Guestbook

I got so many fantastic impressions that it's really difficult to say what I liked most. I enjoyed the landscape, the pretty villages, the food and meeting new peoples from different countries. What I really miss is my faithful partner "Zeus" who was carrying me safely during the Herdsmen Trail. Please say hello to him. Hope to see you in spring again!

Dear Daniela and Rudy,

We really really had a great time at the Herdsmen trail at the beginning of September. Rudy you were fantastic in so many ways, we loved our horses and the beautifull Mountains. Also the sleeping places, the lunches from Buffalo, the weather… we had a great time! Thank you for everything!!! Maybe we come back next year for the Bandit Trail or the coast trail (we also like going fast J).

I have a question to you Rudy, you made beautifull pictures in the Mountains! We want to make a photobook so we can't wait to receive them. I know you're busy but is it possible to sent the pictures to us?! You can use my mailadres!

Thank you again for the great time we had and maybe see you next year!

Greetings,

Joop, Fons, Roeland, Jan, Marieke and Charlotte

Love the February's picture from your calendar - what a fabulous holiday that was :-)

Of Rudi's varied trails, this must be the trail for amazing panoramas which got more stunning each day. Mufassa scrambled up the rocky mountainsides with much greater enthusiasm than I scrambled down on my own 2 feet. Fully functional ankles, knees, and hips are an asset as are non-slip boots.
There were good opportunities for canters the first day, we all enjoyed lovely refreshing swims in mountain pools the 2nd &3rd day. as we climbed higher into the Pyrenees, we looked over ridge after ridge of mountains, green meadows, carpeted with wild flowers and herds of wild horses with their foals. A stallion came to check us out, which Mufassa eye-balled, but luckily Rudi has no mares-- only the 2 legged kind! There were also hundreds of cows with bells ringing around their necks, that for sure ''The hills were alive with The Sound of Music'' in this film like setting.
Muscle man Nachos kept us safe, helped by a great bunch of fellow riders, including 3 nurses, a horse vet and a Padre---in case things got desperate----no Caroline, we did not need your services this year! My 5th trail with Panorama-trails, an unforgettable week, my thanks to all and fellow riders.

Greetings from Canada! My friend and I had the time of our lives when we went on the Mediterranean Trail in early May of this year. I had the perfect horse (I'm sure she would argue and say hers was the best), and our personalities matched very well. On the way back to the airport, we were trying to calculate the cost of purchasing our mounts and having them shipped back to Canada (haha). It was my first experience riding in another country, and I can say that I will never travel without a horse again! The views were astounding and I still look at pictures and videos from the trip with a fond nostalgia. During the final breakfast, every person on the ride agreed with enthusiasm that they would love to have another week with your fabulous horses. I would like to thank you for your excellent staff and ride guides, who are nothing but the best, and I hope this isn't the last time we meet.
