Great ride! - This was a really great ride on Peruvian Paso horses to Inkan ruins. Gabriel was a wonderful host, full of information, and it was clear that he cares a lot about his horses. Safety was also priority here. I would highly recommend for any level of skill rider.

Best activity to do in Cusco - It was amazing. First of all Gabriel and his team helped all the 7 of us get familiarized with our horses, they accompanied us to the whole route and even offered us a tour in the caves and Luna temple. We saw amazing views from the top of the town, and extra points for offering us a small snack. Highly highly recommended, very nice experience if it is your first time horse riding

A wonderful way to experience the Temple of the Moon and surrounding mountainous region - What a wonderful experience we had with Gabriel and his team. Everyone had a brilliant time on the tour - Gabriel had lots of historical and local information about the area, the horses seemed very well treated adn were easy to ride, riders who hadn't ridden before were assisted and lunch was eaten with spectacular views all around. A fabulous time was had by all.

Short Horseback riding Cusco - Interesting horseback ride with some local information and history thrown in. The horses were well cared for and well behaved. Gabriel picked us up from our hotel and dropped us off. The mountains were beautiful and the sites we visited were really interesting.

Gorgeous ride through mountains surrounding Cusco - Gilbert was gracious and fitted us with the right horses, the horses were gentle and well behaved. The tour included going to the ruins, dismounting, and getting guide! Moon temple. Then a ride up to a glorious red tile rooftop view of the entire city of Cusco. A light snack and back to the stables. It was one of the highlights of my trip!!!

Very fun and informative experience! - Gabriel is the real deal - his ranch has been in his family over 100 years and has bred and trained Peruvian Pasos that are calm, strong, gaited, and beautiful. His horses are well-loved and cared for and enjoy getting out for a ride. Gabriel is extremely knowledgeable about Inka and Peruvian history and culture, and the tour is both informative and fascinating. For anyone thinking about going for a ride near Cusco, I definitely recommend Gabriel's ranch. We had a fabulous day.

Amazing ride awesome area and would go again definitely. - Gabriel was very punctual and, his workers and the gentleman that picked us up from our hotel was very friendly. Gabriel's workers were kind answered questions and made us feel welcomed and at ease with there horses. And as well the horses were perfectly trained and had zero problems for being first time on horse back, would absolutely recommend him and the temple of the moon ride to anyone that is visiting cusco area 5 star.
