Falls in Love

This amazing 8-Day riding tour will take you to the hilly landscape of Colinas de Garzon, the amazing coast of the Atlantic Ocean and charming countryside trails on company of some of the best horses you will ever meet! Uruguay is a small friendly country of experiences, a country to enjoy the simple things of life (which sometimes turn out to be the greatest!)… You can relax and enjoy things like good fresh food cultivated by locals, a cooking class with a worldwide famous local chef who will received you at his home, fine good wines made by passionate owners, virgin beaches visited by everyone (which really means “not many”), and music from the heart like Tango and Candombe. In the native traditions that existed in our lands before the arrival of the Spaniards, the horse was a symbol of power, endurance and freedom. In those cultures, the horse signified loyalty, love and the unwavering faith of the warrior spirit that understands the power achieved through true cooperation. We invite you to get to know our horses and learn how to bond with them through communication. Horses are an integral part of nature, and its passage doesn’t disturb the environment around us, enabling us to enter natural reserves, forests and beaches without disturbing the animals living in these areas.
