“We booked a sunset horseback riding tour with this company, which also offers ATVs and tequila tastings. The price included hotel pickup and drop-off, which was convenient. The place itself was expected, a hut in the middle of dirt. We saw nicer spots later, but this was the first one we came across. They picked us up 3.5 hours before sunset. At check-in, a staff member told us we’d be riding for 3 hours and suggested adding ATVs for $100 to “kill time.” It felt like they planned it that way to upsell us. The beach is only a 15 minute horse ride away… they definitely didn’t have to pick…”

Our private tour was had no regrets and our tour guide did a great job making it fun. The tour guide explains to me and my brother (the guys) that we’re going to have some fun and “normally he gets a tip the same price as the private tour” ($175). I thought that was crazy and he basically switched his mindset to give us a great time but with a price. At the end I’m sorry I didn’t tip him $175, he clearly wasn’t happy about it…”
