North Shore Sunset & Daytime Horseback Riding with Ocean Views - Gunstock Ranch

Excellent Oahu activity!

Reviewed by: George

I did this with my 23 year old daughter and we both felt that this was an outstanding activity! The ride was great - some hills, windy trails, spectacular views, just the right length - 90 minutes. The staff was super - Darleena couldn't have been better - so knowledgeable, friendly and patient! The horses were very calm and perfect for this type of ride. We both agree that this is one of the best things we've done on Oahu. We've already recommended Gunstock Ranch to other family members that are planning to visit Hawaii. (I'll send photos later)

This was my first time participating, and it was really fun! The boat rocked quite a bit, but no one got seasick during our trip. The staff only spoke English, but they were cheerful, and there were no significant inconveniences. Once we got started, it was more exciting than scary, and it was truly a memorable experience that you rarely get to have. I wish we could have dived more. We went at the end of September, and it was really cold after we got out. Also, I'm glad I brought an underwater camera!

今回初めての参加でしたが本当に面白かったです！
船はかなり揺れましたが私たちの時は誰も船酔いしませんでした。スタッフの方は英語しか話せませんが陽気で特に不便な事もなかったです。

出来ればもっと沢山潜っていたかったです。
私たちが行ったのは９月末でしたが上がった後はすごく寒かったです。あと水中カメラは持っていってよかったです！

Reviewed by: tuyosi

I've been to Hawaii many times, but this time I wanted to join a tour that I had never done before, and I found this one. At first, my wife and I were anxious because the guide only spoke English and it involved sharks, but once we participated, the guide was kind and entertained us with easy-to-understand English mixed with Japanese. When we dove into the ocean, we were overwhelmed by the countless sharks in the incredibly blue sea, but by the end, my wife and I were so into it that we said we wanted to dive even more. I recommend this for those who are familiar with Hawaii and looking for some excitement.

ハワイには何度も行っていますが今回は今までにしたことのないツアーに参加したくてこのツアーを見つけました。
最初はガイドが英語のみだしサメということで妻と二人で不安でしたが実際に参加してみるとガイドの方は親切でわかりやすい日本語まじりの英語で楽しませてくれました。

It was fun! However, I did get a bit drunk. 楽しかったですよ！但し酔いますが。

Reviewed by: ぺっか

I participated in September 2006.
Aside from my husband and me, the other tour participants were four white Americans and Australians.
On the boat, the staff provides safety instructions before we enter the cage that is submerged in the sea.
English was sufficient, but there are explanation panels in Japanese for Japanese participants.

As we head out to sea on a private boat, we see sharks appearing one after another.
Then we enter the cage that is submerged in the sea to see the sharks.
It was really thrilling.
They keep throwing food in, so the sharks come one after another.
It was so much fun.

However, since we were offshore, there were quite a few waves. Watching the sharks from a cage that was half floating in the waves made me feel quite seasick.

The nausea hit me more after getting back on the boat.
My husband and an American woman ended up getting sick on the boat.
I found it tough, but I managed to hold it in.
It seems that people often get sick, and the staff casually said, "Feeling unwell? Just throw up outside the boat." They had plenty of water available for us to drink.

Despite those little mishaps, I think it was a very enjoyable experience. I highly recommend it.

2006年9月に参加しました。
ツアー参加者は私たち夫婦以外は、アメリカ人、オーストラリア人の白人が4人でした。
船上でスタッフの方が海中に檻を沈めてから中に入るまでの注意をしてくれます。
英語で足りましたが、日本人用には日本語の説明パネルがあります。

専用のボートで沖に行くと、出るわ出るわサメさんたちが。
そして海中に沈めた檻に入ってサメをみます。
いや~迫力でしたよ。
エサをどんどん投げ入れるので、サメは次々に来ます。
楽しかった~。

