Reviewed By travel_vale1 - London, United Kingdom

My partner and I, both beginners, went for a 2-hour walk on horses and truly loved it. The horses are beautiful, very well-trained and easy to ride. The trails are stunning, with panoramic views over the sea, some steep downhill paths that dive deep into the Mediterranean shrubs, and open meadows where you can spot wildlife, including fallow deer and foxes. We also found a wolf skull and a deer leg on the trail which made the whole experience more thrilling. Daniele, the guide was very friendly, patient and a skilled instructor. We each rode our own horse, which alongside the small number of people in the group (there were 5 of us in total, including Daniele leading the way) made us feel very much in touch with nature. The whole experience felt like an adventure into the wild, but felt completely safe. It was a fantastic evening and we highly recommend it!

Reviewed By farfalla77 - Florence, Italy

Stunning location immersed in the verdant hills of Tuscany - for me a 1.5hr drive from Florence and absolutely worth every minute. Easy to find, really well-kept facilities and happy horses with so much space. I had a delicious lunch in the fantastic Club House thanks to Bianca's amazing fettuccine al sugo di cinta senese and a tasting platter of cold meats made from their farm of this special and rare type of pig. (The prosciutto is the best I have ever tasted and the closest thing to the one-of-a-kind Spanish delicacy Pata negra). After lunch a horse trek with Ross who is such a wonderful person and so good at putting you at ease - it had been 10 years since I had been on a horse - excellent clear directions and we chatted like old friends for the trek which started as one hour then I was enjoying it so much, extended it to 2 hours. Beautiful black Dora was my horse and we crossed little streams, covered wide open pastures, descended through cool forest and climbed gentle hills. Great day out and highly recommended. Grazie tanto Bianca e Ross e a presto!
