On the way to Haleiwa (North Shore), we had a break at the Dole Plantation. It’s a good spot for a restroom break and to check out souvenirs. I took some photos and bought a T-shirt. After that, we were taken to the ranch to start our horseback riding experience. The driver spoke fluent Japanese and provided an overview during the ride. However, all the staff at the ranch were locals, so they didn’t speak Japanese. But they were very friendly, and I managed just fine by watching and mimicking them. My child had ridden horses in Japan before, but this was the first time riding independently rather than on a lead. Since we would be riding for nearly an hour, I was initially anxious, but the horses were very calm, and I quickly got used to it and felt at ease. More than that, my backside was sore! The weather was great, and as we rode along the beach, I felt time slow down and realized I was having a precious experience. This isn’t something you can do in Japan... I would love to do it again if I have the chance, but please be aware that the muscles in my legs, which I don’t usually use, were quite sore right after getting off the horse.
After the horseback riding experience, we were dropped off in the town of Waialua for some free time until the meeting time. We took a lunch break at Island Vintage Coffee and had an acai bowl and a veggie bagel plate. It was very delicious, and my wife really enjoyed the bagel sandwich. After that, we strolled around the town, visiting clothing stores and shops, and when we got thirsty, we ordered shave ice. There was quite a line, but it moved quickly, so we didn’t have to wait too long. On the way back in the car, I was able to sleep soundly, and we got back before 3:00 PM, so it didn’t affect anything afterward. I think it was a really good optional tour.
ハレイワ(ノースショア)までの途中、ドールプランテーションで休憩があります。
トイレ休憩やお土産物を見るのも良いでしょう。私は、写真を撮りTシャツを購入しました。その後、牧場まで連れて行ってもらい、乗馬体験のスタートです。ドライバーさんは日本語ぺらぺらなので、行きの道中におおよその説明をしてくれます。というか牧場のスタッフの方々は全て現地の方なので、日本語は通じませんw でもフレンドリーに接してくださるので見よう見まねで全然大丈夫でした。子供も日本で馬には乗ったことがあったのですが、引き馬でなく自分で動かすのは初めて。しかも1時間近く乗りますので、最初は不安でしたが、馬さん達も非常に大人しく、すぐに慣れて安心して見ていられました。それよりも自分のお尻が痛かったですw 天候も良くて、馬に乗りながらビーチ沿いを歩いていると時の流れをゆっくりに感じて、貴重な体験をしているなぁとしみじみ感じてしまいました。日本ではこうはいかないと・・・ また機会あれば体験したいですが、普段使わない足の筋肉が酷使されているため、馬から降りた直後は心地よい筋肉痛を感じることをご了承ください。
乗馬体験の後はワレイワの街で下ろしてもらい、集合時間までフリータイム。アイランドビンテージコーヒーでお昼休憩を取り、アサイーボウルとベジベーグルのプレートを食べました。非常に美味で、妻がベーグルサンドにハマってました。その後は街をぶらつき、洋服屋、雑貨屋さんを巡り、喉が乾いたところでシェイブアイスを注文。結構な人が並んでいましたが、回転が早いのでそんなに待つことなくありつけました。帰りの車の中ではぐっすり寝ることもでき、15:00前には帰って来れたので、その後に影響することもなく、非常に良いオプショナルツアーではないかなと思いました。
When the weather is nice, the sun can be quite strong while riding, so you might get sunburned as you walk slowly. If you don't want to get tanned, I recommend taking sun protection measures.
天気が良いと、乗馬中は結構日差しが強い中ゆっくりと歩くので日に焼けますw

I wanted my grandchildren to experience various activities at the Polynesian Cultural Center, so we went as a family of nine, including my four grandchildren (ages 0, 2, 10, and 11). Children aged 0 and 2 are free, and those aged 10 and 11 get half price. Other tours don’t offer such benefits, so we were able to participate at a reasonable cost. We had a great time exploring the six villages and experiencing Polynesian culture, as well as enjoying a canoe tour.
Since very little Japanese was spoken, it was difficult to understand how to use the voucher for entry and the announcements regarding pickup times and locations. Japanese brochures are available at the entrance.
ポリネシアンカルチャーセンターで子どもたちに色々と体験させたいと思い、孫4人(0歳2歳10歳11歳)を含め一家9人で行きました。0歳2歳は無料、10歳11歳は半額。他のツアーではこのような特典がないので、リーズナブルに参加することができました。6つ村を巡ってポリネシア文化体験、カヌーツアーと楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。

