ハワイ島　乗馬ツアー　コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬！ ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

First experience 初体験

Reviewed by: yakko

I had never been on a guided horseback ride at a ranch before, so I was a bit worried, but I was completely satisfied. My husband and I participated together, along with five other foreign guests. There were explanations provided in Japanese. I was surprised by the sudden horseback riding, but just as others had shared in their experiences, the horses were well-trained and made for a pleasant ride. Two and a half hours flew by in no time. The vast ranch, the shining sea seen from the mountains—truly, we had a wonderful time. Other ranches might not offer such an experience. The weather changed rapidly, with clouds, sunshine, light rain, and fog, but it felt like we were one with nature, which made it enjoyable. I would love to ride again.

牧場での観光引き馬にした乗ったことがなかったので心配でしたが、もう大満足。夫と二人で参加しました。他には５人の外国人の方。説明は、日本語で書かれたものが用意されていました。いきなりの乗馬。驚きましたが、他の方の体験談を読んだ通りで、馬はよく調教されており、気持ちよく乗せてくれました。２時間半なんてあっという間。広大な牧場、山からみた輝く海、本当にすばらしい時間を過ごすことができました。ほかの牧場ではこんなふうにはいかないかもしれません。曇ったり照ったり小雨が降ったり霧が出たりとめまぐるしく変わる天候も、自然と一体化したようで楽しめました。また乗せてもらいたいと思います。

A fun horseback riding experience - the whole family, including beginners, enjoyed it! 楽しい乗馬体験～初心者の家族全員が楽しめた！～

Reviewed by: りんりん

I made a reservation for a course on July 20, 2013, at 8:30 AM. I participated with my husband, my daughter who is in high school, and my son who is in elementary school. I was quite anxious! Although I had been on a horse before, it was at a ranch in Japan where the ranch staff held the reins and we just rode around a designated area, so I was worried if we could ride here too.

The horse was quite tall, easily exceeding my height of 154 cm, and seemed to be about 175 cm. Once I finally got on, the view was different. At first, I was scared, but as I rode, I became completely okay with it. The horse was very calm and listened to us well. I was taught how to guide the horse with commands like stop, go, right, and left. Two young ladies accompanied us, one at the front and one at the back, with our family in the middle. They spoke English, but I was able to understand everything, so please don't worry.

The ranch on the Big Island of Hawaii is not flat like in Japan, so it was interesting with hills and valleys. It's better to speak to the horse in English for better understanding! For example, "thank you" translates to "THANK YOU," and "good" can be used for phrases like "it's okay" or "good job."

2013/07/20（土）の8：30～にコースで予約いたしました。
私、主人、高1の娘、小6の息子で参加しました。結構不安でした！馬になったことはあってもそれは日本の牧場で馬の手綱を牧場の人が持って私たちは乗ってるだけで、一定の場所を1周するという感じだったので、こんな私たちでも乗れるのか不安だったのです。
馬の背は高く私の身長（154cm)を優に超えて175cmあったようでした。そこにやっと乗ると景色が違いました。最初は怖かったですが、乗っているうちに全然Ｏｋになりました。馬も全然おとなしくてゆうことをきいてくれていました。止まれ！進め！右！左！の馬の誘導の仕方は教えていただけました。2人のお姉さんが先頭と最後尾についてくれて私たち家族を真ん中にして進みました。お姉さんたちは英語でしたが、全然理解ができましたので、ご安心ください。
ハワイ島の牧場は日本のように平ではないので山あり谷ありで面白かったですよ。
馬に対しては英語で話しかけた方が理解してくれますよ！ありがとう→THANK YOU,いいよとかよしよしとか→GOODという感じです。

Two hours of horseback riding. 乗馬たっぷり２時間

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

We participated as a family. We took a taxi to the ranch. It took about an hour by car from the Hilton where we were staying (it might take longer if you're not familiar with the roads), costing around $100. Our family of three joined a group of four young foreigners, and we had two female guides. Excluding the safety instructions and equipment explanations, we had a full two hours of riding time. The guides spoke broken Japanese, but there were no issues. The horses were very gentle and seemed to remember the path on their own, so they moved forward just by riding them (though some cues were needed when they were slow). Those who wanted could canter, and my companion, despite being a beginner, managed to canter. It was said that there are some cold spots on the ranch, and the guides provided windbreakers for us. The guides, although speaking broken Japanese, were attentive to us, making for an enjoyable two hours. I booked the activity for the first time through Alan, and the process was smooth with no particular issues.

