Horseback riding heaven on the beach
This horseback ride on the beach was so unique and soooo cool!!! We loved every second of it! Lester our guide spotted howler monkeys and coiati on the trail 🙌. The water was spectacular- we loved every second of it! Our driver , Elgar, was also fantastic. He took very good care of us in the car and was very knowledgeable and engaging. We would do this tour again 100%. Rico Tours.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Beautiful guide, beautiful horses, amazing scenery!
We are so thankful for the time and energy Lester put into our tour! He took so many pictures for us along the way it felt like a photoshoot! The route was beautiful and the horses were super tame. We really enjoyed this. (My first time horse back riding and I was a bit nervous) it was so much fun for our family of 5. Pura Vida

Put this on your bucket list.
Such a great experience. It was nice experiencing the beach this way. Make sure to go barefoot or wear shoes that stay on … lol. We got to trot or gallop down the beach and went on the 4 pm so the pictures were fantastic.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re happy you enjoyed discovering the beach on horseback—and yes, secure shoes or going barefoot is definitely a great tip! The 4:00 p.m. ride is especially beautiful, with cooler temperatures and incredible golden-hour light for photos. We loved having you with us and hope to ride together again on your next visit to Costa Rica!

Rigo Tours Horseback riding
The experience was EPIC. Our guide was great and took good care of us and allowed us plenty of time with the horses. The only confusing part was the meeting point and some of that was my fault. All in all a 10/10
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled that your experience was EPIC and that your guide made you feel comfortable while giving you plenty of time to enjoy and connect with the horses. We also appreciate your feedback about the meeting point. We’ll continue working to make our arrival instructions clearer and easier for every guest. Thank you for the 10/10! We hope to ride with you again on your next visit to Costa Rica.

Why this scores 77

Conchal Beach Horseback Riding - 1hr 30min Guided Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Playa Flamingo.
How much does Conchal Beach Horseback Riding - 1hr 30min Guided Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Playa Flamingo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Conchal Beach Horseback Riding - 1hr 30min Guided Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 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 Playa Flamingo is not rushed.
Is Conchal Beach Horseback Riding - 1hr 30min Guided Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 84 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Playa Flamingo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Conchal Beach Horseback Riding - 1hr 30min Guided Tour?
+
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 Conchal Beach Horseback Riding - 1hr 30min Guided Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 8. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 1.5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Conchal Beach Horseback Riding - 1hr 30min Guided Tour?
+
Around 29 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 Playa Flamingo 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 Playa Flamingo and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Conchal Beach Horseback Riding - 1hr 30min Guided Tour 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 Playa Flamingo 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 Playa Flamingo?
+
On Outty we rank every Playa Flamingo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Flamingo, Guanacaste All Inclusive Catamaran Snorkel Adventure, Tropical Rainforest, Hanging Bridges And Jungle Sloths Sanctuary, Flamingo Family Fun Catamaran Snorkel:Comfortable shaded seating. 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 Playa Flamingo?
+
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 Playa Flamingo?
+
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.
