They also provide a small bag for your belongings that hooks onto the saddle, cold water bottles, and sunscreen prior to the ride. They have an area with old cowboy boots and hats that you can borrow for the ride too! During the ride, my horse occasionally got side tracked and pulled away to sneak a few bites of grass and tree leaves (don't blame him whatsoever for wanting to snack!), but Don was really patient and always helped me with redirecting him. As a whole, the horses were all well trained and knew the route, which made for a comfortable ride. The views were unreal and Don was very knowledgeable on paniolo history. They also have a great shop with lots of reasonably priced items that are good quality. Would 100% come back for another horseback ride with them the next time I return to Maui. Thanks Circle M!

As a new rider, it can intimidating but Don, Chase, Bailee, Trina made the experience. They made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way.

You can tell the horses are well cared for and the team genuinely loves what they do. This is a must do in Maui!

The horses are well trained and super chill, and I felt comfortable very quickly. Our guide, Lewis (I hope I remembered his name correctly--the 18-year-old bull rider!), was a joy. He kept an eye on all of us, told some fun stories along the way, and made sure the ride moved at a comfortable pace. You can tell the ranch is a great environment for the animals, and the views are amazing. We were there on a Monday, so we weren't able to try a Bully Burger, but I'm sure they're delicious too! I would absolutely recommend this ride for both experienced and beginning riders.

Biggest downfall, all the hiking. It was straight up the mountain on this goat trail. Footing could be dangerous If you don't have good shoes, balance and pay attention. They give you a water bottle full to keep ( however not in the least bit cold). If you aren't in att least half way decent shape this adventure probably is not for you. It is a lot of physical work. Be prepared to sweat and breathe hard and carry yourself and that 10 pound trolley up the dang mountain with very little to no shade. The guys doing the actual Zipping with us were awesome! Fun and friendly! The guy at the start, when you check in and pay... let's just say he's a grump. Maybe he had a bad day, but we found his to be grumpy and just honestly rude. It's like he hates his job. Would Recommend and go again for sure!

THE GOODS: Beef Jerky - $10.95 A shiny, gold bag caught my eye in the stack of snacks at my mom's house. What differentiates this 30 oz. package of jerky from the rest of the world, IMO, is the size of their jerky. You're usually treated to thin slices of chewy meat or even razor thin crisps. Not here. Actual filets of steak are marinated, dried and sliced into thick, tender strips of jerky goodness, savory and sweet with a hint of pepper. I mean, just take a look at my photo! Who does that?! Highly recommended. OVERALL: No antibiotics, added hormones, MSG, artificial ingredients or preservatives.

You can tell he truly loves nature, and his passion made the experience even more special. What really stood out was how attentive and considerate he was. Our hotel didn't have towels for us, so Enrique went out of his way to stop by his station and grab some before the hike. That small gesture meant a lot and showed how much he cares about his guests. Throughout the day, he made sure everyone was safe, comfortable, and having a great time. Seeing several beautiful waterfalls with such a thoughtful guide made it a day we won't forget.

She has a big heart and a crazy love for this island. We've lived on Maui for a couple years and she taught us some cool stuff that we didn't know. We hopped in her big van and had a fun tour to: -Ocean Vodka -Surfing Goat Dairy -Ali'i Lavander Farm -Ulupalaku Ranch + Maui wine And along the way she handed out fresh banana bread (that SHE baked!) and cold bottles of water (say what? So thoughtful!) As we drove, she would point out things like: the kinds of trees we were seeing, the history of this or that, how things had changed over the years... Interesting things that kept the conversation flowing. Her van has a microphone for her to use so it's great for people who sit in the back. We could hear everything she was saying. She made sure to open doors for guests and make sure the temperature inside the van was okay for everyone. There are different tours to choose from to hone in on where you want to go and what you want to see. She really knows her stuff and made us smile and laugh with her bubbly personality and energy. She caters to her guests and made us feel like her 'ohana. Thank you so much Marilyn! We had so much fun.

As soon as Marilyn greeted me at the pick up, I knew I was in for a real treat. She has this magnetic energy and passion. She knows how to connect with people and make them feel comfortable. I was traveling alone and joined a group of others wonderful tourists that were part of the tour. Marilyn and Robbie were well versed in their knowledge of the history of the culture, agriculture and plants. The tour included stops at the lovely Lavender garden, Maui winery, and the Surfing Goat Dairy. Their timing was spot. One of the highlights of the tour was the lunch. It was in a lovely park, tucked away in a hillside, overlooking Maui, It was a perfect day. The real treat was when Marilyn pulled out her Ukulele and started singing lovely songs - one of which was "Somewhere over the rainbow". It was delightful. The tour ended with the other tourists departing at the airport. This was not just an ordinary curbside drop-off. Marilyn actually accompanied them to the check in counter and helped them get their bags through. This is not something that an ordinary tour company would do. I remained in the van and chatted with the delightful Robbie. I cannot thank Maui Country Farm Tours for such a memorable experience. It was truly one of the highlights of my trip, and I could not have done the trip alone. Marilyn has contacts and knows the inside scoop on how these various businesses operate. Please consider her tour as an option for you to see the back country of beautiful Maui. You will thank yourself and you will make a friend or two.
