North Shore
During our stay in Hawaii, we booked this tour at my daughter's request. We found a zipline-only tour with pickup from Waikiki at Keana Farms. It seems there is also a reservation booth on the 1st floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center in Waikiki, but since I usually book with VELTRA, I felt secure making the reservation.
Perhaps it's still not well-known among Japanese travelers? The shuttle bus and at the site, we only encountered people from Europe, America, and Australia, and did not meet any Japanese guests. By the way, check-in and explanations are all in English, but the staff are very friendly, so even basic English is sufficient (laughs).
The travel time from Waikiki is about 1.3 hours one way, with a waiting time on-site (including gear preparation) of about 30 minutes, and the zipline experience with seven lines (the longest being about 1200 meters?) takes around three hours. The movement between ziplines is on foot, but there are enough features to enjoy. There are also two or three water stations, so all belongings, including water, can be stored for free at the counter before departure.
For clothing, a T-shirt and pants that can get dirty, along with athletic shoes or sneakers, are necessary. My daughter bought inexpensive items at H&M in Waikiki to prepare (sweat). Also, if you want to take photos with a camera or iPhone, a neck strap is needed.
The thrill of sliding down towards the ocean is amazing, and the scenery is something you absolutely cannot experience in Japan! I highly recommend it.
ハワイ滞在中に、娘のリクエストでこのツアーを申し込みました。
ワイキキから送迎付きでジップラインだけのツアーを探しケアナファームを見つけました。ワイキキのロイヤル・ハワイアン・センター1Fにも予約ブース?があるようですが、いつもお願いしているVELTRAさんも取り扱っていたので安心して予約できました。
まだ、日本の方々には知られていないのか?送迎バス、現地においても欧米豪の方ばかりで日本人の方とお会いすることはありませんでしたね。ちなみにチェックインや説明などは全て英語ですが、スタッフが非常に親切なのでカタコト程度の英語でも大丈夫でした(笑)
ワイキキからの移動片道:約1.3時間、現地待ち時間(装具の準備を含め):約30分、ジップライン7本(最長1200m?):約3時間、バギーでの移動は最初のみで10分程度でした。
ジップライン間の移動は徒歩ですが、それなりに仕掛けがあって楽しめます。また、給水ポイントが2、3か所ありましたので、水を含めた荷物は全て出発前に無料でカウンターが預かってくれます。服装は汚れても良いTシャツ・ズボンに運動靴かスニーカーが必要です。娘はワイキキのH&Mで安価なものを購入し準備してました(汗)。あと、カメラやiPhoneで撮影するなら首からのストラップが必要ですね。
海に向けて滑り下りる爽快感は最高です、また日本では絶対体験できない景観も素晴らしいですよ!!おすすめします。
This was a great experience, however we didn't have enough time to do everything. If we had gotten there right when it opened, it would have been better. The buffet was ok, but not great. The Breath of Life show was awesome and the best part of the whole experience.
I rode at Sweetheart for two days on July 11 and 12 (the canter course was an additional $10). It takes about two hours to get there from Ala Moana by The Bus. There were a lot of children, possibly because Hawaii's schools are on summer break. When we arrived, there was no one at the reception. After informing a wandering person that we had a reservation, a staff member came out, and we signed a waiver before preparing the horses. The four of us enjoy riding outside both domestically and internationally, so we came here intending to gallop. As expected, we were able to ride at speeds of 40 km or more. However, I think it's important to inform the guide about the speed you are comfortable with, as it can be dangerous if you haven't experienced this level of speed beforehand. The canter within the riding club is limited to about 20 km, which feels like shifting from third to fourth gear in a car. We had lunch on a hill overlooking the North Shore, but the lunch box in the horse's saddle pocket got all mixed up due to the up-and-down vibrations. On the second day, we decided not to bring lunch and ate after returning. Also, the stirrups are often too long for Japanese riders, so if they don't fit, it's important to adjust them (or switch to a child’s saddle if adjustments aren't possible) to avoid falling off during canter or gallop. I believe it's better to communicate, even in broken English, regarding speed and other matters, as accidents are the rider's responsibility. Compared to riding in Japan, the sense of freedom is completely different, making it an excellent ranch for those who want to ride fast. (The walking course is just for walking, and the canter course is optional.) It's a pity that the time for each course is predetermined, limiting the options available.
