Great Adventure

Reviewed by: Amanda

This was such an amazing tour. Forrest was very knowledgeable of the Hawaiian history and legends of the valley. He knew each local resident by name. It felt very special to get to see such a remote, sacred part of the Big Island.

Reviewed by: Dan&Renee

This tour was worth every penny. The sites and culture we experienced were beyond our expectations. The tour guide was so friendly and her knowledge of each and every site visited and of the Hawaiian culture and history was beyond outstanding. This tour has to be the highlight of our visit to the Big Island. If you want an exciting, exhilarating, beautiful, and culturally immersive experience this tour will meet your every expectation.

Big Island Private Tours - Kilauea Volcano & Mauna Kea Stargazing with Dinner

Long but amazing day

Reviewed by: Jim

We really enjoyed our full day tour filled with waterfalls, visiting volcanoes national park and capping it off with a stargazing tour at the end. Our guide was good but would have liked him to relate more of his stories to our grandaughter. When we did the stargazing, he was great. You could tell this was his passion.

Wish we did it when we arrived

Reviewed by: Gila

It was such a great experience! Our tour guide was AMAZING! So personable and knowledgeable. He knew sooo much history. I don’t think there was a question asked he couldn’t answer at all. My favorite stops were the lava tube and volcano summit visits. Incredible views. My wife and I were saying we should’ve done this when we first arrived instead of at the end of our trip. Sooo much great information. Learning about how coffee was made was also great! Keep it up!

We had a great time on the shuttle. Our driver, Forest was fun, professional and had so much to share about the area and island. We got to go down to some beautiful spots and get out to take pictures. It was amazing. I highly recommend you take this tour. The windows are out so you don't feel closed in. It is a long way down and up so think long and hard about hiking it. We are so glad we choose to Book this tour-- You will be happy you did! It was an amazing experience.

Best Horseback Riding Experience so far

Reviewed by: Alina X.

My sisters and I all enjoyed this horseback riding and waterfall tour. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and nice. He gave us clear riding instructions and an interesting introduction about the valley and the plants. The waterfall and the view of the whole valley are awesome. We got the chance to taste the oranges picked from the valley. The horse I was riding kept eating or drinking while walking on the road or in the creek and was still under control. Thanks to the tour guide for helping us take some nice pictures. Overall, this is my best horseback riding so far.

Wonderful trek through Waipio Valley. They staff was extremely attentive and reachable throughout the ride. Beautiful surroundings and luxury delivery down the valley to the beautiful horses. I am a very inexperienced rider and I felt very comfortable from the drive down the steep terrain to leading my horse on the trail. My horse was very responsive and this made taking in the scenery a easy, enjoyable and unforgettable experience! Simba was a great horse!

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

I felt refreshed. 心が洗われた。

Reviewed by: Emi oc

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tour required wearing masks, but it was fine to take them off while horseback riding. There were guides in front and behind us, so we could hear explanations even from the back. When a car came, we guided the horses to the side of the road, and it was quite well done. We also got to let the horses drink water from a stream, which made it feel like we were taking care of them, and it was a lot of fun. The wonderful scenery of Waipi'o Valley has become an unforgettable memory.

コロナ禍もありマスク着用でのツアーとなりましたが乗馬時にはマスクを外して大丈夫でした。ガイドさんが前後に1人ずつ付いてくれて後ろの方でも説明を聞くことが出来ました。途中で車が来た時には道の端に馬を誘導するのですが結構上手に出来たり小川でお水を飲ませてあげたりとちょっとお世話してる感もあって楽しかったです。ワイピオキャニオンの素晴らしい景色は忘れられないものとなりました。

Waipio Valley First-timers

Reviewed by: Sue

Didn’t have any expectation beyond seeing incredible scenery in our visit to Waipio Valley. We were not disappointed with the views and were totally surprised with the stories told by an Hawaiian youth resident of the valley of how the valley was occupied and its history through the centuries. We’re so glad we chose this tour while visiting the big island. We were three generations traveling and our youngest - a 3 year old - managed quite well. Anyone interested in this tour should be aware that the four wheel drive vehicle will travel down and up the 1300 feet steep drop into and out of the valley. Not for the faint hearted although a person can easily close their eyes to ensure they will not miss this historical and sacred valley.

Ultimate Hawaii Circle Island Sightseeing, Kilauea Volcano & Waterfall Tour

Worthwhile tour

Reviewed by: Sophia

Pros: It was worthwhile to do this tour to see the entire Big Island all in one day, without having to do any driving. Adam was very informative and shared many Hawaiian mythical stories along the way. Enjoyed the extra stops at the bakery for Malasadas, the driver got us all plain ones, and the fruit stand we stopped at, at the end.

Cons: many errors due to the fact that Veltra books the tour, through the Hawaii Activities, but they don’t run the tour. So the lunch options were not the options listed when we booked. They called to clarify the meals for our group and still got the lunches completely wrong. No chicken on the salads, not enough sandwiches and too many plain veggie salads. Also, we booked a private tour. We booked a private tour. The website said private tour up to 10, we had 9, so we were under the impression we would be the only group on the tour. This was not the case! There was a group of three in the van when it arrived to pick us up. And the other group had much better looking lunches than ours for some reason. Another disappointing thing was that it was rainy and cold for the volcano portion of the tour. Our tour guide informed us that rainy weather is very very common at the volcano park and near Hilo. We were all dressed for warm weather and we were all freezing for a large part of the tour. Our van had 6 rain jackets, but 12 passengers. It would have been very helpful if the person that called to confirm the tour would have told us there is a chance it might be rainy. One last thing, we accidentally left some candy purchases on the tour bus, we called the company, but have not heard back about retrieving these purchases.

The Best of the Valley

Reviewed by: Dee & Jake

I’ve taken this tour before and knew my family from the mainland would enjoy it as much as I did. They LOVED the tour from the very minute they met our guides, Chico and Tracy. We got the best of everything that day: weather, horses, views, guides and Hawaiian experience. We appreciated the high spirited personalities and the great knowledge Chico and Tracy, valley residents themselves, shared with us of life in the Valley of the Kings from times past to the life of today’s Hawaiian families. I don’t want to give any more details so it will be your own special experience. I guarantee you’ll have FUN and if you don’t, well then, you just don’t know how to have fun!

Memorable horseback riding in a uniquely Hawaiian setting

Reviewed by: tweist

We greatly enjoyed our morning horse ride in the Waipio Valley. Our guides are local residents of the valley who are very proud of the history and the culture. The horses were calm and very sure footed. The lack of in depth introductions about the history and culture of the valley and the unpredictable weather in the valley were largely compensated by the hospitality of the guides, the almost mystic atmosphere of the majestic valley, and arrays of exotic flora of the fertile valley floor. I wish the black sand beach was part of the tour. I might be asking too much but horse riding on the black sand beach could be the highlight of a perfect tour!
