The guide and the horse are both kind. ガイドさんも馬も優しい

Reviewed by: Asamama

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。

First horseback riding 初乗馬

Reviewed by: mia

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。

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!

This was my second visit to Gunstock Ranch. This time, I mistakenly entered "Kahuku" instead of "Lai'e" into the rental car's navigation system, so I got quite lost before arriving... Upon arrival, I signed the liability waiver, had my luggage stored, and borrowed a helmet before heading out for horseback riding! The course was supposed to be one hour, but I think we ended up riding for over an hour. Last time, we had photos taken at the photo points, but this time, since the Travel Maker's donkey was with us (laughs), the staff member seemed to forget about taking pictures, so we didn't get any... However, the horses were all smart and gentle, making for a very pleasant riding experience. I would love to experience horseback riding here again on my next trip to Hawaii.

２度目のガンストック牧場。
今回はレンタカーのカーナビ入力で「ライエ」ではなく間違って「カフク」にしてしまったのでだいぶ迷いながら到着しました・・・
到着すると免責書類にサインをし、荷物を預かってもらい、ヘルメットを貸してもらいいざ乗馬！！
１時間コースでしたが１時間以上乗馬をしていたかと思います。
前回は写真ポイントで写真を撮って頂いたのですが、今回はトラベルメーカーのロバちゃん（笑）もついてきていたので、スタッフのお姉さんも写真のことを忘れていたのか、写真は撮って頂けませんでした・・・
しかし馬たちもかしこく大人しい馬ばかりでとても気持ちが良い乗馬体験が出来ました。
次回もハワイへ行った際はここで乗馬を体験したいです。

Reviewed by: プップクプー

I chose Gunstock Ranch from the many horseback riding plans available. Since I don't know about other horseback riding experiences, I can't compare, but I truly recommend Gunstock Ranch. First of all, the horses are calm and easy to ride. I had no anxiety at all. I didn't understand the English explanations very well, but it's reassuring even for first-timers. And above all, the course is fantastic. There are mountains and the sea, so I wasn't bored from start to finish. This time, I took the one-hour course, and I think it's just the right amount of time. If it were any longer, my legs might get tired...

たくさんある乗馬プランの中から、このガンストック牧場を選びました。他の乗馬を知らないので、比べられませんが、ガンストック牧場は本当にお勧めです。まずは馬がおとなしくて乗りやすいです。全く不安がありませんでした。英語の説明はよくわかりませんでしたが、初めての方でも安心です。そして何よりもコースが最高です。山あり海ありで、最初から最後まで退屈しませんでした。今回は1時間コースでしたが、調度良い時間だと思います。それ以上長いと足が疲れてしまうかも・・・。

North Shore Private Sunset Horseback Riding & Campfire Dinner at Gunstock Ranch

Best Ride on Oahu

Reviewed by: Nick

We did the campfire dinner ride. They keep it to 2 to 6 people. We were the only 2 on the ride that night so it was a wonderful private ride too. It was very pleasant not being in a line of 20 horses like other places we rode. The ride is very enjoyable. Beautiful scenery. Relaxing ride. Clean pathway. Fresh air. The campfire is at the top of a hill so it was a little breezy. We went in December so it was a little cool. Dinner was nice. Good size steak and shrimp, macaroni salad, rice, fresh fruits, smores. More than we could eat. The guide was pleasant and helped my wife the couple times her horse wanted to go another direction. She let me lead a few times while she helped my wife. We will definitely do this ride when we make it back to Oahu.

Fun day!!

Reviewed by: Torie

What is awesome about Gunstock Ranch is that it is in a very secluded area. The trail is very peaceful and we rode through grassy clearings and lots of cattle. It was a very small and intimate group (myself, my friend and the instructor), which I really liked because on other trails I've been on it involved following a long trail of people on their horses. This time I felt more in control of my horse. The horses are very well trained and know how to follow each other. I've tried to get mine to trot, but since I was on a beginner's trail it wouldn't allow me to do it. Also, the instructor, Garrett (hopefully I spelled his name correctly), was very pleasant and helpful throughout the entire trail.

