I rode a horse for the first time. I was scared because it was such a big animal, but by the end, I was able to pet its neck and nose. The scenery was also wonderful, making it a great memory. I couldn't have a proper lunch. You need to put your belongings in a locker. Only credit cards are accepted. After riding for a full two hours, I was a bit tired. I highly recommend it!
はじめてお馬さんに乗りました。
こんな大きな動物ははじめてで怖かったのですが、最後は首や鼻を撫でられるようになりました。景色も素晴らしく良い思い出です。昼食は満足に取れません。手荷物はロッカーに入れる必要があります。クレカしか使えません。2時間たっぷり乗って少々疲れました。是非是非おすすめです。

I did a 2-hour horseback riding tour at Kualoa Ranch (with transportation included). Upon arrival, everything was in English for check-in and facility guidance. I had a reservation at 12:00 and arrived around 11:30, where I received a general briefing before heading to each activity. They advised us to arrive at least 15 minutes early, and if you were even a little late, they would start without waiting. Before that, I was told to put my backpack and other belongings in a locker, but the available lockers were broken and empty... With only five minutes left until the meeting time, I was anxious, but I explained the situation to the staff who gave the briefing and was able to hand my things directly to them. I accidentally left my valuables inside, which worried me, but they were returned safely after the tour. There is a small pouch holder on the horse's saddle, so you can put a small pouch (about the size of a sacoche) and water there. Having a strap to hang your smartphone on your shoulder makes it easy to take photos. The guide spoke English but also made an effort to communicate in broken Japanese, which was nice. The sunlight was incredibly strong, so I should have worn a long-sleeve shirt. It was scorching. Overall, it was a great experience to enjoy the stunning scenery for a relaxed two hours!
クアロアランチで2時間の乗馬(送迎付き)をしました。現地に到着し、全て英語での案内でチェックインや施設の案内があります。12:00からの予約で、11:30ごろ到着し、全体説明を受けてから、各アクティビティー先へ行きます。15分前には必ず行くように言われ、少しでも遅れたら待たずに開始するとのこと。その前に、乗馬はバックパックなどの荷物はロッカーへ入れるように言われましたが、利用可能なロッカーが故障していて空いていなく…、集合まであと5分しか時間がなく焦りましたが、説明を受けたスタッフに事情を説明して直接預けました。うっかり貴重品も入れたままで、ずっと気がかりでしたが終了後に無事に返してもらえました。馬のサドルにかける小物入れがあるので、そこに小さいポーチ(サコッシュ程度の大きさ)や水は入れられます。スマホは肩にかけられるストラップがあると撮影しやすく便利です。ガイドは英語ですが、片言で日本語で声掛けしたり気を使ってくれて感じの良いスタッフでした。日差しが半端なく強いので、長袖を羽織るべきでした。じりじりします。総合的に絶景をゆったり2時間堪能できて良い経験になりました!

I read in a review that the wait time for the shuttle bus is long, so I took an Uber instead. It cost about $50 one way. It was great to get there and back quickly!
It cost $5 to store my luggage in a locker, but they only accepted Visa or MasterCard! Since I only had an American Express card and cash, I consulted with the staff, and they were able to help me.
The scenery was very beautiful, and the horses were adorable, making it an unforgettable experience! Important instructions were given in Japanese, such as "Please go right" and "Kick! Kick!" I would love to experience it again.

During the activity, the staff took photos for us, but when I received them via email, the image quality was poor, making it difficult to recognize faces, which was disappointing. Maybe it was because I was using an Android? However, after returning to my home country, I received high-quality photos.
At first, it felt like we were walking among the trees, which made the time seem a bit long, but once we reached the area where we could see the ocean, the scenery was beautiful and refreshing. The footprints of Godzilla and the canyon from Jurassic Park were particularly impressive. I could see a line of 4WD vehicles from other tours, which looked just like a scene from the Jurassic movie.
For safety reasons, video recording was not allowed, but taking photos was fine. We were allowed to bring about two small bags. Larger items should be stored in lockers or the vehicle. It might be good to have a small bottle of water with you.
After returning to Japan, I really wanted high-quality photos from the tour, so I emailed the contact who had reached out right after the tour and asked if they could send me higher quality photos as attachments. They sent them right away, which truly impressed me.
アクティビティの途中でスタッフの方が写真をとってくれますが、メールで受け取ったら画像の画素数が悪く、顔の判別が不可能な感じでがっかりでした。アンドロイドだからかな?でも、帰国後に高画質の写真をいただけました。
最初は木々のなかをいく感じでちょっと時間を長く感じましたが、海がみえるあたりから景色がとてもよくて気持ちよかったです。ゴジラの足跡、ジュラシックパークの渓谷。
特に他のツアーの4WDの車列がみえ、それが、あのジュラシックの映画のワンシーンのようです。
安全のためビデオ撮影は不可で、写真は大丈夫でした。荷物はポシェット2つ分くらい持ち込み可能でした。大きな荷物はロッカーか車にしまっていきましょう。小さな水があるといいかも。
日本に帰国後、やっぱり高画質のツアー中の写真がほしくてツアー直後にメールをくれた先にメールでもっと高画質の写真でメールに添付してほしいとお願いしたら、すぐに送ってくれました。これには本当に感激しました。

