My wife had a fever, so I had to participate alone, and I was the only Japanese person among 15 participants. However, both the staff and the captain were very cheerful and talked to me, so I had no worries! I just thought it would be safer to have some English conversation skills since all the explanations from the staff were in English.
妻が熱を出し急遽1人での参加になり、ましてや15人中私だけ日本人という事でしたがスタッフ、船長ともにとても陽気に話しかけてくれ不安はありませんでした!
ただスタッフからの説明など全て英語でのやりとりなのでいくらか英会話が出来た方が無難かなと思いました。

I participated in the local gathering because I wanted to explore various places. For some reason, there were no other Japanese people, and the rest were mostly foreigners, divided into three groups to enter the cage. I took motion sickness medication, but it swayed quite a bit. Even when stationary, it still swayed, so I think it's better to avoid it if you're not feeling well. There are many awake animals, but they seemed quite used to people, so it wasn't particularly scary. However, if you get too close, the cage itself might seem like it could let an Asian-sized person slip out, which could be frightening. Activities like this are not available in Japan, and I really enjoyed it.
他にも色々回りたかったために現地集合で参加しました。なぜか日本人は他にいなくあとは外国の方ばかりで3つのグループに分かれゲージに入ります。酔い止め飲んでいましたが、かなり揺れます。止まっていても揺れるので体調が悪い状況では特にやめた方がいいと思います。また覚めはたくさんいますが、基本人馴れしているのかあまり怖いという状況はなかったです。かといってあまり近すぎてもゲージ自体がアジア人の体型なら抜けていきそうなので、怖いと思います。こういったアクティビティは日本にはないしかなり楽しめました。

I participated in a North Shore horseback riding tour. We had about an hour's stay in Haleiwa, including lunchtime, so we couldn't take our time. The horseback riding experience seems to differ from the Japanese style. You ride a horse that matches your body type. The ride takes place near the beach. Since there is a compatibility between the horse and the rider, at first, the horse may be a bit excited and not used to the rider, but as it gets accustomed, it becomes easier to handle. It's good to communicate with the horse by talking to it. Each horse has its own personality; the horse I rode tended to walk on flat paths and strayed from the line in front, but I thought that was just its personality. The supporter leads the way, and we follow at that pace. There was another group with a foreigner who seemed to have an animal allergy and ended up with a swollen face after riding. Those with animal allergies should be cautious. You can't bring too much luggage while riding. You can't take photos with a DSLR camera while riding because the shutter sound can stress the horse. However, it's possible with a smartphone or compact camera, as long as it's small enough to fit in one hand and can be stored in a chest pocket. Since you'll be focusing on riding, you'll likely be able to take photos only after getting used to it. It’s difficult to take still images as they tend to blur.
ノースショアと乗馬ツアーに参加しました。
ハレイワには、1時間程度の滞在です。ランチ時間込みなので、ゆっくりはできません。
乗馬体験は、日本式とは乗馬の仕方が違うようです。
馬のチョイスは、その方の体型に合わせた馬に乗ります。
浜辺近くを乗馬します。馬との相性がありますので、最初は馬も乗る人に慣れなくて、、興奮気味ですが、次第に慣れてくると扱いやすくなります。
馬に声をかけながら、コミュニケーションを取るなどいいでしょう。
馬も其々個性があり、私が乗った馬は、平坦な道を歩こうとするので、前の列からはみ出し歩いていましたが、この馬の個性なんだな、、と思いました。
サポーターの方を先頭に歩きますし、そのペースに後ろからついて行く感じです。
他のグループですが、白人の外国人ですが、動物アレルギーをお持ちの方が乗馬をして、顔が腫れてしまったようです。
動物アレルギーの方は、注意した方がいいかもしれません。
手荷物は、多くを持っての乗馬はできません。
一眼レフカメラ等は乗馬しながらの撮影は出来ません。カメラのシャッター音が馬にストレスを与えるからだそうです。スマホ、コンデジカメラなら可能ですが、乗馬をしながらですから、片手で収まり、胸ポケに入る大きさなら大丈夫です。
乗馬に集中するので、写真が撮れるのはかなり乗馬に慣れてきてから、となりそうです。
ブレますので、静止画は撮れにくいです。

I love horse trekking and participated in this tour. Riding a horse and feeling the great outdoors was healing. The guide was the worst. Even though all the customers were from Japan, the tour started with criticism of Prime Minister Abe. He even told the customers to act like fools. I guess he meant to say let's loosen up and have fun, but as a person from Kansai, I somewhat understand the nuance. However, there are likely many people who feel uncomfortable with the word "fool." His language was also crude, and I wouldn't want to join a tour with this guide.

