I booked this as a surprise for my wife. She used to ride horses all the time but then life got in the way. As such, this was a lovely gift for her whilst we were on holiday (her words, not mine). Collection to and from our hotel in San Agustin was on time and simple. The transfer was nice, with some lovely views of local towns on the way to the stables. At the stables, everyone was introduced to their horses and, where necessary, given a few tips on horse-riding. The group consisted of highly experienced, current riders to absolute beginners and right across the age spectrum. The group went out for just under an hour and had a wonderful, calm walk in the sunshine. My wife’s horse was called Jara and she was a sweety. My wife loved her time with Jara and there was only one disappointment. When they returned to the stables the horses were immediately taken away (probably due to another group arriving shortly) and so she didn’t get a chance to buy/feed Jara some of the horse snacks that are on offer. That was the only even vaguely negatively negative aspect though as she had a lovely time and recommends this trip to others.

Excellent experience with lovely staff. Pickup and drop off was superb and on time. Horses were friendly and didn't bite me! 🤣

Me and my mother booked this while on holiday. Being my first time on a horse and mum not being on since an accident years ago this was a beautiful experience. The staff were patient and helpful matching everyone up with the right horse and led us on a beautiful hours walk. Also pick up and drop off from accommodation

Very nice experience. Well organized and the horses were lovely. The ride lasted for a whole hour. Totally recommended ...

This tour is mainly for children aged 6 - 10 who has never sat on a horse. The description and picture showed a fun tour with riders in mixed formation and promised trout amongst more. The reality is a walk one after each other with sleepy horses. This has nothing to do with riding and more equivalent to the town rides where children get 2 rounds around the town square on a pony.

We booked a one hour horse riding experience picked up from our hotel just my daughter 9 and myself. Picked up on time a rather scarey ride there had a brief explanation of what to do before horses were given to us, well one horse was given to my daughter which I held from the stable to arena he was very hard to control and so my daughter got scared and even with some persuasion from myself refused to get on horse. They told me to wait in waiting area as she became upset and went off without us, when I asked for some return of the 80 euros I had payed I was told no ..I did not see my horse or was given the option to go and she wait no patience . When the riders returned one of the riders showed me his sore legs where the horse had tried to bolt him and he had gripped his legs tight trying not to fall another got bit and another was walking as she said the ride was so scarey not for amateurs and very much rushed. Very disappointing.

We went on a birthday trip and were really looking forward to seeing the mountain views with the horses. While it started off well, naturally myself and friends were nervous because it was a new experience and instead of being gentle, the guides were angry at us for this. Then we got towards the end of our trip and the guide at the back left us unattended despite knowing that the horse at the back was erratic and we weren't fully comfortable alone. When we got to the stable, said horse bit my friend and everyone just stood watching- we had to beg the guide to get something to help her! It was extremely uncomfortable and we left feeling like they didn't care about our safety. sidenote- they eventually gave my friend an ice pack, but asked for it back after we got into our cab, who does that?
