Traveler reviews
Horse Fun! My traveling companion and I thoroughly enjoyed our day with guide Flavio on this countryside, totally non-touristy
The open market with an incredible display of fresh fish; the ferry ride and finally the wonderful horseback ride on this amazingly pristine, empty beach. Not for those looking to race, but as an experienced horsewoman, found it very entertaining and perfect for beginners.
Book with Francisco from World Experience - he was awesome
Amazing tour led by Francisco from World Experience through Setubal and Comporta. He was so knowledgeable, warm, funny and great company too. Then, a picture-perfect, fun horseback ride with Joanna was and experience we won't forget!
Great experience of phenomenal beach on horseback!
Despite Workers Day closings in Setubal, Comporto was fun to explore and the horse riding was fabulous. Gentle horses, 90 minute ride with 1/3 of it on the beach. George was our guide and excellent.
Fun
Horseback riding was an unforgettable experience! Jorge made the trip even better by getting us there safely on time. Super friendly :)
