The ladies who worked there were nice and friendly. The horses seemed well cared for. It was a nice ride but we would have preferred a little faster. It was Super slow. And they made us wear a helmet which we thought was not necessary, especially with how slow we went. Also it would have looked better in the pictures without the helmet. So overall, for the price, we really would have liked these things mentioned. A little disappointed unfortunately. But it was nice and peaceful.

I had an English instructor, but since the videos on how to ride were in Japanese, I was able to understand everything properly.
I thoroughly enjoyed riding a smart horse in the magnificent nature of Kualoa Ranch for a full two hours!
英語のインストラクターでしたが、乗馬の仕方などは日本語の動画が流れましたので、きちんと理解出来ました。

The Manoa Falls hike and tour was an amazing adventure and wonderful experience for my whole family of 9.
The tour guys was very friendly and educated on the mountains and Tree's that are in the environment.
I was a little nervous about the hike since my youngest is 4 years old and never been hiking before. The Tour guides where very helping in giving us information on how the trail might be slippery or what to expect so that everyone could enjoy the hike.
After the hike we went for a small lunch picnic on one of the mountain tops. We had great food and got to explore and see great views of the Waikiki Valley and Ocean views. We also got to see the diamond head mountain area.
This is an amazing opportunity to get some great pictures and learn about the Manoa Valley waterfalls as a family activity with younger kids.
I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for something fun to do.

The buggy activity was very satisfying! However, since it's an activity that requires a long time on the buggy, the time from arrival to participation and the time from the end until the return bus was a bit tight. There were other activities like horseback riding, but we didn't have time to eat lunch. We quickly looked at souvenirs, waited in a long line at the register, rushed to the restroom, and then headed back. The plan started at 12:15, but the morning gathering was at 10:15. Since we came to the resort, we chose a time that allowed us to relax in the morning. However, even though there were many places to explore, we had no time to wander around...
We got off the return bus around 5 PM. It takes an hour each way, so I wish the plan had a bit more flexibility or that we could choose the return bus time. It felt like a waste.
As for the driving, the staff told us to get closer quite a bit. We went on roads that a regular car could never handle. It was thrilling and fun to drive over bumps that felt like we might flip over if we turned the steering wheel the wrong way, and to navigate through muddy areas with uneven surfaces. However, there were also blind curves, and if the car in front had trouble, we could end up in a collision, or even if we managed to stop, someone could crash into us from behind! We were told to get that close, which was a bit nerve-wracking.
On top of that, even though it was a four-wheel drive buggy, it was set to two-wheel drive... The car in front was slipping on a gravel incline, with its rear wheels spinning for about three seconds. I was also drifting like in a rally. However, we were repeatedly warned that any damage to the vehicle would be the driver's responsibility, and if they deemed our driving dangerous or if we couldn't follow instructions, the staff would take over driving. So, if you try to maintain a safe distance, you might be told to switch drivers.
I think this should be communicated to the local staff rather than being treated like a tour. Also, we weren't taken to the Jurassic Park gate and the tree shown in the photos... Maybe it's under construction, or there are several courses, but it was disappointing.
バギーのアクティビティは大満足!
ですが、なかなか長時間バギーに乗れるアクティビティなので、
着いてから参加までと、終わってから帰りのバスまでの時間がややタイト。
乗馬とか他にも色々あったのに…
お昼を食べたりする時間はなく、ガーっとお土産見て、長時間並ぶレジを待ち、急いでトイレに寄って帰り、でした。
12:15スタートのプランだったのもありますが、朝の集合が10:15。
せっかくリゾートに来たので朝ゆっくりするとちょうど良い時間を選びました。
しかしながらお昼食べたり、色々ある場所なのに散策する時間もないとは…
帰りのバスを降りたのは17時頃。
片道1時間かかるのに、もうちょっと余裕を持ったプランか、帰りのバスの時間を選べるようにしてほしいなと思いました。なんかもったいない。
また、運転ですが、結構前に詰めろとスタッフに言われました。
普通車では到底走れないような道を行きます。
腹を擦りながら走るハンドル反対に切ったらひっくり返るんじゃないかというような起伏や、
左右の段差があるドロドロのぬかるみを走るのはとてもスリリングで楽しいのですが、
見通しの悪いカーブもあり、前の車がトラブったら追突したり、自分が止まれても後ろから突っ込まれるでしょ!?
という間隔まで詰めろと言われます笑
おまけに四駆のバギーなのに、設定されているのは二駆…
前の車も砂利の急こうばいで滑って後輪が3秒間くらい空転。
自分もドリフトラリー走行していました。
でも、車体へのダメージはドライバーの責任になるという注意事項を散々言われますし、
言われた通りできなかったり危険な運転だと判断したらスタッフが運転を変わると言われます。
なので、しっかり車間距離取ろうとすると、運転変われと言われるかもしれません。
ツアーというより、現地スタッフにこのこと伝えてほしいですね汗
あと、写真にあったジュラシックパークのゲートと木のところは連れて行ってもらえませんでした…
工事中とか、何コースかあるのかもですが。

