All Reviews for Horseback Riding Tours

We participated as a group of four: two middle-aged couples and their adult children. On the day of the event, it started pouring rain in the afternoon, and we headed there with the mindset of possibly canceling. Fortunately, by the time we arrived, the rain had stopped, and we were able to proceed as planned. However, the horse I rode seemed to have been out in the rain, as both the saddle and the horse were wet, and the moment I sat down, my backside and the inside of my pants got wet. People on other tours, like the buggies, who had set out in the rain were all wearing raincoats. I’m not sure if the rentals were free or charged.

As mentioned in other experiences, the horses were very well-trained, and I was able to enjoy the ride without any worries, even as a first-timer. The female guide was very pleasant and attentive, ensuring we moved smoothly even when one of the horses started eating grass along the way. The scenery was truly wonderful, and the two hours flew by. I kept my smartphone in my pants pocket and took pictures with one hand, so be careful not to drop it.

Perhaps because it had just stopped raining, the greenery was vibrant, and the scent of the trees felt rich. My whole family was satisfied, and they expressed gratitude for making the reservation. We created great memories.

2020/1/2
成人した子供達と中年夫婦の4人での参加でした。
当日は昼過ぎから土砂降りになり、キャンセル覚悟でレンタカーで向かいました。
到着する頃にうまく雨が上がり予定通りに実施できました。
ただ私が乗った馬は雨の中を回っていたようで、鞍と馬体が濡れていて、座った瞬間におしりとズボンの内側が濡れてしまいました。
バギーなど他のツアーで雨の中出発したらしい人達は、皆レインコートを着用していました。
貸し出しは無料か有料か…わかりません。

体験談の通り馬達はとても慣れていて、初めてでも心配なく楽しめました。
ガイドの女性も大変感じが良く、前に後ろにと気遣いしてくれ、途中で草を食べ始めてしまう馬がいても混乱なく進むことができました。
景色は本当に素晴らしく、2時間もあっという間でした。
スマホをズボンのポケットに入れておき、片手で写真を撮ります。落とさないよう気を付けてください。

雨が上がってすぐだったせいかもしれませんが、緑が濃く木々の匂いも深く感じました。
家族全員で満足し、予約したことを感謝されました。
いい思い出ができました。

The local staff may not understand Japanese, but they showed us a video explanation in Japanese, which was reassuring. Each horse was very gentle, and we enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing time while feeling the sound of the waves and the wind by the North Shore. There was a lovely meadow where the horses stopped to eat grass, which was incredibly cute and amusing. I found myself naturally conversing with the horses! (laughs) They also took a group photo with the beach in the background, which became a nice memory. The staff immediately took care of the horses and gave them water after the course, so I think it's good to actively engage in conversation with them. They were very kind and attentive. We hugged and took photos together, creating the best memories. Thank you very much. There were also some friendly and cute animals besides the horses at the ranch! (laughs)

現地のスタッフの方は日本語はわかりませんが、日本語の説明動画を見せてくれるので安心でした。どの馬もとてもいい子でノースショアの海辺の波の音と風を感じながらなんとも心地よい時間がゆっくり過ぎていきました。途中馬たちの大好きな草原があり、草を食べて止まってしまうのもたまらなくかわいくて面白かったです。自然と馬と会話してました！（笑）海辺をバックに集合写真も撮って下さり、記念になりました。スタッフの方はコース終了後すぐに馬にお水をあげたりお世話をしていますので、こちらから積極的に話しかけるのもいいと思います。やさしく丁寧に対応してくださいました。ハグをして一緒に写真も撮っていただきました。最高の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。牧場には馬以外にも人懐っこいかわいい子がいましたよ！（笑）

I went horseback riding for the first time!
Riding in nature became the best memory!
The scenery while riding with views of the mountains and the sea was beautiful, and it felt very liberating.
For me, one hour was just right.

初めて乗馬をしました！
自然の中で乗馬は最高の思い出となりました！
山と海が見える中の乗馬はとっても景色が良く、開放感がありました。
私的には1時間がちょうど良かったです。

They are probably watching over us, but as expected, it's not as thorough as in Japan, and there isn't a lot of support, so I was quite anxious about the shorter kids not falling off the horse, but we managed for 45 minutes! The horses are well-trained, I suppose. The scenery was also very beautiful. I'm grateful.

