North Shore
My husband and I had never been ziplining before, but we were really excited to try this out. The guides are SO awesome! They explain everything before you do it and they make you laugh along the way. They have "challenges" throughout the tour and they are such a blast! At the end of the tour they teach you how to do some tricks, which was SO cool! My husband Spiderman'ed and I hung upside down, spread eagle lol.
Thank you guys for such an incredible trip! We bought shirts and some stickers that are currently hanging on our fridge :)
WOW!!! What an INCREDIBLE experience!!!!!
My husband and I are both scared of sharks and he is very claustrophobic. We were worried how he would do in the cage. This was our FAVORITE part of Hawaii! As soon as you get to the spot, you immediately see sharks. They knew what we were doing there and they remember that the guides feed them, so they were all over the boat. Such a gnarly thing to see fins coming up right next to the boat!
There were eight of us on the boat and we were able to split into two groups so we could all have space and time inside the cage. It was SO COOL!! There were 8-12 Galapagos sharks swimming right next to us. They come so close to the cage, you could easily reach out and touch them, but do NOT do that lol.
We could not believe how much we loved this adventure. We recommend to everyone!!
I couldn't imagine it being any more amazing. The tour guides were all really professional and a safety diver made sure we didn't accidentally swim into the boat. We got very good diving glasses as well. The sharks themselves were really calm and didn't show any aggression at all and none of us got afraid once they did show up. If i had to describe it, I'd say it feels a bit like standing in front of a cow, a horse, or a dolphin. You know they are multiple times as big as you and could easily kill you, but there is no danger as they simply don't behave like that. And the same goes for the sharks.
Had a wonderful time w uncle Kevin!! He showed us a lot of places and haves the background story! Very knowledgeable and happy to share his experience and love for his Hawaiian culture.
We had a wonderful time and even saw Hammerhead sharks!
My husband and i had an amazing experience. Our group guides (Zeke, Ellie, Emma) are the best, very supportive and encouraging and fun. Going through the whole course was a challenge to conquer our different levels of fear and strength. I am especially proud of my husband who had been very hesitant to do the activity but finished it with flying colors more than me..ha ha... If given the chance to come back, we will definitely do it again. Again, thank you so much to our guides who kept us safe and secured the whole time. Fun fun fun .....
This tour was an absolute blast. Luckily, my girlfriend and I came to Hawaii the week after the state opened up following the Covid-19 restrictions, so there weren't many people on the island. Likewise, the tour only ended up being the two of us. Our tour guide (and owner of the tour company), Steve, was amazing. He led us through the waters and taught us both how to kayak. He even went out of his way and taught us how to paddleboard too! Also, he was very knowledgeable about Hawaii and the surrounding waters. Steve provided us with a lot of advice on what we should do/stay/eat during our stay. And to make it even better, we saw plenty of sea turtles and coral beneath our glass bottom kayak! On top of all this, Steve stayed with us a little while longer on the water to answer our questions and to talk more about Hawaii. All in all, the tour went above and beyond our expectations. The next time we go back to Hawaii, we will definitely book another tour with this company!
Last year, during our honeymoon trip to Hawaii, we participated in this tour. With guidance from a Japanese university student studying abroad, we explored the vast grounds and engaged in activities, allowing us to directly experience Polynesian culture. My husband was also able to join a dance event along the way, and it was truly enjoyable.
昨年新婚旅行でハワイに行った際にこちらのツアーに参加しました。
留学中の日本人大学生ガイドさんによるご案内で広大な園内を散策しながらアクティビティーに参加し直にポリネシア文化に触れる事が出来ました。
旦那も途中でダンスイベントに参加することが出来て本当に楽しかった。

First time horseback riding and I can honestly say we had a wonderful experience. They made sure to have a safety demo in the beginning prior to jumping on to be sure everyone was safe and comfortable enough to ride. Nice peaceful scenery and the breeze off of the ocean made the horseback riding extremely relaxing. Towards the end of the tour, we also stopped to take some pics on the beach with the horses!! Our tour guide Becca was the BEST! Definitely will go back and make sure to request her as our tour guide again.
Ten of us participated, ranging from my 5-year-old grandchild to 60 years old.
In Japan, where safety is a top priority, my 5-year-old grandchild was probably not allowed to ride a horse alone, but here, they were able to ride by themselves and were very satisfied!
We enjoyed horseback riding at our own levels, just relaxing as a family on the ranch.
Of course, communication was a challenge since Japanese was not spoken, but it was a refreshing experience for the grandchildren, which was great.
5歳の孫から60歳までの10人で参加しました
安全第一の日本ではまず乗馬させてもらえないであろう
5歳の孫も1人で馬に乗り大満足！
のんびり家族だけで牧場内をそれぞれのレベルで
乗馬を楽しむ事が出来ました
ただ、当然ですが日本語は通じませんでしたが
孫たちにとっては新鮮な体験でよっかたです

