My husband and I had a tour with James through Hawaiian Eyes Tours and absolutely loved it!! The sunset was beautiful and the star gazing was such an eye opening experience! James was very knowledgeable about the sights and Hawaiian culture. Highly recommend!

I received a message the day before that the event might be canceled, and I was waiting for a notification on the day itself, but there was none. Somehow, I managed to get to the location with the rental car, but it was a bit hard to find.
With all that, I was feeling dissatisfied and anxious until it started, but once the horseback riding began, it was incredibly fun! The horses are just so smart. Since the altitude is high, it rained on some parts of the course, and there were muddy spots, but they walked very well.
The rain-soaked grasslands looked beautiful. In the midst of all this, a family of wild pigs, about ten of them, crossed the path like a scene from a movie. The two and a half hours flew by. It was truly a wonderful experience. I really want to go again!
前日に中止になるかもと連絡があり、当日の連絡を待っていましたが無し。何とかレンタカーが現地に行けましたが、少々分かりにくい場所です。
そんなこんなで始まるまでは不満と不安でしたが、実際に乗馬が始まると、めちゃくちゃ楽しい!
お馬さんがとにかく、賢いです。標高が高いので雨がコースによっては降ったので、泥濘みもありましたが、すごく上手に歩いてくれます。
雨に濡れた草原がキレイに映ります。
そんな中を映画の一コマみたいに野生の豚の親子が10匹程で横断します。2時間半があっという間にです。本当に素晴らしい体験でした。。
すごくまた、行きたいです。
英語のレクチャーですが、全然大丈夫です。お馬さんがコースを完璧に理解しています。

Tour guide was a local. This was once in a lifetime experience to go down into the valley and see the long cascading waterfall. We meandered through trails & crossed 7 streams and passed by taro fields.

We enjoyed our day. The staff were organized and very friendly. They ensured everyone was safe and comfortable. The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed being able to explore the property and look at the waterfalls. We had a nice time sitting by the waterfall and having time to enjoy going in the water. We were a bit disappointed by the ride itself as were are more seasoned and experienced riders. The pace was very geared to beginners and some guests had no clue what they were doing and that slowed the activity. We also hoped to have a ride close by ocean and that isn’t part of this activity, not their fault. I should have looked into that more. We basically road around through trails in a field. One last bit of advice, they should chill the drink they serve better. We appreciated though being provided a drink and snack part way through.
Ask about who you’re going to be touring with, as less experienced tourists slow the pace down.

My 7yr old (who doesn’t like to sit still) enjoyed this tour immensely! Especially trying to find the prawns in the stream. Would definitely do this again!

The zip line gradually becomes higher and longer, designed to be more exciting and high-speed, making it a lot of fun. The guides are also great at getting everyone excited, creating a sense of togetherness as we all enjoy ourselves. It's true that if you can't speak English, you might miss half of the conversation, but even so, I was able to participate in the discussions and feel the enjoyable atmosphere.
ジップラインは次第に高く、長いものになり、よりエキサイティングかつハイスピードになるよう構成されていて、すごく楽しいです。
ガイドの方も盛り上げ上手で、みんなで楽しもうという一体感があります。
確かに英語ができないと、話半分になっちゃいますが、それでも話の中には参加でき、楽しい雰囲気を感じることはできました。
If you rely entirely on the navigation system to get to the meeting place, you might not arrive. A little caution is needed at the end.

It's an English lecture, but it's totally fine. The horse understands the course perfectly.
