Itinerary
The morning ride at 9 am is a perfect way to start your day. Or if you prefer, you can see the best sunsets on the 3:30 pm tour (depending on the time of year.) Each tour lasts approximately 2 hours, and you will ride on one of 30 healthy, happy horses that are well cared for, very gentle, and spirited. Start your tour with a nice ride along the beach. A nearby almond tree forest also makes a great horseback riding trail ride. There is definitely enough variety in the landscape and terrain to challenge the more advanced riders, but beginner and intermediate horseback riders also have the same chance to enjoy this spectacular trail ride. At the end of the beach, you'll pause to let the horses and guests rest. During this time, your guide will take some photos for you at an exquisite beach. Or, if you’d rather take a more relaxed approach to the break, you can either go for a refreshing swim or rest in the beautiful white sandy beaches.
Shacks Beach- Located in front of Tropical Trail Rides and is the first beach our guests see on our horse ride. It is also amazing for snorkeling, diving, and surfing.
Survival Beach- A secluded beach with a picturesque backdrop of cliff caves where guests are given a 15 minute break to relax , take photos, or have a quick dip in the ocean.

Great experience! Beautiful beach and experience guides who were very helpful. In the description it say you can swim during your break but that wasn’t really possible. But that didn’t take away from how wonderful the ride was.
My kids loved it. Great instruction, great trails, great staff, and beautiful trained horses. Most of the time they just followed one another with little effort. Of course you had the occasional hungry one trying to stop along the way for a quick bite. We did the 330pm ride, and then took a short drive over to Crash boat beach afterward to watch the sunset. One of my kids got a little motion sick at the end of the horse ride, but Alicia and Angel helped her right away. All was good and great attention to safety. Do it if you want to see the beautiful beach and lush green trails.
10/10 experience, our tour guide was javier and he was the best had so much fun!!!
This was a perfect mix of beach and jungle. We were all novices, but felt very comfortable with our guide and horses. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience!
Second time being here, its AMAZING! As an experienced rider, I love that we get to go a little faster then most tours.
This place is awesome. The guides and the tour itself were great! I had whisky and he was so well trained and I felt secured the entire time which is something I had anxiety about. I wish I could have taken him home with me! I will surely be coming back on my next trip to the island. If you’re thinking about it..do it! This place was overall wonderful and you can tell the lady who owns the ranch actually cares about her horses and isn’t just in it for profit. The horses are well taken care of and treated with love and respect.
I’ve been coming to this place for over 10 years . They take great care of their horses and the owners are wonderful.. This time we went with a friend that was so scared because it was her first time. Javier, our tour guide was wonderful with her . He put her right behind himself and just eased her mind . At first we were just going at a slow pace but when he felt she was ready , we did some trotting and she was ready for it. We saw another tour included as 6 year old so there are horses that are gentle for their experience . Your views of the trail and ocean view are spectacular for the experience as well as beautiful pictures . They are a gem and when I’m on the west, I never hesitate to use this company. It’s important to go on a tour with a company that you see and know their animals are their priority and so is the experience you are receiving . This is not just a business .. it is their life.
The best experience everrrrr! The guides were so friendly, helpful and just fun to be with. The horses were also so lovely. I had to pleasure of being paired with Harmony and she was the sweetest! Definitely recommend
I recommend this place. I will say to leave your hotel/Airbnb earlier than what you think. It is two hours away but the manager there was super nice. She still let me and my friend come even though we were about 1015 minutes late. The horses are all pretty and amazing. The tour guys are also amazing booked this excursion.
This was a mother daughter trip and just as awesome as we hoped. Likely the best horseback ride we have done. We did see the secluded beach and take a few quick pics and the trail and guide we had was super nice. Horses were well cared for and the that isn’t always the case. A couple items to note..: we wore swimsuits as description said secluded beach and a quick dip… to be clear you never get off your horse . Don’t waste your time wearing an uncomfortable suit under your clothes. When I switched to the 2 hr tour it switched locations and it was considerably farther away, which I didn’t realize until we were in Puerto Rico but directly across from our hotel was an Enterprise rental and it was only $42 to rent a small car and make the drive. A little nervous driving and navigating but it was a fun adventure, note it’s about 1hr 20 mins drive from main city. But it was fun, beautiful and memorable
