Tour options

You can choose between two options when booking the horseback riding tour in Vaqueros. In both cases, we'll meet at the designated time at the entrance of the El Refugio farm.

Below, you can see the itinerary of each option:

3-hour tour

For this option, we'll enjoy a fun two-hour horseback ride through the mountains and forests of Vaqueros. During the route, we'll cross rivers and trails that will test your skills and impress you at the same time.

If you're not an expert rider, don't worry! Before starting the tour, we'll show you the ins & outs of riding. After the two hours of riding, we'll return to the starting point, and we will have breakfast or a snack, depending on the time you selected for the ride.

5-hour tour

If you want a more complete option, the 5-hour tour is perfect. As soon as we arrive at the farm, we'll enjoy a delicious breakfast or lunch. With our batteries recharged, we'll take a two-hour horseback ride through the stunning mountains, rivers, and forests surrounding the farm.

To finish, we'll sit down again at the table and satisfy our appetite with lunch or a snack, depending on the time. Bon appetit! We'll end the horseback riding tour after 5 hours of experience on the farm.
