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。

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.

We moved to the meeting point by rental car. There was no parking, so we had to park on the street. We were the only Japanese people there, and there seemed to be many elderly white people. I had heard there were two snorkeling points, but there was only one at Captain Cook, which was a bit disappointing. The staff were energetic and cheerful, and since the explanations were only in English, I couldn't understand anything, but they were very kind and friendly, which made me feel completely at ease. I didn't have high expectations for the meal since it was on the boat (sorry), but it turned out to be very delicious. The hamburgers had unlimited toppings, so I piled on as much as I wanted without hesitation. There were drinks available, but they were just okay. On the way back, we encountered a family of whales, and they kindly stopped the boat so we could observe them closely.
レンタカーで集合場所まで移動。駐車場がないので路駐になりました。日本人は私達だけ。白人のお年寄りが多い印象でした。2か所と聞いていたシュノーケルポイントはキャプテンクック1か所だけで、少し物足りなかったです。スタッフさんは元気で明るく、説明は英語だけでしたから全く理解はできませんでしたがとても優しくフレンドリーで感じが良くて、不安になることは一つもありませんでした。食事は船上ということもあり期待をしていなかったのですが(ごめんなさい)、これがとても美味しかった。ハンバーガーは自分で好きなだけトッピングできたので遠慮なくたくさん乗せました。飲み物はありますがいまいち。帰りにクジラの家族に遭遇し、わざわざ船を止めてくれたのでゆっくり見学できました。

During my first visit to the Big Island, I participated in two sightseeing tours and thoroughly enjoyed exploring the island. While searching for memorable activities, I discovered this sea kayaking tour. Indeed, the views from the water are something you can't fully appreciate without experiencing them firsthand. While on the water, I was welcomed by a pod of dolphins, which was a memorable experience. The photos taken during the tour also serve as wonderful memories.
今回、初訪問のビッグアイランドで、2つの観光ツアーに参加して、一通り島内観光を満喫したので、何か思い出に残るアクティビティを探していたところ、このシーカヤック ツアーを発見しました。やはり、陸上からだけではなく、海の上から眺める景色は、体験してみないとわからないものです。海上では、イルカの群れの歓迎を受けることが出来て、思い出深い経験でした。撮影していただいたツアー中の写真も、良い思い出として残っています。

I had gone kayaking once on a lake, but it was my first time in the ocean, so I was a bit worried. However, with the excellent guidance from Kevin and Noni, I was able to paddle smoothly without veering off course, and getting back into the kayak from the ocean was also seamless. I was thrilled to successfully navigate through the underwater cave as well. While enjoying the leisurely kayaking and snorkeling, with explanations about the surrounding scenery, I didn't even end up with sore muscles. It was the best experience!
湖で1回カヤックをしたことがありましたが、海では初めてで少し心配でした。でもKevinさんとノニさんの指導が良く、曲がらずに楽に漕げたし、海からカヤックに上がるのもスムーズに出来、海中洞窟からバックするのもうまく出来て、うれしかった。周りの景色の説明を受けながら、のんびりカヤックとシュノーケルが出来て、筋肉痛にもならずに、最高でした。

I booked a horseback riding tour in Waipi'o Valley at the request of my family. I was a bit anxious about the lack of transportation and that it was only in English, but I arrived without any issues using Google Maps for navigation, and I managed to communicate through gestures and simple words. Riding in the great outdoors, which we wouldn't have been able to do on our own, was truly amazing. The satisfaction exceeded my expectations, and if I have the chance to go again, I would love to join this tour once more!

The tour was nice and Big Island is beautiful, but our tour guide gave an extensive history of Big Island which felt removed and disconnected from what we were seeing. The guide was asked multiple times from other people on the tour about things they had noticed during the tour but the guide was stuck on the historical narrative and refused to talk about "politics", yet the questions being asked were quite simple and relevant to what we were seeing. He was very knowledgeable but it made for a very tiring and boring ride. It would be great if he could break up the historical narrative with some more present-day information about Big Island.

