Everything went great! Believe me, this trip is suitable for both lovers of galloping and lovers of a calm ride. There will be a lot of adrenaline in any case. Do not ride in the rain! An unpleasant situation occurred because of the rain and one girl fell off her horse, which brought panic and unforeseen situations to the trip. My son's horse wanted to roll in the sand, but everything went without injuries. Remember that these are animals and they are also emotional and subject to the weather. Always stay calm and listen to the instructor and everything will be fine! Horses are obedient, but they are also living creatures!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing! My partner and I LOVED this experience, the guides were so helpful and lovely. Both very encouraging and comforting, making this experience very fun for everyone! The sea kayaking was good fun, and a good workout haha but we absolutely loved the snorkeling involved seeing lots of wildlife! The cliff jumping was definitely an added bonus, and a must do! Can't recommend it enough!

It was very nice, great horses and very nice people. Everyone was looked after and experienced riders also got their money's worth. Short trotting and galloping sections were included. There was also a short break with a photo shoot. A great experience. Thanks to the team.