7/11,12の2日間スイートハート(キャンターコースはオプションで$10アップでした)で騎乗。The Busでアラモアナから2時間で行けます。ハワイの学校が夏休みに入ったのか子供たちがいっぱい。我々が着いても受付に誰もいません。うろうろしている人に「予約している」と告げるとスタッフが出てきて免責の書面に各人サインしてから馬の準備。我々4人は内外地で外乗で走ることを楽しんでいますので、ここでもギャロップで走るつもりで来ました。内容は予想通り40Kmかそれ以上のスピードで走ることが出来ました。ただし、事前にこの程度の速度を経験していないと危険ですので、ガイドさんにはどの程度で走るかを指示しておく必要があると思います。乗馬クラブのラチ内での駈足は20Km位までですので車で言うとギアが3速から4速に上がる感じです。途中ノースショアの景色を見下ろせる丘でランチですが、馬のゼッケンのポケットに入れてあったランチボックスの中が上下の振動でグチャグチャになっていました。2日目はランチを持って行かないで戻ってから食事にしました。また、鐙は日本人には長すぎることが多いので、自分に合わない場合は妥協しないで調節(調節出来ない場合は子供用の鞍に替えてもらう)しないとキャンター、ギャロップでは落馬につながります。速度の点も含めて片言ででも英語で意思疎通が出来た方が良いと思います。事故は自己責任ですので。日本での外乗と比べて解放感がまったく違い、速く走りたい方には絶好の牧場です。(歩くコースは歩くだけ、キャンターコースはオプションです)コースによって時間が決まっており選択の巾が少ないのが残念です。
I chose this place because they offered transportation. The pickup was at 7:45, so I arrived early at 7:30. As soon as I got to the pickup location, the shuttle van arrived and said, "Hurry up and get on!" I showed my voucher just in case, but I was glad I arrived early and was able to get on!
Next, after arriving at Keana Farm, when I showed my voucher at the reception counter, I was told there was a translation fee of $30. I thought, "Is this an additional charge?" and said NO, which made the staff look troubled. It turned out there was no additional fee, and when I showed my voucher at a different counter, I was checked in smoothly. At the reception, I was told, "After checking in on the iPad, please wait in the area with benches," so I used the restroom and left my luggage at the reception to wait. I waited for almost an hour. There was a monitor in the waiting area displaying my name and time. When the time approached, I would be fitted with the equipment. Since there was no announcement from the guide, I told a nearby guide, "I think I'm next," and a lovely guide responded in Japanese, saying, "I'm in charge of the Japanese guests." It was nice to have translation included in the plan. This guide also accompanied me during the zip line, which made me feel at ease. Since I was the only Japanese person there, I felt it was a luxury.
The zip line experience was very enjoyable. I would give it four stars. Sliding through the farm felt great, and I could see the ocean, mountains, and fields; it went by in no time. Although not fluent, the explanations in Japanese were very reassuring. I think anyone with enough stamina to walk up about three flights of stairs can enjoy it fully.
Basically, everything was in English from the transportation to the equipment fitting, and after the zip line, I was left on my own. The Japanese guide appeared when it was time to put on the equipment, and while we were saying how much fun we had at the end of the tour, they disappeared before I could even give a tip.
They took photos during the zip line, which you can purchase. I decided to buy the photos and paid on the spot. I was told that I would receive the data right away, but it didn't come. I thought it would be a problem if I had given the wrong email address when I purchased them, so I sent a message through the CLIMB Works website's contact form saying, "I bought the photos, but have they been sent?" However, I received no reply. Since I can't speak English, I thought calling would be futile, so I gave up. But a few days later, I received the photos! I was relieved! Initially, I would have given it one star, but I changed it to four stars.
