Laura is an absolutely incredible horseback riding instructor! She is knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, and has a wonderful way of making every lesson feel both exciting and comfortable. Her passion for horses and teaching is evident in everything she does. She takes the time to explain each technique clearly, builds your confidence at your own pace, and always prioritizes safety without taking away from the fun of the experience. I have learned so much from her and look forward to doing this again in the future. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced rider, I could not recommend Laura highly enough!
Sara was the best. I'd never been in a horse and was a but nervous but she made it easy for me, and shes a lot of fun! Highly recommend requesting her, we all had a blast. She's a lifetime local and knew all about the city and countryside. Must do in Medillian!
It was a wonderful ride! Andres our guide really knew a lot and it is also very obvious that he likes what he does, which seems super important to us. The horses we got were all suited to our experience, which was also a great relief since we had people in our group who had never ridden a horse. A highly recommended tour!
Amazing personalized experience. Sara was a kind and informative guide who took care of us from hotel pick up to drop off. The horses were wonderful and countryside beautiful. Bring a few pesos for a water and snack if you want!
Truly amazing. I'm not a good enough writer to express how wonderful this is. Sara picked us up at our hotel, shared local info about the Medellin area on the drive to the ride...super interesting and also easy for us passengers. The horses! My heart. The hosts and the horses are kind and welcoming. The ride was peaceful and beautiful and through a very beautiful countryside. I have ridden horses (but would not consider myself strong at it) and my husband never had before. We both had an amazing time. I can not recommend this enough. They are kind and will take care of you.
This was truly one of the highlights of my trip to Colombia and such a hidden gem. I went with my guide, Laura, and one other guide, and the entire experience felt incredibly personal and special. We rode through the beautiful hills, galloped along the trails, and at one point walked through a path surrounded by butterflies. Halfway through the ride, we stopped at the stable and got to meet and spend time with some of the other horses, which was one of my favorite parts of the day. Laura was wonderful—warm, attentive, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout the experience. She even picked me up beforehand and dropped me off afterward, so transportation couldn't have been easier. It was peaceful, adventurous, beautiful, and unlike anything else I did during my trip. If you're looking for an authentic horseback riding experience away from the usual tourist activities, I can't recommend this enough.
Amazing experience with Laura. Best tour guide expert. Fluent in english and spanish. She also knows the history of city.
Sara was great!! We were inexperienced with horseback riding itself but the tour felt smooth, refreshing, and overall fun. This was for sure the money!
Amazing! Stecy is a lovely lady, very professional and her familybhorses are the happiest I ever saw. Docile but independent, educated and in super shape. Andres picked us up in a super comfy car and we had a great conversation. A must do!!
