Don't book this! I booked this experience as I have used viator before and trust them as a company. However I booked a 2 hour horse ride on beach. We were picked up in a disgusting old van with leather ripped off seats and very unpleasant. We got to the destination and we were out on the horses. One of the men (there were a lot of men sitting around there - lots of rubbish and bottles strewn all over the area) started walking us down the beach. Then a photographer came and started taking photos which was fine. After an hour and 15 minutes our guide sort of guided us to a secluded place where he was talking to us in Egyptian - we said we couldn't understand him and he put it in Google translate that he wanted ten dollars tip. I only had 300 Egyptian pounds and gave him that. He didn't look very happy about that and he then took us back to the start and said it was finished and we got off the horses. Then they offered us a drink and told us to take a seat to look at the photos. We took the drink and looked at the photos which were nice but then he said he wanted 10 euros from each of us to send the pictures over to our phone. I explained we didn't want the photos and had no more cash and he said card card and was thrusting the card machine towards me. I said again I don't want the photos and then he shouted for me to pay for the water we'd just had. Again I explained no cash so he said you'll have to pay by card - it was for 200 Egyptian pounds. I don't know whether it was thankful or not but the machine didn't work. He got quite frustrated and it was very uncomfortable. He said you'll have to get the money out from your hotel and my man will wait for it. We then had to endure the return trip in the awful van and get cash out whilst driver was waiting. I paid over £70 for this trip and it didn't even last an hour and a half and it was quite upsetting as there were many men there and it actually felt threatening at times. I would definitely not recommend it.

Perfect 👌 staff are friendly and very helpful. Horses were amazing
Good experience my daughter loved it. Only downside they dint give water for free.
Fantastic excursion our 1st time on a house but the guide was excellent and had us at ease as soon as we got on the horse would highly recommend this to anyone
Was excellent from start to finish, great communication, pick and drop off with no issues, and the overall horse riding experience at the beach was priceless. The guides were very knowledgeable and felt safe at all times, thanks for a great experience:)
Absolutely amazing experience I became poorly after my ride as I was so run down with the heat and my guide was amazing with me Gutted I wasn’t able to get his name to thank him properly Amazing with the horses and make you feel comfortable and get the most out of the experience My guide videoed me and my husband riding while my daughters was walking been lead Amazing experience and amazing workers the horses are also very well looked after and you can see the connection through the workers and horses
Hossain was a superb guide. Spoke English well and consistently making sure we were ok. Also, took videos and photos of us whilst riding. Both Cappucino and Camilla were superb horses that were in good condition and well cared for. Ride was full up time. Lots of gallops and a lush ride in the sea. Transfers were prompt and air conditioned. Beautiful views. Photos available, quite reasonable but no pressure to buy.
I would advise everyone to try it
Prompt pick up. Lovely experience and well worth them money. Highly recommend.
Loved every moment, awesome experience.
Our horse riding experience in Sharm El Sheikh with Ahmed was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, Ahmed made us feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease. His professionalism and patience in teaching us how to ride properly turned what could have been a daunting activity into one of the most enjoyable experiences of our trip. Neither my partner nor I had ever experienced horse riding like this before, and Ahmed’s guidance made all the difference. He gave his full attention, ensuring we were confident and secure, while also making the experience fun and memorable. His polite and caring nature stood out—he treated us like family and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible time. Ahmed’s genuine dedication to customer satisfaction was evident throughout. Without him, the experience simply would not have been the same. We highly recommend that anyone booking horse riding in Sharm El Sheikh request Ahmed as their guide and coach. He deserves recognition for his outstanding service, and in our opinion, a raise from his employer for the incredible effort he puts into his work. This was a highlight of our trip, and thanks to Ahmed, it’s an experience we will never forget.
One of The best experiences I've ever had, and the staff are very friendly, always asking if you need help.
We booked this activity last minute, the day before at midnight and they confirmed right away and after a couple of minutes sent us the time of pick up. Very easy and such a great experience, horse are well maintained, clean and looked pretty healthy. Don’t hesitate and book it!!
Really nice morning- guides were really good and spoke good English! Haggle with the photographer!
I wanted to go horse riding for my birthday. I went with my boyfriend who had no experiences with riding. Everything was perfect! It was the best experience ever - the horses were nice and the guide was so kind and professional. If you know how to ride a horse you’ll get a good portion of galloping and swimming with horses. Wow! I’ll remember this trip forever.
Absolutely amazing experience the staff were so supportive and helpful. Absolutely amazing experience. We payed £15 per person for photos at the end which they preferred cash but you could pay card if you didn’t have card. Photos were brilliant they were telling us position to do but if you said no they wouldn’t push you to do anything you didn’t want to do. We cantered but as soon as we said that was enough they stopped and we walked back. Absolutely amazing experience highly recommend.
The horse riding in the dessert was amazing and the people were so polite, friendly and courteous throughout the horse riding event. The morning was wonderful and we would highly recommend it for the whole family.

