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

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for!

Reviewed by: Lani S.

I wanted to head out to the North Shore, but did not want to sit on a stodgy bus all day and listen to someone drone on and on. The Surf Bus was the PERFECT choice since I not only got to experience the highlights of the area, but got to do some fun activities as well.

I decided to do Snorkeling, the Waimea Falls nature walk and SUP. Harry was very accommodating about squeezing in two activities for the morning section, and I am so happy that he did. The snorkeling was AMAZING! It was literally like swimming in an aquarium. I got to be in the water for a little over an hour and then I was picked up to go to Waimea Falls Park. The walk was quite easy, and if you have a hard time walking, shuttles are available for $10 round-trip at the park. I didn't go into the water since I just wanted to sit and relax, but the walk to and from the waterfall was about 45 minutes total. REALLY beautiful.

For my afternoon, I chose SUP and even though I had never done it before, I figured it out pretty quickly after the briefing from the guys at the surf store. I never quite made it to the "stand up" part of "stand up paddling", but my "sit up" paddle was just as fun and I made it all the way down the river.

With about an hour left before I had to meet the bus, I had a delicious burger and fries at Teddy's Bigger Burger and washed that all down with some shave ice from Matsumotos (lychee and strawberry YUM!). All in all, a great experience and wonderful way to see the best of the North Shore in a day :)

One Ocean Diving Hawaii Shark Dive on Oahu & Snorkel Tour Experience

There are simply no words to describe the awesomeness!

Reviewed by: Hawaii Kitty

My friend and I were completely freaking out before we went out on this tour, but afterwards, we just wanted to go again and again! There is nothing as strangely calming and thrilling than to be in the open ocean with what seems likes hundreds of sharks swimming below you.

With only six passengers, we all got lots of attention and assistance, and during the ride out, our safety guides told us all about the sharks and other creatures we would see as well as what to do while we are in the water. There was not a moment after I boarded the boat that I felt uneasy or unsafe. I knew that the captain and crew had not only our best interests at heart, but the sharks as well.

It was a humbling experience to be in the shark's home and it is something that I will treasure forever!

Meet at the location with a rental car. レンタカーで現地集合

Reviewed by: ukitaq

- If you arrange for transportation, it will be $60 per person, so you can cover the rental car cost.
- We arrived in about an hour from Honolulu.
- We had the early morning plan and departed before sunrise.
- We were the second group, but just before entering the water, the sun rose and it got warm.
- We didn't encounter anything other than the sandbar shark.
- We were packed into a cage with six people, so there were a lot of us and we couldn't move freely.

・送迎を手配すると６０ドル×人なのでレンタカー代が捻出できます
・ホノルルから約１時間で到着しました
・朝イチのプランで日の出前の出港でした
・２組目でしたが、ちょうど入水前に日の出があり暖かくなりました
・イタチザメ以外には出会えませんでした
・ゲージに６人詰め込まれたので、人が多く自由に動けませんでした

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

Don't be scared - This is a MUST!!

Reviewed by: David

OK, so the idea of going to 'find' sharks as opposed to avoiding them at all costs can take a little getting used to. However once I'd gotten over that, I have to say this is one of the most exhilarating experiences I've had (and enjoyed) on the island.
There's two basic times that you can go out, Super early or Early, Yes that's right, Don't plan on a late night in the bar the night before trying to drum up Dutch courage because this boat leaves early and you want to get your sleep in.

After a leisurely 20-25 mins boat ride out (i think they said about 2 miles) to the dive site you arrive in an open water area, engines are cut and you pull up next to the cage. A quick chat from the crew, and two groups are selected A & B, This ensures you have maximum space in the cage and is a really cool idea.

We climbed in first, GoPro's on and ready to start shooting...

The cage is actually rather large and you definitely want to be up close to the bars hold on, and go down to get your first glimpse... I'm not going to say much more on what you'll see but I will say, This is a guaranteed sharks (plural, many lol) shark tank dive. They big, upclose and personal and you are totally safe in your secure housing...

You get ample time to take selfies, group shots, dive down again, hold the bottom of the cage etc as these amazing creatures swim all around you.

I'd forgot my wrist strap for my cam, No problem, The crew guy noticed as I was getting ready ad gave me a cool wrist-strap for it (thick rubber band!) Awesome Service.

Highly Recommended. 5*

North Shore Private Sunset Horseback Riding & Campfire Dinner at Gunstock Ranch

Love horses

Reviewed by: Jessica

My husband, parents and I really enjoyed the sunset dinner ride. The only thing I wish we could have done was gallop or even cantor a bit. If you are a new rider or inexperienced, this is perfect for you. The views were breathtaking and the guide was great. The food was decent, however when we got done we realized we didn't get the corn on the cob or the pie that was advertised in the add. What we did get was steak, shrimp, rice, macaroni salad, fresh fruit and we made smores over the fire. The best was the fruit and the smores. Overall it was really fun and a great experience.

