A must do experience!

Qwyntrell_C, Jan 2026
This was really fun! Me and my wife didn't have any experience riding horses, but the instructors and horses were experienced and made everything really easy on us. Most of the trip was shaded by large beautiful trees, the trails were rugged, but not scary, the only complaint I have is the waterfall was not much of a waterfall. Overall this was a great experience, if you dont care about waterfalls and want the horse riding experience this is definitely it! The activity does encourage long pants, we did not bring pants so we wore shorts. It was a little uncomfortable until we laid a towel over the saddle, make sure to bring a towel if you dont have pants!

Jacó Horseback and Waterfall Tour Fail

Richard_B, Aug 2025
There is basically nothing to this tour. There is nothing interesting about it. The guides lead you to a waterfall with a basin you can swim in and an area to walk around. There is a cooler that dispenses water in paper cones. It only takes an hour at best. You retrace your route in to go out. Definitely not worth it. There are much better horseback tours available. Don’t waste your money on this one.

Great horseback ride trip with visit to waterfalls.

Fun horseback ride through the forest and visit 2 waterfall pools. We able to swim in the waterfall pools which was a great experience. The horses were docile and felt safe to ride. There was one youngster around 6 years old who had never ridden and by the end she loved it. Wear your bathing suit if you want to go for a dip. It’s very refreshing and you will dry off in no time.

"Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience with us! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your horseback ride through the forest and the refreshing swim in the waterfall pools—it’s truly a magical combination! It warms our hearts to know that even our youngest rider (who was new to horseback riding) ended up loving the adventure—that’s what we strive for! Your tip about wearing a bathing suit is spot-on, and we’re so glad you felt safe and comfortable with our gentle horses. We’d love to welcome you back for another ride (and dip!) anytime. Until then, happy trails!"

Fun and relaxing!

The guides were amazing. They were funny and accommodating to each person. And they made me laugh! I recommend this for all ages.

Chasing Waterfalls

We were a group of 8. Two of the ladies chickened out and didn’t ride. Nestor was very helpful and answered all our questions. The waterfall was beautiful. The 1.5 mile trek was magnificent even in the rain. Would definitely do it again. Thank guys.
