About
Ride along perfect white beaches of the Walker Bay Conservancy and whale sanctuary which is arguably the best land-based area in the world to watch whales (whale watching capital of the world from June to December – whales and their calves often come within meters of the coastline). Admire these magnificent creatures and their “aquabatic” displays, splashing, crashing and blowing, breaching, lobtailing, spy-hopping and sailing close to shore.

- menv20180 contributionsFantastic relaxed morning on the horses, beautiful sceneryWe loved the horse ride through the mountains and had such a great morning on the horses.

- Barbz2350 contributionsShould do loads of funIt was a nice calm tour. The guide was very helpful and good with children. We went through the fynbos and went in between wine grapes.Written 25 April 2023
- BethG3350 contributionsHorses at ServiceThe African Horse Company has a vast arrays of possible rides and experiences. I have talked with those who know-- and I look forward to taking my granddaughter of 15 whenever we can arrange a transatlantic flight over. I am also aware that Howard makes access to his horses available to special learning children so they can make contact and have a personal touch with a horse. Very exciting to say the least. Bravo to Howard for his service.Written 2 February 2023
- sosman26070 contributionsBeautiful ride through the fynbosMy dad and I did the 2hr mountain ride with Howard. What a lovely experience to be in the foothills surrounded by glorious fynbos. Beautiful and peaceful. Our horses Patches and Pico were well behaved and sure footed. There are opportunities for experienced riders to trot and canter. A highlight of our visit to Stanford.Written 26 September 2022
- MohamedBray0 contributionsBeautiful Horses and RideWe did a family ride through the mountains of Stanford. Randall was an excellent guide and host. Our kids loved every moment of the ride. The horses are really well groomed and trained. The temperament of the horses was well suited to a family ride.Written 22 July 2022

Had an adventurous horse riding experience in December 2024. The horses were calm & confident, the team lead was relaxed, which made the ride feel safe and enjoyable. 🐴 Plus, the experience was good value for money, three hours at a decent price!
The views along the dirt path leading to the beach are magnificent with very few vehicles passing by. However, heads-up: it’s a one-hour ride to the beach and another hour back. No toilet stops along the way. 🚫🚽
I wouldn't recommend this for beginner riders, take a shorter horse ride instead. If you’re comfortable on a horse, this is a fun outing! 🌟

I'm a quiet experienced horserider myself. But I have had a severe accident at high speed a few years ago, and I'm scared at very high speed. The 2 guys who were with me on the tour could cross over the beach, the guide did really care about me and stayed a little behind with me so I could canter on a more steady speed. It made my experience wonderfull! I have never been horseriding on the beach and I loved it, thanks to my wonderfull guide! But experience is required!
