The guide, who was of Japanese-Hawaiian descent, was enjoyable! I was able to hear about history and interesting anecdotes. Also, the tour took us to several places that would be difficult to visit on my own. Riding horses by the beach was incredibly refreshing.

I participated in a trip with my girlfriend. The general flow was picking up participants at various locations → a break at Dole Plantation → free time in Haleiwa → horseback riding experience. At Dole Plantation, the pineapple ice cream is a specialty and it was sweet and delicious. Haleiwa (in the photo) is a nice place where I could shop at the newly opened Snoopy limited edition store and enjoy gourmet food at a restaurant famous for garlic shrimp. I had no prior experience with horseback riding, but they kindly taught me how to ride. The horses were all calm and easy to ride. Being able to ride for over an hour while enjoying the scenery was a valuable experience. The guide was also very kind, the explanations were easy to understand, and they were friendly! It was a very satisfying tour.
彼女との旅行で参加しました。大まかな流れは各地で参加者をピックアップ→ドールプランテーションで休憩→ハレイワで自由行動→乗馬体験でした。 ドールプランテーションではパイナップルのアイスが名物ですが甘くて美味しかったです。ハレイワ(写真)は雰囲気のいい場所で、新しくできたスヌーピーの限定ショップで買い物をしたり、ガーリックシュリンプが有名なお店でグルメを楽しむことができました。乗馬は未経験でしたが丁寧に乗り方を教えていただきました。馬はみな大人しく乗りやすかったと思います。景色を楽しみながら1時間以上も乗馬をできるのは貴重な経験でした。ガイドの方もとても親切で説明もわかりやすく、フレンドリーでした!大満足なツアーでした。

It was a 1.5-hour horseback ride, but considering it took us 2 hours to get there from Waikiki, it ended up being just 1.5 hours of riding through the forest, which got boring halfway through.
1.5時間の乗馬でしたが、ワイキキから2時間かけて行った割に

The weather forecast predicted rain and thunderstorms, but it turned out to be cloudy and not too hot, which was actually nice.
During the Haleiwa tour, they asked about my personal preferences and places I wanted to visit, allowing us to spend our time efficiently. If I could wish for anything, it would be an additional 15 minutes of stay time, as that would allow for a more relaxed experience.
The horseback riding by the beach was amazing! The feeling of openness when we emerged from the forest to the seaside was the best! I was healed by the sound of the waves while strolling.
Next time, I want to try horseback riding in the canyon!
天気予報は雨、雷マークでしたが、曇り空で暑すぎずかえって良かったです(^^)
ハレイワ観光は事前に個人の好み、行きたい場所を聞いてくださり、効率よく過ごせました。
欲を言えばあと15分滞在時間が長ければ、ゆとりを持って行動できると思います。

During my trip to Hawaii, I participated in horseback riding along the beach at Hawaii Polo Club's North Shore. This was my second time riding since my experience at Kualoa Ranch, but the location was different, and it felt wonderful to ride along the coastal course while enjoying the gentle sea breeze. We got caught in the rain for a bit, but thanks to that, we were lucky enough to see a rainbow. The horses were well-trained, so there’s no need to worry even if you're a beginner. I highly recommend everyone to join and experience this wonderful feeling!
今回ハワイ旅行で、ハワイポロクラプのノースショアの海辺を乗馬に参加しました。
乗馬は、クアロアランチで体験して以来2回目でしたが、クアロアランチとはまた違うロケーションで、のんびり潮風にあたりながらめぐる海辺のコースはとても気持ち良かったです。
途中雨に降られましたが、おかげで虹も見ることが出来てラッキーでした。

