We had a nice ride and the horses were matched up with our weight, age, and skill level as stated. This was my third time riding in 20 years and I went as a beginner and did well. I was concerned that I was a pre-pre-pre beginner. Yet I survived and have 3 nice pictures and some good memories of the trail. We had 2 tour guides and my regret is that I wished I'd given more beside $10 for a tip since they were watching my back so to speak :)

My 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.

We had a wonderful time at Mendes Ranch. The staff was extremely curtious and friendly. The guides were friendly, funny and knowledable!! My 8 & 10 year old boys had a fantastic time; we will not hesitate returning to Mendes Ranch on our next visit to Maui!!

My Mom and I had never been on horses before this trip. Our guide Rocky was fantastic. He was very informative about the land, the island and wonderful little details about everything. I would go back to Mendez again and again. All the guides took their time to make sure the horses were matched up perfectly with the riders. You get a little dirty when it's too dry but it's so worth it when you get to see so much of the island. Pictures to follow.

Had a great time. Staff were very friendly and helpfull. It had been a large number of years since I had been on a horse, after 5 minutes I was loving it. They took care and time with those less experienced. Matched the horse to the person's ability.

This was the best activity, by far we experianced on our trip to Maui.
The staff was friendly, helpful and gracious. We learned alot just by listening to our guide. The Ranch was beautiful. The ride was even more than I expected. We have gone hors back riding in other places, but this trip was more memorable thean ever, for my daughter. The horse
