Completely magical - ! - This experience felt like a pinch me once in a lifetime - truly magical few hours with wonderful kind and experienced Raul. We loved spending time at his beautiful farm and listening to his knowledge about the horses. The route was absolutely stunning with views right across the mountains and valleys - Raul thank you for this mega highlight of our trip! This is what they mean when they say ‘food for the soul’ x

Amazing experience with Raul, recommended to anyone who loves horses and nature - This was one of the best days of our vacation! Everything went really well, the communication via Viator/ WhatsApp, the pick-up (outside the old town of Paraty as there are no cars allowed), the drive to Rauls farm (approx. 40 mins through beautiful nature with a really friendly driver whose name we forgot, unfortunately!) and of course, especially the horse riding itself. I have been horse riding for more than 20 years while my boyfriend is a beginner. We searched a lot because I care about horses and wanted an experience where the animals are treated well. Here, we found it! Raul's family lives in the area since 4 generations and he handles his animal with love and respect - they are like family to him. Also, he did a great job in helping my boyfriend on the horse and with handling his horse. We spent enough time to get familiar with the animals, then also went a bit faster. Raul showed us many native plants and explained a lot about the area, nature and horses while we we riding across the hills. It was such a pleasure to spend the time on his farm! The picknick was very nice, too, with great food and a view that leaves you speechless. Our favorite moment was going bare back on the horses after the trip. I can only recommend this to anyone who genuinely is interested in animals and nature. We would come back any time. Muito obrigada Raul, foi um prazer!

Great Experience! - We had an amazing time with Raul. This is really an intimate countryside farm experience where you explore his beautiful farm in the mountains. He was very attentive in his instructions along with giving us good info on the farm’s history and the area. Highly recommend!

Must do when in Brasil! - Had an amazing experience at Raul's ranch. Before we started he made us connect with the horses. He explained everything perfectly. While riding the horses, he explained about horsemanship, the life of the animals around his home and so much more. The ranch is located in a marvelous place. After the ride we got a nice pick-nick in a once in a lifetime setting. The views are breathtaking Raul, our mountain friend from Brasil, when I'm back in Brasil one day, I'll come back to visit you and you're beautiful home on top of the hill. Thank you for having us and being so nice to us.

Fantastic horse and nature experience! - A fantastic day with Raul and his horses. Kind, safe horses and Raul was a calm, skilled and knowledgeable teacher who speaks good English. Our children aged 10 and 12 felt very safe. Lovely area and nature. The trip ends with a very good picnic. Can really be recommended!

Best family experience in Brazil - We are a Norwegian family with 2 children ages 8 and 11 who has never really had much experience with horseback riding or horses for that matter. But after reading Raoul’s amazing reviews, we decided to try this new experience as a family, and what a great decision that was! We loved every second of it! The horses was just amazing, well trained and patient. Raoul was just wonderful teacher with so much knowledge about the horses and the wildlife surroundings.
Horseback riding up the mountains was one of the most breathtaking experiences I had ever had in my life ( I even shed a tear by the beauty of my surroundings!). My children still mentions how much they miss their horses Universe and Chocolate.
I cannot recommend Raoul and his beautiful horses enough, plus he speaks good English!
This is a memory for life that we as a family will cherish forever❤️ Thank you Raoul for this amazing experience.

Breathtaking experience - Wow! It was a breathtaking experience. What a wonderful man Raul is who has turned his passion into his profession. He is patient, attentive and sweet. Just like his horses. We had a fantastic afternoon including a picnic which was delicious. I recommend everyone to go horseback riding with Raul for an afternoon. Even if you have no horse riding experience at all, just like us. Thank you Raul! If we are in Paraty again we will definitely come back!

Awesome! - It was a really great tour. We had never been on a horse before, but Raoul knew how to handle this well and was super kind to the horses and to us. It was a great afternoon with a nice lunch and fantastic views.