Unlike Japanese riding clubs that use racehorses, the horses here are gentle and calm, so I wasn't scared at all. The scenery, with both the sea and mountains, was stunning and breathtaking. I don't think you could ride for two hours in Japan for this price. It's a great deal.

When I arrived at Kualoa Ranch by bus, it was drizzling, and at times it got stronger, so I was worried about whether we could enjoy the experience. However, after borrowing a raincoat, it cleared up and I was able to comfortably participate in the tour!
There was one instructor and about six participants, including myself, and we rode horses for about an hour and a half. We were able to enjoy the vast nature while visiting the filming locations of movies. The horses were very well-behaved and participated in the tour calmly, mostly without needing much direction from us.
The tour was conducted in English. Before participating, there were staff members who spoke Japanese, so they confirmed the meeting place and time for me, allowing me to join without any trouble or confusion!
After the horseback riding, we had some time before the return bus, so I looked at souvenirs and bought some drinks and ice cream to enjoy.
バスでクアロアランチに着いた時はパラパラ雨が降っていて、時に強くなることがあったので体験ができるか心配していました。カッパを貸してもらって出発後は晴れて来て、快適にツアーに参加できました!

映画の舞台を巡りつつ、広大な自然に癒されました。
お馬さんもとてもお利口で、ほとんどこちらの操作?なしでも一列で並んで穏やかにツアーに参加できました。
ツアー中は英語での参加でした。
参加前は日本語対応のスタッフもいてくれたので、集合場所や時間を確認して教えてくださり、困ったり迷わず参加することができました!

The English was easy to understand, and it was a safe experience with a small group. The horseback riding experience in the beautiful sea of the North Shore was incredibly moving. The riding time was 1.5 hours, and it was more cost-effective than other tours with Japanese-speaking guides and transportation. We used hui car share for transportation, so after horseback riding, we were able to leisurely enjoy food walking in Haleiwa. It became a very good memory. Next time, I would like to try sunset horseback riding.

I saw in the notes that there were people in sandals, so I thought it would be fine to go in sandals, but it wasn't. I ended up buying shoes at a souvenir shop... Please be careful.
I didn't request a shuttle and took the bus from Ala Moana Shopping Center. Along the way, an employee wearing a Kualoa T-shirt got on, which gave me a strange sense of reassurance. There were already Jurassic Park-like mountains on the bus ride, and I was amazed. The bus was extremely cold!!
When it was time for horseback riding, we gathered at the barn. When they asked about my English skills and I said I wasn't good at it, they showed us a video for Japanese speakers on a monitor. There were two other groups of customers besides us, making a total of six people for the ride. It was fun to walk through the mountains, across the fields, and see the ocean, but the main attraction, Jurassic Park, never appeared! It seems there are routes like that... I was really disappointed.
I had enough time to take pictures and videos with my smartphone.
注意事項に記載されていたことですが写真を見るとサンダルの人もいたのでまあ大丈夫だろうとサンダルで行きましたがだめでした。お土産屋さんで靴を買うことに。。。お気をつけください。
送迎は頼まず、アラモアナショッピングセンターからバスで行きました。途中でクアロアのTシャツを着た従業員の方が乗ってきたのでなんとも言えない安心感。
バスの道中ですでにジュラシックパークっぽい山がありおお~~~ってなってました。バスは異常に寒いです!!
乗馬の時間になったので小屋に集まり、英語は?と聞かれ苦手というとモニターで日本人用のビデオを見せてくれました。
私達の他に2組お客さんがいて計6人で出発。山の中を歩いたり草原を歩いたり海が見えたりと景色が変わるのは楽しかったですが、、肝心のジュラシックパークがいつまで経ってもでてこない!!そういうルートもあるようです。。すごく残念でした。

