クライムワークス・ケアナファーム ジップライン体験(3時間) オアフ島最長800メートルのラインでノースショアの大自然と絶景を満喫<7本>

It's just so refreshing! とにかく気持ちいい!

Reviewed by: やすお&まゆみ

We were the only ones picked up, and it was a comfortable drive in a beautiful sedan! When we arrived at the farm, none of the staff spoke Japanese, but they were very friendly! While waiting, I chatted in broken Japanese with the person next to me, and it turned out she was the instructor's mom! Climbing the hill in a 4WD Jeep was an impressive attraction in itself! Not only did we go down seven zip lines, but there was also a suspension bridge along the way, and we got to taste tomatoes, all while enjoying the beautiful scenery—it was the best!

お迎えは私たちだけで、綺麗なセダンで快適なドライブ!
ファームに着くとスタッフは日本語誰も話せないけど、とてもフレンドリー!
待ってる間にカタコトで隣の人と話してると、その方はインストラクターのママでした!
4駆のジープで坂道を登りそれだけでも立派なアトラクション!
7本のジップラインを下るだけでは無く途中に吊り橋あり、トマトの試食有りで景色も良く最高!

Enjoying horseback riding for the first time on the North Shore. 初めての乗馬、ノースショアを満喫

Reviewed by: hammer

In Japan, it seems that you can't really go horseback riding without a license, so I wanted to challenge myself in Hawaii and participated. I enjoyed canyon horseback riding at a place called Happy Trails. There are explanations in Japanese, and the instructor teaches you how to handle the horses in broken Japanese, so there's no need to worry about handling the horses. The horses are trained for polo and were surprisingly calm, which was very soothing.

When you think of Hawaii, the image of beaches is strong, but I enjoyed a different side of Hawaii's scenery.

As a note, the red dirt can get quite messy, so it's better to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty.

After horseback riding, we stopped by a beach with sea turtles, but overall, the schedule moved quickly, and the day ended in no time.

日本ではライセンスを取らないとなかなか乗馬はできないようなのでハワイでチャレンジしたいと思い参加しました。
Happy Trailsというところで渓谷乗馬を楽しんできました。
日本語の説明書きが書いてあるし、インストラクターの方がカタコトの日本語で馬の扱い方を教えてくれるので、馬の扱い方は心配ないです。馬もポロ用に訓練された馬で驚くほどおとなしく癒されました。
ハワイというとビーチのイメージが強いですが、また違うハワイの景色を堪能しました。

注意事項ですが、結構赤土で足元が汚れることがあるので汚れてもいい恰好で行ったほうがいいですね。

今回は乗馬の後海亀のいるビーチに寄りましたが全体的に乗馬以外は駆け足でスケジュールが進みあっという間に一日が終わってしまいました。

  • Happy Trailsの入り口

  • 今回お世話になったリズちゃん

  • ガイドさんの後について一列でトレッキングします

  • 日本語の手書きのガイダンスがかいてあります。

  • 海亀もちゃんと見れました

  • 昼はガイドさんおすすめのCamaronのガーリックシュリンプ。集合場所に近く、オーナーも日本人なので安心して食べられました。

Riding a horse on an iron horse. 鉄の馬で馬に乗りに

Reviewed by: nekotin

Since there is no shuttle service for the tour, I rented a Harley with a rental bike the day before and set off from the local area. In a country where helmets are not required, I enjoyed the freedom with a bandana and sunglasses while heading to the ranch. I wish this could be included in the tour as well!

This morning, it was just the four of us in a private session, and most of the preparations for horseback riding were already done. The horses, saddled and ready, lined up to greet us. The staff, consisting of friendly cowboys and cowgirls, assisted us, and since they could speak a little Japanese, the process was smooth.

The horse assigned to me was named Cowboy, and all the horses were well-trained and adorable. The horseback riding was quite hands-off, so beginners might feel a bit confused without an experienced rider accompanying them. It's common knowledge that the handling of reins is the opposite of Japan, so if you understand that, you can ride fairly freely, which made it a lot of fun for us.

We rode for 90 minutes, climbing steep, unmarked slopes and traversing a varied ranch landscape. It was very satisfying. However, I wished we could have been taken to a spot with a better ocean view at the top of the mountain, which is the only reason I’m giving it four stars.

I plan to choose this place for horseback riding again next time, but I think I will negotiate before riding. It was a lot of fun.

