Welcome to the Jungle
Forest and jungle horseback rides are distinctly less touristy. You can find them inland and run by families who own their own farms specifically to provide this service to visitors. Reserving a horseback ride through the forest and jungle has another unique element that other activities don’t. You’ll be meeting local farm owners who are happy to share their knowledge of Cozumel. In our experience, spending time with those who are native to Cozumel has often been the highlight of the day.
Lastly, when you’ve decided to head out on horseback, depend on your beach club folks to set you up with a tour that meets your needs–even if you prefer a shorter horse!
