A beautiful experience from start to finish!
What an incredible experience! I did the 3:30 PM ride, which was so peaceful and relaxing in the late afternoon golden hour. Manny, the guide, is an absolute gem of a human. He was so kind and pointed out monkeys, a sloth, toucans, and plants along the trail. The horses were happy and well-cared for. I would recommend this ride to anyone… it will do your soul good!

Eliud was an excellent...
Eliud was an excellent guide, bilingual and generous and knowledgeable. The weather and time of day (1000) were perfect, and we were able to navigate through a palm plantation and the beach. Eliud pointed out wildlife and plant life (like a sloth & hermit crabs!). And the beach portion was beautiful. Our group size was small which made for a personal experience. Would recommend!

The best of the best!
The horses are incredible and to be able to ride them on the beach during a sunset was truly an amazing experience. Diego is the man! He guided us through and treated us to good conversation and ice cold refreshment at the beach bar and we got served while on horse back. So cool. The horses are super healthy and well cared for and well trained.
Diego also really knows how to get those perfect photos and videos. This experience is a must for anyone who wants to feel the beauty and joy that life has to offer here in Costa Rica.

Magical experience
We had such an amazing experience! None of us have ridden a horse before, but all the horses seemed happy to have us. We walked down the beach at sunset and it was just magical. The guide was very friendly and clear with her instructions. She cared deeply for all the horses. She also took beautiful photos of us riding!

nice half day activity with excellent zipline course.
It had been raining hard, and the rappelling through the waterfall was not safe, so they substituted the outbound portion of the horse ride with a tractor pulled giant wagon ride instead, which was fine. Very long zipline course- quite fun and scenic. Horses are good. The skies opened up as we returned on the horses after ziplining so we all got soggy. Lunch at the end was really good typical fare- choice of chicken or fish, with a yummy fruit punch.
