Skyline Hawaii - Haleakala

Built in 2002, Skyline’s Haleakalā 5-line Haleakalā zipline tour was the first commercial zipline in the country, and, according to Fodor’s Travel, was the Most Amazing Zipline in the World in 2016. Guests zip over 90-foot drops, reach speeds of over 45 mph on Hawaii’s only pendulum line, and experience an Indiana-Jones style swinging bridge between lines. If you’re looking for a more serene option, our Haleakalā Classic Sunrise Tour offers edge-of-the-world views in all directions near the peak of Hawaii’s most storied volcano at the break of day in Haleakalā National Park, the #1 visitor attraction on Maui. See the best of Maui from the sky with our expert—and hilarious!—guides, trained for 80 hours (twice the industry standard) on safety, the island’s rich culture and history, and its delicate ecosystem. Other tour options include a Haleakalā Sunrise & Zip; a Sunrise, Downhill Bike & Zip, and a Waterfall, Hike & Zip Tour.

Thompson Ranch Riding Stables

Reviewed By glutenfreesouthsea - Boston, United States

We visited Thompson Ranch on our last day in Maui and went on their morning ride. 2 other people were supposed to ride with us but they were concerned about the steep rocky terrain, so it ended up being a private ride. The horses are so well cared for and loved, and the family was really nice and careful about who could ride their horses (not over 200 pounds, for instance.) We has a great 3 hour ride with Andrea, from the barn at 4000 ft up to their cabin at 6000 feet. Gorgeous views when we weren’t in the clouds, but being in the clouds on horseback was amazing too. Loved the entire experience! We would highly recommend them to anyone wanting a small group horseback ride in the mountains of Maui!

Triple L Ranch Private Custom Horseback Rides

The Triple L Ranch Maui is located on the pristine, sacred and undeveloped country above the Kanaio coastline on the southwest side of Maui's volcanic crater, Haleakala. We offer private ranch tours by horseback, with routes starting on the dormant volcano's slopes and winding down through grazing cattle, lush vegetation and lava flows that feature incredible views of the ocean, Kahoʻolawe and the Big Island. Our guests are treated with local aloha, so in addition to having an incredible ride, you'll come away feeling like you're part of the family while learning to ride paniolo-style. 1.5hr , 2hr and half day tours with lunch! Always private tours! Just you and our cowboy!

The day we went was rainy, but the service and amazing staff 100% made up for that. There is a beautiful little home space where you can sit and enjoy snacks before your tour. Paige is an amazing artist, and her pictures are on display around the room. You are given some background of the ranch by the lovely staff while your guide sets up your horses. Then you saddle up, (your horse is not given to you randomly, the guide will give you one based off your size and comfort level) and begin the tour. Unlike other tours I have been on before, this one is much more wild, instead of being on a road like path, you go on more wild trails. The owners of the ranch also have free-range cattle so you get to see the cows up close on your tour. You stop halfway through and the tour guide takes a picture (not necessary, of course) and then you complete your tour. As well as an amazing ranch they also own a burger stand, (remember the cattle?) which I heard was amazing. They are open Tuesday through Sunday. This experience was one of my best in Maui; I 100% recommend!
