AMAZING horse back riding experience in the mountains! - I had such an amazing experience horseback riding in the beautiful Andes mountain valleys with my guide Holger and wonderful horse, Galán! I was lucky enough to have my own private tour and explore special local spots in the canyons, see a few historic Incan ruins, and learn more about the rich and spiritual culture of Cusco. We even stopped at a nice little watering hole for snacks and to relax our feet in the fresh water. I’ve ridden horses a handful of times in my life and this experience was the first time I got to experience galloping and now I’m hooked! Holger and Galán made me feel safe and secure enough to try galloping and Holger got a few awesome videos and pictures for me. 🙂 I HIGHLY recommend doing a horseback riding tour with Horseback Riding - you will not regret it! Definitely the highlight of my time in Cusco so far. Thank you Holger for your hospitality and knowledge and thank you Galán for the great ride!

4 day 3 night tour - I, along with 4 other friends (all women), took this tour in September of 2017. It was definitely a highlight of my trip to Peru! The tour was well organized and offered a variety of experiences. The first 3 days consisted of several hours of riding, broken up by lunch and a variety of side trips to local cultural and agricultural sites, and the 4th day was the tour of Machu Picchu. Our guide was exceptional, providing a rich history with all the sites we stopped at along the trip. The horses were calm and well cared for. While the accommodations during the riding portion of the trip were basic, the food was excellent, and the Inn keepers were welcoming. I would highly recommend this tour!!

3 Days ridding followed by a visit to Machu Pichu - For my wife’s 50th we decided to do something special and horseback ridding in the Andreas ticked the box. Being fairly competent riders we thought a trek might not be enough for us. How wrong we were. Holgar was a superb horseman and an even better guide his knowledge of the history of Peru was second to none you could not find a better person to spend 3 days roaming the mountains on a horse with than him. He was helpful and accommodating always wanting to please. The best day was going across country to Moray on Claire’s birthday. Our only regret was not buying more of the locally made clothing, it was not until going to the markets in Cosco after, that we realised the quality and value we had missed out on !
