Staff was really friendly. Highly recommended.Posted on AneKTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeździłam konno w kilku różnych krajach i szczerze mówiąc, było to naprawdę wyjątkowe doświadczenie. Półtoragodzinna, zaawansowana jazda po albańskich górach to coś zupełnie innego niż typowa turystyczna przejażdżka konna. Okolica jest niesamowita — góry i doliny, przejazd przez rzekę w dolinie, galop po otwartym, płaskim terenie, podjazdy pod górę, a nawet pokonywanie stromych górskich zboczy. Każdy fragment trasy sprawia, że jazda jest ekscytująca i niezapomniana. Albańskie konie są również niezwykle dobrze przystosowane do tego rodzaju terenu. Są przyzwyczajone do chodzenia i biegania po kamienistym podłożu i w górach, a dodatkowo mają specjalne podkowy lub buty, które pozwalają im bezpiecznie i pewnie poruszać się po kamieniach. Dla osób przyzwyczajonych do jazdy głównie po płaskim terenie może to być zaskoczeniem, a nawet szokiem. Mój profesjonalny przewodnik naprawdę kocha konie i przyrodę, co było wyraźnie widać podczas całej przejażdżki i stworzyło wyjątkową, pełną dobrej energii atmosferę. Dziękuję mu za niezapomnianą przejażdżkę, fantastyczną atmosferę, prawdziwy galop oraz zadbanie o każdy szczegół, dzięki czemu jazda była tak przyjemna. Super stajnia, świetne wyposażenie — jest tu wszystko, czego potrzeba, a o konie naprawdę się dba. Na pewno tutaj wrócę 👍🏼Posted on Louis CmnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nous avons fait la ballade privatisée, c'était super, la guide (on se rappelle pas du prénom) elle s'est vraiment adaptée à nous. Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés 😁Posted on Suzanna KhalatianTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Guide was really nice, well kept horses, real fun experiencePosted on gogo maroTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely phenomenal, the real, raw horse adventure I’ve been looking for! I’ve done more than a dozen 5+ day horse rides across Europe, as well as many others on different continents, and I can honestly say this was one of the most raw, authentic and unforgettable rides I’ve ever experienced. This is good old fashioned horse trail riding at its absolute best. It feels wild, real and completely unspoilt, the kind of riding that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. I loved every single minute of it. Before coming to Albania, I had heard so many scary stories about the country. Almost none of them matched my experience. In fact, I felt safer here than in many places I’ve travelled to in Europe. One moment really summed it up. After cantering through a busy holiday town by the beach, surrounded by tourists, we stopped for lunch and a swim. All 12 of us, together with the staff, went off to enjoy ourselves while the horses were left outside with all our saddles and personal belongings completely unattended. Honestly, if you left that amount of expensive riding gear and personal belongings unattended for a few hours in many European towns, I’m pretty sure you’d come back to an empty spot. Here, everything was exactly where we left it. That sense of safety and trust was something I experienced repeatedly throughout the trip. Even walking back to our guesthouse late at night felt completely effortless and safe. And then there was the riding. So much cantering. Through forests, across mountains, along beaches and through landscapes that seemed to get more spectacular every day. There were moments when I just thought, how lucky am I to be riding here? The horses were fantastic, the trails were incredible, and the whole experience felt like a genuine adventure rather than a packaged tourist ride. The staff and hosts were equally amazing, incredibly welcoming, warm, helpful and genuinely lovely people. They made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Food was sensational!!!! And somehow, we were also incredibly lucky with our group. Twelve people from completely different backgrounds who somehow clicked, laughed, rode and adventured together. I came home having made friendships that I genuinely believe will last a lifetime. If you love horses, adventure, beautiful landscapes and real trail riding, I cannot recommend this experience highly enough. Don’t overthink it. Don’t wait. Book it. I’ve ridden in a lot of incredible places around the world, and there is honestly nothing quite like this. The only negative I noticed during the trip was the amount of rubbish left around parts of the country. It’s such a shame because the natural landscapes are absolutely spectacular, and keeping them clean would make Albania even more incredible. Thank you to the entire team for an unforgettable adventure. I loved every minute. ❤️🐎
