What do others say?

I had a very nice equestrian holiday in Italy. The stay was soothing, green and idyllic. In addition, the staff and visitors were all very friendly. You do need a rental car, because the location is remote and there is hardly any public transport/taxis. The horses were reliable and the outdoor rides were beautiful. The booking of the trip with Laure–Anne went smoothly. She responded quickly, adequately and is very attentive. I think the website is well put together and is nicer than those of other organizations. I would definitely book a trip with Outside the Corral again for a next holiday!

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!

Going on a horse riding holiday had been a dream of mine for a long time, and I finally found my way to Outside the Corral. Laure-Anne was incredibly helpful in finding the perfect trip for me. She responded quickly, provided plenty of useful information, and made the whole process so easy. In the end, I went on a fantastic trip to Iceland and I loved every minute of it. Laure-Anne warned me that once you’ve experienced a horse riding holiday, you’ll be hooked… and she was absolutely right! I’m already planning my next adventure, of course with Outside the Corral.

My riding holiday, Castles of Gredos, in Spain was an unforgettable experience. Beautiful surroundings and well-trained and cared-for horses. Everything was organised to perfection, both leading up to and during the trip. Laure-Anne was always ready to help with all my questions.
