I saw it on the program "Ariyoshi's Summer Vacation in Hawaii," and it was definitely one of the activities I wanted to try. Since my child is still too young to participate in a single-rider vehicle, we signed up for a five-person option.
We participated as a family of four with two children, and we booked two courses for the five-person four-wheeler (one driver and one passenger each). However, upon arrival, we were told to ride in one buggy as a family, and we had to take turns driving. As mentioned in other people's experiences, I wish we had been informed about this in advance. Driving the buggy itself was a lot of fun, but it felt disappointing as it diminished the overall enjoyment.
『有吉の夏休みハワイ』という番組で見て、絶対に参加してみたいアクティビティの一つでした。子供がまだ1人乗りに参加できない年齢なので5名乗りを申し込みました。
子供2人、家族4人での参加で、5名乗り四輪バギーのコースを2つ(運転手1人、同乗者1人をそれぞれ)申し込みましたが、現地では家族なので1台のバギーに乗るように言われ、運転は交代となりました。他の方の体験談にもありましたが、そのようになるのなら事前に言ってほしかったです。バギーの運転自体はとても楽しかったのですが、楽しみ半減という感じで残念でした。

① It was early in the morning, and since I arrived in Honolulu the day before, I confirmed the meeting place the night before. There were many people lined up in the morning, and there were staff members around, so I had no trouble finding it.
② There is quite a wait from arrival until the first activity. However, stretching my legs on the beach in front of the ranch and enjoying the vast scenery made the time fly by.
③ Honestly, I thought it was unnecessary (but since it was included, I went along with it), and surprisingly, it was fun. There were movie sets here as well. Compared to the English guide, the Japanese guide provided less information, and I wished they had studied a bit more.
④ Kualoa Ranch has been the filming location for dozens of movies and dramas. I was amazed from start to finish, thinking, "That scene was here!" The guide was wonderful. It was so much fun!
⑤ It was a buffet-style lunch. The rotisserie chicken was delicious.
⑥ I also thought this was unnecessary, but it might have been the most surprising part. There were movie location remnants here as well, and that scene from Jurassic World comes back to life just as it was in the set.
Next time, I want to book earlier and enjoy horseback riding and ATV tours at Kualoa Ranch.

After getting on the shuttle bus from a nearby meeting point to our accommodation, I woke up to find we had arrived at Kualoa Ranch (laughs). I had heard reviews about the helmets being smelly, so I bought a cap at a 100 yen shop to wear.
We started horseback riding after watching a DVD with Japanese subtitles and receiving a brief explanation. I was a bit worried because the explanation was very simple, but the staff spoke some Japanese and provided polite support, so it was fine.
There was one specialized staff member for about six customers, who guided us while we rode the horses. The weather was great, and riding in such a beautiful setting was truly the best.
Since the riding time was two hours, my friend said they got "bored" halfway through, but I actually enjoyed it so much that I wanted to ride even longer. My friend, who has a weak core, said their lower body was swaying for the entire two hours with the horse's movements, which caused back pain. I recommend being mindful of your core while riding (laughs).
You couldn't bring anything except drinks and your phone while riding, but there are lockers available. Also, photography during the ride is allowed, but videos are not (because focusing on the screen can lead to falling off the horse).
It was fine to film videos as long as you secured a GoPro with a chest mount harness and didn’t focus on the screen. There were props used in movie filming and many great photo spots.
Long horseback rides and the scenery are experiences you can't easily have in Japan, so I'm really glad I went. Highly recommended!!
宿泊先から近い集合場所から送迎のバスに乗り、寝て起きたらクアロアランチ到着(笑)
ヘルメットが臭いという口コミがあったので、100均でキャップを買って行きました。
日本語字幕付きの説明DVDと、簡単な説明を受け乗馬開始。
あまりにも簡単な説明だったので心配になったのですが、スタッフさんは片言ですが日本語を話せて丁寧にサポートしてくれたので、大丈夫でした。
お客さん6人ほどに対して1人、乗馬専門のスタッフさんが担当し、馬に乗って先導してくれます。
天気も良く絶景の中での乗馬は、本当に最高でした。
乗馬時間が2時間もあるので、友人は途中から『飽きた』と言っていましたが、私はむしろもっと乗っていたいと思うほど楽しかったです。
体幹の弱い友人は、馬の動きと一緒に上半身が2時間ずっとユラユラしていたためか、腰が痛くなったそうです。
乗馬中は体幹を意識する事をお勧めします(笑)
乗馬の際は飲み物と携帯以外は持ち込めませんでした。ロッカーがあります。
また、乗馬中の写真撮影はOK、動画はNG(画面を注視すると落馬する危険があるから)
Goproをチェストマウントハーネスで固定して画面を注視しなければ、動画撮影大丈夫でした。
映画撮影で使われた大道具?小道具?が置かれていたり、映える撮影ポイントがたくさんありました。
長時間の乗馬も、景色も、日本ではなかなか体験できないので本当に行って良かったと思います。オススメ!!