見ていてはくれてるのでしょうが、やはり当たり前ですが日本ほど手厚いことはなく、めっちゃサポートがあるわけでもないので低い身長のキッズが落馬しないかとハラハラでしたが、45分頑張りました！馬がよく調教されてるのでしょうね。景色もとても綺麗でした。感謝です。

The path was relatively flat, so there was no change. During the explanation, I was told to leave everything hanging around my neck, so I honestly put my smartphone in the locker. All the other foreigners had theirs with them, and the instructor asked, "Don't you have yours?" I explained that I was told to put it in the locker. It's a shame I couldn't capture the beautiful scenery or the riding experience. I thought there should have been better explanations.

割と平坦な道だったので、変化はありませんでした。説明時、首から掛けるとのは全て置いてくださいと言われスマホもバカ正直にロッカーに。
他の外人の方は全員持っていらして、イントストラクターの方に「あなたたちは、持ってないの？」と言われロッカーに入れろって言われたのよーと説明しました。せっかくの景色もridingも撮れず残念。説明不足。特記に書けばいいのにと思いました

We participated as a family of three, including my college student son. He requested to do something that can't be experienced in Japan. We joined the two-hour horseback riding course at Kualoa Ranch, which we had been interested in for a while, with transportation included. While waiting, we watched a five-minute Japanese explanation DVD to confirm the key points. We quickly mounted the horses and started riding. As we explored the great outdoors of Kualoa Ranch, we soon saw the ocean on our right. The horses were very well-trained, so as long as we followed the instructions, there were no issues riding. The scenery we saw while riding felt particularly magnificent. There were explanations about filming locations for movies, which added to our enjoyment. The instructor spoke mostly in English, but we had a great time. All three of us were very satisfied. It was a horseback riding experience that is hard to come by in Japan.

大学生の息子と夫婦の3人で参加。日本では体験できない事をやりたいと言う息子のリクエスト。以前から気になっていたクアロアランチの送迎付き乗馬2時間コースに参加。待ち時間に5分程の日本語の解説のDVDを観て要点を確認。すぐに馬にまたがり乗馬スタート。クアロアランチの大自然の中を散策し、しばらくすると右手に海が見えてきます。非常に訓練された馬なので、解説通りにすれば問題なく乗れます。騎乗しながらみる景色は一段と素晴らしく感じられました。映画の撮影場所などの解説もあり、楽しめました。インストラクターはほぼ全て英語でしたが、楽しめました。3人とも大満足でした。日本ではなかなか体験できない乗馬体験でした。

I thought horseback riding could be done anywhere and that you had to wear a helmet, but it was really great! It was the first time all the horses were so gentle! The mountains and ocean visible from the horse really felt like Hawaii, and I'm glad I had the horseback riding experience here.

乗馬なんてどこでもできる、ヘルメットもつけないといけないのか、、と思っていましたが、とても良かったです！
馬たちが皆んなこんなに大人しかったのははじめてでした！
馬から見える山々と海もザ・ハワイという感じで、ここで乗馬体験してよかったです。

The guide was friendly, funny, and it was really great. The sea was rough, so we couldn't see any sea turtles, but it was still satisfying.

ガイドさんがフレンドリーで面白くてとてもよかったです。海が荒れていて海亀は見れなかったけどそれでも満足いくものでした。

During the company trip, everyone said they were going to Kailua, but I really wanted to go horseback riding, so I participated alone. But it was so much fun! At Dole Plantation, I enjoyed freshly squeezed pineapple juice and was very satisfied! Then, I went to Haleiwa Town and savored garlic shrimp! At a restaurant recommended by the guide, it was the most plump and delicious garlic shrimp I've ever had! After that, we headed to the North Shore, passing by the Triple Crown (surfing competition). Finally, it was horseback riding time! I was able to truly enjoy the scenery and riding!

The guide was very nice, and to avoid traffic from the Triple Crown, we took a different route back, stopping by a macadamia nut factory along the way. There, I bought macadamia nut butter and incredibly fresh macadamia nuts!

