Advanced horse riding

We loved horse riding! Stefan and Desi we very personable and experienced guides. We appreciated the personalized experience. They took time to tell us about the island and the horses. Stefan had rescued a stray puppy Sara. She was a doll and we wanted to take her home. The horses were very well trained and well cared for. 10/10 recommended!

A fantastic way to see this beautiful island.

Very welcoming and well run operation. Catering for all levels of ability, nothings too much trouble. The welfare of the horses is second to none. Being an experienced horseman I would highly recommend them.

Passionate horse loving company!!

Amazing experience and true horsemanship is practiced here. Husband and wife team who have a passion for horses and you can tell as they treat them with love and the best care. The horses are fit and healthy and love what they do. Don’t miss this opportunity to see the beauty of St Lucia that you can’t see by car or foot. We will be back as we have bought a time share at the WindJammer resort near by.

Wonderful morning ride through NE Saint Lucia's countryside and beaches. Spectacular views!

Wonderful ride through Saint Lucia's mountainous terrain to two beautiful beaches. Alpha was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable about our horses (Costo & Atalanta). 10/10, I would definitely book again!

Advanced rider review. Oct 2025

The tour was fantastic. Stefon our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and made the ride safe and enjoyable. He gave us the option of swimming in the ocean with the horses but we declined due to kind of rough surf and it would be bareback (we are not youngsters anymore). He also got some coconuts which provided a refreshing drink. Highly recommend this excursion and stables

What a brilliant experience!

Just the most beautiful scenery seen between the ears of a very well looked after horse. My guide Alpha suffered my endless chat in a very charitable manner, and I discovered some great facts about the area. I cantered along the beach, up hills and along tracks. I even went into the sea. These horses have been beautifully trained, yet are spirited enough for an advanced rider to enjoy.

Terrific riding experience.

Northeast Atlantic side of the island offers the best views for horseback riding and we visited multiple beautiful coves. Apparently horses love swimming in the ocean as much as we do. Felt very safe with host and chaperone for entire ride.

Wonderful experience!

This was an amazing experience! The guides were so helpful and accommodating, and the views were incredible. The horses took some skill to handle (as advertised) but were very sweet, energetic, and well cared for. We highly recommend this for any horse lovers out there!
