Most beautiful experience of our trip in Sofia - The horse trip was definitely one of the absolute highlights of our Sofia trip and is 100% recommended! Elisabeth, the manager, was incredibly polite, attentive and accommodating. Already in advance she contacted us via WhatsApp and gave us all important information, e.g. on the appropriate clothing. She even had extra change shoes or things for us that can get dirty without us asking for them. She also offered us helmets, brought water and even cloths so we could clean our hands and shoes – really exceptionally attentive. We were picked up directly at our apartment and brought back again, which made everything very relaxed. Photos of us were also taken on request. We especially loved how well the horses were selected to match the riding experience. Less experienced riders got quieter horses, and those who wanted to or had no experience could even be guided. As a result, everything was very individually adapted to us and accordingly so fun. The route was also beautiful – perfect nature for horseback riding and just an unforgettable experience. Since we were only a small group of five people, the atmosphere was also very pleasant. All in all, the trip was worth every penny, fairly designed and above all something very special due to Elisabeth's special and warm service.

Incredible experience!!! I could not have had a more amazing time on this tour. - This horse riding experience is a must do if you are looking to get away from the cities and to see the gorgeous countryside of Bulgaria. Elisabeth is the very lovely guide who handles this experience and she picked me up from a hotel and we drove down together. When horse riding she made sure i was comfortable and happy the entire time and even let me have a lot of control while riding back. She is always attentive and positive and i am so glad i found this experience as it truly made my trip to Bulgaria special. Huge thank you to Elisabeth😊

Amazing experience - Really lovely experience! Elisabeth was great at communication and picked my friend and me up from our hotel. Elisabeth was super friendly and accommodating. After a quick one hour drive we made it to the land to ride the horses. The horses were really well taken care of and friendly. Our ride was very scenic and Elisabeth was great at taking pictures and videos of the experience. I really enjoyed this experience and would highly recommend to anyone traveling to Sofia.

Highlight of My Trip! - I had an amazing time from start to finish. I booked a solo horse-riding experience through the mountains with Elizabeth, and it was truly unforgettable. She was incredibly kind and friendly, and even surprised me with a chocolate for my birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. The horses were wonderful and clearly very well cared for. This was definitely one of the best experiences and a must-do activity!

Had a great time - Had the best time. We did the 2 hr lake side view and it was amazing. The guilds were also so nice :)

My Favorite Sofia Adventure! - What a beautiful experience! The scenery was gorgeous, the guide was alert to ensure everyone's safety, and the horses easy to handle. Will definitely go again in the future. Highly recommend!

Lovely ride through the Bulgarian countryside - Elisabeth is a lovely guide and very welcoming! The horses are very amenable and would suit beginners. It would have been nice to have a slightly longer ride/more varied trail, so if experienced I would recommend the longer day rides. Still enjoyed it and would recommend if you have time when visiting Sofia. 🙂 Also to note, no need to worry about helmet or riding boots. Chaps and helmet provided if needed!

Perfect harmony between man, horse and nature - We met with the guide outside our hotel to reach the starting point of the walk together. The drive was pleasant: we got to talk and get to know each other and thus to live the walk in tune later. Before getting in the saddle they left us some time with the horses, to get to know them and make us known, after which they explained the basics for a correct riding setup, so that the mount could be as comfortable for us and for the horses. During the walk the more experienced riders were left free to gallop where the terrain lent itself, with some precautions regarding the individual characters of each horse. We then made a long stop to feed the horses: this time was used by the guides to take many souvenir photos and record videos. Once we got back on track, they explained that all the routes are designed to allow the horse to experience nature as it would in the wild: we were not forbidden to let them eat from the surrounding plants and grass, to let them get close to each other, both during the stops and during the walk, to leave the line to make them walk at their own speed and let them explore the flat area without losing sight of the group. At the end the whole experience was suitable for experts and beginners, without limiting the experts, avoiding making the walk boring, and without abandoning beginners, among whom the most insecure were flanked by a second guide who helped them carry the horse via a rope. The organizers of the event thought of everything: water, helmets, gaiters and gloves. Booking the 17:00 walk we were able to watch the sunset from the hill, not suffer the heat even wearing long pants and closed shoes and return to the hotel before 21:00. Surely this is the right place if you are looking for an experience that respects both people and animals and, above all, does not see animals only as a source of income.

Best memory in Bulgaria - Best memory in Bulgaria 🇧🇬 The scenery was so wonderful and it was a place I longed to be, so it is a great memory. The horses were friendly, smart and very easy to ride! I love to run with horses, so I'm very happy! They have different courses, so I'd love to go again!!!

If you love horses and nature, this trail ride is a must! - Fantastic experience on well-trained, well-loved horses! We are experienced riders with years of having our own horses, and often on trail rides like this, the horses go head to tail, plodding at a walk. We are usually itching to let our horse trot or canter, but that is rarely allowed. Our guide, Elisabeth, encouraged us to trot and canter, and the horses willingly did so. There were four in our group, and three of us could ride well, but with Elisabeth's instructions and pairing of the new rider on a lovely, mannerly mare, we all got to safely put the horses through the paces. On our three-hour excursion, we rode across meadows to the top of a hill, overlooking a beautiful lake, with a centuries old tiny chapel that is still a popular spot for local pilgrimages today. We had a lunch break there before riding back. If you get to ride Atlas, a stout little bay gelding (my mount), or Huron, a big paint gelding (my husband's mount), give them a hug for us.
