Do not book this tour!

The experience did not follow any of the stated expectations that were listed on the ticket. The experience clearly stated that there would be safety equipment (helmets) which were not provided. The tour guides did not teach anything about how the horses reacted etc. luckily I had some experience riding horses in the past. Instead of walking in the countryside we were walking along a road that had vehicles driving on it making it less of a nature ride than was expected. There was also a lunch that was stated as a part of the service on the ticket and it was not provided. Instead the tour guide stated that the lunch is not provided because the food would be cold since it was past lunchtime. If this was the case then it should have been stated when we were communicating via what’s app. We did ride along the beach after leaving the road which was a positive part of the trip. We were then taken to a restaurant and asked to pay for alcoholic beverages and solicited for food items. On the return trip the road was congested with traffic that consisted of dune buggies, and 4-wheelers. We were actually lucky that we were not seriously injured when one of the patrons driving their buggie stepped on the gas and directed their vehicle directly towards me and my partners horses with the driver turning away just in time coming within inches of hitting us and just missing us and the horses and crashing into and over an embankment and coming to a stop. Luckily the horses did not react to the vehicle and buck us off. This is when the lack of helmets became a glaring issue for us. Overall, I was highly disappointed with the level of professionalism displayed by Leonard Tour Transfer. The lack of contrition and disregard for living up to the expectations of the tour is unacceptable!

1st time on a horse

Really good experience, Juan was a great tour guide, he never went too far, I felt safe riding through the jungle with a complete stranger. My horse Apollo is beautiful. I watched the sunset and spoke to a horse and had a great time doing it.

My Fiancé and I had an amazing time with our tour guide, she was very friendly and helpful she gave us a lot of historical facts we found interesting and showed us the culture of the Dominican Republic. She took lots of pictures of us and now we have beautiful memories to keep forever!!!!!!!

Exceptional Excursion

From initially speaking with Leonel, the owner, to confirming our horseback riding excursion for four (4) people and any other trips we desired afterwards, our personal tour guide ended up being Marlenny. Absolutely wonderful, friendly, professional, knowledgeable individual with a great sense of humor as well as being a terrific driver. After the excursion, a delicious Dominican lunch was had by all. Hands down, truly recommend booking with Leomar Tours Transfers without any hesitation!!
