Equine Sport Centre for Horse Riding - Stellenbosch Winelands

What a wonderful experience! Surprised my partner with the Esclusive Wine Tasting Ride and boy was he surprised. Extremely accommodating with a novice rider but also super fun for intermediate rider as well. Horses are well taken care of and was such a pleasure as well as relaxing with beautiful scenery, great wine and food. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a different kind of adventure!

I started riding around a year ago and have been at ESC for three months. I’m pretty sure I’ve learned more in the last three months than the entire year before that. The horses are incredibly well-schooled and looked after, and the instructors work really hard to meet you where you’re at, with well planned lessons and a plan to get you where you want to be. The entire team at ESC is patient, kind, and always willing to help no matter whether you’re competitive or a beginner or somewhere in between. I’ve since moved my own filly there and she’s honestly blossomed since the move - she’s looking beautiful, strong and healthy and is happier than ever. The outrides are also gorgeous and the range of arenas and facilities make for opportunities to work on absolutely any discipline you might be interested in. Highly, highly recommend for lessons, livery and trail rides.

Honestly one of the best places for outrides! Not just in Stellies! Awesome people- amazing horses. If you’re in town, it’s a must. ❤️

This is an amazing experience. Fun for children and experienced riders. You can sometimes see some wildlife, have a Sunset Trail Ride. Have a wine tasting ride. Or just a pony ride for the younger kiddos.

Absolute great place for trail rides and riding lessons. Fantastic, kind, powerful and nice horses and the best teacher Chantell! Suitable for all levels (from beginners to professional).

Absolutely fantastic! So accommodating and understanding. Thorough to the group's individual needs. We were a group of 9 novice riders. On the day, 6 group members arrived an hour later than we had initially booked for, as they did not follow thorough instructions of using the gps ``Winelands Saggy Stone R304 Stellenbosch '' location. Veronica was so lenient and understanding that she arranged with the lead rider to check her schedule if she was able to fit us in on the same day. Her intentions were to reschedule us for another day if there was not an available time slot for that specific day. We have not come across a business that is so understanding and accommodating. In addition, we were different sizes and shapes as individuals but all catered for. Further provision was made for one group member that has physical difficulty. In addition, another group member that has height phobia was accommodated with one employee walking the entire hour ensuring that she felt safe and at ease. We highly recommend them.

We had a great time! Chantelle, our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. The horses were well matched to their riders and we all felt very safe. Would highly recommend as an affordable and fun option!

Absolutely amazing experience! Very much under-advertised. Staff were really friendly, accommodating and the booking process was effortless.We saw many other animals during our horseback ride which was a lovely surprise. The ride was on a well-maintained farm.

What a lovely, scenic ride. My friend and I went today and were so incredibly pleased with the staff, the horses and the experience as a whole. The natural surroundings combined with the sounds of nature was amazing. They accommodate for riders of all levels and make the experience amazing. I would gladly recommend Equine Sport Centre for a beautiful experience with these beautiful animals.

We did the 60min trail ride and it was quite an experience! The traillead was very friendly and we had great conversations with her. It was also a good trail for beginners as well as experienced riders. Would definitely recommend doing it again, perhaps the winetrail which is just as nice!