I arrived at Dole 5 minutes before opening, entered through the back door, and was the first to get the Dole ice cup with toppings for $6.50, which I had previously given up on due to the long line!
In Haleiwa, I enjoyed the garlic shrimp at Camaron, which was recommended by our guide, and the rainbow shave ice from Matsumoto Shave Ice. We waited just long enough for those who were late to make it to the next horseback riding session, and I was thrilled when we found the two of them while slowly driving back. I really appreciate the consideration shown by our guide, Kaz.
During the drive, Kaz listened to everyone's requests and kept the atmosphere lively with stories and quizzes, so we had a fun time without getting bored.
My first horseback riding experience was much more enjoyable than I had imagined. The view from the horse was fantastic, and the scenery at Turtle Bay was beautiful. In the forest, there were moments when the hungry horse decided it was mealtime or strayed off the path, but as Kaz explained, the horse listened well to the gentle guidance, making it very cute. Horseback riding was amazing!!! I plan to include horseback riding at the top of my itinerary for my next trip to Hawaii.
On the way back, we made an unexpected stop at a macadamia nut farm (with free coffee and nut cracking), and I was able to take great photos of the murals in the Kaka'ako area from the car window.
It was also possible to get off at our desired locations, and after arriving at the hotel, I got off at Ala Moana and enjoyed shopping at my leisure.
Thank you very much, Kaz, for all your help. I truly appreciate it! (o^―^o)
ドールには開店5分前に到着、裏口から入り、以前行列で断念したドールアイスカップ入りトッピング付き$6.50を一番乗りでゲット!!
ハレイワではガイドさんオススメのカマロンのガーリックシュリンプ、松本シェイブアイスのレインボーアイスを食べました。
集合時間に間に合わなかった方を次の乗馬に間に合うギリギリまで待ち、その後Uターンしながらゆっくり車を走らせてお二人を見つけた時には感激しました。ガイドのカズさんの配慮に脱帽です。
車内では一人一人の要望を聞いて下さり、出来るだけ皆が楽しめるような話やクイズで盛り上げてくれたので道中飽きる事なく楽しく過ごせました。
初めての乗馬は想像していたよりずっと楽しかったです。馬の上からの眺望は素晴らしくタートルベイの景色はとっても綺麗でした。林の中では途中食いしん坊の馬が食事タイムになったり、道を外れたりするのですが、ガイドさんの説明通り手網さばきで馬は素直にいう事を聞いてくれるのでとっても可愛いです。乗馬最高!!!次のハワイ旅行の時にも乗馬は真っ先に予定に入れるつもりです。
帰りには予定になかったマカダミアナッツファームで下車(フリーコーヒーとナッツ割り)、カカアコ地区の壁画も車窓からバッチリ写真撮影が出来ました。
希望の場所でも下車が可能で、ホテル到着後に行きたかったアラモアナで下車しゆっくりと買い物を楽しむ事が出来ました。
ガイドのカズさん、大変お世話になりました。
本当にありがとうございます(o^―^o)

It's been a while since I've been to the North!!! I usually come by rental car, but I wanted to experience horseback riding on the beach, so I joined this tour. Although we were hit by a heavy downpour just before, it cleared up quickly, and I was able to ride safely. Since it was along the beach rather than on a road, it was a bit challenging to control the horse, but it felt great and was a lot of fun.
久々のノースに!!!いつもはレンタカーで来るのですが、ビーチで乗馬体験をしたくてこちらのツアーに参加させて頂きました。直前に激しいスコールに襲われたものの、すぐにあがったので無事乗馬できました。道ではなくビーチ沿いだったので馬を操るがちょっと難しかったですが、とても気持ちよくて楽しかったです。

