I had been to North Shore and Haleiwa before, but this time I spent my time without renting a car, so I joined this tour. I had heard about Happy Trails from a friend beforehand, so I chose the canyon course.
I was able to thoroughly enjoy riding on the mountain paths with ups and downs, and above all, I was impressed by the intelligence of the horses! I learned various guiding techniques before riding, and although I was initially nervous about the leading part, I gradually relaxed and was able to enjoy the scenery. The weather was great, and the view of the ocean from the hill was amazing!!
I also had plenty of time to enjoy myself in Dole and Haleiwa!
ノースショア、ハレイワなどには行ったことがありましたが、
今回はレンタカーを借りずに過ごしたのでこちらのツアーに参加し、
友人から事前にハッピートレイルさんの話をきいていたので、
渓谷コースを選びました。
登り下りの有る山道をしっかりと乗馬しながら満喫することができたし、
何よりも馬たちの賢さに感動!
乗馬前に色々ガイドの仕方を習いましたが、
その一歩先行く先導っぷりに、最初は緊張していましたが、
徐々にリラックスして景色も楽しめるようになりました。
お天気がよかったし、丘からの海の景色は最高でした!!
ドール、ハレイワでの自由時間もゆとりがあって充分満喫できました!

I signed up at the invitation of my wife. At first, I thought, "Horseback riding in Hawaii?" but exploring the undulating course on horseback turned out to be an unexpectedly enjoyable experience. It lasted about 40-50 minutes and went by in a flash. The horses, originally trained for polo, were very well-behaved, and even small children seemed to be having a great time riding them. I can guarantee it will be a fun experience.
妻に誘われて申し込みました.最初は,ハワイで乗馬?と思っていましたが,起伏に富んだコースを馬に乗ってめぐるのは予想外の楽しい体験でした.40-50分?あっという間でした.もともとがポロ競技の馬とのことで,とてもよくしつけられており,小さいお子さんんも楽しそうに乗っていました.楽しい経験になること請け合いです.

Originally, it was supposed to be an experience with my daughter, but she fell ill on the day, so I participated alone. The driver and guide were experienced, making the ride enjoyable. First, I visited the Dole Plantation for the first time in ten years. After about 30 minutes of sightseeing, we went to the beach where we hoped to see honu (turtles). Unfortunately, they weren't on the shore, but they were nearby, coming up for air. Then, we headed to Haleiwa. I had originally planned to have garlic shrimp for lunch, but since I was alone, I switched to an acai bowl, which was delicious. Finally, we went for the horseback riding experience. With the experienced guide leading us, we walked slowly in a line, two meters apart. The ocean was beautiful, and I had a fulfilling time. On the day, there were four participants, and since the roads were clear, we had some free time in Haleiwa on the way back. Then, we headed to Honolulu. It was a very fulfilling tour.
本来なら娘と2人での体験でしたが、当日体調不良になり、私1人での参加になりました。運転兼ガイドさんの説明も慣れており、楽しい車中になりました。まず、ドールプランテーションに10年ぶりに行きました。30分ほど見学し、その後、ホヌ(亀)が居るかもしれない海岸に残念ながら浜辺にはいませんでしたが、すぐ近くにいて、息継ぎに顔をあげます。そして、ハイレアへ。本来ならガーリックシュリンプの昼食を考えていましたが、1人参加になってしまったので、アサイーボウルに変更。美味しかったです。そして、いよいよ乗馬体験へ。慣れたガイドさんを先頭に2メートル間隔でゆっくり歩きます。海が綺麗で充実した時間を過ごすことができました。当日、体験者が4人と道路が空いていたので帰路にも、ハイレアで自由時間がありました。そして、ホノルルへ。とっても充実したツアーでした。

