Fantastic!

It was such a great experience. As we don’t ride we were a bit nervous but as soon as we met the girls and they talked us through everything, our nerves vanished! It was an amazing ride with gorgeous scenery, the horses were beautiful and so placid, and Elle was a fantastic guide! It was just such a great experience. Highly recommend. If getting there in a van or motor home, definitely allow plenty of time because of the roads. It took us just under an hour from Arrowtown and probably 20-30 minutes from when we hit Queenstown =)