It was my first horseback riding experience, and the explanations during the car ride were very clear and included some humor, making it easy to understand. I was able to enjoy the ride.
I was worried about getting car sick due to the bad roads in Hawaii, but the driving was very careful, and I was able to sleep soundly on the way back, haha.
For your reference, it is mentioned that long pants are preferable, but since my legs didn't touch the horse's hair directly, shorts were fine as well. Large bags were not allowed.
Selfie sticks are not allowed, but they took photos along the coast, which made for great memories.
I love Hawaii even more now. I would like to participate in the horseback riding course again next time.
初めての乗馬経験でしたが、車の移動中にユーモアも交えながら丁寧に解説していただきとても分かりやすかったです。
楽しみながら移動が出来ました。
ハワイの道が悪く車酔いに心配していましたが…運転がとても丁寧で帰りは、熟睡できました笑
ご参考までに服装は、長ズボンが好ましいと記載がありますが、馬の毛に直接足が触れないのでショーパンでも問題なかったです。
鞄は大きすぎるものはNGでした。
自撮り棒はNGですが途中、海岸沿いで写真を撮ってくれるので記念になりました。
大好きなハワイが益々好きになりました。

Previously, I had an experience riding horses at Kualoa Ranch, so this time I decided to try this tour. The tour, which included not only horseback riding but also visits to Dole Plantation and Haleiwa Town, was very satisfying for us as we aimed to ride horses! I thought the 45 minutes of riding time might be short, but I was able to see many beautiful landscapes and truly feel the essence of Hawaii! The timing of the other tour activities was just right, and during the transfers, the driver shared various stories, allowing us to spend a fulfilling half day.

The waves were high, so we couldn't see the sea turtles, but the weather was great, and the horses were very smart, making for a fun horseback riding experience!
Since I brought my camera, I was able to take wonderful photos with pineapples and the sky at Dole. I think it's one of the best spots to utilize your camera! Additionally, the guide provided us with little tidbits of information and insights into Hawaiian history, as well as future information about Hawaii, which was very helpful. There was so much information that you wouldn't find in a guidebook, and the local guide was, above all, the best guidebook!
波が高く海亀はみることが出来ませんでしまが、お天気恵まれ、馬もとても利口で楽しく乗馬ができました!

We participated as a family of four during the summer vacation. They came to pick us up at the hotel on time in the morning, and along the way, they shared stories about mango trees and former President Obama, making the journey enjoyable. They were considerate enough to ensure we had enough time for sightseeing in Haleiwa, allowing us to have a leisurely and delicious lunch. The main event, horseback riding along the coast, was so much fun that I can't even put it into words. They matched each rider with a horse based on the horse's personality. I was impressed by how many different personalities they have, just like humans. The horse for my elementary school son and me was very obedient, while my daughter and husband's horse was laid-back and a bit of a foodie, often stopping to graze, which made it a bit challenging! Those moments became fun memories as well. The view of the ocean from horseback was incredibly beautiful and refreshing. On the way back, the kids kept saying they wanted to go again! I would love to participate again as well. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience!
夏休みに家族4人で参加しました。朝も時間通りにホテルまでお迎えに来てくれて、道中もマンゴーの木を教えてくれたりオバマ元大統領の話をしてくれたり、と楽しい道中でした。ハレイワでの観光に時間が取れるようにと気にかけていただいたのでゆっくり美味しくランチを食べることができました。メインの海岸沿いでの乗馬はもう言葉にならないくらい楽しかったです。馬の個性を見ながら乗る人を決めてくれていました。人間と同じであんなにもいろんな個性を持っているのだと感心しました。私と小学生の息子の馬は従順な子だったのですが、長女と主人の馬はマイペースで食いしん坊な子で、何度も寄り道したりして苦戦してました!それも楽しい思い出です。馬上から眺める海も最高に美しく気持ちの良いものでした。
帰り道で子供たちはまた行きたい!と何度も言ってました。私も是非また参加させていただきたいです。
素敵な経験をさせていただきありがとうございました!

