Our large (family) group consisted of children from 5 years to 18 years and several adults. Our “differently-abled” daughters (no arms) did not phase them at all and they accommodated all of us. We will definitely go on this tour again, next time we will take the longer trail ride!

I went for horse riding and for hiking to el cerro del robble. The whole team works great! I totally recommend it! Only if you see it yourself, you can understand that it couldn’t be a better excursion!

My buddy and I wanted an adventure in the Andes and this was it! This was my first time on horseback and the climb was perfect for getting used to the horse. This was awesomely beautiful and we came away with great photos and great memories. Gui was great fun and I am hoping to join him and Flecha Extrema on my next visit to Chile. I highly recommend this trip!

My friend and I went horse-riding with Victor close to Santiago and it was absolutely great! I would absolutely recommend that trip to everyone even if you are a beginner like me and maybe a bit afraid of everything.
