Huge thanks to the team for being patient! They messaged me the pickup time late at night and I missed it, but they called the next day and waited for us even though we were late. Super helpful. The 2-hour ride was plenty—if you aren't used to riding horses, your legs will definitely feel it! The route was okay; we got some beach photos, but it wasn't the most amazing scenery ever. Just a heads-up: they really try to sell you stuff at the end. The photo packages are pretty costly, and they also tried to sell a "mystery" drink they claimed was an aphrodisiac lol. It was a fun experience, but just be ready for the sales pitches!

I believe his name is Pedro, he's the older handsome gentleman that runs the show there at the ranch, that man knows his stuff, I felt very safe , riding the horses with him guiding. Bathrooms are so clean!!! Everyone working on the ranch has good customer service. There's also another guy working there, can't remember his name BUT he has 9 kids ALL girls, make sure you give that man a BIG tip, we all know how expensive girls are 😁
The pickup was an hour late. Then, before we road horses, we were solicited like we were at a flea market. It was not an experience I expected nor am I interested horses not in good condition they push you to buy souvenirs from the shop I don’t recommend this experience we had a really a bad time
It was a good tour however the tour was very dirty - the beach was full of seaweed and there was a hotel we passed through with construction and a lot of rubbish on the ground. I would advise for them to change the route during seaweed season just as it is not a scenic visit.
Very unfortunate, but the tour guide NEVER showed up and sent me a message that there were no hotel listed; however, the hotel WAS indeed apart of the description of the tour. Family was super disappointed 😞 I did rebook with the resort and experience was GREAT!! I have ALWAYS booked through Viator amd ALWAYS have positive experiences, so I am hoping that this is a anomaly.
They’re the best! The tour was great, it was an incredible experience. Horse riding on the beach while watching beautiful landscapes, the sea, palm trees.. is something that you need to experience. Also, staff was very professional and helped me to get to the airport, because the tour took a bit more than expected. They are just the best!
Great experience and good communication. Horses are well trained and behave. Guide was very helpful.
They never showed up to pick us up. Then when calling they never answered the phone. Called viator and now waiting to see if the tour will refund the money.
I never been on a horse but I felt like I have been riding them for years. Everyone was very helpful and kind. Coco Bonga(the horse) was feisty and didn't like being in the back of the pack lol. The horses are very trained and know the routine. Great time!!
The GOOD: horses were very nice and part of the trip by the beach was fun. Hope transfer was on time and very comfortable. The BAD: we booked a 2 hour horseback riding experience, the actual ride was just about one hour. Rest of the time was spent with them showing us the gift shop and forcing us to buy souvenirs and pictures. Staff were not friendly and a lot of the path was a dirty old beach with dead trees and weeds. The staff were not kind to the horses or to the people who weren’t interested in buying their offerings.
I really enjoy this excursion. It was my first time horseback riding, the memories made are priceless! I got sick during this excursion, however, I will do it again…
Really nice walking along the beach, and they Came right on time! They also offered water and took Pics
Unprofessional!! After booking my excursion I heard nothing from the operator, I personally had to reach out to them and ask when my pickup time is. The operator then responded at 2:34!! and said my pickup time was at 1:55 and TOLD me, not asked TOLD me that I have to do it tomorrow. I was unable to do it the following day because I would be leaving. Wasted my time and my money and I now have to wait an entire week for an refund. The lack of remorse and apology’s was very distasteful! I wouldn’t recommend simply because of the lack of communication.
Amazing experience Driver was on time to pick us up and drop of back. We were picked up with one other couple so it was more private. Along the horseride we merged with another group which was ok for me, I didnt mind. It does get a bit crammed with the other 10 or so people when navigating through more narrow roads but all in all it was a great experience. Bring bug spray and sun screen if you need it. The ride is a good 1.5-2 hours. The horses all have different personalities. My horse was a stubborn bully while my wifes was a star pupil who was gentle and followed instruction. We got to dismount halfway and took that oppertunity to take pics of/with the horses. You can bring a small bag with water and a cell phone but the backpacks are kept in lockers. Would definately do it again.
Our horseback riding journey through the Dominican rainforests and beach was nothing short of enchanting. It allowed us to connect with nature, create lasting memories, and appreciate the simple joys in life. This experience will undoubtedly remain one of our most cherished family adventures. The tour guides were amazing!!
Beautiful scenery on the beach. Very fun ride. All the guides were very entertaining. Would recommend this company.
I have to break this review down into two pieces one was the transportation and the second was the actual expedition. The people at the ranch were super friendly, very helpful. The horses were nice and very patient with beginners and they provided bathrooms and water and I have to say we had a great time there. The trails along the sandy beaches were gorgeous and at the end there was a pitch to sell photos but it wasn’t very big pressure. The transportation there on the other hand was terrible. We first booked our excursion for 3 o’clock time and the driver showed up at 8:30 in the morning asking where we were and he left without us so we didn’t actually go on the day we were supposed to. Second they would refuse to drive up to our hotel lobby and make us walk all the way out onto the road to get picked up and even our security guys didn’t know why they wouldn’t come in because all the other excursions come right up to the reception. our second attempt at getting transportation out there had us walking all the way out to the road again and they didn’t show up on time after being 15 minutes late I had to call the tour operator and asked them where they were and he sent another driver. My suspicion is they forgot about us again. we eventually got there but we got there late because our driver was super slow. And when it came to pick up, our driver didn’t even show up on time to pick us up so we had to bum a ride with another Excursion to get us home. overall the ranch was very nice and we had a good time I suggest getting rid of those drivers that you used and get better drivers because that soured our whole review on this.