Second visit, completely satisfied even with kids! ２回目　子連れでも大満足！

Reviewed by: kenjiro2003jp

I am a 45-year-old man. Two years ago, I participated in a 90-minute scenic course here, but this time I brought my 1st-grade daughter and 5th-grade son, and we participated in a 60-minute scenic course as a family of four. We rented a car early in the morning and it took about an hour from our hotel in Waikiki. We encountered rain in December, but by the time we arrived at the ranch, the weather cleared beautifully.

A young woman at the reception became our contact person. Almost everything except for the contract was in English, but I think it’s manageable even if you don’t understand everything. A year ago, when my child rode a small horse in Cairns, a Japanese person on a working holiday helped pull the reins, but at Gunstock, even my 1st grader rode a proper horse by themselves. The guide led the way, followed by the two children and then the couple. The kids were quite nervous at first, but after about 15 minutes, they learned to kick the horse's belly, which made the horse move, and they looked happy.

The distance differs between the 90-minute and 60-minute rides, but I think the height of the hills we climbed was quite different. Since we had elementary school children with us, the 60 minutes was sufficient, and we could see the beautiful North Shore sea. Along the way, we saw horses and cows grazing. Walking with the horses was pleasant, and the scenery was lovely, creating a wonderful feeling. While riding, the guide shared various information about the ranch, but with my language skills, I only understood about half of it. Still, it was a good experience for our family. The guide was kind and accommodating to us. (By the way, this was my second time, and the staff were all young both times.)

If we can go again, I would like to do the 90-minute ride with my family. We have also ridden at another ranch on Oahu, but we prefer Gunstock. The reception is just a small hut, giving it a rustic and pastoral atmosphere like a Western movie ranch. There are turkeys, goats, and dogs wandering around, and as you go further in, there are many horses. All of them are large and impressive, exuding both gentleness and dignity. I’ve been there twice, and the staff were all young both times. It really feels like America.

４５歳男性です。２年前にもここで９０分のシーニックコースに参加しましたが、今回は小１女子と小５男子の子供を連れて、親子４人で６０分シーニックコースに参加しました。朝１でレンタカーを借り、ワイキキのホテルから１時間くらいでしょうか、１２月の雨に降られましたが、牧場に着くと見事に晴れ上がりました。
受付の若い女性がそのまま我が家の担当になりました。契約書以外はほぼ１００％英語ですが、わからなくてもなんとかなると思います。１年前にケアンズで乗馬した時の子供の馬はかなり小型で、ワーホリの日本人が手綱を引っ張ってくれましたが、ガンストックでは小１でも本格的な馬に一人で乗ります。ガイドさんが先頭で、その後に子供二人、夫婦二人が続きました。子供は最初かなりビビってましたが、１５分もするとお腹をキックすることにを覚え、それで馬が動いてくれるので、嬉しそうでした。９０分と６０分では距離も違いますが、登る丘の高さがかなり違ったと思います。小学生連れなので、それでも十分で、ノースショアの海が綺麗に見えますし、途中に、馬や牛が放牧されています。馬と散歩するのは、景色も良く、何ともいい気分です。乗馬しながら、牧場のことなど、ガイドさんが色々と教えてくれましたが、私の語学力では半分くらいしかわからず、でも、それも我が家にとっては良い経験です。ガイドさんもこんな我が家に優しく付き合ってくれました。（ちなみに、２回目ですが、いずれもスタッフは若い方ばかりでした。）もしまた行けるなら９０分に家族で行きたいですね。
オアフでは、他の某牧場でも乗馬したことがありますが、私達はガンストックが好きです。受付といっても小屋が一つあるだけで、西部劇の牧場のような、素朴で牧歌的な雰囲気です。あたりには、七面鳥やヤギ、犬が歩き回っていて、奥に進むと馬がたくさんいます。どれも立派な大きな馬で優しくも威厳を感じますね。２回行きましたが、いずれもスタッフは若い方ばかりでした。アメリカって感じです。

Reviewed by: ももこ

After passing by Kualoa Ranch and driving for about 20 minutes, we saw a sign for "GUNSTOCK RANCH." It’s not very big, so we actually drove past it once, but as long as you don’t miss that sign, it’s easy to find.

On the day of our visit, it was just the two of us, so we enjoyed a leisurely hour of horseback riding with our guide, making a total of three of us in the peaceful ranch setting. The conversation was in English, but she was friendly and approachable. The horse was well-behaved and walked closely behind the guide’s horse, so there’s no need to worry even for beginners.

