Not worth the price

2.00Misleading description. No cantering - horses nor terrain have capability. You spend the entire time in the sun very slowing climbing or descending unstable and steep hills. $400 for 2 people is absolutely not worth the price for the same ocean view you get when driving or bike riding around the island.
Beautiful horses in great...

5.00Incredible trail rides along the coast of Maui with friendly, advanced trained cowboys. Chase and Bailey were wonderful and the horses were well trained- including the "snacker", Cloud-9. Highly recommend. We had an amazing time at this farm and would do it again!
Have fun on the trail

5.00What a fun time we had. My wife and I are older (69 years young) and she has balance issues but had no difficulty at all on our ride. The staff is friendly and we appreciated the riding tutorial before getting started. Beautiful views for sure. Note to anyone going: the trail was dusty and since you ride single file, you are always following a horse. So, wear a mask or if you're more like Kevin Costner, wear a bandana (lol). Also, your light-colored shoes and pants/shorts will get dirty.

5.00We had a wonderful experience at Circl M Ranch on the afternoon excursion. Bailey was a great guide! Bailey made sure we were good throughout the ride, took pictures, gave us some history on the Ranch and of Hawaii, and just made the whole experience amazing. Travis was also a guide on the trail and made sure my kids were safe and were doing ok on th me trail.
