Here’s what folks are saying about their equestrian vacation experience and High Pointe International Equestrian Tours:
“The ride was great. Really VERY special. The horses were very sound, good tempered and very easy to handle. Saddles and other tack of good quality. The rides were very well dimensioned and with adequate alternation of gates (walk, trot and canter). Stops for lunch in restaurants or picnics were always a delight. The places Antoine chose for the rides were also fantastic. Long streaks of riding trough beautiful forests, followed by the crossing of gorgeous little villages with castles, large “maisons” and “chateaux”. Riding on asphalt roads were minimal and always very safe. The people in the countryside are very educated and respected riders and horses. Not one problem in 6 days of riding. We have made many rides in Brazil and in Argentina and we can assure you that this was the best by far. As good as the rides we organize for our family with our own horses.Thus, we have to thank you very much for suggesting this ride. It was worth every penny. We really enjoyed it plan to return whenever possible.” France Dordogne Valley Ride, F.S. Brazil
“I appreciate your timely responses, the other company never gave me that courtesy.” M.M. New Jersey
“Your group is very capable! I had used other agencies in the past but their offerings did not meet my needs.” N.R. California
“Fabulous trip! Thank you. Fernando is so Charming and both he and Jane are so attentive to their guests – Fernando especially is like a Mother Hen, making sure his “chicks” are always safe and happy.” Spanish Trails, Siestas & Dressage Ride – C.G. California
“The guide became worried when he saw my tears as we galloped along the beach. I told him they were not tears of fear but tears of exhilaration.”
A.D. Canada
“Nick’s trip was AMAZING… the other travelers were wonderful, thank you again organizing it.” Compostella Pilgrimage Ride – D.P. Conneticut
“In American, unless you have access to private property, you just can’t take off and ride all over the countryside like we did. The experience of riding
quality horses, meeting wonderful guides and inn owners; and seeing beautiful country made this a holiday I’ll never forget”
L.G. California
“….the horses are so much better I ever imagined – definitely not a nose to tail ride! ….much better than a sitting on a bus with 48 other people!”
D.V. California
“Roaring into free flight for the first time like that – my world encased in the sound of rushing wind and four hooves pounding through tide-swept sand
– goes beyond fantasy, affecting a dozen more senses in the body than the five that science knows about.” N.Y. Newsday
“ ….Ireland is the best place for “going out in the nature,” having a fine ride on a fine horse and perhaps even testing your mettle a bit.”
S.T. Atlanta
“I believe everyone comes into a person’s life for a reason, although our initial connection was business, I believe you help people fulfill their dreams and wishes” B.J. Arizona
“Your group is very capable! I had used other agencies in the past but their offerings did not meet my needs.” N.R. California
“I wanted to write to tell you that Camilla and I had a marvelous time on our riding vacation at Epona at the end of May. It couldn’t have been more perfect! The accommodations and property were charming, the hospitality and food incredible and the horses were great beyond our expectations. The lessons were very valuable, the horse treks beautiful and fun, and the side trips a perfect and enjoyable break. Fernando and Jane and their daughters are a special and wonderful family, indeed! Two of the people in the group had been back at least 8 times…..could there be a better testimonial?” K.E. California
“Trip was fabulous, thanks for everything. You did a great job!” C.K. New York
“Thank you for your help… Telling all my friends about you.” M.C. Oklahoma
“Thank you so much for the organization and the care you gave us for our trip. Thank you even more for the care that was given to my mom during her ordeal. We had a wonderful time and Bertie and Nichola are the greatest hosts! We will be back.” M.B. Pennsylvania
“I had a wonderful, excellent time. Riding in Exmoor is like nothing I have ever experienced in the US – you see amazing beauty, ride great, great horses; walk, trot, and canter through all of it with a really experienced guide….one of my best riding experiences/vacations ever!! They are wonderful people and made me feel wonderfully at home. They have a VERY nice house that is good for groups of 6 or so, I stayed in a cottage that was very nice, but again, not fancy. Just what I wanted. The horses were great – I rode two, Atlanta and Camilla. They were very well mannered, responsive, and had plenty of energy – just great, especially considering that my riding skills were a bit (!) rusty. And the horses that I didn’t ride seemed to be about the same with those that rode them. Responsive, calm, and strong. The terrain was varied and gorgeous, sometimes we were on trails, sometimes not, we trotted and cantered over the moors in both sun and mist. We saw red deer and wild Exmoor ponies with their foals. You’ll have to do the rides to appreciate it all. I suppose the easiest way to explain it is that I look forward to going back there, as soon as I can.“ M.M. New Jersey
“Everything was excellent! The highlight of our ride was the pace and the challenging slopes, both up & down! I would absolutely recommend this ride to my friends ….if they would take me along!” F.D. Florida
“The ride was great! We loved everything about it … horses, people and venues. There was nothing we would have changed… Thanks for all of your help and that of the Kerry stable crowd!” L.B. Florida

Riders answer: “Finding out we had not chosen the wrong travel agent.” Steve P., Virginia
“…our trip was FANTASTIC!! Food,lodging,guides and our horses were too fabulous for words! Lari puts on a quite a professional tour. Having brought my nine year old daughter I was quite pleased with care and encouragement she received and I did not feel nervous at all! In my opinion each horse was carefully chosen specifically for each riders skill level. Each day was an adventure in Paradise! The scenery and well laid trails were too much to hope for! Thank you High Pointe Tours, we will be back!” California Dreamin’ Ride, J.G. California
