    Had the most amazing day doing a club ride with Lize and using one of her horses. She is so responsible and attentive to everyone, and her horses are so well suited. Can’t wait to be back for more!!

    We did the hour and half trail on 23 July. I found it a bit expensive for what we got. I found the trail a bit boring but the short piece in the forest was really pretty. I found the horses to be VERY underweight which left me wondering how I could justify an outride on them. I felt terribly guilty riding them and I am not a heavy weight. The horses looked down trodden and their tack was also ill fitting. The guide was very pleasant and had clearly done this ride many times. The horse he rode was shockingly underweight. The horses did not look anything like the horses advertised on the website. I was very disappointed!

    Thank you to Ryno and staff for making our daughter's holiday dream come true when she went on your 3-hour forest outrides in Dec. She enjoyed every minute thereof. Swimming in the dam on horseback was such a highlight. She loved the horses's personalities. It was good to know that she could live out her passion for horses in an environment where she felt safe. We can really recommend the outrides at Garden Route Horse Trails. Ryno is a very experienced horse trainer. He has good judgement when allocating a specific horse to a specific rider according to their skills level. We will definately visit Garden Route Horse Trails again when on holiday in that area.

    We did the one and a half hour ride. The horses were great and our guide Elias made everyone feel very comfortable. Most of our group are novice riders but the more adventurous got to trot and run their horses more. Most of the ride is through forests (there was a fairly recent fire). Also, only about 15 minute drive from wilderness in lovely countryside.

    A lovely holiday ride through the forest to a waterfall. Well looked after horses. Elliot was a knowledgable guide who knew the personalities of his horses well. He matched my ten year old daughter and I, both beginners, to two calm and obedient horses.

    A really awesome experience with riding a horse. It was our first time and we weren’t sure what to expect. However the staff was very welcoming and they helped us get comfortable before the experience. The horses are kind and friendly and create tons of fun adventure.

    Took a 2 hour ride through Louvain's mountain trail and we had a fantastic time and the scenery was absolutely amazing. Definitely will be going back for some more fun with the horses. Our guide Lize was absolutely friendly and made the ride a great experience.

    An absolutely amazing experience! Lize was so knowledgeable and friendly and the horses were so happy and well looked after. Would recommend to anyone interested in riding, no matter the experience level. The views are to die for too.

    Had an incredible experience riding on the Map of Africa farm which has breathtaking views. Our guide, Lize, was very friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about horses and the farm. Would highly recommend this to anyone!

    My friend and I went for the two hour ride on the second of march 2019 and we had a blast!! The horses are very well kept and VERY well behaved. The trails are beautiful and safe for both horse and rider offering a great all round out riding experience. The owner has a great sense of humor and is careful to make sure that the horses and riders are safe and happy at all times. This ride caters to all levels of riding experience and is sure to make you grin from ear to ear. I will definitely be going back!!

    Had the time of my life. Was the perfect place to go to look at the scenery and also do more of an advanced ride. Lize was an amazing guide. Her care and knowledge for the horses was evident the entire ride and she made the entire experience unforgettable

    As tour operators, were always looking to support something authentic and give our clients a real pleasing experience. We couldn’t recommend the team enough at Louvain Farm. Some were a bit nervous to see such magnificent beasts up close , but with the cool calm composure of the team it put everyone at ease. Looking forward to the next ride!
