Waipi'o Valley is a very beautiful place! ワイピオ渓谷はとても美しい場所！

Reviewed by: Lily

Waipi'o Valley was a wonderful place with a gentle atmosphere. You can easily reach the viewpoint by car, but the road down to the valley is off-limits for rental cars and is a narrow, bumpy, steep path that is best avoided if you're not experienced. It's advisable to know in advance where to pull over to avoid oncoming vehicles. Very few people walk down, and since there are no markers once you descend, I think it's better to go on a tour rather than trying to navigate on foot.

Initially, the staff will take you by car to the horse stable in the valley. There were 8 participants in the horseback riding tour, accompanied by 2 staff members. The instructions on how to ride were simple, mixed with broken Japanese, but the horses were all very smart and guided us along (laughs). Unlike in Japan, where someone typically leads the horse, each person is given a horse and can ride right away, even if it's their first time. It's so much fun!

When I considered booking beforehand, the Japanese tour was a full day, so I opted for this half-day option instead. Since it's a first experience, it requires quite a bit of stamina, so I think half a day is sufficient.

ワイピオ渓谷は、穏やかな気が流れる素晴らしい場所でした。
上から眺める展望台には車ですぐ行けますが、そこから渓谷に下る道路はレンタカーでは通行禁止ですし、無理に行こうとするのは止めた方が良いガタガタの急勾配の狭い道です。対向の車を避けるのも、あらかじめ避ける場所を把握していた方が良い、慣れた人が行く道です。
歩いて下る人もとても少ないです。下りてからも道しるべなどはないので、ぐるっと巡るとなると、馬ではなく歩くのだとしてもツアーで行った方が良いと思います。

はじめに、スタッフが渓谷の馬小屋まで車で連れて行ってくれます。乗馬ツアーには、8人が参加して2人のスタッフが付きました。
馬の乗り方は、カタコトの日本語混じりの簡単な説明だけでしたが、とにかく、お馬さんたちがみんな賢くて、連れて行ってくれます(笑)
日本にありがちな、手綱を誰かが引いて連れて行ってくれる訳ではなく、初めてだろうが1人１頭与えられ、いきなり乗せてもらえます。
とっても楽しいです！

予約前に検討した際、日本語のツアーだとまる1日だったので、午前中だけのこちらにしました。初体験だとかなり体力が必要ですので、半日で十分だと思います。

Horseback riding experience 乗馬体験

Reviewed by: aaa

We traveled by car from the reception area to the horseback riding location, but the road was quite bumpy and long, and near the canyon, the slope was steep and a bit scary. The horseback riding was very enjoyable, but I felt there wasn't much of a canyon experience. However, I was glad to have the opportunity to ride while feeling the nature of Hawaii.

受付場所から乗馬する場所まで車で移動するのですが、それがかなりガタガタの道で長く、渓谷近くでは坂が激しく少し怖かったです。
乗馬はとても楽しかったですが、渓谷でしている感はあまりなかったなぁと思います。ですがハワイの自然を感じながら乗馬する体験ができてよかったです。

Reviewed by: nabe

It takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes from Royal Kona Resort. As soon as you arrive at the ranch, there is a parking lot on the right side. The gate is closed, so you need to open it yourself to park. The staff speaks very clear English, which is reassuring. Riding through the grasslands feels wonderful. You can ride the horse for about 50 meters three times. The horses are very well-trained, so you can ride with confidence.

First time horseback riding! Waipi'o is the best! 初めての乗馬！ワイピオ最高！

Reviewed by: あけみ

My first horseback riding experience! Even though my English is terrible, I had a great time.

First, they explained how to handle the horse. Of course, it was in English, but they also provided important points in broken Japanese, and with gestures, I was able to understand most of it.

As soon as we mounted, the well-behaved horses moved along, taking breaks by the water and grazing. I enjoyed the negative ions of Waipi'o while learning about taro, noni, and kukui trees!

The view from the observation deck was amazing, but the sight of Hiilawe Falls from below was also magnificent.

