Learn to ride a horse.
Where in the world could I go to learn to ride a horse???
I have 30 days and I would like to mix tourism and learn to ride a horse. I thought in Mongolia but there's no flight tikets to go in July so I must look for another place to go. Any idea?? Is it possible in Egypt? Somewhere in South or central America?? What about Asia? Africa? |

Learn to ride a horse.
Calgary Alberta or the British Columbia interior in Canada have numerous and
I do mean numerous "learn to ride a horse" vacations. They are some times called "dude" ranches. I'm sure they have loads in the US as well. They have various options such as living at the ranch and taking riding lessons among other activities to multi-day guided trail rides for rank beginners. "F.Serralta" wrote in message ...

Learn to ride a horse.
My daughter was brought up in the interior of British Columbia and learned
to ride here at a very young age. As mentioned there are riding stables that will teach you in many, many locations. Two years ago she did some riding while touring the Garden Route in South Africa. I don't think she had any trouble finding a place, although she was not impressed with the sluggish horse she got. That could be good for a learner though. This winter she is travelling in South America. I think she has done some horse riding in both Argentina and Brazil. Currently she is visiting the Pampas in Bolivia and I wouldn't be surprised to hear she was riding there too. In short, there are many places all over the world where you can learn to rid a horse.

Unlike ski-ing, which is more international because many locations do not have snow, horse-riding appeals more to locals. Google for equestrian, pony trekking, ranch and similar keywords. Owain |

What about Asia? Africa? I didn't 'learn' much, but my first time on a horse was on the beach at Cha-am, on the western seaboard of the Gulf of Thailand. I'm sure there are plenty of other beaches in Thailand that offer horse rides, though I wouldn't expect to receive much in the way of structured training, per se. I thought the elephant riding I did southwest of Chiang Mai (Thailand) was more interesting/exotic than the horse riding. USC |

Horseback riding is not an inexpensive hobby, but it certainly would be cheaper to learn at home than to travel long distances to learn in a foreign country! |
