We booked a horseback tour through Excursion mania and the service was top notch. We were picked up and dropped off directly at our hotel, which made everything convenient. The ride itself lasted around two hours, taking us through the valley with a short break for drinks before heading back. Everything was well organized, and we had a really enjoyable day overall.

We had a wonderful ride over the cone-shaped hills. Ali at Flower Horse Farm was a great host. The horses, mostly Arab mixes, were well-trained and gentle. Murad was cheerful and passionate, and he clearly cared for the animals. We had enough time to take in the scenery, and the whole experience was peaceful and beautiful.

The views were absolutely stunning, but the guides didn’t really speak English. Apart from shouting instructions to control the horse, there was no real explanation or guidance during the ride. At times, it was difficult to follow what was going on and felt a bit disorganized. If it’s your first time riding a horse, I’d recommend being especially cautious.
