Riding Holiday

5 star rating   12 September 2024

Rosamund who has been on 4 In The Saddle rides. Classical riding on exceptional Lusitano horses | A game changer for me, expert riding instruction from Mario. He tuned into how I ride and how I want to improve, the teaching was detailed and wonderfully challenging. A very satisfying sense if achievement and ideas to think over after each lesson.
The Lusitano horses were beautifully trained and besides riding them, I enjoyed watching the staff schooling them.

Lisbon Airport was larger and busier than I expected, so it took me longer to find the transfer meeting place.
