For me it was not a good experience. The workers are really nice, but the host not so much. If you expect to ride different horses that are also actually trained well, this wouldn’t be the place for you. Horses are very young, but very nice. The riding is only possible with a couple of them. It’s also a lot of walking to and from the fields, which wasn’t a problem but decide for yourself if this is something for you. You also buy and cook your own food, with exceptions of some products like milk, eggs, bread. The actual training with guidance is not a lot of times. I left earlier.

I really enjoyed my stay at Hacienda Pambasinchi. I met incredible people from all over the world and the locals were just so kind and giving. I really felt at home.
The work was harder than I expected especially because of all the walking that was needed to change the horses of fields, but it was so fulfilling. We had a little issue with our beds but otherwise everything was perfect. The horses were great too. I really recommend this place if you like to walk, meet new people, want to learn spanish, know how to ride horses and are open-minded. This experience will leave you speechless!

I worked for Alejandro, a friend of Rodrigo. He is very lovely, generous and experienced with horses. I was training his 8 horses for two weeks. I had my own room and bathroom. If you are willing to work and are a very good and experienced rider - this is a truly great place. If you are rather looking for a "chill place" to just have a good time with horses - you'd better look somewhere else! Alejandro has a lot of energy and showed me around in Quito and the riding clubs during my stay with him. I have had a very good time at his place and can recommend him to good riders by heart ❤️

Hola Eva,

Lamento no haber podido conocerte, pero siempre me asegure de que estes bien con Alejo. Las chicas francesas no son parte de ninguna plataforma, Alejo me dijo que son ociosas y sin experiencia. Era la obligación de alejo forzarles a trabajar o dejar el lugar, de hecho se lo dije más de una vez, pero él, por su buen corazón no lo hizo.
A nombre de Alejo, te agradezco muchisimo por tu ayuda, el estuvo muy feliz de recibirte. Puedes volver cuando tu quieras, sera un gusto.

I had an amazing 6 weeks at Pambasinchi. The horses were really nice and gained a lot of riding experience. Rodrigo doesn’t live on the farm but he visited us weekly and took us out for dinner and in the morning yoga and breakfast. He also practiced horsemanship and explained it to us what was really nice. Jose and Veronica are both nice and if you needed something they helped you. It was my first volunteer experience and it was definitely a good one! I recommend it.
For questions don’t hesitated to asks me!
