The Best of South-West Iceland was my first ever riding holiday, and it turned out to be a dream vacation. The stunning natural scenery, the fantastic horses—everything was impeccably arranged! I simply had to relish the experience. Without a doubt, I’ll be booking my next riding vacation with OTC again. Now, the only decision is which trip to choose. A heartfelt thank you to Laure-Anne for providing this unforgettable experience!

What an unforgettable journey… Namibia is a place that will stay with me for a long time. Not just because of the landscapes or the adventure itself, but especially because of the way we were able to live alongside the horses: 24/7, like a close-knit herd. That brought a depth to the experience that I will never forget.

What did I take away from this ride? That horses thrive when they have a purpose, just like us. That it’s okay to let go and trust them to choose where to put their feet. And that when you truly start functioning as a “herd” within a group, you discover a strength and peace that can’t be forced.

The experience was raw, honest, sometimes challenging, but above all magical. It’s not the kind of adventure you can plan, it’s the kind you create and make possible, and that’s exactly what Outside the Corral enables. Thank you for making this adventure possible. I feel so grateful to have been part of it!

I cannot personally recommend Outside the Corral more for your next horseback riding adventure. Laure-Anne was so incredibly kind and helpful in planning every step of the trip, making me feel confident that I was about to have one of the best holidays of my life, which I did! I personally did the castle estate ride in Ireland and she facilitated all of the booking providing me with a perfectly detailed itinerary that made everything so simple and stress free. I would without a doubt book through her again for my next riding trip and highly recommend her services for anyone looking for their next horseback riding adventure! I truly can not thank her enough!

I would have probably visited Argentina, but the unforgettable experience and memory for me lies in the place where OTC, Laure-Anne, took me. An intimate and family farm hidden in the vast Argentine pampas, which exudes grandeur through its unique hospitality, combined with a gastronomic exploration of the local cuisine. The warm and homely feeling experienced over days is reflected in the care for the horses. This makes the trip more than just a trip, it creates a memory imbued with countless wonderful stories. I highly recommend this location and Laure-Anne’s guidance.
