Top Sicily Horseback Riding

So excellent!!! The team super good and immediate support. I want to do it again.

We had such a lovely experience. The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating. The trail was so beautiful. Absolutely recommend to both beginner and experienced riders!

We had the best experience!! Marco picked us up from the cruise port and drove us to our horseback riding experience. His English was impeccable and he was extremely knowledgeable about the area! He gave us some history and interesting facts on the drive to the stables. Once we arrived at horseback riding, we met with Sabrina and our horses. The horses were very well mannered and obviously well cared for. Since it was my son’s first time riding a horse, one of the guides was kind enough to lead him. We had amazing views of mount Etna and the countryside while riding! We stopped for lunch and had a local specialty- everything was delicious and Marco made sure we were comfortable and happy throughout. I cannot recommend this excursion enough, it was the highlight of our trip!

Amazing views! Well behaved and well taken care of horses. Would highly recommend. And the lunch was outstanding.

There were no reviews on this post, but my boyfriend and I decided to give it a shot, we ended up having a great time! Friendly guides and a stunning view, the horses were a blast and didn’t require much work in knowing where to go (as expected from trail horses) but definitely had a little bit of hustle when you asked them to. We had a blast and would recommend this experience to anyone looking for a fun thing to do near Catania!

Our guide Omar made the day so special. He drove us through the quant towns from Taormina and shared his vast knowledge along the way. The lunch was delicious at a spot we would have never found on our own. Such a treat.

Corrado was incredible and extremely knowledgeable of all of the history of the towns and Sicily. Horseback riding was so fun and the wine tasting was fantastic. The views were breathtaking.

Beautiful horseback riding in the countryside and woods of Modica. Very kind and professional staff. We recommend it. Thank you so much

Relaxing walk in the middle of nature with very good and attentive instructors. Sweet horses. To recommend the tour operator Sicilian holidays tour, for the organization. 5 stars. ⭐️ 🐎

The owners of the horse ranch were lovely. Their young son spoke excellent English and had very nice manners. He walked along side the horses and told us about the area.

The horseback riding was a fantastic experience for us. The horses were beautiful and well trained. Our leader Salvatore was kind and professional, he showed us incredible hospitality. The farm was clean and well run. The ride itself was the perfect pace and had many breathtaking views. The only reason that I didn’t give it a five is that the website showed a 4 hour duration for the price but it was really only for an hour so just double check when you book so you aren’t surprised. I would highly recommend this experience for riders of all experience levels.

We had an amazing day. Our guide Corrado was wonderful. He picked us up at our hotel and took us to the Hidalgo Ranch run by Sabrina and her wonderful family who took us on a fantastic trail ride. After the ride we were taken to an excellent local Sicilian restaurant for a delicious lunch. After lunch Corrado drove us up to the Mt Etna area where we hiked among volcanic lava flows and explored craters and caves. It was a great day to explore the Mt. Etna area, ride horses in the Sicilian countryside and have a delicious meal. Corrado is extremely knowledgeable of the history and geography of Mt. Etna which was a surprise bonus!

Fantastic experience with super friendly and helpful instructors. We were followed immediately after Reservation and assisted step by step for the duration of the excursion in a breathtaking place like Modica.

Our guide, Marco, was awesome! Not only was he on time, he was personable when sharing the many interesting facts about Sicily, the people, and the culture. Seeing the countryside by horseback was definitely out of our comfort zone, yet we found it to be relaxing and enjoyed every minute of it. Remember to bring sunscreen, shoes that you're okay with getting dirty, long pants (to protect your legs), and sunglasses (depending on the weather).As for the traditional Sicilian lunch, be prepared to have a feast! Starting out with a glass of your choice of red or white wine. Our appetizer was equivalent to that of a charcuterie board! Given the size of the platter, we thought it was our meal. We proceeded to indulge in over 85% of the platter, as we could not possibly finish it between the three of us. As I sat there, while in conversation, I noticed the owner placed a small bowl of parmesan cheese on the table. I was of the belief that it was by mistake; however, it turned out, it was not! Next up was our macaroni with red sauce. Our American macaroni is not the same as the Sicilian macaroni and, without a doubt, falls short of the flavorful Sicilian version!! Once we were done with the main entree, we were offered dessert. Although I felt I could not possibly have anything else, I opted for the limoncello dessert. Needless to say, it did not disappoint!We are eternally grateful for Marco and urge others to step out of their comfort zone to try something out of the ordinary...totally worth it!

I am not a horseback riding person but our guide Sabrina was very kind and led me and my horse around.

We had a fantastic experience with this tour. Our guide - Maurizio - was incredible, the horseback ride was stunning (and the owners' son gave us three eggs that we had our hotel cook for us at breakfast!) and the lunch was delicious and filling for the belly and the soul.
