I did the secret island back in 2015, and it truly felt like a secret island. The amount of people that were there at that time were the same amount of people on the boat. Now it is overhwelmed 10 fold of people. From the previous time going and present activities to do, they added a couple more presently. One of which checking out the turtles.
Anyways its still fun, especially with someone else.

ワイキキからUber利用で1時間弱で到着します。
家族(7歳〜70歳)で参加しました。7歳は初めてのホーストレッキングでしたが馬がお利口で手綱指示にしっかり応えてくれました。コースの途中で牛や鳥がいたり見慣れない花が咲いていて、それを見ながら会話できる位のんびりと安心して楽しめました。写真動画撮影は自由です。ゆっくり進むので充分可能です。
参加した日は日本語が通じる方は居ませんでしたが、スタッフ全員とても親切で表情とジェスチャーで充分通じます。大きな荷物は受付で預かってもらえ、斜めかけバッグ程度は持ったまま参加できました。途中で写真を撮ってくれますが後で有料ダウンロードです。水栓のトイレは綺麗でしたが手洗い場に石鹸が無いのが残念でした。
犬が自由に走り回っていたりヤギや牛がいてエサを買ってあげられるので待ち時間も楽しめました。

We did the advanced ride which allows for trotting and cantering in some spots on the way up the trail for more experienced riders. It was an amazing experience and we were pleasantly surprised with the diversity of the trail and how many times we were allowed to canter for stretches of trail where it's safe to do so. Our guide was on top of everything and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way.

It was my family's first time visiting Oahu Hawaii AND our first time riding horseback. And what a way to lose our horseback riding virginity! The Ranch was amazing, our guides were amazing and there's even a little petting Zoo that you can feed the goats while you wait for your tour to commence. Highly recommended!

The staff was very good and patient, the horses were fine, even for the beginners, the ride was great. We had a great time and I think the 1.5 hours was just about the right timeframe. One issue I found was that when the wrangler leading a group is at the front and trying to talk to the group, it was almost impossible to understand them from the back of the group (we had 5 in our group). Don't know the answer other than having a wrangler both in front and at the rear of the group, but I know I missed out on much of the discussion.

Daddy/ daughter time horseback riding. I asked my daughter tonight on our last day of our vacation. What is your favorite on all our activities, she said Gunstock Ranch Horse back. I agree with her also. Recommended to do it when you go to OAHU… they are not as crowded like the other ranch near by… also for the money spend,
Friendly staffers.

Secret Island is a very special place for our family. my daughter got a wedding in Moli'i garden and secret island during Covid.
we have a wonderful memory of her wedding with our closed family and friends only under 20 people.
it was a magical experience,so we had been always talking how we can go back to the island.
and we finally planned a family trip to Hawaii this spring, and we have been searched many different websites which offers a tour to the secret island.
this website did not have many reviews compared to other major travel websites, but their prices were the best so we decided to give it a shot.
and the decision was the best!
the reservation process, confirmation, instructions and everything was GREAT!
it was a little bit of cold and rainy day so we were the only group going to the island that day. we basically rented the entire island to ourselves.
we highly recommend this webstie for Kualoa ranch tour!

We enjoyed our half-day experience. As tourists, the Secret Island experience was nice because it satisfied my desire to do kayaking and paddle boarding. The beach was nice for young kids because they had supplies to build sand-castles, however that is the most of what my young children really enjoyed. In retrospect, most of the activities there would be best for older children and teenagers to really enjoy. For families with younger children, it may be best to buy some sand toys and head to a local beach.

Hannah and Hayden were amazing! They picked fruit for us to try (which made the trip even better!), showed us a cave that we were able to look into, let us feed the cows and were just good people to talk with. The property is beautiful…especially from the top while eating a delicious dinner. We would 100% go back and do it again.

お天気が少し心配でしたが、屋根付きなので多少の雨であれば問題ありませんでした。足が悪い家族と一緒のオフロードツアーでしたが、ガイドさんにもよくしていただき良かったです。

So fun!! Loved all the workers who gave us history on Hawaii, from ferry driver to island workers who took us on canoe and glass bottom boat. Loved the sandbar canoe the best!! Definitely recommend visiting the beach

The ride and the guide were amazing! The ranch has cows throughout that you get to see when horse riding. It is the best ranch I have been to.

The staff was outstanding and fun. The 10-minute boat ride was informative and not bad at all for those afraid of seasickness.
The pesto chicken wrap that came with the full day package was dry, it needed extra dressing. The included activities (kayak, paddle board, etc..) were good. Beach volleyball nets and balls were ok (bring your own ball if you have it), the sand had a lot of hard marble-sized cones from the surrounding trees, tough on the feet - good shade though.

We had a blast with Morgan driving use around the 900+ acre Gunstock Ranch we saw a see cave, a WWII pill box, beautiful views of the North shore and the East side of the island. Lunch was at a peaceful shaded area on top of the ranch. And we had to try out the tree swing. Did I mention that almost all of the ranch hands are beautiful women. Thank you Gunstock we had a great time.

The views were amazing! We did the sunset atv tour and it was very fun. Our tour guide was great and she answered our questions with extra info. Lots of animals on the ranch which was nice to see too. The food was great. We even got to see the filming locations of the show Hawaii 5-0.

What a great way to do something different on Oahu.
Horseback riding is also available, but we chose the UTV tour of this ranch, as we are UTV people.
Got to explore this 1000 acre ranch near the North Shore.
Picked fresh fruit, fed cows, had a nice brown bag lunch on top of the hill, with outstanding views below of the ranch, to the ocean.
Go slow, or rip through the ranch, you choose.
Super fun way to do non-beach activities and absolutely loved it!
Would visit again.

It was so much fun with just a little glitch (they didn’t tell us our lunch was there and we have been waiting). But it was a great experience!
Thank you to all the staff who looked after everyone’s safety!
Mahalo!!

This was a nice easy ride. Our group took a bit longer because we had so many horses stop for bathroom breaks - one stopped 3x!! The wranglers were awesome! We had Cole and Hannah (Montana). Although it was wet and windy we still got some great views of the ocean. I was lucky enough to ride Autograph who has been in movies and TV shows like Magnum PI & Hawaii Five-O. She was a great horse. We enjoyed the ride a lot and would definitely come back for the longer ride next time.

This adventure is for the thrill-seeker; definitely not for the faint-of-heart. It was not what we expected as we hoped to see Hawaiian countryside that we couldn't see from a tour bus. What we saw were a lot of trees and hills and horses. We held on for dear life as the tour guide drove at high speed around curves and up and down hills. The campfire dinner was very good, but it was difficult to enjoy it because the wind was so strong and chilly. Some people might really appreciate this adventure, but it was not for us.

Our drivers were fantastic! We learned a ton about the land and enjoyed the picnic lunch near the end. Beautiful views again, the two girls that toured us around very fun and tailored the experience to the vehicle. We had adults in one and children in the other. By far our favorite activity during our stay in Oahu.
