I had a mix of no riding experience and a little bit, so I chose the 1 hour and 30 minutes course to fully enjoy horseback riding. The weather was nice, and the beautiful grasslands and mountains were a sight to behold. Along the way, I could also see the ocean, and while enjoying the magnificent scenery of Hawaii, I felt like a cowboy holding the reins.
Emily, who led us the whole time, shared interesting stories about the ranch and occasionally mentioned the cows and calves we saw. My daughter acted as an interpreter, which helped me understand everything. The horses were impressive, and the saddles were comfortable. Each horse had its own personality (there were six of us participating), and we had a lot of fun.
As someone with a bit of riding experience, I definitely want to participate in a course here where I can gallop again!
乗馬経験無しと少し有りと色々でしたので
たっぷり乗馬を満喫出来る1時間30分のコースにしました。
お天気も良く、見渡す草原と山並みが綺麗で、途中、海も見渡すことが出来、
アメリカハワイの雄大な景色を見渡しながら、カウボーイ気分で手綱を握って乗馬を満喫出来ました。
ずっと、先導してくれた
Emilyが、この牧場に関する事や、時々見かける、牛や子牛のエピソードなどを話してくれたのも、興味深かったです。
娘が間に入って通訳してくれて
理解できたのですが・・・
馬も立派で,鞍も座り心地良かったし、
それぞれ馬も個性があって(6人で参加)
色々楽しめました。

The quality of the performers' impersonations was surprisingly high, and the production was excellent, making it an enjoyable show overall. However, the group of guests in the front row was drunk, and it was very unpleasant that they kept crossing in front of me during the show, either to go to the restroom or for other reasons.
出演者のモノマネのクオリティが予想以上に高く、また、演出も素晴らしくてショーとしては十分楽しめました。ただ、前席の団体客が酔っ払っており、トイレに行くのか、ショーの真っ最中に代わる代わる目の前を横切って行くのが非常に不愉快でした。

I treated my friends and myself with the Five Star - Luxury French Cuisine with Live Jazz. It's was a great evening with the hula dancer's Happy Birthday song to my friend, the waiters cordial and professional service, delicious meal, conversation/fellowship time, pianist and jazz music performance which was very interactive with the guests, and nice view of the Sunset, Wikikki hotel "forest" and Diamond Head. Everything was perfect! Absolutely loved it. And it's a great and memorial experience for my friends, too! Thank you all for serving us!

It was my first time riding a horse, along with my 9-year-old daughter and my husband, aside from pony rides. However, the hour and a half flew by. The spacious ranch had remnants of an old rodeo arena, irrigation from sugarcane fields, and what seemed to be a weapons storage or air raid shelter used during World War II. They explained everything slowly and kindly, even to Japanese people who don't speak much English.
As we climbed the hill, we could see the ocean, and there were very old horses (34 and 36 years old, while the average lifespan is 25 to 30 years) leisurely spending time with younger horses. Wild pigs, cows, donkeys, goats, sheep, dogs, and chickens all looked happy.
The horses were smart, gentle, and safe. It was truly a valuable experience. I would love to go again.
9歳の娘と夫婦とも、引き馬以外では初乗馬。でも、1時間半があっと言う間でした。広い牧場には昔のロデオアリーナ、さとうきび畑の灌漑の名残、第二次大戦に使われた武器庫?防空壕?などがあり、英語はあまり出来ない日本人にもゆっくり丁寧に説明してくれました。
丘を登ると海が見渡せ、超高齢馬(34と36歳、普通寿命は25〜30年)が若い馬とのんびり過ごしていたり、野生の豚、牛、ロバ、ヤギ、羊、犬、ニワトリなどがみんな幸せそうに見えました。
馬達も賢く優しくて安全です。本当に貴重な体験でした。またぜひ行きたいです。

It was my first time horseback riding, and I was very satisfied after just one hour. Before the ride, there was an explanation in English, but it included gestures, so even if you don't understand English, you can somewhat grasp the information. There were other participants (foreigners) besides us, and we had a group of five plus one guide for the ride. During the ride, the guide spoke to us in slow English (asking things like where we were from). They were very kind, which was great. At one point, the horse stopped moving, but the guide handled it well. It was cloudy that day, but the greenery made for a very pleasant experience. It's a bit far from Waikiki, but I recommend it for beginners.
初めての乗馬でしたが、1時間で大満足でした。
乗馬の前に英語での説明がありますが、ジェスチャーが入るので、英語が分からなくても何となく理解できます。
私たち以外にも参加者(外国の方)がいて5名+ガイド1名での乗馬となりました。乗馬中、ガイドの方がゆっくりとした英語で話しかけてくれました。(何処から来たの?等)優しい方で良かったです。途中、馬が動かなくなってしまいましたが、しっかりガイドの方が対応してくれました。
当日は曇り空でしたが、緑が多くとても気持ちが良い体験となりました。
ワイキキからは少し遠いですが、初心者の方にもおすすめです。

I participated with my 66-year-old mother and 11-year-old daughter. Although I couldn't speak any Japanese, the staff were very kind, so we managed to get by with our feelings. It was our first time riding horses, and we were able to enjoy it from start to finish. Both my mother and daughter were very happy. However, the long bus ride and the uncertainty of the time made us anxious until we got back, but we created wonderful memories. Thank you!

I took my daughter on a ride at gunstock ranch as a 12th birthday gift. We arrived 40 mins before check in and watched the horses get saddled up, and had a chance to see the newborn baby sheep! The guide, Garrett, was incredibly friendly and more then happy to answer all her questions and calm her nerves before the ride began. The 600 acre, family owned ranch is absolutely gorgeous! Amazing views the whole hour. Caves that have been used for TV scenes, big open fields of cattle, wild boars running around, rainbow etc. I would definitely return for more rides in the future, and will be recommending it to all my friends!
Mahalo for taking the time to leave a review with so many details. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the ride. We hope to see you again soon. Mahalo

The first time was in mid-June last year, and the venue was fully booked, so we had to wait in line to get in. Our seats were standard and located at the back. This time, since it was January 3rd, I was prepared for even more crowds than last year, but it was quite empty. I booked good seats, so we were able to see the show right in front of us, and my daughter danced on stage, creating wonderful memories. I was very satisfied.
1度目は昨年6月中旬で満席状態で会場入りも結構並びました。席もスタンダードだったので後ろでした。今回は1月3日ということもあり昨年以上に混雑を覚悟して来ましたが、空き空きで席もいい席を申し込んだので、目の前でショーを見ることができ娘もステージで踊っていい思い出になり大変満足しました

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are sorry to hear that it had poured down during the luau but according to Paradise Cove Luau, it is their operating procedure to for their staff to distribute ponchos to their guests.
We hope that on your next visit to Hawaii, the weather conditions will be better and the luau experience will be much more memorable.
