Experience Ometepe in one of the most magical ways possible — on horseback. Our tours are led by Zaccaria, the owner of the horses and an experienced local guide who knows the island’s trails like no one else. His horses are well-trained, healthy, and well cared for, ensuring a safe and enjoyable ride for everyone.

Explore forest paths, hidden trails, and even the beach — one of the reasons Ometepe is truly ideal for horseback adventures. The island is full of horses, and discovering it from the saddle is an unforgettable experience.

The price is 370 córdobas per hour, guide included.
You can pay at the reception and book the day before, or as early as possible on the same day.

Come and enjoy a unique and authentic way to explore the island.
