“This was a disappointing excursion. First it started with a ride In extremely hot weather in an unconditioned air van to our destination to ride horses. It was supposed to be a beautiful ride including 5 river crossings but the river beds were dry so we ended up walking through roads, paths and hot sandy dry river beds with no shade whatsoever. The amount of trash piles along the way was staggering. The saddles were ridiculous uncomfortable and one of our friends fell off his horse when his stirrup broke off and he slid off his horse. After 1 1/2 hours we got to a location that had lots of…”

“Our day was not typical, I'm sure. It began with some confusion with pick up location and then timing. My information said to meet a near by hotel, the contact/tour guide was looking for us at the cruise port. Causing a 30 min delay. I believe the guide would benefit from a flag to carry in crowded areas (city is crowded) because she is under- tall and difficult to spot. Her English was difficult for me to understand. It became more important to understand her when the van was stopped in traffic due to protesters and many law enforcement personal carrying automatic weapons. She eventually got the van turned around…”

The place we went was cool, really nice place to swim, we ordered shrimp tacos they were good. Tequila tasting was cool, learned some things. It was fun overall and would recommend.”