I participated in a two-hour horseback riding experience starting at 12:15 PM. It included transportation from the hotel. However, instead of being picked up from the hotel where I stayed, I was instructed to go to one of four designated hotels in Honolulu that were closest to me. It's a good idea to confirm in advance which hotel you need to go to for pickup.
Since there was about an hour of waiting time before the horseback riding, I spent the time visiting souvenir shops and the beach, which was about a five-minute walk away. Before the riding, we received explanations through a Japanese video, so beginners need not worry. There were six participants, all of whom were Japanese, so I think they coordinate that.
The guide who accompanied us during the ride spoke only a little Japanese, just enough to give commands like "Right!" or "Stop!" After two hours of riding, my backside was sore and I had muscle pain, but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, taking in the ocean views and passing by filming locations from Jurassic Park.
After the horseback riding, we waited for about 30 minutes before the bus picked us up and took us back to the same hotel around 3:30 PM. On the way back, there were many people, and we had to wait in line for quite a while to board the bus.
Overall, while the horseback riding tour is a bit pricey, I think it’s a great experience.
12時15分からの二時間の乗馬体験に参加しました。ホテルからの送迎付きでした。ただ宿泊したホテルへ送迎ではなく、ホノルル内では4箇所くらいの決まったホテルのうち近いところを指定されてそこまで自分でいくようになっています。お迎え時にはどのホテルに行かないといけないのか事前によく確認しておいた方がいいです。
乗馬前に一時間ほど待ち時間があったのでお土産屋やビーチ(歩いて5分ほど)までいって時間をつぶしました。
乗馬前には日本語のビデオで説明をうけるので初心者でも心配はいりません。一緒に参加者した人は六人で全員日本人でした。揃えてるんだと思います。乗馬中ついてきてくれたガイドさんは単語だけ少し日本語話せる程度で、右!とか止まって!とか指示をくれます。
二時間の乗馬でお尻は痛くなり筋肉痛になりましたが、海をみたりジュラシックパークの撮影場所を通ったりと見どころたくさんで大変満喫しました。
乗馬の後は30分くらい待ったあとバスで迎えに来たのと同じホテルまで3時30分くらいにつきました。帰りは人が多くてバスに乗るまで列にだいぶ並びました。
そもそも乗馬はツアー代が少し割高ですが、いい体験になると思います。

The horse ate a lot of grass, and even when I pulled the rope, it was strong and didn't listen much, which was tough. Kualoa Ranch was magnificent, and it made us feel small. We chose the two-hour course, but there were no breaks along the way, and my butt and hips hurt, so I ended up walking strangely when I got off (laughs). There was only one guide from overseas, and I thought it would have been nice to have another one.

We booked the 2hr ride which we are glad we did, wished it was longer though we were having so much fun.
Great views of the mountains valley and ocean too!
Be prepared to get dirty on this adventure we had dry dust and we were black . So dont wear white.
They also have a place to eat and shop while you are there.

We participated in horseback riding for the first time as a family of four. I was worried that my 11-year-old daughter, who is small in stature, might not be able to ride alone, but the horses were so well-behaved that no special training was needed. There was no guide for the scenery, so we simply enjoyed the beautiful views while gently riding along on our horses. (They were so calm that I almost dozed off, haha.)
Regarding the reservation, the voucher we received just before our visit was for a 9:30 AM horseback riding session. When we arrived early at the pickup location, we were told that there was no reservation. For some reason, there was a reservation for a ride starting at 12:30 PM instead. They also mentioned that we had the wrong meeting time, which made us quite anxious. However, thanks to the consideration of the ranch staff, we were allowed to take the bus and participate in a farm tour for free to pass the time until lunch. They were very kind to us, and we were able to enjoy a full day of fun.
I guess these things can happen!
家族4人で初めての乗馬に参加しました
娘は11歳で体も小さいので一人で乗れるか心配でしたが、特に練習も必要ないくらいお利口な馬たちでした。

