Why ride in Aruba?
Unlike many Caribbean islands, Aruba’s dry climate and flat terrain make it ideal for horseback riding almost every day of the year. Horses here are well accustomed to both ocean surf and desert trails, giving riders a rare combination of experiences in a single tour.
Local operators breed and train Paso Fino horses, a smooth gaited breed perfect for beginners, as well as quarter horses for more adventurous riders. Many tours include a guided canter through the surf or a slow amble past ancient divi divi trees.
