Ride in Paradise - Absolutely loved our trail ride. I took my 3 children and they were wonderful with the kids. From beginning to end we adored this activity. We are in Costa Rica for a month and have packed in the activities and this was one of my favorites, much to even my surprise. Even emailed free digital pictures to us after the event, really appreciated it. Thank you!

Amazing experience - We had an amazing experience for our first horseback riding. The horses are in an healthy environment, it’s not like the horses you see on the beach all day in Tamarindo. This family only do one tour a day to go see the sunset on a virgin beach. They are really kind and helpful, to make you confortable. The horses are really calm and well trained. We went through the mountain, we stopped for photos, then went to the beach and took a break to watch the sunset. It was very intimate and we had the best time in Samara. We would recommend this particular tour to anyone who loves sunset and animals. Even if it’s your first time or if you’re with kids!

Great tour for kids - Super nice tour. My two children (10+13) did it together and would go again in a heartbeat. Everything was explained to them really well and even though the tour was in English and not German, it wasn't a problem for either of them.

Wonderful Horseback-Riding Tour! - Truly Wonderful! One of the best things we did on vacation. We appreciated the pick up ride to the ranch. Lovely family run business, took us riding to a variety of landscapes, with fantastic views and an incredible sunset. Interesting facts about the region were shared, and monkeys were spotted! The beautiful horses were well trained and healthy, Our family was aged 11 to 70 yrs. old. The snack and water provided were perfect. So don't bother bringing your own. Those wearing long pants were more comfortable, also wear sturdy shoes to stand up in the stirrups to gallop. We all absolutely loved this experience!

Wow, that was awesome :) - What an awesome adventure for all ages. My kids were 14, 10, and 8 and they all loved it. My 10-year-old was scared at the beginning, but the organizers addressed his fears and let him gain confidence slowly. We went slowly, had great views of the beach from a cliff. We then made our way back down to the beach. We had a chance to gallop :) Thank you :)

Wonderful experience - It was a magical moment of pure happiness! The hike is perfect between the mountains, the jungle, the crossing of a river and the wonderful gallop on the beach🤩my 13 year old daughter and I are totally satisfied and the Quebec guide was very good and interesting. It’s not a single-file hike, the horses listen to us very well and they are super nice ☀️🐒🐴

All was great-Francisco... - All was great-Francisco our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The variety of scenery was a plus. Riding on the beach at the end was fun. Our only suggestion would be for riders AND guide to double and triple check that the saddles are secured. One of our experienced riders fell off while galloping on the beach because the girth or cinch was not (or came unbuckled) buckled.

Good until it wasn’t - Everything was good, but if you plan on galloping on the beach make sure your guide checks your horse’s girth. Mine came off which made the saddle slide off the horse with me on it…not good!
