★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 109 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) Our pick

Private 2-hour horseback ride through La Mision estuary and Pacific beach near Ensenada, with English guides, photos, and ranch animals.

“The taxi from the cruise port went through ruta del vino (wine route) and was often pretty and scenic. Erin greeted us at the ranch and checked riding experience to match us up with a horse. All the horses looked healthy and well fed, and they were very well trained and got along. There was no biting, no kicking and not even ears back. I’ve ridden many places on vacations and this was my favorite. Hawaii and Turks were also very good, but these were the best horses. I will absolutely go back. The horses were fresh and you were allowed to gallop on the beach where there was more…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 50 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $168

Private Ensenada shore day with beach horseback riding, La Bufadora blowhole, and downtown browsing, plus A/C pickup.

“Our driver was awesome! The traffic was stop and go, not sure how he managed to keep his cool. However, this gave him time to help me secure a pinata for my daughter from one of the street vendors running through traffic. The flea market was a blast. SO vibrant with colors and people offering samples of drinks and food. Found some amazing jewelry and blankets. The horses were a bust, but that was our choice, not the vendor's. The Blowhole water feature was not as grand as I had hoped or seen in pictures. With the little bumps-Still give this day 9/10.”
