Large Group with 5 kids! - We had a great time! We were a large group with 5 young kids and they all did awesome! The horses were very well trained and super calm. Our guide was fun and had full control over the horses and our group. We will definitely be back!

Playa Larga Beach Horseback Riding - Guillermo took us from Zihua to Playa Larga and met with Pablo and the horses. We rode through the small village to the sandy beach. Beautiful, slow, tranquil ride with our puppy companion.

Horseback on the beach, like it should be. - Great day, rustic experience with Randy and our pony’s. It was a great day, only suggestion is to wear jeans / pants when hot, that’s on us. The guide took us on a path through the coconut plantation and lagoon.

A must do in Zihua! - Great experience with Pablo, Luis & Ramon. The horses were very sweet, gentle & well care for. The ride was perfect for a summer morning before it got too hot. Highly recommend.

Mother/Daughter Horseback Riding - Had a great time. Luis picked us up then we met up w Ramon. Both were great. Learned about the area. The horses were very intelligent and knew exactly where to go. We were on the beach, then passed by a lagoon, then through a coconut plantation. Galloping was out of the question for me, so my girl didn’t get to do it either even though she wanted to. Would recommend. It’s beautiful here.

Amazing Time in Zihua! - We booked our airport transfer as well as the Zihuatenejo- Ixtapa private tour and horseback riding excursions through Luis He was very communicative from the very start and very accommodating For the private tour, Francisco was our guide, and he was wonderful and knowledgeable For the horseback riding, Ramon was our guide and he was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and funny. The horses were very well cared for and so smart. They were gentle too Front Ramon would tell the horses “photo” and the horse says would stand in position side-by-side for the photo op We plan on returning to the area and will be using his services again! Thank you Luis, Paco and Ramon!

Unforgettable Horseback Riding Tour – The Highlight of My Trip - If you’re looking for an adventure that combines breathtaking scenery, well-trained horses, and exceptional service, look no further! This horseback riding tour was, without a doubt, the highlight of my trip. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Ramon, our fantastic tour guide, whose passion and knowledge made the experience truly special. He was incredibly patient, ensuring that both beginners and experienced riders felt comfortable and confident. His storytelling and deep connection to the land made the journey even more meaningful. A huge shoutout to Luis, our driver, who was professional, friendly, and ensured a smooth and safe journey to and from the riding site. His great attitude and attention to detail added to the overall experience. The ride itself was absolutely breathtaking—stunning landscapes, fresh air, and a peaceful connection with nature that made the experience magical. The horses were well cared for and well-trained, making the ride enjoyable and stress-free. I can’t recommend this tour enough! If you have the chance, DO IT! It’s an experience you’ll never forget. Thank you, Ramon and Luis, for making this adventure so memorable!

Not really what you think - The description of the experience was misleading and we were not 100% satisfied. Items were stated and not delivered as promised
