All Reviews for Kid Adventures (Ages 8-12)

I rode at Sweetheart for two days on July 11 and 12 (the canter course was an additional $10). It takes about two hours to get there from Ala Moana by The Bus. There were a lot of children, possibly because Hawaii's schools are on summer break. When we arrived, there was no one at the reception. After informing a wandering person that we had a reservation, a staff member came out, and we signed a waiver before preparing the horses. The four of us enjoy riding outside both domestically and internationally, so we came here intending to gallop. As expected, we were able to ride at speeds of 40 km or more. However, I think it's important to inform the guide about the speed you are comfortable with, as it can be dangerous if you haven't experienced this level of speed beforehand. The canter within the riding club is limited to about 20 km, which feels like shifting from third to fourth gear in a car. We had lunch on a hill overlooking the North Shore, but the lunch box in the horse's saddle pocket got all mixed up due to the up-and-down vibrations. On the second day, we decided not to bring lunch and ate after returning. Also, the stirrups are often too long for Japanese riders, so if they don't fit, it's important to adjust them (or switch to a child’s saddle if adjustments aren't possible) to avoid falling off during canter or gallop. I believe it's better to communicate, even in broken English, regarding speed and other matters, as accidents are the rider's responsibility. Compared to riding in Japan, the sense of freedom is completely different, making it an excellent ranch for those who want to ride fast. (The walking course is just for walking, and the canter course is optional.) It's a pity that the time for each course is predetermined, limiting the options available.

7/11,12の２日間スｲートハート（キャンターコースはオプションで$10アップでした）で騎乗。The Busでアラモアナから2時間で行けます。ハワイの学校が夏休みに入ったのか子供たちがいっぱい。我々が着いても受付に誰もいません。うろうろしている人に「予約している」と告げるとスタッフが出てきて免責の書面に各人サインしてから馬の準備。我々4人は内外地で外乗で走ることを楽しんでいますので、ここでもギャロップで走るつもりで来ました。内容は予想通り40Kmかそれ以上のスピードで走ることが出来ました。ただし、事前にこの程度の速度を経験していないと危険ですので、ガイドさんにはどの程度で走るかを指示しておく必要があると思います。乗馬クラブのラチ内での駈足は20Ｋｍ位までですので車で言うとギアが３速から４速に上がる感じです。途中ノースショアの景色を見下ろせる丘でランチですが、馬のゼッケンのポケットに入れてあったランチボックスの中が上下の振動でグチャグチャになっていました。２日目はランチを持って行かないで戻ってから食事にしました。また、鐙は日本人には長すぎることが多いので、自分に合わない場合は妥協しないで調節（調節出来ない場合は子供用の鞍に替えてもらう）しないとキャンター、ギャロップでは落馬につながります。速度の点も含めて片言ででも英語で意思疎通が出来た方が良いと思います。事故は自己責任ですので。日本での外乗と比べて解放感がまったく違い、速く走りたい方には絶好の牧場です。（歩くコースは歩くだけ、キャンターコースはオプションです）コースによって時間が決まっており選択の巾が少ないのが残念です。

I chose this place because they offered transportation. The pickup was at 7:45, so I arrived early at 7:30. As soon as I got to the pickup location, the shuttle van arrived and said, "Hurry up and get on!" I showed my voucher just in case, but I was glad I arrived early and was able to get on!

Next, after arriving at Keana Farm, when I showed my voucher at the reception counter, I was told there was a translation fee of $30. I thought, "Is this an additional charge?" and said NO, which made the staff look troubled. It turned out there was no additional fee, and when I showed my voucher at a different counter, I was checked in smoothly. At the reception, I was told, "After checking in on the iPad, please wait in the area with benches," so I used the restroom and left my luggage at the reception to wait. I waited for almost an hour. There was a monitor in the waiting area displaying my name and time. When the time approached, I would be fitted with the equipment. Since there was no announcement from the guide, I told a nearby guide, "I think I'm next," and a lovely guide responded in Japanese, saying, "I'm in charge of the Japanese guests." It was nice to have translation included in the plan. This guide also accompanied me during the zip line, which made me feel at ease. Since I was the only Japanese person there, I felt it was a luxury.

The zip line experience was very enjoyable. I would give it four stars. Sliding through the farm felt great, and I could see the ocean, mountains, and fields; it went by in no time. Although not fluent, the explanations in Japanese were very reassuring. I think anyone with enough stamina to walk up about three flights of stairs can enjoy it fully.

Basically, everything was in English from the transportation to the equipment fitting, and after the zip line, I was left on my own. The Japanese guide appeared when it was time to put on the equipment, and while we were saying how much fun we had at the end of the tour, they disappeared before I could even give a tip.

