I went horseback riding for two hours. The day I made the reservation was rainy, so I decided to go anyway, but with this weather, it would be good if I could ride for an hour. I was advised to consider another day, so I decided to ride on a different day.
I was helped by their efficient service.
Riding for two hours is quite intensive, so if you're not used to riding, you might worry about muscle soreness the next day.
However, I recommend it because you can see breathtaking views of the sea and mountains that you wouldn't normally get to see!
2時間の乗馬をしました。
予約した日は雨だったので行くだけ行ってみましたが、この天気だと1時間乗れれば良い方なので、他の日はどうでしょうかと勧められた為、別日に乗ることにしました。
手際よく対応していただけたので助かりました。
2時間の乗馬は結構みっちり乗るので、普段乗り慣れてない方だと翌日の筋肉痛が心配になるかもしれません。
ただ、海や山の景色については普段見ることが出来ないような絶景を見ることが出来るのでオススメします!

It was great taking this tour with our toddler. It was my second time to make it to Kaneohe SandBar. My first on Captain's Bobs boat. The Crew was great and even though your sharing the tour with everyone else on the boat It didn't feel cramp at all. It was great to share the experience with other guest.
The food was good too. Most of my friends and I went in for seconds for sure.
The Sandbar experience was great too, even though there were jellyfishes on the water the crew was very good about keeping us informed on where to not go so that we can prevent from getting stung by the jellyfishes.
While we were on the tour it rained but that's Hawaii for you. If anything it made the experience that much better:)

When I went (at the end of October), the day before had rain, so the water quality was a bit murky, and the water level was below waist height, which wasn't the best situation. However, this is just a matter of luck, so I would like to try again. The crew was wonderful and made me feel that way. My 0-year-old (11-month-old) son also seemed to really enjoy himself, even just at the sandbar!
私が行った時(10月終わり)は前日が雨で水質が少々濁り、水位も腰より下ら辺で、本来のベストな状況ではありませんでした。しかしこればかりは時の運ですので、またチャレンジしたいと思います。そう思わせてくれるような素敵なクルーでした。0歳(11ヶ月)の息子もサンドバーだけでしたがとっても楽しんでくれている様子でした♪

It feels really nice, like flying through a canyon. You can take aerial photos as long as you secure your camera with a strap so it doesn't fall. I recorded a video.
It can be tough when it rains, but that's also a part of the memories. So it's a good idea to prepare for rain and insect bites to feel more at ease.
渓谷の中を飛んでいるような気分でとても気持ちいいです。
カメラもOKなのでストラップなどで落とさなければ空中写真も撮れたりします。

It was a very enjoyable tour!
The sandbar was a bit different from what I imagined, with the water coming up to my waist, but it was incredibly beautiful and moving. The staff suggested practicing snorkeling, so I practiced diving with goggles. I had never swum in the ocean before and wasn't confident, so I was glad I practiced.
I was worried about snorkeling since I couldn't touch the bottom, but they provided life jackets and fins, so it was fine! I was thrilled to see colorful fish and coral reefs.
The day I participated was cloudy and sunny, so when I got out of the water, it was surprisingly cold on the boat, and it actually rained a bit, making me shiver for real. The air conditioning on the bus was also strong, so those who are sensitive to the cold should be careful!
The hamburger for lunch was delicious too! The staff were very kind and lively, making it a fun and safe experience. I'm really glad I participated! I would love to go again on a sunny day.
とても楽しいツアーでした!
サンドバーは想像していたのとちょっと違って腰のあたりまで水がきていましたが、とっても綺麗で感動しました。シュノーケリングの練習をしとくといいよ、とスタッフの方が言ってたのでゴーグルをつけてもぐる練習をしました。海で泳いだことがなくて自信がなかったので、練習しておいてよかったです。
シュノーケリングをする時は足もつかないので心配でしたが、ライフジャケットもフィンも貸してもらえるので大丈夫でした!カラフルな魚やサンゴ礁が見れて感激でした。
参加した日は曇ったり晴れたりだったので、海から上がると船の上は意外と寒く、途中ザッと雨も降って冗談ではなく本当に震えました。。バスの中も冷房がきいているので、冷え性の方は要注意です!
ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかったです!
スタッフの皆さんもとっても優しくノリノリで、楽しく安心に過ごせました。参加して本当によかったです!また晴れた日に行ってみたいです。

This tour was completely satisfying. The hotel pickup, guidance at the harbor, explanations on the boat, and guidance at the sandbar were all excellent, including the explanation about the filming locations of Jurassic World during our return!

