This is the second time we have visited Rancho Tranquilo and, as before, Linda was friendly, attentive, filled with local knowledge, and just "good people" all around. Staying in her cabina, it is easy to forget that there is a world outside the Diamonte Valley. If you want to try something different, take one of Linda's horseback tours-seeing this wonderful...

What a beautiful place in the world. A perfect place for a vacation away from the hustle of city life. Absolutely stunning views from the cabina which we rented for a night. Horse back riding in such a beautiful place makes it all so much better. Definitely recommend Rancho Tranquilo for a part of your vacation in Costa Rica More

My wife and I were privileged to take a 3 hour private horseback trip at Linda Gray's Rancho Tranquilo. Our horses were beautiful, well cared for, wonderfully tempered and trained , amazingly sure footed and an all around delight. The horses are only ridden every other day. Unlike other tours in the area, Linda's tours are private - it was... More

We found Rancho Tranquilo online when planning our trip. I was especially drawn to the name, as I was looking for some tranquilty. The owner, Linda, was very responsive in email correspondance. It was a lovely drive to the small ranch from the Dominical area. The horses were ready to go when we arrived in a nice staging area. The... More

We found Rancho Tranquilo on these pages and it corresponded to what we were looking for, mainly: it was a private tour. To get there, get a private cab or drive; it takes about 50 minutes from the Dominical area at low and cautious speed. The drive itself is interesting; you're really out of the tourist grounds and into local... More

Took my two teenagers riding with Linda in July and it really was amaizng. Just the 4 of us for 3 hours on excellent horses. Beautiful scenery and a great waterfall. Better to have a 4wd vehicle to get there as it's a ways from the main road. Follow her directions and you'll have no problem. Oh, and great pizza... More

This cabina is built on a beautiful mountain side with unbeleiveable views as far as the eye can see. So peaceful to watch the majestic horses grazing or the tucans chattering in the near by trees. The horseback ride was so fun and the horsing are so well trained. Linda did everything to make sure our stay was a good... More

Horseback riding with Linda was a fabulous experience. It felt like we were seeing the real Costa Rica. The scenery was gorgeous. The horses were well cared for and beautiful. Linda was a great guide and has created an amazing space at Rancho Tranquilo. I would highly recommend this experience for anyone wanting to get off the beaten path. Even... More

I wanted to ride horses in Costa Rica but the equestrian trips are overpriced. Rancho Tranquilo was recommended by a Costa Rican friend. I told Linda the kind of trip I wanted and she planned the perfect experience for me. I rode three different horses to three different destinations and each was memorable. Linda took care of every detail starting... More
