We had an amazing experience. My husband is a seasoned rider and I am not. Nicki paired us off with horses accordingly. My horse was so calm and easy to manage and with Nicki's guidance, it was the most pleasurable time I have had on a horse. Alyssa was extremely helpful and they were both fun to chat with during our ride. Riding in the water was amazing and they made sure as the least experienced rider, I was comfortable through the entire process. Alyssa took videos and pictures for us so we have lots of photos and videos to remind us of our adventure. Don't miss out on an excursion with there ladies,,,you'll be sad you did!

A great experience today for me and my son. I have never been in the sea with horses before, it was truly memorable. Nicki is a great host and made everything so easy. I will be back again as soon as I can. I would totally recommend Cayman Horse Riding as the one to choose if you want to feel safe and looked after. It was just the two of us today, Nicki does small groups which is great and it makes you feel special on this beautiful ride.likes to do small groups, so you feel special. Gordon was great taking lots of pictures for us and getting the horses ready in and out of the sea. Thank you Nicki and Gordon.

This was our third trip to Cayman, and third ride with Nicki and her horses. It has been 7 years since our last trip. The horses are in super shape and they are well behaved. They make sure that the right horse and rider are paired up and put you in the order that works best for the personalities of the horses. The beach riding and the swim are so much fun. We forgot to bring towels to dry off after, but that is okay. Everyone enjoys some drying time in the sun and breeze while the horses dry off to be saddled and head back. I ride, my other half does not; but he does this for me since he knows I love it.
We were able to exchange information with the other couple out with us so that they will get the videos I took and they sent the photos that Gordon took from shore with their phone. Which worked out very well for both households.
You will be enjoying Cayman in a way only a few do.

This was an AMAZING experience - the highlight of our two weeks in grand cayman! Nicki was fabulous and her horses were beautiful, well cared for, and super well behaved. our party included 2 beginners who were nervous about riding and 2 advanced riders. Nicki was able to make the beginners feel safe and confident and enjoy their experience while simultaneously giving the advanced riders the opportunity to have some fun at their level (collected canter). All of us were thrilled about the beautiful scenery and incredible experience of riding in the clear blue water. i was worried that it would be hot riding on the beach, but the stretch of beach was quite comfortable with some shade from the vegetation and a nice breeze. i can not speak highly enough about nicki and her beautiful horses. a definite MUST EXPERIENCE!!! we will be back next year!!!

This review is way over due from our trip to Cayman Islands in March. Nicki and Alesha are excellent at their jobs! I always try horseback riding on every island we travel to because each experience is different. We had a very intimate experience, my husband & I and a young girl who was with her parents for a photo shoot she was submitting. Alesha was fantastic, very young, nice, living the dream job for her age. She took so many awesome photos of us on the horses and swimming in the water! I will definitely be doing this again even if I have to go alone! Thank you so much!

Wow!!! This experience was beyond my expectations. Nikki is fabulous. She is a true horse person who cares first and foremost about her "babies". She only takes a small group of riders as compared to other venues. She does NOT overwork her horses. Therefore, they are well behaved, loved and cared for. That is obvious when you meet them. This is all very important to me as a rider and an animal lover. The ride itself is along a gorgeous stretch of beach and you actually spend a good amount of time bareback in the ocean! What a thrill!! Nikki was actually sweet enough to stop by her place on the drive back to our hotel and introduce my daughter and I to her new baby and his parents. What a treat that was as well. I couldn't have asked for a better Bday experience on Grand Cayman. Can't wait to take another ride with Nikki soon.

Nikki and Alyssa was fabulous. The experience was wonderful and this was my husbands first time riding. This was the best thing we ever did! Nikki was patient and Alyssa was amazing with pictures and videos. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants a great experience. When we go back we will definitely do this again. My experience was a 10 out of 10.

Our daughter has been riding horses for years and we try to schedule some time to find a stable nearby while on vacation. Nothing prepared us for this absolute wonderful experience. We has a blast swimming with the horses! Nicki is a terrific guide and provides us with some beautiful memories. Thank you Cayman Horse Riding. I would highly recommend taking a ride with Nicki.

A huge thank you to Niki and Alyssa. Our family of 4 with 2 teens had a terrific time on the beach ride. We’d all ridden a few times but are definitely still in the beginner category. The horses were beautiful and super chill. We rode bareback in the water which was a wonderful experience and easier than I thought it’d be. We felt safe and immediately knew we were in good hands with Niki. We will do this experience every time we’re back in Cayman.

Nicki created the best riding experience. She let us ride along the beach, swim bareback in th ocean on her well trained and cared for horses. Along the ride she shared her passion for Grand Cayman by telling about her history and knowledge. She takes her rime and does not rush. Amazing and highlight of our trip! Thank you Nicki and Alyssa.

I am visiting next week for my 25th wedding anniversary. Do you offer private beach swims for two? We are staying at the Ritz Carlton on Seven Mile Beach. Do you pick up from this location?

Our ride with Nicki and Cayman horse riding was just four people I am sure she would be very helpful and set up a private ride. They do pick up at stops near all hotels for your convenience you may have to walk a block or so at best. Perhaps contact them directly through their website for a response quicker.

Wyndham reef is the opposite end and island. I would be willing to bet she won't pick up you up. I would get a car if you are staying there.

My husband can't swim, would he still be able to ride if he ware a small life vest?

Nikki, the owner, is wonderful and will work to accommodate. She exercises extreme caution - for her riders and her horses. As mentioned by another, I am sure he could wait on the shore if not comfortable. I would not imagine there would be any issue with wearing a small life vest either. You do only go to about 4 feet but, depending on your husband's height, that may not be comfortable for him.

Will they be giving rides during the week of July 16 to 23, 2016, or do they ever go on vacation We plan to be at Lacovia that week, and that is on my wife's bucket list. There will be about 5 of us that want to ride. Thanks, Lloyd
