Description

Meet your guide and friendly horses near Nungwi, Pwani mchangani or michamvi, depending on your preferred location. After a short safety briefing and horse introduction session, begin your ride along the coast. The pace is relaxed and guided by experienced local handlers to ensure both safety and enjoyment. Feel the rhythm of the horse as you ride along the beach, with the sound of waves lapping against the shore and palm trees swaying in the breeze. It’s a magical experience, whether you choose the golden hour ride (sunset) or a cool early-morning ride. Take incredible photos along the way some guides can even help you capture beautiful riding shots with the ocean in the background, or reflective moments as your horse gently walks through shallow waters. Special sunset rides offer some of the most photogenic moments you’ll have on the island. Depending on the tides and your confidence, you may have the chance to ride your horse into the shallow sea waters for a light splash and fun experience (not deep swimming). It’s a thrilling moment for both the rider and the horse and makes for memorable photos. After the ride, visit the stables where your horse is cared for. Learn how local Zanzibari handlers feed, clean, and care for the animals. You can help brush the horse or offer it a snack (like a banana or apple) as a thank you. This is a great learning experience for families with kids or those interested in animal care.
