My boyfriend and I did a 2 hour horseback ride with Lily as our guide and we had the absolute best time!! We didn’t know what to expect as we were both first time riders but the whole experience was fantastic and our horses, Jesus and Taxcha were such sweethearts! We will absolutely be back next time we visit Mallorca and highly recommend this experience for others considering it!

Best place for horses and people. I have done several tours so far and tried out different horses. They are all fabulous. The concept of giving horses a second life and training them with natural horsemanship is beautiful. The team is great and the stables seem to be a melting pot for great people and good vibes. I will always come back. 🔜🤠🤩

Amazing time here! We went for the rural ride for 2hours and our guides took the time to teach and ride alongside my partner who wasn't as experienced. It really felt like a safari ride with lots of galloping and fun! They also take excellent care of their horses here, and if you have time, you should totally come here!

I went on the 3 hour beach ride with Naturacavall on the 14th September in the evening, and what an experience! Imagine this: you are at a location sent to you by GPS, nervously meeting other riders in your group, wondering where the heck the horses are, when all of a sudden, the Naturacavall trucks appear on the road, and you watch them unload them before your very eyes. And then riding through the hills, and across the beaches, learning the stories of the horses (all rescues!) and their quirks (I rode Volcan, who adores running on sand and my partner rode Voronoff, who is a retired racehorse), and being lucky enough to go swimming with the horses (this is never guaranteed, due to the nature of the ocean being unpredictable, so we were very lucky!). I learned Xavi's story, learned some about the other riders in the group, and got some absolutely incredible photos, and even better memories. I cannot recommend them enough - I'm already checking dates to book one of their 4 day treks, and cannot wait to go riding with Naturacavall again!

My husband and I did the 3 hour "secret coves" ride in early February. It was a great experience! There were 2 other riders and the guide. We were all fairly experienced and were able to enjoy several fast canters and gallops on the beach and paths. The horses were well trained and responsive and in great condition. Highly recommend!
