Barely arrived on spot, shark fins started to show around our boat. That alone was already impressive and exciting!
While in the cage, you get to admire them gracefully swim around and under the cage... beauty!
Few tips:
- Waterproof phone pouch with wrist lanyard recommended to take underwater videos, we're so glad we had one! Just make sure not to live the whole experience through your phone ;)
- Even if you're not sea/motion sick, I suggest you have a ginger chew or two (Chimes brand are good). This will help settle your stomach as it can get bumpy under there.
Big thanks to our guides, very chill and knowledgeable!
PS: we also got to see dolphins splashing and following our boat on the way back, that was also priceless!

I thoroughly enjoyed it. It lasted about 1 hour and 15 minutes, I think. I was horseback riding. I was able to have a dynamic and refreshing ride while walking along the sea of the North Shore. However, the course and the order of walking are predetermined, so it might be a bit unsatisfying for those who are experienced in horseback riding. Nevertheless, you can still ride at breathtaking viewpoints.
十分過ぎるほど堪能しました。1時間15分くらいかな?乗馬してました。ノースショアの海の横を歩きながらダイナミックでさわやかな乗馬が出来ました。どうしても決められたコース、歩く順番も決められてるので、乗馬慣れしている方には物足りないかもしれません。ですがそれにも負けない、絶景ポイントで乗馬出来ますよ。

Everyone except us was from the West! I had high expectations after reading the reviews, but it wasn't simple English; it was quite advanced. I managed with the Japanese explanations on the consent form and the sign for how to slide. I think it would be difficult if trouble arises and you don't have the English skills to explain yourself.
The zip line offers a sense of freedom and the thrill of speed! You can see the ocean from the first two lines. Most of the area is a farm, so there's a lot of greenery. There are two safety harnesses, and they use very high ones with locks, so I felt safe sliding. The upside-down part was on the last line, and I mostly slid normally!
Westerners tend to be heavier, but I think people under 50 kg need to lift their legs to make it through most of the lines. If you stop midway or bounce back, it uses up the staff's effort.
In addition to the zip line, there are experiences like a suspension bridge and a vertical drop. There was also a part where you have to pull yourself up with just your arms, but that was very tiring; a woman from a foreign couple became grumpy (laughs).
I dropped my phone at the end, but luckily, the staff witnessed where it fell and found it unharmed. Tipping is not particularly required, but since they found my phone, I gave them a tip.
The staff will take care of your belongings! There was a locker for valuables, but I wasn't guided to it. For my belongings, there were no numbers; I just communicated the color, and it was retrieved with that exchange. The security is quite low.
Personally, I think it was below my expectations? I might have had high hopes from reading too many reviews.
自分達以外みんな欧米人でした!クチコミ読んで期待を抱いていましたが、簡単な英語とかではなくバリバリの英語です。承諾書と滑り方の看板の日本語の説明でなんとかと言った感じでした。トラブルが起きたときなど、自分のことを説明できる英語力がないと困ると思います。
ジップラインは開放感と速さのスリルを味わえます!景色も1.2本は先に海が見えたりします。ほとんどは農園なので緑が広がります。安全帯も2本あり、ロック付きのとても高いものを使っていて安心して滑ることができました。逆さまになるのは最後の方の1本で、ほとんど普通に滑りました!
欧米の方は体重がありますが、多分50キロ以下の人はほとんどの本数足を上げて滑らないと最後まで行けません。途中で止まったり、反動で帰ってしまうとスタッフの労力を使ってしまうことになります。
ジップラインだけでなく吊り橋や垂直にゆっくり落ちる体験もあります。自分の腕だけで上に上がるのもありましたが、これは非常に疲れました、外人のカップルの女の人は不機嫌になっていました(笑)
最後に携帯を落としてしまいましたが、スタッフが落ちたところを目撃してくれていて幸運にも無傷で発見してもらえました。チップは特段要求されませんが携帯を見つけてもらったので払いました。
荷物はスタッフが預かってくれます!貴重品ロッカーはあったけど案内されませんでした。荷物は番号とかなくて、何色か伝えて、これ?と言ったやりとりでとってもらう感じです。セキュリティ一は低いです。
個人的には期待より下だったかな?口コミを読みすぎて期待が大きかったのかもしれません。

