Miyak Tribe Trail - North Macedonia

Miyak Tribe Trail

5 star rating   18 August 2024

Dru who has been on 9 In The Saddle rides. A fantastic holiday in the Northern Macedonian Mountains | The horses were very well looked after and were fun to ride at all speeds. My horse was sure-footed over often rocky terrain and easy to mount and dis-mount from. The guides were very competent and helpful and it was a luxury not having to tack up or groom the horses yourself. The western-style saddles were very comfortable over long distances and the saddle bags were easy to use and didn't slide around when cantering. The long canters across the grassy plains were great fun and we mostly didn't have to stay in a line, meaning we had the freedom to go at our own pace and not worry about overtaking the guide! The whole trip was very well organised.

The accommodation was very good and the food was outstanding. The food supplied during the trail was of high quality, well presented and more than plenty to go around. The food at the hotels was excellent too.

The only downside is that my case is still stuck somewhere in transit with damp riding gear in it. I'm yet to find out what's happened to it! However, this is no reflection on the trip or In The Saddle - rather Austrian Airlines.
[Becky from In The Saddle replies: Oh no, I'm sorry to hear about your luggage, I hope it's found soon.]
