Our TOP 5 reasons to travel on horseback at different paces |
1) At halt: you can get SO close to the wildlife and have time to enjoy the moment.
2) At walk: by slowing it down you also calm down yourself and relax into your holiday.
3) At trot: you cover the ground so much faster than if you were on a walking safari.
4) At canter: just imagine cantering in amongst a herd of zebra...
5) At gallop: for the sheer thrill of speed!

Our TOP 5 reasons for choosing a riding safari for your honeymoon rather than lying on a beach... |
1) You don't have to talk to your new husband all the time, you can also talk to your horse.
2) It is important that a man knows how to ride so that you can share many more riding safaris in the years to come (make sure he has lessons before riding in Africa)
3) You can lie on a beach when you are much older.
4) A riding safari will be so much more fun!
5) "The outside of a horse is good for the inside of a man" - Winston Churchill.