I was able to ride comfortably in the great outdoors. Each time, there is some kind of mission, and I sometimes couldn't let go due to fear, but the overall feeling was exceptional. You can purchase the photos taken for an additional fee, but it was disappointing that they were mostly out of focus. However, that doesn't affect my overall evaluation this time.

When we arrived at the port, a suspiciously named boat called "Dangerous" came to greet us (laughs). Although they didn't speak Japanese, I could feel the staff's consideration. There was a manual in Japanese.
As soon as we set off, we saw a large group of dolphins swimming! The boat rocked quite a bit, and since I had read reviews, I took motion sickness medication beforehand. By the return trip, about half the people were feeling groggy, so the medication is essential.
Also, it was cold! Perhaps due to the weather, the sea at the activity site was chilly, and the return boat was extremely cold, so it's necessary to prepare for that. There were quite a few sharks. We could see them in groups for about ten minutes. At first, it was thrilling, but I gradually got used to it.
It was a great experience to snorkel with sharks, something you don't get to do often.

船はかなり揺れます、口コミを見ていたので酔い止めを飲んでいきました。

The pickup was about 15 minutes late.
It’s a car marked with "Keana Farm Zipline," so you can just wait at the meeting point.
The instructors can understand simple Japanese.
However, the explanations for the zipline and during the ride were in English, so I couldn't understand the conversations or jokes.
There was a spot along the way where we could break and eat bananas and macadamia nuts.
Communication with the instructors was manageable, so it was fine.
It was really fun!
You can bring your own camera; I had my iPhone, but I thought a GoPro would have been better.

Since the waves are less impactful, it was recommended to depart early in the morning, so I booked the 09:00 tour. It was expensive to include a shuttle, so I chose the plan to meet at the location with a rental car. It took about an hour to arrive from Honolulu. The reception and tour guide spoke only English, but there were also Japanese informational signs, so it wasn't inconvenient.
We arrived at the point about 20 minutes after departure, and many sharks gathered around the boat. When we arrived at the point, the waves were high, and I thought motion sickness medication was essential. Each group of 7-8 people entered the cage. I brought an underwater camera, but due to the waves, I couldn't take good photos. However, I was moved by the sight of sharks gracefully swimming right in front of me.

The zip line experience was amazing. The check-in is done on a tablet. After that, you put your belongings in a locker, which is quite small, so only valuables can fit. Other items can be stored at the reception. After putting on the gear, we set off. The instructions are in English, but you can understand them through the instructor's demonstration. Along the way, there are snacks like water, tomatoes, macadamia nuts, and bananas to keep you energized. I was satisfied with all seven zip lines. The movement felt like an athletic course and required some physical effort, but with support, it was manageable even for someone in their 50s. There was a helmet available for GoPro use. Since we experienced it with about ten people, it was a fun experience.
ジップライン最高でした。

We had a great tour with (creepy) Uncle Kevin today on the North Shore of Oahu! We've been touring all around the world and can seriously rank Uncle Kevin as one of the best tour guides. The Surf Bus has the right equipment, the right itinerary and an excellent attitude. The bus was on time at every stage and Kevin had good solid connections at every stage. He took the time to work with each group on tour to insure they had the right experience. Some of the stops had multiple options and he was able to call ahead to report those options to the vendor. Kevin recommended great food and knew how important this is to an all day tour. One unmistakable clue that Kevin really knows what he is doing is that he knew so many of the other folks involved with the tour on a personal level. He's a local. He knew all of the answers because he grew up here.
Great attention to detail makes for a great tour. Uncle Kevin obviously knows what he is doing and we look forward to going on another Oahu tour with him soon. Also, kudos to the bus company. They had the right equipment and marketing to make Kevin's expertise shine.
Thanks to my creepy uncle Kevin from Oahu. Mahalo!

