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>

Gunstock Ranch was amazing. ガンストック牧場最高でした。

Reviewed by: ハナモゲラ

The horses living in the vast grounds were all very calm and well accustomed to people. It was refreshing to be able to run freely in nature. I will definitely use this again the next time I come to Hawaii!

広大な敷地の中で生活している馬たちは皆、とても穏やかで良く人に慣れていました。自然の中で思いっきり駆け足して乗れるのは爽快でした。次回、ハワイに来た時も又必ず利用します!

The only place to run on Oahu. オアフで唯一走れる場所

Reviewed by: CatTail

I requested the advanced course. A Japanese participant mentioned that this is the only place on Oahu where you can do cantering, and they said they visited various places before finding this one. They adjust to the participants' levels, but we started running early on (laughs).

The wind felt nice, and the scenery was very beautiful, making it a fun experience. The horses were all quite relaxed as well.

上級者コースを頼みました。その時一緒になった日本人の方曰く、オアフの乗馬で駈歩ができるのはここのみで、その方はガンストックを見つけるまでに色々巡ったそうです。
参加者のレベルにも合わせてくれますが、始まって早々に走りました(笑)

風が気持ち良く、景色もとても綺麗で楽しかったです。馬たちもみんなのんびりしていました。

Gunstock Ranch ガンストック牧場

Reviewed by: カオス

We are a family of five. My wife and I (over 60), our two sons, and our daughter are all adults, but we were nervous about our first horseback riding experience. However, seeing a child around seven years old riding before us made us feel at ease. The location has a sign on the left side of Route 83, and if you turn left, it's right there. You can also see the ranch along the road. The office is the meeting place, but there are no signs inside the ranch, so we went towards the back where there was a building, and we found a small office in a place with a few parked cars. There was no permanent staff, and after the previous riding group returned, the guide helped us with the check-in. During the one-hour ride, we climbed hills and maneuvered through trees, and everyone was satisfied. It was okay to ride with a small shoulder bag or pouch. Unfortunately, there was no horseback riding by the beach.

家族5人です。妻と私(60歳以上)・息子2人・娘1人全員大人ですが初乗馬ドキドキしていましたが、1組前に7歳くらいの子供が乗っていたのを見て安心しました。場所はルート83の左側に案内看板があり左折すればすぐです。道路沿いにも牧場が見えます。オフイスが集合場所となっていますが、牧場内に案内看板はなく、とりあえず建物がある奥へ行き、数台駐車している場所があったので行くと、そこに小さな小屋のようなオフイスがありました。常設の係員はいなく、前の乗馬組が戻ってからそのガイドの方が受付をしてくれました。1時間の乗馬で牧場内の丘を登ったり、木の間をすり抜けたりみんな満足していました。小さなショルダーバック・ポーチはつけたままでも乗馬OKでした。残念ながら海辺の乗馬はありませんでした。

Horseback riding with five family members. 親族5人で乗馬

Reviewed by: YASUKO

I had a mix of no riding experience and a little bit, so I chose the 1 hour and 30 minutes course to fully enjoy horseback riding. The weather was nice, and the beautiful grasslands and mountains were a sight to behold. Along the way, I could also see the ocean, and while enjoying the magnificent scenery of Hawaii, I felt like a cowboy holding the reins.

Emily, who led us the whole time, shared interesting stories about the ranch and occasionally mentioned the cows and calves we saw. My daughter acted as an interpreter, which helped me understand everything. The horses were impressive, and the saddles were comfortable. Each horse had its own personality (there were six of us participating), and we had a lot of fun.

As someone with a bit of riding experience, I definitely want to participate in a course here where I can gallop again!

乗馬経験無しと少し有りと色々でしたので
たっぷり乗馬を満喫出来る1時間30分のコースにしました。

The guide and the horse are both kind. ガイドさんも馬も優しい

Reviewed by: Asamama

It was my first time riding a horse, along with my 9-year-old daughter and my husband, aside from pony rides. However, the hour and a half flew by. The spacious ranch had remnants of an old rodeo arena, irrigation from sugarcane fields, and what seemed to be a weapons storage or air raid shelter used during World War II. They explained everything slowly and kindly, even to Japanese people who don't speak much English.

As we climbed the hill, we could see the ocean, and there were very old horses (34 and 36 years old, while the average lifespan is 25 to 30 years) leisurely spending time with younger horses. Wild pigs, cows, donkeys, goats, sheep, dogs, and chickens all looked happy.