I participated with my parents. I've been to the North Shore many times, but this was my first time horseback riding there! It was fun to see the ocean while riding. My parents enjoyed it too. However, there was absolutely no service, like taking photos for us, and in the end, we had to ask for a picture, but there was no communication at all, so we weren't even sure if it was taken or not...

On May 31, 2017, my husband and I participated! Recently, ziplining has become popular in Japan, and we were very interested. At that time, I happened to find this perfect site while browsing and immediately made a reservation!
On the day of the event, they picked us up at a nearby hotel, and we headed to Keana Farm with the other participants! Besides us, all four other couples were from English-speaking countries, and our driver couldn't speak Japanese, which made us a bit anxious. However, there was an instructor on-site who was fluent in Japanese, which put us at ease.
We put on our gear and got started! I thought the first line would be a bit scary, but it turned out to be an amazing thrill! While moving around the farm in a buggy, the instructor was kind, fun, and safety-conscious, and before we knew it, our enjoyable time had flown by. I felt like Spider-Man amidst the magnificent nature of Hawaii.

Had a great time swimming with the sharks even though it was in a cage. It was a little windy and the waves were rocking the boat so make sure you can take the rough waters. One got really sick from the motion but only one. It was really fun and well worth it. These sharks were very docile but swam by gracefully for some really good picture taking. I nor anyone on the boat ever felt unsafe swimming with the sharks. So much fun.

My brother and I have long been shark fans. As a keen diver I've seen the occasional reef shark but wanted to see something bigger. We went out on the boat (limited to 6 of us) and after a short ride arrived at the site where we spent probably half an hour by the boat (holding onto the lines) then free swimming and diving with Galapagos and Sandbar sharks (around 40 at one point but always at least 15 around us at varying depths). There were multiple times when we could have touched one with a flipper they were that close but we didn't feel threatened at all (although i would be lying if I said we weren't a bit scared). There was only one shark that bared his teeth to us which was amazing to view and again not threatening. The staff made us feel very safe and are very passionate about the sharks. I've dived around the world but never come across an opportunity to swim with this many large sharks in the wild. I cannot recommend this enough. #HelpSaveSharks

My daughter said she wanted to ride a horse, so I did some research and found good reviews about this place, so I made a reservation. On the day of our visit, we arrived in about an hour by rental car. Our family of four started on time. We rode along the coast and into the woods. There were moments when the horses stopped to eat grass, but generally, they followed the horse in front of them. We returned to the coast, where we took many photos. We rode for just over an hour. All the staff were cool women. Our guide was Jessie. As soon as we finished, she took two horses to practice polo. Tips were separate, so I had prepared some, but she left quickly, and when I asked another staff member to give it to her, they called her back. It’s a bit challenging to get there without a car, but it’s a wonderful place! I definitely want to go again and ride a horse! On the way back, we even saw a beautiful rainbow, making it an unforgettable day! 😊
娘が馬に乗りたいと言うので調べたところ、こちらの評判が良かったので申し込みました。
当日はレンタカーで1時間程で着きました。
家族4人で時間通りにスタートしました。海岸を通り林の中へ。途中馬たちが草を食べ出し止まってしまうこともありましたが、基本的には前の馬に付いて歩いてくれます。また海岸に戻り、そこで写真を何枚も撮って頂きました。
1時間強は乗っていました。スタッフは皆格好いい女性です。私たちの担当はジェシーさん。私たちが終わるとすぐに、2頭の馬を連れ、ポロの練習に行かれました。チップは別途となっていたので、用意していたのですが、すぐに行かれてしまい、他のスタッフに「渡して下さい」と言うと、呼び戻してくれました。

They taught us patiently. It's fine even if you only speak English. All the staff were kind.
Definitely bring a camera or smartphone! But make sure to attach a strap so you don't drop it. Or wear pants with zippers? Just make sure you don't drop anything. If you're doing the morning session, you'll finish after 1 PM, so you'll return to Waikiki around 2 PM. We thought we might get hungry, so we had a little donut on the bus. Others didn't seem to eat anything, though (laughs) just for reference.

