A must add-on in Aruba! - The views are spectacular and the horseback ride was great fun! The horses were easy to ride and the guides were friendly and very helpful. We also had a personal 5-Star tour with Andrew to the park and caves. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Aruba and was very kind and easygoing. Highly recommend doing the combo tour!

Highly recommend this tour! Such an awesome day with so many activities! A great way to see the National Park - This is a smaller tour company and they take great pride in providing individualized service. I highly recommend this tour. The horseback riding was incredible. These were really quality horses and very experienced horse guides. I do recommend having some horseback riding experience. And then the jeep tour was a great way to see the national park. It is definitely four- wheeling, be prepared for very bumpy. I loved seeing all the petroglyphs and the carvings in the cave, and the swimming hole was the best. All around a great tour and our guide Andrew was great at giving us the history of Aruba, which was an added bonus that we truly enjoyed.

BRYAN IS THE GOAT! - The horses were super fun but the real fun was when Mr Bryan took us to multiple stops on the jeep. While telling not only history about the spots but Island and culture. He was absolutely amazing we would definitely recommend!

Great tour, - Great experience. Friendly staff and tour guides. Suggest wearing the helmets on the horseback ride which was awesome and beautiful ride. We also did jeep tour to park and natural pool. Sooo neat. If possible snorkel at the pool - thank you Andrew for having the snorkel gear for us. And the seat massage. Hahaha inside joke with Andrew. We had a wonderful time and highlight of out trip.
(ANDREW - AQUAFARI was what we tried to tell you about in Curacao, also fun experience)

Private ride - This place is fantastic. We booked a private tour for mine and my husband’s honeymoon. One of my husband’s bucket list items was to run a horse on a beach. And this place succeeded our expedition on this ride.
They go based off you experience for riding so whether you are new or experienced this place is for you. Highly recommended!!!!!
I was to give a big shout out to Kandi our guide who makes this day unforgettable.

Horseback Riding and Natural Pool Jeep Safari - We selected the horseback riding with natural pool Jeep safari in early October / late September. We were the only ones that day and it was like a private tour! Jean Rick, our horseback riding guide, was an excellent instructor despite it being our first time. We were a little intimidated at first, but Jean Rick got us to a gallop by the end of our tour which was a blast (special shout-out to Toribio and Elegance--they were wonderfully gentle horses)! Shonn, our Jeep safari guide, was a knowledgeable and friendly guide who not only showed us around Arikok Natural Park and the Natural Pool, but stopped for excellent photo spots and the best bakery and sweets in town!

Horse riding and National park - What a lovely horse riding experience, the guys were very knowledgeable around horses, they were well looked after. As we hadn’t ridden horses before we were given horses that were suitable for us, which was excellent. We went along to Wariruri beach, the gold mill ruins and the baby natural bridge, there were several photo opportunities and the staff were very happy to take photos, after the horse ride we carried on in a jeep to Arikok National Park which included regular stops to give us information about the park, we visited the Fontein caves where we saw Indian rock drawings, bats and a huge giant centipede………… we had a brilliant guide we think he was called Sean, who made sure we had a great day and then finished off with a trip to Conchi the natural pool which was lovely even though there were a fair few steps to go down, the off roading in the jeep was intense but a brilliant activity definitely would recommend.

Great experience bumpy ride - Ranch was very well maintained horses were in great condition guides were helpful knowledgeable and patient. The natural pools were beautiful however getting to them takes a lot of time and a lot of off-road driving hard in the body but that’s the cost to see something beautiful. Our driver Andrew was wonderful and did the best he could to make the ride more comfortable. So the end comment would be if your not into off-road experience you might want to pass but you’ll miss the experiencing the pools.
