We loved our 90 minute scenic horseback ride. The horses were obviously well cared for, and everyone we encountered at the ranch was cheerful and helpful. Our guides, Beth and Addie were fantastic …Full review by Traveler20224981489

What do you get to do with the horsemanship experience? Is there more riding than with the pony ride? Any big differences between the two options?Trying to decide on the best one to do with my 5 year old. Thanks

I am going to guess that the biggest difference is that your child will be riding the horse alone with you walking next to the horse on the Pony ride (pay for one child, both parents walk free), whereas you will have to ride with your child on the horse for the Horsemanship experience (since your child is under 7) and if there is another parent, they will have to pay to ride as well. My 7 and 8 year olds loved the pony ride, we got to walk along and take pictures, and then they got to feed and pet a horse at the end. It was a fairly short ride, but perfect for my kiddos.

That would be a good question to ask them at the ranch and also your doctor, just to be sure. Our trail ride was very smooth (no galloping, but we did have an occasional trot if the horse decided to).
What is the best way to get from the ranch to the Polynesian Cultural Center without a car? Are there shuttles or is the bus the best option?
A:
Currently there are no options for shuttles from the Polynesian Cultural Center. The city bus is the best option. There is a bus stop just before our entrance (Malaekahana State Park) …
Currently there are no options for shuttles from the Polynesian Cultural Center. The city bus is the best option. There is a bus stop just before our entrance (Malaekahana State Park) and one just past our entrance (traveling north). Either stop works.
