Incredible day riding...
Incredible day riding amazing horses while learning about the area. Ricardo and Joshua were great guides. So were Domino, Luchesa, Susana and Falco-the canine guides. We rode through a tiny village and saw how people live in the mountains.
via Viator
Highly recommended
The experience was amazing from start to finish. The horses are so well maintained and friendly and an added bonus they have a bunch of rescued cats and dogs that you can play with while you wait (if you love animals like I do this is a plus). The pick up at the location was on time and we started on time and throughout the ride both instructors are there to guide you and even assist with the horses if they get to excited (every horse has their personally).

This experience was great...
This experience was great and the best I had in Medellín! It was my first time horseback riding. Ricardo and George were great hosts and you can tell they enjoy what they do. I loved all of the animals they have. You can tell they are all well taken care of. The horses are smart, well trained, and taken care of.

Wonderful experience!
Amazing day! We loved the whole experience. The ranch had puppies, kittens, goats, cows and amazing views, we honestly loved the time we spent waiting there before and after the ride! They were so loving toward their animals and showed us “before”photos of the horses that they got as rescues. They set us up with our horses and taught us quickly what we needed to know, continuing to teach us all along the ride. I was nervous about my 7 year old son, but they were so reassuring and took care of him! The ride was longer than I thought and the area was gorgeous. We forgot sunblock and got terribly sunburned, so make sure you don’t make that mistake. The stops were very nice and riding through the small town was cool. It was pretty hot and sunny up there so I’d recommend to carry a water bottle with you and wear a hat!

Fun day horseback riding
This was a great way to spend a day in the beautiful countryside outside of Medellín proper. The two guys that are your guides are really fun, and personable, and they look out for you. Definitely would recommend. It's nice that it is a mix of tourists and Colombians together - a bilingual experience. There was a really good energy in the group.

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Scenic Horseback Riding in the Medellín Mountains: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.
How much does Scenic Horseback Riding in the Medellín Mountains cost?
+
Prices start at $74 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Medellín usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Scenic Horseback Riding in the Medellín Mountains take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Medellín is not rushed.
Is Scenic Horseback Riding in the Medellín Mountains worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 135 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Medellín, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Scenic Horseback Riding in the Medellín Mountains?
+
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 Scenic Horseback Riding in the Medellín Mountains suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 4-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Scenic Horseback Riding in the Medellín Mountains?
+
Around 47 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 Medellín 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 Medellín and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Scenic Horseback Riding in the Medellín Mountains 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 Medellín 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 Medellín?
+
On Outty we rank every Medellín experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guatapé Tour: Piedra del Peñol with Boat Tour, Breakfast, Lunch, Half-Day Coffee Tour: From the Seed to the Cup, Farm & roastery, Private Guatape & Coffee Farm Tour: The Two Must do in One Day. 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 Medellín?
+
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 Medellín?
+
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.
