All Reviews for For 9 Year Olds

It was a blast! We had a great time and the location was amazing for our sunset ride! Our guides were very friendly and knowledgeable about the area!

I had an 11-hour transit time in Honolulu, so I made a reservation in advance to move around. The sky and sea were beautiful, and I had a great time. In Japan, we don't have such outdoor experiences, so it was nice.

ホノルルのトランジット時間が11時間あったので、あらかじめ予約して移動しました。空と海がきれいで、楽しかったです。日本では、こうした外のりはないので、良かったです。

This would have been an awesome trip if it hadn't been ruined by motion sickness. And I wasn't the only one affected, there were 6 other people hanging their heads over the side of the boat with me. This excursion is definately a do-over only next time I'll take the morning trip and start loading up on dramamine the night before. I want to mention, though, that the captain and crew were very nice and knowledgeable of sharks and shark conservation and I will go with this company again.

I went on this 3 yrs ago and it was much more fun. They no longer feed the sharks and they stuffed the tank with too many people. Last time it was 4 ppl inside cage this time they put 8 ppl in it!!

Getting in the water with sharks was definitely a unique afternoon! Our hosts weren't especially talkative but knew what they were doing and we all got a turn. If you're going to get in the water with sharks I suggest this company because of the plexiglass on the side of the cage. None of the pictures I took through the bars turned out because of the light reflection! Also arrive early to the dock! The sign is tiny, faded and at the far end of a parking lot. Took us 20 minutes to find where to go after arriving.

This trip was great!!!! We saw many large sharks. Water was pretty rough, a little hard getting out of cage. We ranged in age from 13 to 50 and everyone enjoyed it!!

The tour guide was the most personable, knowledgable tour guides I have ever had. She took the time to explain where we were, what was special about it and answered any and all questions. Would definitely use their services again!

This was a great experience! There were sharks all over the place, defiantly wasn't disappointed. The only bad part about it was all the people that got sick, & especially the one that got sick while in the cage. Everything else was awesome. I would recommend it to anyone going to Hawaii.

Great beyond my expectation. Wondeful experience would do it again

My teenage daughter really wanted this experience, my wife not so keen. It was well worth it, about 20 large sharks swimming around you whilst you are safe in the cage. Even my wife thought so. It was a good experience, the crew were good and organised.
The slow rolling sea can affect some :-)

Had ourselves a good time. Got sea sick on the boat ride though. Recommend you bring some gravol. A good activity to do while you are in Hawaii.

This was my first time ever riding a horse and they made me feel very comfortable. The views were amazing and Cassie was a fabulous guide! My husband and I decided to do this ride the night before our vow renewal and it gave us some beautiful memories to look back on! We would definitely recommend this ride!

This was amazing event!!!! It was a safe trip, and it was awesome seeing the sharks swimming very close. I'm looking forward to doing it again.

We had a great time! Everyone saw 3-4 8 to 10 foot sharks! Would sure do again!

While the scenery was excellent and the tour guides very hospitable, it was hard to call this a horseback "riding" tour. We walked the horses on a predefined trail, and while I understand the owner's concerns about the health of his/her animals and the variable level of riding experience of the participants, there should have been a chance to run, gallop, or at least trot on the animals to call it riding.

Sam was a wonderful friendly tour guide. I liked the flexibility of the tour, being able to do various activities and see many different things. The sea turtles were a highlight. I also enjoyed the history and personal anecdotes of the tour. It was the best part of my trip to Oahu.

We all enjoyed the ride. Savannah was a great guide and full of information on the local area. The horses were well groomed and behaved. The top of the mountain where we stopped for dinner provided gorgeous views. The dinner was good and so was the company. Gunstock Ranch was very beautiful, and the drive from Waikiki was beautiful too. I would definitely recommend it. Well worth it.

We drove to the North in a rental car and participated in horseback riding with our family. The Hawaii Polo Club, where we were taken care of this time, is located along the coast, with a dreamlike setting of white sandy beaches next to vast polo fields. Although I only understand a little Japanese, the friendly staff were very kind to us, and we had a wonderful time that made me want to come back for sure. The pleasant breeze of the North felt on the horse's back, the blue sky of Hawaii—just amazing!!! I highly recommend it.

