I hadn't ridden a horse in a long time and was very nervous but the horses and guide were very good! After we got back from our ride, they even made us tea and we got to warm up by the fire! Highly recommend to anyone!”

“Not what we were expecting it was a long horse walk and was led along by the girl holding the lead of the horse in single file. Not even a trot. Red Valley was the highlight for scenery but apart from that it was awful. We stopped not so we could take advantage of the view and take photos but It was just for the horses to eat the grass. There were hundreds of quad bikes tearing around so it was noisy and fumes not peaceful as expected. They didn’t speak English and we were just led along. The saddles were loose so you felt like you were falling off.…”
