Amazing experience!!! The guide was so friendly and helpful. The communication was great so it made the process very easy to navigate and get to where you need to be picked up by him. The trail & views were breathtaking, such a peaceful morning. worth every penny. Absolutely recommend!

Ride far exceeded our expectations. 2.5 hour trail ride on a mountain with breathtaking views. This is not a flat ride and has plenty of ascents and descents and was a workout for myself and my horse! Well worth the time and cost to get there (we arranged a driver through the tour operator). Excellent and quick communication with tour operator.

Perfecto

Tour guide was amazing and very helpful for a beginner rider like me. Trail is spectacular and the horses are more than well taken care of.

Best experience of my life even in the fog. Would highly booking during the summer when weather isn’t a factor, but even during the late autumn it was a great experience.

Incredible Horse Riding Adventure

Penny_H, Nov 2025

Gorgeous mountain view

Carol_B, Oct 2025

I highly recommend this trip. The scenery was spectacular and the horses were so good tempered. My daughter and I really enjoyed it. We are experienced riders but you definitely don’t need to be. The tour is done at a walking pace but the terrain is very mountainous.

Great time-read my notes!

Kelli_K, Oct 2025

It was a great time and a nice way to see something other than Madrid. It is beautiful country not too far from the city. The horses were amazing as was our guide. If you take the bus-you go inside and downstairs to get on the 691. Go early as there is a long line. You need to tell the bus driver to let you off-they do not stop at every stop. $3 euro each way, easy and clean buses.

A Beautiful morning with horses

Jennifer_G, Oct 2025

The horses were sweet, the ride was enjoyable, and Mariano is a great guy! Fresh air, views, wonderful...I would do it again in a heartbeat! A couple of things to keep in mind...you cannot take Cercanías bc Mariano can't pick you up from there. Taking an Uberto and from the horses was about 30€ I wasn't counting on. Also, no water or soda is offered, as advertised, so bring some water!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Hi Jennifer I am sorry becouse i forget ask you if you need water but I have a lot of water why you don,t ask me when.we begin or when we finish ?? I sent you bus information, but you decided to take the local train without consulting me. By the time you told me, it was too late. I'm sorry If you read information in viator uou can see "If you don,t have car i will pick up you in The bus Stop of Navacerrada NOTE: don't rely on Google's information, it takes 1 hour by bus to get to is". We speak onky about bus, we don,t said anything about train. For the people read the review and want to come please contact with before come, I will send information the best way to come, my information is much better thsn Google, I am here to help customers Thank you for you review

Horse riding

Ananya_C, Sep 2025

It was an amazing experience. Breathtaking views and beautiful scenery our guide was very helpful and had lots to tell us about the countryside 😍 one thing I will comment on is getting there. Public transport is limited. It would be great if transport could be added as an option, but apart from that it was amazing and would highly recommend😊

Fantastic Horse Riding Excursion in Madrid

Sean_S, Aug 2025

What a great day in the hills outside of Madrid. Great horses and a great guide through dusty trails. Great for all skill levels.

This was an incredible...

Halle_D, Jul 2025

This was an incredible experience and one of the coolest things we have ever done. If you’re in Madrid it’s very easy to get there by bus, and Mariano will pick you up at the bus stop closer to the stables. Both of us were beginner riders and he made the experience very comfortable for both of us. We went in the evening and the sunset view was gorgeous. Can’t recommend enough!

Wonderful time

Phillip_M, Jul 2025

Great time with the horses, the views were spectacular, and seeing the area from a different point was exciting

Excellent horse riding...

Chon_T, May 2025

Excellent horse riding time in the trails in the mountains. Don’t forget to play with Taco the dog who goes out on the trails with you.

Such a class act and stunning experience

Mark_B, May 2025

Mariano is such a class act. He cares about his horses and takes time to educate beginner riders on how to ride. The property is stunning! Mariano even scheduled a private Uber for us from downtown Madrid. I highly recommend his equestrian center!!!

Highly Recommend for Horse Riders of all Levels

Abdulrahman_I, Apr 2025

A wonderful experience with an experienced and easygoing tour operator, Mariano, on beautiful horses. The scenery in April was extraordinary.

maisie, Apr 2025

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you Massie I am happy that people enjoy Regards

Amazing ride!

Kayla_V, Mar 2025

It was a wonderful trip!! It did rain and a lot of people canceled so it was just me and the guide but he was fantastic!! We still rode in the rain and half way thru it cleared up and we saw the beautiful views! He truly cares for his horses and riders, highly recommend doing this experience if you’re looking to get out of the city for an afternoon!

Beautiful experience!

Alessio_G, Jan 2025

Beautiful experience! Absolutely to be redone. We bought the package for the 2:30-hour walk, Mariano was super nice, kind and helpful. He explained and told us the stories of the things we saw on horseback. Beautiful horses and breathtaking views. Finally a walk in which the horses are not "automatic", we had a lot of fun.. we can't wait to reorganize

One of the best ways to have a good time outside the city!

Ryan_S, Jan 2025

Mariono was a terrific guide and full of life. The trails are beautiful and we definitely recommend booking this experience.

Amazing time with Beautiful Views & Horses

Amanda_A, Sep 2024

This was one of the best excursions I’ve ever done! Our tour guide was very helpful, mindful & knowledgeable. The views were amazing, and the horses were so sweet and well behaved.

Perfect end to our stay in Madrid

Christina_J, Sep 2024

We are grateful we had the opportunity to participate in this event. Clear communication, excellent instructions given before, during, and after the ride. Effort was made to ensure not just our safety but the horses safety, as well. The views and adventure do not disappoint. We will absolutely do this again!

Response from Host, Sep 2024

I am very happy to hear that you have enjoyed Thank you very much

Beautiful and amazing

Deirdre_H, Aug 2024

Difficult to say just how lovely this experience was. Mariano is an absolute gentleman and his horses are beautiful. He was contactable at all times leading up to the booking and we availed of the Uber which was great but I’m sure we would have been fine with the public transport route he suggested. I went with my daughter who loves horses and rides frequently and I have been on a horse (reluctantly) twice before! It was just so lovely and different to be out of the city and in the beautiful mountains. I enjoyed every second (apart from the first 5 minutes when I was petrified!). If you are even thinking about doing this then definitely go ahead. You won’t regret it. Thank you Mariano for a memorable experience.

Response from Host, Sep 2024

Thank you very much for your comments. I hope you can come back soon. Best regards

Danielle_C, May 2024

It was absolutely amazing! Mariano was extremely nice and welcoming. He gave great instructions for beginners and was very patient. The experience was well worth it and I would do it again in a heart beat!

A perfect nature excursion

It was a fun experience! Mariano was attentive, helpful, professional and skilled with the horses. We started in Madrid for our trip and this was a perfect opportunity to explore the countryside. Highly recommend!

Nice experience in the Madrid countryside

Lovely day out to the countryside, Mariano is a good host/guide and made sure everyone was safe and comfortable around the horses, and took us on some nice trails
