Mendes Ranch provides such an amazing experience. They pay extreme attention to detail yet doesn't overcrowd you with too many details or things to remember. They pair you with a horse according to your riding experience (beginner, intermediate, advanced). The trail rides are SO authentic and really a "true" trail ride, not some boring tail to nose through an open field ride. You go on some crazy paths through the trees, walk along a fence-line on a cliff, and the greatest of the greatest was being given the option to gallop the horses...not just once, but TWICE! Even if you're a beginner rider, I recommend running your horse at least once. The saddles are big and sturdy and very safe. I guarantee you will have an incredible experience. My guide was Butch and he was amazing. He chats with you, takes TONS of pictures of you and your friends/family on your own phone, and gives you and your horse local passion fruit called Lilikoi. He even videotaped the runners on someones cell phone! Everyone at the ranch was so hospitable and I will definitely be going back again.
I was the most experienced rider out of the visitors, my son had never ridden before, and they accommodated us perfectly, providing horses well-suited to each person's riding abilities, stopping to take photos at some beautiful vistas, and truly getting the horseback experience in about a 2-hour ride. We also went for the BBQ lunch, which was great for the money, and I recommend.
