Nice experience - A lovely peaceful experience away from the hustle of Pompeii. It was like being in a different world. Well looked after and well behaved horses which was excellent for two beginners and two intermediate riders. The scope of the experience was a bit confusing though between what we thought was the company website and the information from booking through TripAdvisor and the associated reviews. There were no refreshments/wine tasting after and the tour was not very long, and no opportunity to canter in the school/groom the horses afterwards as mentioned. In fact we felt a little whisked away from the horses and back into the van at the end. Otherwise worth the experience as long as you are aware of what you are getting.

10/10 recommend - Definitely recommend! I'm going to book again so I can do the experience with food. I'm actually afraid of horses(well was) but they make you so comfortable I didn't even think about. We tried different grapes and figs along the way. It was actually very nice. And the fact that it included transportation is amazing!

Beautiful ride through the vineyards - We had a wonderful afternoon on the farm and a fantastic ride through the vineyards with Alessandra. Guiseppe welcomed us warmly and showed us the farm. The horses were very nice and in very good condition. Alessandra has been a great companion and told us a lot about the beautiful area. We felt very safe with her and she is a very good rider. Thanks for everything! Grazie mille!💕

Very Fun. Horseback is a great way to see the views. - This tour was fun. Not really on Mount Vesuvius, but you can see Mount Vesuvius several miles away. Beautiful area. A little strange that our guides were not on horseback, but were walking alongside us as we rode. I would’ve liked to trot or canter a little. This ride is perfect for beginners.