The tour is fun, but be careful of seasickness! ツアーは楽しいが船酔いに注意！

Reviewed by: GOK

The tour itself was really fun. The North Shore is famous for its high waves and surfing, so the ride to the destination was quite bumpy. Even I, who usually doesn't get seasick, felt a bit unwell. There were about 4 to 5 other people who also looked like they were feeling sick, and some were even vomiting. If you're joining the tour, don't forget to bring motion sickness medication.

ツアー自体はすごく楽しかったです。ノースショアはサーフィンで有名な高波のビーチなので、目的地まで向かう間はかなり揺れます。普段、船酔いしない私でも気分が悪くなりました。
自分以外にも４～５人気分の悪そうな方がいましたし、吐いている方もおられました。ツアーに参加される方は酔い止めをお忘れなく。

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

Expectations...

Reviewed by: -PAUL-

I mentioned this before on the phone. This was fun, but was only able to do one activity. Unfortunately the ad misleads you into thinking you can do whatever activities, whenever. You are allowed to swim, snorkel, bike ride or hike in the morning. Then you can either surf(which you cant cause it will cost you more when you never did it, apparently you have to take a lesson before using their boards), kayak, or stand up paddleboard in the afternoon. It just was a disappointment to have an expectaion of what to get for my day, then not do it. In other words, two spereate locations for the morning and afternoon activities, so majority of your time is traveling. Which is fine, but also would of have a different opinion. Knowing what i know now, i probably would never choosen this activity.
I missed the bus to go to the afternoon location, needless to say i was given the wrong time by tourist, but honsestly by the time i got there, i was out of time. One thing that is odd is the memory game, being dropped off somwhere and being picked up elsewhere. However, the people that works at the snorkel rental place, especially that young kid, clueless to his surroundings. Knew who i was & i who else i was there with in regards of the other party on the tour bus & couldnt inform me of the other party making it back. So knowing the time i had to be picked up, this kid not being observant and missing the bus is all my fault, right? So thanks for that! I had to wait for the city bus to pick me up to find out where the tour bus was to get back on it.
All in all, i only did one activity and did a lot of sitting & waiting around. Snorkeling was fun, but was my excitement was short lived with the turmoil. I had fun snorkeling, and thats about it. Oh yeah, dont worry, ill take care of that bus fare!

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＞

The shuttle service is not available, but the staff and the zipline were fun and good. 送迎はNGですが、スタッフさんとジップラインが楽しくGOOD

Reviewed by: 40代女性　ハワイ2回目

The zip line was physically demanding, but it was exciting and fun! The friendliness of the staff and the enjoyable atmosphere were also very good. My whole family said they were glad to participate.

The start was terrible as we waited 30 minutes for the bus. It was stated that if it didn't arrive in 10 minutes, we should call, so I did, but since it was in English, the conversation didn't go well. I called twice. During the second call, I was told to wait another 10 minutes, and after 30 minutes, the bus finally arrived. The voucher said to wait in front of the Ilikai Hotel, but the pickup was in front of the road, not at the entrance. Also, instead of calling me by name, they shouted "Zip line!" and I almost didn't realize it in time, which was scary.

Once we arrived, the staff were very friendly and created a fun atmosphere. With gestures, I could generally understand what they were saying in English!

First, we registered our profiles and consent on a wall-mounted PC screen. We had to leave all our belongings behind and participate with just our bodies. It was mandatory to use the restroom before joining.

We moved around the site in a jeep, and it was fun with the bumpy ride that splashed mud everywhere.

After that, we slid down the zip line, starting with the staff demonstrating how it’s done. Then, two people at a time took turns sliding. Before sliding, the staff communicated via walkie-talkie to inform each other of who was going next. The instructions before sliding were precise, which made me feel safe.

There are two ways to slide: fast and slow, and they provided a briefing on this. We slid down seven lines, doing various styles including upside down.

The course included climbing down with ropes, using arm strength to pull ourselves up, and a suspension bridge. We also had bananas and nuts to eat and could drink water, making it feel like an obstacle course. There were two zip line options in Hawaii, one in Croatia and this one, but we chose this one because it seemed more fun. I think we made the right choice.

While enjoying the zip line, I was impressed by the staff's skill and professionalism.

I believe my whole family enjoyed it. As a gesture of gratitude, I gave a small tip to two staff members I was able to identify during the tour. After finishing, it seems they go on break, so it’s best to give tips right away if you want to.