The horses were smart, gentle, and safe. It was truly a valuable experience. I would love to go again.

9歳の娘と夫婦とも、引き馬以外では初乗馬。でも、1時間半があっと言う間でした。広い牧場には昔のロデオアリーナ、さとうきび畑の灌漑の名残、第二次大戦に使われた武器庫?防空壕?などがあり、英語はあまり出来ない日本人にもゆっくり丁寧に説明してくれました。
丘を登ると海が見渡せ、超高齢馬(34と36歳、普通寿命は25〜30年)が若い馬とのんびり過ごしていたり、野生の豚、牛、ロバ、ヤギ、羊、犬、ニワトリなどがみんな幸せそうに見えました。
馬達も賢く優しくて安全です。本当に貴重な体験でした。またぜひ行きたいです。

  • 私達3人家族に一人の女性ガイドさんがついてくれました。

  • 丘からの眺めは最高。行きと違うルートで降ります。

First horseback riding 初乗馬

Reviewed by: mia

It was my first time horseback riding, and I was very satisfied after just one hour. Before the ride, there was an explanation in English, but it included gestures, so even if you don't understand English, you can somewhat grasp the information. There were other participants (foreigners) besides us, and we had a group of five plus one guide for the ride. During the ride, the guide spoke to us in slow English (asking things like where we were from). They were very kind, which was great. At one point, the horse stopped moving, but the guide handled it well. It was cloudy that day, but the greenery made for a very pleasant experience. It's a bit far from Waikiki, but I recommend it for beginners.

初めての乗馬でしたが、1時間で大満足でした。
乗馬の前に英語での説明がありますが、ジェスチャーが入るので、英語が分からなくても何となく理解できます。
私たち以外にも参加者(外国の方)がいて5名+ガイド1名での乗馬となりました。乗馬中、ガイドの方がゆっくりとした英語で話しかけてくれました。(何処から来たの?等)優しい方で良かったです。途中、馬が動かなくなってしまいましたが、しっかりガイドの方が対応してくれました。
当日は曇り空でしたが、緑が多くとても気持ちが良い体験となりました。
ワイキキからは少し遠いですが、初心者の方にもおすすめです。

I participated with my 66-year-old mother and 11-year-old daughter. Although I couldn't speak any Japanese, the staff were very kind, so we managed to get by with our feelings. It was our first time riding horses, and we were able to enjoy it from start to finish. Both my mother and daughter were very happy. However, the long bus ride and the uncertainty of the time made us anxious until we got back, but we created wonderful memories. Thank you!

Beautiful place to adventure

Reviewed by: Camille

I took my daughter on a ride at gunstock ranch as a 12th birthday gift. We arrived 40 mins before check in and watched the horses get saddled up, and had a chance to see the newborn baby sheep! The guide, Garrett, was incredibly friendly and more then happy to answer all her questions and calm her nerves before the ride began. The 600 acre, family owned ranch is absolutely gorgeous! Amazing views the whole hour. Caves that have been used for TV scenes, big open fields of cattle, wild boars running around, rainbow etc. I would definitely return for more rides in the future, and will be recommending it to all my friends!

Reviewed by: あっきー

This was my second visit to Gunstock Ranch. This time, I mistakenly entered "Kahuku" instead of "Lai'e" into the rental car's navigation system, so I got quite lost before arriving... Upon arrival, I signed the liability waiver, had my luggage stored, and borrowed a helmet before heading out for horseback riding! The course was supposed to be one hour, but I think we ended up riding for over an hour. Last time, we had photos taken at the photo points, but this time, since the Travel Maker's donkey was with us (laughs), the staff member seemed to forget about taking pictures, so we didn't get any... However, the horses were all smart and gentle, making for a very pleasant riding experience. I would love to experience horseback riding here again on my next trip to Hawaii.

2度目のガンストック牧場。
今回はレンタカーのカーナビ入力で「ライエ」ではなく間違って「カフク」にしてしまったのでだいぶ迷いながら到着しました・・・
到着すると免責書類にサインをし、荷物を預かってもらい、ヘルメットを貸してもらいいざ乗馬!!
1時間コースでしたが1時間以上乗馬をしていたかと思います。
前回は写真ポイントで写真を撮って頂いたのですが、今回はトラベルメーカーのロバちゃん(笑)もついてきていたので、スタッフのお姉さんも写真のことを忘れていたのか、写真は撮って頂けませんでした・・・
しかし馬たちもかしこく大人しい馬ばかりでとても気持ちが良い乗馬体験が出来ました。
次回もハワイへ行った際はここで乗馬を体験したいです。

Horseback riding in Hawaii is the best! ハワイの乗馬は最高!

