All Reviews for Romantic Things to Do in Oahu

It was well organized and everyone was very friendly. The singer Leilani was amazing she is a talented musician and told great stories. The food was better than expected. I would recommend to anyone.

I had a really good time with my husband!! Perfect date night. The food was delicious and so were the drinks.

I arrived about 40 minutes ago, and the staff was already waiting. There were only two groups of four people for the horseback riding at 1:30 PM: my husband and I, and a group of foreign women. I thought we would go together, but we ended up on separate courses and never saw each other, which made it feel exclusive. The horse was very intelligent and well-groomed, so I felt safe and enjoyed myself. The guide couldn't speak Japanese, but she engaged with us, which was fun. And above all, the location nestled between the mountains and the sea was perfect. I was able to relax and had a wonderful time.

40分くらい前に到着しましたが、既にスタッフの方が待機されていました。13:30からの乗馬は私達夫婦と海外の女性の2組4名のみ。2組一緒に行くのかと思ったら別のコースで終始視界にも入らず、貸切のようで特別感がありました。毛並みの整ったとても賢い馬で安心して楽しめました。案内の女性は日本語が喋れませんが色々話しかけてくれて楽しかったです。そしてなんといっても山と海に挟まれた絶好のロケーション。とてもリラックスでき素敵な時間を過ごせました。

Was really well done. Worth the money. Great entertainment and food.

We opted for the 5-star menu, and it was awesome. food was delicious, and service was fantastic. It was a terrific way to celebrate our anniversary.

We had a wonderful evening. Food was great, entertainment was fun. Very helpful staff. Would recommend this to everyone.

We celebrated our June birthdays with a glorious 1 hr trail ride at your ranch on Tues June 6. The wranglers starting with Tate and the other girls were professional, extremely nice and treated us all like royalty! Our horses were gentle and extremely professional as well. The sights were magnificent and we would highly recommend the Gunstock Ranch to any tourists and locales visiting the North Shore!

Emily was an excellent tour guide! Me and my 2 adult sons went on this activity and had a great time. We would definitely do it again. Thank you Emily for being an awesome tour guide.

The Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise was the best I have ever experienced! Food was excellent and rates a 10!!! The service was top notch with the servers offering to do anything to make our trip pleasant and fun. The entertainment was more than expected and with the audience participation it made the evening so enjoyable. I would take my whole family next time!

Had a great time. It's worth it. Highly recommeded

Our trail guides Angie & Noe were absolutely the best. Very attentive to everyone's needs. The horses were great and the sunset was a WOW! Highly recommended

My daughter said she wanted to ride a horse, so I did some research and found good reviews about this place, so I made a reservation. On the day of our visit, we arrived in about an hour by rental car. Our family of four started on time. We rode along the coast and into the woods. There were moments when the horses stopped to eat grass, but generally, they followed the horse in front of them. We returned to the coast, where we took many photos. We rode for just over an hour. All the staff were cool women. Our guide was Jessie. As soon as we finished, she took two horses to practice polo. Tips were separate, so I had prepared some, but she left quickly, and when I asked another staff member to give it to her, they called her back. It’s a bit challenging to get there without a car, but it’s a wonderful place! I definitely want to go again and ride a horse! On the way back, we even saw a beautiful rainbow, making it an unforgettable day! 😊

娘が馬に乗りたいと言うので調べたところ、こちらの評判が良かったので申し込みました。
当日はレンタカーで1時間程で着きました。
家族4人で時間通りにスタートしました。海岸を通り林の中へ。途中馬たちが草を食べ出し止まってしまうこともありましたが、基本的には前の馬に付いて歩いてくれます。また海岸に戻り、そこで写真を何枚も撮って頂きました。
1時間強は乗っていました。スタッフは皆格好いい女性です。私たちの担当はジェシーさん。私たちが終わるとすぐに、2頭の馬を連れ、ポロの練習に行かれました。チップは別途となっていたので、用意していたのですが、すぐに行かれてしまい、他のスタッフに「渡して下さい」と言うと、呼び戻してくれました。
車がないと行かれないので、ちょっと大変ですが、素晴らしいところです‼是非また行って、馬に乗りたいです❗
帰りはきれいな虹も出て、忘れられない１日になりました～☺

I went with my wife and daughter. The one and a half hours felt quite long, but being guided by a beautiful instructor through the magnificent highlands made me feel great. The scenery was also incredibly wonderful, and it was a lot of fun. The horses were all very gentle, and even my 9-year-old daughter enjoyed riding. It's a bit far from Waikiki, but I think it's not a problem at all if you have a rental car.

