About Horseback Riding

Horseback riding in Aruba lets you explore the coast, countryside, and landmarks on horseback. Options include small-group beach rides, ecological and beach tours (great for cruise guests), sunset rides, and scenic rides to the Natural Pool, Alto Vista Chapel, or Wariruri Natural Bridge. Most tours welcome beginners; one Natural Bridge tour is for advanced riders only.

  • Wear long pants and closed-toe shoes; avoid flip-flops and loose clothing that could get caught.
  • Sunset rides are cooler and very popular with couples—book early for the best times.
  • The Natural Pool and Natural Bridge rides can be rugged; the Wariruri tour is for advanced riders only.
