Four-wheel drive, nature, and adventure! 四駆と自然とアドベンチャー!

Reviewed by: Frise

This was the best vehicle experience I've had in Hawaii!
First of all, driving the 4WD was really fun!
There were various types of terrain, and we drove on slippery surfaces and off-road paths, which is quite an experience that you can't easily have in Japan!
Moreover, the stunning nature and the lively narration by our guide Kioki (I think his American name was Johnny) made the history of Hawaii come alive, and his precise driving support truly enhanced the experience!
Having lived in America for about 10 years, I didn't have any language barriers, but if you don't understand English, you might miss out on about 30% of the fun. Still, I think it's a tour worth participating in!
Also, be prepared to get covered in mud and dust! (laughs)

今までのハワイの乗り物体験で最高でした!
まずは、四駆のDriveは本当に面白い!
色々な路面があり、スリッピーな路面や道なき道も走って、なかなか日本ではできない体験!
そして、豪快な自然となんといっても案内人のキオキ(アメリカ名ジョニーだったかな)さんの軽快な語りでハワイの歴史や的確なドライビングのサポートで本当に楽しまさせていただきました!
 私はアメリカにも10年ほど住んでいたので、言葉の面で不便はありませんが、もし 英語がわからないと楽しさは30%減かもしれませんがそれでも参加すべきツアーだと思いました!
 あと泥水や土ほこりをしっかりかぶりますので覚悟しておいてください(笑)

Horseback riding experience by the seaside! 海辺で乗馬体験!

Reviewed by: くっきー

I signed up for a horseback riding experience.

The horses were adorable, the scenery was beautiful, and it was so much fun!!

The horses were very smart and gentle, so I felt no anxiety while riding.

I was told their names, so I tried calling them out a lot ^_^

We took photos with the ocean in the background, which became great memories.

Also, the driver who accompanied us on the tour shared a lot of knowledge about Hawaii while we were in the car, which was really educational.

He talked about the Hawaiian language, Hawaiian plants, recent tourism trends in Hawaii, and the labor shortage, among other things. It was interesting since I don't often have the opportunity to learn about these topics.

For lunch, I wanted to go to Giovanni's for garlic shrimp, but I was taken to a different restaurant. I was a bit disappointed because I wanted to try Giovanni's. Since the horseback riding took a bit longer, we had less time to eat and had to rush.

I think we only had about 30 minutes to explore Haleiwa Town.

However, I was very satisfied with the day because the horseback riding was so enjoyable.

乗馬体験がしたくて申し込みました。

馬が可愛くて、景色も良くて、とーっても楽しかったです!!

馬はとても賢くおとなしく、
乗っていても不安はなかったです。

名前を教えてもらったので、たくさん呼びかけてみました^_^

海を背景に写真も撮ってくれていい思い出となりました。

またツアーについてくれたドライバーさんが、
車の中でハワイの知識を沢山教えてくれてすごく勉強になりました。

ハワイ語についてや、ハワイの植物、最近のハワイ観光事情や、人手不足のことなど、、
なかなか知る機会がないので面白かったです。

お昼に食べたガーリックシュリンプはジョバンニに行きたかったのですが違うお店に連れてってもらいました。ジョバンニを食べてみたかったのでちょっと残念。乗馬も少し時間がおしたせいか、食べる時間が少なく大急ぎで食べました。

ハレイワタウン散策も30分くらいしかなかったと思います。

ただ乗馬がとても楽しかったので満足な1日でした。

All-Inclusive Oahu Island Tour with Lunch & Waimea Valley Waterfall Nature Walk

Amazing tour

Reviewed by: Deborah Tonge

We booked this tour for the day before we left for home .
The trip and the wealth of knowledge Brandon imparted was so good we really did wish we had booked it at the very start of our trip so we could take advantage of all the tips and suggestions he made to maximise our experience whilst visiting the island .
Every stop we made added to our fabulous experience of the island . My only wish having now taken the tour was to have the bus stop on the north shore for 15 mins maybe to fully experience the fabulous waves we only saw from the bus window ..
Brandon was a wealth of knowledge and kept the bus engaged at all times .

