I Was Terrified!
I was scared and nervous the ENTIRE ride. I specifically asked for the slowest horse and somehow ended up with Little Thugga, who apparently thought he was the leader of the pack and needed to be involved in everything.
I talked trash basically the whole time, but the staff was amazing; patient, reassuring, and very kind.
Would I personally do it again? Absolutely not. 😂 But if you want a fun horseback riding experience with beautiful views, this is definitely a great option.
And watch out for that tall brown horse with the Mohawk. 🥴

Rancho un Regalo De Dios
This was a great experience from start to finish . The guides were very helpful and made sure everyone felt safe and had a good time . It was very well organized and an easy process . It was interesting going to a Dominican ranch and family run business . They were informative throughout . We had a wonderful experience!!

BOOK This tour!
This was hands down the best excursion I took while in Punta Cana. They really showed us a great experience. The tour guide was great and every detail of the tour was great. The Dominican lunch is going to knock your socks off!!! We enjoyed the weather and the culture. I would give this tour 20/10.. absolutely great!

John Carlos took the most...
John Carlos took the most amazing photos! Juan ensured I felt comfortable when I told him I was scared of falling off the horse. He helped me on and off each time and held my horse in his hand since I was scared to lead on my own. A truly kind group of caballeros that wanted to give us the best even

Super fun , we got the GOLD VIP ticket , went for my boyfriends birthday and the experience was amazing !!! Everything went smooth from pickup to drop off and instructions once we arrived were very clear which I appreciated , we had no trouble getting to our section and seats as well as finding our shuttle back to the hotel , everything went smooth which is what you want when traveling to a different country

Awesome Experience
The experience from start to finish was phenomenal. Our tour guide Cassue came ready with high frequency energy and had the guest entertained right throughout. This experience is not one to pass by. I would recommend anyone looking for a whole day excursion in the DR to do it! My first time doing horse back riding and I was very fearful as a guide assisted me all the way through the tour. Also, the zip line was short but fun, the dune buggies were great which is a thrill seeker. I can't stop raving about this experience. Just come prepare with bandanas and goggles for the dust and a thrill ride. Not the mention the cave experience, that was a vibe to cool you off from the days activities. This is a must do adventure.

Excellent!
We did the 1 hour morning ride at 9:00 am. The transfer was an open air bus. Great for seeing the sites. Note: we were notified the morning of what time pick Up would be.
Upon arrival at the ranch we were greeted, signed waivers, fitted for helmets and put on the horses. The horses were very easy to ride and well trained. There were 3 commands with your reins. Left, right and stop. Pretty easy!
There is staff to take picture on the beach and video of the group riding. We didn’t decide to buy them. But did get the magnet :)
The ride went through a trail, on the beach, on the street and back again. The views of water and beach were amazing. This excursion was the highlight of our trip.
I wish I got his name. But the guide was so fun and kind and knowledgeable. He had a way of making everyone very comfortable.
All in al, we were gone from the hotel from 8:10 -1:30 which was far longer than I expected. But I’m so glad we went. My husband (55) and daughter (21) both agreed that we would do it again!
Only disappointment was we didn’t see any t shirts with the ranch name on them to buy as souvenirs!
10/10. Thank you for a great time.

Johnny is the Best!!
This experience as a solo person is one I absolutely loved! Johnny is thoughtful, caring and an expert at guiding the group. When someone breaks down he immediately helps. He’s conversational, connected and communicates clearly the expectations of the experience. If you’re ever looking for adventure and need an English speaking tour guide who genuinely cares about your desired outcome Johnny is the guy!

Amazing horseback riding experience
It was an amazing horseback riding today.. place looks a little sketchy when you get there but they are legit and they take you on an amazing ride... We went through the woods then an open field then more woods than Creek and lots of puddles and then the ocean... It was amazing and beautiful and they took lots of pictures of us... Pictures were extra of course but worth it they gave us 65 pictures for the money that they asked... Would definitely recommend it to anybody..

Review
Everything was great. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and took us to all 5 activities. There was also something to do back-to-back. The market could have been skipped, but it was a good experience and allowed us to acknowledge the culture and way of living for ourselves!

Beware of Gift Shop
Fausto was an amazing guide riding horses with him was a 10/10 I would 100% recommend it’s a unforgettable unique experience you need to try if you are in Punta Cana they even let you take photos on your own phone which is a huge plus Fausto once again was a 10/10 he took us privately because wed been on horses previously and that made our experience so magical and special however once you’re done BEWARE OF GIFT SHOP as they will try and hustle you at the gift shop they say they are giving you a discount but they don’t even know their own prices they charge you by the way you look then say the prices in pesos to get you to pay without looking at the dollar amount once you ask it will be 200 for 4 bracelets a ring and a wooden pipe then they’ll lower the price lower and lower which is fine I’m not mad at the hustle but once they tell someone else the price is 10 then I look at Mine and your charging me 40 per bracelet something is wrong!!! That was truly the only thing the rest was amazing !!

The healthiest most beautiful horses in Punta Cana
I believe his name is Pedro, he's the older handsome gentleman that runs the show there at the ranch, that man knows his stuff, I felt very safe , riding the horses with him guiding. Bathrooms are so clean!!! Everyone working on the ranch has good customer service. There's also another guy working there, can't remember his name BUT he has 9 kids ALL girls, make sure you give that man a BIG tip, we all know how expensive girls are 😁