We enjoyed seeing cows and peacocks roaming freely, and there was even a cave along the way, which was fun. I’ve been to the famous Kualoa Ranch before, but I feel like at Gunstok Ranch, you can truly enjoy a full hour of horseback riding. It was a bit disappointing that we couldn’t see the ocean view below due to the cloudy weather that day. While I preferred the scenery at Kualoa Ranch, I was ultimately satisfied with the experience.

クアロア牧場を通り過ぎて20分ほど車を走らせると「GUNSTOCK RUNCH」とゆう看板が見えます。あまり大きくはないので一度通り過ぎてしまいましたが、それさえ見逃さなければ場所は分かりやすかったです。
当日は私たち2人だけだったので、ガイドさんと3人でのどかな牧場をゆったりと1時間乗馬を満喫出来ました。会話は英語のみでしたが、気軽に話しかけてくれて、優しい女性でした。馬もお利口さんだったので、ガイドさんの馬にぴったりとくっついて歩いてくれました。初心者でも全然心配いりません。
牛や孔雀が自由に歩き回っている光景を見たり、途中洞窟があったりと、楽しかったです。
有名なクアロア牧場も行ったことありますが、こちらの方が1時間きっかり乗馬を満喫できる気がします。当日の天気が曇りだったのもあるせいか、海が眼下に広がる風景が見られなかったのは残念でした。風景に関してはクアロア牧場の方が好きでしたが、結果的には満足です。

This place at gunstock ranch was amazing the workers there were supportive right off the back. The greeting felt like home, no worries even though we were late due to the place due to traffic the team was very understanding. The 10,000 acre ranch was nice riding cowgirl and McAllen and being followed bullet the donkey was very romanctic. The horses were very easy to ride our tour guide did a good job telling us a little about the ranch what they have to offer and how we can learn a little about HAWAII history there. Me and my wife will most diffently want to come back and do the night dinner I'd enjoy this again prob try the advance racing of horses.

I signed up for a horseback riding experience in Hawaii for my honeymoon, something I had been interested in for a long time. I was really looking forward to it, but when it came time to ride, I felt a bit nervous. After all, once you get on the horse, you have to control it mostly by yourself.

However, that thought quickly faded. The well-trained horses (I rode one named Scarlet) followed the lead horse closely unless something unusual happened.

I enjoyed the various scenery, including grazing cattle, the ocean spread out below, and caves, while spending time with the free-spirited horses that occasionally grazed or shook their bodies. The hour flew by.

Although it was a short time, the horses moved differently depending on their personalities, creating a soothing experience that was different from just looking at the ocean.

A couple of points to note are access and clothing. First, regarding access: it's located away from Waikiki, so I think many people go by rental car. We headed there via the North Shore, but we encountered traffic near the beach along the way, which took longer than expected. I recommend allowing extra time for arrival.

As for clothing, there was a sudden rain during the experience. My husband and I were wearing long sleeves, so it didn't affect us much, but those in short sleeves looked a bit cold. This might be common for outdoor activities, but I think it's good to be prepared for changes in weather.

In any case, we had a wonderful time. I recommend this for anyone who wants to enjoy a side of Hawaii beyond just the beach.

ハネムーンでハワイへ、かねてから興味のあった乗馬体験に申し込みました。
大変楽しみにしていたのですが、いざ乗る時には少し緊張。何せ、馬にまたがったあとはほぼ、自分で馬をコントロールしなければなりません。
と、思ったのも束の間。
しっかり調教された馬（私はスカーレット、という子に乗りました）たち、よほどのことがない限り、
先頭のガイド馬に、ピッタリ着いて歩いてくれました。

放牧された牛たちや眼下に広がる海、洞窟などの様々な景色と、時折草を食べたり体を震わせたりする自由な馬との時間を楽しみながら、あっという間の1時間でした。

短い時間ではありましたが、それぞれの馬の性格によって動き方も変わり、海を眺めているのとは違った癒しの時間となりました。

注意ポイントは、アクセスと服装。
まず、アクセスについて。ワイキキから離れた場所にありますので、レンタカーで行かれる方が多いかと思います。私たちはノース経由で向かったのですが、途中のビーチ付近で渋滞が発生し、想定以上に移動に時間がかかりました。余裕を持った到着をお勧めします。
そして、服装。体験の最中に突然の雨。私たち夫婦は長袖着用だったのであまり影響を受けませんでしたが、一緒にコースを回っていた半袖の方が少し寒そうでした。屋外アクティビティでは当たり前のことかもしれませんが、天候の変化に対応できるようにしておくと良いと思います。

