Expected I little more than just a walk in the desert. Would have liked more time walking on the beach. We did not stop or given an opportunity to take photos which was a bummer. They did asked if we wanted them to take photos for us for a fee which I declined since I had my phone to take pictures with. Instructions on horse riding were great and clear. We did get offered helmets but we declined. Not sure to what “park” you pay an entry fee since our guide told us we were traveling on private property and there was no gate or boundary we crossed that gave us the the impression of entering any park. If it’s to their sanctuary, perhaps it should be advertised as a donation not a fee. I do applaud their efforts to sea turtles conservation but that is the ranch’s prerogative. The horses were great and well behaved. They pretty much know the drill and need very little guidance from you. The snack they advertised was for the horses not for us but they did give us a bottle water after the ride. Lastly, it is pretty far up north from the town so expect a decent ride out to the ranch, but the driver does his best to cut the time down.
