Damara Ride - Namibia

Damara Elephant Safari

5 star rating   24 June 2023

Yvette who has been on 4 In The Saddle rides. As close as I will come to roughing it, and it was worth it! | The riding was brilliant, lots of wide open space for long canters and gallops, sometimes for kilometres at a time. The horses were willing and responsive and well-matched to their riders.

Do you have any comments about the accommodation and food?

The variety of delicious food that was produced over a campfire was incredible, and there was always dessert, that alone would keep me happy. The swags were cosy and the team did a great job providing a hot shower at the end of the day.

This was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Andrew was a great host and he and his team do a brilliant job. The horses were clearly happy and well cared for. Stunning terrain and we saw elephants so I guess the trip did what it said on the box!
