Egypt, horses and Temples What a experience! I don't know if I can find the right words, but this Mini-Break fullfilled my heart with so many moments. I book a kind of last minute, because my other plans were cancelled. I told Emma what I was looking for, some riding yes, but first, historic, culture, ancient. To know more about the Pharaos at their time. I was there for 4 nights. Never ever could I imagine THIS! Emma booked the perfect hotel, especially at Luxor. I had my own guide, my own driver, felt like a Queen! The horses, the people, the treasures, the museums just beyond amazing! And in this short time, I felt like I was part of a big family! All the team was simply amazing. I don't talk about the horses, just look at the pictures and you will see, what I feel. And some of the amazing temples. They touched my heart right away. This was not my last trip to Egypt and for sure, I chose again Emma and her Team. Thank you Emma and the whole team to fullfill my childrens dream in such a postive and awesome way. I am in love

A RIDE FOR THE HISTORY BOOKS! How do you put into words an experience that goes beyond words? Of a set of moments in your life that you know forever changed you. That was what my trip with Ride Egypt was for me. Moments that went beyond time and space, that transported me back through time to the land of the Pharaohs. Egypt is more than a destination, it's a place of dreams and magic, of vast deserts and lush oasis. Emma and her team give you the ability to set all of your fantasies to flight. Have you ever dreamed of flying across an Egyptian desert on the back of a fiery stallion? Of exploring ancient temples? Of walking in the footsteps of some of the greatest figures in ancient history? You'll get to do all of that and so much more on any of Ride Egypt's tours! From Luxor's temples and village roads to Hurghada's blue waters, from the splendor of Cairo and the pyramids to the rolling vastness of Fayum's deserts Emma and her team gave their all to ensure our time with them was unforgettable and it truly was! I cannot rave about her horses enough either, so much spirt but some of the most well-behaved I've ever had the pleasure of being around. They were truly unforgettable and lent us the wings we lacked in order to fly across the sands. Every location we stayed at is handpicked by Emma and they do not disappoint! Each location makes you feel not like guest but like family. I arrived in Luxor a week before our riding holiday was due to meet so I could explore on my own and soak up as much as I could. I'm a historian by profession and Egypt as been a dream of mine since I was little! Emma recommended I stay at the same hotel we would be staying at with the group and I'm so thankful I listened to her excellent advice! If you wish to arrive before or stay after the ride do not hesitate to contact Emma and ask for help on where to stay or other adventures to be found for she can help you with it all! She is truly a remarkable woman that puts her heart and soul into this company and you're experience in Egypt. Life is short and none of us are guaranteed tomorrow, buy that plane ticket and book your own riding holiday I promise you won't regret it nor will you leave Egypt the same as you arrived! Cannot wait until our reunion ride! Yalla!

The horses are one of a kind - a roster of fiery Arabians that are sure to impress you and give you a once in a lifetime ride, and Emma and the boys take amazing care of every single one! Combine all of this with the ethereal beauty of Egypt, and you are in for a trip you will never forget!! 🐎🇪🇬 As a solo female traveller, I made amazing friends, and felt safe.

Absolutely wonderful Horse riding Holiday I travelled solo and the wait was since 2019 , I was so excited that it's finally happening. Each day was so well planned with horse riding with a mix of cultural, heritage ,local food, local people .I have no words on how well organised the team was and every person was connected and meticulously carrying out their job. It was wonderful meeting Emma and her team. A very hard working and friendly bunch . I will surely go back as i felt at home and made friends for life. Our riding group was a mix of different nationalities and an absolute joy.We all enjoyed immensely and it was one big family who couldn't stop smiling. The horses are very similar to our marwari horses in India so for me i felt at home .They were so sensitive and spirited. I am missing them and got to know many by their names and knew a little about their personality too Pure joy and bliss! Thanks so much once again .

