‘The River Valley Ride is the best ride I have ever done! I felt safe and supported; the horses were happy and healthy, and the countryside was sublime! OMG – the food was so fresh, and there was so much of it. There were so many options to choose from and some fantastic desserts as well. Straight from the veggie patch to the plate! The guides had a very high level of horsemanship and knowledge of the area; you could always approach them with questions, and nothing ever seemed to be too much for them. The reason I chose this ride was because of the length. With eight days in the saddle, you get to bond more with your horse and get into a daily rhythm. Towards the end of the ride, you are more aware of your surroundings. Riding through the rivers was just wonderful; my horse, Alfie, was brave and calm, and there was a real sense of magic and peace with horses and humans. Just WOW!’
