I woke up early and waited at the designated pickup location, but even after 15 minutes past the scheduled time, no one came to pick me up. I called the phone number provided, but I reached a voicemail saying "outside of business hours." The hotel staff called several times for me, and I finally got through, but by that point, it was already 30 minutes past the pickup time. During the conversation with the staff, they mentioned they "forgot" and suggested I join a tour two hours later. They also said, "As an apology, we will give you a T-shirt," but... I had plans with a friend afterward, but since I was already there, I had my friend change their plans so I could join the tour two hours later. I never received the promised T-shirt, and I ended up causing a lot of inconvenience to the hotel staff and my friend. The response of "I forgot" was just too careless. I would like a refund. The tour itself wasn't very impressive, and the sea was rough, causing the boat to sway, and it was uncomfortable even inside the cage due to high waves. Including the service, I cannot recommend this. Also, I made the reservation here considering the reputation and reliability of Veltra, so I hope Veltra does not list such careless tour operators.
早起きして指定のピックアップ場所で待ちましたが、時間を15分過ぎても迎えが来なかった為、記載されていた電話番号に電話をしましたが、“営業時間外”との留守番電話で繋がらず。
ホテルスタッフも何度か電話してくれて、やっと繋がりましたが、この時点でピックアップ時刻を30分も過ぎていました。
スタッフとのやり取りで「忘れてた」との事で、2時間後のツアーに参加を勧められました。
またこの時、「お詫びにTシャツを差し上げます」と言われていたのですが…。
このあと友人と予定があったのですが、せっかくだし、友人にあとの予定を変更してもらって2時間後のツアーに参加しました。
約束されていたTシャツは頂ける事はなかったし、ホテルスタッフ、友人など沢山の方に迷惑をかけてしまう事になりました。
とにかく「忘れてた」とか対応がいい加減過ぎます。
返金して頂きたいぐらいです。
ツアー自体も迫力はそんなにありませんし、海が荒れて舟が揺れるのはもちろん、ゲージの中でも高波で苦しいです。対応も含め、おすすめできません。
また、自分自身、ベルトラの知名度や信頼度も含めてこちらで予約させて頂いているので、ベルトラもこのようないい加減なツアー催行会社は掲載しないで頂きたいです。

After arriving at the location, I tried to make a reservation for the ZipLine at Kualoa Ranch, but it was fully booked until my return date. Just when I was in trouble, I found this ZipLine at Keana Farm online and was able to make a reservation through VELTRA. There were hardly any Asian guests besides us, and the English-only service heightened the overseas experience even more.

At North Shore, most of the riders were Westerners, and there were few Japanese people. I couldn't forget the horseback riding at Turtle Bay, so this time I decided to try the Hawaii Polo Club. This club trains retired polo horses for riding. The horse I rode was gentle and easy to ride. We set off with a group of six: four Western families, one solo Western rider, and me! It was a bit windy, but walking near the ocean was very pleasant. I was a little disappointed that we couldn't canter. It's about a 15 to 20-minute taxi ride from the town of Haleiwa towards Mokuleia Beach. Since there is no shuttle service, it's convenient to go by rental car. I would love to go again when I visit Hawaii.
ノースショアは、乗馬してる人は欧米人ばかりで、日本人は少ないです。タートルベイでの乗馬が忘れられず、今回はHawaii Polo Clubに行ってみました。ここはPolo競技を引退した馬を乗馬用に調教して乗せてくれるクラブでした。私が乗った馬も穏やかで安心して乗れる馬でした。欧米人の家族連れ4人とお一人様欧米人と私の6名で出発!少し風が強かったですが、すぐ側に海が迫っている場所を歩くのは、とても気持ち良かったです。駈歩はさせてくれないのが少し残念でした。ハレイワの町からタクシーでモクレイアビーチ方面に向かって15分〜20分位の場所です。送迎無しなのでレンタカーで行くの
が便利です。またハワイに来たら行きたいです。

