What People Are Saying About Us

This was a perfect way to top off a relaxing trip in Vic Falls. This isn’t a safari ride, but it IS a wonderful glimpse into life outside of the town. You ride through the bush and farmlands in an authentic Zimbabwean experience– complete with donkeys, goats, chickens, and stunning birdsong. Lisa and her team are kind, knowledgeable, and friendly. They genuinely care about people and horses, and safety is a priority. Riding out, you know you are in good hands (and hooves). I loved it so much I went back again before I had to fly home, and it will definitely be on my list of “to-dos” when I visit Victoria Falls