Horseback riding in Hawaii after several years. 何年かぶりのハワイ乗馬

Reviewed by: このり

Sightseeing
I was using Uber to get around, but I decided to join a tour for sightseeing in Haleiwa and horseback riding. It turned out to be a great decision. Our guide was Japanese, providing attentive guidance and care that really hit the mark. Thank you, Arai! I wanted to try garlic shrimp in Haleiwa, and I was introduced to a restaurant. It was quite crowded, but thanks to the advance reservation and efficient service, we had plenty of time for sightseeing in Haleiwa. I got a cute Snoopy T-shirt for my grandchild. I do wish I had done a bit more research on Haleiwa beforehand.

Horseback Riding
The horses were very smart. I felt completely at ease; they were so intelligent that I think even kindergarteners could ride them. One downside was the explanation of how to handle the horses for those having lunch. Since the horses are smart, you just need to ride them, but the explanation wasn’t tailored for an elderly lady who didn’t understand English. It was a bit fast-paced! Thanks to our guide Arai, even though I didn’t understand English, I was able to grasp the meaning. It was a local approach of "just get on and get used to it." It wasn’t unpleasant at all, but it did have an American feel to it.

I had a wonderful day. Thank you!

観光
Uberを使いながらの移動をしていましたが、さすがに
ハレイワ観光と乗馬はツアーにしようと考えました。
結果、大正解。
日本人のガイドさんなので、痒いところに手が届くようなガイドと心遣い。
さすがです。アライさん、ありがとう!
ハレイワでガーリックシュリンプを食べたくて、お店を紹介してもらいました。
さすがに大混雑なのですが、前もっての予約と手際良さで、ハレイワの観光時間が十分に取れました。
可愛いスヌーピーのTシャツを孫にゲット。
もう少し、自分でハレイワの下調べをしておけば良かったとは思います。

乗馬
賢い馬さん。なんの心配も入りません。幼稚園児でも乗馬できるのではないかと思うくらいの賢い馬でした。
一つ残念なのは、ランチの方々の馬の扱い方の説明。馬が賢いので、ただ、乗馬してれば、いいのですが、英語がわからないおばさんに対する説明ではありませんでした。早口でした!
そこもガイドのアライさんのおかげで、英語わからずですが、意味が理解できました。「乗って慣れろ」方式の現地の方でした。
決して不快ではないのですが、アメリカン的な感じです。

楽しい1日を過ごせました。
ありがとうございました!

オアフ島1日観光ツアー ドール・パイナップル農園工場見学&ハレイワタウン自由散策 !日本語ガイドプランあり<パイナップルのお土産付き>

I had a great time even though I'm not good at English. 英語が苦手でも十分楽しめました.

Reviewed by: ぷー

The Dole farm and factory were a lot of fun. The ocean was beautiful as well. For lunch, a sandwich lunch box was provided. No Japanese guidebook was handed out. However, at the Dole plantation, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese and explained important parts in Japanese (it might have been a coincidence). Additionally, the guide could speak some Japanese, so there were times when they communicated using Japanese words. During the transfers, the guide explained various things about Hawaii in English. Unfortunately, I couldn't understand most of the explanations, but I still enjoyed each of the places we visited.

ドールの農場も工場もとても楽しかったです.海もきれいでした.お昼はサンドイッチのランチBOXが配布されました.
日本語の案内書は渡されませんでした.しかし,(偶然かもしれませんが)ドール農園では,日本語を話せるスタッフの方が同行してくださり,重要な部分を日本語で説明してくださいました.また,ガイドさんも多少日本語が話せる方でしたので,日本語の単語でコミュニケーションを取ってくださることもありました.
移動中はガイドさんが,英語でハワイの様々なことを説明してくださいます.
残念ながら,私はその解説の大半を理解することができませんでしたが,それでもそれぞれの訪問地を十分楽しむことができました.

Horseback riding experience 乗馬体験

Reviewed by: mayumayu

The plan included a visit to the Dole Plantation, horseback riding, and sightseeing in Haleiwa. I thought the guide would just pick us up right near our hotel and take us by car, but instead, they shared a lot of history and local stories about Hawaii that we wouldn't have known otherwise. Honestly, it was worth the participation fee just for that.

