Review of El Salobre horse riding in Gran Canaria, with mountain views, Maspalomas dunes, hotel pickup, riding tips, and honest drawbacks.

“A cool experience from the point of view of someone who had never tried horse riding before. A quick lesson, friendly staff, and hotel transfer included. If you think two hours might be too short, trust me — it’s more than enough 😅. They could offer more themed souvenirs though, the selection was quite limited.”

Review of Gran Canaria’s one-hour El Salobre horse ride, with mountain and Maspalomas views, hotel pickup, pricing, safety, and booking tips.

“Both me and my 12-year-old daughter really enjoyed the excursion. The horses were gentle and well cared for. The two young women who were guiding communicated well and made sure everyone was happy and knew what they should be doing. Beautiful scenery. Even though we were out for a full hour, I wish we’d done the two-hour trip as it was so good.”

5.Relaxing Horse Riding Tour in Gran Canaria

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 25 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $42

Review of Gran Canaria’s relaxing 90-minute horse ride, with beginner lessons, mountain and sea views, Cuatro Puertas, prices, and practical tips.

“Il personale è davvero gentilissimo, sono stati davvero bravi e il costo era giusto per l'esperienza fatta. I cavalli erano stupendi, si possono vedere le stalle,diciamo il contorno fantastico, il giro però così così: Il percorso non era in un bel paesaggio e il capofila era un bambino il cui cavallo era trainato a mano moooolto lentamente. È stato un peccato perché il mio cavallo doveva andare più lento di un passo d'uomo, e continuavo a fermarlo. Non mi sono goduta l'esperienza, non avrei messo un capofila così lento.”
