Beach And Ocean Heritage Horseback RideExplore > Jamaica > Ocho Rios > Beach And Ocean Heritage Horseback Ride
OverviewLearn the history of Jamaica from atop your trusty steed. You'll be happy to know that the owner of this stable is one of the directors of the local Horse and Donkey Rescue and Rehome Program. Be assured that the well-being of their horses is of utmost importance to them. They'll take the time to match you with the correct horse for your riding ability. Get ready for a horseback ride through history! Your ride begins at a site of great historical significance. It was at the Seville Property that three very different cultures coexisted for many years. You'll learn about the Tainos (who originally settled the island more than 1,000 years ago), Europeans, and Africans, who all contributed to the culture that is Jamaica today. Upon arrival at the stable, your guide will give you a safety briefing and introduce you to your horse. Then, it's time to get saddled up and join your knowledgeable guide as you explore the plantation and its ancient artifacts, Indian villages, and European settlements on your way down to our private beach This trip isn't all history, however. A ride along the water's edge of a deserted sandy beach with just you and the birds will make for a memorable ride.
