We ate a great lunch at a wonderful restaurant. Capped off our trip with horseback riding on the beach. Overall, a grate day that was well worth the price.

5.00Darran was our guide for our trip to the Beach horse ride and East Coast of the island trip. He greeted us with a smile and a warm welcome. He was very knowledgeable, pointing out all the places of interest as we approached. He answered all of our questions and most importantly, he drove safely 😀 . Five stars for the guide, the trip content and value for money.
