Description

Discover the perfect blend of adventure, culture, and cuisine in this exclusive full-day experience. Begin with a scenic horseback ride through Vesuvius's volcanic landscapes, where every trail offers stunning views of the Bay of Sorrento and ancient countryside. After working up an appetite on horseback, retreat to an authentic Vesuvian winery where volcanic soil creates wines with unique mineral flavors found nowhere else on earth. Your hosts will share family winemaking traditions while you savor a traditional Italian lunch paired with their finest vintages. This is the Italy you've dreamed of - adventure, authentic flavors, and landscapes that have inspired travelers for centuries, all in one magical day. Please note: The horseback ride is at a slow pace, it's meant to spend time with animals and admire the views, it's not suitable for those who would like to galop/ride fast

Superb Experience with excellent guides and driver

Excellent Horse Ride. Horses knew their job and looked after us. Scenery spectacular. Loved it. Sofia was a great host. Wine tasting was superb. Host very knowledgeable. Lovely wines and delicious food in a stunning location. Drivers punctual, polite and very accommodating. Thoroughly recommend both experiences

Something different than seeing the Ruins

The horseback riding was good. My horse was excellent ( English rider) , but 2 others in the group had a bit of trouble with their horses ( western riding) . It was only a 50 minute trail ride in the vineyards but it was still nice. I got to ride in the ring a bit to trot and cantor my horse, which was nice of them to let me do. I was the only one in the group whom was doing the wine tasting and lunch. So , was brought to a vineyard where they were set up outside (tent covering the lunch area) but right in the vineyard. There were others there, but I had a table for 1. The setting was beautiful. The wine tasting ( 5 wines and a Cantelope Limoncello at the end). All tastings were excellent. The lunch was also good and they accommodated me being a vegetarian. Everything was yummie. A definite must do if you want something different than seeing the ruins.

Horse, view, wine, food, and liquid dessert - HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This was so much fun! Even for beginners - I have been on a horse 3 times in my life, and I didn't have any difficulty following the instructions given by our guide. The landscape was beautiful - Vesuvius on one side, and the Bay of Naples on the other off in the distance. After the riding, we were driven to the wine tasting and lunch. The wine was delicious. The food was fantastic. The Limoncello and Meloncello were amazing. I would highly recommend this excursion!

local treasures gathered in one experience

It’s great that the plan Sofia was working for finally became a reality. Her ideas to put local treasures together are realized in the best way. I enjoyed the horse back riding in the beautiful landscape for the second time and wine tasting for the first. It made me proud that I brought my friend 😊. Her new team was excellent, too.

Truly unforgettable experience

This was probably one of the best things I’ve gotten to do in Italy! It was my first time ever riding a horse, and Giuseppe was a really helpful instructor. The vineyards were amazing, and afterwards I was driven to the wine distillery. The wine was so good and I had an amazing view of the Gulf of Naples!