初めての乗馬！しかも英語はまるっきりダメな私でしたが、充分楽しめました。
先ず初めに馬の操作を説明されます。勿論英語ですが、重要な所はカタコトの日本語で説明がありジェスチャーでだいたいは分かります。
直ぐに騎乗するとお利口さんな馬達が、水辺で休憩したり草を食べたりしながら進みます。
タロイモ、ノニやククイの木々など説明を受けながらワイピオのマイナスイオンをたっぷり味わいました！
展望台から見る景色も最高ですが、下から見るヒイラベの滝も雄大でした。

We participated as a family. Including my 8-year-old son, it was the first time for everyone except my wife to go horseback riding, and we were a bit anxious, but we were able to enjoy it thanks to the friendly guide who spoke simple English. I would like to join this tour again when we visit the Big Island. As the title suggests, we drove up a steep slope to the riding area and crossed a stream. This was also enjoyable, so you can have double the fun in one experience.

We participated as a family of four with our 8-year-old and 10-year-old sons. I was a bit worried about whether it would be okay for my 8-year-old, but they lent us helmets, and the cowgirl explained how to handle the horses clearly and slowly. Perhaps because it was after a typhoon, the wind was strong, but we enjoyed the vast ranch spreading out in all directions, the beautiful coastline, and many sheep and cows, fully experiencing nature. There were cowgirls at the front and back who kept a close eye on the children, and they helped us choose friendly horses for my husband and kids, making it feel like they were always by our side. This is truly amazing; it's an experience that is unimaginable in Japan. We thoroughly enjoyed the two-hour course.

8歳、10歳の息子達と家族4人で参加しました。8歳で本当に大丈夫かとやや不安もありましたが、ヘルメットも貸してくださり、カウガールのお姉さんがはっきりゆっくり馬の扱い方をを説明してくれました。台風の後だったせいか風は強かったですが、360度一面に広がる牧場と、美しい海岸線と沢山の羊に牛に、大自然を満喫。先頭と後方にカウガールがついてくれてしっかり子供を見てくれたし、馬も主人と子供とで仲の良い馬を選んでくれていつもそばにいるような感じでした。
これは本当にすごいです、日本では到底考えられない体験です。2時間コースで満喫しました。

I participated with my high school daughter and husband. This was our third time riding, following the Grand Canyon and Parker Ranch on the Big Island, and we are still beginners. Before we rode, they explained how to ride and safety precautions very slowly and clearly in English. During the ride, they also talked about the ranch and the Big Island, engaging us in conversation, and they guided us in a very friendly and safe manner. We could see the coastline of Kona from the ranch, and the view was outstanding. They kept our valuables in a safe, which was really helpful.

We participated as a family of four. There were also two couples, making a total of eight people. I think we were on the horses for just under two hours.

Everything was in English, but the staff was very friendly and explained the history of Waipi'o Valley in a way that was easy to understand.

The weather was nice, and riding horses in nature was very relaxing.

While the service wasn't overly luxurious, they took family photos from various angles, and even when there were delays or the line got mixed up, we were guided smoothly without feeling rushed, allowing us to enjoy the scenery with peace of mind.

The kids were very satisfied, so we would like to participate again.

The cat in the stable was cute.

至れり尽くせりのサービスではありませんが、家族での写真も色々な角度で撮ってくれましたし、列が乱れたり、遅れたりしても急かされる事なく、上手く誘導してもらえたので、安心して風景を楽しめました。

Reviewed by: ポンた

I participated with my middle school daughter. Both of us lacked sufficient English skills, so there were many parts of the guide's explanations that we couldn't understand. They would answer our questions, but there wasn't much kindness or consideration shown. It was raining quite a bit, and it felt like we were just turning back on the same path, making the journey monotonous. The rain gear they provided was excellent, and we didn't get wet at all in the covered areas. I wonder if it would have felt nice if it had been sunny.

中学生の娘と参加。ふたりとも英語力が足りないので、ガイドの方の言っている説明が、理解できない部分が多くありました。質問すれば教えてくれるけど、あまり親切に心配りをしてくれるとか、配慮をしてくれるとかは、なかったかな。雨が結構ふっていたし、同じ道をUターンしている感じで、単調な道のり。かしてくれた雨具は、優秀で、隠れている部分は全然ぬれなかったです。晴れてたら、気持ちよかったのかなー。

とても良い！ very good!