A car with "Keana Farm" written on it came to pick us up.
Before we started, one friend who wasn't good at sports and was a bit afraid of heights ended up having a great time, even sliding upside down with hands off the harness at the end.
The staff accompanying us took photos—52 pictures of the three of us.
I attached a digital camera to my wrist to take pictures of my companions, but since I couldn't capture myself sliding, I ended up buying one.
They also sold original T-shirts from Keana Farm.
The point where we had to climb up using our arm strength was tough!
Personally, the scariest part for me was the point where we had to jump down about 3 to 4 meters.
Of course, there was a safety harness, and staff were there to catch us, but I couldn't keep my knees straight and ended up sitting down on landing. How embarrassing!

Our main event this time was horseback riding. Last time we did it at Kualoa, but here the duration was longer, and the horses were smart, which made it a安心 experience. It was disappointing not to see any turtles, but we were able to have lunch at a restaurant we researched in Haleiwa, and we also had time for shopping. Haleiwa drops you off at your requested location, so I think it's good to do some research beforehand. It's only an hour, so if you haven't checked, it goes by in a flash. Horseback riding truly became the main event this time, and it was fantastic!

We participated as a couple from Waikiki, taking the bus. We arrived early to avoid being late and walked about 10 minutes from the bus stop, but no one was there. There were several booths surrounded by fences, and the horses were lounging around, looking quite relaxed.
After waiting for 50 minutes, just as our reservation time was approaching, we heard cheerful voices and about ten people returned. They each took commemorative photos before leaving, and we thought we could get on right away, but we were told, "You have to wait for one more group to arrive," and we ended up waiting another 30 minutes.
Finally, we started with a family of four from California, but the eldest daughter’s horse wouldn’t move. The instructor, who was at the front of the line, just kept saying to kick its belly. I thought we could have switched horses, or even used my horse from the riding club.
We returned as scheduled, but we could have ridden for another 30 minutes, right? Unlike the previous group, we didn’t get to take commemorative photos, which was a bit disappointing. However, we did give a proper tip. If we participate again, we plan to request a horse that can run.

そのみなさんがそれぞれ記念撮影などして帰って行き、すぐ乗れるのかと思いきや「もう一組客が来るから待ってて」と言われ、再び待つこと30分。

We were caught in heavy rain right after we started our ride at Hawaii Polo Club, so we couldn't begin horseback riding for a while. After that, the rain lightened up, and we enjoyed riding in the refreshing atmosphere after the rain. However, my daughter's horse suddenly crouched down, perhaps trying to dry off its wet body, which surprised us. Fortunately, the guide responded quickly, and since my daughter was accustomed to riding, she wasn't scared and we were able to start again. It was our first experience like this, and it made us realize that we are riding living creatures, not machines.
There were also small mishaps afterward, but we enjoyed those as well. It was a wonderful experience to take a pleasant walk along the beach with the horse, creating great memories.
私たちが、ハワイポロクラブについてすぐに、大雨に降られしばらく乗馬が始められませんでした、、その後、小雨になり、雨上がりの爽やかな中、快調に乗馬を楽しんでいたら、、娘の乗った馬が濡れた体を乾かそうとしたのか、しゃがみ込んでしまい、びっくりしましたが、ガイドの方が、迅速に対応してくれたのと、娘も、乗馬には慣れていたので怖がることもなく、再びスタートすることが出来ましたが、こう言うことは初めてだったので、びっくりしましたが、改めて、私たちは、機械ではなく、生き物に乗っているんだと実感しました。
その後も、小さなハプニングは、いろいろありましたが、それも楽しめました。
海辺を気持ちよく馬と一緒にお散歩できて、貴重な経験も出来て、いい思い出になりました。

One Ocean Diving is a class act, and how they go about teaching you about how to swim with sharks is as professional as it gets. Never once did I feel nervous about jumping into the open ocean with these animals. The cost might be slightly high for a tour without any transportation, lunch or anything else, but knowing that your money is going toward ongoing research about sharks is well worth it. All staff know what they are doing and their passion for what they do really shows. Thanks for an unforgettable experience!

