There were several novice riders in the group, including me and my wife. The trail guides were very helpful and patient with all the guests. You should know that some of the trails were rocky and a little scary as you rode downhill. But all in all it was a great experience watching the sunset sitting on top of a horse.
Response from Host, Nov 2025

Getting there required a transfer : taxi, not an issue but plan for it. Once we got started the tour was excellent, the horses are well trained and the route interesting. Great sunset views over the island as you ascend the mountain and also back down

Easy to find. Walkable from parikia. The guides are super nice and helpful. If you are used to eating earlier. Definitely have dinner before hand as we did not wrap up till past 9 pm. About 2 hours with set up of horses. Was a lot of fun. Would do again

Great ride into the mountains. Well worth the money. People were very helpful and friendly. A platform to mount the horses would have been helpful

We were greeted by friendly staff & owner. A small operation with well kept horses and tack. The weather was blustery and cold and we stayed in the hills walking and occasionally trotting along dirt roads and trails through wild flowers and verdant surroundings. A beautiful evening.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted you enjoyed the beautiful evening exploring the hills and trails, and that our friendly team made you feel welcome.

Natalia was our guide and she was so reassuring and friendly and made everyone feel comfortable. It was a small group which made it feel more special and sunset was amazing. Id recommend this tour because you wouldn’t usually visit the mountain area and this is the perfect excuse! I also liked having the traditional homemade alcohol at the end:
Response from Host, Dec 2024

The guides and horses were lovely. If you haven’t been on a horse before, this could be a challenging track to take due to rocks, slipping etc. However, the sunset was beautiful and was through inland areas.
Shelby, Oct 2024
The horses and guides were well behaved! There was a small introduction for first timers on how to control a horse but the guides were right along side us the entire ride and we felt safe. Some of the horses did have their own "personalities" which made the experience enjoyable as some did not like to be at the back of the pack and others had their own "personal bubble" and didn't like to walk right next to other horses. The trip ended with a drink (not water) at the stables where we started and a wonderful sunset.
Eva_K, Sep 2024
Great horse back riding up on the hills of Paros to watch the sunset. The riding tour provides helmets and checkins. They take good care of there of there horses.
Elizabete_M, Aug 2024
Amazing experience, nice staff and breathtaking views!! I love this experience with horses, I had fun and also enjoyed every moment!
Allison_M, Jul 2024
The ride was beautiful and we experienced a magnificent sunset. The staff were all friendly and extremely helpful. Over all, it was a great experience!
Claire_D, Jul 2024
Friendly owners and steady sure footed horses. We felt safe and supported throughout the ride. Guide gave us heaps of knowledge about the area and took photos of us in front of the sunset. Stunning mountain scenery and gorgeous sunset. Complimentary drink at the end of the ride. We had signed up thinking the evening ride was along the beach and we and a couple of the other riders were a bit disappointed that it wasn’t but a nice experience none the less.
Peter_U, Jul 2024
We really enjoyed the ride and were very well looked after. The horses were calm and well natured. Ride at sunset was into the hills with amazing views of the sunset. Not to the beach.
Lily_M, Jun 2024
We did the sunset ride during June with about 4 other pairs. It was wonderful, the horses were very calm and well trained. What made it even more special is how wonderful the people that ran it were. They were very funny and taught us facts about Paros during the ride. It was wonderful and I couldn’t recommend more!
Jennifer_A, Jun 2024
The horseback riding was a typical trail where the horses all follow each other. The views and setting was perfect. It was a beautiful relaxing ride. Very enjoyable. The only thing is we were all experienced riders and walking was the only option.
Sandra_L, Jun 2024
What a beautiful and peaceful experience with a truly lovely guide, Danai (sorry if it’s spelled wrong!) We were so high up in the mountains —had a gorgeous view and a glorious sunset. Great way to view Paros —and the horses were lovely too!
Mark_S, Jun 2024
The view of the sea from atop the mountains as the sun was setting was memorable for a lifetime! Although finding the stables a bit challenging, it was well worth the effort to get there! The horses were well trained and the view was spectacular but the people leading the business is what sets it apart
Justin_I, Jun 2024
We had a blast! What a beautiful way to see a sunset! Our legs were a little sore afterwards, but we loved it!
Jennifer_A, May 2024
Everything about this experience was perfect. The horses were well cared for, the owners were knowledgeable and helpful, and the views were breathtaking. Highly recommended.
Ryan_W, May 2024
This was the most memorable part of our trip to Paros. It was truly stunning. I had never been on a horse before but they made my wife and I feel very comfortable and safe. Will hopefully have a chance to do this again the next time we visit Paros. Just book it, you won’t regret it
Jacob_K, Sep 2023
Wonderful experience with beautiful views of the ocean and sunset! The family that runs this excursion is so kind and friendly. They even helped call a taxi for us afterwards. While we waited for the taxi we just chatted with the family and could have easily sat there and talked much longer.

This is a family own business and they really go all out to make sure you enjoy the experience. We did it at sunset and the view was stunning. The guides were constantly engaging the riders with jokes and tidbits about the history of the area.

This was an unbelievable experience that I think everyone should do!! We rode the horses up and down the countryside, passing a bunch of olive farms and farm land. The views were impeccable and the sunset was stunning. Would do this every night if I could! The family that runs this school is so welcoming and sweet and made this experience even more wonderful. You can tell they love horses and animals and are very knowledgeable.