You get to see various places where iconic scenes were filmed from Jurassic park and Godzilla. The scenery alone is enough to make me want to go back and take it all in.

In a word, it was amazing!!! Everything was special and fantastic. Specifically, the warm hospitality from the staff, the rare experience of piloting a Cessna, and the views of Hawaii from the Cessna. We came to Hawaii for our honeymoon for the first time, and this trip became our best memory. When we visit Hawaii again, we definitely want to participate in an optional tour with LANI LEA SKY TOURS. Thank you so much to all the staff for giving us such a wonderful time.

I had an amazing time.
My first experience with an electric mountain bike was really scary, but once I got used to it, I was able to zoom through the stunning mountain and sea views at incredible speeds—it felt fantastic! I think it's more suited for younger people; it might be tough for those in their 50s. Also, with just basic conversational English skills, I often struggled to understand the explanations for setting up the electric bike. But basically, there are four modes, and it was a simple operation of just changing the mode for uphill and downhill.
It was a beginner course, but the foreign participants had long legs and were pedaling at quite a fast speed, so I was doing my best to keep up. The instructor, Fallen, was amazing—funny, cute, and kind, and I became a fan of hers. If I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to do this again. However, I think 20,000 yen without transportation is a bit high, so I hope they can work on that.
めちゃくちゃ楽しかった。
初の電動マウンテンバイクはめちゃくちゃ怖かったけど慣れたら圧巻の山海の間を爆速できて最高に気持ちいい!!年齢的に若い人向けだと思う。50代は厳しいかな…あと日常英会話程度の英語力だと電動自転車の設定の説明とか理解できない事が多かった。でも要は4モードあって、坂道や下り坂でモードを変えるだけのシンプルな操作だった。
初級コースだったけど外国人の人達足長いしスイスイかなり速いスピードでこいで遅れを取らない様にと必死だった。
インストラクターのfallen さんがAmazingな方で面白くてかわいくて優しくてファンになった。又ハワイ行ったら絶対やりたい。送迎なしで2万は高いのでそこどうにかして欲しいです。涙

We participated in our first horseback riding experience as a couple over the age of 60. The explanations were in English and completely confusing! (The video was in Japanese, so that was fine.) There was a Japanese person in the same group who was fluent in English, which was a great help. The horse I rode was very smart and it was wonderful. My husband's horse kept stopping to eat grass from the beginning to the end, which made it quite challenging. It was our first experience, but we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature and create great memories.
P.S. The girl who was our guide was always attentive, very kind, and adorable. Thank you for your care.

