ワイピオ渓谷 乗馬ツアー 絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

I felt refreshed. 心が洗われた。

Reviewed by: Emi oc

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tour required wearing masks, but it was fine to take them off while horseback riding. There were guides in front and behind us, so we could hear explanations even from the back. When a car came, we guided the horses to the side of the road, and it was quite well done. We also got to let the horses drink water from a stream, which made it feel like we were taking care of them, and it was a lot of fun. The wonderful scenery of Waipi'o Valley has become an unforgettable memory.

コロナ禍もありマスク着用でのツアーとなりましたが乗馬時にはマスクを外して大丈夫でした。ガイドさんが前後に1人ずつ付いてくれて後ろの方でも説明を聞くことが出来ました。途中で車が来た時には道の端に馬を誘導するのですが結構上手に出来たり小川でお水を飲ませてあげたりとちょっとお世話してる感もあって楽しかったです。ワイピオキャニオンの素晴らしい景色は忘れられないものとなりました。

The Best of the Valley

Reviewed by: Dee & Jake

I’ve taken this tour before and knew my family from the mainland would enjoy it as much as I did. They LOVED the tour from the very minute they met our guides, Chico and Tracy. We got the best of everything that day: weather, horses, views, guides and Hawaiian experience. We appreciated the high spirited personalities and the great knowledge Chico and Tracy, valley residents themselves, shared with us of life in the Valley of the Kings from times past to the life of today’s Hawaiian families. I don’t want to give any more details so it will be your own special experience. I guarantee you’ll have FUN and if you don’t, well then, you just don’t know how to have fun!
‘Oe! Chico! Tracy! A hui hou!

The best adventure on the big island! We did everything: a helicopter ride, volcano national park, zip lining, snorkeling, swimming with manta rays and this horseback ride through the beautiful waipi'o valley was our favorite activity, hands down. Micah and Eta were excellent and chill guides and just let us get our zen on with the ride while also providing info about all the fruits growing around us.

Memorable horseback riding in a uniquely Hawaiian setting

Reviewed by: tweist

We greatly enjoyed our morning horse ride in the Waipio Valley. Our guides are local residents of the valley who are very proud of the history and the culture. The horses were calm and very sure footed. The lack of in depth introductions about the history and culture of the valley and the unpredictable weather in the valley were largely compensated by the hospitality of the guides, the almost mystic atmosphere of the majestic valley, and arrays of exotic flora of the fertile valley floor. I wish the black sand beach was part of the tour. I might be asking too much but horse riding on the black sand beach could be the highlight of a perfect tour!

A very special experience

Reviewed by: Andrea from Hilo

Pete and Kiera were outstanding guides for this sweet stroll through the back roads of the sacred land of Waipio Valley. I am a former horse owner and have ridden for years, and found my horse well cared for and responsive.

My friend loved the experience too! He is an intermediate rider and the guides did an excellent job of helping all levels feel safe. The ride down and back up to the valley is part of the fun too!

Don't pass up an opportunity to take this ride while you are on this beautiful Island!

Unforgettable ride through the valley. There were 7 of us + 2 guides (+ 4 dogs who tagged along for their morning walk!). Incredible views, and we lucked out with perfect weather. It felt like an adventure rather than a tour; our route took us through streams, and we saw many wild horses, including a couple of fouls! I came with my mom, who isn't keen on doing activities like this, but she loved it. Thank you!

ワイピオ渓谷  乗馬ツアー <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ワイピオ・オン・ホースバック

Enjoying the beauty of the gorge. 渓谷美を堪能

Reviewed by: だだだ

The location of the office was difficult to find even with the navigation, but a juice shop along the way gave me detailed directions, so I was able to arrive. We descended a steep slope in a 4WD vehicle to the valley floor, rode friendly horses across the river in Waipi'o Valley, and passed through the forest. It was safe, and the saddle cushion was good, so my legs (groin) didn't hurt too much. However, the horses' speeds varied, and I couldn't keep up with the guide, so I missed out on some explanations in the second half, which was disappointing. I guess it's difficult to match the pace with horses...

