The trip around the island was great I would highly recommend Veltra tours. The trip was made even better by our guide Bethany who was an endless wealth of knowledge, we did this trip2 years ago with another company and I can honestly say that we learnt 10 times more with your tour.

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

Shark Cage Swim

Reviewed by: Nathan N

The was an awesome activity to do! My wife and I didn't want to go out and free swim with shark so this cage was perfect. We had a great crew that was nice, entertaining and took care of us. A very enjoyable time! A little tip is to go earlier in day because after about 9:30 or 10 the water starts to get rougher and rocks the boat more.

North Shore Hiking Tours from Haleiwa with Expert Local Guide & Lunch

Awesome Hike!!!

Reviewed by: webstersway

We met Keola Nui at the North Shore Market Place, he introduced himself and let us know we would be the only ones on the hike that day. We could not have asked for a better guide. Nui was very knowledgeable about the land we were going to be hiking on, letting us know about the different farms along the road to the trail. He explained the history behind the current lay out of the farms. When we arrived at the trailhead, there was a light mist falling as Nui offered a prayer to the land in the native tongue to reassure it that we were there on peaceful terms. The trail itself was unbelievably beautiful. There were moments where we were complete enclosed in the jungle, then, it would open up to expose the sky and the mountain stream below. Again, Nui was very knowledgable about the flora and fauna, explaining the difference between the native and invasive plants. We encountered a few berries along the trail that we were able to sample, they tasted very much like raspberries. We hiked in for a couple of hours and ended up having lunch on some rocks in the middle of the stream, very cool!!! We then headed back, though there was much more to be seen, we were on a schedule and did not have the time to hike any further. When we had packed away our gear, Nui drove us the the Boy Scout Camp nearby to an absolutely incredible overlook...we did not want to leave!!! This is definitely a hike everyone should try, you'll learn so much about Oahu. Thank you Nui for a truly outstanding experience!!!

Aloha! Bring your hiking shoes!

Reviewed by: Stoner

If your family is into the outdoors and adventure that is totally off the beat and path, book this tour. It is exclusive as the park is not accessible to the public. So you know, our family age ranges from 13 to 51. It was breathtaking- literally - not only from the views, but from the hiking. We hiked up the mountain trails crossing streams.
Our guides, Nui and Holly we very knowledgeable not only with the history but the plants and trees of the land.
The treat was to hike to a secluded pond and jump into the cool waters! Wow!
A bit of advice, wear comfortable shoes and water shoes are a must! Crossing the streams can be a bit challenging, as are some areas during the hike. Definitely grab a walking stick. It is about a 6 mile hike, 3 up and 3 back. All was about 6 hours.
Lunch is provided and we packed extra water. Nui and Holly were hands on assisting the entire hike. Awesome people! Mahalo!

It was a so-called experiential horseback riding where we only walked at a trot along the side roads and through the coastal woodland, rather than riding at the polo field. The photo was taken while walking through the woodland, and we did not walk at all along the coastline.

For beginners. 初心者向け

Reviewed by: ゆ～りちゃん

I usually take riding lessons, so I thought I would be able to ride at the polo field by participating in this, but that wasn't the case. It was just a so-called experience ride, where we walked at a leisurely pace along the side roads and by the sea. I thought we could walk along the beach, but the waves were rough, and we couldn't get close. When I asked the guide (who seemed to be the youngest in a family business), she said it’s always rough there. The photos posted by Alan 1 were just taken on the beach for the purpose of photography. After it was over, I mentioned that I couldn't do any cantering, and I was told there is an advanced course that has a reservation for tomorrow, but since I was returning home the next day, I had to regretfully decline. It's a shame that Alan 1 didn't have that course available.

