The weather was unfortunately bad, but I was satisfied with all three courses.
The movie location tour was especially enjoyable, with the guide's stories being fun, and I loved taking photos with the dinosaur figures. I was thrilled to see the set of my favorite show, Five-O.
The jungle experience tour only had an English-speaking guide, but they explained things clearly, so I understood somewhat. They also spoke a bit of Japanese here and there.
On the boat tour, we were able to see the mountain range from the water, and when we went out to sea, the waves were strong, making the boat rise and fall like a theme park attraction, which was fun.
I was really glad they provided motion sickness medication, as all the rides had quite a bit of shaking, which was a big help.
I booked at the last minute, so this was the only tour available, but I would like to participate in horseback riding next time. It seemed that people in the horseback riding group were buying a locker key for $5 to store their belongings. It looks like it's better to go light.
生憎の天気だったのですが、3つのコース全て満足しました。
特に映画ロケ地ツアーのコースはガイドさんの話が楽しく、恐竜の人形とともに写真を撮ってくれたのがよかったです。
大好きなFive-Oのセットも見れて、感激です。
ジャングル体験のツアーは、英語ガイドさんのみでしたが、わかりやすく話してくれたので、
なんとなくはわかりました。
ところどころ日本語も話してくれました。
ボートのツアーは、水上からあの山並みを見ることができ、
沖に出ると波がきつくて、船が上下するのも遊園地のアトラクションのごとく楽しめました。
あると良いもので酔い止めの薬を書いておいてくださって本当によかったです。
どれもこれも結構な揺れを伴う乗り物だったので、助かりました。
間際に予約したのでこのツアーしか空きがなく、
今度は乗馬に参加したいです。
乗馬組の人は、荷物を預けるロッカーのキーを5ドルで買っているようでした。

Until now, my trips to Hawaii have mainly focused on snorkeling tours and the ocean, but the magnificent Kualoa Ranch was full of mountain attractions. The jeep tour only provides guidance in English, so I was worried due to mixed reviews, but the scenery was beautiful and it was thrilling, allowing me to enjoy it even without fully understanding English. For those who haven't been yet, you might discover something new in Hawaii. Horseback riding and ATV tours were also popular.
Options can be selected on the bus on the day of the tour, but there are some options that cannot be chosen on Sundays and holidays, so I think it's important to be aware of that.
今までシュノーケリングツアー等、海がメインのハワイ旅行でしたが、壮大なクアロア牧場は山の魅力が盛りだくさんでした。ジープツアーは英語での案内のみなので口コミでは賛否両論あり心配していましたが、景色も綺麗で、またスリルもあり私は英語を十分理解できなくても楽しめました。まだ行ったことない方は、是非ハワイの新たな発見ができるかもしれません。乗馬とバギーも人気でした。
オプションは当日のバスの中で選択するのですが、日曜、祝日には選べないオプションがあり、そこは気を付けた方が良いとおもいます。

My husband and I enjoyed the time we spent at the Open Palm Plantation. Upon our arrival we were taken back as to just how beautiful this place was. Lush greenery, a display of beautiful Hawaaian flowers, a gorgeous mountain view and a 2 1/2 acre ranch with horses that made this the picture perfect.
Kitty is a gracious host and was very knowledgeable to the area and shared some of her favorite restaurants in her book of goodies. Our favorites restaurants were: Over Easy and Hailewa Joes!
The distance from her place to Waikiki was a bit of a drive but the scenery in all directions was well worth the trip! If you want a great adventure whether it be just then two of you or a family getaway, you won't be disappointed!

I participated in a half-day tour riding a four-wheeler. It's not often that you get the chance to ride a four-wheeler, and being able to do it in Kualoa is really exciting. You can experience a jungle tour and a movie filming spot tour, all in one, which makes it a great tour. I accidentally left my video camera on the bus on the way back, but they handled it well, and I got it back safely. I highly recommend it!
四輪バギーに乗る、半日ツアーに参加しました。
普段四輪バギーにのる機会もなかなか無いのに、それがクアロアの中で出来るんですから、テンション上がりますね。

帰りにうっかりビデオカメラをバスに忘れてしまったのですが、しっかり対応してくれて、無事に返ってきました。おすすめですよ!