事務所の場所がナビでも分かりにくかったですが 途中のジュース屋さんが詳しく教えてくれたので到着できました。急斜面を4駆で谷底に降りて フレンドリーな馬たちに乗ってワイピオ渓谷の川をわたったり、森の中を抜けたり、安全にでき鞍のクッションがいいのかそんなに足(股間)も痛くなかったです。ただ馬の速度がまちまちでガイドさんについていけず、後半は離れてしまって説明が聞き取れず残念。馬さんなので歩調を合わせるのは難しいのかな・・・

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

Refreshing ranch horseback riding experience 爽やかな牧場の乗馬体験

Reviewed by: naosan

We had a horseback riding experience in the morning as a family of three. It was everyone's first time, but we had a lot of fun. The blue sky and green scenery were amazing, and we spent about two hours on a spacious ranch. At times, we even trotted, which was thrilling, and my daughter enjoyed it as well. At higher altitudes, we entered the clouds, and the guide explained everything in clear English while being considerate of everyone's situation, which made us feel at ease. I recommend the 2.5-hour plan. It was a wonderful experience! I want to go again!

家族三人での朝からの乗馬体験。
全員初めてでしたが楽しかった。
青空とグリーンの景色が最高で広々とした牧場を2時間ほど。途中何度か駆け足で進んでみたりドキドキでしたが、娘も楽しんでいました。
標高の高いところでは雲の中に入って行ったり、ガイドのお姉さんがわかりやすい英語で説明してくれたり、みんなの状況を見ながら気遣ってくれたりと安心でもありました。2.5時間プランお薦めです。
素晴らしい体験!また行きたい!

Mystic Valley 神秘の谷

Reviewed by: Ken

Five years ago, I used the shuttle service with my 10-year-old child and two others, and it was amazing! Two years ago, the tour was canceled due to rain during the shuttle service to the valley. This time, we requested to meet on-site, and after a 1.5-hour drive from Kailua Kona, we crossed off-road rivers while having conversations (in our hearts) with the wonderful horses, saw trumpet flowers, taro fields, and the mysterious valley. The horses were great; Waka would leave the line to eat grass, climb about 50 cm, and then eat more grass, trying to overtake the horse in front! I'm grateful for all of that Waka.

5年前に10才の子供を含め3人で送迎付きで利用して、感動!
2年前は雨模様で谷増水ツアー送迎中連絡で中止。
今回は現地集合をお願いしカイルアコナから1.5時間、良い子(馬たち)と会話(心で)しながらオフロードの川を渡ったり、トランペットフラワー、タロ芋水田、神秘の谷。馬は良い子Waka列を離れては草を食べ50cm位登りまた草、前の馬を追い越そうとする!そんなWakaすべてに感謝。

ワイピオ渓谷  乗馬ツアー <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ワイピオ・オン・ホースバック

It was fun. 楽しかったです

Reviewed by: サマー

I participated with my 12-year-old and 8-year-old children. Although we were supposed to meet at 1 PM, we arrived 10 minutes late, but the guide said they were out for lunch.

Backpacks are not allowed; it's best to have something like a waist pouch that fits closely to your body. Some people were using insect repellent spray. I also got bitten by insects in a couple of places.

After changing to a different vehicle from the meeting point, we arrived at the Waipi'o Valley lookout. From there, the road continued to descend steeply. It was quite bumpy, and we crossed a river along the way. I'm glad we didn't have lunch right before; we would have definitely gotten car sick.

When we reached the scenic viewpoint, the driver stopped the car so we could take photos from inside.

Upon arriving at the horseback riding location, there was an explanation in English. It was something like, "When turning right, pull the reins to the right..." My 8-year-old daughter was scared because she is small, but she was trying her best since she couldn't ride with me. We rode for over an hour, and by the end, my legs were definitely tired.

The kids had a valuable experience, and we were all satisfied.

12歳と8歳の子連れで参加しました。
13時集合だったのに10分遅れてしまいましたがガイドさんがランチに行ってるとの事でした。

荷物はリュックはダメでウエストポーチみたいに体に密着するのがベストです。虫よけスプレーをふってる方もいらっしゃいました。私も2か所くらい虫に刺されました

集合場所から違う車に乗り換えワイピオ渓谷展望台に到着。そこから急降下の道が続きます。ガタガタ揺れますし途中川も渡りました。直前にランチしなくて良かったです。きっと車酔いしてそう
絶景ポイントがくると、車を止めれくれ車内から写真撮影。

乗馬場所に到着すると英語で説明があります。右に曲がるときは紐を右に・・・という感じの説明でした。
8歳の娘は小柄なため怖がっていたけど一緒に乗ることはできなかったため頑張っていました。
1時間以上乗っていましたが終わったときはやはり足が疲れていました

子供たちも貴重な体験ができたのでみんなで満足しました

It was a horseback riding tour that made full use of the time, guided by a local. 現地のガイドによる、時間をたっぷり使った乗馬ツアーでした。

Reviewed by: よよいの

Since it was horseback riding in the canyon, the horses didn't run, and although it was my first time riding, I was able to enjoy it thoroughly.