家族で参加しました。牧場まではタクシーを使いました。泊まっているヒルトンから車で飛ばして１時間（道に精通していなければ多分もっとかかります）、100ドルほどです。われわれ家族３人と外国人の若者グループ４人が参加して、ガイドの女性が２人つきました。注意事項や装備の説明を除いて乗っている時間はたっぷり２時間はありました。ガイドは片言の日本語ですが、問題はなかったです。馬は大変大人しく、自分で道を覚えており、乗っているだけで進んで行ってくれます〈遅い時は、多少の合図は必要です〉。希望者はキャンター（駆足）も可能で、連れは初心者にも関わらずキャンターをしてました。牧場内では寒くなる場所もあるそうで、ガイドがウインドブレーカーも用意してくれました。ガイドは日本語を片言ですが、われわれにも気を配ってくれて楽しい２時間でした。アランさんを通じて初めてアクティビティを予約しましたが、手続きはスムーズで特に問題はありませんでした。

Horseback riding 乗馬

Reviewed by: neru

The tour we booked had only our group of Japanese participants. The rest were all from Europe and America. The guide spoke English, but also communicated a few words in Japanese. My husband, who was riding a horse for the first time, was initially scared but gradually got used to it and enjoyed himself. We crossed a river up to our knees on horseback, which is an experience you definitely can't have in Japan. 2.5 hours was just enough. However, there were safety instructions in Japanese at the waiting area after the horseback riding, so I thought it would have been more reassuring if they had explained that to us since we don't speak English.

予約したツアーは日本人が私たち１組のみでした。
あとはすべて欧米の方。
ガイドも英語でしたが、片言単語で日本語をしゃべってくれました。
乗馬初めての夫も最初は怖がってましたが徐々に慣れてきて、楽しめました。
ひざ上までの川を馬で渡ったり、日本では絶対経験できません。
2.5時間で充分でした。
ただ、乗馬後の待機場所に日本語で乗馬時の注意事項があったので、英語が話せない

I used to be a cowboy in Canada, and it had been a while since I rode a horse.

We rode on an incredibly large ranch of 1,800 acres, galloping along with the horses. A man from Virginia who joined me was a beginner, but with the careful lessons, he was able to ride very well.

I was able to trot and canter, and I was really satisfied that I could also change the speed and direction to some extent.

I couldn't bring my two-year-old daughter this time, but I hope to take her someday. It seems like it's okay from the age of eight!

It was my first time riding a horse, but all the horses were very well-trained, so I felt comfortable. On the day we participated, everyone else was from the mainland. The tour is basically in English, but it's not at a difficult level, so even with a middle school level of English, you can communicate just fine. Occasionally, they also provide important points in Japanese, so I think you can participate without any issues even if your English is not great. You can absorb the unique charm of the Big Island that you can only experience here, so there's plenty of enjoyment and healing that only those who go can taste!

はじめての乗馬でしたが、とても躾けられたお馬さんばかりで大丈夫でした。

時々ですが注意点だけは日本語でも声をかけてくださるので英語が全くダメでも

For some reason, all 10 participants were Japanese. Since it was the second choice of dates, could it be that the organizers controlled it to turn out that way? However, it was English-only, and there were no problems at all; it was my first experience with horseback riding, and I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Horseback riding in nature. 自然の中で乗馬

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

We proceed in a line through the mountains. My friend, who was experiencing horseback riding for the first time, was very happy and enjoying it. I was hoping to see the ocean from horseback, but we followed a route that went through the mountains, only occasionally catching glimpses of waterfalls. All the explanations during the ride were in English, so Japanese was not understood. Perhaps because of that, the tour guide was chatting happily with the Western families. However, they were very friendly and kind. The reception is at the counter of a gift shop, which makes it a bit confusing, and since it also serves as a meeting point for other tours, it can get chaotic during the gathering. After checking in and using the restroom, I recommend listening carefully inside the shop.

