Overview

  • Trip Details

    In the heart of Tuscany; a colorful region between mountains, valleys, hills and forests, you will discover the ridges of the Sienna Mountains or “Sienna’s costum” which were, until the year 1800, the border between the great duchy of Tuscany and the Papal State.


    This active ride takes riders through some of the most pristine and lovely parts of Tuscany. The paths and trails are scenic and around every bend is a new village situated on the hillside, or a panoramic view of the rolling hills dotted with the noble Cypress trees.


    End each day with a flavorful meal from fresh ingredients while sipping a glass of your favorite Chianti or Pinot Grigio.


    ***Note: This program has two itineraries both of which are exceptional. One is a 7 night/6 day ride and moves south in direction. The other is a 6 night/5 day ride and heads north into Siena.

Reviews

Holly G.

Out of five riding vacations, my ride through Tuscany was the best week of my life—I’m already considering doing it again! Unforgettable moments included dining on homemade pasta and homegrown wine with a three-generation family near Proceno, local shopkeepers and goat farmers sharing incredible food and wine, riding through cobblestone streets to warm local smiles, and taking post-lunch naps under the trees. The thrilling itinerary had us riding to a new town every day, culminating in a ride up to a hilltop fortress by dark. Everything was extraordinary: the guides, horses, food, wine, scenery, and accommodations. You simply must experience it!


Liz D.

The week was fabulous and well worth the money! Host Duska, his horse Gionic (who I loved riding), and his entire team provided great hospitality and made it a blast. Stacey’s support was much appreciated, and I’m actively recommending this and other Active Riding trips to everyone I meet.


Megan N.

Unreal and phenomenal. Despite lost luggage in Rome, Stacey jumped in to help, and the group kindly waited for me in Tuscany. From there, it was pure bliss. Guides Duska and his brother Luan were kind, attentive, and organized. Riding in a small luxury group of three, we covered incredible terrain on athletic, well-trained horses—my horse Ombra was fantastic. The accommodations were places typical tourists never get to see. I’m already looking to book my next ride!


Jennifer J.

After following Active Riding for years, my first trip was an absolute dream. Duska took exceptional care of both us and his horses, making the entire week seamless. The riding was beautiful, the horses were loved and well-cared for, and the food and lodging were top-notch. We would love to go back!


Peggy C.

An amazing, unforgettable trip! Guide Duska was fantastic (and patient with my shenanigans), the food was wonderful, and the horses were perfect. Accommodations were lovely, including one spot with a thermal-heated pool filled each evening. Word of warning: come prepared to spend an average of 6 to 7 hours a day in the saddle!


Patricia R.

A wonderful experience. Duska and his team were amazing, and the scenery, horses, accommodations, and food were spectacular. Tip for future riders: make sure you can handle trotting and cantering for long stretches across 6+ hours in the saddle a day, and consider bringing a seat saver.


Lisa K.

Great ride, beautiful country, good horses, super guide, nice accommodations, good food, and excellent attention from Stacey.


Deb B.

An unforgettable experience. The places we stayed were rustic, rural, very comfortable, and included a wonderful castle stay in a small village. The days were long, but finishing with great meals and wine made it completely worth it. Special thanks to our helpful guide and the hilarious ranch hands who took fantastic care of us and the horses.


Vanessa W.

Another bucket-list trip checked off! Tuscany was breathtakingly beautiful, delicious, and physically challenging in a way that made me feel alive.
