Gilva who has been on 5 In The Saddle rides. Transylvania Adventure | I had the most amazing experience .The guides ,logistic manager and horses were excellent. Time was taken to match horses to rider and when we were on the trail care was taken to ensure that we were comfortable and we were very well looked after as were the horses. The terrain was beautiful- through forests ,meadows and up onto the hills with far stretching views. For me the pace was perfect-trots ,canters some gallops but time also to take in what was around me. It was also fascinating to learn about the area and having time in Viscri was very special .I was a bit concerned prior to the ride that I would find it too physically challenging being a woman of more mature years although a regular rider. Yes, my legs did ache a bit after a long day in the saddle but I was very pleased to have challenged myself .I would highly recommend this trip and am are very grateful to the dream team of Catherine ,Jacqui and Marius from Equus Silvania and my riding companions.

Cathryn (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Fantastic trip | The horses were really lovely- their care was the number one consideration for the team there. They were extremely fit and responsive, and I felt mine were well matched.
The riding was great- day one wasn't the best riding as you were passing around the edges of towns and there was some litter- but by day two you reached the open countryside and it was wonderful. The days were long and some fast riding so you need to be fit!
The countryside and scenery was absolutely incredible and the guides were very good.

Charlotte who has been on 7 In The Saddle rides. Beautiful Autumn Ride | It was the end of season, but the horses were all still very keen. Great walks, trots, gallops. Varied terrain - never dull. The autumn colors were amazing.

Amanda who has been on 13 In The Saddle rides. Romania trail ride | Well paced, fun, fast riding through varied scenery- Sam was an excellent ride leader and we had great back up, especially from Silviou who always had everything ready to take care of both horses and riders at the end of the day.
I was very happy with both my horses.

Fiona (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Fast, Fun & Friendly | The horses were really well cared for, schooled in a menage between trails, so remained fresh and responsive. Very forward going which was a joy. Would have liked more jumping of 'natural obstacles'.

Naja who has been on 3 In The Saddle rides. Very strong, well-groomed, sweet and obedient horses. Riding was at times quite fast and for a long time, so you had to be a capable rider who does not mind high pace.

Antonia who has been on 5 In The Saddle rides. Amazing riding and fantastic horses | The riding was fast, adventurous and testing and I really enjoyed it.
[Becky from In The Saddle replied: We are so pleased to hear you enjoyed the riding!]
Rachel who has been on 2 In The Saddle rides. Wonderful! | What a memorable holiday - stunning scenery, well schooled but forward going horses, and knowledgeable and friendly guides. The countryside provided the best riding I have ever experienced, with few gates, open pastures, hilltop gallops and pretty villages. The accommodation was simple, but charming and always clean. A wonderful week!
