Italy

Our holidays to Italy provide fantastic opportunities for experienced riders, non-riders, families and mixed groups. You can choose to combine horse riding through beautiful Tuscan countryside with more disciplined training or lessons, and we offer you the opportunity to ride English or Western to improve and learn, or just to relax and enjoy.

Tuscany is quintessential Italy; a land of rolling hills, vineyards, sunflowers and cypress trees, atmospheric alleyways and historic towns. We show you the best Italy has to offer with enchanting castles, medieval history and stunning views. There are many opportunities for exciting excursions to Florence with it’s wealth of art- the birthplace of Renaissance- Pisa, with its iconic leaning tower,  laid back medieval Sienna and wonderful Rome. Then there are exquisite hill towns like Cortona, and Pienza- the list is endless.

The trouble with Tuscany is that there is just too much to see and do! So with wonderful riding, fantastic Italian cuisine, a very warm welcome, Italy is ideal for a relaxed and  stylish holiday in magnificent surroundings. The Redlands team have worked closely with our suppliers in Italy to create the perfect holiday for you.
