My wife and I participated in the tour with our daughter. Since we were there, we chose the two-hour course because it included movie filming locations and views of the ocean. However, after two hours, even though I had experience riding horses when I was younger, my backside started to hurt. It's funny, but for those with hemorrhoids, two hours might be tough. The horses are gentle, so even beginners can follow along without much issue. There were a few times when the horse stopped to eat grass, and I had to pull on the reins a bit harder. Aside from the pain in my backside, I was satisfied with the experience.

I attended my niece's wedding and joined three young-at-heart ladies. Even though I call them ladies, they are seniors, starting from 60! On top of that, none of us could speak English, but we managed just fine. The instructor was assigned to us and was friendly in an American way, trying to keep the mood lively (laughs).
When it was our turn, we boarded the plane (a Cessna?) and took off, but fortunately or unfortunately, I was seated by the door. The door was left open during the ascent, which was the scariest part! As we climbed, the ground below shrank rapidly (maybe we turned), and it was just the sea, yet we kept rising and could see the horizon! My legs went weak, and I was so scared that I instinctively closed my eyes. It seemed like the people in the back didn't have that experience.
During the dive, I left everything to a cautious young man with blue eyes (laughs). When we were falling, it felt like floating and was fun! However, after the parachute opened, perhaps for the sake of service, he started spinning us around, and since I'm sensitive to motion, I completely felt sick.
When I mentioned I was feeling sick (with gestures), he adjusted things, but it still shook until we reached the landing spot, so those who are sensitive to motion will definitely feel unwell.
But it was a valuable experience! I'm glad I did it! It was fun!!

オバサンって言ったって60を筆頭にしたシニアですよ!おまけに英語も全く話せないけど何とかなります。インストラクターは割り当てられていて盛り上げようとアメリカ式に友好的です(笑)
順番が来て飛行機(セスナ?)に乗り込み離陸しますが幸か不幸か座った場所がドアの所でした。ドアは開けたままの上昇でこれが一番怖かった!どんどん足元の地上が小さくなって(旋回したのか)海だけになって、それでも上昇して地平線が見えてくるんです!足がすくんで怖くて思わず目を瞑りました。後ろの席の人はそれはなかったみたいです。
ダイビングは青い目の慎重なお兄ちゃんの成すがままでした(笑)
落ちてる時は浮いてる感じで楽しかった!でもパラシュートが開いてからはサービスのためか振り回してくれるのですが乗り物に弱い私は完全に気持悪くなってしまいました。
気持悪い(手ぶり)と言うと加減してくれますが着陸地点まではやはり揺れるので乗り物に弱い人は気持悪くなるのは必須です。

While horseback riding, it started to rain and I got completely soaked. It was quite cold that day, so at the souvenir shop, I could only find a muumuu for myself and a T-shirt for my husband, and I returned home with my pants still wet.
If you're going to use a locker for your belongings, I think it would be a good idea to bring a simple change of clothes.
The horseback riding was amazing. Both my horse (Dolcera) and my husband's horse (Big Sexy) were greedy and would munch on grass the moment I let my guard down, acting as if nothing was happening even when I scolded them... We had such a fun and happy time.
乗馬中、雨が降り 全身びしょびしょになりました。その日は寒いくらいでしたので、お土産の売店で 私はムームー、主人はTシャツしか売っていなくて、ズボンは濡れたままで帰りました。

You can feel like you are traveling in the great outdoors. The horses are smart, and I felt safe riding even as a beginner. On the course, there were cows grazing, we walked through the forest, and we could see the ocean from a high point. This was truly the essence of horseback riding in Hawaii! They also stop along the way so you can take photos.
However, the guide is a very nice person, but since they don't speak Japanese, the instructions on how to ride and handle the horse are given in English. It might be a bit difficult for those who don't understand any English...
I recommend it for those who have a car and can understand a little bit of English!
大自然の中を自分で旅しているような気分になれます。
お馬さんも賢くて初めてでも安心して乗れました。