Thank you very much.

ジップライン、体力使いましたがエキサイティングで楽しかったです！
スタッフさんのフレンドリーさと楽しい雰囲気もとても良かったです。
家族みんな参加して良かったと言っていました。

スタートは最悪でバスを30分待ちました。10分待ってこなかったら電話と記載があったのでかけましたが、英語なので会話が成立しません。2回も電話かけました。2回目に10分待つように言われて、30分待ちで来ましたが、バウチャーはイリカイホテルの玄関前とありましたが、迎えに来たのはホテル前の道路の前で玄関前には来ませんでした。また「●●さん」と名前で呼ばずに、「ジップライン！」と叫ばれてすぐに気が付かず、乗り遅れなくて良かった。怖い・・と思いました。

現地に付いたら、スタッフさんはとてもフレンドリーで楽しい雰囲気で、ゼスチャーもあるのか英語なのに何を言ってらっしゃるのかが大体解りました！

最初にプロフィールと承諾を壁掛けのPC画面で登録します。
持物は全てあずけて身体一つ。必ずトイレをしてから参加です。

ジープで敷地内を移動しますが、泥が飛んでくるくらいグネグネ運転で楽しかったです。

その後ジップラインを滑走しますが、最初まずスタッフさんが滑って見本を見せてくれます。
その後順番に2名ずつ滑走します。滑走前にはスタッフさんがトランシーバーで連絡を取り合い、誰が滑るかを名前を伝えています。滑る前の滑走の手順も正確で安心して滑れました。

滑り方には速く滑る方法と、ゆっくり滑る方法があります。これをレクチャーしてくれます。
7本滑りましたが、逆さになったり、いろんな滑り方をしました。

コースの中には、上から縄で下に降りたり、下から上に腕力を使って自分を引上げたり、吊り橋があったり、途中バナナやナッツも食べたり、水を飲めたりアスレチックのようでした。
ジップラインはハワイでクロアチアと2つあったのですが、こちらの方がコースが楽しそうだったので私達はこちらを選びました。多分正解でした。

ジップラインを楽しむとともに、スタッフさんの滑走の上手さや仕事ぶりが素晴らしく関心してしまいました。

家族みんな楽しめたと思います。感謝の気持ちを込めて、一緒に回ったスタッフさんで発見できたスタッフさん2名にチップを少しお渡ししました。終了すると休憩に入られるみたいで姿がすぐにいらっしゃる場所が解らなくなりますので、渡したい方はすぐに渡したほうが良いです。

ありがとうございました。

We participated as a family of four. Our 12-year-old and 8-year-old sons rode alone as well. In 1 hour and 15 minutes, we enjoyed a magnificent view and were very satisfied. Along the way, there were changes in the path, and there were some thrilling spots too. It became an unforgettable experience.
At the ranch, there were free-range donkeys and wild peacocks, and it was fun to interact with them.

家族四人で参加しました。12才と8才の息子もひとりで乗りました。1時間15分で、雄大な景色の中を周り大満足。途中、道にも変化があり、少しスリルのあるところもありました。一生忘れられない経験になりました。
牧場には、放し飼いのロバや、野生の孔雀がいて、触れ合いが楽しかったです。

The hike was one of the highlights of my trip. I loved the river crossings even though the river made all of my clothes really wet and went up to my chest, since I am only 4'11". Keola taught us many Hawaiian words including freshwater, wai, saltwater, Kai, and Life, Keola. He was very knowledgable about the history of the island and the Kamehameha family. The best part was probably talking with our fellow hikers and the small lake where we ate lunch. We will definitely do one of the other tours as well.

It was an early morning tour, and I was really worried that the water would be cold, but surprisingly, once I got in, it wasn't that cold at all. From the moment I saw the sharks, I was completely captivated (laughs). However, the boat was really rocky, so snorkeling didn't make much sense (laughs). I took motion sickness medicine, so I didn't feel seasick at all, and when we boarded, no one felt unwell. I was satisfied with the number of sharks we saw! However, because of the rocking, I couldn't take very nice photos~ ★ It’s expensive, but buying the DVD might be a good idea~. We did (laughs). Since it's something you can't do often, it's worth it (^^)/ I recommend it for those looking for excitement~ (＾◇＾).

