“It was a fantastic tour. Gabriel and Jose were great guides, and their team were all excellent. They were all super attentive to make sure we were all comfortable with the horse. They also had a great way of working with the horses which was pleasing to see. The tour was also very informative and not just about the pictures which we loved. We learned a bit about the native residents of Boquilla and discovered a new area as part of the tour. Would love to do this again if we come back to this part of the world! Gracias Gabriel y Jose!”

Ride Paso Fino horses along Manzanillo’s beach on a 4-hour private tour with hotel pickup, ranch training, and great photos.

“Communication between us and our guide Maria & her father Luis who owns the company before the excursion was wonderful - very nice people and certainly Maria was very knowledgeable about the horses. The reason for 4 stars was due to the fact that we did more waiting at the nearby hotel restaurant than actually riding the horses, and the horse provided for me was not trained to enter the water, which I thought was part of the ‘riding on the beach’ experience - in fact, she was very averse to the water as she was primarily trained for competition. First we stopped at the ranch for a 20-30 minute…”
