Bea was a great guide and horsewoman! Her horses were well cared for, healthy, and easy to ride. She was very thoughtful about matching us up with each horse. She took tons of photos of us on the ride, as well as videos, so that we could focus on our riding and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Thank you Bea for a wonderful afternoon - we would definitely tour with you again if we return to the area in the future. Obrigado!

Fantastic experience in a breath taking location. Our guide Bea was very good with us, as we are not experienced riders. The horses were very well behaved and we felt very comfortable. Would highly recommend!

We really enjoyed the ride. As two experienced riders, we were pleasantly suprised by a private tour including stunning views and gallops through the hills. The horses were relaxed and were well taken care off. 100% recommend this ride!

Cude horses together with a competent Guide in a challenging area. Strong Galopp at the beachside and climbing within the dunes 👍

Our tour guide Nelson was incredible. The one-hour tour actually lasted 90 minutes, which was great. Our horses were awesome (all mares) - very easy to ride, gentle, and intimately familiar with the trail. We climbed a hill through the dunes amid stunning beaches and cliffs below. This area is gorgeous. We highly recommend this tour.

Passeio a cavalo nas falésias na companhia de um instrutor bem formado. os cavalos estiveram muito bem.
Christian_R, Sep 2023
Ottima esperienza, il nostro accompagnatore mi ha spiegato perfettamente come comportarmi a cavallo(la mia prima volta), ed i cavalli molto docili e mansueti ci hanno regalato un giro stupendo in una terra fantastica, grazie di cuore per quello che ci avete fatto vivere

Experiência simplesmente maravilhosa. Com paisagens de um Portugal selvagem e intocado. Os cavalos são muito bem tratados e o guia muito simpático! Vale muito a pena :)

Una delle esperienze più belle che io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo mai fatto. Paesaggi mozzafiato, cavalli tranquilli e molto curati, guida simpatica e disponibile, natura incontaminata e selvaggia.
È stato indimenticabile. Esperienza da fare almeno una volta nella vita, consigliatissimo.
