An Unforgettable Horseback Riding Adventure in the Andes! - This experience was truly one for the books! Our group embarked on a two-hour horseback ride through the breathtaking Andes mountains, guided by the incredible Gustavo. The scenery was absolutely stunning—vast mountain landscapes, fresh air, and even some wildlife sightings, including condors and hawks soaring above us. One of the unexpected highlights of the trip? Max, the company’s friendly Australian Shepherd, who trotted alongside us the entire way, making sure we had a loyal companion on the trail. The company did a fantastic job ensuring our safety and comfort, providing helmets and thorough instruction so that even beginners felt confident. And while most of us had a smooth start, our most experienced rider, Hillary, had a bit of an unexpected adventure before we even hit the trail. Her horse got a little spooked by a simple step crate, and before we knew it—down she went! Luckily, she walked away with just a few bumps and bruises and was back in the saddle in no time. After the ride, we were treated to a delicious spread of Chilean wine (with French origins), along with crackers, prosciutto, goat cheese, and milk cheese—a perfect way to end the adventure. The owner of the company, originally from New York, is incredibly passionate about horses and sharing this experience with others, which truly made the tour feel special. If you’re looking for an unforgettable way to experience the Andes, this horseback riding tour is a must! Would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting the area.

Epic Trail Ride in the Andes 🐴 ⛰️ - Had a fantastic adventure with Joaquin and his ranch team! The horses were great for beginners, and the view was absolutely stunning. Really gives a great perspective of the Santiago sprawl, as well as the flora of the region being driven out of the city. It was really warm when I went, but wear the jeans/trousers to avoid the spiky trees! Also, as a solo traveler staying in the city, hopping on the Red Line on the city metro to the meeting point at the craft market (a MUST visit!) was clean, safe, and simple. Joaquin’s expertise with riding and perspective on Chilean culture was priceless. Book this adventure for your friends, family, or just yourself! You won’t be disappointed!

Best way to spend a few hours in Chile! - We had the loveliest of horseback rides with our guides Josephina and Orlando. They were warm, friendly, knowledgeable and funny too! We got to see nature at its best including some fun with our guide dog Max. The day was perfect and ended with some great wine and a platter of fruit and cheese at the barns with the horses and our new friends. Could not recommend them enough!

Wow! A wonderful activity with an amazing guide - Wow! Wish I could give more than 5 stars. This was such a special, authentic activity for our trip to Santiago. Josephina was a suburb guide. Incredibly knowledgeable about horses, and all wildlife, but was also just a very pleasant and lovely person to spend time with. Even the van ride from our hotel with her was informative and interesting. The trail was the perfect level for beginners- not stressful or hard but definitely not boring. The website doesn’t lie- the beautiful border collie Max comes along as an extra guide! The picnic at the end was festive and relaxing. We did the 2:30 ride so the picnic was around 6pm and a perfect time of day for wine and cheese. I would do it again tomorrow if we had more time! I cannot recommend this company enough.

Must do while in Santiago - This was a great activity to while in Santiago and to get out of the city into the mountains. I went with my mum and we only had two other with us which was great. Our guide Josifina was so lovely and picked us up from our hotel. The horse riding felt safe and really organised with calm well looked after horses. We had the picnic (cheese and wine) after the ride which was great! And it was really nice to chat with everyone and enjoy the scenery of the mountains and the horse sheds

Highlight of Santiago trip - This was the highlight of our trip to Santiago! The views from the Andes foothills are amazing, the horses were lovely (and I'm afraid of horses but chose this activity anyway!), and Therese was a lovely and welcoming host/guide. Recommended this to friends who went later and they also expressed that it was the highlight of their trip.

A dream come true! - It was a fantastic experience! Macarena, our guide was very kind and reassuring, we felt totally safe in spite of not having much experience in horseback riding. The scenery is gorgeous, the horses were friendly and calm, I thouroughly enjoyed the whole experience, it was a dream come true: riding a horse in such a spectacular setting! And the cheese plate with wine at the end was an extra treat. I absolutely recommend this experience.
