I had the best experience riding horses in a wonderful landscape!
However, the transportation was disappointing. I didn't know that there were only a limited number of buses at specific times, and there was no prior explanation about this. It was only when I arrived on the day that I was handed a paper stating the time of my return bus. Since I wasn't informed in advance, I couldn't even cancel.
Of course, I can tolerate some waiting time, but this was beyond reasonable. It was terrible to wait for over 2.5 hours for the shuttle bus with nothing to do! If the schedule was going to be like that, I would have liked to know beforehand.
Since it was such a waste of time, I called an Uber and went home immediately. I asked if I could get a refund since I didn't take the bus, but I was told there would be no refund due to the cancellation policy. I thought they should have informed us about the shuttle bus waiting for nearly three hours, but there was no point in saying anything, so I just accepted it.
The transportation fee for a large tour bus carrying many people was quite high. If there are multiple people, it's much cheaper, faster, and more efficient to use Uber for round trips.
What should have been a great experience was tarnished by poor management.
素晴らしい風景の中を乗馬ができ、最高の体験でした!
ただ、残念なのが送迎。
指定時間に決められたバス本数のみの送迎だとは知らず、そういった事前説明もなし。当日現地についてから、あなたの帰りの送迎バス時間は何時ですと
書かれている紙を渡されて初めて知ります。事前に知らないのでキャンセルすることすらできません。
もちろん多少の待ち時間は許容できますが、常識を超える長さ。
やることもないのに、ただただ2.5時間以上も送迎バス待機はあまりにひどい!
そういう時間スケジュールになるのなら、事前に教えていただきたかった。
あまりに時間が無駄なので、Uberを呼んですぐ帰りました。
バスに乗らないから返金してほしいときいてみましたが、
当日キャンセルだから返金はないとキャセルポリシーを説明されました。
じゃ、3時間ちかく待たせる送迎バスですと事前に知らせてよって思いましたが、言っても仕方ないので泣き寝入り。
送迎料金が大型観光バスで大人数を運ぶのに、かなりの高額。
複数人いるならUberで往復いくほうが、安くて圧倒的に速く効率的。
せっかくの良い体験のはずが、運営がよくなくて印象が損なわれました。

The horses were quite large, and I was nervous at first, but I gradually got used to it and was able to enjoy both the horseback riding and the surrounding scenery. The guide was very supportive and incredibly cute, which made the experience enjoyable throughout. Each horse had its own personality; mine was very smart, as it was in the lead, my son's horse was a glutton and a bit impatient, my husband's horse was the calmest and most experienced, and my daughter's horse was quite laid-back. After the horseback riding, we had a lively discussion about the horses. My son, who rode the gluttonous horse, was desperately trying to control the reins to stop its appetite, and he ended up with blisters on his hands!
By the way, I had no time to take photos, which is my only regret. The tour itself was wonderful, allowing us to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery of both the sea and the mountains.
Additionally, the Kualoa Burger ($15) we had at the attached cafeteria was exquisite. I regretted not bringing a light jacket because the shuttle bus was quite air-conditioned. The lockers ($5) were convenient as they allowed for all-day access, and credit card payments were accepted. You can bring a water bottle or smartphone in a bag attached to the horse, but there’s no time to drink slowly. Photos can only be taken with one hand, so balance is essential—no dropping allowed.
Our schedule was efficient with a 10 AM pickup, horseback riding at 12:30 PM, and a bus departing at 3:45 PM. However, since there’s a beach within walking distance, I’d like to allow more time to visit it next time. The buggies also looked interesting, so I’d like to try those as well. The burger is a must for next time!
お馬さんがかなり大きくて初めは緊張しましたが徐々に慣れて乗馬も周りの景色も楽しむ余裕が出てきました。ガイドのお姉さんが一生懸命サポートしてくれましたし、とってもキュートな方だったので終始楽しかったです。お馬さんはそれぞれ個性があって、私のお馬さんは先頭を任されるだけあってとても賢い子、息子はその後ろで食いしん坊でせっかちなお馬さん、パパの馬は一番落ち着いててベテランな感じ、娘のお馬さんはかなりののんびり屋さん。乗馬が終わってからもお馬さん談義に花が咲きました。特に食いしん坊なお馬さんに乗っていた息子は彼の食欲を止めるのに手綱を必死で操り手にマメができました笑
ちなみに写真を撮る余裕は私には全くなく、唯一の心残りです。ツアー自体は景色は海も山も自然を大満喫できて素晴らしかったです。
その他
併設のカフェテリアで食べたクアロアバーガー($15)は絶品でした。
送迎バスはかなりエアコンがきいてたので羽織ものを持っていけばよかったと後悔しました。
ロッカー($5)は1日開閉自由なので便利だと思います。クレジットカード払い可。
お馬さんに付けるバッグにペットボトルやスマホを入れて持っていけるけれどゆっくり飲む時間はないです。写真も片手で撮れる方のみ。バランス必須。落とすの厳禁。
我が家は10時pickup、乗馬12時半予約、15時45分発バスで無駄がないスケジュールでしたが、歩いていけるところにビーチがあるので、今度行くときはもう少し時間に余裕を持たせてビーチまで足を伸ばしたいなと思いました。バギーも面白そうだったのでそちらもやってみたいです。バーガーは次回も欠かせません。