Such a great day! A fantastic way to discover the north shore, just the right blend between organized activities and free time! I would do it again without hesitation

Thank you very much for your help the other day; my family of four had a great time. Before participating in the tour, I thought we would just go to the North and ride horses, but thanks to Hiro's detailed explanations of sightseeing points, time management, and highlights, we learned many things we didn't know before. It turned out to be a very satisfying tour for all four of us. I definitely want to join other tours with Hiro's transportation and guidance as well.
Thank you for a truly enjoyable time.
先日は大変お世話になり、家族4人で楽しむ事が出来ました。ツアーに参加する前は、ただノースに行って馬に乗るだけなのかと思っていましたが、送迎して頂いたヒロさんの細かい観光ポイントの説明や、時間配分、見所等々、随所に配慮頂き今まで知らなかった事を知る事も出来、家族4人大変満足のいくツアーとなりました。是非また他のツアーもヒロさんの送迎&添乗で参加したいと思います。
本当に、楽しい時間をありがとうございました。

At Dole, you only have about 30 minutes, so it's best to quickly finish shopping while eating ice cream and take care of restroom needs. If you take your time, you won't get anything done, so it's all about acting swiftly!
When we visited Turtle Beach, it was cloudy, so we couldn't see any turtles, but I've heard that you can usually see them if the weather is nice.
Horseback riding was incredibly fun. They give you a brief verbal explanation of how to ride, but even people in their 70s seemed to enjoy it, so I think it's something anyone can have fun with. Before you ride, they tell you the horse's name, which helps you feel attached, and calling its name or petting it gives a sense of communication.
If you just act normally, it's not dangerous, and the horses are quite gentle. Since you ride through the mountains, I recommend wearing long pants. I saw some young people in shorts, and they got bitten by mosquitoes in several places and had big welts. The ones in pants were unscathed.
At the North Shore, we had lunch (garlic shrimp) and about 45 minutes of free time. When I told the driver I wanted to eat garlic shrimp, he made a reservation, so I was able to buy it quickly. We got lunch boxes, ate outside, and then wrapped up our exploration.
After eating ice cream at Dole and garlic shrimp, there wasn't enough time for shave ice. Since there's a line for shave ice, if you want to eat it, you should either eat the garlic shrimp quickly or have someone stand in line while you eat to make the most of your time.
On the way back, the driver's stories sounded like a lullaby, and I fell into a deep sleep. We returned to Waikiki in about an hour. The horseback riding was with smart horses, so I was able to enjoy a leisurely ride while taking in the scenery, which was truly a great experience.
ドールは滞在時間30分なのでアイスを食べながら買い物を手早く済ませトイレを済ませる感じです。ゆっくりしてると何もできないのでさっさと行動あるのみです!
ウミガメビーチは私たちが行ったときは曇っていたのでウミガメは見れませんでしたが晴れていれば大体見れるそうです。
乗馬はもう最高に楽しいです。最初に乗り方を口頭で伝えられる程度ですが70代の方も楽しんでいらっしゃたので割と誰でも楽しめると思います。
乗る前に馬の名前を教えてくれるので愛着が湧きやすく名前を呼んだり触ったりすると何となく意思の疎通ができる気がします。
普通にしてれば危なくもないしおとなしいと思います。
山の中を乗馬するのでちゃんと長いズボンを履いた方がいいと思います。
若い子がショートパンツを履いていましたが何か所も蚊に刺されて大きく腫れていました。ズボンチームは無傷でした。
ノースショアはお昼ごはん(ガーリックシュリンプ)と45分程度の自由時間でした。
ガーリックシュリンプはドライバーさんに食べたい旨を伝えると予約しておいてくれささっと買えました。ランチボックスをもらい外で食べて散策といった感じで終了。
ドールでアイスを食べガーリックシュリンプを食べるとシェイブアイスは食べれない。。
シェイブアイスは並ぶので食べたい方はガーリックシュリンプはそこそこの早食いか一人並んでる間に食べるとかして時間を有効活用してくださいww
帰りはドライバーさんのお話が子守唄に聞こえ爆睡。1時間程度でワイキキに帰ってこられました。
乗馬は賢い馬なので景色を見ながらゆっくり乗馬できて本当に良い経験ができました。