This was my second time on the zip line! It was amazing! I want to go again so badly!
It started to rain (a downpour?) halfway through, and I got completely soaked, but it only lasted about 10 minutes before the sky cleared up again. Of course, I didn't have a raincoat or anything, so I was wet the whole time. It was so much fun that I thought, "Anything goes!"
However, there was a problem with the pickup location. Even though I arrived on time, it seemed like they decided I wasn't there right away, and I ended up waiting for 30 minutes. I had to call them to finally get picked up, which was good, but this happened both the first and second time, and it was really frustrating.
I would have appreciated it if they could have specified the location more clearly or called out names to help with the pickup.
If I get the chance to go again, I would definitely like to participate!
ジップライン2回目です!最高です!
本当にもう一回行きたい!と思えほど最高です。
途中で雨(スコール?)が降って来て、びしょ濡れになりましたが、10分くらい降ってすぐまた快晴になりました。
もちろん、カッパなどはありませんので、ま濡れながらです。楽しいので、なんでもありって思っちゃいます!!
ただ、ピックアップの場所の指定が難ありです。集合時間に着いているのに、すぐ居ないと判断されたみたいで、30分経ってもずーっと待ちぼうけでした。
こちらが電話をしてなんとか、迎えに来てもらえたのでよかったですが、1回目も2回目もそんな状況で、本当に困ります。
もう少し具体的に、場所を指定してもらったり、名前を読み上げてもらったり、そんな対応をして頂けたらもっと嬉しかったです。
また行ける機会があれば、是非参加したいです!

I had a very satisfying experience that I couldn't have in Japan. The driver explained various places in English on the way, and took us to famous spots for a little sightseeing.
After that, we arrived at the farm and checked in with an iPad. Since it was in English, I couldn't understand everything that was written, but I think it was an explanation of the risks.
It's also possible to take photos with your mobile phone. If there are measures in place to prevent it from falling, I definitely think you should bring it along.
It's a very expensive activity, but I believe it is worth the value.
日本では体験できない体験ができて非常に満足。

The sharks were accustomed to people and there was no sense of danger at all. About 10 sharks, around 4 meters long, came by, but they had no aggression and it wasn't very interesting. It might be more entertaining if bait was placed near the cage. They were swimming around the cage, so it felt lacking. I bought the footage for $75, but there were people who weren't buying any interesting footage positioned between me and the camera, so I didn't appear much in it. Overall, it felt like there was a lack of consideration and it was quite unsatisfying.
サメも慣れていて危険な感じは全くない。
サメは4メートルくらいのか10数匹来たが、殺気はなく、面白くはなかった。
檻の付近にエサを付けてたら面白いかも。
かごを避けて泳いでいるので、物足りない。
映像を75ドルで買ったが、どうでも良い映像を買っていない輩がカメラとの間に配置されててあまり映ってない。
本当に配慮も足らず物足りない感じでした。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide the service that met your expectations.
There are about five types of sharks that you may encounter on this tour, but please understand that, as they are wild animals, there may be instances where you do not see the specific type you hoped for. The videos sold by the operating company cannot be filmed by staff underwater, making it difficult to adjust the filming targets. Additionally, I will communicate the lack of consideration for our customers during the tour to the operating company and ensure that the responsible staff receives proper guidance. I deeply apologize for causing you discomfort during your valuable trip.
We take your feedback seriously and, together with the operating company, will strive to improve our services in the future. Thank you very much for your valuable feedback during your busy time.

We went as a family of five on June 17, 2017. Even though we don't speak English, it was not a problem at all. There were staff members at the front desk who spoke Japanese and provided detailed explanations to other Japanese guests as well. However, at the zip line location, it was English only, but it was interesting how we could somehow understand it. There are various poses for sliding, but since we were allowed to go after the others, just imitating the person in front of us was fine. The scenery is beautiful, so I think it's better to take your camera with you instead of leaving it in the locker. Even if you don't have one, the staff will take plenty of photos, but it comes at a cost. There is one spot where you have to climb up to the top of the tower using a rope by yourself, but the staff will help you, so there are no issues with progress. (The next day, I had muscle soreness.) As mentioned in other experiences, it does take time to travel from the Waikiki area, which is a downside, but you can sleep well on the way back. The scenery is absolutely amazing!
2017/6/17に家族5人で行ってきました。英語の喋れない私たちでも全く問題ありません。

それと一ヶ所だけ自分の力で塔の上までロープで登る所がありますが、スタッフがヘルプしてくれるので進行には問題ありません。(翌日は筋肉痛)他の体験談にもありますが、ワイキキ地区からは移動に時間がかかってしまうのは難点ですが、帰りの車は充分爆睡できますよ^^;

Picked this tour to the north shore due to the choice of activities and since it had pick up from Waikiki. Mike was our guide and informative. Snorkelled at Shark's cove then headed to Waimea Bay for some snorkelling and beach time. Then chose to paddle boarding down the river near Haleiwa instead of kayaking. Ended the tour at Haleiwa. Good tour for the time spent up north and activities you could participate in and p/u provided.

