Review of Cancun’s 4-in-1 jungle tour with ATV, horseback riding, ziplines, cenote swim, lunch, and hotel pickup.
“Everything was amazing!!! The guides were super kind and friendly! The experiences were one of a kind! The food was AMAZING!! The guides were with you every step of the way so there was no confusion. And the picture and video package they have available was well worth it!!”
Ride Cabo’s desert trails and Pacific beach by ATV and horseback, with hotel pickup, tequila tasting, and key extra costs explained.
“I had already paid $800 for the experience then after getting to the park, there was a $25 entry fee which was an extra hundred dollars for my family then there were optional upgrades and pictures. It would’ve been nice to know all the options while booking and I feel like the entry fee should be included in the price. It felt like we were being taken advantage of once we got to the park.”
Review of Cancun’s Extreme Horses Adventure with horseback riding, ATVs, ziplines, cenote swimming, tequila tasting, and hotel pickup.
“We had a blast! The entire experience kept getting better and better! Bring extra cash for food/drinks/gifts for back at the park. Riding quads through the park was by far the best part, and the photos throughout the excursion are 100% worth purchasing!! No need to bring your cameras, they captured everything 😊😊 Our guides were fun, and the tequila tasting was epic. Thanks guys!!”
Review of Coyote Canyon horseback riding near San Miguel de Allende, with river crossings, canyon views, ranch lunch, and rappel option.
“Best horseback riding experience. 2.5 hours riding through amazing canyons, streams and bluffs. Capped off with an excellent authentic Mexican lunch at a local rancher’s home. The guide was amazing and the cowboys very professional and attentive to our safety. A highlight of our time here for sure.”
Review of Rancho Carisuva’s Cabo horseback tour, with Pacific views, ranch pickup, pricing, ride time, safety notes, and practical tips.
“The excursion was great and the ranch scenery was beautiful! The horses are clearly well looked after and the team onsite were all very pleasant. The ride itself only ended up being 45 minutes and felt very short so I was disappointed to have our time cut like that. We then had to wait 90 mins after the activity to be collected by our transport so it was a 6 hour round trip for 45 minutes”
Ride through Puerto Vallarta’s Sierra Madre, cross rivers, hike to a waterfall, and enjoy a Mexican lunch with drinks at Rancho Capomo.
“2 hour horse ride, more 1.5 hour followed by good lunch, more than enough. Supposed to include a Mexican cooking class but wasn’t, supposed to include waterfall but wasn’t. Good to explore the countryside.”
Review of Cabo’s UTV, horseback riding, and sky bike combo, with practical details on price, fees, safety, pickup, and value.
“We had a great time on the ATVs and Horses. I do recommend that Viator update their description to include the extra charges so people aren’t surprised to pay more fees when they arrive. They charge for the entry fee (which is stated in description) but they ALSO charge you $35 fee pp for riding ATVs or give you the option to do a $500 temporary hold on a Credit Card in case of any damages to the vehicle.”
Ride through San Miguel de Allende’s high desert, learn ranch traditions, and enjoy fresh cheese and a home-cooked meal at Rancho Xotolar.
“The most fantastic horseback ride!! Loved every moment! A family run business, wherein a nephew picked us up from our hotel and took us out to the family ranch. There we experienced ranch living and cheese making which later we ate at dinner. The family was very accommodating to my wife’s hip limitation and fear of heights and provided her own guide to make sure she felt safe. Due to rain the previous day, the guides went ahead to ensure the safety of the trails... once we got off and walked for our safety. They also took our phones and made photos/videos so we could relive the experience later. Afterward,…”
Review of Cabo’s ATV, horseback, and sky bike tour at Migriño, with practical advice on price, safety, gear, timing, and value.
“I hate I had no pictures from the day. They want you to buy from them. Not allowed to bring phone, had to put in locker. They didn’t take very many pictures and the ones they did take were not good at all! So disappointing! Our guide (David) was amazing and the place was beautiful- just don’t have anything to show for it, sad!”
Ride horses through rural Puerto Vallarta, swim with them when conditions allow, taste tequila, make salsa, and enjoy BBQ with margaritas.
“Great Day! A little longer of a day than advertised but still got us back to our cruise in time. Quite a long walk from the cruise terminal, others caught a cab for about $25USD (Uber quoted much cheaper). The port here is a long walk to get out, you need to plan accordingly if not using public transport. It’s an easy walk, flat and mostly pathed, but expect about a 30 minute walk. The tour itself was amazing and well worth the money. They offer beginner, intermediate and advanced horses depending on your ability. Bring a hat as they charge a lot when there if required. We had a…”
Ride through Sayulita’s jungle to a black-sand beach, with friendly guides, calm horses, photos, tequila tasting, and sunset options.
“Amazing experience and gorgeous scenery. My very frightened 8yo who never rode a horse was calmed by our guide and given special attention. The pictures we got from this experience are phenomenal- a top adventure for our family.”
Review of Cancun’s jungle adventure with ATVs, horseback riding, zip lines, cenote swimming, lunch, tequila tasting, and practical tips.
“The area for the tour was very neat and well maintained, they had a bar and served various foods. The tour itself was very sub par, you do only 4 zip lines which max out at about 15ft you can go upside down which was neat! Quads are silly as they put you all in a direct line and barely let you touch the gas would not pay for this again, they also suggest you purchase a covering for your face because of the dust extra $$ to barley ride the quad. The horses were maybe 5 minutes long and literally only done so they can push more pictures to…”
