Most spectacular view!

It’s a walk on a gigantic park sitting on a horse while surrounded by spectacular view. The 2 guides we had (Emily and Caitlin) were very friendly and introduced us to the mountains where Lord of the Rings had a few filming done. The experience is well worth it and the air super fresh. Very good outdoor experience!

Amazing experience not to be missed

This was by far the best experience we had in Queenstown/Glenorchy - The views were spectacular and the horses were so gentle and friendly - Our guide was a super friendly young English girl (forgot her name sorry) had knowledge of the surround area and made sure everyone was comfortable. We did the 2.5 hour treck and was treated to some amazing views. Highly recommended experience for anyone who loves horses or natural beauty!

Hoping to enjoy the serenity

The ride was beautiful and we were really hoping to enjoy the serenity, but the guide, who was lovely, talked non stop for the entire 3 hour ride. There's nobody on this planet I want to hear talking for 3 hours non stop. Nobody.