Reviewed by: Tesla1432

Since it's well-trained, just riding is enough. Two and a half hours is just right—not too short and not too long. The reins are held with one hand, unlike in Japan. (Using both hands when changing direction is smoother.) You can take photos freely. (It might be safer to have a strap attached in case you drop your phone.) Jumpers and boots are available for free rental, but you might not need them if the weather is good.

よく調教されてるので騎乗してるだけでいい。
2時間半だと短すぎず長すぎず丁度良い。
手綱は日本と違い片手持ち。
(向きを変えるときは両手スタイルのがスムーズ)
写メは各自自由にできます。
(落としたらまずいのでヒモ付きだと安心かも)
ジャンパー、ブーツは無料レンタルできますが天候が良ければ必要ないかも

Enjoy the magnificent nature! 雄大な自然を満喫！

Reviewed by: もやし

I participated in the morning session. It took about an hour and a half from Kona to reach the meeting place. We drove to the stable in the canyon and chose our horses. The instructions were 100% in English, so I had to pick up on the reins and precautions somewhat intuitively (laughs). The horses are well-trained, and the instructors are positioned at the front and back of the line, so I didn't feel particularly anxious. However, some horses would stop to eat grass or drink water and act freely, so I think it's important to take the lead.

By the way, what I found personally helpful to bring was a windbreaker. Depending on the timing (late April), I was caught in a sudden downpour that required an umbrella for about 10 minutes during the ride. I was unsure if it would be a nuisance, but I tied it around my waist and was able to quickly put it on while on the horse to shield myself from the rain, which turned out to be a great decision! They might provide raincoats if it rains from the start, but if it starts raining during the ride, each person will need to handle it on their own! Everyone was using insect repellent spray as well.

The instructors were all kind, explaining plants along the way and taking photos, which made for great memories. It's not often you get the chance to ride through such magnificent nature, and I'm glad I participated. I would love to do it again if I come back to the Big Island. Lastly, after horseback riding, I had a malasada at Tex Drive In near Honokaa, which I also recommend.

　午前の部に参加しました。
コナから1時間半程かかって集合場所に到着。渓谷にある馬屋まで車で移動し馬を選んでもらいます。
説明は100%英語なので手綱操作や注意事項は何となく察する感じで(笑)
馬はよく調教されてますしインストラクターの方が隊列の前後にいるので特に不安は感じませんが、馬によっては止まって草を食べたり水を飲んだり好き勝手に行動するので主導権を握る事が大事だと思います。
　ちなみに個人的に持って行って役立ったのがウインドブレーカーでした。
時期(4月末)によるのかもしれませんが、乗馬の最中に10分程普通に傘がいるレベルの通り雨に降られました。邪魔になるかな？と思いつつ腰に巻いていきましたが馬上でさっと羽織って雨をしのぐことができて大正解でした！
最初から雨の時はカッパをかしてくれる？かもしれませんが、途中で降った場合は各自で対応になります！
後は虫よけスプレーをみんな使っていました。
　インストラクターの方はみんな親切で途中で植物の説明をしてくれたり、写真を撮ってくれていい思い出になりましたし、雄大な自然の中を馬で散歩できる機会なんてそうそうないし参加して良かったです。
またハワイ島に来たらやってみたいです。
最後に、乗馬の後はホノカア近くのテックスドライブインでマラサダを食べましたがこちらもオススメです。

I was so excited! ドキドキしたぁ

Reviewed by: ババール

I signed up for horseback riding even though I couldn't speak English, thinking I could manage somehow. However, I found that I could hardly understand the explanations in English, and I only grasped the instructions through gestures. After quickly choosing a horse, we were off. I was really anxious, but the horse was well-trained and moved forward to some extent. At first, I was just trying to stay on, but gradually I was able to take in the scenery. However, at one point, the horse started eating grass, and when I tried to overtake another horse, I got scolded and almost fell off, desperately hanging on.

As I got more comfortable, I learned to control the horse so that it wouldn't get too close to others, and I started to find it cute. The freshness of the valley and my first horseback riding experience were thrilling yet enjoyable. I believe I can ride better next time. The time felt quite long, and my backside started to hurt a bit, and my legs were trembling afterward. I didn't have the chance to drink water during the ride because I couldn't let go of the reins. I took pictures with a camera hanging around my neck, using one hand. A guide did take a picture for me once.

