We booked this tour the morning of and so glad we did. this was a great trip and our guide was so knowlegeable and great at multi tasking. As he was guiding our group of 7 he was also holding the on to two younger kids horses and making sure they were safe and secure all while looking to spot wildlife and plants to tell us about. By the end we all wished that we would have booked a longer ride.

Trip with a family of five of which two the youngest of eleven and the mother are experienced. Other three not. Guide listened well, although some of us could have done more experienced things he took it easy. Good attention for and interest in environment. Two times crossing water, some steep climbs but nothing extreme. Horses in good shape, good attention for their characters. Family felt relaxed. First impression of stables raised some questions about animal welfare but we came away very positive.

Melissa was so accommodating and the horses were wonderful. Galloping on the beach was life-changing. We love her so much we go 2-3 times a week and highly recommend her.

This was so much fun! My partner and I did this together. Jorge is a wonderful cook and teacher. Not only was the food amazing, but Jorge is lovely company. He allowed us to customize our menu. We chose ceviche, patacones, and some sort of juice with ginger. Literally the best ceviche I’ve had!

I love this tour! Beautiful scenery, knowledgable guides, safe, well cared for horses! This tour was 3 hours and began through the jungle. We arrived at the beach which was stunning. Some of us were able to gallop on the beach while others chose to walk.

Our group was a bunch of beginners and I was put on the horse named Halumi, he is not a beginner horse. A motorcycle pulled up and was talking to the horse trainer as I was mounting and then he revved his engine to spook the horse which made it rear up on me which was terrifying to which the man started laughing at me so it was a terrible start. I regained my confidence and we started out after getting no training other than left right slow down and stop. My horse apparently loves water, when we got to the water stop he started kicking water up which totally fine but the guide didn’t explain how to get him to stop and that if we didn’t stop him I’m time that he would have rolled me into the water, so again another high stress situation overcome. Then a branch snapped to which he rested up on me again and freaked out and then lost his footing to which I completely was over the whole situation. We switched horses but by that point I was shaking scared and would have rather just walked. Got on a different horse and that one tippy was much better but if he got between Halumi and his buddy then Halumi got aggressive which was very uncomfortable. The beach portion was all of about 15 minutes, the horses getting pushed together for the picture was uncomfortable for them and us. Then while our guide was making a phone call two of the horses kept going and we were told to wait, tried to get tippy to stop and he wouldn’t so perhaps they could use some more training. Overall what was supposed to be a 2 1/2 journey turned into over 4 hours and we got picked up after leaving the beach since we didn’t want to ride anymore. The horses could use more training or perhaps use ones that don’t get easily spooked and more guidance before taking off especially for the horses that do get spooked, and for the water crossing part of the trip because not knowing what to do in the moment it could have been a much worse outcome should the horse have rolled over on top of me. The best parts were seeing some monkeys, stopping for coconut water in real coconuts that were nice and cold and getting a ride back to our vehicle, those saddles felt like you were sitting on straight metal so prepare to not be comfortable sitting for the next few days.

I went on a horseback ride this morning and loved to see the peaceful and remote area around Samara. We encountered some beautiful animals along the way and the guide was very knowledgeable. Highlight was the beautiful white sand beach. The horses are in great condition and the experience felt very safe. Highly recommend to join this tour with all experience levels. Will definitely return on my next trip

We had an amazing time on our hour ride. We took our three kids, ages 3-10, and saw all sorts of wildlife and natural scenery. Melissa was incredibly knowledgable and made us first-timers feel very comfortable. We were able to book our tour less than 12 hours in advance, which was wonderful.

Very satisfied with our 2.5-hour horseback ride with a group of eight. Everything was ready when we arrived. They quickly determined the best horse for each person based on their experience and fear level. The guide took great care of the more nervous riders. We crossed two small rivers and rode along the beach, enjoying beautiful scenery. A memorable experience.

Definitely worth leaving your oceanfront resort for! I paid a little extra to get picked up from my hotel. I had ridden a horse only 2 times before and both times were 20 years ago, so I was totally new to this. They were great about selecting an accommodating horse and getting my helmet situated. I don’t have a particular affinity for riding horses, but I enjoyed this as a way to see things I wouldn’t have otherwise. We did get to a secluded beach where you could go faster if you wanted. Highly recommend!

Great horses and nice staff. The tour was very nice. Though a difficult road to get there and not a lot of signs on the Road to help.

Nicest staff and great tour near river, jungle and beach. We met howler monkeys, exotic birds, horses and cows. Also had the nicest fresh coconut water from the tree.

Wow what an incredible experience! Was the highlight of our trip to Costa Rica. Jungle Horse takes such good care of their animals and you can tell they are well loved. Our guide pointed out various plant and animal species during our ride. We rode to a beautiful beach and had an opportunity to gallop back and forth which was my favourite part! Would recommend to this tour to anyone who loves horses and enjoys nature. Please don’t support the horse tours on the tourist beaches that make them stand out in the sun all day, support Horse Jungle instead!

My daughter Emily (9) and I went on a one hour ride through the jungle with our guide Soren. It was so peaceful. We crossed the river and saw so much wildlife. Soren was amazing, so patient and relaxed with us. He pointed out the howler monkeys and a new born foal which my daughter loved. The horses were very relaxed and they enjoyed drinking from the river. You can tell the company treat the horses exceptionally well. Emily enjoyed giving her horse a shower with the hose after the ride. I chose this tour as I felt the other companies tended to offer 2.5 hour tours which would have been too much for my daughter who is a beginner. The premises are a couple of miles out of town down dirt track roads but easy to find. An unforgettable experience.

I visited Horse Jungle today , and what an amazing experience… Rebecca was my guide for the whole day ride, 7hrs we were out … From the beginning to the end I can’t rate Rebecca highly enough, she pointed out so many interesting facts , kept checking I was ok ( I haven’t ridden for 20 years ) .. My horse Evron was the perfect gentleman, sure footed , kind and safe , but boy could he pick up the pace when we galloped on the glorious beaches , Magew , Rebecca’s mount what a character .. We had a lovely lunch supplied , plus fresh coconut , the horses loved the coconut, plus mangoes a very well deserved treat …River crossings , tracks to the forest , dropping down to glorious beaches , Such a variety and just stunning .. Todays memories I will never forget .. So a huge thank you once again to the fabulous Rebecca, and our wonderful horses