The horseback ride on the beach was great :) My kids had never ridden on horseback before and our guides made sure everyone was comfortable. The horses are gentle enough and essentially know to follow the lead horse, so there wasn't too much need to re-direct them to stay with the group. I saw some reviews for other groups where people needed steps to get onto the horse and some of the other companies didn't have them...so just in case...wanted to let you know that this company does have them if needed :)
Had a very beautiful experience. My first time riding a horse. The tour guide held the rope for me and guided my horse throughout the tour. It was very amazing Aba I enjoyed the ride every step of the way. We had enough opportunities to take our own pictures even though they took a lot of pictures for us to buy. They helped us with our own cameras too. All staff have excellent customer service, very friendly and informative. I’ll visit again and recommend to a friend
The horses are so sweet. It was a lot of fun but the beaches do seem like they are abandoned. The other thing I will say is that I am still sore 4 days later from their saddles they are not too comfy. And they try to push pictures and other souvenirs on you but that is anywhere in Punta Cana because you're a tourist. Other than that pretty good time.
The horse were trained very well. The instructors were very attentive. The pickup time was good. Pictures available to purchase (cash) right after the tour.
We had a great ride. The guys were really great and patient with us. Make sure you use some real bug spray before riding.
Jungle was not a jungle. Beach was very dirty. I was expecting a beautiful clean beach. Crew was very kind and helpful. Pictures were extremely expensive.
My experience was very memorable! From the time we arrived to the time we left I was comfortable! I will definitely do this experience again if I come back to DR. The cowboys weee perfect and helpful in every way. They made all 4 of us feel at ease. The souvenirs were a nice touch, while still being inexpensive. I just loved how we all had a good time despite it raining. Once we stopped at the lake it was even more beautiful, and the pictures along the beach were a nice touch. This tour is definitely a 10/10! You guys were amazing!
This tour was really good and we enjoyed to the T! Is worth every penny paid. The beach was amazing, the was stunning, and horses were well behave.
We had a lot of fun. The guides were helpful and patient with the kids. The horses were well trained. We recommend it.
The pick up and drop off was very easy. The staff was great, friendly and cared about our safety. The beach was beautiful and they allowed the horses in the water. They also made sure the horses galloped which was a blast. I highly recommend this company.
It was honestly like a dream. The horses were so friendly and the hosts were too. The best part for me was when the horse started running across the beach with me 😆🏇
The tour guides were extremely nice and patient. Would try again and highly recommend!! Ms Cocoa was a beautiful horse
We had a great time on the horses. The guys at the ranch were friendly, very helpful and attentive, it was our first time. The ride to the ranch was about 35 minutes from our hotel so I’m glad we picked the earlier time. We got picked up at 7:55am and returned around 12:45. I recommend this excursion. The ride was on a trail and the beach, wear comfortable clothing. Take a form a payment if want to pay for pictures at the end.
AMAZING!! This was our first time on a horse and we had so much fun!! The pick up was on time, the tour guides were excellent with explaining how to maneuver the horses and guided us all the way through the tour!! The overall experience of riding the horses is something that we'll treasure always😁😀 Thank you all from Rancho Caribeno
I booked this only a few hours before the horseback riding experience. The company was timely in their response and provided me with details on pickup. The driver was very punctual and was there at the time I was given. The horses were very kind and gentle, making this an experience someone who has never been on a horse can do. My family and I enjoyed taking a break at the beach to take some photos and to enjoy some fresh coconut. The staff at Rancho Caribeño were all very kind, and if I am ever in Punta Cana again I would book this excursion again.
I wish we were able to get off the horses on the beach where we took pictures. Instead we got off at another part where the water wasnt as clear/blue . Other than that I had a great time , the horses were gentle and sweet .
We were a family of 7 with 6 people who had never been on a horse before including 2 young children. The guides were patient with us and very helpful. One person in our group needed to end their experience mid tour and the company was very accommodating by sending a vehicle to come retrieve her while the rest of us continued on. I would definitely book with this company again.
Tour guides were very helpful and friendly. The kids enjoyed their first horse ride. Definitely recommend, take cash they don’t take credit card payment
Primero tuvimos problemas con el operador, que no quería q el transporte nos recogiera en el lobby del hotel, decía que como eran empresa externa no podían entrar , Mentira es para ahorrar tiempo solamente!!! Todas las empresas entran a buscar a los clientes!!!, quería q saliéramos a la calle. Le dije que no !!! Luego el nos pasa la hora mal , cuando lo llame q estábamos esperando me dijo que la excursión ya había empezado!!! Al final entendió que fue su error, no lo quería reconocer. Nos cambió de día y el transporte nos buscó x el lobby del hotel como todos. Todo normal y perfecto. La excursión es aproximada una hora de ida (45 minutos) y el regreso , paramos para fotos y descansar en un punto . La ida es x la playa casi todo el camino, al regreso, más por calles y bosque. Los guías perfecto, el lugar donde salimos 'el rancho' , perfecto. Nos gustó como una muy buena experiencia!!