普段乗馬を習っていて、これに参加したらポロ競技場で乗馬ができるのかと思っていたのですが、違いました。側道や海沿いを並足で歩くだけのいわゆる体験乗馬でした。
途中で海岸を歩けるのかと思ったら、波が荒くて近寄れなくて、ガイドの女の子に聞いたら（ファミリービジネスの末っ子さんらしい）いつも荒れてるとのことで・。
アラン１さん掲載の写真は写真を撮るために浜辺に入って撮影するだけのものでした。
終わった後に、駈け足ができなかったと伝えたら、アドバンスドコースというのがあるらしく、明日予約が入るのでそちらでどうかと言われましたが翌日帰国だったのであえなく断念しました。アラン１さんにそのコースがなかったのが残念です。

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

Amazing Shark Adventure

Reviewed by: webstersway

I must admit, I was a bit apprehensive about this adventure as the fateful morning arrived. We were in Oahu visiting our Son and his wife, she was particularly interested in the shark tour. My wife, on the other hand, would have none of it, fortunately, they have an 'Observer' option available. We boarded the Kai Ou after removing our shoes and headed out. The Captain explained that the sharks had become accustomed to the sound of the engines since there had been crabbing done in the past and they would not need to chum the water...we were going to be the bait. The water was absolutely beautiful, a bit on the choppy side, however, which made entering the cage a little more adventurous. It was really amazing being in the water with the sharks all around, there were between 8 and twelve, plus a few other fish, including some very large Trumpet Fish. I think my wife got the worst end of the deal as she was sea sick when we got back in the boat. The crew members were awesome, I would definitely recommend this adventure!!!

North Shore Hike

Reviewed by: Ashley

I live here on the island and do a good amount of hiking. I thought this hike was pretty cool! Our guide, Nui, was extremely knowledgeable about the Hawaiian culture and plants in the area. The trail has TONS of strawberry guava and mountain apple trees along it. He pointed out plants that were native. He also pointed out the invasive plants, the problems they cause, and how or why they were brought here. It was very interesting! What made this hike special for me was is that we were hiing deep into the mountains where there aren't any houses or sign of urban development in view. This is quite rare for me. Most of the hikes I've done, known or less known, have some area that shows a city or buildings or concrete structures. Nui also stopped at a campsite to let us get some beautiful scenic pictures. This was my favorite part of the trip. The view of rows of ridges and the valley that we were hiking in was breathtaking.

It was fun! 楽しかったよ～

Reviewed by: gunhead

It was more fun than I expected. At first, I was nervous, but once I took off, it was exhilarating. The instructors were cheerful, but they were also very thorough about safety, which made me feel secure. There are a total of seven lines. At first, I was tense for no reason, but by the last two lines, I was able to start backward and even do a peace sign upside down. While gliding (or more accurately, while flying), it felt amazing, and combined with the vast scenery of Keana Farm, it was an emotional first-time experience. You don't need any special physical strength or skills. I highly recommend experiencing the fun of flying in the sky. If I have the chance, I would definitely do it again.

予想以上に楽しかったです。
最初は、ドキドキ、一度、飛んでしまえば、ワクワクです。
インストラクターの方々は、陽気ですが、安全は、徹底していて、安心できます。
ラインは、全部で、7本。
最初は、必要以上に力んでしまいますが、最後の2本位になると、後ろ向きで、スタート出来たり、逆様で、ピースサインとかも、出来るようになります。
滑空(正確には、滑走)中は、とても気持ち良く、ケアナファームの広大な景色と相まって人生初体験の感動です。
別段、体力や、技術は入りません。
楽しく、空を飛ぶ感覚を是非、経験して見てください。

1.5 hours wasn't enough!! １．５時間じゃ足りなかった～！！

Reviewed by: sae

We participated as a family of three.
My husband had his first horseback riding experience, and my 8-year-old son rode alone for the first time.
Honestly, I thought my husband would have a nonchalant reaction like, "Well, it's for the kid's experience..."
We were even discussing going to the zoo the day before, but there were plenty of animals here (＾ｕ＾).
None of the staff spoke Japanese.
They gave simple explanations and chatted, and just when we were getting ready, a wild horse appeared!!!
It was nerve-wracking to think, "Who will ride it?!" but of course, the staff member rode it (phew!).
Everyone took turns mounting the horse for photos! We got some really wonderful and cool pictures!
For a while after we set off, the photographer walked ahead to take pictures for us.
We climbed the red dirt mountains unique to Hawaii, enjoying the flowers, trees, and birds, and arrived at an amazing scenic spot!!!
In the refreshing breeze, we saw vast grasslands and the ocean.
It was the best!
On the way down, we pointed out the areas with good views, indicating quite a bit higher up the mountain.

