5.00The landscape is gorgeous and you’ll learn about the plants and a little history of the area as you rode. Nicholas is super friendly and knowledgeable about the area and may hack through the rainforest with his machete if needed. You’re in good hands!
Best time!

5.00Best experience ever. I can’t recommend this tour enough. Nick is kind and knowledgeable, and he takes the time to teach you all the basics. The horses are beautiful and well behaved. Shout out to Nick’s son, Nick, for being a great help too! This is a must-do if you’re visiting STX 😊
Best time

5.00We toured with Nick today with our family of five. We had a range of experienced riders to a first time on a horse eight year old. Nick made sure everyone was comfortable and had a great time. It was safe, enjoyable for all ages and you can really tell Nick and his family care for their horses well!

5.00There were 4 in our group and all were novices. Nick was great. Incredibly patient and an excellent instructor. He's a farmer and the ride was on his land. It wasn't just a beautiful ride but a lesson in the flora and fauna of the island. Totally worth the price and our favorite activity of our trip.
Fun experience!

5.00Nick and his son were very friendly. Explained to everyone how to ride so there was no questions as we were riding. Our youngest rider was 11 with no experience. Nick showed her how to ride and on our way back she was riding on her own! He is knowledgeable of the area and does well explaining things. Everyone loved it!
Nice time
