Brilliant tour well above expectations learnt lots about riding and the staff were tremendous would highly recommend for anyone especially beginners
Horseback riding on the beach for TWO!!! Just our luck we were the only two to book for an early afternoon ride, which made our ride on the beach very private and more special! The guide made us very comfortable and was full of information and extremely funny. I hadn't been on a horse in quite sometime and it was indeed a first for my companion. We both did well and would love to do it again in the near future!
Amazing. I love horseback riding. The horses were pretty small though so it felt more like a pony. The beach we went to was great as well and swimming with the horses was awesome because we got to ride bareback. Would do it again.
The horse riding was great. It was the first time my partner has ridden a horse and he was a natural. The scenery was lovely as well. My only complaint was that my horse was super stubborn and didn't want to participate so was lead throughout the whole ride. The stables should have given me a different horse so I wasn't the only one who wasn't riding solo.
The trip itself was enjoyable, and I would recommend horseback riding in Cancun. Unfortunately, the information given about pickup points was incorrect, and the cafe we were meant to meet outside of has not existed for over two years. I think Viator needs to update the confirmation schedule and also the website. Also, despite confirming the trip, the ranch had no details of my booking, and over half an hour was wasted making a series of phone calls to rectify this problem. Stressful to say the least!!!!
Very friendly guides. Beautiful trail and beach. Beautiful horses. We loved it! Food at the end of the tour needs improvement and variety, but the tour is definitely worth doing anyway.
My kids enjoyed it and it was a first for my husband. The horses are tame and tour guides are pleasant.
We had a great experience. No one fell off their horse. However, we did not get to ride horse for 2 hours, it was more like an hour and a half. We did not get to go into the water with the horses and we were on the beach no more than half an hour. If it wasn't for the friendly wranglers and the love of horses, I would have been disappointed.
Viator's online information was inadequate. It did not indicate that this was a totally walking ride, no galloping or even any trotting at all. My girlfriend and I both used to own horses, so this was totally boring! Moreover, the ranch operators grouped beginners, intermediate and advanced riders together into a huge unwieldy group of over 50 riders. As a result, it took until 10:00am to get everyone saddled up to even start the ride.
In addition, Viator's online information did not specify that we should bring swim suits along so that we can swim with our horses in the ocean. The rest of the group booked through a hotel and were apparently properly briefed in this regard. So we sat by in our long pants normal riding attire while everyone else swam with their horses. It was a very disappointing experience at any price - a total ripoff!!
Note from Viator: We apologize for your disappointment regarding this tour. This horseback riding is a guided tour, where experts, intermediates and beginners ride all together. When the tours begins, the tour coordinators ask clients about their ridding skills to accommodate experts on the front, intermediates on the middle and beginners on the back, but they ride together as group. The goal of this activity is to enjoy the jungle and the beach scenery.
Additionally, as our product detail page states participants wanting to swim will have to wear their swim suits under their clothes, as there is no place to change.