妻、娘　三人と行きました。　一時間半はかなり長く感じましたが、雄大な高原の中を美人さんのインストラクターに案内されて、気分も最高でした。又景色も非常に素晴らしく楽しかったです、馬さんもどれもおとなしく9歳の娘でも楽しく乗馬できました。ちょっとワイキキからは遠いですが、レンタカーが有れば全然問題ないと思います。

We participated as a couple from Waikiki, taking the bus. We arrived early to avoid being late and walked about 10 minutes from the bus stop, but no one was there. There were several booths surrounded by fences, and the horses were lounging around, looking quite relaxed.

After waiting for 50 minutes, just as our reservation time was approaching, we heard cheerful voices and about ten people returned. They each took commemorative photos before leaving, and we thought we could get on right away, but we were told, "You have to wait for one more group to arrive," and we ended up waiting another 30 minutes.

Finally, we started with a family of four from California, but the eldest daughter’s horse wouldn’t move. The instructor, who was at the front of the line, just kept saying to kick its belly. I thought we could have switched horses, or even used my horse from the riding club.

We returned as scheduled, but we could have ridden for another 30 minutes, right? Unlike the previous group, we didn’t get to take commemorative photos, which was a bit disappointing. However, we did give a proper tip. If we participate again, we plan to request a horse that can run.

ワイキキから夫婦で、the busでの参加です。
遅れてはならないと、早めの到着でバス停から10分ほど歩いて到着するも、誰もいない。
柵で囲まれたブースがいくつかあり、馬たちはのんびりと座り込んでいたり、まあのびのびした感じです。
待つこと５０分、私たちの予約時間になろうとした頃、きゃっきゃと声が聞こえてきて、１０人くらいの皆さんが帰って来た。
そのみなさんがそれぞれ記念撮影などして帰って行き、すぐ乗れるのかと思いきや「もう一組客が来るから待ってて」と言われ、再び待つこと３０分。
カリフォルニアから来た４人家族と、やっとスタート。そしたらそこの長女の方が騎乗した馬が動かない。インストラクターのお姉さんは列の先頭にいたまま、お腹を蹴ってとしか言わない。
馬を替えるなり、なんだったら乗馬クラブに通っている私の馬と替えてもいいのに。
そして帰着は予定通りで、もう３０分は乗れたんじゃないの？前の組みたいに記念撮影もなく、なんだかなあ。
でも、チップはちゃんとあげました。
もし、再度参加するとしたら、走れる方でお願いしようと話しています。

We were caught in heavy rain right after we started our ride at Hawaii Polo Club, so we couldn't begin horseback riding for a while. After that, the rain lightened up, and we enjoyed riding in the refreshing atmosphere after the rain. However, my daughter's horse suddenly crouched down, perhaps trying to dry off its wet body, which surprised us. Fortunately, the guide responded quickly, and since my daughter was accustomed to riding, she wasn't scared and we were able to start again. It was our first experience like this, and it made us realize that we are riding living creatures, not machines.

There were also small mishaps afterward, but we enjoyed those as well. It was a wonderful experience to take a pleasant walk along the beach with the horse, creating great memories.

私たちが、ハワイポロクラブについてすぐに、大雨に降られしばらく乗馬が始められませんでした、、その後、小雨になり、雨上がりの爽やかな中、快調に乗馬を楽しんでいたら、、娘の乗った馬が濡れた体を乾かそうとしたのか、しゃがみ込んでしまい、びっくりしましたが、ガイドの方が、迅速に対応してくれたのと、娘も、乗馬には慣れていたので怖がることもなく、再びスタートすることが出来ましたが、こう言うことは初めてだったので、びっくりしましたが、改めて、私たちは、機械ではなく、生き物に乗っているんだと実感しました。
その後も、小さなハプニングは、いろいろありましたが、それも楽しめました。
海辺を気持ちよく馬と一緒にお散歩できて、貴重な経験も出来て、いい思い出になりました。

The food and entertainment was fabulous.
The service was great.
Everyone was very accommodating too.

I experienced this during spring break. My son, who is in the third grade, my niece in her twenties, and I in my forties all took on the challenge together. It was everyone's first time riding a horse, and we were worried about whether we could actually ride, but we were able to smoothly get on the horse from the mounting block.