(穏やかすぎてウトウト眠くなるほどでした笑)

何故か12:30からの乗馬に予約がある。。と。

Unfortunately I don’t believe the experience we had was worth the $331 AUD it cost. As my husband and I are big Jurassic Park fans we didn’t want to go all the way from Australia to Hawaii without going to the Ranch. We thought the UTV would be the best experience for us as we don’t like having to be crammed into a bus full of other tourists. The tour started off great driving through the ranch. We drove past a couple of film site locations for other movies/tv shows without stopping at them but as we were there primarily for Jurassic Park it wasn’t a big deal. We made one stop to take pictures which wasn’t any particular movie/tv site, just a picturesque location with the mountains in the background and the water on another side. Our tour guide took our pictures for us with a dinosaur puppet which was a funny experience however, that is as close to anything remotely Jurassic Park related as we then got back into the UTV and drove back to the customer visitors Center without stopping at any other sites on the ranch. We drove past a Jurassic World site but unfortunately our group didn’t stop there like the other groups, we just drove past and as there were rules that you couldn’t stop to take pictures we couldn’t even really get to see much of it. As it was our last day in Hawaii and the main thing we were looking forward to our whole trip it was quite disappointing and the cost of the experience was added salt in the wound. I would recommend when booking any experience to ask for details like which sites you’ll stop at.

I was very satisfied with the horseback riding experience, which allowed me to ride in a more elegant natural setting than the last time I rode for an hour. The horses are very intelligent, so I could mostly leave it to them. I hardly had to use the reins, and I was able to enjoy the scenery safely. I would like to participate again if I have the opportunity.

I had my first horseback riding experience. Since there is no shuttle service, you have to get to Kualoa Ranch on your own, either by rental car or The Bus (public bus). I took the 55 bus from Ala Moana Shopping Center, which took about an hour to get to Kualoa Ranch. If you buy a 1-day pass when you board, you can make the round trip for about $5.50, which is quite affordable, even though it takes some time on the way back. A taxi would likely be very expensive since it's located on the opposite side of Waikiki.
Most of the staff are locals, so you need to communicate in English, but before riding, they show you an instructional video in Japanese, so even if you don't understand English, you can get the basic knowledge of horseback riding in Japanese.
Since it was my first horseback riding experience and I wasn't used to it, I had some painful muscle soreness in my inner thighs afterward, but more than that, I was very satisfied because I could enjoy the magnificent nature at a leisurely pace. I actually wanted to try the ATV experience as well, but it was fully booked, so I hope to try the ATV experience on my next visit to Hawaii.
はじめての乗馬体験をしました。送迎サービスが付いていないためクアロア牧場へは自力で行くしかなくレンタカーで行くかThe Bus(公共バス)で行くしかありません。私はアラモアナショッピングセンターから出ているThe Busの55番バスで1時間くらいかけてクアロア牧場へ行きました。乗るときに1day passを買えば、帰りも時間はかかりますが確か5.5ドルで往復できるのでかなり安く移動できました。タクシーだとおそらくワイキキの反対側にある場所なので、どんでもなく高くついたと思います。
スタッフは殆ど現地の方ばかりなので英語でやりとりしなければなりませんが、乗馬前に日本語のインストラクトビデオを見せてもらえるので、もし英語が分からなくても乗馬の基礎知識は日本語で得られます。
はじめての乗馬体験で慣れていなかったため、終わった後内股の筋肉痛が辛かったですが、それ以上に雄大な自然の中をゆっくり楽しめたので大満足でした。本当はバギー体験もしたかったのですが、満席という事で予約が取れなかったので、次回ハワイ訪問時はバギー体験をしてみたいです。