I participated with a team of five from work. On this day, the tide was low, and there were some sandbars exposed, but the sandbar where the tour landed was underwater. Although we couldn't relax under the parasol, the water level was just below our knees, so our guide and everyone else joined in and enjoyed playing beach volleyball like kids again. The BBQ burger for lunch was delicious, and we had fun snorkeling and watching sea turtles, so overall it was great. I think it's a good tour!
By the way, the boats are divided for Japanese and foreign participants, but we intentionally chose the foreigner boat to enjoy a more local experience. There was also a Japanese guide on the same boat, so I think it made the experience even better!

この日は潮が引いていてサンドバーが出ているところもありましたが、ツアーが上陸するサンドバーは水の中(^^ゞ

The ranch itself is beautiful, easy to find, and has plenty of parking and good customer service. The Multi-Passenger Raptor UTV tour allows drivers to switch off wherever the lead decides for the group to stop and take pictures. Considering how fully booked this place is, I never felt overwhelmed by the amount of people and during the tour itself, I felt like we were the only people driving around. Each turn led to a scenic view. Our 1 hour tour felt really short. We only stopped once and I was left wanting more. I wouldn't call this a tour because there is no narration or information provided. You simply follow your group and the passenger(s) take pictures/videos.

Hmm... honestly, my feeling is that it's disappointing not to have good weather. I did see sea turtles, but I hardly saw any fish while snorkeling. Perhaps I had too high expectations of the beautiful sea and sandy beaches. The instructors were very nice, so that's also a memorable part of the trip.

On the day we participated, there were many Japanese people, and we split into two boats: one for Japanese only and one for a mix of Japanese and foreigners.
We were on the mixed boat, but it was reassuring to have Japanese staff members on board. The tide was a bit high that day, so we couldn't see the sandbar, and the water level was about waist-deep. If you want to see a sandbar like in the photos, I recommend researching in advance. Here, you can stand, so we practiced snorkeling, but you can also play volleyball.
After that, we enjoyed a juicy hamburger lunch! It was really delicious, and I was happy that soft drinks were unlimited. Next was turtle watching! We were able to see a few close up. Finally, we went snorkeling around the coral! There were many small fish swimming, and it was beautiful. By the way, the water is deep here, so you can't stand. You can rent snorkeling gear (fins, mask) and life jackets to swim. The weather can change quickly, so it's convenient to have a light jacket. A towel is essential.
The staff were friendly, and we had a great time enjoying the ocean!

I'm a 25-year-old woman. This time, I traveled with a female colleague. I made a reservation for horseback riding because the reviews were good. I regret not booking an early reservation for a tour that included movie locations and a buggy ride, as it would have been even more fun. I was hoping for good weather, but in the end, I didn't make a reservation until the day before. Since it was last minute, there were only spots available for the 2-hour horseback riding course. However, I didn't hesitate to book because of the positive reviews.
The bus ride was smooth, and we arrived at the location. The atmosphere at Kualoa was great, and it really lifted my spirits. Since it's a ranch, it does have a smell. There were a lot of horses, and the constant urination and defecation were shocking and made me laugh. However, I am quite sensitive to smells, so it was pretty tough for me.
Also, regarding the helmets that everyone mentioned, they were quite bad. They smelled, were wet, and felt uncomfortable. As for the horseback riding itself, there were moments when I got a bit bored, but overall, I thought it was good. However, I don't think I'll ride again (laughs).