They picked us up by car in Waikiki and on the way to Haleiwa, we stopped by Dole, where we had the recommended garlic shrimp for lunch. After that, it was finally time for horseback riding! We experienced riding through the forest and along the coast from the golf course. I think it lasted about an hour, which was just right. On the way back, we also stopped at a coffee shop for a restroom break, and I was very satisfied. I would like to participate again.
ワイキキまで車で迎えに来てくれて、ハレイワまで行く途中に、ドールへ立ち寄り、ランチはお勧めのガーリックシュリンプを食べ、そのあと
いよいよ乗馬！ゴルフ場から森林を通り、海沿いを乗馬体験しました。1時間ぐらいだと思いますがちょうど良かったです。帰りも途中でコーヒーショップへ立ち寄りトイレ休憩があり、とても満足出来ました。また参加したいと思います。

Everything was great. Tour guides were so cute and had so much knowledge. Each island was very entertaining. Even though it rained heavily most of the day it didn't dampen the experience. The ending pageant was fabulous. We were a little disappointed in the luau but still very entertaining. Definitely something we would do again. Waited 45 married years to get to Hawaii and see this event.
I had never experienced seasickness before, but I ended up going home without doing anything due to it. While the waves in Japan might not start, in Hawaii, they usually do. Please be careful. The round-trip taxi fare and the shark adventure cost about $380. I went, got seasick, couldn't see any sharks, and came back, feeling like I just threw away $380. Since you won't get your money back, everyone, please be very careful about the weather. Also, if you can't understand English listening to some extent, you won't know what the staff on the boat are saying.
船酔いした事なかったですが、船酔いして何もしないまま帰りました。
日本では開始しないような波でもハワイは普通に開始します。気おつけてください。往復のタクシー代とシャークアドベンチャー代で380ドルぐらいかかりました。
行って、船酔いして、サメも見れず、帰って、380ドルを捨てたようなものでした。
お金も返って来ないので、みなさん、天候には充分に気をつけてください。
あと、ある程度英語のリスニングが出来ないと、船のアテンドの人が何言ってるかわかりません。

This glass bottom kayak tour was an amazing experience. Our guide, JC was friendly, knowledgeable and went out of his way to make our experience a unique one! I would highly recommend taking a tour with these folks- you will not regret it!
We are so pleased you enjoy your tour with us. We hope you tell all your friends that our visiting Hawaii in the future to come make wonderful memories with us.

During my previous horseback riding experience in Australia, I was able to feel the horses' light gallops, but this time it was only a slow walk, which was a bit disappointing. However, riding while looking at the ocean was pleasant with the nice breeze.
以前オーストラリアで乗馬した際は、
馬の軽めのダッシュ等も体感できましたが今回のものではパカラパカラ程度の馬の徒歩しかなくものたりませんでした。
しかし海を見ながらの乗馬は風が気持ち良かったです。

The guide shared a lot of information about Hawaii during the drive, which was very educational! I learned many things I didn't know before, and I love Hawaii even more now. We also stopped at a macadamia nut farm, which wasn't part of the original plan, and I was able to buy delicious macadamia nuts! The horses were cute, and the scenery was great—just perfect! I've heard that there is less traffic on Sundays, so I recommend going then!
ガイドさんに車内でハワイの色々な情報を話して頂き、とても勉強になりました！
今まで知らなかった事を沢山知れて更にハワイが好きになりました^_^
帰りに予定にはなかったマカダミアナッツファームに寄って頂いて美味しいマカダミアナッツも買えました！
馬も可愛かったし景色も良くて最高！
日曜は渋滞が少ないらしいので日曜に行くのオススメです^_^

I upgraded to the ambassador package and this allowed More time to check out the exciting performances. Chesser made our tour fun and interesting. Had a great overall experience visiting for the first time. Really enjoyed the HA theatrical performance with the amazing fire dancers.
At Kualoa, you can also do ziplining, and I was torn between options, but I decided to book this one because it has a longer distance.
There were a total of seven zip lines, and there were various activities in between, which made it a lot of fun.
None of the instructors spoke Japanese, but I still had a great time.
If you have the financial means, I think bringing a GoPro or something similar would allow you to capture plenty of memorable photos.
クアロアでもジップラインができるので、悩みましたが、こちらの方が距離が長いので、こっちを予約しました。
合計７本のジップラインでしたが、途中にいろいろなアクティビティも挟んであり、とても楽しかったです。
インストラクターは誰も日本語を話せなかったのですが、十分楽しめました。
金銭的に余裕のある方は、GO PROなど持っていかれた方が思い出の写真をいっぱい残せるかと思います。

Polynesian center was amazing. Had a private group tour which took us through the best activities of a few islands. Was not able to see all of the islands like the itinerary stated there just want time. Luau and fire show was included. Also with this package the Polynesian center will give you an additional 3 day pass to
Come back and see anything you missed. Highly recommend!
It felt like a tour with sightseeing in Haleiwa.
I had an early lunch of garlic shrimp in Haleiwa.
I didn't quite understand the guide's explanations at that time.
Even when I asked questions or made requests, the guide would say, "I told you that earlier!"
All the tour participants felt the same way.
The guide's inner voice came out loud.
The horseback riding by the beach was very enjoyable.
ハレイワ観光付きという感じでした。
ハレイワで早めの昼食ガ－リックシュリンプ。この時のガイドの説明よく分からない。
質問やお願いをするも、「だからさっき言ったでしょ‼」
ツア－参加者みな同じ気持ちになってしまいます。
心の声が口から出るガイドでした。
海辺乗馬はとても楽しめました。

