Bali hest ridning solnedgang

If you are on the fence about booking a sunset horseback ride on the beach, do not hesitate—just book it! It was easily one of the most memorable parts of our entire vacation.From the moment we arrived, the staff was welcoming, professional, and put everyone at ease. The guides carefully matched each rider with a horse based on skill level. My horse was gentle, well-trained, and clearly well-cared for, which was wonderful to see.The ride itself was pure magic. Moving at a relaxed, peaceful pace down the coastline right as the sun began to set offered breathtaking, postcard-worthy views. The sound of the waves paired with the golden light made for an incredible atmosphere. The guides were exceptionally attentive, ensuring everyone stayed safe while actively taking stunning photos and videos of us along the water so we didn't have to stress about using our phones. Tips for Future Riders:What to Wear: Long pants/jeans and closed-toe shoes are essential for comfort on the saddle.Arrival: Arrive 15–20 minutes early for the safety briefing and mounting process.Photography: Bring a secure strap or cross-body bag for your phone if you plan to take photos during the walk.A massive thank you to the fantastic team and horses for such a special evening. We would do this again in a heartbeat!

the only horse excursion in bali that is offer a full beach horse ride from start to finish

Great experience, very friendly group attendants that lead each horse by rope at a walking pace. Optioned to go into the water and the horses were a little skittish due to size of swell, which may be daunting without horse experience. Views to sunrise over ocean were absolutely spectacular. Be mindful that beach is black sand and has a substantial amount of plastic rubbish due to its location in Pantai Lembung. Was offered the option for have drone footage taken for 450k rp but I decided not to do this and the attendants were more than happy to take as many photos from your phone as you like.

Was amazing experience! The guides took good care of our safety and were really helpful during the day:) Would recommend to anyone!

This trip was the highlight of my visit Bali. The horse trainer was fantastic and the horses were great. I have never been on a horse in the sea before so this was an amazing experience. Loved every minute of it and met some great people. Ari Sesta , Director of sales were very informative , He gave us information regarding surrounding areas , what to do and what to see nearby . this horse stable / excursion are very busy , many tourist take an excursion , however Ari Sesta and team organized everything smoothly , they have more than 10 horses and horse trainer available , they can do 1 horse trainer per 1 person /horse . other thing that I notice , padang galak beach has longer beach trails for horse riding ( if I compare with other horse riding in canggu for example). also you can order Drone photography / video during your excursion with an additional price

Dangerous riding practices!! The horses angry behaviour and general attitude toward safety put me off this expensive and dangerous stable. I will preference this by saying I can ride:I am not an advanced rider but I took lessons as a teen for years and have done 2week long riding holidays in for example Inner Mongolia in wild country. I can make the horse walk, trot, canter and slow and stop. So I generally ok on horses but, again, I am not advanced. The horses looked in good physical condition:nice coats, manes, tails, hooves etc. But they are not friendly. Every single one of them had their ears back as soon as you approach and are ready to bite; not in a ‘do you have hidden treat’ nibble way but ears laid flat,out for blood bite. Not a good sign. The guide’s very young horse and mine did not get on; after several kicks, bites, and one mini buck from mine, I told the guide that I did not feel safe as every time we got anywhere near each other the horses went nuts, he initially laughed it off until my horse gave the mini buck then he sent his horse off. I assumed we would go back as this was near the start and he’d get a new horse but he didn’t. At the beach my horse fought me on every command; taking off, but not straight down the beach instead trying to get back up the path through uneven ground; then getting half spooked by running dogs. At one point I was almost taken out by a practically invisible fishing line pulled taunt from its pole. At points when she was on the correct path she refused to trot when asked. When she did take off, it was a fight to get her to stop, multiple times having to turn her face to the water for her to actually stop. The horses respond to voice commands which I was not told initially, which was also a problem as at one point a local gave the voice command to my horse to go when I was not expecting it. We managed one lovely short trot and she had a lovely if bouncy trot. Her canter was very smooth. But when we turn to ‘home’ she kept taking off. After 20 mins of misery I asked to come off and have a break. Some people might say I should have just let her run it out but there were the fishing wires, her tendency to run not along the smooth front but the dangerous back mound- which if she had done what other tour horses do and follow a set path I may have just let her go- and the simple fact that I was not in control. This was a very loosely trained horse that needed an advanced rider. So I wanted a break. At which point my guide mounted her and took off on a barely controlled gallop, where she was half dancing sidewise and he was leaning so far back to slow her I feared he would fall off. I had assumed he would rider her, get some energy out and we’d try again. After it became clear he wasn’t coming back and I had in fact been left alone on the beach I started to walk back. I was collected by another worker on a bike . All in all I felt very unsafe at every turn. If I had been a beginner I would have absolutely fallen off or been caught by fishing lines. And as a beginner I may not have known to request a helmet. As it was, I had one tiny nice trot and canter and the rest of time was fighting with a horse used to voice commands I hadn’t been told about.
