“Laura was a very friendly and easygoing tour guide. She picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel via private car. I have advanced horse riding experience and my husband had very minimal experience, and we both felt comfortable and extremely happy with our tour. We were asked our experience level in advance to pair us up accordingly to a horse. I was happy that I would run and my husband was happy that he could safely enjoy a unique tour while gaining a love for horseback riding. This ended up being a private tour with just us, which was lovely (apparently only 2-3 people per tour is…”

“We had the most amazing day at Juan’s family’s farm, and it was truly the best tour we’ve ever experienced! Juan was an excellent guide — friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. The farm itself is incredible, and learning the history about the farm and why they have been there for generations made the experience even more special. It’s clear how much care and love they’ve poured into preserving the farm’s traditions. The activities were unforgettable: horseback riding through beautiful landscapes, feeding the cows (a unique and fun experience!), and enjoying delicious foods made right there by Estela from items grown on the farm, including home made bread and…”

“This tour gave exactly what it said it would, a great horse ride through the jungle through a small village in the mountainous jungle that was not too long and not too short! We then went to a beautiful farm on the mountain side with a great view and learned the process of making coffee and was made different ways for us with the same coffee to show the differences of the processes. Sara was an amazing tour guide, very kind and informative about the history and was a great friend we met on the tour! I would highly recommend asking for Sara, she was brilliant!”
