It made me curious looking over the reviews for this adventure: the OWNER was mentioned in the first sentence of almost every review. The ride, scenery even the horses came after the mention of Marvin. After a short time with Marvin we could easily see why. This gentleman is so great to be around with his knowledge of Costa Rican history, local flora and fauna and the love he has for his horses. We almost forgot we were having the best ride of our lives...almost. The horses we rode were so well mannered (cookie and Alma....I'm horrible with names) and gentle while still easily managed while taking in the views and not fully paying attention to the fact youre supposed to be operation the reins. We had a great time that a review can't to justice to. Do yourself a favor, see this country in a way not many can or will bother to, get in touch with Marvin and savor the adventure! Pura Vida!!!

马尔文是我见过最好的骑马导游!去年我和我的女儿(当时4岁)在蒙特苏马的艾伦平托(El Pinto)玩得很愉快,希望有一天还能再来。我强烈推荐马尔文因为他十分关心我们的安全性和舒适性,和我们热情的聊天,逗我们开心,一路上向我们介绍景点的信息。我的女儿到现在还记得我们的马叫“尼飕”(Niso),我们在马背上很悠闲;平稳、安静。我女儿是第一次骑马......我们都印象深刻。老板很亲切(英语说得很棒),我们休息的时候马尔文给我们一些茶点,我们吃了凤梨派,骑马很棒!可以找找别的骑马的地方;如果选择艾伦平托(El Pinto)的话,你不会后悔的。

我非常喜欢这次的圆月骑行。这次活动下午很晚的时候才开始了,然后就直接冲向了瀑布,那里有小吃,而且在回到沙滩之前,我们还有时间来探险。和El Pinto一起来这里很不错,因为这些马很敏锐而且导游很照顾动物就像照顾人一样。我要强烈推荐这里。

My girlfriend and I had lovely experience with Marvin and his horses as we toured around the scenic countryside outside Montezuma. He was easy to coordinate with and sent a driver to retrieve us from our hotel who brought us directly to the start of the tour. Marvin was there waiting, casually grazing his horses just next to a local grocer. With pineapple and water in hand, he loaded us onto our horses and off we rode. It quickly became clear that Marvin had a very deep love for his horses, Costa Rica, and the nature surrounding us. We chatted the entire time about Costa Rican history and politics including the humane treatment of animals and all the various uses of coconut milk. Marvin grew up riding horses, and it was clear from the very beginning just how comfortable he was with his animals and how much he cared for them, emphasizing his commitment to resting them appropriately after each ride. Our ride took us through jungle, a small stream, lavender fields, and beautiful views of the mountains. This was truly a highlight from our trip. The horses, Pinto, Cookie, Niso and Romeo are quite the crew of charmers! Don't miss out on this fantastic experience!

What an amazing experience. Our guide Marvin was extremely helpful, professional and friendly. My gf and I did the evening trip. Riding up and down the trail can be intimidating but if you listen to your guide and trust the horse, you will be fine. Thank you again Marvin!!- John and Nicole (NYC)

我应该从哪说起呢?马文使我度过了今生最难忘的一晚。我先从大概的说起,然后再说具体的细节。他会提供给你你希望的最人性化的、最贴心的、最独一无二的体验(骑马穿过哥斯达黎加一点也不特殊了)。他对他的马很好,把他们放在第一位,但是同时让游客骑得很安全,并且告诉我们很多信息。我是在网站上(@AZURAMSmom's) 看见这个地方的--完全同意她的观点!我们从卡布亚(Cabuya)出发,我和男朋友、马文一起,我们沿着路向灌木丛骑去。我们骑了两个多小时后,差不多穿过灌木丛,翻过山脉,沿着国家保护基地,从半岛的一边骑到另一边的妮可雅海湾(Nicoya Bay)。我们到达海滩后,马文照看马,给我们时间沿着海岸走走,在岩石上坐坐看日落。我们看见超美的风景后,又朝马走去,因为我们计划吃晚餐,还要骑两个多小时才能回去。马文问我们想去哪里吃晚餐然后告诉我们说“这个地方更好”,然后指指他的左边。这时我的男友把我拉到一边,告诉我他爱我,我是他最好的朋友,他想和我度过共度此生,然后单膝下跪,向我求婚。然后我看见我们的左边岩石上有一张小桌子,有一些兰花花瓣和纸灯,旁边是一个小篝火,一个私人餐馆在海里捉到龙虾给我们做晚餐。我们一边品着香槟,一边沉浸在眼前的美景中,我不停的瞥戴在我左手上那颗亮闪闪的珠宝。马文一直等到我们结束,我们身后有一群小马在沙滩上小跑。我们原路返回,伴着月光,吵猴在黑暗中直勾勾的盯着我们,我非常感谢他帮我实现了这一切。是谁帮我们玩得这么愉快呢?一个词来形容远远不够,但是还是太惊喜了。我永远也不会忘记的。如果你想做点特别的事情-来这里吧!!!马文真是太好了。克里斯汀和弗勒迪,芝加哥

