Riding horses in Chianti is one unique and unforgettable experience: imagine yourself surrounded by the sounds of nature, relaxed, losing the horizon amongst the rows of vines: this is a heavenly experience even for an experienced horseman.

The Chianti hills are some of the loveliest in all of Tuscany.  Lush, verdant, and filled with mystery and romance; the countryside is ideal for horse riding.  There is nothing quite like enjoying the sounds and smells of an earthy Tuscan morning on horseback.

A private horseback-riding experience in the heart of Chianti should be on your bucketlist of things to do on your vacation in Italy, and is a memorable experience as you immerse yourself in the ancient rural culture that has made this special region so famous.

You’ll ride through vineyards, olive groves and medieval villages. You will stop by some amazing cellars and fantastic gardens and will get to know about the Extra Virgil Olive Oil production process and Chianti Wines.

Complicity created between rider and horse will do the rest, creating a general feeling of well being, helping to overcome worries and stress. A riding weekend in Chianti is more than a tour and more than a touristic experience: by the time you go back home, you will feel enriched, delighted, happier.