Out of 16 participants, we were the only two Japanese. On the bus, we introduced ourselves in English, and if you're proficient in English, you'll have a great time. The guide was kind, but we understood more than half of the content. In the morning activities, swimming was prohibited at the waterfall in the botanical garden due to lack of rain (the waterfall itself was dry and not flowing), so I recommend snorkeling. The kayaking was just under an hour on the river. The stops along the bus route included a coconut farm, a fruit stand (a roadside shop), and a shopping mall (single-story). We bought a papaya for $4 at the fruit stand (it was perfectly ripe and very delicious when we ate it at the hotel), and we had Matsumoto's shaved ice at the shopping mall. We had plenty of time and enjoyed ourselves.
参加者16人中、日本人は私たち2人だけ。バスでは英語で自己紹介をするなど、英語が堪能であれば十分楽しめます。ガイドさんは親切でしたが、私たちは半分以上内容を理解できませんでした。午前中のアクティビティーは、植物園の滝は雨不足で水泳禁止だったので(滝自体、枯れ枯れで流れていません)、シュノーケリングをお勧めします。カヤックは川で1時間弱。バスの途中立ち寄り場所は、ココナッツ農園、フルーツスタンド(道路脇の売店)、ショッピングモール(平屋)でした。フルーツスタンドでパパイアを1個$4で買い(ホテルで食べたら、食べごろでとてもおいしかったです)、ショッピングモールでマツモトのかき氷を食べました。時間的には余裕があり楽しめました。

I participated in the Haleiwa walking tour.
The flow was from Dole Plantation to exploring Haleiwa. Due to multiple courses sharing the same shuttle, the stay at Dole Plantation was only 30 minutes. I hurried through shopping and had some soft serve ice cream, so it would have been nice to have about 15 more minutes there.
The time spent exploring Haleiwa was a generous 4 hours, which was just right for enjoying the ocean, visiting cafes, and having lunch.
Gem, who provided the shuttle service, was very knowledgeable and shared information about Hawaii's history, climate, and other interesting facts along the way, which was extremely educational!

I couldn't find the sign listed on the website, but there was a similar sign for "Hawaii Polo Oceanfront Trail Rides" nearby. When I went inside to ask, they confirmed that this was the right place. It might be better to aim for this name from the start.
I had heard from reviews that there would be Japanese guidance available, but I couldn't find any, and all the explanations were in English. I was quite anxious since there were only foreign customers, but the operation was easy, and the staff were kind, so I was able to ride without any worries.
We walked through the pine forest right next to the coast, and occasionally, we got to walk on the beach, making for a fantastic location throughout the experience. They also take photos when you reach the beach.
I think this is an activity that you absolutely must experience when you come to Hawaii. I highly recommend it! (However, I think it may not be suitable for those who are experienced riders and want to run or perform advanced maneuvers, as it is a slow-paced ride.)
サイトに載っている看板は見当たらず、よく似た名前の「Hawaii Polo Oceanfront Trail Rides」という看板がすぐ近くにあり、中に入って聞いてみるとここで合っているとの事。最初からこの名前の看板を目掛けて行った方がいいかもしれません。
あと口コミで日本語の案内が置いてあると聞いていましたがどこにも無く、説明も全てオールイングリッシュ、外国のお客さんばかりで不安でいっぱいでしたが、操作も簡単でスタッフの方も優しく、何も心配なく乗ることができました。
海岸すぐ横の松林を歩き、たまに広いビーチになるとビーチを歩く瞬間もあり、終始最高のロケーションの中楽しく過ごすことができました。
途中ビーチに出た時に写真も撮ってくれます。
ハワイに来たら絶対に体験した方がいいアクティビティだと思います。
本当にオススメです!!(但し乗馬に慣れていて自分で走らせたり上級の操作をしたい方には不向きだと思います…終始ゆっくりゆっくり歩くだけなので^^;)
Be careful of the signs. You can bring water, so it's better to take some with you. Also, sunscreen is a must! I forgot to apply it in some areas, and they got sunburned bright red.

I participated in the 6:30 AM tour. I was more worried about seasickness than the sharks, as I had read in reviews that it could be severe. In the end, the boat and the cage did sway, but perhaps because it was morning, I managed to cope with the slight rocking. On the way back, I dozed off, but my child said they saw dolphins.
Regarding the number of sharks, I thought I wouldn't see many, but it seems there is a way to attract them, and we were able to see quite a few. The moment I first saw the silhouette glowing in fluorescent colors from the sunrise above the boat was the scariest, but since the sharks weren't charging at the cage, I was reasonably satisfied.
Additionally, I brought my own snorkeling set, as mentioned in the reviews. I also got to see the beautiful morning scenery of the North and saw plenty of sharks, so I was very satisfied with this experience.
朝6:30のツアーに参加しました。

結果、船もゲージも確かに揺れはしましたが朝だったおかげか多少の揺れで乗り切れました。帰りは居眠りしていたのですが、子どもが言うにはイルカも見えたようです。
鮫の量については、なんだかんだそんなに見られないかと思っていましたが、呼び寄せ方があるようでたくさん見ることができました。

ノースの綺麗な朝の景色も見られ、鮫もたくさん見たのでこの1回で大満足です。
Just to be safe, it might be a good idea to bring candy and a snorkeling set. I didn't understand what was being said in the English explanation, but it simply means not to extend your arms and legs,

