Jocelyn (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Botswana mobile safari - disappointing due to stand-in guide | Everyone in group disappointed that guide allowed only a walking pace. Much of the terrain was too rough for anything else but there were always some places suitable for a faster pace and the excellent local back rider said it was not normal to just walk all the time. Stand-in guide John said that was his orders from David Foot but this seemed unlikely.
By day 4 everyone was bored.

Angela who has been on 2 In The Saddle rides. Wonderful | Amazingly fit horses. Well fed and cared for so you could relax and fully enjoy the experience with your chosen mount.
Seeing all the wonderful wildlife quietly `doing their thing` was extraordinary.
The lead rider instilled so much confidence with his calm, caring approach.

Nathalie (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Amazing! | Excellent

Maria (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Pure magic! | Excellent

Dotsky who has been on 10 In The Saddle rides. kei river mouth and Okavango Mobile safari | Long gallops on miles of empty beaches on the South African Wild coast followed by a week camping in Okavango with amazing wildlife viewing. The highlight? Galloping with a herd of giraffe, followed by zebra and wildebeest.