I really enjoyed it!!!!!

社員旅行に行った際、皆、カイルアに行くと言うことで、私一人どうしても乗馬をしたく、一人寂しく参加しました。
だけど、ものすごく楽しかった!
ドールプランテーションでは生絞りパイナップルジュースを飲み、大満足!
そして、ハレイワタウンに行き、ガーリックシュリンプを堪能!ガイドさんおすすめのお店で、今まで食べたガーリックシュリンプの中で、一番プリップリで美味しかった!
その後は、トリプルクラウン(サーフィンの大会)を横目にノースショアへ。いよいよ乗馬タイム!景色と乗馬を心の底から楽しむことが出来ました!

そして、ガイドさんがとても良い方で、トリプルクラウンによる渋滞を避けるため、別ルートで帰路に向かったのですが、途中、マカデミアンナッツ工場に立ち寄ってくださいました。
そこで、マカデミアンナッツバター、すごくフレッシュなマカデミアンナッツを購入!

本当にenjoyしました!!!!!

Last time, I participated in the Jurassic Park one-hour course. It was fun, so I joined this course where I could ride longer and also enjoy sightseeing. I was very satisfied to be able to see sea turtles as well.

前回は、ジュラシックパーク1時間コースに参加しました。楽しかったのでもっと乗馬時間が長く観光もできるこのコースに参加し、観光もでき、ウミガメにもあえてよかったです。に大変満足でした。

The tour content is lacking for the cost. It was a horseback riding course for about 15,000 yen per person, but there wasn't even time to take pictures in front of the filming location of Jurassic Park. I guess it's because of the horses?

費用に対してのツアー内容が薄いです。
日本円で1人15000円ほどの乗馬コースでしたが、ジュラシックパークのロケ地の前を通っても一緒に写真を撮ったりする時間はないです。馬がいるからしょうがないのかな？？

I booked a 2-hour course starting at 10:05. I arrived in about an hour, but with the check-in process, there wasn't much time for a leisurely lunch, so I bought a large muffin at the shop. There weren't many options at the shop, and both the restaurant and shop had higher prices. There are benches available, so I think it's better to bring light snacks like bread. It was a hot day, and I was sweating quite a bit, but it felt cool when passing through the shade of the trees. Since we walked through shaded areas, muddy paths, and stream-like trails, wearing clothes that can get dirty is a good idea. We were a team of six, and when the guiding staff instructed us to hurry, we would start jogging a bit, but all the horses were well-behaved! Large bags can be stored in lockers, but you can bring water, your phone, and a camera. The 2 hours felt long, but the scenery was wonderful, and it was a fun and great experience.

ピックアップ10：05の2時間コースに予約しました。１時間ほどで到着ですが、受付などしているとゆっくり昼食の時間がなく、売店で大きめのマフィンを購入しました。売店もあまり種類がないのとレストラン・売店ともに値段が高めです。ベンチもあるのでパンなどの軽食を持参される方が良いかと思います。天気が良い日だったので、かなり暑く汗が出ましたが、木陰の間を通る時は涼しく感じます。木陰の間を通ったりぬかるんでいる道や小川のような道を歩くので汚れても良い服装が安心です。６人１チームでしたが、誘導するスタッフの支持で急ぐ時は、小走り程度に急に走り出しますがどの馬もおりこうでした！　大きな荷物はロッカーに預けますが、お水や携帯・カメラは持参できます。２時間長く感じますが景色も素晴らしく楽しい良い経験ができました。

When I go to Hawaii, I often go horseback riding in various places, but the course here takes you through the mountains, and from near the top, you can see the ocean in its entirety, which is amazing. The well-trained, gentle horses sometimes like to nibble on grass along the way, so be careful.

ハワイに行くといろいろな場所で良く乗馬しますが、ここのコースは山の中を乗馬しますが頂上付近からは海が一望でき最高です。
良くなれたおとなしい馬が、たまに道草を食べたがりますので注意です。

I had always wanted to go horseback riding in Hawaii, and after taking riding lessons in Japan, my dream finally came true. During a two-hour tour of locations from Jurassic Park, I enjoyed the beautiful scenery on horseback in great weather.

