Best Ride Ever

5.00We booked our horseback riding adventure with Samara Adventures. They were organized and communicative. The ride was the best we’ve ever had, as it included beach and forest. In the forest our friendly guides knew where to find wildlife, so we saw huge purple butterflies, all sorts of birds, and howler monkeys. They told us about the flora, including the enormous chicken tree! We highly recommend this ride!!

5.00HIGHLY recommended. Our guide Bryan was amazing. He took our daughter on her own horse and kept her so comfortable and safe (she's 4 1/2). The views, the knowledge of the horses, the knowledge of the land, all of this excursion was epic. Would do it again in a heartbeat and it was so reasonably priced.
Fun experience

5.00Rene was very attentive and kind. The ride was easy and the scenery was beautiful. We visited Carrillo at the end of dry season so there weren’t many animals or birds to see in the forest, but we saw some howling monkeys at the beginning. The ride on the beach was great.
Great experience

5.00Our 6 year old twins were in heaven. The horses were very well trained and they were able to steer them by themselves. The course was very beautiful between jungle, beaches and howler monkeys!
Magical horseback tour.

5.00The views were amazing! The beach and jungle combination was incredible. We saw so many rare birds and our guide pointed out and identified trees, birds, and gave us an oral history of the area. We had water and pineapple as a snack. Definitely recommend!
