    Isabella from atop a horse
    Perfect morning for a horseback ride. Fun to see the ocean and beach from a different perspective. Staff all very friendly from check in through the ride and dismount. Stella was a good horse and enjoyed her snacks. Would recommend with no hesitation.

    The Best Beach Trail Ride in Puerto Rico!
    It was so great getting 'back in the saddle' after a few years and the horses were excellent (well trained, responsive & smooth gaited!)! Albert was a great guide, and the 2-hour private tour was excellent for experienced riders (loved the canter on the beach!). Stunning scenery and would def. go again when visiting Rincon in the future!

    Great Experience! We love Javier!
    Tropical Trail Rides is a gem we’ve had the pleasure of visiting twice—once when they first opened and now over 20 years later. Both experiences were phenomenal. The horses are beautiful and clearly well-cared for, and the trail and beaches are simply breathtaking. The staff are especially wonderful, with our guide, Javier, making our most recent trip truly exceptional. Bilingual and incredibly knowledgeable about the island, Javier shared fascinating insights throughout the ride and was wonderful with the children. His warm, engaging personality made the journey even more enjoyable, and his passion for both the horses and the island shines through in every interaction. Highly recommend!

The entire experience from start to finish was absolutely incredible. This was my family’s first time ever horseback riding and I was nervous and they explained everything very patiently and assured us everything would be smooth . The entire ride was beautiful and the horses were wonderful and gentle . When we stopped at survival beach to rest and take pictures it was so beautiful. Our guide Doug was an absolute riot , he was very positive and funny , and kept us laughing . I liked that Doug kept checking on us inexperienced riders and made sure we were comfortable and at ease . I would highly recommend this tour .

My 3 year old daughter and I went on the ride together. Our horse was incredibly well behaved and our trail guide was perfectly attentive to our needs. We had so much fun! My little daughter has asked to go again and again!

This was my second time riding with them and I can’t wait to do it again. The horses only do 2 rides a day and get bathed and eat like 4 times a day so that made me happy. If you go ask for Doug he’s hilarious and our ride was so fun. Every time you start trotting his catch phrase is FIRE EM UP

We were a group of 6, 5 being 1st time riders. We were all paired wth great mounts. Me being a experience rider, I can say that Tropical Trail rides is by far the best guided rides I've been on. Most guided rides your only allowed to walk...here you get to trot and even canter!!! I was allowed to take my beautiful steed Kawana into the ocean a little bit. She was awesome as were all the horses. All horses appeared to be very well taken care of. All of the staff were very knowledgeable and very nice. DOUG was our guide and was always coming back to check on our group.
If your looking for horseback riding in Puerto Rico Tropical Trail rides should 100% be your pick!!

Thank you!!!!

We had a wonderful time during our 2 hour morning group trail ride! I rode on sweet Smokey and my husband rode on headstrong Zeus. Our guide, I believe his name was Doug, was funny, knowledgeable, communicative, and did a good job at putting us at ease. We have no real riding experience and felt challenged yet comfortable as we took the horses from a slow walk, up to a fast trot! The horses are well cared for and the staff were all friendly. The view from the beach is outstanding! The guide took time to allow everyone to take pictures and we never felt rushed. All in all, this experience totally exceeded our expectations. Well worth the money, would most definitely recommend!!!

Family of 5 (kids ages, 10, 10, & 15), all with limited riding experience which has consisted of trails rides on vacation back home in the States. I personally don’t enjoy trail rides, but my kids do…however, this was a great experience for all of us and very enjoyable! Long stretch of beach riding as well as some forest riding just off the beach. We did a 2hr private ride with Doug as our guide, who just recently joined the company from Montana. Doug was great and communicated with us the entire ride. The ability to ride on the secluded beach was a highlight, but also having the opportunity to trot the horses quit a bit. In the States is always a slow walk for liability reasons, but here we were all comfortable with a trot at times which made it a lot of fun. Never an issue with the horses, extremely well cared for and trained. Worth the 45minute drive from Rincon to have better scenary and more private trails than the local offerings.

Extraordinary. Life Changing. Exceeded expectations in every respect. We will definitely be doing this again - every time we come to PR. Our guide, Doug was awesome. I (mom) had my 5 kiddos with me - 8, 14, 15, 17, and 18. All of them have not stopped talking about how surreal it was. We have been to Puerto Rico about 2 dozen times in the past 2 decades. We know the island, and this is something we never experienced. The owners take such great care of the horses - a beautiful, humane, and disciplined operation. If you only have one thing you can invest in beyond the beach, pick this. All day long. We cannot say enough great things!

This experience was one that I would not only recommend but plan to return and do again! Our guide John was friendly, humorous, and very well educated in horse back riding. He guided us along terrain That was laden with earthy vibes and rich in history, then led us to the beaches where we took opportunistic photos with our two precious caballos (horses) Crystal and Atrevida. He was attentive to everyone’s needs in the group and showed a great command over the horses that followed his lead. Hands down best day while on vacation in Puerto Rico this time around!

Great stables. Horses are well kept and well feed. Was able to trot the paso fino gait on the beach. These horses have a unique gait and it us worth trying something different.

The trail was amazing. I was scared at first because I'm an experimented rider and I didn't want to be bored but it was not the case. The guide adapted to everybody's level and was always making sure everybody was feeling good. He told us about our horses and we could see that he was passioned about his job. The horses are very well treated, and that's like the most important thing. So, thank you for an amazing ride and stunning beach! I recommend it to everybody!
