I went horseback riding with my parents and I thought the horses were really well cared for. I rode Bella, and at the end I gave Pipen some cuddles. They’re so cute! 😍
An incredible experience — horse riding at the meeting point of two UNESCO World Heritage sites. The Daintree Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef are simply a dream. The horses are beautiful, gentle, and it’s obvious they’re extremely well looked after.
Response from the owner:Thankyou Ines for this review. We are very glad you loved your ride. It is pretty special riding between two World Heritage Sites. Bella is loving that Cuddle! Thankyou Again.
Wonderful experience- the guide was super knowledgeable and all staff were lovely and really professional. The horses were gorgeous and you could tell they were well looked after. Great for a first time rider like myself as the horses were really gentle. I didn’t want it to end ☺️ thanks so much team!

As beginner horse riders we enjoyed the experience. We felt safe and our confidence grew as the ride progressed. It was an interesting transition in scenery from farm to rainforest and beach. Just do it 😀