In the morning, I was picked up at 8:25, but my daughter, who was supposed to accompany me, fell ill, so I participated alone. First, after about 15 years, I wandered around the Dole Pineapple Plantation for 30 minutes. Before heading to Haleiwa, I went to a beach where I might see honu (turtles). Unfortunately, I only saw honu coming up for air, but it was exciting to encounter them up close. Now, at Haleiwa, I had planned to eat garlic shrimp, but since I was alone, I changed to an acai bowl. As expected, it was delicious. Finally, it was time for the horseback riding experience. The horse I rode was well-trained and calm, but it seemed to be hungry and munched on the grass beside us. However, when I gave the go-ahead, it started walking slowly. It was a fulfilling 45-minute horseback riding experience. On the way to and from, I spotted honu from the car on the coast. Since the road was clear, we were able to take some time in Haleiwa on the way back. I had a wonderful experience until the evening.
朝、8:25にピックアップでしたが、同行するはずの娘が体調不良になり、1人での参加となりました。まずは、15年ぶり?に、ドールパイナップルプランテーションで30分フラフラ。ハイレアに向かう前にホヌさん(亀さん)いるかも知れない海岸へ、残念ながら息継ぎをするホヌさんしか見えませんでしたが、近距離での遭遇。なんだか、ワクワクしました。さて、ハイレアでは、ガーリックシュリンプを食べる予定でしたが、1人では無理なので、アサイーボウルに変更。言わずと知れた美味しさ。そして、いよいよ今回のイベント乗馬体験です。慣れたお馬さんはお利口でおとなしく、途中、お腹すいている時間だったらしく、横の草をむしゃむしゃ。しかし、GOサインを出すと、ゆっくり歩き出します。充実した45分の乗馬体験でした。行き帰り共、海岸にいる、ホヌさんを車上から確認しました。道が空いていたので帰路にもハイレアで時間を取ってくださいました。夕方までとても良い体験ができました。

Riding was of course fun, but I was also able to see sea turtles, and the garlic shrimp lunch recommended by the guide was very delicious. If I had to say something, I was disappointed that there was little time for shopping.

I think this tour, which allows you to enjoy both horseback riding and sightseeing in Haleiwa, is a great deal. However, if the weather is bad, the course will change to the seaside route, so having sunny weather is the most important thing. This time, it was sunny with no issues; the only thing left was to avoid falling off the horse. I enjoyed about 90 minutes of horseback riding without any falls. PS. Am I the only one who feels that the taste of the garlic shrimp in Haleiwa has declined?
乗馬とハレイワ観光の両方ができるこのツアーはお得だと思います。でも天候が悪いと海辺コースに変更なるため、晴れる事が一番重要です。今回は晴れで問題なし、後は落馬をしない事だけです。落馬もなく約90分の乗馬を楽しみました。PS.ハレイワのガーリックシュリンプの味が落ちたと感じたのは私だけでしょうか?

You can feel like you are traveling in the great outdoors. The horses are smart, and I felt safe riding even as a beginner. On the course, there were cows grazing, we walked through the forest, and we could see the ocean from a high point. This was truly the essence of horseback riding in Hawaii! They also stop along the way so you can take photos.
However, the guide is a very nice person, but since they don't speak Japanese, the instructions on how to ride and handle the horse are given in English. It might be a bit difficult for those who don't understand any English...
I recommend it for those who have a car and can understand a little bit of English!
大自然の中を自分で旅しているような気分になれます。
お馬さんも賢くて初めてでも安心して乗れました。
回るコースでは牛が放牧されていたり、森の中を歩いたり、高台から海がみえたり、、
これぞハワイの乗馬!というのが堪能出来ました。
途中で止まってくれるので写真も撮れます
ただ
ガイドさんはとてもいい人ですが、
日本語が出来ないので、お馬さんの乗り方・扱い方英語で説明されます。
英語が一切分からない方は少し難しいかも…
車があって、英単語が少し聞き取れる方にはオススメです!

I had a horseback riding experience with my husband. On the day we made our reservation, it was canceled due to heavy rain the day before, but we were able to quickly reschedule and go horseback riding. I had previously ridden at a different place, but this one felt more homey, and the instructor was very nice. They taught us how to ride and handle the horses in a clear and thorough manner. The course took us through the great outdoors for just under an hour. We saw some cute cows along the way. We also had a view of the ocean. Unlike the previous riding place, we were able to stop along the way for photo opportunities. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to visit this riding stable again.
主人と一緒に乗馬体験をしました。予約した日、前日は大雨でキャンセルになりましたが、直ぐに予約を取り直し乗馬をする事ができました。以前は違う所でしましたがこちらの方がアットホームで、インストラクターの方もとても良い方でした。丁寧に乗り方,馬の操り方を分かりやすく教えて下さいました。コースは大自然の中を1時間弱回りました。途中に牛がいてとても可愛かったです。海が見渡せました。以前の乗馬場ではなかった途中で止まって写真撮影もしておただけました。又ハワイに行く機会があればこちらの乗馬場に再度お邪魔したいです

