Traveler Tips

  • "I wish I wore water shoes for the natural pool as the rocks were very slippery, so for anyone reading this-wear good quality water shoes!" See review
  • "They offer helmets at the beginning of the trip but we all had hats and stuff so we didn’t need." See review
  • "If you are an experienced rider, you may want to pay for the private/vip experience so you get a chance to canter on the white sand beach." See review

I would not recommend this place. My husband was hurt during the ride. He told our main tour guide how the horse kept trotting and hurting his private area. The main tour said “it’s your energy, not the horse” Main while, no one (the staff) wanted that horse when they had to switch with my husband. If he could adjust “his” energy, the tour would have been great.

My husband and I went here during our honeymoon and we had an incredible time! I've been riding my whole life, and we got to trot and canter, and still even the other people that were beginners clearly had a great time. Everyone was kept safe and happy, these Paso Finos are well trained and wonderful horses! The guides were kind, caring, and friendly. Breathtaking views of Arikok park along with a fun stop at the natural pool. I would go here again and again! Highly recommend to anyone!

The tour guide paired up horses with riders abilities. He kept a watchful eye and gave us information about the area. The driver that picked us up and dropped us off at the hotel was fantastic. Not only was he entertaining but at one point I felt really ill during our return to the hotel (apparently I caught a 24 hour bug) and he helped to make me feel comfortable. He was a very sweet and compassionate man. I would definitely recommend this trip.

The leader of the trip was a superb horse trainer and an incredible people whisperer! He took a group of people with none or little experience riding and taught us all we needed to know in about ten minutes. All of the staff helped to make the excursion thoroughly enjoyable.

Everything was perfect from start to finish. I smiled the whole time. The guides were concerned about our safety, the horses were well trained, and the staff was friendly. Each view got better and better. The ocean or the desert! The natural pool was gorgeous. Highlight of a truly perfect trip.
