour that allows for efficient sightseeing during free time. It's enjoyable to just hop on the bus and explore without thinking too much! Although it was a bus tour, it was very efficient and offered plenty of free time, so I was able to go around without any stress. Our driver, Chris, was fluent in Japanese and even though it was an English tour, he provided guidance in both English and Japanese! He drove skillfully, so there was no worry about motion sickness. The conversations during the tour and the explanations at each landmark were excellent, making the travel time enjoyable!

At the Dole Plantation, we had pineapple soft serve, which was quite a large portion, so sharing between two people is recommended. After about 20 minutes, we arrived at Haleiwa, where we had two hours of free time and received a recommended map, making it easy to explore! We enjoyed both the pineapple burger and garlic shrimp recommended by our driver before heading back. It was a very fun time!

I managed somehow even though I'm not good at English (laughs). 英語が苦手でもなんとかなりました(笑)

Reviewed by: Maki

A noticeable small bus welcomed us at the meeting point. There were a total of 17 tour participants, with only 3 Japanese, and all explanations were in English. There was a self-introduction time, so we needed to briefly introduce ourselves in English, mentioning where we were from, how many times we had been to Hawaii, and what we were looking forward to on this tour.

Now, although it has been corrected, I was worried because the tour course I signed up for was supposed to go directly from Honolulu to Haleiwa Town, but it deviated from the course midway. We switched from Freeway H1 to H3, passed through Kaneohe on the east coast, and headed north along the coastline. After passing the famous filming location Kualoa Ranch, we took a restroom break at Tropical Farms. Here, we could sample macadamia nuts and had the experience of cracking the nuts out of their shells with a stone. After a break at a fruit stand, we went to Sunset Beach. It was November, and surfers were challenging the high waves.

Then, the morning activities began, and we chose to take a walk at Waimea Falls Park. The entrance fee to the park was included in the tour price, and the guide paid for it. The course to the waterfall was rich in nature and very relaxing. The water volume of the waterfall was abundant due to the rainy season, which was enjoyable, but during the dry season, the water volume is low, so it's something to be cautious about depending on the date of your visit. We could swim near the waterfall, but it was murky, so we didn't swim. Since we had some time before the meeting time, we had lunch there.

After that, we moved to Haleiwa Town, and in the afternoon activity, we tried SUP (stand-up paddleboarding). The location was behind a shop called Surf & Sea, and life jackets were available at no extra charge. The tour guide provided instruction, and while it was easy to get on the board, standing up required some skill. We could also paddle while sitting on the board, which was enjoyable, and I was thrilled to encounter a sea turtle up close.

Although I was worried because the tour was in a language I didn't understand, I was helped by a friendly guide and friendly tour companions.

目立つ小さなバスが集合場所まで出迎えてくれました。
ツアー客は総勢17人で、その中で日本人は3人だけ、全て英語での説明となります。
自己紹介タイムがあるので、どこから来たのか、ハワイは何回目か、このツアーに期待しているものなど簡単に英語で紹介する必要があります。
さて、現在は訂正されていますが、申し込んだ時のツアーコースはホノルルからハイレワタウンへ直行だったのが途中からコースから外れていたので心配しました。フリーウェイH1から途中H3に移り、東海岸のカネオヘを通過し海岸線を北上。映画のロケ地で有名なクアロア・ランチを通過後、トロピカルファームでトイレ休憩しました。ここではアカデミアナッツの試食ができ、また殻から石でナッツを取り出して食べる体験ができました。その後、フルーツスタンドで休憩した後、サンセットビーチに行きました。行ったのは11月で、サーファー達が高い波に挑戦していました。その後、午前のアクティビティが始まり、私達はワイメア滝公園での散歩を選択しました。公園へは入場料はツァー料に含まれ、ガイドが払ってくれました。滝までのコースは自然が豊かでのんびりと楽しむことができました。滝の水量は雨季だったので豊富で楽しめましたが、乾季は水量が少ないので行く日程によっては注意が必要です。滝壺近くで泳ぐこともできましたが、濁っていたので泳ぎませんでした。集合時間まで時間があったのでここでランチを済ませました。その後、ハレイワタウンに移動し、午後のアクティビティではSUP(スタンドアップパドル)に挑戦しました。場所はサーフ&シーという店の裏で、ライフジャケットは追加料金なしで利用できました。指導はツァーガイドが行い、簡単にボードに乗ることはできましたが、立ち上がるにはコツが要ります。ボードの上に座ったまま漕ぐこともできるので十分楽しめましたし、至近距離でウミガメに遭遇したのに感動しました。なお、貴重品ボックスと荷物を入れるロッカーは簡易なものだったので盗難を心配しましたが、特に問題ありませんでした。集合時間になったらバスに乗り、途中でトイレ休憩後、ホノルルまで送ってくれました。
日本語が通じないツアーだったので心配しましたが、親しみあるガイドと友好的なツアー仲間に助けられました。

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

Highly recommend 10/10

Reviewed by: 50th Birthday w my Crew

18 of our group of 24 went on this excursion. A few things- SAM was absolutely fantastic! So much knowledge- loved it! The fruit stand was awesome, the macadamia nuts stop was great, we were able to get great souvenirs at the best prices, treats, coffee- delish, bathrooms were clean and staff provided an excellent experience. We did the Waterfalls (definitely recommend) in the morning and had lunch at the cafe/bar there. Everything we ordered was delicious and the drinks were amazing. Then we did kayaking, SUP and some exploring aka shopping and tastes of local foods, LOL. So glad to have taken this excursion. Sam even had ice in the cooler.

The North Shore was amazing, and as expected for a championship event, the huge waves were impressive. I even encountered a sea turtle while paddleboarding. It was a great tour.

初ノースショア、さすがチャンピオン大会が開催されるだけありもの凄い大波に感動。SUP中にウミガメにも遭遇。良いツアーでした。

I SWAM IN A WATERFALL‼️

Reviewed by: PQ

The tour was fun! Our Drivers gave us information about sites as we drove along! We stopped at the macadamia nut farm and fruit stand!! He gave us options about what was available for us to do! I was with a big group, we chose hiking to the waterfall and kayaking/paddleboarding!! The hike was along a paved road so not much hiking but swimming in a waterfall was worth it!! Make sure you wear water shoes that can tolerate walking on rocks if you get in at the waterfall! And while paddle boarding, I saw a turtle then ate gelato at one of the vendors near the lake!
Overall 9/10 experience!!! Would have loved to have gone to the beach as well but time didn’t permit
