Adventures Land Horseback Riding / Caballos República Dominicana - Bávaro, Punta Cana — Attraction in Higüey

We were very excited for this excursion but were met with a huge disappointment.

They bring a photographer and then want a high amount for the pictures. Personally, I wouldn’t recommend...

We booked a one hour horseback riding + pickup/drop off session at the last minute and we were thoroughly impressed by the experience. Pickup was on time with a good driver who was friendly. The tour was appropriate for kids and adults of different experience levels. It was not a private tour but there were plenty of guides with the group.
