2 Hour Horse Riding Trip with Family in Hurghada

We had a fantastic time on our trip. Our guides were very experienced and helped us feel comfortable to ride the horses as none of us had previous experience riding a horse. They were very supportive and patient during the trip and would ask us if we wanted to ride the horses faster or not - some in the group were happy to and others not so they took the ones off for a little ride at a faster pace. The horses were beautiful and well kept/looked after. The overall experience of riding them and into the sea was fantastic once you got comfortable with the horses. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to enjoy a couple of hours of great fun riding horses in the sea regardless of your level of horse riding experience. Ahmed and his colleague were very friendly and helpful throughout our trip. They took down wonderful photos for us with the horses to remember this great trip.

Beste paardenbeleving op vakantie!

Fantastic! Manege Sunshine Vally. No meek horses that follow the leader, but horses with which you could gallop in the desert, separate yourself from the group and walk quietly through the watr. Swimming in the sea only for experienced riders because you have no saddle. Staff takes pictures. Free!!!!!! Definitely recommended for anyone who has never ridden before or for riders! If you can ride definitely include swimming in the sea.

Horseback riding with swimming

Everything worked great, communication was easy and the experience top. We were asked about the riding experience and then the horses were assigned. Helmet and chaps were available if you wanted. It's best to put on swimsuits and riding clothes over them. We were very satisfied

Beautiful experience with the horses to the Red Sea

Nice trip with the horses to (and into) the Red Sea. Horses are very well cared for and super well behaved (I did the trip with my daughter of 10y). On the way back even a little bit of canter, but that will depend on the level of the group. The limit of 70kg is justified (I weigh 71kg and was allowed to come) because they are not that big horses.

The trip was great! We (female, 12 & 43 years) were picked up at the agreed time by a nice driver and taken to the stables! After supplying protective equipment (also helmets on demand) and assigning the horses, we also started. Riding through the desert and then swimming with the horses was great! The horses all seemed well groomed and - at least it seemed - had fun in the water. The guides were great too! Overall a great trip! We'll be back!

Good first experience

Experience was lovely and the guide gave us some really good pictures. Maybe a bit too long for me personally and was a bit rough for my girlfriend when the horses got faster but overall enjoyable for my first time riding

Best tour

It was one of the best tours I did. It was one of the best tone I made, recommending everyone stop by Sunny. The guide was great and has taken quite a lot of pictures of us and totally focused that everyone also has their fun. Swimming with the horses was also super nice
