a year agoMy husband & I came to South Africa for our honeymoon, & on our stop in Swellendam, we decided to go horseback riding! Setting up an appointment with Debra was super quick & easy ! Upon arrival, we were greeted so warmly & enthusiastically by Debra! It was my first time riding a horse (my husband had ridden before), but Debra explained everything & I felt completely safe in her hands! She introduced us to the horses & sized us for the equipment, & we were on our way! The views on the trail were absolutely incredible, the conversations with Debra were great, & you could tell that she truly does care for her horses & all her guests! Truly a great experience that you must try if in Swellendam! Thank you for such an amazing experience, Debra! :)

4 years agoRiding with Debbie was a wonderful experience! We had no prior riding experience but the horses were so friendly and calm that that wasn’t a problem at all. Debbie has such a wonderful personality and is incredible knowledgeable when it comes to horses. She is a very patient instructor, and we trusted her every step of the way. The trail through the forest is gorgeous, and we are excited to come back and ride a different route next time!