My child expressed a desire to try horseback riding, and after researching various options, I chose this tour that allows even a 7-year-old to ride for the first time. Other tours had age restrictions that we couldn't meet. Additionally, since I had never rented a car before, the fact that we could see the North Shore while horseback riding was a deciding factor.
The result was a great choice! When we stopped by the North Shore in the morning and visited Matsumoto Shave Ice, it was surprisingly empty. We thoroughly enjoyed the shave ice with my child. By the way, when we went back to Haleiwa in the afternoon after horseback riding, Matsumoto Shave Ice had a long line, so it was definitely the right decision to go in the morning!
After that, we moved on to start horseback riding. It was the first time for our whole family, but the guide explained everything in Japanese multiple times during the car ride, and the horses were well-trained, so there were no issues at all. My 7-year-old daughter seemed to have a lot of fun, calmly riding her horse while talking to it. I thought someone would be holding the reins for her, but that wasn't the case (laughs). She was really on her own.
The weather was great, and there were spots where we could see the valley and the ocean, which felt wonderful! My husband and the kids really enjoyed it too. It seemed like they appreciated that it wasn't just going around in circles on the ranch!
I liked it so much that I would definitely want to do it again when we go back to Hawaii!
子供から乗馬をしたいとの希望があり、いろいろ調べたところ、初めての7才でも乗せてもらえるこのツアーを選びました。他のツアーの乗馬は年齢制限にひっかかったので…。また、レンタカーは借りたことがないのでノースショアも見つつ乗馬もできるということも決め手でした。
結果は正解!午前中にノースショアに立ち寄ったときに、マツモトシェイブアイスにいったら、なんとガラガラ。子供とシェイブアイスを十分楽しめました。ちなみに乗馬のあとの午後に再びハレイワに行ったときは、マツモトシェイブアイスはすごく行列していたので、午前中に食べて正解でした!
その後移動して乗馬開始。家族みんな初めての乗馬でしたが、行きの車でガイドさんが日本語で何回も説明してくれたのと、馬がかなり調教されていたので、全く問題なしでした。
7才の娘もとても楽しかったらしく、自分の馬に話しかけながらずっと落ち着いて1人でのっていました。誰か手綱を引いてくれるのかと思ってましたが、違いました(笑)。本当に1人でしたよ。
天気もよくて、渓谷と海が見える場所もあり、とても気持ち良かったです!主人も子供たちもかなり気に入っていました。牧場内をぐるぐるまわるだけではないのが良かったみたいです!

The course in the mountains after the rain was a bit muddy, which made me a little anxious, but the horse walked very well. There were times when I slipped, but the horse maintained its balance, so it wasn't a problem. I think the course on a sunny day would also be nice, but the course after the rain was thrilling and fun. The boss doesn't speak Japanese, but the guide provides a thorough explanation before riding, and there are illustrated signs, so there's no need to worry.

The ride was good. None of us have ever ridden a horse on the beach, so it was a new experience. I haven't spent more than 20 minutes on a horse before this, more than a decade ago, so it was almost all new to me. We liked how the leader stopped us on the beach and took nice photos of us to remember the ride. The reason I didn't give a perfect score was that I think the leader of the ride needed to be more aware of the riding skill of the people she was leading and give advice on how to improve instead of just telling us what not to do.

Although the weather was a bit bad, we were able to enjoy horseback riding and had a great day. I felt that the horseback riding was a bit more active and enjoyable than at Kualoa. My husband had his first horseback riding experience, and he seemed to really enjoy it, saying he wanted to ride again after we finished.
We couldn't see the turtles in Haleiwa, as it seems there is a specific season for that, but I recommend checking the timing if you're looking forward to seeing them. (You can gauge the chances of seeing them based on the guide's comments, haha.) For lunch, we thoroughly enjoyed garlic shrimp and huli huli chicken and were very satisfied.