初めての乗馬で英語が出来ないのに何とかなるかと申込みました。やはり英語の説明がほとんど理解出来ず、説明している時のジェスチャーのみで理解し、すぐ馬を選ばれて乗り込んだら出発です。すごーく不安でしたがそこは調教済のお馬さん、ある程度は進んでくれます。はじめは乗ってるだけで精一杯でしたが徐々に景色を観る余裕が。でも途中で草を食べ始めたり、他の馬を追い抜こうとして怒られ、ヒヒーンとなり落ちそうになって一生懸命捕まりました。
慣れてくると他の馬に近づき過ぎないようにコントロール出来るようになったりするので可愛く思えてきます。渓谷の清々しさと初めての乗馬はハラハラしつつ楽しかったです。次はもっと上手く乗れるはず。時間はけっこう長く感じました。少しお尻が痛くなり、終わった後は足もプルプルしました。手を離す余裕がなく途中で水を飲むことは私はありませんでした。写真も首にかけたカメラで片手で適当に撮る感じでした。一度ガイドさんが撮ってくれましたが。

A must-try experience. 一度は体験するべき

Reviewed by: KI・RA・TO

We signed up for a one-and-a-half-hour plan for beginners as a family. We drove to the ranch with a rental car. The sign is simple and easy to overlook. Since it's a one-way road, it’s difficult to make a U-turn if you miss it. In March, it was a bit chilly, and the weather was partly cloudy. When we mentioned our reservation name, they provided us with helmets, jumpers, and a waist pouch for valuables (free of charge). After a brief lesson on how to use the reins, we set off immediately under the guidance of the instructor. The highlands offered a refreshing feeling with a 360-degree view. If the weather had been good, we might have been able to see the ocean, but unfortunately, it was cloudy and obscured. The horses were calm and moved slowly while grazing along the way, so I think even beginners can participate with confidence. While Kualoa Ranch on Oahu is nice, the spacious grasslands are unique to the Big Island.

午前中の1時間半のプランで、初心者ばかりの家族で申し込みしました。牧場まではレンタカーで向かいました。目印の看板はシンプルで見落としがちです。一本道なので通り過ぎるとＵターンが難しいです。3月は少し肌寒く、天気は薄曇りでした。予約している名前を告げると、ヘルメットとジャンパーと貴重品を入れるウエストポーチを貸してくださり(無料）、簡単な手綱の使い方を教わると、インストラクターのお姉さんの引率で即出発です。360度見渡す限り高原で、清々しい気持ちになります。天気が良いと海まで見られたかもしれませんが、あいにくの曇り空で霞んでいて見えませんでした。馬は大人しく、途中草を食べながらゆっくり進みますので、初心者の方でも安心して参加できると思います。オアフ島のクアロアランチも良いですが、広々とした草原はハワイ島ならではないでしょうか。

I experienced horseback riding for the first time this time. I was worried about whether I could ride well, but they provided a proper explanation beforehand, and I was able to enjoy it until the end.

I don't speak much English, but they explained things clearly, and there are important explanations in Japanese as well, so I think it's fine for those who only understand Japanese.

I was able to fully enjoy the nature of Waipi'o Valley and had the precious experience of crossing a river on horseback.

Of course, the Big Island has wonderful beaches, Kilauea, and Mauna Kea, but I truly recommend this horseback riding tour as well!

The owners were very informative, having both grown up in Waipio. The tour takes you along their property and a small portion of private property outside of public access areas. It was great to learn so much info about Waipio! The owners have the answers to all your questions and have great stories to share about their time there. In terms of scenery, the only thing I wish was that the horseback tour took you to see more than just their taro farm below and the small patch we traveled by horseback. Overall the interactions with the owners make this a great choice for your horseback tour! They are as authentic as you can get to the Waipio, Hawaiian culture!

What a great way to learn the history of the valley and the people that live there. I had no idea how tara was grown and the diversity that exists in the valley!!

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

Definitely worth a visit! 行く価値あり！

I signed up at my partner's strong request, and since it was quite expensive, I participated without much enthusiasm, but it turned out to be more enjoyable than I expected.
We started with a brief lecture before setting off. The wonderful scenery seen from the back of the horse was, of course, much higher than my usual view, which made it enjoyable.
The child of the foreign family accompanying us was around elementary school age, and they had a great time.
We splashed through the flowing river, and at one point, we had trouble with a horse that stopped to eat grass and wouldn’t move at all, but looking back, that became a fun memory.

