We loved our guides
Reviewed by: Hunter
Keone we think and Jay were wonderful guides and added greatly to the beautiful experience of riding in Waipio Valley. Their friendlyness and helpfullness really made the ride from great to an amazing experience. It was fun to ride through water and learn about the valley. I would recommend it to anyone interested in horseback riding. The horses were easy to ride but also had some personality which is always fun and the guides did a good job of teaching the basics and what to do to stay safe.

Waipio Valley Wagon Tour & Big Island Tropical Waterfalls Adventure [Closed]
Awesome scenery, great guide!
Reviewed by: Randy and Cyndi
This very pleasant tour gave us a unique look at some awesome scenery that is hidden away deep in the Waipio Valley. The wagon was surprisingly comfortable, and the mules were photogenic! Even though it rained quite a bit, we didn't get very wet. Our guide was a resident of the valley himself, and his family had lived there for several generations. He was both entertaining and informative. Don't miss this opportunity to see a piece of genuine Hawaii up close!

See the real Hawaii
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
This trip is recommended if you can't hike into Waipio or ride on horseback to see. We had a family with two small children visiting, so this was a perfect way for our guests to see and understand some of Hawaii -- botanically, geologically, culturally -- authentically. This trip is for people who want to get off of the beaten path and are genuinely interested in hearing native Hawaiians discuss their culture and their land.

A Lot of fun & Beautiful views
Reviewed by: Bill
While the shear beauty of the valley is worth the trip out to Waipio, our guide made the day a special one. He was funny, knowledgeable and a pretty good photographer. We brought home some great memories and the pictures to keep them fresh. The ride was pretty tame, which was fine for us. The horses were gentle and the pace was leisurely and relaxing.

Waipio Valley Wagon Tour & Big Island Tropical Waterfalls Adventure [Closed]
Wagon ride could be a little longer
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
For the money we payed there should have been less time getting the mule ready when we got to the bottom they should of been ready to go. The wagon trip was very informative but for the money we paid it wasn't long enough. The trip down the hill was very good. Over all I liked the whole experience. Just needed the wagon part to be longer.

Expected more
Reviewed by: Cali Girl
After reading about how wonderful the Waipio Valley Ride was, I was excited to go. I have shown horses for over 20 years and know my way around a horse. When we arrived at the stables, and, yes, the road into the valley was an experience to be had, I was very disappointed in the quality of the horses. I over heard one worker state that most of the horses were lame.
The ride itself was peaceful and the scenery was beautiful. The guide took us on public roads and down a short stream; the actual ride was about 1 1/2 hours long. My horse was pleasant to ride and knew his job.
The guides were okay but spent a great deal of time talking with locals or riding off on their own. Several times very inexperienced riders were left by themselves and seemed very uncomfortable; I would not be surprised if their experience was not a good one. I am glad nothing bad happened but it easily could have.
I would do this activity again but probably with another operator.

Horse back riding
Reviewed by: al
It was fun and the staff was great! I rate an overall 5 star but I think the horse back route could be a little more interesting if we had gone in a circle instead of taking the left route then turn back the same way and then take the right route and then turn back to get back and that would complete the journey. But don't get me wrong, the ride was exciting and very entertaining!

Great fun - very different from other Hawaiian activities. However, be aware that they do not go over to the beach. We all thought it was great fun - this is not for the "high end shoppers club" - this is for those that want to experience the "real Hawaii"!

Waipio Valley Ride
Reviewed by: LLoyd & Jan Kelley
We thoroughly enjoyed this activity. The ride down and up from the Valley was challenging but we had an experienced driver who navigated the road expertly. Both of our guides grew up in Waipio Valley so they were well prepared to introduce us to its history and special characteristics. With a few simple instructions we were able to ride the horses along the valley trails and felt like we actually learned a bit about riding horses. The valley was beautiful and the ride was quite enjoyable. We throughly recommend this adventure.

The best horseback ride ever!!
Reviewed by: Robin
This ride was so much fun! The staff was excellent and made the experience even better. Getting to ride in an area with streams, rivers and taro fields was such a meaningful experience for me. The horses were very well mannered and we are not great riders. I would recommend this adventure to anyone going to the Big Island.

The horses are very user friendly. You get to cross numerous streams, see water falls, and ride along jungly trails. The guides were great. They gave a nice riding lesson, took pictures for us, and kept us laughing with their humor. The trip ended with some wild fruit tasting and a scenic drive out of Waipio Valley.
A very good time.

