My family thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The MC was fantastic and funny. The flower and anniversary leis were a wonderful touch. The activities were fun. The show was very entertaining, impressive, and the food was good too! The waterfall and hike were fun before too. Thank you for a fantastic day and evening! Mahalo!

Amazing and warm welcoming staff on every corner; the performances are top notch, we were entertained to a great FINALE show, Buffet Dinner was overwhelming!

We loved and enjoyed learning a lot of things about the Polynesian culture! All the performances were just by fat the best. I love the activities in each country that you can participate in, hands on and fun too!

My son is a typical “everything boring” esp by the wnd of the day, but as soon as the lights went off for the “HA” show he was mesmerized and totally enjoyed it.

We wanted to experience the LUAU dinner but I think we did not look through good enough with the package we bought. Buffet Dinner was not bad at all…just missed seeing a traditional lu’au

Next time!

I loved it, if you don't mind getting alittle dirty and riding an ATV around a beautiful farm along the ocean! I could have stayed there all day playing on those ATVs honestly, our guide Micky was laid back and cool, it was good vibes all around. The only thing I wished was to be able to do some donuts in the mud highly recommend!

I recently went Oahu North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience - Daytime Tours / Standard Daytime Horseback Rides and unfortunately, it was not well organized. The whole experience seemed uncoordinated, and the pictures taken were unusable due to the way we were positioned.

I gave them 3 stars mainly because the two ladies we interacted with were nice enough, and the horses were well-behaved. However, the walk itself was not very scenic, and overall, it was a disappointing experience. I wouldn't do it again.

The weather was bad with heavy rain, but miraculously, there was a brief break in the clouds during our horseback riding, allowing us to enjoy a ride by the seaside. The course was flat and safe for beginners, with a view of the ocean. I believe we could have enjoyed beautiful scenery if the weather had been nice. We had the classic garlic shrimp from North Shore Tourism in the light rain.

天候が悪く豪雨が続いていましたが、乗馬の時だけ奇跡的に少し晴れ間が見えて楽しく海辺乗馬が出来ました。コースは海の望みながら平坦で初心者でも安心なコースです。天気が良ければ美しいん景色を堪能できたと思います。ノースシュア観光では定番のガーリックシュリンプを小雨の中食べました。

My first horseback riding experience in Hawaii at Gunstock Ranch became a wonderful memory! The instructors were kind and attentive. (I can't speak English, but I managed just fine!) The horses were gentle and smart, making it easy for beginners like me to ride comfortably. You can feel the richness of the animals living freely on the vast land.

Riding the horses while enjoying the beautiful natural scenery of Hawaii was a fantastic activity!

It took just under two hours to get to Gunstock Ranch by the Bus, but the changing scenery made the time fly by. I’ve decided that the next time I go to Hawaii, I will definitely go horseback riding at Gunstock Ranch again!

ハワイで初めての乗馬体験がガンストックランチでとてもいい思い出になりました！
インストラクターの方達も優しく丁寧に対応してくださいます。(私は英語ができませんが、なんとかなりました！)
お馬さんたちも穏やかで、賢くて乗馬初心者でも安心して乗ることができました。広大な土地にのびのびと生活する動物たちの豊かさを感じれます。
お馬さんに乗ってハワイの大自然の景色を堪能できるとても良いアクティビティでした！

ガンストックランチまでは、the Busで2時間弱でしたが移り変わる景色であっという間でした。
また、ハワイに行った際にはガンストックランチで乗馬をすると決めました！

I booked a shuttle service. Excitedly, I went to the meeting point, but the shuttle didn’t arrive even when the time came. I thought there might be traffic, but I couldn’t get through on the phone, and feeling sad, I returned to the hotel and called again, only to be told that my reservation hadn’t gone through and was scheduled for another day. I was stunned, and I had to quickly come up with other plans for that day, but to be honest, my schedule was disrupted. Since it was rescheduled for another day, my plans for that day changed as well. When I went on the scheduled day, the shuttle didn’t arrive again at the appointed time, and I was astonished. When I called, they hurriedly came after a while. I was exhausted from the morning. They were speaking English fluently, but there wasn’t even a single word of apology.

送迎付きを申し込みました。ウキウキしながら、
待ち合わせの場所にいきました。が時間になっても送迎が来ませんでした。
渋滞しているのかと思いながら、電話も通じなく、悲しくホテルに戻って電話をしなおしたら、予約が取れていなくて、他の日になっていると言われました．(全部英語)
唖然として、その1日は急遽他の事をしましたが、はっきり言って、スケジュールが崩れました。
他の日になってしまった為にその日もスケジュールが変わりました．
又、予定日に行ったら、また予定の時間になっても来なくて、あきれて、電話したらしばらくして慌てて来ました．朝からめちゃくちゃつかれました。英語でベラベラ話してましたが、すいませんの一言もなかったです。

I had the greatest time at Gunstock Ranch!
I would heartily recommend this activity.
Everyone, from the check-in, to the trail ride staff, and visiting the animals after the ride were amazing.
As a very novice rider, I was well instructed and had a great ride.