Reviewed by: プップクプー

I chose Gunstock Ranch from the many horseback riding plans available. Since I don't know about other horseback riding experiences, I can't compare, but I truly recommend Gunstock Ranch. First of all, the horses are calm and easy to ride. I had no anxiety at all. I didn't understand the English explanations very well, but it's reassuring even for first-timers. And above all, the course is fantastic. There are mountains and the sea, so I wasn't bored from start to finish. This time, I took the one-hour course, and I think it's just the right amount of time. If it were any longer, my legs might get tired...

たくさんある乗馬プランの中から、このガンストック牧場を選びました。他の乗馬を知らないので、比べられませんが、ガンストック牧場は本当にお勧めです。まずは馬がおとなしくて乗りやすいです。全く不安がありませんでした。英語の説明はよくわかりませんでしたが、初めての方でも安心です。そして何よりもコースが最高です。山あり海ありで、最初から最後まで退屈しませんでした。今回は1時間コースでしたが、調度良い時間だと思います。それ以上長いと足が疲れてしまうかも・・・。

North Shore Private Sunset Horseback Riding & Campfire Dinner at Gunstock Ranch

Best Ride on Oahu

Reviewed by: Nick

We did the campfire dinner ride. They keep it to 2 to 6 people. We were the only 2 on the ride that night so it was a wonderful private ride too. It was very pleasant not being in a line of 20 horses like other places we rode. The ride is very enjoyable. Beautiful scenery. Relaxing ride. Clean pathway. Fresh air. The campfire is at the top of a hill so it was a little breezy. We went in December so it was a little cool. Dinner was nice. Good size steak and shrimp, macaroni salad, rice, fresh fruits, smores. More than we could eat. The guide was pleasant and helped my wife the couple times her horse wanted to go another direction. She let me lead a few times while she helped my wife. We will definitely do this ride when we make it back to Oahu.

North Shore Sunset & Daytime Horseback Riding with Ocean Views - Gunstock Ranch

Fun day!!

Reviewed by: Torie

What is awesome about Gunstock Ranch is that it is in a very secluded area. The trail is very peaceful and we rode through grassy clearings and lots of cattle. It was a very small and intimate group (myself, my friend and the instructor), which I really liked because on other trails I've been on it involved following a long trail of people on their horses. This time I felt more in control of my horse. The horses are very well trained and know how to follow each other. I've tried to get mine to trot, but since I was on a beginner's trail it wouldn't allow me to do it. Also, the instructor, Garrett (hopefully I spelled his name correctly), was very pleasant and helpful throughout the entire trail.

Second visit, completely satisfied even with kids! 2回目 子連れでも大満足!

Reviewed by: kenjiro2003jp

I am a 45-year-old man. Two years ago, I participated in a 90-minute scenic course here, but this time I brought my 1st-grade daughter and 5th-grade son, and we participated in a 60-minute scenic course as a family of four. We rented a car early in the morning and it took about an hour from our hotel in Waikiki. We encountered rain in December, but by the time we arrived at the ranch, the weather cleared beautifully.

A young woman at the reception became our contact person. Almost everything except for the contract was in English, but I think it’s manageable even if you don’t understand everything. A year ago, when my child rode a small horse in Cairns, a Japanese person on a working holiday helped pull the reins, but at Gunstock, even my 1st grader rode a proper horse by themselves. The guide led the way, followed by the two children and then the couple. The kids were quite nervous at first, but after about 15 minutes, they learned to kick the horse's belly, which made the horse move, and they looked happy.

The distance differs between the 90-minute and 60-minute rides, but I think the height of the hills we climbed was quite different. Since we had elementary school children with us, the 60 minutes was sufficient, and we could see the beautiful North Shore sea. Along the way, we saw horses and cows grazing. Walking with the horses was pleasant, and the scenery was lovely, creating a wonderful feeling. While riding, the guide shared various information about the ranch, but with my language skills, I only understood about half of it. Still, it was a good experience for our family. The guide was kind and accommodating to us. (By the way, this was my second time, and the staff were all young both times.)