山の中を一列になって進みます。
乗馬初体験の友人も大喜びで楽しんでいました。
馬上から海を見れるのかなと期待していましたが、ずっと山の中の道を進むルートでたまに滝が見える程度でした。
乗馬中の説明は全て英語なので日本語は通じません。そのせいかツアーガイドの方も欧米のファミリーと話が弾んでいました。でもとても笑顔で親切でしたよ。
受付が雑貨屋のカウンターなので解りにくい事と、他のツアーの集合場所にもなっているので集合の時に混乱します。

The best outdoor riding. 最高の外乗り

Reviewed by: にゃんこ

We participated as a family of three with our 9-year-old son. There were also 7 other Japanese people (a total of 10) and 3 Americans. We enjoyed long horseback riding while taking in the magnificent nature, and I felt the cost performance was very good. I was surprised at how well-trained the horses were. It was heartwarming to have cute dogs accompany us along the way. My son and I are members of a riding club in Japan, but riding in Western style, such as using leather stirrups and operating the reins with one hand, was refreshing and fun. We got to see valleys and waterfalls up close, and we even crossed a deeper river while riding, which was full of the charm of trekking! My husband is a beginner at horseback riding, but he thoroughly enjoyed it without any issues. We definitely want to participate again.

9歳の息子と夫婦3人で参加しました。他にも日本人が7人（計10人）、アメリカ人3人がいました。雄大な自然を楽しみながら長時間乗馬が出来て、コストパフォーマンスがとても良いと感じました。馬達はよく訓練されており驚きました。可愛い犬たちが一緒に道中付いて来てくれ、微笑ましかったです。私と息子は日本の乗馬クラブに入っていますが、皮の鐙、手綱を片手で操作するなど、ウエスタンスタイルの騎乗が新鮮で楽しかったです。渓谷や滝をそばで見て、途中深めの川を騎乗したまま渡るなど、トレッキングの魅力満載です！主人は乗馬初心者ですが、問題なく満喫していました。また是非参加したいです。

I felt like going for a walk. 散歩気分でした

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated on the morning of October 16. The weather was nice, and I leisurely explored the valley while swaying on horseback.

I was worried about the language barrier since it was only in English, but there were no issues as they explained things with gestures. (I needed a bit more English for check-in than for riding the horse. Basically, it was fine to just hand over the voucher, but I think I was told something like "Go to the restroom" and "We'll leave at 9:30, so be around here.")

By the way, the meeting place was a very stylish shop with many wonderful items that you wouldn't find in the city. (There were lots of designer pieces.)

After descending a steep slope in a 4WD, we entered a quiet valley. I got on the horse from there, and although I was tense and stiff at first, I quickly got into the groove within five minutes. I was able to enjoy walking through the river where the horse's belly was submerged in water and leisurely taking in the scenery.

Although I couldn't communicate perfectly in English, the guide was cheerful and kind, explaining fruits along the way and taking pictures at the viewpoints, which I appreciated.

I think just bringing a camera is sufficient. There isn't much opportunity to drink water while riding. I also didn't need sunglasses since there was a nice amount of shade from the trees.