The drive to the ranch is also beautiful. Driving up into the forest was so amazing the trees and the vegetation was so lush and beautiful. The mountain range is ahh inspiring. My wife and myself were pinching ourselves because we couldn’t believe what we were seeing. It was truly magnificent, if your on the fence let push and throw you off it. You need to see this location we had the best time on our ATV tour. The tour takes you across the ranch with stops along the way to take in the incredible views and some history, traditions including how the ranch came to be and movie and tv history. There were so many tours available including horseback riding tour, zip lines, ebike tour, bus tours to movie and tv sites. We had a quick bite in the visitors center before we jumped back on the bus to head back to our hotel. (I noticed at the last minute, I accidentally reserved a tour to the Ranch “without transportation” and I contacted Veltra and they quickly adjusted my to tour include transportation thank you Veltra)

This was me and my husband's first time riding an ATV, they do not throw you out there without training on how to ride the atv. They slowly start you off with a guide to make sure that you are safe to ride on your own. Then the exhilarating fun begins with screaming and a burst of zeal to finish the circle trail. This was a lot of fun and I recommend almost all ages to go. Also they take you by the ocean to ride as well as the trail. Oh I almost forgot!!! They have cool animals if you like to pet and feed them.

Since the trail tour at Kualoa Ranch was fully booked and I was planning to go to Haleiwa, I made a reservation here, which was available nearby. The staff explained how to operate the horse, but I couldn't understand any English at all. However, I was able to grasp the basic commands for the horse (go, stop, turn left, turn right) through gestures. Once we set off on the trail, our horse followed the staff's horse on its own, so we hardly needed to use the reins (the horse is smart!).
While swaying on the horse's back, I was able to slowly enjoy the view of the ocean through the pine forest by the beach, making it enjoyable even for someone with no riding experience. It's best to wear clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting dirty, and keep your belongings to a minimum (no backpacks allowed; you can fit a phone and a water bottle in the saddlebag that hangs from the saddle).
クアロアランチのトレイルツアーが予約いっぱいでハレイワに行くつもりだったので近隣で予約可能だったこちらを予約。
対応してくれたスタッフが馬の操作方法を説明してくれましたがこちらは英語全く聞き取れず
しかし身振りでお馬さんの簡単な操作方法(進め・止まれ・右左ターン)は理解できましたしいざトレイルに出発するとスタッフの馬に我々の馬は勝手に追従してくれてほぼ、手綱操作は不要でした(お馬さん賢い!)
馬の背中に揺られながらゆっくりとビーチ横の松林を海を眺めてることができ乗馬未経験でも楽しむことができました。
服装・靴は汚れても良い格好で荷物も最小限(リュック不可で鞍に引っ掛けるサドルバッグにケータイと水筒が入るくらい)でいきましょう。

Riding the atv is harder for people with weak arms as I am BUT we had a lot of fun especially when driving in the rally without speed limit ( you won’t be able to drive too fast of course with the bumps) and the boys enjoyed it so much! The part I like the most is when we got to the ocean side and see the breathtaking view there. Our tour guides also offered to take photos for us which was so nice. Plus there are a lot of farm animals in the ranch and you got to feed them if you like. Puppies and lambs are sooo cute!! Recommend it!!

My bf and I were looking to book an ATV experience and we were so glad we chose to do one at North Shore Stables!
We got there at exactly 9a. Our experience was scheduled for 9:45a. We filled out a liability waiver and got to hang out with the animals at the petting area. Before we started the experience, we were given a face mask (breathable ski mask essentially), a helmet and sunglasses for eye protection.
Then we were led to the ATV course. We had a guide leading the way and another guide behind us. I felt completely safe and the guides (Kai and Dawn) were so nice and helpful! There was another couple in our group so a total of 4 of us plus 2 guides. I loved that the group was small and we had enough time to go around the course a number of times. Afterwards, we went to the beach where Dawn took a bunch of photos for us. It was great! I can’t recommend this experience enough!!
You can also take horse riding lessons and go on a horse riding tour at North Shore Stables as well! We will have to check that out next time!