連れ合いのたっての希望で申し込んだが、それなりに高額なので、気乗りせずに参加したが、思ったより楽しかった。
最初に簡単なレクチャーがあって出発。馬の背から見る素晴らしい風景は、当然ながら普段よりずっと視線が高いので楽しめた。
同行の外国人の親子連れの子供は小学生ぐらいだったが、十分楽しんでいた。
川の流れの中をジャブジャブ入って行ったり、途中で止まって草を食べ出して全然動かなくなってしまった馬に困ったりもしたが、後になればそれも楽しい思い出になった。

I had a great time. とても楽しかったです

Since I had never ridden a horse before, both my children (a fourth grader and a third-year middle school student) and I were very anxious. However, after listening to the instructions and getting on the horse, we quickly got the hang of it and started to enjoy ourselves. There were some unexpected moments, like when the horse started eating grass or when it almost got into a fight with the horse in front of it, but those became fun memories as well. The horses for the kids were honest and serious, so they managed to ride them without any issues. The mountain scenery was beautiful, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience.

乗馬をしたことがなかったので、私も子供たち(小４と中３)もとても不安でしたが、説明を聞いてから馬に乗ってみると、すんなりと進んでいくので、だんだんと慣れて、楽しくなってきました。途中で草を食べてしまったり、前の馬にくっついてしまってけんかになりかけたり、、とハプニングもありましたが、それもまた、楽しい思い出となりました。子供たちの馬は、素直で真面目な馬だったので、問題なく、乗りこなしていました。山の風景がとても素敵で、最高に良い経験でした。

It's suitable for beginners. 初心者向けです。

I only walked slowly along the road, so I wanted to enjoy more varied scenery and a leisurely pace. For those who are riding a horse for the first time, it might be satisfying.

道路をゆっくり歩いただけだったので、もっと変化のある景色や並足程度は楽しみたかった。
馬に乗るのが初めての人には、満足かも。

Walking through the great outdoors. 大自然の中を闊歩

Our tour included three couples from the mainland besides my husband and me. There was also a Japanese tour with a guide fluent in Japanese at the same meeting time, but the instructions and riding techniques were explained so thoroughly that we had no trouble at all with the English tour.
I was unsure about wearing a helmet. If you're worried, you can wear one, but the other couples weren't wearing helmets, so we decided not to. All the horses were well-trained (though some were quite greedy and tended to wander off), so it was fine without a helmet.
There was a bag available at the stable that you could borrow for free. You can put drinks, smartphones, and digital cameras in it. One person on the same tour attached a handle to their digital camera and took lots of photos while riding. I thought it would be a hassle to carry a selfie stick, so I just took my smartphone, but I was nervous about dropping it while taking pictures. I wished I had attached it to the selfie stick.
We also rode through the beautiful nature along the river, soaking in plenty of negative ions.
It was an afternoon tour, and it drizzled a bit on the way, but we were lucky that it didn't rain at Waipi'o! I would love to go horseback riding again when I visit the Big Island.

私たちのツアーには私たち夫婦以外に本土からのカップルが3組でした。同じ集合時間で日本語が堪能なガイドによる日本語ツアーもありましたが、注意事項も乗り方も丁寧に教えて下さるので英語でも全く不便はありませんでした。
迷ったのはヘルメットの着用。心配なら着用、他のカップルは着用なしだったので着用なしで。馬はどの子も良く調教されてるので（一部かなり食いしん坊で寄り道の多い子もいましたが）ヘルメットなしでも大丈夫でした。
馬屋に蔵につけるバッグがあり、無料で借りれます。
飲み物やスマホ、デジカメなど入れておくことができます。同じツアーの方がデジカメにハンドルをつけて乗馬しながらバシバシ写真を撮ってました。私は荷物になるかとスマホの自撮り棒を外してスマホのみ持って行きましたが、落としそうでハラハラしながら撮影してました。自撮り棒につけていけば良かったなと思いました。
大自然の中川の中も進んで行きます。マイナスイオンをたっぷり浴びてきました。
午後からのツアーで、行く途中パラパラと雨が降っていましたが、ワイピオは雨が降らなくてラッキーでした！またハワイ島に行った時には乗馬したいです。