When you think of Oahu, you probably picture Waikiki Beach and the surrounding resorts, creating a strong image of the ocean. However, if you venture an hour outside of Waikiki, you'll encounter a different space at Kualoa Ranch. I've been to Hawaii many times, but I only knew the typical tourist spots. The mountains are towering and incredibly beautiful! You can enjoy activities like horseback riding and ATV rides, making it fun for both adults and children, so definitely give it a try!
オアフと言えばワイキキビーチに周辺のリゾートを思い浮かべ海のイメージが強いと思いますが

While we had fun, there were a few issues that made this an average excursion:
- they did not provide goggles as indicated. They are definitely needed. Even with my sunglasses on, the amount of dirt that got in my eyes made it difficult to see. It was painful.
- we stopped at 1 movie site.
- an hour is not enough time.
- you get pretty dirty. Don't wear a light color. I'm still trying to get dirt stains out of my shirt.
Maybe there's limits because of the size of the multi passenger vehicle. Based on the description on the site, we expected more. The people on the single rider ATVs looked like they had a lot of fun.
We would go again after my daughter is old enough for the single rider ATVs

I wanted to visit the filming location of Jurassic Park, so I joined a two-hour tour starting at 11:00. The views of the mountains, grasslands, and the beautiful ocean were absolutely wonderful.
The horses were very well trained and took us on a leisurely stroll. Our group consisted of six people: my husband and I, one Japanese woman, and a family of three from Australia, along with one female staff member.
Perhaps because there were many Japanese tourists, the riding staff spoke a minimal amount of Japanese (like "danger," "please go right/left," "straight," etc.), so I think even those who are not good at English will manage.
I was told that we couldn't take any bags while riding, so I didn't bring my smartphone, but I regretted that decision. I thought if I had brought it with a strap around my neck, I could have easily taken photos with one hand. (It’s okay to hold the smartphone with one hand for photos, but you must hold the reins with the other hand, or you’ll quickly be warned in broken Japanese with "danger.")
Right after we started our walk, the staff took individual photos for us, but they cost $15 each. Since they were printed quickly, the quality wasn't great. I hesitated for a moment about buying one since I didn’t take any photos while riding, but ultimately decided against it.
For our belongings, we received a key for a coin locker ($5 each) at the ticket office, but when we arrived, all the lockers were already full, so they kindly stored our things for free in a room at the ticket office.
There were also souvenirs, a food court, and a smoking area. I bought half a papaya ($2) from the food court's refrigerator, which was ready to eat, and it was perfectly ripe and delicious after the ride!
Fortunately, we had great weather and enjoyed ourselves, but even with the 11:00 start, it was a bit hot walking in the sun on the grasslands without shade (though there were occasional shaded spots that felt nice and cool). A sun visor, hat, and sunglasses are essential, and make sure to wear a hat that won't blow away in the wind.
If you're driving from Waikiki, I highly recommend bringing a swimsuit and towel. The ocean below while riding was truly beautiful, and I wished I could stop by the beach on the way back! There were several families playing at the beach, though I'm not sure if they were locals. However, please be cautious as the waves can be quite strong; while bodyboarding might be fun, just floating around isn't advisable.
This tour is really a slow stroll, so it might be a bit lacking for experienced riders (intermediate or advanced). I thought maybe a one-hour course would be fine next time, but after swaying on the horse's back for two hours, I felt very relaxed and even a bit sleepy towards the end. I recommend the two-hour course for a leisurely and relaxing experience.
P.S. I didn't have much muscle soreness the next day.
ジュラシックパークの撮影場所まで行ってみたくて、11:00からの2時間コースに参加しましたが、山と草原、素晴らしい海も見えて、とっても良かったです。
お馬さん達はとても良くトレーニングされており、ゆっくりパカパカお散歩してくれました。
私たち夫婦の他に日本人女性1名、オーストラリアからのご家族3名の合計6名で1グループとなり、女性のスタッフ1名が同行されました。
日本人の観光客が多いからか、乗馬のスタッフの方々は必要最低限の日本語(あぶない、右へ/左へ行ってください、まっすぐ、等)を話しましたので、英語が苦手な方でもなんとかなるとは思います。
乗馬の際、荷物は持って行けないとのことでしたので、スマホも携帯しませんでしたが、持って行けばよかったと後悔しました。ポケットから落としたりしたらいけませんので、首からストラップをかけてスマホを持って行けば、さっと片手で写真撮影できたな、と思いました。
(片手でスマホを持ち写真撮影はOKとのこと、もう片方の手は必ず手綱を持っていないとすぐにカタコト日本語で「あぶなぁい」と注意されます。)
お散歩スタート直後に、牧場のスタッフが一人ずつ写真を撮ってくれますが、1枚15ドルでした。当然スピード印刷ですので、画質はよくありません。乗馬中の写真はひとつも撮らなかったので、一瞬買おうかと迷いましたが、やめておきました。
荷物は、チケットオフィスでコインロッカー(1つ5ドル)の鍵をもらい、すぐ近くにあるロッカーに保管出来ますが、我々が行った時にはロッカーはすでに満杯で、チケットオフィスのお部屋で無料で預かってくれました。
お土産やフードコート、喫煙所もありました。フードコートの冷蔵庫に、すぐに食べられる状態のパパイヤ半分(2ドル)が売られていたので乗馬後に頂きましたが、ちょうど食べごろでとっても美味しかったです!
ありがたいことにお天気に恵まれ、楽しめましたが、11:00スタートでも木陰がない草原を歩いている時は日が当たって少し暑かったです(でもちょこちょこ木陰があり、そこは涼しくて気持ちよかったです)。サンバイザーや帽子、サングラスは必須です、風がありますので、飛ばされないような帽子をどうぞ。
ワイキキから車で行かれる方は、是非水着とタオルを持って行かれたら良いと思います。
乗馬中に眼下に広がる海は本当にとてもきれいで、帰りにビーチに寄りたかった!!!と思いました。地元の方々なのか分かりませんが、ビーチで遊んでいる家族連れが何組かいらっしゃいました。但し、波が結構ありますので、ボディボード等はとても楽しいかと思いますが、ぷかぷか浮かんで遊ぶ、というのには不向きですのでご注意ください。
このコースは本当にゆっくりお散歩なので、乗馬経験者(中級、上級者)には物足りないかもしれません。
次は1時間コースでもいいかな、と思いましたが、2時間もお馬さんの背中に揺られてお散歩したら、後半はとってもリラックスして眠くなったほどです。
ゆったりとリラックスには2時間コースはおすすめです。
PS:翌日の筋肉痛はたいしてありませんでした。

