Alexandra was a wonderful guide and very knowledgeable. Instructions were very clear and they even let us negotiate pickup and drop off.
Will definitely be bringing the whole family next time, as they can accommodate children as young as seven years old.

Amazing experience! Picked up from Pompei ruins, brought straight to the vineyard for a beautiful lunch. After this we headed to the riding centre, the instucter Alexia was very friendly and kind, the horses were all well looked after and happy. We had a lovely trek through the vineyards. The riders with more experience were allowed hold back and have a canter and at the end we had a canter around the arena! Couldn't recommend it enough for horsey and non horsey people!!
Response from the operator · Giuseppe F Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you had such an amazing day, from the lunch at the vineyard to the trek through the vines. The happiness and well-being of our horses mean the world to us, so it is wonderful to know that came across. Alexia will be delighted to hear your compliments regarding her kindness and hospitality. We hope to welcome you back for another ride soon!