We made a visit to Montezuma - loved this little town and while having a little bite to eat booked a tour for a horseback ride- my boyfriend had wanted to make my 50th a special day and knew how much I had wanted to ride a horse while in Costa Rica. Initially I had hoped it would be on a beach, well my view of where the best place to ride has been forever changed! Marvin, our guide and owner of El Pinto, took us up into the forest; to the tops of the mountains and down to a serene river bank. The views were breathtaking; a neverending display of rolling green lush mountain tops .....the trail down to the river under the canopies was spectacular sights and sounds have marked themselves pemanently in my mind... Butterflies the size of my hand! This is a ride I will never forget - it was beyond what I had expected - I recommend this to anyone! Marvin is really genuine and will take any experience of rider and give them the ride/tour of a lifetime :) we will be back!!! Ola-VidaJolanta and Chris

In agreement with all the wonderful reviews. Also... Make sure you ask for Marvin! If he's not your guide, you're not riding with El Pinto. His horses are well-trained and wonderfully cared for. Not sure what was the best part of the day: riding in the beautiful hills or getting to know Marvin, a kind and knowledgable guide.

Our ride with Marvin and his horses was very nice. Marvin is fluent in English, which was nice so that we could converse with him. Things I liked about this ride in comparison to others in Costa Rica: his horses had no evidence of ticks or other illness/skin conditions; Marvin's tours are private (he will not add one other person into your tour group just to fill in a spot to make himself more money, for example); Marvin kept us going at a slow, leisurely pace whereas other guides had the horses run/gallop part of the time (that was scary, and they did it even though I expressed that I did NOT want to run/gallop and that everyone in our party was inexperienced); and Marvin runs his own operation (he's the only guide and has a limited number of horses), so maybe that's why he seems to care a bit more about his horses. I guess one can book a ride with Marvin through other tour operators, but I recommend booking directly with Marvin. That way, maybe Marvin gets a little more money? At the very least, there is no reason to pay more for a tour just so a middle man can receive a share. We would definitely go riding with Marvin and his beautiful, healthy horses again.

马文最近把他的骑马事宜挪到了卡布亚,卡布亚是一座坐落在蒙特苏马南部的非常安静的小渔村。卡布亚很偏僻,所谓的主干大道也就是个十字路口而已。然而,这儿却有很多值得探索的地方。马文可以带你去沙滩,或者丛林,如果你愿意的话,两个都可以。他是卡比呀唯一的骑马的导游,所以他能给你你想要的那种感觉。你可以跟他商量时间,可以玩几个小时,也可以玩一整天。我们骑马去沙滩,中途在泻湖边上停下来休息了一会儿,所以马也可以休息休息,我们喝点水,吃点新鲜的菠萝。让我们惊喜的是马文最后请我们喝当地的啤酒。马文已经在这儿住了很长时间了,所以这儿好玩的地方他都知道。他对他的马非常呵护,这一点很打动我。如果马有丝毫受伤的迹象,他就让马好好休息休息,悉心照料他们,不让他们载客。他对于动物福利有一套很强烈的态度,他搬到卡布亚很大一部分原因是因为这儿可以给马提供更好的照顾。他的马都很健康,有着独特的幽默气息。如果你不大会骑,马文也很会照顾你。他会给你很多有益的建议,确保你和马是安全的。我们玩的很开心。我推荐这儿!
