Beautiful ride on Santorini
Rode all over town and down to the beach. Horses are in great shape and well cared for. Beautiful views! Everyone was very nice
via Viator
Great for riders
I had an amazing time, and while the pace is customizable to riding level, I definitely recommend booking only if you have previous experience. The horses were sweet and well trained though, well cared for and worked really hard to make it fun. It was a cute ride through the village, the caldera and the beach gallop of course was amazing. Great for solo riders or small groups!

Best horse riding abroad experience!!
I had the most wonderful, amazing experience with Santorini horse riding. An experience I will never forgot! Highly recommend booking your ride around sunset, it was just perfect. From riding up to the town, to the most beautiful view point overlooking Santorini, to galloping on the beach as the sun was setting, returning back to the stables with an orange and pink sky. The horses couldn’t have been more well behaved. All the staff were so welcoming and great! My lovely ride leader was very nice, took many great pictures with the views, told us much about the town and history whilst on our trek. We galloped loads which was very fun! I have done much horse riding abroad and this has been the best by far. Thank you so much!

Best excursion of my life!
Favorite activity I did on my trip to Europe. I am an experienced horseback rider, but have not galloped in a while. I brought my husband who is not very experienced (never cantered). Luckly, we ended up being the only couple on the tour and the guide was very kind and reassuring, make sure he was comfortable with he speed. We rode horseback through a town and was the coolest experience, we felt like we were in a movie. Once down to the beach he had my husband refrain from galloping and the guide and I took off down the black sand beach. Coolest experience of my life! You definingly should have prior experience for this.

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Beach Gallop - Horse Riding Safari for Experienced Riders: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.
How much does Beach Gallop - Horse Riding Safari for Experienced Riders cost?
+
Prices start at $110 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santorini usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Beach Gallop - Horse Riding Safari for Experienced Riders take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Santorini is not rushed.
Is Beach Gallop - Horse Riding Safari for Experienced Riders worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 22 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Santorini, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Beach Gallop - Horse Riding Safari for Experienced Riders?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Beach Gallop - Horse Riding Safari for Experienced Riders suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Beach Gallop - Horse Riding Safari for Experienced Riders?
+
Around 8 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Santorini can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Santorini and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Beach Gallop - Horse Riding Safari for Experienced Riders start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Santorini within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Santorini?
+
On Outty we rank every Santorini experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half Day Premium Catamaran Cruise in Santorini including Oia, Private Santorini Tailor Made - Choice of the Guest!, Private Classic Santorini Panorama: Visit Top Destinations. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Santorini?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Santorini?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