10月16日の午前中に参加しました。
天気も良く、のんびりと馬の背にゆられて渓谷を散策してきました。

英語のみ、ということで心配でしたが身振り手振りで説明してくれたので問題なかったです。
（馬の乗り方より、チェックインのほうが少し英語が必要でした。基本的にバウチャーを渡すだけで大丈夫ですが「トイレに行っといて」と「9：30に出発するからそこらへんにいて」と言われたような気がします。）

ちなみに集合場所のお店はとてもおしゃれなお店で
街中で売っていないようなすてきなものがたくさんおいてありました。（デザイナーの作品とかがたくさんありました。）

四駆で急こう配の坂を降りると静かな渓谷の中になります。
そこから馬に乗りましたが、はじめは緊張してガチガチだったものの5分もすればすっかり調子づいてきて、馬のお腹が水につかる位の川の中を歩いたり、のんびり景色をながめたりして楽しむことができました。

英語なので上手な意思疎通はできませんでしたが、それでも途中果物の説明をしてくれたり、ビューポイントで写真をとってくれたりとガイドの方も陽気で親切にしてくださりよかったと思います。

持ち物はカメラだけで十分だと思います。
馬に乗っているときは水を飲む余裕はあまりないですので。

Horseback riding with my daughter. 母娘で乗馬

I participated with my mother, who is over 60. The male instructor stayed close to my mother almost the entire time, which was somewhat reassuring, but my mother regretted trying horseback riding just a few minutes into it (laughs). However, by the time she got used to it, she had a bit of a smile, and on the way back, she said, "I'm glad I did it!"

There were about 10 people in our group, and we were the only Japanese. All the explanations were in English, but they shouted out the necessary Japanese, so I didn't find it too inconvenient.

As for the helmets, I thought everyone would wear them, but it turned out we were the only ones wearing them, and they were quite smelly, so personally, I think it would have been fine not to wear them. They really stank...

Also, my mother was in agony from the muscle soreness that came two days after riding. The experience was quite physically demanding, so for those who want to enjoy everything, it can be a lot of fun.

60過ぎた母と2人で参加しました。
男性インストラクターが、ほぼずーっと母の近くにいてくれたので、やや安心でしたが、初の乗馬に母は、開始数分で後悔したそうです（笑）
でも、慣れてきた頃には少し笑顔もあり、帰りには"やってよかったー''と言ってました。
1グループ10名位で日本人は私達のみ。
説明もすべて英語ですが、必須の日本語は叫んで（笑）くれるので、あまり不便とは思いませんでした。
また、ヘルメットですが、みんなカブるのかと思いきや、私達しかカブっておらず、かなり汗臭かったので、個人的にはカブらなくてもよかったかなぁと思いました。ほんとに臭いです…
あと、乗馬した2日後にきた筋肉痛には、母は悶絶していました。
内容的にはけっこうハードなところもあるので、なんでも楽しみたいと思ってる方には最高に楽しめます。

Horseback riding experience in Waipi'o Valley. ワイピオ渓谷で乗馬体験

Reviewed by: 山本裕治

This was our second time participating as a couple. For us ordinary folks, horseback riding seems like a dream, but it's quite normal in Hawaii.
I’m 59 years old, but I was called by name by the instructor, Yuji, who is much younger than me. At first, I felt a bit resistant, but the staff was very kind, and it made me feel like I was in America.
There’s a tour that costs nearly $100 to go down to Waipi'o Valley, but this horseback riding experience takes you down to Waipi'o Valley and includes riding for just over $80, which I think is quite reasonable. However, it’s a meet-up and disperse arrangement. We were the only Japanese there.
We got to ride for about two hours, and the view of Waipi'o's nature from horseback is absolutely wonderful. The perspective from the horse is quite high, a height I haven’t experienced much before. We walked through rough terrain and even deep water (up to the horse's knees), which was an incredible experience. It was thrilling, wondering if everything would be okay. My wife seemed very satisfied and had a great expression on her face. We plan to go again next year.
By the way, even if it's your first time riding, the horses are well-trained, so you can feel safe. I highly recommend this to everyone.

