Awesome excursions and the best tour guides! This place is wonderful and a MUST SEE! We did a series of activities here including horseback riding with Rebecca (which was my personal favorite). We also did UTV riding with Matt and Crystal which was awesome and both myself and my husband got to drive! Lastly we did the zip lining tour which was on our bucket list for Hawaii and it did NOT disappoint (ugh I can’t remember our awesome tour guides names)! All of the tour guides here are amazing! They all were able to answer questions about Hawaii, the ranch itself, the culture and history. Would highly recommend any of the tours here!

Refund policy is worst I've ever seen. I scheduled this 6 months in advance and read no indication that this reservation was nonrefundable. All other excursion companies allowed us up to 48 hours before the excursion to cancel. It is now 5 months until the original excursion date and no refund. Ridiculous!

Absolutely beautiful ride with amazing guides and horses! A huge thank you to our guide Tianna. I am an experienced horse rider and have done many rides all over the world. While this is a walking only tour which can sometimes be tedious for experienced riders - Tianna still made this a fun experience. She has so much energy and passion for her role. She was calm and patient (more than I could’ve been!) with inexperienced riders. I was also incredibly impressed that she had gone to the effort to learn phrases in multiple languages that were helpful on the trail. Definitely the signs of someone who goes above and beyond for their role! She had excellent knowledge of all the horses and a great fondness and understanding of them all. She was also very knowledgeable about the land and area and gave us a lot of great information along the way. The horses are absolutely lovely I had a lovely guy named Sriracha who never put a foot wrong and my partner had Kalanakila (I’m so sorry for butchering that spelling dude!) who was a big guy with even bigger personality - we loved him! The scenery is absolutely stunning and it’s a lovely slow pace for lots of photos. Because the ride does cater to those without riding experience - you don’t get the opportunity to stop at any of the film locations to hop off or even grab mounted photos. This was a pretty clear expectation from the start so I wasn’t disappointed but it’s certainly a potential opportunity for the business. It wouldn’t be feasible with inexperienced riders but perhaps someday there will be different levels of trail rides available!

Schöner Ausritt Ein sehr schöner Ausritt mit einigen interessanten Fakten zur Ranch. Wir wären gerne noch länger geritten aber nach 2h merkt man als Neuling dann schon, dass es anstrengend ist.

雄大な景色と馬に癒されます ずっと行ってみたかったクアロアでの乗馬体験! 私たちのツアーをガイドしてくれたのは、カールヘアーがおしゃれな男性スタッフ(お名前を聞けば良かった)でしたが、とてもフレンドリーで親切でした。 私を乗せてくれた馬は、少し自由なところがあり、慣れるまで大変でしたが、それもイイ思い出です。 景色は雄大で最高でした。 ただロケ地ツアーは別途申し込んでおくべきだったと思いました。キングコング髑髏島の残されたセットは遠くから眺めるだけでした。それはツアーのせいではないので、万点星5をつけます。 なお、木の生い茂った道も歩きます。長袖の上着(暑いのでラッシュガードパーカーなど)を着ておくのをお勧めします。

Kylie the Tour Guide was great. This horseback riding tour was a phenomenal experience for my son who was visiting from out of state. Kylie was our tour guide, and she was very personable who placed the safety of the riders first, she constantly dismounted to fix the saddles of other passengers, very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable of the Hawaiian history. The other stable worker, not your guide (didn’t get the name: Caucasian brunette about 5’6~5’7) should not work in the morning shift as she seemed to have forgotten their cup of coffee in the morning (grouchy), felt unwelcome when we first walked in by ranting and rumbling about “liability”, although we’ve already signed the liability and release waivers, the rant was totally unnecessary & felt mansplained. She could definitely use the aloha spirit or customer service training. Overall, this was a great experience and I would recommend.

Horseback Tour We love the beauty of Kualoa Ranch and have previously done the ATV tour and the Jurassic tour. I took my 10 year old on the horseback tour to celebrate an accomplishment. Our guide was amazing and we enjoyed our tour. However, if you are a tourist looking to pick ONE tour, I would not choose the horseback tour. This tour does not make stops for pictures or to read the movie scene signs. You're literally on the horse for the whole tour, enjoying the views, trying to get a good picture without dropping your phone or slowing down the whole group. Plus: your butt could be sore from the ride and you may not enjoy the rest of your time on Oahu as much!
