The tour guides were incredible!!! They made everyone (group of 12) comfortable by giving us important information. Everyone rode like advanced riders, what an experience and a memorable one.

Was Such an amazing ride. The guide was friendly , calm and really took his time with explaining how to control the horses. We were a group of 12 and had two guides, they worked really well together. We hardly had any hiccups on the trail, except for two horses getting really excited at one point, but even with that, because we all knew how to work well with the horses we were able to control them in no time. I'd definitely recommend it to everyone and I'm sure I'll be back sometime soon. Thank you to the amazing team at Heaven and Earth Trails.

It has been 25 years since I have been on a horse and let me tell you... I have never felt SO alive. An amazing group of people that are passionate about what they do and have a real love for the horses they work with daily.

As beginners, we were made to feel very comfortable and confident with these very special horses. Our guide, Best, shared some interesting facts about the farm too. He is very knowledgeable and extremely competent, constantly keeping an eye out. We were lead through apple and pear orchards, picking fresh apples from the trees as we went, up into the Hemel en Aarde mountains, even breaking into a nice trot, which was an exhilarating experience for us all! We will definitely return, hopefully someday soon. Thank you Danie!

My 7 year old daughter and husband went on the orchard trail with Louzanne and had an amazing time. It was my daughter's first proper ride. The instructor was friendly, kind and patient and had my daughter riding within minutes. It was a hot day but the trail was shady through the orchards. Would highly recommend it and we can't wait to visit again. Perfect for families with kids and for complete beginners. Wonderful experience :-)

I had a wonderful experience. We did the Orchard Trail during rainy weather, which surprisingly made the experience even more enjoyable. The host and instructor for the day, Danie, was very friendly and accommodating. The surroundings are beautiful and the horses were incredible. I would definitely love to return someday.

By far the best horse riding experience we have had yet. Louzanne was an amazing guide and made it truly magical for us adults and for the kids. Highly recommend and plan to be there again soon!

What a truly amazing experience, the Heaven on Earth Trails are actually heaven on earth. The beautiful surrounds adds to the majestic experience. Louzanne our riding instructor was awesome, thank you for making the experience wonderful, was so nervous as it was my first time on a horse, but as soon as we got going and one became in tune with the horse, it was pure bliss. My girlfriend and I are already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you

Danie is very accommodating and booking a ride was done with ease. Our guide Jackie was great and the Exclusive route was beautiful. I'll give Heaven and Earth Trails two thumbs up and a definite recommendation.

Hello! For us the price was 450 rands per person (about 32€), which in my experience was a cheap price as the tour was about 1 hour and 45 minutes. The guide (Bronwyn) was just the best and made the experience memorable for both of us even we were on very different levels with our riding skills. She even took photos of us during the tour and sent them via what's app later 😍

Just wondering if anyone knows the approximate cost of say a 1.5 hr trail ride?
Didn't see cost on website.
