My husband and I had an amazing experience on the 1-hour Waiheke Horse Trek! The scenic beauty of Waiheke Island was breathtaking, with stunning views of the coastline and lush greenery throughout the ride. The horses were well-trained, gentle, and clearly well cared for, making the trek enjoyable even for beginners. Our guide, Lilly was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we felt comfortable. It was the perfect way to explore the island’s natural beauty and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable outdoor adventure.
Staff were great, friendly and helpful and horses were well trained and cared for, but trek was disappointing. We rode through a paddock and up a hill on a gravel path then near the top turned around and rode back down again. Whole ride only took about 40 minutes. Was expecting a more scenic ride and one that lasted the duration we had paid for.
Their horses are kept very well, beautiful and shiny. The views are fantastic! The ride is half way up and then downhill, it is in a quiet and peaceful area. Unfortunately, I was given broken stirrups, which did not keep my right foot in place and it kept slipping out during the ride. It felt very dangerous and unfair as all other visitors did not have any problems with their equipment. Nobody apologized for that, I was only told that , yes, they are not all new... I believe in this case my safely was compromised and it did not feel very respectful to a customer. I would normally expect the professional behaviour by the personnel to take the broken stirrup as they are trained and skilled in the field... So, everybody else enjoyed the ride much better from a safety perspective....