My first skydiving experience!
Since it was an early morning plan, we gathered at dawn. I was a bit worried because it was a local tour, but I felt reassured when I could watch a Japanese video in the car during the transfer.
When we arrived at the venue, the local instructor explained everything in English. They said we would be called when it was our turn.
While waiting to be called, I had breakfast from a food truck nearby. The muffin was very delicious.
No matter how long I waited, I wasn't called.
Before I knew it, I had been waiting for about 5 hours.
I wondered why it was taking so long.
The local operation was a bit disorganized, and they were guiding customers who arrived later before us.
No wonder I wasn't called...
I guess that's just part of the national character, so there's nothing to be done about it. Hmm.
Finally, I was called, so I gathered my spirits.
I put on the harness, and it was time for the rehearsal.
After practicing a few times on the ground, we boarded a small plane.
In about 10 minutes, we quickly reached an altitude of 4,000 meters!
If you're sensitive to changes in air pressure, make sure to remember to equalize your ears.
With the skilled instructors, I was thrown into the sky without a moment's hesitation to jump from the plane. Haha!
During the free fall, I was so focused on breathing that enjoying the scenery was secondary!
Once the parachute opened, the beautiful scenery of Hawaii finally came into view.
The sky is blue.
The ocean is blue.
I was simply moved.
The instructor explained the scenery while we were circling.
I'm glad my first skydiving experience was in Hawaii.
The local operation was a bit disorganized, so I would rate it a -1, but other than that, there were no problems at all.

I had a horseback riding experience with my husband. On the day we made our reservation, it was canceled due to heavy rain the day before, but we were able to quickly reschedule and go horseback riding. I had previously ridden at a different place, but this one felt more homey, and the instructor was very nice. They taught us how to ride and handle the horses in a clear and thorough manner. The course took us through the great outdoors for just under an hour. We saw some cute cows along the way. We also had a view of the ocean. Unlike the previous riding place, we were able to stop along the way for photo opportunities. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to visit this riding stable again.
主人と一緒に乗馬体験をしました。予約した日、前日は大雨でキャンセルになりましたが、直ぐに予約を取り直し乗馬をする事ができました。以前は違う所でしましたがこちらの方がアットホームで、インストラクターの方もとても良い方でした。丁寧に乗り方,馬の操り方を分かりやすく教えて下さいました。コースは大自然の中を1時間弱回りました。途中に牛がいてとても可愛かったです。海が見渡せました。以前の乗馬場ではなかった途中で止まって写真撮影もしておただけました。又ハワイに行く機会があればこちらの乗馬場に再度お邪魔したいです

I participated with my son, a first grader who loves sharks, and my family. I was worried about the high waves, but we were able to see plenty of sharks while wearing life jackets. The gaps in the cage were quite wide, making it seem like a child could easily slip through, which was quite terrifying as a parent. However, my child held on tightly to the bars of the cage, so it was okay. One of the Spanish women who entered the cage with us wore water shoes, and they hit my body hard, which was very painful. Everyone is supposed to take off their sandals and shoes before boarding the boat, but it seems that this was overlooked. It's best to be cautious and check if the people in your group are wearing shoes or sandals. Other than that, I was very satisfied.
サメ好きの小学校1年生の息子と家族で参加しました。波が高くてどうなることかと思いましたが、ライフジャケットを着せてたっぷりサメを見れました。ゲージの隙間がかなり広くて、子供は容易にすり抜けられそうなほどでしたので、親としてはかなり恐怖でしたが、子供はしっかりゲージのバーにつかまっていたので、大丈夫でした。一緒にゲージに入ったスペイン人の女性の一人が、あろうことかウォーターシューズを履いて入ったので、靴ががんがん身体にあたってとっても痛かったです。船に乗船するときサンダルや靴はすべて脱いで入っているはずなのに、漏れていたようです。一緒に入るグループの人が靴やサンダルを履いていないかどうか、気を付けていたほうがいいです。それ以外は大満足でした。