Destination was easy to find. The guides were very attentive and got us all on the horses fairly quickly. I've never really ridden a horse before so I was a bit nervous of maneuvering my horse but she was a go getter so I didn't have to try too hard. We all rode in a line which was very easy. We had to stop a few times which my horse hated, I got a very impatient horse which I don't blame her. Kinda wished we went a quicker pace but then that would shorten our trip which was 1.5hrs which .5 of that was loading and unloading the horses. I wish the trail was a bit longer. The area was beautiful and quiet which I like. I got some good pictures. We used my step daughters phone for the group pictures cause she had a better camera but when she sent me the pics they came out blurry and I don't get to see her often. Was a little disappointed but it was OK. Technical error. Overall great experience and got to feed the horses treats in the end.

We participated in a tour as a couple aged 68 and 65. It was our first experience with horseback riding, but there was one assistant for every four people, so it was easy to just follow along without any issues.
Once we got from the ranch to the coast, we were able to see the beautiful blue sea from a high vantage point. While enjoying the view of the ocean, we had a fun time leisurely riding the horses. The horses were accustomed to carrying people, so we just had to maintain our balance. We only needed to slightly change direction or move the reins when stopping. The 70 minutes flew by.
After horseback riding, we went to Haleiwa and tried the garlic shrimp and fries combo from a food truck recommended by our driver, Kazu. It was truly wonderful.
68歳と65歳の夫婦でツアーに参加しました。乗馬は全くの初体験でしたが、4名に1名のアシスタントがいて、ただついて行くだけでしたので問題ありませんでした。
牧場から海岸に出ると、真っ青なきれいな海を高い位置から見ることができました。海を見ながら、馬に任せて楽しく散策できました。
人を乗せるのに慣れた馬のため、ただバランスをとって乗っているだけでした。ほんの少しだけ方向を変えたり、止まるときに手綱を動かすだけですみました。70分はあっという間でした。
乗馬の後でハレイワにいき、ドライバーの一(かず)さんおすすめ、テレビでも紹介されたというキッチンカーでガーリックシュリンプとフライのコンボを食べました。本当によかったです。

