Take a horse for a ride
  • Tip Rating:
  • I really enjoyed horseback riding in Antigua. That was one way I ventured outside the city and explored the surrounding commuities. More on that later.

    The equipment is provided for you. You just have to hang on and be careful the horse doesnt run wild. You see there is no horse lane you have to jockey through the streets and be damn good at it.

    Horse back riding/carriage riding
    I would ask that you consider not riding the horses in Antigue or any town that has cobble stones. Everytime I visit this town I'm severly distressed by the condition of the roads and what the horses are expected to walk on. I often see maimed horses with bad shoes, limping or skidding over the cobble stones. I can only imagine the splinter fratures that have. These issues will not get any better until we stop the industry that does not provide healthy horses with better shoes and less demanding riders that expect these animals to endure this abuse. the roads must be changed. Please consider this the next time you ask a carriage rider to take you site seeing.
