Excellent time - It was so fun and exciting. Our guide, George was very accommodating. He made sure that we are very comfortable with the horses. We rode all over, the stopped on top of the cliff to watch the sunset. We had such a great time. Would definitely recommend!

Very nice - We took a tour around the small village of megalochori, its a nice village, at the end we went to a point where you can see a breathtaking view of the volcano and thira. I recommend going at the evening so it wont be so hot and the animals wouldnt suffer the hot weather (we took the tour at 19:00) , the guide was very nice and friendly, he took pictures of us. There was a little issue with the payment, i booked via trip advisor and payed by credit card but the guide expected cash ,they dont speak english fluently so i didnt really understand) For summary, go for it!

A fun way to experience a taste of Santorini - We had a little trouble finding the stables since there’s not really a sign for it, just signs that point you in that direction, but once we found it, it ended up being a fun and private way to see the beautiful little old town of Megalochori! My mom who is 63 had a blast, and we both loved how healthy the horses looked as well as how good they were. It was just us and our guide, but he knew little back roads to get us to the view of the caldera which was absolutely stunning! We weren’t sure what to make of it at first, but this experience has definitely been a highlight of our trip. Would highly recommend!

Fun experience - Super friendly people and the trip was awesome. We were running a bit late due to Uber drop off at wrong location, the operator was patient enough to explain and help us to find the right place. Still manage to get the tour running 20 mins behind.

It felt very safe for our kids. The guide tied our horses together and walked them like walking a dog. - It was neat to get off our feet for a while and enjoy the horses. We enjoyed seeing another town. The guides took us to a beautiful overlook of the caldera.

Fine. - Good trip. The guides didn’t speak a word of English, and the horses were fine. Much of the trip was through alleys.

Ehh… if you have time - The company/guide was very late. I waited 45 mins at the pick up spot and though they were friendly, they weren’t apologetic. We went in a circle on the horses down a few alleys to see lots of airbnbs and hotels. Nice scenery. Took a couple pictures. Horse riding lasted 30 mins literally and we were finished.