Since I made a last-minute reservation, the shuttle service plan was fully booked, so I chose the non-shuttle, early morning, 2-hour horseback riding plan. I was a bit scared to drive in Hawaii since I wasn't used to it, so I took an Uber taxi, spending about 10,000 yen one way to get there. It takes about 45 minutes from Waikiki.
The ranch has lockers available for a fee, but when I went, they were out of order, so I was worried about participating with my backpack on. However, the instructor kindly asked me to take off my backpack, and I awkwardly asked the ticket counter staff to hold it for me. (I gave a tip when I got my belongings back after the experience.) I wasn't sure if this was the correct way to do it since my English wasn't sufficient… I slightly regretted not knowing if I should have given a tip when asking to hold my things, but the staff was very accommodating.
Small shoulder bags are also not allowed, so I used a waist bag and kept my valuables with me. *It seems carrying bags on your shoulder is not permitted.
Since the horseback riding experience is done in groups of six, it's understandable that reservations fill up quickly!
I had read beforehand that helmets can cause headaches, so I tried on several to find one that fit well.
The horseback riding experience was absolutely amazing. I was able to enjoy the vast land, impressive mountains, and the gentle, wise horses as we moved along slowly, taking in nature. Although the sky was unfortunately cloudy, it added to the atmosphere and was wonderful. The instructor primarily spoke in English, but occasionally provided instructions in Japanese, which I appreciated despite feeling a bit guilty.
At one point, the instructor took photos with her iPhone and shared them via Airdrop at the end of the experience.
I also passed by customers on four-wheeler buggies and bus tours, happily greeting them with "Aloha!" and had a great time.
The experience ended just after 10 AM, allowing me to make the most of the rest of the day, creating wonderful memories.
直前に予約したため、送迎付きのプランは予約いっぱいで選べず…
送迎なし・朝イチの、乗馬2時間プランを選択しました。
ハワイで慣れない車の運転をするのは少し怖かったので、
ウーバータクシーを使って片道約10,000円かけて現地まで向かいました。
ワイキキ からは45分くらいで到着できます。
牧場には、有料で使用できるロッカーが常設されているのですが、
私が行った時は故障していて使えず…
リュックを背負ったまま参加なのかな…と思っていたら
インストラクターさんからバックパックはおろしてくださいね〜と注意があり、
アワアワしながらチケットカウンターのお姉さんにバックパックを預かってもらいました。
(体験後、荷物を返してもらう際にチップを渡しました。)
↑英語が十分に話せなかったため、これが正しい方法なのか不明です…
普通預かってもらうときにチップ渡すべき…?と少し後悔しておりますが
ひとまず、スタッフさんは快く預かってくれました。
小さなショルダーバッグもNGなので、
ウエストバッグにして、貴重品は所持していました。
※荷物を肩にかけるのはNGとのこと
乗馬は6人1組で体験するので、
予約がすぐに埋まってしまうのも頷けました!
事前に、ヘルメットで頭が痛くなる…という体験談を読んでいたため、
いくつか試着してちょうど良いものを選びました。
乗馬体験はもう、それはそれは最高で、
広大な大地、迫力のある山々、
穏やかで賢いお馬ちゃんたちと一緒にポクポクとゆっくり進みながら、
楽しく自然を感じることができました。
生憎の曇り空でしたが、それもそれで雰囲気があって最高です。
インストラクターのお姉さんは、9割英語での説明ですが
時折日本語で一生懸命指示してくれて、申し訳ない気持ちと共に有り難かったです。
途中で、お姉さんのiPhoneで写真を撮ってくれて、
体験の終わりにAirdropで共有してくれました。
4輪バギーや、バスツアーのお客さんともすれ違って、
「アロハ〜」と陽気に挨拶しながらめちゃくちゃ楽しみました。
体験は10時過ぎにには終了したので、
その後の1日も有効に過ごせてとても良い思い出です。

This was my first time using this service. Thanks to the smart horses, I have wonderful memories of my trip to Hawaii! I enjoyed the beautiful sea and mountains of the North Shore from the back of a horse, which was even higher than I expected, in a relaxed and leisurely manner. It was the best! Thank you!
I was able to take photos with my phone while riding, and I felt reassured that there was no pressure to buy anything after the tour. At the photo point with the ocean in the background, the staff took pictures for us with our phones.
A friend of mine who has riding experience felt that just walking was a bit lacking, but I prioritized safety and had plenty of fun. All the instructions were in English, but I was able to understand most of it through gestures. For any unclear points, I confirmed with hand signals.
I don't know if it's just the relaxed atmosphere of Hawaii or if Japanese people are particularly punctual, but when I arrived with plenty of time to spare, I ended up waiting quite a while past the meeting time. Another group arrived before us, but we ended up riding first (maybe due to reservations?), which was quite frustrating.
今回初めて利用させていただきました。
賢いお馬さんのおかげで、Hawaii旅行の良い思い出となりました!
ノースショアのきれいな海と山を思った以上に高いお馬さんの背中の上から、ゆっくりのんびり堪能しました。最高でした!ありがとうございました!
乗馬しながら携帯で写真を撮ることができ、ツアー後に売りつけられることもなく安心です。海をバックにしたポイントでは、スタッフさんが私たちの携帯で写真を撮ってくれます。
乗馬経験のある友人は、歩くだけでは少し物足りなかったようですが、私は安全第一、十分楽しめました。説明はすべて英語ででしたが、だいたい動作で理解できました。不明な点は、身振り手振りで再確認しました。
ハワイ全体がのんびりなのか、日本人が律儀なのか、集合時間に余裕をもって行ったところ、集合時間を過ぎてもだいぶ待たされました。違うグループは私たちより先に到着していたのに乗馬は私たちが先で(予約の関係?)結構イライラされていました。

It was a fun tour to ride horses for two hours and walk through the magnificent nature of Kualoa. The shuttle bus to Kualoa Ranch was clean, making the journey very comfortable. If I had to mention something, the café was crowded that day, and while waiting in line for lunch, I almost ran out of time, so I thought it would have been better to bring a snack. If you're concerned about sunburn, it might be good to have a cover-up. Also, if the helmet strap smells, I think it's better to find a way to adjust how you wear it.
2時間馬に乗ってクアロアの壮大な自然を散歩する楽しいツアーでした。

At Kualoa Ranch, there are many activities, and at my husband's request, we decided to go horseback riding. This was my husband's third time, while it was my first experience. Although I was nervous, I got to ride a horse and slowly lined up, swaying gently on the calm and smart horses. We enjoyed beautiful views of the mountains, movie filming locations, and the stunning contrast between the sky and the sea. Initially, I was very anxious, but in the end, I was extremely satisfied with choosing horseback riding and participating in this course. I still remember various scenes vividly.