送迎の無いツアーなので、前日よりレンタルバイクでハーレーを借り現地出発

乗馬はかなり放任型で、初心者は経験者同伴じゃないと少し戸惑うかも

ある程度は自由に乗せてくれるので、自分達は凄く楽しかったです。

道無き急斜面を上ったり、起伏に富んだ牧場を90分かけての乗馬
のりごたえ満点です。
ただ、山の上でもう少しオーシャンビューなところに案内してもらいたかったかな

ノースショア・シャーク・アドベンチャー 迫力満点!至近距離で野生のサメを見学 <送迎可>

The best!!!! 最高!!!!

Reviewed by: fUziMurA

My husband and I participated in the first morning session. I was a bit anxious about whether our reservation was confirmed, but we were picked up on time by a car with a big shark picture on it ( ˊᵕˋ ). It was tough getting up at 5:30 AM, though (laughs).

After about an hour's drive, we arrived and boarded the boat!!! The crew didn't speak any Japanese, so we read the instructions in Japanese. Even though they couldn't speak Japanese, they communicated well through gestures, so it wasn't a problem at all♪ On the way to the shark spot, they playfully startled us with shark dolls and checked to see if we were feeling okay; they were really nice people.

When we reached the spot, there were so many sharks on the surface!!! Since our turn was third, we watched the sharks swimming around. The journey to the spot was fine, but once the boat stopped, I started to feel a bit seasick (laughs). It seemed like everyone else felt the same way (laughs). We didn't get to the point of throwing up, but a few people did look like they were struggling (;▽;).

However, when it was our turn, our excitement took over, and the seasickness disappeared! The sharks we saw right in front of us were absolutely beautiful! They didn't bump into the cage, just swimming around it gracefully (*˘︶˘*). There were more than ten sharks♪ But some people inside the cage looked a bit seasick and unwell (;▽;). I wouldn't recommend this for those who are prone to motion sickness (;▽;).

But it was an incredibly valuable experience!!!

旦那と二人で朝イチの部で参加しました。
ちゃんと予約できてるか不安でしたが、時間通りにサメの絵が大きく載った車でお迎えにきてもらいました( ˊᵕˋ )朝5:30でさすがにつらかったですが(笑)
車で1時間ほどで到着し、船に乗って出発!!!
クルーのみなさんは全く日本語はしゃべれないので、日本語表記の注意書きを読みました。日本語はしゃべれないけど、ジェスチャーなどで伝わるのでぜんぜん問題ありませんでした♪サメがいるスポットまでの道のりもサメの人形で脅かしてきたり、具合悪くないかとか気にかけてくれてとても良い人たちでした。
ポイントについたら水面にたくさんのサメが!!!
私達夫婦の順番は3番目だったので、水面のサメを見たりしてました。
ポイントまでの道のりは全然平気でしたか、船が止まるとすこーしずつ酔ってきました(笑)みなさんそんな感じでした(笑)私たちは吐くまではなかったけど、何人かは吐いていてつらそうでした(;▽;)
でも自分たちの番になるとテンションが上がり、船酔いなんて吹っ飛びました!
目の前で見えるサメたちはとても美しかったです!檻にぶつかってくるなんて危険な事はなく、檻のまわりをぐるぐると泳いでる感じです(*˘︶˘*)10匹以上いました♪でも中には檻の中で波酔いして、具合悪そうな方もいました(;▽;)酔いやすいかたはオススメ出来ないですね(;▽;)
でもすごく貴重な体験が出来ました!!!

We participated as a family of five. We visited the Dole Plantation, had lunch with Huli Huli chicken in Haleiwa, and then went to Turtle Bay, where everyone had their first horseback riding experience. At first, we were anxious, but the horses were very well trained, and we enjoyed riding between the beautiful beach and the forest. Our guide was an experienced Japanese person, and we had a great time. I think this is a tour I would recommend to everyone.

家族5人で参加しました。ドールプランテーションを見学して、ハレイワでフリフリチキンの昼食をしてからタートルベイへ行き、みんな初めての乗馬体験をしました。最初は不安でしたが、馬はとてもよく調教されており、きれいな浜辺と林の間を馬に乗って散策しました。ガイドも経験豊富な日本人で楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。皆さんにお勧めしたいツアーだと思います。

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

The Ambassador Package is Definitely a Must!