いずれにしても、とてもよい時間を過ごせました。ビーチだけではないハワイを楽しみたい方に、お勧めです。

Horseback riding experience in nature. 大自然の中での乗馬体験

Reviewed by: リサリサ

This time, I participated with my 61-year-old mother and 33-year-old daughter (myself). The activity is a meet-up at the location, but it's far from Waikiki, so if you don't have a rental car, you'll need to take a taxi or find another way to get there. I drove the rental car for about 50 minutes, as there was some traffic along the way. The road at the end is an unpaved gravel road, and since there are no signs along the way, it can be a bit unsettling.

As for the horseback riding, at our 9 AM reservation, there were five other customers (two groups of two and one group of one) besides us, but those five formed one group, while we were in a separate group with one instructor for the two of us. The five-person group had a photographer with them who took pictures while they moved (we did not have a photographer).

All the explanations were in English, but they taught the basic movements with gestures, so even if you don't speak English, you'll manage. Also, during the actual horseback riding, the horses are smart, so even if you don't perform the instructed movements, the horses will keep moving along, so you'll be fine as long as you're on the horse.

It's a one-hour course, and we were able to enjoy Hawaii's nature by going through the forest and to places where we could see the ocean. If I had to wish for something, I think it would have been even more fun if the horses had a bit more speed, but overall, I was satisfied with the experience.

今回、61歳の母と33歳の娘(私)の2名で参加しました。
こちらのアクティビティは、現地集合なのですがワイキキからは遠いので、レンタカーを借りていない場合はタクシーで行くなどの方法になります。私は途中渋滞もあった為、レンタカーを50分程運転して行きました。道は最後だけ舗装されていない砂利道を通るのですが、途中に看板などが無い為、少し不安になります。

肝心の乗馬ですが、私達が予約した9時にはお客さんが私達以外に5人(2人、2人、1人のグループ)いましたが、その5人で1グループ、私達は2人にインストラクターが1人つく別グループでした。5人グループの方には、カメラマンがついていて写真を撮りながらの移動のようでした(私達の方にはカメラマンはいませんでした)。

説明は全て英語でしたが、ジェスチャーを交えて基本の動きを教えてくれるので、英語ができなくてもなんとかなります。また、実際の乗馬中は馬が賢いので、教えてもらった動作をしなくても馬がどんどん進んでくれますので、馬に乗っていれば大丈夫です。

1時間のコースですが、森の中や海が見える場所に行ったりと、ハワイの自然を満喫する事ができました。
欲を言えば、馬のスピードがもう少しあるとより楽しかったかなと思いますが、総合評価は満足でした。

A horse and the first meeting to be taken care of after arrival this time. Our fellow is Keahi and Ruby. I have gentle eyes having the rich mane. I have you teach how to get on at once and am a walk start. A guide walks the top and arrives in the next. I can take in the muscle of the horse whenever I step forward, and one step is very powerful. We stretch out the back not to break preparations and add it and the pace of the horse. The scenery from the horse is high and feels the comfortable wind. I might stop on the way, but walk the way with the pitch difference easily. I took a photograph at the good place of the scene. It was the experience that I could taste beautiful air and scenery in instant one hour, and was valuable.
A guide could tell neighboring restaurants and the recommended beach and was very kind. I want to recommend it to all of you by all means.

On Saturday, October 8, 2016, my daughter and I challenged ourselves to horseback riding at Gunstock Ranch. We took the number 55 bus from the Ala Moana bus stop, heading straight to Gunstock Ranch.

The number 55 bus, which connects Ala Moana and Haleiwa on the North Shore, runs along the east coast of Oahu via downtown, allowing us to enjoy beautiful views of Kaneohe Bay and local beaches from the bus window.

Upon arrival, we signed a waiver given to us by a female staff member, stored our belongings, and got ready for horseback riding. We set off in a line of six, led by a handsome cowboy. It was smaller and less crowded than Kualoa Ranch.

