A direct contact with nature - Really interesting hike. The structure offers different solutions, we carried out the 1h. Route in unspoilt nature. The horses could see that they were well cared for and clean, which should not be underestimated. If you are on holiday in Gran Canaria and you love horses, I think you should stop by Horse Riding Canaria. I will do it again.

Unbeatable treatment and perfect experience to enjoy nature - Fantastic treatment by the monitor Sole, who after explaining the basics and having accompanied us to practice on the track, went on a walk with us, always attentive that we were at ease and relaxed. We will repeat in a larger group of friends soon!!!

Chilled horseback walk with views - Booked directly. Sole was our guide and took us for an hour's trek across the rugged terrain. Views down to the sea and over to the airport. Horses were calm which was good as we do not have a lot of riding experience. The weather was sunny and it locations is quite high up so wear sunscreen. Also quite windy, but in no way cold. Riding hats are provided and Sole took photos on her phone and then sent then to us via WhatsApp.

Huge recommendation - Very amazing experience. I booked a 3 hours trip with trot and canter for riders with experience, but they also have shorter trips for those who don't have any experience. They are very friendly and helpful and make sure you have a good time. They take good care of the horses and the horses look healthy. I will definitely come back next time I am visiting Gran Canaria again.

Amazing mountain tour - Yesterday I had an amazing (private) tour with Sole into the mountains. The horse I had, Alhambra, was a mare, very kind and friendly and sensible. She was a great horse and she did so well! I enjoyed the tour very much! We just walked with the horses because the paths were very steep up and down and we had to be careful for them. Sometimes the paths were very slippery. But they did so well! The views were astonishing and amazing! From up in the mountains a great view to the sea. Sole told some interesting information about the surroundings. We saw some caves and she told how they lived in the early days. After the ride I gave the horse a nice shower and took her to her paddock. Thank you Sole for this tour and when we come to GC I will take another ride! I can recommend this tour very much! Thanks again! Greetings from Jolande

Mountain ride - We went on a 2 hours ride in the mountains and really enjoyed our trip. I had ridden a bit before and I was with my husband who hadn't ridden a horse before. It was a really fun experience riding through the countryside and up and down hills. Our guide was friendly and helpful and took some great pics of the two of us which she sent via WhatsApp afterwards! Thank you for a great trip.

Lovely horse-riding experience! Worth it :) - This was a wonderful experience for my daughter and the rest of us. The instructors were very pleasant and the the person who communicated with us via Whatsapp was great and even sent us our video and photos very quickly. The ride itself was lovely and the hour passed quickly. I would say the hour ride was sufficient for us as novices. The turn over was a bit fast and felt a little sad for a couple of the horses who didn't seem too keen on going back out again, but the people there obviously know what they are doing. My horse in particular and a friend's horse too were very lazy :) and found it difficult to keep up with the rest of the group. It was quite funny though! All the horses have distinct personalities :) I think it would be wonderful to offer the opportunity to kids to groom the horses a little and get to know them a little and to take a horse shoe home if they wish. Could be something extra and something for you to think about as an extra business opportunity :) My little girl fell in love with her horse and would have loved to have spent a bit more time in the stables and at the finca :)

Trash-filled route that nearly ended in the hospital - Even though Sole Lenassi (the owner) will refute our review and say it‘s not true or that we‘re bad riders, we thought we share anyways to make people aware and think twice: 1. We booked the 2-hour mountain tour and ended up doing the beach tour without being asked. Wouldn’t have been a problem for us if the tour wouldn‘t be 90% of the way on fairly ugly and trashy grounds that are really not enjoyable, definitely not looks wise. 2. The tour was set to start at 16:30 (we actually left around 17:00) even though the time changed to winter time, resulting in us riding the last 30-45min in the dark. 3. We were a group of 6 tourists plus our guide, Enrique. 4 of us were fairly unexperienced, 2 (including my friend) had riding experience of 10+ years. Due to the group constellation and the path we were on, we were mostly walking and sometime trotted a little bit. Completely adequate for the level of us 4 „beginners“. However, having arrived at the beach, the horse of my friend got quite excited and wanted to really start moving. This was not possible though and my friend and to calm the horse down, taking him quite hard so he‘d walk calmy like the others. Unfortunately and to the shock of everyone, at his 4th attempt of lashing out, the horse „succeeded“. It put his head completely down, his bottom up and kicked back with both his back legs, throwing my friend off. She landed under the horse and with all the luck in the world, the horse didn‘t hit her with the back legs and thank god we were in the area with sand and not rocks. She super luckily got away with only a big shock and lots of bruises, but this could have ended up way worse. Enrique didn’t handle the situation very well in saying „oh this was the first time ever this horse did that“ and his only solution to get back was to give her his horse which in his words „is way worse“. Luckily the other experienced rider was willing to switch her horse. Back at the farm, we were sent to talk to Sole (the boss) regarding the insurance. We told her what happened and she didn‘t even say that she was sorry and didn’t ask if my friend was okay. It’s quite sad to be treated this way honestly. As stated at the beginning and having read through previous reviews where similar things happened to other people, they will refute our review and say that things happened another way, that we just don‘t know how to ride or that we‘re drama queens. Either way, 5 people witnessed what happened on October 29, 2023, and this should never happend on a tour that is „for every level“ as they state.