I booked this horseback riding tour because my boyfriend has expressed how much he has always wanted to ride a horse. I did a quick search and Veltra had this awesome offer for a 2-for-1 which I found perfect as a surprise for him! I booked it and got confirmation very quickly.
We were coming from Honolulu so the drive took about an hour. Our booking was at 2pm and check-in was at 1:30pm. The early check-in was for the explanation of the liability and consent form while they prepared the horses. There was the two of us plus a small family of three. Helmets are recommended but not required- they are free to use. (If opt to not use a helmet, you must sign a section on the liability form) Around 10 minutes before 2pm, they explain and demonstrate how to ride and take care of our horses. We get on and begin the tour shortly after 2pm!
We got lucky with the weather! When we first arrived, it was grey, cloudy and started to drizzle. By the time we began our horse ride it turned sunny! Leanna was our guide and she is the sweetest person! We were all beginning horseback riders so we went at a good pace. She talked about the range, answered our questions, asked about ourselves, and made sure we were all comfortable and in control of our horses throughout the entire tour. The trail included uphill, downhill, and flat plains. The top view was absolutely stunning. We got to see the beautiful blue ocean in-front of us and the Ko'olau mountains behind us. Leanna even took our photos and they came out amazing. It was so serene, sunny and not too hot because there were cool breezes throughout that hour trail ride.
This is definitely an experience of a lifetime. I am so incredibly happy we got to do this! The views were breathtaking and I will be attaching photos even though the real thing is 1000 times better! We'll be doing it again the next time we get the chance. Thank you so much Leanna and Gunstock Range for a lovely time and thank you Veltra for the great offer!

My wife and I were in Hawaii for our honeymoon and wanted to venture out to the north shore of Oahu to get a taste of the landscape out there. I booked a horseback riding tour for our first full day in Oahu, and even though we had to get up early to make it out in time for our ride, it was SO worth it. Everything with the ride and staff at Gunstock ranch was perfect. Finding the ranch was easy and the signs leading to where we needed to go were so clear. We showed up a little early and our tour guide was still grooming and prepping the horses for the day, but she let us wander around and meet some of the horses. She was so kind and informative and did an amazing job leading our ride. She was patient and very clear in her instructions, and even though our ride was only 1 hour I feel like she went above and beyond to pack as much as she could into our hour ride! The service from Gunstock ranch was TOP NOTCH and I would HIGHLY recommend anybody to check it out. Even if the price seems a little high, it was so worth it and I can guarantee you will not regret making the trek out and taking a trail ride with Gunstock ranch. The location / area is so beautiful, we even saw a full and amazing rainbow the morning of our ride. If I could give this company / this ride 6 stars I would! I will definitely come back again next time we are on the island!
Aloha!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We hope you love our ranch as much as we do, and we hope to see you again soon.

I participated in the trip with my sister!
We were the only Japanese participants among the attendees, and since the staff couldn't speak Japanese, I was a bit anxious at first. However, the staff explained things using gestures, simple English, and broken Japanese, so I didn't have any major issues.
They provided us with a guidebook that had the tour flow and precautions written in Japanese, so as long as you read that, there are no problems!
We went out to sea on a boat and once we arrived at the spot, we put on our snorkels and entered the cage.
Swimming with the sharks in the beautiful deep blue sea was more fun than I imagined!
You can bring an underwater camera or smartphone into the water, so you can take photos and videos with them in waterproof cases.
I usually don’t get seasick, but I took motion sickness medication just in case.
The boat rocked quite a bit, and some people looked a bit worn out...
I think the motion sickness medication is essential.
If you want to relax, that's great, but if you're looking for something a little different!
If just going to the beach or shopping isn't enough for you!
This tour is highly recommended! ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ

I was thinking of using a shuttle service, but I wanted to save money, so I took theBUS for $2.50 (about 250 yen) per person! If you take bus number 55 from Ala Moana Center, you can get there in about an hour without any transfers! It's easy to get to, and since you can definitely get a seat from Ala Moana Center, I recommend taking theBUS for a budget-friendly option (^ ^).
My check-in time was at 10:15, but I actually got on the horse at 11:15 ^^; During the hour wait, I looked around the souvenir shop, and since there was free unlimited water, I enjoyed the nature while waiting ☆ There’s a restaurant next to the souvenir shop with drinks available, and the hamburgers are really, really delicious! They are quite filling, so for Japanese people, one might be enough for two ^^* I was worried about food and bought a sandwich at ABC Store, but since there’s unlimited drinks (water) and a nice restaurant, it wasn't necessary.
Near the horses, the smell of manure is quite strong (laughs). I experienced the two-hour course, and for two full hours, I rode while enjoying the magnificent scenery! The weather was nice, and it felt really good (^ ^).
As a note, video cameras and backpacks are not allowed. Waist pouches are okay. It seems that you can't film with one hand like you would with a video camera. I didn't see anyone with a selfie stick, but since both hands would be occupied, I think that's also not allowed. The best recommendation is to hang your smartphone around your neck! Be careful with pockets on your waist or butt, as things might fall out. Taking photos is totally fine, and I was able to film as well!
Aside from taking pictures, you need to hold the reins with both hands (it feels unstable if you don't), so please be cautious. Since it's in a rural area, the return theBUS runs every 40 to 50 minutes, so keep an eye on the time. Also, since it's a bus from the countryside to the city center, more people get on as you approach Ala Moana Center, and it took about an hour and a half. If you have any plans, please be careful.
送迎付きにしようと思いましたが安くしたかったので
theBUSで1人$2.5(≒250円)で行けました!
アラモアナセンターから55のバスに乗れば1時間ほどで乗り換えなしで着きます!
簡単に行けるしアラモアナセンターからなら確実に座れるのでtheBUSで安く行くのオススメです(^ ^)
チェックイン時間が10:15でしたが実際に馬に乗ったのは11:15でした^^;
1時間の間はお土産売り場を見たり、無料でお水も飲み放題なので自然を感じながら待ちました☆
お土産売り場の隣にレストランがあって飲み物もありますし、とにかくハンバーガーがとっっっても美味しいです!ボリューミーなので日本人なら2人で1つでいいかも^^*ご飯を心配してABCストアでサンドイッチ買って行きましたが、飲み物(水)も飲み放題だし美味しいレストランもあるので必要ありませんでした。
馬の近くは糞の臭いがすごいです(笑)
2時間コースを体験しましたが、2時間たっぷり壮大な景色を眺めながら馬に乗りました!
天気も良く本当に気持ちいいです(^ ^)
注意事項としてビデオカメラ、リュックはNGです。ウェストポーチはOKでした。多分ビデオカメラみたいに片手を離してムービー撮影はダメみたいです。自撮り棒を持ってた人はいないので分かりませんが片手がずっとふさがるのでNGだと思います。
スマホを首から下げるのが1番オススメです!腰やお尻のポケットは落ちる可能性があるので気をつけて下さい。写メ撮るのは全然いいですし、ムービーも撮れました!
写真撮る以外は両手で紐を持ってないといけないので(持ってないと不安定)注意してください。
田舎の方だからか、帰りのtheBUSは40~50分に1本ペースなので時間に注意です。あと田舎→中心街へのバスなのでアラモアナセンターに近づくにつれてたくさん人が乗ってくるし1時間半くらいかかりました、何か予定を入れてる方は気をつけて下さい。

Ten years ago, it felt more free, but now it has become more touristy and regulated, and I feel like I have less time to spend freely with the horses. The scenery is nice, but I thought maybe I don't need to go horseback riding here.
10年前に利用した時はもっと自由でしたご、観光地化して、ルール化が進み、馬と自由な時間を過ごせてる気が少なく感じました。
景色はいいけど、ここで乗馬をしなくてもいいかなぉっと思った。

I participated with my 75-year-old mother. Neither my mother nor I understand English at all, but we were able to enjoy ourselves thoroughly. I thought it would have been even more enjoyable if I could understand the guide's explanations about the farm and Hawaii along the way.
75歳の母と2人で参加しました。
母も私も全く英語がわかりませんが、十分楽しむ事ができました。
ガイドが途中、途中で農場やハワイの事など(多分)説明していて英語がわかればもっと楽しめたのになと思いました。

I went horseback riding for the first time!! I was nervous about my English, but I received explanations in Japanese and was able to ride with people from various countries. It was a relaxing one-hour ride, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience.
初めて乗馬をしました!!
英語が不安でしたが日本語のビデオの説明を受け、色々な国の方と一緒に乗馬が出来ました。
のんびり1時間の乗馬でしたが素敵な体験になりました。
