Nature at its finest… via horseback - The views were absolutely beautiful. And to experience the terrain on horseback made it much more special. The staff was exceptional and the horses were well taken care of. I highly recommend booking this tour.

Awesome time - I highly recommend this company. It was very easy to find, and the trail ride went through the desert out onto the ocean, where we were able to take the horses into the water, which was the best part.

Great times! - We had an absolutely incredible horseback riding experience with Gold Mine Ranch Tours! Riding through the beautiful Aruba landscape was unforgettable—rugged desert terrain, sweeping views, and scenery you just can’t experience any other way. The staff were warm, friendly, and clearly passionate about the horses and the island. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe while still keeping the experience fun and relaxed. A special highlight was Rosa, the sweetest dog who happily accompanied us along the trail. She added so much charm and joy to the ride and quickly became everyone’s favorite trail companion. This was a perfect way to explore Aruba’s natural beauty and connect with the island in a unique way. Highly recommend Gold Mine Ranch Tours to anyone looking for a memorable, authentic experience! 🐎🌵🌅

Great time! - We booked this as an excursion for our cruise to Aruba, and it did not disappoint! First let me start by saying that they were amazing with letting us change from the morning ride to the afternoon one as I did not pay attention to the time difference from the local time to the ship time, so thank you for that! As for the horseback riding it was great! Our guides were very knowledgeable and they even took photos for us along our ride! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for fun time horseback riding! Thank you Jose and Jesu

Horseback Adventure - This was excellent horseback experience! They provided hotel pickup which was appreciated. We had 2 guides which were helpful and they were very attentive. The horses were well taken care of and well behaved. The adventure took us by along the coast and through some winding trails which was beautiful. Go in the morning before it gets too hot. Well worth doing!