First of all, Japanese is hardly understood here. Even if you're not good at English, it's better to have at least a basic understanding to keep up. Those who think they can get by without knowing any English in Hawaii might find some things difficult to understand. Many guidebooks mention that Japanese is often not spoken in the North Shore, and that's quite accurate.
There are seven zip lines, but the first one is a practice zip line that is about 300 meters long (including this practice, there are eight zip lines in total). After a brief explanation of the harness and equipment installation precautions, you jump right into the practice. There's no time to be scared; you just have to dive in (laughs). The first tower is about 7 to 8 meters high, I think. As someone with a fear of heights, I couldn't afford to be scared and went for the first practice. Family members and other participants also had to take their turns without hesitation. Once this practice was over, we took a nine-person buggy to the top of the mountain for the main event. The eight main zip lines started from there. There was a brief downpour during the ride, but the two hours flew by.
As the name "Keana Farm" suggests, we slid down over the farm, which felt really nice, and I think the longest zip line of 800 meters is possible because it's on a farm. The kids were also having a great time without any fear.
まず・・・日本語はほとんど通じません。英語が得意で無くとも何と無くやっとついて行ける程度で良いので分かった方が良いです。ハワイだから英語は微塵も分からなくて大丈夫と腹をくくってる人には逆に理解できないところが少し有るかも知れません。色んなガイドブックにノースショアの方は日本語が通じない事も多いと書かれてありますがそれに近いです。
7本のジップラインですが、最初のにいきなり300メートルくらいの練習ジップライン(この練習を含めると8本のジップライン)。ハーネスや金具の取り付け注意事項の説明の後すぐこの練習用で実践です。怖いとか言っている暇は無く有無を言わさず飛び込むしか有りません(笑)。最初の塔は7~8メートルくらいは有るのでしょうか。高所恐怖症の私ですが怖いなんか言ってられず1本目の練習を実践。家族や他の参加者の方々も次々と有無を言わさず順番が回ってきます。この練習が終われば本番の為9人乗りのバギーで山頂へ。ここから8本、本番がスタートです。途中スコールも数分降りましたが2時間強があっという間でした。
ケアナファームと言うだけあって、農園の上を次々と滑り降りていくのでとても気持ちよく最長800メートルという長さを経験できるのも農場だからなのだと思います。
子供たちも怖がらずとっても楽しんでました。

The oldest participant was 69 years old, and the youngest was 2 years old. We were looking for activities that everyone could enjoy, and we requested this horseback riding experience. The local staff do not speak Japanese, but they are friendly and kind, using gestures to communicate, so I think even those who are not good at English will be fine.
First, they asked if we wanted to wear helmets, and if we chose not to, we were asked to sign a consent form. Then, under the guidance of Sheina, my 2-year-old daughter rode a pony while the adults rode larger horses, taking a leisurely 20-minute walk in a single file through the grasslands and bushes. The horses ridden by the adults would sometimes stop to eat grass, so we had to kick the stirrups to encourage them to move forward, or pull the reins to bring them back into line if they started to walk too fast. It was a very valuable experience to operate the horse by ourselves for the first time.
At the end, my daughter was allowed to brush and feed the pony she was riding, and she was overjoyed (laughs). Even after returning home, she keeps talking about the pony (laughs). The only downside is that there is no transportation provided, so we had to make our own way to the North Shore. However, since we really wanted to go to Gunstock Ranch, we decided to charter a guided car and combine it with a tour of Haleiwa.
The grounds are vast, and the scenery seen while riding the horses is incredibly beautiful. The pleasant breeze and climate were very soothing. I would like to visit again when I come to Hawaii.
最年長は69歳、最年少は2歳、みんなでできるアクティビティーを探していてこちらの乗馬体験をお願いしました。
現地の方は日本語が話せないのですが、フレンドリーで親切な身振り手振りで教えてくれるので英語が苦手な方でも大丈夫だと思います。
最初にヘルメットをかぶるか聞かれて、かぶらない場合は同意書にサインを求められます。
そしてシェイナさんの先導で2歳の娘はポニー、大人は大きな馬に乗って草原や茂みを約20分一列縦隊でお散歩するのですが、大人の乗る馬は途中で草を食べ始めたり止まったりするので、その都度あぶみを蹴って前進を促したり、逆に早足になったら手綱を引いて列に戻るよう促したりと、自分で馬を操作するなんて初めてのとても貴重な体験をさせていただきました。
最後は2歳の娘が乗っていたポニーにブラッシングやえさやりをさせてくれて、娘は大喜び(笑)帰国してもずっとポニーの話をしています(笑)
唯一の難点は、送迎がないのでノースショア方面まで自分で行かなければいけないことですが、どうしてもガンストック牧場でお願いしたかったのでガイド付きの車をチャーターしてハレイワ観光とセットで行くことにしました。
敷地が広大で馬に乗って見る景色は大変美しく、心地よい風と気候で癒されました。またハワイに訪れる際は立ち寄りたいと思います。

