I had a wonderful few hours with Marc in the mountains. The were well behaved, the route was spectacular, challenging enough to get a thrill but I never felt unsafe as the were gentle and well behaved and Marc was an assuring host and guide. Also the drive back was epic. Such a memorable day in the mountains. Marc was an outstanding and the were calm and friendly. He gave us clear instructions and tips for how to handle the horses. We did a 2 hour beginner as a family of four and our youngest, who is 8, had never ridden before. It was my daughter’s birthday and while she was a little nervous he made her safe and calm - he was so knowledgeable about the and its history and related well with the kids - they were so excited and proud of themselves afterwards. The terrain was magnificent and Marc took us through a range of trails and up to stunning lookouts. This was a real highlight of our in Andalusia! Best horse in Andalusia! Marc is an excellent who caters the to the client. I had an amazing adventure with breathtaking views. It was the thrill of our trip! This was an absolutely fantastic activity. I've never ridden, but Marc was patient and helpful allowing a marvellous in stunning scenery. I cannot recommend this highly enough! Beautiful that know their territory really well. I'd definitely like to return. I had the most incredible with my girlfriend in the most beautiful surroundings of El Chorro, Andalusia. Beautiful with great temperament. Our Marc was impeccable with good information of history flora and fauna. You are really connected with nature. The perfect day. Thanks 😊 What a fabulous this was! I had a private two hour trek and it was the best part of my trip. I hadn't ridden since childhood but Marc made me super comfortable - his warmth, patience, humour, passion and knowledge of the is what made this so wonderful and unique. You won't find a better in Spain! The are beautiful and are extremely well looked after and happy. I particularly loved the galloping and at times when I just got lost in the scenery and feeling of freedom. I highly recommend and want to go back again! Had a really incredible doing the 2-hour trail with my husband on our honeymoon in late September. First off, Mark offered to pick us up from the train station which was such a lifesaver as we thought we would have to try and find a car rental or service. Then upon arriving to his property, the love Mark has for his animals (both dogs and horses) is really apparent. He speaks to them in such a kind way that you know they live amazing lives and are well taken care of — an essential for me. As someone who rode for fun as a kid but did nothing past a canter on a horse, I was worried that the would be a bit slow as my husband has never ridden and I figured Mark would default to the less experienced rider’s preferences. But I think Mark sizes people up pretty quickly and could tell my husband’s balance and athleticism would allow us to have a more fun ride. In short — he had us galloping up certain trails! I couldn’t believe how exciting this was. His knew every step and every turn and are incredibly used to taking his direction. It made trusting them really easy for us. There was nothing quite like galloping up the trails, talking with Mark about his with and living in Spain, and it was especially interesting to talk with Mark about the environmental changes he has noticed in El Chorro since moving there in the early 2000s as we walked past dead and dried out olive trees only to see thriving spruce trees, planted in the in the 1940s. Throughout the ride, he also pointed out and talked about the dwellings of people who used to live in the before they were kicked out in the middle of the 20th century. A who is willing to tell you the gritty history of their home is invaluable, and I can tell that Mark cares deeply for all people — something I quite admire. Thanks, Mark, for what I hope is NOT a once in a lifetime opportunity. I hope to be back again soon, and this for an even longer trail ride! Fabulous 2 hour just an hour from Malaga. We were a group of 4 with kids aged 11 and 13, one of whom had never ridden before. Marc was a great and made everyone very confident. Rocky mountains, beautiful views, pine forests, mountain goats and vultures. Highly recommend. All the tours here are private so you can do as much or as little as you want. The extreme options sound insane! a once in a lifetime with Marc and his beautiful horses! Highly recommended! Wow !! This gave me so much confidence which was down to Mark being such a good instructor , I’m still jumping up and down with excitement I’m buzzing thanku deffo will be back for more We had a such wonderful today with Marc. Neither my husband and I have done horse before, Marc gave us very clear and easy to follow instructions before we set off. During the 2 hour session, we felt so comfortable and relaxed. The are just so well trained. Marc is also very knowledgeable with the mountain trails and history of the area. This is definitely the highlight of our holiday and would highly recommend to friends and family. Dit is echt een enorme aanrader! Wat een geweldig en bijzondere ervaring. Ik heb zelf in het verleden paardgereden, maar dit was totaal niet te vergelijken met ‘gewoon’ paardrijden. Prachtige rit door de bergen onder zeer goede begeleiding van Marc. Een man met levenservaring, inlevingsvermogen, humor en geduld. Voor mij was het een grensverleggende en emotionele ervaring. Dankjewel Marc voor deze ervaring. The most fabulous horseback we have ever had. We are a family of four with kids at the age of 8 and 10. Two of us have been some before, the other two were beginners. Marc managed to give all of us a pure adventure on horseback while showing us the most scenic landscape imaginable. The were beautiful, well taken care of, and all of us felt so safe on them and with Marc. It was a big for all of us. I cannot recommend this enough! Det var mere end bare en ridetur, det var et eventyr, som min datter og jeg var på. Vores var helt fantastisk. Hestene så velplejede ud. Det var en ganske særlig oplevelse, som jeg aldrig glemmer. Increíble experiencia! Recomendado 👍🏻 Wow what an experience! I can’t wait to return. Superb experienced good quality horses. Marc was an excellent personable who made us all very relaxed. The scenery and trails were stunning. Thank you Marc and Rachel. Sådan bør man opleve El Chorro! Vi er en familie på 4 og en blanding af erfarne og nybegyndere på hesteryg. Alle er enige om at oplevelsen er udover det sædvanlige og begge piger på 9 og 12 år fik deres drøm opfyldt om at galopere i bjergene! Marc er en meget rolig og tryg guide. Hestene var som første prioritet for os meget velplejede og derudover også utrolig velredne. Vi nød den smukke udsigt trods lidt køligt vejr. Så tag en ekstra jakke med hvis du kommer i vintersæsonen. Kort sagt en oplevelse vi aldrig glemmer og som vi gerne gentager med en heldagstur hvis vi får muligheden for det! A beautiful for riders of all skill levels. My stepdaughter (8yrs) and I went out with Marc for a hack up one of the mountains. SD had little to no and it’s been over 20 years since I’ve ridden, Marc was incredibly kind and patient with my SD and spent a lot of explaining the around us to her. We were greeted by the friendliest group of doggos (some of whom accompanied us on the ride) which delighted SD, all the equipment necessary is provided and my partner went for a lovely hike while he waited for us to finish. The are extremely well trained and well looked after, and the is just gorgeous. This was easily the highlight of our in Spain and if you’re looking to have a slightly different adventure while visiting, I could not recommend the more. We rode twice with Marc (we loved it so much the first we went back a couple of days later) and had a fabulous time. The are well looked after, fit, responsive, well mannered and a joy to ride. in the spanish saddles you so safe, long canters through the forest tracks or winding down a steep path. The scenery is dramatic and beautiful. Marc is a great host making you at ease on the and full of interesting stories. I would highly recommend a out whatever your ability - you will love it. We hope to return again next year. Thanks Marc and of course to your amazing horses. Wow - had an amazing 3 hour through the scenic mountain trails with Marc who made me safe and secure to enjoy the ride. Marc's (especially his gorgeous mare Esperanza) are just wonderful and so well cared for. Marc was even kind enough to collect me from the train station which was hugely appreciated. The pictures tell all - best day of my trip. Thanks so much again Marc, hope to be back again in the future!
