This was an incredible tour!! I have never been horseback riding before, & Trisha was able to teach me everything I needed to know. The entire ride was so beautiful! There were wild horses, cattle, pigs, sheep, & even kittens nursing on their mom. & as we rode, Trisha kept an eye out for any ripe fruits & gave them to us. It was such a great part of our honeymoon!

My husband and I took the morning horse tour and it was the highlight of our trip to Hawaii which is saying a lot. The scenery is breathtaking and all you hear are sounds of nature and the guides Micah and Nia sharing their love and knowledge of the land, it was so relaxing. The horses were perfectly matched to each in our group and you can tell they are well taken care of. We wound through forests with filled with bird song and gentle streams, open lands with sweeping views of the ocean, by the fishponds where we saw a native heron, geese and ducks, and through many specialty tropical fruit and nut trees, coconut and pineapple. We saw small herds of horses and cows, and a couple of resident pigs that like to be scratched. Before we set out, Micah sliced open a fresh papaya that was amazing and a few other exotic fruits. After the ride we headed to the Waipi'o Fruit Shack also on the property and had refreshing juices and hung out for a while to keep soaking in the beauty and the good vibes. For those who aren't interested in horses they also have ATV tours.

Thank you for the wonderful review. You covered a lot of what you can see on our mountain to Ocean tour. So glad it was peaceful and serene. The sites and sounds of so many animals are amazing.
