Not what we expected -

The experience was definitely not what my wife and I expected. The person who picked us up never got out of the car, which was also quite dirty. We actually had to call the local vendor to find out who was supposed to pick us up. As first-time visitors or unfamiliar with the area, the experience felt intimidating. The tour starts at a very poor ranch that looked neglected, and we didn't know what to expect. We were also the only participants on the tour. Instead of feeling like an enjoyable excursion, the whole experience felt more like, "Let's just do this and get out of here." In my opinion, this location is not what I would expect from an experience advertised on TripAdvisor. On a positive note, our guide was very friendly, attentive, and always made sure we were comfortable. He had a great attitude throughout the tour. Unfortunately, the road from the ranch to the beach was in poor condition and littered with trash, including remains of fire pits, plastic bottles, and other debris. This took away from the overall experience.

Good

It was a good experience, the stuff was really nice and made sure we are safe. However, you might end up getting an old horse which may ruin your experience and your pictures.

Do no go! Horrible tour.

Avoid. 3 hour horseback ride was actually 2 hours of hard sell of crap. 1 hour on horses and never went into ocean as promised. Waste of money. AVOID.

Terrible people

This was a terrible booking. The morning of I spent hours contacting them and calling them for pickup instructions no reply. I decided to wait outside anyways and no one came. They never replied the next day to apologize or offer me a new booking. They won’t even reply to give me a refund. Scammers and bad business.

Book it! Great price and experience!

We were picked up in an aIr, conditioned car, and taken to the ranch. It is not a very large ranch. However, the people are very kind, and have lots of animals to look at. They had chickens, kittens, dogs, and cats. And of course, the horses! They were beautiful. We took a great long ride through the town, and then along the Beach,and then through a wooded area. Our guide was experienced and showed us a great time. There were also photographers that were optional to take your pictures along the way. We did get our pictures, and have a lifetime with great memories! I highly recommend this ranch. Again, it is very humble, and it is not glitzy and glamorous, but what you get is real people, and a beautiful ride.

Punta cana Horse back riding on the beach

The tour was great and is very nice the guys the great . I really enjoyed I was sorry for the horse the need better care more food and better health the need attention and this only my opinion but The need to clean the beach area maintained on better conditions i now the always wood and garbage como from the ocean but the can try to keep clean. And the need to inform the new customers about the photos service no one say nothing and you need cash for the photos I recommend to the guys to lower the prices for the photos package and people the will paying more the need to be more affordable
