My Costa Rican friend and I came for a trail ride from the lovely, peaceful farm owned by Krysia and Victor. The horses were beautiful, healthy and so clearly loved. I was very happy to be riding Habibi, she was a joy to ride and had great energy. My friend rode Santos who was a lovely, sweet boy. Krysia and Victor were great hosts, taking care to ensure we were safe and comfortable. Victor also took photographs on the ride and shared them with us which was great. Since I am lucky enough to come back to Costa Rica regularly I will be definitely be planning another visit to Finca Caballo Loco as soon as I can.
