Good horse riding trips fill up weeks ahead; the great ones go first. Below: the 15 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Ride rescued horses through Yucatan jungle, then cool off with a cenote swim. Small group, pickup included, snacks and towels provided.
“Fantastic tour guides were really friendly and informative. Great experience riding through the jungle topped off by swimming in a cenote highly recommend”
Ride from Baja desert trails to Cabo’s white-sand coastline, spot sea turtles and whales (seasonal), then enjoy a free tequila tasting.
“Someone threw up in the van on the way there, but the van driver cleaned it up promptly. Zero tequila tasting…. Pretty disappointed with that, as it was half of the experience.”
4-in-1 Cancun jungle day with hotel pickup, 4 ziplines, ATV roads, beginner horse ride, Mayan cenote swim, chicken fajitas.
“I truly enjoyed this experience! The staff were very friendly and encouraging throughout the activities. I really enjoyed the atv riding and ziplining. I think it is also a good experience for beginners as the routes were not too difficult. The cenote was magical and they had a shallow section for people who wanted to just relax in the water. The food was actually quite tasty, we had chicken fajitas! I would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for an adventure experience.”
Cabo desert ATV trails plus white-sand horseback riding, hotel pickup, and a free tequila tasting at the end.
“I had already paid $800 for the experience then after getting to the park, there was a $25 entry fee which was an extra hundred dollars for my family then there were optional upgrades and pictures. It would’ve been nice to know all the options while booking and I feel like the entry fee should be included in the price. It felt like we were being taken advantage of once we got to the park.”
Adventure half day in Cancun: zipline circuit, hanging bridges, ATV jungle ride, freshwater cenote, horseback, lunch and tequila tasting.
“We had a wonderful and memorable time together with our friends, celebrating my 55th birthday! Everyone was so professional and friendly. All of the exscursions were amazing! We had the best leader, Flako he was very patient, kind and great with the instructions! This was my 1st time doing the skylines, not to mention I did all 4 and the bridge. I still can’t believe it, Flako was very patient and kind encouraging me to forge through. The tacos were amazing! If you are thinking about doing these activities while visiting Cancún, Do it! You will not be disappointed. Water shoes , goggles, gloves and face coverings can be purchased…”

Horseback riding from Cabo San Lucas to the Pacific Coast at Rancho Carisuva. Hotel pickup, desert cactus stops, snacks, and canters.
“This was the most memorable tour I've taken on horseback. Luis was our guide and he was such a delight. He was knowable of the land, its rich history, the animals & plants of the area as well. Luis went above & beyond to make our experience one of a kind. Rancho Carisuva also had one of the volunteers taking photos throughout and they are worth the additional cost - I am a photographer and their pricing is very reasonable. We will be coming back to ride again & also will be signing up for the other experiences they offer. We got to see a mare who ready to give…”
Guided horseback riding in the Sierra Madre from Puerto Vallarta to Rancho Capomo, with river crossings, a waterfall hike, and ranch lunch.

UTV, horseback, and sky bike combo in Cabo with hotel pickup, desert-to-beach riding, safety gear, and tequila tasting.
“We had a great time on the ATVs and Horses. I do recommend that Viator update their description to include the extra charges so people aren’t surprised to pay more fees when they arrive. They charge for the entry fee (which is stated in description) but they ALSO charge you $35 fee pp for riding ATVs or give you the option to do a $500 temporary hold on a Credit Card in case of any damages to the vehicle.”
Half-day horseback riding at Rancho Xotolar near San Miguel de Allende, with ranch activities, cheese-making, 3-hour trails, and pickup.

“The host leading the horseback riding was very friendly and gave great instruction. Would 100% go again. The photographer also went above and beyond!! The photos were amazing”
Tulum jungle adventure with ATV, zip lines, rappelling, cenote swimming, horses, and lunch, plus convenient round-trip transport.
“Viator failed to deliver our names and when we arrived at the pick up spot they didn’t have us on their list. Almost took off without us until I asked again and they asked to see an email. Viator do better, although I’m sure because of your mistake I would have gotten a refund.”
