I might have needed to mention this beforehand, but if I was expecting a title like "Enjoy the Ranch with a Course That Suits You," there was no level check or inquiry about my preferences; it was just a slow, straightforward walk.
事前に言っておかなければならなかったのかもしれませんが、「あなたに合ったコースで牧場を満喫」というタイトルを期待していたら、レベルチェックも希望を聞かれることもなく、ただ淡々とゆっくり歩くだけでした。

My son and I just did the 90 minute scenic tour. It was his first time and it was absolutely fantastic! The whole trail was very smooth and the view was breathtaking like no other. Our wranglers were very knowledgeable about the trail and very attentive. My son who is 8 absolutely enjoyed the ride and had no problem riding this trail. Definitely a ‘must activity’ at Gunstock Ranch!

There are individual differences, so I can't say for sure, but even someone like me who is not good with heights enjoyed it. The conversations are all in English, but the staff are all kind and teach you with gestures, making it a refreshing activity that leaves you smiling.
個人差があるので一概には言えませんが、高い所が苦手の私でも楽しめました。

The pickup was late, and I waited for about 20 minutes. It seems there was a problem, but I would have appreciated some communication.
The half-day tour took us from one end of Oahu to the other. I didn't have high expectations based on the reviews, but it was great to visit places that you can only reach by rental car. At Hanauma Bay, we only took photos from above, but the clear blue water was beautiful. There were many people snorkeling to see the dead coral reefs. Haleiwa had a rural town atmosphere and was very photogenic, so I took a lot of pictures. We stopped at the Hawaiian Coral Factory, and I thought it would be nice to enjoy trying on some items. I also found rings for about $15 at the edge and purchased one.
At the Polynesian Cultural Center, I learned about the differences in dances from various regions and had various experiences. The hula dance show on the boat was definitely the most wonderful part.
For dinner, I upgraded to the middle class, received a fresh flower lei, and enjoyed my meal while watching the show.
時間通りに迎えが来ず、20分ほど待ちました。トラブルがあったようですが、連絡が欲しかったです。
半日観光は、オアフ島の端から端まで連れて行ってもらいました。レビューからあまり期待してませんでしたが、レンタカーをしないと巡れないようなところばかりでよかったです。ハナウマベイは上からみて写真を撮るだけでしたが、透き通った青がきれい。死んだサンゴ礁?を見るためにシュノーケルしてる人がいっぱい。ハレイワは田舎町のような雰囲気でフォトジェニックだったので、たくさん撮りました。途中でハワイアンコーラルファクトリーに寄りますが、試着を楽しめばいいかなと思いました。端っこに15ドルくらいの指輪も並んでたので購入。
ポリネシアン文化センターでは、いろんな地域のダンスの違いを知り、いろんな体験ができます。船上のフラダンスショーがやっぱり一番素敵でした。
夕飯は真ん中のクラスにアップデートし、生花のレイをかけてもらい、ショーを見ながら食べました。

There were more sharks than I expected, haha. However, it was a bit disappointing that the seawater was slightly murky due to heavy rain the day before. That said, it was an issue unrelated to the tour, and since it was my first experience with the tour, it turned out to be a great experience!
予想していたよりもサメがうようよいてました笑
ただ前日まで豪雨だったので海水が若干濁り気味だったのが残念でした。

It takes about two hours to get to Gunstock Ranch by taking The Bus number 55 from Ala Moana. After passing by Kualoa Ranch, you will find Gunstock Ranch further ahead. There is only a sign along the road, so I almost missed the bus stop at Kamehameha Hwy + Opp 56-155. After getting off the bus and walking down the road marked by the sign, I arrived at Gunstock Ranch, where I could hear cheerful voices from a children's swimming class.
I arrived quite a bit earlier than the check-in time, so I spent some time playing with the horses and goats. After listening to the safety instructions, I decided not to wear a helmet and signed a separate waiver form. About 30 minutes into the horseback riding, we reached a hill where we could see the surrounding scenery, and Grace and Chad, who guided us, took some photos for us. The staff were very friendly and helped my mother, who doesn't understand English at all and is inexperienced with horseback riding, feel comfortable. I had a fulfilling two hours riding along a path covered with jungle-like trees on a very friendly horse, an experience I don't usually get to enjoy. I definitely want to visit again.
アラモアナから55番のThe Busに乗ること約2時間、クアロア牧場を通り過ぎ、さらに行ったその先にGunstock Ranchがあります。道路沿いからは看板が立っているだけなので、バス停である、Kamehameha Hwy + Opp 56-155 というバス停をあわや見逃しそうに・・・ バスから降り、看板が立っている道を奥に進んでいくと、子供のスイミング教室から楽しそうな声が聞こえるGunstock Ranchにたどり着きました。
受付時間よりだいぶ早く着いてしまったので、馬やヤギと戯れながら時間を潰し、注意事項などを聞いて、私はヘルメットをかぶらないことにしたので、別途既定の用紙へサインをしました。乗馬を開始すること30分、あたりの景色を一望出来る丘の上にたどり着き、案内をしてくれたGraceとChadに写真を撮ってもらいました。とっても気さくなスタッフの方々で、英語が全くわからず乗馬にも不慣れな私の母をしっかりとリードしてくれました。ジャングルのような木々に覆われた道をとてもフレンドリーな馬と進む、普段味わえない充実した2時間を過ごすことができました。またぜひ訪れたいと思います。

I drove from Honolulu.
The entrance is easy to find because there are signs.
You can take a leisurely horseback ride along the beach, and the photos turned out great with the ocean as the backdrop.
This is my third time horseback riding in Hawaii, but if you want to ride by the beach, this is the best place to go!
I apologize for sharing my experience a year later. I will make a reservation next month!

