Second experience. 2回目の体験

Last time it started to rain halfway through, but this time the weather was nice, and we were able to enjoy horseback riding at a leisurely pace. Everyone who went with me was satisfied.

前回は途中で雨が降ってきたんですが、今回は天気も良く、のんびりと乗馬を楽しむことができました。 一緒に行ったみんなも満足してました。

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー 滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く!<午前・午後/英語ガイド/食事付>by フェアウィンド号

Afternoon cruising 午後のクルージング

Reviewed by: りんりん

I previously participated in the morning cruise twice, but due to scheduling conflicts, I joined the afternoon cruise this time. Our group was the only one with Japanese participants. The waves were calmer than expected, and the snorkeling time was just right.

以前は午前のクルージングに2回参加しましたが、日程の都合で今回は午後のクルージングに参加しました。 日本人の参加者は我々のグループだけでした。 予想以上に波も穏やかで、シュノーケリング時間もちょうどいい位でした。

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's

Keahou Bay Kayak & Snorkel Adventure

Reviewed by: Joleene

Had a great trip celebrated turning 60 that day would kayak again though the rowing is strenuous. Augustine was my life saver as he helped me back in the kayak when my husband & I tipped over, that was the scariest thing. The two most helpful words were "don't panic" as I was starting to do just that but those words calmed me down. Augustine even retrieved my sunglasses which went 2o' deep. After snorkeling I could not get back in the kayak just don't have the upper body strength though I lift weights 4x's a week. Thanks again to Augustine & Rebecca great tour guides & personable fun people!

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック&シュノーケルツアー 海中洞窟探検プランあり <早朝・午前/日本語ガイド>by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

I had a great time! とても楽しかったです!

Reviewed by: misako

It was my first time kayaking, but I had a wonderful half-day guided by Noni and Kevin. I enjoyed kayaking, snorkeling in the beautiful sea, and relaxing on the lava rocks, fully experiencing the great nature of the Big Island. They also took photos during the tour, and I received all the data shortly afterward. It's often the case that photos taken during trips are sold at high prices, but in this tour, I felt that they were genuinely guiding us to enjoy kayaking without any such concerns. The personalities of the two guides were truly wonderful. Since it was a water activity, I chose this tour with a Japanese guide for safety, and it was definitely the right choice.

I participated from Mauna Lani, so the meeting point was a bit far, but I still felt it was worth it. Don't forget your rash guard, hat, and sunscreen as the sun is strong!

シーカヤックは初めてでしたが、ノニさんケヴィンさんの案内で楽しい半日を過ごすことができました。とてもきれいな海でのカヤック、シュノーケル、そして溶岩のうえでの岩盤浴とハワイ島の大自然を満喫できました。ツアー中は写真も撮ってくださり、後日すぐに全てのデータもいただけました。旅行中に撮ってもらう写真は販売目的で高額なことになることが多いですが、このツアーではそのようなことがなく、純粋にカヤックを楽しむためのガイドをしてくれていると感じました。ガイドのお二人の人柄がとても素晴らしいです。海でのアクティビティなので、安全を考えて日本語ガイドであるこのツアーを選びましたが大正解でした。

マウナ・ラニからの参加でしたので、集合場所までは少し距離がありましたが、それをもってしても参加してよかったと思えます。
日差しが強いのでラッシュガード・帽子・日焼け止めなどお忘れなく!

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ(キングカメハメハホテル内)<ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

It's a show that allows you to experience Hawaii. ハワイを実感できるショーです

Reviewed by: 若く見えるが実はおじさん

This time, my spouse and I stayed on the Big Island for six days.

We only booked the "Deluxe Tour to World Heritage Site Kilauea and Mauna Kea Stargazing (Volcano and Stars in One Day!) by Kailani Tours Hawaii" through VELTRA, so we also signed up for this plan to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere. It was definitely the right choice!

Although there were opinions in the reviews that everything was in English and it wouldn't be fun unless you were proficient in the language, I’m posting this to alleviate those concerns and help others enjoy it more.

1. First, the coupon reception
I attached a photo, but when you enter the Kamehameha Hotel and go to the right at the dedicated reception, you can present your coupon, and they will tell you the meeting place. (Staff were present at this reception from the morning.) This map was provided by the hotel. Since I’m not good at English, bringing it along to ask about the meeting place was a good decision. I might not have understood it just verbally... (It was in an area that seemed to explain Hawaii's history within the hotel.)

