Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    We have been riding in many countries around the world and this was one of the most pleasurable experiences we have had. Deb’s horses are so well trained - an absolute pleasure to ride. At first I was a bit worried as there were 2 beginners with us and I thought they may slow our ride but often throughout the ride Debbie would take the beginners ahead and the three of us would canter /gallop to catch up. Most horses would be jumpy hanging back but not these horses! Perfectly chilled. Deb gave us such a great tour of the back country , teaching us about the history, flora and fauna constantly. She also took photos and videos and sent them to us afterwards. It was a pleasant 1 hour 20 from Queenstown but well worth it. We also had lunch at Dunstan house in Clyde on the way back - recommended by Deb and well worth it.

    A fantastic trip with awesome people and horses. The guides were fantastic and we had all so much fun together. I feel blessed to have seen the remote, hard to get access to areas of New Zealand. The views were fantastic and we were treated by the weather gods to great days and stunning nights.

    It was my first horseriding experience and they made it a great one for me! My guide Louise was very lovely and encouraging. She explained lots of details as we walked through the trail, answered all my questions and added some other knowledge too.

    Horses are well-maintained and trained.

    It was very worth it and I definitely recommend coming for a ride regardless of your riding experience!

    Thanks for the fun times!

    The High Country Pub Trail with Kel was absolutely amazing. I really had so much fun. We cantered a lot, which I appreciated a lot as an experienced rider, plus there is this beautiful scenery with lupin flowers, sheep, cows and deers which is just breathtaking. Kel is a great guide and I really liked her great energy. During the trek, she told me a lot about the history of the place, which I found very interesting. Dembe was such a lovely horse. I have to say that it was the best riding trek I've ever had so far. Thank you so much for this great experience, dear Kel!
