Greece is a wonderful choice for a horse riding holiday - a collection of sun-kissed islands surrounded by clear blue sea and spectacular mountains rising to 7600 ft. inland. Here there is still unlimited space to ride horses in the peace and beauty of nature. Ride in a land dotted with olive groves and ancient sites, way up into the rough mountains with breathtaking views,  swim in the clear blue waters and dry at an abandoned beach  abandoned beach. Be prepared for numerous surprises and for a strong sense of daily rhythms, for honest and warm hospitality. These characteristics are best discovered, not in seaside resorts, but mainly in the remote seaside and mountain villages. We have 2 destinations both accessible via direct flights from London : Crete Island and  Kephalonia.
In  Crete there is the superb  Lasiithi Trail from coast to coast over the mountains which can be done guided or unguided for those with more experience,  instruction for the less experienced and shorter hours of riding in the hotter time of years on the sun, sea and riding program to allow for beach time.
In Kephalonia  we offer a wonderful unspoilt location to the west of the island - the land of Captain Corelli's Mandolin. Here you can enjoy a riding week or undertake a week long trek around the beaches and mountains. Combinations with 2 or3 days trekking in the course of a week's stay are also possible. This is a highly recommended destination with beautiful weather, welcoming hosts and glorious riding opportunities.