As advice for those who will go in the future, I recommend bringing a waist pouch. There are few places to secure valuables on the horse, so it's convenient to have.
初乗馬でしたが、お利口な馬たちのおかげでなんなく終えることができました。
2時間休みなくだったので少々疲れたのと、背中はだいぶ筋肉痛になりましたが、最高の経験になったと感じます。
これからの方へのアドバイスとして、ウェストポーチを持っていくことをおすすめします。
馬につけられる貴重品が少ないので、あると便利です。

I had been curious about the horseback riding experience at Kualoa Ranch for a long time. It was great to have such a unique experience in nature.
It was my first time riding a horse, and I was scared, but I managed to get on. It was a bit tough since I had to put some strength into my legs. (I did end up with sore muscles the next day, haha.)
I'm not sure if there are several courses, but on this day, I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't see the Jurassic Park signs or bones, but I still had a lot of fun. If I could have spoken English, I might have been able to ask about it...
The path we walked was quite narrow, which was a bit nerve-wracking, but it was also fun. We enjoyed views of the ocean, walked along narrow paths, and passed right next to a herd of cows.
Since you can't carry any bags while riding, I put everything in a locker. I only took my smartphone, secured it with a strap to my belt, and kept it in a pocket where I could easily access it, but you have to hold the reins with both hands to avoid dropping it, so it's at your own risk. If you want to take photos, it's best to attach a strap to your smartphone or something similar to ensure it doesn't fall. Your own safety comes first.
The instructor kindly took some photos for us, which was nice.
Wearing long pants is a good idea. The horse can get a bit messy, so it's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty, haha.
I was satisfied with the cute souvenirs I bought. There are light snacks available, but the food might be tastier after returning to Waikiki?
I actually wanted to try the ATV experience as well, but it wasn't available that day. During the free time, I looked at the animals in the park. Next time, I definitely want to experience the ATV ride too.
ずっと気になっていたクアロア牧場の乗馬体験。大自然の中貴重な体験ができて良かったです。
初めての乗馬で怖かったですが、何とか乗れました。足に力を入れるので少し大変でした。(次の日筋肉痛にはなりました笑)
コースがいくつかあるのか分かりませんが、この日はジェラシックパークの看板や骨は見られず、少し残念でしたが十分楽しめました。
英語が話せたら聞けたかもしれませんが……
かなり狭い道を歩いていくのでヒヤヒヤしますご、それも楽しいです。
海を眺めながらや、狭い道、牛の群れの真横を通ったりとしました。
荷物は持って乗れないので全てロッカーに入れました。スマートフォンだけベルトにストラップを固定して、すぐ取り出せるポケットに入れて持っていきましたが、綱を両手で持っていないと落ちるので自己責任。
写真を撮りたい方は、スマートフォンなどにストラップを付けて、絶対に落ちないようにした方がいいです。自分が落ちないのが最優先ですが。
インストラクターの方がご好意で写真を撮ってくれていたので良かったです。
長ズボンが良いです。馬が勢いよくもよおすので、汚れます笑 汚れてもいい服装がベストです。
可愛いお土産も買えて満足でした。軽食もありますが、ワイキキとかに帰ってからの方が美味しいかも?
本当はバギー体験もしたかったですが、この日は無く。空いた時間は園内にいる動物を見たりしていました。
次は是非バギーも体験したいです。