The horses walk nicely, allowing us to ride for two hours while leisurely enjoying the scenery. At one point, when we fell behind, the guide gave the horse a little tap on the rear to speed up, which added a bit of thrill and was fun. There was a foreign participant at the front, and the guide was explaining something in English for them, but we couldn't understand. Since we walked in a line, it was also quite difficult to have conversations with my companions, making the activity feel somewhat lacking. The guide didn't engage us as much as on the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland; it felt more like riding through It's a Small World, just looking around. We walked mostly through the forest or among the trees, so there wasn't much concern about sunburn or heat. I've written quite a few negative things, but I think it's a good experience for horseback riding since it's not easy to ride alone for a long time in Japan. Overall, it's a nice tour for enjoying the scenery and the pleasant breeze while riding a horse.
お馬さんが良い子に歩いてくれるので、2時間ひたすら馬に乗ってゆっくり景色を楽しむ、という感じです。
途中、遅れを取った時にガイドの方が馬のお尻をちょっと叩いて駆け足になる、という場面があり、そこは少しスリルを感じられて楽しかったです。
先頭に外国人の参加者がいたので、その方たち向け?に英語で何か説明してたのですが、
私たちには分からず…
一列で並んで歩くので、同行者との会話もなかなか難しく、アクティビティとしては物足りなさを感じました。
ディズニーランドのジャングルクルーズぐらいガイドさんが盛り上げてくれるわけではなく、
スモールワールドくらい、乗り物に乗ってひたすら周りを眺めるという感じです。
森?木々の中を歩くことが多いので、日焼けや灼熱の心配はさほど要らないです。
マイナスな事を書きすぎましたが、
手綱を持たれる事なく一人で長い時間の乗馬は日本ではなかなか出来ないと思うので、
乗馬経験としては良かったし、馬に乗ってゆっくり景色や気持ち良い風を楽しむ、ということでは良いツアーだと思います。

I participated in a 2-hour course with my family (two adults and one 15-year-old child). We watched a 5-minute video in Japanese before starting the horseback riding. There were about five people in our group. The guide spoke only in English, but gave directions in Japanese, so there were no particular issues.
Since I was far from the guide, I couldn't understand the explanation of the course at all, but the horse was calm and walked slowly, allowing us to enjoy the best views. (It felt more like being taken on a ride to enjoy the scenery rather than actual horseback riding.)
I experienced some knee pain, possibly due to the equipment not fitting properly, but I highly recommend this activity. There were various courses available at the ranch, but I think this one is the best for enjoying the scenery at a leisurely pace.

I enjoy horseback riding. I was looking forward to an outdoor ride visiting filming locations, but there was no explanation of the scenery, and we just passed by the photo spots. The young female instructor was unfriendly and didn't say a word. It was supposed to be a two-hour course, but we returned in just a little over an hour. When I experienced it in Canada, it was fun, so I was expecting something similar, but it was quite different. I won't participate again. The filming locations weren't that wonderful either. The photos in the guide are overly polished.

I read that I could choose from several tours at Kualoa, so I thought that was the case when I signed up. However, by the time we departed, the tour I was participating in and its order were already decided.
It mentioned that water activities were an option, so I brought my swimsuit, but I couldn't use it at all, and it just became extra baggage... I was disappointed. The instructions said to wear long pants and athletic shoes, so I went in long pants in the heat, but I was one of the few participants dressed that way. I wonder if they didn't mention this when booking through other channels besides VELTRA? The long pants were hot, and I wanted to change.
The tour was supposed to start at 9:15, but the meeting time was 6:50, the bus arrived at 7:00, and we got to Kualoa Ranch at 8:00... Honestly, having to wait for almost an hour with not many places to sit was quite tedious, especially if you have small children. I would have preferred to let them sleep for another hour before participating.
I understand that the weather can be unstable in the mountains, but with the heavy rain pouring down, the bus was soaked through the windows, and there were leaks. I think they should at least provide simple ponchos or raincoats as a service.
I was honestly taken aback when they told us to get on the bus back to Waikiki immediately while it was raining heavily. At that rate, the photos we bought will be ruined by the rain.
クアロアについてから、いくつかのツアーの中から選べるような説明が書いてあったので、そう思って参加したのですが、出発する時点で既に参加するツアーも順番も決まっていました。
ウォーターアクティビディも選択肢にあるように書いてあったので水着を持って行っていましたが、全く使えずただの荷物に。。がっかりしました。
荷物には、長ズボンと運動靴と書いてあったので、暑い中長ズボンで行きましたが、そんな格好で行ったのは参加者のうちでわずか。。VELTRA経由でないときはそんなこと書いてなかったのかな?長ズボンは暑くて着替えたかったです。
ツアー開始が9:15だったのに、朝の集合時間は6:50、バスが来たのは7:00、クアロアランチに着いたのは8:00。。あまり座るところもない中、正直開始まで1時間もあるのはかなり持て余します。小さい子供と行く場合はなおさらです。あと1時間寝てから参加させてあげたかったです。。
山なので天候が不安定なのは分かりますが、ザーザーぶりの雨で、バスは窓からビチョビチョ、雨漏りもするのであれば、簡単なポンチョやレインコートを配るくらいのサービスはして欲しいです。
雨が最高に強く降っている中、ワイキキに戻るバスにいますぐ乗ってと言われたのには正直引きました、、あれじゃ買った写真も雨でダメになりますよ。

