We travelled from QLD especially for the Bakers Beach ride - chasing a pristine and remote location. Laura, Lisa & Cheryl were amazing guides ensuring the right horse, capturing beautiful moments on video and camera and quality guidance and direction. We will be back for more rides for sure

Cradle County Adventure tours are well worth doing. The four day multi ride through bakers beach was phenomenal. They cater to all levels of riders and do a fantastic job to cater to this.
Accommodation was comfortable and the food outstanding. Being about to ride on the beach all day without seeing another sole was truly AMAZING!!! Thank you Laura, Ray, Stacay and Sage ❤️❤️❤️

Had an absolutely wonderful experience with cradle country adventures. Did the 3 hr ride on Bakers Beach and it was stunningly beautiful. The horse I had, Dewey, was gentle and well trained. The horses are all healthy and lovely. Our guide was excellent and made the experience so fun. I definitely recommend the experience and will do it again if I come back to tasmania

Had a totally magical time! Spending five days on their ‘Cradle to Country’ ride (through Globetrotting) was a total joy. From riding mountains, to farmland, to beach - each day was spectacular. I’m still saving up to buy the beautiful horse I rode too, Rollo - he was an absolute dream. And our guides, particularly Laura, Barbara and Stacey were standouts! We were kept safe, we were spoilt, and we had a fabulous time together. I’ll definitely be back!

The most amazing adventure with my 2 girls. Stunning varied scenery, outstanding horses and guides. Really cater to all levels. We did a 5 day ride and we loved every second. Hats off to Ray and Laura owners and our wonderful guides Stacey, Barbara and Kirsty.

One of the best trail riding companies I have used! The owners and staff are professional, friendly and take good care of their horses who are super safe and well trained. They provide horses for all rider levels - as an experienced rider I had a blast on the beach rides. Special thanks to Laura and Barb for making the day memorable and letting us have so much fun (canter/gallop) 🥰

Me and my friends did the 3 day riding package. Accommodation is basic but comfortable and meals were delicious and well catered for our dietary requirements (vegetarian/dairy free). I wouldn’t go again on the Cradle mountain ride as it’s hard terrain and just walking but it was worth it to experience it once. I will hopefully be back to do the beach ride again as it was epic ❤️