Did the same dive with One Ocean last year and was so impressed I had to do this again. This time, the sharks were even more curious as to our presence and came up quite close to us at 4-5 feet distance on some pass bys. Got some incredible 4K video on the footage. Sophie and Kevin were very enthusiastic about their work and Sophie’s passion for researching sharks really shows, giving everyone information about what we saw in he water with specific characteristics and personalities of certain sharks that they frequently see. Thanks again to Sophie and Kevin and see you guys for the 3rd time hopefully soon!

Compared to some ranches, there are hardly any Japanese people, and if you're okay with only English, I highly recommend it! The location is North Shore, just a few minutes by car from Giovanni's. After the activities, you can enjoy sightseeing in Haleiwa and also try garlic shrimp, so definitely go for it!
某牧場と比べて、日本人はほぼいないし、英語のみでも大丈夫なら非常にオススメです!場所はノースショア、ジョバンニから車で数分です。アクティビティ後にハレイワ観光、ガーリックシュリンプも楽しめるので是非!

I participated with my mother, and it was incredibly fun. The pickup location was very crowded with various departing guests, and after waiting for 20 minutes thinking the driver would arrive soon, I ended up calling and finally met the driver. It was my mistake not to notice that they were calling for me; I should have called after 10 minutes as it suggested. I ended up inconveniencing the other guests who were waiting on the bus. The driver seemed to be searching hard for me, and when we met, he greeted me with a smile, which made me very happy. Even if you're away from the pickup spot, you should immediately check if a flashy van stops, as "ZIP-LINE" is written in large letters on the vehicle. On the way, I enjoyed the coastal scenery, delicious bananas, tomatoes, and macadamia nuts that I cracked open myself. The zip line experience included climbing and descending on a rope bridge, going in various directions, and I absolutely recommend it!
母と親子参加、最高に楽しかったです。
ピックアップの場所が様々出発される方で大混雑、もうすぐ来るかと20分経ち結局電話をかけやっとドライバーさんに会えました。
呼んでくれていたのに気づかなかった私のミス、10分経っても来なかったら電話と書いてあるのでそうすべきでした。
バスで待たされた他の方に迷惑をかけてしまいました。
ドライバーさんは一生懸命探してくれていたようで、会った時は笑顔で迎えてくれとても嬉しかったです。
ピックアップ場所から離れていても派手なバンが止まったら即確認すべきです、車体には大きくZIP-LINEと書いてあります。
到着までも海沿いの景色を楽しみ、美味しいバナナ、トマト、自分で割って食べるマカダミアナッツ、つり橋にロープでの昇り降り、長短、後ろ向き、逆さでのジップライン体験、絶対におすすめ!!

This is a great place to learn about all the Polynesian islands aside from Hawaii. The only thing .. I would've liked for my son to have had more of a hands on experience with the different activities the center offers within each island. We had the ambassador pass and the tour took us quickly from island to island not really giving us a chance to engage in the activities. Or maybe I just thought it would be like the experience I had when I visited back in 2003. Regardless, the night show, Ha .. the breath of life, is a fantastic way to close anyone's night with a memory that will be treasured for a lifetime.

I took bus number 55 from Ala Moana Center, and it took about just under two hours to arrive. I checked the map for the bus stop where I needed to get off, and the driver helped me when I was getting off. There were two of us who experienced horseback riding; we had tried it about a year ago at Kualoa Ranch. This time, I chose Gunstock Ranch because they had a longer plan available. The horses were very easy to handle, and although there were times they didn't listen, the guide was quick to help. When we reached the top of the mountain, the view was stunning, and we were able to take commemorative photos, which made me very satisfied. I would love to experience this again if I have the chance! ☺︎︎

My wife and daughters (13 and 15) and I went riding at Gunstock Ranch. Booking online was a breeze, and our wrangler Kate was ready and waiting for us when we arrived. She efficiently set us up on our horses and went over basic riding skills. The horses were very healthy and well behaved. Kate took us on a 90 min ride around the ranch, stopping for a very scenic photo op at the top of the hill. The experience was wonderful, very organized and enjoyable. We will definately visit Gunstock again if we return to Oahu!

The experience itself was very good, but if I had to be picky, it would have been even better if there had been a "photo time" of about 5-10 minutes. It’s difficult to take pictures while riding the horse, so when we took a break on the beach, I handed my smartphone or camera to the instructor, who took some photos for me, but I couldn't get the pictures I really wanted. That was a bit disappointing.
Also, the rental helmets had a slight odor, so I think it would be a good idea to bring a portable deodorizing spray if you're concerned about that.
体験自体はとても良かったのですが、欲を言えば、「写真タイム」を5-10分程度設けて頂くとさらに良かったです。馬に乗って歩き進む途中で自分で撮るのは難しいので、ビーチで一時休んだときにインストラクターさんにスマホなりカメラなり渡せば写真を撮ってくれましたが、それだと自分好みの写真を撮れません。それだけが少し残念でした。
また、レンタルのヘルメットは若干臭いましたので、気になる方は携帯用消臭スプレーなどお持ちになると良いと思います。

Our advance ride allows trotting and cantering, however, we keep that group small (4 people).
