5.00Nico was great and the riding experience was awesome. Make sure you arrive early and visit with Sandra for some mezcal before your ride. The only bad part was communicating with Tao travel, they seemed very disorganized and the tour said 3 hours but is actually only about 2.
Amazing experience

5.00I did not expect to be riding a horse like I did at the end of the experience. It was amazing! It was a gift for my bf birthday and he also really loved the experience. Nicholas not only learned us to ride a horse during sunset on a secluded beach but also took us to a very beautiful lagoon which is only reachable through horse riding or by boat. We would never have know about this place without the tour. We will never forget this especially because Nicholas took a lot of nice pictures of us! Unfortunately I am not able to upload the pictures because they are too large..
Amazing riding tour in the sunset

5.00It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Silva was a great horseback riding instructor. Thankfully, I was the only one on the tour so it was a one-on-once tour, which allowed me to get all the attention I needed from Silva, plus because it was a remote and sacred beach, we literally had miles and miles of the beach to ourselves, which is nice since we are still in a pandemic. It was remarkable how I was able to bond with the horses, and get comfortable with galloping and experiencing riding bareback and most especially getting to watch the colorful vivid sunset with the horses. Silva took tons of photos and videos and ensured the experience was the absolute best that it could be. I'm so glad I did the tour and I would definitely do it again.