At Dole, we had a short 30-minute visit, but I was able to shop and found unique items that aren't sold in Japan, which really excited me. The main horse experience was truly amazing. The waves at the North Shore looked like a painting. I was moved to think that such a beautiful place exists in this world.

Unfortunately, the horseback riding experience ran over time, so our sightseeing in Haleiwa was quite short, which was disappointing. However, I was able to enjoy delicious gelato and leisurely explore some cute shops, which was nice. I would love to take my time to explore more next time.

I had assumed that garlic shrimp was included in the course, so I was a bit disappointed to find out it was a separate course, but it was still so much fun that I would definitely do it again.

It was a day filled with awe in a world where there is still so much I don't know. Thank you, guide!

Doleプランテーション、乗馬、ハレイワ観光のプランでした。
泊まってるホテルのすぐ近くまでガイドさんが迎えに来てくれてそのまま車で送迎するのだけかと思いきや、この車に乗らないと知り得ることのできないハワイの歴史や現地の話をたくさん聞かせてくれました。もぉ、ここまでで参加費の価値あり。
Doleでは30分と言う短い時間でしたが買い物もでき、日本では売ってない雑貨と出会いテンション上がりました。
メインのお馬さんは本当に最高でした。
ノースショアの波は絵に描いたよう。この世にこんな美しい場所があるなんて…と感動でした。
乗馬体験がおしてしまったのもあったのでハレイワ観光の時間がとても短く残念でしたが、美味しいジェラート頂きながらゆっくり出来たし、かわいい雑貨店巡りもできてよかった。
次はゆっくり見てみたい。

ガーリックシュリンプがコースの中に含まれていると思い込んでいたので別コースだと知ってちょっとがっかりだだたけど、全然!!!それ以上に楽しかったからまたの機会に。


まだまだ自分の知らないことがたくさんある世界にただただ感動の1日でした。

With a fun Japanese guide. 楽しい日本語ガイドさんと一緒に

Reviewed by: ma

I found this tour when I was thinking about going to Haleiwa to eat garlic shrimp. I had also wanted to try horseback riding for a while, and riding by the beach sounded wonderful, so I signed up.

Kaz, our Japanese guide, cheerfully talked to us during the drive and introduced the scenery we saw from the car window. The other members of the tour were all nice people, and when they heard it was our honeymoon, they applauded. The horse I rode was a bit mischievous and kept moving forward, which was scary at first, but I got used to it and had a great time. There were two instructors who closely watched over us, which made me feel safe. They also took a lot of pictures along the way!

After returning to Haleiwa, we went to the garlic shrimp food truck recommended by Kaz. Thanks to him making a phone call, we were able to enjoy delicious garlic shrimp without having to wait. This gave us extra time to visit Matsumoto Shave Ice and enjoy some shops. On the way back, instead of just dropping us off at the meeting point, they took us close to our hotel. It became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much!

ハレイワに行ってガーリックシュリンプを食べたいなぁと思っていた時に見つけたこちらのツアー。乗馬もしてみたいなと以前から思っており、海辺で乗馬なんて素敵!と思い申し込みました。
日本語ガイドのカズさんは行きの車内で明るくお話して下さり、車窓からの景色の紹介をしてくださいました。ツアーに参加されたメンバーの方も良い方ばかりで、ハネムーンというと拍手して下さいました。乗馬はやんちゃなお馬さんだったのか前へ前へと進んで最初は怖かったのですが、途中から慣れて楽しく過ごせました。インストラクターの方も2人ついてきちんとみて下さるので安心でした。途中写真も沢山撮ってくださいました!ハレイワに戻ってからはカズさんお勧めのガーリックシュリンプのフードトラックへ。電話をかけて下さっていたおかげで美味しいガーリックシュリンプを待たずに食べられました。そのおかげで時間も余裕ができ、マツモトシェイブアイスにも行け、雑貨屋さんなども楽しめました。帰りは集合場所でなく、ホテルの近くまでそれぞれ送ってくださいました。素敵な思い出となりました。ありがとうございました!