We participated in a two-hour horseback riding experience with three family members. The pickup was a bit early at 7:30 AM, but it was quite popular, with two large buses completely full (a group of people going to Kualoa Ranch, not just for horseback riding).
Upon arrival, the Japanese group gathered with a Japanese staff member who explained the starting procedures, shops, and restrooms. We were informed that only a waist bag could be worn while riding (backpacks are not allowed; smartphones and drinks can be placed in a bag attached to the saddle), so we needed to use a locker. However, when I tried to pay with a card, the touch sensor was overly sensitive, and I couldn't complete the transaction, but the Japanese staff member helped me out. In the end, I paid with cash... $5 felt a bit steep.
After that (from here, it was in English), we reviewed the safety instructions, signed a consent form, watched a Japanese explanation video, and then began riding. I had never done proper horseback riding before, but the horses were smart and moved in a single file. My elementary school daughter had no trouble at all.
We walked slowly through the forest and entered the world of Jurassic World. Besides horseback riding, there were buggies, buses, and bicycles, but the horses leisurely moved through the backyard where those vehicles couldn't go. So, the buggy group looked like a gang of speeders!
Honestly, I didn't remember much about Jurassic World, but the weather was nice, and the scenery was magnificent and beautiful, which was moving. The horseback riding didn't cover all the filming locations of the movie, so for those who want to visit the filming sites, I think it's better to join a dedicated tour (by bus?).
The two hours flew by! The horse I rode, Dino, was a bit crazy and often stopped or tried to turn around, but it was still very comfortable. Each horse has its own personality.
As expected, when getting off the horse, my legs didn't move well, and I felt a bit wobbly. My backside was a little sore too! We had lunch before the return bus, but surprisingly, there wasn't much time.
While I thought a buggy ride would be nice next time, the scenery and atmosphere while horseback riding was truly an exceptional experience, so I would love to go again.
家族3人で2時間の乗馬体験に参加しました。
朝7:30と少し早いピックアップでしたが、大型バス2台が満員の人気振り。
(乗馬に限らずクアロアランチに行く人達の集団)
到着すると日本人グループは日本人スタッフの方に着いて集合し、それぞれの開始方法やお店、トイレの説明をしてもらえます。
乗馬はウエストバッグしか付けられない(リュックとかはダメ。スマホや飲み物は鞍に付けられる袋を借りて入れられます)とのことで、ロッカーに入れる必要があるんですが、カードで払おうとするとタッチセンサーの感度がよすぎてうまく払えなく、ここも日本人スタッフの方がお手伝いしてくれました。結局、紙幣で払ったんですが・・・。5ドルはちょっと高いな。
その後(ここからは英語)注意事項を見て、同意のサインして、日本語の説明ビデオを見て乗馬開始。
ちゃんとした乗馬したことはなかったんですが、お馬さんはかしこいのでちゃんと1列で進んでくれます。小学生の娘でも全然平気。
ゆっくり歩いて森の中を進み、ジュラシックワールドの世界へ。
乗馬以外にバギーやバス、自転車が走っていますが、馬はそれらが入れないバックヤードをのんびり進んでいきます。なのでバギー隊が暴走族に見えますw
正直ジュラシックワールドはあんまり覚えてなかったですがw、天気もよく、景色が壮大で綺麗だったので感動しました。
乗馬は映画のロケ地を全部回る訳ではなかったので、ロケ地巡りがしたい方はそれ専用のツアー(バス?)に行かれた方がいいと思います。
2時間はあっという間!
私の乗った馬、ディノ君はクレージーだったらしく、よく立ち止まったり、Uターンしようとしたりしましたが、全然快適でした。個性ありますよね。
お約束は馬から降りるときに足がうまく動かず、がくっとなります。おしりも少し痛いw
帰りのバスまではお昼ご飯食べてましたが、意外と時間は少なかったです。
次はバギーもいいなと思いつつ、乗馬しながらのあの景色、雰囲気は本当に格別な体験だったのでまた行きたいと思いました。