2. Meeting place and landmarks
I attached a photo for this as well, but there will be signs in the hotel, so that’s where you gather. The person at the dedicated reception told me to arrive by 5 PM, but be careful about that! It’s better to arrive about an hour early to secure a good spot in line. I arrived 50 minutes early and was at the front of the general line, but there was already one group in the priority line, and it became a queue after about 20 minutes. The seating is first-come, first-served, so it’s best to gather early!

3. Content
After lining up, I received a free lei (I didn’t purchase the paid ones) and took photos (they will come around selling them), and after checking in, we went to the venue to grab drinks and were shown to our seats. I was the first to arrive and sat in the front row center of the general seating, but the Japanese people who arrived normally and lined up were also seated together in fairly decent spots in a separate group. (It seems they make arrangements so that you can converse with others in Japanese.)

At the venue, a band was already performing, and there were free services like tattooing and weaving fish with grass. Of course, drinks, including alcohol, were free-flowing.

Dinner started around 6:15 PM, and it gets dark before 7 PM, so it’s best to wrap up your meal and drinks by then.

Having researched the structure of this event through reviews, I was able to enjoy it a lot even though I’m not good at English. It was fun. (I think it would be enjoyable even for families with children!)

今回はハワイ島に夫婦で6日間の滞在でした。

VELTRAさんの「高級バン(メルセデス・ベンツ)で行く!世界遺産キラウエアとマウナケア山麓星空観測(1日で火山と星 ♪)デラックスツアーby カイラニ・ツアーズ・ハワイ」しかツアーは申し込んでいなかったので、ハワイの雰囲気を堪能するためにこのプランも申し込みました。
参加して大正解でした!

口コミではすべて英語なので語学が堪能でないと面白くないとの意見も出ていましたが、そんな不安を解消するためと、より楽しんでもらうために投稿をします。

1.まずはクーポンの受付
 写真を張りましたが、カメハメハホテルを入って右手の専用受付にクーポンを出すと、
 集合場所を教えてくれます。(この受付は朝からスタッフが張り付いていました。)
 この見取り図はホテルでもらった見取り図です。英語が苦手なため持参して集合場所を聞い
 たのは正解でした。口頭だけだとわからなかったかも、、、
 (ホテル内にあるハワイの歴史説明エリアみたいなところでした。)

2.集合場所や目印
 これも写真を張りましたが、ホテル内に看板が出されるのでそこに集合です。
 専用受付の人は17時に行けばいいと教えてくれますが、そこは注意!
 約一時間前に行って列の先頭をとれるかとれないかの感じです。私は50分前に行って
 一般列の先頭でしたが、既に優先席列には一組並んでいましたし、20分ぐらいしたら行列
 になっています。観覧席は早いもの順なので早めの集合が良いですよ!

3.内容
 行列に並んだあと、無料レイ(有料例は購入しませんでした)を受けもらって撮影後
 (会場で売りに来ます)、本受付をしたのちに会場までいって飲み物を取って席に案内を
 してもらいます。
 私は一番乗りで一般席最前列中央でしたが、普通に来て並んでいた日本人たちは、別グルー
 プでもそんなに悪くない席にある程度まとめて座らせてもらっていました。(日本語で他人
 と会話ができるようにしてくれる配慮みたいです)
 
 会場ではすでにバンドが演奏、タトゥーや草で魚編む体験など無料のサービスがあります。
 もちろん飲み物もアルコールを含めてフリードリンクです。

 1815ぐらいから食事開始で、19時前には手元も暗くなりますから、それまでに食事や飲み
 物はひと段落しておいたほうがいいですね。

ある程度、このイベントの構成等を口コミ等で調べていたので、英語が苦手でもすごく楽しめました。
楽しかったです。(お子様がいても楽しめると思いますよ!)

Reply from activity provider

Thank you for coming to the Island Breeze Luau Show.
And above all, we are filled with gratitude for your warm message.
We appreciate the love we receive from everyone and the opportunity to work in the Hawaiian breeze.

Our hotel staff and dancers always strive to ensure that everyone enjoys their experience, but due to the influence of returning guests and reviews, we have noticed that many guests line up very early before the reception starts. Therefore, this year we have changed the lineup location from the beachside to the cooler hotel interior.

