This is the most breathtaking and exhilarating trip into pristine wilderness. We had such a wonderful week embracing local Chilean hospitality, spectacular horses and superb guidance from Osvaldo who creates such a magical tour. A once in a lifetime trip immersed in stunning landscape with delicious food, great company and comfortable lodgings.

Nomad Riders in Versailles is one of the greatest experiences I’ve ever had. The team was lovely, prompt and so kind. The horse I was paired with was a perfect gentleman, with a great personality. I did a ride and requested to trot, canter and gallop. My guide made sure we got to do as much of that as my heart desired. It was unforgettable. The horse was paired perfectly to my riding ability and he was beautiful. I was also thrilled to learn each of the horses only works every other day, their saddles are fitted to them, they are extremely well cared for and loved. They are also retired with the same company. The guide was game to gallop a lot and the photographer was wonderful too. My driver picked me up with fresh croissants in the morning in an extremely comfortable car. The lunch afterwards was so lovely and the palace tour was great. I would go anywhere with Nomad riders after this experience!

Versailles is massive, and galloping/trotting horses was an amazing way to see the entire grounds. Our guide Alice was so good at taking us around and inspiring riding confidence on my daughter and me. The lunch was fantastic with wait staff in period ware, which should have been kitschy but the service was so high-end and the food was so good that it actually worked and we loved it. Our guide for the palace was so incredibly knowledgeable that in spite of the interior being closed for a strike, she had us captivated in all of the surrounding gardens and handled my art history major daughter’s questions with ease. It was an incredible day in Versailles and was kicked off and completed by the nicest driver ever to/from Paris. Highly recommend…

We had a fantastic time on our nomadic adventure. Riding through the Tuscany countryside and staying at the castles was spectacular. The staff were great, helpful and flexible to meet my needs. The horses were beautiful and so much fun to ride. I enjoyed getting to know the various riders and made same new friends from all over the world. I would recommend this adventure to other horse enthusiasts, but make sure you’re in shape, it’s three days of fast, fun riding. The trip of a life time!

Simply AMAZING!!! I have horses at home so I never thought to see another country on horseback, until this trip. Now I want to see every country forever on horseback!! From the horses, to the people (seriously our outfit of humans were top-tier, wonderful), to the landscape, everything was beyond incredible. There is such a special culture that is preserved in this beautiful country and it’s worth exploring. If you’re even remotely considering this trip, DO IT! I’d like to think I’m well traveled but the experience has set a new standard, that fear won’t be matched anytime soon.

We had a wonderful experience from beginning to end! Our favorite, of course, was the riding in the forests, and we loved the tour in Fontainebleau castle.

From start to finish, everything was planned and timed perfectly. I used this as a way to propose to my fiancée and they were able to accommodate! We were picked up with treats by Manon and a great ride to Versailles with David! Horses were waiting for us and ready to start the day immediately with Emilien. This was great for both me as a beginner rider and my fiancée who has ridden for 5+ years. It was a perfect sunny, cool day to overlook the castle from the park. The restaurant was fantastic and set the bar high for the rest of our trip in a gorgeous 18th century setting. Service and food were amazing. Our historical tour through the castle with Sophie was incredible. Again, she was very knowledgeable and charismatic in her work. Answered all our questions with ease. Coming back was a breeze! From start to finish, everything was thought through and take care of it. Worth every penny for an an unforgettable experience!

What a fantastic experience even in the rain! Everything was carefully coordinated and planned out, nothing beat the horse back ride through the palace gardens followed by an AMAZING multiple course meal and a tour for just my friend and I at the palace. Would recommend over and over again! If you have the chance to do this make it happen!

An unforgettable experience with Nomad Riders! My daughter and I went on a 3-day ride with Nomad Riders through the Loire Valley, and it truly exceeded every expectation. From the very first interaction, their team was proactive, helpful, and made sure every detail was perfectly organized. The support leading up to the trip was exceptional - clear communication, thoughtful preparation, and seamless logistics made it easy to relax and just enjoy the experience. Once in the saddle, the adventure was everything we hoped for and more. The horses were well-matched and well-cared for, the scenery was incredible, and the ride was both fun and enriching. Our guide was fantastic - knowledgeable, personable, and just the right mix of professional and relaxed, making the days in the saddle truly enjoyable. This was more than just a horseback trip; it was a memory-making journey of a lifetime for me and my daughter. We can’t recommend Nomad Riders highly enough and will absolutely return for more!

Our family shared a beautiful day in Fontainebleau. Rita met us in the morning with our driver Cedric and escorted us down to meet the horses with Alyse. She led a beginner friendly ride through the forest along Napolean’s old road. The horses were well groomed and cared for. After that we had an incredible lunch in Barbizon before heading to the chateau where we had a guided tour before returning to Paris. Well organized tour.

A full five stars and then some for the ride at Versailles for me and my daughter I am 68, she is 23. We are both writers. I was a bit skittish that my riding coach put me right at ease on a lovely smaller male called beauty. My daughter got along extremely well with her gelding. The entire experience from hotel pick up to riding to luncheon to the tour at Versailles were absolutely spectacular

What a great experience! Every detail was well planned. We were promptly picked up at our hotel and a short drive out to the woods adjacent to Fontainebleau felt a world away from the energy of Paris. Emily’s horses were clean, calm and we were comfortably confident in them quickly. The scenery was idyllic. Our dejuner was delicious! The chateau of Fontainebleau was intriguing and our tour guide fun with a plethora of historical insights that were very much more entertaining than we would usually expect from a history lesson. A wonderful experience I would recommend to anyone!
