We had a wonderful experience on the private horseback riding tour. Our guide, Candido, was patient, knowledgeable, and did an excellent job teaching us the basics of riding as complete beginners, which made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the tour. He also carefully paired each of us with a horse that matched our level of experience, which made the ride even more enjoyable and reassuring. The ranch was clean and well-maintained, and it was clear that the horses are well cared for and in excellent condition. The office staff was incredibly responsive and accommodating from the time we booked through the day of the tour. One of the highlights was that our guide took photos and videos of us riding the horses in the water, giving us unforgettable memories to take home. From start to finish, the experience was professional, welcoming, and memorable. We highly recommend this tour for riders of any experience level!

The whole experience was great!! The horses were well behaved and well cared for. We had an hour and a half ride along the coast and through the dunes. Beautiful sites. The jeep ride was so much fun. The natural pool was closed due to the roughness of the water. We appreciated the concern for safety. Our guide offered alternative options. We elected to go to the pool anyways to experience the ride and see the site. It was quite the off road adventure. We all had a blast. Our guide was knowledgeable and very kind. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Very good experience overall. Make sure to tell them your level of riding horses so they can team you up with the right horse. You will be able to gallop on few occasions. The scenery is beautiful, ocean and desert routes. I had a fun horse and enjoyed the riding trip a lot.

Excellent time riding horses to beautiful locations. Tour guides were great and took so many pictures using your own phone. It was just under 2 hours, the perfect length. Highly recommend!!

We had a great tour with Canido and his young assistant. They were a pleasure. We made 3 picture stops and traveled along the beach. Very relaxing. We ended up having father and son horses. Colorado and Wahti(sp?). Colorado was nipping at Wahti most the time so that was funny to see. Highly recommend!!
