Best experience ever

Adele_M, Nov 2024

This is a definite MUST if you want to experience the beauty of Vitosha mountain as well as experience horse riding in the wild. They took exception care of me during the entire ride. The horses are so good. Happy and fit! They know their job and look after you. I was lucky enough to experience the ride in snow all the way up and back down the mountain. A dream come true for me. If I ever get the opportunity to visit Bulgaria again this would be my first stop to ride and say hi to Vento - the horse I got to ride. This experience was a real childhood dream come true for me.

Unforgettable experience, must try in lifetime.

Great tour operator who arrange everything for my needs because of my delayed air flight. Nice horseback riding assistant who ride behind me to look after me. Perfect environment and view of the riding. The best horseback riding guide who is a real expert and qualified with competition award. Really great teaching, I learned galloping in one day, which I don't have any experience on riding. She is passionate, friendly and with hospitality. 200% recommend this experience.
