HORSE RIDING LESSONS

We offer private lessons for riders for adults and children who are just beginning to try the waters.
Basic level lessons for beginners: You will learn to clean, brush and saddle a horse, and you will improve your skills on the saddle.

CHILDREN’S HORSE RIDING PROGRAMMES

Our staff (and ponies!) have years of experience teaching children to ride.

For children, aged 3 and above, we propose an experience of gaining confidence with the pony or horse, followed by a short pony trekking or horse riding, lasting about 40 minutes, where children, accompanied by a guide on foot, are able to enjoy their baptism on the saddle safely. For those who are more adventurous…also one hour trail rides are possible!
Games and fun on the saddle is what distinguishes our lessons with horses, where children aged from 4 to 6 years can learn more about the world of horses by having fun.

Amazing time horse back riding in Tuscany

My daughter, son-in-law, 3 grandchildren and I had an outstanding time horse back riding in Tuscany. The people were very helpful, the horses were tame and the views were beautiful. I would highly recommend doing this if time permits.

Wonderful trailride in beautiful landscape

Me and my two daughters of 10 and 12 years old went for a twohour trailride in the countryside with Alice and her husband as guides! There were both bigger and smaller horses and they were so well-trained, even beginners can handle them! We rode thru the fantastic Tuscan landscape in the sunset and it was absolutely magical!! Alice speaks very good english and told us about their work with taking care of abandoned animals! This evening was one of the best moments of our vacation!

A genuine Tuscan experience

Horse riding through the Tuscan hills is a must do! From Riding Tuscany’s excellent reviews, we contacted the owner through email before our holiday. From the beginning Alice was very helpful and informative and we chose to do the 2 hour trek with sunset picnic.

The ride itself was wonderful. Riding through the peaceful and beautiful Tuscan countryside is an experience hard to forget. Alice ensured we were comfortable on our horses and led the way brilliantly. She spoke excellent English and we had a great conversation with her about everything. It was lovely speaking with Alice and getting a local’s insight into this area.

Alice was very kind to email us later that evening with recommendations and places to visit in the area. We took her advice and found some beautiful hidden gems.

Thank you all very much for a wonderful evening.