If we can go again, I would like to do the 90-minute ride with my family. We have also ridden at another ranch on Oahu, but we prefer Gunstock. The reception is just a small hut, giving it a rustic and pastoral atmosphere like a Western movie ranch. There are turkeys, goats, and dogs wandering around, and as you go further in, there are many horses. All of them are large and impressive, exuding both gentleness and dignity. I’ve been there twice, and the staff were all young both times. It really feels like America.

45歳男性です。2年前にもここで90分のシーニックコースに参加しましたが、今回は小1女子と小5男子の子供を連れて、親子4人で60分シーニックコースに参加しました。朝1でレンタカーを借り、ワイキキのホテルから1時間くらいでしょうか、12月の雨に降られましたが、牧場に着くと見事に晴れ上がりました。
受付の若い女性がそのまま我が家の担当になりました。契約書以外はほぼ100%英語ですが、わからなくてもなんとかなると思います。1年前にケアンズで乗馬した時の子供の馬はかなり小型で、ワーホリの日本人が手綱を引っ張ってくれましたが、ガンストックでは小1でも本格的な馬に一人で乗ります。ガイドさんが先頭で、その後に子供二人、夫婦二人が続きました。子供は最初かなりビビってましたが、15分もするとお腹をキックすることにを覚え、それで馬が動いてくれるので、嬉しそうでした。90分と60分では距離も違いますが、登る丘の高さがかなり違ったと思います。小学生連れなので、それでも十分で、ノースショアの海が綺麗に見えますし、途中に、馬や牛が放牧されています。馬と散歩するのは、景色も良く、何ともいい気分です。乗馬しながら、牧場のことなど、ガイドさんが色々と教えてくれましたが、私の語学力では半分くらいしかわからず、でも、それも我が家にとっては良い経験です。ガイドさんもこんな我が家に優しく付き合ってくれました。(ちなみに、2回目ですが、いずれもスタッフは若い方ばかりでした。)もしまた行けるなら90分に家族で行きたいですね。
オアフでは、他の某牧場でも乗馬したことがありますが、私達はガンストックが好きです。受付といっても小屋が一つあるだけで、西部劇の牧場のような、素朴で牧歌的な雰囲気です。あたりには、七面鳥やヤギ、犬が歩き回っていて、奥に進むと馬がたくさんいます。どれも立派な大きな馬で優しくも威厳を感じますね。2回行きましたが、いずれもスタッフは若い方ばかりでした。アメリカって感じです。

Reviewed by: ももこ

After passing by Kualoa Ranch and driving for about 20 minutes, we saw a sign for "GUNSTOCK RANCH." It’s not very big, so we actually drove past it once, but as long as you don’t miss that sign, it’s easy to find.

On the day of our visit, it was just the two of us, so we enjoyed a leisurely hour of horseback riding with our guide, making a total of three of us in the peaceful ranch setting. The conversation was in English, but she was friendly and approachable. The horse was well-behaved and walked closely behind the guide’s horse, so there’s no need to worry even for beginners.

We enjoyed seeing cows and peacocks roaming freely, and there was even a cave along the way, which was fun. I’ve been to the famous Kualoa Ranch before, but I feel like at Gunstok Ranch, you can truly enjoy a full hour of horseback riding. It was a bit disappointing that we couldn’t see the ocean view below due to the cloudy weather that day. While I preferred the scenery at Kualoa Ranch, I was ultimately satisfied with the experience.

クアロア牧場を通り過ぎて20分ほど車を走らせると「GUNSTOCK RUNCH」とゆう看板が見えます。あまり大きくはないので一度通り過ぎてしまいましたが、それさえ見逃さなければ場所は分かりやすかったです。
当日は私たち2人だけだったので、ガイドさんと3人でのどかな牧場をゆったりと1時間乗馬を満喫出来ました。会話は英語のみでしたが、気軽に話しかけてくれて、優しい女性でした。馬もお利口さんだったので、ガイドさんの馬にぴったりとくっついて歩いてくれました。初心者でも全然心配いりません。
牛や孔雀が自由に歩き回っている光景を見たり、途中洞窟があったりと、楽しかったです。
有名なクアロア牧場も行ったことありますが、こちらの方が1時間きっかり乗馬を満喫できる気がします。当日の天気が曇りだったのもあるせいか、海が眼下に広がる風景が見られなかったのは残念でした。風景に関してはクアロア牧場の方が好きでしたが、結果的には満足です。

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show

Amazing experience

Reviewed by: Katalina

It was the first activity out of four planned for our week. Everyone of us really enjoyed our day here at the PCC this was due to our tour guide mostly but all who were involved were also great. We had the best lunch at pounders and again the dinner was to die for. The breath of life show was an amazing experience. We definitely would recommend this to everyone we know. Aloha and Mahalo Nui loa.

