To walk with a horse is a totally different experience than to sit on its back and manipulate it to your will. You can look them in the eyes and become equals. You become one with the herd. The 5 horses join us on a lead rope. Come and join us for this most amazing experience. Horses are a mirror to the soul. They synchronize our behavior and reflect what is going on inside of us. They reflect our State of Being. In these unprecedented times, we must trust ourselves, our heart, our intuition, our own guidance. Horses can help us to step into our own power and take leadership over our lives. This journey will inspire you. It may be the beginning of a new path ... If you want to go deeper into finding yourself, we organize 5-day journeys with a horse by your side. Have a look at our website holistic-horsewalk.pt.

Mikael
Such a fun and memorable experience! We got to walk with and lead the beautiful horses, which was really special. It’s amazing to see how much love and care the owners give to horses that have had such difficult lives. We truly admire the wonderful work they do. Highly recommended for anyone who loves horses!

Unforgettable bonding with horses!
What a special experience! If you want to spend some time with some sweet horses this is it! A rural location in the Algarve but made by way as a solo traveler by Bolt/Uber! I was paired up with Mayax a sweet light colored horse, who let our group on a lovely walk around the property. You begin with the horses, giving them space to approach you, spend some time brushing them, head out for a walk, and then finish with some additional bonding time. It was absolute magic! Thanks again! Don’t miss this cool opportunity for horse and animal lovers! Even if you’re nervous, there’s a lot of support!

Magical Experience
This was a lovely experience where you can really feel your soul being recharged by being in the company of these wild horses. Walking a horse, with the others following along, through a field of wildflowers in the hills of Portugal... no comparison! Sachin was a lovely host with a true love of nature and the animals. I have always been an animal lover and this was nothing short of a magical experience.

Horrible
Trip got moved from 6pm to 4pm which wasn't an issue. Got a taxi to the location provided but ended up on the side of the road. Used Google maps to try and find location but was just sent down dirt roads,no sign posts to location at all. Very disappointed as my daughter was looking forward to this very much.

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lagos.
How much does Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side cost?
+
Prices start at $51 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lagos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side 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 Lagos is not rushed.
Is Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 28 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lagos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side?
+
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 Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side 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 Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side?
+
Around 10 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 Lagos 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 Lagos and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side 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 Lagos 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 Lagos?
+
On Outty we rank every Lagos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Kayak Tour: Magic of Ponta da Piedade, Lagos, From Lagos: Kayak Tour of Ponta da Piedade Caves by Boat, Boat trip to the grottos at Ponta da Piedade, Lagos. 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 Lagos?
+
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 Lagos?
+
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.
What is included in Horse Sanctuary: A nature walk with Rescued Horses by your side?