　レンタカーに乗ってノースまでドライブし、家族で乗馬に参加しました。今回お世話になったハワイポロクラブは海岸沿いの敷地で、白い砂浜と広大なポロフィールドが隣り合わせの夢のようなロケーションです。日本語は少ししか通じませんが、フレンドリーなスタッフに親切にしていただき、非常に楽しい時間を過ごす事ができ是非リピートしたいなって気持ちになりました。馬の背で感じるノースの心地良い風、ハワイの青い空、サイコー！！！お勧めです。

Had a great time. We go to Hawaii once a year, and have gone on almost every tour. The best thing about this was the tremendous flexibility to do and swap activities. Not a "tourist" tour. Little fubar on scheduling, but the drive Harry made up for that. Time with Harry was as good or better than seeing the falls!!

I decided to come here because I heard it's the only place on Oahu where you can trot and canter. The sensation of running through the vast nature, feeling the wind while cantering, is just amazing!

I climbed a mountain and was able to see the beach from the top. The scenery is just beautiful!

Although only English is spoken, I think as long as you understand the terms for trot and canter, you can manage while riding. They also have helmet rentals, and you can easily go with just jeans and sneakers.

The location was a bit far from Waikiki, so I took a taxi. It took about an hour and a half one way, and the fare was around $130. It felt great to drive along the coastal highway. I think having a rental car would be convenient.

オアフ島で速歩、駈歩ができるのはここだけと聞いて決めました。日本では考えられない広大な自然の中を駈歩で風を切って走る感覚は最高です！
山を登り、頂上からはビーチまで見渡せました。とにかく景色が綺麗！

英語しか通じませんが、速歩（トロット）、駈歩（キャンター）の言葉さえ分かれば騎乗中はなんとかなると思います。
ヘルメットもレンタルがあるし、ジーンズとスニーカーさえあれば気軽に行くことができます。

場所だけはワイキキから遠かったのでタクシーを利用しました。片道1時間半程度、料金は130ドル程度でした。海沿いのハイウェイを走るのも気持ちよかったです。レンタカーがあると便利だと思います。

We have been taken care of by Gunstock three times as a couple.

In the world of horseback riding, there are not many places where you can canter, but this place never disappoints, no matter when you visit (laughs). Even if you don't understand English, the handsome guide leads the way and turns back to ask, "Is cantering okay?" The well-trained horses recognize that this is a place where they can run, so they canter comfortably.

Gunstock is the best!! We will definitely visit again next time!

ガンストックさんへは夫婦で3回お世話になっております。

外乗ではなかなかキャンター（駈歩）させてもらえる所が少ない中ここはいつ訪れても裏切らないです（笑）
英語がわからなくてもイケメンガイドのお兄さんが先導してくれ後ろを振り返り「キャンターＯＫ？」って声をかけてくれます。きちんと調教された馬がここは走ってもＯＫの場所だと認識しているので気持ちよく駈歩してくれます。

ガンストックさん最高！！次回も絶対お邪魔します！

We participated as a couple. Since we are attending a riding school in Japan, we were looking forward to horseback riding abroad. The handsome staff communicated with us in broken Japanese, and we enjoyed a walk on the beautiful beach of the North Shore. Then we did log jumps, and afterwards, we even got to canter, which made us very satisfied.

夫婦で参加しました。
日本で乗馬学校に通っている事もあり海外での乗馬を楽しみにして。
英語が話せない私達にイケメンスタッフが片言の日本語で対応してくれノースショアの美しいビーチをお散歩。
そして丸太ん棒のジャンプ。その後駈歩までさせて頂き
とっても満足できました。

I love horseback riding and have taken various lessons, but I had my first experience with polo in Japan, as there weren't many opportunities.

First, we practiced hitting the ball on the ground. After that, I hit the ball while walking on the horse, and gradually I was able to hit the ball while the horse was running. The horse was very smart and moved towards the ball on its own.

I was very satisfied with the added enjoyment of horseback riding.

I had a great experience in the beautiful nature of the North Shore.

The staff were kind, and even though I didn't understand much English, we were able to communicate through gestures.

Thank you very much.

