3.Horseback Riding Tour in Cabo San Lucas

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 393 reviews · 3 hours 35 minutes (approx.) · from $65Best value

Ride from a Baja ranch through cactus country to the Pacific near Cabo San Lucas. Rancho Carisuva provides hotel pickup, gentle horses, guides such as Luis and Thomas, snacks, and ocean views. Plan for about an hour in the saddle, plus transport, orientation, photos, and the $20 park entrance fee.

“The staff are nice and the views are gorgeous; HOWEVER, the riding time is only 1 hour, and we expected it to be over 3 hours. The advertisement is quite misleading. Also, the photos should at least be free, considering the price and the additional park entrance cost. They should also make it clear from the beginning that the photos are not free-my friend thought the photos were included and therefore didn’t bother taking any of her own.”

“We had a great time on the ATVs and Horses. I do recommend that Viator update their description to include the extra charges so people aren’t surprised to pay more fees when they arrive. They charge for the entry fee (which is stated in description) but they ALSO charge you $35 fee pp for riding ATVs or give you the option to do a $500 temporary hold on a Credit Card in case of any damages to the vehicle.”

They didn’t take very many pictures and the ones they did take were not good at all! So disappointing! Our guide (David) was amazing and the place was beautiful- just don’t have anything to show for it, sad!”

“Gorgeous views of the ocean and coast. My guide Gabriel was the best - I was the only one on the tour and as a solo female traveler I felt totally comfortable and safe with him. He took great pictures of me while riding. In my opinion this experience is 100% worth the cost - that being said I agree with other reviews that mention this may be more enjoyable for people with at least a tiny amount of riding experience.
