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

Excellent Oahu activity!

Reviewed by: George

I did this with my 23 year old daughter and we both felt that this was an outstanding activity! The ride was great - some hills, windy trails, spectacular views, just the right length - 90 minutes. The staff was super - Darleena couldn't have been better - so knowledgeable, friendly and patient! The horses were very calm and perfect for this type of ride. We both agree that this is one of the best things we've done on Oahu. We've already recommended Gunstock Ranch to other family members that are planning to visit Hawaii. (I'll send photos later)

Aloha! The trip was great and the stops where just right. Keao, our driver and guide had everyone laughing and singing during most of the trip. That just added to the fun! Mahalo Keao for helping to make my 50th birthday one I will never forget! V.J.

We had the good fortune to have a young whale in a frisky mood breaching several times. The staff was very thoughtful, one of them loaning his windbreaker to our 7 year old. A great outing!

Kualoa Ranch Horseback Riding & Jurassic Valley Movie Sites Tour

Wow!

Reviewed by: Donny

My husband and I had the pleasure of experiencing this excursion on September 8, 2007. Our guides Karen and Hana were great, they were very thorough with the instruction and were masters of matching up the horses with the guests. Karen was up front with us so i had more experience with her, she was pointing out all the movie location spots and actually stopped to pick us all fruit, she went on to explain some natural horse behaviors, cuz i was kinda nervous and she put me completely at ease. She was even nice enuff to stop and collect our cameras so that we can have a picture on our horses. The experience was great, the views were nothing short of breathtaking, the history of the ranch is a story worth hearing as well. I would definately do this again! Although it is nose to tail riding, you can NOT run the horses but its more about the scenery anyway! GREAT TIME!

There were so many of them. I expected one or two but there were more then a dozen. Captain Bubba and Brandon were fabulous. My husband didn't want to go but ended up not wanting to get out of the cage because he was having such a blast! Definately something to do again.

FanFreakinTastic!!!

Reviewed by: Len Langevin

This was by far the best adventure I've ever been on and I'd do it again in a heartbeat, which is very different from most touristy things I've done in Hawaii where once is enough.

The crew was great, the sharks were plentiful and the gear provided was excellent. Don't forget to bring your camera because you will want to capture every moment out there. If you don't have an underwater camera, you can buy one from the crew.

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Fantastic Experience!!

Reviewed by: Amanda & Allan

This was a great adventure! Being in the cage is extremely rough, and you have to hold on to avoid getting thrown around by the huge waves, but this is a small problem! There must have been at least 15-20 sharks (Galapagos and sandbar sharks) swimming all around, and rubbing on the cage! I would recommend this activity to anyone who can handle a rough ocean. It was one of the best things we did in Hawaii!! Take anti-nausea pills, as the waves are huge, and the boat rocks hard (even for those who don't think they get seasick).

FUN!!!!! FUN !!!! FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reviewed by: The Bradys

This was are favorite activity. You are taken out 3 miles from the shore in 400+ ft of water and put in a cage while chum is thrown from the boat. Then its a shark fest. We seen about 20+ Galapagos sharks. Bring a waterproof camera to capture the excitement. It was really difficult for us to get pictures because the water was so choppy, but out of 27 pictures we got 20 great pictures.

Reviewed by: Teresa

The ride takes you through the valley of the Koolau Mountains. The views are grogeous! The horses are well trained so there is no problems for first timers. Our guides, Christine and Suzanna are wonderful and enthusiastic. They were a lot of fun and brought great energy to the group. The view of the mountains and ocean will definitely make you appreciate the beauty of Hawaii.

Reviewed by: Bryan

Rongo, our driver, was very fun and entertaining. From picking us up to dropping us off he had excellent information to share and plenty of jokes to tell. Even after most people were dropped off and we were the last ones to our hotel, he was giving us little tidbits of information on good eating and fun attractions. This is a trip everyone should see on their first visit to oahu, and the dole plantation is a must.

All I can say is "oh man!"

Reviewed by: John Simonsen SLC UT

This one of the biggest thrills I have ever experienced, and there has been alot, we have traveled all over the world and this is most definately in the top 5 for us. To have a shark 8-12 feet long inches from your face, let alone 15-20 of them within 20 feet of you is extreme, then add in some good sized swells to add to the excitement, I wouldn't miss it again, ever, a must for anyone who needs a thrill.

Great experienc w/ experienced crew

Reviewed by: Jose

This adventure delivers on exactly what it offers. If you've seen the shark specials on the discovery channel this will be very similar except for the fact that YOU are up close and personal with the sharks. Bring waterproof camera for great shots. I didn't have one but I brought my live action camera and filmed some great footage from on the boat.

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Amazing Time

Reviewed by: Shark Fanatic

This tour is definitely worth the money! We had an amazing time! Make sure to take Dramamine ahead of time and make sure to have enough battery power for your camera because you will take tons of photos. If you have never snorkeled, I recommend figuring out how to snorkel ahead of time. We also saw whales (it was the middle of whale season) and you could here them if you were really quiet under the water. We had to rebook due to weather and the staff was great at getting us a new date/time that worked with our schedule. The only regret I have is the video that was shot for us. It was very expensive for the footage we received (about 10 minutes) and the wrong couple was intereviewed at the beginning of the video and at the end of the video the camera wasn't turned off so we have about 5 minutes of a white wall on the front of the boat. All in all, it was an amazing time and we would definitely do it again!

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

Take A Camera!!

Reviewed by: Dr Bob (From the UK)

Great trip, with a very knowledgeable captain and crew.
Bring your underwater camera for some pictures of a lifetime,,,, so you think!
You will be back to enjoy this again.

Visibility was well over 50 feet and the water was a crystal clear deep blue.
When you are in the cage you are totally protected and safe, yet as the sharks come so close you feel as if you are out there with them.

The only bad thing for me were the pretty high waves, which made it difficult to hold the camera still. (As seen from the pictures)

This experience is on the 'To Do on the next trip' list.
Thanks everyone involved

Sharks in June

Reviewed by: Malcolm Fawcett

This was a great trip and exceeded our expectations. Seeing sharks circling up from the deep to come and feed in close attendence with Trumpetfish and a random Tuna was a sight I will never forget. The water was so blue and clear that it was like watching on film. If there is one thing that you do when you go to Hawaii then this should be it. With the correct balance between ecology, safety and fun this must be the best activity by a mile and it still leaves time for surfing in the afternoon! Brilliant.

Outstanding! ~ Don't go hungover

Reviewed by: Sadiej

This activity is exceptional & absolutely delivers!
As a group of three we boarded the North Shore boat in various stages of hangover from an international conference. One mate was viciously seasick, another repeatedly seasick and I was moderately seasick (only had to hang my head over the boat once). It is a testament to this excursion that although we all felt absolutely awful we thought it was AMAZING and would do it again in a heartbeat.
Do not pass up the opportunity to see these incredible animals in crystal clear deep waters. Be sure to have something for motion sickness as it is a bumpy ride on the boat and in the cage.
