5 out of 5!

Beautiful view, gentle horses, overall a 5/5 experience. We were picked up in the morning, there was quite a bit of traffic on the route, but the tour company waited for us to arrive at the hacienda. We selected our horses, jumped on and started riding!
Amazing horseback and Cotopaxi experience. 10 out of 10.

The experience of riding a horse and exploring Cotopaxi was amazing. Everything was so smooth and taken care of that all we had to do was enjoy the experience. I would highly recommend Luis and Raul - these guys were the best in making sure we were enjoying the experience. This was SO fun. I would highly highly recommend it.
Amazing Cotopaxi touring experience

I wasn't sure what to expect but knew that going to Cotopaxi would be such an amazing experience. The guides (Luis and Raul) picked us up near our airbnb and they were so informative and friendly throughout the whole trip. Luis explained the stories behind all the volcanos we passed along the ride to Cotopaxi. Once we got to horses, we were welcomes with delicious tea and warm empanadas -- great way to kick off the trip! And my goodness the horse ride (my first time riding a horse) was incredible and so gorgeous. I couldn't stop looking around and soaking in the views. We stopped along the way for photos which was nice. After the horseback ride, we drove to the Cotopaxi National Park and walked around a lagoon -- it was such a great way to relax after the horseback ride. The tour was well organized and coordinate from the beginning to the end. I highly recommend going on a trip with Luis and Raul!
Amazing Day!

We loved our day with Luis and Raul, best day in Quito! The day started out being picked up early in Quito, and then a scenic ride out to the mountains with some pictures along the way. We had traditional drinks, empanadas and outfits ready for our horseback ride. This part was AMAZING! The views were incredible, the horses were well-trained and Luis was knowledgeable and thoughtful in talking to us about the area and its unique history. We were able to catch Cotopaxi while the weather was perfect. We were given wonderful lunches (including a vegetarian friendly option that was great!) that we ate on our way to the walking tour right next to Cotopaxi. On the walk, we learned about the flora and fauna in the area, along with general Cotopaxi details. Luis let us go at a pace appropriate, as we were acclimating. Raul picked us up right at the end and then we headed back and stopped for hot chocolate on the way back (greatest hot chocolate ever).

Spending the day with Luis and Raul felt like hanging out with great friends who knew a ton about the area. They knew a ton about the history and culture of the area, and the nature around us. They’re funny, fun and kind, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about our day. Five stars, highly recommend!
Amazing experience horseback riding in Cotopaxi!

This was one of the best experiences of my life!
Luis and Raul were amazing guides. They were so friendly and knowledgeable and made sure we had the best time. I hadn’t been on a horse since I was a little kid but they made sure we all felt comfortable no matter our experience level. Wearing the ponchos and chaps helped to keep us warm and safe when traversing through tall grass. It also made for some really great photos, especially with the greatly great Cotopaxi volcano in the background. The walk around the lagoon was also beautiful. I will never forget this experience and would recommend to anyone visiting Ecuador!