Receiving comments like yours and such thoughtful explanations inspires us to think of better improvements and motivates us to ensure everyone has a great time.

If you have the opportunity to visit the Big Island again, please stop by. We will always be waiting to deliver warm breezes and aloha.

この度はアイランドブリーズルアウショーにお越しくださりありがとうこざいました。
そして何よりも心温まるメッセージを投稿して頂き、
ハワイの風、皆様からの愛情を受けることのできる私たちの仕事に
感謝の気持ちでいっぱいでございます。

どのお席でも楽しんで頂けるよう
ホテルスタッフも、ダンサーも常に心がけておりますが
毎年楽しみに来てくださる方、また口コミもご覧になっていただいてる影響で
受付開始のお時間よりとても早くお並び頂いていることもあり
昨年まではビーチサイドでお並び頂いていたのを今年から涼しいホテル内に
変更させていただきました。

頂くコメントやこのようにご丁寧なご説明を頂けると、
より良い改善策を考え、楽しんで頂けるよう
私たちもまた努めるきっかけとなっております。

またハワイ島にお越しになる機会がございましたら、是非お立寄りくださいませ。
温かい風とalohaをお届けできるよういつまでもお待ちしております。

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

An exhilarating rafting experience! スリル満点のラフティング体験!

Reviewed by: hawaii.aya

We headed to the meeting place from the hotel by rental car. Since the Big Island of Hawaii has straightforward roads, I don't think driving is difficult, but there are very few signs, so it's best to check the location thoroughly before participating. Alternatively, I recommend asking for details at the hotel's Japanese desk!

For the activity, we traveled to the snorkeling point on a tube boat, as shown in the pictures. Just the ride on the tube boat was thrilling and enjoyable!

At the snorkeling point, we saw many fish and a sea urchin that was larger than anything I've ever seen! Also, while diving, I could hear the sound of fish pecking at the coral!

Regarding the cave exploration, I think you'll have a general understanding since you'll receive guidance in Japanese beforehand.

For meals, we had handmade sandwiches, cookies, potato chips, juice, water, and fresh pineapple and oranges cut by the captain on the spot.

I think bringing a towel, a camera, and sunscreen would be sufficient.

As mentioned in the precautions, there are no restrooms on the tube boat. Please be aware that you won't be able to go to the restroom for the four hours during the activity!

ホテルから集合場所までは、レンタカーで向かいました。
ハワイ島は一本道なので運転は難しくないと思いますが、看板は非常に少ないので、参加前に場所の確認はしっかりとしらべた方が良いと思います。もしくはホテルの日本語デスクのようなところで、詳しく聞く事をオススメします!

アクティビティは、写真にあるようなチューブボートでシュノーケルポイントまで向かいます。
チューブボートの移動だけでもスリル満点で楽しめました\(^o^)/

シュノーケルポイントではたくさんのお魚、みたこともない位大きなウニが見れます!
また、潜っているとお魚がサンゴを突つく音なんかも聞こえましたよ!

洞窟探検については、事前に日本語の案内がもらえるのでなんとなく分かるかと思います。

お食事は手作りサンドウィッチ、クッキー、ポテトチップス、ジュース、お水、船長さんがその場で切るパイナップルとオレンジでした。

持ち物はタオルとカメラ、日焼け止めがあれば十分かと思います。

注意事項にもあるかと思いますが、チューブボートのためトイレがありません。アクティビティ中の4時間はトイレに行けませんのでご注意下さい!

ハワイ島 ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー 滑り台や飛び込み台完備の船で行く!<午前・午後/英語ガイド/食事付>by フェアウィンド号

It was interesting. 面白かったです

Reviewed by: 60歳夫婦

It’s about a one-hour boat trip to Kealakekua Bay. For breakfast, we had bagels, papaya, melon, and coffee. Once we arrived at Kealakekua Bay, we started our first snorkeling session. For lunch, we enjoyed burgers, hot dogs, fruits, and drinks like cola and coffee, followed by our second snorkeling session. The joy of chasing fish in the clear, calm bay is exceptional. There were about 40 participants, but only three groups of Japanese, including us, totaling seven people, while most were Westerners. We borrowed floatation devices to swim, and even if you’re confident in your swimming, having a floatation device makes it easier. I thought I had applied enough sunscreen, but my shoulders got sunburned. Sunscreen is definitely necessary. It was a tour I would like to join again.

