Excursion not to be missed !!!! - Beautiful view with a great guide Eric. The horses were so calm and relaxed. Toward the end of our ride, we sat and had a wonderful drink from a pineapple. This is a must do excursion!!! Thank you Eric for all the great photos❤️

Great experience. - Everything from the beginning to end was great. We were picked up promptly and transported safely to where we met the Horses and our guide Erick. My children enjoyed the experience as did I. Erick really went above and beyond to make it a really special experience. On the way back our driver stopped at a great bakery nearby where we were able to enjoy some delicious treats. It was a nice added bonus.

Beyond our expectations - This experience was beyond our expectations! Andre was a wonderful guide - very friendly and fun! We had an amazing time and will be back for sure! The tour took us along the beaches as well as through trails and an amazing vista. Horses were perfect hosts as well. Thank you for a true pura vida experience!

Best ride in Costa Rica - I would recommend this experience to everyone The guides were great very knowledgeable about the area. the horses were in good shape easy to ride but not dead heads. We were able to gallop down the beach if we wanted to do so. Both guides were friendly and fun to be around. The Guide in front told us about the plants trees and animals in the area. Pointing out a moray sting ray playing in the water. I can’t thank the guides enough for the great horseback riding trip

Horseback-riding on Conchal Beach - An out and back horseback ride. Guide was ok...really nice, but didn't offer up a lot of information. I don't know much about horses but they seemed to be in bad physical shape. They didn't seem to be underfed though. I haven't been on a horse since I was a child so this was nice enough but I don't feel like I have to do it again.

I have riding experience... - I have riding experience but my son has very little. No instructions given to him and his horse tried to drink the ocean water twice the guide had limited English and I was the one trying to help my son. When at resting point to snorkel, eat, bathroom break we had only 25 minutes. Def too short to enjoy anything. Saw an iguana. Did not think jungle more woods for brief periods of time. Horses seemed in “okay” condition. Typical slow walk on horses

Search, there are better tours available! - The tour was o.k. and the guide was nice. The horses themselves did not look as good as other nearby horse tour groups I observed. I was dissapointed that are time riding on the beach was actually very short and we spent most of the time on a trail behind the beach under the trees and in front of the other resort hotels. Both horses were so slow and could barely keep up with the guide. I have taken horse lessons and ridden horses throughout many years including excursions. As we were riding back we observed a nearby tour with a guide who looked much more professional in a uniform shirt with a group of people actually on the beach and galloping! I was wishing I had been on that tour!

Animals were overworked, ok experience in a pinch but look elsewhere - The horses were visibly tired and overworked from the sun. One of them was walking very slowly and his legs were shaking. It didn’t seem like the horses were given a break between tours. I have ridden before, but the guide didn’t really give instructions on how to ride for first time riders. The positive was that although we were walking in a line for most of the time, more experienced riders were able to trot/canter at their own pace, especially at the end. The beach was beautiful and we took a 20 min break to enjoy Playa Conchal and drink pina coladas out of pineapples (drinks not included, $15 USD each). Overall it’s what we expected, but I was hoping that the is wasn’t one of the beach ride companies that treats their horses poorly - and was sorely disappointed. I would recommend taking the time to search for another, less commercialized company that treats their horses better. A couple locals have said that the ones advertised on the beach typically don’t treat their animals very well - and they were right.