送迎付きだったのでここを選びました。
まずピックアップが7:45だったのですが早めに行こうと7:30に到着しました。するとピックアップ場所到着してすぐ送迎のバンが来て「急いで乗って!」と。一応バウチャーを見せましたが、早く来て良かったよ!乗れて良かったよ!思いました。
次にケアナファーム到着後、受付カウンターでバウチャーを見せたらトランスレーション$30だと言われました。追加料金?と思いNOと言ったら困った顔をされました。やはり追加料金はなかったようで別のカウンターにバウチャーを見せたらすんなり受付されました。受付で「iPadでチェックインしたらベンチのあるところで待ってて」と言われ、トイレを済ませ荷物は受付に預けて待ちました。1時間弱くらい待ちました。待ってる場所にモニターがあり自分の名前と時間が表示されています。時間が近づいたら装備をつけてもらいます。ガイドさんから声かけは無かったので「私は次だと思う」と近くにいたガイドさんに言うと、別の可愛らしいガイドさんが「日本人担当です」と日本語で声をかけてくれました。プランに翻訳が込みなんですね。このガイドさんがジップラインも一緒にまわってくれたので安心でした。日本人は私だけだったので贅沢だなと思いました。
その後のジップラインはとても楽しかったです。星も☆☆☆☆です。農園の中を滑るのはとても気持ちが良く、海も山も畑も見えて、あっという間でした。流暢ではないですが日本語で説明してくれるのはとても安心でした。階段で歩いて3階くらいまで上れる体力があれば十分楽しめると思います。
基本すべて英語で送迎〜装備装着とジップライン終了後はほったらかしです。日本語ガイドさんは装備をつけてくれる時に現れてツアーが終わって楽しかった!とか言っている間にチップを渡す間もなくいなくなっていました。
ジップライン中に写真を撮ってくれて、その写真を購入できます。
写真購入を決め、その場で支払いました。データで貰えるという事で、すぐに送ると言われたのですが、送られて来ず、購入の際に伝えたメールアドレスを間違えていたら困ると思いCLIMB Worksのホームページのお問い合わせから「写真を買ったんだけど、送ってくれましたか?」とメッセージしましたが何の返信もありませんでした。わたしは英語が話せないので電話してもきっと会話にならないと思い諦めていましたが、その数日後に写真を送ってもらえました。良かったです!はじめは☆1でしたが☆4に変えました。
You will be participating among complete American tourists. If you don't have a certain level of English proficiency, you might feel nervous. You can see the sharks clearly.

Had a great time. People are warm and make it easy to enjoy the excursion. Beautiful scene. Unforgettable experience. Recommend very highly.
My kids said this was the experience of a lifetime! Water was a little rough so if you suffer from sea sickness I would recommend medication but the overall experience was worth every minute. We did some sort of excursion almost every day and my family loved this!!
I finally experienced ziplining!
We went by rental car without any shuttle service.
The location was easy to find. Everything on-site was in English, so there were moments of confusion (laughs), but it all worked out! The staff were bright, kind, and reliable, which made up for it! The scenery is truly amazing. There’s also a bit of an obstacle course that takes about three hours. If you're not afraid of heights, you'll be fine.
You can definitely enjoy nature to the fullest!
念願のジップライン体験してきました!
私達は送迎なしで レンタカーで行きました。
場所もわかりやすかったですよ。現地は全て英語なので なんだかさっぱり(笑)な事もありますが
なんとかなります!そしてそれをカバーするくらい
スタッフは明るく優しく頼もしい!景色も本当に最高です。3時間位でアスレチックの部分も少しあり。高所恐怖症でなければ大丈夫です。
自然を満喫できること間違いなし!です!
This was a swim of a lifetime! The crew was professional, safe and fun. Extremely educational and inspirational. Go with One Ocean Diving!
Great place to zip line...Staff was great. We had tour guides Sage, Danny and Asia. Awesome people and very friendly, the learned our names from just the first zip line. I wouldn't book through Veltra (sorry they were nice) however Climb Works has a greater military discount; 25% trumps 10% any day, wish I knew that. It was a great adventure overall! I would do it again.