The hotel pickup location was ready earlier than the scheduled time. After checking IDs, we boarded the bus (it was a large bus that day) and headed to Kualoa. Upon arrival, our names were called, and we received our tickets. At this point, Japanese guests can receive their tickets from Japanese staff, who provide explanations about the facilities in Japanese, so there’s no problem for those who don’t speak English at all.
The tickets indicate the start time of the activities and the return bus schedule. For those riding horses, since you can't bring luggage, you can store your belongings in a locker for $5, which you can access in and out. They lend you a pouch that can be attached to the saddle, so you can bring water or a camera.
Before the activities, we watched an explanatory video (they ask what language you prefer), and they help you choose a horse that seems compatible with you, and then it’s time to ride. You don’t really need to control the reins because the horses are so smart and capable; as long as you ride quietly without burdening them, the horses will navigate the path on their own. If they suddenly stop, it’s usually for a bathroom break. (Laughs) But it’s still important to hold the reins properly for safety.
We only passed by the filming locations of Jurassic Park, with no stops or photo opportunities. Other tours with buggies or bicycles allowed for free photo-taking.
After the two-hour horseback riding, we had about 40 minutes of free time. You can browse the souvenir shop or have a meal. Right after the ride, a photographer takes individual photos, which can be purchased for $20 each at the entrance of the souvenir shop.
The return bus varies by destination, but you line up, confirm your name, and board the bus.
I thought it was great how efficiently everything was organized. We rode through the forest, but we also went to open areas with good sunlight, so sun protection is important. Additionally, you can’t get water, and even at the shop, a 500ml bottle costs about $3.50, so it’s best to bring your own.
The restrooms were clean, and even the portable toilets were spacious, not smelly, and well-maintained, unlike those in Japan.
I rode with my mother, who has difficulty walking, but the staff chose a horse suitable for her, and all the horses were very smart, so I was a bit worried, but everything was perfectly fine. However, riding for two hours does make your backside sore. (Laughs)
I definitely recommend participating at least once!
ホテルのピック場所は集合時間よりも早めに待機してくれてました。IDチェックしてバスに乗り込み(この日は大型バスでした)いざクアロアへ。
着いたら名前を呼ばれ、チケットを渡されます。
この時に、日本人は日本人のスタッフからチケットを貰えて、日本語で施設の説明等をしていただけるので、英語が全くな方でも問題ないです。
チケットにはアクティビティの開始時間、帰りのバスの時間が記載されています。
馬に乗る人は、荷物が持ち込めない為、$5で出し入れ可なロッカーに荷物を預けます。
馬の鞍に着けるポーチを貸して貰えるので、水やカメラぐらいであれば持っていけます。
アクティビティの前に説明ビデオを見せられ(何語?と聞かれます)自分に相性が良さそうな馬を選んでくれて、いざ乗馬。自分で手綱を持って操る…必要が無いぐらい馬が賢く利口なので、静かに馬の負担にならないように乗っていれば、全部馬が自分で道を進んでくれます。
途中急に立ち止まったりしたら、大抵おトイレです。笑
でもやっぱり危険なので、手綱はちゃんと持っていました。
ジュラシックパークの撮影場所は通過するだけで、停まったり写真タイム等はありません。他のバギーや自転車で周るツアーは降りて写真撮影自由にしていました。
2時間乗馬が終わったら、40分ぐらい時間があります。お土産屋を見たり食事をしたり出来ます。
乗馬して直ぐにカメラマンの方に写真を一人一人撮ってくれますが、その写真は1枚$20でお土産屋の入口で買えます。
帰りのバスは行き先毎に異なりますが、列に並んで名前を確認されてバスに乗り込みます。
かなり無駄無くテキパキと動けるので良いなと思いました。
森の中を乗馬で歩きますが、日当たりがいい開けた場所も行くので、日焼け対策は大事だと思います。また、水はもらう事は出来ず売店でも500が1本$3.5ぐらいしていたので、持参が良いです。
トイレも綺麗で、仮設トイレっぽいトイレも中は日本と違って広く、臭く無く、綺麗です。
今回私は脚が悪い母と乗馬しましたが、スタッフの方が、その人に合う馬を選んでくれ、何より賢
い馬ばかりなので、少し心配でしたが、全く大丈夫でした。。。ただ2時間も馬に乗るので、お尻は痛いです。笑
是非一度参加してみてください♪

The signal to encourage the horse is probably the sensation of pressing your heels against its belly... It seems that tapping around the arch of the foot doesn't convey the message.
お馬さんへの進めの合図は
踵を腹に当てる感覚かな…
土踏まずあたりで遠慮して
たたいてもわからないみたい…

It was great to have a horseback riding experience in the vast nature. The guide also taught us a lot about Hawaii, and it was fun!
Wearing clothes that can get dirty and sun protection are essential.

