We loved our horse back riding experience. The guides were phenomenal! They ensured that each person felt comfortable and enjoyed the two hours.

For 2 nervous beginners, the trainers couldn't have been more welcoming and professional in putting us at ease and pucking just the right horse for us.
Add to that, the stunning scenery in one of the most areas in Ireland and it really was an unforgettable experience and I can't wait to do it again sometime.

It was AMAZING!!! The guide was very knowledgeable, explained lots of history of the land we were riding on, and great with the horses. Absolutely amazing scenery of course. We even got a chance to canter, which was probably my favorite part, and I absolutely I loved my horse! His name was James, best horse ever!!!

I would do this tour every time I visit Ireland, if I'm being honest. The horses are beautiful and very well trained, there are several guides who join you to ensure your safety and that you feel comfortable while riding. They're all very polite and informative, giving us some of the history of the park and the background of the animals we saw along the way. As a beginner, they taught me in a way that made me feel very comfortable riding and felt as though it came naturally. 10/10 would have everyone do this experience when they visit Ireland if they can.
