I had scheduled a horseback ride on the beach through Nicki - a most welcome change from the Land & Sea Tour ofered by
DCL. We had a private ride along the beach with Grand Cayman history and insights from our host and guide: Nicki. Her tours are not to be missed! She is not offered by DCL because of insurance requirements which tend to discriminate against small business operations. Nicki would rather stay small anyway and receives most of her clientel from local resorts. I am glad we found her and strongly urge anyone going to Grand Cayman to contact Nicki's Horseback Rides. She picked us up at The Hard Rock Cafe and returned us there when the ride was over. When we told Nicki about our disaster with the Land & Sea Tour, Nicki took us - for no extra charge - to see areas where the houses were beautiful rather than the poverty sights offered by the other tour guide with no explanation. Nicki saved our shore excursion from being a total waste and turned it into one of the most satisfying experiences I ever had the opportunity to relate to others. By all means, if you are going to grand cayman, reserve a ride with her.