朝早いツアーだったのと、水が冷たいんじゃないかとそれがすごく心配だったが、意外と入ってしまえばそこまで寒くもなく、もうシャークが見えた瞬間から夢中（笑）ただ揺れがすごいからシュノーケルはあまり意味なし（笑）酔い止め飲んでたからまったく船酔いもせずにうちらが乗ったときは誰一人として具合悪い人いなかった。かなりの数のシャーク見れて満足！ただやっぱり揺れがすごいから写真はあまりきれいにとれなかったな～★高いけどDVD買うのがいいかも～。うちらはかった（笑）なかなかできないことだからやる価値はあり(^^)/刺激が欲しい人にはおススメ～(＾◇＾)

We had a wonderful day with AC as our guide. He was very knowledgeable, pointing out local sites and giving history along the way. He bent over backwards to accommodate everyone on the tour, taking each group to their favorite locations, running back and forth moving us around from hot spot to hotspot as we each finished our excursions. He was very professional at all times. We would hIghly recommend him as a tour guide. We had a blast! He even went out of his way to go back and find a lost article for us- which fell out of the van at a previous stop.

Horseback riding on the North Shore. ノースショアで乗馬

Reviewed by: Tabo

I signed up with the assumption that I could ride horses by the beach at North Shore and run them along the shoreline, but that was a naive thought. The trail goes by the coast, but it doesn't reach the ocean. The course is overgrown with tall grass, and the view isn't very good. The horses are well accustomed to people, and even when there were loud noises (like gunshots?), they didn't get agitated. I think this is suitable for beginners.

ノースショアの海辺で乗馬ができる、波打ち際で馬を走らせる事ができるとの勝手な思い込みで申し込みをしましたが甘い考えでした。海岸の側は通りますが海には行きません。コースに背の高い草が茂っており、眺めも余り良くないです。馬は良く人に慣れており、途中大きな音（拳銃の発射音？）がしても暴れることも無かったです。初心者向きの乗馬かなと思います。

This was my second time horseback riding in Hawaii. The first time, I participated in a local tour at Kualoa Ranch. This time, I was drawn to the seaside course and set off to the ranch by rental car. However, there was no sign at the entrance of the ranch, and after entering a couple of other properties and being told it was the wrong place, it took quite a while to finally arrive. When we got there, there were only four of us as guests, and both the staff and the horses were relaxed. Time to ride! It was written that the riding session would last 45 minutes, but it seemed like we walked slowly. On the sandy beach, locals were enjoying barbecues and sunbathing while listening to music. The horses were quite greedy, lowering their heads to eat grass, which made me a bit nervous, but it was a lot of fun. After horseback riding, we went swimming nearby, and it felt like a private beach. Thank you, Adriana!

ハワイでの乗馬は二回目です。１度目はクアロア牧場の現地ツアーに参加しました。今回は海辺のコースに惹かれてレンタカーで牧場までいざ出発しました。・・・が、牧場の入り口に看板らしきものがなく、２か所ほど他の敷地内へ入っては違うと言われ、たどり着くまで結構な時間がかかりました。着いてみると、客は私たち４人のみで、スタッフも馬ものんびり。いざ乗馬！乗馬の時間は４５分と書いてありましたが、ゆっくり歩いていただいたようでした。砂浜の海辺は現地の人たちが音楽を聴きながらバーベキューや日光浴をしていました。馬たちは食いしん坊で草を食べる度に頭を下げるのでヒヤヒヤしましたが、とても楽しかったです。乗馬の後は牧場の近くで海水浴をしましたが、まるでプライベートビーチみたいでした。アドリアーナさんありがとう！

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.

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!!!

Oahu North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience - Daytime Tours

Awesome - Would highly recommend

Reviewed by: Jennie

The staff (Alex) was sensational! From chatting on our ride I felt like we were family.. Like we knew each other for years... Very inviting, knowledgeable and friendly! The horses are beautiful and sweet and the property you get to ride on is like out of a fairy tale! I will definitely be coming back every time I'm in Hawaii!

This was one of the most enjoyable and informative tours I have been on, Tiffany was an excellent and knowledgeable host this tour offers more than the tour description indicates and includes detailed interesting natural fauna information. I can highly recomend this very enjoyable tour and is excellent value for money the shrimp meal was enjoyable. Well done Tiffany for making our day day an enjoyable one.

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＞

It was the best time! 最高の時間でした！

Reviewed by: ゅーん

It was the best optional tour I've ever been on! The boat was quite rocky, but I had no issues thanks to taking motion sickness medication the day before and on the day of the tour. It was such an exciting time that I even shouted with my snorkel in my mouth!

今までのどのオプショナルツアーよりも最高でした！船はとても揺れますが、前日の酔い止め＋当日の酔い止め服用で問題なしでした。シュノーケルを噛んだまま声を出してしまうくらいエキサイティングな時間でした！

An amazing experience. Even though the water was extremely rough the day we went, it was still incredible. Our guides were the best too.