It was unfortunately rainy, but it was really, really great. Our guide was Japanese and shared a lot of useful information about the current situation in Hawaii, the importance of seat belts, and other helpful tips, making the bus ride enjoyable.
In Haleiwa, despite the rain, we were able to tour the area by bus, and the guide provided various information beforehand, which made it very easy and efficient to get around. Personally, Teddy's Bigger Burgers was incredibly delicious...
I thought I might not be able to see the sea turtles because of the rain, but I was able to! I was so happy.
And above all, horseback riding! It was really great. As the name suggests, we walked along the beach the whole time. It felt quite relaxed, in an American way, but that allowed for a lot of interaction with the horses, which was fun. The horse I rode was a mischievous one that kept wandering off the line to eat grass, but the instructor only stepped in during those moments. It was a shame it rained, so I’d like to try again on a sunny day! I'm glad I participated!!
あいにくの雨だったのですが、すごくすごく良かったです。日本人のガイドさんで、ハワイの現状、シードベルトの大切さ笑、耳寄り情報など、ためになる情報もたくさん教えてくれて、バスに乗ってるだけで楽しかったですね。
ハレイワでは、あいにくの雨だったのですが、ハレイワの道を一通り全てバスで周り、ガイドさんが事前に色々案内した上で、降ろしてくれる流れだったので、とてもわかりやすく効率的にまわることができました。個人的にテディーズバーガーがとろけるほど美味しかったです…
ウミガメは雨だったので無理かなーと半分諦めていたのですが、見ることができました!嬉しかったです。
そしてなんといっても乗馬!すごくよかったですよ。その名の通り、海辺をずっと歩きます。アメリカっぽく結構放置?笑気味だったのですが、そのぶん馬と交流ができて、楽しかったです。わたしが乗った馬はやんちゃな馬で、すぐ列からはみ出して草を食べに行っちゃう男の子だったのですが、そういう時にのみインストラクターのおじさんが対応してくれました。雨だったのだけ残念だったので、晴れの時にまた挑戦したいな!と思います。参加してよかったです!!

I was able to enjoy horseback riding while looking at the ocean, which was very pleasant. It's a shame that I could only take one photo while riding the horse, and I couldn't stop it from eating grass. The guide shared various stories while driving, which was helpful.

I booked this horseback riding tour because my boyfriend has expressed how much he has always wanted to ride a horse. I did a quick search and Veltra had this awesome offer for a 2-for-1 which I found perfect as a surprise for him! I booked it and got confirmation very quickly.
We were coming from Honolulu so the drive took about an hour. Our booking was at 2pm and check-in was at 1:30pm. The early check-in was for the explanation of the liability and consent form while they prepared the horses. There was the two of us plus a small family of three. Helmets are recommended but not required- they are free to use. (If opt to not use a helmet, you must sign a section on the liability form) Around 10 minutes before 2pm, they explain and demonstrate how to ride and take care of our horses. We get on and begin the tour shortly after 2pm!
We got lucky with the weather! When we first arrived, it was grey, cloudy and started to drizzle. By the time we began our horse ride it turned sunny! Leanna was our guide and she is the sweetest person! We were all beginning horseback riders so we went at a good pace. She talked about the range, answered our questions, asked about ourselves, and made sure we were all comfortable and in control of our horses throughout the entire tour. The trail included uphill, downhill, and flat plains. The top view was absolutely stunning. We got to see the beautiful blue ocean in-front of us and the Ko'olau mountains behind us. Leanna even took our photos and they came out amazing. It was so serene, sunny and not too hot because there were cool breezes throughout that hour trail ride.
This is definitely an experience of a lifetime. I am so incredibly happy we got to do this! The views were breathtaking and I will be attaching photos even though the real thing is 1000 times better! We'll be doing it again the next time we get the chance. Thank you so much Leanna and Gunstock Range for a lovely time and thank you Veltra for the great offer!
Aloha!
Thank you for your great review. We hope you had a nice time and hope to see you again soon!

My wife and I were in Hawaii for our honeymoon and wanted to venture out to the north shore of Oahu to get a taste of the landscape out there. I booked a horseback riding tour for our first full day in Oahu, and even though we had to get up early to make it out in time for our ride, it was SO worth it. Everything with the ride and staff at Gunstock ranch was perfect. Finding the ranch was easy and the signs leading to where we needed to go were so clear. We showed up a little early and our tour guide was still grooming and prepping the horses for the day, but she let us wander around and meet some of the horses. She was so kind and informative and did an amazing job leading our ride. She was patient and very clear in her instructions, and even though our ride was only 1 hour I feel like she went above and beyond to pack as much as she could into our hour ride! The service from Gunstock ranch was TOP NOTCH and I would HIGHLY recommend anybody to check it out. Even if the price seems a little high, it was so worth it and I can guarantee you will not regret making the trek out and taking a trail ride with Gunstock ranch. The location / area is so beautiful, we even saw a full and amazing rainbow the morning of our ride. If I could give this company / this ride 6 stars I would! I will definitely come back again next time we are on the island!

