Definitely a must!

It was one of the best experiences and something we would do again on our next visit! Our guide was extremely nice and professional. All levels of experience are welcomed.

The horse riding tour to the beach was amazing. The guide was very knowledgeable and the horses were well-behaved. We had a great time indeed!

Not what we expected.

The car driver was very professional, which was appreciated. The horse back riding guide was also quite good. However, the horseback ride on the beach was brief. To get there it was a long dusty trail and to have such a short ride on the beach was unexpected. We were overcharged for this experience.

Operator response

We are sorry that unfortunately you did not enjoy the ride to its fullest, many of the customers love the trail through the forest to the beach, the ride cannot be longer to preserve the health of the horses, the ride is about an hour and a half.. ..

AMAZING TIME (Read)

My husband and I had a great experience horse back riding for the first time. The instructor was very knowledgeable and she was also very kind too. Something we were worried about since we are tourist was a language barrier but the tourist spoke fluent English which made the experience even better!

Amazing, fun experience

This was an amazing experience. We rode for about 2 hours through the woods to the beach and back. The beach was absolutely beautiful and there was no one there aside from our group - it was so peaceful! My boyfriend and I had never ridden horses before but the guides set us up with really calm slow horses so we were fine. Our driver to and from the beach was also great, he pointed out a bunch of sights along the way like vineyards and cork trees. I would totally do this again next time I’m in Portugal!

Unique opportunity

Excellent guide and horse for a novice rider. Beautiful surroundings. Small group was nice. A bit buggy.

Amazing Views and People

This experience was really amazing. They had such a kind hearted gentleman Joao pick us up from our hostel and he also gave us history on some of the monuments in Lisbon. Our guide Lourenco was fantastic as well and he made sure that we were all okay and doing well ok our horses. Overall the experience was 10/10

Horseback family fun

Our family (3 kids) had such a delightful time riding horses! My middle child had never ridden a horse before and he was a little nervous, but our guide was friendly and patient and the horses are very calm and gentle. What a great memory for his first trip to Portugal and first ride on a horse! The drive from Lisbon is a little long, so be sure to bring a book or deck of cards if you have kids, and also pack a lunch or snacks for the ride back.

Waste of money and time

I would NOT recommend this activity. First of all, after almost a TWO hours drive from the Lisbon downtown, the “ride on the beach” lasts no more than 15 minutes, the other hour is in the middle of a forest without any attraction. In addition to the above, our “guide” was looking at his phone the 99% of the whole ride. To cap it all, our driver made a mistake and instead of picking us up at our address, he was waiting at the same address but on a different location, one hour distance! They changed our ride to a few ours later and we thought “ok, they took responsibility for their mistake”, but when he was about to leave us back in town after the ride, he asked for 100 Euros. As they threatened us with calling the police if we didn’t pay, and since we noticed and you can also read in other reviews that the owner is a violent person, we decided to pay the extra money and just walk away from there. It was a terrible experience, but we are thankful we are safe and this didn’t escalate to something worse. If I could add a comment to the owners of this business, i must say that by the price you charge, you should at least have a minimum decent equestrian equipment. The saddles are not appropiate for the ride and they’re in deplorable conditions.

We accept all criticism and that's how we improve our services. Now you don't criticize, you're suspicious because you had to pay for your mistake, you're the one who made the mistake of putting the address on the reservation and you have the nerve to say that the driver was the one who made a mistake? is that in addition to being suspicious, you are a liar and that we do not admit, you put a wrong address in the reservation "Meeting point: Avenida Almirante Reis 30, 3rd floor, Avenida Almirante Reis 30, 3rd floor, Fernão Ferro, Portugal" and we didn't even tell you we said nothing, nor were we going to charge for taking a detour from the route, both to pick you up and to take you back after the activity. we could simply have given a No Show because you were not at the address of the reservation, but we didn't want your loss and loss of your reservation, we changed the tour from morning to afternoon and asked for a payment of 100€ for the extra expense of our car having driven more than 100 kms and having lost the morning due to your mistake... and you have the nerve to say that the driver was wrong???? the address is registered in your reservation, don't be a liar, this is very ugly!!!! As for the ride, the transfer to the horses takes 1:30 and the ride on horseback takes 1:30, which gives a total of between 4:30 and 5:00 as advertised, in fact, the time of the ride to horse is announced. But, you are a person without principles, I understood right away when you refused to pay the 100€ after having accepted that extra payment, and you only paid because I told you that if you didn't pay our driver would call the police and report the situation to the authorities ... you accepted the payment but told me you would give a bad review ... and here is your revenge ... you really are a person without character....