The Oahu Island tour was perfect for seeing a lot of the island. I appreciated that the group was smaller than some of the other tour companies we saw riding around- it allowed us to have a more personal experience. Our tour guide, John, was a wealth of knowledge about the island, its history, and its residents, and I enjoyed spending the day with him! John’s trained eye also helped us find turtles during our stop, which was a huge help! This tour was a good mix of everything - from local food to breathtaking views. I would recommend this tour be one of your first stops on your visit to Oahu, as there are many things you see along your drive that you may want to revisit during your trip (and your guide can help you determine which ones are worth your money!)
Hello Cassandra,
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you had a great time with John. He really knows the Island well. He also knows his food as well. We are glad you were able to see the turtles as well. Thank you so much for your recommendation and we hope you enjoy your whole time in Hawaii.

The reservations are easy - and complete. I was still recuperating from a surgery, so we secured a mobility cart, which is right at the entrance to the Polynesian Cultural Center. The bus picks up from several points in Waikiki; it is comfortable and also waiting right at the entrance-exit after the show is over. The day is extraordinary - the staff is so friendly and helpful, as we asked questions at the various Islands. There is a river cruise you can take - the Center is 40 square miles (think Disneyland) so prepare your walking shoes and attire accordingly. Terrific shopping before the Center actually opens. Take a poncho, because there is a lot of rain on that side of the island - rains quickly, dries quickly.
The buffet is amazing and delicious, and a real bargain if you're feeding starving teens! The show is exquisite. They help park the mobility cart everywhere, so if you have mobility issues - worry not!
Enjoy as much as we did!
thank you for your feedback!