　今回は夫婦で2回目の参加です。私達庶民夫婦には乗馬なんか夢のような話ですが、ハワイでは普通に出来てしまいます。
　私は59歳ですがユウジ、ユウジと私よりもズーット若いインストラクターに名前で呼ばれていました。最初は抵抗あったのですが対応も親切でここはアメリカかと感じました。
　また、ワイピオ渓谷まで降りるのに100ドル近くかかるツアーがあるのですが、この乗馬はワイピオ渓谷まで降りてしかも乗馬をして80数ドルでかなり安いと思います。ただし、現地集合、解散です。日本人は私達だけでした。
　2時間ほどみっちり乗馬ができ、馬上から見るワイピオの自然は最高に素晴らしいです。馬の上からの目線はかなり高く、あまり体験したことがない高さです。悪路や川の中をかなり深いところまで（馬の膝あたり）馬で歩くのですが何ともすごい体験です。大丈夫かなとスリル満点です。妻もかなり満足そうでいい顔していました。また来年行くつもりです。
　ちなみに、乗馬は初めてでも馬がよく訓練されているので安心です。私は皆さんに是非お勧めします。

You descend into the valley with the help of the tour staff's driving, but it's absolutely impossible without a four-wheel drive. It was definitely the right choice to rely on a tour rather than trying to go on your own.

The horseback riding experience was great, but even more appealing was the tour that allowed us to immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of the valley.

I heard that the horse I rode was the most spirited one, and indeed, it suddenly trotted a few times during the ride, so I was glad I wore a helmet. Other people's horses had no issues at all, and even small children were riding alone.

The road to Waipi'o Valley also passed through charming rural towns, allowing us to have a very fulfilling time. Overall, the tour was quite rewarding.

渓谷にはツアースタッフの方の運転で降りますが、4駆でないと絶対無理です。個人で行こうとするよりもツアーを頼んで大正解でした。
乗馬という体験もよかったですが、それ以上に渓谷の自然の中に行けるツアーとして魅力的でした。

乗馬では、私が乗せていただいた馬は一番暴れん坊な馬だと聞いており、確かに道中何度か唐突に小走りとなったので、ヘルメットをしていてよかったと感じました。ほかの方の馬は何の問題もなく、小さな子も一人で乗っていましたよ。

ワイピオ渓谷に至るまでの道も田舎のかわいい街があり、とても充実した時間を過ごすことができました。ツアー全体として、やりごたえのあるものでした。

You can ride for a very long time. Everyone's butt hurt after 2 or 3 days. Unlike horses that know the way and proceed in order, they tend to go wherever they want, trying to eat leaves and fruits. It was quite challenging, but I'm glad I had the experience of handling the horse. You really need to listen carefully to the instructions given at the beginning.

Even with quite a bit of rain, the ride doesn't get canceled. They lend you raincoats, but some raincoats only cover the upper body, so my pants got completely soaked. The color from the saddle transferred onto my pants.

The guide says, "Let me borrow your camera!" and takes pictures for you.

Along the way, we enjoyed the breathtaking views of Waipi'o Valley, and the course was varied, including riding through the river.

Waipi'o Valley is worth seeing just for the views, but I highly recommend the horseback riding tour.

If there's one downside, it was that the meeting point was hard to find. We happened to stumble upon it. It would be better if it were easier to locate.

ガイドさんの指示は英語なんですが、簡単な単語と身振り手振りで乗馬を教えてくれたので、未経験者でもすぐに慣れました。

そして、道中、ワイピオ渓谷の絶景を楽しむことができるとともに、川の中を馬で進むなど、コースもバラエティに富んでいました。

ワイピオ渓谷は見るだけでも値打ちがありますが、乗馬での観光は非常にお勧めできます。

１つだけ難があるとすれば、集合場所がわかりにくかったところですね。我々は偶然にたどりつけました。そこが分かりやすいともっといいと思います。

The guides and horses were great but the trails and scenery were disappointing.

Thankful for the wise horse. 賢い馬に感謝

I was attracted to the course that crosses the river in the canyon and decided to participate. In the same group, there were American, Indian, Chinese, and two Japanese couples, all in their 20s to 30s.

