A friend and I recently did a trip out to Mendes Ranch to check out there new ATV Tour. I've done the horseback ride before many times and have always liked the authentic feel of the ranch. The weather out there can be pretty hit or miss but we got lucky with a nice day. It was a bit dusty... More

Our son and his family took a trail ride at the Mendes Ranch while I enjoyed reading on the deck. They said it was the best they had ever been on and they wanted me to write a review. Our granddaughters, age 13, 11, and 6 went in the same group as their mother. The guide told the 6-year-old that... More

Spent a beautiful and fun day at Mendes. The location is simply not to be believed. You will get what you expect from the ranch horses and I found them to be docile, well-trained and compliant. The guides were great, lots of focus on safety and they did a good job of matching horses to skill sets and then keeping... More

Not being a horserider I didn't know what to expect regarding necessary technique and stamina so I chose the shortest ride (1.5hrs). The whole trip was fabulous from start to finish, the staff are very nice and friendly, and our guide, Trevor, was knowledgable and funny. My horse was easy to control and very gentle. The Mendes Ranch is located... More

Have been the Medes Ranch twice, and both experiences were outstanding! Rocky, Butch & Freddy never disappoint! We had this trio the first time and again requested them because of their humor and fun nature. They were so attentive to all of us, ensuring we were comfortable, having fun and safe. They were also so accommodating with my fanaticism of... More

This was so much fun. The horses were so gentle and the guides were very well informed as well as attentive to make sure everyone was comfortable on their horses, from beginner riders to the more experienced. The scenery as we rode around the ranch was breath taking! Such a beautiful part of Maui. An absolute must do when in... More

I was happy to be back on a horse after a long time, so I did enjoy it. But I have to say that the trip was overpriced (over $200 for two). We just made our way done from the hill to the beach, and that was it. The group was not too big and the guide was very good,... More

This was one of the highlights of our time in Maui! First off this ranch is set up on a picturesque cliff with dramatic views of the water and island- it was gorgeous. The trail guide was good about making sure everyone was comfortable with the level and speed of the horses- and once we were comfortable he let us... More