I signed up for the session on Sunday at 9:00 AM (meeting at 8:30 AM).
【About Transportation】
- Since it was mentioned in the introduction that it takes 90 minutes from Waikiki, I caught an Uber after 7:00 AM, but it seems that Sunday mornings are less busy, and I arrived in just an hour.
- There was no one at the check-in location, and the Uber driver, seeing a sign that said "If no one is here, please call this number," kindly made a call, but the staff did not arrive immediately and showed up only after the meeting time. From this, I think it’s not necessary to arrive before the meeting time, just like in Japan, although it may depend on the day and circumstances.
【About the Experience】
- It was interesting to enjoy both mountain and ocean views. At the end of the horseback riding, they took a few pictures with my phone. I appreciated being able to feed the horses and interact with them after the experience.
- However, the horseback riding itself was only about an hour, and including explanations, it lasted 1.5 hours. I chose this experience thinking it would be 1.5 hours of riding, so that was a bit disappointing.
- On this day, everyone except me was a native speaker, and all explanations were in English. During the horseback riding experience, we enjoyed conversations in groups centered around the instructor.
【Other Notes】
- It might be good to wear long sleeves in the morning as it can be cold on the mountain side.
- A hat is not necessary, but I think sunglasses would be helpful as it can be bright.
- If you are uncomfortable touching the reins with bare hands, it might be a good idea to bring work gloves.
- Tips were given in a box.
- After horseback riding, I took an Uber to Haleiwa, enjoyed some food and shopping, and then returned home by The Bus. For those who are not driving, I recommend taking an Uber for the outgoing trip, which is more predictable, and then using The Bus for the return trip to save a bit.
日曜日9時(8:30集合)の回を申し込みました。
【移動について】
・紹介文などにワイキキから90分かかると記載されていたため7時過ぎにUberを捕まえて向かいましたが、日曜朝は空いているのか1時間で着きました。
・チェックイン場所に誰一人おらず、「誰もいなければここに電話するように」と書かれた看板を見たUberの運転手さんが心配に思ったのか、電話をかけてくださいましたが、スタッフはすぐ来ることはなく、集合時間になってから来られました。
これらから、もちろん曜日やその時の状況によるとは思いますが、日本と同じように集合時間前に着くようにくる必要はないです。
【体験について】
・山と海の景色両方を楽しめるのは面白かったです。乗馬終盤には、自分の携帯で写真を数枚撮ってくれます。体験後に餌付けをさせてもらい、馬と触れ合えたのがよかったです。
・ただ、乗馬体験自体は1時間程度で、説明なども含めて1.5時間でした。当方は乗馬が1.5時間できるものだと思いこちらの体験を選んだので、それだけは残念でした。
・この日は当方以外は全員ネイティブで、説明も全て英語でした。乗馬体験中もインストラクターを中心に、グループごとでの会話を楽しみました。
【その他】
・山側が朝は寒いので長袖でも良いかもしれません。
・帽子は不要ですが、眩しいのでサングラスはあったほうが良いと思います。
・手綱を素手で触るのに抵抗がある方は、軍手を持っていってもいいかもしれません。
・チップはボックスに入れる形式でした。
・乗馬後はUberでハレイワまで向かい、食事やショッピングを楽しんだ後The Busで帰宅しました。運転をしない方は、行きは時間の読めるUberで行き、帰りはThe Busで行くと少し節約になるのでオススメです。

There were no Japanese participants on this tour, but the instructor was very kind and made me feel at ease! The view from 6,000 feet above ground was breathtaking! From there, with a countdown of 3, 2, 1, we experienced a free fall for about 20 seconds. I briefly thought, "Oh, this is going to be dangerous," but after about 10 seconds, I got used to the free fall and did the "ebi-zori" position (the posture for free fall is like a shrimp). I truly had a valuable experience and felt it was worth it! However, I wouldn't recommend it for those with a fear of heights or who are not fond of roller coasters! (laughs)

On March 15th, 2024, I went to PCC and participated in the Gateway Buffet package. This experience included admission to the park, buffet, and show. Each village was unique, and educational. The canoe ride was my favorite part of the park, a must do!
The buffet dinner was INCREDIBLE, they had everything you could imagine. From salad, sides, pork, chicken, beef, seafood, and dessert. The presentation of the food, and dinning hall felt like something out of a movie! They really set the scene for local cuisine.
'HA: Breath of Life,' show was spectacular a must see! The dancers were truly amazing! I would definitely go see it again and again. Everything about PCC was so professional, engaging, fun, and educational. There is something for the whole family.
I would recommend PCC to anyone who enjoys learning about different cultures, and has a full day to spend away from Waikiki.

They start sliding down regardless of a little rain (laughs) (sweat).

