Description:

This horse riding safari day tour from Johannesburg is a 2 hour perfect magical choice of experience.The ultimate African horseback adventure for those of you with just a day to spare. A horse riding Safari tour offers a game viewing of animals such as Giraffe, Zebra, Blue Wildebeest , Golden Wildebeest, Kudu, Nyala, Impala, Springbuck, Blesbuck and other.

Horse riding is an absolute passion. There is no better way to explore the African bush than from the back of a horse. This day tour will afford some spectacular game viewing from the saddle of a magnificent beast we all know so well. And being on a horse seems to be a great advantage of touring silently next to grazers like zebras. Being grazers themselves, maybe there is some sort of silent brotherhood among the animals we are totally unaware of that allows us to get up close and personal with the wild animals of Africa.

The horses are well trained, forward going and super friendly. So not only is this horse-riding safari superb for experienced horsemen but it is also the perfect place to try out your first horse riding experience.