My first trip to Hawaii and the first option tour!
It was great that the driver was Japanese, and I could hear various stories.
At Dole, the pineapple and soft serve were quite substantial, but they were very delicious.
After that, we went to the beach to see sea turtles, but unfortunately, the turtles didn't show up. My wife was very disappointed, but we caught a glimpse of one while driving.
In North Shore, we had lunch and did some light shopping (we could have used a bit more time).
Finally, it was time for horseback riding. My horse was quite well-behaved, but my wife's horse was a bit stubborn?! We struggled a bit, but the sea breeze along the coast felt really nice.
On the way back, thanks to the driver's suggestion, we stopped by a nut farm, which was also delicious.
It was a really great tour. Thank you!

帰りは運転手さんのはからいでナッツ園に寄って頂きこれまた美味しかったです
とても良いツアーでしたありがとうございます
Thank you for participating. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed various places. The Dole soft serve, with its coolness and creaminess, is popular among locals as well. I understand that you felt there wasn't enough time on the North Shore... I will take your feedback into consideration. Please do use our services again next time.
ご参加ありがとうございました。
各所、満喫されたご様子よかったです。Doleのソフトクリーム、あの冷たさとまろやかさはローカルにも人気です。
ノースショアで時間が足りなかったとのこと… ご意見参考に致します。
次の機会にも是非ご利用下さい。

On the way to the horseback riding point, thanks to the guide who kindly taught us how to ride horses in Japanese, I was able to ride smoothly from the very beginning!
乗馬ポイントへ向かう途中の車内で、ガイドさんが馬の乗り方についてとても丁寧に日本語で教えてもらえたおかげで、最初からスムーズに乗ることができました!
Thank you for participating. The sea breeze and sky blue are the best, aren't they? We hope you will use our services again next time.
ご参加ありがとうございました。
海の風とスカイブルー最高ですよね。次の機会もまたご利用下さい。

The staff, who understand a little Japanese, were kind and taught us well. We were able to ride horses between the beach and the trees on the North Shore, and the duration was long enough for us to fully enjoy it. The weather was great, making it a perfect day!
日本語は少し通じるスタッフが優しく 教えてくださいます。
ノースショアの海辺と 木々の間も 乗馬出来て
しかも時間も 長いので充分満喫出来ました。
天気もよく 最高な日になりました!

When inexperienced riders go horseback riding in Japan, there are often people pulling the reins beside them, but here, the ranch staff leads the way on horseback, forming a line and taking about 1.5 hours to tour the ranch. There were many amusing incidents, such as the horses bumping into each other, starting to eat grass, and needing to relieve themselves, which made it enjoyable. Among the six customers, we were the only Japanese.
日本で未経験者が乗馬となると、オーバルコースで横に手綱を引く人がいたり、だと思いますが、ここでは牧場スタッフが騎乗した馬を先頭に、隊列を組んで1.5時間かけて牧場内を回ります。
乗馬した馬同士でどつきあったり、草を食べ始めたり、用をたしたりのハプニングが多数あって、楽しめました。
6人のお客のうち、日本人は私達だけでした。

I had been to the North Shore several times by rental car, but this time I joined the tour because some members were anxious about driving and I wanted to try beach horseback riding.
We left our hotel in Waikiki a little after 8 AM and returned by 3:30 PM, making it a convenient plan. Our driver guide, Hiro, provided a wealth of local information along the way and took us to various hidden gems, making for a fulfilling tour that I was very satisfied with!
For horseback riding, I got to ride well-trained horses and we strolled for just under an hour through the beach and forest. The weather was great, and we were able to enjoy a leisurely flow of time.
ノースショアは何回かレンタカーで行ってはいましたが、今回は運転に不安なメンバーだったのと海辺乗馬にもトライしたくて、このツアーに参加しました。
朝8時過ぎにワイキキのホテルを出て3時半にはホテルに戻る時間的にも楽なプランで、ドライバーガイドのヒロさんが、道中でも現地でもローカル情報を盛りだくさん折り込んで次々と穴場へ連れて行って下さり、凝縮されたツアーに大満足でした!
乗馬はしっかり調教された馬達に乗せてもらいビーチや森林を1時間弱散歩。天気も良くゆったりと流れる時間を過ごす事ができました。
Thank you for participating.
It seems you were able to make good use of the unique advantages of the package tour. We also offer horseback riding on the canyon course, so please consider using our services again next time.
ご参加ありがとうございました。
パッケージツアーならではの利点ありで、うまく利用していただけましたね。乗馬は渓谷コースの取り扱いもありますので次回も是非ご利用下さい。

