Sierra Nevada - Spain

Alpujarra Ride

5 star rating   6 September 2025

Jette Vestergaard (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) We rode in the most amazing nature in beautiful sunshine. The trip was really well put together, where we came over new mountains every day. Dallas (the guide) had homemade lunch for us every day, which we ate while the horses rested. Really nice ride with competent guides, who had a lot of focus on the safety of both the riders and the horses.

We stayed at some really nice Spanish hotels, with a lovely pool, which was really good relaxation after many hours in the saddle.

A table was booked every day at the nicest Spanish restaurants with really delicious food.

How could we improve the quality of pre-holiday information that we send?

We have felt safe throughout with information about transportation. We arrived a little early in Malaga and spoke with Dallas.

She quickly guided us to take the train back and forth to Malaga, which was incredibly easy. Then we had the day to spend relaxing by the beach and the city until we were picked up at 5:30 PM


Do you have any other feedback for us?

A super good trip that I can highly recommend to anyone who wants a good experience.
