A little more time and energy is well spent on this half-day ride. Enjoy a half-day Horse Trail and Wine Tasting on horseback and Michelle’s choice of Winery, in South Africa’s most celebrated Franschhoek wine valley. A unique way to explore the area, this adventurous trail takes you through the working farm and vineyards, climbing up into the mountainous area ending up at our spectacular viewpoint. From there we make our way back down for wine tasting at one of our acclaimed Wine Estates. One or two tastings can be arranged on this ride, but we do prefer to spend more time in the saddle however. We will contact you for your chosen preference before the ride. Our expert guides adjust the group’s pace according to your riding experience and skill, always considering horse and rider safety.
Whether you are an experienced rider wanting a fast and exhilarating canter down open farm tracks and mountain passes, or just a novice wanting a relaxing meander on a steady horse to get a different perspective of the magnificent scenery, you will have a great experience. We take care in pairing the most suitable horse to the rider’s skill level to ensure you have a comfortable ride guaranteed to leave you invigorated.
Want to mark a special occasion? Whether it’s a marriage proposal, corporate team building or just a group of friends wanting a different kind of day out, we’ll put together a memorable day ride set against the magnificent Great Drakenstein Mountains and full of local flavour. Day rides make a great birthday gift too!

We had the best time with Michelle! The beautiful day began with riding great horses - not treading, stable-type horses but horses with personalities. The country that Michelle took us through was stunning! And then the wine tasting! Michelle is quite the expert on wines and taught us about different ways to taste wine - especially the aromas. One in our group said, "This really was the best horse-riding experience I ever had". I have already recommended doing this ride to multiple people on our trip. I hope they do it and have as wonderful a time as we had! - Virginia
What a fabulous experience. We chose the 2 hour ride with the wine tasting and it was fantastic. Chantelle was a brilliant guide. Very knowledgeable about the area and really fun to be with. The horses are top quality; responsive, well behaved and in extremely good condition. The route we took involved lots of different types of terrain and was scenically beautiful. The wine tasting was fun, and although we tasted 6 different wines, and we were able to ride back to the main yard without any problems! I would thoroughly recommend this experience to anyone, whether experienced or novice rider. - Mrs
We had a wonderful Fife with very good horses and lovely guides. The wine tasting was very enjoyable too. I'd thoroughly recommend it to any level of rider - Hilary
Great fun! Felt always safe. Had two guides for our small group. Nice combination with wine tasting. Scenic views. Value for money. - Susanne
So much fun seeing you again after 10 years. A lovely ride and very nice wines. I hope to see you soon again and maybe do a beach ride. //Ullis - Ullis
