Ride Kenya's Mobile Tented Horse Safaris

 

Ride Kenya's Mobile Horse Safaris from Ol Donyo Wuas in Kenya are reminiscent of the safaris of old.  Rides tend to cover between 15 to 30 miles per day during which the luxury camp is moved ahead to the next destination. The tented camps are very comfortable, with wrought iron twin or double beds, fine linen, en suite bathrooms, a central dining tent & a high standard of food & drinks. All of the mobile safaris are supported by a crew of grooms, chefs, waiters & general helpers to ensuring maximum guest comfort.

Enjoy riding through a great variety of truly wild, unfenced ecosystems. Our terrain is volcanic, so the going is mostly soft & sandy, with some areas of rocky lava flow. Explore riding through a great variety of ecosystems; from the vast savannah plains, to thick acacia forests, & the Chyulu Hills themselves which run for about 40 miles.

Ride Kenya has a selection of 20 very well-schooled horses catering for beginners to advanced rides.