I participated in a horseback riding experience with three friends, making a total of four of us. There were two white people in the same time slot, but the two instructors staggered the groups a bit and led us separately, so we had a private group experience. Alex, who was in charge of us, had a great personality and provided us with information about the horses' names and personalities, as well as guidance throughout the ride. I could feel her love for the horses radiating from her, which made us feel happy too. We were blessed with good weather, took photos on a stunning beach, and had a very meaningful time connecting with nature. Fortunately, we also encountered a sea turtle basking in the sun, making it the best horseback riding experience that we could only have here!
13時からの乗馬体験に友人3人と私、計4人で参加。
白人2名が同じ時間帯にいましたが、インストラクター2名が少し時間をずらして2組に分けて先導してくれたため、グループで貸切の状態でした。私達を担当してくれたAlexは人柄もよく、馬の名前、性格や途中のガイドもしてくれました。彼女の全身から馬たちへの愛を感じてこちらまで幸せになりました。天候にも恵まれ、絶景の浜辺で写真も撮れ、自然を感じられたとても有意義な時間を過ごすことができました。ラッキーなことに甲羅干しで寝ている海亀にも出会え、ここでしか味わえない最高の乗馬体験になりました!!

I got a bit lost at the entrance of the ranch, but I arrived safely and waited for about 30 minutes until everyone who signed up for the tour gathered. (You can touch the horses while waiting.) Once everyone was there, the staff explained how to ride and how to hold the reins, and then we each mounted the horses with their assistance. We rode in a line along a designated course at a slow pace, so even those with no riding experience could feel comfortable. The horses seemed well-trained and followed the instructions smoothly. We rode for just under an hour against the backdrop of Hawaii's magnificent scenery, and then we returned to the starting point to say goodbye to the staff before parting ways. It feels great when the weather is nice! While I'd love to ride in light clothing, long pants and sneakers are a must. If you're concerned about sunburn, I recommend bringing a light shirt. We encountered some rain on the way, but it was sunny during the ride, and I had a lot of fun! The horses were very soothing!

I had decided to go horseback riding in Hawaii, but I struggled to choose where to go because there were various plans available. Since it takes a whole day, this tour is a bit pricey, but I chose it because it includes transportation and goes to Haleiwa, and I was glad I did. The horses here are all gentle, and even if they stop to graze a bit, they come back quickly with just a little tug. It seemed like the other participants' horses were the same way. I highly recommend it!

I participated in a monitor tour where the second person was free. We took the bus from Ala Moana to get there. It took over an hour, but the location was easy to find. There was an entrance to the ranch across from the bus stop, and after walking for just under 10 minutes, we arrived at the ranch.
On the day we participated, there were only two participants, so we were able to take our time. The experience was more about riding around the ranch on horseback, so it might feel lacking for those expecting to gallop on the horses. Also, we joined the first tour of the day, but it was quite hot, and I got sunburned in short sleeves, so I recommend wearing long sleeves even if it's hot.

At Kualoa Ranch, small children are not allowed to participate in horseback riding, but at Gunstock Ranch, kids from the age of seven can ride, making it a fun experience for the whole family. This time, I took my eight-year-old son and we participated as a family. It was truly moving to explore the great outdoors of the North Shore alongside the horses. The horses are well-trained, so even children can participate with peace of mind. The ranch itself is quite far from Waikiki, so I recommend joining with a rental car.
クアロアランチでの乗馬は小さい子供は参加不可ですが、ガンストック牧場は7歳からでも乗馬が出来るので家族みんなで楽しめます。
今回は8歳の息子を連れて家族で参加しましたが、ノースショアの大自然の中を馬と共に散策できるのは感動です。
馬の調教も良くされていて、子供でも安心して参加できます。

Wanted to ride on a beach and we were not disappointed. Angela was our guide and very enjoyable. My horse was a retired rodeo horse and my husband's was a retired polo horse.
The views were amazing. We rode along the ocean into a field and then back to the beach. Angela took our photos in the beach and spending that time with her and the horses was a dream come true.
I highly recommend taking Notth Shore Beach horseback riding tour. It is not safe for the horses to run in the sand sonif you want speed, it is not for you. But you will be sorry if a fast run on the beach deters you.

