A thoroughly enjoyable trip with great instructors on lovely horses. What a treat! - We booked a 2 hour horse ride through the vineyards as a way to get to see the landscape and have a lovely experience. There were 4 of us in our group, one was a very experienced rider and the other 3 had ridden but not for a while . The communication with Louise in advance was excellent. We met in the grounds of the vineyard, where there was a nice cafe and restaurant so we could get breakfast before our trip. The instructor was simply excellent and he soon got to know us and our abilities. The horses were lovely, very healthy and a pleasure to ride. Each of us were very satisfied and thoroughly enjoyed the trip. This trip was a real treat and one of the highlights of our time in South Africa.

Unmissable - My son and I did a two hour ride in the vineyards and it was the highlight of our holiday. Lou is amazing company. The horses are beautiful and well trained (definitely not bored plod along ponies) the scenery is spectacular. We walked trotted and cantered through the countryside and I kept having to pinch myself. This is an unmissable experience!

Great ride! - Rudi took us on a great ride, told us a lot and explained things. Although we all have different levels of riding experience, we all had fun. Thank you very much for the great morning!

Excellent ride! - Stunning scenery, wonderful well cared for horses, kind and patient guides who do a very good job explaining the basics of riding and how to treat the horses well. Able to take experienced riders and beginners so everyone can go at the right pace for an enjoyable and fun ride. Highly recommend!

Beautiful horse ride through the vineyards - It was a very beautiful environment and the horses looked very good. The guide was nice and knew what he was talking about. A very nice memory/experience all around!

10 star experience!!! - What a nice way of spending some time in the vineyards. I was lucky enough to be the only one on the tour with Tequila (horse) and one of the owners (Rudi?) that day, so I had plenty of opportunities to ask questions and learn about the quite unpleasant past of the horses as well as about the steps taken to rescue them. One could clearly see that the present owners care about the horses and their wellbeing. An absolutely worthwile (and informative) trip to beautiful Stellenbosch vineyards on horseback in nice company. Thank you!!!

Slightly disappointing experience - Very beautiful landscape, but no explanation or comment from the guide. It was a little dry and boring, we just took a horseback ride, nothing more!

A very average experience - A very average experience louise not the friendliest or welcoming kinda felt as if she wanted to be somewhere else very disinterested. Plus trek was just through some fields of vines and back . Not worth the money or time getting there