The instructions were in English, but they used gestures to teach us, so even with zero English skills, we managed just fine. We rode in a line through the grasslands and between the trees, not just on flat ground but also on rocky mountain paths, stopping along the way to enjoy the scenery for about an hour. It was a valuable experience that is hard to come by in Japan.

Although it's quite a distance from Waikiki, it took two hours by bus from Ala Moana Center, and it was worth the effort to get there.

春休みに体験しました。
小学3年生の息子、20代の姪、40代の私の3名で挑戦。ひとりで乗馬はみんな初めてで、馬に乗れるのか…と心配でしたが、台にのった状態から馬にまたがったのでスンナリ乗れました。
説明は英語でしたが、身ぶり手振りで教えてくれたので英語力ゼロでもどうにかなりました。
一列になって草原や木の間、平坦なところだけでなく歩きにくそうな山道を進み途中途中で景色を眺めるために止まりながら約1時間、貴重な体験ができました。日本ではなかなか体験できないのでよかったです。
ワイキキから距離がありますが、アラモアナセンターからバスで２時間、頑張って行った甲斐がありました。

Beach activities are great, but leisurely horseback riding next to Hawaii's beautiful ocean is a precious experience. The view is so good that it really lifted my spirits. However, since you ride for an hour, it can get a bit painful on your backside (laughs). If I could wish for more, it would be that since we only walked, it would be even more fun if we could run. This experience sparked a strong interest in horseback riding for me. By the way, no Japanese is understood at all. All the instructions were in English. However, the horse was very smart and walked and stopped without any signals, so I felt completely at ease.

ビーチアクティビティーも良いですが、ハワイの綺麗な海の横でのんびり乗馬も貴重な体験です。
とにかく眺めが良いので、テンションがあがりました。ただ、1時間も乗っているので、お尻が痛くなります(笑)
欲を言うと、歩くだけなので、走れるようになったらさらに楽しいだろうと、このことがきっかけで、乗馬に非常に、興味を持ちました。
ちなみに、日本語は全く通じないです。
説明は全て英語でした。
ただ、馬はとてもお利口さんで、何も合図しなくても、歩いたり止まったりしてくれて、何の不安もありませんでした。

It takes more than 1 hour and 30 minutes from Waikiki. The 1 hour and 30 minute trail ride had gates every 200 meters, and after opening and closing them, we moved at a brisk pace and then to a gallop, without any worries about the horses running away. The horses also seemed to be stress-free. Along the way, a donkey followed us, and it was adorable. The lady was also very friendly with a lovely smile.

ワイキキからは1時間30分以上です。1時間30分のトレール乗馬は200mごとにでゲートがあり、それを開け閉めしてからの速足から駆足で、暴走の心配がなかったです。馬もストレスがないように見えました。途中でロバが後をついてきて、可愛かったです。お姉さんも笑顔が素敵だった。

Last time, I went to Kualoa Ranch, so this time I came here.
The scenery was amazing, and I had a very peaceful time.
There were no other Japanese participants besides us, and the staff only spoke English.
Compared to Kualoa, there were fewer tourists, making it a hidden gem!

前回、クアロア牧場へ行ったので今回はこちらへ
景色が最高で、とっても穏やかな時間を過ごせました。
私たち以外、日本人の参加者は一組もおらず、アテンドは英語のみ。
クアロアに比べて観光客も少なく、穴場です！

This time I participated with my husband. We were a bit late for our reservation, but they were very courteous in their response. Since it was just the two of us riding outside, we were able to canter the whole time, and it was so much fun. I definitely want to participate again.

今回は主人と参加しました。
予約時間より、少し遅れてしまったのですが すごく丁寧に対応してもらいました。
主人と2人の外乗だったので ずーっと駈歩走行で、すごく楽しかったです。
また ぜひ参加したいです。

I made a reservation from Japan and participated.
As soon as I got on, we took off at full speed!!
The guide couldn't speak Japanese, but they kindly explained how to operate and listened to my speed preferences, allowing me to enjoy exactly what I wanted.

