We were the only folks signed up for this ride so we had a private riding tour. We rode through the cactus groves to the beach and had a GREAT experience riding for about 2 hours. Nelson was terrific and had us stop for scenic pictures of us the beach and a random goat. This was one of the highlights of our week in Aruba.

Nelson was a great guide and Max did a wonderful job telling us about life on the island on our way to and from the ranch. We all loved the experience!

Nelson was our tour leader and was an excellent guide. The tour starts off at the ranch and rides to the beach. Where you get to take awesome pictures with you and the horses. We did some prancing, walking, and galloping on the horses- not just walking. I Throughly enjoyed this tour

Wow, I can’t say enough good things. From the company picking us up right at the gates of the condo to driving up to a well kept ranch, to going on a perfect ride through rocky hills and sandy beaches! The horses were well behaved and the tour guide stopped along the way to take pictures of us in various settings. All I can say is THANK YOU!

Rancho Notorious is definitely a gem in Aruba! From the time the van picked us up at the hotel to the ride back, everything was absolutely incredible! Nelson our lead rider was very conscientious of different skill levels while riding and accommodated everyone. He also stopped plenty of times to capture fantastic pictures so you didn’t have to think about it. We were given the opportunity to gallop on the gorgeous beaches and it was an experience we will never forget! Please book an excursion with Rancho Notorious! You will not be sorry!

The Outfitter did a good job. they picked us up and dropped us off near the cruise port. The ride was pretty through the cactus and along the beach. The outfitter said the horses were paso fino, but they were not gaited, and the advanced ride included a lot of trotting. We also cantered the horses a bit. They were well behaved and quiet. We did ride on some trails through the landscape, but a lot was on a road shared with other traffic. The ride could have been much better if it could have taken the trails that were seen along the roads through the interesting terrain but perhaps it was not allowed. But overall it was a good experience.