I arrived about 40 minutes ago, and the staff was already waiting. There were only two groups of four people for the horseback riding at 1:30 PM: my husband and I, and a group of foreign women. I thought we would go together, but we ended up on separate courses and never saw each other, which made it feel exclusive. The horse was very intelligent and well-groomed, so I felt safe and enjoyed myself. The guide couldn't speak Japanese, but she engaged with us, which was fun. And above all, the location nestled between the mountains and the sea was perfect. I was able to relax and had a wonderful time.

It was a little intimidating at first, but the guides were always watchful above and below the water so I felt as safe as you possible could be given the chosen activity. The only thing I would say could be better was finding what area you are suppose to be to board the boat, there are no signs for check in or really where you are suppose to be and I wish I would have taken my camera I wanted some pictures but felt the group rate was too high. I would recommend this to anyone!

I participated in the local gathering because I wanted to explore various places. For some reason, there were no other Japanese people, and the rest were mostly foreigners, divided into three groups to enter the cage. I took motion sickness medication, but it swayed quite a bit. Even when stationary, it still swayed, so I think it's better to avoid it if you're not feeling well. There are many awake animals, but they seemed quite used to people, so it wasn't particularly scary. However, if you get too close, the cage itself might seem like it could let an Asian-sized person slip out, which could be frightening. Activities like this are not available in Japan, and I really enjoyed it.
他にも色々回りたかったために現地集合で参加しました。なぜか日本人は他にいなくあとは外国の方ばかりで3つのグループに分かれゲージに入ります。酔い止め飲んでいましたが、かなり揺れます。止まっていても揺れるので体調が悪い状況では特にやめた方がいいと思います。また覚めはたくさんいますが、基本人馴れしているのかあまり怖いという状況はなかったです。かといってあまり近すぎてもゲージ自体がアジア人の体型なら抜けていきそうなので、怖いと思います。こういったアクティビティは日本にはないしかなり楽しめました。

On May 31, 2017, my husband and I participated! Recently, ziplining has become popular in Japan, and we were very interested. At that time, I happened to find this perfect site while browsing and immediately made a reservation!
On the day of the event, they picked us up at a nearby hotel, and we headed to Keana Farm with the other participants! Besides us, all four other couples were from English-speaking countries, and our driver couldn't speak Japanese, which made us a bit anxious. However, there was an instructor on-site who was fluent in Japanese, which put us at ease.
We put on our gear and got started! I thought the first line would be a bit scary, but it turned out to be an amazing thrill! While moving around the farm in a buggy, the instructor was kind, fun, and safety-conscious, and before we knew it, our enjoyable time had flown by. I felt like Spider-Man amidst the magnificent nature of Hawaii.

Had a great time swimming with the sharks even though it was in a cage. It was a little windy and the waves were rocking the boat so make sure you can take the rough waters. One got really sick from the motion but only one. It was really fun and well worth it. These sharks were very docile but swam by gracefully for some really good picture taking. I nor anyone on the boat ever felt unsafe swimming with the sharks. So much fun.

Can't say enough about how awesome this was! Wish I could do it every day. Was quite nervous at first but once you get in the water it is so calming to just watch the sharks in their world. The Island View guys were great, gave us all the info we needed before getting in and answered all of our questions.
My only advice for the company is to give a bit more instruction on finding you at the harbor - all we really had was the name of the boat (which is outdated) and we can't exactly walk the whole place reading boat names. We found them eventually and all was well.
If you have the time, this is absolutely a must-do in Oahu. You won't regret it.

My brother and I have long been shark fans. As a keen diver I've seen the occasional reef shark but wanted to see something bigger. We went out on the boat (limited to 6 of us) and after a short ride arrived at the site where we spent probably half an hour by the boat (holding onto the lines) then free swimming and diving with Galapagos and Sandbar sharks (around 40 at one point but always at least 15 around us at varying depths). There were multiple times when we could have touched one with a flipper they were that close but we didn't feel threatened at all (although i would be lying if I said we weren't a bit scared). There was only one shark that bared his teeth to us which was amazing to view and again not threatening. The staff made us feel very safe and are very passionate about the sharks. I've dived around the world but never come across an opportunity to swim with this many large sharks in the wild. I cannot recommend this enough. #HelpSaveSharks
