- silkepetermann7919Seychelles50 contributionsIt was a birthday present from my husband for me. He booked the 2-hour private ride through the jungle, mountains, beach and lighthouse. It was incredibly beautiful. My horse, a highly trained chestnut mare with light mane and tail, went with me willingly and trustingly over hill and dale. The guide was very well trained, friendly, helpful and told me a lot of interesting things about Langkawi. He took countless pictures and videos of me and this great horse. The horses in this stable are doing really well. Great training, horses and hooves in great condition. The stable is clean and makes a neat impression.Visited April 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten April 27, 2024
- Alison G1 contributionBooked a 2 hour forest/beach ride and simply amazing from start to finish. Very lucky as only me and the guide (Mahathir) who handily spoke perfect English. I checked out the stables first and the horses looked well cared for and saw staff mucking out and grooming them. Horse responded well and they matched well to the rider -just be honest with your riding capabilities. Fantastic canters along the beach and an added bonus of Mahathir taking videos and air dropping them later to my phone.Visited January 2025Traveled soloWritten January 6, 2025
- Yvette M1 contributionWe can highly recommend the Island Horses. The people are very friendly, communication via Whats App was easy and uncomplicated, and all my questions were answered in advance. My daughter (11 years old, has been riding for 6 years) and I (unexperienced) had booked the one-hour Jungle and Beach Ride. While I was guided on the horse, my daughter was allowed to ride on her own.Visited February 2025Traveled with familyWritten February 16, 2025
- LaineyLiverpool, United Kingdom27 contributionsVery professionally run, horses are very well looked after and the stables are immaculate. The staff are so helpful and very pleasant, nothing is too much , the ride itself was the best experience I've had upto now. The beaches are stunning, the forest was cool and we also went to the mountain and marina lighthouse so very versatile. It was so good I booked another ride a few days later. I rode a horse called Bobby who was a very easy ride , nice controlled canter down the beach , he was a dream. Would recommend island horses from a complete beginner to experienced riders they cater for all.Visited March 2024Traveled soloWritten March 23, 2024
- Nazura JKuala Lumpur, Malaysia26 contributionsThis is not the first time that I was here. My experience with Island Horses went way back to about 10 years ago. Very professionally managed, you can see the entire team (they're family!) are in the business whole-heartedly. Rest assured that they will get you a suitable horse for the lessons or the ride. But riders must be honest with riding skills too and do not overstate. It is ok if you are not a rider at all. The trainers/handlers are very patient and friendly. And they take good pictures and videos too. Now that's a huge bonus. The place has covered arena, toilets/shower rooms. No issue with telco mobile coverage. Please book in advance by contacting them.Visited December 2024Traveled soloWritten December 11, 2024
- MarlenaDubai, United Arab Emirates11 contributionsWe had an amazing time with Bravo and Pimnienta on our Jungle, Forest and Beach ride! Our guide was extremely nice and we did our best for the horses to enjoy the ride with us. It's a family owned business and everyone is trying their best to keep their horses as well as the riders safe. Please make sure to reach out to them and pay a visit during your stay in Langkawi, regardless of your level of riding. The nature is stunning and horses are lovely! We wish them all the best and will certainly visit again! Thank you for a memorable ride❤️Visited May 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten May 28, 2024
- Horia A1 contributionI was lucky to have a private ride with the sweet and nice sayat. It was really nice talking with him and learn a little more about his life and work. I book a one hour jungle and beach ride and it was absolutely amazing. I was afraid at the beginning because it was my first ride ever but sayat reassured me and show me everything that I need to know. He even takes the time to take beautiful pictures of me on the horse. They all very passionate and working with a lot of love for the horses. Pomelo (if I remember correctly) the horse wall well behaved and well cared and it was a pleasure riding him. Thank you all for this amazing experience, I will not forget it and hope to see you the next time I’m in Langkawi.Visited February 2025Traveled soloWritten February 5, 2025
- Aleksandra4 contributionsAmazing experience also for experienced people. Canter on the beach, really nice forest walk. The guide was really nice, we talk a lot about horses but also Langkawi and places worth to see on the island. They are really taking good of the horses.Visited January 2025Traveled soloWritten January 8, 2025
- RubyThursday269 contributionsI booked a solo horseback ride (2 hours - Jungle, Beach, Lighthouse). The guide was fantastic (sorry, forgot the name - from Bangladesh). We did a lot of canter along the beach, trot on our way. The horses are well kept and trained. Pick-up service from the Danna is comfortable, only minutes away. Highly recommended also for experienced riders.Visited March 2024Traveled soloWritten March 31, 2024

