About this experience
Experience the thrill of Santorini on horseback, featuring an unforgettable beach gallop along Exo Gialos Beach!
This advanced-level ride lasts approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes and is designed for confident riders who are comfortable at a faster pace and capable of handling their horse independently. Starting from the traditional stables, located in Exo Katikies near Fira , the tour blends natural beauty with adrenaline, offering a truly unique riding experience.
Guests can choose between two options: private and semi-private. The private safari is tailored to your skill, pace, and preferences, perfect for solo riders or small groups seeking full control over the ride. The semi-private safari keeps the adventure intimate while offering a social atmosphere with a few other experienced riders.
The route begins at the stables, where you will meet your horse and guide. From there, we ride through rural farmland along quiet trails, gradually approaching the wild beauty of Exo Gialos Beach . Once at the shore, the ride intensifies, and you will experience the freedom and rush of galloping across the sand , with the waves rolling beside you. The combination of rugged terrain and coastal beauty makes this route ideal for skilled riders seeking a more dynamic and challenging experience.
Choosing between private and semi-private depends on your ideal riding atmosphere. The private option gives you maximum freedom and customization, great for focused riders or those celebrating a special moment. The semi-private option brings the shared joy of riding with like-skilled guests, maintaining the same pace and challenge level while encouraging connection and friendly interaction.
To help you relive the experience long after the ride ends, your guide will gladly take photos and short videos throughout the tour using your own phone. Whether you're galloping along the shoreline, silhouetted against the setting sun, or simply sharing a quiet moment with your horse, these moments will be beautifully captured without interrupting the natural flow of the ride.
