Private Tuscan Horseback Ride with Farm-to-Table Aperitivo

I had the most amazing experience horseback riding from pickup to drop off. Francesco our driver was absolutely amazing and presented us with so much helpful and useful information about Florence and the Tuscany region. He also allowed us to stop for pictures on our way to horseback riding! Once arriving to the farm, we explored and got to see all the animals. It was such a great experience. For horseback riding our tour guide was David and he was also really great! He had great conversation and also allowed us to stop for pictures and even took pictures of us to share! It was my first time riding and I felt very safe and comfortable. This was an unforgettable experience that I highly recommend!

The people were very kind and it was a beautiful farm. However, the horses were very poorly trained. Our family has been on many trail rides, and this is the first time we’ve been bitten, attempted to be thrown off multiple times, and seen our guide literally get thrown off his horse. The only people who checked on us after this experience was the guide and one of the men who worked in the stable. Our driver was also very kind but the drive was extremely dangerous and also terrifying. He was weaving in and out of traffic, illegally passing cars, speeding, and gave us severe motion sickness. Not to mention one of the seatbelts didn’t work. I would not recommend this experience to anyone.
