I got to bond with my horse "Gambler" he was nice and made my ride smooth even on the down and uphill's he was amazing. The views are amazing and we even saw whales out in the water. I do recommend this adventure you wont be disappointed.

Maui views on horseback. - Layla, Chase and Creighton were great. They took the time to explain things to us. My 2 friends had little experience with horses and had a great time. The beautiful views and the experience were wonderful.

Slow and steady - It is for all levels. The ranchers help you with everything. You do go down a steep trail and back up again on the horse. The ride wasn’t that long but it was a good taste of horseback riding.

Best horseback riding in Maui - Went on this ride two years ago and when we came back to Maui in 2025 my husband and I needed to do it again.its the only reason we came back to Maui. The views are amazing nothing like it anyplace else. The cowboys are awesome and just so full of knowledge. They make you feel comfortable from the beginning I will recommend this ride to anyone going to Maui. Thank you all again for the the amazing memories J Rogers

Great time, great people - The staff were very nice! The horses were great! The views were amazing! Most of the riders were couples, I was by myself. They matched the horses based on your experience. There were some first time riders, so don’t be intimidated. Definitely recommend!

Highly recommended trail ride - Great trail ride with amazing views. Our guides were awesome and made everyone feel at ease from the experienced riders all the way down to a first timer. Highly recommended. Our guides also took great group photos for us and were filled with so much information about the origins of the Hawaiian cowboys.

Loved everything about Circle M Ranch! - We had an amazing time. The staff, the paniolos, and the horses were awesome. Some beautiful views along the trail of this great property. We had to reschedule due to weather, and Teri could not have been nicer or more professional, as we received a text 75 minutes prior, so we didn’t travel all the way to the Ranch, and we were easily rescheduled for the next day. My advise with an Hawaiian vacation is to not over book yourselves and stay flexible. Aloha!
