We loved horse riding! Stefan and Desi we very personable and experienced guides. We appreciated the personalized experience. They took time to tell us about the island and the horses. Stefan had rescued a stray puppy Sara. She was a doll and we wanted to take her home. The horses were very well trained and well cared for. 10/10 recommended!
Very welcoming and well run operation. Catering for all levels of ability, nothings too much trouble. The welfare of the horses is second to none. Being an experienced horseman I would highly recommend them.
Amazing experience and true horsemanship is practiced here. Husband and wife team who have a passion for horses and you can tell as they treat them with love and the best care. The horses are fit and healthy and love what they do. Don’t miss this opportunity to see the beauty of St Lucia that you can’t see by car or foot. We will be back as we have bought a time share at the WindJammer resort near by.
Wonderful ride through Saint Lucia's mountainous terrain to two beautiful beaches. Alpha was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable about our horses (Costo & Atalanta). 10/10, I would definitely book again!
The tour was fantastic. Stefon our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and made the ride safe and enjoyable. He gave us the option of swimming in the ocean with the horses but we declined due to kind of rough surf and it would be bareback (we are not youngsters anymore). He also got some coconuts which provided a refreshing drink. Highly recommend this excursion and stables
Just the most beautiful scenery seen between the ears of a very well looked after horse. My guide Alpha suffered my endless chat in a very charitable manner, and I discovered some great facts about the area. I cantered along the beach, up hills and along tracks. I even went into the sea. These horses have been beautifully trained, yet are spirited enough for an advanced rider to enjoy.
Northeast Atlantic side of the island offers the best views for horseback riding and we visited multiple beautiful coves. Apparently horses love swimming in the ocean as much as we do. Felt very safe with host and chaperone for entire ride.
Great experience and great employees hazan is a respectful person also brought us around and showed a great time definitely recommend the experience.
This was an amazing experience! The guides were so helpful and accommodating, and the views were incredible. The horses took some skill to handle (as advertised) but were very sweet, energetic, and well cared for. We highly recommend this for any horse lovers out there!
Absolutely AMAZING experience with Sandy Hoofs - really had the best afternoon galloping along beaches and swimming in the sea! Couldn’t have asked for a more authentic experience on this gorgeous island with our fabulous tour guides Arkim & Stefon ❤️
