Spectacular - Such a wonderful experience riding the horses at sunrise. The view of the balloons was spectacular and the advanced riders were even given the chance to gallop. Ilham was a great tour guide.

The perfect experience and the perfect end to a trip in cappadocia - We had such an amazing time horse riding through the stunning landscapes of Cappadocia, and it was all thanks to our brilliant guides Yunus, Dervish and Inan. Right from the start they made us feel so welcome. Their hospitality was great and they instantly put everyone at ease. Throughout the ride they kept us laughing with their sense of humour while making sure we all felt safe and comfortable. What I really appreciated was how patient and reassuring they were, especially for those of us who weren’t that confident. They gave clear, calm guidance and really made it feel like we were in good hands the whole way. The scenery itself is incredible, but these guys made the whole experience even more memorable. Couldn’t recommend them enough. If you get the chance, definitely ride with Yunus, Dervish and Inan. They’re the best!

Excellent Horse Ride Experience - Had booked this Horse Riding Tour via Trip Advisor which was at Golden Horse Ranch Cappadocia. Attended the tour today and it was just me and my wife. Everything was ready to go quickly. We have never done Horse Riding before. We had Inan as our guide. He was fantastic. Showed us how to properly control the Horses and guided the way and looked after our safety. They were abit difficult to control at first as they kept trying to eat grass on the floor but on the way back we were all good. Inan also took great photos of us which will make great memories. He was very polite and friendly so I hope this positive feedback gets passed back on to him from the company. 5/5 Thank you

Fun no frills experience - We enjoyed this 2 hour no frills activity. The guides were very kind and took so many pics and even a short video of our family together. The hot air balloons got cancelled due to high winds that morning so no pics with balloons in the background as I had hoped but it was overall still a good experience. If you have never gone horse back riding for a prolonged period of time, expect your bottom to ache for 1-2 days afterwards because you will certainly get your full 2 hours riding time.

Unsafe! The horse I had is not safe to ride. It got scared by the bikes and other horse and it knocked me off - Unsafe. The horse was unsafe to ride. It rode very well throughout the tour until we returned to base. The horse was scared by the bikes and horses from another tour. The horse kept attempting to kick me off and eventually I was thrown off and badly hurt. Then the horse bolted. I have tried contacting the tour company to speak to them but this has fallen in silent ears. Please don’t book because they won’t help you when you get hurt

Dishonest and refused to refund a booking that they changed the time on without confirming - Terrible customer experience and scammed me of booking money. I booked a 4pm tour with this company online via TripAdvisor and then they sent me a confirmation time of 5.45pm, which I could not make. They then told me that it wasn’t refundable and I had to come at the time they allocated. If they couldn’t accomodate my booking they could have declined and refunded me but instead took the money and whatsapped me details about the new time. Sneaky and dishonest.
