Serene Experience

Iqbal_H, Apr 2024

Was picked up promptly from our hotel with WhatsApp updates and without delays. Arrived at the destination high up in the hills where we were briefed on the whole tour and paid £1 for lockers to store valuables. Helmets were then strapped up and we were then provided instructions on how to mount the horse and take control of the reigns. The ride began and was excellent. You get to traverse through the forest and get partially submerged in the river (about knee deep) so remember to wear some suitable footwear. Do not bring trainers. You may feed the horses and other animals at the end of the ride if you wish. They like apples. I'd recommend the experience and the owner is very accommodating and honest so thought I'd purchase the pics. I'd do it again if I come come back to the region. A photographer is present throughout the whole ride taking photos so you can decide to purchase them and keep memories at the end of the ride. Food and beverage are also available to purchase from the bar.

Horseback riding

Tia_H, Apr 2024

Very friendly staff apart from one but didn't let him ruin the experience. The gent who did the brief was lovely, had me trotting and a small gallop as I had a young horse who had only just started out. I will say the gent driving the minibus needs speaking too, had an argument with another mini bus driver, reversing down entire roads, flinging the van around corners (with children onboard) and at one point not even driving in a lane constantly answering his phone. Overall, I'd do it again.

Really good experience....

Paul_T, Oct 2023

Really good experience. Horses were looked after and the staff were polite and clearly interested in the horses

Very enjoyable

Katie_L, Sep 2023

The staff were very attentive and made sure each person was comfortable and gave instructions when needed during the trek. It was a casual pace and going through the water was really enjoyable. Make sure you have good footwear and shoes you don’t mind getting wet. I would recommend using insect repellent.

Great crew

Fabulous horse ride in beautiful location, Marmaris.

Emma_B, Jun 2023

This was a lovely experience. I was picked up and dropped punctually with no fuss, the journey up into the hills gave spectacular views over Marmaris but didn’t take long. The stables themselves were great and spacious and the horses were well looked after. There was a family of geese and rabbits and goats around also. The horse riding itself was beautiful and the staff were all very informative and helpful. The other riders were mostly novices but I heard them gushing about their experience and talking about buying a horse! The guys drive round on a quad bike taking pics to sell after the experience which you just have to accept is part of their business. I was happy to do so. The horse ride itself was not overly long but through gorgeous scenery, birds flying above, I saw a heron fishing and lots of colourful dragonflies and even a turtle swimming in the river! Afterwards you had an opportunity to buy some apples to feed your horse and take photos. There is food and refreshments available. I’d recommend you wear sensible shoes you don’t mind getting wet and maybe long trousers although one woman literally had on a beach outfit and flip flops! I’d treat this as an introduction to riding but there are opportunities to book further 1:1 lessons or riding on the beach. Our guide ibrahim was very informative and helpful. They tell everyone to call all of them ‘hey’ for ease which I understand but found impersonal. There was one little boy who was only about 2 who didn’t like the experience and they just took him on the quad bike with no fuss which he absolutely loved. Thank you to my horse Aisha. Highly recommend. Thank you so much, I had a fabulous time. EB UK

Asia K, Nov 2017

The horse-riding trip was a scenic and refreshing experience as we drove up to a place called Pinar, and it was quite brisk. We were able to buy food for the horses after the ride optional which I thought would be quite nice, so I did. It was for all abilities and so the group was a mixture of adults and children with the instructors at hand if needed. We rode through the countryside and went through the river and it was a fun yet relaxing experience. When we got back to the station and I was going to feed the horse another starving horse came over almost felt like she was going to run me over!! Turns out she was starving so i fed her instead. Some of the horses looked starved and overworked, its a shame really cos a few of them were exceptionally groomed.

Lovely horse riding experience. Good...

Ahmerah K, Aug 2016

Lovely horse riding experience. Good for first timers to experience horse riding cheaply. However our tour guide was very unfriendly and a bit of a power freak. Would never go back there.
