The horseback riding in Comporta is SO NICE, the color of the water is breathtaking! And the whole experience is worth your time, I recommend it. It was our second time in Lisbon and we would like to try something new, thank you Flavio for the amazing time we had in Portugal!

Very good driver (Artur) who was very helpful and did his best to give us information. The riding site was beautiful with calm horses in Melides but I was hoping to do more than just walk the horse-I thought we would at least canter/ gallop on the beach.

This was a wonder experience I will never forget. The charming village of Setubal, the amazing views and the funniest horseback ride I never had. Our tour guide, Flavio was extremely professional. Worth your money!! Muito obrigado!!

It was simply AMAZING!! Flavio, our guide, was very knowledgeable, and the horseback riding on the beach was unforgettable. I loved it and highly recommend for those who wants to have a once in a lifetime experience when in Lisbon.

Setubal was a surprisingly beautiful town and the horseback riding at Melides tops up this entire experience.