Reviewed by: Sheryl Mowry

My friend and I had a great time. Having a personal tour guide just made it that much more special. King, our personal guide, was a wonderful addition to a fantastic day. Getting reserved seating at all the shows was excellent. There was so much to see and do and you can learn so much about the different people that make up the Polynesian Islands. I can't say enough good things about King, he was so helpful and nice. The luau wasn't what I expected. But the food was good and the show was great. It made for a long day, but there was never a dull moment. I was hoping to get a shot glass as a souvenir for my brother-in-law, he collects and displays them, so was disappointed when I found out they don't sell them there. So it was very hard to find him a gift.
I definitely recommend anyone going to visit Hawaii have to spend a day at the Polynesian Cultural Center. And the Ambassador Package only makes the day that much more special.

Horseback riding is the best!! 乗馬最高!!

Reviewed by: みきてぃ

I was satisfied to have shrimp for lunch! There were a lot of flies, but it was a perfect tour for those who want to enjoy horseback riding! The riding time was long, and I felt a sense of accomplishment from riding more than on other tours. (I had horseback riding experience on a different tour before.) I chose the canyon option, and it was good to be in the mountains rather than by the sea since it was hot even in October. I had a fulfilling day.

お昼はシュリンプ食べれて満足!ハエは多かったですが・・・乗馬を楽しみたいという方にはもってこいのツアーでした!乗っている時間も長く、他のツアーより乗馬をしたという達成感がありました。(以前、違うツアーで乗馬経験しました)渓谷の方を選びましたが、10月でも暑かったので海より山でよかったです。1日充実できました。

I wish I had a bit more time for sightseeing. もう少し観光の時間が長かったらいいな

Reviewed by: ゆみんママ

For our three-generation trip, we chose the Pineapple Train.

We arrived 15 minutes late from the scheduled meeting time. Furthermore, there was a misunderstanding regarding the number of people, resulting in not having enough tickets for the Pineapple Train, which led to the need to go to the office to pick them up.

Next, we headed to the pickup location for my brother's family, but despite being past the meeting time, they were not at the designated spot. The driver kindly searched all over and even checked places that are often mistaken. Since we couldn't get in touch, they ended up driving to the hotel where we were staying. Embarrassingly, we were still at the hotel, and it was just a simple case of being late, but we ended up departing 30 minutes behind schedule. I truly apologize for that.

Despite the various troubles, the driver kept the atmosphere lively in the car, which I was really grateful for.

The Pineapple Train was peaceful and provided a relaxing time for adults. However, when I went to the restroom on the Pineapple Train, I lost track of time and couldn't go shopping. I also couldn't use the 15% off ticket that you receive when booking through VELTRA.

During the sea turtle watching at Alii Beach, they took us early considering the time the turtles would be on the beach, allowing us to see the turtles and take photos.

While exploring Haleiwa Town with kids, we spent most of our time at Matsumoto's Shave Ice and lunch, so there was no time to go to Giovanni's. We did have a little time for shopping, like buying an aloha shirt from Kahala.

In the car, the driver shared a lot about the sightseeing spots, making it a meaningful time. We were able to return to Waikiki by 3 PM.

三世代での旅行で、パイナップル列車を選択しました。

待ち合わせの時間より15分遅れての到着でした。さらに、人数が間違って伝わっており、パイナップル列車のチケット枚数が足りないため、事務所まで取りに行くという事態が発生しました。

次に、兄の家族のピックアップ場所に向かったのですが、待ち合わせの時間を過ぎていたにもかかわらず、指定の場所にいなかったため、あちこち探し回ってくれたり、よく間違えがちな場所にも見に行ってくれたり、連絡もつかなかったので、最後には滞在しているホテルにまで車をまわして頂きました。恥ずかしながらホテルにまだいており、単なる遅刻だったのですが、30分も出発時間に遅れることになってしまいました。本当に申し訳なかったです。

様々なトラブルがあったにもかかわらず、ドライバーの方は車内を盛り上げて下さり、本当にありがたかったです。

パイナップル列車はのどかで、大人が癒される時間でした。パイナップル列車に乗って、トイレに行くと時間はなくなってしまって、買い物はできませんでした。VELTRA予約時にもらえる15%オフのチケットを使うことができませんでした。

アリイビーチでのウミガメ鑑賞では、ウミガメが浜にいる時間を考慮して、先に連れて行ってくれたので、浜にいるウミガメを見ることが出来、写真を撮ることができました。
ハレイワタウンでの散策は子供連れだと、マツモトのシェイブアイスとランチでほとんど時間が無くなってしまったので、ジョバンニまで行く時間はなかったです。KAHARAのアロハシャツを買ったりと少しのお買い物の時間はありました。
車内ではドライバーの方が観光スポットをたくさん話してくれて、有意義な時間でした。15時にはワイキキに戻ってこれました。

That's unfortunate!! 残念!!

