We had a great time with Richard & Ki. They were fun and informative. They made sure to engage with everyone in our group and really create a personal experience. The ride itself was amazing, the horses are obviously well cared for. Spirited animals ready for some fun! We even had an opportunity to kick up the pace towards the end, for those who felt comfortable. Not at all the usual glue factory escapees that I’ve seen in other places. The owner obviously cares about her herd. We started in the hills and went all the way down to the water. We had multiple opportunities for group pictures. Richard is a good photographer & knows the stops with beautiful backdrops to make great photos. I would highly recommend this trip to others. Thank you.

The horseback riding was amazing. The horses (+ the other animals roaming around) were well taken care of & handled amazingly well - especially with different degrees of riding experience. The guides (Kye & Sierra) were amazing, friendly & knowledgeable. And amazing views!

I travelled with a large party (7 - 4 adults and 3 children) and Maui Mountain Activities was wonderfully helpful and accommodating for us (thank you so much Brandy). My group and I had a wonderful time on trail. Our guides, Kai and Cole, were welcoming and made us feel safe on horseback - our group was all beginning level riders. The horses were beautiful and well cared for. Each had their own personality and a lot of effort and care was put into matching each horse to the rider. With each step of the day we got clear and easy to follow instructions that allowed us to be comfortable in the experience - from the initial meeting place, driving up to the stables, the ride itself, and then driving from the stables back to the road. We would absolutely do this ride again in the future (in fact, for a few of us this was our second time already). Thank you so much again to Maui Mountain Activities and I cannot recommend this activity highly enough!

We had a great time on the horseback tour. Cole and Jade were great guides. Gave good safety overview and tips on how to handle the horses. The horses were all well behaved. Amazing to experience how well they handle hills. The tour went through backcountry hills and had some great vistas. It was a little windy and dusty up there. We had a Hawaiian morning shower and the operator had ponchos for us to wear. Which was great for the 10 minutes it showered. They also had drinks you can pack in your saddle bag. Overall great experience and neat way to see the island.
