Luis, Elena, Jackson best when working with horses. - Luis ,Elena, and Jackson were so helpful for helping us Get acquainted with horses before our trip. My husband and I have not been on horses much maybe once or twice in our whole life! Our grandkids loved this event the most. Since she is good at riding horses he let our 12 year old grand daughter race to the stables at the end of the ride. She smiled all night, Those 3 staff went above and beyond with our horse ride. I highly recommend them when you book with this company

Soooo beautiful! - Beautiful ride in the rainforest and along a river. Our guides Andres and Ricardo were great. Andres was very knowledgeable about the trees and plants and pointed them out as we rode. Stopped at a pretty waterfall before continuing on our ride. We were accompanied by Lassie the very professional tour guide who made sure we and the horses were moving along in the right direction and pace ! Highly recommend Ocean Ranch!

Great time! - Our tour was great! We saw lots of cool butterflies, some iguanas, a snake, toucan, and a monkey. It was an 8am tour so the heat wasn’t unbearable. Our guide was very nice and knowledgeable. The waterfall was also beautiful.

Waterfall- Horseback Adventure - The guides were very nice and helpful. Water would have been nice as it was so hot out - should have been offered before the ride and also at the waterfall.
All in all, we had a great time.
Transportation to and from could have been nicer. The cars were rather small for 6 people.

Honest review of horseback riding - Horses were well behaved, and the tour guide was very nice. No animals. Out in the open sun often. No refreshments or water offered.

I loved Costa Rica,but would go with another horse riding tour in the future. - Disappointed. Horses were thin, hooves overdue for a trim, my horse was lame. I am an experienced horse owner,trainer,and rider. The ride was mostly along a dry river and a field, to a small waterfall. I was sad more than pleased. Only positive thing was one guide who was working on his English and conversed alot with me to work on improving it.

Waste of money. - Not worth the money. Horses unkept, my horse had only one shoe on and stumbled constantly.
Nice guide but the entire property needs updating, and the falls area was not impressive.
No “Magical Rain Forest” here.

Not worth it - I wouldn’t recommend this tour. We enjoyed ourselves but it’s not worth the cost. Our tour guide was far ahead of our horses and we didn’t get a lot of information. We didn’t see many animals and it was more of a forest. We also didn’t receive fruit or drinks at the end.
