About this experience

Camel Riding in Waimea is a guided camel trek on the Big Island of Hawaii, located on the rolling ranchlands of Waimea (Kamuela). Riders travel atop gentle camels through pasture and eucalyptus groves, with views toward Mauna Kea and the Kohala Mountains. The tour offers a slow-paced, family-friendly way to see the upcountry landscape.