From the meeting point, we took a car down a steep mountain road while overlooking the canyon, which was thrilling due to the narrowness of the road.

After signing the waiver at the horse area, we chose helmets (none of which were very clean, so it was better to choose quickly), and there was a 5 to 10-minute explanation about horseback riding. (Since my English skills are limited, I desperately gathered information from my husband. I was a bit worried if I couldn't get someone to interpret for me.)

We put the water we brought (which must be purchased at the meeting point as it is not sold at the stable) into a bag they provided (a pocket-like thing to hang on the horse's shoulder). Once you get on the horse, beginners won't have much leeway, so if you want to use a camera, it's recommended to hang it around your neck. By the way, make sure to use the restroom at the meeting point, as there won't be another opportunity until we return.

The horse I rode was a model student and always stayed close to the guide, so I could hear the guide's instructions. (However, it was very tough for me not to be able to respond to the guide due to my lack of English skills, haha.) The other horses were also generally well-trained and calm, so there shouldn't be any issues for those not used to horseback riding, but each horse has its own personality, such as those that stop to graze, those that want to go ahead, and those that try to take a different route, which adds to the fun of the tour.

We walked slowly along the mountain path, enjoying the plants and scenery for about two hours. The breeze was pleasant, making it a refreshing tour.

渓谷の川を渡るコースに魅力を感じこちらのコースに参加。
同じ回には、アメリカ人、インド系、中国系、日本×2組の、20代~30代のいずれもカップルが参加していた。

集合場所からは車にて、渓谷を見下ろしながら急な山道を降りて行くのだが、道幅も狭くなかなかスリリング。

馬のいる場所まで降りて誓約書にサインした後、ヘルメットを選び（どれもあまりキレイではなく出遅れずに早く選んだ方がいい感じ）、乗馬についての説明が5分~10分くらい。（私は英語力に乏しい為、必死で夫から情報収集。誰かに通訳してもらえない場合はちょっと心配。）

各自持参した水（集合場所では購入しておかなければ、馬小屋では売ってない）を、貸してくれる袋（馬の肩にかけるポケットのようなもの）に入れる。
また一度馬に乗ってしまうと初心者ではあまり余裕が無い為、もしカメラを使いたいなら首から下げておくのがおススメ。
ちなみにトイレも集合場所で済ませておきましょう。出発以降は戻ってくるまでないので。

私の乗った馬は優等生で、常にガイドの近くのポジションを取ってくれたため、ガイドの話が常に聞けた。（が、英語力がない為、ガイドに対して返答できないことが非常につらかった（笑）。）
他の馬たちも基本的にはよく訓練されていておとなしいので、乗馬に慣れていない人でも問題はないが、やはりそれぞれ個性があって、すぐに道草を食う馬、前に前に行く馬、違うルートに行こうとする馬などなど、どの馬に当たるかもこのツアーの楽しみか。

山の小道をゆっくり歩き、植物や景色を堪能しながら約2時間の行程。吹き抜ける風は気持ちよく爽やかさを感じられるツアーだった。

You will need a means of transportation, such as a rental car, to reach the tour meeting point. Since it was an English tour, I could hardly understand what the female instructor and guide was saying.

However, we enjoyed the descent to the bottom of Waipi'o Valley in a 4WD with a 25-degree slope (it's quite difficult to reach the bottom of Waipi'o unless you're in good shape). After selecting a horse and receiving a very simple explanation (which I didn't understand much of in English), we began our horseback riding.

We crossed a river that was knee-deep and enjoyed riding on paths that cars couldn't access. The horses are well-trained, so even as first-time riders, they walked on their own. Occasionally, they would playfully interact with other horses, which made them excited, but pulling on the reins calmed them down.

It was a satisfying tour with the deep nature of Waipi'o and the valuable horseback riding experience. I believe it would have been even more satisfying if participants were paired with friendly horses. During the ride, our horses were quite far apart, making it difficult for us to converse.