いつかはハワイで乗馬がしたいと、日本で乗馬を習っていましたが、ついに念願が叶いました。
ジュラシックパーク撮影地などを巡る2時間、天気が良く素晴らしい景色を馬に乗って堪能しました。

It was a valuable experience to ride horses along the ocean. The service was great, and it became a wonderful memory. I was also able to eat the garlic shrimp I wanted on the North Shore, and the schedule was efficient, which left me feeling satisfied!

海の横を乗馬でき、貴重な体験でした。対応もよく、いい思い出になりました。ノースショアで食べたかったガーリックシュリンプも食べられて、効率のいいスケジュールで、満足感ありです！

I had my first horseback riding experience in my life! Tofi was free-spirited and almost strayed from the line, but it was so much fun. I want to do it again somewhere!

人生で初めての乗馬体験をしました！トフィちゃん自由奔放で列から外れかけちゃうけどめっちゃ楽しかったです。またどこかでしたいなあ〜

The horseback riding itself was great, but it was quite far from Haleiwa, taking about 40 minutes by bike one way. I recommend renting a car or chartering a vehicle if you participate in this option. However, unlike Kualoa, riding by the seaside was very pleasant with the refreshing sea breeze. The guide was in English, but there were Japanese informational materials at the reception, and they also showed a Japanese instructional video before the ride, which was reassuring.

乗馬そのものは良かったですが、ハレイワからも離れており自転車で片道40分くらいはかかりました。こちらのオプションに参加する場合はレンタカーか、車チャーターすることをお勧めします。ただ、クアロアとは違い海辺で乗馬できるのはとても海風が心地よく爽快でした。英語ガイドでしたが、受付に日本語の案内書面もありますし乗馬する前に日本語のレクチャー動画も見せてくれるので安心でした。

It took about an hour and a half from Waikiki, but it was a very peaceful and relaxing ranch. The horseback riding options for preschoolers are limited, but this plan is very fulfilling. We were able to leisurely stroll through the vast grounds and even had designated photo time at various points. Along the way, we learned a lot about Hawaiian plants, how to care for horses, and how to give commands. At the end, we gave a thank-you carrot, brushed the horse, and took photos, making for a total experience of about 1 hour and 30 minutes. They kindly answered all of my daughter's many questions, and she fell in love with horseback riding. It felt like a personal English lesson while riding, which was a great deal. The entrance to the ranch is a bit tricky, but it was truly a wonderful place. If you have some time to spare, I highly recommend it!

ワイキキから１時間半位かかりましたが、とてものどかでのんびり出来る牧場でした。未就学児でもできる乗馬は限られていますがこちらのプランはとても充実しています。広大な敷地をのんびり散策しながらポイントで止まって写真ＴＩＭＥまで配慮してもらえました。道中ハワイの植物の事や、馬のお世話の仕方、指示の出し方等など深いお話が聞けました。最後にありがとうのニンジンをあげてブラッシング、写真撮影で終わりですが、トータル1：30は体験できました。娘の数々の質問にも丁寧に答えてくれ乗馬が大好きになりました。
乗馬をしながら英語の個人レッスンの様でとてもお得に感じてしまいました。
牧場に入る所が少しややこしいですが本当に素敵な場所でした。
お時間に余裕がある方は是非！！

I participated alone, but I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. If possible, I would like an additional 30 minutes for free exploration of the town.

The main horseback riding experience has an excellent location, and the higher price compared to other companies results in greater satisfaction.

自分だけ一人参加でしたが、ほとんど気兼ねはいりませんでした。
出来れば町並みの自由散策があと30分欲しいです。

メインの乗馬はロケーションが抜群で、他社より高い分満足度が高いです。

I have been to Hawaii over ten times, but this was my first visit to Kualoa Ranch. I thought a two-hour horseback ride might be long, but I decided to book it since I felt two hours would be necessary to see places like the filming locations of Jurassic World. My horse was very gentle and well-behaved. There were some horses that started eating the grass by the roadside and stopped along the way. (I realized this is what "taking a detour" really means.) Experiencing the grandeur of Kualoa Ranch was amazing, and I was moved to think that they filmed Jurassic World and King Kong here. However, I must say that after two hours of riding, my backside was quite sore.

