Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Mick and Liz could not have done more to make four novice riders enjoy a ride through the beach and onto the beach. Riding along as the water is lapping onto the shore was magical. The horses are so calm and that comes from the love given to them by Mick and Liz. Don't miss this ride if you are on the island,

Went for a morning ride on 23/10/16 with Mick. Rode Out Of Africa and onto the pristine beaches of King Island and absolutely loved it. A super way to see an untouched part of the Island. Photos were terrific. Thank you Mick and Liz from Lyn W

This business in no longer available- we searched, via email and phone. We searched for another horse riding business but couldn't find any that were operational.
I am not giving this a terrible rating because it was horrible, just because I had to put something for it to go through.

I went on a 3 hour trail ride last Sunday with my 15 year old son and husband. We absolutely loved it. The horses are beautifully cared for and the owners were so kind and helpful. We suggested the ride to others in our group and they went later in the week. They raved about the ride as well. The scenery is so beautiful. It was my favorite activity on King Island. I wish we had the time to go back for another ride.

I recently did a three hour trail ride with my friend Lisa. It was so much more than we expected! Our horses were very friendly. The scenery was absolutely magnificent, and Mick's knowledge of the area was very informative. I highly recommend Mick and his wife, they really made us feel welcome and at ease, as both of us hadn't ridden for quite a few years. I will definitely be going on a trail rides whenever I return to King Island.

My husband surprised me for my 50th birthday -King Island Trail rides' four day odyssey ride with some friends. This was a dream come true and would have to be the best beach ride available in the world. Pristine wild beaches, rocky outcrops and quaint little coves, rolling grassy sand dunes supporting mutton bird nests, numerous wallabies, sea birds and the famous King Island beef. Everywhere you looked was a post card and by horse we travelled most of the west coast, part of the old stock route and northern east coast. At the end of each day we were treated to the finest King Island produce, including a magnificent six course seafood meal all by a campfire overlooking the sea. If you love to ride, gather some riding friends and book this trip- a must for the bucket list!

How much for a one hour ride ? Are you available today or tomorrow?

You will have to contact King Island Trail Rides directly. I was just a visitor there. I think it was about $65
