Die Besitzer der Ranch sind beide total hilfsbereit und sehr freundlich. Wir hatten leider nicht die Chance eine Tour bei ihnen zu machen, wurden aber von Ihnen aufgesammelt als unser Auto liegen geblieben ist. Wir durften uns außerdem auf einen Teil ihres Landes stellen bis wir eine Lösung gefunden haben. Super nett!

You're not guaranteed to get to walk in the water (the guides need to be able to see there are no crocs or sting rays 🙃) but even the walk on the beach is lovely and they stop and take photos for each group on their horses which was lovely. Walking in the water was unreal though. Made it the coolest trail ride I've done so far 😍

My family and I all went riding and loved it. The horses were well trained knew what they were doing so we didn't really need to worry about it. We also enjoyed the random facts about the Daintree from the guide up front. Yes, my feet were undoubtedly sore afterwards but it was definetly worth it. Especially when my mothers horse decided to go bush. We got some really good pictures and some good laughs (mostly at each other). Would definetly recommend this to people who've never ridden before.

We had a very enjoyable ride, even my husband that had never ridden a horse felt relaxed and comfortable on the well cared for horses. Jackie and the other team rider made the experience pleasurable with their knowledge of the local area. Thank you :)
