This is Heaven! - It was a lifetime experience, the stunning views on a horseback, this combination was out of the world, it was my first time on the horseback, kind of an adventure with trekking. There are spots where we can get down from the horse and climb a little bit for clicking stunning pictures, our guide Monica was really kind and helpful, she was always with our son, at first i thought it was risky for my 3 year old riding solo on a horse but infact he enjoyed it a lot and it was safe for him. You can watch videos on youtube of this place but trust me, relishing the experience with your own eyes makes you feel this is heaven. Truly heavenly experience.

Stunning views of Cocora Valley, amazingly intelligent horses and charismatic guide! - Such a beautiful and surreal landscape to see by horseback! Our guide Yonathan was so helpful, funny and charismatic through the whole journey. Not only did he make sure we got to see everything we wanted in Cocora Valley, he would regularly run up and down (literal mountain slopes) to get ahead of us and take the best photos! Truly a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you Yonathan!

Great memories and beautiful scenery - An amazing experience. Julio, our guide, and Cesar, our translator, were great. They were very experienced and pleasant, able to assist and answer any of our questions. The tour has 3 parts, an initial ride up a smaller mountain, then a ride through the forest with rivers, and finally up to the view point. This ride is pretty much beginner friendly, although some parts were steep so I’d be cautious with children. Thanks again for a lovely day!

Will do it again with Don Julio - Excellent experience. Our tour guide named DON JULIO was outstanding. He made the trip enjoyable and entertaining by sharing stories and information of the Cócora area and the palm trees. If driving, make sure to reach the end of the Cócora road, where a big parking space will be next to the stables. Parking vendors will try to mislead you claiming they are the closest one to the Cócora horse tour stables.

Experience and views of a lifetime. - Our guide Julio was great and the horses were perfect for us. The trails we took were challenging but we always felt safe. The horses were calm and Julio was always certain of the best ways to navigate the trails and helped us take amazing pictures.

Incredible experience, excellent service!!! - This experience was like no other. They offered to pick us up at our hotel in a city 45 minutes away. We decided to take a bus from the terminal in Armenia. They met us at the town plaza in a beautiful Jeep that took us on a 20 minute ride through the mountains all the way to the cocora valley where the famous wax palms were. From there we picked our horses and had Julio (tour guide) tell us all about the indigenous history of the area. The tour guides follow on foot for the safety of those on horses. There are two parts where you get off the horse and can hike 5-10 minutes up the mountain to see the the most amazing views of the valley. We stopped at a couple cafes along the way for refreshments and snacks. You also get to cross a river on the horses and they take pictures and videos of you all along the way for free. You have the option of a 1 or 3 hour ride. Over all the customer service was excellent and exceeded all expectations. Well worth the $45 it costs I would even say it was a priceless life experience. Thank you so much!!!

great horse - Caprichoso, very tranquil, very mansito, very sure-footed - Once overcoming some confusion on where to get the Jeep in Salento, the whole thing became spectacular. As a party of 1, I got on a Jeep w/some larger groups, which GREATLY reduced my wait. My guide, Fabian, was really good w/Caprichoso my steed & with me, he also got many pics of me (downside of going alone). The scenery was beautiful, & my guide showed me the younger palms, & also showed me the nursery for the sprouting palm trees. The ride through the paths was great. After a ride in Arizona where my horse was ornery, this experience was wonderful. :)
