5.00Saturnino was kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming, as were his team and the horses. It didn’t matter whether you had riding experience or not — the horses clearly knew what they were doing and made the ride feel safe and enjoyable. Saturnino even walked back to town with us afterward to show us a shortcut. I would definitely recommend him and his team. We also learned a lot about the Inca and pre-Inca cultures during the tour. The horses were very well cared for, each with its own name and personality, and we were even able to choose our own horse. :)

5.00Santornino was an excellent host. While there were some communication issues ahead of and starting the tour, the tour was great, and he took lots of pictures which was helpful as a solo traveler. One thing not specified to me in advance is that this tour was in USD but was quite understanding when I wasn't carrying that specific currency.
Horse riding through Incan temples and a lot of eucalyptus trees!!!

5.00Saturnino was amazing! He gave us a full explanation of the places we saw and the nature of the place. Without a doubt we’ll be booking again in the future. The horses were lovely and they seemed pretty healthy, he even taught us some Quechua words! Without a doubt a 10/10 tour, that we’ll be booking again in the future!
An unforgettable day

5.00I can’t recommend this experience enough!This tour will fit you no matter how much experience you have, and you get to choose a horse depending on your skills. The horses are very well taken care of and lives a happy life. We learned a lot about the inka culture and history and saw beautiful landscapes along the way.
