Ride a guided tour of Waipio On Horseback Ranch, experience a traditional Ahupua’a (Mauka Makai). Horseback through a large coconut orchard, banana groves, and fishponds. We go alongside the historic Hamakua ditch and up into pasture blooming with purple flowers, guava and iron woods. There are baby sheep, horses, and calf. See native animals-wild boar, Hawaiian Ducks, donkeys, etc. Exotic fruits Kuini, such as Abiu, Salak, Mardrono, pitomba, Talisia, and Durio. Perhaps even sample those grown on the property. See the spectacular views, and landscapes, from fertile gardens to sweeping grasslands, and tree canopies. Learn Hawaiian culture and customs. Our guides are knowledgeable on the history of this Hawaiian Ahupa'a, a large socioeconomic, geologic, and climatic subdivision of land. Extending from the mountains to the sea with multiple water sheds. Each Ahupa'a provides wood for shelter and food like fish or taro. Unforgettable Ocean and Mountain Views

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this horseback riding experience?

A: Yes, riders need to be at least 7 years old to join the tour. If you have younger kids, it might be good to check with the provider for any alternatives or special accommodations. Just make sure everyone is comfortable on a horse!

Q: What should we wear for the horseback riding tour?

A: Definitely wear long pants and closed-toe shoes. The terrain can get a bit rough, and you want to be comfortable. Also, a hat and sunscreen are a must since you'll be out in the sun a lot. Don't forget to bring a light jacket, just in case it gets breezy up in the hills!

Q: What happens if it rains on the day of the tour? Can we reschedule?

A: If it rains, they do usually offer to reschedule, but it's best to call them directly to confirm their specific policy. The horses do need to stay safe, so they won’t ride if conditions are too bad. Just keep an eye on the weather and plan ahead!

Anyone done the Waipi’o horseback ride? Thinking of gifting this!

I’m looking to get my sister something special for her birthday, and this Waipi’o on Horseback tour seems amazing! I love that you get to see native animals and sample tropical fruits while riding. Has anyone done it? What was your favorite part? Any tips?

Thinking of Waipi’o on Horseback for a family trip!

We’re planning a family vacation to Hawaii and I want to book this horseback experience for us. Can anyone share how challenging the ride is? I’ve got my parents with me, and they’re not super experienced riders.
