Our guides Daniel and Carlos were great. On the way there. Daniel told us the itinerary. Hour or so of horseback riding, then a five hours hiking, when we thought we purchased six hours of horseback riding. We were both confused by that. Daniel said that had been a common confusion. Once we were in the valley. One of us wasn't doing well with being on a horse. Because there was only two of us. Daniel took one of us a personal hike. Daniel has extensive knowledge of the area and valley; history, birds, animals and plants. Then Carlos took the other on a personal horseback ride. When we were done with the tours. We had a great chat with Daniel over coffee while waiting for our Willy's back to town. I understand that we got very luck to get personally tours. Even if it was a group tour. It would still have been magical, great and worth every cent. Daniel and Carlos are great guides, but even better people.

Horseback riding in Salento was a lovely experience, offering beautiful views and a peaceful way to explore the area. The staff were friendly and helpful, which added to the experience. However, it did feel a bit overpriced, especially compared to other activities in the region. If you’re planning to go, I recommend waiting until you’re there to book—you can often negotiate a better price. It’s a great activity overall, but they could improve by offering more reasonable rates for tourists.

My friend and I had a great time on this tour. We loved the combination of horse riding (for around 45 minutes or so) and hiking. Our guide Nicolas was friendly and knowledgeable and a great company on this adventure. We learned a lot about the surrounding nature and valley (impressive palm trees and we saw lots of hummingbirds)
The tour was very well organised and structured and we were well prepared for it with hiking/walking shoes (proper shoes are definitely needed as this is not a walk in the park, it was a proper hike for several hours which we really enjoyed)
I also want to note that the horses looked very well looked after and trained and the guide for the horse riding part was also great with the animals and with us (very friendly)
Thanks a lot for this day at the Cocora Valley! We had a great time and would love to come back one day

Nicholas was an absolute amazing tour guide. So informative and we would not have made it without him. The problem is this tour is NOT for persons without hiking experience. This tour is NOT for people 55 and above. Viator NEVER made us aware that you hiking needed experience to make it through. The horse ride was wonderful. Our guide was fantastic. But having to walk for another 6 hours or so with no experience in mountain and rock climbing was a huge disappointment for us. Shame on Viator for not warning their customers first. Obviously they only care about the ticket sales and not the customers. Thank you Nicholas.. we would not have made it without you!

The views and the nature I got to experience was fantastic! I loved the combination of the horseback ride and hiking since I o it had one full day here. This allowed me to experience a little bit of everything!

Ça vaut la peine ! Peut être un peu difficile si c’est la première fois à Cheval, mais le guide saura vous aider !
