Awesome activity - Great activity to book. We were taken on a short historic tour and then to Pebbles Beach to meet the horses. The prices to ride the horses are separate from the trip and varies from $25USD to $40USD but the guys would work with you if you can’t afford it. After that we were driven to Savvy on the Bay for free breakfast and then taken to our lounge chairs and umbrella on Brown Beach to relax on the beach. You are entitled to a free drink as well. The shuttle leaves at 11:10am and 1:10pm to take you back to your hotel when you’re ready to depart. Well worth it!