I was curious about the zip line after watching Ariyoshi's summer vacation. I made a reservation in Hawaii with my friends.
Since we had a rental car, we went directly to the meeting point at the scheduled time. We entered the necessary information on the screen and stored our valuables in a locker. After getting fitted with the equipment, we started practicing.
We climbed to the top using a caterpillar while receiving explanations about the farm's crops, and then it was time for the main event!
We slid down about eight zip lines. There were also various other activities!
At first, I was worried about whether I could handle it, but it was so much fun.
You can bring your smartphone without any issues, but it’s a bit concerning if you don’t have pockets with zippers. Having a GoPro would be even better!

Horseback riding in Hawaii. There are various options, but this was the only place I found that allows small children to ride, so I made a request.

It was a unique experience that you can't have in Japan, and I really enjoyed it. My 2-year-old daughter fell asleep, so her dad rode instead. I had only made a reservation for my grandchild, but they easily accommodated changing it to one adult for my grandchild and adding another adult.

At first, I was a bit nervous waiting for the van, which arrived about 20 minutes late. I was worried along with a foreign couple who were also waiting, thinking maybe they overslept since no one said anything. I had read everyone’s experiences beforehand, so I took motion sickness medication before participating. I usually don’t get motion sickness, so I was fine, but my mother is prone to it. She was okay until we got on the boat, but once we were in the water, the waves were quite rough, and she ended up feeling sick. A few foreign participants in the tour also got sick, and some were even vomiting.
We entered the cage with about 3 to 4 groups, and during that time, the crew scattered food, attracting a lot of sharks. They came quite close, but they didn’t attack, and it was thrilling to see them up close. It was a unique experience, and the elderly foreign couple with us was quite excited! There were changing areas and restrooms available, but everyone just wore shirts over their swimsuits and went home like that. There was also a small shop where we bought snacks and drinks while waiting for the van to arrive. I definitely think you should give it a try!
初めは、少し緊張しながらバンを待っていたのですが、20分くらい遅刻して来て一緒にまってな外国人夫婦と、まだ来ないね…と心配していました。特に何も言わなかったので寝坊かな??と思いました。そして、皆さんの体験談を読んで居たので、あらかじめ酔い止めを飲んで参加しました。もともと乗り物酔いしないタイプだったので、私は、酔わなかったのですが、母が乗り物酔いしやすいタイプで、船に乗ってゲージまで行くところまでは、元気だったのですが、逆に海の中に入ってからの方が波の揺れも激しく、そこで酔ってしまってしました。一緒にツアーに参加した数人の外国人の方も酔っていて、吐いている人もいました。ゲージの中へは、3組~4組くらい一緒に入って、その間にクルーの人達がエサをまいてくれるので、サメがたくさん寄ってきてくれます。でも、近くまで来ても襲って来ることも無く、かなり近くで見れて迫力があります。なかなか出来ない体験なので、一緒に居た高齢の外国人夫婦もかなり興奮していました!!一応着替える場所、トイレもあるのですが、みんな水着の上にシャツを着てそのまま帰っていました。あとは小さな売店??みたいなのが来ていて、迎えのバンが来るまでスナックやジュースを買って待っていました。是非、参加してみてもいいと思います。

