Horses for any ability! - Wonderful afternoon in the tranquil and beautiful surroundings on horseback. Views of Adriatic and forest are sensational. Horses are calm and know the route so you can literally sit back and enjoy. The miniature horse and goat welcomed us back to the stables and we loved watching the horses relax in the field as we enjoyed a glass of wine and snack.

Very nice hike in great landscapes - Very nice horseback riding, beautiful landscapes at sunset. At the end, water, wine and ham and cheese sandwich (quite good). Transfer from the hotel well organized. On the other hand, only walking, no trotting or galloping because it is open to beginners.

Great riding experience in Croatia - A wonderful ride through vineyards, olive groves, villages and mountain vistas. Our ride was about 2 1/2 hours long with a nice rest stop at a beautiful spot overlooking the Adriatic Sea. This was a small group ride geared for all riding levels. Upon on return to the stables we were treated to sandwiches & wine. It was a memorable experience that we highly recommend.

Best experience in Dubrovnik! - I am so glad to chance upon this adventure! Pero, our host and owner of the stable, took the group out on a lovely ride through the woods and to a secret rest spot overlooking the cliff. The view was spectacular! Horseback riding might sound daunting for first-timers but Pero's horses are well trained and follow the commands well.

Fantastic countryside horse experience. - Fantastic trip. This was my first time riding a horse, and Barbara made sure to check in on how I was enjoying myself throughout the ride. She was helpful and hilarious. The horse I rode (Spirit) was beautiful and well-behaved, and the scenery was beautiful. Lovely day trip from Dubrovnik and nice to see some 'real' Croatian villages. Also our driver was really nice and we chatted on the way.

Brilliant fun - Brilliant fun!! Four of us went horse riding and after re-finding our “horse legs” after a four year break from our last ride we were able to sit back and enjoy the ride. The horses are well cared for and the route offers spectacular scenery. By the end of the trip I had made friends with my horse and he had even decided that we didn’t always need to venture into the path of the nearest tree or bush!! Upon arriving back at the ranch we were treated to a sandwich and a drink (oh and some time with the lovely dogs) Would thoroughly recommend this to anyone 😊

Evening Horseride - I LOVE horse riding. I have owned horses since I was 9 years old. Now that I am not working full time, as well as owning 3 horses, I choose to earn a few extra dollars with work for Cradle Country Adventures, as a horse riding tour guide in many incredibly beautiful locations in Tasmania, Australia. Therefore I feel I am well qualified to rate my experience . The transport to the venue was great with stunning views during the trip and the drive comfortable and not too long. The yards/gardens/stables/horses and gear were ALL top rate. All horses in good condition, bridles and saddles well oiled and looked after. I had stable envy too. We were welcomed and given our helmets before being introduced to our horses. The horses stood quietly where placed (untied) and our guide who was the owner one by one helped each of us mount. I was surprised that he did not do a pre-ride briefing. My friend who came with me had little to no riding experience. When our guide was helping my friend to get comfortable on her horse, I tried to let him know that she had ankle issues and could he please lengthen her stirrups. He rudely held an open hand in front of my face and told me to be quiet. So I stood quietly. He then helped me mount my horse with quick instructions on how to hold reins. We headed off, the horses were all very well trained and performed as I would expect from experienced trail horses. They were great. The views of the cliff and the lanes and the little village we passed through were quite stunning and it was quiet and peaceful. A lovely evening ride except that our guide only took one photo of each of us. Thank goodness I took photos myself (always with at least one hand on the reins) . The guide turned at one stage and told me (not asked, told in a very gruff voice) to put two hands on the reins as I was riding one handed. Earlier he had told me that the horse neck reined when we first started (those that know how to ride would know that you usually ride one handed when neck reining) . He then proceeded to ride one handed while talking on the phone, THEN took both hands off the reins to work his phone. He continued to be gruff with all of us until the end of the ride. But was as sweet as after the ride while we were eating our refreshments. In Summary, everything about the ride was excellent except for our guide. He was grumpy, gruff, uninformative and rude. He made no attempt to talk to us or inform us about our surroundings or the history of the area. Looking at the reviews, Barbara (great name) seems to have had great reviews, and you should request her as your guide so that your experience is not adversly affected by rudeness.
