RIDE LOCATIONS
ARUSHA NATIONAL PARK
Just half an hour from Tanzania’s safari capital, Arusha National Park offers a kaleidoscope of fascinating habitats and unique wildlife. While not home to lions and elephants, the charismatic black-and-white colobus monkey is the flagship species, and large herds of buffalo find haven in the Ngurdoto Crater. Mt Meru, Tanzania’s second tallest mountain, stands guard over the lush green forests, rolling savannahs, and sparkling Momela lakes, tinged pink with thousands of flamingos
THE SERENGETI & NGORONGORO CONSERVATION AREA
This means “endless plains” in Maasai, the Africa most people dream of. Here, you can witness the natural phenomenon as millions of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle embark on their annual migration. Become part of the herd as you gallop across the plains, keenly looking for the big cats that thrive here. This is one of those very rare places that somehow manages to surpass expectations and take your breath away.
LAKE NATRON
Lying north of the Ngorongoro Crater in the Great Rift Valley, the crimson soda lake is a photographer’s dream. Riding from the traditional Masai bomas across vast plains teamed with wildlife; the area appears even more otherworldly. Fed by mineral-rich springs and the Ewaso Ng’iro River, this highly alkaline lake means death to most creatures. But in winter, the lake comes to life as over two million pink flamingos come to nest on the ash-colored mud.
ZANZIBAR
Horse riding in Zanzibar offers a unique and enchanting experience on this tropical island paradise. Imagine galloping along pristine beaches with turquoise waters lapping at your horse’s hooves or meandering through picturesque villages and lush spice plantations. Riders can explore the island’s rich culture, historical sites, and scenic landscapes while enjoying the rhythmic pace of horseback riding.
