Lucas was an amazing guide. Super kind and welcoming and full of stories and information. I did this experience as part of a solo trip and had no worries throughout the experience. The horse riding was very clearly explained and even with no experience it was very easy to learn. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone wanting to get out of the busy city for a few hours!

The views were amazing and the horseback ride was a fun way to see the area. A great way to see some sites outside of the city without a lot of travel time.

My tour guide was Lucas and I have throughly enjoyed this tour as it exceeded my expectations. The horses were well behaved and not intimidating for beginners, and the cultural talk (though I wish it was longer) was very informative and Lucas knew a great deal of history about the place. Would definitely recommend!!
