FAQ

Do I need horseback riding experience to join your tours?

No prior experience is necessary. Our Peruvian Paso horses are calm, gentle, and ideal for first-time riders. We also provide a full safety briefing, riding instructions, and personalized horse matching before every tour. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced rider, we tailor the ride to your comfort level.

What’s the difference between the 3, 4, and 5-day horseback tours?

  • 3-Day Tour: Great for beginners or travelers with limited time. A scenic and culturally rich experience.
  • 4-Day Tour: More in-depth exploration of Sacred Valley landscapes and traditional communities.
  • 5-Day Tour with Machu Picchu: Our most complete adventure — includes horseback travel and a guided visit to Machu Picchu.

All itineraries are customizable based on your interests and riding ability.

Can I include Machu Picchu in my horseback riding trip?

Yes. Our 5-day horseback tour includes transportation and a guided visit to Machu Picchu. While horses are not allowed inside the archaeological site, we arrange the full experience seamlessly, combining trail riding with cultural exploration.

What makes Peruvian Paso horses special?

Peruvian Paso horses are a unique breed native to Peru, famous for their smooth, four-beat gait called “paso llano.” This gait makes them extremely comfortable to ride — especially over long distances and mountainous terrain. They’re also calm, intelligent, and sure-footed, making them perfect for riders of all levels.

What type of accommodations do you offer during the tours?

You can choose between two styles:

  • Standard Camping: Includes quality tents, sleeping gear, and freshly cooked meals.
  • Luxury Glamping: Offers real beds, spacious tents, and beautiful Andean-style decor — ideal for those who want extra comfort.
  • Both options are located in scenic, peaceful environments close to the trail.

What is the best time of year for a horseback tour in Cusco?

The best time for horseback riding in the Sacred Valley is during the dry season (April to October), when trails are clear and views are stunning. We operate year-round and adapt our routes for weather conditions in the rainy season (November to March).

What should I pack for a multi-day horseback tour?

We provide all riding equipment and camping gear. You should bring:

  • Comfortable clothing in layers
  • Sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen)
  • Rain gear (just in case)
  • Personal items and a reusable water bottle

A full packing list will be sent upon booking.

Are your tours suitable for solo travelers or families?

Absolutely. We welcome solo travelers, couples, small groups, and families. Children must be accompanied by an adult, and we’ll make sure the itinerary fits everyone’s experience level and needs.

How do you ensure the horses are well cared for?

Our horses are part of our family. We follow strict ethical care standards, including:

  • Rest periods between rides
  • Balanced diets
  • Routine veterinary care
  • Gentle training techniques

We never overload or exploit our horses — their health and happiness come first.
