2-Hour Horseback Riding Tour at Circle M Ranch - Mountain Trail with Ocean Views

Great trail ride

Reviewed by: Bob and Cathy, 2010/05/02

My wife and I had a great time at the ranch.

The check in was straight forward and the waiting area was clean with friendly staff.

The lunch was great and the cook was very friendly.

I had Cowboy and my wife had Baily and they were great horses.

Butch and the other wrangler (can't remember his name) were friendly and knowledgeable.

We would recommend the Mendes Ranch to anyone who wants to have great trail ride while in Maui.

Maui Helicopter Tours with Optional Haleakala Ranch Landing - Blue Hawaiian

So so experience

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2010/04/25

The tour was not really worth the price. It was nice but would have spent money elsewhere. It would have been better with less people in the helicopter so that you are able to take better pictures. The guide was not too friendly. Would rather spend that money doing something else.

2-Hour Horseback Riding Tour at Circle M Ranch - Mountain Trail with Ocean Views

Excellent Guide, views, & BBQ

Reviewed by: Patrick & Jessica Nygaard, 2010/03/17

Our guide "Frenchie" was very funny, entertaining, and courteous. He certainly made the 2 hour horseback ride enjoyable. We were taken to some locations that offered amazing views of both the mountains and the ocean. In addition, the BBQ lunch that was provided was excellent as well. Overall, it was a very good experience, and one that we would recommend to others.

Our trip to the islands

Reviewed by: 4 friends in Hawaii, 2009/12/02

The 4 of us had a ball at the ranch. Everyone was so nice and helpful. Frenchi and Butch were great with us. Also liked the way riders were paired to the horses. Had my 50th birthday on your island and at the end of the ride I was the last to dismount due to friends signing Happy Birthday to me. Was a BIG highlight of our trip. Thanks again.

2-Hour Horseback Riding Tour at Circle M Ranch - Mountain Trail with Ocean Views

Excellent Scenery & Value

Reviewed by: den, 2009/12/01

The 2-hour excursion with lunch was outstanding. The scenery of the entire East side of Maui, from Haleakala through Kahului to the three waterfalls of Mt. Eke was breathtaking. The opportunity for the horses to trot & gallop was a pleasant surprise that I was not expecting. The Paniolo lunch of barbecue chicken & ribs was very delicious.

Thanks for the experience!!!

2-Hour Horseback Riding Tour at Circle M Ranch - Mountain Trail with Ocean Views

Fun with Rocky, Butch, & Frenchi!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2009/10/27

Mendes staff, Rocky, Butch, and Frenchi were wonderful--so friendly and helpful! These folks made the experience even more fun and enjoyable. The views during the ride are spectacular. Plus, the guides provide interesting information at the two photo opportunity stops; the information and the photo ops are quite thoughtful. I've been on three other horserides on different islands, and this one is my favorite because of Rocky, Butch, and Frenchi, and the views. The BBQ lunch is also very tasty and much enjoyed after a beautiful ride.

Maui Helicopter Tours with Optional Haleakala Ranch Landing - Blue Hawaiian

First helicopter ride

Reviewed by: Harry Wood, 2009/09/03

The two ladies in our party were taking their first helicopter ride. Our pilot eased them into it, and by the end, they felt like old pros. We had views of Maui we would not gotten any other way. The Eco-Star was roomy, comfortable with plentiful viewing. The trip was the highlight of our seven-day vacation to Maui.

We had a very knowledgeable pilot - Glenda- Learned many neat and interesting facts about the islands. Saw some amazing waterfalls. The valley tours were excellent, a bit of a bumpy ride just made it all the more exciting. Would do another tour.

West Maui Helicopter Tour & Molokai Flight - Valleys, Waterfalls & Sea Cliffs

Molokai Explorer

Reviewed by: Molokai Bird, 2008/12/17

The sea cliffs on Molokai (the tallest in the world!) were just breathtaking. When I saw a waterfall not reaching the ground and instead disappearing into the air, I realized how high the cliffs were. You have to see this. It's once in a lifetime experience.

Some tips:

Don't forget to take motion sickness preventatives before the tour. My girlfriend got a little sick.

Wear black/dark clothes (long sleeves & pants). The reflection of yourself on the window can dramatically change the quality of pictures.

Other than that, DO THIS TOUR!

