Amazing experience - We had a great time on the sunset horse riding trip. Around 1.5 hours riding time with a 20 minute stop at a view point for refreshments. The staff took lots of photos on our phone and it was evident the animals were well looked after.

Sunset horse riding in Cappadocia - Wonderful experience, very well and timely organised by Eric the Guest Relationship Manager. The pick up was in time. The instructions for riding were fully explained in order to make the horse riding, also a first experience as mine much confortable and sure. Horses were cleaned and very well treated. The ride in the country side at sunset is what anyone must do it.

Great experience - A great horse riding experience in the pink valley, with a scenic route. The guides are very accommodating. The hotel pick up and drop service is good, they even allowed me to change my drop location, so that I can make it in time to my next booking. Coordinator Eric is very prompt in responding to your queries before the tour. A good experience overall.

A once in a life time experience - Wow! What an amazing experience. Definitely the best thing we did whilst in Cappadocia and would highly recommend. We did the balloon ride, but for us, this beat it! A lovely place and our guide was amazing. The horses were very well looked after and we had a small group of only 4 other people so ours guides were able to spend more time with us. They are took pictures and videos for us on our own phones and had one printed and framed for us to purchase at a very low price. AMAZING!

Excellent Tour for Relaxed beginners!! - The tour with sunset Moonshine Ranch was a fantastic experience. It's a great tour for families and new riders and they take time to explain well how to handle your horses. They also try and ensure you are each near your loved ones.