I participated with my wife.
The location is quite far out on the North Shore, so renting a car is essential.
We don't use Uber, so I'm not sure how frequently it operates in the area.
There were seven participants, including us.
We were the only two Japanese people.
After checking in, there was a briefing for about five minutes, and then we got right on the horses.
The check-in and briefing were all in English, but the content was simple.
It included instructions like which way to pull the reins to steer and to stand up when the horse needs to relieve itself.
Even if you can't catch everything in English, you'll receive a printed notice in Japanese at the beginning, so as long as you memorize that, you'll be fine.
Now, regarding the horseback riding experience, after riding a bit on the ranch, we took a course along the beach.
Since it was along the beach, there was quite a bit of dust kicked up by the horses, and depending on the wind direction, it could get pretty white in front of you.
However, the view of the North Shore from the horse's back was extraordinary and the best part of the experience.
At the rest point, the guide took a lot of photos, leaving us with many memories of the trip.
We were lucky enough to see a rainbow, but unfortunately, the sunset wasn't very beautiful due to a lot of clouds. The guide also mentioned that it was disappointing, but clouds can't be controlled (laughs).
We returned to the office at 7:30 PM.
We were on horseback for a full hour and a half.
Although the accessibility from Waikiki isn't great, the special experience of riding along the beach is something you can't find elsewhere.
As of June 16, 2018, when I printed the voucher from Veltra, it mentioned that the parking lot was at the far left of the arena after entering the main gate, and that the gate should be closed after entering. However, in reality, the entrance to the horseback riding check-in office was at the next gate without entering the main gate.
妻と参加しました。
場所はノースショアのかなり外れの方にあるのでレンタカー必須です。
私たちはUberを使っていないのでこの近辺でUberがどの程度走っているのかはわかりません。
私たち含めて参加者は7名。
日本人は私たち2名だけでした。
受付をすませて時間になると5分程度のブリーフィングを行なってすぐに馬に乗り込みます。
なお受付、ブリーフィングは全て英語ですが簡単な内容です。
方向を決めるには手綱をどっちに引けとか、馬が用をたす時は立てだとか。
またもし英語が聞けそうになくても最初に日本語の注意書きのプリントを渡されるのでその内容を覚えてしまえば大丈夫です。
さて肝心の乗馬体験は牧場敷地を少し乗った後ビーチ沿いのコースを乗りました。ビーチ沿いなので馬が歩くとかなり砂埃が舞うので風向きによっては結構目の前が真っ白なんて事もありました。
でも馬の背からみるノースショアの景色は非日常感を味わえて最高でした。
休憩ポイントではガイドさんが写真をたくさん撮ってくださり旅の思い出がたくさん残りました。
私たちは運良く虹を見ることができましたが、夕日については残念ながら雲が沢山あったのであまり綺麗ではありませんでした。こればかりはガイドさんも残念だけど雲はコントロールできないと言ってました(笑)
オフィスに帰ってきたのは19時30分。
なんとたっぷり1時間30分も馬の背に乗ってました。
ワイキキからのアクセス性が悪いけど、ビーチ沿いを乗馬できるという特別感は他ではなかなか味わえないと思います。
ベルトラさんのバウチャーをプリントした2018/6/16現在、駐車場はメインゲートを入って競技場を左端まで行ったところ、更にゲートは入場後閉めてくださいと記載されていましたが、実際はメインゲートを入らずに次のゲートまで車を走らせたところの入り口(ゲート無し)が乗馬受付オフィスでした。