でもね、沖合い（？）なので割と波があるんです。その波に半分浮かんだ折の中でサメを見るので、結構酔います。

酔いは船にあがってからの方がきます。
夫とアメリカ人の女性は船上で戻してしまいました。
私はツラかったけど、我慢した。
吐く人はしょっちゅういるみたいで、スタッフさんは「気分悪い？、船の外に吐いて吐いて」みたいな感じであっさりでした。お水もたくさん用意されていて飲ませてくれました。

そんなハプニングもありながら、とても楽しい体験だと思います。オススメです。

My husband and I had a gret time at the Polynesian Cultural center. The tour bus guide "Kemo" or Cousin K was very knowledgeble about the cultures, and land legends of Oahu. The tour bus ride was 1 hour 15 minutes from Waikiki, but it went by very quickly. He taught us how to speak Hawaiin properly, a few legends from the Windward side, as well as the local spots. Once in the center, we got to see all but 2 islands (very hard to do as the center is huge) and we went to many shows, the canoe ride, the lua, and the night show. It was a very long and hot day that ended in a huge rain shower, but it was so worth it and we do not regret spening the whole day there. Very educational!!

Take A Camera!!

Reviewed by: Dr Bob (From the UK)

Great trip, with a very knowledgeable captain and crew.
Bring your underwater camera for some pictures of a lifetime,,,, so you think!
You will be back to enjoy this again.

Visibility was well over 50 feet and the water was a crystal clear deep blue.
When you are in the cage you are totally protected and safe, yet as the sharks come so close you feel as if you are out there with them.

The only bad thing for me were the pretty high waves, which made it difficult to hold the camera still. (As seen from the pictures)

This experience is on the 'To Do on the next trip' list.
Thanks everyone involved

Horses are the best! 馬、最高！

Reviewed by: ホーススピリット

I participated in a 2-hour horseback riding course on September 11. While there weren't any people who could speak Japanese well, it wasn't much of a problem. If you prepare yourself for that, even someone like me who doesn't understand English at all won't be surprised. I was a beginner, but I had the best time riding alone in the magnificent nature. The horse I rode was quite mischievous, wandering off and eating grass, which was challenging at first, but by the second half, I was able to control it well, and I felt a connection with it; it was really cute. Since it's a living creature, I believe it has its own personality even if it's trained. At first, my four companions and I were walking in a scattered line, but a kind female staff member helped us line up properly. However, for those who aren't confident about their behinds, I recommend starting with a shorter time. It seemed to be tough for my companion. We were the only Japanese people there, but I didn't feel any discrimination and was able to have a fun time.

9/11に乗馬2時間コースに参加しました。
たしかに日本語がまともに話せる人はいなかったのですが、たいして困らなかったです。
ただ、そのように覚悟をしておくと私のようにまったく英語がわからない人でもびっくりすることがないと思います。
私は初心者でしたが、荘大な自然の中を1人で馬に乗れるなんて最高の時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
私が乗った馬はけっこうやんちゃな子で寄り道して草ばっかり食べて最初は大変でしたが後半ではうまくコントロールできるようになりましたし、また心が通じた気がしてほんとにかわいかったです。
生き物ですから調教されてるといっても個性はあると思います。
4人の連れとも最初ばらばらに並んで歩いていましたがやさしい女性のスタッフがちゃんと前後に並ばせてくれました。ただ、お尻に自信が無い人は最初は短い時間をお勧めします。連れはそれが大変だったみたいです。
日本人は私達だけでしたが特に差別的なことも感じず楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。

We just purchased the general admission which starts at 4pm til 9pm Friday, 9/14.
We thought that when we get there there will be entertainment in each island that was presented but to our surprise some of the islands are empty. No performers. We did the canoe ride wherein you don't really see much entertainment, just showed us the different cultures of diff. islands.
The Cultural show was the best. But because of the site where we seat we could not really see it very well.
But we had a great time.

Suggestion: It would be nice if you have some more choices of menu in the snack bar for those guests that did not buy the package with the dinner and the luau so they can also enjoy the food even if they have to buy it themselves.

