A Great Tour! - This was a fantastic experience! Arnold was incredibly knowledgeable about both the horses and the Incan ruins we visited. He took time to truly explain the culture and significance of each place and gave examples for us to better understand it ourselves. There were horses for every experience level and the guides made sure each person was comfortable (whether that meant walking or going a bit faster).

Great riding experience - Arnold is fantastic! Stables are family owned & ran. He is truly passionate about his culture & history which we thoroughly enjoyed. Ritual caves were a plus. Last minute (literally) booking was well worth it! We have never galloped or cantered on a mountain ⛰️ 😀 Horses are super chill 😎

Best Peru Experience - Arnold was the most informative tour guide we’ve had on our month long trip, being so genuine in his explanations of different sacred spaces and the way Incan and Andean cultures viewed the ecosystem. When I come back to Peru I will absolutely be coming on another tour with him. He is so good about having the rider form a relationship with their horse and truly cares deeply about these animals. 100 out of 10 in terms of a way to connect to the land and see ruins.

Incredible guide and tour! - I did this tour with my girlfriend and we both loved the experience. Neither of us had experience riding horses but we felt felt very comfortable! Our tour guide Arnold was the best, extremely knowledgeable and overall a great person. I’ve already recommended this tour to friends we’ve met in town. 10/10!!!!

Wonderful fun half day adventure! - Myself and my partner had an amazing time on this experience with Arnold today! Such a nice person and his helpers showed such care for their animals. The horses themselves were great, Arnold did a really accurate and fun way of describing their individual personalities at the start. We went for Conquistador for my partner who has zero riding experience and he was a bit nervous and I had the beautiful Tourneo, a really handsome boy I loved spending time with. The trekking around the sites is really fun, being able to ride at a mix of speeds, I managed to get to a canter which I was pleased about! Arnold's talks at each site really show a deep understanding and connection to the Andean and Inca cultures, and interestingly unlike some guides we have met he has a really cool way of putting some of the more abstracts concepts of the Andean belief structure into a modern context making it's much easier to undertake, relate to and empathise with. Absolutely excellent talks to be honest I could have spent all day listening to him talk! The trekking was just the right intensity and skill level our group and Arnold and his helper checked we were safe and comfortable repeatedly. Helmets were offered which we accepted as I wanted to try and go a bit faster! Overall an excellent, informative day we will never forget!

A Perfect Afternoon - I had literally never ridden a horse before, so booking this tour was a bit out of my comfort zone. I booked it the day before on a bit of a whim and I am SO GLAD I did! Arnold is the best, kindest, sweetest person. He made me feel so comfortable with the horses, introducing them all and letting me choose which one I wanted to ride with. He taught me the basics, and he and his colleague were with us the whole time, leading us and making sure we were doing okay and answering all our questions. His knowledge of Inca history and culture was also incredible. We stopped about four times to view different scenes and ruins, and each time he had so many stories to tell and so much information to share. He actually made me cry at one point as he described some of the history of the place. The scenery was incredible, and we were able to go deeper into the park than I otherwise would've been able to and that most people do, which meant it felt like we got the whole place to ourselves. He also gave me a beautiful bracelet as a gift at the end of the tour. If you're thinking about booking this tour, DO IT!

Amazing experience! - An amazing experience riding horses and the benefit of the expert guide on cultural and historical events of the Incas. An experience enjoyed by all age groups. There were grandparents and young people all shared equally in the entire trip!