MY WIFE, DAUGHTER, AND MYSELF TOOK THIS RIDE IN MID-APRIL '08. EVERYTHING WAS JUST LIKE IT WAS DESCRIBED. THE DRIVE IN AND OUT OF THE VALLEY WAS A TRIP IN ITSELF. THE TWO GUYS THAT LED THE TOUR WERE A BLAST! HELPFUL, CONSIDERATE, AND FUN. THE RIDE ITSELF WAS SO NICE SINCE IT WASN'T ENDLESS TIME IN THE BLAZING SUN. MOSTLY CROSSING STREAMS AND RIDING UNDER JUNGLE CANOPY. EVERYONE IN TOUR WAS ENJOYING THEIRSELVES, FROM NOVICE TO EXPERIENCED. DURATION OF RIDE WAS JUST RIGHT. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TRIP TO ANYONE. IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST TIMES OF OUR TRIP. GREAT FUN VALUE FOR DOLLAR. WE'LL DO AGAIN ON OUR NEXT TRIP.

Wagon tour
Reviewed by: Tony Pratt
This last August 2007 our family had one of the best times on this wagon ride. Our girls 4, and 8 had the best time and my dad of 80 and mom of 78 said this was the highlight of the whole vacation. The ride is bumpy at times but the wagon has nice padded seats and the wagon has springs on it to make it a better ride. On our trip our guide was great she told us all about the history of the valley, we sucked the nector out of some of the flowers seen wild horses crossed two small streams and seen how the locals still live off the land today in the valley. On out trip the Island was having a drought and all but one waterfall was flowing but dont let this stop you from taking this trip its still beautiful and fun so make sure you book this trip its worth it, we booked afternoon trip and loved it.

This is a "must do" alternative for family members that cannot do the horseback ride into the valley. I took my 4-year-old on the ride while the rest of the family did the horseback tour. You see all of the same sights and the guides are very knowledgable. The mules are a bit stubborn. But the real star is the valley - one of the most unique and beautiful places in the world.

very scenic tour
Reviewed by: SFBayArea
The horseback ride through the Waipio Valley was definitely very scenic. It's a beautiful area. My horse was a little temperamental, preferring to stop and chew on plants by the wayside every few feet. The guides were good with the horses but didn't provide much background or cultural information about the valley and its people. Overall, it's a great way to explore this beautiful, unique valley.

ワイピオ渓谷 ワゴンツアー 小さなお子様から年配の方もゆったり楽しめる ＜午前・午後／英語ガイド／貸切あり＞
とても楽しかったです。
Reviewed by: 匿名希望
家族で参加しました。
現地まではレンタカーで行きましたが、集合場所へもそれほど迷わず到着することができました。
私たちがこのアクティビティに参加したのは土曜日だっために、集合場所のお店は閉まっていましたが、ガイドの方が裏のトイレを開けてくれました。2時間ほどのアクティビティですが、トイレを済ませておくといいかもしれません。
また、当たり前ですが、ジャングルのような中を回るため、蚊がたくさんいました。他の人の書き込みを読んでいたので、虫よけを持って行ったのがよかったです。
ガイドはすべて英語です。こちらの質問に答えてくれたり、ジョークを織り交ぜて話してくれたり、とてもたのしかったです。英語がわかればとても楽しいツアーになると思います。渓谷の中はいろいろな植物があるので、その植物などについて話が伺えるのはとても貴重でした。
ワゴンが川を渡るときはとても興奮しました。
本当に楽しかったです。また機会があれば、参加したいです。

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
散歩気分でした
Reviewed by: 匿名希望
10月16日の午前中に参加しました。
天気も良く、のんびりと馬の背にゆられて渓谷を散策してきました。
英語のみ、ということで心配でしたが身振り手振りで説明してくれたので問題なかったです。
（馬の乗り方より、チェックインのほうが少し英語が必要でした。基本的にバウチャーを渡すだけで大丈夫ですが「トイレに行っといて」と「9：30に出発するからそこらへんにいて」と言われたような気がします。）
ちなみに集合場所のお店はとてもおしゃれなお店で
街中で売っていないようなすてきなものがたくさんおいてありました。（デザイナーの作品とかがたくさんありました。）
四駆で急こう配の坂を降りると静かな渓谷の中になります。
そこから馬に乗りましたが、はじめは緊張してガチガチだったものの5分もすればすっかり調子づいてきて、馬のお腹が水につかる位の川の中を歩いたり、のんびり景色をながめたりして楽しむことができました。
英語なので上手な意思疎通はできませんでしたが、それでも途中果物の説明をしてくれたり、ビューポイントで写真をとってくれたりとガイドの方も陽気で親切にしてくださりよかったと思います。
持ち物はカメラだけで十分だと思います。
馬に乗っているときは水を飲む余裕はあまりないですので。
私はサングラスも不要でした。ほどよく木陰がありましたので。
