Great experience in Ensenada - Our driver is very friendly, and horseback riding is fun! Itā€™s a little scary at the beginning, but once you're on the horse, you can enjoy the view of the beautiful beach and the ocean

Fun and interesting tour - We really enjoyed the horseback riding and the drive to and from the canyon. Our driver Oscar was very friendly and was patient with my basic Spanish. He explained many things about the city and area on the drive and we felt very comfortable with him.

Private horseback riding and La bufadora - This was the highlight of our trip. Our tour guide Oscar was lovely. The horse ride was on a private beach and the views were gorgeous. Everyone loved it. After the horse ride, we went to La Bufadora which was not that great: crowded, hot, and you had to go through an alleyway full of vendors. But Lydiaā€™s tacos were delicious! Highly recommend this tour because of the horseback riding on the beach and the tour guide was super accommodating.

Great Value! - This was an amazing excursion at a great value. I really enjoyed having a private driver and getting to experience things in a more intimate setting. Our driver Chuie was great. He answered all our questions and pointed out many things of interest along the way. The meeting point was an easy walk from our cruise ship! I highly recommend!

Not the best - Not a great excursion. The entire itinerary was not explained to us. Our driver knew very little English. It took almost an hour to get to the spot where we went horseback riding. The horseback ride was good. The horses looked healthy and well kept. The ride lasted less than an hour. The we were driven to the Buffalora. The driver pointed down a street with vulture like vendors selling their wares. We did not understand that at the end of the street was the actual Buffadora. The driver drove us back and wanted to drop us off on the shopping street, but by that time we werr feeling uncomfortable and just wanted to get back to the ship.

We did not like the horse riding part - The tour with car was ok but the one of the main reasons to do this tour My daughter 11 and myself wanted both horse riding peope to do the horse riding on the beach - the horses where extreme skinny - bad fed and kept - so my daughter refused to ride - beach themselves was als bad - so huge dissapointment / the rest of tour was ok - driver was nice

just so so - The system is chaotic, the company does not have any exemptions, and the pick-up and drop-off personnel cannot be contacted;
