8:45am Tour:This morning ride canters across rolling green pastures and down towards Waihee Valley, where you’ll ride along the wave-battered coast with the Pacific Ocean as your backdrop. You guides will snap photos of you up in the saddle, and you’ll gradually ascend your way up the mountain on the return trip back to the corral.

I would have said this was a great tour but I can't help but think the employee designated to assign horses purposefully gave me a horse that should have been put out to pasture a long time ago. Don't get me wrong, you designate based on level of skill but this horse wouldn't even listen to the commands of the employees so he certainly wasn't listening to me. The scenery was exquisite and even though we went in a circle it didn't feel like there was any scenery that we saw twice.
Slightly disorganized. Good ride. Probably wouldn't do again, but was a bucket list item to cross off. Everyone was super friendly...be prepared for a super winding rode to get there. Also, they don't start at the time it says you need to be there....we were the first ones there. Also call ahead to make sure they got your booking right...trust me on that.