I chose this tour because it offers a newly revamped experience in Haleiwa with beach horseback riding. Our guide, Hiro, was very efficient, and we had the opportunity to shop in Haleiwa. The recommended garlic shrimp was incredibly delicious. During the horseback riding, there was an initial explanation in English, but Hiro was there to translate, which made me feel at ease. The seaside views were stunning, and I was thrilled to see turtles. On the way back, we avoided traffic while passing through Chinatown with a guided tour, making it a very fulfilling and packed experience.
新しくなったハレイワの散策と海辺の乗馬ができることからこちらのツアーを選びました。ガイドのヒロさんがとても効率良くまわって下さり、ハレイワではお買い物もでき何よりオススメのガーリックシュリンプがとても美味しかったです。また乗馬では最初に英語で説明されるのですが、ヒロさんが側について訳してくれ安心して乗れました。海辺の景色は素晴らしくカメも見れて大満足です。帰りは渋滞を回避しながらチャイナタウンをガイドしながら通ったりと盛りだくさんながらとても充実したツアーでした。

The guide only spoke English. During the horseback riding, my younger child cried a little, and I had some trouble because I couldn't communicate in Japanese to explain to the guide why they were crying. However, the horseback riding itself was enjoyable.
ガイドさんは英語のみです。乗馬途中で下の子供が少し泣いてしまったのですが、日本語が通じなくガイドさんになぜ泣いているのか伝えれなくて少し困りました。乗馬じたいは楽しかったです。

The horses were well-trained, and I enjoyed a calm horseback ride. Walking along the coastline was comfortable, and I was able to see sea turtles basking in the sun along the way. The scenery of both the ocean and the mountains was magnificent and moving.
馬たちもよく躾られていて、穏やかな乗馬が楽しめました。海岸線を歩くのは快適で途中で海亀の甲羅干しも観ることが出来ました。海だけでなく山々の景色も壮大で感動しました。

My wife and I went on an amazing first time horse ride. I would like to especially like to thank GRACE. She was patient and kind. My wife was very scared but she put her at ease and made her very comfortable. We had an amazing ride well worth the money! The instructions were easy to understand and to apply. The scenery was beautiful with views of the ocean and mountains. The horses were beautiful and gentle. We went up and down the trails which made the trails more enjoyable.Even the drive out to the ranch was spectacular which added to an amazing time. Thank you Grace we will definetly recommend the Ranch to everyone we know.
Thank you so much for your review, we are happy you had a nice time. We also like Grace, she is awesome! When you visit Hawaii again please make sure to come see us.

In the wide grasslands, I leisurely enjoyed time with my horse and friends. From the top of the hill, I could see Turtle Bay. The guide was also very kind and provided great assistance.
広い草原の中を、ゆったりと馬と友達に。丘の上からはタートルベイが見えました。
ガイドさんも優しく案内してくれ、とてもよかったです。
レビューをありがとうございます!楽しい時間を過ごしていただけたことを嬉しく思います。またお会いできることを願っています。

I had a great time! If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to relax a bit more in Haleiwa. My stay in Haleiwa was only about an hour as I was heading to go horseback riding. The garlic shrimp place I was aiming for opened about 15 minutes late, so I had to hurry and scarf down the garlic shrimp. It was delicious, but I wanted to savor it more and check out other shops as well.
とても楽しかったです!欲を言えばハレイワでもう少しのんびりしたかったなぁ。乗馬に向かうためハレイワ滞在は一時間位でした。お目当てのガーリックシュリンプ屋さんの開店が15分ほど遅れて急いでガーリックシュリンプをかきこむことに。美味しかったけどもっと味わいたかったし、他のお店も見たかったです。

I tried to go to Kualoa Ranch, but I couldn't make a reservation. So, I participated in this instead. Since there was no shuttle service, I was unsure how to get there, but I took a bus to the North Shore and enjoyed it thoroughly. Calling an Uber for a taxi was quick. Riding horses while gazing at the quiet sea without any tourists was elegant! Afterward, I was even allowed to feed the horses bananas.
クアロア牧場に行こうとしましたが、予約取れず。こちらに参加しました。送迎がないのでどう行こうか迷いましたが、ノースショアまでバスでノースショアを満喫しUberでタクシー呼んだらすぐでした。観光客のいない静かな海を眺めながらゆったり乗馬は優雅でした!終わった後に馬にバナナあげたりとかもさせてくれました。

My wife and I did this ride with our 2 kids ages 10 and 12. The ride was super easy with incredible views. The horses are super calm and barely move when getting on and off them. They are very well trained which makes the ride very pleasant and enjoyable. At times I felt like the horse just knew what to do with little instructions from me. The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. I especially enjoyed the scenery of the mountains and the seemingly endless amount of open land which surrounded us as we walked through the trail. The trail included walking up and down beautiful hills, under and around shady trees, all at a pace which was relaxing yet exciting. I can't say enough about this establishment and would recommend any family to visit this ranch.
Mahalo for choosing to ride at Gunstock Ranch. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your ride. We hope you will come again soon.