乗馬が好きでいろいろレッスンを受けてきましたが、ポロは日本では機会がなく初体験でした
まずは地上で球を打つ練習
その後、馬に乗り歩かせながら球を打ち、徐々に馬を走らせながら球を打つ所まで出来ました
馬がとても賢く、ポロに慣れているため球を打った方へ自ら移動します

乗馬プラスαの楽しさで大満足

ノースショアの大自然の中、とても良い経験ができました

スタッフの方も親切で英語があまりわからなくても身振り手振りで意志の疎通が出来ました

ありがとうございました

Had great day. My grandsons and self really enjoyed it. Lots of time to wander around. Sam was great. Very knowledgable .answered lots of questions.really appreciated his friendly attitude.

I had a wonderful horseback ride along the coast. The staff were very friendly and made the experience enjoyable! I highly recommend it!!

海沿いを気持ちよく乗馬させていただきました。
スタッフの皆さんも気持ち良く接して頂き、とても楽しめました！
おすすめです！！

This is a tour that you can only experience here!! The location is on the North Shore, so it’s a bit far, but I definitely recommend participating. It’s very safe and you can join with peace of mind.

I signed up for the tour without transportation and met at the location because I had a rental car to enjoy the North Shore afterward. Since you can only get to the North Shore by car, I recommend going with a rental car.

The location is at the port next to Alii Beach, where there is a sign. There’s no one around, and it can be a bit difficult to find, so I recommend arriving early.

You will travel to a cage anchored offshore on a mysterious boat called "Dangerous Boat." About eight people will enter the cage.

You can see sharks from the boat, but once you’re in the cage, several sharks measuring 3 to 5 meters swim around you. When you throw food from the boat, you can see their fierce side, which is very exciting. It lasts about 20 minutes, but it was a lot of fun.

However, please note that Japanese is not spoken. After getting off the boat, there are showers at the nearby Alii Beach, so it’s better to park your rental car at Alii Beach! If you plan to go to the North Shore, I highly recommend it.

ここでしか体験できないツアーです！！場所がノースショアなので遠いのですが是非参加されることをお勧めします。とても安全で安心して参加できます。

私は、送迎なしの現地集合で申し込みました。それは終わったあとはノースショアを楽しむ為、レンタカーを用意していたからです。ノースショアは車でないと行けないのでレンタカーで行かれたほがお勧めです。

場所は。アリイビーチの隣の港で看板が立っています。誰もいませんし、ちょっとわかりにくいので早めに行かれることをお勧めします。

”危ない号”という不思議な船で沖合に係留してあるケージまで移動します。
大体８人くらいでケージに入ります。

船の上からでもシャークの姿が見えますが、ケージの中に入ると目の前を３～５mのシャークが数匹ケージの周りを泳いでいます。船の上から餌を投入すると獰猛な一面が見れて大興奮します。２０分程度で終わりますがとても楽しかったです。

但し、日本語が通じませんのでご注意ください。船から上がったらシャワーは隣のアリイビーチにありますので、レンタカーはアリイビーチに停めたほうがいいでしょう！ノースショアに行く予定があれば是非お勧めします。

My family and I had a wonderful horseback riding experience. We have been on many trail rides and this was by far the best. The horses were not your everyday trail horse, they were healthy and well taken care of. The staff was very personable and professional. I highly recommend the Hawaii Polo Norths Shore Beach Horseback Riding!! You definitely get what you pay for!

My wife and I enjoyed our visit and horseback riding experience at the Gunstock Ranch. We did not want to go to a heavily commercialized facility for horseback riding. There were a lot of animals at the ranch and the scenery was beautiful. The ride trail was nice and rustic which we wanted in our experience. The guide provided us great instruction and information about the ranch, the area and plants along the trail.
Our only improvement suggestions are for the restroom facility's cleaning cycle, grading and packing the access road and a more legible road sign.

Was such a cool day!!

Really glad we did this, was just amazing!! Recomend to all!!

Got a wee bit sea sick, so do recomend that people that suffer from sea sick to take some pills the night/morning before doing it, but it was well worth feeling a little sick as it was such a awesome experience!!

this was my 2nd time and it was different than the 1st, i love it and will do it again when i come back to Hawaii
