We are retired and this was a bucket list item. This was fun for any age an experience you take with you forever.
We made adventure friends and have pictures to share with our grandkids.
I highly recommend this for families with kids. A wonderful way to start a new appreciation for the ocean.

I was under the impression we were on a smaller shuttle bus, not a big bus. By the time we got picked up we had to sit in the back of the bus. Only a few people wore masks. I had paid more for this tour because I thought it was in a smaller vehicle. I saw many smaller shuttles and was told by the tour guide that this company used to use smaller shuttles but now went to the big bus. The tour guide knew a lot about the island that was interesting but it was obvious that he was sure high on himself. We spent a lot of time riding the bus and getting on and off. Last time I was on Oahu I rented a car and it was much more enjoyable.

I was picked up in Waikiki, and the driver explained the history while we first went to the Dole Plantation! We stayed there for about 30 minutes, including a bathroom break, and then headed to the town of Haleiwa!
The location was absolutely amazing! I felt reassured because the horseback riding instructions were provided in Japanese on the bus beforehand.
Once we arrived, the staff were very attentive, checking in on us and asking if we were okay, which made them friendly and approachable.
I've had a few horseback riding experiences before, but if I come back to Hawaii, I would definitely want to book here again!
ワイキキでピックアップしてもらい、運転手さんに歴史等説明してもらいながらまずドールハウスへ行きました!そこでトイレ休憩含め30分程滞在し、いよいよハレイワの街へ!
とにかくロケーションが最高でした!乗馬の説明も事前にバス内で日本語でしてもらえたので何より安心でした!
現地に着いてからもスタッフさんがよく説明とこちらの様子を伺い、大丈夫?と声をかけてもらったり、フレンドリーで親しみやすかったです。
乗馬体験は数回したことがありますが、またハワイに来たらこちらで予約したいです!
Thank you for your thoughtful review. There are many other enjoyable tour plans available, so please consider joining us again when you visit Hawaii.

Horses, Beach views, and GOATS! This horseback riding trails is one to beat, The staff was super friendly and ready to strike up conversation, the horses are gorgeous and friendly and the view! Nothing beats looking at the shore while on a horse, but most importantly they have these goats that you know are up to no good haha. Definitely will remember the experience and most definitely will be back again when visiting the islands

The whole tour was fantastic. My family and I had a wonderful time. Seeing the different cultures and stile of living and activities was astounding. The shows that they put on in each island was energetic and very informative. We also watched the final show the Breath of Life. Don’t want to spoil it so you have to come and see it in person. Part of our tour was the food that was included in our purchase. The food was phenomenal. So many different type of food from different cultures. Again you must come and experience it yourself. A five star in my books.

We had a blast with Morgan driving use around the 900+ acre Gunstock Ranch we saw a see cave, a WWII pill box, beautiful views of the North shore and the East side of the island. Lunch was at a peaceful shaded area on top of the ranch. And we had to try out the tree swing. Did I mention that almost all of the ranch hands are beautiful women. Thank you Gunstock we had a great time.

First and foremost, I have to give a shout-out to Ramsey because he was great. The kayak and experience itself was complete garbage. I was under the impression that we’d be at this beautiful blue sandbar in a glass kayak seeing all these beautiful turtles and looking at the gorgeous sea life underneath us. Come to find out, we would be kayaking at a disgusting creek with dead turtles and the nastiest water I’d ever be in with bubbles included. I watched a YouTube video where they advertised this website with a person on a beautiful blue ocean looking at sealife with this glamorous glass kayak. Meanwhile, I get a hazy plastic kayak with dead turtles in a bubbling green creek. Worst case of false advertising that I’ve EVER come across. I had to quit the excursion early because I was so disgusted and disappointed. I would NOT recommend this trip to anyone. Complete waste of time and money

I took my wife and 3 kids on this ATV tour. Keoki was our tour guide, and he did such a good job. What I really liked most about the tour were the different terrains we got to ride through. Keoki got everyone properly prepared for some of the thrills we'd encounter, and the kids weren't scared at all.
Overall, the kids rated it as their favorite day of our 10-day vacation.
Highly recommend!

This was an amazing trip and we had a wonderful guide Jo-jo who was super knowledgeable about all aspects of hawaii cultural, history, plants, food, birds etc...The bus was nice and air conditioned and the time stopping off at each location was just right. An 11 hour day is a long day but it didn't feel like it because we were so loving every step of the trip and jojo's stories and support was great!

During the drive, I found it fascinating to hear about the origins of Hawaii and current stories from the guide in Japanese. The Dole Plantation was also a perfect spot for a restroom break and souvenir shopping. The main horseback riding was guided by a kind elderly couple who owned the ranch, and it was enjoyable to ride through the forest course. Having only six people in the group made it relaxing and fun. It was my first time horseback riding, but it felt similar to walking a dog, and I was able to control the horse well. In Haleiwa, I tried the garlic shrimp that the guide recommended, and it was the best I've ever had. On the way back, I fell asleep and we quickly arrived in Waikiki. I'm glad I experienced this tour.
ドライブ中はガイドさんから、日本語でハワイの起源とか現在の話が聞けて興味深かった。
また、ドールプランテーションも丁度良いトイレ休憩とお土産購入になった。
メインの乗馬も牧場主の優しい老夫婦の案内で林間コースを回った。
人数が6人と少なかったのが良かったのか、のんびりして楽しかった。
乗馬は初めてだったが、犬の散歩と似ていてコントロールでき、良い子だった。
ハレイワでは、ガイドさんが教えてくれたガーリックシュリンプを食べたが、今までで一番美味しかった。
帰りは、寝てあっという間にワイキキに着いた。
このツアーは体験して良かった。

Hi Dan,
We use a deluxe motor coach for several reasons:
1. The coach has much larger windows than smaller buses and allows for better views.
2. The seats are much more comfortable than minibus seats.
3.The air conditioning system is far superior to smaller buses.
4.We have a dedicated ,professional bus driver AND a second person who provides detailed educational and entertaining narration without being distracted by also having to drive.
Minibuses have the same person driving and narrating.
Masks no longer need to be worn inside as of April,2022.
In order to see and visit the amazing locations on our adventure we have to drive over 100 miles so you not only have the opportunity to visit O'ahu's premier attractions but also see some of the best scenery on Earth.
With Aloha
