  • Horse back riding a must with Lino

    We did this tour on February 28, 2025, and we were a group of 5. We were picked up right on time by our guide “Lino” in a very new and comfortable ride. Lino spoke very good English which was great when telling us about Loreto. We had a short drive to the riding stables from downtown Loreto. Along the drive, Lino was very informative and told us about the areas along the way. When we arrived we were greeted by the hands of the trail riding company. We were all informed on what to expect, we have all ridden before so the orientation went quickly. The horses and mules were well looked after. Lino accompanied us all the way and the ride was amazing. We went through the desert and arrived on the beach. We were on the beach for the majority of the ride. The tour included non alcoholic drinks and some snack bars. The horse ride back we headed back through a small town greeted by many children waving to us. The tour was amazing and would definitely recommend it and ask for Lino if you want a great tour guide.

    It was such fun and our guide was very knowledgeable about history around the protected islands. Was not too much for inexperienced riders

    This was such a memorable experience must try. The guide was so nice and knowledgeable gave us facts about the surrounding area, we laughed a lot. The ride up the coast was absolutely beautiful.

    Juan and Joselito started by picking us up directly from our resort. They pointed out dolphins as we went by and described other scenery. When we arrived at Juan’s family ranch, the kids got to explore and see queso fresco cheese making and the family’s outdoor kitchen and meet the baby goats and pigs recently born while the ranchers got the horses ready. The horses were gentle and well cared-for. We rode up the arroyo through beautiful countryside for about 40 minutes and then turned around, with Joselito following aways behind in the van in case we needed something from our bags or a rest (couldn’t see or hear him but knew he was there). When we returned, we were offered water or gatorade and the kids got to visit the animals again. We then had another scenic ride back to the resort. It was one of the best parts of our trip so far! Highly recommend. There were three of us—myself and my two sons, ages 10 and 12. My younger son rides every week but my older son has almost no experience and both were thrilled with the experience.

  • Paid and received tickets but no tour

    Edit: We have still not heard back in writing but have been assured that a refund will be issued. We were happy to be able to book online the night before the tour. However, the next day we waited at the pickup spot and were told by the van driver from the company that no tour would be possible that day. We waited while he called the office and were told no tour had been organized for us as we had booked after their closing time. Viator had issued us tickets for that day. We explained that we understood and had some flexibility and could they please get back to us via email. We have emailed to organize an alternate date/tour or refund and have not yet had any contact at all from Wild Loreto.

  • Lovely Beach Ride

    We really enjoyed our riding experience with Mario! He gave us a ton of great information about Loreto and it’s history, as well as provided a safe ride on horses/miles down to the beach of Danzante Bay and back around to the ranch. During our ride we spotted turtle nests, a baby marlin, a skipping rooster fish, and more. Very relaxing and romantic.

    This was an incredible way to see the desert. We are so happy we did this. It really was such a special experience. We had minimal horseback riding experience and Mario made us feel very comfortable.
