GUEST REVIEWS

Sandy (USA) - September 2019

The guide was a great guide and runs a very good outfit. I would have liked his English to be better, as communication was sometimes difficult (his English was broken and my French was broken and I had no Italian). Spritz was great - lots of energy, never got tired, loved to trot and canter. Every place we stayed was wonderful. My favorite was the Castello di Proceno, which was a real castle. The owner gave me a private tour of her residence and the main tower. Our rooms were in one of the shorter towers that had been renovated into apartments. Overall, Cap Rando is an excellent company to travel with.

Melanie (USA) - June 2019

The staff were excellent. The guide was fantastic! He was attentive and conscientious with the horses as well as with the guests. It filled with enthusiasm and fun and supported the riders very well. I loved my little horse (Bimbo)! Solid and comfortable gaits, knowing his job. Wonderfully interesting and comfortable accommodation. Good food. We had a fantastic time despite the bad weather over 3 days.

Catherine (France) – May 2017

We come back from our horseback ride in Tuscany and are delighted with our stay: the horses are fantastic, the horseback riding very well organized. The landscapes are fantastic, the light is magical ... Beautiful encounters in our different accommodations, excellent food and a warm welcome. In short: Delighted! Thank you for everything.

Lise (Belgium) – June 2016

What a great advice to go on horseback in Tuscany ! An extra guide ! He shared his passion with us with humility and pride. His horses are well in their heads, they accompany us with courage and affection during the trip. Meetings with the country but also the inhabitants who welcome us with finesse and attention. Thanks again for everything ! The most beautiful holidays! Delighted !!

Fabienne (Belgium) – June 2015

Thank you for such a beautiful week in Tuscany. As always with Cap Rando, a more than successful holiday. And the guide: more than brilliant ! Super good !!!

Elyse (USA) - April 2015

Where to start ? Our horseback trip through Tuscany was both magical and unforgettable. My mom and I went to celebrate a very special birthday and it couldn't have been more special ! The horses were extremely well cared, well behaved, groomed and gentle. You can see that the guide really likes each of them and knows them very well. The hotels and B & Bs were very nice and the food ... oh the food ! was absolutely spectacular ! Our favorite town was Proceno where we met Pucci and her wonderful husband Giovanni. We had dinner at their amazing Michelin starred restaurant and ate the most amazing black truffle ravioli imaginable. After sipping champagne and wonderful wine, we sat by the fireplace and Pucci told us about his life and his family history. All of this and we slept in a castle ! The ride was spectacular. Long gallops and trots with beautiful landscapes of all kinds. The whole trip was like a movie. We loved spending time with our guide and Serena. All in all, I would highly recommend this Tuscany horseback riding trip to anyone looking for adventure, fabulous food, even better wine, and memories that will last a lifetime !