The spacious ranch, blue sky, white clouds, and the deep blue sea stretching below— the scenery from horseback was breathtakingly beautiful! Since it was my first time riding, I was a bit scared at first, but I quickly got used to it and enjoyed the beautiful views and interaction with the animals.

For those with horseback riding experience, it might feel a bit lacking, but since the pace is leisurely, I think it’s just right for first-timers.

2016年10月8日土曜日、gunstockranchで娘と二人で、乗馬にチャレンジしました。アラモアナのバス停から55番バスに乗り、一路gunstock ranchへ。
アラモアナとノースショアのハレイワを結ぶ55番バスは、ダウンタウンを経由してオアフ島の東海岸沿いを走り、車窓からは美しいカネオヘ湾やローカルビーチの絶景を楽しむことができました。
到着すると女性スタッフに渡された誓約書にサインし、荷物を預けていざ乗馬。イケメンのカウボーイを先頭に6人の隊列で出発。クアロアランチよりもこじんまりとしていて、参加する人も少数でした。
広々とした牧場、青い空、白い雲、眼下に広がる紺碧の海ー。馬上から見る景色はこの世のものとは思えない美しさでした！初めての乗馬だったので、乗る時は少し怖かったのですが、すぐに慣れ、美しい景色と動物との触れ合いを楽しみました。
乗馬経験のある人には少し物足りないのかもしれませんが、のんびりと進んでいくので、初体験の方々にはちょうどいい内容なのではないかと思います。

Reviewed by: うまにあ

Horseback riding can be enjoyed all over the world, and I make sure to experience it wherever I travel. While most clubs typically offer just a basic riding experience, this one responded to our requests and allowed us to canter.

We chose the standard 60-minute course with our guide and the two of us, making a total of three people. At one point, my husband, who has only ridden three times, expressed his desire to try running a bit! The guide happily agreed and took us cantering through the hilly forest right away. After that, we cantered in a wide highland, enjoying an incredible riding experience that you can't find at other tourist riding clubs.

Since we cantered, we ended up with some extra time, so they took a longer route back, and the scenery along the way was absolutely stunning.

Not only was I thrilled that we could canter, but I was also impressed by how incredibly well-trained the horses were. I think many horses at riding clubs often disregard their riders, but the horses here were very responsive! With just a light touch of my legs, they would transition from a walk to a canter!

If you go to Hawaii, you definitely should stop by this place! The donkey was also super cute! The girl who took photos for us captured wonderful pictures, so I think it's a great idea to buy some as souvenirs!

乗馬は世界中で楽しめるので、旅行先では必ず体験しています。
ほとんどのクラブが体験乗馬で終わる事が多いなか、こちらはリクエストに応えて駈足を出してくれました。

ガイドさんと私達２名、計３名で通常の６０分コースを選択。
途中、３度しか乗馬経験のない主人が少し走ってみたい！とリクエストしたところ、ガイドの女の子は清くＯＫしてくれ起伏のある森の中をすぐに駈足してくれました。
その後も広い高原に出て駈足をしたり、他の観光乗馬クラブでは体験出来ないような素晴らしい乗馬をさせて頂きました。

駈足をしたせいで時間が余ってしまったということで、遠回りをして帰ってくれたのですがその途中の景色がとても素晴らしかったです。

今回駈足ができたこともさることながら、馬が驚くほど素晴らしく調教されていることに感動しました。どこの乗馬クラブの馬も大抵乗り役を馬鹿にして反応しないことが多いと思いますが、こちらのお馬さんはとっっっても反応が良いです！！足が触れるくらいの扶助で並足→駈足が出ます！

North Shore Sunset & Daytime Horseback Riding with Ocean Views - Gunstock Ranch

Great Tour

Reviewed by: JB12

This was a very nice birthday surprise from my wife. I've never gone horseback riding and my wife booked us a family tour and it was GREAT! I was scared at first because I've never rode a horse before, but our Ranglers Tate and Jayden were superb on showing us how to do everything! Tate and Jayden were outstanding. I would definitely ride again with them. They ensured our safety at all times which was a huge plus for me. The ride was amazing, relaxing, beautiful and calming. I could not have asked for a better birthday gift. Not only was the ride great but we all learned some things about horses. Our horses were great also! Def one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii! We really had an Awesome time!

