I booked the 1.5hr ride to the beach and back for my boyfriend and I. I'm an experienced rider and…read morehe hasn't ridden a horse since he was a child, so we were hoping for a little more instruction for him other than "pull back to stop and kick to go". We were already on the horses for 5min before the guide stopped, introduced himself and asked if it was anyone's first time on a horse before (little late to be asking that!). Due to his thick accent, it was also extremely difficult to understand him when he was shouting instructions from the back of a horse. The trail itself was extremely rocky and the horses were frequently smashing their hooves/slipping on the rocky terrain. Our guide was always 2 horse lengths ahead of the group with another rider, so if something had happened while riding and we needed immediate assistance, we would have had to yell for him to stop. We were with an inexperienced group of riders, so we trotted one time and then never tried again. The oddest thing was after the ride. The guide took a couple quick pictures of each group while on the beach and told us to leave our number so he could send us the pictures afterwards. We did, bought a hat from them and left. Then my boyfriend received a message via Venmo from the business "reminding that we haven't received a tip from you for your ride and we accept tips via Venmo". Two days went by and still no pictures. I messaged them on Instagram and got no reply. The following day I called and asked if the pictures could be sent to me and was told she would let our guide (Carvel) know to send them. I then received texts from someone who was obviously Carvel himself telling me again he still hadn't received a tip from us. I asked if it was required to leave a tip in order to receive the pictures and he said "did not say that- but Carvel took the photos on his personal phone which he did not have to do so we believe he deserves a tip." Carvel never asked for my phone to take the pictures which I would have happily provided if asked. We finally got the pictures after I sent a string of angry messages. After paying over $400 for the ride and the hat, I never expected to have to harass the business multiple times for three pictures that were taken in a rush. I do not recommend this experience.

We wanted a half hour ride but because no one booked, they start de-Satteling early?? Then a family of 5 came after us, all denied. That's 7 customers. It's a shame. Should really change website. Wasted my gas, and time. At 150pm, for 30 mins, there should be no issue on giving us a ride especially when there's no bookings.
