Visitors' Reviews & Stories

Linda

Horseback riding has always been something I love to do, however my husband prefers not to. However, he reluctantly agreed to go on a ride in Bermuda. A taxi driver set us up with Mike's Unique Horse Services and the driver advised this would be a different and fun experience. Well, he was right! From the minute we first meet Mike, he was fabulous! He was eager to share his knowledge and experience of horseback riding with us, he taught us valuable tips on handling the horse which we both enjoyed. We had a fantastic ride through the streets of Bermuda, through nature trails and the beach views were awesome as well. We experienced a true horse back ride, where we directed the horse using the tips Mike taught us. This is not a nose to tail trail ride in any aspect, which is why it was such a special time. Both my husband and I agreed this was the highlight of our time on Bermuda.