This was our second time in a decade visiting, and we were impressed by the displays, knowledge of the staff and the Breath of Life show.

This is an excellent opportunity to experience Polynesian culture.

Our tour guide Keoki (George) was amazing. He took us throughout the land and showed us all around the area. We didn't know what to expect when we went on this tour and this tour blew our minds. We rode for hours and the scenery was amazing. Keoki went above and beyond and took pictures and videos for us. We learned about the history, plantation and so much more. I love the fact that it's a private tour and only a few people were on the tour.
It made it so much more personal. Thank you Keoki! Looking forward to doing this tour again when we come back to visit.

Guides were fun, knowledgeable and made everyone feel comfortable and encouraged to go for it. Sharks were amazing and came so close

We enjoyed Toa Luau so much! Our children, 2 & 4, had a wonderful time as well. The cast/crew are the same people running the activities before the meal, and serving the meal, then putting on a great show - their hard work and enthusiasm is inspiring <3 I noticed their attention to detail in how smoothly the check-in, meal, and all the transitions went. Highly recommend!

Fantastic day of sightseeing the island Branndon was exceptional in telling us history of the island and the sights we saw our driver was exceptional also very adept driver. Would recommend this tour to anyone thank you for the service you supplied

Fantastic afternoon. Well organised, super friendly and had alot if patience with my 10 year old as it was his first time on a ATV. Tracks are well designed. Highly recommend also a bonus we got some good insight to local knowledge and information on the island.

This was the best vehicle experience I've had in Hawaii!
First of all, driving the 4WD was really fun!
There were various types of terrain, and we drove on slippery surfaces and off-road paths, which is quite an experience that you can't easily have in Japan!
Moreover, the stunning nature and the lively narration by our guide Kioki (I think his American name was Johnny) made the history of Hawaii come alive, and his precise driving support truly enhanced the experience!
Having lived in America for about 10 years, I didn't have any language barriers, but if you don't understand English, you might miss out on about 30% of the fun. Still, I think it's a tour worth participating in!
Also, be prepared to get covered in mud and dust! (laughs)

今までのハワイの乗り物体験で最高でした！
まずは、四駆のDriveは本当に面白い！
色々な路面があり、スリッピーな路面や道なき道も走って、なかなか日本ではできない体験！
そして、豪快な自然となんといっても案内人のキオキ(アメリカ名ジョニーだったかな)さんの軽快な語りでハワイの歴史や的確なドライビングのサポートで本当に楽しまさせていただきました！
　私はアメリカにも10年ほど住んでいたので、言葉の面で不便はありませんが、もし　英語がわからないと楽しさは30%減かもしれませんがそれでも参加すべきツアーだと思いました！
　あと泥水や土ほこりをしっかりかぶりますので覚悟しておいてください(笑)

The show was very entertaining and the dinner buffet was amazing , the Island shows are very entertaining as well we had a remarkable time, the weather was very pleasant but the rain started right after the show was over and we got wet on our way to the bus, even that was a lot of fun .

The weather was great, and we were able to enjoy ourselves! The staff was cheerful and really got everyone excited. However, there was one area that we couldn't do, and since there were first-timers, it was a bit disappointing that there wasn't the latest explanation provided.

天気にも恵まれて楽しむことが出来ました！
スタッフも明るく盛り上げてくれました。
1箇所出来ないところがあったこと、初めてやる人がいたのですが最新の説明が無かったのが少し残念でした。

AMAZING experience!!!! AMAZING crews!!! THANK YOU!!!

There was so much to see and do. We thoroughly enjoyed the demonstrations and musical presentations. We learned how to make poi, husk coconuts, and weave palm fronds, among other things. The dinner buffet was the best ever, with so much variety in the wide range of menu items. The theater presentation “The Breath of Life” was outstanding! Kudos to all the young university students who work so hard to provide such a unique cultural experience. Everyone was warm and welcoming. This was our second visit (previous one was in 1986) and we were not disappointed. We would return again in a heartbeat!

From start to finish the crew is extremely helpful, and fun! This is the best zip line experience I have ever had, definitely book this for your trip!

My friend really enjoyed it, so we decided to join the tour with transportation included. Since my friend came before the pandemic, it seems that some things have changed. We spoke with a guide who was wearing a badge from Japan and got an explanation, and we toured the center with the guided option. Thanks to the guide's arrangements, we were able to see almost everything in the park, and it was a fulfilling day. My friend said it was even better than the last time they visited, and we were able to have various experiences!

