Learn about logwood & red mangrove trees (used to make dye), pimento (used in allspice and jamaica’s key jerk sauce) and aloe vera (used for insect bites).
Eat our sugarcane, ride through our mangrove tunnel and experience an eco-friendly wildlife forest. Our unspoiled private beach awaits you for a fun filled horseback ride m’ swim, where you’ll splash through the warm turquoise Caribbean ocean. Guides will capture unlimited Free Photos with your cameras. Awesome !

All six of us said this was the best event in our entire trip. The main guide was terrific. He made sure we were safe and his information about the wildlife was good. The horses were tame and we felt very safe. It was a fantastic experience for us.
The tour was so peaceful and the scenery was beautiful! Our tour guide, was excellent!! He was so friendly and was so kind to take photos of us throughout the tour. I am so thankful we chose Viator for this amazing experience!!
Our tour guide were excellent it was a nice ride they were very informative they took excellent care of us. We were very pleased
The stuff and the horses are very friendly and nice! It was our boys' first horseback riding and they enjoyed totally! When you visit Negril, you SHOULD experience this tour.
I had a really good time on this trip with Reggae Horseback Riding. I was the only person on the tour. The pick-up was a few minutes late due to a last minute change in driver -- the original one had a flat tire on the way to the hotel. The delay did not matter because I was the only person scheduled for the tour. The farm has about 45 horses and it is an easy ride along the trail to the beach. Make sure you take your sunscreen and bug spray. The guide pointed out a number of plants and other things of interest along the ride to the beach. We stopped at the beach for about 20 minutes before returning to the farm. The farm has chickens, peacocks and an ostrich. An ostrich -- the last thing I expected to see in Jamaica. I felt that this trip was much more personalized than the horseback riding tours that I saw traveling along the beach in front of my hotel. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a short half day trip while in Negril.
Our guides were very quiet but friendly, but more than half the trip was riding down a dirt path with nothing but trees on either side until we reached the beach. The ride into the ocean was awesome but very short. On a positive side, they took lots of pics and videos for us and it was much closer to our hotel than the Island Routes tour. Would we do it again? Probably not.
This was definitely a small group considering it was only my husband and I on the tour. We were picked up right on time in a taxi, and it was about a half an hour ride from the Tree House Resort in Negril. The best thing I liked about this ride was that we didn't have to ride in a straight line like most trail rides, we could ride side by side. The guides were great and took tons of pictures of us with my camera. I would definitely recommend this tour
