Raphine Horseback Discovery and Adventure Tour

One of the most enjoyable aspects of riding a horse is the bond that is created between humans and equines. Offering our customers the opportunity to get to know their horse by grooming and brushing and dressing them, helps to develop this bond.
By the time we head out for our ride, our customers have developed an emotional relationship with their horse which results in an uplifting experience. This is a unique experience and it is more and more difficult to find someplace where you can interact with horses, learn a whole lot and have an amazing ride and adventure.