ケアラケクア湾まで約1時間の船旅です。朝食はベーグルとパパイア、メロンとコーヒー。
ケアラケクア湾へ着くと1回目のシュノーケル開始、昼食はバーガー、ホットドッグ、果物にコーラやコーヒーなどを食べ、2回目のシュノーケルを行いました。澄み切った穏やかな湾で魚たちを追う楽しさは格別です。40名程の参加者がいましたが、日本人は私たちを含め3組、7名だけで大半が欧米人でした。腰に巻く浮具を借り泳ぎましたが、泳ぎに自信があっても浮具はあった方が楽です。日焼け止めを十分に塗ったつもりでしたが、肩口は赤くなりました。日焼け止めは絶対に必要です。
また参加したいと思えるツアーでした。

Reviewed by: arita

Thank you, Kevin and Noni, for your support.
The OP tour in Hawaii left the biggest impression on me.
I have experienced various tours before, but none of them were particularly moving. However, this time, the kayaking, snorkeling, and paddleboarding were absolutely perfect.
First of all, the beauty of the ocean was remarkable, and it was a significant difference compared to Oahu, which was truly moving.
Additionally, the program was just right for me and my wife to experience together, and above all, we were very satisfied with the attentive service from the two instructors.
It seems that Kevin and Noni have other plans as well, so I would love to rely on you again next time.
Thank you very much.

Since it's a buoy and not a life jacket, those who are anxious might want to avoid it. Also, while it's a quiet bay, depending on the time, you can be pulled towards the rocks by the waves, so please be sure not to get too close to the rocks.

Kohala Waterfalls Hike & Swim Eco Tour + Off-Road Adventure with Picnic Lunch

Recommend it highly

Reviewed by: Larry Starnes

Chris, our guide was very knowledgeable, organized and encouraging. The hike was through a forest and green area with lots of water and waterfalls. We learned a lot about the plants, trees and animals, both native and those introduced from other places.
The swim at the end of the hike was very cold, but fun and refreshing. If you are young and healthty this will be a fun and easy hike, however, if you are long in the teeth,it will be moderate, lots of rocks and steps. If you have knee, back or hip problems don't take this hike. Otherwise, you will love it. Definitely worth the money. Ask for Chris to be your guide.

I especially recommend the staff at Kinkame Hotel!! キンカメホテルの人は特にオススメ!!

Reviewed by: サカマイ

Since I stayed at the King Kamehameha Hotel, I had no travel time at all. I wasn't sure where the reception was and got a little lost, but I saw a line forming, so I joined it. While waiting, I was asked if I wanted to buy a lei and had the chance to take some photos.

After checking in, I went to the venue next to the beach and made my way to my seat with a drink in hand. The Mai Tai was really delicious. I ordered various drinks and enjoyed them. The staff guided us to our seats as we arrived. Once seated, I chatted with the people next to me and across from me while waiting for the show to start. I was a bit anxious since I don't speak much English, but everyone was kind and spoke to me.

The show was entirely in English, but it was enjoyable to watch, so I found it interesting. It was an impressive performance.

However... since it was outdoors, there was a downpour, and I received a raincoat from the staff to watch the show. The show proceeded as scheduled despite the rain. Even in the downpour, I laughed with those around me, saying, "Wow, the rain is intense!" This became a good memory.

The food was delicious, especially the meat, taro, and poke. I think it's better to take a lot at once so you can enjoy the show at a leisurely pace. There are many types of drinks, so I believe you'll find a favorite.

I think this Hawaiian show offers an experience of "Hawaii" that you can't find on Oahu.

I would love to participate again if I stay at the King Kamehameha Hotel.

これも良い思い出です。

食事もおいしく、お肉、タロイモ、ポケがとてもおいしかったです。
一回でたくさん取ったほうがゆっくりショーが見れますので良いと思います。
飲み物もたくさん種類がありますので好みのお酒が見つかると思います。


オワフ島では味わえない『ハワイ』が体験できるハワイアンショーだと思います。

またキングカメハメハホテルに泊まったら参加したいです。

Dear Sakamai,

Thank you very much for attending the Luau show. I imagine it must have been quite challenging in the rain, but in Hawaii, we consider it a blessing. It means "the rain washes away the town, the people, and the hearts, making everything clean." We proceeded with the show with smiles, and it warms my heart to hear that you have good memories of it.