友達がとてもよかったのでもう一度行きたいとのことで送迎付きでツアー参加。
友達は、コロナ前のに来たので少し様子が変わってしまったようで日本のバッチをつけているガイドさんに声をかけて説明してもらい、ガイド付のオプションでセンター内を見学しました。ガイドさんのはからいで園内ほとんど廻れて充実した１日でよかったです。
友達も前回来たときよりも充実してたと言ってました、色々な体験もできました！

This was an amazing place with very informative information about Fiji, Tonga, Tahiti, Somoa, Hawaii, and other Polynesian islands. The Gateway Buffet was good with good variety and the Ha Life of Breath show was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend visiting!

Wow should I start off with the most delicious authentic hawaiian food I have ever tried..My whole family cleaned their plate..Including the dessert was delicious..The show was amazing so worth the cost..The host keep us laughing

This is a must do excursion with family when visiting Oahu. A full day of cultural background, canoe rides to island, interactive activities for everyone. Friendly staff. It's not enough time for us to see all the areas, so definitely will come back again next time. Highly recommend!

We loved the day, however we would consider bumping up to a private tour guide next time

We had a great time. Although we couldn't speak any English at all, we were able to communicate without any problems thanks to body language and the clear, slow words used! We definitely want to go again next time.

とっても楽しかったです。
英語は全く喋れない私達でしたが、ボディーランゲージとゆっくり単語をわかりやすく言ってくれて問題なくできました‼️
次もまた絶対行きたいです

I signed up for a horseback riding experience.

The horses were adorable, the scenery was beautiful, and it was so much fun!!

The horses were very smart and gentle, so I felt no anxiety while riding.

I was told their names, so I tried calling them out a lot ^_^

We took photos with the ocean in the background, which became great memories.

Also, the driver who accompanied us on the tour shared a lot of knowledge about Hawaii while we were in the car, which was really educational.

He talked about the Hawaiian language, Hawaiian plants, recent tourism trends in Hawaii, and the labor shortage, among other things. It was interesting since I don't often have the opportunity to learn about these topics.

For lunch, I wanted to go to Giovanni's for garlic shrimp, but I was taken to a different restaurant. I was a bit disappointed because I wanted to try Giovanni's. Since the horseback riding took a bit longer, we had less time to eat and had to rush.

I think we only had about 30 minutes to explore Haleiwa Town.

However, I was very satisfied with the day because the horseback riding was so enjoyable.

乗馬体験がしたくて申し込みました。

馬が可愛くて、景色も良くて、とーっても楽しかったです！！

馬はとても賢くおとなしく、
乗っていても不安はなかったです。

名前を教えてもらったので、たくさん呼びかけてみました^_^

海を背景に写真も撮ってくれていい思い出となりました。

またツアーについてくれたドライバーさんが、
車の中でハワイの知識を沢山教えてくれてすごく勉強になりました。

ハワイ語についてや、ハワイの植物、最近のハワイ観光事情や、人手不足のことなど、、
なかなか知る機会がないので面白かったです。

お昼に食べたガーリックシュリンプはジョバンニに行きたかったのですが違うお店に連れてってもらいました。ジョバンニを食べてみたかったのでちょっと残念。乗馬も少し時間がおしたせいか、食べる時間が少なく大急ぎで食べました。

ハレイワタウン散策も３０分くらいしかなかったと思います。

ただ乗馬がとても楽しかったので満足な1日でした。

A landscape experience that you can't enjoy in Japan! The instructor was also entertaining, and he took photos for us when we handed him the camera!

日本では味わえない風景体験！
インストラクターのお兄さんも楽しませてくれましたし、カメラを渡せば写真も撮ってもらえました！

Wonderful place to visit. Loved learning and hearing the different Polynesian cultures, the live interaction for each islands. The buffet was awesome and the breath of life show was exceptional, I would definitely visit again.

The reservations are easy - and complete. I was still recuperating from a surgery, so we secured a mobility cart, which is right at the entrance to the Polynesian Cultural Center. The bus picks up from several points in Waikiki; it is comfortable and also waiting right at the entrance-exit after the show is over. The day is extraordinary - the staff is so friendly and helpful, as we asked questions at the various Islands. There is a river cruise you can take - the Center is 40 square miles (think Disneyland) so prepare your walking shoes and attire accordingly. Terrific shopping before the Center actually opens. Take a poncho, because there is a lot of rain on that side of the island - rains quickly, dries quickly.

The buffet is amazing and delicious, and a real bargain if you're feeding starving teens! The show is exquisite. They help park the mobility cart everywhere, so if you have mobility issues - worry not!

Enjoy as much as we did!
