Went over Thanksgiving 2008 and it was a blast. My experience was as described by gavin37396, IluvJam, and Ronybaby - about 3hrs total (not counting bus ride there) with about 30mins riding in the water. The loading of riders and little bit of coaching in the corrall to get everyone comfortable on their horses took about 30mins for our group... more

Was there on march 10 2009. That was a really great day. The guides are very friendly and "No Problem" at all. The horse ride in the sea is a must do. It's so much fun and it is long enough cause it is not easy to stay on the horse on almost a bareback. You just have a little... more

We chose this as a shore excursion (Nov 08 Carnival cruise) because we wanted to have fun and see the countryside. IT WAS A BLAST! Courtney, our guide, was great. Be prepared to get dirty! Dan & Carol more

This was our second excursion with Chukka Cove during our honeymoon (the first being Zip Lining, also recommended). After a short safety session, the guides hook you up with your horse for the trip. Remember the horses name, after you ride in the ocean you'll be riding the same horse on the return trip. Bring money for tipping your driver... more

This was a great adventure. We arrived by van at the ranch without any issues. We left most of our stuff in the van with the driver. If you want the Chukka staff will take your bags, camera's, etc down to where you will ride your horses in the water for no fee. They recommend pants or long shorts so... more

There was (4) of us; ladies, and one had never been on a horse prior to this day. We enjoyed a nice ride on horseback on dry land for @ 45 minutes to 1 hour. Than we had a break while the horses were changed to go into the water. We than went into the cove and rode without saddles... more

We went to Jamaica 4-11 November 2003 and stayed in Negril. We did this trip one afternoon and it was FANTASTIC, it really was, we enjoyed it so much. We have only been riding once before in Dom Rep so are beginners really. First we went horse riding over land which was nice enough then we went riding bare back... more
