Itinerary
This is an authentic equestrian ballet that has accompanied us every Wednesday at 17:45h uninterrupted for more than 30 years. Its choreographies are based on some classical and Doma Vaquera repises, with Spanish music and costumes from the old Andalusia and directed by José Carlos González Guerrero, main rider who has in his professional career important awards such as: Champion of Spain in 2009 or Gold Medal on several occasions in the Sicab (one of the most important events in the equestrian world). This year, in addition, we offer a pick-up service with private coaches and guide to help those customers who want this facility to go to the show and back. Please choose your pick-up point carefully, as it cannot be changed later. If you have any questions you can contact us and we will help you in the process of choosing and purchasing.

Fabulous horses and show .....paid for transport and front row seats .....very disappointed though to be asked for another 16 euros for bus when we arrived ? .....left a bit of a bad taste.....loved the horses though and show not to be missed on a malaga trip areana was very hot but it is a hot country and a heatwave .....drinks were reasonable priced and bonus I got to feed a horse during show fantastic if you are there it's really worth seeing
Thank you for your feedback and for your kind words about our horses and the show. We’re delighted you enjoyed the experience. Regarding the transport, the shuttle service is an optional supplement that is clearly detailed during the booking process. No additional transport fees are charged at the venue beyond those selected when booking. We’re glad the show was a highlight of your trip and hope to welcome you again. 🐴😊
The horses were amazing & the flamingo dancers good. They got us out there over an hour before the show & sold you a tour of the stables. If you didn’t want to do this they said you could go into the bar & wait. However they didn’t open the bar for a half hour which left people standing around. The tour didn’t leave until five either. Once the bar was open when you got in there, it was just a counter and they had a few canned drinks, a can of beer and a white and red wine. They had advertised having a bar and snacks. However, the only snack they had was a bag of chips. If you wanted to sit down, you had to take your drink and walk up into the stands and get your seat, which was open seating. There were plenty of seats so that wasn’t a problem, but had expected to be able to go sit down have a drink and a snack before the show since it didn’t start until at 5:45 they picked us up at 4:15 so didn’t really have time to eat before going and didn’t get back into town until 8 o’clock. Would have been nice if they had a few tables at the bar that you could sit at & a couple of tapas you could choose from. The show itself was pretty good and I am glad we went.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re delighted that you enjoyed the horses, the flamenco dancers, and the show overall. We appreciate your comments regarding the waiting time, bar facilities, and snack options. The bar is intended as a light refreshment service before a 90-minute show, but we understand your expectations and value your suggestions. Feedback like yours helps us continue improving the experience for future guests. Thank you for visiting us.
Horses were wonderful to watch. The men and lady were remarkable. The show itself was varied and timed nicely. The venue certainly needs to be updated but the show itself was amazing
Thank you very much for your kind feedback! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the horses, the riders, and the flow of the show. We also appreciate your comment about the venue and will take it into account as we continue working to improve our facilities. We hope to welcome you again soon!
I wish I could say. I was at my pick up point and the driver wouldn’t let me on. After much back and forth with the company, a taxi was suggested, but 1. I would have been late 2. I don’t trust street taxis and I also doubt I would have been reimbursed. Wish I could have seen it. Looks like a good time.
Dear Estelle, we are very sorry about you bad experience with bus option. By the time that we got your message we were answering in almost real time, so we gave you an option to come by taxi/vtc service and enjoy of the full show and return by bus, but you chosen the option to stay where you were and not trying at least to reach our venue, where was 15 mins away by taxi/vtc, time more than enough when you had almost one hour ahead. We apologize for the inconvenience caused. El Ranchito team
Great, great flamenco dancer, awesome horses, very nice music and place. Definitely unmissable
Estimado Armando, muchisimas gracias por vuestra visita y bonitas palabras. Os queremos desear lo mejor para este nuevo año de parte de todo el equipo.
Amazing flamenco dance next to the Andalusian horse, detailed explanation at the beginning of each part
¡Muchísimas gracias por tu reseña! Nos alegra muchísimo saber que disfrutaste del baile flamenco junto al caballo andaluz y que las explicaciones al inicio de cada parte te resultaron útiles. Trasladaré tu comentario al equipo —les anima saber que el esfuerzo en la puesta en escena y la información aportada se aprecia. ¡Será un placer volver a verte en otra función!
Felt it was cruel to the horses, children were not happy and said horses looked sad. Coaches were well organised which was only positive.
Thank you for sharing your opinion — we take all feedback seriously. We would like to assure you that our horses receive exceptional care and attention. Unlike wild horses, our trained horses live in a controlled and safe environment, with a diet specially designed to meet their nutritional needs and regular exercise adapted to their abilities. They are under constant supervision by qualified veterinarians, and their welfare is a top priority — far above the general standard. Thanks to this care, our horses typically enjoy a longer and healthier life than wild horses. Our team is highly trained to ensure both the horses and our visitors have a positive and safe experience at all times. We hope you can visit again and see how much dedication goes into the well-being of our animals.
Great show horses looked really healty & well looked after. Fantastic riding by all fantastic young lady doing the flamenco horses in sinc with her brilliant show . Would recomend it cheap price with transport pick up points .
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the show and noticed how healthy and well-cared-for our horses are. Their wellbeing is our top priority — they receive daily attention, excellent nutrition, and regular veterinary care to ensure they remain in the best possible condition. We’re also proud of our riders, especially our talented young performer in the flamenco segment, who works in perfect harmony with her horse. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re glad you appreciated the value and convenience of our transport service. We look forward to welcoming you again soon!
We found it a very sad and depressing experience.The horses were utterly beautiful,huge,and magnificent specimens,beautiful to behold,but they were kept in tiny stables ,ridiculous for such huge creatures,that looked as if they hadn't been cleared out for a while.THE horses appeared to be stressed,listless and dull eyed.During the performance many were foaming at the mouth,and one so distressed it had to be taken out of the arena.They were certainly not happy performing.One had a nasty cut on its leg.The arena itself,was hot and uncomfortable for the spectators with just a few small fans,of thr type you might use at home fixed high up I had looked forward to this so much as there is nothing lovelier than a beautiful horse galloping and majestic but I found this experience sad and depressing to the extent that I wish I hadn't gone.These por creatures had had every bit of spirit trained out of them.
Dear visitor, First of all, thank you for sharing your thoughts about your experience with us. We would like to clarify a few points: every single box has fresh water provided by a fountain connected to a pipe, and each box is cleaned every day. However, some horses are naturally cleaner than others. We encourage you to visit more stables and speak with their owners — you will learn a lot. Secondly, all of our horses are trained daily with their riders and treated like champions. Horses will not move if they feel fear or danger, so once again, we invite you to look beyond what first meets the eye. Regarding the fans, as you mentioned, we have smaller ones as well as three XXL fans placed in strategic areas, where most people should be seated. If you are familiar with horses, you will know that they cannot be kept under air conditioning or heaters. Please also keep in mind that Málaga is a hot place, something to consider when visiting facilities like ours. Despite the misunderstandings, we sincerely wish you all the best. Kind regards, The El Ranchito Team
Fantastic show with various acts, beautiful horses and professional riders! One of the highlights in the Malaga area. Wouldn't miss this show if you're around. The pickup was also well arranged. Could choose where we were picked up and they were neat on time and had us neatly dropped off after the show.
Beste visitante, hartelijk dank voor uw bezoek en mooie feedback! We wensen u het allerbeste, El Ranchito
