Beautiful horses on a beautiful terrain trail ride! They also got the horses moving a little faster at different times too! Staff was energetic and friendly. Lots of opportunities to take photos. They took pictures with our own phones so they didn’t try to sell any photos at the end.

Very worth it

He_W, Jun 2026
The experience was really great, the guy, CJ, who was leading us was also very friendly. He took pictures for us by every stop. Make sure you wear long trousers or jeans to feel more comfortable. The horses are very well trained, I had Victoria as my horse. Even though I’ve never had rode a horse, it wasn’t scary for me. The horses are very calm and friendly. Overall the was very great.

Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic horse riding experience

Karen_L, Jan 2026
I was really impressed by the quality of the horses here. Very well trained and healthy. The ride is for every level of rider. There were 4 of us and one was a woman who had never been on a horse. I have been riding over 20 years and we all had a great time. The best places to see and they took many nice pictures. The guides were very friendly and made sure everyone had a good, safe time.

Horse back in Aruba is a must!

susan_p, Nov 2025
So much fun and saw so much of the island that would have not been seen otherwise. They took pictures in amazing places but I wish we had a family picture on horseback by the beach instead of individuals but still amazing to have any kind of picture. Such a fun experience!

My daughter and I loved the tour so much fun. We took the 4pm tour we were picked up at our hotel which was great since we didn’t have a car.

Unforgettable experience in Aruba!

Shannon_R, Jul 2024
I got kicked by a horse 🥴 but we had an amazing time...my guide was very nice & led me & my horse next to his horse every step of the way...which is probably why I was kicked...his horse was tired of my horse on his ssa 😂 This was my first time on a horse, so be prepared to be stiff & a little sore after a hour & a half of riding & galloping. Our driver to & from the hotel was hilarious, I loved him!

Anniversary ride together ❤️
