Balkan Rides - Bulgaria

The Devetaki Plateau

5 star rating   30 September 2023

Neil who has been on 23 In The Saddle rides. Excellent riding and great hosts | The riding was excellent, lots of long canters and more trot than you often get on a riding holiday.

The horses were all fit and forward-going, but still calm and sensible.

Do you have any other feedback for us?

It's a real family operation. The guides (Maria and Monica) were great, and Vasco was excellent as groom, driver, lunch provider, tour guide, host and sommelier.
