European Horseback Holidays
The Grand Tour on Horseback
No roads in Europe can be traveled where horses haven’t traveled before - they may not all lead to Rome, but they all lead to stables somewhere. Whether you’re participating in an exciting equestrian event, like foxhunting in Ireland or attending a Doma Vaquera competition in Spain, or just trail riding across the countryside, the role horses have played in history here is undeniable, and visible at every turn.