This tour was our family favorite. The time flew by as we moved from line to line. The crew was a lot of fun and very helpful! I can't wait to go again.
It was really amazing. The guys were really nice and funny, answering every questions. We stayed really long in the cage and at no time we felt unsecure. We saw many sharks all around the cage and coming close to the boat. If you can, ask for them to take the pictures with a gopro, they'll be a lot and you won't have to worry about it.
I wanted to try ziplining, so I booked a package that included transportation. The pickup time was punctual. There was one Japanese couple, and the rest were all foreigners. Although the explanations were only in English, they were easy to understand with gestures. (It might be tough if you don't understand any English at all.) The staff were cheerful and kept the energy up, so I enjoyed the tour the whole time! The first line was scary, and I had a hard time jumping off, but from the second line on, it was fun to glide, and I wasn't scared anymore. I was able to slide backward and even upside down.
ジップラインをやりたくて送迎付きを申し込みました。
ピックアップの時間も時間通りでした。
日本人カップルが一組おり、後は外国の方ばかりでした。
英語でしか説明されないのですか、身振り手振りで分かりやすく説明してもらえます。
(全く英語が分からないと大変かもしれません)
スタッフも明るく、盛り上げてくれるのでツアー中ずっと楽しめました!!
1本目は怖くてなかなか飛び降りる事が出来なかったですが、2本目からは滑る事が楽しくて怖さはありません。
後ろ向きで滑ったり、逆さに滑ったり出来るようになりました。
Driver only spoke of food! Then it was not very clear on what was included so we missed the food trucks and NO lunch (after all talk and no food).
Aloha Ms Cueno, we are very sorry to hear that the driver was not clear about things an only talked about food.
We will definitely talk to him about it.
Just to be clear, the tour package you bought included the kayak plus the admission to the falls park, but did not include a free lunch on us.
Some of the other customers use only one activity and have lunch on us -in lieu- of the second activity . Is this where the confusion started?
Our manager will call you to clarify everything with you.
Much aloha
I participated alone. In the morning, I had a doll pineapple, and for lunch, I enjoyed a recommended shrimp plate lunch from the guide in Haleiwa. It was very delicious. The horseback riding was a lot of fun, enhanced by the beauty of Turtle Bay. The horses were well-trained, and it felt more like being carried by the horse rather than riding it. Even for first-timers, as long as you hold the reins properly, you'll be fine. The horses follow the guide's instructions, and the scenery was so beautiful that time flew by. On the way back, I observed sea turtles at the beach, which was very soothing.
一人で参加 午前中はドールパイナップル、お昼は ハレイワで ガイドさんお勧めのエビのプレートランチを食べました。とてもおいしかったです。乗馬はタートルベイの美しさと重なりとても楽しかったです。馬もちゃんと訓練されており馬に乗っているというよりも乗せてもらっているみたいな感じでした。初めての方でも たずな をしつかり持っていれば大丈夫 コースガイドさんの指示で馬は動きますので 何より景色がきれいなので テンションが上がりあっという間でした。帰りはビーチでウミガメ見学 癒されました。
This was the best zip line experience I've ever done. Each line was a blast, the crew was fun to hang out with and they gave us drinks and food from the farm we flew over. The adventure of going from station to station was also fun. As the course went on they build your confidence to try new fun ways to fly. The views are spectacular of the North Shore. This experience is well worth the drive from Waikiki.
I wanted to spend some relaxing time on the North Shore, so I joined this tour with a longer stay. The other two families besides us were planning to go horseback riding.
During the trip, they provided us with information on how to enjoy the North Shore and details about the shops, which was very helpful since we joined without any plans.

Since I was traveling alone, I participated with safety in mind. The timing was also very organized, so I could join without any worries. Along the way, I learned various interesting facts and even got to see turtles, which made me very satisfied! Haleiwa was amazing. If I had to say something negative, it would be that there wasn't enough time. Next time, I want to go to Kailua.
一人旅だったので、安全を考えて参加させていただきました。
時間もきちんとしていて、不安なく参加できました。道中、いろんな豆知識もきけたし、亀にも会えて大満足!
