Had a good time her, i'm not a super confident rider and a complete beginner, trotting was awful but i got shown that cantering was much more comfortable and easier, low and behold i was cantering, never thought i'd be able to do that on a horse!!! Great and beautiful views on the ride.

This horse riding was amazing. The manager (soon to be owner) was fantastic, making the best of errors with external booking mistakes. He was approachable and funny, a charm to meet. The horses were so well tempered and the staff new them so well, we were given tailored directions depending on the horse we were on so everything was easy.... More

It isn't very often that you get to ride horses on the beach. Me and my friend did the morning ride on a day when it was pouring with rain but the guides were still very friendly and took pictures of us on the beach and we still got to canter on the beach! Lovely setting and fun ride...maybe could've... More

My husband and I did the afternoon ride and had the lovely Topaz and Billy as our horses. The staff were friendly and helpful even with both of us being first time beginner riders and the horses were well mannered and enjoyable to ride - we even ended up cantering a few times. A must do if in Cape Trib,... More

What a great way to see some of the areas rainforest and beach, Steve picked us up from PK's around 8am to take us to the stables where our beautiful animals waited. For me it was my first time on a horse but quickly got the hang of it due to instructions from Steve and my partner. We walked, went... More

It was really a wonderful trip and actually the highlight of my stay in Cape Tribulation. I had no experience at all in horse riding before. My mother, wo barely speaks english had neither. As such, they were all beautiful teachers with a lot of patience! :) The staff teaches you riding, also some faster rides. :) The horses are... More

In 2 years of solo travel this was one of the most fun eco adventures I did. Returning in 2012 I was afraid I had romanticized it, but sure it held true-- my group of 3 befriended the local guide who was delighted to have enthusiastic company, he gave us extra time and a detour to a watering hole he...

Went out with Jo riding 'Ace' a couple of days ago. 1st time on a horse in 30 yrs & worried about both my age and inexperience before I went. She was great (so was ace)! After a nice meander through the woods we were heading for the beach and Jo asked if I wanted to try for a trot... More

This trip was a highlight of our time in cape trib. It was just the two of us and the 2 guides the horses were very well behaved and knew exactly why to do and when. Defiantly worth taking the time when in the area.
