A Horseback Riding Vacation in Cancun, Mexico
Horseback Riding Spanish Conquistador
Horses, or caballos, as they are called by their Spanish name in Mexico, have served an important part in Spanish history.
While I’m staying at the JW Marriott Cancun Resort and Spa, I noticed the beautiful bronze statues in the lobby of the hotel. Next door the CasaMagna Cancun Resort had an oil painting of a Spanish soldier mounted on his trusty stead.
If you’ve always wanted to go on a horseback riding vacation in Cancun, Mexico, here are several equitrekking opportunites for you to try.
MEXICAN COWBOY BOOTS
Cowboy Boots for a Cancun Horseback Riding Vacation
I’ll be going on a horseback riding vacation at Holkan Kingdom and will report back on my experience.
If you need to pick up a leather pair of Mexican cowboy boots, Mercado 28 in downtown Cancun had several tiendas or shops. Adios.

If you are ever planning a trip to Mexico again, I highly recommend Coyote Canyon Adventures in San Miguel de Allende. I spent a week with them riding their well-trained horses all day, having dinner around the campfire and even bathing in the river. They do everything from half day trips to week-long rides and are really fun, professional and safe. Their website is http://www.coyotecanyonadventures.com. Hope to read about a ride with you at Coyote Canyon soon!
