Hawaii Horseback Riding Tour with Waterfall Swim at Umauma Falls

Loved the ride!

Reviewed by: Peter

Great staff, gentle horses, and a fun adventure. We had our 9 year old granddaughter who had never ridden but they went out of their way to make sure she was comfortable and with a horse that she could ride safely.
I have lots of riding experience and was able to enjoy the ride as well; they shared much information about the plants and animals and Hawaiian history. Btw, the swim at the half way point was very refreshing.

Big Island Highlights Tour - Volcano, Waterfall, Black Sand Beach, Coffee & Wine

Best tour ever!

Reviewed by: KellyB

Our driver was mike and he was awesome! The bus was a luxury bus with limited passengers. Mike was funny and personable and treated us like royalty. Set us up for breakfast and lunch, provided snacks and drinks, cold cloths and hot cloths when needed. Made sure we all got our Portuguese donuts without having to wait in line. Just all around awesome! The back sand beach and the crater on the volcanoes were amazing as well as walking through the lava tube. I 100 percent recommend this tour to anyone

I would definitely go again.

mahalo melissa, sorry about the late arrivals, we apologize once in a while it does happen road work, detours and lost guests. yes proper attire for ride recommeded, dress and heels oh my goodness that is silly, it is in confirmation as well on what to wear. yes horses are definitely well cared for, very spoiled, they work hard, so we need to love them a little more extra they have their own personality and we love them too.. guides are great and have been in the family for over 30 years. weather is so unpredictable it is a surprise to us on the daily. yes the rain is the best blessing and cools us down. the best rides are the sometimes light rain.. thank you for sending a sweet review, we look forward for you to joining with us again and hope you get to spend more time at the waterfall next time.. mahalo nui! wailea horseback adventure..

Excellent ATTV Tour

Reviewed by: Garrett

I would highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to do a fun and exciting ATV tour of the Waipio Valley. The tour guides were excellent. They took all the time to explain everything about the 750 acre property, the Waipio Valley, the ocean, the animals, etc. The ATV's were in great working order. We had no issues at all with them. The guides kept us safe at all times but we had a lot of fun!

If you are looking for a tour to give you a quick peak at some really fun spots with a ton of information this is the tour to take. Thia is phenomenal and gives you a ton of extra information like her favorite food spots, Beach spots, or any kind of recommendation you could be thinking of.

Big Island Highlights Tour - Volcano, Waterfall, Black Sand Beach, Coffee & Wine

MUST do for Big Island Hawaii!

Reviewed by: J Slayton

This is a MUST do if you're going to the Big Island Hawaii. It was really a great way to see a lot of the islands best highlights. Even my husband loved it, who really doesn't like doing "tours" with groups / crowds and doing one ALL day long at that (likes his relaxation time on vacation). Our guide was fantastic, he gave us so much good information about the island, it's history, places, and everything in between. He was super attentive and made things fun as well. We would highly recommend this tour and specifically this company for a wonderful trip on the Big Island.

キラウエア火山 ヘリコプター遊覧 水~土曜日10:30限定で日本語パイロットのリクエスト可能<フライト100分/英語パイロット/ワイコロアヘリポート>

日本人パイロットに日本人ファミリーのみのフライトでした。

Reviewed by: angel39

ホテルから飛行場の場所は少し車で走りました。飛行場の待合ロビーは混雑しており、注意していないと乗るべきヘリ案内を聞き逃しそうです。
フライト中は、日本人だけで英語と日本語のバイリンガルの説明ではなかったので、情報量も十分で充実したものとなりました。英語と日本語の説明だと疲れるので、とてもラッキーでした。コース、フライト時間も申し分なく、噴火しているハワイ島を堪能しました。帰りのタクシーまでの時間が少なく、フライト映像のUSBが書き上がらず、ハラハラしましたが。

My husband and I loved our ride at Waimea. Our guides Jamie and Julie were fun and made my husband (who was a first time rider) very comfortable on his horse. Jamie shared so much of his knowledge of the island with us while we were riding to and from the waterfall for which we were very grateful. The swim at the waterfall was gorgeous and refreshing. A wonderful experience overall and absolutely worth it! Highly recommend!

Most Enjoyable Way to Experience the Island.

Reviewed by: Kerry Gaj

This tour is excellent. A great option for families and adventurous travelers looking to see it all in one day. From local coffee to black sand beaches to wineries to lava flows to lava tunnels to a charming sunset. The tour guys were knowledgeable and so kind and a accommodating. Shared their local stories and made sure all were comfortable. If you are looking to explore the island and don’t have a lot of time — this is the tour for you. If you want to see everything and get tips on where to go from some locals — this is the tour for you. Highly recommend 10/10.

This tour was perfectly laid out. We covered a lot of territory, but it all went smoothly. The tour included breakfast and lunch, which were both excellent. Loved seeing a coffee plantation, winery, Black San Beach with turtles, the volcano crater, and waterfalls.

They went above and beyond to make the to her accessible for my daughter who has cerebral palsy and challenges walking.

Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option

Nice ride but watch the front seat upgrade.

Reviewed by: Mike

No doubt the ride itself was amazing! We were able to see a ton of the Big Island and our pilot was great.

However, the interaction at the desk was a little shady. When we arrived we had four in our party plus another passenger who was also assigned to our group. As we checked in the receptionist asked if we wanted to upgrade as the two front seats were still available. First off, that seems strange since there are only four seats across the back - obviously someone in a group of five would need a front seat. The problem came when one in my group wanted to upgrade to the front. They charged the full amount for both front seats. Then the receptionist pulled the single passenger to the side, giving her a "free" upgrade to the other front seat... great for her! If it would have been explained that the full price for both seats would be charged then another from my group would have taken the other front rather than give it away. I understand they have to distribute weight, etc. but the way it was handled was less than desirable. It's unfortunate that a shady sales experience soured an otherwise great day.