I had a tough time taking surfing lessons elsewhere before, so I thought, why not try SUP? It seemed like they decided whether to go in the morning or afternoon based on the sea conditions on the day. On the day I participated, the morning was free, and we did SUP in the afternoon. In the morning, I rented a bike and went to Lanikai Beach to play in the water. After having lunch, we did SUP. I was a bit worried about keeping up with two young girls since we were two middle-aged men.
First, at the shop, they carefully explained how to hold the paddle, how to paddle, how to stand, how to turn, and other precautions. We carried the boards and headed to the sea! However, the sea and wind conditions changed constantly, and we struggled against the wind, making it hard to reach the uninhabited island. I couldn't balance well enough to stand, so I ended up paddling while sitting the whole way... Everyone finally made it to the island after about 50 minutes! I was exhausted, but the sense of achievement was incredible.
While circling the island, we took a lot of photos, and on the way back, we had a tailwind, so we arrived in just about 10 minutes. I tried to stand and paddle again on the way back, but I kept falling over, struggling with my balance. Still, it was so much fun. Others were able to stand smoothly, so I think my core strength and balance are lacking (laughs). I was really tired, but since I enjoyed it so much, I rented a board in Waikiki the next day to practice again. I think I might be hooked. Thank you so much to our instructor Mieko and everyone who participated with us!
以前別の所でサーフィンレッスンを受けてなかなか大変だったので、ではSUPはどうだ?と参加。当日の海の状況を見てから午前中に行うか午後にするか決めているようでした。参加した日は午前中はフリー。午後からSUP。午前中は自転車を借りラニカイビーチまで行き海遊び。ランチを食べてからSUPです。若い女子2人組と一緒に我々中年2人ついていけるか少々不安。最初にショップでパドルの持ち方、漕ぎ方、立ち方、方向転換の仕方その他注意等丁寧に説明してくれます。ボードを運びいざ海へ!が、やはり海、風の状況はは刻々と変わるようで、風に翻弄され目指す無人島へはなかなかたどり着けつけず、立とうにもバランスが取れず、結局行きは最後まで座ってひたすら漕ぐ...。みんな50分ぐらいかけてやっと島へ上陸!ヘロヘロでしたが達成感は凄かったです。島をぐるりと一周しながら、写真も沢山撮って頂き、帰りは追い風なので10分ぐらいであっという間に着きました。帰りに再び立って漕ぐ事に何度もチャレンジしましたが、へっぴり腰でなかなか上手くいかず落ちてばかりでしたがそれでも凄く楽しかったです。他の方はすいーっと立ててましたので、これは私の体幹やバランス感覚がポンコツなんだと思います(笑)凄く疲れたけれど、楽しかったので次の日ワイキキでボードレンタルして再び練習しました。ハマりそうです。インストラクターのミエコさん、一緒に参加した方大変お世話になりました!

The bus was fully booked for departure. It’s quite popular, after all.
At first, it was difficult to find the sea turtles, but thanks to the guide's advice, I was able to see quite a few once I got the hang of it.
As for the main sandbar, it didn’t appear at all because it was out of sync with the low tide. (Even in shallow areas, the water level was about waist-high.)
Since it’s nature, there’s nothing that can be done about it, but I was a bit disappointed because I had imagined something like the pictures.
バスは満席での出発でした。やはり人気ですね。
ウミガメは最初は探すのが難しかったですが、ガイドさんのアドバイスもあり、慣れれば結構たくさん見ることができました。
メインのサンドバーですが、干潮の時間とズレていたのでサンドバーは全く出現しませんでした。(浅いところでも水位は腰の高さほどありました)
自然のことなので仕方ないですが、イメージ写真のようなものを想像していたので、少しがっかりした面もあります。

Finally, after watching the DVD, it was time to start horseback riding. It was very quick from putting on the helmet to the start of the tour, but strangely, I didn't feel scared at all. The ocean and mountains provided the best locations for photos! As expected from Kualoa Ranch! It was a bit cute to see the horse eating grass along the way and getting scolded by the guide.
This was my first time riding, and I went straight into a two-hour course, but since the horse walked slowly, my backside didn't hurt too much, and it didn't bother me the next day. The scenery was truly breathtaking. Surrounded by green mountains and feeling the wind from a high position was very pleasant, and the horse was well-behaved, so I felt safe riding.
Even as a beginner, I felt the horse was well-trained and smart because it responded quickly when I pulled on the reins. However, there were six of us on the tour, and the guide mostly talked to the experienced English-speaking rider at the back for most of the time. Since I chose horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, I wanted everyone to learn about its history and qualities together.
My English isn't that great, but I can speak simple phrases, so I wish I could have enjoyed both riding and conversation a bit more during this wonderful opportunity. It might be part of the guide's job to keep an eye on the members from the back, but as someone who was at the front, I felt lonely without someone to share this amazing view with.

