Jungle and Beach Horseback Riding Tour - 2H 1/2

The tour was lovely! We had never ridden a horse before, but that wasn’t a problem at all. The horses were very calm, and we were given horses that were perfect for beginners. We enjoyed a varied ride through the jungle and along the beach. Halfway through the tour, we stopped for some water and fresh pineapple. Our guide was very patient and also pointed out some wildlife along the way. He took some great photos and videos of us during the tour, which was a lovely bonus. Would definitely recommend!

The ride was absolutely amazing. They took everyone’s individual riding experience into account. If you wanted to gallop, you could do so right away on the beach at the beginning of the ride, as well as again at the end. In between, you ride through beautiful nature and get to see all kinds of animals, such as monkeys and cows. The horses are also very well cared for. The owner told us that they only do one ride per day (the rides last approximately two hours), so the horses don’t get exhausted. The owner is also a veterinarian himself, so he knows exactly how to take care of the horses and make sure they are healthy. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

This was a fantastic tour and an amazing way to see Costa Rica. Martine was a fantastic guide and the horses were a treat to ride. Their shuttle service was great, as well - picked us and dropped us off door to door. This is a must-do for things to do in Samara. It was a highlight of our trip. Thanks for the great experience. We won't forget our time with Mariachi and Rum Poppi.

Great experience! We had Anthony as our guide, a Canadian guy, working and living here already for quite some time. He was very kind and thoughtful, making sure that all the desires of our group were met. We had quite the mixed group in the sense of experience level with horse riding but they managed perfectly so the more experienced riders could also gallop when they wanted. The areas where we did the riding were nicely mixed with good parts through the forest / jungle with shade and nice parts on the beaches also!

My wife and I had an amazing horseback riding tour with Explore Samara Tours! The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and the entire experience was unforgettable. Our tour guide, Heiner, was professional, knowledgeable, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the ride. His friendly personality and passion for what he does made the tour even more enjoyable. We highly recommend Explore Samara Tours and especially Heiner to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for an awesome experience.

This was an amazing experience for our whole family! Our guides were incredible—knowledgeable, patient with our little ones, and they made sure everyone felt comfortable and had a wonderful time. Our kids are still talking about this adventure, and I think it may have been their favorite part of our entire trip. We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area!

We had an amazing time with the Explore Samara Tour. 2.5 hours is a perfect length, but I always want to go longer. 😁 Riding on the horse through the jungles and beaches is the best vibes, ever! 💕

We had a great ride! First outfitter that ever let us do more than walk single file down a path! Raffi, our guide, answered all our questions about local wildlife and the culture of Costa Rica. I would highly recommend this ride.

Rafa was great and we lucked out with perfect weather. I also fell in love with my horse, Rompompe.

Private ride for my husband and I. We like to run. We were the only people on Buena Vista beach for a morning ride. Too beautiful to describe! Our guide was the best and he took a million pics and videos to share with us afterwards. We’ll never forget this dream.
