These are just a small number of the countries you can visit with Far & Ride:
Australia Horse Riding Holidays
Although nearly as large as US, Australia has less than a tenth of its population which leaves plenty of space for riding and there are many rights-of-way for horses in scenic areas. Australia has some of the finest horses in the world and horseback is a wonderful way to see this magnificent country. Canter along the beach, ride through tropical rainforest trails, and ride into the wonderful Australian Bush to muster cattle. You will be amazed at the scenery and wildlife - kangaroos, koalas and hundreds of native Australian birds.
Bulgaria Horse Riding Holidays
A small country with a truly unique natural environment; a scenic landscape with an abundance of rivers, lakes and mineral springs that are rich plant and animal life. It provides a remarkable experience on horseback whilst learning about local culture, history and their architectural diversity which unarguably makes for an attractive horse riding package. A destination not to be missed by any horse rider. There are programmes to suit all here including great family programmes!
Croatia Horse Riding Holidays
A country that is fast becoming a popular and exciting holiday destination. Far and Ride now offer three riding destinations in Croatia. Adventurous trails can be enjoyed in the rural part of Dalmatia, an area close to Split where you will experience amazing and stunning views along untouched natural terrain. The trail programmes at the 'Dalmatian Coast ride' are for the experienced rider, whereas 'Bosko's ranch' offers a more comfortable stationary programme suited to all levels of rider and non riding guests. For a different experience with a slight 'Tuscan' influence then why not visit the Magic of Istria in the north-west of Croatia.
India Horse Riding Holidays
A vast land of great contrasts, reaching over 3000 km from top to bottom. With three very different horse riding opportunities now on offer in this spectacular country varied experiences are seemingly endless. Enjoy the luxury rides in Rajasthan which can be tailor made to suit individual needs or explore the undiscovered Malwa Plain and its very attractive and varied landscape with much wildlife to offer. The plain offers an ideal riding terrain which is particularly attractive in spring time, as it is the flowering period for the Flame Tree. If a challenging and exciting trail is more your thing then why not discover Ladakh. A trail for the tough and adventurous rider taking you through the south-eastern Tibetan plateau of Changtang. This is often referred to as one of the harshest living environments on earth and is the place the hardy tribe of Changpas call home.
Jordan Horse Riding Holidays
For many visitors to Jordan the ancient city of Petra is without doubt the most spectacular, unmissable sight, battling it out with Machu Picchu or Angkor Wat for the title of the world's most dramatic 'lost city'. Jordan is a land of mesmerising beauty and contrasts. Visitors can explore splendid deserts and the haunting wilderness of the Wadi Rum from the back of a horse. Just imagine you are riding an Arabian horse across the vast landscape from Petra to Wadi Rum - a unique experience.
Namibia (Africa) Horse Riding Holidays
Namibia owes its name to the Namib Desert, a unique geological feature renowned for the pristine and haunting quality of its landscape. It is a country of compelling beauty, abundant sunshine and a feeling of unconfined space.
