The experience
The ride takes you through the hills of Pelago, just a few kilometers from Florence, on trails surrounded by nature and typical Tuscan landscapes. Your horse is gentle and well-trained, which is why the experience works for first-time riders as well as those with some experience. An experienced instructor leads the group and stays with you throughout, so you're not navigating alone. You'll need to wear long pants and closed-toe shoes, which you bring yourself. Everything else (saddle, bridle, helmet, all the riding gear) is provided on site.
The ride lasts one hour. Depending on which option you choose at checkout, you can either head back to the start after the ride, or stay for a traditional aperitif to wind down and take in the surroundings. The guide speaks English or Italian, and children are welcome from age 10 onward.
