Really amazing experience. Neither of us had rode a horse before and we were both made to feel at ease during this. Gorgeous views, a decent length walk, and would do it again!
Amazing experience. Must do if you are at cape tribulation. Jerry our guide was amazing talking about all the flora and fauna around. It is a slow walk and very safe, the good part was the ride on the beach.

Little expensive but quite nice as an experience and was out highlight in the cape tribulation area visit.
Response from the owner:thankyou for the great review, glad to hear you ahd a great day in Cape Trib
This is a beautiful, relaxed ride through lovely a rainforest down onto a beach and into the water. The horses are very well trained and cared for. Jackie and Gerry did a great job of entertaining us and sharing their knowledge on the trail. Can highly recommend this ride.
Response from the owner:Thankyou Helen! we loved having you and thankyou for the review
A thoroughly enjoyable experience. The team are professional and friendly. The horses are well trained and a credit to the owners. Highly recommended experience if you are in the Cape Tribulation area.
Response from the owner:Our team works hard to create a friendly and professional environment, and we’re especially proud of our horses, so your kind words mean a lot. Thank you for recommending us to others visiting the Cape Tribulation area.
Fun activity riding horse on the beach and in the ancient rainforest, also reasonable price regarding timing
Response from the owner:thankyou for your great review!
I had an amazing experience with Cape Trib Horse Rides from checking in to the activity. The tour guides were amazing too and took some great photos for us on the horse! I would highly recommend this experience for anyone who is either a beginner or experienced with horse riding :) Its definately a tick off the list - horse riding in the rainforest/beach
Response from the owner:thankyou for a amazing review michelle!
A wonderfully serene experience. I went on 27 April 2025 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Thanks Gerry and Haley.
Response from the owner:leigh great pic of you and pippin !
I’ve always wanted to go horse riding on the beach and through the rainforest, and I’m so happy that I chose to do it here. The whole experience was amazing – even though it started raining pretty heavily right when we got on the horses!

The guides were really friendly and shared lots of interesting facts about the different plants in the rainforest, which made the ride even more special. They also took really nice photos of us riding along the beach, and we even got to ride a little bit through the water, which was such a cool moment.

At first, I was actually the only person who had booked for that day, so they suggested changing the date because it normally isn’t worth running the ride for just one person. But since it would have been my only chance to do it, they kindly said they would run it anyway. Organizing everything over the phone was super easy and they were incredibly helpful.

I also really appreciated how well they take care of their horses. I’m usually a bit concerned about tourist riding experiences because some places don’t seem to care much about the horses. Here it felt very different. The horses have a huge field where they can roam freely, without even needing fences, and they can go into the rainforest whenever they want. They have so much space and it was really nice to see that they are treated so well.

If you like horses – 10/10 recommend.
If you don’t like horses – also 10/10 recommend.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and detailed review. We’re so happy we could help make your beach and rainforest horse-riding dream come true, even with the rain making it a true Cape Tribulation adventure! We’re also really grateful for your kind comments about our horses and the care they receive. We’re very glad we could make the ride happen for you Thank you again for your lovely words — we hope to see you back in Cape Tribulation one day for another ride!
We had a great ride! The change between rainforest and beach was so great to get a feel for all of it. Jerry was super knowledgeable and had a lot of great information along the trail. He made the ride extra enjoyable. If we ever make it back to the area we will definitely book again!