ハレイワ最高でした
難を言えば、時間が足りなかったかなぁ。
次回はカイルアに行きたいです
In the town of North Shore, I didn't have much time for sightseeing, but I was able to enjoy delicious garlic shrimp and Matsumoto Shave Ice, recommended by our guide. As a beginner in horseback riding, I had some anxiety, but it was fun to appreciate the beautiful seaside scenery from the unique perspective of being on a horse's back. The horse seemed to be hungry and didn't always listen to me, which made it a bit challenging, but aside from nibbling on grass, it walked along the course without me needing to pull on the reins, making horseback riding surprisingly easy. I was disappointed that I couldn't see any sea turtles from the beach, but since I had some extra time, our guide took us to a popular coffee stand where I enjoyed a tasting, which made me feel like I got a little bonus.
ノースショアの町では観光というほど時間はありませんでしたが、ガイドさんおすすめの美味しいガーリックシュリンプとマツモトシェイブアイスを食べることが出来ました。乗馬は初心者なので、不安はありましたが、海辺のきれいな景色をお馬さんの背中という普段とは違った視点から堪能できて楽しかったです。馬がおなかを空かせていたようで、言うことをなかなか聞いてくれずに苦戦しましたが、草をつまみ食いしているとき以外は、手綱を切らずともコースを外れずに歩いてくれて、意外と簡単に乗馬が出来ました。ビーチからウミガメが見れなかったのが残念でしたが、時間に余裕があったため、ガイドさんが人気のコーヒーの直売所に連れて行って下さり、試飲を楽しめたため、少し得をした気分になれました。
This was my third time in Hawaii, and my first horseback riding experience! Initially, I was considering horseback riding at Kualoa, but I chose this place because I wanted to try the authentic garlic shrimp! As a result, I was thrilled to ride in the best location! The horses got distracted along the way and literally stopped to graze (~_~;), which was quite an amusing experience! Thank you to the friendly guide as well!
ハワイ3回目にして初めての乗馬❗️最初はクアロアで乗馬を考えていましたが、本場のガーリックシュリンプが食べたくてこっちにしました!結果最高のロケーションでの乗馬が出来て感激‼️お馬さん達は、途中食欲に負けて文字どうりの道草(~_~;)これも中々の面白い体験でした‼️親切なガイドさんもありがとう〜〜‼️
I participated during free time.
I was with the horseback riding group.
I also spent about 30 minutes at the Dole Plantation. It was nice that it was not crowded since it was right after opening.
After that, I had free time on the North Shore. I think the timing was just right for enjoying the garlic chicken, visiting the original Kua 'Aina, and shopping.
Later, after visiting a few beaches to see sea turtles, I rejoined the horseback riding group and headed to Waikiki.
I felt that being able to sleep in the car on the way back was something you can only do on a tour.
The guide/driver had a very calm tone, which was nice.
Since it was hard to hear the name, I thought it would have been even better if there were name tags in the car.
I would like to participate again.
フリータイムで参加しました。
乗馬の方と一緒でした。
ドールにも30分ほどよりました。開店直後なので空いていてよかったです。
その後はノースショアのフリータイム。
フリフリチキンに、クアアイナの本店、買い物など、ちょうどいい時間だったと思います。
その後、ウミガメを見にいくつかビーチをまわったあと、乗馬の方と合流で、ワイキキへ。でした。
帰りの車で眠れたのはツアーじゃないとできないと思いました。
ガイドの運転手の方もとても穏やかな口調で良かったです。
名前が聞き取りにくかったので車に名札でもあると尚良かったと思います。
また参加したいです。
I signed up for the "Free Time Plan" with my colleagues at work. I had already visited Haleiwa several times, but the tours usually only offered about an hour of free time, which didn't allow for much freedom. However, this "Free Time Plan" provides about three and a half hours of free time, allowing you to go wherever you like at your leisure.
I strolled from Macky's Shrimp Truck to Haleiwa Beach Park, taking breaks at a café, having lunch, and shopping along the way. I truly enjoyed exploring Haleiwa from one end to the other! This is a convenient and excellent plan for those who want to go wherever they please without being tied to a tour schedule.