The show at the King Kamehameha Hotel received high praise, and it is a place we hold very dear in our long-standing relationship. We hope you will visit us again. It would be wonderful for us if you could enjoy plenty of food and drinks!

With Aloha.

サカマイ様
この度はルアウショーにお越し頂き誠にありがとうございました。
雨の中、とても大変だったのでは。。。と思いますが、ハワイでは祝福の雨。
「町も人も心もきれいに洗い流してくれる・・・」という意味がございます。そのまま笑顔でショーを進行させていただきましたが、
良い思い出とおっしゃってくださり、心がほっとする想いです。
キングカメハメハホテルでのショーは高い評価を頂き、私たちも長いお付き合いの中とても大切にしている場所です。
是非またお越し下さい。食事も、お飲物も、たくさんお召し上がりいただけると私たちも最高です!
Alohaを込めて。

ケアウホウ湾シーカヤック&シュノーケルツアー 海中洞窟探検プランあり <早朝・午前/日本語ガイド>by キング・カヤック・ハワイ

I want to participate again!!! また参加したいです!!!

Reviewed by: Masa

We participated as a couple.

It was our first sea kayaking experience, and I didn't expect it to be this much fun!!!

The weather was great, the sea was blue and calm, the water was clear, and the scenery was amazing!
I quickly got used to using the paddle and steering, but since the kayak sways quite a bit, I think it's a good idea for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some anti-nausea medication beforehand.

During snorkeling, we were able to see many beautiful fish and corals. My wife, who was experiencing this for the first time, seemed to enjoy herself safely while wearing a life jacket.

Our guides, Kevin and Noni, were very attentive and made the experience enjoyable! The ripe pineapple we had at the end was incredibly sweet and delicious.

I definitely want to participate again!!!

夫婦で参加しました。

初めてのシーカヤック体験でしたが、こんなに楽しいものだとは思いませんでした!!!

天気も良かったので、海は青くて穏やかで、水は透明、景色も最高!
パドルの使い方や操船にもすぐに慣れましたが、カヤックはかなり揺れるので
乗り物酔い・船酔いしやすい方は、酔い止めを飲んでおくのが良いかと思います。

シュノーケリングでは、たくさんの美しい魚やサンゴを眺めることができました。
初体験だった妻もライフジャケット着用で、安心して遊べたようです。

ガイドのケビンさんとノニさんもすごく丁寧で楽しくガイドしてくれました!
最後にいただいた完熟パイナップルは、抜群に甘くて美味しかったです。

ぜひまた参加したいです!!!

Waipio Valley Waterfalls & Horseback Riding Tour with Naalapa Stables [Closed]

Lovely ride in Waipo Valley

Reviewed by: carrie

As a horseowner I am always a little leery of trail riding at unknown stables but I was pleasantly surprised to see the good condition and decent manners of these horses. They were very suitable to carry a wide variety of sizes and experience of riders. The ride itself was well escorted by friendly staff and the scenery was beautiful and enjoyed at a steady walking pace with the opportunity to take photographs of the beautiful and unique valley. The van ride down into and up out of the valley was an adventure in itself with amazing views. Shop at the art/gift store where you park as they have lots of lovely stuff at good prices.

I would rate this a "must do" on your trip to Big Island.

伝統ルアウ&フラ・ハワイアンショー アイランド・ブリーズ・ルアウ(キングカメハメハホテル内)<ブッフェ夕食/飲み放題/シェルレイ付>

Kink Kamehameha Dinner Show キンクカメハメハ内ディナーショー

Reviewed by: マミマミ

I was excited for my first dinner show, and I’ve lost track of how many days I’ve been in Hawaii. Being here makes me forget the days of the week and the date. I’m looking forward to the dinner show, which I’m seeing for the first time. The hula dancing was impressive; I can’t believe how much they can move their hips! Everyone was beautiful and wonderful, and the male dancer who used fire was great. Seeing the fire drop live was a fresh experience.

However, the disappointing part was that I couldn’t understand English, so I didn’t know what the host was saying. The meal was rushed, and the drinks ended quickly, leaving me unsatisfied. It’s a shame! I had higher expectations, and I wish they could improve that aspect of the dinner show. After the show, I took photos with the dancers, which was a nice memory.

