Your horse riding Maldives experience includes 20 minutes of riding per rider. If you book for more than one person, you will take turns riding the horse, so the total duration of the experience will be longer. For example, two riders will take approximately twice as long as one rider.

You will ride one of our gentle Marwari horses during the horse riding Maldives experience. Our rides are conducted at walking pace and are suitable for beginners as well as those with previous riding experience.

Our horses include Gia, a gentle and graceful 8-year-old mare known for her calm and patient temperament, and Sophie, a 7-year-old mare with a spirited, friendly personality who is well-trained.

Your horse riding in Maafushi Island Maldives experience takes place on Mantafushi, a small island connected to Maafushi by road. We will collect you by buggy from your Maafushi accommodation or Maafushi Jetty and bring you back after the horse riding Maldives activity, so you do not need to arrange a transfer.
