Day 1

Into the Sacred Valley

Amazing trip with amazing women. I recommend this company 100%. Horses were great, our equestrian leader Ken was perfect and Lee Pressly planned everything to perfection

By Jennifer H for France - LEEP Travel on Nov 03, 2025

Thank you so much for your kind review and heartfelt recommendation, Jennifer! We’re delighted to hear that the horses and our team helped make your trip so memorable. We always strive to create a seamless and enjoyable experience, and completely agree—it’s the connections and memories made along the way that make each adventure truly special. We look forward to welcoming you again soon and continuing to exceed your expectations!

If you are lucky enough to travel with Lee Pressley or even just have her organize your trip, you will get the experience of her joyful predisposition to any adventure. Enjoying time with her on these adventures is a bonus as she makes connections with everyone. She is delighted by all the guides and hosts and her curiosity is rewarded with tidbits of information that expand the experience at the same time making it more personal and intimate. We most recently rode the chateaux of the Loire with 10 other ladies. It was magical, fun, entertaining and a great all round experience. We all agreed, despite not knowing all the adventurers before traveling, that we could easily do another adventure together, the experiences were so positive!

By Juliet L for France - LEEP Travel on Nov 03, 2025

Thank you, Juliet, for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed review. It’s wonderful to know that traveling with our team fostered meaningful connections and created such a personal and intimate adventure through the Loire Valley. We share your belief that it’s the shared experiences, new memories and group bond that make each hosted trip truly memorable. We look forward to helping you craft more unforgettable adventures in the future!

Everything was amazing, the accommodations were warm/welcoming and Mary and PJ took great care of us, with an amazing breakfast daily, and great packed lunch! Oliver and his horses were top tier and the entire experience was 10/10. Highly recommend.

By Melissa C for Ireland - Galway Getaway on Oct 21, 2025

Thank you Melissa, so glad you had a fantastic time! Ireland truly is the Land of the Horse, and the Irish sure know how to show you a good time along with their warm hospitality.

This is a camping and horse riding trip. Weather was great; good riding. Adrienne does a great job with the organizing and the food is always good! This was my second trip to Beaver Meadows and I love it!

By Sue M for Colorado - Beaver Meadows Horse Camping on Oct 02, 2025