会社の同僚と「フリータイムプラン」に申込みました。
ハレイワは既に何度か訪れている街だったのですが、フリー時間が1時間程度のツアーばかりでなかなか自由が利きません。
しかし、この「フリータイムプラン」はフリー時間が3時間半程度あり、気ままに好きな場所へ行くことが出来ます。
マッキーズのシュリンプトラックからハレイワビーチパークまで散策しましたが、途中カフェで休憩をしたり、昼食をとったり、買い物をしたりと、まさにハレイワの端から端まで堪能できました!
ツアースケジュールに縛られず、好きなところへ行きたい方には手軽で最高のプランです。
I was anxious because I couldn't communicate, but the instructor was very kind and attentive, so there were no problems at all.
Jumping from the top of the mountain was a very pleasant and enjoyable experience.
I brought my phone to take pictures, but I recommend not bringing it because if you drop it, it would be a serious issue.
言葉が通じないので不安だったがインストラクターの方はとても優しく丁寧だったのでなんの問題もなかった
山の上から飛ぶのは非常に気持ちよく楽しい体験をすることができました
写真を撮るために携帯を持って行ったのですが落としたらシャレにならないので持って行かないことをおすすめします
Shopping and lunch in the North were great, and afterwards, I went horseback riding by the beach, which was incredibly relaxing. The horses were smart and cute, and the scenery was amazing—I was very satisfied! ♡
ノースでの買い物やランチも出来てその後は海辺の乗馬ですごく癒されました。馬もお利口で可愛いし、景色は最高で大満足でした♡
Saw at least 15 sharks!! We went on the last tour of the day and the waters were extremely choppy. I would book a tour first thing in the morning. Otherwise it was amazing!!
Our guide, Kai, was absolutely amazing! While we weren't able to make it to the swimming hole due to massive amounts of rain making it unsafe at the water crossings, he took us on an additional hiking section where we got to see various parts of the trail. The lunch provided was hand-made and was delicious... wish I knew how to make those rolls! I would more than recommend this excursion with Kai... he gets more than 5 stars!
Our zipline adventure was amazing! I am sure we help set the tone for the morning, but the guys were absolutely great! They were very personable, knowledgeable and really knew how to have fun with us. I would recommend this excursion for anyone who wants a little adventure and wants to have fun doing it!
On May 30th, I tried ziplining, which I had been interested in for a while during the Hawaiian holiday. It was refreshing! The views were amazing! As a middle-aged couple at 49, we were as excited as kids! The apple bananas at the water station were delicious. Although no one spoke Japanese, we had a fantastic time. If the price were a bit lower...
5/30ハワイの祝日に以前から興味があったジップラインをやってきました。
気分爽快!景色最高!49歳の中年夫婦 子供のようにはしゃいでしまいました!
途中の給水ポイントでのアップルバナナおいしかった。
日本語は一切通じませんが、めっちゃ楽しかったです。
値段がもう少し安ければ…
It was great, i got picked up and he drove out to the northshore, showed us around the town and then the activities started. He was very available to pickup after each activity and drop you off where you wanted to go. Waterfall, snorkeling, shrimp truck, beach time & stand up paddle board, it was great. There are other activities to pick from. He even stopped because he saw a sea turtle was sitting on the beach, so we could see it and take pics, it was great!
I slowly rode while looking at Turtle Bay. It felt so nice. The horses were calm and very gentle. I'm sorry for being a heavy lady. It was a very enjoyable and delightful horseback riding experience in Hawaii. They guided us to the shrimp lunch early, so we could eat right away without waiting. It was delicious!
タートルベイを横に見ながらゆっくりと乗馬します。まあ~気持ちのいいこと。
おとなしくてとっても優しい馬たち。重たいオバサンでごめんなさいね。
とても楽しいうれしいハワイでの乗馬体験でした。シュリンプのランチも早めに
案内してくれて待つことなくすぐに食べられました。美味しかった~。
