This is an incredible experience of horseback riding through Playa Minas/Puerto Viejo and surrounding beaches and mountains. This experience has the unique combination of having a snorkel experience together with the thrill of galloping with our beautiful and healthy horses through the paths, beaches, and Costa Rican dirt roads.

You can't get any closer to nature while you meet your wild side horseback riding through the jungle. Monkeys, birds, snakes and marine life are just some of the animal species you might see!

What To Expect

Playa Grande Shuttle & Tours

Avoid the ocean crowd and take a surf lesson with us in Playa Grande National Park, a quiet, lonely and relaxing spot inside the Leather Back Turtles home. Whether you are an intermediate, advanced or beginner surfer, this is the perfect place for catching some world-class waves! The lesson will start with a 10-minute surf theory and safety instruction and the remaining time will be in the water. Playa Grande has one of the best beach breaks in the country, so there will be waves for every level of surfer! Our local instructors know everything about this beach and will help you catch some amazing waves, gain confidence in the water, or polish your technique.

Best concierge company ever! We had a large group of girls come to Playa Grande and needed help with airport transportation, surfing, private sailing tour, massages, groceries and local information. Ariel and his team were by far the best staff I've ever worked with after many years of traveling. They are so responsive and kind and made everything SO easy for us. From someone who works in the hospitality industry I could not be more impressed by Ariel and Playa Grande Shuttles & Tours. We will definitely be back and will use them again!

HIGHLY recommend this company. Ariel can organize a complete itinerary for you. We had 16 girls and everything went super smooth. He organized everything: airport transfers, groceries, surf lessons, and boat tour. All his guides were all so fun (Erikson, Jorge, Brian, Victor, Ariel and more!) Everyone had an absolute blast. We loved every minute. Costa Rica is amazing....Pura Vida!