I was walking at the front, but it was very reassuring because the trained horse was steering. It seemed like it was going to get hot, so I prepared a hat, but I didn't need it since I wore a helmet. Next, I want to try the buggy experience.
By the way, I left Waikiki two hours before my reservation time, but there was a major traffic jam due to road construction, and I ended up arriving at the ranch just 15 minutes before my appointment. While stuck in traffic, I was anxious and frustrated, not knowing what was happening and whether I would make it on time.
先頭を歩いていましたが、訓練された馬が舵を取ってくますのでとても安心です。暑くなりそうでしたので、帽子も用意しておきましたが、ヘルメットをかぶるので必要ありませんでした。次はバギーを体験したいです。
余談ですが、ワイキキを予約時間の2時間前に出たのですが、道路工事で大渋滞しており、15分前に牧場に着いた次第です。渋滞中で車が動かない時は、何がおきているのか分からず、間に合うかどうか心配、イライラでした。

There were so many horses and single-rider buggies that we couldn't make a reservation, so we participated in a five-person buggy with four people. But it was so much fun! The magnificent scenery and the views I had seen in movies were exciting. As we went further in, the temperature dropped and the air changed. It was an hour full of excitement!
馬も1人乗りバギーもいっぱいで予約出来ず、5人乗りバギーを4人で参加。でもこれがとても楽しかった!壮大な景色と映画で観たことのある景色に興奮。奥に行くにつれ、気温も下がり、空気が変わる。常にワクワクの1時間でした

I was relieved that I could learn how to operate the buggy in Japanese, so I felt comfortable driving. However, the tour guide spoke in English, so unfortunately, I couldn't understand what was being said.
Still, the scenery was amazing, and I was able to visit filming locations from movies, which was enjoyable. I think those who love off-roading will definitely have a great time.
The two hours flew by.
バギーの操作の仕方は日本語バージョンで聞くことができたので安心してドライブできました。しかし、ツアー中のガイドは英語でしたので残念ながら聞き取ることができませんでした。
それでも景色は最高だし、映画のロケ地もめぐることができ、楽しめることはできました。オフロードが好きな方も十分楽しめると思います。
あっという間の2時間でした。

I experienced a 2-hour horseback riding course. There were Japanese staff members, which made everything smooth! Although there was some waiting time, I felt reassured because I could watch a Japanese explanation video before riding. Aside from getting caught in a downpour, it was really great! I was soaked, and it felt a bit like saying goodbye just like that, which was a little disappointing. The scenery was beautiful, and I had a lot of fun!
2時間コースの乗馬を体験しました。日本人従業員もいらっしゃり、スムーズでした!
待ち時間はありましたが、日本語の説明動画も見て乗馬することができたので安心!
途中でスコールに合うこと以外は本当によかった!
びしょびしょで、、、そのままはいさようならって感じだったのがちょっと、、って感じではありました。
景色も良くたのしかったです!

I participated with my child. I was relieved that there was an explanation in Japanese. Since the purpose was to tour movie filming locations, the guide was also very engaging, and my child, who was hot and tired, was very satisfied. Thank you very much.