Zipline crew was amazing. Tip: bring your tip. You leave almost everything at the lockers before you go out so I didn't have a tip for the girls that were our guides. They were awesome, always positive, on their game. The landscape plus flying through the air was something I'll never forget. We were so happily surprised by the meal. Not fancy, just so yummy. I think it was the best we had our whole trip to Oahu and we were there for 13 days. Secret Island was fun even though it was a bit chilly and overcast. We went out on a complimentary boat ride with a glass bottom, saw some turtles. Since it's on the Windward side of the island which has more rain and weather, I might have skipped the island (which is not really an island).

I actually wanted to experience the buggy ride and horseback riding, but unfortunately, the day I planned was fully booked.

On the cruise, I was able to see swimming sea turtles in the distance, and during the movie tour, I enjoyed the beautiful and lively Japanese guide's easy-to-understand explanations while riding in a quirky, vintage bus and taking in the great outdoors. The jungle tour allowed me to ride in a Swiss military jeep and experience the impressive driving of a local handsome guide while enjoying the stunning views of Hawaii. The food, however, was not something I could honestly say was delicious. Next time, I’d like to challenge myself with the buggy ride or horseback riding!

I booked this tour without pickup since I drove around the island with a rental car. One hour was just right. Riding the horse was refreshing, and I was satisfied with the view, including the Chinese hats.
I gave it 4 stars because the instructor was kind and friendly, but it could have been more fun with some conversation or singing to liven things up. Just riding the horse in a monotonous way can get a bit boring. There was no pressure to buy photos, and it was a gentlemanly ranch. I recommend it.

