A Unique View of Aruba on Horseback - The Gold Mine Ranch horseback riding experience is a must-do when visiting Aruba! Our guides Jesus and Candy were amazingly friendly and very experienced. They made sure we were safe and taken care of the entire time! They also helped us to take pictures as a family so that we could remember this amazing experience.
My friendly horse Pegaso was very well trained and allowed me to see a completely new and unique view of the Aruban coast. Together we followed the trail watching the ocean waves crash against the island, enjoyed some splashes and sand on a small beach, and marveled at the towering cacti that are probably older than Pegaso and I combined.
All in all my family and I had a wonderful experience with The Gold Mine Ranch in Aruba and I would definitely ride with them again.

10/10 must do experience while in Aruba - Amazing experience, the morning tour especially is so quiet and calm without any of the atv/utv tours out yet making noise it makes it such a peaceful tour. Our two guides were great, very knowledgeable about the points they had us stop at, explained to us the significance of each place and took photos of us as well no extra charges included ! I think this is a must do if you’re vacationing in Aruba. 90 minute tour on horse back across the coast of turquoise waters & beautiful cactus gardens ? No question about it

Great time with great people! - Absolute amazing time! Candy and JeanRick were incredible guides! Candy had my 8 year old galloping on Blanco in no time…whether it was the shuttle to the ranch or the tour itself, everybody at the Ranch was so nice! Will definitely be back and can’t recommend this place enough!!

Horseback riding on beach - The guides were really great and will make sure you feel safe and secure. The trail is a bit rough and rocky. However, the views are unexplainable. Beautiful and breathtaking. Just be sure you are comfortable being on a horse.