Beautiful Ranch & Horseback Ride

Reviewed by: Patrice, 2008/10/26

This Horseback Ride was absolutely a BEAUTIFUL Adventure,. Everyone at the RANCH, especially, FRENCHY, our Tour guide was friendly, fun and informative on the ride about ALL the Beauty of the Island & Mendes Ranch History. They were giving of their time to the ones that were a little less experienced in riding & took pictures of everyone in differnet areas of the ride to make sure we ALL caputured great memories on film. We had the opportunity to gallop if we chose throughout the ride as well. The Horses are well cared for & are Beautiful. We had "Bailey" & "Cowboy" and Frenchy had Beautiful "Shotgun". I would definetly go back next trip to MAUI.

Nice Experience

Reviewed by: Val, 2008/10/11

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 :)

Kaanapali Deluxe Snorkeling Cruise with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks - Trilogy

Trilogy Snorkel Dolphin Experience

Reviewed by: BoiseNP, 2008/08/18

My husband, 7 year old daughter and I attended the Trilogy Snorkel Cruise - Maui Discover Ka'anapali on Tuesday Aug 12th 2008.
We have both been snorkelers/divers since college in the early 90's, and were very happy with the tour.
The staff was professional, friendly, and full of history and knowledge of the area. The food was amazing, better than many of the restaurants on the island!
The first stop was incredible, lots of fish, coral and turtles. Our second stop was just around the corner but we were greeted by a pod of ~100 dolphins as we anchored. Lucky for us they stayed nearby and allowed us to swim toward them. Then amazingly they surrounded us and wild dolphins were everywhere, below us, to the sides, in front and behind. Swimming, jumping, and diving within an arms reach! This was truely a once in a lifetime experience and I am thankful to Trilogy for their care towards the environment and sincere connection with the sea.

Outstanding day at the farm

Reviewed by: Tracey, 2008/06/21

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.

カアナパリ沖 セーリング&シュノーケリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事・アルコール2杯付き>

今年も参加します!

Reviewed by: miyachan, 2006/07/22

マウイ訪れる度に、トリロジーのどれかのツアーには参加してきました。その中でも、私と私の家族は、このツアーが一番好きです。素晴らしいの一言につきます。

この美しいマウイの海を満喫するには、一番にお薦めしたいツアーです。私も50代のオバサンです。泳ぎが苦手。でも、参加してしまいます。ライフジャケットもありますからね。また、比較的乗り物に弱い私ですが、全然酔うこともありません。この船で酔う人は皆無と聞いています。

いつも家族で参加してきました。夫と二人の娘と。今年は、夫と下の娘(大学生)との3人での参加です。このサイトから、予約しました。楽しみです。

仕事に追われる日々を忘れ、大切な者たちと、ゆったりとした時間を過ごす、これほどの贅沢はないでしょう。

美味しい軽食や飲み物、海カメさんとの出会い・・。忘れられない思い出が、いっぱいです。船の中から、日本にいる両親や友人に絵葉書を出したり・・。クルーが、ハガキを用意してくれて、投函もしてくれました。夫は、自分宛てに出していました。前々回は、ビデオ撮影もしてもらい、後日、自宅に送っていただきました。シュノーケルをしている自分や家族、船上で知り合った人々が写っていて、良い思いでの品になっています。

今年も、また懐かしいクルーの皆さんに合えるのを楽しみに、少しでも美しい水着姿のオバチャン目指してダイエットに励んでいます。

☆ シュノーケリング体験しちゃいました ☆

Reviewed by: 匿名希望, 2005/12/21

おばさま、シュノーケリングを体験しました。 最高!

このツアーを知ったのはマウイ島に着いてからです。
このトリロジーに日本語スタッフが就任していると言うことと
出発時間が調度良かったので、参加しました。

参加して、感激したのは目の前で泳ぐ海がめ!、多数の魚達!
シュノーケリングは初めてでしたがスタッフの丁寧な対応で
不安も無く楽しむことが出来またした。

また、朝食に出た“シナモンロール”が暖かくバラエティに富んだ食事が
とても美味しく、至れり尽くせりの対応。
まるで「女王様!」になったみたい、、。   感激!感激!

帰路は「帆」に貿易風をいっぱいに受けて走るヨットが
とても素晴らしかったです。
ぜひ、ぜひ、ファミリーで参加してください、きっと子供さんも
喜ばれることでしょう。

それから、ツアーに参加されるのでしたら
水中撮影できるカメラを持参されることをお勧めします。
“海がめ”と記念撮影なんてステキですよね!
