My awesome 60th birthday
Kathleen_E
, Jul 2022
My daughter and I are experienced riders and we chose this tour because I read we could canter in the surf. This was a celebration of my 60th birthday. Gustavo, our guide, was wonderful as were his horses. They were freshly shod and healthy. Wonderful manners. We enjoyed a two hour ride from his farm and along the coast of a beautiful beach. We rode in the surf and were able to spend plenty of time trotting and a little cantering. Very fun. I highly recommend!
AMAZING EXPERIENCE

My boyfriend and I gave this tour a shot. It was truly a wonderful experience. Very worth it. Gustavo was incredible and took great care of the horses. It shows is love and passion towards his business. I’m so happy I chose this particular horse tour.
Thank you!!!
Lots of love.

What a wonderful experience. My husband and I really enjoyed our morning with our guide and horses. It was obvious the horses were well cared for and that was very important to me. The beach we rode along was beautiful and serene. I will definitely return with more friends and family to share this experience with them.
Best riding experience ever!

4 of us went - 2 of us were experienced, one had never ridden before and another had ridden a few times. Gustav truly made it a personalized fabulous memory! We got to run the horses a lot, while the others got to enjoy their time walking or trotting. Everyone felt safe! The horses were well cared for and very well trained! The beach was like walking on glass and mist made it seem heavenly, totally amazing, it was a dream come true to ride horses on the beach!

Perfect for all levels!! Best riding tour in CR

Out of the 6 different horseback riding tours I have done on vacations, one being in Costa Rica, this was one of the best. I was very satisfied as an experienced rider as the guides let me ride at my own pace so I didn't get bored. My two friends who have no experience also felt comfortable and had a blast. The guides were so kind and you can tell that they do this out of passion. They even took awesome pictures for us with our phones without asking us to pay extra (we ended up tipping them very well after) which was very nice and out of the ordinary. They really ensured that we had an amazing time. They were flexible when we asked to change our original date and good with communication too. I cannot recommend them enough!!
Fabulous

Our guide paired us perfectly with a horse to our ability and ensured we were always comfortable and enjoying our experience. He also selected a few choice locations to take our photos and videos to enjoy long afterwards. It was fun riding on the beach and into the low surf. I definitely recommend this for families!

My daughter and I had an awesome time riding on the beach. This is the only place we found near Los Suenos that actually takes the horses directly on the sand. The owners took the time to take pictures and videos of us riding through the waves and ended up with a delicious meal included on the ride at a little hotel right on the beach. Everything about it was perfect and I will be looking forward to visiting them again. Ali and Carley

Although there have only been a few reviews posted thus far, this was one of the biggest highlights of our most recent trip to Costa Rica. Diego is a true ambassador of his country, ranch, and most importantly the horses. He gauges every riders' degree of skill and comfort of and is amicable to meeting the rider where they are at. His horses have been well trained and cared for, as he has worked with them for his entire life. Diego, his brother, and the other cowboys that work on the ranch are friendly, trustworthy, and hardworking people. Support their small ranch and not a large tourism corporation!

Diego is the horse whisperer! My friends and I stayed in Manuel Antonio. We were there for one week and did a different activity every single day. Hands down the best adventure was riding with Diego. He is amazing, you will regret not going. Forget zip lining, ride like a cowboy. Get the shuttle!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
