Great way to see the surrounds of Cusco - Really good tour on horseback in the hills above Cusco. The guide was excellent and everything went very smoothly from start to finish. The horses were very good for inexperienced riders.

Great horse riding tour in the Cusco area - The tour was really well organized from Pick Up through drop off. Horses are healthy and the tour itself was great. The guide was very knowledgeable and took the time to go over a lot. I highly recommend it to anyone.

Horse Back Riding Tour - This was a great experience. A perfect amount of riding time and time to see Incan ruins and sacred places. Our tour guide was great and spoke great English. I definitely recommend. Also if you’re advanced, you’re allowed to gallop your horses which was so fun.

A perfect, adventurous day out - As said by other reviewers, this is an amazing experience to get into the countryside outside Cusco and have an amazing time riding knowledgeable and energetic horses. The stops and hikes to the sites were well timed and unforgettable parts of the experience. I will be back!

Amazing experience! - I have been a rider for more than 25 years and I had one of my best experiences abroad here ! Horses are well-treated and happy. My horse Manolo was very dynamic and friendly. My guide, Holger, had been very kind and professional : he taught me a lot about the Peruvian Paso and the Inca culture. He made me discover amazing places where I would never have been by myself. I took a private tour and we galoped quite a lot, I really enjoyed myself ! I definitely recommend this place 100% !!

A decent trip filler - It was a fine trip. Easy, convenient and friendly pick up. Guide and ride were fine. What we expected - nothing more nothing less. It was very nice to be outside the city and see some ruins and have some pretty mountain vistas. Good add to the trip if you’ve done the more impressive highlights already. A decent filler.
