We had a wonderful ride and the company was so accommodating of my husband and I being at different experience levels. The views were lovely and we had the opportunity to canter if we wanted. The guides were really friendly and welcoming and we had a lovely snack afterwards too.

The ride was extremely pleasant. The path is rustic but beautiful to experience alone, as a couple or in a group. The guides prepare very well before the ride, before starting they noticed that my partner was wearing shorts and that the saddle would irritate her so they gave her a sheet to avoid discomfort (10/10). The guides also have good knowledge of the area covered and the surrounding areas visible from the viewpoint, answering any questions.

They provide a snack at the end of the tour that goes down very well. excellent service.

Easy Coordination. Comfortable path between city and destination. Friendly and knowledgeable driver.

We only had problems with the payment platform (viator) but that was a PROBLEM WITH THE PLATFORM, IT WAS NOT A PROBLEM WITH THE GUIDE, this does not detract from the beautiful tour!

This was a great options for our family, including two girls: 10 and 13. The horses were pretty well behaved. The path wasn't very steep but had parts that had enough of an incline that the horses moved slowly at points. The view at the top was amazing. The English translator that came with basically made the trip, she was hilarious and added a lot of fun for everyone. The tour guide was effective, but terse, and when the ride was over we were given a brief snack and promptly sent on our way. The ride from downtown Bogota had much construction and we spent likely 5+ hours in the car that day. The lunch we had afterwards was about average, the restaurant staff was very nice.

If you visit Bogota please consider taking this tour! It’s fairly small, so it’s very personal. The guide Lola is very friendly, the horse handler is skilled, and the horses behaved very well. I have no experience with horses and it was no issue! The view in the mountains was beautiful. It’s a very relaxed tour, a nice way to experience some nature and mountains around Bogota. The snack and drink at the end are delicious! It’s only about 4 hours total so you can easily plan time for shopping or exploration around the city on the same day. 100% recommend anyone to do this tour!

My sore bottom. Had a rough riding horse. Bad saddle. I am a very experienced rider and would never ride this way again.

Great experience with beautiful views. Horses are well loved, gentle, and steady but spritely. Enjoyed the relaxed family atmosphere.

A nice experience of horse riding.
It was a bit rainy when we were there but we still made it.
I liked the landscape. The horses were very cute, we even did a little galloping.

Our guide, Andres, was very friendly and personable. He provided a lot of interesting facts and conversation on our way to the farm. That continued on the horses too! Nice area with great view.

What an incredible way to view the reservoir that helps supply water to Bogota! A beautiful two hour ride through a small part of the Andes, no prior riding experience required (though if you have some they're happy to let you take a slightly more adventurous path!) with stops along the way to rest and take photos at scenic spots. If you request an English-speaking guide you'll be sure to have someone to talk with you about local sights and the people/plants who live in the area. We had a wonderful experience!