We went to Hawaii for our honeymoon, and it was our first time trying horseback riding. I had always wanted to try riding, but I was hesitant to jump into multiple activities for several hours, so I booked just a one-hour horseback riding course.
One of my biggest concerns for this honeymoon was that we chose a course at Kualoa Ranch, which is quite far from Waikiki, and it didn't include transportation, so I wasn't sure how to get there. For those in the same situation, here are some tips:
1. Take the number 55 bus, which runs once an hour from Ala Moana Center. (You can check the bus schedule using the DaBus app.)
2. Get off at KAMEHAMEHA HWY + OPP KUALOA RANCH. (There are several bus stops with KUALOA in the name, so be careful not to get off at the wrong one.)
3. Right in front of you as you get off is the entrance to Kualoa Ranch.
For the return trip, there is a bus stop on the opposite side of the road, so I recommend taking the bus back to Ala Moana Center. It took just a little over an hour by bus from Ala Moana Center.
Finally, when it was time for horseback riding, the horses were prepared for the women first. As my wife got on her horse and waited, her horse was already a bit restless. When I got on my horse next to hers, it seemed that our horses didn't get along and started to fight, which scared my wife and almost made her want to quit. However, after changing her horse, we were able to set off.
After that, both my horse and my wife's horse calmed down, and we enjoyed an hour of riding. (My wife was too nervous to fully enjoy the scenery, though...) Just as I was getting comfortable with riding, the hour was up, and I wished there had been a 90-minute option available.
Kualoa Ranch itself is a beautiful and pleasant place, so I would like to try other activities there next time.
ハネムーンでお互い初めてハワイに行き、初めての乗馬に挑戦でした。
乗馬は1度してみたかったけど、あんまりガッツリ何時間も、いくつものアクティビティにいきなり挑戦するのは気が引けたので、とりあえず乗馬だけ1時間のコースを予約していきました。
実は今回のハネムーンで一番気がかりだったことがこのクアロア牧場で、ワイキキから結構遠い所にあるのに、送迎が付いていないコースを選択したため、そもそもどう行っていいか分かりませんでした。
同じ方は結構居るようなので、参考までに記載しますと、
1.アラモアナ・センターから1時間に1本ペースで出ている55番バスに乗ります。
(バスの時間はDaBusのアプリなどで調べると良いです)
2.KAMEHAMEHA HWY+OPP KUALOA RANCH で降ります。
(手前にKUALOAと付くバス停が何個かあるのでお間違えなく)
3.降りてすぐ目の前にクアロア牧場の入口があります。
帰りも反対車線の所にバス停があるので、そこから乗ってアラモアナ・センターまで帰るのが良いと思います。(バスでアラモアナ・センターから1時間ちょっとでした)
いよいよ乗馬となってまずは、女性から先にお馬さんが用意されて案内されていきました。
嫁さんの馬も用意されて乗っかり待っていると、その状態から既にお馬さんが少し暴れていて、私もお馬さんに乗り隣に着いたら、今度は私の馬と嫁さんの馬の相性が合わないらしく喧嘩しだしてしまい、嫁さんが怖がりリタイアしかけましたが、嫁さんのお馬さんを変更してもらいどうにか出発できました。
その後私のお馬さんも嫁さんのお馬さんもおとなしく1時間の乗馬を楽しむことが出来ました。
(嫁さんは緊張しすぎて景色を楽しむまではいけなかったようですが。。。)
私も乗馬に十分慣れてきたところで1時間の乗馬が終わってしまったので、出来たら90分とかのコースがあったらよかったです。
このクアロア牧場自体がとても綺麗な場所で気持ち良い場所だったので、今度は乗馬以外のものもトライしてみたいと思います。