On the third day of my stay at Sheraton Kona Resort, I signed up for the morning kayak experience! The session was originally scheduled for 9 AM, but it was changed to 7 AM due to the wave conditions, so I walked a few minutes to the meeting point. It was just the two of us Japanese guests, and our guide Noni was very kind and thorough in his instructions, and off we went!
You can put your belongings in a waterproof bag that you can borrow, but I wouldn't recommend bringing too much. Paddling the canoe while basking in the morning sun is wonderful, but sunglasses and a hat are essential due to the strong sunlight.
Paddling a considerable distance uses a lot of energy, but the wide, beautiful ocean and the refreshing breeze of nature without any noise are very pleasant. Even those who can't swim can float around with a life jacket while snorkeling, and there are lots of cute black and yellow fish, which is very soothing.
I panicked for a moment when I looked up and couldn't see the canoe, so it's important to be careful not to get too absorbed (laughs). Along the way, Noni shared some pineapple and chocolate muffins with us. Food tastes even better when eaten on the water.
Finally, Noni had a wonderful system where he emailed us various photos he had taken during the tour. I highly recommend this tour!
シェラトンコナリゾートで滞在して3日目にカヤック体験午前の部に参加申し込みしました!
9時からの体験でしたが、波の状態をみて7時からに変更になり、徒歩数分で待ち合わせ場所へ。

持ち物はお借りした防水バックに入れられますが、あまり多くは持ち込めないかと…。朝日を浴びながらカヌーを漕いで日差しが強いのでサングラスと帽子は必須。
結構な距離を漕いで体力使いますが、広くて綺麗な海と騒音の無い大自然の風が心地よい。
シュノーケルもライフジャケットを着てるので泳げない人でもプカプカ浮きながら黒や黄色の可愛い魚が沢山いて、これまた癒されます。
顔を上げたときにカヌーが見当たらなくて一瞬焦り、夢中になりすぎるのも要注意(笑)
途中、ノニさんがパイナップルとチョコマフィンのお裾分け。海の上で食べるものは、より美味しく感じます。
最後、ノニさんがいつ撮ってたのか色々な写真をメールで送ってくれるシステムがとても素晴らしかった♪
是非オススメしたいツアーです!

I'm an advanced rider and loved my horse and the entire experience. The guides are a delight and taught me much I didn't know about the valley and it's contents and history, even though I already knew quite a bit. I can't say enough about how perfect the experience was. I'll do this ride again and again, every time I come to the island. I could not have been more pleased with everything about this adventure.

We participated in the zip line experience without transportation. It was the first time for both a 66-year-old and a 51-year-old. The meeting place is easy to find, just off the main road, and the parking lot is spacious. We left all items that could fall, like rings, bracelets, and cameras, and moved to the course in a jeep. This was enjoyable in itself.
The first line was a short trial zip. It gradually got longer, and the last one was a couple's zip. I think it’s a well-thought-out course. The instructor takes photos (it would be nice if it were a bit cheaper). It was a refreshing experience that took us away from our daily lives.

I was worried about my English skills and whether I would enjoy it, but it was fine. There was nothing difficult, and I just let the well-trained horses take me on a walk while enjoying the scenery and plants. I thought it would have been better if the course didn't have a U-turn, but it seems that's how it is. All the tours I passed by were similar.
If you have a rental car, you can easily arrive with the help of a GPS while driving. I was torn between a plan with Japanese language support and transportation, but I recommend this tour because of its low price. The staff arriving late at the meeting time can be seen as a charming aspect of the foreign experience.

Once in lifetime trip with my parents (both in 70s but fit). We went to the ranch (a little hard to find), drove down with the guides in a 4 wheeler......quite a drive. A very scenic but bumpy 30 minute ride to stables, another 30 minutes to get the whole party mounted up on horseback, and then a leisurely 2+ hours trek through magical lush green landscape, splashing through streams and seeing wild horses grazing, surrounded by towering cliffs and occasional waterfalls.
Only issue -- you won't really hear the guides once you start going. So do some reading up on Waipio vallyet beforehand, and then just enjoy what you are seeing. My mom has never been on horseback, my dad maybe 40 years ago, and they did just fine.

I participated with my 4.5-year-old child, and they provided us with kids' masks and boards with viewing windows, which allowed my daughter to enjoy herself.
There was a decent variety and number of fish, and although the visibility was okay, I appreciated that we weren't trying to catch fish with sausages. The slide and diving board required just the right amount of courage, which was great. The restrooms on the boat were also clean.
The speed of speaking in English was fast, but they provided important information on a paper written in Japanese, so I felt there were no issues at all. (My language skills are at a level where I can manage basic conversations in English.)
We received plenty of snacks and fruits, the timing was just right, and dolphins swam alongside us on the way back, so I think the affordable afternoon plan was a good choice.
