Safari Rides
Horseback safaris are a dream for a large number of riders who would love the chance to ride with a variety of spectacular game and wildlife. The majority of horseback safari holidays are aimed at experienced riders who can cope with the demands of long hours in the saddle, exhilarating riding and with the potential dangers of riding amongst wild animals. They are often point to point trail rides during which you travel between different safari camps where you can indulge in a little relaxation and pampering at the end of the day. Such safaris are usually considered a luxury riding holiday due to the standards of accommodation, food and the riding opportunities they involve.

There is nothing so memorable as galloping with giraffes, riding amongst rhino or perhaps spying on hippos in their resident lake. Encounters with the 'big five' are particularly exciting - rhino, leopard, buffalo, lion and elephant. For those with less experience then you are not excluded - there are safari destinations where the less seasoned rider can get up close to some fantastic wildlife, usually whilst taking part in a based stay. Riding in Africa is a popular choice for honeymooners as it is undeniably a special experience and some destinations even offer the option to get married there!
Safari destinations often have several rides on offer which means that riders can start out with the tamer rides, exploring areas rich in the less daunting game, before taking on a more exhilarating challenge and encountering some of the big predators. Whichever type of safari holiday you choose, it is guaranteed to be something very special. Just don't forget your camera!
