Zakynthos, or Zante, is a popular Greek island located in the Ionian Sea. It is renowned for its stunning landscapes, with turquoise waters, dramatic cliffs, and pristine beaches. This horseback riding trip in Zante is the perfect way to explore the island's vibrant natural beauty!
The adventure begins at the starting point in Zakynthos, where you'll meet your certified instructor at the stables. They will provide all of the necessary safety equipment for horse riding and introduce you to the friendly horses. No previous horseback riding experience is needed to participate; the excursion will start with thorough instructions, and an experienced guide will accompany you throughout the ride. Once everyone is saddled up and ready to go, the horseback ride in Zakynthos begins!
For this experience, you may choose between different options. A 3-hour adventure including a swimming experience with the horses, or 2 shorter tours that only include horseback riding without swimming (1 hour or 2 hours)
All experiences are suitable for all levels, whether you are an experienced rider or a beginner. Each trail will start from the stable, and will be lead by your experienced horse riding instructor, ensuring your comfort and safety at all times. At a leisurely pace, you'll enjoy the unspoiled nature as you pass lush pine forests, rugged countryside paths, and mesmerizing panoramic views.
If you choose the 3 hour swimming experience, you will ride towards a secluded beach where you will enjoy a unique swimming experience in Zakynthos! While horseback riding, you'll guide your horse straight into the sea and experience the incredible sensation of swimming together in the crystal-clear waters. Feel the excitement and pleasure as you and your horse move as one through the gentle waves. Afterwards, you'll return to the stables in Zante.
Don't miss this magnificent horseback riding trip in Zakynthos - a rare opportunity to swim side-by-side with these remarkable animals!
