Cavalgadas particulares nos Balcãs de Sofia

This is a definite MUST if you want to experience the beauty of Vitosha mountain as well as experience horse riding in the wild. They took exception care of me during the entire ride. The horses are so good. Happy and fit! They know their job and look after you. I was lucky enough to experience the ride in snow all the way up and back down the mountain. A dream come true for me. If I ever get the opportunity to visit Bulgaria again this would be my first stop to ride and say hi to Vento - the horse I got to ride. This experience was a real childhood dream come true for me.

Quality horses breathtaking views and great guide. Highly recommended. See Bulgaria from different perspective.

DO THIS! Everyone is so nice and helpful, they even let me pick my horse. They went at a pace I was comfortable with, and as the day went on I got comfortable enough to canter! The horses are loved and cared for, very sure footed and stable. I wish I had more time to go back and ride again!

My guide was super nice, my horse was well-behaved and friendly, and the countryside was beautiful! The weather was misty and cold but I enjoyed it since I am from Los Angeles.

Great tour operator who arrange everything for my needs because of my delayed air flight. Nice horseback riding assistant who ride behind me to look after me. Perfect environment and view of the riding. The best horseback riding guide who is a real expert and qualified with competition award. Really great teaching, I learned galloping in one day, which I don't have any experience on riding. She is passionate, friendly and with hospitality. 200% recommend this experience.

This was a very nice trip. Our driver was pleasant and very informative. He provided lots of historical and cultural narratives. The riding experience provided an opportunity to get very close within the local community and travel along the beautiful country trail up the mountain and to the St. George Monastery.

First this was the original tour I booked but then due to the Popes visit and rain storms moving in Histro found me a riding tour in Samokov opposite direction with Rila Ranch in the gorgeous Rila range. He organized for a guide to get me at hotel take me on metro to ride down (About an hour from Sofia) on a bus with the local folks past the Lakes seeing more countryside views. Did I mention Bulgaria landscape is never ending beautiful. Then the fellow at the Ranch picked me up at bus stop took me ranch we waited a bit till rain cleared to spectacular blue skies highlighting the mountains, cow and sheep herder pastures we rode through. We saw horses with a baby too. He verified my riding ability and matched it with a horse perfectly making the ride safe and wonderful. The ladies I rode with were great the ranch is true, rustic working farm with horses, dogs and incredibly hospitable folks. I not only had the sweetest horse but was taken care of by a team of dedicated folks making it one of the most memorable vacation days I ever had. The rancher took me to the bus put me on the right one and my first guide was at bus to take me to metro and walk me back to my hotel. Histro goes above and beyond and is a skilled traveler organizer. When I go back to the Balkan I will definitely contact and refer his company to my friends and family. Hats off to Rila Ranch - I was even fed an amazing Bulgarian dinner before I left. Absolutely incredible!! I am sure the original tour would have been just as great.