It was the most fun activity I've experienced in Hawaii so far! (Personally) There was one staff member who spoke Japanese and was very friendly. The rest of the staff primarily spoke English, and all explanations were in English, but they communicated well with gestures, so it was not a problem at all! There were lockers and transportation available, which was great! There is a set pickup time, but there was a slight delay (typical overseas timing), but they do come to pick you up, so it's all good! If you're worried, it might be a good idea to call.
今までハワイで経験したアクティビティの中で一番楽しかったです！（個人的に）
日本語を話してくれるスタッフさんは1人いてくれてとてもフレンドリーな方でした^_^それ以外の方は基本英語だけで、説明等も全て英語ですがジェスチャー等で教えてくれたりと全く問題ないです！ロッカーや送迎もあり良かったです！お迎え時間は設定されていますが多少遅れもありました（海外タイムですね）けどちゃんと迎えに来てくれるので大丈夫です！心配だったら電話すると良いかもです^_^

When I inquired during the application process, I was told there would be no Japanese staff on-site, which made me anxious. However, there were Japanese versions of the consent forms available. The driver for the transfer was kind, and although the local staff explained things in English, I managed to get by (laughs). I thought I could just mimic the other participants for how to ride, and I ended up skiing last every time. It became a wonderful memory.
申し込み時に聞いた際、現地には日本語スタッフがいない。。との事で 不安でしたが、同意書等は日本語版の用意がありました。送迎のドライバーさんも優しい方でしたし、現地スタッフの説明は英語でしたが、なんとかなりました(笑)乗り方等は他の参加者の真似をすれば良いと思い、毎回最後に滑りました。良い思い出になりました。

Riding while watching the waves and surfers was really enjoyable. It was better than I expected. The horse wanted to eat grass all the time, which was a bit of a hassle, but I wished I could ride for a longer time.
海の波、サーファーを見ながらの乗馬は気持ち良かった。思った以上に良かった。

We visited with four adults, all over 20 years old. Although it was a morning course, horseback riding while overlooking the beautiful coastline of North Shore was absolutely fantastic. Our group consisted only of our family of four, but there were two support staff members, and it was no problem even for those who were mostly beginners. The riding time and course distance were just right, without any excess or deficiency. However, the restrooms are basic, so it's advisable to take care of that beforehand.
家族4人といっても全員20歳以上の大人4人で訪れました。午前中のコースでしたが、ノースショワの美しい海岸を眺めながらの乗馬は最高に良かったです。私達の回は私達の家族4人だけでしたが、2人のサポートの方が入っており、ほぼ全員初心者でも問題無かったです。乗馬時間やコースの距離も過不足なく丁度良い感じでした。ただ、トイレ等は簡易式のものなので事前に済ませておいた方が無難です。

What an experience! This tour is definitely worth it. The boat only takes out a max of 6 people which allows for more cage time and less crowds. The cage was plenty big for everyone to see and not feel cramped. We had sharks around us the entire time we were in the water and the water was so clear it was quite the experience. The crew was awesome and very knowledgeable about not only sharks but whales as well. We were able to stop on our way back into harbor and watch the whales for a little bit. Overall such a great experience, highly recommend!
Uncle Kevin was truely an amazing bus driver/tour guide! Made the day feel as though you were a local :). Amazing commentary and local facts. A whole range of activities to choose from and by far was the best taking a surf lesson on the north shore!
Aloha Kate, yes we are truly blessed to have uncle Kevin as part of our ohana! Hope to see you again on the Original North shore tour!
Sarah was a great guide. Patient with us and friendly!! Scenery is spectacular. Highly recommend.
There was a Japanese guide, and we were able to tour the facilities smoothly. However, there is something disappointing. We were made to have lunch at 1 PM, and dinner was at 4 PM. We were not informed about this in advance...
日本人の案内人がいて、スムーズに施設を見学することができました。
しかし、残念な事があります。13時に昼食を取らされて、夕食は16時にされてしまいました。そんなことは、事前に知らせていませんでしたが…

I was excited to go on this event. My excitement was well rewarded. On the way out we got a bonus of seeing a whole group of humpback whales breaching high in the air!!! At this point I felt my money was already a good investment!
The sharks did not disappoint either!! At least 20 of them circled our boat and cage while we got great views! Captain Caleo is a super guy and excellent at steering this tour perfectly
I would recommend this tour to all my friends!
Oh and we saw dolphins on the way back!!
Has the time of my life, it was a once in a lifetime experience. If I ever had the chance to do it again I wouldn’t hesitate. Guides were great and the shark experience even better. Oh yeah and we saw whales!
