# Aruba Countryside: Horseback Adventure to Urirama Cove

**Guidekin's take:** A small group ride from the ranch through the traffic free cunucu countryside to the secluded Urirama cove on the northeast coast, with helmet and hotel or port pickup included; a private ride is an option. Water is not provided and a rider weight limit applies. 4.72 from 256 reviews at €104 per person.

In our comparison: #9 of 11 in Horseback Riding, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Set off from the ranch on a delightful 1.5-hour guided horseback riding adventure,with a small group and your guide. Wind your way through the beautiful Aruban countryside, known locally as the 'Cunucu.' This peaceful area is free from streets and traffic, making it a safe and relaxing place to explore. The ride leads to the charming and secluded Urirama Beach, or as locals call it, a 'boca' (cove), on the northeast coast of the island, where you can watch the waves crash against the rocky shore. The scenery is truly lovely, offering classic Aruban views. This tour is perfect for families, beginners, and children - everyone is welcome and no experience is needed! For safety, galloping is not allowed. Enjoy free round-trip transportation from select Palm Beach High Rise Hotels (please check availability). After your ride, have a refreshing cold drink at our bar. Come make wonderful memories with us! Small groups only and Private rides.