After gathering at Art Works, all participants took a 4WD down to the canyon. (This alone was quite impressive.) Once we reached the bottom, there was a quick explanation of the horses we would be paired with for the day, and then we started riding. When I participated, two staff members taught us how to hold the reins and operate the horse in English.

The riding time felt ample, and we progressed slowly while enjoying the views of the canyon.

<Personal Recommended Items>
1. Insect repellent spray
2. Waterproof case to hang an action camera or smartphone around your neck
3. Sunscreen

Along the way, there were puddles and rivers, so I thought it would be good to spray waterproofing on my athletic shoes to prevent mud and water from splashing.

I was satisfied to experience a horseback riding adventure that I can only enjoy in Hawaii.

渓谷での乗馬なので馬が走ったりすることもなく、初めての乗馬でしたが十分に楽しむことができました。

アートワークスに集合後、参加者全員で4WDに乗って渓谷まで下りていきます。(すでにこれがかなり見ごたえあります)
下までおりた後は、早速一人ひとりにその日のペアとなる馬の説明があって乗馬開始です。
私が参加したときは2名のスタッフの方が英語で手綱の握り方、操作を教えてくれました。

乗馬時間はたっぷりと感じるくらいいあり、渓谷の景色を眺めながらゆっくりと進んで良来ます。

<個人的 おすすめ携行品>
① 虫よけスプレー
② アクションカメラや、スマホを首からぶら下げられる防水ケース
③ 日焼け止め

道中、水たまりや川があって泥や水が跳ね返る場合があるので、運動靴などに防水スプレーをかけていくと良いなと思いました。

ハワイ島だからこそ見れる景色で、普段できない乗馬体験をすることができて満足しました。

MADE THE TRIP!

Reviewed by: Allie Bellinghauasen

This is one of the best horseback riding experiences my boyfriend and I have ever had! The instructions on how to get to the location were very well written out so it was a breeze to find! Our instructors were fantastic! They are the type of people who love what they do and are incredibly passionate and it shows! We were very excited, so it was great to have the energy matched! The ride was absolutely breathtaking! The high mountains that surround the area are a wonderful sight to take in, great for photo ops as well. All of the horses are well behaved and a joy to be around. When we find ourselves back in the area we will definitely be stopping by again. If you tend to get carsick, you may want to take some motion sickness medication before the drive down to the valley. Its quite bumpy but totally worth it!

It was great to have a small group of seven participants. My husband, who doesn't speak English, said the English guide was easy to understand.

Crossing the river while looking at Waipi'o Valley and slowly riding on horseback through the great outdoors was the best!

Also, the bumpy and steep road from the meeting point to the horseback riding location felt like an attraction and was fun.

Adventure experience in Hawaii ハワイでアドベンチャー体験

Reviewed by: 古希おっさん

The meeting place was easy to find with the navigation guidance. It wasn't too difficult to locate. When I arrived 15 minutes early, one group had already completed their check-in. After that, we gathered for a tour of 12 people. There were two Japanese, including my wife. We traveled by 4WD to Waipi'o Valley, but the path down to the valley from the viewpoint was steep and narrow. Although there was a fence on the valley side, there was a risk of a serious accident if the driving went wrong. The elderly man sitting behind the driver was holding his head while the driver explained things. It was a bit scary. Once we descended into the valley, the view of Hi'ilawe Falls and the canyon from the bottom was breathtaking. After about 30 minutes, we arrived at the location with the stables, and the horseback riding tour began. We received an English lecture on how to ride a horse, and each person was assigned a horse. The horse commands were given through the reins, but I managed to understand. Finally, the tour began. The horses were well-trained and moved in a line. My wife, who was riding for the first time, had some trouble when the horse stopped to drink water while crossing a river, but the staff assisted her. Riding through the greenery of the valley and along the stream was refreshing and an extraordinary experience. The horseback riding experience lasted about an hour. After getting off the horse, my knees hurt, but my wife said she felt fine. I had riding experience 50 years ago, but even beginners should have no problem riding. I highly recommend it.

