Truly unforgettable experience - This was probably one of the best things I’ve gotten to do in Italy! It was my first time ever riding a horse, and Giuseppe was a really helpful instructor. The vineyards were amazing, and afterwards I was driven to the wine distillery. The wine was so good and I had an amazing view of the Gulf of Naples!

A highlight of our holiday! - This experience was wonderful! We were picked up and whisked away to the horse riding centre. The horses were well looked after and very easy to ride. The ride through the vineyards was lovely, definitely suitable for people who haven’t ridden much before, perhaps a little too tame if you are an experienced rider. The wine tasting was at a different location and we were blown away by the whole thing. We had an amazing lunch - far more food than we expected and all delicious. About every 10 minutes we were given another very generous taster glass of another wine and they were very varied and delicious. This was a real highlight of our holiday.

La dolce vita with 2 italian angels - Gennaro and Giuseppe, the brothers of tastetheexperience, offered us the most Amazing and humane experience of our trip on the amalfitan coast. We missed the pompeii visit because of a cancelled train and lack of a green pass, but they were very comprehensive and arranging and proposed us to come back the next day without any additional fee. They took us by car to join the other group to a marvelous wine dégustation and visit on a vesuvio grapeyard with adorable producers who explained everything to us starting by a welcoming glass of rosé. We then had a delicioso napolitan coffee at the stable before an Express horse mounting training followed by the most fabulous horse riding on the grapeyards of the side of the vesuvio. We had so much fun and human connections that we felt more like it was a day with new nice friends rather than a paid activity. No hurry, no stress, only incredible sceneries with passionnate people. Grazzie mille and.feel free to contact us if you come by Paris !

Awesome experience with the perk of good wine! - This experience was amazing. Giuseppe is the perfect host for this experience. He was polite, welcoming, and fun to talk with. He led us on horseback around the property, with their little dog running alongside us. The scenic ride was fun and memorable. Then it concludes with a wine tasting and a delicious platter of food in the restaurant/wine area with amazing 360 views of the property. We're glad we experienced this and highly recommend it.

Highlight of Pompeii - We had an amazing time with Guiseppe today! He was extremely helpful and fun talking to and the horses were lovely and suitable for beginners as well. We rode through beautiful wine fields where he shared his knowledge about growing crops. We tasted some amazing wine and enjoyed the most beautiful view! This trip was definitely the highlight of our journey through Italy!

A truly unique horseback riding and vineyard experience on the foothills of Vesuvius - We had an amazing time horse riding around the vineyards of Vesuvius and trying the local wine. Giuseppe was extremely friendly and helpful and the horse riding was such a lovely experience. He had a lot of knowledge to share with us about the area and the local produce and culture. The horses were lovely and we felt very comfortable with them though we hadn’t ridden horses in a long time. The wine tasting was also great. The location is spectacular, the wines delicious and they gave us a generous amount of food. We thought the experience was really great value for money and would highly recommend it!
