Descend Haleakala to the serene gardens of Ali'i Kula Lavender. Explore fields of lavender that grow year round. The fresh and invigorating fragrance will fill your senses and uplift the spirit. Best of all is a visit to the studio gift shop to discover the variety of aromatic lavender products that have been created, with aloha just for you. You will then enjoy a scrumptious Pacific Rim Cuisine Lunch and learn about lavender, a mystical and mysterious herb.

Your next stop is Historic Haleakala Ranch, Maui's largest working cattle ranch. Here you will climb onto a horse to ride through Maui's high country and enjoy some of the most spectacular ocean vistas from the 4,000 foot elevation. Panoramic views of the West Maui Mountains, Lana'i, Moloka'i and Kaho'olawe add to the excitement of this 1 ½ hour horseback ride with Pony Express. Your paniolo 'cowboy' guide will tell true tails of ranch life, past and present. The emerald eucalyptus forest, the deep blue sky and the golden grasses create a perfect photo backdrop for this mountain ride. Your tour concludes with a relaxing drive down country, packed with Upcountry Paniolo memories.
