Possibly one of the most expensive adventures you can do in split but worth every cent 10 times. Since not everything is in the description here, I'll tell you about the process and what's on offer. Attention spoilers!!! In the morning it starts at 8 a.m. don’t be surprised, the tourist office opens at 8 sharp. Then it’s a 3/4 hour drive in a jeep into the country’s interior towards the Bosnian border. The first stop is riding in the middle of the country surrounded by fields in the sun and the mountains in the distance. Duration around 1.5 hours with instruction. Then there is really cool grilled food in a private restaurant. As if that weren't enough, there is also a 3.5-hour qout tour where you can do a really big lap through the prerie. Spoilers end. I heartily recommend this tour and not thinking about the price. It is offered more than you think and you are treated as a friend not as a tourist.

This day tour has been the absolute highlight so far! Our driver and tour guide was just great, friendly and a kind hearted person. He could even speak German, which was an extra plus. The people on the horse ranch were super nice and very competent. The riding was absolutely fun and photos were taken all the time with a camera that we received by email. The whole time we got coffee, soft drinks and water. Then lunch, typical Croatian food in a cozy, secluded tavern. Next to it there was a river where you could cool off. And finally the quad biking - that was unforgettable. We not only drove up the mountain, but also to a lake where we could swim briefly. Just great. I can only recommend this tour.

A really great unique experience! Thanks to Lucia and Toni, you were great! Unfortunately, it was very, very hot that day, which of course made everything a bit more strenuous... Riding wasn't the right thing for my husband, but he was as happy as Bolle riding a quad! I would have liked to have ridden longer (sure, it's a bit of a girl thing) :) but it was just too hot for humans and animals! But Lucia was super nice and we felt in good hands! The quad tour was the burner! More than 3 hours through the Dalmatian hinterland, mountains, serpentines.... Greetings from "Game of thrones"! Just crazy! But not for the faint of heart :) We'll be back!

Beautiful views of the mountains and the coastline. The horses are very well behaved so no experience on a horse is needed, they are very gentle and lovely animals. The guide was friendly and you have some wine, water and food after the ride which was great. We had a nice time and I would recommend to anyone who wants to try! Thank you horseback riding Podstrana

It is a very beautiful area for horseriding and it's very easy to get used to the horses. All in all it is highly recommended.