I had an amazing time. 最高に楽しかったです

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated in a two-hour horseback riding course. Both my friend and I were a bit anxious since we are not fluent in English, but it turned out to be an incredibly fun time.

First, the staff began with an explanation. It seems there weren't enough staff members who could explain in Japanese, so the Japanese explanation was limited to the main points, such as the dangers involved in handling animals and how to hold the reins.

Next, we chose our horses, and the staff designated who would ride which horse. It seems that even though we were paired, we couldn't ride in the order we wanted, but they seemed to choose based on the horses' conditions. Additionally, if we mentioned later that we were a pair, they would adjust the order during the ride, so I didn't think it was a problem.

This time, two female staff members accompanied us during the ride. They were very cute and kind. Although they hardly understood Japanese and sometimes spoke harshly when participants didn't follow instructions, I understood that it was necessary due to safety concerns.

In fact, there was someone who accidentally pulled the reins too hard, causing their horse to back up, which made the horse's hind legs almost go over a cliff, creating a bit of a scare, but the staff quickly rushed over.

The horses were well-trained and walked slowly in line (they are usually very calm, but each horse has its own personality, which is interesting). The staff, mixing in some broken Japanese, tried hard to convey that there were Godzilla footprints, took pictures for us, and even picked some wild Gaba fruits growing by the roadside to distribute to everyone, making the experience enjoyable.

Amidst the magnificent scenery, swaying on the cute horses, we had a leisurely ride (sometimes at a brisk pace) and spent a wonderful time horseback riding.

　乗馬２時間コースに参加しました。
　スタッフの対応等の体験談で私も友人も英語が堪能なわけではないので、不安な面もありましたが、私達が参加した時は最高に楽しい時間となりました。
　まず、スタッフの説明から始まりました。こちらについては、日本語で十分に説明できるスタッフがいないらしく、日本語の説明は要点のみとなっていました。生き物を扱うので危険がともなうことや手綱の引き方です。
　次に馬を選んで、スタッフの人が騎乗する人を指名します。これについては、ペアだからといってこちらの思うように順番に乗せてはもらえないようですが、馬の様子等をみながらで選んでくださっているようです。それに、後でペアだからと伝えれば、乗馬の時の並ぶ順番は前後にしてくれるので問題はないと思いました。
　今回は女性スタッフ二人が参加者の前後についてくれました。このお二人がとてもかわいくて親切でした。日本語はほとんど通じませんし、参加者が指示を守れてなかったりした時の口調はきついものもありましたが、危険があるのでそれはしかたがないと思いました。
　実際、思わず手綱を引っ張ってしまったのか、馬を後ずさりさせてしまった人がいて、馬の後ろ足が崖にかかってちょっとヒヤッとしたりもしましたが、その時はスタッフが駆けつけてました。
　馬はしっかり調教されていて、ゆっくりと並んで歩きます（調教されていてたいていはとてもおとなしいのですが、それぞれの馬に個性があってそこもおもしろいです）。
　スタッフの人は片言の日本語を交えながら、参加者に一生懸命ゴジラの足跡があることなどを伝えようとしてくださってたり、写真を撮ってくれたり、道端に自生しているギャバの実を採ってきて皆にひとつずつ配ってくれたり、楽しくしようとしてくださってました。
　雄大な景色の中、かわいい馬に揺られてのんびり（時々小走り）と、たっぷり乗馬ができてとても良い時間を過ごすことができました。

Karen was up front with us so i had more experience with her, she was pointing out all the movie location spots and actually stopped to pick us all fruit, she went on to explain some natural horse behaviors, cuz i was kinda nervous and she put me completely at ease. She was even nice enuff to stop and collect our cameras so that we can have a picture on our horses. The experience was great, the views were nothing short of breathtaking, the history of the ranch is a story worth hearing as well. I would definately do this again! Although it is nose to tail riding, you can NOT run the horses but its more about the scenery anyway! GREAT TIME!