ハワイには10数回行きましたがクアロアランチには初めて行きました。2時間の乗馬は長いかなと思いましたが、ジュラシックワールドの撮影地などを見て回るには2時間は必要かなと思い予約しました。私の馬はとても素直で大人しく良い子でした。中には途中で道端の雑草などを食べ始めて止まってしまう馬がいました。（これが本当の「道草を食う」と分かりました。）クアロアランチの雄大さを体感し、ここであのジュラシックワールドやキングコングを撮影したんだと感動しました。さすがに2時間の乗馬は最後にお尻が痛かったです。

I waited for an hour.

I called and somehow managed to get another bus to come, but even after arriving, there was no time at all, and I hurriedly went horseback riding just in time for the return bus.

It might just be a coincidence, but I'm so disappointed that I feel like I want my money back.

I had trusted Veltra quite a bit, so it's even more disappointing. I was using it to avoid these kinds of troubles, but after this experience, it feels like there's not much point in using it anymore. I don't have the mental space to enjoy these kinds of troubles.

1時間待ちぼうけ
電話してなんとか別のバスが回ってくれたものの、到着しても時間が全くなく急いで乗馬のみして帰りのバスの時間

たまたまなんでしょうが、金返してほしいくらいがっかり

結構veltra信用してただけに余計残念
こういうトラブルがないように使っていたのに、ここまでされると使う意味があまりない
トラブルを楽しめるほどの心の余裕はありません

It was a 2-hour horseback riding course. I have experienced horseback riding several times before, but I wonder if the horses in Hawaii are bigger? About 10 minutes after we started, my back and waist began to hurt, and then my hips as well... However, the weather was great, and the views of the vast nature, mountains, and ocean while riding were amazing! Next time I go horseback riding in Hawaii, I think I'll sign up for a shorter session.

2時間の乗馬コースでした。
今まで 何度か乗馬を経験してきましたが ハワイのお馬さんは大きいのかな？
スタートしてから10分程で 背中腰回りが痛くなり始め その後股関節までもが...w
ですが お天気にも恵まれ 広大な自然と山 海
乗馬しながらの眺めは最高でした！
次またハワイでの乗馬をする時は 短い時間で申し込もうと思ってます。

I eat pineapple ice cream at Dole and shop at my usual store in Haleiwa. It's quite challenging to go alone, so this is very helpful. I can easily bring back a lot of shopping to Waikiki, which is convenient.

ドールでパイナップルアイスを食べて、ハレイワのいつものお店で買い物をします。
個人で行くにはけっこう大変なので、とても助かっています。
たくさんの買い物も、ワイキキまで楽々持って帰ってこれますし便利です。

It was an amazing two hours filled with dynamic nature that left me in awe! It’s worth more than the price! Also, it was my first experience with horseback riding, and I was a bit anxious, but all the horses were well-behaved and walked straight just by sitting on them. With the breeze, it felt great, so the two hours of riding flew by! I was torn between other activities, but choosing horseback riding was the right decision!

ダイナミックな自然に終始感動した最高の2時間でした！
お値段以上の価値はあります！
また、乗馬も初体験で不安はありましたが、馬たちはみんないい子でただ座ってるだけで真っ直ぐ歩いてくれます。
風もあって気持ちがいいので、2時間の乗馬はあっという間でした！
他のアクティビティと迷いましたが、乗馬にして正解でした！

I participated with my wife on our honeymoon. The scenery along the way was breathtaking. A guide accompanies you, but they won't hold the reins for you. Neither of us had any horseback riding experience, but we were able to ride without any issues. After riding, our backsides were sore, but even with that, it was a wonderful experience. The riding area has a distinct smell from the stables, so those who are not used to animals should be prepared. All the horses are well-trained, so there's no need to worry.

新婚旅行で妻と参加しました。
道中の景色は圧巻。
ガイドは付きますが、馬の手綱を引いてはくれません。
二人とも乗馬経験はありませんでしたが、問題なく乗ることができました。
乗り終わった後、おしりが痛くなりますが、それを差し引いても素晴らしい体験でした。
乗り場は馬屋独特の臭いがありますので、動物に慣れない方は覚悟が必要です。
馬は皆、きちんと調教されていますので、心配はいりません。

I arrived earlier than scheduled, but I was greeted with a smile. Everything was in English, and the staff were very kind and friendly. The horses were really cute, and riding in such beautiful scenery was a lot of fun. It was very quiet, so it felt like a private experience! The prices are reasonable, and I hope more people get to enjoy this.

