Everything about the experience was perfect. The people were exceptionally friendly, making me feel completely at ease and welcome. I was picked up on time and taken calmly to the stables. Since I happened to book the ride alone, I had the chance to explore the stables without any crowds. The warm and kind welcome made the experience even more enjoyable.

After making the online reservation, we got the pickup details through WhatsApp within an hour. My 9 year old daughter and I were collected from our hotel and returned there afterward. The ride through the pine forest and beside the sea was truly stunning. Lots of fun guaranteed! The team was incredibly friendly. I highly recommend this experience!
