1. Weeklong Riding Program - the ultimate horse riding experience in Tarifa - 5 riding days!

A great opportunity to discover the unspoiled corners of our stunning region by horse back. The combination of white sandy beaches, the hills of the national park with panoramic views over to Africa is breathtaking. A cultural highlight is our day out in Jerez, which includes the show of 'The Dancing Horses' at the Royal School of Equestrian Art. This gives you the chance to admire the most highly schooled, beautiful Andalusian stallions. We ride 3-5 hours a day in small groups and you should be confident in all three paces. You will have your own horse for the week and become fully involved in grooming and tacking up.
