Enjoyed the ride along the beaches of Playa Chiquita, Punta Uva, and Playa Grande. It was a very relaxing ride, ducking in and out between the beautiful beaches and the jungle trails. At Playa Grande, Bruce whacked open a coconut, and we were able to share the milk and the coconut, with some left over to bring back to our rental. Bruce also picked up a couple 'pipas' for us; young coconuts with a straw for us to taste the delicious coconut juice. Great way to spend some time, and a great value.
It was our first experience at Caribian coast, we came just for 2 days and do not had enough time for take all tour with horse, but Bruce was so nice and found time for made small especial tour for our son, that make our baby so happy!!! Bruce the great person, he love his animals and next time when we will be at Caribbean coast, we will see him again, thank you so much Bruce for perfect service.
We could ride beautiful horses from Playa chiquita riding adventures on the beach during our wedding and it was amazing!
We visited Costa Rica in May 2013 on honeymoon and spent a brilliant morning with Bruce and his lovely dogs and horses riding on the beach and forest. Bruce met us with the horses at our lodge and we had a beautiful and very relaxing ride, taking in the scenery and nature and chatting with Bruce about the local area, the horses and the flora and fauna around us. Bruce also found a very tasty coconut for us on the beach! Couldn't recommend this trip more highly, a few hours very well spent!
My new bride & I honeymooned in the area with our daughters aged 4 & 6!! We spent 2,5 Hours with Bruce and it was a fantastic experience!!! I was the only experienced rider but after 5 minutes all of us felt comfortable! Our youngest rode with Bruce and the older one with me! We expect to go again when we are in the area!! A must do if you ever thought of horseback riding! Bruce is very experienced and very eco & child friendly!!! We all loved it!!!
My wife and I have been on many horse riding trips and this one was the absolute best. Bruce was extremely personable and went out of his way to make our day fun and comfortable. Our trip lasted longer than advertised (which was perfectly fine), brought us through the jungle, took us along the beach, and ended with a fresh coconut drink. I would highly recommend this attraction to anyone and everyone who makes their way to this part of Costa Rica!
A wonderful experience with Bruce. Riding on the beach on his wonderful horses is an amazing trip. He takes his time and explains the plants and their uses.and shares his vast knowledge. There is no rushing and on the break he will spend as much time as you want, We had our 10 year old granddaughter with us and she enjoyed it so much.
We rode horses on the beach with bruce on our honeymoon. Itwas such an amazing experience. My husband and i (omg i have a husband!!) were like omg are we actually doing this?? He took us on gorgeous beaches, through the jungle, pointed out sloths and monkeys. He is a very skilled horse trainer and made it easy for us(very inexperienced) horse riders. His dogs came along which ade everything even more cool. Could not recommend this more.
I am a total animal and nature lover and this tour fit the bill for me! Playa Chiquita is south of Puerto Viejo about 3 miles. It is a beautiful area, with tons of gorgeous beaches! The stables are just of off the road, on the right side. Bruce is friendly, positive and a great person! He takes good care of you(and the horses) the whole time and makes you feel safe! All along the ride....mostly on the shade of the beach (lots of it!) and also on the actual beach, if you prefer...he spotted wildlife for us to see and also , on our break , he found some wonderful coconuts and opened them and we all ate coconut! Yum...my favorite! I will be back to ride again with Bruce! Thanks Bruce!!!!!
Had a wonderful ride with Bruce down Playa Chiquita, Punta Uva, and Playa Grande! He was able to point out some wildlife, tell us everything there is to know about the plants along the ride, and even cracked open a coconut for us to enjoy during a break at Playa Grande! He doesn't wear a watch on the ride, and he'll take as many (great) photo's as you'd like along the way! Had a great morning. Thanks Bruce!!