The scenery was amazing!!
We also rode through the mountains, so there were plenty of shaded areas, making it comfortable while fully enjoying the magnificent nature.
I definitely want to participate again! ★

日本から予約して参加しました。
跨ってすぐ爆走！！
添乗の方は日本語は話せませんが、丁寧に操作の仕方や、スピードの要望を聞いてくれて、自分の希望する内容ができました。

景色は最高！！
山の中も走るので日陰も多く、快適かつ雄大な自然も満喫できました。
またぜひ参加したいです★

We loved our time on the snorkeling and dinner cruise excursion. Well worth the price. Our captain gave great instruction and safety procedures. He also took us up snd close to a whale which gave us quite a show within 25 yards or so. The time by the shore snorkeling was impressive. Lots of fish.
The dinner was delicious with plenty of variety of drinks both spirited and not. I enjoyed the time to enjoy the sunset. Beautiful. There are two restrooms where you can change. Two shower hoses to rinse off after you snorkel. Staff was great. Underwater photographer was along for optional photo package you can purchase.

The horses living in the vast grounds were all very calm and well accustomed to people. It was refreshing to be able to run freely in nature. I will definitely use this again the next time I come to Hawaii!

広大な敷地の中で生活している馬たちは皆、とても穏やかで良く人に慣れていました。自然の中で思いっきり駆け足して乗れるのは爽快でした。次回、ハワイに来た時も又必ず利用します！

I know it's just the luck of the draw and bad timing but 5 or 6 people got sick on our trip due to high waves. Maybe cancelling the trip would have been best because after all that, the provided meal was not at all appetizing. Yes we saw a couple green sea turtles, but it would have been much, much better without the fear of human projectile.

I requested the advanced course. A Japanese participant mentioned that this is the only place on Oahu where you can do cantering, and they said they visited various places before finding this one. They adjust to the participants' levels, but we started running early on (laughs).

The wind felt nice, and the scenery was very beautiful, making it a fun experience. The horses were all quite relaxed as well.

上級者コースを頼みました。その時一緒になった日本人の方曰く、オアフの乗馬で駈歩ができるのはここのみで、その方はガンストックを見つけるまでに色々巡ったそうです。
参加者のレベルにも合わせてくれますが、始まって早々に走りました（笑）

風が気持ち良く、景色もとても綺麗で楽しかったです。馬たちもみんなのんびりしていました。

It was very sucesefull suprise for my son and his girlfriend! Mahalo

Great food, great entertainment, so much fun! Highly recommend! So romantic and even better with the fireworks. So happy I did this for my husband and I.

I participated on March 8, 2017.

I wanted to ride along the coast, so I rented a car and went to the North Shore. There were some online warnings about it being hard to find, but it was well-marked on Google and the rental car's navigation system, so I had no trouble once I got close. However, it's definitely tough without a rental car.

Our club is located in a corner of a spacious polo field, and the horses were relaxed, providing a much more open atmosphere compared to Japan.

After showing our voucher, we set off with two teenage girls and a total of four people plus one staff member. The saddles were Western-style, which I wasn't used to, but the horses were really calm. The weather was cloudy with occasional sunshine, and the breeze felt great—it was the perfect outdoor ride.

However, the customer service felt a bit indifferent, and I got the impression that they weren't very accustomed to dealing with customers. I also wished we could have done a bit more trotting and cantering.

I recommend this for anyone who wants to enjoy a leisurely ride along the coast (beginners are absolutely welcome).

海岸沿いを馬に乗りたくてノースショアにレンタカーを借りていく際に
こちらに行ってきました
わかりづらいというネットの前情報がありましたが、googleでもレンタカーの
カーナビにもしっかり乗っていて、実際に近くを通ればすぐ分かったので
場所の心配は不要です。ただし、レンタカーが無いとキツイのは確かですが。

広いポロの競技場の片隅にある当クラブは
馬たちがのびのびとしていて、日本と違ってゆったりとした空間でした

バウチャーを見せて、10代の女性2人と合計4人＋1人（staff）で出発
鞍はウエスタンなので慣れませんでしたが、馬は本当に大人しくて
天気も曇り時々晴れ、風は気持ち良くて最高の外乗でした

ただ接客は少し素っ気ない感じであまり客対応になれていない印象を受けました。
後は駆歩や早歩が少しできればよかったなと。笑

★ゆったり海岸沿いを外乗したい方（初心者でも全く問題なしです）にはお勧めです

My wife and I had a very nice time on the cruise. We decided to do the stake and all you can eat crab legs. The food was good and our waiter was very funny. The only thing we didn't like too much was the crowdedness. My wife is claustrophobic, so she didn't like that the tables were very close together. Other then that being our one complaint, this is a cruise worth doing. The sunset is beautiful!