集合場所は、ナビの案内で行けました。そんなに判りにくくはありません。集合時間15分前に着いたら1組が受付を済ませていました。その後、集まり12名のツアーでした。日本人は妻と2名。4駆でワイピオ渓谷まで移動しましたが、展望台から下の渓谷に降りる路は傾斜がきつく且つ路幅も狭く谷側にフェンスはあるものの、運転を間違えれば崖下へ落下の大事故になるリスクがあります。運転席後ろの席の年配おじさんは、後ろを見て解説する運転手に頭をかかえていました。少し怖いです。渓谷に降り、谷底から見るヒイラヴェ滝と渓谷は絶景です。約30分で厩舎のある場所に到着し、乗馬ツアー開始です。馬の乗り方について英語でレクチャーがあり、1人1人に馬をあてがわれます。馬の指示は手綱で行いますが、なんとか判りました。いよいよツアーです。馬もよく調教されていて、連なって進みます。乗馬初めての妻は河を渡る時、馬が水を飲み始め止まって困っていましたが、スタッフのフォローでことなし。渓谷の緑と渓流の中を馬で連なって進むのは気持ちよく、非日常の体験でした。1時間ほどの乗馬体験です。馬から降りたら膝が痛かった。妻はなんともないと言ってました。私は50年前に乗馬経験がありましたが、未経験者でも問題なく乗れるでしょう。おすすめです。

I traveled for an hour and a half from Kona. It was my first time horseback riding, and I don't understand much English, but I chose this experience because I read that important points would be explained in Japanese as well.

The guide was friendly, and since we could bring our dog along, it was a comforting experience for our dog-loving family!

I wanted to feel the air of Waipi'o Valley, so the leisurely horseback riding time was the best. I thought it would have been even better if I had understood the explanations more clearly.

Some of the horses were a bit energetic, but it seemed like they assigned them based on the riders' experience levels.

The weather was nice, and it was a pleasant horseback ride! Even though my English listening skills are not very good, I had a great time! We crossed a river, encountered wild horses, and got a glimpse of the local people's lives; it was a satisfying ride on the long course! The journey to get there was also very thrilling (laughs). However, there was an office next to the meeting point, but it wasn't mentioned on the voucher, so it was a bit hard to find. Also, that was the last place with a restroom, which made me a little worried. Other than that, I was very satisfied!

お天気もよく、気持ちのよい乗馬でした♪
英語があんまり聞き取れないレベルでも、とても楽しめました!
川をわたったり、野生の馬に遭遇したり、現地の人の生活が垣間見れたり、ロングコースで満足のいくライドでした!
行くまでの行程もとてもスリリングでした(笑)

Driving down the valley from the Waipio lookout is also part of the activity. I believe I can ride a horse that suits me. It seems to be a nervous horse, but I think I'll be fine. We weave through the trees, cross streams, and climb a little hill. Slowly. Next, I want to try galloping as well. The pleasant time passed in the blink of an eye.

WAIPIO lookoutから渓谷を車で下るのもアクティビティのうち。自分に合った馬だと信じ跨がる。神経質な馬らしい。だけど私なら大丈夫。木々を抜け、沢を渡り,ちょっとした坂も登る。ゆっくり。次はギャロップもしてみたい。気持ちの良い時間はあっという間でした。

ワイピオ渓谷  乗馬ツアー <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ワイピオ・オン・ホースバック

素晴らしい冒険の時間!!! Great Adventure time!!!

Reviewed by: sakurakko

When we decided to go to the Big Island, we wanted to ride horses. So we rented a car and joined this tour. We were worried about whether we could drive there, but it was easy. This tour was wonderful, and we had a great time. We experienced things we can't experience in Japan (for example, cracking macadamia nuts and eating freshly picked mangoes) before riding horses.

Moreover, the cats and dogs raised on the farm were very friendly and cute. We had ridden horses at various locations many times before, but the horses at this farm were very calm. We enjoyed crossing the river and strolling through the forests while riding. We took many photos.

This adventure was awesome!!!!!! We want to join this tour again if we go to the Big Island.