North Shore Sunset & Daytime Horseback Riding with Ocean Views - Gunstock Ranch

A must do with Gunstock Ranch

Reviewed by: Marinesa Baez

OMG! I booked this tour for my husband's birthday today. It was simply amazing. Initially he was a little apprehensive, but once we started riding he really enjoyed the ride. Our guide was simply the BEST (Tate) He was very informative and knew so much about the ranch and the horses. He made the ride so much fun! We also enjoyed (Jayden) who was our other guide. We can't wait to go back because we will definitely be coming back here to do another tour. The scene was beautiful although it rained some of our ride we still enjoyed it and had a blast!! They make sure you are comfortable and are enjoying every minute of it. It was our kids first time riding as well. They had so much fun until they would like to get horses themselves now. You CAN'T go to North Shore and not do this activity!

North Shore Sunset & Daytime Horseback Riding with Ocean Views - Gunstock Ranch

Beautiful and Relaxing Ride!

Reviewed by: Cowboy Cerrone

Beautiful Ride! We just missed the hurricane that was forecasted to hit the island. There was no rain and the weather was fantastic. We did the beginner ride which took about an hour. We were able to see other animals on the farm. The farm is massive; over 600 acres I believe. Next time I would like to do the intermediate or advanced ride. The staff was very professional and polite. The tour guide was kind enough to give us a background of the history of the farm. I would definitely return and recommend to anybody that this horseback ride was beautiful and romantic. Try the sunset ride if you go with your significant other :)

Gorgeous Scenery

Reviewed by: Megan NZ

I booked this for my teenage daughter and I and we loved it!
The ranch is gorgeous and the scenery was amazing. The horses are beautiful and well cared for and the staff are patient and really nice.
Would definitely recommend this to anyone. We did the 1 1/2 hour scenic ride which is perfect for beginners and riders with minimal experience.

乗馬体験(0.5～2時間)　2歳から参加OKの子供向けコースやサンセット、貸切ランチ付きなど選べるコースで広大な牧場を満喫！＜ガンストック牧場／現地集合＞

It was really great!!! すごくよかった！！！

Reviewed by: あっきー

It took about an hour and a half to arrive without getting lost from Waikiki. I was really anxious since it was my first time renting a car and I wasn't used to the navigation system, but I was relieved to find it in such an easy-to-find location. I was about ten minutes late for the meeting time, which pushed past the scheduled start time, but we were able to start horseback riding without any issues. There were no Japanese staff or participants who spoke Japanese, but as long as you know some basic English words, communication wasn't a problem.

The ranch is very spacious, and there are plenty of animals like goats and birds roaming around, which is quite soothing. The horseback riding lasted an hour and a half, and for someone who hasn't ridden in a while, it was a sufficient amount of time to the point where my backside started to hurt. When we reached the top of the mountain, we were able to see the ocean, which was a beautiful spot for photos.

I enjoyed horseback riding at a leisurely pace, and on the way back, we were able to stop by the nearby North Shore. Compared to other optional tours where you have to stick to a schedule with others, this experience allowed us to move at our own pace, making for a day that felt relaxed both in mind and time. If I were to go horseback riding in Hawaii again, I would definitely want to come back here.

ワイキキからレンタカーで１時間半ほどで迷わず到着しました。
初めてのレンタカーでナビにも慣れないままのレンタカーでとても不安だったのですが本当に分かりやすい場所にありホッとしました。
集合時刻に１０分ほど遅れて予定開始時刻を過ぎましたが問題なく乗馬を開始できました。
スタッフや他の参加者に日本人や日本語が通じる方はいないのですが、最低限の英単語を知っていれば会話も問題なかったです。
牧場はとても広く、ヤギや鳥など動物もたくさん放牧されていて癒されます。
１時間半の乗馬でしたが久々に乗馬をしたわたしはお尻が痛くなるほどの十分な時間の乗馬でした。
山の頂上へ行くと海が見えるとてもきれいな場所で写真も撮って頂けました。
時間たっぷり乗馬を楽しめ、帰りは近くのノースショアへ立ち寄ることができ、他の方と行動を共にするオプショナルツアーよりこちらの方が自分たちのペースでゆっくり自由に行動ができ、心にも時間にも余裕のあった１日でした。
ハワイで乗馬をするならまたここでしたいです。

