This opportunity will invite you to connect with these magnificent creatures (horses) in a way that diverges drastically from traditional violent and coercive methods. All of this unfolds within the beautiful boundaries of the Vesuvius National Park.

Break from nature and relaxation at the ranch. - Arrived EN metro then train rapi DE m EN t at DE pollena station (we stayed in napoli spagnoli district) Carlos picked us up by car for 15 minutes drive. Then we got acquainted with our g frames EN shaped, shiny dresses, in his ranch planted with apricot and olive trees. A beautiful bala DE in this natural bush made us discover the geology of peripheral craters of the widowhood and the view of Naples and its bay. Then we tasted DE bruschettas DE homemade tomatoes, accompanied by mozzarela di Buffala, olives and artisan white wine from the widow. It was very nice and authentic DE share this with Carlo. I recommend both for experienced riders and beginners. Thanks again!

Truly an amazing experience - Excellent experience, I couldn't recommend it more! The organiser, Carlo, is really friendly and helpful, he updated me all the way up to the trip, came to pick me up at the station, and made sure I was okay the whole time of the trip and even served homemade wine, bruschetta, Vesuvio tomato and mozzarella It was truly an amazing experience. The horses were also very well behaved and clearly taken care of, we gave them a nice watering and lots of treats after we came back. Truly a wonderful time and I definitely recommend trying it out!

A beautiful experience - Carlos was an amazing and accommodating host, we were running very late due to our transportation not showing up and he very kindly waited an hour for us. I had never been on a horse before and was nervous but became more relaxed quickly after the initial tutorial session, it was more simple than I thought and me and my partner both loved it! The views are incredible, we had lots of pictures taken throughout, and the food generously served after was delicious too. Thank you Carlos!

Best horse riding place - What a great tour! Carlo was so kind and respectful towards both the guests and his horses. The horses dont't live in stables, but in a paddock and can be outside the whole day. Costa was the perfect horse for a beginner and Bamboletta was super sweet and friendly. Thank you for that amazing trip in the national parc!

Couldn’t be better. - 11/10, couldn’t be better. Carlos and Victoria were amazing, welcoming and kind. I rode with my daughter and as it was here first time her horse was tethered to Carlos’. Our ride was around 2 hours which was more than enough, Carlos showed us around volcanos and explained everything thoroughly. Thanks so much to you guys for the experience. Will be back again when I visit Italy.

Fantastic experience - The experience in Carlo's riding school lasted a whole morning and was fantastic!
After a first reception with a good coffee, he introduced us to the horses and we had a short riding lesson in the riding school.
The guided hike in the Vesuvius National Park was impeccable! He told us about the history and curiosities of the place.
Everything ended with a delicious aperitif with typical products.
Riding small, but beautiful and well cared for, equipped with all the essentials, with fabulous animals (lots of horses, ponies and two dogs).
Carlo; kind, professional and extremely available.
We will definitely be back.
Highly recommended!

It was an experience I will never forget! - It was such a nice trip, I'm still really delighted. Carlo was very kind and the horses were calm and happy. I've had the feeling that the horses are living really well cared which was important to me.
It was a truly inspiring landscape and Carlo gave some interesting informations about the different locations. I also felt safe on the horse, before riding out, I learned a bit about the techniques that I needed to ride. After the ride-out, Carlo offered Bruschetta with tomatoes, mozzarella di bufala and olives, which I didn't expect - it was delicious and very kind.
It was an experience I will never forget! Thank you!