ツアーの集合場所までは、レンタカーなど移動手段が必要です。英語ツアーなので、女性のインストラクター兼ガイドさんの言っていることは、ほとんど理解できませんでした。
が、ワイピオ渓谷の下まで２５度の斜度のくだりを４ＷＤで楽しみ（よほどの健脚でないとワイピオの下までは無理）、馬を選んでくれて、ほんとに簡単な説明（英語であまり理解できませんでしたが）の後、乗馬開始。
膝まで浸かる様な川を渡ったり、車の通れないような道の乗馬を楽しみました。
馬は調教されているので乗馬初体験の夫婦でも、馬が勝手に歩いてくれました。たまに他の馬にちょっかいを出し合ったりし、馬が興奮しますが手綱を引けば落ち着いてくれました。
ワイピオの深い自然と乗馬体験という貴重な経験で満足いくツアーでした。
馬の選定時に、同じ参加者同士に仲の良い馬を与えてもらえれば、もっと満足のいくものであったと思います。
乗馬中は、夫婦の乗った馬が離れていて、夫婦間の会話がほとんどできませんでした。

ハワイ島　乗馬ツアー　コハラ・コーストの牧場をゆったり乗馬！ ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド＞by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

Blown by the refreshing wind on the vast prairie. 大草原でさわやかな風に吹かれて

Cahuilla Ranch is about an hour's drive from the airport. It's located about 11 miles up a mountain road. The elevation is quite high, so it feels cool, and we ride horses in a line across the spacious ranch. My mother was a complete beginner this time, but she seemed to enjoy it very much. We were able to ride comfortably in the clear air. Since we ride for a long time, it's a good idea to apply sunscreen!

　カフア牧場は空港で車で飛ばせば１時間くらいのところでした。
マウンテンロードを１１マイル登ったところでしょうか。
結構標高が高いのか涼しく、広い牧場を一列になって乗馬します。
今回母が全くの初心者でしたが、とても楽しめたようです。
澄んだ空気の中、気持ちよく乗馬できました。
長時間乗るので、日焼け止めを塗った方が良いでしょう！

Great Ride thru Beautiful Valley

Reviewed by: Karen&Amy

A van takes you down to the valley floor where you are introduced to your horses. The ride takes you thru beautiful vegetation (mangos, avacados, bananas, taro and amazing flowers). You cross thru streams and see waterfalls streaming down into the valley. The riding itself is not very exciting. The horses walk at a leisurely pace. However the views are so worth it!

Amazing!! 最高！！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

When I made the reservation, there were no reviews, so I was torn between the tour to Waipi'o Valley, but I wanted to cross the river, so I chose this company and participated with some anxiety. However, it exceeded my expectations in a good way, and I had a really enjoyable time. I could tell that the guide was trying to entertain us, and everyone, including quite a few Japanese participants, got excited together. We crossed multiple rivers and even encountered wild horses. I'm not sure if the guide was the only one, but I was able to understand more Japanese than I expected, and the explanation on how to ride the horses was clear. I had heard that there are many mosquitoes in Waipi'o, so I took a lot of precautions, but I didn't hear any mosquito sounds. The horses were beautiful, and even my somewhat fastidious self was fine with them. It was truly great. For those who are hesitant, I highly recommend it!

予約する時、レビューがなかったのでワイピオの淵を行くツアーと迷い、でも川を渡ったりしたかったのでこちらの会社を選び、不安なまま参加しました。でも良い意味で想像を超え、本当に楽しい時間が過ごせました。ガイドさんが楽しませようとしてくれているのがわかるし参加者みんなで（日本人も結構いました）盛り上がり、川をいくつも渡り、野生の馬にも出会いました。ガイドさんがその方ひとりなのかは分からないですが、思っていたより日本語も通じるし、馬の乗り方の説明も伝わります。ワイピオは蚊が多いと聞いていたので蚊よけをかなりしていきましたが蚊の音は聞かなかったです。馬もきれいで潔癖ぎみの私も平気でした。本当に良かった。迷っている方、ぜひお勧めします！