Reviewed by: いぬちゃん

We participated as a couple with our sixth-grade son. First, we went to Moalua Garden, then to a coffee shop, and finally to Dole Plantation. We spent 30 minutes at Dole, which was enough time to eat soft serve ice cream and look at souvenirs. Next, we headed to a beach with turtles. There were only two swimming in the water, and they didn't come ashore.

We had a 60-minute meal time in Haleiwa Town. I had previously communicated my desire for Huli Huli chicken and garlic shrimp, and the guide took us to a restaurant, but it was disappointing that it wasn't Marukey's. I regretted not asking to go to Marukey's. Since it was before 11 a.m., we were able to buy the Huli Huli chicken quickly. The taste was just average.

For horseback riding, we walked in a line along a mountain path, but the scenery became monotonous halfway through, making the 90 minutes feel long. I was very disappointed that the photos taken by the local guide with my camera didn't turn out well. The horseback riding itself was fine for elementary school students, but I think the coastal course would have had better views.

The guide explained various things about Hawaii on the bus. While the information about history and current life was helpful, I honestly found the discussions about celebrities' private lives unnecessary and uninteresting.

夫婦と小学6年生の息子で参加しました。
最初にモアルナガーデン、次にコーヒー屋さん、ドールプランテーションへ。
ドールは30分の滞在、ソフトクリームを食べてお土産を見るのには十分でした。
次に亀のいる浜辺へ。海の中に2匹泳いでいるだけで上陸はしていませんでした。
ハレイワタウンで60分の食事時間。あらかじめ、フリフリチキンとガーリックシュリンプの希望を伝えるとガイドさんがお店に連れて行ってくれますが、マーキーズではないお店だったのが残念でした。マーキーズに行きたいと言えばよかったとちょっと後悔。フリフリチキンは時間が11時前だったせいかすぐに買えました。味はまあ普通です。
乗馬は、山道をずーっと隊列になって歩いて行きますが途中から景色が単調で90分が長く感じられました。現地のガイドさんに頼んだカメラの写真がうまく撮れていなくて非常に残念。
乗馬自体は小学生でも大丈夫でしたが、海辺のコースの方が眺めが良くてよかったかなと思いました。
ガイドさんがバスの中で色々とハワイの事を説明してくれます。歴史や現在の生活については為になりましたが、芸能人の私生活の話はプライベートなことですし興味がないので正直余計な話だと思いました。

If you can't swim or are afraid of the ocean, it's better to avoid it. 泳げない人、海が怖い人はやめた方がいいです。

Reviewed by: ねたろう

I can barely swim and I'm too scared to dive even with a snorkel, but my wife is a diver and wanted to do some ocean activities together, so I thought this might work out... and signed up.

The transportation and local arrangements were normal, without any particular issues. We took off our shoes and boarded the boat with about 20 people, of which only about six were Japanese. Along the way, we read a Japanese lecture file.

The sea at the North Shore was somewhat rough, and the boat rocked quite a bit. The Japanese student group that was with us was almost seasick. If you're prone to motion sickness, it's better to skip this. Even after we got into the cage, the waves were rough and it was tough.

I later heard that the North Shore is calm only around July to August. We were able to see sharks up close, so it's a good activity for those who like that, but personally, it was extremely challenging for me... I was overestimating my abilities. My wife was very happy, though.

Horseback riding along the beach. ビーチ沿いを乗馬

Reviewed by: mahalo hawaii

I think it’s inconvenient because there’s no pickup service and you have to meet on-site, so you need a rental car to get there. Horseback riding along the nearby beach felt monotonous since the course was the same going and coming back. The time was shorter than I expected. The horseback riding at Kualoa had better scenery. If the weather is good, it might offset some of that.

