Paraty, Brazil

Offered in: Portuguese and 1 more

Most horseback rides take you along a crowded trail and send you home. This one takes you into a private world — a working ranch with a real story, a host who genuinely loves what he does, and landscapes that feel far removed from the tourist trail. It's peaceful, personal, and authentic in a way that's hard to find.

Perfect for: Couples seeking something memorable, families wanting a nature experience with meaning, and anyone who wants to connect with the land and the animals — not just pass through it.

*Fully private: your group, your pace, your moment.*

What to expect

Just 45 minutes from Paraty, the road climbs into Serra da Bocaina National Park, where the air cools and the views open up over the Atlantic Forest. At nearly 1,300 meters above sea level, our family ranch sits surrounded by mountains, native forest, and sweeping panoramic scenery that's hard to forget.

The entire experience is reserved exclusively for your group.

Your guide was born and raised on this land. He knows every plant, every trail, and every one of his horses by heart. His passion for the animals, the ranch, and the nature around it comes through in everything he does — and it's something guests never stop talking about.

First-time riders are warmly welcome. Before heading out, you'll learn the basics of horsemanship and spend time connecting with the horses. These animals are calm, healthy, and genuinely cared for.