During my stay in Hawaii, the best experience by far was this tour.
● The scenery used in Jurassic Park. Specifically, there are vast grasslands with steep cliffs visible in the distance.
● Then, we crossed the forest and viewed Diamond Head from the top of a hill.
● This might be seasonal, but on the way back through the forest, the guide shared edible fruits and plants, keeping things interesting.
● The horses were calm, and there were few bugs, providing a rich experience. Since there was no trotting or galloping, I recommend it for beginners! Even as an experienced rider, I was completely satisfied without any fast-paced riding.
ハワイ滞在中、間違いなく最高の体験はこのツアーでした。
●ジュラシック・パークでも使われた風景。具体的には、草原が広がり遠くに切り立った崖が見えます。
●そして森を越えて、丘の上からダイアモンドヘッドを眺めました。
●これは季節限定かもしれないですが、帰りの森の中でもガイドさんは食べられる木の実や草を渡してくれて飽きさせない内容でした。
●馬たちもおとなしく、虫も少ない、心豊かな経験を得られました。速歩や駆け足はやらないので、初心者の方もオススメです!経験者ですが、速歩などなくても大満足でした。

The horse I rode was "Holoholo."
It was gentle and a bit slow.
I don't think it's a common experience for a complete beginner to ride a horse for two hours straight.
It's okay if you can't understand English.
I recommend it.
乗った馬は『ホロホロ』ちゃん。
おっとりしてて遅れ気味。
二時間ど素人が馬に乗り続けるなんてそうできる体験じゃないと思います。
英語聞き取れなくても大丈夫です。
おすすめします。

My family wanted to do the Horseback riding while vacationing in Hawaii.
This location was AMAZING! We drove out to the other side of the island, which was pretty awesome to be away from the touristy rside.
Our tour guide was a young gal who treated my family GREAT! She was very professional, kind and knowable about horses. I believe her name was Freda
The path (trail) we took was absolute Breathe taking. The ocean is sooooooo beautiful. Better than the tourist side! Even the grassy trails were . The horses are beautiful, well trained and they looked professionally cared for.
I rate Frida , the horses, the trail with 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Now… as for the other gal (straight blonde hair) who also was NOT our tour guide. I believe her name was Phoebe Giving her ⭐️
She was not interested in interacting with my family.
Wow.. as soon as youngsters arrived for their tour… Phoebe, was SOCIAL and guided them with EVERYTHING and she was giddy too. Total change.
We were all grouped together but would be toured separately. When she spoke out she said, you’ll go out separately and you’ll be taken out by me or Freda. Bam, I already knew she wasn’t going to be our tour guide because we weren’t young as the other group. She wanted to tour the ones closest to her age group. That’s perfectly fine but you’re not supposed to make it so obvious.
Anyhow, we were so PLEASED to have Freda guide us. She made this experience GREAT that we would do this again with her!

It was my first time horseback riding, but the guide explained how to ride in the car, so I was able to do it without any difficulty. Riding while looking at the blue ocean was incredibly pleasant! The horses were well-groomed and very obedient.
Unfortunately, I couldn't spot any sea turtles at the beach where they come up for air, but in Haleiwa, I had a reservation at a delicious garlic shrimp restaurant, and it was really tasty. However, there definitely wasn't enough time to visit all the restaurants. I recommend doing some research on what places are available and where to go.
At Dole, the line for the pineapple ice cream was very long, so I think you need to get in line right away after getting off to make sure you can return in time.
初めての乗馬でしたが、車の中でガイドさんが乗り方を説明してくれたので、難なくのれました。青い海を横目に見ながらの乗馬はとにかく気持ちよかったです!馬は綺麗に手入れされ聞き分けの良い子たちでしたよ。
海亀が息継ぎのために顔を出すビーチでは残念ながら目撃できませんでしたが、ハレイワではガーリックシュリンプの美味しい店を予約していただき、そこがとても美味しかったです。
ただ時間が足りなくて、店を回りきれないのは確実です。どんな店があるのか、どこに入るのか下調べしていくことをおすすめします。
ドールではパインアイスが長蛇の列だったので、降りたらすぐに並ばないと時間までに戻れないと思います。
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're glad to hear that you were satisfied.