I participated in the movie location tour, jungle experience tour, and Taste of Farm tour. I signed up mainly for the movie location tour, so I learned about the other tours and details on the day, but there was no confusion, and I was able to participate with explanations in Japanese for everything.
I recommend sitting on the right side of the bus for the movie location tour, as most of the sights are concentrated on that side. I joined to see the filming locations of Jurassic Park and Jurassic World, and in that regard, I found the jungle tour to be more fulfilling and enjoyable than the location tour. The jungle tour was exciting, and I think those with strong hearts will really enjoy it.
The lunch buffet was included, but honestly, the quality was lacking, and I was concerned about hygiene. There were a lot of flies in the dining area, so I think it's better to eat on the terrace. However, aside from the buffet, there were only places like a café terrace for dining, so it seems better to include the buffet to enjoy a longer meal.
The afternoon Taste of Farm tour wasn't very interesting, but overall, I think it was a very fulfilling tour. I didn't participate in horseback riding, buggies, or zip-lining this time, but they looked really fun to watch. If I have the opportunity to go again, I would like to experience those activities.
This time, I was picked up near Ala Moana Center, which was very convenient. It was only after going that I realized how difficult it would be to go on my own. Joining the tour is definitely the way to go, and after arriving, the Japanese staff kindly explained the schedule, which was reassuring.
映画ロケ地ツアー、ジャングル体験ツアー、テイストオブファームツアーに参加しました。
映画ロケ地ツアーを目当てに申し込んだので、それ以外のツアーや詳細は当日知りましたが、混乱もなく、全て日本語の説明付きで参加することができました。
映画ロケ地ツアーは、バスの右手側に座ることをオススメします。(バスの右手側ばかりに見たいものが集中しているため)
ジュラシックパーク、ジュラシックワールドのロケ地を見たくて参加したのですが、その点で言えば、ロケ地ツアーより、ジャングルツアーの方が充実していて楽しかったです。ジャングルのツアーは走行もエキサイティングで、心臓の強い方はとても楽しめると思います。
ランチバイキングがついていましたが、正直内容はイマイチで衛生面も気になりました。食堂内は物凄くハエがうるさいので、テラスで食事された方がいいと思います。ただ、バイキング以外はカフェテラス??的なところしか食事場所がないので、バイキングをつけておいた方が長く楽しむには良いように思いました。
午後のテイスト〜ツアーは、あまり面白くなかったですが、全体を通して、とても充実したツアーだったと思います。
今回は乗馬やバギー、ジップラインに参加しませんでしたが、乗馬やバギーは見ていて本当に楽しそうでした。次行く機会があればそちらを体験したいです。
今回はアラモアナセンター付近で送迎してもらい、とても便利でした。行ってみて初めて、これは自力で行くのはあまりに難儀、と思いました。ツアーに参加されるのが間違いないですし、到着後も日本人スタッフさんが丁寧に日程説明してくださり安心です。

It was a wonderful two hours! If you've ever ridden a horse, I highly recommend the two-hour ocean and mountain course! If it's your very first time, you might be too scared and nervous to enjoy the scenery, but if you have some experience, this is the best recommendation on Oahu. Definitely give it a try!
素晴らしい二時間でした❗馬に一度でも乗ったこと有る方なら迷わず二時間海山コースにしてください❗全く初めてなら、怖さと緊張で景色を見る余裕が無いかもですけど、乗ったこと有るからならオアフ島では一番のお勧めです。是非是非経験して下さい❗

I had always wanted to visit Kualoa Ranch. I wasn't very experienced with horseback riding, and I was worried about the guide speaking English, but it turned out fine! Before riding, we watched an explanation video in Japanese. There was no waiting time at all, and we could get on the horses right away after arriving. The horse I rode was a bit free-spirited and sometimes moved on its own, but it was very well-behaved and walked slowly along the designated path. I had the experience of realizing that Hawaii is not just about the ocean! You can ride a horse through a place that feels like stepping into a movie world! It was so much fun!\(^o^)/ I was disappointed that I didn't have enough time to try the ranch's hamburger (laughs).
1度は行ってみたかったクアロア牧場。
乗馬も大して慣れていないし、ガイドも英語ということで不安でしたが大丈夫でした!
乗馬の前に日本語の説明ビデオが見れます。
待ち時間も全くなく着いたらすぐ馬に乗れる感じでした。
私が乗った馬はちょっと自由な子で勝手に動いてしまうときもありましたが、とってもお利口できちんと決まった道をゆっくりと歩いてくれました。
ハワイは海だけじゃないんだ!という体験ができました。
映画の世界に入り込んだような場所を馬に乗って歩けます!
楽しかったです\(^o^)/
時間が足りなくて牧場のハンバーガーが食べれなかったのが残念でした(笑)
