“Me and mom had an amazing time! The tour guide was so nice and conversational. Both of us have not ridden a horse and we’re a little bit nervous at first. However the horses were really calm and well behaved! Native Santorinians also care about horses so they tend to slow down in their cars…”

“My wife spent the ride hitched to the owners horse while the rest of us rode on our own. So her leg got soaked by the other horse urinating. The place is a dump and the owner is a little off. He doesn't communicate well and he's frankly too old for this business. The access…”
