Beautiful beach ride - Amazing experience not only because the nature is amazing but because the horses are amazing and the guides couldn’t be more friendly and caring. They also helped us with restaurant reservation and it made it for a perfect day

Horse back riding on beach near Viana da Castelo - My daughter and I (non experienced rider) had an amazing experience. Diana was a very friendly, patient and speaks excellent English. The tour was safe, beautiful surroundings (galloping on the beach) and absolutely worth the money. We had no other people joining our tour as we were still off-season.

Stunning Beach Ride - This was one of the best experiences of my life! Such a beautiful place and beautiful gentle horses. The guides were very thoughtful and lovely also.

Super fun! - Riding on the beach on a Lusitano. Beautiful day and I loved Bianca. Got to trot and canter. The guide spoke excellent English and always made sure everyone felt safe and was having fun. Highly recommend!!!

Beautiful way to see the beach and more! - This was a great experience with beautiful views! I enjoyed riding on the beach as well as on the cobblestone roads - I thought the sound of the horses hooves on the cobblestones was great. I can't think of a better way to see the area. I felt like the price was very fair for the ride. No where in the states would you be allowed to ride any faster than a walk! The helmet and half chaps provided fit well and they allowed me to choose which type of saddle I wanted to ride in. My guide was good and even took some pictures for me - something you would have to pay extra for in the states! Coming for the US, this is a great riding experience all around.

Fun Adventure - We were able to join in on a group ride with another lovely couple. The horses had so much personality and were a pleasure to guide us along our trot along the trails and glimmering beach!

Incredible birthday. - My girlfriend gifted me this activity, and it was truly wonderful. It was approximately 2 hours during which I completely forgot that the rest of the world existed. The way the guides treated us and the horses is incredible. Thank you to the entire team that made this possible.

Enjoyable Horseback Riding Experience - I recently tried horseback riding and had a great time. The staff was friendly and helped me get comfortable with the horse. The ride through the scenic trail was relaxing and enjoyable. It was a unique way to connect with nature and experience the thrill of riding. I'd definitely recommend it for a fun outdoor activity.

Passeio a Cavalo em Viana do Castelo - Portugal Active exceeded expectations. I did the Horseback Riding activity, and it was spectacular. I will be back!

Nice but needs a lot of improvement - An activity that has a lot of room for improvement. The experience was nice, people at the stable very friendly. I particularly enjoyed the ride on the beach and the short periods of galloping. However, the way this is managed is very poor. Firstly, no one from Portugal Active is present to make the introductions and ensure you’re getting what you’re paying for. Secondly, the price is high, at least for the type of experience I received: 1. I was assigned a guide who didn’t speak English and used Google Translate whenever he had to tell me something. 2. There was no briefing, I have no idea what the horse’s name was or what were the aids it responded best to. We just kind of went with the flow. 3. The rider safety equipment is super worn out. 4. The ride only lasted for 1:30 hr and not 2:30 as advertised. More than half of that time was spent on paved country roads, between fields and bushes. Probably the experience is better when in season and with a larger group; not what I experienced today unfortunately. All in all, I don’t regret going BUT would certainly look for alternatives if I wanted to come back.
