Just back from a week at Monte Velho (Portugal). It was a flawless trip and top service by Laure-Anne, thank you. An incredible and unique experience in a beautiful infrastructure and breathtaking environment. The instructors are all professional and very passionate, you are welcomed by a heartwarming family, and really a place full of history. A great riding holiday to remember!

I heard about Outside the Corral through friends, and from my very first contact with Laure-Anne, I knew I wanted to choose this organisation for my first riding holiday. Her enthusiasm, combined with the clear and thorough information she provided, immediately inspired confidence.

For my first trip, I chose Costa Brava: Coast & Hinterland, and it was clear that Outside the Corral had prepared us extremely well. We received excellent information about every aspect of the holiday. Laure-Anne was always available both before and during the trip, which was very reassuring. Even after the holiday, she took the time to listen to our feedback.

My first experience with Outside the Corral was fantastic, and I would happily recommend it to anyone. When I book my next riding holiday, it will definitely be with this organisation!

I had an excellent riding experience in Iceland. Laure-Anne was highly engaged in planning my trip and provided valuable information beforehand. When I received the itinerary, my expectations were already high, but the actual experience exceeded them. Eldhestar, the partner in Iceland, organized everything perfectly. The horses were in great condition, a crucial factor for me, and displayed energy beyond my expectations. In summary, it was a top-notch experience!

It was an incredible experience, and when I plan my next trip like this, I will definitely book through Laure-Anne again. Highly recommended!