They took photos during the zip line, which you can purchase. I decided to buy the photos and paid on the spot. I was told that I would receive the data right away, but it didn't come. I thought it would be a problem if I had given the wrong email address when I purchased them, so I sent a message through the CLIMB Works website's contact form saying, "I bought the photos, but have they been sent?" However, I received no reply. Since I can't speak English, I thought calling would be futile, so I gave up. But a few days later, I received the photos! I was relieved! Initially, I would have given it one star, but I changed it to four stars.

送迎付きだったのでここを選びました。
まずピックアップが7:45だったのですが早めに行こうと7:30に到着しました。するとピックアップ場所到着してすぐ送迎のバンが来て「急いで乗って！」と。一応バウチャーを見せましたが、早く来て良かったよ！乗れて良かったよ！思いました。
次にケアナファーム到着後、受付カウンターでバウチャーを見せたらトランスレーション$30だと言われました。追加料金？と思いNOと言ったら困った顔をされました。やはり追加料金はなかったようで別のカウンターにバウチャーを見せたらすんなり受付されました。受付で「iPadでチェックインしたらベンチのあるところで待ってて」と言われ、トイレを済ませ荷物は受付に預けて待ちました。1時間弱くらい待ちました。待ってる場所にモニターがあり自分の名前と時間が表示されています。時間が近づいたら装備をつけてもらいます。ガイドさんから声かけは無かったので「私は次だと思う」と近くにいたガイドさんに言うと、別の可愛らしいガイドさんが「日本人担当です」と日本語で声をかけてくれました。プランに翻訳が込みなんですね。このガイドさんがジップラインも一緒にまわってくれたので安心でした。日本人は私だけだったので贅沢だなと思いました。
その後のジップラインはとても楽しかったです。星も☆☆☆☆です。農園の中を滑るのはとても気持ちが良く、海も山も畑も見えて、あっという間でした。流暢ではないですが日本語で説明してくれるのはとても安心でした。階段で歩いて3階くらいまで上れる体力があれば十分楽しめると思います。
基本すべて英語で送迎〜装備装着とジップライン終了後はほったらかしです。日本語ガイドさんは装備をつけてくれる時に現れてツアーが終わって楽しかった！とか言っている間にチップを渡す間もなくいなくなっていました。

ジップライン中に写真を撮ってくれて、その写真を購入できます。
写真購入を決め、その場で支払いました。データで貰えるという事で、すぐに送ると言われたのですが、送られて来ず、購入の際に伝えたメールアドレスを間違えていたら困ると思いCLIMB Worksのホームページのお問い合わせから「写真を買ったんだけど、送ってくれましたか？」とメッセージしましたが何の返信もありませんでした。わたしは英語が話せないので電話してもきっと会話にならないと思い諦めていましたが、その数日後に写真を送ってもらえました。良かったです！はじめは☆1でしたが☆4に変えました。

You will be participating among complete American tourists. If you don't have a certain level of English proficiency, you might feel nervous. You can see the sharks clearly.

Had a great time. People are warm and make it easy to enjoy the excursion. Beautiful scene. Unforgettable experience. Recommend very highly.

My kids said this was the experience of a lifetime! Water was a little rough so if you suffer from sea sickness I would recommend medication but the overall experience was worth every minute. We did some sort of excursion almost every day and my family loved this!!

I finally experienced ziplining!
We went by rental car without any shuttle service.
The location was easy to find. Everything on-site was in English, so there were moments of confusion (laughs), but it all worked out! The staff were bright, kind, and reliable, which made up for it! The scenery is truly amazing. There’s also a bit of an obstacle course that takes about three hours. If you're not afraid of heights, you'll be fine.
You can definitely enjoy nature to the fullest!

念願のジップライン体験してきました！
私達は送迎なしで レンタカーで行きました。
場所もわかりやすかったですよ。現地は全て英語なので なんだかさっぱり（笑)な事もありますが
なんとかなります！そしてそれをカバーするくらい
スタッフは明るく優しく頼もしい！景色も本当に最高です。3時間位でアスレチックの部分も少しあり。高所恐怖症でなければ大丈夫です。
自然を満喫できること間違いなし！です！

This was a swim of a lifetime! The crew was professional, safe and fun. Extremely educational and inspirational. Go with One Ocean Diving!

Great place to zip line...Staff was great. We had tour guides Sage, Danny and Asia. Awesome people and very friendly, the learned our names from just the first zip line. I wouldn't book through Veltra (sorry they were nice) however Climb Works has a greater military discount; 25% trumps 10% any day, wish I knew that. It was a great adventure overall! I would do it again.