I booked the one-hour course due to time constraints and a question about whether I would be driving the buggy for two hours.
Driving the buggy might require some getting used to at first, but I don't think it's particularly difficult. Instead of using a throttle, you push a lever located where the throttle is, which acts as the accelerator. Those who are used to motorcycles might feel a bit of discomfort. However, you'll get used to it quickly. I was told we would have a trial run at first, but before I knew it, I was on the main course. This means that very few people probably drop out or are forced to drop out.
If you wear your own sunglasses or regular glasses, it seems you don't need to wear the provided sunglasses. Since we are driving off-road, as long as your eyes are protected, that should be sufficient.
We drive through winding off-road paths and cross streams, going through places like the ones shown in the photos. If you have the time, you can enjoy the scenery while driving. However, since the basic premise is to maintain the formation, if you focus too much on that, you might miss some sights. It would be nice to have some extra driving comfort.
The reason I deducted one star is that compared to the two-hour course, there are fewer places to stop. This is obvious, but (laughs). We just passed by places like the dinosaur footprints and spots that seemed to be used in Top Gun. I had some prior information, so I was able to see those, but my friend who came with me seemed to miss them and looked a bit disappointed.
If you have the stamina and time, and are also interested in the movie world, the two-hour course might be recommended. I wasn't that familiar with it, so I enjoyed the one-hour course.
It's reassuring that the guide is Japanese.
1時間コースと2時間コースがあったので、時間の都合上と、
2時間もバギーを運転するの?という疑問があったので、
1時間コースで予約しました。
バギーの運転は最初はコツがいるかもしれませんが、
特に難しいものではないと思います。
スロットルではなく、スロットルのところについているレバーを押すとアクセルという感じです。バイクとかで慣れている人は少し違和感があるかもしれないですね。
でも、すぐ慣れます。最初お試しで走るって言われたんですが、
気付けば本コースに入ってたようです。
つまりは基本ドロップアウトする人・させられる人はほとんどいないんでしょうね。
自前のサングラスや普通のメガネをしていれば、
用意されたサングラスはしなくていいようです。
とりあえず、オフロードを走るので、目が保護されてればいいようなので。
オフロードをくねくね走り、小川も超えて、
写真にもあるようなところを走ります。余裕があれば景色を十分堪能しながら走れます。
ただ、基本隊列を乱さず走ることが前提なので、そこに意識集中していると、
見逃すこともあるかも。運転に余裕があるといいですよね。
ただ、星を一つ減らしたのは、
2時間コースとくらべて、立ち寄れる場所が少ないこと。
当たり前ですが(笑)
途中恐竜の足あとのところや、トップガン?で使われたようなとことか?
完全に横を通り過ぎただけです。
自分はある程度事前情報があったので、それを見れたのですが、
一緒に来ていた友人は気づかずスルーしたみたいで、少し残念そうでした。
体力と時間があって、映画の世界にも興味が深いようなら、
2時間コースがおすすめかもしれないですね。
俺はそこまで詳しくなかったので、1時間で楽しめました。
ガイドも日本人の方が案内してくれるので、安心です。

Great tour! If you're only doing the one activity at the ranch, be sure to check what time your activity starts and finishes, you might want to catch the bus or drive yourself. saves you waiting around for hours for the first shuttle bus back to Waikiki.
The actual tour itself was really fun and well run! I would highly recommend

I participated in three activities: a movie location tour for about 1.5 hours, a jungle tour for about 1.5 hours, and a cruise. While I thought the jungle tour was somewhat lacking in the jungle experience, we did climb Triangle Mountain by jeep during the movie location tour, and at the end, we walked up a mountain path of about 10 meters. We could stop the car along the way to enjoy the scenery, but the view after the hike was truly beautiful. Since it was cloudy that day, I felt it was better to do the cruise for about 1.5 hours instead of spending three hours playing at Secret Island. We left Kualoa Ranch at 2:30 PM and were back at the hotel by 4 PM. Although it was an early morning, I think it was a recommended tour.
映画ロケ地めぐり約1.5時間、ジャングルツアー約1.5時間、クルーズの3種類に参加しました。ジャングルツアーはジャングルとは言えずそこそこかな〜とは思いますが、映画ロケ地めぐりで見た三角山にジープで登り、最後は10m位の山道を徒歩で登りました。途中でも車を止めて景色を見れますが、ブチハイキングの後に見た景色はとても美しかったです。当日は曇っていたのでシークレットアイランドで遊ぶ3時間よりクルーズ約1.5時間にしてよかったと思いました。
14:30にクアロア牧場を出て、16時にはホテルにいました。朝は早いけどオススメツアーだと思いまさした。
