We took this ride with our young kids in our laps and my retired parents. The horses are extremely well trained and very safe. You'd have to go out of your way to fall or hurt yourself on one of these horses. I recommend bringing some water, along with plenty of sunscreen and a hat. The trail is very rocky... More

We've had a wonderful experience at Rancho la Ponderosa. This was our very first time horseback riding (three teens, mom and dad), and I'm certain that after this we will for sure ride again.

I highly recommend this place if you like to ride horses. They provided enough guides to assist with those who were first time riders to ensure not only thier safety but that they had fun and were able to enjoy their ride.

I had a great time at Rancho la Ponderosa! You have your own horse and you ride through a path to the North Shore. The view was amazing as you walk, trot and gallop along the beach with a group of other people! I would love to do it again. More

We had a really fun tour in the morning. The scenes are beautiful and the tour is now slow and boring, like in the US. You go through hills, on trails, walk, gallop and run - very fun! More

An enjoyable morning of horseback riding the unique terrain of Aruba. We were picked up from the hotel and driven to the place. The guide was giving running commentary in his own typical jouvial style. We had a very nice time riding on the beaches and came back to hotel totall exhausted. Do not miss it. More