It was very pleasant. とても気持ちよかったです

Reviewed by: anela

The driver explained how to ride in Japanese during the car ride to the horseback riding location. After arriving, we were able to ride the horses one by one, and another guide accompanied us from the side and behind during the walk, helping us when we stopped. It was my first time riding a horse, and the weather was nice, with the sea looking very beautiful, which was incredibly soothing. However, my horse didn't seem to get along well with me, as it stopped and wouldn't move several times, causing the people behind me to wait quite a bit. Overall, I had a very valuable experience this time, which became a great memory.

乗馬迄の車の中で運転手さんが日本語で乗り方を説明してくれました。到着後は順番に馬に乗ることが出来、散歩途中も横や後ろから別のガイドさんが着いてきてくれて立ち止まったりした時に誘導もしてくれました。初めての乗馬でしたが、お天気も良く海もとても綺麗で凄く癒されました。ただ馬との相性があまり良くなかったのか、何度も立ち止まり動かなくなってしまう子だったので後ろの人を凄い待たせてしまう事も多かったです。今回とても貴重な経験が出来たので良い思い出となりました。

Relaxed horseback riding ゆったり乗馬

The pickup location for the bus on the way there was hard to find. (There were many people from other tours, and we couldn't tell what our bus looked like.)
As for the horseback riding, we could hear the sound of the waves and got splashed by the sea spray, and the wind felt pleasant. The horse was calm and occasionally stopped to graze, which was enjoyable as well. Riding along the coast, something we can't do in Japan, was a valuable experience.
In Haleiwa Town, we only had time for lunch, and it would have been nice to have a little more time to relax.

行きのバスのピックアップ場所がわかりづらかった。(他のツアーの人たちも多く、自分たちのバスがどのような物かもわからなかった)
乗馬については波の音が聞こえ、波飛沫がかかるくらいで、風が心地よかったです。馬もおとなしく時々草を食んで道草しましたが、それも楽しかった。日本では出来ない海岸沿いの乗馬は貴重な体験でした。

The staff were kind, and it was the most fun! スタッフの方々が優しく、最高に楽しかった!

Reviewed by: タカシ

There was no guide who could speak Japanese, and basic English communication skills were necessary, but even though I couldn't speak any English at all, they kindly explained things while using a language translation app on their phone and actively engaged in communication, which made it really enjoyable for me. That said, it's definitely true that being able to speak English would enhance the experience even more.

I recommend participating in clothes that you wouldn't mind throwing away. The red dirt stains won't come out even after washing. I participated in a white shirt that I planned to discard, and after the event, it turned into a reddish-brown shirt. (It also got soaked in the rain...)

The tour runs on really bumpy roads from a certain point, so it's better for people with neck or back issues to skip it. (I think there was something in the consent form before participation that mentioned self-responsibility.)

I'm not sure if it was because the weather was rainy when we participated, but the goggles provided had gaps where water could get in, and they became hard to see through due to dirt, while we were going at quite a speed (about 20 km/h), making it difficult to keep up. Especially for those with contact lenses, it's hard to keep your eyes open. (I was one of them.)

There are no shower rooms, just a place to wash your face and hands, and if you want to take a shower, you'll need to go to a nearby beach.

日本語を話せるガイドがおらず、基本的な英語でのコミュニケーション能力が必要とありましたが、全く英語が出来ない自分にも嫌な顔せず、携帯で言語変換しながら優しく説明してくれたり、コミュニケーションも積極的にとってくれて盛り上げてもらい、すごく楽しめました。
とはいえ、やはり英語はできるほうが更に楽しめることは間違いないです。

服装は本当に捨ててもいい服で参加する事をお勧めします。赤土での汚れは洗濯しても取れません。
自分は捨てる予定の白シャツで参加し、参加後には赤茶色のシャツになってました。(雨が降って染み込んだのもありますが…)

ツアーは途中から本当に凸凹の道を走るので、首や腰の悪い人はやめた方がいいです。(参加前の承諾書にも自己責任でみたいなのが書いてあったと思います。)

自分達が参加した時の天気が雨だったからなのかわかりませんが、貸してもらえるゴーグルだと隙間から入ってきたり、ゴーグルが汚れで見え辛くなっているのに、結構なスピード(約20Km/h)で走るのでついて行くのが大変でした。
特にコンタクトの方は目が開けてられないです。(自分がそうでした)

