Breathtaking Adventure - This excursion was such a wonderful experience from start to finish! It began with horseback riding through the lush rainforest, followed by a scenic hike to a beautiful waterfall where we had time to relax and take a refreshing dip in the water. The waterfall was absolutely breathtaking and worth every step of the hike. Afterward, we returned to the ranch for a delicious lunch and drinks, and even got a quick tutorial on how to make fresh tortillas using just flour and water! Everything was well-organized, the guides were friendly and attentive, and the entire experience felt authentic and memorable. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a mix of adventure, nature, and local culture.

Unwind and spend time immersed in a beautiful activity - Our driver Beto was engaging and informative and made sure that we were safe and comfortable from pickup through the ride and hike and return again. The staff was attentive and generous with their time and attention. The horseback ride was beautiful and relaxing. The hike to the waterfall was a bit challenging but we could hear the huge falls encouraging us on. And what a reward! So beautiful after the recent rains! The post ride meal was delicious with a little demo of tortillas being made. The tequila tasting and generous drinks were a treat to finish a one of a kind experience. Cannot forget to mention how much we enjoyed our horses , the amazing butterflies and the little dogs who thoroughly enjoyed accompanying us. Would definitely recommend if you’re in need for an unplugged reconnect with nature.

Very adventurous ride... - Very adventurous ride through the river (crossed back/forth multiple times). Hiked to a beautiful waterfall and then rode back to the ranch. Lunch was fantastic and the margaritas were refreshing. Highly recommend. The horses are well taken care of the dogs are friendly and run along during the ride.

Great experience - Really good experience. Nice tour around the trees and in the river. The hike to waterfall is a bit steep but worth it in the end.

Loved it!! - This was a great experience from beginning to end! Beto picked us up in a van with AC and we had a nice conversation with him while we went to another stop. He kept the entire bus entertained for the whole drive. The ranch was so cute and you’re immediately greeted by some dogs that love to be pet, and wonderful views of their agave fields, horses, and patio area with open bar overlooking the greenery and river. They had paintings for sale from a local artist displayed throughout the area and a room for tasting some very smooth homemade tequila and assorted flavors of liqueurs, all for sale. We were each assigned a horse and given a quick run through of how to handle them, which was so easy and the horses were very well trained and calm. The entire ride was peaceful going through the mountains, rivers, and ending up at some stairs ascending into the mountain in order to get to a beautiful secluded waterfall! We had the opportunity to take some pictures and others did a quick dip in the water. This part was only about 10-15 minutes. The hike itself was a good amount of steps and needed a small amount of physical activity to complete, but it was worth it, and the dogs followed us on the whole trip! When we came back, others in our group prepared for zip-lining and ATV tours, which looked really fun too and I wish we signed up for the combo! We were given a really refreshing margarita in a cantarito and some ingredients to make our own pico de gallo. After this, we took our drink and went to the back to meet a couple of the workers and how they made the handmade tortillas over a mesquite grill. We were then served a full plate of chicken and beef fajitas, beans, rice, guac, molcajete salsa, chips, and the fresh tortillas with our own pico! This food was AMAZING! The meats were so juicy and all sides were great to add to the tortillas like a taco! I should have asked if I could take some tortillas back home! We drank another margarita and relaxed before getting back into the van for the ride home. Beto was so kind to take us even closer to where we were staying than the pick up spot. This was a great experience and you could tell all the workers love doing this and we felt so welcomed the entire time. By the time we got home, we were definitely tired! Worth every penny!

Horse back, zip line and Atv riding. - Everything was as advertised, fun for most people. The staff, driver was helpful and friendly. If you are going to hike up to the waterfall and are in less than normal physical condition, you may struggle or wish to skip that part of the activity. Very happy with this tour, fun for most ages above 12.

Great Experience - Our driver was absolutely amazing! He was also our main guide on the tour! Made the lunch and Tequila tasting so cool as well as seeing the tortillas being made. Even though we went during the dry season (didn't know that) the trail was still so unique and the spared us the hike to the waterfall since it was dry. Overall, wonderful experience!

Beautiful Horse Ride and Scenery - The experience begins with a 45-minute ride to the ranch, followed by a beautiful horseback journey through tough terrain — including multiple river crossings. However, there is very little instruction provided on how to ride a horse. During the ride, my horse got too close to another and was kicked, which caused both the rider in front of me and myself to lose balance and hang on tightly to avoid falling. Afterward, the guide mentioned that I could have directed my horse to keep more distance — something I wish I’d been told earlier. That said, the ride to the waterfall was absolutely stunning and a memory I’ll cherish forever. The lunch afterward was also delicious.

Nice trip - 2 hour horse ride, more 1.5 hour followed by good lunch, more than enough. Supposed to include a Mexican cooking class but wasn’t, supposed to include waterfall but wasn’t. Good to explore the countryside.
