Been around the world and I, I, I...I have tried many horse-riding experiences around the word, (my wife is horse crazy and just books them up!). I can honestly say this was Simply the Best, by a long, long way.
The horses were alive and open to being controlled and after the group split in two, the slightly more adventurous group were treated to some trotting.
And OMG, the views while you are riding are soooooooooo amazing. We were lucky in that it was a lovely sunny, still afternoon and it had been snowing the day before so the sunset over the white was totally breath taking. (I'm not sure it would be so great without the snow but probably still good.
They supply all in one body suits to wear over your clothes so we were nice and warm (although my feet did get a little chilly)
Super great horses, and our guide was excellent.

Ishestar was awesome. The experience was so pleasant, everyone was nice and accommodating, the horses were beautiful and the facility was very comfortable. Our leader, Patti, was super nice and took us at different speeds as comfortable.

Absolutely loved this excursion! I’ve had a horse in America for almost 20 years. These horses were a brand new experience for me. They are beautiful and have such unique gates. I went with my friend who was a beginner rider and she loved it as well. The staff are so nice and helpful and the horses are very responsive. The landscape is gorgeous and on a clear day you can see all the way to the mountains and the active volcano. 10/10 would do again!