時間より早く着きましたが、笑顔で対応してもらえました。すべて英語ですが、スタッフの方もとても優しくて親切です。馬もとっても可愛いし、綺麗な景色の中の乗馬はとても楽しかったです。すごく空いているので、貸切です！！
お値段もお手頃だし、もっとたくさんの人に利用してもらいたいなぁ。

It was my first time horseback riding, and I had a lot of fun! However, the North Shore was quite short, and including the meal, my stay was only about 30 minutes, so I couldn't see much at all. I would like to come back to the North Shore and take my time to explore it properly.

乗馬ははじめてでしたが、とても楽しくできました！ノースショアがかなり短く、ご飯も含めて滞在時間が30分くらいで、ほとんど何も見れませんでした。ノースショアは改めてゆっくり来たいと思います。

I experienced the 2-hour course. The horses are generally very smart. The horse I was riding kept stopping to eat grass, and whenever everyone fell behind, it would run to catch up—this happened repeatedly, which was amusing. At first, I was surprised, but I got used to running after a while. I'm glad I had an experience that wasn't mentioned in the reviews. The guide also talked to us a lot, which made it fun.

2時間コースを体験しました。馬は基本的にはとってもお利口です。私が乗っていた馬は寄り道して草を食べ皆んな遅れをとれば走って追いつく、、の繰り返しでした笑はじめはびっくりしましたが途中から走るのにも慣れてきました笑口コミにはない体験ができよかったです笑笑ガイドさんもたくさん話しかけてくれ楽しかったです

Since I participated in the Thanksgiving Day tour, it was disappointing that most of the shops in Haleiwa and the garlic shrimp food stalls were closed, and I couldn't visit the places I wanted to. However, I switched my mindset and decided to try again next time, and we set off for horseback riding.

The horse I rode was a bit of a troublemaker, and during the tour, when other horses approached, it suddenly took off running and raised its front legs towards them. I almost got thrown off, but the staff quickly intervened, so it ended well, although I was a bit flustered.

The guide who drove and guided us throughout the day was very nice, and he explained things clearly and humorously at each location, which made the participants feel relaxed. He really wanted us to see sea turtles, so we stopped at several spots, and we were able to see five sea turtles up close at the last location. It was a packed and very enjoyable tour that truly made me feel the essence of Hawaii.

サンクスギビングデーのツアー参加でしたので、ハレイワのショップとガーリックシュリンプ屋台のほとんどが閉まっており、行きたいお店に訪問できなかった事は残念でしたが、次回またチャレンジしようと気持ちを切り替え、乗馬へ出発。
私の乗った馬は少し暴れん坊で、ツアー中に他の馬が近づいて来たら、急に走りだし前足をあげてその馬に向かって行きました。振り落とされそうになりましたが、直ぐにスタッフが制圧してくれたので事なきを得ましたが、少し焦りました。
一日、運転と案内をしてをしてくれたガイドさんがとても良い方で、各所での説明もわかりやすくユーモラスに話してくれて、参加者も和みました。海亀を何とか私達に見せてあげたいとの事で複数のスポットに立ち寄り、見事に最後の所で5匹もの海亀を間近で見る事ができました。盛りだくさんでとても楽しくハワイを感じられるツアーでした。

I didn't make a reservation for a private tour, but on this day, it was just my sister, the guide, and me. After passing through the polo field, we reached the seaside. There was no wind, and it was slightly cloudy. We spent about 80 minutes slowly enjoying the sound of the waves while passing through some trees, having a peaceful time.

プライベートでは予約しませんでしたが、この日は私と姉とガイドのお姉さんの三人だけ。芝のポロ場を抜けると海辺へ、風もなく、薄曇り、ゆっくりと波の音を聞きながら途中木立ちを抜け80分くらいかけ波の音を聞きながら静かな時間を過ごしました。