シャワールームはなく、顔や手を洗うぐらいの場所があるだけで、シャワーを浴びたければ近くのビーチまで行く必要があります。

ノースショア(ハレイワ)観光 ハレイワタウンで3時間の自由散策+ドールプランテーション!海辺の絶景を楽しめる乗馬付き(70分)プランあり<1日/送迎付き>

I might not have enough time. 時間が足りないかも

Reviewed by: 親子でスキューバ

The driver was very friendly and shared interesting stories, making the journey enjoyable. The Dole plantation was less lively than when I visited before, and the pineapple ice cannot be purchased with a card, so cash is necessary. The driver explained the horseback riding in Japanese beforehand, which made me feel at ease. A staff member will take photos along the way, so be sure to bring your smartphone. There is only one riding club, and it's not very clean, so I recommend bringing hand towels or similar items. The stroll around Haleiwa goes by quickly, so it might be better to ask the driver to place a lunch order in advance. It gets crowded when eating and lining up for shave ice, so Aoki might be a better choice. I wish I had a bit more time.

ドライバーの方はとてもゆかいで為になる話をして下さり、道中は楽しかったです。
ドールは以前来た時とはにぎわいがなく、パインアイスはカード使えず、現金持参が必要です。
乗馬は先にドライバーさんが日本語で説明してくださったので、安心して乗ることができました。途中写真を係の方が撮ってくれるので、スマホ持参を。
乗馬クラブにはは一つしかなく、綺麗とは言えないので、お手拭き等持参することをお勧めします。
ハレイワ散策はあっという間なので、ランチは予約注文ドライバーさんに頼む方がいいかもです。食べて、シェイブアイス並ぶのに混むので、青木の方がいいかもしれません。時間もう少しあったら、良かったと。

From the beginning to the end you truly feel like you are part of the family. The host has such a love for Hawaiian history and the desire to preserve every ounce of it. What a beautiful display of culture. The meal was more then anyone could hope for. If time would have permitted we definitely would have attended again.

Amazing

Reviewed by: Courtney

Hands down would do again! The luau was amazing, and everyone was so kind and worked so hard to put on an amazing show. We also got to swim in the falls which was amazing. Definitely recommend! If you're reading this, just book it. You won't regret it. It was also kid friendly. I took my 1 year old and everyone loved
him and took extra effort to involve him in the cultural activities.

Aloha Courtney and mahalo for leaving us this review and for sharing a very cute pic of your kid! Looks like she had fun husking the coconut. We're glad that you guys enjoyed your time at the luau. Mahalo for the recommendation, we truly appreciate it! Looking forward to seeing you again soon. Mahalo nui loa!

It's okay even if it's your first time, the scenery is amazing. 初めてでも大丈夫、景色も最高です

Reviewed by: ルークちゃん

We participated in a tour as a couple aged 68 and 65. It was our first experience with horseback riding, but there was one assistant for every four people, so it was easy to just follow along without any issues.

Once we got from the ranch to the coast, we were able to see the beautiful blue sea from a high vantage point. While enjoying the view of the ocean, we had a fun time leisurely riding the horses. The horses were accustomed to carrying people, so we just had to maintain our balance. We only needed to slightly change direction or move the reins when stopping. The 70 minutes flew by.

After horseback riding, we went to Haleiwa and tried the garlic shrimp and fries combo from a food truck recommended by our driver, Kazu. It was truly wonderful.

68歳と65歳の夫婦でツアーに参加しました。乗馬は全くの初体験でしたが、4名に1名のアシスタントがいて、ただついて行くだけでしたので問題ありませんでした。
牧場から海岸に出ると、真っ青なきれいな海を高い位置から見ることができました。海を見ながら、馬に任せて楽しく散策できました。
人を乗せるのに慣れた馬のため、ただバランスをとって乗っているだけでした。ほんの少しだけ方向を変えたり、止まるときに手綱を動かすだけですみました。70分はあっという間でした。
乗馬の後でハレイワにいき、ドライバーの一(かず)さんおすすめ、テレビでも紹介されたというキッチンカーでガーリックシュリンプとフライのコンボを食べました。本当によかったです。
