We had a great time horseback riding as a family. The ride along the beach and through the forest was beautiful and peaceful. Our instructor was friendly, patient, and made us all feel comfortable — even the beginners. And having the dogs, Delta and Nya, on the ride was fun. A perfect mix of adventure and nature. Highly recommend.

My wife and daughter did...

My wife and daughter did this together and loved it. Pictures were incredible. Only constructive feedback (and note for anyone booking) is that the meet up point instructions were a bit vague. You head down Camino 1136, and take a left opposite a restaurant called TéTé.

Great ride

Audrey_F, Jul 2024

Great experience on Alentejo beach but bad experience with the company. They tried to charge us with extra costs. We refused but it ruined a bit our mood for the ride. Nevertheless the beaches are beautiful and very private. A must have in the region.

Hello. I think we have a mistake here. I think you don’t do the tour with us because I don’t have any reservation in your name. If you can call me will be good to know whats happen +351918124490

Fantastic ride through the mountains to the beach

Lora_P, Jul 2024

There is no better way to see the beautiful landscape of this region of Portugal. We rode through the mountainous sandy countryside spotted with succulant plants and shaded by Eucalyptus trees. The ride took about 40 minutes then suddenly you are at the seaside. We rode along the beach for 15 minutes turned and headed back to the stables. Our guide was full of life and well informed about the horses and our surroundings. No need to be an expert rider, they had horses for all.

Such a beautiful experience

Awesome Ride in Melides

Christy_M, May 2024

Perfect ride to be out with nature and access to the beautiful and secluded beach in Melides. The horses were fantastic, easy to ride and well cared for. We would definitely do this again!

Had such a great time with Tiago! Me and my friends will definitely be comming back. Highly recommend and was one of the best horseback riding experiences I have ever had!!

Ich hatte das Glück...

Jenifer_G, Oct 2024

Ich hatte das Glück alleine zu sein. Es war ein schöner entspannter Ritt. Am Strand konnte man nur im Schritt reiten da der Sand zu tief ist. Der Teil am Beach war mir persönlich fast zu kurz. Es war sehr unterhaltsam und wir sind glücklich und sehr nass wieder zurückgekommen. Leider hatte es sehr doll geregnet, aber da kann der Veranstalter nichts für. Die Pferde sehen gut aus und werden mit viel Heu und Wasser versorgt.