We rode already few times with Langkawi Island Horses, and is one of the best things you can do in here, honestly.
The horses are in really good quality and healthy. The beach were the bring you to practice is big enough to galloping the horses, and enjoy the views.
Also the staff really qualifies, you can feel that they love what they are doing, definitely I will recommend every one to try this experience at least once. I’m sure you will repeat again.

My friend and I had the best week at Island Horses Langkawi (Jan 2023), we did the 10hr package and mostly had Trainer Abu with us. The whole team there is excellent, very welcoming, kind, patient and passionate about what they are doing.
We went for trail rides to the mountain, beaches and jungle. It was very fun and beautiful. The horses are well take care of and have beautiful temperaments, very forward and easy for a beginner to ride. The trail guides are very helpful with taking photos and videos for you and are easy to talk to, they care about your safety and that of the horses. One of the horses I was riding was slightly lame, and they quickly noticed and changed the horse. I really respect that the team does not just push the horse to do the ride if they are lame.
Will definitely be back and hopefully to try their horsemanship camps! Please support this wonderful team by visiting them! You will not regret it.
Special thanks to Trainer Abu, Sayyak, Zain and Ziak. (sorry if I spelt your name wrongly). And of course, thank you to the horses; Rickie Bobby and Liliana <3

The highlight of our new years' trip to Langkawi! Booking was effortless, the explanations and preparation were top notch, and the stables and their horses were of the highest quality. Our guide Abu catered to our different levels of riding experiences and we made the most of our 1 hour ride. We were impressed with the stables and staff, who were very knowledgeable and obviously loved their horses. We will always go back every time we go to Langkawi! Thank you Team, for a memorable way to start 2021!

Everything was perfect from start to finish. We were collected on time at the hotel, the lady was friendly and clearly knew about all of the horses.
On arrival they asked lots of questions to ensure they matched us to the correct horses. They had both hats and boots for us to use.
Our guide was excellent, he explained exactly where we were going and guided my husband and encouraged him the whole way. The ride was perfect for both experienced and novice riders.
The horses were well cared for and clearly enjoyed being out and about exploring this beautiful island.
We can highly recommend and just wish we had time to go again!

We booked a 1.5hr beginners ride via WhatsApp and had a fabulous time. It had been raining before our ride so we exchanged the mountain for a second beach near the Danna hotel which was lovely and also less challenging than the mountain which was probably a good thing as my horse was a bit of a bully! It was just the three of us on the ride so we received a personal service and were well looked after. Our leader took lots of photos and videos of us and air dropped them to us afterwards which we really appreciated. It was a superb experience which we would definitely recommend.

My fav part of my Langkawi trip! Must do when you’re in Langkawi!
Lovely riding experience through the jungle and beach with very accommodating guides and beautiful horses. I enjoyed the hour long ride with my experienced horse just galloping around. My companion, who was nervous before the ride since it was her 1st time, had a blast as well learning how to ride with a guide in hand to lead.
We also had a quick opportunity to walk about the stable to see the beautiful horses.
All in all, I would visit Langkawi again and choose this horse riding experience in a heart beat!
Keep up the good work Island Horses!

Went for a 1-hr trial ride with my daughter. Had a fantastic guide and the trail itself was great. Nice balance between the forest and the beach. Even saw some monkeys! Family owned and run and they clearly work very hard to care for their horses. Highly recommended!

Lovely horseback experience. We are a group of two friends who is not very experienced at horse riding. We booked a two hour ride. Staff are very friendly and ask us details before our ride to make sure safety. Then two staff accompany us the whole time and help us with the horse. We went through jungles, beach, and reached the light house. Not difficult even for unexperienced people. They helped us took many pictures and videos. A must try if you visitng Langkawi.
