I opted for a one-and-a-half-hour experience, which was enjoyable and included a gallop. They provided thorough explanations about horseback riding and handling the horses in a way that was easy for children to understand. All the horses were well-trained and followed a set route, so my husband, who was experiencing this for the first time, seemed to have no worries. My 8-year-old daughter also had a great time and said she would like to do it again if we come back to Hawaii. We rode through the grasslands and made our way towards the sea, enjoying the refreshing breeze. I gave a small tip in cash to the guide who took such good care of us that day. Other participants also tipped, but the other Japanese family did not.
1時間半の体験にしましたが、十分に楽しめる内容だし、ギャロップもさせてくれました。子どもでもわかりやすいように丁寧に乗馬や馬の扱いについて、説明してくれます。どの馬もよく調教されて、決まったルートを回るので、初めて体験する夫でも不安はなかったようです。8歳の娘も楽しかったと喜んで、またハワイに来たら体験したいそうです。草原の中を通り、海の方まで回るので、風もあり気持ち良かったです。一生懸命に世話してくれたガイドさんには心ばかりのチップを当日現金で払いました。他の参加者も払ってたが、他の日本人の家族は払ってなかった。

We participated as a family of four with our 9-year-old and 11-year-old elementary school children! It was everyone's first time riding horses, so we were quite nervous, but we were able to enjoy a relaxing horseback ride on well-behaved horses without any major troubles.
The instructions were mainly in English, so the kids participated with almost no understanding, asking, "What are they saying?" But it was manageable. There was a Japanese explanation at the reception that outlined the basic rules, so those who are not confident in English might feel a bit more at ease after reading it. Additionally, if the horses don’t listen, the staff members accompanying us quickly help to correct the situation, which is reassuring.
They also take photos of each group along the way (don’t forget to bring your own camera or smartphone!). The 1.5-hour ride was quite fulfilling. The beautiful scenery of the vast grounds made it a great memory. I recommend this activity as a way to experience the great nature of the Big Island of Hawaii.
9歳、11歳の小学生と夫婦の4人で参加しました!
全員乗馬は初めて!なのでかなりドキドキでしたが、特にトラブルもなく、お利口な馬に乗ってゆったりと乗馬を楽しむことができました。
説明は基本英語なので子供達は「何て言ってるの?」とほぼ理解なしで参加してますが、何とかなります。受付のところに日本語の説明文があり、基本的なルールが書いてあるので、英語苦手な人は一読しておくとちょっと安心かなと。ただ、馬が言うことを聞かなくてもサポートで同行してくれるお姉さんたちがすぐ軌道修正してくれるので安心です。途中グループごとに写真も撮ってくれます(自分のカメラかスマホを持っていくのを忘れずに!)
1.5時間でかなり乗りごたえがありました。広大な敷地の景色の良さもあっていい思い出になりました、ハワイ島の大自然を感じられるアクティビティとしてオススメです。

It was drizzling at first, but later it cleared up and the scenery was amazing. Since it was an English guide, I couldn't really understand what was being said, but the horses were smart, so I managed to get by by watching them. Thank you very much.

We came for an adventure and left with an experience we’ll remember forever. Not only was the UTV experience so fun but we learned so many ancient Hawaiian stories, history, and culture from our tour guides who were all Hawaiian natives. The type of stuff you can’t google or find in books, but real life knowledge passed down from their ancestors that we were lucky enough to hear about. The UTVing was awesome and we saw the 7 valleys, beautiful views, and stopped at a small private waterfall, and collected some wild guava along the way which was delicious, but if you want a real Hawaiian experience it’s the people who work for the UTV tour that make the 2+ hours something you’ll remember forever. Truly amazing

Wow! Not only did we get to see the scenery as advertised, but it was also way more beautiful in real life than in the pictures. And not having been on an ATV before, it was very fun and exciting. We were taken on a pretty high-speed adventure right up the slopes of Mauna Kea. Seems like we gained about 1500 feet though it was hard to tell for sure. In addition to the views, we say a few tame cows and a heard of wild pigs! Our shuttle driver and tour guides, Isaiah, Jericho, Sam and Henry were really helpful, and Jericho was especially entertaining! They were all full of knowledge of the ancient Hawaiians that first landed on the Big Island, and had great stories about their heritage, and also Jericho had a great since of humor. He had us laughing the whole time! We would definitely take a trip with them again some time!

We have family in Hilo so visit Big Island annually. Over the years, we have seen most of the "tourist" sites so we now spend most of our time going on hikes and hanging out with the family. This trip, our main event was the Hawaii ATV Ride Tour and we four had a blast. We all rode in the same vehicle and two of us took turns driving. It was a lot more exciting than it looks on the website, the paths are rutted and bumpy and great fun. The guides were also great fun and provided, for us, just the right amount of local history and character.

Jerry drove us to and from the meeting point. He was super friendly and shared lots of stories about growing up on the island and the importance of family. He also pointed out places to eat in Kohala on the way back, which was good because we were hungry!
Isiah was the second guide on our tour, and he picked ripe fruit from the land during our snack stop at a beautiful waterfall. It was fun to try all fruits and hang out with them, learning the history of the land.

