Great for riders - I had an amazing time, and while the pace is customizable to riding level, I definitely recommend booking only if you have previous experience. The horses were sweet and well trained though, well cared for and worked really hard to make it fun. It was a cute ride through the village, the caldera and the beach gallop of course was amazing. Great for solo riders or small groups!

Best horse riding abroad experience!! - I had the most wonderful, amazing experience with Santorini horse riding. An experience I will never forgot! Highly recommend booking your ride around sunset, it was just perfect. From riding up to the town, to the most beautiful view point overlooking Santorini, to galloping on the beach as the sun was setting, returning back to the stables with an orange and pink sky. The horses couldn’t have been more well behaved. All the staff were so welcoming and great! My lovely ride leader was very nice, took many great pictures with the views, told us much about the town and history whilst on our trek. We galloped loads which was very fun! I have done much horse riding abroad and this has been the best by far.
Thank you so much!

Best excursion of my life! - Favorite activity I did on my trip to Europe. I am an experienced horseback rider, but have not galloped in a while. I brought my husband who is not very experienced (never cantered). Luckly, we ended up being the only couple on the tour and the guide was very kind and reassuring, make sure he was comfortable with he speed. We rode horseback through a town and was the coolest experience, we felt like we were in a movie. Once down to the beach he had my husband refrain from galloping and the guide and I took off down the black sand beach. Coolest experience of my life! You definingly should have prior experience for this.

Such a great beautiful time - Hands down best ride I’ve been on. My fiancé and I have horses at home but we don’t have trails like this- it was like riding through a Star Wars movie- desert sand cliffs with caves in them, George was a great photographer, we’ll have pictures to remind us of this unforgettable experience the rest of our lives 🥰🇬🇷

Stunning riding! - Having had a very dull experience riding on holiday before, this was anything but. George was our leader and it was my 13 year old daughter and me (we've both been riding for several years). We walked down to a black beach and then galloped back along it and cantered up a hill. Then over towards the caldera edge. Several gallops and canters of different durations. Very fresh and well looked after horses who were a delight to ride. Western saddles. The ride took 2 hours and we came back through Megalochori which is a stunning village where we were staying. Would thoroughly recommend.

A dream come true - Santorini Horse Riding far exceeded all of my expectations and provided an experience that I will cherish forever. Riding on a beach had been on my bucket list for years, but I could never have imagined just how amazing it would be with them.
Riding along the stunning Santorini coastline was nothing short of magical. The views were breathtaking, and the sensation of riding through the sand with the waves crashing nearby was a dream come true. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, making sure everyone in the group was having the best possible time.
This experience was everything I had hoped for and more. Santorini Horse Riding made a lifelong dream come true in the most wonderful way. I highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Santorini—it’s an unforgettable adventure that you don’t want to miss!
