Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Such a great place. Really friendly staff and very family friendly. Our two girls had never been on horses before and the staff made them feel very comfortable. They did the 30 min ride down the road and back again and haven’t stopped talking about it since. Such great value for money. Would absolutely recommend going here.

My girlfriend and I, both first timers, had a fantastic experience. The horses were calm and responsive; the guide was encouraging, friendly, and knowledgeable. We will definitely be coming back again😊😊. Definitely recommend!

Tereza was fantastic on this ride, she was personable and easy to talk to, whilst also having great knowledge on the area and its history.
The route was nice with some part bush, some part river and road as well
We really enjoyed our day out

Lovely horses, well cared for. Staff were very friendly and our 5 year old daughter had three excellent lessons. She loved it. We’ll definitely go back.

Stunning afternoon on the back of a beautiful horse today. Well organized trek from a pretty homestead. Super easy to get on horseback - anot impressive sturdy stairway platform so anyone of any ability can step up and be in the saddle easily. Our guide Hannah was wonderful. She gave good clear instructions to our 8 year old daughter and quickly built a great rapport that had the rider feeling relaxed, confident and happy. Also very happy to take photos of us on horseback. Lovely to walk down a sleepy village road and through a nice river into the bush. Couldn't recommend this experience highly enough - we'll be back! Thank you
