Review of Medellín’s scenic horseback ride through mountain trails, streams, and countryside, with guides, transport, snacks, and Colombian coffee.
“As a first time rider, I was pretty nervous but this was actually a really fun activity. I went solo, but there were many people, groups and couples that attended. The horses are all well-tamed and healthy. We rode for 4 hours. By the time I got home, I had some bruises on my legs so I'd highly recommend boots or jeans - no shorts! Overall, an amazing experience!”
