Magaluf Excursions: The Ranch Experience/Equestrian Experiences
While Magaluf’s landscape is paved with drunken revelers and passed out lushes, the countryside of Mallorca is all about sand, sea and sunshine. A great way of exploring the latter’s lovely landscape is galloping on a horseback or riding at full speed. Make friends with the horses, they’ll save you from embarrassment by dropping you in front of a giggling crowd.
There are so many options in Mallorca that people from Magaluf can opt for an all-out Wild West experience or just a tour through Mallorca. A lot of the places offer BBQ nights completed with freshly made sangrias and margaritas. Tons of tequila is available at the ranches’ drinking and dining experience.
The Caballos Bonanza VX is a place in Mallorca that’s close to Magaluf and best of all - it has plenty of horses who have been specifically trained to handle children.
While the Calvia Pony comes with quite a good reputation and they offer longer, intensive courses for people who take the hobby a little more seriously, Ranch Sebastian has a great selection of well-bred horses. Who are all extremely well-trained and come with pretty good looking handlers. A complete package, indeed.
Es Pas and Escola Equitcio Son Gual offer riding services to tourists looking for value for money and a good simple fun. No frills unless specially requested. But for people looking for a more fun, and a wilder time, Club Hipico San Jorge Sa Tapia is the place for you.
However, if an elite experience is what you’re looking for, then you should find directions to The Arabian Balear. They have good stables and horses of the best breeds. They even have some Arab horses, which are universally considered the most exquisite and friendly in the field.
But what all the clubs and their trainers have in common is that they’re all very experienced men and women who have trained their horses to perfection. They treat the noble creatures with love and respect, and in turn the horses treat the unfamiliar riders well too.
An extended, all-day experience is highly recommended, as this in many places includes a fun BBQ and potent tequila-based drinks. Square dancing, or what seems close enough, is also on the cards at night. Enchanting Moonlight and Sunset rides are also offered by many ranches.
