We did the Maha'ulepu Scenic Ocean, Mountain, Valley Ride and can't say enough great things about…read morethis experience.  The horses were well cared for and absolutely beautiful.  I was given Jake and my husband rode Commander.  The horses were well trained and a pleasure to ride.  Our guide, Will, was absolutely hilarious and shared some great stories during the ride.  He also took some pictures of us and shared some really interesting information on the horses, plants and history of the area.  We rode through trees, down to the ocean and the views were breathtaking!  Definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

We decided while on the island to book a 2 hour horse riding experience. Neither one of us have…read morebeen on a horse for many years. They provided a good video that went over horse safety and the basics that we had to watch before we arrived. The ranch is absolutely beautiful. We saw a bunch of Nene's which was cool. The ride was really awesome, it's a slow walk but I think 2 hours was the perfect amount of time. I rode John and my husband rode Thor. The sights were absolutely beautiful and the cowboy gave us some good info about the island and history. We really enjoyed our trip.

Who says tourists have nothing to contribute to the local Hawaiian scene? Here's a tip only a local…read morewould know: Healing Horses is your best bet for kids classes and equine education on Kauai. Why? While I'd like to start by noting the incredibly affordable tuition, it all begins with the wonderful people who run this ranch. Healing Horses has a humanitarian philosophy, and frankly, they need a lot of help running the show. The staff (all women, that I've met) are big fans of children, and you'll immediately trust their caretaking. We've had Iris in two camps thus far, one summer, one winter (yes, they offer classes during holiday break), and god willing we return to this island regularly, we'll keep sending her there -- it's honestly her favorite part of each trip. Classes consist of horseback riding, caretaking of the ranch and animals, and various projects, many artistic, held in a trailer -- important during the often rainy Kauai seasons. Kids run the gamut, locals and visitors, and for the city kiddos the programs offer invaluable lessons on ranch life and the work involved to keep things running. And oh, did I mention the cost? Fantastic. Tourists all over this island drop hefty cash to ride horseback, suckers. Here, it's an honest price for a truly memorable ride.

But what really made it special were the instructors - Eileen and Lucy were warm, kind, and confident. They focused on foundational technique and really -explained- things to the girls. We can't wait to return!
