Suitable for tourists with no previous experience in horse riding, yoga, or meditation, this 1.5-hour tour offers a unique opportunity to connect deeply with our gentle horses in the heart of Serra de São Mamede Natural Park. Travelers walk alongside these sociable animals on shaded trails, cultivating empathy, non-verbal communication, and a profound sense of harmony with nature. Then, they unwind with a 50-minute outdoor yoga and meditation practice, reducing stress and anxiety, stretching their bodies, and fostering lasting physical and mental well-being. That is incredible — like the cosmos is giving you a handshake!

We are a family business working on the border between Spain and Portugal. We have always had horses. Most of the current ones are the descendants of our family's horses, so they too are like family to us. For the long tours, we use the young ones, well behaved and of course very beautiful!
I am your main tour guide and also an archaeologist, so I will explain to you every historical item we see in our routes (there will be plenty!).
Looking forward to meeting you!

- JJamesabout provider29 Feb, 2024My girlfriend and I had an amazing time during our vacation. Sara and her family were incredibly welcoming and skilled, and we were matched perfectly with our horses. As a novice rider, this experience left me eager to return. The ride offered stunning views of the scenery, and wildlife with Sara providing knowledgeable guidance throughout. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by - you won't be let down ❤️

- LLauraabout provider12 Apr, 2023Sara and her family gave us the most unforgettable tour of Portugal. This was our last adventure after traveling through various regions of Portugal (Porto-Douro-Madeira-Alentejo) and the tour was truly enchanting. The horseback ride was challenging, but the well-trained and well-cared-for horses gave us, my husband, and our 11-year-old son the confidence to enjoy the experience. Since returning to the USA, we can't stop talking about it. The entire experience, from start to finish, was breathtaking and a definite must for anyone exploring Alentejo! We can't wait to return!
