2-Hour Horseback Riding Tour at Circle M Ranch - Mountain Trail with Ocean Views
Overall Rating
4.76
Nice tour with beautiful views! Great for beginners.
Reviewed by: Eziel, 2021/09/05Docking a star due to starting over an hour late, as well as getting a horse that was older and clearly needed to rest during the tour (other horses were just fine).
Otherwise, the experience was really nice and the views were amazing. Great for beginners, more experienced riders may not enjoy as much (they probably wouldn't book this).
Kinda wish they allowed us to trot/gallop a little.
Great for family and friends!

Beautiful views
Reviewed by: First Timers, 2014/12/14The views during the ride were fantastic, but the ride itself wasn't extraordinary. I would recommend the BBQ lunch though. It was a very good lunch.

Good Staff, Fun Event
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2012/07/28Overall the event was fun. The staff was friendly and helpful. However, the trail was not the easiest of rides and the equipment could be updated. For example, my rein broke in the middle of the ride. Other than that, it was a great experience.

A horse ride off my bucket list
Reviewed by: two inexperienced riders, 2012/01/13I chose this activity for its uniqueness. You rode a horse high up to the mountain top and were given photo options using your own camera. You were matched to a horse that suited your riding experience. The riding was either up a mountain or down a mountain. Very little on the flat lie. Once to the bottom, the view of the ocean was fantastic. Again, photo options were great. The staff was most obliging. My only concern was that the
one guide's horse and the horse I was given did not get along. Everytime the guide came to check on me, my horse would fold its ears back, tremble and prepare to bolt and often broke into a canter. It was a very unnerving feeling for a beginner rider. There was only two times available to canter for the experienced riders and it was only going uphill for a short stretch. Our group had three such riders.
If you are out for fantastic views, great photo ops, then this is the ride for you.
If you are out for a lovely ride then forget this outing.

Excellent Guide, views, & BBQ
Reviewed by: Patrick & Jessica Nygaard, 2010/03/17Our guide "Frenchie" was very funny, entertaining, and courteous. He certainly made the 2 hour horseback ride enjoyable. We were taken to some locations that offered amazing views of both the mountains and the ocean. In addition, the BBQ lunch that was provided was excellent as well. Overall, it was a very good experience, and one that we would recommend to others.

Outstanding Experience
Reviewed by: Stu, 2008/08/16My wife,daughter and I spent 10 days on Maui.The highlight was going on this horseback ride.Trails with breathtaking views, a well informed and friendly staff.Our guides Frenchy and Steve made this very enjoyable. The staff was very good in joining riders experience to the right horse. Being beginners, we were a bit nervous at first.Our guides put us right at ease and that made for a much more enjoyable ride. I would highly recommend this activity.