By the way, we went to “Tex Drive In,” which the guide recommended. We ordered malasadas with no filling, chocolate, and custard cream. The malasadas at this restaurant were very delicious.

Mahalo!!

ワイピオ渓谷 乗馬ツアー 絶景のなかを気軽に乗馬体験 <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ナアラパ・ステーブルズ

It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: KEN

I was moved by the guide's polite and overly kind Japanese (with a little bit of English mixed in). The explanation of horseback riding was slow and easy to understand. Once I was on the horse, I could relax and trust the horse, while three dogs accompanied us around. It was the best experience! I rode for over an hour, and it was so much fun. The nature was amazing, and I was truly satisfied.

ガイドさんの丁寧で優しすぎる日本語(英語の中で少しだけ入る)に感動し、乗馬の説明もゆっくりと分かりやすく、乗ってからは人に慣れた馬に体を任せて、その周りには3匹の犬が一緒に回るなんて最高でした。
1時間以上も乗馬していて、楽しくて楽しくて本当に自然も最高で大満足でした

ワイピオ渓谷  乗馬ツアー <午前・午後/英語ガイド> by ワイピオ・オン・ホースバック

It's a horseback riding tour surrounded by water, greenery, beautiful scenery, and wild fruits in the canyon. 渓谷で水、緑、良い景色、野生のフルーツに囲まれた乗馬ツアーです

I was a bit nervous about the English tour, but it turned out to be manageable. First, we filled out a waiver at the meeting point and received explanations about safety before boarding the van to Waipi'o Valley. During the briefing, we were advised against bringing backpacks, as they could cause us to lose balance and fall off the horse. I left my things in the car and went hands-free. A bag that fits snugly against your body should be fine.

When we arrived at the horses, the instructor explained how to ride. After that, we were matched with our horses. There were about 15 participants, with 7-8 Japanese and 6-7 Americans, so it took around 20 minutes for everyone to get matched. I was one of the first to ride, and my horse was moving around a lot, eating grass, which was quite amusing.

Once we set off, we crossed rivers and walked along mountain paths. The guide explained the fruits growing along the roadside, which was interesting. The whole horseback riding experience lasted about two hours before we returned.

When participating, it's best to wear comfortable sneakers that you don't mind getting dirty, along with jeans or hiking pants and a shirt that can get wet. Since the horses tend to stick their heads under branches, wearing long sleeves can help prevent scrapes.

英語ツアーとのことで、ちょっと緊張しましたがどうにかなる感じでした。
最初に集合場所で誓約書的なものを記入し、危険に関する説明などを受けてバンに乗ってワイピオ渓谷へ向かいます。説明の中ではリュックサックなどはバランスを崩して落馬する可能性があるのであまりお勧めできないとのこと。私も車において手ぶらで行きました。ある程度体に密着するようなバッグなら大丈夫そうです。
馬のところに着いたら、インストラクターが乗り方を説明してくれます。そのあと各自に馬を引き合わせてくれて乗ります。参加したときは日本人7~8人、アメリカ人6~7人の15名くらいのメンバーだったので引き渡しに20分くらいかかった印象です。私は最初に乗ったので馬がアチコチ動き回って草を食べたりしてなかなか面白かったです。
出発してからは川を渡ったり、山道を歩いたり。
ガイドさんが道端に生っている果物を都度説明してくれて興味深かったです。
およそ2時間くらい乗馬して帰ってくる工程です。
参加するときはスニーカーなどの履きなれて汚れてもよい靴、濡れてもよいジーンズやハイキング用のズボンとシャツで行かれるとよいです。また馬が木の枝の下などに頭を突っ込むのでできれば長袖の方が擦り傷など付かなくてよいと思います。

  • こんな感じでテクテクと

  • ワイピオ渓谷で一番いい眺め(だと思う)

  • 帰ってきました。

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

The ranch's highland was spacious and made me feel very good. 牧場の高原は、広々としていて、とても気分が良かったです。

Even if you can't speak English, they can explain things slowly with gestures, and the horses are well-trained, remembering where to walk and where to run. I felt safe riding them.

英語が話せなくても、説明は、手振りそぶりをゆっくりしてもらえますし、馬がよく調教されており、歩くところ走ってもよいところ、全部覚えていました。安心して乗せてもらえました。