ヘルメットをつけてからツアー開始まではとてもスピーディですが、不思議と怖さはなかったです。海、山、どれを撮っても最高のロケーション!さすがクアロアランチ!お馬さんが途中で草を食べてしまってガイドに怒られてる姿も少し可愛かったです。
今回、はじめての乗馬でいきなり2時間コースということでしたが、ゆっくり歩いてくれるのであまりお尻も痛くならず、次の日までは響きませんでした。何と言っても景色の良さに感激です。緑の山々に囲まれて、高い位置から風を感じるのはとても心地が良く、お利口さんなお馬さんだったので安心して乗っていられました。
初心者の私でも手綱を引っ張るとすぐに言うことを聞いてくれるのでよく躾けられていて賢いと感じました。
だだ、今回6人でツアーだったのですが、ガイドさんが後ろの方の英語が話せる乗馬経験者の方だけとツアー中ほとんどの時間を話していました。せっかくクアロアランチでの乗馬を選んだので、クアロアランチの歴史や良さについて全員で勉強したかったです。
英語はそこまでうまくありませんが、簡単なものであれば話せるので、せっかくの機会だったのでもう少し乗馬と会話の両方を楽しみたかったなと思います。
ガイドの方は後ろからメンバーを見ることも仕事のうちなので仕方ないのかもしれないですが、先頭を歩いていた私としては、この素晴らしい景色を共感できる相手がおらず寂しかったです。

It was supposed to be a guided tour with a Japanese guide, but the bus guide only spoke Japanese for jokes and didn't inform us about when to get off or the order of disembarking, so I almost missed my stop. The boat staff were good, but unfortunately, the weather was bad and it was cold on the ground. It might be better to check the tide times before booking.
日本人ガイド付きとなっていましたが、バスのバスのガイドさんは冗談だけ日本語で帰りは途中で下車し、降りる順番とかも教えてくれなかったので危うく乗り過ごすところでした。船のスタッフさんは良かったですがあいにくの天気で地上は寒かったです。潮の時間を調べて申し込んだ方が良いかもです。

