Thank you Steffi for making my dream come true: riding a horse along the beach!! We had an adventurous trip along the beach, up some hills and checking an old tower. The horses were so kind and easy to handle - just Fritz was a little bit lazy ;-)

Mixed feelings following my two-hour ride there. Gorgeous views on the trail with nice friendly horses. Our guide was Alicia (I hope the spelling is correct), an attentive, professional and lovely young lady. Upon our arrival we were greeted by the owner of the stables. I was a little surprised that she rolled her eyes at us when we mentioned the non-riders that were with me just wanted to wait in the shade on a bench (with water and a book, they wanted to do this). Basically made us feel it was stupid. When we arrived the horses were tied in the full sun. Maybe would be good to rethink the setting but that was just me maybe...also no mounting block (all equine osteopaths will agree that if you want to preserve your horse back, this is a must). Bring some water with you if possible. Other than that, really exceptionnal views. …

Had a wonderful 2 hour trek taking in the wonderful views of the beautiful beaches and countryside around Villasimius. Stephanie and the other staff at the riding centre were brilliant. It's probably a bit much for a complete novice but otherwise well worth doing whilst you are in Villasimius. …

If you consider to go for a horseback riding trip i strongly advice you NOT to book here. The lady is very rude and impatient. Before we left my horse refused to walk.

Rude staff Dangerous horses Unprofessional …

This 2 hour horse riding experience was truly fantastic! I haven’t ridden in many years and Stefi and her instructors showed patience and competence as we were given a short hands on lesson in the ring, before heading out into the stunning scenery of Villasimius. The western saddles are comfortable and easy to ride on, aimed at the holiday visitor looking for a memorable experience, rather than the expert horse-person. The horses are clearly loved and well cared for, they are very sure footed and know exactly what is expected of them. That said, I did get told off for not reigning in enough, no hard feelings though, as my instructor was completely correct, I had to do as I was told, as it’s all about being safe! The trek itself was amazing, rugged countryside, ruins, a saltwater lagoon, magical vistas, sightings of flamingos and parakeets..... We are returning to Sardinia next year and will be booking with Manneggio Tanka for a least one trek, if not two! …
