Our genuine love of horses led us to create this establishment to share an amazing experience with you.
Horse riding services according to your needs
Santorini Horse Riding, is born from our long love for horses, our family has owned land and livestock in the village for 5 generations.
The creation of the horse-riding association in Megalochori reflects our love of the village and surrounding lands and a desire to maintain the heritage of the island. To share with others the amazing experience of riding a beautiful animal along ancient paths through the natural wonder of the Santorini landscape.
Santorini Horse Riding Stables is home to 40 horses, each with their unique personality and character. As responsible equine owners, all our animals receive daily attention, and are feed and kept in the cleanest, healthiest conditions. They have access to expert veterinary assistance 24/7 and they could not be more loved
Our trained instructor-guides will match you to a horse that will suit you and your riding experience, they live and work with the horses 365 days of the year. They have a strong bond with their animals based on respect and trust and we kindly ask you to also show a respectful attitude to your chosen horse and the guides.
Santorini Horse Riding provides you the necessary equestrian equipment to ensure your physical safety. Also, if you are inexperienced rider before riding, we provide basic training and orientation needed. For each tour, there will be a guide – instructor who is going to direct you and ensure the smooth operation of the tour.
If you visit our stables you will meet personally with Nikos and Zsanett – who own and manage the company, or you will be in touch with them online. And most probably you will find their son, the small Manolis as riding his lovely pony.
