From there, you will ride down to the beach, reaching an area that is not very busy even in the summer. If you choose the afternoon excursion (starting at 18:00), you will have the opportunity to witness the sunset over the sea with a view of neighboring Paros across the bay a truly mesmerizing experience.
There is a brief stop on the way back at a local beach cafe to purchase a drink and enjoy the view across to Paros. In the evening, you can also watch the sunset. The ride lasts about two hours, but timings are flexible, especially on the Greek islands. The idea is to have a beautiful and relaxing ride, so there are no strict time limits.
If you are experienced, please inform your guide so that you have the chance to gallop a thrilling experience in a beautiful location.
Upon booking, your ticket will include a link to a Google Map with the exact meeting location. Note that we can also organize a transfer from your hotel if needed, at a small extra cost.
Please be aware that during the winter, only the morning tour is available, starting at 11:00.
There is the option to book a private pony ride for children younger than 6 yrs that weigh around 20-30 kg. The ride takes place in an enclosed area for safety reasons.

Romantic horseback riding for two
January 5, 2023
Rated 4 out of 5
My hubby booked a sunset riding tour for our 35th anniversary as a surprise before taking me out to dinner. It was an amazing experience as we have both ridden in the past so we had the "experienced" version and had the chance to gallop by the sea while the sun was setting behind Paros. It is 4 stars just because we had to stand by until the previous group came back in order to get the faster horse, but that was worth the wait.

Απίστευτη αδρεναλίνη! Η καλύτερη ώρα της ιπασσίας είναι η απογευματινή που απολαμβάνεις το ηλιοβασίλεμα στο Αγ.Γιώργη.

A truly magical experience

There were only five of us they said because it was the start of the season. I've been on a horse only a few times so they paired me up with a horse for beginners. I felt safe the whole time. Yes was a bit worried if honest. We chose the sunset tour and it was truly magical. The bit of the beach where you start has a few people but afterwards, there really is nobody. I'd recommend this experience to everyone coming to Naxos!

We did the sunset ride. Unforutantely my horse didn't feel like galloping despite my best efforts! But still a good experience.

I can't gallop fast and they were very patient with me. Very relaxing experience. Felt close to nature and the horses. Would recommend.
