What a Fantastic Holiday - by far the best riding experience I've had! The trail its self was challenging in parts with steep terrain but extremely fun with plenty of opportunities for fast canters. My horse 'Conejo' was awesome - very sweet and a total gentleman, forward going but responsive and I felt safe at all times. All the horses are extremely well looked after and fit. Our guide NACHO was amazing - he made the holiday!...

Our guide NACHO was amazing - he made the holiday! - Nacho is extremely experienced and professional with all the horses and always happy to help out - he made us feel safe whilst ensuring we had lots of fun! Nachos assistant - Danny was also great - i looked forward to the lunch picnics nearly as much as the riding! I will definitely be returning soon!

last week i completed my sixth riding holiday .which was the bandit trail led by NACHO who I consider the best trail leader I have had .He was most helpful in helping us to get on being both over sixty.We rode an interesting trail over the escarpements of the southern pyranees through woods and along the cliff edges with wonderful views,staying in small hotels and farm houses enroute.Nacho kept us amused all evening over supper with his wonderful stories of life in spain,One must be fit to lead ones horse down very rocky terrain and gallop along flat sandy roads.when required.In all an excellent holiday where horses welfare and care comes first

A friend and I have recently returned from the Barbarossa Pirates Trail along the Costa Brava coastline. It was not our first trip with Panorama Trails and it was certainly not our last!
We love the friendliness of the people, the wonderful Catalonian landscape that offers everything from snow - covered mountains to endless beaches and everything in between. But the very best thing are - of course - the horses.
The guide Rudi and his crew always do a very good job in matching horses and riders - there are horses to satisfy everyone, from advanced beginners to experienced riders. Mine was spirited and forward - going but really gentle and easy to handle on the ground. All the horses are really well trained and incredibly sure - footed - there are some very steep, rocky and somewhat adventurous climbs on the Pirates Trail where we had to lead the horses downhill (good trekking shoes pay off!) but I could always trust my horse even in the most difficult terrain. It's amazing what these horses can do!
The scenery changes almost every day along the way, the first half of the trail goes through the Cap de Creus region with high cliffs, beautiful views and lovely picknick breaks on the beach in small, hidden bays. During the second half of the week we reaches the flat plains of the Gulf of Roses hinterland with several opportunities for fast galloping and a nice long canter along the beach.
Once again, we enjoyes the (much too short) trip, the great food, good company, relaxed atmosphere and the wonderful, hard - working horses!

I was there in June and it was the best trip ever! Rudi's trails are pure adventure and well organized! The horses are sooo lovely and wear one safely through the terrain! The food is very good and tasty! I will back return next years!!!!!

I did the Path of Herdsmen with Nacho. He is a very experienced guide and a really horseman. Food was delicious and the hotels fantastic. Amazing riding!
