I had a fantastic time! The guides were great, the ride was awesome, and the pictures by the beach were breathtaking. Unfortunately I ate something that didn’t agree with me the night before and woke up to some issues so I wasn’t sure if I would make the trail ride. But when I arrived, I was so excited by the experience and welcoming energy of the crew that I was able to ignore the stomach pain and enjoy myself. Everyone was very pleasant and the ride was worth every penny.
Great time!! Well guided, relaxing, and tons of photo opportunities! It’s a great change of pace from the beach with a chance to see a ton of the beauty of the coastline
There were 15 of us and it was an amazing experience. They gave special attention to my 9 yr old granddaughter who was scared. All had a great time!
The horses are tamed great for experienced and first time riders. We loved it, it was our first time on horses. The staff was great, super informative and made you feel safe
Wow. This was my favorite part of the trip! A leisurely ride to the beach, and then they took great photos of us. Staff was super kind and knowledgeable. I was nervous as its my first time riding a horse, but they were thorough in explanation and stayed close to me during the ride itself. Absolutely recommend
We did the sunset ride which was great. The horses were calm, and the people were wonderful. It’s a relaxing way to see a different part of the island.
My family had a really nice time. The tour guides were very nice and put my kids at ease while riding. They came to our resort for pick up and drop off. Overall a nice experience.
Great experience! The folks were so accommodating as my wife and I ran into issues getting to the ranch. So sweet and we loved the photos that we ended up with. It’s a great way to see other parts of Aruba as well. If you’re a beginner, it can surely be a bit nerve wracking (my wife and I were not beginners and were still a bit nervous). but you will be safe. Pedro and Jorge clearly know what they’re doing and will help you out best they can. Overall great experience.
Horses are wild and they don’t listen and I end up getting hurt badly due to that, the guide was aware the horses wasn’t behaving well I’d definitely avoid this.
The ad portrays we would be going into the water with the horse. Did not happen, not even close. Guides were fine, didn’t say much on the trail.