Had such an amazing horse riding experience! Everything was so well organized, and the horses were beautiful and well cared for. The staff were all incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we felt comfortable and safe throughout. A special thank you to Ahmad, who went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. Can’t wait to come back again!
First time riding a horse and I was nervous but Achmed was kind an patient with me I was soon at ease. I booked for the 2 hours and had the pleasure of riding 2 of there beautiful horses, Mango and Chocolate who were very well cared for and the scenery was stunning. Totally professional from start to finish. Highly recommend
This was first time riding a horse and was very nervous but was totally put at ease by the staff and had a wonderful time. They were friendly and professional and the horses were very well cared for
An amazing experience it’s all my youngest wanted to do, after our beach ride she was able to canter with the guide she absolutely loved it ! they spent the time getting lovely photos and made sure we were all comfortable with our horses Thank you for a great time
We have had the most amazing morning horse riding along the beach!! I have ridden since I was young and have my own horses so the guys gave me so much free rein and we galloped down the beach so many times!! And on the way back! My partner has only been on a horse a few times and they even had him galloping! Thanks so much guys this was the best!! ❤️
It was very nice friendly horses and guides, we went to the beach and it was amazing the horses were calm
Guides were great, my children aged 8 and 11 loved having their own horse. The guide was friendly and engaged the children, asking Ng if they would like to go faster etc. Smooth transfer there and back.
Best Horse riding experience in desert. If you love something like this as we as family did it for first time and we enjoyed a lot.
1 hour desert horse ride was terrible experience. The horses were looking neglected, we stopped after 20 min and asked to be taken back to the hotel. Nothing at all enjoyable and would not recommend.
Great experience. My daughter rides and Abdul catered for her, galloping off along the beach, whilst also ensuring my horse prodded behind at a walk. I was trotting by the end thanks to Abduls lessons. Really relaxing by the sea as the horse walked, listening to the waves lapping in, was a really enjoyable experience. The horses were treated well and were impeccably behaved . I would definitely recommend
I left the tour unsatisfied. First of all the beach scenery was poor. There is a lot of trash on the beach. The operator may not be blamed for is letting tourist pay extra for riding next to a fukty beach. After all paying extra raises expectations. Therefore it does have a great effect on the experience. What the tour operator also can be blamed for is the way the horses are treated. They were kicked and beaten. Also the tour itself was not great. It was more about trying to sell bad quality pictures than actual horseback riding. I have better experiences elsewhere and this was just very disappointing tourist trap.
Beautiful horses, amazing trip and amazing staff. Went with my dad, and I’ve always loved horses, definitely recommend.
I had an horse ride and it was beautiful. It was my first time but I learnt very fast. I will recommend it and I will come back. It was very fun

Great experience, attentive staff. I was new to horse riding and the support person put me at ease. Go visit this place in sharm al sheikh
I had someone named Ahmed, who was lovely in taking care of me and my friend. It was amazing experience and recommended it to anyone even as a first timer myself.
For a relaxing experience, I would recommend it. Solo traveller and I felt safe and I trusted the horse keeper Saad and he made sure I was safe.

Me and my husband had the most amazing horse riding experience and our guide made it even better thanks to his amazing service and support. Would definitely do this again!!!
Alhumdulilah, Saad was very good at riding horse and hosting and he was good at teaching and enjoyed a lot of conversation
It was nice for the first 30mins and then it got tiring plus my thighs were killing me. The overall experience was good and nice.
Nice time with healthy horses. Enjoyed it would recommend for first time riders. Try this and thank me later.
Fantastic experience, second time because one was not enough! Very good guide, also fun in the water! Thank you for the memories!
horses well cared for and weather was not too hot, rode with experienced son of the owner of the business who was lovely and very interesting to talk to. For those who can ride there is the option for a bit of speed through the saddles were not the most comfortable to sit into.
Very nice experience, our guide was helpful and kind. Very easy for beginners, I recommend to everyone.
Absolutely loved it! The staff were very lovely & friendly, especially my guide Ahmad. Thanks to all, I will definitely be coming back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had a wonderful beach ride with the team. I was very well looked after and would absolutely reccomend to anyone whether in a group or solo!
