5.00My daughter did this excursion and absolutely loved it. She felt comfortable and confident the entire time, which says a lot. The horses were calm, well cared for, and clearly treated with respect. The pace wasn’t rushed, so she was able to enjoy the scenery and the experience instead of feeling pushed along. Riding along the beach was peaceful and memorable for her. She came back relaxed, smiling, and talking about it nonstop.
Thank you for making our...

5.00Thank you for making our first horseback riding an unbelievable experience! The crew is highly knowledgeable about the horses, one of the crew members knew exactly what to assign each rider to a specific horse. Our head tour guide was sensational, she explained with detailed directions. Everyone at Hoofs of Love was wonderful and amazing! My family and I would love to try the sunset ride on the next trip. Thank you so much!
Beautiful scenery