I was worried about my 8-year-old, but since the horse was well-trained, there were no issues.
At one point, the horse seemed like it was going to run, and I panicked and stopped it, but my son actually wanted it to run...
My husband, who I was also worried about, said, "I underestimated horseback riding! It was amazing! I want to do it again!" sounding like a kid.

On the way back, we could stop by North and stroll around,
and we will definitely go to Gunstock Ranch again!
I absolutely recommend it!

家族３人で参加しました。
旦那＝初乗馬、息子８歳＝初一人乗り。
正直、旦那の「まあまあ、子供の経験の為にね・・・」的などうでもよかったみたいな感想が来るかと思ってました。
前日の動物園でも行こうか？なんて話してたんですが、
ここで十分な位いろんな動物がいました（＾ｕ＾）
スタッフは全員日本語話せません。
簡単に説明やら雑談やらして、そろそろって時に荒馬登場！！！
「誰が乗るか？！」とドキドキでしたが、勿論スタッフさんが乗りました（ホッ！）
皆、順番で馬にまたがり写真撮影！　　すご～く素敵でかっこいい写真がとれました！
出発して暫くはカメラマンも徒歩で先回りして取ってくれました。
ハワイ特有の赤土の山を、花や木や鳥を見ながら登って行き、すごい風景の場所に到着！！！
気持ちいい風の中、広がる草原、海。
最高でした！
下る途中に、景色の良かった場所はあそこら辺だって、結構山の上の方を指してました。

心配していた８歳も、しつけられた馬だったので問題なし。
途中馬が走りそうになりビビって止めたんですが、本人は走って欲しかったって・・・
こちらも心配していた旦那ですが、「乗馬舐めてた！最高だった！またやりたい！」

I got hooked on horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch and was looking for other places to ride when I found Gunstock Ranch. I took The Bus, but there was no name at the bus stop. It was a bit of a gamble. No Japanese is spoken at the ranch. However, everyone was very friendly and responded with smiles, which was really nice!! I had a wonderful time riding through areas that made me think, "Are we really going here?!" It was a forest-like setting, and I enjoyed leisurely riding while watching cows and other horses.

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

Perfect setup if you want to do North Shore, but Not sure what activities

Reviewed by: John A

My wife and I were staying in Waikiki for a week and everyone said we need to make a trip to the North Shore when on Oahu. We scoured Trip Advisor, Yelp and other Hawaii Adventure sites and this one looked appealing. Turns out to be a great deal if you are looking for transportation to the North Shore and a variety of options to choose from once you get there. We chose to snorkel in the mornng at Sharks Cove then spend an hour at Waimea Bay, then in the afternoon we did the SUP down the river in Halewia.
The tour is setup where they pick you up on a ~20 person bus from multiple Waikiki hotels, then up a narrated drive up to the North Shore which took about 1 1/2 hours all together. Sam was our host for the day and is awesome at his job. Very knowledgable, humourous and makes the tour a good time. Once you are there, you get to see the options for the day such as hanging at the beach of Waimea Bay, surfing, snorkeling, beach bike cruise, Waimea Botanical Gardens, stand up paddle boarding and probably a few others options that I am missing. There is no additional cost to do these unless you want to do more than two. If there was one draw back for the day, it was that we could have enjoyed a few more hours on the beach and shopping at the local surf shops there.
Overall, great trip and glad we did it!

We are a couple well over 60 years old. In March, we went to Maui and boldly tried activities we had never done in Hawaii before. As shown in the photo, we wore sturdy harnesses and helmets, trusting our lives to pulleys and wire ropes as we soared from about 300 meters to 800 meters. At first, we glided a couple of times over a grassy area, and then crossing the valley was thrilling.

It was over in a flash, but we had a great time. Next time, we will bring our grandchildren.