It was amazing!!
Last year, I went to Hawaii on a package tour from a travel company and signed up for a one-hour horseback riding and a trip to Secret Island through their optional tours. The horseback riding was so good that I was determined to take the two-hour course next time, which is why I signed up this time.
This time, I opted for the two-hour horseback riding without transportation, and I drove there with a rental car. I booked the 9:30 session, and after confirming my payment and schedule, the voucher from Veltra stated that check-in was at 8:30. So, I left the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Waikiki around 7:15 and arrived at the Kualoa Ranch parking lot at 8:15. The traffic around Waikiki was heavy, and I was worried about whether I would arrive on time, but once I got closer to the mountains, the traffic suddenly eased up, and the road was straightforward.
I arrived at 8:15 and went to the ticket counter for check-in, but there was a long line! I realized why the voucher stated to check in at 8:30, even though I had booked the 9:30 session!
After presenting my voucher and completing check-in, a staff member called over a Japanese staff member, who provided a brief explanation and told us to go to the horseback riding reception 15 minutes before our session.
Even while waiting around the reception area, there was no announcement from the staff when the time came! So, it’s essential to approach them for check-in 15 minutes early! If you just wait quietly, you might miss your reserved time.
I was told that I could only bring a camera or a phone. Water was not allowed! However, after other activities, there was one person who left their water bottle and towel on a shelf during check-in.
The Japanese staff member advised us to leave all valuables and bags in a locker or in the rental car.
The helmets smelled quite bad, probably because they weren’t washed (laughs). Therefore, if you don’t want to wear it directly on your head, I recommend wearing a cap first before putting on the helmet! I learned this from my last visit and did it this time.
This time, there were a total of six participants, including us, in three couples. One English-speaking staff member accompanied us, but they mostly stayed at the back, so I was at the front. I was quite anxious and scared at first (laughs).
The horses go on their own, but there were moments when the staff was on their phones or when I couldn’t see the front at a turn, and my horse occasionally went the wrong way (laughs). The staff would come from behind, deliberately get close to my horse, scold it, and redirect it, but sometimes the horse would get startled and speed up or make sudden turns, which was really scary! (laughs) But once I got used to it, it became a fun accident.
The scenery was breathtaking. I think it’s an experience you can’t have in Japan.
I saw many reviews saying that the two-hour course would make your butt hurt, and I found that to be true! It suddenly started to hurt in the second half (laughs).
I think it was because I was tense and anxious in the first half, so adrenaline was pumping, but once I got used to it, the pain hit me suddenly (laughs).
After horseback riding, we had lunch at the hamburger place inside Kualoa Ranch.
There were plenty of chairs and tables, and outside there was a free water station with cups. We enjoyed our meal while looking at the ocean, and the taste was fantastic!
This is an activity I definitely want to participate in again next time! (^O^)
最高でした!!
去年、旅行会社のパッケージツアーでハワイに行き、同社のオプショナルツアーで乗馬1時間とシークレットアイランドに申し込みました。
その時の乗馬がとても良く、次回は2時間コースを絶対と思っており今回申し込みました。
今回は2時間乗馬を送迎無しの単品で、レンタカーで行きました。9:30からの回を申し込み、入金&予定確定後のベルトラからのバウチャーにはチェックインには8:30と記載がありましたのでワイキキのハイアットリージェンシーホテルを7:15ごろ出発し、8:15にクアロアランチ駐車場に着いてました。
ワイキキあたりは車が混んでいて、時間通りにちゃんと着くのか?と焦りましたが、山側に差し掛かってからは急に車も少なく、ずっと道なり一本道だったので分かりやすかったです。
8:15に着き、チェックインのためチケットカウンターに行きましたが、すごく並んでいました!9:30の回に予約したのに、バウチャーには8:30チェックインとなっていた意味がよく分かりました!
バウチャーを提示してチェックインを済ませると窓口のスタッフの人が日本人スタッフの方に声をかけ呼んでくれて、日本人スタッフの方から簡単な案内と15分前には乗馬の受付に行ってくださいと言われました。
受付周辺いたりしても、時間になってもスタッフの方からは声かけはありません!
なので15分前に必ず、自分からチェックインの為に声を掛けることが必要です!!黙って待っているだけでは、予約した時間の回に参加できなくなります。
持ち物はカメラか携帯のみと言われました。水もNGです!
他のアクティビティ後で、もしそのまま持って行ってしまっても水のボトルとタオル程度ならチェックインの時に棚に置かせてもらってる方も1人いました。
事前に先程の日本人のスタッフの方から、貴重品やバッグなどはすべて、ロッカーかレンタカーへ置いてくるように言われました。
ヘルメットは、洗ってないせいか、かなり臭います(笑)そのため、直接頭にかぶりたくない場合は必ずキャップを被ってから上にヘルメットを装着することをおすすめします!
前回の時に学び、今回はそうしました。
今回は私達を含め、計3組のカップルで6人での参加でした。
英語スタッフの方が1人同行してくれるのですが、基本一番後ろを行くので、私が一番先頭でした。最初はかなり不安で怖かったです(笑)
馬が勝手に行ってくれるのですが、スタッフさんが携帯を触ってたり、曲がり道で先頭が見えなくなってしまうタイミングに限って、私の馬がたまに道を間違えて違う道に進んでしまうことがありました(笑)
スタッフさんが後ろからやってきて、自分の馬をわざと近づけて叱りながら私の馬の方向を変えてくれるのですが、その時馬がびっくりしてたまに早足になったり、急な方向転換をして本当に怖かったです!(笑)でもそれも慣れてくると楽しいアクシデントでした。
景色は最高。日本では味わえない経験だとおもいます。
口コミで、2時間コースはお尻が痛くなると、たくさん見かけたのですが、後半に入ると急にお尻が痛くなります(笑)
おそらく前半は緊張と不安でアドレナリンが出てるからだと思いますが、慣れてきたあたりから急に痛くなります(笑)
乗馬を終えて、クアロアランチの中のハンバーガー屋さんで昼食をとりました。
椅子とテーブルもたくさんあり、外に無料の給水機とコップもあり、海を眺めながら食べましたが味も最高でした!
次回も必ず参加したいアクティビティでした!(^O^)

Unfortunately, when I went, it was high tide, so I couldn't see the sandbar and the water level was up to my waist, but it was still incredibly beautiful and moving! When I went snorkeling around the coral reef, we were lucky enough to have a sea turtle come close to us, and we were able to swim together very closely! The staff were also great at creating a fun atmosphere, and on the way back, they played the ukulele and sang for us, making it a truly wonderful memory! I want to go again!
残念ながら私が行った時は満潮でサンドバー見れず腰くらいまで水位がありましたが、それでもとってもきれいで感動しました!
サンゴ礁の周りをシュノーケリングした時も、運良く私達の近くにウミガメが来てくれてとっても近くで一緒に泳ぐことができました!スタッフさん達も盛り上げ上手で帰りは船でウクレレ弾きながら歌ってくれたり、最高に素敵な思い出になりましたっ!また行きたいです!