I participated in a 2.5-hour tour in the morning session. There were 12 participants from various countries, and we were the only Japanese attendees. The guides were two women.
I was anxious because I hardly speak English, but the guide, Jackie, was kind and spoke slowly using gestures, occasionally mixing in some Japanese to check on us. There was also a Japanese version of the consent form.
Based on our riding experience, we were able to choose a horse that suited us well. I rode Stormy, who has also been ridden by Jun Hasegawa! We started with a briefing, gave the horse some water, and then set off!
The horseback riding took place on a vast area where we walked and ran, and along the way, we saw Japanese wagyu and cedar trees, with the guide providing information. The weather and scenery were great, and it felt wonderful. Although the land was really expansive, the 2.5 hours flew by. If you're afraid of running, you can also go at a slow walk. There are spots along the way where you can take group photos with beautiful scenery.
When running, you kick the horse, and when stopping, you pull the reins. As long as you keep your heels down while riding, you should be fine.
It was truly a fulfilling 2.5 hours, an amazing experience that you can only have in a vast place like Hawaii Island. I definitely want to do it again.
I am grateful to the two guides, the other participants, and the horses. Thank you very much.
Additionally, the staff at Veltra were very courteous in handling time changes and schedule adjustments, which I appreciated.
午前の部の2.5時間のツアーに参加しました。

英語がほとんど話せないので不安でしたが、ガイドのジャッキーさんが親切で、ジェスチャーを使ってゆっくりと話してくれたり、時折日本語を混ぜて、気にかけてくださいました。同意書も日本語版がありました。
乗馬経験に合わせて、相性が良い馬を選んで貰えます。私は長谷川潤さんも乗ったことがある、ストーミーに乗りました!初めにレクチャーを受け、馬に水を飲ませて、出発です!
乗馬は、とても広大な土地で歩いたり、走ったり、途中和牛がいたり、杉の木があったりガイドもして貰えました。天気も景色も良くて、とても気持ちが良かったです。本当に広い土地でしたが、2.5時間があっという間でした。走るのが怖ければ、ゆっくり歩くこともできます。途中景色が良いスポットでグループ単位で写真撮影もして貰えます。
走らせる時は馬を蹴り、止まる時はロープを引っ張り、馬に乗っている時に踵を下にすることを気をつければ、ある程度大丈夫だと思います。
本当に充実した2.5時間で、ハワイ島のような広大な場所でしか体験できないような素晴らしい体験でした。また絶対にやりたいです。

I had my first horseback riding experience. Since all the explanations were in English and the other participants were also foreigners, I couldn't catch everything and felt a bit anxious, but I had a great time.
Riding the horse through the grasslands, running at times, and climbing hills was thrilling and very enjoyable. While walking beside the ranch and watching the cows and horses, I even spotted wild pigs in the distance. The weather was nice, and the scenery was beautiful. At the end, I was able to take pictures with the sea and mountains in the background, which made for great memories. The contrast between the sky and the grasslands was stunning (just be careful of sunburn!).

I participated in the 1.5-hour morning course. It's about a 45-minute drive from the hotel in Waikoloa, and renting a car is the best option. The instructions are given in English, and they speak slowly and clearly.
First, there is an explanation of the flow of the activity, filling out documents, and safety precautions. After that, they provide a lecture on how to ride a horse, and they stay with you from start to finish.
At first, we walked slowly, and then we were able to pick up speed at good spots, which was really enjoyable. Riding through the grasslands, mountains, and along the sea while taking in the great outdoors was an amazing experience.

Riding along with the guide across the vast grounds during lunch was very refreshing. My horse was Oliver, who had stylish striped hair, and my wife rode Vodka, a chestnut horse; both were great horses.
Along the way, our guide Jessica took some photos for us, and we returned a little after 11 AM, slightly exceeding our scheduled time. It became a wonderful memory.

The only sounds I could hear were the wind. The view consisted of grasslands and the sea below, with cows grazing. It was a sense of relaxation that I can't experience in Japan.

Riding horses in the spacious ranch under the blue sky was very refreshing. The horses were very smart, so even beginners like us could enjoy it. The guides were two young women, and they looked really cool riding the horses. Perhaps due to the altitude or because it was the afternoon, it was a bit chilly with just short sleeves on the day we participated, as the wind was strong.
I thought the meeting point might be a little hard to find unless you pay attention to the directions (please enter through the entrance of 'Kahua Ranch' that appears on the right side after passing mile marker 11). After entering the property from the road, there was a simple door at the entrance to the parking lot that you had to open yourself, which made me hesitate a bit, wondering if I was in the right place. If the cars of those who arrived before me hadn't been parked there, I might have turned back.
The explanation before riding was in English only, but even someone like me, who struggles with English, could somewhat understand the meaning. There might have been many Japanese tourists, as out of ten people, eight were Japanese (three Japanese families and one couple from an English-speaking country).
Since it was a ranch, the terrain wasn't all flat; there were slopes, and we passed right next to where cows were grazing, allowing us to fully enjoy nature.
広々とした牧場と青い空の中での乗馬はとても気持ちがよかったです。馬がとても賢いので、初心者の私達も楽しむことができました。
ガイドは若い女性二人で、馬に乗る姿がとてもかっこよかったです。高所のせいなの午後だったからなのか私達が参加した日は風が強く半袖では少し寒いと感じました。
集合場所は、行き方の補足説明(マイルマーカー「11」を過ぎて右側にでてくる『カフアランチ』の入り口からお入りください。)を意識しておかないとちょっとわかりにくいかな、と思いました。道路から敷地に入り、その先の駐車場の入口には簡易的な扉があり、自分で開けて入るスタイルだったので、「ここでいいのかなあ・・」とちょっと躊躇してしまいました。先着してた方々の車が止まっていなかったら引き返したかも、と思いました。
乗馬前の説明は英語のみですが、苦手な私でも意味はなんとなくわかりました。日本人観光客が多いのかもしれません。この時は10人中8人は日本人(日本人3家族と英語圏のカップルが1組)でした。
牧場なので平らなところばかりではなく、坂道があったり、牛が放牧されている直ぐ側を通ったりと自然を満喫できました。
