Magical experience - What a incredible experience. It was truly magical. Everything was smooth since the beginning. I booked by email with the owner the day before. Someone came to pick me up at my place. The guides explained everything cleary to our group (we were around 10) and off we went on a beautiful ride on my most beautiful beaches of Costa Rica and traveled incredible scenery. I loved it!! This was a true highlight of my trip!

Beautiful walk - Very nice horseback ride by the sea, we had the privilege of a very nice private guide who teaches us a lot about Costa Rica. We were new to the equestrian field These explanations were simple and very effective I felt safe throughout the ride We were even allowed pictures and a fresh pineapple I highly recommend I

Pura vida horseback ride - This horseback tour was so great. It was a full experience, not like the short rides available at the beach. My 2 kids and I rode with 1 other family. The tour goes down a dirt rode to Playa Buena Vista, a long rustic beach north of Playa Samara. We rode a short distance up the beach, then through jungle and pasture to the dirt road that leads to the far end of the beach. We stopped to snack on pineapple and feed the rinds to the horses, then rode the length of the beach back through the sunset. The horses went back at an exhilarating run. Gorgeous scenery and got to see the countryside off the beach. Our guide was so helpful and friendly. Horses in all sizes were mostly well-behaved.

Absolutely stunning, best experience. Great service ! - Most amazing experience from start to finish. The best tour guide from pick up to the young lady that took us on the horses. We learned so much about Costa Rica from our now new friend Nicole and her family who gave us the best experience riding through the jungle we seen monkeys and giant Winnie the Pooh bee hives to riding through a river and right into the beach down to a field of palm trees in a blue beach of water an waves to local fishing on shore into the ocean an watched one catch a big fish. This horse back ride really brighten our stay and experience. The only downfall is wishing we booked it sooner as it was at the end of our stay. 10/10 we all recommend. Thank you so much 🫶🏼
