Horse riding/trek
We googled horse riding before we left Germany , as with COVID we was'nt sure what was open. I looked at their website and it looked the best one by far, for me its really important to choose the right stables as my husband has never been on a horse before and I have been to some stables and just not bothered. They are the only stables which offer Private Treks, I booked this because of COVID and also because i am an advanced rider with many years of experience , and this gave me the opportunity to have a little canter to catch up, they only offer his though to the advanced rider only. On their website they have all the information you need to know, very well designed. We also looked on their facebook page , as they put pictures up of everything they do, so you can see what the horses are like as well. So once we arrived , i whats app Sara to book our trek, we received a very quick reply and was booked in. We used Google Maps to find them and it took us straight there. We received a very friendly welcoming from the dogs and the owners. Sara was our guide for today and the whole experience was amazing, my husband was a little nervous and in no time felt very relaxed and got to know his horse as we went round. Not only was Sara a very good guide with lots of recommendations, she also was a great instructor teaching my husband as we went round, he even tried a little trot. This centre is very proffesionally run and safety is a main priority for these guys and the way the run it, we will certainly come back and recommend to all our friends. The horses are in excellent condition to say how dry and barren it is and also not having any green fields in for the horses .
There is plenty of parking and they also have a public toilet and a refreshment bar.
I really hope that you continue and get busier with the COVID, as it was quite , you guys deserve it. Thank you for the amazing experience and the photos were great as well.

After it became a Catholic church in 1236, a Renaissance-style nave was added in the 17th century. Then take the train from Cordoba to visit Seville to enjoy plaza de Espana, royal Alacazar and cathedra. Flamingo show is a must.

Andalusian Magic 🪄
Came back from an amazing journey to Andalusia, the south of Spain. My favourite was Cordoba, as the mezquita blended elements of Islamic and Christian religions. I had never seen anything like that anywhere else in the world so far!
For 2024, I wish I could go back to Spain as I haven’t seen the architectural wonder of Alhambra in Granada yet!