On the day of the event, I arrived at the meeting place just in time, but the staff quickly approached me, and I was able to check in without any issues. It seemed like there was plenty of time built into the schedule, so it didn't feel like I was late at all. The bus was spacious and comfortable, and I dozed off for a bit, only to find that we arrived in no time. Once we got to the location, the staff provided guidance to everyone, so there was no chance of getting lost. I had a horseback riding experience, and everyone was kind, explaining things slowly and thoroughly. Surprisingly, the horses seemed very experienced, and it felt like I was mostly being led by them. Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy the magnificent scenery of forests, mountains, and the ocean. I didn't include lunch in the plan, but there was a restaurant on-site, so I had no trouble finding food. The Kualoa Burger was very delicious.

This is my second time coming to Kualoa Ranch, and last time I participated in the movie location tour. It was also my first time riding a horse, so I was quite nervous. First, when riding, you need to wear long pants and shoes, and your bag should be something that can be secured around your waist like a fanny pack. Also, be aware that the horse may stop to eat grass or take breaks, so it's good to know how to handle that. The horseback riding lasts a full two hours, and you can enjoy the beautiful nature of Kualoa and the stunning ocean along the way, which is just amazing.
クアロアランチに来るのは2回目で、前回は映画ロケ地ツアーに参加しました。乗馬自体も初なのでドキドキでした。まず乗る時には長ズボンと靴、小さめのカバンなどはウェストポーチのように腰に巻きつけられるものでないといけないので注意。また馬が途中で草を食べたり、止まったりすることがあるので対処法を確認。乗馬は2時間たっぷりクアロアの自然や途中綺麗な海を眺めることもできて最高です。

The shuttle bus includes participants from other countries, but they provide simple explanations in Japanese on board. Once we arrive at the location, they will explain the return meeting time and facility details in Japanese, so it's reassuring. After that, we stored our luggage in lockers and moved to each attraction booth individually. We chose the horseback riding course, so we headed there. This time, there were six people on the tour. After learning how to operate the horse through a simple Japanese video, we quickly got on the horses and started. We completely control the horse ourselves, but a guide is next to us, which is very reassuring. I don't think there are many opportunities to ride horses for two hours in Japan, so this is an amazing experience! My wife also said it was the most enjoyable part of our trip to Hawaii.
迎えのバスは他国からの参加者も混載ですが車内では簡単な日本語で説明してくれます。
現地に着くと日本語で帰りの集合時間や施設説明をしてくれるので安心です。
その後、ロッカーへ荷物を預けて各アトラクションのブースへ各自移動します。
我々は乗馬コースをチョイスしてたのでそちらへ。今回は6人のツアーでした。
馬の操作法を簡単な日本語ビデオで学んだら早速乗馬してスタートです。
馬を完全に自分で操るのですが、横にガイドさんがついてくれるので心強いです。
日本では2時間も乗馬する機会は無いと思うので最高に良い経験になります!!
家内も今回のハワイ旅で最も楽しかったと喜んでいました。

We booked this tour for the day before we left for home .
The trip and the wealth of knowledge Brandon imparted was so good we really did wish we had booked it at the very start of our trip so we could take advantage of all the tips and suggestions he made to maximise our experience whilst visiting the island .
Every stop we made added to our fabulous experience of the island . My only wish having now taken the tour was to have the bus stop on the north shore for 15 mins maybe to fully experience the fabulous waves we only saw from the bus window ..
Brandon was a wealth of knowledge and kept the bus engaged at all times .
Aloha Deborah, Thank you so very much for taking your valuable time to rate us and for your kind words. We are truly grateful to all guests and visitors who express their appreciation of our services. We look forward to seeing you again one day! :) /Cecilia - owner/

The horseback riding experience at Kualoa was wonderful. Exploring the beautiful nature on horseback was a perfect opportunity to refresh both body and mind. With the guide's extensive knowledge, I was able to enjoy the scenery from a new perspective while having fun communicating with the horse.
クアロアでの乗馬体験は素晴らしかったです。美しい自然の中を馬に乗って探索することは、心身をリフレッシュさせる絶好の機会でした。ガイドの知識豊富な案内もあり、馬とのコミュニケーションを楽しみながら新たな視点で景色を楽しむことができました。
