Jaco Horseback riding tour was worth it. Enjoy! - Everything went the way it was supposed to. Tour operator sent transportation to my hotel. Guide was there when he was supposed to be ready to go. He made sure everyone knew how to control their horse, and off we went. Casual walk down a dirt road, then on a dirt track through a little jungle and out onto the beach. Guide took pictures of us on our own phones, and some on his including a short video, and sent them to me that night as he said he would. I recommend the tour to anyone, even if you have no experience horseback riding. I just have a little experience, and the two young ladies who chanced to be on the tour with me had never ridden a horse before. I enjoyed it greatly and the people back home are liking my photos on Facebook.

Wonderful relaxing ride - My huband and I are experienced riders but first timers were also with us and had no problems. The horses were very calm and quiet so we could just relax and enjoy the scenery. Manny was very welcoming and shared his knowledge of the plants and trees. It was lovely to walk along the beach and listen to the surf. It was not as much of a jungle ride as I had expected but still very pleasant.

Best beach + forest combo horseback riding - My sister, my father and I went on a tour with Manny yesterday and it was so fun! Manny was very responsive when it came to booking and finding the meet up point at the beach was super easy. The tour started on the beach and we were led by Manny into the forest. We saw cool plants and a sloth hanging in the tree! On our way back, having learned horseback riding before, my sister and I were able to trot with our horses down the beach, while Manny and my father enjoyed a conversation and a comfortable ride back. The whole time we felt safe and felt like Manny had everything under control. His knowledge of the area was very interesting! 100% recommend.

Cozy ride on Jaco beach - Nice cozy ride on the beach and in the forest, didn’t see much animals but the guide was very friendly and made sure we were ok. My wife horse was a bit slow but again no big deal. The temperature was just amazing on top of that. The guide took pictures and videos and sent them to us in the evening which was great. If you’re looking for a quiet ride of about 2 hours, this is for you.

Great beach riding experience - We had a great experience. Two of the guides took out a group of 9. We had a 10 and 12 year old with us. None of us are very experienced but the guides made us feel safe and at ease. Riding on the beach was amazing. An unforgettable experience.

Good experience. Plenty of alternative providers there too… - Guide wasn’t very friendly. Some horses were not very interested in walking around the beach as they have not been trained well enough Good experience. Plenty of alternative providers there too. You constantly see horses on the beach. Little side note: Jaco Beach is dangerous for swimming with strong rip currents. I thought that an activity provider would also mention this as some tourists might want to go swimming in the sea at some point
