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 :)

Just had an amazing ride with these guys! Such an amazing way to experience the coming together of two world heritage sites-the daintree rainforest and the great barrier reef. Riding through the lush rainforest and having trees pointed out by the amazing Jerry was a wonderful experience that turned sublime as we rode out onto a pristine white sandy beach.
I ticked off my bucket list entry as we walked through the surf, and thoroughly enjoyed it although I was keeping an eye out for any crocs that might be eyeing us up with thoughts of brekkie 😁.
We all got back safe and sound though, crocs all stayed away, and we just enjoyed our time watching the butterflies flit through the Forrest as we made our way back to the stables.
The horses are sweet natures, the guides are kind and knowledgeable about the rainforest, and the ride is everything you could ask for it. Don't think twice..just book it..you won't be disappointed!!
Response from the owner:Vi, thankyou for the wonderful review, we will pass on your kind words to Gerry. So happy you got to experience the magic of the Daintree!

Absolutely incredible experience! Riding through the lush Daintree rainforest and then out onto the beach was unforgettable. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel comfortable, no matter their riding experience. It was obvious how well they care for the horses, which made the ride even more enjoyable. Most of all the scenery was unreal. One of the best things I’ve done in Far North Queensland — highly recommend!
Response from the owner:thankyou for the incredible review Brett!