I’m thinking of traveling again to see another dinner show. I have many memories from my time in Hawaii, and one of them is the dinner show. Next time, I want to study a bit more English so that I can understand the host’s talk better!

初めてのディナーショーワクワク、ハワイも何日目かなぁ〜、ここに居ると曜日も日にちも忘れてしまう。ディナーショー楽しみ、初めて見る。フラダンス、よくあれだけ腰が動くなと感心‼︎みんな綺麗で素敵でした、炎を使った男性良かった、炎を落としたところも、生で見たからわかるこのであって、新鮮でした。でも残念なことは…英語がわからなくて、司会の方がなにを言ってるか分からなかった。そして、食事、慌ただしく食べた、飲み物も、早く終わり、物足りなかった。残念‼︎もっと期待して居ただけに、ディナーショーってこんなもの、その辺を何とかしてもらいたい 。ディナーショーが終わって、ダンサーの方と写真を知りました。これも、思い出 (^∇^)また旅行してディナーショー見に行こうと思います。ハワイでの思い出いろいろあります。その中のひとつがディナーショー、今度は英語がもぅ少し分かるくらい勉強して、司会の方のトークが理解できるくらいになりたい〜(*^_^*)

Dear Mami Mami,

Thank you very much for attending our dinner show. For us, who love Hawaii and Polynesia, it is a great joy to share the beauty of our hearts, the land, and our traditions through dance with everyone.

During the show, our host provided explanations of the story, hula lessons, and activities, as well as traditional dishes, to help everyone enjoy the experience even more. We tried to express ourselves as much as possible through gestures, even when language barriers existed, all while ensuring that you could relax and enjoy your time with us, which is an important role for us as your hosts. Thank you for your valuable words; we are deeply grateful.

We are currently creating a pamphlet that we can share with everyone in Japan. We hope that next time, we can be even closer to you, Mami Mami, and that you will enjoy the show even more. Our team was born in Polynesia and has deep connections with people from Japan.

Although it's just a little, some of us have learned Japanese, and the male fire dancer loves "shabu-shabu." After the show, greeting everyone and taking photos is one of the dancers' joys, so please feel free to speak to us in Japanese☆.

We look forward to the day we can meet again. With Aloha.

マミマミ様
この度は、ディナーショーにお越しくださり誠にありがとうございました。ハワイそしてポリネシアの地を愛する私達にとって、
皆様に心や大地の美しさ、そして伝統を踊りを通してお伝えできることは何よりも幸せなことでございます。
ショーでは司会の者が、皆様によりよく楽しんでいただけるようショーのストーリー、フラレッスンなどのアクティビティや伝統料理の説明をさせて頂いておりました。ユーモアをもって言葉が通じなくでも!と思いながらできるだけジェスチャーで表現をしているですが、やはりごゆっくりおくつろぎ頂けるよう努めるのも
私どもがお迎えする大切な役割です。貴重なお言葉を頂きありがとうございました。深く感謝申し上げます。
現在日本の皆様にお渡しできるパンフレットを作成中です。是非、次回はマミマミ様ともっと親しくそしてショーも楽しんでいただけるようチーム一同ハワイでお待ちしたいと思っております。私たちチームはポリネシアの地で生まれ、また日本の方々とも深いつながりを持っています。
少し・・・ですが、日本語も習ったり、ファイヤーダンスの男性は『しゃぶしゃぶ』が大好きです。ショーの後皆さんにご挨拶をしたり、写真を撮る時間もダンサーの楽しみの一つですので、是非日本語で声をかけてみてください☆。
またお会いできる日を心待ちにしております。Alohaを込めて。

All four of us in the family were beginners, but it felt great to ride on a gentle horse. We moved slowly through the grasslands, so it wasn't scary at all. I definitely want to ride again next time.

家族4人みんな初心者でしたが、大人しい馬に乗ってとても気持ちよかったです。草原の中をゆっくりすすんでいくので怖くもなかったです。次回も是非乗りたいと思います。

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 give it a try! 是非トライしてみて

Reviewed by: どらみふぁ

I participated for the first time two years ago, recommended by the hotel concierge. We had no horseback riding experience and our English was not great, but it turned out to be an incredibly fun activity, so this is our second time joining. Just like last time, everyone else in the group was from Europe or America, but that was not a problem at all. The instructions are in English, but I think you can get the general idea. Additionally, there are explanations in Japanese posted on the stable walls, so you can understand how to ride the horse from that.

