Great Experience - It had been 56 years since I sat on a horse and this was a great experience.
Although my horse was so relaxed I ended up lagging behind a bit.
More time on the beach and less in the bush would have been lovely.

A relaxing way to experience Cape Tribulation - It is great to see this iconic attraction back up and running after Cyclone Jasper. Happy horses and great local knowledge from guide Jerry. The low tide meant the usual highlight of walking the horses into the coral sea was out and they don't allow cantering on the beach any more due to insurance restrictions but it is a beautiful way to experience the Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation beach.

A must do! - We had an absolutely stellar afternoon with the team at Cape Trib horses. The drive there was sensational, the property was so stunning. Just free roaming horses everywhere and all so friendly and well taken care of. The guides/cowboys were good fun and easy going. The whole experience was excellent, my daughter loved it as did I!