I participated with my 10-year-old and 7-year-old children. It was English-only, but there was a brochure written in Japanese, so I didn't have any particular difficulties. The waves were calm, but there was enough rocking that I felt a bit seasick even after taking motion sickness medication. However, once we were in the cage, there were so many sharks that I forgot about the seasickness and had a great time. My 7-year-old son loves sharks, so he was very excited. When he drew a picture of a shark and gave it to the captain on the way back, the captain was very happy. Later, I heard from a local that many participants were from Australia, and while there are shark tours in Australia, they are extremely expensive, so everyone seems to do them here. I bought the DVD for $75, and it became a wonderful memory. I want to go again, but I'm a bit scared of seasickness...

North Shore Hiking Tours from Haleiwa with Expert Local Guide & Lunch

Eco tours hike was informative and very nice

Reviewed by: Dan and Denise

Me and and my girlfriend both liked the young guides who picked us up at the North Shore Marketplace parking lot. It was just us two so we felt very privilidged. The Hawaiian guide drove for about 20 min through many farms and got to know much abut them and who owned them, unfortunately much of the land were rented by Monsantos. Part of the drive was very bumpy but became much better when we got unto the military roads. The hike was not that hard mostly because the water wasn´t that high this time. It was partly slippery but our sneekers was enough to manage it. There were some very niice sceneries and crossig over the river and the mountain pool swim at the summit was very pleasent and just what we needed after a 2.5 hours hike. We got to use helmets but just for a very short time. The lunch was two wraps each and was more than enough for us.
The hawaiian native guide told us much about the the hawaiian culture and the problems hawaiians have had keeping their language alive. We also got to know about much about the different plants and trees, and the tight bond to nature hawaiina have had, he also made a hawaiian chant to the forrest when we just started the hike which was very nice to hear. We would recommend this hike to all our friends.

Horseback riding on the sandy beach was only for taking photos; we just slowly walked along the flat path by the coast. The scenery and sea breeze were pleasant.

My sister and I have some experince riding horses and were very excited after booking this excursion. When we arrived, it was clear that the horses were well taken care of.

They were very alert and attentive to those who had never ridden before, were informative about the island, answered all of our questions and they were sure to get us to the sunset view in time. Safety was a first priority and Sarah and Gina were very aware of taking great pictures of all of us. The only suggestion I have is that booking this excursion requires a car. We took the bus to the last stop on the route then had to walk three miles to the polo club which was fine on the way in but we had to hitch a ride on the way back because it was after dark and we were not comfortable walking back to the bus stop.

We had learned so much Hawaiian historical facts, such as endemic versus native species of plants and animals, special trees and plants such as the Koa tree, ohia lehua, and the strawberry guava tree. Keola and Holly are excellent guides! The one thing that I highly valued is that you can ask them anything! They will tell you if they know about it, and if they don't they will either call you or email me and give you the answer! Many other tour guides on other hikes, tend to come up with excuses, or falsified facts. But not Keola or Holly. We had great views of the swimming pools (water ponds), nice high clouds, and wonderful native plants. This is the best hiking tour that I have been on by far. I will definitely go out with north Shore Eco Tours again, for their Huakai Nui Hike! Mahalo Keola & Holly!

North Shore Hiking Tours from Haleiwa with Expert Local Guide & Lunch

This is the Way to See the North Shore!

Reviewed by: MeSoHappy

I learned a lot about the history of the North Shore on this tour and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. Our guides Keola and Holly were knowledgeable in Hawaiian history and culture. They have exclusive access to this trail and I highly recommend going on this tour as you will not get the chance to see the North Shore like this with anyone else. It was a real treat for me. I appreciated that Keola asked for permission to enter the hiking trail in a traditional way.The hike itself was wonderful. We saw a lovely lehua blossom on the trail! The area is home to a number of rare native trees that I will leave to you to figure the name of. This hike is not for people who are out of shape. You will get a workout on the hike! If you appreciate learning about Hawaiian culture with legitimate information shared, the natural beauty of the North Shore, and to spend a day of your vacation in nature, this hike is for you. Way better than a luau!
