The area for the ride was so beautiful, right near an ancient archaeological site. The horses were so well treated and each one was stunning! They know so much about each horse in their care and will help you with everything you need. All the people were so kind and made you feel comfortable. They had some amazing stories to share about the area. Super easy to get too as well. Will come back I ever get to have another trip here!

The most beautiful ranch in an amazing landscape, surrounded by so much nature. The people running it are truly special doing inspiring work with some happy horses, who are very fun full if individual personalities. One of the best places and experiences in Rome, cannot recommend it enough, and return for the ride again soon!

Magical!!! Absolutely amazing- so peaceful and the history is incredible. Riding through lush, green fields only to find out 2,500 years ago it was a thriving city and gateway to Rome- 🤩. We saw a fox, falcon, pheasant, and gorgeous red poppies. Alesia showed us ancient baths and other ruins and explained what the land had been used for, how Mother Nature had reclaimed it. Now it is an ecological reserve. The horses were friendly and easy to ride. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to groom and tack them up. If you love nature, love horses, love history this is the tour for you.

Magical- truly peaceful and jaw dropping beauty. I saw a fox, a falcon and pheasant. We rode through tall grass, fields with poppies and amazing trees. Alessia’s passion for the area and her horses is contagious. We learned so much about the ecological reserve. By far the best tour we had.

It was really very beautiful experience and countryside. Cappuccino and Croissant for breakfast. Short tansport to Horse Ranch. Feeling, grooming and finally riding them (we are beginners) really worked well! Lovely cats on the farm too to pet after finishing. Alessia explained everything well to us and we felt very secure on the horse. Everything took a little bit longer than the 2.5 hours mentioned on the homepage but we still had enough time to spend time on the nice beach of Ostia!

Lovely host. Happy & healthy horses. Zen vibe. Immersed in nature. Great historic knowledge. Really enjoyed and I’ll definitely return. Only 15mins from the airport or 30mins from city.

If I could give a 10 star review I would. The experience was amazing from the location itself and the horses to the wonderful host, Alessia. We were slightly nervous as our level of Italian isn’t great and we had never been to this part of Italy before however from the first 5 minutes we were relaxed and sitting in the sun eating a delicious pastry and sipping a coffee. Alessia picked us up from the nearby station and brought us to the most stunning area where we met the horses (and cats) , fed, groomed and got to know the ones we would ride. We then rode around the woodland the historical sites and Alessia gave us a fascinating tour and insight into the history. She catered perfectly to our individual skill levels and I can happily say I’ve learned more on this one ride than I have in my 6 months of lessons!! Best experience of Rome so far. Will return 10000%.

Amazing experience at the ranch, we groomed the horses and fed them carrots before riding on the trail. The ranch was beautiful and everyone makes you feel right at home. Extremely relaxing.

My boyfriend and I had an amazing and unforgettable experience at the ranch. Everyone makes you feel right at home. We started by giving the horses water and feeding them with carrots, then we groomed the horses and let them get comfortable with us. The trail was beautiful and so relaxing, I was able to take many pictures and videos. I would highly recommend.

5/5 starts!!! Alessia is amazing. An incredible experience seeing the history of Rome outside of the hustle and bustle of the city. I have only been on horseback once in my life and Alessia made it very easy to get back on a horse. Not only do you ride the horse but you feed, brush, and give water to the horse you will ride beforehand to get to know the horse a little bit. The tour takes you through ancient history and is breathtaking. After our tour Alessia brought us to her friend Giannis restaurant which was also 5/5 stars. He even offered us a ride back to where we were staying after our meal! Would recommend to anyone and everyone. Next time I am in Rome I will be reaching out to Alessia!
