Best Croatia Horseback Riding Tours — Our Top 11

1.Dubrovnik Kojan Koral: Horseback Riding

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 100 reviews · 4 hours · from $164Our pick

Spend four hours with Kojan Koral, including pickup, a two-hour guided ride, safety gear, and a local snack of prosciutto, cheese, wine, and water. Guides such as Pero, Kika, and Kristina lead slow rides through woodland, rocky coastal paths, and the remains of Popovići. The horses are calm and well trained, but the rocky ground can challenge first-time riders.

“Such a fabulous activity, lovely horses, beautiful scenery, our guide was great. Highly recommended however, be aware that there are quite a few massive spiders en route which you have to pass by or ride under, it didn’t bother the others on our ride but I have a spider phobia so I freaked out a little a few times. That being said I would do it again.”
