Our guides will accompany both beginners and experienced riders on all trips throughout the reserve. You will encounter over 200 medicinal plants with medicinal properties as well as more than 130 bird species and a wide range of wildlife that inhabit San Jorge Botanical Reserve. It is an education unique to San Jorge Eco-Tours.
