We’re thrilled you enjoyed the horseback ride and our service. We hope to welcome you back to Punta Cana again soon!
The horse back riding experience was OK. Most of the ride was nice. You did walk thru a lot of trash piles throughout the trip. During the ride the horses would walk close to the barb wired fence and on the ride back 2 people actually got cut. 1 of which looked fairly deep. I think the part that made the experience all but a ruined trip was the “tourist trap” on the beach. The photo op was good and the prices were of course crazy. But the worst was when they sat you down and it was non stop getting bothered by people trying to sell you things. My girls felt uncomfortable and wanted to just leave. We ended up just ordering 2 Pina-Coladas and 2 chicken strips with fries. When we went to check out the total was $163!! When we questioned it he proceeded to show us a new menu we had never been shown when ordering. The pricing was different and he said each individual item was $20. He then showed me $109 and proceeded to charge me $162.11 on my card. Everyone was getting back on the horses at this point so we just left so we were not left behind. The other group with us said they had the exact problem with their drinks. 4 drinks and they wanted to charge them $90, again with 2 different menus. If you chose this I would suggest staying over away from the vendor area they push you too. Unless you want to be harassed and falsely charged. If the tour never went down to that area I would have rated a 3.
Dear Sarah, we are sorry for this situation. Please be aware that the food and drink vendors at the beach are independent local businesses; they do not work for us and are not part of our tour. We have no control over their prices or menus. We have already sent a team to inspect the trail fence to ensure our guests' safety. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us warn future travelers about these external vendors.
Tour Guide Was Nice & Very Helpful The Ride Was Great Horses Listen & Are Chill.

Thank you so much, Darcy! We are thrilled to hear you had a great time and that our guides helped you feel confident in the saddle so quickly. There's nothing like riding through the jungle and onto Macao Beach! We hope to see you again for another ride!
Very gentle horses, you don't have to do anything, just gently pull the reels back if you're too fast. The horses follow the guide who calls them with whispers. They put together an hour in the hotel lobby and they'll pick us up and finally bring us. We went through the bush with the horses to a small village where there was cocoa, coffee and souvenirs from Punta Cana to buy. Then we went by horse to the beach of Macao where we rested for about 45m and then we returned to the starting point. Tour of about 3h very good, recommend
