Wonderful tour for any ability This was a great experience! As someone who has never ridden a horse before this was very beginner-friendly! The guides are very hands on and match you up with horses based on your riding ability. Despite the rain, we still had a wonderful time and the views of the mountains and Cusco were wonderful.

Amazing experience! 10/10 I booked this horseback riding trip solo, and it turned out to be one of the best experiences I’ve ever had in Cusco. From the moment I arrived, the guide and the team made me feel completely welcome and at ease. My horse was gentle and well-trained, which made the ride both relaxing and exciting.The trail itself was breathtaking! As a solo traveler, I really appreciated how attentive and friendly the guides were; they made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way.This was truly a memorable experience, and I’d recommend it to anyone, whether you’re riding solo or with friends. I’m already looking forward to coming back! Thank you Carlos for all the learnings about this beautiful culture!

Excellent Great experience to get away from the crowds even for beginner riders. By the end of the tour we felt comfortable enough to try some galloping. The staff were friendly and the horses were very well trained.

Amazing temple! Excellent guides and a unique experience! The horses were beautiful and well behaved. It was an excellent combination of going on horseback and walking through the temples. The story was very interesting and we saw things I never saw on another tour.

Beautiful experience off tourist trails with family Super nice experience with our children. Horses have a perfect knowledge of the route. We always felt confident and so we were able to make the most of the hike, the spectacular views and the connection with the animals. We were 4 adults and 6 children between 6 and 11 years old.

Worth every dime – BEST tour ever! 100% recommend! This tour was worth every single dime. Temple of the Moon and Sacsayhuamán were absolutely incredible to see in person, truly breathtaking sites rich with history and beauty. Our tour guide was honestly the best I’ve ever had: extremely knowledgeable, passionate, and engaging, explaining everything in a way that made the history come alive. He went above and beyond to make sure we understood the significance of each spot and answered all of our questions with enthusiasm. I’ve done many tours while traveling and this one was hands down the best experience yet!

A decent trip filler It was a fine trip. Easy, convenient and friendly pick up. Guide and ride were fine. What we expected - nothing more nothing less. It was very nice to be outside the city and see some ruins and have some pretty mountain vistas. Good add to the trip if you’ve done the more impressive highlights already. A decent filler.

Great way to see the surrounds of Cusco Really good tour on horseback in the hills above Cusco. The guide was excellent and everything went very smoothly from start to finish. The horses were very good for inexperienced riders.
