Ridning och Cotopaxi National Park Dagstur

Ximena was my guide and she was 5 minutes early for pick up. The vehicle was comfortable and clean. She is a great guide and very knowledgeable. I enjoyed the horseback riding the most. I felt like I was in a South American version of Game of Thrones, galloping thru the countryside. Highly recommend to anyone.

The experience was absolutely amazing!! The driver was super professional and has lived in Ecuador all his life. He’s fluent in all the culture, nature and history of Ecuador and Cotapaxi. We learned so much and the conversation made the car ride go so fast. He made sure we had the best experience riding horses and translated for us. This is a trip we’ll never forget. Tips: - Be on time when he picks you up. Gives time for pictures and comfortable transition for the horse - Sunglasses are your best friend - sun is on you the whole time - bring money to tip the 2 guides and driver. - wear sunscreen and bring water

From the té de canela , to the refreshing passion fruit under the glory of the Cotopaxi Volcano my day with Luis was simply fantastic. Local cuisine, insights on local flora and its uses, The wild horses, bulls, foxes, and geckos who made a home at that high altitude, made the trek under Cotopaxi, and the Horseride up to the protectors of Cotopaxi under Rumiñahui unforgettable.

Lovely tour, well behaved horses with amazing views and Diana out guide was great. Only disappointjng thing we were told and confirmed on the booking it was a private tour but the horse riding was a mixed ability group and also told we would be able to canter/gallop but we didn't as there were people in our group who had never ridden before

Miriam was a great guide. She navigated the rough terrain up to Cotopaxi confidently. She was very knowledgeable and friendly and had lots of great information. I loved getting the tour from a local guide.

An expensive excursion but so unique that it is worth it! We truly loved the horseback ride and hospitality of the hacienda staff. They provided us with warm drinks, warm clothes, and a great ride to view Cotapaxi. Our drive to the lagoon and hike was refreshing with beautiful views. It’s always nice to get outdoors and enjoy nature. Our tour guide, Ivan was very pleasant, calm, informative, and a pleasure to be around. He was knowledgeable and took great care of us for the day.

Incredible experience for my finance and myself. The guide was excellent and the views exceptional. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful panoramic vistas. So glad my daughter and I did this. The hacienda was so charming. It was built in early 1500s. Even though was cold and windy it was a wonderful tour. This was just the 2 of us on the tour. Tour guide was very knowledgeable about the fauna and birds on easy hike around lagoon at Cotopaxi. Even though it was cloudy and chilly we had a great time.

Pros: we absolutely loved this tour. Diana, our guide was amazing, welcoming, friendly, answered questions, and was accommodating with stops for the bathrooms, coffee, and just to take photos. And of course hiking Cotopaxi was incredible. Plus the lunch was to die for. (And good vegetarian options!) Cons: the agenda listed horseback riding, hiking, and lunch. About 2hrs in we asked when we would be horseback riding and were told actually this tour had none! Not sure if we were put on the wrong tour or if this was just a change of plans, and we were more excited about hiking anyhow, BUT! If you desperately want to horseback ride, triple check. 🤣

This was an amazing tour. The horseback riding was an easy two hours roundtrip to a mirador of Cotopaxi. We were blessed with a perfect day: clear blue skies, minimal clouds and striking views of the mountain. Ximena was a wonderful guide; she spoke English well and was very informative and friendly. Miguel, our 'Chagras' guide on horseback, was also great. This was just a perfect day!
