This was one of our favorite activities in Oahu. Matthias was our guide and he was so knowledgable about so many of the things in the rain forest. Knee-high rubber boots supplied by the tour are a must. . the hike goes into the rainforest ending at a waterfall and the passage out is thru bamboo. Bike ride was easy but great scenery. Mark meet us with the bikes and helmets and followed Matthias and the group down the mountain. Lunch was enjoyable and the snorkel part was relaxing and fun with Liz and Jocelyn as our boat "captains". Matthias was with us and the first one in the water to show us sea turtles and fish. Would recommend to any tourists that have all day to have fun fun fun

Way beyond my expectations, this trip was one of the highlights of my trip to Hawaii. Jeremy, our guide was very informative as he took us through the rainforest. The bike protion was a breeze and the snorkeling and sailing was very restful. I would go again in a heartbeat.

This tour was amazing. It did everything. We loved it. My only recommendation would be to serve lunch earlier. Not eating til 2 pm was difficult. The rainforest hike was beautiful and we loved the bamboo forest. the bike ride was easy and relaxing and the sail and snorkel couldn't be beat. We saw 6 different sea turtles and they came right up to us. I have the best pictures! We have already recommended it to tons of people before we left and will tell everyone we know about it.

Rarely do I take the time to be a reviewer, but my family so enjoyed the bike, hike, sail, and snorkel combo that I felt compelled to give a review. The excursion starts with a high through a beautiful rainforrest. The guides were well prepared providing boots that were definitely needed for the muddy terrain, as well as mosquito repellant( A MUST!) and ponchos. My wife is recovering from ACL surgery 8 months ago and I was concerned she would not be able to complete the hike. We were able to go at a slower pace than the main group and the guides were very accomodating.
The bike ride comes next. It was very scenic and all downhill. You do mostly braking-coasting with very little peddling. Ending the day with the sail and snorkel is like icing on the cake. We got to see sea turtles up close while snorkeling!
I would highly recommend this outing and would definitely do this excursion again if/when I return to Oahu!

I really loved this. Our guide was fantastic. He was so funny & entertaining. They break you up into small groups, which is very nice. There were a couple of times I would have liked to stop & admire views instead of zipping by. But when we did stop, it was at all the best places. Our guide even went out of his way to get wild fruit for us to sample along the way.
We went on the two hour ride, which was perfect. Any less would have been too short, any more...well, you know.
Bring a water bottle (they don't tell you that) and a hat, because when you take the helmet off to take pictures, you have hat-head! Also, an i-pod would have been nice to have. The guides all used one.

The 2-hour ATV ride was the most awesome adventure all week. The view of the island was absolutely gorgeous, riding through the 4 or 5 streams was great, the challenges of the rugged landscape was great and the equipment was safe and fun to work with. We probably could have used bandanas over our mouths - we didn't expect to eat so much dirt but we didn't know we were going to kick up so much dirt. The guides were so cool too. It was the best adventure for us 18 year olds and glad we did the two-hour ride instead of one!

A great way to see and learn about Hawaii. The hike through the rain forest was very fun and not at all overly exerting (perfect for a vacationing explorer). The guide was very knowledgable and entertaining, offering a perfect mix of commentary, facts and quiet time for some quiet reflection.
The bike tour was also very nice, only it was too short (well, the bottom of the hill has to come eventually). Again, the guide was knowledgable and gave us some spectacular views of Hawaii.

I booked the lunch ride for myself and Daughter in June of 2007. I have to commend the Gunstock Ranch, we had such a wonderful time with our 2 tour guides and saw the beautiful sights of Oahu from the bottom to the top. Were we found seashells on the very top of the mountain and mongoose along the path to get there. The Lunch and the company the tour forward will last us forever until we can get back again to do it all over, I would not hesitate to recommend this extremely enjoyable activity. If you ever need a recommendation please let me know.

