Sally (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Magical experience | I loved this holiday because the horses care and well being was priority, we got teamed up with our horse (perfect matches for everybody) and we were responsible for grooming, checking and tacking up our horses which I loved as you form such a close bond with your horse, by the end of the ride we were all lying down in the field with our sleeping horses, it was fantastic. The horses were very well trained but didn't just follow in line like riding school horses, they each had very individual characters which shone through showing that the horses are content and happy.
[Becky from In The Saddle replies: I'm so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed the riding and the horses - they are wonderful aren't they.]

Karina (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Kerstin was a fantastic guide. In addition to riding in fantastic terrain, we gained a lot of knowledge about the area and the Sami's challenges and way of life both in the past and today. An experience for life.

Sophie who has been on 3 In The Saddle rides. Sweden - Ratekjokk Trail | It was very different from my previous trips. Only due to the fact that you were more involved in horse care, food prep, washing up etc.

I always enjoy the no facilities part of it, makes it more back to basics. Washing in a freezing cold river, sitting by a camp fire is just refreshing and I love it.

[Abbie from In The Saddle replies: Many thanks for your feedback - we are so pleased you enjoyed your adventure in Sweden!]

Amy who has been on 13 In The Saddle rides. Satisfyingly peaceful yet still a great adventure | We had some very novice riders along, unfortunately, and we spent a Lot of time waiting for them to tack up, cross water, etc. Horses were happy to eat while waiting but it was still frustrating. Luckily we were never in a hurry but it would have been nice if the guide had addressed the issue. I absolutely was in love with my horse and would have brought him home! All the horses took very good care of us and I’m continually impressed by the Icelandics’ attitude, personality, sure-rootedness and charm.