It was our family's first trip to Hawaii and our first horseback riding experience. Initially, we had booked the horseback riding experience at Kualoa Ranch, but due to overcapacity, we switched to this tour. Since we were traveling by rental car, I had some concerns, but we arrived without getting lost. The reception counter had explanations in Japanese, so even though I could hardly understand the staff's English, I felt at ease while riding. The horses were well-trained and took us on a leisurely stroll along the beach. The kids (elementary and middle school students) were looking forward to this horseback riding, and it seems they had a wonderful time as expected. Thank you to all the staff!
家族4人での初ハワイ&初乗馬体験でした。当初、クアロアランチの乗馬体験を申し込んだのですが、定員オーバーのため、こちらのツアーにしました。レンタカーでの移動のため、不安もありましたが、迷うことなく到着できました。受付カウンターには日本語の説明文が用意されており、スタッフの英語がほとんど聞き取れなかった私でも、安心して乗馬できました。馬たちはよく調教されており、ゆっくりと浜辺を散策してくれました。子どもたち(小学生と中学生)はこの乗馬を楽しみにしており、期待通りの素晴らしい時間を過ごせたようです。スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました。

This was a great tour! The driver was very good & had a lot of knowledge about the island! We stopped at a Macadamia nut farm & we didn’t even know that it was a scheduled stop! It was pretty cool! We snorkeled & went kayaking as well! They were all exciting activities! You definitely don’t want to rush the experience!

At first, it’s scary, but once you get used to it, it becomes fun. You walk a lot, cross suspension bridges, and climb ropes, but there was a 77-year-old participant who was doing great! It’s something you can’t easily do in Japan, so I think it’s a good experience to try at least once.
最初は怖いですが慣れると楽しくなります。たくさん歩くし、吊り橋を渡ったり、ロープを登ったりしますが、77歳の方が参加されていて頑張っていました!日本ではなかなかできないので一度でいい体験するといいとおもいます。

In Hawaii, I went on a tour with a major tour company, but the optional tours were fully booked, so I made a reservation through this site myself. I felt a bit anxious participating in a tour without any other Japanese people, but both the driver and the local staff were kind and explained everything in English, so it all worked out. At first, I was a bit nervous about the zip line, but once I got used to it, it was fine. The speed and the views while doing it were amazing.
大手ツアーで行ったハワイで、ツアー会社のオプショナルツアーでは満席で予約取れず、自分でこのサイトを通じて予約しました。
日本人のいないツアーで不安を感じながらも妻と参加しました。でもドライバーさんも、現地スタッフも優しく英語で丁寧に説明してくれたので、何とかなっちゃいました。
ジップライン自体は最初だけ少しビビりましたが、慣れたら大丈夫でした。やってる時のスピードや景色は最高です。

When we first got on our tour and the guide introduced himself I didn't hold out much hope of learning anything from someone who said they had only lived in Hawaii for 3 years but Steve turned out to be a fountain of knowledge. He made the day an extremely enjoyable one, so much information given and funny too. he should also release his soundtrack to the Circle Tour, he had a song for every stop it was awesome! My only criticism would be too many beach photo stops not enough time at Waimea Waterfall and Dole Plantation.
Hi Kelly,
Thanks for your 5 star review of Steve and our adventure.
Aloha,
Michael

You never get tired of seeing sandbar and Galapagos sharks in their natural environment. Third time out with OneOcean and second with safety diver Kayleigh. We even were treated to surfacing humpbacks on the way out! Look forward to my fourth dive!
