Oahu North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience - Daytime Tours

Beach Ride as Promised!!!

Reviewed by: Familyof4

This horse ride was all it was promised to be!! We rode on the beach for a good long time! My family and I were looking to do horseback riding that wasn't just on a land trail. Staff was friendly and helpful.
A little more expensive compared to the other locations on the island, but the horses are wonderful and location by the beach makes it even better!

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

north shore shark adventure

Reviewed by: Janny Buruma

i had a great time with the shark adventure crew. the staff was very funny and gave lots of information! the sharks were amazing but didnt come to close to the cage when i was in there which i was hoping to see. if u are going with a large group of people u dont get to be in the water long either which i though it would be 30min but only ended up 15 min at most, but all in all great experience and i would do it again and i recommend it to anyone who visits the island.

Wouldn't do this again

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

It was OK. No transportation goes to this activity to start with, so you have to rent a car to get there. They ask you to be the 1/2 hour early, but there is no good reason why because they tell you to go take a walk and are late anyway. The reason you need to bring a swim suit is to use their pool. It has nothing to do with the ride which is nose to tail and they not only would not late us take a camera but never volunteered to take any for us. The woman who seemed to run the tour had no personality at all. But the scenery was awesome :)

Not worth the money

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My granddaughters and I went for the trail ride in November 2011 and were more excited about this activity than any other we were doing. We were told to be there 1/2 hour early and we were, but we had to wait, not only for other people, but for the instructors who said it was just because they were laid back. We then had to go through 1/2 hour of lecturing about the horses being athletes and spooked very easily and exactly how to do and not do EVERYTHING - from how to hold your hands almost to how to breath so you didn't spook these magnificent animals. We were not allowed to take cameras because the click of the camera may spook them and we were never offered the opportunity for anyone to take photos of us riding anywhere - especially on the beach. The unpleasant female who did all these instructions never came out of her funk. When we finally rode, the horses walked nose to tail and very slowly and never showed any signs of spunk or being spooked by anything. When we were done,

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 good. 良かったですよ

Reviewed by: t.shiohara

The location is great, and the horse training is very well done, so the horses are calm and you can enjoy trail riding with peace of mind.

At first, we did a 90-minute family trail ride at a walk. Other beginner families also participated, and we were able to enjoy it safely and happily.

Next, we went for a canter and encountered many horses and cows while they were grazing. Advanced riders can also enjoy this experience.

There are no vending machines here, so I think it's better to bring your own drinks.

It was a ranch where you can experience the authentic atmosphere of an American farm. It was nice and simple since it hasn't been commercialized as a tourist spot.

ロケーションも良く、また馬の調教もとても良くできていて、馬もおとなしいので安心して外乗できます。

初めはファミリーで常足外乗９０分しました。他の初心者のファミリーも参加しましたが安全に楽しくできました。

続いてキャンター外乗しましたが、放牧中のたくさんの馬や牛と出会いました。上級者の方も楽しめます。

ここは自販機が無いので飲料を持参するほうが良いと思います。

アメリカの素の牧場の雰囲気を味わえるRANCHでした。観光地化されていない分、素朴で良かったです。

Me, I am not a horse lover. But I had a fantastic time. The horses were wonderful and easy to navigate.

My daughter, she rides every week. She loved the ride along the beach and really enjoyed riding western for a change.

My was has ridden before. She was a bit of a sceptic, but the beach ride got her too. She thoroughly enjoyed the ride and would love to do it again.

Expected Good -- Got Fantastic!

Reviewed by: Cyberherbalist

From what we had heard from some others we knew who visited the PCC, we were expecting a good experience, but results were beyond expectations!

The staff were consistently helpful and friendly, the presenters (in the village exhibits) were informative, entertaining and clearly loved talking about what they were demonstrating, and loved performing their traditional dances and skills. The Samoan Village demonstrator (coconut husking and fire making using simple materials) was extremely entertaining and I wish I had his muscles!

All that was very fine, but the capstone was the performance of "Ha! The Breath of Life". The performers are largely students at BYU Hawaii, but the performance was worthy of genuine professionals.

The food at the buffet (we didn't do the Luau) was very good and there was a great variety of foods available.

Highly recommended!

I gave "Value" only 4 stars because we are cheapskates and the price for such as we is higher than we would normally pa

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Excellent, excellent!!

Reviewed by: Cy Talbot, England

This trip is worth every penny if you haven't experienced something like this before, or even for another visit. They said we were guarranteed seeing some sharks and they didn't disappoint. On my trip we saw about 15 - 20 circling the cage.

Shuttle bus picked me up from the hotel on time and we were taken to the harbour in the north. Boat ride out to the cage was about 3 miles (20 mins or so) and then the passengers were split into 3 groups of 8, each group having 20 mins in the water surrounded by 10ft sharks. Great!! No need to be nervous, you're totally safe in the cage.

The staff were friendly and ready to answer questions.

Would recommend one of the earlier trips, i went for the 9am one.

One final tip, take at least two underwater cameras as the shots are amazing!!!

Saddle up

Reviewed by: M Ramsburg

The ride itself was very nice along the beach area. I was a first time rider and the staff work with me providing instructions on controlling the horse, so don't be afraid to try this experience if you have never rode a horse.

The only difficulty is that we were staying in Waikiki and the event took place on the North Shore. There is no transportation options offered by the event, but we rented a car for the day and were able to tour more of the island following the ride.