The group consists of about 12 people, with one guide at the front and one at the back, and we ride through the canyon for about 1.5 hours. The horse I rode this time was a 10-year-old stallion named "Rocky," who seemed to be the leader of the group, always walking right behind the front guide. Because of that, even though I couldn't understand the guide's English, I was able to listen to the explanations well.

This activity offers a wonderful experience of exploring the natural beauty of Waipi'o Valley, sometimes splashing through the river with the water up to the horses' bellies, making it so enjoyable that I want to go back for a second or third time. Also, when getting out of the car at the end, I noticed that the Europeans were giving tips to the guides, so don't forget that. We also gave a $30 tip for the two of us.

初回の参加は2年前で、ホテルのコンシェルジェに薦められて参加しました。乗馬経験も無く英語もダメな私たちですが、参加してみたら最高に楽しいアクティビティだったので、今回で2回目の参加です。前回と同様、私たち2人以外はすべて欧米人でしたが、全く問題ありません。説明は英語ですが、なんとなく雰囲気はわかると思います。それと厩舎の壁に日本語の説明書きが貼ってあるので、馬の乗り方はそれでわかると思います。1回あたり12人位のグループの先頭と最後尾にガイドさんが1人づつ付いて渓谷を約1.5時間の乗馬散策です。今回乗った馬は「ロッキー」という10歳の牡馬で、グループのリーダー格のようで、常に先頭のガイドさんの次を歩いていました。そのため、ガイドさんの英語がわからないながらも、説明をよく聞くことが出来ました。ワイピオ渓谷の自然の中で、時には川の中をジャブジャブと馬のお腹まで水に浸かりながら散策できるという、すばらしい体験ができるアクティビティなので2回、3回と行きたくなるくらいお薦めです。それと、最後に車を降りるときに、欧米人たちはガイドさんにチップを渡していたのでお忘れなく。私たちも2人で30ドルのチップを渡しました。

ハワイ島 ハイキング&オフロードドライブ 滝遊びもあり <1日/昼食付/英語ガイド>

A valuable tour that allows you to enter places that are usually off-limits! ふだんは入れない場所に入れる貴重なツアー!

Reviewed by: カルロス

I participated with my family in mid-August.

Since the explanations are in English, it might be confusing for those who don't understand, but I think you can still enjoy it if you understand even a little.

Driving through private land that you usually can't access in a 6WD is interesting, but the bumpy ride made me hit my head on the ceiling.

After sweating from trekking in the grasslands overlooking Maui, swimming in the waterfall pool with other participants at the end was refreshing and fantastic.

The lunch sandwiches were quite good as well.

If I have the opportunity, I would like to study English and participate in this tour again.

8月中旬に家族で参加しました。

英語の解説なので分からない人にはチンプンカンプンですが
それでも一部でも分かるなら楽しめると思います。

普段は入れない私有地?を6WDで走るのは面白いけど
激しい揺れで頭を天井にうちます^^

マウイ島を望む草原のトレッキングで汗をかいたら
滝めぐりの最後で参加者との滝壺スイミングは
気持よくて最高でした。

ランチのサンドイッチもなかなかのもの。

機会があれば英語を勉強してまた参加したいツアーでした。

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

Enjoy the magnificent scenery to the fullest. 壮大な景色をたっぷり満喫

Reviewed by: ベーチャン

Compared to Dahana Ranch and Waipi'o Valley, the weather is often relatively good on the western slope, allowing for views of not only the vast grasslands but also the Pacific Ocean. The sun was strong, and I ended up with sunburned arms after a two-hour ride. All the horses were quite greedy, munching on grass all around. Aside from the fact that I fell off when my foot slipped out of the stirrup during a trot, leaving a bruise on my thigh, it was a satisfying tour.

ダハナランチやワイピオバレーに比べると西側斜面にあるため、比較的天候が良いことが多く、大草原だけでなく太平洋も見ることができる。陽射しが強かったこともあり、2時間のライドで腕だけ日焼けした。馬はみな食いしん坊で途中でそこら中の草を食べまくっていた。トロットで鐙から足が外れて落馬し大腿部に大字が残ったことを除けば満足のツアーである。

  • よく食べる馬達!