  • Best memories ever.

Circle Island Sightseeing Tour & Full-Day Polynesian Cultural Center Tickets

Aahu Circle Island tour

Reviewed by: C & K Hartz

Thanks Jason for making our day a memorable one. The places we visited, the spots we stopped at and the information imparted by you was great.
The Polynesian Cultural Centre was worth this visit and more as we couldn't fit everything into 1/2 day. The students from the university were very grateful to their visitors but we were grateful to them for sharing their various cultures with us.
Dinner was great and the Breath of life show was superb.

North Shore Sunset & Daytime Horseback Riding with Ocean Views - Gunstock Ranch

North shore horse Back

Reviewed by: Eric James elizondo

This place at gunstock ranch was amazing the workers there were supportive right off the back. The greeting felt like home, no worries even though we were late due to the place due to traffic the team was very understanding. The 10,000 acre ranch was nice riding cowgirl and McAllen and being followed bullet the donkey was very romanctic. The horses were very easy to ride our tour guide did a good job telling us a little about the ranch what they have to offer and how we can learn a little about HAWAII history there. Me and my wife will most diffently want to come back and do the night dinner I'd enjoy this again prob try the advance racing of horses.

I signed up for a horseback riding experience in Hawaii for my honeymoon, something I had been interested in for a long time. I was really looking forward to it, but when it came time to ride, I felt a bit nervous. After all, once you get on the horse, you have to control it mostly by yourself.

However, that thought quickly faded. The well-trained horses (I rode one named Scarlet) followed the lead horse closely unless something unusual happened.

I enjoyed the various scenery, including grazing cattle, the ocean spread out below, and caves, while spending time with the free-spirited horses that occasionally grazed or shook their bodies. The hour flew by.

Although it was a short time, the horses moved differently depending on their personalities, creating a soothing experience that was different from just looking at the ocean.

A couple of points to note are access and clothing. First, regarding access: it's located away from Waikiki, so I think many people go by rental car. We headed there via the North Shore, but we encountered traffic near the beach along the way, which took longer than expected. I recommend allowing extra time for arrival.

As for clothing, there was a sudden rain during the experience. My husband and I were wearing long sleeves, so it didn't affect us much, but those in short sleeves looked a bit cold. This might be common for outdoor activities, but I think it's good to be prepared for changes in weather.

In any case, we had a wonderful time. I recommend this for anyone who wants to enjoy a side of Hawaii beyond just the beach.

ハネムーンでハワイへ、かねてから興味のあった乗馬体験に申し込みました。
大変楽しみにしていたのですが、いざ乗る時には少し緊張。何せ、馬にまたがったあとはほぼ、自分で馬をコントロールしなければなりません。
と、思ったのも束の間。
しっかり調教された馬(私はスカーレット、という子に乗りました)たち、よほどのことがない限り、
先頭のガイド馬に、ピッタリ着いて歩いてくれました。

放牧された牛たちや眼下に広がる海、洞窟などの様々な景色と、時折草を食べたり体を震わせたりする自由な馬との時間を楽しみながら、あっという間の1時間でした。

短い時間ではありましたが、それぞれの馬の性格によって動き方も変わり、海を眺めているのとは違った癒しの時間となりました。

注意ポイントは、アクセスと服装。
まず、アクセスについて。ワイキキから離れた場所にありますので、レンタカーで行かれる方が多いかと思います。私たちはノース経由で向かったのですが、途中のビーチ付近で渋滞が発生し、想定以上に移動に時間がかかりました。余裕を持った到着をお勧めします。
そして、服装。体験の最中に突然の雨。私たち夫婦は長袖着用だったのであまり影響を受けませんでしたが、一緒にコースを回っていた半袖の方が少し寒そうでした。屋外アクティビティでは当たり前のことかもしれませんが、天候の変化に対応できるようにしておくと良いと思います。

いずれにしても、とてもよい時間を過ごせました。ビーチだけではないハワイを楽しみたい方に、お勧めです。