Un voyage inoubliable pour découvrir l’Égypte a cheval Une aventure incroyable pour découvrir l’Egypte à sous un autre angle, loin des sentiers battus. Premières vacances à cheval pour moi, mais certainement pas les dernières. La réussite de ce voyage tient en grande partie à Emma et aux guides qui nous accompagnent. Ils organisent le voyage de A à Z pour nous et qui possèdent des chevaux arabes magnifiques, très agréables à monter. J’ai été particulièrement surprise par le soin mis à attribuer des chevaux adaptés au niveau et aux appétences de chacun. Je tiens aussi à souligner la gentillesse et l’attention des guides qui nous accompagnent lors du voyage, qui mettent beaucoup d’énergie pour que tout se passe pour le mieux pour leurs guests, dans une ambiance toujours très bon enfant. Très bon aperçu de l’Égypte avec la visite du Caire, la chevauchée entre les pyramides, la découverte des villages de Louxor à cheval, celle des tombeaux de la vallée des rois, le lever du soleil sous les montgolfières, la baignade avec les chevaux et j’en passe. Un voyage magique, qui donne envie de repartir avec Ride Egypt. Je recommande a 100% !

Yalla Yalla !!!! Une aventure exceptionnelle avec des chevaux excellents, des chevauchées à couper le souffle et des guides a l'écoute et bienveillants, C'est un 10/10 pour cette excursion (Palms, Pyramids & Pharaos). Excellent mélange entre temps de découverte de l'Egypte (temples, musées, villes) et temps à cheval. Très bonne occasion de découvrir la monture arabe, avec de beaux étalons 🙂 On repart avec la larme a l'oeil sous la pleine lune d'Hurghada, Mention spéciale pour les guides qui étaient tout simplement excellents et avec qui nous avons pu faire la fete jusqu'au bout de la nuit en toute sécurité ! En tant que femme et après un voyage en Jordanie ou le guide faisait des réflexions déplacées qui m'avaient mises profondément mal à l'aise, je me suis sentie très safe au sein de l'équipe ride egypte, les relations étaient amicales, et l'équipe veillait sur nous lors de nos sorties ce qui permettait de profiter pleinement de nos moments sur place, Merci encore, je reviendrai pour Fayoum ! NB : réservez le vol Le Caire - Hurghada 1 mois avant et ne prenez pas de vol après 20h (gros retards à prévoir)

Incredible Experience I have to be honest that when I booked this trip/experience I had no idea what to expect. I've always wanted to go to Egypt but I typically don't book tours. I'm more of a "figure it out myself" traveler. I can say that this tour and Ride Egypt completely exceeded my expectations and then some. Every detail was handled and we were able to relax/go with the flow. Emma, the guides, and the horses were incredible! I can't say enough good things about them. You can feel the love that Emma has for her horses and her team. It was so nice to see! I feel as though I experienced far more on this tour than I ever would have if I was solo. The group was small enough that it wasn't overwhelming and I met people that will be friends for life! The Ride Egypt crew were SO much fun but also extremely experienced. I always felt safe and taken care of when with them! They made sure everyone was comfortable and paired well on their horses. I truly fell in love with the people, the horses and the country. Experiences of a lifetime that I will never forget! If you're even remotely considering booking this trip - DO IT! I will for sure be back!

A four-legged blast through Egypt. Are you up for it?!! Back in rainy England and coming down from what has been an epic horseback adventure across mighty Egypt! The Ride Egypt crew are smart, and endeavour to deliver an unsurpassable balance of adrenaline filled fast riding, alongside a dizzying whistle-stop tour of Egypt’s world beating ancient antiquities. The magic doesn’t stop there, we have made wonderful new friends, and had some truly hilarious evenings 😆. Oh, and did I mention these are some of the best horses you’ll ever ride???! I’m coming back Egypt. 👍David Mann.

Trip of a lifetime! Absolutely incredible experience. I came for the riding and ended up falling in love with the wonderful people and the amazing country, as well as the beautiful horses. Traveling by myself I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was taken care of every step of the way. Never had to worry about anything but having an absolute blast! YALLA YALLA