ピックアップが無く現地集合の為レンタカーでないと行けない場所の為不便だと思う。近くのビーチ沿いを乗馬。コースが行き帰りが同じで単調に感じた。時間が思ったより短かった。クアロアの乗馬の方が景色は良かった。天気が良ければある程度相殺されるかもしれない。

It was disappointing. 残念でした。

I signed up for canyon horseback riding, but due to bad weather, it was canceled and changed to a seaside course. While the weather is no one's fault, I was really looking forward to it, so it's disappointing. However, I was glad that I could still go horseback riding on the seaside course. Thank you to the guide for being so kind. I will try canyon horseback riding again next year.

渓谷乗馬を申し込みしましたが、天候が悪くキャンセルになり海辺コースに変更になりました。天候は誰の責任ではありませんが、楽しみにしていただけに残念です。しかし海辺コースでも乗馬が出来たので良かった。ガイドさんも親切にして頂きありがとうございました。来年また渓谷乗馬に再挑戦します。

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

North beach tour

Reviewed by: Laura

Great day at the north beach. We chose the waterfall hike as our activity in the morning. You could have done snorkelling or bike rides if preferred. We then had free time on waimea bay beach. In the afternoon we had a free lunch instead of doing another activity such as kayaking. Saw sea turtles at a beach on the way home

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

Amazing food and show

Reviewed by: Annie

We had an awesome driver named Allen who was hauling his way to get to the Polynesian cultural center even through the pouring rain. Even though we purchased the late night entry, we still had a great time with our tour guide and was able to go to a few of the more larger exhibits. Each land has their own exhibit, or a mini show varying from 15-30 minutes. My favorite was the Samoas. The dinner was a buffet style luau with the hula girls and boys, and the children. Half day is more than enough time to go through the park. There was also a canoe ride that operates every 15 min but we missed it since we were the last wave to enter the park. The show at the end called HA, the breathe of life was an amazing show!

ノースショア(ハレイワ)観光 ハレイワタウンで3時間の自由散策+ドールプランテーション!海辺の絶景を楽しめる乗馬付き(70分)プランあり<1日/送迎付き>

I'm glad I went! 行って良かった!

Reviewed by: フィリップ

The guide was Japanese, and since it was a tour with only Japanese people, I enjoyed hearing various deep stories about Hawaii in the van. The guide was a great storyteller and a fun person.

On this day, the North Shore had high waves due to the typhoon, and it seemed that the turtles couldn't come up to the beach, so there were no turtles at Turtle Bay. However, they took us to another beach where we could see turtles on the way back!

For lunch, they took us to a recommended shrimp restaurant, and it was really delicious. The seaside horseback riding plan was just the right length at 45 minutes, and it felt great. The horses weren't startled by the sound of the waves, and they were all calm, but some horses got really into eating grass during the ride, which seemed challenging for the riders (laughs). The riders looked like they were having fun despite the struggles.

I think it's a tour that people of all ages, from children to the elderly, can enjoy.

ガイドさんは日本人で、日本人しかいないツアーだったので、バンの中でいろんなハワイのディープな話が聞けて楽しかったです。ガイドさんは話が上手で面白い人でした。

この日のノースショアは台風の影響で波が高く、亀が海岸に上がってこれないようで、タートルベイに亀がいませんでした。しかし、帰りに亀が見られる別の海岸に連れてってくれたので見ることができました!
お昼にはおすすめのシュリンプのお店にも連れて行ってもらったのですが、本当に美味しかったです。
海辺乗馬プランは45分とちょうど良い時間で、気持ちいいです。馬は波の音にも驚かないし、みんなおとなしいですが、馬によっては外乗の途中で草を夢中で食べてしまう奴がいて操作が大変そうでした(笑)乗っている人は苦労しつつそれなりに楽しそうでしたが。

子供から年配の人まで楽しめるツアーだと思います。

Not only was the horseback riding experience enjoyable, but I also got to visit Moanalua Gardens, Dole Plantation, and Haleiwa, which made for a fulfilling trip! Even though it wasn't part of the original plan, I was glad that I could also visit the North Shore Soap Factory and Honolulu Coffee upon request!

乗馬体験だけではなく、モアナルアガーテン・ドールプランテーション・ハレイワも行けて充実していました!当初の予定にはなかったにも関わらず、リクエストに応じてノースショアソープファクトリーやホノルルコーヒーも行けてよかったです!

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Not recommended

Reviewed by: Henry

It is a very special experience to see sharks that closely in the water. But you will get bored very soon since you'll see the same thing for the entire 20 mins.
