Such a great experience. Lovely staff that make you feel at ease when riding the horses. We were lucky enough to get a private ride and loved every minute. We were taken along a trail to a private beach where our guide took the time to take photos for us.
You can tell the horses are well looked after and love the ride as much you do. Would highly recommend to anyone.

I did the beach ride and I just loved it. The horses are beautiful and gentle and give you an excellent ride through the bush and along the beach. It is just beautiful all the way. The staff are all kind, friendly, welcoming, helpful and from start to finish they ensure your experience is safe and totally enjoyable. I had the most wonderful ride and loved every second of it. I highly recommend this place and thank you to Gunnamatta Trail Rides for your excellent service.

The St Andrews beach ride was such a great experience and was perfect for beginners. From trotting along the peaceful trails to striding along the windswept beach, the whole thing was really enjoyable.

DO NOT BOOK!

We booked an early morning beach ride and were so disappointed to have made the journey from Melbourne and no one turned up!

I had received an email (which had gone into junk) one day prior advising the trip was cancelled, however no contact was made my phone or text to advise us that the horse riding was not going ahead or explanation as to why. We tried to call a number of times that day to follow up and when I did receive a call back the representative was extremely aggressive and non apologetic. He advised that they had tried to call...I had not received any missed calls, texts or voicemails. He was obviously in the wrong but could not provide a proper explanation or apology.
Apparently it was our fault!!! Very disappointing and they were unhelpful to rebook. No apology and the worst customer experience I have ever received.

Do not book!!!

This was a birthday present for my daughter and my sister. They both came back after the ride and wanted to go again. 10/10 experience. Expect to see us very soon. Thank you to all of you.
