We had such a lovely time here. My boyfriend, who had never ridden before, was on safest horse ever. They simply walked and followed group. I have riding experience but wasn’t completely confident; however, team made me feel at ease. Towards end, I felt more comfortable and we even went for a canter down beach. They offered to pick us up and drop us off, and also provided refreshments before and after ride. It was such a lovely experience—I didn’t want it to end.

I did sunset swim ride with Salt Lake Stables, and it was truly magical. Horses are incredibly well trained kind, and beautiful. Stable is immaculately clean and people are very friendly, I felt very welcome, even though I was alone and joining group. If I could give ten stars, I would, because this experience was absolutely incredible! If you’re visiting Kos and you love horses, this is a must do! Thanks, guys, for amazing experience ❤️