"Be punctual."
I had a stomachache in the morning and informed them that I needed to go to the restroom, but I ended up being three minutes late to the meeting time. After that, I was subjected to snide remarks in the car.
If I were to hear such comments on my honeymoon, it would really ruin my mood. When I tried to give a tip that corresponded to the service, I was told, "I don't need it!" which left me feeling quite unpleasant.
I only handed over a tip for the service, but it seemed like there was a requirement to give at least $20 in the car. I was filled with the feeling of, "What? After making me feel this way?"
I think it could be fun if you get a good guide, but since this isn't a cheap tour, I would recommend avoiding tours where you might get lucky or unlucky.
Personally, I won't be using this service again.
「時間厳守」
朝お腹が痛くなりトイレ行ってきます。とお伝えし、集合時間に3分遅れてしまったのですが、その後の車の中でぐちぐち嫌味を言われました。
新婚旅行でそんな嫌味を言われたら気分も悪くなり、サービスに相当するチップを渡したら「いらないよ!」といわれ、かなり嫌な気持ちになりました。
サービスに対するチップを渡しただけなのですが、車の中には最低20ドルを出してください。と記載がされていた様で、「え?こんな思いさせといて?」という気持ちでいっぱいです。

Thank you for participating in the tour with Island Makana Tours. We apologize for any discomfort you may have experienced. There is information regarding tips inside the vehicle (as this is a culture not present in Japan, we often receive requests for clarification). There is no mention of a minimum of $20, so we would like to correct that. Thank you for your valuable feedback.
このたびはアイランドマカナツアーズのツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございました。お客様に不快な思いをさせてしまい、申し訳ありませんでした。車内にチップに対するご案内があります(日本にない文化ですので、わからないから教えて欲しいと言われる事が多い為)。最低20ドルを~という記載はありませんので、訂正させていただきます。貴重なご意見、ありがとうございました。

I am going around personally, and I have a great time with very kind people. All explanations will be in English. I think it will be a good experience for children as well.
個人回りしてますが、すごく親切で楽しい時間を過ごせます。説明は全部英語になります。子供にも良い体験になると思います。

This is perfect for those riding a horse for the first time. Children as young as two can ride, so I think it's safe for small kids. The horses are all gentle, but if you are experienced, it might feel a bit lacking.
初めて馬を乗る方にはピッタリです。2歳から乗れるし、小さい子供も心配ないと思います。ことなしい馬ばかりで、もし経験者であれば少し物足りないかもです。

It was my first horseback riding experience, and the guide kindly assisted with explanations, allowing me to enjoy it without any worries. Riding along the beautiful coastline was a rare experience. At the viewpoint, they took individual photos for each of us with our smartphones, which became a nice memory. In the end, I rewarded the horse that carried me with some treats. It was truly fun. The free time in North Shore, where you can get off in front of your favorite shops, is also a big plus!
初めての乗馬体験でしたが、ガイドの方が親切に説明のアシストをしてくださり、何の不安もなく楽しむ事ができました。
キレイな海沿いをのんびり乗馬するのは貴重な体験です。
ビュースポットで、1人1人丁寧にスマホで写真を撮ってくださり、記念になりました。
最後は、自分を乗せてくれたお馬さんにエサのご褒美。
本当に楽しかったです。
ノースショアでの自由時間も、好きな店の前で下車できるのも、ポイント高いかも!
Thank you for participating in the horseback riding tour with Island Makana Tours. I hope you enjoyed the ride along the coast. It is a very popular tour, so I’m glad to hear you had a great time. Please consider using Island Makana Tours again when you visit Hawaii. Mahalo,

We used this service for our family's first trip to Hawaii. We enjoyed a full hour of horseback riding, and the location was amazing. The horses were well-behaved, with gentle eyes that were just too cute! It was a sunny day, but there were plenty of shaded areas, so it wasn't as hot as I expected, and we had a great time! I don't understand English at all, but they showed us a Japanese version of the explanation video, which made me feel at ease. I definitely recommend this experience!
家族で初めてのハワイ旅行で利用しました。
1時間たっぷり乗馬してロケーションは最高。お馬さんはいい子で優しい瞳で可愛いすぎた!
日差しが強い日だったけど日陰も多くて思ったより暑くなく楽しめました!
英語は全く分からないけど日本語版の説明動画も見せてくれて安心しました!是非体験してきてください
A light cover-up might be good for sun protection.
薄い羽織ものがあると日焼け対策にいいかもです

Tonight we went to an immersive and interactive luau -it was simply the best and I would highly recommend!
We all had such a great time - we were welcomed like family! We loved learning to drum, spin fire “knives”, wrap fish for cooking, bury the fish to cook on the hot rocks, have a traditional kava ceremony, and weave tea leaves to make bracelets, leis, etc. We then had a catered kalua pork dinner and got to eat the fish we wrapped and cooked. This was so much better than the commercialized luaus we have attended before! If you want a true family experience this is for you. If you want the commercialized cocktail filled experience this isn’t it!