This tour was our family favorite. The time flew by as we moved from line to line. The crew was a lot of fun and very helpful! I can't wait to go again.

It was really amazing. The guys were really nice and funny, answering every questions. We stayed really long in the cage and at no time we felt unsecure. We saw many sharks all around the cage and coming close to the boat. If you can, ask for them to take the pictures with a gopro, they'll be a lot and you won't have to worry about it.

This tour turns everything you think you knew about sharks completely on its head. After a short ride out from the harbor, you arrive at your snorkel site. You quickly and quietly get in the water (with no cage!) and voila, you are swimming with 5-8 foot sharks all around. This was a very professionally run and awesome adventure on the North Shore. Highly recommended to anyone with a sense of adventure.

I wanted to try ziplining, so I booked a package that included transportation. The pickup time was punctual. There was one Japanese couple, and the rest were all foreigners. Although the explanations were only in English, they were easy to understand with gestures. (It might be tough if you don't understand any English at all.) The staff were cheerful and kept the energy up, so I enjoyed the tour the whole time! The first line was scary, and I had a hard time jumping off, but from the second line on, it was fun to glide, and I wasn't scared anymore. I was able to slide backward and even upside down.

ジップラインをやりたくて送迎付きを申し込みました。
ピックアップの時間も時間通りでした。
日本人カップルが一組おり、後は外国の方ばかりでした。
英語でしか説明されないのですか、身振り手振りで分かりやすく説明してもらえます。
(全く英語が分からないと大変かもしれません)
スタッフも明るく、盛り上げてくれるのでツアー中ずっと楽しめました！！
1本目は怖くてなかなか飛び降りる事が出来なかったですが、2本目からは滑る事が楽しくて怖さはありません。
後ろ向きで滑ったり、逆さに滑ったり出来るようになりました。

Driver only spoke of food! Then it was not very clear on what was included so we missed the food trucks and NO lunch (after all talk and no food).

This was the best zip line experience I've ever done. Each line was a blast, the crew was fun to hang out with and they gave us drinks and food from the farm we flew over. The adventure of going from station to station was also fun. As the course went on they build your confidence to try new fun ways to fly. The views are spectacular of the North Shore. This experience is well worth the drive from Waikiki.

I was anxious because I couldn't communicate, but the instructor was very kind and attentive, so there were no problems at all.

Jumping from the top of the mountain was a very pleasant and enjoyable experience.

I brought my phone to take pictures, but I recommend not bringing it because if you drop it, it would be a serious issue.

言葉が通じないので不安だったがインストラクターの方はとても優しく丁寧だったのでなんの問題もなかった
山の上から飛ぶのは非常に気持ちよく楽しい体験をすることができました

写真を撮るために携帯を持って行ったのですが落としたらシャレにならないので持って行かないことをおすすめします

Saw at least 15 sharks!! We went on the last tour of the day and the waters were extremely choppy. I would book a tour first thing in the morning. Otherwise it was amazing!!

Our guide, Kai, was absolutely amazing! While we weren't able to make it to the swimming hole due to massive amounts of rain making it unsafe at the water crossings, he took us on an additional hiking section where we got to see various parts of the trail. The lunch provided was hand-made and was delicious... wish I knew how to make those rolls! I would more than recommend this excursion with Kai... he gets more than 5 stars!

Our zipline adventure was amazing! I am sure we help set the tone for the morning, but the guys were absolutely great! They were very personable, knowledgeable and really knew how to have fun with us. I would recommend this excursion for anyone who wants a little adventure and wants to have fun doing it!

On May 30th, I tried ziplining, which I had been interested in for a while during the Hawaiian holiday. It was refreshing! The views were amazing! As a middle-aged couple at 49, we were as excited as kids! The apple bananas at the water station were delicious. Although no one spoke Japanese, we had a fantastic time. If the price were a bit lower...

5/30ハワイの祝日に以前から興味があったジップラインをやってきました。
気分爽快！景色最高！49歳の中年夫婦　子供のようにはしゃいでしまいました！
途中の給水ポイントでのアップルバナナおいしかった。
日本語は一切通じませんが、めっちゃ楽しかったです。
値段がもう少し安ければ…

It was great, i got picked up and he drove out to the northshore, showed us around the town and then the activities started. He was very available to pickup after each activity and drop you off where you wanted to go. Waterfall, snorkeling, shrimp truck, beach time & stand up paddle board, it was great. There are other activities to pick from. He even stopped because he saw a sea turtle was sitting on the beach, so we could see it and take pics, it was great!