Let's run at a gallop. ギャロップで走ろう

Reviewed by: オオウチ

I rode at Sweetheart for two days on July 11 and 12 (the canter course was an additional $10). It takes about two hours to get there from Ala Moana by The Bus. There were a lot of children, possibly because Hawaii's schools are on summer break. When we arrived, there was no one at the reception. After informing a wandering person that we had a reservation, a staff member came out, and we signed a waiver before preparing the horses. The four of us enjoy riding outside both domestically and internationally, so we came here intending to gallop. As expected, we were able to ride at speeds of 40 km or more. However, I think it's important to inform the guide about the speed you are comfortable with, as it can be dangerous if you haven't experienced this level of speed beforehand. The canter within the riding club is limited to about 20 km, which feels like shifting from third to fourth gear in a car. We had lunch on a hill overlooking the North Shore, but the lunch box in the horse's saddle pocket got all mixed up due to the up-and-down vibrations. On the second day, we decided not to bring lunch and ate after returning. Also, the stirrups are often too long for Japanese riders, so if they don't fit, it's important to adjust them (or switch to a child’s saddle if adjustments aren't possible) to avoid falling off during canter or gallop. I believe it's better to communicate, even in broken English, regarding speed and other matters, as accidents are the rider's responsibility. Compared to riding in Japan, the sense of freedom is completely different, making it an excellent ranch for those who want to ride fast. (The walking course is just for walking, and the canter course is optional.) It's a pity that the time for each course is predetermined, limiting the options available.

7/11,12の２日間スｲートハート（キャンターコースはオプションで$10アップでした）で騎乗。The Busでアラモアナから2時間で行けます。ハワイの学校が夏休みに入ったのか子供たちがいっぱい。我々が着いても受付に誰もいません。うろうろしている人に「予約している」と告げるとスタッフが出てきて免責の書面に各人サインしてから馬の準備。我々4人は内外地で外乗で走ることを楽しんでいますので、ここでもギャロップで走るつもりで来ました。内容は予想通り40Kmかそれ以上のスピードで走ることが出来ました。ただし、事前にこの程度の速度を経験していないと危険ですので、ガイドさんにはどの程度で走るかを指示しておく必要があると思います。乗馬クラブのラチ内での駈足は20Ｋｍ位までですので車で言うとギアが３速から４速に上がる感じです。途中ノースショアの景色を見下ろせる丘でランチですが、馬のゼッケンのポケットに入れてあったランチボックスの中が上下の振動でグチャグチャになっていました。２日目はランチを持って行かないで戻ってから食事にしました。また、鐙は日本人には長すぎることが多いので、自分に合わない場合は妥協しないで調節（調節出来ない場合は子供用の鞍に替えてもらう）しないとキャンター、ギャロップでは落馬につながります。速度の点も含めて片言ででも英語で意思疎通が出来た方が良いと思います。事故は自己責任ですので。日本での外乗と比べて解放感がまったく違い、速く走りたい方には絶好の牧場です。（歩くコースは歩くだけ、キャンターコースはオプションです）コースによって時間が決まっており選択の巾が少ないのが残念です。

Kualoa Ranch Private Beach at Secret Island - Kayak, SUP, Volleyball & More

Fun times

Reviewed by: Lynn

Great day on the secret beach. Although there are only a few kayaks & SUP's, the 8 of us had plenty of time on them. Beach chairs provided and we took picnic. The area to use equipment is blocked off and is a tad smaller than we would have liked. Also the area is over a reef so if you fall in the water be careful. Enjoy

Horseback riding on Oahu Island. オアフ島で乗馬

Reviewed by: 自称　上級者

I got hooked on horseback riding on Maui and experienced trail riding on Hawaii Island and Maui (for the second time). It was my first time with a gunstock. I had a fantastic time at the trot, but during the second canter, the stirrup metal came off, which surprised me, but I managed to finish without falling off. The canter in the grasslands of Kohala was the best.

マウイ島で乗馬にはまり、ハワイ島、マウイ（二度目）、外乗を体験してきました。ガンストックは初体験。駈歩は最高に楽しみましたが、途中二度目のキャンター時　鐙の金具が外れて、ビックリポンしましたが落馬せず完走出来ました。キャンターは草原のコハラが一番
