Tourism is one of the youngest and least developed industries in Honduras – which makes it the ideal location for an authentic Central American horse riding holiday. You will find Honduras unaffected by the usual tourist hordes, but with just as much to offer as other Central American hot spots. Choose from jungle trails, stunning coastlines, wetlands or national parks, and experience a once in a lifetime Honduras horseback riding holiday!
Horse Riding in Honduras
The authenticity of a Honduran horse riding vacation is one of Honduras’ greatest appeals. Geographically speaking, Honduras is one of the gateways to the ancient Mayan World and the region known as Mesoamerica. With vast tracts of jungles, coastal lagoons and beautiful beaches, Honduras is a stunning location for horse riding.
On our Honduras Copan to the Caribbean horse riding holiday you can contemplate Honduras' pristine landscapes, visit the national parks and protected areas and discover the incredible biological diversity of tropical nature. Exotic animals inhabit vast rain forests containing hundreds of bird species, and you will find this landscape is best explored on the back of a trusted horse. Let us show you the beauty of Honduras on our equestrian getaways.
