You do have to be very confident and be able to ride western which I don’t usually as I’m a British rider. The ride I went on was fast! However, you can go as slow or as fast as you like! I went on my own private ride because I was out of season and quite honestly I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way! We went all through traditional village, Megalochori and then onto…”

We were positioned to not only get some great photos but watched their interactions with each other from a safe distance. Cannot recommend it enough. The horses are beautiful and Jen’s personality and friendliness was icing on the cake! Would definitely do it again.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 42 reviews · 2h 30m · from $64

Join a small group of up to six for a 2.5-hour e-bike safari from Aigues Mortes. Guide Hugo may lead you through vineyards, marshes, and canals, with stops for Camargue horses, bulls, birds, plants, and local traditions. Bikes and helmets are provided.

“It was nice mostly because of the weather and the scenery. Hugo, our guide, is a very nice guy. But the bikes were too big for my partner and I, we would have appreciated options, that made the trip not uncomfortable. Provided informations regarding dates about buildings etc. we're too approximate, we would have appreciated more specific knowledge, at least that what I'd expect from a guided tour, it can't be loose about history. So overall, it is a bit too expensive for what it is.”

“Abholung war perfekt. Leider hat man mit Hinweis auf Wetter einen “Spaziergang” mit Guide im Stil “Kinder-Pony-Reiten” gemacht. Dh der Guide spazierte ZUFUSS und hielt erste Reiterin am Zügel 🤦‍♂️Als erfahrene Reiter wissen wir, dass bei starkem Wind Pferde scheuen können. Soweit das Verständnis für die Massnahme. Allerdings wehte die knappe Stunde im Wald kein Lüftchen. Besonders ärgerlich war, dass der Guide jedesmal, wenn wir nicht exakt hinter dem am Zügel geführten Pferd hertrotteten, sondern mal einen etwas anderen Bogen gegangen sind, um wenigsten etwas „wir reiten“-Gefühl zu haben, harsch meckerte … Schade: Die Pferde sind eigentlich sehr tolle Reitpferde, die - anders als viele “Gru...”