Overall, I highly recommend this activity.

Very interesting, time flew

Reviewed by: Lars D

The activity lasted 14 hours, but we were never bored and the time seemed to fly by. A great guide/bus driver in Henry, an entertaining samoan, helped greatly.

You get to see many of the famous beaches, mountains and other parts of Oahu, as well as the Dole plant (where we spent so little time that it was almost a waste) and the Polynesian cultural center.

The buffet was OK, as expected, but nothing special. The shows before and after though, were very good. A must see for all visiting Oahu.

Good value for the money.

Horseback riding

Reviewed by: Sandy

The place was about an hour away from Honolulu but that wasn't problem. The website said to be there 30 min early and we were but the horse handlers said that wasn't neccessary. They were short handed and we ended up waiting more than an hour to ride but the place was majestic so we weren't bothered by the wait. The guides prepared us and were concerned about everyones safety. The ride was perfect. They guides were professional and took time to take our pictures while we were on the beach. I would do it again and would recommend it to anyone visiting Hawaii.. It was a great family experience.

Boring! Boring! Boring!!!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

My family and I enjoy horseback riding but this one was not up to par. I booked a private lesson and was told we would be able to do more with the horses beside just walking them and also would not be a nose to tail ride but that's exactly what it was. We were told many things but none were true. A couple of the horses did not like having another horse so close to it's tail so they would constantly kick backwards. You're only on the beach for a short time to cross to the dusty path were you spend most of the time until you cross back over the beach to go back to the club. Our guide was also an unpleasant women who never spoke unless it was to tell us what we were doing wrong. It was definetely not worth the money we spent and would not go back.

Horseback riding has always been a really fun pastime for me, and I especially thought after seeing the ad on your site that this particular ride seemed different and unique. And it was!

The horses themselves are polo horses....and wow...are they beautiful. Very different from most ranch horses i have seen...and the ride itself...all I have ever been on have been on ranches along dusty trails or in the woods...THIS WAS ON THE BEACH...RIGHT BY THE WATER...IN HAWAII!! I honestly think I don't need to say anymore! On the beach...in Hawaii!

not what the website says

Reviewed by: Lesley Richardson

I choose this horsebackriding venue because of the website which stated they are not your typical trail ride. According to the ad we would not be riding nose to tail - that's exactly what we had to do--- also the ad stated we would be free to ride the horses to our ability-absolutely not, we were not allowed out of the line or to go faster than a walk or to go ahead of the guide-who was a most unpleasant woman. Also the beach part of the ride was very limited. The only high marks I give are to the horses!! They were not your typical trail horses. Overall I was disappointed, especially considering the high cost.

Having seen too much "Shark Attack" and "Shark Week" on Animal Planet and Discovery Channel, I wasn't too happy with my decision to do this activity. Though when I went in the cage, I wasn't scared at all, but fascinated by the beautiful creatures that sorrounded us. Just a tip; bring motion sickness pills. P.s. I'm not scared of sharks anymore.

It was interesting! 面白かったです！

Reviewed by: さみてぃ

We participated as a couple. My wife was initially anxious about joining, but once we got into the enclosure, she found the sharks to be beautiful and realized they were a safe species that doesn't attack humans, so she enjoyed the unique experience.

Even though small fish were swimming nearby, the sharks showed no signs of wanting to eat them, which might have been a bit disappointing in terms of excitement. We both talked about wanting to see more dangerous sharks like great white sharks next time.

We brought a disposable underwater camera, but it was difficult to take pictures because of the waves. I wish we had bought a waterproof case for a digital camera so we could take a lot of pictures while looking at the screen.

夫婦で参加しました。
妻は当初参加に不安でしたが、檻に入ってみると鮫はきれいで、鮫は人を襲わない安全な種類と分かったので、珍しい体験を楽しんでいました。

鮫は小魚が近くを泳いでいても食べる気配なしで、迫力という点では、ちょっと物足りないかも。
夫婦二人とも次はホオジロザメのような危ない鮫を見たいねと話していました。

使い捨ての水中カメラを買っていきましたが、波で揺れて写真を撮るのが難しかったです。
デジカメで画面を見ながら大量に撮れるように、防水ケースを買えばよかったなと思いました。

Thrilling experience スリリングな体験

Reviewed by: bobu

The waves were high, so it's advisable to take motion sickness medication. On the boat, I was swaying, and during the experience, I was swaying with the waves as well. When I saw the shark, I was surprised and scared, even though I knew it was coming. They provided a Japanese explanation for the Japanese guests. Since there wasn't anyone among the boat staff who could speak Japanese fluently, basic English conversation skills are necessary for communication.

波が高かったのもあり、酔い止め薬は飲んでおいたほうが無難です。船でゆらゆら、体験中も波にゆらゆらでした。
サメを見たときは、わかっていても驚いて怖かったです。
日本人には日本語の説明文を渡してくれました。

Late Entry perfect for our child!

Reviewed by: Mamacita

We easily could have spent all day at the Polynesian Cultural Center, and definitely hope to go back and do so someday! But for our 6-year old daughter, that would have been far too much. She enjoyed the canoe ride, the tattoos, the leaf weaving, and the poi demonstration. She is still talking about the dinner. Us grown-ups also loved the experience. The luau and the after show were exceptional! Far better than a previous, more expensive and over-rated experience on Maui. I think that if you only do one tourist activity on Oahu, this should be it, including the show. The HA show is WELL worth the price!
