El Paseo Ranch Aruba is one of the most unprofessional organizations we have every encountered. My wife planned a number of excursions for us while honeymooning in Aruba. Our last day on the Island would consist of a sunset trail ride. We were scheduled to be picked up at our hotel at 4:15pm. We are waiting in the designated pickup... More

I have been in the horse business for 20 years. I always pretend I'm an intermediate rider when I go trail riding because it's a better way to judge the ranch I attend. The horses were obviously old pros. They know their job and aren't terribly interested in your suggestion to do anything but what they see the guide horse... More

My boyfriend and I loved the sunday morning ride. Good thing they pick you up at your Hotel because we could have never found the place on our own. Wear long pants for sure. More

This beach was guite a ways away from our resort but worth the time. There was snorkling there and had a beautiful fish. I am a first time snorkler and felt really safe. More

Our cruise ship was in Aruba for one day - we had made reservations and Eugene met us by the ATM right outside the main gates, just as he had advised. Eugene was friendly and provided Aruba history and sightseeing on the way to the small ranch. My wife and I were the only riders for a 9 a.m. ride... More

We took this ride to celebrate my sister's birthday. Eugene and his wife were so nice. We had a great time and the view was beautiful. We started out in the desert and went along the beach. It was sunset and it was such a wonderful experience. More

My husband and I took a morning ride with our 22-year-old daughter. The horses were great, the guide was both helpful and informative, and very in tune with the level of experience of each rider. We rode on trails through a beautiful national park that bordered the ocean and offered breath-taking scenery. Highly recommended-not to be missed during your stay... More

My daughter and I took a morning horseback riding tour, it lasted approximately 2 hours and included a run on the beach. My daughter would have stayed all day. The day started with us being picked up right at the quoted time. When we arrived at the ranch, I was a little concerned because it was not big and beautiful,... More

We booked on-line for a tour at El Paseo Ranch. My 14 and 17 year old daughters and I had a private sunset tour and we will never forget it. The sights were amazing and our guide was talkative and made us very comfortable. We were able to gallop on the beach and had many opportunities to take pictures. Our... More

Our family of 6 took the horseback riding tour with this company and had a blast. We can’t say enough great things about the tour, the horses and the staff. Our group consisted of our family and another family of 4. Each group is divided and limited to 10 people per group, which was the main reason we opted for... More