今回主人と2人でスカイダイビングを初体験しました。
飛行機から飛び降りる瞬間は、怖いと思うまもなく、ワン・ツー・スリーで落とされたのでそんなに怖さは感じませんでした。天気が良かったので、すごく綺麗でした。
ただ、落ちている間風が強くて、息がしづらかったです。おまけに、インストラクターの方に「ジェットコースターは好きですか?」と聞かれたので、「はい!」と答えたら、右回りや左回りにくるくる回され、体を締め付けられているから、少し気持ちが悪かったです。空中回転している方もいらっしゃいました。
私のインストラクターは日本人の方だったので、パラシーウトが開いたあと、景色を
見ながらいろいろ説明してくれたので分かりやすかったです。なんとか、無事に着地する事が出来てよかったです。ビデオや写真も記念になりました。

The trio combination of snorkeling, hiking and biking was unique. Our favoriate part of the day was the hike through the rain forest and snorkeling. The biking was OK but not at all challenging; good for the scenic view only. The snorkeling was OK, but could have been better if there was more to see i.e. aquatic life beyond the turtle. We also found it to be a bit intimidating to snorkel in the ocean, which was rather rough that day. We have snorkeled in the past in more protected areas such as coves and bays, and were anticipating something similar. Overall, if we could do it again, we would chose the hike, skip the biking and only do snorkeling within a contained area.
Thank you.

This was a great activity for myself and my husband. We have experience riding atv's so felt very comfortable with riding and looking around. If we hadn't we would have missed much of the views as there weren't but two stops where we could look and take pictures. The ride was not too advanced but challenging enough for beginners and experienced riders. Only complaint would be not being able to enjoy the scenery we were riding through more as it was spectacular.

Mike is a great guide and really knows what he is talking about. He explained all about the different types of plants, trees and flowers, and was very nice about taking photos of all the guests. The hike is a perfect level for almost anyone. It isn't too easy and boring, but it isn't incredibly difficult as well. The waterfall at the end made for a great Kodak opportunity.
The bike portion was a great, smooth ride and the views from the various vantage points were breathtaking.
A definite reccomendation!

The hike in the Monoa Valley was a great time. Our guide, Jeremy, made the entire experience fun and enjoyable.
The bike ride portion was a blast. It was not difficult for those that might be concerned. It was all downhill, very little pedaling required. Several stops offered great views.
Overall, anybody, primarily first time visitors, looking for a fun activity with moderate exercise will really enjoy this tour.

If you are the outdoorsy type or just want to see and experience nature while you are in Hawaii, then I TOTALLY recommend doing this tour. You get do see so much of the beauty of the island in just one day. The hike is perfect; it is not too strenuous, the views are amazing and the waterfall at the end was a picture perfect point too! On the way back from the waterfall, our awesome guide took us through a bamboo forest as well (very Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon). Afterwards, we went on a great bike ride down a mountain road and then a great picnic lunch at the end at this cute little park. Snorkeling was the perfect ending to a fun-filled day!

参加日: 2007/03/19(月) 夫婦2人で参加しました。
ガンストック牧場はワイキキから車で約1時間半、ポリネシアカルチュアルセンターの先にあります。緑が一面に広がっていて、ハワイ島のゴツゴツした地面とは違い、乗馬に適していました。朝、8時半に集合。参加は私たち夫婦2人のみ。雨上がりで緑と虹がとてもきれいです。書類にサインをし、乗馬の基本を教えてもらい騎乗。緑の中へ3頭で進んでいきます。途中、女性のガイドさんから「RUN?」と言われたので「YES」と答えると駆け足開始。乗った馬は良く調教されていてとてもよく言うことを聞きます。走りたがりの馬だったのでほとんど蹴らずにすみました。丘までの上り下りや、赤土むき出しで滑りやすい場所以外はほとんど駆け足です。両側の木がアーチになっていて、その下を心地よいスピードで進みます。ガイドさんがグァバの実を採ってくれます。すっぱくておいしい。丘のてっぺんに上ると、そこからは360度の視界が開けます。海も見えます。風も気持ちよく最高の眺めです。あっという間の1時間でした。とても楽しかったです。
