Description

This is the ride that changes what people think a safari is. Giraffe and zebra read a horse as another animal, not as an engine, so they hold their ground and let you come closer than any vehicle would manage.

You are matched to a horse that suits your experience, and the pace follows the group. Riders who have never been on a horse are welcome; so are people who ride every week.

Five to six hours on horseback, plus private transfers from your hotel, with the guide, the gear and a meal included.

Amazing! Even as a first-time rider, I felt completely comfortable and safe on this horseback safari. The guide explained everything clearly, and the horses were calm and easy to ride. It was a relaxed and enjoyable experience and the highlight of my trip!

We had such an incredible experience. Our driver was on time and friendly, and all the staff at the stables were lovely. The horses were well looked after and our guide was very friendly and professional. We had such a great ride and the whole experience was amazing.
