Kualoa Ranch Private Beach at Secret Island - Kayak, SUP, Volleyball & More

Full day with food

Reviewed by: TK , 2022/08/01

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.

Gunstock Ranch Private ATV Guided Tour with Lunch or Sunset Campfire Dinner

UTV ride at Gunstock Ranch

Reviewed by: Guys trip, 2022/07/07

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.

Gunstock Ranch Private ATV Guided Tour with Lunch or Sunset Campfire Dinner

Something Different

Reviewed by: Todd C., 2022/03/23

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!

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

Total blast - even with rain

Reviewed by: Mary, 2021/12/31

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.

Gunstock Ranch Private ATV Guided Tour with Lunch or Sunset Campfire Dinner

Not for the faint-of-heart

Reviewed by: Timid folks, 2021/12/12

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.

Family fun adventure

Reviewed by: V Garza, 2021/12/11

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.

One of the best experiences during our visit to Hawaii

Reviewed by: The Bryant family , 2021/08/10

My family and I were blown away the most after the fun bouncy atv riding to end up with a private beautiful campfire set up for dinner. The food was great the scenery was marvelous and the camp fire was fun. My kids adored our two guides especially. They were very friendly, awesome knowledgeable tour guides, and made our rides very fun and enjoyable. We would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone who goes to Hawaii check this place out. The cows make you laugh, they know when its feeding time for sure!

Thanks so much for our wonderful memories made there
We will be back!

Reviewed by: Emily, 2021/08/06

We had a great time on secret island. We were running late for our scheduled time and they allowed us to reschedule. We felt it was cost effective since we had access to chairs, stand up paddle boards, and Kayaks. Overall, we would recommend.

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

Fun tour!

Reviewed by: Mariam, 2021/07/14

We did the 9am 1-hour horseback. This tour is a trail ride meant for beginners - which was perfect for me! Don't forget to wear long pants and wear closed-toed shoes. There isn't much shade on the trail so wear plenty of sunscreen and wear sunglasses.

If you do the ATV at Gunstock Ranch too, try to do the tours back-to-back. This tour booked out a few weeks in advance and I wasn't able to do the tours back-to-back. We did the 9am horseback, had some time to grab lunch in Haleiwa, then came back to the ranch for our 2pm ATV tour. If you do this, make sure you leave with plenty of time to allow for traffic. Traffic on the North Shore can be unpredictable and you can be caught in bumper to bumper traffic which might make you late for the tour.

Gunstock Ranch Private ATV Guided Tour with Lunch or Sunset Campfire Dinner

More than we expected

Reviewed by: Robert A, 2021/07/01

The tour through the back country of the working ranch was fun, our guide Emily did a great job. It’s not a fast paced tour but a wild and bumpy ride across the ranch. The sunset dinner was cool for the family. It was private on the top of a hill with a delicious dinner and s’mores. Worth it in my opinion. Weather was good shorts and no jackets. But they did say it rains sometimes. Just not the day we went.
