The staff was fantastic, laid back and accommodating. The horses did great. We got to trot, gallop the horses as well as walk them. The trail was beautiful. After the tour we were able to grind our own sugar cane, make candy, and the owners made us great snacks.

The family that runs the farm for this horseback trail is so nice. It’s not so much the cloud forest as it is a trail through farmland with vista points to see the ocean on a clear day.

First time horse riders! We had an amazing time. The horses basically self-drive, are calm and friendly, Marvin and Miguel are excellent company and the whole experience was superb.
We left feeling so high from it and have amazing photos of the views.

I would reccomend to use Viator only to research the tour you are interested in. Don’t ever book through Viator as they charge 100% commision. I was charged 95$ -pp by Viator for this service and the actual tour company charges 50$/pp. when I called Viator they made me send them 3 emails to see if they would so called price match and eventually refused to pay me back the difference. Viator is a complete scam and worth only to be used as a research for your travel but you are better off buying from the tour company directly

Despite the misty morning, the ride felt truly enchanting. In just two hours, we fell in love with both the stunning surroundings and our magnificent horses. At the end of the tour, we were treated to delicious homemade banana bread and delightful fried cornbread dumplings filled with cheese—hands down the best I’ve tasted in the region. Looking forward to visit again to the café they plan to open, which will feature these delightful treats. Highly recommended!

My wife and I had an amazing ride around the trails of the ranch! The views were incredible, our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable and funny, and we even took a dip in the small stream on the property. We can’t wait to come back and ride with him again.

Very fun!! The staff were kind and good instructional-wise. Would definitely recommend for those who love horses and are also a little too lazy to want to walk too much :)

The view is awesome. The farm family is so nice. The horses are nice too. I will come again! Love here!

Wonderful experience! Carlos and Seven from the farm are extremely thoughtful and kept us (including a senior and a little boy) safe and sound during the trip.
We went through the woods and climbed to the mountain top, where the view is splendid. The trip took two hours and everyone of us enjoyed it!

Great riding with waterfalls and amazing paths. Saw a great tree that was hollowed by another tree killing it. The land is beautiful.

Beautiful landscapes and very friendly tour guide! We ended up being late (add at least an extra 30 min to the estimated drive time!) and others in our group left before us. However, this company left someone behind so we could still enjoy this experience. That was truly special, and we were so happy to get to enjoy the tour!
