Choose how you want to experience Egypt. We have the green lushness of the farmland and the sand and serenity of the desert. Rides can be custom designed to meet the specific need and skill levels of participants. For birders we have the egret nesting grounds on the canals, while amateur Egyptologists can meet pyramids in the wild the way that the exporers did.

Riding Trips

Countryside Riding

Choose a trail ride in the farming area of the Nile Valley. Horses are available for all skill levels. Equipment is high quality and comfortable. Helmets are provided. Rides can last from an hour to all day with lunch provided.

Other Forms of Travel

Not everyone wants to ride horses, naturally. For those who want to see the area by other means, we offer jeep trips through the countryside and desert. Time of day and the length of the trip are up to the clients. Stop where you like to investigate the landscape. Picnics in the desert can be arranged for day trips or evening jaunts. We only tie the most difficult clients up and leave them on the railroad tracks.

A felucca trip on the Nile is a perfect ending for a day in Cairo.

Desert Riding

Ride in the desert and experience the vastness of the Sahara. Visit the less frequented pyramid areas of Abu Sir, Sakkara, and Dahshur. Explore the geology of the Egyptian desert and see the hawks and foxes that live out of reach of the cultivated areas. Panoramic vistas await at the top of every hill.

When was the last time you got to hang around in a sarcophagus?

Come and play with the horses.

There are many games that can be played on horseback such as broomball and polocrosse. We are collecting equipment and experimenting with games as part of riding lessons or just for fun.

We are always trying out new games

A casual game of broomball got the assistance of Disney, one of our Dalmations

Our four-legged administrative assistants, a pack of Rat Terriers augmented by a Great Dane and a couple of Dalmations and a Moroccan Sloughi, supervise all activities...but have to stay home when we are riding.

Boys and dogs always can find something to do

The dogs are always happy to help have a romp on the lawn, play keepaway with a baseball cap or run.
