The best day ever!

I have never ridden a horse before and was honestly very excited but also quite scared. The team were amazing! As long as you are honest in your experience (in my case, zero) they will match you with the right horse and look after you from the get go. The ranch is beautiful and you can tell how the animals are cared for and mean everything to the team! I rode at sunrise , can not recommend this experience enough.

Schöne Erfahrung!

Wir haben bei Vigo Tours ganz unkompliziert gebucht. Da wir unerfahrene Reiter waren, hatten wir viele Fragen und die Kommunikation mit Vigo Tours verlief schnell und alle unsere Fragen wurden schnell beantwortet. Nach unserer Buchung bestätigte Vigo Tours die Buchung und teilte uns die Abholzeit von unserem Hotel per E-Mail mit. Sie kamen pünktlich, um uns am Tag der Aktivität von unserem Hotel abzuholen. Nach einer etwa 20-minütigen Fahrt kamen wir auf dem Pferdehof an. Die Pferde waren vorbereitet, als wir ankamen. Wir sahen, dass die Pferde sehr gesund und gepflegt waren. Außer uns waren noch 8 weitere Personen da. Das Personal im Stall gab jedem einen Helm und half uns mit einem Trittständer, auf die Pferde zu steigen. Dann machten wir uns langsam mit den Pferden auf den Weg. Vorne war ein erfahrener Reiter aus dem Stall, wir folgten ihm einer nach dem anderen und kamen etwa eine halbe Stunde später am Strand an. Wir ritten mit unseren Pferden am Strand entlang, parallel zum Meer, im Schrittmodus. Einige erfahrene Reiter galoppierten am Strand entlang. Wir ritten auch mit unseren Pferden in einem flachen Teil des Meeres entlang eines Strandabschnitts. Es waren auch Kinder im Alter von 7-8 Jahren in der Gruppe, und ein Mitarbeiter des Reitstalls begleitete sie zu Fuß. Am Strand stiegen wir kurz von unseren Pferden ab und ruhten uns ein wenig aus. Wir machten wunderschöne Fotos vom Sonnenuntergang. Dann machten wir uns wieder auf den Weg und kehrten auf demselben Weg zum Reitstall zurück. Wir erlebten eine unterhaltsame und sehr interessante Aktivität. Alle hatten viel Spaß. Alle Mitarbeiter halfen uns sehr. Sie sprachen gut Deutsch. Wie auf der Website von Vigo Tours geschrieben steht, wird empfohlen, für einen bequemen Reitausflug lange Shorts zu tragen. Nachdem wir zum Reitstall zurückgekehrt waren, brachten sie uns zurück zu unserem Hotel. Wir erlebten eine gute Aktivität, die das Geld wert war, das wir bezahlt haben. Wir empfehlen es jedem.

Everything was great!

For those looking for a one-of-a-kind horse riding experience in great company, this family-run business with a long history is the ideal option. I had my first ever horse ride with them yesterday and it was absolutely amazing. The tour guides you through the forest and along the coast, capturing beautiful souvenir photos along the way. The transfer to and from the location was also a pleasant ride with a kind driver. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!

Sehr empfehlenswert!

Der Transport vom Hotel zum und vom Veranstaltungsort ist im Preis inbegriffen. Die Reitumgebung ist wunderschön und es gibt Anleitungen für Reiter verschiedener Niveaus. Für absolute Anfänger besteht sogar die Möglichkeit, neben dem Pferd zu laufen. Am Strand kann man durch das Wasser traben (fantastisch!) oder für erfahrene Reiter galoppieren. Das Gefühl der Freiheit ist unvergleichlich. Fotos von Ihnen können für 20 Euro erworben werden. Der einzige Wermutstropfen war, dass nicht jeder eine Reitkappe erhielt, was jedoch auf Anfrage möglich war und der Freundlichkeit der Leute in der Reitschule keinen Abbruch tat. Die Pferde werden gut gepflegt und das Erlebnis ist auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen.

Best rides ever!

I've been riding for a couple of years and I was more than happy to have such an amazing experience in Side. The tour guide, Abdul, picked me up punctually at 5:30am from the hotel, we drove about 30 minutes to the stables where I found many and well taken care of horses. I was lucky to be the only guest that morning, therefore all my needs were taken care of. We started with a walk on the horse, then changed a faster trot, soon before we got to the beach we were already cantering and as so can guess, the first thing we did as soon as we were on the beach was to gallop! It was an unforgettable feeling of freedom. Even after over a week since the tour, I occasionally feel like I'm still flying. Thanks a lo to Abdul, the best guide I've ever had! I'd recommend the tour over and over again!

We would all definitely recommend!

My family and I had a fantastic horse ride. The stables were lovely and the horses are obviously very well cared for. The staff were attentive to our needs and really helpful in giving us the support and tuition we needed to make the most of our ride. My 11 year old daughter rides and was keen to gallop which they happily supported - she said it was the best day of her life! It was great value too and we would all definitely recommend.