The zipline at Kualoa Ranch is a great option. One of the advantages of the Keana Farm is that you can choose the zipline alone, which is not possible at Kualoa, and it includes round-trip transportation. At Kualoa, you can opt for round-trip transportation if you select other tours like the buggy, but if you choose the zipline alone, transportation is not included, making it difficult to get there.

You will zipline seven times with a group of ten people and three local foreign guides over about three hours. The tour description mentions a buggy ride (1.5 hours), but this does not refer to a self-driven buggy like at Kualoa, nor is it actually 1.5 hours; it refers to about a 20-minute buggy ride between the first and second ziplines.

While it seems like snacks are included, it's better to assume there will be almost none. The ziplining itself is very enjoyable, and the foreign guides are cheerful and entertaining. They are also very thorough about safety, which gives a sense of reassurance that the staff is well-trained.

Perhaps because it’s a tour for foreigners, the pickup vehicle did not arrive at the scheduled time (laughs). It takes about an hour and a half to get to Keana Farm from Waikiki, which felt very far. It would be good to have warm clothing to endure the cold car interior. No Japanese is spoken at all. I would like to go again.

クアロア牧場でもできるジップライン。こちらのケアナファームの良い点はクアロアでは不可のジップライン単独の選択+往復送迎があること。クアロアの場合、バギーなどの他のツアーを併せて選択すると往復送迎可能だが、ジップライン単独で選択すると往復送迎が付いていないので行きづらい。
１０人１組に３人の現地外国人ガイドでジップラインを７本、約３時間かけてやります。
ツアー説明文にバギー（1.5時間）と書いてありますが、これはクアロアのような自分で運転するバギーでもなければ、1.5時間でもなく、1本目と2本目のジップライン間の移動のための２０分ぐらいのバギー移動のことを指します。
軽食がついているかのような説明がありますが、ほぼないと考えておいた方が良いです。
ジップライン自体は非常に楽しく、また外国人ガイドも非常に陽気で面白いです。またとにかく徹底して安全に配慮されていますので、スタッフの教育がなされている感があり安心できます。
外国人用のツアーだからかもしれませんが、ピックアップの時間に送迎車は来ません（(笑)）
ケアナファームまでワイキキから１時間半。非常に遠いと感じました。
冷蔵庫のように冷えた車内での移動に耐えられる防寒着があると良いです。
日本語は全く通じません。
また行きたいと思っています。

Trip was awesome! Would definetly do it again. The tour guide Angela was great!

This tour is a great way to see and experience the North Shore from the land and in the water. Our tour guide (HC) knew his way around the island like nobody's business. He went the extra mile to ensure we had a great time. Plenty of time for snorkeling, bike riding, checking out waterfalls, SUP or kayaking AND SHOPPING! I highly recommend!

What a great time! Not scary at all. We got awesome video! Definetly a must!

Organized, fun crew. Eight 8-10 foot Galapagos Sharks. Really exciting experience!

This was probably one of our more strenuous/lengthier hikes (water and proper footwear are highly recommended- it can get slippery on the trail). It was a lot of fun. We did cross some streams which were a bit difficult for some. You will get sweaty, wet, and dirty. No bathrooms, of course, so be prepared.
Great views. Tour guide was excellent, very passionate, helpful, and knowledgeable! Lunch was pretty good- everyone seemed to like it. Private mountain pool swim was enjoyed by most.

My husband and I were celebrating our 10 year anniversary in Hawaii and I had always wanted to go horse-back riding on the beach. This was a great place to do that, beautiful weather, even better scenery. We were very happy with the private sunset ride.

I wanted to go somewhere different and participate in an activity that not many Japanese people join, so I went with my 10-year-old child and my father. It requires physical stamina, but it was incredibly fun. However, there were absolutely no Japanese people, so it was English ONLY. My child can speak English, so we managed somehow (laughs).

いつもと違うところへ行きたくて、なおかつ日本人のあまり参加しないアクティビティということで私、子供10歳、私の父で参加してきました。体力はいりますが最高に楽しかったです。ただまったく日本人がいないので英語ONLYです。子供が英語話せるので何とかなりました(笑)

Guides were great and so was the zip line. I would definitely do it again.

I was worried about being able to ride a horse, but the horses were well-trained, and I was able to ride without any issues. The staff was very kind and took beautiful photos with my phone. Walking at sunset while looking at the beautiful Hawaiian sea was very elegant, and the sunlight was not too strong, making it comfortable.

馬に乗れるのか心配でしたが、よく慣れた馬達で、問題なく乗馬できました。
スタッフはとても優しくて、私の携帯で写真も綺麗に撮ってくれました。
綺麗なハワイの海を見ながらサンセットの散歩は、とても優雅で、
日差しも強くなく快適でした。
