Horse riding lessons tailored to you. For most people, it's about fun and confidence building; others want to challenge themselves by jumping quality, brave 1.30m jumpers. No matter the driver, I ensure you come away from your rides feeling a sense of achievement and progress.

Our excursions include  "off the tourist path" as well as the "must-sees" of Italy, all selected to enjoy the Italian culture,  meeting for aperitivo while watching the sun set over the skyline of Rome, Gradara castle, or the cliffs overlooking the Adriatic.  

Whether it's biking, driving vespas, diving off a launch on the Adriatic sea, or marvelling at the ancient Duomo and Palazzo, we organize all the details, you just grab your breeches, boots, and walking shoes, some fun outfits, and start dreaming of the "La Dolce Vita' which translates to a lifestyle of pleasure, indulgence, and enjoying the finer things in life. 

                                           Sample Itinerary

Day One- Meet in Rome, settle in at the apartment located centrally to the sights. Go out for Aperativo/Dinner and watch the sun set over the incredible skyline of Rome.

Day Two- Up and about to visit the sights with our guide Rebecca, before the city wakes and the heat starts. Full day taking in the sights, shops, and history of the "eternal city".

Day Three- Leave Rome in our private van and stop at Assisi or a river swim on route to Pesaro. Settle into the Villa in Pesaro and enjoy drinks beside the pool.

Day Four- Meet the horses and have your first riding lesson (first thing in the morning, to beat the heat). Enjoy free time at the Villa until we go to the Medieval castle "Gradara".

Day Five- Second riding lesson, followed by walking around the lovely seaside town of Pesaro, which has beautiful beaches, fabulous shopping, and an abundance of eateries and cafes. Finish the day at a family-run Vineyard on the cliffs overlooking the Adriatic sea that only the locals know about. 

Day Six- Third riding lesson, followed by a relaxing lunch around the pool before our local chef arrives to teach you how to make pasta and tiramisu, which you will then enjoy under the wisteria-covered balcony at the villa. 

Day Seven-Spend the day on a boat on the Adriatic Sea, with local wines and lunch on board

Day Eight-Jump aboard your E-Bike and explore the San Barolo National Park on easy sealed roads ( the road shuts for the morning so cyclists can enjoy the views with no traffic). Finish the day with a sunset hack.

Day Nine- Fourth riding lesson followed by a quick swim at the villa before heading to explore one of the best examples of a Renaissance castle, " Urbino".

Day Ten- Final morning in Pesaro, we will drop you at the train station to continue your travel or to return home. 

As we keep the tour size small, this enables us to be flexible. We book lovely villas to stay at, so there are plenty of great spaces to rest and recharge, and also gives us the option of eating at home too.
