Ethical Treatment & Humane practices:
When curating our rides, we grant the most careful consideration to the tour operators and guides we will collaborate with. Upon each partnership created, we meet and spend time with the guides in order to ensure their horses are well cared for, with regular health check-ups, proper nutrition, and ample rest periods.
Trustful relationships with our partners are the foundation of our approach. We grant a lot of importance to ensuring the whole riding team shares our commitment to ethical riding practices & the well-being of the horses.
Local Partnerships:
When crafting our horse riding holidays, we prioritize community engagement by partnering with local businesses and artisans. When possible, the culinary experiences we propose are selected in order to collaborate with local chefs and farms to provide meals that reflect the region’s culinary traditions, supporting local agriculture and reducing our environmental impact.
This approach ensures that our guests enjoy authentic experiences while also supporting the local economy.
Low-Impact Rides:
Beyond the inherently environmentally-friendly nature of horse riding travel, our holidays are carefully designed to minimize our ecological footprint. Our rides have been designed to have a minimal environmental impact. For our riding circuits, we use state-established trails to ensure our rides do not disturb sensitive ecosystems or unspoiled habitats.
Waste Management:
We follow a strict “leave no trace” policy, ensuring that all waste is properly disposed of or recycled during the rides.
Crafting you an itinerary suited to your desires and expectations is our top priority. Whether you are interested in a half-day horseback outing or a more extended equestrian trek, plan the journey with non-riders or any special inquiries - name it - we have got you covered.
At Nomad Riders, we understand that every rider comes with a unique set of skills and experiences in equestrian practice. That is why we have tailored and selected rides designed to cater to all equestrian levels, from beginners to experienced riders. Our certified instructors are trained to adapt to your level, ensuring that you get the most out of your equestrian trek.
Our certified instructors are not just experts in equestrian disciplines; they are also passionate about teaching and sharing their love for horseback riding. Whether you're an intermediate or experienced rider, our instructors provide personalized guidance to meet your specific needs. With their expertise, you can confidently enjoy your trip and focus on the magic of the moment.
Behind every curated ride lies an intricate process of selection, where we exercise utmost diligence in choosing the trails you will ride through. Our goal is to provide not only a memorable riding experience but also breathtaking views that enhance the overall journey, ensuring every path chosen offers a harmonious blend of natural beauty and safe, enjoyable riding conditions.
Our mission is to accommodate riders with diverse horse-riding backgrounds and offer the opportunity to anyone – from beginners to advanced riders – to enjoy the unique experience of traveling on horseback. This is why we have designed and selected horse holidays that cater to riders from different levels:
If you are looking for a « first-time in the saddle » experience, we recommend exploring The Imperial Heritage Ride in Fontainebleau, France or Versailles & Its gardens on Horseback – both tailored to suit both novices and experienced riders. These rides are crafted with gentle and calm horses, navigating mostly flat lands to provide a more relaxed introduction to horse-riding tours.
If you are seeking a more challenging and exhilarating ride, consider options such as The Royal Marwar Safari in Rajasthan, India; or The Tölt, Glacier, and Well-being in Iceland; or Venice & The Dolomites on Horseback in Italy. These holidays are designed for more fit and experienced riders as they feature spirited horse breeds, navigating rough terrains, with long canters and more time spent in the saddle.
If you find yourself uncertain about your horse-riding experience, we are here to help and assist you.
